PAGE 6 EDITORIA [ ___ABrandNew Party Old party lines, and particularily old party names, aren't going to count for much in the 1920 presidential elections, after all! For, whether he gets the republican nomination or not, Maj. Gen, Leonard Wood has invented ¥ brand- new inter-party party of his own, evolved a platform for it, and even furnished the name of it, ‘ Wood's platform is as follows: “We believe, along with the late Hun kaiser, that even the American people must be coerced, clubbed and bullied into good citizenship ; that) they are unintelligent and hence incapable of reason in| the light of facts, and that therefore the facts should be} withheld as the military authorities see fit; that the con-| stitution is a back number; and that democracy is hopelessly | out of date, anyway.” ‘ | This plain meaning is inferred from the recent proclama- tion of the hero of the steel strike district at Gary, Ind., that a military censorship exists on all news to the Ameri- can people of what the troops under his command are doing | to the strikers and others in the district. | The exclusive and novel inter-party feature of the new | party consists in the fact that, so far as the vast majority} of Americans are concerned, all statesmen and would-be statesmen, irrespective of old party affiliations, properly suspected of being of like mind with the famous general, are to be considered members. Secretary Baker and Presi-| dent Wilson, for instance, in deciding what to do about letting or not letting the Wood censorship order stand, can get themselves into the innermost circle of the new party councils in the course of a very few days, if they want to. The name of the new party is arrived at this way. The membership is to be made up of men suspected of being of like mind with Wood, as stated above. Hence, they may be said to be Wood, or wooden, headed. Hence, “W ‘ooden- .” or “Wooden-heads.” and te you have it, you American citizens and voters! The issue is as if made to,order; what are you going to do with it? Get set! Go!’ It may be next to impossible to find a solution to the mystery surrounding the present sugar shortage, but some light may be thrown on it by the Fened that jorecan At 1,000,000 tons, or about one-quarter, en pee crop at 6% cents, while the United States got all of last year’s crop at 54% cents.

It should lose no time in extending mem- bership to all soldiers and ex-soldiers who have been victims of the present army court-martial system. a@ young man goes to college it is, of course, idea of getting something out of higher education will help him make a success of his career, all too seldom does a college man get his real start in life without a distressing period after his graduation, which he is apt to find that college men are some- thing of a drug on the market and that it is pretty hard to land any sort of a job at all when he lacks all business ex- and has only an academic education. During this — he is pretty apt to become discouraged and dis- rtened and to become decidedly “down” on colleges. While col men cannot be blamed for this attitude toward the higher educational institutions it is not really the colleges that are to blame for this sort of hiatus in the lives of men before they get going. This hiatus is due to that fact that from the secluded, rather impractical, atmosphere of college life the graduates are pushed out into the cold, cold world without knowing what they are going) to be up against. A period of readjustment is inevitable. | They have to get firmly placed on the solid earth. They've | got to learn to find their way around the world without) professors or companions to potas the way. | This hiatus can, however, be eliminated to a large extent | by a very simple procedure. Let the college man devote! fiveeyears instead of four to his higher education and let| him use this extra year in bucking up against life out of college. Let him sling hash, dig ditches or otherwise work | for a living before entering college or for a year during| his course of education and then, when he leaves the Alma Mater to win his way in the world, he'll know where he’s at and what he’s going to do. Furthermore, knowing what the world is, he can make his college education in- finitely more valuable by correlating it to the things he has learned about the workaday world. College education is worth a lot to every young man— there wouldn’t be so many men in colleges if it wasn’t. But this charge of giving students a false, impractical vitw of what real life is, has been held against higher edu- cation for a long time and, too, not without reason. But, thru this simple plan, the reason for this complaint against colleges becomes null and void. ro Every once in a while we are informed that Finnish troops or some other troops have wiped out whole di- | visions of Bolshevists.
