COURSE OF LECTURES
Before the COIIegeY. N. c. A. will be a
Feature Of Christian Work.

In order to induce greater interest
among the student body and extend
the work of the Y. M. G. A. through
new channels, departure from the
established custom has been decided
upon. Those interested in the Society's
work were of the opinion that interest
could be stimulated by infusing fresh
enthusiasm and new views from ex-
perienced men. Accordingly arrange
ments have been made whereby prom
inent professional men will deliver
lectures on their professions as an oc-
cupation for the prospective graduate.
During the fall term, Mr.. w. G.
Way will discuss, Law regarded as q
life work for the young man."
Mr.. w. w. Mills will present the
advantages of a bushes career, while
DR.. E. Sloan will present the advant-
ages and disadvantages of medicine as
a profession.
In the winter term there will be only
two speakers. Prof. M. R. Andarews
will dwell on the attractions of Teach
ing, while the Rev. DR.. w. q. Roe
will speak of the opportunities for do
ing good in the ministry.
These lectures will be delivered in
Andrews Hall and will each occupy
one night only The date has not been
determined and will probably not be
announced until later, as the speakers
do not know what evenings would best
suit themselves or the Y. M. c. A.
All these men are eminent in their
several professions and it may safely
be predicted that what they have to
say upon the professions and occupa-
tions in which they have won success
will be replete with interest to the
students and will be listened to with
the closest attention.

A LAW WONT HELP
DR.. Eall Believes the Sidewalk
Spitters Beyond Legal Reach.
OTHER CITIES HAVE TRIED IT
A Campaign OF Education, the Health
Commissioner Thinks, Is the
Only Thing.

That the sidewalks of the city are made
loathsome by the free and careless spit
ting or thoughtless persons is not to be
doubted but Health Commissioner Hal
won't have II that Minneapolis falls
down" in this regard more than other
cities OF her class. There is no ordinance
in Minneapolis prohibiting splitting on the
sidewalks, and there is in St. Paul and
some other cities. Nevertheless, Dr..
Hall insists that the evil Is no
more fragrant here than In those cities
that prohibit the practice. He de-
clares also that ii is a mistake &c try 10
combat the nuisance by ordinance. He
says:
We have no ordinance in Minneapolis pro-
hSiting splitting on the sidewalks, and l do
not believe 1t would be advisable TO have one.
In my opinion such ordinance could not be
enforced successfully. st. Paul has an ordi-
nance Of this sort, but defy any one to show
me wherein the conditions there are any bet
ter than they are in Minneapolis. You VIII
md Just many tobacco-c chewing loaters
using conspicuous corners for their operations
there as here In Minneapolis. Detroit once
had such an ordinance. and the authorities
there did their best to enforce it, but with no
satisfactory results. Then the ordinance was
repealed, and now frequent signs about the
streets say, Please do not spit the side
walk" and the results are just as good, or
better, ! am told, than when the ordinance
was in effect Personally l do not believe in
the efficacy Of ordinance to abate this
nuisance 1t is only through education in
cleaner habits and through growth of pub
lie sentiment that we can hope to bring about
any Improvement in conditions along this
line. Splitting in street cars and other public
conveyances, on the other hand, can be met
successfully by ordinance. There has been a
vase change for the better in the condition Of
our street cars since the health departments
Of the two cities began their crusade against
this nuisance a few years ago. Public opinion
is strongly behind the ordinance and 1t can
De enfroced successfully. But l do not be-
'leye Minneapolis has yet reached the point
that makes it possible to prevent splitting on
the sidewalks through the operation of law.

NO I'D. H." EXPRESS PACKAGES
The Companies Follow the Lead O1
the Railroads.

Following the action OF the railroad
companies east of Chicago in abolishing
the pass system, the express companies
have made an announcement that, begin
ming with Jan. l. no franks for the trans
portation Of packages over their lines
viii be issued. This order Will strike
big shippers, who for years have enjoyed
the frank privilege for personal ship
ments. It will also shut off state and
city officials.
1t is reported that a movement is we'll
under way among western roads to abol-
ish the custom of giving influential ship
-pers free transportation. This has been
in force since railroads were built. Each
line gives away an immense amount of
transportation annually in this manner.
