Valentines Dating Back to Early Nineteenth Century Exhibited
A collection of old valentines of the first half of the Nineteenth century is on exhibit at the Spooner-Thayer Art Museum.
Each fragile folder, bordered about by delicate paper lace, and decorated with finely drawn, hand-painted clusters of flowers or scenes, is a work of art in itself. In those days then valentines were not so easily bought, most of them were made painstakingly by hand. The faded veres on the takens are penned in a fine old-fashioned hand.
That these delicate leaflets have survived is probably due to the fact that they were placed between the leaves of some seldom opened book for safe keeping.
The first reference to the valentine in literature is found in Pepys diary in which he records:
"I am also this year my wife's valentine, and it will cost me 5 pounds, but that I must have laid out if we had not been valentines."

Family Establishes Record
Thirty-two Consecutive Years for Descendents of Sterling
With the graduation of Lawrence Sterling, c'34, last semester there ended a period of 32 years in which at least one of Prof. and Mrs. M. W. Sterling's direct descendants was attending Kansas University.
Professor and Mrs. Sterling entered the University in 1878 and were graduated in 1883. Professor Sterling began assisting in Latin instruction in his sophomore year and has been an instructor here ever since.
The first daughter of Professor and Mrs. Sterling entered the University in 1902 and their last child was graduated from the Medicine School in 1930. In all, five of their children gained degrees in the sciences; Scott Sterling, having attended Yale.
Last year four of their grand children attended the University. Only one, Lawrence Sterling, returned this year and he has now graduated. Professor and Mrs. Sterling expect two more grandchildren to enter the University next year.
Sooner Matmen Down Wildcats

University of Missouri students responded to the call of Head Coach Frank Carideo for spring football practice yesterday. Those reporting were pitted against Veteran Cameron checkers in games today. Cameron anticipates a squad of sixty men on the field by the end of the week, he said.
Spring football practice will probably start about the first or second week of
March, according to Dr. F. C. Allen. The reason for the late start is that Forrest "Frosty" Cox, Freshman basketball coach and varsity back field coach will not be through with basketball until that time. Mike Getto, line coach, also would be unable to meet with the team at an earlier date.
Varsity basketball practice for this afternoon will take the form of a scrimmage against members of the freshmen squad. Frost picked by Coach "Frosty" Cox to take part in this scrimmage are: forwards, Sid Rice, Cliff Barber and Bob Holmer; centers, Al Welhausen, and Dave Lutton; guards, Bob Wilhelm, Fre Praille, and Jim Linden.

They Satisfy
... people know it!
Same thing with a good cigarette or a good wood-fire. All you need is a light. And all you want is a cigarette that keeps tasting right whether you smoke one or a dozen.
That's what people like about Chesterfields. You can count on them. They're milder and they taste better.
In two words, they satisfy. That says it.
