He maintained that after a year or more, their time is wasted in comparatively small positions, and their college courses are of minor importance, unless they are in position for ad- vancement to the top of the com- pany. "Get a job in a small outfit, to obtain general experience," he ad- vised, "and don't specialize in your first few years out of school." He also suggested that the grad- uate move from one position to an- other in his first years in the pro- fession, before settling down to a life work in one establishment, ' where he hopes for future promin- ence. "True, the engineering profes- sion seems somewhat underpaid, especially to the young graduate,' he explained.

Although Mental Hygiene work, first started only a year ago, thii departmenta-l phase is now recog- niizecd -as an essential p it of stu- dent health work. A special office is being provided for this depart- meht in the b sement .additiin to the present clinic. This will be ready within a few weeks. Two deaths have occurred this quarter, a ratio which is far below the average death ratte for a sim- ilarly aged non-collegiate group. This in itself speaks highly for the efficiency of the Health Service, not only in administering aid to those afflicted, but in uncovering and thwarting impending diseases and infections. More than 25,000 regular dispen- sary calls have been made this quarter, while 144 students have been actually confi-ned in the Health Service for treatment. The pharmacy department has filled 3,566 prescriptions during the first three montths of this year, or more than 1,000 more than were filled in the same period last year. King of Siam Lives in Mansion Erected by-One-Tine Miner PURCHASE, N. Y., April 24.-(P) -_King Prajadhipok of Siam, a slight and travel-worn figure who holds absolute power of life and death over his 11,000,000 subjects, has settled down to gain strength for an operation on his eyes. He arrived here Wednesday. For the time he remains in the United States, Ophir hall, the coun- try estate of Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, will be the official residence of the royal party. There the king will rest, except for a brief trip to Washington next week, until an op- eration to remove a cataract froin one of his eyes is performed net month. Several other tentative en- gagements have been made, but none definitely accepted. As the residence of the king, Ophir hall is finally fulfilling the destiny Which its foul'der intended for it. Ophir hall was built many years ago by Ben Holloday, one of the gaudiest figures ever to invade New York from the west, and it be- camve, fittingly enough, one of the most pretentious country places in 'the, nation. Born in poverty in Kentucky, Ben Holloday migrated to Salt Lake City when a young man and started ! a 'pony express." The express lino failed, so Ben moved into N'eVada and purchased the Ophir g'old mine. It made him millions faster than he believed possible, and when the to- tal had reached fifteen he decided to look over the New York of which he had read so much.
