MR. W. D. WILLIAMS Subscription price one dollar a year: slngle copies ten cents, except special issues. - Entered as second-class matter at the Pat- erson Post Dmce, April, 1902. Departing from a usual custom, the Semi-Annual SPECTATOR is being pub- lished ln the month of May instead of June. It has been necessary to do this for several reasons which we pass over here but which we assure you are weighty enough to warrant the change. O U 0 To a very great degree, the compilation of this issue is due to the efficient and faithful endeavor of the following mem- bers of the graduating class: David P. Quackenbush, Lucille Kaufman, Matilda Phster, Helen Blauvelt, Philip Hall and Alexander Becker. U i if The childish and idiotic display of ludi- crous neckwear still continues, indicating, of course, that the Frats have not yet been broken up. What is the matter with the Student Council? Has It deserted this problem altogether? GOING T0 COLLEGE It is yearly the experience of a great number of Seniors to wake up to the necessity of choosing a college and mak- ing preparations for entrance thereto. It is then that their troubles begin, for col- leges widely differ ln the requirements of admission. Our advice to the under- graduate ls to send for four or nve col- lege catalogues, select the college which he likes best, and then take up his college problems with the College En- trance Commtttee, which will render htm very valuable assistance. Don't put it off. Do it now and save trouble and disap- pointment in your Senior year. 30'

u 'rim SPECTATGR WAR RELICS A German helmet may not teach you much of anything about the battle of the Marne, but it will help you to visualize the realities of that and many other struggles of the great war. With this purpose in mind the Department of History has begun a collection of war relics which is to be encased within a cabinet that will be placed ln a. conspicuous location in the school. The case will be of inestimable interest to future students of the Euro- pean War as well as being a requisition unto the school of which we may all be well proud. This is a splendid idea, and it is only to be regretted that this plan had not been thought of long ago. We hope that the collection will broaden its scope to include a general historical museum. SMOKING The student who smokes is breaking two things-his health and the law. As to the former, all authorities agree that smoking is positively detrimental to the normal development of the mind and body of youths. Dr. George T. Meylan, director of the gymnasium of Columbia University, took a careful survey of the relative physical measurements, rates of growth, and scholarship of 185 college men who were smokers and 118 men who were non-smokers. He discovered 117 that the smokers were on the average eight months older, which means that they had entered college this much later: and f2l that the scholarship standing of smokers was distinctly lower than that of the non-sn1okers, showing that the use of tobacco by college students is closely associated with ldleness, lack of ambition. lack of application and low scholarship. With these facts before us, no student can with justice to himself go on smoking. Cut lt out! But, fortunately, for those who have not the will power to stop smoking, there 31 -are adequate laws to stop lt for them. :There ls .a definite' ruling upon this matter by the Board of Education. lt states in no uncertain words that students to and from school and during school hours must not smoke: expulsion from school being possibly the slightest punish- ment that can be meted out to offenders. To those who smoke-and the number is small--beware! It ls a. very costly per- formance, and lt not only is costing you your health, but lt may cost you your education, which means your future.
