istration, more than he is really !,.- ..,. Registrar lVIcCall Often overlooked is the job of keeping our library of fifty- KEEPERS UF THE BUUK5 VVhen we first enter college, one of our first contacts is with the office of the Registrar. We see a great deal of the office during the course of our study here, yet we little realize the huge amount of work put forth by our Registrarls office. The preparation, publication and mailing of our col- lege catalogue is a large project in itself. Preparing time schedules of classes for the year, mailing application and admission blanks, approving entrance units and advanced credits takes a good deal of time and effort to establish effi- cient coordination. The Registrar's office, as a means of information, takes much time in keeping tabulated informa- tion at the fingertips of the workers. The time and work necessary to keep permanent records of the grades requires much effort. Slips must be sent parents, grades summarized pe- riodically for deans and advis- ors, and averaged for fraterni- ties and sororities from time to time. All in all, we have men- tioned only a few of the odd jobs of the Registrar. He plays a big part in our school admin- seven thousand catalogued vol- umes and several odd thousand uncatalogued documents and pamphlets, at the finger tips of the student body. Miss Adams last year catalogued and super- vised the preparation of two thousand four hundred and eighty-four volumes for the shelves, including the final cat- aloguing of the experiment sta- , l tion library. During the winter L'l'm1'1f 1 PM quarter six thousand nineteen books were circulated from the stacks and six thousand three hundred sixty-four from our reserve shelves. Mrs. Payson has done a mighty fine job in keeping our entire library system on such an efficient basis. Her prompt and courteous attention is appreciated by all. Important to the successful operation of any college is its 1neans of handling finance under the supervision of M1'. A. A. Cameron, treasurer. Such funds as matriculation, reg- istration, diploma, and animal husbandry sales department, all require separate booking. Such fees as the swimming, transcript, dairy industry, rodent control and physical plant are also itemized and listed separately in the treasurerls huge job of keeping books of the college. On top of all this work the college also handles a good deal of the fraternity and sorority collections, which in itself is no small undertaking. 'SO ll given credit for.

Harrison The most helpful friend of the student is Dean James Hamilton. ln his present capacity, serving as Dean of Men, his many helpful suggestions rendered to the students as a whole has given him a close in- timacy with the student body.

T'here's a lot of variation in the Work of the different corrals and the hands are usually picked out for the,corral Work they like. The work is pretty well laid out by the bosses and the hands carry on from day to day. Our students are the hands and sorta push out into the same style, centering their work in the corrals they're most interested in. The deans of our departments are our corral bosses and the corrals make up our various fields of learning. The corrals are not so far apart as a fellow would think for they all combine to make up the entire ranch. Then again they each depend upon the ranch administration in order to run as slick shod as they do.
