Our Grandfathers wore ~"stovepipe

ever went into the city with other

over there.
1t is said that the going out Of gem

casioned In a considerable degree by
the popularity Of raincoats in prefer
ence to umbrellas. If you observe any
great crowd in England today you will
find in 1t few hats of any kind; it is
in the main a sea of caps. The Ameri-

HAS AN ANCIENT GROUNDING
Dalton, KY, Man Owns an Animal
That Is Aged Enough
to Retire.

: jacksonville, Ky.-Hezzie Sisk of
Dalton is the owner of a grounding
that is now old enough to retire to
private life. About twenty years age
Mr.. Sisk's son, Sam, found a young
grounding pig, took 1t home and that
fall it hibernated. 1t came out next
spring and sOon was missing.
Sight had been lost of the animal,
but about two months ago the same
hog turned up again and went to the
same quarters where it was reared,
and is still with the family. Mr. Sisk
says there is no doubt that 1t is the
very same grounding that strayed off
from home a number of years ago. It
is gentle and seems to have made up
its mind to die among its former
friends.

SEES GOOD
PROSPECTS
FOR U.OF |.
DEAN EDWARD M. HULME TELLS
OF CONDITIONS IN NORTH
IDAHO WITH REFERENCE
TO THE STATE SCHOOL

For two weeks Professor Edward
M. Hume has been visiting the towns
in northern Idaho. He has talked
with high school graduates, their par
ents and their friends, about their
coming to the University. Among the
towns he visited are Occur d'Alene,
st. Maries, Kellogg, Wallace, Mullan,
Burke, Post Falls. Bonners Ferry,
Standpoint, and Rathdrum. He reports
the outlook for new students encour-
aging.
Many Off to Fight
1T is true" Dean Hume said, that
many of the boys who were graduated
from the high schols last June have
Joined the army. And it is also true
that because of the present high cost
of living more girls than ever before
will have to teach for a year or two
in country schools before going to col
lege.
Good Freshman Class
Yet the new freshman class prom
Uses to be as large as that of last
year. We shall not be able to re-
place those college students who have
gone off to the war before finishing
their college course; and we cannot
reasonably expect to have an incom-
ing class larger thar the freshman
class of last year. But our new Gloss
promises to be at least as large as any
entering class we have had in the past.
This seems to be a very .encourag-
ing situation.
T. People Have Confidence
at shows hat the people of the
state have confidence in the Univer-
:sity, that they believe it is worth
while to come here. and that they have
faith in the future of the institution.
Lumber Industry Unsettled
Things are unsettled in the towns
that are dependent upon the lumber
industry. No men are at work in the
forests cutting the timber and sup
plying the mills with logs. And so
when the present supply of logs is
mills will have to shut down. This
is acting as a edeterent, in some cases,
to keep students from going to col
lege.
All Mines Boom
Things are booming in the mining
towns. But then that is not altogeth-
er the best condition for sending boys
to college. Workmen are so scarce
that high school boys are in great de-
mand in the mines. High wages are
being paid, and so many a boy who
would otherwise have gone to college
this year will work in the mines.
But, all in all, the prospect is encour-
aging.
Future Looks Bright
The future of the University looks
brighter to me thar it has ever done
in the past. Our new commissioner is
exceedingly practical man, and our
new president is at once true
straight, sholarly, and efficient. If all
goes we'll with the state and the ma
ton the university will experience an
expansion and improvement in the
next few years unparalleled in its his

DO You Practice Thrift

The art Of acquiring means consists
mainly Of thrift. 1t is in every per-
sons power to practice this art. To
try to recount the values of thrift
would be to try to enumerate the re-
suits of many virtues.
The best start in life that parents
can give their children is to teach them
thrift.
Thrift makes strength. The strong
men in any community are men of
thrift.
Thrift begins to be acquired when
one distinguishes between Iuxuries
and necessities and schools himself to
do without luXuries.
Wasting a cent day wastes $3.50 a
year. This would buy the use of al
most $50 at per cent interest.
The thrifty man does not have to
haunt the free employment bureau or
feed his family on mush and milk.
Thriftiness with money means indie
pendence Of the pawnbrolxer and the
loan shark. Thrift of time enables a
man, if he so wishes, to acquire lib
eral education.

Fine Tribute to Mr.. Jensen.

When Andrew Jensen of Edgerton
passed away last week, his city lost
noble citizen and the democratic party
of the state, wise, revercd and hon
ored counselor and leader whose allie
glance to any party was OF itself
badge of honor. Mr.. Jensen was the
product of rugged Norway, a country
that has given to us many estlmable
men. He came here with few of this
worlds goods, but with wealth and
honesty and industry of greater intrin-
sic value than all the gold in the world.
He was big hearted, generous man,
with a wealth of charity that caused
him to condone and overlook the faults
of others, even when such faults injur-
iously affected himself. AS member
of the democratic party, he was looked
up to in all matters of party concern,
and his advice was often sought and
rarely disregarded.. Indeed, it has often
been said of him, and said truly that he
was by far the most popular man in
the democratic party in Wisconsin.
The popularity was not ephemeral,
but continuous. 1t began when he al
lied himself with the party and contin-
ued until the day of his death.
What he left his family in property,
we know not, for he was one whose
worth was not measured by dollars.
One thing we do know and that is that
he left an example of honesty, industry,
charity and kindness, which will live
in memory long after great estates
are forgotten, and will, in the years to
come, be an inspiring object lesson to
the young man seeking enduring fame.
He will be missed by his wife, his chill
dren, neighbors, and the city in which
he lives. This is to be expected. But
his worth was not localized, not encom-
passed within the narrow horizon Of a
single city, but spread over the entire
state, and the people of Wisconsin will
feel keenlY his loss. -Madisonian.

Large Acreage Sugar Beets.

There are over $50 acres of sugar
beets on the farms of John G. Wilson
& Co. and VIM. C. Wilson & Co., north
west of the city of Burlington in the
town of Spring Prairie, who are largest
sheep feeders in the state. The beets
have been thinned in the rows and the
prospects for big crop are the very
brightest. The plants came up very
thick and are strong and healthy. a
force of some thirty Russians are work
ing the fields and have been over them
the first time transplanting and thinning
the beets to insure an even growth.

Policemen In the Spot Light.

At certain street intersections in st.
Louis, where traffic officers have fire.
quently been struck by passing auto
mobiles in dark and foggy weather be-
cause of their low visibility, they are
now protected by searchlights installed
on nearby buildings, which clearly re-
veal their presence to approaching mo-
torists. The lights are Of the nitrogen
tungsten variety, high powered and
mounted in refiectors. Placed at the
second or third story of a corner build
ing, they flood with a bright white
light the spot where the officer stands.
At one street corner in the west end
the light is mounted at the top of a
seven story hotel. The spot lights were
adopted after several other methods
had failed.-Popular Mechanics.
