These women were n't only impres sive speakers, but their words had the added interest of personal experience and sympathy. Their appeal was not made in vain.

After the speeches had been made, the classes adjourned to their own rooms and discussed p ans for rais ing money for this cause. The fresh men decided to assume the support of one orphan; the sophomores pledg ed half this amount, and the juniors agreed to attempt to raise enough for one child.

This will make a more homelike and cheerful atmosphere for students. This year the gymnasium is to be used by the girls on Monday and Wednesday after school and on Tues day and Thursday by the boys. Basketball practice for the girls will probably be held in the evening once a week. This is rather inconvenient for students living outside of town, nut i.t present it seems to be the only possible solution, as basketball practice cannot be held in regular jryrn. time.
