The periodical room which is possibly the most frequented part of the entire building with the per- haps exception of the tap room is in a perpetual state of disorder. The papers and magazines are never on the racks which are provided for ther. What is more, it is almost im- possible to find such papers when one wants them. We find them strewn all over the floor, half torn. It appears to me that if the Union has zany pride in the appearance of its building, it ought to see that this state of affairs is not allowed to continue for it certainly detracts from the ap- pearance of the place. Why can't the Union see that such disorder is stop- tp ped' J. P. E. ;,, t I i li I i 1 I i' I L AST EDITION OF H-F45X'A N S 0 NG I B O0K nO TH STORES I.

Sanzenbacher Clifford Mitts Ralph LIewright Philip Newall FRIDAY JANUARY 19, 1923 r Night Editor-HOWARD A. DONAHUE, T1Eiii FACULTY MAY HELP . Jpst one week remains for juniors and seniors in the literary college to decide whether or not they desire their final examinations to be taken under the honor system. Because of the apparent lack of any fixed stand- ards of conducting examinations atI present, it is deemed imperative to as- certain to what extent the honor sys-j tem will be responsive to public opin-! ion. Seemingly, the only manner in1 which this can be done is through the co-pperation of the faculty in taking a vote . on it, especially in coursesj open only to upper-classmen. Because a class does not on its own initiative hand in a signed petitionI to the professor asking for the honor system is not necessarily indicative of the fact that a majority of students in the class do not want it. It may merely mean that no one student orf group of students has sufficient time1 or i, enough inspired to get up a pe- tition and circulate it around theI class. If the professor were to take an oral or written vote as to how the class wanted the examination con-j ducted be might find a good many, if not a majority, in favor of the honor system. To install the honor system in the literary college unless it were sub- servient to student opinon would be a nistak e. But the laxity of the pres- ent method of handling examinations is the strongest argument for giving this system a fair trial. The faculty may play its part in seeing to it that every upper-classman who wants an honor examination is able to get one. ,SELECTING 'COURSES One criticism of the modern uni- versity is that the student is givenj too much leeway in selecting his courses. But if he goes about this task conscientiously in an effort to take the subjects which will best pre- pare him for his life's work and help him to secure the fund of generalI AFTER GRADUATION As archaic theories in regard to the various sciences have been replaced by new ones, so have former theories of education been superseded by more modern and up-to-date ideas. No long- er is education regarded as a process which stops when the individual leaves school, 'but one which is con- tinous and unending as long as there is life. Students in the University who are intent on entering the business or professional worlds, particularly the latter as it requires special train- ing, will do well to take cognizance of this fact. Many of the leading doctors of the country go abroad every five or six years to familiarize themselves with1 the latest developments in the medi-I cal profession from a foreign stand- point. Able lawyers and successful jprofessional men in general continue their thirst for knowledge long after they have departed from the scholar-i ly atmosphere which pervades our institnions of learning. One way in which this is done is by reading the more progressive magazines whichI cover the particular field of endeavorI the individual is folloiwng. On the other hand there are count- less men who think that their periodI of acquiring new information ends when they receive their diplomas. For a while they may be successful. But soon others with new ideas enter the field, and those who have nothing to learn are relegated to the back- ground. Unless there is a re-awaken-j ing they are apt to become hopeless old fogies. Among the graduates of the Uni- versity every year are hundreds of students who have prepared to enter 1-ln vr ious rinf'nns. -i-ne. goo., IT is a strange thing how some guys I do not find university life to be the get the reputation of elysium of their dreams.
