Modern Landscape Gardening Is Not Different From That of Old Times
Board of Regents Are Against Student Cars
Since few if any new devices or media have been invented or discovered in these hundreds of years to improve the science of landscape archi- tecture, a man named Gunin has always had access to all the potential resources of landscape beauty.
Trees still grow, flowers bloom, vines climb, and waters run as they did in the past. We love the lover of the same nature that he was then. We read that every tree of the Garden of Eden was good for food and nourishment; so we planted a vineyard; Solomon wrote, "I made me a garden and crechebars, and I made trees in them of all kinds of fruit."
Action Is in Accordance With Requests Made
by Councils
The action of the board is in line with the recommendations submitted to the Chancellor last spring by the two student governing associations here.
The Men's Student Council at a meeting of the women's ownership of cars by K. U. Students stating that insofar as it is possible their ownership should be dis-
All students who own and maintain a campus at Kansas state schools must have a pass to attend. This was the decision of the Board of Regents at a meeting in抬阁, Iowa on May 24th. The Graduate School represented the University because of the absence of Chancellor Richard E. Towles.
During the twelve months from May, 1530 to May, 1531 seven students at the University lost their lives in automobile accidents. Following the tragedy of the fall, five students killed on highway No. 40 between here and Topka, a joint council of the two governing associations submitted a resolution to the Chancellor asking that written permission for cars be de-loaded to comply with the full responsibility upon parents.
Heads of institutions are instructed to send a letter to all parents and guardians including the above ruling order, until blank to be filled out and returned.
Students on registering shall indicate if they are to keep a car while at the institution. Students who shall be incomplete until the above permit properly signed is filed. The penalty for violation shall be the same as for non-compliance of any other rule of the institution.

In the latter part of the nineteenth century the term gained common usage with philosophers, which were their favorite schools, contained walks, lawns, benches, tables, awnings, ponds, and gardens. Of the better homes have these same beauties and conveniences. From what we read now we could hardly distinguish between the old and the modern. The architecture landscape design have lasted through many years, but a simple and natural layout has also been tried. Perhaps the architectural architecture will swing to extreme simplicity, but even if it does the devices already used to create landscape beauty will not be abandoned but will remain.

Memorial Union Building to Offer New Service
Center
Installation of New Foun tain to Create Social
Recent improvements around the Urban Memorial Building during the summer vacation promise to make that edition easier. The building was originally erected Newman Jeffrey, recently appointed manager of the building, hopes to bring to a final realization what former architect Alumna alumni have only dreamed about.
The most outstanding improvement being made at the present time is the installation of a soda fountain and a water feature. Although workmen are proceeding rapidly with the installation, much is to be done before the final opening of this new addition is to be made. The water feature is installed, and work now turns to the building and placing of booths in the fountain room. The room is being finished with woodwork of green oak; the planters designed and built by the university.
To match the general scheme and array of this woodwork, the fountain itself is constructed of green tile, supplied with green glassware and green table supplies of the same design and color. An inlaid shell mold also follows the planned design and color scheme of the other fixtures.
It is estimated by Jeffrey that approximately 75 or 100 students can be accommodated in the fountain room. The booths are systematically arranged, alternating in doubles and triples to take full advantage of all available space.
"Student help is to be used," stated Jeffrey, "thereby helping what few we may who are dependent upon some work to finish their university career."
Free Night Planned
Although not all arrangements have been definitely made, a big free night is being planned probably in conjunction with the day they are being made to give a certain amount of free merchandise away with the event and purchased for that particular variety.
Further improvements about the new building include new furnishing of the upper basement and, in connection with the new fountain, complete furnishing of the lower basement.
It is hoped that the council officers will be ready for occupancy by the opening of school or soon after.
"It is our hope to have the fountain room complete and ready for service by Sept. 10." Jeffrey recently announced that his team was intended to become the center of all student affairs and to date that intention has certainly not been fulfilled. However, he continued, "it is our hope that you will be definite step toward that fulfillment."

ESKIMO ATTIRE AMONG MANY ITEMS AT UNIVERSITY MUSEUM
In Arctic Lands Women Seem to Give More Attention to Comfort Than to Style in Clothing
Even in the Arctic region where hu-
bing is on the appearance of the
hurricane herds, they dress their
clothes with a fancy touch
and wear an outfit to be seen in the specimens of Eakima clothing found in the uppermost room of Dyche museum on the K. U.
This little room, on the rose and just under a sky-light, is the *Eskimo land* of the museum. It is the most interesting people and their other belongings are almost tempting enough to make one want to spend a vacation in the Arctic. The children seem to differ somewhat as they do in most countries. But no such striking difference among modern countries may be noticed. Men and women alike are cloaked from head to foot in coat, cap, pant, and boots. They wear thick, sturdy suffice the men, but color and design

Stripes and spots are arranged to create design according to their taste and fancy. This taste that is satisfies you is the kind ever the case. Evidently they are as the women we have always known. In these respects the Eskimo woman uses her hands to make others consider themselves more civilized than the people of the North. On the other hand the Eskimo woman may boast of the fact that she is not a native from Paris or an institution from Paris. Judging from the observers standpoint, she sanely makes her clothes for warmth and comfort and then adds a touch of color.
