One Room Schools Biggest Problem- Code Commission
Recommendations and Findings Kansas Educational Dr. System Printed in Pamphlet
The worst single fault of the educational system in Kansas is the poor work done in the one-room rural schools, according to the report of the school code commission, appoined by the last legislature to spend two years studying the educational system in Kansas and to make recompensations 10/2. These findings are in print and may be obtained from F. L. P., secretary of the State Teachers' Association, Toreka, Kans.
Topics:
commission believes that only by improving rural school conditions can the progressive landowners be kept on the farm. At present an ever-increasing percentage of farms are coming into the hands of tenants.
It recommends that the minimum length of the school term be increased eight months and that transportation be provided for school children who live beyond reasonable walking distance from the school houses. They found that because of lack of transportation the average daily attendance was only 70.1 per cent of the number enrolled in the schools.
The school code commission is recommending, also, a constitutional amendment whereby a different method of taxation may be employed so as to lift the burden that now vests upon tangible property it in, and upon other with natural resources, and incomes new left unattained in the state.
Other recommendations of the commission have to do with certificates of teachers; approval of school building plans in order to avoid the waste and inefficiencies of buildings, now being constructed in many cities; the state's stricter standards in the x-axis; conditional education in the various trades.
Motorless Flying Expert Invents Speed Retarder
Paris (By United Press).—Lincoln Manleyong, the aviator who just broke the world's record for motorless flying, has completed tests of a novel feature on airplanes that permits the plans to throttle down to almost a walking pace and still maintain headway. He will fly planes to maintain a speed of from 25 to 40 miles an hour to stay in the air. The invention consists of an attachment whereby the width of the wings is increased or decreased during flight, by pulling a lever. During the first tests Manleyong飞 at 125 miles an hour, he was able to land without the slightest bump at only 125 miles an hour.

Rats Will Meet Waterloo,
Says Modern Pied Piper
Oklahoma City, Dec. 7. "If you see a rat coming toward you, don't fight. Run!"

Rowley predicted that hundreds of *1862* will die here in the near future, from eating an original poison he is setting out.
"But before the rats die," the Fied Piper warned, "they are going to go all for air and are going to take it. They will have death in their eyes, they will have death in their eyes, their ruth is for said air. A rat bite is far from healthful."

"Junior Section For The 1923 Jayhawker A Reality"-Hudson
Want Glosses Before Holidays Deadline is Set For January 5
"The junior section of the 1923 Jayhawk is going to be a reality," said Ted Hudson, editor, this morning. "Already about two hundred junior reservations have been made, and more are coming in every day. These people can see the benefit they will devise from being represented in the newspaper."
The deadline for all glasses at the daymaker office is January 5, according to Mr. Hudson, but he wishes to urge that all who can possibly do so should turn in their glasses before the holidays to aid the editors in caring for the data necessary to go with the gloss.
"Full information must accompany each gloss, and this must be turned in at the office with the picture. This information copied on our records, the glosses must be properly cataloged, for the outage all of which required a timely time, and if everyone waits until the last minute it will be much harder for us to get everything accurate", said Mr. Hudson.
that they are booked solid for sitings and those who have not yet arranged for their pictures will have difficulty in getting a date. However, every studio in the city is doing its best to meet the demands for photographs, and the editor does not believe that it will be impossible for all to have music by Juniper if it they will only make an effort to get a sitake.
All Lawrence photographers report
"I would like to see every junior and every senior have his pie are in this year's Jayhawks," said the editor, "and I believe if they could only be made to realize the benefit of being represented in this, the only permanent record of their University life they would not hesitate"
Mr. Hudson made a trip to the printers and to the engraver for this year's annual report and reports this defi- nition of the entire 600 pages are fast taking form.

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 an devery concern or person who makes o rsells anything you buy.
Often these people have messages for ryou. 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 spea kto 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 you rinterest to rea dthe 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 an dto make the most of your money.
Moreover, you'll find that business concerns that tell you frankly 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 is does not pay to advertise anything that is not good.
Reading advertisements is both interesting and profitable
