"First, last, and always, an athlete, especially a court man, who dreams of athletic fame, coupled with improved physical maturity, must abstain from tobacco in all forms. The student should be conscious of the heart, and this organ must at all hazards be kept clean by an everready, well oxygenated blood stream," says Dr. F. C. Allen, director of athletics in the University, in the first of a series of five articles written for basketball training for Karen schools.
"Give the stomach a bath every morning by drinking a glass of water at least twenty minutes before breakfast. Keep your water a day is a necessary supply for the average athlete. Mastache your food slowly. Eat toast when possible, as it required more through mastication—hence it is more easily digested."
Crust is Harmful
Crust is Harmful
"Avoid pies and pastries. It is the riest crust in pastry and not the saugest crust down the athlete. Starches and sugar are energy producers and a few pieces of candy immediately after a meal are helpful rather than injuries. Avoid eating between meals.
"Physical preparation is the axiom to the perfection of technique, and it is the preface to the courtist's chapter on endurance, agility, and bodily and mental poise. Groups of definite setting up exercises followed faithfully every morning, and coupled with proper habits of hygienic living will do more for the athlete than one season than the coach can possibly do in the same time in group training.
Mental Fitness Invaluable
Mental Fitness Invaluable "Mental fitness is even more valuable than physical fitness. Right mental attitude is the motor which determines the right beginnings. Have no time fires him with the zeal of loyalty to his conch, to his team, and to his school.
"Eight hours of sleep each night, consistency and honesty of purpose, and perseverance in one's efforts are the right beginnings. Have no time to injure the body, but conserve a life time to shaping and to building it. Crown your physical consistences with athlete idealism Forgetting about the common and is the final preparation in the athlete's devotion to battle."
The four other articles written by Doctor Allen are being released at brief intervals, finishing before the end of the basketball season.

"The Hindu' to be Here With Walker Whiteside And Original Play Cast
Many Noted New York Players in Cast; Sydney Shields is Leading Lady
Entering Newspaper World is Like Facing Battery of Guns Says Ex-United Press Writer
in the cast of "The Hindu" will be found Miss Sydney Shields, who has been Mr. Whitseed's leading lady in this production and who appeared with him in Lawrence in the drama, *Jewish Blessing*. Robert Louis Stevenson's great tale of that title. Miss Shields is the granddaughter of Colonel Smallwood, who was founder of the New Orleans Pleacyane. She is the daughter of the press agent in America and a prominent newspaper woman herself.
Walker Whiteside enacting the fascinating part of Prince Tamar, a picturesque Makhahir of Southmouth in Gordon Keenan's modern mystery play, will be appearing at the Bowsock Theater on Wednesday evening, March 7.
Chairman Pickler of the committee sought to have the resolution adopted at once, but the speaker ruled it should take the regular course.
Other well-known New York players in the cast of "The Hindu" are Harold Vosburgh, Harold DeBroker Grant Sherman, Elwyn Ecwen Santos Roberi, Madus Shau Grant, Mignon McClintock, and Messrs. Puzamba and De Sylva, Hindu musicians from Bombay, Indin.
"The Hindu," which is in three acts and a prologue, was brought out by Mr. Whiteside more than a year ago, and was given by him in New York University. At present Mr. Whiteside is engaged in a trans-countial tour. The play has had great success, and will be given in Lawrence with the original cast and production that has been on many of the larger cities of America.
Walker Whitese was born in Loansport, Ind., March 16, 1869. He made his debut as Hamlet in the Grand Opera House in Chicago, 1884, and made his New York debut as Hamlet in his own company, April 27, 1890. He served the United States in Shakespearian and classical repertoire.
Mr. Whiteste, whose home is in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York, belongs to the Lams and Friars clubs of New York.
"To be suddenly set down in the newspaper world," said Miss Alice Robe, for five years United Press representative in Rome and now a special writer for a news syndicate service, recently, "is like being in the center of an open space surrounded by artillery directed at one.
"The person who starts out in journalistic work has to battle all the while and must be something of a quick-change artist. To accustom oneself with this kind of writing's notice—and do it neatly and without great effort—is one of the most important abilities required in newspaper work. The act may be rightfully called 'cutting.' It can seem like things to be desired by a sub. It is called for many times in a day's work.
"The young man or woman who starts out in journalistic work need not relinquish the ideals he has formed in a university," according to Miss Rhe. "It is entirely up to the individual. There are plenty of destructive forces at work in the practical world which try to impress the newcomer with the all-importance of the dollar," she added.
"Newpaper work offers more pitfalls and hardships than any other profession. The many things learned in a professional training in a University cannot take the place of the practical experience which is obtained by contact with the business world, but it must be remembered that a thorough schooling is a decided advantage in any profession."
Speaking of the often-referred- control of the press by money interests, Miss Rheo said, "While it is probably true that Wall Street and similar institutions have an influence in the shaping of the policies of many
leading newspapers, the control is not all-powerful. In the case of the individual paper the policies are not controlled by any specific advertisers or outside influence acting through the business office of the paper.
"The attitude of the newspaper profession toward the schools of journalism has changed and now the worth of those schools is being recognized more and scaffold at less than before." Miss Roho added.
"The common idea that newpaper work is only a fascinating routine is entirely wrong. The work is really harder and more arduous than in any other profession and the graduate in the school of journalism is just beginning. The way is pointed out to the readers by the ideals and principles are given to him for company—then come the struggle for himself and his ideas.
"The broader a person's education is, the better he is equipped to enter the field of journalism," Miss Rose said in conclusion. "There is hardly any difference in which approach is required as in a newspaper office, and if the worker cannot properly respond to the many and varied requirements, he loses out. The demands are never the same from day to day because of the individual are often strained exceedingly, but tact will carry him through."
“In writing, the easiest and usual way is to do the thing which has the greatest popular appeal and, by doing so, to be the best one to return. The hardest but undoubtedly the best way,” she said, “is to stare on one's ideal, even though the reward in everything but personal satire is not worth it.” She has received from doing the easier thing.
Kansas has too Many Farmers for Efficient Production, Says Ise
"Need is for Improved Extensive Farming And Not Intensive Producing"
"There are too many farmers in Kansas," said Prof. John Ise, of the department of economics, in an interview concerning the farmers' high cost of shipping. "What we need is improved extensive farming and not the low-grade intensive producer that is being produced at high cost.
At the freight rate controversy being held by William B. Hunter, examiner for the interstate commerce commission, at the county court house in Kansas City, Mo., various opinions were given. Dr. David K. Mitchell of the Akron Agriculture College, and who is the chief witness for the railroads, admitted, when questioned by Judge C. M. Reed and D. L. Kelly, that the railroads owed a moral obligation to help the farmers in the "marginal areas," that is, those sections of newly opened farmland not moved from the marketing centers.
The small farmers barely live on what is left after the expense of production is paid. They must borrow in order to pay their high taxes; they must buy the equipment and better circumstances. The marginal farmer should sell out to the bigger and better agriculturalist and move to the city. He could make better wages and enjoy better living. The smaller farmers, carpenters, and shop employees."
"These farmers, persuaded by the railroads to take over these isolated farms, are particularly dependent on transportation to haul their produce to the markets. Without it they are cut off from the buyer. Any fluctuations in prices rate immediately endangers their livelihood," said Doctor Friday.
Professor Ise agreed on this idea to a certain extent. He said, "Of course the railroads owe an obligation to the farmers. It is only fair that we should give them some proposition. More than once has the western part of Kansas been depenultated. It is time for some permanent advancement. Not until the state is relieved of the excess of marginal land will the condition be improved."

Kansas is Not Too Poor To Spend for Education
"It is not because Kansas is poor that it cannot spend money on education," Chancellor E. H. Landry is told in a video about the Topkaz Capital Sunday, discussing the cutting down of appropriations for higher education. "The fact that education pays is proved by the education of Passuer by France."
"Kansas has more students in higher institutions of learning in proportion to its population than any other state," said the Chancellor. The report, which mentions shows the desire of the young people of Kansas for education."
Students at the University of Texas have been forbidden the use of cars, the authorities branding the motor car as a detriment to good scholarship and a badge of class distinction. The undergraduates have entered a protest, but so far it has remained without effect.

The World is Working for You
THE manufacturer who makes your shoes is working for you. So is the store that sells you shoes, your grocer, your clothier and every concern or person who makes or sells anything you buy.
Often these people have messages for you. They want to tell you about new goods,new styles,new prices or other new things they think you should know about.
They can't speak to you personally because they have so many customers to serve. So they put their messages in the newspaper in the form of advertisements.
It is to your interest to read the advertisements. They are published for your benefit. They keep you informed as to what these folks are doing for you. They help you buy the right goods at the right time and to make the most of your money.
Moreover, you'll find that business concerns that tell you fronkly what they are doing are the most dependable. Stores that advertise are progressive stores that have something real to say to you. Manufacturers who advertise their products have confidence in them, because it does not pay to advertise anything that is not good.
Reading advertisements is both interesting and profitable
