John Carter has been elected to
the editorship of the University pa

success of University Life.
Because # the kind of work. and
the amount to be done, and because
the University is no place for dis
clphning boys and girls, the students
have gotten the presidents consent
TO organize a student body next year.
Two members from each class have
been appointed to study up on the
subject, for it is the manner of dis
cipline in all the leading colleges of
tho country. 'Tis nothing more than
pride in behaving.
\ department of household eco
Monies is being established for the
fall term in the university, over
which is to be placed one of the best
instructors in the land Economics
have always had a strong place in
boys work, now it is being realized
that it plays a strong part in the
lives Of both boys and girls. If it
were possible to make the study of
chemistry more attractive, the addi-
ton Of economies for the home
would do it, for the backbone Of it is
chemistry, which is more and more
looked upon as a culture study. Prof.
Guild, head of chemistry in the uni
versity says it insists upon a student
being accurate, exact, honest cleanIy
and being n clear logical thinker all
Of which are real elements in Gull
ture- Today where hundreds of chem
lists are employed in railroads, man
ufacturies, and other lines of every
day living, there was but one years
ago Chemistry is the backbone of
mining AMI agriculture, as it is of
the kitchen on which all depend for
food.
Prof. Otis of the language work
assures inquirers that the modern
languages are more and more desir-
Cd by the men and women who at
tend the university. That more and
more are they feeling the need of a
practical use of Them and now Ger
man, French and Spanish are avail
able for all. The university gradu-
ate who understands Spanish, should
find ample work in the schools of
this state. In the past the mining
and agriculture of the university have
received more attention, because they
were naturally first, owing to the
conditions Of the state Many will
be surprised to know that few states
have a better faculty, if any for
every department that makes for the
best Arizona wants. In the botani-
cal department Grace Wadell of
Tucson was found busily finishing a
herbarium of fifty native plans, on
which she viii receive credits for her
years work. The flowers, with
bloom and root had been pressed
most carefully and fitted to a card
TO which they We're held by strips of
paper The work of an artist Ari-
zona's plants are rare-and called
classical by other states.
