will be possible to hold extension
classes in 1867 throughout Utah
In these classes instruction will be
given by the regular faculty OF the
institution and the same grade of in
struction will be given as is given nj

to do regular college work at home
and thereby reduce the amount OF
time necessary to spend in residence
for degree, and makes it possible
for many who cannot journey to Lo-
gan to get practical information of
immediate use to them.
In order to secure these classes for
any community it will be necessary
for those interested to secure a mem
bership OF at least ten registered stu.

More than ever before weight is a
feature which attracts a great amount
of attention from the motoring public.
People who buy the costlier makes of
cars know from experience that, as a
rule, the cars are very heavy and
very expensive to operate and main
tain.
The Marmon "a is practically 100
pounds lighter than any other car Of
equal size and power of the same
class. 1t is interesting to note just
where this saving lies, that is to take
various parts of the car and show
where these parts are lighter than cor
responding parts in other cars.
AS an example, the Marmon 81
motor weighs altogether about 700
pounds. The average six-cylinder mo-
tor of the same class will weigh about
1190 pounds, while, as a general rule,
the same powered motor with IL cylin-
ders weighs about 1900 pounds.
The Marmon "a frame is about the
same weight as the frame Of any other
car of the same class, but the Mar

HILO, Dec. 22.-Scrap iron seems

remnants of better days on the vari-
Gus plantations and villages are be-

lulu, and thence to the mainland, in a
manner that shows how the war in

The steamship Kaiulani of the In
ter-Island fleet left yesterday for Ho-
nolulu with load of scrap iron and
firewood. The iron will eventually
find its way to Europe, it is surmised,
but the firewood will be disposed of
by the Honolulu housewives.
Then there was the steamship Nil
hau, which sailed from Keauhou yes
terday with still more scrap iron.
The iron will probably be punched
with that from the Kaiulani and be
forwarded to Europe via the United

which consists of cattle, will, without
doubt, go the way of all flesh, via the
