states and four foreign countries have
also sent students. The attendance of
those from outside Wisconsin is as fol-
lows: Illinois l3, Iowa 4, Minnesota
and Michigan each, Colorado, Ohio,
Texas, and California, each. There
are six foreigners enrolled, including
three from England, and one each from
Japan. India and Panama. The classes
are notable this year for the enthusiasm
and earnestness of the young men from
the country, who are at the university
determined to make the most of this
opportunity to secure special training

Gown upon her bed, in an agony Of

Never in all her future life, perhaps,

has been forgotten
She was so full Of hopes the night be-

was too good and too kind to pass by
one little girl that tried to be good, and
so with trusting spirit and hopes that
were high, she hung up the little stock

would bring her Maybe somehow she

A rush of applicants for naturaliza-
ton papers in Wisconsin is now ex-
pected throughout the state owing to
the adoption at the recent election of
the constitutional amendment which
will prohibit foreigners, not naturalized,
to vote. The law does not become OPP
erative until 1912, but after that year a
man who is not full citizen will not
be permitted to vote, and as a result of
the law, there will probably be big
demand for naturalization.
