UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Young Men in Kansas High Schools Considering the choice of Electrical Engineering as their vocation are invited to ask for particulars regarding the courses offered in the school of Engineering of the University of Kansas- Distinguished success has been achieved by many graduates from this school. One electrical manufacturing company now employs thirty of its men. The fourteen electrical engineers graduated last June are now employed as follows: by electrical manufacturing companies, 5; telephone engineers, 2; teaching, 2; graduate work, 1; central station work, 4. The Daily Kansan's Educational Department will see that inquiries addressed to it are answered by the ones most competent to give full participation in university courses preparatory for it.

We "see be 'h' paanp're,' as Mr. Dooley says that J. C. Nichols of Kansas City was made a member of the executive board of the American Civic Association at its meeting at Balimore recently. Which is something of an honor for a man barely thorny years of age and only eight years out of school. There must be some degree in job training. Jump career that would serve as a lesson to the youth who are finding it hard to "get on." Let's see. Nichole is worth in the "immediate vicinity" of $300,000 to day and probably will double the amount a few times before he retires from business. Possibly you say that he inherited the wad of money which he received, which is the case. What help he got in his brief, but successful career, was given by himself and not another soul. Eight years ago Nichols finished Kansas University. He was just like the rest of his class except that he was prematurally bald and an everlasting live wire. He had just as good a time as anyone; tore up as many bed clothes and broke as many bed slats in his boarding house as any other follow and attended just as many social functions as his studies would permit—which was most of them because, by keeping his noodle at work on his studies, he got rid of them in half the time an ordinary student would require. When he quit school Nichols prevailed upon a law firm in Kansas City to let him study with them. He was a rustler and they needed one. They had grown middle aged in the business and they needed new blood in the firm. They got it. It was red blood, too. Inside of a year Nichols had turned some business deals that made the firm and himself a little money. He saw an opportunity to increase the scope of business and, staking his judgement that the firm would be able to buy and bought options on ground. He finally platted the largest single addition that was ever added to Kansas City. It began with Rockhill Park and grew to Sunset Hill. He has made more money in five years than any man in Kansas City under fifty years of age, and it hasn't apologized him, either. -Ottawa Herald.

Gessel of the public speaking department of the University delivered an address before a banquet of the Leavenworth Ad Club last week on the subject of "Efficiency in Government and Business." The Steel Trust, the Morgan combine, and the conservation of national resources came in for discussion. "The business men of today must be psychologists," he declared. "Advertising plays a very important part in the advancement of any business or municipal." He pointed out many Universities which were establishing courses in salesmanship, and told of the extension department of the University of Kansas and its relation to the business world. WILL BUILD ROOM AT CHECK STAND FOR EXHIBITION Edward E. Brown, purchasing agent of the University, has ordered that a thirty foot room be made out to him, where nearly occupied by the old check stand. The room will be used as headquarters for the University Exposition until the end of the year. Afterwards it will be used as a meeting place for the University Council and Board of Regents.

WE CEASED MOURNING Cornell has abolished the old roller towels and substituted for them modern sanitary rolls of paper, which, as the directions say, are used just like a blotter.
