WILCOX OUT OF OFFICE
Ret ring County Treasurer Short
in Accounts $37,552.

When III. HI. Whitlock, of Danville,
ILL.,, the retiring county treasurer,
turned his Office over to his successor,
o. B. Wisong, it became publicly
known that the retiring treasurer had
found himself $37,552 short, and that
he had caused his attorney
to call his bondsmen together, to
whom he had related the exact condi-
ton of his Office.
Whitlock, at the suggestion of the
bondsmen, turned over to Attorney
J. w. Keesler, as trustee, all of his
real estate, appraised at $4,000 and
membranes of $1,000, and all of his
life insurance, amounting to $1,000.
After having done this, the bondsmen
made good the deficiency and Whit
lock was enabled to turn over to his
successor all of the cash required, but

Census Director Announces the Mum
Der Of People in United States.

Official figures of the census of the
United States, just announced at the
national capital, give population OF
93,402, Isl, an increase of 1000 per cent
since 1900, when the population was
76,303,3S7
The new figure for 1910 does not in
clude the Philippines, Guam or Samoa
but takes in Alaska, Hawaii Porto
Rico, the Panama canal zone and those
aboard naval vessels.
Illinois is found to be the third larg-
est state and to contain the second
largest city Pennsylvania is next to
New York in number of inhabitants.
The number of states has been increas-
ed in the last ten years from forty five
to forty-seven. There are four terri

The announcement of the population
of the United States is the climax of
the months of work on the part OF
Census Director Durand and his army

Poor Food "a Canada.

According to the bulletins of the in.
land revenue department of Canada.
that country appears to have become a
dumping ground for the adulterated
foods which were driven out of the
United States by the pure food laws.
Ground pepper Is the most badly adul
terated article found there. While it
is true that the percentage of adultera.
tion Is less than formerly, the adulter.
alton is still there. Out of 145 sam
Piles of ground cloves collected in var.
ious parts Of the country only seventy
four were genuine. Chicory and roast.
ed grain are frequently found in coffee.
Native wines are sold as foreign
brands.
To some extent the government it.
self Is to blame for the prevalence of
adulteration. The average citizen is
more likely, says the Buffalo Express,
to take his chance on having his food
adulterated If he has to pay for an ex-
animation himself. Many samples of
adulterated food have been sent to
Ottawa for examination, but the gov
errment refuses to make the desired
examination unless the person send.
Ing the sample Is willing to pay 81.
The department will have as assume a
different attitude II it hopes to drive
out adulterated foods.

Colleges Accused Of Turning Ont
Careless Graduates.

Colleges Accused Of Turning Ont
Careless Graduates.
American colleges and universities
are tnrning out slovenly students in
civil and electrical engineering. They
are careless, show lack Of close train
Ing, and are unpopular with American
manufacturers They cannot compete
with the young men who come here
from the foreign universities and tech
nical schools.
These are the charges made by Fred.
erick w. Taylor, Of the Society for the
Promotion of Education, and backed
By A. L. Dabney and other prominent
members of the American Society Of
Civil Engineers. There is not the
shadow Of doubt, says Taylor, that
tie overwhelming majority Of employ
els want nothing do with the engi-
neer graduates, II 1t Is possible to get
along without them, until they have
been out Of college for year or two
at least.
lis 1t necessary" Prof. Taylor asks,
that the young graduate should leave
college with an education which is Of
no value In the eyes of the average
employer, and that he should be un-
happy and discontinued for period
of one or two years after graduation?
There are two particular faults which
are responsible for this condition Of
affairs, and both of them are remedial
BILE. In the first place the students
are under too loose discipline at col
lege. They are allowed a greater free
dom than they have ever had before
or will ever have again. They absent
themselves from lectures They work
they please, an. as much as they
please, the only restriction being that
they have to pass certain examina
tions. Their habits are left almost en-
tirely to themselves. But, when they
begin commercial life, those habits are
regulated and rigidly prescribed by
some one else; and the process Of re-
adjustment is a painful one.
1.-THE second fault is due to the radi-
cal difference in the treatment the
young men get In and out of college.
The work of the student is absorbing
ideas and knowledge for his own use.
Until he graduates he is served by
some one else. When he gets out of
college he begins serving others. The
entire emphasis of the college life is
an intellectual training, but for success
in life intellectual training is not 70
important as either character or good
sense. The graduate needs to realize
that almost nine, .nths Of the work
that every man has to do is monoton-
Gus, tiresome, undressing"
Taylor recommends a year in the
engineering shop at the close of the
freshman year, after which the college
education can be resumed and com.
pleted. In college the student deals
with materials. In the shop he deals
with men. In college the student gets
only individual training. The whole
trend of modern shop work is toward
cooperation. The post graduate
courses, he says, do not meet the
wants Of engineering students.
