FRATERNITIES MAKE PLANS TO
CARE FOR FRENCII WAR BiABIES
Greek letter societies all over they
country, are making plans for adopt-
ing French war babies. The scheme
was originally proposed by two
English women, who saw in this
method a means of taking care of the
many children in Fraice made or-
phans by the war.
Each fraternity now pays the sum,
of 10 cents a day for the support of its
protege during the war. This is sup-
plemented by a contribution of equal
amount from the French government.
*Over half of the 150,000 orphans have
already been taken care of in this
manner.

NEW "'TREE THOUGHT"
M~NE AT COLUMBiA
"CHALLENGE" ORGANIZED TO
STIMULATE FREE DISCUSSIONS
A31ONG STUDENTS.
"Challenge--a magazine organized
to stimulate the free discussion of
opinion among American students, to
the end that each American college
and university may become a con-
scious, informed and intellectual dem-
ocracy."
To those who noted with interest
and hailed with approval the estab-
lishment of a magazine at Columbia
for the free discussion of current prob-
lems by students in American univer-
sities, the first number of "Challenge"
is something of an enigma. The edi-
tors hppear to have made certain at
the outset that all moorings with past
and traditional lines of thought should
be severed, but the parting is not ac-
complished without a certain amount
of violence. The reader, progressing
from page to page, finds himself be-
wildered by astonishing candor on
subjects not often publicly reviewed.
In attitude the new publication is
decidedly rebellious, and herein lies
at once its greatest strength and weak-
ness. It were useless to expect poig-
nant problems to be handled with
gloved hands. Cautious generalizations
in regar to vital topics are not to be
tolerated by thinking men and women.
"Challenge," therefore, faces the dil-
emma which confronts, every "maga-
zine of opinion"-the apparent neces-
sity of choosing between super-radi-
calism on the one hand, and an in-
nocuous repetition of well-known plat-
itudes on the other. Ability to steer
an even course between the two is the
mark of the truly great exponent of
free thought.
The first number of "Challenge"
tends toward cynicism. One looks in
vain for an expression of helpful,
constructive optimism. But the colle-
giate world will await the coming
numbers with no less interest because
the current edition appears to anathe-
matize a trifle too promiscuously. If
sweeping denunciations induce a live-
ly discussion of live problems, its mis-
sion will perhaps have been accom-
plished.
The articles in the March number
are well written, and the general style
most commendable. Art, poetry, dra-
ma, politics, economics and feminism
are among the topics treated, with
special attention given to academic
and social relations between faculty
and students.
The noise and commotion of this
opening gun would indicate that the
battle for free speech in the American
university is on at last, that it is a
real battle, and that no quarter may
be looked for on either side. As the
first to enter the field in support of
his rights, "Challenge" deserves the
support of every wide-awake, progres-
sive collegian.

Study Means. Stupidity
unless the body is developed in a way to supply the
mental keenness and alertness that are necessary to
success in every line of college endeavor. Top-heavy
college men are the bane of business. Brain and

Shredded Wheat
is the best balanced ration for reaching the highest
efficiency in study or play. Contains all the rich,
body-building material of the whole wheat grain made
digestible by steam-cooking, shredding and baking. It
is the favorite food of athletes because it supplies the
greatest amount of muscle-building material with the
least tax upon the digestive organs. It is on the train-
ing table of nearly every college and university of the
United States and Canada. Its delicious freshness
and crispness will tempt the most jaded appetite. Eat
it for breakfast with milk or cream, or for any meal
in combination with fruits.

Friday afternoon at - the Armory by
the soph lit class. Shook's orchestra
will furnish the music, and it will

the occasion, and plans are being
made to elaborate the usual afternoon
dances that have been held by the
class in the past, which have proved
so successful. Dancing will be from
2:00 to 5:00 o'clock.
