G00D PSYCHOLOGY
Thursday's Bargain Day was good
psychology and Ann Arbor mer-
hants must have known it. Results
howed that people have money
end will spend it when properly ap-
proached. In spite of tons of pub-
ment will be left free to help itself
.cute emergency; that they all
money kept in the sock is the prop-
er procedure in times of depression.
Bargain Day reminded us of war
ays when pretty girls climbed a
rung in a fire ladder every time
someone in the crowd bought a
Liberty Bond, but human nature
being what it is, such methods have
their good points. Ann Arbor ought
to have Bargain Days frequently
from now on until people begin to
realize that normal and sensible
buying will not land them in the
poor-house. The depression will
never end if the nation's purse-
strings are to remain permanently
tied.

0ARELESSNESS
Someone at the League permit-
ted a lighted cigarette to drop be-
tween two cushions of a red lounge
Thursday night and the resulting
fire destroyed enough of the up-
holstery to ruin the appearance of
a fine piece of furniture. The per-
son responsible for this example of
thoughtlessness may have been a'
member of the University, may have
been a citizen of Ann Arbor at-
tending the theatre, but his or her
carelessness is a matter to be pon-
dered by all persons who attend
the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre or
enjoy the other privileges of the
League. Smoking in all campus
buildings was banned because of
great fire hazard due to careless-
ness. Let's not give the League just
cause for following the example of
the University in taking away our
privilege to smoke in the building.

"Baxter's Ignore The May Pesti--itorium. Prof. Lydia I. Jones, "The
lence Campaign," was the only ap-ICulture of the High School Stu-
EDUCA TIONAL
REGIMENTA TION"
i
Dr. Frank Aydelotte, president of
Swarthmore college, asserts that
the present "regimentation" in col-
leges under which the abler stu-
dents are held back to the mental
pace of the slowest, or even the
average, defeats their own highest
purposes. The result is, he says, that
"we do not do our best by precise-
ly that group of students for which
our higher insticutons exist." Dr.
Aydelotte has earned the right to
speak on ths subject, for at
Swarthmore the abler individual is
given the opportunity to move on
at a swifter pace.
The "regimentation" idea is like-
wise looked upon with disfavor at
the University of Chicago, where
President Hutchins would let the
time spent by a student in college
be determined not by the hours of
credit gained but by his use of the
opportunities offered him and by
his own qualification for going
forward. He might spend one year,
or three or four. And at Johns Hop-
kins, special provision has been
made for geniuses.
This tendency of putting whole
groups through the same intellec-
tual exercises has been described
by those who see in the process the
loss of the flower of the fruit of
culture-the personality of the in-
dividual in its highest expression.
Regimentation has come to mean
orderly formation, and champions
of a process of individualized edu-
cation see in it a dangerous ap-
proach to "mass education" cam-
parable to other products of this
machine age.
We sympathize with those who
point to the wilting "flower of the
fruit of culture" and we admire
Drs. Aydelotte and Hutchins for
their efforts to sort the wheat from
the chaff in their respective stu-
dent bodies, but we do not see how
a painstaking sorting process could
be made feasible in larger institu-
tions under the present system of
management-the only system, we
hasten to add, that makes possible
the control of student bodies that
number from ten to fifteen thous-
and each. Swarthmore is a smaller
college and experiments of this
kind are comparatively easy to car-
ry on, but in any institution of a
more unwieldly size; such individual
treatment would be virtually im-
possible unless the entire organi-
zation were revolutionized.
Such a revolution might prove
worthwhile but we should like to
observe its effects on the smaller
colleges before advocating a dras-
tic change in present methods.
We believe in some sort of edu-
cational standard. It gives the in-
dividual something by which he
may measure his ability. The solu-
tion of the moron and the genius
can be solved to a large degree by
proper college entrance examina-
tions, and different degrees of in-

LONDON
AT
(New York Times)
President Hoover, in summarizing
the work so quickly done at the
London conference, is generous in
praise of the Ministers who loyal-
ly cooperated in adopting a plan
for the financial stability of Ger-
many. He includes Premier Laval
of France. There is glory enough for
all. Mr. Hoover does not file any
claim for the credit of originating
the whole scheme, though it is
clear that his proposals were in the
main adopted. It is no time for the
'assertion of pride. of authorship.
The President is apparently not in
the least troubled by the differences
between the statements issued by
Secretary Stimson in London and
those given out by the Department
of State at Washington. If the Brit-
ish did, as Mr. Stimson declared,
have a good deal to do with both
devising and shaping the plan ac-
cepted, so much the better. The im-
portant fact is that statesmen were
summoned to London to meet an
accuate emergency; that they all
felt the need of acting rapidly; that
they agreed upon the measures to
which general consent was neces-
sary, and left the others out; that
they did, in fact, secure for Ger-
many immediate relief from the fi-
nancial strain under which she has
been laboring and gave her time
in which to turn round to decide
what next ought to be done.
Mr. Hoover himself is far from;
assuming that the entire work of
relief has been done. Only "sound
foundations' have been laid. What
is to be built upon them the next
few months must determine. The
conference clearly expects supple-
mentary efforts to be made, for, in
addition to the immediate exten-
sion of the credit of $100,000,000 for
a period of three months, and other
forms of banking aid, it stipulated
that a committee should be set up
by the Bank of International Set-
tlements to inquire into "'the fur-
ther credit needs of Germany."
Meanwhile, the German govern-
ment will be left free to helf itself
by every other means of negotia-
tion open to it. France has joined
with the other nations in putting
funds at the disposal of the Reichs-
hank b t ismr tha willin it
peal to the Spartan stoicism of the
true Michigan man (and woman
too, so there) that even approached;
the overwhelming proportions of
our little appeal. Lo:;

Witheringham Bilgewater, A.B.,
LL.D., C.P.R., A.W.O.L., (and ES-
QUIRE to you, thank you) just
swept through Ann Arbor in his us-
ual coy manner and left behind him
this:
POEM FOR THE DAY
We glibly speak of caviar
And squab enclosed in glass,
Of luscious sucklings (derrier),
And lemon sauted bass.
We glibly prattle of such things
Though most content we'd be
To gnaw on week-old ohicken
wings
If they were only free.

Nephew Pltsch has also been
here. That's. one of Pltsch's ido-
sincracies. Being here. He's been
here constantly now, day and night
for two years, including vacations,
so-called. Pltsch, Qudgqp, and the
clock are the only really perman-
ent fixtures in the place. Pltsch
wants us to remind the Great
Reading Public, and the Great Am-
erican Middle Class especially, that
the Rolls Washtenaw County One-
Tenth Century Club is still recruit-
ing members. That is, the Club is
beginning to think about recruit-
ing members. Both of us are.
* * *
Pltsch, who seems just a LITTLE
anxious to keep himself in Rolls at
least most of the time, insists that
we make public a general Rolls in-
vitation to an excursion to the new-
ly discovered lake which nestles be-
hind Natural Science building. As
Our Readers will no doubt remem-
ber, Pltsch himself (modest crea-
ture) discovered this near-famous
watering place by the simple exped-
ient of walking into it one especial-
ly dark night recently.
The body of water, which is here-
after to be known as Lake Whoofle,
in honor of that celebrated family
if local renown, is said to support
the largest shipping on campus. Ad-
vance reservations for a tour of the
lake are being received by Rolls,

According to news dispatches
from Detroit, Saunders Canoe Liv-

used Old Town canoes, it is report-

A GENTLEMAN OF PARTS
A brand new novel of the great
silences of the Northwest in 14-
count 'em-14 installments wil be-
gin in this space tomorrow. Modest
little Pltsch Whoofle, author of this
gripping tale of the great silences
of the Northwest, wishes especial
attention called to the fact that nu-
merous postponements of the ap-;
pearances of the first installment
of this gripping tale of the great
silences of the Northwest were due,
not to an atack of amnesia as was
previously reported but because he
forgot. When questioned regarding
his allegation, Pltsch is reported to
have said, "There's nothing to it.
I simply forgot."'
