Some of the delicate spring suits that have been kept close to the furnace for the last few weeks will begin to appear again now.
The work of the track men Saturday showed a great improvement over last year, in the long distances especially. The half-mile, mile and two mile were each awarded a new record.
The financial committee of the Prom wants it distinctly understood that the postponement of the party does not mean that the payment of the $3.50 assessment should be put off another week.
The Washburn-Kansas debate to be held in Fraser Hall Saturday evening will conclude the series of inter-collegiate debates for the year. Washburn will send an especially strong team down and Kansas will line up a trio of invincibles too, so a large crowd should be present to support our side in the battle.
The annual inter-fraternity debate held Saturday evening for the Ewing Herbert loving cup was represented by a larger number of fraternities than ever before. Much enthusiasm was present and the interest taken was significant that the scholarly development is receiving consideration in equal proportion to other activities of the fraternity life.
With only five more weeks of school before us, it is high time the arrangements were being made for the student day chapel exercises. Such a day was inaugurated last year and met with much success. The opportunity was afforded for the students to present publicly a few of their ideas upon certain subjects which were of much concern to the University. We have a number of speakers within the student body that could fill the place of the Friday morning orator with credit. We want another students day.
If the Conneticutt legislature will prohibit the sale of the "Makins" as the Illinois law making body did and the supreme court let down the bars on the handling of the "drinkins' as the Kansas judicial body has, the student expenses at Yale would be much reduced.
"The Simple Life Club," organized through the instance of Charles Wagner when on a recent visit to America, has chapters at Cornell, Syracuse, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Yale, Brown and Harvard. Some one has suggested that the late T. N. E. boys install a chapter at Kansas.
The art exhibit, which closed last Saturday, while not appreciated as much by the students and faculty as it should have been, was on the whole a success. It gave those whose taste leans toward the artistic side of life a rare opportunity to see and study some of the greatest paintings of America. Such treats belong to the part of a liberal education outside of the regular courses of study and are essential for the enjoyment of life in the broadest sense. The Fine Arts department is to be congratulated upon their efforts and upon the success attained by this exhibit.
Lawrence Cooper a senior in the college leaves May 3rd for the Philippine Islands,where he will engage in teaching. Rey O. Douglas, president of the senior class has announced the appointment of Herman Pfeiffer to succeed Mr.Cooper as chairman of the Class Day committee.

THE ART EXHIBIT A SUCCESS.
Final Exhibition Saturday Attracted Large Crowd.
The art exhibit closed Saturday evening. Nearly 300 people saw the pictures Friday. This was the largest attendance during the time the collection was here. The increase was due to the Bible Conference and High School Teachers Meeting here last week.
The exhibit was a success as far as the paintings are concerned. The pictures were all good and were appreciated by those who saw them. Many interesting and instructive talks on various phases of art were given from time to time by University professors. The students and faculty did not turn out in as large numbers as was hoped. The town people however ably supported the collection during its entire stay. L.H.Perkins bought the only pictures sold here. They are, Bolton Jones' "The Brook," and Miss Hore's work "The Daffodils."
The youngsters who saw the pictures were best pleased with the Cow and Calf, and in their estimation it ranked first. The Flower Garden attracted the women as much as anything. Several girls of the Art school made a critical study of some of the paintings.
The exhibit was taken from here to the University of Nebraska.
