Executive head of the given institu-

Committee of that institution. 1t is
provided, however, that this require

further that any student or group of

of the provisions stated in these re-

FOUR CLUBS
CUT OUT BY BOARD
Order Does Not Affect Literary
Societies.

The Red and Blue, A. A. A. H, Ole
Misses, and The Blues are clubs of
the past, having been disbanded by
order of the Board of Trustees. The
resolutions regarding organizations
were printed in the first November
edition of the Mississippian, so it viii
be unnecessary to reproduce it in full
here. These resolutions were unani-
mously adopted by the board on Nov
ember End, after investigation had
been made, concerning the various
organizations then existing at the
University.
The board took this action with the
belief founded on results of investi
cations, that these four clubs We're
organized and were running in VIOLA
ton Of the anti-fraternity law of Mis-
sissippi. The features of these organ
izations to which the board objected
are that they were selective or eX-
elusive organizations, and were dis
tinctly social.
The members Of these clubs were,
of course, taken in upon the basis of
congeniality, and membership was
not open to the public. This the
board objected to, and so drew up
these regulations, which gave the
clubs concerned the choice of either
revising their constitutions so as to
be in keeping with the regulations, or
of disbanding.
This order of the board does not,
however, affect the literary societies
which are run on a scholarship basis
sch as the literary societies, and
tl,ose departmental clubs to which a
s4udentin his school department has
a natural right to belong, were deem
ell as legal organizations, and so escap
ed condemnation and ruin. The con-
ditions which the board sets forth in
its Resolutions Regarding Organic
atoms" are reprinted below.
('l That basis of membership be
e-tablished which shall make the prl-
vi'eges and benefits of such society,
club, military company, or other org
anizion available to students as re-
ward of merit in scholarship, in de-
partment, and in other activity as

rather difficult problems to handle
any patron or citizen. We covet
your friendly and intelligent liter
est, and we would have you know
that we earnestly seek to arrive at
right conclusions. We need the
sympathetic support of all good citi-

able manhood for the future citizen
ship of the State, and we feel, too,
that we are entitled to such support.
Surely, it would be extreme folly,
yes, in very truth, suicidal policy,
for state, at heavy expense, to
conduct an educational institution as
an amusement center or as a place
where her own laws may be violet
ed with comparative impunity We
cannot afford to tolerate in democ-
racy anything that smacks of autoc-
racy on the ore hand

The Tennessee team dreaded to
see that bunch of freshmen in one
body, dressed in their pajamas and
night shirts and ringing bells and
blowing horns. They knew quite
we'll that this went long way to-
ward arousing the enthusiasm of the
upper clasnmen and the members of
the football team. The snake dance
given by them after the first half
of the game helped to renew the spi-

attend dinner in his new outfit; he did,
to his sorrow. Having seated him

Everyone around him was served but
nothing in the food line came to Ham
ilton. Suddenly realizing that he was
neglected my friend called the waiter
and questioned him as to the reason
he had not been served. With all the
grave dignity in the world the waiter
replied "Sir, l cannot serve you I'M

golf suit.

P. S. Have received the MISSISSIPPI
plan regularly and "devoured" every
line of it. Why is it that the student
body is not giving its whole-hearted
support to the football team?
Certainly the Ole Miss spirit can
not be dying out. We still have it
over here; four of US Mayo, Fin
ger, England and myself.
Also notice that the paper has been
cut down. Is it because The Missis-
sippian also is not bling suppoi ted ?

to lights letter, we would say that

The one is that which he intimated:

distasteful to "main chance" politicians.
But the unusual publicity which has been
accorded the school situation throughout the
summer has rendered the problem one which
can no longer be lodged. Implanted in the
public consciousness Is the knowledge that
the schools are in bad way. This is at
least one hopeful feature of the case, and 1t
should prompt the bard, the average citi
zen and the lawmaker to bestir them
selves.
Philadelphia has deservedly been proud of
its schools. Despite present embarrassments,
the attributes of excellence in the system
are many and vital. II is the danger of
degencracy resulting from straining insult
cient resources to the utmost which must be
averted If the community is to retain its

HOW THE ARMY APPEALS

A RAfY enlistments during August mounted
"A TO n figure never before attained by
this country in peace. More than 10000
recruits entered the ranks of regulars and
more are expected this month.
That this appeal of military life is exerted
at the very time when compulsory service
planks failed of the slightest chance of in
corporation into the platform of either of the
great political parties is IA significant index
Of American character. Miltarism is de-
tested The war definitely doused any
glamour remaining to such a policy.
But there are individuals to whom the
regularity Of army life, its health factors and
It's freedom from some of the heavy respon
sibilities of civilian exiNtence are attractive.
An additional asset recently created is the
system Of army schools in operation this
fall. Above all, enlistment is voluntary.
The draft was patrioticaly accepted in
monumental crisis, but freedom of initiative
is n fundamental of the national tempera
ment, and while the army acknowledges it
the ranks are unlikely to be seriously
thinned.

APoLITIcAL HACK FOR COUNCIL? ?

yTS THE Office of city councilman to de-
generate wholly into a City Hall JOB
the prey and prize of ward heelers? 1t is
FAR cry from the ideals Of those who inspired
the new charter movement to the present
schemes Of the politicians.
The news which is fiterng from the rival
Ware and Alliance headquarters shows
clearly that the vacancy caused BY the death
Of Councilman Finley provides an oppor-
tunity to reward some follower with $4,000
Job And on that basis the scramble is
lively.
None of those mentioned in political
circles" as likely to be chosen is one to
seize the popular imagination. As matter
of fact. il appears that the South Phila-
delphia slate writer's propose to promote
a $4,000 offcehOlder to the $1,000 position
Of councilman. This is the reward of loyalty
to the leaders. The high Office of council
man is to be degraded and openly converted
into an annex of political organization.

AIR MAIL

A T DAWN tomorrow regular daily
"A coast to coast air mail service, with
terminals in New York and at Sacramento,
Calf, will be inaugurated by the Postoffce
Department. Only few years ago trans
continental airplane fights were regarded
as experimental circus feats.
Air machines timed for ninety miles an
hour will deliver mail and make train CON
EtCt:Cns along the route married. by Belle
fonte. Pa: Cleveland, Chicago, Omaha,
Cheyenne and Sacramento. All territory
adjacent to these cities will, Of course, bene-
fit somewhat under the larger plans Of the
aerial mail service.
Clearly, however, the government is not
thinking of mail alone in this instance,
though a whole business day will be saved
between coast and coast for important lot
tors and business papers. The elaboration
Of the air mail system means the establish
mcut Of fully equipped landing fields at all
points where they may be needed in the
days work or in unexpected emergencies.
The mail aviators are learning all that
can be learned of air currents and the gen
cra weather conditions that affect flying in
different seasons. Fuel. equipment and re-
pair stations are being located rapidly along
the line of the shortest route between the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts. In word. the
mail lines are providing the basis for a
new system Of transport and communica-
ton that would play an important part in
any military activities that future emer-
gencies might make necessary. The air mail
service, though intended primarily for a
practical purpose. will enable the experts in
the army and navy to observe progressive
experiments with each new type of plane
and engine and with all the devices OF ad-
vanced aviation.
Air mail is here to stay. What is needed
to make this quicker method available for all
first class mail are landing and taking off
facilities in the cities A way will be found
before long to bring the mail planes down at
points close to the central distributing sta
tions. What this would mean is apparent
when it is remembered that three hours
time, at least, is required to get letter
by train from the central postofice here to
the central postofice in New York. One OF
the mail planes now in general use could
cover the same distance in sixty minutes.
