Economic Seminary.
The Economic Seminary met last Monday evening in the historical and sociological seminary room in the library building. In spite of the fact that the night was cold and damp there was a full attendance of members.
The program consisted of reviews of articles in some of the leading periodicals. Mr. J. W. Engle gave a synopsis of the article in the August number of the Fortnightly Review by John Law entitled "A Week in a Co-operative Colony." This was followed by a review of the September number of the Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science by Mr. S. S. Brown. Mr. R. W. Cone reviewed the article entitled "Value of Money" by F. A. Walker in the Quarterly Journal of Economics for October 1893. The program closed by a short review of the Obituary Record in the October number of the Review of the Reviews by Prof. F. W. Blackmar.
Society Notes.
Doubtless the swellest event of the season was the reception given Saturday evening by Beta Theta Pi in the new chapter house. There were about three hundred invitations issued and nearly that number of guests were present. The members of the Faculty and their wives, were entertained from seven to nine, the members of Kappa Alpha Theta, Pi Beta Phi, Phi Kappa Psi, Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Nu from eight until ten and the Kappa Kappa Gammas and Phi Gamma Deltas from nine until eleven. The house is very tastefully and completely furnished, and was very elaborately decorated for the occasion with palms and cut flowers. Handsome lamps with rose colored shades were placed here and there in the parlor and dancing room. The dining room presented quite an oriental appearance with its usual decorations of fans of various gay designs and a large japanese umbrella suspended from the ceiling over the table in the center. Pine apple ice and angelfood cake were served during the entire evening
