EtcetYie Steel Smelling.

II Is claimed that an electric inddo
ton furnace which has been undw
trial for some time In Sheffield, EuR
land, solves the problem of making
very large steel ingots demanded V
modern machinery because 1t is e.
easy to make a two-ton ingot in this
furnace as one of GO pounds in cruai,
Bile. But 1t is admitted that at pres
ent high-grade steels can be made
by the electric furnace on a CONNER
clally successful scale only in places
where power can be obtained at an
extremely low cost. Laboratory ex-
periments have indicated that high
class steel can be made by the cleo.
trio process from inferior material. but
for commercial purposes this is not yet
possible.

Indifference to Life

The warm weather and the
approach of spring, when mo-
toring becomes pleasure, re-
calls the necessity for more
stringent enforcement of all
the rules regulating motor ira
ffic. There are statutes, both
state and city, to cover all vio-
lations of the law, but if a pub
lie abroad in motor cars is in
different to the rules of the
road, then there must be some
drastic action to enforce them.
There are times when a ped
estrian takes his life in his
hands when he ventures on the
streets. In the larger cities,
especially, the man or woman
on foot, even with their facul-
ties alive to the situation, are
in danger, while the child play
ing in the street, Indifferent to
everything except the exhuber-
ance of youth, is often the vic
tim Of q careless driver. "

WOULD PRESERVE OLD HOUSE
Efforts Being Made to Raise Money 70
Buy Dwelling Dating From Sew
enteenth Century

Some who love good things-and
happily interest in the architecture of
former ages is awakening more
and more-are trying to preserve a
remarkable old PEASANTS dwelling at
Harreveld, a lonely hamlet on the
heather in the province of Gelderland.
1t is called los luis, dating from the
Seventeenth century and the last house
Of the Saxon type. Los, in the Geld
rian dialect, means open, by which it
is indicated that the house consists Of
one room only and that there are no
partitions between the places for hous-
ing and sleeping for men and beasts
cows and goats and chickens living
peacefully together with the inmates.
There Is no chimneyplace the wood
fire burns In hole In the floor, which
Is Of stone, and the smoke is allowed
to find an outlet as 1t pleases.
The peasants, man and wife, who
are living here are beset with the ex-
tremely modern, yet most unfortunate
thought of having a wall built between
the stable and the dwelling room, add
ing a chimney and building another
room, by all of which renovations the
house will be irretrievably spoiled.
The managing committee of the
open-air museum at Anthem are now
trying to get money together in order
to buy the house and have it removed
to their museum park. 1t IS much to
be hoped that they will meet with
prompt success.

ROSARIES FROM HOLY LAND


Ton to twenty TOMS of The poarl-

torie,-hroEen pieces and buu-Qu1s Of
shells-are shipped monthly to the
Holy land, where, in the village where
Christ was born, the material is CON
verted into beads and ornamental OBJ
jects. For many centuries the manu-
facture of such products has been the
only important industry Of Bethlehem.
They find a market largely In the
United States. In 1920 there was
shipped from Bethlehem to this coun-
try at least 100000 worth of rosaries,
made Of mother-of-pearl beads, with
silver chains and strung on wire OF
the same metal, or white metal" for
a substitute. For making larger car
ven or other ornamental objects Beth
lehem obtains supplies Of pearl-oyster
shells from the Persian gulf, from In
dia and from Australia. The chains
Of silver and white metal are import
ed from France. Hand labor Is EN-
ployed exclusively In the industry, and,
inasmuch as 1t Is very cheap, the idea
of using machinery is regarded with

What to do if you
Would be a Doctor
BY EDW. T.. MOORHEAD
a. NJ. VI. d., III. ID.
Chief of Stag. Mercy Hospital
Chicago

There is no profession. or no busi-
ness. so far rs l know, in which the
pathway of educational require
ments is so definitely marked or pla-
carded with guide signs as that of
medicine. The plan of medical edu-
! cation has become. so standardized
and so elevated during the past
twenty-five years that the physician
of today is essentially a well edu-
Gated man.
For the foundation a sound high
school course of four years. embrace
ing fifteen units in an accredited in
stitution. must be had. Although
there are specific subjects that
should be covered even in the high
school branches. fortunately the
student need not at that time pay
particular heed, for the curriculum
of any accredited high school usual
ly contains those subjects. 1t is most
important. though, for the student.
or those having supervision of his
education. to know that the high
school or academy he attends is ac-
credited or else too late it may he
found that much time for valuable
work has been lost.
In planning subjects for the COL
lege course it must always be kept
in mind that medicine is the ulti-
mate goal, for as we ascend the edu-
cational ladder the rungs of choice
become more limited and the steps
we must take are more precisely
pointed out.
At the outside there are two path
ways open to the student. The one
is entirely required. 1t consists of
two years of college work before the
49, 80 NO. n1@1f-. -.L--N
proper. During those two years the
balance of subjects leans heavily to
the sciences. as much chemistry.
physics and biology are required. 1t
is possible, especially when the col
lege work is taken in a school of
the university that conducts a med
ical department, to combine the
credit with the work of the first two
years of medicine, and at their con-
clusion be awarded a Bachelor of
Science degree.
The other pathway. and the one l
should choose were l about to take
up the study of medicine, is to pur-
sue first a college education in the
liberal arts. obtaining the degree of
Bachelor of Arts before entering
upon the study of medicine proper.
This method requires two years
iOliSCI IMAM tie iISl COuTSt, Out the
finished product will be an educated
man and possess values in medicine
that the first will not. 1t is quite
possible to combine with the liberal
education sufficient science subjects
to more than meet the entrance re-
quirements of the medical school.
The choice of a medical school is
most important and the fact that
many of our leading universities
conduct medical departments is a
great aid to the student. There is
one published guide that is we'll to
consult, that Is the annual report of
the Council on Medical Education of
the American Medical Association.
This gives the classification of the
medical schools of the country into
the divisions A. B and C.
At the conclusion of the four-year
medical course a good, broad intern
ship of from one to one and one
half years is necessary to round out
the education of the medic and en-
large his practical experience be-
fore his direct contact with the
nuhIic.

Agreement Reached by

Ratified by Cabinets
n Al lIII-DEI
By DAVID NJ. CHURCH,

LONDON. Oct. I g p. mJ.-The
Near East armistice conference has
been resumed, according to an un-
confirmed report from Constantine
pie this afternoon.
A message had just been received
from Gen. Sir Charles Harrington
British commander at Constantinoa
Pile and British delegate in the
armistice conference. saying that e
expected a decision before night. J
General MaZarakis. head Of the
Greek delegation. was quoted as say
ing that the evacuation of ThraCe
would prejudice the Near East peace
conference; therefore he was obliged
to telegraph TO Athens for further
instructions.
Lord Curzon, British foreign secre.
tary, and Premier Poincare Of France
today reached a compromise agree.
ment on the Near East, and copy
has been telegraphed to General Har.
rington. Both the British and French
cabinets ratified the settlement this
afternoon.
1t is understood that Britain OBJ
jeCted to the tactics pursued by
Henri Franklin. Bouil.on in the Near
East. According 10 the British, NJ.
Franklin -Bouillon is encouraging the
Turks to insist upon demands be-.
fitting Conquerors."
The British refuse to believe that
France is deliberately double cross.
ing" Great Britain and have pre-.
sented a plain statement OF fact to
the French foreign office asking
for a definite explanation Of French
policy.
The Exchange Telegraph corre-
graphed that the armistice confer.
ence had been resumed. but later
advices said that this report was
premature and that the allied gen,
erals were still awaiting furtheIf
instructions from their home govl
ernments before continuing the nc2
gotiations.
