Prof. Towar remarked yesterday, in
noticing the snow. storm, that 1T rain
ed rice eighteen years ago This
kind of storm seems to be very popu-
lar in the university, for, besides this
one, at least two others have been
noted during the past week, aud yet
there are those who consider college
education for women detrimental TO
the interests OF Cupid!

Mr.. Elias Nelson, '9S. and Miss EN-
ma Johnson, OF, will be married June

in Casper. Both are too well known in
the college community to need an in
PRODUCTION. Mr.. Nelson was employed
for several years after his graduation
in the agricultural department of the
university, and is now in charge of the
irrigation Investigations Of the United
States department of agriculture at
Caldwell, Idaho. Miss johnson grad
uated last year from the normal de-
partment, and has been teaching at
Elk mountain for the past year. DR..
David Nelson, SO, of Shoshoni will be
present at the wedding.

tended the summer school for the last
two years, will be married to Charles
Pearce June rs, at the home of her

week.
The third annual May day luncheon
promises to be even more successful
than its predecessors. 1t will be held
the memorial ceremonies in the audi

tarded by the Indictment weather.
