An Important Matter.

Judge R. W. Winston has publish
ed card in the Durham Sun which
is of interest to all persons who have
fire insurance policies. Referring TO
the fire insurance adjuster Judge
Winston says:
His (the adjuster's) business is to
fit from place to place to place on
the heels OF fire and to search the
court records to find out if it can
beat the policyholder out of his in
surance. He does not work under a
local agent but he works above him
and really scorns him. He goes to
the register of deeds office and if he
finds any defect in your title, his
company then refuses to pay the loss
or else it does what is called penal
izing you. For this reason | would
ask you to call the attention of the
public to the following facts:
|. Ii the deed to your house and
lot stands in the name of your wife
and is insured in your name, you
cannot recover one penny under
your fire insurance policy.
=. If you have mortgage or deed
of trust upon your house and lotand
you fail to disclose to the insurance
company you cannot recover one
penny in the event of a fire.
B. Ii you have no deed to your
house and lot and fire occurs you
cannot recover under your policy.
Commenting upon the above the
Statesville Landmark says:
Judge Winston is a lawyer of rec
ognized ability aud ought to know
what he is talking about. The above
facts will doubtless be news to many
people who carry fire insurance poll
cies and it might be we'll for every
policyholder to see that he is in
shape in this matter.

SHORT COURSE STUDENTS FROM

SHORT COURSE STUDENTS FROM
GRANT COUNTY.
The following students from this
county attended the short course in

The following new students have
been registered for the coming short
course.
Will Ralph, Cuba City, Will
Simmons, Cuba City.
The records at the College of
Agriculture indicate that the attend
ance at the short course will be
greatly increased. Two new build
| lngs will be available for the farmer
boys this coming winter. Any
other young man from this county
who desires to take the course
should send in his application as
soon as possible to Prof. d. H. OTIS,
Madison, Wisconsin
INFLUENCE EXERTED BY SHORT
COURSE STUDENTS.
In Wisconsin, the short course at
the college has created body OF
nearly thousand young men who
are scattered throughout the state.
They are united in an experiment
association. They work through
the year on certain problems and
meet annually and discuss theil
work and experience. But the
most powerful influence that they
exert is in the example they set tC
the great body of farmers about
them. In this way the college and
station are reaching the farmers IL
a powerful way. This means thai
in one way and another there are
nearly a thousand experiment farmi
in the state.

A Significant Nickname.

The unfeeling frankness Of youth

lag. Even the gentle sex may suffer
at the hands of it's brothers. 1t is

girl at a coeducational school-to echo

To see oursePs as others see usI
lest her desire be realized with unex-
pected fulness. For-could mind OF
women ever think it?-the boys or
these schools have nicknamed their
sister students "fussers!" Was the
name born Of the numerous sofa pill
lows and footstools with which the
maidens fill their rooms, the chatting
dishes and teatables and hatpin-cases
and ring-boxes and alpenstocks and
rocking chairs which make dangerous
q hasty progress through the femI-
nine study? At all events, the COM
bination of these feminine acquisitions
has embodied itself in the crisp, mas
culine epithet, ''fusser." Perhaps the
phrase is a comment on state OF
mind as we'll as on method of house
keeping In the opinion of the college
boy, Maid Marian ''fusses" about les
sons, about marks" about commit

,fatalism, and he tags her with the
| epithet which, he thinks, fits her con-
science and her mind, as well as her
room and her wardrobe. The modern
girl, says Youths Companion, must
find a way to free herself of impede
menta, both physical and intellectual,
if she would induce her critics to drop
the Objectionable nickname and grant
her rank as an artist in the pleasant

Strenuous coIIeae PresIdents.

The old ideal of a college president
Is seldom realized nowadays except IN
some small and backward institution.
He was rather aged and always yener-
able. His aspect was spiritual. His
vision was fixed upon the eternal veri-
ties. He was prone to deep abstrac-
ton. He was always Goctor Of
divinity. He had cloistral air and
cloistral voice, and he was at home
only when talking on philoso- .,ev
theology and metaphysics. T ae hu-
manities and the classes we're his
realm and the realm Of his institution
All that has changed, declares Current
Literature, The university president
of to-day is "a good mixer" as the
politicians say. He has the air Of a
man of affairs He may be venerable
but he doesn't pride himself on the
fact and he doesn't care to look so.
He is no longer of necessity a preach
er. He is not scholastic in the old
classical sense
