A SUITABLE APPOINTMENT.

If the gossip of New York and Wash
ington correspondents is to be relied
upon, the appointment of Goethals as
governor of the Canal Zone was made
by the president with great reluctance
and only after public protests against
the threatened sighting of this great
engineer had become too great to be
resisted. 1t is rumored that a favorite
of Secretary Bryan's was to have had
the place and was only refused it when
the American people demanded that
the remarkable Goethals should have
a chance to finish his work if he cared
to.
Certainly it is cause for congratula-
ton that the man who has achieved
such wonderful results in the great
task of building the canal is willing
to continue the labors necessary to the
completion of his undertaking instead
of seeking that change of occupation
which would have made him richer
and less driven official. 1t is incon-
ceivable that any man could be found
better fitted for the place or more en-
titled to hold it.
However tardy may have been
the recognition of the politicians,
that of the people at large is i'm
mediate and enthusiastic.

WATCH STUDENTS HEALTH
Cornell Has Official Medical Advisers
on Duty Each Day.

Cornell University has official medi-
cal advisers for its students III Ithaca,
N. Y, says the New York Times.
Professor T.. F. Crane, who was act
ing president OF the university during
| the absence of President Jacob Gould
Schurman as United States minister to
Greece, explains the work of the medi-
cal adviser and his assistant thus:
"The theory upon which this work is
carried on at Cornell is that the same
should be done for the students as the
parent or guardian would do were he
at home, and that the university should
not assume the responsibility of giving
more treatment than is usually under
taken by a father or mother. Such
cases. therefore, have been referred to
a physician as would have been sent to
a family doctor by parent.
The medical advisers are in their
Office from s o'clock in the morning to a
quarter after ! o'clock in the afternoon
and from to o'clock every day, eX
cept from Easter to the end of the col
lege year, when the office is closed on
Saturday afternoon. The office is also
open Sunday mornings from 8 o'clock
to II o'clock During this time the ex-
aminers combine medical and physical
denominations of ctulantc with noncuI
tations in regard to personal hygiene
and care of their health, advice in re-
gard to minor ailments and the treat
ing of some cases.
Occasionally the medical advisers
perform minor surgical operations
such as opening boils or caring for
corns. They make emergency dressings
for all accidents and emergencies
which occur around the gymnasium
and upon the campus. They plan, how
ever, to send all serious cases to some
physician selected by the patient. They
are glad always to consult the attend
ing physicians in any case, and in adj
dition to regular hours frequently see
patients at other times in consultation
or for special examination.
''All the students are urged to notify

WRESTLING PROSPECTS BRIGHT
Oregon and Idaho to Enter Teams in
Big Conference Meet for the
First Time.

This is the way the 0. A. c. Barome-
ter puts it. There are many students
here who wish that such would be the
case. Yet from what we know, Idaho
has no wrestling team. She should
have. Maybe we have. Here is what
the Barometer says:
Every day in the week numerous
men may be seen working out on the
wrestling mats iii the balcony of the
gymnasium. Old Varsity wrestlers
and new men are busy shaping them
selves for the coming season. The
first meet will be an interclass con-
test about the latter part of February.
Coach Arbuthnot has had his trained
eye on the new men for the past
month and is very optimistic as to
the prospects for a successful season.

THE BEST FORM OF PUBLIC IN

The prospect for an extensive paving
program for next spring as outlined
by the public improvements commit
tee of the chamber of commerce is at
tractive to all those citizens who are
oughly modern, up-to-date city at the
least possible cost to the taxpayer.
The most unobservant of persons must
recognize that during the past two
or three years Moscow has changed
for the better in many ways and to
an almost incredible extent. Paving,
modern street lighting, better houses,
new firms, greater enterprise among
the older firms, pride in the appear
ance of public and private property,
the successful management OF great
county fair, all these and many more
activities and interests indicate the
splendid spirit of progressiveness
which animates the people who make
up our town.
Among the many means that may
be employed to improve conditions in
a city and make it a better place i'll
which to live, none can equal i'll Ell
feet the paving of streets in business
and residence districts. 1t adds to the
comfort and convenience of all persons
and contributes UNNECESSARILY to the
metropolitan aspect and the good rep
utation of any community far-sighted
enough to invest its money in that
kind of Improvement.

few days ago that the present Congress

"Iuasmuch as Americans own IS per

The last census gives the American
