But Building and Grounds Committee Changes Location Selected
SENIOR MEMORIAL PLAN ACCEPTED BY FACULTY
The building and grounds committee has approved the stone bulletin board memorial proposed by the senior class but not by the student council, directed by the committee of the class because it would be impossible to move the electric light post at the intersection of the walks just outside the campus, which imposes the place the committee selected.
The buildings and grounds committee favors locating the board just west of the mail box south of Dyche Street. The building that will require a change in the design owing to the fact that the original plan was to have a place for posters on each side and in the new location but one side could be marked.
Willis G. Whitten, senior Engineer, and Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith are working on a new design for submission to the committee.

Representative McGinnis may have lost out with his anti-fake complexion bill in the state legislature, but his truths go marching on, and now a professor in the University is making use of some means of a new machine which obviates the use for cosmetics, face powder, and other aids to beauty.
The new substitute for Violet Talc and Cashmere Boquet, which has been invented by Prof. R. M. Ogden of the department of psychology, is a machine for determining the complement of any color, and the effect of the color when blended with the skin. Balmade Boquet can man can determine just what color she should use to set off her eyes, her hair, or her new spring hat.
The new machine is expected to prove a blessing to the youths of the Hill, who long have suffered the laughter of their fellows when rehearsal on Sunday night with them shoulders literally besprinkled with powder.

WOULD SAVE ZINC WASTES
They are taking the Joplin suphides or wastes that are thrown out at the zinc mines, but still have a quantity of ore in them and trying to find a way in which they will be able to recover what is now considered worthless.
The line of investigation involves a process of trying to adopt the flotation method a. d of extracting the mineral from a rock by using it successfully used in working zinc ore. It is believed that the flotation process will be much cheaper than the mechanical process now used and if it is more economically practiced, it can profitably be profitted worked.
