What reveal? — Airmen and Aircraft. Ily Harold II, Arnold. <316 pp. $3.50. Xew York: Ronald Press. The sub-title of this volume of the Ronald Aeronautic library is "An Introduction to Aeronautics," which probah.'y doesn't sound especially attractive. But the content of the book is attractive. Rudyard Kipling has been quoted as saying of aerial navigation: " W e are at the opening verse of the opening page of the chapter of endless possibilities." Major Arnold has found it possible to tell something about the science hack of these possibilities in a non-technical manner. Hesidcs his descriptions of modern types of aircraft and his simple explanations of how an aeroplane overcomes the forces of gravity and the means of control by the pilot, there are condensed accounts of some epochal air voyages. The cross-continent, Alaska, Australia, transatlantic and 'round-the-world flights are described. Perhaps the most interesting portion of the hook deals with the exploits of the internationally known aces during the World War. It Is down "in black and white," where H !

New Y o r k : Houghton Mifflin. At the risk of being unjust to what may be an honest and sincere attempt to tell the truth about the "drifting girls of the big cities," we feel that this book litis been mis-titled. Instead of "Other People's Daughters" we would call it "Social Service Slush, or, Why Girls Leave Home— in Seventeen Carts." Mrs. W'embridge writes with considerable vigor and her work is good entertainment, hut "Other People's Daughters" is not a psychological study, such as it is said to be and such as one would expect from Its author. Rather it is a collection of seventeen sli il'i stories of the belter "True Story" type. Vice- llete vear by the Editorial Hoard i t i . n .

Hut President iJruhacher will find support from every hoiict-niinded citizen of the state I'or his declaration that "it i. high time that these shameful inequalities tire rem >ved and the training of teachers is placed upon a more honorable basis." T h e right way to remove the inequalities is not to lower the sums given these other colleges. It is to raise the allotments of the teacher training institutions. Turning to definite figures again, it can be proved that the state gets surer and greater returns from the education of one hundred teachers than from the education of one hundred agriculturists. State College, for example, can prove just how many of its graduates are actively in the teaching field in New York stale. The College of Agriculture can also prove how many of its graduates are farming in New York stale, hut. the comparison will not be in its favor. The normal sch IOIS have I'or years been attracting not Ihc students from the upper half of high school graduating classes, but those from the lower half. State College fortunately has not been forced for years to take inferior students. This is chiefly because, until this year, it has been the only state institution to train high school teachers. Hut Slate Colic e, as well as the normal schools, would be more attractive to good students if they could offer dormitory facilities in some way comparable to those of privately endowed institutions. T h e state's next major move to Improve the teacher training institutions should he the supplying of these. The state can afTord to place the education of teachers on an honorable basis, and this is one of the ways to do it. Why We Behave Like Human Beings. By George A. Dorscy. 512 pp. New York: Outlook Co, To those few who haven't yet read this book there is only one thing to be said: read it, "Why We Behave hike Human Beings" is not a classic of literature, ft adds nothing new to scientific knowledge. Its style may please you with its freshness, or perhaps annoy you for a certain flippancy, But it is what Horsey says, not how he says it, that makes this book count. In a decade when "outlines" have been written on every imaginable subject, he has furnished one on man himself. Marketing Deb. Hy Hughes Cornell. .315 pp. New York: Macattlay, This is just another story about the "marriage market," and no particular skill or originality is shown in the development of its somewhat rusty theme. Deb is short for Deborah, also for debutante. Deb is the heroine and she drifts along with the oilier "impetuous debutantes who vva.il only to display their charms and conceal their morals." There is enough of the conventional novel "high society" glitter and glamor to please even those whom the movies and the yellow journals have trained to large doses of "expensive orgies." The story ends—happily. TEN YEARS A G O IN STATE COLLEGE From the files of the News for Nov. 15, 1916 The regular meeting of College club was held last Friday afternoon at ,3:45. The speaker was Professor Woodard and his topic was "Collecting Flowers." "Is there such a subject as International h a w ? " asks Professor A, W. Risley in a very interesting and illuminating article in the October issue of the Journal of the Xew York State Teachers' association. Mr. Risley answers his own question by proving in a very clear and concise manner that International haw not only still exists, but that never before was knowledge of it so widespread and appreciated. "Football got its start in State College Last Saturday morning when about twenty men met Coach Hubbard at Riclgeficld Park to receive their first instruction in the sport." "A course in intermediate algebra will he given to enable students to remove entrance conditions in that subject." "G. A. A. is planning a gym frolic for Friday evening, November 10th. All freshmen girls who arc interested and upperclass members arc invited to come and have a good time." "An Interclass basketball league has been formed and games are to be played every Monday and Wednesday afternoon all winter long." "Everyone who has ever had the pleasure of hearing Professor Kirtland in a song recital will receive with gratification his announcement that he will give a song recital in the auditorium on Monday afternoons of each week."

OPTICIAN KIMMEY'S Kleen-Maid BREAD Holsum STATE COLLEGE NEWS, HOVEMHER, COLLEGE CAN'T SET ROOMING STANDARD Albany's Facilities Are Not Welt Planned, Says Dean Pierce DORMITORY IS REMEDY While All Homes Undergo An Inspection, Some Lack Proper Comforts "We arc unable to set standards in all rooming places occupied by College students, due to the inadequate facilities in Albany," Dean Anna E, Pierce said yesterday. Discouragement of the students in hunting rooming houses was described by Miss fierce, a member of the faculty committee on student health. While certain requirements must be met in all rooming places approved by the faculty, it is not possible to set the standards, which are really desirable, Dean fierce pointed out, for litis would disqualify so many places that there would be a large number of homeless students. "We have to lake conditions as we find them," Dean Pierce said. "Naturally, Albany homes have not been generally planned with a view to ideal housing for students. We can only expect to attain ideal conditions when we are able to build our own quarters. Conditions Unsatisfactory "As it is now, we have to make some compromises, and. while under present conditions it is Hot possible always lo obtain places suitable in every way, we do not wish to be understood a s criticizing Albany housing conditions as a whole. The scattering of students through private homes in a large section of the city could never be expected to be as satisfactory as quartering them in our own residence halls, under conditions created with their needs in view, and with adequate faculty supervision. "Under present conditions, we cannot, for instance, insist on the minimum ventilation and space requirements laid down for hotel rooms. W'c cannot insist on single beds, where two girls share a room. Both these requirements would be highly desirable, but Albany houses have not been built with those things in view. "We have a good many girls who come from small communities, where, even thdtlgh their families are not well to do, they have still been used to spaciousness in their homes, and plenty of room between their house and the next. When these girls look up rooms available at the prices they can pay and find them facing on an alley or directly against the house next door, they get discouraged and homesick, and it is not unusual for them to give up their plans to attend College here. Mothers, too, have on some occasions taken their daughters out of this College because they felt that more satisfactory living conditions could be had elsewhere. Rooms Too Far Away " W e do make some very definite requirements. One is that a parlor or reception room must be provided where women students may receive callers. And we exact an agreement that proper oversight will be exercised in matters pertaining to students' welfare, such as regularity of meals, hours of quiet for study, and hours of retirement. "The students' distance from the College varies from a few minutes' walk to twenty-five minutes or half an hour. In most cases they arc too far away lo make their rooms available for study between classes, a condition which would be most desirable in view of the crowded state at the College, where the benches in the halls have to be utilized for the students daring study periods. We have no study halls whatever. "Commuters also would benefit greatly by our own dormitory facilities. We have a student this year who commutes from Poughkeepsic. Many of them commute distances that are too far for their own welfare, rather than live in rooming houses. "It always puzzles me, that while people generally concern themselves actively in matters pertaining to the welfare of industrialists, it is difficult to arouse any interest in the conditions that students have to meet, or any realization of the importance of the question. It seems to me that the social contacts and environment of the young women who are to be teachers of the future are of the utmost importance, and that there should he much more concern as to whether the best possible conditions are provided for them, and more of the spirit of cooperation toward that end," 1020 29 GRADUATES ENROLL COLLEGES KEEP WOMEN Thompson Completes Task Left To Scott; FOR MASTERS DEGREES OUT TO PROTECT MEN Edits Volume of MacKenzie's Anecdotes Twenty-nine graduate students are en- Evanslon, III.
