GUEST George McVey Margaret Laskill Wilfred Husband Stella Dollah Hill Dorothy Fleeson Dorothy Fleeson Artur Rumberger b Billy Jacqueline Gilmore Raymond Dyer TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 1922 HUNDRED K. U. GUESTS The University of Kansas is today host to over one hundred merchants from all parts of the state in attendance at the seventh annual short course. We welcome them to Mount Orcad and we are honored to have them with us. If the week's conference will help these business men in their work, or give them suggestions that will make their trade more interesting and remunerative, the University will consider the course a success. Prominent speakers and lecturers are on the program. They will offer the results of experience and study for the benefit of the merchants. Constructive suggestions and plans will be outlined in order to make the merchant's trade more effective. The time required for attendance at the course ought to be time well sent; the instruction received here may help to promote a new era of successful merchantile business in Kansas. Students at the University are on the welcoming committee. Their duty lies in making the visitors feel at home and in creating a good impression of K. U. life. A better acquaintance between the University and our guests will mean a better and greater University. OUR WAR HEROES How many students have stopped before the bronze tablet on the south wall of Fraser Chapel, read the inscription on it, and wondered who was Alfred Cecil Aelford and the ideals of manhood for which he stood ? Few of the students on the Hill now were living when A. C. Alford, First Lieutenant, commanding Company B, Twentieth Kansas Infantry, U. S. A., died at the head of his company, while leading an assault upon an entrenched position near Calocan in the Philippines, February 7, 1899. Today the Veterans of Foreign Wars, post 852, at Lawrence, have in his memory named their post the Alfred C. Alford Post to honor the first son of the University to die on the field of battle. Judge D. S. Alford, his father, was graduated with the degree of A. B. in 1871, at Wesleyan University. In 1873, when Mr. Alford came to Lawrence he was admitted to the bar, becoming an active member until the time of his death in 1904. In 1874 Mr. Alford had the degree of A. M. conferred upon him by his university. The same year he married Susie D. Savage of Lawrence, who had barely escaped death during one of Quantrell's raids of the Civil War. Three brothers and two sisters of Alfred C. Alford have been graduated from the University. His mother is at present in Coffeyville with one of the daughters who is teaching music in the public schools. Fred, as he was familiarly known, was born in Lawrence, and was given the name of his uncle, Alfred C. A- fford, who was shot at the battle of Winchester in the Civil War. It is a coincidence that Freed and the uncle he was named for looked much alike, were near the same age at the time of their death and that both met death while leading their men in battle, both being shot in the forehead and both dying almost instantly. Fred was educated in the Lawrence public schools and the University, A. B '96, LL D. 97. For five years he drilled with the Usher Guards, becoming one of its most faithful and efficient members. While in the University, he also was busy with the younger boys of Lawrence, instructing them in military tactics and teaching them scout-lore. at the funeral of Lieutenant Alfred, April 18, 1899, a solemn and impressive ceremony held in Plymouth Congregational Church, which was appropriately decorated with the national colors, J. W. Gleed, of Topeka, paid a beautiful tribute to the dead in an elongent oration the closing paragraph symbolic of those who gave their lives in the World War as of "Leuctant Alford, the first to fall in that wonderful campaign of the Twentieth; died on the field of honor; died in the place of duty; died at the head of a valiant company; died in the service of his state and country; died with a stainless record, without fear and without reproach, a shining honor to his family, his school, his church, his city and his state; a glorious example to the young; an inspiration and a hope to all." CENTRE DOESN'T PLAY FOOTBALL ALL THE TIME It is natural, it seems for education to express some irritation when sports, particularly football, do for an institution of learning what the academic side so often fails to accomplish. It is only natural therefore, that a plan is on foot to curtail athletics at Centre College, which received so much publicity from its famous football teams of the last two seasons. Merle Crowell, in the American Magazine, puts it strikingly in these words: "With less than a hundred graduates through much of its life, Centre College has given to the country two vice-presidents of the United States, a Supreme Court justice, eight United States senators, thirty-seven Congressmen, ten governors, fifty-two state and federal circuit judges and twenty-six college presidents. Yet it was not until the football team flashed across the horizon like a flaming comet that the average person outside the immediate South had ever heard its name." Who said brains triumph over brawn? Kansan Krackles The man who wrote the advertisement, "Walk a Mile for a Camel," must have originally hailed from Lawrence. A 35-year-old widow in Boston, who will be married soon to her fifth husband, claims to have received more than fifty serious marriage proposals in the last twelve years. Few proposals really become serious until after the ceremony is performed, but then she certainly ought to know. The saxophone comes nearer imitating the human voice than any other instrument, which may account for the prejudice against it. A man tried to prove himself insane by testifying that "two and two is eight" m! that "thirteen and twenty is three." Any math professor on the Hill will prove to you that 2 equals one. Kansas enters men in Illinois relays, says a headline. And if they are gentlemen, they will win, says their toach. Wonder if the physical Ed. class at K. U, is any relation to Gym. Beware! Spring is coming. Make grades while the snow flies. In regard to the Pullman blankets supposed to have been taken on the febrakha trip, why not promise the pullman Company that we will return them all as soon as this cold nap is over? Plain Tales from the Hill The old order changeth, even for dogs. University education for a member of the canine species is not as casy as it used to be. The field is too crowded and competition too keen. Leading a dog's life at the University of Kansas is not all that it is cracked open. It is not all that a week, a thing most awesome and fearful to the fraternity dogs has come to the University. Survival of the Fittest Time was, when life for the K. U. canine was one pleasant round of playing social calls to the various organising groups in the classroom radiator. Every dwelling presented a front porch full of men, a was filling station for him. Ah, that was the golden age of learning in the dge of dog history. But now it has passed. Today it is different. Dogs have become the fetch of the Hill and their privileges are fast going. Now when the college canine treats confidently up to the front porch full of him he is confronted by a growing brute of his dogs and streets between organization houses have become Canine No Man's Land. But the sadder of all is the curtishment of the dog's class attendance. Some professor now refuse to enroll the respected animals in their classes, and even in those classes which dogs were taught to objection to their sleeping with the usual guito. It is reported that one faculty member recently took offense at the rhymic snoring of one aged beast, who visited his class and was lolled into slumber by the drowsy of a dog whose time have changed; that is admitted. But now to this thing dreaded by the dogs of the Hill! One organization has imported a huge beast which it claims is a dog; some who have taken it and are going to dispute this assertion. It has the proportions of a greyhound, but it is as if the bodies of three of those redundable rabbit-chasers had been stuffed into the skin of one. It is reported that jee is a one-man dog. It is reported that jee is a one-man dog. If they ever turn big loose, this will be a one-dog university. Student's Health Code -Parable of the Sower Up-to-Date 1. Behold the cougher went forth to cough. 2. And when he coughed, some germs fell upon the sidewalk and the feet of the pedestrians came and them up and carried them into their homes. 3. Some fell into nostrils that were hard and unfruitful, and forthwith a slight cold appeared. It was not worse because there was much opposition to them on account of the sterility of the soil. 4. And when the sun was up these colds were scotched, and because they had no root these colds withered away. 4. And some fell in thorny places, such as those that have an immunity, and in this way they were chocked out. 5. But others fell into good ground 6. and fought forth much disease; some a human, many a stalked and some threeffwd. 7. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear, and go forth to the health department and view the great harvest of pneumonia, tuberculosis, la gripe and bronchitis, all of which is of recourse to the position of the department. 10. Muffe the cough, another the sneeze and expectorate not in public places to the end that divers and greeders come not unto them, nor thy neighbor. father's in their faithful husbandines. 9. Be ye not of those who, having no knowledge, and who have nothing see not those things, which we have herein set forth that so nearly concern their temporal health and salvation. at the archway of the opera house. 8.

S. '13, was received here recently. The marriage occurred at the home of the bride's parents in Chiengo. The couple will be at home after March 15, at 7515 Sheridan Road, Chiengo. 11. And remember now the teaching of the health department that thy days may be long in this land. Mrs. E. J. Smith, formerly Gladya Nelson, A.B.'21, of Minneapolis, is visiting friends in Lawrence. Robert F. Mason, '21, is in San Diego, Cal., working for the Santa Fe Railroad as roadman on an engineer, squad. In a letter to Prof. C. Wagner, he says that a導建 his work and that the California climate. Student Opinion Complaints, not wide spread but nevertheless worthy of consideration are occasionally voiced against the administration concerning the negligence of this University in answering inquiries and questions. A particular instance is at hand. A prospective student wishing to find out something regarding the School of Medicine of this University sent a request for this desired information to the registrar's office. At the same time he sent a duplicate request to the registrar of the University of Illinois, and the professors answer was forthcoming from the Ann Arbor school within six days while it was three weeks before this University answered the request, and then it was merely to refer the individual to some other source. The Eastern team will be in Seattle the early part of June, on its way to Japan, where it will play a series of games with Japanese Universities. All Want advertisements are cash. e.h.
