BY THE WAY.
The Kansas college girls have
fixed the standard for the "ideal"
young man, the possible husband,
and throughout the hall in the col
lege Young Women's Christian
Association buildings there is post
ed the list of things that go to
make up the Kansas ideal man.
Here they are:
Height, 5 feet 11 inches.
Weight, 159 pounds.
Chest, 40 inches expanded, 34
inches contracted.
Waist, 30 1-2 inches.
Must make a good appearance,
but not a dandy.
Must be jolly, accommodating,
considerate and a true sportsman.
Must be a good conversationalist,
but not a flatterer.
Must revere and respect the
aged.
Must show courtesy to men and
women
Must not smoke, or be guilty o
attendant evils.
Must not sneer at religion or joke
lightly of it.
Must not recognize a different
standard for men and women.
The physical tastes of the girls
are averages taken from the reports
of hundreds of girls of the
state, each girl being asked
to submit the measurements
of what she considered her
ideal man. The nine command
ments for the ideal young man were
chosen from hundreds of state
ments of girls who were asked
to specify the requirements each
would make, and the nine items
most mentioned in the letters were
ones taken as the average ideal
the young man.
Professor F. M. McMurray of
Columbia University, addressing
the Civic League in Yonkers Thurs
day night, said: "The most back
ward educational institutions in this
country today are the women's
colleges. They are worse than
primary schools. They are deal
ing with stuff that never counts in
life. In fact they contend at Vas
sar, which is typical at other wom
en's colleges, that the further you
get from real life and usable know
ledge, the more cultured you be
come".
Dr. Holmes' Book
The J. B. Lippincot company has
just published a book entitled
"When to send for the Doctor, and
What to do Before the Doctor
Comes". This book has been
produced by the united efforts of
Dr. Frieda E. Lippert, and Dr.
Arthur Holmes. This work is of
great value to teachers and parents
for medical examination and for
the care of children.
Dr. Holmes' recent book, "The
Conservation of the Child," pub
lished by J. B. Lippincot & Com
pany, is enjoying a very extensive
circulation.
Dr. Bliss Coming
Dr. Howard S. Bliss' President of
the Syrian Protestant College, of
Beirut Syria, will speak at both the
Freshmen and regular chapel next
Sunday morning. He will also
make an address at the regular
association meeting, Sunday, even
ing. at 6:30.
Dr. Bliss is a strong man. You
should hear him.
MINING NOTES
Dr. E. S. Moore spent last Fri
day and Saturday in Pittsburgh,
attending the meeting of the Mining
Branch of the American Institute
of Electrical Engineering.
Recent numbers of the "Black
Diamond" of Chicago, 111., the
trade publication of the coal in
dustry, have published articles and
editorials on the need of a new
building of the School of Mines.
The April number of Colliery
Engineer of Scranton, Pa., also had
an editorial on the School of Mines
and its need of a new building.
The Coal Age for April 12th.
contained an article by Dr. W. R.
Crane on Folding Troubles in the
Bering Coal Field.

article by Dr. E. S. Moore on
"Horsebacks" in Oliver No. 8 Mine,

New Lecture Requirements
At a recent meeting of the Fac
ulty of the School of Agriculture,
it was decided to offer a general
course of lectures which will be
required of all Juniors and Seniors
taking any of the four years'
options in Agriculture. The pur
pose_of this course is to_provide
opportunity for the presentation of
the results of the experimental
work in progress at this institution
and to discuss problems of impor
tance to agriculture which are not
considered in the routine work of
the class-room. The course will
provide for one lecture a week and
will cover a period of two college
years. This will make it possible
for the men engaged in research
work to present quite fully
the results of the expert•
ments completed or in prog
ress and to also offer a comprehen
sive series of lectures on general
topics without repetition. It is
proposed to secure the services of
prominent outside men to speak on
such topics as Rural Economy, the
Rural School Problem, Farm Credit,
Neighborhood Development Work,
and other topics of impor
tance to rural life and the develop
ment of the best manhood in our
college students.
Agricultural Notes
Mr. W. H. Hillary, Senior in
Landscape Gardening, has been em
ployed to direct the pruning of the
shade and park trees at Clearfield.
The teaching fellowship in the
School of Agriculture for next year
has been granted to Mr. Karl J.
Seulke of Purdue University, and
will be assigned to the Department
of Animal Husbandry.
Mr . . E. M. Bailey, Vice- President
and Manager of the McJunkin-
Straight Dairy Company of Pitts
burgh, spent a day recently in
specting the State College Cream
ery,
Palestine.
On Friday evening, April 25, at
8:00 o'clock in the Auditorium, Dr.
Sparks will deliver a lecture on
"Palestine", a continuation of his
interesting talk on "Egypt", given
March 14. The lecture will be
illustrated by a collection of appro
priate views, and will be of great
educational value.
