O Cannon, Where’s Thy Sting? b J HE glories of war are departing, you can take it from any of the soldiers in the “Harvard regiment.” rhe unfeeling bureaucracy is making it as hard as possible for these co LYUM | student patriots to become real soldiers. ‘ . Ofticial red tapers are crushing youthful enthusiasm and trying to fash : ion Young America in the mould of Mars. They've taken away their neckties! As his curling forelock to Napoleon Bonaparte—as his shuffling foot to harlie Chaplin—such is his swell cravat to a Harvard youth, And now the order has gone forth that neckties must not be worn with uniforms! President Wilson—or Secretary Baker, or whoever it is that is commit ting this edict of vandalism— In the name of youth and the Crimson we appeal to you to let those students wear their neckties!

Evidence has accumulated rapidly in recent years to show that the proper care of the teeth is a much more important factor in general hygiene than had been suspected heretofore. Everybody, of course, knows that the decay of one’ teeth, \if not promptly checked, leads to untold suffering and nervous strain, and places an undue work on the digestive organs as a result of imprope r chewing of one’s It Is now clear that In addition to these obvious dangers we must eckon with the fact that decayed teeth and infected gums furnish the “easie ” into our systems for disease germs. Numbers of unexplained cases of disease are now known to be caused mouth and tooth infections. Sometimes these infections are the real cause of our old arch enemy “rheumatism.” Sometimes they cause serious heart, arterial and kidney diseases, Sometimes, and not infrequently, they cause death! At Last—Definition of Highbrow OST everybody uses the word “highbrow” once in a while, thinking so to imply that he or she wouldn’t want to be one, yet hoping secretly that his hearers believe him to be the real thing. Hardly anybody, how- ever, could tell exactly what it is to be a highbrow. When Prof. Brander Matthews of Columbia university, who is sup- posed to know as much about the uses of words as any man in America, tried to define “highbrow” the other day, he took a thousand words to do it. Two or three of his sentences run: “A highbrow is a person who has an habitual attitude of contempt to- ward that which is popular. He has not been educated enough to know that in all the arts the really good things, the vital things,have always been popular Of course, that does not mean that all popular things are good or vital. The highbrow is a person who, generally, is educated beyond his intelligence.” NOW—-who wants to be a highbrow, anyway? By Frederick Isham awivw) “THE UNAFRAID” 52a, bem By J. B.
