SMOKER TO BE HELD ON MARCH 25TH
AT CLASS MEETING YESTERDAY SENIORS MADE PLANS.
Enthusiasm Shown for Reunion in 1916—Cap and Gown Committee Reports.
Much interest in the reunion of this year's senior class in 1916 was manifested at the class meeting held yesterday after chapel. Robert Johnston, chairman of the social committee, explained the plans of the class and announced that there would be a smoker for all of the men of the senior class on Saturday evening, March 25, in Ecke's hall. Several of the stunts that were given at the Pan-Hellenic some time ago will be repeated and the committee is working on some envel stunts to be pulled off on that evening. The idea of the whole movement is to get the seniors interested in the work and as soon as the girls get organized it is the plan to have a series of entertainments at which enthusiasm will be worked up. The price of admission for the men's smoker will be twenty-five cents, which is just enough to cover the actual expenses for the entertainment.
William Hughes, chairman of the cap and gown committee, announced that arrangements had been made for the caps and gowns for either four or ten days and it is desired that all those who desire caps and gowns will leave a notice in the Jayhawker box at the check stand at once.
The invitation committee has decided to have both leather back and paper back invitations the former to cost three dollars and the latter two dollars per dozen. Members of the committee will be at the check stand for the next two weeks to take all orders and it is desired that all seniors attend to this matter at once as the list must be sent to the printers soon.
BUCKING THE SUGAR TRUST
A Vermonter Exchanges Maple Sugar for Education.
The failures of others have not discouraged Bradley A. Thomas, a junior in the School of Law, from Morrisville Vermont.
There are a great variety of ways for a student to work his way through the University, but there are many who lack the grit to compete with a corporation like the sugar trust.
He has been soliciting orders for maple sugar at the various fraternity and boarding houses in this city. He takes orders and then supplies his trade from his home town, which is situated in the heart of the maple sugar district of Vermont.
Mr. Thomas believes that he can establish a good maple sugar business here and help pay his expenses without a great loss of time.
Junior Class Notice.
A meeting of the junior class has been called by President Arch McKinnon for next Monday at noon in chapel. At the meeting the report of the junior committee on the prom will be received and voted upon.
Dr. Naismith, professor of physical education, will speak in chapel Tuesday morning. His subject will be "Professionalism in Athletics," and will tell of the reasons for it and the effects.
Yes, it is more than a month until Easter. But do you remember how the Glove and Neckwear stocks are always depleted several days before. Then why not buy early this year and get just what you want in color, shape and size? These stocks are now complete with the Easter "fixin's." A complete showing of all that is new.

Freshman Pan-Hellenic.
The annual Freshman Pan-Hellenic舞 was given in Fraternal Aid hall last night. As Uncle Jimmie Green was late, the grand march was led by A. W. Hosier and Myra Rogers, and George Edwards and Adrienne Atkinson. William Cain and Harriet Merriam, and James Leidigh and Helen Thompson gave out the programs. The programs, which were printed in green, contained the names of the officers and members of the Freshman Pan-Hellenic Council.
Nearly all the girls present were freshmen, making the dance strictly a freshman event. The twenty dances and two extras were run off by Hall's five-piece orchestra of Topeka by 2 o'clock. It was a noticeable feature that the dancers started when the music began. There was no time lost in waiting for someone to "start it."
The refreshments were served in three shifts. Sandwiches, coffee, salad, ice cream and cake composed the meal.
