TODAY'S BIRTHDAY HONORS

Thousands of students, members of
the board of regents, faculty members
and alumni of the University of Cal
ifornia are paying tribute today to
Mrs. Phoebe Apperson Hearst, whom
they hail as the greatest educational
benefactor in California. This is the
seventy-first birthday of Mrs. Hearst.
She is the mother OF William Ran
dolph Hearts and is interested in a
large number of charitable enterpris-
es all over the United States. She
has given largely to educational insti-
tutions and is devoted to the interests
of her son. 1t was his mothers en-
enlargement that inspired Mr., Hearst
to enter so extensively into the news
paper field that he is today regarded
as one of the foremost factors in
American journalism, -&v

A. & M. IN DARKNESS

The steam plant at the A.and NJ.
College was put out of commission
early last evening and as a result the
school was in darkness last night and
also without water. The tunnel carry
ing the steam pipes to the dormi-
tories poured flood of water into the
steam plant until II stood two or three
feet deep, forcing a shut down.
The water was turned on at noon
today and enough furnished for the
noon meal, but cut off again imme-
diately. A report from the steam plant
at 2 o'clock this afternoon stated that
everything possible was being done to
be ready to run by night and the man
ager was hopeful that the experience
of last night would not be repeated.

The Seven Mistakes of Matrimony
By DOROTHY DIX.

sarily takes him into an environment
| Of which his wife can know nothing
and when he isn't at work he goes off
with other men tC enjoy himself, for
it is not the custom for American
men and women to Ilay together.
To give US due credit, we have
blundered into this state of affairs
through blindly following the line of
least resistance. Men have taken
their pleasures in the way they liked
best. So have women, and 1t must
be confessed the ideal OF good time
differs in the sexes. There are a very
few American women who really en-
JOY athletic sports while the average
American married man only attains,
through fasting and prayer, to the
pinnacle where he can endure teas
and receptions with an expression
that indicates Joy.
They Must Learn.
Nevertheless, If husband and
wife mean to make a success of their
life together they must learn to play
together, for there are no ties strong
or than those that bind us to the
comrades of our happy hours, no So
ciety so dear as tha which we can
I'll in with a succession of DO you
remembers?"
That this Is true needs no better
proof than the fact that we never
question the domestic felicity of that
couple that we see setting out on
their holidaying together When we
observe the Smiths packing their
camp kit for a run down to Florida
for tarpon fishing, or meet the
Joneses at suffrage meeting, we
| know that all is well in those two
households
But when we hear that Mrs. Smith
has had 40 new dresses made for
Palm Beach. and that Mr.. Smith has
gone to Montreal for the toboggau-
| ing, or we meet Mrs. Jones at a hen
club and Mr.. Jones at a poker club,
we aren't in the least surprised when
We pick up the paper some morning
and read that these couples, who
didn't know how to play together,
anyway, have decided to break awav
from each other and try playing in
somebody else's backyard
The moral of all this is that II hus-
| bands and wives would be happy
though married they must cultiva &c
an interest in each others pursuits.
They must have friends in common,
amusements in common, hobbies In
common. And especially they should
not be ktlljoys for each other The
woman whose narrow prejudice and
| bossiness forces her husband to give
stag parties at his club instead of N
his home. or the man who never goes
out to a party with his wife without
looking like an early Christian mar
tyr and being so grumpy that he de-
stroys all OF her pleasure, have laid
the AK AT the root Of their family
happiness.
For it is the beginning Of the end
when either husband or wife finds
out that he or she can have a better
| time when the other one is absent

those who NJ r truly enjoy any.

II ~ UNREST - y
BY WILLIAM r. KIRK.

TNHERE is no rest save sleep and death
For us whom Destiny is driving;
Until the last and feeblest breath
Some part of every mau is striving
The tireless muscles of the strong.
The mental workings Of the clever,
Unite, as We are swept along,
In one grand purpose of endeavor.
The idle day and idle dream
Are for the dotard and the fool;
The salmon flashes up the stream;
The coarse carp fattens in the pool.
Striving we live, and, striving shun
The dull content that would enslave us;
And glory, ere the day is done,
Is that unrest the Master gave US.

MAIDEN NEGOTIATIONS.

You can't play the game OF love If
you lay all the cards face up on the

About half the world wonders what
excuse the other half has for living.

for good clothes than to pay for all
the accessories demanded by hundred
dollar tailor made suit.
Some few men are born good. a few
more make good, and quite q few are
caught with the goods!

it would be detrimental to myself
if 1 should seek the company of
young men? l do not like just to
go out and have a good time Ike
all my other friends do? Some of
my girl friends are a little inclined
to be sarcastic about my not want
ing to go out with every Tom, Dick

I would rather take the advice of
some one more learned. Thanking

The Yawn.

II is literally true that unless a
couple have children they have moth
ing whatever to talk about, no sub
jeCt in which they are mutually in
tTested, and so they sit up and yawn
In each others faces, and take to
uuarreling as a kind OF life saving
station 10 prevent them from perish
ing of ennui.
This seems an eNaggeration. but
Just note the domestic conversation
at any breakfast table YOU know
Isn't IL about Johnnie's new shoes, OF
Mary's going to school? Then about
the cat? Then about the servant
Then a request for money? And wher
there are no children the repertoire
is cut down by one topic. Thrilling
~ interesting madly exciting, isn't
Il?
Yet what else have the husband
and wife TO say to each other? What
else have they got In common except
the children, and the pug dog, and
the cook, and the household expenses
Nothing. The husbands work neces-
