Judging by the records OF previous
years. and the evidently increasing inter-

two thousand young persons will start in
this year as freshmen, at the various col

out the country.
In the old days when the movement

Remember that college Is a very busy
place People will be nice 70 you at first,
because you are new. The habit OF haziDg
has taken but little hold upon women's
colleges. But this does not mean that
they have taken you in the first week
as a lifelong friend.
DO not be hurt II upper-class girls
whom you have met do not know YOU on
the campus. They have probably been
introduced In the course Of the first
week or two to anywhere from ten 70
a hundred freshmen, all OF whom look
moro or less alike to them. Speak 10
them anyhow. They will probably re-
call you after a while and may some

WALL STREET NOTES.

Uptown sentiment, conservative spec
u~lators, did not look with favor upon
the rapid upward movement in South
ern Pacific and the steel issues Oh
Thursday. While they are confident
that the business of the country viii
soon be on a considerably larger scale,
and while earnings six months or less
hence la warrant increased dividends.
they are fearful that If the market is
allowed to go the way 1t did on Thurs
day an unhealthy condition will soon
develop. In spite Of this spirit of con-
servatism which seems to be shared
by nearly all careful market interests,
it is believed that the Hartman Pa
cihcs and steel issues win reach still
higher levels within the next few days
AS a matter of fact. careful students Of
values think that Union and Southern
Pacific. particularly the former. ara
entitled to sell at present prices. and
perhaps, flve to ten points higher.
