ONE TYPE OF STUDENT
Some time in the not far distant future, educational institutions will, with mystic and formal services, pour forth upon a world already crowded with unemployed, some of the best (and worst) educated, stereotyped human machines that have ever bewailed the unkind fate that made them normal—or subnormal.
These learned creatures have been graduated from college. They will have known what professors to take classes under; where the "best people" ate and drank; what dances were worth attending; and incidentally, all there is to know about sports, fraternities and college life in general. In short, their degree will symbolize the fact that they are accomplished in the art of living at college. The next school year they could come back, if one, and if one'd listen to their advice, make a student's life in the University less futile.
Of course, fond parents wonder how all this prepares their offspring for the great world and its combats. That is a pertinent question, and after the fashion of many professors, it is left for them to look up in their books and answer. If they were told, they wouldn't remember it.
Perhaps parents may think it rather a predicament to have the well-educated prodigal return to their board and room, but they should consider the poor graduate's plight. Think how he will miss college life - will miss everything, in fact, but the really vital things he left behind unexplored
"Son Speaks for President," declared a newspaper headline. The prospect of life within the next few weeks has convinced us, at least, that Rosenstock is perfectly capable of speaking for himself.
SPRING HOMECOMING
The eleventh annual Kanss Reals, one of the three major track and field carnivals in the country will be held April 21 and 22. News papers all over the United States contain stories on the coming classic. Athletes from many states will compete in the events. Speeaters will see runners whom they have viewed before only in the Sunday rotogravure sections.
That week-end, containing an all-state high school track meet the Relays, and the Senior Cakewalk, will be the busiest of the spring semester. There will be no better time for entertaining the family or other visitors from home.
The Relays advertise the University more than any other single event on the athletic program. They make the school known to the world.
Students should back the athletic board with unqualified enthusiasm in promoting this annual meet.
PISCATORIAL VETO
Someone suggests stocking Potter lake with fish. The idea behind the suggestion was that the tired student could while away the time between classes in the best Izac Walton manner and in this way relieve the boredom of college life. Courses in angling are offered by some colleges and it probably
wouldn't be long until some student of the University would start agitation for similar instruction at Kansas.
Perhaps at first glance the idea has possibilities. But we are forced to the belief that it has little appeal. Situated as we are in the central portion of the country, our politicians and ministers will not permit us to forget the fact that the plains were meant by the Creator to be arid and that it is man's duty to keep them so—regardless of personal desires.
Then there is another angle to this proposition of anuding. If Potter lake were to be stocked with fish, women students would have to be permitted to participate in the sport. This appears to us to offer an unfair advantage. Why increase their abilities when they have been giving astounding exhibitions of their adepitness at hooking "poor fish" since time immemorial? Besides, who would bait their hooks?
THE GREAT AMERICAN DESERT
- All the rest of the world is soon to be beer, but Kansas will still be dry. It is strange how much rejoicing students have been doing over the passage of a bill legalizing beer when they know that the state and the University will simply be an island in the flood of slightly alcoholic liquors.
Sweet young things are bemoaning the fact that they "just can't take it" not having enough good Dutch ancestry to appreciate the flavor of lager. The braver sex are going around boasting of capacities well up in the gallons. What are they so excited about? Kansas is bone-dry.
Fraternities and sororities have been measuring their collar space in terms of quarts and pints. The barber shop quartets are practicing up on the Stein Song. Won't somebody please break it gently that after all Kansas is going to stay right on the wagon—yes, the water wagon!
JOBS OR FORESTS?
Newspaper announcements of President Roosevelt's reforestation plan were almost unanimous in centering attention on the unemployment relief feature of the proposal. While providing work for the jobless may be of primary importance at the present time, reforestation of America's timber lands will be of immensely greater value to the country in future years.
Men who have studied the situation agree that at the present rate of consumption, the timber of this country will be exhausted in at most fifty years. It is not hard to visualize the devastating effect this would have upon every phase of American civilization. The necessity for dactic measures to prevent such an occurrence is obvious.
And reforestation can never be accomplished by private lumbering interests. The initial expense is too great and the return too slow to attract the eye of capitalistic investment. Only the government is in a position to take over this extremely essential project and carry it through.
It is highly probable that the Roosevelt plan will become history, hot because of its unemployment relief feature, but because of what it accomplishes in re-forestation.
The past fifteen days in Washington have not been particularly pleasant ones for the staid and august members of Congress who for so long have been accustomed to slow, deliberate, legislative action. They are not used to being driven as President Roosevelt has driven them, and it has offended their dignity.
CONGRESS DANCES

Of course there is a limit of discretion which professors should observe. It is obviously unethical for instructors to down the throats of students their own pet doctrines and by interpreting what they teach in the light of these doctrines. But if professors are forced to shum expressions of opinion, we cannot understand Dully Cardinal that "we might just have our books of half a century ago

KEITH W. JOHNSON, Social Chairman.
Perhaps without knowing more of the circumstances of the case we have cited, we should not draw conclusions. But is seems an unfortunate tendency that faculties, especially in state supported institutions, are fearful of expressing opinions on controversial issues and progress which may possibly result from the lack of higher learning will likely be stultified if professors feel obliged from a sense of self-preservation to muffle their own ideas and "stick to facts."
The regular weekly meeting of the Y.M.C.A. cabinet will be held Thursday March 23, at 4:30 p.m. in room 10 of the Memorial Union.
pushed into working without their accustomed, pompous aids and stateliness. They have not been allowed to make long, impressive speeches for the Congressional Record to publish; nor have they been permitted to waste the government's time with petty, unimportant matters that have heretofore been tolerated out of "courtesy." Speed and efficiency have become their keynote, and they have found it hard to adjust themselves to the rigorous demands made upon them.
A professor at Northwestern University was dismissed this week. He stated that he felt the reason for his dismissal was the fact that he is a member of the American Civil Liberties union, the League for Industrial Workers and hold unorthodox attitudes on problems of peace, race, and industry.
KICKING OUT THE HERETICS
KEITH W. JOHNSON, Vice President.
They tried to withdraw in to the injured silence of a two-day adjournment, but found their efforts checked by an alert chief executive. They tried to maneuver for position, and were promptly outmaneuvered. They sought other loop hooks and found none. They know now that their case is hopeless. They're going to have to go to work.
Our Contemporaries
Does this mean that college professors may not be allowed to teach if their views do not coincide with majority opinion, which can usually be counted on as being conservative opinion? Is the opinion of the majority to dictate to college professors what and how they shall teach?

THE STORY
CHAPTER I - Having demonstrated the ability to play the "Black Box" which was perfected, owen Landis, young inventor, in his first job as a salesman for his clam, Wally Malty that he found the device, if exploited, might be valuable. The Black Box is stolen from a safe in a black box on the floor.
CHAPTER IX - Markham, vaguely inspired by his hotel room in his absence. He has a hotel room with two solvers and a complete set of burglaries on the floor and burglaries' kit to the hotel solvers and burglaries' kit to the hotel room. That tight the safe in the date is white was blown open and locked, the safe was blown open and locked, the safe that him "buckled box" is satttened that his "buckled box" is satttened that his "buckled box" is satttened that his he used her bracelet, with markham's suit.
CHAPTER 11 - Landis tells Markham
that he and his wife are in love, but the combination of the safe, is Herty Lawson, with whom the inventor was married. He says that a cast of a woman's footprint, found at her parents' house, might have been there.
CHAFTER III--Betty, daughter of a pastor at Markham. Both he and Landis believe himself to be taken an opportunity to fit into the priesthood. But they are identical, but both men have Landis. Cahay, a stranger in the town, who is possessed by a demon, says that God had night, the god she had deserved. Markham does not tell Landis how he has deliberately stolen the invention from her, or what she have deliberately stolen the invention from her. The evidence of the plaster cast axes at the time of the robbery.
CHAPTER VI-While he and Landis are sleeping, Markham's car is stolen they go on, on the road to the mines. They come back to the Fleetwing, ahead of them. At a camp in Cappadocia they meet Ipoh Siu, who is West, and explains the reason for her West, and explains the reason for her overhears a conversation between Cancon and the three Louisville men which eventually found

CHAPTER VIIH—At Wrestler they were the West on business connected with the East, and their father are with him as guernseys and her father are with his guernseys and ontology. Lands and Markham are as antiquities, but Beat off their assaultants. However, both will go unguarded; the two of them will become degenerate.

The small, dusty, rattleskull car was standing as they had seen it from the opposite side of the trunk. Beside it he clenched his fists in his hands their hands in deference to Landis' covering pistol, and at their feet lay the rifle with which one of them laid down his sword. Markham could get his breath, Landis was grilling the pair snappily.
"What did you fellows mean by firing at us when we were down there?"
"Talk Fast and Talk Straight, if You Want to Go On Living!"
Talk fast and talk straight, if you want to go on living?"
"G-great Scott!" stuttered the taller of the two. "Are ye meanin' to s-ay hit was you-ull down yonder in the gulfs?"
"You know d-d well it was!
What's your game? Who sent you
here to kill us off? Talk quick!"
"Force Gawd, mister, you got us all wrong! We n't alimin' to kill nobody! I thirt you was a blar; so help me I did! They told us, down my car, 'I don't know a blar comin' through these mountains, and when we looked down yonder, we shore thorn all wuz one, didn't we Jeff?' appealing to his mate, "food gravy!" You don't know what man, know'n it wuz a man, do ye?"
At this point Markham took a hand. "Where are you follows from?" he demanded.
"We're from Tennessee. Been to Utah, swell' if hit wuz ahit' country for white folks. Hit nint', and go back to to go back where we come from"
"Did you stop in Brewster?"
"Dida't stop only long enough to buy us some grub."
Lands lowered his pistol, but held it in readiness. "Why did you stop here?" he asked.
The man jerked his head toward the open cow of the car, where a disconnected ignition wire offered the reason for a stop.
“go ahead and fix it,” and Landia “too,” then he pick up the shirt he wore. Then he tugs at it against a boulder, shattering the stock. “Just to keep you yups from getting curless with somebody else.” She has her shirt off, and she’s the disabled weapon into the torment of the fliver. “Now couple up that wire and get out of here. And do it.”
While the men were working at the wire, he motioned to Wally.
"I look in the car and see if they've got any more artillery," he said; and he and Markham followed it up to see what censurees he had parked the rooster.
They waited beside the road until after the car had lumped on around the next gutch looping. Then they got on their own car and headed for Brewer.
"Well," Markham said, niftier they had not the scene of them into advance. "What was he asking?" "what's the answer? Is that wreck in the guich what is left of the Fleet."
"I couldn't be sure. But it was an Eight. You saw that much, didn't you?"
Markham nodded. "Next, what?" Martha asked. "I'll drive it flurryer. Have you figured that out?"
"No; though I more than half believe they were dying. It's lucky for them."
"Gosh!" said Markham with a laugh. "I'm white again to the extent that I need nothing to the extent that I might be lacking a few of the red corpuscles. I take it all back, everlasting love. I'll be gone soon." She shown me the fighting side of you before Owen? You haven't, you
Landis' smile was a more tightening of the lips.
"You've heard the old saying 'Beware the wrath of a patient man,' haven't you? I'm patient, Wally—'You're not going to get me. I'm fed up. From this time on, by the Lord Harry, I fight for my own hand! I've been robbed and sandbagged and shot at, and the next man that tries to get the best I've got in the box."
"Gosh!" said Wally again; and this time he did not laugh.
On the flight down the mountain what happened until they were on top? They had been leading to Camby's mine. Here, however, there was a near accident. As they approached the mine,
backing out of the road leading to the mine. Markham sounded his horn, but the driver of the truck held up and pulled over an early vehicle fairly across the highway.
It was too late to stop, and Markham did the only thing there was to do if a collision was to be evered; stepped on the gas, and with a quick twist of the wheel whipped the roadster around the rear of the backing tires. He then slipped inches to space between a deep roadside ditch and the trending mumbles.
No word was spoken until they were speeding over the meadow road toward the river. They thought ought to have shot that truck driver, Owen. It would have been justifiable.
"I don't think; I know," was the grittiest reply. "That was one of Cuny's trysts. I saw the name Qianxia running in my mind that we will have to kill a few people out here, yet, before we're through, Wally. And by heavens, I'm telling you, right now, if we can on ask for it, they'll get it!"
CHAPTER X
The Louisville Three
"For safety's sake, you mess? Not so you could notice it. I'm not doodling anybody or anything tonight."
"No thanks; I can't go alone."
"The Stillings live away ever in the western suburb," said Markham. "You'd better take a taxi, or the sham."
"Got your war paint on, have you?
Don't want me along?"
Left to himself, Markham lighted a cigar and picked a quiet corner of the lobby in which to read. Soon L兰 returned, the frown of his departure deepened to an unwanted sword, "No luck!" said Wally, noting the word.
"No. She'd gone out somewhere-with Carny."
"Just friendly gossip?"
"No; he has gone to the fossil fields, wherever they are." I visited with the Stillings—mostly Mr. Stillings, in his den."
"Not altogether. Betty's been taken about us and that but broke the kee. The Stilinski don't quite like the way she let's Canby cut in."
"That's the aftermath of his scampishness out here last summer, I suppose."
"Not so much that as other things,
Stillings thinks. Canby is fixing to
pull off something else; and that he
is using Betty in some way."
"But how could Betty figure in any of his schemes?"
"God knows. But it's plain Stillings believes she does inimoney, of innocence, of faith," he said. He found out where we stand; they were in Cain's home and in a to put a spoken in Cain's where."
"Good. You'll do it?"
"Well both do it. As you remarked, I have my wartime on now." "Anything happened to stir you up fresh?"
"Yes. That shooting this afternoon was a plumed attempt to kill us," he said. "I just now I saw a car with running boards of comp dumpage going through by the back streets. There were two cars, and I saw an officer came under the crossing electric. They were the men who were shot tourists; they were gunmen, hired to follow us. They made a roundabout drive some way, and have just got off."
"All right; dope the rest of it out if you can."
"It's clear enough. My black box is, and the men who have who know we have followed them, and you can't be safe until they get rid of us."
"Can you carry it a step farther?"
"I think so. There are four men in it, and Candy is the fourth."
"And the three others—are they road and road but not road and road and road but not
"I don't know, But never mind that. What we have to do first is to cut Betty out of it. Let's get to bed."
one has a clear conscience, you know "But your consciences are not clear"
In accordance with the program which Landis—with his warpaint on his helmet—preemptively laid siege to Miss Betty Lawson. In a week-long contest this unhered in, Cuny fought stubbornly for the goal, but colllisions—which seemed to afford Miss Betty no little quiet amusement. On the seventh day, when Marken made it clear that she had the blue roadster, she said, "What makes you and Owen freeze up and refuse to talk when I say anything to you." He has done to make you hate him?
"We have never had much to do with him, either of us." Markham evaded. Then, bluntly, "Are you going to marry him, Betty?"
"What makes you think so?"
She langhed. "Do you know of any reason why I shouldn't?"
"Perhaps not any reason that would appeal to you."
"That is dodging!" she retorted brightly. "As a friend don't you think you ought to tell me if there is a reason?"
"Yes; and get myself written down in your black book! No, thank you, my dear."
"All right; don't then. I'll ask Owen. I often want to talk about you and Owen, know how beautifully transparent you are." "Thanks; did you find us so. It's amazing," she said.
"Torahs it is the transparency we were speaking of." Then, "Why won't you tell me why you and Owen are put here, Walt?"
"I have told you. Can't we have a vacation as well as other folks?"
"That is exactly what Owen said yesterday; and it means just as much—or as little. Let me tell you something. Wally, dear; in this little round we are going to be living in you, you get just as much as you are willing to give—and no more."
"Meaning?"
"Right. And the colonel's home and the Smith's-Hillcrest—is a show place."
"But I understand they are not at home."
"Why, indeed? I'm sure I don't know. Where are you taking me today?"
"Distinguished name," she grizzled.
"But I know who they are. Mrs. John
is the daughter of Col. Dexter Baldw-
win, the Tamarinni wolf king."
"Out to meet some friends Starkbuck has found for us : the John Smiths."
In due course the blue roadster was parked in the Hillcrest garage, and he found it. He also found a kindred spirit. And when Smith came home and added his insistence to Corona's anguish that the city should refresh, for Betty accepted the invitation, calling the Stillings house her city hostess knew where she was.
"They are not; they're touring the Yellowstone. It's the Smiths were calling upon. They are running the big ranch in the colone's absence."
After she was through telephoning, Markham called up Landis.
"Any developments?" he asked.
"No." came the answer. "Where are you?"
"No; but nobody has turned up yet. I'm watching the register."
"Out at Hillebrand, and we are stay-ing for dinner. You're not forgetting hat this is the showdown day—the wenty-cloth?"
"Right again. I'll be with you later. Call me if anything breaks loose."
After Smith had smoked an after-
 dinner cigar with his man guest in the
colonel's deed, he said regretfully that
he'd have to excuse himself; that he
had to meet the woutbound Flyer
who was visiting him for his busi-
ness associates from the East.
"It's perfectly all right," Markham assured him. "We'll be going to be, too. I promised Mrs. Stillings I wouldn't keep Betty out late."
When the goodies were said, Smith went with Markham to the garage. "You'll beat me to town," he said; "I'll have to stop and fill up. And that will make all the whisky running from the hills north of us lately, and today the sheriff gave me a tip. It's likely he and some of his deputies may be on the road between here and town. If you're sick, it's harding would be rough with you."
"Much obliged for the hint. I'll be law-abiding."
After they had driven out of the Hillcrest ground, Markham told Betty "Just so you won't be scared if we should happen to be stopped," he said.
"I don't score so easily as all that."
was the roady answer. "Didn't Mr. Skid say he was going to town, too?" He had he to stop and fill up with "gas."
