LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 2, 1907.
DATES ARE SET
IOWA AND WASHBURN PRE-LIMINARIES SOON.
Two Additional Entries for Baker Try-out.—Notices to the Contestants.
At the meeting of the Debating Council yesterday evening the dates for the two remaining preliminary debates were fixed, and the contestants for each announced. The Iowa preliminary will be held in the lecture room of Green Hall Monday evening, February 11, on the question of municipal ownership of car lines. The men who will contest for places are: Tom Gowenlock, Walter Brown, Roy Cox, Fred Brett, John P. Jones, H. J. Bischoff, Heil, W. J. Luckey, Cyrus Worrell, Charles Blackmar, Simminger, Harris and John Gage.
Hal Lebrecht, Clarence Dennis, Parsons, Clyde Adams, A. G. Tritt, Carroll, Sam McWilliams, R. E. Coughlin, Robert Worline, Wilbur Lapham, R.O. Douglas and Harry Randall.
The contestants for the Washburn tryout on the same question are:
The members of the Iowa squad will meet in Professor Higgins' office in Green Hall Friday, February 8, at 10:15 to draw lots for sides of the question. The Washburn men will meet at 10:15 Monday, February 11, at the same place.
The council voted to admit Herman Pfeifer and Woodie Jacobs to the Baker preliminary next Monday evening. These men did not enter their applications until long after the entries were supposed to be closed, but the council thought it unwise to bar anyone on a mere technicality. Jacobs, who is a colored man, was very anxious to get into the debate, which is on the repeal of the fifteenth amendment, and promises to make a strong trial, as he has won honors in oratory, and has had practice in public speaking.
WANT A WOMAN REGENT.
New York Ex-Kansans Propose New Idea.
About fifty ex-Kansans in New York City gave a Kansas Day banquet Tuesday evening and discussed the welfare of their native state. A petition was sent to Governor Hoch asking for the appointment of a woman to the Board of Regents of the University. Many instances were cited of cases where women had been highly satisfactory in this capacity. Col.J.J.McCook, donor of McCook Field, was one of the principal speakers.

It is the intention of the Athletic Directors of the University to make these inter-class games a matter of permanent record, and organize a series of inter-school games to be played in the last part of February.
Manager Lansdon has now in preparation a set of eligibility rules to govern the inter-class games. However, men on the Varsity team are not eligible to play on a class team. The full set of rules will appear in the next issue of the Kansan.
Biological Lectures Coming.
Dr. Charles Sedgwick Minot, of the Harvard Medical School, will give a series of five lectures, beginning Monday, February 11, at the University of Kansas. The first four lectures will occur in the afternoon. The last one will be a chapel address. The subject is along a biological line.

SPEAKERSNAMED
SENATOR DOLLIVER TO DELIVER COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS
Bishop John H. Vincent will Preach Baccalaureate Sermon This Year.
The committee on University lectures, of which Prof. John E. Boodin is chairman, has announced the speakers for commencement week. Senator Jonathan P. Dolliver of Iowa will deliver the commencement address, and Bishop John H. Vincent of Indianapolis, Indiana, will preach the baccalaureate sermon.
Senator Dolliver is well known in the West, and has been in the Senate since 1900. Bishop Vincent preached the baccalaureate sermon in 1896, and is remembered by members of the faculty as a very eloquent speaker. Besides being a bishop of the M. E. church, he is one of the founders of the Chataqua System, of which he has been chancellor since 1878.

STATE BAR ASSOCIATION.
W. J. Luckey Represented the University.
W. J. Luckey of the senior law class represented the University on the program of the State Bar Association which was in session in Topeka this week. He presented a paper on the subject: "Is it the Province of the Legislature or the Judicial Department of the Government to Decide what Public Policy of General Welfare Requires?" Mr. Luckey won his place in a competition open to all the law seniors. The faculty members of the law school attended the sessions of the association. Herbert S. Hadley, attorney general of Missouri, and a graduate of the University law school, was one of the speakers. L. H. Perkins of Lawrence is president of the Association.
Telephone Lectures Monday.
The recently formed Electrical Society will meet Monday, February 4, at 4 p. m. in the lecture room of Blake Hall to listen to a talk by Mr. C. S. Winston of Chicago.

Mr. Winston will also deliver a popular illustrated lecture on Telephones and Telephone Systems, Monday evening at eight o'clock, in the University Hall.

The Illinois senior civils are taking to hirsute ornamentation comparatively late in life if local reports are true. There is a league among the Lawrence high school seniors to wear their beards untrimmed regardless of the fact that whiskers a /a Peffer are no longer in vogue.
Dr. Palmer is to be followed by another Harvard man, Dr. Charles S. Minot, who will lecture at the University Feb. 9 to 15 on scientific subjects. Dr. Minot is professor of Embryology in Harvard and is said to be quite the equal of Dr. Palmer in his particular line of work.
Some of the local papers have suggested editorially that the New York club's notion of a woman regent might take better in Kansas if the memory of Mrs. Mary E. Lease and Mrs. Carrie Nation were not so fresh. There seems to be a notion that in the educational fields Mrs. Lease's classic advice to Kansas farmers to "Raise less corn and more hell," wouldn't work out with perfect success.
--thing to be sought is an emblem that will be distinctive, and at the same time a fitting indication of the wearer's connection with the University. No one wants them similar enough to be confused with the athletic K's. Pins have been suggested, and a K sweater with a gavel in the design has been proposed. Probably anything of the sort would be satisfactory. The point is that it should be commensurate with the athletic emblem, and should carry an equal honor.
The proposition of University emblems for debaters is scheduled to come up before the Debating Council at its next meeting. The only thing that really seems to require extended discussion is the form of the emblem. There has been no objection raised against recognizing debaters in some substantial way and probably no one will object. The
Quartette at Topeka.
The Jayhawker Quartette of the University Glee Club and a number of University students were in Topeka January 29 for the annual banquet of the Kansas Day Club. The quartette sang twice and met with liberal appreciation. The old grads and students got together after the club sang and made "Rock Chalk" echo for a few minutes.

Rode in Baggage Car.
Since the return of the Jayhawker quartette from Topeka the boys have been telling a story of how the singers made the trip in the baggage car. It all came about in this way: One of the boys decided that Phike, the patriarch of the Phi Delts, was just the one thing needed to set the quartette off and place it in a proper light before the Topeka public. So Phike in gorgeous red and blue trappings boarded the train with the rest.
All went well until the "con" came in. Phike declined to pay full fare and refused to go forward alone. As a compromise the quartette went also and rode with the baggage to Topeka where they were mistaken for advance agents of a dog show. It was a case of "Four Men in a Boat"—not counting the dog.

No Sunday Medical Classes.
President Angell has denied the truth of the report which is now circulating in the papers to the effect that Sunday classes are being held in the medical department. "I have on inquiry learned that it is not true," he states, "and that the only foundation for the report is that one of the younger instructors told some of the juniors that if they wished to accompany him on his usual morning call on the patients in the hospital on Sunday mornings, he would allow them to do so." Dr. Angell further states that the report is doing harm to the University and that this misstatement should be corrected.-Michigan Daily.

DECIDE TO GROW WHISKERS.
Engineers at University of Illinois Want to Appear Dignified.
Illinois engineers have decided to grow whiskers. This is from the Daily Illini: "As age and dignity creep upon the senior civil engineers they gradually decide to change their appearance. The latest innovation comes in the nature of a spare growth of hair upon the upper lip. An agreement has been circulated among the members to which forty have already attached their signatures. Some of the younger members are very reticent and absolutely refuse to sign without being allowed a week's trial at the new experiment."
Bargain Rates.
Junior Hop tickets at Michigan are going at $6.10 each this year. The Daily suggests that $5.98 would appeal more as a conventional bargain price.

Social Events for Prof. Palmer.
The social events for Professor Palmer continued unabated this week. In fact the only limit was Professor Palmer's time. Monday evening Professor Sayre gave a dinner in his honor, to which were invited several of the older members of the faculty. After this the group adjourned to listen to the lecture on the Odyssey.

of the faculty were brought together at the home of Professor Ashton. Chancellor Strong, though thrice a Yale man, was included in the group. The evening was given to delightful reminiscences of Harvard life by Professor Palmer, until it was discovered that the evening was far spent. Wednesday afternoon an informal reception was given to the Philosophical department in the Greek rooms
by Professor Boodin. A committee selected by the elementary psychology class, consisting of Misses Baldridge, Bennett and Mitchell, had charge of the reception. At the close Professor Palmer gave a delightful little talk on the profession of the teacher. Wednesday evening Professor Palmer was invited to take supper with the Theta girls, in honor of Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer, the brilliant leader in the movement for the higher education for woman. The invitation had no fraternity significance as neither Mrs. nor Mr. Palmer have been fraternity people. He was very glad to have a glimpse of the girls' life at K. U. He is a strong believer in coeducation and hopes that Harvard may come to it. The girls who were fortunate enough to be present will long remember his charming reading from Browning. On his return to Dean Templin's, Wednesday evening Professor Palmer found a large number of his friends present to pay him their respects the last evening of his stay. Thursday noon Professor Hogg gave a dinner for Professor Palmer and the Philosophical faculty, his first meal and his last thus being with the philosophers, the first being a luncheon at the Eldridge House by Professor Boodin. In addition to these functions breakfasts were given in honor of Professor Palmer by Professors Carruth and Dunlap.
Professor Palmer went away insisting that he had had a splendid time and that he felt better than when he arrived.

STORY OF FOWLER'S GIFT FOR THE ENGINEERING SHOPS.
The $20,000 from the Government Can Be Used without Its Appropriation by Legislature.
The twenty thousand dollars which the University receives from the government will not have to be appropriated by the legislature,but will go directly into the hands of the Board of Regents,and will probably be used on some of the contemplated new buildings. The $20, 000 is in the form of a donation to the University and not a part of the state fund. It does not have to be accounted for to the state treasurer.
It was reported that there was already an appropriation on the state books for which the University had never received the money, but upon investigation it is found untrue. $30,000 was appropriated by the state to assist in the building of Fowler Shops, but that sum was used.
In March, 1898, a fire destroyed the shops and heating plant of the University. The weather was cold, the legislature was not in session and there was no money in the university treasury. School was dismissed, and the prospects for its opening were not the best. Then it was that Mr. Geo. Fowler, the wealthy packer, came to the rescue. Prof. Blake was a fellow member with Mr. Fowler in a Kansas City Country Club. He related to Mr. Fowler the story of the fire.
Mr. Fowler at once agreed to give $18,000 towards the erection of some new shops on condition that the legislature appropriate $30,000 more at its next session. The University was then opened in two weeks by spending a large amount on a heating plant. The $30,000 was used in finishing Fowler Shops.
Later Mr. Fowler gave $3,000 more. It happened this way. Out of gratitude for his generosity he was asked to deliver an address at the commencement exercises.
"How much money do you want," was his only reply. He was informed that $3,000 was the amount required to finish the building, and he sent it at once, but he never made the address at the University.

The Twenty-fifth Annual Convention of the Y. M. C. A. of Kansas meets at Ottawa, February 7-10. Addresses by prominent men will be given. The men who will go from the University are: "Dutch" Ahlborn, Steeper, Alexander, Jhonte, Gift, Sheldon, Hoisington, Reed Harris, Hagerman, Stockwell, Naramore, Livers, and Bailey.
WILL PLAY THE METHODISTS.
Basket Ball Team Starts on Trip Thursday.—Seven Games in all.
NUMBER 36
Manager W. C. Lansdon has arranged with the Baker management for a basket ball game February 14 at Baldwin. This is the result of an effort on the part of Baker to meet Kansas in basket ball. Last year Kansas lost a game early in the season before the freshmen were eligible and no second game was played. Kansas easily defeated Nebraska and Nebraska defeated the Methodists on their own floor.
The team this year is not as well balanced as that of last year and the men will have to work hard to win a majority of the games on the trip. They have the K.U.spirit however and will do their best to represent the university.The personal of the team is not yet known. The late examinations may make it necessary to work out one or two new men for the squad.
The basket ball team starts on the first trip Thursday evening with a game with Ottawa University. Following this game are games with Nebraska University, Ft. Riley, K. S. A. C., Emporia Normal, Newton and Baker University.
QUILLERS TO REORGANIZE.
Writers Club Will Give Semi- Social Functions.
Plans are on foot in the Quill Club to thoroughly reorganize the club within the next few weeks, and make it more of an honor society than has been the case. To this end the membership will be gradually reduced, and the qualifications for membership raised in proportion.
It is planned to bind the members of the society together by this means. For the rest of the year informal teas will be given once a month for the club and the faculty of the English department. The semi-annual election of officers for the club will be held at the next regular meeting, Tuesday, February 12, and the reorganization plans will be thoroughly discussed. All members are urged to attend.
Missouri Wants a Million.
The board of curators of Missouri University went before the legislature last week to present the needs of the University for the next biennium. The amount asked is in round numbers a million dollars. The largest items asked are for the academic department and for the agricultural and experiment station at Columbia. The amount asked for general maintenance is $492,000, practically a half million.
TEAM CHOSEN
VIGG, COMMONS AND JACOBS WILL TRY THE METHODISTS.
Jacobs, the Colored Man, in Defense of His Race—An Experienced Orator.
At the preliminary contest for the selection of a team to represent Kansas University in the annual Baker-Kansas debate the following men were chosen Monday night: Sandor J. Vigg, Clyde Commons and Woody Jacobs. The debate will be held at Baker this year about April the 25th and the question, "Resolved: That the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States should be repealed," will be affirmed by the Baker team.
Woody Jacobs of the Kansas team is a colored man and in the defense of the fifteenth amendment will make a plea for the right of suffrage for his own race. He has had considerable experience in oratorical contests and took first prize in the Inter-State Literary Society contest of colored schools held at St. Joseph, Missouri, last December 27th. In this contest seven schools were represented from Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and the Indian Territory.
Of the other two speakers, Sandor J. Vigg, from Alva, Oklahoma, helped the Oklahoma Normal defeat the Kansas State Normal at Alva last year. Mr. Commons is a Ft. Scott boy and is out for his first time in an inter-collegiate debate. Henry C. Waters was chosen as the first alternate.
THOSE SENIOR PICTURES!
Must Be Handed In at Once. March 1st the Last Date.
The senior pictures are not being handed in to the business manager of the Annual as fast as they should be. Either the business manager or the editor will be at the checkstand from nine to ten o'clock each day and give receipts for the pictures. Only one more week until February 15. It has been deemed advisable not to hold the Annual open after March 1 for delinquent seniors. It is just as easy now as any time to have those pictures taken.
All fraternities and organizations that are going to be represented in the annual should also get their pictures taken as soon as possible and by no means later than March 1. If in doubt about anything see Moore or Ramsey. Those who have already had sittings should be sure to get the pictures at the photographers and bring them to the checkstand at once.
IMPORTANT SCIENCE WORK.
Former Student Working in University Laboratories.
Alban Stewart, who has just returned from a scientific expedition to the Galapagos Islands, is now working in the botanical laboratories of the University, classifying and preserving the specimens collected on the trip. Mr. Stewart was a member of the party of eleven who were sent out by the California Academy of Science. The party left San Francisco on June 28, 1905, and returned on November 29, 1906, after being out just seventeen months and one day. The other members of the party were: R. H. Beck, chief of the expedition and master of the vessel which was called the "Schooner Academy;" J. S. Hunter and E. W. Gifford, ornithologists; J. R. Slevin and E. R. King, hepetologists; F. X. Williams, entomologist; W. H. Ochsner, geologist; and Alban Stewart, botanist.
Several stops were made at islands on the Mexican and Central American coast and then the vessel proceeded south to the Galapagos group of islands where a landing was made at the southeast corner of the group. This was done so that the wind, which is always a southeaster, would blow them along their course as they advanced with their work.
Mr. Stewart said: "There are about seventeen islands, which were worked upon, in the group, of which six are fairly large ones, the others being merely rocks sticking up out of the water. The islands are all of volcanic formation, and vegetation is found only near the tops, which are always surrounded by heavy mists. The party brought back about 7,000 birds, 4,000 reptiles, 9,000 plants, several thousand insects and a great many rocks."
Mr. Stewart is now preparing to do his work in the laboratories here as the buildings of the California Academy of Science were destroyed by the earthquake last May. His main work has not yet begun as his collections of material have not arrived from San Francisco. When his work is finished he expects to give the University a complete set of plants from the islands. Mr. Stewart received his A. B. from the University of Kansas in 1896 and his A.M. in 1897, and is a member of the honorary scientific fraternity Sigma Xi.
Henry Woods, one of Colorado's crack football men, registered here yesterday. He will be a valuable addition to our team next year. Woods is able to put the shot 41 feet. He weighs 210 pounds.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6. 1907
Missouri and Oklahoma universities have both taken up the proposition of university emblems for their debaters. Both the Independent and the Umpire have been boasting the idea editorially for the last two weeks. The thing is bound to come, and the University of Kansas should not be behind. A gayel with the university letter seems to be the favored design both at Missouri and Oklahoma.
The most significant single fact that could be selected from the mass of things that make up the present University year is the unprecedented activity in the Young Men's Christian Association. Its membership is growing by leaps and bounds, and Secretary Hagerman does not hesitate to predict three hundred members by the first of the year—just double any previous membership. The reasons are not far to seek. The Association is doing things this year. It is taking a stand more in keeping with a college men's organization, and is showing its sympathy with every branch of University interests. It is no longer said that the Y. M. C. A. is a "narrow, prejudiced set," as has been said of it. The relation of the Association to the fraternities is largely responsible for the change. The general secretary is devoting a large part of his time to fraternity men, and he has classes in seven of the eight fraternities and meets them every week. The point of the whole matter is that the Association is breaking down a lot of prejudice, and is demonstrating by its eminently practical work that it has a place in the life of the University.
The Kansan will be delivered to any address for the rest of the year for fifty cents. This price is for mailing subscriptions, as well as for the city delivery by Carriers. Subscribe for your friends at home.
What are you going to do next summer? Inquire at the K. U. Pantatorium if you want a job.
The University of Kansas endeavors to assist those of its graduates who desire to teach in securing positions, and at the same time be of service to high schools, academies and colleges which may be in need of competent instructors. To this end a committee of the faculty preserves a complete list and record of graduates who are engaged in teaching or have fitted themselves especially for such work. The University authorities are thus prepared at any time to recommend persons who are well qualified for any position that may be made vacant. In so doing, great care is exercised, the special qualifications of various teachers for the particular position in hand being in every case fully considered. Communication in regard to teachers should be addressed to the Chancellor.
"THE WEST AT HOME."
C. M. Harger to Write for The Outlook.
Charles Moreau Harger, director of the department of Journalism of the University of Kansas, will write during 1907 a series of articles for The Outlook under the general title. "The West at Home." Mr. Harger will make a cheerful and optimistic study of Middle Western life in intimate phases and with unconventional treatment. The social development of the West is quite as interesting as that of industries and population, and has never been adequately treated. All Mr. Harger's writing is marked by great sincerity and entertaining qualities. There will be three articles, entitled "In the Country," "In the Town," and "The Western Spirit."

About forty freshmen fraternity men held a smoker at Fraternal Aid Hall last night. Coffee and sandwiches were served as refreshments, and the music was furnished by a quartette of negroes who sang, danced and played. The affair was such a success that a permanent organization was formed and plans made for several more such smokers. Milton Cain was elected president, and Paul Lobaugh, treasurer.

Civil Engineers Reorganized.
The Civil Engineering Society has been reorganized and its membership greatly increased. The Society is giving to each member a neat certificate and is having programs printed, in book form, to be distributed at their first meeting, Thursday evening, 7:30 p.m., February 7. There will be six meetings this term, at three of which special speakers will be present. The meeting for March 7th will be addressed by John Lyle Harrington, C. E., K. U. '95, of the firm of Waddell & Harrington, Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Ira G. Hedrick, consulting engineer of Kansas City, Mo., will address the meeting on November 28. On April 11 Dean Green of the Law School will address the Society on "The Expert Witness." Dean F. O. Marvin will give the opening address Thursday evening of this week. The other evenings will be occupied by professors and students of the Civil Engineering department.
An employment bureau will be carried on in connection with the society and an attempt will be made to obtain positions for the members of the society.
The officers recently elected are: Prof. H. A. Rice, advisor; B. B. Romig, president; H. C. McClure, vice-president; K. G. Williams, secretary and treasurer.
Opportunities for Teachers.
One hundred and twenty more American teachers will be needed in the Philippines for the next school year. Advices to this effect were received at the bureau of insular affairs from the board of education in the Philippines. The director of education, who has just reached the United States from Manilla, will devote much of his time to the work of selecting these teachers. Fifty of them will be appointed at entrance salaries of $1,200 a year and the remainder at somewhat smaller salaries.
The duties of these teachers are to a great extent supervisory and it has been found that education and character counts even more than former experience in teaching. Appointees to the positions will be selected from those passing the civil service examinations and will go to the islands under a two year contract, although a majority of those going over in previous years have remained in the service for a long time.
Kansas University and normal graduates and those who will graduate at the end of the current year from Kansas colleges are especially desired.

About one hundred University men attended the "Membership Jolly" at the City Y. M. C.A.last evening. The boys made good use of the bowling alleys and swimming pool. After every one had a turn at the games, the crowd assembled in the lecture room, where informal speeches were made. Secretary Coleman welcomed the boys to the use of the building. Professor Hopkins gave some very interesting plans that the Advisory Board of the University Y.M.C.A. has made in reference to the new Association House. The need of such a building is recognized by the Board and active measures are now being planned. Secretary Hagerman gave a "dope sheet" of the progress of the association this year. Two hundred and eight men are now members and the three hundred mark is the goal for this year.

DEFEAT OTTAWA
JAYHAWKERS WON FIRST GAME BY CLOSE SCORE.
Play Nebraska at Lincoln Tonight.—Four Games Next Week.
Ottawa, Kan., Feb. 8, 1907. Special.-The Jayhawkers defeated the Ottawa basket ball team 37 to 35 in a hotly contested game on the Ottawa court tonight. The Baptists had a slight advantage in the first half, but K. U. came back strong, Hackett, the K. U. center, showing a surprising reversal in form both in team work and free throwing. McCune and W. Miller, the "pony" forwards of the visitors, did some spectacular work in the second half, McCune tossing the winning basket at the call of time. The work of Milton Miller, the Jayhawker guard, made it hard for the Ottawa forwards to score field goals. K. U. used team work to get the ball close to the basket and did not risk long shots, while Ottawa was forced to take long ones on account of the guarding of Miller and Bergen.
Nebraska is to be played at Lincoln tonight. This is the first athletic event between the Jayhawkers and Cornhuskers this year and the men are going in to win. Last year Nebraska was defeated in basket ball 38 to 17; in base-ball we gave Nebraska one game out of four; in football everyone knows the score; in fact we defeated the Cornhuskers in every line of athletics except track last year. The game tonight is the beginning of a new year in athletics.
Next week the team plays the Farmers at Manhattan, the Soldiers at Fort Riley, the Teachers at Emporia, the Methodists at Baldwin, and the Athletes at Newton. These are all hard games, and if the team is able to win half of them in their demoralized condition, Kansas should be satisfied.
Is Making Good.
The University of Kansas Glee Club is meeting with great success on its trip through central and western Kansas. Everywhere the club is meeting with the heartiest kind of a reception. Dances and parties have been given in the boys honor after nearly every concert. The work of the club is receiving much favorable mention everywhere the boys sing. The Club will give a concert at St. Marys this evening. The club elected officers for next year after the concert Thursday night. They are: R. E. Teal, manager and Frank Frickleton, assistant manager and treasurer.

A "HOWLING" SUCCESS.
Missouri Glee Club Pleases a Large Audience.
The University of Missouri Glee Club gave an excellent concert in Fraternal Aid Hall Thursday evening before a fair sized audience. From the standpoint of music, they came up to their advance notices amply. Their voices were good, their selections well chosen and their appearance on the whole decidedly pleasing. Their stunts, however, were way below last year's average and as a general rule fell flat. The much touted swell programs, for which the state of Missouri is said to pay many sheckels, failed to arrive, and the audience was kept guessing whether it was "Turkey in the Straw" or the "Pilgrims' Chorus" from Tannhauser that was being rendered. After the concert those who wished to get their full seventy-five cents' worth stayed for an informal dance and met the Missouri boys. Pryor Combs, a junior in the law school here last year, was one of the soloists of the Missouri club.
Harold P. Chase, editor of the Topeka Capital, and a graduate of Harvard, delivered an address in chapel yesterday. Mr. Chase graduated with a class that contained some of the most eminent journalists in the United States, among whom were William R. Hearst, and the editor of the New York Evening Post.
Harold P. Chase Speaks.
Mr. Chase did not impress the students as an orator, but as an eminently practical thinker. His speech dealt with education and its relation to citizenship. He characterized the last century as the one of greatest social progress in the history of the world, and said that much of it was brought about by the greater education of our times. Mr. Chase is an ardent worker for higher education and has always been a friend of the University.

GOOD CHANCES
UNIVERSITY APPROPRIATIONS REPORTED FAVORABLY.
Ways and Means Committee Make No Reduction.—State Institutions Fare Well.
The ways and means committee of the state senate has reported favorably on the full amount asked by the Chancellor for the expenses of the University for the next two years. For 1908 the University gets $267,000 for salaries, repairs and general maintenance and $100,000 for a civil and mechanical engineering building. For 1909 the recommendation of the committee is $263,000 in salaries, repairs and general maintenance, and $150,000 for new buildings. The amount recommended is all the University has asked, and it is now thought that the passage of the bill is practically assured. The committee is very earnest in its recommendation that the full amount be allowed. A member of the committee recited the fact that there are in Kansas almost 10,000 students attending state institutions of higher learning, while Kansas has been spending less than any of the neighboring states on its institutions.
The total appropriation for all state institutions reaches the sum of $1,937,034,the largest in the history of Kansas. The state university of course receives the largest sum of this. The state agricultural college also receives $220,000 for new building. Senator Miller expressed a prevailing sentiment in a speech before the committee when he said: "Our educational institutions come to us this year asking the largest appropriation in our history. We have held them back from session to session until in some departments, at least, they are at a standstill in the midst of a commonwealth which is making wonderful progress in every line of social and industrial development. I realize the earnest spirit of economy which should guide us, but I am in favor of dealing liberally, progressively and broadly with our educational institutions and allowing them to take a rank where the greatness of our state demands."
Class Dates Changed.
The Freshmen-Junior and the Sophomore-Senior basket ball games will be played at eight o'clock Monday night instead 4:30. The Freshmen-Senior and the Sophomore-Junior games will be played at 8 o'clock on Wednesday night instead of 4:30. These changes have been made to remove the conflict with the lectures of Dr. Charles S. Minot.
DR. MINOT'S LECTURES.
Harvard Man Gives Course ot Five Next Week.
Dr. Charles Sedgewick Minot, professor of Histology in the Harvard Medical School, will begin his course of lectures on Biology and Philosophy Monday afternoon. The subjects of the five lectures are: "Certain Laws of Growth;" Cells in Relation to Growth and Death;" "The Four Laws of Age;" "TheBiological Interpretation of Life;" and "Consciousness and Evolution." The course concludes with a chapel address on the last subject Friday morning. Professor Minot is one of the most brilliant exponents of science in the country. He is considered an international authority in the field of embryology. He is president of the Boston Society of Natural History, and belongs to numerous scientific societies both abroad and in the United States. He has written many books and essays on embryology and other branches of his profession.
The Pi Phi Party.
The Pi Phis gave their annual spring party in F. A. A. Hall last night. Kelley's orchestra, hidden behind a beautiful bank of palms and ferns, furnished the music. Dean and Mrs. Green led the grand march, which started at nine o'clock with about 120 couples in line. In the receiving line were: Mary Hayden, Mable Marsh, Mrs. Marsh, Marjory Marshall, Claudia Pendleton, Mrs. Weaver. Nelle Mitchell, Lucile Dillard, Agnes Evans and Mary Murvine gave out the programs of plain white, bearing the Greek letters of the sorority on the cover.
The out-of-town guests were: Sylvia Abraham, Mary Buckles Frances Shryock, Herbert Breidenthal, Julian Harvey Kansas City; Anna Lanter, Olathe; Nina Fell, Concordia; Lillian Beck, Ruth Hayden, Holton; Hazel Higgins, Mary Kellogg, Emporia; Cecil Land, Eldorado; Mary Chamberlain, Maude Grimes, Harry Wolfe, Topeka; Oscar Hoefer, Higginsville, Missouri.
The Cottlow Recital.
The piano recital by Miss Augusta Cottlow of Boston in the University chapel Wednesday evening was one of the most thoroughly appreciated musical events of the year. Miss Cottlow is an artist of the highest class and her interpretations of the difficult selections Wednesday were excellent. Her technique was almost wonderful and brought forth much applause. This was the third number of the course of artists recitals that is being given at the university this winter.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1907.
The second semester is under way and the number is thinned as usual as the result of the finals. It is inevitable that there should be failures in an institution where the standards are being raised constantly. It is not a disgaace to fail by any means-often the highest standing goes to students who, as the result of aptitude, study least. The man who plods on and makes up his failures and graduates with more III's to his credit than I'm often deserves more praise for consistent work than his Phi Beta Kappa neighbor.
The action of the University authorities in raising the entrance requirements of the medical school is significant in that it marks a tendency exactly opposite to that of a few years ago. Then it was fashionable to talk about cutting down the college course. Eminent educators discoursed at length on the advisability of granting a degree in three years instead of four. That was the extreme. The pendulum of opinion is swinging toward the opposite end of its path. It is inevitable that requirements should be raised gradually so long as the course of development of our educational system is uninterrupted, and only some sort of revolution can do that. More and more will be expected of college and professional men from year to year. The world of fifty years hence will no more be satisfied with the present standard than our own time is satisfied with the things our fathers and grandfathers had to be content with. Professional men must know of a great many things at least in a general way, and it would not be surprising to find a college course required as a prerequisite to a professional course in a decade or two.
Hagerman, the volunteer track coach is working harder for the interests of track athletics than any professional coach ever worked. He spends all afternoon in the gymnasium training men for the indoor
meets and shows more solicitude for the men under him than any coach the University ever had in any line of athletics. The fact that Hagerman gave up a fellowship at Oxford to devote his time to the interests of the men at Kansas University shows his self-sacrifice, and the men appreciate his services. There are many distance men now doing well in the new gymnasium but the supply of sprinters and high hurdlers is too limited. What Hagerman wants is a hundred men to try out for these events. A man can develop into a sprinter with only a few weeks of training but it takes months to work out a distance man. It is a fine art to be able to take a pair of spikes and beat a bunch of fellows who think that they can run and every university man should be skilled in the sprinting line. A few days of training each week will enable a man to beat any untrained sprinter provided he has a little natural ability. Hagerman makes the point that track work will make a man out of a spindle legged dude quicker than any other line of athletics. There is now no reason why Kansas should not have a crack track team if the men take advantage of the favorable conditions.

CHANGES IN FOOTBALL RULES
Forward Pass Will Be Less Dangerous to Side Using It.
At the time of the Michigan Pennsylvania game Coach Fielding H. Yost protested against the use of a lineman to carry the ball and the objection was based on an interpretation of the rules made shortly before by the football rules committee. The justice of the stand taken by Coach Yost was affirmed by the recent legislation of the rules committee. The football regulations for the season of 1907 allow the use of a lineman only upon one condition: he must stay in his position until the ball is put in play.
The rule governing the forward pass has also been changed. The penalty for an unsuccessful attempt last year was loss of the ball; for the season of 1907 a loss of fifteen yards has been substituted, and the side failing retains possession of the ball. This will materially aid the offense and make the forward pass less precarious as a play.
Owing to the lack of scoring last season and the consequent ties, the length of the halves has again changed to thirty-five minutes. The double umpire system has been made obligatory. Under this year's rules it was merely suggested that two umpires be used. One umpire will watch the defense and the other the scrimmage line, while the official will be free to place his whole attention on the offense.
Nearly anybody can make a picture of you, but if you want something better than the ordinary, have Morris make your negatives. Our twenty years' experience in posing and lighting enables us to get the very best results possible and please you after all others fail.-The Morris Studio, 829 Mass. St. Phones 312.

Topeka Editor Says Newspaper Men Don't Get Rich.
Harold P. Chase, editor-in-chief of the Topeka Capital, addressed the classes in Journalism Friday morning on "The Editorial Branch of Newspaper Work." His talk may have been somewhat discouraging to the young journalist who has been expecting to make his fortune in the business, inasmuch as he said that there was less money to be made in newspaper work than any other profession he could think of. But in Mr. Chase's opinion the exhilirations and satisfactions of the work fully make up for the poor financial returns; and the satisfaction of knowing your paper is exerting an influence for the good causes one to forget some other disadvantages. He said further: "If you are sure that the journalistic profession is your choice then be an educated journalist. The day has past when Horace Greeley refused to have college bred men on his staff. Everywhere there is a demand for them."
State Institutions Not in It.
The University of Kansas will in all probability not be concerned with the gift of $32,-000,000 made this week by John D. Rockefeller to the institutions of higher education in the United States. The money is given to the Educational Association to be used at their discretion, but it is understood that none of the money is to go to state universities. "Of course we do not expect to share in the division of the money," said Chancellor Strong today. "It is a fact that wealthy men are much opposed to aiding state institutions of higher learning on account of the democratic spirit that pervades a public institution."

NUMBER 38
U. APPROPRIATION FOUND ONE DISSENTING VOTE.
Now Up to the Lower House— But Little Opposition Is Expected.
When the bill was brought up for consideration yesterday, Waggener moved to reduce the engineering appropriation to $50,000 but met with such opposition that he withdrew the motion. Several Senators made warm speeches in favor of the appropriation and the final vote stood: ayes, 32; noes, 1.
The state Senate yesterday passed the University appropriation bill by an almost unanimous vote, just as it had been reported by the ways and means committee. The only fight made on the bill was by Bailie Waggener, and he relented in his opposition when he found he was alone.
The bill as passed by the senate carries $780,000,the largest sum the University ever received. Of this amount $100,000 is for the engineering building. The bill now has only to go through the lower house to become a law,and no strong opposition is anticipated.The passage of the bill so far with such a small opposition is regarded as a fine testimonial of the confidence that is placed in Chancellor Strong.His request for money has been met by the Legislature without reduction, while Manhattan was compelled to lower its request $120,000.

IMPORTANT ATHLETIC RULES.
Board Takes Action Which Affects Many Athletes.
The substance of the eligibility rules laid down is: That no freshman can compete in Kansas athletics after this year, no games can be scheduled outside the University for the freshmen football men, and that
After three consecutive meetings of the Athletic Board some vital points in eligibility of Kansas athletes were passed in a long session yesterday afternoon. The purpose of the action taken by the board was to show the stand Kansas will take at the next meeting of the "Big Five."
no man can compete in intercollegiate athletics more than three years. Under the latter provision Rouse, Milton and Reed of the football team may be ineligible to represent Kansas next fall on the gridiron and Parker, Young and Barnard will finish their athletic career this spring.

Mr. Blackmar is a nephew of Professor Blackmar, of the Economics department. Mr. Gowenlock won his spurs in debating by being a member of the freshman team that defeated the sophomores last year. Mr. Jones has a reputation in the law school as an orator.
There were eleven contestants in the Iowa preliminary and it was by far the best contest held this year. Some of the best debaters in the University took part. The speeches were nearly all well prepared, and many were eloquently delivered. The question was: "Resolved, That the solution of our city traction problem should be sought through private ownership." All the speakers chosen were representatives of the negative. The same question will be up for discussion in the Washburn preliminaries tonight.

Quill Club Elects.
At a meeting of the Quill Club yesterday, Lawrence Cooper was elected president for the ensuing year, Miss Marjorie Marshall, vice-president, and Miss Sibyl Betts, secretary. Social meetings will be held frequently as a means of keeping the members interested in the club, and it is proposed to make three consecutive unexcused absences from regular meetings sufficient ground for dropping the absent member from the rolls.
Professor Duncan will speak to the members of the Graduate School, next Saturday evening, February 16, at the home of Miss Walling, 945 Connecticut Street.

LOST TWOGAMES
BASKET BALL TEAM LOSE AT LINCOLN AND MANHATTAN.
Won at Ottawa and Normal--Finish Series of Games at Topeka Tonight.
The Kansas basket ball five was defeated by the Cornhuskers at Lincoln Saturday, in a hard fought game. The Kansas boys attribute their defeat to the unfavorable condition under which they played. Their train arrived at Lincoln several hours late and the Kansans barely had time to eat and dress before the game. In the first half Nebraska scored 18, Kansas 5 points. Owing to the bad condition of the Jayhawkers they fouled repeatedly and were unable to score on field goals. In the second half the Kansas team took a brace but were unable to overtake their opponents.
Kansas was also defeated at Manhattan Monday night. The boys won at the State Normal last night and play tonight at Topeka with Washburn.

DR. MINOT'S LECTURES.
Course is Proving Very Popular with Students.
Dr. Charles Sedgewick Minot, of the Harvard Medical school, has delivered the first three lectures in his course on Biology and Philosophy. The lecture Monday was rather an introduction to the rest of the course. The subject was "Certain Laws of Growth." It was illustrated with many interesting lantern slides, which coupled with the pleasing manner and brilliant style of the speaker made an otherwise dry subject very interesting.
The talk on Tuesday was on "Cells in Relation to Growth and Death." Today Dr. Minot lectured on "The Four Laws of Age." As the course proceeds the subjects become more general and interesting.
Dr. Minot will deliver the chapel address Friday morning on "Consciousness and Evolution," and will treat the subject in such terms as to be easily understood by everybody. The large attendance at Dr. Minot's lectures shows the popularity he has gained at this institution
and also that he is appreciated fully as much as his fellow professor of Harvard, Dr. Palmer, who lectured here a short time ago.
REQUIREMENTS RAISED.
Doctors Must Have a Year of College Work.
The officials of the University have raised the requirements for entrance to the medical department to include one year of approved college work, and the requirement will probably be raised in the near future so as to include two years of work in the college. This increase in requirement does not go into effect until September 1908, so that it will be possible next year for students to enter under the old conditions. With the requirements thus raised it will be possible for every student to obtain the bachelor's degree at the end of the first two years of medical work. The medical school urges students expecting to enter medicine to so shape their courses as to include in the first two years such studies as will help them in medical work. Among the subjects recommended are, chemistry, biology, consisting of zoology or comparative anatomy. They are also urged to take all the French, German and English they can obtain.
The medical school has been making wonderful progress of late. In 1905-'06 the course was raised from two to four years, and now five years work is required for a degree and this will soon be soon be raised to six. The students in the medical school are now required to work on Saturday the same as other days.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13. 1907
Dr. Minot is attracting large crowds daily to his lectures in the University chapel. The Harvard men who have visited the University this year have met remarkably responsive audiences.
Chancellor Strong well stated the strongest recommendation for the Big Five from our point of view. It would give us more publicity. Only the local press devotes space to us as it is. Organization may be a fad, but so long as it is, Kansas may as well go in for it. It pays to advertise in matters educational as well as in any business enterprise.
Over at Missouri there is an agitation for an elevator in Academic Hall. The past weeks of icy walks made quite a strong impression here on Oread in favor of some sort of a lift to the top of the hill from the Ohio street level. It's a problem worthy of the "figgering" of some of our many engineers.
The question of Kansas entering the Big Five was informally discussed at the last meeting of the University Council and the prevailing sentiment seemed to be in favor of joining the organization although there was some opposition on account of the Freshman rule. Chancellor Strong is very much in favor of joining the Big Five. He said in giving his reasons: "I believe Kansas is letting an opportunity pass that she will not soon again have. Of course all the other institutions will in the near future join some such organization, and it will be there a very difficult matter for Kansas to enter such a league. I believe that our athletics would be placed upon a finer basis and we would be recognized in the athletic world, which is not the case at the present. I have often been in cities outside the state when our football team played important games and could find no account of it in the largest papers although Missouri and other states were given plenty of space. It goes to
show that Kansas is not recognized as she should be in athletics. Washington, Missouri, and Iowa Universities have all indicated their intention of joining and I have strong reason to believe that after June 1, when the athletic management is changed at Nebraska, that our neighbor on the north will join. If we remain out, I repeat, we are losing an opportunity that will not come again soon, and will greatly affect our athletic standing."
High School Science.
More than thirty of the high schools accredited to the University of Kansas have recently equipped laboratories for science work. The amount of money expended has varied from one hundred to three hundred dollars, and in every case purchases have been made with reference to strengthening the work preparatory to higher education.

Dr. Minot opened the program with a talk on the growth of the Harvard Medical School, which he illustrated with lantern slides, showing first the small building which was the foundation of the school and the present magnificent group of buildings. He said that we had a much better start here and prophesied a very rapid growth for our medical school. Going further he said it would be the best medical school in the country.
After Dr. Minot's talk refreshments were served and the rest of the evening was spent socially and letting the students become personally acquainted with Dr. Minot. There were over one hundred present.

STUDENTS FILE OBJECTION TO PROPOSED RULES.
Defend Freshman Football Team.-- Object to Conference Unless Nebraska Is In.
At the students' mass meeting in chapel Thursday a set of resolutions was drawn up expressing the dissatisfaction of the students with some of the proposed regulations for the Missouri Valley Conference. The principal objections raised by the students were centered around the question of going into the league if Nebraska stays out. The abolition of the freshman football team, and the enforcement of the undergraduate rule were criticized. The rules as recommended by the Athletic Board have to be ratified by the University council, and the students want to present their side of the case before the Council takes final action. The following resolutions which were adopted Thursday will be presented to the Council at its next meeting:
Whereas, the Board of Directors of the University of Kansas has recommended certain rules to be adopted by the University Council relative to the formation of "The Missouri Valley Conference of Faculty Members" consisting of the following Universities: University of Iowa, University of Kansas, University of Missouri, University of Nebraska, and Washington University, and believing that such an organization will be detrimental to the athletic interests of the University of Kansas.
Therefore be it resolved that it is the sentiment of the student body:
First, that this conference should not be organized unless the four state universities above named all agree to enter this organization.
Second, that Washington University should not be admitted to this organization.
Third, that section a, of rule 1, relative to amateur standing

LOSE TO BAKER.
Kansas Took a Brace in Second Half.
The Baker basket-ball team defeated the K. U. team Thursday night at Baldwin 39 to 24. During the first half the Jayhawkers missed the goal time after time and the score stood 18 to 6. In the second half the Methodists threw only one more goal than the University. Siler never failed to get the ball on the toss-up, but the forwards had hard luck hitting baskets. Allen, the Baker coach, gave K. U. the credit for the best team work by a visiting team at Baldwin this year.

SATURDAY, FEBRIARY 16, 1907.
The warm spring days will no doubt bring the usual number of view solicitors in town, to point the way to wealth during the summer vacation.
The good showing that the basket-ball team made against Baker Thursday night means that we will have the best team in the country when the new gymnasium is completed. The material for a good team is in school and all that is necessary is a place to practice.
The "spring suit" question is now before the public. Isn't it queer that the college man must put on feather weight clothes before the snow leaves and the 1st of September don winter clothing when the mercury stands at $ 90^{\circ} $ ?
The spirit of the student mass meeting Thursday should not be misconstrued. The men behind the movement feel that they are as much a part of the University as any one connected with it; that their interest in her affairs is just as sincere and worthy of consideration as any one's. It was in this spirit that the meeting was called and conducted. The resolution adopted will be presented to the University council for fair consideration, as voicing the sentiment of the student portion of the University community. The movement was not an attempt at dictation, and it altogether commedable.
X. Y. Z. Have Interesting Speeches
The X. Y. Z. debating club met in regular session last night and listened to a number of addresses on the campaign of 1860. Just before the close of the meeting a hotly contested debate was given upon the feasibility of allowing the negro to represent the University in intercollegiate debating.

WASHBURN DEBATERS NAMED
Heil, Adams and Lapham will Debate the Congregationalists.
At the preliminary contest held Wednesday evening for the selection of men to represent the University of Kansas in the debate with Washburn College, Sydney Heil, Clyde Adams and Wilbur Lapham were chosen, with Harry Randall as first alternate.
Mr. Heil is a freshman in the College. He received his training in debating in a Minnesota academy. He was chosen as alternate in the Iowa preliminary. Adams is a senior law, and was formerly a Washburn man. The result of this contest ought to reconcile him to the change. Lapham spent last year at the University of Missouri, but two years ago was prominent in debating circles in this institution.
The question to be debated with Washburn is the same as that with Iowa: "Resolved, That American cities should seek the solution of their traction problems in private ownership." Nine men competed for places on the debate, which will be held here probably during the latter part of April.
This is the last preliminary of the spring, except those of the Sophomores and Freshmen for their debate. From this time on the men will be busy preparing for their final contests.

In the second series of the basket ball tournament the seniors defeated the freshmen 33 to 23, and the sophomores smothered the juniors 55 to 24. The first game was interesting. Neither team displayed much teamwork but they were well matched. The second was a farce. Johnson and Wohler of the sophomores threw goals at will and their splendid work was the feature of the evening's play. The sophomores have excellent team work and would make a good showing against the 'Varsity.

University Opened in '66.-Forty Students, Three Instructors.
Ice cream at Vic's.
Ex-Chancellor Snow delivered a very interesting address in chapel Tuesday on the subject, "The First Day of the University." In the fall of 1866, before the carpenters had finished the work at old North College, the University was opened. Forty pupils composed the student body; three instructors, of which Dr. Snow was one, made up the faculty. Dr. Snow was professor of all the sciences, mathematics, and sometimes Greek and Latin. He told of the opening exercises at the University, and of the poem alluding to the war times in Lawrence, which contained the lines:
Then ran the streets with patriots' blood, Not dren by dren, but in a flood.
Not drop by drop, but in a flood.
Dr. Snow says the students of that first year are now scattered over the United States from Maine to California, and he named a number who have become famous in different lines.
Students whose finances are limited can have no excuse for going on the hill with their clothes wrinkled and their shoes not shined. We will press eight pieces and give you five shines all for $1.00. K. U. Pantatorium.
Quillers Give Social.
The next regular meeting of Quill Club next Tuesday afternoon will be devoted principally to the first monthly tea of the club. Members of the faculty of the English department are specially invited. A light program will be prepared for the occasion, and the meeting will be largely social.

THE KANSAN.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
VOLUME III.
BIG FOUR ACTION
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FEBRUARY 20, 1907.
KANSAS, MISSOURI, IOWA AND WASHINGTON AGREE.
Rules to Take Effect September 1, 1907-Three Year Rule Not Retroactive.
The regulations were re-examined and it was endeavored to so modify them that all the universities concerned would be satisfied. In particular the objections raised by the recent mass meeting at the University of Kansas were considered and some changes were made in the sections objected to.
Last Saturday representatives from Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Washington Universities met at Kansas City, Mo., to come to an agreement upon regulations for the Missouri Valley Conference and to settle objections made to the regulations previously proposed. Kansas was represented by Professor Walker, Manager Lansdon and Dr. Naismith; Missouri by Dr. Hetherington and Manager Caldwell; Iowa by Catlin and Washington by Langsdorf. Nebraska sent no delegate.
Section a rule 1 was modified so that "no student may participate in intercollegiate contests, who has taken part for a money prize in any athletic contest." Section d rule 1 was modified to: "No student shall be allowed to participate in intercollegiate athletics unless he has passed all intervening work regularly required in the University for the year of residence previous to participation." Rule 5 relative to undergraduates was abolished. Rule 7 relative to the freshman football team was left unchanged. It was decided to ask that these rules take effect September 1, 1907, and provided that the three-year rule will not apply to any student who participated in intercollegiate athletics prior to September 1, 1906.
The class of 1908 is planning a unique party for March 1 in a Farmers' Ball in costume. No one will be admitted who is not in costume, and a gentleman's prize and a lady's prize will be given for the best costumes. It is not intended that it should be a "tacky" ball, but the dairymaid and flannel-shirt style of dress will prevail. Suitable refreshments will be served. Positively no spectators will be admitted to the gallery.
The Farmers' Ball.
The rules governing athletics are becoming more rigid by the action of the Chicago and other associations, and if Kansas expects to maintain relations with the foremost universities of this section, her rules must become more rigid also.

The Sophomores and Juniors are to settle the K. U. class championship Thursday as the result of the last series played Monday night. The Freshies gave the Sophs a score by taking the lead until the close of the first half when the '09 men pulled the game out of the fire.
The Seniors gave the Juniors a merry chase but the Prom men managed to keep just out of reach after the fashion of a rainbow and came out three points to the good. The free throwing of Lloyd Russell was the feature of the evening.

PHI BETA KAPPA ELECTS.
Ten Girls and Four Men----Five from Lawrence.
The honorary fraternity of Phi Beta Kappa, of the University, at their election last Monday elected fourteen new members, five of whom are residents of Lawrence. Ten are girls and the remaining four are men. There are about 100 seniors in this year's class, and as the fraternity can not take in more than one-fifth of the entire class, there will be about six more chosen at the second election which will come in April. The names of those chosen Monday are as follows:
Lillie Bernhard, Lawrence; Rillie Bernhard, Lawrence; Gracia Blair, Lawrence; Lawrence Cooper, Peabody; Wilimina Everett, Lawrence; Ruby Jackson, Horton; FrankJ. Klingberg, Dillon; Lura Lee Lemmon, Warrensburg, Missouri; Hallie Lasley, Kansas City, Kansas; Mignonette Spilman, McPherson; Harry E. Squire, Attica; Genevieve Sterling, Lawrence; Raymond S. Taylor, Ft. Scott; and Rara Benn, LaCrosse, who was considered a member of last year's class.
NOT PATRIOTIC ENOUGH.
Kansas Hermit Says We Should Be More So.
On Washington's birthday, one year ago, the Kansas Hermit climbed the slopes of Mt. Oread to ascertain the attitude of the free schools toward the founder of our country. He was very disappointed to find that not even a flag was flying. Learning that Chancellor Strong was ill, he considered that fact an extenuating circumstance. This year he hopes that more respect will be given to the day. He says we have a great nation, and owe the foundation of the greatness to Washington.
The Old Hermit is a venerable figure in Kansas history, as he came to this state with the first party of emigrants sent out from New England. He took the claim on which he now lives before Lawrence was in existence. He played a prominent part in the politics of that time and was one of the judges for the precinct of Lawrence in the election of a territorial legislature in 1855.
The Hermit will start from the capitol building at Topeka next Saturday on a pilgrimage to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he will visit E. G. Ross, former senator from Kansas, who was ostracised because he voted against the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. The hermit says the pilgrimage is one in behalf of patriotism and to attract public attention to the wrongs of one who saved the nation from a great wrong. He was present at the impeachment trial of Johnson and heard Ross give his vote.

The change in weather came just in time to avert the premature budding of the crop of spring poetry.
The dates for the University debates have been fixed and other organizations should see to it that there is no conflict with those dates. Let us make the debates University events.
Men of the University are cordially invited to take a couple of hours off and attend the Olympic games in Snow Hall Saturday evening. The show is free, and everybody is sure to get his money's worth.
The Mandolin club has amply vindicated its right to a place among the bona fide University organizations. The managers are to be congratulated on the success of the work which they have been doing on their own responsibility. The club makes good music and the success of the programs it has been giving furnishes a lot of good advertising for the institution.
Those who failed to get into the ranks of the Phi Beta Kappas have to console themselves with the reflection that the emblematic key will not prove the solution of every difficulty to be met in the rough-and-tumble life we have to live. It is an honor in that it shows a combination of energy and intelligence applied in a laudable way, but it is not by any means a perpetual ticket to easy street.
Friday of this week is a holiday in observance of the birthday of our first president. We are likely to forget the significance of the occasion, and in fact there is a tendency to pay too little attention to such things. The heroes of history do not count so much for what they were personally as for what the represent. The occasions of our national holidays should be the commemoration the ideals and the indomitable purpose of some of the men who made our early history.

Electricals Organize.
The electrical engineers organized a new club to be known as the Electrical Engineering Society Monday and elected officers for the remainder of the year. They are: Leland Strode president; Carl Dassler, vice president; R. L. Feagles, secretary; Arthur Groesbeck, treasurer.
The new organization will supersede the old compulsory organization that has been maintained by the senior electricals for some time. It is open to sophomores, juniors and seniors, and thesis credit will be given for papers presented to the society.
To Award "Gavel and O."
--for Spring and Summer are now ready for your inspection. Clothes that are totally different,
At a meeting of the Oratorical Association Tuesday evening, it was decided to recommend to the Oratorical Board the awarding of a "Gavel and O," as an honorary emblem, to men making the intercollegiate debating teams. The only specifications made were that the gavel is to intersect the "O" and that the emblem may be worn either on a jersey or specially designed pennant.— The Umpire (Oklahoma.)

W. W.M'CANDLESS ADDRESSED DEMOCRATIC BANQUET.
"Ideals vs Square Deals" Well Received.—Favorable Comment By Press.
Here's to Kansas, the Sunflower State,
Her honor we must redeem,
Here's to Democracy in ninety-eight,
Colonel Harris and Uncle Jimmy Green."
With these words, Wendell W. McCandless, closed his response to the toast, "Ideals vs Square Deals" last night in Topeka at the Democratic banquet. Last year Kansas was represented by Dennis J.
NUMBER 4
Sheedy who was given the honor by the press of having delivered the best speech of the evening. This year Mr. McCandless represented the University and the fact that he was given more space than any other speaker in press reports shows that Kansas University has again been represented by one of the most able speakers in the state.
WENDELL W. M'CANDLESS
T. W.
McCandless is a Democrat through and through and his speech is a reflection of his spirit. He said, "The square deal met its Waterloo in Kansas. Somehow the people didn't catch the inspiration. It was well enough advertised but it lacked the spirit. The people were looking not for square deals but for square men. But Curtis had a square deal that swept the table clean on the first hand. Hoch had a square deal for everybody, regardless of race, color, occupation or corporation. Kelly had a square deal although he dealt from the bottom. Coleman had a square deal, and I understand J. R. Burton is having a square deal."
McCandless is a senior in the college and is an actor as well as an orator. It will be remembered that he took a leading part in the farce, "My Wife's Bonnett" last fall at the opera house. His home is at Lincoln, Kansas.
George J. Benson of last year's law class, now practising law at Eldorado spoke on the "Democratic Possibilities."

'09 Basket-ball Five Win Championship with Ease.
The Sophs are now the basket ball champions of K. U. as they defeated the Juniors 60 to 21 Thursday night. One of the ex-champs said, "The Sophs took unfair advantage of us. They played fifty men, each of them weighed sixty tons, had three pairs of arms, moved at the rate of a mile a minute, were seventy feet tall, and were all red-headed. I saw them at the beginning of the game but never after. There was a continual roar as though heavy bodies were passing through space and every time I got on my feet something threw me against the pillars. Once I attempted to guard Johnson at the north end of the hall and closed my eyes for a moment. When I opened them the score-keeper was calling for more chalk and Johnson had thrown six goals at the south end of the court." At this the ex-champ closed his eyes and lapsed again into unconsciousness.

The Civil Engineering Society held a special meeting Thursday afternoon at 4:30 in the Junior drafting room and adopted a new constitution. The society also decided to offer a Trautwine or some other book equally as good as a prize for the best poster for the society bulletin board. This offer is to members only and the posters must be in by April 1. The posters are to be judged by faculty members. Prof. H. A. Rice also offered a $2.00 prize to the person who hands in the best poster.
There were only about twentyfive members present at the meeting. Members please keep your eye on the C.E. S. bulletin board for announcements, and do not forget the regular meeting to be held March 7, John Lyle Harrington, consulting engineer of Kansas City will speak.

PROMINNEWGYM
JUNIOR CLASS WILL GIVE ITS PARTY MAY 3.
Will Be Open to All Juniors and Seniors in All Schools of the University.
At a meeting of the Junior class Thursday noon it was dedecided that the "Prom" will be given in the new gymnasium on the evening of May 3. It was also voted that the Prom be opened to all seniors of three or four year courses on the same conditions that it has been open to seniors of the College and the Engineering school heretofore, that is, if the Prom fee was not paid last year it is paid this year. The middle classes of all three year courses such as the Law and Pharmacy schools have will be admitted as Juniors to be participants in the giving of the Prom. The Kansas City, Kansas University Medics as juniors and seniors will be invited to take part under the same conditions as the other schools of the University.
For several weeks the juniors have been looking forward to getting into the new gymnasium but not until a few days ago did Contractor Nadelhoffer agree to have the auditorium floor ready for use May 1. The big floor is a little more than twice the size of the F. A. A. floor and the circular balcony will be used by guests who prefer to watch the promenade. The floor will consist of polished maple.
In opening up the Prom to the entire junior and senior classes of the University the party will be by far the crowning social event of the year. There will be fully five hundred students eligible to participation besides about one hundred and fifty faculty guests that will be invited.
Ouill Club Meets.
The Quill club were entertained in the classical museum in Fraser hall Wednesday by Mrs. Cooper, Miss Marjorie Marshall presiding over the tea. Miss Griffin read a paper which proved to be of absorbing interest to her listeners. It was entitled "The Japanese Theater." Her own experiences and opinions were woven into the article which enhanced its brightness and interest. Professor Hopkins gave a boom talk on the club. There were about twenty-five present and each talk was greeted enthusiastically.

The University Masque club has practically decided to give a second public play some time late in April, and the managers of the club are working on two or three plays with a view to getting one that will do for a short tour of the nearby cities. Solon Smith, Jay Richardson and Frank Ellis, the managers, and Gus Koehler and L.S.Riddle were in Kansas City last night to see the production of "The Crisis" by the Woodward Stock Company. If the play merits their approval it will probably be selected for the April production.
Kansan Election.
The annual election of the Kansan board to fill the positions of editor, business manager and managing editor will be held next Monday at ten o'clock. All board members are asked to be present.

SATURDAY, FEBRIARY 23, 1907.
Holidays are good—but they usually call for a second for recuperation from the first.
The coming production of the "Pirates of Penzance" by the voice department assisted by the University orchestra promises to be one of the best musical stunts put on by University talent in some time. The cast has been filled for months, and rehearsals have been held regularly. The opera deserves support.
Does the declaration of a holiday on Washington's birthday serve a very important purpose? There is no particular ceremony or calling up of the significance of the day or of the reason for its observance. The average man simply forgets to come down to breakfast, lounges through the afternoon and evening, and that is all there is to it. The spirit of the holiday is all right, but practically it amounts to little.
The plans for the Junior Prom. as outlined in the meeting of the class Thursday promise an event that shall be more truly one for the whole University. For the first time everybody who is to get a degree, whether he be a three year or a four year man, will be counted a senior. The move will do much to make the Prom. what it should be, and will do much to foster a unity of feeling among the departments of the University.
The choice of W. W. McCandless, a senior in the College this year and George J. Benson, L. L. B. '06, to appear on the program at the Democratic banquet at Topeka last night was a recognition of the talent and material turned out at Kansas University. To speak at one of these political banquets is a stepping stone to a political career and an honor that any young man with political aspiration can well look forward to. Both McCandless and Benson were given more press space than the average speaker at the banquet.
Paleontology Collection.
H. F. Martin, of the Paleontology department, received a letter yesterday from the U. S. Transport Thomas, which has just arrived in San Francisco, saying that they have just landed a large collection of recent skeletons consigned to the University of Kansas. These skeletons were collected in the Philippines by 1st Lieutenant Surgeon Clarence L. Cole, who graduated from the Medical school of the University and also took Paleontology under Dr. Williston. The University collection of fossil reptiles and skeletons is conceded to be the most complete and efficient of any in the country for comparative study. The skeletons and skulls of lizards and other reptiles sent by Dr. Cole will make a valuable addition to our collection.

He is one of the most noted linguists in America and holds many positions of honor in the educational world, among them the presidency of the Modern Language Association of America and the presidency of the American Folk-lore Society He has lectured for many of our foremost colleges, last summer for the University of California. Next summer he lectures to Sorbonne of Paris as well as for the University of Kansas.

THE PIRATES OF PENZANCE.
Do not forget the "Pirates of Penzance" which is to be presented at the Bowersock Opera House next Thursday night by the students of the Fine Arts school, assisted by the University Orchestra. This is one of the best of the Gilbert and Sullivan light operas, and present rehearsals are promising a very artistic and attractive performance.
A Story of the Play to Be Given by the Fine Arts.
The scene is laid on the coast of Great Britan sometime during the reign of Queen Victoria. Mabel, the heroine, is, of course, greatly amoured of Frederick, a pirate apprentice, whose exacting conscience and keen sense of duty place him in more than one embarrassing and puzzling predicament. Ruth, a spinster of forty-seven, is the humorous character found in every light opera, funny, not through her intentions to be so, but rather through the ridiculous situations in which the authors of the plot have carried her to be placed.
Major-General Stanley, a retired officer of the British army, pompous, conceited, is conspicuous as the father of a large and beautiful family of daughters. The Sergeant of Police, with his mock bravery, is a very droll character. Edith, Kate and Isabel are three of General Stanley's daughters who serve to lead the chorus and thus help to keep the opera in action. The Pirate King and his righthand man, Samuel, though outwardly fierce and lawless, are at heart true British subjects, whose love for and loyalty to the sovereign serve in the end to draw the opera to a happy close. These characters are assisted by a chorus of twenty-four girls and boys.
The music is graceful and tuneful and the opera abounds in clever dialogues. A more than enjoyable evening is promised to all who attend the performance. Let us show our interest in this department of our University's work by a crowded house and enthusiastic support.

KANSAN ELECTS FOR THE ENSUING YEAR.
Carl Young Is Editor and Roy Roberts Managing Editor. Allen Dodge, Business Manager.
The annual election of editor, managing editor and business manager of the Kansan was held in the Kansan office Monday morning and the following officers were chosen: Carl Young, editor-in-chief; Roy Roberts, managing editor; Allen W. Dodge, business manager. The resignation of Emery Trekell was accepted, and
IRELAND
CARL H. YOUNG
Ray Loofbourrow was elected to fill the vacancy. After the election the board adjourned to Billy's and enjoyed a spread at the expense of the new officers.
The newly elected officers are all juniors, and with their election the provisions of the constitution adopted by the subscribers as stockholders two years ago, was put into effect completely. The new editor is a junior in the College, has been prominent in track work, was a member of the athletic board last year, and has been managing editor of the Kansan for the past three months. He is from Sumner county, and is a graduate of the Sumner county high school.
Roy Roberts, managing editor-elect, is a graduate of the Lawrence high school and is a junior in the College. He is perhaps the most practical newspaper man in the University, having had several years of experience on the staff of the local papers, and as University correspondent for the Kansas City Star.
Allen Dodge, the new business manager, is a junior engineer and has been connected with the Kansan throughout the present year as assistant business manager.

TRACK MEN WILL TRY OUT.
Coach Hagerman Will Pick His Indoor Team Next Week.
"The sole ambition of our track team this spring is to defeat Missouri," said coach Hagerman when asked concerning the team. To this end everything possible has been done. Manager Lansdon has recognized the ability of the team by ordering running and jumping spikes for the men. A special train will carry the Kansas rooters to the Convention Hall meet on the afternoon of March 15.
The team of fifteen men will be picked from forty men who are trying out now. There will be four final tryouts for each man so that there will be no complaint of not getting a square deal. These tryouts will be begun Saturday and will be finished next week. Speaking of the men "Haig" said, "This is the first official entry list given out of the men who have a fighting chance to make good in the finals. They are the hope of Kansas."
The men for the different events are:
Fifty yard dash-Lobaugh, Babb, Finch, Newbold, Dennis, Driscoll, Porter.
Low hurdles—Campbell, McCoy, Driscoll, Lapham, Allendorf.
High hurdles—Lapham, Butter, Ise, Wenger.
Pole vault—Russel, Wall, Busch, Wenger, Butler, Coventry.
Shot put—Putnam, Campbell, Wood, Drake.
Quarter mile—Loper, Blackmar, Pringle, Caldwell, Young, Babb, Dennis, Gift, Haddock, Driscoll.

TRIP CUT SHORT.
Mandolin Club Cuts Off One Week of Tour.
The Mandolin Club has cancelled the dates for the first half of their trip which was to have begun March 1. The tour will begin March 8, and will include most of the Missouri dates. The trip was reduced on account of objections of the University authorities.
The Sophomores will play the Varsity basket ball team next Saturday evening in the gymnasium. The game will be for the championship of the University as the Sophs have defeated all the other class teams.
NUMBER 42
THE SOPHOMORE
SECOND YEAR MEN WILL ENTERTAIN SENIORS.
The Sophomore class will give a Prom this spring. That much was decided upon at a meeting of the class held in the chapel at noon yesterday. The date and place of holding the Prom have not yet been decided upon but it will probably be given in Fraternal Aid Hall.
All Schools of University to Participate.—Dates Have Not Been Selected.
It is not the intention of the class to make the affair a rival of the Junior Prom and it will be made as much different from that affair as possible.
The expenses of giving the party will probably be defrayed by a general assessment of the class members. The class expects to have nearly $100 in the treasury when the time comes and the assessment will be kept as low as possible. The sophomore class has given three parties this year and has three more to give, one of which had been scheduled for May 3.
The committees have not yet been named but will be announced this week. The social committee composed of Veatch, Rowlands, Walker, Duberry, Hausman, Johnson, Clay and Waters will have charge of the financial and invitation part of the Prom.
All the seniors in all the schools of the University will be included in the invitations, and the second year students in the Law, Pharmacy and Medical schools will be asked to participate as sophomores.
Farmer's Ball.
The junior party committee is having a hard time answering questions about the Farmer's Ball Friday evening. The idea that costumes are essential, and that they are not expected to be ragged and disreputable seem to require a great deal of explanation. The cow-boy and dairymaid style is expected in costumes and a gentleman's and a lady's prize will be given for the best costumes. The affair promises to be the most successful party the class has ever given. The music has been specially selected and will surely make a hit. Postively no spectators will be admitted, and tickets must be had of the committee or at the check stand before Friday evening. The grand march will start promptly at 8:30.
Mandolin Club at Ottawa.
The University Mandolin Club will give a concert at Ottawa Friday evening. The Jayhawker Quartette will go with the Club, and will sing on the program.
THE OLYMPIC GAMES.
First Annual Contests Held Last Saturday.
The Olympic Games held in Snow Hall Saturday evening proved a source of much amusement to a considerable crowd of men who cheered and jeered the participants profusely. The program was a varied one, tumbling of all kinds, Marathon races between the "short fats" and the "long leans," work on the horizontal bar, indian club swinging, juggling, fencing and boxing. The performance on the horizontal bar by Schotz from the City Y. M. C. A., the juggling by Root and the club swinging by Ockerblad, physical director at the City Association, were especially appreciated. The last was feat done with torch clubs and the room darkened and was a pleasing sight.
But the most exciting and amusing event of the evening was the three round bout between the East and West, between the never-defeated 215 pound lightweight champion of the West and the invincible Slugger from Missouri, between Dr. Naismith and Secretary Hagerman. All the appurtenances for a bloody prize fight were at hand and the boxing, rather the pretense at boxing, was exciting even if the seconds did do most of it.
Before the fight while the pugilists were preparing for their encounter, Prof. Hopkins made a short address explaining the reasons for the meeting. "The University Y. M. C. A. is at a crisis," he said, "and we desire to know the attitude of the students toward it. It has reached a point where to continue it must expand and this can be done only by the aid and countenance of the students. The faculty and townspeople will do their part but unless the students in general approve of the Associatiation and its work it cannot increase." He asked that each man name upon a card the amount he could contribute to the Y. M. C. A. R. L. Douglas and "Stub" Rowlands spoke to the same effect. The men seemed to respond generously to the invitation to aid the Y. M. C. A.
Bill Not Passed Today.
Up until two o'clock today the University appropriation bill had not come up for consideration in the lower house of the Legislature, as was expected. It is the opinion that the bill will be reported by the ways and means committee tomorrow.
E. N. Noyes, senior engineer, and Dean Marvin have been making some road tests for the Santa Fe in connection with a damage suit against that company.

With the next issue of the Kansan the newly elected officials will take complete charge of the paper. The retiring management has no apologies to make for the mistakes of the past year and no excuses to offer for the stale jokes foisted on the helpless readers when the printer was crying for copy and the copy hook was empty. The editor and the business manager have been sincere in their efforts to issue a paper that would not discredit the institution it represents and are willing to abide by the success or failure of their work. The year past has shown an increased support for the Kansan in the University, and a gradual growth of respect for the work it is trying to do. That in itself is all the retiring management could expect or ask by way of recognition.
With the election of the new officers the work-up system, as adopted by the subscribers of the Kansan two years ago, goes completely into effect. The men are all juniors in the University and have won their places solely on merit and hard work. Both Carl Young, the new editor, and Roy Roberts, the managing editor, are well known in the University and have been actively interested in newspaper work for some time. Mr. Young has had charge of athletic news during the present year, and has been managing editor since the resignation of Roy Moore in November. Mr. Roberts has been on the board for two years, and has been the University correspondent for the Kansas City Star and Times for two years.
--able. If the custom is carried on and developed as it was first inaugurated, and the party is made strictly formal, it will inevitably detract from the Junior Prom. as the big event of the year. The same guests are included in both, and if the same pretentions as to formality and general "swellness" are carried out, the Prom. is bound to suffer.
Before the Sophomore class decides definitely the nature of the Sophomore Prom. it would not be out of place to consider carefully the advisability of extending it in pretensiousness. There has been a feeling that the event would be more appropriate as a strictly informal affair, and for some reasons, the informality is very desirable. If the custom is carried on and developed as it was first inaugurated, and the party is made strictly formal, it will inevitably detract from the Junior Prom. as the big event of the year. The same guests are included in both, and if the same pretentions as to formality and general "swellness" are carried out, the Prom. is bound to suffer.
The first of the inter-collegiate debates will be the Kansas-Oklahoma contest on the question of Chinese exclusion. The debate will be held in the University chapel March 15. The Kansas men are working hard on the question and are going to give the Sooners a run for their money. Keep March 15 open and make the contest worth while. The season tickets are good for admission.

Professor Boodin Spoke at Vesper.
In spite of favorable weather and the fact that an excellent program was offered, the attendance at the Vesper Service last Sunday afternoon was unusually small. But those who stayed away missed hearing a very thoughtful and able address by Professor Boodin. His subject was "The Divinity of Christ." He discussed some of the views which have been taken in regard to the Saviour, even by his earliest biblical biographers, but in conclusion said that whatever theories may be, Christ is a practical factor in life and only those who follow His words really believe in His divinity.

A recent reprint of a paper written by a German, dealing with a cytological subject, gives the distribution of workers in that scientific field. Fourteen workers were cited, six Europeans and eight Americans. Of the eight Americans, four are Kansans who received their training in the laboratories of the University of Kansas: Professor C.E.McClung and Professor W.J.Baumgartner of the zoological department of the University,Mr.W.S.Sutton and Mr.M.W.Blackman. This means that half of the research in cytology being done in America is done in Kansas at the state university.

A HUNG JURY.
Law School Couldn't Convict Hamlet of Murder.
The trial of Hamlet for the murder of Polonius which has been in progress in the senior practice court of the Law school resulted in a hung jury this week. Montgomery and O'Brien were attorneys for the prosecution and Brown and Lomax for the defense. The defense rested its case on the insanity of Hamlet as evidenced by his actions after his unfortunate love affairs and his mother's marriage to his uncle. The jury of six stood five for acquittal and one for conviction. The case may be retried in a short time.
The Music Festival.
There has been a change in the plans for the Spring Music Festival at the University of Kansas owing to the fact that Madame Schumann-Heink has cancelled her Western engagements. Lawrence suffers equally with Chicago and Kansas City in this respect. The committee in charge however have provided an equally interesting event for the first night in a joint recital by Anton Hekking, the world famous violoncellist, and Charlotte Maconda the well known soprano who travelled last year as soloist with Thomas' Orchestra. On the second day the Chicago Symphony Orchestra will give two concerts, assisted in the afternoon by the four singers who travel with them, and in the evening by the Festival Chorus of 100 voices. Two cantatas will be rendered: "The Swan and the Skylark" by Goring Thomas, and the Stabat Mater" by Rossini. Professor Carl Preyer, head of the piano department will play Liszt's E flat piano concerto with the orchestra, and Miss Helen Phipps, head of the violin department, will play Bruch's violin concerto in G minor. The orchestra will also play an original overture by Dean Charles S. Skilton, director of the Festival. The date will be May 9 and 10.

"No lecture delivered before the Knife and Fork Club has ever been so cordially and enthusiastically received," was the report of the Kansas City Journal on the speech which will be delivered in chapel next Tuesday.
The Reverend A. A. Tanner, of Alton, Illinois, will give a thorough exposition of his subject from both sides. Mr. Tanner is well prepared to do this, having worked in a factory in Pueblo. In that time he climbed from the bottom of the ladder to the position of chief overseer, gaining in that way a view of the labor problem from a standpoint of both the employer and the employee. It is about his experiences in the factory that he will lecture on March 5th.

Inter-Fraternity Debate.
Tuesday, after having spent the morning on the "Hill," two A. O. U. W's. presumably citizens of Kansas and taxpayers were heard to remark, "Well, say, this a big affair. I wonder who supports it. Lawrence seems to be a kind of a little town to keep up all these buildings and things."
The drawing for positions on the Inter-Fraternity debate to be held on April 7, took place yesterday. The position and speakers will be as follows: Phi Delt, Arthur Seddon, Sigma Nu, Burton P. Sears; Phi Gam, Harry Campbell; Phi Psi, Charles Blackmar; Sigma Chi, J.W. Lapham; Beta Theta Pi, Walter Brown; Sig Alph, John B. Gage; Alpha Tau, Hal Lebrecht. The rules agreed upon allowed each speaker ten minutes for his first talk and five minutes rebuttal. Professor Frazier, under whose direction the debate will be given said, "all the fraternities have entered the contest this year for the Ewing Herbert cup, and as several of the speakers have made places on the interstate debates, the debate on April 7 should be a very interesting one. The subject to be used is the same as the Iowa question."

Dachs is better. The Allemania Club is once more at ease. When the little bow-legged, lop-eard, dachshund that has so long added an atmosphere of real Teutonic comfort to their club house, and shed his short hair over all their best clothes, contracted a slight cough a few weeks since, the Dutch Company were greatly worried. As the cough grew worse, and Dachs got "off his feed" even to the extent of refusing his daily allowance of kraut and spec, matters looked more serious than ever and a doctor was called in. The diagnosis was pneumonia, an aggravated case, owing to the great elongation of Dach's pulmonary regions. Medicine was prescribed. Dachs was gently but firmly swaddled in mustard plasters and put to bed, and the members of the club took turns at keeping him there. As the plasters began to work in, the poor animal rolled its eyes, kicked its short legs and groaned in a way which seemed to beg only for the privilege of dying in peace. His nurses assured him that they were suffering more than he and lulled him to sleep with the strains of "Oh where, oh where has my little doggie gone." To this careful treatment the fever at last yielded and Dachs is now able to get out on sunshiny days.
