'99.A TALE OF TWO FROGS.There is a beauteous grace which sits enthronedIn the world's heart, and reigns a crownedqueen.Her gentle scepter reaching over men,Doth touch and bind in one all hearts whichbeatThroughout the circle of the world. Her wordDoth gather all the grating sounds of earthAnd like a magic harp, doth give them backIn harmony.The child of love and pain she is, for onceThe Heavenly Father bending low in love,The thorn of human woe did touch his heartAnd from the; gracious drops that flowed, theresprangSweet sympathy.Aye, like the unseen hand which clasps thelight,Of earth's broad sky, in all its varied huesAnd pours it forth in one warm, golden stream,In sympathy doth compass every life,And takes unto herself, its bright and darkAnd weaves them into one soft light of hopePerpetually.She touches joy and 10, she doubles it,The touches sorrow and it shrinks away,She blunts th' avenging sword, and lifts theslaveFrom out his narrow bonds to larger lifeAnd destiny.The chiefest star that decks the crown of loveThe gentlest note that floats on mortal ear,Through her, one throbbing heart doth movethe world,The monarch and the humblest child are kinThrough sympathy. Two frogs on a morning were quietly sleepingWhen, hard by the creeks where the two hadbeen keeping,A ru il kma.i came driving and stopped there aminute,And drew up some water with both the frogsin it,And ere they could waken or set up a croakingIn .. fresh morning milk" they were soakingand choking." Oogh! Oogh" said one froggie, " how greasyand sourI know I shall die here in less than an hour!I bid you farewell fellow-froggie !" he criedThen dived to the bottom and gave up anddied." To be sure," said the other, .. 'tis awfully wet,But still to my thinking I'm far from dead yet,"And so he kept paddling with might andpersistenceUntil by his efforts he saved his existenceFor, half an hour later the journey completed,On a neat cake of butter the froggie wasseated.The moral is plain,-if you run you may read itAnd fortune will follow if only you'll heed it.When dangers and doubtings your wits arebeaddlingYou'll come out on top if you'll keep on apaddling.Ye divil once, he met a manWho chanced to be a reg'lar bore,And as ye divil worked his planTo tempt him, he displayed his lore,With more sublime persistence thanA hungry flea or itching sore,'Till in disgust ye divil ranAnd to himself he muchly sworeAnd vowed as only divils can,That all his art could do no moreThan had been done for such a man.164 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE SETTLEMENT.Thursday evening, January zoth, the Univer­sity Settlement celebrated its fifth birthday inthe hall at 4634 Ashland avenue. The ISO,guests were full of good wishes for the Settle­ment, as was shown by the applause and gen­eral gay social air.The programme was opened by the wholecompany singing "America," led by MissHofer and the Orpheus Chorus. Then nationalairs of other lands were sung. Miss McDowellspoke for a few minutes, giving the history ofthe Settlement and the reason for its existence.She said, " that simply because the Settlementwas not a church or a mission, or such an in­stitution familar to people, there had beenmuch speculation as to what it was for; andnow, after five years people find it is simply aneighborhood center, a club-house where allpeople are welcome, rich and poor, Catholicand Protestant, Jew and Gentile, all alike. Theobject of this common meeting-place, is toestablish a rally point for a higher civic life­a place where the ideal of brotherhood is insome s'ense realized. Most people Miss McDowell said further, are content to live anddie in the narrow circle into which they wereborn. A German will know only Germans, anIrishman will affiliate only with the Irish, andperhaps as in my own case, a Scotch-Irish­American woman, will live and die in the circleof her own church or community and nevertouch the larger circle of humanity-that greatfamily of God that knows no classes or dis­tinctions of creed, color or nationality." Miss Myra Reynolds of the University ofChicago, followed Miss McDowell, giving asincere and hearty birthday greeting. MissReynolds told of her experience in starting thefirst club on Gross avenue, and she said thather life before this time had been that of aselfish student, caring only for what she couldget out of books. But since she had resolvedto share with the people outside of the class­room those riches that belonged to the wholethinking world and not to the few, she hadbeen able to see poetry, literature, music andart in a new Iight.The mandolin orchestra, led by Mr. AlfredBroman gave some delighttul selections. ThenMrs. Laura Dainty-Pelham kept the audiencein constant laughter until she closed her re­pertoire.The neighbors took seriously the little jokethat the Settlement was celebrating its woodenwedding, and all the afternoon chairs of differ­ent styles and sizes kept arriving. Some werepersonal gifts, but others came from clubs andgroups of friends. The greatest surprise waswhen a dozen beautiful chairs- arrived witha dainty card tied on with the symbol ofAmerican patriotism. On the card was written,"from the employees of Lederer and Open­heirners store, wishing the Settlement successin all its undertakings." The Bohemian Wo­man's Club presented a beautiful rocking chairand several guests brought modern kitchenutensils.NOTE BOOK.The Dramatic Club is rehearsing the comedyof David Garrick, which they hope to prese nton the evening of March 3.Among the University people who went toMilwaukee to see the meet on Saturday nightwere Messrs. Wiles, Steigmeyer, Sincere, Bell,Johnson, Vernon, Richberg, Young and Losey.Professor Tufts, the new Dean of the SeniorCollege, addressed chapel Thursday, on thesubject, " Values, from the Standpoint of the Student." Dr. Harper, sufficiently recoveredfrom an attack of the grippe, spoke to Seniordivisions I-VI on Wednesday.Anriual Concert.- Tickets for the AnnualGlee Club Concert will be put on sale, to clubsand other organizations, Friday, Feb. 3, at theWEEKLY office, basement of Cobb Hall. Thegeneral sale will commence February 6. Theclubs will rehearse daily from now on, and arealready in fine shape to give the best concertin the history of the organizations. . ...· ... t..JNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.The Senior College Council petitioned thefaculty last week to extend the term of officeof the councillors to one year. This changewould give more continuity to the council, andthus enable it to accomplish more . At presentthe quarterly changes In that body prevent toa great degree continuous work. This newplan would also make the office more honoredand more desirable.First places in the division contests in decla­mation were awarded as follows:Division I. Miss M. K. Lincoln.II. Miss Alma Yondorf.III. O. S. McCaskill.IV. M. R. Myers.V. C. J. Williamson."These will compete for the Ferdinand Peckprize of $50 at Kent theatre on Friday, Febru­ary ro. The winner in each division was ac­corded a scholarship, except in Divisions IIIand V, where those gainillg first place had al­ready won tuition. The scholarships in thesecases were granted to Miss Claribelle Goodwinand Miss Florence Strauss.The Cap and Gown.-The editors of the Capand GOW7l for this year are extremely dissatis­fied with the lack of enthusiasm on the part ofthe students. There are absolutely no volun­tary contributions. It seems that the studentsare afraid to hand in any work because theythink it is not good enough. Certainly thisaction is childish, and we hope that from nowon the editors will receive contributions of everykind. It is also well that those students, whocannot add to these contributions, ought atleast to subscribe for the book. This is theduty of every college man or coed.Cornell and Harvard.-lt seems very doubt­ful whether or not Cornell will meet Harvardand Yale in a crew race this year. Cornell hasan agreement with Pennsylvania and Columbiaby which she must meet them at Poughkeepsie.The race between Harvard and Yale to whichCornell is to be invited is to be rowed over theNew London course. Cornell states that shecannot meet Harvard and Yale at New Londonon account of the race at Poughkeepsie a fewdays later. The only way to get around thedifficulty is that Harvard and Yale change theplace of the meet to Poughkeepsie, with whicharrangement Cornell would be satisfied. This, however, Harvard and Yale will not do, as it istheir fixed intention of meeting at New LondonIn all probability the rowing championship forthis year will remain undecided.Columbia Debate.-Chicago will meet Col­umbia University of New York city in debatein the latter part of April. The OratoricalAssociation has submitted to Columbia thequestion: "Resol7'ed, That the United States isjustified in assuming sovereignty over thePhillipines." The University has appropriatedsufficient funds to justify elaborate preparations,and unless present indications are deceivingthe contest will be given most enthusiastic sup­port by both students and faculty.Our team, which last year met Columbia'srepresentatives was an honor to the University.The approaching preliminaries are open to stu­dents in every department.The Campus Paths.-The Junior CollegeCouncil has sent in a petition in regard to thewretched condition of the paths about thecampus. It asks that they be fixed up at onceIt is to be hoped that this petition will be moresuccessful than those of the past. If the cin­ders that have been recently put in the road­ways had been spread on the paths, they wouldhave at least raised the paths out of the mudand water which makes them nearly impassableat times. The excuse of lack of funds seemshardly adequate for this long continued negli­gence. But perhaps a few dollars out of thenext million-dollar gift can be applied for thisreally humane purpose.Madame A. D. Raszell, assisted by her class,gave a recital at her home, corner Sixtieth St.and Washington avenue, on last Friday evening.Many parents and friends' had accepted theinvitation to be present to note the progress ofthe pupils. The parents have reason to con­gratulate themselves on securing such an ableand efficient teacher for their children. Mr.Bryan, a student from the University, alsofavored the guests with several selections. Hisimitation of the phonograph was perfect, even tothe whirring noise which precedes the articula­tion of words-, The evening was a most enjoy­able one.Former Manager Cuppy, of the UniversityPress, has purchased a controlling interest inPublic Opinion, New York. 165$ .752.50 Gallagher and Fredericks. Although they didnot return victorious yet the struggle was soclose as to reflect nothing but honor on theUniversity of Chicago. This time let us win bya good margin. What are the incentives foradditional endeavor in this debate? It is ourtime to win. It is the most important contestof the year. Vve are fighting on home grounds.We have the opportunity to secure a high repu­tation among Eastern colleges as debaters,where Columbia is highly regarded. Moreover,the Oratorical Association is laying plans for acontest which will surpass anything of the kindever held in Chicago. Studebaker Hall will beengaged, and many other features will be 111-tro duced to insure a memorable occasion. Thequestion, "Resolved, That the United States isnot justified in assuming sovereignty over thePhillipines," is the one live question of thehour, and which ever side we take we will beaided by plenty of arguments and plenty ofpopular support .Never, since inauguration ofChapel. compulsory chapel service untilthe present quarter, have the stu­dents shown any interest in the exercises Atfirst there was a feeling of rebellion, on thepart of some, against the infringement of whatthey considered the right of free exercise ofreligious beliefs. Then, after several quartersof this new regime, the students became ac­customed or rather hardened to the experience.The palid, lukewarm singing of the choir, andthe general negativeness of the whole serviceoperated to this effect. Noone went to chapelbecause he needed the exercise; it was simplya habit. Only on rare occasions, when someprominent person was scheduled to addressthe students, did they come out of pure voli­tion. The custom of going to chapel is wellestablished by this time, but the present quartersince prominent professors in the Universityhave been selected to address the students, theundergraduates are commencing to go becausethey so desire. They have an opportunity of166 UNIVERSITY OF CIDCAGO - WEEKLY.�be "Ulni"erait\? of (tbicago 'Umeekl\?EDITORIAL BOARD.WTLLIAM BURGESS CORNELL, '9'), - Ma nag mg EditorW ALTER JOSEPH SCHMAHL, '00. - - - Associate EditorASSISTANT EOITOHS.VAN SUMNER PEARCE, '99.JOSEPHINE ALLIN, '99.THOMAS C.

The recent addresses given at thevesper service by Dr. Boyd and Prof. Steven­son, have attracted a larger number of youngmen than usual; and the punctuality withwhich this service is begun and closed, onlyadds to its charm and effectiveness. The verybest speakers that can be found are being en­gaged for the rest of the quarter, and thosewho attend the meetings will be well repaid.The men continue to attend the mid-weekprayer-meetings with unabated zeal. Those wholistened to the earnest words of State SecretaryJ. E. Brown last Wednesday were deeplymoved and encouraged to persevere on a highplane of living. Be sure to get a topic-cardand observe how carefully the prayer-meetingcommittee has prepared for the rest of thequarter's work.There were seventy-five at the gathering lastSunday evening when Prof. Burton spoke on"Testimony;" and when he had opened themeeting, unusual eagerness was manifested bythose who sought to speak.
