Henri Rousseau, a man who used to hold a minor government position in France, was for quarter of a cen tury the joke of artists and art students in Paris. For years in the independ
 ent salon he showed daubs which had not the most distant kinship with art. Some of his famous" pictures were Lady on Sofa In a Jungle" a Tiger In d Jungle" "Nigger In a Jungle" He affected iungles. which consisted of innumerable parallel green lines to represent grass: the tiger was painted wooden toy; the lady looked as if she had come out of a Noah's ark. The unfortunate Rousseau went on exhibiting the same sort of work every year, and the painful thing was that he gradually became a celebrity
 Sinister humoristS told him he had genius, and he took himself quite se- riously. T am a real primitive" he would say. Some practical iokers even went the length of buying his pictures

They do said Dean Charles P.

inclined to 60 into business" he
wrote. I'm the agricultural division,
from three-fourths to four-fifths Of the
graduates return directly to the farm
and those who do not take up farm
work take some phase of agricultural

President Bartlett Of Chicago asked
