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. = =

accomplish this. 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.
