THE KANSAN MAGAZINE SUPPLEMENT TO THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Volume XXIV With Housemothers' Ears Many Noises of Strange and Unexpected Origin Disturb the Sleep and Arouse the Curiosity of Sorority House Guardians Oh, but the life of a housemother! True enough, it is a life of wakefulness, but it is also a life of strange and interesting sounds—for those of them who have good ears. Lawrence, Kansas, Sunday. March 20, 1927 "I never can sleep," one housemother declared," for the girls above my room are forever making a noise." "I can almost always tell by the music they play, whether my girls are alone, or have a date," another housemother explained. "If they play slow, sentimental music, I am rather sure that they are really playing." If they play quick, lively music, I know that they have a date and are dancing. In explanation she related how every night and every morning a piece of furniture was dragged across the floor, and in a few minutes, dragged back again. Investigation showed that the furniture was in a chair which one of the used to sit on while combing her long hair. "From my room," said another, "I could hear dates come to the front door, and stand there talking sometimes for half an hour. I did not exactly approve of this, and told the girls Another housemother explained that she frequently had heard terrible crunching noises, but after inquiring used as a rocking chair was being used as a nut cracker. "Sometimes the dance music is followed by a record or two of the more sentimental type. Then there is a dead silence, broken only at great length by a resounding smack!" Each night, one housemother hears the shuffling and dragging of feet and slippers, as one by one the girls of the house cross the room above her at various intervals. "One night I heard a girl come home. It was after closing hours, but for some time I could hear the distant murmur of voices. When she came in, I reprimanded her for staying out." "Oh, but Mother—" she excalled, "he proposed to me right there on the front face." "Goodness gracious! You folks do make more noise than anyone I believe I ever knew!" That night the noise was changed to a continuous flap, flap, flap. They were playing bridge. "But we have decided that those who go through our room to the sleeping porch are the ones who make most of the noise," they declared the next day. And so it goes. Perhaps it is the creaking of stairs as some burner of midnight oil snacks to the kitchen for some coffee, a cookie or a sandwich. But oh! The life of a housemother! SPRIG SOG As Brounid sage, the hill's dee-peared, The sand is on the thorn All thighs are all right with the world— At least they were this bark. Tis now the hip to sig of syrph With all its liveliness; With birds and been upon the wig And holds in airy dress. But when I left by doubledeck the grass with frost was wet, So let us flatter and clip anchie to widen fluddles yet. WIN A PRIZF The Kansan's Greatest Contest!

Fears have been expressed that the women of the University may get a head start on the men in this contest, in view of the fact that in the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to what a young lady has been thinking about all winter.

Number 136 Deans of Women Do Elope Startling Revolutions Show That Student Advisers and Disciplinarians Are Human Despite Strange Bits of Advice Sometimes Given The deen of women! A person who calls wrong-doers into her office and in language stern and convincing dictates what should and what should not be done. A woman who strikes terror into the hearts of all who must interview her, and whose will must be obeyed. How often this is the opinion held by college students of deans of women! Deans of women of other schools, a reporter has learned, have advised women against eating prunes or catup from going on a date, and against the use of Three Flowers or Ben Hur perfume, saying that these thins make one excited. “Your lip-stick and rouge,” one dean of women declared, in addressing a group of women students. “No wonder that a man's emotions are moved! The brilliant colors of your clothes! How can this world help going to eternal damnation?” The "bearded lady" for an such was she known by the students—gave a deep sight and knew what they were seeing. "God pity and help the poor boys and girls of this age!" she said plaudibly and in her voice. "Take for instance the jangling jazz which your orchestras play," said another. "What could be more suggestive? It should be slower — God knows I've tried to tame trombone and saxophone players. It should be slower, more soothing to the nerves; more refined and more complex." I thought it would be which one might dance with perfect safety. Of these I might mention Humoresque or—" Still another dean of women explained the placing of spikes on the window sills of the doritories by admitting that they were to keep people from getting in, and incidentally, from getting out. "It has been done for your own protection," she said. "We have people from going wrong. I have a personal interest in girls, in each of you, and I want to keep you pure." But not all deans of women are of this type. For the past three or four years students of the University of Kansas have won deans' awards, but the local dean has handled cases of dis discipline. Through years of study, the reporter has learned that in some instances persons guilty of misconduct are led to a more humane, more understanding treatment of other their mistakes through having personally experienced the thrills of misbehavior in the days of their Deans of women, for instance, have been known, in their younger days, to have eloped. In fact, the dean of women of a middle western university—an institution, incidentally, situated on a high hill—is said to have eloped when she was 15 years old.
