We wouldhave little of the present nati'onal an­tagonisms. The pettY insinuation&made by history writers of one nationagainst another are responsible for agreat deal of present day jingoism.Much of the antagonism of Englandby Americans, is due to the mannerin which American histo:'y is taughtto the children. .,"Mothers have, perhaps, the mostfar-reaching effect on the livestheir sons and so it is to women wewnt have to turn, when this great waris over.

Therewas never a time when anyone feltthat the Chicago team was not put­ting the best that it had into a con­test, combined with "the ten percent more."We congratulate Captain Jacksonfor his valiant eff�rts in leading histeam through such a difficult season,and trust that he realizes the greatadmiration which the students. havefor his work. And we wish Captain­elect Pershing a most successfulyear when he leads another' Marooneleven on the gridiron next year.COMMUNICATIONS(In new of the fact that the com­munication column of the Daily Ma­roon is maintained as a clearing housefor student and faculty opinion.

It was a fine example of theChicaco spirit. Undaunted by the dis­mal taste of the score, Mr. DunlapClark's volunteer collectors, one hun;dred and forty strong, attacked theeast, west and south stands the mo­mcnt the first half ended, and hadbarely time to cover their assignedsections and bring back the contentsof their coffee :ruts to :\Ir. Dinsmore'scapacious sack, before the second halfbegan. The cooperation of the womenof the University, under the leader­ship of Miss Helen Adams, addedmuch to the interest and success ofthe collection. The Three Quarters Club met the invitation (If the Com;mittee to cooperate in a body and t.akeone whole stand, in the most gratify­ing way. The Committee especiallyappreciates the club's willingness togive up its annual burlesque and jointhe ranks of collectors. Including theclub, one hundred and seventy stu­dents volunteered for this service andstill others offered their servic-es atthe game, but could not be used, asthe places were all fiiled. Quite asidefrom the financial success of the col­lection, the social cooperation which itmet with in every part of the Uni-versity marked it as [a pronouncedsuccess even before the money was'counted.President Judson and President'Vincent very helpfully gave the un­dertaking the weight and influence oftheir names in a signed letter on theFootball program. Mr. Stagg and Mr.Merriam gave us space on the pro­gram and every facility on the field.Mr. Blanchard and the band at the re­quest of the committee devoted theintermission to a series of patrioticairs, and Chief Healy contributed anofficer to convoy Mr. Dinsmore andthe treasure to a place of safety .Six men worked for two hours afterthe game counting the money, ofwhich there was somewhat less thana bushel. It included one $50 bill,two twenties, th ree tens, seven fives,six twos, 133 ones and six silver dol­lars. There '�re 352 half-dollars,1903 quarters, 2593 dimes, 2395 nickelsand 913 pennies. In all, 8315 piecesof money were received, which makesit probable that over seven thousandpersons contributed. While the exacttotal hinges upon which [can berealized on. three quarters of a paperdollar, the Committee is safe in an.nouncing the amount as $1339.93.This is almost exactly equal to theamount previously raised in the Uni­versity for the Prisoners of War Fund,and raises t�.e present total to about.$2700.

Goodspeed.Interest In The Forum.To the Editor:Is the average college student seri­ous minded in his work or does he goto college simply for the hypothecatedvalue he imagines the college degreewill be worth per se? There is littledoubt that the latter view can be sus­tained without much effort. Why Iam led to the things I am about todiscuss is because of the lack of co­operation that is shown by the stu­dents both in the University' of Chi­cago and other large universities andcolleges throughout the United States,with such organizations as the. For­um.What is the function of the Forum?As -l... see it, it is to put before thearena social, political and economicsubjects of the day for the purposesof acquainting the students with themagnitude of the problem so as toenable them to be intelligently con­versant with things of vital concern.to them and to society at large. Itis corning to be more and more a gen­eral feeling, and rightly so, that thecollege student is to be the leader ofthe community. He is the one who istrnined in the theoretical aspect s ofour problems today and as far as pos­s ible in the practical side. But it istoo well known that Iittlc practicalk-nowledge can be had in the classroom as much as the instructors wouldlike to so do. This is just where theForum fits in. The Forum has alwayshad subjects of the minute. It hasalways had the best speakers on thesubjects which it discussed and thesespeakers have satisfied the audience,hut the students have -nevcr got up on A Kankakeean Idiom.From a dissertation on Ophelia,"She was gentle and charminglycrazy."-E.

It seems to methat there can be no question that thefunction of the Forum is a proper one.In view of the lack of interestshown in so vital1y important an or­ganization as the Forum which con­cerns itself so much with the futurework of the college student, it is un­equivocally true that the average col­lege student fails to realize whathis future should be and is nec. with­out serious mindedness as to whatcorroborative organizations, like theForum, mean to him.Archie Schimberg.

Notethe distinctive VENUS water mark As a result of the protest madeagainst the new laundry regulationswhich went into effect Monday, the fol ..lowing letter has been written to theheads of the dormitories for men byMr. John F. Moulds, cashier of theUniversity."The laundry plan was designed toserve the following purposes:"1. To reduce to a minimum thenumber of laundry tradesmen callingat the University dormitories, both fol'collection and return of laundry, aswell as for solicitation of business and.collection of accounts. The theftsof University property and of theproperty of students make it impera­tive that every effort be taken to con­trol the number of outsiders havingarress to the halls."2. The conditions under which thelaundry work of the students is donehave heretofore not been supervisedwith a view to cleanliness and generalsanitary arrangements. It is possiblenow to secure. such conditions and fre­quent inspection to guarantee the con­tinuance of such conditions. This, \would have been practically impossibleunder a plan whereby individual stu­dents make their own independentarrangements. The University, hasby contract with the laundry com­pany selected, arranged so that thecompany has guaranteed to furnishlaundry whieh shall have been handledunder the most approved sanitary con­ditions.4'3. The janitors heretofore havereceived a certain percentage fromthe laundry company and have on their·own responsibility and the Univer­sity's time arranged for collection anddistribution of laundry as well as forcollection of accounts and have beenrequired, in varying degrees, to actas bankers for certain students in thematter of laundry accounts. The newplan provides, under definite contractbetween the University and the lann­dry company that a definite percent­age.....on the entire amount of laundrybusiness developed in each ball shallbe received and the University under­takes to distribute to the j!lnitors inthe proportion that the laundry devel­oped from each hall bears to .the to�tal amount of laundry in all the halls,a premium or commission payment tosuch janitor. Heretofore the jani­tor has probably earned his commis­sion several times in the handling ofthis business, in the solicitation of'payments and the like. The proposedplan definitizes and standardizes theentire proceeding with the minimum ofbusiness developing out of which hewill receive the greater' part of theres.ulting commission. The Univer­sity makes no profit on the arrange­ment and provides machinery forchecking and administering the planat cost.
