The London Times recently pub

written by the scientific correspond

address delivered by Trof. W. L. De
Bnufre, of the department of me
chanical engineering at the Univers

The Times correspondent summar
izes Professor DeBaufre's opinions
in part as follows: "Civilization as it
is organized today and with it the
possibility of leisure fvom the im
mediate struggle for existence to be
devoted to reasearch and philosophy,
to the nrts and pleasures of life, de
pends more directly on mechanical
power more than on any other fact

with force and eloquence by Pro
fessor DeBaufre in an address re

Nebraska.
"The most direct avenue towards
the solution, of the problem of pre

its consequent disintegration of civ

"Farmer" Burns, famous wrestle

afternoon and evening dispensing a
few po! utera on the manly art of
pinning the shoulders of one man to
the mat And he did. In fact, he
was able to do it with great speed.
His holds seemed to follow logically,
one after the other.
Burns has been in the wrestling
game since he was eight years old.
He has been in some six thousand
matches and has lost only seven of
them.
Burns says that the wrestlers are
all in good shape and that all they
need is a little improvement in the
way of getting a hold on their man
as well ns changing the hold when it
is neoesary. In the exhibition giv
en the wrestlers proved that they j
were in good shape as Burns had said
and were learning the new holds.
Burns is going to be around the cam
pus for. some time.

1 'A
PRACTICE ECONOMY
(Indiana Daily Student)
College students would be doing
well if they acquired among other
good habits tho trait of being eco
nomical. Trobably there is no other
word that Americans in general de
test so much, but in this day of the
hicrh cost of living, it caA not be
practiced any too much in its true
meaning. One should be able to dis
tinguish, however, between being
economical and stingy for there is
danger of the latter getting the best
of a person.
It is for the college student's own
good that economy should be prac
In college a Btudent often
believes the world is waiting to re
ceive him and that it owes him a liv
ing, and a good one at that 'But it
is not so. It is vastly different go
ing to college on money from home
than working for $20 or $25 a week
with all one's expenses to pay. If
a student has not learned economy
before leaving college he is due for
a rather rude awakening.
Theodore Roosevelt wisely said
that thrift was simply the art .of
spending money wisely.
Edward W. Book in a magazine
article said thai few acts of conduct
are so small that they go unnoticed
and that few are so lowly and hum
ble that the eyes of some one are
not upon them. He was speaking
of a certain young man, a friend of
the son of the house, who always
turned off every light when he left
his room, and how punctilious he was
in tho little things about his room.
The wife had mentioned these things
to her husband, who said nothing.
But when tho young man was gradu
ated from college he was asked to
enter the business. It was the lit
tle things that counted.
It has been said if a man can be
trusted with tho little things ho can
be trusted in all things. There are
too few persons who realize this and
especially young persons. Being
economical should not only apply to
saving money, but one can be eco
nomical with time and other per
son's property. If all the time wast
ed were put to good advantage, only
one's imagination can picture the re
sults. So get the habit of practicing
economy. Some one may be watch
ing you to see what you can do with
the little things in life and whether
you are capable of bigger responsibilities.
