Last week DR.. kirschner made pub
lie the financial report OF the inter
class basketball season at W. & ].
college. and showed that the season
had been a most successful one in
every way. One cause for satisfac-
ton is the neat balance in the treas
ury. DR. Kirschner also expressed
himself as being we'll pleased with the
interest shown by the students and
public in general.
The baseball season was slated 10
open last Saturday with the Wash
ington Independent team. but owing
to the opposition of the weather. the
game was called off. This contest
will probably be played some after
noon during the coming week. The
diamond al College park was rolled
last Tuesday and although the
ground was not In the best OF shape.
Coach Eriser put his team through
a strenuous workout I'm batting and

CERTIFICATES FOR BRIDES
Campaign That Is Being Carried on
by Swiss Society of Public Utility
for Women.

If the influential Swiss Society OF
Public Utility for Women" which has
branches In every large town In
Switzerland, and has done a great deal
of good work, has its way, young
Swiss women, both married and I'M
married, will be physically and medl-
cally examined, like. their brothers,
who are obliged to enter the army.
The society calls upon Swiss wom-
en- to undergo the test voluntarily,
and hopes to inaugurate the service
next year. 1--WE feel ourselves respon-
sible," says the society, "for the
health, homes and character of our
people," and calls upon Swiss young
women to undergo temporary ordeal
for the sake of herself, her husband.
her children and her country.
"If every young man before his
marriage asked for health certificate
of his bride" said supporter of the
scheme to me, ut would be in force
tomorrow. The scheme wants the
support Of both men and women, old
and young, of every class, for the
benefit of not only Switzerland, but
mankind. Every government in the
world would be glad to support the
movement when once launched. We
shall try"

Street Lights Again.

At the council meeting Monday
night a proposition from the
light company was considered.
A very low rate was made, the
city to install the system. A
committee was appointed to pre-
pare a report as to the cost of
the installation and as soon as
the report is in shape a meeting
will be called to act on it. The
council is very much in favor
of street lights and if it is posi-
BILE to accept the offer it will be
done. However they want to get
the best and the most for the
money expended. The light
company also will do their best
in the matter of price.

There seems to be a general
impression among the people
that we have too many laws.
There are many laws which the
people do not want, and a law not
desired cannot be enforced, at
the same time the person who
violates one of these laws is a
law-breaker-a criminal. To our
mind this leads to condition
where law-breaking is not frown-
ed upon, and tends to violation
of good, wholesome laws. When
the time comes, if it ever does,
when there must be a demand
from the general public for a
law before it can be enacted,
freak laws will be a thing of the
past, and the statutes of the state
will not be burdened with lot
of undesired, uncomfortable laws
which originate in the mind of
some Legislator and passed to
secure his support others equally
as useless. We have in mind the
hunters license law. AS source
of revenue this law is all right,
but outside of that we fail to see
any benefit. The busy man who
goes out one or two afternoons
a year and seldom bags any game
must pay his dollar or violate the
law. The small boy with his lit
tie rifle must dig up or become
a criminal. Well wager dough-
nut that not one out of ten who
hunt have license, and in most
cases the game warden sees the
injustice of the thing and pays
but little attention to the matter.
To sum up, we need less fool
laws and more enforcement of
good ones.

Those Dangerous Hatpins.

One Of the many objections to the
big hats which the women are wear

secured by pins of proportionate mag

pins protrude in a manner which rem
ders them menace to all who come
within their reach. No one can ride
