Lines of editors remind us That the errors all will see, But good "write-ups" left behind us No one reads them, evidently.
A school paper is a great institution. The editor gets the blame, the manager gets the experience and the printer gets the money—if there is any.
The students at Emporia College find it very difficult to agree with the faculty in the stand they took recently in suspending the "Preps" who interfered with the Freshman banquet To say the least, the "preps" had their fun first.
It was said that the alumni catalogue which was issued a few days ago was the first catalogue ever issued that was made up entirely of alumni. This however was disproved by Prof M.W. Sterling who showed a small alumni catalogue which he got up and had issued fifteen years ago.
Kansas is not alone when the questions of how to get better results from debates is brought up. Both Nebraska and Missouri have the same trouble as we, and the efforts of Missouri to find a betterment of existing conditions for the future by seeking to change the methods of selecting debaters and giving them more substantial honors when they do win, is a long step in the right direction.

As a new departure in University affairs, the Choral Evensong service, inaugurated last Sunday, is one that cannot be too highly commended, both as to the interest aroused, and the inevitable good results therefrom. Its reception by the students augers well for a continuance of future services that will bring together a University congregation of all denominations, at the same time displaying a mutual upward progress in a religious way.
"Dodd Gaston," of the Topeka Capital, comments thus: "It is taken for granted that the Handholders Union will pass suitable resolutious concerning the burning of the old Windmill at Lawrence." "Of course no one would think of applying the insinuation to a University organization, but it is interesting to note that from Topeka and from a close friend of Washburn, comes recognition of the existence of such an institution.

Last year after the inter-state debates, the debating council was over ninety dollars in debt, a greater part of which was raised by subscription and the balance, thirty-five dollars, was raised this year by the literary societies and the individual members of the council. The debating council is now in debt fifty dollars and in order to guarantee the debates next year this fifty dollars must be raised before the close of the school year. It will not do for this debt to go over until next year because at that time we shall have the additional expense of the Missouri and Iowa teams. This means that unless this fifty dollars is raised there will be a debt of over one hundred dollars next year. Each student and member of the faculty should give this matter consideration and subscribe what they can toward this cause. It means the upbuilding of debating at K. U.

Earl W. Engle, a member of the sophomore class, had a very narrow escape from death last Monday evening about 5 o'clock. He had gone upon the roof of Fraser Hall and was walking around when he slipped. He caught on the narrow gutters and hung there until some one threw him a rope. If he had gone over he would have been killed instantly for he would have struck the stone steps at the entrance to the building.
