AESTHETIC IN ENGINEERING.
Tickets for the law barbecue havo
been on Bale for several days and tho
demand is great. It is believed by
the committee that every lawyer will
bo present with tho exception of those
who aro kept away by their work'. Tho
method adopted has been successful.
Tho students were divided up into
groups and tickets placed In tho
hands of ono man for each group.
Alumni and others outside of tho
school who Intend to come may pur
chase tickets at tho office of tho regis
trar. Students will bo unablo to se
curo them except from somo member

Tho ox has already been slaughtered

cured to prepare tho barbocuo and a

Wednesday will likely bo a holiday
in tho law college with tho exception
of ono or two classes. Street car ser
vice has been provided and tho crowd
will loavo for Capital Beach at 10
o'clock. The barbecue will bo served
about noon. A program will bo given
in addition to tho calendar of sports
already announced. Considerable en
thusiasm has been manifest among
both tho students and tho faculty mem
bers of tho college. It is believed that
there will bo at least three hundred
present. Tho majority of tho alumni
and former students in tho city aro

Prof. L. A. Sclplo Tells Society of Its
Great Importance.
Prof. L. A. Sclpio addressed tho
engineering society on "Tho Aesthetic
in Engineering Details." In his Intro
duction ho said it was a very much no-1
glected subject and that there aro
very few text books which treat It. j
Tho subject deals with tho art in de-'
signing and as styles chango wo can I
determine tho stage of civilization !
by the beauty and types of tho details )
of its constructions. It. takes time i
and study to appreciate tho beauty
of a construction. Considerable criti
cism is made of engineers upon the
appearance of their work'. An. engi
neer does not think so much in the
designing of tho appearanco as he
does of tho strength. Tho principles
underlying tho work of tho artist and
tho ongineer aro reversed. Tho ar
tist produces his work regardlejs of
scientific principles whilo the engineer
does tho opposite. Ho works from sci
entific principles and 'meets tho tech
nical details first and then figures on
tho artistic side if at all.
Professor Sclplo also explained a
number of rules and cited examples of
construction done with regard to- them.
They aro tho syraotry, style, fitness,
compared with its surroundings, form,
fitness and proportion, ornamentation
and the color, and harmony of tho con
struction. The beauty of tho construc
tion has a large Influence upon tho
public. In the caso of a machine de
signed artistically a quicker sale will
bo had than If an ugly machine Is pro
duced. Tho same Is true In buildings
and everything olse. It also raises the
standard of tho workmen. A man
working amid dirty and Inartistic sur
roundings Ib generally of a low stan
dard and Is dlsatisfied, while a man
working among artistic and beautiful
surroundings Is generally content and
tho standard of his work Is higher.
A number of largo manufacturing
plants havo tnken advantago of this
among which aro tho National Cash
Register Company and tho Pullman
Car Works Company. In all It Is
easily seen that a Uttlo money spent
In artistic design will Improve tho
conditions of tho owner as well as
builder.
Musical comedy will tako tho place
of an attempt at serious drama in tho
senior class play this spring at Min
nesota. In previous years, consider
able dlsatisfactlon has been expressed
with tho sonior plays. Thoy havo been
characterized as "undertakings be
yond tho ability of thoso who partici
pate." Tho play will bo "Tho Ar
raignment of Paris."
