Trend IL Toward Decency
John Straub, dean OF men at the
University Of Oregon. although de-
cidedly Of the older generation, Is m
ardent champion Of the collegian Of
today. He said: Il have been here
fifty years and can say there is less
drinking among our 5000 students
than among 5000 picked at random
In city. Our students are neat In
appearance and the general trend
Is toward deccncy, high ideals and
better manhood and womanhood."
George b. Culver. dean Of men ut
Leland Stanford university said:
THE collegiate is fast disappearing
and there Is a noticeable change dur.
Ing recent years as to improved per-
sonal appearance and dress. The
so-called collegiate does not long
survive at Stanford. The present
generation In reality works much
harder than the early college gen.
erations because the world demands
better trained men and women"
Thomas Arkle Clark, dean Of men
at the University Of Illinois, stated:
"Necking Is more open but not more
common than 1t once was. I think
there Is less drinking now than there
was once In college. Eighty per cent
OF our students are doing as much
work as we ought to expect them to
do. Fifteen per cent are getting by,
and five per cent are pretty hopeless.
The student today Is very careful Of
his dress"
c. William McClclland, vice provost
Of the University of Pennsylvania
said: There is very little character
istic collegiate dress among our stu
dents. probably because OF our situa-
ton In large city. The collegiate
type Is diminishing. In general our
student bodies are composed Of rea-
sonably serious young people whose
ideals and standards of conduct COM
pare favorably with those Of preced-
Ing generations"

An old Belgian war hero. who

For "Louf." as he was called in

Found In Agony
His master, Ernie Gates Of Moor

Tuesday, writhing In agony.
haps those comrades are wondering
to your bed, Louf," he said.
Louf struggled to his feet. his body
ct attention, his head erect and his
ears cooked In answer to the com.
mand. But he sank down again.
Then, halt dragging his tortured
body to the head Of the basement
stairs he staggered. and rolled life
less to the hard floor beneath. His
body never moved after that. The
old soldier was read.
Louf was believed to have been the
largest Belgian police dog In the
United States. according to his own
er. He weighed ll5 pounds and tow
cred above ordinary police dogs like
Z giant. Yet he was kind and gentle.
When he was young-h9 was more
than u years old when he died
Louf was trained for Red Cross work,
and was given to Z machine gun COM

Of Moorhead. The dog was the COM
pany's mascot and saw q great deal
Of action. It Is said that he helped
rescue many 4 wounded man and that
he often carried water to the MANNED
and dying. His comrades loved him,
and In return he gave his undivided
loyalty. But that Is natural With all
dogs. and Louf was no exception.
In 1919 Lieutenant Torson returned
to the United States. bringing with
him the company's beloved mascot,
somebody In New York City, the story
goes, wanted to buy him. He offered
4 fabulous sum, but ToYSon would not
part with him.

"Louf" led the Armistice parade. It
must have been . great day for the
pair, with "Louf" striding along with
his master, his great body erect and
ready for any command. That was
something the Red Gross workers had
taught him..
At the word attention" he quickly
assumed = posture Is nearly similar
to that Of his human companions a

tricks. toe, ana he understood the
french language well. He displayed
unusual delight when an occasional
French word WAS spoken.
HIS master says he will not soon
