Thos. W. Brunk is Judge.
Thos. W. Brunk of Eola is judge of
hogs at the Pacific International Live
Stock show being held in Portland
this week. Mr. Brunk is considered
one of the best hog judges in America
and in commenting on him in a spec
ial issue this week the Portland Live
Stock Reporter says:
"One of the very important judge
ships and one requiring an unlimited
amount of time and patience is that
of the hogs. It is generally conced
ed all over the northwest that the
one man best suited suited for this
work is Thomas Brunk, of Salem,
Oregon. A hog show without Mr.
Brunk as judge would be a sorry af
fair indeed. His fine kindly manner
is a splendid example of what breed-1
ere should be.

friends. Other Monmouth residents

those who stayed behind in Mon
mouth.
Some of the faculty made little
trips out of -Monmouth during the
vacation.
IVesidcnt and Mrs. Aokemian, with

part of her vacation was spent.
Sunday afternoon a jolly crowd
streamed into the Monmouth depot
from the various trains and motors.
The glad meetings and greetings be
tween friends and the happy faces
showed that, though vacation was if
time greatly to be enjoyed, everyone
was glad to get back to work. At the
dormitory each wanderer was given a
hearty welcome by Miss Todd, dean
of women, and a receiving line, com
posed of students who had remained
over for the holidays, was stationed
on each side of the entrance.
Monday morning the usual class
work routine was resumed and the

Library Report Shows Excellent. At
tendance.
The library report for the month
just ended shows an excellent attend
ance and a large circulation of books.
The patrons of the library numbered
2753 and 1351 books were loaned, of
which 522 were juvenile and 829 adult
books. The demand for reference work
in the library was greater than usual,
and showed what splendid help the
"Reader's Guide to Periodicals
could be in gleaning from the stacks
of magazines the particular article
wanted. Seventy-five books were re
paired in the library and 65 were sent
to the bindery for rebinding. Sev
enty-eight new books were placed in
circulation, which includes the gener
ous gifts of Dean Collins, 57 books,
and of Mrs. J. E. Goetz, 6 books. To
supplement these, a group of books
about the war and warring countries
were borrowed from the state library.
To supply the still greater demand of
the library patrons, the following
were personally selected from ttie
general loan collection at the state
library.
