Some Princeton Seniors :
Blame u. G. Of Loving
for Non Oscillation

A report of the class statistician re-
veals the confession Of twenty-seaven
members of the senior class of Prin ce-
ton university that they have never
kissed a girl. the high cost Of loving
being one of the most generally given
reasons Other reasons inclu ded
nerve, while still others confessed to
an adherence OF the traditional policy
OF "watehful waiting" -s4
An interesting feature OF the statis--
tiekan's report is that foFtY-one seniors
consider it Immoral 70 kiss girI, but
these seem 30 be IN the minoF1GH, as 172
others admit that they have done 80.
One senior says nothing Is to that, bat
admits that he writes 70 no fewer than
thirty-eaght girls. which leaves one 70
wonder when he attends to hisp studies.

expected by spring or earlier, the

ing for the formation of labor ex-
changes throughout the state under

exchanges will act as clearing houses
for the transfer of workingmen from
non-essential to essential industries,
including farms, where the labor
shortage will soon become a serious
problem.

quiry into alleged delays in supplying
the war army with guns and ammuni-
ton virtually concluded, the senate

which Major-General Goethals, re-
Gently recalled to active service, soon

clothing shortage to prevalence Of dis
ease in various cantonments also will

by other manufacturers as to delays
in supplying machine guns and rifles
during the early days of the war.
