Wind Tears Off Roofing
**Wind Trees Off Roofing**
About a thousand pounds of tin roofing, it is estimated was torn from the roof of Fraser Hall Saturday morning by the strong wind. One large piece was blown several hundre feet from the building and small pieces were scattered about. As soon as the wind had subsided in the afternoon a temporary roof was construeted.
County Clubs to Send Leaflets Over State
Under the direction of the County Club Union of the University leaflets explaining the purpose and working of the Permanent Income Amendment will be sent out over the state for the remainder of the semester. Every office and department of the county is supplied with the state is supplied with the leaflets and they will be sent out with every letter leaving the office.
An important part of the present campaign, according to Willard Glasco, president of the County Club Union, is to get the students to send the literature with their private letters. In this way a personal touch is obtained and the people of the state will be more interested in the amendment than they would if they heard it through official sources only. Leaflets will be placed in most of the University buildings where students may get them to send with their letters.
The leaflets briefly explain how the amendment provides for a fixed limited income for state educational institutions and how this income is taken out of the control of politics, but not out of control of the legislature. They name the states that have adopted the fixed income method and explain how it reduces taxes and does not increase them.
Transparent Soaps Have Sugar in Them Savings Dains
Quit taking sugar in your soap. That is one way to conserve the sugar supply. Dr. F. B. Dains, professor of chemistry at the University of Kansas, points out. "Many of the transparent soaps contain quite an appreciable amount of sugar," Doctor Daina said.
"The sugar is added by the manufacturer simply to give transparency and brilliancy to the soap. Soap with sugar is no soapier than soap without sugar. The patriotic thing to do is to cut out the use of transparent soaps, which may contain sugar."

The War Department announces that, in order to keep information of value from the enemy, no more lists of casualties abroad will be issued containing the addresses of the men. A resolution introduced into the Senate indicates that there is to be opposition to this order.
A German patrol of fifty men, preparing to enter the American trenches, were driven off last week by the timely fire of a sentry. Dispatches commend the bravery of the Americans in another engagement.
