BARNARD CO-EDS TO HURDLE AND RACE
Sophomores and Freshmen Hold Games in Columbia University Gymnasium
The young women of Barnard College, New York, will hold their annual contest of Greek games in the gymnasium of Columbia University March 22.
It is a yearly custom for the sophomores to try their strength and skill in choral singing, choral dance, songwriting, quoit throwing and hoop rolling.
The sophomores send their challenge to the freshmen in an important looking scroll covered with Greek characters. The costumes are the original "creation" of the two classes and modelled strictly on Greek lines.
Only the student in Barnard College and a limited number of feminine friends will be permitted to be present.

Children Heard Tales of "Little Colonel" at the Library
Library
Just imagine hearing all about your favorite characters in fiction, from some one who has known them personally! That was the treat enjoyed by over a hundred girls and boys at the Lawrence Public Library Saturday afternoon, when Miss Amarynthia Smith, special in the College, told the children all about the "Little Colonel," and how Annie Fellows Johnston came to write the book. And about Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, and her creator, Alice Heagan Rice.
Miss Smith, whose home is in Louisville, Kentucky, was a playmate of Hattie Cochran, the original of the "Little Colonel," at their summer homes in the "Peebee Valley near Louisville. An intimate account of Mrs. Wiggs and her home in the Cabbage Patch quite delighted the children.
"And when you-all come down to Louisville," cordially invited Miss Smith, "if you'll come to see me, I'll take you out and show you the Little Colonel's home, 'The Locusts' and Mrs. Wigg's house in the Cabbage Patch."
When the story hour was over, a dozen joyful infants crowded around Miss Smith, clamoring for her Louisville address.

TO GET RID OF FLIES SWAT BY THE BOOK
Dr. Crumbine's Almanac Gives Practical Rules for Side-stepping Disease
Try the pop-corn crisp at Wiedemann's—Adv.
Dean S. J. Crumbine of the School of Medicine is responsible for the fact that the monopoly which the patient medicine companies have had on getting out almanacs has been broken by the Kansas State Board of Health. The Kansas State Board of Health has for 10-12 containing much valuable information on matters of health.
One page of each month is devoted to information on how to avoid one of the infectious diseases. For instance, if you have any dread of typhoid fever, just turn to page 11 and you will find the very latest and best approved methods of preventing this disease; how to "swat the fly," directions for the disposal of garbage, and methods for cleaning the bathroom around the horses and shop at all times. There is no speculation, no theorizing; you can accept as tried and proven every assertion regarding disease made therein.
Following each day of each month, on the opposite page, are tabulated chronologically important dates in Kansas history, furnished by Secretary Martin of the State Historical Society. If your memory is a little rusty on the date of Quantrell's said, oil borer Bayou Perry should be observed; but you have to do is to look at the almanac, and the information will be at hand immediately.
Interspersed between the dates are pungent health epigram, presented in such a manner that the attention is fixed on the subject matter treated.
