Tho Faster Says: Pleasure is all
very well to wade in, but it is too
.-shallow to swim i'. and rwny a one
who has attempted to dive into its
waters has crashed to hi- death on
its rock bottom. John Andrew
Hoi nics.
A poor spirit is shown by some
students who have lately broken into
lockers in the Armory and appropri
ated track suits and equipment be
longing to Varsity candidates. As a
result of this prcatice, some promis
ing track men have been deprived of
an opportunity to practice regularly.
Championship teams are not made
up from a student body among which
there is an element stooping to this
low grade of sportsmanship. Stealing
from the lockers must be stopped and
it cannot be stopped unless the stu
dents strongly discountenance it.
The value of material stolen is con
siderable. The handicap to the track
men is greater. But the principle in
volved the honor of the students
is the greatest reason why stealing
in the locker rooms should stop at
once.
Some solution is needed of the ques
tion of now to keep class organiza
tions out of debt. At present, the
treasury balance of all the upper
classes is on the left side of the ledger
and the members are held responsible
for the deficit In most cases, the
debt was contracted by a party com
mittee of the class in its first or
second year.
Surely there should be a closer su
pervision of the "hops" to prevent a
repetition of this mismanagement.
Other schools have class dues to take
care of expenses incidental to the class
organization, but the plan has never
been used here. In the absence of
some such scheme of raising revenue,
we need to watch all expenditures in
the name of a class. Although there
be no graft present, one person may
easily create a deficit by mismanage
ment and be under no responsibility
for that carelessness. Perhaps the
evil is being corrected and the present
state of affairs is a result of past
years of loose checking cf expendi
tures, but it is to the interest of every
student that this reform be accom
plished at once to prevent future assessments.
WHY COME TO COLLEGE?
The average undergraduate's time
is so taken up with hurrying to and
fro mclass, attending meetings, and
a thousand and one things that his
thought is apt to shallow itself to the
daily routine, leaving no time to con
sider what the continual hurry and
worry is all about.
Among the questions which every
student might well ask himself occa
sionally are, "Why did I come to col
lege?" and then, "Am I getting what
I came for?" These lead to a third,
"What is a college for and what has
it to offer?"
It can be assumed that everybody
had a reason for coming to college. It
may have been that the student came
for the quickening and development
to be had from a higher education or
it may be that he came because there
seemed to be nothing better or more
attractive to employ the first fo-ir
years after high schooL If his rea
son will bear scrutiny, however, keep
ing it in mind should help him get
what the school can give.
As to just what that something is
that a college can offer and just why
students should go to college, there
has no doubt been discussion since
such institutions came into being.
Volumes have been written about it.
Perhaps few have put it into a
sentence or two as well as Woodrow
Wilson when he said, "The man who
comes out of college into the modern
world must have gotten out of it, if
he has not wasted four vitally signifi
cant years of his life, a quickening
and training which will make him in
some degree a master of men. Col
lege makes one no tool but a wielder
of tools, some of which are men." If
he has gotten any less, Mr. Wilson
goes on to say, college has not been
worth the while.
To become a master among other
men in a chosen field it seems tin's
must be the motive that brought all
students with real purpose to college,
It may be mastery in one of the in-
duplies or perhaps in one of the
arts, depending on the school and the
course, but greater excellence as com
pared to that which would have been
attained without further education is
the common goal of college men and
women.
Not only "Why did i come to col
lege?" but "Am I getting what I came
for" is also worth consideration. To
he a master of men necessitates, as
Mr. Wilson added, the ability to
handle men. Here, it seems, lies the
chief value to be derived from college
activities. The man who engages in
a worthwhile activity learns to "get
along" with other people and when
necessary to pereuade them to be a
more successful member of society
after he loaves college. Class room
knowledge should come first (a fact
often lost sight of) but a proper bal
ance of it with the right sort of ac
tivities is necessary to produce th
kind of graduates that should come
fiom a college. Iowa State Student,

lowships in food research for the col
lege year 1923-24, with stipends rang
ing from $600 to $1200 for three, ac
ademlc quarters and exemption from
tnttlonal charges. Holders of the fel
lowships will be expected to devote
at least half of their time to research
under the direction of the Institute,
and the rest to study In related de
partments of the University, Satis
factory prosecution of research work
will count toward the degrees A. M.
and Ph. D. at Stanford University.
Completed studios In research will
normally be of a character accept
able in partial fulfillment or require
ments for a Ph. IX degree at Stan
ford University and elsewhere.
At the suggestion of Mr. Herbert
Hoover, the Food Research Institute.
of Stanford University was foumJed
in February 1921 by the Carnegie
Corporation of New York in conjunc
tion with tho trustees of Leland Stan
lord Junior University. California. In
the Hoover War Library, the Univer
sity possesses a large collection oi
documentary material, relating to the
food problems and other ecnomic as
pects of the world war. The carnegie
Corporation guarantees stated funds
for the work for a period of ten years.
Stanford University provides quarters
and I'atilitios and has appointed the
directors of the Institute to positions
on the Stanford faculty.
Candidates must hold the degree ot
A. B. or B. Sc. or an equivalent, and
must have had one or more years of
graduate work in a University of
high standing. A reading knowledge
foreign languages, especially French
and German, and training in the phy
sical sciences, economic theory, econ
mic history, accounting, and statis
tics, will be considered of special value
the Institute announces. March IS,
1923, is the final date for application
lo the Executive Secretary of the In
stitute. Preference will be given to
candidate who desire to investigate
problems clsely related to those upon
which the Institute is already con
ducting research, or in one of the fol
lowing fields; milling and baking
technology, agricultural crises and
depressions, co-operative marketing
rf food products.
Wheat and wheat products, and
otcnomic problems related to these
commodities, at present occupy the
attention of the Institute. Crop es
timating and reporting methods in
the United States and abroad are be
ing studied to determine how far past
and current statistics of crops may be
accepted s Tollable, w far the
bases upon which they are obtained
are comparable, and In what ways
the accuracy of crop forecasts and
reports may t Improved.
Kansas State Agricultural College
is co-operattng with tho Institute to
arrive at sound principles ot cost
analysis and effective means of in.
terpretlng these data.
Statistics of wheat and flour pro
ductlon, domestic movements, and Im
ports and exports are being studies
in their relation to prices. The ob
Jective of this study is an interpreta
tion of the world wheat position In
tho light of available statistics and
other relevant facts.
European economic development,
particularly in respect to agriculture
and food consumption, are being fol
lowed with special reference to their
bearing upon the demand for wheat
exports.
The first year of the Institute was
largely occupied with the establish
ment at Stanford, the determination
of general policies, the organisation
of a staff, enlarging tho collection
of materials required for research,
and making preliminary surveys and
Investigations designed to furnish
basis for more intensive studies. The
work has been fully under way only
since the summer of 1922. Accord
ingly, most of the research work is
still in its early stages.

Movie directors, please copy
IN fiction and the movies all college men natu
rally fall into two groups. Those who pass
their days and nights "Rah! Rahl'Mng and
snake-dancing; and those who never appear
except with evening clothes and cane.
The man who works his way through college
simply doesn't figure.
Taking care of a furnace, running a laundry,
waiting on table, tutoring, covering for a city 4
paper, working in shop or office in vacation
all this may be lacking in romantic appeal, but
it is an essential part of the college picture.
And a valuable part. The whole college is
the gainer for the earnestness of men who want
their education that hard.
Valuable to the college, but even more to the
men who travel this rough going. They learn
an important lesson in Applied Economics
the amount of sweat a ten dollar bill represents.
If you are one of them you may sometimes
feel that you are missing a good deal of worth
while college life. If you are not, you may be
missing a good deal, too.
