Dr.Leach discussed the harmful ingredients in most of the proprietary medicines now on the market and the immense profit often made by the manufacturers."Ace�nilid is a harmful part of thebromo seltzer compound," said Dr.Leach, "and its effects are similar toopium and phenacetin, which also areused in patent medicines. Only aweak character would need the habitual bracer offered by these nosrtumsanyway.

But The Survey goesa 'step further. It emphasizes thegrowing' importance of a free treatment of the social sciences and thenpresents what it considers to be thereal danger of academic freedom."Freedom of thought and of speechin the social sciences," reads. the editorial, f'is important just now because they are concerned with problems which are becoming more andmore acute, with problems in whichpersonal interests conflict, wi� problems which are increasingly beforelegislatures, courts and political conventions, with problems which arealive with news, electric with currents flashing to and 'fro in the heavens, with problems of vital concern tohuman beings at the very poi�tswhere their interests have Dot beenreconciled. *' * Without Iaboring'the point, it is evident that thesesubjects involve personal and class interests. Therefore, the thought1�may say leave them alone. On theco�trary all who � capable of thinking at all must say: Leave alone thefreest possible inquiry into thesetmngs.'!'rhe Survey then presents what itconsiders to be the real danger tofreedom of thought and of speech inthese matters. External influences,often charged with responsibility forthe, lack of freedom in some institutions, are not considered the maindangers."The real danger to ac:ademic freedom is within the university itself.Academic free40m means growth, andthe obstacles to growth lie alwaysnearest that which is growing andchanging. Not trusteeS; but the president; not the president, but the dean;not the dean, but the head of the depa�ment; not the head of the department, but the senior colleague;not the senior colleague, but the teacher's own thoughts of yesterdayfurnish the obstacles to growth.* • * In the present state of publicopinion, the university which fostersfreedom will have little need to fear. theological, political or commercialinterference."And we would add that one of themost efficacious methods by whichfreedom can be brought down to thelowest rung in the ladder, the classroom, is used in such courses asTrade Unionism �d Commercial andIndustrial Organization at the University. Only straightforward scien-I.. : tific methods are resorted to. Thestudent is not presented with a tang edand contradictory mass of asSignedreading from' which he is expectedto gain all his knowledge of the subject. He is not confronted with theprejudiced views of an instructorwhose insight into the subject matterof the course has been gained onlyfrom theoretical material. He is notthrown upon the horns of a dilemma,with the prospect of accepting either these biased pedagogical views ornone at all.But rather he is forced to delveinto the field himself. He must go outand meet the people and eondltionscharacteristic of that particular field.If it be Trade Unionism, he attendsunion meetings, investigates strikes,i nterviews labor lenders and employers and attends lectures by them. Heis guided in his efforts by his instructor; but is expected to draw up hisown estimate of and conclusions onthe subject.Such matters may seem to .. beyond the pale in a discussion 8JJacademic freedom. But "the obstacles togrowth lie always nearest that whichis growing and changing." If a bodyof traditions can be built up fostering and demanding the general useof the above methods, some reactionmust be felt by those influences moreremote. GYMNASTS .WlLL MEET.ILLINI FEBRUARY 26All Members or Squad Are NowEligible-Wisconsin Is Fa'YoriteFor Title.Maroon gymnasts will open theirConference season Saturday night,February 26, when they meet the .11-Iinios squad here.

Atpresent all members of the squad areeligible and with the exception of aslight illness which has handicappedCaptain Davis the team is in firstclass condition.The addition of Lindemann, whowas ineligible last quarter has greatly strengthened the team in all theevents. Lindemann is probably thebest all around man in the Conference,and together. with Veazey, willmakethe team one of the best balancedaggregations in the Big Nine. Hibbard has been improving steadily withhis tumbling and should be able toadd points in this event along withDavis, Veazey and Lindemann. Gernon still has the count on everyonein the club swinging event and thisshould be Chicago's in every meet.Coach Hoffer has a strong lineup inboth the horizontal bar and parallelbar events. Hibbard, Lindemann,Smith and Veazey are working on theparallels. Hibbard, Loser, Smith, Dyer, Davis, Lindemann and Veazeymake up the horizontal bar squad.Smith, Lindemann and Davis are alldoing excellent work on the rings.Dyer is showing the best of his careerin his work on the side horse andshould be a strong contender for theConference honors in this event.Gernon, Huls and Smith are the othermembers of this squad.Japanese Is Star.Illinois is reported as having a mod. erately strong team with a large number of individual stars. Horimura,the Japanese, is easily one .of the best. horizontal bar men in the Conferenceand will give the Maroons a hard fightfor first.

"Ruggles of Red Gap," from theSaturday Evening Post stories by Harry Leon Wilson, by Harrison Rhodes.Staged by Benrimo at. the Chicagotheater.By Howard l'lumford Jones.That amazing serial by Harry LeonWilson which is not a novel but acomedy of manners-bad manners.has been made into a play which isnot a play but a musical comedywithout any music. Either it is thator in some nightmare a dictionary ofslang has come to life and stalked intothe Chicago theater. That uniquething in three acts I saw there is certainly not a farce, for a farce has aplot; it is not a comedy, for a comedy has a heroine; it is not a novel, because I saw and heard it. It mustbe a musical comedy.I am confirmed in this opinion bythe amazing bad taste in which theydress the ushers at the Chicago theater':_the function of ushers (be itobserved parentheticatty) is to lookpretty and no woman can look prettyin a pair of leather boots and a cardinal-colored military suit. Furthermore, the audience, especially the women, began joyously to reach for theirwraps about five minutes before thefinal �rtain-just as at NobodyHome. Their instinct is right. Anaudience's instinct is always right.Ruggles of Red Gap is a musical comedy.It can not be said that anythingespecial happens during these extraordinary acts-but then, nothing everhappens in the Follies. Ruggles, thatparagon of valets, gets lost in a poker game (poker games are the thingthis season), goe� to America andopens a restaurant in Red qap. Beyond this, you have my solemn oaththat nothing happens,- at least, asthings happen in plays. Wild and impossible as it may seem, that is allthere is to Ruggles ot Red Gap. Andnevertheless it is an entertaining, andat times an excruciatingly funnymusical comedy.The point of this production is, Itake it, that a place where a raDwaytrain stops is in England called a station, and in America, a depot-pronouneed deepot. Over this simple linguistic . faet and its brethren an audience chortles with glee at the Chicago Theater. And rightly. It isfUnny that in England a depot is astation; that an "old sport" is a. \.1.1 "bit of a bliter;" that when peoplemean "I guess," they say "I fancy"or "Oh rather." It is also a fact, Ipresume, that the English aristocraticservant is much more aristocraticthan his noble master, and that theAmerican demccrat=-In Red Gap--ismore of an aristocrat' than either.Around these simple joys the fun ofRed Gap gathers.It is possible that in, some wild andremote region of America---certainly-not in that blase and cultured state,Washington-Mrs. Floud and Cousin'Egbert and Mrs. Pettingill and J eft'Tuttle stilt exist. I have even seenwhat-nots in the country. It is alsopossible that in some equally wildand remote region of England-possibly Paris=-there still live the Hon- .orable George and the Earl of Brinstead-and Ruggles. I do not know.I do not care. As seen at the Chicago these people are much moreamusing than the aetual inhabitantsof Washington or London; they havebecome citizens of that nebulous country where.Colonel Setters lives-acrossthe street, doubtless, from Lord Dundreary. Upon our mutual misapprehension of their real selves they doubtless laugh a good deal.' So does theaudience.Mr. Ralph Herz's Ruggles is all thatit should-impeccable, but genial. Hedoes not disapprove as a butler might;he is shocked, as valets are shocked.He is not to be confused, for instance,with the respectable Littimer of Copperf.eldian fame. At times he rela·t.es-in the company of his equals,never in the company of his inferiors,like Mrs. Belknap-Jackson. As hehimself observes, even valets must eat.Those he likes he lifts up with him.Honorable George (George Hassell),and Mrs. Floud (Louise Hale) andJeff Tuttle (Mark Twain would have1ike�.l eft' Tuttle as Fred Strong doeshim) and one or two others. Unfortunately most of the rest of the casteremain in the Chicago Theater--esp�ly that' ennre�y ulqieeesSary person, lire. Judson. Nevertheless theambrosial Ruggles and a select confrere of .convivial-spirits are guaranteed· to aid the most sluggish liver toits function,-and the rest of the playcan go hang as far as the liver isconcerned. For the success of theventure is assured-do not two millionsubscn"bers . read the Saturday Evening Post!PICKS FIVE· SPEAKERS.IN PRELIMINARY OFEXTEMPoRE 'CONTEST�e woman and four men wereauceesaful in the preliminaries of theUpper Junior contest in extemporaneous speaking held yesterday afternoon in Kent theater.· Eleven een-:testants participated.
