OUR LITERARY DECADENCE
Is literature declining on the HILL? Rhadamthian, poetry society, recently announced that no new members would be taken in as a result of the fall tryouts. The poor quality of the verso is the reason given for this radical move. It is particularly significant that this step should come after a similar statement by Quill Club, national upperclass literary society. Quill also bevailed the scarcity of suitable material in fall tryouts.
It is a sad state of affairs on the Hill if these two premier literary organizations can find no far or no sons capable of writing prose or verse of sufficient merit to meet their standards. This lack of material may be the fault of the societies them selves. The criticism might be made that their standards are too high. It is more probable that the organizations offer no inducements sufficient to cause the best of the Hill's writers to desire membership in them. The question is: are the societies getting "high-hat" or it literature declining on the Hill?
PAN-AMERICAN PEACE
While the Senate stewed over the hidden names in the Kellogg Peace Pact, a convention in Washington was drawing up a protocol more vital to the American people, more significant, and many times more forceful in character. The Pan-American Conference on Arbitration was deciding the future of disputes in the western hemisphere, setting up machinery for settlement of such disputes. It was drawing twenty nations of the American together under a compulsory arbitration clause. It was, in fact, establishing a body in the west which will, if given life by ratification, be the counterpart of the League of Nations in the eastern hemisphere. This conference saw an apparent revolution in the policy of the United States, which has practically dictated to Pan-American nations hereforefoe. Have the people of the country been properly informed about what was occurring at this important meeting? They have not. Little information has been vouchsafed, and that which has been was buried under an avalanche of dispatches concerning president-elect Hoover's trip and the consideration of the Paris Peace Pact.
The reason for the magnanimine action of the United States in accepting the compulsory arbitration clause of the protocol is open to conjecture. It is possible that the purpose in fostering this western league is to minimize the danger of having South American countries appeal their disputes to the League of Nations, as was done in the recent Paraguay-Bolivia clash. In this particular instance trouble was averted because the League saw fit to refer the dispute to the Pan-American conference, then in session at Washington, but in the future such an incident could easily provoke embarrassing. On the other hand, the protocol may have been accepted as a balm to South American antagonism, with the full expectation that the Senate would refuse to ratify it. It is certainly a question of enough moment that the
American people deserve full knowledge of it that they may decide whether or not they want the pact ratified.
MONEY
The complaint is often heard from citizens of small towns that their more promising young men and women go away to college never to return. They like to see the young people get ahead, but they would like also to see more of them return after graduating to help guide the destines of "the old home town."
The average student looks upon a college education as a means of increasing his earning power. The money she has been featured so long that he desires a degree as a weapon of self defense in the business world. Too many graduates are reluctant to start at small salaries and work up. They desire to get positions at once, or to secure jobs that have a very promising future. The average small town offers neither opportunity, so graduates look to the larger cities, although living expenses may be much higher there. They forget that it is what one saves that counts, rather than what one makes. They feel that to seek work at a smaller salary in the home town would reflect on their ability. It is time that character, manhood and happiness should be the aims of a college education rather than money.

There was once a student who told everything that the professor told him to do and another one who did nothing. Sure, they both funked.
The English society women who are having their toes and toe nails removed so that they may wear small smart-toed shoes are probably the type that could have nails driven into their heads without any physical discomfort.
It is said that the employer of one of the University social workers who has been making practical investigations in Chicago, discharged her when he found that she had a college degree. He must have read "College Humor" and decided she was unfit to associate with the ordinary p. w. j.
Today's Best Editorial
Scientists have largely cast a somewhat disturbing light into the caves and recesses of Darentia, Africa. One of the most famous is the East African Archeological Expedition, has discovered in Kenya Cola region the remains of a woman who may not have been Adam but is described as the earliest specimen yet found of that important species,
OUR AFRICAN FOREFATHER
The discoverer feels convinced that this individual lived and flourished in an age prior to that of any known human ancestor. While very early specimens of beings almost human appear to have populated Europe, the anthropologists who study them say they consist of clumy skull and squat figure as members of the human species, Mr. Leaky finds, on the other hand, that Africanus was "unmitakably" human.
The anti-evolutionists of Arkansas will not be greatly disturbed over the dilemma as to whether their European counterparts are more tolerant of European monkeys or from African men. Neither will the fundamentals of Tennessee have any reason to worry about the question.
Perhaps an obliging investigator will yet discover relics of an early prehistoric animal if so, that pride of land and of origin which overlaps hundreds of years of biological change in logical changes will pick up considerably. —Brooklyn Daily Eagle
Farmer and Chemist Are Expected to Co-operate Profitably in Future
By Dr. Kevin K. Sisson, K. U. 90, Director of Science Service will aim to produce carbohydrates, fatty acids, amino acids, and heterocycle ever yet been brought under the control of the chemist, consequently it will be adapted in the adaptation of its products and it loses heavily from waste.
I venture as my first forecast that the farmer of the future will stop to a large extent raising field crops as such. He will raise raw materials. He will aim to produce carbohydrates, fatty acids, amino-acids and heterocyclic compounds rather than raise sugar beets, cotton seed, beef and tobacco. He will invest in the research for the development of the lowest cost of the particular class of chemical compounds that are most in demand at the time. If, for instance, he is after alpha-cellulose for literature a lingerie, he may grow weeds. If he finds the market good for polymerised nethylmethyldiis, still sometimes called by the heatkenin name of couteau, he may take to raising milwweed, as Felton is now doing in Florida. These markets may be turned over to the synthetic chemist to be made into marketable forms.
The farmer of the future will not confine himself so largely as in the past to the production of foods. For there is a limit to this matter.
"Inside Stuff"
(Science Service)
---
By Dr. Edwin E. Slosson, K. U.'90, Director of Science Service
The perpetual groch intimated "tother day that the Kannan was "playing" wire news over local. So insider dragged out the news record released by The New York Times, 747 local stories taking 3,221 inches of space; 155 foreign stories for 941 inches. The latter evacuates the room and includes all else. Believe it or not.
Campus Opinion
diter Daily Kansan:
The announcement that the library will be open Sunday afternoons evidently is another attempt of the city to make itself more visible. It means always make good copy for the spring political advertisements, and perhaps they serve a real need on the campus.
However, if one considers the situation in its entirety, he comes to the conclusion that the ones who need help are those who never have time to do it. The real students, who need to relax a little on Sunday, will be in the library digging through books and going weep and plained until the library of friends consented to Sunday hours, have no intention of wearing them all overnight on the much needed day of "real."
Yours for more intelligence
and less ballyhoo,
A Senior
The library should be open to allow students to do the "duxury" reading which they do not have time for during school. The library should study, as each, should have no place in the library on Sunday. It might be much easier to do away with the study that we reserve that time to study. This would leave Sunday hours at the library for the extra reading which is often informed and truly satisfied persons.

Replying to your electronic letter of June 29, please note that your sample package I received the pamphlet describing how to enjoy reading because there was not an e-book available. The tasteful sales tails which make the recipient of a sample package feel more satisfied are yours.
I believe your practice of giving your prospect a sample and then you will gain from it. You will gain you many more customers by pushing the product down the prospect's throat. A matter of fact, I do not advertise a marketing气垫 I am applied to the advertising market because I have created a number of cuts from neighborhood dealers all of whom carry a gift card.

dought to eat any more than we do and we ought not to waste as much as we do. Even if the highway are so seething or commanding us to "Eat more wheat," "Eat more raisins," "Eat more apples," "Eat more potato" can follow all this gruntious advice. My grandfather used to say to me when I overloaded my plate with potatoes, it is bigger than your stomach. But that is only true of eating. Our stomach for automobiles, radios, silk stockings, hair dye, and nail polish. Startion with sawnest or waste molasses and ammonia made from the air, it is possible to make all manner of micro-organisms in the aid of micro-organisms. Already this field is being entered. Hitherto glucamic acid has been sold at about $100 a pound, or rather priced at that. The next new process it may be made for 35 cents a pound. All that is needed to make the process able to fit into the handheld device when it could not be sold by the gram. At any rate, it is obvious that here on the borderline of biology and chemistry, industries will eventually be developed.
Smoking Tobacco
I have never been one of these chem-
iales, like Bertolot, who forcee a time when all our food will be syn-
thetic to us. I have seen when we shall do away with our three meals and simply swallow a pill containing the essential elements and evi-
ence of life.
Pill Diet Not Expected
It seems to me, be a bird pill to swallow, for it would have to have a density purposely platiens, even an albatross, in which capacity of the 'datal compassion of Sigirus.
I believe that the bulk of one food will continue to be raised by the aid of vegetation and that while it may be possible to make my kind of food more sustainable, I doubt if it will be generally profitable to do so. So I anticipate that the farmer will want an electrician and the farmer will want an draw game, and result finally in some system of mutual co-operation, a set of symbols to the profit of both farmers.

I saw recently that you have helped people in those personnel love affairs. Now I let not put my hand on my feet because of my failures. I am a freshman on the bill, and I want to know if any body ever flunked on an act, of his failures. And now I can pass my quizzes.
Another thing I want to know is can a guy take indebted notes to class he you said in the paper that were plenty of evidence were plenty not, but I could see any practice values in them. Different people have told me "that I might just pass the book" better to class. Is that a fact?
