Last Sunday evening a Freshman Amateur Hour was presented at the Union. It went over well; doubtless many men wished that such informal class gatherings might be more frequent.

...gives the wife virtually the same civil status as the husband. It does not invalidate marriage contracts by which the bride can still sign away most of her rights, and say vexed French feminists: "With bridegrooms as hard to find as they are today, many brides will doubtless sign such contracts."

Second, graduate schools of journalism have not proved eminently successful in the past. The two chief schools at present, at Columbia and Missouri, doubtless produce capable men, but there is some question as to whether such men are sought after for newspaper jobs. Editors, it seems, still like to train their own men to fit their peculiar standards. For these two reasons, lack of proper finances and the questionable success of similar ventures, a Graduate School...
