Professor and Mrs. Moore Entertain.
Last Saturday evening ten students
or the physics department were enter-
taiued at the home of Professor and
Mrs Moore About 7 : 30 the invita-'
tion to the dining room was extended
In po-try and the places at the table
were shown by poetry in which each
person's name was to be tilled in in
rhvni-
A most delicious four-course
dinner was served, during which the
guests let all thoughts of physics de
part and instead many stories of
Deutchland were told by both host
and hostess.
After this, the guests were admon
ished not to forget all of the more
serious things of every-day life, and so
were set to applying physics terms to
some illustrations around the room.
Perhaps some reader will have some
knowledge ot' physics, ir so tell us what
term you would apply to a young
couple hanging on a half-open gate.
Why. tha( Is easy. "Spark Gap," of
course.
The rest of the evening was spent
In a general good time.
On 'he Geological Bulletin board a
notice has just been posted that the
University or Utah at Salt Lake City
offers four fellowships in inininig and
metallurgy, having an annual value of
675 each. This is to aid Btudents to
carry on advanced work along these
important industrial lines.
