SOCIETY.
Prof. and Mrs. Frazier entertained Messrs. Sims, Bender, Kayser Bartell and Johnson with a five course dinner at their home on Rhode Island street last night. The evening was spent in social recreation. Evenings spent with Prof. and Mrs. Frazier as hosts are always remembered by the debating boys as the most pleasant evenings of their college course.
Miss Hettie Mossler entertained at cards for Miss Anna Rankin on Saturday afternoon. Out of town guests were Miss Wellis of Topeka and Miss Bitting and Miss Lelia Pardue of Wichita.
Pi Beta Phi held her annual spring dance Friday April 22. The American Flag was the scheme of decoration. Across the center of the ceiling was stretched an immense flag surrounded by a network of smaller flags. Flags were draped over windows, doors and along the walls. The music from Zeiler's orchestra floated from beneath a canopy of flags. The balcony in which delightful refreshments were served was dressed in pure white. It was lighted with white electric lights, a pleasing contrast to the rest of the hall which was lighted with red lights. The grand march was led by Miss Galloo and Prof. Van der Vries and the programs were given to the dancers by Miss Uhrich and Miss Hawk. On the cover of these programs were engraved the fraternity letters in gold on a wine back ground.
Miss Genevieve Sterling and Miss Elanor Noyce very pleasantly entertained on Saturday evening at the home of Miss Sterling.
The Betas gave an informal party at their chapter house last Saturday night in honor of Mr. Frank Burford, who, having completed his work in the arts school, has returned to his home.
GERMAN PLAY.
The Sig Alphas gave a pleasant party at I. O, O, $ F_{\mathrm{s}}^{2} $ hail last Satur day night.
The German department gave their fifth annual play Thursday night in the Unitarian church under the direction of Prof.Erich Muenter. The play chosen was Benedix's comedy, "Eigensinn." The cast was composed of Misses Louise Bristol, Alys Campbell and Eva Olin, Messrs. Harry Gowans, Ben Stelter and Joe Kellogg.
The players deserve great credit for the successful manner in which they interpreted the various characters.
German songs by a phonograph was a feature of the entertainment. In addition Mr.Sherer, accompanied by Miss Greissinger, sang the "Two Grenadiers."
No play ever given by the department has met with greater success, and the German department, both faculty and students, is to be congratulated upon their successful efforts.

WAGNER RECITAL.
The second lecture recital on Wagner's operas will be given by the School of Music at University Hall Tuesday evening, April 26th. The subject will be "Lohengrin," which is perhaps the best of all Wagner's operas for presentation in this way on account of the character of the music and because the general public is familiar with detached passages of it. Professor Skilton will give the lecture, describing the opera and explaining its meaning and construction; illustrations of important passages of music will be given by Professor Preyer at the piano, and by Mrs. Lyons and Professor Hubach, soloists.
THE SENIOR PLAY.

HOWE'S LECTURE.

ture. He believes that there are just as many bright men among the common every day citizens as among the great. He gave a graphic description of his daily visits among the Atchison people. He misses no place where clever men are to be found, the restaurant, harness shop, livery stable; and he interviews the farmers and visits in their homes.
Regarding newspaper work Mr. Howe said: "The great school for Journalism is the country newspaper." "Good reporters," he said farther, "can write anything," and he referred his hearers to such men as Richard Harding Davis and Lincoln Steffens.
One of the great elements of success in newspaper work is harmony among the office force.
Mr. Howe thinks that newspapers should endeavor to improve existing conditions, but feels that there can be too much reform attempted, and I gave as an example of the latter idea the policy of the New York Journal.
The Sunday newspaper was severely criticised by Mr. Howe. He called it a nuisance and said that all it contained was fake stuff and invented news stories, "Only worthy papers succeed," said Mr. Howe, "A poor paper is the poorest property on earth and the best thing that the owner of such a publication can do is to let go and run."
