After their graduation Messrs. Clement Chase and Daniel H. Wheeler, Jr., of Omaha, believing that a contest in oratory could bring only good results, offered a prize of ten dollars for the best oration, to which the society has added a second prize of five dollors. This was the first contest of the kind in the University, and its results have been very gratifying both to the society and to the authors and patrons of the movement. This year the prizes were doubled in recognition of its being the tenth annual Chase and Wheeler contest in oratory. Messrs. Chase and Wheeler were both present and participated in the program.
