The Hood's Sarsaparilla company must have had some grudge against Lawrence and K. S. U. students. Last Saturday they came here with a wagon load of wooden whistles and distributed them among the small boys of the town who distracted everybody with their shrill and monotonus whistling. It was a slur on the cultivated and refined tastes of the people of Lawrence.
The Adelphic society held their first meeting last Friday night. The attendance was good, quite a number of new students being present. Everybody was enthusiastic and the program was well prepared and promptly carried out. The president, Mr. Riggs, made a very appropriate opening speech in which he set forth the work and object of the society and justified their position in excluding a certain class of students from membership much to the embarrassment of the sole fraternity man present. If the society man follows out the suggestions of Mr. Riggs for this year much effective and profitable work will be accomplished.

That is what Prof. Penny said when eighteen of the best singers in the University met last Friday afternoon to organize a glee club.
Pursuant to a notice eighteen of the boys met last Friday at 5 o'clock in old Orophilian hall and took the first steps toward establishing a University Glee Club. Prof. Penny was present and presented in a happy way the object and purpose of the club.
Prof. Penny has taken hold of this matter with an earnest and a confidence which inspires the students and there is no estimating the good that will be accomplished. The University has always had good musical talent and only needed an enterprising, enthusiastic man like the Professor to call it out.
His first object was to arouse musical enthusiasm by giving new and original interpretations to old songs and by learning attractive new ones. The second object was to give the club a good musical drill and then with sixteen of the best singers, and a like number out of the ladies' glee glub which was organized last Wednesday, together with a mandolin club, make a holiday trip over the state and give concerts at the different towns. This would bring the University before the people and at the same time furnish entertainment. The third object was quite a practical one, namely; to furnish a chapel chorus. This would be an attraction in chapel exercises and increase the attendance. The plan is to divide both the male and female clubs into equal parts and then have these different choruses do chapel service in rotation. Together with all these objects the club was to cultivate social feelings and good fellowship.
After taking the range of voices of those present the professor adjourned the meeting till last Tuesday for permanent organization. The result of the Tuesday meeting was an addition of nine members and the election of the following officers:
President, C. H. Sears; secretary and treasurer, C. P. Chapman: Business manager, G. O. Virtue. A committee consisting of the Professor, D.H. Spencer and D. R. Krehbiel was then designated to draft a constitution and by-laws and to report at the next meeting.
Tuesday evening and the music room in the north building were then decided upon as the regular
time and place of meeting. Both clubs, male and female, are to meet for joint practice in north building this afternoon at 5 o'clock.
Taken all in all the undertaking has a most auspicious beginning and success is sure to follow.

University Lecture Course 1890 and 1891.
George Kennan, Henry George, Lotus Glee Club, Leand T. Powers, F. W. Gunsalus, Imperial Quartette and James Whiteomb Riley. The course is gotten up by University students—endorsed by the faculty—and the Courier—and deserves the patronage of all students who love good lectures. The lecturers are not old worn out wits of the stage, remnants of a by-gone age, but all are in the front rank of the platform stage of to-day. The fact of the popularity of the lecturers is attested by the fact that the Bureau pays over eleven hundred dollars for the seven attractions, averaging over one hundred and fifty dollars each. Notwithstanding this the course tickets have been placed at the low price of $2.50 each. These tickets entitle holders to reserved seats in the parquet, are transferable and make each attraction cost but thirty-five cents and are to be obtained of R. D. Brown, H. S. Hadley, R. R. Whitman and others. Also on sale at Crews' Book Store.
