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.

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.

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 the star student and scholar is very little known.

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 mAny in number.
