Is there anything so exasperating as the man who "jollies" when you are serious?
Attention is called to the prizes given by the Annual board for the best poem and story. Anyone having literary ability should enter this contest.
The programs sent ahead by the Missouri Glee club are the most artistic productions seen here for some time. Such programs as those advertise not only the Glee club, but the University from which they come.
The University has been fortunate this year in the number of high grade lectures given free to all students who wish to attend. Professor Paul Shorey's lecture was an excellent one, while the one given last Saturday night by Otto Nordenskjöld was certainly the most interesting free lecture ever given at the University. The large crowds that attend these lectures is the most gratifying thing to those who have the lectures in charge. Heretofore the University has brought prominent lecturers here to have them greeted by a handful of people, but this year the chapel has been comfortably filled and sometimes crowded. The secret of Professor Boodin's success in getting such crowds to the lectures is probably his wide and persistent advertising.
