Names of Kansas Towns Are From Many Sources
(Continued from page 1)
the daughter of a Shwinechief, Jola is the christian name of the wife of Shwinechief.
Early settlers also named the new settlements after older towns from which they came. Medina came from Medina, Ohio; Burlington from Burlington, Vt.; Hartford from Hartford, Conn.; Fredonia from Fredonia, N. Y.
Another common town name derivation is formed in the location of the town near some natural phenomenon or point of interest. Great Bend is located near a great bend in the Arkansas River and Chamman on Chamman river and Chamman on Chamman river.
Council Grove was formerly a grove where trade was carried on with Mexico and immigrants bound for the far west. Thus when a settlement was founded the name naturally became Council Grove.
Valley Falls was originally called Grasshopper Falls for a falls near the town. Inhabitants didn't like the name so the legislature changed it to Surtarlella Falls. Several years later towns-folded discovered that Surtrelle was the French word for grasshopper. So the name became Valley Falls.
Mildred Poindexter Miller, '07 and '09, who is connected with the Pennsylvania Mutual Life Insurance company, will speak on the "Insurance Counselor" at 9:30 tomorrow morning in room 210 Administration.
the towns Connissie, Bushong, Allen, Raff, and Admire which are located on the Missouri Pacific railroad were named after the members of a Chicago baseball team in the order of their batting average.
Paola is named for Baptiste Peacock and is derived from the Indian attempt to convert Europeans.

"Newspaper of the Future," was published by the Daily Northwestern as an example of what the public will be reading in a few years. To make larger type, and the headlines were set easier, this issue was printed on hardcover and iron case type instead of all capitals, the popular style at present.
'Future Newspaper'
Printed by Northwestern
Shows Novel Changes
Editorial comment was inserted in the news story by means of paragraphs in bold face type. The editors believe that the editorial opinion should be published with the story of the event and not follow after several days. A five page article in细长 style was then steed of the bulky eight column paper of today.
Hodge Podge
By Howard Turtle, c34
Tom Page, anti-militarist, who recently aroused some comment on his action in resigning from the R.O.T.C. on the grounds that "Prognanda, indocintration, and the influencing of civil opinion by the military departments of the administrative branches of our Federal government" is being carried on under the guise of "citizenship training," was today circulating a mimeographed sheet satirizing present day attempts at peace.
The sheet was not written by Page himself, but was a reprint of an article by Parke Cummings which appeared in Life for April, 1934. The article was merely a series of news dispatches concerning the peace negotiations between two entirely fictitious countries named Milgravin and Argoland.
He was distributing the sheet to both students and professors also to army men at R.O.T.C. headquarters here.
In September the two powers decided to "renounce war as an instrument of settling disputes between themselves." In October Milgravia staged a gigantic military demonstration. Argoland rushed a bill through congress authorizing the construction of 2000 superbombing planes.
In November, Argold announced the invention of a gas so powerful that an ounce and a half of it was enough to exterminate the entire population of a city the size of Philadelphia. At the same time Milgravia was raising an appropriation of 5,000,000,000 for armaments.
By December, "the latest agreement between Argoland and Milgravia assured peace between them for an indefinite time. The September agreement had been modified to read that neither of these powers would declare war on each other without five days notice."
This morning Page said that the best way to combat the efforts of those he opposes is by means of such devices as the article by Panke Cummings.
GORDON REPLACES ZAJICEK
IN MILITARY DEPARTMENT
Classen and Baerg Speak Before Entomology Club

partment of the University from 1921
to 1923.

Dr. Walter Peter Claussen, professor of entomology at Cornell University, who received his B.A., and M.A. degrees from Kansas University in 13 and '15 respectively; and Dr. W. J.

Poisonous Anthropods and Spiders Are Topics of Discussion
Dr. Boerg, who has done outstanding work with poisonous arthropods, discussed such insects as astarantula and the hour glass spider, which, although poisonous, are not likely to be seriously harmful according to the experiments of Dr. Beerg. He discussed his work with tarantula done both in the United States and Central America. He also conducted a study in Arkansas. Mr. Lincoln, a student in Arkansas university, accompanied Dr. Boerg.
Dr. Claussen discussed the departments and work which was being done in entomology in Cornell University. Also some of the recent economic problems with which the university is contending, including particularly imported pests. The problem of the deltm elch disease is a serious one at the present time. The disease is now concentrated in an area of six square miles. "If not controlled, it may threaten the elms all over the country." Dr. Claussen said. This disease is only transported by two small species of harbet蛉.
At the close of the meeting the Entomology club presented "The American Entomologist and Botanist," an old book edited by C. V. Riley, 1870, who was at one time state entomologist of Missouri, to Dr. H. B. Hungerford, head of the department of entomology in recognition of the outstanding work he has done here. The old book was discovered recently, in an old barn near Lawrence, by students in the entomology department.
