Pretty Wedding Custom.

A pretty custom at English royal
weddings has been in vogue since the
marriage of Queen Victoria. A sprig
of myrtle from her bridal wreath
was planted. When the princess roy
al, the late Empress Frederick of
Germany, became a bride, the little
branch had grown TO be tree, and
in turn contributed to her chaplet.
She followed her mothers example,
and when the present emperor of Ger
many was married his bride wore
sprigs cut from his mothers tree.
The practice was observed in the mar
rage of the prince of Wales, and has
been adopted by all of Queen Vic
toria's children and grandchildren
who have married.-N. Y. World.

BeIoiI College.

President Northrop, of the Univer-
sity of Minnesota, in an address at
the recent Yale bicentennial, said:
"Beloit college was founded in south
ern Wisconsin in 1918. Half of its first
faculty of two was Yale man. Its first pres
ideut was Rev DR.. Aaron l.. Chaplin, Yale,
1887. who held the office for So years, till
1855. To-day, as ever, Yale is represented
in the faculty Of Beloit. The ideas OF
the founders of Beloit were the same old
conservative Yale ideas which have so gen.
orally characterized Yale educators,
whether at home or abroad.
To-day Beloit and Yale are alike pre-
sided over by their own brilliant grad
yates; what Arthur L. Hadley is to Yale,
Edward d. Eaton is to Beloit; and if
were seeking in the whole west for a
young Yale l would at once go to Be-
lott; ard l have no hesitation in saying
that there is no UNCONVENTIONAL or indie
pendent non-sectarian college in the west
that is better than Beloit President
Eaton is graduate of one of the de-
partments Of Yale"

was such a great reason for a day of ma

made unprecedented strides toward po-
sition of international supremacy, not only
in commerce. but also in finance. TO a
marked degree business enterprises have
proved successful. An idle wheel in
mills or factories is the exception, while
labor is so we'll employed at high wages
that consumptive demands sustain market
values of all staple commodities. Trans
porting facilities have been unable to
keep pace with the nations requirements,
many complaining of tardy deliveries,
which alone act as brake on CONNER

lower temperature will relieve the rail-
