I was first put through the treasurer's de partment Such work was routine and detail, dealing with bond receiv ing, syndicate operations, customer securities, transfers and acceptances. In the acceptance department, we carried an inventory of around seven millions. I think fchat bonds wortn $27,000,000 was the greatest quan tity I handled on any one day.

"Y" SECRETARY MAKES SPEECH Arthur Jorgenson Addresses World Forum at Weekly Luncheon. SPEAKER DISCUSSES ORIENTAL PEOPLES The characteristics of the Oriental peoples, their philosophy and views of life were discussed by Arthur Jorgen sen, general secretary of the Univer sity Y. M. C. A., at the World Forum luncheon at the Grand Hotel Wednes day noon. "Most of the characteristics of the Japanese, Chinese, and Korean views "an be traced to the influence of two men Confucius and Buddhu," said Mr. Jorgensen. "The moral and ethic code of these peoples and their stabil ity and reasonableness are the result of the teachings of Confucius. Their tenderness, regard for beauty, and most important of all their extreme tolerance are the results of Budd ha's work." Mr. Jorgensen deplored the fact that so little emphasis is put on the study of Oriental history in the unl versities of American and European countries. He read statements from a number of authorities which ex plained the high point to which the Oriental civilization had been devel oped long before the Western world had accomplished anything. Oriental Are Peaceful. The reasonableness and tolerance of the Orientals are one of their out standing characteristics the speaker said. Because of their love of the reason and belief that upon reason all things can proceed, the Oriental nations have been through the great er part of their history, a peaceful and unwarlike people. Not until the influences of the West were incorpor ated into their consciousness did they learn the art of war. The speaker cited the fact that we have ever been prone to laugh at the war methods of the East saying that they did not fight like men. It was not until the last rebellion in China that a Christian general de clared that in that war there would be no play, that the war was going to be fought like a real war, and the battles would be real battles. The in troduction of Western excuses and methods of war has gone against the inherent characteristics of the Orien tal peoples. Hare High Culture. Because of their love for peace, the Oriental peoples become beauty-loving and cultured, according to' the speaker. Such was another charac teristic which was developed by their religious leaders and by their atti tude toward life. One writer was quoted who said that he never real ized how close to perfection, cul tured living could attain until he en tered a Japanese home. Thus, one of the characteristics of the Oriental developed by his religious leaders and his attitude toward life was that of cultured living. Characteristic of agricultural soci eties, the Oriental has always been noted for his stability. There was little of friction and unrest a factor which aided the other attributes which were mentioned. With the in troductions of Western methods of manufacture, industry and competi tive military activity some of this sta bility has vanished, according to the sneaker. The characteristics mentioned, Mr. Jorgensen said were not entirely at tributable to the religious attitude or the general philosophy of life of the Oriental peoples, but might be the composite of many varied influences. However, the attitude toward life and the teaching of the religious leaders have strengthened and centralized such attitudes. ' , I GEORGIA SCHOOL OF TECH NOLOGY Recently the college flag pole was topped by the banner of the class of '28. When the upperclass- men gathered to take the flag down, difficulties were encountered. The main difficulty was not in the fact that the flag was flying, the ropes cut and the pole greased, but in the fact that the flag had to come down. Shots were fired and pole climbing was tried before the freshmen rallied to their flag and then cne sophomores fought a losing battle. Tne next day with the co-operation of the fire de partment the flag was lowered. Later at a meeting of the sophomore class, some form of punishment was dis cussed and a special effort is to be made to inflict some hardship on the first year men who live in town and are not susceptible to most of the rules governing the freshmen. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN When the coveted 'W's" are awarded this year, the name of Herbert Op lits will be included in the list of the football team.

TO SPEAK TODAY ON CHILD LABOR Mrs. Williams Will Address League of Women Voters in Faculty Hall. "No child labor law up to the pres ent time has prohibited domestic or agricultural labor," declares Mrs. II. P. Williams, who will speak at a meeting of the Junior League of Women Voters this afternoon in Fac ulty Hall at the Temple at 5 o'clock. Mrs. Williams, who is an associate professor of practical sociology at the University, will discuss the proposed child labor amendment which will come up before the Nebraska legisla ture for ratification this spring. She will explain the difference between child work and child labor which is so often confused and which is of prime importance in this, an agricul tural state. , Because there has been so much interest shown in the discussion of the marriage law, James E. Lawr ence, managing editor of the Lincoln Star and an associate professor in the School of Journalism, has con sented to speak against the law on January 13. Many have heard the arguments which have been advanced in support of the bill; they should be no less interested in hearing the other side of the question.

GEORGIA SCHOOL OF TECH NOLOGY It is said that if students marry at Baylor, the couple must spend a year's honeymoon outside of college. At Wellesley, they manage these things differently. The college gives a course in love and marriage; and the lovelorn and broken hearted student received first aid on the campus.

It has been known for some time that Professor Baker, now enjoying a year's leave from Harvard, had re ceived offers from several univer sities. The Harvard Crimson con ducted ja vigorous campaign urging the authorities to retain Baker at any cost. On learning of the move of Pro fessor Baker, President A. Lawrence Lowell of Harvard wrote to Mr. Baker and said that he was sorry to have him leave, "But the gift to Yale of one million dollars supplies an endowment which does not exist else where." In answer to this statement the Harvard Crimson then editorilized: "Never was excuse more self-accusa-i tory, or evasion more transparent If official permission had been grant ed, an endowment of one million dollars, or of twice that sum, could have been raised for the drama at Harvard. But permission was not granted. Professor Baker was ac tually forbidden to raise the money." CLOSE TICKET SALES TODAY Sale of Pasteboards for Annual Cornhusker Banquet Is Successful.
