and leave much-needed space in the
Administration Building for the use
of other departments. The devotion
of the present engineering buildings
TO workshop purposes only, and the
provision of new, roomy quarters for
offices, class rooms and laboratories,
should make our engineering depart
ment take a higher place among the
other western colleges.
Science Hall has long provided in
sufficient room for the needs of the
departm ents housed within it. The
expansion of the college work in ag-
riculture and horticulture, and the
phenomenal growth of the college ex-
tension work, has made the necessity
for new quarters a crying one. The
extension work alone would almost
justify the erection of a new building.
The work of farmers Institutes, de-
monstration boats and trains, and
winter schools, is increasing to a
marvellous extent. The winter schools
alone now number seven. They are
in session at Pullman, Puyallup, Lyn-
den, Vancouver, Waterville, and
other points.
The erection of these new build
ings, with the increased facilities
for work which they offer, should
mean the beginning of new epoch
for w. S. c. With every depart
ment housed in commodious quart
ers, with ample room for lectures,
classes and experimental work, with
the new dignity and prestige which
will attach to our college when fully
equipped for it's great work, we
should seem to be upon the threshold
of the greatest broadening out in the
history of the college. New students
should be attracted in greater num-
bers than ever before. Instructors
should be better content to remain
in the college; in short, the whole in
stitution would be at once enlarged
and rendered more stable.
President Bryan deserves great
credit for his work in persuading the
legislative committees of the need of
the new buildings, which is in line
with the great constructive work
which he has done for the college.
If the student body will but live up
to the high privileges which the
states bounty has conferred upon
every member of the college, Wash
ington State College will take a more
prominent position in the general
opinion of the people of the country.

A Tribute to Thorpe

In a strong sermon dealing with
the professionalism of Jim Thorpe
the noted Indian athlete, Rev. c. II.
Harrison of the Congregational
church last Sunday evening. quoted
the statement OF Coach Stage of Chi
cago that THE present amateur
rules make liars out of athletes"
and further condemned the policy
of the collegiate rules committee
which prevents a college man who
wishes to play baseball from the love
of the sport from participating in the
national pastime unless he loses his
amateur standing.
Rev. Harrisons sermon was not
primarily concerned with the ques-
ton of professionalism, however,
but more directly with a contrast of
the manliness of Thorpe in admit
ting that he had played summer
baseball, thereby losing the two
greatest trophies that is is possible
for any athlete to win-an admis-
sion that might we'll have remained
unsaid had Thorpe wished to prac-
tice the deception. This sincere
and manly action was contrasted
with that of Justice Archibald, late
of the Commerce Court. when. after
being Overwhelmingly indicted by the
Senate of the United States on the
charges of fraud and other criminal
practices, he stated that he had
done no wrong."s II want to say"
said Rev. Harrison. that | would
be proud to grasp the hand of a man
like Thorpe, who, although he Is
only an Indian, is at the bottom
much more of man than is Archi-
bald, with all his education, bril-
liancy and high position"
