The School of Oratory and Physical Culture of Southwest Kansas College. During the coming school year, The Oratorical Association of Colleges of the state of Kansas will hold its annual contest with the Southwest Kansas College, at this place. Inasmuch as a change in the chair of oratory was to be made, the authorities of S.

K. C. were awake to the importance of securing a superior teacher in this im-partant year. They have such a person in Prof. Franklin L.

Gilson, B. of West Union, Iowa. Prof. Gilson is a graduate of the Up- per Iowa University at Fayette, Iowa, with the degree of B. making his specialty, during his college course, the study of oratory, under teachers from the Cumnock School of Oratory, the Columbia School of Oratory, and the Emerson School of Oratory.

After graduation from Upper Iowa University, Prof. Gilson took special work in the Cumnock School of Oratory, at Evanston, 111., a department of North Western University, from which school he was graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Oratory. The authorities have the best assurance from Prof. Cumnock, Pres. Benton of Upper Iowa University, and others, of the superior excellence of Mr.

Gilson 's work. In public reading his work has always been very successful; he has studied, however, with a special view to teaching. He aims to teach expression in its broadest sense; a correct and refined pronunciation of the English language; a clear interpretation of the best literature, and an easy and dignified appearance. The prospects are good for a splendid School of Oratory and many students who have not previous! taken the work have expressed an intention of going into it this year. Joined in Wedlock.
