COLUMN
Conducted by the w. Z. L. U.

The business men on block in ST.
Joseph refused to sign saloon petition
on the grounds that the ladies did not
like to pass the saloon to 60 to their
store. We wish all business men were
only 80 considerate, it would help mat.
ters. We are going to trade just as far
from the saloon as possible and jasper
is a good distance from them, hence we
persuade all our friends to trade in JAS
per and this summer there will be To-
cal Or ton election in the county and
we predict dry county. Now il it is
offensive for ladies to pass the saloons
and the smell of beer and whiskey, why
do men tolerate them? Are their senses
and tastes of lower order? don't
believe they are but 1 think the early
use of tobacco deadens a man $ sense of
taste and smell and constant splitting
creates thirst. Hence saloon to him
is thing Of beauty and a Joy forever.
If q young man casts his i1rst vote
and has never taken his first chew or
smoke it's not likely he'll use tobacco at
all or frequent a saloon.
! There's an old saying, "Whats sauce
, for the goose is sauce for the gander,"
which shows tastes were originally the
same. Adam and Eve both liked apples
an now in this civilized age OF the world
men seem to cultivate taste and habits
not fit for women or children. Will the
future find the women dragged down to
drunkards level or the men elevated to
u plane above the passing ofa saloon?

Weekly letter from Agricultural Col
lege in Mail and Breeze:
Educators ard thoughtful men out
side of educational WALKS have long con-
tended that our school work was too
one sided too much training of intellect
through books and not enough brain
training through scientific exercises Of
the hands. And so all over the country
effort is being put forth to educate
teachers in so-called manual trainieg or
industrial work. In the Kansas State
Agricultural college great attention has
been given to the department known
as the mechanical engineering depart
ment in charge of Prof. E B Nc CormiclS.
Every fist year male student Is required
to take two terms of simple carpentry
and one term of blacksmithing. 1t is
remarkable what fine piec of work the
young men turn out. The first term is
devoted largely to training in handling
tools and care of tools, with simple
joinery, while in the second term more
intricate work is turned cut. 1hs is
intended to give to all boys whether in
tending to go back to the farm or t.
take up any other calling good train
ing in woodwork. The No.k of the first
term in blacksm thing consists Of
exercises in forging and welding com
mon iron, mild steel and Norway iron
One Of the exercises is the making of a
complete chain. The second term OF
blacksmithing consists principally in
forging, annealing and tempering high
grades of tool steel.
The young men who choose the regu-
lar course in mechanical engineering
have a most thorough training in wood,
iron and brass work. turniug out al
sorts of machines and machinery. One
student who graduates this year, farm
boy from Mitchell oouaty, has been
working all year on four-cylinder
gasoline traction engine, 40 horse power.
Students have urill in running and
building gas engines and steam engines
and in making and testing all kilds ol
ca a,tings.
The graduates from the mechanical
engineering course are to be founC-2acB
on the farm, in great railroad shops, in
manufacturing plants Of all kinds
teaching manual training in preparatory
schools, in drafting Offices, etc. Some
of these yeuug men have gone out and
in few months have been put il charge
Of large department with large forces ot
men, practically all Of them much Older
ii Yeas. The gradutes afe eagerly
sought for. Prof Mccormick has 70
ceived letters from over Ii dozen large
establishments asking for from to
men each. He could have placed 81
graduates, had he had that many, IL
cod positions. All who have been 81 n
out have "made good" Two other YER
important branches Of industrial train
ing carried on at the college are, tb
domestic. science department for tn
girls and the printing department.

Thomas E. Watson, lawyer and
well known literary and political
writer, boots at the idea advanced
by the president of the Universi-
ty of Missouri that no man can
achieve success until he has had
a four years course in college.
Mr.. Watson points instance after
instance proving to the contrary,
and pays the High Schools of the
country this tribute: Sin the
course of a thorough High
School education a boy learns
just as many words as he knows
what to do with. A good High
School training will give him
absolutely every English word
that he need ever use before
court or jury, before the people
on the hustings or the Solons in
the Senate. "
