Restoring Venus. The Rokeby Venus, the beautiful painting in the British National gal lery which was slashed by a militant suffragist, has been so deftly repaired that the damage done cannot be de tected by the ordinary observer. As a concession to properly accredited art student6 the gallery, which was closed to the public after the outrage, has been reopened to them. Trying to Do Too Much. Many Dusiness men are coming to the conclusion that they would accom plish more if they attempted less. Life is becoming overcrowded. A succes sion of little things fill the time thai could more wisely be used for the con templation of great tasks and the con templation of lofty purposes. To sim plify is to strengthen. Life is more1 than a mere round of engagements; il 1b a conscious enjoyment and employ ment of the spirit's highest capacities Starvation in Japan. Failure of the rice crop and the fishing industry have brought the dis tricts of Tohoku and Hokkaido, north- J ern Japan, one of the worst famines that the country has faced in a hun dred years. Cold weather prevented the rice from heading'out, and un- 3u ally cold currents have kept the fish at great distances from the shore. A conservative estimate places the number who are now in urgent need of food at 200,000. April Fool Day. There are all sorts of theories as to the origin of the merry anniversary, but the most plausible is the one which gives the custom its use in France, about 1564. France was the first European country to adopt the reformed calendar, and as a result the hew Year day was carried back to January 1, and mock calls were made on April 1, as a joke on such as had forgotten the change in the calendar. n CHAI ISL Oaii+Ii i k?U IJL UJLJL1 Premi I Greenville, Abbevi on the followii Leave Greenville Leave College PI Leave Piedmont Leave Pclzer ...

Ruskin on Traveling. To any person who has all his senses about him, a quiet walk, over not more than ten or twelve miles of road a day, is the most amusing of all trav eling; and all traveling becomes dull in exact proportion to its rapidity. Go ing by railroad I do not consider us traveling at all; it is merely "being ' - -1 3 eeni lO a place, unu veijr iiiuc? uiuer ent from becoming a parcel.? Ruskin. Recognize Laws of "Chance." The laws of "chance," or the theory of probabilities, have been adopted by the men of science. Until recently the only persons who bothered their heads about the problems that arise in calculating probabilities were gam blers and speculative mathematicians. Now the student of physics is obliged I to understand them and use them con | stantly. When Vapor Is Dry. It is a popular misconception that aqueous vapor and ice are wet They are in themselves dry, and become wet only when they turn to water.

Wu Ting Fang on American Children, The youth of America have not un naturally caught the spirit of their eid erB, so that even children consider themselves almost on a par with their parents, while the parents, on the other hand, also treat thera as if they were equals, and allow them the ut most freedom, writes Wu Ting Fang in Harper's Magazine. While a Chi nese child renders unquestioning obedience to his parents' orders, such obedience as a soldier yields to his superior officer, the American child must have the whys and the where fores duly explained to him, and the reason for his obedience made clear. It is not his parent that he obeys, but expediency and the dictates of reason. studies uaroago oysiem.
