Difficulties of Student Limitation by Colleges
Nearly Prohibitive
By DEAN EUGENE DAVENPORT, University of Illinois.

The sudden rise in college enrolment, following the war, often
eowding to capacity, gave rise to a kind of panicky consideration of the
question of limiting attendance.
1t is one question for al endowed institution a different question for
one supported by taxation. The latter can hardly consider the question OF
limitation, either by arbitrary methods or by raising the standards of adj
mission. The public considers that as it pays the bills, it is entitled to
service, and its position is sound.
The difficulties of limitation for any institution ARE well nigh pUhibi-
-MiMf ees will limit attendance, but that plan means that the.
nstitatHon~r - Glly for the wealthy i eatIance conditions are raised
much above the general level of the secondary schools, then the institution
exists for the favored few, mostly from large cities, or for the peculiar
class who are sharks at securing grades.
1t is feasible to reduce numbers by requiring strict attention to bust
ness after entrance, in that way eliminating the worst of all bad Students
The indifferent Junior and the senior who barely skins through.
There is some reason to believe that the intelligence test may be used
to supplant other mean of determining whether students should continue
in college work.

Proper Churning Conditions Will Vary With a
Number of Conditions
By A. s. AMBROSE, University of Illinois.

The proper churning temperature will vary with a number OF condl-
lions. one of the most important of which is the season OF the year. Dur
ing the spring and early summer the COWS receive mostly green feed. Dur
ing the lat. summer and early fall the cows receive less green feed and
nor dry feed. During late fall and winter dry feeds re used very largely
The character of the butterfat in the cream changes with the change
in the nature of the feed. Green, succuent feeds, such as spring pasture,
cause a very soft butterfat, while dry feeds cause the butterfat to be very
Arm. This change from season to season is a gradual one.
In general, a temperature should be maintained such as will cause the
butter to come in a period of from twenty to forty minutes and in a medi-
INN firm condition. The exact temperature required to bring this about
must necessarily be determined by experience, as it varies with local condi-
tions. The temperature will range from so degrees to GO degrees Fahren-
belt in spring and summer, and from Sc degrees to &c degrees Fahrenheit
IN fall and winter.

There Is No Such Thing as Style Nowadays; 1t

There is no such thing as style now. 1t is nothing but taste. Some

happers mother. Whatever it is, it is a mystery.
Women this year re wearing exactly what they please. Look at

They say colors arr not exactly fashionable. Did you ever see so much
color on this street before?
No, style is dead. If a woman wants to wear purple, she does; if she
likes black, she wears it. If she likes short sleeves, she forgets the long

many different varieties of rigs as you will see different women.

PUTTING IT OVER THE LAW

The old saying that there is more than one
way of killing a dog illustrates the proposition
that the officers and the law get up against very
often. Some time ago-a few years at least. the
city officials passed an ordinance against carnvals
coming to town. and in this way prevented them
coming for a while, till some guy got on to a new
scheme and gave the carnival a new name rodeo,
and il was not long till everything was a rodeo and
the same character OF performances and the same
equipment IS making the towns now as did before,
but under a new name. Only this week Lubbock
has with her a rodeo and though we have not been
inside the show grounds. are informed that
number of attractions have not been allowed 10
show here. but If they cannot be operated on ac-
count of not being within the law then we contend
that they should not be allowed 10 come to town
at ALL We cannot see that such attractions are
really of any benefit to the community but they
do take lot Of money away from town that could
be spent to much better advantage. True, people
must have some kind of diversion but by this We
do not think it should necessarily be OF nature
hat has 20 be he.gcd about by he laws OF the
land Good clean sport is to be commended AND
we have no special complaint at bronze riding
when properly carried on and that alone, and pos
siblv many other attractions offered that are
of no greater harm to the morals OF the community
but taking the whole cheese together we are Of
the opinion that such aggregations are OF no bene
fit whatever to the community in any way. and
should not be permitted to operate.

PUBLIC FUNCTIONS OF A NEWSPAPER

Perhaps Il is the fault Of the newspaper editor
that the public does not yet seem to understand the
function OF a newspaper with any thoroughness nor
does it seem to be able to discriminate between
news which is what happens in the world, editor
ials. which express the opinion of the newspaper
and communications and signed articles which ex-
press the opinions Of their writers alone.
1t is somewhat appalling, after newspaper has
laid its course in political campaign other
movement with great and taken every pre-
caution to be fair to all concerned and to make
its editorial policy clear and apart from the pub
licaton of the news to find some readers who have
not caught the spirit of the thing at all, and who
apparently have not understood the plain English
words which have been used. An editor wonders
lust how much of the responsibility is upon his
head.
Considering the heat of the recent primary
campaign it is perhaps surprising that there have
been so few who misinterpreted the news and ed-
torial policies of newspaper but Tor the beneht
of those few and the many who seem Interested
IN the technique of newspaper editing, let us lay
down the three main functions OF a newspaper from
the standpoint Of its text and aside froa the fea
lures which are printed to amuse and instruct but
which do not relate to news events.
The newspaper should CD print the news as It
happens accurately clearly, concisely without col
or or bias or editorial comment, and play II up
on one standards value; ~ PRINT ITS
comments its opinions oourageously and indepen-
IDENTIFY on its editorial page or, when printed else
where should clearly mark such matter it can
be recognized as editorial matter; CD open ITS
columns to any proper, n-scandaous, non-lIbel-
Gus communications from reader whether in sym
patty with the newspapers policy OF not making
reasonable rules as to length, originality of com
position and other details but not drawing these
as to exclude the opinions of its opponents
There is a class Of interpretatve dispatches and
news articles which. while not necessarily the oPn-
ion Of the paper are colored with the opinion OF
the correspondent writer These should be
designated by putting the of the writer or
source Of the news in a 'by-ne sigma
