Do You Want

To ride in new rubber tired Kauf-
man pheton. If you do, read onr offer
elsewhere in this paper, headed THE
Time is approaching" All you have
to do is to pay for the HERALD, take a
guess at the number of votes to be cast
for Sheriff at the ensuing August cleo
ton, and the Pheaton is as apt to be
yours as anybody's. In 1896 the total mum.
Der of votes cast was 1920. In 1898 the
number was 5,631. In 1900 what will it
be? You don't have to guess it exactly.
The closest guess gets the Phaeton.

THE COLUMBIA INSTITUTE ANNEX

In order to extend the privileges of
the Institute to worthy students unable
to pay the regular price, or to those who
may wish to economize in order to take
several extras, from twenty to thirty
girls will be accommodated at club rates
in the Annex. This is an ivy covered
building we'll ventilated by cross
windows. 1t will be repaired and at
tractively refurnished and fully equipped
with sleeping apartment, dining room,
kitchen and pantry. 1t is connected
with the main building, from the second
story, by the art room, from the fl. st
by the recreation hall The privilege of
co operative housekeeping will be ex-
tended to the pupils occupying the build
ing. That is to say, no profit will ac-
crue to the school except for rent and
tuition. A refined, cultured lady will
act as house mother, hence the same
wholesome restriction and safe pleas
ures, given the regular boarder, will be
! extended to the Annex. The same re-
citations, and the same rules exist for
both. The arrangement is in no sense a
charity. The student pays the regular
tuitlon-S60 year-and for the build.
ing, heated and lighted, $40 year. II
is not industrial, for a cook will be EN-
ployed, and such servants as the income
will allow. 1t is estimated that these
expenses will not exceed $40 year. Tt
be explicit:
Tuition for one year ......s 90 90
| Rent for building furnished,
| heated and lighted by electricity 20 90
Provisions and servants hire. -. 20 %
| Total. .........-.............Sl5 $50 90
By furnishing from their farms pro
visions, such as flour, lard, meat, pota
toes, canned fruit and vegt tables, stu
dents may reduce the expense of living
These provisions will be credited Il
their account by the house mother.
president for the literary society will b,
chosen from the Annex. The studen
who exerts the best moral influence ans
by vote of the faculty is leader in he
class, will, the next year, receive
scholarship; i. e., will be excused iron
paying either tuition or room rent.
We wish to emphasize that gradua
ton. class room, SOCIAL, religion an,
literary privileges, will be extended alik
to the regular boarder and the studen
of the Annex. But it is expected tina
only the student Of the highest and bes
aims will apply for admission TO IN
, Annex. In such cases the benefit 3
the student and the school will b
mutual.
