MetHods of study of individual sen- ;
iors and juniors as described by them J
selves is suggestive and interesting.
One prominent senior girl who iias great
demands on her socially says:
“I make a point of paying close at
tention at lectures and try to put things
down in my memory at that hour. Make
your lecture hours count and you save
time. I don’t take so very many notes,
just a few points on things that are
not very clear and these I look up af
terwards.”
A junior who is making a sovenir
collection of I’s and 2’s tells the secret
in these words:
“It is what you study, not how
much.” he says, “I take the time to
note down little side facts that the
professors mention in conneetioj with
the subject they are lecturing on.
Later I look these up in some good ref
erence book and in this way I get a
wider knowledge than a lot of the
other fellows. When it comes to ex
amination I can supplement my general
information with a little special. Its
worth while and very interesting.”
Two seniors in pre-medics who de
clare they are “Bnowed under” cltfim
that they can study best under pres
sure of many accumulated assign
ments.
“I go on a regular spree of study
when I begin,” says one, “I let every
thing go for most of the week and
then I take a whole day off and dig
hard.”
“That is all there is to it, just
getting in and digging hard,” chimed
in the other. “Wc don’t make our
selves slaves to any system, don’t be
lieve in them.”
“Oh I like to just go along easy and
uot worry about anything,” smiled a
good natured journalism junior. “But
I’ll show you what I do,” he said open
ing tho back of his note book.
The back page was all divided up
into days and hours and into different
sections he had placed tiny notes of
what assignments were due ami which
must bo prepared without delay. It
was a good scheme. His easy going
way was based ou a fairly well-oilod
system.
“I hardly take any notes,” says
another, “I am trying to train my mem
ory to retain all tho essential facts.
T'm getting better every term. I don’t
need to take down assignments either.
I can usually remember them all. If
you tako endless notes at tho end of
the term you have a hand written text
book, and it is no good to you. Only
what you have in your mind is any
good to you. So train yourself to put
things permanently in your mind and
just before a final exam read up on
any part you think you need to review
i never get time to do all tho outside
reading in any of my courses, so I
remember all 1 can and read up a lot
of stuff just before exams. It’s the
only way 1 can get along,” he said.
How do you study! Tho psychology
books tell us that learning acquired
quickly and under conditions of en
forced concentration is more worth
while than much studying under
leisurely conditions.

WELLS HISTORY OUTLINE
IS NOT MAKING ATHIESTS
(Continued from page one.)
neither help nor hinder it. This is what
wo have done in the case of Budda, and
what we shall do later with Muham
mad. About Jesus we have to write
not theology but history, and our con
corn is not with the spiritual and
theological significance of his life, but
with its effects upon the political and
every-day life of men.
Jesus Shown Unreal
“Jesus was a penniless teacher, who
wandered about the dusty sun-bit
country of Judea, living upon casual
gifts of food; yet he is always repre
sented clean, combed and sleek, in spot
less raiment, erect and with something
motionless about him as though he was
gliding through the air. This alone has
made him unreal and incredible to
many people who cannot distinguish the
core of the story from the ornamental
ami unwise additions of the unintel
ligently devout. And it may be that
the early parts of the gospels are ac
cretations of the same nature.”
As to its technical worth the Outline
does not stand very well in the eyes of
I)r. Clark. “We don’t even allow our
major students to take the World His
tory course for we want them to go
deeper than a study of Wells allows,”
he said. Major students receive .'16
hours of history as compared with the
12 hours of the two year course in
World History. Dr. Clark admitted the
value of the work for students who had
no time to specialize, however.
Other Texts Used
Dean Sheldon and Dr. Fish over
come some of the technical deficiencies
of the Outline by using Breasted’s
“Ancient Times,” Robinsons’ “Medie
val and Modern Times” and other
books.
Students who have taken or are tak
ing the course do not “swallow the ideas
whole,” according to beliefs expressed
by a number of members or former
members of Dr. Sheldon’s classes. “The
ideas we recoivo in World History are
given consideration, all right,” said
one, “but there is no danger that I can
see of becoming an atheist or even a
cynic from the study of the Outline.
Several students resented the use of
biased facts in the work and all ex
pressed an appreciation of the inter
estir.g way in which it is written and
its vitalizing characteristics.
OPAL WHITLEY WRITES
SOME ORIGINAL VERSE
(Continued from page one)
Clan of the Lichens” is good and
probably it is the most nearly original
in thought.
“The Cantata of the Stars” reflects
a theory or creation in Dunsany in
“Gods of Pegan.” “The End of a Sap
phire Day” clearly suggests that writ
er’s style. Opal still retains her fond
ness for the gerund and verbal noun,
so prominent in her diary. In this
little now book she speaks of a man’s
“deathing” in addition to the former
“birthing” and “horning.”

RACE LINE MAKES TROUBLE
Refusal of Dormitory Room to Black
Alumnus’ Son Starts Dispute
Harvard, Feb. 10.—A new problem
has recently been created for the au
thorities of Harvard University over
the question of the residence of negro
students with the. white students. As
is probably known, at Harvard, all
freshmen are compelled to reside in the
Freshman Dormitories. The trouble
arose when a colored alumnus of the
University wrote the authorities re
questing a room in the dormitories for
his son. The refusal to permit colored
men to reside in the same dormitories
with the white men was almost immedi
ate on the part of the university heads
and a protest was then forwarded to
the university by the offended man.
This case is causing much discussion
from the upholders of both sides and
promises to become a serious question
for Harvard authorities in the future.
Like some fair goddess
Of an olden poet’s rhyme,
You stand before me.
Slowly—from time to time,
Your listless fingers
Listlessly caress my hair—
And leave a happy ecstaey
To live and flourish there. —A. J.
