NORMAL SCHOOL EXHIBITS
AT WISCONSIN STATE FAIR

An educational exhibit to be placed
at the Wisconsin State Fair has been
prerared to show the type and scope
of the work that the River Falls Nor
NAL School is doing in agriculture. 1t
represents in very graphic way what
the school is doing in the classroom,
in the laboratory, in the shops, on the
farm and in the community. A min
iature farm has been CONSTRUCTED, an
exact reproduction of the Normal
School farm and campus, which will
be transported and placed in the ex-
hibit book. This miniature farm viii

ROOMS FOR STUDENTS NEEDED

The Normal School needs a large
number of rooms for students at mod
crate rates. An extensive advertising
campaign has brought to the school
large number Of inquiries by pros
pective students. Vacation jobs have
been scarce and poorly paid, therefore
students are not as well supplied with
funds as usual, accordingly the de-
mand is for rooms at about $3.50 per
week. per student where two students
occupy q room in house with modern
conveniences. This is the price which
has been paid in the past by q major
ity Of students anu there seems to be
no reason for an increase in. rates
this year. Rooming and boarding
rates viii have large Influence this
year in deciding students as to what
school they will attend. Some of the
schools are equipped with lor'nitor-
les, which arc proving att active.
The dormitory at the Superior Nor
nal School will furnish board and
room the coming year at S27.00 per
month, or at about 5000 FER week.
The dormitory at the Stevens Point
Normal School will furnish rooms at
from $1.25 to S1.75 per week.
If we are able to hold and increase
our enrolment the school must, have
available Accommodations at Hates
which will compare favorably with
those in other school cities.
Householders having rooms which
they are willing to furnish the stu
dents will confer a favor by calling
the normal school office, telephone 40.

National Guard Notes

Regular drill every Monday night
Last Monday night, the company
took two of its five trucks out for d
short spin. The Quartermaster has
not made us any allowance for gaso-

IN and buy their own gas whenever
they take the trucks out. The result
is that the trucks aren't used as much
as they will be later when the Gov
eminent buys the gasoline.
