FUND GROWING
Contributions for the Will Rogers Memorial fund sponsored on the hill by the Kansan, are coming in steadily. No check on the amount has yet been made but indications are that the campaign is being favorably received by the students.
The Kansan is pleased by the support given the movement on the Hill. Although at the present time, the campaign seems to be headed toward a successful climax, there should be no slackening of interest. No doubt there are many students who have not as yet contributed their nickels. Some of these for reasons of their own, probably do not intend to, others have not taken the time or effort to deposit the money in the collection boxes. The Kansan has no concern with the former but urges the latter to make their contributions as soon as possible.
Pedestrians are by far the most frequent victims in road accidents in England. England is able to beat America's walk only because more English walken史走. Surely no patriotic American will admit that his aim isn't as good as any English automobile driver—Wichite Eagle.
APPEARANCES
Now and then an American writes a book about a foreign country and the foreigners protest that he was there only a few days and didn't know what he was talking about. If a foreign author were on a similarly hasty tour of the United States, think of some of the erroneous ideas he might form. He could, for example, assemble data to prove ours an extraordinarily moral, even a squeamish, country. Our people might take exception to this thesis, but that would not necessarily disprove it.
There was the case of Charleston, S.C., where 25 persons were jailed overnight for dancing on Sunday, and he could devote some readable paragraphs to explaining how there happened not to be an even number of couples. There was New York, where some artists gave a charity entertainment and at first thought it a joke when police rushed on the stage, And Chicago, which has seen the error of its ancient waywardness and sees "Tobacco Road" as a thoroughfare of destruction. And Kentucky which makes but does not drink liquor, although two years ago the state voted to repeal state prohibition, despite the circumstance that a majority of the counties voted dre.
And in Kansas where the people vote dry and appear somewhat damp.
Yes, all of this would make grand book material, and the foreign author could draw a lot of interesting, though sometimes misleading deductions.
The catch in the story about the New York racketer whose income was a million dollars a year during his life, lies in the phrase "during his life." - Minneapolis Messenger.
HECKLERS AND CREATIVE CRITICISM
The heckler is an exasperating animal which seems to thrive on college campuses. This animal seems to take delight in criticizing the efforts of others. No matter how well a piece of work is done, he always has some derogatory words to make about it. No worry whatsoever about his thing. In education, he ever crossed his lips. To make matters worse, he doesn't do anything creative—just heckles.
There is no good way to combat one of these self-styled cynics. When they are confronted with a point too profound for their narrow intellects to grasp, do they admit defeat? No, they merely sneer and pooh-pooh in a superior manner as though they were wasting time talking to such numbledkills.
THE heckler is a wrecker. Too shallow to do
anything on his own initiative, he hides behind a cloak of cynicism and superiority. The work of another is all wrong while his own work is nothing. He seems to have the perverted idea that to speak well of anything is childish and old-fashioned. He thinks that to appear educated, all one has to do is to find fault.
True education is not hyper-critical. It questions the genuineness of aged institutions; but it is quick to recognize and acknowledge goal. It may criticize but its criticism seeks to correct and not destroy. It is to be pitied that centers of learning are so infested with such ignorant, self-centered creatures as hecklers. The true scholar seeks the truth but the heckler believes there is no truth, therefore the two are irreconcilable.

HARVARD MALIGNED
Relief Administrator Harry L. Bopkins joined the ranks of the petty when he charged Harvard university with "nobbery" because it declined student aid funds from the National Youth administration.
from the standards.
As Harvard officials explained, students there are well trained, but financially, including those who attend on relationships. The $11 money allotted each worker by the N.Y.A., was thought insufficient to warrant its use for the relatively few cases in which university is providing employment.
Wellesley and Smith, women's colleges, also institutions of the rich, declined fund funds as did Dillard. These were the only refunDS in the country that being a woman was considered important now spending 9000 a month of NXA funds.
For hard-pressed students who might otherwise be forced to leave school, the allocation of relief funds has been a tremendous aid. When certain financially able institutions decline public money because they do not need it, however, it is unfair to accuse them of smoking. In Harvard's case, it was an attempt to co-operate

SCHOLARSHIP AND UNDERSTANDING
To increase our understanding of the world and of life is one of the important purposes of scholarship. A person who has no currency, no desire to increase his understanding of life cannot experience the scholarship provided.
honorship never is a gift. Like most other things worth having, it can be obtained only by sustained effort. Understanding of the world and of life of nature and of man, never is complete. Nor is it confirmed to any one subject. Valuable tribute of it may be from chemistry and poetry and music as well from chemistry and机械美术. The plays of Shakespeare, the poems of Milton, the music of Grieg, contribute to our understanding. So do the philosophy of Jesus, the biology of Darwin, the physics of Milliken and the geology of Chamberlain.
the interest of the genuine cellular artery are narrow. In our complex universe all artery have crossings, and we need new relationships.
Increased understanding obtained through scholarship is indestructible. It is independent of the stock market, the rise and fall of prices, the whiteness of fashion and the prevalence of antiquities, which can rob its possession of its pleasures and usefulness.
Going to college provides many opportunities. None is more important, to you and to the world, than the opportunity to achieve good scholarship and to gain the increased understanding that good scholarship brings. One of the great benefits of going to college is the liberal injunction: "With all they getting set understanding—"Kansas Industrialist.

Ancient Antics 20 Years Ago BY D.L.B.
A small blaze, caused by an over-ground stone, threatened to destroy the interior of Lee's College Inn last night. The stove placed against a thin partition next to the barber shop got too hot and caught fire inside, located in the establishment bit upon the areas of throwing water on the fire and the day was saved.
The University of Michigan dairy gives away samples of buttermilk every day for those students who desire a little nourishment. It is reported that there has been a marked drop in the consumption of buttermilk since it has a berry of beer swappers going into the cow harn for their daily操)
One girl student got caught in the swinging doors of the Chemistry building today during a sharp puff of wind. She was able to escape with blew the other against her, and it was only with grave difficulty that she was able to extract herself before serious injury might be done. The preventive coat she wore kept her from Snow hall and the Chemistry building were closed until the wind died down. (This sounds like one of the many times we come home with me now stories. Stay away from these swinging doors gal.)
The University may have a student book exchange next year if present plans are realized. (1935. The University has no future plan for next year if present plans are realized.)
Contributions will be received next Wednesday for the Dollar Christmas Fund for the Belgians. (It looks like Dollar Day in Belgium.)
The new bridge being built over the Kaw to North Lawrence, will be four inches under the high level of water reached in the 1903 flood. (The 1955 flood was about twice as high, this foot-pool bridge by breaking the dikes considerably above it.)
A protege for the class of 1915 has been found in a small girl, born recently to two students on the Jillian family, not making the trip to Missouri. Funds for the trip were not forthcoming—Nobody knows just how the journalism department got started—Accusations have been thrown at him, no one desireing to accept responsibility—Chancellor Strong made the statement that one Professor Canfield conceived the idea in 1880. The first class of students was under the History department.

Here's our idea of a perfect shave, using cream with its rich, beard-soffish texture and no soap bite. Then, a smooth, close-cutting piece is freed from scratchy nails. Nickles in the cream are added to a bit of Stag Lotion and a bit of Stag Power. Shave-Power

This is a shave that can't be beat anywhere.
Professor Todd took his geology class on the annual hike last Saturday. The hikers left the library at 8:30. They studied the formation of the rock exposure near the Physics building and also west of the Administration building. After exploring the Hill the class visited the rock formation. After exploring the Hill they had just studied in class. (This exploring the Hill is a fine idea—just think of all the students who still believe that Mount Ourea is inhabited by Indians and spirits.)
