Williams St. UI ALUMNAE HELP MAKE PARTY OF WOMEN'S LEAGUE SUCCESS The alumnae must be given a large part of the credit for the success of the Women's league party yesterday afternoon. Two very clever skits were acted. "A Scream", written by Mar- ion Stowe, '16, brought forth much applause; and a meeting of the ad- ministrative board, which was planned by Bertha Herbst and at which many prominent members of the faculty sat was very realistic. Between acts, Alice Lloyd, '16, sang "L'Adieu du Matin" by Pressard and Wolf's "Gesang Weylas." The enter- tainment was in charge of Helen Blair, '16, assisted by Marion Stowe, Nona Fogerty, Bertha Herbst, Gertrude Fish- er, Florence Peters, Vivian Baker, Blanche Washburn, Freda Seigworth, Esther Betts And Winifred'Shepard. Dancing and refreshments followed as usual, apples and doughnuts vieing with each other for popularity. Efficiency Bureau of New York Uni- versity Places Many Men The efficiency bureau of the New York University, which was recently reorganized, placed more than twice as many students and graduates in commercial positions during October as any other similar bureau in the same period. The number of those 1 placed was 67. During the last year the bureau has found places for 400 men.. The unprecedented demand for high-i grade men leaves vacant a score of positions paying an annual salary of $5,000. According to Hale H. Hug- gins, director of the university's ef- ficiency bureau, there are more such positions than trained men to fill them. Mr. Huggins said yesterday that it was reasonably certain that a student prepared financially to remain in the city for five or six weeksrcould obtain a position which would provide for his further stay at the university. Mr. Huggins says that none of the men placed have been discharged. Last year the bureau was concerned only with men of the school of com- merce. This year it has broadened its scope and will help members of the other schools of the university, including law, engineering, medical, and pedagogy students, as well as stu- dents taking a cultural course. The positions filled so far include accountants, advertising men, book- keepers, efficiency engineers, credit men, bank and brokerage employes, export and import men, traffic man- agers, public and private secretaries, stenographers, teachers, linguists, tu- tors, law clerks, office managers, gen- eral clerks, salesmen, and cashiers. El Pasol, Tex., Dec. 1.-Aout 150,-, 000 years is being added to the aggre- gate life of the population of the United States by the Mexican "situa- tion." Instead of spreading death and disablement the campaign in Mexico and the mobilization of the national guard is adding from a few months to years to the life of every civilian soldier, army physicians declare. Sta- tisticians have figured that the aver- age added to the life of each guards- man will be nearly a year. After four to six months of train- ing like an athlete, working i'n the open air, sleeping in a tent'and eating simple food a hundred thousand guardsmen will go back to civil life with a new lease on life. "Nearly every man on the border wiu be benefited immeasurably by the training he is undergoing," said Major James F. Edwards. "In most cases the instruction in personal hygiene and right living will influence the militiamen for years. "Even now the difference in the health of our men can be noticed. Several months of daily exercise in the open air and sleeping in a tent cannot but benefit. It is worth a dozen vacations rolled into one. "Most important is the effect of the army diet. Most civilians eat too much. Intemperance in eating is more dangerous than any other form of intemperance. For four months our men have been eating the simple pal- atable army ration. They don't eat too much and the food value of what they get is computed scientifically. This regime with plenty of exercise cannot fail to add something to the lives of our citizen soldiers." GIVES ILLUSTRATED LECTURE ON TRANSPORTING EXPLOSIVES Col. James L. Taylor of Bureau of Explosives, Speaks Mon. dy) "Safe Transportation of Explosives, and Other Dangerous Articles" will be the subject of an address to be given by Col. James L. Taylor of the bureau of explosives, at 8 o'clock Mon- day night in the lecture room of the engineering building. The lecture will be illustrated with sterioptican slides and will be of spe- cial interest to students in transporta- tion problems, chemistry, and engi- neering. Colonel Taylor is the lecturer of the goevrnment bureau, which formed the rules now followed by railroads in carrying explosive material. In ad- dition to the Monday night address, he will speak to the members of Prof. H. C. Adams' class in transportation problems Monday morning. The bureau of explosives is com- posed chiefly of United States army officers and their work has resulted in a decrease of accidents. Few Tickets Left for Union Dance A few tickets may still be obtained for the regular Union Saturday night dance. "Ike" Fisher's orchestra will play. Chaperones for the dance are: Mr. and Mrs. Geo-rge B. Rhead, and Mr. and Mrs. P. O. Okkelberg. The follow- ing have been chosen to serve on the committee: Chairman, C. W. Neu- mann, '18; H. C. L. Jackson, '18, and Chicago says: "Wage increases are being nounced in various industries, an- and during the closing six weeks of the year it is probable fully 1,000,000 men will have their pay advanced. This movement is of remarkable scope, and reflects the complications that have resulted from the growing shortage of labor and the sensational rise in liv- ing expenses. In some industries wages have been advanced three or four times within a year. The pay of the clerical forces is being read- justed, something unusual. "In addition to the full pockets of the wage earning classes the disburse- ment of special dividends and bonuses has also been a factor in enlarging the supply of money available for Christ- mas shoppers." Foreign Loans; Gold Influx In discussing foreign loans and the gold supply, the circular says: "With the new loans of the last four weeks the total advances by American bankers to foreign borrow- ers aggregate nearly $2,000,000,000 for the European war period. If the re- purchases of foreign owned American securities be taken into account, the total financing represented by the loans made to foreign borrowers and the amounts paid for securities shift- ed to this side will aggregate $3,000,- 000,000. This is a conservative esti- mate. "The situation has been made- more interesting by the continued ar- rivals of foreign gold. This move- ment has reached inconvenient di- mensions, and unless these gold hold- ings can be impounded in the federal reserve banks there would seem to be danger of serious inflation. The operation is full of interesting possi- bilities, and it is to be hoped that the policy advocated by the federal re- serve board will be carried out. All this gold will be in demand as soon as the war ends, and it is of the high- est importance that it should be treat- ed as a sort of trust fund for re- course to, in case of need, later on." "ALL-CAMPUS MIXER" TODAY Athletic Department of Women's League Gives Dances to Raise Funds The "all-campus mixer" takes place at 2:30 this afternoon at Barbour gym- nasium. Any university student will be admitted upon payment of 25 cents at the door. Fisher's orchestra has been secured to furnish the music for dancing, and the floor' has been put into fine condition. Prof. R. T. Crane and Mrs. Crane, and Mr. and Mrs. W. 0. Raymond will act as chaperones. The party was planned by the ath- letic 'department of the Women's league in order to raise money for the fund for the proposed field house on Palmer field. It is the largest un- dertaking of the department up to this time. The affair is to take the place of the topsy-turvy party that was held last year.
