ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES
AN IDLE WISH

 'Twould be almost impossible, As anyone might know, And yet, I'd like to get away For just a week or so And journey to distant place, It matters not how far Where there is not living soul To talk about the war. Of course now that we're in this thing, Each one must do his bit But horrors piled on horrors, as Most of us will admit, Are not a little trying to The souls that yearn for peace And ask, How long. how long before The bloody strife will cease? However. here's a thought that brings Some cheer to one and all: Twill be worth far more than it costs To see the Kaiser fall.

81 have Just rendered to President E..
O. Holland my resignation as dean OF
the state college school of mines, in
order to be free to accept the position
rendered me by the commissioner and
board of education as dean of the Idaho
state school of mines, at the Univer-
sity of Idaho Moscow said Professor
Francis A. Thompson to the Spokes-
man-Review.
Naturally after II years of close
association with the Pullman college
leave it with considerable regret, but,
am glad to say, with the most cordial
good will toward the institution itself,
toward Its president and toward my
colleagues in the faculty.
Unite Three Departments
II am convinced, however, that the
outlook for mining education at the
University of Idaho is SO good that
any service can render to the mineral
industry of the northwest can be better
done through that channel than
through any other.
Commissioner Bryan on behalf of
the Idaho board of education and
President Lindley on behalf of the Uni
versiy Of Idaho have both expressed
the intention of making mining one Of
the most important features Of the In
stitution at Moscow, and to this end
they have united the three departments
OF mining, metallurgy and geology as
the state school of mines.
School Has Good Start
with the great mineral industry of
the state of Idaho there is every justi-
fcation for such a policy, and with the
united and loyal support of the mine
owners and mine managers of the
state, to whose splendid assistance is
due the cooperative work in mining
and metallurgy now being carried on
jointly by the United States bureau
of mines and the university, both in
the school of mines laboratories and
dict a great future for the Idaho school |
OF mines. lin personnel the new |
school of mines has an excellent start. |
Professor D. c. Livingston, an engi-
neer and geologist we'll known in /
Spokane and throughout the north
west, has been at the university for a /
number of years. Professor LivingsA
ton is a graduate of the school of
mines of McGill university at Mon-1'
treal. He has had extensive practical /
experience and at present is head of
the department of geology. Professor
Livingston is acting as state geolog-
list in compiling a directory of the
mining properties of Idaho.
