bodies, there were few that were

'dless ow the others.

ibjections of old guards. Rulers
come to the point where they

EDITORIAL COMMENT
WOMEN AND THE WEED
(The Milwaukee Sentinel)
"Women are smoking, right out in
the open, more than ever," says an
Eastern observer, commenting on the
opening of Brooklyn street cars to
women smokers and the installation
of special smoking cars for ladies on
at least one railroad.'
In spite of anti-smoke ordinances int
some sections of the country, the bat-;
tle for the "right to smoke" is consid-
ered fairly won by some feminist}
leaders. The authority of the Depart-
ment of. Commerce is quoted as sup-,
porting the evidence that the tremen-
dous increase in the consumption of
cigarettes is due to feminine demand.
The amount' consumed is now twenty
times what it was in 1900, an increase,
which certainly can not be accounted
for by male consumers.
If women have won another "right,"
the question is raised: "What are
they going to do with it?" Will the
new habit become general or will they,
get tired of smoking as soon as laws
and custom offer no further opposi-
(tion?
Some skeptics believe that femin-
ine consumption of cigarettes has
reached its peak volume and will de-,
crease. No doubt it was stimulated;
to some extent by moral and legal
prihibition. The late Amy Lowell,
for instance, is remembered for smok-
ing cigars, not because she liked,
them, but .because she confessedlT
made herself a martyr to the "prin-
ciple" of feminine "emancipation."
If there are any more such heroines,,
they will probably drop their self-sac-
rificing practice in the enjoyment of
the new freedom.
Is it irrational for women to fight
for a privilege which t1~ey do not ex-
pect to use once it is granted? If
so, it must be admitted that men are
not displaying any higher rationality.
The Volstead Act, it is asserted, has
evoked an untimately thirst in many
people who never used to drink before
drinking was prohibited, and the great
American pilgrimage across the Can-
adian border seems to bear out this
assertion.
We may also consider what men
did with the right to vote. They
fought and died for it, and now that
they have it, democracy is lucky if
fifty per cent of the voters take the
trouble of exercising their greatest
right. Whatever the women may
choose to do with the weed, mere man
is hardly in a postion to set himself
up as moral censor.
LIGHTING THE TORCHES
OF REASON
(The Detroit News)
"Mark Hopkins on one end of a
log and a boy on the other consti-
tuted'a University," is an old saying in
educational circles and it contains the
ideal toward which the greatest ed-
ucators of today are trying to work
back. Mark Hopkins was president
of Williams college from 1836 to 1872,
becoming president when he was 34.
Dr. Clarence Cook Little, president
of the University of Maine and soon
to become president of the Univer-
sity of Michigan, who is 36 years old,
has voiced the same ideal. Practic-
ally, in these days of huge student
memberships,( it means to bring the
student under the personal leadership
and ihspiration of at least one well
worth while faculty man, a man of
broad understanding; of a comprehen-
sive philosophy of knowledge as relat-'

ed to life. The holder of such an ideal
is not content to pack young minds
with facts and theories, stacked like so
much cordwood, each stick touching.
,but not relating to the next.
Rather he seeks to kindle the factsa
and theories, so that they may all be'
joined in the fire of thought and seas.
o'ning ability to illumine life, and to
build the fire so skilfully that it will
burn until death, casting forth spar.ks'
that will in- turn set the torches f
thought burning in others.
If the State University is to fulfil-
its highest functions, it must not be
satisfied with quantity production of
graduates, like a factory turning out
inanimate things, but must give qual-
ity standards of originality and con-
structiveness. Dr. Little has said
his hope and plan are to do this.

No, Pygmalion, we are not geeting
Biblical nor even bibulous. We areI
merely stating th ethree "Rs" of get-

in your ability to bluff, second, hope
that the prof. wont catch you bluff-

your neighbor in the final. Now for
be it from us to put any foul ideas

News Item
Peat Bog has been found. He
wasn't in Detroit at all. He was up
north somewherb, and Sunday night
he returned to the bosom of Ann Ar-
bor, more or less figuratively speak-
ing, and was welcomed more or less.
He told his sad story, but was too
weak to write it, so we are doing it
for him.
As we said, he had been up North
somewhere. That being over with, he
drove back in a Ford (Adv or not, as
you see fit) of uncertain age and an
enormity of speed. The road they
were driving on became gravelly and
soft, and as they sped along, the
arms of the driver became wretchedly
tired, but would he relinquish the
wheel? Alt no, for he was of stern-
er stuff-the Peat Bog must be
brought from Ahen to Aix or vice
versa, which ever it was. With this
determined thought in his mind, he
drove. Finally his grip weakened vis-
ibly. They were speeding down a
hill, the gravel wrenched at the
wheels, and the wee bit Lizzykins (a
Scotch abbrevation of endearment)
took to the air and flew like a boidy.
Peat Bog, with rare presence of mind,
grasped the thing which came closest
to hand as he spun through the air.
Fortunately tis turned out to be the
spare tire of a passing motor veicle.
Feeling at home, Peat Bog settled
down to happy dreams of the old days
when he used to ride the rails with
kindred wandering Willies, and when
he awoke, he was here. Ah, us.

Washington was here over the week
end. Now normally we like this gent,
and he's a good guy in his way, ,but
there are times when he really gets us
sore. F'rinstance. Saturday morning
at 7:30 o'clock just as we were en-
joying our much needed beauty sleep,
in barges Wash and says: "How's for
doing horseback riding hey?"
"Go to Hell," says we in our most
cordial tone.
"Aw, come on," says he, and we
went, never having been able to re-
sist pleading (Port Huron papers
please copy.)
After we had had breakfast and
barged about a bit, we fetched up at
the stables and hollered for horses.
"Can you ride?" asks the person.
"We have set a horse or two," says
we modestly trying to hide the fact
that we are probably the ridinest fool
this side of Chicago and points West.
"Well, on your own hed be it," says
the person, and drags out a couple
of horses.
"You take the one with the fat sad-
dle," says we to Wash, careless like.
"We never did like anything but
western."
So he did, and we set out. Just as
we reached the end of the drive,
Wash's nag lets out a whinny and

starts for Timbuctoo as a pace cal-
culated to get him there in 32 1-2
minutes inclusive. "Wheeeee" says
our hourse, and does likewise. "Con-
trol yourself," says we sternly, haul-f
ing in on the reins. That didn't make
any difference, either.
We neared a corner at which we had
last seen Wash turning to the left.
Being used to western horses, we laidj
the reins across the right side of our
horse's neck. He went to the right,
and so did we, by the grace of God.
We realized that this hoss din't
know such stuff, so we hauled him
hard aport and bore off down the
street. Our horse broke into a trot,
and we decided that our sitrrups were
too long. "Whoa, you three ply hard
boiled star-spangled jackass," says we,
in imitation of Peter B. Kyne. When
he whaed, we shortened the stirrups
and cast about us for Wash. He was
nowhere to be seen, but our gallant
steed must have heard him, for he took
out in an unxpected direction all, at
once.
We didn't like that, because pavement
is not the best form of traction mate-
rial for a shod horse. We pulled him
up gently but firmly, and he looked
around at us with an expression which
indicated: "Who's running this show,
hey?" "We are," says we emphatically,

and headed back to the stables. There
we found Wash, looking tired and
worn.
"Where's your nag?" says we. "Go
to Hell," says he. "Oh," says we un-
derstandingly. Then we limped home
together.
G'wan to classes, the/e ain't no last
line.
