UNIVERSITY MAILING LIST IS ENORMOUS
Twenty University Women Are Employed on Hour Basis in Two Offices
Approximately 450,000 copies of second class matter are mailed from the office of C.H. Weller, University editor, each year. The material handled in Mr. Weller's office includes service bulletins dealing with the different courses offered in the University, and general bulletins which are of a more elaborate nature than the service bulletins, but deal to a great extent with the same subjects.
The material for these publications is furnished by the department of the University to which the bulletin pertains and it edited in Mr. Weller's office.
Since the different bulletins deal with entirely different subjects, it is necessary to have almost an entirely different mailing list for each edition. The editions vary in circulation from a few hundred to as many as 35,000. One list is used which contains all seniors in accredited high schools in the state. Another list contains the names of all the teachers in the state and still others reach doctors, ministers and business men.
The work in Mr. Weller's office is done under his supervision and with the assistance of Lillian E. Pieper, junior liberal arts, Helen Slavata, senior liberal arts, and twenty other students, most of whom are girls.
Although the office of Mr. Weller does not take care of the University catalogue or the extension division bulletins, it undoubtedly has the largest mailing list of any of the department offices in the University.

STORIES WITH PUNCH CHOICE OF SOLDIER
To while away the dull hours of the uneventful trip back to America, the men on transports want light, diverting fiction. Western adventure stories and detective stories are needed by the American Library association to supply this demand, according to Miss Helen McRaith, city librarian.
Books full of action and adventure are the sort which are read by all mean, while problem novels and society novels are read by only a few. Among the authors who are always popular with the soldiers might be mentioned Rex Beach, B.M. Bower, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Zane Grey, Henry Herbert Knipps, O. Henry, Peter B. Kyne, E. Phillips Oppenheim, Mary Roberts Rinehart, Bertrand W. Sinclair, Booth Tarkington, Stewart Edward White, Harry Leon Wilson and Harold Bell Wright.

DANCING EXHIBITION
Lovers of aesthetic and folk dancing are invited to be held by the department of physical education for women, at 8:30 Tuesday. evening, June 3, in the women's gymnasium.
Classes composed of 50 University women will furnish material for group and solo dances. Effective costumes are being planned. There will be no charge of admission.

MAKE TOY AEROPLANES
Musicians Take Great Interest in Crippled Children
Good fairies realize that children like music.
And because there are good fairies among University people, twenty crippled children from the hospital on the West Side were conveyed in automobiles to the armoury, Sunday afternoon, where they listened wide-eyed to the most wonderful music they had ever heard.
Not a small part of the entertainment was the interest manifested in them by Emil Oberhoffer, conductor, and by the other musicians. One of the players found time during the concert to make a little paper aeroplane for each child, and to play with them a bit after theperformance [sic].
"Where you you want to go now?" asked "Bunny," as he grasped the steering wheel after it was all over.
"Oh, drive down town a little while," said one of the little fellows in the back seat.
"It costs five dollars. If you have the money to pay, all right."
"Sure, we'll see you later about that."

OPEN LECTURE
Prof. G.J. Keller will deliver a lecture to the freshman engineers Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, in the physics hall. Other persons interested are invited to attend the lecture.

SPEND BY CHECK
Students who maintain adequate balances at this bank and spend by check usually have more available cash at the end of the month than those who carry their funds in their pockets and spend as they go.
Money in the pocket offers a constant incentive to spend. Money in the bank offers a constant incentive to keep it there—and add more to it.
Thoughtful people do not take the trouble to write checks for trivial things. By doing without the trivial things they accumulate enough to buy worth-while things.
