IEDITORIAL COMMENT I SiThniVEMini) Alma college, an institution spon- sored .by the ,klan, as established. t- self in New Jersey, just a short di-t tance from Princeton. Its president,: *1lma ;white,- in a ;eet iWterview for the Princetonian, expressed great confidence that the principles of the ,1t1 n which till now have only been embraced by the uneducated would now. make great strides in the unier- sities ;of the country and draw over, to thteir side large numbers of the Btu-1 dent bodies.. At Harvard, two un- dred students are said to be enrolled already. The foundation of our democracy has. been threatened from time to time i ;the past by natin-wide move- mpents but the sane larger portion of American citizens has always acted as a bulwark upon which these move- ments broke without doing any last-' lng""damage The"American college student belongs by right among the citizens who form that bulwark. His training should . prepare him to look squarely at questions like those of the Ku Klux Klan and decide them fairly on- the basis of their merits and wth- out emotion. The Ku Klux Klan is founded on a li.Its originators, while claiming to uphold the democracy on paper, vio- lated that delaration in principle w~hen they used illegal means to pro- mote their schemes. %onsiderations of this kind determn Dine on which side of the question per- 0ons ,f.

Hger graceful arms, l-ike trailing tulle, Hung limply at her side.. B1ehind her hair, like bashful stars, I saw her :two eyes hide. ',Who is that pretty ,maiden ?" I asked ,a :Pgassing Man. "I do not know," lie answered, "But find out soon I can. "For I am here in college- 'eall are here, -,you see. We all are here together-- As friendly as can be." Wherewith he raised his soft felt hat, And bowed in college form; "Beg pardon," he said politely, "But aren't you from ;the dorm? "We all .are here in college- I'm .sure I've seen your face- Do yolu :ever ,go to Granger's? P ypu set a red-hot pace ?" , The pretty maiden -halted; '-, ace itup with .joy: "Ai-n't you the cutest bunny, And such _a pretty boy- "No, I ain't here in college, But I'm friendly jus- the same-- I Work ,in .a ;down-town .laundry; White Swan Is the. name.

Take advantage of your Kodakdwring this time of the Indian paint bru h. A few people, having read the editor-j ial hastily, we presum~e, have mistaken .thec attitude of TheDaily Illini toward the shooting of Philip H. Sharp. The, Illini does not .qo doae tulevery. Not so at all. We have no use for thieves whatsoever We wish to point ;' Lyndoni & CGe 7'19 N university out that the Illini has often urged a more stringent enforcement of law against student offenders wherever they are caught in a violation. -Again and again the Illini has urged that all sneak thieves caught in Armory and the Gymnasium and -elsewhere,f be drastically punished. It -has stood for law enforcement. The Illini editorial' on Sunday made two point only: First, vhen the thievery, at worst was not great, when the officer knew that the thieves were very young, one of them a University student, when the officer abandoned. all opportunity for the future identification -of .either the car or the offenders, when -the, opportunity for rounding, up the de- ceased without resort to :firearms 'was extraordinarily great--when all, of the above seems to have :been, true, not to mention the fact, of danger to others, then for the officer to begin shooting .at a murderously ,close ;range was a bit of sheer .idiocy. Second :for the police 'djepartment to employ a 23 year old youth, with .no previous police experience and.no po- lice training, and the~n put' into his hand the means of death, seems--to say the least-a trifle trustful. We do not condone thievery, I BETTJING ANNO LOTALTY (The Daily Illini) No practice is more uinive~rsally con- demned by faculty and,athletic .author- ities toin the practice of student betting. I'Coaches point out that 'the practice has a demoraiin.effect -on -the game, it self, and administrators .like Presi- dent Kinley are united in condemna- tion of serious moral evils arising with, its advent. It is shown repeatedly that students very seldom bet their own money, that they tend -to becomle more and more mnercenary as the~ practice is continued. John L. Griffith, Western: Conference Director of .Athletics, urges these con- siderations .on the directors of all conference schools.
