GREAT INCREASE IN ENROLLMENT AT UNIVERSITY With one-sixth more students enrolled than at this time a year ago, the University of California has begun the work of another year. It is now second in size of American universities and tenth in enrollment among all the universities of the world. The enrollment just a year ago was larger by one-seventh than the registration the previous August. Since this year's growth is one-sixth, the rate of increase has actually accelerated. The freshman class is larger by a fifth than last year's. There are 1,300 freshmen. This is believed to be the largest freshman class in the history of all American universities. The total registration for the year of students in regular courses will exceed 5,300. If the summer session students be counted in, then the year's registration will exceed 8,000. Of the American universities, only Columbia is larger. Even this 8,000 is without counting the students in the University farm school at Davis, the boys in the Wilmerding trades school, maintained by the University in San Francisco for the training of boys in carpentering, plumbing, electrical work, drafting, etc.; nor the Visitors and auditors in classes at Berkeley, who come regularly and in considerable numbers without being enrolled. Besides these 8,000 there will be also fact is that enrollment at Berkeley for the freshman year has become so large that that institution is most anxious to curtail the number of young men and women entering, and has warmly endorsed the new law which makes the post-graduate instruction at home possible. Moreover, hundreds of young men and women who go to Berkeley fall out of their classes after the freshman or sophomore years. The university prefers to receive students who thus have passed their first two years of the course at home, with the added probability that such students will remain until they graduate. The university, as will be seen in another article on this page, has at the present time enrolled more students than any other great institution in the United States with the single exception of Columbia. It stands tenth in respect to enrollment among the universities of the world, and its rolls this year carry more students, especially in the freshman year than ever before. Up to the 22d of the month 1,300 freshmen had registered for the coming school year, which is an increase of 660 over last year. Especially is this new method of higher education to be commended to the people in the lessened cost of tuition. A four-years' course of study at Berkeley means no little expense to parents, and yet so thoroughly well established is the idea that boys and girls must nowadays be given all advantages of our educational system that enrollment of students at the university is such as to be one of the wonders of the educational world. More than that, many parents are averse to sending their children to such great distance away from home in their young and tender years. Many high school students graduate at 17 or 18 years of age, and we hold that at this age they are too young to be sent away from home to college. Rather is it preferable to keep them at home for PERSONALS A Clarence R. Fickel Lemke, 19, both of Fulton granted permission to Coffee fresh from to 45 cents per pound R. C. Petermann Cass Jerome E.

Of the American universities, only Columbia is larger. Even this 8,000 is without counting the students in the University farm school at Davis, the boys in the Wilmerding trades school, maintained by the University in San Francisco for the training of boys in carpentering, plumbing, electrical work, drafting, etc.; nor the Visitors and auditors in classes at Berkeley, who come regularly and in considerable numbers without being enrolled. Besides these 8,000, there will be also the great number of students to be enrolled this year in the new correspondence courses, offered by the university in a wide variety of fields, from home economics to political science, philosophy, and engineering. There will be also the persons who attend regular series of university extension lectures in various parts of California, many of whom will receive credit toward a degree for attending these extension lectures in their own home towns. The enrollment at Berkeley up to the second day of registration was 4,645, or 660 more than on the corresponding date of last year. Of the 4,645 there were 1,500 new undergraduates, and, of these 1,500 new undergraduates, 1,300 were freshmen. The graduate students numbered 531, or 18 per cent more than on a corresponding date last year. This increase of 660 in regular students in a single year exceeds the total enrollment at some of the famous New England privately endowed colleges, such, for instance, as Williams, and is almost as much as the total enrollment of many state universities, such, for instance, as the University of Virginia, founded 90 years ago. There has been no lessening of vigilance in insisting upon high standards for admission. Great insistence has been laid upon the requirement that candidates for admission shall present high school recommendations or shall pass examinations proving that they are fully and adequately prepared to undertake a university course in preparation for the career they have chosen—be it engineering, agriculture, law, medicine, commerce, banking, applied science, pure science, home economics. No student is admitted without passing satisfactorily the physical and medical examinations, so that it may be certain that his health fits him to undertake a university course. Evidence of successful vaccination is required for admission. Opportunity is given, also, by the university infirmary, to all students who wish to avail themselves of the privilege to be vaccinated against typhoid. Over 300 students were so vaccinated against typhoid during the past year. This was asked for parti girls must nowadays be given all advantages of our educational system that enrollment of students at the university is such as to be one of the wonders of the educational world. More than that, many parents are averse to sending their children to such great distance away from home in their young and tender years. Many high school students graduate at 17 or 18 years of age, and we hold that at this age they are too young to be sent away from home to college. Rather is it preferable to keep them at home for two years longer, taking this post-graduate course here, and then permitting them at attend the university for two years thereafter. Dr. Hauck is to be congratulated upon taking up this important work, and he will have the cordial approval and approbation of friends of education throughout the community. It brings the great university nearer to the people and will do more to spread the advantages of education in this vicinity than any other one thing which has ever occurred in our public school system. CLOSING FACTORIES The Halfpenny Woolen Factory of Union county, Pennsylvania, which has been in continuous operation for many years, was closed down a few days ago, and 200 hands were thrown out of employment. The manager avers that he has no idea when, if ever, they will start if the Underwood bill is passed, as they could not meet European competition. The Sharpless Separator Company of New York has an establishment at Harburg, Germany, for the manufacture of cream separators. It has another at Westchester, N.Y. If the tariff on separators is removed, either wages in America must come down or the foreign-built machine be imported. As wages in Germany are much lower and labor is the chief expense in producing a separator, the company must close its American manufactory. NEW PRICES ON VEHICLES AND IMPLEMENTS We have marked all vehicles at 20 per cent less than our former prices and as this cuts down our margin close to nothing, these prices will be net and will not allow us to give a cash discount. We are revising all of our prices on every line to a net one price. There has been such a large increase in our volume of business that we are enabled to reduce many of our prices notwithstanding that there has been a substantial increase recently on wagon and implement prices. It is our aim and policy to let our many customers share with us any savings we may make in the expense of doing business. Wickersheim Implement Co. Fullerton science, pure science, home economics. No student is admitted without passing satisfactorily the physical and medical examinations, so that it may be certain that his health fits him to undertake a university course. Evidence of successful vaccination is required for admission. Opportunity is given, also, by the university infirmary, to all students who wish to avail themselves of the privilege to be vaccinated against typhoid. Over 300 students were so vaccinated against typhoid during the past year. This was asked for particularly by students intending to engage in mining, agriculture, field work in engineering, etc., or likely to go to places where the water supply is not dependable, the fly prevalent, or sanitation not of the best. THE RIGHT MAN IN THE RIGHT PLACE Dr. E. W. Hauck, recently appointed principal of the high school, is proving his capability as an advanced instructor in the announcement that the high school will this year take up the important subject of post-graduate work, which means that pupils graduating from the high school who desire to take up a four-years' course at the university may take their first two years of the higher course at home. That is to say, students in the freshman and sophomore years may receive tuition here rather than at Berkeley, and may thereafter spend two years at the university in order to obtain their collegiate education instead of remaining there four years as has hitherto been the custom. This is a grand and a glorious thing for our high school, and will be all the more agreeable to local students in the fact that it has the warm approval of the university. The revival meeting at the big tent, corner Lemon and Broadway, continues to draw big crowds, people coming from all parts of the county to attend. Today Evangelist Brown will preach to women only at 3 o'clock P.M., his subject being "The Brother's Blood," or America's greatest tragedy. This evening the sermon will be to men only, the subject being "Men vs. Hogs," or does the saloon pay? Mr. Brown is a forcible and interesting talker and the musical part of the services under the direction of Mr. Garth, is high class. President Wilson has announced his intention to invite every country in the world that maintains a navy to send a representative ship to take part in the opening of the Panama Canal, January 1, 1915. With the great American fleet as guide the ships will cruise from Hampton Roads, through the canal to San Diego harbor, which will be the first stop. If all nations respond there will be a least 50 first-class battleships at anchor in San Diego harbor at one time. A. Nagel return the first of the week from a long visit to his old Indiana home.

Dyckman killed a splendid six-spike buck during the trip. WE'VE MADE A HIT! We never could see any fun in sitting on the grand-stand and just watching the game.

Wouldn't advise you to think the fireless cooker is going to do away with fuel bills, nor the iceless ice box to keep you cool in the good old summer time. And I can't advise you to make an ice box (altho we do sell good lumber) because you can buy one cheaper than you could make it. It's an open secret to every one that we are willing to be your lumber purveyors and to save you both time and money in the line of building supplies.
