ournalism Press Now Hires More Student Printers
Varied Kinds of Job Printing Turned Out by Kansas; Hill Work Done Mostly.
More students are employed this year by the department of journalism press than ever before, according to a report by the department. This is made possible by a greater demand on the part of the University for the services of this department. The publishing of a book is one such feature which calls more for printers.
According to Guy Pennock, school superintendent, about twenty-five students are on the working force, most of them working a more or less regular number and three regularly employed in the mechanical department besides the superintendent. They are J. K. Jistler, foreman, E. J. Barnes, pressman; and E. G. Stith, headline man. All other employees, whether lintype man, plenary or ceramic man, or composers, are students.
Six Kansans Issued a Week
The Kansasan, published six days a week, is a part of the work turned out by the department of journalism press. Other publications which has been proven can be published more satisfactorily on the campus where they may be constantly under the guidance of those in charge are: The Graduate School of Journalism association; the Kansasan Engineer; the school of Engineering; the City Manager Magazine; the Kansasan Municipalities magazine, and others. The Kansasan gives laboratory work to the students studying journalism, and the printing department, as such, is the only laboratory on the campus where he imbibes its own equipment besides, according to Mr. Pennock.
Work of Standard Quality
In addition, many small jobs of printing for the various departments of the University are too small to send to the state printer and can be handed best on the campus by the University's own printing plant.
Work of Standara quantity.
Although much of the actual printing work is done by students, all work turned out is up to standard in the library, according to Mr. Pennock, for the students employed at such work have had previous experience in the printing business. In addition, all work is under the constant supervision of the superintendent or foreman.
- The department of journalism press has found a real demand for its presence on the hill, and has grown rapidly to meet that demand. The equipment has increased gradually in cases of type and a couple ofpresses to four lintypes, a monotype, a stereotyping outfit, a Kelly automatic job press, a Mielle cylinder press, Cleveland folder, two platen presses, a line of display and foliage, an Addressograph and Graphype.

Navajo Baby Models Clay
Dolls Made by Child Resemble Ancient Fetishes
Clay dolls patted into shape by the baby hands of a four-year-old Navajo japose may overturn finspun theories of learned ethnological science. Fowkes, chief of the bureau of ethnology of the Smithsonian institution, who has just received a collection of 200 Indian child in northern Arizona
These dolls are remarkably similar to images found in excavations on prehistoric American city sites and thought to be fetishes or magic charms worn by savage warriors as a protection against injury. The dolls are about two inches high and bound together them apparently represent women. The little artist painted to furnish them with any eyes, ears, or noses.
Dr. Fewkes admits that it is possible that the joke is on the ethnologists. He said that in the course of his numerous excavations on ancient Egypt, he found many such images and interpreted them as fetishes. The images unearthied may have been used and the childish working of the adult savage mind in the preoccupation with the precocious product of the modern Navajo child.

Collection of old Hand Made Rifles and Tools Sent to K. U. Museum
Handle Depicts Hunting Story Wrought in German Silver Inlaid on Curly Maple
A collection of gun-makers tools and hand-made riffles have been received by H. T. Martin of the department of paleontology. "This collection is probably unmatched in the United States," said Mr. Martin.
In this collection are four perfect muzzle loading rifles from four to five feet in length. These guns we are all made by hand by Mr. W. S. Heniger of Jewell, Kansas. Mr. Heniger was a graduate in the palacetone department.
Mr. Martin of this department is gradually making a collection of old type rifles, revolvers, and shot guns which are valuable addition to the department.
There is one remarkable weapon in the collection. It is a double-barreled rifle of over and under action. There are also three single barreled rifles. The stocks which are made of fine curly maple extend to the end of the barrel and are beautifully inlaid with German silver. The inlaid work on the stock of the double-barrel gun picture a hunting figure. Figures from German silver were found from German silver and laid in the handle. Mr. Heniger镁 used these guns in the early seventies when buffalo hunting was in its urine.
"These rifles carry me back to my boyhood days when I read Moorish Pirate tales," said Mr. Martin.
Among the tools are two old riffling machines that were used to make riflings in the gun. These tools are rare and to the future generation will be quite instructive as to the way that guns were made by hand.
There were also some boring tools which were used to make the inside of the竿绳 barrel true. The corksounders used to make round-rundered users to make bullet moulds, and a number of groove cutters. Groove cutters are rare and few people of tool use know what was required of that kind of work, said Martin.
Carl Henniger, c26, is the son of Mr. W. S. Henniger of Jewell, Kansas.

Dyche Museum Houses Large Collection Insect Specimens From All Parts of the World
A place that should be, but very often isn't, included in a survey of interesting spots on the campus, is room 302 of Dyce Museum. In this room are local museum collections collected from all over the world. Raymond H. Beamer, who is in charge of the collection, is there every week day, including Saturday, and is always willing to help the benefit of his and knowledge.
The collection ranges from extremely small bugs to the brilliant gutterflies of the tropics. The butterflies are especially fascinating, for among them are found every color and design used by human artists and many that man has never reproduced. One specimen looks exactly like a large pansy and others are the color of forget-me-nots,
cheets, tiger lilies and one is even the shade of ashes of roses. They vary in size from seven inches between wing tips to so small they can hardly be seen with the naked eye.
The Mathematics Club will meet Monday, Oct. 27, at 4:30 in room 201 East Administration building. Professor Mitchell will speak on "Mathematical Reckoning Among the Ancients."
The beetles and dragon flies are also lovely with shimmering iridescent wings and in the case of the beetles with strange fantastic markings. In addition to these there are many insects whose names are made of their destructiveness and the desire to discover a way to combat them.
Many of them have been donated by friends of the University, but the majority have been collected by members of the entomology department, who have been sent on expeditions for the gathering of this material.
