MORE HANDBALLS
Students are being urged to play more handball, yet they are often forced to exercise in some other manner because the check room has no handball to supply. Any one who has a "gym" basket will testify that it is extremely inconvenient to keep a handball of his own; that is the reason a supply is supposed to be kept on hand. Time after time recreation-seeking ask for the use of a handball, and are told that there are none to be had. Even if one is available, it is likely to be "dead" and practically worthless to those who like a fast ball.
Each article checked out must be turned in again, or part of the deposit fee is retained to cover the loss. If a student wishes to keep a gymnasium handball rather than buy one of his own, the athletic department is at no loss, since the money to replace it is supplied automatically.
Fully a dozen live-bouncing handballs should be ready for use at all times. That number would keep the courts supplied, even if they were all in use. Whenever a ball disappears, it should immediately be replaced with a new one. A little care would remedy this bothersome defect, and would materially increase the service of Robinson gymnastics to the men students.
SHRINE TO BURNS
Robert Burns, author of "For A That and A That," the famous humm to human brotherhood, is soon to have a shrine in America. The celebration in honor of his 170th anniversary has just been held. A tract of ten acres at Massapequa Park, Long Island, has been obtained and within five months a duplicate of the "Aud Clay Biggin," birthplace of the Scottish poet, will appear. The Fract will be called Alloway, in honor of the hamlet near Ayr where Burns was born.
It is fitting the poet should be commemorated so soon after the ratification of the Kellogg Peace Pact, as his poem "For A! That and A! That!" is said to be a prophecy of the pact.
land in the recognition of Burns's genius. New York and other american cities paid himribute at his centennial in 1859. A fellowship is to be established for the encouragement of the study of Burns's writing and to promote readings, concerts, costume pageants and pilgrimages to the noted shrine at Alloway, Scotland.
PITY THE CRITIC
If the plaintiff wins the suit for slander against Sir Joseph Duvene for denying that La Bele Førerienne is an original painting by Leonardo da Vinci, the status of art critics throughout the country will suffer a reversal. Up to this time critics have been considered practically immune from the laws of slander and libel. It has been generally decided that critics may give "expert judgment" if there is no malice intended.
Sir Joseph has been called upon to give reasons for his judgment, and to describe the various points of tech-
alque displayed in the picture that caused him to arrive at his judgment. The court will have to adjudicate the qualifications of various critiques and the points of technique and style of an artist which have previously been established by the mysterious "they" of critical circles. If the decision of this court is accepted, if, for instance, the Louvre acknowledges a New York decision which would simultaneously decide the authenticity of its La Belle, criticisms in the future may face legislative supervision. If a "jury of peers" is capable of judging the work of famous artists, such a trial on a little larger scale might transform one of our less preventive museums into a world-famed gallery and discredit the Louvre.
JARDINE RETIRES FROM CABINET
The retirement of William M. Jardine from the office of secretary of agriculture, effective March 4, definitely eliminates him as a member of Hoover's cabinet. The former head of the Kansas State Agricultural College will become counsel and adviser for the Federated Fruit and Vegetable Growers of New York, at a reported salary of $280,000 a year, with a privilege of renewing his contract. Jardine who became the first cabin officer from Kansas was little known in Washington at the time of his appointment. He made a speech in Kansas against the fixing of prices on farm products by legislation, which brought him into prominence in the East. After Hoover read Jardine's speech he recommended him to President Coolidge as a successor to Gore, who had to resign because he had been elected governor of West Virginia. Consequently, Jardine was offered the post, which he accepted, taking office March 5, 1925.
The promotion of Secretary Jardin may be looked upon as a just reward to a man who has long been actively interested in all phases of the agricultural problem. While in Eansas he succeeded in developing the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station to the place where it is recognized all over the world as a model for farming activities. His later extensive study of co-operative selling fits him particularly well for the new office which he will assume. While secretary of agriculture, Jardine was opposed to the equalization fee of the McNary-Haugen bill, and steadfastly protested against the sc-called price fixing on farm products by legislation. Kansas regrets the loss of Jardine as a benefactor of agriculture but will rejoice with him over his deserved presentation.
EDDY VERSUS CHURCH COUNCH
The lack of agreement on the subject of companionate marriage and birth control, between Sherwood Eddy, international secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America is typical of opinions throughout the country. The conservatives indorse the old, tried mode of living. The Council and its plan for the home represent this element. It argues, and very logically, that companionate marriage is not based on a purposeful idea for the future but on a self-inindulgent disregard for the future. Mr. Eddy is on the far side of the field, arguing for a biological rather than a sentimental view of the question. His theme, however, he outlines as the fundamental one of clean living and right thinking.
As a matter of fact, the report of the Council, dealing with "ideals of love and marriage", and the views of Mr. Eddy on more modern and practical ways of dealing with the question, lead to a single end. Mr. Eddy, instead of trying to stop the world in its career, is attempting to make laws and customs that will run parallel with modern indifference and haunt instead of opposing them. He is offering a substitute for a tradition that is dying out. The Council is clinging to an ideal which must change with the increasing interest of women in affairs outside of the home, and with the enormous industrial development which has added so many economic difficulties to the original one of marriage. The two views find a common ground in the desire for a wholesome and substantial basis for modern marriage.
Primitive Mining Camps of Mexico Aided by Metallurgy Yield Fortunes
Mexico City - Feb. 15,—Primitive mining camps that were buried by Aztec vessels to fill the tilted list of Montzura before the discovery of America, are still tonye the scenes of slums of the largest mining enterprises, in Mexico, while newly discovered properties are rare.
This fact was brought out in a report just made by the Mission Commission of Mines to President Portea GG will inform present conditions of the mining operation.
Although it is the mother industry of Mexico, the foremer of agricultural as it was also in California, it has been modernized only in the last thirty years.
When Montezuma first sent tepapi gifts of gold to Cortez, Indians were working mines already in campsi still famous in Guatemala, Guanajuito, Hildago and other states. The native methods were primitive and only jiche veins near the surface levels were followed.

What passes for policy is usually simply a reflection of the activity or the person who must cover a certain office or event. This is unavoidable under a system in which the Kansan is a laboratory for a specific activity, and the effort is made to check up on the activities of reporters, it is impossible that all of the unless notice is sent to the Kansan office, for the reporter naturally does not inform his instructors of his dereform.

The obvious benefit to the consumer needs no emphasis. He will get the egg of weight and quality he bought for his own use, be fed by distinctions, not in a few cases imaginary.

SYMPHONIES IN WAX
Manufacturers of the fine vitreous made claim only a near-perfect reproduction for their product. They admit that the recording of a gymnast's routine was not quite perfected or quite perfection of the original. The makers of mechanical pianes realize that no art of theirs can give to a pianist the artistry of the original performer.
Not so the ears of the movie world. With calm concert they claim absolute power. Their blazing newspaper columns resemble nothing so much as the patent medicine advertisements in the late 1970s, and then made them illegal. Perception is their keynote. According to their versatility, the movie symphonies wax reproduce the movie symphonies with an exertitude and a precision that is unassured. Not a scratch, but a very fine one. Their beauty.

THE NEW METHOD
Education in the colleges and universities of the United States is finding itself on the portals of a new era. The old method of teaching by requiring students to "garrot back" knowledge from memory, is already gone.
Now, educators are gradually but surely getting away from the conception that a professional education can be paralleled out along with the same diploma that marks the complete fourth years of undergraduate work.
The Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration is a good example of this new tendency. . .
The Harvard idea is to take men who, through work toward their un-

dergraduate degrees, have decided that they want to forake undergraduate postpositions for a couple of years, and intend to get a mage and comprehemer degree in suchness methods. These students which include many who have returned from important positions in the business world, are men who have attained the maturity necessary to self-supervise, and so must be suited to their abilities and tastes.
They have already received a foundation of a liberal education, which was unhampered by hirsutum-pronatal study in their time.

When that system is completely extended to the fields of law, medicine, journalism, the sciences, and the arts, the education curriculum will take a forward step.
WHEN GEORGE V SMILED
On Saturday King George was borne from his room in Baghingh Palace to the long, green anubilah palace where he would look out the window. It was thus that the crowds lined up to watch the king caught a glimpse of his face. A stained and anxious silence was displaced by cheers, George Y smiled with satisfaction. Within a few hours British newspapers were acclaiming that feeble gesture as more hopeful than the long bulletin issued during a long illness.
King George of England is still a very sick man. Any doubt that he was dispelled by the circumstances of his service to the sea coast, where there are sunshine and invigorating sea air, Penna-tara, or the sea, where they were most elaborate. The roads to be traversed were repaired and the docks lined against any conceivable shock. Special attendants were drilled. The entire program was rehearsed and
The sunshine and the salt air of the Saraxe coast are expected to speed up the growth of this long fight back to health, but he has undoubtedly been strengthened for the ordeals of convulsions by his ability to reflect and loyalty of his people.

But Standard Oil of Indiana was not as little as it looked. Though its capital was only $1,000,000, it had no real power, and in 1900, and in 1912, after the court proceedings were over, it hated that surplus, not to the government, but to the bankers. In 1905, it sold a 2,000 per cent stock dividend. That distribution was regarded at the time as a bit sardonee honour of which the elder Rockefeller, then in control, took advantage of.
