HOUSEHOLD ARTS May brings us very near to the close of another school year and as far as the Household Arts Department is concerned, a very success- ful year. The Class has continued to grow from the very beginning and at present there are approximately 35 to 40 girls enrolled. Many beautiful materials are being made up, to be worn thruout the summer. While King Tut seems to predominate, the vari-colored lighter fabrics have not lost their popularity and the blouses and capes also come in for their share. ' I should say that the Sewing Course at 0. M. I. has done more to induce early rising than any known project. For awhile it was all the style to arrive anywhere from 9 A. M. on indefinitely, but then the two Swings began to arrive about 8:50. This was too much for Estelle Frick, so she began to arrive about 8:40. Then Louise Gar- funkle comes so seldom and has so much to do when she does come, that she schedules her arrival for 8:30. Anna Marie Marmet began to think it necessary to help open the building, so you can see what 0. M. I. has accomplished. One certainly can hear all the gossip and news of the day if she only keeps her ears open. We all have just heard that Jane Sullivan decided to wait until September, but was married Monday, April 30 She and her husband are spending their honeymoon in California where they will stay until September. Lucy Draper has just announced her engagement to Mr. Max Fuller but they do not intend to be married until the late fall or early Winter. Ruth Ulland is to be married to Mr. Lane Todd on the 16th of May and is now very busy and occupied With a round of entertain- mg. Guida Marx, Virginia Kemper Larson, Dorothy Hay and Dorothy Wilson make their appearance fairly regularly, but Gertrude Win- disch and Ruth Cooper have been missed the last month, during which time they have been in the East, shopping and visiting. Laura May Wilson, Ruth Wilson, Hazel Dixon and Geneva Schwartz come down every once in awhile, while Laura Pounsford, Helen Hoffman, Sue Jane Stanage and Mary Hinsch are some of the regulars. If you see Johnny haunting the 5th hoor, you can be pretty sure Molly is at work. Reba Morton divides her time between the Mike office and the 5th floor and altho Cecil Smith has not been around for some time, she is contemplating getting down to work again next week. Beatrice Dyer has not been down lately, but Mickey Lockwood and Marjorie Diehl are making their whole summer outfit. eCharlotte Muhlhauser ROMANCE ?

STRUCTU RA L DESIGN GRADUATES James P. McDonough Adolph Kirchner Another year has rushed by, and we pause a moment to think of what we have accomplished. Of the men who entered upon their studies with this class, Septem- ber 2, 1921, only two remain to graduate. We look around us, and by counting the empty desks and by deep concentration we are able to re- member a number of faces and some of the names of the twenty-eight men who were forced to drop along the trail. Some left on account of sickness and were sent to hospitals, east, west, north, and south. Some were not fitted by nature or inclination to achieve success in this line of work. On account of time spent in the hospitals, one of the twenty- eight has been put back with the next class to graduate. But the two men who go out into the business world in June to enter again into competition with their fellowmen will do so, knowing that they are well fitted for the work by reason of the time and effort spent in this school. Because of the fact that all of the men enrolled in this course are Veteransy Bureau trainees, it is doubly hard to graduate a class of any size. The disabilities which have been incurred by these men make school work a drudge and an impossibility at times. But we hope that this class will make up in enthusiasm and ambition what it lacks in size. An example is ever before our minds in Mr. Thomas W. Peters, Who graduated in l22, and who now is employed by the Harig Construc- tion Co. and has made good. The aid of the government and the education that has been given us at this school is deeply appreciated, and it is the fervent prayer of the class that we shall justify the faith shown in us and ever be a credit to our school. -Earl L. Jackson SECOND YEAR MACHINE DESIGN. Our class approaches the completion of the school-year with but seven of its original fifteen members remaining. Eight of our men have harkened to the promptings of ambition and have gone out to assume their share of responsibilties in a busy world. On the other hand we were recently reinforced by the addition of six capable young men from the first year class; thus bringing our class back to its original numerical strength. Those of us who are leaving in June do so with the one regret that the pleasant associations we have enjoyed can not be kept up forever. But the pleasant recollections are forever ours, and if by chance Dame Fortune should favor us in the days to come, We shall not be so unappreeiative as to deny full credit and acknowledgment to those whose effort have helped us win success. GRADUATING IN JAN. ,24. GRADUATING IN JUNE. George Meinhardt. Leo. T. Parker. Michael T. OtConnor. . Edward J. Ottensmeyer. Earl Norton. W'alter S. Thompson. John C. Townsley. Henry A. Oster. Wm. M. Schrenker. George M. Vester. Walter S. Dukamier. James V. Lebkisher. Harry P. Espach. Mr. Thompson, our class literary genius, informs us that if his luck just holds out for the next few months he will take unto him- self a sweet woman for life. Schrenker came to school every day for a week with a collar and tie on all set for the class picture. But the day the picture was finally taken caught Schrenker napping, as you may judge from the picture itself. Lebkishefs going back to Urbana when its all over. There's only one shop in that big burg; so if Leb. doesnit make good, hell have to move again.
