Kiglit platoons hearing rifles and led oy iniifornied oi j'ieers carrying dress swords displayed (lie training which they have received dining this year. So begins a story in this morning s issue of the I'anerald relative to the first display of the most modern methods of warfare in which the students of the University of Oregon are, somewhat unwillingly, be ing instructed. i3h veil or twelve years ago such a display as appeared yes terday on Kincaid would have caused t he heart of. eVery by-[ slander to heat a little faster at the thoughts of his country and her military glories. Such a display and such thoughts were entirely appropriate then. But it has been more than ten years since the allied gov ernments signed the treaty of I peace with the central powers] Since that time the League of Nations and the World Court,1 institutions thus far successful and with infinite possibili ties, have been organized. Since that time there have been nu merous disarmament confer ences. and all ot' the major na tions of the globe have signed the Kellogg treaty renouncing war as i solution for diplo matic questions. And here at Oregon, as in every other state in the union, tlm government goes ahead with the training of soldiers and Officers on a scale un thonght of in the days before the war. According to 1he in estimable O. S. 0. Barometer, there are now in the country (•0,1)00 officers commissioned from t Ik> li. (). T. ('.. and more ale being added at the rate of 10.000 a year. This is in addi t ion I o t hose who receive t heir commissions through work in the National (luard or in the regular army. It should also hi> borne in mind that these are officers, not common sol diers. The force of men which t hey could t rain for act ion up on short notice would far ex ceed in number all of the Am erican soldiers under arms dur ing the late conflict with (ler liiauy. To what end is all of this? Tilt1 military training is foreed upon tlu> youths of the Aiiut iean i-ollcfrcs am! universities on tlm til eon that war is in evitable, that beeiuise it has occurred in the past it must reeiir in the future. The whole military system is based upon the theory that mij'lit makes rijfht that the iustinet id' fear is stronger as a perserver of peaee than the instiuet of friendship. Isn't it about time that the I’nited States try to attain some measure of consistency iii her actions? She promotes anti-war pacts ami disarma ment conferences, and at the same time builds new naval cru isers and trains reserve officers rate of more than lO.OOt) a year (in the plea of “reasonable preparedness. Will history see a repetition of tlie “reasonable prepared ness” of France and England and Germany up to and inelud ing 19.14? Traitors To Tradition TTKADITIONS are only cus toms which run no chance of becoming habits. To follow tradition always requires a con scious effort, and while the training for tin1 will is not to be despised, yet requiring such unnatural things is only an other great big box-ear full of hokum. (That may not be spelled correctly, but liOak um by another spelling is still hockum!) It \s a modern superst it ion that we should tip our hat to the flag as if we were making obeisence to an idol, contrary to specific instructions from the good book. We shout cour ageous slogans and battle great and bloody encounters for the gain of Wall street -and call such a tradition, patriotism. All that needs to be done is to declare war, and more young men trod the same endless roads with the same light shin ing in their eyes, and the same myth in their minds. Here on the Vumpus it is! less serious as a ride, although the cry of war will leap fran tically into staid classrooms and whisk away the best of the lot. Hut ordinarily our tra ditions are only such little, j needless things as a rule that we shouldn't date at games, when the eo-eds are just as en thusiastic and just as hearty rooters as anyone else; and such nonsense as restricted smoking areas and the hunch of “thou sludt nots" or “thou slialts " which have been en forced through a mean little trick of labeling them “Tradi-j lions." Then, you see, if you break them you are a traitor . . . whereas if you break the rule to the same effect you would be nothing more than a trailer of the other countless lawbreakers. It s a smooth systcm . . . and prefix darn clever. !kiil\ Northwestern. WHAT . They Say l’Uo!'l'!Ul.\ logulatoil (hh)I-i I' HI lit is Uti| ;t luooiloi* of uritriu.

By OSBORNE HOLLAND Dick Bnrtheltness stole a lead on AI JolSon in liis new talking vehicle “Weary River,’* now at the Mc Donald, by sitting down at the Steinway and singing a few melo- ; dies for his appreciative audience. \ And his voice is just as delightful as liis acting, quite surprising in fact. Betty Oompson is Dick’s lead ing lady and faithfully portrays the steadfast sweetheart, so universally desired hut so seldom found. Although “Weary River” is only another underworld story, the in troduction of Barthelmess’s .croon ing voice lifts the picture entirely out of the ordinary crook drama class and gives it a new trademark. William Holden, the famous char acter actor from the New York stage, is cast as the prison warden who reforms the hero and lie injects the much needed deeper note to the story. There is an infinite variety of entertainment in “Weary River,” and even though it doesn’t rank with the really great screen produc tions, still it surpasses by far most films or its type.
