Alumni Notes

For seve ral yea rs, now, partic ul ar emphasis has been laid upon colleg iat e work in Peru Normal. We are glad to note thp.t the tendency is becoming very noti ceab le to ward doing degree work after graduation. Th1s year's gradu a te c la ss ranks high in number; we hope in quality also. It is also interest in g to obse rv e that , while the undergraduate classes hav e bee n larger in the past, perhaps, the gr eat increa se of attendance among the t-lowers for all Occasions juniors a nd sen ior s m ore th an make s up for this present deficien cy in the

FALLS CITY, 95 lower classes. Again, we notice, as before, the added str ess put upon work of col legiate rank at Pe ru. We eve n dare to dream that Peru Norma l may become a Peru Teachers' College at no very LOCALS distant day.

The unerring taste, s hre wd insig ht, and compe lli ng id ea ls of the "coac h" were ev ident in eve ry part of th e satisfy ing p erf or man ce. The pi ece itself is ra ther m ore than cl ever· being n eit her m aw ki sh nor farcical' but a chall eng in g a nd eve n i ati ng co medy of manner s. Th e rea l st uff of drama is p rese nt in a thor o-go ing confli ct of standard s- · and th e dialogu e, whil e s imple and eas ily fo llowed , is di s criminating and vivid-l'lt times quite poetical.

Of the seven players in the cas t, all we re so merito rious as to di scourage a from' award i ng res tricted praise. Howeve r, Miss Hazel Frye, in the title part, was easily the ce nt er of interest, an d rece ived un s tin te d admiration and applaUIJe. Her rea d ing of a varied text, calling for extremes of emotional effect and a wide gamut of tones and mo ods , was intelligent and sy mpa thetic Her "Cous in Kate" was just the so phi sticated yet unspoil t!d, wi se ye t im· pul s ive, allurin g, un a cco unta ble, • an d wh o lly se lf-co ntradi ctory Kate inte nd ed by th e auth or.

Scarcely less d ese rv in g of di sti ncti on was the pe rform an ce of Miss Jluth Co ne as Am y Spen cer Miss Co ne was cha rmin gly ing in th e role of th e s ou lful a nd ce nsori ous "Swee t Yo un g :J'hing."

THIRD WAR OF INDEPENDENCE

We celebrate the anniversary of the Dec laration of Independence. Had our for efathers been pac ifists-?

The little nation in 18 12 gave us the fre edom of the seas· Shall our big nation give up th at freedom?

Unfair taxation without repr esentation caused the war in 1775; unjust servitude of American seamen, the war of 1812 ; the wilful killing of innocent men, women and children-citizens of the United States the war of 1917.

The pacifists of 1775 sai d, "Better t axat ion without representation thar. r ebe llion and war;" in 1812, "Bette r keep our sea men at hom e th an have bloodshP. d ;" in 1917, "Better lose our in dependence on seas and let a few i nnocent citizens peri sh than to plunge our who le n alion into war. "

Of th e three wars for ind ependence, 1775, 1812, and 1917, the ca use of the lctst seems to be by far the most just.
