The University enrollment this year is 98 per cent larger than it was in 1915. The number on the faculty is only 55 per cent larger. At the low point of the depression, resources were reduced 25 per cent while enrollment fell off only 15 per cent. Now we have the largest enrollment in our history, but resources have not increased. This wide discrepancy affects the quality as well as the quantity of the work being done. Prof. D. C. Jackson Among those who did much to keep up the standards of instruction was Prof. D, C. Jackson.

Roosevelt succeeds in getting the Supreme Court made over to his liking and begins work on his new AAA program, it might be wise for him to investigate this Japanese plan and urge the American farmers to take up the raising of cats. Japanese farmers, under the direction of Dr. Seinsuke Uchida, fur expert in the department of agriculture, are to be taught how to raise cats as a sideline to the growing of rice, cabbage and potatoes. In Ethiopia hundreds of natives were placed before a firing squad and shot down 10 at a time. After all, there's no use wasting time. Artful Aphrodites After all, cats are easy to raise, require little In Spain 150,000 civilians left Malaga to seek refuge a hundred miles away. They went on foot, bombed all the way. Then, upon reaching their destination, they were bombed again. A thorough job, that. What if they wore innocent Spaniards? So please bear in mind, beloved reader, upon hearing stories of massacres, bombings, blood purges, and such murbid things, that it is all for the sake of civilization. Pleasant dreams. In a recent dispatch from Tokyo it was disclosed that the Japanese government has gone into the business of cat raising to provide women with warm but inexpensive fur coats. Arkansas mules who are going the way of all flesh will have to get along without artificial aids to beauty if the legislature there passes a bill which is now before it. Arkansas mule traders, lacking moral restraint, have been dying gray hair, filling teeth, and otherwise disguising the ravages of time in decrepit old mules, with the result, that the unwary purchaser sees his fine young beast age 20 years in a good hard rain. The measure under discussion would require the governor's permission for altering the physical characteristics of mules. The Kansan Platform Helping Civilization Obviously the Arkansas solons have something, and there no use drawing the line at mules. The next logical step is the prohibition of the use of hair dye, rouge, lipstick, mascara, corsets, and the rest of the aids to feminine beauty. After all, you don't have to live with a mule the rest of your life. If a law protecting the purchaser of a mule against fraud is in order, there is no reason why "caveat emptor" should be the rule in the pursuit of the elusive female. Let the men know what they're getting. If some ambitious politician can get this bill through, he will earn the undying gratitude of millions—of men. Make Tabby Pay 3.

Let's Pout Indignant wasn't the word for the feelings of Mussolini when he learned that an invitation had been sent to Haile Selassie suggesting that Ethiopia send a representative to the coronation of King George VI. Hitler got sore because some tactless member of the British parliament made a crack about having to put up with Goering at the ceremonies. The two of them got angry, too, over the fact that an invitation had been sent to the loyalist government of Spain. It's a confusing world, isn't it? Well, we suppose congratulations are due the Duke of Windsor on getting out of the mess, so here they are. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1937 Campus Opinion Whittling Back in the good old days when the west was sparsely attired, amusements were few, and about the time that the colonial settlers take out the old pen knife and "sit and whittle." It was considered quite an art to be able to carve initials into the knives. That day has passed for most people, but the practice has continued among students at the University Classroom chairs, without "chunks of wood" cut out of them, where some student insisted on cutting his mittens, are hard to find. This not only presents an unpleasant appearance, but makes it hard to write with them. Many students seem to forget that it is not their property that they receive money. Eve Robertson should realize that it belongs to them and even though their parents are taxpayers, they should not insist on cutting out their income. (See the link in the Iok Smoothe.)

"To a gentleman who never reads fiction" is the inscription of the dedication; and my idea is that the gentleman would not approve of this fiction after he had read it, but then that would depend on the gentleman. For on the Old Ashburn Place things went on too well: a gentleman's society was of gentile society. The Ashburn Place in upstate Maine had been homesteaded in the early 1800s. Three generations had lived there building up the Ashburn name, ideals and traditions. It is of this rural New England scene certain stories that accumulate portraitral. The style of her writing is simple but vigorous, as their life; the tone of the conversation is deep and vibrant. Of Charlie Ashburn she has also given a vivid and understanding portraitral. Charlie in early manhood took over the responsibility of running the farm and of being head of the family affair, and was attended at the birth of her sixth child. The other children went to school, to college, hired out, and married; but good old Charlie stayed at home and was everyone's stability. The girl was not the best friend but a lover—he had more attractive brothers. Even when his brother brought a wife he was her friend, although it led to their mutual unhappiness, because "the native idion expresses it." Through all the narrative there is a strong vein of the tribe loyalty. For that reason, if for no other, it succeeds. The Roving Reporter Conducted By Ralph Bryant Listen closely. While eating at the counter of a downtown cafe, you hear over the radio a description of a desperate criminal who has just robbed a Lawrence bank of $100,000. Turning to the person next to you, who has also heard the broadcast, you ask about her cafe with a man answering perfectly the description in the announcement. How would you proceed?

Dorothy Forbes, c: 40: "Depends on how good looking he is." That's an item we had overlooked.

This question, given to test the psychological make-up of students on the Hill, seems to have brought out our cowardly tendencies. No one would argue that the answer need be only theoretical, offered the chivalric feature of spraying the pillefer's features with fluid from the ketchup bottle at one's elbow, or suggested the equally courageous idea of asking a question of staying healthy or becoming heroic, according to the general opinion.
