Local 162Business office ...•.................. Ellis 14Telepbone Blackstone 2591___ 2.7WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1916.Popular misconception of the col­lege student is notorious. Equallyunhappy is the idea that universitymen and women are theoretical tothe entire exclusion of practical ca­pacity. The Dartmouth epitomizesthe situation and adequately pre.sentsa justificablc refutation of current er­roneous beliefs regarding the stu­dents lack of seriousness."Every once in so often some per­son stands sponsor for the .statementthat the college student does not take_himself seriously enough. And eager­to seize on any suitable item in theway of news matter, newspapers andmagazines give credence to the state­ment. As an inevita:ble result an un­fortunate and all too popular con­ception of the college youth pictureshim wearing a costume made up ofsport shirts, banners and posters, andregarding- everything in a superficiallight. All of which does not help the-college student materially."The accusation is often levied thatthe undergraduate does not give suf­ficient thought to. his life career, cit­ing, in lieu of proof, the fact thatmany men by the time they reachtheir senior year have yet to decideupon what field of endeavor they willenter upon graduation. But the merefact that the decision has not yetbeen made is in no way ground forthe assertion that the problem hasnot been given due consideration."It is surprising to see who someof these traducers of the college stu­dent are. Not so long ago the deanof a large western university brokeinto print expressing the belief thatthe average undergraduate was irre­-sponsible, that his thoughts were ofthe shallowest, and that proper at­tention was not given to his studies.Considerable of an indictment, butfortunately not entirely true. Suchan utterance bears much the semb­lance of a stab in the back, but evenmore recalls the childhood "sticksand stones may break my bones, butwords will never hurt, me.""The idea that the college man isan irresponsible youth is older thanthe dean who most recently gavevoice to it. But it is only an idea andnot a fact. The college man maynot always conduct himself acordingto the customs of his Puritan an­ccstors, And for that he is to becongratulated. But a glance at theaffairs that are being ably managedby undergraduates-athletic mana­gershilps busines. managerships ofperiodicals and what not, disprovesthe statement on the face of it."It is doubtful if the dean in ques­tion ever cultivat,d closely the so­ciety of the average .student. Elsehe would have been disillusioned re­garding his belief th.at the undergrad­uate's thoughts "were of the shallow-, -e ,,.-;r!'r'. est." A visit to anyone of the many"reform the world" leagues' wouldhave convinced him that every con­ceivable subject is tliscussed and re­discussed by co lege men. On thesurface may be a carefree expression,but underneath there's usually quite abit of real stuff."Anent the undergraduate's attitudetowards his studies. It is not longago that "Studies are the only thingin college to be considered at allwor thy of attention" was heard onevery side. But in the words of thepopular song "Things are very dif­ferent nowadays." The curriculum isimportant-no one for an instant dis­putes that-but it is far from beingall important. here are a few activi­ties outside the class-room that meritsome small attention."Docs t hc college student takehimself seriously enough? If thereference may be pardoned, the criticmight look into the office of any col­lege newspaper and .see the "heelers"working as though their very livesdepended on it. Or he might glanceinto the auditorium or dramatic as­sociation office and see the assistantmanagerial candidates doing work forwhich the average workman wouldask good wages. Elections constituteanother example. Class politics is ad­mittedly a petty matter but not asthe student regards it. No, every ef­fort must be made, anything sacri­ficed to obtain the end in view. Thecollege student doesn't take himselfseriously enough? Too often the reoverse is seemingly true, and the un­dergraduates apparently staggerthrough college with the weigh of theuni verse on their shoulders." men; to introduce him to the newerconcepts of obligation to .his nationand to humanity, Your supreme •function is that �f building the char­acter and moulding the ideals of thestudent. I t is within your power tomake of him a useful force for so­ciety. Whether in the role of a mere.citizen or as a leader of society hewill act enlightenedly and inspira­tionally, with wisdom and sympathy,with a broad understanding of the�pirit of the time. His action willreflect credit upon his Alma Mater.Unfortunately the average studentis either so much preoccupied withhis specific course of .study or is solittle impressed by the vital import­ance of the question.s of the day thatwhen he emerges from the schoolinto the arena of life he is nearly aslittle prepared to grapple with theissues of political and s�ial develop­ment as anyone who has never hadthe opportunity of a higher education.The young graduate under the stressof our highly competitive order, de­votes himself entirely to his specialty,and, unable' to give the necessaryamount of time to the study of na­tional problems, he is soon swal­lowed up by the stream of traditionalthought permeating his environment.The result is tha! in his politicalactivities he soon affiliate.s himselfwith the party that happens to domi­nate his environment. He blindlyfollows the mass, or the class tJwhich his profession attaches him.His independent habit of thinkingacquired through a scientific educationis operative only within the sphere oihis specialty, but not outside of it.He is fashioned into a tool of themass, a tool of his class, He is lostto progress.But how can real progress be ad­vanced in a democracy unless the ed­ucated elements take up the advancedideas and propogate them among themasses? The students devoting them­selves to the study of social ques­tions, the originators and developersof the advanced social thought, aretoo lew and they cannot hope toreach the large masses without thesupport of the entire intellectual classstrrvrng to make the progressiveideas dominant among the largerstrata of society. But that the intel­lectual class shalt be animated by aspirit of lprogress, we must reach' itin its formative period through themedium of the school, of a progres­sive University atmosphere, a stu­dent body that is thoroughly andmilitantly progressive.In the European Universities thestudent body, conscious of its duty tothe people for the opportunity of aneducation, really repr-esents the cen­ter of progressive thinking in thenation. W'hy not in our country?The reason is that we in America,in pemCl!Ps the most progressivecountry, have only very recentlyawakened to the appreciation of theprogressive thought, to the con.sciousrealization of the tremendous signi­ficance of the problems of our sociallife. We were so busy 'creatingwealth, struggling with our physicalenvironment, exploiting the naturalresources of the country that wefailed to abserve the increasing com­plications of our social environment.Furthermore, some, of the .socialproblems, for a long time troublingthe countries of Europe, did notcome in this country to the surfaceuntil very recently. At the presenttime ho-wever, we are beset by amighty array of pressing problems ofwhich the most important are theLabor Problem, Preparedness andHypbenism. But notwithstanding thedangerous complications of our so­cial ' life, we still continue in ourschools to confine ourselves to thedevelopment of technical specializa­tion instead of devoting our best ef­.Iorts to a thorough and exhaustivestudy of our social problems. Thismay prve a disastrous mistake. Allour IProgress in physical science willbe of doubtful account unless oursocial machinery is properly adjust­ed, Look at Europe.

We must set ourselves to thesolution of our social problems. \Vemust mobolize all our intellectual re­sources for that purpose. Co-opera­tion should be our motto-. Thew:orld's . progress is tending irresis­tibly in the direction of co-operation.The present great war is only em­phasizing this natural tendency.Whether in peace or war no nationcan achieve its maximum develop­ment, while remaining individualisticand adhering to the laissez Iaire doc­trine. Ours is the age of social con­trol. All individual, group and classintere.sts are being predominated bynational interests. Through a rigidprocess of integraticn the diver.gentsocial groups are blended into_ oneperfectly unified national whole. -T oachieve complete national integrationis the task of America today. In thefulfillment of this task our educa­tronal world should take the. lead.The Universities should set the pace(or national integration by integrat­ing themselves into a powerful ma­chinery of inteIIectual co-operation.Let the Daily Maroon a.s the of­ficial student paper of Chicago, sounda clarion call to the students of theland to bend themselves into an In­dependent National Student Organi­zation for the propoganda of the NewAmericanism expressed in integrationand co-operation. This New Ameri­canism should become the guidingprinciple of all our educational insti­tutions. It should form the cornerstone upon which will be erected agrand system of "team work betweentAe exalted department heads andthe merest student." The Universityof Chicago as the foremost pr-ogres­sive University in the country, shouldtake the initiative in elaborating andpotting into effect a perfect systemof integration, and by its per.sistentteaching of the ideals of co-operationprepare the American nation for theachievement of its historic mission a�the leader of humanity toward .WorldCo-operation! .Morris Gordin.

U. The, same team that competedat LaFayette in the Conference cham­pionship race, will be entered in theamateur run. The competition is ex­pected to be keener than that which,was offered at the Conference meet, soCoach Eck is not looking for his teamto win first place. 'The Chicago Athletic club will bethe representatiyes of the A. A. U.and' will sponsor the race. The dis­tance is six miles, over a level coursein Humboldt Park.

A: C_ and the Mystic A.C. will be some of the downtown ag­�gations represented.Tenney Has Excellent Chanc:e.Tenney stands a good chance of tak­ing first place, because of his record,breaking time at LaFayette. Otis andTenney both defeated Sydney Hatchand Henkle of the Mystic A. C. in ameet held earlier in the year. Thesetwo men are . Chicago's only hope,with the possible exception of Jones ..The showing of Snyder, Powers andCapt. Angier earlier in, the year doesnot rank them with the stars which theamateur clubs WIll enter.The I. A. C. will enter a well-bal­anced team and should take the meet.The Mystic A. C. squad is not con­sidered as good as the Maroon repre­sentatives. limbers of the C. A.' C.team are unknown, but that club hasalways been represented by a fastteam in the past.Coach Eek Makes Statement."I look to see Tenney take the race,"said Mr. Eck, "but just at present itdoes not seem as if the team couldwin first place. The others will prob­ably enter better all-around teams,but if Otis and Jones can win goodpositions we might be able to win out."SEMINARY DEFEATS DIVINITYContest Marks Opening of Inter­seminary Basketball League.The Chicago Theological Seminarybasketball team defeated the Divinityschool quintet by the score of 15 to 12in hard fought game played !astnight in Bartlett.

Most of our large state problemsin charity come out of local condi­tions and problems which are too bigfor communities to solve, accordingto Mr. Amos William 'Butler, secretaryof the State Board of Charities of. In­diana. who spoke on "State Charities,"before a public meeting held underthe auspices of the Philanthropic Ser�vic; division of the college of Com­merce yesterday at 4:30 in the Harperassembly room."The basis for all our large statecharities in every state, are foundedon local condition," declared Mr. But­ler. "Each locality has its own prob­lems in charity, and has its own localinstitutions, to be sure, but manytimes, the conditions are altogetherout of the scope of the local institu­tions. No matter how poor, despisedor degraded a man is, no matter whathis situation is, there should be somepublic official to give fundamentalaid.' and to help when he is sick. orgive him a decent burial. Indiscrim­inate treatment of charity cases hasbeen the cause of many of our great­est problems. The individual needsDf the patient who is seeking charityshould be attended to, and it is herethat the function of the local countyinstitution falls down. «,MUSIC COMPETITION ,FOR FRIAR'S':PLAY·..MTILL START TODAY(Continued from"page 1)elected during anyone session andno more than four sevens shall beelected during anyone year, exceptthat upon a three-quarters vote of allbrothers in the Order, concurred in bya majority of the Board of Directorsand of the trustees of the trust fundhereinafter provided for, a fifth sevenmay be elected."Pass Second Amendment.The amendment prescribing themethod of election of the managerialstaff follows:"Immediately after the election ofthe Superiors for the following yearat the end of the Spring quarter. thenewly elected Superiors and the re­tiring Superiors shall, in joint ses­sion, appoint the manager for the fol- 'lowing year and his staff."

The destitute, theblind, the deaf, the feeble-minded,the insane, the epileptic and thosesuffering from incurable diseases allfound themselves in the old poorhouse.Lately, however, conditions have be­gun 'to change. The individual caseshave been attended to. The state baSstepped in and taken over a large­part of the function of the countypoorhouse."It seems rather strange, but thefirst move that the states made to­ward removing some of the burden ofthe county institutions was to takeout the blind, and then the deaf, andprovide for their care. There has beena tendency to do something useful inthe teaching of the deaf and blind.The' deaf are grad�ally by the latestmethods of science, being taught. tospeak and to understand lip reading.The blind are being taught to read,by 'the upraised letter system and bythe point system. In many placesthe blind are being taught usefuloccupations and trades.Have. Better Understanding."We are coming at last to a bet­ter understanding of the insane, statesh�ve taken gradually the care of th�·insane out of the hMds of county in­stitutions. We have come to learn.that, insanity itself, is simply a legalterm. Doctors call insanity a mentalsickuess. Gradually we are begin­ning to abolih _ the terms "insane"and. "lunatic'.' asylums. We are be­ginning to call the institutions for thecare o� the insane hospitals, and right­ly so. We are gradually djscoverin�that the insane, instead of being givenover to a deadly routine life untiltheir death in the institutions are cap­able of doing something useful."I think that we are on the thresh­old of a period where insanity shallbe more regarded as a disease, andwhere the insane themselves may' beallowed to do something useful tothemselves and society. It has beenproved beyond doubt that the insaneare capable of doing things just aswell as' other people can, if they havethe proper environment.
