29 LOCAL. —Dr. Marvin will remain to superintend the erection of the chemical building. —Try D. A Blackburn's system of voice culture. "No likee, no takee." My voice culture students will meet once a week to apply the principle to music, and study quality of tone. Gratis D.A.BLACKBURN. —A number of Harvard and Yale students are acting as "waiters."-Ex. Pshaw, that's nothing. We know of a dozen students of the K. S. U. that spend half their time, the year round, waiting-upon the girls. --We acknowledge the receipt of a "commencment week" invitation from D. L. Clark, of the Nebraska State University. Had it not arrived until five weeks after the exercises were over we might have been there. Remember that the Courier is published twice every month; that its columns are open to all; that any active student may hold stock; that every portion of the University is represented; that it comes at only one dollar per year. —"The following warrants upon the Treasury were issued yesterday by the State Auditor: For conveying Frank Foster to the penitentiary, $36.00; for buildings and material at the State University, $1,595.20."Capital.Let the good work go on. A case came up before one of our Normal "marms" last spring, not provided for in the discussions of the K. S. U.; but the pretty disciple of Dr. Williams was equal to the emergency. One of her older boy pupils enamored by her charms "proposed." She took him up and spanked him. Sir Stuart Hogg, an English nobleman of immense wealth, has put his boy in the Manhattan Agricultural College and bought him a large farm near by. We know of no better place to experiment on Hogg's than the Agricultural College. WHAT A NEW STUDENT CAN DO.—Every student will feel it his duty to take his college paper as the father does the home county paper. Now, any new student can buy a share of Courier stock for $2.50. He will get his Courier free, which will in three years pay him for his stock and leave him fifty cents profit. Besides this he can draw the regular dividends on the stock, and when he comes to leave the University can sell it at a premium, or in any consideration turn it into the company at what he paid for it. At the same time he has the satisfaction of getting the student's paper—the best in the University. —Miss Lizzie D. DeVose, a belle and universal favorite among the students in the college year '79-'80, has been making a special study of music during the past year and a half, at her home in Wichita, Kan. She will spend the coming winter in Denver, pursuing the course she has so auspiciously begun. —Clarence Walbridge, who numbered among the active members of Phi Kappa Psi a few years since, is traveling for Donald Bros., wholeslae dry goods merchants of Atchison. He fell in love with the whole business, even to one of the pretty saleswomen in the retail department, whom he slyly abstracted from his employers to make Mrs. Walbridge, last fall. STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY Will find the largest stock of BOOTS AND SHOES to select from in the city, including all leading styles, at prices that will pay you to visit the Family Shoe Store before buying elsewhere.
