Coston William Wachs SATURDAY, JULY 19, 1919 Thornton W. Sargent Jr.--Issue Editor HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU KNOW? Back in the time of Adam, it was no exaggeration for him to say that he knew everybody in his world. There was only his wife and children, and he knew everybody worth knowing. .There wasn't anybody else. However, as the world grew more populous, as more and more people came to settle on the earth, it became increasingly difficult for everybody o know everybody else. And because the task seemed such a hopeless one, t was abandoned, and people cared only to know those with whom they had direct contact in business or personal relations. Nowadays we haven't time to know people. We have our acquaint- ances in the business world, and we make our conversations with them as brief as possible. In our personal life we have a few friends, with whom we foregather once in a while for a game of cards; or an evening at the heater, and many acquaintances, whose existence means little or nothing o us and to whom ours means the same. With every advance of civilization, this condition of affairs seems to become more acute. In the busy life of the average city business man, here is little room for personal friendships, of the kind that characterizes a small country town. In a large apartment house in any big city, the man who knows his neighbor to any degree of intimacy is a rare specimen; in most cases he will not even be able to tell the name of the family next ioor. And all the time we hear that man is a social animal, that our society is a co-operative one, that it is only because each one helps in the work >f the world that any of us are able to get along. It is a beautiful theory, and a true one, and yet we do not seem to take it literally and concretely. One of the best ways to know and understand life is to know and under- stand people. If success in life were measured by the number of one's friends, instead of the amount of one's fortune, perhaps there would be fewer failures. "He travels farthest who travels alone," said the poet, but te is wrong. A man who cannot make friends is not the man to reach the On the Other Hand- We Found This in the Mail-Box For the Humor Colyum E. Hon. Sir:-Your much discussed question of some time back concern- ing the mysterious source of shine on our dear things' shoes was quite in- nocently answered by one of them last night. Having keen sense for se- curing the solutiogn to unfathomed mysteries we casually asked a sweet child while canoeing why she contin- ually showed us her shoes. We were surprised to find that she admitted that it was her shoes she was showing, and for the reason that she had just given them their first shine, adding that, "All the girls of the house come to use my brush to shine their shoes." We have now found out that the rea- son why our loved ones are so rarely seen within the environs of our classic Grecian parlors is because there has been placed in each house a brush to be used on Sundays only so as to avoid the newly imposed 15-cent tax. But what we started out to say was how is it that we notice that cats fight so much more vigorously at night than they do in the daytime? Al. K. Lie.

By the way, Ly, you want to be sure and get your poetic license for they come out pretty soon. After much persuasion and after Iweeks of earnest endeavor we have solved a mystery of .mysteries. One of the best known boarding houses has given us the secrets of many of its famous gastronomic atrocities, Here they are: Camouflage Pudding Take one loaf of well moulded bread, bind it and gag it and shave it all over with a corn razor. Then pound it to a pulp with a croquet mallet, chop it into squares with a nail file, and serve smothered in shaving lather. Lima Bean Steak Take 12 unsuspecting lima beans and beat them into insensibility with a tack hammer. Add enough fish glue and broken glass to flavor, place the mass on the' stove until itsimmers, then serve on blotting paper floating in shoe blacking. Dessert a la Ann Arbor Take the breast of a milk fed wa- termelon, well larded, pack full of carpet tacks, add finely chopped pipe cleaners in red ink, and serve cov- ered with liquid court plaster. Crab Meat Cocktail Take a pair of old tennis shoes, run them through a clothes wringer and let them soak for three days in bay rum. After they are thoroughly de- composed add shredded flypaper and garlic to taste and serve with library paste. Of course all this reminds you of the old gag, how do you make hash? You don't make hash, Hermione, it accu- mulates. The Summer Girl The summer girl we gladly scan, We look her o'er; We find she wears a coat of tan, And not much more. --Luke MeLuike. The summer girl is with us now And shows some style; She wears a string of colored beads, And pleasant smile. ---Hastings (Neb.) Tribune. The summer girl is here today In filmy drape; The sun shines brightly that we may Behold her shape. -Detroit Free Press. The summer girl a-bathing goes, She does look cute. And in her vanity case she totes Her bathing suit. H. W. FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 10:30 SUNDAY Sermon-Lecture by Lloyd C.

Hadley, whether usic. is getting a square deal in the American colleges. He answered, o. Otir purpose in putting the question was not to receive authoritative )rroboration of a belief that we knew to be founded on fact, but to arrive t the cause of this condition. How does Dr. Hadley explain it? Very igenuously. "In this, as in many other matters, the colleges reflect the emand of the American reading public; and the American reading public as not learned to estimate music at its full value." It is not wholly clear us, from this brief statement, whether Dr..Hadley rests the larger bur- en of blame upon the college or the "reading public." However, his words re an admission that our seats of learning, instead of moulding and direct- ig popular opinion, permit themselves to "reflect the demand" of that ;inion. Through what subtle process do college educators gauge the imper and desires of that fluid thing called the public mind? Seemingly ey accomplish, without elaborate machinery, what the astutest diplomats nd politicians find a distracting task. For our part, we do not believe that the American people, whether ley have learned to estimate music at its full value or no, would in any ay, shape or manner oppose giving music its rightful place in the college irriculum. Indeed, it is far; more likely, to our mind, that the majority ould applaud so sensible a step. It is just about time that a halt was illed upon this easy labelling of our masses as "provincial" or "back- ard" or "uncouth." Perhaps they are merely unconsulted in matters of is kind. But if they are egregiously benighted in cultural questions, it certainly not to them that our college educators should look for guid- ice. Such misplaced reliance is an abject confession of weakness and im- otence. When American educators conquer their timorousness and con- irvatism, then will music get a square deal in the colleges. Unless the eading public" conceives a sudden interest in such diverting topics as irricula and informs their makers where and why, reforms are in order. 'hat, too, might make for justice. - Clipped. "If I don't sleep for at least eight hours," said a well-known business an recently, "I know it next morning. If I don't make up for it next ght, my customers know it." Over in France at a ball game, the umpire rode to the field in an air- ane. Over here they sometimes have to ride away from the field in an nbulance. Some of the 339th have brought -Russian wives back home with them. n these be the "Russian horrors" we've been hearing so much- about? "Police to Make Liquid Out of Whiskey Taken in Raid," said a recent adline. After which, we presume, they will try to make it fluid.
