A. D. WEAVER. STRONG BEFORE COMMITTEE. Optimistic Concerning the Outcome of Budget Bill. Chancellor Strong and Secretary E. E. Brown went to Topeka yesterday to confer with the legislature regarding the University budget for the next biennium. Last night they held a session with the joint sub-committees of the senate and house which had been appointed for the purpose of considering the University's needs. The entire budget was gone over and considered, one item at a time. It is impossible, of course, to tell what the fate of the budget will be, but the Chancellor and Mr. Brown are optimistic as to the outcome. The legislature is favorably disposed toward the University, and the members are opposed to any policy that will interfere with its growth. Thespians Preparing For New Play The Thespian Club held a meeting Thursday evening. Maurice Allendorfer resigned as manager, and Keith Clevenger was elected to manage the spring play.

"If you do not expect to control a newspaper, I advise you to get out of the business." This was Barney Sheridan's advice to the newspaper classes yesterday morning. "Every conscientious journalist," he continued, "expects someday to run a newspaper." His subject dealt mostly with the building up and running of a country paper, and he told many of his own experiences in that work. "The first duty of the editor of any paper is to make it pay," said Mr. Sheridan. "If a paper is not self-supporting—nay, more—if it's not making money, there is very little good it can do a community. "Have your office on the ground floor, well lighted and the door open, so the school children may run in and get acquainted. Instill in their hearts a good will toward your paper and it is wonderful how quickly a neighborhood of friends will be dwelling about your field of activity." Mr. Sheridan has not been active editor of the The Western Spirit for three years.His son, a graduate of the University,has charge of the paper. Board and Rooms. Board and rooms at 1605 Tenn.
