KANSAS UNIVERSITY WEEKLY.
PI BETA PHI FRATERNITY.
The PI PhI Ideal Man.
"I care not how the world may rate. Just so he is not obstinate.
You may talk of the man with the soft sweet smile,
Or with the "goo goo eyes" and a loving look.
But to me the only man worth while,
Is the one with the fattest pocket book.
The man of all others whom I most adore Is he with whom Wiedemann keepeth a score.
I'll marry the man, who,
In all kinds of weather,
Will see me shod neatly
In bright patent leather.
If ever I must make my choice, 'Twill be the man with a fine bass voice.
He may be tall or dark or slim Or short and fat, but must have tin.
My ideal man? Oh, more's the pity. Is not the man who calls us "pretty."
You may talk of the man with a killing glance. But here's to the man who won't cut a dance.
We look to the strong sex to keep us from hairm. Oh, give me the man with the muscular arm!
My ideal man is not one
That knows how to dance, and play and sing,
But he, the rarest of all mankind.
Who lets me bet on a dead sure thing.
You wonder why I'm so forlorn? My ideal man was never born.
The man I like the very best?
Must he be short or tall?
Oh dear, oh dear, I cannot tell
I'm sure I like them all.
The man for me must have eyes of blue The surest sign of a lover true.
Tis not the man who worships at my shrine But he whose spring party is next in line.
The man I love must be a man Not one who saw a thief, then ran.
"A man's a man for a' that."

Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
Mrs Donahue, a missionary who has lately returned from China, will speak at the Methodist church Sunday morning and evening. The Missionary classes of the Y.W.C.A. are urged to hear her, and all others interested in missionary work.
The Junior girls led the meeting of the Y. W. C. A. this week, under the direction of Miss Pittinger. The subject chosen was "The Christian Woman in society" and many excellent points were brought out. The lives of Queen Louise of Prussia and of lady Henry Somerset were reviewed by Miss Stem and Miss Pugh, as examples of Christian society women, and the need of a society woman for charity, sincerity, moderation, truthfullness, virtue, patience and amiability was brought out by apt quotations from various authors. The attendance at the meeting was exceptionally good. The Sophomores will lead next week.
The Senior girls extend a most cordial invitation to the Senior boys to a spread at the home of Miss Anna Alford, 940 Indiana street, Monday evening, March 18, six o'clock.
FOR SENIOR BOYS.
The importance of the laboratory, which was established through the influence of Miss Ida H. Hyde, by Mrs. Governor Robinson at Woods Hall a laboratory for research work for women, is evidenced by the fact that three Kansas University students have already applied for attendance there this year.
Miss Hyde has been chosen as representative from Kansas University on a committee of the Inter-Collegiate Alumni association. Owing to an excess of work, Miss Hyde has resigned and recommended Mrs. Blackwelder, class of'79, now of Chicago to act in her place.
