The plan under consideration is to have these two assistants for each position, learn the work Avith the un- derstanding one of the two assistants for each office will he elected for the post by the class next year. This plan is being used in a number of colleges and high schools and it is bringing great results. In previous years the most difficult work for the board in getting out an annual has been learning first how to do the Avork. Under this plan the officers will have had one j ear's experience thus making the publication effort much less. A meeting of the sophomore class has been called for Thursday at 12:4i5 to discuss the proposition and Collegiate News Is Due by Saturday at 9 a, m.—Assist Us Stetson students and professors wishing to get news in the Collegiate are requested to assist the News Editor in getting the paper ready for publication by having all news to the Collegiate office not later than 9 a. m. Saturday. Only the most important items will be admitted later than that hour. This must be done in order to make sure the paper will be on :he campus promptly. ELECTED PRESIDENT The Stetson Glee club will probably do a lot toward helping dr'aw new students here next year, and a characteristic song used in the program in other towns Avill aid in this work, it is thought. Mrs., Kenefick, director of the club, is anxious to have a large number of pieces submitted, by which means it is hoped to get an excellent piece of work.

The officers are particularly anxious to have the entire membership present, for it is desired that the decision represent the voice of the entire body. Something which has never occurred before in Stetson university took place in the law department Thursday when Mrs. A. R. Barnes was elected president of the senior law class of which she is the only Avoman member, there being 18 men in the class. Mrs. Barnes was considerably shocked Avhen the decision was finally announced as she stated "she had never been popular and she thought only popular persons Avere elected to this post." Contrary to Mrs. Barnes' statement, she is popular on the campus, 'being well-liked by the students in contact with whom she comes. This is the second year Mrs Barnes has been on the Stetson campus and completes her law study here this spring. Covington, football star and member of the Sigma Nu fraternity, Avas elected vice president. D. M. Cook was elected secretary-treasurer. o — MUSIQ DEPARTMENT TO HAVE RECITAL Mrs. Kenefick, Director, Announces First of Season Series Stetson's music department will give its first public recital in Elizabeth Hall chapel Oct. 31, according to an announcement by Mrs. Kenefick, director, this week.

Disturbances in the region of Chaudoin hall brought the meeting to a rather abrupt ending. o US Note—This column will run each week until every dormitory on the campus is 100 per cent in subscriptions for the Stetson Collegiate.
