Notes.

In an address on What the United states
Has to Learn from the Education and
Technical Training Of Germany recently
given before the Brooklyn Institute of Art
and Sciences. President Hadley of Yale uni
versity said that the German people, as n
commercial nation, must be reckoned with
by all nations. He based his talk on per-
sonal study and observation while he was
lecturing before the universities in Germ
any last winter.
DR.. Hadley laid particular stress upon
the growth and usefulness of the technical
schools in Germany during the last half
century. Before the spread of these schools
in Germany, he said. the Germans we're
considered an idealistic and sentimental
people.
To-day they are intensely practical" he
said. "They are. indeed, more practical
than the Americans. They have become a
military race. Their ideas are technical.
They value things for their value in dol
lars and cents or for the social position
which these things give their possessors.
Thu kaiser has been a leader in bringing
about these changes in the views of life en-
tertained by his subjects.
our good technical schools are rare.
The graduates of our technical schools get
most Of their training in the shop, on the
farm or in the mine. In Germany the best
part Of the students training IS received
In the schools. The objects of the system
In the German schools are two-to develop
the individual and to advance the welfare
or the country by teaching the students
what will best advance the interests OF the
country.
The attitude Of public mind in rma
and America to the respective educational
systems is significant. In this country It is
regarded as an accident II a man who has
been taught the theories OF commercial nfe
in the schools succeeds when he begins his
active career. In Germany it is considered

who have not been trained In the schools.

Farmers short Course in Iowa state
College,


AMES, Ia, Nov. 22.-(Special)-The tenth
annual farmers short course in live stock
and farm crops work will be held from
January 4 to January 16. 1909, at the Iowa
Agricultural college. This course has been
planned especially for the busy man. Many
special features have been added to the
work this year, which have not been given
heretofore. These include animal diseases.
farm machinery, soils, horticulture and
poultry work.
The equipment in all lines is stronger
than ever before. Specimens of the best
breeds of live stock will be secured from
the foremost herds and flocks of America.
These, in addition to the excellent lot of
animals owned by the college, will furnish
by all odds the best collection Of animals
ever used for stock judging work. A spe-
cial feature of this years work will be a
complete slaughter test on cattle. sheen
and swine, conducted by John Gosling OF
Kansas City.
Special advanced classes have been ar
ranged for those who have taken work at
any previous short course at the college
or at the district short courses Of Iowa.
A fee OF So will be charged those from
Iowa and s. for those from outside OF the
state.

Important Experiments with Coal In
the Engineering Department.
The engineering department Of the Uni
versity Of Missouri recently completed a
series OF experiments dealing with the
storage Of coal. Experiments were made
with coal exposed to the weather. stored
in dry Easements and stored where 1t was
either partly or entirely covered with
water. After four months the various
samples were taken to the laboratories and
tested TO determine what changes had
taken place in the chemical nature Of the
coal, The coal exposed to the weather
was found to have lost 50 per cent in a
year. The coal stored in a damp place
was found to have deteriorated. but not so
much as the former. The samples exposed
In a dry cellar were found to be aim ost
as sound as when first taken from the
mine.
A new fraternity has been organized at
the university, to consist of men who at

In ten years. The co-eds of the university
have long desired to have a representative
on the publication, which Is considered the
most important OF student publications in
the school. They won this year by a
shrewd political trick. In the students
election the girls promised the arts and
science department their solid vote against
the engineering and agricultural depart
ments provided the arts juniors would give
them a representative on the Savitar. The
Geal went through and as a result the girls
will have a voice in editing the annual.

He told of the incident recently in a lee

from the broader purposes of life. Your
views will change as you grow older and
you will be able to decide more wisely"

students and faculty of the State uni
versity are deeply interested in the selec-
ton of a chancellor to succeed E.. Ben
jamin Andrews, who recently resigned on
the advice of his physicians. Many of the
students and teachers as we'll are in favor
Of the calling of Ross Hill, now president
Of the Missouri State university. DR.. Hill
Is a graduate Of the Nebraska State uni
versity and was for a time assistant chan
cellor.
The report comes from Missouri, how
ever, that President Hill is well suited to
the people down there and while he loves
the university OF this state and naturally
would be proud to come back as a chan
cellor to the institution he left as a
graduate. 1t would require a hard pull to
get him back.
At the university farms these days the
principal work is the preparation for the
National Corn show to be held in Omaha.
Every department will have an exhibit
at that show and the faculty believes the
benefit to be derived by the people of the
state from these exhibits will be second
only to the good that will be done tho
school. The teachers expect the exhibits
to attract attention to the university farm
and thus get the farmers of the state
more interested in its work. And. of
course, the more interest there is taken in
the farm work the more benefit will the
people of the state receive.
The students Of the university have been
outdoing themselves this week in rushing
and pledging proposed fraternity members
There has been a banquet, dinner or some
kind of entertainment every night. Mrs.
Ruth Leavitt Bryan entertained the mem
bers of the Sigma Chi Friday night and
repeated the minstrel show which had been
presented to the members of the sorosis
some nights ago. Sixty-three guests were
present. The rushing became so strenuous
that It has been decided hereafter the en-
tertainment is to last only through two
weeks.

ONE MORE HORRIBLE EXAMPLE
sad Fate of Hiram HiGsins, a Mis-
souriRn with n PiDe
Habit.

A horrible example OF the evils OF to-
bacco recently came to light in Missouri
Hiram Higgins. addicted TO the weed
through nearly all his 81 years, arose with
the day, saddled his horse and, pipe in
mouth, rode fifteen miles to town. After
transacting much important business he
returned home in time to peel a peck Of
potatoes for the MONDAY dinner. after
which he beguiled his time by blowing an
acre OF winter wheat land with a balky
mule. While thus engaged he observed the
futile efforts OF one of his hands" en-
gagged In breaking a y~esrling colt. Drop
ping his plow handles, Hiram strsightway
addressed himself to the job. The colt
flung him over a five-barTed fence and
landed him on his head. Hiram mad his
way 40 the house complaining OF feeling
a little tired" The country doctor, who
felt Hiram's pulse and looked at his tongue,
announced that he was suffering from too
much tobacco and sagely declared that IL
he didn't stop the noxious weed right off
short he would till an early grave. Hiram
quit.
Is il not time to curb the curse Of nieo-
tine? Had not the pernicious pipe Slapped
his strength think how many more miles
this farmer could have ridden, how many
potatoes he might have peeled, how many
hard acres piowed and how many retrac-
tory colts broken into docile palfreys! Let

DERELIcTS OF THE BRINY DEEP
some of the Means Employed In Safe
guarding Commerce on
the Seas.

No country in the world does so much to
protect ocean borne from loss
by collision with derelicts as does the
United States. For many years II has pub
lished a monthly chart OF the North At
~lantic,. which includes among numerous
items OF useful Information for mariners
the locations OF all derelicts according to
the latest reports. For many years It was
the custom to give naval vessels and their
officers and crews an opportunity to see
active service by pursuing the elusive de-
relict with. the object of destroying II. The
famous dynamite cruiser vesuvius was
among those that used to get a little gun
practice with a derelict as the target. For
two years the revenue cutter Mohawk has
been doing duty as a derelict destroyer,
with such success that the November by
geographic chart shows no derelict reported
more than once, or earlier than Septem-
Der So on the old charts It was not unusual
to find several reports OF the same derelict
ranging over a period sometimes of more
than a year.
I'm the course Of a few days the Seneca,
a vessel built especially for putting these
lingering victims OF the wrath OF Father
Neptune out of existence, will so into COM
mission. This vessel is the first built for
such a purpose in the world. In general
appearance 1t will resembl the ocean going
revenue cutters OF the United states, but
viii have two tunnels 10 distinguish It
from the cutters. II will be provided with
torpedoes and guns for firing explosive
shells, and po~srful towing appa-
ratus for towing any wanderer, not too far
gone. into a haven of safety.
The government has also found a use for
wireless telegraphy In the protection of
from derelicts and icebergs, A
few days ago the photographic office in
Broad street received a wireless message
from the steamer Caracas, which had
sailed a couple Of days before for Porto
Rico. The master of the ship reported
passing the sodden hulk OF the schooner
Howard Comton Of Philadelphia, and gave
