Honest Folks at This Laundry.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., December l.
When Charles Biddle of Rock City, Iowa,
stopped off here for a few days and in
cidentally sent out his laundry he neg
lected to remove twelve 500 bills which
he had sewed in an undergarment for
safe keeping. Remembering the money
he called at the laundry expecting to
learn that 1T had been destroyed in the
washing process. He found instead that
the young lady who does the marking
had discovered the bills and turned them
over to the proprietor. They were re-
turned to Biddle intact and he proceeded
to buy costly presents for all concerned
as a reward for honesty. Biddle is re-
turning to his home from sojourn in

DR.. Needham's Remarks.

President NeeGham, who was In
other part of the building while the bust
ness meeting OF the alumni was going on.
was brought into the hall by Mr.. Brand
enburg. He congratulated the alumni
upon their selection of a president and
gave an account of the growth of the
university in recent years and explained
in detail his hopes and ambitions for the
institution.
President Needham insisted that there
must be close relation between the
alumni and the university. The gradu-
ates, he said were the roots that gave
the university new life. More than 50
per cent of the students coming to uni
versities, he said, were Influenced by
graduates of these universities to attend
them.
You are the advance guard. the re-
cruiting officers, of the university said

This organization is now completed.

ization, but every part of the present

which had perhaps prevented few stu
dents from matriculating. there were
nearly as many students TINS year as
there were last.
What we need is to have all of You
graduates stand steadfastiy back of us in
our purposes. There are two classes of
students to serve in the District. those
who can give all of their time to study
and those who can give only part of their
time. For the last, the courses must
necessarily be made longer in time if
their degrees are to be of the same value
as those Of the first class. Under the new
methods of instruction, students need
twice as much time as they did in the
past and the courses have had to be
heightened May We not favor an adj
vance with the rest Of the great institu-
tons of learning without casting a
Election upon the methods of the past?
I am a graduate of the Albany Law
School of the class Of 90 In those days
1t was considered perhaps the best law
school in the country. But the course
was for a single year. But in advocating
three years, I have never cast a reflec-
ton upon this law school.
