The Loun-er's many admirers willrecall his report of Triple-E Hudson's

Sothe Loulngler apololgizes for makingthe leal ned prof make a bad breaksuch as claiming that cocoanluts mustbe hollowed out.

O. L. Barker Describes Trip onWhich Forced Marches

W ere Necessary

To go years without a bath mnightseem to some people the height of in-I convenience, but to the monks of theCoptic monastel ies of Saint Anlthonyand Saint Paul on the Red Sea it isthe regular thing, according to Mr.Oliver L. Barker. instructor in the De-partment of Architecture of the Insti-tute, who has r ecently returned froman expedition sponsored by the Byzan-tine Institute of America, under thledirection of Mr. Thomlas Whittemore,during the course of wvhich the partywas lost in the desert at one time andmade an enforced three days' -malecl atanothler.

The monastel ies , isited lie in theSouth Qualala Mountainls, %NhichI rise7,000 feet above the Red Sea. Tlleyare about twventy miles apart, and be-caulse of their inaccessibility have hadbut few visitors through the centur-ies. The monastery of Saint Paul,wvlieh the expedition visited this year,is small, housing at present twelvenionks, whose vows bind them to chas-tity, poverty and uncleanliness.

The country around the monasteriesis mountainous and barren of vegoeta-tionl, but mountain spr'ing's enable the.growvth of dates, onions and wheat-the three staple foods of the nionks.

Camel Is Peculiar AnimalStarting from the Nile in Fords, the

pqrty proceededl as far as possible andthene changed to the somzewllat slowvercamrels. 'Mr. Barkier, commenting onthe dispositioll of the camel, said:

"The carriel is a very peculiar ani-mial. His life seems to lie just one

long, series of complaints; lie com-plains when he gets up, and when helies dozen; lie complains lvhenl he isnot fed. and while he is being fed."

Discussing further the use of the cam-el, the horse of the desert, Mr. Barkerremarked that if one resisted the mo-tion of the camel in the slightest de-gree, one wias subject to terrificcramps; and the best way to avoidthem is to urge the camel into a loul-so-called because the native who isleading the camel has to run, whlilethe camel toes at a sort of fast lvalk.

his rattle, gives vent to inarticulate mutterings and pointlessbanalities, and disposes of it for twenty-five cents, better spentelsewhere. His latest prank consists of complaining in acrudely constructed editorial that THE TECH contains a sur-feit of advertisements, inserted at the expense of its newssection. The accusation is absurdity in its most obvious form,as a study of the files of this paper will reveal. We havtelong heard it whispered that the Institute's comic publicationis just managing to keep its head above the thr eateningwaters of financial embarrassment, but we had not realizedthat is was so envious of THE TECHL's apparently superiorbusiness management.

What, if any, is the function of the college comic? AreIwe to conclude that its chief raison d'etre lies in the pub-lishing of the soret of humzor that skirts as close to the lineas will be tolerated by the school and postal authorities, and,for lack of something to write about, in unjustifiably "pan-ning" school tradition and custom, with no thought to con-structive criticism ? Obviously, the existence of Voo Doowould seem to manifest a deplorable condition.

We find nothing in the usual Voo Doo as mzeritorious as thedrawings. The publication has been extr emely fortunate inthe obtaining of willing talent, and this possession is a greatasset to its reputation, for without it, we f ear that Voo Doocould not even sustain itself. The "drool" jokes and allegedpoetry are generally and inexcusably shady. Towar d theend of the issue, within the advertising section, is discoveredthe most amusing and most appropriately styled material-the-'exchanges. The amount of space allocated to jokes fromIoutside comics presumes that Vtoo Doo exists and flourisheson the products of others.

The f act that Voo Doo is rated among the foremost collegecomic publications in no way excuses its positioll in Instituteundergraduate activities. Of all student organizations atTechnology, this publication is the only one under recogniz-able Faculty supervision-certainly not a condition of whichit may be proud. Since the offensive Back Bay number twoyears ago, a member of the Advisory Council on student pub-lica'tions has criticized the page proofs of every issue beforethe magazine was actually printed. Is no' the fact that VooDoo is constantly under suspicion that it is not equal toassumin- its own lresponsibilities as do other publications,sufficient reason to demand it rouse itself out of its smugstagnation ?

The Boards and Staff of Voo D~oo have a month withinwhich to prepare an issue containing at most only fifteenpages of original material. There is no reason why they can-not improve upon the characteristic style and content of themagazine and make it essential in student life, as a collegecomic naturally should be, instead of a collection of space-filling trivialities and border-line humor. Also, why not acreative editorial column, instead of a page of ill-manneredsarcasm,?

A college comic can be of tremendous service to the insti-tution within which it is published by using the cutting edgeof well dir ected satire. Voo Doo is a publication primarilyfor the undergraduate body of the Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology. Its purpose is to amuse, and it may use thisprivilege to the advantage of the school as a whole in pro-moting 'within its pages things relative to the Institute. There-in lies Voo Doo's opportunity to redeem itself-to makeitself a live and valuable student activity.

Wake up, Phosphorous! You hare basked too long by the.ewalrm hear th of self-satisfaction and independence!I

GREEN HELL, by Jutlian^ Ditgitid. TheCentury Co.; -337 pp.; $4.

Stories of travel and adventure arequite common and have a -%vide ap-peal; but they do not usually attemptto compete wvith, or enlter the fieldof, the nlovel. Greenl Hell is a storyof exploration, and a good one; butin its choice of title, its style andits bzindhiog, its departs somewhat fromthe traditional formn of the jourallof travlels.

Inl this case, the deveiatioll is ratherdesirab~le than otlelswise, although thetitle is a b~it hIrlid. 'Wihal ordinarymnortal can bC (expected to 110no thatthe Greeii Hell is a rather extensivepiece of geography, and not the II,--nient of the mind ot some neuroticfemale who has been subjected to ane~xcess of grippiiig, situations? Onedoes not realize that he is dealing- witha travel b~ookt ultil after a mnore thancursory examination.

Notwithlstandiii.,, this, the book isa r attling Food story of the travelsof an Irishmall (the author), an Eng-lishlman, a South A~mericanl and a Rus-sian through the more or less unex-plored Jungles of Central Paraguayand Bolivia. It is not a mere re-print of a diary, with a day-b~y-dayaccount of number of miles covered,and number of varieties of pink p~ar-rot observed; it is a continuous ac-count, wvrittenl, perhaps, a bit too ini-plressionlistically and disconnectedly,b~ut not yawn-provoking, as the oldertyple of adventure story was apt to be.Ollce you start the thing, you won'tlay it dow n until it is fiislled.

As wvas intimated, the b~iudaing ofthe book is untisuaily attractive, andwouldl~ biea decorative addition to anylibrary-; t~he p~aper .jacket is sufficient-13, hirid to Ccat ch anyone's attention.The b~ook has been announlcedl for re-lease this -%veek-end; it should furnisha decidedly pleasant way of wvhilingaway those hours of the vacationwzhich are not occupyiedl with the im-portant processes of sleeping and eat-illg. C. NV. S.

Mr. Barker said that a very inter-lesting-- thing about the camel is thelfact that ones never kllows which endis going down first when the camielkneels. A camel might for ylears gietdown front feet first and then suld-denly, for no apparent reason. changeand get down the other end first. Inspite of the vagaries of the camcels,the party arrived safely tit the mion-asteries.

After the p~lans of the mollastel ieshad beer, drawn, all frescoes copied,and inscriptions transcribzed, the par-ty set out to return to the Nile. Onthe way, they became lost in a groupof sand dunes, and wvere forced to re-turn to the Red Sea, wvhel e they ob-tained a guide whlo had made the tripby camel before and knew the wvay. Be-fore they had reached their destinla-tion, a terrific r ainstorm overtookthem, covering one of the cars withwater up to the hood. The party con-tinuedl onward in the one -~ood Ford,but had to walks w hen this car brokedowen. A march of three days acrossdesert country was necessary beforethe party reached human habitation.

With the dull gloom of a typicalNew England Spring day casting itsshade over his office ill the RogersBuilding, Mr. Barker described whathe calls the most healthful climate in
