A large CRke decorated with the

Siting centered the table at a
charming evening party given by
faculty members of the French de
partment for the students enrolled
in the more advanced courses. E.
V. Telle told the guests about
French holidays in his native
language and sang several French
songs. The party was given in
celebration of Twelfth Night, Jan.
6. which is a New Years festival of
France. The king or queen who is
selected by drawing a bean from a.
cake chooses a partner and the
guests do them honor. They were
presented with gifts by the queen.
The gifts consisted of handker
chiefs, rings, etc. The whole cere
mony was carried out in French.
Pineapple ice was served with the
cake. There was a moment of
suspense during the evening when
each guest waited to see who
would be the lucky individual to
draw the bean and become king.
This was modeled after an old
ceremony performed in France
from Jan. 6 to the Mardi Gias in
celebration of the new year.

New System.
r.ihpi-al agriculture, a course
which allows students in the col-
le-a r.f ncririiUiire opportunities to
o o .
elect numerous subjects from vari
ous other colleges in the univer
sity, is fast gaining favor, in the
opinion or froi. . n;. jviusseni,
chairman of the poultry depart
ment.
This course, peculiarly named
because of the random choice stu
dents may make in arranging their
schedules, was instituted live years
ago. Several years of agitation
preceded before arrangements
were finally made.
Follows Depression.
Ti -m followin- the business de
pression which came after the war.
Mussehi, explained, mat mougm
was first given to such a course.
Comparatively, agriculture was
then worse off than during the
present depression.
Many students could not be in
terested in agricdlture because
they claimed the courses were
much too practical, rroi. jnussem
continued. They wanted training
in a general field that would enable-them.
to. step into any num
ber of businesses.
Burnett Interested.
Chancellor Burnett, who was
then dean of the college of agricul
ture, Dean Burr, Prof. Swenk and
nthpm hprause ereatlv interested
in this new liberal agricultural
course. Two or three years later
Kftu.- it in workine- form.
More students are entering this
course every year, Mussehi com
mented as he gave examples of the
success already shown.
Should Work Both Ways.
"It would be a good thing." he
rnnr-lnrlerl "if the entire university
could be so arranged that all stu-
rtpntA would nave access to a. lew
courses on the college of agricul
nr rnmntiH." Aericulture. Prof.
Mussebl believes, fits well into any
schedule.
The liberal field, however, Is
nnt a. "pipe" course, this instruc
tor hastened to add. Forty hours
of agricultural subjects in at least
four rlpnartments are reauired.
The liberal atudent must also have
twelve hours in economics, ten in

sides the usual physical education

to which our government is unal
terably opposed.
Wp believe that military train
ing courses seek to idealize war,
and to inculate tne spirit or un
questioning military obedience
uhirh emotional armament of
war. We quote with approval Ray
mond is. KosdiCK S statement uibl
military drill "has as its chief re
sult a chance in the mental
outlook of young people, so that
they 100K upon war as a uunuai
part of life and expect to take
nart in it. It habituates the thought
of the participants to slaughter as
a rational means oi setuiug unci-
national difficulties, as a legiti
mate means of reaching decisions."
iWe consider that our military
drill courses are not only mcon
sistpnt with the KelloEr oact re
pudiating war as a means of set
tling international aispuien, . uui
constitute a grave danger to world
peace.
We believe, finally, that insis
tence upon the compulsory feature
of military training indicates that
the majority of student opinion
stands opposed to it, anu cuu
stitutes its own confession of fail
ure.
Arrnrriinp we netilion the con
gress of the United States to con
sider the mandate of student op
inion on a matter which so vi
tally concerns it, and to outlaw the
compulsory feature of military
training from American colleges
and universities."
