A recent arrival, head cook and
bottle washer in one of our eating
houses, was arrested Saturday for
being intoxicated and after SOLDERING
up and being a really nice boy CD
was allowed to go to his room with
instructions to appear in the police
court at 10 a. m. Monday. However,
the offender failed to show up and
was rounded up by the police force
and dragged into court, but so peni-
tent was he that the hearts of the
officers and justice were deeply
touched, and he was given his lib
erty, having promised with tears
rolling down his cheeks and on a
stack of Bibles that he would never!
never! no, positively neYerl touch
the burned poison stuff again. Mon
day night saw him again arrested,
this time for selling booze. He ap-
peared in court again Tuesday aft
ernoon and was fined SIS and costs
and given a 6O-day jail sentence. To
all three charges preferred against
him he pleaded guilty, and got off
cheap at that.

Lucy Meade and starlight-and
these two colts were also in the
string. Joe himself has been ridden
but few times, yet he is as gentle
and satisfactory as an old COW pony.
These horses have never been hard
to break, being gentled from the
time they were foaled, and being
living examples of the theory that
kindness will do the work in lieu of
the rougher methods of the old days.
These three animals will in the fu-
ture add much to the racing history
of American horses.

Science

Recent meetings of the British As
ISOLATION for the Advancement of
Science. at Liverpool, England, and
the American Association, at Los An
geles, Cal, recognized the growth of
the popular demand for scientific
knowledge and took steps to cooperate
with the public. A survey of public
libraries has shown that people are
demandi 1g mor books on scientific
and semi-scientiflc subjects than ever
before and that this demand ranks al
most equal with popular fiction.
The British association has started
a movement to make papers read at
their meetings more Ineligible to
laymen. 1t is pointed out that while
this Is difficult for the scientist, be-
cause it compels him to use terms as
foreign to his mode of expression as
his mode is to the layman's, still the
simpler the language used the wider
the circle of students.
Edward Liveing, B. A, eminent
English scientist, says: There should
be cooperation of scientists and
trained writer's, who can still preserve
the attitude Of the average man. in
giving the public readable articles on
scientific subjects."
