even one meal a day to save money
to give. An opportunity to make
pledges payable March 1 will be giv
en to those students who are unable
to pay cash. Every students should
give until it hurts, and he should sac
rifice something to make his sub
scription as large as possible.

ready made group pledges averaging
$2.00 a member. The Sherwood Ed
dy executive committee pledged $400

KOSMET KLUB COMEDY
ON APRIL 24 OR MAY 1
The Kosmet Klub has been given
pormision by the committee on stu
dent orgaizations to present their an
nual musical comedy on Monday,
April 24, or Monday, May 1. It has
been customary In (ho parst to give
the performance the night before Ivy
Day but. this year Ivy Day will bo
postponed until Homecoming week in
June.
IN THE FAMINE AREA
People Eat Bark of Trees, Cats,
Dogs and Rats as Only Means
of Self-preservation,
Conditions in the famine urea are
indescribably horrible. When poopl;
will cat grass, the bark of trees, will
eat cats, dogs, rats and the i'ksh of
starved animals, they do t because it
is the only means of self preset va
tion. The bread the people in Rus
sia live on is made of a mixture of
acorns, barks and pig weed. The in
evitable results of such food d'sea&c
of all kinds have been as atal i.s
the famine itself.
A feeling of kinship exists between
students the world over. The students
of Europe are the produest 'ir.d stjr-
diest of European classes. They do
not ask for charity, the do not evn
whine. They stand squarely on both
feet, look the American students
straight in the eye and make the ap
peal to their fellows. They a,e net
beaten, indeed no, but for a time they
are hapdeapped. Thes starving stu
dents accept the aid given them as nn
obligation, the frst to be met when
conditions will permit. If America.!
students do not meet this pressing
need, it will not be adequately met.
Othmer English speaking natons will
do what they can but the principal
load must be borne by th United
States because she has far mote nn
spent resources than any other cour
try n the world. The aid given by
American students will do more than
anything else to build up a strong in
ternational tie between the Unite J
States and foreign countries.
The relief fund will be administered
through the committee of the w orld's
student Christian federation, under
the direction of Dr. John R. Mott.
Every penny subscribed in this driv;
w ill go towards buying food and cloth
ing for European students.
Directed by International Com.
The work is directed by an inter
national committee and has an inter
national staff. In every field the
staff is mixed. The relief is given
without reference to the religion, rac?
nationality, language or political pai'y
of the recipent. A starving Russian
it Austrian is a human biag and
nothing firther is asked by the Eu
ropean student relief.
The European student relief schen-e
has been endorsed by prominent msn
in every country. Herbert Hoover,
V. S. A., of the American reiiei ad
ministration, the world's greatest lood
economist and administrator; the
Right Hon. Lord Robert Cec'l, M.
chancellor of the University Bi;-
mingham; Hofrat Dr. Friedrich Hert-!
of the state department, Vienna, a
well known economist; Sir Ma.irice
de Bunsen, British ambassador to
Vienna; Frank Vanderlip, U. S. A.,
banker; Woodrow Wilson, U. S. A.;
Charles E. Hughes, U. S. A., a'l have
heartily endorsed the work of the fed
eration in letters and cablegrams to
the executives of the organization.
Of the relief work to be done in
Russia, President Harding has this to
say: "We do not recognize the gov
ernment of Russia, nor tolerate the
propaganda which emantes therefrom
hut hp do not forces the traditions
of Russian friendship. We may put
aside our consideration of all inter
national policies and fundamental
differences in government. The bis
thing is, the call of the suffering and
dying, and it is evident that unless
re'ief is afforded, the loss of l;f will
extend into many millions. America
cannot be deaf to such a call as that.
The American relief administration is
directed in Russia by rormer orncers
of our own armies and has demon
strated its ability to transpori and
distribute relief through America J
bands without hindrance or lo."
Why Can't A "Social Rules" Book
Be Issued Upon Registration
Girls! When you are Just iv fresh
man in the university and don't know
all the rules, isn't it just heart break
ing? Doesn't it mako you feel lik-i
thirty cents or loss? Really there
should be a complete set of rules, par
ticularly social, handed out in the
same envelope with registration cards
to all now girls, and perhaps boys
too. This would surely eliminate lots
of embarrassment.
When a frcBhman girl is In. lied to
her first uni formal and she is ail
enthused about it, and her heart
starts to hump every time she thinks
about it and she can't Veep her mind
on the lecture the "prof is giving
well it really is serious. Something
should be done. It w s suggested
that in a case of this 'sort H f hor
teachers should excuse her from cla.ss
a week before the formal and that
she bo allowed to remain quitely in
bed to "settle" her nerves in order
that she be in proper condition to at
tend the most important affair i.f her
life. It is all certainly a gre.it strain
and rest and quiet befoiehand, seems
the only possible resort. The strain
is even greater when (and this is of
ten the case) her "frat" sister has
arranged that she be escorted to the
fo' ma! by one of "the most popular
:e!'iiws" in school and that he fs not
;:lone popular but exceedingly hand
some and always wears "bell boitom"
trousers. This might necessitate a
two weeks rest before the affair.
Just as soon as Miss Freshman
finds out that she is going to Miis mag
nificent affair she breathlessly .lashes
to her room and pulls out lier entire
wardrobe to see what would be the
most appropriate things to wea Now,
understand, that it is the middle of
the year and she hasn't bad a min
utes time to buy a new dress. Even
if she had time she could cardly have
gotten a new gown because of fees
and books and other incidentals; any
way, she thought, her high school
graduation dress plenty good enough.
What is prettier than a Huffy, white,
chiffon, ruffled dress set olf- of
course, by a glorious corsage of either
red rose buds, purple violets, liilies
of the valley or orchids perhaps.
An escort like she is going with
would surely send his lady the most
wonderful corsage imaginab'e All
the other girls would look at her with
envy. A white fmck set off by lovely
flowers is a picture in itself. She
would depend entirely on the corsage
to assure her success and, naturally,
:t would.

Prominent Speaker.
"The world is facing threj great
problems" Sherwood Eddy stated to
over 3,000 students in his speech oa
The Solution of America's Problems
at St. Paul's church on Friday morn
ing. They are national strife, race
strife and industrial strife. Mankind
is on the march passing from auto
cracy to democracy rrom mignr. is
right. "Is the transition to be evolu
tion of revolution?" In Great Britain,
capital and labor are working together
they are thinking and trying to
solve the.r problems.
The solution may be arrived at by
combining conditions, and thre will
be the privilege of labor having &
voice and partial control in industry.
There will be a decentralization and
tendency toward local control, and
there will be an element of co-operation
between consumers and produc
ers for the welfare of all. "So on
or these would solve the problem it

After two or more weeks of tremb

arrives. Miss Freshman tins remained

arrival of her flowers. All day long

wagon. Every five or ten minutes slio
goes to the door to peek out Just to
see If the man didn't leave the box
on the front porch. All in vain! Tho
I line conies when she must bet,in to
dress (this is about 5 o'clock In the
afternoon, and the pasty is at 9.) No
flowers. Oh there must be gome- m's
iake, perhaps they went to tho wrong
house. Could it be that "he" didn't
send any? Why in high schools, when
big parties were given, the boys al
ways sent flowers. Could it be that
the most popular man in the univer
sity, the "adonis" of them all, could
turn out to be a "cheapskate?"
If those flowers wore not in her
possession by 9 o'clock, and thoy wcia
not, she would not go- Perhaps she
had better go but she would surely
give this, "hold on tt a dime' man
the "icy shoulder."
And that is the way it turned cut.
No flowers and an "icy shoulder."
The poor man could not tigure out thij
pretty little freshman, with the Huf
fy white dress. She hardly spoke to
him and when she did it was in the
form of a grunt. My what a fine
time they were going to have
"She" was thinking, all ths way
over to the ball room, how foolish
she would feel with all the other
girls wearing flowers; how shameful!
Why did she have to be emhunassed
like this?
They entered the ball-room. She
was afraid to notice any one for fear
they would remark about the "bare
ness" of her dress. She would face
it all, then talk about this cheap man
to all the girls and get them "down"
on him. She faced it not one girl
wore flowers and they were all haT
ing a perfectly "splooferous" time. It
dawned upon Miss Freshman that it
must be a university rule, not to send
flowers. How terrible she felt. How
like "thirty cents or les." An2 how
patient her escort had been, would he
ever forgive her. She would ask him.
Yes he did, the most popular man,
and the handsomest in school natu
rally would. It was all right now,
but why why had not some one told
her of the rule about sending flower3
to wear to farmals?
follows: personality-infinite worth
of every man; the principle of brother
hood we are bound together in one
human family all for each and each
for all; service not for monv grab
bing but to show that the object of
love is men, not money. B.'.scd on
these principles are liberty, juslio.
mercy and love, the full sharing of
life with limitless self-giving Sum
med up, these principles constitute
the yolden rule.
Some people say that yon ran't mix
'elicion and politics or religion and
work. They say the great thias. in the
world is money when the pyramids
r-.f Egypt were built ttie builders were
slaves whose lives were woith noth
ing but the work they could do for
their masters. Today Egypt Is seeth
ing with strife for a derujeracy. Kai
serism says war is a biological ner
essit. Jesus said brotherhood is a
biclopicpl necessity. Instead of love
some rcople give selfishness, .'nstead
of justice -injustice. The Etmming
up or tnese senisn rules makes uic
rule of gold instead of the golden
rule. "Which life are you go.ng to
live?" demanded Mr. Eddy.
The legitimate demands of labor.
according to a prominent manufactur
er, are insurance against forced un
employment, a fair living wage, rea
sonable working hours, some share
and voice in the control of the indus
trial side of the product, and a fair
share of the product. Some manu
facturers in this country are already
carrying out some of thesa demands,
all of which come back to the worth
of a man as Jesus taught it.
