MAY REPLACE GUIDE
High School Students Visi K. U. and go Away Disappointed
Should the University of Kansas have a guide paid by the state to show visitors about the campus, and to explain to them the various collections and other features of University work. Students should be Foster, registrar, by a representative of the Kansan, who learned indirectly of the visit of forty-eight high school students from Winchester, who came to the University last week and re-connected home, without being able to learn anything about the state University.
When asked about the possibilities of obtaining a guide, Mr Foster said: "Ten or fifteen years ago there was a service of that kind rendered by a man who served as a combination guide and mail-man, but it was discontinued because of lack of funds. I would like to see some elderly man, preferably an ox-soldier, who takes over the University, hired to do nothing other than visit the campus. He could be paid a number of salary. However, this is a matter for the Board of Administration to handle."
About forty-eight students from Winchester high school accompanied by their teacher, Miss Barnes, spent last Wednesday afternoon "seeing K. S. T.," and showed them the various exhibits on the Hill, so they were at a loss to where to go. They visited Dyche Museum, but were unable to find anyone to explain the display to them. By chance they wandered into the department of history at Thexer, who chanced to be there, showed the collection to them.

Parliament Questioned as to Advisability of Delay
Delay

Superintendents Seek Teachers
Corduroys Threaten To Bench Prolitee
It seems that the modest corduray is to play a large part in bringing the profiteer to time. The high school instructors at Stockton, California, have domed the "cordis" as a means of combating the high cost of other materials. The senior men of Leland Stanford have adorned their appendages with cream colored corduray "breeches" not so much with the thought of economy as of dislusion. If $10 and $15 a day plumber and
o $ and o $ and planners also brick work wearing overalls it stains to reason that poorly paid pedagogy an at least descent to "cords".
The conclusion is naturally drawn that the peckers of typewriters wished to economize when they decided to wear "cords." As a matter of fact it was with the thought of individuality and distinction that the journalists in this book want to plan to wear corduroy they will look elsewhere for some distinctive mark.
Plain Tales From The Hill
"What is the difference between oriental and occidental civilization," asked the professor.
"You made a mistake didn't you—shouldn't that be accidental," replied the student.
Prof. W. R. Smith at the 8:00 o'clock Rural Sociology class Thursday: "Let me give you a few personal incidents about me, and then I'll give you some facts."
Professor MacMurray said to his class in Extremple 1, "You are supposed to give criticisms on the various speeches given. Maybe," he added, "they are like some of mine, you can't remember before you have written them down."

CAMPAIGN FOR BONDS
Enlargement of Bell Memorial Hospital Depends on Rose-dale Vote

Students Should Learn to Think Says Charles B. Seger of U. S. Rubber Co.
Same Rules in All Lines
Principles of Merchandising Essential to Men in All Kinds of Business
In a letter to the University Vocational Committee asking what he considers the personal and educational qualifications most requisite for employment, of the B.Seger, president of the United States Rubber Company, says, "An experience covering more than one line of endeavor has convinced me that the same principles of merchandising organization, administration, and training are used in our applied regardless of the commodities or services manufactured and sold."
Mr. Seager thinks a college or university should teach its students to think, to write and speak correctly, to do their part socially, and to develop themselves physically, so as to be able to withstand the requirement of a modern business life. In addition, he has taught him that he thinks intensive training in economics and basic business facts should be given.
Concerning the four great fields of business activity, selling, finance, and merchandising, Mr. Seyer says that business school too little considered by college field is for man who is not afraid of soiled hands and overalls and who likes manual and mechanical processes; and that selling is for the man of acupuncture, well and express himself and who thrives on the stimulus of competition.
"Financing," he continues, "is for the man of analytical mind who can master detail, who will take the trouble to master the science of accounting, and who has the imagination to analyze reports and to see relations of figures and technique to broad business policy."
Merchandising, the work of wholesale and retail stores, he says, is for the born trader, the young man with vision, with liking for contact with students with studious ability to acquire familiarity with many lines of merchandise.
As to choice of occupation, Mr. Sager says, "There are very few young men and women who end their business careers in the same industry in which they began. In my opinion it is far more important for a young man to become a business career to select careful, kind work he wants to do rather than the particular industry in which he is to do that work."
HOOVER RAPS POLITICS
Early Ratification Urged as Best Treaty So-
Baltimore, Feb 23—Herbert Hower, speaker at John Hopkins University today, called upon the Senate to ratify a resolution calling for a face of mild reservations' proposals.
"It appears to many that the most practical hope of immediate ratification lies in the lesser reservationists" and "the more reservationists," said Mr. Hoover. "For my part of the league cannot prove its value by proposals of mild reservation it will never prove them unproposed of lesser reservationists."
In addition to speaking for treaty ratification, However called attention to necessity for immediate raises in salary of teachers and professors.
Hoover declared against injecting the treaty in the coming campaign and pointed out that the American government, it must be worked cut yet. There are many who believe this country should stay out of purely European affairs he said. Hoover launched into the treatment of treaty in the coming election.
"There seems to be a notion that an advantage could be gained in a presidential election upon a minor difference on the reservations" he said.
