person and well worth hearing. 7
In different places on the campus there are bulletin boards that
hold all sorts of information, and there are only a few people on the
campus who take the time to read the notices on the boards. There
is generally a reason for all things, especially a bulletin hoard.
ANOTHER STORY
On a bright autumn, morning, the campus of a state University
was filled with students hurrying to their classes. A group of young
men stopped on the walk to have a little "talk," and before long It
had developed into a -conversallon,n which we can know nothing about.
But along came two girls, and because the -conversation" was so
engrossing they walked out around the group of animated talkers, and
went on.
Soon a gray-haired woman professor came up to the group and
stepped oft the walk and around ou the grass, too. Before long a path
was worn around the talkative friends who still remained on the walk.
If you will look at the ground around the sidewalks you will see
that there is no grass and the reason Is because of lengthy "conver
sations" on the sidewalk.
Let the grass grow.
Student athletic tickets have not been bought as rapidly as was
expected, and it is the opinion of some that the general student body
does not realize the opportunity offered by the sale of the student
athletic tickets.
They are small books which cost four dollars each, and which con
tain tickets to all of the athletic events on the field and in the gym
nasium during the year.
For the football season, there is admission to the six football
games scheduled for the home field, three of which are probably the
biggest games ever played here.
The student union committee which had its beginning last spring
and which expects to get busy soon, has no girls on it. It would
seem the girls are just as vitally affected by a student union as the
men.

NEW CLASSES IN
FARM DRAINAGE IN
AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING
TJXL JEWELER
Established 1871 1143 O St.
The agricultural engineering depart
ment has found it Impossible to do jus
tice to the agricultural and engineer
ing students in the farm drainage and
rural architectural courses and, this
year for the first time they have ar
ranged for new classes in each of
these courses. From now on, special
courses In rural architecture and farm
drainage will be given to the engineer
ing students, while a different course
on the same subject will be given stu
dents who are not engineering. It is
especially adopted to agricultural students.

The political dopester can do little
in summing up the merits of the men,
as none of them have been tried as
yet. High school reputations are rare
ly the gage of ability In the Univer
sity, and fraternity pull one way or
the other has little effect upon the
thoughtful voter. Probably the man
among the four who will win will be
the one who is able to line up more
men in scattered classes and concen
trate a vote upon himself by that
means.
Offer Explanation
Various explanations have been of
fered for the lack of interest evi
denced by the failure of more than one
candidate to file In the sophomore and
senior classes. Several men who
might have offered themselves for the
nlaces have suggested that the class
presidency has ceased to be a distin
guished honor, that the most desirable
thing In many ways is the chairman
ship of a good committee, and that
this is easier to buy by staying out of
the race, than the presidency is to win
by going into it.
However this may be, the lack of a
fight will be regretted by most folks
who dislike to see anything go by de
fault, and who will miss the fun of
keeping the anxious politicians on the
fence as to their own views on the
question.
BRIEF BITS OF NEWS
In the second semester of this school
year a new course known as "Graph
ics" will be offered in the agricultural

Agricultural data will be used mostly.
C. E. Breiey, secretary of the Char
ity organisation society, will speak

at Palladian meeting last Friday even
ing. These programs are always In
teresting, especially to the partici
pants, and several more will be given

gram time was given over to a social

ter acquainted with the social side of
the society. At the close of the regu
lar meeting a business meeting was
held in order to discuss plans for a
