We'd like to say that any who fail to decipher the above code may call at the office and we'll try to have Mas Murphy fix it up for you.
Heard of a nice slip on the part of one of the local instructors yesterday. Apparently he was telling his class to trace his footsteps from A to Z and here's the way he put it — to trace so and so "from childhood to adult" in mind that 'a little bit too heavy, professor?'
And speaking of professors, remind us that we have one who can tell you just most anything from the cost per year of the Minneapolis school district. The government will tax a poor hard-work college boy on a gallon of whiskey—you can figure out for yourself how many things can be included in the space between these
And now that we've almost recovered from the recent Band Plague we see a couple of bus loads of high schools from Anthony taking a look around the campus for their senior trip or something. May we request that no one hire the Salvation Army band to play for us and good upplifting during final week?
Dean Returns From Coast
We hear that there has been a new club organized in the engineering school known as the Beachcomber's Club. All of the charter members have to pass only one important test, according to rumors—they must be first class members of our organization. We organize one of those things ourselves but why not just include the entire senior class in the one club and do away with a lot of red tape? Just think how many people there would be to pay dues into the treasury—only they wouldn't mind. The club keeps up its original high qualifications for membership. The prexy will probably use a savel with the head made up of applications for jobs and the hand-made from those lovely little things known as "We haven't a right thing now but I'll take your name and address and just go as soon as something turns up."
Swarthout Completes Concert Arrangements in New York City
Dean D. M. Swarthout returned recently from New York City where he made final arrangements for the completion of the Concert Course attractions for next season and completed a tour of interest in the School of Fine Arts.

On Friday, Dean Swarthout will leave for Cincinnati, Ohio, where for two days he will meet with the curricula of the National Association of Schools of Music.

But Coffee. "Beat it." I said."
in such a manner might grandfather have been refused a dance when he was a boy in college. Such was the slang of 50 years ago. Father's case would have been different. Here is an example scene in the language of the 1900s.

But father and grandfather lived in the dark ages of self expression. The point of the story is that the "doll" was so little she had to care for her father and grandfather were just "flat hops" to her. She didn't care for "cold biscuits," so she told them to "seam." They did.

Dr. William Robinson, '24 Is Partly Responsible for Scientific Treatment
Dr. William Robinson, who received his M.A. degree in entomology at K.U. in 1924, recently was responsible, in part, for the discovery of a new cure for burrow wounds. He is employed in the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quantine of the U.S. Soybean Association from a clue provided by an insect.
Treatment
Lawrence answered a request for his autograph from Dr. Walter Williams.
The entomologists in the department have discovered a new way to heal stubborn insects. Clearly, the new treatment is the application of a solution of anilinon, a blend, odorless, harmless and easily obtained product found in both insects.
Missouri University Library Books
Fail to Impress Lawrence of Arabia
Hail "Miss Beauty of 1936"
Columbia, Mo. May 21—Choice of Col. T.E. Lawrence's book "The Odyssey of Homer" for a University of Missouri library failed to impress the man who had been "Lawrence of Ariba" and "Bob White." The bicycle accident it was revealed tonight.
(By The United Press)
The insect is one of a species of fly (in the magest stage) that gained fame as a medical aid on the World War battle fields, where an Army doctor found the wounds infested with maggots healed better and faster than wounds without them. Since then, surgeons all over the world had maggots in treating deep infections.
Government entomologists, who have developed methods for rearing and shipping sterile maggots to hospitalized animals, say they are more efficient of this maggot's power to heal. Dr. William Robinson now finds that allantam, which produces a blood-borne illness, their way through a wound, is responsive.

president of the university, with a letter criticizing the choice of books for the University of Missouri school of journalism founders library.
"I hope the readers will treat them as decorations or scalps and not as inclement toward thinking," Lawrence wrote.
Lawrence suggested that Dr. William change his committee of selectors which includes Sir Arthur W. Curry, preside; Robert L. Hammond, Cleveland editor; Carl M. Hylan secretary of the American Library Association; Cass Cannell, New York book publisher; Dr. Frederick J. Lazzuli, Univ. of Chicago dept. L. Martin department dean of the school.
The library was established by alumni of the journalism school to honor Dr Williams, who was the founder and for 26 years served as its dean.
authors represented in the collection include James Truslow Adams, Hervey Allen, Sir Norman Angell, Arnold Bennett, John Galsworthy, Maxim Gorky, Sidney Lawson, Laws Eden, Sir Ursur Millay, Darrin D. Bootle and H. G. Wells.
It was not so much with the choice of books that Lawrence found fault as it was with those that were passed over. His letter said:
"I failed to answer your first request for my autograph out of politeness. It seemed to me hardly consonant with the reputation of a great university; and therefore, I glanced through the list of selected books which accompanied your letter that completed my automaton for I found (besides the inevitable names of the authors) only two names, Archibald McLeish and Harper, that stood in any way for the considerable body of people trying to write ahead of this time today.
our list contained no Faulkner, no Yeats, no Day Lewis, no Hanley, no Houghton, no Hudin, no Stein, no Biggard, no Dumbo, no Guard, no V. Weeks, and no Dos Passos.
"Dear Mr. President:
"I live in barracks and make no preface to keep struts of the generations around me," she says. "To find one's work included in a collection from which nearly everything one knows comes."
"I hope the University of Missouri is not infected with the safety plan that has so often made European universities lose touch with reality.
"I am aware you are only the unfortunate recipient of this avalanche of bad books, and hope the readers in the life who read them will like (you) yourself to treat them as decorations or scalps and not as incitements toward thinking, but it does seem to throw a lurid reflection upon the state of your selectors. I should change them.
"With very mixed feelings, believe me
"T. E. Shaw."

College Faculty Approves Religion School Changes
Administrative Committee Makes Other Special Proposals
The faculty of the College of Liberal Arts, at its meeting yesterday afternoon, approved the recommendation of the administrative committee for a new classification of the courses offered by the A.B. degree for credit toward the A.B. degree.
The faculty recently rearranged its curriculum, renumbering the courses to correspond to the scheme of numbering used in the College and designating some courses as open for sophomore, junior and senior credit, and others as open to juniors and seniors only. College students may offer courses for the A.B., degrees, not to exceed six hours from the School of Religion, and not more than three of these hours may be from the sophomore credit courses.
Certain Religion Courses Restricted
Certain of the courses which appeared to be somewhat of duplications were designated, and students will be permitted to offer either, but not both, for credit toward a degree. Also, students who wish to meet Seth W. Slaughter, the student may offer any one, but not more than one.
Other recommendations of the committee approved by the faculty were:
1. Request of the department of English to drop course 293, *Theory of Poetry* from undergraduate credit. It is a graduate course.
2. Request of the Senate R.O.T.C. committee that the faculty ask the war department to retain the engineers' unit and an infantry unit, dropping the coast artillery unit, rather than dropping the engineering unit.
3. The recommendation that, as far as the College is concerned, eight hours will be the maximum hours a student may carry in the Summer Session.
Miss Beulah Morrison, secretary of the faculty, reported that the letter ballot, nominating candidates for two vacancies on the administration of 37 different faculty members, with seven or more votes for the following: Miss May Gardner, Prof. H. C. Thurau, Prof. D. C. Clark, Prof. W. E. Sandelau, and Dr. N. P. Carlsen, also名省 names, submitted to the faculty, and two persons elected.
Request Made by Speech Department
The request of the department of speech and dramatic art to drop course 56, Dramatic technique, and substitute course 11, general play production, was referred to the administrative committee.
Request of the department of sociology that course 170, Community Organization, which heretofore has been given only as an extension course, be made a course in the winter session, with a slightly changed content in view of recent changes in social welfare work, was referred with power to act. The course is intended to help with the administration of relief and character building agencies, and is intended to be value to sociologists who are preparing for social service work.
Faculty Favor Changes
The faculty approved the action of the administrative committee in several minor changes, chiefly in numbering of the subjects and in extending to three hours for the summer session, the credit of the 2-hour course in the history department's Prot.
Dean P. B., Lawson, who presided at the faculty meeting, reported to the faculty meeting counsel that the faculty meeting会议 deans from 14 midwestern colleges. He talked especially of the points mentioned that had been discussed under discussion at this University.

DEATH CLAIMS JANE ADDAMS SOCIAL WORKER
rounder of Hull House Succeumbs Following a Major Operation; Visited University in May, 1912
By the United Press
It was announced immediately that funeral services would be held Thursday at 2:30 p.m. in Hull House court. After services the body will be taken to old home in Cedarville, Ill., for burial. Speakers at the simple funeral services will include Dr. Chisholm, a member of the University of Chicago, and Dr. Graham Teyler, 81-year-old, former head of Chicago Commons.
She succumbed to cancer and intestinal obstruction aggravated by a series of illnesses since childhood combined with other complications. An experienced work for the under-privileged.
Her nearest living relatives, Prof. James Weber Linn, of the University of Chicago, said the services would be kept "as simple as possible."
Jane Addams was a native of Cedar-
ville, III, and received her first college degree from Rockford College in 1881. She then went on to receive her degree in Philadelphia. She received the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from the University of Wisconsin in 1904, and from Smith College in 1905, and was a member of the arts degree from Yale University.
With Helen Gates *star* she opened the social settlement at *Hull House*, 800 South Halstead street, *cage* in 1888, from which time forward she was its last.
For three years she was president of the National Council of Charities and Corrections, and later of the Women's International League for Peace.
Among her books were: Democracy and Social Ethics. Newer Ideals of Peace, The Spirit of Youth and the City Streets, Twenty Years at Hull House, A New Conscience and an Ancient Evil, Peace and Bread in Time of War.
After completing a college course, Jane Addams spent several years traveling and studying in Europe. Her splendid education gave her a broad vision of life, and being thoroughly imbued with the spirit of humanitarianism, it was only natural that she should have been involved with the people she loved. And thus she laid the foundation for her life's work at the Hull House.
Her extensive study and research in social evils of the housing situations of many cities of many countries had given her the foundation for an ideal world, but she also encountered with the complex problems, which were encountered from day to day, have been graphically described in her book, "Twenty Years at Hill House," but these difficulties were only the font beneath which she drew inspiration and courage.
Jane Addams sought the most wretched specimens of humanity, the immigrant, who comes *o* our shores homeless, homesick and forlorn. She stretched out the hand of welcome and led the way for readjustment of this world.
She was the first women to receive a degree from Yale University. The first woman to graduate from Ford College and the first woman asked to deliver a commencement address at the University of Chicago. Also, she was the first woman to graduate of the Chicago Board of Education.
Miss Addams came to the University of Kansas May 6, 1912, as a convoction speaker.
