Shades of Sheridan IsRight, We’dCommentThe .scene opens with an under¬grad traversing the second floor ofCobb. His meanderings bring him to8B where he pauses a moment in questof excitement. A notice placed withcare upon the lofty portal catches hiseye. He reads. Then he rereads. Hegasps and then departs from thebuilding.As the melodrama progresses, an¬other youth appears upon the stage.He seems in a listless mood and stateof lifelessness. His casual glancefalls upon the young manuscript onthe door of Cobb 8B. A transforma¬tion comes over him. He rushesmadly down the steps, and dashes intothe office of a dean. “Oh—change myEnglish class, will ya,” he ejaculateswildly.“What?” cries the dean in amaze¬ment.But let us return to the scene ofth'^ writing on the door. 9 motleymob of males has gathered about thethreshold. All is utter confusion. Anumber are overcome, and are car¬ried off. All seek to read the scrapof paper.The proverbial reporter dashesmadly into the chaos. He seizes thesign, retires to a secluded spot .safefrom the maddening crowd, and reads,“CLASS IN ENGLISH 69 WILL.MEET TODAY IN FOSTER HALL.”He expires.Comment: By consulting the timeschedule we find that the memorableclass is one in ISth century comedy..Shafles of Sheridan or spirits of Oli¬ver Goldsmith!Indoor Sports in GloryAfc Big EventTomorrow•An event which should be of para¬mount interest to many of the mem¬bers of the University of Chicagostudent body, is scheduled for tomor¬row night.

VENERABLE SENIORSTO DINE TOGETHERIN CAFE TOMORROWMeet Today At 12 in Cobb1 2A to Make Arrange¬mentsPREXY WANTS BIG DELEGATIONThe honorable and honored indi¬viduals who make up the Class of ’21will burst with a rush into the lime¬light tomorrow when a dinner for theSeniors en masse will be staged inHutchinson cafe. The dinner was de¬cided upon at a meeting of the Seniorcouncil two weeks ago. At that timePresident McWilliams brought downhis gavel with a mighty bang and an¬nounced that all was not well.“What’s become of the rest of thepeople in this class?” the presidentwas heard to ask. “There are 750of ’em and about 75 shows up for classaffairs. What’s the matter with thesocial chairman?”Harding in F'avor of MealIn response social chairman ChesterGuy arose, bowed, and spoke in dig¬nified tones after this fashion:"Miss Townley and I have decided,Mr. President, after due considerationthat we will deviate from our usualcustom and plan methods of entertain¬ment that are calculated to arousethe interest not of a few but many.We believe that the Senior classshould work by, for, and with all themembers. To this end we are plann¬ing a series of luncheons or dinnersfor the entire class. At this juncturesing chairman Harding arose with adramatic gesture:“Excuse me for interrupting,” hebegan, “that’s the stuff. Some of ’emmay not like to toddle—but they allfall for the eats. I’m for the dinners.”Should Attend Meeting.sThis oration on the part of Mr.Harding practically ended the meet¬ing. The first dinner, it was agreed,should be held Friday at 6:15 inHutchinson cafe. As a preliminary tothe events that are planned a massmeeting will be held today at noon inCobb 12 A.“Don’t forget the importance ofclass meetings,” was the final sug¬gestion of Kate Smith, Senior Vice-President.Y.

The party willleave there Saturday morning at 8:30.Chanticleer CharmersSeek SubscriptionsWill Chanticleer crow in yourhome? “It will!” .say a score of Uni¬versity women.They yill tell you that the new cam¬pus fortnightly should form as im¬portant a part of your reading as TheDaily Maroon, the Phoeni.x or yourlibrary notices. They will argue thata subscription will be ns important toyou as P. C. is to eligibility and grad¬uation or as necessary as chapel at¬tendance. Therefore, gentle reader,if you are surprised by a sweet yo>mgthing who says, “Hello there,” justremember that she may not be simplycarrying out ♦he spirit of the friend¬liness campaign but she may have adeeper motive—that of selling youone “ironclad, asbestos lined subscrip¬tion to Chanticleer—80 cents for there st of this quarter.”2latly ifiaruottThe Student Newspaper «>f theUniversity of ChicagoPublitheU mornings, except Saturday, Sundayand Monday during the Autumn, Winter andSpring quarters, by The Daily MaroonCompany.Entered as second class mail at the Chi¬cago postof&ce, Chicago, Illinois, March 13,19U6, under the act of March 3, 1873.Offices EUis 14Telephone Midway 800Thursday, January 13, 1921.EDUCATION AND MORALEWhat is wrong with college morale?We at college are curiously silentabout what is undoubtedly one of themost pressing problems of studentlife at the present moment. With thelargest enrollments in their histories,universities and colleges all over thecountry should feel optimistic andview' the future with confidence. Andyet their is something wrong, some¬where.Talk with a group of college stu¬dents about their courses and abouttheir impressions of college life. Thenumber who are thoroughly dissatis¬fied with the whole business is aston¬ishingly large. Of ten men picked atrandom by The Daily Maroon yester¬day and sounded on their views, eightwished to leave college at the earliestopportunity and were only held by thewishes of their parents; of the sameten, only four were certain that theyw'ould finish their college careers andfive were certain that they would not;every one found Haws and faults inthe system of university education.Does the remedy lie in making col¬lege more interesting, or more seri¬ous ? Should we “go in” for campusactivities or seek in our undergraduatecareers a foretaste of the business orprofessional life most of us intend toenter sooner or later ?“I have seen enough of campus ac¬tivities to despair of them,” writes onethoughtful student. Another protestsagainst the abstractness of collegestudies. “The gap between collegeand business is a broad one and repre¬sents a vital weakness in the presentsystem,” he asserts. “Is it asking toomuch of college to expect a four yearcourse to qualify a man for somethingLetter than a high school graduate’sjob?”These criticisms are only examplesof the general undercurrent of discon¬tent. What is to be done about itall ? Will a frank discussion of thep’oulem help? In college as in war,morale must be maintained.H.

THE DAILY MAROON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 13, 1921.What College ElditorsThinkWHICH IS YOUR SMILE?Smiles? Yes, millions of them....smiles of all kinds in color and char¬acter. There are crooked smiles, sar¬donic smiles, sneering smiles, loftyand superior smiles. There are grimsmiles, smiles that make you say toyourself: “Ah, that person is a hardcustomer.”Then, there is the patronizingsmile, the “hand-you-down-kind”which makes you feel like a pigmygroveling in the dust. Some way orother you are inferior; you don’t knowjust exactly why, but you are—allbecause of a slight trick of the lips.But happily, these are not the onlykinds of the millions of smiles. Thesunshine smile, the friendly smile, thecheerful smile and the bright smileare as beautiful atributes to the hu¬man face, as a pair of clear and danc¬ing eyes. Perhaps your smile belongsto this latter class. If so, you areindeed fortunate, because friendshipis yours—yours without the asking.In your old age, instead of a lonelyold man or woman passing his or herlast days without friends, except thekind that money buys, you will havethe harvest, the harvest of friendswhich your smile has reaped.Children will not be afraid of you.Their joyous play will not be dis¬turbed by your pre.sence; and you willhave their frank and open friendship,all because of your smile. People willnot call you an old crank, or even “oldso and so.” They will know you byyour first name, and will be glad tosee you on the street and shake yourhand.Which smile is worth cultivating;and which smile is yours?—Univer¬sity Daily Kansan.WASTEThe world is in a bad condition.Never before, except during the dark¬est days of the late war, has it been>0 necessary for us to save as atpresent. When we hear reports ofthe terrible conditions in Central Europe, in Armenia, in Russia, in China,and in other countries, we should learnthe lesson that waste is criminal andthat it is something of which we areall guilty.When we start to discuss this sub¬ject we must remember that wastebegins in the little things. But. ifit is allowed to continue, it will ac¬cumulate, until it casts a reflectionupon the senstf of economy of thosewho offend. Let us remind our read¬ers, by specific examples, of waste atthe University.The electric lights in the men’slocker room in the basement of Mc-Micken Hall are kept burning day andnight. It makes no difference whetherthe day is bright and sun shiny ordark and gloomy. The lights bumon just the same. Many classroomshave the electric lights in operationwhen they are absolutely not neededall of which add to the expense of thecity, and surely our city is in no con¬dition to stand any unnecessary ex¬penditures.Then again some students purchasefood in the Commons and fail to eatwhat they have paid for. We remem¬ber, of course, the time before the warwhen it was not considered fashionableto leave an empty plate at the table.But those days are over and probablywill never come back. There arethousands of women and children inEurope at the present time whp arein dire need of food, and it is not fairto them to leave food untouched, eventhough one has paid for it.All of these reminders may seemtrivial to the reader, but if they aresummed up and the total amount ofwaste is revealed, the good, whole¬some common sense of Americans willprevent its continuance. And, we al¬most forget to mention the greatestthat we waste, TIME. Think of thehours and hours that all of us wasteweekly. Don’t understand us to meanthat the student should never play,but I am sure that all will admit thatthere have been innumerable timeswhen we have reproached ourselvesfor wasting time.The lighting of the locker room andof the class rooms on days when itis unnecessary can easily be remedied.But the other specific examples ofwaste must be remedied accordingto the habits and conscience of theindividual. It probably seems like asubject that is not of sufficient im¬portance for editorial comment, butconsidered in the collective sense, itis an item that demands the seriousattention of the students and facultyand can and should be corrected—University News (Cincinnati) Mrs. Fox was bragging one dayabout the large number of hercubs.“How many cubs do you bringinto the world at one time ?” sheasked the LIONESS"Only ONE,"replied the Lioness—' but it‘s a LION I "MURADS COST 20 CENTSFOR A BOX OF 10BUT THEY’RE MURADSMURADS would be lowerpriced if we left out all or part ofthe 100% Turkish tobaccos of thepurest and best varieties grown —or if we substituted inferior gradesof Turkish tobacco.But they wouldn’t be MURADS—they’d only be Foxes!“Judge for Yourself—! ”We call special attentionto Murad 20t in Tin BoxesAdrtaUyiiSOS Wo*<wi Utt tbihtg Qcadt TurkitksnJ E^pUan OfurrSn in Htt WarUDANCING TONIGHT.\nd FIvery Thursday and Saturday8::i0-12;00 atWOODLAWN TEMPLE64th St. and University .Ave.Best Music Good FloorMANAGEMENT—Teresa Dolan Ben F.

Perhaps he swore—most likelyhe did.Two minutes and fifty-three secondslater he was at the telephone inform¬ing the Hyde Park Police of the sud¬den and mysterious disappearance ofhis car. They reassured him with thetheory . that it had probably beenstolen and that they would imme¬diately put their sleuths on the trail.Following which, Rycroft again wentforth and with the aid of severalfriends instituted a systematic search,under the front porch, in the ash can,and other unlikely places. But noluck.It took the genius of Bruce Bell,who, if the readers recall, last wintermade apparent to the student body hisHolmes-like ability in apprehendingthe crook responsible for numerousfraternity house robberies, to solve themystery. Bell, awaking as usualTuesday morning, prepared for hisdaily practice of a brisk run beforebreakfast. In order to avoid any con¬ference track scouts that may behanging around he had been in thehabit of confining his training to thealley which runs parallel and imme¬diately behind University avenue, andit was at the Fifty-sixth street ter¬minal of this improvised track thatBell ran directly into the solution ofthe crime which was baffling thepolice.Nursing his bruised shin and simul¬taneously commenting emphatically onthe cause of his grief. Bell paused afew moments to survey the situation.He rubbed his eyes, yawned a fewtimes professionally and sleepily, andexamined the car. It required but acursory investigation to convince himthat it was the one for which they badsearched so fruitlessly the precedingnight. No evidence as to the identityof the thieves was present; so the emi¬nent sleuth repaired at once to thePhi Psi house, from which place hetelephoned the result of his successfulquest to the police.Bell entertains the theory that thecar was not stolen but merely appro¬priated by several jokers, and whileChief Fitzmorriss of the Chicago Po¬lice Department reluctantly acceptsthis belief -coming from such irrefutable source——he maintains that thejoke would have been on the jokershad they been apprehended. It’s quitea joke, the chief insists, to spemlthirty days in the Bridewell with noother menu than that of bread andwater.Bachelor Pre-Medic«Take Up DieteticsA number of men in the pre-medicalhool, realizing the need for an un-rstanding of dietetics in their work,ive requested the Home Economicspartment to provide such a course.3 a result they are enrolled th’sarter in Elementary Dietaries whichgiven by several instructors of thetime Economics department.
