THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
New Chancellor Lauded For Work as Educator
(Continued from page 7)
Bryan, a friend in whom he had full confidence. Many prominent educators, appreciating his exceptional administrative work, had urged him to go. So he entered the larger field.
The record of his three years there will remain a brilliant chapter in the history of the state. "The situation was not an easy one when he came," writes the president of the Federation of Women's Clubs. "In fact it was so tangled a less tactful man would have made a mess of its life." He was being of the institution. President Lindley ignored politics, went straight ahead with the business of running the university—and politics ceased to bother.
LIKES TO TALK WITH PEOPLE
The people of Idaho found President Lindley human and democratic. "How do I get my recreation? Mostly by talking with people," he said to a friend. He showcased the same item that another man feels for the links or the theater, or the fishing places in vacation time. His colleagues soon felt the contagion of his enthusiasm. They learned to depend absolutely on his sympathetic consideration of matters affecting their work or themselves. Quick to praise good work was just as frank in pointing out faults in either. Shrewd in solving difficulties, firm establishing sound principles, always free from ostention, and always acted by a fine spiritual nature. "We pledge to him our earnest endeavor to maintain the University of Idaho upward," he proudly told them have been its one-time president," was the farewell message from the faculty.
APPECIATES STUDENT IDEALS
The students soon found that he appreciated student attitudes and ideals. He was not a power affair off his own back, but he had an admired and a trusted leader. His sense of humor warmed them and his readiness with illustrations and anecdote whet their interest when he spoke to them all together at the assemblies. His personal interest and sincerity won their confidence and affection which they met in college and were casually at the campus or the athletic field.
Summarized in few words, President Lindley's achievements at Idaho includes the addition to the university of a school of mines and a school of forestry; development of extension work through methods in organization that have been copied by many western institutions; the income of the university from direct research; the enrollment in saxy per cent; the vital all of, the university firmly established in the affections of the people of the state. As one educator phrased it, "He 'left for his successor a spendeli running machine".
No wonder that the Kansas Board of Administration, in its country-wide search for a successor to Chancellor Frank Strong, kept hearing interesting things about the man in Idaho. "Pronounced success in the Northwest. A scholar and gentleman." way President Washington, palate of the University of Washington, expressed "Sabarlyly, able, a good man in general," said President G. Stanley Hall of Clark University. "All right in every particular—wise, shrewd, genial, straightforward, unselfish, courageous. Has a sense of humor and a love of his fellow men that help him through any difficult situation," wrote President William T. Foster, of Reed College. "Of unwintering and honor," said President W. L. Bryan. And so on indicted. "Kansas will be lucky to get it" was the substance of all the messages.

FROM PRESIDENT TO CHANCLOR So, in spite of an attractive invitation to enter a large industrial organization, attesting his standing among men of business, President Lindley became Chairman and believes, because he was a man of belief, that there is a good building to be done in University and the state and the Middle West. Kansas does not know him yet, but his welcome from many friends of the University, alumni, faculty, and students, has been cordial. Everybody's expectations are high. Before many months, Kansas *will wake up to the worth while, a man builder of worth while, a man of faith and indeftable industry, has been added to her human assets.* "A modern university is an indispensible organ of the world's work," declares the man of many vital

contact, "an idealizing factor, a force for elevating a job to the level of an art or a profession. It must go beyond the old idea that its function is to train for the arts of leisure and realize that it is also to train for the arts of work. It exists to idealize all the work of the world."
"I predict a great future for Kansas under his administration," says President Jessun.
In seeking to understand a man, there is no more direct approach than to find out what are his admirations—the persons whose influence he gratefully acknowledges. Dr. Lindley seldom makes an address without going for illustrations to the life of Lincoln. The impression of Lincoln is in his soul. I thought, "he" could be幽默ly, "the fortunate illness that afforded me an unbroken reading of Charmwood's Life of Lincoln."

Chancellor Lindley's family consists of Lars Lindley and two boys "One of the boys was not sure that he could turtle himself away from Idaho," his father relates, "until an old K. U. Grad in Moscow told him about the big school on Mt. Oread and the football team, then gave him a sample of the famous Rock Chalk. Then he decided that he would come."

The garage stood in the heart of the city. That was not strange. A great many garages stand in the heart of a great many cities. What was strange was the builder, which stood oppose the path. This was a tumultuous building elfice, with cars and rambling back and front yard, and in the yards were old carriages.
I do not know if it was a junk shop or a repair shop. I do know that nowhere else could one see so many equipages of an ancient day. One might sit in one of Ford—or in one's Rolle-Royce—and buy gasoline and oil, and oil, and gasoline containers were being laughed away one might be sitting at leisure that mottled old-fashioned crew huddled out in the yards.
There is a buggy—the kind of a buggy that wheels softly down country lanes in the moonlight, and stops easily as the driver nights to leap down the bars. There is a buggy on a bright, smart, high-tiled, yellow dog cart, used to sowling down the fashionable avenue in the fashionable hour. The hayrick—its bright blue worn by now—carried many a wholesome brigantray hay in its day, with bare-cream sprawling on the top of the load.
Look at yonder queer old contrapartition! It was a shoe wagon, and the shoe dealer plodded along the rural road. Onegyer one feet with feet trouble at all.
no trouble at all.
That decapit vehicle was a hanson cam bob and a very bumpy one, too, in its day—quite a novelty in the community no doubt, when it made its first appearance. Now it stands
cheek by jowl with a three-wheeled dump cart, whose social station was never anything but low.
What a queer old crowd they are—these outworn, outgrown vehicles of another day. They give up their iron and bolts to the jungnick man quite willingly, for the sake of them along their wide rows. No—another new swifer method of transportation has come in—and the old wagons in the old yard tremble a little as a huge motor truck roars victoriously. But it is only that they have waited so long, standing there in all weathers, on three wheels or two, with one shaft off and their paint in disrepair. They tremble a little, but wait mostly until they move and when they away into oblivion.
NEW STUDENTS LEARN K.U. YELLS AND SONGS
Heard Talks by Dean Brandt,
Dr. Corbin, Capt. Burdick,
and Winsor
Yells and songs of the University of Kansas featured the freshmen convocation in Fraser Chapel yesterday afternoon. Sandy Winsor was there and the full force of freshmen tried their lungs out with Winsor leading them. Prof. W. B. Downing led the singing during the meeting.
Dean J. G. Brandt read a letter from Chancellor E. H. Lindley. "Be sure to be on time to enroll, to attend class daily, and to make special friends with teachers," were some of the things that Dean Brandt said.
Dr. Alberta Corbin, dean of women, made a short talk to the new students. "Co-operation between faculty and students in the class room is absolutely necessary to make the better and more real among the students of the country," said Dean Corbin. Dr. Corbin said intellectual honesty and frankness between instructor and pupil was the true honor system. "Each student is an individual not a 'member of the group.' She urged each freshman to affiliate with the department organizations and all of the department heads he could get into.
Riffle and pistol shoting for women was the proposition offered to the first year women, by Captain H. D. Burdick in his address, Captain Bardick in his address, and Captain explainer C. of the new students also.
Sandy Winsor, cheerleader, said that the "thundering thousand" of 1916 and 1917 must come back. He offered the women of the first year class, the opportunity to "thunder just as much as then."
Fearl Sparing Sterling, c16, and Allen Sterling, c16, are visiting at the home of their parents, Prof. and Mrs. M, W. Sterling, to Los Angeles to attend an convention to Los Angeles, and will continue their trip within a few days.
Ancient and Antique Art of "Rushing" Again Adds Spice to Freshman Life
When youths with their hair freshly cut and brilliantized are seen racing madly over the various roadways of the city of Lawrence in their fathers' motor cars, when the renowned "nickle nurser" of every fraternity is letting his money flow in buying "cokes" and "smokes" for the guleless freshmen, then it is time to announce to the wondering world that "rush week" has started.
For weeks past the high school, graduate has had it dummed into his canalflowers that Alfaalfa Belta, having possessed the majority of congressman and senator, is the "one and only" Greek letter organization which should be registered in the U. S. patent office. Thus it is that upon
When young and beautiful women have, consulted with hair dressers and dermatologists in a successful effort to become more beautiful, and when the "itemized statement" sent home to dad includes items by which the soft drink parlors have prospered, it is again possible to let it be known throughout the land that "rush week" has started.
arriving in the city, he is surprised that the Pie Delighta congregation even is in existence. However, when the Pie Delighta orators convince him that every Alfalfa Delta has been repatriated to their former lands are bed nightly and in abundance, he becomes bewildered. It is therefore an easy undertaking for the Washa Dishes to step in and claim the privilege of depositing a plodge button on the lapel of his president, President of this great nation once slept in a house that a Washa Dish afterwards visited.
“Rush week” is made possible only by the desire of the brethren and sisters to *dodge sleep during an entire seven days*. Last spring, when hundreds of letters were sent out to prospective victims, it was not anticipated that the “dates” made so complaekely would react into the boomerang wretch privacy, Morpheus, and pocketbooks.

Chancellor Strong explained at the time the increases in fees were announced that the new schedule represented a considerable increase in attendance and the increase in attendance, which made the University
"Last year's increases in enrollment required additional teachers and made it necessary to add $20,000 to the budget." Dr. Strong said at the time, "and next year we'll have another $20,000 to the budget, and the only way by which this can be raised is from an increase in fees."

Losses under it will be paid promptly and in full without discount.
It is a necessity to travelers, vacationists, students at colleges and boarding schools, and to teachers. When the small cost is considered any one who contemplates traveling even on short trips cannot afford to be without a policy which covers personal property (excluding freight shipments) against loss or damage by Fire, Lightning, Theft and Transportation Hazards.
