At noon today 1880 had been raised

The solicitors have only covered a

being conducted by Knox students in
all parts of the country. The students

the sum of S37, 600 which will be added
to $4,000 they have already raised
among themselves, to form George
Fitch memorial endowment fund" of
$4,000, which will be used to endow
the college library.
George Fitch was always peculiarly
interested in this side OF the college
work, and just before his death he
shipped some hundreds of volumes to
the college. At the time OF his death
eight months ago, he had just been
elected president of the alumni asso-
citation, and was planning to take a
large part TN campaign to strength
en- the library.
His friends feel that no more fitting
recognition of his greatness can be
rendered than in this endowment of
the library, for it was in the literary
side that Mr.. Fitch perpetuated the
life of the college. All his college
stories are based on Knox student life,
and many alumni recognize in some Of
his famous fictional characters, the
counterparts of real men and women
who did some of the same deeds when
students at Knox.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked

of this famous old recipe, improved by
the addition of other ingredients, for
about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened

and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair taking one sinai.
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully dark, glossy and at

who desire dark hair and a youthful
appearance. 1t is not intended for the

TWO GIRLS.

As l was walking down the street,
A little girl 1 CHANGED to meet.
Her hat was trimmed with ostrich
plumes,
Entwined with rhododendron blooms;
Her gloves, they were immaculate.
And, should Judge, a perfect fit;
The stylish skirt that matched her
waist
Was in the very best OF taste;
Her dainty boots, I must concede,
Were very, very smart indeed.
Her face? Well. now, l couldn't say;
Perhaps her veil was in the way.

AS I was walking up the street
Another girl l CHANGED to meet.
No hat adorned her lovely hair,
Her dimpled hands and arms We're
bare:
But heavenly blue was in her eyes
She seemed an angel from the skies.
The dogwood blooms in her arms
But added to her many charms;
And, oh, the sunshine of her smile!
It's sweetness made life seem worth
while.
Her dress? Well. now, 1 couldn't say;
didn't notice, anyway.
only saw her face-no more,
never thought of what she wore!
