have a decided educational value
Different environment has served to
give them different notions from those

altv or correctness of their views wil
become aparent when voiced In Buch
an organization as the Open Forum
As to any unwholesome effects
that might come from discussions of
the kind contemplated we can only
say that college students should have
a training and maturity whlcn win
enable them to diocrlminate between
the good and the bad, the true and
the false.
Wholehearted enthvsiasm coupled
with proper management should com
bine to make the Open Forum club
a profitable organization. Ex.

Freshman Discipline
Freshmen are beginning to be in-
itlatod into the rites of the infant
clan. Worthy agitation has been
started to prevnt their making. dates
for football games.
Freshmen mean well enough in
making dates for football games, but
the trouble Is that they have been
feasted and: courted for a week and
it is only natural that , they should
begin to consider . themselves com
petent: to manage their own social
affairs. .This of course is an unwar
ranted : assertion as , any upperclass
maa ; will readily ; admit. Freshmen
need: someone to hold them down in
the matter- of making dates. , If it
were not for such activity as this
anti-date propaganda, freshmen would
be making dates, for the nightshirt
praade. So the fatherly . upperclass
men, who never, never take a. date
to a .football. game, have to warn, their
freshmen to lead the simple life. Ex.
Politics Again
Now cometh your class .' politician
with glad hand extended. He wears
a smile reaching from ear to ear and
his words are pjeasant Your studies
interest him and he too would take
them if It wasn't for something else
that was required. Your Ideas . on
weather .football" prospects, woman's
suffrage, preparedness are the same.
And as he turns down another street,
he hopes that you can give hlra your
vote at the class electlon-Ex
A Good Ex'a'rwpls V '
As an example of "what 'Ought to
be more common on ,the. campus, the
north wall of Spooner Library might
be cited. Virginia creeper has been
run up between the windows and now
students entering the campus on Oread
Avenue pass not a bleak, ugly wall I
but one half-hidden with heavy foliage,
Such a wall is productive of tradition,
It has a touch of mellowness which
breaks down the severity so prevalent
on our campus and enriches the pic
ture which we carry away of Mount
Oread.
Training thes creepers over other
buildings on the campus is one way
we can repair the atrocities which
have been committed her In the name
of architecture. Ex.
Getting a Start
It Is a serious fact that the reputa
tion a man makes and the standard
he sets in the first six weeks of the
first year usualy serve as an index
to his standing in the entire college
course. Rumors have been rife that
some of the professors In our Alma
Mater do not even grade a student's
paers nor listen to his recitations, but
ust go to the office and look up his
record for the first six weeks, and give
him the average- they And there. Of
course, that's rot, out the fact re
mains that If a student does well at
first, he usually gets along well in
the' course, and If he does poorly his
grade on the course is low.
So let's "crack to It." Ex.
The United States government has
undertaken a thorough investigation

rialte Friday In which three men
were killed and a dozen wounded.
MOVIES" IN THE CHURCHES
railed Silent 8ermons and Have Be.
come -Exceedingly Popular In
Numerous Sections.
Hundreds of churches throughout
the country are now equipped with
all the machinery used for giving mov
ing picture shows. The church movie,
which has aptly been called the si
lent sermon, Is proving a great suc
cess' In attracting large congregations.
A great variety of special Alms
have been prepared suitable for such
use, and a clergyman In selecting a
subject to his taste flndB a surprising
variety to choose from. There are
films suitable for sermons on all the
commandments, as well as many of
the most familiar texts in the Bible.
Several of the firms making a special
ty of such films Issue regular cata
logues to assist clergymen In select
ing silent sermons.
In scores of churches the projecting
machines are part of the church furni
ture. The rigid laws laid down, by
the Are departments apply as well to
churches as to theaters and the ma
chines must be set up in fireproof me
tallic rooms. The electric wiring u
arranged so that the sermon may tx
turned on conveniently In the. main
church auditorium or the lecture or
chapter rooms.
The screens and . the rest of the
equipment, are of. the usual standard
type. Many of the film houses which
supply churches have small theaters
or exhibition rooms where a clergy
man may have a trial exhibition of a
silent sermon before definitely order
Ing it
The film sermons are rented out at
regular rate, according to theli
length and the nature of the produc
tion. In producing these silent sen
mons a regular-church service is fol
lowed, consisting of the singing ot
fiymns, prayers and reading of the
lesson. The films are carefully timed I
to fit Into the place assigned them. j
Some of the catalogues of silent ser- j
mons suggest church services to ao -
company them,, giving the numbers ol
appropriate hymns and Scriptural les
6ons.
The Polymuriel Garment -Some
ladies ' in New York are at
work Just now hunting for the philoso
pher's stone. They claim to believe
that a -'polymuriel" garment in femi
nine dress can be designed that -will
suitably clothe every type of figure,
every age, for every occasion, every
day, from getting up to going to bed,
from " the period when the girl first
comes out of the nursery till she goes
to her grave.
The philosopher never found the
mythical stone that could turn every
thing to gold. , Clothes problems, Ilka
the poor, will be with us always. There
are ways andl. means of eliminating
some of the problems, and it Is pos
sible to reduce all fractions except the.
"vulgar fractions" of mathematics to
their lowest terms.
But It Is a foolish waste of time
and energy to hunt for the impossible.
And it is impossible to find one style
of dress suitable for everybody.
Nobody who is fastidious wishes to
wear one costume from early morning
till late at night. There is a positive
psychological benefit in the bath and
change of toilet that separate the
working hours of the day from the
hours of relaxation. Not even two (or
a collection of) "polymurlels" that
could be worn alternately would solve
our clothes needs. Suitable clothes
for street and travel, and business are
not suitable for Indoor wear. Belle

It is said Marconi has Invented a

Is going on within them. We hope
the inventor will give fair notice of
putting this invention on the market

It is one of the easiest in the world.
By steady application, combining con
