THE PRESS CLUB FAILURE
Last year's Press club convention of state edi-
tors was an i1nqualifled success. Most of tht 150
editors in attendance le l well pleased with their
experience. This year, - spite of the favorable
impression made by the 3rst convention, the edi-
tors did not attend.
tOne editor claimed that the reason for non-at-
tendance was two-fold: the convention was not ad-
vertised sufficiently nor far enough in advance and
tile selection of the convention days was unfortiu-
nate in that the meetings started upon the day when
the country weeklies are published, Thursday.
There is a Iere possibility that the editors thought
there were to be too m-ny theorists on the pro-
gram. If this is the case it is regrettable because a
little theory-would not go amiss in the average
newspaper office where theory and ideals are all
too often sacrificed needlessly to practicality.
The prime necessity to making the neeting a suc-
cess is large attendance by the editors. Perhaps
another year it will be possible to hold the meet-
ing earlier in the year, say during the football sea-
son on a big game weep-end so as to provide the
visitors with some pleasure interspersed with their
business, although it is regrettable that this seems
necessary. More advertisng at an earlier date and
a larger proportion of t;lks by the editors them-
selves might ie drawing cards. A new selection of
the convention days would doubtless make attend-
ance much -naore convenient for the editors, say
from Thursday evening to Saturday evening.
If these measures are reasonable they should I
tried out. If not, others should he evolved. The
association is too pregnant with possibilities to be
allowed to di, of inanition.

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1920.
Night Editor-RENAUD SHERWOOD
/KNOW- YOUR U'NT ERSITY
The first chair of Science and the Art of Teach-
ig in the United States was founded at Michigan
rnder the direction of Prof. William Harold
ayne, who wrote five authoritative books on educa-
on and published translations of as many others.
GIVE THE STUDENT HIS SHARE
"This week's index number based on the prices
er pound of thirty-one articles used for food shows
loss of twenty-five and a half per cent from the
umber of the like week last year," declared the
ovember issue of Bradstreet's Journal of Finance
id Political Economy, which goes on to say that
holesale food prices are the lowest in three and
half years.
Why, then, are Ann Arbor boarding houses
uarging from ten to twenty per cent more for food
tan they'did after their last year's advances?
Where does this difference between a twenty-five
r cent decrease in raw materials and a fifteen per
nt increase in selling prices go? The students
ve as yet received no benefit from the big break
iood prices that has taken place since the mid-
e of last summer, and there is too much "velvet"
xmewhere. t
Part of the difference, of course, may be laid
l the increased cost of gas, rent, coal, laundry,
d the other elements of "overhead," but when
te increase in overhead is pro-rated over two to
ae hundred boarders, it gives no justification for
e discreperlcy between the movement of the
holesale food market and the eating house rates
Ann Arbor.W
Just who is feathering hs nest - whether the
holesaler who sells in Ann Arbor, the retailer, or
e boarding house proprietor - is hard to say;
it. if the proprietors.of the eating places are not
aring in the reductions, they should take action
r the benefit of their patrons.
Retail cuts have already been made, however.
>r example, the price of potatoes is only a little
ore than half what it was at the same time last
ar, coffee of a certain brand has gone down from
rty-seven cents in January to thirty-nine cents
ts in the prices of nearly all kinds of meats have
en made, flour by the barrel is forty per cent less
an it was when at its highest point and twenty
:r cent less than a year ago, and both sizes of
ead have gone down two cents a loaf. It is also
ie that in many cases the boarding house deals
rectly with the wholesaler, thus saving a large
are of the retailer's profit.
The price of food is the prime factor in deciding
e cost of board in Ann Arbor. Besides being by
r. the most important material, it is used as the
rrency with which most of the help is paid. The
e dollar increases given a few cooks are insig-
icant when compared with the saving made
-ough paying waiters food that costs less.
With prices tobogganing all over the country it is
ne that students be given their share of the bene-
s in the form of lower board rates.
TH1E 1HONOR SYSTEM
(From the Mir'nesota Daily)
The University of Mir,..esota five years ago ini-
tiated into its curriculum what is known as "The
Honor System." By placing the student body on
its honor during, examinations, a certain trust was
given it which can never be violated. It Evas a
ttep toward a larger, fairer, more thoroughly or-
ganized university. High school was left behind,
and the student body entered the portals of woman-
hood and manhood, toward life's realities, which
are based on honor and trust. If one cannot be
trusted to do the right, the honorable thing, respect
is shattered.
Possibly a little explanation of the honor systen
would be of benefit to every student. "
T. The one giving help is as guilty as the one
receiving it.
2. Failure to report one who is cheating places
you in a dishonorable position.
Such are the two-fold duties of the Honor Sys-
tem. To violate these obligations is to forfeit your
riiht to be considered in every sense a part of the
University of Minnesota.

HAT man doesn't like his pipe? There's nothing whets
your smoke desires like seeing a good pipe lying around.
Because. you know that in it is the only real smoke satisfaction.
Your appetite will be doubly whetted if it is a W D C, because in
W D C Pipes all the sweetness and mellowness of the genuine
French briar is brought out by our own special seasoning process.
Then, too, W D C Pipes are good to look at. The designs are
pleasing and workmanship perfect. You'll agree with us that our
craftsmen are accomplishing their purpose -to make pipes that
are without peers in all the world. Ask any good .dealer. Be
