BOOK REVIEWS


There is something indefinabIy diff.
ferent in college life which distin-
guishes it from other forms of life. No
one has ever been able to define it.
To understand it one has to live it.
Lotto Griswold has told a story of
college life so well that those who have
never had an opportunity to live it
themselves. may live it with him in
"Deering at Princeton" The author
has written a story such as only one
who is intimately associated with
college life can. 1t is not the story
of hero. but of the ordinary college
man. CThe Macmillan Company. New
York: Illustrated; price. $3.50.

CONNICTS AND GOOD ROADS,

is E"w up to the board of prison
u. ? c'ors of Missouri TO say whether
-1n0,rts are to be used on the state
ads. \ law passed by the last Cen
eral Assembly permits the use of a
limited number of the convicts in state
road building.
If the convict can be successfully
utilized as a road builder in other
states, why not Missouri? Several
states long ago adopted the plan and
1t has worked admirably. Early this
year thirteen other states passed laws
permitting the practice.
In Iowa the board of control of
state institutions, with the advice of
the warden of any penal institution,
may permit able-bodied male prison
ers to work on the roads. The law
specifically provides that the states
prisoners shall not be leased to con-
tractors.
Under this plan the prisoners are
under the jurisdiction of the warden
while building or repairing roads. but
their work is supervised by the state
highway commissioner. Prisoners thus
employed receive such part of their
earnings, above the cost of their keep,
as the board deems equitable. These
earnings are either funded or given to
their dependent families.
This plan would be decided i'm
provement over the present system in
Missouri, for besides affording plenty
of fresh air and heathful exercise for
the states prisoners, the work would
be source of income TO them or to
the families dependent upon them.
At the same time the direct benefits
from their labor would go to the state
through the better roads instead of
forming merely source of income
for the contractor.

PRESERVING THE FORESTS.

In Missouri, like in all other states
a wantOn extravaganza has character
lied the cutting away of the forests.
The large tracts of timber which once
fringed our streams and covered the
uplands are fading away before the
advance OF the modern agricultur-
ist. Unless something is done to check
the yeariy inrOads into our forest
reserves we are to face a real timber
shortage
The proposal OF the National Con-
ServatiOn Congress recently that the
University of Missouri lead the way
In forest conservation i'm this state. is
a good one. The University's large
holdings OF timber land and the course
in forestry it offers should make il
possible for the University to distrib-
ute knowledge of the nature and needs
OF our forest lands and TO develop a
system of forestry which shall serve
"a 4 model.
In the Inauguration of such prac-
tical conservation program the Uni
ycrsity will render distinct service
by arousing the il crest of people
throughout the state q the preserva-
ton of Miss -Giis most valuable re-
source.
