Is the interest of the members "f
the student body in this mailer

Following the precedent which
was set last year there will he a
I ' o s t - F x a m Jubilee on W e d n e s d a y
of the second week of examinations— F e b r u a r y 1.
Alice O ' C o n n o r . '2.', is general
chairman of the jubilee.
There
will be competitive s t u n t s for the
Catherine Peltz is chairman for I he
seniors; Caroline Herber'ck for the
j u n i o r s ; VVilhemiiui lleinemaitn for
the s o p h o m o r e s ; and Vivien 11 arte
for ihc freshmen.
Everyone of us k n o w s , rather
vaguely perhaps, that llie alumnae
have started a campaign for the
Stale College Hormi-lory
Fund.
We, who are: still u n d e r g r a d u a t e s
and thus very familiar with the
aciual living conditions of students,
Whether our homes are in Albany
or mil, realize to ihc utmost the
great need for college d o r m i t o r i e s
here, It is the personal business
of each one of us, from every freshman lo every senior, lo understand
Ibis new plan fully and lo further it
with all the power in us,
'I he plan is brielly t h i s : all alumnae are asked lo pledge thai it is
their intention to c o n t r i b u t e twenty
($20 00) dollars a year for live
years lo this D o r m i t o r y Fund. T h e
payment of this money is not colli'
pulsory. If, for any reason, the one
who pledges himself finds that he
is unable lo meet his obligation because of some unforeseen trouble, he
need mil pay. 'Pile m a t t e r is left
to our own sense of honor.
Each
g r a d u a t i n g class, as it leaves Slate
College, is to be asked lo help in
I he work as well as those men and
w- en who are alumnae now.
Without even analyzing our position as lo this new m o v e m e n t college spirit makes us want to help
all we can. Not many of us can
come to Stale College for four
years without learning lo love our
Alma Mater and w i t h o u t being
filled with a desire to repay her
for all thai s'he has done for us,
intellectually ami socially.
The
sense of loyalty and g r o u p feeling
which we have made o u r own here
will help us t h r o u g h o u r lives. Almost all the o t h e r colleges have
e n d o w m e n t funds raised and added
to by the alumnae. Are we going
lo he behind Vassar, Colgate, Smith,
Harvard, and the rest in supporting the future a d v a n c e m e n t of our
colleger' H o w can we expect New
York State to think that we are in
earnest about our needs and our
betterment when we do n o t h i n g for
ourselves? If we succeed in backing the D o r m i t o r y Fund effectively
and make it a working reality, the
slate will see that we act and are
not merely talkers and lookers-on.
She will see thai we are worthy of
help from her. T h e alumnae are
responding lo the plan most generously. T h e first pledge from one
of their number was for one t h o u sand ($1,000) dollars.
We, I he
alumnae of the future, must keep
up the standard that they are setting for us.
On a dollar and cent basis, we
owe to Stale College the hundred
dollars which is asked of us. If we
did not have the services of die
T e a c h e r s ' Agency here at college
lo help us secure positions, we
should have to pay sixty or seventy
($70.00) dollars lo outside agency

FRENCH CLUB ORPHANS
Of 'Course everyone knows that
for .the last three years Stale College has iuul two little French orphans to sttpponl. Until last year
the college body took care of these
two children, but last year the
French Club look the whole responsibility. This year a portion
of the proceeds from the French
Fete went for this purpose. ,Tlic
children, Francois I'ollet and Marie
Jacob, both live in the most desolated region of France, in barracks
made of rough boards, and of
course during the cold weather
they suffer imue.h from cold.
The

and clothing for them, and enables
them to continue tit "school,

questions in preparation for the

by an h o n o r s y s t e m ?

9. W h a t would he the percentage of i m p r o v e m e n t ?
A FABLE —BY AESOP, JR.
Long, long ago, on the laud of
men was a young mini who never
had s m i l e d ; ' a n d he was a y o u n g
man of keen eyes. One night in a
dream a herald of the gods appeared to the sinileless y o u n g man,
and be said unto him: " T h e g o d s
have resolved lo help the race of
man and to lei •fhein read the mis
takes of their fathers. T h e y have
chosen you lo gather together the
chief of faults of man and write
them on a stone tablet for I he son.',
of man to read." When the y o u n g
man awoke, he remembered the
dream, and set forthwith lo the
task. Hut first he hewed out many
tablets of stone and laid them under a mighty tree. Then he sat by
[he side of the road and wrote on
the first tablet of all that passed
by. And soon one tablet was full
and he began to chip the faults of
man on the second tablet.
•And uiie day there came lo the
man a young man who said, " C o m e :
lei us travel this way together, and
be friends."
Ilul the lirsi young
man only .--cowled and began to chip
a sentence beginning, " F o u l s that
talk"
The man chipped tablet after tablet and placed litem all about
O n e day, a beautiful maiden came
u n t o him and whispered unto him,
" l i e happy with me," bin the man
saw not the beautiful ina'dcn, bin
the word he remembered, and
chipped " L e a r n i n g " is happiness."
And the sinileless y o u n g man grew
old, and till his days he chipped
by the side of the road, .And when
he was very old. the gods sent word
to him lo statu on the mountain
j o u r n e y to O l y m p u s , lint the lablets were so many thai they bur
dened the sinileless mail so thai lie
could walk but a little way before
rest. And- it was a year and a day
before he arrived at the gate of
the gods. And the beautiful maiden was dancing for Zeus, and the
y o u n g man witli his eternal youth
was (dicing with Apollo. And when
the gods asked the sinileless man
for his tablet, he pointed to ilia
pile of stone. And Zeus smiled nl
the man With Apollo, and gave the
decree of reward to the sinileless
m a n : " L e t the tablets form a wall
in front of him, and let them be so
placed that he may read them day
after day, and let him live cternalh
reading his tablets. And opposite
bis name in the book of men, let
the scribe write a sentence begin
iiing: ' l i e that ahandoncth b •.
fellowman for stone t a b l e t s - - . ' "
'ROUND THE COLLEGE
BOARDS
An a t t e m p t is being made to organize the p o s t i n g of notices on the
bulletin boards in the main halls,
namely: the one by the front door
and the one near the women's faculty room, In a n o t h e r section of the
" N e w s " the rules are printed which
an: to be followed.
Xow that
everyone knows just what is to be
done with regard to notices there
should be no such confusion as
there has been in the past.
People seem to have gotten the
idea thai the main bulletin board
is a place for lost and found
nut ices. T h e fact remains.'however,
that it is not such a bulletin and
never will be.
T h e convmittce is asking for the
cc-operation of every student in
college in helping to make the bulletin b o a r d s more orderly and wella r r a n g e d . If you have been making
niisiakesi please try to rectify them
in light of the suggestions which
are being made in this issue. '22.

responsibility
for
honesty at " S t a l e " resit with the
faculty" or the student body? •
A Senior,
Last year we showed a picture
of our little boy Francois I'ollet.
Xow here is our little girl, Marie
Jacob, twelve years old, and here
is a I d l e r which the French Club
recently received from her:
" M e s c fliers petits amis,
It is villi great p.easure that I
received your gifts which you were
kind enough to send me, and I
thank you from the bottom of my
heart.
I take pleasure in sending
you my photograph which I hope
will please you. I still go to school,
and am doing my best to study so
as to m a k e use of it later on.
i must say that it is not warm
here; it is indeed very cold, for it
is winter. W h e r e you are, perhaps
it is less cold. 1 must tell you also
that in our little village they are
raising to-day a monument for the
hcros of the Great W a r who died
for France, Unfortunately fur me,
I am one of those who share very
deeply in t'he significance of this
monument.
My d e a r friends, I close my letter, t h a n k i n g you with all my heart
for the generous gilts which you
have sent, and offering you my
best wishes and affections.
De votre petite amie de France,
Mai : Jacob."
T h e a d d r e s s of this little French
girl is:
Marie J a c o b ,

She would be very, very pleased
to hear from any who care to write
to her. f.et's do it!

On the gym court Monday afternoon, January
16. the
juniors
clashed with the freshmen in a
rather one-sided contest. T h e frosh
put up a stiff light bill il was unavailable against file superior pass
work and shooting of the juniors,
for at the end of the second half
the score was 11-0 in favor of the
juniors.
Hut the freshmen cania back on
the court in a spirit of redemptive
assertion and revenge. T h e y tightened up their team work and broke
thru the junior's defense lo |ihc
extent of three field tallies, but the
green and white scpiad was still on
the warpath, scoring thirteen points
lo I he freshmen's eight. So when
the final whistle blew, the score
stood 2'1-H in favor of the juniors.

OTHER COLLEGE FUNDS
Alumni have been showing a
greater interest in their colleges
within the last few years than ever
before. A large number of universities and colleges have recently
been c a r r y i n g on drives for funds,
making it special appeal to their
alumni, and they have responded
with great loyalty. 'Hie graduates
nl" a college are of course itliore interested in it than any one else, and
from them must conic the strongest
support for their Alma Mater. 'The
money raised in the drives is in
most instances toward general expense*, but a large portion of this
will be used for dormitories and
other buildings.
When we are discussing plans
for d o r m i t o r i e s at State College, it
is iii'leresting to know how some
o t h e r colleges have raised and arc
r a i s i n g money for their dormitory
expenses. T h e following arc sonic

Yule University has had no drive
for ;i specific sum, but every grad
utltc is expected as ;i inattcr_ of
course to contribute to the Vale
Alumni bund according to his ability,
The
annual
contribution
a m o u n t s to about $750,(100, This
provided for the Yale deficit during
I lie war. T h e fluid has been running for thirty years and means an
fiidownienl fund of $50 OOO.OfO.
In line H a r v a r d drive each alumnus was expected to contribute
twenty-live dollars for every live
year- that he had been out of college. T h e Syracuse plan specified
a certain a m o u n t for each year out.
In many cases this plan docs not
work very well since someone who
has only been out for a few year';
will just pay his quota when he
might be able to pay much more,
and someone who g r a d u a t e d a long
time ago cannot pay his given
amount.
"(live or get 330.33" was the
slogan of the Colgate drive in 191S.
This amount was asked for from
each alumnus to make a total ol
$1,000,000 plus the cost of a gym
nasiuni. A new d o r m i t o r y is now
being built, which will house eighty
men.

Hour in (lie'three Metropolis g a m e s

"pep" exhibited ill all of the g a m e s
despite the fact that they played
against teams of greater training
and experience.
At last l l o r n t i n g has developed
bis a r t of s h o o t i n g baskets from t h e
foul line, This was evident In all
three g a m e s when he m a d e a total
of nineteen points from the fifteen
foot line out of about twenty-live
tries. He w a s the star of the game
against St. J o h n ' s College of Brooklyn, m a k i n g a total of thirteen
points, six from the floor and t h e
other seven from the' penalty line,
caging the seven out of ten shots.
J o h n s o n completed the .scoring for
State In' this g a m e with t w o field
goals. St. J o h n ' s won the contest
by the score of 40 to 17.
Tlic o t h e r t w o g a m e s which resulted in victories for P r a t t Institute. 26 to 1,1, and N'ew York Aggies, 40 to 15, were exceptionally
good contests in which the lighting
spirit and real college "pep was
exhibited by State's court w a r r i o r s .
Although
these three
defeats
make a s t r i n g of seven, Stale has
yet to lose three more to equal
Yale's record on the court thus far
this season.
Here's hoping State
doesn't rival Yale in their year's
schedule.

CHINA'S POSITION AT T H E
WASHINGTON CONFERENCE
B y V. K. W e l l i n g t o n K o o
T o speak the truth and work for
h a r m o n y has always been the ideal
t o w a r d which the Chinese people
have worked through m a n y centuries. In her philosophy China has
exalted t h e scholar above the soldier,
In her history she has developed a tradition of peace. She
still believes that to quarrel, plunder and murder, a m o n g nations as
a m o n g individuals, are things disa s t r o u s to the world. It is at once
the weakness of China and her
s t r e n g t h that her spirit has been
pacific where several oilier nations
have been otherwise.
At the turn of the century China
began lo realize the weakness of
her traditional attitude.
Russia,
G e r m a n y , and Japan gave her cause
to fear the d a n g e r of e n c r o a c h m e n t s , and thai danger has not as
yet a l t o g e t h e r disappeared.
Military p o w e r in China itself led to
disputes between civil and military
men. T h e great war saw the landing of J a p a n e s e forces in the neutral
territory of Shantung.
-And then
China's preparation to participate in
the E u r o p e a n war served r a t h e r to
accentuate differences within the
country.
Representatives tit Versailles did not settle questions thai
are of great concern to ('hina.
T h e s e questions might furnish
causes for future war. T h e people
of China a r e determined that the
territorial integrity and political
sovereignty of t i e Chinese republic
shall be respected
With great
satisfaction, therefore, they authorised the Chinese delegates to attend
the W a s h i n g t o n conference and
work for a ha'-nioniou- and just
s e t t l e m e n t of China's foreign relations.

China's declaration of principles
and the firm assertion of h e r rights
hefore the bar of international law
and world opinion will r e m o v e the
cause .and threat of war. It will do
more than remove the threat of
war.
It will establish across the
Pacific a united republic, progressive and democratic, an illustrious
advocate of peace by n a t u r e and
disposition in the light of reason
and experience.
W h a t is the best settlement of
China's questions?
A permanent
settlement is t h e best settlement,
and injustice will never m a k e a permanent settlement, j u s t i c e is the
best g u a r a n t e e of peace.
So'iuc sacrifice must be made by
nations participating in the conference, as China has m a d e them in the
past to preserve peace; bill I hey
who help China to-day will Iheiiiselves derive benefits,
Along' the
path of peace the whole world will
enjoy the fruits of an invigorated
and friendly China.
