And, in case son Bobly quite measure up to these qualifications, we further suggest that the mother might turn to the average metropolitan newspaper, which measures up to the standards very well. OLD-TIME POLITICS "How to get out the vote?" the question which is creating so much alarm among citizens of the United States, seems to have an answer in a comparison of the city elections in Chicago and in Lawrence recently. In Chicago nearly a million out of about 1,150,000 eligible voters went to the polls. In Lawrence only about 3,200 out of about seven thousand eligible voters cast a ballot. Chicago's election showed more of the good old-fashioned politics than has been seen in this country in many a day. Lawrence's election left hardly a ripple on the surface, so far as a University student, one who was not eligible to vote; could see. The old-time, whoo-it-up, hammers-and-slogans, fights and frictionless skulldruggery practiced in Chicago seems to have brought out a record number of voters. Just what these voters accomplished when they did come out is another question; but if getting out the vote is the thing, Chicago apparently has the right idea. [ ] CAST YOUR BALLOT The important expressions on senior's faces these days is just a method of concealment of that unsettled void which is their future. As usual at election time there seems to be a lethargy among the greater numbers of students. There is distinct life and energy being displayed by the principal interests, but among large groups of students who will be affected more or less for the rest of their stay on the Hill by the results of next Tuesday's election there is very little indication of interest. Perhaps much of this lethargy could be wiped away if these persons realized how much they can and will be affected by the ballot box. Of course, there are the usual council offices to be filled. Though the voters may not know the candidates personally, they should be informed as to the type of government represented by the men they intend to vote for. In the class offices the voters must remember that the chief responsibility is that of class finances. In addition to these matters are several of vital importance to all students, and consequently they should be known if the vote is to be intelligent. It should be remembered that the Jayhawk is one of the largest business projects in student hands, representing some twenty or twenty five thousand dollars. The office governing the year book should be filled by well informed voters. Also there is the co-operative book store referendum to be voted upon. This is a proposed project that will affect the life of the campus very decidedly, and for an intermittable number of years to come. Although definite information has not been presented to the students far in advance of the time of voting, they should by all means inform themselves albeit before deciding how to scratch their hallots. Election is almost here. No time should be lost in obtaining information on the many important information. Get all the facts: from reliable and varying sources and then vote to the best of your ability, but vote. Beethoven, dena a hundred years has been causing come Kansas newspapers considerable trouble. One insisted on celebrating his birth while another was short on spelling and so made it Mendelssohn. SPRINGTIME "Ding dong bolt, ding dong bolt; Hello there fellows, go to hell." Thus was the Hymn of Spring chanted gloriously and daringly by a freckle faced urwin who had turned the bough of a tree on Ohio street into a throne of his own making. Babbling with seed and energy, and in his rockless, carefree manner, he interpreted the meaning of Spring-time life to around him. Like the sheltered buds, his soul had begun to break the shackles of winter convention to hurt into something beautiful and free. Yes, Springtime, the season of oath, honec, and with it new hepes and new life and new aspirations. The world is in tune with the joeys days. The swelling bode wails mervily in the airee. Robin redirect, the harbinger of the new season chirpa prays to his new-found mate. Schoolboy forget their leeches and their sweetness to draw of marbles and baseball and fishin'. Skeel cavens rumply in the warm sunlight that looks the fields and meadows. A juniper blue-fly dreshes乱 against him sunny side of a campus building. Campus plains are changing from a out of brown to a new blanket of reecnish hue. Springtime has come. Wake up old ones, and get in tune with the world. Now that Mr. Durant has started his fight on Henry Ford and General Motors, we expect to see light car given away as premiums with the i-cr created enrollment fees next fall. ART De Gladiette Bilson --- Probably the rarest and best art exhibition that has ever visited Lawrence is the collection in central Addison, where he taught at the University by the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York, and to have it here for the entire month of April is an annual privilege for both Lawrence citizens and university students. The collection includes examples of the old schools, French, Dutch, Flemish, Greek, Spanish, Italian, British, and American. It is especially notable that there is an intricate amount of close detail which is characteristic of those old periods. On far more than back date on the 1620 school. As soon as one enters the gallery, there is a feeling of being in the presence of worth while art, the expression of old masters whose tenious technique the modern artist has outgrown, but who have still cultured and quality about the whole collection that has failed to characterize many of the exhibitions here. The portraits are of the highest rank. The picture of Mary Magdalene at the Tomb of Our Savior, by Jean Jacques Henner, with its simple appeal and deep expression is almost hypnotic in its attraction, and is most outstanding of the collection. Others of note are a portrait of The Prince of Orange by Mirabel Nina, by Morweidel by Morweidel by Morweidel, one of a man by Geldel, which has excellent expression, and several others. Several artists have used landscape subjects with interesting results. A marine landscape with the cool tone of ocean water and two spring landscapes by Rousseau have vitality and color and there is a fascinating one of a night in the Cathedral. A few of the landscapes, as well as a few of the others are rather weak; the Winter Light by Ochtman is insipid and almost entirely without ex- The budget conference for Monday, April 11, are scheduled as follows: 9:00- Society; 10:30- Geology; 8:30- Political Science; E.

I have had two year's experience in stores handling books and supplies; for students; as a result I feel that I am one of the most important to profit in such an enterprise. MABEL HERTZLER, President I want to clarify two questions about the bookstore proposition: 1. List price is the retail price an fixed amount of money the store would pay profits to the stockholders because common sense will tell anyone that the local book dealers are not in it for their health; and, further, if there is no money in books and supplies this town would not be able to supply them with books or amplifiers for college students.

As a whole the genre paintings are typical of their period and exemplify the life of the time. One of the coffee shops in London has reproduced in prints is My Bunkie, a western American scene. Some of them are worked out in such detail that they have only the effect of a painting; they will bear the desired scrutiny. Editor Daily Kansan: Many visitors have already seen the exhibit, and it is drawing many spectators and exciting much comment, as well. This year, the common lychman can readily recognize the fact that this collection is superior to the ordinary exhibition, and those who appreciate real quality in art should not overlook this prize. There will be no recital of the Meals Green Club Sunday afternoon. There will be regular rehearsal next Wednesday night. T. A. LARREMORE, Director a little. Questioning a good many students reveals that on the average they spend in excess of $25 a year for books. Our average yearly enrollment, for the just four weeks, is 1,592 students. This gives a gross text book sales figure of $134,500 or a gross investigation further reveals that each student spends about $10 a year for supplies. This makes a subsidies sales total of $163,290, and at an average profit of 39 per cent it returns $16-28. This makes the subsidies gross profit together we get a grand total of $229,565.

So, in order to remain conservative, assume that we lost $2,000 worth of profit to downtown stores; this would cost $5,000 on which to operate the store. Now for the store expenses let's be liberal instead of conservative and allow the following manager (permanent), $3,000; rent, $18; sixkies at $140 a month, $7,250; insurance at $6; $20 per week. This given a total of $10,000 for expense leaving $8,000 as net profit. In a co-operative book store practicable from the students' point of view? Draw your own conclusion.
