A CHAIR OF HUMOR.

! We are progressing in our academic ideals
Aristotle considered trade beneath the dignity
of a scholar In the middle ages the principal
subjects taught in universities were philosophy
and theology. It is only within comparatively
recent period that one forward-lo looking Ameri
can university has had professor of poetry
But now in our universities we have professors
4 of banking as well as of economics.
/ The suggestion of the commissioner of educa-
| ton of New Jersey that chair of humor should
be established in that states normal college
WILL if carried into effect, tend to hu1nanize the
PROFESSIONAL mind so much that the adjective
8 academic may come to mean brilliant, - in
stead of ''ponderous or "dull.'' If in former
days the idea of professorship of humor. had
Imaterialized there might have been several COM
lpetent professors of humor; We should have
lad dispositions on the humor of journalism,
the humor Of dialect, the humor of the mining
camp and the humor Of cosmopolitan vagabond-
age. Perhaps when humor becomes part of
the curriculum like logic and English literature,
there will be examination papers containing
such questions as: ''Why cannot Englishmen
understand American humor or Americans Eng
lish humor?'' or "What American writer's have
wit and no humor?' An academic education
in which the science of humor is taught may in
the future produce senators whose speeches will
make the Congressional Record flash with cor
uscations compared with which the columns Of
Judge or Life will be insipid aud lusterless.
Indeed, there is room for chair Of humor
in every American university and college,
The bone dry prohibitionists are in control Of
of the house and are defeating all attempts to
iberalize the bill enforcing the war time dry
law. The first Of the sixty four sections of the
measure has now been brought to vote upon
the floor and remains as the committee reported
il. The sixty three other sections will be taken
up in sequence after which the senate will take
the bill in hand. The suggestion has repeatedly
been made that the president will veto the meas
ure if it comes to him in it's present drastic
form. Nobody knows however, what he will do
and the house dry majority is evidently deter
mined to make the measure as severe as pos
sible and begin absolute prohibition at once in
advance of prohibition under the constitutional
amendment

SALVATION ARMY HOTEL
QUITS; PROHIBITION DUE

OMAHA, Neb.. May 1.-THE Sal
walton Army hotel here went out of
existence May l. after more than 20
years Of existence on S. Thirteenth
ST. Adjutant and hrs. Dodds, who
have been here for years, say that
during the 20 years they have fur
nished 100000 beds, have given
thousands of men jobs and aided
them in other ways The hotel for
the past year has not been so well
patrOnized, due to prohibition in Ne
braska, so Mother Dodd says. The
owners have decided to remodel, and
asked the Salvation Army a higher
rate than they could afford to pay.
Different methods are in use for
keeping the supply of electricity
steady in spite Of the varying de-
mands made on it. In some sys-
TENS Of distribution, instead Of the
two main conductors being one pasi-
tive and the other negative, each is
positive and negative alternately, the
reversals taking place some hun
dreds of times a second. The cur
rent is then said TO be alternating.
When such reversals do not take
place, the currents are said TO be
direct.

will always answer questions that WE
DO not understand. thereby making a
teacher almost useless"
"The advantage of being a page in
the Senate" was the question discussed
by Ingham G.. Mack. who said, in part:
I'VE have every chance to learn
much about our own government and
that of other countries which we
otherwise would not have the oppor-
tunity of knowing. And when not
able men from foreign countries visit
the Senate we have the honor of meet
ing them. too"
c. Perry Miller. jr.. responded to the
toast, Why cloture is needed in the
Senate
The Senate of the United States
has always taken great pride in the
fact that it is the greatest delibera-
tive body in the world" he said. "One
of the main reasons assigned for
this boast is that it has always had
unlimited debate without any rule to
cut Off the senators from talking.
When the Senate was first organized
there were only few members. But
and the lack of a rule to end debate
by majority vote has resulted in
long debate and filibusters which
have prevented the prompt enactment
of measures vitality needed by the
country"
Perry pointed out that the Senate
now has a rule by which tw6-thirds
can limit debate. but that many of
the senators believe that there should be
a majority rule.
They are willing to give up their
personal. power to advance the in
terests of the country" he continued.
But l believe in talking and de-
batting the many important measures
that come up. Being a patriotic
American, however. l would be the
last one in the world to prevent
action on important measures"

MOVING PICTURES


Evelyn Nesbit, the Fox star, will ap-
pear at the Colonial theater tomorrow
in her newest photoplay, my Little
Sister," which is an adaptation OF
Elizabeth Robins TREMENDOUS story of
the same name. The book has been
published in edition after edition and
the sales have reached into the mil
lions and no wonder, since it tells one
of the most human and vital stories
that has ever been conceived.
The production reveals just how tae
traffickers in human souls lie in wait
for their innocent prey and capture it.
1t bears the horrible mystery that
lies behind the disappearance of those
thousands of girls who are sacrificed
every year on the altar of lust and
brutality. MY Little Sister" reveals
just another girl who is lured into the
clutches of the white slavers. Her
story is tragic one-for she was a
girl who knew nothing of the sordid
things in the world, and she is de-
coyed at railroad station and taken
to a den of infamy. How her sister
attempts to find her after escaping
the same fate is told in a volume of
intensely dramatic scenes. The sus
pense is splendid1y gripping. Miss
Nesbit gives a fine performance of the
