INFIRMARY VISITED BY NEW DESEASE David Meers, brought the first case of chickenpox of the year to the infirmary. James Dusenberry and L. C. Floyd left, thus ending the measles epidemic. J. C. Tilt<5n came in Monday with malaria. Mu still has a few last lingering devotees in C. G. Wolf, and Alex McCarrel, It's supposed to be a secret, but the baking machine has new bulbs. u. s. c. I Fashion's Foibles Stockings are not just stockings to women. They are a luxurious necessity and it is important to wear just the right ones in color and texture. The smartest hose now are the dull finished ones. The sheen is eliminated by a new twist of the silk in the thread which is also supposed to make them smoother and stronger. The smoothness is proof against pulling and if pulls could be banished what a burden would be taken from us 1 Those dull hose are really prettier and more flattering. They make the legs look slimmer and make them appear at their best. A powdery effect is given that is as becoming to them as real powder is to the face. Stocking colors for spring are just about two shades lighter than those worn during the winter. With black or gray costumes, gray-beige stockings look best. For most other day-time wear, a medium beige is the nicest. For evening the nude colored stocking is favorite. It is both practical and economical to get a stocking color and stick to it. Or rather, these three colors for spring, and if you get all your hose of the same make and shade you will not have any single good stockings surviving a mate which have to be discarded. u. s. C. SUGGESTIONS That co-eds wearing high-heel shoes do not walk across the tennis courts. Breaking bits of stucco and plastering off the buildings doesn't help the general appearance. The flowers that have just starfed blooming look a whole lot better where they are than as boutennieres. And just to be trite?why not use the trash cans for spare papers?and leave chalk in the classrooms? We are glad so many frosh have stopped breaking out windows to get their "five dollars' worth," but can't they chunk at something besides the squirrels we've wasted so many peanuts taming?

Rembert House Girls Thrilled By Dracula Terrible Nightmare At Rembert House Is Caused By Dreaded Killer "Eee-ec-e-e-" a shrill, blood-curdling, scream cut through the silent atmosphere of the somnolent Rembert House during the wee hours of Monday morning, j "Good Lord!! What is that?" The occupants of the second floor catapulated from their beds as the shriek resounded through the rooms. They rushed precipitately in the direction of the outcries. "Get that thing off my knees! Oh-h-!" again came the hysterical voice. The astounded girls discovered Edith Stukes, sitting bolt upright in her bed, sound asleep, and emitting howls of abject terror. Across "her knees lay a small unassuming book. "Get it off my knees, I say! Eee-ee-e-eGet it off!" "Wake up, wake up!" They shook the sleeping girl violently, but without effect. "Get some water quick!" 1 he cold fluid served only to make the nightmare more 'violent. At last Mrs. Marion was called upon for aid. She administered a dose of ammonia, and Edith awakened. "I fell asleep reading Dracula," was her shruddering explanation. u. s. c.
