UNIVERSITY COURIER. 15 Mr. Harry Schmidling, of Emporia, enrolled last Monday. Mr. S. W. Spangler, brother of W. C. Spangler, attended the reception Friday evening. Miss Ida Barnes was absent part of last week. The cause—“chills.” Mr. L. H. Leach, '84, was unanimously elected janitor of the Orophilian Society last Friday. We are glad to see ability recognized.

The College Journal comes to our table for the first time. Its contents speak well for the scholarship of Georgetown College. Among other good things we find a translation of Horace's Ode "Ad Pyrrham," and a pleasure seeker's description of his sojourn "Among the Cow Boys." The College Transcript continues to merit the praise everywhere bestowed on that journal. The Haverfordian comes all the way from Pennsylvania. What it says of the University Magazine is equally true of itself. "As a record of college sports" the Haverfordian "is excellent, but further than that it contains little of interest." The Asbury Monthly for October hardly sustains the reputation of that paper as "the best college paper in the West." We would remind the exchange editor that the Vidette Reporter doesn't come from Kansas. Boys, don't let your paper go to press again without reading the proof. The College Rambler, from the Illinois College, contains a very creditable "oration" on "Our Railroad Kings." The High School Index, published by the students of of the Ann Arbor High School, would be a credit to many institutions that go under the name of "colleges" and "universities." Our neighbor, the Baldwin Index, comes out in a new dress. From its make-up we suspect that they have been reading the Courier. We are glad that our efforts to elevate college journalism have not been in vain. Our exchanges no longer come laden with poetry on autumn leaves: The comet seems to be drawing the largest houses now. The second number of the Michigan Argonaut has been received. The Argonaut was started this year in opposition to the "old regime" of the Chronicle, and from its contents and typographical appearance it is a success.
