UNIVERSITY
SCHOLARSHIPS

Inc county OcnOlafSnlpS lOf
the University of Arizona, voted
by the Legislature at the 1912
session, have been a great boom
to students who used them. Seve-
: eral students at the University
could not have entered the in
sitution without this financial
help. The scholarship means $3.50.
to apply on all kinds of fees at
the University.
During the past year scholar
ships have been held by the fol
lowing students and everyone of
these students has been a credit
to the University and to himself.

The County School Superinten-
dents will open examination in
each county June 18th, and every
high school graduate interested
to come to the University and un-
able to attend without financial
help should compete for the ex-
aminations are moderate and
ought to be met easily by any
we'll prepared student.
One of the students who had
the scholarship during the past
year and was fully earning his
way at the University was gen
erous enough to give nearly one
half the amount of his scholar
ship to another student from the
same town to help him along with
his work.
Several of the scholarship
students have been earning their
way at the University: Miss Pois-
er of Douglas was clerk of the
Registrar and posted the records
of students "a very responsible
task; Alma Sessions of Thatcher
was the University electrician,
was called upon frequently day
and evening to make electrical
repairs; Ralph Dell of Prescott,
was ready at all times for any
kind of work that would help him
earn little money; John W. Get
singer of Phoenix, earned money
on the side by tutoring; John c.
Smith of Globe carried his class
work well and showed some of
his artistic ability in submitting
to the Board of Regents of the
University designs for the new
University seal; Allan c. Jones
of Clifton was one of the strong
members of the baseball club.
Nothing that the state has done
for the University, and for the
amount given, has been of more
practical value to the students.
The University would be glad if
the scholarships could be award
ed not only to the counties as
such, but also to every high school
in the state; Maricopa Co. for
example, has several high schools
at Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa and
Glendale and everyone of these
would present worthy candidates.

EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM GOOD
CHANCELLOR OF STATE UNIvER-
SITY PLEASED WITH RESULTS.
University Makes Splendid Record.
Completion of Peabody Hall Will
Afford Accommodation for
Girl Students.

Jackson.-That Mississippi's educa-
tional system is one of which that state
may justly feel proud was the declara-
ton of A. A. Kincannon, chancellor OF
the University of Mississippi, Oxford.
Mr.. Kincannon said that the system
was almost perfect in theory and excel
lent in fact.
The, blending of the agricultural edu-
cation with the usual studies in the
country districts and the work of the
agricultural high schools has accom-
plished much good, said the well known
educator.
cat the university we do not teach
agriculture" he continued. There we
impart Knowledge in only the higher
studies. But the education in the ele-
mentary branches and especially in
agriculture is we'll cared for in other
institutions"
Mr.. Kincannon praised the work being
done at the Agricultural and Mechanical
College at Starkviile. That Institution
has accomplished wonders, he said.
The chancellor is much pleased with
the record made at the university during
the term just closed. eve have over
400 pupils and during the term not one
was sent away for misconduct. The stu
dents have worked hard and results have
been ideaL'
Peabody Hall, the new annex to the
university, is rapidly nearing compile
ton. When this building is finished the
university will encourage the attendance
of female students. While young women
have been received at the university IN
the past, still they have not been .encour-
aged to attend as there was but little
accommodation for them.

ACTS NOT RETROACTIVE.
In Effect Jan. /, 1913, and Do Not Ap-
ply to 1912 Business.

Jackson.-Auditor Thompson sub
mitted to Attorney General Collins an
interrogatory the purport of which was
to obtain an official opinion as to when
several of the revenue acts of the legis-
lature of 1912 became of effect. The
specific acts forming the basis of the
inquiry are: Chapter To-, levyving a
tax on income; chapter ITO, privilege
tax on the extraction of turpentine;
chapter Ill, placing a tax on creosoting
plants; chapter 112, 20-cent an acre tax
on timber land holdings; chapter lib,
privilege tax on freight line companies,
and chapter LA, on car equipment COM
panies.
1t is pointed out by the auditor that
these acts were passed and approved
March Is, 1912, and that therefore he
was in a quandary whether the pro-
visions apply to the business of the year
1912 or to this year.
Attorney General Collins will prob
ably hold that the taxation on these
concerns could not have applied to last
year, since the acts were passed subse-
quent to the beginning of the taxation
year and are not deemed to be retro
active.

In Dangerous Pursuits.

A commission of scientists has re-
ported Professionally and issued a
chart of instruction directing the best
methods of resuscitating persons who
have been shocked by electric cur
rents This chart is printed on heavy
cardboard, to be used in all power
houses and other places where acct
dents of this kind are likely to hap
pen.
The work of this commission has
proved 80 valuable that DR.. A. j
Holmes, director of the bureau OF
mines of the federal department OF
the interior, has engaged the members
of the commission to serve on a com
mission for the study OF mine gases
and of means for protection against
the frequent accidents which destroy
lives in the mines OF the country
These deaths are often appalling by
reason OF their obscurity and sudden
ness.

Suppose you were getting SIS a
week, and that at the end of a year
your employer presented you with
bonus of $3.50 This was continued for
two or three years, until you became
reasonably certain that in the event
of protracted. faithful service you
would be amply rewarded.
Then, supposing your employer In
creased your salary to $50 a week. but
that he discontinued the bonus. On
which basis would you prefer to be
paid?
This is a problem for employees to
figure out, but one Chicago manufac-
turer believes he has solved the rid

This manufacturer does not reward

Those on whom he confers this honor
are probably worthy of larger sal

larger straight away salary just as
well as to make it up to them at the
end of a year. None of them can
safely count on the bonus. but 1t Is
with that in view that they give their

Jackson.-Dr. r. S. Curry, superin
tendent of the Mississippi Institution for
the Blind, has launched plan for the
establishment of home for the blind,
where graduates of the institution, and
other deserving blind persons, can go
cure regular employment at trades that
viii enable them to earn livelihood.
Letters were recently sent out over
the state appealing for help in estab-
fishing this home, and number of en-
couraging replies have been received.
we teach our pupils useful trades at
the institution says DIR. Curry, ~but
when they leave us many of them are
unable to find lucrative employment.
They go back into the world almost
helpless, and as remedy for this we
ought to provide home where they can
be carefully provided for, and at the
same time it can be operated on a self
sustaining basis, or, doubtless, at goo
profit for those employed"
