180 THE CORRIDORS. BLAIR'S SONG. TUNE—The Girl I Left Behind Me. Back to hard study and labor; Back to hard fare and hash; Back to the Phi Gamm brothers: Back to my dear little mash. The Engineering Society has subscribed for The Engineering News, American Contract Journal and The Scientific Ameican Supplement. Besides these Richard Birbeck has donated to the society for this year the Scientific American. The society is now in a very prosperous condition, having about fifteen active members. About every third meeting the programme will be changed from papers entirely to a debate on some practical scientific question. All are cordially invited to attend these meetings. The Kappa Alpha Thetas received at the residence of Miss Nellie Griswold. A score of K. S. U.'s fairest here received their friends in a cordial and elegant manner, and bore out the unequaled reputation of Theta receptions. Callers received as souvenirs rosettes of different colored ribbons, bearing the names of those receiving. The ladies of the Y.M.C.A., assisted by a committee of gentlemen, received at the Y. M. C. A. rooms. All were made cordially welcome, and impressed with the good results of the association. On the list of prisoners to be discharged from the penitenitary, January 12, we notice the name of Harry Smith. The I. C. sorosis received at the residence of Miss Maud Mansfield. The callers were hospitably received and entertained and on departure decorated by a belle with a bell hung with the I. C. colors. PHI GAMMA DELTA. The reception given by the Phi Gamma Deltas to their lady friends is certainly the principal event of the season. Very handsome invitations had been issued and the coming of the anniversary evening, December 20th, was eagerly awaited. The object of the gathering was the celebration of the founding of Pi Duteron Chapter of the fraternity two years ago, and right well was that object sustained. After the reception was over, the banquet was announced at Pershall's, and according to that experienced caterer this was the finest ever gotten up in Lawrence. After enjoying the pleasures of the board, toasts were proposed and responded to by representative Phi Gams. The address of welcome was given by W. Y. Morgan; Sister Fraternities was the subject of W. H. Brown; and "The Fraternity Idea" was discoursed upon by Glen Miller. An adjournment was then had to the ball room, where the hours rolled swiftly by in the mazes of the waltz and intricaeies of the quadrille. At a late hour the merry company departed expressing their unalloyed pleasure at the evenings entertainment, and the hope that there would be many returns of the happy occasion and with great compliment to the reunion and the Phi Gamms, who had so successfully celebrated their foundation and exceeding prosperity.
