Mussolini ponders a plan to form a National Industrial Federation, which would be composed of seven large corporations.

Yale wants to know the same thing. Not about Dartmouth, but about Yale. And Professor C. W. Mendell, Professor of Latin and Chairman of the Athletic Board of Control, leads off in The Yale Daily News with a succinct and persuasive statement. The object of a college education is culture. "Culture is not the finished product, much less the meretricious trappings of an inferior article serving to deceive the observer. Culture is fertilization. . . . True education must make fertile the intellectual and moral ground so that it can bear fruit in the proper season. To be more concrete, the real education...

But it is sound to say that the general playing, the stress on the play as the prime object of interest, and the cooperative work of all the departments connected with the productions, make the venture more than justifiable. If the amateur can at all times learn from the professional, the professional can at times learn from the amateur. And the combination of all the artistic forces...
