The following program was rendered in Orophilian Friday: Readings, Mr. Jacobs, W. B. Kellogg; oration, W. T. Caywood. After recess the subject of the piano was revised, and the following persons appointed to solicit money for the payment of the note: B. P. Blair, W. E. Higgins and Miss Sabine.
The oratorical contest last Friday evening was poorly attended. The program taken as a whole was good, but on the part of some showed lack of preparation. From the little interest taken in it by the students, the societies and even the participants, it is safe to say that the first contest will be the last.
Our history department, under Prof. Canfield, is becoming one of most popular in the University. Thus is shown in the largely increased classes each year. Last year the political history class numbered two, while this year there are twelve in the class. All other classes show a similar increase. We will want an assistant professor before long.
