UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Wilson Has Occupied Museum Since 1912
The smiling countenance of President Woodrow Wilson 'is beaming down on K. U, these days. No one knows just when he came to us. A student loltering in the Museum recently discovered that K. U._has a great stone face, as clearly defined as the face which was so important in Hawthorne's story. When the assistant curator of the museum was called to see the face he discovered it had the_features of the president. The Museum was built in 1902 and the accidental arrangement of the face was never discovered in all these years.
If you wish to see the face go to the natural history display room, follow the crack mark in the concrete floor north until you face the glass partition. Look up the left, and you will see the reflection of the rocks in the pier that holds up the steel supports to the roof, giving a perfect representation of the features of Woodrow Wilson.
The peculiarly Wilson jaw, the high cheek bones, and the large nose are all there. The dark red color of the rocks gives the tan color of the complexion. The characteristic smile which has won the hearts of the American people during-the-trying times since the war started in 1914 is there, too. The presence of this face will strengthen the feeling of patriotism on the Hill.

Dig. Prof. Startles Chummy Star Gazers
The "comfy" porch swing swayed gently in the balmy evening air. Fair Damsel, eager for adventure; Fair Hero, who just could not enjoy the wonderful moonlight alone; and Fair Damsel's Roommate were silent under the spell of the night.
Across a space of lawn, in the home of Dignified Professor there were signs of mysterious merriment. Automobiles were clustered about the driveway. From behind the closed blinds came laughter and song.
Fair Damsel and her friends whispered speculations as to the cause of the festivities. Was Professor having a party? In mid-week?
From the house of mih came more confusion. Voices could be heard in jelly chatter. The music became louder. Then, audently, the door opened, and Dignified Professor himself slipped softly upon the porch. "He peered questioningly into the night, this way and that, then proscaching the porch pill into his up sign of a some sort and as quickly disappeared within the house. "What can it be?" whispered Fair Hair.
"I'll see," said Fair Damsel's Roommate.
"What do you suppose is up?" eoebed Fdamsel.
Silently she glided across the lawn until she stood before the placard. An exclamation of wonder almost escaped her, but she compressed her lips.
"I Have Found the most Cunning Little Creation—"
Middinary Letter
says Betsy Drew.
THIS warm Spring weather has given me the spring hat fever,
THIS warm Spring weather ha
given me the spring hat fever,
so this afternoon I went down town
keen to find an Easter Bonnet.
And I have found the most cunning little creation you ever could imagine.
It is a jaunty little shape of black straw with two little lacquered wings laid flat on the top of the crown. Perhaps so much dark sounds dull (the milliners all tell me that black is "the proper thing" this Spring) but a little bit of bright green ribbon gives just that adorable touch which adds life to the whole creation.
There were so many other Spring hats where I got mine that I had a hard time choosing, but I am tickled to death with my selection. I know that you will be too if you go to Mrs. Patterson's—the first door south of Wiedie's.
Sincerely yours,
Safely back in the porch swing she made her report:
"It's the ice card!"
