MONDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1928 THE CURIOSITY OF MEN Woman has always been accused of being a curious creature; her curiosity the bit of many an epigram and moral. If she is curious about her husband's pocketbook, her neighbor's car, her dog's bone, the general analogy is "just like a woman." But when four men decale the sacred hounds of secrecy which surrounds the yearly event of the Puff Pant Prom, and disguise themselves in girls' hats, and hide behind a woman's petticoat, the height and depth of curiosity is reached. The Puff Paint Prom is for women, and for women only. Men may have their secret organizations, their pool halls, and their ball feist, and no woman is allowed. Yet when women innocently try to have a little fun by themselves, even though it is by domning masculine attire, men must poke their moses in and see what it is all about. As the saying goes, "Curiously killed a cat" but as these did not happen to be cats, their punishment was a ducking in the swimming pool. Perhaps the ducking was worth the game. At any rate men should think, and think again before doing such a thing. They may not get off so easy next time. It has been found necessary to maintain separate schools for American children in the Philippines in order to keep them uncontaminated by the "bamboo English" spoken by many natives. One wonder how long it will be before schools will be established in America in an attempt to keep American children uncontaminated from the tasteless English new rampant on the Occidental half of the globe. OHIO THE UNCERTAIN One of the most important developments in the G. O. P. fight for the presidential nomination in weeks is the decision of Herbert Howe to enter the Ohio Primary. If Hoover wins the 51 votes of the Ohio delegation then he will have gone a long, long way toward winning the Republican nomination. Ohio plays a significant part in the nominating of candidates for either party. Since 1869 only one president, Grover Cleveland, has been chosen without the 24 electoral votes of Ohio. In that time, too, seven of the 12 men who have lived in the White House were born in Ohio and six lived there when nominated. There are numerous reasons why such a position is held by Ohio. It is in this state more than anywhere else that the political currents of the country meet and mingle. It is the gateway to a certain extent through which people go from the North to the South. There is more genuine independent voting in Ohio than in any other state in the union. There are several hundred thousand voters in the state who have no party affiliations. Naturally, then, the state being neither Democratic nor Republican with any degree of certainty, politicians in both parties play the game there with great intensity. It is not hard to see that Hoover picked a strategic state in which to start his campaign. Whatever the result of the primary may be, it will have a big effect on the Kansas City convention next June. If the convention is deadlocked, and it books highly probable that it will be, then the plea that "the can carry Ohio," means *n* lot to any ancillary LET'S GET ACQUAINTED In commemoration of the 129 men who gave their lives in the World war, men of the University, a building has been ceased by subscription for the use of the student body at a cost of near $250,000. This building, made comfortable with lace and smoking rooms for the students during their leisure time, and made convented by the instantiation of the university cafeteria, was made so because it was thought to be the most beneficial sort of memorable possible. The erection of such a building, a place where students could meet and be comfortable and where returning alumni could gather for the tabling over of old times, was backed forward to for many years. The project, however, has been given a much poorer reception than it deserves. It now stands as a memorial and a memorial only. The student body, whether through lack of knowledge or through lack of interest, has neglected the opportunities it affords. It would be well for the many who are still unquainted to look around a bit and discover the benefits that can be derived there. A prince day or a vacant hour would be well spent in the club-like atmosphere which the student body could well build up. Such buildings have proved a tremendous success in other colleges and can very well do so here. A Couple Married 72 Years—Headline in Line in Chicago City Star.

Plain Tales From the Hill Plain Tales From the Hill ? There were two boys outside our outdoor readings they and did. After their exchange, one began to comment on his work: "Wohl, this book I wrote for a girl in my country are a very resourceful and intelligent people. They even tan their own hides. And in the margin comments we have dear. How it must have hurt." *P* Professor After, in astronomy "Next Tuesday Miss Poland will start work on the moona." Our Contemporaries The Hickman (vinil has sold more newspapers than Lindbergh's flights) according to Walter Sterner, assistant managing editor of the Bold Age. Human Nature The public demands crime news, seems. People criticize the news of crime and want to see it done. They have only themselves to co- demn. If they couldn't read of the crime of the nation in their new paper, they would feel that some people are not so lucky to be in and begin to look for one that dittl of the country's latest murder. Individuals like the unanticipated; the own lives are generally as uneventful as the deaths in it the newspapers. And they do.

Gives an Answer Senator Curtis yesterday made answer to the questions put to him by Senator Born regarding prohibition. Y, W, C, A, t Curtis Gives an Answer "In my opinion it is the greatest moral issue of all ages, and public sentiment demands that both of the Senator Borah wanted to 'know whether Senator Curtis, who is an amateur historian and a prominent senator for the president, favored a plank in the platform declaring for the enforcement of the prohibition law. He also wanted to know how he might be able to connect in connection with prohibition. Borah got an answer from Curtis. The Kasraan said that he favored a plank that would be claring for the Eighteenth amendment and a plank pledging the monies of the convention "to a fair, vigorous and faithful enforcement" of the amendment. And further, he said, of prohibition: The repeat Quack Club meeting has been changed to Tuesdays, Feb. 1 at 4:30. This is an important invitation to discuss plans for the Water Center.

QUACK CLUB: Kansas doesn't have as many millionaires as some states; neither, thank heaven, does it have as many folk who are desperately poor. Preeminent men more earn money than women per capita with high. It is good live in a state where equality is something more than an oratorical catch word—Arkansas City Traveler.

What the Kansas Editors Say How interesting, then, to turn to a tabulation of per capita wealth in the 38 status, just by the national industry. Kansas is cleventh from the top of the list. How interesting to note that Oklahoma, with its rich oil fields, stands forty-third; that Missouri, with its coal deposits, stands a "poor relation," is twenty-eight; that urbane New York, which still smokes at a main from Kansas, is fourteenth that only one state east of it connects, Connecticut, stands above Kansas. --political parties declare themselves unreconveniably for it. Should I be nominated and elected president, I favor meeting the issue squarely and publicly, as well as to fortify the forcement of the lives to carry out the constitutional amendment." KANSAS IS ELEVENTH Not so long ago it was "poor, God-forsaken Kansas." -Pittsburg Sun. At the Concert by Peggy Huffman The soft strains of the organ music in the first number of the Veepor Trio were so powerful that the greeted the fairly large audience in the new Auditorium Sunday afternoon. This number, played by C.S. Wheeler, was enjoyed with delightful expressiveness. An especially difficult and unusual piece was the violin and viola duet, "Passengliel," played by Dorothy Kuesteiner and Karl Kuesteiner. Why leave the Hill?

A comprehensive showing of new spring suits at $50 The light runs and deeply resonant chords made this number one of the most enjoyable of the whole afternoon. Stubert's "Death of the Maldon" sung by Fave Crowell, accompanied by the University String Quartet, carried out the lion of the坠, mourn the death of the Lilith. The accompaniment gave effectively a moral feeling of depression. --- On of the best numbers of the Lol afternoon was the "Concerto" in Daur Violin. It was played by Wildcard Geltch, Kari Kuerstein, Concord McGrew, Luther Levengow, and accompanied by D. M. Swartthor at the piano. There was unusual blur- ness of number, and the full intelligent powers of four men were fully displayed. The last number, "Allegro from Op. 59, No. 1," by Beethoven played by the University String Quartet was generally enjoyed, though considered a work of low quality. The University should feel complimented to have such a quartet.
