of the class and a teacher of established reputation. He was this year president of the Northwest Kansas Teachers' association, and next year will be assistant principal of the Kansas City, Kan. High School at a salary of $1.000 a year.
Fred Raymond is another of the students of whom the class of '96 is proud. His pronounced talent has been recognized outside of the University, and next year he will be found at Columbia enjoying the University scholarship he has won. He expects to take a Ph.D. degree at that University, and in all probability his name will be in the list of Fellows next Spring.

CARL WICK.
Carl Wick, he of the sinuous tongue, of the mellifluous and perennial rhetoric, is among the number whose absence will be poignantly regretted. Where will be the man to take his place and supply the storehouse of astounding phrases which he so long has drawn upon? The classic halls of Kansas University will be to quote one of his own expressions, merely "a bald and echoing interior."

work and its possible superiority, will receive not only a Bachelor's but but also a Master's degree. They are S. E. Riggs, W. N. Logan and F. A. Whitzel.
Riggs secures his extra degree by special work in Geology and Physics. He expects to make teaching his life work, but will probably be with the American Museum at New York during the next year.
W. N. Logan is a special student of Anatomy, Psychology, and Geology. He will leave Lawrence immediately to take charge of the Institute in Cheyenne county. Afterward he will have charge of the work of the irrigation commission north of the Arkansas river. He expects to resume study at Harvard or Chicago University.
Frank Whitzel's specialty is English,at which he has worked consistently ever since he entered college,the A.M.degree being practically incidental. His future is shrouded in the blackest midnight.
MISS THOMPSON.
Miss Agnes Thompson is one of the few Lawrence girls in the class. Her work has been in the direction of literature, classic and modern, and she will probably continue on the same line. She is already a writer of short stories of University fame, and one of the contributors to the Lotus and to the literary department of the WEEKLY.
Geo. R. Albers and C. C. Crew have distinguished themselves in the Department of Engineering and were chosen members of Sigma Xi. Members of Phi Beta Kappa not otherwise mentioned are B. B. Breese and Ward Croskey.
There are many others in the class of whom we would like to speak, but space is not allowed to us.
