Notice has been posted on the bulletin board for a students' meeting on Friday evening between 7 and 8. The purpose of the meeting is to sing college songs, regular old-fashioned, break-down songs such as other college students enjoy so much. It remains entirely with the students, however, to make this undertaking a success. All that is required is that plenty of students shall come with a little enthusiasm in the matter. The title of the book to be used is "College Songs." They will be found in the hall. Each costs 50 cents. If the students will bring the money with them on Friday, the book will be theirs; otherwise they can not be taken from the room, as no one cares to be responsible for them. Meetings of the College Song Association will be held every two weeks throughout the year. Surely all students are interested in this movement, and we expect a good meeting on Friday.

It has not been definitely settled in the minds of Baldwin people whether Mr. Foster will represent the state at Iowa City next may or not. Nevertheless it will be settled at Emporia that Mr. F. E. Reed will be the Kansas orator.
