NEXT WEEK the Lecture Bureau will be ready to announce the course to be offered to the public, and to offer the tickets for sale. Though the course will connsist of but six numbers, it will be the best ever offered in Lawrence, and no one who cares for the best music and lectures should fail to purchase a ticket as soon as possible. The tickets are limited in number and low in price—only two dollars for the course. Buy a ticket and hear something good.
THERE is a very objectionable lack of formality in the manners of the majority of the K. U. students. It is very common to hear the free, frank manner of the Western people lauded to the skies, and it is worthy of commendation, but it is far worse to cultivate too free than too formal manners. Wherever the freedom approaches undue familiarity and redress it is dangerous. The young lady who permits herself to be called by her christian name at all times and in all places soon loses a considerable portion of the honor and respect that form a part of every true ladie's birthright; and the young man who thus addresses her lacks good breeding. Freedom and care of address are to be cultivated provided they keep safely within the limits of courtesy.
ORDINARILY WHOEVER is free from the more vicious habits is said to have good morals, and little attention is given to the building of these high ideals which characterize the truly moral. If a man does not drink and gamble his ethics are thought good, and little attention, in general, given to the minor habits which really show the character. According to the opinions that obtain at present, any one who will not greet all his acquaintances with the same coarse freedom is considered a prig and a fit subject for ridicule. Frankness and cordiality are good in themselves, but when abused they are far more pernicious then too great reserve. Several of the chapel talks this year have touched upon these subjects very forcibly, but, as a rule, those who need most to hear them are not resent.
