DEATH TAKES D’PAUW GRAD
A. WHITCOMB, WIDELY KNOWN IND'PLS ATTORNEY DIED ON MONDAY.
TO SPEAK THURSDAY Dr. Joseph Jastrow, who will speak in Meharry Hall on Thursday evening of this week, is a widely known scholar and a lecturer of considerable appeal. For forty years a professor in the University of Wisconsin, he has shown himself a pioneer in new fields of investigation and yet too sound a thinker to follow after
passing fads.
In his volume on the “Subconscious”, published in UtOt), he undertook to bring that term out of its association with questionable and rare occurrences to its deserved place in the intelligent understanding of every day thinking and behavior. He published the book when scarcely anything had been written in a scientific, serious tone on that subject. Similarly his volume on “Fact and Fable in Psychology” attempts to give reasonable analysis of the occult and the
supernatural.
In his later works he shows an increasing interest in the psychology of the normal individual, as is indicated by his latest title, “On Keeping Mentally Fit.” In recent numbers of the Century Magazine he has written on the subject of university management, “Who Runs our Universities?” ami on salesmanship, “The New Idol of the Market Place.” In this article he urges an education toward

Other searching efforts were hampered by a terrific cyclone in the country about Wyndham, but the Northwest Mounted police had an expedition in readiness to leave that city asoon as possible. It was recalled that Father Alcalde of the Drysdule River mission was speared a few year- ago by natives in the same section where the Southern Cross may be down, and the army airdrome here said neither King-ford-
