Candy Making Explained
Demonstration Held at Fraser Shows New Methods
A large number of students and teachers witnessed the candy demonstration in Fraser hall Wednesday morning at the school gym of Pointe Hill, Iowa. The making of chocolate creams, peanut brittle, and peanon rolls was demonstrated. In addition to the explanation of other matters, various questions answered.
The demonstration brought out the fact that candy which costs from 75 cents to $1 per pound can be made in the kitchen without having to use extra equipment. Ordinary creamy fondant was used for chocolate creams and costed with baked pot Chocolate to a slow fire and beaten with the fingers to the right consistency.
For peanut brittle, 4 cups of sugar,
1 cup Kroger, and water sufficient to
dissolve it were cooked to the soft
ball stage, after which 3-4 cups raw
peanuts were added and cooked until
the peanuts are roasted. A pinch
of soda was added just before
removing from the fire.
Recipe books used by the Stewart Candy Company were sold at the demonstration.

University Postmaster Says Students Usually Wrap Packages Safely
Postoffice Has Large Business;
Most of Mail Handled Is
Parcel Post
"Students usually, are reasonably careful in wrapping and addressing correctly packages which are mailed at the University postoffice," said R. C. Abraham, postmaster, when responding to a course. There is room for improvement, but I find students very willing and obliging in inaddressing or rewrapping packages which are pre-printed with envelopes addressed to be mailed safely."
A glance through the postoffice window at the packages and bundles piled high within is sufficient proof that the University postoffice, in the basement of Fraser hall, is a very busy place. According to Mr. Abraham, the greater share of the packages and bundles ent home by students.
The office takes care of a majority of the other duties which fall to the average postoffice. The only duty that is given to the Sigma kappa is the handing out of letters to individuals. At present letters for the Sigma kappa security are left at the postoffice, the Sigma kappa route of any letter carrier.
The University postoffice, as a regular lawfully recognized station, came into existence a year ago last month. Its service was handled through the Registrar's office. Since that time the volume of its business has gradually increased, according to Postmaster Thomas L. Brennan, who charge continuously since that time.
It is probable that the postoffice will be moved to the Administration building at some future date, thatateach student may move to campus. It is the opinion of some, however, that this will inconvenience students to some extent, making it necessary for them to carry their bundles almost across the campus.

Two-Day Runs Successful
Other Dramatic Club Plays to Be Given Twice
Two-day runs have proved successful for the K. U. Dramatic Club plays and will be continued, according to Sam Weatherby, business manager for "The Devil's Disciple." There will be two more plays produced this school year and a two-day run will be given to each.
Two full houses greeted the first of the dramatic club productions and ticket sales amounted to about $250, besides the Student Enterprise tickets, according to Weatherly. Expenses for the play are estimated to run about $600 a day and they drive the road, due to the need of acency necessary, the large cast, and the general expenses of production.
To flashlight pictures of the last scene in "The Devil's Disciple" was taught Tuesday evening by Frank Rinker for the Jawahir School reception by Rising and the least set used in any amateur show seen in Lawrence.
