Those who have been anxious to know the age of the boyish young Romance Language professor will be able to calculate it from the story in the Michigan Daily.
The Baker-Kansas debate will be held at Baldwin next Friday evening. Kansas should send three hundred supporters down and show some of her genuine spirit. A special train will be run if two hundred tickets are sold.
Several more of the fraternities have already withdrawn the members from the T. N. E. within the last few days. The regular Greek letter fraternities realize that in order to maintain their standing and dignity the time has come when they can no longer even by their silence sanction the deportment of the T. N. E.
To a person who heard the speech in chapel yesterday morning, it would seem that Chancellor Strong had given Mr. Schoonover a private talk a few minutes before chapel time for he certainly voiced the sentiments of the Chancellor. Mr. Schoonover's address deserves far more commendation than the average weekly speaker. He is an orator and exercised better control over the audience than any other speaker we have had this year.
The work of the Dramatic Club in The Crisis received commendation from every witness at the two evenings' performances. The interpretation of the parts and acting of the performers could be favorably compared with many professionals whose fame is heralded throughout the country. The principal parts were all well handled. Arthur Riddle as Mr. Hopper furnished the greatest amusement of any of the actors and showed himself to be far above the ordinary amateur.
Nebraska lost at the hands of the legislature a few days ago a dreamed of new engineering building and the Aggie school was remembered with a handsome sum of $150,000 for new structures. In commenting The Nebraskan said:
"It is a plain case of partiality, that is all. The Legislature is composed largely of farmers, men who leave "Jim" and "Tim" at home to "shuck" out the corn while they occupy the leather-seated chairs about the capitol on a five-dollar-a-day job making laws about education! It is to be hoped that as many as possible of their successors to-be will get to the Farm."
The Nebraskan must not forget that two years hence may find some of these same old boys occupying the leather cushioned seats.

We are going to say a word or two, however, about Spring wearables.
Yes, we know there's a law against it and we're not going to say a word about "Gentle Spring."
Pay $12.50, $15.00, $18.00 or $20.00 and you'll be well dressed and feel fine.
For that tired-of-winter feeling we offer you one of our handsome Spring Suits.
They are prizes—every one of them.
Then, there's our new Spring Hats and our smart Toggerybut that's another story.
The Suits are the best the best makers could do.
