In order to allay a m isunderstand­ ing among Borne as to w hat consti­ tutes news and what advertising, we print this very simple rule whicn is used by newspapers te differin- atlate between them : “ALL future events, where an admission charge is made or a collection is taken IS ADVERTISING.” This applies to organizations and societies of every kind as well as to individuals. All reports of such activities after they have occurred is news. All coming social or organization meetings of societies where no money contribution is solicited, initiation charged, or collection taken is NEWS. l ì ’* - / ; Monday, August 9, 1081 When the time for Washington’s sêè^ ond inaugural came around he was In doubt as to the proper method of taking the oath for his second term.

REVOLVER IN V E N T E D BY BOY 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 We make all quotations ou weather followed its movements.

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 | the snow or sitting in the cold stands to watch the parade. There was much suffering caused by exposure.

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. * people it was ever my fortune Io en­ tertain at one and the same time. 1 know 1 came nearer to wishing to van­ ish off the face of the earth at that moment than ever before or since. 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 and to classrooms at the same time by 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 taking it for a telephone call, 1 hastily picked up the receiver and called “Hello.” No answer—so I repeated my “Hello” louder. By this time 1 had the attention of most of the students—they stopped their chattering and were intent on watching me wake up.
