AN EXPLANATION. Upon receipt of your subscription renewal, your t h at card at the office is immediately credited with amount. Once every week a notice of these renewals are taken to the printer, who has charge of the mail ing list. Once every two or three weeks enough of these renewals accumulate so that it is economical for us to have the dates on the mailing list changed. This will perhaps explain why your subscription is not always credited on your mailing slip the same week it is sent in. We still have quite a number on the mailing list reads October, 1914, and whose date of expiration some that read J a n u a r y, 1915. How does yours read?

Some time after wards, F r a nk P. Davis, a roommate of Tracy, came over to my room, No. 17, in the old boarding hall, to borrow to take it along. He took the pistol and, pointing out the window, pulled the trigger. No report. Davis then, to m a ke sure it wasn't loaded, looked down the muzzle, but not being able to see anything, concluded it was all right and, t u r n i ng around, pointed it in my direction and snapped it again. It went off, and the bullet buried itself in my shoulder, where it still remains. Dr. Kedzie was called the bullet, but decided it was safer to let it stay where it was. Dr. Kedzie and my roommates took good care of me, and I was soon around again.
