Professor Egbert Sees Business
Benefit in Helping Train Col
legians-Offers Support.

Columbia University will cooperate
with tho National City Bank in its
plan to give college men an opportunity
20 study foreign exchange and banking
during their summer vacations and
their senior year. Dr. Butler approves
the plan and said yesterday the new
Columbia School Of Business would
keep in close touch with the bank off,
cisls in charge Of the undertaking.
Professor James {. Egbert. di- ector
Of the school, urged that other large
corporations. banks and business houses
adopt similar measures. II IL possible
the time Columbia students spend at
the bank during vacations will be cred
/ tied at the School OF Business as lab
ors,ory study.
"The plan outlined by the National
City Bank is comprehensive, and de-
serves the support OF the colleges
throughout the country" said Professor
Fcbert. II believe similar institutions
would accomplish wonderful results
not only Cor themselves. but for the
country. if they opened their doors 20
college men and gave them the oppor-
,unity Of what may be termed lab

banking.

He claims that If the Lusitania notes

that the correspondence IL now APP

that partial protection which Is desir-

he had no moral right and no political
justification as an eN-Secrctary OF

Again. the difference between Mr..
Roots action and Mr. Roots words

own tools and supplies, bought her own
horses, kept her own books, and wrote her

When Emma A. Summers borrowed
that first 500 she believed that when she
could write her name to check for ten
thousand dollars and know it was good,
she would quit business and content her
self with the ordinary woman's life. But
by the time she was supplying gas COM

III. He Has Killed 1000 Hawks
ITO rid the world of 1000 chicken
hawks in single lifetime is going
some. That is the present tally Of Will
liam H. Osmun, of Pontiac, Michigan.
Mr.. Osmun, who is now more than seventy
years old, is still an expert marksman, and
claims the world record for killing hawks
The accompanying picture shows the re-
suit of one days shooting eleven hawks
His plan is this: the hunter carries his
pet owl-one that has been taken from q
nest when young and reared in captivity
in basket to likely hawk hunting
ground. The bird is set up on stump or
stake in clearing, and the hunter hides
near by. Presently from afar the owl is
spotted by his enemy, the crow. The crow
will fly to the scene and begin solo of cav
ing, which attracts Others of its species.
Attracted by the commotion of the
crows, hawk will soon appear. He is

II. A Recipe for Making Millions

TWENTY years ago Emma A. Summers
was music teacher. To-day she is
a more than one-time millionaire. And
she didn't fall heir to it, either By work
and by worry she made it.
In those days when she taught music
Los Angeles was small village with few
pianos, and the little girls came to her
house to practise. When there were
more than enough pupils for one piano
she bought another piano and another,
until she had seven.
Then oil was discovered in Los Angeles.
BY that time Emma A. Summers had
saved 500 from her teaching, and she
borrowed 500 and decided to sink well.
Before she knew it, her oil-well had swelled
this to ten thousand, then twenty and
twice twenty. But all the time the seven
pianos were kept working day and night.
She was still teaching music when she had
dozen wells.
She hired all her own men, tested every

Just as unfriendly to the owl; but, instead
of being content with noisy demOnstra-
ton, he swoops downward toward the
bird on the stake. Then out steps W.
Osmun, pop goes his trusty shotgun, and
another chicken-hawk bites the dust.
aYou may not believe it, says MIR.
Osmun, "but the owl seems to like the
sport, and is always anxious to go on

For fifty years Mr.. Osmun has hunted
hawks in Michigan, and, needless to say,
is popular citizen with the farmers and
poultry breeders of that State.

tramps up and down Market Street in San
Francisco all day long for salary con-

Knight?

Knight describes her first appearance in
rags on the crowded streets of Frisco. 1t
was j. A. Darlington, owner of big
motion-picture theater in the city, who
first conceived the idea of putting out a
walking ad for Mary Pickford. He adj
vertised for blonde girl who looked like
Mary, and received two hundred replies.
Out of the crowd he picked Mae Knight,
who had been working at the nice, clean
job of putting white frosting on little
white cakes; and now, whenever the
theater shows picture of Mary Pickford
in a country girl part, it is Macs business
to walk the streets dressed as Mary Pick
ford appears on the screen. There is al
ways pack Of curious people at her heels.
But Mae never sees them. She has culti-
waited far-away look, as if she were seeing
a vision of far country-as, indeed, she
is. The far country is the movie studio:
the vision is herself as famous movie
star-some day.

Nv. The Wooden Shoe Trust
IN tiny, trim little workshop built by
himself of cobblestones, August Vuille-
mot, one time of France, carries on the
only wooden shoe manufacturing business
in New York State. His "plant" is To-
Gated on the shore of Oneida Lake, near
the village of Cleveland. There for thirty
five years he has been engaged at his
novel trade, and in the course of that time
has sold thousands of pairs of shoes. His
workshop is located near highway much
travelled by automobiles, and many stop
to buy his shoes as souvenirs of their trip.
The wooden shoe, or sabOt, which sur
mounts his shop as a wind-cOck, is the
sign that advertises his calling, and it at
tracts the attention of nearly every one
who passes his way.
The Vuillemots came from a section of
France that is noted for its wooden shoe
making industry. There are four villages
built on the industry, and, all told, prob
ably 5000 persons engaged in it. The
Vuillemot family have followed the trade
for at least four generations, "Gus' says,
and maybe longer. The lack of peasant
class in the United States, however, has
rather circumscribed the demand for his
product, which perhaps explains why
"Gus' for so long has been the wooden
shoe trust.
Although not CHASING themselves as
peasants by any means, the farmers living
in the neighborhood of the Vuillemot
workshop buy his shoes in considerable
numbers. They find them light and COM
Portable for morning and evening wear,
both inside and outside the house-and
how they do last
"Gus' can make six pairs of shoes a
day. AS he charges only fifty cents
pair, however, it can readily be under
stood that, even after lifetime of hard
work, he is not rich man. He is con-
tented man, though-which is better. He
makes enough for the needs of himself and
his wife, takes day off when he wishes,
and enjoys life more thoroughly than
many Of his fellow monopolists.
