WIRELESS MESSAGES SENT
University Club Has Installed Trans
hitting Apparatus.

A temporary apparatus for sending
messages short distances has been ad-
ded to the equipment of the Wireless
Club. Messages have been sent to and
received from Warren Stewart Of
Westmount, who has a short-distance
apparatus. A longer distance was
tried the latter part of last week when
a message was dispatched to Wanda
liza, but the man who was to receive
it has no transmitter and the club Is
to be notified by mail whether or not
the message was received.
An oscillating transformer has been
made by members of the club and is
being used with a transformer lent by
the School Of Engineering. 1t is
thought that messages can be sent
from thirty to fifty miles with this
equipment.
The Wireless Club meets every FRI
day night in the Engineering Building.
About fifteen attend the meeting, ten
or twelve of whom are members.

One Good Story

Unable to obtain work, and driven
to desperation by hunger, an Irishman
decided to turn robber. having pawned
all his possessions except an old re-
volver. His first victim, observing the
highwayman's nervousness and
shrewdly estimating that he was green
at the work, said, "Ill give you all
my money, twenty dollars, for the
pistol" "Donei" cried the embryo
highwayman. The transfer was
quickly made. Now" commanded the
pedestrian, pointing the revolver at
the others head. ',hand back my
money and march along to the police
station or I'll blow your brains out"
BLOW away" said Pat cheerfully. ut

PHARISEES AND PHILISTINES.

These are two notable types Of Uni
versity failures. Even in this commu-
nifty, where the dissemination of cul-
ture is supposed the chief work, there
are too many members of both cults.
A man who has had the advantages
of University education should ac-
quire the views and opinions of a cul-
tured man but at the same time should
not lose the ability to appreciate the
viewpoint of men who are less fortu-
nate. Real culture implies this tol-
erance.
The man who, while claiming to be
cultured, lacks that breadth of view
that will make him patient with the
limitations of persons that live on
lower intellectual planes, we call a
Pharisee. Inasmuch as he has failed
to get this breadth of view, his cul-
ture is a curse rather than a benefit,
at least to those who must come in
contact with him.
The Philistine, instead of despising
lack of culture. turns his scorn to
culture itself. He appears to glory
in his ignorance, to take blatant
pride in his freedom from all cultural
standards. There are few who would
defend the Philistine's position.
But the attitude of the Pharisee is
no more defensible The narrowness
of the one is as narrow as that of the
other. He who despises culture is no
worse than he who cannot appreci-
ate the views of those who lack it.

EXAMS ARE COMING.

Students, there are but three weeks
between you and the end-of-the-se-
mester exams. Does the reminder
give you a nervous shock? Are you
like one student who declared the va
cation period spoiled by thoughts ol
what was awaiting his return to
school?
The person who goes to examina-
tions in the state of mind of that stu
dent is not doing himself justice. He
is making himself susceptible to con-
fusion and is incapacitated by the first
puzzling question that confronts him
He is defeating himself before a ques-
tion is asked.
To the student who has done his
work properly throughout the semes-
ter the subject is well in mind and the
required answers are easily trans
ferred to paper.
The time to prepare for examina-
tions is from day to day throughout
the semester. Other methods may re-
suit in a passing grade, but the stu
dent will retain little information on
the subject and it is what is retained
in the mind that counts.
Cram for examinations If you must,
but you would better make a New
Years resolution to obtain your knowl-
edge in smaller doses in the future.
That will prevent mental indigestion
and insure greater peace of mind.
