Loss of Top Story: Damage
$12,000
The fire department responded, but the water pressure was low at the start, and it was some time before the fire was brought under control. The upper story was completely demolished, and practically nothing was saved, that floor exceeded the roofs and the trophies of the teams had won. No damage was done to the lower floor and the basement except by water.
The loss is estimated at $12,000,
fully covered by insurance.
But you must not compare Vudor Shades with ordinary Bamboo and other cheap shades. We are exclusive customers. We will cheerfully measure your porch and give you the cost which is never much.

SMART SIMPLICITY FOR THE YOUNG GIRL
The edict has gone forth that simplicity will reign in the vogue of summer dresses for young girls—yet the attractiveness is none the less because of the lack of elaboratness in trimming and design.
The desired "smartness" is well illustrated by our full stocks. Becomingness is assured. The variety is surprisingly large.
We have dresses of pretty Summer fabrics, that have that fresh, cool look so desirable these warm days. As low as

STUDENT WINDS HONORS BY
LESS THAN ONE PER CENT
By Neal M. Wherry

CLASS OF '73 WILL HOLD 40TH JUBILEE
Four Grads Of That Year To Gather On Campus At Commencement
The classes which were graduated from the University five years ago, or any multiple of five, are now busy with preparations for their commencement reunions. Probably the most active class is that of '93, which made itself famous at the time of its graduation by the erection of a totem pole and by publishing the first annual of any considerable size and therefore the first one to cause any considerable deficit. This class now has one of the highest percentages of prominent alumni that has been made by any University class.
It will be possible this year, for the first time, for a class to celebrate its fortieth anniversary of graduation from the University. The class of '73 still has the four members with which it left the University. They are Flora Richardson Colman, of Lawrence, Ralph Collins, of Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, L. D. L. Tosh, of Kansas City, Kansas
Tuesday is probably the busiest day of commencement week so far as the alumni are concerned. Seven big events are pulled off on that day and the old grad is kept moving to take in all of them.* Sheffield Ingalls who gives the annual alumni address on that day, has announced that he intends to speak on the subject "The Spirit of Loyalty." Mr. Ingalls as presiding officer of the senate last winter was in close touch with the efforts made alumni to look after the university's interests. He knowledges what some alumni did and also what other alumni registered to do. His address will be a vigorous presentation of what the graduates of the University have before them to do during the next two years.
The secretaries of the classes holding reunions this year are: '73, D. L. Tosh, Kansas City; '78, Kate William Boottcher, Stigler, Okla: '83, M. W. Sterling, Lawrence; '88, William T. Reed, Kansas City, Missouri; '93, S. J. Hunter, Lawrence; '98, Blanche Woster, Lawrence; '98, C. C. Crawford, Lawrence; '08, Ola Bingler Chaney, Independence. The classes of the last three will have special reunions

The first five days of the six days session are for lectures and laboratory work. The last day's meeting is for clinics at the Bell Memorial hospital, Rosedale.
The course is free, and all practitioners and students of medicine may attend. The first meeting was held three years ago by Dr. J. S. Crumbine, and the enrollment was so large that he decided to make a permanent location of the state. Since its adoption at Kanass, four other large states have introduced similar plans.
The object of the school is to teach the fundamentals of sanitation, both by lectures and actual illustrative experiments. The state association of health officers meets in conjunction, elects officers, and holds its annual banquet.
William Wellhouse, '12, and Ward Moyer, '10, of Topeka, spent the week-end at the Sig Alph house.
In additional to these specialists lectures will be delivered by Chancellor Strong, J. J. Sippy, epidemiologist, State Board of Health, W. J. V. Deacon, state registrar vital statistics, S. J. Hunter, state entomologist, Dr. T. H. Boughton, professor of pathology and bacteriology, Dr. C. S. Kenney, superintendent Kansas Sanitization for Tuberculosis, Dr. Crumble, secretary State Board of Health and dean of the School of Medicine, Jeff E. Sayre, Dean of the School of Pharmacy and state drug analyst, and Dr. J. L. Hurty, secretary Indiana State Board of Health, Doctors Sudler, Sutton, Hertzler, Milne, Giffey, Sawtell, Lidikay, and May, will have charge of the clinics at Rosedale.

Miss Laura Pendleton, '12, who is attending school at the Florida Woman's College in Tallahassee, recently assisted at the reception at Governor Trammel's mansion for the Florida legislature.
At Oberlin, the faculty has found it necessary to limit the amount of time that students may spend in school activities. Everything is figured on the basis of hours corresponding to the curriculum hours. Men are to be allowed nineteen hours a week, as a maximum and women only seventeen, except by special dispensation. Furthermore, before any student can hold an elective office, he must have passed in all his studies during the previous term, and have made B in three-fourths of his work. A list of outside college activities has been made showing how many hours, in fall, winter, and spring, the students may spend in the various activities. The men on the varsity football squad are allowed the most time, four hours during the fall, and the manager of the college annual, the next highest number of hours, viz.: three during the whole year.—Washburn Review.
