A Sophomore Symposium
The class in Faust, which had been spending the week in a study of the history of Dr. Faustus, and the manner in which different authors treated the life of this most interesting character, were invited by Mrs. Carruth to assemble at her home last Friday evening and give the results of their researches. A very interesting series of discussions was presented on the different phases of the Faustdrama. Each member of the class had a special topic, and the whole comprised a comparative study of Goethe's idea and treatment of Faust, with that of other writers.
It seemed to be the sentiment of the class that Goethe rose above all, in both sentiment and diction.
After some time had been pleasantly spent in these discussions, refreshments were served, and soon, in the whirl of Sophomoric conversation, Faust disappeared from sight. Afterwards the discussions were resumed, and when these were concluded, the company gave itself up to social conversation, singing college songs, etc., until the hours flew like minutes. Finally after a most delightful evening, the guests departed voting Mrs. Carruth a charming hostess.
The interesting and able manner in which she has conducted the class through the otherwise difficult study of Goethe, has made the path of the Sophomores a pleasant and an easy one. Both as a friend and an instructor, she has won the regard of every member of the class, and the event of Friday evening proved a delightful climax. May the lot of future classes be as happy.
Commencement.
The Commencement exercises were opened last Tuesday evening by the graduating recital of Mr. John C. Manning, assisted by Miss Josephine Hutchings, soprano, and Prof. Wm. MacDonald, pianist. Despite the fact that it was a bad, rainy night a fair audience was present to enjoy a most excellent program. Miss Hutchings' voice was never more fully under her control and she never sang sweeter. Mr. Manning fairly surpassed all former efforts and well deserved the frequent and hearty applause throughout the evening. All in all, the program was one of the very best ever given by the Music department.
Mr. Manning goes to Boston next fall to complete his studies and the University expects to hear bright things of him there.
A very pretty floral design, Phi Delta, Theta, was presented him by

The Juniors and Seniors who were members of Prof. Marsh's classes the past term made him a farewell call last Monday evening. The Professor entertained them with an account of the Commencement exercises at Harvard, and expressed regret at leaving the scenes of his first attempts at independent work. He said that he would always look back upon his connection with the Kansas State University with feelings of pleasure and would always take an interest in its welfare. He also lamented the lack of class spirit and hoped it would increase as the college grew. The Professor left Tuesday for Harvard where he will attend his class banquet before sailing for Europe.
Our famous ball club was treated to a surprise last Saturday afternoon when K. S. U. crossed bats with the red skins of Haskell Institute. The original idea of the game was to give the boys a little needed practice. But the Indians proved anything but a "snap" for the boys, and for a time defeat for K. S. U. seemed certain. In the last part of the game, however, the boys steadied down and won, by a score of 16 to 14. A fly catch by Esterly was the feature of the game.
Prof. and Mrs. Sayre very pleasantly entertained the Senior Pharmacy boys and their lady friends Friday evening, May 25. Social conversation was indulged in and at eleven o'clock elegant refreshments were served. Every one united in saying the evening had been most delightfully spent. Those present were, Prof. and Mrs. Sayre, Bailey, Snow, Robinson, Dyche, Mrs. Lippincott, Prof. and Mrs. W. S. Franklin, Prof. Wilcox, Miss Rudolph, Mr. Ed Franklin, Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Woodward, R. D. Brown, of Leavenworth, Mr. and Mrs. Snepp, Messrs. Hill, Parker, Webb, Scott, Pollock, Hogeboom, Kennedy, Shane, Keiser, Morris and Lippincott; Misses Drake, of Beloit, Grabe, Towne, Wynne, Kennedy, Soule, Hayes, Mason, Innes, Briggs, Shepherd, and Webb.
From the maddening crowd they stood apart.
The V-A-S-E.
apart,
The maidens four and the works of Art
And none might tell from sight alone
In which had nature ripest grown—
The Boston mind of azure hue,
Or the soulful soul from Kalamazoo.
For all loved Art in a seemingly way,
With an earnest soul and a capital A.
Long they worshipped; but no one brok
The sacred stillness, until up-poke
The Western one from the nameless place
Who blushing said, "What a lovely vace
Over three faces a sad smile flew,
And they edged away from Kalamazoo.
But Gotham's haughty soul was stirred
To crush the stranger with a word.
Definitely hiding reproof in praise,
She cries: "Tis indeed a lovely vaze."
But belief her unworthy triumph, when
the lofty one from the home of Penn—
With the consciousness of two grand papas—
And glances around with anxious thrill,
Awaiting the word *ef* of Beacon Hill.
Exclaims: "It is quite a lovely vahs,"
—M. F. I. Echo.
But the Boston mild smiles courteously.
And gently murmurs, "Oh, pardon me;
"I did not catch your remark, because I was so entranced with that charming vaws."
IT seems somewhat of a pity to have so many of our students leave before the Commencement exercises. The reason of course is apparent. Nearly two weeks are taken up with the graduation exercises of departments and the literary and musical programmes, before the time of the grand finale. Those of us whose pocket books don't warrant the payment of two weeks' extra board and room rent, are obliged to pack up and leave immediately after examinations. Many go home and return Commencement day, and others remain through the two weeks. We know of an upper classman who has never seen the University Commencement exercises, having been obliged to leave every year before that time. We wish this were different, and that when people come from different parts of the State to attend Commencement, we could have the whole body of students present.
AFTER executing his usual fling. White has retired from before a long suffering public. No doubt his "Month" and his poem celebrating the little "tin gods," alias Phi Delts, will go reverberating down the ages much the same as the feet of these same little "tin gods" reverberated down the railroad track on that memerable night with eggs running down their collars.
Last Tuesday evening Miss Howland gave a tea to the Junior ladies of the Collegiate, Music and Pharmacy departments. A delightful time is reported by those present. Very pretty souvenirs of the occasion were cards tied with the class colors, peacock blue and pink.
