Students Loan
Fund a Reality
Placed in Trust at Local Bank


The Student Loan Fund of Del
aware College is fact. More than
that it is void of the charity as
pect. 1t is a we'll organized busi-
ness proposition. No innovation
Of recent years at Delaware has
been promoted with such business
methods. The Fund has been
placed in the care of the Newark
Trust and Safe Deposit Company
who will transact the business at
tending such loans. A committee
composed of the Dean of the Col
lege, Dean of the Women's Col
lege, Dean of the Agricultural
apartment, Treasurer of the Col
lege, President of the Alumni AS
sociation will direct the financing
of the Fund and making the loans.
The local Trust Company under
the Declaration of Trust will rem
der their service free of charge.
With such business administra-
tion known to the public, it can be
confidently hoped that many of
the friends of the college will con-
tribute thus making an invest
ment toward educated citizenship.
1t means more men will go out
with college work complete. The

1t Is because OF this fact that the

fathering any suggestion for action.
The president. however. heretofore.
has planned that when he presented
the facts to congress Ms ne has
promised before breaking off diplo-
matte relations he would make defin-
lite recommendations But TO do so
II is admitted the proof that Ger

must be conclusive in every respect.
Which step shall be taken is the
main question under discussion by
the president and his advisers while
waiting on Berlin.
Up to the present time the state

notified that all British and French
steamers plying 10 and from Amer

Marine Tonnage.

Displacement tonnage is the weight
of the whole ship and everything
aboard her. 1t is found by computing
the exact cubic space under water, in
Guiding the rudder and p.Dpellers and
dividing the total by thirty-five, since
thirty-five cubic feet of sea water
weigh ton. Displacement tonnage is
now used only in rating warships.
A ships gross tonnage is the cubical
measurement or contents below decks
and includes, in the case Of passenger
vessels, all the cabin space. The net
tonnage is the gross tonnage less de-
ductions fixed by law. Net tonnage
excludes cabin space and machinery

Lord Derby could be very absent
minded, and once on time he walked
with Lord Clarendon, his opponent.
and told him all the secrets of the cab
met. Lord Clarendon listened amazed,
but thought it too large an order when
he was asked for his advice 1t was
not for him to counsel his political
foes. At this intimation Lord Derby
woke up, saying, "Neally, thought all
the time l was talking to a colleague"
He had continued. hardly recognizing
the fact, a controversy he had been
having with other ministers at the for
eign Office. OF course Lord Clarendon
honorably preserved the cabinet &C.
crets. but he told his story against
Lord Derby and made a laugh.

No Wedding Rings Hers.


In many parts Of the world women
do not wear wedding rings, but they
have other signs which unmistakably
show that they are married.
Hindu women paint vertical red
mark in the middle Of their foreheads
and wear peculiarly shaped bangles.
In Japan married women black their
teeth with dye made from poppies.
In most Of the native tribes Of South
Africa a horn ring encircles the top
knot Of the married woman. Among
these tribes unmarried women wear no
rings, wives wear one, and mothers
wear two.
Moorish women arrange their wells in
a particular way after marriage.
" Assyrian Seals.
The ancient Assyrians nearly 5000
years ago put in moist clay their seals,
engraved In intaglio upon precious
stones, on chests and doors, in order
to prevent their being opened. There
were no locks or keys in those days.
If they wished to send private let
ter they would often seal it with a
hippogrif, which fabulous winged
horse was regarded as the emblem Of
secrecy. Centuries later the Greeks
and Romans adopted similar devices
for the same purpose.
