st. Paul is just now enjoying the
annual visitation of representatives of
out-of-town curling associations.
Though the number of Kinks partici-
pating in the sport is not as large as
that of last year. owing, in part no
doubt. to the soft weather of the past
week, those who came to take their
chances upon the possibility of chang
ed conditions have not encountered
disappointment. A good many old IA
mIllar faces, always welcome to St

spiel, are to be seen, and, from the
contented expression which they uni
formly wear, appear to reflect the
pleasure of their possessors at being
with us once again. We will all enjoy
the bonspfel While you are here, ladies
and gentlemen, and give you a God
speed when the time comes for your
departure. Meanwhile, we suggest
that as heretofore, during this annual

This ineff1ciency arises in part from the
fact that college women much more than col

We have to admit then, that the college
woman comes out trife overweighted by her
new possessions with, at times, slight
flavor of superciliousness toward the women

training, are training themselves a little

encouraging when the situation is
viewed as a whole. There has been a
thorough thinning out of scrubby

that nothing can be gained by adher-
