R. E. White, Hendmwon, was
elected Chairman of the local chapt
er of the American Institute of
Electric*] Engineers at the initial
meetir* of that organlkation, which
was held in the lecture room of
the Electrical Engineering Building
Thursday night, October 6. The
position of chairman corresponds
to that of president in similar
soeftie*. R. Roderick, Dodd City,
was elected secretary-treasure)
for the current year.
The remainder of the meeting
was speat in outlining the aims
and purpose* of the institute and
was conducted by N. F. Rode, pro
fessor of electrical engineering.
The local chapter is' planning a
joint meeting with the Rice insti
tute branch sometime , during
the -pnng. At that time meraben
of the two chapters will deliver
papers on subjects of mutual in
terest.
At a cost of more than fiw
thousand dollars, the college hos
pital has been refinished through
out and a new hot and cold water
system installed. Ice-water foun
tains have b.en placed en each
floor.
(’eiling fans in every room will

announced. A modern tile kitchen
with up to date equipment replaced
the told furnishings.
This year the nursing staff of
the hospital has been augmented
with • technician in the person of
Florance Banderatay, formerly of
Atchison, Raw—a. ,
The word “gin,” as it applies to
the Cotton gia, is said to be a ne
gro corruption of the word engine.
Eli Whitney’s invention of the gin
in 1793 brought cotton to the fore
because up to that time all seed
ing was hand work. A workman
could separate only a pound of
fiber from the seed in a day.

Hershberger was

his leadership apiairently that the
success of Chicago depended, when

carried helpless to the sidelines, it
wss the most serious accident which

Hershberger the game seemed Inst

scrimmage despondent and almost
helpless. Hut all the time there
was Hershberger lying on the side
lines and he became at once the In-
apt rat I on of the crippled team. As
they lined np for play some
called ©Of. '•Remember Hershey fel

which throughout the game urxed

, crippled and out of the game
as be was, was the Inspiration
which brought his team to victory.

It was Felton’p wife who was his
Inspiration. Naturally he was shy,
unaggresslvs, and kept himself In
the background. It was aba who
brought him out, who recognised his
strong points and urged him on to
make the most of them. Be was
cleverest and brightest when she
was sitting near. He pushed him
self ahead because It pleased her to
have him receive recognition. She
really made a new man otrt of him.
