At Last Registration
Editorializing Pleasant
lion have become so near
ly traditional in the Em
erald that we sometimes won
der ,'what would happen if the
editorial staff should, in the
first issue of some term’s paper,
make the unpardonable blun
der of failing to re-open the
question. We shall make no
such blunder; and not because
we fear the violation of tradi
tions, but because for the first
time in remembrance (lie task
of writing such an editorial is
pleasant.
No one who wont through
the mill of registration in fall
and winter terms could avoid
seeing the difference that the
few changes effected this week
made in speeding up the pro
cess.
There were no long ♦ iiumonie
waits in lines that had no end,
no playing hide-and-seek with
professors hidden in dim nooks
and crannies about the cam
pus. The handling of registra
tion material was speedy and
efficient, more than 2,000
pieces having been distributed
without haste or congestion in
the men's gymnasium before
noon Monday. McArthur court
was orderly and the arrange
luen of checking stations made
to attain a maximum of accur
acy and speed. The entire stu
dent body was accommodated
easily in one day, and tile time
required of the individual stu
.dent was cut from several
hours to less than one. The
whole process displayed excel
lent organization.
Perhaps the system is not
yet perfect, but with the start
made, registration should no
longer be the dreaded period of
torture that it once was.
koine ot the more diligent
readers ol the JOmerald may
remember that on October t’l,
JbLeS, the I'hnerald suggested!
that the university udmimistru-i
tion adopt a plan almost idea
tieal to that which was this
term put into effect. We should |
like to take credit for the al
teration, but in fairness we I
cannot. The credit is due JSarlj
M. I’allelt, registrar, who at
the time of our suggestion had
already — unknown to us — j
evolved a similar scheme. At
that time there seemed little)
possibility that the plan would
go into effect, at least for
some time, and if the Emerald
played any part in bringing
about the change it was merely
in keeping the situation alive.
Which brings us back to the
fact that editorials on regis
tration have become nearly
traditional in the Emerald.
Censorship in
Canada
Another college editor
has been dismissed for
writing candid editor
ials and another campus has
been split apart over the ques
tion of censorship. The epi
demic of editorial dismissals
has visited Canada and depriv
ed Mr. L. <1. Ryan, a senior at
the University of Toronto, of
his job.
As usual, differing interpret
! ill ions of the duties of (lie col
lege editor lie at the bottom
of t he trouble. Because lie
capped a series of outspoken
editorials with a frank discus
sion of what one student news
paper called the “obiquitous
practice of petting,” Mr. Iiyan
was deposed by a student gov
ernment, which, it seems, was
driven to the action by the
governing body of the univer
sity. Thereupon All-. Ryan, who
appears to be a very militant
young man, raised the issue of
a genuine student government
in conjunction with that of a
tree newspaper, llis ease was
championed by the Toronto
levelling Telegram, which gave
over a section to the deposed
editor and his staff.
The student senate elected a
new editor and a new staff.
I’lie students signified their
distaste for this “slrikebreak
dig ’ sheet by making a bon
I ire id it on I lie campus. And<
alter a period of deadlock,
t a put. a body composed id'
several deans and the univer
sit\ president, stepped into the!
controversy and promised to;
make a thorough investigation!
ot the entire question of stu
dent government.
'bulging 1 rom the amount of

papers, amt by the impassioned
editorials in behalf of the edi
tor, censorship in one college1
has become an event that every
college journalist views with,
alarm.
Drippings From
Hie Keg Spigot
- By MIKE GRIFFIN -—
SIXTY SECONDS
Max Boclenheim
Believe it or nut, this novel eov
era only one minute of a man’s life;
it’s the lust minute, true, but only
one. The hero is condemned to
death and is about to be led to the
hot squat—of course he thinks buck
over the happening* of his life, and
of these this ouc-chapter book con
sists.
It isn’t u new idea—far from it,
hut it’s nevertheless true. Once
when 1 was very young, uiy mother
caught me partly in the cookie jar,
and I know 1 did a hasty autobiog
raphy then and there. The events
of the condemned man’s life stand
out clearly and ru detail ui krr1
mini! because of death's proximity,
am! tlio author gives tlietn to you.
Mnittll wonder that they are so
distinct, t in1 prescript ion for his
life would road: “Take as many
women of all kinds as may bo com
fortably xi|iioozod into ono small
life, and mix thoroughly. Tako one
botoro and at tor moals, before going
to bod and upon arising.”
llo gets several difforont jobs, of
course, for ho Jiad to oat, and ho has
other incidental experiences, but the
important chapters of his life are
female. 11 is affairs ha ye different
outcomes—-one, his first, is his
awakening; another, his last, is the
cause of liis death.
The pure account ofjiis life is in
teresting, ljut evc.rs now amt then
the reader stubs liis too over a little
insert of the author's, who seems to
have a guilty conscience a ud is tr\
ing to protect himself from critics.
1 hose apologies arc childishly oh\i
ous— Come "it, critics, rail against
it ... . say it isn’t realism . . . .
but I say it.” Evidently afraid to
let his novel stand oil its own feet,
he had to butt in and prop it up be
forehand. No so very intelligent,
Mr. Bodenheim.
Oh yes. The novel has a mission,
loo. This book is to free the world
from all falsity toward sex. The
author is very stongly against the
stork story, which I think is cute.
WHAT . . .
They Say
«'TTM1K WOMAN who will st?al
away the husln/hd of her
fnen<\ is a scoundrel. She 'should
be branded as a thief, but no wom
an, no matter how much of a vamp
or a flirt, can steal a husband un
less lie wants to be stolen. The
husband is most to blame in a love
triangle.”—Ttev. Hassell I!, Brough
er in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
All AHA DEKEKT tribesmen
kJ are more hospitable than New
Yorkers, A stranger in the desert
may rely on being received, feasted
and entertained for at least three
days. . . As American civilization
grows older it will lose its hustle
and bustle and settle down to a
more calm state such as the Sahara
wanderers lend.”—Dr. lingo C. M.
Wendel, traveler, in the New York
World.

An empire hung on that strap
THE hitch must be right, the pack must
ha tight. On details such as that hung
the attainment of the day’s goal and the final
success of the expedition.
Eevvis and Clark, first Americans to cross
the continent, knew the importance of
“trifles” in the concerted plan. They saw to
it their equipment was right, they supervised
every step from man-power to pack-horse
power, they applied sure knowledge and
constant vigilance to their task.
Today’s leaders in business have the same
point of view.
Men in the Bell System, exploring new
country, take infinite pains in preparation.
They work toward the smooth coordination
of engineering, manufacturing, warehousing,
accounting, finance, public service.

But who wants a
fairly good egg r
When his Lordship the Bishop asked his guest
how he enjoyed the breakfast egg, that timid
—but always truthful—young curate replied:
"Parts of it were excellent, sir!”
Now isn’t that just like saying that such-and
such a cigarette is mild? Mildness in tobacco
is not to be despised, but is it the tie plus ultra,
the summum bonum, the ... in plain tnglish. is
that all you ask from your cigarette? We
think not.
Take Chesterfield’s mildness for granted,
and get the full relish of its rich, real taste
under your tongue. That’s its difference from
the common run — all the difference between
plus and minus. Chesterfields are mild . . . and
yet they satisfy!
