t the three Senior men who, in
,h ninion of students and Faculty,
have been the most valuable to the
College during their four-year course,
three prizes are to be given each year
as a result of a fund just established
for that purpose by V. J. Kennedy.
President of the Purity Serum Co., of
Sioux City.
Mr. Kennedy recommends tnat lae
men who are awarded the prizes be
selected by a popular vote of the Jun
ior and Senior men of the College, to
gether with the Faculty. The form of
the prizes has not yet been definitely
decided, but they will probably be
gold, silver and bronze medals, valued
t o.v $15. and $10. respectively, to
constitute the first, second, and third
prizes. The winners would really rep
resent the three'biggesf men in Col
lege. The donor of these new prizes be
came interested in Crinnell because of
knowledge of Grinnell methods gained
during bis fourteen years at Ames in
charge of the Animal Husbandry De
partment. He believes strongly in
liberal arts education and says that it
is one of the greatest aids to a man
who goes into specialized work in a
university. Ex.
School is here again. Once more
the old college rings with the laughter
of happy, care free lives; once more
it re-echoes the busy hum of the work
shop; once more from early morning
until late at night it sends forth the
sounds of changing feelings and occu
pations. Again homes from over the states
send their brightest and best. Anxious,
loving hearts wait for tidings from the
absent.
We welcome you, new students, for
the sake of homesick hearts, for the
school year to begin and for the op
portunities which await you. Work
is the panacea for all homesick feel
ings. Work, which will prepare you in
part at least to be all that the fond
ones at home desire you to be. Ex.
Engineering classes of Santa Clara
University are making frequent trips
to the Exposition to make observa
tions on matters pertaining to class
work. They are under the leadersihp
of Prof. G. I Sullivan. Ex.
In reply to the protest lodged by
Washington students against compul
sory drill, President Suzallo of that
institution has declared that all stu
dents cutting military will be expelled
from the university. The decree
caused the postponement of a meeting
which had been called to arouse fur
ther agitation. Ex.
Of all the interests which under
graduates can take up, outside of their
required work, none has as many pos
sibilities as the literary society. Every
Friday evening finds groups of stu
dents presenting literary programs.
Probably the chief reason why many
men who have accomplished things
after they left the campus and who
were members of literary societies, is
that they learned to think.
Any student who is a bit conscien
tious, will notice that regardless of

critical audience. College men and
women are keenly critical because the
activities tbey are interested in are
managed by persons of tbeir own age
and on par with them and whom they
generally know. This is especially
true of work in literary societies. The
work to be presnted requires thought
in order to meet all criticism. This
i 'not always true io the classroom
the seminar. And no college train
ing is worth its cost If It does not
teach one now to think. The social
and economic position which any per
son attains later in life hinges largely
on bow and what he thinks.
The literary work teaches one how
to think and the subject matter of the
programs is generally rich in literary
and economic material which are the
best food for thought. To think and
to think of worthy things brings per
sonality. Ex.
Does too strenuously seeking after
learning cause defective teeth? Such
is the problem the solution of which
is now troubling Docftors Nec nd
Stroodley. in charge of the dental de
partment at the Infirmary. It has
been recently demonstrated that over
study makes the epidermal covering of
the skull attractive to the capillary
tubes. So the teeth, deprived of suffi
cient blood, go bad.
The rush on the department has
forced the addition of an extra nurse
and two rooms. EX
There is a very unfortunate ten
dency to extravagance at many col
leges. Within the last few years this
tendency has been manifested in an
increasing degree at many of the
leading colleges.
Usually a few wealthy students set
the pace. They establish a standard
of living and entertaining that is much
beyond that to which the majority
of students have been accustomed at
home. Rather than be unpopular or
'"queer" most of the students try to
follow the pace of the leaders. The re
sult is entertainments that are lavish
ly extravagant, banquets that some
times runs as high as 15 a plate, dress
suits, opera boxes and clubs, a general
scale of living that very few students
will be able to support after they are
thrown on their own resources.
It is time to call a halt to all of
this, especially in state institutions.
We pay the taxes to support colleges
nf real utility, that will make our
boys and girls useful citizens. We!
cannot tolerate an institution that,
fosters useless extravagance and I
whose atmosphere continually urges i
the student to more lavish expend,
ture. Daily Illini.

STICK TO YOUR JOB
MAN WHO "GOT THERE" GIVES
ADVICE TO YOUNGSTERS.
If a Man Has Any Ablity at All, He
3hould Make Up His Mind to Stick
to His Appointed Task Right ,
to the Finish.
More han thirty years ago a man I
know was working in a tobacco fac
tory, says a writer in Collier's. - He
was a stripper that is, he was en
gaged in stripping the stems from to
bacco leaves. Such work is extreme
ly arduous and the p.ospects of se
curing advancement are remote.
This man, however, was ambitious.
He wanted to work himself from
wages to salary. It was his desire
to labor with his brains instead of
with his hands. Pictured in bis mind's
eye was that plateau against which
the top of the ladder of success rests.'
Did he seek another Job? He did
not!
He kept right on stripping. Today
he 1s the president of a $65,000,000
corporation! And he is still in the to
bacco business!
The man. I might as well tell you.
is Caleb C. Dula.
"In my day." said Mr. Dula. "I
have seen much written and heard
much said about men becoming their
own masters." What foolishness! The
young man is told to start In business
for himself. He Is told to give up
his Job and get one that brings in a
larger income. That advice has ruined,
the prospects of more men than any
other I can think of,
"If a man has any ability at all. tnd
is interested in his work, he should
make up his mind to stick right to the
finish. If be has no ability he will
not stick. Do not misunderstand me.
If a man is in the wrong Job that
Is to say, :f he Is not the right man
or is not in the right Job he is do
ing both himself and the Job a great
Injustice to continue his relations. Un
der these circumstances a business di
vorce Is necesssarv. The man should
have a new Job and the Job should
baB a rew man!
Generally, however, every man, be
he a clerk or a clergyman, a well dig
ger or a steeplejack, a longshoreman
or a lawyer, should realise that his
environment Is his savings bank. Hs
Is paying Int It days of his life. The
Investment mill return larger interest
than any other he could make. The
man who leaves a Job for a slight raise
In salary loses his investment In a
new field he opens another account
And it Is likely to be a meager one
for some time, as he generally is a
stranger in a strange land, and until
be has proved, his worth his associates
and his employers have their eyes con
stantly on him, watching for him to
make some break.
Radiator Water Save Life.
Because of the not infrequent occa
sions on which motoring parties find
themselves chilled, as In snow or rain
storms on tours, vhils insuficlcstly
protected by coats and cloaks, tt is of
interest to remember that the radiator
of an automobile at all times when the
car is running has a supply of hot
water. Prompt application of hot wa
ter recently saved . a half-drowned
woman at Manhattan Beach. New
York, from a severe chill and pneu
monia Doctors declared that the rav
d la tor water undoubtedly saved hn

"Ribbons?" asked Dubwalte.

"Halrpins, toilet water, face powder,

"None of those things. Ah! I r

"Yes. sir." admitted the midship
man frankly. "It Is my sweetheart'!
