ILLINOIS
roRress of the Department of Com
merciaI Education.


The University Of Illinois was one OF
the first institutions in the country when
undertook to meet the demand for higher
commercial education. The results OF the
work Of the last six years have fully
justified the undertaking, and have given
renewed confidence to the work. The
courses in business administration nave
proved popular from the beginning and the
number of students electing them has
rapidly increased. Besides the students en-
rolled In the four-yesr business courses
many others enrolled in the arts and
sciences, engineering, law and agriculture
have awaited themselves Of the opportuni-
ties offered by these courses. Many OF
the graduates Of the university in these
courses have gone into business, and not
a few have already achieved a consider.
able measure of success. The work Of the
courses In business administration has
pa ssed entirely beyond the experimental
stage and now takes it's place among the
important services which the university
is rendering the people Of the state. i
deserves the increasing patronage Of the
people of the state.

In speaking Of the part that college
graduates are coming to play in civic and
national life. william Allen White asserts
in his article The Old order C~hsngeth"
in the May American Magazine that II is
due TO the introduction Of the laboratory
in our college curriculums. He SAYS:
"a generation ago. when the college curri-
culum began to broaden and the laboratory
began to take an important place in col
lego life. educated men bewailed the ma
terial spirit Of our educstion. There was
a movement to force education back to the
h~umanities. back to culture, back to the
sweet serenity Of books But now the
| laboratory is returning to the democracy
that founded IL. the service that is due.
Our scientific societies are most purely al
truistic. The health and well being of the
. masses is engaging scientists all over the
raticn. A score OF scientific societies, state
and national. have rs their reason Of being
some improvement in our public life. The
Society for the Prevention Of Tuberculosis

coming into public life and one group OF
them has formed and is maintaining the
National Tax association, the Economic as
ISOLATION and the American Academy OF
Political and Social Sciences. which hold
national conferences and are gathering
NEST valuable data and forming most inn
portant conclusions in economics and soci-
ology. The future work of these and SINH
lar associations will be inestimable. But
II il altogether unselfish. There is not a
dollar in Il for anyone. Like ALL OF the
great American democratic movements, the
study of economics is for the good OF the

New wireless Device.

Reginald A. Fesssnder Of Brant Rock,
Mass, is said TO have perfected a wireless
telephone so that the United States navy
operators failed to interrupt the waves in
a recent test of the efficiency OF the new
device. Elihu Thompson, an electrical in
