tests. The breaking OF wild horses
was thing of daily occurrence. The
nature of the work he was called up
on To perform made the life of the
ordinary cowpony short unless he was
given frequent periods of rest. Then
the treacherous badgerhole and the
concealed gully claimed many OF the
sturdy little animals until IL was alb
solutely necessary that each cattle
man have lage bunch OF horses for
his riders. Each rider was compelled
10 break In his own mounts. 1t
therefore happened that fully as often
as otherwise the cowboy was COM

pionship honors. Naturally great
rivalry sprung up among the cow
boys with the different cattle outfits
as TO who could rope and brand the
greatest number of cattle In a day
or same length OF time. In the per-
formance OF this feat much depends
upon the horse as well as upon the
rider as any observant spectator this
week will quickly discern. The horse
must not only be fast and strong but
he must be willing and wise enough
to keep the rope taut while the cow
boy dismounis and ties the "critters'
legs SO he cannot arise.

There is much favor at the univer-
sity this year of having the Junior
Prom, the largest social function Of
the season, at the university comm ons
instead of in the gymnasium as in for
mer years. The commons is a mag
nificent building and would be a much
more beautiful setting for this bril-
liant gathering than is the gymna-
SUM. Though no university dance
has vet been given at the commons 1t
is admirably adapted to splendid func-
tions Of this character, and the juniors
are hopeful that arrangements may
be made possible for the holding OF
the prom ball there this year. The
junior committee has taken the mat
ter before the commons board but no
decision has yet been reached.
In the event that the building is se-
| cured for this event, the large dining
hall will be used for the dance and
the cafeteria rooms for the supper
service.
