LIBRARY FIGHT OVER The announcement that w>rk will start on the

Hawley Library, possibly within a month , is a wel­come one tn the s tudents of this College. T h e y have gone th rough the discomfort of work ing in a library utterly inadequate to permit even a small part of the s tudent populat ion to work in comfort . They have gone to the length of making personal appearances before the representa t ives of the State legislature and the finance commit tee dur ing the previous year. It was grat ifying for them to know that the support of President Brubacher did not waver dur ing the long period of wai t ing that seemed to be necessary.

When the new library opens in March the s tudents will realize that new oppor tuni t ies are opened to them in the form of vastly be t te r facilities and im­proved service. Miss Cobb and her ass is tants have performed a difficult task in fine fashion when they served student needs in the old quar te rs . Now they will have facilities which will be equalled only by their will ingness to cooperate with s tudents .

A WISE POLICY Agitat ion for reorganiza t ion of the Pedagogue

staff, lead by the Stale College News last year, has culminated in the adopt ion of valuable improvements by the yearbook staff and the senior class.

The ant iquated and unbusinessl ike procedure of electing the edi tors and business m a n a g e r s by popu­lar vote has been relegated to the shelves where it should have been collecting dust years ago. The new board will be self-perpetuat ing. Tha t is, mem­bers of the outgoing board will elect their succes­sors, following the example of all other College publications. T h e advan tages of this are fairly ob­vious, chief a m o n g them being that the best quali­fied people select successors whose work is a guar­antee of the next sear ' s success.

The board will also allow sophomores and juniors to try out. This too, is an unquest ioned improve incut. The longer these people have contacts and oppor tuni t ies for perfecting themselves for duties they will presumably under take , the bel ter they will be prepared

The 19.12 Pedagogue staff is to be commended for its wide-awake at t i tude. It has adopted a policy that cannot fail in beneficial results.

IT SHOULDN'T OCCUK AGAIN Steps should be taken to avoid the embar rass ing

and unnecessary delay which at tended the f r e s h m a n Welcome Friday night in the Page hall audi tor ium.

In this, as in similar cases, the blame is difficult to place. Some tune was Used by the sophomore commit tee iii passing out its paraphernal ia lo the freshmen. More was lost when it was found im­possible to unlock the piano for the singing of the alma mater .

Future commi t tees should lake care that the jani­to r s who are hired for the evening are prepared lo handle such s i tuat ions as may be expected to arise. T h e student associat ion does not relish an invita­tion for an 8:00 o'clock event which actually begins a round 9:00 o'clock. A repet i t ion of last Friday night will surely see them come armed with Bally* lioo to while away the time before the start of the p r o g r a m .

WHAT IS A SCHOLAR? An eminent psychologis t offers the following as

cri teria of a scholar : U n d e r s t a n d i n g and apprecia t ion of o the r races

and cultures con tempora ry or remote . Ability and disposi t ion to weigh evidence in con­

troversial ma t t e r s . Ability and disposi t ion to mental ly project an

under tak ing th rough its successive steps before un­der tak ing it.

Skill in explanat ion and prediction. Ability and disposi t ion to look beneath the sur-

farc of th ings before pass ing judgment . Ability to do reflective thinking. Disposit ion toward cont inued study and intellec­

tual cul t ivat ion. Critical and quest ioning a t t i tude toward tradi t ional

sanct ions. Clari ty in definition. Discr iminat ion in values in react ing to environ­

ment, social and physical. Analytical approach to proposi t ions leading to the

detect ion of fallacies and cont radic t ions . Ability and disposi t ion to observe accurate ly and

systematical ly. Unde r s t and ing and skill in the use of processes

of induction, deduct ion and general izat ion. T h e ability to see rela t ionships and accuracy in

their in terpre ta t ion . A freshness of interest with respect to the de­

velopments of knowledge. W h e t h e r or not they are acceptable to everyone,

it must be admit ted that the average college student will benefit great ly by mak ing himself familiar with them and following them as far as he is able.

Rogue I terries. By Hugh Walpule. Doubledav Dorau & Company. New York City. 524 pages. $2.50.

One of the must stirring and fascinating stories in literature steps across the pages of history in this mas sive and vital novel, rich in background and enormously rich in the portrayal of one of the most fascinating characters ever born in the mind of a writer.

Rogue Merries, the haughty, wenching, vagabond, gentleman hero, is a completely rounded character who is as masterly portrayed as is the England which nour­ished him. Picture, if you can, a scene in a public tavern in which Merries, partially drunk, auctions off his mistress for thirty pieces of silver. Despite these fre­quent lapses, Merries did have ideals- ideals that sent him reeling and carousing through a world of realities in search of something that seemed unattainable for him. Yet he could treat the mother of his sons with a brutal callousness and a barbaric lack of respect.

Merries lives with a robust reality that impinges the story of his great and almost obsessive love for his second wife, Mirabcll, upon the brains of her readers. She, together with his faithful servant, Benjamin, fol­lowed him to the seclusion of his slony wilderness es­tate at Merries. Their relationship was a peculiar one —she marrying him with the common understanding that their union was prompted more by her poverty than by her liking for him. Yet she grew to love him more and more as they lived together. Once she left him and then we have the episode of the lonely old man, for be was then growing old, trudging up and down England to recover the woman whose complete love he had determined lo win.

Finally he found her. Bringing her back to Merries and its lonely atmosphere, he again took up his pathetic attempt to gain her love. Mis worship of her trans­cended even the deep understanding which existed be­tween his son David and himself. Mis worship of her was oddly founded—she was tied an educated woman, was most unskillful about the house, no one could call her beautiful, and she was not strictly a lady in the ordinary connotation of that word.

Throughout the story we envision the changing con­ceptions of Merries—in his powerful and magnetic youth, Merries standing stripped on a cold autumn morning waiting to be doused with water by Benjamin, Merries riding his line charger, Merries dawdling in alehouses with tavern wenches, Merries shouting in stentorian tones for bis dinner.

Walpole makes the rollicking eighteenth century live again with its witches, gloomy old houses, roistering blades, and its romance. Me has ably succeeded in portraying eighteenth century England in kaleidoscopic fashion, giving authentic views of the many levels of society that combined to produce the nation that fought for and against the Jacobins and the Young Pretender,

Shadows „n ///,• Hock. By Willa father . Alfred A. Knopf. New York. 280 panes. $2.50.

'I'be reading public of America looks forward with well founded pleasure i,, this addition to Miss f a t h e r ' s cont r ibut ions to the li terature of tbe country . She gives to it a delightful story of New France in a way that only the premier woman novel-isi of America could do. Page upon page of wond­erfully descript ive narrative unfold as tin- au thor passes through the lives of one of the pioneering families which gave Louis XIV his claim to empire in the New World.

I tin follows with unflagging interest the history of the apothecary phi losopher around vv hose family the story is woven. He- follows with vvaiiu feeling the' sv inpailiciic unders tanding and mature ability of his small daughte r fee ile. Characters are inlro duced and given par ts thai could scarcely differ from actual c i rcumstances t i ne is touched with the plight of little J acq in-, son of a waterfront prost i tute , with bis doglike devot ion to Cecile, and with his pathetic efforts to follow the path thai she makes

f o u n t Fioi i tcuac, stern and able guardian of this bulwark of France, is shown as a kindly and humane old gent leman who could put aside the rancor caused by disappointment in political preferment in order to buy clothing for a needy child.

The hook is a worthy companion for Death Comes for the Archbishop which it equals if it does not sur­pass in l i terary meri t .

New equipment and additional workers have been added to the Col­lege co-operative bookstore to take care of the first week's rush which will see over fifteen hundred students pur­chase more than five thousand text­books, Miss Helen T. Fay, manager of the store, sa'.d today.

A large new showcase has been added for the purpose of advertising stationery, jewelry, book-ends, and typewriters. The students' corner, used last year for the perusal of Miss Fay's choice volumes, has been forced to give way temporarily to the demands for more space.

Jewelry, made by the Navajo In­dians who visited the College last spring, is being sold as are first edi­tions of Willa Gather's Shadows on (he Rock.

The co-op will continue its policy of presenting books at the weekly student teas in the Lounge of Richardson Hall, Miss Fay said, adding that many of the books to be distributed in this manner will be those reviewed by the News.

The co-op will also continue its gathering of materials for projects for history II and for literature courses. A small payment will be asked for this service, which in turn will be used to purchase fire-wood for the Lounge of Richardson 11 all.

Helen Otis, '31, former editor-in-chief of the Echo and a member of Myskania, is serving in the co-op as a full time assistant.

Injuries to Miss Fay, suffered in an automobile accident, have not hindered the usual preparations of the co-op for the fall season.

European Economic Conditions Trend Toward Prosperity, Dr. Metzler Discovers

Economic conditions in France and the British Isles give every indica­tion of prosperity, Dr. William H. Metzler, dean of the College, declared Upon his return from a summer tour of those countries.

Dr. Metzler spent about two months traveling through England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and France, his objective being not to study any­thing, hut simply to take in the beau­ties of nature and art. He lauded in London and proceeded from that city to Chester, a town near the birth­place of Dr. T. Frederick II. Cantl-lyn of Albany, who is head of the College music department. He then journeyed southward into Wales and crossed to Dublin. Political conditions were quiet here, he no­ticed, as they were in Belfast to the north. Belfast, he found, was one of the most beautiful cities in Ireland and famous for its linen manufac­tures. He again crossed to England, landing at Stranraer and proceeding into the Burns' country, visiting Ayr and other places made famous by Robert Burns, the "ploughman poet." The university buildings at Glasgow are very beautiful and modeled after the English style of architecture, Dr. Metzler noticed. A debate team from this Old World university had met a team from Dr. Metzlcr's college dur­ing the past year. He sailed up Loch Lomond and crossed the Trossachs and other points along the Scottish border famous in the novels and poetry of Sir Waller Scott.

His party visited the alleged site of the battle of Bannockbtirn, fought more than 7<K) years ago for Scot tish independence from England. He \isited Edinburgh and Melrose Ab­bey and also visited the scenes of Shakespeare's birthplace.

After trips to Oxford university and Windsor for views of the lint - j versity buildings and world-famous works of art, lie sailed for France

and arrived in Paris. Dr. Metzler and his party enjoyed motor trips to Mont Blanc and other peaks in the Alps. Foreign drivers arc much more careful than the average Amer­ican motorist, he declared, pointing out the dangerous mountain roads where one foot too much to the side would have plunged the entire party two thousand feet in a few seconds. He then journeyed along the southern border of France along the Mediter­ranean sea, visiting Monte Carlo, Nice, and Marseilles. The oldest ex-

Alumnae Were Guests Of Beta Zeta Sorority

Carolyn Kelley, '31 and Vida b'rey. '31, were week-end guests of Beta Zeta sorority. Miss Kelley was a member of Myskania and president of the Young Women's Christian asso-ialion last year.

The registration of students in the 1931 exceeded the enrollment in regu­lar session by approximately two hundred, according to Dr. Milton G. Nelson, director of the summer ses­sion. The total number enrolled was thirteen hundred and forty-seven in­cluding one hundred and thirty-eight Slate college undergraduates.

Dr. Nelson says of the increase: "The influx this summer is typical of the trend in educational circles to­day. Year by year, education is be­coming more and more professional. Stale certification standards are in­creasing, boards of education are urg­ing their teachers to 'brush up pro­fessionally', and the teachers them­selves are feeling the need for modern training in the methods and content of the subjects they are teaching. In in­creasing numbers, teachers of ex­perience are being urged to attend summer school at least every fourth or fifth summer."
