Of an iron safe weighing 80 pounds and
containing $40 in cash which disap-

house near the Capitol The safe was
taken between s and II o'clock, the pO-
lice were informed, while its owner was
at a moving picture show.

robbery, but was unable to tell just how
the intruders got away with the safe.
He reported that he is satisfied, how
ever, the safe will be located sooner or
later, but fears the money will not be
in evidence. The police think the rob-
bers may have used an automobile to
cart away their booty.

position among educational leaders to re-
gard the activities defined In the So
called extension work as being designed
solely TO carry out to the people of a
State the impulses of progress which the
State university Is capable of originat-

he said, comprehending not merely the
extension Of the university's usefulness

the enabling OF the university, through

into its own veins and arteries those
finer impulses of the State which are
necessary in order that the life of the
