STUDENT LOAN FUND KEPT NINE
TEEN STUDENTS IN COLLEGE
THE PAST YEAR - SCHOOL
WORK is NEARING CLOSE,

The Student Loan Find has been
the means of keeping nineteen stu
dents in college the past year. All or
nearly all of them would probably
have been obliged to drop out, but
for this assistance. This is better
method than to give the money out
right. 1t puts responsibility on the
students who feel that it is their duty
to repay the money whenever they are
able. This eXalts their manhood and
when the money is returned it goes
back into the general fund and thus
is kept in use Tor others. Loans have
amounted to $4S9.55 the past year, a
small balance remains in the treasury.
The school work in both the acad-
envy and college is fast nearing COM
Ipletion. The academy graduates will
receive their diplomas next Friday af-
ternoon at the chapel. The commence
ment exercises of the college will be
held Tuesday morning, June 4, at 10
o'clock in the large tabernacle. Prof.
A. l.. Whitcomb will be the orator of
the day. The baccalaureate sermon
was delivered last Sunday by Presi
dent Mclaughlin.
The students are engaged in taking
examinations this week.
Rev. Milton l.. Williams is expect.
ed home this Tuesday evening. He
will come from Indianapolis, where
he has been conducting meetings. He
also conducted meetings in st. Louis
and it is reported that he met with
excellent success in both places.
The new $4,000 school house which
is to be erected here within the next
two months will be located on Center
street. The school will be constructed
of brick and will be fire proof.
Prof. Lawson, Rev. A. d. Higgs AID
Mrs. Shunterman have completed
Iplans whereby they will erect resi-
dences here this summer
The National Holiness campmeeting
will commence next Thursday even

IOWA CROP BULLETIN
Official Observations of Conditions
Throughout the State.

Des MOines, Ia, for week ending
May 26.-The week was warm and
generally dry. The temperature rang
ed from normal in northern to 8 de-
grees above the normal in southern
counties and the rainfall was decided
ly deficient, except in the vicinity of
Dubuque, where 2.59 inches fell. AL
most ideal conditions prevailed dur
ing the week for field work, and the
time was well improved. Corn plant
ing is finished in many localities and
all of it that has been planted since
and shows fairly good stand. Much
of the early planting has been replant-
ed on account of cold weather, weak
seed and the ravages of wire worms.
The fields are generally clean and the
soil is in good condition. Small grain
grass in pastures and meadows, pOta-
toes and garden truck have made good
progress under the effects of high
temperature and abundance of sun
shine, but now need more moisture to
keep up normal growth. Rye is head
ing in southern, ana fail wheat is two
feet high in central districts. lhe

LYRIC THEATRE.

Married Life" a comedy drama,
dealing with a real human interest
plot will be the attraction next week
at the Lyric theatre, where the Peru.
chi-Gypzene Stock Company is meet
ing with much favor and attracting
large audiences, setting a record for
itself over previous years at the play.
house.
In telling the story the author intro
duces newly married couple who are
the victims of another couple, that
seem to take special delight in caus-
ing them discomfort. The pathetic
features are well drawn and the char
acters are everyday people.
But the comedy element which pre-
dominates works out a denouement in
which the couple is shown its error in
a practical yet amusing manner. The
audience enjoys much hearty laughter
and the curtain falls on a very happy
home instead of a divided one.
This production is new to local the
atre-goers and it should appeal strong
ly to the patrons of the popular play
house. It is a gripping, convincing
and PLAUSIBLE narrative and will be
presented in finished manner by the
entire company.
Mabel Gypzene will have full sweep
for her best work as the wife whose
happiness is for the time being shat
tered by the scheming couple. Mr..
Peruchi will likewise win new laurels
as the husband who also becomes es-
tranged in the same time. He will
give the part a splendid portrayal
Owen Coll and Dorothy Marke, two
other members of the company that
can always be depended upon for ex-
cellent work, will be well cast as the
couple that starts things" They will
do their usual high-class work.
Stewart E. Wilson, Alice Delane,
Charlotte NJ. Stanley, Billy Ford and
other members of the company will be
seen in parts that will meet with sue
cess.

COMING TO THE CRESCENT.

Following Seven Days" at the Cres-
cent theatre, a new and gripping
drama by Halleck Reid, author of "Hu-
man Hearts" will be presented at that
playhouse. II bears the title of THE
Confession" and is considered one of
the strongest plays ever shown on the
stage. The keynote of the story points
out the sacredness of confessional
vows with the priests of the Catholic
religion. The story, however has lit
tie to do with religion, but is a strong
tale of heart interest that is never lost
upon the auditor. THE Confession"
is said to be the only drama ever pro-
duced which received an unqualified
endorsement from Cardinal Gibbons,
who has spoken highly of it in no un-
certain terms. The same is true of
numbers of other prominent Catholics
throughout the country, and the play
is certain to score a tremendous sue
cess during it's engagement in this
Catholic city.
