Idea of Deadly Small Arm Was Bom
in the Brain of Fourteen-
Year-Old Runaway.
The revolver, that until the invention
of the automatic pistol, was the most
deadly small arm known to man. was
born of the brain of a four teen-year-
old boy, Samuel Colt. Colt ran away
from school and shipped on board a
merchant vessel bound for the East
Indies. He had a good deal of idle
time on his hands once the ship was
well at sea, and a long period of calm

The T aft inaugural blizzard began
in Washington the afternoon of March
3, 1909. It continued all night, and
the snow in the capital the next day
was so deep that It seemed Impossi
ble to have a parade. But the pa
rade was held, and on a street swept
clean, thanks to the Washington
street department, which removed
thousands of wagon loads of snow and
! slush from Pennsylvania avenue. Many
, people became sick from standing In

to watch the parade. There was much
suffering caused by exposure. Presi

Instruction of the young by the old
was not out of date when “Tbe Wisdom
Books” were written, according to Dr.
Josiah H. Penniman, acting provost of
the University of Pennsylvania.
“The people who wrote the Bible
were very human,” declared Doctor
Penniman, and he Illustrated this with
many, passages fro m the Scriptures.
“The book of wisdom told the people
wnat to do, and most of the people
needed It,” Doctor Penniman said.
“There were Just as many wise as fool
ish virgins—and probably the average
has been maintained.”
Among Doctor'Penniman’s other say
ings were tbe following:
“They offered money to Job when
they knew he did not need IL"
“Be sure your sin will find you out,”
he quoted, and then Added, ‘‘You know
perfectly well a lot of your sins will
find you out.”
“The tongue has always been one of
the greatest mischief makers, as wit
ness ‘where there is no whisperer con
tention ceases.* ”
“I need not explain ‘he that winketh
with the eye flndeth. sorrow? ”
“Sob stuff was apparently used In
olden days, for Delilah said to Samson,
‘Thou hast told a riddle nnto thy neigh
bors, but not unto me? ”
“ ‘What does he get for it?’ waa ask
ed of Job as It Is today of those who
get Into the public view.”
Doctor Penniman declared Job was
the most artistic of the Wisdom books,
and in some respects of all the books of
the Bible. *

The morning schedule in this college
consisted of four periods for recita
tions with five ininiite periods of inter
mission bettveen classes. All classes
were dismissed and summoned from

a small bell operated exactly like the
ordinary doorbell. This bell was in
stalled in the entrance hall of the
building—where most of the students
congregated during intermissions.
For the convenience of the students
a telephone was likewise placed in this
hall. One morning the usual crowd of
students was gathered in the hall,
waiting for the signal to call them
back into classes. When it came, mis

Fads Hygienic Necessity.
As Walter Dill Scott suggests,
every business youth, on beginning
bis or her business life, should adopt
an avocation, a fad, some outside in
terest, only less absorbing than Ills '
business, and should continuously cul
tivate it as a foil, a rest, a saving 1
grace to his business. Provided this
fad or unbusinesslike interest be one
not too narrow and one not too diffi
cult and ¡fatiguing, the recipe is funda
mentally an important one for this
matter of business hours as well as
for personal hygiene in general.—C.
