PSYCHOLOGY AND VOCATION
\ Learned Scientific Discourse on
Their Value.

The subject of voluntary motor
ability is at present one of the most
rapidly advancing departments OF
psychology. Given the will. or the
volition, to perform an act. what will
be the result? Our rap dity and ac-
cUracy of action depend on attention
fatigue and habit. Rapidly is re-
quired by the typewriter, the typeset-
ter, the StenOgrapher, the violin and
the piano player, the runner. and
even the cigaret girl who works by the
piece. Accuracy Is the essential for
the mechanic. the carpenter, the
craftsman. the chemist. the billiard
player, the blacksmith, and endless
others. Gracefulness in voluntary ac-
ton is the proper adjustment of rapid
ity and extent of movement: it is al
most entirely a psychological affair
Gracefulness is the condition sine qua
non for the artist the decorator. the
orator, the actor, the dancer. and
every society man and woman.
What would be more natural than
for such persons to inquire of psycholo-
gy concerning the laws governing rap
! idity, accuracy and gracefulnesS?
Since the advent of the new psychol-
| ogy such inquiries do not remain en-
tirely unanswered. What a mistake
it is to train, a child to an occupa-
| ton for which he mas no qualification
No one would expect a cOlOr-blind boy
to become a great artist, or a girl
with a swelling on the vocal chord

SAM JONES' LATEST.

HartWell (Ga.) Sun: An amusing in
cident occurred at the close of Sam
Jones sermon at Pulaski the other
day. Stepping down from the pulpit
folding his hands across his breast
and looking sOlemnly over the audi
ence, tie great revivalist said:
Il want all the women in this
crowd who have not spoken a harsh
word or harbored an unkind thought
toward their husbands for a month to
stand up"
One old woman apparently on the
shady side of 60 stood up.
Come forward and give me your
hand" said the preacher.
The woman did so, whereupon Jones
said.
Now turn around and let this au-
dience see the best-looking woman in
the country"
After taking her seat, the revivalist
addressed the men:
Now l want all the men in this
crowd who have not spoken a harsh
word or harbored an unkind thought
toward their wives for a month past
to stand up"
TWenty-seven great big strapping
fellows hoped out of the audience
with al the alacrity of champagne
corks.
"Come forward and give me your
hands, my dear boys"
Jones gave each one a vigorous
shake, after which he ranged all of
them side by side in front of the pull
pit and facing the audience. He
looked them over carefully and sol
EMMY, and then, turning around TO
the audience, he said:
Il want you all to take a good look
at the t"cnty-seven biggest liars in
the state of Tennessee"

decided to save some time by taking
a snort cut in passing He'll Gate. The
Hussar struck a sunken reef. and as
she was badly damaged her command
er decided to run her ashore.
She had taken on board seventy
prisoners of war from the prison ship
before leaving New York. and as her
hold was filled with stores they had
been chained on the gun deck. As
their fate was of little consequence.
the captain did not release them. but
kept his crew at work in an attempt
to get the Hussar to the beach before
she fOundered
HawserS were carried ashore and
fastened to trees. and an attempt was
made to draw the vessel in, but before
much progress had been made she
hlled heeled over, tore up the trees
by the roots and sank in eighty feet
OF water. drowning her manacled priS-
onerS. Some of the crew escaped.
From that time forward stories of
the Hussar's sunken guineas led to all
sorts OF attempts to acquire sudden
wealth by their recovery. A British
company sent two briggs to the SPOT in
1919. but the United States govern
ment refused to permit them to an

temptS were made to blow I'D the
wreck with dynamite, but up to date
unless some lucky and secretive indi-
viGual hid success and fortune under
the guise of failure-the guineas have
been undisturbed.
There is one story that has always
caused the treasure seekers some I'M
eaSineSS. 1t is to the effect that the
HuSsar was wrecked Intentionally. and
that her treasure was carried away by
men who Matched the plot under her
ensign.
Mr.. Thomas and his suction pump.
however, are new, and he. at least,
believes that he will pump up some
thing more valuable than the rusty
buttons and water buckets which have
rewarded the treasure seekers who
have preceded him.

Washington, Dec. 14-Mr. Villas
made a brief but vigorous speech in
the senate in behalf of the bill to eS-
tabli8h a national university in this
city. The bill was taken up upon mo-
ton Of Mr.. Hunton, of Virginia. Mr..
Hale objected to the consideration of
the bill at this time, but sug-
gested that it be referred to the
calendar. under a rule of the senate,
where it could be debated in some
way commensurate with its impor-
lance" Mr.. Hunton insisted, however,
that he had given notice Of his con-
templated action and address to the
senate on the bill.
Mr.. Blackburn moved that when the
senate adjourned it be to meet on
Monday. Then the friends of the Mic
araguan canal bill rallied and the mo-
ton was beaten-23 to %.
Mr.. Morgan then renewed the adj
dress in favor of the Nicaraguan ca
nal bill and, in closing, asked that a
vote be taken. By a vote of 26 to % it
was decided to adjourn till Monday

was ordered and Mr.. Cochran
moved to recommit the bill with in
structions to strike out the appropria-
ton for the collection Of the income

PAPER FROM SUNFLOWERS.

1t is possible to make paper out of
nearly anything, and the latest ma
tCrial suggested is the stalk of the sun
flower Some few weeks ago the ex-
pertinent was tried at a factory in
the Thomas valley, first with ham
mer and an anvil and afterward with
regular paper-making machinery. In
the latter instance some 500 pounds
Of pulp We're tested and they produced
about 800 pounds of paper. The sub
stance, however, was of a coarse text
ure and far better suited for wrapping
up parcels than for taking printers
ink In fact the conclusion was that
sunflowe- stalks are too short in fiber
to make good paper without the addi-
ton Of some foreign material like rags.
What is more, the ingredient would
have to be nearly fifty per cent. of
the whole pulp. Accordingly, sun
flower paper hardly seems practicable,
unless, indeed, it's title gave it a fancy
value to the survivors of the aesthetic
school. Unfortunately, they have be-
come so reduced that the market
would be extremely NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

that there is nothing to render i'm

the canal could be built for $50 ,OO0.-

penditures of SIT 100000 already spent
had demonstrated that the actual cost
would be even lower than that esti-
mated by Mr.. Menocal. The two
Of congress practically agree l
that the cost would be about S7O,OOO.-

proposition contemplating government
ownership in the canal, that England
owns stock in the Suez canal, and
why should not the United States
own stock in the Nicaraguan canal?
The government ownership only
means that the government could eN-
ert its influence over the canal for the
protection Of its citizens by force
The canal must be built under the
fostering care of some government.
We must act now or abandon the
canal to its fate. At the conclusion of
Mr.. Morgan's speech Mr.. Mitchell
briefly expressed hearty approval of
the scheme to build the canal.
