Last year he conducted the psychological examination of the federal hoard men for Utah. Th's included mental examination of ex-serVicc men nvho applied for vocational training. Also, under the direction of br. Snoddy, he studied and wrote up a survey of 13,-000 school children for the state board of insanity. Mrs. Jennie H.

DOPT SEniORSOlVEUP BOW FRONT PLACE IS VELL Dl RED i 'Steps Are Taken to Prevent Theft of Clothing From School I l.nsL year a crer.t deal of stealin ; were taken from the halls in one day. Tt was evident that something should be done, but no one seemed to know just how it could be accomplished, .Some plans were tried hut at no avail. he stealing only became worse, and the last two weeks of school it reached a mark never touched before. Practically every night ns high as four or five boys were without caps. Finally many of the boys, who had been honest up until then, became tired of bujing caps, after losing three or four, and took - some other cap that fitted them, whenever their own was , found to be missing. This only made things worse-It was hoped that this evil would vanish, with the end of the school year, and that there would be no stealing this year, but it began again ae soon as school started and became as bad as ever. With the object in view of finding some method for eliminating this evil, a meeting of the boys was called in the study hall. The purpose of the meeting was announced and then the boys were allowed to express themselves.. : welly n McKay was among the first to speak. Jie told the boys of the calamity that had befallen the school and related a personal instance. He said that last year he had bought three caps in a very short time and that when the fourth was stolen he became tired of buying them and took the first one that fitted them. Then Brother Ricks spoke. He said that the very thing, that Lewellyn had spoken about, was what 7nade the evil of stealing caps so hard to eliminate, lie told the boys, that if they would all refrain from borrowing caps, when their own were found to be missing, it would be a comparatively easy job to catch the real thieves, who took the caps down and sold them but, that as it was, one could not tell whether the person taking the cap really 'intended to re'. jrm it or whether he meant to sell it. The boys agreed that what lire t her Kicks said was Douglas then introduced a resolution to the. effect that all stu j ing was adjourned Since the meeting there has been comparatively little, if any. stealing at Weber. Many students do not trust the others yet though, it seems for they carry their caps in their pockets, or inside of their snirts, but it looks like it is unnecessary since the resolution was adopted. We are all hoping that the good record will continue and that Weber will soon outlive its bad reputation. President Douglas Issues Ideal Advice to Weber Students We were pleased to receive the following message of Student Association President Melbourne Douglas to we students. We are certain that he is right : ""Fellow Students: Let us all try just one plan this year, and that to .exercise tact or common sense.

Perhaps the most notable instance of support shown this year is that of the seniors in giving up the front row in devotional to the college class. Jn the senior class meeting held Wednesday, September 21, Leon Bush, class president, presented the proposition to the seniors and at the same time made a strong plea, for its adop tion. The vote taken showed the seniors to be unanimously in favor of relinquishing the place which tradition j had conceded to them. This act was in accordance with class 22"g past support of the college. Last spring the class stood loyally be-i hind the college candidate for student body president, although that position usually falls to a member of the next year's senior class. The seniors are to be commended for this act of loyalty. It is hoped that the other classes will support the college as much. oo- THEOLOGY Church Schools Institute Improved Plan of Teaching Of Subject "There never was a time when the peope needed the inspiration of the Bible more than they do now."

IEYN9TE SPEECH rri i President's Thursday Talk Is Filled With Wise Admonitions The keynote of this year's October conference, as outlined by President Grant was to a void debt and practice thrift . These two a dmoni lions furnish the cream of adice in need in the world today. i An extract from his sermon fol- lous: "The debt habit is responsible for! the- great maioritv of the troubles that our people get into. I have an abid ing and perfect faith in the uprightness, the loyalty, the integrity of the Latter-day Saints to God. They know that they are doing God's work on the earth. The growth of our mission work in spite of the hard times is evidence of the power of God. We now have 17 9 S missionaries in the field, and the results during the last six months are 6 5 per cent grea ter than in the corresponding six months of last year. "I admonish the people to cease writing" letters to have their sons released from mission work after they have served about eighteen months, when they snould stay in the field at least two'years or two and one-half years. It is a crime, almost, to take a young man from his mission work just at the time he has gained the spirit and power to perform his work as God would have him do it. "If the Latter-day Saints would prosper, I urge them to be honest with God and pay their tithing in full, never to allow a dollar to come into their hands that God does not receive his 10 per cent. God does not need the money, but all of these calls for funds outside of tithing are the lessons through which we are perfected and' made fit in spirit to become the sons of God. KEEP MO.VEY AT HOME. "I ask that the people observe and keep the 'Word of Wisdom.' Jt is a crime, almost, to disregard it. Every single dollar that goes out of the country for tea, coffee, tobacco or liquor that is sent out by the Latter-day Saints should be kept at home. M do not produce these things. If all the money that has been t-ent out oi: the state for tne things forbidden by (he 'Word of Wisdom' ( God's revelation), could lie kept at home, we could now be among the most oros- I porous of the siaies."
