' ' Tho president of a large restaurant nssocintion de clares that people eat faster than they did 25 years ago. The counter lunch and the cafeteria have brought alwut fast service, bringing food and eater together without May. This effects considerable time-snving for patrons , and enables restaurants to take cure of more patrons during H'fciven time. ., . : '' 1 Along with quick service of food came quick consump tion of it. The man eating nt the counter lunch felt the niecd in the atmosphere and took to gobbling his viands. So, too, did the woman. So far as eating faster simply means more efficient service, it is a fine thing. Where it means also nervous haste in eating tiie 'food, it is bad for the speedy eatei-s and indirectly for their families nnd their business. Women UHPd to nay Ihpy had nolhlliK 10 wear and it wan n joltp. Now It iRulmoxi tli truth. JURORS TAKE CASES TODAY (ContlnuPd from Pare 1) IOWA VOTERS AT THE POLLS (ContlntiPd From Pane 1.) ROOZB AT OUR COLLEGES? Writing in lighter vein, wo might say that now we undei-stand what a great many college boys are learning to do with some of their Dad's money and with their time. This may also apply to our jazz-mad co-eds. "The great American college campus votes 'wet,' uccord iiig to the results of n prohibition poll by 7311 students of 37 representative American colleges and universities,", says n news dispatch. "Ninety-two percent of the students par ticipating expressed dissatisfaction with the present prohi bition situation and fi.T per cent voted in favor of modifica tion or repenl of the 18th amendment." The poll was tabulated at the University of Chicago. The ballots were sent out by what represented itself as "The Proportional Itepreseritation League." : ; Seriously, however, we add that the action of those 7311 students cannot possible represent the sentiment of all col lege students, but it casts a shadow on every American scat of learning. The number of students voting "wet" on this college poll were no different than the voters in a municipal or stale election who want something put over. The agitators vote and the rest, not particularly affected so far as they can immediately reckon, stay away from the polls. Wonder how our Oregon colleges voted? Tho fact that tho University of Chicago countenanced such a prohibition poll may explain to a grout extent why so many of Chicago's young men nnd young women become bandits and learn to kill. There never was a time when the youth who participated at wild bonze parties did not loam a little more of deviltry than he knew before. Cer tainly no college ought contribute to such a condition. crulitrd u iIppIhIoii. tho pump of ciiarlpa W.
