Entered as second-case mail matter September 17, 1904, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1872 MONDAY, JANUARY 16, 1928 Ruth Brown Snyder has paid the supreme penalty for her part in the murder of her husband, but out of this terrible example the world has been given one fact: Religion was the one comfort of her last days and hours. RELIGION HAS THE LAST CHANCE Did such a fact ever cause you to wonder? Has it ever seemed strange to you that one who commits a murder so often turns to the Redeemer in his last moments of life? Frail human beings seem inclined to reach for religion when in need. In hours of sorrow the Book of Life comforts. The churches are the gathering places in time of crisis. In them we find peace and solitude which can not be found elsewhere. The most brutal crimes are committed; yet when the time comes for the doe of such an act to pay with his life, to the Father he lifts his heart and asks for forgiveness. The faith of the ages and the belief in the hereafter are then the only consolation he can have. Such facts are evident proof that religion is not dead—that it never will be. As long as a Supreme Being is remembered, even though at the last moment, as long as we remember that there is a faith that has stood through the ages, so long will religion be a basic element in our human lives. The pity is that our recognition must wait until the hour of need. Perhaps there are others who will agree with Judge day that Mr. Mumm of Kansas City is a champion husband in spite of the fact that he was denounced by the court. Mrs. Mumm had been told by Mr. Mumm that there was a state law making all married women get to work or go to jail. The playhouse was upset when after one year of labor she came to inquire whether the law was still in effect. The humor with which newspaper writers have handled accounts of recent executions and the ridicule they have heaped upon the cringing victims is more than we can understand. We must confess that death has always been a rather serious matter with us. Perhaps we are just too young to understand. The resignation of Dr. William P. Edmunds, director of athletics at Washington University has brought to light a situation which exists, not only at that school, but which is boiling under the lid in many other such institutions as well. PUTTING UNIVERSITIES ON THE MAP The situation is parallel to that weeks ago when a group of august alumni hoped to "put Kansas on the map in the football world." Instead, the put her on the public sheet. The Civic Athletic Association of Washington University has been doing the same thing that a lot of other university alumni groups have been doing. They have been bringing athletes from all parts of the country and promising them plenty of easy jobs. The result is that the students have not taken their jobs very seriously and that the association now owes the university about $4,000. Such questionable methods - have caused the director to resign. When the methods of obtaining athletes becomes so corrupt in a university as to cause the director of athletics to leave his post in order to keep his self-respect, then it is high time for a change in either the method of recruiting athletes or in the game itself. The kind of assistance now being rendered to universities and colleges by the alumni groups, is not proving very satisfactory. The trouble is that in too many cases the men connected with them don't care how men are brought to the school so long as they can use them to win athletic contests and build on their own reputations. It is refracting to note that at last one man from the inner-circle has made an effective protest against each method for "putting the university on the map." We have always been more or less at a loss to how to define "spand" properly. A freshman engineer solved the problem for us the other morning when he spoke of them as "the fanye leggings which run up inside of a follow's pants leg." TELEPATHY Whils American inventors have been working on radios, wireless telegraphy and other such inventions, a French engineer is exchanging experiments to what has long been called a mythical farm—telegraphy. Rene Warecoller, a chemical engineer of standing, has been working with Dr. Gardner Marphy, psychologist of Columbia University, and three of the best informed students of teenage in the country. He has gathered together 25 persons, who he believes, can send thoughts over long distances. The experiments concern certain pictured ideas such as that of a loving cap with handles shaped like anthems which were visualized in Paris and simultaneously seen by certain persons in America. Wearllier, while being successful in some of these experiments, failed in others. While French and German engineers seem pretty well assured of the future success of telephony, Americans are still skeptical. Only the future success of some of the experiments will help to clear up the old mind complexes everyone has experienced—the feeling that someone is staring at us, pericular bunches, and a faint recollection of having been in a particular situation at some previous time. The Great Bend Tribune tells of a man who a bed for a bottle of indica, "Sorry," said the clerk, "but this is a drug store. Can't I interest you in an alarm clock, some nice leather goods, a few radio parts, or a torned cheese sandwich?" Bill to Cut Postal Rates - Headline: No, this isn't another of Big Bill Thompson's reforms. The postoffice seems to have thought of the idea without any suggestion from him. Simers make the best saints," a character in "Seven Heaven" commented the other evening. Which is merely another way of saying that to know the good is to have known the bad. Ebb Coldwater says in the Minneapolis Messenger that he can't see how leap year can furnish any new privileges for the girls of this generation. If the present rate of price cutting in the automobile industry continues, the Ford and the Chevrolet will be the most expensive cars on the market a year from now. Moral: He that bitch not today, is the guy who remembereth the hook he awould yesterday. —Kinsley Mercury Editorial of the Day --- A Privilege of a Free Country Bootleg liquor, says a statement from New York, is proving more deadly than the product dispensed in France.

The popular theory that students take only enough interest in their subjects to be able to out to be a fallacy. There is enthusement for intellectual things as well as for nontraditional interests. It wouldn't surprise us to learn that there are political science and history clubs where discussion is important; perhaps than in the lecture room. W. S. JOHNSON, Chairman Department of English. abones. The Volunteer net was not designed to compel any free American citizen to move to the country. Here's one instance in private memory can count the limit. The only reason there are bootleaders in any locality is that the officers of the law either share in the profits of the business or because they believe it to be good politics to pander to the lawbreakers. -Holton Recever. The which is profoundly true. Perhaps even more important than classroom or study club is the digesting institution in which takes place among students at any first rate college in their rooms and at meals. Here is distilled the giant essence of sense from the human variation of sensations-Emperor Gazette.

A brief news story in a college paper told of the meeting of the Mathematics club, at which talks were given on such subjects as "Mathematical Inaccuracies in Littering" and "How to Make a Sun 'Dial'" on the club members, "small" students and teachers, had a good time. If the outsider investigated he would find out that there are similar clubs for other departments of study. There are French, German, Spanish, and many all their conversing in the foreign language in which they are especially interested. There are classical clubs that give old Greek or Latin plays which are credited with being a part of such well as interesting and instructive. On Other Hills 1. ..1...1... Otto Y. Schering, president of the Baby Ruth Candy Company and an alumnus of the University of Chicago, earned a $20,000 worth of $72,000. The annual average income of a high school graduate is $2,200, and that of a college graduate is $6,000. Total earnings of the two graduates approximately placed at $78,000 and $150,000. This gives the college graduate a lead of $72,000 over the college graduate with specialization and scientific management in business, in which a college education is becoming almost an absolute necessity, "and Mr. Scherling Cigarette lighters, like automobiles, now have service stations.
