Thanksgiving Recess.

la accordance with the annual Gus
tom long established at the State Uni
Fersity school will be dismissed from
Wednesday noon, November q. until
Monday morning December 9. The
season of Thanksgiving furnishes the
students rest from their work which
will strengthen them for their tasks
which follow and an excellent oppor-
tunity to visit friends and relatives.
Most of the students will be found at
home on Turkey Day" while others
will have chosen to remain at the
university and employ the time in
making up back work. In each event
the recess is welcomed and will be
well spent. The holidays will per-
haps- be welcomed more by the Sooner
gridironers than any one else, for on
that day they will play the University
Of Colorado at Denver and close the
memorable football season Of 1912.
This season has been the hardest ever
essayed by the Sooner team and has
required almost superhuman strength
on their part. Thanksgiving day will
close their seasons work and usher in
a season of welcomed rest for the
warriors.

than that Dr. Wiley had resigned and
that the relations between them person
ally had always been pleasant. No rea-
sons for the resignation were given, he
said; nor did DR.. Wiley outline his
plans for the future.
Rumors have been current for several
weeks that trc- pure food expert was
