Beauty and idaalism may well go

session of the annual convention of

neers here today. c. d. Marx, presi-
dent of the society and professor OF

ut is encouraging to note that this
need was recognized by our own gov
ernment in connection with the struc-
lures of the Panama canal.
The man who said engineering was
destructive OF idealism has made little
study of the close association between
religion and engineering in the past
and in the present"

tribute to Herbert C. Hoover. American

District Supreme Court to sell an au-

Farmer, uses exclusively, she says, and
refused to permit her to enjoy, al
though she contributed $157.34 toward

to take the machine, sell it and return
to the wife the proportionate share of
the purchase price.

10, 1912, but separated last March. The
wife tells the court that in June last
her husband owned a two-passenger
car and agreed with her to buy five

+! trees, great big old apple trees with
| spreading branches, quite unlike any trees
Buster ever had seen before. At each
tree he stood up very straight and tall
and shifted very carefully all around 1t
hoping to smell honey. One tree he
climbed just to see what it was likes
1t happened to be the tree in which
Chatterer the Red Squirrel lived in the
old home of Drummer the Woodpecker.
At the time Chatterer was fast asleep.
OF course. All sensible squirrels except
Timmy the Flying Squirrel were asleep
at that hour. Chatterer was dreaming
and his dreams were very pleasant. He
was dreaming that Buster Bear had
called him the smartest of oil the little
people in the Green Forest and had prom
ised to be his friend forever and ever.
Just then Chatterer was awakened by a
terrible noise. 1t seemed as if his house
was being torn to peices.
"Oh, dear. Oh. dear! What can it
be?' gasped Chatterer under his breath,
and lay with chattering teeth as he
listened to the dreadful sounds. OF course
you have guessed what the dreadful
noise was. 1t was the sound of Buster
it wasn't until the next morning that
Chatterer found this out. You see, he
didn't dare go out in the dark, so for the
rest of that night he had bad dreams
when he slept and shook with fear when
he was awake. 1t seemed to him as If
morning never would come.
Meanwhile Buster Bear had gone on
from tree to tree until he had visited
every tree in the Old Orchard and not
one whiff of honey had tickled his eager
nose. At last he visited every tree in
the Old Orchard nearest to Farmer
Browns house. For a long time he
stood staring at it. He never before had
seen the house of a man save very far
away. Now Buster has his share of curf-
oslly. He is just like other people in
this respect. 1t was dark and very still.
He watched and listened. All was still
as still could be. He wanted a nearer
view of that house. Perhaps he never
would have another such chance. So he

Buster found the honey. how do you suppose?
BY simply using common sense and following his
nose.
Yes, Buster found the honey, but he
didn't find it right away, and he didn't
find it where he expected to- But that
is often the way. Life wouldn't be half
so interesting if everything came out
just as expected. 1t is the unexpected
that makes things really interesting.
Buster Bear went from tree to tree
in the Old Orchard taking the greatest
care to make no sound. If you had been
within ten feet of him you couldn't have
seen him. That is because the night was
so dark and Buster has such black
coat. In fact. it was all that Peter
Rabbit could do to see him, and you
know Peter can see better in the dark
than you can or I can. Those trees
