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.

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.

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- dor rink kept in good. condition, as the Athletic association has promised the Coliseum will be, the healthful and fascinating ice sports should re- ceive their full measure of attention . f Ex-Half portion?

More than 150 pam- phlets of this literature have already been given out and there are still many students who desire to obtain the literature. The material was placed at the disposal of Dean Burs- ley by the director of the American consular service. The unusual interest exhibited in this particular phase of the depart- ment of State is thought to have its origin in the increasing attention be- ing shown by the world to interna- tional problems.
