Explaining the American stand
Lhrough the famous lines of Kipling,
"Help me to need no aid from men,
that I may aid such men as need,"
Mr. Harvey justified the attitude which
neverthess will be characterized
as exemplary of "Yankee indifference".
Always available as an arbitrator or
protector for a weak and worthy na-
tion, the United States lends aid
where it is due, but keeps above the
surface in turmoils which melt the
n'ranhood of the world into nothing-
ness.

responsibility on the instructor
Henceforth he must make his classes
interesting. At the end of the course
he will also have to prepare an exam-
ination determining less whether the
student has mastered his facts than
whether he has any ideas about them,
or about anything. Some young gen-
tlemen will never come to class at all,
but if they do not and can satisfy the
instructor in those two points, Prince-
ton is ready to admit that it is all
right. Common-sense sometimes
sounds alarmingly revolutonary.
SPEAKING OF LAW ENFORCEMENT
(The Chicago Tribune)
The Tribune has published a num-
ber of letters from angry people who
say this is a bad, lawless sheet. It,
is a bad, lawless sheet because it said
the people inChicago who wanted to
drink could not be kept from drinking
by the eighteenth amendment, the
Volstead law, Mayor Dever, and his
7,000 policemen. That's a fact now
and it seems as if it would continue
to be a fact.
many of these letters were from
downstate. They say The Tribune is
fostering disobedience of law. We no-
tice that the only law violation people
get very mad about is drinking.
There is a provision in the state
constitution which commands the leg-
islature to redistrict the state every
ten years. That provision is to safe-
guard the right of representation. That
right is the corner stone of the re-
public. The legislators swear to up-
hold the constitution.
We have asked this question before!'
and we'll ask it again of the angry
people who write to abuse us-Are you
mad because the rights in representa-
tive government of the people of Chi-
cago have been illegally restricted? Do
you think it a crime to nullify the con-
stitution and deprive citizens of this
state of representation in law making?
Have you supported men who were
false to their oath and who intended
to be false to their oath in the legis-
lature? Will you obey the law and give
the people of Chicago full represen-
tation? Do you refuse because you are
prohibitionists and as such willing to
disfranchise Americans who are not
prohibitionists? Is any law other
than prohibition sacred?
The downstate drys will exlflain
that the disfranchisement of Chica-
Germany was unwilling to pay. If
France will take the trouble to have
the German claims investigated, it
would clear up one more mystery
which is annoying the world. But
how those mysteries will multiply.

REWARD GOOD SCHOLARSHIP
The }action recently taken by the
Deans forthe "purpose of affording
more adequate recognition to students
who have distinguished themselves in
academic rather than extra-curricular
activities, is one that is worthy of
praise., Too often we carelessly over-
look the true workers of our univer-
sity. After tall, we come to college

who distinguish themselves should be
given special recognition.
True it is that those engaged in ex-
tr-curricular activities often produce{
results both satisfactory lnd benefi-
cial. Yet it is also true that thesez
persons are in the great majority of
cases, given ready recognition for
their work. The star athlete never
goes unrecognized, nor the class pres-
dent, nor the chairman of an import-
ant committee, yet it is also true that

Friends of H-azen S. Pingree, Jr., '98,
look forward to a wedding announce-!
ment upon his recovery from an at-{
tack of typhoid fever. It seems that
the young woman whose happinessf
most depends upon the result of the
illness is Miss Natalie Parsons, laugh-
ter of James B. Parsons of Detroit.
And yet in the last analysis are not
our students and scholars the mak-
ers of our university? Is it not they
who after having graduated, bring ad-
ditional fame and glory to their Alma
Mater? There are those who are of
the opinion that athletics make a un-
iversity, and unfortunately they are
