One article oD My Three Happiest Days" is nota- ble in the unique collection. In well chosen words and clearly rounded sen- tences the little girl says that, being lost in the woods. having to run away from a fire which broke out in their house and watching little boat as the wind tossed it on the waves and finally smashed it, were the most hap py events that she could think of.
 Another in describing ''fairyland" said that it must be place where every thing is as it is here except that the lakes should be frozen half across at all times of the year so that we could take swim and jump out and skate."

Small Colleges Ignore Rule.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Jan. 25.-(Special. ,
Minor colleges In the state Of Iowa have

Nations governing the athletics of the
larger schools and there is a big split
between the two factions.
Last week the representatives of Parsons,
Iowa, Wesleyan, Central college and Penn
college of Oskaloosa met and abolished
the one year residence rule. 1t is under

college will follow suit.
Grinnell, Cornell and Coe will probably
never agree to this action for they favor
the rules in vogue of Iowa, Drake and
Ames, the big Trio OF the state.
II is evident that the smaller colleges
with a large proportion of their eligible
athletic material in the freshmen classes
have resolved to have the entire student
body eligible for the athletic events by
resembling the one year residence rule. At
the next meeting of the Iowa association
this question will be settled BY either the
formation OF a new conference or the with
drawal Of Grinnell, Coe and Cornell. Iowa,
Drake and Ames withdrew TO the Missouri
valley conference two years ago.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Jan. 25.-(special)-No
split between Iowa and Nebraska over the
foot ball schedule is admitted in Iowa City
and it is stated, though not officially that
every effort will be made to close the
breach which exists according to story sent
out from Lincoln.
Iowaw is anxious to play Nebraska this
year and the management will make many
concessions to get the C~ornhuskers on the
schedule. The NebTasEa management is
reported as being peeved because Iowa has
q tentative date with Purdue for October

pI eferred. Iowa offered the Cornhuskers
the Saturday of November -, but this did
not meet with Nebraska's favor for Illinois
may be on the eligible list for this date
and Manager Eager is anxious to get q
game with the Illini II possible. According
to the Lincoln story Missouri will be added
to the Cornhusker schedule in place of
the IoWans.
Following as it does the report that Ne
braska had angered Kansas by a dictatorial
attitude on the schedule, the report from
Lincoln is not regarded as authentic here
for 1t is not believed that Manager E. o.
Eager would pursue such an impolite policy,
especially in view OF the relations of Ne
braska to the Chicago conference taken
together with the influence of Prof. A. G..
Smith of the University of Iowa in the
conference deliberations.
