REDLL SWEEP I UP TIIE U CRUMBSL I I The Vacant Chair, After lunch yesterday, nothing oc- cu-piedour mind - nothing (count 'em). We walked down State street. Turned, and walked back. Coming back we saw a sign, in front of Lane hall. Sez the sign: "There is a vac- ant chair waiting for you at the.... (deleted for fear of releasing free advertising)." The sign was illustra- ted. We gazed at it curiously. At last we. made it out-it was the vac- ant chair. A moment's calm consid- eration, despite the fact that we once received a D in Logic, was sufficient to show us the reason for the chair's vacancy. To sit in the thing woigld have required the combined agility of a flea and an organ grinder's mon- key. Sadly we sank to the cold stone steps of Lane hall and burst into heartrending sobs.... * * * Q AR RIC E 7thPv f 0Ct R_______vKes. -50G to $2.50 Wed.

MANSFIELD "FOR SERVICES RENDERED"' 'he report is now current that Sec- ary of the Treasurer Mellon plans resign from, his present post as n as the new revenue bill is pass- and that Rep. Theodore E. Burton, Ohio, may succeed him. t is understood that Mr. Mellon been contemplating retirement some time, since he is now seventy rs old, and there could be no more ing time for him to close his serv- s to his government than after .the sage of the bill which he is nov, nsoring, especially if it, contains wIdeas which Mr. Mellon advocates §t strongly,-the reduction of sur- es and th6 withdrawal of the fed- J government from the inheritance field. - 'hese features would meet with at favor throughout the country, 3 Would undoubtedly do much to nu late business: few men have h " Wonderful opportunities for ceful retirement, and a small per- t of those who do have the op- tunity are able to grasp it. Sec- ry Mellon has done a great deal secretary of the treasury. His rk, like that of his boss, Calvin >idge, has been of a silent, con- active nature. In fact, it is large- fue to Mellon's efforts that a, $3,- ,000,000 reduction in taxes became n a remote possibility; and through efforts, that reduction may even ome $4,000,000,000, if recent re- ts from Washington are to be ac- ted. kndrew William Mellon was a suc- sful man in private life, as a rant of his government he has m. an invaluable asset during two ninistrations. When he resigns, the ion will lose the services of a rthy financial expert, both in dom- [c and foreign matters, and, more n that, of one of the few really un- dsh ien in governient service. 'he nation will be sorry to see Mellon resign, but there, is little bt but what the entire nation will ee that he has earned the ,rest t evey man should have with ad- wed years. 1 FARCE-TO SAY THE LEAST 'our prisdners escaped Sunday af- noon from the state branch prison Marquette. Two of these men re serving life terms for murder, other two were serving terms of years or more for armed rob-. y. I bove are the facts of the case, the ite does not know who was re- nslble, but responsibility must lie newhere when .prisoners of this racter are able to get possession guns. Granted that the guns were bably smuggled to them by friends the outside, and that by the pos- eion of those guns the lives of the rds and of officials connected with prison were placed in Jeopardy. it Is hard to understand how], hout some negligence on the part EDITORIAL COMMENT LIVELY 'OLD BOYS (The New York' Times)' , The "commencement season" must be nearly over. A "bumped" crop of degrees has been harvested. Sheep- skins rustle in every breeze. Fortu-3 nately or unortunately, the painstak- ing inquirer can't answer the most momentous question: Who of the il- limitable procession of graduates is the Oldest Living Graduate? The suc- cession of brief tenants of this honor- able post in each college is better! worth watching than many dynastics of noisier name. These are profes- sors -of the art of viability. If, in the end, they have to yield to the butual doctrine that "Time stays, we go," they put up a pretty fight. To the best of their ability, they are modest foi- lowers of Methuselah, that doubtless excellent patron saint of annuitants, I a little under a cloud, it must be con- fessed, since Mr. Shaw discovered him. I If we have to renounce him, sus- pecting that he may have been an in- comparable bore, perhaps even a Struldbrug, the college worthies who innocently guide us to a sufficiency of years are none the less admirable. Sometimes the elder brethren manage to survive even in the bosom of the Nourishing Mother, a bosom much racked at present, when not only the undergraduates but .specially gifted, self-elected graduates show the col- lege authorities how the shop should be run. It is restful to think ot Eliphalet Nott, President of Union for sixty-two years. In the eighteenth century Henry Flynt was a Fellow of the Harvard Corporation for sixty-five years. A brisk old boy was "Tutor Flynt." An undergraduate who ac- companied him on a journey from Cambridge to Portsmouth in 1754, when he was in his seventy-eighth year, records his "nip of milk punch" at Lynn. Just as the chaise cme "in full view of Clark's Tavern," the old Tutor, Fellow and Clerk of the Over- seers was tumbled headlong out of the chaise, nearly breaking his neck. He was revived by "two or three bowls of lemon punch made pretty sweet," which, as they "were pretty well charged with good old spirit," made him "very pleasant and sociable." ' If Rum was for the eighteenth, Sport is for the twentieth century. We quote from the latest report of the Harvard class of 1862, which has nine surviving members, the youngest of whom, Mr. James Green, has just re- ceived a degree, earned by study, from the University of Paris: Our oldest member, Barrett, our chaplain, is in his eighty-eighth year. Having exhausted theology, scholarship and teaching during the first seventy-five or eight yrcars of his life, he is now, among oter things, recognized as an expet swimmer, almost realizing the class- ication of an amphibious animal, constantly inviting death by swiim- ming long distances und'r water and then suddenly rising to the surface, thereby risking a shot from some wandering spors'0an mistak- ing him for a seal or a looni! He is our Class subniarine. A youngling of 84 hopes to complete his book on "English Poetics" in two or three years. Long may these husky old hopefuls of Harvar' and every other college work and disport! Much may be done with those persons from whom, of all horned critters, Mr. Greeley prayed to be delivered-if they only have time enough to get a 'little education.

Daily Dissertition Today's Topic: The Slavery of Free- dom: The issue of one of our more popu- lar humor magazines for July 4 (for sale on all news stands June 29) calls itself the "Slaves Number." jVMay we officially congratulate that magazine on its splendid stand? On the cover appears the Goddess of Liberty, badly bent, labled "Just a Gi-l that Men Forget." Splendid! The aim of the magazine must be to make reformers and similar buz- zards feel like the baseball player in the accompanying illustration, pro- vided, of course, that rubles were Lselling at one cent the hundred- weight.

Hippityhop went Petey, and all the merry little breezes chuckled to themselves thinking it very funny that Petey should be skipping over the green meadows for 'it must be said that Petey was a lazy little fellow and seldom exerted himself. Bimeby, Petey met Kid Weasel, who was a bad little weasel and some- times-sometimes did not obey his kind mama.. Kid Weasel wanted to play a trick on Petey so he asked him, "Petey, where are you going?"' "Down to the big pool to watch grandad Frogi-catch flies," said Petey laughingly. Kid weasel thereupon tried] to tie a tin can to Petey's tail but the funny thing was that, you all know, children dear, rabbits don't have tais, so it was impossible. "Ha ha," laughed Petey merrily, and away he tripped down to the pool ko watch grandad Frog, which was good fun, I assure you, -Beezlebub. * * * If you have laughed at this you're crazy. Tamam.
