Summer Session Offers Varied Musical Programs
For those who seek cultural values as well as academic credit, the University offers an unusual group of musical programs this summer which students of the Summer session should not miss.
The concerts given Sunday were typical of the type of program which is to be heard frequently throughout the session. Each Sunday throughout the six-week period of its existence, the Mid-Western music students will present a band and orchestra concert. Under the leadership of University faculty members, as well as dintinguished guest leaders, the high school students, the cream of the state, will offer some of the best in music.
In addition to the concerts provided, a group of recitals by the faculty of the school of fine arts, a recital by the outstanding students of that department and the music camp students, has been promised.
Every Summer session student will do well to make a "date" with himself to attend many of these worthwhile musical programs.
Backs Kansas Industrial Development
in a haphazard way more or less, for the past decade, there have been attempts to publicize Kansas. Until the recent census, which showed a definite drop in population, however, nothing officially had been done about it. The recent legislature authorized the organization of a committee, to be known as the Kansas Industrial Development Commission, to seek out and attract new industries and activities to Kansas.
This commission has already begun its work, both in Kansas and abroad, and the newspapers of the state are cooperating in a series of advertisements, calling to the attention of the readers, the fine possibilities available to prospective manufacturers and industries.
This is a move which every loyal Kansan might well support. You, as an individual, probably do not know any industrial magnate, but you can see that your friends in other states are appraised of the possibilities here in the Sunflower state. Keep the possibilities of the state foremost in their minds in every letter you write.
Join in the photograph contest which is being sponsored by the commission, and even though you may not win the coveted cash prizes, you will have the satisfaction of having contributed something which may be of help in putting the commission's message across.
In the language of the baseball fan, "Let's Talk it up."
Wichita-Air Capital
Wichita is again making a bid to restore its claim to be "The Air Capital." Congressman Jack Houston has introduced a bill in congress which will provide ten million dollars for the creation of air-experiment stations. There are several items in favor of Wichita as one of the three locations to be selected.
Among them are its central location, its easy accessibility from all points of the country, and the terrain for landing; It is already on major airlines and its city government and chamber of commerce are air-minded, so much that they are willing to give a $75,000 site for the station. Not only will this station be
a good thing for Wichita, but it will give Kansas a new point of importance in the nation's defense program.
A recent agreement between Governors Ratner and Phillips, of Oklahoma, regarding interstate transportation by highway, in which the trucks of each state will be relieved of buying tags in the state in which they are transients, provided they have complied with their own state laws, will make that problem much easier. Frequent arrests and overcharges on the part of officials in each state has made difficulty many times in the past few years, and it is hoped that future administrations will abide by the Ratner-Phillips agreement.
A recent issue of Fortune leaves Kansas off the map as far as national transcontinental highways mentioned. Likewise, no places of interest are shown. Looks as though the state should hire a Broadway press agent to put us on the map.
Thomas Marshall said this country needed a good five-cent cigar. If inflation comes, what we'll be needing is a good five-cent nickel.
Trouble With Street Markers
Facing Carries Karsen
Inter, Summer Sessure.
After living inience for four years, I know my street address. I once spent thirty minutes looking for a house on a hill which is not incipiousic (neither the house nor the hill). Courteous people gave us directions—but what good did it do? They sounded like a grader with a limited knowledge of geography and the ability to name the North American states. We didn't know we weren't following their advice until we stoned in a blind alley.
It must be confusing to youngsters to learn the relative positions of Massachusetts and Indiana and later find out they were all wrong.
Not complaining about the names of the streets, I do wonder if they could be marked in a few more places. If a person finds the correct spot there is a sign that tells the name of the street. But who cares to invite an unnecessary knock in the motor looking for it.
Once there was a college town, bigger than Lawrence, that had the name of the street painted on the curb at every intersection. When I go back to that town, I shall tell the city commissioners what wonderful men they are—M. D.

tween chlorine and hydrocarbons in an effort to produce usable products from materials now wasted.
Both of these men started work July 1. Applicants for the other three projects are being considered by the committee.
The committee which administers the fellowships as appointed by former Chancellor E. H. Lindley includes Chairman Stouffer, F. T. Stockton, dean of the Business School; Ivan C. Crawford, dean of the Engineering School; R. C. Moore, professor of geology; and H. P. Cady, professor of chemistry.
'Manners Make Men'--for young men Teachers and boys' advisers in high school and college who are here for the Summer Session will find it an ideal book to take back to their respective schools, as a sane and sensible reference, and the answer to questions young men of high school and college age are asking about how to act in public.
Witan Publication Is Popular School Reference
---Makes Men Mannered
Educators and the press as a whole have praised it widely as a "cue for the young man in matters of etiquette." Superintendents of schools, deans of women and college professors, Boy Scout executives and HiY club secretaries have praised it highly. Recommended as "must" reading by many superintendents, the books have already been placed in several high school libraries.
Something for the boys back home—that's the book on social and human behavior, in more or less mid-western civilized form, entitled "Manners Make Men," and published by the University of Kansas Witan, to show the way of good manners for young men.
Just what is this "Manners Make Men"? What has it got that Emily Post hastn't? Well, in the first place, the book answers a lot of questions in common-sense midwestern fashion which Emily doesn't even mention. Written largely in the vernacular of an older brother, it gives tips on how to dress, what to wear, personal habits, getting along with the family, and with the roommate, appearance and activities in public, table lore, introductions, conversation, and a dozen other "down to earth topics" which Emily never even thought of.
Written by a group of young men here at the University for private use of the Witan organization, its practicability, common-sense and standards of conduct was the answer to a demand by all of the organizations on the campus, and as soon as the word spread around, became sought after in others quarters as well. Consequently, the first edition was revised, several chapters were added, and the second edition appeared in book form. The second reprint of this second edition is now being offered to the public.
Used By Many Schools
One of the most sensible divisions of the book, which should have a special appeal to high school students, is the all-important subject "With Her." The book doesn't tell one how to sweep his girl off her feet, but it does give some excellent guides to conduct which will enable him to ask- and get—a second date if he desires it. Emphasis is placed
on personal habits, such as clean teeth, well-groomed hair, neat dress, the proper clothes; the technique of asking for a date, where to go and what to do, and other timely aids to enhance the boy's prospects with the girl.
George Washington's Rules
Included in the edition is an appendix which gives George Washington's rules of conduct and similar quotations from Lincoln, Jefferson, Emerson, and others.
Another fine section of this appendix is the one headed "Nineteen things I wish I had known before I was Twenty-One" and includes extremely sensible advice which probably won't be taken by those of the teen age, but which might be beneficial if they were considered.
For instance, Rule No. 2: That my health after 30 depended in a large degree on what I put in my stomach before I was 21; and Rule No. 5: That a man's habits are mighty hard to change after he is 21; or Rule No. 9: That the world would give me just about what I deserve. Other rules include the folly of not taking older people's advice. that dad wasn't an old fogy after all; and that most things mother wanted me to do were right.
There is plenty to be enthusiastic about in this book. It capably fills a needs in the life of a high school boy as one who has come to college, and its addition to a school library will mean a wise expenditure on the part of any school executive. Lively and readable, and never prosy, every high school boy—and most girls for that matter—will consume it avidly when it comes to their attention.
Brockelbank and Bride To Leave Lawrence Saturday on Honeymoon
The marriage of Miss Naomi Campbell to W.J. Brockelbank, professor of law, took place at the home of Miss Agnes Emery, Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Rev. Joseph King of the Plymouth Congregational church officiated.
Mrs. Brockelbank is a member of Alpha Omicron Pi, social sorority, and Psi Chi, honorary psychology sorority. She taught several years in the Kansas City schools before receiving her B.S. in education at the University.
Dr. and Mrs. Brockelbank will leave Saturday for a two months tour of Europe. They will be at home at the Emery apartments in Lawrence after September 17.
THIS IS NO FISH STORY!
However when the people who tell the story about the angler who snagged a lantern with the wick still burning — when they blow out the light in the lantern then we'll cut the size of this fish.
Many people do the same with automobiles and the products they use to run them. Why not let FRITZ and Cities Service Products service your car. Then it won't be necessary for drivers to tell 'tall' stories about car performance — no burning wicks — no exaggerated fish.
