and that since there were many
obviously unfair acts, the election

Re-fo- re

HYMN CLOSES .MEETING
Declaring that she did not mind
her afflictions because she felt that
God was working out some sot purpose, Helen Keller, who has spent
most of her life conquering handicaps under which the ordinary person would have done nothing, addressed an audience of several
persons
last Tuesday
thousand
night at the Woodland auditorium.
Miss Keller was brought to Lex
ington by the Woman's club of
central Kentucky to present an ap-- ;
peal for support for the American
Federation toV the Blind and to ask
for contributions for the touncla- Hons endowment fund.
Miss Polly Thomson, tier secretary, stood by her side durum t lie
lecture and repeated her words for
the benefit of those unable to understand them,
The aim of education. Miss Keller
said, is to teach people how to find
out things tor themselves, and not
to show them what they don't
know.
In supixirt of the teachers ot the
world Miss Keller said. "It is disgraceful not' to pay the teachers
their salaries; they have never been
paid enough anyway, and are re
ceiving less now. Teachers foster
civilization and the nations with
the best teachers will have the best
civilization."
"If we used all our five senses
the world would be much more
beautiful," Miss Keller continued,
"and we would then abolish everything that is hideous or distasteful."
The program was concluded by
Miss Keller joining the audience in

HONESTY

A

DECEPTION

About the time that the pinched
midriffs of the Floradora Sextette
were acclaimed tU? ultimate in
feminine pulchritude back In the
dear, dead days of the early nine
teen hundreds the face of a crook
was. In fact, his fortune.
If he happened to be endowed
by nature with an open and engaging countenance, he could live
indefinitely by his wits provided
he was reasonably lucky and did
n't visit the same university twice.
For universities, with their open- handed fashion for exchanging
for paper documents,
education
which In banking circles are known
as checks, have long been vulner
able as points of attack for bad
check artists and persons of similar
predatory habits.
If you are an average individual
you are doubtless averagely honest
It is doubtful that you are entirely
honest. You probably have lied to
your sweetheart, if there are such
things, or, In all likelihood, have
cheated on examinations; but that
is no pardonable reason why you
should give the registrar a worth
less check for your registration fee
Losses through bad checks be
come a part of the university's
overhead, and overhead expenses
must be borne partly by the charges
which It makes for tuition.
Of
course the University may with
hold the student's credits and deny
him the privilege of being graduated until his delinquency has been
stricken from the registrar's records; but that is not a solution of
the immediate financial problems
of the University. The student may
cease matriculating and leave the
campus without making good his
worthless check which he gave for
tuition. However, the student may
have the intention of paying the
debt within a year or two; but the
University in turn suffers the immediate loss of that student's tuition which would go toward meeting the financial expenditures of
the institution.
Such financial
trickery cannot be borne by the
University indefinitely.
Something
has to be done about it.
We hope that what has been said
will not be construed as pessimistic.
While there is no such thing as an
honest face, there is certainly such
a thing as honesty. This may be
due to the general economic condition of the country, but we pre-lto think that it owes itself another factor the prevalence of dishonesty among students who want
something for nothing.

Dishonest merchandising
Similarly, men

who have sufficient general competence to be successful bad check
artists will discover that they will
be more prosperous
and much
happier by turning their talents to
legitimate pursuits.

College Alumni, whose slogan Is,
"from books to breadlines." recently
bus communicated with representatives In colleges and universities
throughout the country asking sup-po- rt
for nn assembly to be held In
Washington. May 2 and 3.
It Is the object of the association
to draw up the basis for a program
remedial legislation
of permanent
at this assembly. It seems that it
does not have any clearly defined
Idea as to Just what the legislation
is to be, but it is sure that there
"ought to be a law."
The association feels that If It
stages a demonstration and keeps
the plight of the thousands of Jobless Ph.D.'s. M D.'s, Ll.B.'s. etc..
before the eyes of the president,
he will do something to benefit existing conditions. An academic procession in taps and gowns of unemployed educational and professional men has been planned; after
which the Secretary of Labor will
open the sessions.
The plan has been endorsed by
Charles Beard, the historian, John
Dewey. Morris Raphael Cohen and
Reinhold Niebuhr who are noted
philosophers, by Iago Galdston of
the Academy of Medicine, and by
Stephen Pierce Duggan. director of
the Institute of International Education.
