It is to be hoped that so much attention will not be paid to the Terpsichorean art this year. Too much time was consumed that way last year.

The fraternities have initiated new men as follows; Phi Kappa Psi, O. B. Taylor, E. L. Swope and W. S. Allen; Phi Gamma Delta, Will Jackson, Harry Deford, D. Hogeboom and Mr. Fox; Sigma Chi. A. E. Kunkle; Kappa Alpha Theta, Miss Kate B. Wilder. Sigma Nu also has some new men.
THE COURRIER this week changes its place of publication from Mr. H. A. Cutler's job printing office to the Lawrence Journal office, under charge of the student's popular friend, W. J. Flintom. Mr. Cutler has done good work on THE COURIER for the year past, but with the Journal, with a larger force and other advantageous facilities, we hope even better for the year to come.
Now that the Law Department is to be reorganized and given a reasonable support, why can't the hour of recitation be changed to some time in the afternoon, or at least to some more convenient hour than eight o'clock in the morning? It would meet the approval of nearly every student to have a change either to the afternoon or ten o'clock in the forenoon. As the professors are now to receive a sufficient remuneration to warrant them in giving their time to the matter, it would probably meet their approval also. Why can't it be done?

Courier Company Election.
The University Courier Company yee晨 day held its election of staff and officers for the eoing year. Fifty three out of fifty nine stockholders were present. The leaders of the element that had, last Friday, gone through the form of electing a staff evidently having come to the conclusion their action was illegal were present and fought royalty for their interests. After the reading of the roll of stockholders by secretary Oakley the financial report of the affairs on paper was made by J. Sullivan business manager. The following officers and editors who threw in belief for the ensuing year: President J. Sullivan; Secretary, Ross Wemple; editors E. Hayslett, Denton Dunn, Miss Hattie Cooke and Lutella Moore, W. Caywood, W. S. Shuttack, Chus, Elwell, Fred. Bowersock; business managers, J. Sullivan and T. S. Fritz.
On motion the business managers were voted the profits of the paper the coming year. The Courier for the year post has been one of the brightest weekly college papers in the country. The University and Lawrence can well be proud of it. The management was strong and in the same hands during the year to come it will be a surprise if it does not prosper. We understand it will be enlarged soon.-Lawrence Journal, Tuesday Morning.
THE UIVERSITY COURIER COMPANY
THE COURTER Company at I'Oclock Monday, held a meeting at the University for the purpose of electing a staff and officers for the coming year. Fifty-three out of fifty-nine stockholders were present. J. Sullivan occupied the chair as president of the meeting, and F. T. Oakley as secretary. After a little contest the following were practically unanimously elected, and will control the destinies of the paper the coming year. President of the company, J. Sullivan, secretary, Ross Wemple; editors. R. E. Hayslett, Misses Harriet Cooke and Luella Moore, Denton Dunn, Fred Bowersock, Chas. Elwell, W. C. Caywood, and S. W. Shattuck; business managers, J. Sullivan and T. S. Fritz. THE COURIER the past year has been one of the best weekly college papers in the United States. Under practically the same management the coming year, its success is assured.—Lawrence Gazette.
Autumn Musings.
Happening to be in Oread the other day, I noticed that during the proposals for membership a member of one fraternity gave in the names of his newly initiated brethren, whereupon he was followed by a member of another fraternity, who did likewise, and then a leader of a heterodox organization, which appeared among the other signs of hard times last year, proposed the names of his new satellites. Now, what does this mean? Are not these men put forward by the secret society leaders to increase the ring vote rather than because they wish to become good Oreads. It may be all right, but the way it was done looked suspicious.
I wonder if any enthusiastic fraternity man will go up to Nebraska University this year and try to "take in" (in more than one sense) a strong barb organization. If any rash visionary tries this again, he will probably be hooted out like the verdant Glen was, but he may not have the cheek to say he could find no "suitable material."
In rushing new men there is no necessity for rival fraternities to malign one another. A really good man will not be inclined towards a society which uses such petty and slanderous arguments. The men engaged in this dirty business had better stop before their work redounds against their own interests.
Again I am compelled to say that consistency is a jewel. In the last Review the editor of the "Reviews" department gives a glowing account of the evils of narcotics, yet he is seen every day complacently puffing his "twofer."
It is to be regretted that so little class spirit prevails in the University. In times gone by class lines were but loosely drawn, but under the present administration the classes are becoming entirely distinct from one another, so there is no excuse for the lack of enthusiasm now. Wake up, boys, and let us have some class contests—athletic or otherwise.
The faculty are making a good start in the way of chapel attendance. I sincerely hope the professors will not be so remiss in this duty as they were last year, so that THE COUCHER may not be again compelled reluctantly to publish an account of their attendance as before. If the faculty are always on hand the students will be there. Brace up, professors, and set the students a good example.
The Oratorical Association very unwisely paid out all money in the treasury to the stockholders. As I hold a share for which I paid a dollar, I fear that it is worthless and that I am a loser. Such blundering management should be avoided in the future, since there is no apology for it.
It seemed to me that last year there was altogether too much scheming for positions in college politics. I think this year that a reaction will set in and attention paid rather to merit. All things seem to point favorably, so that if a few honest fellows will try hard men may run on their merits and be elected. College politics should and can be run on an honorable basis, and until this is done unworthy men will be elected to hold important positions. THE COURIER though anti-frat, in policy, will, I am sure, lend a helping hand to the just, whether fraternity men or barbs, in an honest endeavor to do what is deserving and right. NOT SMITH.
