LOHMAN The Tobacco Store Geo. B. Jackson Holnjes Bldg., Allen Street Secretary of I. P. A. Visits State Mr Neil D. Cranmer, of Syra cuse, the eastern secretary of the Intercollegiate Prohibition Associa tion, visited Penn State over Sun day. He spoke to a special meet ing of the league at 1:30 Saturday. In reviewing the work of other Pennsylvania colleges it appears that Penn State is somewhat be hind smaller colleges like Dickin son and Gettysburg, where there are only one-fifth as many students. While here Mr. Cranmer added at least 20 new members to the roll of 40 of the local league. On Sunday at three o’clock a fairly large audience heard the talk on two important topics, “The Legal Phase of the Liquor Prob lem" and "Does Prohibition Pro hibit?” Decisions of state and national supreme courts show the sale of intoxicating liquor to be unconstitutional. Therefore, to over throw this “Legalized Outlaw” all that is needed is that the govern ment break its partnership with it, Does prohibition prohibit? A few arguments are as follows: If liquor men (in a dry state) say it does not prohibit they confess that they are law breakers. In one month’s travel in Maine Mr. Cran mer saw only two drunken men in all the cities and they were apparently old timers, not young men. If pro hibition does not prohibit, why do liquor men oppose it so strenuous ly? The saloon is the poor man’s club only in one sense. It is used to beat his wife and knock the bread from his children’s hands. In a representative case it was found that 50 out of 65 drinking men go to the saloon for drink rather than social life. Finally, Mr. Cranmer set forth the aims and activities of the I. P. A. as a whole, and at Penn State in particular. The depart ments of the work include a study class every two weeks; lectures by college instructors giving the rela tion of liquor to different lines of work; the home, state and national oratorical contests; and as exercise, deputation work supplemented by students’ articles published in coun ty newspapers. The fact that the league has no connection whatever with the Prohibition party was strongly emphasized. The work of this organization will bear investiga tion. This question, the greatest in the world today, must be faced by every student. Schedule of Gym. Classes. Freshmen 1. M. Th. 11 a. m. Freshmen 2. T. F. 11 a. m. Freshmen 3. M. Th. 3p. m. Freshmen 4.

THE PENN STATE COLLEGIAN' FARMERS’ WIVES LEARN TO CUT HIGH LIVING COSTS Practical illustrations in reduc ing the cost of living are to be giv en farmers’ wives at the Pennsyl vania State College in connection with the Winter Course in Agri culture. For several years farm ers from all over the State have come here to learn the newest wrinkles in scientific agriculture, and this year their wives are of fered equal chances to- improve their methods of doing daily tasks. Miss Pearl MacDonald, who came from Wisconsin to help the wives of Pennsylvania farmers solve the increasingly difficult problems of household administra tion, will conduct the new work. She will tell the women studying Home Economics about the com positions of various foods, the purposes they serve in the body, food values, the principles of cook ing, proper food combinations and food substitutes. Miss MacDon ald said since every home-keepei must consider the food problem three times each day, every day in the year, because of the steady ad vance in food prices, a reliable knowledge of food materials is be coming indispensable for the wom an in the home who desires to pur chase those materials wisely and to nourish her household properly. A course will also be given in Home Nursing and Emergencies. It will include a discussion of the nature of diseases and their causes, and of simple practical methods to be followed in the home-care of the sick. UNITED STATES UNPRE PARED TO RESIST GERMAN INVASION. The absolute lack of military preparation in the United States to support the Monroe Doctrine was strikingly put before the class in military science at the Pennsyl vania State College, today, by Lieu tenant A. D. Chaffin, U. S. A., com mandant of the cadet regiment. Lieutenant Chaffin told the students that the notion held in this coun try that the United States could not be invaded is not shared by military experts of Europe. He said that if Germany had no com plications nearer home, and had a mind to challenge the Monroe Doc trine, she could put 200,000 per fectly trained troops in New Eng land more quickly than her Hes sians came here in 1776 to help George 111. “Von Edelsheim, a member of the German general staff,” said Lieutenant Chaffin, “has published an interesting account of the meth ods by which Germany could ‘im pose her will’ on the United States. She could land a force, he declares, that would overwhelm our feeble army, and brush aside our recruits. She could isolate one or more of our great centers, tear up the rail roads, hold the cities to ransom, destroy our public or quasi-public buildings, and all other structures that might be advantage to a de fending army. There would be no thought of permanent conquest but Von Edelsheim is serenely confi dent that a German army could wreak such havoc in a very short time that this country would be glad to quit.” The following conversation was overheard as the people Were leav ing the Auditorium after the con cert last Sunday night. First town boy, "Why does everybody stand up when the band plays The Star Spangled Banner?” Second town boy, “I guess to give the people -a chance‘to put on their wraps.” J. B. Minford.
