Among the juvenile books which will certainly attain great popularity is another volume of the "Zig Zag" travel series. The last one is the story of a bright inquiring class of boys in a journey with their teacher, through Acadia. What they said, did and saw is told in a bright, interesting style, and holds the young reader fascinated from beginning to end. The book is published by Estes & Lauriat, of Boston. The same firm has gotten out a new handsomely illustrated story book for young children, entitled "Other Folks at Home." It is charmingly and simply written; just the thing for a Christmas gift to a little brother or sister. Sold by S. T. Field & Co.
The Escort.
Yes, chum. I'm home again at last.
I disappeent upon my chance.
And saw the lovely Clara home
From the mazes of the dance.
I thought the fellows envied me
This charming "Fairy Fay."
But, chum, I've lately changed my mind.
She lived three miles away.

VIEWS.
EDITOR VIEWS:—From the dome of our University we have one of the finest "views" in Kansas, and few are the students who have not feasted their eyes upon the beauty of the city and the country that lies at the foot of Mt. Oread till their hearts have been filled to overflowing with wonder and admiration. But how many students know the history of Mt. Oread, Lawrence and the graveyard east of the city, wherein so many heroes sleep?
Students attend our University, plunge into Latin and Greek; learn of Marathon, Thermopylae and the Roman Empire; they can give the most intricate details of ancient records; but how many can rehearse the simple story of that self sacrificing old hero, John Brown? How many can tell the glorious, heroic, sad story of Jas. Lane, whose monument graces our cemetery, and whose history is dear to Kansas? How many can name the day that Quantrell's murderous band left the houses of our city in ashes, and the streets wet with blood? It is well that our students should know of Greece and Rome, but they should never allow the history of Kansas and of Lawrence to fade or be forgotten, for it is among the brightest jewels in the crown of human liberty.
EDITOR VIEWS: -It has been stated that colleges have no power in politics. In the light of facts this statement seems false. Nearly all of our
text books on political economy are written by college professors. A student forms his political principles during his college life. Many of our journalists are students or men fresh from college life. In the late election the opinions of our colleges were printed as great evidence for or against a party by our best newspapers. Many of our highest diplomatists and embassadors are college men. These things show that colleges are no small factor in politics. POLITICIAN.
EDITOR VIEWS:—The enjoyment of the Thanksgiving vacation arouses n me a wish to lengthen the Christmas holidays. Our school work closes at noon on Friday, Dec. 19th. If we leave on the noon or evening trains we shall practically add a day to the vacation. It has been the custom to hold the contest between the Oread and Orophilian literary societies on that last Friday evening. It is the opinion of several students to whom I have spoken, that it would be better to hold the contest on Thursday evening. No one can study on that last afternoon, and hence we waste time by staying in Lawrence. Experience with lectures in the past has shown us Friday's recitations will not suffer. Shall the change be made? J. D.
