Harvey of York, Nob., last evening In an address at the electrical engl neor' program before the Engineering society. Mr Harvey, In expanding on his theme, "Central Station Operating and Engineering," decried the fact that ho many graduate engineers ore going Into manufacturing and commercial work, when the opportunities for ad vancement are better In the operating 'departments Mr Harvey was one of two speak ers at the meeting.

There's a buzzing on the campus And a rumor In the town And we're feeling pretty happy 'Cause Miss Graham's ceased to frown And she's opened up the dancing We can tango like the rest And we think she's very good to us We'll try and do our best. But, honest, Dear Miss Graham, When you do those jumps and bound, We simply can't hold her up too, Except with arms around. We've tried the waltz position But when you do the "glide" It's a mighty poor protection From a tumble or a slide. In fact, we've tried it often , And you cannot "hesitate" Or "boston" back and forward At a terrifying rate, Or, worst of all, Its dangerous To try and do the dips Unless you have a "Johnson" hold Or quite a "Jeffries" grip. But we know they're dancing slower And we'll learn the minuet And tread the measures gently With dignity and yet It is such fun to fly around And tear the floor to bits! In fact, the latest jumps and bounds Make quite the biggest hits. But we promise to go slower And try and calm our zeal With perhaps less wear on slippers And no treading on the heel.

As for the toiler, Mr. Newbranch pictured no rosy future In the profes sion. The man who stays more than five years, drawing his modest salary, possesses a love for the work, but Is not lured on by thoughts of riches or prominence. He Is a worker In the dark, known to but few of his readers, and each year less useful to the paper. Experience is not the asset that it is In other callings, for the younger men are more In demnnd than their ex perienced but no more efficient elders. While he serves, he Is powerful in that his writings may cause politicians to fall, or cities to shake themselves. But as he grows older, his experience has "cooled his ardor, weighted his eagerness, rubbed the bloom off the rose which he sees now with dulled and cynical and critical eyes, but which he must be able to describe to the world as a rose with the dew of morning still upon It. It Is hard for him to do it. But the young man, who still preserves his Illusions, can de scribe the rose as If it were the first and only rose in the world. It is his description, therefore, that the ordi nary newspaper reader wants and so youth Is served and age is dis carded." The newspaper man, nevertheless, lives for two things power, and serv ice. Each day brings chances for serv ice, and backing him is the power of the printing press. "Speech is given a thousand tongues and a body that never tires and never sleeps. He lives by the newspaperman's golden rule to use the exceptional power that ho enjoys, whenever he can prop erly use it, in the service of the com munit In which his newspaper circu lates. Once Edited Nebraskan. Members of the Nebraskan staff, or the Awgwan, and others interested in the subject, filled the Nebraska ofTUe for the address. After the close, Mr Newbranch indulged in a bit of rem iniscencing, to the effect that he had once been the editor of the Nebraskan for one day. After that, because of certain reference to one of the owners of the paper which was then under private ownership, he was no longer connected with the staff. Water for the Thirsty Ones. An oasis has been discovered in the University Temple and many thirsty students are now. able to refresh them selves at the drinking fountain just installed. Often have the men at the desk in the lobby been asked, "Where can I get a drink." by thirsty young people, but now there will be no oc casion for such a question for the foun tain is in plain sight near the north stairway.
