N.U_ ENDOWMENT FUND INCREASED Students and Alumni Help Swell Total To date undergraduates and the faculty of Northwestern university have raised over $200,000 while friends of the uni- versity have subscribed $217,350 towards the institution's endowment fund to be used for the erection of a large down- town university building at Kast Chi- cago avenue and the lake shore, Chi- cago. When it comes to endowed uni- versities, Northwestern comes ninth on a list headed by Harvard with $47,000,000; Northwestern University so far has only an endowment fund of $5,800,000. These figures in the form of charts and plats were placed on' view in the club-room of Paten gymnasium, Evans- ton, last week, for the benefit of visiting alumni and alumnae, who, it is seen, also have contributed to the growth of their alma mater by subscribing $78,135. The trustees of the university since January 1 have donated $201,705 towards the en- dowment fund. The university is out to raise $5,500,000. Other maps show the distribution of men and women who at one time at- tended the Northwestern University and an cxamination reveals the fact that they are scattered all over the union, with the concentration, of course, centering in Illinois and Indiana. Other exhibits in- clude a copy of every bit of material published by the campaign committee. FARM PUPILS GRADES BEST Girls Beat Boys in Recent Iowa Survey Des Moines, Towa.--The students that stand highest in their high school classes in this State come: from the farms, according to the results of a survey made by Professor Charles Deich, of Simpson College. Professor Deich bases his report upon information from 316 high school principals, who supervise 6,000 high school pupils in this State. Of the 316 honor students 217 live in the country. Girls outnumber boy honor students there being 220 girls to 96 boys lead- ing their classes. The feminine stu- dents also average higher grades than the boys. The young ladies av- erage 95 per cent in eleven subjects, while the boys could attain that aver- age in only four subjects. The blue-eyed, brown-haired types lead their fellow-students, the survey shows. Only five "carrot tops" were listed in the honor student rolls. The ordinary American family led in the best pupil products. One hundred and eighteen of the students came from families of the third class, 41 from the fourth class and only 32 from the independently wealthy. Stamps have not yet been presented for payment, according to a Treas- ury Department statement received this week by Postmaster Shantz These securities have matured and no longer bear interest. Owners of Government securities should look over their holdings, pick out their Victory Notes and 1918 War Savings Stamps, and present them for immediate pay- ment or exchange them for U. S. Treasury Savings Certificates. The Puritan This attractiveee- glass is one of our own design. Its contours, properlyproportioned, armonize with the features.

IF ICE CREAM were graded, you would always buy it according to brand--just as you buy "Extra Creamery" butter, or "Strictly Fresh" eggs or "Certified" milk when you want highest quality. Standards are maintained for your protection. Yet such an important food product as ice cream is not sold to you by grade. Ever Think of That? When you do not INSIST upon a PARTICULAR BRAND of ice cream, but, instead, permit a dealer to sub- stitute an inferior brand--you accord him a privilege you would not think of granting in the case of butter or eggs or milk. The fact that HYDROX GUERNSEY Ice Cream is "CARBONATED"--frozen in an atmosphere a hundred time purer than air--should mean much to you from the standpoint of PURITY. The fact that "CARBINATION" intensifies flavor should. interest you keenly so far as DELI- CIOUSNESS is concerned. And the fact that HYDROX GUERNSEY Ice Cream contains 75% more pure cream than the State Law requires should satisfy you absolutely on the score of high FOOD VALUE. "HYDROX GUERNSEY" is to ice cream what "Extra Creamery" is to butter, what "Strictly Fresh" is to eggs and what "Certified" is to milk --BUT WITH THIS ONE DIFFERENCE--it costs no more than other brands about which there may be some doubt. Were dealers to grade the ice cream you buy, you would know which brand gave you the most value for your money. Your dealer understands this perfectly. There is a HYDROX Agency near your home.

FACE Brick gives you a beautiful home . L --3 choice of an almost infinite variety of color effects. It gives you a fire-safe house that will last for generations--a house that can readily be sold or rented. A Face Brick house costs a little more than houses of less beautiful and less durable materials, but its savings in repairs, paint- ing, insurance rates, fuel costs and depre- ciation make it, in a few years, the most economical house you can build. Can you afford not to build with Face Brick? Come in and talk the matter over or send for "The Story of Brick," which gives all the facts. Chicago Face Brick Association Bonner-Marshall Brick Co. S.
