UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Former K. U. Instructor Meets Pupil in France
The battlefields of France even afford places for the renewal of acquaintances formed at K. U. The following clipping from last Sun's publication of the meeting of two people once prominent at the University:
By the Way一
Dorothy Canfield Fisher had breakfast the other day in Paris with a man who had been her instructor in mathematics in Lawrence, Kas., when she was 15 years old. That man is now General John J. Pershing. When her father was president of the University of Kansas, General Pershing, then a professor at the Arkansas war college. The president's daughter entered his classes in mathematics, and a friendship started then which was renewed in Paris under the circumstances of which neither of them could have dreamt. Mrs. Fisher is one of the busiest women in France. She has taken over the work for the blind which Winifred Holt originally organized. She is organizing a printing company and a museum books for the soldiers blinded in battle will be printed. Her latest book, "Understood Betsy," (Holt), was tried out on her own little daughter, whose name is Sally. And Sally's comment was: "At last mother has written a really good book."
There is a rumor to the effect that all men of the University will be compelled to take military training every day from four until six o'clock; as a consequence Don Davis is worrying considerably for fear that the women will not be compelled to knit or make bed-sox for two hours.

Pi, Noted Character Consents to Interview
Yes, my name is Pi, and I am the most famous dog in Kansas. I was born in Ellsworth June 1, 1913, and came to the University the next September. I was only three months old but I was pledged to Pi Upsilon the day I arrived.
Yes, I enrolled as a freshman that year and have been here every year since. In addition I have attended three summer Sessions. Vacations? Well, you see I never have had but one. That was a year or two ago when I spent the summer at Mt. Washington, Mo.
I graduated from the College this spring and intend to enter the School of Law next fall. I'm just attending the Summer Session to pile up a few extra credits.
ACTIVITIES FIRST, WORK LAST
Me a grind? Oh, no. I'm nothing like that.
You see I always plan my work so as to be able to take part in all University activities. School work should never be allowed to interfere in any way with the social life.
Yes, I'm acquainted with nearly everybody in the University, except the Medics. I hate those fellows and stay away from them. They are apt to chloroform a fellow and cut him all to pieces.
I have enjoyed my University life
immensely, and in addition to being
the youngest graduate in the history
of the school, I suppose that, next to
the Chancellor, I am the most noted
character on the Hill. At least I have
BITTER GOES WITH THE SWEET
But I tell you I've had a pretty tough time of it since the Pi U house burned last winter. They haven't run a table there since that and I have boarded around at about every club in town. I get pretty hungry sometimes, and once I even had to catch a rabbit to keep from starving. Just see how poor I'm getting.
had my name in the Kansan oftener than anyone else.
Yes, 'I have my own views on religion and politics, but I don't care to be quoted on either subject. I attend church once in a while, but I am not bound by any sectarian doctrines. As for politics I believe that times of national crisis are not times for partnership, and further than that I have nothing to say.
No, I'm not a pacifist. If you think I am just ask the Pi Kappa Alphas or the Sigma Kappas. I killed the Pi K. A. bull dog last winter because he dug up a bone I had buried, and that's all not either—the Sigma Kappa dog called me a slacker for not enlisting, and I chewed him up until his friends didn't recognize him. He's not here any more.
Yes, it will be all right to print anything I have told you, but please don't mention my name. I have been getting too much publicity here lately.

The first is that you can prevent the air which may be too dry for perfect health; and, if you should want something to eat between meals, pluck a healthful prune from the pan on the radiator.
