Dr. Thomas Finegan, late superintendent of public instruction for Pennsylvania, outlined the problems of public education in the modern age; n' as talk at convocation this morning in Robinson gymnasium. Doctor Finegan was for a number of years Pennsylvania and has always been a student and leader in matters permitting to public education.

NUMBER 25
"And that," said Doctor Fiegan, "is the purpose of education, now, as then, to train men and women for itizenain."
States Provide Education
In the constitutions of the state governments there is a provision that the state shall provide for a free system of public education, he said. Education is essential for the common welfare of the state. The fundamental education is that free and equal education shall be accorded to boys and girls.
There is a general unrest in the world, caught Doctor Finegan, and it has caught education up in the whirl. Everywhere a demand is being made or larger and more adequate facilities in public educational institutions. Education is now as always a national problem.
Rural education has been neglected so long, he continued. It is growing more complex every day. In order to meet the principles set forth by the new constitution, it must be taken in the rural educational system of our country.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley urged the trudent to carry this message of his modern educational problem into its home community to meet the questions of taxation for education. The programs for the campaign were issued last summer, and also commended to the student body, y the Chancellor.
System More Complex
The educational system of today must be designed upon it the same as any other industrial industry developed upon such large scale and so vital to the welfare of the country, he declared. In order to meet these new demands, the system must need be more complex.

Ielium Plant for Kansas
Prof. H. P. Cady Discovered Gas in Cowley County
Plans for the erection of a helium extraction plant are being made by the Dexter Helium Corporation, an organization composed of Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma capitalists, in Cowley county, Kana.
Helium is a non-combustible gas that is being used entirely by the United States government in its air service, because of the advantages it has over ordinary gas. The new ZR-1 air dirigible uses helium exclusively. The demand for the gas comes from the fact that it exists in great quantities in Cowley county has interested a number of capitalists.
Several years ago, wells were drilled in Cowley county and natural gas was found in abundance. It was not known how much gas was found unsatisfactory because it wouldn't burn. Prof. Hamilton P.Cady, now professor of chemistry, at the University of Kansas, first discovered the presence of helium in that region.
Only one helium extraction plant of size is in operation, at Fort Worth, Texas, and with the increased demand for helium, it has not been able to furnish it in sufficient quantities.

Seven hours during the first night's rise, the boats had to be taken higher ground.

U. delegation to Nebraska, nevertheless, it will be impossible for the part of the students and the faculty of the town-scene people, who are backhung, to attend the game in person.

"Blood Flowed Freely" in First Kansas Game
This business of devouring Missouri alive on Turkey Day is not a new version of football. It was practiced by the Crimson and Blue teams in the first game played on McCook field, with Illinois as K. U.'s opponent.
In that game which will live forever in the hearts of those who saw it, the sturdy little Jayhawk came through the line with the victory and the great hopes for the championship of the Mississippi Valley.
"The Kansan," an example of cooperation between the four newspapers which lived and died in the early history of the university, gave me a little insight. It remarked a little proudly that the game was viewed by 800 spectators. "all of which points to the fact that although McCook field was considered an out-of-the-way place, theAttendees shows that people will go there."
The paper went on to say that if it was indeed a struggle between the teammate was fiercely and stabbably contested with glimming to the finish and blood flowed freely. Nearly every player received some injury, and Hall, of course, had been shot.
"At 2:30 the Illinois team marched inside the ropes and the warriors of the crimson began to feel a little heavier than before. The lows line up against our small boys. The Illinois team looked like winners, but there was a facial expression and an airity in the movements of the players. They victimized in a hard fought field." "Slugging was indulged in," said the Kansas, "but not to the extent of ovious games. When time was running out, the score was 6 to 4 in favor of Kansas.
