Tho lady editors of the Hamilton College Monthly but
voice the sentiment of bygone days. The idea that

The Courier thinks the people of Lawrence are not so
good as they might be. It complains of a lack ol board
ing houses, and especially of the better class; also of a
superabundance of price. The state of Kansas should
know belter than to establish so great an institution in
the country, when there are two or three cities lying
around loose.
The question going the rounds of the college press is
as to whether humorous itemfi taken from other than
college papers should bo published in college journals.
"We would be pleased to see the "funny" part of the college

rehashed, inflated by addition from such ordinary hu
morous papers as the Hawkeye, Free Press, etc., and
spread before our tired eyes once in two weeks. Oh,
give us a rest!
