The Claron-Ledger revives a mer-
itorious subject for legislation. See
clipping in reprint column. The
Herald has sometime since placed
itself on record as endorsing the
movement towards securing legal
registration of Vital Statistics. AS
a newspaper we struggle to register
all the births, deaths and marriages,
occurring in our county, but only
through the mechanism of the law
can sufficient facilities be unlimbere
to accurate tab such important
events to the current history of a
state. We sincerely trust that the
newspapers all over the state will
follow the able lead at this time of
the staid old Gil and pump away SO
hard for this measure that it will
crystalize INTO law at the present
session Of the legislature.

PROFESSORS DUTIES ARE MANY
II. Wade Hibbard EnumerateS 200
Things q Teacher Must Do.

THE high priced presidents of
great corporations would not attempt
to perform SO great variety of du-
ties as the college professor does" is
the belief of H. Wade Hubbard, pro-
fessor of Mechanical Engineering at
the University of Missouri, as stated
in his lecture on Operating Engi-
neering Schools under Scientific Man
agement." delivered at the meeting of
the Scientific Association Saturday
night Mr. Hubbard then enumerated
more than 200 different things which
the college professor of today is sup
posed to do.
The necessity of organization is
clearly shown by the fact that the
duties have to be divided up among
many trained men. all working to-
gether. according to Mr. Hubbard.
Scientific management requires"
he says. "a clear separation of the
functions of all the men working,
adequate supervision, team work. a
complete analysis of all the equip
ment and organization and the build
ing up of an advisory staff to have
control"
Mr. Hubbard is against one man or
committee management of a school.
"One man management burdens the
man with too many functions: COM
mittee control leaves business in such
shape that it has to be thrashed
over again." he says. He advocates
the establishment in the school of a
staff. in which each man has func-
ton of his own, separate from the
other members. BY this method a
better efficiency is gained.
Mr. Hubbard suggests an advisory
board for presidents of the universe
ties which may be composed of pro-
fessOrs or administrative officers.
They will act in an advisory capacity
to the president in practically all
phases of university work.
The speech in full will be printed
in the report of the Society for the
Promotion of Engineering Education
next month.

SHORT COURSE BULLETINS OUT
Classes for Women This Year for
First Time.

The bulletin announcing the short
courses to be given this winter in the
College of Agriculture is out. and
copies were mailed yesterday. 1t is
a booklet of fifty-two pages. The
bulletin is illustrated with photo
graphs of the agricultural buildings.
equipment and stock Among the
many course offered are the winter
course in agriculture, the short
course. The course for women and
dairying and the special poultry
course. The cource for women and
the poultry course are new features
offered this year for the first time.
The courses, according to the bull
letin. are for practical farmers and
are especially arranged to meet the
needs of the man who wants to farm
on a business basis-make money,
live comfortably and be worker for
his community.
The department of agriculture
hopes that the courses for women
will meet a popular demand. Work
is given in those subjects with which
woman as a home maker should be
Interested She learns how to have
materials. time and labor. She is
taught why certain things and GER
tain methods are better than others.
Studies in the planning and prep
aration of food will give general
knowledge of what we should eat,
and an idea of the comparative value
of different food-stuffs. The studies
will aim to bring out the close rela-
ton that exists between disease and
such simple factors as fresh air, care
of the body and furnishing the home.
For these courses no entrance eX-
aminations are required. An earnest
and sincere purpose is considered
above other prerequisites.
