COLLEGE Dept.
TO Be REOPENED
Commercial Course. Dropped Dur
ing War. VIII Again BE
Taught ut W. and V.

The commercial department at
| William and Vashti college will be
reopened for the enrolment of stu
! dents this year.
In charge will be Miss Margery
| Culp, an instructor OF four years
| teaching experience, who possesses
a degree of bachelor OF commercial
science from the Tri-State college
at Angola, Ind.
Until last year the commercial
department was maintained at high
standard at the local college. Poor
enrolment, due to the war, forced
the abandonment OF the course last
year With peace and prosperity,
with its consequent boom 10 insti-
tutions of learning, especially as
to attendance, reopening Of this de-
partment was deemed necessary by
the college board.
Resumption of school activities
on Sept. will mark the launching
of an ambitious program for Will
liam and Vashti and Aledo schools,
especially the highk school, accord
ing to Ray c. Pellet, president OF
the college and superintendent Of
city schools.
ut is up to US TO boost the at
tendance at the high school in or
der that the college might have a
feeder" declared Superintendent
Pellet. THE larger the high
school enrolment. the larger the
college roster. We must begin at
the right place and then dig.
Since returning only a few
days ago from a summer course for
my doctors degree at the Univers-
ity of Michigan, I have been highly
pleased at the enrolment thus far.
Present indications point 10 a
larger number, by far, than any
here tofore recorded. hope it will
not be far in the future when we
can install a complete two years
agricultural course at W. G. v"

SLIGHT LOSS BUT
MUCH SMOKE FROM
BLAZE IN CELLAR

Slight damage but much confu-
sion and smoke resulted from fire
in the home of ]. z. Sexton, 519
Eighteenth street, yesterday after
noon. Smoke from the celler con-
fiagration worked its way through
out the upper part of the building
and nearly stified occupants before
the firemen arrived. 1t was neces-
sary to use chemicals to extinguish
the blaze.
The fire started presumably from
spontaneous combustion. No blazes
for cooking or other purposes were
in the building at the time of the
alarm. 5 p. N. However. there was
a large quantity of excelsior in the
cellar. Combustion in this sub
stance is thought to have taken
place. Most of the damage to the
building.Swas from smoke and
water.
