great university that shall be the educa-
tfonal center of the Northwest Is the hope of the
officials of the University of Puget Sound, which
Is gradually spreading into new lines.
: s5 To let the business men know what Is being
done and what 1t is hoped to do, the university
entertained company of Is at dinner at the
Commercial club last evening.
Secretary e. H. Todd showed that starting
with $4,000 worth Of property, the univer-
sity has paid $4,000 for running expenses and
now has to show for it all, property worth $780,
j 900, and student body running into hundreds.
TheAcolege needs cash. however. Tuition
pays abodA half the running expenses but a
strong endowment is needed. In the near future
a movement will be started for a fund Of $50, 600
for the purpose OF equipment. and 1t is expected
$4,000 OF it will be secured in Tacoma without
an effort
The building of the university into a great
institution will mean the expenditure of about
$4,000 year here by students, and the locating
here of hundreds of families.
The University of Puget Sound merits the
support and encouragement of all loyal Ia
comans.

Whats Art?

Art is not. as the metsshysicians say. the manifestation of some mys terious idea Of beauty. or good; il is not, as the aesthetical physiologists say, a game in which man lets of his excess Of stored-up energy; it is not the expression of mans emotions by external signs; it is not the production of pleasing objects; and, above all. il Is not pleasure; but it is means Of union among men, joining them to- gcther in the same feelings. and indis- pensible for the life and progress. towards well-being of individuals and Of humsnity.-Count Tolstoy
