GREAT SCIENTISTS MUST BE
SALESMEN, SAYS BANCROFT
Los Angeles—A great scientist must also be a great salesman if he wants his discovery to be understood and welcomed in his own time. This idea was advanced at the dedication of the Science Hall of the University of Southern California by Prof. Wilder D. Bancroft of Cornell University.
Professor Bancroft said that a new discovery is accepted for one of four reasons. It is accepted because it is made by a man of recognized authority or of personal magnetism, because it clears up points over which people have puzzled or because it shows what to do next, because of extensive proofs, or because the results are useful or striking.
EDUCATION DOES NOT END WITH SCHOOL, SPEAKER SAYS
Pittsburg. - A passion to know the truth for the student is the teacher's aim, stated Dr. John A. Lapp, director of social sciences, Marquette University, Milwaukee, in an address at the Kansas State Teachers College here yesterday.
True education does not end at the school door, stated the speaker, but continues through life. People must learn to continue learning or live a living death. Education has not been fully tried, Doctor Lapp said. When it reaches the great masses of the people, he believes it will solve many of the economic problems of today.
Slab Completed North of Iola
Iola—The 14,000-foot concrete slab project north of Iola has been entirely completed, and was opened to traffic several days ago. The project was part of a program authorized by the state to utilize emergency federal aid funds set aside to relieve unemployment.

"Hey, Water Jack, Oh, Water Jack! Some ladies are lookin' for you."
Jack, a toweled-headed youngster of about 15 years appeared a few minutes later from the midst of surrounding debris, swinging his pall nonchalantly. He was not in the least embarrassed to see two young women—evidently waiting for water. He found, however that they were not after water at all but merely looking for a "little" water boy named "Jack," whom they expected to interview for the Kansas. What they actually found was a grown up lad who turned out to be a senior in high school and whose name was no Jack at all but Robert—Rob Russell Bob is the son of F. A. Russell, professor of railway engineering at the University of Kansas.
"Comin'," called a boyish voice from the other side of the new student hospital under construction. "Be there in a minute."
Bob has just returned to his job after a two weeks vacation and he found that while he was absent the workmen on the new hospital had suffered during the hot weather for the want of a competent water boy. He learned also that two other carriers had worked while he was gone and that neither had been quite so efficient as he. As a matter of fact Bob was greeted with rejoicing upon his return.

Busy Waterboy Grants Interview but Is Promptly Recalled to Duty
Young Russell waters his co-workers every twenty minutes from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. According to Bob, the men drink profusely when they are pouring concrete, but at ordinary work and on moderately cool days they do not require quite so much.
HAVE IT DONE NOW!
"Don't forget to tell them about me!" This from a burly broad-shouldered fellow who Bob explained was "Tarzan." "Tarzan" is a pre-law at the University, coming to Kansas from Vermont.
"Perhaps you can tell us something about 'Tarzan?' suggested the two young ladies.
"I'm afraid 'Tarzan' or the stories he tells would not do for print," Bob answered with a smile.
The water, so the interviewers learned, is supplied from Blake hall and is ice cooled—if the ice man arrives in time. If he does not come at the right time, Bob's day becomes extremely difficult, for the men prefer ice water.
'Hey, Water, 'Jack,' Oh, Water,
'Jack.' 1

Evidently the 20 minute rest period which Bob usually spends in shoveling sand, had come to a close, for with a nod to his visitors, he picked up his bucket and sauntered off in the direction of the shout.
