ROOM AND HOARD. Although at present the thoughts of the fralci m collcgio aio devoted laigely to the development ot neophytes into woilnv hi others \ia the paddle loute. it is not untimely to gi\e a hide fonsidciation to the augmenting of the tanks next fall The poi icnnial haiiangumg o\ci a iashing systemuhas seen no detmite *»u»lhocl established, and the annual chaotic condition pieralen. at the opening ot the tall teim will be as ewdent this coming veai as in the past unless some immediate action is taken by the fia leinite councils It is an accepted tact that a laige number of Penn State fia tcnuties aie anxious to see the policy ot laisso/ lane cut tailed, vet it is also c\idcnt that a lather huge mmoiitj aie blocking o\cry attempt to mtioducc «i sane lushing plan Hoiiid buga boos have been con Hired by those who lehsh the open season tactics but. like the bad men ot the nni-eiies, thev aie non ost. The pet argument ot the consei\ati\cs was blasted last fall when “lead piping" at bus stops was prohibited. It sounded the death knell for the contention that theie were insufficient loom ing facilities unless the incoming men obtained quaiters m tia ternity houses It is doubtful whethei a legitim,lie objection ically exists. It seems only tan that the ire&hmen should be permitted at least a month to become acquainted with the chapters and only logical that the iiateimties be allowed an equal oppoi tunity to se lect their men judiciously To those brotherhoods that icel that they can not stand daylight competition, we suggest that they iemo\e their highly polished Gieek letter plaques and substitute the loom-and-board sign. TOBACCO EQUALITY “Excry day, m cxery way, it is getting easier and easier to be 1 a dieoico court Judge ” No longer is “he diopped ugaiette ashes on mj caipet” consideied a \alid excuse ior the legal estrange ment ot couples, foi now women arc almost on a tobacco level with men, especially since Vassal has joined the cm avail and allow., smoking within its walls. There arc some who will civ out in alaim against this com paratnely new uee that “thieatens the flower ot womanhood, and bids fan to extinguish every last \estige oi iemimty ” Feai not. jo oldci pillars ot convention,womanhood is not seriously menaced. You are aiguing tiom a fallacy, because “smoking women" do not tonfoim to \our standards. Canon Pnlchaul ol liochestei uttcis pc iHs ot wisdom when he says: “It is perfectly intilo for us okler people to pictend thatHhc standards m force in oui comparative ly simple generation can possibly be the standards that aie useiul or suitable to those who aie younger.” In addition, gieat ndeanlagcs are likely to be domed from the Lend toward tobacco equably. Manufacturers of the “filthy weed” will rejoice. The smiling Jace of the shiek declaring, “What a whale of a dillorence etc. etc ” will be replaced by laugh ing brunette, while Milly Murke’s testimonials will read something like this, “My husband and I both love to see each other smoke Duchess cigarettes. Who said two can’t h\c as cheaply as one?” llowoxer, theic is one other phase to be considered. Perhaps dnoieu court judges will hear this, “Eveiy morning when he went to work, ho stole my Fatimas.” and then we will be back wheio we started from. Men must be complaisant. They must foitify themselves with two packs instead of the customary one. Mints will ever be in demand It is useless to utter a protest The “stronger spec ies” must continue to lemain complaisant until the female takes to the corn-cob and the long, black stogie.
