The ball which the wild and wooley red men put up Saturday afternoon gave the University nine plenty of "exercise."
The examinations are all over, and now the grade 3 students are wondering what poter families will say when he sees their record books.
Em-m-m-m-n-o-0.0-0.0-0.0-0 more Sophomore elocution. The Examination is passed—or rather past. No joke. Solemn fact.
They say Bear is to "represent'the Juniors on Class Day. Is this in place of the hat speech? If so, what right have the Seniors to make the appointment?

The Junsor class met Thursday and elected the following for Class Day exercises: Mr. Esterley, marshal, Mr. Hill, assistant marshal; Misses Taggart, Bartell, Sutliffe, and Goodell, ushers. The proper committees were appointed to make necessary preparations.
The Art studio will open Monday. Original work in painting and drawing done during the last year will be on exhibition. You are cordially invited by Misses Simpson and Parker to come and see what K. S. U. art students can do.
University that attracts but little attention from the casual visitor, he has no rare geological specimens or triumphs of the taxidermist's art to attract and please the eye of the sightseer, but for fifteen years the University of Kansas has not had a more faithful, devoted worker than he has been. In his department of mathematics there is nothing pleasing to any but those who love the demonstrations of truth, but out of his room have come some of the best mathematicians and engineers of the United States, and no student has ever left the alma mater without a feeling of the highest regard for the man who in his quiet and unobtrusive way has done so much for the University. The institution will never know a more faithful friend and untiring worker than he is, nor one more universally esteemed by this associates and pupils. The Trilune wishes the Professor a pleasant vacation.—Tribune.
The Sophomores held a meeting Saturday at 3 p.m., for the purpose of organizing and electing officers for the ensuing year. The meeting was called to order and H. F. Roberts made temporary chairman. The matter in hand, the election of officers, was immediately proceeded with. A motion was carried to the effect that the officers consist of a president, secretary and treasurer, historian and prophet, poet, and orator. The election was then taken up and the offices adopted were filled as follows: President, M. A. Barber; secretary and treasurer, historian and prophet, Miss Effie Scott; poet, Jus D. Bowersock; orator, H. F. Roberts. Committees were appointed on class yell, class motto, class colors, etc., to report at next meeting. The Sophomore class includes some of the best students at K. S. U., and this organization as a class is highly commendable. There has been no squabbling over honors and it is to be hoped that the class will keep up its record in this respect as well as in scholarship.
In speaking of prospective presidents for the Missouri State University, the Kansas City Times has the following concerning our own Prof. Canfield:
"There is another man not a citizen of Missouri but a resident of Kansas, Prof. James H. Canfield, of the Kansas State University, who is one of the acknowledged educational leaders of this country. Professor
Canfield is the most popular professor in that State. In many respects, he stands educationally head and shoulders above any university man in the west. Preeminently he draws the students to him, engaging in his address, always sociable and wholesouled, and possessing all those traits which make the head of an institution popular with all classes. He is the best man to go out among the people and make the University known, that there is in the Mississippi valley. Our University needs fresh air, and none is so well prepared for that operation as is the popular James H. Canfield, of Lawrence."
