ALMOST EXTINCT SPECIES
OF MOUSE FOUND HERE
Biological Class Make Discov
ery of Leming Tree
Mice
Three Leming tree mice, an al
most extinct species according to
Prof. John Bovard, were found Sat
urday by the biological survey party
of the university.
“The discovery of these mice was
a lucky one for us,” said Prof. Bo
vard today. “The University of
California has only three specimens,
and our unusual find is especially
fortunate. The mouse makes its nest
of moss in the top of a fir tree, us
ually about 50 or 75 feet from the
ground, and it is a difficult undertak
ing to reach it.”
Alfred Shelten, a University of
California graduate, has been placed
in the field for the University of Ore
gon biological survey. He will gath
er specimens until the end of t^e
summer. The work was authorized
by an appropriation of $1,500, made
recently by the Board' of Regents.
Bates College has been endowed
during the past year to the extent of
$70,000, making a total of $800,000
that has been contributed to the in
stitution.

IS WELL PATRONIZED
- I
700 Is Number of Books Daily

dents, Says Douglass
Few people realize the large num
ber of books which are in circula
tion, among the students, from the
University library. A recent report,
issued by M. H. Douglass, University
librarian, shows that there are ap
proximately 700 volumes in daily
circulation, at the present time,
among University students.
Books on Political and Social Sci
ence head the list, with 131 volumes
given out among various students.
Books, classified under the heading
of “Useful Arts,” come second, with
67 gone from the shelves. Other
books in the order of the demand
upon them, which are popular, are
those on American Literature, Eng
lish Literature, Fine Arts, Natural
Science, American Fiction, German
Literature, History, Philosophy and
Religion, Biography, Description and
Travel, Psychology and Foreign Lit
erature.
These are the books in circulation
among the students only, and do not
include either the books taken out
by faculty members, nor do they in
clude the resume books.
