Prof. F. P. OBrien Publishes Bulletin on English Study
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Experiment in Supervision of Learning Language Is Described in Article
"An Experiment in Supervision of English" is the name of a. bulletin which has been published by Dr. Dr. D. H. B. A. president of school service and research.
Teachers Under Supervision
All teaching during the tests was done by the regular teachers, under the supervision, to some extent, of Doctor OBrien and his assistant, Miss Jafet E. Fink. Throughout this experiment the chief emphasis was
live and intelligent interest in their own school achievement, so that the evident improvement in the work of the students, both individually and collectively, was due to the efforts of the students entirely. The supervision came only in the direction and environment of the work of the students.
Results Are Gratifying
The results of the tests were very gratifying, Doctor OBrien said. Measurement of progress was made in the second grade and the eighth grade in one school manual an average gain in spelling equivalent to approximately a year and a half of progress. Percentage gains were also measured and many of the students scored well much at 50 per cent. The figures have been compiled in order to give English teachers all over the state an opportunity to see the actual results of practical supervision, Doctor OBrien said.
Since a large per cent of the students who are preparing to teach are majoring in English, the information provided is important to a number of students, as well as to English teachers over the state, according to Doctor OBrien. The bulletins are available free of charge, and the office of the school service bureau.
Budget Plans Being Made Department Heads to Present Ideas at Meetings

--twenty-five new prints of famous painters selected from the collection of prints published by George Barry and Kenneth Barrie. One was placed on display at the Spooner Thayer museum. Some of these painters are: Burne Jones, C. Troyon, J. Constable, F. J. Millet, C. Romney, I. Israelis, P. Holbein and D. Van Dyke. Another is a collection of Indian swishes, a few and Scotch paisley shawls, a few oriental saddle blankets and two pieces of Indian embroidery in the basement of the museum. One of the pieces was a Dutch woolen shawl, a bohkara shawl, a shawl woven in stripes and then sewn together. This shawl received the gold medal at the French exposition in 1855. Another noted shawl is an Indian shawl which came from the country of India and lady in waiting. A printed French tissue was called a ring shawl because it could be drawn through an ordinary ring. One of the Indian shawls in the collection is recorded as being 500 years old. The art figures are about two hundred years old.

THE MAGAZINE SECTION OF THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN for April 3, 1927
Thoughts of a Bachelor by a Fraternity Man
"When first I loved, I gave my very soul Utterly unreserved to Love's control, But love deceived me, wrenched my pouth away and I was left alone. Long lived loved, Long lived loved, I tried in vain With any other joy to stifle pain; There is no other joy, I learned to know And so returned to love as long ago. I gave you the same gift of love. Love lightly now in self defense."
Whether or not Laurence Hope believed in the essence of these beautiful and pathetic lines I do not know. But this I do know, that I am not a cynic; neither am I guilty of having an antinomicon for wankmind. Far from being a cynic am I, for I have an inherent love for horror and sorrows, and I have experienced both.
Far from being a woman-hater am I, because to me, women-most women at least, are interesting and are to be respected and treated with respect. But I don't know that my mother was a woman and the memory of her and others of her gracious kind shall linger with me as long as memory lives. I cannot help respecting most women because she is an important part of my life. I have liked and have enjoyed knowing.
There are types of women for which I have a real aversion. They are the modern flapper without an original idea in her head; the gold digger who thinks of nothing but what her man's money can buy for her. By her "man" she means the one who is with her at the exact moment. The following moment she may mean an entirely different person.
But the type of girl I like best of all! She is not the type of girl I liked several years ago. She is not the type of girl I was once engaged to, but rather, she is faithful, intellectual, an easy conversationist. She has poise, she expresses grace and charm, and above all else, she is sincere and is striving toward an ideal. She looks on marriage before the age of thirty, and he looks on that in the best qualities within her. She believes in a career for herself. She has confidence in herself. I have never met her!
This is pleasingly put, and no doubt is true. But to have experienced this thing called 'loving and losing' is to have gone through a bitter ordeal, but one which teaches as it em-
The thought of marriage, at present, is revolting to me, partly because of the thought of loss of freedom—freedom of thought, freedom of action and freedom of life as it should be. In other words, the thought of marriage. To marry and settle down is an old thought expressed unwisely, I believe; but
Tennyson said, "Tis better to have loved and lost. Than never to have loved at all."
In general I like girls very much. I like the pachish of good girl friend, but in particular, I like no girl to the extent of falling in love. To me, at least, life is a seething mass in which we must all give and take, share for share, in which all of us should be on a level of equality, more or less, and in which sex position is not so clearly marked as formerly.
RAIN! RAIN! RAIN!
Moddy, flooded, crowded streets;
Rain in torrents, rain in sheets!
Nahk's arck we must revive—
or surely dwindle ourselves alive.
—Letha Dunham

Engineers
I know something about engines, too. For instance, if you want to cool off your engine, just strip the gears. That'll do the work; but the engine won't do any more.
I'm supposed to write on Engineers. I didn't know that engines had any ears. If they don't like what I say, they'd better not get on their ears about it.
I was going to be an engineer. They told me that. I'd have to take steam. But all of my friends said I wouldn't need to do that because I had enough hot air already. Somebody else said I'd better just take an anesthetic. But I took the stuff—the steam I mean—anyway. I got tired of these kinds of steam—that a turban turban is the kind of hat worn by headened crys al gamers.
Lots of cars have crank cases. But our car doesn't have one. I know because it has a brake pedal.
We used to play train down in the country. Daddy used to drive the sheep, but I was just that.
They say that engines have fly wheels. We've seen them, but I've never seen any of them on bicycles.
I don't think that they should let them have wheels anyway.
But fly wheels or no fly wheels—our engine won't run. You see, it's lost its head.
I'm sorry—W. F.
I am not able to support myself as I would like to, nor shall I be for many years to come, so far as I can see, so why should I incur any other responsibilities by marriage. I am willing to love generally and lightly, but certainly not particularly nor warmly.

Immersion
"Personally I have no objection to baptism by immersion either for myself or for others," or
Do you believe in baptism by immersion, or do you think that mere sprinkling with "holy" water is sufficient to cleanse a person of his sins? This question has been asked a number of University students and the answers have been varied.
"I have adopted this attitude toward the subject since coming to the University, however. In my freshman year I learned to swim with my head under water, coming up to breathe only once in a while. Having developed the quality of immunity from drowning in such a position, I feel perfectly safe in this statement of prudent."
"In warm weather," said another, "I believe in total immersion, but for the cold weather when the temperature is hugging the zero mark and the wind is blowing a fierce sleet gale, then it is that the Methodist doctrine of dampened foreheads has its appeal."
Still another person is of the opinion that baptism by immersion will undoubtedly go out with a certain grace, but you should believe, the custom becomes highly superficial and unnecessary. This of course is, he admits, the opinion of a hide-bound athlete who has not been baptized in water. Otherwise, can ever wash off anything except dirt.
One student, when asked whether or not he would immerse his children, replied that he would.
It is evident from these few interviews that students not only do not take the question of baptism seriously but also do not know the first principles of baptism.
"In the practice of baptism," another student declared, "most people are immersed before they receive their first breath in the matter. The many arguments in regard to the question are promulgated by those who have been already baptised in one manner or other, and are certain that their method is correct."
"Baptism is a ceremony of the church which is very symbolic of religious belief. Abolition of the ceremony would mean abolishment of the holy foundation upon which the church is built.
"Which method of baptism should be used? Really, does it make any difference? In each case it is a religious ceremony, and you may accomplish the same results as the other."
"I do not believe in baptism at all." a fraternity man declared with finality. "When one unites with the church, let him do so and serve any outward show of form and ceremony."
A woman explained that "to be on the safe side" she had been immersed and was none the less frightened.
We have been told that figures never lie, but we have seen some on the campus that are too good to be true—Montana Kaimin.
