Vote for the man, no difference which ticket he is on.
The athletic election is on, and the politicians are getting busy as of yore.
It is in accordance with the fitness of things that Mr. Legg kicks the job press in the Kansan office.
The proposition to give the profits of the senior play and annual to the students' loan fund is a laudable one. But some of the details must be worked out before a decisive step is taken.
The Washburn Athletic Association has voted to give season tickets to the faculty and students of the college. At the same time the tickets are given each will be asked to subscribe to the support of the team.
The student who allows a political faction to buy him a share in the Athletic association and a season's admission on the consideration that he vote for its candidate is no better than the man who sells his vote in a city or state election.
The perfect participle is not in use in Oklahoma as the following clipping shows:
The Y. M. C. A. had went to considerable trouble and spent some time in making this reception enjoyable to everyone.-The Sooner, U. of Ok.
Chancellor Strong suggested yesterday morning the only sure method of eliminating boodling from athletic elections when he proposed to ask a small incidental fee of each student for admission to the athletic association. So long as the members of any faction are willing to buy athletic tickets, or to pay membership fees in the association in return for the pledge of a vote, the boodling will go on. It is difficult to see how a student with any manhood about him, can bring himself to accept such an insignificant bribe in exchange for his honesty and manliness, but the fact remains that it is done, not only in a few
instances but in scores of cases. University politics, and athletic politics in particular have been notoriously rotten for the past few years, and the only way to put an effectual stop to the evil practices is to make membership in the association free, or to make the incidental fees of the University cover it.
The third edition of the Organic Materia Medica and Pharmacognosy by L. E. Sayre Ph. M. with Histology and Microtechnique by W. C. Stevens has been published this month.
Sayre Gets Out Book.
The appearance of this volume of 692 pages shows that the authors have not spent their summer vacation in vain. Professor Sayre has had this revision work with him during the summer of 1904 and 1905.
One on Burdick.
Every part of this extensive work has been gone over and brought up to the present. Many new features are worthy of note, for example the illustrations are mostly reproductions of photomicrographs made in the laboratory. In this way, possible errors which creep into drawings are absolutely eliminated. The book is to be used by the first year Pharmacy students here and has already been adopted by many other institutions.
Dean Green, of the law school, tells a good story on Doctor William Burdick, of the law school. He says: "While Doctor Burdick was lecturing to the laws Thursday, on a difficult point of law and was illustrating it very fully, a workman in the back of the room who was connecting the heating pipes, said during a pause in the discourse 'Cut it off right there.' The Doctor stopped and looked all around the room for the culprit and then spied the workman who was responsible for the contempt of court".

Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
The speaker for the meeting of the Y.W.C.A. next Wednesday, will be Miss Bruce, State Secretary of the association. The meeting will also be a recognition service for the new members. Fifty girls have joined already.
At the mid-week meeting of the Y. W. C. A. Wednesday, Miss Laura Radford, general secretary of the Y. W. C. A. in Calcutta, India, spoke on her work there. She declares that lack of interest in missions and missionaries is usually due to ignorance, and commends highly the study classes in mission work which have been established here. There was an unusually large attendance of town people.
