I. Mora money is needed at tbt uni
versity for the student 'loan fund. ' This
fund does a treat deal of good among
students who are working- their way
through college, but It is too small to
accomplish As much as Is desired.
The class of 10 Rave $100 to start
it ana two men raised this amount to
171. This has been turned over until
It has dona the work of almost 1600.

i Tha Prisoners' Aid society is making
an effort tq advance tha causa for
which it stands. Funds are being; so
licited for tha, ensuing year, and new
members are sought to make tha work
more generally understood and support
d. The purpose of the society is to
encourage men and women who have
been released from prison, to enable
them to secure work under hotiorabj
conditions and start Ufa anew.
It haa been regarded . as . necessary, 1
the high school inspectors to advance
money to worthy high school graduates
wno are ambitious to acquire it. There
are Insurance companies which insure
students, and thus the 'chances of los
ing these loans would be lessened.
This fund has already done aolendld
work, but with help could be mado to do
unlimited good.
