IN LAST week's issue, we published the constitution of this company as formulated by a representative committee (itself elected in mass meeting) and adopted, after thorough discussion and consideration of amendments, by a mass meeting of the student body. The company was organized at once last spring, and before school closed, had sold more shares than any other paper in the field has ever issued.
As stated in Article I, the object of the company is to publish a weekly and literary newspaper that shall faithfully represent the University of Kansas and her students, instructors, officers and alumni in every department. This representative character is insured by Article
VI, which provides the recent and most equitable "cumulative method" of voting for all elections, together with numerous safeguards against trickery.
The members of the staff will do their best to make the Weekly a thoroughly representative paper and as interesting as possible in every respect. The literary department has already reached a high standard of excellence, and the editors are abundantly able to maintain and improve its quality. The members of the local staff are now coming in, and we shall soon be able to defy any item of University news to escape our reporters. Editorially the Weelky will strive to treat University affairs in a liberal and fair-minded way, considering always the interests of the institution as a whole, and refusing to be bound by any clique or ring.
The best way to secure the WEEKLY is by subscribing for a share of stock, which costs but one dollar, and entitles the holder to a vote at all meetings and elections of the company and to a copy of the paper for two years. If he leaves school before the expiration of his share, he receives his paper till the end of the two years.
The subscription price is only fifty cents a year—a cent and a quarter per copy.

Rather doubtful,but let us venture to give a little. Tomorrow is Saturday. It is the day to prepare those lessons for Monday. There will be plenty of time for recreation after that is done,and at any rate,work should come first. Sunday is the day of rest set apart for
