This was an innovation which could scarcely have been brought about anywhere else than in a new country. This was an experiment, and so successful did it prove, that it has been repeated now by two hundred of the chartered institutions of the United States, or more than half the whole number that claim the name of college, and among them some of our largest Universities. The University of Michigan, Cornell and Syraeuse Universities, Boston University, University of Pennsylvania, Harvard and Yale, in part, and even John Hopkins University, grant one scholarship to a female student in higher mathematics. But it is not in America alone the example has been set. The London University, since 1778, has had no distinction of sex. Durham University last year admitted women, and in 1881 the University of Cambridge gave regular prosessional degrees to women. Even old Oxford, the ver- erable home of classics and the synonym of conservatism, has been compelled by popular opinion to open it doors to women. Neither is this ex ample confined to the United State and England, but the largest Uni versities of Germany, Italy, Denmark Sweden and Switzerland are open to women. VIEWS. EDITOR VIEWS: I have noticed in my perambulations around town that some of our students have a good deal of time which they devote to reading—not the standard authors, not books relating to their studies—but such deep philosophical works as the Police News and the Boys of New York. I would ask if time thus spent will bring in any very substantial fruits? Of course the student who does this pleads that he "muse have some light reading; and in truth it is light, and shows a shallow mine in the reader. At the age of mes, our students, any habit which is formed is a habit which will las through life. If a taste for good literature is formed, much good must result, and much pleasure will be derived in after years; but bad books or evil papers are like evil and dissolute companions; they inevitably lower the moral standard. They are even worse than bad associates, as many a young man is restrained by a sense of shame from keeping low company, while certain classes of literature seems to possess a charm for the reader. No young man can afford to waste the hours of a college course. Our library offers enough reading matter to occupy any leisure time which he may have; our professors are willing to point out a good course of reading. If a man comes to college to secure an education he should be willing to forego any pleasure which he might derive from story papers. He should endeavor to form habits of study; he should well employ the advantages which are offered to him. Is this literature good for a student? If not, then why not stop and turn to something better? It is time to think about this. WILL C. U. LATER. EDITOR VIEWS:—I have read with strange interest of the new departure of the board of regents in regard to Miss Stephens. There are "ways that are dark, and tricks that are vain," and many other unaccountable things besides the new prohibition law. Please allow a former student, who in a struggling way learned a little Greek almost entirely through Miss Stephens' kindness and patience, to express his sympathy in this time of unpleasantness to her. As to qualifications, ability and faithfulness in her work, there can be no question regarding Miss Stephens. I read her biennial report, and took it home to read to my wife. If that be treason, let them make the most of it. Truth is a keen cutter. EDITOR VIEWS:—What in the world is the K. S. U. coming to? No Field Day, no University ball, no military company, no gymnasium. Will it always be thus? Will we always be noting but a set of "book worms?" This time two years ago the Senior Preps were beating the collegiate classes in foot ball every evening after supper. Last Saturday nine University boys had a little pleasure playing base ball, while nearly twice that number sat down, or almost broke their backs standing and looking on. I believe the Cash Dining Association has a foot ball. If they are willing let them bring it down on the ball ground this evening and we will have a jolly good old Kansas State University game of foot ball. EDITOR VIEWS;—Now is the time of year the Senior makes up seventeen back studies, the Junior pawns his overcoat, the Soph goes bug hunting, the Freshie roams over the prairies with his co-ed, hunting flowers, and the jovial Prep slides down the bannister. Also, Mr. Editor, I would like to arise amid this din and state that this is also the first anniversary of the time your humble servant lost about seven dollars worth of text books. And last Tuesday the momentous occasion was celebrated by my losing a book valued at two dollars and a half. It is surprising how many petty little thieves there are in the University; and I will state right here that if the holder of the article is found he had better make a full explanation. JUSTICE. EDITOR VIEWS: I see that the students at Baldwin have adopted a uniform hat. Why should K. S. U. be behind her usually fifty-year-behind-time neighbor? The classes ought to take the matter in hand and try to work up something of the kind here. Class and college spirit are good things. Strurr. What Curdy is all *raught* up about.

Phi Gamma Delta gave an informal reception to the I. C. Sorosis last Saturday evening. The two societies met at an early hour, and after the usual interchange of greetings, applied themselves with zest to the pursuit of pleasure. The moments flew, hastened by dancing, social chat and euchre playing. The fun was interrupted by a call to an excellent supper at Pershall's, after which the party returned to the hall with refreshed and enlivened spirits. When the clock struck twelve the merry crowd reluctantly dispersed. The special charm that threw its spell around the whole evening and made the occasion the red letter day of the year, was that warm and friendly feeling that none can so well express as the boys of Phi Gamma Delta.
