The ma chine is exj f5r welding and Cutting steel In principle it is the same as the oxy-hydrogen blowpipe, but gives a moch hotter flame. Oxygen and acetylene are led from separate tanks to.the burner and unite, giving a flame of doable the heat of molten iron. The machine cuts a naif-inch bar of stel almost as fast as it can be tt0Ted across its surface. Welding is done without heating the Iron except here the metals overlap. Mr. Grennan. who has charge of tie forge-room, explained that the ma caa is used only for laboratory pur tOS here, but is becoming general lr tsed throughout the rUte.

STUDENTS SEE ENGINEER'S WORK VISITS ARE CONDUCTED INTO VARIOUS LABORATORIES DEAN STOUT GIVES ADDRESS Head-Work and Resourcefulness of a Successful Engineer Empha sized Testing Machines Inspected That the engineer must be as profi cient with his brains as with his hands, if not more so. was the point emphasized by the different professors of the Engineering department at con vocation yesterday the second of the "Know the University" series of con vocationsheld in the different build ings. Dean O. V. P. Stout first addressed the students in Mechanical Engineer ing hall, voicing the complaint of the Engineers that they are "not known as they think they ought to be," Peo ple hold the erroneous idea that the Engineering profession is one which requires a great deal or muscle ana a comparatively small amount of brain. If the Engineering students are doing their work right, their heads are busier than tbeir hands. The Engi neering student is ahead of the art student in some respects, when he gets out in the world of material things. The professors of the various de- nartments then took charge of the stu dents and explained the nature of the work in these departments. Prof. C L. Dean explained the work In the power laboratories. He emphasized the necessity of head-work and re sourcefulness. Prof. O. J. Ferguson described the nature of the work In the electrical laboratories. Here the ability to think and observe correctly was considered the prime fundamen taL In such a laboratory there is no room for a student who comes only with his hands and a small amount of brain power. Prof. C. R. Chatburn and Prof. C. E. Mickey conducted the students through the material testing laboratories. The students saw the various machines for testing the strength of different ma terials, such as masonry, iron ana 6teeL Shears Gone; Reward Offered cxmo evil-doer, some miscreant some pety individual with a brain like a papf r wad, has ventured into the office 'of this flourishing little daily it tm-entv-four hours and WiUlli. when that Individual left a valuable e Lo this office left also; nameiy. a pair fine shears.

' ' '. i ' ONE WHALE OF A TEAf.l,SAYS COACH NOTRE DAME IS HEAVY, AGGRES SIVE AND EXPERIENCED SEVEN VETERANS IN LINE-UP Some of Them Members of Famous 1913 Eleven Freshmen Rehears ing Hoosier Plays Varsity Holds Pepful Practice Coach Hoeffel has two observations to make relative to his recent sight seeing trip to the Hoosier county. First he assures us that the good old English wsy of saying "Notre Dame" is correct, and incidentally he also remarks that the South Bend school has "one whale of a team." A glance at the average weight of the Catholic footballers would lead one to believe that the assistant coach, makes this observation literally. Four of their men weigh 200 pounds of bet ter, with probably not as many as four weighing under 180. And there are other attributes which place the Notre Dame team in the whale column. Seven of them were In last year's lineup, and two or three can look back on the days when the Catholic school taught the East tow to play football. Coach Warns Rooters. The looked-for declaration from headquarters has come. Coach Stiehm has sounded the klaxon in warning of the danger which may result from the over-confident attitude of Husker rooters. He fears that the team itself may imbibe too freely of this optimis tic view with disastrous results, 'and declares that fans should wait until Nebraska has achieved a victory over a team of 'equal strength before they become so sanguine. Freshies as Notre Dame Freshman Coach Racely and Assist ant Coach HoeffeL who have both seen the Catholics in action, are drilling the Freshmen in Notre Dame forma tions, to be used against the varsity In scrimmage. The coaches were im pressed with the versatility of the Hoosier attack, even as meagre as were the chances afforded in an early season game to see any choice forma tions. From the tactics being adopt ed by the Freshmen, it seems that the Catholics are using a shift similar to the famous Minnesota shift which used to send shivers to Husker hearts. A series of line bucks, forward flips' and end around plays are worked from this foramtion. Varsity in Pepful Scrimmage The first and second teams waged a spirited scrimmage at Capital Beach yesterday afternoon, which pleased the mentor immensely. The defensive work of Doyle, the open-field running of Caley, and the off-end dashes of Reese featured. V. W. C. A. Vesper Service The T. W. C. A- vesper service held yesterday was a very successful meeting- The girls gathered around the fireplace, where wood and kiani kinnic were popping, sputtering, and at last burning. Mrs. Evangeline Long Pope sang "The Pine." Jeannette Finney on the "Meetings of Estes Park;- Gertrude De Sautelle on "Rec reation;" Harriet Ramey on The Place." and Doris Slater on "The Girls gave a vivid picture of the con ference at Estes park. . ..
