"colleges" or "quadrangles"-practically
dormitories each of which should

every class, with a few of the younger
professors.
President Wilson secured the ap
pointment of a committee consisting
of seven of the trustees to Investigate
the merits of the "quad" proposal, uud
at the June (11107) meeting the coin
mittee remitted on "the social co-or
dination of the university," Indorsitig
j Mr. Wilson's plan. The report of this
' committee was accepted aud Its recom
mendation adopted with only one dls
i scntlug vote, twenty-live of the twenty-seven
trustees being present, at the
' -in ne meeting.
What was amiss with the "quad"
proposnl?
This that it cut into the aristocratic
social structure which the dotnluaUug
j element in Princeton had erected for it
I self.
I If, vlslUug Princeton, you will pro
ceod to the top of a street known as
Prospect avenue and pass down It you
will see something which probably is
not paralleled at any seat of learning
In the world. Prospect avenue Is lined
with clubhouses, twelve of them with
handsome buildings, beautiful lawns
and tennis courts and, in the case of
the more favored clubs on the south
; side of the street, a delightful view
ncross the valley to the eastward.
Some of the clubhouses are sumptuous,
comparing very favorably with the
best city clubs. Their aggregate value
' must he much more tbau $1,000,000.
The clubs bouse on an average thirty
; memlters each fifteen Juulors and flf
I icon seniors, about 3oO lu all. juniors
and seniors alone being eligible- Tsrsa
hundred other memls?rs of those class
os cau get Into no club. Prom this
j idea has grown up this dominating
' feature of Princeton life, estranged
i from the university and yet having
i more to do with the real forming of
Its students than any other feature of
! the college life.
No one can reflect for a moment tioii
' this club system without understaud
i lug Its essentially vicious character.
The trouble Is that the chilis neees
BMiily constitute an aristocracy in the
midst of a community which should.

the alumni in various cities. Put he

Old Prlneetonlans got busy and wrote

after receiving a telegram from the
United States Attorney In Omaha.
She Is the proprietress of u bawdy

that her inmates had left her house
and she went to Omaha, where she
arranged for others who were to fol
low her to Sheridan. She was sup
posed to have been accompanied by
a colored man about fifty years of
age but he was not located. The
District Attorney arrived Monday
With the two girls and they were j

Two men who undoubtedly looked

of the winter arrived in town last

do some potty stealing. They gave
the names cf Joe Harris and James j
Sullivan. They entered the- store of
W. M. Wilson Monday morning and
asked the proprietor Tor some gaso- j

of them, Harris, reached over tne
counter and appropriated a watch,

What Three Bushels More to the
Acre Means
IGHT years ago the farmers in a
central state averaped crops that
ran three bushels less to the a i
than they now get. Suppose each
acre of farm land in the coimtrv
were so tended that it produced an increase
equal to that of this state. How much more
money would you have with which to buy the
luxuries of life that vou earn and d serve?
Your share in this prosperity depends entirely
upon yourself. The first step is. to fertilize
your land properly with manure spread by an
I H C Manure Spreader
The spreader that does its work as it should
must have many excellent mechanical features.
Tne apron should move without jerking; the
beater should meet the load at exactly the
right point to pulverize the manure without
too greatly increasing the draft of the machine;
the speed changes of the apron should be posi
tive. All these features are provided for in
the construction of I H C spreaders.
I H C spreaders are made in low styles which
are not too low for use in deep mud or snow,
narrow and wide, with both reverse and end
less aprons, for use under all conditions. The
rear axle is located well under the box, instead
of at the rear. Placed in that position (under
the box) it carries over yo per cent of the load
and insures ample tractive power.
