REGISTRAR BARNARD
BACK FROM CALIFORNIA
Met Many State College Men and
Women and Hears Much Praise
for the Institution

Frank T. Barnard, registrar of the
State College, has just returned with
his family from a two-months' winter
trip to California. He and Mrs. Bar
nard report having had most en-
joyable trip south. Mr.. Barnard says
that while away he met number of
State College, who are having sue
cessful careers.
THE type of education given by
the State College is a success" said
Mr.. Barnard. Every w. S. G. gradu-
ate whom | met is succeeding. There
are many of them in California and
they are making their mark. Take
for instance DR.. r. f. Nader, now
assistant director of university ex-
tension in the University of Califor-
MIA. He is leader in the develop
ment of that work into a great insti-
tuition itself, popularizing the Uni
yersity by reaching thousands of peo-
pie. His ability as an organizer and
public speaker began and discovered
here at the. State College, is now the
means of his making good on a large
job. And there are plenty of other
cases. Sam Il. Hunting, now at the
head Of the Pacific Pumping con-
pany of San Francisco, owes to the
college his capacity to stick to II
through hard struggles till success
came, Guy S. Sargent, now filling a
most important position in the Fed
eral Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
received his start here. Prof. Ebert
A. Kincaid, who took his degree in
years ago, is winning recognition as
member of the faculty of economics
in the University of California
met or learned of between 80 and 40
of our men and women while away.
Their spirit of work and fight, to-
gether with the intensely practical
training given them at w. S. c., is
enabling them to win their way in all
ranks.
Our thrip covered most of Cali
fornia and as far south as the Mex
lean line. l made it a point to visit
all of the universities of the south.
While some of these institutions have
great deal of money at their dis
posal, l did not visit any with bet
ter college spirit than ours. l was
particularly interested in the regis
trars' offices and found our COM
pares favorably with all Of them as
far as methods are concerned.
81 saw some of our students while
away and it was treat to come
across one of them so far away from
home. Each and every one of them
was counting the days until he could
return to the State College.

Griffith's latest screen production,
which comes to the Grand Theatre
next Monday, March 10, for two days,
with daily matinee is not war spec
tacle, not battle picture, but beau
tiful love story founded on war
events. 1t is a picture of the lilies
OF France thrown against the red
flames of war, for tremendous battle
scenes made on the west front under
the auspices and direction of the
British war office are used as the
background for the romance.
Through the cooperation of the
British and French war offices, I'M
der the direction of Premier Lloyd
George of England, Griffith and his
visiting any of the front lines, priv
liege accorded to no other civilians.
through the splendid cooperation of
the allies, Hearts of the World
shows the most thrilling war scenes
ever thrown on a screen, with miles
OIL belching cannon, millions OF
marching soldiers, thousands OF
charging cavalry, tanks, fleets of air
planes, gas and flame projectors in
action, and all the latest innovations
OF war.
Griffith and his company, which
included Dorothy Gish, Lillian Gish
and Robert Heron, were frequently
within range of the big German guns.
On II different occasions they were
under direct bombardment, but sue
eeeded in escaping without injury,
though at times the danger was
great.
This masterpiece is accompanied
ny the original musical score, and is
prayed by the organization own mu-
Siclans. Reserved seats for both
evenings are on sale at the Corner
