Plans Practically Completed lor San Francisco Encampment If the plans now being made by Lieutenant (Merman mature, the W. 8. C. cadet corps will have for San Francisco on May 31 by way of Portland, arriving at the exposition June 3. The total cost to each cadet will be about (30, which amount will cover all necessary expenses, includ ing admission to the fair. The cadets will encamp just outside the fair grounds in quarters fully equipped with all camp comforts except bed clothing, which each cadet must fur nish for himself. The actual encamp ment will last from June 3 until June 9, at which time the regiment will be disbanded. Although part of each day will be given to the cadets for pleasure seeking, the military exhibi tions and competitive drills will be held as usual. Certain companies will be detailed as escorts to state or national dignitaries taking part in the ceremonies of the exposition. The tickets will give each cadet a 30-day stopover at San Francisco, if desired, and a reduction in price to those who return only as far as Port land. If these liberal terms are to be secured from the railroads and from the fair management 200 students must take the trip. At present thero are nearly 400 cadets in the regi- ' ment, and in addition some upper classmen are re-enrolling in order to avail themselves of the opportunity to see the fair, so no difficulty is ex pected to arise in securing the mini mum of 200 cadets.

White started Sat urday on her 3000-mile trip through lour states. This trip, as others in the past have been, is made In the Interests of the State College women, especially with regard to vocational guidance. During the next two months Miss White will hold over a hundred in terviews besides giving talks in the various cities of her route. tier ob ject in making the trip is to come in contact with the women of the Pacific Northwest who are doing things In the world. The women who are making good In law, medicine, or any of the numerous occupations in which women are engaged she will meet, interview, and interest in the women of the State College. The primary object of all the work which is being done along voca tional lines lor the women of the College, is the placing of each woman, when she graduates, In the vocation which she can best follow as her life work. At the present time the women who graduate from the college are prepared to teach and find teaching positions. If, however, a young woman decides to go into some other line of work, she must obtain the place for herself and may have to teach a year or two before she can take up her chosen work. It is to eliminate this one or to years which often separate a woman from her life work after graduation from college that Dean White is laboring. "1 hope in time to be able to place every woman who graduates from the State College in that line of work which she desires to follow and for which she is suited," says Dean White. She is interesting successful women in the women of the College. Already hundreds of women in Port land, Tacoma. Spokane, and other cities of the Northwest have been in terested and shown the possibilities of the system which Dean White is endeavoring to build up. An index is kept of all these business women and a large number of names will he added as soon as the present trip ia concluded. Some idea or the territory which will he covered can be obtained from the Dean's itinerary: April 3-6, Spokane; 0-8. Pullman; 8-11, Bote man; 11-13, Helena; 13-14, Mis soula; 15-18, Spokane. Cheney; 18 --19, Kennewick; 19-20, North Yak ima; 20-21, Ellensburg; 21-23, Seat tle; 23-24, Bellingham; 24-2 C, Ever ett, Snohomish; 28-28, Seattle; 28 --30, Tacoma: 30-May 1, Olympia; 1-3, Tacoma; 3, Chehalis; 3-6, Portland; 6-7, Eugene; 7-8, Corvallis: 8-9, Sa lem; 9-10, Portland; 10. Pasco; 10 --12, Walla Walla: 12. Pasco. 12-13. Lewiston, 13; Pullman. The annual Women's Vocational Conference will be held May 21 and 22, after the dean's return. "Oc cupations for Women in the Country" will be the general trend which 1 the I vocational meetings for the women of the College will take. ' Before last year the meetings had been of a general vocational nature. Beginning last year the meetings have been specialized and pertaining to a certain distinct phase of work. This specialization has been carried out to a high degree In Wisconsin, Cornell, and several other of the larger Eastern institutions. A rather unique plan will be fol lowed In that the program will not be announced before it Is given and the speakers will not know their order until the morning of the day on which they are to appear. The persons who will take part in the meetings will be the guests of the young women of the College and every effort will be made to make the W. S. C. women acquainted with them. Those who took part in the meetings last year have been invited to return as guests and many will un doubtedly accept the Invitation. TO ADVERTISE COLLEGE BY MEANS OF FILMS New Invention Will l.ring College to Schools of the State Registrar F. T. Barnard and J. A. Tormey, head of the Extension De partment, are working on a new means of providing education and amusement for the school children of I the state and at the same time adver tising the college. For the last year the College has had on the road, traveling from one county superin tendent to another, a stereoptican machine with lantern slides, which has been doing good work. The first cost and expense of shipping such an outfit, however, is almost prohibitive. A new invention, however, consisting of a machine weighing only six pounds.a nd using films .instead of slides, will enable the work to be done at a much smaller expense. The j films for the new machine cost but %V* cents apiece, as opposed to is cents for the old style slides. If the plan is approved by the regents, four of these machines, with four differ ent sets of films, illustrating lectures on natural study and working in pic tures of the College for advertising purposes, will be sent out. PIANO GIVEN AWAY IN CONTEST The P. ('odd Furniture House of Colfax is conducting a very unique plan of advertising In the form of a geographical contest which will cre ate an unusual amount of interest and no little competition among the pupils in the schools throughout Whitman county. The grand prize is a $350 piano, a prize well worth working for, and in addition to the piano, five other prizes are offered, consisting of scholarships in music valued at $40 each, together with a very substan tial credit towards the purchase of a piano. besides $1000 in lesser amounts ranging from $50 to $100. A feature well worth mentioning is that there are no blanks. Every contestant is assured of an award varying in value from $50 to the $350 piano and there is no doubt but that an unusual amount of inter est will be shown before the contest closes April 2 1. L. F. Childs, the wholesale repre sentative of the Kohler & Chase company, was in Pullman this week making preparations for the contest and in an interview said: "We are sparing no time, energy or money to make this contest the most wonder ful campaign ever inaugurated in Whitman county, and the interest that will be shown in the different schools throughout the entire coun try will bo marvelous because each school will be indirectly in competi tion with the others through the pu pils, and some of the questions will not be easily answered. In speaking of the Kohler & Chase company Mr. Chi Ida said: "Our company _ the largest concern in the west doing a wholesale and re tall piano business and maintaining wholesale warehouses in Portland, Seattle, Spokane, Los Angeles, and both wholesale and retail warerooms in San Frlnclsco and Oakland. San Francisco being our home office for the past 50 years, we occupy and own our 11-story building there. We control the greatest line of standard grade pianos and player pianos In the United States, having the exclu sive sale of the Knabe, Fischer, Vose & Sons, Emerson, Shoninger, Hobart M. Cable, Estey. Kohler & Campbell. besides our own products in the Koh ler & Chase and Andrew Kohler pianos and player pianos. The questions to be answered will no doubt in some instances require reference to the United States sta tistics but the prizes offered are of such value as to warrant special ef forts on the part of the contestants.
