The germs of what may be revO-

the students and their instructors.

radio and electrical engineering are

O. G {. q are all babies '''s-s's' at ''''''
A. The Children's Bureau says that nearly
all babies have blue eyes al birth, but the
permanent color appears in the first few
weeks. A baby does not shed tears until it
is about three months old.
Q. What makes hair naturally curly?
f. T. b.
A. The contour Of the hair is circular,
oval or flattened. Whether hair is curly
or straight is largely dependent upon its con-
tour; the more oval or flattened it is the
more it will be curIed.
Q. Why does spring arrive on March 20
some years. and on March p at other times?
j. G.
A. The seasons begin about six hours later
each year, except leap year; then the begin
ming is eighteen hours earlier than in the
preceding year.

A. The first Chinese exclusion act was
passed May 8, 1882.
Q. In the English language. which letter

The FLIGHT Ouer the Pacific

vF the adventure of the United States army
aviators, Lieutenants Wade, Smith and
Nelson, for fight around the earth
should end at their landing in Japan, still
they would have scored one of the great eX
ploits of the air; for they are the first of
men to fly across the Pacific.
This achievement, though less startling
than the first aid voyage over the Atlantic,
is in no wise less significant. True, the ad-
vance of the Squadron was relatively slow
and the descents relatively numerous. The
main object of this enterprise, however, is
not speed, but distance and endurance. More
over, the tolls and perils of weather encoun-
tered by the fiers were an utmost test of
their mettle. Hardihood and SKILL as we'll
as sheer courage, they manifested in full
measure.
If those immense and stormful wastes of
by the American aviators there is no region
Of the airplane world which men cannot es-
say with confidence. "Transpacfc flights"
one observer we'll says, may become com
monplace in the future, but it is to be pre-
sumed that those who later follow the track
Of the pioneers will have some permanent
facilities for handling the airplanes at the
intermediate stopping places selected, in
stead of having to depend on open anchor
ages They may fare better in the planning
of their route, too, after political conditions
become fully normal, for a stop on the KANT
chatkan Peninsula would permit both of a
shorter nonstop flight and of the establish
ment of a base in a better harbor than is
available in the Kurile group"
Having got thus far the army 1iers are as
we'll assured of success for the reminder Of
the globe girdling plan as the heroes of such
an adventure could be. 1t is expected that
by midsummer they will have crossed west
ern Asia and Europe and will be ready to
take wing for the final arc of their vast
circle, oyaging homeward by way of the
Farce Islands, Iceland and Greenland

CHILDREN DIsOBEY TO GET EXCITE
MENT

One reason why children disobey their
parents is because they love the excitement
disobedience causes, according to bulletin
on juvenile behavior issued by the National
Committee for Mental Hygiene. If making a
child mind is made interesting by excite
meht, many children will want to be disobe-
dent, just as some men fight for the love
Of it.
Parents are blamed for most of the dis
obediences of their children. Wrong meth
DDS are used to secure obedience, the report
states Commands are given when the chill
dren are inattentive, or there is too much in
decision and insincerity, which the child
quickly takes advantage of, or fear of pun
ishment or hope of reward are too frequently
employed.
Obedience to the right rather than mere
submission to orders is held out as the ideal.
While some parents obey their children and
give them the false idea that they are al
ways going to get| whatever they want, other
children are taught submission so we'll that
they are not allow d even to think for them
selves, and so grow up INTO helpless men
and women who always need someone to tell
them what to do. Securing the child's faith
that what he is told to do is best for him
is advocated as t. e first step, which should
be followed by method of training which
will train them in knowledge OF what is
right, and in Science Service.

tn HERE is a wealth of good advice for
business workers in the recent state
ment by the head Of large American
industrial corpora,ion.
at is often hard to bring home to a man
in position of business responsibility that
he does not know it ALL and that he could
profit by counseling With others.
"All of us have some weakness. But most
human beings do not like to admit even tc
themselves that they have human weaknesses
and limitations.
Therefore it is often extremely difficult
to get man in the frame of mind where he
will gladly seek to gather from other people
what would offset, what would remedy, his
Weakness"
There are, to be sure, good many men so
lacking in self-confidence, and so Indifferent
to betraying to others their lack of conf
dence, that they run hither and yon seeking
counsel And even after they have talked
with a multitude of counselors, these same
men find it singularly hard to come to a
decision.
But the opposite defect-the defect indi
Gated in the statement quOted-fs at least
equally in evidence. Unless recognized and
corrected in good season its ultimate conse-
quences are fully as serious the conse-
Quences of the defect of self-distrust.
There rises before my minds eye the lined,
anxious feaures of a man | have known for

Relatives who appreciated the handicap OF
his youth and inexperience, offered him from
time TO time suggestions that would have
been really helpful. Invariably these rela-
tiyes found themselves rebuffed. 1t almost
seemed if the mere fact that suggestions
were offered him by others enough to
make young Mr.. Egotist more determined to
rely entirely on his own judgment.
That judgment being none too good he

He has never ; .cceeded in coming back,
chiefly because he has never been able .

To make his plight more pitiabe, his endeav-

enterprises so highly speculative to be vir-

Any experlL-ced business man could have
enlightened him regarding the fatility of his
various schemes. He asked nobody's advice,
impulsively took up this or that and stub
bornly persevered in faulty courses until
cessity compelled him TO turn to something
else.

might be inclined to think. Certainly the

Republican Inconsistency, and
Democratic Obbortun;tu

Official satire bordering on the farci-
- cal will be enacted at Cleveland this
week when President Coolidge is
named leader by a party with whose policy
and performance on the major issues of the
day he is at sharpest variance That he will
be nominated to succeed himself, there is no
question, notwithstanding the ill-eoncealed
want of cordially between him and the Re-
publican worthless who are the power behind
the throne. He fain would be quit of them,
and they of him; but neither yet can do
without the other. He has reason to be
chagrined at their record, and they prob
ably find scant cause for enthusiasm in his
But for the bosses to seek another nominee
would be to repudiate the administration
which they will ask the country to indorse;
and for Mr.. Coolidge to seek other coun-
selors would be to abandon those with whom
he must swim or sink So, in the exigencies
of politics, water will mix with OIL
But it remains to be seen how they will
manage the platform. Will they point with
pride to the bonus which the President ve-
toed? Will they demand enactment of the
pension bills which he denounced? Will
they commend the immigration policy
which he so severely censured? Will
they claim credit for the tax revision bill
which he, though he signed it, condemned?
W hat will Of fha
which he favors, but which the Republican
Senate fights? On these and other major
matters President Coolidge and his party are
at odds. They do agree on the Fordney-
McCumber tariff, with it's inequities, its
crudities, it's foolish barriers to the develop
ment of our foreign trade its heavy burdens
upon the consuming millions. But on most
issues aside from the beaten track of Repub-
lican favoritism to special interests, the
Cleveland convention cannot indorse the
President without eondemning the party, nor
indorse the party without condemning the
President.
Thinking Americans will hardly wish to
FscomHllt tue government TO SUCH divided
and inconsistent, not to say reactionary,
counsels. The Democratic party faces a
rarely equalled opportunity for success and
for service. That its rank and file are alert
to the cue of the times is evident from
me enthusiasm with which they have turned
to William G. McAdoo for leadership The
policies for which he stands are in complete
and vital accord with his partys splendid
record and. what is still more significant,
