A. J. BOYNTON
The death of A. J. Boyton stands as one of the sadest and most serious losses the University has suffered in its history.
Professor Boynton in his many years as head of the department of economies gained the reputation of being our most outstanding personality. He probably had more students in his classes than any other instructor on the Hill. Very few are there in school who did not know Professor Boynton or know of him, for his force of character was such that he stood with our greatest.
It was in his interest and participation in affairs outside the classroom that he found a following over the entire United States. As an adviser in banking and financial problems his judgment was universally considered sound.
The extensive and valuable outside connections he has developed for the benefit of the University stand among his achievements to be valued by the school.
The loss of Professor Bountyon is irreparable. He was a great motivating power; there will never be another to replace him.
THE BEGINNING OF THE END
Well, it's all over. Miss Miller had denoted her gold toe rings, refinished her new goldness Lakshmi, skimmed the bark from a sacred peel tree and gone home to get acquainted with the other wives of her husband.
And then, maybe, just for fun, her husband will find the need for another wife. Then, maybe, she will begin to wish for an American husband.
We just wonder how long it will be before the glamer begins to wear off—until she begins to live of being anywhere from first to fourth choice among the wives.
LOCKED DOORS
Yesterday, people repeatedly tried the doors of the Union building but found them locked. Dyche museum is open to the inspection of the public Likewise, Spooner-Thayer welcomes the visitor.
But the new Memorial building is locked when these, our visitors, would like to see what has been done in memory of the former University students who gave their lives in the last war. Every Sunday it is the same. Since the partial completion of the building the people who visit the campus have tried to interest themselves in the work that has been so ably promoted by the Memorial Corporation. It is useless; the doors remain closed.
With such inhospitable reception there can be little wonder that the completion of the building remains uninteresting to the public. How can anyone become interested in something of which he knows so little?
It would be much better to receive our visitors with a hearty welcome. Surely active co-operation of the people of the state is worth more than an apathetic disinterestedness that inevitably results from locked doors.
Editor's note. Due to mechanica error, Korra Stace was not given a print matter in the editorial yesterdays newspaper and Youth." We are sorry.
"That the Theater Might Live" would be an appropriate slogan for a campaign on the Hill to increase student interest in the drama.
DRAMATICS
At present there is only one small stage, the Little Theater in Green hall, that is even in usable condition, and to say that it is inadequate is only a mild statement of the truth. Two classes in a certain course in dramatics are attempting several rehearvals a day for their regular class work. At the same time rehearvals for two large plays are under way. The departments of French, of German, and of Spanish are also using it for rehearvals for departmental plays. If the students do not get sufficient time to rehearse the plays which are an essential part of their work in their course in dramatics they receive low grades, for the play must go on in spite of the handicap arising from lack of rehearvals. The language departments have the same needs as the dramatic department; and with all of this work going on, the students are asking for more dramatic presentations.
It has been said that an increase in dramatic facilities is unnecessary because of the comparatively few concerned. The error of such a statement will be seen on consideration of the varied demand for increased dramatic activities.
Increased facilities for presentations, including rehearsal halls and equipment, have been promised.
Money is now on hand for the completion of a theater in Fraser chapel.
Completion of this work was promised in the latter part of February. Now it looks as if it would be some time next February. With the money on hand, nearly neglect of this work is inexcusable; for it is occasioning much unnecessary work on the part of the people concerned as well as lowering the quality of work, done, and, as a result, lowering the grades of pupils whose grades are dependent on the work done in the theater.
Flowered suffita is the thing for the very young girl, according to fashion experts. Which means that grandmother will buy yards and yards of it.
KANSAS WINDS
Some time ago a Missouri editor, in a jokering manner referred to Kansas as "Kansas the State of the Hurricane." Now the publishers of the Texas Almanac have labeled a Texas windstorm as "A Kansas Tornado."
Whether meant in a joking or serious manner this is not good advertising for any state, and Governor Paunen was doing no more than his duty when he declared a storm war upon Texas and throw a bomb of statutes into the almanac editor's office showing that tornadoes visit Texas more frequently than they do Kansas and that they are more destructive.
Figures show that last year, Missouri, with a loss of $30,655,000 suffered the highest torpedo toll in five central and southwestern states. Texas ranked third with a loss of $4,052,000, and Kansas was last with a $1,739,000 loss.
The statistics further reveal that for an eight year period ending in 1923, Texas led these same five states in tornado loss with a total of $831,192,000. For this period Kansas was third with a $5,289,000 loss.
No state is able to control its tornado record and no state is proud of such a record and the state that today is at the foot of the column, may head the list tomorrow. So why should states pick quarrels with each other concerning matters over which they have no control?
When the almanac editor received this information, he played the part of a true sportman by admitting that he was wrong. He stated further that tornaud records were something that a state could not be proud of and that Texas was not pointing a finger of scorn at Kansas when the editor of the almanac labeled the picture "A Kansas Tornado," but that in the future they would not risk misunderstanding.
All classes in the department of economics have been dismissed for Monday and Tuesday, March 19 and 20, and all other classes of the University have been dismissed for the afternoon of Tuesday, March 20, in respect to the late Professor A.

In answer to the question "What did Christ mean when he said 'I am the Way'?" the rabbi could have used this phrase in a more general sense of the same assertion, that therefore
Critical Comments on Rahhi
Browne's Address
The rabbi does have an entertaining manner, he does have some very same, tolerant and broad views of reason. The rabbi also has a broad mind. My broadness expent into shallowness? Personally the writer thinks that the rabbi talked too quickly to think, and much evidence of halftruth and indiscriminating chatter
Are "orthodox" Christians being failed into thinking their religion is unique; that it alone bears the Divine stamp of approval?
Is Christianity only one of many
unite country valuable religions?
These questions are raised in reflecting on the address and the forum discussions following Tuesday's conversation address by the visiting rabbi
JAROLD R. WINSOR, President, School of Business
The open forum plenus as conducted by the Y. M. C. A. allows men superspecified qualification to hold opinions of women in a conflict, to expose them to the fire of searching, frank and fearless logic. The logic is validated in the light of experience as to its promises and conclusions—in theory at least. In the case in hand we have a woman who is a speaker. The discussion of any religious matter finds most people too much overtaken by sudden new thrust or by their own lack of thorough training in such matters to meet the speaker who may not be somewhat superior in the field. The micropresents the facts. And so it was in the forum meeting. We will not assert that the audience was uncritical; it takes time to think; or it may wish to let a speaker enjoy his knowledge of ranges himself in his自-made nose.
Was he misquoted? By more than one apostle? Was he mistaken? Was he a fraud? These are not new questions. Can they be answered? Are we so feeble that we must relapse to obscurantism, the enemy of knowledge, or to agroenthesis and skepticism. There may be some who enjoy his sensation of suspended judgment. Do we have any practical things were, for practical purposes settled. Can this be done for Christianity?
If the rabbi is sound in his judgment supposedly based on much reading and critical analysis, shall we cease missionary effort; should Paul warn Romans not to use theRomans to upper Europe, no Augustine or Luther to us?
Christ is to be classed in the same category. But that is not all that Christ said. He claimed to be the very son of God, to have teachings which should modify that of the ancient jew, and a teaching which would spread to all people everywhere. He left no doubt as to his teachings.
What are we—a deluded people worshipping an imaginary God, a mistaken or false savior, a man-made idol? Is there no way to decide? How much more anxious we are to believe that the principles of complete living.
Follow the consequences:
The speaker tries to have us as consider alleged fact that other great leaders claimed their supremacy; others had miraculous birth attributed
to them; Christianity has nothing unique unless it be its emphasis.
unique unless it be its emphases.
What shall we do with the prophecy of Christ? What shall we do with Christ's teachings and behavior centred on this supposed fallacy or hyporisy? What shall we do with Christ's own acceptance of the propheclesia, \<u>i.e.</u> own desire to get back at God; own resurrection—a very unique affair indeed for such a falteration. What shall we do with the confirmation of profane history? What with the astounding achievements of the world's recognized Christian leaders in the influence of Christian influence or progress. Oh yes, Christian missionaries are not all wise; yes, some may be mercenary; yes Christ may not have been virgin-born. (He never said so). Do those outweigh or invalidate a great person's personal experience?
After all, what can you decide by argument? Does science get its fact by sheer logic? Was that not the notable failure of the middle ages? The point is that in matters of written and spoken language, when that is the only available data as this article will carry no conviction. In matters of behavior, philosophy, and the like, logic is a good starting point, or a good crutch, but only long continued experience multiplied by numbers of lives can decide a drawn argument. Then why be so dogmatic, particularly in proclaiming the mistakes of the Christian religion when the methods used to prove this are largely subject to logical error, prejudice, and self-interest? Again, why say Christ might have been misquoted in a totalling of historical evidence and present experience places a tremendous burden of proof on the sketech? Under what other religion have we been taught in school to live—mental, spiritual and physical? What other religion has set up as many schools and hospitals? Under what other religion has science deceived

A little old man wearing a skull cap was seated in a rocking chair smoking a cigar of a bipod, but when I taught him how to tie his shirt, I changed my mind. The aroma of a candle was strong and made up my mind right then and there that I wanted some of the same brand.
I began with: "I beg your pardon, sir, but I came in to a buy can of toast, and I would like the same treat telling me." He looked at me for a moment, grasped his pipe with one hand, and wished to look up. "Would you like someone?"
Of course I did, and I secured a supply from the old fellow. The joke, of course, was on me, but I went on my wavie rejoicing.
Yours very truly,

veipened and thrived as under the one now so popularly disputed? Oh, yes, Christians have blundered terribly, even in the past. They thought, they have persecuted, and much else. But are we talking of Christianity in its purity or in its often humanly distorted phases?
Put this question to yourself, Mr. Rabbi, after what you said is said, small we talk you seriously. Have you ever thought that you were then and there decided to live a more productive, substantial, altruistic life? Or did your talk merely furnish us with a little entertainment, a little speculative amusement, a little preachy preaching for the other man's view. If only the
latter you laid us a favor. But but sidering your literary advantages would it not be better to be more constructive and not sell out for more popularity's sake? Do you actually say you have lived this long as a cultured person and still are in doubt as to the uniqueness of Christianity? Or do you just believe that everyone trial—are you an experimenter!? I am still unconvinced.
I am still unconfirmed.
That's what you thought.
