highly as he was educated himself, and he wants to

"And in another' way the question appears. A
public man at Commencement last June said that if
you underpay any body of men in the cdmmunity
they will be discontented, and the class that you
cannot afford to have discontented is the class that
teaches your youth.
"We must have sufficient teachers to enable the
greatest among them to give up their classes for a
year or two and write books, to make permanent
what they know, and not let their knowledge die
with them.
"We are at a crisis in the history of our country,
where the question to be determined is not whether
we are in danger from a foreign power, but whether
the American people will rise to the height which
they can rise to and be one of the greatest peoples
which the world has ever known."
This agitation toward paying professors more
liberally and thus making the teaching profession
more attractive is daily gaining momentum. The
country at large, as well as the teachers themselves,
is. beginning to recognize the fact that inadequate
and unfair salaries will not attract into the pro-
fession men of the highest ability. The problem
has, indeed, become one of national importance
and, as President Lowell states, one which con-
terns our position among nations.

THE UNION DANCE FLOOR
It seems incredible that college, students should
be entirely reckless and often wanton in the man-
ner in which they use property. and ,facilities which
are placed at their command. Probably the Union
has been the victim of more than the usual number
of deprecatory acts which are practiced upon Uni-
versity buildings or perhaps from the prominence
of its articles of furniture and decoration these
criminal, acts have been more noticeable.
The latest work of havoc wrought at the Union
which undoubtedly has been done innocently and
without thought is the burning of holes in the ball
room floor by 'cigarette butts dropped by the danc-
ers The surface which has been polished and
waxed until it almost approaches perfection is de-
formed by these holes and spots which in some.
places form ugly looking patches. This has been
noticed and remarked upon by almost every vis-
itor who has inspected the dance hall. In fact such
things often catch the eye before any of the decora-
tive features of a place are seen.
Such careless disregard for public, property has
been said to be characteristic of the American peo-
ple but the Union belongs to the students and any
mar or blemish on its decorative schere detracts
that much from effects which it is planned will be
produced. Smoking rooms have been provided for the
dancers and there is no excuse for such destruc-
tion of property either innocently or wantonly.

Watson, the Needle
Sherlocko had just finished the dance with the
fair young thing. "Aha," remarked the detective,
"I see that you are married. The young thing
pleased by the Sincerity of the compliment shook
her head. "No, she remarked sadly, . "you are
wrong there. But whatever made you think that
I was married?"
The great detective somewhat nonplussed paused
a moment before replying."Wliy I thought you were
married because you tried to .do the leading the
minute we started dancing." The young thing was
lost in soulful adoration of such sagacity for a
moment and then she replied, "Ah, that's because
I've been taking a man's part at these Women's

league dances."
