Hutzel 's MAIN AND LIBERTY Your Floral Needs== SA UETHE ENGINIERS, WARNING FROM HARVARD MEN WITH TECHNICAL TRAINING SHIOUJLD BE KEPT OUT OF RANKS Cambridge, Mass., March 6.-Engi- neers should not enlist in the rank and file of the army in case of war, ac- cording to a decision reached by mem- bers of a preparedness committee at Harvard. Men with special ability should not rush to enlist but should hold them- selves in readiness to 'solve the prob- lems of a great army by application of their arts and sciences. Students who are trained in engineering are far more valuable in planning transporta- tion and mechanical details than they would be in the fighting trenches. In Germany, it is said, the engineer- ing students were not allowed to en- list in the regular battalions but were saved for engineering corps, while in England the trained men ware sent to the front as common soldiers at the beginning of the war. The result is that engineers are very scarce in Eng- land but plentiful in Germany. Amer- ican undergraduates and alumni should profit by this experience and enlist in the engineering corps only. >XNIDA~TLS FOR CITY I UTOIN 1C,1" D JOBS TO HOLD PRIMARIES1 FO COUNTY OFFICLS TODAY Are BEST SATISFIED By Us PMONE 115 I SHOP 1107 S.

BADGER ENGINEERS DISCOVER BETTER VENTILATING SYSTEM Madison, Wis., March 6.-Engineer- ing students of the University of Wis- consin have perfected a system to wash and purify the air used in the heating and ventilation of large build- ings. Air is run through a tank of water which removes all dust particles and bacteria and makes it equal and even superior to fresh air. A great saving in heat is the result of the new system for cold air does not have to be heated and then pumped into the rooms. In- stead of this, the old air is used again. The students at present are working upon a plan to clean the water used in purifying the air, so that new water will not have to be provided from time to time.

Alice Wieber Elected to Stylus Alice Y. Wieber, grad., has been elected to Stylus, women's honorary literary society. No matter what corse you 're taking you need this famous pencl! B ECAUSE of the superla- ive quality of materal and workmanship, VENUS is the finest pencil it s possible to make. If you like a thick, soft lead that marks so that you ca read the writing haf-wy across the room, choose the soft degrees 6B-5B-4B. For short-hand notes or easy writing 31-28-13 (medium soft) are popular. For sketching, general writing purposes, etc., HB-F-H-2H (med- ium) will prove deirable. For drafting, a medium hard pencil gives the best results and you'll like 3- 4H-5H-6H. For very thin, narrow lines for extremely accurate graphical charts, maps, de- tails, etc., 7H--H-9H are available. Look for the distinctive water mark finish on each of the 17 black degrees and hard and medium copying. Your professors will confirm these statements as to the merits of VENUS pencils.
