Seventeen cuts, and you lose an
hour of credit in two divisions of the

regard to absences:
"A student shall receive one mega
tive credit hour for each total of sew
enteen absences during a semester;
absences amounting during one Sc
mester, to ten or more but less than
seventeen may be carried over into
the next succeeding semester"
Once a week each instructor re-
ports the absences of the students TAX
ing work under him to the registrar
who in turn reports to the deans. Af-
ter you have slept through several IS
o'clocks," or, after you have various

RUSSIA IN THE WAR.

In these days when the Big Brother
movement is gaining so much favor
in the cities of the United States, Rus,
sia steps upon the stage of the Euro
pean theater of war as the Big Broth
er of Servia. When Austria-Hungary
attempted to be high-handed with
Servia, Russia stepped up and de-
manded that the little country be
dealt with more fairly. She did not
intend to stand back and see her
brother Slavs mistreated.
Germany and Russia have not been
at war against each other since 1862,
and until about forty years ago the
people from the two countries had
gotten along together without much
friction. But racial antagonisms have
been aroused and the feeling in Aus
tria, where are many of both races,
has become very bitter. The presence
of the Slavs in Austria partly ex-
plains the rapid advance of the Rus
sian army, as these people favored
rather than opposed the invasion,
though they were under a hostile flag
However large the big brother act
of Russian stands FORTH it is very prob
able that she is looking forward to
other interests that have influenced
her prompt action. Long has she de-
sired an outlet to the Mediterranean
Sea for her trade, and in 1878 she ,
marched an army in sight of Constan-
tinople, but was turned back from
her purpose of taking the city. With
this prize still before her, it was
well-nigh impossible for Russia to
keep out of the present conflict.

EFFECT OF WATER ON HEALTH
Bulletin by Doctor Mitchell Discusses
Prevention of Pollution.

A bulletin by DR.. o. W. H. Mitch
ell, formerly of the School of Medi-
cine of the University, entitled Wa
ter-The Prevention of its Pollu-
tion," has just been published by the
University. This bulletin takes up
general discussion of potable wa
ter, telling why water exerts so great
an influence on health conditions, and
why it is so hard to find a real DO
table water, that is, a water that is
fit for drinking purposes. Water may
be judged as to its purity by three
methods: Appearance to the naked
eye, chemical test, and tests by the
bacteriolOgic standard. Frequently
all three tests must be used.
A thorough treatment of the sources
of water is to be found in this pamph-
let. There are only four sources for any
water but an analytic study of these
will reveal that possibly only three
are common. AS set forth in the bull
letin We receive water from rain or
snow, surface water (pOnds, lakes or
streams,) ground or subsoil water,
and artesian water. If it were possi-
BILE for us to receive the rain water
without its pollution of dust we would
have a chemically pure water.

ice Often Does Harm.
By United Press.

BY united Press.
Warning against so-called tree
surgeons" or tree doctors" is being
issued by the Department of Agricul-
ture. . Many of these professed pro-
fessional tree surgeons" often do
their tree-patients more harm than
good, the Department declares. A
careless filling of tree cavities and
use of climbing devices and pruning
hooks, which injure barks and limbs,
are charged to the novices or unskilled
professionals in tree surgery.
Just as person is subject to in
fection through cuts and scratches,
trees are rendered subject to infec-
tion by having their bark torn" the
Department experts declare.
