In the pictures which heshowed, many of which he took him­self in the cities of Illinois, the inad­equate playgrounds and unsanitarysurroundings were evident. The play­grounds in many cases were filthyalleys, even in Springfield and the'lowns where there is no reason forcongestion, with the open country of­fering so many possibilities forspreading out."In the small towns," said Profess­or Tufts, "Alton, East St. Louis, Pe­oria, Springfield, Joliet and Quincy,there is a ridiculous overcrowding.The people in the country districtsare especially careless of sanitation.The children must play in the aneysand streets. The schools are good ina way, but it must be rememberedthat they take care of only five hoursof the 24 of a child's day. In Peoriathere are tumble-down shanties' andhouseboats on the river. In Spring­field there are two very bad spots, in, ';miC£7most±Oi�'iiii: lDbi'iiiiiirts: K�:ii�-·groes.

They . arebrought :Up_ in an unhealthy, squalidenvironment which breeds intestinaldiseases andstunts the .growth, Thesmallness �f the child is then detri­mental to his educational advance­ment, for physical growth stunted re­sults in failure on the part of the-ehild . to grasp at education. Thesmaller children suffer physically andmentally., .Professor Tofts decried' the hap­'hazard building of American cities,on- account of which, they have beenthrown together on the village plan,with a house' wherever 'the owner ofthe land �islied and on whateverplan. In this connection- he praisedthe planning' of the·;Etiropeau. cities,wher�by legislation prohibits th'e erec­tion of certain buildings in 'certainparts of the cities."Philadelphi�, Baltimore and someother cities," he said, c'are equippedwith separate homes for the work­ingman, but in New York and Chica­go the poor people must iive in thedumbbell tenements under the worstconditions imaginable, Up to 1891 inNew \; ork cit):' the. dumbbe'n tenc­m��t was the rule. Enry availablespace was. filled with buildings fiveor six storie� high. Even under thenew law passed in 1901, 300,(0) ofthe rooms were ciassed as dark, Thismeans, that at least 300,000 personsare living or sleeping in the dark."Cbicqo Ahead of New York.Chicago, accQrding to Professorrufts,-is better than New York. evenin its most crowded quarter. This isdue in part to the fact that the nreordinance pro"ides a certai� construc­tion for houses onr three stories inheight. This has resulted in the con­struction of mostly three-story build�ings in the tenement- diS'tricts. 11 WOllER SIGJI- FOR TENNIS"Interat SbcNa,::,-in Toumameat �.

Anew system of conducting the 1ryoutswas introduced this year, A tentativecast was selected a few weeks ago,there being several, .men chosen foreaCh part: t"ompletc( piit�m�':­en to each candidate, who' learnedthem Thoroughly.

"It wasdifficult to render a decision, and inmany instances some very good ma­terial was necessarily thrown out,By introducing this system of com­petjtive rehearsals we were able tosee the men at their best, for theyhad been preparing themselves forthis final tryout, Tomorrow we willselect the general chorus and tenta­til'ely choose the several' chorusgroups needed in the special song ac­companiments."As a result of the fact that all thecandidates had learned their lines be­fore the rehearsal held yesterday, llr.Herbert can at once begin to coachthem upon action and expression. Inconducting the entire rehearsal yes­terday the book was referred to onlya few times. This shows how wellthe men have mastered their parts.The cast rehearses this evening at7:30 o'dock in the dub.Choose Chona Today.This afternoon at 3 o'clock the fin­al preliminary chorns rehearsal willbe held in the Reynolds dub.

This ul-timatum resultedfrom the fact that the field is toomushy to really play a game OD, andbecause the weather predictionsprophesy more rain and snow for to­day.Arrangements were not made toplay the game off at a later date andunless some time is set when Illinoiscomes up for a game next Wednes­day it may be called off altogether.This will leave only three games inthe Chicago-Illinois series.- Little Pnctice Held.Outdoor practice after a fashionwas indulged -iii -by th-e team yester­day for the first "time since last Thurs­day.

'The tradition prevailed for manyyears and is still current to some ex­tent that the college experience rep­resents a period of time during whichthe .s1udent is withdrawn from theworld and given an opportunity to.

An increasinglylarge number of young people go tocollege openly and avowedly for a so­called "good time." They and theirparents talk as if ·these years in col­lege from 18 to 25 were a respitegranted to a convict before enteringupon a team of penal .servitude, in­stead of years to be spent in trainingintellect and character, in learning 'toorder the daily life with a view to thegreatest enjoyment and usefulness.The college often charges the schools.and the homes with the responsibil­ity of furnishing to it studentsmarked with mental and moral flab­biness and with flippant purposes,rather than with capacity for sus­tined and' well-directed effort. Thecollege, however, is not doing its partto set matters right and remold thismaterial, which is still, to a con sid­erable extent, plastic. Faculty andfriends eagerly present the gay andthe social side of college life; sportsand pastimes rather than libraries andlaboratories are. often used ·to allure;.1', '�,": •• '1111 . the standard "good time" is frequent-·,·North PoleLunthCar Iy 'that of the inexperienced and un-.. ,:"r2tt;. i� � � for . . cultivated; college esteem is granted '.• Ladies aad Geadem on al.._:basis of social boisterousness, ..�1l!!i'�-�'.i ... -.an!l.,lllDrals. and manners are judged:tI'W� � c. .bY the measure of the phrase, "boys�aI"'" fO) .. ··�;·�GaiIiie:w· :-: :'.�l;· be�l>�Ys," and "girls will be� ·-",.OliJi'o.a·e..e.. ..

A youngwoman often would -take more pleas­ure in doing her college work than ingoing to a dance or a sorority meet­ing or taking part in a dramatic per­formance, just as a young man underthe pressure of public opinion cuts. the recitation or laboratory work inwhich he is really interested for afootball rally, or goes on a glee clubtrip, These activities are often as­sumed in the name of "college spir­it" or in an effort to be popular or totry to meet the standard for a "goodtime" which is recognized by collegesentiment.There is a hue and cry, 'too, thatAmerican colleges have too much so­cial life. A careful study of the actualsituation, however, shows that thetrouble lies in the fact that the social'life is not always of the right kind orproperly dis-tributed, rather than thatit is excessive. For everyone studentwho has an undue amount, there arcalways, several who do not haveenough social diversion or training.The group of students that make upthe "social set" is in most Americancolleges comparatively small. On theother hand. 'the number is lamentablylarge -of those who have been usedto participating actively in the socialaffairs of their home towns. and who. find themselves on entering collegealmost wholly without social oppor­tunities.

JIICboa BmL case, who are ignorant of the fact thatsuccessful social life means grvmgquite as much as taking, and whowithdraw into themselves and not in­frequently become a little cynical 'andquite unjust in their attitude towardtheir fellows,In other words, the college has al­lowed amusement in the form of dis-·.sipation to flourish. white amusementwhich might serve as recreation, andsocial agencies which could be em­ployed as a part of the educationalprocess, have been neglected.And yet, in sports, games and danc­ing, in play of all kinds, the acquisi­tion of skill and grace in the use ofthe body should go hand in hand withpleasure and recreation. The drama­tic sense, as some colleges have re­cently proved. may be trained andsatisfied by the use of really inter­esting dramatic material and the elim­ination of the grotesque and ,silly, atno cost to the sum of individual andcommunity pleasure. In such organ­ized activities, moreover, there is thepossibility of the .developrnent of a·truly moral power, of qualities essen­tial to good citizenship, of character­istics which the tife of a recluse failsto reveal and without which the in­dividual is nearly helpless as he con­fronts the actual situations of life. Asit is impossible to 'train the power tothink without giving concrete sub­jects to think upon, so it is futile toexpect young people to be capable ofsocial adjustments and to show moralpower in meeting social problems un­less their training has given them theopportunity to gain a sense of valuesand a power of expression and con-. trol in _- such_ matters; The - opportun- .'ity to acquire ability to say "yes" or"no" when- an issue 01' rigbt or' wrongpr-esents itself is constantly presentin the conduct of so-called "studentactivities," and the institution whichcontents itself with a policy of repres-. sion or board of control which actson the assumption that its chief func­tion is to forbid rather than to direct,adjust and develop, faits 10 use oneof the most important available edu­cational agencies.Nor is the problem a very difficultone. for if the intellectual life is ofthe right kind there will be no pos­sibility of temptation to an excess ofsocial; if it is sufficiently exactingthere will be little disposition to frit­ter away time on meaningless pas­times, An interesting illustration ofthis fact may be found in the effect ofmeasures recently adopted at one of,the large universities with a view tosecuring more and better intellectualwork from the students. An inter­esting development which shortly ap­peared was a falling off of $6 per dayfrom the use of billiard and pool ta­bles in the men's clubhouse.An aspect, too, of social trainingwhich it should not be beneath thedignity of any educational institution,even a college, to notice, is the formsand observances which make socialintercourse agreeable. There are inAmerican colleges large numbers ofstudents who have not had at homean opportunity to learn rhe socialforms and observances which prevailin large and complex groups, and yetwho realize this deficiency in socialtraining will be a serious handicap inlater Iife. Undoubtedly they oftengreatly overestimate the importanceof what are really not esserrtial fac­tors in the social structure. Just. how­ever, as the machine needs its· lubri­cant to do its best work. the memberof the social group who is familiarwith the amenities of life can do hiswork and exercise his influence withless friction than can he who ignoresthem.That this fact is appreciated by thestudents is not often· recognized by(Continued on Page 4,) The � Manufacturing Company98 Union Street.No. 421.

Twen­ty-seven replied in practically the-same words. "to be a good conversa­tionalist." and 21 expressed a desire"to have greater ease in meetingstrangers," while many others ex­prossed the same ideas in other phras.:es, such as "more ease of manner,"greater self-possession," "to over­come lack of ease and self-conscious­ness at social affairs,' "the ability.toreceive and entertain easily," "to be­come a better listener." "to feel athome in any situation."It would seem not unsuitable foran educational institution to provideopportunities to meet so conscious aneed.

The gap between faculty andstudent is apparently unbridgeable,but quite often the responsibility fora lack of social responsiveness restsnot wholly with 'the younger people.There should be. however. such an at­titude of friendliness on the part ofall members of the college, teachersand taught alike, that the establishingof social relations should be in manycases a source of real satisfaction andStarland . joy.
