Staggappeared. He mounted the bench andafter a few words of instruction tothe competitors and some delaycaused by a failure of the gun to fire,the race was declared on.Mr. Stagg requested that athletesbe excused from competition untilafter the team pictures have beentaken as he feared that the shadowscast on the men's faces would spoilthe artistic effect. He told in recol­lection that when he was a freshmanat Yale the freshmen were requiredto grow mustaches and that he hadsucceeded in raising a creditable one.Says Custom Is Good."I am glad," he said, "to see a cus­tom like this one take hold of thestudents. It is the kind of thing thatwe need ac Chicago. TIcfore I -carne :over here, I had placed in the Bart­lett library books that should aid youmen in your endeavors. One of theseis by "Herr" Kratzenberger and dealswith the nature of the hair follicle..Another is hy a learned author onnursing; the last is by Professor Muh­lenberg on the subject of irrigation.Mr. Stagg then ordered the mento take out their razors. Then heraised the pistol above his head. butit missed fire. He repeated the pro­cess three times and then discardedthe weapon, which he said was"Johnnie's" and took his own revolv­er. With the words, "Let 'em grow;'the gun popped. and the race was oft.'Men TeD of Prospects."The crop will undoubtedly beheavier this year than last," saidDusty Stapp yesterday. "Such heavy­weights as Baar, Hutton, and Simondare sure to bring up the general av­erage." When pressed as to his per­sonal charices for the prize, after somehesitation, he said, "As for myself,I'll try to do a better job on my up­per lip than I have done on myhead."Other seniors expressed similarsentiments, but many of the membersof that class declined to speak. Thecompetition is to be ended toward thelast of the quarter. At that time TheDaily Maroon award witt be given, to­gether with other prizes for the long­est hair and thickest -growth.Knott Attends Ball Game.�I r. Thomas A.

Miss Robinson, thefaculty sponsor of the clubs, expectedto be present at the mass-meeting toaddress a few words of welcome tothe prospective members of the clubs,but the necessity of changing thedate of the. mass-meeting from Mon­day to Thursday in order to avoidconflict with the joint chapel exer­cises on the former day, has broughtthe mass-meeting at a time whenMiss Robinson is out of the city.In accordance with the originalplan the four presidents of the Neigh­borhood clubs will attend. Each willbe introduced by Miss Jarvis, andgive an invitation to those womenfrom her section who may be presentto attend the first party of her clubsome time next week.The presidents are: Miss MargaretChaney of the Southeast club; MissMargaret Campbell of the Southwestclub; .Miss Dorothy Fox of theNorthwest club; and Miss ZillahShepherd of the Northeast club.THEFT IN MIDDLE DIVINITYStudent Has Twenty Dollars StolenFrom Room.The first theft in the Universityhalls during this quarter has occurredin �fiddle hall.

Inside of the coatwere twenty dollars. Realizing themethod of the thief, the students nowput in nails above the lower halvesof the windows, thus making it im­possible for anyone on the outside toopen the window more than aboutfour inches.At least one other attempt of rob­bery has been made, this time unsuc­cessful.

I t has been possible tostamp out thi .. vice which has a great,er hold on the user than alcohol andtoday there is practically no opiumused.Dr. Ander son dwelt particularly onthe social, and economic phases of thequestion, showing the need of medicalscience to deal with the plagues, theneed of military spirit to make Chinaaggressive. and the entire lack of suchwestern ideals as chivalry, altruism,and the dignity of labor.Many Deaths Due to Plagues."When the recent plague was in itsviolent stages two hundred peopledied every day and the Chinese gov­ernment took no measures to stampit out." said Dr. Anderson, "but whenthey feared that other nations wouldstep in they fought the plague withmedical science instead of with the oldChinese doctors and within a week thedisease was under control and in twoweeks it was eliminated."The Chinese lack the ideals of phys­ical strength, chivalry, and aggressiveknightlines s which make the progres­shoe nation of today, according to the. speaker. They are not frank andstraightforward but think little of ly­ing and deceit. China spends 3 percent of the national income for thearmy and navy, 2.7 per cent for agri­culture and commerce, but only 1.4per cent for education:Interest in Books."China is gradually losing her hos­tility .for American ideals mainlythrough the influence of foreignbooks translated into the Chinese lan,guage," said Dr. Anderson. TheAmerican Bible society sells 1,000,000Bibles annually to the natives. Theworks that are influencing the peo­ple most at present are those of Dar­win, Huxley, Tyler, Spenser, Smith,Rousseau, :\£ilI, and Jenks.Among the many reforms that arein vogue there now are anti-foot­binding societies, anti-cigarette clubs,anti-polygamy groups, and those whostand for ,the abolition of idols. Stillothers desire to introduce foreignclothing, and stand for the educationof women. The students led the fadfor cutting the queues recently, but, the government had to check the pop­ular notion for fear of a riot.Introducing Western Methods.China is rapidly introducing mod­ern western methods for manufactur­ing purposes. Well equipped arsen­als, sugar refineries, steel and ironworks, and woolen miIls have beenintroduced, which are for the mostpart run under American, German, orEnglish direction. The Han Yangsteel mills, established in 1880 by aYale graduate, are a typical i11ustra­tion. The output of these furnacesis 250 tons of steel a day. Ordersfor thirty years and for fifteen yearshave been received by the steel com­panies in Japan, and in San Francis­co for 100.000 and 36,000 tons annu­ally.This firm is welt located for waterand rail facilities, being 250 milesfrom the enormous coal supplies andeight miles from the huge valuablesupplies of iron ore. Skilled labor is$1.25 a ,day, the lowest being sixcents a day and the average 25 cents.Thus it is not profitable to intro­duce labor saving machinery as yet.From 60 per cent to 65 per cent of TYPEWRITERSOF ALL MAKESFor Rent, Sale and ExchangeIt Is no longer neeessa17 to pay an:r­wbere near $100.00 for a standard t:rpe­writer of an:r make.
