We welcome it nmong our exchanges.
The Philomathean ieoi'ew contains a continued story n
titled "The Silver Locket, or The Heir of Lowton Hall."
The Student returns thanks for the many kindnesses
received from tho editors throughout the State, and for
the intei est manifested in the University by tho different
papers.
Why is it that the Hillsdale Ilevald is not as good as
even the majority of other college journals? There is
a certain Jiigh-schooliih air about it Unit wo can not help
observing.
The January number of the Gleaner from Hcddlngs Col.
lge is one of the neatest and most complete among our
college exchanges. We commend the Gleaner as a pattern
college paper.
The last number ol the University rrcss contains a
piece of poetry clipped from the Century, and composed
by a student of the Wisconsin University, class '83. The
piece is entitled "Cupid's MistaK's" and is really a little
gem,"
The Sutton Register suggests that the Student bo pali
oni until the Hegents sac fit to elect a chancellor. The
Student has been reasonably "patient" during the past
six months on this subject but it seems to us that the time
has arrived when patience ceases to ho a virtue.
From Quebec comes the Moriu College Review, an cvs
ceedingly neat little paper ot eight pages, published
monthly by rive editois. The Review has something of
of the "checker braid" appearance, said by a certain exs
change to belong to tlioie papers which are tilled with
short paragraphs.
Another Norlhener is the Spectator, which contains a
lot of wonderfully old fashioned articles on antiquated
subjects. But we see a little notice of a Snow Shoe Club
and so we conclude that all the students are not frozen up'
We hope tlmt some of these live students will be fortunate
enough U obtain a place on the staff of the Spectator.
The December number of tho Kansas Review is of more
than usual interest. In it may be found matter to claim
the attention or every thoughtful reader aud at tho same
timeit is not lucking in spicy college news. If any of
our eastern colleges are inclined to "pooh" at Western
college journalism, w would like to point out to them
the Review as a sample of what the West can do.
The latest arrival on our table is the Student Visitor
We have tried in vain to make up our mind about it but
after all, are forced to "give it up." However, ,f you" are
looking for a discussion on any particular subject that
cannot be found any where else, it , probably in the
Vtiitor. The last number tells us all about Diphllie a
Spiritual Evolution, and other interesting things '
Miss Sally P.att McLean, whose first novel was fio
widely read has written another, entitled "TowTcad
I he young lady was formerly a student of the Wisconsin
State University. In her second novel .he describe, the
surroundings and customs of the University. The Uni!

Prof.: "Can you multiply together concrete num.

Pupil (triumphantly): "Hash I"
The Gray Jacket comes to us from Blacksbury, Ya.,
represonting tho agricultural and mechanical school at
that place. We cheerfully give this paper n place on our
table, at the same time trusting it will improve with ige.
Everybody tlmt Is, most every body seems glad to
sec the Sunbeam. It is always welcome on our table, and
though coming from the "cold, bleak north," brings with
it a certain cliecriuess and brightness that is quite exhiK
nrating.
A copy of tltc first issue of tho Frontier Student pub
lished at Gibbon, Nebraska,- reached our table this week,
The paper is small but well filled with good readable
matter, and strange to say but one advertisement. Wei
being the first college paper in the state, know what hard,
ships there arc to endure, and as a sister colloge paper wish
you success and prosperity.
How much a man is like, old shoos 1
For Instance, both n soul mny lost;
Doth have been tunned, both nro made right
By cobblers, both got loft and right;
...v.... iivi.ii . ai.uiv; iu uu VUIIIIJIUIU,
And both arc made to go on feet.
They both need healing; oft arc sold,
And both In time turn all to mold.
With shoes, tho last is first; with men,
The first shall be the last; and when
Tho shoes wear out they're mended now,
Aud when men wear out they're men dead, too.
They both are trod upon, and both
Will tread on others nothing loth.
Both have their tics nud both Incline
When polished In the world to shlno;
Aud both peg out and would you chooso
To be a man, or bo his shoes!

Simply unbearable.
Awkward and scarable,
Ought to be hazed young man.

To awfully wise young man,
A moustache his prize young man,

Carry a cane young man.

Bulldozing his creditor young man,

Witty and plucky,
Always in love young man.

How It will grieve ns I
