NORMAL GREENHOUSE.
Bulbs Are Being Planted for Spring
Blooming.

Under the able supervision of
Professor Hochbaum the southern
part of the Normal grounds, which
had never been in keeping with the
rest of the surroundings, is taking
on forms of beauty that will make
the campus easily the best one in
the state.
The central spot of the new i'm
provements is the $1,000 green
house. which is 100 by IS, and is
built on strictly modern plans. A
broad walk will extend from the
greenhouse north to the Normal
building and south through the
school gardens and out to Nine
teenth street. Care will be taken
that the stables are screened by ju-
dicious use of shrubbery, and an
artistic grouping of flower beds will
add to the general effect. At pres
ent 10000 bulbs are being planted
for spring blooming. Flowers that
are at their best in the fall and
spring are chosen, as much as possi-
ble for all the beds.
There are forty acres belonging
to the Normal grounds. The green
house and the nursery will be of the
utmost use in propagating shrubs
and flowers for the beautifying of
these acres. The greenhouse is to
be the school conservatory.

Why ! Lost
My Jcb
Reasons Why Thousands Like Ne
Cannot Satisfy Their Employers.

Il believe my fate is not unlike that OF
thousands of other workers who daily
lose their places for reasons they do noe
know, and probably would not believe.
When their last pay envelope comes
along, it is usually Your services no
longer required" II the truth were
known, the reason for their unceremo-
nious removal would probably be that
their usefulness was destroyed because
Of some mental worry, bodily ailment, or
general indispOsi;ion. These things. as
we all know, are the most fruitful causes
of failure in all walks of life The bat
tie OF Waterloo was lost because OF a
headache. In this quick age our minds
must be clear. rapid. active, and free
from outside influence or worry, or else
we go down to failure with the thr0ng
of "fioaters' who go from one place Of
employment to another. giving no salts
faction TO others or to themselves, con-
stantly growing older and less useful,
with no ambition, no viii power and TO
hope.
Every man requires from every other
man the best that is in him. But no man
can use or get the best that is in himself
until he is first free from all fretful in
dispositions and worries.
That was my trouble I was full OF
troubles. That's why I lost my Job Nv
stomach in the first place was always out
Of order, and l was worrying about il.

There are thousands like me- going

tic manners, and Tepulsive atmospheres.
No employer wants such mems services.
Take my advice. A healthy stomach is
half the battle, for it keeps your mind
clear and your face rosy I have

ONE LETTER WITHHELD.
BrOwnsOn's Reasons for Resigning
said To BE Suppressed.

There is much angry murmuring in
naval circles and among Congressman
over what Is regarded as the unfair treat
ment accorded TO Rear Admiral Brown
son in connection with the publication of
the correspondence bearing on MS resig
nation from the Office Of Chief OF the
Bureau of Navigation
II IS alleged that an important letter
written by Admiral Brownson. setting
forth his reasons for believing that the
assignment of a naval surgeon to COM
mand the hospital ship Relief has been
withheld. This is the letter upon which
Admiral Brownson depended TO sustain
his stand. Application for this letter at
the White House was met By giving TO
the press, copies Of Admiral Brownson' s
resignation, which is said TO be an en-
tirely separate communication.
Two letters OF President Roosevelt to
Secretary of the Navy Metcalf. bearing
on the controversy over the command of
the Relief, were made public on Sunday
night, and were printed in newspapers
Monday morning In one Of these the
President condemned Admiral Brownson
severely. Application at the White House
Monday for copies Of Admiral Brownson's s
letter, stating his reasons for opposing
the view of the President and Surgeon
General Rixey, were met with the state
ment that the Brownson letter had no
bearing on the question at issue. and no
occasion existed. therefore. for making
IL public. These statements were repeated
throughout the day.
Late in the afternoon. however. Admi-
raj Brownsons letter Of resignation was
furnished, with the explanation that il
had been inadvertently omitted from the
correspondence given out the night be-
fore, in which Admiral Brownson's side
was not presented. Friends of Admiral
BrownsOn are Of the opinion that there
is another letter. and are asking whv il
is suppressed.
Persons who have looked up the records
take issue with President RooseveIt's
statement in "a letter TO Secretary Met
calf that the hospital ship Red Rover was
commanded in the civil war by a surgeon.
The records show that the vessel was
commanded by Acting Master ". b.
Wills "a line officer, from the time she
was placed in commission until May "a.
1864, when Acting Ensign Charles King
took command.
Another point made by the President is
disputed also This is that c. ]. Bona
partc, when Secretary of the Navy. had
issued an order that hospital ships would
be commanded by medical officers The
records show that Mr. Bonaparte in
dOrsed a recommendation 10 the effect
made by a joint army and navy board of
medical officers but failed TO disclose
that any order was issued.

Another important provision of section
8 is that circulating notes printed In

request Of a bank, in the subtreasury
nearest that bank In this way the
emergency notes can be taken from the
subtreasury and issued within not more
than tWenty-fOuT hours in most cases.
Section provides that the circulating
notes shall be redeemed in lawful money
instead Of In United States notes" as
at present.
Section s provides that national bank
ing associations located outside of re-
serve and central rasarya cities which
are now required to keep a reserve equal
to % per cent Of their deposit liabilities,
shall hereafter hold at all times two
thirds. at least. Of such reserve in lawful
money. Under the present law Cnly
two-ffths of the 10 per cent reserve is
required to be held in lawful money by
