expelled from Middlebury College Fri

in-chief of the college weekly, "The
Campus. In the last issue which he
edited he published an editorial with
out first having submitted it to faculty
supervision. The deception employed

alleged to have been the reason for
the extreme discipline meeted out to
him.

leaving had caused a considerable stir.
A student committee was formed to
investigate the facts of his resignation.
A report was submitted by the com
mittee but has not been given publicity
An issue of The Campus was confscat-
ed April because of the offensiveness
of an editorial relating to the report.
In the issue of April 2S, the last under
Moody, he wrote of Regular Super

harangued the undergraduate body in
to taking a vote whereby they repudi-
ated authoritative faculty supervision
and took stand by an overwhelming
majority for merely advisory super
vision. Moody printed his next and
last issue on the strength of this vote
He did not seek censorship of his
editorial and even concealed it, it is
alleged His expulsion followed

What pity Joseph inc hadn't seen her way clear to en- eouraging Dick Borden, the good-lOOk- ing son of his old business associate 1! There was coming man for you And, by love, there was an idea And MT. Webster put that same idea in his pipe, as the saying goes, and smoked it good and hard.
 The first inkling that any one got of Josephine's near fiance's name was when Sally sauntered into her sisters room and picked up a postal lying conspicuously on the latter's dresser Portraying one of the very new stars in the Russian ballet, 1t bore in scrawl- ing letters at the bottom the words: Until l see you, my soul mate. R. Nedrobsky."
 The very noon of Josephine's last day home and of the day of Mir. Ned robsky's arrival, MT. Webster, coming home for lunch, sought out his wife. "Helen," he said, "what do you think? l met Dick Borden downtown. He ask ed most kindly after 10 and invited him up to dinner tonight. Jo has been down in that bohemian place so long she has forgotten what real man looks like. Just give her chance to see fellow like young Borden along side of her poet creature and she'll turn him down--or else be more of an idiot than l want to think of my own daughter"
 "Well. maybe" said his wife. not without hope herself; 'but I'm afraid Josephine won't like if"

GUARD AGAINST FOREST FIRES

Airplanes are helping fight, forest fires in some parts of the country, says the American Forestry association. but that is no reason the public should relax its vigilance and do a great part of the forest fire fighting by not having any fires. With the annual forest fire loss reaching about thirty the cost of lumber mounting higher and higher the American Forestry as- sociation says it Is up to the public to join in the fight with will. Camp CTS are blamed for many of the fires and now that the tourists are getting on them to remember:
 No to throw your match away un- til you are sure it is out.
 Not to drop cigarette or cigar butts until the glow is extinguished.
 Not to knock out your pipe ashes while hot or where they fall into dry leaves or other inflammable material.
 Not to build camp fire any larger than is absolutely necessary. Not to leave fire until you are sure 1t is out: smother 1t with earth or water.
 Not to burn brush or refuse in or near the woods.
 Not to be idle when you discover a fire in the woods. If you cannot put 1t out yourself, get help. Where forest guard. ranger or state Are war den can be reached call him up on the nearest telephone ysu can find.
 Not to forget that human thought lessness and negligence are the cause of more than half of the forest fires in this country. and that the smallest spark may start conflagra ton that will result in loss of life and destruc- tion of timber and young growth, val uable not only for lumber but for their influence in helping to prevent flood, erosion and drought.

 POET
By RAY LEWIS

 You don't know how good it is to get home, mother, even if it is only for . week." she said, taking out her combs and letting down a flood of chestnut hair.
 Her mother, watching her, was thinking that at any rate Josephine's soJourn for nearly a year just off Washington square hadn't caused her to bob her hair like the other villagers. But aloud she merely said: Were all glad to have you home, dear. and the time will go all too quickly"
 By the way" said Josephine, as one to whom something has just oc- cured, "the last day of my stay I am expecting down to meet you all the man who wants to marry me-"
 Josephine" gasped her mother, sinking weakly down upon the bed. Josephine! And suppose 1t is one of those dreadful men you have been sec ing, with long hair and soft collars, and-and, oh, wish you had never, never gone down there!"
 Come, mother" urged Josephine, briskly, ''be sensible. He isn't as bad as all that!"

 You certainly did!" cried Josephine, and, seizing his hand, she faced her mystified family. Allow me-" she said, with sweepiA. regal gesture, ito introduce Richard Borden, my in- tended husband"
 "But-hOw about this Nedrobsky fellow?" cried Billy, giving utterance to what all the rest were thinking.
 "Why-that old name is only my fu- ture surname spelled backwards, with the sky added to give it the touch you all seemed to demand. l intended to give you just little surprise, but when you all insisted on ascribing to my friend all sorts of queer character istics l decided to play the game for all 1t was worth.
