THE CENTER OF THE
UNITED STATES
size to the center are Red Cloud and
Bloomington. Bloomington is about
15 miles northwest, while Red Cloud
is approximately 20 miles to the north
east The center of population of the
United States is in the city of Bloom
ington, Ind. When the 1920 report' of
the bureau of census is compiled the
center will no doubt have moved to
the westward.
These two items of information are
probably more misunderstood than
any two geographical facts which
should be common knowledge.

Girls Wear Green Hats
The conventional green hat for
freshman girls has been decided, ac
cording to the Purdue Exponent, for
the 1819 women at Lafayette. The hats
are to be of soft green material,
small in size, with a black band and
a bow on the side.
WOULD POST GRADES
The Daily Texan advocates the post
ing of all grades on bulletin boards.
The reason cited is that the publicity
tends to make each one struggle for
higher marks. The system has been
successful in the Texas law school.
UNIONS IN
OTHER SCHOOLS
In the fall of 1913, a few interest
ed students . of the University of Iowa
began a campaign for the develop
ment of an organization that would
be broad and democratic in its char
acter, taking in all of the men of the
university and having for its purpose
the developing of students ideals and
the carrying on of student activities,
which would make for a greater and
a better "Iowa." The movement had
the approval of the entire faculty and
of many prominent alumni. The re
sult was that at an all-university din
ner about 600 men were enrolled as
charter members of the Iowa union.
Officers were elected, quarters were
secured, and the project was launched.
The property rented was an old ho
tel, facing the campus. Furnished
rooms were provided for students at
a very reasonable rate; a "commons"
under efficient management was es
tablished, pleasant parlors and bil
liard rooms were furnished, and it
was soon evident that the venture was
a success. From that time the Iowa
union has steadily grown, and today
has the hearty support of 80 per cent
of the male students of the univer
sity. The ways in which it has been ben
eficial are many. It has encouraged
a democratic spirit among the mea
by furnishing a place to spend their
spare time among men of their own
class; it is a clubhouse for all, re
gardless of class or creed; it has
been a starting place for all new
movements; it has boosted athletics,
and it has developed a greater "all
university spirit"

Where is the center of the United
States? A simple question and yet
one that very few can answer cor
rectly. There are many popular de
lusions as to the location of the geo
graphical center of continental Unit
ed. States, excluding Alaska. "Kear
ney, the Hub City," is but one of
many.
The center of area of the United
States Is that point on which the sur
face of the United States would bal
nr If it were a plane of uniform
weight ' This point is at latitude 29
degrees. 55 minutes; longitude 98 de
grees, 60 minutes, about ten miles
north of Smith Center, Kan. This Is
according to the 1910 report of the
bureau of census.
