No loss than 192 feet high and 85 feet square, the "book tower is to rest, within two years on tho campus of Yale, costing $6,000,000, housing eventually 5,000,000 volumes, admit ting two thousand readers at a time: the Sterling Memorial Library, "the largest and best-planned in the world." Uefore the huge central pile, the freshman as (he approaches will soon notice the smaller Memorial Hall En trance; and entering this, he finds himself in the nave of a cathedral lighted by sunrays through the stained-glass windows on a tesselated pavement; passing through and turn ing to the right, he is in a cloistered court with a fountain and trees: above him again are the tall lancet windows and the massive buttresses. In a moment he disappears into the fortress of erudition, protected by the Gothic style, the massive stone, the marvellous efficiency of the ap pointments against the distractions of the every-day human world while he glides through the mysterious shrine of Privilege Learning. Inside, it is not so different from the outside world; it is the dream of comfort and efficiency to the nth power realized. The main reading room does not have to be stepped up to; it is on the street level a com plete innovation in library building. And nearest to the entrance are two reading rooms, the Reserved Book Room of working texts, and the Lino nian and Brothers Room with its gen eral books: "books such as a gentle man would want in his own library," books for browsing in deep chairs. But this is not the whole catalog of conveniences. The commuter, even, will find provided for himself a Non-Resident Students' Room where he can finally rest and study undisturbed; moreover the self-supporting impecunious chap can borrow textbooks here. Adjoining is the curious Andrews Loan Library from which the volumes are loaned for a year at a time! The Battle of the Books Finally, there will be one little room of extraordinary interest: a re plica of the Yale Library as it was in 1743: a room some twenty-two feet by thirty-one, containing the same old volumes or their duplicates, entered by the very same old doors, and fitted out with the same old style of furniture. And thereby hangs a tale as fas cinating as any in American college history. Yale was a library before it was a college. The fates of this library were the fates of Yale, and strange they were. Before Yale had a single student or a teacher, a local habitation or a name, it had a small library assembled by half a dozen Colonial ministers, who by pledging a gift of books, at Branford in 1701, and, according to traditions, actually laying some of them on the table, founded a "Collegiate School in His Majesty's Colony of Connecticut." These "tomes," some forty of them, were two feet tall, three inches thick bound in thick leather, printed in Latin, and dealing, most frequently, with religion. The students of that age took notes in Latin every day I In London, some years later, as contemporary you might have seen "no less a person than Sir Isaac New ton reaching up to a shelf for a copy of his own Principle, a book which tells of the discovery of the law of gravitation, and presenting the vol ume, with several others, to Jeremy Dummer, the Colony agent, who was conducting some sort of drive for the new school." Richard Steele pre sented "all the Tatlers and Specta tors, in royal paper, neatly bound and gilt;" and Hallcy, the astrono mer, like other great men of the time, was also generous. BISHOP JONES FLAYS SCHOOL MILITARISM (Continued From Page One) California Glee Club Resigns The glee club of the University of California resigned when their coach and leader submitted his resignation after an argument with the univer sity authorities, whd refused to ap prove an European trip during the summer months, on the ground that the selections sung by the club were not representative American college songs.

"Peace is something that hns to be built, there is no such thing as the dawn of peace, peace is made, the result of a long and drawn out process. It doesn't just happen," he said. Some people have that idea that we mean peace when we have an army and navy handy to put down any offender. Man with a pistol is like a nation with an army, he feels thnt he is just a little better, just a little stronger. This is dangerous," Bishop Jones stated. Many college students have rebell ed against this compulsory drill but have been informed that it will go on. Such was the case in the Ohio State University where a vote was taken resulted in 1099 votes against the drill and 701 votes for it. In spite of that the drill continues, for auth orities say that it will go on. The University of Wisconsin is the only university where drill is offered that the compulsion part has been re moved. An open discussion followed the lecture and students were permitted to present any arguments or ask any questions. Bishop Jones will be in Lincoln as the guest of the local Y. M. C. A. for several days and will be glad to meet any student person ally and especially those interested in any line of reconciliation work.
