HARSH PUNISHMENT

It seems rather harsh punishment to mete out against a distinguished student at Harvard and the author of the class hymn, to dismiss him on the eve of graduation for having written the roem in the form of all obscene anagram. Those of a synl- pathetic disposition will be inclined to credit the explanation of friends that the start of the anagram was an accident, and that the student completed it in the spirit of pro- vidinz a joke for those who might happen to trace the obscenity Where the youth made his mistake, how ever was to imagine that the faculty and the student body as a whole would not notice it. It is difficult to imagine an intelligent youth falling a victim to such foolish error. The college has divested him of his opportunity to obtain his sheepskin. but cannot divest him of his educa- ton. Tn after life will he recall the experience with laughter or with sorrow? Proba bly the latter.

THE LATEST TURN IN THE
 GASOLINE WAR

Judge Yeomans of Superior court placed his finger on the weakness of the Franklin square anti-gasoline station crusade, as many an observer feared and anticipated. The weak ness is that the striction against the gasoline station in this industrial zone l. more stringent than the re- striction in business zones. The re- maining question then is has the Common Council the power to make such . differentiation when public opinion in the industrial zone de- mands 1t? Judge Yeomans says it hasn't. Unless the case is appealed, the Standard Oil has won. In case of appeal there is likely to be delay of another year before the final de- termination.
 With the square dominated by churches. residences. and the high school at one end, it was denomin- ated an industrial zone. If the anti gasoline forces lose in case of appeal the fault will be with the way the territory was zoned.

AN ODE TO NEW PAVEMENTS
 IN WALNUT HILL PARK

Having noted no ballyhoo about the newly paved main driveways in Walnut Hill park, we feel inclined to plunge into the breach and say something nice about them. They went into service few days ago, and not an autoist in the city who has had occasion to use them but has been unsparing in kind words for the splendid work performed by the park board. It is now actually possible 10 drive into the park with out the danger Of suffering a broken spring Indeed. the driving is like passing over a polished board: the movement is so pleasant that il is possible for the backseat driver to read newspaper-if anyone were inclined to read while passing through through such a beautiful ex- pIeSSlOIl Ol nature dS " dlluI Hill park.
 For the first time in the history of the park the main drives have been laid down upon a rock foundation. instead Of upon dirt foundation as in past years. This will provide a , longer life for the pavement. and smoother travel for a longer period of time.
 The new pavements. the first con- stfucted this year. are a credit to the city. Autoists from everywhere. en- terins the park 10 get a closeup view Of the magnificent war me- morial. will not have a bad memory :. to take with them regarding the | pavemen,s.

TRYING TO LOCATE THE NEED
 FOR A CITY AIRPORT

It was stated some time ago that men who have the progress of the city next to their hearts met to dis cuss the airport project. Everyone agreed as to the desirability of the city possessing an airport. but when it was found advisable to list the 'undoubted advantages" of such 6 port the conversation Jagged No one 1t seemed. had straightforward idea as 10 the definite desira bility Of the airport based on it's proba ble use by aviators
 That. of course. is a hard nut to crack. Listing the advantages of an airport in q city of this size is like attempting to discover the advan- tsge of possessing municipal audi torium. an astronomical observatory. or q fish hatchery. Some of the ad- Ndntdees are lndellnlte, llluSory. or defying analysis. Yet everyone feels that such advantages exist. The dif- ficulty is to translate ones emotions about the subject down on paper and have them take on pragmatic value.
 Almost every air minded person. and those who are due to become air-minded if they live long enough. is convinced that the greatest need of aviation is increased safety in the air. Such safety is vastly more likely if there are airports scattered within easy calling distances along the

 Who are not afraid of mice.
 Who can balance their check books.
 Who can drive to the railway sta ton without opening their purses three or four times to make sure of the tickets and baggage checks.
 Who are unconscious of the rouge on their lips.
 Who can get in and out of boats gracefully.
 Who can pick up stitches lost in knitting.
 Who can get up a delicious im- promptu supper out of an onion, the meat left from last nights dinner and tin of lobster paste.
 Who sit unmoved when tray of cocktails (which. after all. is more important than tn ceiling) falls.
 Who are not afraid to cross the street Who can go on diet without mentioning it. Who do not plunge into minor suits when sitting on the left of a 1 mo- trump. Who know a bad cut of beei when they see it. Who pour tea casually. Who return the handkerchiefs | you lend them. | Who know what they want to eat when they pick up d restaurant menu.
 Who do not present complete change of front when man come: into the room. Who manage their children witt | d hand of iron in a velvet glove. 1 Who can be tr:.sted to selec' lampsh ides. !
