Summary:NAPOLEON We have read that Napoleon was five feet two, in height, but we are not informed as to his "tidkiiess"— This little man was so great that he could drink coffee with a spoon in the cup, eat eggs with his knife or wear a box back coat when that style was as much out of date as a plug hat with a sack coat— Fellows, there are few of us great enough to wear out of date "duds" and while clothes do not make the man, yet as Mr. Henry Vreeland once said "clothes help out a lot when it comes to getting a job*'— We wash to say frankly that when we sell good all wool clothes at $25 to $35 we feel we have not only done some-thing good for the customer—these clothes are right in style workmanship, and fabric—we have marked them on the bas-is of giving value to get volume—for indeed this is going to be a volume year at this store—• Hanson Clothing Co.

With The Societies Lambda Delta Sigma A study of the opera, stars oi the opera and the modern tendencies in operatic roles was made at the weekly mooting of the Lambda Delta Sigma Society Saturday, January 27. H was learned that some singers can count over thirty seven full operas that they have memorized. This implies aside from the native gifts of voice-, music-al talent, and dramatic temperament that there have been years of practice in singing and acting. The exact words of each opera must be memorized, sometimes in. three languages. In grand opera every word must be wed-ded to a certain tone, and every tone to a certain beat of time as a second's deviation might cause a discord. A resume of. Puccini's "Madame Butterfly'' was given after which a number of selections from the best known operas were played. Mondamin The Mondamin Literary Society op-ened its activities for the winter term by electing Jack Larson, president and Magnus Gronningen, vice presi-dent. The main aim of the society during the winter term is 'to hold inter-society rlebates. Every etffort will be directed towards this. Bi-monthly debates with-in the society will be held. A miscellaneous program was given Saturday, January 27. The Mondamin Quartette opened tho program with a song. "Modern Literature" was the topic of a discussion led by Trygve Sunde. The Mondamin Weekly read by Gnstav Schoberg was up to the minute, affording huge enjoyment. A short business session concluded the meeting. Alpha Kappa Chi A study oC tho life of the Eskimo people was made by the A. K. X. Jan-uary 20. A paper on "Amundson In the Polar Regions "showed how much of our information concerning the Es-kimos has boon secured by this great explorer. The Alpha Kappa Chi met In their society room January 27. Various members of the society wore given an opportunity to express their opinions of the mid-semester examinations. An original poem "Examination"' showed the spirit of the coming week. Uubenstcin's "Melody Jn P' arrang-ed for saxophone was played by Eliu-oro Kindo. The "Havagrin' made thoughts of examinations disappear and produced a "Hav-a-grin' on the faces of the lis-teners. Alumni News The sudden death of Mrs. A. Blegen Acad.
