6 Hotel Fund Grows Chancellor Points Out K. U. Benefits Lawrence to Have More Visitors; University to Profit by Contact With State People "The University has much to gain from the presence of a good modern 'hotel in Lawrence,'" said Chancellor H. Lindley, this morning in speaking of the program current among Lawr. ice merchants for the erection of a new building. "I have been informed that a number of fraternities have made considerable number of the faculty have contributed to the Hotel Buns Fund. "The value of the new hotel will affect the University advantageably. It would not only make it possible for many friends of the University to visit Lawrence in comfort but such a hotel would attract a large number of state conventions to Lawrence. Each conference would be attended by a University in contact with a considerable number of representative people of the state. Provision For Conventions "Cities in which there are competing institutions make large provision for such conventions in the interest of their respective institutions, Lawrence and the University cannot cop with these conditions unless adequate facilities for housing and entertainment of guests can be provided." Many Organizations Donated The active interest which the organizations of the University have taken in the matter has resulted favorably. Various sororities and fraternities have made pledges of from each semester to pay four quarterly payments within the year, March 1, June 1, September 1, and December 1. The organizations which have so far donated to the Hotel Bonus Fund are: Alpha Omicron Ip, Alpha Xi Delta Sigma Chi, Delta Upsilon, Kappa Sigma, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Other organizations already pledged but as yet have not been reported to the treasurer. According to the treasurer, the contributions of the University are contributing very generously. Since the report meeting held Friday, $1480.00 had been raised by Tuesday noon. Division "D" raise $500 of this amount, making the total $1980.00 raised for G. Hill and Prof. Herbert Hungerford are members, $408.00. At Tuesday noon the grand total was $44,588. A full report of subscriptions was not given as some of the members were not represented at the meeting. The remaining $1,600 to make up the $0,000 goal is planned to be collected by Friday noon at which time a report meeting is to be held to confirm the remaining $5,000 are to be announced at the meeting Friday.

One is a comprehensive set of blocks designed by Dr. Raymond C. Moore to illustrate faulting. The different beds are indicated by different types of rocks in sections that may be taken apart, to show the effects of erosion. A set of nicely turned imported crystal models were also received. This group, consisting of 225 pieces carved out of pear-wood, is called the Penfield collection. It was designed to illustrate chapter 5 of the Brush-Penfield "Determinative Mineralogy and Blow-Pipe Analysis." Sunspots Exercise Effect on Rainfall, Says K. U. Professor Observations Made in Lawrence Correlated by Data From Many Counties "A rainfall period equal to one-ninth the sun-spot period does exist," says Dinsmore Alter, associate professor of astronomy, in the University of Kansas Science Bulletin. "The first date examined were those from Lawrence, where records since 868 are available. "Once a stretch of five years was found which resembled another five quite closely after eliminating the seasonal curve. Another time resemblance was found after about twenty-two years. All such were easily extinguished. I also seemed useless to carry the work further with the data at hand. "The next move was to examine all sun-spot data in order to find out whether a period also exists in sun-spots. The results have been unconclusive, some evidences favoring the existence of the period, but not being definite enough to settle the question either way." This paper completes the investigation, using much longer records and the date from the United States, Northern Europe, Central Siberia, the Punjab in India, Chile, South Australia, Jamaica, and Madagascar. Numerous tables and curves are given. The conclusion reached is that the period does exist and that the relationship to sun-speeds is not a direct one but due to an unknown common cause. In purely continental areas the variation of the amount of a minimum of sunspots. For areas with rainfall between these types the period is not plainly found.

We must build our own bridge of faith to come across, and if we don't believe, we can't achieve. We cannot think constructive attitudes with non-constructive mental attitudes." The methods by which prices are set was discussed by Robert C. Line of Columbus, Mont., in his talk on "Pricing Goods to Make a Profit." Four methods were discussed by Mr. Line. The first method is that of offering an option to pay a price article. This price cannot be raised without removing the tag." The second method is by the use of custom. The Ingersoll Watch Company was used as an example. The second method is so that when the company raised the prices, customs had to be changed. "Prices as set by your competitors force you to sell at a certain price that illustrates the third method," he added. Merchants Outline New Business Methods Here Prices Should Be Set by Method Prices Should Be Set by Method Prices set to harmonize with the before mentioned forces was the fourth method discussed by Mr. Line. "The manager should not set his prices by guess. He should work out the problem on a scientific basis. This is to be done by first determining the article and secondly determining the cost of running the business." Miss Frances M.
