A prominent educator who visited at the University recently was greatly interested in the "needles" worn by members of the different fraternities. Mr. Samuel A. M.

The Junior class in electrical engineering has taken up the study of mathematical demonstrations of the alternating current. This study has only within a short time been added to the curriculum. Mr. G. A. Schumacher is the local agent for Mr. Gronlund's works. Quite a number of students are availing themselves of this opportunity to add Mr. Gronlund's standard work to their libraries. Before long certain additional regulations with regard to themes and forenses will be published by the English department. The new rules will require the presentation of the plan upon which each production has been written. Prof. Williston has photographed the skeleton of the Kansas rhinoceros recently mounted and will make blue print photographs for the next number of the Quarterly to illustrate an article that he will write.

Gould, of Washburn, business manager of the Washburn Mid-Continent, was at the University Tuesday morning to confer with Messrs. Lease and Edwards in regard to business interests. Prof. Miller's class in descriptive astronomy was given a pleasant surprise last Friday morning. Instead of the expected final quiz, the class hour was occupied in observing the sun through 't' large telescope. Quite a number of sun spots were plainly seen. The officers of the Pharmaceutical Society for this term are: President, W. M. Clark; Vice President, O. H. Parker Secretary, Miss A. E. Northrop; Treasurer, Bowen; Executive Committee, W. M. Clark, L. Voelzel, M. E. Gilmore. One of our popular Sophomores, upon being asked what his grades were for the term, replied: "I get one dence and two aces." Query: in what Methodist college not more than sixteen miles from Lawrence did this popular Sophomore learn the use of so shocking a figure of speech?

Captain James Kelsey says that the prospects for Kansas University's base ball team are bright. Prof. Newson has signified his willingness to accept the position of manager of the team. Competent players have applied for all positions on the team with the exception of pitcher, and Mr. Kelsey is ready to receive applications for that position. The classes in Astronomy this year show a marked increase in attendance over that of any preceding year. Doubtless the increase would be double if the department was well equipped with the necessary apparatus for the proper study of the subject. As it now is Prof. Miller is compelled to make a hard struggle against most discouraging circumstances. A meeting of the Glee Club is called for practice and business to be held at Music Hall, at 11:30 a. m. Saturday The recent tour of the Glee Club was such a great success that the club is planning a spring tour. This will probably take place about the time of the spring vacation. The club contemplates taking quite an extensive trip visiting the towns of the southern part of the State. The reception given by the members of Kappa Alpha Theta fraternity to their Kappa and Pi Phi sisters last Saturday afternoon was quite different from ordinary parties. Different boys' fraternities have treated themselves to "stag" parties, and all have joined in "stag" parties; but it is rather unusual for the young ladies to follow their example and have a sort of Pan Hellenic. The Thetas entertained their guests very pleasantly at the home of Miss Mary Stone from 3 o'clock to 6. The illustrated lecture on Nibelungenlied, given by Prof. Carruth, Kansas State University, under the auspices of the Saturday Club, was an intellectual treat greatly enjoyed by members of the Art League, the ladies of the Saturday Club, who completely filled the Presbyterian church. Prof. Carruth, who kindly came from Lawrence at the request of the Saturday Club, is a very pleasant speaker with a manner unsumming but entertaining. The lecture seemed all too brief to his audience.—Leavenworth Times. The west room on the third floor of Snow Hall has just been finished off, and Prof. Dyche's animals will now occupy the west rooms on the second and third floors of the building. In the room on the second floor the mountain is being built which is to be occupied by the sheep and goats; while the larger hoofed animals will be on the third floor. Prof. Dyche's assistants are also busily engaged in preserving the large specimens that were received while the Professor was at the World's Fair. Many of these specimens will have to remain unmounted until there is more room. The Freshmen, in deciding to hold a reception where different members of the class may become acquainted, show both enterprise and good sense. You may think that this is a self-evident proposition, but as long as so little class spirit is shown we may be pardoned for mentioning it. As a usual thing many members of classes do not have even a speaking acquaintance when they reach their Senior year, when this acquaintance is needed to make successful the numerous class celebrations and entertainments that are usually given. Professors joke sometimes; at least they did before examinations. It was late in the afternoon, the recitation was done, and the class was ready to go. Peppers prepared by students were being read, taking the place of regular class room work; and the professor had just asked: "Let's see, Mr. C., you read tomorrow, don't you?" C. replied in the affirmative, and we were just on the point of rising when G., another student spoke up in a tone that gave promise of a long discussion, "I'd like to know what B's subject is.—I want to 'load up' for it." The professor smiled, "Let's see, G. what do you usually do when you 'load up'" You take an empty barrel and put something in it don't you?" The fertility of resource displayed by some of the Glee Club boys during their trip, would do credit to the most experienced barn stormer in the country. After the Club had given its concert at Topeka, several of its members decided to come to Lawrence as the next day was Sunday. G. also wanted to come, but he found he had not enough money to pay his fare. This obstacle was not insurmountable, however. By borrowing what he could from his comrades, G. was able to buy a ticket to Lecompte where he knew the train does not stop; and when the conductor of the train informed him of this fact, G. after some emphatic remarks about the inconvenience it would be to him, kindly consented to come on to Lawrence. The annual meeting of the Oratorical Association for election of officers will take place in the chapel Friday at 1 o'clock. All students who have signed their names in the book provided for that purpose will be allowed to vote for president, vice-president, secretary, and second delegate. The following amendment to the constitution of the Oratorical Association will be proposed for adoption at the meeting. To amend the fifth clause of amendment one, section one, so as to read: "The rules governing both contests shall be the same, excepting that the judges of thought and composition in the April contest shall not receive written or printed copies of the orations to grade, but shall attend the contest and grade the crations from hearing them alone." sells all kinds of the best groceries to be had.
