The County Clubs.
Five organizations of University County Clubs were reported last year. The Brown county club has the largest membership. There are thirty-seven students in the organization and Mr. Grant Harrington is president. They have social gatherings about once a month throughout the year. The alumni membership is one hundred and fifty and furnishes money for a scholarship. They are supporting a student here at the present time. During the Christmas holidays each year the members of the two divisions of the club indulge in a banquet.
The Allen county club was organized with thirty members. Mr.Ray Taylor was elected president. It has had a number of social gatherings.
Lynn county has fourteen members. It has had one meeting this year at which Miss Eleanor Morse was elected president. The club had a meeting at Pleasanton just a week before school opened this fall to which were invited all the prospective students.
Sumner county club, Mr. Harker Rhoads president, has eighteen members. Montgomery county has sixteen members. Er. Carl Cramer is president. The Bourbon County club has been formed this year with thirteen members Mr. C. W. Ashbaeng is president. The students of Cherokee, Harper and Cowley counties have met this week to form organizations for their respective counties.
REPORT OF THE QUILL GLUB.
Mr. Livers presented a paper to the club which called forth considerable discussion. He handled the subject, "How to Reconcile Society with Study in Student Life," in a practical and logical manner, and although it is a difficult problem to attack, the solutions offered were interesting and not calculated to offend any fair minded reader. The suggestion that a mingling of the faculty and students in an informal way would do much to bring about desirable results in the life of the University, met with hearty indorsement.
Miss Greene read "A Character Sketch" which had been sent to the club by Miss Mary E. Blue. It was a very simple, extremely interesting sketch of life in a western Kansas sod-house. We are always pleased to hear from absent members and are glad to receive substantial proof of their continued interest in the club.
REPORT OF X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB
At the meeting of the X. Y. Z. Debating Club last Saturday night, the usual interesting program was given. Frank Grant led parliamentary drill, after which S. E Bartlett discussed the New York election. The debate of the evening was upon the question; Resolved, That the United States should permit European nations to seize and hold territory of South America in payment of debts. The members present were divided-one side of the house taking the affirmative and the other the negative, and a debate from the floor was held. This style of debate has not been customary in the club, and the success of the experiment has caused an inclination to make it a permanent feature.

SMILE!!
THE ROMANTIC GOAT.
"God Smiled When He Put Humor into the Human Soul and Said—That is Good."
I'm happy, said the goat, today; I love you.
Love's sun upon me shines.
And just in passing let me say,
I'm full of valentines.
Three score within my rosy pouch
My finest visions wake—
I feel I'm on my laft's softest couch,
A-brim with angel cake.
In fact, I'm full of Love's sweet pain.
My heart beats pit-a-pat.
Until I view with cold disdain
The predigested hat.
With bleeding hearts I'm simply
gay;
Likewise with sonnets pure.
And promises I trust that may
unbroken long endure.
Oh, "love" and "dove" and "fate"
and "mate"
My fancies keep afloat;
Go to Smith's News Depot for Sweaters and Jerseys.

THE GRAMMAR AND THE OWL.
And not the common can-fed goat
There is an owl that sings "To-whoo!"
As he sits in the old dead tree;
If only the owl would sing.
What a grammatical owl he'd be,
Crayon.
"To-whoom?
But an owl is an owl,
And never these two shall meet.
Till the owl thies over to Boston town
And settles in Beacon street. Ex.
