A debate, listed as the "main bout" on ASU official posters, between Prof. A. M. Lee and Prof. John Lee, will be the feature event tonight after SU-conducted symposium, entitled "We Should We Renear Neutral in Spain?"
The symposium will be held tonight at 8 o'clock in the Memorial Union ballroom. The discussion will not be limited to students. All interested townpeople are invited to attend.
The affirmative stand will be taken by Alfred M. Lee, professor of sociology and journalism, and Mike L. Lee, professor in the deterptive of exegesis.
Before the "main bout" is held, there will be two preliminary speakers, Prof. J. M. Osma, department of romance languages, who has a wide acquaintance with the present Spanish situation, and Prof. W. E. Sandelius of the department of romance language, who present a background for the debate.

Wau Yai Wong, who works in the bacteriology laboratory was in the dressing room recently changing his clothes and had progressed to the point where he was sashing cloth when in walked one of the lady assistants. Wong did an about face, scamped through the door and out into the hall running and chattering in his native Chinese tongue. The doctor insisted that he move in the opposite direction—and from the display of speed it was difficult to determine just which of the two was the more embarrassed.
Maryne Woody, Chi Omega, tried to repay Frank Harwell, Phi Giam, for passing the ticket down the aisle to her which gave her a free trip to the Rose Bowl, but her sorrow sisters intervened. Likewise, we tried to reveal more information but Kansan heads intervened also, in that they did some censoring. However, if anyone would like to know the details, ask the aforementioned—if they won't tell, ask this amnesiac.

The cold weather has been causing Maxine Street, Alpha Delta Pi, no end of trouble. She has been carried over the sheet-covered bills and dropped, she has tried walking and fell, and as a finale--she couldn't get her boots off the other night so she slept with them on.
Ferrel Anderson called for him at the date of Theta house Friday night, but the girl was not quite overcoat and wait but discovered that he had forgotten to don his suit coat. Anderson very politely said, "Pardon me, I will be back later." Pardon me, I will be back later." Pardon me, I will be back later." Pardon me, I will be back later." Pardon me, I will be back later."
Bert Voorhees, a freshman, evidently prefers them young—he has been seen walking with a certain junior high girl on several occasions and is reported as being quite infatuated.

Brynwood Place, K. U. Landmark Once Housed Famous Art Collection
By Ray Tripp, c'39 and Louis Fockele, c'39
Brynwood Tree, occupied until recently by the Acacia fraternity, is one of the oldest and most historically valuable homes in Law-
it was formerly owned by Brinton Woodward, wealthy Kansas City druggist and collector of fine paintings. This old house, one of the few buildings in collection which it housed, situated at the top of Fourteenth street, and adjoined by University property on three sides has been closely related, during the past half-century or more, to the houses of Lawrence and the University.
THE BOOK NOOK
1021 Mass. St.
The grounds, composed of more than two acres of once heavily wooded land was purchased a few years after the close of the Civil War from Governor Robinson by Mr. Bake of the Delaware Bay Company of Kansas City who built the original house. Those were the days when Kansas winds were a little more violent than they are today, and consequently a cyclone cellar was built into the side of the hill close to the sturdy constructed house. The fresh-water house which originated at the hill to provide the household with its water still runs, although intermittently.
Combined Name
Conclusion
Some time after the construction of the house finished in oak and walnut throughout, it was sold to Mr. Brinion Woodward, who, after a tour abroad on which he purchased a number of valuable paintings, added, among other things, a beautiful art gallery for his collection. The estate be named Brynwood Place, combining the first parts of his first and last names to form the title.
(Get well cards also)
It was the art collection of Mr. Woodward that first made Brynwood Place known to art lovers all over the country. This collection, one of the best private ones west of the Mississippi river, made the book center a tourist attraction and a hallmark. It included several paintings purchased at the World's Fair in Chicago in 1883, which were later lent to the University. It is now on display on the third floor of the Administration building. A library of rare books, kept in the book cases in the art gallery of Brynwood Place, includes the volume of bibliographies, especially for its voluminous magazine files and for its volumes of French, English, and American poetry.
After the death of Mr. Woodward in 1919, his widow spent most of
her time in California and, consequently, the house was closed for some time. Later the house was purchased by the Acacia fraternity and again remodeled. The size and number of the rooms was increased, and a bathroom was added. Since then the house has been changed with minor improvements and today remains one of the historical landmarks of Lawrence.

A CORNER ON BOOKS
by Gail Van Mere e'37
The Last Puritan: A memoir in the
form of a novel. Scribner. 1936.
402 p.
The "Last Puritan" is an analysis of our civilization by the only modern philosopher who has been able to make philosophy into an art; for he is a great master of English prose. If you enjoy only pure text, this book will allow you to literatureap art because it a philosophical narrative of the Puritan tradition as it appeared in the twentieth century.
There is no excitement in this austere novel, Oliver Alden, born tired, child of a loveless marriage, autore, self-controlled, beautifully schooled and regimented, remained a mere spectator in life, incapable of contact or immersion, incapable of finding spiritual satisfaction. "He convinced himself on Puritan grounds that it was wrong to be a puritan. He thought it was his clear duty, to give gratuitum up, but didn't." It is a sad story and is in the end a depressing book; for over it there broaches a heavy sense of the vanity of all philosophies and religions.
The profoundness of ideas and the gravity of the philosophy are tempered by amusing portraits of crabbed New Englanders, sophisticated New Yorkers, self-important Englishmen, and sentimental Germans. Only is Oliver pathetic and beautiful. He suffered the terrible fate of being consumed by his virtue. His sincerity was his sole point of offense. "Women were rather difficult to him. He thought they liked them and thought they liked their money there was always wanted. We regard all women as ladies, more or less beautiful, kind, privileged, and troublesome. He never discovered that all ladies are women."
Among all human beings, wise or foolish, poor Oliver, the tenderly loved puritan, is the only one who proved himself compelled to wear a hat or a bitter, merciless pleasure in the hard facts. Yet "When life is over, and the world has gone up in smoke, what realities might the spirit in us still call its realities?" (In those of these very illusions which have made up our story.)
