The Butler Collegian The Butler Collegian is the so-called official organ of Butler College. Its policy IS governed by the editor, subject to the oversight of the faculty. It was founded in 1886 as a monthly literary magazine and was pub- lished by the five literary societies of the college . In 1899 The Collegian became a news weekly as at present, with a monthly literary supplement which has been discontinued. This was a step, according to the editor at that time toward the final goal of journalism, a daily journal. I ' his final goal has not yet been reached, although there are those who still hope to see the day when Butler College can issue a daily newspaper. [29]

Young Women ' s Christian Association The past year has been the most prosperous in the history of the Butler College Young Women ' s Christian Association. The meetin gs have been unusually interesting and well attended. The meetings each week have been of various kinds — several of musical nature, Bible study, reports of the foreign missionary field, and plans for our Geneva delegates. The girls have taken a deeper interest in the Christamore Settlement and have taken charge of several classes there. The annual doll show was held before the holidays and the dolls with proceeds derived from the show were presented to the Settlement. The social side of the Association has not been neglected. In addi- tion to the usual joint reception in the fall, spreads have been held in the Y. W. C. A. rooms at various times. The Mission Study Class is progressing and has an average atten- dance of fifty members. This class is under the leadership of Professor C. T. Paul. ■ [. 1]
