MORE MARRIAGES IN CO-ED COLLEGES I ailed Free* staff <orre»|Mindei>t Defiance, Ohio, Muy 31—If it were not "for the reflection on the college" Miss Jeanette A. Morton, dean of women at Defiance College, would be a strong advocate of the campus marriage. "Any indications to the public, however, that something beside academic study is engrossing the minds of the co-eds is had for the reputation of any college,” she said. On the other hand, Dean Morton declared every year Cupid is shooting his darts more accurately and liberally on the campuses of American colleges and universities. She compiled figures taken from a questionnaire sent to Deans of Women in American co-educational schools. “The results were startling." she said. "Eastern and western schools alike, everywhere, young men and 1 young women are refusing to make I marriage await their graduation. "We cannot say that this is mere- ! ly an ‘on year’ for campus marriages ! and that it will be different next spring, because the marriages have been increasing every year since the I war.’’ The cause, Dean Morton asserted, is to be found in the growing inde- , pendence of the feminine youth of America. "She has learned to follow her own- decisions in most matters. When the right man comes along she takes him. Her self confidence leads her to believe they can make ends meet until the young man is established in his profession.” The one large drawback to college marriages. Dean Morton said, is that only the most capable girls can maintain a credible class standing while a courtship is in progress. The courtship, she admitted, is seldom al lowed to suffer.

BOOSTERS DROP TWO Sunday and Decoration Day proved to be “Jonah Days” for the Geneva Boosters when they dropped two games, .the first at Dunkirk, where numerous errors on the part of the Boosters and ineffective pitching by Braden sent them down to defeat to the count of 13 to 2. On Decoration Day the fast nine from Ridgeville met the Boosters on he local diamond and defeated them in a closely played contest, the final score being 7 to 6. Numerous hits were made by both teams but the ielding of both teams was good, each playing on about even terms. RidgeHile had the breaks of luck in the tame as was most evidenced in the last inning, when witli the score tied it six all, a hot grounder which should have been turned into a double play uy the Boosters went thru the second baseman, making both batter and runler safe. One man scored. At Geneva’s turn at bat.

Service Rendered) by Co-operation ONE of the most perfect forms of industrial service is that which results from co-o Mra . tion between manufacturer and consumer' Recognizing this, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has developed a service bureau headed I by lubricating engineers of wide experience whose business it is to co-operate with designers I manufacturers and users of all types of machi- I nery that they may get a maximum of correct lubrication at a minimum of cost. In developing this service the Standard Oil I Company (Indiana) had a two-fold molive- I first that Standard Oil products shall render the I utmost of service and second that the user shah I get full value for the money he spends. As a result of this service the customer finds I it unnecessary to carry on costly experiments. I The lubricating specialists of the Standard Oil I Company (Indiana) will, upon request, study I his problems and tell him the exact oils and I greases needed to insure correct lubrication of I his machinery. This highly specialized service is rendered I without cost. It is One of the underlying princi- I pies of this Company that the customer must I be given the benefit of our wide experience, I that his lubricating costs per year may be as I low as possible. In the individual plants, large and small, I which the lubricating engineers of the Standard I Oil Company (Indiana) have served, this I principle is well recognized. Plenty of oil does not necessarily mean good I lubrication. Correct lubrication consists in ap- I plying the right oil in the right place in the I right way. To enable its patrons to achieve correct I lubrication is the busines of the lubricating engi- I neers of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). I This lubrication service is but one of the I many specialized ways in which the Standard Oil I Company (Indiana) serves industry and hence I serves society. Standard Oil Company '(/ndt’ana) 910 So.
