The class in practical astronomy—star gazing—has been organized. It is the largest and handsomest in school. It meets every evening from eight until — well, that depends on mamma and the weather.
The last Kappa Alpha Theta convention gave the publication of a fraternity journal into the hands of Kappa chapter at this place. The following editors will have charge: Editor in chief, Agnes Emery; associate editors, May Webster, Maggie Eidemiller; business manager, Hattie Haskell.
As this is the last part of Spangler's confinement in the clerk's office, it has been thought best to surround him with a rail to keep the young ladies from maistening too great grief over his proposed departure. A neat railing and desk now make our clerk's office like a bank, and there is Henry just ready to turn cashier and evaporate toward Canada.
Science Club meeting this afternoon. Prof. Snow will have an interesting paper; H. E. Riggs will explain the manufacture of paper; W. S. Franklin will recapitulate Scientific News.
And now comes the pleasing report that we are to have another fraternity in our midst; not of rough boys, but of girls. Delta Gamma is said to have east her eye toward K. S. U., and six of our fair co-eds are now worshippers at her shrine. We have received the names of the charter members, but at their earnest request desist from publishing them this week.
The Kappa chapter of I. C. Sorosis has accepted the resignations of membership tendered by Jeanette Oliver and Clara Hunsicker. Disturbances will occur in the best regulated societies, but like clouds, are soon dispelled by the sunlight of prosperity. The chapter is now united and harmonious, and will retain its position as the leading ladies' society in the University.
This week has been one of unusual excitement among the Greeks of K. S. U., and the interest communicated to all the University. The resignations of two members from Kappa Alpha Theta surprised nearly every one. The young ladies who took their departure from I. C. were generally recognized as not belonging to the active workers, and their step did not attract much attention.
It is a lamentable fact that thieves still exist in the University. We say "still exist," because on former occasions we have made complaint and through the Courier asked the proper authorities to look up the offenders, but to no effect. Overshairs, hats, umbrellas, books, etc., are taken and never brought back, which plainly shows that they were not "taken by mistake," but stolen. It is time this "branch of exercise" should be discontinued, and we again appeal to the high priests.
One of the very pleasant affairs of the winter was the surprise given Prof. Carruth by a visit from a number of his pupils last Saturday evening. The occasion of the gathering was the birthday of the Professor, and the German boys and girls who have learned so much under his lead, and have ever found him an intelligent, faithful instructor, a courteous gentleman, and a sincere friend, were very glad to celebrate with him the passing of another mile stone. The evening passed rapidly and gaily, and those present had a thoroughly good time. We must not forget the refreshments which the young Deutschland attacked with the same vigor they did their Tell and Faust. At last it was time to go, and each one as he went could truly say that there never were more delightful entertainers than Prof and Mrs. Carruth, and they wished the Professor many more such birthdays.
