Grams of Foreign Wars, G. A. r.. those
who wore the gray of the civil war,
the Spanish War Veterans, the wom-
ans auxiliaries, the Red Cross and
other bodies to formulate plans by
which a well organized procession
might be had? Let the members of
these different bodies give a little
time and attention to their forma-
tions, SO that the spectators who line
the streets may appreciate the fact
that they are representative bodies
not merely a collection Of individuals.

The Argonaut Mine Tragedy.

Yale's Ban on Automobiles,

Yale is not the first college to ban
the automobile for undergraduates
but it is the second large university
to do so by formal order. Yale does
not consider the automobile a neces-
sary part Of young gentleman's COL
lege training, and the undergraduates
cannot keep or operate cars around
New Haven without special permis-
sion.
The hardship this will impose upon
BILE for any one who has lived in a
college town to realize. What is
the undergrad to do il he can't tool
his. car through Che streets at forty
miles an hour with a hatless crew
Of his fellows? How can a senior
make any hit at all round the state
II he can't roll up in big six? 1t
is positive crime to have to wait
for trains. Think of the time lost
How are those dodos who teach eff
cheney in college going to get round
that? Gee. all there'll be left to
do nights now is study or hang round
the campus. What's the college life
coming to? The boys who went to
college twenty years ago had the
real time.
Well. perhaps. they did. at Yale and
other colleges. And they had the
time without automobiles. for auto
mobiles were then curiosities. They
they learned to sing on the fence.
They had time to cultivate acquAint-
ances in their classes. They had
rushes. knock-dow and drag-out at
fairs that cemented them closer as a
class than classes get nowadays.
There was not that saturday
exodus" which has been the problem
Of every university within 100 miles
of big city. Men actually liked to
stay in their rooms and spend even
ings in discussion. They didn't think
a flfty-mile spin after supper neces-
sary to either health or education
and, If they had, they couldn't have
taken 1t.
No doubt the order will cause q
ruction at Yale. but Yale isn't the
first college to issue the order.

T is astonishing how many COM

find the proper vibration that will

the world progress more rapidly to-
