Not long ago he spoke e state of Kentucky on his pet theories regard- he subject of evolution, and the direct out- th of that speech is the introduction of a bill I Kentucky house to forbid, under heavy pen- the teaching of evolution, or the use of books ig with the subject of evolution, in any school rted by the state., ghtly more than a year ago, Mr. Bryan ap- d on the platform of Hill auditorium, and, :ing on Darwinism, waxed hot and sarcastic, irew down upon his head an avalanche of ism for the.very evident absurdity of his state- s. Mr. Bryan showed by that speech that he ot undestand therDarwinian theory, and that s i'gnorant of its real ipprt; yet some of the emen of the Kentucky legislature have swal- I his-harrangue, hook, line, sinker and pole ave prepared a bill aiming to abolish the study oultion entirely in their state schools. .se who have introduced the bill have made selves ridiculous to say the least, nd, if the e carries, will have held up their state to be laughing stock of the world". Furthermore, eir action they have exhibited their utter ig- ce of what the study of evolution really means, eave made plain their childlike willingness to >w; -the arguments of one who is capable of ing about big words in an oratorical fashion. tie members of the Kentucky legislature are g fools of themselves, and, worse, yet, bid d prevent the full spread of -education in the by their thoughtless and baseless action. From tuatioi before us, it would seem that, if our legislators are to be selected for political rea- rather than for brain power, some definite :>ught to be taken to remove from their hands particle of control as regards higher educa- trust, however, that the Kentucky legislature whole is broadminded enough to resist the i efforts of a gullible few. The man who never tended a university certainly has no business ermining the policy of such an institution. CRITICS AND CRITICISM persons may be critics - nay, oft must be - were well to remember that criticism must be ;ent and just if the critic is not to merit even serious censure. Criticism may not be mere nding, nor mere disparagement ; and even it is thoughtfully conceived and justly de- the spirit of its delivery may not be disre- >ecting written criticism, apart from the ss flow of editorials, to which the foregoing rules apply, are departments of activity - sic, art, literature, the theater - which re- pecial treatment by more or less technically minds. In these fields extensive experience iturity of judgment are firstly requisite, be- rhich the personality of the critic must give t measure to the value and popularity of his work. His reputation is made or ruined by himself, for which reason he is commonly allowed great lati- tude for personal expression. It may be well, how- ever, to consider what may reasonably be expected of him from the standpoint of the average reader. In the first place readers may expect that the critic shall possess a wholesome. sympathy with the situation and circumstances of the object which he is attertpting to interpret, as well as with those who presumably require some suggestive interpre- tation of it. "How can a write~r adequately inter- pret the activity of his age," Matthew Arnold in- quires, "when he is not in sympathy with it ?" "After all," writes Edard J. 'Briep, "the purpose of criticism is to read and interpret sympathetically the heart of man to himself.". Readers may expect, in the second place, that the critic's persuasion and personality shall be compan- ioned by a tolerable approximation to logic. "Crit- icism is a form of argumentation, a method of comparison with univeray standards; not a series' of loosely used deductions from comparisons with personal predilections." This is the declaration of Prof. William T. Brewster, of Harvard.I It. would require an essay adequately to reat so brpad and important a topic. Hence resort is here made to authorities whose words are at once clearer and more convincing than ours alone could be. Of course, many types and styles of criticism are de- sired, corresponding to the numerous classes of readers who may need them or favor them. "To each reader, thn, his own critic," writes Prof. Ger- trude Buck, of Vassar, "and this critic often for only a limited period of his development." Variety and originality are to be welcomed, and no one should be discouraged from making what- ever personal appeal he will. It is believed, how- ever, that the two fundamental qualities of criti- cism above set forth cannot be ignored without for- feiting the respect and support of thoughtful read- ers. Thomas Carlyle - certainly a picturesque enough critic, yet one to whom all men accord en- during respect - declared sympathy to be the first essential towards insight. And criticism without insight is, of course, not criticism at all, but only so much burlesque. The r-egistrar's office has made the pleasant little announcement that no changes in elections will be permitted after the opening of the second semes- ter. All of which prompts a sage remark: Choose, but choose wisely. With the prospect before us of writing examina- tions in ice-boxes, we might remind campus janitors that classrooms unfortunately are not built on the vacuum'bottle plan: they won't stay warm for- ever. Various antics of some gentlemnen we might name would seem to confirm the theory of evolution to which they so seriously object.' Good-bye, good luck, and stay eligible. ~ 'fie Telescop e They Used to Be Ike Delehancy Ignatius Fish, Was as hard-boiled a "stude" as you ever could wish.

Haynes, "in the reat metropolitan district there Is an .nsidious, clever, unpatriotic, false wet dropaganda under way that has as its jbject the delusion of the American jeople into the belief that the prohi- AItion law is a failure, that it was slipped over' on them, that it is un-* popular, and that it is not -enforced .. mnd never can be." All of these asser- don, Mr. Haynes says, are false, but .o the deception of dmany they''are clr- culated industriously by "thirty paid Irganizations," all working' to bring about the abrogation or nullifycion f the amendment. Whether Mr. Haynes is right or not is to his thirty organizations, there i ,'o doubt that a good many people who are not paid talk about prohibition lust about as 'they would itfthe pro- paganda he describes existed and was working efficiently. They are glibI with confident assertions that drink-a ing has increased under prohibition and that there is, more abuse of al- cohol than ever. before.. That they.U know anythingaboutrgeneral condl *ions or as to the state of public senti- ment is shown by nothing they say and is ;more than doubtful, but observers who try to see the situation as it is will incline to the belief that prohibit- ion is not so much of a failure as its - enemies insist or so much of a success is its friends claim. That it has made a big change for 'he better in industrial circles is the verdict of all employers of labor. That much seems to be a certainty among all the uncertainities, and it is not a little. } Members: Wat Abb Rox The best combi ever mumi EXAM PARTY K(NEDY"8 ety Ircbe Dane' stra kins - Piano :burg Cornet - Saxoph ne Darling Zierer Jury Egeler Sa nation of dance heard in Ann A Packard Academy Friday, Feb. 3rd, 1922 Tickets at Graham's and Wahr's Dancing 9 to 1 o'clock While Willie Simplicitus Faversham Tittle Would run at the sight of a girl, big or little.
