LOST MOTION
BY THOMAS ARkLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.

needed little information at
Providence, and as there was young
woman ahead of me, | had both time
and opportunity to watch the young
man In charge of the booth. All his
actions were slow and deliberate. He
had no nerves, apparently, and no ap-
probation of the fact that anyone
might be pressed for time. He did
nothing with dlrectness. He would
dip his pen into an ink bottle out Of
sight somewhere under the desk and
then shake II once or twice In the d.
rection of the floor to remove the
surplus ink and wave 1t in the air be-
fore beginning to write. Constantly
he was stopping 10 turn something
over or to push something aside 10
search of a lost notation of some
sort. He would open drawer and
then shut 1t, he would wander Off 10
some remote and hidden part of the
office for blotter or writing pad. or
some esoteric fact OF which he seemed
TO be In need; he would hesitate In his
work and look up as some one passed,
and all this as time was passing. His
task was simply to copy a name and
number and date In the paper he
was making out-n task that he could
have accomplished In one-tenth of the
time II took him had he gone directly
at Il.
Most OF his activity wns merely lost
motion: II was . little flourish before
he began really 10 do anything: II had
little or no connection with the main
task In hand. AS n worker he was
worth about fifteen cents an hour. and
he caused me nearly to miss an en-
Gugement.
His method is not an uncommon
one. Any one who watched McCnrter
nj his books would see that he studied
in this same way. Most of the time
he was filling his fountain pen. or he
was looking for his pipe or asking
irrelevant questions OF his roommate.
He talked or sang snatches of the
latest song or dozed over his book.
There wns no concentration. no get.
ting directly at the point. Most Of
his mental activity. II IL could be 80
called. was lost motion; most OF sis
time was wasted.
Men tackle moral problems In much
the same way. They edge round them.
they eyade n definite issue. they play
with moral principles ns the man In
Providence played with the materials
on his desk. They get nowhere. be
cause they have no definite objective
In view. Their moral activities are
mostly lost motion.

Suspension Bridge Is
Moued in One Piece

When the suspension bridge which
spans the Avon gorge was removed
from its old job Of spanning the
Thames, II was taken to pieces and
transported to Bristol bit by bit But
the new bridge at Harwlch, in connec-
ton with the train-ferry service to
Zeebrugge, was transported from Its
original position at Southampton In
one piece, London Tlt-Bits says.
1t was a bigger job than the trans
porting of Cleopatra's Needle from
Egypt to the Thames embankment. OF
course II would have been impossible
had either of the towns been situated
inland. but as both were on the coast
ii was possible TO convey the bridge
by water all the way.
The simple plan was TO lash two
big barges together. float them under
the bridge, and then lower II onto
their decks. The bridge was then
towed TO Harwich.
The bridge was erected at South
ampton during the war. To take II
to pieces and transport II TO Harwich
by land. would have cost more than
the structure was worth. Hence the
determination To try to break record
by taking IL from one town TO the
other in one piece.

Con" Man in Austria
Has Dev,ssd Netv Come

When the proprietor of one Of the
leading jewelry stores In the Austrian
city Of Salzberg recently saw q we'll
dressed young couple walk into his
store he had visions of a profitable
deal. Consequently. when the young
man. who introduced himself as EN-
gineer kOerner," asked to see some
rings, Herr Sikan spread out the fin
est he had.
After considerable conversation.
Engineer Koerner" picked out two
solitaires, valued at 35.0OO,00O crowns,
which figures out about $500 in real
money, explaining that he was mere
ly acting as agent for wealthy
friend, too busy to spend time in such
matters, to whom he must show the
rings before closing the transaction.
Handing the jeweler bundle Of
checks as an advance payment and
courteously requesting his companion
to await his return, Engineer Koer-
ner" left the store
Hours passed, still the young wom-
an sat waiting for her cavalier. Herr
Slkan finally grew suspicious and
called up the banks and the police
Then 1t turned out, says the story in
the Berner Tagwacht, that the young
woman knew little more about her
companion than did the jeweler, hav-
ing only made his acquaintance few
days before in Vienna coffee house.
The police knew whole lot about
Engineer Koerner," however, quickly
Identifying him as Frederick Schiller,
enty-three-year-old barber and cafe
pianist, with long record of similar
Jobs, says the New York Times. When
arrested Engineer Koerner" had one
of the rings in his possession, as well
as 6,000,000 crowns for which he had
pawned the other.

Beet for 5000 People
Roasted BY Electricity

A new and unusual application of
electric heating was made recently
when electrically barbecued beef was
served to five thousand people at the
annual round up and celebration al
Ephrata, Washington. We learn from
Electrical World that four steers
weighing about two thousand pounds
each were dressed and prepared for
the barbecue and roasted In large
electrlcally-heated pit built especially
for the occasion. The improvised oven
was ~ feet long. feet wide and
g feet deep. Twelve heating elements
each of kilowatt capacity and con-
sisting of about $50 feet of No. II iron
wire were placed one foot above the
bottom of the pit. Sheet-iron heat de
Electors were placed one foot above
the heating elements. and foot and
half above the dehectors were
placed iron bars to hold the beef
Thermostatic control was provided to
maintain an even heat in the pit
The meat was first roasted at tenn
perature of $50 degrees for two hours.
The heat wars then reduced to $50 de-
grees and maintained at this point for
four hours. For the next six hours
the temperature ranged from $50 de-
grees to 300 degrees. At midnight the
meat had been roasting for twelve
hours, and the temperature was then
reduced to 200 degrees and held there
for twelve hours until the time of the
barbecue.

French electors will take the trouble
10 read Lenin.
For in Lenin's will. Published three
months ago, one finds the frank ad-
does not believe that the Communists
that this policy has failed. Lenin
confesses that communism is impos-
sible for years to ceme and that
meanwhile there is nothing 10 hope
for but state capitalism-which has
nothing to do with Communism
In other words, the Communists
propose for France a. regime which
Lenin admits failed in Russia.
But the crowds do not think. so
far. What they applasn1 in the Com
munist speeches is, first, the old
arraignment of capitalism and bour-
geois society, and, second, the fact
that they represent the most extreme
opposition to present policies. But
arraignment of capitalism is indulged
in by all so-called revolutionary
parties, even in the rnildest Socialists,
whom the Communists are now bit
terly attacking.
What chiefly cbaracterizes COM
munism today is its extremeism.
bers by successive party splits, it
now represents something truly
ferocious. AT ,every Communist meet
ing one hears talk of driving capital
ism out with grenades and machine
guns. And that kind of talk, as
everybody knows, is what the mob
likes to hear.
