WAR MAKES FREEDOM FOR WOMEN POSSIBLE
Shortage of Men Will Give Economic Independence to Other Sex
"War is going to give women a chance to fill executive and administrative positions in business. It is going to put them, in the matter of wages, on a level with men. It is going to advance them in the professions, and it is going to make them more and more economically independent. Individually, this will affect the home life by the nation by making women independent of economic necessity, which will raise the standard of life."
"Women will make good in these new places," said Professor Elmer, "and the conditions brought about by this will, because of this, continue after its close."
Those were the salient points emphasized by M. C. Elmer, professor of sociology in the University of Kansas, and Dennis E. Browne, the Woman's Forum of the University.
Short-Belt
Announcement has been made of the marriage of Miss Helen Short, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Short, of Leavenworth, to Mr. Edison Belt, of Schenectady, N. Y., last week at the home of the bride's parents.
Professor Elmer gave statistics showing that women's wages compare very unfavorably with the wages of men for similar work. He said the proportion of wage earning women who support others is as large as the proportion of wage earning men who have others dependent upon them.
BY THE WAY
Mrs. Bell graduated from the University of Westminster and was a member of Westminster College.
Mr. Belt graduated from the School of Engineering in 1913 and is a member of Sigma Xi.
Mr. and Mrs. Belt left for a trip to Chicago, Niagara Falls, and New York. They arrived at home on June 22, at 322 Glenwood Boulevard, Schedynet, N.Y.

Book Reviews
REGIMENT OF WOMEN. By Clemence Dane. Reviewed by Engg. Robert H. Brace.
Winton on the border of Kansas.
It takes some time to discover that this long, careful no-nonsense a tract of education. The tactile element is skillfully concealed for the first part of the story; but towards the end the dry bones appear, with resultant damage to the interest. The scene is易懂, the strange guide, so that she is hardly recognizable to some of her old acquaintances.
The larger part of the volume is occupied with an account of a girl's school. And no one could question for an instant that the writer of the book knows this life in its miniatime. One of the teachers, a vampirish person of quite uncanny charms, cries over her pupils' worthless fascination results in many cases. No reader of the book will soon forget the elfish figure of little motherless Louise, forced by the sunlight of Miss Hartibl's approval to strain every nerve for tempting school prizes, only to disgust her idol by too evident devotion, only to receive the rebuffa that—kills. The story reaches here its greatest emotional height. The interest is distinctly less—and the skill shown likewise—the taste and tactile young and beautiful charming new teacher, sight in Clare's toils and extracting herself with difficulty, to flee, literally, to a marvelously eligible, if somewhat unconvincing lover.
The workmanship is honest, the tone earnest, and the general conclusion sound. Yet one feels that there is a considerable element of special pleading. A Clare Handy essay anywhere, in circumstances, any educational system, a dangerous and disturbing force.—Macmillan, New York.

Poor cub: Who'll I see up there?
News ed: Oh, Cicero, Demosthenes,
or somebody.
So the poor cub went up to the classical museum and interviewed Cicero. The old statesman was feeling fine, perched upon a shelf overlooking his classical friends. "Oh, yes," he said, "we are happy over here, although the visits of you moderns are exceedingly rare; at least, the classical atmosphere is not contaminated."
And Cicero is in good company. There is Virgil at his side, with the handsome young Augustus across the hall, and Nero on the next shelf. A procession of Satyrs along him illustrated feet heel to heel and winged victories and such ethereal bodies flutter encased in the corners.
In the next room, Venus of Melos,
the Armless Wonder, looks down into
a case of Roman and Greek relics:
money, quite as artistic as the new
dimes, seal rings, carved knives, and
even buttons, belt buckles, and hair
pins that once held in place the tresses
of some ancient Helen.
The classical museum is an interesting place to spend a spare hour or two and get away from life's pleasures around and find new things you didn't know before.

JAYHAWKER THIS YEAR IS A PICTURE BOOK
11th and McGee Streets, Kansas City, Mo.
Annuals to Come Out Tuesday Will Be Full of Snapshots and Tri-colored Plates.
The long looked for Jayhawks will make their appearance at eight-thirty o'clock Tuesday morning at the check stand in Frasier Hall. They did not decrease their size or alter their contents, except to add a new section.
HOTEL KUPPER
A good place to make your headquarters. Particularly desirable for ladies—being on Petticat Lane—the center of the shopping district.
"I received a long distance call from Kansas City this morning," said Arnold Nordstrom, editor of the Jayhawker, "saying the crowded conditions of the bindery will delay the books a day, but they will be here Monday afternoon and ready for sale Tuesday morning. People who have purchased or part purchased their annuals must bring their receipts and balance due, and others can buy books as long as they last."
Let us figure on that next banquet.
Convenient to all theatres. Excellent cafe in connection.
WALTER S. MARS Proprietor and Manager.
The plan of the editors has been to make this year's Jayhawker interesting to every one in the University. The camera squad has been busy and the 35 pages of snap shots contain 1500 faces. Pictures were taken when less than half of them and no one when these secret photographers might have snapped him. "Wait and see," is what the editors say of this section.
