HISTORY SECTION
BEGINS STUDY
OF ART

The first lesson of the history see
tion which met at the clubhouse yes
terday afternoon, was most delightful.
The class will study the history of art
this year, and the paper given by
Mrs. Ray Edgar was preliminary to
the actual study of artists and their
masterpieces, to come later.
Mrs. Edgar, in her paper, gave con-
densed outline of the periods of art
touching on the influence upon modern
art of each period. She began with
the Stone Age, going on with Egyptian,
Persian, Chaldean art, and discussed
Greek art before and after Phidias.
Prints were shown to the class illustra-
tive of the subjects and the whole
made up delightful period of study.
The attendance was good and some
new members have joined the section.
Mrs. l.. D. Jacobs presided.

Attendance Hits
 700 Mark at U. of 4.

University. July 25.-(special)'- The enrolment of the second session of the summer school has passed the widest expectations and has now reached the 700 mark. University authorities thought last Saturday would be the last day that many peo- pie would register, but Monday has found the registers office crowded to such an extent that the number has risen very rapidly.
 It has been necessary to open new classes and divide many others into new sections during the summer school and 1t seems that other classes will have to be opened to take care of the large student body.
 Orders for books to take care of the large classes have been tele- graphed into various companies and the books are arriving on every mail.
 A number of strong educational courses are to be given by Dr. King in order to meet the pressing need of the many teachers who have come for the last of the summer pr. King was scheduled to give cer- tain courses but he Is doing more than he expected in order that no one will have to take work which they do not desire.

L0RENz DENIES THAT
HYPN0TISM IS OF A
MYSTERIOUS INFLUENCE

DR.. Henry George Lorenz, the
noted American hypnotist who is
playing this week at the Crystal
opera house with his vaudeville
road show, when asked regarding
hypnotism being mysterious
power of one person over another,
stated there was nothing really
mysterious about hypnotism." at
is merely an application of the laws
of mental suggestion and that no
one could be hypnotized against
their Wilt is in truth a demon
stration of scientific theories.
Everyone practices hypnotism, or
mental suggestion as it might bet
ter be called, to a certain extent.
Consciously or unconsciously you
utilize mental suggestion when you
wish to influence people for some
purpose-as to buy your goods or
come to your way Of thinking.
Contrary to popular belief. peo-
pie of weak wills or sluggish men,
tality are not good subjects for my
hypnotic work on the stage. To
put a persons mind into the hyp-
motto state the subject must work
with the operator. must concern
trate his mind and work willingly
following the line of thought sug-
gested by the hypnotist.
There are great possibilities for
hypnotism outside of the theater.
1t Is now used in the leading hos
pitfalls of the United States and
France In the practice Of medicine
and minor surgery, and its useful
ness in this field is being widely
extended. 1t is especially helpful
in operations where the admins
tration of an anaesthetic might
prove harmful"
Although DR.. Lorenz is conceded
one of the most eminent hypnotists
in the country, and his knowledge
sought for many lecture and
treatise, he has hit upon a novel
plan for using his skill--that Of
furnishing laughter for theater-
goers, which he says is a better
medicine than most times given
patient-laughter and cheerfulness
will do much to make health.

HATS.

HATS.
Men and boys wear hats for per-

them because they think they make
them look better. witch sometimes
they do.
Men buy their hats In a hat store
vile ladies' get theirs in millinery
shop, to sound more Expensive. witch
1t Is. Wen a man buys a hat he
tries it on and IL he likes 1t he takes
1t, but Wen a lady buys a hat she
tries it on and weather she likes 1t
or not she tries on about 10 more
and then she don't know witch one
to take and often don't. Mems hats
ony have few shapes. but there is
no shape ladys hat cant be and
often is.
Nuthing looks funnler on man
than too big of n hat exsept a too
small of a one. The ony thing that
makes a too small of hat look
funnier is Wen it blows off. All
hats that blow off look funny es-
peshily wen they blow off Of bald
heads, on account OF making 2

Hats make men bald hedded but

WALToN's VISIT TO A CAFE.

CHAPTER ).
What shall we do tonight? z"
Edgar Walton said to his friend
from the west, whom he was enter
tanning for a few days. "rhe thea
ter again? ?"
If you don't mind, Walton, let's
go to that cafe, the Palace Garden.
I'd like to see that dark haired girl
dance again"
BE careful, Norris. Don't lose
your heart to one of that sort, even
il she is pretty. ! hoped you and
Gladys Rhodes would"

thought match making was WON

IAN right! But don't be foolish,
Tom. You're too good a fellow to
get taken in by cabaret girl"
Aren't they decent, these cabaret
girls? Some of them?'
"Oh, l guess they are decent
enough, but they aren't the sort a
fellow marries. They're after the
money every time
"They can't live on air. poor
things!'
Careful, Tom. Pity is akin to
love, you know, to quote some i'm
mortal bard"
Norris pulled out his watch and
looked at it. An eagerness invested
his tone:
4 Don't go If you don't want to,
Edgar. But l thought / would drop
9around and watch her dance"
Walton assented readily enough
to accompany his friend. He was i
loving young man, and was
really bit amused that Tom Nor
: ris, ranchman, should have been
intrigued with a dancer in a cheap
cabaret. Edgar knew that Tom
had been too busy since he left
college and taken over the care or
an inheritance left him by bache-
lor uncle, to see much of the oppo-
site sex. Then, too, his ranch was
lies from any town out west.
Business had brought Norris to
New York. A call on Walton, who
had been in the same class in col
lege, had resulted in an invitation to
remain q few days, share Walton )
bachelor quarters, and incidentally
"do the town"
