Ten Industri al Club Contests are to be carried on this year. Registrations for courses of the second semester began last Thursday. Eighteen cxurses were offered this semester and an equal number will be offered this next semester.

Especially insistent are the demands for courses in sciences, manuel arts, and domestic arts, and modern languages.

A chorus class will be organ ized on the first day of the second semester, February 9, under the direction of Mrs. Goodwin. Mrs Goodwin was secured to do this work through the efforts of the faculty to present a course in vocal music. The old piano was overhauled this week and tuned, and will be ready to use when the chorus work begins. On a dimly lighted floor, wet and partly covered with sawdust, Monmouth lost to Independence second team, score 16-12, at In dependence, Saturday night. Poor light, wet floor, and an off week of irregular practice are directly responsible for the loss of the game. Two weeks ago Monmouth won from the winners of this last game on the home floor, easily, and by a very one sided score. This is the last of a series of three games. The at tendance was small; only four rooters from Monmouth were on the side lines, and a small crowd to cheer for the winners. The game was clean and hard fought, but lsow and uncertain on ac count of the poor light and wet floor. Thompson went in at forward in the last of the second half, relieving the fast but lighter forward, Strong, Craven refereed. Delmer Heighton, Secretary of the Student Body, who has been unable to attend classes for ten days on account of illness, an injured heel and complications, returned to his desk Monday, ready for work but forced to walk on crutches. Stanley Evans received a pain ful injury in knee and leg in the game with Independence Satur-1 dav night, bv a fall, and was 1 .,, '., ) f, i taken dl on Monday afternoon. and obliged to go homo.
