The chapel for last week was held
on Tuesday instead of Friday. The
reason for this change was on &C

the entire assembly after which Miss
Perneal Jane French gave an inter-
esting address. She told of the high
schools she had visited en- route to
Blackfoot, and of the work they were

she was here. In this part of her
talk she gave examples of young
people who had attended the uni
versity and of the splendid work they
were doing. She gave the prices of
living and the amount of money it
takes to keep a student for a month.
This talk was much appreciated by
all, and was no doubt the best of the
year.
