Jones Builds Hygrometer.
Professor F. E, Jones of the wood-craft and pattern-making department has built a hygrometer which shows how the moisture in the air affects wood in its expansion and contraction. Bass-wood, which is more hygrometrical than most woods, is the sensitive part of the instrument. The chief importance of the hygrometer is to show the effect of the humidity of the atmosphere upon wood. In making patterns this effect must be overcome by having the contracting and expanding forces equalize each other.
May Music Festival.
The May Music festival will be given this year on Thursday and Friday, May 6 and 7. This season the management wishes to arouse more interest in the festival among the students than in former years. To do this, one ticket will be given to every student who sells ten tickets; or he will be given ten per cent of the money he may collect. Last year only 206 student tickets were sold while in other schools the number varied from 500 to 1000.
New Zoological Specimens.

New Cataloging System.
This week a new numbering system for the cataloging of museum specimens was begun. The system adopted is a combination of the Dewey system, which is used in the library, and the one used in the Parker and Haswell text book. It will be adopted for the paleontological and other collections for zoology. This will entail an immense amount of work for the museum people as about 50,000 specimens are to be renumbered.
Preyer Will Give Recital.
