Alumni and Staff Speak at Banquet of Kansan Board
Tom McNeal, Topeka Editor Tells Students and Grads of Early Hardships
NOW IN GOLDEN AGE
"With all its drawbacks," said Tom McNeal, editor of the Kansas Farmer, Mail and Breeze, to the Kanan journalist who assembled at the annual Kanan board banquet last night. "With all its drawbacks, we are older age in his history of the world."
Mr. McNeal sketched the history of Kanafa life for his hoarers and made a few prophecies about the future, then 75 years ago, he said, "and to show you how mistaken are the leafers who always look back to the past." He wrote that "the thing of condition when I was a boy"
Un at 4. To Bed by 9
He related unusual incident about early Kansas farm life which made his hearers gasp. how one rose at 4 a.m. in the midday heat, and women, who stayed up an hour later to mend clothes—how the schools taught him to dress properly for poor; how he himself had swallowed so great a quantity of confection of lard, sulphur, milk and wheat; how he rid himself of the itch that as a result he was afraid to scratch his back for fear of hurting into her.
How he had to take off his cowhide boots after they had been wet—without sweating; how his pants stuck in the boots; how his mother's ignorance of the tailoring business; how the flies dropped inadvertently into the coffee and the butter and so we were in trouble. How many of them falling short of escape; how the only medicines were calomel, squills, and quinine—and how their skirts, shakers afflicted with ague; how teeth were pulled; how the doctors could spit their tobacco straight or spray as occasion demanded, other interesting kinds of information.
Guests Are Introduced
Mr. McNeal expressed no hope for absolute equality, but said that the industrial revolution had made it possible and necessary for governments to be forced to suppress dissent gradually, he said, "that the strong cannot oppress the weak without themselves being injured by their oppression and that the control of wealth must be for social gain instead of a segregated disgrace."
*Morris Straight*, c31, was toastmaster. He introduced various alumni, among him LaVere Munt, who "surrounded himself in journalism," as Straight said; Lester Sohler, who announced he was still ummaried; William Daugherty, Edgar Showalter, and city Kaanu; Foek Hoeckenhart, Margaret Kilbourne; James Welch, the printer's devil of the Douglas County Republican campaign; Catherine Borth, and Warren Filkin, who had "got out of journalism and became prosperous in the bond business" Mary Bartley and Warren Filkin, members of the journalism faculty.

'Industry Must Protect Unemployed and Society
Head of General Electric Talks on Stabilizing
Labor
Washington, May 6- (UP) —Arounded public opinion must insist that industry solve the unemployment problem for the protection of the worker and one in three U.S. households. General Electric company told the international chamber of commerce.
Swipe said industry itself must meet the problem by stabilizing employment, rather than through taxation for charity can never be effectively done and is at best a make-bake, a method as bad for the company as bad for the client, painful and not desired by the recipient."
He maintained that where seasonable variation in employment is "inherent in the character of production, this factor shall also be included in the cost and be borne by the users of such artworks" (Pastel 2016). He attributed to any benefit plan devised to take care of unemployment in emergency periods.
State Entomologist Says Elms Are Threatened by Worms
Lawrence Trees in Danger
Following investigation by the department of entomology of elm trees in Lawrence, H. B. Hungerford, state entomologist, says that the trees of Lawrence may be permanently injured if care is not taken immediately.
In January the department issued a warning that the trees should be banded as a precaution against the canker worms. Many trees which were not banded at that time have already been seriously injured. An anaesthetic machine is the only means now by which the trees may be freed of the worms.
According to Doctor Hungerford, an epidemic of canker worms upon elm trees for two summers will eventually kill the trees. Last year, he said, was an outbreak of canker worms on elm trees, making it more necessary to take precautions this year.
Bernard Liston, state field entomologist, is in Lawrence today investigating conditions.

A v-shaped building, a V-shaped building with a tower in place of the originally planned rectangular building. This building was designed by Mr. Watkins and the structure of the building was found to cost $15,000. At a meeting held Monday afternoon, Mrs. Watkins expressed a desire to have the original offer by $25,000.

Mr. Green and Professor Russell will act as a committee for the construction of the hospital and Professor Russell and Doctor Canuteson for the purchase of equipment in the building, the approval will be subject to the approval of Mrs. Walkins.
Outside stonework of the building will be Bedford stone of a standard grade similar to that on the front of the library. Excavation work on the building is almost complete and most of the concrete footing has been removed, the carriage down to the blue shale for footing, reaching a $14\frac{1}{2}$ foot depth on the lower side.
