ALILEO made the telescope and
IN brought to light unknown stars
and planets, the craters of the
moon, the rings of Saturn and other
things.
Properly used, the telescope is
wonderfully effective instrument.
But look through the wrong end and
your vision becomes distdrted;
things get out of focus; objects well
within your reach seem miles away.

N important province of this
~ newspaper is to act as your
telescope. Use it properly and
your vision is enlarged. That means
reading the advertisements as well
as the other news. Fail to read the
advertising and you overlook great
deal that you ought to see and know
the best in values-opportunities
for economy, increased comfort, con-
venience and happiness.
Advertising brings close to your
hand the things you want. Tells you
where to buy them-what they cost.
You CLEAN much valuable informa-
tion about merchants, their stores,
their goods, their services-all i'm
portant points to you as possible
purchaser.
You often add materially to the ef-
fectiveness of your purchases by
reading the advertisements of this

Students Attitude Causes Action of
 Faculty.

State College, Pa., June 4.-After months of consideration. in which there has been a steadily increasing sentiment against retention of the honor system as it has been in effect at the Pennsylvania State college for six years, the faculty last night voted unanimously in favor of its temporary suspension.
 A recent student vote failed to amend the system so as to place it on a more efficient basis to satisfy those students and faculty members opposed to it, and the faculty action has been accepted as the most logi- cal step.
 More cases of violation have been dealt with by the student honor court since the war period than in the four years preceding, and the aft CT war unrest is largely blamed for its not functioning properly.

 Washington. June 4.-Donal O'Calla- ghan, lord mayor of Cork, who came here six months ago as d stowaway to testify before the commission of the committee of 100 investigating the Irish question, is believed by officials of the department of labor to have returned to Ireland. The lord mayor was given classification in this country as a sea- man and allowed until midnight next Monday to leave the United States.
 E. J. Hennig, assistant secretary of labor said today that the department had "every reason to believe that be- fore the time limit allowed O'Callaghan to leave he will have shipped aboard another ship
 ''As a matter of fact" he added, i've believe that he is already safely back in Ireland, although we have no official information to that effect. His attorneys assured us that he would leave the country according to the rul- ing of the secretary. The last that I have heard of him was through news paper reports that he was in Chicago April s.
 Pointing out that friends of the lord mayor claimed that there was a prob ability that British authorities might undertake to arrest him on his return voyage, MT. Hennig said it was possible that some officials friendly to O'Calla- ghan had held up the report of his de- parture. He explained that this would not be breach of regulations as there was no requirement that his departure be reported immediately.
