This modern depression has caused
our American colleges to revert back
to the ancient system of bartering.
In recent news flashes there have
been several cases of students paying
their matriculation fee with farm
produce.

As a climax to the Bullpup-Mercer
football game this afternoon, a dance
will be held in Woodruff ball tonight
from 9 until 12 o’clock.
Woodruff hall will again be the
scene of a dance Saturday night as
an aftermath of the Georgia-V. P. I.
football game. The V. P. I. football
team has been invited to the dance
Saturday night, as the guests of the
University of Georgia Athletic Asso
ciation.
Many high school students from
all over the state who have been in
vited to the football game Satur
day afternoon are expected to at
tend the dance that night.
Gilmore and Tabor's Georgia Bull
dogs will furnish the music for both
of the dances. This orchestra has
become popular with people all over
the state from its bi-weekly radio
broadcasts from station WTFI and
it has played for all previous uni
versity dances this year.
Weekly university dances were
initiated last spring by H. J. Stege-
man, dean of men, as a means of
furnishing Georgia students with
suitable entertainment over the week
end. Women students, with the ex
ception of first year co-eds, will be
allowed to attend the dances spon
sored by the university, according to
Mrs. A. Rhodes, dean of women.

Charles J. Brockman, associate
professor of chemistry at the Univer
sity of Georgia, is uuthor of a now
book, "The Principles of Electro
chemistry,” recently published by the
I). Van Nostrand company, of New
York.
Thoroughly up-to-date, the book is
said to meet the need for a practical
treatment of the entire field, each
subject and method being treated
only to the extent warranted by their
present day importance. No time is
wasted with detailed descriptions of
obsolete processes.
According to the publishers, the
book gives a brief explanation of
principles, followed by all the es
sential facts of the subject in con
densed form, and all important ap
plications.
The subjects covered In the book
are: organic electrochemistry, elec
