One Cherry sister, of such fame only a comparatively few years ago, will testify to that. She has just asked the tax assessor to return to her the dollar that she paid for dog tax last year. The ungrateful dog has run away, and she hasn't even a friend, much less a dollar to waste on him. She is one of the trio who became famous for its unique method of gaining a full house at the theater in which they were acting, not so very long ago. They sold the tomatoes, cabages and rotten eggs to the crowd before the act so that they would be ready to use it after it was over. They became not only famous but rich as well, from the proceeds of the act. This sister had adopted the dog for company, when she found him on the street, alone during the bitter cold winter. But fame and fortune are fickle, and even the dog has run away. With graduation time drawing near, the Thoughtful Freshman suggests that the digitised seniors should be getting busy at attracting attention, for they will not find much when turned out into the wide-wide-world. THE AIM OF EDUCATION Very often education has been defined as the process of making a man good. Some people would probably alter it to read that the purpose of education is to make a good man better. But whatever may be the purpose, in a little back up we can student and instruct in the same light. Education, in making a man better, should not concern itself entirely with imperfacing facts and making the student think on so-called weighty problems. It should also work toward making the student have a better relation to his surroundings and to the people with whom he comes into contact. More social middies are developed from the persons who do not have the proper social contacts than are developed from anything else; that is to say, who are not prepared to meet their fellow men in a common and intelligent effort toward the highest degree of happiness possible for all. When vacation arrives, students will probably continue to burn that "midnight oil", but it won't be for illumination purposes, comments the Thoughtful Freshman. THE NEW LAUREATE John Wahlbeen - book-thief We shall have to need our eurexus, we will have to need "Daber" "Sard Harker" and "Ofdnan" "The Widow in Bye Eve," the man who wandered over the earth by sea in the day of wooden ships and iron men; the one-time har-boy in New York; the prose and the realist in verse, taking the sedate Inurestehip of the Wind-ers, to succeed Bridges and Tennyson. Kipling, looked upon as a "logical choice," in spite of his slighting references to the Widow of Windor, may be disappointed. And yet Kipling had a definite vogue, and it is the fate of vogues that they pass. Kipling's star has waned decidedly. Masefield, who has much of Kipling's energy and less of his journal wears better. Most college students are familiar with some of Masseel's poetry: "Seawever," "The West Wind," "Quinquennium" of Nineveh, all these are favorites. "Reyward the Fos" is popular and incidentally is a good reading as well, but it is written pro adventure stories that will make your hair stand on end. There can not be much objection raised to his appointment to the laureatehip. The verdict of future generations—that is to say, his "true" evaluation—is not our concern today. Masfield is a popular poet in the best sense of the term; he sings for us and his songs have beauty for us. "Giant Man Killed in Chicago" (Headline)—To do something differently they had to pick out a giant. MORALS Every one has certain moral and social viewpoints which are absolute. The views of others on these points are different unless they unseen without modifications. And so it is with certain people on the campus. The younger generation has gone to the dogs. The bow-wows are about us. Why? Because younger people can smile and enjoy themselves at certain times when the so-called pavements of morality feel a little elem. But there is little to fear. Another generation will see some of the present day youth gone to seed. They will be ready to crab about the youth of the day. Youth of that time, on the other hand, will go serenely on their way. Let us hope that they will always disregard the bally-hopeful mournings of those who have lost their orientation. THE REIGN OF THE BEAST Sherman, Texas, will be a long time in living down the reputation it acquired yesterday. Any town where mob passion can dominate so completely over all civilization must have something wrong with it as a town. Whatever exaggerations may be found in the sensational details of the crime, the fact is likely to remain that a man was buried to death by a horse of human animals whom no determined attempt was made to control. The story is revolving; partly because so much more has been told than commonly is told, and the elec- tion of mania mana are so clearly to be seen. Texas itself will have something to live down. Rangers were rushed to the scene, with orders to stop the trouble "if possible." That an order like this must be qualified in that way is an indictment that falls in the end upon Texans. Vacation is advanced but four weeks. Before final examinations must be written and no little amount of preparation for them will be wanted. Full time should not be devoted to study alone, since the time of year is here in which exercise is necessary. Short outdoor games should be played daily, if possible. The change of thought and environment is recursive to the mind and to physical fitness. The well-rounded day for study includes concentration when at study as well as enthusiastic exercise for "fallow" periods. Students should give special care to leisure. Success in the remainder of the school term demands enjoyed recreation, as well as in the past. HOW ABOUT LEISURE? A COMMON HUMANITY The ideas of the German people and those of the American people are the same, declared the German ambassador to America in Kansas City. Of course they are; and so are those of America and France and Italy and Russia. All are composed of human beings living in the same kinds of groups with similar pasts and similar aspirations toward the future. Thirteen years ago one who had said such a thing would have been mobbed. The hysteria of war, the constant harping on American supremacy, and on the inferiority of everyone else, were the creeds of American then, as they are of every country in every war. It is strange that the fear of something unknown should ever cause the members of peaceful and idealistic families to rise and fight members of Application may now be made for the American Bankers Association Foundation loan scholarship of $295 for education in economics.

Decrease in Sunspots and Ionization Will Bring Better Radio Reception THEODORE PERKINS. President. We need a perspective large enough to teach us the fatality of war, we need to see that all men have common interests, common aims, common experiences, and that all suffer through physical conflict. **Washington** - The strength of radio broadcast signals that bring music and entertainment to American homes, will increase the risk of a decrease in the spots on the sun, according to Dr. H. T. Steinen, Director of the Observatory, Ohio Wesleyan University. *Studies during the last few years indicate that there are cosmic causes at work which may profoundly influence the atmosphere which these radio waves traverse. Probably the sun is the one source of these changes in our terrestrial affairs. Every radio fan knows that daytime reception is vastly poorer than nighttime reception, and thus there is the most obvious exhibition of the effect of the sun's rays on the atmosphere. Day and night reception vary greatly from time to time for what has often seemed to be no good reason at all. It is also possible that searches we have to come have to理事 much of the cause for this varying behavior in the earth bound in its atmosphere itself.* Doctor Von Prittwit shows a very tactful reconciler. To be sure, Germans have their differing manners but underneath them are all alike. lashed at Newton Centre, and Cambridge, Mass. Delaware, Ohio; and Pamela, Calif.; and correlating their observations. Doctor Steven discovered in 18th cycle in runups as well as the familiar 11 year cycle. Using this new data predicted in 1928 that radio reception would become even worse than it it then was. The runups had not yet passed. His forecast was fulfilled. Thou Trusty Guardian of my Complexion The year 1520 should show a general decrease in sunspot numbers as the year waxes, with a corresponding increase. The year 1530 will be broadcast zone. By the very end of 1530 and the beginning of 1541, the maximum may be evident. By 1531, Love's labors will never be lost, if you trust your complexion to a Jackie compact "rose-leaf" skin, and keep your "school-shirt" daintiness, put your faith in our other babies in the kitchen --- and HEL be in the market for a soilitier! J. C.PENNEY CO. however, it is believed we shall be so far from the maximum of the 11-year period that the secondary maximum will be reached upon radio reception and allied electro-magnetic phenomena as have the maxima振幅 of 1928-29. The situation in the earth's atmosphere may be expected to continue with fluctuations through the next six years, but in 1954 this peak was as recent as the last minute. Ephraim Miller Replies to Chancellor's Letter "The greatest and best of all the educational institutions of the country," is the opinion Barnhill Mumler, professor of history at the University, holds of the University of Kansas. this eulogy was made in a recent letter to Chancellor E. H. Lindley from Professor Miller in answer to a letter of congratulations which the Chancellor gave to the occasion of his ninety-seventh birthday, which occurred April 25. Seventy-five years ago, arts Professor Miller won a prize at Albany College with the class of 55. He taught mathematics here from the end of 79× to 110× when he retired or was placed on leave. Of 88 years of married life, Mr. and Mrs Miller are now living in Pasadena. Below is the letter the Chancellor received from the professor emeritus a loyal Jayhawker for 60 years. 558 N. Lake Ave., Pasadena, Calif. April 28, 1930. Dr. E. H. Lindley, Chancellor K. U. Md. Doctor: My wife and I thank you very hearty for your congratulations and good wishes. I hope that you understand because it comes from one of the greatest and best of all the educational institutions in the world. May the commencement of 1830 b the greatest and best in the history of K. U. We congratulate you upon the splendid condition of the Kansas University of 1890. May the institution continue to grow and bless us. Sincerely, Sarah E. Miller Plate Lunch 35c Sunday Noon and Evenings Blue Mill Sandwich Shop Price Reduction! Holeproof Hosiery and K.T.C.

"How can we make it better?" is the constant cry of manufacturers of advertised merchandise. Why? It might well be pride in the product that bears their good name. Often it is. But not always. It's just good, hard-headed business, mostly. The improvement of a product that is already considered satisfactory makes that product play a more definite part in the life of the user. It wins and holds an added loyalty, and, of course, added business. Products which are advertised are being studied continuously by their makers in order that they may be more and more useful and helpful to you in your daily life. Isn't that the sort of merchandise you want? It's all presented in a straightforward, honest way in the advertisements, day after day. Read them for economy's sake!
