* graduate must plead inexperience. But when it
comes to such vast questions as the peace treaty, in
which the experience and age of a mere life-time
carry no significance, he is quite ready to place his
opinion alongside of his neighbor's with the antic-
ipation that it will receive due consideration.
THAT FIRE PERIL
Just why the University has neglected, despite
years of ever-recurring protest, to place fire escapes
on University hall and other campus buildings, has
not yet been revealed. Any observer of the nar-
row crowded corridors in Mason hall and South
wing must be aware of the danger of catastrophe.
Authorities must know how slowly the four floors
of the old structure are necessarily emptied by the
only means of egress, the cramped wooden stair-
ways. When these facts are considered, it is diffi-
cult to understand why the matter should go with-
out remedy any longer.
"hen the simplicity of providing safety is con-
sidered, continued neglect appears still more un-
worthy of such an institution as this. A fire escape
at the cast end of each of the four corridors in
the two wings, or one halfway between corridors
in each wing, should solve the trouble in University
hall. Unless the building is structurally unfitted to
support the fire escapes-which might lay the ad-
ministration open to a still more serious ,charge-
it is certainly time for action.
If it is impossible to secure funds for such pro-
tection either 'through special appropriation or
from the general budget, at least the students, whose
lives are daily jeopardized 'by lack of such protec-
tion in various campus buildings, should be told the
reason for delay.
Factories whose management is notorious for
its backwardness in every other respect are volun-
tariJy providing fire escapes as a first requisite and
a duty to those who work for them. The Univer-
sity's position will not be enviable if, in the face
of reiterated protests, it continues to lag behind
standards accepted by industrial plants, and per-
mits this fire menace to continue.

STUDENTS MAY SUBMIT
2 Dg P, PAR PLANK
Young voters, both men and wom-
en, of the United States are to be
given a chance to contribute to the
Republican party platform in the com-
ing campaign, according to announce-
ment sent out by the Republican Na-
tional committee. A contest has been
organized, and the person submitting
the best suggestion for the platform
will receive $6,000. Second prize will
be $3,000 and third prize $1,000.
The idea of the contest is that of
Truxton Beale, former American min-
ister to Persia, who offered the priz-
es. The Republican National commit-
tee, in accepting, urged the active co-
operation of the younger men and
women of the country, both in the
contest and in increasing the popular
participation in the coming election.
Judges will be Dr. David Jayne Hill,
Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, and the
Hon. Albert J. Beveridge. The con-
test is open to young men and women
under 25 years of age. A signed state-
nent of age must accompany the
manuscript, of which four copies must
be made. Only one copy will be
signed.
Manuscripts must be written on one
side of the paper, not exceeding 6,000
words, be in the judges' hands by
March 31, 1920, and be addressed to
Walker Blane Beale Contest, Divi-
sion of Young Voters, Republican
National Committee, Washington, D.
C. Announcement of winners will be
made prior to the opening of the Re-
publican National convention in 1920.

Our Daily Novelette
Suddenly there was a scattering all along the
street. Curious heads were poked from windows
to watch this gruesome sight. Down the street
came a dog, people fleeing before him. His tongue
protruded from his mouth-a white froth was vis-
iblle on his jaws. The sight of a mad dog is enough
to strike terrdr to the bravest heart.
II'
A man was pursuing the dog. Yes, some cour-
ageous soul was literaly rushing in where heroes
feared to tread. It was indeed an edifying sight to
see a being who could so rise above fear that he
was willing to endanger his life in an effort to save
th- lives of others. The hearts of the onlookers
went out to this dauntless soul ; none there were
who were not touched by his act of heroism.
III
,The man at last seeing that pursuit was useless
stopped. The crowd with loud cries of approval
and approbation gathered around the hero. But our
modest hero seemed unmindful of the plaudits of
the crowd. Indeed, like all truly great men, he
seemed rather adverse to being rendered slavish'
homage in public. As he strode throu h the crowd
he muttered, "If I ever catch that dog swiping cream
puffs from my bakeshop again I'll kill him."
