The division of lapor means specialization to the individual worker.
The individual specializes, because
by restricting his work to a single
trade or a single process he can become more efficient at his work than
he could be if it were more varied.
Specialization can occur only«in society, and implies the habit of exchange. Specialization has some advantages. "Practice makes perfect ;"
an operation , if repeated often
enough becomes a habit ; our bodies
and brains adj ust themselves to pei'forming perfectl y and without effort
what at first is done only badly and
with great effort. The estimation of
forces and sizes, the exact coordination of hand and eye called for by almost any craft become instinctive by
specialization ; by practice is built up
the specialized experience which is
the explanation of achievement in all
kinds of work. While the tendency
to
specialization is universal in the
•
great industries, the relation of the
specialized process to the firm or business unit varies. An important result of the specialization of labor and
the use of power-machines has been
the growth of large scale onterpi'ise.
Tho benefits of the divisional labor
lie in the increased power it gives

It has been recently told to us by
scientists that the soil of the earth
produces less as the years go by. It
has not affected our country in the
least bu t if this is the case in the
United Sta tes, where the soil is cultivated more scientifically, conditions
must*be even worse in such countries
as China , India , Africa and over the
larger part of the cultivated lands of
the earth generally." If the soil is being thus progressively starved , so
that year by year its crop capacity
decreases, one may ask why there
isn't a crop shortage. The reason
why is because of the use of artificial
fertilizers and in the second place the
world so far has been able to feed
itself because its population has not
overwhelmed its food-growing resources.
The position at present is that the
increase of population has reached
a point when a balanced struggle exists between soil exhaustion and increase of population on the one side,
and fertilizer science and agricultural skill on the other. It is a question
of the utmost gravity now whether
science can gain the upper hand in
the struggle. Scientists and chemists
the world over are certainly putting
their backs and brains into the work.

We hear much about women 's dress
in prevailing conversations. It is
claimed by Pope Pius and others that
there is an increased immodesty in
fashions , t'hat this is an ugly and
ruinous tendency, and tha t it should
be checked. The Pope says our modern fashions are immoral and irreverent. But do all opinipns confirm this
view? They do not. It may be that
our fashions are flagrant and perhaps immodest but are they immoral? That is the question. Is a woman immoral if she adds color to her
cheeks , wears short , simple dresses,
and loosens the waist-band?
Rather should it be said tha t these
are merely signs of a healthy and

Due to the fact that some of our
boys have met with an accident and
the death of George Reimer , Stunt
Nite will be postponed to some later
date. We thought that due to this
tragedy you would not enjoy the
evening as well as we would like you
to enjoy it. We will announce the
date for "Stunt Nite " during Chapel
exercises some time in the near
future. If anyone has not yet purchased his or her ticket, they can do
so at once, for many of the students
arc selling them. A large number of
tickets have been disposed of and we
expect a large crowd , so get there
early if you do not wish to stand. A
very good program has boon arranged for this rare occasion. Look and
Listen for the date of "Stunt Nite. "
