IAN engineer must know how to eX-
plain things" Prof. Davis said, in out
lining his plan. "A lawyer must
know how to argue. Consequently, I
intend to stress exposition in the en-
gineering classes, and augmentation
in the law classes. College and art
students will pay more attention to
the imaginative FORMS
Davis himself is a practical writing
man. and believes that creative work
in literature is the most beneficial.
For that reason, he organized the
Writers : club last year, which has
since been admitted to membership
in the Quill club, a national literary
organization whose members must
have done original literary work of
high standard. Davis has contributed
prose and verse to several magazines.
He was a reporter on the Brooklyn
Eagle for two years, and for a longer
period reported prize-tights for the
Chicago News agency, a syndicate
serving all the Chicago dailies.

Men much in the public eye tend to
develop a line of stock stories which
may be used for evading leading ques-
tons. When a shipping reporter re-
lcently asked Chairman A. D. Lasker
of the shipping board whether or not
he would support certain proposed
amendments to the La Toilette act,
Lasker replied:
THAT reminds me of Weber &
Fields's act in which Field starts a
bank and invites Weber to deposit his
money. Weber asks: But suppose
want it back and the bank hasn't got

then demands: Now. how the -
