TANGO DUE TO NEURASTHEk!A
Explanation Of the Apparent Graz :"
Thus Made by Writer in
Medical journal.

The dancing epidemic which II
country is Witnessing recalls III som
respects the dancing mania OF IN
middle ages, which has been frequent
ly discussed In the litearture or neu
rological medicine, remarks a write
in Medical Times. The ragtime ant
turkey trot manas appear to be con
tagious in much the same way tina
the medieval manias were. They are
also alike in respect to widespread
prevalence, the populations OF whole
continents being affected These neu
rotic phenomena have been ascribed
to widespread neurasthenia, due to
unrest and other pathological social
conditions.
These and the naive determine ton
to be amused" that characterized the
masses, together with the peculiar In.
fluence of type Of music" which
seems to set up characteristic motor
reactions, account for the specially
sensitized class. which may be OBJ
served in action day and night almost
anywhere in the country. This class
illustrates we'll the principles laid
down by NJ. lie Bon, that authority on
the psychology of the crowd. Then it
has been pointed out that many rag
time tunes are versions of negro re
vival hymns, which perhaps intro
duces an element of quasi-religious
emotionalism and also recalls the in
teresting fact that dancing has always
been connected with religion, espe'
cially pagan religion. The instinct to
dance is a very primitive one, and
through the dance certain emotions
find outlet and expression. There Is
normal and an abnormal phase to the
subject however, and we are inclined
to think that it is the latter that finds
exemplification in ragtime and trot
ting.

ALL AGAINST THE BILLBOARD
Agitation for Its elimination Has Now
Become Almost National
In Its Scope.

The campaign against blllboards Is
20 well-nigh unvers al that ii may be
said to be national in its scope In
several states this nuisance is rapidly
coming under conditions that promise
either total elimination or cOnsidcr.
phle degree of control Locally the
question is n live one, and with an
educative campaign ever before us we
may hope to see the day when bill
boards will be legislated out Of eX-
istpnce in California. In doing this 1t
wodld be just to grant those in the
business six months or year in which
to retire their blots upon our fairest
landscapes. Such action is always
taken in response to general public
demand and when so many of our
people have expressed themselves
agail st this nuisance shrewd adVertis-
es will conclude that local advertis'
ing on billboards does not pay. Keep

VILLAGES LACKING IN CHARM
Writer Compares Them With Those
of France and Germany to Their
Disadvantage.

The average American has no eye
for harmonious effect, no appreciation
of beauty for its own sake; and il
none of the arts is this lack so eviden
as in architecture, says II. l.. Menckeh
in the Smart Set.
No distinctivcly American style has
arisen, and the average American
home remains as ugly and as undls-
tinguishei as Zulu kraal. In its
essence, it is simply q square box.
And from that archetype it proceeds
upward, not through degrees of beau
ty, but through degrees of hideousnoss.
The more 1t is plastered with orna-
mont, the more vulgar and torbiddinS
it becomes. The more 1t is adorned
with color. the more that color be-
comes a sadness, a dGbauch, public

any American state and you viii be
sickened by the chaotic ugliness Of

BUSINESS But make the same sort OF
journey through France or Germany

visible on all sides. the subordination
of details to general effects. the in
stinctve feeling for color, the sound
grouping, the constant presence OF
tradition and style. The design of
the peasant houses changes 20 times
between the Westphalian plain and
the foothills of the Alps, but in every
change there is subtle reelection OF
the physical expression of human as
piration, worldly estate and character.

Esthetlc Billboards.

Travellers in the smaller towns and
cities Of this country are painfully
edited by the contrast in them be-
tween the material plenty and the in
tellectual poverty. There is more than
enough money. Yet the town has man
aged to build itself in exactly the ug-
liest way. Perhaps it would have cost
less to make the street prettier But
nobody cared; that was evident. A
community which will not tolerate bad
grammar on the billboards, If educated
in esthetics as in letters, would cease
to tolerate the billboards. Or (who
knows?) they might let the billboards
remain and cause them to be made
beautiful! Boston Transcript

A STREET CLEANING MACHINE.

The City Council and the business
men are TO buy a street cleaner OF
some kind. An early purchase will
mean a great deal toward making the
cleaner a success. If all the mud that
is carried on TO the paved streets in
the spring is left until summer, it will
be almost impossible for any street
cleaner TO move il.
An even start with the spring mud
and good street cleaner can keep the
streets clean all summer. This is one
part of the city beautiful that has been
wofully neglected in former years.
Columbia boasts of more paved streets
than any other town of the same size
But often one would have to be a de-
tectiye to find the bricks.
Clean streets mean a more beautiful
city. This should be Columbias aim.

Stunt Week and Hot Weather.

Editor the Missourian: So We are
to have Stunt Week. At least the
seniors say so. AS an underclassman
and one who feels that he is voicing
the sentiments of the majority of the
student body, l ask, Why?
Why must We, the juniors, sopho-
mores, and freshmen, be compelled to
attend school extra time and take ex-
aminations in weather too hot for any
one to concentrate his mind effectual-
ly? Why must those who are working
their way through school run the risk
of missing jobs for the summer which
might be awaiting them? Why must
agricultural students who are needed
on the farm be forced to remain IN
Columbia overtime?
Merely to let the seniors have a
good time before graduating. Will
they gain anything by having Stunt
Week? No. Will the remainder of
the students lose anything by it? Yes
time, money, jobs, and patience.
How about the faculty? They will
have to stay still longer in order to
see that everything is properly put in
order. Can students properly prepare
for examinations during a week of
stunts and summer heat? No.
