It was not until the last week of the contest that the student body became greatly disurbed. Then 1 was whispered about the faculty was much divided over the question. It came to light that Prof. Perrussel had already spent sixty-nine cents on Helen and was prepared to back her, to the limit (unless Hattio found it out).

These he proudly made to Effie Weber.

Upon investigation it was learned the Doctor had secured this vast amount in a game of African Golf the day before. Dr. Biggins was backing Effie strong but Russell was persuaded by Frof, Perrussel that Marguerite was by far the best looking. The first real tragedy started Friday night when Edna told Lloyd that she would give him back his ring if he didn't enter her name in the contest. Owing to the fact that he only had and needed .61 more, the next day he bet Rev.

Benton the whole amount that he couldn't secure a quart of whiskey in twenty-four hours. Benton secured the jay water, hence Edna was not placed in the contest and Griff has a diamond for sale. Ted Jewell showed real brains in his part of the contest. He told Era any girl of his would be in the contest. Era saw her chance cut Orlo and dated with Ted.

He would watch these two individuals during the coining day. At 6:90 a. m.

Edna came down the basement hall singing, "Ah twenty-one indeed boys, ah twenty-one for me." At 7:41 Bernice and Florence rushed toward Lola demanding her favorite charade. Lola frowned, but said, "a gallon barrel." The girls laughed and answered, that they were two, who wouldn't have anything to do with a barrel but knew 2 and 1 girls that did. The plot was thickening and although it wasn't time for 8 o'clock class, Detective George Broady decided to go early so that he might think this over. As he entered the door, he heard a gentle voice say, "Prof. Bagby, please help me solve this problem.

How ia nearing completion. Plana foi the courses to be offered next year have been approved by President Price. Although these changes have been contemplated for time, they are to be realised as a result of the untiring tffoHs of Miss Crawford, professor of Home Economics department. The new courses will be the most popular work offered in 0. U.

and, doubtless, will be an attraction to many students, enrolled elsewhere. The most important changes, and those representative of the general advance of the department, are seen in the mw courses to be added namely, "Modern Methods in Spooning," "How to Entertain a Lounge Lizard," "Approved ways of getting and keeping a sweetheart," "How to eliminate a rival." Miss Crawford is well prepared to handle each of these courses. Until this year there has been no general demand for work of this kind. But conditions have changed. At the recent meeting of the Board of Trustees a petition, signed by Estelle Heath, Thelma Shaver, Winston Eas-ley, Effie Weber, Orlo, Burnham Gos-sett, Herbert Heritage and George Brody, was presented asking that these courses be introduced in 0.

U. After the trustees and Dr. Price had sent out qustionaires" to the students, 'they learned that not only did the condition of the petitioners justify the addition of these courses, bitt that there was a demand for them throughout the school. Miss Crawford has been granted a leave of absense for the remainder of this school year in order that she might take her doctor's degree in this line of She will go to LeLoup the last of this week. Her studies will consist entirely of practical experience.

As these courses consist of illustrated lectures and laboratory work, it has been necessary to employ an assistant in the department. From the many applicants Prof. Hartley, of the educational department has been selected, not only because of his ability but because there is no one to object. As Mr. Hartley is the most popular member of the faculty, his connection with these courses will, in a way, guarantee their success.

Arrangements are now being completed for a tour of the U. S. by Miss Crawford and Mr. Hartley during the summer. They will visit the important schools of our country and will assist in installing these courses wherever there is sufficient demand.

0. U. is certainly fortunate in having such talented and efficient professors for this work. Miss Crawofrd gives out this statement: "All students wishing to enroll in this work should see-' me at once in order that equipment may be purchased. Students enrolling will not be permitted to carry more than five hours in other departments because of the strenuousness ofi these courses.

Classes will meet in Spooner's Hall each evening from 9 p. m. to 1:35 a. m. No previous training necessary for enrollment.
