Professor Rice at Chapel.
Prof. H. A. Rice spoke in chapel this morning on "Portland Cement," the manufacture of which has so largely increased in recent years that 37,000,000 barrels were produced in 1907. Combined with sand and broken stone in proper proportions it makes the concrete which is used in constructing modern fire-proof buildings. Large amounts of concrete will also be used in the construction of the Panama Canal. Professor Rice outlined the process whereby limestone and clay shale were crushed, mixed together, burned to clinker, and finally reground to produce the cement. One of the most difficult parts of the process to get properly accomplished is the fusing of the materials in the kiln at a high temperature. Professor Rice read a rhyme entitled "Breakfast in the Mill" as a recapitulation of the steps in the manufacture of Portland cement.
Miss Bess Osborn of Lyons is the guest of Ina Wolf, freshman in the college.
Then and Now
YESTERDAY the small tailor toiled, cross-legged in a narrow shop, minus fresh air, congenial surroundings, proper tools and any pretense at system.
Today the small tailor is vanishing with the stagecoach because immense shops flooded with air, equipped with electricity and regulated by marvelous system and science have elbowed him aside.
"Sampeck" Clothes for Boys and Young Men unite the old-fashioned ideals of yesterday with the modern ideas of the master tailor of today.
Remember the name "Sampeck." It stands for the most wearful fabrics, correctest style and finest craftmanship of the greatest tailoring organization in America.

Miss Mossler To Journalists.
Miss Sadie Mossler,managing editor of the Lawrence Daily Journal, spoke to the classes in journalism yesterday morning. The talk was informal and one of the cleverest that has been given this year. The speaker took for her subject the getting of news and the giving of it to the public. She said that it was a great deal easier to get the news than to write it in a manner which would please all the readers. She then told about keeping confidences and the duty of the reporter to his paper and to its subscribers, and finally outlined the work of "cub" reporter on a country paper as well as her own work on the Journal.
