Geo. O. Foster Found Estes Park to be a Natural Refrigerator
OTHERS ARE NOT DETERRED
Some of University Colony Leave Next Week, While Some Will Wait Until August One
Students and professors on the hill of Oread are not the only ones who have been experiencing the chill of a belated winter. Letters from Registrar George O. Foster, who with his wife and baby left some time ago for Estes Park, Colo., on joyful vacation bent, indicate that conditions there are calculated to be a June vacation anything but joyful.
Mr. Foster writes that it has rained or snowed every day since they arrived and that the mountains surrounding Estes Park are covered with snow. The Fosters have strenuous objections to living in a natural refrigerator. Wherefore they left Estes Tuesday for Colorado Springs. They will stop over there a few days and then return to "sunny Kansas."
Nothing daunted by these communications, a large number of K. U. people who have summer cottages at Estes, are continuing their preparations for the annual vacation hegira thitherward. However they are going to wait till July and August and give the Rockies a chance to warm up to an accommodating temperature. Professor and Mrs. Bushong, R. E. Melvin and family, and C. F. Squires and wife intend to leave sometime before the middle of July. Professor Higins and family of Julia in their cottage about August 1, while W. D, Brownell, Dean Blackmar, Prof. R. R Price and family, Prof. W. H. Johnson and family and Chancellor Strong and family will leave for the mountains immediately after the close of the Summer School session. Wm. Allen White and family of Emporia to Estes Park August 7. Altogether there will be a colony of about 7 or 100 K. U. people at the park this summer.

In a recent address made to the South Carolina Press Association, Dr Joseph F. Siler of the Thompson-McFadden Commission and who is studying the pellagra for the New York Post-Graduate Hospital, apologize to many men who publish any lurid stories of the effects of pellagra on the victim.
Dr. Slier stated that the report has been printed that those afflicted with this disease often become insane and lose their minds, and as a result those who get the disease often lose their reason by being scared into it through the reports which they have read.

A Sad, Sad Story Composed by the Linotype Man After Hours.
A short-story student was reading the directory of students in the last issue, of the Summer Session Kansaan. Names always had been a mania with him. This is the way his narrative the next day was affected by what he read
"Elele one June evening when the Moon is Hyre, and the Marchbanks Dreier than usual, a Young Miller and a younger maiden start Gally forth for a short Krusen on a Brook nearby. They walk down a Sheedley Lane until they reach the house of a Cotter whose services are needed at the Helm.
They soon reach the Boaten are dreamly drifting down the stream, when a Lowe Bane, as of a sigh, lifes upon the lover's E.R. like the Dear of a man in a dark clammy chapse the maiden's Hand, and anxiously inquires the cause of her woe.
He being a practical man,remembers that they have brought their Coats with them and in the twinkling of an eye, the maid is snugly cuddled in the fold of her wrap. Whereupon there remain further discomfort from the colo-
"I'm Cole," she says, brushing z tiny Curl from her eve.
A little further down the stream, a cloud Lomes up, and obscures the Moon and the maiden, who is not yet Twente, begins to week.
"What have I Dunn," her lover cries, and not a Stone does he leave unturned to comfort the lady of his dreams.
"I have dismembered my father's rule, she says, "and his heart is as Cole as lese. The Moon is hiding her face, and Oman, Shall I not Rue this night?"
Wherewith the Miller comforts the maid with appropriate words, and Heis Armstrong, so that the tears are Dreier, and the lovers are once more as happy as two Robbins in the springtime. Perhaps the returning friendly light of his new wife encourages the man or Curly-Harrish encourages the man to say "I love you, May," and in spite of the maid's "How Darrah you, Sir," a lover's kiss on her brow is laid.
but—out— stammers the haunt:
"There are no Butts about this," he says,
"straightway to the Chapple we'll go and be wed."
"But—but—"stammers the maid.
"Why, there's the light of the chapple now," says MAY. "We are Miles away from home" and tremblingly she places her hand upon her love's arm.
With a word from the practical man, the helmsman steers to the shore where the boat is securely tied to the base of a tree so that the lovers may safely
The helmsman is dismissed, as is everything else from the mind of the man except the Lovejoy in the lay'd eyes.
A short walk brings them to the curate's house, where they are most cordially received by the Venerable man himself. When the curate learns the object of the visit, and is in the midst of the usual preliminary questions, the would-be bridegroom suddenly remembers that he has not procured a license, and "Doggett," says he "Let's send a Messenger for one."
Meanwhile the Venerable curate, who does not fully grasp the situation, invites the truant ones to a modest repast of Klamm and several species of Bunn, during which interval the curate discourses upon the ability of his Cook, especially upon the fact that she never Burns the food.
Having Eaton of the dainty luncheon, the party returns to the parlor, where they engage in the most practical, common sense conversation.
With fluttering Hand the bridegroom receives a paper on which are written these words: "Don't know what Otto be Dunn to you." z
Five people are at work on the Missouri river survey in the University laboratories. One man spends about six hours a day washing dishes. He uses a chemical cleaning fluid, rinses with distilled water and then sets them to drain, wiping them only on the outside.
Soon the doorbell rings. It is the Messenger returned. Has he the license?

TO HAVE OPEN HOUSE
Prof. Ward Will Give Exhibition in Pouring and Moulding Iron.
The students who are taking work in the foundry will pour iron for the last time during the Summer Session on Friday, June 28.
Professor Ward has decided to have an open day when anyone who wishes may come A gallery is built for visitors, and it is just as well to come prepared for some smoke and dirt when the cupola is opened.
About two hundred pounds of pig iron, and eight hundred pounds of scrap iron are placed in the cupola and when the iron melts it is run off into buckets, and turned into moulds that the students have prepared. These moulds are made of bank sand and wooden patterns are used which are taken out and, the melted iron fills these patterns.
Castings for shoes for cars, furnace repairs for the power house, sinks for the chemistry department, andirons and many other useful things are made in this foundry which is one of the fifty in the state

White Moths Fertilize Yuccar Flowers While Professor and Students Watch
Professor Hunter, Melvin Croan and G. K. Stanton spent an interesting hour Friday evening about two night watching the white moths at work in the corolla of a Yucuna flower corner of Warren and Illinois streets.
This moth is known as the Pronuboma and confines its period of action to the dusk of evening for the reason that the Yuca flowers do not open until at 8 o'clock. The moth collects the sticky pollen, packing it against the under side of its head. Having become well loaded it descends the stamen and flies to another flower where it densifies eggs.
Thus the method of cross pollination is made clear by this little moth no larger than a young house fly.
