FOOD VALUE OF SUGAR

Sugar is doubtless a food; it is food
of great energy. But we must not abuse
it, says the Revue Scientifique. Why?
Because. according to NJ. G. Bunge. the
physiologist, pure cane sugar is lacking
in lime and iron. Now lime and iron are
necessary to the organism. 1t is better
to take the sugar in the form of legumes
and fruits rich in hydrocarbons. And
what is honey worth? Very little also; it
has the same inconveniences-it also IS
wanting in lime and iron. 1t will. be OBJ
served however. that if we consider all
the disadvantages which. according to the
I hygienists, attach to various foods we
shall find that it is almost impossible tc
get any nourishment at ALL if we want te
J adjust our diet to scientific teaching.

PHI BETA KAPPA ELECTION
1t VIII Be Held First Week in March,
New Plan to Be Fol-
lowed -

lowed. ~.
The annual election Of members to Phi
Beta Kappa, the honorary society at the
"U' will take place in the first week in
March and will be conducted on an en-
tirely different plan than heretofore.
The election has bene made almost en-
tirely on basis of marks but the dis
continuance Of the old system Of mark
ing last spring makes it impossible to as
certain the exact standing of a student.
This year members will be chosen for
their general culture and not for their
class work alone. The faculty will recon
mend a. list Of candidates and the new
members will be chosen, fromthis list
This method is used in most of the east
ern colleges and Is approved by most OF
the Minnesota members.
The election Of Sigma XII, the honorary
scientific fraternity, will take place at
the same time and will be conducted on
much the same plan, but excellence in
scientific work will of course be the chief
qualification.
