With every member present the
Chautauqua Circle assembled in
chapel hall last Sunday afternoon.
The member, whose application
was acted upon at the last meet
ing, was assigned to class E. A
motion that the names of the two
applicants for membership, SUBJ
mitted by the president, be
favorably recommended, was unan-
imously passed, after which some
time was consumed in desultory
agitation as to the feasibility of
shortening the program, thereby
allowing more time for discussion.
At this juncture the chair recog-
nlzed "a. Ksar Ben" who changed
the subject by offering some in
formation which had been request
ed at previous meeting; refuting
the pronunciation of the word
Hague as given by the bass
drummer, and making motion
(which was carried) empowering
the chair to adjourn the meetings
when the allotted time had expired.

The state carpenter visited the
laundry department during the
past week and put in number of
additional boxes in which to place
the clean clothing. Each pris-
oner's clothing, Immediately after
it is washed, is placed in one of
these plgeon-holed boxes, which
contains his register mum Der.
When bathing day arrives, each
mans clothing Is found instantly
and without confusion. The pris-
oner tells the attendent his regis
ter number, and if this number
corresponds with the number on
the box, the clothing is handed
over to the prisoner, and no ques-
tons are asked. It takes about a
day and a half to battle the 7O6
prisoners, which shows how per-
feet the system works.

opened by member Of class d
with class report entitled
Strangers in Strange Land"
To quote the critic: "An exceed
ingly amusing account OF personal
experience and observation. Mr..
V. d. possesses the faculty of pre-
senting in pleasing manner,
humorous incidents that have
come under his keen penetration.
1t is evident that he does not come
from the land adjacent to our
northern border-his humor is too
keen and evidently he is not both
cred with dyspepsia"
"Minnesota's Early History by
member of class B was a rehears-
al of what the title would indicate
and which is more or less familiar
to those who have studied Ameri-
can history. The always welcome
piano solo was listened to and en-
Joyed very much.
The special report on yellow
journalism" by the ex-president,
presented on yellow paper, and
dealing with everything yellow,
from poodledogs to smallpox signs,
was, however, productive of more
discussion than any other num-
Der on the program. The critic
conceded "l. b A. Rube's" ability
to discuss yellow journalism, but
would draw the line when it comes
to poetry.
A substitute report entitled "A
few Pertinent Remarks" by the
president was next on the program
and dealt wholly with the policy
that should be pursued in main
tanning the standard of the Pier
ian Circle.
The critics report was then called
for which revealed few mispro-
nounced words as we'll as some
grammatical errors, but on the
whole it was inferred that the
meeting was a good one. There
was but one paper on the program
that afforded opportunity for dis
cussion, consequently that feature
was somewhat lax.

The school teacher who had
thirteen pupils in his class short

A little more care should be
taken in handling the exchanges
while placing them in the box in
the morning. Some of the men act
as tho they were in trance, and
appear to know not or care as to
where they place their papers, or
as to how they are laid in the ex-
change box. Because you have
read them and, therefore, have no
further use for them, does not
justify you in handling them as
tho you did not care whether they
we're destroyed or not. Other
men are looking for these papers,
and they expect to get them on
time. But they will be delayed if
some of the papers are placed out
side the door, some carried farther
along and thrown among the dis
carded papers, and still others
thrown along the corridors. just
