"Do you think it would look badly if I wore this old satin dress to school this morning?" "I hate to throw it away but I just can't wear it to dances any more." These questions and many more are up to the college girl when she is invited out. Proper and improper clothes were shown for the different circumstances that a college woman would be in. The apron and housedress were taken up first. By the use of living models it was shown that flat low-heeled shoes, a plain and easily washed dress and aprons that wore over them to protect the dress from things that might be spilled upon it, should be worn. The new vogue of knicker suits were shown to be the ideal dress for the hiker and outdoor girl, as contrasted with the girl wearing a satin dress, cape and high heels. Outfits for tennis and outdoor browns, full skirt, mildly, and a close fitting hat that will shade the eyes. The well known middy suit and plain simple wool or gingham dress and the wool skirt and sweater were shown to be the proper dresses, for women of all ages. The bright and harmonizing scarfs and small sport hats are deemed as the proper costume for the street in the spring and summer, as the heavy dark suit of tricinex or velour for the winter with low oxfords and small nurses. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, MARCH 30. 1922. For the teas and receptions, the hostess should be attired in a light dress with shoes and stockings, hormonizing with the dress. The low necked dress is improper for either the hostess or guest, also the jewelled comb. It is very appropriate for the guest to wear a dark taffetta dress, gloves, hat and cape. If the guests expect to stay, she may take her cap off and the glove on her right hand. The appropriate suit is one similar to the white shirt with a small dressy hat, dress slimming of the kid or patent with white kid gloves. The sport suit which is so popular now is not good for an afternoon tea or reception. Party dresses that should be worn by college women are plain and simple with touches of bright color either in the trimming or by carrying a fan. Fancy slippers may be worn. A party dress with no sleeves and low neck is in very poor taste for the college woman to wear, for according to books on attirete, the college woman has not 'come out' yet. New Committee Organized in Connection With Y. M. C. A. FORMCITY FELLOWSHIP GROUP A new committee has been formed in connection with the Y. W. C. A. group, which is to be called the City Fellowship Group. The group will have a two-fold focus and will take up girls work of all kinds on the Hill, and second, the actual application of the work accomplished in the study classes. This application will be under the supervision of the community organizer, Dr. Bernice Smith is at the head, and the centre community center under Mr. Root. The study classes will first take up general girls' work, with Miss Barnes at the head and when this is completed the girls' work as conducted by various organizations such as the Camp Girl's Foundation, Girls Friendly society, the Eight Weeks Club and any other organization sufficiently interested. From time to time, it is the intention of the group to invite speakers here and to have interested town people talk to them. The first meeting has been called for Saturday at 4 o'clock in Henley Hall. This meeting of the City Felowship Group is to get it formally organized and to set the stage for development and to design on the organized studies. J. L.

An interesting art exhibition is on display in the third floor of East Administration Building this week for the benefit of students in public school art and the general public as well. The exhibition consists of fifty-eight mounts sent from Teachers College, Columbia University, New York. The exhibit represents work done by children in the grades third to tenth, inclusive, in two practice schools under the supervision of the College. The work is very representative and interesting for that reason. "A casual observer might easily see in the crude forms and color schemes of some of the work a striking suggestion, from the standpoint of spontaneity at least, of the unhampered freedom of the extreme modernists in painting," says Miss Ketaham, head of the department of design, "and the freedom of treatment in some cases is truly artistic in effect." ENGINEER TO TALK BY RADIO Kimball, Cornell Professor, to Speak from Schenectady N. Y. There are examples in black and chite, water colors, and color in paper-cutting. Some of the arrangements show remarkable imaginative designs and in stage decorations. A display $t$ design is shown in surface patterns for bowls, flowerpots, and plates, and in many attractive arrangements or Christmas cards. The art department's visitors are welcome at any time. The exhibition to follow this one will be announced later. Everyone having a wireless telephone set will have a chance to hear D. P. S. Kimbali of Cornell University on April 4 when he will speak through the radio sending station of the San Francisco Company at Scherdepelt, N. Y. A letter received by the president of the student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers here at the University announced that Professor Kirkman, A. S. M., E. W. would give a message to the engineers of America at 8:30 o'clock eastern standard time, or 7:30 o'clock central time on the night of April 4 from the radio station at Schenectady. The talk will be made on some important engineering tonic of the day. The call signal which will be used to announce the talk will be W. G. Y, and the wave length will be slightly over 360 meters. The Schenectady station is powerful enough to be heard as far away as New Orleans and Denver and arrangements have been made to have it relay so that it can be heard all of the United States and southern Canada. This talk shows the possibilities of the use of wireless in broadcasting the speeches of prominent men and allys at great distance to hear speakers. Solons Try to Eliminate Cash Feature of Bonus Washington, March 30—A move will be made in the Senate to eliminate completely the cash bonus features of the soldier bonus bill as passed by Senator Smail, with a vote today, after a conference with President Harding. The House approved giving the cash bonus only to men whose total compensation did not exceed $50.

Dafn, for example, is the entertainment under way, but have not been fully decided as yet. EXPERIENCE ON SMALL PAPER K. U. Man Urges Newspaper Men to Get Small Weekly "Newpaper men are coming more and more to realize and take advantage of the inducements of the small town weekly," said Paul J. Brindel, fa14-17, in an interview this morning. Mr. Brindel is visiting in Lawrence a few days before going to Edwardsville, Ill., to assume control of the. Edwardsville' Republic which he recently purchased. "Arthur Brishea spoke at the University in 1914," said Mr. Brindel, "and advised the students to stay in the country. Some of us are rather slow about taking his advice, but we are gradually drifting back." According to Mr. Brindel, the advantages which the ownership of a country weekly has over a position on a city paper are: financial independence, reduction in living expenses, and a chance to promote public welfare. While in the University, Mr. Brindel occupied various positions on the Kansan staff. He was also the University correspondent for the Kansas City Star. After leaving the University he worked for some time as a telegram editor on the Des Moines Register, then worked with the Associated Press in Chicago and Kansas City. Since returning from the war he has been employed in the Chicago Daily News, the Herald Examiner, and for the last year has been working on the Illustrated News in New York.

William Bleam, c'24, with withdrawn from his classes and left for California Wednesday, upon the advice of Dr. John H. Curtis an outgrowth of his oversees service SPRING ELECTION DATE IS SET FOR APRIL 6 Voted Upon at That ... Time Two Amendments Will Also b Voted Your st. That ADVISORY BODY MAY GO Nominations For Offices Will Be By Petition—April 3 is Deadline April 6 was the date set for the spring election by the Men's Student Council last night. At that time there will be elected not only the usual officers elected at this time, including cheerleader, members of student council and Athletic Board, and officers of Student Council, College, and School of Engineering, but also the business and manager of the JahayWer, who have previously been elected in the fall. Two amendments will also be voted upon. The one concerning the publishing of the Jayhawker, which was put before the student body a short time ago, and another, passed by the council last night, to do away with the Advisory Assembly of the Men's Student Council. This body was created by the constitution of 1920 to serve a check on legislation passed by the Council. Its personnel is composed of one member from every men's student organization of fifteen or more universities, the largest number of men are represented several times while many others are not represented at all. Aside from this defect in structure, the reason given by the Council for the amendment, is the fact that it has never functioned and it seems better to do away with it because it must contain it as a fiction in the constitution. Nominations for the above officers will be made by petition, as usual. Petitions for members of Student Council must contain twenty-five names and all others, seventy-five. All petitions must be accompanied by one dollar, sealed, and in the hands of Louis F. Miller, 1215 Oread, Secretary of Men's Student Council, not later than Monday, April 3. ORMERSTUDENTMAKESLOAN James L. Mead Places Money at Disposal of Loan Committee James L. Mead, president of the Mead Cycle Company of Chicago, and a former student of the University of Kansas, has placed at the disposal of the University Loan Committee a total of $10,000 which is to assist needy students through temporary financial stringencies. Mr. Mead's enthusiasm in the Student Loan Fund is stimulated by the fact that he, when an undergraduate at the University was benefited by his assistance, and he feels that he is interested in contracted debt who has fallen due. The total of the Student Loan Fund now amounts to $20,000, made up from gifts of classes, former students, and those interested in the welfare of the students at the disposal of the Fund by the late will of Uncle Jimmy Green. There has been an active loan tut at the University of Kansas since 1894 and according to George O. Foster, registrar and chairman of the college, "the cost has been lost through willful failure of the borrower to repay. No More Feature Numbers Of the Kansas Engineer At a meeting of the Kansas Engineer Governing Board yesterday it was decided to make each number of the Kansas Engineer a general issue instead of a feature number for each case as has been the custom here tofoe. The feature idea will be carried out to some extent, but every branch of engineers will be represented in all with items of personal and local interest. In two weeks another meeting of the governing board will take place at which every society is to have two elected officers and a board of electing officers for the board.

I. Parker, connected with the same company at Chicago, arrived here this morning and will speak to the senior director of the National Institute of Electrical Engineers tonight at 7:30 in Marvin Hall. Mr. Parker will be the main speaker of the evening and will speak on the different problems confronting the graduates of electrical engineering in manufacturing. Mr. Parker is a former graduate of K. U. in 1912. Mr. Pfeif is here mainly to secure likely candidates for positions with the General Electrical Company. Every year this company takes some of the jobs in Kansas. Last year seven men were taken out of the graduating class. To Be Located on South Slope of Campus, Near Heating Plant INIVERSITY TO HAVE ITS OWN GREENHOUSE That the University is at last to have a greenhouse of its own as well as professional landscape gardeners to design the whole campus was the information divulged from the botany department today. "We have been trying to get a greenhouse for the last twenty years," said Prof. W. C. Stevens, chairman of the department, "but it seems that the State legislature has been inducting adequate greenhouse for use in instructional work and to aid in beautifying the campus. For the last few years the department has been laying aside funds in view of a rainy day when the state would be without snow so we have about three thousand dollars for that purpose. "That amount of money will not build a large greenhouse but will erect a structure that will serve much better than the present quarters where the specimens are grown under the roof of Snow Hall. Much material must be built to form it. It will mean a great saving since much material is spoiled because of insufficient apparatus being used." The plans are to locate the new greenhouse on the south slope somewhere near the new heating plant, as an important factor is securing the first steam from the plant. The greenhouse be constructed sometime this summer. Landscape gardeners from the firm of Hare and Hare, Kansas City, Mo., have been employed to design the whole campus. Most of this work is being done by S. Hearn, a consulting designer at St. Louis. They will have charge of planning the location of the new buildings, extending the drives and walks and the planting of trees and shrubbery. It is also the preservice teacher who altered since they are very unsystematically laid out, according to Professor Stevens. No Decision Debate at K. C. Drew Large Crowd "From the standpoint of the audience, the K. U.-M. U. no-decision debate which was held in Kansas City last night was a great success," he said in discussing the event. In spite of the fact that a number of political meetings were being held in various parts of the city, Professor Shih said the debate was more successful and even attended a previous debate at either of the two rival schools. The no-decision element, along with the fact that the debate was held at Kansas City, was new departure from the usual custom of inter-college debates. The lawsuit against the debate was: "Resolved, that the Kansas Court plan for planning industrial disputes should be established throughout the nited States." Kansas had the right to form a jury for more than an hour after the debate was concluded. The members of the Kansas team were Clarence Harvey, Snell Knoll and Forrest Rogers. Those on the Missouri team were Inez Calloway, A. C. Tripp and A. L. Jurgenmeyer. All those of the K. U. debating squad were in attendance and a great number of the debating squads from surrounding colleges and high schools were also present. Gladys Heath, c'22, is the first member of this year's graduating class to secure a position through the Teacher's Appointment Bureau. She will teach Spanish in the Concordia High School next year.

Charlotte Erhart, chairman of the alumni committee, reported on the alumni fees for the graduates of the class of '22. All these committee reports were accepted by a vote of the class. Upon the recommendation of Henrietta Mitchell, chairman of the memorial committee, voicing the approval of the entire committee, the seniors voted for a clock, to be placed in the new Union Building when it is completed, and to put the senior memorial in some other building that needed a clock until the completion of the building. After the completion, the seniors voted their approval of a senior mixer for men, to be held some time soon. It was also decided that there should be no upperclass function on the Thursday before Commencement. The entire expenses required by the seniors was formulated into a budget with a sum total of a $7.50 assessment per capita, and the class accepted this budget.

'SIAMESE' TWINS DIED TODAY Surgeons Worked All Night to Save Famous Pair Chicago, March 30—Rosa and Josefa, "Siminess" dined, died here early today. Josefa, who has been in a stupor for nearly a week was the first to pass away. Her sister Rosa died fifteen minutes later. Dr. Benjamin Breakstone and a staff of eminent Chicago surgeons worked all night to save the life of the famous pair. Their battle was over, and the two set in. The twins had been suffering from ear-earring jaundice. Josefa has been near death for nearly a week. Rosa was apparently in good health until two days ago. She made up her mind, according to Dr. Breakstone, that she wanted to die with Josefa. Frants, the twelve year old son, of Rosa, was with his mother when she died. The boy, normal in every way, had been taught to sobbed when the end was pronounced. Calls for Teachers to Teach in Alaska John E. Lanze, superintendent of Schools at Juneau, Alaska sends a call to the University of Kansas for commercial teachers, teachers in manual training, science and mathematics in the high schools.
