Herein lies the college man’s opportunity to serve his fel­ low-; to interpose deliberation between their impulses and action and in that way to control both. r The Texan prints a story about the Battle of Kegs” of January, 1778. It is wed I the date is given, or some critic might use it as a text for an arraignment of University sobriety. — H A R - Professor Armstrong lectured last night on “ A Trip Through Southern Europe.” which was announced as of special interest to English students. Germany is now engaged in a trip of her own through Southern Europe, a matter likewise of interest to Eng­ lish students, and non-students, too. — H A R — ‘‘Dupont Gun Plant Believed Ruined; Details Lacking.”— Headline. Doubt­ less the details were wafted by the force of the explosion to points in ad­ jacent counties. - H A R — Everyone admires a man of met­ tle, provided there is not too much brass in it, declares an exchange.— Waco Morning News, In this connec­ tion scrap mettle is not calculated to arouse unalloyed admiration. “ Society has a right to expect col­ lege men to help in moulding opinion and .shaping conduct in matters of this sort it is their privilege and duty to co-operate with others in leading cru­ sades against crime and mob rule and for law and civilization. The college man belongs in the front rank of those fighting for moral and social prog­ ress. For this reason the university commission makes its first appeal to you and urges you .strongly to co­ operate with the press, the pulpit, the liar, officers of the law and all other to eliminate this agencies striving great evil by speaking out bodly when speech is needed and letting your in­ fluence be felt against it in decided, unmistakable measure and manner. “ W.

Over against scholar­ ship they are placed as the greatest tormentor of that his­ toric champion of academic arena. They are the cause of professorial woes, low grades, untimely termination of collegej ate careers, and consequent pa­ rental pangs and tribulation. But student activities should be differentiated from the multi­ tude of parasitical activities and inactivities sailing under a false It is trur that a number Hag. of students indulge to their det­ riment in the worthy and neces­ sary activities, but the great ma­ jority ot those who engage in extra-curriculum pastimes to their detriment are not, strictly speaking, engaging in student ac- t iv it ies, according to the common "I acceptation of that term. Leafing on the Campus bench­ es, attending germans, playing pool or frittering away time in idle gossip, though not in the same category as to merit, are nevertheless not student activi­ ties. Student activities proper are those activities which supple­ ment the curriculum in bringing about the greatest improvement in student life, especially making possible the greatest benefit from the community life of stu­ dents. Do away with such ac­ tivities entirely, and University life would be robbed of a very! valuable and vital element. I he problem is to make stu­ dent activities proper so efficient and so beneficial that they will tend to eliminate activities for­ eign to the purpose of a univer­ sity and better supplement the work of the curriculum.

V SKIS lance Urged to Prevent Mob Rule in the South. rhe following is an extract from an open letter by the University Com­ mission on Rare Questions which re­ cently met in N'orth Carolina to study I t best means of preventing the growing tendency toward lynching for crimes in the South. Dr. Sutton of the University was very prominent on this commission, and has given his hearty recommendation to the advice offered in the letter. “ These are the terrible facts. Is, there no remedy? Have we not suf- Dcient legal intelligence and machin- e'\ to take care of every case of] crime committed? Must we fall back on the methods of the jungle? C ivili­ zation rests on obedience to law, which means the substitution of rea­ son and deliberation for impulse, in­ stinct and passion. It is easy and tempting to obey the latter, but to be governed by the former requires self control, which comes from the inter­ position of thought between impulse RYAN’S FRUIT STAND ( HOK E F R U IT S Lemons, Apples, Bananas, Nuts, Can. dies, Cigars, Cigarettes, Tobaccos — A our Favorite Magazine— C A LL W IL L IA M RYAN AT 825. 2214 Guadalupe St. BILLIARDS AND POCKET BILLIARDS New Fables, New Fixtures, New Place.

WUKASCH M ISTA KE IN CAUSE OF DEATH B y mistake, an article in Tuesday’s Texan said that the death of Reuben Frederiehs had been due primarily to injuries to his skull, received in foot­ ball practice. According to Coach Ettlinger, this report was entirely er­ roneous, in that Frederiehs w as‘only out for football for about two weeks and during that time wag never hurt at ail seriously. Frederiehs met hi« death from injuries received during the Christmas vacation, while out hunting. The student who was hurt was M » C. Culbertson, a Junior Law, who was knocked unconscious one afternoon in scrimmage with the first team. Cul­ bertson, however, is now thoroughly recovered and in no way permanently injured.
