The first term of the summer
school ended last Friday. All the
professors expressed satisfaction
with the work Of the student body
for the past term. The boGs have
become acclimated to the favorable
weather conditions here, a1d all
have started the new term with re
newed efforts to continue their
work. The intense heat in Boston
and reports of the agreeable wealth
or in Ellsworth are factors which
lured several of the students at Bos-
ton to transfer here for the second
term.
Final examinations were not re
quired from the following students,
in the subjects stated, because of the
high standard of work throughout
the term: J. j. Shields and A. e.

on Unemployment; Causes ana
Remedies and have been much I'M
pressed with the clear-cut character
OF your proposals for American pro-

to find such a Well-sustained paper

as the conclusion to a years work.

be very proud to have the thesis in
the library as a model and example

opposition to the wishes of the
