This, however, mates it impossible fat many students to enjoy Penn State's chief social functions, and mates it necessaiy fm most students to lefuse then support for the least Popular of the dances. II we undeistand the class treasury system the lem eased expenditme for the all-College dances merely micas, the amount each class will be able to donate to a class meniotial fund Yet, if the eat het dances on tic social calendar ae well attended, under present con dition, tt s&es almost cei tam that the later dances will show a substantial deficit So fat nothing has been done at Penn State as in most of the other large colleges to curtail the social season at a time when students have less money for layer les and recreation than eoer before The Inter de, Budget Commatee del well to decrease slightly the class dance allotments But the reduction in expendi ture, should base been ample enough to haw decreased all ailmis,ron prices accordingly.

EXEMPTIONS FROM FINALS The suggestion that students mho have movcsl their soperionty in sonic subjects he eseinpt flown final ex amination, is an old idea that has been tiled at various tones in the past. It is tine that in general cam sec, e peeially in most ol all Lama' Alts COMSC4, the value a a final examination as a detellninant of what has been loained doling the semmtel is pi aetteally negligible It is possible to amen e a great deal of knouledge with rut benefit of te‘tbook; and that knossledge is not usually called fin in any esanunation. Examinations will always be annoying, and their elimination altogether would be highly desirable, acem d ire to a great ninny people. But it must be admitted that in technical and (so-called) practical courses this exemption pincess does not seen, to Inc possible Even before the COll4lllClation of such a method, the need for daninishing the sties, placed upon esanunntions by some instinctois might well he investigated It 19 obvious that the time has passed when one-third of the total r ark fm the semester may be de: iced from a two-hoot bluebook, yet some pm slot in this method of gi Their would doubtless be a gi eat outcry if it were suggested that all instiuctois follow the practice of evempung students Possibly a move to make the pi hr den a matter at the discretion of the instzuetm oi the di pal Uncut would be feasible. - Tomei tow Penn State's basketball team prys off the lid of the winter's season. The disap pointments of the fall season should be forgotten and the student limb, should be cheated by the fact that in basketball, wrestling, and boxing the College is rept°. rdated this year by teams well able to uphold the high standnids set by the Lion winter teams of former years. OLD MANIA Canada is a very piogregshe country They acre having a depiession long before this country slatted to think about it. And just recently we learned that students in the C. d. F. and Political Science Schools or Toiontn University get together nrd lure a 9tenoglaphel to take notes on iodates The students pay a small fee fm this service, and receive copies of the notes at the end of each ueek. This, we maintain, is progress As one more step in the 'tight dliection, we suggest that the sub smibmg students form a Sunday Evening Fireside Club, NI, hie), would meet each Sunday evening around a large open fireplace, and limn the accumulated notes.

The proclamation posted by the "Guardian Angels" of 1907 was print led on cheap peen paper and attract ed attention with a "Hey Rube , " at the top of the poste, "You measley, young upstarts," it continued, "whose fond pamnts have seen fit to place you, their infantile offspring, into the gentre hands of the painstaking class of 1007, base ventured to show your verdancy whore it must be endured 'by your honorable superiors" "We mils, how fresh and green you are," adds the proclamation, "and that these shortcomings are only to be polished off by a seizes of rubl eating and empuipling chastisements, by the lordly diocese of the sopho more class. With a view of this mid we publish the folloning HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS" A list of thnteen rules follows. The freshmen are advised not to use to bacco since "green things don't burn and they shouldn't smoke." Another admonition was, "being fresh and given and susceptible to light, it is best to beware of the tender light of a 'maiden's eyes, so AVOID THE GIRLS" CORRECTS EXAhIINATION DATE Ex:lomatlon in Comma. 25 moll In bald on Tuesday at 2 o'clock in stead of Finlay according to a cot cotton notice from the scheduling of- INSPECT BELLEFONTE PI, VNT Jumel inch ti ml engmeming stu nts mspeetml the Wont of the Titan Iota! company at Bellefonte Wednes- Fraternity Presidents All Proofs of - La Vie Groups should - be returned to the Photo Shop—at once.
