PROF. II. +. COLESTOCK'S
LECTURE

On Monday morning Professor
Colestock gave his last lecture to the
Summer School, in the College Chap.
ell. His subject, THE Relation of the
Strong and the Weak was an inn
portant one and was handled in a
mastery way. Tracing up the history
Of the race, he showed how this has
always been the greatest question.
In early times it was solved by the
strong enslaving the weak. In the
Middle Ages it was solved by the
weak gathering around the strong in
the Feudal System, on basis of lana
ownership by the lords. In the mod
ern industrial and I commercial age
the strong are in control of the cap
ital and are the directors of industry.
The relatively weak serve them for
wage, but are now organized to
protect themselves and conflicts oc-
cur. The problem of the weak and
the strong has never been solved 1t
is not now solved.
There is only one solution and that
is the one set forth by the far-seeino
religious teacher about two thousand
years ago when He said that the
strong must serve the weak"
Wherever tried, even in partial
way, that has always worked Wheth.
err we will or not, the gospel truth
must be applied to industrial rela-
tions, Unless il is we are drifting
into revolution in which the weak
will destroy the strong, a revolution
worse than any that has yet occur
red.
Professor COlestock has lectured to
the Summer School every Monday
morning during the ten week term.
His lectures have been strong, well
worked out, interesting and sugges-
tive. True to history and the modern
thought, his lectures ring with a deep
moral tone. All of the lectures have
been good, but this one is exceptional
and worthy of wide delivery. He
will always be welcomed in Berea.

BILL

Bill never won a great renown,
He never piled up scads Of gold;
His name will not 20 laundering
down
The ages as a hero bold;
He lived quite little life
Here by the common dusty way
Away from scenes of mighty strife,
And seldom had thing TO say.
But Bill was always drifting by
With cheerful joy upon his lips,
And happy laughter in his eye,
Hand open for glad comradeships;
The children loved him for his smile,
And listened for his kindly song,
They didn't mind his lack of style,
Nor sheer because his legs were
long.
So softly did he come and go,
Folks hardly knew that he was here,
He never knew the spot-lght's glow,
He did not dent the atmosphere
With overpowering wads of thought
But now that he has passed away
The simple joy of his kindness
wrought
Is like prayer around the day.

Whence the "kee-Wee."

During the late war officers In the
army air service were classified as
flying officers or ground officers, the
latter being used for administrative
work and for all other duties not &C.
tually requiring flight. Much jeal.
ousy existed at some fields between
the flyers and the non-fyers.
II was a naturalist among the flyers
who aptly expressed for his fellows a
title fitting their mortal enemies. He
dubbed the ground officers as "Kee-
Wees" The name spread, yet few
know the reason for the title. II was
while looking up the word aptitude"
in the dictionary that an air service
officer stumbled on the right dope !:
"Apteryx"-A bird native Of New
Zealand without wings or tail. Can
not fly; called by natives, "Kee-wee."

c. ID. LEWIS SCIENCE CLUB

Did you know that the progeny
from one wintered-cover female
house-fy during a season, if unharm-
ed, amounts TO over 100000, 900
flies? These flies placed end to end
would reach over 304 times around
the earth. This is assuming that all
eggs hatch and all flies live and all
the female flies lay eggs. Fortu-
nately for us this is not so. There
are a great many things preventing
the Matching of eggs and the full de-
velopment Of the flies. Flies cannot
breed without some dirty, filthy
place. Clean up your filth. Flies
live only few weeks, three or six.
Can you distinguish a male grass
hopper, cricket or katydid from the
female by hearing it hollow? That
is easy. II you hear one hollow, you
may know it is a male because fe-
male grasshoppers, crickets and katy
dds are dumb.
With the closing of school this
week vacation Of about four weeks
begins. The Science Club will post
pone further activities until school
opens in September. When school
opens again the club will be greatly
increased. So you may expect some
lively work from us then. Send
your questions in now if you wish.
They will be taken up as soon as
school opens.

Yet for the sake OF saving five or
ten or twenty cents. sometimes, some
Of us ignore the existence Of the tele-

fore dinner. You are delayed at the

about the change Of your plans. Or
you are delayed by a block on the
subway or street car line on the way
TO friends house for luncheon en-
arriving threequarters Of an hour
late, full Of apologies. Or perhaps
you take taxi to the station to
catch train to q friends house for
weekend visit. The taxi Is caught
in traffic jam and you miss the

The Spoon.

The first spoon was the palm Of the
hand. Afterward people used shells
they got at the seashOre. Then they
thought Of fitting handles on shells
Though spoons were used ages ago In
ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome. 1t
was long time before they we're used
in the west Of Europe. So late as the
Fifteenth century the highest form Of
the spoon was the shell with the
handle. But by the time Louis XIV
reigned In France the modern daintily
decorated spoon was used.

WHY q
~
DO SERVANTS -
WEAR LIVERY

A S MIGHT be deduced from the
"A fact that the word "livery" 10 Of
French Origin-derived from the verb
"livrer," ito deliver"-the custom Of
clothing servants In a uniform started
In France where IL was the habit OF
the early French kings to give
clothes TO their servants. Because
these outfits were given or delivered
free of charge, the uniforms were
spoken of as ''liveres" and the Gus
tom gradually spread until ,all OF
the nobility and even some Of the
gentry were clothing their servants.
AS a means of differentiating between
the servants Of various houses, the
uniforms were made OF contrasting
cOlors and varying styles. and the
French verb, when translated into
English, became ''livery."
In England, however, the term has
had a number OF meanings. During
the reign Of Edward Nv, for example.
II appears TO have been synonymous
with badge" because this mark OF
service consisted Of a crest or coat
of-arms worn upon the left sleeve
much as the men Of the American
eXpeditionary force wore an arm
badge or insignia to designate the
regiment to which they belonged.
Like other uniforms, Vhe servants
livery gradually became standardized
and today there is far less latitude
In the choice ~ saryants' clothing OF
this kind than there was In the
Middle ages.

RAGwEED AND Hay FEVER

As ! return TO Berea after a two
months sojourn in q clean, neatly
kept little town just about the size
Of Berea, my first impression Is that
unfavorable one caused by rank
growth of weeds, not only in vacant
lots, but along the streets and side
walk, next to buildings, in back
yards and even in the cemetery.
Today a friend hailed me as ! was
walking thru the campus, and az he
approached me he said, "Well, doctor
-hh-f-f-m-z-z-IVe got the hay
fever again" And as ] happened at
that instant to catch a view over his
shoulder, ! saw growing, not fifty
feet distant, a large patch Of rag
weeds FIVE or six feet in height.
Some say IL is just the hot weather
and dust, but it is really the pollen
Of such weeds as rag-weed, jimson,
burdock. thistle, cockle-burr and Of
many others that burden the air and
is borne into every breathing space
in the town that is responsible for
hay fever.
These growing weeds should be de-
clared nuisance. The u. S. public
health service recommends for all
towns and villages in the country
ordinances making it an offense TO
permit the growth Of such weeds in
vacant lots or elsewhere within the
town limits at least.
Such an ordinance has greatly di-
minished the invidence of hay fever,
as has been proved in Chicago where
such an ordinance has been in effect
since 1917. Following is the ordi-
nance as it stands: ANY person
who so controls vacant lot, either
as owner, lessee, agent or otherwise,
who shall suffer or permit the growth
of weeds or grass thereon contrary
to the provisions of Section one
hereof, OF who shall refuse or neg
lect to cut or cause to be cut such
weeds or grass within five days af-
ter being notified to do so by the
Commissioner Of Health, who is here
by designated as the officer who shall
enforce the provisions of this ordi-
nance shall be fined not less than five
dollars or more than one hundred dol
lars for each offense, and a separate
and distinct offense shall be regard
ed as committed each day that such
growth Of weeds OF grass is permit
ted to remain on such lot after the
expiration of the notice given by the
Commissioner of Health"
Section three also provides that in
case of failure to comply with the
above, the Commissioner of Health
may cause the weeds to be cut and
charge expense thereof to person
who controls the lot.
The hay fever season is already well
advanced, and il is too late TO take
any compulsory measures, nor should
they be necessary. A proper appre-
citation of the importance of Kidding
ourselves Of a nuisance, being both
menace to health and unsightly in
appearance should "do the work"
Each property owner or tenant by
clearing up his premises will set the
example, and it should not be long
before the neglected place would be
the exception.

And send him forth around the globe
To beg OF steal.

To load thy servant down with

He won't preach what tell him TO,
And calls me CROOK"
