SAYS A CHEAT IS
EASILY A LIAR

BERKELEY, jan 1S.-Opposition to
the adoption of the so-called honor
system" at the university, calculated
to do away with cheating by students
during examinations. is expressed in
today's issue of the college daily. the
Californian. in an article from c. II.
Bell. a junior The student body is to
system. by the terms of which every
student is obliged to sign a statement
after his examination. certifying upon
his honor that he has received no aid.
during its progress.
Bell declares in the Californian that
IAN honor spirit" rather than an
honor system" is needed at the uni
versity. He says:
DO we want an honor system at
the university? Are We forced to
prove our honesty or bolster ii up
by the adoption OF a SYSTEM It is
not a very practical way of either
creating or upholding honesty. which
depends upon a genuine sentiment or
spirit. A university student is intel
ligent enough 10 know what he is
doing when he cribs at an eXapina-
tion. If 1 cheat at an examination
would not hesitate long at signing
my name 10 a statement that nave
not cheated, These are sins of about
the same magnitude. and one is as
easy of performance as the other"
The honor system has been tried at
Yale, Bell says. and the conclusions
OF Yale's secretary. Anson P. Stokes,
regarding the matter are as follows:
IF student public opinion can be
united in favor of a few planks in
a platform which will give the ideals
of a Christian gentleman, it will not
take very long for the student body
as a whole to rise to these ideals. My
one great conviction, however, on this
matter is that we want the honor
spirit rather than the honor system"

]. |. kRUSE PLANNING
MILL DESTROYED

Fire OF unknown origin caused the
destruction last night. of the planning
mill belonging to ]. H. Kruse & Co.
at Twenty third street and Treat ave-
nue. The loss amounted to s25,00o.
BY prompt action the Fire Department
saved the lumber yard of the mill.
Kruse believes that defective electric
wiring started the fire.
The alarm was turned in from
Twenty-second and Folsom streets at
e:o5 o'clock, and it was II o'clock be-
fore the flames were extinguished.
The roof of a barn containing thirty
eight horses next to the mill caught
fire, but the horses were soon taken
out and the blaze was extinguished.
No fires of any kind were ever
kindled in the mill as all the ma
chinery was operated by electricity.
When the plant was closed for the
day everything seemed to be in good
order. Before the flames were far
advanced a switch engine arrived on
the mill track and saved two box
cars. Two fire alarms but no general
alarm We're sent in, and six engines
responded.
