Arrangements have been made with 

 those in charge of library affairs so 

 that anyone holding a forestry library 

 card, a number of which have been 

 printed for foresters, signed by Pro- 

 fessor Roth, may draw a key to the for- 

 estry library in the evening. The li- 

 brary is thus at the disposal of students 

 any evening up to the time of the clos- 

 ing up of the Engineering Building, and 

 ing new privilege is being generally made 

 use of. 



The Club received notice from the 

 Great Northern Railroad that it would

The Club Treasurer's report shows 

 the amount of available funds now on 

 hand to be $78.39 ; the amount set aside 

 for the field day fund $30.50; that re- 

 ceived from the sale of membership 

 tickets $91.50; and also that the Club 

 had a balance from last year of $12.39.

About a month ago the graduates 

 gathered together and elected officers, 

 W. W. W'eber, President, and J. L. 

 Richards, Secretary and Treasurer. A 

 few days later the seniors met and did 

 likewise, electing Conrad Hammer, Pres- 

 ident and Ribot Valiton Secretary and 

 Treasurer. The graduates decided to 

 have frequent meetings at each of which 

 one of them should talk, to discuss the 

 ethics of the profession and technical 

 subjects of immediate importance. The 

 seniors voted to place a picture of 

 the "Senior Foresters" in the Michigan- 

 ensian, and to adopt canes distinct from 

 those carried by Literary students in 

 the engraving at least; also to establish 

 a custom in the Department of a senior 

 banquet to the graduating class. 



This is the first formation of gradu- 

 ate or senior foresters into classes sep- 

 arate from the Literary classes. 



NEWS FROM THE FIELD. 



In November Professor Scherer ('12) 

 blew in from Ohio State, where he has 

 taken charge with his usual vigor. He 

 told the boys of the "fish pole" method 

 of determining age classes in Western 

 Yellow Pine, but did not seem convin- 

 ced. Come often Scherer. 



In October news came of the marriage 

 *of Boerker ('11) to Miss Bostwick; and 

 of Conover ( } l3) to Miss Fennell. The 

 congratulations and best wish of the 

 Club! 



Professor Walter Mulford has accept- 

 ed a position with the University of Cali- 

 fornia and will move to Berkeley next 

 summer. California and the West gain 

 a fine man ; California will build up a 

 school of high order ; Cornell mourns 

 the loss. To the Club a few thousand 

 miles will not even cause a quiver; Mul- 

 ford is our Mulford just the same. All 

 good wishes go with you !
