INSTITUTION GETS AID.
Memorial University Pleased Over 8.
o. v. Encampment's Attitude.
1o,,l,hllco1al

Special to Times-Republican.
Mason City, Aug. 31-At the ma
tional encampment of the Sons of Vet
erans which closed last week in Nj
agana Falls, "a movement was set on
foot, which will doubtless mean great
things for the future of the Memorial
University of this city, which was
founded by the Sons of Veterans as
monument ito the heroic men and
women of the civil war. The per capita
tax question, which was agitated for
the flrst time this year at the national
encampment, was not put to a vote,
but the encampment WAS favorably
impressed with the proposition, and
will consider it definitely at the next
.encampment. Some definite work along
the Lines of aiding the infant univef-
sity, was accomplished however. Inc
encampment voted a sum of $1,000 TOR
the school this year, and the various
divisions pledged over $1,000 addition
al Then too, the w. r. c. gave SOU.
This means total of over $1,000 for
the school this year, sum which
seems munifice.nt indeed to the school
after several years of almost poverty.
DIR. W. j. Patton, president of the Me-
mortal University, has been invited to
attend the grand eneampment of the
W. r. G. in Toledo, O., and will be
there during this week. This is an
honor never before extended to any
member of the S. o. V. 1T is under
stood to mean that the w. r. G. will
aid further in the work of charging
the scope and field of influence of the
local. school

Classification for New Term Will Be.
gin in a Week.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, Aug. 31.-Scarcelya week re-
mains before the classification of the
students for a new term at the college.
will begin. Already students are be-
ginning to arrive, and the campus is
taking on signs of life. The tall grass
which covered everything during the
summer, has been moved and gen.
eral cleaning up Is in progress. The
returning students find that many inn
provements have been made during
their absence. Chief among these is the
removal of the "dinkey station" to Its
new site, back of Morrill, hall, and its
enlargement to meet the growing needs
of the postoffice and book store.
Another much needed Improvement
is the new brick station which the
electric railway company is erecting at
the central campus station. There are
a number of new sidewalks, too, and a
substantial addition to the campus has
been made by seeding down the space
between Central hall and Engineering
hall
