'OHVET COLLEGE HAS
RECORD ATTENDANCE
Institution Begins Sixty-fourth
Year With Largest Number
of Students Ever Enrolled

OLIvET. Mich. Sept lS.-ohyet
college opened its Gath year Tuesday
with the largest number OF students
ever enrolled In the Congregational
institution. The freshman class will
exceed by 25 the number In the class
last year.
Tuesday Olivet was n quiet village,
Few persons were TO be seen on the
streets OF the serene little illage.
With the coming OF the hrst train
on the Grand Trunk the scene chang
ed entirely. More than one hundred
young men and young women came
in on the morning trains and twice
that number OF trunks, suitcases and
other baggage was piled on the sta
ton platform. Immediately began the
hunt for rooms. As usual there were
great many who did not decide 10
come TO Olivet until the last moment
and these were without any kind OF
accommodations. The Y. M. G. A.
and Y. w. c. A. committees took the
strangers in charge and piloted them
over the college town In search OF
rooms.
The last OF the Incoming students
arrived in town this morning and
there are In the neighborhood OF 400
here now. The college campus and
the village presents an entirely diner
emit appearance than when the col
legfans left town last summer. The
Commonwealth Power company has
placed it's poles in the village and
within a short time will supply Olivet
with the first electric lights the town
has ever had.
Another great improvement 10 the
heating plant which is rapidly being
completed for the college. From this
plant all OF the large college buildings
viii be supplied with heat. Shepherd
Hall has been newly renovated and
makes a modern home for some 200
young women. The college dormi-
tory is crowded to Its full capacity
and many of the young women who
desired to room there have been
forced to look elsewhere for rooms.

horns at the meeting called by the

the insurance men be given a separ-
ate hearing. The motion was carried
and the insurance men left represen-
tative hall. They decided TO discuss
their claims with the commission
later.

The demand TO revise their rates
Is not made by the commission be
cause OF the alleged gross Unequal
tiles existing In the rates between
many points. Many or these are due
TO the fact that the trafiic schedules
have not been revised for 20 years In
many instances and that new roads
have been built and the hauls short
ened.
The railroad men admitted that IN
many cases Il was cheaper for North

The shippers also admitted that.

the present 'jumbled' conditions.
