THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Early Settlers Is Feature of New Book
Miss Margaret Lynn of the department of English has just finished a new book entitled "Free Soil" which will be published by Millan the latter part of the month.
Few of us realize the great importance of the play part played by the settlers of Lawrence in deciding whether Kansas should be a free or slave state. Miss Lynn did realize this and saw the tragedy and romance of the lives of the pioneers, so she played the role her story. Many of the characters are drawn from history while others are fictitious. One of the real characters is Governor Robinson, one of the most heroic figures of the period. The first Robinson home at 13th and Louisiana streets was burned in the raid. There is a marble slab on the spot where it stood. Another is Eli Thayer, a relative of Mrs. Thayer of Lawrence. Was she murdered throughout the east urging the people to leave their homes for Kansas. One of the speeches Miss Lynn quotes in the first chapter of the book.
The story deals principally with John and Ellen Truman who left their New England home where their ancestors had lived for generations and came to Kansas that they might vote for the abolition of slavery from Kansas. Their sacrifices and trials are depicted vividly.
Much local color is added by the fact that Miss Lynn has written her book on the very scene of all these happenings. The books she hands out wonderfully. They all升上 upon their sacrifices as Ellen Truman did when she said to her husband, "It is going to be like a creation and an adventure." She has a crusade and a honeymoon. How can a thing like slavery stand out against it?"
Dr. J. John N. VanDerVries, a former student and professor in the University of Kansas, visited at the Alba Tau Omega house Monday evening. He will return to Lawrence for the game Saturday.
Hygiene Class Makes A Visit to Loose-Wiles
The class in Hygiene 52 visited the Loose-Wiles factory at Kansas City, Saturday. They were met by representatives of the National Safety Council of Kansas City, who took them in care to the plant. Mr. Thomas went to the company, showed the class through the entire plant. The inspection was made to find out the hygienic conditions and what methods are used to keep the factory sanitary. Both the sanitation and care that the company provides to its employees, was found to be good, according to members of the class.
This course is a new one offered to help students get a practical knowl of hygienic relations and the best methods of sanitation. Other trips will be taken during the semester, and an inspection of the sanitary conditions in Lawrence will probably be made.

What is the most forsaken, deserted, and abandoned spot on the HH? Some wag might suggest the Law Library, or Fraser Hall during a Fine Arts recital. But the most forlorn place in the mind of the "old timer", is the K. U. hitching-rack.
Old Time Hitchrack Replaced by "Hoopie"
A short generation ago, when some school entertainment brought throngs of students and their friends and relatives flocking to the Hill, the old hitch-rack was the mostcompeted spot on the Campus. When the family froze in the "Follies," and when the "Follies," if indeed the "Follies" were known at that day), father tied the reins to the dash, hitched Ned and Nig to the rack, and then helped ma and the girls out of the survey. When John took his date to the Junior Prom, he attended a concert in his new red-wheeled, rubber-tired buggy, and made straight for the hitching-rack.
And now the deserted rack stands silent and alone, with grass beginning to obscure the trampolined area where once the impatient horses ran wild, but now they motor cars flash by along the avenue, or the "hopie" comes chugging
along. Occasionally a soaring flyer passes about the hill, and floats away out of sight.
Ahokus Are Assigned To Tutor Football Men
The Ahoku Society held its regular meeting at 4:30 o'clock Monday in Green Hall. Various members were assigned to tutor the football players. They also were given to give help in Chemistry and Mathematics were the greatest demand.
The name of this society means, "Athletic Helpers of K. U." It is made up of twenty men from the different schools on the hill. Each member is responsible for six football men. He looks after their grades and when they are sick he joins them and subject to the society. A member who has specialized in this subject is assigned to tutor the football man.
The football man receive the same help as if they were paying one dollar an hour for it.
