Thrones are fine things for winners of beau- ty contests, and as seats where the waning monarchs of this world may perch for the curi- ous to look upon. But thrones? We seriously doubt that Abilene could even get a candidate for congress to sit on one of them. Sacking College Students Dean Christian Gauss of Princeton thinks one-sixth of the college population should be sacked. Writing in the current issue of a pop- ular magazine, he declares that a good college course costs the student’s parents and the col- lege endowment fund from $8,000 to $10,002. His suggestion is that some of this money be saved by putting certain students to work. As Dean Gauss points out, many parents send boys to school who either have no inter- est in their studies or else go for nothing more than a glorified vacation. It is a perplexing problem, this one of select- ing college students. Some universities em- ploy psychological tests,to weed out the und»- sirables. One state university gives these tests, but does not forbid admissio#&. What it does do is to write parents of children whose mentality is not sufficiently high to allow then to go through school successfully, pointing out * this fact to them. If they choose to come to school, well and good, but they are quickly weeded out at the quarterly examinations, Other schools are making an attempt to solve the problem by segregating their students ac- cording to mental ability and giving each group different studies, adaptable to their capacity. A third method is to organize junior colleges at strategic points for those who want to go to college, but yet have no particular desire of obtaining a degree. Those who attend are taught the university subjects, but unless they Advance Beyond John Bunyan (St. Paul Dispatch). The Baptist church of North Dakota in an- nual convention at Bismarck, has adopted res- qlutions condemning “anything that tends to create a military spirit among the youth of America.” Thus they advance beyond John Bunyan, the great Baptist, who served under Cromwell. Many of them have possibly never read Bunyan’s “Holy War,” or the “Siege of Mansoul,” with its military allegory, and they may have overlooked in his “Grace Abound- ing,” which is practically his autobiography, the story of his military career. It was at the age of 17 that he entered the army, and his youthful experience served rather to equip him than hinder him for the great religious work he afterwards accomplished. Without that military spirit John Bunyan would never have survived the antagonists he was galled upon to fight.

After the characteristic whoop ap- pears the person continues to be able to transmit. the infection for at least three weeks, and perhaps much longer, It is perhaps well to con- sider the person as capable of spreading the infection as long as the whoop continues, and for two weeks after it ends. During such a time he should be kept away from other children and certainly kept away from school and public Physicians are convinced that it is ee to prevent the disease in children who have not had it by in- jecting them with a vaccine made from the bacteria associated with whooping cough. While this vaccine is not effective in all cases, the evidence seems to be good that it frequently may be of service in preventing the child from catching the disease. As with other infectious diseases, all discharges from the nose and throat should be disinfected as well as articles contaminated by these dischargés.
