'Care" Won Twelve ks"

To have played in Ill inter-school
games, to have been captain of five
Fort Hays Athletic teams, and to have
been awarded twelve official KS
during the four years Frank S. Carman
was a student in the Fort Hays,Kansas
Normal School, is the record which he
leaves behind him upon being gradual
ed, this commencement.
Before entering the Normal School
Carman was four years a member of
all the Athletic teams of the Hays High
School and a captain in each sport.
With this record Carman viii enter
the faculty of the High School to teach
in the Junior section and coach Ath-
letics. The School Board, Mr. Shively
and the people of Hays are looking for
ward to banner year in the sports.
Coach Speer of the Normal School
has said that he regrets very much to
lose such man as Carman from his
roster, but that to lose him by the
graduation route is an honor in itself.
Carman has played four years each
on the Normal Tiger football, basket
ball and baseball teams. He was cap
tain of football three times in 1912, 1913
and 1915. During the four years in
football he played in eighteen inter
school games. He was captain of bas-
ket ball in 1912 and during the four
years played IN fifty-two games for the
school. He was captain of baseball in
1914 and during the four years played
in forty-one games.
This year Carman won the silver
baseball trophy offered by the Athletic
: Association for the highest batting
average. He made 400. In High
School he also won the batting trophy.
A feature of Cares athletic record
everyone on the field and off calls him
"Care"-was tie large number of off
cial ttK's" awarded. They numbered
twelve-four in each sport in which he
was interested. There is a rumor per-
sistently circulated by certain of Car
mans friends that more of these ks"
adorn sofa pillows than sweaters.
Time after time on the local field or
in the gym, the spectators would hear
the opposing players warn each other
about Carman. Watch Carman, ,"
That's Carman," ETC., were familiar
phrases coming from the captains of in
yading teams
In baseball Care played at short
stop. His throw to first or home was a
pretty one and done with ease and pre-
cision. In basket ball Coach Speer
would play him at forward and then run
him down into the guard territory. By
these tactics the Tigers won several of
their games. In football Carman play
ed at quarter and half. Many time
the crowd would get up on its feet and
yell for Care to get the ball and
score. Last year the Tigers won three
games in the last few minutes of play
by the ability and coolheadedness of
Carman to flip forward pass to a
waiting end who would go over for the
touchdown that would win the game.

Reinforced concrete during the last
few years has been invading many
fields which hitherto have been con-
sidered as belonging exclusively 10
iron and steel One Of the interesting
Illustrations Of this fact Is the con-
struction Of g concrete buoy At King
ston, Jamaica
It Is stated that the cost Is only
about so per cent Of the cost Of 3
similar buoy made OF steel.
To prevent the mooring chain from
injurfng the bottom Of the buoy the
latter is made concave The manhOle
cover was grouted into its place after
the buoy was ahoat. Leakage Is han

In the DAYS of Youth.

"ChiIdren's affairs become important
the moment an adult discusses them
in their presence. Questions Of lying,
deceit, morality, self-defense and the
like should never be taken up in adj
vance of the need. The Boston woman
who told her children never to put
beans in their ears which they
promptly did, is sure to understand
me. Experimental lies start in this
way, and gain great Roadway, for the
parent who anticipates them is always
on the lookout and is generally re-
warded. "-Exchange

REPRODUCTION IS. MADE EASY
Perfect Copies of Masterpieces Of
Sculpture Secured With the Aid
of the Camera.

a new optical method for making
reproductions Of sculptures consists in
Photographing the object from two or
mere points of view and then, with
the cameras and lines OF sight in ex-
CCtly the same relative positions, pro-
jecting the images to an intersection
N the modelling clay or block Of mar
bic from which the reproduction is to
be made. While somewhat crude in
its present state, this process, says
Popular Mechanics. is one that ap-
parently has great possibilities for fu-
ture development In making the re-
production the worker simply cuts
away the material at any point until
the corresponding points as projected
from the different cameras coincide
On the surface. As most sculptural OBJ
jects do not have points that are suf-
fciently prominent for their coinci-
Gence to be determined with precision,
It is proposed to use an additional ap-
paratus for projecting a series of fine
lines and letters on the object while
it is being photographed. These lines
and letters, of course, appear on the
negative made by each Of the cameras
and are projected with the image IN
this way the worker obtains a set OF
artificial points that are sharp and
definite, and the coincidence Of these
IS easily determined.

According to Plutarch the ancient
Romans would not extinguish q candle,
