VOCATIONAL DIVISION REFERRED TO SENATE
Dean Templin Advocates Plan and Explains Phases of Its Development
A Division of Vocations where University students may obtain information in regard to new fields of endeavor and opportunities in old fields; or in regard to the suitability if plans under consideration by a special senate committee mature.
If established, the Division of Vocations will be added to the eight other divisions of the University such as the Engineering Extension Division, and others. The duty of the Division of Vocations will be to collect and file all data and information in regard to fields con-ferring opportunities for University graduates.
The resolution recommending such a division was introduced by Dean Olin Templin at a recent meeting of the Chancellor's cabinet. The resolution was adapted by the cabinet and recommitted to executive supervision. A special committee was pointed by that body to investigate the merits of the plan.
"I believe the plan to be an excellent one," said Dean Templin this morning. "Every student has a right to ask the University the question, 'What chance is there for me when I graduate?' And the University should have some means of answering him.
"Perhaps John Smith desires to be a banker, but he is not certain how to proceed. Perhaps he may desire to be a plumber but is uncertain as to whether there are other similar questions would be the duty of the Division of Vocations to answer. The inquiring student would receive advice as to opportunities open and the proper courses of study to follow to be able to grasp them."
Besides advising students as to the opportunities open in old fields such as banking, teaching, and commercial lines, the Division of Vocations would help students find new fields. If there should be a big real estate boom in Patagonia affording an opening for University graduates, it would be the duty of the Vocations Division to know about it and compile information regarding
"The new department would in no way attempt to fill the place of an employment bureau," continued Dean Templin. "The University is under attack, and it is being sent a position, but it is under an obligation to give him all the information it can regarding such matters. I believe there is an epoch opening for trained university men and women. Heads of departments are receiving letters every day from big employers to inform them about asking for trained men and women."
Whether the Division of Vocations is added to the University or not will depend on the report of the special committee to the senate. It is an original move and is being thoroughly investigated.

"To give courage and sincerity rather than brutal frankness in our relations with each other, is the better way to give happiness," she writes of women in her address to the Y. W. C. A. yesterday afternoon. "The Give and Take of Life," the subject of Mrs. Brown's talk, she interpreted as the giving nature of life, since beyond that stage of life which simply lives and lets live.

Favors No-Flunk Law
Prof. F, C. Tilden declared himself in favor of a law providing that "no school under the control of the State shall ever flunk anybody," before one of his classes in comparative literature. He said that he would advocate such a measure in case he was chosen to delegate to a constitutional convention.
He explained that if a student was weak in one or two lines of study, the right of an education should not be denied him on this account, but his efforts should be otherwise directed. "Indiana University", he said, or "Brown University", he said, drop a young man because the intelligence God gave him doesn't measure up to the particular standard of excellence."-DePauw Daily.
A Touching Story From Ill.
After the quiz sections were announced in political science, two timid girls waylaid one of the instructors with the plea that the section of one them be changed. When asked their response one responded something like this:
"You see, Irma and I have been in the same classes ever since we entered the University two years ago before he lost what we were to be parted now."
Brought face to face with such a calamity, the instructor relented, and the devoted twined, Zdenka Spatty, '19, and Irma Krummtmbauer, '19, will be allowed to pursue their course unseparated—Daily Illini.

DON'T WEAR NEW CLOTHES IN TUNNELS
"Ever been through the tunnels?" asked one student of another this morning as they were walking to school.
They Won't Come Out Very New
"No," he answered, "have you?" "Yes. Went through the other day with a bunch of fellows. It sure is great."
These men were discussing a subject of which little is known by University students, outside of the engineers. No doubt many students do work with them but did not exist and could not tell how the buildings of the University are heated.
There are 4,500 feet of tunnels under the hill that connect up the buildings on the campus, there being one main channel and many smaller ones. There are two other high enough for a person to walk upright, and have a system of electric lights in the roof. Different entrances into these tunnels open on the campus, one being southwest of the basinium, and one north of Green Hall.
The tunnels are used by engineering students for mine surveying.
When a person goes through the tunnels, he should leave off his best clothes or they won't be his best when he comes out. There is a good bit of soot in the tunnels, and it rubs off rather easy.
tunnels longer than two hours when the heat is on. One man was overcome while in them last year, and had been out and revived with the pulmohrator.
And now, over in London, the military authorities are developing a plan whereby the women are to replace thousands of men in the army. Sevvin meets the K. N. G. who went to the border last summer is said to favor the plan.
