THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN "Strong Affinity for School Developed During Formative Years of Life"-Professor Olin "More than fifty years ago when this part of the state was still sparsely settled, a small boy riding in a covered wagon which was p.o.m. by the people of the village under the bows of the wagon and caught his first glimpse of Mount Oread. At once he felt an irresistible force drawing him toward it, but little did he know how great a life he would play to play in his life in later days. "The first building of the University, Fraser hall, was then in the process of erection. The north end was practically completed and the south end was just rising above it, so the central part was not yet started." "During the early years of his life the boy made his home with his parents near the hills across the valley of the Wakaura, and as he ploughed the fields, of the farm, his gaze would wander to Mount Orean, and his soul was filled with longing. When he saw the man he made a vow to himself that sometime he would become a student in the college there. "Several years later, after he had taught school in a little brick schoolhouse a few miles distant from there, he did become a student at the University, and sat at the feet of such men as Miller, Robinson, Canfield and Snow. At last he had realized his ambition—his goal. Calendar for the Week **Announcements for this column should be telephoned to Kansan news room, K.

And though his home came to be some hundred miles distant from the University, he often made trips which took him through Lawrence. From the window of the University, he watched as the University shining through the evening dusk, and it was such times as these that he was mildly envious of the man whose work was done by students who had been the lode-star of his life. 4:30 Senate meeting, Blake hah assembly. gylimastuff. 7:15—W.
