With the exception of the month of April, communicable diseases were far lesi this year than in the corre- sponding months in 1920, it is shown. Comparison of the totals for the six months' period shows a considerable decrease from last year's total, Communicable disease cases re- ported to the health department last year totalled 279,448, while for the six months of 1921 there were only 114,931 reported cases. The decrease of influenza and pneumonia arc the most noticeable. The reported cases of influenza for the first six months of 1920 was 167,75.1 During the first six months of 1921 only 1.694 cases of influenza were reported. Likewise, during this same period last year there were 15,203 cases of pneumonia reported, while in 1921 there were but 6,294 cases. The total cases of all communicable diseases reported for the first six months of 1920 and 1921 by months is as follows: rW Jan. 1920..................... 103,117 Feb. 1920...................... 98.892 Mar. 1920......................24,978 Apr. 1920...................... 8,488 May 1920...........'........... 8,521 June 1920...................... 15,452 Jan. 1921........................ 22,416 Feb. 1921...................... 20.383 Mar. \n\±^JLS^^^Jt_^^®m ~TApl\"T321................. ....7^0,367 May 1921..â„¢^™™....

"When this species was first seen in our borders it was called the China aster," writes Mrs. Evans, "because it came to us from China and its flowers resembled the many radii of a Star. "We are said to-.be"indebted to a Missionary, one DTucarville by nam- who sent some seeds to the Jardin ne Roi about 1730," continues the writer.

STADIUM Ley Plans for Additional Fund Drive to be Launched October 29, when Illlni Play the Michigan Eleven Urffana, 111.â€"Plans are being laid for * fund drive among the alumni of the university to raise additional money needed to build the Illinois new memorial stadium, according to K. W. Clark of the stadium committee The campaign will likely start on October 29, the day of the Michigan football game, on Illinois field, and will continue one week. Reach Every Student The drive will be laid in such a way as to induce each individual stu- dent to offer assistance. The mini- mum quota donation from alumni has been set at $100. while an offering of $200 will be considered an honor qud- ta. With the lesser donation, an alumnus is entitled to an option on one seat in the stadium for ten years or two seats for five years, and as the pledge increases, the number of seats increases in the same ratio. For instance, a $200 pledge entitles the donor to two seats for ten years or four seats for five years. By this method, every person who subscribes to the stadium fund will be assured of a seat to the largest football games of the future. Eighty-seven memorial columns to which many fraternities and sorori- ties have already subscribed will be built in the stadium and are offered to subscribers at $1,000 each. Each column pledge entitles the donor to 20 seats for ten years or 40 seats for five years The stadium will cost $2,000,000 of which students at the university pledged $700,000 during the campaign last spring.

When it wns time to go, there were two fellows who wanted to take me home. I was very much flattered and accepted them both.
