COLUMBIA ENGINEERING SCHOOLS.
New Administrative Head Of Depart
ment of M~etRIIurRY.

New Admin ~IstrntiVe Head of Depart
ment of MetaIIurgy.
one Of the many applications of cleo
tricity, and one that has been making
great strides in recent years, is the use
of the current for refining copper. 1t has
taken the place Of much more elaborate
processes and is one of the modern methods
Of refining which has not been taught in
detail in the scientific schools Of the coun-
try, but will be at Columbia university in
the future, by one of the most expert cleo
tro-metallurgical engineer in this country.
Following out the plans for keeping the
schools of engineering at the universities
completely up to date, the university has
secured the services of Arthur Lucien
Walker as the administrative head of the
department Of metallurgy, and he is hard
at work getting ready for his academic
duties.
The placing Of such an eminent engineer
in charge of such an important department
is really the broadening of the plan which
has been in vogue at Columbia for several
years of giving the students the benefit
of lectures on the newest developments in
science by men eminent in their respective
fields of work, which has been made pos
sible for the reason that this university is
situated in the heart Of a great city, where
the leading scientists of the world are
gathered and daily engaged in solving
practical problems in worlds work. The
result of all this has been to give the stu
dents instruction in the practical side of the
profession they propose to adopt and thus
make them better fitted to cope with the
problems which will be presented to them
as soon as they are graduated.
AS the head of the department of metal
lurgy, Prof. Walker brings to the university
the experience of many years in actual
practice to aid him in his task, for he is
reckoned as one of the leaders in his pro-
fession. He will take the place of Prof.
Howe, who will, however. continue to de-
liver his lectures on iron and steel. but
will devote more of his time in the future
to research, investigation and publication
than has been possible in the past.
Prof. Walker was graduated from the Co
lumbia. School of Mines as mining engineer
in 1888, and from then till the present time
has been continuously engaged In field
work, beginning his professional career as
chemist and assayer to the Old Dominion
Copper Mining compan of Globe, Ariz..
where later, he became assistant superin-
tendent in charge of the mines and smelter.
and afterwards superintendent of the works
of the company, which position he held
until 1898. when he was called east to the
management of the Baltimore Electrolytic
Copper Refining company, where, during
the five and a half years, he made for
himself a sound reputation both RS a metal
lurgist and as an administrator

SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK
Harvsrd's Graduate School of Business
Administration.
COLUMBIA HAS SOME NEW HEADS
Active Preparations for the Approach
ing school Year--VHrious reR-
lures of Educational
Development.

The Official Register Of Harvard univer-
sity in its istue Of last week contains the
first detailed Announcement of the Graduate
School of Business Administration which
will be opened to students on October /,
under the direction Of Dean Edwin F. Gay.
The unique feature of the school,, both in
Harvard experience and in the educational
world, is that the new school starts with
the requirement of a college degree for adj
mission. Upon that foundation Of liberal
education it rests a severe two years
course, partly prescribed and partly elective,
leading to the degree of master in business
administration and representing work in the
following special fields: Banking and
finance, accounting and auditing. insurance,
industrial organization, transportation, com-
mercial law, economic resources and public
service. Courses in French, German and
Spanish correspondence will be offered with
the special object of enabling graduates Of
the school to read and write letters in these
languages and to understand the accepted
forms Of business correspondence. Two of
the most important courses to be offered
will be entitled respectively Corporation
Finance" and industrial Organization"
Among those who have been engaged to
lecture on corporation finance are Herbert
Knox Smith, commissioner of corporations
in the United States Department of Com
merce and Labor, Frederick P. Fish, Prof.
Edwin S. Meade of the University Of Penn
sylvanla, James F. jackson, ex-chairman
of the Massachusetts Railroad commission,
c.. c. Birmingham Of New York, receiver of
the Westinghouse company Judge c.. NJ.
Hough of the United States court for the
Southern district OF New York, +. A. Cleve-
land Of the New York Bureau of Municipal
Research, and G.. w Wickersham, the New
York lawyer. Among those who nave been
engaged to lecture on industrial organiza-
ton are Frederick w. Taylor. ex-president
Of the American Society of Mechanical En-
gineers, and the leading authority on fac
tory organization, ]. o. Pagan, a signalman
employed by the Boston & Maine railroad.
the author of the recent articles in the
Atlantic Monthly entitled Confessions of a
Signalman,' and Russell Robb OF the firm
of Stone & Webster, Boston.
One of the most important features of the
school will be the practical work required
of each student in the summer. The object
of this work will be two-fold, first, to
teach the students from practical expert.
ence and observation the elements of bust.
ness that cannot be taught in the class
room, and, secondly, to bring them in CON
tact with the men with whom their life
work is to be done. The school does not
pretend to graduate men who will begin al
tile top or high up in their several lines Of
business. 1t does aim to teach them how t
work and how to apply powers of observa,
tor, analysis and invention to ~practica
business problems.

EXPENSIVE SCRATCHES.
DefacIng school Fixtures Entails a
Heavy Loss.


Records of childish romances scrawled on
walls, scratched on window pancs, and
carved on desks and woodwork in the New
York public schools will this year cost the
city $1,000, 900 to efface.
Superintendent c. b. J.. Snyder has just
made his report of what it will cost to put
the 800 school buildings in shape for the
fall term which opens September IA.
Practically all that needs to be done, he
says, is to repair the walls, windows and
desks, which were defaced last year by
the children.
There are Cos, 600 boys and girls in the
New York schools and, figuring there are
as many girls as boys, this means about
}.7,5O0 romances. Judging from the rec
crds found by Mr.. Snyder, cupid is no re-
7pector OF persons. Legends announcing
81 love Alice" mabel is my girl" or
Willie Jones is a lovely boy" are jus,
is numerous in the schools of the aristo-
ratio sections as they are in the Ghetto.

SCHOOL SAVINGS BANK.
Possibilities and Benefits shown in
West Des Moines schools.

A practical Illustration of the possibili-
ties and benefits Of the penny savings bank
in connection with the public schools. has
been given in the West Des Moines Qowa)
schools. The principal OF each school Is
supplied with 1-cent stamps and a folder
holding fifty of them. Every Friday the
children can buy these stamps with PEN
MES. When a folder is full the child can
take It to the bank and get so cents for It,
or can deposit It on savings account. The
bank pays 4 per cent interest on all sums
remaining on deposit six months. Since
the organization of the Providence Saw
ings association In 1901, the savings have
amounted to S5, 900, OF which more than
10000 are still on deposit. During the
disastrous flood two years ago, large with
drawals were made, some families finding
this their sole reliance. The largest saw
ings are made in the spring and fall. when
the children find the most work to do.
