intervened which made it necessary

I of their own, "Then when the ex

like a trreat lady from one of the
learned salons of the brilliant France
of old. She was a duchess, pertect
mistress of herself and she passed
an admirable examination. She was
then about seventy four years of
age."
"She was an inspiration,' contin
ued the profVssor," in the way she
thought of others. She did not teach

interest in every boy and girl. Think
of her paying her way to her seventy-fifth
year and studying all this
time."
A friend who knew her very well
through all the years Miss Loomis
spent in Nebraska tells that she be
gan work at the university back in
'86 when she carried courses in sucn
subjects as would enable her to be
a better teacher. She was in her
Eixties when she received the degree
of A. B. at the university. Such an
end had been her ambition since
childhood. All her life she clung to
her ideal lor learning and kept up
her effort until it was realized. This
effort was the more commendable on
her part for the sacrifices it entailed.
When she was in her early forties
she had business reverses and found
it necessary to start again without
anything and not only sustain her
self but care for others.
'Ever since I can remember," says
her friend, "she showed respect and
even reverence for learning. This
was a dominant trait in her and was
second only to her love for her
church. To her it seemed that a
scholar could do no wrong. She took
the greatest pride in her thesis. The
keenest pleasure of her late years
was her work digging into the facts
about the French revolution. This
study was her joy." From the Lin
coln Star.

Announcement is made that the
Prudential committee of Yale Uni
versity has elected Professor Albert
Feuillerat, of the University of
Rennes, France, visiting professor ai
Yale for the coming year.
It was also announced that a gift
of $25,000 has been received from
Mrs. John C. Fennell of Kansas City,
to establish a fund in memory of her
son Charles B. FenneU, a Sheffield
graduate in the class of 1911. Other
gifts reported include a bird collec
tion from Dr. George Hawley and
Samuel Hawley of Bridgeport.
To obtain a new aid for the Yale
song -Bright College Years." which
is now sung f The Watch on the
Rhine," the class of 1899, through
Murray Dodge, its secretary, has
offered $l,o(0 as a prire. The pru
dential comnlttee of the corporation
received the notice and selection of
a tone is to test with the alumni ad
visory board.
Better understanding and care of
lenses would undoubtedly increase
their effectiveness. The British Jour
nal of Photography points out thai so
caled "optical" glass is varied greatly
in its qualities to adapt it for me
many kinds of lenses, and while some
glass is as hard and impermeable as
other kinds are soft enough to be
that used for windows and table
easily scratched or even dented, ana
may be quickly dimmed by injury to
their exquisite surface. Some of the
early anastigmats were very soft and
easily corroded because other glass
was not available. Some glasses are
so susceptible to damp that a single
drop of water left on the surface a
few hours will leave a permanent
mark and a film of moisture wil give
rise to general corrision, showing
prismatic colors in mild cases and a
permanent yellow stain in severe
ones. Even the nakeds of the lens
may not be able to restore the glass to
its original accuracy. Prevention is
the only safeguard, and tight fitting
caps should protect the glass when
not in use.
KATHLEEN NORRIS'S GREATEST
BOOK
On September 27th Doubleday,
Page & Co- will bring out "Sisters."
a novel by Kathleen Norris. The
California which Mrs. Norris knows
so well furnishes the setting, the
unfolding lives of two of the most
appealing girls in recent fiction, the
theme. In tracing the doubts, the
impulses, the dreams, the heartaches,
the development of these two sharp
ly contrasted characters, Mrs. Norris
has, according to one of those best
acquainted with her work, reached
those depths of Insight and under
standing which make for real great
ness. This critic has said: -It is
without doubt Mrs. Norris's greatest
book."

Who was it spread the gospel
that "Knowledge is power?"
He said a bookfull of facts. Knowledge is
power, and your daily newspaper is a sort of
power plant out of which you draw knowl
edge of lots of things clothes, for instance.
The more knowledge you gather about
clothes the better qualified you are to buy
prudently and economically. We believe
that if all men carefully studied the clothes
question instead of buying haphazard on
price alone, as many do, it would be impossi
ble to supply the demand for

FOR YOUNG MEN AND MEN WHO STAY YOUNG
This store made an exhaustive study of
clothes and the knowledge gained decided
us in favor of handling Society Hrand.. The proof of their
superiority was so pronounced by careful comparison that we

comparing the clothes we have ready to show you with what
you've been wearing. One of your spare hours spent here
might prove profitable to you. We'll be glad to offer you
the proof at any time. You can be judge and jury, and if
you don't find evidence that we can dress you better and
save you good dollars, we don't expect your trade.
