Perhaps the most significant o these was made by the English rep- resentative concerning the importance which undergraduate ,activities con-, mand in this country.

The persistent violations, of the explicit rules laid down by; Palaeopitus give at least a suggestion that the sophomore class is not anxi- ous to go through with the fight; and the freshman by'an amazing display of poor judgment vitiate the moral advantage that was theirs through stricter adherence to the rules. The whole procedure, childish in the ex- treme, lends added color to an im- pression steadily becoming current that the fight is a nuisance anyway, and had best be abolished. The fresh- man and sophomores have done more in the past two days to strengthe this impression than could be accom- plished in a year by bored upper-class skeptics. Whatever the outcome today, a dis- tinct shadow has b en cast over the whole affair that cannot help having a serious effect on the future of thej custom. To those who have long argued against the picture this will be the crowning touch, and they can be expected now to press more aggres- sively for its abolition. Breaking fur- niture after getting in dormitory rooms by forcing the locks, spiritingI handcuffed freshmen out of town, they are. We do think highly of getting a settlement on money which other nations borrowed from us. If the American government will not relinquish its claim for Rhine ex- penses it at least can assert its free- (loin to deal with Germany without the intervention of any other country and without passing the payments through the reparations commission. If this is our affair with Germany it is ours alone. If we intend to in- sist upon this debt, and only this one, letting the French debt, the Italian debt, etc., go slide, then let's have the debtor in without asking the consent of other governments and without ty- ing ourselves up in any of their en- terprises. = I9lrljurr arrrru IrcIgiggIcIzrl ugIraIn nIIL DOROTHY B.

It will be used for national propaganda 4urposes, a use to which the motion picture is being, put with increasing frequency and effectiveness. The old age pension, as it will be exemplified here, is not a scheme forE the pauperization of the poor. Rather, it is in line with the excellent Moth- ers' Assistance Fund, which helps keep families together. The aged pen- sioners will receive not more than a dollar a (lay; less than this if they have any income of their ;own. It is the purpose of the law to make it possible for old men and women past seventy years of age and incapable of supporting themselves to live in modest sufficiency at home, instead of in institutions as wards of the State. It is always a melancholy sight to see an aged husband and wife, who' have spent perhaps fifty years to- gether, sundered by poverty in the last years of their lives, as they must be if they go to "the poorhouse." By and large, couples who have reach- ed the age of seventy years together deserve the brief bounty of the State for the days that are left to them. If, only to save the tears of parting shed by these dim old eyes, the Pension Fund will be worth all it costs to the taxpayers of Pennsylvania. TFilE U. S.
