ARBOR DAY CELEBRATION Students Celebrate Washing ton's Birthday. The student body of the uni versity will use the 23rd of February to have a general house cleaning about the col lege grounds. They will be ably seconded by the faculty, members of which will appear in the ranks of the workers w-ith picks and shovels, hoes and rakes. The co-eds, work ing in conjunction with the Civic League of Columbia, will encourage the toilers with re freshments and make the cele bration a great success. Campus people, students and faculty, have been looking about for some time for means to beautify the old grounds. But the failure to get paving done, the disappointment we have experienced in efforts to get trees replaced and the like have made them determine to help therpselves. Hence the decision to use Washington's birthday in a general clean-up. Mr. Gullick is put in charge of the student forces, who will be organized into details for the many tasks to be done. Dr. A. C. Moore, in charge of the intelligence section of the gen eral staff, will give the neces sary information as to how the trees should be planted. There will be details to dig them up and others to plant them. A great deal of improvement will also be accomplished by the hauling of earth jnd filling in the walks that have been .washed out. The co-eds are so earnest about the work that they have consented to be assigned to the Q. M. Department and furnish the rations. They will be ably seconded by the Civic League of Columbia, and the results, we are confident, will be high ly satisfactory. Photographs will be taken of the campus "before and after," from which cuts will be made that may appear in the Annual. KNOWLES COOPER TO ADDRESS "Y."
