K. U. People at the N.C.K.T.A. PROF.BLACKMAR.
The address on "Socialism" by Prof. Blackmar, of the State University, was scholarly and viewed the subject from every point of view. He gave the principles of the great political reformers from the time of Moses to the present time, and reviewed the history of socialism from its beginning, as an institution about the time of the French Revolution to the present time, in France, Germany, England and the United States. It seeks to undermine the home. What is needed is a new man—a new co-operative man in social life. He left this question: Is not the great struggle of life for inequality.

entitled, "Environment in Education." He proved that nations are influenced by environments, and said in part, that man is being more and more regarded as the result of influence of heredity and environment. Environment, to a certain extent, makes a man. Man is not born free. It will be impossible for him to have any ideas or concepts without being colored in some way by the material world around him. The teacher must use some idea the child already has, to impart to him the new. The teacher would do well to follow the example of the lowly Nazarine.
J. W. HULLINGER, '96.
"Seven Incentives to Work" was the subject of Pres. Hullinger's address. These are some of the thoughts presented : "There is inspiration in frollicking, happy, free-hearted childhood." "We are dealing in living truth. We have a right to draw encouragement from a consciousness of something done." "We are not toilers for a time only." "There are no downward tendencies in our work."
