SLAUGHT.In fulfilling the request for an article on' thebenefits denved from the study of Mathemat­ics, the writer has been aided by the WEEKLY'Sartist in dividing his subject graphically intothree parts corresponding' to the floors orstories of a house.Consider; first, the elementary branches whichare intimately connected with the four founda­tion sills, Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry andTrigonometry. To 'such an extent as thesefour subjects are taught in the preparatory.schools, and in the first year in college. they arealmost universally regarded as essential to aliberal education. A glance at the accompany­ing- cut will show, moreover, how close is theinterrelation between them and their variousapplications in connection with a. multitude ofbusiness and technical pursuits, in which onecan hardly be regarded as equipped for suc­cessful achievement without a command ofthese mental tools. The farmer who insistedthat his son should study nothing but "book­keepin' and bankin' "little understood the train­ing required in a business man, in order, tomeet the intense competition of today. Abun­pant testimony is borne to the folly of suchmiscalculation by the thousands of men bothyoung and old. in a city like Chicago, book­keepers, bank-clerks, draughtsmen, engineers,architects, electric ians, teachers, who throngthe night schools. Finding themselves out­stripped by those of superior training, they atfirst turn to the standard books in their line ofwork and discover that they are unable to readthem intelligently because of the constant useof other related branches of mathematics withwhich they have little or no acquaintance.Aroused by 'such a revelation they hasten to re­pair the loss as best they can at so late a day.I t will be granted that one who is to teachlYIathem"atic's even in the grades should 'have the training at least through the requiredcourses in college, as is, indeed, the rule inFrance and Germany, though it is more oftenthe exception in America. But, it is asked,why should a teacher of other branches thanMathematics, or one who is to engage in anywork or profession in which nothing more thansimple Arithmetic is required in actual prac­tice-why should such a person spend his time������,'-�"""��.........����studying Trigonometry and College Algebra?Similar questions might equally well be askedin regard to almost any subject in the curricu­lum and the strict utilitarian answer would ex·elude all subjects except those immediatelyconcerned with one's specialty.

They consti­tute a part of the world's great literature.Mathematics is a language in terms ·of whichmost profound truths have been formulated bythe greatest minds. It is said of Sir IsaacNewton that when, by mathematical processes,he had established the law of gravitation in thesolar system, he exclaimed: "I am thinkingthe thoughts.of God after Him." In the studyof College Algebra one thinks through and re­discovers the results handed down by Newtonand a long line of other profound thinkers.Mathematics is a powerful instrument in in­vestigation and for application to the problemsunderlying the world's great achievements.It is worth the work of the course in Trigono­metry to be able to handle the tools by whichthe far reaching results of the United StatesCoast Survey have been accomplished, or tobecome acquainted with at least one of theagencies through which the prediction of eclip­ses, the recurrence of the tides and a score ofother matters of daily acceptation are tabula­ted for us in our almanacs.Mathematics furnishes an exhibition of con­sistency and certainty in argument and conclu­sion unequalled in almost any other branch ofinvestigation. To understand how the meth­ods of Geometry, Trigonometry and Algebramutually confirm every theorem common tothese subjects, to comprehend the language interms of which each in its own way answers agiven question, each throwing new light butall reflected to the same focus, all this canhardly fail to impress the student with deeprespect for exact science and to arouse in him alively interest in these subjects per se. . His in­terest expands and deepens as he becomesfamiliar with the remarkable transformationsapplicable to the forms with which these sub­jects deal and through which they continuallyoperate. This is especially true of Trigonome­try and of Analytic Geometry. The latter isbut a combination of Algebra and Geometry,each giving to the other a new and broader in­terpretatiori and the whole constituting whatmay be called the most beautiful and fascinat­ing of the elementary subjects, and, as ·such, it 786forms a fitting close for those who intend topursue mathematical studies no further.Again, Mathematics furnishes a field of con­flict and struggle on which most glorious men­tal victories may be won; victories which gen­erate mental fibre and stimulate moral cour­age, victories or defeats which bring to lightthe sort of stuff of which the student is made,which reveal himself to himself.And, finally, the reason which IS commonlyput first, Mathematics developes mental disci­pline. It is true that in this respect it standsin the first rank, but its very common accepta­tion as such may lead to the seriously danger­ous conclusion that it is an automatic panaceafor sluggish minds. The study of any of thesebranches languidly entered upon, or pursued asa mere memory process, will yield scant re­turns in mental discipline .. But when takenhold of with zeal and under circumstances favor­able to interest in the work, and with a .deter-mination to overcome all difficulties, to windaily victories and never to suffer defeat, thenthe returns are sure to be rich in the cultiva-tion of accurate. concise, clear, logical think­ing and in the development of independentpower In mental processess, all of which mustreact most favorably upon every other phaseof the student's activity.Coming to the second division of the subject,the Calculus may be co nsi dered, on the onehand, as fundamental for much of the work inthe Higher Mathematics, and, on the otherhand, as rounding out and widely extendingthe range of nearly all the lower branches.As the work of this division is entirely elec­tive, the student enters upon it with a zealborn of enthusiasm generated in his previousmathematical courses, seeking further enlarge­ment and a still mere powerful instrument ofinvestigation. He soon understands that hishighest hopes are to be realized. The intro­duction of variable quantity as the fundamen­tal concept gi ves a new force and a deepermeaning to the logical processes. This quick­ens his mind and stirs his mental powers to­their utmost activity. And when he realizes.the wide range of possibility in the further de­velopment of all his earlier courses, his inter­est and ambition are quickened to the utmost.Geometry and Algebra take on a new meaningand importance.

A description of this work andthe courses offered at the University may befound in the programme of the Department ofMathematics and Astronomy.Those who pursue these courses successfullymust be fitted by natural gifts and proper earlytraining to enter upon highly abstract and logi­cally delicate investigation. It should not besupposed, however, that the results of such in­vestigation are always or only subjective andintangible. Indeed many of the most import­ant practical problems are sol ved by means ofthe methods developed and the conclusionsreached in these highly theoretical investiga­tions. But even when such beneficent resultsof his discoveries are not in sight, indeed, quiteindependent of their possible existence, thepure mathematician, like the Egyptologist,digs on with increasing zeal and pleasure, find­ing gratification in each new discovery andconfident that any truth brought, to lightmust take its place and find its degree of im­portance in the sum total of all 'truths.Further than this, however, we should notpress this illustration.

The object of the club is the studyof municipal questions. The club does not in­tend to take any active part in city politics,but will try to secure the mayorality candidatesas speakers at the University during the com­ing city election.The officers of the club are:President, Mr. Rom age Adams; Vice Presi­dent, Mr. J. E. Miller; Secretary, Mr. O. L.lvIcCaskill, Treasurer, Mr. W. R. Smith.Executive committee: Mr. J. S. Young,Mr. H. B.

Shepardson; re adu.g, Prof. F.W. Blanchard; music, The University Band;music, The University Choir.The exercises will be held in Kent theatre,and will be of such a nature that no student canafford to miss them.The Union meeting of the Y. W. C. A. andthe Y. M. C. A. on Sunday evening was ad-'dressed by Miss Blanche Milham, the Secre­tary of the Student Volunteer Society. MissMilham spoke earnestly on the subject of mis­sions in general, and especially emphasizedthe importance of every Christian assuming aproper attitude towards this work.Mr. D. W. Hopkins was taken sick last Friday anddid not attend college the first partof this week.788l�fn,r!SW;;:.DL{MXj:ts::::?iJJ)<V\{:;*},)!k':4{�cM:t·,� .. :::* ::·':{L::9:':r":::>i:;t:···P.d:WrU'h}i$,l\;\:,�d�;�f??::*'MtfMW:U:�JE�i ti$_;_;:*�**'The Dramatic Club, Its Past and Present Owing to the scarcity of student plays theClub has usually produced one-act farces,which have been favorably received on theprofessional stage, relying on their snap andgo rather than local hits to win success.PAST.The' University of Chicago Dramatic Clubdates its organization from the spring of 1895.Previous to that ti me there had been no per­manent organization; although one or two en­tertainments had been given by a number ofstudents and professors who took an interestin stage craft.The first of these productions, a "Washing­ton's Birthday Souvenir," was given during theearly spring of '94. This could scarcely be dig­nified with the name of a play, being rather ahodge-podge satirizing some of the things con­nected with the earlier days of the University.On "Academic Day" in June '94 a satiricalsketch was given at Kent Theatre by a numberof the students. The name "Academic Day"was changed to "Junior Day," in the followingyear. This is the origin of the custom of theDramatic Club's appearance on Junior Day.This satire called' 'The New Cosmogony," waswritten by Miss Alice Van Vlietand Miss EdithFoster. In it a number of the faculty were im­personated by a dozen or so .students, whowere supposed to act in the dual role of GreekGods and members of the faculty at oneand the same time.On the day of the Dramatic Club's organiza­tion 1895, Mr. Charles Sumner Pike was elec­ted first president. The charter memberswere Mr. C. S. Pike, Mr. W. Walt Atwood, Mr.Robert Law, Jr., Mr. S. S. McClintock, Mr.Forest Grant, Mr. Harry T. Chace, J.r:., MissEdith E. Schwarz, Miss Mary E. Reddy, MissHarriet L. Seaveg, Miss Agnes S. Cook, MissH. G. Gall, Miss Anna H. Wilmarth, (Mrs. J.'W. Thompson) Miss- Adelaide M. Ide, MissTheodosia Kane. Mr. Pike the new president,also wrote the first original play that possesseda serious claim to dramatic form. It was aone act farce entitled "A Summer Student,"and aimed to satirize the co-educational sideof University life throughout the country andat Chicago. It was full of local hits, none ofwhich were personal. It possessed a plot andproved a surprising success. This play hasbeen followed by one or two other originalcompositions, by students of the University;notably by Miss Marjorie Benton Cooke '99,given on Junior Day, '1899. PRESENTTHE NEXT PLAYThe Dramatic Club gives its next play atRosalie Music Hall on Friday evening, Marchthe first. The play is a three act farce comedy,called Miss "Flim Flam," written by SidneyGrundy. The piece abounds in telling situ­ations. The action is rapid, the dialoguebright. The play is constructed following the'classical three unities: the action taking placeunder-one roof within a space of two hours.The theme developed is the disastrous experi­ence of Arthur Hummingtop, a wealthy Ameri­can residing in London, who, during the tern-TMR.

Fallingin with a variety actress, Miss Flirn Flam, theylose their way in the fog.

Trials for admission into theclub are held annually in the fall of the year.The contestants are judged upon merit andfitness, merit consistmg in voice, pres­ence, ability to read and interpret a part, fit­ness in personal character and congeniality tothe members of the club.The members of the club are learning thatacting is not play but serious, painstakingwork. That the analysis of parts, the delinea­tion of character, the knack of entering intoan effective picture come only as the result ofhard study and, serious practice. Althoughfully conscious that its members are not Gil­berts or J effersons, the club feels that from theonlookers point of view, its work can be bothcreditable and enjoyable.I believe, the Dramatic Club is established ona firm foundation, being a representative stud-ent organization. 'Its further progress depends upon theearnestness and fidelity of its members to makeeach of the plays produced an artistic success.ROWLAND T.

Some weeks past an organization was formedin the University whose pur-The pose it is to help the votmgcollege men to cast an in-telligent ballot, to examinethe workings of the local political machines, topry into the methods of party bosses, and inshort, to make a study of the practical psychol­og'y of municipal politics. '. The organization,which has been. baptized the Civics Club, hasas its ideal that divorce of city and nationalissues for which the Municipal Voter's LeagueI strove so ardently four years ago. At theirregular club meetings the members will listento talks by political celebrities and by local. talent, and will discuss in �n informal' manner,the. important questions of municipal politics.In addition they will attend primary elections,and will take an active part in precinct andCivics Club. $1.75.50 ward politics.This brings up again the old question as tothe propriety of the college man's attempt tomeddle with politics; that question in this case,we answer with a most emphatic affirmative.The Civics Club may fall utterly to produce aripple in the political pond, or as some haveadmonished, its influence may be turned bysome crafty politician in the direction oppositethat toward which they are striving. But what­soever the superficial outcome may be such ex­perience will not, cannot fail to have a power�ful educating influence, and those who partici-ate in it will not, after leaving college, bemerely ornamental flowers upon the politicallandscape which any and every party boss. cancull, much to his own satisfaction and glory;but they will be men, versed in political wiles,competent to work so that their efforts makefor better government, citizens in the fullestsense of the word.Chicago is not the first to attem pt this or­ganized 'study of political science. Michiganalso has a similar club which is a most potentfactor in the student life; which has paid theexpenses of such distinguished guests as Roos-· evelt and Bryan; which numbers over sevenhundred members. It is our hope that theCivics Club can soon boast of as large an influ­ence and' as long a roster as the Ann Arbor· organization. Every student who has any in­terest in political science should make it his· duty to join. The fee is merely nominal, andwe are confident that the pleasure and benefitderived from a membership will more thantrebly compensate for any sacrifice or loss oftime incurred. • IIt is understood that much difficulty is beinghad in getting the individ­Senior Class ual pictures of the SeniorPictures. 'class for insertion in theCap and Gown. Why, thistrouble should have arisen is not particularly• I clear. At a regular meeting of the class, atwhich most of the members were present, .ito was unanimously agreed that the pictures ofthe individual members should be added to thecustomary list of names and honors in the Capand Gown. The fact that no objections at allwere raised to the proposition and that fiftydollars was appropriated from the slendertreasury of the class for this purpose, wouldlead one to believe that the Seniors wereagreed on the merits of the action.At present, although it is a week after thetime when the pictures should have been ready,only about seventy have been handed in to thecommittee in charge. Assurances have beenreceived, however, from almost all of the re­maining members that their photographs willbe in soon. Therefore the only appeal to bemade to the majority of the class is that theyshould make as great haste as possible becausethe Cap and Gown editors are clamoring forthe speedy settlement of. this portion of theirduties.There.is a small portion of the class whichhas refused to hand in pictures. But althoughfew in numbers these recalcitrants are an influ­encing factor, as many members have askedthat their pictures should not inserted if alldid not respond. As the objectors have givenno reason and represent apparantly no particu­lar class of the University students, either. social or otherwise marked, it is hard to see, by what the refusal, is actuated. W.e must,therefore, conclude private or personalreasons prevail; int� which it 'is hardly the pro­vince of the class or its committee to inquire.The reasonable. thing for the rest of theclass to do is to disregard this apparent dis­loyalty and consent to the printing of all thepictures obtainable, which, according to prom­ises will include those of all except eight'or ten members of the. class., The posi-,-.Eion. of: a class , voting fifty . .dollars ,.and. � �-'..

For five years this policyhas been pursued with undoubted success.Thirty-four men have been initiated sincethe inception of the chapter and it has alwaysbeen our boast that no other frat in the Uni­versity had a more loyal set of members thanwe. College honors have been sought, but thepetty intrigues and keen strifes of college poli­tics have been shunned. Nevertheless thechapter has numbered among its members afootball captain, a track team captain, twosenior class presidents, the first student repre­sentative on the Athletic Board, Glee Clubpresidents and leaders, two senior collegecouncil chairmen, three managing editors of. the WEEKLY, the editor in chief of the latelamented "The Daily Maroon" and editors, ora­tors, actors, singers, musicians and athletes inlarge numbers.Chapter houses have been occupied duringsuccessive years at 5716 Rosalie court, 57.16-Kimbark avenue, 5714 Washington avenue,and 5732 Washington avenue, where the chap­ter is now located.This chapter had its beginning, as most ofthe fraternity chapters at our University havehad theirs, in a local organization. In Octo­ber 1894 the club which afterwards becameknown as "The Waifs," was organized by H.C. Murphy, T. A. Moran, Howard Roosa, H.W. Black, C. F. Roby and M. E. Coleman. Inless than a week F. F. Steig meyer's name wasadded to the roll and with this membershipthe club was launched on its career. For twoyears no thought of existing as other than alocal organization was seriously considered, al-. though a number of the members belonged tofraternities not represented by cha pters at Chi­cago. During the spring quarter of '96, how­ever, the growing fraternity spirit at the Uni­versity had its effect upon "The Waifs" andafter much cogitation on the subject it wasdecided to apply for a charter from the SigmaChi Fraternity. Nothing more than planningcould be accomplished that year owing to thelateness of the season, but with the opening ofthe fall quarter avigorous campaign was insti­tuted led by two Sigma Chis, Mr. NewmanMiller and Mr. P. M. Griffith, the former being,at that time an official in the division and thelatter a member of the club. New men hadbeen added from timeto time as the firstmern­bers graduated, but the number of names onthe charter whIch was granted in January 1897,was the same as appears on the original roll of"The Waifs," i. e. seven. The chapter was in­stalled February 7, 1897 with the followingroster: C. F. Roby, M. E. Coleman, F. F.Steigmeyer, P. W. Griffith, V. M. Sincere S. M.Samson, W. F. McDonald and H. A. Aber­nethy. The initiatory services were conductedby the grand officers of the fraternity who.were actively and ably assisted by the N orth­western chapter as well as by delegationsfrom the chapters at Michigan, Wisconsin, Illi­nois, Beloit and several other colleges locatedin Indiana and Ohio. A banquet followed theceremonies and the next day was devoted to ahouse warming at the new' chapter's house,5716 Rosalie Court. From the start the policyof the chapter has been to conduct a smallcompact organization in the belief that truefraternalism can be more easily and surelysecured thus than by fostering a large, un­wieldy membership, with its attendant dang- 1M. E. COLEMAN '98.Illinois Beta of Phi Delta Theta. 'The Illinois Beta chapter of the Phi DeltaTheta fraternity, as the chapter in the Univer­sity of Chicago is known to the fraternity, be­gan its existence in February, 1897. It mightbetter be said that it was revived at that time,there having been, as is true of a number ofthe other fraternities represented in th'e uni­versity, a chapter in the old University of Chi­cago. The chapter in the old University wasinstalled on Oct. 14, 186S, and suspended atthe death of the University. The charter mem­bers were C. C. Kohlsaat, Frederick A. Smith,Charles; P. Jacobs, William H. Fitch, J r., Chas,N. Hull, R. W. Bridge, E. A. Slack, WilliamThompson, R. A. D. Wilbanks and Sanford K�Austin.Many prominent members of the fraternitywere interested in the re-establishment of achapter in the University when it began itsnew life. The members of the original chap­ter, manifesting great interest in the presentuniversity as a successor of their alma mater,I were especially desirous of having a chapter oftheir fraternity in the list of Greek letter socie­ties in the new institution.The men who late in the college year of 1896joined themselves together to secure, if possi­ble, a charter in Phi Delta Theta, were StacyC. Mosser, Harold L. Ickes, Harvey A. Peter­son and William O. Wilson. All of those menresided at the time in Snell Hall. Applicationwas made to the fraternity for a charter, andat the next biennial convention held at Phila­delphia in November, 1896, it was unanimous­ly granted. During the brier time which fol­lowed until the installation of the chapter inFebruary, 1897, the organization was known asthe Beta Club. .Before the chapter was in­stalled five more men had been secured, mak­ing the list as follows: Stacy C. Mosser, Har­old L. Ickes, Harvey A. Peterson, William O.Wilson, Charles K. Bliss, Cad S. Sawyer,Knight .F. Flanders, Charles F. Breed and Les­ter B. Fulton.The installation exercises were held at theGreat Northern Hotel under the active chargeof the Chicago alumni of the fraternity and thechapter at Northwestern University. The in­stallation banquet of the alumni followed atthe Union League Club.Once installed the chapter proceeded immed­iately to establish some sort of headquarters.H. L. Ickes, W. O. Wilson and Lester B. Ful­ton moved from Snell into apartments at 5738Monroe Avenue. The next fall the entire flatat the same address was secured, and thisserved the chapter as a "house" until the fallof '.98. Then the chapter moved into the flatat 5744 Monroe Avenue. These quarters, too,were soon outgrown and a little over two yearsago Phi Delta Theta occupied its presenthouse at 5750 Madison Avenue. The chapterhas maintained a "house" continuously sinceits founding.In influence and prestige the Chicago chap­ter of Phi Delta Theta has gained steadily andnaturally since its birth. The chapter nowcontains fifteen active members, and probablya larger proportion of them live together inthe house than of the members of any otherlocal chapter. It, has been the policy of PhiDelta Theta to maintain a well rounded evenlybalanced chapter, without seeking to dominatein anyone line of student activity, while show- 79-;'ing an active and loyal interest in every phaseof college life. The chapter was founded inthe belief that after all congeniality and mu­tual good fellowship form the basis of everyreally successful fraternity.During the college life of the men who or­ganized the Illinois Beta chapter, fraternitieswere encom passed by many rules and regula­tions, which, however, for the most part, wereremoved or modified before the chapter wasinstalled. Fraternities were finally given amore welcome position in the life of the uni­versity. The men who organized Illinois Betawere instilled with the idea that fraternitymen should place above all else the welfare ofthe university, and that advancement in allbranches of student life ought to depend onmerit and not on the fact that a man belongedto a particular fraternity.The inauguration of the chapter ot Phi DeltaTheta at the university has brought new lifeinto theIarge body of alumni of the fraternityin the city. Weekly luncheons and bi-monthlydinners have been inaugurated, and the annualbanquets have become greater successes thanever before. College men from all over theUnited States are by these means brought intoa closer relationship with mutual advantage toalL WILLIAM O. WILSON.Cap and Gown Announcement.It is requested' by the editors of the Cap andGown that all members of the fraternitieswhich are not represented in this University,send their names to box 152, Faculty Ex­changes, together with the names of formercolleges.The editors of the "Cap and Gown" are pro­gressing rapidly with- their work. The firstbook, that on the Faculty, is completed andwill be sent to press very soon. Work on theother sections is being rushed, and is expectedto be finished by March 1. The plates of allthe pictures that are to be inserted must be inby that date. About fifty of the photographsof the Senior class have already been received.According to present indications the "Cap andGown" should be on sale by the first of April.Members of the University who can secureadvertisements for the Cap and Gown will bepaid a commission for the same: For furtherinformation address Business Managers, Capand Gown, Box 'r 52, Faculty Exchange.14*+;1*WJdjtr*/At�:,:;;(!Mr¥1·;::;r;·)+;4f�;:m>:::�... 1: .:r<f· :(\:)':i(:f:$;tti¥¢.;��ilt/:}f.!)}g.lr\;·,t.xr;�?/U�;;:DW$f.'WiU�**.i,\.K,::*'?;\;vlAthletics. than anything we can do. In the mile runWebster made a better record than our milersmade against the Y. M. O. A. In the pole vaultMartin cleared 10 ft., 8 7-8 in., and Maxwelldefeated Speik who in turn defeated our menin the shot put. Borden defeated Snow, whobeat our sprinters. Thus, in five out of twelveevents the soldiers are our superiors or equals.In the other events we can probably win fromthem.' Nevertheless the First Regiment willbe one of our strongest rivals, March 2.Yesterday evening our track team contestedwith the Michigan team in the first inter­collegiate meet of the season. There are threeother indoor meets for our men this season.The next is the A.�.A. U. meet at Milwaukee,March 2. After that we send a team of twelvemen to Notre Dame to take part in an invita­tion meet between Notre Dame, the Universityof Illinois and ourselves on March 9, and final­ly a week after that, March 16, we have ourlast indoor meet of the season, and the secondone with Michigan at Ann Arbor. Along withthe college meet last night there took place ahigh school meet between four of the city highschools. Partially owing to this, and in orderto get through before midnight three of theregular events, the IO pt, 20 )' d. dash, the 2 milerun, and the broad jump were left out. This ofcourse greatly weakened our team, as in allthree of these events we are strong. TheMichigan team on the other hand was some­what handicapped by being accustomed to usemats in the high jump and pole vault, whichwere not used last night, and also becausethey were not used to the track. The men onthe Michigan team were Hayes (captain),Fishleigh, Hall, Robinson, N ufer, Hasla�,Sweelev, Armstrong, Dvorak and Snow. TheMaroon team consisted of W. A. Moloney, F.G. Moloney, Manning, Lord, Z. Pettit, F. M.Horton, Wellington, Grabo, Ferriss and Catron.Owing to the WEEKLY going to press beforethe results of the meet are known, no accountof it can be given in this number. The teamsare very evenly matched.The meet between the first Regiment and thecombined Y. M. C. A. team which took placein the Gymnasium last Saturday evening is ofspecial interest to us, as our last meet was withthe Y. M. C. A., and as both of these teamswill be our opponents on March znd in theA. A. U. championship meet at Milwaukee.The fact that the soldiers defeated the Y. M.C. A. by a larger score, 63 2-3 to 3 I I -3, thanwe did, 55 to 33, suggests a possible superiorityof the Regiment over us. But after a study ofthe records made this superiority does notseem so pate.nt. In some events the soldiers.are sure to surpass us. Raecke in the highjump did 5 ft. IO 1-2 in., which is much better ), .* * * *The Freshman-Sophomore track and fieldmeet will probably take place in the Gymna­sium, on Saturday, February 23. That is theday set, but there has been some talk lately of. postponing it on account of the sickness of D.W. Hopkins, who was expected to be one ofthe principal contestants. There will be theusual events including the two mile run. Thetotal number of entries and the entries for eachevent will be unlimited. All men in the res­pective classes will be eligible whether theyhave conditions or not. "C" men who havewon their "C's" on the track will not be al-"lowed to compete in the track events;' andthose who have won theirs on the field will notbe eligible for the field events. The first threeplaces will count 5, 3 and 1 respectively, andthose who win a "first" will be given classnumerals. There will be no relay race as thathas already taken place. The Freshmen arestrong on the. field and the Sophomores on thetrack. The teams are probably very nearlymatched, but if there is an advantage it appar­ently lies with the Sophomores.An event of this kind can certainly do moreto promote class spirit than almost anythingelse. It encourages a spirit of wholesome riv­alry and tends to bring about 'a feeling of unityin the class. Let all good Freshmen and Soph­omores who have the interest of their classand that of the university at heart take part, orat least attend and cheer on their class men tovictory. Upper class men too, should be gladto see that spirit springing up which will meanmuch to the future- of the university, andshould do all they din to encourage it.The base ball squad has- been reduced to thefollowing twenty-four men: Axtell, EllsworthF. G. Harper, Hoover, Merrifield, Sunderland,.Van Patten, Watkins, Howe, Ahlswede, Pat­rick, Horton F. M., Miller, Nuckols, Pratt,Smart, Smith H. C., Smith T. B., Wyman, Bal­linger, Place, Sheldon, Calhoun and Sloan. In. about a week the squad will be still further re­duced. Those whose names are not on this listwill practice base ball on Tuesday and on otherdays take general exercise.Oratorical Association Recitals.Under the auspices of the Oratorical Asso­ciation of the University, a series of public re­citals by prominent people is to be given dur­ing the year. The first of these occurs Thurs­day, February 21, in Kent Theater, when MissIda Benfy, the well-known reader will recite.Miss Benfy's talent is so widely recognizedthat a large attendance is expected. Adm ission .is free though in the future a fee will becharged non-members. The association is en­deavoring in this way to increase interest in itsvarious activities among the student body.The fact does not seem to be duly appreciatedthat this organization has charge of all the de­bates and oratorical contests in which the Uni­versity of Chicago competes, and as such de­serves generous support. Membership is opento all undergraduates at the nominal fee offifty cents per year. Arthur E. Bestor is presi­dent, Vernon S. Phillips vice-president, Rus­sell Wiles secretary, and Joseph W. Bingham,treasurer. Bertram G. Nelson is chairman ofthe oratorical committee, and S. George Levyof the debating committee.Miss Cecil Bowman has returned fromBloomington, where she attended the fifteenthannual convention of the Young Woman'sChristian Association of Illinois. The variouscollege and city associations of the state wererepresented by over one hundred delegates ina series of interesting and helpful meetings.Miss Bowman will later present a full reportof the convention to the association.The weekly morning prayer meeting willnot be held this week as Friday is a holiday.The meeting on March I, will be led by Mrs.Gay.Mr. George McKillip has returned to the Universityafter an absence of a term. 795Peter.Continued from page 789.When he opened them she had gone from herseat, but he knew every feature of her facenow.A friend of his had sent him the picture "be­cause his name was Peter;" he had put it in hiswatch because he thought it the most beautifulface he had ever seen.
