SPOKE TO JOURNALISTS.
Miss Florence Welch Told of Society Reporting.
Miss Florence Welch, society editor of the Topeka Daily Capital, spoke to the Journalism classes, Friday morning. Her subject dealt with the duties of a society reporter, together with the obstacles necessary to be overcome in making the work a success.
"If you don't intend to follow newspaper work permanently," said Miss Welch, "don't enter it. When once you get the newspaper germ, its hard to be rid of it. The work is fascinating and it is almost impossible to leave it.
Miss Welch told of many of her experiences in the newspaper business. She believes that every one receives setbacks when first entering the business but that integrity will win. As advice to new reporters, she said: "Do not allow yourself to think of your personal feelings, for you will have them hurt if you do. Try to think yourself a part of the newspaper and learn to take people as they are."
FREDERICK WARD IN CHAPEL.
Noted Shakespearean Actor Spoke to Students.
Frederick Ward, for thirty-eight years a Shaksperean actor, and the greatest exponent of Shakespeare at the present time, spoke in chapel Friday morning. He has been lecturing for the last four years, and was secured for the city lecture course for Thursday evening.
Mr. Ward's remarks yesterday morning were confined to the debt students owe for their education, and how they can best pay this debt. They can do this best, he says, by taking an active part in the political life of the country. The student's great aim should be, then, to prepare himself to express what he desires to say forcibly and with emphasis.
Mr. Ward took paraphrases from Shakespeare to show the shallowness of affectation in speech. For a model of oratory he again went to Shakespeare, rendering Brutus's address to the Roman Populace, and Portia's appeal before the Duke of Venice. He said the secret of oratory is simplicity of words and the use of brief, convincing sentences.
Prof. W. C. Hoad and Prof. F. H. Billings were in Atchison last Thursday to make bacteriological tests of the water preparatory to the installation of a new water system in that city. The water in use at present has been unsatisfactory and the Atchison council is seeking to force the water company to put in new equipment and improve the water supply.

PICTURE EXHIBITION A WEEK LONGER.
The manager of the picture exhibit has decided to retain the paintings for Lawrence one week longer than the original date for their departure. Instead of closing today, the exhibit will be open until March 6.
So far the exhibition has not paid expenses. Early in the month, bad weather kept the art lovers at home, and only in the past week have the crowds been what they should be. Professor Griffith decided to hold the collection one week longer because many people had been unable to visit the exhibit as many times as they wished. Next week the collection will be open to the public every day and every evening until 10 o'clock.
The students have not been attending the picture show as they should. The majority of the attendants come from the down town people.
PENSION BILL IN NEBRASKA.
Not Likely that Measure Will Be Sanctioned.
The Nebraska legislature is now discussing the advisability of allowing professors in the state institutions to enjoy the benefits of the Carnegie pension. The committee in the house which considered the measure was adverse to extending the privileges to state teachers lest they should lose their independence. Mr. Bryan was largely responsible for this attitude of the committee.
The bill was not killed in committee, however, and was given to the house for discussion. It is generally believed that the legislature will kill the measure.
Verein Meeting Monday.
A very important business meeting of the German Verein will be held Monday, March 1. Every member should be present.

Mark Catlin, football coach of the University of Iowa, has resigned and will take up the practice of law.
One of the greatest menaces to scholastic standards at Cambridge, according to the view of the Harvard authorities, has been the number of intercollegiate contests. In the plan of reform it was first proposed to wipe out all sports from the close of the football season to the spring recess. This was not carried out but a material reduction in the schedules of the various teams was made. The basketball schedule has been cut in half.
The feature of the Chicago A. A. track meet in Bartlett gymnasium, Chicago University, was the breaking of the world's indoor pole vault record by Claire S. Jacobs with a vault of 12 feet 3 inches.

Mr.Kaufman is on the pitching staff of the Louisville team in the American Association and he intends to stay here a few days for a workout in the "gym."

Developing the "Champeens."
Unusual interest is being shown this year in wrestling, and daily the local mat artists are trying their skill in the padded room in the "gym." Within a few weeks a wrestling bout will be staged between the freshmen and the sophomores. This contest is sure to bring out many who are adept at the "Nelson bar lock" and are doped to be the successors to Champion Gotch and "Farmer' Burns.
