 Practical copper mining courses be gin a week from Thursday. These will consist not only of lectures and quizzes. but the Copper Queens balop- ticon machine will be used to exhibit original slides showing faults in the methods of work. These slides were made especially for this course.

 Mining and Waste.
 The mining business, he said, is be- set by all manner of waste-waste of natural resources, waste of the hu- man element and waste of capital and the people do not realize how deerly future generations will have to pay for this.
 Professor c. M. Young. of the Uni versity of Illinois. told of conditions in the Illinois fields. He said the in- dutsry there had not emerged from the formative period. Forces within it, he said, are constantly pulling in opposite directions so that there is lack of harmony. He said it was prob able that cooperation among the pro ducers would become thoroughly es- tablished only after some wide con lrol of the industry had been assumed by the state or the nation.
 About $50 delegates are expected to attend the convention.
 After business sessions tomorrow the engineers will visit various St. Louis industrial plants. Wednesday night they will go to Joplin. Mo, to inspect the mines.

nevertheless, from saying that the
end is in sigh, or that Won linden
burg's legions will be swept away IN
the next month or two. The truth
probably is-anl the truth is what
we are concerned in knowing-that
we are, needed to deliver the decisive
stroke. A prominent English military
authority some time ago pointed out
that Won Hindenburg had prepared
another and stronger line OF de-
tense in the rear of his present one,
on which he would retire gradually,
and that these tactics could be re-
peated indefinitely until the Allies
were furnished with a heavy reserve
which could be used to transform par
tial successes iHto complete and over
whe!ming on@s.
If the wac continues next year,
as now seems probable, we will be
able to throw the additional requisite
weight into France. The German
lines will be "impregnable" only If
we fail to do our duty. If we do not,
they may be.
