The students' song during vacation:

Students should not ask their lady friends to go to dances or operas too far ahead, for a rainy night in Lawrence is like a tin can tied to a dog's tail, it is bound to occur.

Last Friday evening the gentlemen of Phi Kappa Psi gave a very pleasant party in their elegantly furnished halls. The first part of the evening until half-past ten, was devoted to progressive eucher, in which Miss Maud Mansfield and Cyrus Crane were victors at the head table, and Miss Emma White and W. S. Jenks were victor boobies. After the serving of refreshments, music and dancing and social converse occupied the moments until the "wee hours." The following ladies and gentlemen were present: J. A. Prescott, Miss Bertie Kinnear; A. L. Wilmott, Miss Jo Gilmore; W. S. Jenks, Miss Nellie Furniss; Prof. and Mrs. Brownell; H. B. Bullene, Miss Alice Noble; A. W, Postlethwaite, Miss Lizzie Pettee; E. L. Swope, Miss Clara Coffin; Denton Dunn, Miss Titus; Cyrus Crane, Miss Hattie Dunn; Solon T. Gilmore, Miss Maud Mansfield; O. B. Taylor, Miss Alice Penfield; Y. M. White, Miss Bella Love.
The library was so cold Monday it was almost impossible to remain in it.
The athletes are beginning to practice for Field Day. We are glad to see this. There is no reason why the University should not stand first in athletic sports as well as in oratory.
Prof. Canfield has a plan which would be well for the professors to consider. It is that of dividing up the boys between the different professors, and on arbor day using them to beautify the professors' yards and lawns, lay out gardens, etc. It might be practical.
The Phi Delta Thetas handsomely entertained their lady friends last Friday evening at the A. O. U. W. hall. This was the first party the Phi Delts have given and no effort was spared to make the occasion a happy one. The amusements consisted of dancing, card playing, bean bag, singing and social conversation. The hall was prettily draped in the Phi Delt colors. A fine supper was served in the hall by that excellent caterer Mull. A number of toasts were responded to by Messrs Blair and Ridge, of Kansas City, Caldwell, Graham, Burney, Higgins and Schall. Those present were: Misses Nannie Anderson, Marcella Howland, Lillie Freeman, Manie Henshaw, Emma Blackington, Lou Palmer, Nellie Palmer, Alice Bartell, Agnes Wright, Nellie Franklin, Tella Chapman, Evelyn Smith, Laura O'Brien, Gertie Crotty, Maud Thrasher, and Messrs. Blair, Burney, Leipman, Higgins, Davis, Graham, Jackson, Wheeler, W. S. Franklin, Ed. Franklin, Kellogg, Snyder, Lewis, Chase, Schall, J. W. Ridge, of Kansas City, J. W. O'Brien and Mr. Caldwell and wife.
Some writer in the Washburn Argo deplores the fact that athletics are on the decline at K. S. U., and gives a howl as to the manner their club was treated in Lawrence last spring. To the first, we will say that Washburn has probably found to her cost that athletics have not fallen to a very low place in the University. To the second, we can say, although their nine has ample grounds for complaint, yet, on the part of our boys, it was a mistake, pure and simple. And in answer to their howl, we will ask the writer if he has ever heard something about people who live in glass houses. Of course, Washburn has always treated the University magnificently. Washburn never ran in three men from Topeka to play with them. Her students never tried to bulldoze the umpire. They never insulted (?) the University nine by deriding almost every play made, howling and hooting at one of our players. They never capped their insulting behaviour by hissing our victorious nine as they filed into supper. Oh no, we have no wrongs to remember from Washburn. Our remarks do not refer to the Washburn nine, for they are gentlemen, but a large part of Washburn students know to whom we do refer.
