I t is c o m m o n l y said that there is n o h o n o r a m o n g
thieves. W h e t h e r this would apply t o the light-fingered
m e m b e r s of t h e student body is a m a t t e r of conjecture,
At a n y rate t h e "wee small voice" in several people h a s
not shouted loud enough to be heard.
T h e a t t r a c t i v e lamp s h a d e which covered t h e light
outside t h e College Co-operative book store h a s recently disappeared. Of course it might be t h e work of
archie, t h e roach,—perhaps a form of tribute t o niehitabcl. O n t h e other hand, it is more likely that some
a b s e n t - m i n d e d person stuck it into his pocket a n d
w a n d e r e d blithely off with it.
O t h e r t h i n g s have strangely come u p missing,
Books, formerly of good repute a n d quiet disposition,
have suddenly g r o w n legs and waltzed off with a new
master. Various articles of clothing have sought new
backs t o a d o r n . Perhaps the correct c o m m e n t would
be that it is t o o bad that there isn't a better distribution of t h e benefits of this s t r a n g e power over lost
articles.
Some people seem to think it their bounden duty to
attend each assembly program, whether they intend to
stay only five minutes, or whether they merely want to
"rubber neck" on their way through to Milne High school.
If these people are really so curious as to what manner
of person might be addressing the assembly, we suggest
that they get themselves stepladders by which they might
examine the speaker from any of the windows.
Not only is this old State college custom annoying to
the person who might be trying to address the student
body, but it is also sometimes more annoying to the students themselves—especially those' who sit in the rear of
the auditorium.
Especially with this nice weather, it seems a bit of a
shame that practice teachers should not avail themselves
of the opportunity of getting a bit of .sunshine before

SICRII) UNDSET W R I T E S
OE MODERN MARRIAGE
By M. C. II.
All books lor salt in Co-op.
Ida Elizabeth, by Sigrid Undset, translated from
the N o r w e g i a n by A r t h u r G. Chater. Alfred A. Knopf
Co., N e w York. 433 pages.
Sigrid Undset again writes of m a r r i a g e — m a r r i a g e
treated in t h e modern way. S h e bases her entire story
on the study of the character of Ida Elizabeth, m a k i n g
her surroundings, husband, and children purely background material.
Ida Elizabeth, a y o u n g m o t h e r of t w o children,
lives in a small Norwegian town. H e r husband, Frithjof Braatd, is hut an adolescent whom she has to
care for as well as support. Miss Undset shows how
her affection for the man is more maternal than the
usual conjugal affection. In spite of this, Ida Elizabeth
hesitates a long time before siie makes a definite break
with him.
A n o t h e r man comes into her life —this time a dominant personality, lawyer Toksvold.
Unfortunately
little Carl has taken a great dislike for him. Should
she be true to her duly toward her children, or should
she sacrifice her children's feelings for her own pleasure'
H o w e v e r , she lets things go, and before she
knows it, s h e is again caught in the web of Frithjof's
family troubles.
T h e book is truly great in that il is not only an
expression of Sigrid Undset's h u e for her country
and her people, but also her love for humanity. T h e
story itself is the conllicl between marital duly and
personal satisfaction. Sigrid Undset does not definitely

"Will Campus Queen Be Blonde or Brunette?"
Ceremonies Tomorrow Night To Reveal Answer
Do gentlemen prefer blondes,—or does the male element of State college
disagree with Anita Loos' famous aphorism? Will the eleventh Campus Queen
be a seventh blonde sovereign or will the coronation ceremonies reveal a ruler
with brunette tresses ? These questions have been predominant in undergraduate
conversations during the week. The answers will be forthcoming tomorrow
night at the traditional Campus Day activities in Page hall auditorium.

The Fault ol Angels. By Paul Horgan, Harper & Brothers. $2.50
This year's Harper Prize Novel is a light and
genial comedy, an odd but able successor to the
volumes that have preceded it in the past five
years. Its theme is built around a group of
literary and musical esthetes living against the
background of a middle sized American city
whose richest citizen is determined to make culture bow before the magic of his check book.
With deft satire Paul Horgan builds up his
comedy, avoiding a direct treatment of the relation of the artist to American society, contenting himself with the presentation of the characters in their strange and self-contained world.
Rochester, New York, is the thinly disguised
background of the story, and the late George
Eastman is suggested in the character of Henry
Canson, whose fortune is the magnet which has
drawn together most of the characters of the
book. Paul Horgan can write of this with authority, for he studied at the Eastman School
of Music, and spent three years as painter and
scene designer with the Rochester American
Opera company. However, the relations to
reality are of slight account in this novel, for
it moves along with a cheerful disregard for the
exactitudes of reality, either in character or in
background. The art of overstatement is a fine
one, but, for the most part, the author has mastered it, and has succeeded in giving life and
color to a set of characters who are absurdly unreal in many ways,
As the book opens the art world of Dorches-
ter has attained its maximum degree of stability and balance, but with the advent of Nina,
wife of the newly hired Russian conductor, all
semblance of order vanishes. Possessed of ambition, which Alexander Pope has called "the
fault of angels and of fools", Nina sets out,
girded in the impenetrable armor of simplicity,
to do battle with the worldly elements of Dorchester life. For Nina there are no small beginnings; the omnipotent Mr. Ganson is the object of her first seige, for she contemplates making of him an American Tolstoi whose message,
backed by the authority of his bank balance,
shall go ringing through the wilderness of materialism.
Weeping, smiling, pleading she disarranges
the lives of the whole artistic melange in Dorchester. Charmingly she steps into their love
affairs, sweetly she drags out the skeletons in
their closets, ruthlessly she upsets the even
tenor of their ways, and when she leaves her
friends are many, though she converts few.
Nina is undoubtedly the ablest portrait in the
book, though there are many others who are
drawn with fine skill, for Paul Horgan is adept
at finding the phrase or the gesture that can
neatly sum up the externals of character. Perhaps the chief fault of the book lies in the fact
that it is so exclusively devoted to the exteriors
and surfaces of the scene. Brightly, even brilliantly painted, the personages of The Fault of
Angels lack depth and warmth, and are sometimes dangerously close to caricature, However, this flaw is more than compensated for by
the many moments of high comedy that enliven the pages of the book.

Membership in the society is based
upon scholastic achievement.
Each
year the highest four per cent of the
members of the senior class who have
maintained an average of 2.00, or better, in the first three years of the College work are eligible for membership
in the fall. Six per cent of the remaining members of the class are
chosen for membership in the society
in the spring. The requirements state
that, in this case, the average of 2.(10
must have been maintained (luring the
sophomore and junior years and the
first semester of the senior year.
Transfer students are not eligible for
membership until the second semester.
Evelyn Wells is automatically named
president of the society this year
since she has maintained the highest
scholastic average. Her average is 2.87,
which is the highest of any recorded
since the society was organized.
Just a bit of the inside dope, folks,

EDWARD COOPER
WRITES ARTICLE
ON BOOKKEEPING
"Comparative Merits of Single and
Double Periods in Bookkeeping" is the
subject for an article published in the
September number of the Balance Sheet
and written by Edward C. Cooper, instructor of commerce. The article is
an excerpt from his master's thesis for
which he received his degree at the University of Ohio in 1931.
In the middle west, as in some places
farther east, double periods of bookkeeping are used in secondary schools.
The article proves that there is no
justification for using these, and that
single periods are just as effective. To
quote from his writing : "The examination results indicate that the factor of
single period or double period is not
an important factor. Since the double
period plan of instruction requires
twice as much teaching time and twice
as much teaching equipment, the use
of the double period is not justified."
The statistics for the study were taken
from the "Commercial Educational
Survey" made by the Whitewater State
Teachers' college in 1930.
