Einstein's world contained matter and no motion; De Sitter's world contained motion and no matter. Both Introduced a new dimension, time, which wm added to the famUlar dimensions of length, width and depth to make a four-dlmenslonal, space- time world In which straight lines produced far enough returned to their starting points and pardlel lines came together. "Our three-dimensional minds cannot envisage such a world aa that," sdd Dr. Plaskett, "but I am going to show you a Uttle 'parlor trick' which witt perhaps help you to see that such things may be. "Take a rectangular shed of paper. For convenience, its length shoud be about three times its width. Bring the two ends together. Twiri one of them through 180 degrees and then join it to the other end. The resulting figure has some of the prop- ertin of the Einstein unlvern. A straight line drawn on the paper comn back to its starting point, and paraUel lines (the two edges of the paper) come'together. Try It yourself." In his concludon, however, Dr. Plaskett stressed the hypothetical nature of all then theories, and nid, "Space, as far as a mere observational astronomer Uke myself can see, is Euclidean and three-dimensional."

Every organization on the campus wm represented m about 800 of the boys and girls, oblivious to any previous differences, rubbed the friendliest of shoulders, to rhythm supplied by Harold King, Jack Emerson, Malcolm Pretty, and Keith Jackson. Tea was nrved In a buffet style by Alumnae Thetaa. Featured on the menu wm "German food" which, shorn of Its disguise, resolved itself into bologna on brown bread. Attractive girls pasaed the dainties. Dancing in the bdlrooom began at 3. Theta "kites," in the shape of thoir pin, hung from various corners of the room, while two errant balloons hung from the ears of a wistful and' decidedly doggy-looklng moose. Don't ask how they got there! About half way through tht pro ceedlngs the aforementioned co-eds went to work with raffle tickets with "Brother Can You Spare a Dime" as their theme song. Some China and an evening bag were raffled off by Bertie Barrett, and (strangely enough) won by brothers Gibb Henderson and Jim BeddaUs. Highlight of the mudcd program wm Jack Emerson's rendition of Ids own composition, with appropriate choruses in an Anglo-Brooklyn accent by his henchman Sonny Richardson. At 7:80 the party broke up and conscience - stricken Greeks went home to work on term essays.

Meet Recently Dean Quainton gave an addren to the students on the Oxford Group Movement. On Wednesday, in Arts 204, at 12:10, at an open meeting of the V.C.U. Rev. Alex Esler, D.D., will speak on the same subject, discussing the philosophy of the recent widely read book, "For Sinners Only." It should be Interesting to contrast the viewpoints of these two divines, and their interpretation of the book. Dr. Esler Is a well known minister of this city. His sons have lately scored successes in artistic productions at the University. R. M. Esler was Earl ToUoller in Iolanthe, and several characters in the French Clubs' "Chansons du Vleux Bon Temps," while Reynolds Esler took a part in the Players' Club Christmas production of "The Thread of Scarlet." The Varsity Christian Union cordially Invites all students to hear Rev. Eder discuss the obsequious topic of the Oxford Group Movement, their methods and views. CO-ED BALL MAR. 3, AUDITORIUM Exchange Views BY NANCY MILES Breaks Here are two relevant Items for you cynics who believe passing is simply a matter of breaks, and study has nothing to do with it. A college paper reports that the Co-op book balcony where males used to predominate In a ratio of three to one has been replaced by a female balance ot the same ratio. Also reported Is the fact that the scholastic average of women at an American college is three points above that of the men. The flaw ln the dory is that the first item was picked up on the Oregon campus, whUe the second occurred at Whitman College, Walla Walla, Washington. There's no moral. Outcasts Your exchange tycoon pointed out several weeks ago the new born walla of two Independent college magazines. "Black Sheep" and "Alarm Clock," published by two prominent eastern Canadian Universities. And here's something to add to the dory. The ade of then magazines Those interested in the dudy of literature as a joy will be able to register thaf interest ln a concrete form by applying to Ann Fulton, secretary of the Letters Club, not later than five o'clock this afternoon. There are eight vacancies In the club, four for men and four for women. Applicants mud be sophomores, proceeding to the work of the third year. Majoring or honoring in EngUsh, while having a certain advantage, is by no means absolutely necessary, tiie prime requisite being a genuine intend in the object of the club, mentioned above. The Letters Club is one of the olded campus organizations, and membership in it had been prized tor many yean. While tho active undergraduate membership is limited to thirty, there is an dumni branch of the society which hn this year been delving into the mysteries of the new humanism.

Matthison wm finaUy adjudged most suited to play both parte on tour, but hi the six Vancouver-and-vicinity shows, he will play only the part of Mammond while Whimster will play the part of the murdered man, Sir Talbot. With a complete cad now assigned, Sydney Risk is looking for much mora progress, dthough the cad hn been rehearsing daUy for approximately thrae weeks. AU three soenn of the play have been gone over, and the cad is concentrating on the somewhat elaborate "mechanics."

ENGINEERS OPEN HOUSE DAY, MARCH 11, 1833, SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING Williams Sustains Shock at Iolanthe On the lad night of "lolanthe"- Saturday—the opera proceeded apparently without a hitch. Tho characters, reUeved of the obUgation of preserving their voices for another exacting performance, allowed their voicn more liberty than on previous nights, and raised tht roof in thtir lusty, carefree peons. They did not know, and Uttlt did the charmed audience guen that a catastrophe had almori prevented the performance. For the Director of the opera, Mr. Haydn Williams, ln stepping up to his dais, apropos of conducting the overture, most unfortunately dipped Into the orchestra pit, In hla faU sustaining a serious bruin on his back. Mr. Williams, despite an acute shock, refused to retire, or even not, but Insisted on starting the performance. As the evening progressed the hurt became more and more of a trld to the conductor, and proved so serious an Impediment that at the close of the last Act he was too weak to mount the stairs. Throughout the evening Mr. Williams had given no intimation or visible evidence of his handicap, and it was with some shock that the truth was learned. Engineers To Hold Open House Day Opportunity will be given those interested in the work of the AppUed Science Faculty to view at close quarters, the work which ia being conducted by the faculty. Tiw plan is an Engineers' Open House Day, on March 11, sponsored by the loed Engineering Soddy, under the presidency of Norman Brookes.

Greetings and salutations, my Uege, from thy mod humble and obsequious servant, Cyrius de Screpansle, who now languishes ln Incarceration in the most foul and loathsome Tower of Fire- hall, in the mod Inhospitable land of Pontus Graius inus Bius Clus. News has come to my resigned ears of bitter conspiracy in thy land. A certain one of my menials brings tidings of Inner strife and turmoil In the sanctum of the massive walls of thy baronial castle. A scurrilous knave, one Mertonis by name, hu hatched a plot to mod foully day thy pet canary. Wherefore, good my Uege, do thou take bariy measurn to curb thia churlish nheme. I pray thee, station six stout men- at-arms and one slim man-at-arms nigh unto the grlUed cage wherein lieth, or sltteth, as the case may be, thy most fortunate and feathered friend. And let them carol right merrily whilst silver songs sUp ride- ways from the screened whirtler's snout, and conspirators do dink In stealthy places. Then, when the how of midnight toUs from the cathedral chimes, let them forestall the vlUaln- ous varlets, by slaying the bird themselves. I have much pondered over this grave problem from the fastness of my lonely ceU, and do humbly beg that thou dost probate this plan of mine. My excellent friend and companion, Sir Coco de Coco, sends to thee his prayers for thy continued good health, and wishes to borrow from thee the sum of five guUdcrs, which monln he wtil expend among the poor and needy, chief amongst then bring Sir Coco de Coco. 1 pray thee, my Uege, guard thine health with care, and pray often for the safety of one who is in durance mod vile.
