Wireless Amateurs, Messane

1t was a very pretty thing that the
amateur wireless operators of the
country did on the night before Wash
ington's birthday. At midnight the
hundreds of boys who make up that
army sat waiting for a message from
Davenport, Ia. When it came, every.
one within hearing repeated it, and
each boy who received it relayed il
eastward in his turn, until it reached
the operators of the Harvard Wireless
club. They delivered it to a delega,
ton of boy scouts, one of whom read
it aloud from the platform of the
town hall in Lexington. The message
was this: "A democracy requires thai
a people who govern and educate
themselves should be so armed and
disciplined that they can protect them

FOE OF H

OF all the foes of young manhood
on the American college campus. al
cohol is the most subtle and destruc-
tive. 1t is peculiarly fitting that the
American college student of today,
wiser and better informed than his
predecessors, should give battle to his
ancient and merciless adversary. If
graVestones were placed on our col
lege grounds to those slain in the flush
OF young manhood by intoxicating
drink, the acres of verdant lawn
around even Dur best institutions
would become vast cemeteries CHASTITY
with thick-strewn h~eadstones. With a
devilish instinct for maximum destruc-
~tiveness, this demon of the campus
seems to pick out for degradation the
gayest, the loveliest, the most talent
ed, and to reinforce his assault by en-
listing the social and generous in
stincts which constitute the very
charm OF youth. Opening always the
gate to passion and appetite, he is the
aggressive ally of everything which
degrades college life, the promoter of
tragedies innumerable on every cam
pus. the tireless enemy of virtue, u
ity, diligence and intellectual develop
ment.-Henry Louis Smith, President
Washington and Lee University.

LITTLE GEORGE" OLIVER

Senator George T. Oliver of Penn

mere lad and was reared by an older
brother and his wife. The latter was
only about eight years older than
George, but she came to regard him
as a son. She always referred to him
as Little George" and this continued
long after Little George" had reached
manhood. Even after he was married
she felt as if she ought to see that his
face and hands were clean.
In 1900, after the congressional re-
apportionment. Oliver was prominent
ly mentioned for congressman-at-large.
His brother went home one day in
high spirits over the prospects of a

SCIENTIFIC INSTRUCTION.

SNiEN ms THOCTiON.
In 1897 two leading professors of
Germany sent to the men of that coun-
try a pronouncement favoring total alb
stinence. 1t contained this declara-
ton:
Science has shown that alcohol,
even in moderate quantities, causes
disturbance in brain action, paralyzes
the critical capacity, power If will, the
ethical and esthetic sense, and lowers
~self-control. For this reason We
should realize that it is a poison and
no longer to be classed with foods"
The document received nine sigma
lures. Ten years later it was sent out
again and received 800 signatures OF
German medical men, lie of whom
were professors.
In 1913 a great antialcoholic meeting
was held in the Prussian house of dep
uties, Berlin. The honorary president
was the German chancellor, DR.. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg, and on the commit
tee OF honor all the Prussian ministers
We're represented and hundreds of EN-.
inent men of the empire. Doctor Jen-
SEN, inspector general of the Berlin
schools, called forth much applause
when he said that "the education of
youth is absolutely impossible with
out an antialcohol element in it,"
Since then such instruction has been
made a part of the regular course in
the public schools of Germany, and
entire courses in that subject are Of

Ohio. The speaker said that West vir-

puted this statement. He said that
he was a salesman, that he visited
every county seat in West Virginia,
and that his business had fallen off
considerably since the state went dry.
Another man spoke up and said that
he was a salesman and made" West
Virginia regularly and that his bust
ness had increased since the state be-
came dry. He asked the fellow who
reported a falling off what his line
was and the latter reluctantly admit
ted that he sold undertakers supplies,
at which the crowd yelled. The man
who declared that prohibition had
helped his business explained he sold
furniture.
