An important meeting of the senior class will be held at Fraser hall tonight at 7:30, according to Wilburt Starr, president of the class. This is to be the last business meeting of the seniors and the class memorial will be held on April 16th at that time. The final reports of all the class committees will be given.

"This year's class has been unusually successful," Sturr said, "and I wish to express my appreciation for operation in making it a success."
The senior memorial will be larger than in previous years because the class has more money than other classes have had. The cake-walk made money this year whereas in college, you must just break even or has lost money.
There have been more new members added to the roll of the Alumni Association than usual from the semi-final round. Than one hundred joined this year.
"A great deal of interest has been shown by members of the class and I hope it doesn't wane tonight. Each one does it and make it a point to there," Starr said.
Husser Talks to Classes
Purpose of Business Bureau Is Topic of Lecture
George Husser, manager of the Better Business bureau of Kansas City, M., spoke yesterday to Prof. L. N. Fintu's and Prof. W. A. Dilp's classes in advertising on the purpose and work of the Better Business Bureau.
"Three remedies for unfair method of advertising were percussion, pulity and prosecution," said Mr. Husrero. He declared that the group was willing to do the right thing. Then there was the gray group, which he said was trickery. The black group which numbered about five per cent of the business men, were big out and out, and they caused the most trouble.
"The purpose," said Mr. Husser, "of the bureau was to protect the public and the business man from unfair treatment." The managers had to point out, that such advertising cut three ways; first, it hurt the public second, the competitors, and last the bureau.
Mr. Husser showed the class several different kinds of stocks and bonds that had been sold, and some of which were covered in a distribution that proved a fraud.
Trade names were also discussed and he showed how many names proved deceptive to the public.
"Last year the black group swindled the American public out of more than a billion dollars, which was three times as much as bad checks, and five times as much as the burglargs got," he said.

Anyone within wgo adopt some poor homeless boys could probably have their wises fulfilled by sending a tree to the homeless man and "bettling them out of seas."
It was truly a pathetic sight to witness one's socks, shoes, shoes-strips, and other wearing apparel looking as if they had been half way through the laundry and were now ready for the clothline. However, this is the time of the year that clothes are not so valuable as notebooks, textbooks, and other necessary materials for final examinations. Well, anyway they may dry out before examinations and it may be possible for the boys to pass sufficient hours to return to live in their new house next year.
