University Chat.

If every student could realize that
right now he is beginning to make or
unmake his standing at the end OF the
semester, there would be more con-
sistent daily study and less "stuffing
and "cramming" at the end OF the
year.
This is not a plea for a daily, grind,
but for that reasonable amount OF
daily study that any student can ana
ought to do. 1t is advising that KIM
of study by which, and only by which,
the facts and principles impaired by
the University can be properly assim-
Hated by the student.

FOR A EIRE.PRooF CAPITOL.

Fortunately for the state. lightning
has solved the statehouse problem by
making a new capitol necessary. The
refusal by the voters at the November
election of a fire-proof building, appli-
cable to the needs of the state, can
not be repeated. The Missouri of the
future deserves the best capitol in the
United States.
Missouri is one of the richest states
in the union. 1t deserves a capitol
architectually a monument and work
of art. The statehouse in Indianapolis,
Ind. which cost two million dollars
and was ten years in construction, is
inferior architectually to the capitol
Missouri should have.
A capitol must be fire proof. 1t
should be permanent as building; as
a storehouse for invaluable records.
Missouri has lost already records
which can not be replaced. In the
haste to get new building. may the
impetuous spirit give way to conser,
vatism.

MODEST STUDENTS.

In a recent news item published IN
the University Missourian, a visitor
to Columbia was quoted as having
said that the students of the Univer-
sity of Missouri conduct themselves in
a modest and admirable way. The
person who made this statement is
a former university man and has been
travelling over the United States dur
ing the last twenty years, in which
time he has had opportunity to study
every section of the country, and ev-
cry class of people.
"In the East you can invariably tell
a student when you see him by the
cut of his clothes, the curved pipe.
or the cigarette" he said. Here, how
ever, the students are more modest,
and their dress and mien do not be-
tray their occupation"
This is a distinct compliment to
the students of this University, and
one they appreciate. This man said
they "are hard to distinguish from
other people" The young men and
young women of this institution are
glad to know that they are not sepa-
rated from the world; they prefer to
be not unlike the "other people" in
their actions. While they are here
endeavoring to better fit themselves
for life, for service to themselves and
to the world, they are still the sons
and daughters of average Americans
of farmers, merchants, laborers, cap
italists. wage-earners and professional
men. They wish to conduct them
selves as becomes young Americans.
It has been said that the wisest
are the most modest. The students
here do not profess superior wisdom,
but when a man voluntarily says they
are modest and well-behaved, they are
reminded of the fact that their efforts
to be true to themselves and their
University are appreciated.

ais LAzINEsS A DISEAsEw

Under this title the Review OF Re
views sets forth the opinions OF
Theodule Ribot on laziness. This writ
er does not hesitate . to call some
forms of idleness disease, and al
most leads one at first thought to
regard the lazy person as unfortunate,
and nothing worse.
"The psychologist" says Ribot, has
sought for the sources of the disease,
and he has found that congenital lazi-
ness-that whicn is obviously not will
ful-has an organic and a mental
origin. A scientifically complete ex-
animation of a series of so-called idleTs
has discovered that there was a lack
of tonicity in the whole system, that
the heart-beats were weak, that arter-
ial pressure was low, and that circula-
ton was generally of the slackest. The
truth of these foundings is pointed,
moreover, by the fact that even per-
sons of great mental and physical en-
ergy are given to indulgence in spells
of idleness which they themselves are
unable to explain since their inclina-
ton does not tend toward waste of
time"
From this point of view the lazy
person is rather to be pitied than
blamed. Nevertheless, it may not be
irreverent to suggest that the condi-
tions which M. Ribot describes might
be a result as well as a cause of idle
ness. On the other hand the spells of
idleness to which strenuous persons
are sometimes given, may be re-
suit of too great effort.
M. Ribot himself points out that to
counteract predisposition to laziness,
the interest in work and the cultiva-
ton of it by slow and gradual pro-
cesses may be suggested. He adds
that the love of work and activity is
an acquired rather than natural ten
dency, since the human tendency is
toward the line of least resistance.
This last observation almost tears
down the supposition that laziness is
a disease. If energy is acquired and
laziness may be cured by interest in
work, the work habit will solve the
problem.

PROBLEMS IN ENGINEERING
Not New Machinery But Efficient
Handling of What We Have,

Not New Machinery But Efficient
Handling of What We Have.
The problem of tomorrow, as ex-
planned to the engineering students
last night by Miner Chipman, eff
0iency engineer, is not one of new
machinery, but of the more efficient
handling of what we already have,
that is, the conservation of energy,
the development of latent power, the
lessening of friction, proper mainte-
nance, and the elimination of waste.
In the last century of machine inven-
tion and perfection, man has lost in
his mental and physical efficiency, is
the opinion of Mr. Chipman.
Men have always felt the respon-
sibility of administration" he declared,
but the essential, that of efficiency,
has been neglected. The thing of i'm
portance in mems minds has been to
do things and as long as things were
done the task was accomplished.
Whether or not the thing was done in
the best manner, with the least ex-
pense, the least waste, the least ef-
fort, was not known"
The first object of Scientific Man.
agement," according to Mr.. Chapman,
is the elimination of waste-waste
time, material and effort. He proposes
as a means for this elimination. the
establishing of standards, and finally,
the forcing of the actualities up to and
above the standards. Mr.. Chipman

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

Opponents of reciprocity with Can
ada are few. Opponents of the COM
mercial treaty now being negotiated
between the United States and Canada
are more numerous. The differences
of opinion are not strictly as to re-
ciprocity. but in the qestion of wheth-
er or not the proposed treaty provides
a mutual give and take.
President Taft believes a fair ex-
change will result from the Reciprocity
Bill. Speaker Cannon believes the
measure is unfavorable to the United
States. Both are fighting to have
their beliefs indorsed by the action of
Congress. The President is supported
by 'insurgent" Republicans and some
Democrats; Speaker Cannon is sup
ported by "stand-patters." 1t is the
first important issue in which the
President has openly stood with the
progressives." His stand on the
tariff question is that tariffs which

4 Poem, for Today
Journalism in Cactus Center.

journalism in Cactus Center.
Down here in Cactus Center we amt
much on splittin' hair;
In the fancy shades of language we
are putin on no airs,
But we're shy one young reporter-it
was strange how it occurred
Who mussed up a brilliant future
when he chose jest one wrong
word.
He hustled local items for the Stock
mems Weekly Star;
He was young and plum ambitious,
and he made friends near and
far;
He never knocked nobody, but he allus
tried to boost,
And we thought he'd make a wonder
on the journalistic roost.
But he wrote, with goon intentions, as
most every one allows,
"Our townsman, Pecos Johnson, has
gone South to rustic cows;
He meant to say that Pecos was
a-rounin' up his brand,
For he didn't know that rustic"
meant to thieve in Cattle Land.
When Pecos Johnson read it he put on
an extry gun,
And he came to town a-frothin' with
his bronco on the run;
The reporter got warnin' and he hop
ped a cowboys beast
And he started navigatin' for the
calm and distant East.
We got old Pecos quiet when he'd
busted up the press.
And had shot holes in the sanctum
and had made the type a mess;
And we'd like bright reporter who is
broke to Western slang
No more such babes shall monkey
with our newspaper shebang-

Republican.

of his senses and then administer
treatment unhampered. In efficiency
engineering we meet two great difil'
culties: First, to convince the manage

require treatment, and secondly, wnen
convinced, to submit to the treatment.
Bu, they are usually forced to submit

Easter Holidays.

Editor The Missourian: Is it too
earl. to think of Easter holidays?
Every year this question comes up.
but up to date the University authori-
ties have done nothing officially. Con-
sequently, many students go home,
holidays or no holidays. They are
determined to have this mid-semester
vacation whether the University
grants it or not. Would it not be
better to provide for the holiday le-
gally-at least one of two or three
days. If the Friday before and the
Monday after Easter were made holi-
days, this would satisfy the students
1t would give quite long rest from
the routine of study.
There would be no danger Of taking

ing in regard to subtractipg credit

The pending commercial treaty is
approved by Canada. 1t provides the
free importation into this country of
practically all agricultural products.
And to balance this effect ION the
farmers of the United States, many
manufactured articles probably will be
included in the list of untaxed imports.
The Middle West is chiefly concerned
in the treaty, and it is proposed to
admit free not only those things which
the farmer sells, but also things which
he buys.
The geographical position of Canada
causes some to favor reciprocity who
would oppose it with other countries.
It is waste, they maintain, for Canada
to carry on its trade with European
countries when transfer of commodi-
ties with the United States is easier
and cheaper.
