In electing Chancellor Strong president of the State Teachers' association for the coming year the teachers of Kansas have paid a fine compliment to the University and its chief executive, and at the same time increased the prestige of their association and insured its being run in a way profitable to the members and to the state for the next year. The influence of the University upon the other schools of the state is growing stronger all the time, and it is a beneficial influence. The standard of the teaching done is constantly being raised as more and more well-equipped University alumni go out to teach.

TWO CHAPEL SPEAKERS.
Students Listened to a Satirist and a Conservative.
Prof. E. A. Ross of the University of Wisconsin spoke in chapel Friday morning in regard to the influence that time honored customs have upon people. With the story of the Hudson Bay country building a dam in a London busi-beaver which still insisted on ness office, he illustrated the mistake of not recognizing the changed conditions.
President W. O. Thompson of the Ohio State University gave a vigorous exposition of his ideas of the atmosphere of college life. He congratulated the Western universities upon their freedom from danger of intellectual disintegration, which seemed to threaten some eastern schools. He urged that students should expect to be larger and better in themselves than the best thing which they could do. President Thompson also clearly pointed the value of the college for making a man well acquainted with his fellows and their ability.
