HOOKER minished, if not done away with en- tirely. What, are these causes? First among them isthe home. Does that sound like blasphemy? The boy goes out to the neighbor's back 'for- ty" and "hooks" a luscious water. melon. He is caught, and sent tC the family tribunal for punishment and correction. Does he get it? You know the answer. A fond father re- gales him with stories of his owr watermelon and chicken-stealing es- capades, cautions him about getting caught next time, and sends him tC bed. Is the boy to be blamed if he ends up in the penitentiary? It is all "bosh" to say that every Amer- ican boy is born with a knowledge of right and wrong. If he doesn't get it at home he never will, and slip- shod home training is today respon- sible for a large amount of juvenile delinquency. Another cause is ythe school, right up to the university. Many teachers, there are exceptions, feel insulted if you inquire as to what they are doing to improve the morals of their charg- es. Yet now, for many hours of the Aay, the school must take the place of, the home. Haven't we a right to expect that it will spend a little time on the moral training of the child? And psychologists have shown us that punishment is not enough. A grow- ing boy wants to know why he 'should not take Bill's pencil, and if he does not learn from someone, he'll end up in the cell next to the other boy. The church is another contribut- ing cause, with its incessant wrang- ling over creed and jumbled dogma. When the church learns again that its main purpose on earth is to preach the simple moral doctrines of Jesus Christ, and let theology alone, then our youngsters will get some of the ideas they should have. These are hard facts to face, but true, nevertheless. Few men are born crooks. They learn the trade when they are boys. And in nearly every case it starts with a simple theft or evasioi of the law that society is too blind to rebuke. It is true that our legal proceedure is antiquated, our police forces in- adequate; but when we, a's parents, or teachers, or churchpeople, do our work correctly, then we can start on the law. And not until we have clean- ed our own Augean 'stables first. s y D t 1 D e s e t t E r 3 y ,I ) I I .I I I TEDROLL HURRAH! NOW WE KNOW All summer long we have been wondering just what there is to do- if any-in Ann Arbor during the hot season. And then, 1o and behold, Dr. robert Hannah, of the public speak- ing department, comes forth (or was it fifth?) with his dissertation on the benefits of spending the summer months in Ann Arbor. Order a bou- quet of roses for Dr. Hannah! s * s Closer attention to the said disser- tation reveals the fact that the ad- vantages of the Summer Session are twofold. First, he says, it offers a place where intensive study, and graduate and research work can be carried on. That still leaves nothing to do. Regular students never heard of the term "intensive study," let alone practice it; and the only re- search work that is carried on is that of trying to find something to do. And that often takes one out of town. -_ 11I !!iilltl11111I I IIIl i11 1111 11 111 - Eugene Permanent Wave Special, $8.50 = 2 Months' Free Service - POWDER PUFF SHOPPE- Dial 6442 320 So.

ASHLEY & DUSTIN Foot of First St. STEAMER LINE Detroit, Michigan i-I I_ ,.-- YYY YVIYYa - GOLDEN RULE DRIVING A feat as ingenious as it is novel is now being undertaken by the To- ledo Blade, leading newspaper in the nearby city. What is known as a Golden Rule driving campaign, wit a message of consideration and cour- tesy for "the other Xfellow" when driv- ing an automobile, is being conduct- ed. In keeping with the plan's of the campaign, an automobile labelled "The Golden Rule Car" is driven about the city every day this week with the idea of furthering the spirit of Golden Rule driving and making driving safer for those at the wheel and pedestrians alike. The idea is, of course, that with r good example to follow, automobile drivers are going to take more pre- cautions when operating their own cars and consequently consider the ultimate safety of everyone on the street, Coming as it does, at a time when automobile accidents are more numerous than ever before, perhap's even on the increase, the campaign is highly significant and commenda- ble. The fact that the lives of 82 children have been snuffed out by automobile accidents in. Toledo dur- ing the past six and one-half years, is surpassed in importance only by the fact that such conditions prevail throughout the country. There is a very great need for just such fore- sight )and good judgment, and The To- ledo Blade has set a splendid exam- ple to follow, one which newspapers in other cities would do well to sit up and consider. The campaign is aimed primarily at drivers, but it could quite easily have a more far- reaching influence if the attention which it has attracted would serve to motivate such a movement in other localities. In cities of such siZe as Toledo, Detroit, Chicago, ,and the like, condi- tions are not such that restrictive measures similar to the automobile ban which is enforced on the campus in Ann .Arbor can be effected. On the other hand, The Toolo Blade has led the way in showing what can be done toward taking extra driving pre- cautions, and it is to be highly com- mended ifor doing an inestimable good. WHENCE CRIME "Law is but one agency of social control," says Dean Roscoe Pound of Harvard Law School in the Christian Science Monitor of recent date. "In the background, home training, re- ligion, education, and the opinion of one's neighbors-operate continually to con'strain the sort of conduct re- quired by life in civilized society." The Dean is undoubtedly right. We Americans are too prone to look at law and the courts to solve our prob- lems of crime. We expect the police to protect our homes and lives from the ravages of crooks and gangs, and this they should do. But what about the cause of all this. Is it natural for young lads in their teens to hold up mail trains, or "bobbed hair bandits" to relieve the unsuspecting wayfarer of his roll The cynic says, "Yes." In his view it is a necessary part of civilization, not to be condoned, but neither can it be eradicated. But the thinker, who is honest with himself and his country, believes it is all due to cer- ain, causes: causes that can be di-. * * * CLASSIFIED ADS PAY I Editorial Comment "COLLEGIATE" MOVIES Every time we see one of the us- ual type of college movies, in which 3 the weakling student turns out to be a great athlete and is immediately - the idol of all the co-eds and the de- sirable prospect of all the fratern- ities, we stroll home musing disgust- edly that it is from such misrepre- sentative pictures that off-the-campus people get their impressions of col- lege life. Mingled with our disgust is the inward satisfaction that univer- sity life is not the least bit like that portrayed by the offending cinema, but still that is only a personal sat- isfaction and does not alleviate the fact that from such misrepresentative movies and trashy novels, the public thinks college is the place to drink strong liquors, go to necking parties, or rise to fame in a day by displaying hidden athletic prowess. And the whole trouble is that the movie-going public actually believes that univer- sity people act that way. A college movie has never been known to show a classroom or a lab- oratory filled with students working. And while this omission isn't made necessarily to intimate that students don't do school work, the average movie fan forgets that there are scholastic activities at a university,1 and illogically although naturally gets the idea that college is all foot- ball games, confectionery shops, and dances. Just as there haas been a need for a Great American Novel, there is also a place for a Great College Movie de- picting college life as it really is. It shouldn't be difficult for a moving picture organization to film either- find a simple plot and film its action on a large state university campus, I subordinating the plot to the actual showing of college lifeyas it is. It would be a highly interesting and gratifying film to watch. -Daily Illini. The newspapers of late tell us that "Gentleman Gene" Tunney has retir- ed. Now, when he announces itl about three more times, and fights four, then we will believe him. An official at the Olympics the other day, so the story goes, struck one of the gatekeepers. Maybe he thought he was entered in the box- ing tournament for his country. A straw vote is useful in showingt .which way the draft is blowing. It is further granted that a larger cultural background is open to stu- dents here. But the sad part about that is that too few students are able to find the door that opens to it. * * * Wait, however! The grand climax comes when it is suggested that the Rockford plays offer much in the way of entertainment and divertisment. That is too much. Mere mention of said plays is sufficient concession that there is nothing else to do dur- ing the summer months. FLASH: EXAM WEEK SCHEDULE ANNOUNCED! The Toasted Rolls welfare bureau, after a hot and heavy conference, hereby submits its revised schedule for exam week. Classes which meet in Detroit at 4 a. m. will hold a reunion and ex- amination February 30, 1921; exams for those irregular classes that meet anytime the class gets there will be held at the usual time, at Saunder's Canoe Livery. All botany examina- tions will be held yesterday out on the boulevard. Examinations for high class will be held under the aus- pices of next year's J-hop committee sometime, while classes that never meet will be examined by the Rolls Liscense Bureau upon request at the Muskegon office where Lark seems to spend most of his time. * * * NEW SERVICE OFFERED IT IS RUMORED that the uniform- ed rider of the -iron horse, who casually interfers with a joy ride now and then, is being relieved of part of his duties by a private detective. It is alleged thatn a man with a name that sounds something like Lumbago, has recently completed a correspond- ence course in detective work and the degree of B.D. (Bachelor of Detec- tivity) and is now ready for what- ever the students have to offer in the 'way of phantom drivers. * * * Headline-RECORD IS SET FOR AMOUNT OF STUDENTS LOANS We are led to believe that the fig- ure of $119,000, the amount reported, would look like the price of a lemon coc if they could get an accurate check on the amount of money out- standing in fraternity houses. That WOULD be a record. * #** Now that Lark is out of town for the rest of the week perhaps we'll get a chance to get ac- quainted with sweet Sue who has been so awfully chummy with' him this summer. Now about a 'letter for u, Suet # * * A Chicago girl won the women's 100 metre dash in the Olympics the other day. She probably got her training chasing bullets. * *# August 17 is approaching. It can't be long now until we can come back and try to get eligible after a big summer of nature study.
