UP COLLEGE STUDENT
President Storey Tells
Relation of Studies
To Activities.
of
"Just how much does one benefit
from his activities record In com'
pariaon with his scholastic stand'
Ing during his undergraduate
career, in the opinion of a prospec
tive employer?" This question has
long been one of controversy And
subject to many varying view
points. William B. Storey, presi
dent of the Atchison, Topeka And
Santa Fe railway system. And a
famous predictor of future busi
ness conditions, in an interview
given the Pennsylvanian, gives his
views upon this subject:
"In giving consideration to the
application of a college man for a
position," he declared, 'we would
not necessarily be governed either
by his activities record or ty nis
scholastic grades. Both of these
would have to be taken into con
sideration in sizing up the man
and therefore the question is really
not answerable. I think that any
man will reach the same conclu
sion from his college experience
"A man may be first class so far
aa his activities record is con
cerned but this would not be con-
elusive if his scholastic record
were bad. On the other hand, a
man mipht stand very high in his
studies and be totally unfit for any
position in business, owing to his
inability to mix wuu people ana
to properly direct any work thAt
may fall to bis lot.
"In forming a judgment as to
a man, everything about him has
to be taken into account his abil
ity to meet men. his capacity for
work, his accuracy and the possi
bility for development."

Menu for Greek Letter Organizations
A direct aid to university stu

of the departmental staffs of the

The purpose of these sugges

Indignant About
Change in Style
Six thousand girls At Hunter
college have talked over the new
longskirted styles, and nearly
three-fourths of the total made A
formal protest against the innova
tion. Almost every day some one
becomes violent over the new
fashions.
Many women who knew the dis
comforts of stays And voluminous
gowns get excited at the unhappy
prospect of returning to that
hampering clutch. It is really not
at All surprising that they should
object to something that reminds
them of the old days preceding
their emanclpa;'on.
The young things who rebel
seem less credible. Little girls
have always loved to dress up in
mother's clothes, and the college
girls of today have been deprived
of that privilege. At least, if they
did put on a grown-up rrocK, it
was lust like their own in its
straight lines and short skirts
Now they have a chance to swish
about haughtily in flowing silks,
and If they exclaim that they don't
want to, it is hard to believe them.
Males Are Amused.
The male sex has been grinning
from ear to ear at the advent of
the new styles And the apparent
relinquishment of the freedom
which the fair sex won after a
long fought battle.
A news statement by the stylists
or the woman garment trade,
who have lust ended their conven
tion In Cleveland, reported that the
trend, far from being toward
longrer garments, which they be
lieve will be but a short lived Tad,
is more toward the bifurcated
skirt, if not actual trousers. This,
they believe, will not affect eve
ning wear, which conceivably could
return permanently to length.

YALE STUDENTS HEAR RUTH.
TALE UNIVERSITY, New
Haven, Conn. The music business
is thriving in this college man's
town.
Last week the proprietor oi a
music store near the Yale campus
advertised that Ruth Etting. who
is appearing in the "9:15 Revue"
would sing popular songs in his
establishment between designated
hours.
By the time Mis Etting had
sung her first number hundreds of
Yale students were "crasning tne
gate" and pressing their way to
ward the piano. Some, gaining en
trance through the second story
window, slid down the bannisters
and jammed their way into the
shop.
A hurry call was sent for tne
emergency police squad. But u
was too late. Miss Etuar was
forced to flee throught the back
door with pianos, radios and phon-
graphs piled in a hopeless aeons
behind her.

for every day's menu. These clas
ses are:
1. Milk; at least one pint for
each person each day. Once each
day serve the following; ta). Co
coa made from milk, a milk soup,
or milk dessert (custard, corn
starch pudding, either plain or as
pie filling), tapioca, ice cream,
etc.; (b), use part of the milk in
cooking; (c), serve the remainder
plain to drink.
2. Vegetables; at least one be
side potatos, preferably two, to be
selected from the following partial
list of suggested vegetables; as
paragus, beans string, lima, navy
or red kidney,, beats, cabbage,
carrots, spinach, cauliflower, cel
ery, corn, greens, lettuce, onions,
oyster plant, parsley, peas, pep
p e r s, rut abagas, sauerkraut,
squash, turnips, etc.
3. Fruit, fresh, dried or canned
at least once, preferably twice A
day. The palatabillty of fruit as a
desert is often neglected; the oc
cassional use of oranges or ta a
less extent grape fruit is desirable
for their vitamlne content
4. Meat; once a day and egg or
other protein food such as cheese,
beans, peas, peanutbutter or occa
sionally a second meat.
5. Some breakfast cereals or
bread msds from whole grains,
such as, oat me a1, wheatena, a max,
shredded wheat, etc, white bread,
graham bread, or rye bread.
e. Fv'alo, sweet potato, rice or
macaroni; white potato being pre- ;

Psychology Professor Recommends
More Concentration in Study Hours
There are four ways in which
one can better his marks says
Richard Wellington Husband, as
sistant professor of psychology At
the University of Kentucky.
"Make a strong start, and keep
working steadily, even if not A
great deal, and your grades are
sure to make an improvement
Start off the semester with A
bang. The professors and instruc
tors form their opinions of the
students in the first few classes.
If you make a good impression,
you are likely to raise your marks.
But," points out Husband, "be
cause you make a good impression
the first day, don't let your work
lapse. Keep up the first class
work, and watch your marks
grow."
. iiecommends Concentration.
Work while you work is the sec
ond rule to follow, if ore is to use
Mr. Husband's suggestions in rais
ing his marks. Work for half an
hour or an hour, and be sure that
it is real work. Don't sit with A
phonogrsph playing in one ear
while you are reclining in an easy
chair, and think you are studying.
Rather, put in some steady bard
work for a time, and then enjoy
the rest of the afternoon in your
leisure.
Very few students take notes
that are adequate. Learn to get
the main points of the lectures.
Many students make isolated
statements relating to the lecture
subject. Instead, Husband sug
gests, make complete paragraphs
of the material. Write your notes
in such a minner that they will be
of value next June at exam time.
Don't Bluff.
Review the notes or the previous
lectures for about fifteen minutes
before starting the new lesson. It
is human nature to not retain all
that one reads or hears. If each
student would spend the extra few
minutes on the lecture notes, he is
almost certain of having his
grades go up at least one letter.
Bluffing is the poorest sort of
college work that one can do. All
of the teachers can detect a bluff

Morton Prints Opinions of Teachers
Whether or Not College Helped Them
rrof. W. H. S. Morton, prin
cipal of the teachers college high
school, has published a pamphlet
containing the unbiased opinions
of 503 teachers on the question
of. "Hss Our College Education
Given You Any Definite Help?'
The pamphlet csme off the press
Isst week. Professor Morton dealt
with the teachers and not with
the superintendents. The teachers
were employed in eighteen of the
larger achools of the state. The
pamphlet contains 3,J.r5 problems.
in reply to tnese prooiems m
readily. If you don't know some
thing, admit it. And you will be
raised in the esteem of the
teacher. Of course, don't do too
much admitting.
Stick to Question.
"When writing exams, stick to
the point of tne question asked.
Don't put in a lot of hogwash and
bluff. Wait until you see your
grade before starting to crow
about how you never beard of the
question before, but succeeded in
writing four pages, thus fooling
the prof. It rarely does fool him."
These suggestions all lead back
to the two underlying ways of be
coming better educated. First,
put in more time on your work,
and second, spend this time more
efficiently.
