UNIVERSITY EXTENSION

How universities and colleges, both public and private. in every state in the Union, are reaching with instruc- ton not only students who come for ths regular college course, but also thousands of other men and women eager for educational opportunities is described in a bulletin on University Extension in the United States, pub lfshed by the Bureau of Education. Dean L. B. Reber director of the ex- tension department of the University of Wisconsin and a leader in the move
 nent to make the university serve the State, is the compiler of the Bureaus s bulletin on the subject
 Dean Reber shows that, while e1e- nents of university extension work ap- pear as early as 1881 in the United States, the real beginning of the move ment was in 1887, and it's most rapid development has taken place in the last half dozen years.
 In 1891 twenty-eights States and Territories reported university exten- sion in some form. Between 1892 and Il 906 twelve institutions organized extension teaching, mainly in agricul- ture and since 1906 twenty-etght uIl- iversities and colleges have introduced the work, while tWenty-one other have reorganized their extension work on basis of separate divisions or de partments.
 Beginning largely correspond- ence. bulletin, and package library work, university extension has now come to include all university service done away from the institution, as well as a. certain kind of work done with in the institution, such as popular short courses, conferences, extra lec- lures, and the like. Many of the uni versitfes give correspondence courses in college subjects and allow credit for such work toward the regular col 1egiate degrees.
 In discussing Dean Reber's findings Dr. C1azton, United States Comn1is- sioner of Education, declares: INC longer do colleges and universitieS eS conffne their work within their owr walls More and more they attemp; to reach all the people of the com. rnunitfes to which they minister. The
 campus of the State university has come to be co-extensive with the bor- ders of the State whose people tas themselves for it's support.

THE DEMOCRATIC
 PLATFORM
Points to Record of Achieve ment in Nation and State That Must Win Even the Ad- miration of the Enemy.

The platform adopted by the Demo- cratic conventions follows:
 The Democratic party of Connecti- cut. in state convention assembled, re- anrms it's allegiance to the tiInehOn- ored principles of Democracy and heartily endorses the Democratic ad- ministration Of national affairs under the able leadership of Woodrow Will son and the administration of our state government under the conscien- tious and able guidance of Governor Simeon D. Baldwin.
 Events have vindicated the peace full, yet firm and statesrnanIike foreign policy of the present Democratic ad- ministration of our national affairs and effectively siIenced it's most ra.bid critics With 9 patience courage and ability never surpassed in the history of American diplomacy the present Democratic administration throughout 1 a most trying ordeal has upheld our national honor without involving our country in foreign complications and has earned the lasting gratitude of our southern neighbors by helping to place them in 8 fair way to enjoy that freedom yet unknown to the Mexican people.
 The record of the Democratic party in Congress has been one of the prom ises redeemed The tariff has been re- Vised, a banking. and currency bill l generally acknowledged to be effective in the persecution of panics has been passed and the income tax produces revenue for the federal government without imposing a burden on the tax payers for they pay in proportion to their plenty

And not only the fruit outlook is the finest in
history but the outlook for the crops of all kndshay,

Today there is activity and better feeling
