We people are always busy hur
jying some place, no place, any
place. We fidget if foi red to re
main in one spot long, soon become
restless if forced to confine our
energy to one type of activity. We
sire wiggiers, doodlers, fiddlers,
twitctiers. hair lumpleis, nail
biters, pencil chewcrs, finger tap
pers, foot swingers, nose pullers,
pocket torturers. Absolute repose
in face and person is rare indeed
in this nerve-edgey era
Paul Bogan tells us that rats
are the only animals that psy
chologists find simulate human
behavior closely enough for ex
perimental research. No matter
how well fed and housed and
sleeked up satisfied as to their
every appetite rats are con
stantly milling around, rushing
somewhere. With no want to
drive them to a goal, yet they
are ever on the move.
Tenseness pervades not only
our waking hours, but invades our
slumber time, if any. Physicians
make fortunes on insomnia vic
tims, books on relaxing- enjoy huge
sales. Rest cures, lamp treatments,
massage emporiums mint money.
Coffee substitutes, vitamin foods,
carbohydrate products play up re
lief for that well known "tiled
feeling."
Remedies are many and varied.
The best one, we insist, is the
Westian admonition: "Take it
easy big boy; you'll last longer."
Help the Blind.
Teople are more non-observing
than anybody. As our own mother
is wont to say, they're "blind in
one eye, ami can't see out of the
other." Kor instance, how many
students know either the year in
K I ibe on the cornel stone of the
armory or the date over the door,
imuh less the discrepancy between
them? Or who can tell the street
number of the Temple, where the
Dinners are placed, which is miss
ing ?
The oft heard moan, in the
face of someone's eye witness
report of some excitement, is
"I never see anything." Like as
not, these wallers walked right
by something just as remark
able, and saw it not. The ideal
newsman photographer, re
porter, feature writer, editorial
producer keeps a harried eye
constantly on the alert for copy.
Without a vigilant alertness he
knows he isn't worth his type
writer ribbon. So he notices, ob
serves, remembers, interprets
everything going on.
The despair of the trainers of
the youth mind is not only that
Mudents see nothing, but that
what they do see is not in the least
meaningful to them. An event pro
vokes no perceptive thought even
if it happens to make a lasting
impression. It contributes nothing
to the ideas rattling around young
upper stories.
A cartooned bit of fun in the
latest "Saturday Review of Lit
erature" says our little say ef
fectively for us. The drawing
depicts Rollo, toys idle nearby,
drawing his grandmother on the
text of "Goldilocks And The
Three Bears" that she is reading
to him. Queries he: "Wasn't
Goldilocks invading private
property rights, Grandma?"

Disappointed Is the word for
me.
I've always heard stories about
college students frittering away
their time during each semester
and then feverishly cramming for
final exams on the night before.
Now I find out that all, or
nearly nil, of these tales are exag
gerations. The only person I could
find who staved up nil night was
a P. B. K. Maybe the rest of the
students don't care. Anyway, there
were all kinds of remarks about
seeing shows, going to bed early,
and relaxing on the night before
finals. What me colleges com
ing to?
'How do you study for final
exams?"
Rosalyn Lashinsky, Arts and Sci
ences junior:
"First, I outline everything, es
pecially the lecture notes. Then
I go thru the text, looking at the
chapter headings. After that, I
memorize the outline, recite it a
few times, and go to bed. The
next morning, I get up, recite the
outline again for about an hour,
and go take the test.
"If, however, I've studied dur
ing the day just before, 1 go to a
show on the night just preceding
the exam. No. 1 never stay up all
night -it's not worth it. If you
don't know a subject before the
final exam comes, you'll never be
able to get it in a few hours."
Dick Kurtz, Teachers college jun
ior: "If the subject is a. stiff one, 1
start about a week before. I go
up to the house files, collect all
the old exams given over that
course, look them over, and jot
down the questions which appear
on them the most often. I write
down the answers to these ques
tions, memorize them, then I out
line the rest of the material, and
memorize the outline."
Jeanette Polonsky, Arts and Sci
ences freshman:
"I go over my notes, and the
tests given during the semester.
Then I go to the house files, get
the tests from previous years, and
look them over. After a few
hours of this. I go to bed always
earlier than nights when 1 don't
hav." an exam.
"In the morning, I get up, dress
in my prettiest dress it always
helps to look all right- eat n big
breakfast, walk slowly to school,
enter the examination room with
a smile, and go to work."
George Larson, Arts and Sciences
junior:
"I don't go in much for inten
sive reviewing. I just glance over
the text. After that is done, I
relax the best method I've found
is to go to a show. I don't take
much stock in the idea of going
to bed enrly the night before."
Selma Zveitel, Teachers college
freshman:
"Most of my courses have quite
a few lectures, so I just look ovei
my lecture notes. I try to keep
up on my outside leading and
have it ail outlined, so that all Of
it isn't left for the last minute.
"Before the six weeks quizzes
and quarterlies. I write out little
reviews of the work covered dur
ing the period; so, before finals,
I can just read them over and get
an idea of the important material.
Tests on file give a pretty good
idea of the general type of ques
tion that the professor is gfoing to
ask.
"1 also make out a list of ques
tions that I'd ask if I were giving
the test. Then. too. I like to study
with someone who is also taking
the course that way it's possible
to get another point of view on
the material that is really impor
tant. "I study pretty late, but as soon
as the reading becomes meaning
less, I go to bed."
Rollo Clark. Teachers college
freshman:
"I try to keep all my lessons
up, so that all 1 have to do the
night before a quiz is to review a
little Then I go to bed the
earlier the better plenty of sleep
is essential.
"I get up early in the morning,
but it's best not to review Just
before the exam, so T don't it
just muddles things up. The real
ly important thing is to take your
time on the exam. Look the whole
thing over, apportion your time
according to the number of ques
tions, then get to work."
Dorothy Bentz. Arts and Sciences
senior:
"It all depends upon how hard
the exam is. If it's going to be
a stiff one, I stay up all night. I
don't like coffee, so I can't drink
it to keep awake. Avoiding drow
siness is an art that conies only
after long practice.
"Usually, it is a good idea, if
you have a text, to go thru it,
outline it, and memorize that outline."

RETIREMENT of Justice Willis
Vhii Devanter, 78 year old conser
vative member of the supreme
court, will remove from the high
tribunal one of President Roose
velt's staunchest foes. The ven
erable jurist who has always
voted thumbs down on the new
deal's legislation announced his in
tentions of retiring in a brief note
to President Roosevelt on June i
the day after the court's final ses
sion. "One up anil five to go" is the
feeling expressed bv i While
House source as that of the chief
executive; that is, one-sixth of a
victory in the court reorganise!
tion plan to secure six additional
justices on the supreme court
bench. "No comment" was the
White House statement in regard
to Mr. Van Devanter's successor,
but a pro-administration judge is
certain of being-named try presi
dent Roosevelt.
VOTE of 10 to 8 by the senate
judiciary committee approved an
unfavorable report on President
Roosevelt's court reform plan
three hours after Justice Van De
vanter's retirement was an
nounced. Nebraska's senior Sen
ator George W. Norris voted for a
favorable report while Senator Ed
ward L. Burke, the state's junior
member of the upper house, voted
with the majority group. Washing
ton reports indicate that the presi
dent s reorganization issue is
headed for compromise revision or
outrieht defeat, no matter how
smartly Postmaster-General Jim
Farley crocks the patronage whip
over congressional heads.
JUNE 3 will be the wedding
date of Edward duke of Windsor
and Mrs. Wallis Warfield (Simp
son) at the Chateau cle' Cande,
Monts, France, but no member of
the British royal family will at
tend the simple afair. Attendance
of the duke of Kent was opposed
by the governemnt which has been
striving to keep the affair as
secreted as possible. Only a limited
number of guests will be included
in the wedding party. Yet to be
decided is the matter of the bride-to-be's
title of Her Royal Highness.
