The annual concert, instead of beingthe closing climax of the season, is now reallythe opening number. The customary Christmastrip was postponed to give greater effect to thetour through the South which will be takenduring the spring recess.Thus far this year the history of the club hasbeen a hard-luck tale, andwhatever success thatcomes out of the season'swork cannot redound toohighly to the praises ofthe fellows who have prac­ticed long and faithfully.and who have perseveredin spite of discouragingcircumstances.

Altogetherthe sixth annual concert bids fair to be a grandsuccess, and no one can afford to miss it.PER.SONNEL OP THE CLUBS.Glee Club.C. S.

The organiza­tions which have taken sections of seats thusfar are the following: Fraternities----D. K. E.,Beta Theta Pi, Phi Kappa Psi, Alpha DeltaPhi, Psi Upsilon, Chi Psi, Phi Delta Theta,Delta Tau Delta and Sigma Chi; Houses---­Green, Beecher 'and Kelly; Clubs- --Sigmaclub, the Mortar-Board, Quadranglers and Eso­teric, the Quadrangle club and Chicago Alum­ni club.The Weekly Board picture was taken lastFriday by Lawson.Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Governor of NewYork, will address the Junior College Assemblyon Monday, April loth.The first preliminaries in the ColumbiaDebate were held Friday evening in Cobb Lec­ture Hall. As usual the attendance was small.The Dramatic Club has given up the ideaof producing" David Garrick." The reasonassigned for this is the large number of socialevents already OIl the calendar for March, be­sides the lack of the time at the disposal of theindividual members of the cast which wouldbe necessary to give a creditable performance.At its last meeting the Chorus elected thefollowing officers: President Mr. Gurney;Secretary and Treasurer, Eva Cleveland; Lib­rarian, Mr. E. E. Irons. The Chorus has justbegun the study of old English Ballads like"Spring's Com in' In," with the intention ofgiving at the end of the season a concert illus- trating the songs of various periods. Thereare now over thirty members taking up thiswork and, as it has just commenced,' there is achance for still more. The only expense isthe initiation fee of 25 cents.The Student Faculty met in Haskell Mus­eum, Friday afternoon and discussed the fol­lowing question: "Should a single form of theBachelor's Degree be conferred upon studentsgraduated from the different college courses."Profs. Small and MacClintock spoke for theaffirmative, and Prof. Shorey and Miller repre­sented the negative. This same question wasalso considered by the University Faculty afew weeks ago.The Student Faculty was organized lastquarter, and consists of a limited number ofgraduate students, with Dr. Harper as presi­dent. Its aim is to give its members practicalexperience in faculty work, by following themethods and taking- up the matters usual incollege faculties.Harvard and Yale.-Professor Stagg hasbeen kept busy the past week confirming anddenying reported offers by eastern colleges toarrange games with our athletic teams ontrack, diamond and gridiron the coming sea­son. So far only one official communicationhas been received, one from the athletic de­partment of Harvard University asking for afootball game at Cambrige, October 21. Thematter was acted' upon by the local athleticboard Saturday, and, while the date was felt tobe unfavorable to us, owing to the Pennsyl­vania game here just one week later, it wasdecided to schedule the game, provided Har­vard would agree to play in Chicago in 1900.177nication will be at once forthcoming, askingfor both baseball and football dates. A dualtrack meet is also proposed. We certainly havecause for congratulation in the fact that athlet­ics in the west, and at Chicago in particular,is receiving such recognition in the eastern col­lege world this year. Much of the change iswithout doubt distinctly tracable to the show­ing we made aga,inst Pe nnsv l vania last Novem­ber.178 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYThe answer from Harvard will be awaited withinterest. The offer came in the nature of asurprise to us, as it was understood that thedate was being held open for Michigan.During the past week, also, there have beenfrequent reports in the city papers of an inten­tion on the part of Yale to ask for a game.The last, an apparently authentic interviewwith Percy Rockefeller, this year's athleticmanager at New Haven, states that a commu-OLD TIMES ON THE GLEE CLUB.MR. EDITOR:You say, "Write about Glee-club times inthe oid days!" How much space will yougive lip? "A thousand columns!" Thatwould not be a sufficient number in which torelate one hundredth part of the Glee-clubdoings in the" old, days."The first trip?

"At the" second stop," the committee on en­tertainment-two young ladies and a youthtoo small to carry the leaders dress-suit casemet us at the depot and" farmed us out."

Before dinner,per agreement, we met at the exhibitition. "Jo­Jo, the South Sea Island Mystery," appearedand, notwithstanding the vigorous protests ofhis manager, was compelled to remove his wigand false beard and admit that he was cap­tured on South Clark street.Three years later, at M t.

"The incidents of the Wisconsin trip are notto be forgotten by "old-timers." We were sopopular that the public demanded matinees inaddition to our scheduled evening concerts.It was on this trip, at Oshkosh, that ourcolored friend, "Bobby" Johnson went to afire, ordered the firemen to discontinue throw­ing beds, etc., from the upper windows;mounted a ladder, disappeared in the smokeissuing from a third-story window, reappearedwith a worthless hand-lamp and a box ofmatches, descended and placed them care­fully where the assembled crowd would tramplethem under foot.Our cars were "switched" at Caledonia Jun­ction-wherever that is-and here for twohours we waited "to be hitched on" theIi flyer" on the Rockford division, C.

We paid for and ate all the "blind­robins," cheese, crackers and stick-candy inthe store, and bought a bolt or two of calico.Having dumbfounded the venerable P. M.,with" the little wisp of whiskers on his chin,"we visited the hog-pens of the immediate vici­nity and finding the" porkers" in a grunting­hungry mood, we fed them plenteously withthe corn of the nearby cribs. Then, in an en­deavor to climax the two-hours outing, we ap­propriated an empty keg and placed it uponthe belEry-top of the school-house. In this in­nocent amusement, we met opposition. Thepopulace objected and succeeded, by an enmasse movement on our flank, in destroyingour ladder. Poor Snow, "the divinity bass,"was on the roof! But undaunted he slid tothe edge and then jumped into a great snowbank. 'vVe mined for him and recovered thehero unharmed. We were discussing a plan atimmediate campaign when a flag of truce wasseen approaching from the enemy's lines. Thebearer was an old gray-headed, gray-beardedman. Our delegate met him half way and ac­cepted his terms. He said he was a veteran ofthe Civil war, and that in his 80 years of ex­perience in war and peace, he had never pro­posed a more worthy truce. "This," said he"is a national holiday, (New Years Day.) Letus go to my house, take out the tattered colorsof myoid regiment and then let us march upand down these roads and lanes singing " MyCountry 'tis of Thee!" We accepted and foran hour the strange spectacle of black-clothed,patent-leathered. university men led by an old,bent, blue-jcaned, calf-booted farmer, all sing­ing the national hymn-could have been wit­nessed in this lonely snow-banked junction.And the western trip!

Thenit is all the more necessary that we put forthour 'best foot" and strive to make the wholeaffair one which will in all respects be represen­tative and worthy of the University.There are at this moment two thousand stu­dents who are actively connected with theUniversity, and it will seem exceedinglystrange if everyone of the sixteen hundredseats in Studebaker Hall is not occupied nextTuesday night, especially when the families andfriends of the students are taken into considera­tion. If every other inducement fails, there isstill one duty left,-go to the concert forloyalty's sake.The advance sale of seats to clubs, fraterni­ties and houses, while not at all discouraging,has not been as large as last year. This isprobably because some of the organizationshave not realized the advantage of an earlyselection, or perhaps even the social necessityof being represented on that evening by aslarge a number as possible.180 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYU:be 1llni"erett� of (tbicago 'ijijleekl�.EDITOR.IAL BOAR.D.Wrr,UAM BURGESS CORNELl" '99, - Managing EditorWALTER JOSEPH 8CH:\rAHI, '00, - - Associate EditorASSISTANT ET)ITOI<S.VAN SUMNER PEARCE, '9').JOSEPHINE ALLIN, '9').THOMAS C.

One lamentable factwas the lack of material, which was deficientnot so much in quality as quantity. Anothersetback to the Glee Club was an unfortunatechoice of a trainer, which, later on, resulted innot only a change in musical directors, but inthe learning of an entire new repertoire.Further, the Banjo Club was weakened by theloss of its leader and two best players.Nothing daunted, the Clubs redoubled theirefforts and resolved to retrieve the bad begin­ning by a good ending. Each club has prac­ticed long and faithfully, and many a wearyhour has been spent 111 preparing for this par­ticular concert, with the result that they are inshape to give one of the best performances inthe history of the organization. May they berewarded for their effort by a large and enthus­iastic assemblage Tuesday night!Marcus P. Frutchey is manager of the com­bined clubs again this year. This insures acapable business administration, for with theexperience of one year Mr. Frutchey will leavenothing undone that will contribute to the suc­cess of the concert. Mr. A. S.

The change from Central MusicStudebaker Hall to Studebaker is well ad-Hall, vised and will be productive ofgood results. No finer place forour concert could be found in Chicago. Thebeauty of its interior and its general arrange­ment render it particularly to be desired on thisoccasion. Next Tuesday evening, when all aregathered to greet the young fellows who willsing the praises of Chicago, Studebaker Hall will present an appearance that will be wellworth seeing.Contrary to the usual customThe Trip. no trip was taken this year atChristmas, but it was deemed wiserto concentrate all endeavors upon a Southerntrip similar to the one planned, but abandoned,last year. This time the trip seems to beassured. However, the financial success of theannual concert would add much toward makingit a positive reality. This fact only adds to the.obligation of every loyal member of the Uni­versity to give the annual concert his liberalsupport.A very unpleasant feature inOrder of connection with chapel servicePrecedence. has been brought forcibly to our'notice. We mean the order ofleaving chapel. Usually the women areallowed to file out before the men, 'but thiscustom has not been observed of late, and thewomen have been jostled and crowded withscant courtesy. Then, again, if the womenescape before the crush a rush line is formedby the men, and no sooner has the last coedleft than a regular foot ball s�rimmage ensues.Such conduct is certainly more befitting high­school pupils than University men. Thischaotic state of affairs should be remedied ,and we submit the following order of leavingchapel: First, the faculty; second, the coeds;then the different divisions in order of prece­dence: Division I, Division II, etc. With theobservance of some such system there wouldbe no disorderly crowding at the dismissal ofchapel and the proper respect would be shownthe women and the upper class men. It wouldbe timely for the Senior and Junior Councils totake action on this matter, as the criticism ap­plies as well to both colleges.Dr. Temple S.

How a College Newspaper is Run.From Newspaperdom, New York.The college community in New Haven longago recognized "heeling for the News" as oneof the most instructive evidences of that indus­try and push for which Yale undergraduatesare supposed to be conspicuous. The "N ewsheeler" has become as familiar a figure and asindisputable a part of Yale life as the facultyor the corporation itself.For years he- has plied his trade upon thecampus, armed with fountain pen and note­book; has drifted through the dormitory in aghostly sort of a way; has popped in upon theprofessors, and even the president himself, atall hours of the day and night. The editors ofthe News do little except examine the work ofthe army of freshmen, sophomores, and Juniorswho are working for places upon the paper.These latter write practically the whole sheet;news articles, personals, literary critiques, edi­torials-everything excepting the advertise­ments. - The editors simply sit by turns in thefine apartment provided for their use on thefirst floor of White Hall, cull out the matterfor the next day's paper from the contributionsthat come in.Only half-a-dozen or so men are taken on theNews from each class, but this fact does notdiscourage the large number of men who worklike beavers, all hours of the day, and sevendays a week for the coveted positions. Themethod by which these choices are made isunique. it is not quality that counts, so muchas quantity. An accurate tally of every con­testant's work is kept from day to day. Thisrecord discloses the amount of work a man hasdone, not in columns or paragraphs, or evenlines, but words. The man who has the largestnumber of words to his credit is the man whowins the prize. It makes no difference howeloquent a writer may be; he may have writtenthe editorial that has aroused the enthusiasmof the whole college, but that counts for nomore than the most matter-of-fact exhorta­tion to join the Yale Union or contribute tothe Young Men's Christian Association. Theonly evidence that quality counts for anythingis the "credit" assigned to the different workon the paper. An editorial receives morecredit than a single item of information, and anarticle on the front page is regarded as moreimportant than a personal distributed amongthe advertisements. I n these cases what iscalled "double credit" is given-that is, thenumber of words accepted is simply doubledin the account-books of the paper. 185��o/( i EARL WILSON'S.7 \\1 iMEN'S LINEN '::0 LlARS AND CUFFS�,,'\'\h11 "ARE THE BEST"19:;4�� I FOR SALE EVERYWHE-RE.186 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYHeadaches are often caused by slightderangement of the stomach or overtaxing thenervous system by excessive hours of study,which is often the case with students.
