“Love Psychology” Urged
As a New College Study
Berkeley, Cal., June 9.—The Cam
pus Bee, a Unlveraity of California
student publication, In Its latest Issue,
makes a plea for university “credita"
for the study of "psychology of love,"
a subject now pursued by some of the
collegians without official recognition
of the university authorities.
IJan S. Maroich, publisher, and one
of the editors of the Bee, declares
that If the gentle hint of his maga
zine la not given attention by the
college officials, petitions to the re
gents may be drafted to place the
study of love psychology on a par
with that of zoology, Chinese history,
Sanskrit and other subjects for which
credits toward graduation are award
ed.
In defending the proposed Ipnova
tlon, the Bee Buzzes as follow*:
"Love, and hate, and jealousy, *n<l
ambition; personal rivalries, anneal
conflicts, emotional struggles— thsas
are the very staff of life. Kvery fam
ily and every community Is a lab
oratory of them. And there are more
text books of them than of all other
subjects combined. All poetry, all
Imaginative literature, and most bi
ography and history deal with them.
"Most stories are love stories, moetj
poetry is love poetry, and most of the
Joy and sorrow, the comedy, the glory
and the tragedy of life turn upon
love. It is central to everything but
the school.
‘'But the school is the descendant
of the cloister. And cloister knew not
love."

Seeking and Finding
One of Omaha's fine editorial writers
speaks of O. Henry's story of the little
dog. The dog, Cf. Henry said, lived with
a very ordinary couple in a very ordinary
little flat, in which was a very ordinary
little bay window where he lay for hours
every day in the sunshine, looking down
at the other dogs on the street and won
dering when he was going to have hts
day. But the little dog had "his day,”
had he but known it. He bad his com
fortable surroundings and his sunshine.
He could, had he but known bow to do it, enjoy the fun which
the dogs in the street rere having. All he need have done was
to learn to obtain pleasure in the happiness of others and to
appreciate the blessings he already had. That’s a simple little
story, but we really find our best lessons in simple tales.
In the story of 0. Henry's dog we obtain the hint that the
greatest happiness is won by those who learn—and never for
get—to appreciate the simple blessings. There are so many
men and women who are strong and healthy, yet who habitually
bemoan their •’misfortunes.” Let them look at the crippled, tbe
Insane or tbe sick. Then they will be tempted to blush for their
lack of appreciation.
There are those who not only have three meals a day, but
have the rapacity to digest them—ham hock, cabbage and all.
Let them think of the multimillionaire who could buy a ware
house full of food, but can hardly digest a plate of Ice cream.
There are those who envy tbe rich In their ability to take
long Journeys; but sometimes the richest are taking these Jour
neys simply because they are still searching for the happinees
which their money has never bought. They have not learned
that happiness is at their feet rather than at the rainbow’s
end, and they are searching—ever searching.
There are rich people who are happy, but their happiness
does not come from their wealth. It comes to the rich, even as
to the so-called poor, through "perpetual quietness of heart-"
It comes only to those who have the vision to see beauty every
where—in the unnumbered blades of grass that now combine to
make a veritable carpet for this grand old earth of ours, in the
vagrant but beautiful blossom that passes for a weed, or In the
noble peony, grander and nobler at this time than in all its
proud career.
It Is In "the constant, conscious capacity to understand
Good’’—rather than in tbe possession of gold—that man finds bis
genuine Joy.

! spreading as well, and it's just about the most comfort
able thing you can put on.

proves your game” no matter if it be golf, bridge or just
being ornamental.
The Netherall is three garments in one—vest, bust con
finer and girdle, and yet it takes but n minute to adjust.
Easily laundered, too—tub it like a pair of silk hose.
Made of summer mesh, silk Milanese and various com
binations to suit individual preferences. The colors are

"It Beautifies as it Encircles"
No more bulges at the shoulders or under the arms. A Circlet
seems to dissolve them. Actually, it distributes the flesh so
equally that your figure takes on new smooth, symmetrical
lines so supple and lithe looking. A Circlet fits as well every
time you wear it— after laundering, too. It's self-ad iustable.
The model pictured at 1.00 is extraordinary value. Pink or
