EUROPEAN STUDENTS
ARE MANUFACTURING
"Self-Help" Enterprise Are
Now Sponsored by the Re
lief Organization.'
The sponsoring of "self-help" en
terprises is one of the most import
ant methods by which European Stu
dent Relief carries on its work of
aiding students of central Europe to
educate themselves against tremend
ous odds.
Student manufacturers are pio
neers in Foland. A small shop for
the manufacture of soap, ink, and
shoe dressing was established in War
saw less than two years ago. Today
a carpenter shop, a university press,
and a book-binding establishment
have been included in a program
which provides also for an enlarge
ment of the original schemes. At
first the students confined their ac
tivities to small enterprises, but in
the autumn of 1922 they secured and
filled a contract from the govern
ment calling for 30.000 kilograms of
shoe dressing. Their ink, soap, and
shoe dressing are known in the mar
kets of Warsaw as the purest obtain
able. Ten homes house 750 students in
Prague, Czechoslovakia. When Czech
students found that lodgings were un
obtainable, they went to work with
pick and spade, hammer and saw, to
provide shelter for themselves.
This building enterprise was such j
an innovation that thousands flocked
to see the students at work. Profit
ing from this curiosity, the students
placed a temporary fence around the
grounds and charged admission of
all desired to make a close inspection
of men students wielding picks and
women students cooking meals for
these workmen.
No one is permitted to live in these
dormitories who gave less than 200
hours of work to their erection. The
majority of students now occuping
them gave 800 hours or more.
Wilson Addresses
Y.W.C.A. Vespers
"The Relation of Christianity to
Labor and Industrial Problems," was
the subject of a talk made by Ben
Wilson, well known lecturerf at Y.
W. C. A. Vespers Tuesday. Ruth Car
penter led the meeting. Special
music was furnished by a trio made
up of Burdette Taylor, Alice Miller
and Dorothy Compton.
Wilson says that labor has the
problem of organiziitg itself so that
every man, woman and child will have
a just share of the material things
that make life worth while. This la
bor problem is the basis of every
other problem that is bothering the
world. It wrecked the peace treaty.
It has plunged us into the wars that
are such a terrible commentary on
civilization.
A western poet visualizes "that
great day to come when we will no
longer use men to make money but
use money to make men." Comment
ing on this non-material attitude, Mr.
Wilson feels that the industrial prob
lem must be adjusted by educating
men to a spiritual way of thinking
which must then be made to function
politically through organization.

Big business needs
big men
There is room and need for capable men
in all the allied activities of big business.
But nowhere is there greater need or greater
opportunity than in that very essential
service to all business Insurance (Fire,
Marine and Casualty).
Insurance, as a profession, affords con
tact with the most vital activities of the
commercial and industrial world.
The Insurance Company of North
America, the oldest American Fire and
Marine Insurance Company, has been an
integral part of big business since 1 792 and
the earliest beginning of national affairs.
Out of this long experience it urges those
who are aboXit to choose a calling to con
sider the world-wide influence of the
insurance field.
