University Bureau of School Service Called on Widely
Advice to City Systems Results in Betterment of Work Offered for Entrance
Solution of the problems and investigation of conditions in elementary schools, high schools, and junior colleges in the state is the service given to cities of Kansas by the Bureau of School Service and Research, directed by the University. Surveys have been made which include data on the kind required by the school under observation, the sort of build necessary, and the best organization.
Many Insufficiently Prepared
Prof. T. OBrien, of the department of education, said this morning that the most significant result of the service given by the bureau was the fact that the cities of the state have shown their appreciation of the competent advice on the subject related to school problems.
Many Insufficiently Prepared "The faculty of this University has been immensely interested in the work of students entering K. U. with insufficient preparation for college work. The members of the faculty are interested in better schools for the state in order that the students coming to the University will be prepared to take the study of subjects included in the curriculum." he said.
"Many of the schools who went ahead with their building programs, their plans for a better teaching force and a more extensive course of study have directed their efforts in the wrong direction, and as a consequence have had to retrace all the steps made in this direction.
Now Making Novel Analysis
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
"In the study of schools through out Kansas, those interested in the work have found that the building project was made by the valuation placed on members affected. The questions which must be worked out by the bureau are in regard to financing the plans of a building to be erected or remodeled.
Now Making Novel Analysts
"The attempts being made now by the Bureau of Service to make an analysis which would be videoed in the different cities and counties is the first of its kind ever made in the state.
Two Methods of Influence
The second problem faced in most cases for investigation is in regard to instruction and error. The survey of the school system and its success so far. The third step in such a survey is made for the teachers' salaries and a true schedule. Such a report was later last spring for Atkinson, he said.
Two Methods of influence "Reports influence culture either directly or indirectly. In the direct method the investigation is made for the city itself by the board of education in the method the board of education in other cities is influenced by the survey pamphlet dealing with similar conditions in another vicinity.
"The advanced standing committee has been benefited by the surveys made by the Bureau of Services and by the Department from which a standard may be made."
Blake Hall Undergoing Thorough Repairing
Blake Hall, which was built in 1893, is undergoing a thorough repairing and redecorating on the interior. This is the first interior repairing that the building has had. The work, which began two weeks ago, is part of the cause' of the size of the building and the condition it was in.
The woodwork throughout the building has been rewarmed, the walls painted, and new ceilings of sheet iron have been put in. New wiring has replaced the old inefficiency of the fireplaces that furnaces have been installed. Nine rooms are yet unfinished, including the office on the second floor.

"Join the Navy and Learn as You Sleep'
Washington, Sept. 27.—Two medical officers have been assigned by the navy to make a scientific investigation of the problem of how radio students learn while sleep, it was an important U.S. U. S. Navy Department here today. Success in training wireless operators by the "sleep" method at the Naval Air Station at Penacola, Florida, has led the way to recognition of importance of this new departure from standard methods, state officials.
The method used at the Pensacola station is to attach receivers to the student's ears just before dozing off, and send continuous messages, at a moderately fast rate of sneed to them as they go to sleep. A very marked and consistent improvement has been shown in the cases of backward students who have been instructed by this method.
