Extensive Survey Of Kansas Rivers Made During 1922
Water and Sewage Labora tory to Determine Extent of Pollution of City Sewage
--by Mr. John Powell
Marius D'Anlande ___ *Pourdrain*
At the Postern Gate ___ *Brandecomb*
A survey of the Kaw and its tributaries was made during 1922 for the State Board of Health, and the records from the samples collected are now being correlated under the direction of Albert H. Jewell, director of water and sewage laboratory of Lawrence.
Samples of water were taken every two weeks from seventy-five sampling stations on the Kansas, Smokey Hill, Saline, Solomon, Republic, Blue, and Delaware rivers. Duplicate samples were taken each time.
Samples on the Kansas river were taken twice as often as those at other stations, as samples were taken on both the going and return trip.
The trip was made up the Kaw to Junction City, up the Smoky Hill to Eldsworth, then across to Lincoln on the Saline, down the Saline, and across to the Solomon, on the Solomon to Beloit, and then from Beloit across to Concordia on the Republican, and back down the Republican to Junction City, down the Kansas to Manhattan, up the Blue River, Marysville back down to Manhattan and down the Kaw to Lawrence.
W. R. Schreiner, former bacteriologist of the laboratory, and Paul S. Fox, assistant engineer for the State Board of Health, made most of the trips. Mr. Jewell made several trips to keep in close touch with the work.
Samples were taken of the water above and below the confluence of streams, and above and below cities having a sewerage system, in order to show the extent of the pollution from the cities. When two cities were sewered together, samples were taken between them to see if pollution took place. About five thousand samples of water have been analyzed.
Work Completed This Year
The field work was completed in January, 1928. The stream graze titles have been compiled from the titles have been compiled from the records kept by the United States Geological Survey and the United States Weather Bureau. These records will have to be used with the water anatomy condition of the stream and the factors affecting the stream.
Johnson Addresses Forum
In order to arrive at any conclusions it is necessary to work over the material, tabulate and arrange it in different forms for study in conjunction with other information such as the populations both rural and urban as well as industry waste. The data are then used to the State Board of Health until about two more months, according to Mr. Jewell.
"Unreasoning Power Governs World," Hardy's Philosophy
“Hardy's philosophy, as expressed in his poetry, shows a belief that the universe is ruled not by a dual power of good and evil but by a single blind, unreasoning being, lacking a consciousness of its own acts,” said Prof. W. S. Johnson of the department of English in his talk on the University of North Carolina’s Hardy at the student forum in the Unitarian church Sunday.
Great disasters such as the World War, Hardy believes to be the result of the blind workings of this "imminent will" which, however, may possibly in the future consciousness which will regret its former actions. The "tragic irynice" of life which so frequently compose the theme of Hardy's works are the result of the unequal conflict between human endeavor and human accomplishment. Hardy is often known as a pessimist but his defense of humanity is clearly shown as the belief of life including the second well as the bright side.
Professor Johnson pointed out three great reasons for the nature of Hardy's philosophy: first, the great contrast between the beautiful landscapes of one portion of his native Wessex and the harsh haren setting of the other; second, the numerous evidences of the historic and prehistoric hardy environment in this part of the earth, finally, the influence of the after-effects of the Napoleonic arms upon his mind when he was a serv.

Bill to License Editors Considered by Oklahoma
Oklahoma City, March 12.—News paper edithers, reporters, and all persons handling "copy" for publication will be required to pass an examination and pay $10 for a license if the bill introduced in the upper house of the state legislature today becomes a law.
The bill provides for the revoking of licences in case of "unethical acts" by newspaper men. There is a provision that "cubs" would not be licensed, but that their editors would be responsible for their acts.
Chancellor Lindley Says Honor System Theory Is Typically American
Adoption of High Standards During College Career Will Last Afterward
"The honor system is intensely American," Chancellor Lindley said this morning, in an interview concerning the system of the honor system of the system in the University.
"There is no reason why the students of the University of Kansas should be less honest than the students of other universities. It has always been the policy of Americans to play squarely and there are as many Americans in this University as in any other.
"of the honor system would merely broaden the student's outlook while he is in school, it would even for the four years be a system worthy of adoption, but the honor system is bound to influence the lives of men and women after they have been from the University," he continued.
"It is unfair to the state which spends $1000 on every student who stays in the University four years, to cheat, to pull down the standards of a great institution, and to lessen the value of a diploma.
"It is unfair to the student himself and to his fellow students to bluff his way through four years of college work. It often happens that you are required to go on examination secures a lower rating than the one he helped. It is true hat the dishonesty of a few lowers he standards and discourages the honesty of freshmen who have come from university with high ideals and standards.
"It is difficult," continued the Chancellor, "to play the game when those around one are cheating in examinations. But any action which will further this movement must come from the students. It will be their spirit of leadership which will establish the honor system."

Grid Dinner Scares
"Henry and Me"Away
An exodus of Kansas celebrities has begun. The possibility that the state may be entirely devoid of prominent men by March 28, the date of the state's independence, is necessary to build a fence around the state. The Gridron Dinner with its prospective exposure of events which have supposedly been forgotten in the well known fugitives of Kansas has played a jantic among Kansas notables.
"Gridieron," with its citation of hatred, has caused such a furore of anxiety among those invited to attend the affair that Sigma Delta Chi, journalistic fraternity sponsoring the affair, is seriously considering changing the name from "Gridiron Dinner" to "Lily White Dinner."
The original impulse to change the name of the dinner was received when it was discovered that William Allen White had left the country after an inking of the proposed Gridron Dinner had reached him. He is described as a dapper, ranchero and has arranged his itinerary so that he will not have to be in the state the night of the event. Henry Allen, former governor, has arranged to sail for Europe on the l aquatic Nantucket, one of the fastest ships afloat, March 26 to wake before the evening's dinner. He says his trip is made for the purpose of investigating conditions in the Near East, but members of the "Hawkshaw commute", which has been gathered the fuel to put under the grid when the former governor's turn came. For the time being, he wished, "Henry and Me" have equations to preserve.
