WILL READ "DR. LUKE."
Iiss Katherine Oliver in Chapel Thursday Evening.
Miss Katherine Oliver, who is called "The Dean of Scotch Leaders," will give a recital in Braser hall Thursday evening, February 17. Miss Oliver ranks among the foremost interpreters of literature, and reads only at the largest universities.
She has an extensive repertoire of well known novels and classics. From these "Dr. Luk' of the Labrador" was chosen, as her interpretation of this has the author's personal recommendation and appreciation. Norman Dunean, the author, makes his home in Lawrence part of the time with his brother, Professor Robert Kennedy Dunean.
In writing to Miss Oliver after hearing the rendition of his book, he said: "I am glad that the publishers of 'Dr. Luke' have given you the rights to the public reading of the book, for this assures an intelligent and sympathetic interpretation. Last night I heard you with very great interest and pleasure; you seemed to have discovered the spirit of Labrador life and to have found a way to communicate it to your audience. How you manage so cleverly to adapt the book to the very difficult purpose you had in view will always remain to me an amazing mystery."
Tickets may be obtained at the University book store, at North College or at Miss Mossler's down town studio.
New Phi Beta Kappa May Be Chosen Next Week.
ELECTION IS LATE.
The election of new members of the Phi Beta Kappa honorary society will be delayed this year until after the regular time of holding the initiation exercises. Owing to the late close of the first term and the great increase of work in the Registrar's office, due to the growth of the University, the grades of the College seniors are not yet in shape for the society's committee of selection to inspect them.
The election will probably be held next week. Washington's birthday is the regular date for holding initiation for new members, though the exercises are usually postponed to a later date to give the members a longer time in which to prepare the toasts they are expected to make.
Our School of Poetry.
Harry Kemp is the author of an excellent "ode to a fossil bird," which appeared recently in the Independent. It was written after an experience with a spring chicken at his boarding house in Lawrence.—Emporia Gazette.
The subjects of Prof. Shorey's lectures the remainder of the week are: Wednesday, "Jest and Earnest in Plato;" Thursday, "Lucietius and the Poetry of Science;" Friday, "Some Modernisms of the Ancients.' The lectures are given at 4:30 each afternoon in the chapel.
In another year a change will go into effect in the requirements for entrance to the Sheffield Scientific School and for the first time it will be possible to enter a department of Yale without preparation in Latin. The Sheffield School is one of the last engineering departments in the country to drop Latin as an entrance requirement.
