STOP THE HAzina

Even though there have been suf- hcient i'll effects in the past and no excuse for the senseless practice of lflazing as carried on in some of the schools and colleges, fatal or near fatal ending seems to be necessary before it is possible to check it. Such. at least. is to be gained from the sit uation existing at St. Johns college
 Annapolis. today. where one of the students, a member of what was in- terpreted as hazing crowd was shot and seriously wounded by a party who considered they had been picked out as the victims They had been put through some stunts and didn't propose to be subjected to further hazing and while rather serious and unjustifiable method was adopted without warning and unquestionably without anticipating any such serious results, it was only such climax as might be expected. Without hazing there would have been no shooting.
 The real deplorable fact is that neither of the parties was in the right. The hazers were bent upon making things as uncomfortable as possible for the younger classmen and the lat ter in their determination not to yield to any such bullying went beyond all bounds of reason in frightening the hazers. Hazing has come to be, through development, one of the ob- noxious and injurious habits against which college authorities find it nec- essary to take the strongest measures, but in this instance it promises to reach far beyond the faculty. The fellow who was shot is getting his punishment, though somewhat more severe than conditions deserved, while tho others are due far settlement with both school and legal authorities.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Material and Spiritual.

In truth this best of the two worlds can really be attained. but not in the sense that youth imagines. The best of the material world, its outward and taste. can be experienced in ppoper measure without conflict with the spiritual; but no dominance can be given to these things that are exter- is within. We may wisely let the spiritual master us, but we must att tain our own mastery over the mater ial. Otherwise there must be the gradual encroachment of the lower rule; the meaner and poorer things will become more and more necessary,
 There is nothing else so powerful as the expulsive force of great af- lection: and If the affection is for baser things, 1t slowly but surely ex- pels a love for the higher. For awhile it has perhaps seemed possible to en- joy the two; for time there were glorious heights of idealisn1, beau tiful dreams, high airYs. alternated by an excessive indulgence in pleasures of the sense. We know there have been both poets and preachers who have giorified the noblest things in their words and yet at times have served the basest in their deeds. It does not follow that they have been insincere,. though the word hypocrits is often thrown at thenni the difference
 
 chasm between their two natures. That chasm cannot be bridged; and yet, so wonderful is human nature, 8 man may at the same time be spirit ual and a sensualist, noble and mean, unselffish and petty
 MOralists have been somewhat shy | of facing this double nature; it's com plication has frightened them; they have tried to insist that we must be either good or bad. It has seemed like | immortslit or at least a sad lapse in ! ethical teaching. to assume that we may be both-that we may be good and bad at the same time But it is true we all know it to be true. We 1 can never be vain of any possible 1 goodness, because We know how near to us is the opposite we need never be driven to despair by any possible failure. because we know that the I great and the good. if we will. are 1 equally possible. It is a Knowledge | that saves us at once from arrogance from spiritual pride and from reck. less desperation-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Sensible and Intelligent Speaker.
 MT. Editor: To quote that impos- ing parsonage in Pinafore. Sir Joseph Porter, K. c. B.:
 My pain and my distress,
 It was not easy to express"
 when I read in a letter, written for the Tuesday Bulletin by a writer who signed himself, One Who Is Not a Bachelor that should be called down for decrying women and their braiasl Ear be it from any intention of mine to have done so; and If my ConfuciRn simile was so misunderstood, I hereby hasten to make the amende honorablei
 Yes, I was one of the many who helped make up the large audience at the town hall on Tuesday night. Mrs George certainly is crackerjack. when it comes to making her points and driving them home. I was interested, instructed and amused, just as hoped to be, by her clever, witty remarks, and much impressed by the truth of hen statements In fact, I applauded eyeglasses. You see have frequently heard Gas who has not?) of that un- fortunate trait of exaggerating facts to which most suffragists are prone but was amazed to read, set down in cold type on the Anti literature, the exact figures of such untruthfulness. Why on earth women want to fib so is more than I can tell. But then, that is the way they do with their age-only that shrinks instead of stretching Facts are facts, and If only one thousand women marched in a suffrage parade, why say ten tousand? Such fabri- cations do not appeal to any fair minded man or woman. Ananias used to hold the record for overwhelming, but . it looks to me as though the would-be women voters were giving him a run for first place.
 It was quite easy, even for a stranger, to pick out the two factions last night: the earnest, interested faces were the Anti-s, of course; while the am-I-lookdng- bored enough contingency. taking obvious notes ! were the suffragists. Their cock -sure air was very comical. I certainly did enjoy the whole evening immensely take off my hat to Mrs. George. Ii was delightful to listen to woman of so much intellect and refinement, and I'd be glad to hear her, or any Ant speaker as good. many times. It was worth while giving up my pipe for 1 once. to hear so much good sense and 1 intelligence.

To Regain a Healthy,
 Crlish Complexion

:. If you would have a clear. fresh, girl mercofized wax will aid you in this direction more than shelves full of cos metics. It produces a natural beauty. This wax, rrocurable at any drug store, completely absorbs a bad complexion, revealing the healthy young skin un- derneath. It's work is done so gradual ly, day by day, that no inconvenience IS caused. The wax is applied at night. like cold cream, and removed in the morning with soap and water.
 Another valuable re1uvenafing treat ment--this for wrinkles-is to bathe your face in a solution of powoered saxoiite. l oz., dissolved in h pt. witch hazel. This has remarkable action in smoothing out the lines and "firming up'' the loose tissue.
