onJ degree murder ot girl and
face a a sentence of from ton to
twenty yeurs In prison.

New York convicted of first degree
murder of ft girl and will bo exe

was no great lii'f' T rico In the re

MQt'OIt AND Al'TOR
Princeton continues Its campaign
j to dlseoiiriiirn tho use of automo
: lilb s by undergraduates on tho
M-ore i!:;it automobiles and study
I ilo not mix. But that la not nil.
The university authorities also are
of tho opinion that automobiles In
the hands of some students accom
pany the uso of liquor.
This is a rather aeiious charge.
The Implication Is unavoidable that i
the school authorities consider tho
exhilaration of uutomolillq driving
rails for that stimulation which
cornea w ith strong drink. Though
the environs of Trlnceton may bo
as clear ot guzzling as a church,
the automobile enables student
drivers to cover much territory In
search of the cup that cheers, mak-
ing unsteady tha hand at the wheel
and causing the mind that studies
to become stupifled with dizziness
during the Inevitable hangover.
If there are students at Prince
ton who cannot drive an automo
bile without seeking out the road
. houses whero liquor is as Important
! as meat, then there Is nothing to
' do but to eliminate the transpor
tation methods. But It Is hard to
J believe that antoing by students
! necessarily leads to the crimson
path to drink.
! The fault must lie with the five
! per cent or so Of undergraduates
who think It smart to mix strong
drink with their student days.
. These existed long before the au
tomobile was invented,
i .Students who are poor at study
. ing could bo eliminated .if the unl
jversity authorities were willing to
' injure their feelings. More study
and less tomfoolery at colleges
could .be brought about, by the au
'; thorities, but half the time they
are unwilling to go that far.
' There is more discipline amoni
! grade school children than there Is
in some ot our universities.
l(M-l'ASSi;.Gr.n PLANE
To read the rosy forecasts of
airplane interests, the time when
passenger air service will be a regu
larity and r.of. a novelty in this
country is near at hand. j
Take, for instance, the state-mint j
of the gentleman who a year or I
so ago promoted a passi tiger air- j
plane trip from Wisconsin to New i
York. He now says he will con
struct a plane which will carry laO
passengers from New York to Kan
Francisco, in addition lo o.'ifni
P'-.iinds of freight, in So hours.
.Most, important of all, he says
the non-stop (light can be taken at
a charge for each passenger of
tht-' e cuts a mil".
This would be considerably un
der the charges made by th" rail
roads. Heretofore airplane travel
has been at considerably higher
j u . s t ban by train.
Much of this may be mere pro
motional talk, of course. It is per
haps easy to talk of 10ft passengers
tor a trip, but only ;;.'i may care to
tly instead of riding. Manifestly, if
thf-e cents a mile tor luu passen
gers would yb hi a handsome, profit
on a trip, ! same price for an
..v..,',-:.;e of -V' - passeng-rs would
yield only half as much, and might
he iinf mom.-): to nay expenses. This
is. exactly what the railroads fare
constantly. If all the trains w, re
lel'd to capacity all the time rates
I could bo C'l'i'-ed mat' rially. But
nobody can t. II just v. hen the pub
lic Is going t. f ,11 the trains, and
many a train l'-:iv.., the terminals
half rmpy with just as much
ov rl.- ad as if K v. ere filled.

A WOMAN i'iiiiii:vr

having u "perfectly good husband,"

How come that this woman lias
attained the presidency of a gas
company'.' When analyzed It Is
simple. Sho entered th company s .

employer looking wskanco at
the possibility of her marrying and
spoiling the gas office picture anrt

someone to lake her place, caused
her to a free that she would not
marry. When she felt like getting
married, however, this agreement
was waived and In duo time sho
got married und continued with tho
company.
With a woman treasurer and as
sistant treasurer, and a woman
secretary and assistant treasurer In
the company, this concern looks
very much like a woman's business.
Yet Miss Dillon, os sho prefers to
bo known, doesn't believe women
will succeed men in Industry, saying
the country Is so big that there is
room for both aexea The main
function cf women In business, she
opines, Is to humanize It,
Sounds sweet, anyway.
What's wrong with azz? Merely
that It takes two "z's" to dp the
work of one.
It would be Interesting to know
whether Senators Norbeck and
Bingham, both Republicans, agree
upon anything.
When the Connecticut river ad

Though other men may seek for girls
With wealth or high position,
I love my Bunch of Golden Curls
Just for her disposition.
I call her "Sunny," for, you see,
She seems just like .sunshine to
inc.
Her smiles are like tlio radiant
beams
Through drifting curl clouds break
ing; To bask in them, to my soul, seems
A blissful undertaking.
And Just us sunshine makes things
grow ,
Her., smiles Increase my love, I
know.
Sometimes, like mist before the sun
That makes the world seem dreary,
Tears start al something I have
done,
And then I'm far from cheery;
But when her smile breaks
through again,
How sweet ihe sunshine after
rain!
My "Sunny" Is a happy elf',
Light-hearted, jaunty, sprightly;
It is great sport, to dress myself
And call upon her nightly.
