Relation Of Good Citizenship.

an China there existed in the past.
and there are evidences that il is com
ing to life again, the religion of good
citizenship" says a writer in Asia
Magazine. "rhat is TO say, the Chi
nese theory is that a man does not
need TO feel the need Of physical force
to protect himself; he has seldom the
need even to call In and use the physi-
cal force of the policeman-of the state
to protect him. A man in China Is
supposed TO be protected by the sense
of justice OF his neighbor; he IS pro-
tected by the readiness of his fellow
men TO obey the sense of moral obliga-
ton. The ideal OF Chinese civilization,
therefore, Is that q man can not feel
the need Of using physical force TO
protect himself because he Is sure that
right and justice Is recognized by all
his neighbors as force higher than
physical force, and that moral obliga-
ton as recognized by everybody is
something that must be obeyed."

FTOSh Are Defeated
In the Class Rush

The huge streaming banner" of
the Glass Of '24 Haunted defiantly
from a pole on Davis Field Friday
morning. The Frosh with their faces
daubed with black war paint, were
on hand early. A large crowd gath
cred to witness the fray, and the first
year girls kept up a continuous cheer
for their boys at Che front. A few
minutes before six o'clock the Sophs
arrived and took their position. Ref
cree Campbell broke the armistce and
the Frosh rushed for the pole. The
force Of the onslaught nearly crushed
the Sophomore's defense, but they
quickly rallied and the fight was on.
Time and again a Frosh would leap
over the swcltering mass and start up
the pole, only to be pulled down by
the nose or eyelashes, whichever hap
pened to be handicst. When five min
utcs were up, both sides were tired
out, but were still determined. At the
end Of eight minutes their tongues
were hanging out. The Sophs acted
as though they didn't care whether
they kept the flag or not, and the
Fresh seemed to have decided that
they didn't want the rag anyway.
The flag was still there when time
was called. 1t was a good fight, and
there were no slackers. Any one
who didn't witness the rush can hear
it rchearsed three times day at
Pioneer Hall for the next six weeks.

WHERE FROGS ARE CHICKENS
Tariff Laws Of the United States Say
They Are Same and Alike In
Three Counts"

To one not versed I'm tariff law, or
familiar with the devious and tortu-
Gus channels OF reasoning followed
only by customs legal luminaries, some
of the decisions at first appear to be
rather odd. Frogs have become chick.
ems for tariff purposes. venison has
been held 10 be beef and live snaiis
have soberly been decided 10 be nonenu-
merated manufactured articles, re-
marks the San Francisco Chronicle.
Reason begins To totter on its throne
AMI completely tumbles off when one
learns that a iircbrlck weighing under
five pounds IS friedrich weighing over
five pounds. Reason, however, can pick
up its scepter and climb back TO Its
easy chair with sigh OF relief after
reading wonderful paragraph I'm the
law known as the similitudc clause.
If an article is not provided for, either
by name or material, and has one OF
four characteristics OF an article that
Is provided for II takes the same rate
of duty. If the homeless article re-
sombles any other article either I'm
material. quality, texture or In use
10 which IL may be applied 1t becomes
that article for tariff purposes. Frog
meat IS similar-to the white meat OF
chicken In three counts, venison scores
on one for the reason that both ven
ison and beef are eaten and flrebricks
weighing under five pounds are used
In exactly the same manner as those
weighing over five pounds.
