--graduates and two alumni. The incorporation papers provide that the common stock is to be held entirely by students. The merit system of the Cornell Sun was the one followed in the reorganization of the KANSAN last spring.
There is a certain professor in the University, who when he goes to Kansas City, is ashamed of the town on the Kaw which gives him sustance and so writes Boston, U. S. A. after his name.
Prof. E. H. Arnold, of the New Haven School of Gymnastics, in a recent address declared that the slow, easy, gliding dance was unhealthy and that the correct hygienic dance was the hopping one. Fully half of the K. U. society people are devoted to the hygienic principle.
Here is an advertisement that upsets the charge that all of the oil companies in the Kansas oil belt are swindling concerns: "All stockholders of the Ohio Crude Oil Company who wish to surrender their stock and get back their money can do so. A. F. Sims, secretary, Howard, Kas." — Kansas City Journal. This is our A. F. Sims of debating fame.
The lawyers and business men of this part of the U. S. are either exceedingly busy this spring or have "sworn off" serving as judges on inter-collegiate debates. The debate between Iowa and Minnesota had to be held with only two judges, Iowa and Nebraska postponed their debate two weeks because of being unable to secure judges, and our boys started for Columbia, Thursday, with only two judges for the coming debate selected.
The Cornell Daily Sun, the student publication at Cornell, has been incorporated under the laws of the state of New York, and henceforth will be conducted in the form of a legal corporation. The new venture is capitalized at $10,000, $3,600 of which is preferred and $6,400 in common stock. The board of directors consists of six undergraduates and two alumni. The incorporation papers provide that the common stock is to be held entirely by students. The merit system of the Cornell Sun was the one followed in the reorganization of the KANSAN last spring.

The spirit the Athenian senate showed in giving a banquet to the debating teams last night in Snow Hall, and the interest the Senators have shown in the inter-state debates in general are the things, which if continued will place debating on the footing it should have in University life. Debating will prosper only where you have real live literary societies.
--no man escapes.
The sentiment of the University as a whole is undoubtedly behind the action of the Sophomore class in voting to have nothing to do with the Annual May day affair. Not that there is anything criminally wrong or morally shocking in those May day occurrences but simply that we want a change. There is nothing new or novel in the May pole rough and tumble and until something better can supplant it, it is probably better to have nothing doing at all.

NEW YORK CITY.
Cornell University Medical College,
The course covering four years begins during the first week in October and continues until June. A preliminary training in natural science is of great advantage. All the classes are divided into small sections for recitations, laboratory and clinical bedside instruction, and Students are admitted to advanced standing after passing the required examinations. The successful completion of State of New York as maintaining a satisfactory standard is sufficient to satisfy the requirements for admission which have lately been raised. Full particulars will be mailed on application. Wm. M. Polk, M. D., LL. D., Dean. Cornell University Medical College, 27th and 28th streets and First Avenue, N.Y.C.
The last Chamber concert was given at the Presbyterian church Thursday night. The audience was smaller than at the other concerts. This was because the tickets had been used at the last concert. A ticket holder was allowed to admit two for the last concert instead of one for each concert. Profs. Skilton and Wyley anr Miss Boright played with their usual good form. The singer was Miss Pearl Collins of Kansas City, she is a pupil of Prof. Hubach. She seemed to give promise of being a mezzo soprano, for in this pitch she did her best work last night.
These concerts have been an all around success. Much of the credit is due to Miss Augusta Flintom, who had them in charge.
Something new and swell at Shelly's Studio.

WATCH IT.
Do you know what all those posters on the bulletin board are telling you to watch and wait for? Well, the KANSAN, the vehicle of news, is going to tell you all about "watch it." There is to be a County Fair on May 6. This Fair is to be given under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A., by the girls of the University, and is to be held in the "gym." Each Sorority will have charge of a booth and the Allemania Club is to have a unique German booth. Those not interested in these booths can see the side shows. Some can see the baby show, others may learn of their future from the gypsy fortune tellers.
Be sure and bring the children (Freshman) for there is to be popcorn and red lemonade galore. The price of admission to the grounds is 10 cents. Nothing will cost over five cents. This is all the KANSAN can tell you today but watch for each issue for additional news.
The students need not think they will feel lonesome. All their country cousins will be on the grounds to shake hands with them. The bride and groom taking in the sights will be present.
