and the second by the arcadia attend ance at either of these dances at drown hall is not restricted te fraternity men alone for all lehigh students are privileged to attend emphasis is placed on the fact that the dances are to be con ducted with necessary propriety for due to previous unfortunate occasions the deportment of a few of the students was such as to cause the faculty to frown up on house parties in general at lehigh the recent ruling of the arcadia that any student ob noxiously intoxicated at the af fairs will be summarily dealt with by that body will of course hold true this house party is in the form of more or less a trial and its success or failure will in all probabilities determine whether or not the other part ies of the year will be held here hence the necessity

aid bureau it consisted of about fifteen men all of which were athletically inclined this organization enabled these men to pay part of their ex penses through college thus al - lowing lehigh to gain a greater number of athletes at present it is hoped that at some time in the near future the association will be on such a plane that it can take care of not only men who are athletes but any man who is unable to stand the full expenses of college in this way they would be able to help fel lows who would be a value to the school other than in the line of athletics most of the money made by the students self aid is made in the fall during football sea • son the chief reason for this is at this time they publish the football programs besides this they are the agents of some of the stores and companies about town these are as follows parr brothers shoes zim mermans clothing lehigh steam laundry lehigh tailor worsley's gift shop these are the best compan ies in town in their respective lines and it is up to the student body to patronize them they pay a certain amount to the self aid for the privilege of having them as their agents and it is only fair to support them thus helping to keep some of the athletes in college there will be a meeting of the students self aid bureau next friday night at 7.00 o'clock . new directory on the press the work of compiling the names and addresses of the le high students for the annual di rectory has been concluded and the directory was sent to press last thursday the volume has entailed a great amount of time in arranging and will be
