A most nllllcult thing to define la
cotlego Hjilrlt Ono tnnn ihlnka It ta
measured by nolac. unothci by clnaa
battles; still another by ntundnnco
at meetings und gomes. There may bo
some who-would measuro It by acholas
tlo standing; ,1 do not know. Person
ally I would classify It au a sentiment
pervading tlto uffcctlons of every stu
dent yet rarely manifest in material
form. It Is tho unseen force which
makes or mars n college as It Is various
ly Interpreted. *
To defend college rowdyism ua an
evidence of college spirit Is an almost
uucriloglaus abuse of the beautiful sen
timent. To see thousands of students
standing and singing
May no act of mlno bring shumo
To a heart that loves thy nomo
la tho very embodiment and cssonco of
college spirit—lf tho song proceeds from
tlto heart and not fiom tho lips alone
College spirit Is the mugnet which
drew hundreds .of students back to
complete their courses of study after
their war service College spirit Is the
lure which brings Hie gruduuto back
from business to glvo u few days to
puiu sentiment College spirit is tho
feeling which makes so many Penn State
men believo In their college, to defend
und not to uttnek it, to try to amend a
buses and not to simply stand by and
find fault, to find the enuso for a thing
boforo taking steps to correct It Col
lege spirit ranks with love of home and
country-and the-most beautiful things
of life.
In this connection, the COLLEGIAN
reprints from Its Issue of April 20, 1918,
-the definition of college spirit written
by J. A Allan! *2O, and which won a
prize offered at thnt ttmo
"To bo loyal to our cotlego, to our
dally work, to oui Ideals, to our sense
of honor, to our country und to our
Clod.”
Ex-President Taft, on the occasion
of his visit to this college. Illustrated
his policy of always doing wbut he can
and never limiting himself by studying
tho terms of his contract Ho camo un«
- dir an engagement made through a lec
turo bureau nnd was bound to give nn
evening lecture But, Instead of con
fining himself to the one address and
pluullng fatigue nnd tho necessity of
sparing himself, he most willingly spoke
to the student body on arrival In re
sponse to their cnidlul welcome and af
ter his evonlng address ho went to tho
University Club and spoko to Its mem
bers of bis convictions of tho necessity
of the moro serious attltudo of work on
tho part of Amoitcan students At 11
o'clock he was obliged to atop In ordor
to be driven to Tyrone to get a slcopor
for New York and there to take part
next morning In a conference on tho
League to Enfoi.e Peace, Tho results
o ftills conference were reported In tho
Sunday papers.
He confessed thut from his younger
days ho bad mad.- a practice of always
doing what he could for any causo
vvhero ho felt he could bo of help and
not tako refuge behind lack of Umc,
terms of contract or bodily fatigue.
Perhaps oil of u-t could not reach tho
presidency by following his examplo
but many of us would rlso faster In
tho world or hi our professions by a
greutor willingness to serve according
to our abilities than according to our
contracts

HONOR SYSTEM BIG
SUCCESS AT ILLINOIS
The successful workings of the Hon
or System at tho University of Illinois
may bo Judged from the following,
clipped from the "Dally mini", the
undergraduate publication nt that In
stitution.-
"Thiee students were diopircd fmm
the University und one was dropped
from n course imd denied credit by the
action of the Council of Administra
tion In tho rcgulat weekly meeting
last night.
"Tho flist of tho two cases reported
by the honor commission was thut of
a ntudunt who copied nearly nn cntlio
examination. Imt flatly denied the
cheating until tho facts wcic brought!
before him j
"A student caught cilhblng In math
la was donled credit for copying pul
of nn examination In trigonometry.
Tho owner of the pnpet copied watt
not awnro of the violation of tho honen
system nnd tho case was brought be
fore tho commission by another mem
ber of the class
"Thus f.ai no 1 ecommendntion of the
honor commission linn mot with tho
disapproval of the council, although
one enso was referred for fmthcr con
sideration nml Inter npprovod Faith
In tho ability of the honui commission
to deal xv Ith the cheaters Justly seems
to bo Implied by tho notion of the
council
“A third student who was dismissed
from the University permanently, was
convicted of npptoprlntlng the ovei*
coat of n fellow student nt tho recent
unit open house He took the coat
home nnd cut out the name and other
Identification marks, with evident in
tent to keep it, li was believed"

the Master Force in Manufacturing
THE marvels of electricity have revolutionized our manu
facturing industries. With belts and pulleys replaced
by electric motors operating automatic—almost human —
machines, many a slow and tedious process has been elimi
nated. The factory worker’s task of yesterday is made
pleasant by his command of this magic power.
The Crane Company’s plant at Chicago—electrical through*
out—is a mode! of industrial efficiency. Its 10,000 horse
power of driving energy is brought by three small wires
from a distant power plant. Then electricity drives the
machinery which handles the coal for heating, cuts the steel,
sifts the sand and sorts the material—in fact does everything
from scrubbing the floor to winding the clock.
Such an institution is marvelous—superhuman—-made thus
by the man-multiplying force of electricity. The General
Electric Company has been instrumental in effecting this
evolution. First, by developing successful electric gener
ating and transmission apparatus to furnish economically
this modem form of power. Secondly, through many years
of active co-operation with hundreds of manufacturers, it
has mastered the art of applying the use of electrical energy
to a multitude of needs. And finally, through branch
roducts are
