"Piccadura, " Regulations Concerning Classes and Examinations. A student may be enrolled in any class only upon presentation of his "card of registration" for the school in which the class belongs. A study may not be dropped because of failure or to avoid probable failure and all failures in examinations must be made good at the earliest possible date—not later than one year from the failure. If not made good by the time of recurrence of the class, the work must be taken in class. Special students may not be enrolled in any class without the approval of the instructor. A student may not be enrolled in any class in advance of any other study in his course which he has not completed and which it is possible for him to carry at that time. A student may be enrolled for more or less than three full studies or their equivalent only upon the approval of a committee of the faculty appointed for the consideration of such a cause. Examinations shall be held for all students, and during the regular recitation hours of the last days of the term (or half term), such study in its proper recitation hour; they shall continue not to exceed one hour for each hour per week that the class has occupied. A student wishing dismissal from a class must receive the consent of the instructor and approval of the chancellor. A student failing in more than one-third of his work severs his connection with the University ipso facto. No distinction shall be made in the returns and first action between "Not Examined" and "Failed" in the application of this rule. All passing grades shall be reported on white cards as follows I, II, III, or "Pass." All others shall be reported on colored cards "Failed" or "Not Examined." A condition which is not made up at the next following examination period is replaced in the list of failures. A student who has failed to pass any examination may be conditioned upon the same by the chancellor if in the opinion of the instructor it can be made good by the next examination period (see below) without detriment to the regular work of the student. No special examination shall be given except during examination weeks and the first week of the fall term. Grades accepted from other institutions shall be recorded as "Passed." All examinations given in the University shall be graded; examinations on work done outside of the class and re-examinations shall be more searching and comprehensive. Chapel Rhetoricals. Cigar Are At the last meeting of the faculty in June, it was decided to re-establish a system of chapel rhetoricals, according to some plan to be formulated later by the department of English. In accordance with the action of the faculty, the department submits the following plan: Every member of the junior and senior classes shall be required to prepare and deliver from the chapel stage once in each term an oration to consist of not less than 750 or more than 1,000 words; this oration to be accepted by the English department in place of one of the forensics required in each term. The order of speakers and the dates when their orations are due shall be determined by lot, and the order of speakers for each term shall be posted in or before the beginning of that term. Each oration shall be handed to the English department at least one week before the date of its public delivery, that it may be criticised, corrected, graded as to substance and style, and returned to the writer immediately. It shall then be committed to memory and delivered on the date assigned immediately following the regular chapel exercises, and again graded as to delivery. To encourage earnest and faithful effort in the cultivation of public speaking, a matter in which the University has hitherto been palpably deficient, through the kindness of Professor L. I. Blake two cash prizes of twenty-five dollars each are offered, one to the best speaker of the junior class, and one to the best speaker of the senior class. The winner of each prize is to be determined in accordance with the following conditions: It is suggested that the first public contest be held upon Washington's Birthday, or immediately after the opening of the spring term. At the conclusion of the regular order of speaking for the term of the year as the case may be, the English department shall announce from recorded grades the names of the best ten speakers in each class. These ten shall again compete in private before a selected committee of three to be designated by the department, or by the class;and from each ten three shall be chosen to represent the class at a public contest. At this public contest, a committee of three judges shall award the prizes to the best speaker from each class. It is hoped that the preceding plan will add interest to the chapel exercises, give a healthful variety to the character of the required work in English composition, and cause an increase of attention to the subject of oratory, a subject which is sadly in need of attention among us; and that it will for these reasons meet with the hearty cooperation of the classes concerned, and of all who have the best interests of the student body at heart. It is because of the apparent need in this direction that the plan has been called for by the faculty, and prepared by the department; and as it is still somewhat incomplete as to detail, suggestions from all interested will be welcomed and carefully considered. The order of speakers for the present term has been determined in accordance with the preceding, and will be found posted on the University office bulletin. The first chapel oration is due October 3,and should be in the hands of the department one week earlier. Senior orations are to be handed to Professor Dunlap, junior's to Professor Hopkins. Exchanges of date may be arranged at pleasure, if the department is notified in advance. Adelphic.

Phi Psi Hop Perhaps the most enjoyable social gathering that has yet been had this fall was the hop given by the gentlemen of Phi Kappa Psi last Friday night. The Phi Psis have an enviable reputation as entertainers and that of Friday evening was one of the most pleasant hops they ever gave. The music of the mandolin club gave dancing an extra charm which was enjoyed by all till a late hour. Cards are out announcing the wedding of Miss Gussie Price to Mr. Paul Hudson of Topeka. Both of these young people are well known in University circles. Miss Price is a member of the Kappa Gamma society and Mr. Hudson is a Phi Psi. We make our Candies fresh every hour.
