A new type of examination for college students is being tried out at Columbia University. Instead of a few questions on the high spots of tQe course, the new examination consists of a number of statements concerning matters previously gone over, some of which are false and others true. The student makes a plus sign next to those he considers true and a minus mark beside the false. This affords no chance for the bluffer to exercise his art, as two-thirds of the examination consists of the new method. Dr. J. W. Vizafd of Pleasant Mills was in the city this morning on business.

Monroe only lost three games throughout this season, while Decatur lost five games—two games were won by the Mouroe teams.

The game was close and every inch of tho ground covered from start to finish. We again reiterate "strange things will take place at most anything."
