QUARTET WILL PLAYTHREE NUMBERS ATCONCERT TUESDAYSelections From Shubert, Franck, and Beethoven Are onProgram.LECTURE-RECITAL l\IONDAYOnly Stage Seats Are Left-Musi­cians Have Instrumentsof Great Value.Selections from Shubert, Franckand Beethoven will constitute theprogram to be offered Tuesday after­noon at 4 :15 in Mandel by the Flon­zaley quartet. Musical Director Ste­vens will give his lecture-recital onthe program Monday at 4 in Mandel.Only stage seats are leit for the con­cert Tuesday, according to the state­ment made.yesterday by the Univer­sity Orchestral association.Shubert's quartet in A minor islargely a work of sensuous beautyand of dreams, the first two move­ments reflecting the rural quietudeand intimacy with nature induced bythe composer's stay at the little Hun­garian country town of Zelecs, whereit was written. The song-melody ofthe andante is the one used by Shu­bert in his ·"Rosamunde" and in hispiano impromptu opus 124. The con­cluding rondo employs the vivaciousthemes of the Hungarian folk-song..'-, Cesar �k's quartet .., �';':b_beencalled one-of the most beautiful worksin the entire literature of cham�rmusic. It was written in his late'creative period and was performed forthe first time April 19,'1890, in Paris.The Larghetto movement is notablefor 'its exquisitely enunciated prayer­like motive. The scherzo suggests' adance of sylphs in a moonless land­scape.Show Influence of l\lozart.The string- quartet included inBeethoven's opus 18 arc among themost beautifu] works of his first pe­riod. They show strongly the influ­ence of Mozart: -The A major quar­tet is remarkable for its fine themewith variations. These quartets ofBethoven, notwithstanding their Mo­zartean flavor, caused Albrechtsberg­cr to caution his other harmony pu­pils against the master. They ap­peared to him 'radical and not sub­sersive to :my· of the rules of compo-sition. -The Flonzaleys were organized ori­ginally by Mr. E. J. de Coppct, awealthy New York music, patron.They were to play before him andhis friends at his villa on Lake Gen­eva, Switzerland. The soirees givenat this residence, "Flonzaley," forwhich the quartet derived its name,became widely famed, and the play­ing of the new quartet attracted gen­eral attention.Instruments of Great Value.The quartet was brought to Amer-'ica a few years later for additionalprivate perfonnances, but the demandfor appearances became so insistentthat a limited number of public con­certs were arranged. In a very fewseasons it had outstripped its olderrivals and its playing is now beingaccepted everywhere as the standardof artistic excellence. The instru­ments used by the organizations area Stradivarius. two Guadagninis anda Testori, all of great.' value.The quartet is composed of a Swiss,two Italians and a Frenchman.

Blackstone 2591.SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1916.A STAR.To the felicitations extended by our_reviewer of the Faculty number, weourselves would add a congratulatoryword in re the current issue of TheLiterary Monthly. It is a star towhich present and future editors ofthc Lit. may well hitch their wagon.In yesterday's criticism, due appreci­ation was expressed relative to theleading contributions; it was hintedthat the versatile George Fitch'sshoes might not much longer weepfor a pair of adequate feet; and theother refreshing articles, bothweighty and light,. were accordedmerited recognition of worth.To but one comment of our es­teemed critic are we . compelled totake exception. And this is the de­preciation of "New College Life forOld," which we were informed leftour reviewer in a state of Antarcticfrigidity. To us, this expositionbrought a warm appeal; and thoughwe grant that its subject matter hasmellowed with the seasons, we be­lieve that the topic treated is onewhich cannot be rescuscitated too fre­quently. Education is a problemwhich was moss-covesed when dilatedupon by Plato. To ·place J. R. H.side by side with ,tilt'" w. k. philoso­pher is by no mann;r of ineans damn­ing him with faint praise. "New Col­lege Life For Old" is a vital discus­sion of an equally vital subject. It isa fact which bears repitition that theUniversity finds its treasures, not inthe artificiality of the small collegeof the best seller nor in the p�udo­romantic atmosphere of the campusmade familiar through the "moyie",but in the individuality of its concep­tions, in the metropolitanisrn of Chi­cago and in the cosmopolitanism ofAmerica. The endless resources ofthe educational institution in thegreat city, the vast opportunitiesavailable to the students in the fieldsof art, literature and science cannotbe too strongly emphasized or toovividly pictured. Herein lies thestrength of the University of Chicago.And Dr. Hulbert has presented thetrue situation in a comprehensiveand stimulating fashion.AT ODDS WITH THE PtJRPOSEFew and far between arc the oc­casions on which students and racultymembers are thrown together on acommon footing. Sporadic attemptsare made to stimulate the relation­ship between the two orders; instruc­tors are exhorted to rub elbows withthe undertrraduates by dining at theCommons; and we have periodic re­ceptions in the Reynolds club andHutchinson hall. But the one eventof the academic year which aims pri­marily to assemble members of thetwo bodies in a congenial, democratic manner is the faculty dinner. Thisaffair may be said to be the onlyconcentrated effort at the Universitytoward eradicating the faculty-stu­dent bariers. The contemplated ar­rangement of seating at the dinner,to be held !'lareh 3, provides for theseparate grouping of members of thesame department. . Obviously, whenthe professed object of the dinner isto open fresh fields of friendship toinstructor and student, such a plan isin direct oppcstion to the spirit ofthe occasion. To place the undergrad­uate in contact with those whom hehas learnt to know through his rou­tine curriculum is defeating the endof the Faculty dinner. To mar thesuccess of the annual gathering insuch fashion would be a keen disap­pointment to those interested in thefostering of student-faculty fellow­ship.ATHLETICS BREVITIES.Baseball and track drew most ofthose members of the Princeton foot­ball team of 1915 who are candidatesfor a second major sport. Each dreweight.It seems to be a difficult proposi­tion definitely settling the case of thefive Yale athletes who were debarredlast fall. In justice to the players,the teams and the undergraduaten,a final ruling should be given in thevery near future, one from - which. there will be no appeal. 'Sentimentis almost unanimous that they bereinstated.Reports from the UniVt'T!f�y ofPennsylvania regarding rowing prac­tice indicate strongly that CoachWright is going to be a veTI popularand efficient instructor. If numbersand enthusiasm and hard work are tobe big factors in deciding next year'sPoughkeepsie race, the red and bluewill not finish in last place.It is said that the University ofBuffalo may try to get F. A. Hinkey,head coach at Yale during the pasttwo years, as head coach for nextyear.Wyman is one of the best all aroundathletes who ever entered the Uni­versity of Minnesota. He has been amember. of the football team, is nowplaying on the basketball team, andis qualified to win his letter in trackand baseball. As baseball bas beenabolished at Minnesota as an intercol­legiate sport, he will not be able toget a letter in that sport this year.A feature of the Boston Athleticclub games will be a relay betweenColby, Maine, Bowdoin and Bates, thefour Maine colleges. The state col­lege of Maine appears to be the fav­orite this year since four out of thcsix men who composed the team lastyear will run again.Former Williams College basket­ball players in New York have or­ganized a team under the name ofthe. Williams club and they plan toplay games with the various collegeand club teams.19 CANDIDATES FORCOUNCIL NOMINATEDAT CLASS MEETINGS(Cont inncd from Pagc 1)Buell Patterson,James Sellers,Francis Townley.Sophomores-Carleton Adams,Walter Earle,Paul Gerdes,Miriam Libby,Agnes Murray,John Nuveen.Freshmen-Margaret Allen,Van Meter Ames,Walter Bowers,Clarence Brown,Esther Carr,Helen Driver,Gertrude Makowski. CLAIMS REVOLUTION INRUSSIA IS IMPOSSIBLEArticle by Assistant Prof. HarperCites Patriotism as ProhibitoryFaetor-Reverses From GermanForces Strengthens. Enthusiasm.Revolution ill Russia is almost im­possible because of the strong patri­otism of the people of the country,as seen by Samuel N. Harper, assist­ant professor in Russian Languagesand Literature, who has an article inHarper's Weekly for February 5. Mr.Harper states in his discussion ofconditions that the general instinct isthis: "Of course Germany would liketo have a revolution break out in Rus­sia. But she will not see it, just asshe will not get peace from us."Nothing is more untrue, says Mr.Harper, than the reports of discon­tent in Russia which have been pub­lished recently in America and therumors that Russia was on the vergeof revolution. The country was moreunited because of the economic mo­bilization while he was in Russia andconditions among the peasants weremuch more prosperous than beforethe conflict.A general strike movementthroughout the country just beforethe war was called off immediatelywhen the troops were mobilizedagainst Germany. An appeal procla­mation was circulated later, signed bymany of Russia's recognized leadersof the Socialist party, many of whomeven then were exiled in Paris.Reaches Workingmen.The proclamation opened with tnestatement that "Any. agitation in therear of the army while it is fightingwill amount to treason, as it will beof service to a foreign enemy." Inending it said: "The situation issuch that we cannot attain freedomexcept by the road of a national de­fense." This appeal reached theworkingmen by being spread nroao­cast throughout the country, even theopposition leaders approving of it ..Reverses from the German forceslast September brought patriotic en­thusiasm to its highest pitch, and byan action of the Duma the resourcesof the nation were mobilized, for thepeople realized that the retreat wasdue to lack of ammunitions and sup­plies for the army. Even the disso­lution of the Duma did not stop theworkers, although some were discour­aged for the time. Russians, how­ever, have realized that while mis­takes are being made by the govern­ment t hat they will not be distractedfrom the immediate task. They say,"We are fighting Germany first ofall."COMMITTEE SENDS 300TICKETS WITH LETTERSFinance Body for Washington Prom­enade Begin Campaign for Cash­Assign Decorations Today.Three hundred letters containingtickets have been sent out to studentsand alumni by the Pinance committeeof the Washington Promenade.

Milton Coulter playedseveral selections on the guitar, Good­ell Crawford offered piano numbersand George Martin gave a sleight-of­hand performance, "What are the new discoveries inOle Botanical department," said aMaroon reporter yesterday, as hewandered into the office of Prof.Chamberlain and sat down in thosoftest chair. "Have you made anystartling new experiments, or foundany wonders of plant life, heretoforeunsuspected ?""We arc doing nothing new," re­plied Prof. Chamberlain, "as our won­ders are daily and our marvels ap­pear commonplace to us. For in­stance, there is the microtome, thepetrotome and the photomicrograph.""What are they?" asked the re-.porter, falling into the. vernacular.Demonstrations by Prof. Chamber­lain and Prof. Land followed, the mi­crotome being the first on the list.This instrument, kept at an eventemperature, will cut the pollen grainof a lily into over fifty sections with­out displacing one or breaking it inany way. The pollen grain of a lilyis .the smallest object visible to thenaked eye, and only an exceptionallygood eye, if the grain is on a flatblack surface and well illuminated.The machine is of American makeand very simple considering its pos­sibilities. A razor blade and slidingholder for the article to be sliced,with a motor to run it, are the promi­nent features, making the instrumentnothing more than a highly special­ized meat slicer. The original wasmade to tum by hand, but Prof. Landdevised a system of motor controlwhich has proved to be faster andmuch more efficient than the cranksystem. The limit of the machine isone twenty-five thousandth ot aninch.The articles to be sliced must beput through a complicated process be­,!ore. .being .placed in Ole. microtome.They are soaked in water and thenin alcohol, the solution of which isincreased gradually from two per centto pure alcohol. Following this baththe specimen is treated with a pro­cess which leaves it thoroughly im­pregnated with parafin. Sections ofthe parafin are then cut to fit the mi­crotome and the slices cut adhere ina long ribbon.These ribbons are inserted in slidesand stained for microscopic work.The slides. are arranged in sectionsand make complete volumes of plantlife in chapter and volumes. TheBotany "library" owns thousands ofthese, according to Prof. Chamber­lain."The remarkable thing' about this,"said Prof. Chamberlain, as he finish­ed his demonstration of the micro­tome, "is the fact that we can makea pollen grain twenty feet long.

COLLEGE SHOULD TRAINMEN AS SUBALTERNSCollege men will be trained as sub­alterns; if Major-General John F.O'Ryan, commandant of the NationalGuard of New York, has his way. Mr.O'Ryan, in answer to a request fromThe Daily Princeton ian, designatedcompulsory military lectures as thechief foundation for this qualification."It is difficult for me to express myl,OPinion as to whether the condition atPrinceton warrants the organizationof a student regiment," wrote GeneralO'Ryan. "The militia regimentsshould maintain their personnel ofsuch character of men that as manyclasses and trades in the communityare represented therein as practie­able, so that organizations may notbe seriously affected in the event ofwar by conditions which might ad­versely affect the availability of alarge number of its personnel in oneclass or trade.Add Field Training."It would seem to me, offhand, thatbetter results would be obtained ifthe military work of college men wasof such character as to best developthem to qualify as subaltern officers.The foundation for this qualificationcan be laid by requiring attendance atlectures on military law, organization,sanitation and tactics. supplementedby periods of field training in thesummer and by daily physical train­ing throughout the year."So far as this spmmer training isconcerned, it seems to me that thePlattaburg camp will meet the re­quirement.s admirably. The collegestudents maintain their interest inthe theoretical military work at thecollege, and in the practical work inthe field wiII have opportunity aftergraduation to join National Guard or­ganizations, and they should be equip­.ped for early qualifications profes­sionally as officers in such organisa-ficns; -Congress Has. Power."Congress has the power to makeof the militia of the United Statesan effective and homogeneous army,and it is believed that this will bedone. Under its constitutional pow­ers to organize the militia, Congresshas the power without any act by theStates to prescribe the qualificationsfor officers of the militia in everygrade. The power of the governorsto appoint the offic�"i"S will becomethen in fact merely the power to nom­inate.4 The shortcomings of the militiasystem can be traced to the fact thatCongress has not up to the present1 ime exercised its powers-not thatCongress does not possess the power.With a uniform standard qualificationfor officers throughout the militia ofthe United States, the Federal gov­ernment wiII be enabled to harmonizethe military educational work in col­leges with the military system in 'suchmanner that especially qualified stu­dents throughout the country will be­come available as oxicers of the mili- "Glimpse" Our New WoolensTHEY'RE pleasingly different fromthe commonplace- and you'll havethe- fun of knowing the pattern of yourchoice is practically confined to you. forwe carry but one length of each.Prices Range from$35�Foster & OdwardTailor. lor YOUIII' Men_Seventh Floor Republic Building, State and AdamsT elepbone Harri.on 821"6Bel- tia."FENN TO PREACH TOl\IORROWHarvard Divinity School Head to Ap­pear in Mandel.Dr. William Fenn, head of the Har­vard Divinity school, will preach atthe University religious services to­morrow at 11 in Mandel.
