Miss Alice Winston Thinks College Alumnae Bureau is Needed Here
The answers to the questions, asked by the College Alumnae Association of the freshmen women, are helping to make statistics which will either be a step toward establishing a College Alumnae Bureau here or prove that there is no need of such a Bureau in the University." The freshmen women are asked by the Association, through the aid of women advisors, whether or not they have time to prepare themselves to follow some other vocation. One of the questions asked is, "what do you expect to do after you get through college?"
"The final object of such an Association," said Miss Alice Winston, head of the Association here, "is to fit those women who do not want to teach for some other vocation and to direct their college work to that end. At present there are bureaus of this town in Chicago, Boston and New York. There is no other country the country is nearly an established fact. The first step has been taken but there is a big gap between what has already been done and the final purpose of the Association. It would move towards establishing such an institute here. The bureaus in the east are self-supporting, but it would take time before one could be conducted here on such a footing. It is impossible for students living in the west to make use of even the nearest one, which is not available. It also disadvantages of the bureau must report in person before some official."
BUREAU WORKER COMING
Miss Cummins of the New York Bureau will speak here possibly on January 1, on the various openings for new staff. Miss Cummins will be the only speaker this winter who will talk about specialized vocations for women who have a University education.

Ida M. Tarbell of New York City is scheduled to speak during the third annual Merchants' Short Course to be held at the University during February. Miss Tarbell's subject is not yet definitely known, but it will cover some topic of importance to business men.

ENTERTAINMENT TO BREAK MONOTONY More entertainment in the way of music has been provided this year than has been the case heretofore. We now know that students are to hear the orchestra and the band. Also, Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts will sing and Professor MacMurray of the department of public speaking will give several readings. A new feature in the way of entertainment will be the presentation by the Dramatic Society, under the direction of Professor MacMurray, of a momentary force, entitled "The First Time."

THURSDAY
Mr. Frank Speight, of London, who was the guest of the University Club, gave an informal talk last night at the Club, before all the members. The members of the University enjoyed the three selections Mr. Dickens' "Dickens' Pickwick Panels," and Poe's "Bells." With the rendition of these selections, Mr. Speight wove in his philosophy of life—that no one should miss a crime; the reason for the wrong-doing being ignorance on the part of the person concerned.

Frank: Spraight, "the man who makes Dickens live," portrayed vividly the misery Sergeo and the Cratchit family in his dramatic reading, "A Christmas Carol," in Fraser炉 at 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon before an audience of University students and grade school children.

Mr. Speight is from London and came here under the management of the Pond. Lyceum Purune of New York City. He is a typical Englishman and was raised in the Dickens country.
He is making his second tour of America and has already appeared in New York, Washington, D. C., Boston and other large cities.
5,800 RECEIVE DEGREES
Three Thousand University of Kansas Graduates Remain In State
began in 1873, when the University began to confer degrees, approximately fifty eight hundred students have received degrees. Of this number, almost two thousand still living within the State. The percentage remaining here is not as large as that found in some States, yet this shows that Kansas is deriving considerable benefit from the minds her University has produced.
About two thirds of the alumni are men. Of these, more are engaged in the practice of law and engineering than in any other profession. Twenty percent of women graduates the largest number have taken up educational work.
In the year 1873 those receiving degrees were four in number. In recent years, an average of four graduates each year have been annually. About five hundred University of Kansas graduates have located in the State of Missouri. Next to Missouri, Oklahoma and California have the largest number of Kansasans.
NOMEN PROFS. EXERCISE
Class of Thirty Works in Gym Under Miss Gladys Elliot
The women of the faculty, the wives of the professors, and the employees of the University have been having a good time of their own every Monday night since the beginning of school under the direction of Miss Gladys Elliot, an assistant in the physical training department.
The class has had an average attendance of thirty members and contains the names of forty-five women on its roll. From 7:30 until 8:30 Miss Elliot leads these women through the various phases of the regiment. From 8:30 until 9 they may dance, swim, or play basketball, as they like.
The last meeting of this semester was held Monday night in the gym. The first meeting of the new semester will be held on Monday, January 8, at the Athletic Building in the College will assist Miss Elliot in the *Swimming* work from now on.
"I think the women have enjoyed the work very much," said Miss Elliot. "Of course we would like to have a much larger membership next semester, and we would be glad to have the women visit the class and see what we are doing. Although the women who have different from the work we had last semester it is not so difficult or so different but that the people who come into the class now will enjoy the work just as much as the others."
the debating try-outs tomorrow afternoon, will begin at 2:50 instead of 3:00.
