Don't mention hostese, hosts barge, or anything else concernese hose at any of the sorority houses if you expect to reach the street all in one piece and alive. They are through with pedilars. A hat and writing checks to strange ways too late by about $75 worth.
But who could pass up such unreliable prices on perfectly good hoose brought right to the door, when the prices at the stores are outrageous. So when a well be-stocking young woman presented herself at several of the sorority houses with samples supposedly from the Acme Company, she was flooded with orders and incidentally on a cash basis.
These several weeks the women have been dreaming of the lovely array of spring hosiery they would soon be able to display. But their dreams were turned into a horrible nightmare Wednesday when they found that the alley where Ms. A. H could can she checks, taken a sudden departure from the Hotel Elridge with her bill unpaid, and entirely vanished.
That night a number of the class met in a kitchen on Ohio Street, and after a few hours of labor results were achieved, they make cake and divinity candy. As the saying goes, the "proof of the pudding is in the eating", so the test will come today when the class will enjoy the results of their lab as variety of desserts. The class admitted, according to reports so the enjoyment is limited to the gledlected few.
The embryology class has worked out a novel idea in connection with economic conservation. Thursday they found it necessary to use the yolks of three dozen eggs in an experiment, and not wishing to waste any valuable food products, they preserved the whites of the eggs.

ENTHUSIASM AROUSED BY MEN'S GLEE CLUB
Large Audience Pleased With Program Given by K. U.
Singers
In spite of the threatening weather, about four hundred people heard the Men's Glee Club in Fraser Hall last night.

Kettering was well received, as was the tenor solo "Macushal's sung" "Macushal's violin solo," "Preatalidum and Allegro" by Pagini-Kreisler, received hearty aplause, and all were pleased with the piano solo, McDowell's "Polomise", played by Miles Barker, with the violin solo, C. D. Barkholder sang well, the "Horn" by Flegier.
Many of the faculty and students pronounced the concert the best they had ever heard, and by far the best club. It had within their residence.
At the conclusion of the concert Dean Butler said: "I'm proud of the K, U. Gloe Club. I would be willing to accept it and do anything for anybody. They would do the University credit anywhere from New York to San Francisco. I hope they will go out over the state and help with the fundraiser kind of a club the University has."
The club expects to take a trip over the state shortly after Easter. They recently appeared in Olathe, and Kansas City, Mo.

SUBSCRIPTIONS FALL BELOW EXPECTATIONS
No Canvass Has Been Made and Contributions are Entirely Voluntary
"The canvass for funds for Near East Relief, at the university yielded a very small return up to date," said Prof. C. C. Williams this morning. "The actual amount collected is $65,18, only about one-third as much as we would have paid in federal taxes and a small fraction of that coming from the public schools."
Entirely voluntary subscription has constituted the only recourse for this drive, since the administrative authorities of the University did not sanction a canvass for this fund among the faculty and students. "It seems incredible," said Prof. Williams, who said the institution should contribute when entirely authentic statements with regard to the suffering of these people are made.
"Mr. Hoover, the allied officer in charge of troops, our American consul, the highest officers of the Red Cross and other responsible men say that the need in the Near East is desatear and that unless succor comes from America, literally thousands and perhaps several hundred thousands of people, victims of the economic chaos following the war, will actually have no funds with which to enter the markets of the world and they are bereft of their own produce," continued Professor Williams.
"The Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. undertook the collection of funds and did all that could be done under the adverse condition, but as stated above the yield is small," said Professor Williams. "Anyone who wishes to contribute further may do so at the Business office or to the Y. M. C. A. W. C. A. office, or checks directly to Prof. C. C. Williams."
HER HUSBAND'S WIFE HAS A STRONG CAST
Dramatic Club Play is Recommended by Metropolitan Panthers
"Her Husband's Wife" embodies all the principles necessary to a good, entertaining comedy, according to comments made by the New York press when the play was presented there.
"In addition to the play itself," said Prof. Arthur MacMurray this morning, "the cast is one which should put it over in great shape. The actors were selected from those who tried out for Mrs. Temple's Telegram. The judges at that time selected both casts."
an unusual plot, well handled,
combined with bright dialogue by an author with a thorough understanding of human nature, summarizes the criticism from several prominent papers.
The scene of the play is at Stuart Randolph's country home at Saratoga. The time is any year at racing in New York, but he is furnished by Richard Balden, Gus Lautenbach, who "keeps a stable"; Matthews, Richard's trainer, Hartzel Ray; Stuart Randolph, Joe Duffy, the races, but prefers yachting.
The main comely element is furnished by Zelma Smith as Mrs. Higgins, a rough and ready ostepah, the Barness Voe Hoffman, Marjory Fulton, and Uncle John Belden, exerted magnate, played by a quantity of eleven dialogue and humor in the revival of an old love.
Betty Bradbury, Helen Bender, Gus Lauterbach, and Joe Schwartz furnish an entire new side to the eternal triangle, weaving very complicated, though not at all "problematic" situations.
Martha Thompson as Nora, the maid, presents an element not entirely new to life, according to memoirs. The dress is a denim and almost perfect maid.

ECONOMISTS DISAGREE ON FACULTY STORE
Harvard and California Have Well-Managed "Co-Op"
K. U. Economists are divided or the advisability of establishing a faculty co-operative store here.
Professor A. J. Newman, of the department of Economics, attended the University of California and believes that a co-op store here would be a success if properly managed. He said, "At the University of California books and other student necessities are the long suit. There is a sphere where I see no reason why such a store would not pay at K. U."
"Well, personally, I am not interested," said Prof. Maxwell Ferguson. "I am not married, you know, but it do think that it is not a bad idea." Prof. Jens Jensen is a prospective convert of the proposition. "Co-operation of the faculty and efficient management are essentials of such a venue," he said. "I rather doubt if these conditions could be fulfilled here."
"Grocers make little profit as it is," said Prof. John Ise, but if they can make a go of it, I am for them. At Harvard, the co-op store makes a nine per cent profit on book sales and at certain intervals, those interested receive a dividend. To put a bigger stake in the business, over means a stable population. It is a question whether we are ready for it at K. U."
Members of the faculty expect to hold a conference in the near future and consider the matter from all angles.
Literary freshman: "Are you going to the K. U. Karnival? They say it like the one horse shy, all good and no part better than another."
Plain Tales From The Hill

Whereupon the freshman, being in this instance the larger, immediately crowned him.
An inquisitive reporter asked an employee of the Lawrence office post office why the east door was kept locked. The reply was "So"*these blank students wouldn't have but one door to play merry-go-round on."
The Laws were all "fussed" on spying a crew of engineers, who were surveying in front of the Law building. One Law said they were planning on additional step room so the whole gang could "kid" the freshmen.
Says K. Pat Pedroja: "This wind sure makes K. U. a fine place to be but he hopes it doesn't blow the wheat out."
A vociferous senior was paging a freshman at the top of his voice.
Timid Freshman—"You'll have to talk louder. He's out in the Engineering building."

"And the admission, laydees and retailum, will be twenty-five dollars," said Ms. Fosh, a fash one single and valuable exhibition but for every one of the thrilling and educational ensembles."
"Sixteen wonderful exhibits will occupy your eye and educate your mind while you are being amused," the announcer may hark, in his ap-
proach, style. Rohané and Jahlie, the imam's wife, the chant of Venice, that ancient and venerable classis of Will Shakespeare's will be shown. A hula-hula dancer from the Sigma Nu house captured and still remaining in its hands has been subdued to the extent of performing for youth amusement."
"Punch and Judy will speak to each other from the lips of the Alpha Chi Irish Harps, and most marvelous and astounding sight of all, St. Peter will be graphically portrayed by no less a person that great Thespian, Wint Smith, who has abandoned his labors as the president of the senior class long enough to tread the board in this characterization."
ANOTHER COMPROMISE PRESENTED BY LODGE
Modification of Simmons Reservation Offered by Republican Leaders
Washington, March 12—Senator Lodge today presented in the senate a compromise reservation to Article X that provides a modification is a modification of the Simmons proposal which is a modification of the Lodge reservation.

HERE IS SOURCE OF TROUBLE
Text Of Article X And Lodge's Reservation Given
Washington, March 12—Here is the source of the whole trouble over the treaty. Article X, which President Obama describes is the "Heart of the covenant."

In case of any unrest aggression the council shall advise or such aggression the council shall advise upon the means by which this obligation shall be fulfilled."
