two years hence, when they become Seniors- Thc Juniors. In their innocence and guilelessness, awed by the dignified Senors, magisterial profes- sors, old and musty law reports and legal tomes, large buildings and spacious halls, conscious only that they existed, the Juniors -they that will be some day-in September last picked up the warp and woof of the legal loom, from whence in 1902 they will take their ermine of justice. The Juniors are a very promising class, by no means small, and of no mean ability in oratory and ath- letics. The membership is made up from all the vocations and avocations of the business world 5 from all localities and sections of Kan- sas, and from without her confines, from Wfashington. Out of this bright array of young men, will arise some whose names will be emblazoned on 'the escutcheons of State and nation as men whom the people look up to and honor. Among whom, now mak- ing their embryonic glow, are Botts and Tolan on the Kansas-Missouri debate 3 Mow- rey in the Kansas-Colorado debate 5 Tucker and Moore in the football and baseball fields. C. C. Calkins, President, a. captain of the 21st Kansas Regiment in fthe Spanish- American YVar, M. P. Sea.ttle, Vice-Presi- dent, Thos. P. Stewart, Secretary, and R. H. Elder, Treasurer, are the oliicers who man- age the following Juniors when they meet as a class and talk over the times 'they will have Oklahoma, Missouri, Colorado, Montana, Alphin, Clide Harry.

Literary and Quasi-Literary. The 'Law School atfords abundance of op- portunities for the would-be lawyer to exer- cise and regulate his powers of speech and pleading, and it is well that it is thus, as no one has more occasion for different kinds of talks on various topics and in many divers places than has the lawyer. He needs, above everything else, to cultivate thought, expres- sion, and address. The various clubs and societies where he may receive these prac- tical qualities, are the Kent Club, moot court, practice and pleading courrt, the elocution de- bating clubs, and the Adelphic. The Kent Club, the literary society of the Law School, was organized about the time the Department of Law was made a part of the University. It has come down through these many years with varying degrees of success, but it is now firmly established, and has become one of the fixtures of the school. The club meets Friday afternoons, and not only discusses legal and current topics, but also renders a general literary programme. Here are developed the Laws who repre- sent the University in the interstate debates. All students of the Law School, are members of the Kent Club, and the only requisite for active membership is attendance art the regu- lar meetings. During the first year the Juniors are re- quired to take Elocution and Oratory. One of the requirements as outlined for the first half-year is the organization of debating clubs of not more than twelve members each. These clubs meet once a week, and render a general literary programme, but make de- bating and original talks a specialty. Since the membership in each club is limited, every one is on the programme for something each Week. Another aid in enabling to tl1e Juniors to lay away their swaddling-clothes and reach the age capable to make valid contracts for more than necessaries, is the moot court work, under the supervision of Dean Green and Prof. Higgins. This court meets twice a week, and at each session a statement of facts is alleged and the legal effect is ar- gued, the argument being based on the law as found in the text-books, and decisions of the courts as found in the reports. Each case has four lawyers, two on each side, and the experience and practice in looking up cases and the law upon different questions is verv valuable. The Seniors are haunted in their dreams by visions of legal blanks, filled and untilled. For them a practice and pleading court is provided, presided over by Dr. Burdick. The Iirst half-year the course consists of lectures by the county ofiicers and practicing attor- neys well learned in the profession, upon the duties and manner of procedure in their re- spective ofHces, and the mode of procedure in carrying a case through the Justice of the Peace Court, and up to the State Supreme Court. The second half of the year is spent upon the various legal blanks in use in the State, and their various requ'iremen't's and legal effect are discussed. During the clos- ing weeks of the school year an actual case is prepared for the criminal docket, is filed, and a jury summoned. All the various steps and pleadings are gone through with, as in actual practice, and the Code and usual rules. gov- erning the proceedings in the District Courts
