In giving the apples to the students Chancellor Strong certainly handed the faculty a lemon.
Maybe the basket ball team is fixing to spring a surprise on the Tigers Monday and Tuesday nights.
Judging from Mr. Coburn's address in chapel, he does not agree with the Hon. Senator Tillman, as he said: "You cannot do business with a pitchfork.".
Wonder if the selection of "The Crisis" by the Dramatic Club for its next play had anything to do with the crisis which placed Mrs. Georgia Brown in as director instead of Professor E.G. Frazier.
A professor in the Romance language department hit the nail on the head when he said just after a quiz the other day: "I don't think it is such a great crime 'to pony' a little in a quiz but when the students hand in their 'ponies' it's going too far."
It seems altogether fitting and proper at this time "to invite the attention" of Mr. Coburn to the fact that our Chancellor does not spend his time picking stamps off unused letters. He has been busy picking bigger things from the vicinity of Topeka.
The address by Hon. F. D. Coburn in chapel yesterday was far from the spread-eagle kind of oratory that appeals to a large student body, but from a practical point of view the speaker laid down some principles that are absolutely essential to a successful career. Mr. Coburn was not a college man, on the other hand his knowledge came through the hard knocks of the school of experience. He does more letter writing probably than any other man in the state and his timely warning to the students should be given careful consideration.
The Chicago University students held a mass meeting in chapel this week for the purpose
of stirring up enthusiasm for the coming debates. Kansas would do well to follow the example. The first University debate is on March 22, with Oklahoma. Kansas has a good team that has been working hard and it is certainly entitled to the best support that the students can give. Last year the students showed a commendable spirit towards the University debate. This year let us put more enthusiasm than ever in the debates for a debater is helped by enthusiasm as much as an athlete.
Teachers Meet April 19.
At the conference of superintendents and principals of accredited schools to be held here April 19 and 20, the main subject for discussion will be the biological sciences. According to a decision made at last year's meeting the instructors in Greek and Latin will also hold a classical meeting. Professor F. W. Shipley of Washington University and Professor Markham of Baker will give addresses. The conference will be for principals and superintendents of accredited schools of Kansas and Western Missouri.
