There is no need for consulting the
graphologist or the phrenologist. Go
to the University Library any after
noon about 4 o'clock. the time lights
are turned on these dark winter days.
Some readers look carefully at the
windows and. determining that there
is sufficient light, "douse the glim."
Others allow, the whole row Of lights
to burn, though they are using but
one. A few-a very few-turn the
button at every place that shows an
unoccupied chair. But most of them
read on unconcernedly, while the light
continues to turn its face to the wall.
Take your choice. Which is your

school know that. The point is, How
are we going to help get It?
Let's start something. The fact
that the legislature does not meet this
year ought not to result in our sit
ting down with still hands as If we
were well fixed and perfectly satis-
fed. The larger the number Of peo-
pie over the state who know that we
need and want an adequate building,
the surer is our chance of getting
it next year. 1t takes time to spread
an idea. Start now!
Let's get our men friends to help
us. Let every student while home for
Christmas tell his or her immediate
family and friends about it. Show
them we want it.
Let's have some plans for organ
lied, efficient work. What's your
plan? SENIOR GIRL.
