where the main bolt passed out. Two
little children were sleeping only a

Bad Grammar at University.

A plan is on foot at1the University
of Kansas to raise the standard of
grammer among the undergraduates.
At the next meeting of the university
faculty it viii be suggested that when
ever two instructors make a report to
the register that a student is using
inferior grammer, such report will go
to the English department, and if the
student has credit in rhetoric such
credit shall be cancelled and before
the student can be. graduated he viii
have to go through the rhetoric course
a second time and make a satisfactory
grade. This action has been provoked
because so many of the upper class
men are using such phrases as she
has went and "I SEEN" The faculty
members who are advocating the new
rule say that it is bad advertisement
for the university to have a graduate
use inferior language.
