Duties of Deans of Women Told in Radio Speech
Luncheons and Teas Serve to Bring K. U. Women Together, Says Miss Husband
"The most difficult problem and the one demanding the greatest effort on the part of the dean of women is that of individual acquaintance with the women of the University, of Iowa, of her faculty and counseling with them in their individual difficulties," said Miss Agnes Husband, dean of Women, of the University of Kansas, over WDFA, Kansas City Star broadcasting station, last night. She said women were the biggest women in regard to the development of the social life at the University.
"One of the most effective means for attaining acquaintance with the girls and between the girls is an upper-class girl of outstanding personality acting as assistant hostess for a luncheon group, which meets at noon in my office. She brings her friends over more than half of whom are upper-classmen and not more than half of whom are sorority girls. The luncheon is announced for 12:30, and is very informal in character. After luncheon the time is given up to talking about the problems of the women on the campus, largely the current situation," said Miss Husband.
R. A. Schweger, dean of the School of Education, will be away most of this week giving lectures in the interest of Education Week. The most important of these lectures will be at Coffeville, Thursday, where he will be the principal speaker at the dedication of the new junior high school. His subject will be, "School Influence on the Coming Generation."
Dean Must Adjust Differences
One of the best ways to become acquainted with the other girls is to attend the series of teas which are given through the Women's Student Government Association on Wednesday afternoon at Henley on Lake Trinity, University, and are a splendid means of acquaintance and sociability in the right sense.
Schwegler to Give Address
Sigma Kappa gave a dinner at the Oread Cafe Monday night.
The work of the office of the Dean of Women in regard to the development of the social life of the University falls naturally- under two heads; the most important being in the supervision of the living conditions of the women students, and the other the inspection of a certain house when a student turns in a case of sickness and the adjusting of differences between the keepers of such houses and the students.
Dormitory Relieves Situation In addition to these privately owned rooming houses, the University houses accommodating about fifty girls. The work of the house is done by the girls by a system of shifts, thus lowering the cost of living exacerbated by overcrowding home life and pleasant friendships.
"The new dormitory, Corbin Hall, which was ready for occupancy this fall, is of very real assistance in the residence problem, not only in the number which it accommodates adequately, but also in the standard facilities," said Dean Husband. "It is governed by the girls themselves and has an adequate constitution which covers all its needs. It is becoming the center of life for the University women." Dean Husband continued.
Wire Brushes Change Appearance of Library
"Just plain wire brushes with a little elbow grease is changing the appearance of the new library," said C. G. Hamilton, an engineer with the Neuman Construction company. "Cleaning and pointing up the stone is not hard. We'll work then we will be ready to put on the roof. A portion of the frame work of the roof has already been erected." Practically all of the stone has been laid and the building will be completed in a little less than the time it takes to build it, which is the engineer's opinion. At present most of the laborers are cleaning the stone and the bricklayers and stone masons are doing the pointing.

Peking Alumnus Writes
Ewing C. Scott Sends Greetings to Dr. E. H. S. Bailey
Dr. E. H. S. Bailey, of the chemistry department, has just received a letter from Ewing C. Scott, a former student of the University, who is now a professor. Scott is an instructor of chemistry in Peking Union Medical College. He sent this letter in reply to an invitation from Doctor Bailey to be present at the celebration of his year teaching in the chemistry department;
Oct. 24, 1923.
Every once in a while something happens that makes me wish mighty badly that I might be back in the States and back in dear old Kansas again, even if only for a little while, the last thing of that sort to occur, and one making me wish most urgently for some sort of a muscle carpet ride to attend the dinner in honor of thefortieth anniversary of your taking up the duties of Professor of Chemistry at K. U.
Of course the dinner had taken place before I even received the invitation, but I can at least write to tell you how much I should have given you. We would felicitate you upon the completion of such a splendid term of service, although it is we, rather, the students who have studied under you and in your department, who should felicitate you only hope that you will round out a full half century before you see fit to retire from active service.
most sincerely,
Ewing C. Scott.
