antee required to secure the advan-
tages of university Week" for New
Ulm already repose snugly in the
treasury Of the promoters of this
splendid opportunity for bringing the
University to those who can not go
to it. It must not be imagined, how
ever, that the $500 is all that "Uni-
versity Week" costs. The actual cost
per week is somewhere in the neigh
borhood of $500. The state legisla-
ture appropriated out of the state
treasury some $85,O00 to be used in
the University Extension work and
as between 40 and 80 cities so far
have made application for the work
the cost to the state runs at least
more than $1,000 per city. This is
in addition to the money raised on
the guarantees furnished by the COM
mittees having local charge. If the
committees are so fortunate as to
have money left over after paying
all expenses it will go towards some
future fund for city Improvement,
as the $500 is all that is required
from the city.
The program Of features for the
various days as published last week
in the Review remains practically
unchanged at this writing with only
changes of schedule made necessary
by existing train connections. All
speakers on the program are engsg-
ed for dates at five other cities on
the Southern Minnesota circuit and
in order to fill all dates some changes
in. hours and days have already been
made but the substance of the pro-
gram remains as first laid out. A
corrected program will! probably be
published in the next issue of the
Review.
Moraings of University Week will
be given over to informal meetings
between the University specialists
and the citizens. 1t is hoped that
people from surrounding towns and
farms will take advantage of their
chance to see ami hear some of the
good things that will be measured
out in plenty that week. The after
noon sessions at least can he attend
ed and for them there is no charge
to any one. It comes at season
such that every one should be able
to ge; away from home. Planting
will all be done, practically, and the
gathering of crops not yet begun and
every cne should make it a matter
of personal concern to see that the
outsiders are cordially invited 10 this
get together good time. Give the
University specialists chance to go
away from New Ulm with the feel
ing that no more alive community
than this exists. Farmers and town
people alike are needed to give this
impression.
Twenty-six different persons will
appear on the program in New Ulm
besides the group numbers consist
ing of the University Glee Club and
the Dramatic Club. DR.. Ernest r.
Hoag who visited our city during the
winter and inspected our schools
from a hygienic standpoint will
speak on "Public Health" and along
similar lines will he the talk by DR..
Raymond V. Phelan on Business
and Health" DR.. Phelan may take
for his topic "The Industrial Strug-
gle," however, when he address,
es the business men of the city at
the luncheon planned for them and
he is down for talk on "Civic We'll
fare" at which time he will show an
exhibit of "What the Old World Has
to Teach the New" The material for
this exhibit has been secured at con-
siderable expense. DR.. Phelan's spec
ialty is Social Economics. Another
aspect of the public health and well
fare will be treated by Miss Augusta
Mettle who is a trained nurse and
will present the subject under the
l.,l ,f GI,font Wa1farp -"
Professor John c. Hutchinson who
knows the classic world as well as
the average person knows his own
household will give most interest
inp lecture on "Early Greek Civil
zation." The lecture will be illastrat-
ed and another somewhat similar
TOPIC will be "The Conservation of
AOld World Gifts in Arts and Crafts
by either Maurice l. Flagg or Miss
y Scovel, bctl. of whom were connected
with the State Art Exhibit that
brought into prominence the work OF
the Bohemian lace makers OF New
Ulm. Miss Clara Baldwin or Miss
Martha Wilson, both of whom are m
terested in Library work will speak
on "Books as Tools Of Efficiency
Finance gets it's innings when Prof.
c. w. Thompson talks to the bust
ness men at their luncheon on "Fi-
nancing the Farmer" Prof. Thomp-
son also will talk on Socialistic sub
jects, giving arguments for and
against, and treating of Successful
Cooperation" New Ulm is laboring
in the throes of indecision as to in
dustrial education. Prof. A. V. Storm
or Prof. c. A. Works will talk on
Education for Efficiency" which may
helm some of the slow ones to come
