has been an exceedingly uull week III
Laramie. Frontier day in Cheyenne
attracted a large crowd from here, and
celebration had such a good time that
they haven't returned yet. Those who
visited friends were fortunate, as the
city was so crowded that it a well
nigh impossible to get hotel accommo-
dations. Those who have returned
from Cheyenne speak in the highest
terms of the success of the celcbra-
ton.
Vacation time is over and it is al
ready getting too cool for camping
parties and picnics. The university
will open next week. and 500 the fall
and winter festivities will begin. One
of the first social events in which the
university people will be interested is
| the annual reception. This is given
by the old students in honor of the
newcomers, both students and profess
| sors. and is always a most enjoyable
affair. 1t is expected that the recep-
| ton this year will be held very soon
| after the opening of school, so that
the new students may become &C
quainted and be made to eel at home
as soon as possible. A delightful fea-
ture of university life this winter will
be the informal receptions held on Fri.
day evenings at st. Matthew's dormi-
tory. Here the young ladies may re-
ceive their friends in the large p~arlors,
and jolly times are anticipated.
