Woman's League Election.
The annual meeting of the Woman's League was held Monday afternoon, September 21. The following officers were elected: President, Mrs. Snow; Secretary, Miss Shire; Treasurer, Mrs. Hodder. Plans of work for the coming year were discussed. It was decided to give five entertainments during the year for the benefit of the young ladies of the University.
Bible Study.
Under the auspices of the University Y. M. C.A. three excellent courses of Bible study have been provided for students of the University.
Dr. A. M. Wilcox will conduct a class each Tuesday evening from 7 to 8 o'clock, at his home, 1309 Ohio street. This course will be one of critical study of the New Testament but will be open only to advanced Greek students.
Rev. Mr. Banker whose work last year proved so eminently satisfactory to his students will meet a class for comparative study of the gospels. This class will meet at the home of Mr. Banker, northwest corner Louisiana and Warren streets, each Saturday at 7 p.m., and will hold its first meeting on the second Saturday of October.
A third body of students will meet at the residence of Dr. Marvin, 1605 Vermont street, Saturday. October 3,7 to 8 p.m. and each Saturday thereafter during the school year, unless otherwise arranged. The course of study will commence with questions:
1. What is the Bible?
2. Why and how should we study the Bible?
3. How is God revealed to us in the Old Testament and how in the new?
Topics relating to our duties as individuals, as members of society, as parts of a common brotherhood will be arranged and discussed from Biblical teaching.
Our motto: All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable for instruction, etc.—2 Tim. 3: 16, 17.
The Chicago Festival Orchestra.
Membership in these classes is by no means qualified by membership in the Y. M. C.A. All students are cordially urged to avail themselves of these opportunities for scholarly study.
Chancellor Snow has had the good fortune to secure the Chicago Festival Orchestra, Adolph Rosenbecker, conductor, for a matinee concert, Monday afternoon, at 2:30, of October 5th, in University Hall. The Chicago Festival Orchestra is the leading organization of its kind in the United States and is composed of forty accomplished musicians, among whom are many celebrated soloists.
Mrs. A. Sophia Markee will appear in conjunction with the Chicago Festival Orchestra in the Monday Matinee Concert and will sing the Mad Scene from Donizetti's Opera, "Lucia di Lammermoor.
The price of tickets to the Chicago Festival Orchestra will be 50 cents. The following arrangement has been made by which students enrolled in the University may take advantage of a reduced rate. On Monday, September 28, the Registrar of the University will give out slips stating that the bearer is registered as a student in the University. Upon presentation of this slip, accompanied by twenty-five cents, the students will receive a reserved seat ticket, which will admit him to the entertainment.
