GOOSEY, GOOSEY,
GANDER GET RICH
QUICK, GREAT!
MILLIONS IN NEVADA GOOSE
FARNI-WALLING LASH
ED TO THE MAST.

With assurance or dividends be-
yond the dreams of human avarice,
a number of McGill people have
become imbued with the Get Rich
Quick Wallingford Idea, and have
formulated plans for the purchase
of goose farm. Although the life
of the company is limited to only
two years, glittering prospects are
pictured in the prospectus, which has
just been issued by the enterpris-
ing promoters.
Starting out with a capital of
$1,000 or 1000 geese at the par
value of S a goose, says the Cop
per Ore, the organizers anticipate
that their small investment will
place them on a par with the big
moneyed kings Of the country, when
the corporation loses its entity
Those who are interested in the
goose farm figure that each goose
will lay an average of three eggs
a week or 1856 eggs a year. AS
a result the company will have
on hand $4,000 geese the first
year tSatstics show that out of
this number 10000 will be ganders.
These will be disposed of at the
best market price, leaving with the
original capital, $4,000 geese, which
will lay 156 eggs each. By pro-
cess of incubation at the end of
the year the company will have
in its possession 12,5SS,O00 geese,
plus 10000 ganders sold during
the first year. Figuring geese
worth $3.50 apiece, dressed, the
total receipts from that source will
be $lS.S37,C00 The incorporators
figure that each goose will produce
two pounds of feathers, or a total
25. 200 pounds, which, when dis
posed of at SIS pound, will bring
37G,74O,OOO.
The by-products of the farm will
not be neglected The incorporators
expect to dispose of the 12,5S8, 900
goose livers for $7,534 600, the
same being retailed at 60 cents a
pair. The upper and lower bills
will be utilized as buttons, and eel
be sold at is cents each, the
total sum realized being $2S3,555
The upper bills will command Il
higher market price because they
have already two holes punched
There will also be 10,046, 400
goose quills, which will be eagerly
2rabhed up for tooth picks at 10
cents doben. This will increase
the profits of the corporation by
$1,004,640. After deducting the
original capital of $1,000, together
with expenses amounting to $4,000
during the two years, the net profit
will amount to $404, 324955, not
small pittance considering the
money involved in the transaction.

scRlMMAeEp WITH FRESHMEN
Varsity Basketball Team Working
Hard for Ames Game.


Hard for Ames Game.
For the first time this season the
Varsity basketball team last night
scrimmaged with the freshmen team.
The teams played evenly in the first
half, but the Varsity gained lead in
the second half. A hard work-out-was
given the Tigers aside from the
lscrimmage with the first year men.
Two teams of the Varsity lined up
against each other before the fresh
men were met.
About twenty men who are trying
for the Tiger team reported for prac-
tice last night.
With the Ames games only week
away, Coach Brewer is working the
men hard. Practice is being held ev-
cry night. About two hours are spent
by the Varsity squad in practice daily.
The teams lined up in scrimmage
last night as follows: Varsity-right
forward, Cohen; left forward. Parker;
lcenter, Conklin; left guard. Taafe and
Todd; right guard, Castillo and Lever
ette. Freshmen-right forward, Cox;
left forward, Steele; center, Grove;
left guard. Hopper; right guard, Bur-
nett.
Last night the freshmen were not
out. but the Varsity went through the
usual long practice and two teams
Iscrimmaged. Burress was out for the
first time and was put in the scrim-
mage at guard, Castillo playing for
ward. Coach Brewer and Captain
Cohen were absent and Coach Jones,
who has just returned from Michigan,
took charge of the work. 1t was an
nounced last night that the new suits
for the Varsity men will be given out
tomorrow afternoon, when the men
will be picked to meet Ames week

TO MOVE SCHOOLS TO COUNTRY
Plan Proposed to Take German Chill.
dren From Crowded Cities.


BERLIN-Proposals for very am
bilious scheme of reorganizing the edu,
cational methods in the great cities of
Germany are occupying public atten-
tion, and have given rise to very in
|teresting public discussion. Ii is sug-
gested that all the public state schools
in Berlin should be removed into the
surrounding country TO distances not
|exceeding fifteen miles from the capi-
tai, in order that the boys and girls
from the metropolis may be brought
up in healthier and more inspiring
bricks and mortar OF thickly popu-
lated center. 1t is proposed that the
new schools should be erected, as far
as possible, among woods and fields.
SO that the youth of the capital may
be reared with love of Nature.
The authors of this remarkable
scheme estimate that the existing su-
burban lines could, without difficulty,
convey all the school children of Ber-
lin, numbering approximately three
hundred thousand, to and from the
schools situated in a belt around the
capital without disturbing the existing
traffic. Those able to afford it, could
purchase cheap monthly tickets at a
price which will still leave a margin
of profit for the railways. while the
educational authorities could pay the
cost of the conveyance of the poorest
children.
The authors of the scheme argue
that the sale of the sites of the pres
ent schools in Berlin would yield
sufficiently large sum OF money to
erect the new schools, and to provide
the funds for paying the fares of those
unable to buy their own tickets

LET COLUMBIA GROW.

Just as the friend that frequents
the home is its truest ornament, so
the men and women who live in the
town are its richest ornamentation.
II is doubtful if there are many towns
that have the per cent of culture this
town has.
The great number of Columbia S
men and women are of the highest
type. And it has advantages of cul-
ture and education seldom found The
result is a well-built city. Its inter-
ests are clean and moral, its homes
are tasty and refined. There is an
abundance of wealth and prosperity,
little that is poor and scanty. The
moral tone is strong; there is care
full regard for sanitation and health
These things make an attractive
city; they result in beauty and attrac-
tiveness.
Columbia needs not so much that
which is new; but more of what is
lIeady has. 1t needs more men and
women of the Columbia type; more
comfortable and prosperous homes,
interest in the churches, perhaps more
care in the matter of health, and one
thing it needs less of, poverty.
Columbia is building on the right
plan. Let it grow,

LYceUM ATTRACTIONS NEEDED.

Columbia is attractive-a town i'm a
class by itself when compared with
towns of similar size and wealth in the
state. Not only is this true insofar
as well paved streets, granitoid walks,
new and well-kept buildings are con-
cerned. These things merely form a
background for a more attractive
spiritual and moral setting 1t is the
wholesome environment of Columbia
which distinguishes it from the aver
age town.
When it is possible for town to
have college atmosphere where the
best, from a point of view of culture,
may be obtained, it is noticeable in
the life of the people A higher STAN
dard of living, OF moral and spiritual
responsibility, is evident. The churches
and schools combine in a permanent
contribution to educational needs. The
