Thayer, formerly of Kansas City, now a resident of Lawrence. The collection is partially provided for in exhibition rooms on the third floor in the center section of the Administration Building. The size and variety of the Collection which is ranked as one of the very finest in the country, renders appreciation of it impossible in a single short visit. Its educational value quite equals its entertaining qualities, for Mrs. Thayer who is herself in charge of the exhibit, lectures informally regarding the histories and values of the various pieces. The collection includes among other things, rugs, original paintings, hand-wrought bedspreads, tapestries, and many kinds of glass and china ware representing the work of foreign people. Free hours that for any reason may more conveniently spent on the campus, can not be filled with more profit anywhere than with this collection so kindly placed right at our hand through Mrs. Thayer's interest in the University of Kansas and her desire to further appreciation of art in the Middle west. THE STAR SHINES ON K. U. JOURNALISM Through the editorial columns of Saturday's issue, the Kansas City sent felicitations to the Kansas department of journalism. The good will and practical friendship of the Star have been of great assistance to the department and one of the largest sources of encouragement to the Kansan through the many years of its striving to become a creditable college newspaper. This expression of gratification at our new good fortune in at last winning an entire building of our own, is a vry pleasant renewal of support at the beginning of another school year, that the Kansan and the whole department of journalism sincerely appreciate. The Star's calling attention to the fact that our department, under the skilled guidance of Professor Flint, has reached a plane of efficiency compelling recognition, serves as a new spur to us as students to do our part toward a strong department meriting the continued confidence and prais of our metropolitan friend for when we are wishing a year more prosperous than it has yet enjoyed. SMILE-POWER Who can guage the power of smile? Science and modern knowledge have enabled men to measure the horsepower of an engine, the voltage of an electric current, and even the "kick" per centage of all beverages lawful or otherwise. But never has man been able to accurately gage the power of a smile given at the right place and at the right time. In truth its power is almost unmeasured. The opening days on the Hill see smiles in their gala attire. The friendly grin rises consciously or unconsciously with the handshake given the old timer or pal. At such times smiles have their power. But it is the smile which is given two months from now, to the same person that you greeted with a grin today, that scores the home-run and registers the deepest impression. The smile with the follow-through is the one that wins. consistency in smiling is the greatest producer of solid friendship that the world knows. One cannot smile consistently without being sincere. And all friendship is based on sincerity. What will the power-guage register on that smile of yours a month from now? The first time in the history of the country that any newspaper has entertained the President and Vice-president of the United States at dinner occurred as the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the founding of the University Commercial of which Russell R. Whittman, is president and publisher. Soaring Jayhawks THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN In addition to President Harding and Vice-president Coolidge, the entire cabinet, and "the most notable gathering of business men ever assembled on a single occasion," were brought together. Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes presided and the President and Vice-president and Secretary lover responded to toasts. Founded in 1795, following the signing of the first commercial treaty, Prices Current, forecasts the Competition newspaper in the United States exclusively devoted to business. Its readers now are the leading business men and executives in more than 60 cities throughout the United States. Mr. Whitman became owner of the New York Commercial in 1917. After being graduated from the University of Kansas in 1893, he was a reporter for the Kansas City Star and the Kansas City Journal. Later he was with the Hearest publications in Chicago and Boston. In 1914 he was prominent in the formation of the Audit Correlations and was a director of that organization he bought the Commercial. He is also publisher of the Standard Blue Book of Foreign Trade, Manual of Statistics and Stock Exchange Handbook, and the Board of Trustees of Roosevelt Military Academy at West Englewood, New Jersey. Plain Tales on the Hill And now if the Topoca Capital will try to be gentle with us, we will attempt to throw as tame a rush week as possible. Those of the brothers who spent the vacation months in the harvest fields can be seen making a break for the fourth table. They've forgotten how to hold their forks, and need a few weeks to acquire polish. Our Goolgeists are overlooking an unusual phenomena on Mount Oread. Each Fall when we get back to Lawrence the Fourthenth street hill is ten degrees steeper than it was when we left in the Spring. A little serious advice to Freshman: The first six weeks of the semester is a far better time to make grades than the last six weeks. Note to upperclassman suffering financial embarrassment; First-class, official-looking campus tickets for bullocks at Bullocks for two-bills a hundred. Funny how many "best bunch of rushee's on the Hill" there are. There have been a good many theories advanced as to just what the large red tank that is stalled in front of the Engineering building really is. We have been, and it is that it is the Sig Alph's new home-brew tank. Bka Massy, "Rup" Ruperthal, and Cap Garvin are arguing over the honor of having been the first to cut across the grass to the Kansan office. The writing of one's name so many times on the registration cards is meant to provide practice for the check writing that comes later. Alumni Notes Marian E.
