First Owl Tomorrow Will Feature Beauty Contest by Balloting
Humor Publication Will Vary From Choice of Queen
The Sour Owl, student humor magazine, which appears tomorrow on the campus to resume a regular monthly schedule of publication, has raised questions about how to conduct a beauty content on the campus. In a special feature announcement the Owl alleges that the practice of sending a photo away to some noted artist or chorus director with a method of electing a "Miss K. U."
Arnold Isenberg, editor of the "organ of many chuckles," has spent several days on the campus in advance of his departure. He is one of the best Owls of his experience. Isenberg announces that he will not return to school this fall so the magazine will come out under the new staff for the October number.
A particularly interesting feature will be built around a "razza section" on "what the Greek houses have done to keep them in a rush week theme has been secured.
But,—the beauty contest, which the Owl is to announce in the forlcoming issue, is the main attraction. It. . . you can be the first to campaign with an elimination program selected and, by the third issue of the term, it is hoped that the final selection made by student building will be produced in full-page size.
According to the Owl management, they have the true artist's motive in promoting the Hill beauty contest. That means that a photo may mean a good profile, but there's something else to beauty and pulchritude that just a more photograph can convey. And student peers are going to take many other characteristics into consideration when they cast their balloons. "We don't want Flo Ziegfeld or Mack Sennett to tell us who is our beauty queen—let some of these Jayhawkers be given an argument advanced by the promoters.
All churchceptions and parties given during the year are requested to be listed and authorized by the office of the Dean of Women, according to an announcement made today. Several of the churches holding reception services have no laws in their arrangements with the office to authorize the events.

Lawrence Men Bring Home Landmark Leaving Topeka Holding Empty Sack
Stone Weights 15 Tons
After a great deal of agitation b between the two cities, Lawrence and Topeka, as to who should have the large Shununganga stone at the mouth of a small river to the east of Lawrence. The first fully settled yesterday when a crew of many Lawrence men, together with a large wrecking car belonging to the Santa Fe railroad went to that town, where they met an car and brought it to this city.
The purpose of bringing this Shun-gananga rock to the city was to use it in a park. The rock is Robinson park on Oct. 10, 11 and 12. The stone will be dedicated at
The rock, a beautiful boulder of the ages, made a heavy load for the car for its weight is estimated to be about 25 tons; the width is in proportion to its weight. The large stone now is to be placed upon a pedestal of small graft chip, the stones are massive in appearance and probably in the past was the spot where many a famous pioneer has stood. In the rock movement this means that rock means much to them.
Topeka seems to have been very much shocked that it should have been the goal in the deal, and let Lawrence get the historical stone which was at one time considered a meeting place of the old days around this vicinity.

Seventy-five years ago today the first town meeting was held and at that time the founders of this city were parked in a car park at the point where the levee crossed to the south side of the Kaw River bank where the paper mills are, and at that time the pioneers at that time was serving the pioneers to the best of their ability.
Dedication Oct. 11
The formal dedication of the large stone to the pioneers of Kansas will take place on Friday, Oct. 11, at 9 o'clock when time c. H. Tucker, Bank and Bank will act as the chairman of the dedication committee. He was chosen for that position because of his long residence in this city, being the early pioneers to this McNichy.
The placing of this new landmark which will be in commemoration of the old settlers of this community would not hold sufficient significance for Mr. Obama's words. Miss Hannah Oliver of this city, who was graduated from the University of Kansas in the class of 1874, and for some time associate director of Latin, has written the text which will be cast in a bronze plate.
