OUR POLICY

' The editorial policy of a college paper, depending so largelyupon whatever ideas or ideals its editor may possess, of necessitychanges annually . No part of its policy may be guaranteed a per -anal for longer than a year, and by no means for that length, if i tprove unacceptable to the all-powerful, the much-named Studen t

Body .For this year, then, we would say that, subject to the approva l

of our fellow-students, we interpret our responsibility as one demand-ing an independent attitude on affairs both within and without ou rwalls .

It is our intention, however, though the maintenance of an inde-pendent policy may occasionally prevent us from wholly agreeingwith the views of the Students' Council or other governing bodies ,at all times to guard against advocating conduct which woul dendanger the prestige of student self-government . Vontinuing ourclaim for independence, however, we intend not to be awed by th espectre of a . money-lending taxpayee, and we will advocate additiona lqualities in ourselves, as students, than that of dutiful grammarian .

In the final analysis, it is our earnest hope that our columns wil lat all times mirror the opinions of the majority of thinking studentswithin our University .

LETTERS TO THE UBYSSE YBeginning with the next issue, the Ubyssey will adopt the policy

that all letters appearing in its correspondence columns bear th eactual names of the writers . Communication not accompanied b ysignatures for publication will be filed in the waste paper basket .

In order that this arrangement may prove satisfactory, it isnecessary that our readers hear one thing in mind .

It is absolutely essential that no disrespect be shown by anyone siudent to any other because of the latter's published opinions .

If what any student has to say through the columns of this paperbe adjudged sufficiently pertinent by its editors to be printed, then

the student who thus broadcasts his message must be given the justiceof ordinary respect by his fellows, no matter how unpopular hi sviews may be at the time ,

We are moved to point out this "must" from experience in pas tyears, when ultra-conservative elements within the undergraduatesociety found ways to make it unjustly disagreeable for one or tw owho had expressed unpopular, yet, as it proved, very sane views

through the Ubyssey .Treat the letter-writer justly, and he will not find it necessary to

take refuge in Latin, which, in the words of Browning's Bishop i s"Ulpian at the best . "

THOSE GREEN BANDSThe Freshman class as a whole is to be congratulated on the goo d

'sportsmanship which it has shown in carrying out the rules and regu-lations of its initiation ; but, as usual, the majority must suffer for th esins of the few. Why these few offenders persist in refusing to wea rtheir green ar ► a•hand$, when the benefits accruing therefrom are s oobvious, is a mystery, For one thing eol► sider how many horriblefaux pax are avoided. Freshies recognize their own classmates as such ,and do not ask casual acquaintances "it' they are in first year toot "

when the said acquaintances are probably seniors or gradiratett. (Wespeak with feeling on this point, remembering vividly our own firstyear, before the days of green Nimbi . )

%iThen the Frosh of today have become the Sophomores of tomor-row, they will have no difficulty in seeing why the class of '30 shoul ddo thoroughly ail that is required of them. it is, a pity that there ar ea few who are not broad-minded enough to apply the same reasoning t otheir own case .

THE UBYSSE Y

ROSES AND RUBBISH' There is an old saying : "A rose by any other name would smel l

as sweet, " which by judicious turning and twisting may be converte dinto the following : "A university student in whatever place he may be ,will act the same ." Although this form of the proverb may not be a spoetic, it is quite as accurate, and at least has the advantage of bein gcapable of proof.

For example : when the University of British Columbia was in itsold home in Fairview, the students had a tendency to feel they were anadmirable University body in totally unworthy surroundings, Bein gfirmly, and quite correctly, convinced of this they did not in any wayattempt to take proper care of their campus. And the best way theundergraduate had of venting his spleen on the innocent buildings fornot being "marble halls," was by throwing all waste paper at randomabout the grounds. Even our numerous editorials felled to remedy theevil,

Now the University is in its New Ilome, as the students have un-donhte(tly heard before, and the Now Home has been found to beworthy even of the University of British Columbia. But, and herocomes the proof of the above proverb, the students have continued t oact as though they were still in the old Fairview Shacks, Evidentl ythe senior years are hound by the "iron chain of habit," and the fresh -man class is peeved to think that it was hover in a valid postion t olaconically throw refuse about the college precincts . At any rate ,whatever the cause, the new grounds are at present littered with lunc hpapers, apple cores, east-off LJbysseys and the remains of hot-dogs .This is bad enough, but the height of the offence is reached when theBotanical Gardens are used as a waste paper basket .

In future this untidiness must stop. Refuse baskets have beenplaced at intervals about the campus for the use of the students, and itis up to them TO SEE TIIAT ALL WASTE IS PLACED IN THEM ;AND TIIAT ON NO ACCOUNT IS IT TO BE THROWN ANY -WHERE ABOUT THE CAMPUS ,

teacher is called, not to attend to themoney stuff but to supervise the sou lstuff. "

Pursuing this line of thought thespeaker went on to show that the ai mof the teacher was not only to educate ,but also to cultivate the youthfu lmind. Culture is the necessar ycounterbalance of scientific education .The all-round man must have both .

Address to Classics Student sDr. Rendall also addressed a smal l

audience in the Applied Science build-ing Tuesday noon . Ho spoke for thebrief while at his disposal on classicsand their value in present day educa-tion and life. It is regrettable tha tsuch a number of students missed s oexcellent, so humorous and so learne dan address as the few discriminatin gmembers bf the University who at-tended were privileged to hear ,

The speaker first referred to hislife-long sympathy with Greek an dLatin . He called them "gymnasticapparatus", the basis of a sound edu-cation. This education, ho said, ha dproved better when put to trial in th ewar than the special education i nnaval colleges such as Dartmouth an dOsborne where Latin and Greek arenot taught. Public school boys, boy swho had learned Latin at least an dpossibly (creek, were equally as apt ,equally as practical as naval collegeboys .

Dr. Itendall said that he for onedenied that tt study of elastics wa sIncompatible with the study of anyscience . Latin, he said, was as scien-tific and as rigidly exact as the line sof a Roman temple . A groundwor kIn classics, In his opinion, could profit -ably precede thorough work i nscience .

After making reference to the for-mer vogue for Latin, the speakertouched on the spurious "Courier La -tin" before passing to the present sta-tus of Latin in England . No longer i nEngland is Greek dreamt and Lati nverse written . Although the classic sare still prominent In elementary edu-cation, science is gradually becomin gmore important .

Dr. Rendall said, however, that h ehoped the day might never come whe nclassics will have vanished from cur-ricula . Something, he was certain ,would be lost ; a source of mental die .cipline . Speaking with a hint o fhumor, Dr. Randall nevertheless wa sdeeply in earnest in his concludin gstatements : "Should such a tim ecome we would have lost u joy, atransient yet inherent joy ; the soundof centuries would have made inaud •Ible theta+ distant, articulate voicesof two vanished races, and that sprin gof learning would have run dry tha tmakes Milton Intelligible and for th efirst time opens Dante to the reader, "

A TRIBUTE TO THEHUDSON'S BAY CO.

The University owes a debt of grati-tude and appreciation to the Hudson' sDay Company for the interest whic hthat company has shown In Univer-sity affairs, by displaying, during th epast week, a beautifully decoratedwindow in connection with the inaug-uration ceremonies. The displayshowed Knowledge, portrayed by awoman dressed in flowing white robes ,seated by a table, with a scroll in he rland. In the foreground stood twouniversity students, turning in hom-age toward the figure of Knowledge .In the immediate forground were on eor two excellent pictures of the Uni-versity buildings, and a quiet an-nouncement of the inauguration cere-monies . We would like the compan yto know that we appreciate their In-terest in us, and their kindness i n"ringing this important occasion i nour university life to ..he public no .t'ce .

Intense Interest in"Outward Bound "

In their four years of existencethere has never been more unanimit yof opinion among members of theLittle Theatre Association as to th emerits of a particular play than ther eis over the production of "OutwardBound" on October 19 to 24 .

Here Is a play which seems to ful-fil the highest demands of the associ-ation . It is unusual to a degree ; i trequires a high standard of art t oproperly present it ; It calls for a con-siderable cast ; it combines comed yand the deeper questions of life nowand hereafter in a happy mixture and ,except for the enterprise of the LittleTheatre, it is Improbable that th epeople of Vancouver would be afford-ed any opportunity of seeing it .

Sutton Vane, whose first play i twas, has dealt with the difticult sub-ject of life after death in a manne rthat has brought him at one bound t othe forefront of playwrights . He hassucceeded in avoiding morbidity ab-solutely. Comedy and wit predom-inate in every scene .

Already a large number of new as -Etiolates and subscribers have beenadded to the Little Theatre's roll .More are needed, for the directorshave set the goal this year of a rol lof 2000 psid•up members and sub-scribers . To keep afloat, to constantl yadd expensive improvements to thetheatre Itself In the way of lightin gequipment and stage effects, and a tthe same time to give the people o fVancouver the highest claw of playa ,call for constant effort and carefu lfinancing by the Little Theatre .

Every lover of the Little Theatrecan assist by becoming a subscriber .

The subscription for the year i s$51,50, which entitles the subscriber t oa ticket at esah of five performance sand admission to a number of highlyinteresting private performances, Th enew aloe is at 542 Howe street ,

We notice that the satiric littl epoem, "Juetitia et Fat," has so fa rproved unanswerable to a certain pro-lific letter writer .

THE UNPARDONABLE SINThere was the sound of a step

mounting the back stairs to the door.Every dog knows his master's step;and Rollin knew that this was hi smaster coming home from work, Or .dinarlly he would have dashed ou tfrom behind the stove where he wa slying, to stand with the two childre nand wait eagerly for the door to open ;but to.night—to-night it was all differ .ent : deep down in his ilog heart hefelt it would never be like that again .The door opened and his master on .tared, but Rollin did not move, He la ythere quite still, his chin resting onthe floor, and his oyes full of unutter-able misery .

Rollin had committed the unpardon •able mine he had bitten a man, Jus tthat morning, shortly after his Waste rhad gone to work, and while his mis-tress and the children were still up •stairs in bed, a matt, quite heedless o fRollin's barking remonstrances, hadmounted the front stone. He was n oordinary man this : he was a blacksooty fellow with a high pointed hatand a long handled brush which h ecarried over his shoulder . Rollin hadnever seen anything like him before ,And then with the brush he had tap-pod lightly upon the door, This wasmore than the dog could stand, Ho wwas he to know what harm thi sstrange looking man might or migh tnot mean to his mistress and the child •ren inside. He sprang fiercely up at.him. The man stepped back, thre wout an arm to protect himself, and th edog's teeth closed on his hand, Th enext moment the door had opened an dhis mistress held him by the collar .

"Rollin ." It was his master callinghim. He moved out from behind th estove and went up to him, wiggling hisbody in a spiritless attempt to sho wpleasure . He felt quite sure that hismaster knew of hie, Rollin's, great of-tense . Indeed, he felt that all th emen, children, women, and dogs i nthe world must know about it. Themaster did know about it, too, for hi swife had just told him ; and now look-ing down at Rollin and resting hi shand on the shaggy head he merel ysaid' "Poor boy," then turned away .

They placed a supper ou Rollin' splate that night which was moretempting than usual, but he left I tuntouched and crept in behind th estove to resume his brooding. He laythere quite still except for an oc •caslonal long drawn breath which th echildren said sounded like crying .

It was a st r ange thing, this brood-ing, this deep-felt misery. He had re-ceived no severe upbraiding for hi smisdeed, and a psychologist might sa ythat as a clog he was incapable of un-derstanding that he had clone wron gat all, But it was not a case of tin•derstanding at all, it was just. an over-whelming sense of guilt which weighe dupon him, an Instinct, If you will ,which tilled him with misery and apremonition of iral+en(ling Ttweedy . Hefelt, perhaps, some early paga nwho, In a element of blind anger, ha drisen ttp trill shattered the , god whhic hhe had been taught to reverence fro myouth ,

When the family were half wa ythrough supper the telephone bel lran The master rose and went int othe other room to answer it . Aftera considerable length of time he c rim eback Into the kitchen, and Rollin list-ened to film speaking, He could nottell, of course, what it. was that hewas saying, but he heard his ow nname several times, and he cou l dsense a bad troubled ring In the voice ,which seemed somehow akin to hi sown misery . When the master finish-ed speaking, the little girl, who wa sthe older of the two children, starte dto cry . A while later she crept in be .hind the stove where Rollin was lyin gand sat there with her arm around hi sneck and her head resting upon his .He reached up once to lick her face ,then settled his chin on the floor and ,suci-eyed, resumed his brooding .

Rollin had never been accustomed t osleep In the house, but to-night hi sratter turned out the lights and lef thim there . His mistress hail looke dsadly down ar. hint ; and then she ha dturned her head quickly away ant igone upstairs .

Ifs did not move oul from behind th estole, but lay there In the same post .tiom, marine. elth . .'yed Into the dark

stairs . But, early as it was, they ha dnot been In the kitchen many minutesbefore a strange step sounded on th eback stairs . True to an insthict a sold as himself, the dog growled slight-ly, but he moved only enough to ge ta clear view of the door . When hismaster opened it he, Rollin, taw stand •ing there a man In uniform, a ma nholding something in his hand whic hhe had never seen before, a long ironImplement, one end of which reste dupon the floor .

The master called Rollin Over to hi mand fastened the end of a chain to hiscollar, The other end he handed tothe man in uniform, His mistress ,who was crying now, bent down an dpressed her head against his, an dwhen otter a moment she rtraighteneded up, the master bent down and fon-dled the dog's ears. He tried to spea konce, too, but Rollin could not catc hthe meaning in those words, for thevoice broke and died away in a mut •tared nothing . Then the master noddedto the man, who went out through th edoor . "Go on, Boy," said the former ,pointing, and the dog obeyed the pul lon the other end of the chain . Theydescended the steps and passed of fdown the lane . Once Rollin stoppedand turned around to look sorrowfull yback at the house, but the man jerkedthe chain and he trotted obediently o nagain.

It was early morning and the streetswere cold and deserted . All the win-dow blinds were drawn, and the hous.es, facing upon the road, looked as I tthey were sleeping like their inmates .Once a dog with whom Rollin used toromp In happier days ran out to greethim ; but the latter did not even lookat him, How could this friend of hi sown kind hold any place in a hear twhich was already overflowing wit hthoughts of a master, a mistress, andtwo children left behind? Left for-ever behind, he felt somehow.

After a while they passed out of th estreets and 'into a field with a tarn a tthe far end. Rollin knew the plac ewell . He had played there many atime with the two children and threeor four others from the same neighbor•hood . He used to chase the sticks on eof the boys would throw for him, andwhen they were playing at somethin gelse he would dig into the ground withhis fore paws, and bark, and bury hi snose in the cool damp earth . But hehad bitten a man, and that was al lover now .

They reached the barn, and the ma npicked up a shovel which was leaningagainst one of the walls, Then he le dRoll4n out into the middle of the fiel dand tied the end of the chain to astake which had been driven Into th eground upon some previous occasion .He laid the shovel on the ground ,walked back about thirty feet, an dplaced that strange looking object t ohis shoulder . A small boy with apaper bag came up unnoticed an dstood watching a few feet away .

To Rollin there was something terri-fying about this man standing therepointing that strange thing at him ,It gave him the same trembling feel-ing as had the dream he had dream tlast night . it would not do to howl ;ho looked away . Just to his right a lfoie feet off, he could see a small hol ein the groom l whteh he had ?lug wit hhis past; a law (Isis Wore. He ha dnot dug It alone lot' o .te of his child -ten, the little boy, had at there, h, .side hire helping . H+ . If kited the littl efellow was there now they could di git deeper,- -but no, he Rollin, wouldn' tbe able to dig any more now, for ther ehad been a loud report, and the sk yand the field had grown clerk,—andthe earth was sinking under him,—and his knees were too weak to hol dup his body, and—and— The smal lboy with the paper bag stepped for-ward and looked admiringly up at theofficer : "You're---you're a good shot ,ain't you?"

What the

CONSERVATIVE

PARTY

Offers You !

The Conservative Party submits to the voter s

of Canada a Protective Tariff policy as the most

feasible method by which to speed up industry

and solve out economic problems .

Canada's wages are established in the United

States, in part by International Labor Unions and i n

part by the old institution of supply and demand .

If wages are lower in Canada than in the

United States, Canadians go to the United States

to get higher wages, and Canada loses her popula-

tion. Thus, the United States fixes our basis o f

cost.

If we do pay the United States rate of wages ,

we can not produce our goods low enough t o

compete with European goods produced unde r

much lower wage scales and sold at depreciated

currencies .

Failure if we do, failure if we don't .

The result is that every farmer, every work-

man, every business man, every person contributin g

directly or indirectly to production in Canada, i s

working under a handicap that discounts his or her

efforts .

The United States can pay high wages because

they are protected by a tariff wall, and hiv e

thereby achieved mass production . They impose a

high tariff because they realize the necessity of

doing so .

That their policy is right is evidenced in the

fact that tinder a high tariff the population of th e

United States has increased from Ten Millions t o

One Hundred and Ten Millions, and given the m

a cash profit of $339,000,000,000 .

The United States tariff against Canad a

averages 60$, that which we hold against them i s

but 20%• This discrepancy not only bars ou r

products from their markets, while they are privi-

leged to come into Canada and sell in competitio n

with our own workmen, but it is also costing u s

over $200,000,000 annually .

It would therefore appear necessary for us ,

unless we are so fortified that we can ignore

natural and economic laws, that we raise our tariff

to a similar level as theirs .

It is the only way in which Canada will be

given a fighting chance .

GOOD TURNOUT ATS.C.M. MEETING

Judging by the large and enthust •estte gathering of students In Roo mA 206 last Wednesday noon, consider •able programs will be made by theStudents' Christian Movement at theUniversity this year.

Mr. Chas, Gibbed outlined th ealms of the movement, showing thenew members the eignifloanee of th eprogram which will be followe dthroughout the coming year .

A comprehensive report on th eactivities of last summer's confer .once camp at hlginhouse, Ont ., wassubmitted by Miss Gordon whose en •thuelasrn for S . C. M . work Is at alltimes so apparent. The speakerbrought home to those present th enecessity of earnest thought and con .sideratlon of the many problemswhich will confront the student stud ygroups . "Comparative effort," it wasurged, "is absolutely essential if re•suits are to be obtained! "

The election of ofticern resulted asfollows : Hon, Pres., Dr, Boggs ; Pros. ,Mr. Chas. Gabbard ; First Vice-Pres . ,Miss C . McQuarrte ; Second Vice -pres., Mr. R. Stedman ; Secretary ,Mies A, Moffat ; Treasurer, Mr. Fut .Witten; Publicity, Mr. Horton ; Bust.nose Convenor ; Miss Mildred Camp -bell .

•mA PEDOMETER MIGHT HELP

The visions of bicycles and mechan •!cal skooters, for purposes of tra yegging campus miles, In which the un •dergraduate Indulges from time t otime, would be, perhaps, not so bene-ficial it they materialized. Dr.George Kanouse of Newark, New Jerisey, declares that the average personleading a sedentary life should wal kthree miles a day. He says that "i twill prolong itfe, it regularly indulgedin . It is the simplest and most feas-ible form of exercise . "

There Is undoubted opportunity fo rthe student to cover the prescribe dthree miles . As a matter of fact, th eprobable explanation of our genera lrobustness is the tact that we do I talready.

Seven Honors Degrees

Conferred on Frida '

(Continued from Page 1 )men are supposed to be equal wemust remember that education, prim .ary, secondary and higher, are allnecessary it we are going to giveeveryone an equal chance, "This,"he said, 'has been and Is the aim . I fnot the practice, of Anglo-Saxo nthought, "

He counselled the people to hol dtheir institutions in reverence. "Awarrior that cannot look with re verenco upon his sword Is on the wa yto decay : the civilization that don no tregard its Institutions, both politica land educational, with reverence is onIts way to decay," To maintain theproper balance of the state we mus trespect both the Institution and th eindividuals, Communism and anarch yare not the remedies for existing ills .

"Man has many parts," he said ,"the mind is only one." Not onlymust we obtain knowledge, but alsoa sense of honor, an upright characterand a thirst for truth. "Democracyhas nothing to tear from truth . "

Hon. W . C. Nichol also emphasisedthe need of character development I naddition to mental development ."Character, and not education, i sfundamental . The human characte ris the one and only imperishabl ething in the world ." He paid a tributeto the teachers and professors of theProvince, whose example and har dwork have done much to make thegraduates of the University of Brit .lsli Columbia what they are .

Dr. MacLean, In his speech, wen tinto some detail regarding thesources of revenue of the University .In this enlightened age when highe reducation is meant for everyone, th euniversities are depending leas on thebeneficence of private individuals an dmore on the support of the state ."The University of British Columbia,"

'he said, "receives front the Provincia lGovernment about eighty per cent .of its total revenue. This amountsto some $460,000 annually for our.rent expenses ." The capital expendi-ture at the point has amounted tosome 23,000,000 which means a fur-ther expenditure of 1283,000 annuall yfor the retiring tund. Thus the lint •veralty is costing the Province In th eneighborhood of three.quarters of amillion each year. But It is worthit .

CONVOCATION

On Friday evening the University o fBritish Columbia for the first time i nIts history, entered Into the fulest ex-ercise of its scholastic powers, whe nIt conferred seven honorary degreesof Doctor of Laws (Honoris Causis )to seven of the most prominent mer,in the public eye today ,

President L . S .

Full Program ofDebates Arranged

Imperial Contest Promises to b eGreat Event.

This year the prospects for a sue•oessful debating season are perhap sbrighter than ever before . The Im-perial Debate should be an even great•l event than the Oxford Debate o f

t year, and it suitable arrange -Monts can be made, it should be aconsiderable financial asset as well .Arrangements for a debate wit hSouthern California are not yet cont .plated, but it will probably be a dualdebate, and will be held, it possible ,in the tall term. U. B . C, was fortu-nate, also, in receiving an offer t ocompete In the Prairie Debating Lea •

e. This will be a dual debate, too ,Cd will . likely be an annual event .Other contests planned are : twoFreshman•Sophomore debates wit hVictoria College, and a women's dualdebate with Puget Sound . The Vic•torte College debates are being ar •ranged by the Men's and Women'sLiterary Societies .

It will be seen from this progra mthat the number of debates with Can .Mien and American Universities I spractically the same .

Offers for debates have also beenreceived from the University of Ore -

gon and the University of Redlands ,

but unless other plans fail, it is im-probable that

U.B . C .

will be ableto accept them .

The approximate dates of the pro -posed debates are as follows :

1. Southern California, Nov. 20th.2. Victoria College (Men's), not yet

decided ,8. Victoria College (Women's), no t

yet decided .4. Prairie Debating League, Feb. 20th.

Editor The Ubyssey .Sir :

I wish to protest against the unfai rand unsportsmanlike attitude adopte dIn your editorial on American Rugbyin the Ubyssey of Oct . 18th.

In it, instead of giving a much need-ed boost to what you yourself admitis the coming game, you do your bes tto nullify the efforts of those publi cspirited members of the Universitywho are endeavoring to give it the ad -vantage of Intercollegiate sport .

it may be that some prefer the Eng-lish game, but is that sufflcieut rea rson for not giving the American gamea fair chance? There Is ample roomfor both .

One deplores narrow-mindedness I neveryday affairs ; Is it not every bit a sdeplorable in sport? The AmericanRugby players who are giving thei rtime and their best efforts to foste rIntercollegiate sport have need of al lthe encouragement that can be give nthem .

Some of the statements In your edi-torial are incorrect or give a wron gIdea. While we may be one-sixth thesize of the average American college ,the team which beat us so decisivel yon Saturday came from a college of800 students—not as big as our fresh -men class . We must, and will do bet.ter next time but we need the whole•hearted support of the students an dfaculty to do it ,

American Rugby will attract publicattention to the University . Manypeople, in no way connected with theUniversity have told me that theywere unable to go to Saturday's gam ebut that they followed it in the papersand would go to the next one .

American Rugby will boost the Uni.versity, the University ought to boos tAmerican Rugby ,

Yours sincerelyR. M. Williams .

Editor's Note—The editorial discus-sed did not give incorrect informatio nregarding the college in question . Theinsignificant size of the institution wasanother argument in favor of thestand taken.

R. P. McLENNAN

The Man and His Accomplishments

Born of sturdy Scotch stock in the town of Pictou,

Nova Scotia, R. P. McLennan early listened to the

lure of the West, arriving in Winnipeg in 1882 .

Spending two years there, he came to the Pacifi c

Coast, and arrived in Victoria in 1884.

With the indomitable courage so pronounced in

those early pioneers, he and Mr. E. J . McFeely forme d

the firm now known as McLENNAN, McFEELY

& CO., LTD., opening in Vancouver in 1886 . This

firm gives employment to over 200 persons and is on e

of the largest commercial houses in Western Canada .

In 1898 the firm decided to open a branch in

Dawson City, and Mr. McLennan went north to tak e

charge of the same. So respected was he by th e

citizens of the community that in 1903 he was chosen

as the mayor, and served his term with dignity and

ability .

He is a past president of the Board of Trade, a

Vice-President of the Exhibition Association, and a

Governor of the University of British Columbia .

For many years he has made his home in Burrard

constituency.

Always a patriot and a lover of the Union Jack,

during the war he gave his four stalwart sons to th e

Empire, the youn of whom paid the suprem e

sacrifice .

The faith and• vision which characterized his

pioneer efforts have not abated one whit . He has a

pride in the city's past, a courageous hope in its grea t

future, and, because of these, he feels it is in the bes t

interests of business that he offers his services to th e

House of Commons, at Ottawa, where he can wor k

for Vancouver and British Columbia .

A Criticism of"My Girl's a Hulabaloo" ..

The literary -editor-has warned methat, after my memorable article o fSit issue, I must Write another lest.my public forget me . i have, there •fore, prepared a critical survey of awell•knoWn ogllege• song , 'Rthh' the in •tentloh of assisting conscientiou sstudents to a fuller understanding o fits beauties and associations. Myaim In this work has been for scour •acy rather than elegance, though th elatter quality Is, of course, character.Istic of all my published works.

This is, In the Arta place, a lovesong of remarkably tender feeling ,Of the character of the under•gradu•ate's sweetheart, It is euMolent to saythat she is a youthful and lively co mpanlon (vide Infra) . Her raiment Isinvariably adorned with facings ofheraldic or and asure, by which th evarietry of the times might know tha tshe was attending a certain universityin company with divers others. Thostatement Is further made that whe non a walk or ramble, she was wontto beguile the undergraduate withfair speeches and merry railiery, towhich he responded with suitablecaresses,

As all my readers are familiar withthe text, notes on the same follo wwithout further quotation therefrom .

1 . Hullabaloo—Editors disagree be-tween "hulabaloo," and "hullabetlloo . "Careful reading of the evidencemakes "hullabaloo" the most prob-able. The origin of the word is ob •soure ; formerly it meant "riot," o r"panic," from which the transitionto "girl," indicating pride in her qual .'ties, is fafriy direct .

8. Varsity—A corruption of "uni-vereity," Prof. Drudger suggests thisterns was used to preserve the met-rical rhythm, It might be pointedout, however, that students at thistime were much given to abbrevia•tion : as Lab ., Pub., Lit., Chem., etc.

8 . Walking--In the first quarter o fthe twentieth century this was a com-mon form of exercise. According t oPoppelvitoh, it was usually acorn.Wished by placing one pedal extrem-ity in front of the other, the actionbeing sustained by the striding o fmutual feet . Snickelfritz disagrees ,

4. Talking—We may accept this a scorrect, J. Shadrow McHooey ob•serves • that in women, Brace's con-vo111tfon, governing the motor re-actions of speech has greater develop-ment than In men . It would, there -fore, as M . Camillard trenchantly re -marks, be reasonable to expect thewoman In question to do the talking,

5. Squeezing—This curious custo mwas observed in these times, by theencircling of the feminine torso wit hthe male brachial appendage, right orleft being used Indiscriminately or a twill . Prof. Jones claims to have foun dcases on record where both were usedsimultaneously ; Elinor Glyn agrees .There 1a little justification for theclaim that "squeezing" is used as abitter comment on the congested con-dition of the original University build •tugs .

Bolder---An early commentato rreads "colder" ; in a masterly essa yBogswnmpf points out that in the cuecuntstances descrI : ►ecl in the song, thi sstate of Increasing emotional frigidit yis psychologically indefensible . Thecomparative "bolder" is used becaus ein those times, it was popularly con-sidered that there were degrees o fboldness in women ,

Any freshman who has read th eforegoing will be, surely, Imbued wit ha more profound respect for a songwhich, on the surface, appears almos ttrivial . He will realize that the studyof poesy is one that will require al lhis attention If he would derive fro mit the buried treasures of knowledg eand philosophy contained therein .

If editors are still as they hav ealways been, another article in thi ssame vein, may appear. It is my pur-pose to assist the literary tyro until ,by my example, he may stand with meon Olympian heights ,

GHOSTS ?After Ibsen

(A Long Way After )

The moon shone down upon th egrassy campus of the University o fBritish Columbia. The ancient build .ings stood revealed in ghostly white •ness . Silence, silence everywhere ,The whistle struck midnight, the hou rof fate and mystery .

The lone student by the Arts build •ing shivered . He had come hither tomuse in quiet contemplation over thebeauties of Elizabethan literature andto gather inspiration for a sweet, sa dpoem to submit to the "Buzzer." Asthe last solemn note died away intothe stilly night, he trembled with a nindeacribale fear, like a freshma ngoing to an initiation.

What was that? A faint soun dreached his ears. He gazed wildlyaround. Nothing but silence, Hisaffrighted eyes were drawn to theAuditorium, What things were thos ethat moved so noiselessly? He crep ttoward them. Gleams of phospores-cent white appeared and re-appeared .Gradually they took shape . Theyhad the form of animals, but the out .lines of the buildings could be seenthrough their misty sides! Thethings turned toward him, and thei reyes gleamed green an they fixed o nhim a reproachful gaze .

Then a wave of guilty horror surge dover him, and he fled screaming. Hehad discovered the truth . They werethe ghosts of murdered dogs hauntin gthe site of the hot canine stand !

What Auto Be

Done At U.B.C.

A middle western college has adde dto its list of regulations the decre ethat no student regularly enrolledshall have the use of an automobil ewhile coming to or fro nuts campus ,or while upon the college grounds .

it is extremely unlikely that suc han order would be made at California ,where so many persons using mach •hem do so mainly for the purpose o fconvenient transportation to the Uni-versity and back to their homee, antinot primarily for pleasure . But tha tsuch an order might be desirable t othe point of being necessary would bereadily acceded to by members of th edepartment of the Berkeley polic eforce .

Intelligent Comparisons

Misuse of Knowledge

Now as Formerly

Cepyeight ISM by Nobody .

Sohopenhauer's smpirio essay dial .Ins In part, with the Intelligence o fwomen, has found scientific confirm .Mien. Men graduates of the U . B . C .It Is reported, rate 20 per cent . highe rin Intelligence than women graduate sof the same Institution. Little canbe said to controvert the finding ; butIt le regrettable that the average malewill take to himself a full 20 per cent .of intellectual credit. But it is surelydisquieting to think that men wor kon a 20 per cent. margin and no more.

•Knowledge in the mind of a ma n

who doesn't know how to use It Is asdangerous as a machine-gun In th ehands of a savage. Chemists and In .venters who give us chemical war•fare and death•dealing machines did .n't knew how to use their knowledge .A machine-gun Is civilized man' shighly efficient Instrument of destruc-tion; It Is the product of misuse dknowledge . So long as knowledge Isthus misused by us, the harmful ac-tivities of a savage form a feeble oem •panion for our own .

•Writing in 1571, James Molvlll says

of the effect of his education upo nhim "bet my judgment and under•standing was smared and dark, sathat the thing quhilk I got was mal ebe its r m• not. knowledge ." In theIntervening centuries, has this atti-tude of learning by rote rather tha nreason been discarded by the student ?Does the modern collegian adopt th ejudlolal turn of mind or does he dumb-ly accept from his texts a sort of pre-scribed mental diet? Evidently ,the power of the printed page is stil lgreat. There Is little expression o fIndependent thought among under -graduates at the U . B. C., as recentevents should make only too obvious.

Ask *bout the Varsity Spirit."Little pot, soon hot." Keep you r

temper . We don't need it .A soft head swells easiest.You may be good.looking, but don' t

tell anybody, Let it come as a gla dsurprise .

A pumpkln•head is more consplc •uoue than a bank president .

Good men have been thinking abou tthings a long time. You are no wgoing to start . Beware of easy solu •bony, Don't talk until you have don emore than a little thinking, You wil lhave leas to be sorry for afterwards .

If you are worthy, you will get ajob. Don't be an office-seeker,

Don't be a tool, with or without th eadjective .

Try to look like a gentleman an dact like one. This college I . judge dby tho appearance of its students .Don't play tennis in your waiet•coator braces. Avoid celluloid collar sand do not get the back of your nec kshaved. Thank you .

Take a goof: look at your trousers .They will probably be like that al ltheir lives, poor beggars .

Enthusiasm is the next best thingto brains . Some have both .

Class spirit cannot be made by th eexecutive alone, Throw in a handfu lof raisins and yeast yourself .

It you play games, or want to, tr yout for the teams. If you don't . don' tboast about It.

We are all tempted to be lazy.Don't imitate the rest of us by giv-ing in .

Some men come to college to get ,only. You get just about what yougive .

Most people can pass exams . Mae •teeing the subject is a different thing.

It you must wear spats, which isdoubtful, please dress up to them .

Overheating is unhealthful . Don'tworry about it here, though .

You may get the idea that you canget along without church . There aromany young fellbtve at college, wh oget that idea. Take a look at themand change your mind .

It you must go to the demnitio nbow-wows, don't blame the collegefor it . You know better .

Varsity has an honourable history .Get to know it. The future dependson you. How about it ?

It is unlucky to stand just at thefoot of the stairs .

You may have been quite a lion a tyour old high school, or your loca lY . M . C . A . or Sunday School . Weare glad it you were. But you are I na bigger zoo now, so don't be sur-prised if the crowd does not gatheraround your cage for a while yet .

Rowing Club to

Have New Course

At the meeting of the Rowing Clu blast Wednesday It was established b eyond a doubt that Varsity's 'cre wwould be a strong competitor In th emeet at Seattle next March, Somevery promising new material was o nhand as well ne n strong nucleus o flast year's rowers ,

Dr. I .etNOn, honorary president o fthe dub, addressed the meeting ,stressing the fact that in this Univer -sity rowing was destined to be on eof the most outstanding sports, an dthat with the splendid new course ,and the active, growing membershi pthere was every indication that thecrews from this University woul dequal any crew on the continent .

Arrangements are being made tosecure two shells from tho Univer -sity of Washington, and it is hope dthat several prominent Vancouve rmen, interested to rowing, will mater -ially assist the club, either in secur -ing a shell for the first eight, or inlaying out the course and buildin gthe float and club house .

There are some formidable obsta-cles to be overcome, and the honorar ypresident further explained that toattain success, co-operation and har dwork on the part of every member ofthe club was required .

Bill Bain, the captain of the crew ,told the meeting of the plans tha tare under way to provide the Uni -versity with a new course which willbe one of the finest in the west . Thecourse will be Inside the breakwate ron the North Arm of the Fraser, an dwill be approximately three and aquarter miles in length . The floa tand club house will be located on Ma-tine Drive about a mile and a halffrom the College. Temporarily, theshells will be housed at Marpole an dpractice will begin as soon as satis -factory arrangements have been com -pleted.

The date of this next meeting of theclub will be sumo

later, sad-menwho are interest ' rowing, buthave not yet join. hnp • club, woulddo well to attend n this meeting or ge tIn touch with some member of th eclub as soon as possible .

Wanderers able to gain the victory .in the Varsity-Ex-King George game ,

Varsity opened up with a couple o ftries. The old High School me nshowed some fine work In passing an dfought hard for their victory . Thehalt time count was 8. 6.

The one and only counter came i nthe second halt when George Dyne sdrove the ball over a scrimmage -i nthe goalmouth and sent a ' perfeeshot past Delcourt. From then on ,Varsity men remained on the defen-sive and constantly broke the attack sof the oncomers . Gray, a freshman .and an aggressive outside right, un•capped a bag of tricks which kep t"Malkin's Best" guessing from begin -ning to end .
