THE SENIOR class will be represented in a few weeks in almost every profession or trade in the category. The idea that the college student is fitted for nothing but books has given way to the better thought that the college student is fitted for anything he choses to follow. Only an industrial course can give a student any amount of practical experience but with the foundation of a literary or scientific education the student is ready to analyze or understand more readily and more thoroughly whatever vocation to which he applies himself. The annual commencement day of a university does not herald the advent of thoroughly trained and experienced men but it does announce the fact that here are the men most eminently qualified to be trained in any department of the school of the world. COMMENCEMENT TIME. The beginning of another epoch in the life of the college student. The semi-annual period of anxiety and fear is over for the fortunate beings whose claim for a sheepskin is at length allowed. The squabbles and scraps of the college politician will be regulated by the members of at least one class to the dusty memoranda of the past. The strife and the daily routine of preparing lessons are indefinitely postponed by the graduates of '93. Success attend you our friends; may the preparatory work of the last four years yield the richest fruit in the ultimate success and happiness of all the chosen class. Who hath profited the most? The question can only be answered by the result of coming years which alone can determine the real answer. The mass of students are divided into two classes, the mechanical and methodical student whose work is continuous and confining, and the easy going, erratic man whose lessons are perfect one day and perfect failures the next. Nearly every body will say that great results can only be accomplished by constant application in our particular line of work, the specialist is the greatest of all, but there is an honest merit in the labor of the all-round man; his education in school may be scattering and more or less superficial, but he has educated himself in many ways, he has been to social events and learned the customs and usages of the world about him, the responsibility of his school work has never weighed upon him as it has on his neighbor the book worm but the general result of his college career has been of more practical benefit than would his efforts when confined to books alone. 276 The University Courier. FARE THEE well K. U., and thou too, poor college widow. FROM ALL accounts the worlds fair will entertain a large present of Kansas students during the coming summer. It is rumored that several fraterunities will have chapter houses in Lawrence next fall. That is about as far as the fraterinities in K. S. U. have ever gone yet. If however a well established rumor is started, the chapter house question dies a natural death in the airy nothing of intangible visions. WITH THIS issue the present Courier staff retires. Under its management the present form of the paper was adopted and success, greater even than was anticipated, has crowned the efforts of those directly interested. There is still room for improvement and it is confidently expected that the incoming staff will make each succeeding issue newsier and brighter, and at the same time with fearlessness in criticism, with fairness in the treatment of all. Standing, as it does now, as the representative paper in the University, its future is assured and seems full of bright promise. IF SOLOMON could be among the living and give his opinions of the different varieties of college students, one of the first expressions of his wisdom would be to the effect that the work of the student whose sole object is to gain a grade one, is not always superior to the work of the grade two man. There is something more commandable in an honest failure than there is in the methods of those students who attempt to divert the attention of an instructor from the main question to one of minor importance, in order to gain an opportunity to air knowledge which is not demanded. To be sure the ingenuity of the student is often cultivated to an unusual degree, but it is extremely dangerous to rely soley on one's ability to evade. No one is better aware of the evasion than the instructor, and no one has less respect for that class of so called students. THE SENIOR'S class day exercises have exemplified the ingenuity and enterprise so characteristic of our class of ninety-three. In the attempt to find something newer, we suggest that ninety-four inaugurate an Apache war dance. TO ATTEMPT to give the plans of the various graduating students, for the future would be of course impossible, but many expect to enter the arena of newspaper work. Certainly no profession demands a more wide awake class of men than this one, K. U. has always furnished more than her share of enterprising and successful newspaper men. IN VIEW of the fact that nearly every fraternity or social organization in the university has taken the opportunity during the past week or two to make the last few days of school the scene of continual and repeated social entertainments, it may be well to question the wisdom of such a custom. From a physical standpoint is certainly poor policy for students to indulge in such late hours and rich food as are the attendants of nearly every entertainment of this kind. From a moral and intellectual view it is a great deal worse. Common sense is outraged whenever such foolishness is tolerated during or just preceeding the examinations. To expect students to pass creditable examinations after late hours of social dissipation and possibly forms of dissipation not strictly social, is sheer nonsense. The student who attempts to pass rigid examinations with a clouded memory and a wearied body not only does an injustice to himself and his parents but even greater to the institution. While the subject may be outside the strict realm of faculty jurisdiction, yet it is hardly a good principle for the faculty to encourage such a custom. Great bands of Freshmen now roam the fields and meadows for rare plants and flowers and each one asserts with a degree of self-confidence that would astonish a specialist, that he has found a new flower, because it cannot be classified by the key. The University Courier. 277 LOGALS. Prof. Dyche returned from Chicago Monday. Chas. Scott of Iola attended the Alumni banquet. Willis Gleed of Topeka attended commencement. J. H. Mustard was in K.C.last Friday and Saturday. Hamaker assisted in the Registrar's Office Saturday. Miss Milia Crotty was greeted by friends on the hill last week. Miss Maud Springer is visiting in Lawrence during commencement. Miss Moore of White Cloud attended the Kappa party of last Friday evening. Mr. J. F. Carlson left Sunday for a few weeks visit at the World's Fair and Chicago. H. M. Fuller of Seneca will remain here for a couple of weeks to work in the shops. H. F. M. Bear and W.Y. Morgan visited their Alma Mater during commencement. J. L. Harrington will work in the office of J.A.L.Waddell of K.C.during the summer. The Sigma Chis have just purchased and received a new piano. The piano was purchased through an an old member of this chapter, Mr. Kroh of Kansas City. The words "Sigma Chi," inlaid with gold gives a very pretty effect and the Sigs may well be proud of it. The fact that Prof. Wheeler had charge of the music for commencement last year and that it was given him again is sufficient evidence of the excellent and satisfactory results. The work done during the present commencement is evidence that the right man had been recalled He is a leader and composer of considerable reputation and played the K. S. U. March of his own composition. Mrs. J. D. Bowersock Entertains the Sigma Chis. Last Saturday evening Mrs. J. D. Bowersock entertained the Sigma Chis in her spacious home. Nearly all the active members of the chapter were present and many of the inactive ones in the city. Music, songs and conversation made the hours pass pleasantly and rapidly and after light refreshments had been served the Sigs toook leave of their hostess with many grateful hand shakes. The Phi Gam Annual. Last Monday evening Phi Gamma Delta invited their friends to Frazer Hall to participate in their annual party. The event had long been looked forward to by many with great expectations and in the final result they were not disappointed. The hall was tastefully decorated with fraternity colors and pictures and, fittest with the pretty costumes of the ladies, never looked prettier. With no thought except of the present and guided by the sweet strains of music the pleasant company remained until a late hour and then left the hall reluctantly. The Kappa's Farewell Party. As an appropriate farewell to the last day of examination week, the Kappas, according to their proverbial reputation for having a good time, flung the cares and responsibilities of the student to the wind and met with their friends in Frazer Hall last Friday evening to take a jolly farewell of this school year and to celebrate their very successful year's work as a fraternity in an appropriate manner. The hall was tastefully decorated with the fraternity colors and pictures and looked very pretty. The music by Saunders was very fine and inspired the gay dancers, just let loose from school, with new life. The supper was served by Weideman on the stage in his usually artistic manner. The party broke up only at a late hour and was a fitting climax to the successful year's work just closed. ITWOULD seem rather difficult for people who move in the "best circles" to keep straight, yet many of them claim to be perfectly square. 278 The University Courier. The Phi Delts' Entertain. Last Wednesday evening the Phi Delts gave their farewell party. It was intended to hold the reception at Col. Learnard's but owing to the unsettled condition of the weather it was given in the Merchants Bank Hall. There were a number of out of town guests, worthy Phi Delts, and, considering the inconveniences of making a change at so late a date, the party was a grand success. Although the time for decorating was short, Phi Delt pictures and colors, not profusely but tastefully, decorated the hall. Every one had a very enjoyable time and the Phi Delts may congratulate themselves upon their farewell event. Commencement of School of Engineering. At 3:30 p. m. Monday afternoon the University chapel was found well filled by students and visitors to listen to the commencement exercises of the School of Engineering. Prof. Wheeler, who furnishes the music for commencement, was present with his selected orchestra and rendered "Pique Dame," by Suppe. After invoking divine blessings by Rev. Cordley, Gounod's Faust was rendered by the orchestra. Then Mr. J. A. L. Waddell of Kansas City, Mo., member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, was introduced as the speaker of the occasion. After Mr. Waddell finished speaking the orchestra played a march, "The Gladiator," by Wheeler. New Officers. At a meeting of the stock-holders of the Courier Publishing Company, Thursday afternoon in the Beta Hall, a lively time was had and a warm discussion on some points concerning some proposed changes in the constitution. Everything was satisfactorily settled and every one is pleased with the new corps of officers who are the following: J. L. Harrington, Editor-in-Chief; Maurice L. Alden, Local Editor; Mac Gregor Douglas, Exchange and Literary Editor; D. D. Gear, Athletic Editor; E. P. Lupfer, Man'g Editor; C. R. Troxel, Business Mang're; Benjamin Horton, Circulator. On Tuesday May 30, the Junior and Senior laws created quite a diversion at the McCook ground by a very unique game of base ball. The Seniors were defeated by a score of 17 to 11 in a five inning game. The work of Bennett and Humphrey for the Juniors was especially creditable, but the pitching of McKinley and Ellis for the Seniors was poor, frequent hits being made off from both by the stalwart Juniors who easily demonstrated their superiority on the base ball field. The Baccalaureate Sermon. On Sunday evening the chapel was packed by eager listeners to hear the Baccalaureate Sermon by Rev. Chas. B. Mitchell of Kansas City, Mo. Long before the hour of opening the avenues leading to the University was a continuous throng of people and from the high character of the sermon and the high and lofty sentiments expressed it may be asserted with safety they were not disappointed. The text of the sermon was Titus 2nd chapter and 13th verse, "We should live soberly, righteously and godly in this present life." The first annual open tournament of the Hyde Park Country Club under the auspices of the United States Lawn Tennis Association will be held in Hyde Park, Kansas City, commencing July 1st. The events will be men's singles and doubles; first and second prizes in cash. This club will pay the expenses of the winner, in singles, to Chicago for purpose of entering the World's Fair championship tournament to be held July 25th. Defaults in the first round will not be called until 12 M., July 3rd, and the tournament finished by the evening of the 4th; thus enabling parties coming from other cities to enter and be detained only two days. It is hoped that every tennis player will enter. J. H. EMMERT, Secretary, 203 Thayer Bldg. 203 Thayer Bldg.

The Governor and his Staff attend Tuesday Evening. Commencement week is always one of unusual interest. Not only is this true because the papas and mammas and sweet girl friends of the graduates have come to witness the ceremonies of the occasion and the display of learning but also because of the interest which the chancellor and faculty feel in the success of the persons who have been under their care for four years or more and the relief of their responsibilility which has rested upon them during the collegiates in training these persons for the activities and duties of life; and also the distinguished persons who are present either as speakers or visitors. In the particulars just mentioned in the history of the University she has never been so fortunate, nor have attractions been so numerous. The sweet girl faces are here in great numbers. How could it have been otherwise in the face of the occurrence of so many of the leading social events of the year? Then the graduates have sisters or sweethearts who are here with pretty bouquets to toss upon the stage and tell them how proud they are of them. Aside from the particular interest in particular persons every one is interested in the distinguished men who address the graduating classes of the various departments and those present by invitation. Among those gentlemen are Mr. Horace E. Scudder of Cambridge, Mass., who delivers the annual address, Rev. Charles B. Mitchell of Kansas City, who delivered the Baccalaureate sermon, Dr. W. L. Schenck of Topeka, Mr. J. A. L. Waddell of Kansas City, and Gov. L. D. Lewelling and staff of Topeka. With this array of attractions commencement week began. Baldridge has bought Mr. Zeller's laundry business, and will call for and deliver your laundry. He will retain the agency during the summer and next year. Remember him. Commencement of School of Pharmacy. On Monday at 10:30 a. m. the exercises of the School of Pharmacy, appropriate to the commencement of that school, were held in the chapel which had previously been decorated by skillful hands. The arrangement of the stage as well as the tasteful and artistic decoration added to the agreeable and pleasing features of the occasion. After the usual opening remarks the Kansas City orchestra under Prof. H. O. Wheeler rendered "Ariadue" in a very pleasing and satisfactory manner. After prayer by Rev. Geo. D. Rodgers of Lawrence, Mr. Walter Everett Wilson of Miltonvale, Kan., the orator of the occasion, took as his subject "The Pharmacist." In his oration he endeavored to show the responsible position held by the Pharmacist who is the custodian, as it were, of many remedial agents which in the hands of unskilled and uneducated men would be both dangerous and deadly. First of all these remedial agents should be unadulterated. The Pharmacist placed, as he is, between the suffering and the public, should know and expose any and all attempts to adulterate these weapons of the physician. Mr. Aflred Youngberg of Ottawa, the essayist, followed with a well written article on "The Pharmacopoeia of the United States. He attempted to show the importance of this work, of revision which is nearly finished and the relation that this classic work maintains toward the profession of medicine and the public. He also gave a synopsis of the Pharmacopoeia of the United States. The speaker of the occasion was Dr. W. L. Schenck of Topeka. His address was listened to with great interest and was filled with much important information. Those who heard the Dr. could not help but see that he was especially interested in the science of health as well as in the curing of disease. Banweld's "Minnehaha," a duo for flute and clarionet, was very prettily rendered, and Prof. L. E. Sayre, Dean of the School of Pharmacy, came forward and in giving a few "sage advices," disclaimed the holding of that position 280 The University Courier. voluntarily but that this part of the program was an honor which had been thrust upon him by the class. The advisor assigned to himself a position above the advised and confidently warned the young men on whom he was about to confer the degree Ph, G. of the besetting sin of the profession. What the Profs. Will Do. Prof. Templin will probably remain in Lawrence during the summer. Prof. Engel and wife will go to the World's Fair in August and then visit in Indiana. Prof. Williston will spend a month at the World's Fair looking after his collection of Building Stone and seeing the sights. Prof. Carruth will spend the greater part of the summer at Chicago and Harvard. Prof. Kellogg will visit the World's Fair and may make a trip to the mountains. But his headquarters will be at Lawrence until some time in August, when he will go to Leland Stanford Jr. There he will have charge of entomology until January when Prof. Comstock of Cornell will take charge and Prof. Kellogg will assist until April 4th. He will then return to K.U. to take charge of the classes in general Entomology and Invertebrate Zoology for one half term each. Miss Brown's Reception. Promptly at half past eight o'clock, Tuesday evening, May 30, the one hundred and twenty invited guests began arriving at Fraternal Aid hall in response to invitations sent out by Miss Brown. They were received by Miss Brown assisted by her mother and her daughter, Miss Eva. The hall never looked more beautiful and homelike, the music was never better, nor have the walls ever echoed and re-echoed the musical laughter of a merrier company of dancers. The costumes which graced the festive occasion were unique, pretty and various, especially those of the gay tennis dancers, the stately Egyptians, and the light hearted Gypsies. Dainty refreshments were served at eleven o'clock, after which the merry company passed the time in dancing until old Sol streaked the gray east, warning the dancers of the approaching morn. The party bid Miss Brown good night and each went his way home vowing that he had never had a better time and hoping that this was not the last of Miss Brown's receptions. Commencement Concert of Music School. Last Thursday evening the University chapel was packed to its fullest capacity by an appreciative audience to listen to the commencement exercises of the Music School. All the aisles had been filled with chairs and yet standing room was at a premium. The weather was warmer than usual but notwithstanding all these inconveniences the attention of the audience was held with the greatest ease. The program was especially well arranged and executed without error. The audience showed its appreciation of each rendition and not a few times were the performers encored and kindly responded with another selection. The following is the program: PART I.

The graduating exercises of the School of Arts in the University Chapel on Wednesday morning closed commencement week of Kansas State University for the year 1893. About the exercises of this school centralized the interest of all the other schools and the work of the week. Strangers, visitors, friends of the sweet girl graduates, alumni, and citizens of Lawrence filled the chapel and galleries long before the hour for opening the exercises. As the orchestra struck up the lively strains of Wheeler's K. S. U. March, Chancellor Snow stepped upon the stage, followed by Governor L.D. Lewelling his staff, the members of the faculty and the members of the graduating class. All the art, skill and taste of the Junior class had been expended in decorating the chapel for the reception of the honored guests and the graduating class. From each of the five tall windows of the chapel hung in elegant and graceful folds as many American flags while from the walls, ceiling and chandeliers hung the gorgeous and victorious crimson of K.U. The decoration of the stage was elaborate and beautiful and gave it all the appearance of a unique and artistic flower bank from which was wafted the sweet and delicate odor of the flowers all over the room. Stands and urns on the stage were covered with flowers and around the edge of the stage, flowers were profusely scattered. After the invocation by Rev. Rodgers, Chancellor Snow introduced Miss Josephine Berry of Waterville who spoke on "The Influence of the Novel on Culture." Miss Berry is composed and easy on the stage and delivered her oration in a very pleasing manner. The speaker said: "The present generation is a generation of readers, but chiefly readers of fiction. Works of fiction have come to be the most complete literary representative of our nineteenth century civilization and are in turn an important influence upon that civilization. The novel, and by that I mean the good novel, is first and above all literature. In the literature of power it ranks next to the poem. It is a picture of human life with its romance and reality combined in such true and just proportion as to demonstrate that they may and should go together. It deals chiefly with love, for in that passion all men and women are most generally interested: and must repossess with life and force those great practical truths which have become imperative in the soul, and which are the springs of action. "The influence of the novel upon culture is of two kinds—moral and intellectual. The moral influence is exercised indirectly by the ideals unconsciously drawn from the characters of noble men and women portrayed by the word painting of the novelist. The intellectual influence of the novel is exercised chiefly on the imagination." Mr. Thornton Cooke, of Herrington, K. U.'s representative in the oratorical contest, discoursed upon "The Hon. John Jones." Mr. Cook is a strong thinker and his experience on the stage has given him an easy manner before an audience. He said: "It is a necessary incident of imperfect character that there should be laws, just as it is of bad health that there should be medicine. Yet there is unnecessary law making as there is unnecessary dosing. The quack in medicine finds analogue in the untrained men and women who think to cure all the ills of the body politic by statutes. For instance, here is Mr. John Jones elected to legislature of—not of this state, some other state—a shrewd, ignorant, bigoted citizen, carried into office by the catch-cry of reform. He is "worked" at the capitol by the glibtongued men of his party into supporting fiat money, free silver, woman suffrage and prohibition. He will by and by comprehend rational notions of broad public policy, but meanwhile his foolistic laws weaken the moral force of good laws. When ripe for usefulness he will be retired by an unprogressive constituency, and the process will be repeated with his successor." "One Answer to a Question," by Miss Alberta Corbin was a well written and an admirably delivered oration. Miss Corbin has a good voice and is a pleasing speaker. She said: 282 The University Courier. "After the fair ideal of college life has been overthrown and it is found that the college has its faults just as any other fact of the world, the student asks himself 'of what good is my college course?' The question may be answered in many different ways and in all there is no doubt truth. But when the student comes to look back over the four years spent in college he will find the one thing he would not exchange for all else he might have hoped to gain is the influence of the noble men and women with whom he came in contact there. He finds it is to them he owes the good of all work done in college for it was from them he learned its bearing upon life. What would have been a shapeless mass of facts became, when interpreted by worthy teachers, the means to a pure and nobler life. Nothing has such power to move the student to a better life than the example of men and women who in public life and in their homes are fair, unprejudiced, just." "Tempted Fate will Leave the Loftiest Star was the subject of W. D. Ross' oration. Mr. Ross, though not having a good voice, is a very earnest speaker. He said: "Lord Macaulay has said that 'Those who compare the age in which their lot has fallen with a golden age which exists only in their imagination may talk of degeneracy and decay; but no man who is correctly informed as to the past will be disposed to take a morose view of the present.' This statement contains the germs of a false philosophy. It is only the ideal in the imagination that can result in the perfect in production, and not the achievements of the past but the possibilities of the future should be the guide for the present. To the American his own age is the golden age of the world; to him the past is all degenerate, and of the future he reckons not. And it is just this self-complacency and self-satisfaction that is fraught with the saddest portends for the future of the republic. When the incentive to improvement disappears retrogression has begun. "It is the irrational enthusiasm of the masses for a party name that has generated the power and maintained the supremacy of the practical politician, that most baneful personality in American history. It is the servile acquiescence of intelligent party men to the dictates of ignorant party bosses that above all other causes has enervated political virtue and engendered political crimes. 'Principles not men' is a delusive and dangerous motto in a land where personality is the paramount qualification for preferment. Our leaders are continually becoming more degenerate and depraved and their system of rewards more vicious and venal." Ralph Dorman O'Leary, of Burlington, spoke upon "Learning and Life." Mr. O'Leary has a good voice and is a deep thinker and a pleasing writer. He said: "A modern English writer has said that art and poetry are valuable only if they can be absorbed into life, and that life is not valuable because it can be absorbed into art and poetry. Let us apply these remarks to the books in any great library, especially the learned books, and see if they have any real bearing upon life. Taking for example the profound works of philological scholars. They deal with words of every kind; but are they anything more than words? Can they really do anything more than minister to the the vanity of the philologian himself? Many of us believe they do not. Is this belief justifiable? No, and for this reason: one of the fundamental principles of human nature is that in order that many men should care even a little for anything good which does not appeal directly to their emotional natures or their love of pleasure it is necessary that a few should care for it supremely. These learned books, which seem dry and lifeless to many of us, are the creations of men who care for learning and education supremely. Without such men our modern university, with all its incalculable influence upon life would not exist, or would at any rate be immeasurably less useful than it is." The master oration, "More Freedom for the Free," was delivered by Prof. Miles Wilson Sterling. The orchestra rendered some delightful se- The University Courier. 283 lections throughout the program, and at its close Chancellor Snow addressed the graduates. His remarks were full of wisdom and kind advice. He attempted to impress upon the class the responsibility which rested upon each one and how their action in life affected not only themselves but also the University and those with whom they come in contact. With the conferring of degrees closed the most prosperous year in the history of Kansas University. Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock were held the commencement exercises of the school of Law. Commencement of the School of Law. The first speaker, Mr. J. L. Byrnes in his oration upon "American Citizenship" spoke of the gradual extension of the full rights of citizenship until to-day everyone, regardless of color or previous condition of servitude has equal rights. Mr. R. M. Hamer in a thesis on "An Equitable Theory of Statics" advocated the protection of the interests of the public as well as those of the workingmen and of the corporations and thought the court would do much to settle the evil. Mr. Bryce Crawford in his oration on "Chief Justice Marshall" spoke of the high character of the emnient jurist and of the important services rendered the country by the supreme court in interpreting the national law and in defining the State. "Law, the Guardian of Personal Rights" was the subject of a thesis by Mr. P. E. Parrot. He said that the primary object of popular good is to give full recognition and protection to the personal rights of all its citizens and that obedience to law is necessary for such protection. Owing to the fact that Mr. J. J. Dunn's original speech on the negative of the question for debate, "Resolved that the eithics of Jesus Christ enters into the law and the administration of justice" was obnoxious to the faculty, he did not speak, and only the affirmative was given by Mr. C. T. Morgan. He argued that our system of laws is founded upon the great principles of Christianity. Mr. Clarence Sears, in a thesis, discussed the diplomatic relations between France and the U.S. immediately following the revolution in France, in which France asked our assistance, but the U.S. refused for an offensive and not a defensive war. "The Conservatism of the Law," an oration by J. A. Rush, closed the program. He held that conservatism is our greatest national safeguard and constitutes the highest duty of American citizenship.
