WHAT ARE TRADITIONS?
A clear definition
of college traditions is needed, as is
shown by recent tilts between the freshman and sophomore
classes.
It wotdd seem that certain members of the stu-
dent association can not distinguish between college traditions and sophomore rules.
the difference
The difference
between obligation and
is g r e a t :
it is
imposition.
College traditions are the property of the whole student
body.
They
should
be observed
by all.
They should be
enforced by Myskania, which is duly authorized to enforce
them.
They should not be interpreted as license for battles
between freshman and sophomore classes.
A college tradi-
tion should command the respect and obedience of
all, as
long as it is a tradition.
Sophomore rules are a different matter.
Sophomore
rules exist as a direct challenge of the sophomores to the
freshmen. It is over these rules and other conduct of the
two classes that scraps should originate. Traditions should
not form a basis for interclass scraps.
Myskania alone
should enforce traditions. As long as it allows promiscous
enforcement of traditions, just that long will the traditions
be cheap and poorly regarded by freshmen.
And if Myskania does not care to enforce traditions, it should recommend their abolition to the student association. Those who
feel keenly on the subject, should report infraction of traditions to Myskania, which will, we feel sure, put into effect
the recent act of the student association in giving it power
to enforce traditions.
In the meantime, the sophomore class has not been constituted a strung arm of enforcement.
It has made ovn:
misstep in forcing upon a freshman the punishment for
breaking sophomore rules, when really she broke traditions.
Miss Bleeker may feel justified in demanding an apology
from the sophomores. And if justice were to prevail, the
sophomores would offer the apology.
Perhaps it will be
better to leave the matter as it now i s ; but in the future
the sophomores should constrain themselves to their rules;
and not infringe the rights and obligations of Myskania.
WHEN CLUBS WORK TOGETHER
The announcement that the French, German and Spanish
clubs will present a combined program shortly after vacation, lor the entertainment of members of the three clubs
is perhaps the most significant sign of life advanced by
these three departmental clubs this year. It shows that they
realize that they can be of value to each oilier; that they
realize their problems might be common ; that they realize
a combined meeting might have more to offer than three
peanut meetings, catering to only a small group.
We would not, of course, condemn a club because it appealed to but a small group ol people. A small group of
interested people is far belter than a huge group of qucstionable members.
Perhaps the greatest crime of the
French club has been its tendency to take in people who
were more interested in joining a club than in joining
French club. T h e result was a large membership of lioninterested students, whom the few interested members had
lo drag in the harness.
|ly the combination in presenting joint program-., each
club may be able to strengthen itsell and to make membership seem more like .omelhiug worth striving for. 11

TIIK MORONIC INTELLIGENTSIA
"Mechanics arc the nation's most intelligent class, while
clergymen, professors, actors and pyhsiciam rank lowest in
the intelligence scale among the on-morons, Dr, F . K. Free,
scientist, said last night in addressing the annual dinner
of the American Society of Mechanical Kngineers at the
Astor.
'The reason why actors, physicians, ministers and
professors are generally considered above average intelligence is that the standard intelligence tests usually fail
to discriminate between information and intelligence,' Ur.
Free ">aid.
"'Ministers, doctors and university professors are less
fortunate,' he said. 'Public opinion expects them to have
instant and definite opinions about many things concerning
which essential facts are unkown. Their intelligence gets
no exercise. They learn to confuse dogmatic plausibility

VJ2U.
In between these periods the student
is thrown on his own resources a good
deal and is required to educate himself
in a sense that is quite unknown to the
American school boy and girl.
This characteristic runs through the
entire scheme of European education.
Instead of requiring attendance at lectures and laboratories and class periods,
there is a residence requirement which
is expressed in terms of the number of
meals eaten in the common dining hall.
This is the practice at Oxford and
Cambridge and it is the practice at the
Inns of Court. For example, in order to
qualify for the bar examination a student must have eaten a prescribed numberof meals in the hall of his particular
institution, whether it be the Inner temple of Lincoln's inn or the Middle temple.
If he has done so and has practically
ignored all the lectures he may still present himself lor the final examination.
On the other hand, if he has been faithful upon attendance at lectures ami has
not given evidence of residence by "dining in hall" he is not qualified for admission to the examination. This necessarily puts the responsibility upon the individual student for getting the materials
which prepare him for the final test.

The Constitution of tlie United Stales.
By Bertha Haines.
326 pages. ?2. New York: F. S. Crofts and Company.
Every American citizen should have a thorough knowledge of the constitution under which he lives; lie should
know the powers of the national government as contrasted
with those of the s t a t e ; he should know the source from
which the constitution sprang.
This is one of the basiccriteria for the good citizen.
While this text on the constitution does nut present the
document in any new or startling light, it does present it
in a straight-forward, thorough manner.
Starting witli
the backgrounds of political and social democracy in the
colonies, the author leads the reader through the revolutionary and criticil periods to the calling of a convention
at Philadelphia.
Rightly, the greater part of the book is
given over to ill-: constitution and its amendments.
One
good feature is the placing of the part of an amendment in
the same chapter in which it is discussed.
One might wish for a more thorough account of the
compromises of die constitution, which arc barely mentioned. This cutting of the compromises is probably the
penalty to pay for such a concise book of but 320 pages.
The adoption of checks and balances is adequately interpreted. Lists of supplementary readings and a few selected
questions on the constitution are appended to each chapter.
This would make an excellent handbook for the use of
students.
This Man Adams.
By Samuel McCoy, i i i pages. $J.50.
New York: Brentano's.
That John Adams never died is the declaration of his
newest biographer. It is,_ indeed, a difficult lask for a man
to set before himself to find a new viewpoint about so well
known a character as John A d a m s ; about a man whose
edited diary fills volumes of no mean iiroportions. But the
author of this book has indeed found a new point of view
of A d a m s : the point of view of Adams still haunting his
New England binhplacc, and his opinions on modern problems. This is, of course, conjectural history. As much as
we should like lo believe that John himself were alive, we
know it could not be. For this reason, we are a bit likely
to look upon Mr. McCoy's book as fantastical.
But we
wager that John Adams would express himself long and
vigorously—to his famous diary, of course—if he were
alive today.
11 Would be interesting to see how well his
writings would compare with those Mr. McCoy's attributes
to him.
Adams is portrayed as ceding to Jefferson tin- honor of
writing the Declaration of Independence, since he knew that
Jefferson would carry more weight with tin soulh than
would Adams, the New Fnglailder.
The author deplores the lack of good old fashioned diary
keeping on the part of his fellow Americans of llle present
age.
"It's the sign of the great, nevertheless, lo keep a
diary, The reason is, that your great man i-, invariably a
Mi: III.HI. lie thinks about himself, constantly, l i e has to,
it he's going to gel anywhere. * * * "
The selection m Adams papers is good. This book has
dune its bit to keep John Adams from "dying."
It is quite apparent from the foregoing that the educational ideals of the
European place more value upon the social contacts between student and student
than does the American, and the number of students who work for degrees or
for honors is relatively much smaller,

He believes that the problem of the small college is for
it to increase the facilities in its education department, so
that it may supplement the somewhat limited facilities of
the teachers colleges,
H e points out that the latter are
often hampered by lack of funds or equipment, due to
lack of stale support,
T h e liberal arts college can, he
declares, turn out teachers without any direct cost to the
state, in this day ol mounting educational expenses.
But
these small colleges ruusl reach the standards set by the
slate and by the Carnegie foundation, if they are to be of
service. H e would reserve the teachers colleges as pacemakers and as institutions for graduate study.
This is a problem that students of a teachers college
should study. It is of particular interest In students of this
college, where liberal arts and teaching theory are so well

Small Colleges and Teacher Training.
By Jacob (i. Meyer.
ltd pages. ( 1 ,
Bloumington, Illinois. Public School
Publishing Co.
Whether the small liberal arts college should attempt to
train secondary school teachers is the problem of this thesis.
The author, who is dean of education al Manchester Col
lege, Indiana, declares that the small college is a public
institution, in that it admits students ol good standing,
without regard to faith or creed. As a public institution,
it should attempt to render the greatest service possible lo
the state and nation.
He believes that a large number of
students, especially men, are attracted to leaching by the
curricula of the liberal a r t s college, although lliey would
not or could not enter a teachers college.
while the number of those who wish to
obtain the social values, as expressed by
the student relationships, by undergraduate activities, by which is called in
America "extra curricula activities," that
is, those that are known as "pass men,"
is much greater.
In England, especially, the traditions of
the great public schools, represented best,
perhaps, by Eaton or Rugby or Winchester or Harrow, and by the ancient
universities of Oxford and Cambridge,
continue to hold the highest place oi
honor.
These schools and universities continue
to give chief emphasis to linguistic, historical and philosophical studies.
The
sciences have, of course, claimed their
place in the scheme, but what we know
in America as "the vocational ideal" is
quite beyond the pale.
The high schools conducted by the
London county council, and also by private or religious agencies, have adopted
somewhat more modern programs. They
divide the work in the same way as the
public schools but the content is more
practical and more modern.
There is, therefore, a difference in atmosphere which is quite remarkable as
one passes from one of the ancient pub
lie schools to the county council schools.
In Eaton, for example, the atmosphere
is created by traditions that go back a
thousand years.
When one sees the thousands of initials carved upon the panaled walls of
class rooms, the desks, and benches, in
halls and stairways; when one sees that
some of these initials are those of fain
ous statesmen, jurists, diplomatist, oi
great nobles and even of the royal per
sons, he feels the influences of mediaeval
conditions.
The furniture, the school
equipment, the educational apparatus m
these schools is that of ancient days.
The old guild schools are still represented in one or two instances. For ex
ample, the Merchant Taylors school,
founded in 1560, is today a nourishing
middle school, taking children from the
eleventh year through the eighteenth
year, and sending annually a small representative group up to the great universities.

While the Kellogg-Briand peace pact

moral Influence for "peace on earth,
Rood will to man," Dr. Adna VV. Risley,
head of the history department, told the

War for self defense is allowable under the new treaty, Dr. Risley said.
Difficulty of determining the aggressor
is the one great danger of allowing war
for defense, he pointed out.
He believes that the United States
will adhere to the pact, as many other
nations have already done. Adherence
will not mean recognition of Russia, he
said, since a precedent exists by which
the United States declaretl in signing another pact that its adherence should not
be interpreted as recognition of the soviet regime. Dr. Risley declared he is in
favor of adoption of the proposed
treaty.
