A Student .
The other day we ran across a stu
dent. He was playing when we tounu
him. We were trying to have him do
something. Of no avail. Ae discov
ered he was carrying an average num
her of hours, worked by a schedule
enjoyed the company of girls. Used
his thoughts when he studied, slept
eight hours every night, spoke little
and loafed less, knew what he was
after and saw a definite goal beyond
his commencement day. He does not
realize his good fortune.
If all the undergraduates were like
him what a mess of nonsense would
be swept from the campus. What a
saving to time! Ex.

Education and Creeds
Attendance at state schools has in
creased 3,324 in the past two years.
This indicates several tendencies. One
of them is the decline of small de
nominational schools.
Among other causes, the cold, frank,
penetrating studies of modern thought
have done a great deal of damage to
the small church school. What stu
dents are interested in now is fact,
not a creedal form of one religion.
Recent developments in psychology
and sociology have turned so much
light on conditions that were formerly
dismissed with a Scriptural reference
that the denominational school is hard
pressed to reconcile its own peculiar
I history and interpretation of the uni
verse wim me results or researcn. une
small school recently wrote to a large
university to secure a professor of
biology but specified that he must not
believe In evolution. That illustrates
the difficulty. Having a set of doctrine
to uphold, that is the first interest
Fact can be brought In only so long
as it harmonizes with preconceived
ideas.
This is not an incrimination of the
motives of denominational schools.
They mean well, but they have not

yet caught the spirit of modern edu
cation. They do not yet realize what
science has been doing for the past
half century.
Students are merely walking around
the wel meaning professor who mixes
his Calvanisra, or Methodism, or other
Ism with his biology and sociology
and psychology. Students prefer the
truth facts. They can make their
own creeds later. Ex.
and vest of a dozen or more dear
Jewels bf "prep" school days. But there
are trivial signs of growth and un
derstanding while the Freshman, still
holds to the use in thought or speech
of the term "after school.'
In the language of the University
student there is no "after Bcbool," and
strange as it may seem the forget
ting or this formerly useful phrase is
the one imperative step for the new
comer who would live the life which
Cincinnati offers. The Freshman looks
with a frown upon afternoon and Sat
urday classes. He wonders with.
some anxiety when his college work
will end. The only answer which he
can ever git is "In June, after the
final examinations."
The life of a university consists in
a class room of an Institutional and a
social activity, none of whose parts
carry an "in palys" or "out of shop" J
distinction, or course, stunenis no
not regard dancing as a highly intel
lectual achievement in itself nor do
half backs plunge through tackle with
miltonian sonnets upon their breath.
But all that we do, we do together
study together, play together. Our
hobbies are university activities, our
most serious purpose is firmly at
tached to college work. When a man
steps from lecture room to student
office he is not going from work to
play, but merely from one opportun
ity to another. The Cross Ton car,
to the university student, is no longer
a vehicle for transferring him to
school and from school, for this man
or this woman has entered a college
life of which they do not take leave
n the evenings. So strong is the
university tie in the case of the loyal
Cincinnati student that often whole
families are brought within the influ
ence of our community. I
This is the college life. Entrance .'
into it is not to be made in a day, I
but its benefits are surely worth the '
loosening of a few old bonds. The I
ears that have gone before it were
impler in their requirements, but
these years are rich for him who
would enjoy them rich in friendships,
rich in intellectual opportunities with
a richness which is greater than any
his most promising anticipation could
picture.

"After School"
The Freshman's head is in a whirl.
He is surrounded by strange faces,
strange places, strange custom. Many
strange and apparently impossible
things are expected of him and he
must learn to know all and do all be
fore he can hope for th recognition
of those who, one, two or three years
ago proved themselves better than
their own Freshman problems. In a
week or so the little girl who is proud
to place a '19 after her name rejoices
in the fact that she no longer needs
the aid of those gallant upper class
men in searching out her lecture room.
A short time later a glimpse into al
most any dark corner will reveal a
tearful youngster stripping his coat
League to Enforce Peace
In connection with a membership
campaign which it has just begun, the
League to Enforce Peace, recently or
ganized by Ex-President taft and
others, has just issued a pamphlet en
titled, "An (Appeal to Public Opinion,"
written by A. Lawrence Lowell, Presi
dent of Harvard University. Presi
dent Lowell points out that it is no
part or the organization's aims to
make any efTort to stop the present
European conflict, but that it is the
duty of the United States to lead in
the movement for a league of the
great powers, who shall agree not to
go to war with one another until their
quarrel has teen submitted to a court
or council of arbitration.
German Club Try-outs
The tryouts for the German Dra
matic Club will be held at the Temple

University of Minnesota. He spent
some of his time in the Cuyuma Iron

he did some personal research work.
He also spent some of his time fish
ing in the northern lakes, and tells
