THIS IS THE END
It should be the privilege of the
editor to discuss his own policies at
least once. This being the last issue
under our editorship, we shall, there
fore, avail ourselves of the oppor
tunity.
Arthur Brisbane, Mr. Hearst's ex
pensive editorial writer, said that the
editor could four things:
Teach
Attack
'Defend
Praise
The first of these, he said, was the
most important. We have, we fear,
been somewhat deficient in teaching;
due, perhaps to our lack of knowl
edge. The second, we admit, has
been more popular with us, as several

high school superintendents will tes-
We have done a bit of defending.
It was, however, mostly in our own
defense that we wrote. Of praising
we have done little. Things that
deserved to be praised are usually
accepted as worthy without calling
attention to them.
To Mr. Brisbane's list of possibili
ties we feel that we must add anoth
er, to ruin complacency and thereby
encourage thinking. It is to this
last that we have chiefly devoted
ourselves.
We have, on a number of occasions
been accused of being radical, sen
sational, yellow, unfair, and various
other unpleasant things. We are,
rerhans Incompetent to judge. But
we can at least give our motives.
We have tried, vainly though it
may have been, to promote discus
sion, to raise issues that are contro
versial, and to cause some thought
about them. The opinions we have
expressed have been sincere, but we
have deliberately chosen those sub
jects that are likely to cause oppo
sition and discussion. That, in our
opinion, is the chief value of an edi
torial column; for we are not opti
mistic enough to believe that any
teaching we might attempt would
be read, or if it were, would be seri
ously considered. Only by causing
the students to think for themselves
rather than accept any ideas the edi
tor may hand out, will anything be
accomplished.
The subjects for thought, of
course, have not been set forth im
partially, for no one would be in
terested in such a procedure. To

attract attention one must give an
opinion, with which others may not
agree or not, but about which they
will think.
The editorials have been written
chiefly for the upperelass and gradu
ate students and faculty, for we are
confident that few students in the
first or second years are interested
. , i t . i i it
in any eauoriai. An interesting
discussion in the editorial column is
to them unknown.
If we have accomplished anything
in creating thought we are happy, for
we are pessimistic about the editor's
influence in forming opinions. Only
by a far more organized and advan
ced method of propaganda than the
editorial is public opinion moulded.
Our opinions, we have been in
formed, are inane. Others have been
kind enough to praise them. But
whatever the result, we have had a
fine time, and the enemies created
we consider the cost of attempting
to say something.
With this our swan song.
GRIDIRON POLITICS
Representative Britten of Illinois
has succeeded in forcing the military
academies to play the next Army
Navy game in Chicago. Football
teams from both schools and from
1,500 to 2,000 cadets from each will
journey hall way across tne conti
nent to provide the Chicagoans with
their thrill.
A queer bird is the Americano.
The honorable Mr. Britten, ably
backed by that self-styled world's
greatest newspaper, The Chicago Tri
bune, managed to blackjack the com
mandants of the academies into

agreeing to this asininity. His
method was to threaten that unless
the Windy City was favored with the
cadet's game strange things might
happen to appropriations, or athlet
ics at the institutions might be pro
hibited altogether.
It is difficult to believe that he
might have had his way in this, but
the fact that he found more than ISO
congressmen and senators who were
light-headed enough to back him
makes one doubtful.
The people have long been given
cause to believe that Congress is
made up largely of gentlemen of
slight intellect. This latest stunt
will lend strength to the conviction.
Congress could, perhaps, find
something more important to think
about than football. There are the
World Court, farm relief, tax reduc
tion, the tariff, and a number of
other issues that are, oddly enough,
of somewhat greater importance.
That the academies did not have
the backbone to defy the learned Mr.
Britten is regrettable. If they had
they might have lost their football
