To Study Needs
The committee drew up a plan by
which all subscriptions were to be
voluntary, free from any obligation
other than a desire to help the dis
tiessed, Dean Steidle said. A sum
of $25,000 was suggested as an ad
equate College fund.
A group has been appointed from
its members by the committee to study
the needy cases and stricken legions
throughout the State. They will rec
ommend to the general committee in
what places and in what ways the
mossy would be used to prevent act
ual hunger and want. The
recognizes that the scope of their
work includes institutional, local,
county, and State relief, the chair
man said.
All Staffs Included
All staffs, including faculties, the
military training instruction, the ad
ministration, along with grounds and
buildings department, 'sill take part
in the relief plan Definite action
will be taken at dhpaitmental meet
ings today and tomorrow,
"In view of the widespread distress
throughout the State, it seqned to the
committee that it would be a good
thing to provide the means whereby
the Pennsylvania State College m her
place as the State supported College
might make a concerted gesture,"
Dean Steidle said.
RUSSELL TALKS IN
SUNDAY SERVICES
Dean at Duke Unnersity Discusses
Appliedlions of Golden Rule
Before Chapel Audience
The Golden Rule is the only moral
fosinula which is applicable to the in
waid ethical system required in the
ethical confusion of today, Dr Elbm t
Russell, Dean of the School of Re
ligion at Duke University, told the
chapel audience in Schwab auditorium
Sunday morning.
"You can't practice the , Golden Rule
unless you can feel the human
.ness of human beings," Dr. Russell
said. "We must become acquainted
with our fellow men and consider their
needs and desires. If it is hard for
us to understand other people, it is
hard far us to be honest with our
selves," he declared.
The speaker explained that to be
honest to himself one must remember
that everyone wants Justice tempered
with mercy when he himself is
in the wrong. It is necessary that we
interpret-the principles of the Golden
Rule into our everyday lives at pll
times, he said.
"To insure the observance of this
great principle, we must have behind
it a dynamic force and spiritual
strength that will eliminate the self
ish and the greedy, and that will help
us walk in the light of love," Dr. Rus
sell concluded.
Prof. Kalman J. DeJuhasz, of the
engineering experiment station, re
mind the Rudolph Diesel award at
the annual meeting of the American
Association of Mechanical Engineers
in New York city last Thursday The
award was given for his presentation
of a paper, "Dispersion of Sprays in
Solid Injection Oil Engines," which
was adjudged the best paper read at
the meeting.

H-RAH" DAYS 0
NS ARE OVER,
ball games and moss meetings is not
due to a decline in college spirit, but
rather to the change-over toward con
servatism—the revolt against ex
tremes, the dean believes The ex
tremes of the so-called jazz age are
now taboo because "they just simply
aren't being done."
"Your college youth today who is
in the mode is comparatively unob
trusive, quiet and genteel, having
quite a lot of poise and considerable
personal chum," Dean Warned, said
"The popular girl now may not dif
fer greatly from lees predecessor, the
flapper, in morals, brains, or social
position, but she must have' finesse
and reserve."
This same revolt against extremes
is responsible for the present attitude

toward militarism, prohibition, and re

today is not a pacifist or a militarist,

clined to take the middle ground
"My feeling is that the present gen-
I oration in college is better equipped
than its predecessors because it is
challenging and reviewing every
thing," the dean said. "It is not
bound down by traditions or customs
and is considering all moblems with
intelligence and calm deliberation. I

all ploblems depends on honest and
intelligent reasoning and this kind of
reasoning seems to be what the mod
