Although the predominating color on St. Patrick's Day is green, the Commerce Club is by no means green in the business of conducting -wonder¬ ful dances. An established fact in the annals of Canisius social activities is :.hat the Commerce Club holds tvvo of the best dances of the year, the first in the Fall, and second in the Spring. The latter is, accordingly, set for next Tuesday evening, St. Patrick's night, when the club offers to a large and aaxious number of Canisians its annual Spring Dance.

'llie Library also announced that it h.is completed the compilation of its list called "Introduction to Read¬ ing" vvhich is made up of 85 books which, for want of a better word, can be called "sure-fire".
The next exhibit sponsored by the Library will be one giving a graphic demonstration of the chemical con¬ stitution of the human body. It is being prepared under the direction of .Mr. .Austin Signeur of the Chemistry Department. It is expected that it vvill be as popular vvith the general student body as was the one prepared by Mr. .Menza of the Biology Department.
