Night Editor--ELLIS MERRY .; °¢ LET THERE BE LIGHT Satan has laid his "clutches" on still another educational institution, namely Kalamazoo college, oldest of its kind in the state of Michigan, and we cn eopect'stil-another avalanche of publicity with its charges and counter-charges to descend. A Grand Rapids pastor, leader among ortho- dox Baptists, has made an attack upon the subjugation by modernistic Influ- ences" of the Baptist denominational school of Michigan. The charges themselves-very spe- cific-are rather interesting in this day. The pastor said that it is com- mon knowledge that dances have been sponsored by the college faculty for the students, that destructive criticism of the bible and organic evolution are taught in the school. He bewail- ed the fact that fond mothers and fathers have been sending their off- spring to such "an institution in the belief that they would return to them ready to carry on the church work without knowing that they would come back with their faith gone and possessed of very low moral stand- ards. It is indeed a shrewd way that the devil's men have of undermining the religious principles of the young under the guise of science. Slightly different in comparison were the statements of Dr. Albert Parker Fitch at the first convocation of the year. The radical Dr. Fitch advocated the policy of leaving to the youth of the country the problem of its own religion, and even went so far as to proclaim the system a hope- lessly tangled mess, although one which forms a solid and safe enough basis upon which to build. The truth of his words is self-evident. It is this generation now in the process of molding which will soon take its affairs entirely into its own hands. Its members do not take over-kindly to a doctrine which holds them to; precepts long since grown old. They wi*t to establish for themselves as they see fit, and probably they shall. The man from Minnesota would seem to be correct in saying that the re- ligion of our fathers rests no more easily on our shoulders than a group of eighteenth century furniture in a Kansas prairie. Speaking of Kansas prairies, on the same day that the Grand Rapids pas- for hurled his accusations at the neighboring college, Willian Allen White, famous Emporia editor, sat in front of his Gazette's scoreboard and watched over,2,000 fans gasp over the world series returns, contrary to an, ed so untiringly to bring speakers of the highest caliber to Ann Arbor-- men who are gifted with the power to start their listeners thinking along new lines. The congregation at the opening convocation numbered only 1,700. Perhaps the fact that Dr. Albert Parker Fitch spoke here only last May had something to do with the comparatively small gathering. If anything, it should have brought even more students to hear him last Sun- day. But the average college student is subjected to a certain amount of sameness in lecture courses every week. Possibly many feared some- thing of this nature last Sunday. There was no call for that, however- his recent address here was anything but similar to that of last May. Dr. Carl Stafford Patton of the Chi- cago Theological seminary will be here Sunday. He received his Ph.D. degree at Michigan and was pastor of the First Congregational church in Ann Arbor for ten years. He is well known to a number of faculty members and townspeople although he left here fifteen years ago. It would be fitting, indeed, for Dr. Patton to be received by a well-filled auditori- um upon his return to the town where his religious endeavors saw their be- ginning. ANOTHER CONFERENCE One of the principal objections of- fered to the entrance of the United States into the World court is that there now exists no codiefiation of international law and that the vary- ing precedents and divergent views of international jurists is very likely to end in disputes. However, a seri- ous attempt to make the codification of international law a reality is now being made. A House resolution in- troduced recently by Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts, which would provide for a third Hague con- ference for this purpose, is now being seriously considered by administra- tion officials. The resolution would have the President call a world conference to restate the established rules of inter- national law, to formulate and agree upon amendments to the present rules, to endeavor to reconcile divergent views and to secure general agree- ment on questions which have hereto- fore been disputed, and to consider the subjects not now regulated but which should receive immediat con- sideration, such as the control onar- cotics. The resolution is in agrenent with the recommendations ma ,,by the Advisory Committee of Ji igt's, assembled by the League of N ions at The Hague in 1920, of which Root, former Secretary of State, was a member. Although Senator Borah has already gone on record as favoring the rs I tion and Secretary Kellogg has Sa that it would be highly desirable for the country to cooperate in bringing about any codification of internatioW1 law though he was. unprepared to sa' that the time was propitious, it is dif- ficult to anticipate just what the atti- tude of Congress will be on the pro- posed conference. With the World court question shelved until the re- convening of Congress, it is to be wondered whether the codification conference would becloud the issue of Worlld court entrance or provide a stepping stone for its accpetance. Aside from preliminary fireworks, it can only be settled definitely when Congress reconvenes. By considering the addition of plural marriages to quick divorces, Mexico threatens to get the jump on some of our more progressive cities of marital fame. "Revolt Looms Up Again In Spain." Threatened revolutions seem to be- coming as numerous in Spain as the destruction of cabinets was in France.

SEGREGATED INSTITUTIONS To The Editor: Since I- have just left one of the Eastern Women's colleges mentioned in "An Alarmist's Viewpoint," I feel that, after two years there, I under- stand the situation in them fairly well. Thus far I can see no advantages in a college where the sexes are seg- regated, and, at the same time, no dis- advantages. In the first place, the classes here are more satisfactory. A narrow point of view is apt to be the result of edu- cation in a segregated school. I shall speak chiefly of women's schools. In them all of the faculty, with few ex- ceptions,, who are at all outstanding,I are women. Everyone recognizes thej fact that the points of view of the two men's colleges are asked to withdraw because of immoral conduct-and hun- dreds more should be. In one of the small women's colleges in the East several women were expelled for im- morality in one semester; in another there has been a distressing number of su'icides and disappearances. In the so-called conservative colleges where there is educational segrega- tion, it is realized that the worst type of man and the worst type of women will always come in contact socially., In these very places, riotous liquor parties and orgies occur. Fraternity parties of the worst type are by no means limited to co-educational insti- tutions. The college women take part in them whether they are held in the same university or at a man's college within traveling distance. A girl who is weak and easily led is, if anything more apt to go wrong in a women's college than in a' coeducational uni- versity. Unfortunately the tendency in a girls school is to be "man crazy," and many girls will disregard moral principles for the sake of popularity in a place where men are scarce. Yes, a woman does develop a "per- sonality which is impossible in a co- educational school." That is one of the curses of women's colleges. Many of the "henpecked husbands" of the future are destined to be such because in college days the women in their private colleges have acquired that' objectionable attitude that considers women by divine concession to be al- ways right and to be forever worthy of having their own way. In an age when good sportsmanship and the "give and take" attitude Is popular, why should the men and women of the country be separated in a way which makes both sexes expect to run things absolutely independent of the other? They should be able to asso- ciate with each other In all the phases of college life-not merely the social. -B. H., '28. A FRESHMAN SPEAKS To The Editor: I read with interest the communi- cation in The Daily, Oct. 13, from an alarmist regarding the co-education. In which he attacks the morales of* the University. Although I am only a freshman on the campus, I feel that Iitieh of this "tommyrot" concerning the immorality of college students is 'Pere fiction. Before coming to the 1YpFJ, my many friends advised me against coming, stating that col- 'ge are merely a plant for turning out drunkards and criminals. I am g 1. I d not take the advice. For, 'althoigh I have been on the campus such a short time, I already have 1W _ OT11e foolishness of their state- ments. The men and women I have *3'3>%ie campus are the intellects of young America. I have attended e e.al churches, and have heard e ions of God and religion discus- sed by the students as I have never heard before. The churches in Ann Ar r have a larger attendance of .young people than anywhere I have evd been. The Alarmist states that, "When members of both 'sexes mingle to- gether, a moral question arises, and the more they are together the more serious the question becomes." If this were true in regards to co-education, then it would be true of man's great- est institutions. The church would be as much a center of wickedness as colleges are supposed to be. Marriage itself would be immoral. For here members of both sexes mingle with each other in the closest relation- ship. The public knows and hears of only a small minority of the students of the University-of the idle class who spring to the front pages of the news- papers by their wild parties. Of the majority, the students who are work- ing and sacrificing to secure an edu- cation, the general public knows noth- ing. They know not that the campus is full of people with a desire to learn, who haven't time to be as wicked as they are painted. Enlarge and make prominent the moral students in any university and the number will far! overshadow that of the other group.z Again, the "Alarmist" thinks that women are not given a fair chance in competition with the men. The women's vote in all elections counts as much as the .man's. Some of our biggest achievements here at Michi- gan are accomplished by women. When a man has spent four years or more in close contact with woman, has seen her face difficulties as he has faced them, and win, it teaches him to respeI and admire womanhood. A man who respects and holds woman sacred, will not nor cannot do any- thing to harm her. Women as well as men are called upon to face life. Man and woman are called upon to face. life together. Surely then, they are better able to do this when they have learned to understand the opposite sex, and where is there a better place j to learn that understanding than the AND DRAMA ELSIE .JANIS A Review, by Vincent Wall "Oh boy-and how!" Elsie Janis as a jazzy lady, slangy and with a low- down voice that clicks with any audi- ence: a trick of widening her eyes, a profile that would command a salary on the legitimate, long, white fingers and a shrug or a gesture that can carry as perfect an inflection as her voice. Mimicry offers the widest of fields and Miss Janis can duplicate any off the personalities in the theater-and her satire is devastating: Ethel Bar- rymore in her own version of "Mama Goes Where Papa Goes" and John Barrymore in a travesty of his im- mortal Hamlet, and both of them doneI in the Barrymore grand manner. Jean Eagels singing "Yes, Sir, That's My Baby-And My God What a Wow!" with a walk straight from the San Francisco redlights; Sarah Bernhardt -a perfect imitation that would have made the immortal Sarah turn com- pletely over in her grave, wooden leg and all. And Elsie has many talents -one wonders why she ever left mu- sical comedy; she can sing with that lowdown that makes you wiggle in your seat, and she dances well, even Elsie Janis SHU BERT LAFAYETTEI Lafayette at Shelby Street It's Here Again!

THE MOE LAUNDRY I Dial 3916 Popular Cominediene and Vaudeville Artist if she does giggle and burlesque the while. It is no wonder the London music halls, the Paris variety houses and American vaudeville call her the best one woman act in the trade. Sophie Tucker may sing louder, and Raquel Meller may hav~e sex appeal, but Janis goesacross the lights like a thousand grand!. And the assisting artists were more than exceptional. Carolina Lazzari has a contralto voice that should not be billed second on any program. It is pure velvet and with a range that any mezzo would envy. She may lack the radiance of Jeritza or Rosa Pon- selle, but the fact that she was once Metropolitan shows that someone is not using good judgment. Lauri Kennedy is a cellist of ability-but he should leave the facial contortions to Elsie-she does them better; and Robert Steele is a passing baritone. "EVERYTHING THAT IS, IS IMPORTANT!"

Kenneth King West Indian Negresses: Bella ..... . .........Fred Crandell Pearl .................Daniel Warner Susie.................R. W. Ramsey Violet ...............F. A. Nordquist The "S. S. Glencairn" was the last production of last year, and closed a successful season. The trenchant realism of the piece, and its accurate portrayal of sea life caught its audi- ence and it closed with patrons still unsatisfied. The drama is also unique in the fact that it is not a single play but a series of three from six one act plays writ- ten by O'Neill with the action of all three taking place on board the "S.I S. Glencairn". This unity of place as well as several characters who run through all three plays succeed in linking the action together. The first of the three, "The Moon of the Cari- bees" is a vivid picture of the life of the sailors of a British tramp steam- Read the 4 - r- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - . QUALITY.
