BLAKE HALL WIRE CATCHES
MESSAGES FROM FAR EAST
One wire extending from the eaves of Blake Hall to the top of a large cottonwood tree just off the south side of the slope is sufficient aerial to catch time signals from Washington, D. C
The students who are working on the wireless experiments are hoping to have this aerial enlarged enough by the department of physics to make it useful in sending and receiving messages from both coasts.
Rev. L. H. Hughbanks, and S. A. Paul, members of the State House of Representatives spent the week-end at the Delta Tau Delta house.
At present the time signals are about the only long distant messages that have been received at the station here.

WOMEN BETTER THAN MEN
AS PROBABILITY OFFICERS
SQUIRE'S
Up to the age of fourteen, boys can be managed by either men or women officers, according to the child's temperament. However, after that age, they are more likely to officers do better, being more able to understand the boys' problems.
That women probation officers are getting better results in juvenile court work than men is the fact pointed out by Emily Foote Runge, a probation officer in the St. Louis juvenile court, in an article in the November number of the Annals of Criminal Justice, the Academy of Political and Social Science.
At no time, according to Miss Runge should men be allowed to take care of court girls. By actual results the case results can be obtained by women than men in handling the girls that are brought into the juvenile court The policy has been in the St. Louis juvenile court of having worked in the court officials in these cases and the plan has met with success .
Cooperative Book Store at Iowa
Cooperative Book Store at Iowa
That the student union at the university has big things in the school is amply proved by the plan which the board of directors is now working on to establish a cooperative book store in the union. After having made a careful study of the bookstore, they are conducted the board has reached the conclusion that the plan cannot fail at Iowa and they hope to have a shop in operation next year. The union at Iowa has done a great deal in that regard and that way has become a recognized factor in the life of the university.
Some people who regard Columbia University as a joke in athletics should glance over the basketball standing of the Eastern schools. At the top of the league with a percentage of one thousand stands Columbia, Princeton, Princeton, Pennsylvania, and Dartmouth. The New York school usually makes an annual affair of winning the eastern basketball championship.
Columbia Good at Basketball
Students at the University of Illinois are beginning to rebel against the "new" dances, saying that modern dancing has become an exhibition of athletic prowess or an evidence of long weeks spent in arduous practise instead of a graceful and universal diversion.
Is Dancing Fun or Exercise?

What a demand there must be for dates. *Note*

Q. "THE GIRL OR THE JOB?"
ANS. "TLL TAKE THE GIRL."
When George Enfield Frazer, professor of public accounting in the University of Illinois, had to make a decision about whether he did not hesitate—he took the girl.
She is Miss Helen Dickson James, daughter of the president of the University, and, even if his position is the best of its kind in the world, it isn't worth nearly as much as Miss James, Professor Frazer thinks.
The loss of the position is due to President James' belief that the head of an educational institution should not employ any of his relatives.
Students in the University of Illinois are apt to come home and find most anybody's mail in their box for the establishing of a new system of numbering the houses in the town has led to much confusion in the handling of the mail. However postmaster Chas. J. Mulliken (nationality not German) says that things are going better than he expected.
