THURSDAY, JANUARY 7. 1932 SUNDAY SHOWS Those students who have objected to the scarcity of amusements in Lawrence on Sunday will no doubt rejoice at the announcement of Sunday picture shows starting January 10. Following a long bitter fight in Wichita for Sunday amusements, Judge John C. Pollock of the United States District Court recently granted an injunction prohibiting state or county officials from interfering with Sunday movies in Wichita. Now 40 other towns have followed suit by allowing Sunday movies to be opened. Wherever such a move has been inaugurated in this state it has met with strenuous objection from certain groups of church people. They feel that Sunday shows would hurt the evening services. That may be true in some cases but the church leaders have probably overestimated the theater's power to reduce church attendance. There seems to be no strong contention that Sunday shows will seriously reduce University student church attendance. Regretably, only a small percentage of the student body attends church regularly, and those who do attend almost exclusively go to the morning services. And those who have the habit of going twice on Sunday will hardly be distracted by a movie. Ordinally, students find that they have more time for amusements on the week ends than they do in the middle of the week. And they are going to get entertainment if they have to go to neighboring towns for it. So it is much better that they can get Sunday entertainment in Lawrence than elsewhere. "Question 6 in Death of Farmer in Night Club." Headline from New York Journal. You can take a boy out of the country . . . BATHTUBS AND FARMING The federal Bureau of Census has once more come forth with some startling information which should relegate the Saturday night bath to a relatively minor tradition in the lives of the country men. The Bureau has tapped its ever resourceful supply of information and come to the conclusion that the American farmer prefers his telephone to a bathtub. Figures prove it. Just as New York theatrical producers have their own preferences for blondes, brimettes, and red-heads, so the farmer has his preference for telephones, plumbing, and electric lights in the order named. This startling announcement may prove any number of things. There are telephones in 34 percent of all farm homes in the United States, whereas there are bathtubs in only 15 percent of the entire country. The farmers of Iowa prefer telephones to bathtubs, while the agrarians in Massachusetts prefer their Saturday night swim to outside communication. The Bureau's whole report just goes to show that there is a vast difference between farmers in Massachusetts and those in Iowa. It's a far cry from the bathtub to the telephone. But to get back to the farmers in Massachusetts and Iowa, perhaps the root of the trouble encountered by national farm organization movements lies at the bottom of these bathtub and telephone opinions. Some day, when surplus wheat at forty cents a bushel is a more unpleasant memory in the hearts of American farmers, we may find the Iowa farmers carrying a portable bathtub and the Massachusetts tillers of the soil extolling the praises of television. In view of this conjecture and if farm relief continues to be a permanent expression in the American language, we suggest that the bathtub and telephone commission be appointed to delve into this question and suggest a remedy to harmonize opinion. Then maybe the farmers can get together with their telephones and bathtubs and get the price of wheat where it belongs. INCARCERATION AGAIN Three hundred and fifty-odd days and those little Christmas trees down around the new water tank ought to be about ready to celebrate. Mahatma Gandhi has again been imprisoned by the British, and this act has caused his oldest son, with whom he is bound by deep ties of affection and understanding, but who has always disagreed with his policy of non-violent resistance to go over to his side. This movement on the part of one individual, who despite his close affiliation personally with the leader of the movement has always opposed it, shows what may become the attitude of many others in India who have not yet joined the cause and accepted the leadership of Gandhi. The Moslems have never associated themselves in any but the most necessary ways with the larger group, the Hindus, to which class Gandhi belongs. India is torn by many forces, perhaps the greatest of which is religion. There are several other religious groups besides the two most important ones, all pulling in different directions. If by some spirit, perhaps Gandhi, himself, perhaps realization of their common cause by British treatment of him, all of these forces are brought together, there is a potential force that Great Britain will never be able to hold or control. Consider the case of the Irish Free State, composed of people far more kindred to the English than the brown people of India, and of their long but finally successful fight for liberty. Passivity, as opposed to the activity of the western world, is a vital life force of the East, and in its way is quite as powerful. Will the peoples and classes of India find in Gandhi the focal point for the unification that is inevitably to come? The action by Gandhi's son is vastly significant. The holiday season's over and must have been a merry time adding from the number of college weddings in the society colleges. According to William Randolph Heast, the Democratic campaign slogan "Hee! Hee! We're coming back!" is a "truly asinine motto." Well, .. guess that is the nature of the brute. Our Contemporaries From The Columbia Missourian LOW COST READING --process books. It is small, light in weight and resembles a lorgnette in appearance. The production, will be one dollar. Its mechanism has been so perfected that it can be used to display. An invention that promises a reduction of the cost of books from their resent price to a little more than 35% ents per book when produced in editions of 10,000 has been used by Roan Admiral Brady A. Fake, retired from the United States Navy, who has been working to effect the invention during the last twelve years. An edition of 20,000 soils would be made on paper of a higher quality, than goes into the present two dollar novel.

WOMEN'S PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL: TAU SIGMA: British Royal Family Has Tedious Life Attending Numerous Public Functions But newspaper and magazines may be revolutionized, too. Even with special editions, papers and magazines would hardly exceed four of the strips used in the Fisker process. What the Fisker company does lead to in the publishing business is problematic. Certainly some factors must change if the Fisker process comes to an end. The only solution by the buying public is probably the only solution for a situation that is sure to arise in a world that crowds the newest and most efficient ideas. London, Jan. 7—(UP)—it's not all fun being royalty. These public functions, one after another, day after day, onlyiffering in their titles, become very Here's what the British royal family recently had to put an with: repeal the Treaty of Paris, King of England, the Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Duchess of York, Prince George, Princess Mary, the Duke of Kent, the Earl of Derby, and faithful between them 13 colonies.
