OFFICIALS IN SCHOOL
Yesterday marked the beginning of the school of water works and sewage disposal at the University. City officials representing towns from all parts of Kansas are in attendance at the inauguration of the new plan for the betterment of the water and sewage systems in municipalities. Each representative will be given a chance to present his own problems at the round table discussions, and it is hoped that the purpose of the "school"—better civic conditions—will be realized.
K. U. has made the start to give all plant managers, who so desire, a chance to receive scientific information from several noted sanitation experts. Every water plant in the state would be benefited if they took advantage of the possibilities of the new "school" here. Those who are in attendance are from the most progressive towns. Others will follow the example of sister cities; and judging from the enthusiasm and interest displayed at their first meetings of the "school," it is going to be a success and next year will see a repetition. It's the sign of the water. The times worked on the Hill presages municipal advancement. We welcome the plant managers of the most energetic Kansas cities.
Will some kind benefactor of the human race step forward and offer to the public an acceptable substitute for tobacco in preparation for the approaching abolition of the use of the weed? Something like near beer.
A KANSAN LEADS AGAIN
The achievement of Eulalia Dougherty, senior woman who was recently declared the winner of a five hundred dollar prize contest against all the university women of the country, is something more than a victory in a writing contest and the acquiring of a considerable sum of money.
The chief merit of Miss Dougherty's work was pretty well expressed by the editor of the magazine that conducted the contest when she said: "This article does much toward exploding the idea that having to work one's way through collegeSOURs one on the world and detracts largely from the benefits of the education secured in this manner."
Certainly Eulaia Dougherty's work, and she has worked all of her time here at the University, has done nothing to sour her outlook upon life. Neither it has it destroyed her efficiency scholastically. In everything that she has attempted during her university life she has led. In the journalism department, where she has majored, she has made the name of being one of the most efficient students that department has seen for years.
Kansas should be proud to have its University women represented in such a way and by such a woman as Miss Dougherty.
SENIORS, PAY UP!
SENIORS, PAT 01.
The original time limit set for the payment of senior dues is now past and it has been found necessary to extend the limit in order that a respectable showing be made. The Alumni Office has guaranteed that if 350 seniors pay in dues equal to the budget worked out it will return from its share a dollar for each senior to be applied to the purchase of a class memorial. This is something that should appeal to every member of the class as it will permit of a more worryful memorial.
There seems to be a feeling prevalent with many seniors that in paying the full extent of the budget they are being imposed upon. If so it is because they have not attended the several senior meetings at various times during the year. At several of these meetings the need of the budget has been made clear and the various items that make up its total explained. Those who are still in ignorance can even new have the budget explained to them.
It is to be feared that a large part if the negligence of those who have not as yet paid the dues is caused by a lack of class loyalty or perhaps even a touch of laziness. Be what it may, this is no time to suffer from spring [fev.r.] Seniors, pay your dues!
"POP" ANSON
One of the greatest figures in baseball's Hall of Fame has passed away. "Pop" Anson was a player of the old school. Few of the men who knew him early in the game are alive to do him honor. Of these, Billy Sunday, the evangelist, and Charles A. Coinsky, the "Old Roman," of the Chicago White Sox, are perhaps, the most famous. There was a time when Coinsky, managing the Red Sox, met Anson, then manager of these same white hues in a world's series. Such are the chances of the game.
The memory of "Pop" Amson will always be dear to the men who saw the uphills and downhills of organized baseball. And they will always know his as a man who believed in putting everything he had into it and who played the game as a true sportman. He was a credit to America's most popular sport.
BROOKLYN, TOO
Emporia is not the only virtuous city in the United States. Brooklyn a suburb of bizzarre New York, has accepted the challenge which our Kansas neighbor town recently issued to the world and has gone Emporia one better. Yesterday huge three sheet posters displaying all the feminine attributes of Pavlowa heralded the eminent appearance of the Princess of dancers in that city. Today the posters show only the face, arms and torso of the graceful Pavlowa. Brooklyn had covered 'em up. Even Brooklyn has a limit, say Brooklynites. And this public parade of the feminine charms of this exponent of the Grecian art over stepped that undefined but nevertheless existent line. The performance is bad enough, think the Brooklynites, but a three sheet advance paper of the nude is the limit.
ROUSING THE UNIVERSITY
In answer to all this rumpus with Emporia and her new sister in arms Brooklyn, have aised, the plea is made that art is art and Pavlowa should be endured for rt's sake. Legs is legs but Pavlowa's perfect limb should not come under this vulgar cognomen. The ancient Greeks and Romans appreciated the artistic in the nude, why can't we? Thus argue the critics who feel that Brooklyn and Emporia acted rather hastily and with ultra-putitian motives. Possibly so. But why crudely display the physical charms of Pavlowa on a huge three sheet poster? Is that art? The poster itself did not give an added concept of the grace and art of the unique dancer. It's appeal was not artistic but was to the baser emotions of man. It was a sexual appeal and as such the action of the Brooklynites is to be applauded.
It is not uncommon for someone working for some drive who has never tried the experiment to exclaim, "I wish we could get the entire student body interested in this movement."
little thing, as a rule, are not anxious to try again. They have learned that to get the entire student body interested in any given thing is quite a task.
But those who have tried to do this
In the first place there are four thousand students here. It is possible to reach a large number through the Kansan. Personal work will reach just as many, proportionately, as a project has workers. Meetings only get a few. Appeal by letter is a little surer than any other method, but expensive.
Secondly, K, U is located near other large towns so that at least a third of his students leave Lawrence over weekends, the best time to inaugurate any campaign. Other schools located farther from cities can put across many propositions on Fridays and Saturdays that would fall flat if launched here at that time.
There are many campaigns launched at K. U. each year. Don't think the next time you read in the Kansas of one movement being started here that the generals, captains and lieutenants of the campaign are going to have an easy time. They will probably be much easier, somewhat saddener before their campaign closes, but they will have the training and discipline that comes from having tackled a hard job and put it across.
Plain Tales from the Hill
Sensible Letters to Sensible People (with apologies to K. C. B. and Carl
Sandburg.)
To a Certain Boy
You are a stude on the
Jolly old Hill
I mean that is what
a people call you.
But you're not a stude,
Not e'en an ornament.
It would insult a parasite
To term you one. You're
Simply in the way.
What a catastrophe it would be
If that top button on your coat
Should break. Then your
Show and you would be
Disgraced
Forever.
You have curly hair that some People think you curl Assiduously, And the girls think you Are a marvelous dancer But some people think You look like a whirling dervish Who has gone mad is trying to Dislocate his neck or his legs Or his arms. Some day you're going to have To take off that corduroy vest And then many buckets of Tears will fall from the Eyes of those who see you For you are so good-looking And when we eat it is gone you Won't be so good-looking Pavlowna does a dancing part.
Student's Health Code
ner.
Somebody should go.
Why don't you?
It is better to keep well than to get well. A bird's eye view of the illus of humanity reveals the fact that nearly all ill health is traced to some pathogen, and not hygiene. These laws are concerned with the matter of diet, exercise, personal cleanliness, sensible clothing, work, recreation, etc. Every individual should have efficient instruction in physiology and hygiene, which finds its application in the prevention of disease and the preservation of life and health.
Personal Economy
Medical science today is more concerned with the prevention than the cure. Typiphoid fever, small-pox, scarlet fever and malaria may be prevented entirely or kept from occurring. Diphtheria, pneumonia, and influenza do not respond so well to control measures. The individual through precept and influence should be made acquainted with the cause of disease and in the public interest take steps to prevent or reduce the intention to the service rendered humanity, and good health means personal economy.
Thirty-ix fraternities will enter the race for the baseball crown at Cornell University which begins next Saturday according to the Cornell Daily Sun.

Credit Rating GUIDE
to be Published Soon
The Business Men's Credit Exchange is preparing to publish a Credit Rating Guide for this district and the surrounding towns within a radius of twenty or thirty miles. This guide is made up from the actual experience of the subscribers as to how people pay them. Hence it is to be hoped that everyone will make an effort to pay their "past due" accounts in order to be rated "prompt pay." The subscriber of this service will not only know how everyone in this district pays his bills, but may find out how strangers meet their obligations, no matter from what part of the United States they may come.
