Depression Alters Life of Students Real Thinking Becomes More Common on Campuses. BY GRETTA PALMER Timei Special Writer NEW YORK. March 27—“ Students Stage Rallies to Aid Taxi Strikers," read a headline —a headline which probably occasioned only the mildest of excitement among New York's subway readers. Yet such a bit of news, in 1921, would have made us reel and rub

our eyes. For you will recall, if your memory is long -ough to carry you back to those days, that the American student of the petri o and was never one to stage rallies over anybody’s troubles but his own. If it were a question of compulsory chapel, now, or an effort to in-

fringe his rights to carry a flask to the classroom, you could count on him to a man. But his sense of social justice was pretty rigidly bound by the campus walls. You may study the youth of those days in the curiously dated pages of Scott Fitzgerald’s first books. He wanted to be something of a rake and he committed his little sins with a grave ostentation. It was his headiest ambition tb attain membership in a club of undergraduates who had all spent a night in jail. His college loyalty took the form of betting more money than he had on the big football game of the season. His ideal girl was the prom trotter and his economic theories were limited to the best method of extracting money from the Old Man. This care-free, irresponsible young man had no doubts about the future; he knew exactly what he was going to do. When he was graduated he would get a job selling bonds and all his week-ends would be spent on Long Island among charming millionaires. Some day, inevitably, he w’ould become a millionaire himself and marry the pretties girl within reach. The most serious of the problems which confronted the young men and women of that age was the inability of their parents to approve of the new code they had adopted for themselves. Urged “Right to Live” A great fervor and a great belligerency were poured into the effort to establish their right to live their own lives —which meant staying out until 2 in the morning and wearing low-cut dresses for the girls, carrying hip-flasks and being mysterious about their movement for the young bloods of the time. Those girls and boys seem to have vanished from the face of the earth. The students of today, colleges report, are studying economics W’ith all their might and are trying, like so many senators, to find out what has happened to the world. They show an apathy toward football success which shocks the older graduates. They do not even, according to a recent poll of Harvard freshmen, care about coming to the prom. A great many of today’s students have gone through an unexpected domestic earthquake, in which they have discovered that the foundations of father’s fortune were several shades less certain than they had supposed. A number of them have found it necessary to earn their owm tuition, if they planned to go to college—and their desire to bet SSOO on the football game has been perceptibly lessened as a result. All of them have had to face the fact that bond selling presents a very dubious future to the young man with nothing but a diploma and a lot of friends to recommend him. Now Aware of World Our college students have stuck their heads beyond the campus walls and begun to take an interest in the grown-up w’orld. Their war with their families about individual freedom has become a minor issue in the war between an old philosophy of social living and anew one. And so—" Students Stage Rallies to Aid Taxi Strikers.” It does not matter much, just now, what causes our undergraduates, embrace or whether they are left or right wing in their sympathies. The exciting thing is that they are interested enough to take sides at all—that they are, at last, awake to issues of the day larger than those involved in tea dances at the Biltmore and the New London races. Can America expect a student movement that will play an important part in the policies of the state?

When Children Get Bad Reports in School

Poor marks in school are often due to a child’s physical condition. No child can study with a sluggish system. Sluggishness actually dulls the senses; it will dull the brightest mind. Before you can blame the child—or his teacher—you must be ure you are not sending a badly clogged child to school. Don’t wait for a badly coated tongue, headaches. and poor appetite to tell you

a child s bowels need help! There’s a way to insure their regularity; see next column:

In Nice, France, provincials in native costumes hold gay folk dances in the streets at Eastertime. Natives of southern France mingle with visitors from foreign lands to make this flow’er festival a period of singular beauty. One of the most colorful events of the fete is the procession in which many girls from the provinces, dressed in quaint garb, take part. NEXT—Mexicans bum effigies of Judas.

A Woman’s Viewpoint - BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

“TT fairly makes me sick,” said Grandma Rossiter, electrifying the group with her words since she usually bent over her quilt blocks and listened to the others. ‘ It fairly makes me sick to see so many folks spoiling their lives because they ain’t got patience to wait and see how things’ll turn out, like we used to wait on our salt rising bread. No use to hurry it along. It riz slow, and that’s the way married love ought to be. But these highty-flighty moderns don’t seem to have no grit or no sense. Some of them can’t even act like grown folks. They behave like a passel of kids broke loose from school—running hither and yon, looking for happiness, when like as not they’ve left it in their own kitchens. "Yes, me and pa had a mighty lot of scraps. Once I recollect I put on my sun bonnet and walked out on him. But I didn’t get far. Only to the woodlot corner. I got to thinking how on earth w'ould pa ever manage without his biscuits—he was always one for his hot bread —and he couldn’t no more turn out a decent batch than a cat can hatch out a setting of eggs. Well, the upshot of the business was that I turned around and went back home, and I tell you I ain’t never regretted it. "We had a right nice life together, me and pa, with all our scrapping and troubles, for we was both mighty sassy and high-strung at first. I reckon it was just luck kep’ us together. Maybe ’twas economic circumstance, as my granddaughter says. Whatover it was, I’m glad it happened so, and I feel right down sorry for some of these folks nowadays. Scrambled up families, and somebody gettin’ a divorce every whip stitch. They’ve got a heap of lonesomeness to go through if they live long enough. “It takes a man and woman many a long year just to learn to live together. You may talk about sacrificing yourself, as my daughter Maisie’s girl is always Club Union Meets Mrs. Harry E. Barnard, 5050 Pleasant Run parkway, will be hostess for a meeting of the Council of the Irvington Union of Clubs at 2 tomorrow. Officers will be elected.

This is the secret of helping boys and girls go through an entire school term without once slumping in their studies. Keep them free from bilious attacks. Not by purging them with cathartics of adult strength! They’ll never need such things if you’ll use this natural means of stimulating regular, thorough bowel action; every three or four days, let them have a little California Syrup of Figs.

The laxative action of the senna in this fruity syrup is enough. Get pure Califorma Syrup of Figs.

doing, but let me tell you this. There ain’t no sacrifice too great to make if it gets you some solid companionship and contentment and love for your middle age and your -last years.” With that grandma settled back to her quilting. The young woman who had been talking about the future of modern marriage didn’t say a word. On the whole I thought Grandma Rossiter had made the best speech of the afternoon.
