Whitman College Notes.

At the midwintcr meeting of the
Associated Students held recently,
reports from the several student or
CARNATIONS were presented and
speeches made by the managers OF
the spring activities. The offer of
silver cup was announc ed for
inter-class competition in track
athletics, the cup to be awarded
to the class securing the greatest
number of points in the spring
track meet.
Prizes were also announced as
having recently been made to
stimulate interest in oratory. The
winner of the local competition
has the honor of representing
Whitman in the intercollegiate ora
torical contest of the northwest,
Grafton for thought and composition
will receive SIS, and the best de-

A question: If there is more
liquor sold where there are no sa-
looms than where there are, would
brewers, distillcrs, and wholesale
dealers, who own about IS per cent
of all saloons, pay license, lent,
taxes, insurance, attorneys fees
and contribute large sums of money
TO influence the press, to publish
and distribute literature and in
other ways to obtain license, all to
lessen the amount of their sales ?
Would the liquor men now be main
tanning five national organizations
at heavy expense to oppose all pro-
hibitory measures if such measures
did not interfere with the traffic?
That was indeed most remark
able thing that occurred in Washing
ton recently, when former Senator
| John B. Henderson, for many years
the owner of one of the finest
private wine-cellars in the capital,
brought up all these costly wines,
and in public poured it into the
sewer as an evidence of his reform.
Other favorable circumstances at
tend this splendid act: One is
that his wife was the evangelist
that converted him to this deci-
sion. Mrs. Henderson had been
an active temperance worker, and
though she was not allowed to walk
to the polls and use her influence
with the ballot, she was not cast
down, but went to work on the one
nearest her, and by bringing hin
around did possibly as much good a:
she would have done had she bus
led herself with others. Another
good feature attending this reform
according to report, is that thes,

bear on others in high places a

HOSTESS AND GUEST.

An acceptance or regret should
be worded in the same manner as
was the invitation. A formal in
vitation requires a foraml accept
ance, a note demands note in re-
turn.
A thoughtful guest will have
piece of embroidery to finish dur
ing visit, then it seems but a
graceful little thought to leave it
with the hostess as reminder, and
the festal board of the entertainer
is richer for her little stay.
At an afternoon tea or reception,
only those ladies who are invited to
help their hostess receive her guests
remove their hats. Othres may
have their wraps in the dressing
room, but keep hats and gloves on
as when calling.
