At the close of the Harvest Ingathering field day, Tuesday, October
4, $221.18 was turned in by the nineteen bands of students and teachers
who spent the day soliciting in nearby towns. Professor W i l c o x estimates
that between f o u r and five hundred
dollars will be turned in as a result
of the day's work, as c o m p l e t e reports
have not yet been obtained.
The band which went to Wahoo
was the most successful.
They returned with §53.04. Miss Tillie Osnes, a m e m b e r of this band, received
the highest individual amount, having solicited $19.25. The band which
went to York obtained the next largest amount, which was $46.21.

The f o l l o w i n g IVuUy s chapel exercises continued the program, which
consisted of short talks f r o m both
the faculty and student body. Elder

spoke briefly of how the Harvest Ingathering work is carried on in the
Orient, and told us of the value of an
American ten-dollar bill in China.
Miss Pearl Rees next expressed her
desire to make this present campaign
one hundred per cent, and " I f we are
Unionites with all our might, we can
succeed."
Emil Sauer and Miss Myrtle Maxwell told some of their experiences
