are a hundred new hops and skips io

that none of them are hard to learn.
Aftr one has mastered sixteen fun

day morning.
It has been stated that the "Laws" will have opposition at the
rally Thursday morning. The "Comics" are not asleep; nor are the
"Medics," the "Engineers" or the "Ags."
Rally around to the rally Thursday morning and help take the
wrinkle out of the "Monarch s brow.
Interest in the girls' football luncheon grows stronger each day.
The interest is manifested not alone by those who will be able to
be there. The men will, of course, have to rest between the Olympics
and the big game, so they would not be able to attend, if invited.
Are you "Frosh" aware of what confronts you Saturday morn

experience.

EXCHANGES
China leads all the foreign countries
In the number of foreign students en
rolled in the University, with the
large number of fifty six according to
figures of Dr. A. R. Seymour, advisor
for foreign students. Most of these
Chinese are sent here in the interest
of the government. The list of foreign
student enrollment has just been com
pleted after much work and shows the
total number to be 141. The list is as
follows: India 11; Greece 1; Japan 19;
England 6; Russia 6; China 56; Ja
maica 2; Brazil 2; Panama 1; Turkey
3; Peru 1; Cuba 2; Bulgaria 7; Austria
3; Germany 1; S. Africa 6; Canada 6;
Mexico 1; Denmark 1; Norway 2;
Sweden 1. This list does not include
those students from our possessions
which are Phillippines 2; Porto Rico
2; Chinese Hawaians 5.
If the latter were counted in total
enrollment it would bring the number
up to 149. This is not as many foreign
students as there were last year. Just
what is the cause of the decrease in
enrollment Is hard to discover, possi
bly it is due to the war in some cases.
There are less Latin-Americans than
formerly. There is only one Mexican
and he is doing graduate work in the
faculty. Probably the internal disor
ders in Mexico are to blame for the de
crease in Mexicans, it being impossi
ble for them to obtain funds. Ex.
Speaking at Vassar College on the
subject of "Women and Democracy,"
Mrs. George Haven Putnam, associ
ate professor of History at Barnard
College, advocated the rearing of
young girls in a manly way. She said
in part:
"I would have girls reared to be
manly. I would have them trained
in dangerous sports, where their
safety of life and limb depends upon
their physical powers.
"I would have them taught to look
out for themselves. I would have them
discard their hampering clothing. I
would have them learn the ordinary
arts of self defense. I would have
them openly carry guns."
She went on to explain that this
would tend to make women more the
equal of men, so that they would not
cry when they were hurt, but act as
man would.
"Women should pursue the same
trades - that their brothers and
fathers pursue so that by their ex
perience they may gain stability.
"Notwithstanding anything I have
said previously," concluded Mrs. Put
nam, "I am confident In democracy
as it at present exists In women's
colleges, In the women of the nation,
and its increase In the future."
Mrs. Putnam's speech was part of
the program of the fiftieth anniver
sary exercises being held at Vassar

Announcement is made in today's
Exponent of the dismissal of cla3ses
on Saturday morning of this week in
order that the best efforts of the entire
university community can be focused
on the entertainment of the alumni at
the first annual homecoming. The
petition which came from the students
to the faculty has had the heartiest
approval and the sole idea has been
to have a day of celebration in which
the entire university body can project
itself upon the visitors. It is indeed a
fine thing to welcome the alumni at
such an occasion, when every element
has shaped itself into a real time for
a gala occasion. The game, the entire
school open to inspection, the Student
Union dance, and the autumn beauty
of the campus have all blended to
gether to make the visit of the home-
comers most enjoyable. Purdue Ex-

the College of Agriculture has usually
sent an exhibit of live stock, but none
would have been sent this year, for

of carrying back contagion. The date
of the show was for Thanksgiving
