INGRAM Compositor MARCUS E. CROW Compositor CECIL A. DUTTON Apprentice Saturday, April 8, 1916. When we see any person who is honest and has the capacity for hard work we may safely put it down that they will accomplish something in life that will be a credit to themselves and helpful to the world. No sine person works just to benefit himself. lie works to elevate not only himself, but his neighbors. He is unselfish in what he does because he wishes others to advance with him.”—The Home Journal. When a printer sets a line of type and carries the idea in his head that if there arc any errors they will be caught by the proof reader he is wrong. It is because errors will creep in, in spite of the best of care that the proofreader is needed to minimize them as far as possible. The proofreader is not supposed to be a catch all for every kind of carelessness and incompe tence. The compositor himself is responsible for errors, because he is the man who makes them; the proofreader is not so responsible because he fails to catch them all. If any printer has anything to say against this assertion, we will be glad to open discussion for the good of the printer himself,—Inland Printer. f QUESTION BOX Answers to last week’s auestions. (i) Name the Colleges of Colo nial times , and state which of these owed its existence to the patronage of the home government.

(a) Achilles pursues a tortoise; he is ioo puces behind at first, but runs ten times as fast; still when he has gone a hundred paces the tortoise lias gone ten, and while he goes ten the tortoise goes one, while he goes one the tortoise goes one-tenth of one, and so forever; the tortoise always being a tenth of the last distance ahead, yet we know that Achilles could soon over take the tortoise, Where is the fallacy? (a) The fallacy lies in assuming that Achilles takes a tenth of a pace and a hundredth part of a pace. He takes full paces, not fractions. He takes 112 paces. (3) Explain the rotary theory of the formation of hail. (3) Snowflakes, which form the nuclei ot hail are supposed to whirl around a horizontal axis, and be tween two horizontal layers of cloud—the upper one of snow, the lower one of rain.

North Ave. “Lest We Regret.” (By Walt Mason) The tumult and the shouting rise from Europe’s red and harried shore; the kings and captains, to their eyes, are wading in a flood of gore; so Dt’s talk peace, already yet. lest we regret, lest we regret. The nation’s honor we’ll defend whenever their shall rise the need; but to this country he’s no friend who always wants to die and bleed ; let’s flaunt no sword or bayonet, lest we regret, lest we regret. The Jingo fierce will never cease berat ing people sale and sane, who’d rather have the boon of peace than see the landscape strewn with slain ; let’s gently drown him in his sweat, lest we,regret, lest we regret. Build up the army, if you will, and make the navy great and slrong; but don’t confess a lust to kill, or talk of bloodshed all day long; don’t claim that war’s the one best bet, lest we regret , lest we regret. Don’t be too eager that our sons shall seek the sodden fields of gore, to furnish targets for the guns of men they never saw before : don’t whoop for death and dearth and debt, lest we regret, lest we re gret.
