Prof. Jlikosoll took the leading role in
"The Slave With Two Faces" and his
presentation of "Life," as master of those
who cringe and fear him, and slave to
those who arc kings and queens, showed
unusual ability ns an actor and interpreter. Anne Hickman, attractive and
talented, played the part of the first girl
to perfection. The second girl's part was
played by Kitty Conroy, whose ability
on the stage has been shown in other
plays, and in this as in others, she won
praise. The minor roles were well given
by Elizabeth Hopkins, Kathcrine Elliot,
F. J. Wedekemper, W. C. Wadsworth and
Hershel Harrington.
In "The Importance of Being Nice,"

Ninety One Miners Take
State Examinations
The state examinations for mining
foremen, in accordance with the recent
law that mining foremen must hold a
state certificate, were held here Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
Ninety-onminers from various parts
of Kentucky came to the University to
take the examinations. More than 100
were expected to apply during the three
days. State examinations for first and
second class certificates were held under
the direction of L. Blenkensopp, chief
of the State Department of Mines.

DURING the practice has beenyears power
revolutionized. The steam turbine has definitely displaced the reciprocating engine as tho standard
prime mover in large generating equipments.
And Francis Hodgkinson lias had more to do
until this achievement than any other one individual.
Mr. Hodgkinson came to this country along
with the Wcslinghouse Licenses under the Parsons patents, in 1890, upon the recommendation

There
are few cases in engineering history where the
record is writ as clearly and impressively as this.
There can be nothing but credit for the engineer
who puts his errors underfoot and rises upon
them, and most of the world's greatest achievements have been so reached. The World also

honors progress that is surefooted and
such as the development of steam turbines
under Mr. Hodgkinson's direction.
Many inventions of tremendous value in
steam turbine practice have been devised and
perfected by him and his
Among
the more important of these are the construction, in 1907, of the first
turbine to
be built in America, and in 1911, of the first
Bleeder type of turbine; the perfection, in company with II. E. Longwell, of the water-segland; a balancing machine for turbine rotors
that is almost superhumanly sensitive; a trouble-promethod of supporting turbine cylinders;
and a very superior process for affixing turbine
blades to rotor and cylinder.

One of the fundamental Westinghouse policies is insistence upon the uttermost in engineering. The observance of this policy in form and
in spirit has provided genuine opportunities for
many men of remarkable engineering gifts, one
of the most notable of whom is the man whose
