OUR OPPORTUNITIES.

ent varieties and to lurk in many dis
guises. The young man has mental
picture of opportunity as something
big-something magnified, as CON-
pared to every day experiences
something out of the ordinary, with
a large sum of wealth at the other
end.
But is this mental picture really OPP
portunity; Isn't it youths dream?
More the result of an ambitious de-
sire than anything pertaining to the
opportunities of the world. AS mat
ter or fact, do we not overlook op-
portunities every day? Isn't an op-

regardless, whether it is large or
small? And isn't the magnitude OF
the opportunity largely measured by
the amount of enthusiasm and good

instructors are bothered by students
getting to their classes late. The in
structors are not always on time. In
Russia there used to be custom on
the stage coach roads that all who got
to the station on leaving time were
counted first class passengers, those
who were late FIVE minutes were sec
ond class and those who were ten
minutes late, when the coach started,
were the third class passengers. When
the coach got to a hill the driver
yelled out for first class passengers to
keep their seats, for second class to
get off and walk and for third class
to get off and push. An instructor in
a Southern university used to tell that
story to his third class students after
he got through asking them all the
questions at the end of the hour. He
was never late himself and no stu
dent was late more than once. It
might help the sale of alarm clocks
il such methods were used here. Some
students say that not much is lost
when you can get your neighbor's
notes, but how about those who are
hindered in taking notes by some one
banging the door, giggling in the hall
or walking their Importance across
the room. Student.

FRIDAY, March 10. 1sl5)
THE BUFORD BILL.

The Buford Bill, which provides for
installing in the School OF Mines and
Metallurgy at Rolla engineering
courses now being given in Columbia,
is but phase of the controversy. old
in many states, over the duplication
of courses and equipment in the high
er institutions of learaing. Often it
has been in the form of an agricul-
tural and mechanical college, sepa-
rate from the state university.
There are today perhaps four or
five state universities recognized as
among the foremost of universities.
Certain it is that in any such list there
would be included the universities of
Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota and
Illinois. Michigan has an agricul-
tural college separated from the uni
versity, and Wisconsin has small
school of mines separated from the
university. With these exceptions all
the higher educational interests of the
four states are centered in the state
university. In none of these states,
however, is there a duplication of
courses. The larger material sup
port made possible by this concentra-
ton of effort has enabled these univer-
stiles to take the lead.
Farther west there is another uni
versity with a similar experience that
may be valuable, If its standing well
up among the greater institutions of
learning counts for anything. That is
the University of California. OF course
all these universities are in rich and
populous states, but not little of
their success has been due to this
unity of educational effort.
Through this same policy of no dup
lication in the state, the University
of Missouri has been able to tSke
place well up in the ranks of these
universities. Surely the state is not
going to weaken its already strong
position by adopting this policy of dup
lication now. The installing of these
courses at Rolla might be the opening
wedge for a further harmful division
of our now advanced and concentrated
educational system.

RECESS WORK OF CONGRESS.

The sixty-third Congress was busy
one. In the final rush of business
many important acts of legislation
failed to be considered. The filibus-
tering on the Ship Purchase Bill took
time away from the consideration of
such bills as the Indian Supply Bill,
Rural Credits Bill and the bill to pro-
hibit interstate commerce in goods
manufactured by child labor But
before Congress was adjourned COM
mittees were appointed to make GER
tain inquiries during the recess.
Committees were appointed to make
inquiry into alleged lobbying in con-
nection with the ship purchase, and
to study rural credits legislation.
When many needful bills were de-
prived of hearing before Congress,
members of the Senate realized that
the waste of time in filibustering was
responsible. Accordingly "a special
committee was appointed to recon-
mend the revision of the rules of the
Senate, with a view of establishing a
limited time for debate to prevent fill
clustering.

They were credit to the state and to

weaken them. A few years ago a
great educator was offered the presi-
dency of the University of Montana.
He refused to accept because of a
division of her schools. The Univer-

when not in use and how we put them
OH we will not wonder why it is they
quickly lose their neat and clean ap-
pearance.
When fastening a glove always fas-
ten the second button first, thus remov-
ing the strain from the wrist and the
button. Never remove them by pulling
at the fingers, but turn them wrong
side out from the wrist and allow them
to remain so until thoroughly dry from
Precipitation of the hands; then turn
them again. Do not roll them up into
a ball, but carefully spread them out
fat and draw the fingers into shape.
By being careful in these little things
one naturally expends the same degree
of care in the more important articles.
