Elocution Recital.
The annual recital of the Department of Elocution was given in University Hall last Friday evening. There was the usual large attendance, every desirable seat on the main floor and in the gallery being taken. The stage was attractively decorated with palms, a miniature forest of which waved in the background.
The recital was simpler than those of former years, and the merit perhaps more evenly divided. Miss Jaedicke as graduate in elocution took the leading parts, but was assisted by Miss Scharf and Miss Pennell. In several instances the program was a repetition of that given at Miss Jaedicke's graduating recital, May 26; and it was probably better on that account. "The Lady of Shallot" was on the whole the best rendered, though the lighter pieces, "On the Landing" and "Fast Friends" were very creditable performances, the last being best received of all.
School of Engineering.
A power plunger pump designed by Mr. Ward at the K.U.shops, is well underway to completion. This pump has a capacity of 250 gallons per minute under 100 pounds pressure and is used to pump water from the well south of the University to the tanks on the hill. The power is supplied by electricity generated at the shop.
Repair work will be done at the shops during vacation on some of the old pumps and machines used by the students. This work will be done by Mr.Ward and his assistants.
Fred Penfield, of Kansas City, was visiting in the city over Sunday, returning Monday morning.
One of the many things needed by the students in the Electrical Engineering department is more efficient magazines. Those now in the library are good but there are so few of them. Some means should be employed to secure new ones.
The Electrical Seminary met for the last time last Friday, June 5. Prof. Blake spoke giving a summary of work done in the Physics Department during the school year just finished. Officers were elected for next year.
