BIOLOGICAL LIBRARY GROWS.
Dr. McClung Predicts a Library for Every Department.
The biological library in Snow hall is scarcely a year old and yet it has 3,500 volumes on its shelves, with the promise of 10,000 more within the next two years. More than that, Dr.C. E.McLung, who founded the biologic library, predicts that it will be but a few years until every department in the University will have its own library.
Until the biologic library was placed in Suow hall, a year ago, students doing research work in the biological sciences found it necessary to spend hours and in some cases, days of good time delving thru the Spooner library looking for references.
As a proof of the rapidity with which the new library is growing, one has but to glance at a list of the contributors and the books they have given since the opening of the fall term. Here are a few of them:
United States Senator, Chester I. Long, has furnished all of the annual reports of the U. S. Fish commission, comprising thirty volumes; James Wilson, secretary of Agriculture, has sent the library all of the "Year Books" from 1894 to date; Otis Smith, director of the geological survey, has printed a complete set of bulletins and professional papers composing some sixty volumes; Charles C. Wolcott, secretary of the Smithsonian institution, has furnished a complete set of publications of the United States National Museum Co., comprising seventy-five volumes; Henry Krummel, director of the geological survey of New Jersey, has presented the library with a complete set of their annual reports, constituting twenty eight volumes.

K. U. Woman Talks at Chicago.
That even in the liberal West education for women has been looked on with suspicion until very recently, was the statement made yesterday by Mrs. Blackbrother, one of the first women students of Kansas State University, before the Literature College women. Speaking of her experiences, she said, "In those days, people looked askance at a college woman, and said, 'Oh what use is all your hand work?' Now the answer to the question is, that an education is a help in any station of life, and an educated woman can cope with any situation. Personally, I enjoyed satisfying the hunger after knowledge, and later I could answer my children's questions and follow them in their studies as they grew up. Your advantages are greater than ours were, but the question is, 'What are you going to do with your education?' The obligations of an education are like the obligations of riches; it must be used for the good of mankind. You should not draw apart from other women, but should be of service to others."—Chicago Daily Maroon.
