IN DEFENSE OF THE STUDENTS
That students either do not read the pamphlets published by the University or are wholly indifferent to the material contained therein is to be inferred from a recent story in the Kansan. This article was a report from the Secretary to the Chancellor bemoaning the fact that not one single contribution had been received in response to an essay contest with fifty dollars in prizes announced in a pamphlet issued at the time of enrollment last September.
Any student who owned an activity ticket had a chance to win from five to twenty dollars by simply submitting to the Men's Student Adviser an essay of more than five hundred words on the impressions of the student activity ticket, or suggestions or opinions for its improvement. Surely such an offer was worthy of some attention in times like these.
In defense of the student, there are some points to be considered. The deadline for the contest was placed at 5 p.m. February 10, five months after enrollment time. This was too long a time, it would seem, for students to remember, especially when such things of major importance as semester examinations took place in the intervening period.
It might not have been a bad idea to call the students' attention at regular intervals to the fact that 'a contest was being held. An idea presented once can never produce the results possible from frequent allusion to the subject. Campus activities are far too numerous to permit the mere mentioning of a contest of this type to stand foremost in the minds of the students.
Then too, the promoters of the contest seem to have relied entirely upon the pamphlet, or nearly so, as apparently the only other publication was a single paragraph in a story in the edition of the Kansan for September 20.
Perhaps this is the reason the project failed.
Henry Buckle, English historian, once said, "No one can have a firm grasp of any science if, by confining himself to it, he shuts out the light of analogy."
THE LIGHT OF ANALOGY
In trying to give to the student that so-called "well rounded education," colleges require him to take work in several fields. Although at first appearance this would seem to be a good system for giving a liberal education, it usually does not achieve this end. Frequently, instead of a unified mass of knowledge the student's head contains merely a disconnected jumble of history, geology, mathematics, and psychology. Information is not organized in the student's mind. It is like a chain
The statement, voiced nearly a hundred years ago, applies to our modern school system. Colleges and universities today offer courses in many branches of knowledge, but they specialize their work to such an extent that students often do not see the "light of analogy." Particular courses have no relation in their minds.
the links of which are disconnected.
IT'S A SMALL WORLD
What we need in our system of education is a course which combines every branch of human knowledge and which organizes the fragments of college courses into a unified whole. When we get it we shall all have a chance to glimpse the "light of analogy."
No longer can one country thumb its nose at the rest of the world and think that it can prosper without the help of its fellow countries.
Each time propellors whir on wheels revolve in their mad pace on land, air, and sea, the world grows smaller and smaller. In the words of Vernon Nash, professor of journalism in Peiping, China, "the world is shrinking to the size of a neighborhood."
New means of transportation and new ideas have drawn the many countries into a "physically integrated and economic interdependent world."
As an example of the interdependence of countries, Mr. Nash spoke to the journalism classes about the plight of Shantung, a province in China. Fifteen years ago when American women began to bob their hair, the people in this province were thrown into poverty—because 90 per cent of the world's hairstuds were made in Shantung.
As soon as we recognize that this is a small world after all and begin o act like neighbors instead of realeitrant schoolboys, we shall begin to find peace and contentment.
'ARMERS OF THE FUTURE
Legislators, educators, economists, and the world in general are advising youth to go back on the farm as a possible means of solving the depression, and, to some extent, of eliminating it. In imagination these advisers see an ideal situation with the young people of America on the farm forming for the nation a backbone that could not be broken. If the younger men of our country could take their families to the country where living is so much cheaper and where they can be comparatively independent, they would leave the city jobs for the older men not so hard, and much of the unemployment might be solved, they say.
These advisers, however, have overlooked one point. Is the youth of today capable of working on a farm? Not that he would need to know the technical business of farming—many of our most successful tillers of the soil never studied vocational agriculture—but he would need different training from that which the cities have given him.
These city chaps who arise in the morning anywhere between 8 and 10 o'clock and lodge through the day with as little effort as possible, what could they find on the farm for which they are fitted? They would find themselves faced with the problem of getting up at an hour not much later than that at which they are accustomed to going to bed. The soda and sandwich they used to consume for lunch, wouldn't make a healthy meal for a farmer.
Since a jig-saw puzzle or an evening of cards simply exhausts them, they should get along nobly with a plow! No. These powderpuff boys that the cities have been producing for the past few years, who cut their teeth on trashy literature and cheap, melodramatic movies, have no place back on the soil. They wouldn't know what to do with the many opportunities there. They'll have to go on spending their time beating the wolf away from the front door.

Jim didn't argue. He rose ponders
easily and bowed with a queer courtliness.
"That's all right, Miss Peyton. I promised you I wouldn't try any police training," she said. "But help me to help, not hurt, and I can't help unless I get the truth. But I ain't advising you to tell me a thing you don't know." "Let's just be quiet," she said, much obliged—and good night!
"A fight, Pat Tatney was a big man. Larry is perhaps more powerful. So far as I know, Mr. Thrayer was not a coward, and no man can very well permit another to enter him without—without—well, without presenting it."
He moved toward the door. Reagan inwardly seething at Haney's stolpid it, followed reluctantly.
"Who?"
one met Jim's kindly eyes levelly,
"I was afraid."
She faced them bravely. "I suppose I'm a fool," she said. "But I believe I can trust you. If you don't mind me, I'll just be glove to tell you the whole truth."
"I see. . . . And why were you afraid of a fight?"
As Jim opened the door, the girl spoke.
Even if Hanvey did not press his advantage, Renan was fighting to restrain his own impatience—and the sense of entitlement that the big chance; an opportunity to gather important facts from a woman who had been locked up for two days
"because of the scandal," she answered promptly, "larry is an instructor here. He is about to earn his degree." It wouldn't have been nice. **_**
"You weren't afraid of any serious results that is physical results?"
WITH, FREESH
"Vog Mice?"
"Yes, Miss?"
But Reagan was a good sport. If he didn't understand Hawley's slow, friendly, ponderous methods, he could have done better. He had offered the ease to the fat man.
"No. Of course my sympathies were all with Larry, and I knew he could handle Mr. Thayer."
Jim focused his eyes on the tooth pick. "You are in love with Larry Welch?"
Her cheek grew white, but she did not evade.
"Does he knew it?"
"So that he'd have to drop Ivy Wick—or else she would drop him. And that would make it unnecessary for Larry to interfere."
"Yes. And I've told it to you straight because I believe Larry is innocent."
"I hope so . . . Now would you mind telling me what happened when you went to see Thayer at the fraternity house?"
I see. They before yesterday. Lauren touched him when she foolishly fooling with his kid sister. He learned that you could not marry him because you were married to another man—their sister. She said the blackmail which Thasher had practiced on you. It makes a rather damning claim.
"I went there with a definite object in mind. Mr. Messner was a girl cannot bear to lose him." She rose from house without stalling all kinds of gas gun. I told him that some that he wanted the choice to nuance our marriage. You see, I felt that I could spike his guns that way."
"How long has he known it?"
"I think he has known it for a long time, but I didn't put it into words until—until day before yesterday."
"Woo-ee, suppose we start with your visit to Larry Wolch. What did you do? How was it married to Thuray? Was he here?" "Noo. I would ask that exactly."
"Because . . . well, there a
nother detail we left out. Larry was
quite determined that Pat should not
go with Ivy any more. I had a right
to seal his lips about my marriage to
Pat, but I had no right to that man.
I thought I could use it with Ivy,
but I said knew him not to go
over until I had seen Pat myself."
"You were still afraid of what might happen between Larry and Thayer."
"Yes. He wanted to go right over, but I begged him not to." "WP?3."
They seated themselves once more and Tony spoke in a brittle voice.
The thing seemed to shock him."
"Did he say anything about seeing Thayer?"
"Because I wanted to see Pat first."
"For what reason, Miss Peyton?"
"Yes-and I regretted having told Larry. But things happened so fast and I had been under such a strain for years that I—I just wanted someone to talk to."
"While you were in Thayer's room . . . ?"
"He was furious, of course. We quarrelled bitterly. I suppose I was an angry as he was. And then I left." "Where was he when you left, Miss Laura?"
"Alive?"
She caught her breath sharply. "Of course, . . . Surely you don't think . . . ?"
"Standing near the dresser."
"I had to ask you that. I'm sorry.
Did you know that Larry Welch has been arrested?"
"Do you realize that everything you have told me serves to incriminate him?"
"Yes." She fung her head back, "I don't believe the truth can hurt anybody. I know Larry didn't do it, just as I knew that I did. I没能 told the plain, straight truth, and that's all. It's what Larry would have me
"It isn't what he has done," said Jim softly. "He hasn't been honest with us."
"And why isn't that the truth?"
"If he couldn't be. He gave me his word that he wouldn't tell anybody I was Pat Thayer's wife."
"I can't tell you why, Miss Peyton,
a lie. I'll bet my right hand that
when Larry Welch left that fraternity
house. But Jaleya was dead. And
she's gone."
She did not indulge in dramas.
She merely sat very still and her body seemed to get cold as ice.
She stared at the huge figure opposite.
"Then," she gasped, "you think Larry killed him?"
Harvey met look for look. And she searched the moonlike face for a vexation of reassurance, saw nothing but grim honesty.
"I can't say that, Miss Pepeton," he
"I要anded gently. "I do believe that he
led when he said Thayer was alive
and now and now know why," "Why,
then?"
"To shield you. He had just learned your secret. He knew—probably that you had been to see Thayer. And if he didn't kill Thayer, then he found the body when he got there and saw her. It was an act of assassination as old as romance. But at any rate, it was a pretty fine thing for him to do, because by his own admission Thayer was alive while he was being executed. That must have done the killing."
"Larry didn't do it, Mr. Hanvey. I feel that."
The big man smiled slightly. "I don't know. Do you?" "I didn't kill him."
"So do I. But if he didn't—who
did?"
She shook her head, "I don't know, ..."
"It wasn't Larry, you say."
"It wasn't Larry, you say."
"He couldn't do a thing like that—even in a fight."
"it wasn't one."
"Is that—is that a question, Mr. Hanver—or a statement?"
Hanvey rose and shook his head. "This ain't any nine cmich, Miss Peyton. If I'm to believe what I heart; you didn't kill him and neither did Larry Cox. You looks like if I carry the investigation for enough I'll find out he n'int'd dead."
Suddenly he started forward: "I'm sorry. Peyton. I didn't mean to crack any burn boles. Honest. I didn't. I just a d—d blundering jackass."
Out in the courtyard of the jail,
John Reagan turned admiringly to his
communion.
"I'll hand it to you. Jim: you're a marvel. But how in h-1 do you do it?"
"What do you think, John: Welch or Miss Peyton?"
"Oh! I dunnn, John. Shooting square with 'em, maze. And maybe decide it. And maybe decide it. And maybe decide it. So dam sane, I wouldn't understand a lie if I heard one."
"Neither," snapped Reagan. "I was Max Vernon, just like I said at first. It happened this way, and I will thank you. You went there just like she said. That went to Thaer's room and killed him — not meaning to kill him when he went in, maybe, but doing it here. In larry. Larry Welch gets there a little quicker. Things Thaor did. It puts the her body stuff. What do you think of that?"
"Sounds reasonable," commented Jim guarrelly. "Anyhow, I reckon there nint any objection to kettin" Miss Peyton on bond, is there?
"None whatever," agreed Reagan.
He rubbed the palms of his hands together. "I feel like we're getting somewhere at last."
"So do L." grinned Jim Hanvey.
"The thing I am puzzled about is this:
