THE WOMAN'S LEAGUE.
The Woman's League was "at home" to the young women of the University last Saturday at the the Chancellor's residence. A "question box," which had been placed in the girls' cloak room at the main building for the reception of questions on etiquette and propriety, was opened and the questions answered and discussed. This idea proved to be an excellent one and furnished most interesting and profitable entertainment for the afternoon.

"I wish to congratulate you and the State upon what is looked upon here as the most fortunate selection for what we consider about the most important appointment in the State of Kansas.
"The services rendered to the University and in that way to the State by Mr. Gleed during his former term are well known and recognized here at the east. * * *
"In this section of the country he has the personal regard and esteem of all who know him, and his intense interest in the University has communicated a generous enthusiasm upon that subject to many beyond the borders of your State. * * *
"I am very proud to have received a degree from the University of Kansas and my interest in its success, and all that that means, for the present and future generations in Kansas, makes me grateful to you for this appointment."
A student in Political Economy is losing sleep over an ambiguous sentence that he found in a volume on "Profit Sharing." It reads: "The basis of division at Gloucester, the great fish market of America, gives the crew one half the net proceeds and the owners the other half." He would like to know how, in this particular industry, the net proceeds can be distinguished from the gross proceeds. Will some one help him out of the difficulty.
