W. S. G. A. Calls Another Meeting of K. U. Women
No.131
Candidates for Election Must Be Re-nominated to Satisfy New Ruling
The rule made by the election committee, previous to the last election, to the effect that no candidate could be nominated until a meeting, but must present her withdrawal at the executive council meeting, has been declared illegal. It is not unusual for a committee to make such a rule. For this reason all nominations formerly nominated for the Tuesday evening, at which time nominations will be re-opened from the floor. Candidates are privileged to take the time of nomination if they so desire.
All fees of the former candidates have been paid, and their eligibility has been checked by the committee in charge. In case any one of these candidates is not nominated from the committee, the council will make the nomination.
The teas, for the purpose of introducing the candidates to the women of the party, are on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons March 4 and 15, from 2:30 to 5, in the Women's Institute building. The election will be held Monday, March 19, all day, as follows:

Freak March Weather,Robins' Daffodils,Hyacinth and Lovers Indicate That Spring Is Here
The weather is freakish for the early part of March. Usually it is characterized by gales which sweep Mount Oread from all directions, and alders that dot the cmpsus. This year there has been only 21 of an inch of moisture, while during the same period last year there was 158 inches. The temperature has varied from a maximum of 70 registered on March 10 and 11, to a minimum of 17 on the fifth. To weave for have had five cloudy ones, as is very much cloudy ones, which is a very record for this part of March.
Spring is really here again! Winter has lost his hold for good, it seems. The air is full of the sounds and scents of spring. One hears on every side the cheerful chirp and song of the robin, and sees the shoots of the daffodil, the marcissus, the hyacinth and the dandelions seening through the
Kansas Volcanic Ash Used in Dental Cream and Scouring Powder
State Produces 90 Per Cent of Country's Total
Lava Supply
Thousands of years ago, volcanoes to the westward of Kansas sent out a cubic mile or so of volcanic dust that settled over this region.
A study of the extent and nature of the deposits deposit of Kansas has just been completed by Prof. Kenneth K. Landes, of the department of geology and assistant professor.
Breezes of the Kansas plains gathered this dust into pockets and river valleys, and later spread coatings of soil over the volcanic ash heaps that had escaped the effect of water courses.
Men today scoop out the deposits, and from this natural abrasive make mechanics' soap and dental cream and powders to scrap pots and pans.
The material, he points out, is not a true ash, since it never has been burned, but is freely blown lava, like the ones that have been created that most of it will pass through a screen with a mesh of 100 openings to the inch, and some that will pass a 300-mesh screen. Pumice, pumiceite, or termite terms also applied to the ash.
The largest deposits of the material seem to center about the 100th meridian, with known pocketes of more than a million tonne in Menco, Norton, Iowa, and far east as De Moines, Iowa, where a vein a foot thick was disclosed. On the other hand, a deposit just over the Oklahoma line from Meudon County, Kan., has an exposed rock formation that drills show a death of 50 feet more.
The ach is being mined in a commercial way in Meadow and Norton Co., which found in commercial quantities in the following counties: Camellie, Ellsworth, Graham, Grant, Harper, Morgan, Sheridan, Seward, Shearden and Smith.
The deposits, depending as they probably did, on depressions in the earth's surface, vary from a few feet in area, up to quarter sections.
Commercially, the ash is used in mechanics' soap and in certain securing powders, one well advertised brand being 08 per cent Karan volcanic ash. The finest grouds are used as a mulch. A growing use for ash is in cement.
Production in 1920 exceeded 48,000 tons, and was valued at more than $152,000. The Kansas production exceeds 90% of the United States. It is 90% that of the United States.
The source of this material, Professor Landes believes, is the Capulin group of volcanic mountains in northwestern Mexico where were apparently active volcanoes in the post-Tertiary age, thousands of years ago, when, apparently, the ash was deposited. They lie to the southwest of Lake Pueblo, and the areas are that prevailing winds, even during the presence of prehistoric ice sheets that extended from the northwest to the southeast, thereby were toward the eastward. This would account for the distribution of the ash over this region, and for the influence of the winds.
Deposits carefully examined show markings such as are found in snow drifts, indicating the ash was formed by the winds, rather than by sedimentation. The deposits have been found in which the ash appears to have been deposited by water.
In addition to the indications given by the flowers and birds that the students are most interested at least the students are substantiating the theory that was advanced by a great poet over a companion's hand. Mr. Man's Fancy Lightly Turns to Thoughts of Love," Kodaks, Rent-a-Forts, portals, and knickers have been the stuff of our conversations. Steak fries are numerous, and couples may be seen strolling through the pines back of the chemistry building in this country's countrie. One notice an abundance not to say a superfluity, of amorous glances passing between the member and the host.
Spring will ever be a source of wonder and inspiration to people in matter how sophisticated they may become. It is human nature to be impressed with the coming of life and after a period when all seems dead.
"The Octopus" to Be Here March 16 or 17

Mellon Should Be Made to Resign Says Norris, Talking Before Senate
by Secretary
Sinclair's Party Contribution Should Have Been Aired In Front
Washington, March 12—President Coolidge should require Secretary of the Treasury Mills to resign for remaining silent more than four years about Harry Sichura's bond contribution. Senator Norris declared today.
Norris indicated a movement might be started in the Senate to induce Melton to quit his post. "For nearly five years the Tea Pot Dome scandal has spilled into newspapers," Norris said. "Even if Mellon knew nothing of the Tea Pot dome matter at the time when Will Hays sent him $50,000 of Sinclair's Continental Trading Company's Library materials, he remained silent since that time."
United Parcel
Mellon had admitted that Hayes on behalf of the Republican national committee, gave $10,000 bonds to convert into cash, but said he had returned the bonds later, making a $50,000 cash contribution to aid in clearing the Republc
"It was Mellon's public duty to speak out," Norris continued. "He must have known that the naval reserve had been leased to Harry Sinclair and that criminal conspiracy had been instigated against the oil man.
"I cannot see how he could, in duty bound, remain silent while all these developments were occurring.
Norris also said he believed Mr. Caucasus had been as soon as he learned Mellon knew of the Sinclair contribution.

Shultz Continues as "Y"Secretary at the University
Reports He Is Unavailable for Rocky Mountain Staff Position
Action Taken Last Night
Advisory Board Votes Changes in the General Procedure for Future
"Ted" Shultz will stny.
Shultz Makes Statement
This was his decision announced this morning following a two-week sounding of the campus opinion by the adviser to the prosecution, the Y. M. C. A., under Shulitz's guidance, according to which he was offered a position with the regional Y. M. C. A. council which would take him from the campus. Shulitz returned last night from a meeting of the council at Topela where he announced his decision to stay University in his present capacity.
Shultz Makes Statement
Regarding his decision and his work
on the campus, Shultz made the following statement this morning:
"I have promised to return to the University as general secretary next year. The support for the type of education that I have provided during the last five years revealed by the board's earned effort to evaluate it, has been very gratifying to the team," she said. "This does not mean that we are at all satisfied with what has been achieved, but that we do feel that the program trends in the right direction. We can now provide us with possibilities that need to be tried and present features that need to be expanded. The board in asking me to remain also voted in favor of euthanasia, as well as those who support our beliefs will make for greater efficiency in our service to the campus, as well as a broader perspective in the budget."
Work Will Be Prepared
"I realize that there are many on the campus not in sympathy with the favorable opinion which recently has been expressed to us, but those too will feel welcome into the work of the association and this work can be broad enough to offer them tasks congenial to their tastes. We may any way hamper a continued development of the present program.
"The national staff position in the Rocky Mountain field, which I was asked to consider, at present seems a serious committee at Toposa Saturday and Sunday, this matter was discussed. After assurance that we had been advised of the advisory board, that the board was unanimous in its desire to have no remainder on the position for any other position as I had promised to return to K. U."
