T sale of a stamp collection form-ly belonging to Wilhelm II netted the entele powers almost 12,000,000 francs. Now if the exkaiser can only scrap up enough old cigar bands, maybe he can pay off Germany's indemnity.
LOYAL SERVICE
FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1924
Twenty-one years of faithful servi-
vice to the University as a whole,
the chancellors, and five generations
of students. That is the record of
Miss Minnie Moodie, who recently
resigned as secretary to Chancellor
Lindley.
Miss Mooise has filled her position far more effectively and efficiently than the usual secretary to an official for her long experience has enabled her to handle many minor details of administration and give much valuable counsel.
In accepting the position as curator of the Thayer collection, Miss Moodie will only continue her service and loyalty to the University.
Fashion notes from Paris deere red hats, red cots, red shoes, red everything. Looks like a victory for the Socialists.
QUAKERS AND MARINES
A recent British invention may bring about the substitution of paper film for celluloid in moving picture reels. Celluloid collars ought to be cheaper now.
Will Philadelphia turn back to the Quaker bonnet and the chin whiskers of the pious? Brigadier General Butler says she might as well as for as vice is concerned.
Outgoing训队 are packed with dope peddlers, bootleggers, "snowbirds" and thugs. The general has them on the run, and he is just two jumps behind them with everything from tear gas to a battering ram.
Philadelphia asked the President for a general in the Marines to clean up the city, and when he came business picked up. Political interference has been tossed into the scrap pile with the badges of a lot of special privileged cops. The war is on, and the Devil Dog is at the helm. Will he keep the good work up?
It might be wise to look at the Marine Corps for an answer. Every buck private "irenee" can vouch for the unbuttoned blouse, the mud-patted shoe, and the three day growth of whiskers. Every offense means the pots and pans, and somebody is stuck every day in the year. No one ever heard of a let-up in the Marine Corps.
General Butler will not let up *Philadelphia*. He has set out to police the city, and the crooks will have to wait until he goes. The newly elected mayor is to be congratulated on his good judgment "picking a man for the job."
It is a pity that the marines cannot spare enough generals to exercise some real police authority in Chicago, New York, Kansas City and a few more of the cities in this crime weary land.
Marketing organization of farmers did more than $2,000,000,000 worth of business last year. On first thought, one would hardly "pity the poor farmer."
WHISPERING ELIZABETHS
Whenever more than a dozoon people meet in a public place there is sure to be one or more whispering Elizabeths or Williams in the group. Behind books, papers, or the backs of their hands, their lips move, their eyes twinkle, and they glance coyly at other persons in the vicinity. Perhaps they are saying: "Look at that last year's hat; see the way he holds his fork; or notice the mole on that woman's neck."
At the theater they glance around, and then as if an inspiration struck them, they turn to a companion and whisper something. Then both laugh boisterously. They always have a secret to tell someone, and are talking to members of the group about something that is unfamiliar to the others.
It seems that the offenders are self-conscious and to cover it up, must continually talk. Perhaps they are playing to the grandstand in the only manner they know how.
But the well-bred person includes everyone in the conversation and doesn't even give the impression that he is gassing, or rimarking about the appearance of others. He knows that it often causes unforgivable embarrassment.
Perhaps the reason some people are not well read is that they're color-blind.
THE WESTERN THEATER
Back in New York a successful play has a long run, and the newspapers and magazines are full of comment upon its virtues and defects. Months later the same play comes to the smaller town in the West. but theater lovers here see only the representation or mere skeleton of the finished play of the East.
The cast is changed to second-actors when the show inks to the road, with one star retained to draw the crowds. What is termed a splendid show when the lines were produced by the best of talent degenerates into cheap musical comedy which has to struggle to keep its head above the level of the burlesque. Attendance decreases at the theater, and the moving picture is accepted as the better of the two.
It seems that a successful show must first run in New York. All a westerner can do is smile, knowing that in a couple of years he will see the remains. The University Concert Course has brought in many great artists of the day to Lawrence, but it is indeed rare that a good musical comedy or light drama comes to town. They are worth too much money in the East.
"Too Many Apples Sent to En-
land" reads a headline. Evidently
English doctors are becoming bank-
rupt, according to the old adage.
SOMETHING WORTHWHILE
The reward offered is large enough that any student on the Hill might be well paid for his time and effort in submitting a manuscript.
Announcement of the senior play contest recalls to memory the successes and failures of this contest in former years. William Brehm won the contest two successive years with plays that were original in thought and clever in presentation. But last year no play, worthy of presentation by the senior class, was submitted.
The contest this year should interest enough students with play writing ability to furnish the judges of the contest with much material from which to select the play to be used by the graduating class.
On Other Hills
A new system of distributing grades at the University of Michigan arising from a desire that students pay less attention to individual grades in courses and more attention to course work. At this course, was passed at a meeting of the faculty of the School of Law and will take effect immediately in that school. By this new plan, students will not know what grades they have received in any particular course unintentionally. Students will be informed only of the number of hours of each grade which they receive during the semester.
