SMYTHE READS-OR TRIES TO
iBnythe is one of those unusual in-
dividuals who actually read their
rhetoric assignments. He justifies him-
self by saying that they are some-
times worth reading and often tinged,
with humor-and anyhow, it is inter-
esting to see what sort of thing pro-
fessors have a weakness for.
But even Smythe's curiosity will not
be sufficient to keen him in righteous;
paths if he is compelled to do his
work in the rhetoric library much
longer. He grows emotional in speak-
ing of it. The ghosts of a thousand
dead colds leer at him from the dus-
ty racks until he longs for clean, col
air, heavy footsteps wrack ancient
stairs until his nerves cry out for
peace, faculty members converse to-
gether in funerealy hushed voices or
arouse a troop of dismal echoes by
their cautious chuckling, until Smythe
wishes he had the courage of Everett
True.
Smythe likes best to read under a
mellow light before a gently crackling
fire. He doesn't mind a little noise, or
a little stir about him, as long as it is
frank and'healthy, and not too bois-
terous. It's the half-subdued, tiptoe--
ing, consciously hushed but irritably
intruding noises that destroy his abil-
ity to concentrate. Smythe says the
rhetoric library should be kept abso-
lutely quiet, or the books should be
moved to' a room in the main library.
They do little good where they are.
MORE PRODUCTIVE POWER
Mr. Steinmetz, king of electrical wiz-
ards of the world, has said that if the
available water supply of New York
state were harnessed the country
would not have to use any coal. The
statement, aside from being a mental
relief to those who fear the ultimate
exhaustion of our coal supply, gives
evidence of the vast amount of work
nature could do for us if we were but
to take advantage of her seemingly
endless reserve, of potential capacity
for doing work, a never tiring flow of
energy, many times more powerful
and steadfast than human faculty for
production.
The peoples of today work no harde
nor more zealously than those of the
pi e-Industrial Revolution era - it is
very probable that they do not work
so hard - yet the least blessed in
material gain of them live more lux-
uriously than the lords and barons of
old, they who reaped the returns of
hundreds of laborers under their po-
tentate. We have harnessed nature
to our machines, and she has made
possible a higher mode of living and
a return of a thousand fold for our
efforts.
But the results are merely 'a sam-
ple of what may be accomplished an
the amount of human effort that may
be saved - and after all the aim of
progress is to get increasingly more
out of life than one puts into it in per-
sonal effort - if more of nature's ever
accommodating power is utilized.

a rule, limited to formal matters con--
cerning one particular course. Per-
haps, the most effective manner of
fostering the desired personal com-
munion and one that has already been
practised advantageously by certain
professors on the campus is for fac-
ulty men to invite students to their I
homes for informal talks under condi,{
tions most favorable to freedom of ex-
pression.
The student gains much from-these
informal talks that it is practically
impossible for him to derive from a
class. The professor is merely one of
the group and the human element'
present in him of which the student
may not have been aware before is
brought to light. The mature view-
point of the former serves as a guide
to the latter's mental outlook which
is apt to be somewhat narrow. But
most of all, students profit immeasur-
ably by becoming intimately acquaint-
ed with a well developed personality.
Because of the success the plan
has met with in the few instances it
has been carried out, and the advan-
tages enumerated above which appear
to be linked with it, it might be ad-.
visable that this custom be adopted
more generally on the campus. A

ment of the project; new interest
should be awakened.
Many schools have laid a great deal
of stress on hockey, skiing ,and skat-
in, and Dartmouth has been famous
for years for her winter carnivals.
Now Wisconsin is awakening to the
possibilities of such an affair and hasj
engaged special coaches for skiing
and skating. Michigan, while not
given the advantage of long cold
spells, has enough cold weather anat
heavy snow to afford much vigorous
exercise, and with an excellent in-
