 Four bulldogs, in stone, are to eerve as mbols of undergraduate life. One with wrinkled brow wears Yirnmed spectacles;s another with wrinkled face has a football players helmet, another a soldiers cap, and the fourth wears cap and gown. On an entrance arch is a rose, a thistle, a shamrock, and an elm, the last named for New Haven. A square, compass, level and plumb have been found else- where.

Edwards, Nathan Hale, Noah Webster John c. Calhoun, former President : Arthur T. Hadley James Gambel . Rogers, architect of the buildings, and several of those who had charge of / divisions of the construction. Inscrip- tions are found in many places. That : beside Nathan Hale is T wish to be , useful, q quotation from one of his sayings. Chief Justice Taft is the only z living man to have a gateway named
 after himself. A group of figures in working clothes with pick and shovel symbolize the Yale men who worked
 on the buildings.
 Makes Historical Record e According to George Nichols. the i resident architect, the purpose of fill- Z ing the hooks in the building with figures is to make an historical record that can be read by all who care to : take the time and trouble.
 The window panes in the rooms : have old poctures burnt into them. H. ' frustrating student life and incidents and these have already been described to some extent through publications. But the carvings are now coming to attention of those who visit the build-

HUGHES TO BE SECRETARY
OF STATE.

Marion, Ohio, Dec. 27.-After
weeks of consideration and con-
sultation, President-elect Harding
is nearing decisitA on several Of
his most important cabinet APP
pointments.
It may be said authoritatively
that so far no such decision had
been made and that any sugges-
tons he may have dropped on the
subject have been Of a tentative
and indefinite nature. It is equal
~ certain, however. that in his
talks here with leaders in many
walks Of life. he has indicated
clearly what men are uppermost
in his mind and he asks for ad-
vice on the makeup of his official
family.
Those who have discussed the
question with him intimately be-
lieve that appointments under
very serious consideration in
clude the following:
Charles q. Hughes, secretary Of
state.
Charles g. Dawes Of illinois,
secretary Of the treasury.
John w. Weeks Of Massachus-
etts, secretary Of the navy.
w. H. Hayes Of Indiana, post
master general, or secreary Of the
interior.
Henry Wallace Of Iowa. secre-
tarv Of agriculture.
Herbert Hoover Of California,
secretary Of labor.
Harry M. Daughtery, attorney
general.
How many Of these actually
will be given the places for which
they now are most prominently
mentioned is q question that even
Mr.. Harding himself is not yet
prepared to answer. Already
several shifts have been made in
his tentative appointment slate, ~
he has worked his wsv towards a
balanced and harmonious cabinet
and other changes are expected
before the lest decision il made.

the places mentioned the presi-

HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT FOR
OUTSIDE MUSIC STUDY.

Upon the recommendation Of
the Louisiana Music Teachers
Association, the State Board Of
Educ ation is granting high school
credit for work done outside OF
school. This privilege is enjoyed
by children living in other Sec
tions of this country. It carries
with it the assurance that the
child s musical education is in the
hands of a competent teacher /;
that the unsteady gifted child
will have an opportunity to get a
high school education and the
special training that is essential
at that time, and that he has a
fair chance to do justice to both.
All students Of our high schools,
who are studying instrumental
music, should arrange their high
school work to conform with that
suggested by the State Boarc of
Education.
