SO
University Social Life.
l

The social life of the University of
Wisconsin is cared for in many ways.
1t is no small problem to wisely pro
vide satisfaction for the gregalious in
stincts of 200 students. Social life
there must be. How to meet the need
has been a study. The university has
few Official social functions. The
board of regents, to be true annually
apprCpriates a sum of money to be
used by the president in cultivating
the social life Of the students, but
it has been found almost impossible
to adequately meet the need in this
way. Society can not be abnormalIy
cultivated. University society above
all must De spontaneous but 1t must
also conform to all the whims and ira
ditions of the institution.
The fraternities largely represent
the Social set" Their parties and
other social features supply the needs
of their own members and in some
sense they do represent the social life
of the university, especially in inter
collegiate relations. The literary so
cieties, while primarily organized for
literary work, really bring the men to-
gether in convenient groups for social
functions. The Self Government assc-

sity are ipso facto members. gives

to get acquainted with the elder stu

The girls in Chadbourne hall, the la
dies dormitory, give regular recep-
tons to the young men by inviting
a certain number at stated periods.
Much home life is also being offered
to the girls BY the wives of leading
men of Madison opening their homes
for popular receptions.
Probably the most extensive and
most successful social events are
given by the two christian associa-
tions. These organizations are be.

held in the great gymnasium there

Death of Miss Moore.

1t is seldom we are called upon to
record as sad a death as that of Miss
Lucille Moore, which occurred at the
home of her brother, G. L. Moore, on
Saturday the 9th of April 1901. She
came on a visit from Ironton, Mo, her
home, and had been here just n
week when death ended her visit.
Friday evening was spent in pleasant
conversation with her relatives and
neighbors until bedtime. At 4 o'clock
in the morning she quietly and peace
fully left them, fully conscious OF her
approaching dissolution. Some two
years ago, Miss Lucille came to Alva-
RADIO and remained with her brother
nearly a year. Some time back she
was attacked with q severe spell of
Grippe which left her a physical wreck,
and she came to Texas, hoping that
our mild and health-giving climate
might restore her strength-but it was
not to be. Miss Moore was possessed
of a sweet and lovable disposition and
during her former visit won the love
and esteem of all with whom she be-
Game acquainted. No n who knew
her we'll, for a moment doubts her fit
ness for citizenship in that bright and
beautiful city to which she has been
called. A member of the Methodist
| Church she was considered a devoutly
pious girl, and for a long time had
been organist in her home cougrega-
ton at Ironton.
But now while other fingers may
wander over the familiar keys of her
long used instrument, she is drinking
in the notes of that heavenly organ
whose rich strains render vocal the
| wide realm of her celestial home. To
US it seems hard that a bright young
girl should be taken away just as life
begins to open up before her laden with
all the possibilities of q joyous and
useful career. Why, we may not
know now, but shall know hereafter
when 1--WE shall see her face to face.

Obituary.

Newton Hamilton Carr vas born in
Madison county, Va, August 2, 1925,
and died at the residence of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Ezra Elgan, near Ir~onton,
Mo-, May l, 1901.
Mr.. Garr's family moved from Vir-
ginia to Kentucky when he was about
seven years old, and for the greater
part of his life he resided in Kentucky,
near the city of Louisville. He served
under General Taylor in the Mexican
war, and loved to relate his experien-
ces of hat conflict. April 2, 1857 he
married Miss Brilla A. Yager, of Old
ham county, Ky. From this union
we're born six children, of whom two
survive-Oliver Carr, of Louisville,
KY, and Mrs. E. Elgan, of I~ronton,
Mo. Since the death of his wife in
1877 he spent the declining days of his
life with his children.
Mr.. Carr was descended from a
prominent German family. whose an
cestor, Jacob Carr, came to Pennsyl-
vania in 1880. to escape religious per-
secution. The family afterwards moved
to Virginia.
In early life he united with the Old
School Baptists at Portland, KY. De-
ceased was a man of strong convic-
lions and firm religious faith. During
his last illness several friends spoke to
him of his approaching end, and to all
he testified that his hope was bright,
and thai he had no fear Of death.
During his last illness kind neigh
bors and friends ministered to every
want and on Thursday May 2, 1901,
he was laid to rest in the new GENE
terry at Ironton, after an appropriate
funeral service at the Baptist church.
