"LADIES OF JURY"
(Continued from Page 1.)
sonality in persuading the other
eleven members of the jury that
the young girl is not guilty.
The eleven remaining jurors
took their parts equally welj and
each represented an excellen bit
of character study. DeLellis Shra
mek, who returned from David
City to take part in the special
showing, used her slang as the
hard boiled chorus girl in a con
vincing manner. Ralph Ireland, as
Tony who becomes enamored by
the charms of the chorus girl,
made a good partner and the two
offered many entertaining bits of
comedy. . ,
Mildred Bickley as the old maid
with strict religious views was
one of the laxt to be convinced.
Pauline Gellatly played the sweet
young thing and Herb Yenne re
cited poetry and sentimental selec
tions to win the fair damsel while
the jury was considering whether
to save or condemn the woman on
trial.
Mary Katherine Throop as Mrs.
Dace, the young southern bride,
became quite hysterical when she
found that she was not able to
be with her husband, to whom she
had been married just one week.
The offer to become cook for
Mrs. Crane was too much for Nora
Osborn, who as Mrs. McQuire did
an entertaining bit of folk danc
ing, and she straightway decided
that the woman was innocent.
Dorothy Zimmer, as the woman
accused of murdering her husband,
and Charlotte Wells, as the maid
who testifies against the defend
ant in a manner which sets the
audience to wondering if she isn't
too interested, played their parts
in a realistic manner.
Those taking the parts of the
other characters on the jury
brought out character in an enter
taining manner which kept the
play moving a, a rapid pace.
All equipment and the time of
those taking part in the produc
tion were donated toward the
scholarship fund for students in
the dramatic depaitrnent which
wan cstablibhed with the proceeds.
BETWEEN CLASSES
By Jack Erickson
Is it coming to this ?
FORT WORTH, Tex. Citl
zenship was denied here to Elihu
D. Ryden, dean of Southwestern
junior college at. Keene, Tex.,
when he told Judge Ames E..
Wilson he could not shoulder
arms for the United States in
case of war. He came to Amer
ica thirty years ago from
Sweden. Ryden said "killing is
contrary to the principle of
Christianity."
And this is the United States. It
is 1931. We claim to be a civilized
people. But it seems that our citi
zens must all be prepared to be
killers.
AS long as present day poets
continue to exhibit their mod
ernistic flare I personally submit
the following delightful snitch of
verse which was produced by a
two year old gorl:
Hear the wind!
The wind is a doggie behind the
house;
The wind is a big doggie up in
the trees!
Those lines, my reader, seem to
me to rank right up with the best
of modernistic verse attempts. One
may pick a magazine practically
any day now and find something
like this but not quite like it:
Pastel colored life!
It is life because it is alive.
Yes, alive, like the dreamy shell
of dirty cream which surrounds
the comforting insides of
A hard-boiled egg.
That's life!
AS IT MIGHT BE.
(But probably isn't.)
President Hoover is fishing
oreamly at his over-publcized
Rapidan camp. He pauses to
frown as an under-secretary
rushes breathlessly in.
SECRETARY: What is this talk
of a moratorium which the papers
are ballyhooing?
DR. HOOVER: The fish don't
seem to be biting so well today,
Roofus.
SEC: But Doctor, the people
are beginning to talk.
DR.: Hand me the green spinner,
will you?
SEC: I read today that France
is causing trouble.
DR.: France?
SEC: France.
DR.: Well Andy Meloln is over
there by this time isn't he? and
Stimson, and the diplomats ?
SEC: They are.
DR.: Help me carry these fish
back to camp.
THE new Vanity Fair has an
1 amusing, but slightly harsh,
section entitled "Who's Zoo."
Herein are published photographs
of a number of the national "big
shots" and alongside the repro
duction of an"nimal which bears
a striking likeness. Col. Wicker
sham reposes benignedly beside a
contented walrus. Herbert Hoover
is side by side with a common bull
dog. John D. Rockefeller has a
loris for a companion. Mussolini
is portrayed with a giant gorilla
acting as a counter-part. Writer
Alexander Wolcott has a monkey
faced owl beside his photo. Albert
Einstein-is represented among the
animals by the dreamy face of a
poodle dog. Evolutionists will be
interested in this section.
DECENT press dispatches tell of
the manner in which the forty
four hour week regulation has cre
ated 1,200 more jobs for railway
mail clerks. In just such a man
nerthe shortening of working
hours, creating a demand for more
men seems to lie the solution to
the country's problem of unem
ployment. It is perfectly obvious
that such a system can only be
made thru a concession of the part
of those who run our large cor
porations and industrial plants.
Thpy may be content to get along
as things are now since machines
eliminate the need for a large
force of men. But If the country
is to be saved from a distressing
set of circumstances there is no
other way out. Industrial leaders
siiaH have to sacrifice.

Tiny Tots Play in Old Fashioned
Garden at Bancroft This Summer
By ZELLA M. ANDREWS.
One corner of the Bancroft
school ground resembles a tiny old
fashioned garden of bright hued
flowers; poppies, johnny-jump-ups,
pansies, buttercups, painted dais
ies, as fifteen tiny tots of the
nursery school, each with a flower
like face, bob up here and there
during their half-hour of outdoor
play from 11 to 11:30 o'clock each
day.
The nursery school, sponsored
by the Teachers' College of the
university, is under the direction
of Miss Clara Evans, who with
four assistants, Miss Florence
Binkley, Miss Elizabeth Barber,
Miss Katherine Gilger, and Miss
Elizabeth Reimers, direct the ac
tivities of the children each morn
ing. The names of the tots enrolled
follow: Stephen Flansberg, Louise
Carter, Sally O'Shea, Kellogg Wil
son, Janet Jones, Billy Kimball,
Rosemary Kimball, Junior Bize,
Jimmey Woester, Beberly Batty,
Dick Russell, Donald Pegler,
Bobby Skinner, Roger Stuart, and
Jane Waters.
Only children of pre-school age,
three to five years, are enrolled.
When the tots arrive in the morn
ing, they are inspected by the doc
tor, and no child is admitted who
has a cold, or the symptom of any
disease. Thsy then go to a large
south room with planty doors and
windows which stand wide open to
admit plenty of air and sunlight.
The room is made attractive with
bright pictures, curtains ferns and
flowers, and a rock garden with
gold fish, turtles, and tadpoles in
the tiny pool. A yellow canary
adds hi3 bit of color to the scene,
and merry music to the prattle
of the babes.
From 9 to 10, in this play school,
the children are free to follow
their own inclinations, so long they
respect the , rights of others. All
anti-social tendencies are promptly
checked. As fancy dictates, they
play at block building, clay model
ling, at the sand tables with bright
colored buckets, or with numerous
toys and other devices for play.
Ac 10 o'clock play stops, and the
children put away their toys, clean
up the room, and wash their faces
and hands. The room, then, is
darkened, and each child lies down
on his little rug to rest for ten
minutes. After the rest, comes
lunch. And what a delightful pic
ture this happy group seated at
their little tables as they arc
served with a cup of orange juice
and wafers. Following lunch is
rhythm time when they skip and
run to music. What fun they have!
Preceding dismissal for the day,
the tots enjoy a half hour of out
door play at sandpiles, and the
many devices for exercise that
children love. And then home to
tell mother and daddy all about it.
The nursery school develops the
children naturally and along all
lines. "In my estimation, the
nursery school has three mis
sions," said Miss Evans. "It looks
after the best physical develop
ment of the child, the highest men
tal development, and the most im
portant of all, the social adjust
ment." Here in this little play school,
these tots are learning one of the
biggest lessons of life. For after
all is said and done, is not learn
ing to live together, the big prob
lem today?

LAZERTE DISCUSSES
CANADIAN SYSTEM
' (Continued from Page 1.)
tendance from seven to fifteen
years are strictly enforced. There
are no semesters in the Canadian
system. In the high school the
student pursues the course thmout
the entire year. At the end of
that time he takes an examination
sent out and graded by the central
ffice.
About 20 percent of the students
in each grade fail. Most of the
schools are public schools since all
must meet the requirements of the
central office and come under its
inspection. Under the process of
elimination, those students who
would not profit by higher educa
tion are weeded out before they
reach the university. The Cana
lian system does not aim to edu
cate all. Professor Lazerte pointed
out, but only those who have
ability.
- That secondary education was
not looked upon as being for the
adolescent child in Canada was
deplored by the professor. "It is
looked upon as an education that
children with ability should have,"
he stated.
There are few junior high
schools and few kindergartens. In
the few junior highs which are
established, five courses are
offered. They are normal training,
leading to the normal school; ma
triculation, leading to the univer
sity; agricultural; technical, de
signed to take care of the misfits
in the academic school, and the
general, which in a way recognizes
the needs of the adolescent. In the
field of higher learning, the "Pass"
course requires but four years to
complete, while the "Honor" course
requires five.
Most of the universities arc- ptate
institutions. The student finishes
four years in the arts college be
fore he begins his work in educa
tion, but is enrolled for this dur
ing his second year so that the
department may supervise his
courses. He has one optional
study each year, otherwise bis
courses arc requirements.
"Newer tendencies In education
are springing up in western Can
ada which is more open to prog
ress and scientific investigation,"
Profesor Lazerte said, in conclu
sion. "There is a tendency to be
conservative, for we are afraid of
standardization, yet everything is
standardized; fixed textbooks,
fixed course of study, fixed regula
tions. There is a lack of flexi
bility. We are afways conscious
of two influences; the Scotch-English
system and the United States
system. Changes come slowly, but
we are hopeful."
