Capital Many years ago when the
British mission was a legation, the
Minister. Mr.. Sackville-W was a
widower and his two unmarried
daughters shared the duties of host
ess at the Legation.
Lady Minna Butler ThWing, sis

bassador, was expected to join him
in Washington to preside at En-
bassy parties. But there is nothing
definite and, with the European
conditions as they have developed
In the last few days, her coming Is
problematical.
The Marques of Lothian, although
here less than a week, already has
made friends in circles where there
has scarcely been even a contact
with former Ambassadors. His first
day here was so completely filled
that he had little time to think OF
his clothes and attended the mid
week service at his church in the
suit he wore when he was received
by the President.

New Bell Installed

The typing room now boasts a
new bell or, more correctly, an in
flnltesimal buzzer that does amaz-
ingly well in making itself heard.
For the past several years before
this year, the tipping students were
fitfully awakened at the end of
periods by a very ordinary bell
But the vibration of the typewrit-
ers wore il out and it took its turn
for sleeping
AT the beginning Of this term, a
bell with very impatient rasping
voice was installed. 1t was sup
posed that it could Withstand the
opposition of vibrating typewriters.
Of course, that part Of it was all
right but it did its duty too well.
and the vibrations of the bell wore
out the nerves of the students, SO
IT had TO be removed.
So recently, the new buzzer ap-
peared. 1t works very we'll; the
nerves of the students are spared
and they are warned sufficiently
when to move to the next class.

Editorial

Do you always make it a point to
be in school on time, or are you
the kind of student who leaves for
school sometime between nine and
ten o'clock in the morning? Nothing
causes more needless confusion than
student who clatters into the
study hall about five minutes after
classes have passed, fumbles nois-
lily for his books, and finally, after
much scuffling and TODD, is seated
in the class room where it is neces-
sary for the teacher to start from
the beginning again.
Certainly breakfast had to be
eaten, but wouldn't it have been
better to eliminate those extra for
ty Winks" or to get a dependable
alarm clock?
Many times we've heard students
say, What if | am few minutes
late. After all, is school really that
important? Yes, school is import
ant, but even more important than
that is the fact that the object of
school is to prepare us for life and
punctuality and dependability
should be learned before all else.
If you're often tardy, try getting
up earlier for few mornings and
you'll soon see that it is easier to
get up on time and be able to walk
to school than to sleep late and have
to make wild cross-country dash
for the school.

DON'T BLAME THE BANKS
