and the home touches along with
| them They simply cannot hold

ter how engrossed they are in the up
lift nor how intense and single their
! purpose to reform humanity at one
fell swoop. At all their meetings they
have little music, and usually there

| The Shawnee County Political Science
| club, in spite of it's business-lilze name,
| is no exception. The club is having a
rug made for the rostrum of its as
Sembly room in the National hotel,
and some other home touches are be-
ing planned for the room. The club
| holds its meetings regularly at the no
| tel, for the purpose of studying polit-
| ica1 subjects. 1t is their aim to under
stand the present system of govern
ment in its various departments, with
| out regard to the partisan aspect of it.
| The next meeting of the club will be
an evening session, open to all who
wish to attend it, and the speaker will
| be one of the professors from the
State university.
