LAST FRIDAY at a meeting of the stockholders of the REVIEW Co. it was voted to combine the REVIEW with the COURIER and to unite with the COURIER supporters in building up and maintaining a paper which should be a credit to the University it would represent. As a result of this combination the COURIER-REVIEW appears in its present form. The entire staff is thoroughly organized, and we say with assurance that we fully expect the COURIER-REVIEW to be a paper of which every student may be proud and after which other papers may pattern. It is the intention of the management to issue once a month a literary number which will in part take the place of the REVIEW. In this monthly edition it is hoped will appear all articles of merit written by the professors and students or the so-called literary departments. The weekly COURIER-REVIEW will be open to all and will in every way be representative of
all classes in the University. With this introduction the COURIER-REVIEW makes its bow to the college World.
THE ATHLETIC election is over. We believe it is the general belief that the best men have been elected to all places. Considerable rivalry was occasioned, but no ill feeling grew out of the contest. Now that the election is over let us all join together in a movement looking toward a general advancement in athletics along every line. Let us get out to practice games. Let us exhibit in more ways than one that the men engaged in college athletics have our active co-operation and sympathy.
THE SENIOR class is meeting regularly every other day and at every meeting each member of the class asks the other "What shall we do on class day?" Now please do something original and yet something that will be benificial both to yourselves and to the University. Whatever you do, do it well. Formulate a plan at once and follow it out so when commencement arrives everything will be in readiness and nothing will be done hurriedly. The COURIER-REVIEW has nothing to suggest, but may have later on.
THE READING habit—that is, the habit of reading good, solid books-is one which ought to be acquired by everyone. Once acquired it will be in no danger of being broken. The knowledge of books and the author of those books is a knowledge whose possession will more than once prove of great benefit and assistance. In the University library are twenty thousand bound volumes. How many of these have you ever looked at? In the library are two hundred magazines. How many of these do you read or ever glance at?
