By Lilia Gonule:

When on the night of March

upon the presentation of Henrik
l'bsen‘a “Ghoxts” at the Savéy
theater, a somewhat surprised
and variously excited audience
made its customary way to the
street. if, at that , particular
moment. a_ hasty poll had been
taken of the departing audience,

covered that some of them went
forth aware that they had beheld
a moving drama, others convinc-
ed that they had been present at
An classic performance. it would

um, appear rather ridiculous if any
one of that ‘group had not felt _

«the stirring beauty and perfec-
tion of biaziniova. -
Throughout the play, Nazi-

One uspect‘of the Art Guild's recent successful Aztec
statue drive gives us pause to remember one group of
, Staters who are often taken for granted. ~‘ '

»'When the campaign languished, and students were

‘efficient and unnoticed,‘-dugfdoxvn into their pockeléi Mid
carried the fund over‘ the top.

'l‘heirvwork is routine and assigned. it-isn't part of

their job to take an active interest in the college and its

v future as an institution: And yet gladly, spontaneously,

they helped make it possible forour symbolic Aztec to be

preserved in stone. Here, it seems to us, is an example of.

school spirit that might well be emulated in some quarters

7; of the student body. _ ' . , _

i This incident simply bears out \vliat,'wc'liave noticed
about the interest and patience of our State employees.
They "never refuse a reasonable . , t, or even ignore an
um'easonble‘quest_ion. ~- ’ l

Mr.—- - Disney "Suggests 4 -

One of the most popular of proposedlremedles fozfi

graft and incompetency in our government offices. has long
been the idea of a national academy to train young men and
women for the government service.

‘Democmt of Oklahoma, has crystallized opinion on this
proposition, and has introduced it as-a bill ini.o«Congrcss_‘.
» ll. ll. 1225 provides for the establishment of “the National
Academy of Public Afl'airs, providing for a Board of Sup-
ervisors tli'erefo1', -and making an appropriation ‘for its
establishment and maintenance.” - v

lnjts-present fofm, the bill would pattern the institu-

tion "after the present Army and Naval academies, with‘r_e- 

gnrd to eligibility andvsclection of students, providing free

_ maintenance, living, and tuition for those attending. The .

Secretaries of State, Treasury, Interior,’ Commerce, Agri-
culture, and Labor would compose the board of supervisors.
The academy, to be established in the District of Columbia,
would limit its student body to men and women between
the ages of 17 and 2.3, and would grant to‘its-graduates
preference right to appointments in civil affairs, with all
retirement rights. ' ' ’

We’ strongly suspcelftliat it will take more than aca-

demies_.to cure all of our governmental ills,~but suclfan in- '

stitution might do,much to eliminate “spoils system" poli-

tical coritfol, especially if freedom of thought and discus-'

‘ . sion can bemaintnined. ,
At least it might dqsometliing to lift the stigma that
seems to have become attached to "brains" in public office.

There’ is plenty. of room for
those who would ‘take occountlng
as a vacation. With every session '
of the legislature more rules’ and
taxes are created which increase
the amount of what the account-
ant must know and do: Both the

_ state ,and federal governments

keep records of decisions in tax
cases and it is up to the account-
ant to keep himself informed on
full latest developments and in-
tcrprctations. As in every pro- ,
fcssion the lower ranks are
eruwile'd.but there is almost un-
limited opportunity for those
who have the desire and ability -
to progress. Mr. Everts of L. Ev-_
erts 6: Co., San Diego accounting
firm, stated that those who would
go into tha_aecauating field must
have an aptitude,for figures and- ’
a liking for close, accurate work.
“lf that apptitudc is lacking, —
there is not much use of trying
to brcak'into the field, because
there" are thousands who are
eluttcring up the work’am.l get.
ting nowhere." ' '. ‘

ing which entails keeping records

bookkeepi _, Is very complicated,

the work automatically. in book'-
keeplng there is'no room, for or-
lginal experimentation of person-

, al initiative. The flelclis becom-

ing sinallar as-business" methods

The accountant is distinguished
from the bookkeeper in that he is
an analyst. The accountant starts
where the bookkeeper egds. it is
the ability of the accountant to
see into the operation-and main-
tenance difficulties and then to
suggest improvements‘ that lifts
him from the rank of bookkeeper.
The bookkeeper tells what a bus- .
iness,has‘done; the accountant
gives the reason why ‘and then
suggests what it may do. Roger

Government Becomes Absorbent
During the next .few years,
there will be two places of great
oppogtugiity for ‘Certified Public
Accountants.” ‘lire first is in ex-
’ panding industry. Many busl.
necsep which have had a book-
keeper and have made use of an
accountant only at the-end of the
business year, are realizing that
they must use an accountant at
all times. Thousands of positions
should be created by these small
but rapidly growing concerns.
The Iecond opportunity is in gov.
ernment. More than anything‘
else governments need honest, in-
‘, account.

panies, who kindly supplied much"

“Californlan," a magazine devot-

ed to the literary aml ceono_mlc ‘'

thoroughly Western poems that
seriously and humorously showed
the life in California brought
him fame in the nation, and even
