Bob I wish you all theluck.* ♦ eTHE DEVIL WE DOBy Robert Bernard CarlsonYouth, it would seem, is growingup. For contributions are failing theAthenaeum. Or Youth, having re¬belled, is waiting eagerly, defiantly,breathlessly, for its answer. THEATHENAEUM MUST GO ON. Someone must reply to those courageousundergraduates, darlings of the gods.They (under psuedonyms and don’tbe discouraged by Euphues, Nestor-ianus, Childs, Orpen) have written ofcoeds (to put it mildly). Can no,oh no, no one answer this?And don’t sneer (jeers catcalls)hastily at columns. Change the “o”to “a” and the “s” to “y”. I lookeddown upon columns until a patienteditor explained to me their divinenature. As he phrased it. the per¬sonal column is the link beteen thegreat and the near, and the contri¬butors column is the opportunity forbudding and blown flowers to seetheir names in print—under contri¬butions for which any charge wouldbe extortion and any payment, char¬ity. The nobleness of such a functionis not to be lightly disparaged. Too,the column is invaluable duringcinema “strikes”. Truly, the glitter¬ing way. A few editors go even far¬ther. This, for instance; where theliterary page endstherethe open forum begins. After such astart, can we fail the Athenaeum?No. We can’t. We who cannot re¬bel—we will sing. F’or songs arehighly acceptable, even if the literarypage has ended. (No Blackfriar.songs) (No political songs) (No"Line” poetry) (No) (No) (No)Those who can Ind choral singingdull after the Kedrotf quartet cango to the Oasis and dance.Let us not all, however, be reac¬tionary.

A So¬ciety for the investigation of peoplewho say “so called.” A sub commit¬tee of the more fastidious to preparea report on the English policeman—the only man on campus (new offi¬cial spelling, quadrangle) to pro¬nounce “literati” correctly.

Established as an annualprize by the Chicago section of thesociety, the medal was bestowed onProfessor Harkins by a jury oftwelve eminent American chemists,among whom Professor Julius Stieg-litz, head of the University chemistrydepartment, was included.Several Years’ ResearchThe work for which Professor Har¬kins was honored comprises the re-sulits of several years’ research inphysical chemistry. One of his majordiscoveries, in the field of surfacefilms and surface tension, the forcecreated by molecular attraction onthe surface of liquids, is .said to beof commercial value in lubricationand oil flotation.Professor Harkins’ research alsobrought results in the field of iso¬topes and molecular structure.Among his findings in these linesis the determination of the isotopes,“species” which interlock to make upone of the ninety-two elements ofchlorine and mercury.Graduate of StanfordA graduate of Leland Stanforduniversity. Professor Harkins was forseveral years a member of the fac¬ulty of both Stanford and the Uni¬versity of Montana before he as¬sumed in 1914 the duties of an as¬sistant professor of chemistry in theUniversity.STUDENTS EXPLOREJUVENILE COURT ONRECONCILATION TRIP“The Child—His Nature and HisNeeds” is the subject of the Recon¬ciliation trip scheduled for Saturday,from 8 to 5 under the direction ofIra I.

AMERICAN POETRANKED HIGH INMOODY J.ECTUREJohn V. A. WeaverReads OwnVerseBy Charles H. GoodJohn V. A. Weaver, poet, play¬wright, and critic, maae his first ap¬pearance on a University platformlast night when he appeared underthe auspices of the Wm. VaughnMIoody lecture association, in a read¬ing of his own poems and in a lec¬ture on the American language. Mr.Weaver promptly fascinated his Man-del hall audience and kept its atten¬tion to such a degrree that it was notwilling to let him go even after a fullevening of witty comment and goodpoetry.“The American languge, as I writeit,” said Mr. Weaver, “is really Chi-cagoese. It was while I was work¬ing in Chicago, trying to cinvince th jowners of boarding houses that theirads would be more widely read in theNews than in the Tribune that I firstbecame conscious of the independentAmerican language, which was spok¬en everywhere.”American Not SlangMr. Appadurai Aaron of India, Mr.Hanna Fam of Egypt, Mr. Paul Sungof China. Mr. C. C. Blooah of Li¬beria, Miss Jean Dickinson and Mr.M. D. McLean will speak at the firstInstitute.The group will appear at a highschool assembly Friday at 3.

The showing of thepictures is sponsored by the Militaryclub of the University which is com¬posed of members of the R. O. T. C.The meeting is open to everyone. Mr. Weaver continued, “Americahas a language all its own, and onewhich is generally spoken here. Wehave a dialect such as are found inEngland, rather the language is itselfa universal dialect.”Mr. Weaver read a number of hispoems, beginning with “The Ring onthe Victrola.” He explained how hehappened to write his early poem inAmerican. He also read severalpoems in what he explained wasEnglish. Among these was “ToYouth,” which he called a farewellto his own youth, 'Only “American” AuthorAccording to his own admission,Mr, Weaver is the only author to bewriting serious work in the Americanlanguage today. He mentioned RingLardner as being the best short storywriter of the period and credited himwith being one of the foremots writ¬ers in America, though in a humor¬ous vein.Mr. Weaver’s DOdk of poems in¬cludes “In America,” “Finders,” and“More in America,” his most recentbook. He is also a book and motion-picture critic. .\nd was recently co¬author of a play, “Love ’em andLeave ’em,” He is a graduate ofHamilton College.Professor Andrew C. McLaughlin,of the history department, introduc¬ed Mr. Weaver.Professor McLaughlin said thatMr. Weaver should have a perfectknowledge of the American lan¬guage for he was not only a col¬lege graduate, but also a fraternityman.Symphony Closes Campus SeasonWith Popular Request NumbersBy J. Aldean GibboneyAlternately rising and falling inits emotional quality, the last Uni¬versity Symphony concert of theseason swung to a triumphant closein the “Bacchanale and Finale” fromthe Overture to “Tannhauser” byWagner.The concert opened with the Over¬ture, “In Springtime,” Opus 36, byGoldmark, followed by Dvorak’sSymphony No, 5 in E Minor, fromthe New World, Opus 95. The entiresymphony perhaps found more favorwith the audience than the othernumbers, but the “Largo” as usual,found most appreciation, in spite ofthe vibrant rendition of the “Ada¬gio.”The next number, “The Young Prince and the Young Princesses”from Suite “Schererazade,” Opus 35,by Rimsky-Korsakow, carried its es¬pecial appeal in the lyric quality ofthe violin.As a fitting conclusion to a suc¬cessful season the orchestra playedWagner’s “Bacchanale and Finale”from the Overture to “Tannhauser.”The stirring conclusion of the num¬ber evoked perhaps more than thecustomary “storm of applause,” fromthe audience, composed as usual ofa preponderance of people from out¬side the University.The program was arranged byFrederick Stock from request num¬bers selected on the basis of the bal¬ance and length of the program aswell as the wish of the public as ex¬pressed through the requests.Page Two THE DAILY MAROON.

Bookstore Fraternities Woodworths BookstoreStudents on this campus have, on the whole, a rather vagueand hazy notion as to the intellectual trend that the Universityis taking; they are relativ’ely unacquainted with the ideal Uni¬versity that President Max Mason and the administration arestriving to eventually attain. For the reason that its achieve¬ment and ultimate success depends a great deal upon studentconsciousness we are taking the liberty of sketching the outlinesof this ideal institution from materials gathered from a numberof President Mason’s lectures.A college without quizzes, with no credits obtained by thepresent stereotyped method, with routine banished except forwhat is self-imposed, a place where the student may get themost fun out of life—that is the university of the future in themind of President Mason. Its slogan is “opportunity, not com7pulsion.”In the words of President Mason himself, “We are shootingat a system that will do away with credits and present examina¬tion methods and make out of this a research institution in whichstudents are stimulated to work out things for themselves.”President Mason thinks that there is too much factual contentin courses today, and that the attempt to give every bit of in¬formation possible is an erroneous one. What should be done isto inspire intellectual curiosity, and let the student find the factsfor himself. His idea is that the first two years in college shouldbe given over to general education. At the end of that periodthe student is a fairly well educated man; he know’s enoughfor general purposes. From that time on he should begin tospecialize, to fen’et out truths for himself by himself.That is where the fun comes in. The student becomes awareof the joy and pleasure of learning things in the field of his in¬terest ; he discovers “the beauty existing in the workings of themind.” One of the outstanding faults of the present day educa¬tional systems is that they do not allow some of this “joy of dis¬covery” to the student: everything is dogmatically unfolded be¬fore him; his function is merely to absorb.In President Mason’s ideal university “the spirit of produc¬tive scholarship” is made the leading light of the educationalmethod. The student’s hours are his own, he need not be com¬pelled to go through the ritual of roll call and class attendanceeach day. He consults and seeks the advice of an instructor con¬cerning some problem that has arisen in his work, but he doeshis work alone with a zest and zeal that has come with his awak¬ened interest in intellectual achievement. And he feels muchmore satisfied with himself, much more confident in his ownability; he becomes an individual possessed with a mind andcapable of using it.This future university which “educates through participa¬tion in research” is the goal of President Mason and the admin¬istration. It is the incarnation of President Mason’s oft utteredbelief ‘that nobody can educate you but yourself.” It is trulysomething to look forward to.

How'ever as this wasthe first competition for the Uni¬versity teams, their showing wascommendable. Friday night the U.of C. 1st team fell before the on¬slaught of the 124 Field Artillery2nd team while their team mates onthe 2nd lost to the soldiers’ thirdsquad.On Saturday night the Maroonpoloists were again bested by thetrio from Culver, and the “seconds”lost to the academy’s third stringboys.Since the “pill chasers” have beenpracticing for a few weeks a tenta¬tive lineup which was followed inthe above-mentioned competitionshas been evolved. The first teamconsists of Mattick, Scace, Renhault,while the second squad is composedof Paddock, Levin, and Watrous.given to Elmer Friedman, Chicago;Henry Kerr, Struthers, Ohio, and BillNash, Little Rock Arkansas; the OldEnglish “C” to E.

Eisendrath,Awards in swimming were made GRID CANDIDATESLACKING IN SPRINGFOOTBALL PRACTICECaptain Weislow Stresses^ Need For BackfieldMenAccording to Saul Weislow, foot¬ball captain, there is an urgent needfor spring football candidates, espe¬cially back-field men. A squad ofabout forty have been working outdaily for the last few weeks underdirection of Captain Weislow andthe coaches. But seven of these areback- field men, not even enough toprovide material for scrimmage. Itis imperative that more candidatesappear, a.s it has been decided thatthe final lineup will depend greatlyupon the men’s performance in thespring drill. What is specially regret¬ted is that few of the numeral win¬ners and second varsity of last sea¬son have been seen on the practicefield. It is to these men that thecoachs look to fill vacancies causedby graduation.Saul wishes it to be understoodthat there are two complete sched¬ules for two varsity teams, and thosewho are not practicing from fear oflacking ability stand a very goodchance of making the second varsityand of playing if they come out forspring football.to all men for the first time, Capt.Edwin Fellinger, Are Krogh, KarlMygdal and Harry Rittenhouse, cap¬tain of the water polo team, receiv¬ing the major letter.

Hridjjes vary inlength from a few feet to several miles and in costfrom a few dollars to millions. Steel and concrete aresteadily rej>lacinj^ wood and iron in hridjje constructionand reconstruction, and the ridinj^ and maintenancequalities of bridges are freciuently improved nowadaysby providing decks that will permit the use of ballastwhere the tracks are laid.Tunnels arc shafts, short or long, through hills ormountains. The principal rea.son for their con.struc-tion—which sometimes also governs the construction ofbridges—is to shorten routes. fre(|ucntly with an ac¬companying reduction in grades.Switches [lermit of the joining of tracks so thattrains may move readily from one to another. .Mthoughmost switches arc still operated bv hand at the points ofjunction, a good many combinations of switches andsignals are operated from central towers, called “inter-lockers.” the purpose being to protect crossings ofrailroads at grade and movements from one track toanother on the same line. These devices are so con¬structed that trains cannot he given the right to makeconflicting movements.Signals vary in kind and cost from the simple hand-operated switch markers to the elaborate automaticelectric systems which direct the operation of trains.H the block system of signals, the proximity of trainsin indicated by -the positions of signal amis or by thecolors or ^lositions of lights, .\utomatic train control,now being installed on many lines, extends the effect ofsuch signals to the locomotive cab, applying the brakesas needed in case the engineer is not on the alert. Insuch a system, lights in the locomotive cab mav supplement or even replace the wayside signals. 'Fuel and water supplies have to be kept availableat convenient intervals along the line. Elevated binsfilled by mechanically operated buckets or belts serveas coaling stations. Water tanks must be providedsometimes up to a capacity of 2CX),ooo gallons, and res¬ervoirs and pumping stations have to be maintainedto serve them. In many localities, treating plants arenecessary, to prepare the water supply for boiler use.Needless to say, these many important incidentalshelp to run up the bills for railway construction, main¬tenance and operation.Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.L.
