The Gentle A rt Of "Lifting" A s
Practied D The Mrin nesota Daily
Up in Minneapolis, the home of the University of Minnesota, is pub-
lished the Minnesota Daily. It is quite a commendable paper. Especially
worthy of notice are the editorials. One of them is quoted below, together
with another composition, both of which we offer without comment.
The Minnesota Daily reminds us a great deal of Dickens and his Artful
Dodger, who, you will remember, used to go around "lifting" handkerchiefs,
pocket-books, watches, and other trifles from the passers-by. Only the Art-
ful Dodger was clever. He never was caught in the act.

It has been said that the student
activities are not run by students in
the true sense of the word. If one is
a student in a university, he should
devote his time to study. That is what
he has come for and he ought not
have any time to spare for outside
work.
This is all very well. We do come
to college to learn and to study. We
hope to fit ourselves for our future,
and we think that college will give us

STUDENTS AND STUDENT
ACTIVITIES
It has been said that the student
activities are not run by students
who are of a sufficient scholastic
standing to warrant the honor. Furth-
ermore it has been said that the first
duty of every college man or woman
is study. According to such a state-
ment there would be no time for out-
side work.
This is all reasonably correct. We
do come to college to study. Most ofs
us are here to fit ourselves sanely and
securely for the future, and we trust
to our college to give us the necessary

growing in popularity during the last

music. Dancing lasts, 8:30-11:30,

UDAY, MARCH 21, 1919.
e Editor-Renaud Sherwood
But study is not everything. All
learning is not in books, and if a col-
lege man received nothing but a
bookish education he would find, upon
going out into the world, that regard-
ing centain matters he was at the bot-
tom of the ladder.
It is the friendships a man cultiv-
ates in college, it is the active interest
he takes in one enterprise or another,
some activity, that will count just as
much towards 'his future.;
Of course one may go too far and
participate in too many activities to
the detriment of his studies. Ex-
tremes are never good. But of two
students, one who does nothing but
study, and one who does not study
quite so much but has an outside
interest, the best chances are for the
latter.
Be a student first, but take part in
some activity,, too.
But study is not everything. All
learning does not come between two
covers of various sizes and materials.
If a college man received nothing but
"book learning" how pedantic and
away from actual life he would find
himself.
It is the friendships a man cultivates
in college; it. is the active interest
that he takes in one interest or anoth-
er regardless of his scholastic stand-
ing, provided that his mentality is suf-
ficient to keep him well above in all
his subjects, that will assuredly count
just as much toward his future.
Of course one may go too far and
participate in too many activities to
the detriment of his studies. Extremes
are always to be avoided. But of the
two students, one who does nothing
but study, and one who does not study
quite so much but has an outside in-
terest, the best chances are for the
latter.

ONCE AGAIN
Ince again the sun in its course
ches the vernal equinox, and spring
4 come. The days will continue to
longer, the nights shorter, the
ather warmer, and mankind lanquid

Iice again we wait for the robin's

grass to green, for the trees to
e again. We long for the great
doors that is just beginningto sug-
t itself.
)nce again our "fancy lightly turns
thoughts of-" canoeing, and long
Iks, and moonlit nights, and dreamy
.ernoons. The breezes coming
ough the open windows turn our
ughts away from everyday, to the
akening of Nature at the call of
ing.
)nce again we think of underclass-
Ln games, of caps and gowns,, and
ies, of mid-semesters and of spring
ation. We have had mild weath-
almost all winter, but that does
change the significance of the
gic day.

Spring Is Here
(By Dr. Tom Tovell)
Prelude
"Cheep. Cheep," singeth the sparrow,
The cow he sings from the slope,
Spring styles are cut rather narrow,
While there is life there is hope.
To the Muse I said, "Fanny, my dear,
Bring me my lyre, springtime' is
here."
Piece de Resistance.
Spring is here.
The turtle dove cooeth frim Juliet's
eave trough as she trimmeth last
winter's hat with spinach and
calla lilies.
Mrs. Murphy sigheth for rhubarb pie
and fly paper as she swatteth the
June bug on the lace curtain.
The hen layeth a fresh egg in the dog
house with ecclesiastical glee as
the landlord layeth the tin roof
over the pergola.
The water wagon gamboleth o'er the
bricksward and Corinna goeth
a-Maying with a pair of gum
boots and a lip stick.
The wind bhaketh the branches of the
horse chestnut tree and the rustic
shaketh the dew off the raspberry
shrubs.
The geese are honking in the verbena'
patch and the janitor doth the
lame duck with the ash can.
Alas, every rose bath its thorn, every
oyster hath its pearl.e
My grandmother's name was Pearl.
But she was not an oyster.
The day she fell down the back steps
I thought she was a sperm whale.
Whee! Spring is here.
I lave my brow with Sloan's Liniment
and continue.
The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the
lea.
I wind my Ingersoll slowly.
Time to stop.
Amen.
