STARTING, THE NEW YEAR| : RIGHT While with the reversion to the old ‘order of things at College with the opening of the second term students will be required to attend the chapel services on Sunday mornings, there is afforded the opportunity for volun- tary worship and Bible study, also, by attendance upon the Campus Bible school. Practically every student who comes to College has some character of re- ligious convictions and no matter what his particular creed may be he will be a better and more cultured man if he makes a careful, systematic and de- votional study of the Bible. The fin- ite mind of man can not fail to be ~ broadened and enriched by a study of the infinite mind of God as it is ‘revealed in the Bible, and the soul of. man is purified and strengthened by : communion with God through the ‘study of His Word and through prayer. Hi A i Some may have an idea that religion ‘has no ‘place in a state educational] institution and it would be highly im- proper for a state institution to in. _ culeate sectarian doctrine, but no man is well educated who neglects the culture of his soul, and in making the plea that students give attention to the development of their spiritual na-| tures we are but calling their atten-| tion to the opportunity to become well- | rounded in their general culture. And while we are making these suggestions primarily to the students it would be well that instructors and | Campus residents bear them in mind, ,also, for there is an opportunity for : them to make the New Year better than its predecessors have been along spiritual lines. : If congress should run out of any- thing better to investigate, it might instruct & commission to inquire into the true state of the ex-kaiser’s hi 3 . . . former czar of Russia is dead or alive. | The federal treasury has not be- come any more vulnerable to raids since a Glass man became its of- ficial guardian our cub reporter ob- serves, and he has come to the con- clusion that there isn’t so much in a name after all. The Army Overseas Education Com- mission sought to engage two more College men for special work among the troops in Europe, which indicates that our capable men are known far beyond the scene of their immediate labors. Michigan has ratified the consti tutional amendment for national pro- hibition, making the sixteenth state to pursue this course. Twenty more states must ratify the amendment be- fore it becomes effective. With the Sinn Feiners who refuse to take their seats in the House of Commons, following - their election, pursuit is evidently much more pleas- | urable than possession: Sweden may have been neutral in the world - war but she came out squarely on the sufferage question and has given women the unrestricted use of the ballot. EMPLOYMENT FOR DISCHARGED SOLDIERS (Houston Chronicle) Demobilization has scarcely begun, yet it is reported that in many places the supply of labor is already in ex- cess of the demand. } Demobilization can be retarded, it! is true, but that would prove unprofit- able and expensive. Besides, there is little assurance that cond.tions could be corrected by such postponement. In the readjustment of industry we has more than soldiers to find work or. ? There are munitions workers, hund- reds of thousands of them, and many other persons who left their reguiar trades or occupations to engage in some kind of war activity. it is easy enough to be optimistic and expect the situation to take care of itself, but the injection of 8,000, 000 or 4,000,000 women into industry has turned things topsy-turvy. These women cannot be deprived of their present employment without grave injustice, and if they eould, they would have just as much right to he given new positions as anybody else. The big point of the question con- | sists in the Tact that we have increased our supply of labor to meet war de- mands, and the only sensible remedy is to bring peace demands up to it. ~ We shall be foreed to provide new work for our surplus labor if unem- ployment on a dangerously widespread scale is to be avoided. = = Slackening demobilization will not a SY : New Shipment of All Kinds of Army Goods Wrapped. leggings, Side ‘Lace Leggings,Front Lace Leggings, Herman’s Army Shoes, Stetson’s Army Hats 0.

Neither will gloomy reports by employment bureaus. To depend on private enterprise to provide means to overcome the diffi- culties of obtaining work for dis- charged soldiers were to invite a long wait under any circumstances, and probably failure in the end. . Capital will hardly make many ven- tures until financial conditions appear more settled, but without capital pri- vate industry can not expand. «All things considered, Secretary Lane's scheme: to provide ‘farms for returned . soldiers seems feasible scheme yet suggested, but in order to be of effectual relief it must be put in operation without delay. ‘This scheme would not only guide thousands of young men into a voeas t.on where there is no danger from expansion, but it would help solve the problem of the great city.
