TO WORK IN EAST BOTTOMS
SETTLEMENT IDEA TO START NEXT TUESDAY.
Students in Department of Exp expression Will Teach Little Urchins.
The department of expression at the University will start a social settlement movement in the East bottoms next Tuesday. There at 1022 New York street, a small cottage has been furnished and in the rooms have been hung pictures and pennants. Cozy chair and window seats have also been placed in the rooms and picture books, story books and other forms of child literature have been supplied. And in that house on every Tuesday, the girls of the department of expression will gather with the little urchins of the district and carry on a form of settlement work.
The movement is at present under the supervision of Miss Veda Walker, of the department of expression. It is the idea of those conducting the work to tell mythological and Bible stories and classical and fairy tales to the little urchins who go to the house each week. After the children are told the stories they are required to retell them and are thus taughs the stories of moral uplift almost unconsciously.
While the work at present does not include such a wide scope, it is the plan of the department or the University to extend the idea as soon as it is practicable to do so. Next fall a number of working girls' clubs will be organized and courses in physical culture will be added.
The students are most active in the work are Miss Cornelia Hard castle, Miss Hazel Browning, Miss Lucile Barrett and Miss Chloe Cory.

New Use for Organ Pipes.
When Professor Hubach came to Fraser hall about 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon to practice the vesper music he found that the pipe organ was not working properly. After turning a lever the organ was no longer on a strike, but a volume of smoke poured from the top of the pipes. Electrician Smith was called, but he found no reason why the organ should not continue its good behavior in the future.

FRESHMAN SQUAD RETURNS
Had Hard
Luck With Majority of Games.
The freshman basket-ball squad consisting of Woodbury, Bray field, Gribble, Snyder, Harold Wheelock and Hite, accompanied by Manager Lansdon, returned Sunday from their tour of the state, not in the prime condition in which they started out. The trip was an unusually hard one, a game being played every night. The contest with the Chilocco Indians, in which the latter displayed the typical Indian spirit was particularly rough. Because of poor courts, unofficial baskets and other unexpected obstacles, the freshmen were not as successful as they might have been otherwise, against the teams which they had beaten on their own court. However, they were victorious in the game with Halstead high school, which resulted in a score of 22 to 26. The scores of all the other games are as follows:
Clay Center High School 25 freshmen 21.
Chiloico Indians, 30, freshmen 9.
Newton High School 33, fresh men 25.
Halstead High School 22, fresh men 26.
Reno County High School 50 freshmen, 26.
Total K. U. points, 107.
Total for opponents, 160.

ANOTHER FRATERNITY
Biological
There is now an honorary fraternity in almost every department of the University and it would seem that there was room for no more such organizations. But the biological students have also recently formed one and they will petition the national Biological fraternity, Beta Sigma Phi soon.
Science Society Is Formed.
Albert Le Moine, the president of the sophomore class, is at the head of the movement. The fraternity will be purely honorary and only those who are recommended by the faculty will be admitted to membership. The members intend to do research work in biological sciences, and may give a scholarship in the department to commemorate their founding.
It is understod that the charter for the new society will be granted soon and the installation will take place before the end of this semester.
SAVES MONEY FOR STATE.
School of Pharmacy Doing Much Analytical Work.
"During the past year," said Dean L. E. Sayre of the School of Pharmacy, "the University has made over 1,000 analyses of foods and drugs, besides examining water and making many bacteriological tests for the state. Commercial chemists would have charged from $10 to $25 for each analysis, and I figure that the state would have had to pay at least $50,000 if the analyses had been left to private individuals."
Dean Sayre is an advocate of pure food laws, and he has done so much for their enforcement that he was recently appointed head of a committee of the American Pharmaceutical association to devise means of extending and unifying drug reform. He is working on the problem at present and is formulating several plans. One will be to ask congress to pass laws requiring a more thorough and uniform inspection of drugs. He will suggest a large part of the Kansas system for the other states, since it is recognized by the leading pharmacists as the best in the country.

ENTERED "INSTITUTE."
Harvard Neophytes Put on Street Stunts.
Each recurring year one hundred students of "Fair Harvard," for the greater part members of the athletic element of the sophomore class, are initiated into the mysteries of "The Institute," says the Boston Traveler. Previous to this final ceremony these students are at the beek, and call of the older members of the society and are forced to don old clothes and to do any old errand that may be demanded.
Thursday a class of five initiates, the first to be put through the sprouts sine the Yale-Harvard game, occupied the center of the stage at Harvard Square and entertained a large and appreciative audience for a considerable period. It was a free show, but that did not detract from its merit, and the neophytes performed their various parts with the practiced abandon of accomplished artists.
One neophyte had evidently been an understudy in the star role in "Ten Nights in a Barroom," for his specialty was to imitate a disciple of Bacchus and to reel about the streets plaintively crying: "Drink is a curse. Oh, for one long curse!" Another, representing Napoleon, delivered a talk on his conquests, much to the deletation of his audience; while still another, attired as a ballet girl, gave a splendid terpsichorean performance, interspersed with the rendition in a high pitched voice of the beautiful classic, "Has Anybody Here Seen Kelly?"
H. F. Smith, '85 of Wellington, Kan., visited in Lawrence Saturday.
The exhibition proved highly elevating and inspiring to the gathering and there was none present who was not willing to concede that each neophyte had paid his full entrance fee to the "Institute" and should be accepted as a full fledged member without question.
