Ho, Hum, How Sleepy We Are!

a story of drifting mine which
came ashore on the Durham coast
some time ago, and gave rise to an
amusing incident, which might have
easily resulted in a tragedy, is told by
the London Morning Post.
"One Saturday afternoon the mine
sweeping division at the admiralty re-
Ceived a long-distance telephone call
from the local Durham police, who
stated that a mine had been washed
ashore, but that before they or the
coast guard could warn people off, a
miner-Who had lunched well--had
clambered ON top of it and gone to
sleep. What were they to do? They
were given strict injunctions not to
attempt to arouse the man, because in
waking up suddenly he might break
one of the horns with disastrous re-
suits TO himself and others. Two hours
later the police, in a very relieved
voice, reported that the man had aWak-
ened of his own accord and had slid
off the mine into safety"

DO YOU SIT DOWN PROPERLY
Sometimes That Is Little Mistake
in Daily Existence That Tends
to Shorten Life.

1t is said that there is a right and a
wrong way of doing everything.
Yet how many of US realize that
there is right and IA wrong way of
sitting down, climbing stairs and SO
on? asks London Tit-Bits writer
Sitting down on Il char seems so
easy that it is impossible to do it the
wrong way, but a specialist, lecturing
recently pointed out that the habit
many people have of sitting on the
edge of a chair is very injurious. A
certain nerve is sat upon, and the re-
suit is sclatica, caused through the
nerve being injured.
Walking up stairs is another thing
that nine out of every ten people do
the wrong way. The usual method
Is TO place the ball Of the foot on the
stairs and then take the whole weight
of the body on the part of the foot,
the heel never being placed on the
ground until the top is reached. The
right way, however, Is to place the
whole of the foot on each stair. If
this is done. there will not be so much
fatigue when the top is reached.
The habit of boiling eggs and bacon,
coffee and other things, and then run
ming for train or bus, is fatal to
the digestive system. The food Is not
properly masticated, and the whole
body IS diS0rganlzed by the wild rush
for the train.
How many people drink a gallon of
water a day? This is the amount that
should be taken If one wishes to re-
tain good health.
Many people 20 wrong in cleaning
their teeth The habit of merely wash
ing the outside of the teeth is wrong.
The back and top Of the teeth need
just as much attention. Decay sets in
as easily at the back and on the top
of the teeth as anywhere else. Re
member also that the top of the teeth
is the part that comes in actual con-
tact with food.
Standing does not appear to be
particularly difficult operation, but no
tice people standing in railway sta
ton. Notice the men, with their
hands buried In their pockets. backs
bent, and heads dropping forward and
the women with their feet at extra
ordinary angles, and so on.
The body when one is standing,
should be balanced equally on the two
feet, which shoulG be turned out
slightly The whole body should be
held upright, including the head.
Talking to a doctor, the writer asked
him what effect doing such things in
the wrong way would have on the
life of an ordinary healthy person.
He replied that it was difficult to
generalize but that doing something In
the wrong way daily might lessen life
by fifteen years or more.

professional help. from tracer at
$500 a year to manager OF an in
dustrial plant at $4,000 a year or
more.
Special attention is given to help
ing the young engineer when he is
becoming established the difficult
period of his life. The young grad
uate has been so engrossed in be-
coming we'll grounded in technical
lines that he is likely to be lacking
in the grasp OF life which comes
from an understanding of the laws
of business economies. The banker
the business man, and the public in
general have simple trust in the
ability Of the engineer to solve most
any physical or technical problem,
but they are likely to avoid his coun-
sci in administrative problems. Not
only are We finding positions for the
young man to which his training and
talents adapt him, but the associa-
ton endeayors to continue his train
ing with special attention to social
and business needs.
Summing up, the efforts of the
association have been toward the i'm
provement of the social and eco
monte welfare of engineers, and to
make engineers of the greatest value
of the people as a whole. The growth
of the association from 1000 TO "a
600 members in three years is con
elusive evidence that there is a need
for such constructive work and that
engineers appreciate its Importance.
But much more remains to be ac-
complished."

More Than Their Share.

The 25th of May was annual clean
up day In our village. Several of us
women were busily engaged in clean
ing an alley. Seeing a small ash pile
topped with a few tin cans near a
stone wall we stopped, and l re-
marked: well, | guess we'd better
get busy cleaning up Mr.. is rub
bish. Suppose he and his whole fam
lily are off spending the day fishing
while we stay at home and clean up

was heard from below the wall, and
Mr.. j suddenly appeared, rake

PROMINENT ENGINEER
LECTURES AT COLLEGE
Secretary of the American Associa.
ton of Engineers Urges Members
To Take Part i'm Public
Affairs

About p members of the faculty
OF the college of engineering listened
to a very interesting talk by c. Il.
Drayer OF Chicago Monday evening.
Earlier in the evening he addressed
the engineers at the University Of
Idaho.
The American Association of En-
gineers was formed to supplement
the largely technical efforts of the
older societies and Mr.. Drayer, who
is the national secretary, is visiting
the chapters of the Northwest in the
interest of better knowledge of the
aims and ideals of the association.
Mr.. Drayer is a graduate of Western
Reserve University and the honorary
degree of doctor of science was re-
Gently conferred on him by Ohio
Northern University as a recognition
of his services to the profession.
An engineer who has not a bust
ness consciousness and is not active
in public affairs today" said Mr..
Drayer, falls short of the larger
vision of engineering, The highest
aim of any profession is devotion to
public service and one Of the funda-
mental endeayors of the American
Association of Engineers is to en-
phasize the policy of developing the
human qualities of integrity, cour-
age, reliance and efficiency of every
member so that engineer" will car
ny the thought not only of technical
spected leader in the community.
One of the purposes, therefore. is
to inform the public of the extent
to which engineering services may
be utilized. Members are expected
to keep in contact with social, po-
litical and educational Organiza-
tions and to participate actively in
civic affairs Organizations such as
the common council, county COM
missioners. or chambers of COM
merce in every community have prob
lens in which engineering talent
could find an opportunity for pub
lie service, Not only can the engin-
eer help in maturing plans for civic
betterment, but he can give practi-
cal suggestions for beginning such
movements as water supply, sewage
disposal, flood control, reclamation.
transportation of foods and raw ma
terials to market. economic devel-
opment of natural resources and a
host of others.
While the main purposes of a
professional organization must be
altruistic, the association is not I'M
mindful of the material needs of its
members We have a national en-
ployment service which last year
placed over 5000 members at an
annual saving of over 100000. The
employment service is growing so
that within a year it will be pre-
pared to furnish an employer. wheth-
