OUT OUR .WAY
By WILLIAMS
'-When the Highway Commission oils the stretch of the
Old Oregon Trail between Lone Tine and Union we will
have a taste of what motorists experienced this side of
The Dalles some weeks ago.
Think of the thousands of dollars that Los Angeles
;)ytll have to spend in advertising to counteract the impreci
sion given Mystic Shrine delegates from .ill over the nation
when it rained during the convention hist week! it's most
"unfortunate ! And most "unusual!"
The Vacation Bible School parade yesterday was an im
pressive thing. It helped the city visualize the holpl'ui
influence that Bible training and supervised recreation can
have on four hundred little tots whose future habits and
ideals are now being established. There is no question
itbout the value of that influence.
j THINKING IS BAD BUSINESS.
- In a poll of the United States .Senate taken by The New
ilYork Times recently as to how its members felt on tho
'.Dawes plan to change Senate rules, Senator lUcNary is
Quoted as' follows: "I don't ' care' to discuss this DavcJ
1 business at this time. But I will say that I don't think
it will get very far." If this i$ the complete and exact
wording of the interview, Mr. McNary used one too many
sentences in replying to The Times' query, lie is at
perfect liberty to refuse to discuss "this Dawes business"
tint! he is equally free to think that it won't "get very far,"
;but the senator made a mistake in expressing that thought.
It. smacks somewhat of ignorance and a senator, above all
'people, should guard against displays of ignorance. 1 LV:
'possible, of course, that Mr. Dawes won't "get very fai"
with his proposed changes in senate rules, but our know
ledge of the way the vice president formerly handled his
business affairs in Chicago, the A. E. 1-'. purchasing bureau
in France, the U. S. budget in Washington, and the re
organization of peace demands and Gorman finances in
'Kurope would tend to make us believe that the whole prob
lem will be advanced a good bit farther than some of th"
members of the Senate may believe now. Dawes is hi
office for four years and will devote just about IS months
!of that time to the job of getting more efficient rules al
'.work in the Senate, if it takes that long. And those who
know Dawes have a wholesome respect for his ability to
l.ccomplish things. This is one of the things he has sc..
(lit to accomplish, and it must lie remembered that the
personnel of the Senate today may change somewhat by
'the lime Mr. Dawes retires from office- some of the
changes being influences no doubt by the energy and sin
cerity of the vice president. So Mr. McNary's prediction
as to what will happen to the Dawes plan is a hit ill-timed.
The support that Dawes has won from such men as Sena
tors Pepper, Cummins, Capper, I'udeiwood, Kdgo, and oth
ers is to be reckoned with, and though a majority agains1
the proposed changes is .now easily I'orcasted, lime aloiu
can tell whether they will remain outcast.

this Is the ideal of Die College-That-N-io-e.
which is He; nam"
u'ien the new Texas Technological
college hy its first president. I Or.
1. W. Morn.
The college In heing" frullt lo
niiet Die demands of this vast sec
tion for a public Institution ol' gen
eral higher learning. The legisla
ture appropriated J I .tilili.imi) and
the citizens of Lubbock chipped In.
at a low price. I'lion acres of the
I plains to start ll on its way. -The
first buildings are now about com.
pleted and the college expects lo
open lis doors for freshmen and
'sophomores next September.
In a new country , and wjth a
j new school, lr. Horn hits se ouf
j to build hat he believes Is a brand
!of college. As a warning' of what
he expects to make it, he has Is
sued what he calls some "Jlorn
herseys." First of all he proposed lo the
board of directors that (ireek let
ter fraternities be excluded. and
the hoard promptly adopted the
proposal. There is to he no ha.lng
of rreshmen at Ihe new school. No
one is to be summarily dismissed
because of poor scholarship, but
the school Is gointf to attempt to
adjust itself to the needs of the
student und find a place for him.
Ir. Horn said. The present system
of dismissing about one-third of
t he freshmen class ami sending
t hem home hopeless failures, is
"indefensible and well-nigh crim
inal," he declared.
"Manly Men." F.te.
The faculty is to be composed of
"manly men and womanly women,
above pettiness, strife and Jealousy,
giflcd wllh the the ability lo get
along in the little world of the
college and in the great work out
side." With the idea of adopting the
buildings to their particular pur
pose and lo the climate and his
torical background of the section,
the old Spanish type was selected.
On hazing. Or. Morn said:
"The real trouble is not that the
freshman 's paddled, but that he
la paddled because he Is a fresh
man, The men who Inflict the
punishment are really injured
j more than I he freshman because
j the idea of class distinction is in
stilled into their minds even more
'strongly than into the minds ol
the freshmen.
"It is possible to have a college
for American youths of such a na
ture that no clear-cut social lines
, will be drawn between the fresh
men and the upper classmen".
I Many college presidents say thai
( it is not, Al any rate, the Ccdlege
, That-Is-to-lle aspires to be a eol
1 lege of I hat particular type. It
believes that the face of America
is set against arbitrary class lines,
and that the face of the American
college should be set against them.
"it should be the policy of a cob
'lege in a democracy not to build a
j fence around it in order to keep
out folks who want to enter, hut
! rather to build" steps up to it In
! order that those may ('titer who
desire to do so and can profit by
doing- so."
