Senior Sing is held until the week fol-
lowing Swing-Out. Since there are noa
attempts made to out-guess the
"weather man," a rainy evening simp-
ly means dispensing with a Sing.
A plan, probably entirely feasible,
would be to begin the Sings soon after
Spring vacation, thereby making pos.
sible the holding of five or six o
them rather than two or three as is
now the case. In addition some pro-
vision for shelter in the event of rain'
might be provided, some campus audi-
torium being used in this case. The
outdoor feature of the Sings is of
course the most attractive one, but
an indoor Sing in bad weather, held;
in Hill Auditorium, for example,
would be preferable to the complete
postponement of the event.
This tradition is significant to all
classes of the University, but for the
Senior class it bears an unusually,
vital significance. If it is worth pre-'

Soc: Thee-the aggzregation referred'

River conference had passed resolu-

hers and prominent Evanstonians had
voiced their approval of Northwest-

had joined in his defense. All of
these groups had spoken. But--if we
judge the president right, and we
think we do-the group that the pres-
ident wanted most to hear from was1
still officially silent.
Yesterday that group formally, and
informally, broke out from under theI
spell of tragedy and mystery, and its
first action was unreserved and un-
qualified support of the president.

'I,
Throughout the article a hearty en-
dorsement of the action of Princeton,
tUniversity in introducing the so-called
"Oxford system" is implied. "Spoon-
fed" education is a mistake, says thri
article', and it further states thax
students ;o educated, never being
~'called to assume any real responsl-
bility, cannot; be expected to step in
and make good from the very start
when they enter the outside world.
Educators in increasing numbers
seem to be impressed with the idea
of putting more responsibility on stu-
dents during their junior and senior
years and of insisting upon special-
:,iation and coicentration on some par-
ticular field of work during these lat-
ter two -years at college.
The deficiency most stressed in our
present system is that students are
not given enough responsibility to de
velop their latent power of shoulder-
ing such weight. Here, indeed, is 'a
weakness that is certainly needful
of remedial treatment. The student
who drifts through four years in an
attempt to get a broad education is
likely to do more "drifting" than i
consistent with his needs. He attends
large classes, in some of which he i

A business man recently visiting in an Iowa city asked a

prosperity of three factories which had grown rapidly. "We
have an advertising club here," the banker said, "and through
an exchange of information in the club, and at State and
National advertising conventions, the owners of those fac-
tories, each of whom started with little capital, learned how
to establish demand for their products-and we all know
that the finding of markets is the real problem of business.
These factories have learned to advertise with profit."
The business man who does not know the business-build-
