Mildred Laurence. On Being a Scholar JIl NOTED psychologist in Cleveland, Ohio, has given the fol lowing requirements of a scholar: Understanding and appreciation of other races and cultures contemporary or remote. Ability and disposition to weigh evidence in controversial matters. Ability and disposition to mentally project an undertaking through its successive steps before undertaking it. Skill in explanation and prediction. Ability and disposition to look beneath the surface of things before passing judgment. Ability to do reflective thinking. Disposition toward continued study and intellectual cultiva tion. Critical and questioning attitude toward traditional sanctions. Clarity in definition. Discrimination in values in reacting to. environment, social and physical. Analytical approach to propositions leading to the detection of fallacies and contradictions. Ability and disposition to observe accurately and systemati cally. Understanding and skill in the use of processes of induction, deduction and generalization. The ability to see relationships and accuracy in their inter pretation. A freshness of interest with respect to the developments of knowledge. After reading this long list of somewhat complicated require ments, says the Washington State Evergreen, it seems that to be a scholar must be practically impossible. However, upon sec ond reading, it appears that a fair amount of intelligence, a slight amount of ambition, the desire to learn and understand, and a large amount of good common sense have a lot to do with it. We second the motion. Can a Shadow Strike? \ NEW attackUpon the educational institutions of the United “*■ States is launched by Edwin Marshall Hadley in a little book called “T. N. T.,” just recently brought to our attention. The book is intended to “blast from our educational institutions the propaganda that seeks to undermine patriotism, religion, the economic structure, and the government.’’ The author has no difficulty getting under way in his as sault. In the preface he finds the sinister shadow of Commu nism casting gloom over the world. An extinguished flame over the grave of the unknown French soldier under the Arc de Triomphe in Paris; a missing wreath from a hallowed spot in Westminster Abbey; the failure to conform with a time honored custom and read George Washington's Farewell Ad dress in the last Congress these three events aie testimony of the grave situation in the world. Says Mr. Hadley: “Our educational institutions are perme ated with anarchistieul ideas that, should they take further hold, will plunge our civilization into the same abyss that has en gulfed all former civilizations that have ignored and neglected the warnings. We have permitted Anarchy to lift its head under the mistaken guise of open-mindedness, liberalism, toleration, uud their synonyms. The downfall of education started when Socialism and Communism were introduced into our educational institutions.” With all the fervor of a Ku Kluxer fighting for "the sanctity of our homes and 100 per cent Americanism.” the writer pursues his subject. He quotes all : orts of Eminent authorities to prove his points among others being the late Chief Justice Taft, and Charles Evans Hughes, the present chief justice of the supreme court, it all is intended to prove that many of the professors in our educational institutions are being paid lo spread the doc trines of Communism by organizations backed by "immense funds” who are seeking to overthrow the government. The conclusions of Hadley are so far-fetched that the book can hardly be given serious thought. The only thing to say is that it is the most Insidious bit of propaganda we have seen for some time. As propaganda, it is a dangerous book, packed with dynamite. The wholesale charges flung at the educational institutions are so preposterous as to be beyond consideration by anyone at all acquainted with the situation but for the more gullible, those people that made the Ku lUux Klan such a power lor a time, the book will seem prompted by a tine patriotic spirit, and damning in its veracity. If the veteran’s organization mentioned on the title page lias no connection with the book, it should step forward and clear itself it once. For the dissemination of such mis-infonnation can hardly b- considered in the light of .1 great public service. LEMON ♦ ♦ PALOOKA How was breakfast this morn ing ? . . .

EMERALD WORKERS TO MISS GRATKE AT PRESS (Continued from rage One) entire staff when I express our regret over Bill's decision to leave us,” declared Thornton Shaw, man aging editor. "He won the respect and friendship of us all and has always been willing to cooperate with us no matter how wild our ideas. We wish him a world of luck in his new job.” Upon being informed that the friendly compositor had taken a steady job on the Register-Guard, Doug Wight, chief night editor, exclaimed, “It surprises me, but hurray for Bill. He needs the steady work. We’ll surely miss him, though. We couldn't get any body better and more willing to help us out of tight places.” / The Heart Bomb Of Aunt Eppie Dear Aunt Eppie: I just got home from my girl's house and I have a very urgent problem for you to decide for me. She wants me to go on another walk-out with her, going to “Mid way" this time instead of Thurs ton. I still have a very vivid rec ollection of the last walk-out, so I come to you for advice. Painfully, “Frisco" Mearl. Dear Frisco: You are putting me in a very bad place by asking me to decide in such a “touchy” matter. The idea of going to “Midway" instead ^ of Thurston is very good, because I hear that the Thurston constable is a very hard man to deal with in such matters. I would suggest that you don’t go at all unless you have a very strong love for wood parties. In sincerity, Aunt Eppie.
