The association plans to raise a

much more as possible. The money

duates. According to an estimate
made by university authorities two
years ago, two hundred dollars will
take a student through his senior
year.
Former teachers, pupils of Harrel
Institute and personal friends of Mrs.
Brewer comprise the membersip of
the association. They had discussed
a scholarship In the university as a
suitable memento for Mrs. Brewer.
whose entire life was given to help-
ing girls and boys through school.
President Brooks suggested as a
scholarship, and his suggestion was
memorial a loan fund rather than a
agreed upon by all the members.
Mrs. Brewer was a resident of Nor-
man for number of years. Her
husband, T. F. Brewer, preceded Prof.
A. C. Parsons as high school inspec-
tor, and her daughter was at once on
the university faculty. Prof. T. H.
Brewer, head of the English depart-
ment, is her nephew.
The Mary E, Brewer memorial
fund is the forerunner of a number
of loan funds which are being
negotiated for with several of the
wealthy men in the state.

It never saw a battle
And there never was the rattle
Of musketry beneath its ample
folds;
But it wore out just the same
And so finally it came
To us, all worn and full of holes.
The Militia Flag.
Hanging on the front of the trophy
case in room A105 is the flag, or
what remains of it, that has floated
in front of Col. Roy V. Hoffman's
tent at the headquarters of the First
regiment, Oklahoma Infantry, since
the coming of statehood in 1907.
When Major John Alley returned
from San Benito, Texas, on a fur-
lough this week he brought the old
flag with him and presented it to
Dr. Stratton D. Brooks to be kept
by the university.
During the fourth annual summer
session of the university members
of Company A, First Girl Patriots,
under the leadership of Captain
Marian S. Brooks raised the neces-
sary funds for the purchase of a new
reginental flag which was sent to
Major Alley, who preneted it to
Colonel Hoffman and the members
of the First regiment. The old re-
gimental colors show nard use and
have to be handled with the utmost
care. Most of the lower half of the
colors is missing. As soon as "pos-
sible the flag will be framed and
will be hung In some part of the
president's quarters.

Talk Into Your Telephone
SOMETIME ago, while a business man was tele-
phoning, a friend in his office heard him say to the
person at the other end t>f the wire: "I don't hear you
clearly. Are your lips close to the transmitter? Ah!
That is much better. I hear you perfectly now."
When the telephone talk ended he turned to his friend
and said: "Some people forget that they can't get the
best results when telephoning unless they speak
DIRECTLY INTO the transmitter."
Did it ever occur to you that you might not be using
your telephone the right way? Do you speak sideways,
speak above, speak below, speak vix inches away from the
mouthpiece of your telephone, or do you speak directly
Into the transmitter?
