Friday, November 10, 1922 ENGINEERING library IS AID TO STUDENTS Total of Sixty-four Magazines on Current Subjects Offer Wide Range of Reading Matter The School of Engineering provides a great many advantages for its stu dents, but one of the most helpful, and a r the same time the least used, is the engineering library, maintained by the various engineering departments their students. A movement is now on | foot to get students to make use of the library and acquaint them with the many advantages to be derived front Its use. The library is now located at U*l Engineering E. in a well-lighted room, which is easily accessible to all stu dents. The former location in Engin eering F, was so inaccessible, that the change was thought advisable. The several deartinents of the engin eering school spend a yearly aggregate of live hundred dollars in general up k*ep. subscriptions, and such expenses, and more enthusiastic use of the li brary facilities is necessary to make tbls expenditure worth while in the fu ture. A total of sixty-four magazines is on band, which includes commercial mag azines. the journals of the leading en gineering societies, all the leading American technical periodicals, besides several English and French magazines. The reader can thus keep in touch with both in the United States ami other! countries. The library is primarily a library of current reading, and not a library of reference. For this reason, only the current issues of Hie magazines are kept on the library shelves, while all back numbers are sent to the Carnegie Library. Practically all issues of per iodicals prior to 11*17 are hound and available at the Carnegie Library, but lack of funds has prevented the bind ing of issues from 1917 to the present lime. The later numbers are conse quently unavailable at the present time. Aa no one is in charge at the reading room, the Library Commission cannot allow magazines to be taken out of the room, as so many readers fail to bring them back. Smoking is permitted in the Library, and even encouraged, as no other place ia the engineering buildings will tol erate it. It is hoped that students will use the library during vacant hours. u It has been placed in such a conveni ent place, ami contains so many aids to engineers, if they will but use them. PENN’A. NOW RANKS FIFTH IN CULTURE OF POTATOES “Make Pennsylvania first among the potato growing states.” That is one of the projects of the college for the benefit of the Commonwealth, which is being backed by Dean Watts and Pro fessor Nixon. -Through the efforts of the college, its experiment station and agricultural ex tension work carried on through the county agents In sixty-three of the counties of the state. Pennsylvania has been brought to a high position in re spect to potato culture. In the'ten years from 1910 to 1920 Pennsylvania advanced front twenty-sixth to fifth place In this phase of agriculture. Mil lions of dollars have been added to the earnings of the state through this de velopment and it is now considered a “money crop.” Although potatoes have held a prom inent place in this extension work there bas been valuable service given on Other crops. The “Pennsylvania 44” wheat is as impressive and it shows the whole spirit of the work which is being carried on at the college. Valu able experiments have been made on beans, pas, cabbage, tomatoes, and fruits. Experimenting with plants may not W the experimenter.” said President ” l£ * nas ' “but it pays the world.

SHORT COURSE HAS AN EXTENSIVE SCOPE Under the supervision of the Dairy Department the Thirty-first Annual Creamery Short Course will be given January fourth to March third, 1923. When this course was Installed only Cronmery Butter making and Milk separation was taught because there was little demand for such product* as ice cream, fancy cheeses, condensed milk, and powdered inilk at that time. Today, however, the Creamery Short Course is designed to give men fund amental instruction in the manufactur ing of all these products, and also in bacteriology, creamery ((counting, and market milk. This course will meet the demands of both the experienced and the unexperienced man for many men have come to Penn State knowing noth ing about plant work and have gone int'* important positions and made good. '1..-/ college maintains a practical creamery which today is handling the milk from about three hundred patrons ami during the past year has done a business of three hundred thousand dol lars. This large supply of raw materi als affords a most excellent opportunity for the study of Dairy manufactures and Market Milk. The creamery has the fa cilities for manufacturing* these pro ducts and this equipment is open for the use of the students and is practically operated by them. All through the eight weeks period every man in this course will receive lectures in cheese making, ice cream, condensed and powdered milk, manu facture and in dairy bacteriology and market milk, and he will be given prac tical work in the creamery under the supervision of the creamery men. ALICE-SIT-BY-THE-FIRE IS BRILLIANT COMEDY • The play ”AUce-Sit-By-The-Fire”, by Sir James M. Barrie, will be the next performance of the Penn State Players. The performance will be staged Fri day evening. November twenty-fourth, in the Auditorium. ••.Uice-Sit-By-The-Fire" is going to be a brilliant performance and is quite fitting for the opening of the Players' season. The play was released for per formance only last year and the Players are very fortunate in securing it for production. The leads ure played by W. J. O’Don nell '23 and Miss Mary Butcher in an admirable way. Air. O’Donnell Inter prets the part of the "Colonel'’ and is strongly supported by Miss Butcher, who plays the part of “Alice”. The play is delightfully Barrie-like from beginning to end and has been run with extraordinary success on the pro fessional stage. It is whimsical. It is delightful: it is entertaining; and so Barriesque—all in one. MINING GEOLOGISTS TAKE FIELD INSPECTION TRIP Tiie class of senior mining geologists have just completed a five day field and inspection trip under the direction of Professor C .A. Bonine. In addition to the study of the geology of south eastern Pennsylvania and parts of Maryland and Delaware, the party visited chromite, iron, kaolin, and feld spar mines. Rock, mineral and fossil specimens were collected and shipped to the School of Mines. The last two days of the trip were spent in Wash ington. D. ,C. at the U. S. National Museum. The method of collecting, preparing, and mounting various types of fossils was studied at the U. 6. Geo logical Survey and the class was shown the complete process of map making ad printing. :: 'VT'OUR friends :: can buy any :: thing you can ii give them but iiyour photo il graph. The !!

At the meeting of the Leibig Society, which is composed of students special izing in agricultural chemistry, Dean Stoddart former head of the department gave an address in which he told of the history of Agricultural Chemistry since the begining of Penn State. Dr, Pugh, first president of the college, was a prominent agricultural chemist in his time. Dr. Armsby and Dr. Frear were two members of the department who were known the world over. Dr. Dutcher, present head of the de partment, concluded the speeches by stating the future policies of the de partment. Some Distinctive Fea- tures of Osteopathy The features of Osteopathy that dif ferentiate it from all other adjustive systems of therapy are that while the other manipulative systems seek to lim it the boundaries of all therapy to a little narrow strip running up and down the back and embracing the backbone —which constitutes onty the ABC’s of Osteopathy—ADJUSTMENT to the Os teopath means seeking out the cause of the illness of whatever nature and removing it, if possible, and if not, the institution of the appropriate palliative treatment. This cause may be a subluxated spinal verteba or other bone, in which cose-the Osteopath simply adjusts it. Again It may be that such a pathalogical pro cess has set up in some part of the body that only excision of the part will suffice, and in this case the Osteopath calls in the services of a Surgeon—pr viding that he himself does not practice surgery, and has the proper operation performed. Yet again, the cause may 110 in anneidosis due to an auto-intoxica tion which in turn is due to wrong hab its of diet, in which case no remedy will suffice save proper adjustment of the patient’s diet and the Osteopath is an accomplished dietitian. Perhaps the whole trouble lies In some mental disturbance—likely ns not to some freak of the subconcious mind. That being the case, the Osteopath by making a careful pyscho-analysis of the patient is often able to rid him of the offending mental habit and cure him of his resultant illness. . It is in this BROADER sense that Osteopathy is an adjustive system of therapy and, as such, is easily the PRE MIER of them all. DR. R. L.
