On Sale at RAG OfflCE Room 7, Admin. Bldg. Washington Man Fires Hot 8hots at Would-be Tradition Makers. The University of Washington stu dents and some of the faculty have been rocontly searching for traditions. It is asserted that thoso aro nodded to give Washington a "collogo spirit." Some of the faculty don't agroo. The following from the Dally Wave re lates tho latcBt In tho casos: "There Is a lamontablo lack of tra ditions in the UnlvofBlty of Washing ton. They should bo multitudinous since during one month Tho Dally Wave announces the 'Inauguration' of no less than six traditions. What has become of tho babies?" Tho above Is the editorial note at tho head of an article In tho Novotnbor Alumnus, on tltlod "Horn A Tradition." The ar ticle Is written by Jool .lohanson, '03, and in part Is as follows: Tradition implies, Ilrst of all, re spect for the past and Unit Is tho very essential point that has boon overlooked In all tho sporadic at tempts to foster tho growth of tradi tion in the university. Tho crazo Is to ilnd something now, something unusual, something strango; to do something never done in tho previous history of the university; to originate something and label it "Tradition" and then to llo back, fond ly hoping It will become so in fact. But the noxt class is equally ambiti ous; It promptly rejects this, searches In turn for tho original idea, which In turn Biiffors tho same oxperlonco. "It was onco my good fortuno to attend for throo years a foreign uni versity, noted the world ovor for Its extreme conservatism and for Its wealth" of traditions. I found on my arrival thoro that evon its vory llfo was aradltional. Nearly all tho cus toms of dally llfo woro Inexplicable to me until, examining Into tho IiIb tory of tho university, I found there the origins of all thoso strango cus toms. With the studonts It waB mere ly a matter of following in tho foot steps of their predecessors without questioning 'Why?' or 'Wherefore?' "In all the three years that I spent in this university, however, I never once heard the word 'Trudltlon' men tioned. 1 imagine that In most col leges where thero are traditions there is little said about them. But among the students of our university a great deal ol talk' about traditions seems to make up for a lack of them. "It were far bettor to drop tho word 'Traditions' from tho collogo vo cabulary and glvo up tho mado-whllo-you-walt Idea. Endeavor sincerely to retain tho customs that we have; re vive some of the good customs that were onco observed In the university, Ad thus, by observing a due respect for the past, In turn obtain rospect fiom tho future." by Mrs. Evolyn Wright Allan, dean of tho women students of tho university. As a consequence tho co-ods nro up In haughty arms at what they call an attack on their privileges, tholr dignity and their taste. Following are tho rulos to bo ob served by the co-ods at Stanford as laid down to them by Mrs. Allan: 1. Women studonts must not ap pear on the quad or about tho uni versity buildings wearing frou frou skirts. 2. Light dresses, and particularly "peek-a-boo" waists, should not bo worn at university exorcises. It. Women students must not wear hosiery of light or pastel shades. 1. Men and women studentB must not stroll together in tho evening In single couples. '). Light in dormitories and house clubs must be extinguished by 10 o'clock every evening. I! SttulonlH of the university must satisfy themselves with fewer social activities. 7 All men students calling on women students In tho evening must hae said their good-byes and taken their departures prior to 10 o'clock. CHICAGO IN BAND-WAGON. ARE UNKNOWN HEROES DR. HOWARD ADDRE88E8 MEET ING OF ENGINEERING SOCIETY. TELLS Of WORK Of ENGINEERS Large Number of Engineering Stu dents and Professors Hear Doctor Howard Speak Talks About an Hour. Enforces Rule for Segragatlon of Men and Women Students. The university authorities will take a decided stand on tho question of rooming house landlords who take student roomers and register at tho information bureau. Proofs of a con tract agreement, which all such pro prietors will bo compelled to Blgn, beginning next quarter, were lssuod yesterday, and demand In a general way that the flat keepers co-operate with the university In making the housing wclfaro of students as idoal as possible. One of the striking features of the instructions Is that they insist on comfort for women. Thoy require that reception room accommodations be furnished the women students, so that they may have callers. Further exhibition of the university attitude In favor of segregation Is demonstrated In the provision that men and women should not be taken In at the same house. It is asked of thoso who enter their rooms in the register, that thoy agree to look out for tho moral welfare of the students. Just what this meant was in doubt, untlF. it was explained by one of tho Interpreters that stu donts aro to bo advised to keep good hours. TABOO ON "PEEK-A-BOO" WAISTS. Dean Heed of Michigan declares that the faculty gives athletes a square deal. He thinks that a student who believes that work is made harder for tho team men does not know enough to be in athletics and should be kept out.

Missouri Is slightly ahead of DePauw, as the In auguration takes place at Missouri, Deceiuber 10 and 11. A rather unusual meeting was held Wednesday evening by the engineer ing socloty of the university. Pro fessor George Howard, head professor of the department of political science and sociology of tho University of Ne braska, addressed tho socloty on the subject. "The Place of the Engineer in Society." The meeting wns held in Science hall of the Temple, and a large gathering or engineers was in attendance. This meeting is only one of a large number that are being held this year by the engineering society. Tho meet ings aro usually addressed, however, by professional engineers, who give the society the benefit of tho Informa tion they have learned through long practical oxperlonco. Among such men was tho superintendent of tho Lin coln Gas company, who recently ad dressed the society. Engineers Are Present. A large attendance of engineers heard Doctor Howard speak. At tho mooting was given under tho auspices of tho Engineering socloty and tho subject was engineering in its nature, tho audience was largoly composed of engineering professors and studonts. Dr. Howard was Introduced by Mr. Fulton, president of the Engineering society, and spoke for about an hour. Dr. Howard declared that he had the highest respect for the engineer, the man who was practical and could work with his hands. The engineers who are forced to bravo great dangers to build such great works as trans continental railroads aro the heroes that are not heard of. Dr. Howard discussed tho advisa bility of an engineering studont at tempting to take oloctric work out side of tho department, and declared that as conditions are at tho present time It Is not advisable. It Is better for the enginer to stick to his course. Thero Is a tendency, however, In tho high schools of the state to do prep aratory work that under present con ditions must be done at the university. It Is the plan of tho engineering so ciety to hold meetings every two weeks at which engineering subjects will be discussed. These meetings aro usually well attended and show tho in terest which engineers are taking in their work.
