There are still a few places vacant in the band which will be filled by experienced band men. Students who have had experience are requested to call at the Treasurer's office and report experience and instrument to the President, G. O. Foster.

This pamphlet shows that the value of the annual output of Kansas' mines and quarries aggregates the somewhat surprising sum of $9,260,000. Without doubt this will be a surprise to some eastern people who imagine that our fair state is rich in agricultural products only.
