FOR GOD OR THE DEVIL.
“Now is the time for every citizen or
group of citizens who have any weight
at all to show their colors,” wns the
statement ninde last night by Dr. Joseph
Schafer as he commented upon the tele
gram sent President Wilson by the facul
ty of the University. This telegram en
dorsed the attitude of President Wilson
it the national crisis and condemned the
filibusters.
Dr. Schafer’s comment implies that
there should be no lackadaisical attitude
on (he part of anyone who has the red
blood of pure thought flowing through his
veins. In other words pure thought makes
a sharp differentiation between those
who uphold the action of President Wil
son and (hose who do.not. Dr. Schafer
does not believe, we assume, there should
be any straddling the fence. We heartily
agree. The person who does the. strad
dling is the target of both sides. lie is
like the negro tramp who wns being
chased by an irate farmer bearing a load
ed shotgun. The negro raced to a fence,
leaped upon it and ns he paused, an in
furiated bull snorted a welcome on the
Ollier side. Sambo gnve an agonized
look to the rear and ns equally an agon
ized one to Hu1 fore. Then closing his
eyes, be muttered, “Oawd, I alius knew
I was a wuthless pusson. But Ink me
quick now for if you doan’t de debil is.”
Right now pacificism and patriotism
are waging a sharp fight throughout the
United States. But as far as that is
concerned history is simply repeating it
self. In 1770 it was Tory against Yan
kee, in 1801 it was copperhead against
federal. History, we predict, will even
repeat itself farther. With more develop
ments and a call to arms we will see
pacificism swept away. Who are the pa
cificists anyway? Are they the youth
of the land upon whom will depend the
brunt of the fighting? We venture the
opinion they arc not. The youth of the
land has not yet been heard from. The
wrangling is being left to the elders. Ac
tion will be left to the youth of the
United States.
Have you noticed how wisely the sen
ior^ choose? For instance they have a
sergeant-at-arms named Lynch. Now
when lhe roughnecks of (lie class get
started, l’rcxy Geary says, “Lyneh-em.”
The time was when debate attracted
as much attention ns a football game,
Now the thousands go to a football game
where the ones and twos attend a for
| onsie battle. Who can say our love of
I brawn and physical action is disappear
' ing in our psychic evolution?
Startling Revelations in Koyl Cup
Trial; Seniors Almost Personal
Scandal Also Unearthed on Junior Ranks; Cupids Pranks Scor
ed Mercilessly; Sophs and Freshmen More Dig
nified Than Upperclassmen.
“Be it resolved that the report on
the activities of the committee of which
Frank Seaiefc was chairman he disre
garded and n new committee chosen to
examine the sanity of said chairman.
So road the motion unanimously passed
hv the senior class yesterday morning
at its meeting in Deady hall. The prev
iously mentioned report was made on
the mysterious disappearance of the
Koyl cup from the bed chamber of Nich
olas Jaureguy. Fred Kiddle and Scoop
Itathbun were also implicated in the
theft and were likewise concerned in
the investigation.
After nearly a month’s absence the
cup iignin made its appearance in a most
(lriHuntic manner. Mr. Seaiofe was on
the witness stand pleading that the
award be made to the real man of the
class, one who is “always a man under
all circumstances, who is true to the
name.” With this the jury agreed
Whereupon the speaker made a briel
exit under the table and brought forth
the clip which he presented to Frances
Mann, accompanied by loud applause
President Poland Geary called tin
meeting to order. A little music b.v
the gallery and Seaiofe was called upon
to make a report of the findings of tin
committee. Unfortunately, according tr

his statement, “some unmitigated
wretch” had stolen his speech but a
few minutes before the meeting was
called.
“Home people,” he said, “have mis
taken the idea that Jaureguy is a
model student because he is working his
way through school and is eapnest, hard
working, Christian, popular, and men
tally, morally and physically deserving.
That’s bunk. As for working his way
through school, the following have been
lost by li. Itathbun: One pair shoes,
one pair socks, one sack flour and one
wrist watch, Fred Kiddle has also
missed a vanity box. Another thing, he
whittles backwards like a girl, uses bay
rum, parts his hair in the middle, and
placed in the cup some sort of debris,
which, when analyzed, proved to contain
90 per cent alcohol.”
Jureguy took the floor next after
Scaiefe hud been placed in a chair on
the platform where the multitude could
gaze upon his guilt. lie vehemently,
violently denied his guilt.
Scoop Rathbun appeared on behalf of
Jaureguy. “If you look upon Skinny,”
he said, “you will probably recognize
the missing link.”
The motion to try Scaiefe for insan
ity carried without a hitch. In the
course of the trial Scaiefe was in dan
ger of being sandbagged three times
and was refused the floor an equal num
ber of times.
MATRIMONY AND PERFIDY
DISCUSSED BY JUNIORS1
Scandal crept out in the junior class
house of representatives which con
venejj yesterday morning for the first
time in Guild hall. Perfidy in class ac
tivities. internal corruption in the creden
tials of certain members and alarming
conditions of a matrimonial or betrothal
nature were unmasked during'the delib
erations.
Vivian Kelleins opened fire in the
legitimate meeting with a protest against
the results of the drawing in the junior
lottery. Agitation for u redrawing was
quashed. Miss Ivellems’ partner is Joe
Hedges.
As soon as the iceting was turned
over to the house of representatives,
Harold Tregilgas took the chair, clad
in skull cap, whiskers and a gavel re
sembling a liquor keg.
In rapid-fire order came the scor
ing of Ed Harwood and Bay Couch and \
Kent Wilson for too atrocious infringe- I
mcnt upon the god of chance and the i
class’s credulity in connection with the (
lottery. Besolutions, passed with but
few dissenting votes, ordered Jimmie
Sheehy to patch up his quarrel with a
junior co-ed in punishment for his
shameful jilting of her; queried a trio
of the representatives as regarded their
matrimonial intentions and awarded all
speed records to Ed and Koberta.
Kenneth Bartlett confessed to hugging
the bank while nestling close to the
side of his canoe. “Addition” Epping
mercilessly scored nil those in the class
who had plighted their troth and cast
scathing remarks toward all college en
gagements.

Mrs. Vernon Castle
in
The Photoplay Supreme
By Louis Joseph Vance
PATRIA is unique among
serials. Its interest centers
not only around a lovable
heroine and a gallant hero,
but embraces a blood-stirring
Cause! You cannot help lov
ing Patria Channing, as play
ed by Mrs. Vernon Castle.
You cannot help breathing
deep in sympathy with her,
as peril after peril is en
countered. But the real thrill
comes through the fact that it
is not only the beautiful
woman, but your own belov
ed country that is threatened
bv these dangers. If you have
an ounce of patriotism in your
make-up, PATRIA will make
you Shout!
