The associa tion recognizing the vast number of students an Lincoln and vicinity, has determiaed to have a students day, on which admission will be cut in two for all students. This would be a good occasion for the U. of X, to turn out en masse with scarlet and creana. Mrs. Hendee, formerly Miss Elizabeth Russell of the U. of N., was a welcome vis itor at the Y. W. C.

For the first time in the history of our University one of its graduates has been given a position at Harvard. Mr. Geo. W. Botsford 'S4-, has been appointed a lecturer in Greek history at that institution. Mr. Botsford was for some time a professor of Greek at Bethney, West Virginia, and his selection as one of the Harvard professors is only an acknowledgment of his conscienci entions hard work and the thoroughness of his preperation. Mr. Emerson McNitt, whom students will remember as one of the strongest advocates for the University appropriation among the members of the last legislature, has his picture in the September Arena. Mr. McUitt was one of the leading workers for the social purity law which finally passed the legisla ture in a form entirely satisfactory to the league which hits this -work in hand. It is in connection with this bill that a very com plimentary sketch of him is given. We should all feel proud of Mr. McSitt for he was one of us a few years ago. "What on earth! Gee whiz!
