An English newspaper suggests the
use of sgeneric names for household
help, as, for instance: palmer" for
parlor maid, "Jenny" for general,
"Scully" for scullery maid, and so on.
All very well, but suppose in the first
case there were three parlor maids,
would it distinguish them as palm"

Peculiarities.

Some Of the greatest peculiarities
of mankind are found among our most
noted literary men. Robert Browning
could not sit still. The constant
shuffling of his feet wore holes in the
carpet. Edgar Allan Poe slept with
his cat. and was very proud Of his
feet. Dickens was fond of flashy
jewelry. Oliver Wendell Holmes used
to carry horse-chestnut in one pocket
and potato in another to ward off
rheumatism. Hawthorn always wash
ed his hands before reading a letter
from his wife. Victor Hugo spoke
little; his remarks usually were made
IN the form of questions. Keats liked
red pepper on his toast. Edmund G.
Stedman had his favorite cat sit in
high chair at the table every day at
dinner. Count Leo Tolstoy went bare
footed and hatless the year round.
James Fenimore Cooper could not
write unless he had gum drops in his
mouth, He ordered them in ten
pound lots.--Howard Crimson.

Great Lakes cities. Some companies
imported the negroes By train loads.
Today these colored laborers are al
most entirely out Of work. Unable to
compete with white labor, when the
latter was available, the negroes were
first to lose their jobs. Employment
bureaus report that it is almost i'm
possible to find work for cOlored labor
at present.
Many Of these black families are
returning South, though It is reported
that they are unwelcome In their home
communities, where they are consid-
cred spoiled" by their experience in
the north. However, other thousands
of them, having saved no money, are
unable to leave the industrial centers.
1.-THE only element in this whole I'M
employed problem that really worries
me is the negro population" said Su-
perintendent C. L. Arndt, of the State
Employment Bureau m Cleveland.

In chapel on Tuesday morning,
Doctor Blake gave very impressive
and inspiring talk on the subject Of
positive good health. In the evening
she met the girls who take crest

Her talks to various groups of girls
were sane and wholesome, and were
delivered with much force. She said
great deal to uphold and help on the
positive health campaign which is al
ready being put into effect by the
Physical Education Department.
While here, Doctor Blake talked to
the Hi-Y girls Of Columbus. She also
gave her lecture on Emotions" to the
faculty. The Foot Film, which so
many saw last year, was shown at the
Princess on Wednesday afternoon. 1t

unemployed very long. We haven't
the funds to ship them back, but some
organization ought to see that they
get back to the South. The South
knows how to handle them, and we
do not. Also they cannot adapt them
selves to the climate or working con-
ditions here"
In this bureau, and at employment
bureaus IN Detroit, the writer saw
dozens Of negroes with silk shirts, no
collars, worn and turnover shoes, and
ragged clothes, waiting for jobs.
They sat helplessly on the benches,
waiting for the authorities to provide
them with jobs.

FINE REPORT OF
LAS. G. MEET
Our Representatives Report Fine
Session of international Stud
ent Government Conference.
(From The spectator)

(frOm Inc SPECTATOR
On the eighth of November, Ruth
Dickens and Ruth Crosby boarded the
train en- route to Elmira, N. Y, where
they were appointed to represent our
college at the annual conference Of
the Women's Inter- Collegiate Asso-
citation Of Student Government, which
convened at Elmira College. We feel
quite proud to hold membership in
this association, as only three South
EN- colleges are represented along
with well-known eastern colleges,
Smith, Wellesley, Vassar, and Rad
cliffe being. among them. For the
last five years, Mississippi State Col
lege has been represented at this con
ference, and we feel that this prac-
tice should be continued, as it means
much to the welfare of our Alma Ma
ter to get in closer touch with the col
leges of the east.
The conference was truly successful.
Many new ideas, and q great inspira-
tion to continue with more zeal and
enthusiasm the work of student gov
eminent, were gained. 1t seemed
from the viewpoint Of the delegates
that the most satisfying phase Of the
conference was the fact that all col
leges had practically the same prob
lens. 1t was indeed gratifying to
know that our college has an organi-
cation and spirit equally as admira-
BILE as that Of our sister colleges.
The delegates of the conference
gained great inspiration from a splen-
did talk by Mrs. Rosenberg, president
Of the Alumnae Association of Amer
lea. The responsibilities and obliga-
tions Of a college education, and the
four phases--intellectual, spiritual,
physical and social-to be secured
from such, were outlined and
discussed.
As forty-six eastern, northem and
Southern colleges were represented,
ideas and suggestions for a stronger
government were galore, and the del
egates of our college felt that many
such suggestions can well be adapted
for our government. We, too, had
many ideas to contribute, and our del
egates deemed it a great privilege to
do so.
Although Elmira, N. Y, is far from
US, we feel that the name of our col
lege was worthy of being carried
thousands of miles, and we would be
willing to do so again, if in the pro-
cess the name Of our Alma Mater
would be widely recognized.
The two Ruths, whom we are de-
cidedly proud to have as our own rep
resentatives, reported their trip in
chapel last Friday to keenly inter
ested audience. Their faces were ra-
diant with the new light gained, and
their messages were of real benefit
to us.

NEGROES ARE ANXIOUS Z
COME BACK SOUTH


Manufacturers and other employees
Of Columbus and vicinity are receiv-
ing numerous letters from former ne
gro employees urging them to supply
sufficient funds to bring them back
to Mississippi. It is estimated that
this state lost fully 100000 negroes
during the four-year exodus. and
while it is Of course unlikely that all
will return, Indications are that a
goodly percentage of them at least
want to come back, and are awaiting
the opportunity.
