Oren was formerly a student in the college of medicine here. About the middle of last July he went to France and was on active service on the western front up until the time of his death. No reason for his death was given, but as he had been in poor health for some time, it was assumed that he died of disease. Homer Paine Homer J. Paine of Eagle Grove died of pneumonia in France Sept. 26, according to word received yesterday in the Alumni office. Mr. Paine entered the University in September, 1917, as a pre-medic and left soon after to join the air squadron. He was inducted into service at Jefferson Barracks Dec. 13, 1917, and was sent overseas with the 258th Aero Squadron late in August of this year. His death came after about a month’s service in France. While at the University Mr. Paine was especially interested in the study of military service, and was working to become a cadet officer under former Capt. Mumma. Virginia Younkers Virginia Younker, sophomore in the college of liberal arts last year, died of pneumonia following Spanish influenza at the Methodist hospital in Des Moines, Dec. 6.

Leah Nicholson Leah Nicholson, who was graduated last spring, died recently of pneumonia following influenza at Scranton, where she had been teaching during the past school year. Home was at Ralston, her father J.A. Nicholson being a grain dealer there. She has a cousin Helen Nicholson attending the University this year. Staff and Circle girls who have been taking charge of the music at the noon dances has turned over the surplus from their weekly collection to the University social committee. Rowena Evans, Kappa Kappa Gamma, has been ill with influenza. BE NEAT AND DIGNIFIED TEACHERS, SAYS ENSIGN More than a hundred students expecting to teach next year, attended a meeting held by the committee on recommendations, Friday afternoon in the liberal arts assembly room. Prof. F.C. Ensign explained how students should register with the committee, and the method of cooperation for students and the department in the obtaining of positions. Professor Ensign also advised as to the [methid] of writing applications. He emphasizes the necessity of making a favorable appearance when meeting members of a school board or superintendents. It was also suggested that after a position is obtained teachers should refrain from falling in love with the high school seniors. It seems complaints often come to the committee for this misdemeanor. The request was also made that applications be written in ink; it seems that some school boards strenuously object to the use of a pencil in such formal correspondence. Dr. Steelsmith, University health officer, is to have an assistant nurse at Currier Hall. The nurse has not been appointed but will be soon and will immediately begin work.
