Too Much Time Spent in Education, Says Investigating Committee in Its Report to Council. That the student of today spends too much time in school is the opinion of the committee of investigation of economy of time in education. President James H. Baker of the University of Colorado is chairman of the committee. This committee has been two years compiling data which it will file with the National Council of Education. As a result of the investigating they have concluded that by skillfully combining the modern courses the student may be enabled to carry out his professions and ambitions at the age of twenty or twenty-one, instead of twenty-two or twenty-three as at present.

Owen, of the Spanish department, in his lecture on Spanish Masters in Art, at the Unitarian church, Sunday night. “But, when the Spaniard says that the Museo del Prado is the most beautiful gallery in Europe, we are compelled to take him at his word. This gallery contains the greatest pictures of Velasquez and Murillo.” Professor Owen's lecture was illustrated by reproductions of Spanish masterpieces. Mrs. A. L. Owen, assisted by Mrs. C. H. Ashton, played several selections from the works of ancient and modern Spanish composers. NO SECRET SOCIETIES AT BRYN MAWR. There never has been any secret societies among students at Bryn Mawr. It has been the rule since the foundation of the college that they should not exist, and there has never been any tendency to break this rule. The only organizations of any kind, all of which have open membership, are those connected with classes and those of a sociological nature, as the Philosophic and Science clubs, the Consumers' League, the Young Women's Christian Association and various athletic clubs.

PRINTER'S DEVIL GETS AN OFFICE AT LAST Wisconsin girls 'Have to be Good. If you think you are abused by being forced to keep the "10:30 rule" think of the Wisconsin girls and be comforted. A new ruling of the Self-government Association at the University of Wisconsin announces that a girl must dismiss all callers at 10 p.m. or if driving must return by 9:30 p.m., or after a dance must be home within a half an hour after the close of the dance This club is composed of all men interested in newspaper work. These are not idle rules either, for the association has powers sufficient to suspend a girl from school for violation of these rules. Missouri Co-eda Good Nurses. Missouri Co-eds. Good Nurses.

Harder, State Food Analyst, the beautiful luster we admire so much on pecans is caused by a coating of brick dust. O. E. Harder, State Food Analyst,Says Brick Dust Colors Pecans When peanuts are gathered, small pieces of bark often cling to them and they are slightly cracked or the ends discolored. A course in the brick oven will make the almile, smooth, shiny and red. The color of the peanut is gray. Dartmouth "Freshies" Poor Students Average scholarships for 1910-1911 at Dartmouth shows the senior mark was 76.7, that of the juniors 73.5, of the sophomores 69.6, of the freshmen 67.4 and of the entire college 71.1. Composes Music for Opera: Clarence L. Connor, a freshman in the College last year, has written the music for "The Diplomat," an opera to be given by the Kosmet Dramatic Club of the University of Nebraska. Connor entered Nebraska this fall. He is a member of the Masque club here. Mr. Harder has a varied collection of samples gathered from the dealers over the state. In some cases the nut is simply rubbed smooth and tinged with red while in others the dust is so thick that it rubs off easily on the fingers. The paper bags in which the nuts were bought, show the coating very plainly. One specimen was bought in Washington, D. C. The coating of this is not brick dust apparently, but red mud, and is thick enough to scale. The primary reason it is so coated is to cover defects and hide the age and quality of the nuts. In this it conflicts with that part of the pure food law which says, "It shall be unlawful to sell any food article if it be mixed, colored, powdered, coated, stained, or otherwise treated in a manner whereby damage or inferiority is concealed or whereby it is made to appear better than it really is."
