AMERICAN COLLEGES SEEKING PRESIDENTS
Many Higher Educational Institutions in Need of Heads
'The almost universal movement of readjustment of education in the universities and colleges is the chief cause for the resignation of such a large number of the presidents of educational institutions,' states Dean F. J. Kelly, head of the School of Education at University of Kansas. 'I know that in the case of Cornell, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Yale the men who have given up their positions have done so because they feel that a new cycle of development in universities was sure to come and that more energetic and up-to-date men were needed. In practically every college whose prized academic achievement has active service for an average fifteen years.'
"Approximately twenty of the larger colleges and universities of this country have been left without any faculty, and we have been fortunate enough to have obtained a new head by this time and are ready to start in the new development which is swiftly bearing fruit. We will be one of our institutions of learning."
"I know that the vacant places in California, Minnesota and Michigan have been filled laterly," says F. W. Blackmar, Dean of the Graduate School but as for the other places over the country I may had no report."

How far do you dance in one year? The average dance lasts for fifteen minutes which if you travel at an average rate of speed would take you around the Gym about four times which would be about a quarter of a mile. With eight dances to an evening you go two miles. Two dances to an afternoon you go five miles. There are 72 Friday and Saturday nights in a school year making 288 miles that a student dances in a year. This of course is the smallest that can be danced, if you dance on a dime like some of the slow moving brothers you don't go half as far while on the other side you move swiftly like some of our University lights you'd go twice as far.
