A COLLEGE NOTES..

The chapel period on Tuesday morn
ing of this week was devoted to the
organization Of a students association
for the purpose Of controlling athletics,
oratory, debating, and the college pub
err. The object of this is to provide
an organization for the regulation OF
all matters of general student con-
Germ, and to provide a sound financial
basis for these student activities by
instituting a uniform system of taxa
ton. The tax is fixed at three dol
lars per semester for all students and
members of the faculty and it is fig
ured that this will be sufficient TO
meet the needs Of the organizations
mentioned above. Students Of the
school of agriculture and steam en-
gineers will be taxed three dollars for
their school year. All students and
members of the faculty, upon paying
this tax will receive a season ticket
emitting them to admission to all OF
the athletic. Oratorical and debating
contests and includes their subscrip-
ton to the college paper during their
period of membership. This measure
may fall a little heavy on some OF
those that are not in the habit OF
patronizing student activities but il
vii lcertainyl foster college spirit and
having as it does the unanimous sup
port of both faculty and students it
cannot but prove a success.
Professor J. y. Rodeheaver was in
Sioux Falls the latter part Of last

In order to show the amount of mus

through this wheel so that it is
known exactly the load against

are analysed after being saturated

THE Sacramento Bee says: "The
railroads find numerous excuses
for raising freight rates in this
country, but do SO chiefly under
cover of changes in classification.
They point to increased cost of
operation, but are silent regarding
the increase in volume of traffic,
which more than compensates for
rise in wages and cost of materi-
ais. This is in remarkable con-
trast with the railroads of New
Zealand, owned by the government,
which have steadily reduced
charges with increase of traffic.
In that country a journey OF 250
miles, which cost Sc ten years ago,
may now be made for $3.50, or
about half what it would cost in
California. And the public owner
ship of railroads in New Zealand
gives to children free transporta-
ton to and from school,"
