BOUGHT GIFT WITH BLOOD.
College Boy Gave Up Eight Ounce,
to Buy Girl Xmas Present.

New York. Dec. 3.-Eight ounces of
blood helped to buy a friend of a Co
lumbia student a Christmas present this
year. Pressed for funds, but determined
that his best girl'' should have a holi-
day gift, this student jumped at the
chance offered by st. Luke's Hospital to
furnish this amount Of blood for one of
their patients in return for a check for
SIS.
No sooner had he divulged to a few
Of his trends at the university. that a
little blood would open up the Golfers
Of st. Luke's Hospital than a host of
the students quickly besieged the hos
pital for a chance to ofer up their life's
fluid in return for the dollars which
would buy Christmas presents
The first news of this new line Of en-
ployment for Columbia students came in
an Interview with Paul c. Hotter. the
new secretary OF the employment COM
mittee at the university. who declined TO
give the students name.

Margaret AnEIIn I'm Lady wInder-
mere's Fam

Margaret AnEitn In "Lady WInder-
mere's Fam"
With the prevailing spirit for themes of
crime, boisterOus fares, or musical
plays whose chief appeal consists of
legs and lingerie, Margaret AngIin's
splendid revival of the brilliant comedy,
Lady Windermere's Fan" at the CO.
lumbia Theater last night comes as a
gratifying change
The occasion was a pleasant one in
many ways. The audience was large,
the atmosphere cordial, and Miss Anglin
was welcomed back to Washington with
a fiattering warmth Of appreciation. As
for Lady WindeTmere's Fam" II is one
Of the most delightful comedies of the
better sort-such pungent satire, such
brilliant dialogue, such perfect crafts
manship-and the literary distinction Of
the play is well matched by the distinc-
ton Of the present production, which is
addressed throughout to people OF intel
ligence and taste.
''One pays for ones sins, then pays
again; all ones life one pays" declares
Mrs. Erlynne. She had made her great
mistake twenty years before the period
Of the play, but feels now that she will
make one last attempt to re-enter smart
society and leave the past behind. She
enlists the aid of Lord Windermere, hus-
band to a daughter who knows her not.
He consents to aid her and furnishes
her financial support, providing that she
shall keep out of her daughters life.
Lady Windermere, learning that her
husband supports Mrs. Erlynne, believes
her Windermere's mistress, and Is there
fore indignant when Windermere compels
her to invite Mrs. Erlynne TO a reception
she is giving. She yields to the sugges-
ton OF Lord Darlington. an admirer, and
goes to his chambers after the reception
rather than stay with the husband whom
she believes has deceived her.
It Is then that the true nobility Of
Mrs. Erlynne's character is made mani
fest. She follows Lady Windermere to
Lord Darlington's to rescue her daughter
from a false step. but while they are dis
cussing affairs and Lady WinderTnere at
last believes in her husband Out is not
acquainted with the fact that Mrs. Err
lynne is her mother), the owner Of the
rooms and a coterie of his intimates, In
cluding Lord Windermere and fat Lord
Lorton (who has asked Mrs. Erlynne to
be his wife), enter, and the two women
hurriedly hide, in their haste leaving
Lady Windermere's fan behind in plain
view on the table.
Then occurs tense moment when the
fan is discovered and Lord Darlington
twitted about keeping a lady in hiding in
his rooms from his intimate friends, and
Mrs. Erlynne, willing to sacrifice her re-
juvenated reputation and prospects OF q
haDpY marriaEs for her childs sake.

Special Cable TO Ths Washington Herald
London, Dec. 5.-Col. E. d. Swinton,
attached to Field Marshal Sir John
French's staff as Official .'eye witness" Of
the British expeditionary force in France
and Belgium, sends the following nara
tive OF events supplementing and con-
tinulng that furnished to include the ac-
| tivities Of December 10. The narrative.
which is dated December q. follows:
"Our activity which commenced on De-
cember II IN conjunction with the pres
sure brought to bear by our allies along
| the whole line has continued. On Friday
the 18th on our right center we progressed
| by capturing some sapperheads and pris-
oners. Both to the north and to the south
the French continued to gain ground and
| took many prisoners.
The Germans are making determined
efforts to regain the ground they have
lost and by sheer weight OF numbers they
have succeeded partially.
Many Hand Bombs Used.
THE employment Of bombs undoubted-
ly has been the chief feature OF the re-
cent action. The throwing Of large
bombs from trench mortars and similar
smaller missiles from rifles or by hand
has now-become general all along the
line.
when the fighting reaches the stage
OF trench warfare at short range these
missiles take the place OF the projectiles
hurled by the longer range weapons which
cannot be used with safety owing to the
propinouity to each other Of the front
lines OF either side.
The great use. made by the Germans
Of these engines Of destruction is only
one sign Of the reliance they place upon
every possible means OF helping their
infantry and artillery in the lombard
ment Of their enemy's positions
Viewed from high ground this style
OF warfare furnishes a most impressive
sight. After a short burst Of fire last
ing perhaps only three or four minutes
the hostile trenches are obscured by
pail df smoke. in the midst of which can
be seen a series OF flashes as the shrap-
mel bursts Miniature volcanoes appear
in the earth where the high explosive
common shells burst in the soft clay soil
Front often Is silent.
Then. If an infantry attack is to he
launched, the cannonade suddenly ceases.
There is a moment OF suspense and then
a swarm OF khaki-clad figures spring
from the trenches and rush across the
ire-swept zone for a possible hundred
yards.
Invariably there breaks out the rattle
Of the machine guns and musketry and
there is a perceptible hesitation as the
stormers reach the enemy's wire entan-
clements. .-.. .
Then. If the assault succeeds. they dis
appear into the enemy's trenches. leav-
ing few or many scattered bodies lying
in the track OF their advance
Save for such moments as these there
Is no movement whatever in the battle
zone, for generally there is not a man,
a horse or a gun to be seen. Then, again.
periods OF absolute silence when, except
for the sight Of the deserted and ruined
hamlets. the scene is one Of peace and

How long should the young man
or the young womah attend school?
As long as he or she lives.
Graduation from a grammar
school, a high school, an institute of
technology, or college, does not pre-
sent to the pupil diploma or a de-
gree negotiable in the market of the
world. This fundamental academic
education is essential, but he who is
satisfied with what the school gives
him is never going to give satisfac-
ton.
From the school and from the col
lege we enter the University of the
World, school which has no begin
ming and no end. What has come be-
fore prepares us better to pass the
continuous examinations OF activity,
but all the school learning which It
IS possible Or one head to hold, all
the academic training which all the
schools of the world can give, will
not fit one to maintain a high stand
ing IN the University of the World.
Out in the great open, away from
parental care and scnooi protection,
we must learn for ourselves, without
the considefate instructors who were
with Us in earlier days. We must
meet competition and even unfair
ness. We must stake out for our
selves the road which we are to fol-
.ow. unguided by the kindly hands
Of the past.
No matter what your school edu-
cation may be, you will not succeed
