MOVIE ADVERTISING vs. SHYNESS AND DATES It Took Jack's Nerve But—
Jack went to a movie last Friday night, disregarding all rules of health set down by the Board of Health. He had no date. The theatre was crowded and Jack was seated between two women from the Hill. Both had dates.
In the course of the 57 varieties of advertising slides one appeared telling you to ask her at your side for a dance and dance scheduled some time this month.
Instantly over the entire theatre rose a whisper of proposals and acceptances. Now Jack's next-door neighbors had men who were bashful; they merely laughed at the slide and began to talk of the weather.
Jack knew one of the girls. Disregarding all set rules of etiquette, he leaned over and asked her for the date for that dance.
She gasped slightly; then smiled and said yes.
What would you have done had you been Jack?
Or perhaps you were.
Book Reviews
"Penchant. A Plea for the Older Ways."
By William Watson. Reviewed by James D. McCallum of the English department faculty, University of
The author divides literature into three main groups: (1) the "cantative,"—chanted words, best illustrated by parts of the Bible, (2) the "scriptive"—the "essentially written," the special province, nursery, and natural history of the Bible having the tone and manner of talk, for which the writings of Andrew Lang are chosen as examples. "Pencraft" deals, naturally, with the second of these divisions. Mr. Watson wrote in his book Apologia. No artist, other than the penman, offers excuses for supposed limitations of his craft, and the author scorns those who, affecting the pose and uniliterature, would treat the literary act as idle and unimportant to the criticize verifiers "who write as if metrical laws were made solely to be broken," and some interesting comments are directed against present American literary production, "Pencraft" pretends to be nothing more than a "plea for the older ways" and as such is a item of interest. In fact, in literature—John Lane Company, New York. Price $1. 104 pages.

Italy, France and Britain at War. Italy, H. G. Wells. Reviewed by Michael J. Tavolari. European history, University of Kansas, and war correspondent in France, sum-
In this latest volume from his pen Mr Wells recalls his impressions after a visit to the three battle fronts indicated in the title. Among the great mass of books dealing with the same subject this contribution is quite rare, but it provides the aptitude with which the author strikes a point here or illuminates a situation there. Frankly he writes from the point of view of the Entente Allies. Aowing himself a pacifist he started on his trip, and when he crossed the Atlantic, but this attitude did not prevent him leaving a most vivid record of what he saw or drawing the keenest conclusions from his experiences. The difficult mountain fighting in the Trentino, the work of the Italian Giustino, the ruins of Arras and Soissons and the allied advance along the Somme are graphically portrayed.

heroic leader. The great man is the common man. The single figure that stands for the finest qualities of the Allies is the French leader, Joffre, and he, according to Wells, is the ordinary common sense man. The mechanical phase of his art played by the airplane and the British tank. To the work of aviators, above everything else, the author attributes the success on the Somme, the allied airmen having secured a complete ascendance over the corresponding arm of the enemy's forces after the bombing war. For this superiority is an interesting suggestion. Although the part played by the tank was a smaller one it is predicted the land ironclad can be almost indefinitely increased in its terrific efficiency and that the destructive power of this engine of war will be a large one in making future wars impossible.
Social and economic changes following the war, the author believes, will be along the line of collective service, manufacturers and land owners

In his last chapter Wells makes an eloquent appeal for a sane settlement at the end of the war on the broad basis suggested by President Wilson, including a league of peace, an international tribunal to deal with cases of armed mea-ments to compel its decisions. But this will not be sufficient. His collective service or the "kingdom of God," as he calls it must be international in its character and not national, regulating such things as world shipping, world food supply and world natural resources.

ACCOUNTANTS WILL GET JOBS
Students to Help Revise Book-Keeping Systems in State Retail Stores
Prof. H. D. Harper, of the department of economics and commerce, is planning to give employment to three accounting students during the summer.
The work will be to establish standardized bookkeeping and accounting systems in the retail stores of the harper company, and the supervision of Professor Harper.
Professor Harper got the idea when he saw the interest shown in accounting by the Kansas merchants during the Merchants' Short Course. During the course he gave five lectures on accounting methods. Many of the merchants at that time spoke of their indegenerate systems of bookkeeping.
