MAY HELP WITH LAWS.
Two University Professors to Consult With Legislators.
If the members of that body are willing, there is little doubt that Prof. A. J. Boynton, assistant professor of economics at the University, will draft some of the more important bills concerning labor legislation that will come up before the next session of the state legislature.
Governor Stubbs asked Chancellor Strong some time ago to suggest the names of two professors at the University who would be capable men to assist with such legislation. The Chancellor named Prof. Boynton and Prof. W. E. Higgins of the School of Law. The task of selecting a suitable title for all the bills and of determining their constitutionality is left to lawyers, and for that reason Prof. Higgins may be called into consultation.
The most important question on labor legislation that will come up at the next session of the legislature will be in regard to the employers' liability and employees' compensatory laws. Both of these measures have been advocated by labor unions and some of the leading statesmen of the country, but only a few states have as yet passed any legislation on the questions. Both are designed for the purpose of protecting the laborer against accident while in the discharge of his duties and relieving him to some extent of personal responsibility for contributory negligence and fellow laborers' negligence. Both measure will provide for a fund to be contributed by employers out of which injured employees may be recompensed for accidents that might throw them upon the char-ity of the state.

TO FIND CURE FOR TUMOR
Alumnus Writes of Experiments With Tissues.
M. T. Burrows who graduated from the College in '05, has recently published in the American Medical Journal the result of his researches in the study of tumor. The methods used by Mr. Burrows were original and the results obtained have created a great amount of interest in the medical world.'
In his experiments he first took normal tissue from a dog and placed it under favorable conditions in the serum of the same dog anw watched it grow under the microscope. He then took a tumor of sarcoma from a chicken and placed it in the blood serum of the same chicken and watched it develop. Later he took a part of the tumor from a human body and studied its growth under the microscope. It is believed that his researches may lead to a cure of the tumor.
Burrows graduated from John Hopkins University with the degree of M. D, in '09, and is now with the Rockefeller Institute.

N. Y. Professor Complains That They Don't "Make Good."
New York, Dec. 1.—Prof. Leslie J. Tompkins, of New York University, president of the National Association of College Graduates, is authority for the statement that the college woman has not "made good." He has the courage, too, to make the statement in a lecture before the National League for the Civic Education of Women. He said:
"The college woman has not 'made good.' There are, I believe, about twelve thousand or fifteen thousand college women in the United States. Three-fourths of these are so nice that they are married already, and the remainder are freaks. The married women don't take so much interest in outside affairs and freaks can not accomplish anything anyway."
Discussing the question of woman an suffrage, he said;
"Some women do not realize how very powerful is their influence without the ballot. Isn't this indirect influence worth more to you women than the very uncertain power that would come with the ballot that you are ill prepared for? I mean ill-prepared in the sense that the vast majority of women have small comprehension of the functions of government. I'll admit that about 40 per cent of the men who vote are not fitted to exercise the franchise. I'll admit also that I will have no special objection to the votes of women when women as a body are as well qualified to vote as are 60 per cent of the men. But that time has not yet come."
