United States Bureau of Mines Will Bring First Aid Car Here
Mining Engineering Students to Be Given Training and Instruction
"Car number eight of the United States Bureau of Mines First Aid and Mine Rescue Division will be in Lawrence during the week of April 27 to give first aid training to students in mining engineering," said Prof. C. M. Young, of the department of mining engineering, this morning
A number of railroad cars fully equipped with proper apparatus are maintained by the United States Bureau of Mines for aid in cases of serious mine accidents, especially cases of mine fires and coal mine explosions. These cars carry oxygen breathing apparatus to enable them to work in the iron-rich atmospheres of mine explosions, as well as apparatus for detecting poisonous gases, according to Professor Young.
These cars are also used for giving instruction in first aid and in the use of breathing apparatus. In doing this the cars are sent about the mines where they can be located where the miners are collected in classes and given thorough training. This training is also available for the students of mining engineering, and it is for the purpose of training the miners that the car is visiting Lawrence.
"While the training is intended primarily for the mining engineers, a few other students can be accepted. There is probably no other training so valuable as that in the first treatment of injuries, and the men on these cars are thoroughly trained instructors." Professor Young said.
The car will be parked at the Santa Fe station.
The most useful and important words in the English language were recently determined by voting at some eastern colleges. At Vassar College the word that received the most votes was "love." Perhaps the students there are of the opinion that one "can live on love."
Love Wins Contest Among Vassar Girls
"Loyalty" was the winning word at Princeton. It seem that these two schools were consistent, at least, for "loyalty" are very closely interwoven.
To find out what words college students think of offence, Vassar College also took a vote on the most important collegiate words. The words picked were: "dumb," "friendship" and "bawling." We believe be important in all colleges if we consider that "cats" are "friendliness" ideas of "dumb" students.

Chancellor Commends Classical Discussions of Professor Wilcox
Historic and Aesthetic Relation of All Museum Objects Shown in Talks
"I wish to recommend to the students and faculty the lectures of Professor Wilcox. Those who know his rare gifts of appreciation of the classical culture not only for its own sake but in relation to modern life, will recognize these lectures as a fine opportunity to become acquainted with the character of Daneeller E. H. Lindley about the lectures of Prof. A. M. Wilcox on the objects on exhibition in the classical museum today.
Professor Wilcox describes briefly the casts, models and pictures, and brings out their relations historically and aesthetically. He connects them as far as possible with the later and present art objects and shows their influence on modern thought and action.
"The lectures are open to all students and faculty members of the University. I want to make the classical museum an influence on the general articulture of our Uri community," Professor Wilcox said.
Professor Wilcox selects different days and hours in different weeks in order to accommodate students who were absent from classes. He lectured Wednesday at 10:30.
"As it is impossible to speak on al. objects in the museum in one hour, I begin on different days at different parts and in that way more than one visit becomes desirable. Yet in each lecture I can often get brief overview of the larger part of the museum," concluded Professor Wil-
