Society Tit-Bits.

Mrs. j. G. Jones treated a few of
her literary friends on the evening of
Good Friday to a delightful lunch
con.
Mrs. Defoe on Friday, and Mrs.
Thilly on Saturday, entertained in
modest but elegant style, a limited
number of the University professors.
The LAS You Like 1t" card club
held it's regular monthly meeting on
Friday last with Miss Lucy Garth.
The game for the evening was six
handed euchre. The prizes, a cut
glass vase and a gold picture frame,
were won by Miss Freda Levy, a
guest of the club, and Miss Carey
Mountjoy. AS a reward for hard
work the club was served with a
dainty lunch of chicken salad, potato
chips, olives, beaten biscuits and
punch. Though the name "As You
Like It," doubtless has reference to
Shakespearean times, the club is
twentieth century and American; it
is evident that these young ladies do
not wish to be so closely identified
with the romantic creature of Shake
speare's imagination as to forget how
to eat. Next month the club meets
with Miss Virginia Dyas.
Last Friday evening a pair of cler-
zeal legs were seen to vanish up the
stairway of Phi Cams hall where
Miss Iglehart's dancing school was
in session. But i'm shorter time than
it takes to tell it, they reappeared,
this time propelled by the righteous
Indignation of their owner, clearing
five steps at a time, and collecting
an impetus that carried him whiz-
zing two blocks down the street.
Miss Pitman opened her doors II
few nights ago to a party of her
friends. The entertainment provid-
was ingenius, a game at bean-bag
and a candy pull.
The crowd of young dancers that
met in Stones hall last Tuesday eve
ming had no leader but their own de-
termination for a good time. The
room and the music had been hastily
arranged for, the chaperones snatch
ed at the last minute from their fire
sides. AS sc often happens with
imprOmptu affairs, this dance, so far
as pure enjoyment is concerned, was
the succes of the season; and if the
wave of disappointment that swept
through the hall at the twelve
o'clock warning or the eXtravagant
adjectives of the ladies as they came
streaming through the door way
meant anything, the boys must
have felt gratified with the outcome
of their enterprise.
1t is a queer commentary on Col
umbia society that the girls at the
band dance Monday evening were in
the minority, Notwithstanding the
precaution taken by the boys to
make extra charge for a gentleman
coming without his lady. Mr.. and
Mrs. Jerould and Mr.. and Mrs. Med
ermeyer acted as chaperones for the
evening.

SOME people have an idea that
no one will know how much they
know unless they are constantly
telling it on the street and in pub

has passed and the individual who

Meeting of Seniors.

Last Saturday evening President
Jesse called a meeting of the Univer-
sity seniors and both criticised and
advised with reference to their ac-
tons, past, present and future.
The President thought the seniors
ought to exert Il wider influence;
ought to contribute more toward
wholesome University life. He said
at Princeton and Yale the senior was
looked up to as a leader, n really
great man. That seniors ought to so
deport themselves that their inferi-
ors in rank would naturally look to
them as leaders and fit examples.
What the President said was with
due Difference to those below the sem
Tor. The superior in rank is not bet
! ter but ought to be better fitted to
lead. The classes this year were not
inferior to classes sent out from here
in former years and so far as students
were concerned were not inferior to
any in the country. He said reforms
in this respect were necessary to
keep up with the schools progress
otherwise. 1t is q fine University
and 1t is the duty of students to con-
tribute more life to its public occas-
sions.
DR.. Jesse said that the students
ought to contribute more life to Com
mencement week. He was sorry that
ordinarily the University Com
mencement was a dry affair and he
invoked aid of the students to help
TO mend matters. Many diversions
We're suggested but the dance was
discouraged. He SAID Monday and
Tuesday were generally very dry
days and he thought the classes
ought to be able to redeem them.
Seniors in nearly all Universities.
the President suggested, have class
days. A baseball game is frequently
given, the greatest of the year. Com
petitive drills often add much to the
enjoyment of the Commencement
occasion. Senior classes frequently
give themselves a breakfast and have
a general class reunion before break.
ing ranks. The students sometimes
at other Universities provide some
special entertainment at track ath,
%letics, give a musicale, etc. He was
going to expect the students to dc
something to help break the monot'
ony of Commencement.
The Doctor took another shot al
cheating, saying he invoked the as,
sistance of all students that wished
the school purged of the evil. He
said he had taken a solemn VOW t.
fight cheating till it departed from
the University. He said he wa'
proud of the students as "A body anC
would not be willing to trade witt
other states even though they do 60
awry sometimes on Friday night
The President frankly admitted how
ever, he didn't love them all.
The seniors represented at The
meeting We're lawyers, academies anC
engineers. Nine engineers occupied
the parquet to the left; twenty-sevel
academies occupied the parquet OIL
the right, while twenty-nine lawyers
sat in Stephens College addition
The evening rains prevented a fulle
representation but it is not at all un
likely that some reforms will be in
a%ugurated as n result of the Presi
dents timely remarks.

NATIONAL BANKING SYSTEM.
Lectures by Prof. Joseph F. Johnson
Thursday and Friday.

Professor Joseph French johnson lee
tured Thursday and Friday afternoons be-
fore the School Of Comparative Juris-
prudence and Diplomacy Of Columbian
University upon the National Banking
system and proposals for its amendment
He showed tina, the National Bank note
was at present a useless appendix TO our
currency system. for the volume Of notes
issued never bears any relation TO the
needs Of business The national bank,
under the present system. could not ar
ford to issue notes in response to tenn
pOrary increase in the need for a medium
Of exchange, for II they did so they would
have on their hands. after the emergency
was over, a supply Of notes which they
could not keep in circulation. and since
these notes, would represent capital tied
I'D in bonds at a low rate Of interest,
the banks would suffer a positive loss.
This loss. he pointed out, would amount
to more than 3 OF per cent upon the
face Of the notes, for with cash in its
vaults in place OF notes a bank might ex-
pand its discount and deposits to the OK
tent OF four or five times the amount Of
cash.
Professor johnson held that reform Of
the bank note system must be gradual.
No plan providing for the Immediate is
sue of notes based on assvt~ .0Gld be
safely adopted because both bankers and
the public are unfamiliar with such notes
and so would lack confidence in their Sc
curity.
The issue OF bank notes secured by as
sets must be accompanied by a branch
bank system, for in no other way can
adequate redemption facilities be Great

of very large capital. each being re

agencies in ten or more different parts
