Information Bureau In the future the University will maintain an information bureau at the check stand for the benefit of the students, both old and new. The bureau will be continued throughout the whole year and will be open the entire day. Y. M. C. A. Stag Tonight. Tonight the annual Y. M. C. A. stag social will be held in Myers Hall at 8 o'clock. The affair will be strictly informal and all the men of the University are invited. This will be the first and best opportunity for new students to become acquainted with each other and with the upper classmen. Chancellor Strong will make the address of welcome and Frank Parker, president of the association, will speak. Music will be furnished by George Brown and other students. Light refreshments are to be served and the evening will be passed singing the college songs giving yells and getting acquainted. FIRE DEPARTMENT LATER. Six Men Will Get Free Rooms When Appropriation Comes. On the upper floor of the new carpenter and pipe shop, which was completed last spring, a room has been set aside to be used as sleeping quarters by half a dozen University students, who will comprise the University fire department. The men will receive their rooms free in return for their service. A small chemical engine will be stored on the ground floor. There is no money at present available for the purchase of the engine, and the department cannot be organized until the next appropriation has been made safe by the legislature. READY FOR THE SICK. Hospital Association Has a. Good Plan of Insurance. From the present prospects it appears that that the University Hospital Association will experience a year of unprecedented growth during 1908-9. Already 200 students have paid the two dollars fee which gives them the benefits of the association but many more will doubtless follow. Dr. H. L. Chambers of the faculty has been secured by the Association to act as the physician. He will have offices in the gymnasium where he will meet any member of the association for consultation. If the student is unable to walk, Dr. Chambers will give him medical attention in his room. In cases of serious illness the patient will be taken to the hospital where he will be under the care of graduate nurses. The only expense that the member of the hospital association will have to bear in time of illness or injury will be the cost of the food while in the hospital. In order to secure the above benefits of the association it will be necessary to secure 700 members. IN THE COLD, HARD WORLD. Seniors Are Busy in many Professions—Wide Field of Work.
