T h e report is printed by School and Society. I f it is considered typical, there can be little disagreement with the conclusion of its writer that more emphasis on the modern period is needed in the teaching of literature. Startling lack of familiarity with the names of modern essayists, poets and prose writers is shown by the students. A decided trend toward the less worthwhile of the magaAlmost no acquaintance with the zines is noticeable. better class of magazine is contrasted with numerous mentions of such publications as " A r t Lovers," "College •Humor," " H o t Hog," and " T r u e Confessions." O n e student, the report says, named " M r . Anonymous" as his favorite poet. Reginald Stevens Kimball who prepared the report says that "any course ill modern literature which is- to accomplish its aim must send the students directly to the type of magazine in which we hope eventually to interest them," Granted that this is trite, we rise to a s k : " W h o is going to semi these students' teachers to that type of. magazine/" It will need no lengthy argument to prove to most of lis that high school students are not the only learners whose taste in reading could be improved. Run over in your mind the magazines which you saw this week in ' the rooms of State College students. Which magazines do you yourself read? If you are familiar with the better magazines published today, y. u a r e one in' ten, If you are familiar with the current issues of the publications devoted to your major and minor subjects, you are one i:i twenty. If you think this is an exaggeration, glance over the "English Journal," the "Historical Review" and the other special magazines on the College's library racks. No dog-eared copies here. If you read the daily papers and you belong to the average reading group, what page do you turn to first? The comics, of course. Then the sports if you are a man, the society and fashions if you are a woman. In short, the froth of the news, the whipped cream atop the genuine food. lieforc high school students are censured for their taste in reading matter, their teachers should look at their own practices. MR. SHAW ON EDUCATION Bernard Shaw In The New Student "As far as I can gather, if the students in the American universities do not organize their own education, they will not get any. T h e professors are overworked, schoolmasters underpaid, and deprived of all liberty of speech and conscience. From them nothing can be expected. The governing bodies are under the thumbs of the plutocrats who pay the piper and call the tune. Englishmen who become professors in American Universities rush back to England to enjoy the comparative freedom and enlightenment of Oxford, Cambridge, and London, though these might have been thought unapproachable in their efficiency as extirpators of the human mind. "Secondary, education as imposed by college dons will wreck civilization: in fact it has already almost done so. T h e remedy is co-operative organization by the consumers: that is, by the students, If the American baker could give hi,; customers what he liked instead of what they liked, American bread would be as had as American university education. In forming Intellectual Soviets, and establishing the Dictatorship of the Learner, the American students '•'Educators have recently come to the conclusion Ihal men of the world must shoulder responsibility, if they are to be truly educated. Furthermore they have decided that no student is fully trained lo shoulder such responsibility that is treated like a truant school boy all during his college days. "The old English and American idea was to force the college student to his classes. Physical punishment was not uncommon for the student who failed to come to his classes. Later on, when this punishment proved entirely too barbaric, a tongue lashing—a genuine 'balling out', crudely speaking—and often suspension from school was the reward of the class-skipping student. VILLAINOUS CROOK VENTURES AGAIN; FOWLER TO POPULARIZE DICTIONARY i BY E. V. K tile Strange Adventures of Mr. Collins. By Frank Heller. 356 pp. New York: Crowcll. Mr, Collins' adventures arc strange enough, ill fact, in one or (wo instances, too strange for belief. But that will not discourage the true mystery story adiet. This group of Mr. Collins adventures includes seven stories. The author seems to have found the master-detective theme worn rather thin by a series of master-detectives, so Mr. Collins continues in his n d e of master-crook. There is one adventure on shipboard, another in which Mr. Collins mixes with women's suffrage With interesting results, and live other escapades in England and on the continent. The same people appear in all of them, although the adventures do not form a continuous story. There is plenty of mystery and Mr. Collins is sufficiently villainous lo satisfy anybody. .•/ Dictionary of Modem English Usage. By II. W. Fowler. 7-12 pp. London: Clarendon Press, English teachers m a y before long owe much (o Mr. Fowler, for if anything will do it his newest book will make the dictionary popular. At least this dictionary will he popular. "Modern English Usage" is a valuable supplement to any number of dictionaries, Without in any sense suggesting an attempt to be "smart" at the expense of accuracy, the author has been able to compile a dictionary that sparkles with clever and apt explanations and meanings. When one looks in it for a reference, he finds himself reading on through the explanations of other words for entertainment as much as for instruction. And this book is not a novel, it is a dictionary! Sounding Brass. Hy Ethel Mauniu. .3-10 pp. $2.00, New York: Duliield. Ethel Mauniu has something to say about advertising. And the manner in which she says it is a revelation in those who have never before heard of this novelist. This young British girl has something of our own Sinclair Lewis in her style; yet there is no suggestion of imitation of the Lewis or Mencken satirical method. She has a slant of her own. "Sounding Brass" is the story of the development of an advertising man, Miss Maunin knows the profession of which she wriles from personal experience, yet she is not afraid to treat her subject as she thinks it deserves. Youth Looks at the Church. With an introduction by Stanley High. 220 pp. New York; Abingdon Press. The Evauston conference, as the National Interdenominational Student conference is generally known, has left a deep impress upon both religious and collegiate America. "Youth Looks ai the Church" is the compelling and helpful report of this conference. It includes conferences, addresses, questions, discussions and findings. Mr. High believes that "the growing concern among college students during the last few years for the application of Christianity to social and international problems has led to a rather widespread renewal of interest in the church as the agency through which the Christian solution of those problems might be found." There was liberalism cno'Ugli at the Evanstnn conference to satisfy even the more unreasonable of the younger liberals; this report of lite conference is equally liberal in its views.
