BOOST FOR A DORMITORY
Comparatively few students fully appreciate the vast portent of the meeting in chapel tomorrow. The idea of a Woman's Day originated in the minds of those who saw the loss the University suffers by not having proper housing facilities for its girl students. The outcome of tomorrow's meeting will decide whether the movement for dormitories shall go forward with renewed impetus or whether the agitation shall die out. Those who are in charge of the meeting are enthusiastic over the prospects and fore-tell a successful conclusion of a long campaign.
It is not doubted that the University looses many students each year because of the absence of dormitories. If the meeting culminates in immediate plans being made for the house, it will be a success and a material increase in our enrollment may be expected next year as a direct result of the movement.
The majority of the student body has shown marked apathy toward the erection of these dormitories. Occasion will be given tomorrow to express their sentiments and if they show the proper spirit the visitors will be impressed with the need for such a building. State wide interest in the erection of dormitories is bound to result eventually in the best of housing facilities for all the girls of the University.
Freshmen caps will be much worn Saturday. The decree of the Student Council stipulates that all first year men purchase one of the abbreviated head gears and at the Baker game Saturday
With the resignation of "Dad" Herman the Y. M. C. A. is losing a proficient officer and the University is losing one of its most popular men. As secretary of the Y. M. C. A. he has done much to establish the present close association it has with the every day life of University men. Under his administration its activity and efficiency has increased until it is made to reach practically every man attending school. "Dad" is going to a larger field of work and with him go the best wishes of the University. May his future efforts be as much appreciated as has his work as secretary of the University Y. M. C. A.

display the same for the edification of the upperclassmen.
Last year there was considerable soreness—not all mental either—because several of the Freshmen considered the wearing of the caps a personal insult. This year the Council is determined that every Freshman shall wear a cap and their orders will be enforced.
First Faculty Tea.
The ladies of the faculty are giving the first of the regular monthly faculty teas to the young women of the University this afternoon in the Latin room of Fraser hall.
Today's motto: Now is the time for all good men and true to come to the aid of their party
Notice.

INSPECTION TRIP
Engineers to Visit Large Plants Around Chicago and Milwaukee.
The annual inspection trip for mechanical seniors will be taken during the week of Oct. 16-21 this year. The party will go to Chicago and Milwaukee, visiting the Hawthorne works of the Western Electric Co., the steel plant at Gary where the largest gas engine driven plant in the world is located, the Lubricating Oil plant of the Standard Oil Co., at Whiting, the works of the Allis-Chalmers Co., at Milwaukee, and other plants of interest.
Any upper class men in the Engineering School who can arrange to leave their classes may join the party. See me at once if you desire to go along.

Blue Serge No.4130
1
Special
$18.50
YOU will find here the Clothcraft Blue Serge Special, $18.50, advertised in The Saturday Evening Post. It is an exceptionally good serge—the best we have ever offered at the price—guaranteed to be all-wool, fast color and full weight. Also guaranteed to hold shape, stand wear and give satisfaction in every detail of service.
Ordinarily even on the Clothcraft basis of price-making—which allows only for a reasonable fixed percentage of profit above actual cost—you could not buy this serge at so low a price, but the Clothcraft makers have prepared for an unusual demand for this serge, making the suits in such enormous quantitities as to reduce considerably the cost of production.
Clothcraft Blue Serge 4130 combines style and service to an unusual degree, giving you a suit with the dependable fabric, skillful tailoring and nicety of fit usually found only in high-priced serges.
When you observe its fine, soft,
even twilled fabric, its deep rich
color, its graceful, distinctive style
and its easy, perfect fit, you will
realize it's the suit you have been
looking for.
Therefore, they were enabled to use a better quality of serge than they usually could afford to put into a suit at $18.50. At the same time the style, fit and tailoring are of the high standard you always find in Clothcraft Clothes.
You cannot appreciate the Blue Serge Special No. 4130 unless you see it. If you want to know how well a blue serge can look and feel, it will be worth your while to come in and try on your size in No. 4130.
