ON FULL and sufficient con sideration, the old preju dices arc less baneful than tho new; time, by long usage, has given them a polish and made them almost innocent.—Anatole France. Trust in God And Be Successful HAS religion come to the point where it must be invested with false motives in order that it may make headway 1 Must it offer the same inducements as a correspon dence sehool course f In yesterday’s Emerald appeared a story concerning an address de livered by Harry E. Dodge, Y. M. C. A. secretary, in which the fol lowing appeared: “Cultivate the presence of God. It’s a matter of faith. But give <Iod a chance and if I come back 25 years from now and see you in the audience you will be among the suc cessful men and women in the com munity,” he said, telling of the suc cess which many famous business and professional men had met, through God. “Money alone does not make suc cess,” the speaker added, offering the testimonials of forty millionaires who agreed that a person who is unhappy without money cannot be happy with money. What a remarkable and discour aging confession for forty million aires to make! It is to be assumed, ■of course, that money, plus relig ion, means success and happiness, 1 —this without any indication that j religious teachings had any part j in these men’s lives. <5od works in mysterious ways, and it would have been most inter- j ■eating to hear the mechanics of tho j wonderous system explained by the j visiting speaker. He might have i been able to tell why some persons have character, wealth, and happi ness, but none of the religion to which he referred, while others have the religion, but neither health, wealth, character or happiness. Correspondence schools also of- j for character, wealth, and happinessj —success—but they explain in de- j tail just how and why. When John, energetic and of sterling character, comes to the happy home and kisses his sweet wife and lovable children, while flashing his pay check show !_ ing a substantial increase in sal ary, he proudly and generously an nounces that the course he took by mail was responsible for his success. But John doesn’t mention a word about a possible Silent Partner, and as far as we know the correspon dence schools, that claim the same benefits as Mr. Dodge offers for re ligion, don’t include religion in their courses of instruction. There’s no mumbo-jumbo about the correspondence school course. There are no strings attached to its offer. If Mr. Dodge has anything to say for religion, why does he not say it, instead of offering premiums? There is certainly more to be said for God liness than that it will bring suc cess. That word success is not going to help religion on its admittedly up hill climb. If Mr. Dodge can offer in religion a refuge from success, he might get more of a hearing. But then, anything could probably be of fered. Don’t forget when at church next Sunday to ask for your profit-shar ing coupon. When the required num ber have been gathered, consult the premium book and select the de sired success. These are all wrapped, ready for delivery by the preachers of the “successful Godliness” doc trines. Note on Good Old College Spirit 'T'HE “good old days,” so much -*• relished by the old grads, came back to life at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology a few days ago, with the following result: “The freshmen broke up a sophomore banquet in the gym nasium by tossing tear bombs in the windows. The free-for-all fight that followed ended with the wrecking of the building at an estimated damage of $1000. In addition, six sophomores were knocked unconscious, several trol ley cars were wrecked, and a sub way car was badly damaged.” It has not yet been recorded that five hundred grads each contributed $1,000 to alma mater in apprecia tion of the show of spirit. Good old school spirit. And some people complain that university ed ucations aro destroying all good traditions in the world! Well, well. We’re getting back to normalcy. Threo big ones for tho good old days. Break it! Commun ications Ma A Post Graduate Symposium When ihe class of 192(i graduated, ■its spirit, descended to the isolated garden of the past, where the spirits ■of the grads sit on alabaster thrones together—dreaming regretfully of the unique educational opportunities they passed by when within the halls of their Alma Mater. When the newcomer entered, all turned toward him and the spirit of the class of 1925 spoke on behalf of all: “Tell thy story, stranger—give up a word of the school we left to you.” •‘I am the spirit of the class of "925. I built a new grandstand . on ITnvward field. I built a new basket ball pavilion. I laid the plans for a grand and glorious Student Union building, t established a strong and efficient athletic department, yea much stronger than any other de partment. My athletic staff is paid better wages than any other staff in the school. The glory of the ath letes is world wide. T have equipped the young with enthusiasm to go out into the world and become lead ers of men. I did away with many ef vonr crude and primitive tradi tions. I freed the thoughts of stu dents of fear and superstition. They face the facts and know. I did for our Alma Mat,or what none of you ! did before,” The spirits of the former classes j sat silent with troubled eyes. At [ last the spirit of the class of 187f*: spoko for all: “We all spoke proud ly when we came here in the flash of our deeds, and you more proudly than we all. But as we sit and think of our past deeds, shame and guilt bear down our pride. Your words sound as if the university had realized its aim. Is it true that it has? You spoke proudly of your basketball pavilion but you said nothing about a new library. Is there no need for a now library? You said you laid plans for a Stu-, lent Union building but you said nothing about a new zoology or 1 botany, or physics building. Is there no need for a new building for these departments? You spoke of vour! strong efficient and well paid ath letic staff, but you said nothing about any other departments and their staffs. Are they all removed from the university? If not, need! they not be as strong and efficient and well paid as your athletic de-1 partment? You boast of the glory j of your athletics, but you say noth ing about your students. Are there no students in the University? You equipped the young with enthusiasm for leadership. But is their enthus iasm accompanied with knowledge® You diil away with many crude tra ditions, but have you done away with the crude treatment of the; TkSEVEN , SEERS THE BEAVER HAS AN AW FUL WALLOP IN HIS TAIL WE ALL KNOW BUT CAN HE STRIKE THE DUCK DOWN? • • • TOO MUCH Sophomore: “I just lost two pounds playing handball.” Frosh: “How much is that in American money?” # * # Said Art Larsen to Bill James as they looked over the Beauty candidates: “There’s some big Bel loni between you and I‘ ” • • ■* Shed a tear for little Nell The poor rum-runner’s daughter.

Time: Night—The above picture gives all of these tilings in the freshman class? You freed the stu dents of fear and superstition, but are they free to study the things they love best?” As the spirit of the class of 1926 listened to the words of the class of 1879, his head sank to his breast. “ \ our shame is already upon me. I'he necessities of other departments are neglected for the sake of the athletic department. The staffs of all departments with the exception of the athletic are underpaid and overworked. The need for a new library becomes greater daily and the necessity for a Fine Arts build ing and a biological science build ing is paramount. The value of edu cation which was placed, in former times upon philosophy, literature, science, and art, is now being placed on sports. The freshmen are still subjected to the traditional hum iliations. Students are required to take subjects they despise; they h.a\e little chance to exercise their reasoning powers; their enthusiasm is only momentary; the chief part of their daily conversation is de voted to athletic events. Give me a seat among you and let me think why it is so.” The others turned to the spirit of the class of 1879, “Your prom ised educational reformation is long in coming.” "But it will come,” he replied.
