bert Wiener. called "Harvards most
wonderful boy" is today, at the age of
eighteen, preparing to receive the de-
gree of doctor of philosophy. which will
make him the youngest Ph.D. in Amer

An amazing statement from the elder
Wiener, a professor at Harvard, was
his declaration that he could take al
most any boy and develop him to a
similar degree.
My son is in no way a prodigy" SAID
Mr.. Wiener. He is simply developed

rapid development of young Wiener:
At the age of eighteen months he
knew the alphabet.
At three years he could read and
write we'll.
At six he had mastered arithmetic.
At eight he could read Latin, French,
German and Russian, and was thorough
in plane and solid geometry.
At nine he was proficient in higher
mathematics, solving problems in cal.
cuus with ease.
At ten he began studying chemistry.
At eleven he entered Tufts college.
At twelve he was competent chem
ist.
At fourteen he received the degree Of
master of arts.
What kind of a career have you
mapped out for your son ?" Professor
| Wiener was asked.
ITO what use he will put all his
| knowledge l do not know" said Pro-
| fessor Wiener. He has not begun to
| specialize as yet and l shall not inter
| fere in the choice of his career"
| When an Intellectual attempt to in
terview young Wiener was made. The
Georgian correspondent found him
busy on his thesis, The Algebra Of
| Logic" Those who have seen what
he has done say It will be one of the
most wonderful literary productions
ever presented to those who will pass
upon it.

Keep the Heart Young,

Known U. D. G. Leader.

'Dearie me. but I really don't think
that I am growing old gracefully" said
Mrs. c. Helen Plane. honorary presi-
dent of the L. D. c.. to a Georgian
reporter today, who asked her just how
she had attained the age of 81 and
still pursued a life of activity and
charm
u have just passed my saith birth
day, but l feel as We're only 40, You
see, the whole secret is in keeping the
heart young; in thinking good thoughts,
and living not so much in the past as
in the generation now reaching ma
turity.
Il have lived to see three different
generations of children grow up, and
in that time I have learned that the
secret of keeping young is to enter
into their pastimes and their pleasures
in living their life with them.
'Verv frequently l read in the paper
something about a person 65 or 10
years old. and almost involuntarily l
say, Poor creature forgetting that ]

ison of Alabama. and is as staunch a

federate relics were given a place in

GROUNDS ALL DAY.
GROWTH OF THE INSTITUTION
President Bizzell Tells Of Increased
Enrolment, New Building and
Added Courses.

What would the Dallas Fair mean
to A. and M. unless C. /. A. were there
also? Certainly it is, that the girls
from the College of Industrial Arts
are one of the greatest, II. not the
greatest, single attraction for the boys
from the Farmer school.
As soon as arms were stacked. each
cadet Immediately began a search for
his SISTER" or cousin" in the ranks
of the C. /. A. contingent, which had
marched into the grounds just after
the followers of Man.
From then until $3.50 at night, with
the exception of parade time the stu
dents from the two schools were In
discriminatory intermingled. On every
side, at every turn, in all corners OF
the grounds, there was the blue and
the gray.
The one regret of the occasion was
that the c. I. A. girls were unable to
give their college yells and songs, ow'
ing to the fact that no section in the
grandstand was reserved for them.
Many were the regrets expressed
over the earllness of the hour at
which our sisters from the College OF
Industrial Arts had to depart. No few
exchanges of college fun, yells, books,
arm-bands, caps, ETC., were made to
say nothing of the promises and as
surances which belong to the realm
of cupid.
The college girls from the School of
Industrial Arts numbered approx
mately $50 and thirty faculty members
accompanied the girls. Among the fac
ulty was Dean A. l.. Banks and Presi-
dent Bizzell, who tells of the increased
enrolment which Is now over $50,
about 125 larger than last year. He
also speaks of the new buildings and
added course. For the first time the
colleges will grant degree for grad
uate work in domestic art, domestic
science, applied art or literary
courses.---The Battalion.

THE Banner-Press is not an
alarmist. In fact, 1t Is anything
but an alarmist, but there are
some things to which 1t occas-

cause il believes the things
