co-operation of th, much-maligned

this is only as it seems. The sit-
)n is far from settled unless the
ent body give the plan its whole-
ted support. Several years ago
milar plan was placed in opera-I
which survived only in the mean-j
ss statement which has been onE
application cards regarding the
ring section in the south stand.-
only reason for its failure, ac-
ing 'to the athletic association, was
complete lack of interest nani-
d by male students in such aj
the extent to which we emphasize the
importance and position of the fair
sex in our oldest traditions.!
"MAKE hASTE SLOWLY"
A word that has been used to frigh-1
ten the "infants" of all ages within'
the past few generations is the word
socialism. This bogey, like all others,
has conveyed an extremely .,vague
notion as to the real character ofl
the thing. As a tact, even college
professors have 'been, fo4nd whodo
not seem to have a clear idea aA to
what the term "socialism" actually
signifies. n
Socialisinreally is no modern in-
vention. It is as old as tChristianiity,
as old as religion-yes, as old in truth,
as mankind itself. But as with many
other beneficial doctrines, it 'has'often
been used to "make a trap for' fools."
What, then, is socialism? Funda.
mentally, it is the hope which springs
eternal in every human breast thatI
some day, in some way, the economic
order will be such that every humanl
being will have the advantage of a
decent living. Karl Marx, the founder
of modern theoretical socialism, be-
lived that the only effective means of
attaining this result was state control
of all industries and natural re-
sources. This doctrine in more or:
less similar form was adopted by men
such as Ferdinand La Salle, Fourier,
John Owen, Liebknecht, and others;
and by such groups as the Social De-
mocrats of Germany and. France,..the.
English Labor Party, and the Russian[
Communists. Where these men> -acid
these groups have differed has been
as to the extent to which this doc-
trine should be carried out, and as
to what means its advocates should
use in attaining it. The radical or
left wing of the various groups has
always insisted that the medium of.
the ballot box was altogether too
slow and too far beyond their con-
trol; and that therefore the only sure
way of "destroying the tryanny of
capitalism" was by way of "direct
action," or revolution. The modier-
ates, on the other hand, including
Karl Marx himself, hoped that the. de-
sired result could be attained without1
bloodshed, 'destruction, and terror,
through educating the masses in thej
socialistic doctrines, by showing them I
that there was still left one type
of serfdom, and that it was in their
own power to change the existing.ed-j
onomic order by electing such men
to governmental offices as would fin-
ally and gradually bring about the
necessary reforms, in the respective
lands.
There are many reasons which lead
a rational and unbiassed person to
feel that the moderate view, for the
attainment of socialism is the.- only
feasible one. Perhaps the chief rea-
son lies in the inherent conservation j

CAMPUS OPINION
BE A LEADER
To The Editor:-
Being interested in the Fresh Air
Camp, I would like to express an
opinion, borne of experience, of that
institution. My connection with the
camp actually began last summer,
when I served in the capacity of a
leader, but my interest has been sin-
cere since the founding of the camp
three years ago. From a temporary
site accommodating less than a hun-
dred boys, and having no real con-
veniences, the camp has grown to
accommodate five hundred boys, and
170 acres of the most beautiful camp-
ing ground in, the state, with more
than a mile and a half of shore line.
One permanent building has been
erected and more are to follow this
summer. The camp possesses a radio
outfit, four rowboats, an outboard
boat motor, and 'two cars, besides a
library and complete sporting goods
stock. These are some of the physical
advantages. But these, I should say,
are the minor attractions of the in-
stitution. Anyone would I think, be
sold on the camp proposition as a
summer's recreation after merely seo-
ing the grounds, but I should like
to speak of the invisible factor which
makes the camp more than just a'
resort.
It is easy to imagine the feeling
that a "greenf" leader feels when the
first load of leathernecked kids ar-
rives at the camp. The very bottom
falls,out ofhis stomach, so to speak,
and by the time a- hundred . arab ,
laden with niscellaneous bundles are
swarming' ver the lot one wonders

Art-Lovers Notice
.
Dear Jase:-
ONE OF HIS BROTHERS is all out
of joint in yesterday's article to the
effect that I had given up the pen.
I merely told you that POISON IVY
would 'have its last time as a nom-de-
plume. See? I'm cured of POISON
IVY. I've, had enough of that name.
I am looking for .a better one. But
as,. fo- giving 'up poetry-as long as
"bear' rhymes with "rare" and "straw"
with "raw?'I shall continue to write
poetry.
POISON IVY
SIf the exa nis are luring your re -
gular contributions from their line of
duty you may run this poem. If, on
the other hand, your cohorts are
maintaining, as all perfect ladies and
true gents should, an aloofness from
such in-consequental distractions you
may scatter these lines, after the man-
nor'of Shelly, to the various winds:

ina,
ODE TO A DYING LETTUCE LEAF
Spent, darkening sprig 6f life,
Whither now?
Palid streaks twixt blackened splot-

Whither now?

orously against a resonable tax levy,
how, much more so will they growl
and show their teeth at any attempt
towards wholesale confiscation of pri-
vate propetry by the state? The fail-
ire of such an attempt in Russia is
a vivid argument as to the futility,
of a sudden attempt. Prof. Robinson
has well summed up the matter when
he .says: "We are just a few days,
away from our caudal-appendaged an-
cestors. 'It was only yesterday that
man ate his brother and clubbed his
neighbors into insensibility." Only
an hour ago or so, we may add, did
the rabble crucify a certain Nazar-
ene for his socialistic preachings. Let
us, therefore, wait awhile before we
hoist the flag of human altruism upon
the staff. The mark of the naked
caveman is still upon us.
