How About
TAie Dnrmifnrnl
The announcement that the university will
receive bids for the construction of a dormi
tory, the first one to he built on this campus,
conies as the result of much investigation on
the part of those who want the dormitory, and
it comes also in spite of the fact that a good
many people oppose the move. Last year there
Mas considerable agitation over the matter
when the university tried to get an appropria
tion! from the state.
The financial arrangements for the first unit
of the project have now been settled, but the
criticism and comments have by no means sub
sided. Those who advocate that the state
should undertake construction work to provide
jobs for the unemployed, will, no doubt, ap
prove of the project. And those who think that
the university should have dormitories for girls
nrc rejoicing that the dormitories will soon be
built.
;A note of dissent, bowever, appears in the
Morning Mail, wherein it is charged that the
dormitory will deprive landladies of their only
soatrce of income. I. "V. claims that any good
this undertaking will do in regard to providing
jobs and creating prosperity will be nullified
by. the fact that a large number of rooming
houses will be vacated and their proprietors
le& flat.
There is a grain of truth in this considera
tion of the matter, for it cannot be denied that
;i dormitory will to some extent cut down on
ill1 number of roomers that landladies will
house. But the landladies will not be the only
oiis to suffer. They will not lose as many
roomers as the dormitory gains. Sororities will
also lose their share of girls.
But this view of the matter is not the one
iliat the university administration has taken.
The administration has in mind a residence for
out-of-town girls that will provide all modern
conveniences and be an aid to finer living and
nobler thinking. Considerable study has been
aiven to the design, methods of operation and
success of dormitories in other schools, and,
n ft or much of this investigation, it was deemed
advisable to build a girls dormitory at this
university.
Sororities will not approve of this new com
petition, nor will landladies. But we should
also keep in mind the fact that the university
must provide adequate Tooms near the campus
for girl students and must help the student in
every way possible to live comfortably, amid
uplifting surroundings. The university mus't
see that its purpose is fulfilled, and the forlorn
landladies will have to be taken care of some
other waj.

The Super
Education,
One of the professional "educators" has just
been among us and has left behind him a
chorus of high praise. One of the echoes, Pang
Joss, had this to say in yesterday's Morning
Mail. "In one striking metaphor Dean Hag
gerty characterized the contrast between mod
ern education and the highflown and imprac
tical theories of other days. He said, 'A room
ful of white mice is of more importance to
modern education than all your philoso
phers.' '
Sometimes it strikes us that the resulis
achieved by "modern education," particularly
by that part of it which is firm in the grasp
of the "educators," the elementary schools,
bear out the literal truth of the Minnesota
dean 's metaphor. One wonders whether teach
ers don't actually know more about "white
mice" than about anything else. Certainly they
often betray "abysmal ignorance" of the sub
jects which they struggle to teach. Notwith
standing the training they get in up-to-date
technique of teaching, they fail dismally when
lley attempt to teach. "Witness, for example,
tic number of freshmen who come to the uni
wrsity every year without even a rudimentary
knowledge of English grammar, or even of
unfiling, altho "modem education" has had
its way with Ihem in these subjects for twelve
.f ars. Before anything can be done with them
m the university it becomes necessary for the
Tuglish department to stop and mark time
teaching ten-year-old subjects. If the common
school teacher cannot even manage such pri
mary subjects successfully, how much more
inefficiently they must teach all the other sub
jects in the curriculum.
- Cod forbid the modern educator should ever
eltnquer the university with their statistical
rjorrors and their "white mice" methods. Let
them straighten out first the muddle into
which their misdirected enthusiasm for "scien
tific method" has plunged the rest of the sys
tem. And God forbid, Pan gloss, that the time
will eome when "they will be able to condition
accurately the future of ever)' child that comes
under their hand." Then we shall all be whit
mice, and blind ones at that.

The recent Al Capone triof in Chicago lent n
new aspect to the gang situation in that city,
Judge Wilkerson making it known that the
scrir-faced gentleman from Sicily was nothing
moro or less than another case to him. His
sentence indicated that lie held no fear of the
gangster's power. The trial also brought an
other new angle to the day's news. The Chi

survey of its renders played the Cnpone trial
"down" in its news columns.
Capone' trial was deflated considerably and
the paper allotted it but two columns a tiny
while other papers were playing it up with
from fourteen to eighteen columns daily. Pub
lisher K. Ij. Ames, jr., believed Post renders

the color of Capone 's neckties, the size of his
bodyguard, and the numerous other "human
interest" angles. He suggested n canvass of

make moving parts of machines
appear to stand still. It consists es
sentially of a light which is turned
on and off In rapid succession at a
spesd corresponding to that of tho

that the light is on is very short
and the moving part appears to be
at rest, since the impressions on
the eye are so close together.
This device has been used to stop
flywheels and rotating armatures
in order to measure the change in
dimensions that they undergo
while In service. The erosion of
airplane propeller tips by rain
drops has also been studied by the
use of the stroboglow. Another in

NEWSPAPER TALK
Serious Coeds.
The latest product of our higher educaiion is
a scheme evolved at the University of Southern
California, under which co-eds will undertake
to determine how far their suitors measured
up to the requirements of the "perfect man"
and to adjust tha cost of dates accordingly. If
the man who asks for a date is rated 100 per
cent, according to the standards the girls have
adopted, they agree to carry all the expenses
of the entertainment. If he rates less than 100
percent, they will carry a share of the expense
inversely proportionate to the deficiency.
There arc grave fears attached to the values
which the co-eds have decided to use in rating
their masculine friends. They propose to assign
20 percent for intelligence, 25 percent for cul
tural background, 10 percent for a sense of
humor, and 10 percent for personality, in other
words more than half of the 100 percent is
composed of ideal elements iu the human per
sonality, while only n fractional proportion is
to be allowed for such practical factors as per
sonal appearance, dancing ability, courtesy and
physical fitness.
From this table it would seem that tho femi
nine contingent at the University of .Southern
California is ambitious to put social relation
ships with the other sex in an ideal vacuum
from which feminine likes and dislikes have
been excluded. Of the desire of the California
co-eds to attain this etheral perfection "we have
no doubt, but unless they differ from co-eds
in all other sections they are likely to fall far
short of their ideal and will find caprice enter
ing into their judgment in a remarkable de
gree. What is more, they may find their
masculine fellow students preferring an ele
ment of caprice and refusing to abide by
supposedly ideal judgments rendered in a
vacuum. .Syracuse Daily Orange.
