Motor Safety Code.
In line with their safety campaign,
| the Chicago Automobile Dealers’ As-
sociation has issued the following code
of rules for pedestrians:
1. Be on the alert at all times.
! 2. Don’t be in a hurry to cross the
i street. Wait until the road is per-
‘ fectly clear of traffic.
| 3. Remember that it is better to
ibe a few minutes late than to never
‘arrive at all.
. Don’t cross the street in the
middle of the block.
5. Don’t dart out from in front or
i behind a car parked at the curb.
t 6. Don’t depend upon the motor-
list to see that he does not hit you.
| This is a fifty-fifty proposition. Don’t
“stargaze” while crossing the streets.
! 7. Remember that you have your
share of responsibility in the present
, safety campaign.
! Also remember that the court
does not always decide in favor of the
person injured. A great many times
| his injuries are due to nothing more
than his own carelessness.
SIX HUNDRED MILES OF ALPS.
It takes an express train five hours
to travel from Lucerne to Como, or
from Lausanne to Arona. When,
therefor, Edward Whymper, the hero
of the Matterhorn, described the Ca-
nadian Rockies as fifty Switzerlands
thrown into one, this certainly was no
exaggeration. The Canadian Pacific
Rockies stretch from the Gap practic-
ally to Vancouver—nearly six hundred
miles of Alpine scenery. Snowy peaks,
glaciers, rugged precipices, water-
falls, foaming torrents, canyons,
lakes like vast sapphires and ame-
thysts set in the pine clad mountains
—these have been flung together in
unparalleled profusion on a scale
which Europe has never known. :
The Canadian Pacific route through
these mighty mountain ranges is in
itself a vizualization of human tri-
umph over nature. From Calgary, to
which it has been steadily climbing
since it left Lake Superior, it climbs
another three-eighth of a mile to the
Great Divide. Thence, following the
narrow Kicking Horse Pass, it dips
down to meet the already majestic
Columbia river on its way north in a
big horseshoe bend; then it reascends
another quarter of a mile to the sum-
mit of the Selkirk Range before be-
ginning its three-quarter mile drop
to the Pacific. The Spiral Tunnels
through the Kicking Horse Pass, the
Connaught Tunnel through the Sel-
kirks, the engineering feats of a mag-
nitude matching the apparently in-
superable obstacles opposed to the
passage of the railway.—Ex.
355 Training as Teachers at State.
The new School of Education at The
Pennsylvania State College has justi-
fied the recommendation of president
John M., Thomas for its organiza-
tion last summer, for it has a total
enrollment of 355 students, all of
them preparing for positions as teach-
ers.
College enrollment figures, just an-
nounced show that the new school
ranks fourth in the matter of enroll-
ment in the six undergraduate schools
of the college. Engineering, liberal
arts and agriculture are the only
schools with greater enrollments.
The new school gives courses in ag-
ricultural education, home economics,
teacher training and vocational home
economics, and is the result of com-
bining these previously existing de-
partments. Dean Will Grant Cham-
bers states that there is an almost
even distribution of students in the
four classes. There are 73 seniors, 91
juniors, 95 sophomores and 96 fresh-
men. The entire college enrollment
this year will reach 3200, it is
thought.
College Beef Herd Wins Honors at
Syracuse Fair.
That the beef herd at The Pennsyl-
vania State College is one of the best
in the east is evident from the prizes
awarded to the herd at the New York
State fair at Syracuse.
The grand champion steer of all
breeds, a junior yearling Angus, came
also captured a blue ribbon in’ the
junior yearling class and won the
money offered in the Aberdeen Angus
special class. The other winnings of
the herd were: Second on senior
yearling steer; second on steer herd;
third on senior steer calf, and third on
senior yearling heifer.

Penn State Emergency Fund now
$1,335,000.
The emergency building fund cam-
paign started last fall by The Penn-
sylvania State College, after a prac-
tical stand-still during the summer
months, is becoming active again in
various parts of the State where
alumni are endeavoring to complete
the work by the first of the new year.
A total of $1,335,000 has been
achieved towards the goal of $2,000,-
000 for student health and welfare
buildings. More than half of this has
been pledged by alumni and the stu-
dents in college last year. The bal-
ance came from over 10,000 friends of
the college, a majority of them pota-
to growers, poultrymen, livestock
raisers, dairymen and other farmer
friends of State College. These groups
are still contributing to the fund.
Construction work on the first cam-
paign building is progressing rapidly.
It is a men’s residence unit to be
known as “Varsity Hall” and will be
under roof before snow flies.
——American tourists will spend
$700,000,000 in Europe this year.
