D e c e m b e r 14, 1938 Vol. Xfff, No. 12 - .'PROFESSIONAL MINDEDNESS To the student observer, it would appear that the student body here has become more professionally minded in the last few, years. While it is not the purpose of tin's editorial to ascribe a reason for this growth in the professional attitude, a large share of it is without doubt due to the expansion of the education department. With more professional courses, it is only natural that students should come to think more professionally. It is in line with this growth of professional thinking that the N E W S plans to present from time to time articles on current trends in education, of interest to the future secondary school teachers of the state. This does nol mean that the N E W S will in any sense attempt to become an educational journal. It does nol mean that legitimate news of undergraduate activities will be sacrificed to permit the publication of educational material. It does not mean the establishment of another department in the NEWS. It does mean o n l y this: with the co-operation of the education department, we Itopc to present news stories of a professional nature such as should—and will, we hope— interest a share of our readers. Intelligent student and alumni comment on these articles will be welcome. SANTA CLAUS MONSTROSITIES Some thirty Santa Clauses blossomed out this week in purple and yellow toques, when the .sophomores distributed the freshman insignia f o r winter wear. While the return to the traditional colors is a marked step forward, the present style of toques leaves much to be desired. The question is tin's: why are freshmen men required to wear the toques? Is it to distinguish them from other students and from citizens of Albany? O r is it to subject them to ridicule? W e believe that the reason for forcing the men to wear toques is the former. W e believe that the latter reason is not valid. Then why should the toques be of such atrocious color schemes? Pcrhas yellow and purple: is better than green and yellow, or red and green, as the colors have been in recent years. Th,e, move toward standardization is a step forward, in that Albanians will in time learn to associate the standard color with a definite idea—a State College freshman. Hut before the standardization is completed, the question that should be asked is t h i s : Is the combination of yellow and purple the most desirable combination? It would seem that it is not, if the toques distributed this week are a failsample of what may he expected in the future. And the shape of the toques may also he questioned. This is especially true if the freshmen have to turn in the yellow band. At times one is reminded of that notorious figure of the colored funny papers, Happy Hooligan. It would seem that the freshman men might look littler than so many Happy Hooligans. Would it not be wise to decide upon a standard headgear of a different type? Thc'berets now in vogue might be adopted. A purple b e n t , with perhaps a small yellowgold button, would, we believe, he both more dignified and more suited to the occasion. It is perhaps a debatable question as to whether so small a class of freshman men should be obliged to wear insignia off the campus. Hut when they are obliged to wear it, the student association could al leasl try to make this insignia worthy of the college it represents. Nothing can now be done about the present monstrosities. Hut now is the lime to decide upon the insignia In In- distributed next year. American journalism surely is going to the dogs. Here it is but a few days before Christinas, and we have not yet run across the letter to Virginia on a single editorial page. " A l . l . YVOKK A N ! ) \'<) PI.AY " It's an old axiom about all work and no play making Jack a dull hoy. Ii is quite its likely thai all seriousness and no jokes will make for dry pedagogy, We are fortunate, of course in having the Lion with us. Ilui the lengthy lapses between the appearance of llie successive I.ions need something refreshing. T o relieve tile student body of these great period-, of humorless grinding, and perhaps io save them from the perils of the commercial tunny papers, the Nr.ws has gal iantly come to ihe fore with its series of faculty jokes. When the publication of these jokes was projected, we thought of one man to start off the series. Professor Walker has attained considerable fame with his contemporaries on the faculty and with students alike for his rich store of Scotch jokes. We've robbed (he storehouse of one of his gems, and present it in this issue. Faculty need nol fear that we shall hide in the by-ways with a net, just awaiting for them to pop jokes. We shall use their wisecracks only with permission of the jokers. Students who know of good ones are invited to put us on the track of thtiu. Sleuth "J", the jokes editor, will put on her regalia and go a-slctithiug, Now—laugh, future pedagogue, laugh.

Twelve Portraits of the Trench Revolution. By Henri ,531 pages. Mt rami. Translated by Madeline Boyd, $.).b0. Boston: Little, Brown and Company. To those students who have taken Professor llidley's course in the French revolution, this hook will seem like an old acquaintance; lo others, it will In- a new friend. In either case, the jacket, the bright orange-red cover, Ihe unusual woodcuts and the well written text will he an in spiration to read the stirring adventures of Ihe revolution. Many of the reci guized anecdotes—such as the universally known one of Mirabeau and Ihe bayonet points are here. in the company of many others Ihat equally well illuminate the chronicles of a nation in violent reform. The hook is a series of twelve essays on Mirabeau, Danton, Robespierre, Saint-Just, Marat, IJesmoulins, Vcrgniatid, Louis X V I , the Women, Soldiers ami Generals, Leaders of the Mob and Secondary Figures. M. Herautl writes with a facile pen, with dm- consideration and al limes reverence for ihe opinions of Aulard and Mathiez, Ihe two recognized authorities of the period, lie does in this hook for the leaders of the French revolution whal Ur, Risley does in his biography course for American statesmen: he makes the leaders more than historical figures: he makes them humans as well. This hook may well be used to supplement a standard text on the revolution. The liilher. By Katharine Holland Brown. MM pages. $2. New York: John I lay. Company. John Stafford ran an unpopular aholitionisl newspaper in Xew Fiigland. early in 1850. Despairing of finding even one convert to Ills cause, he packed lip his family Mercy Rose, a charming daughter; a trio of mischievous hoys and Aunt Celeslia into a Coiic.stoga wagon and sei out for Illinois, where he hopes lo start over again with less oppo silioii.

BRI/IIACHKR There is no division in European schools to correspond to the American junior high school period. In place of it there is a unit which extends from the eleventh year of age to the sixteenth year of age, or, to express it in other terms, there is a unit which covers our Junior high school and Senior high school period, and it seeks to accomplish almost exactly what our high school seek to accomplish, namely, preparation for college or preparation for commerce and industry. The subject content of this period in the European schools is much like the subject content of our American high schools, including as it does the native or mother tongue, two or three selected foreign languages, mathematics, two or three sciences and some history. At the completion of this period another process of elimination is put into operation. Examinations are set for Ihe | purpose of .selecting the students of un j usual ability. Those who fail to qualify | in the higher group are given a "school 1 leaving certificate" which will admit them Drums is the story of John Fraser, a youngster in the South during the Revolution, T h e book has one great value that many novels of the Revolution decidedly lack: a picture of social conditions preceding the conflict. Here we see the Southern gentlemen and their game cocks, the hackwoods smithy, the tutor and the Indian chieftain. This does not mean that action is missing: the young reader will find enough to make him regret when he turns over the last ieaf. The Treaties uj 1778. Fdited hy (i. Chinard. Introduction bv lames Brown Scott. 7ti pages. Baltimore: I ohm. Hopkins Press. The treaties of amity and commerce with France, following Ihe battles of Saratoga, accorded the United States a recognized stains as a de jure' slate. It is, then, to ibis treaty thai we owe our .standing as an independent nation. As such, ii deserves far more study than is accorded il in the usual lexis, T o facilitate such study, the Instiiul Franca is de Washington has issued as Ihe fust of its historical cahiers the French and Fnglish translations of the treaties, with an iulroduction hy a foremost international lawyer. Preliminaries and the ratification are also included. The introduction sketches the background of tin trcaly and shows its influence on American independence. The hook is attractive in its buff and blue hoard cover, and is an incentive to the reading of whal might ordinarily he regarded as a dry text. It deserves a place of honor in any bonk.shell of .American history. to the better positions in commerce and industry. Those who qualify in the group ol the more able matriculate for the professional schools and the universities. The eliminating process semis the great ma jority of those who enter the middle •:-chool period into industry at once. A small group is selec.ed for the higher educational opportunities and are allowed to continue their education in ihe middle schools, They now select special inuresis and carry on more intensive studies.
