For catalogue, bulletins, announcements, etc., address THE REGISTRAR, State College, Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Alumni Meet. The Pittsburgh alumni gathered at the University Club Saturday evening April 13 to enjoy the good fellowship of their annual dinner and to transact the necessary busi ness. Owing to the lateness of the season and the delay in get ting under way, the dinner was poorly attended. The important relation to and the active cooperation with the college on the part of the alumni was the keynote of the evening and before the dinner was over it was apparent that progress had been made to ward bringing the local body to a realization of our responsibility and usefulness to the association at large and to the college itself. This was the predominant thought around which all the speeches of the even ing were made. Different phases of the work were suggested and commented upon. Prof. Jackson was the guest of honor and his remarks dealt largely with the work of the college during the past year. Peculiarly happy and appropriate at this time were his words. Careful attention was given to everything he said, and many of his thoughts gave inspira tion to the speakers who followed. James L. Hamill Esq. emphasiz ed the duty of the alumni to take a more active and personal interest in college and alumni activities by entering the field of politics. Here -is a “place where Penn SLaLc should be represented. The association is powerless without individual effort and we are in hopes that his plea will bring out some strong man who Will gratefully give to his Alma Mater some of the usefulness for which she has fitted him. Charles H. McKee Esq. urged the associa tion to awake to our individual re sponsibility in interesting the in dustrial concerns in Penn State as an experimental laboratory and as an essential part of their own respective plants. H.D.Mason, Jr., and R. H. Smith suggested plans for the coming year and A. C. Read closed with a stirring criticism of the inactivity of a large portion of the local association. H. Walton Mitchell presided as toastmaster. Officers for the year were elected as follows:—H. D. Mason, Jr., President; Dr. H. T. Price, Vice President; A. K. Little, Secretary; B. F. Bart, Treasurer. The president was authorized to appoint an executive committee of five members. To this committee will be given all of the important work of the local association and it is believed that with such a com mittee and with the President at its head, a large amount of real live work will be done.

Young men often say to me, "What good will a life insurance policy do me if I die ?”. Bless your heart, tell me of anything that will do you any good if you die. But it will do others good. It will help to reimburse that mother or father, if you die, who scratched and saved to put you through college. And if you live and keep up the pay ments to maturity, I can tell you of policies that will not only piotect those you love or to whom you may be indebted for funds.to complete your course, but will pay you back personally at maturity all you put in or more. Do you know that after you have paid one full annual prem ium in my company, should you become totally and permanently dis abled and unable to earn money, your policy will become a fully paid policy for the face of it ? The latest wrinkle in life insurance. Let me tell you about this —also many other things that will surely interest you —and make you money. New York Life Ins.
