"Boil until tender" is what all the

Boiling makes most anything tender,

And that's precisely what boiling does
to your clothes.
Makes the fibre tender. Then you

No hot water, no boiling, in summer

Short Course Students
Successful On Farms

On November II, 142 new students
had registered for the Short Course
of the College of Agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin, or II more
than on the same date last year
Final registration does not close
until November 80, by which time 1t
is expected that $50 students will be
enrolled. This will include the
second year men who have returned
to complete their course.
Every year the employment office
of the College of Agriculture re-
ceives about 800 requests for men,
to work at salaries ranging from
SIS to $500 per month, but not one
half of these positions can be filled.
Not only is the graduating class too
small but many of the students
realize that there is larger field
with a greater financial income in
returning to their home farms. The
President of the American Guernsey
Cattle Club, the President of the
Wisconsin Livestock Association,
and prominent farmers and breeders
of the state, received their training
in the Short Course. At the present
time men from all over the world
are in attendance.

The dance given by the members
of the Auditorium Orchestra at the
Opera House last Friday had a
disappointingly small attendance,
but in spite of this fact the players
furnished excellent music and lots
of it for their few patrons. The
small patronage was undoubtedly
due to the fact that there were
other attractions in the city that
evening, notably the Improvement
League Midway" at the Normal,
which drew big crowds. The Aud
itorium Orchestra players donate
their services to the Opera House
and the Opera House patrons
heartily appreciate their playing
and it is certain that the orchestra
will have a good patronage at any
affair they may undertake if they
would be a little more careful in
choosing their evenings.
