journalistic. In the fall of 1894 the then Senior Class cf but forty-seven members were seized with the desire to herald abroad the fame of their beloved institution, and being of an adver- tising turn of mind, they resolved to pub- lish a monthly journal under the name of the Kansas Lawyer. XV hen the Kansas Lawyer was started, there were sages and prophets who predicted for it a short career, and when it was launched on the turbulent waves of life. the world laughed and said: tfOh, you foolish builders! it can never survive. The.storms it must encounter will cast it upon the hid- den shoals. Venture not or all will be lost. But, undaunted by reproach, it darted into the waters of experience. XVinds blew, waves dashed, but how fearless it rode! for the storms came but from the mouths of the Arts and the waves they caused to dash were but the light, foamy spray of an eifervescent jealousy. y Greater intercst is continually being mani- fested in the Lawyer, both by the staff and by the members of the bar. The great aim of the staff is to secure contributions from men of prominence and authority in the legal profession. Among those who have aided ,us in this way are the names of Judge C. L. Dobson, of Kansas City, Mo., E. D. Ken- na, of Chicago, Ill., Stephen H. Allen, ex- Associate Justice of the State Supreme Court, Henry C. Caldwell, United States Circuit Judge, of Little Rock, Ark.5 and Associate Justice David J. Brewer, of XVashington, D. C. This year the staff-officers are as follows: Editor-in-Chief: Otto Sump. Assita-nt : Lorne E. Gartley. Associate Editors : J. A. Overlander, R. E. Everett J. H. Tolan, L. M. Gensman. 7 Local Editors: E. P. Rochester, J. H. McGraw. Treasurer: Margaret E. Casey. ' Business M aaagers: Otto Sump, Acting, Hale R. Hamilton Owing to circumstances, the writer has been compelled to assume the duties of busi- ness manager as well as those of editor-in- chief. It has been a most burdensome duty to issue the ten numbers, involving much time and work, but we feel more than repaid by the experiencewe have gained. But the time has now come when we must consign the management of the Lawyer to the hands of anotherg when, after two years of pleas- ant association, the first year as assistant editor, and this year in the present capacity, we must bid it adieu.

are followed as to matters of law and fact. Lastly, but not least, is the Adelphic Lit- erary Society. This is not a Law School or- ganization, but as the Laws dominate and have kept it alive, it may very properly be classed as a quasi-legal institution. The Adelphic had its beginning during the time when literary societies were important fact- ors in the University life, a time so long in the past that the 'fmemory of man runneth not to the contrary. This society has sur- vived the attacks and rebulfs of these inter- vening years-a 'reminder of those halcyon days when to be at member of a literary so- ciety Was an honor. Perhaps the credit for its continued existence and its rehabilitation each year is due 'to the Law School more than any other department. The society meets every Friday evening in Fraser Hall, and has a large membership and attendance.
