SMITH, A.B., A.M. EDWIN DAVIS, BS. Professor Manual Arts Assistant Professor Science and Manual Arts y HE law of life is growth. Thus this department is very much . Yrslz V alive. Since last Reveille there have been added a new double arbor power sawing machine with five horse power motor to drive it and a twelve inch planner and jointer with a three horse- l' ? power motor drive. The drafting room, while crowded in with the bench room, has had built by loyal students, twelve drawing cabinets with four drawers and a cupboard to each. I In the early part of the year much of the activity in this de- partment was turned into the erection of the two story Normal Building on the Fair Grounds which was completed i11 eighteen days and remains a credit to the achievements of those who do things. I Not the least in the growth of the Manual Arts Department has been the addition of an assistant, Mr, Davis, a former student and alumnus. His work ' has filled the northwest room, expanded into the neighboring rooms and corridors, 11 and is still spreading. Some of the results of former years are showing up in the confidence with which students tackle a stiff undertaking. The ice house, the poultry house, the gardensrls cottages have been built by student labor upon their own initiative. Many letters and personal visits from former wood workers now in the field are received at this office attesting the popularity of this branch of education. The boys who are out are making good and taking high rank with those who secure the b est positions. . Page Tfwenty-three .

Hays Normal has tried to demonstrate that there is no di- vision point. The training ofa hand to make what the eye sees-picking out tl1C beautiful and applying it to our every day conditions are things that everyone should be able to do. When the student learns to visualize the things around him by drawing them or making a decorative motive from them he is rapidly becoming more able to see clearly in any other line of education. Among the many features of interest. we have had an exhibit of reproductions of old and modern masterpieces. The entire student body showed an intense interest in the pictures. Those of us who live awav from Q Q perhaps never see good pictures and the stu- dent body appreciated this and everv spare moment was spent among the pictures .1 ' L ' fb during their stay here. M-rs. Jean Sherwood of Chicago, chairman of the Art Divi- sion of the National Federation of Womenis Clubs, came with the exhibit and gave a formal lecture and many informal talksiabout the pictures. Mrs. Sherwood is con- sidered the best authority on art in America, having spent many years in study in Europe. She was highly pleased with the work of the, department and took some work with her that she might show it at the different exhibits. Perhaps the most auspicious thing that came to the department was the recognition that we received at the State Teachers' Association. The departments, exhibit there attracted more attention, perhaps, than any other exhibit, and Miss Bonnie Snow who was for many years head of the drawing, in the New York city schools said it was one of the best exhibits she had ever seen outside of a professional school. Wfe are now at work and the road is long, but we have assurance that the work of the Art Department of the Fort Hays Kansas Normal will some dav be felt all over Wfestern Kansas.

Blacksmithing and Farm Engines f f H5 QLD .FTM Hays HCS' wal Bwldme has been ',,, used for the past elCVCH years to house the division of the Aft? Department work which includes E arm Blacksmithing, and Farm Engines. Cn account of the site being needed for the Sheridan Coliseum the old building familiarly known as the Incuba- tor, has again been moved. It is now do- ing duty in the iAgricultural Department as a real incubator for the work in Poultry. The Earin Blacksmithing and Farm En- gines were the first departments to find quarters in Sheridan Coliseum. The en- - tire ground Hoor on the north is now given over to the work. The East room is fitted up for a blacksmith shop. Four of the small stationary engines are also in the room. The West room ,houses the farm tractors and at present the Normal Iitney. Two companies have donated engines for demonstration work. The Case Co, has sent t t wo ractors. The I. H. C., The Avery and the Emerson companies have sent one each. We now have ad t of the work. THOMAS M. Woon, BS. Professor Farm Engines and ' Blacksmithing equa e room and equipment for the presentation The work in cement construction gives opportunity to become familiar with the testing and mixing of cement, the making of forms and the various uses for which it may be used by the farmer. T This department believes every farm should have a shop in which the farm machinery can be repaired. A forge and gas engine should be a part of this equipment. Many students having taken the work of this department have built shops in which they have shar en d th l I g . p e , e p owshares and done practically all black- snuthing required on the farm. The gasoline engine is being used by the farmer for so many purposes that a knowledge of its construction and operation is necessar Q h . u y. ur equipment makes it 'possible for the student to get practical knowledge and experience in the oper- ation of a variety of engines in both stationary and traction types. The full equipment for a farm electric li l l i ' git p ant is on the ground. This will be properly installed as soon as the new building is completed.
