"In conclusion let me say again that these remarks are merely perso- nal opinion-are not aimed as a criti- cism of the work of other schools, nor is it desired that they excite any con- troversy should they happen to pene- trate the sanctum sanctorum of any of the colleges having orators in this contest."


"UNCLE JOE" CANNON HERE


The Speaker of the House to Be At Ottawa Assembly


"Uncle Joe" Cannon is coming to Ottawa. We are going to hear a de- fense of his practises from his own lips, we are going to be hypnotized into admiration of his nervė, by his own striking personality. Secretary Durst, of tthe Ottawa assembly board, received a letter from the speaker Wednesday, definitely accepting the invitation to speak in Ottawa during the assembly. Cannon will be given the afternoon of the last day of the assembly, June 28th. "Uncle Joe's" acceptance was definitely made after the early adjournment of Con- gress was definitely decided upon.


The Ottawa chautauqua assembly has had more prominent speakers here than any in the West, some of them being President Taft, Ex-Presi- dent Mckinley, Governor Hanley, W. J. Bryan and others of national in- terest. It is recognized as the lead- ing chautauqua in the country, except the one at Chautauqua, New York.


As announced some time ago Prof. J. W. Bixel, of the University conser- vatory of music, will be in charge of the mus'c of the assembly this year and among other things, a large cho- rus will be a feature.


REV. L. H. HOLT HERE.


Well Known Oklahoma Clergyman, Fa- ther of George Holt '07, on a Visit.


Rev. Levi H. Holt, pastor of the First Baptist church, Stillwater, Ok- lahoma, was in Ottawa the first of the week, visiting his sister, Mrs. W. H. Keith. Mr. Holt filled the pulpit at the North Ottawa Baptist church last Sunday, both morning and evening. Mr. Holt is the father of George H. Holt, '07, and was himself a student in the university at one time.


FOR NEXT YEAR'S ANNUAL.


The Class of 1912 Gets Behind the Proposition Early.


Already plans are being made for next year's annual, the "Ottawan '11," and the book promises to eclipse all former efforts. This does not except this year's annual, which will un- doubtedly be a winner. The Sopho- more class held an election last Tues- day and chose the managers of next year's book. The choice of a staff has been occupying the attention of the editor this week. The editor-in-chief, associate editor, business manager and assistant business manager were elected and the staff chosen by the managers. Managers were chosen as follows:


Editor-in-chief-Spencer C. Frink.


Business manager-Hale Blair.


Associate editor-Wayne E. Gilli- land.


Assistant business manager-Jay Stewart.


The department editors have been chosen as follows:


Student traditions-Laura L. Sud- duth.


Student organizations-Ethel Myers Historical-Rivard Dill.


Athletics-Ross Bower.


Religious organizations - Grant Keetch.


Artists-Agnes M. Mitchell, Emma Griffith.


THE JOURNALISM COURSE.


Practical Newspaper Work in a Two- Hour Course Next Year.


Next year a two-hour journalism course will be offered in place of the one-hour course of this year. One hour will be devoted to lectures and writing for the Campus, and the other will be a laboratory hour in which the students will learn the practical side of newspaper work. A small printing press will be installed and a printer procured to take charge of the type- setting. Each student will "set up" his own articles and help print them.


The class will issue news bulletins and send them to newspapers and news letters to send to other colleges. They will print one bulletin and one letter each week.


It is expected that there will be a number of new members in the class next year. Journalism is a broad field and offers chances for rapid advanc- ement. Prof. E. R. Nichols is to be commended for his success in making the class this year not only interest- ing, but practical as well.

A NEW GYMNASIUM? WHY YES.


"Do Ottawa students want a new gymnasium? Do they think Ottawa University needs a new gymnasium more than anything else? If needed, how should that new gymnasium be secured?" These are the questions the answer to which is not hard to guess. The students are beginning to wonder what has become of the Student Gymnasium Committee that was appointed some time ago to look after this gymnasium proposition. The committeemen are undoubtedly busy. Everybody at Ottawa University is. Still the pledgers to that five thou- sand fund would like to know the developments.


So much for that.


But to return to the questions. Do Ottawa students want a new gymna- sium? Do they think Ottawa Uni- versity needs a new gymnasium more than anything e'se? If needed, how should that gymnasium be secured?


The Campus will keep a "Forum" column every issue from now on till commencement for communications which will answer the above ques- tions. Replies are desired from stu- dents, members of the faculty, the


trustees, and any persons interested in Ottawa University.

Topeka, April 25, (Special to Cam- puss by staff correspondent). The first game of the trip resulted in a 2 to 0 victory for Washburn. The re-


sult of the game was largely due to a very poor job of umpiring.


The first score was made by Mc- Campbell who got on first after he had struck out and first refused to run. But the ball dropped from the catcher's mit nad rolled away, and the man took first. He got to third on passed bal's and scored on a slow infield grounder to Crosby.


The second score came in the sec- ond inning when McCampbell came in from third on a wild pitch. Ottawa had men on bases at various times during the game but could not hit well.


The feature of the game was the playing of McCandless, in center field, who made some brilliant catches. The score:

LOVERS LANE.


In April, when the moon is full, How many a dress of bright delaine Goes arm in arm with some dark coat Along the woods by Lovers lane!


The newly plighted farthest roam, And latest in the wood remain;


But brides and bridegrooms seldom leave


The homeward end of Lovers' lane.


Sometimes a troop of children stray And follow in their parents train, To pick the sweet anemones That grow so thick in Lovers" lane.


Sometimes a lady walks alone, With head inclined, as if again. She heard the voice to us unknown She seems at home in Lovers' lane.


A stranger, banished long ago


From this green path, forgives his pain,


And sends a little prayer to heaven For all who walk in Lovers' lane. -Sarah N. Cleghorn in Everybody's Magazine.


TO TALK ESPERANTO.


Kansas Educators Will Confer on the New World Language. Wichita, Kansas, April 29 .- The first esperanto convention ever held in the southwest will meet in this city June 10 and 11.

The convention in Wichita will be made up of delegates and visitors from the southwest esperanto dis- trict, comprising Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Lately espera- tists' societies have been formed In these states and especially in Kan- sas. Dr. Elmer E. Haynes, of Lewis Kansas, is councilor for the south- west district.


The June meeting in this city will be the first of the kind the south- western esperantists have attempted and a great deal of interest is being taken in it.

A COUNTY FIELD MEET


Annual County School Event On Col- lege Track Last Saturday.


Superintendent C. A. D. Jacobus, of Frankln County, held his annual inter- scholastic field day and spe ling con- test in Ottawa last Saturday.


The field contests which were held on the college campus, were in two casses one for the high schools of the county, and the other for the grade schools of the county.


The day was a poor one for a track meet. The wind was high and cold. While there were no records broken, there was a great deal of keen riva ry between the schools.


Richmond and Wellsville were par- ticularly rivals for first place in the high school class. Richmond won by the narrow margin of one and one- hali points. 1


Williamsburg walked away with the grade score with 58 points. Ever- green came next with 15 points, while Wellsville pulled down third with 10 points.


The officials were Prof. Lamar, of the Ottawa High School, starter; Mize and Crater, timers; Prof. Jacobus, scorer for the track evennts, while Bower and Prof. A. M. Myers of the Ottawa High School, pulled off the fie d' events with Dean for scorer.


In the forenoon Lane and Williams- burg girl's high school teams played a game of basketball. Lane walked off with the long end of the score win- ning by a score of 19 to 14. George refereed and Crosby umpired game, which was slow and rough.


the


An admission price of ten cents was charged to the game and field meet while five cents admitted to the spell- ing contest in the evening at the Washington school building. A re- markable thing about the match was that no two contestants went down on the same word. Miss Frank Ed- monson, of Pleasant Valley, won first place, Hazel Miner, of Union Cen- ter, second, Blanche Claypool, of Wil- liamsburg, third, Mabel Whitsett, of Homewood, fourth and Hazel Garst, of Princeton, fifth. The first prize was a Webster's unabridged diction- ary and the rest of the prizes were

TALKED TO THE MEN.


Miss Pirscher Spoke to Y. M .- Rev. Jordan at Joint Meeting Tomorrow.


The Y. M. C. A. meeting last Sunday morning was led by Miss Johanna Pirscher, who discussed the bushels under which some of the young men hide their natural light of courtesy and regard for others. She took up and discussed in a helpful way the home relations, the student relations, and the general relations of young men, and urged against repression of im- pulse to assist others, or to manifest in little things appreciation for others and of their efforts for us.


She expressed an optimistic view of the natural kindly impulses of young men, but in a kindly manner hinted at some directions in which there may be room for improvement in the way of not repressing certain impulses. The members of the association have reason to thank Miss Pirscher for con- senting to address them.


The meeting tomorrow will be a


joint one of the two Christan associa tions. Rev. W. T. Jordan, pastor o the Congregational church, wil ad dress the meeting, which will be held at 3 o'clock in the afternoon to sui the convenience of the speaker.


Remember the joint meeting of the Christian Associations tomorrow aft ernoon, three o'clock. Rev. W. T. Jor dan will address the meeting.

PERSONAL MENTION


Eva Stephenson spent Sunnday vis- iting her parents in Lebo.


A part of the sociology class with Dr. Harlan are planning to go to Kan- sas City two weeks from today and visit points of interest. The s'augh- ter house and the Jewish charity insti- tute are among the places to be visit- ed. It is likely that part of the class will go on May 14, Friday, and see "Hamlet" played, in which Miss Julia Marlowe appears.


Prof. W. B. Wilson expects to go to Topeka some time early in May to attend a meeting of the Kansas Athletic Conference, when the foot- ball question will be up for consider- ation by the Kansas denominational colleges. It is probable that the dele- gates will be guided to a great extent in their deliberations by the actions of the Missouri Conference which re- cently met in Kansas City.


Dr. W. S. Gordis left Thudsday for Chicago to attend the meeting of the Classical Association of the Middle West and South today. This is the largest association of classical lang- uage teachers in the country. Dr. Gordis is vice president for Kansas. He expected to return Monday.


The University orchestra went to Olathe last night to give a concert. This is the second out of town con- cert by the orchestra given this sea- sonn, the other one having been giv- en in Iola several weeks ago.


Arrangements have about been completed for the tour of the Uni- versity Campus male quartet to be- gin shortly after commencement. Miss Hallie Gasaway, reader, who is a graduate from the department of expression of Ottawa, will probab y accompany the quartet. Miss Gasa- way is one of the most pleasing and popular of readers.


Miss Grace Daniel, pianist, may also accompany the quartet.


The big telescape recently ordered by the Senior class as a memorial is expected any time. It was planned originally to have it here sooner, but there has been a delay at the factory in Ohio. If the telescope had been here last night it would have been used in a study of the planet Mercu- .ry.


Miss Caroline Medders, of the de- partment of expression, is getting the contestants ready for Freshman dec- lamation contests which will probably be held in the literary societies soon. There are about twenty-four contest-

How about your Campus subscrip- tion? Have you paid it yet ?


TALKED OF "WAR"


Rev. Jordan, of Congregational Church Gave an Interesting Lecture


Rev. W. T. Jordan lectured at the Congregational church last Sunday night on the subject of "War." He demonstrated by numerous illustra- tions, and from several points of view that war was uncivilized and was practically licensed murder. The lec- ture was attended by a large number of college students. Next Sunday evening, Rev. Jordan will lecture on another social question, "Environment and Heredity."


There are still some Campus sub- scriptions unpaid. See Manager or Editor today and pay yours if it is due.

election by legislative members of all important legislative committees.


The 1912 national convention at To- peka is resolved for.


E. W. Chafin, candidate of the pro- hibition party for president in the last campaign, took a swat at Gover- nor Stubbs and ex-Governor Hoch Wednesday night that could be heard echoing for quite a while.


"Governor Stubbs is a traitor to his party and instead of being com- mended, resolutions condemning him and his party had better be passed," said Mr. Chafin. Mr. Chaftn in speaking on the subject of "The Prohibition Partty," brought a scath- ing arraignment of both the demo- cratic and republican parties


"When did Stubbs become a prohi- bitionist ?" asked Mr. Chafin with some heat.


"When he had to," volunteered a prohibitionist in the audience.


"When did ex-Governor Hoch be- come a prohibitionist?" asked Mr. Chafin again. "He never did become one. He has always stood with the liquor interests. He pledged himself to stand with them, appointed C. W. Trickett attorney general, and was disappointed when Trickett enforced the prohibitory law to the best of his ability. Now Hoch is touring the country giving lectures under the auspices of the anti-saloon league," said the speaker.


Two hundred people, prohibition- ists and their sympathizers, sat down to the banquet at the skating rink Wednesday night. Three long tables were provided in the center of the room, and another running across the room at which the speakers sat The feed was scheduled for 7 o'clock,


was seated. It was about 9 before the program of toasts was reached.


Three of the prominent prohibi- tionists on for toasts were not pres. ent, National Chairman C. R. Jones, of Chicago, and A. E. Hedine, of Mc- Pherson, and C. W. Nelson, of Linds- borg. The latter was to preside. John Shields acted in his place and Intro- duced Ray Heritage, of the university who was toastmaster.


Dr. Rolvix Harlan, of Ottawa uni- versity, responded to the sentiment, "The Battle," in which he urged national constitutional prohibition E C. Hadley, of Kansas City, spoke on "The Ammunition," referring to the press, and referred to the part the newspaper has played in national reform. Miss Edna Woods, of the university of Ottawa, made a plea for women's suffrage


in her toast, "The Women." Wayne Gilliland spoke "Our Friends." John Shields responded to the toast, "The Young Men," the sub- ject assigned originally to Mr. Hedine He described the work of the young men in the state of Minnesota where the vote for the prohibition party has been raised from 4,000 to 55,000 in the last few years. Rev. W. C. Cady, pastor of the Baptist church in Kan- sas City, Kansas, who is a prominent field worker for the party, discussed "The Plans," outlining the aim of the party to elect congressmen and bring about sentiment in favor of a consti- tutional amendment for interestate commerce laws to prevent the ship- ping of liquor into dry states. He thinks the national prohibition party convention should be held west of the Mississippi river next time, and believes Kansas is the state that should get it. Mr. Chafin's address followed.
