Although the copper cent is the
most modest coin OF the realm from a
standpoint OF intrinsic value, it brings
the greatest return in the way OF prof.
its to the government. AS explained
by Adam NJ. Joyce, superintendent of
the mint, when the government wants
copper, zinc and tin to make pennies,
it does just as any shrewd business
man would do IN order to get the raw
material for manufacture.
When the metal arrives at the mint
it is in the form OF ingots that remind
one very much OF shoe trees. The
ingots are then taken to the deposit
weight room to be checked and
weighed, after which they are a reg
ular part of Uncle Sans stock.
After the bars have been rolled into
strips the thickness of 1-cent piece,
they are cut into convenient lengths
and then ready for the cutting ma
chimes that turn out the blank discs,
These machines cut nine pieces at ev-
cry stroke of the plunger and make
100 strokes a minute
Then comes the cleaning and polish
ing, in which the embryo pennies go
through a process not unlike that to
which ones weekly wash is subjected.
First, journey through the annealins
furnaces to give the metal the soft
ness lost in the rolling mills; next an
alkali bath of soap and ammonia;
then few minutes in a mangler for
drying purposes. and, finally a pol
ishing with soar stone and other ma
teria!s.
Coins Carried on Belt
By two ingenious arrangements,
both the inspecting and counting are
done with great rapidity. In the form
CT a moving belt carries the coins
slowly across the face of table be
fore which an attendant sits carefully
sCrutinizing each piece. Through
long practice the inspectors readily
note the slightest defect in the coin.
whether mar in the design or a spot
caused by chemicals. AS the belt
travels along TO the end OF the table.
| il automatically throws each coin on
another belt with the other side up.
and another inspector watches for de
tects on the newly upturned side of
the coin.
Quite as remarkable as the ma
, Chinery used in making the pennies
are the scales upon which they are
weighed. Unlike the delicate balanc-
; es that are found in the chemists la b.
OratOries, these balances have the ap-
! pearanCe of being fitted more for
weighing junk iron Nevertheless,
! they are so constructed that while
able to weigh three men Of 200 pounds
each, they will as readily register the
weight OF a lead pencil point. Owing
10 their delicate poise, they have to
be adjusted several times a day The
upright of these scales is seven feet
/ high the beam alone weighs 10
pounds. and the pan in which the
; coins are placed tips the scales at
thirty additional pounds.

WHAT III HAS DONE

Grand opera was decadent art.
The phonograph came to the rescue.
Musical drama of high order was
slowly passing from our civilization.
Only occasional opera seasons in Par
is, London, and Rome were the only
evidence that this peculiar form of art
had not died out altogether. In Spain
and Italy, strolling bands of singers
kept alive, among the peasants of
their countries, a love for this appeal
ing and uplifting class of drama. This
was the case in Europe.
In America, people living outside
the few great cities were not educated
for grand opera. They could not ap-
preciate it until they knew something
of it. Few great singers were invited
to come to this country from Europe
to entertain American audiences. 1t
was beginning to appear to some
American artists who knew the musi-
cal situation of the country, that the

WHY DISCRIMINATE!

Citizenship clubs all over the Unit
ed States have been formed to edu-
cate the women voters. Women are
to be taught how to vote, the princi-
pies and obligations involved. The
best educated men in the country are
lecturing to the women on every con-
ceivable subject which has anything
to do, remote or otherwise, with their
political life.
We are tired of illiterate voters, is
the reason given for the citizenship
clubs.
1t is right We should be tired. But
why not try the same principle on the
uneducated and immigrant men vot-
ers? No doubt the majority of the
women who are being lectured to need
it, but no doubt most of them can read
and help themselves in various ways
too. But there is a vast field of work
in citizenship to be done in the class
of illiterate men voters and if such a
wide and intensive program would be
carried out for them as is being done
for the women we could raise the
standard of voting and by doing this
we could help to combat the Bolshe-
Wiki of the United States.

THE OPEN COLUMN
In Defense of the .SpeciaIs.,

Editor the Evening Missourian:
Judging from the late decision of the
Student Council in regard to special
students wearing freshman caps, we
naturally conclude that this represen-
tative body acted a little hastily and
without properly debating the matter
before coming to conclusion.
We believe they have overlooked the
following facts: That special stu
dents, as a general average, are ma
ture and serious minded men who
due to their more advanced age, have
acquired that natural dignity which is
not in harmony with the spirit of the
kid caps. With but few exceptions
special students are taking advanced
courses, and before being allowed to
do so they must first prove that they
have had the two years academic
work or its equivalent. This, we think
justifies us in believing that we are at
least equals of the upperclassmen.
Therefore, We question the fairness
of this ruling and hope that the Stu
dent Council will retain the support
and respect of the specials" by let
ting the matter drop.

American people were going to be the
most unmusical race on earth. And
then came the phonograph.
Within less than quarter OF a
century this is what the invention had
dome for America. 1t had revived
grand opera in all the big cities.
Through it's records made by artists,
it had created a taste for high class
music among people not fortunate
enough to be able to hear the operas
themselves. The high salaries paid by
the phonograph companies encouraged
the first artists of Europe to come to
America. They also induced talented
young men and women of America to
take up music as life work.
The phonograph created the desire
to hear the great singers in the operas
themselves. Opera companies were
formed which have entertained Amer
lean audiences from coast to coast.
This would not have heen possible.
The opera companies would have
gone under" fguratively speaking.
had not Americans taste for good mu-
sic been developed to such an extent
that they can appreciate the work of
a true artist. The phonograph is to-
day largely responsible for Albert
Spalding's musical America"

LABOR PLUNGES AHEAD

For perhaps the first time in history
public opinion is almost solidly al
ligned against labor during a strike.
Newspapers in every section of the
country are opposing the strike of the
steel men. They see in it an attempt
of the most radical element in the la
Dor union to force its program on the
country. Pittsburgh papers Saturday
morning carried page advertisements
headed Go Back to Work Monday"
So far the strike has met with little
success. Each day has seen more of
the men going back to work and the
first part of this week will probably
see the crisis reached. Although the
Bethlehem men are scheduled to walk
out today several Of the shops that
have been closed during the past week
are expected to reopen.
Public opinion of the country de-
mands that the men go back to work.
1t sees in the strike no justification
but am absolute disregard of the pub
lie interest. The strikers are taking
advantage of serious situation be-
lieving they can put over their pro-
gram because of that situation They
demand larger wages and shorter
hours at time when production
should be speeded up and when high
er wages will only mean rise in
prices throughout the country.
The strike is not backed up by the
conservative element in the Fedora
ton of Labor Samuel Gompers,
president of the federation was op-
posed to the strike. He wanted to
wait until after the meeting of the
council that the President has called.
But the radical element headed by
William z. Foster broke loose and
threw the steel industry into strike.
This step has lost much prestige for
the labor unions. They have shown
themselves absolutely disregardful of
the public interests and in the end this
mistake will cost them dearly.

sLittle Sense and Less Religion.

Editor the Evening Missourian:
notice in the editorial column of
your September 27 issue this state
ment: "The Rev. Charles McAlpin

if their average wage of $500 is not
raised. All of which, ii he really
seriously said it, only goes to show
that 1.-The Rev. Charles McAlpine" to
put it gently, has but little sense
and less religion.
The minister's work is of priceless
worth or it is of no worth at all.
The preacher who ought to preach
will preach, money or no money. And
the preacher who breaches for the
pay he gets ought to be bounded out

remarks that might be made, but for
the people who can think these are
sufficient.
