THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
School of Religion Becomes Member of National Board
Possibility of Combination With Wichita School Is Recognized by Braden
The Bible Chair of the University has recently been voted into membership of the national board of education of the Christian church, "This work is a necessary component of this work," said Dean S. Braden, of the School of Religion.
The present plans call for a campaign for funds which will begin in September. This should make possible the further development of the School of Religion program sometime during the following year. If Friends University of Weihita should decide to participate, there is a possibility of combining its bible department with the one at the University, according to Dean Braden.
The project for the promotion of the development of the School of Religion was approved by the district council of the churches which closed last week.
At the recent Religious Education Association convention it was announced that at least a dozen schools and organizations of organization at state universities.

Prized Possessions Reveal Much
Books, Stamps, Coins, and Flowers From Flanders Hold First Place in Hearts of Faculty Members
to light by delving for data relating to their most prizes possessions. The only necessary foreword to the revelation of this material, as well as the overall effect, is the effect that wives and children are entirely excluded from consideration. Some difficulty was encountered in securing this information.
Several professors were very reticent about disclosing the nature of their most prized possession. In fact, Prof. D. L. Patterson, remembered by those who have enjoyed his dramatic history lectures, and Prof. F. H. Guild, famed for his card tricks, both flattery and charming, will always be happy without. Perhaps this is true. If so, they are more to be pitted than scorned.
Dean Schweiger, known for his ideality and big words, remained true to his cause through out the ordeal, by stating that the only thing he had now that he couldn't comfortly live without, was human contacts (he meant friends), and when told that only material possessions were to be considered, he named them library as the thing most precious to him.
Unique collections, and individual books, valued more for associations than content, have a prominent place among the various disclosures.
There is Professor Chubb, who has a stamp collection of about four thousand stamps. He has kept it up through the years since he was a boy, although most of his stamps were secured during his three years at the Library of Congress.
Prof. L. N. Flint, who has always been considered as one of these matter-of-fact journalists, suddenly proves to have been a romantic nature-lover all the time. For years he had spent his life searching for eggs secured when he was a boy. He has 40 different kinds, all of which he discovered for himself. At least he called them all bird eggs. There is one long, slim, white egg in this case. This was not his first discovery. However, he did finally admit that he realized now that a turtle is really not a bird.
A most delightful history of his trip through France with the army, is prized by Prof. Alen Crafton, for he collected it himself, and his wife assembled it. Instead of sending home a piece of shell, or the helmet of some Roche whom he had killed, Professor Crafton told me how when the army stopped, and malted it in an envelope to Mrs. Crafton.
Mrs. Crafton has saved all these flowers, made them into a design, and framed it against black velvet. Every flower is different, and Professor Crafton can remember where each is from. They range all the way from the heather secured in Brittany, to a panay which he picked when they reached the front.
Passing again from these various collections to the subject of books, there is Prof. F. W. Blackman, whose most valuable possession is a book of Aesop's Fables, bound in blue and
gold, which he received in the grades for his excellency in spelling.
Then there is Prof. R. F. O'Leary, who owns an old American Fifth Reader which was published back in the 70's and is not worth 25 cents now, but which he values both for its associations, and for an index of the literary men whose works are printed in the book.
Prof. A. J. Mix is true to his cause in valuing an old book by Linneus on the classification of plants, which was published in 1743. It was written in Latin, and is entitled, "Genera Plantarum." A friend picked it up in Europe and sent it to him.
Prof. Robert Calderwood also named a book sent him by a friend who found it in a second hand shop in London. He prizes it before being given away as an autograph to the illustrious. A picture of Edwin Booth and an autographed letter of Joseph Jefferson share a place with Le Gallienne's book in Professor Bresser's library.
In telling of his most prized possession, Prof. W, Davis forced himself to give away the secret to his successful fish. Although it may only be a fish story, it is a pretty good one. His secret is concerned with a trained Dogalosin.
Most people don't catch fish because they most know where the fish are. Professor Davis, with the aid of his Doogalosia, never wastes any time, at least in fishing. When Professor Davis is ready to fish, he throws in a net and then puts the Doogalosia on the rod. He runs down the rod and line into the water. Professor Davis then watches for him to come up.
If there are no fish there, the Dogloogis runs back up the line and rod and jumps into Professor Davis's pocket. However, if there are no fish there, the Dogloogis stays on the line and looks down into the water. Then every time Professor Davis has a bite, the Dogloogis waves one of his fins.
A Dooglasoia, according to Professor Davis, is a bug with a body about three-fourths of an inch long, six legs, and two wings. There are several other persons in the United States who have successfully caught and trained one, he added.
In naming his most prized possession, Dean Arant was torn between a silver dollar, and a $50 leather traveling bag given him by his students when he left the Yale School of Law. The dollar is part of the first lawyer's fee he earned, which was $2.50 paid in cash.
He sent the fifty-cent piece to his father, gave the other dollar to his partner, and kept one himself. The fact that he has kept this dollar so long is proof itself of the sentimental value it gives to him for he admits that there have been several times when it could have been spent to advantage.
And so far into the night this list could be continued. Whether these possessions have any psychological significance cannot be determined by a more reporter. However, some scientifically inclined might uncover some startling facts based on the above data concerning the loved ones, who have always been considered entirely harmless.
More Fun Here Than in France for the Members of "40 and 8"
To many persons 40 and 8 only means an organization of legionaries, but to the man who rode in one of the small box cars in France, it has a different meaning.
Possibly every man who saw service in France during the World war can relate stories about 40 and 8. The number 40 which appeared over the figure 8, meant that the capacity of the car was 40 men and the 8, the number of horses that could be accommodated for those who know, that the 8 horses were more capable than the 40 men, when in the car.
The 40 and 8s as we know them, is an organization which is an auxiliary of the American Legion and is composed of men who are elected from the Legion. They are first, men who are active in the Legion's work, and the election to the 40 and 8s is considered an honor.
The purpose of the organization is fun making and members are supposed to have a good time. Primarily it is designed for those who want to work at Legion and are interested in its interests.
The name 40 and 8 is a reminder of the days spent in France and the officers in the organization are given French titles. For instance the head of the 40 and 8$, who now happens to be Dinsmore Alter, of the depart- ment, is known as Chef de Gare, mean- railroad master. The second officer is called Chef de Train, meaning train master or conductor.
The 40 and 8's were organized in Lawrence shortly after the American Legion, which was about six years ago. There are more than three hundred members of the American Legion in Douglas county, of which 30 are members of the 40 and 8'.
The following members of 40 and 8's are connected with the University: Dean P. F. Walker, of the School of Engineering; Prof. Dinnore Alter, in the department of astronomy; Associate Prof. Earnest Boyce, in the School of Engineering; Prof. T. A. Larremore in the Law School; Instructor John F. Griffin, in the Department of Spanish; Dean John R. Dyer, assistant to the commission; Dr. R. H. Edmiston, of the student hospital, and Chester K. Shore.
The 40 and 8's also support a junior two-light league baseball team during the summer. They furnish the uniforms, equipment and a coach for the team.
G. Washington Loses His Wig
Can you imagine George Washington without his big white wig? Whether you can or not, there was a time when he did not wear any wig and there is a picture of the first president in his natural hair in Charleston, S. C.
The picture was painted by Col. John Trumbull and now belongs to the city of Charleston. It is called the "only true picture" and was painted before Washington had either a wig or false teeth, when he was only 69 years old and still in vigorous health.
But who wants to see George deprived of his wig? He has been deprived of so many other "traditions" by enterprising historians that it would be a shame to take advantage of him now in such a personal thing as personal appearance.
