chosen by the share holders. Five per cent.of the money handled, which should be secured by a bond, would fairly compensate the business manager for his labor.
Last year such an association saved more than twenty-five thousand dollars for the students of Harvard, an average of ten dollars for each student. The plan worked successfully last year in the University of Indiana, and in Leland Stanford, and is now being given a trial in the University of Wisconsin. The students of the University of Kansas are no less enterprising than those of the universities mentioned. Why cannot such a company be organized in time to purchase the books for next term's work?
THIS YEAR the Lecture Bureau will offer the public the best course of lectures and concerts ever offered in Lawrence. Though the course comprises only three lectures and three concerts, the standard of these will be raised to the highest limit the amount of money at the disposal of the Bureau will admit. The method of reserving seats will be similar to that adopted for the last year's course; hence it will no longer be necessary to stay up all night in order to get a good seat.
Though no contracts have yet been made, five of the six numbers have been chosen. At head is the Henri Marteau Company. Henri Marteau, the great French violinist, is, beyond question, the greatest musician that ever appeared in Lawrence. He gives but fifty concerts on this, his first American tour, and we may be considered exceedingly fortunate in securing him. A single ticket to his concert in Kansas City will cost double the price of a ticket for the entire course. The Wilczek Concert Company, and the Torbutt Concert Company are made up of artists of unusual ability, and will prove unusually great attractions. Mr. Locke Richardson, the great Shakespearean reciter, comes to us with the highest possible recommendations, and Mr. Graves is conceded to be the most eloquent of American orators. The sixth number is not yet decided upon, but will be one of the best speakers that it is possible to obtain.
