GOOD SUGGESTION
FOR THE BATHROOM

A bathroom with tiled floor and sides
and modern open plumbing is, Of course,
IDEAL: but thing IS expensive and needs
frequent repairing. A bathroom can be
made slightly and wholly sanitary IN the
following manner:
over the unfinished wall. TO a height
OF five or six feet. run stretch Of
heavy burlap and finish II with two
coats Of good white enamel paint. This
gives a walt SURPRISING tile in many re-
spects. which Is easily CIeansed; which
costs considerably less than thing. and
which neither cracks nor fails away
with the settling Of the building.
Let the floor be covered with PLAIN
linoIeum and the place be Invested Of
boxes and unused medicines and stow
holes generally. and you have a room in
every sense TO be enjoyed.

Fraternitles Here
For Number of Years.

For number OF years there have
been fraternities here in Washington,
and their origin is easy to understand
With all Of us the social instinct Is a
strong one. Why should it be strange
then. that this Is also the case with
one OF the main objections used
against fraternities, however, and es-
pecially TO those I'm public schools. iS
that they are undemOCrauc, ana roster
snobbishness.
How much ruth is there in this?
To be sure the fraternities are eX-
elusive because their very foundatICn IS
congeniality. Were they to take IN un-
congeniaI persons the very advantages
aimed at would be lost Whether or
not they be members or sororities and
fraternities, the girls and boys who are
congeniaI will naturally associate Win
each other.
Where is the harm If those most suit
ed to one another unite for their com
mon benefit? The fraternities are in
terested in ideals. They seek persons
whose aims and ideals are similar, and
they select them from all classes. The
result is that girls and boys from all
ranks are brought together, and the
fraternity instead of being, indemocrat-
ic. is really most democratic.
The members Of a fraternity spend
much time together, yet why shouldn
they. since they have Joined the So
ciety for this purpose. This does not
necessarily mean that the fraternity
member refuses 10 associate with the
non-fraternity student.

II is now just about a year since the
school authorities here in Washington
started an investigation of the high
school fraternities The matter was
taken up not because there was feel
ing among the authorities that there
were glazing evils existing among the
fraternities, but rather because it was
considered that an ounce of prevention
was worth a pound Of cure.
The newspa pers at the time were de-
voting much space To the many troubles
caused by fraternities In other large
cities and this had made the authOri-
ties here cautious.
It appeared that in several large cities
the laXity of parents and or the school
i'm these matters had led To
disastrous results, so the investigation
was started, not with the feeling OF
hostility toward the fraternities, but
rather with the idea of understanding
local conditions fully' 50 that the ira
ternities could do the best work pos
sible and not come TO an unfortunate
end.
am aware that this statement Will
be read with considerable skepticism by
many members OF fraternities and 10
some extent they are JUSTIFIED IN this
attitude There are some teachers who
are bitterly opposed to fraternities,
others who condemn certain features Oh
them, while the rest either approve or
are indifferent
The result is that the members usual
ly have q ''shaky'' feeling as regards
their societies and fear TO discuss their
side of the question frankly lest they
meet with speedy disapprovaL The
whole situation rises from lack OF
sympathy and understanding on the one
side and a lack of confidence on the
other Frequently the teachers know
practically nothing of the local situation
and are prejUdiced by their knoWleoSe
Of conditions In other cities On the
other hand, do the fraternities really
trv as they should to gain this much
needed sympathy and so promote mar
