SENATE OPPOSES NEW CONSITUTION
Move to Call Convention Failed by Two Votes Yesterday Afternoon
INCOME BILL HAS CHANCE
Measure May Pass as Amendment to the Present Constitution
The question of calling a constitutional convention failed yesterday by two votes in the state senate. The vote was 25 to 15 in favor of submitting the proposition to a vote of the people but 27 votes are required for final passage. Supporters of the bill expect to have that number by the time the resolution comes up for final vote.
A heated debate featured the session of the senate in deciding the bill. Many members were accused of playing to the grandstand on account of the large audience in the gallery and spirited language used. Supporters of the bill lost four votes when H. M. McCormick, the senator, and Wilder S. Meclaf, of Lawrence, changed their votes on the bill and voted against the passage of the bill.
Senator Price criticized the newspapers for backing the constitutional convention and stated his views that the people should favor an amendment to submit more than three amendments to the vote of the people at one session of the legislature. This would materially help pass the Permanent Income Bill.
If the constitutional convention is held and the Permanent Income Bill becomes a part of the new constitution, it will be at least four years before the state educational institutions will receive any benefit from the law on account of the slow process of making the Bill a part of the law.
The quickest way to make the Bill effective would be to have it pass as one of the three amendments to the present constitution; but advocates of the Income Bill believe that the Bill has the best opportunity of becoming a law by being made a part of the new constitution.

WITH THE VISITORS
The merchants like this Short Course. They said so themselves. Seventeen merchants picked at random, were asked what they thought of the course. They answered in various ways but every merchant said he wouldn't miss another course. He said, and what he said.
C. C. Brooker, secretary, Marion County Chamber of Commerce: "I have never missed a short course. The state is performing a great service to the merchants. The merchants appreciate it. In fact, they appreciate it so much they are willing to pay my expenses."
S. W. Bull, Mariette; "I haven't been here long enough to form an opinion. This is my first short course."
J. H. Marshall, Bonner Springs;
"The short course is a fine thing for
the merchants. I am very much
interested. This is my third course."
H. Ackerman, Marysville; "It is all right, I haven't been here long enough to know much about it."
William Jacobs, Topeka; "The short course is instructive and a good thing for any merchant to attend."
C, E. Vickland, Topeka; "I guess the baw sums as my MR. Jacuzzi. I had been told that he was going to work."
Merrell Blank, Longton; "That man Flint is a peach. I guess I enlisted him as a Common Sense Principles in the Psychology of Advertising', the most."
B. A. W. Bender, Holton; "I enjoyed
A. B. W. Bender's course,
beneficial in my business."
Carl Ricker, Emporia; "It is a crime for a merchant not to avail himself of the opportunities offered by the course. The merchant who found the course is insuring himself a place at the foot of the procession."
Robt. T. Johnson, Lindsborg: "The lectures have been much better. Spargo's lecture on Socialism certainly put a different meaning in it."
Darwin W. Ahrens, Paola; "I have picked up lots of new ideas. The
round tables have been great. We certainly had a time at the clothing round table yesterday."
W. E. Fluke, Dighton; "M. Buhrman's speech appealed to me the most. This is my first course. I am planning to attend again next year."
Charles Haynes, Emporia; "I have learned lots from the course. It is a shame that the merchants do not attend. I must not attend. It just makes it harder for them."
O. L. Johnson, Neodesha: "The course is fine. I was here every day last year. It has been a great help to me."
Carl Woody, Salina; "This is my first course. It is practical and has given me some good ideas about the hardware business."
C. J. Hessel, Cheney; "I have attended every course. I have received considerable benefit for them."
Mrs. J. W. Brown, Caldwell; "Fine,
I like it. It is certainly practical."
Nineteen women are enrolled for the Short Course. And they aren't all from Lawrence, either. There are two or three living in Lawrence but the majority are from towns near Lawrence. Last year the weathers kept many women from attending the course.
Otto Boehrman goes next week to Pueblo, Colorado, where he will address the Colorado Short Course. E. Leslie Wilde will speak in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or the merchants of Minnesota. Short His talk will deal with the mail-order business and the way to beat it.
A business session of the Kansas Retail Jewelers' Association is being held this afternoon in Marvin Hall. This meeting has brought many jewels to Lawrence who have been attending the Short Course meetings.
PHI KAPPA PSIS WILL MOVE TO NEW HOUSE House Sprang Up Over Niel
A modern genui must have smiled on the Phi Kappa Pi fraternity. Last night Doc and Henry both dreamed that the house the fraternity had been planning to build for the last twenty-five years was finished and ready to be inhabited. This morning sprung up a new sign at Tewblath and Indiana a palatial home with "Phi Pai Sorority House" inscribed on it.
It is said the chapter will move into their new quarters shortly.
The Phi Pais have invited the thoughtful soul who were behind the fairy-like appearance of the new house on their property to the room-warming scheduled for any hour after supper that suits the convenience of the donors.

STUDENTS LINE UP FOR GRADES
Wait in Line Hours to Learn
Fate of Last Semester's
Just how much is it worth to yo-
know your grades? Are you willing
to brave the long line of anxious
students which stretches from the
door of Registrar Foster's office to
the main entrance to Fraser?
Work
"It it cost me just one dollar to relieve the suspense and assure myself that my grades were just what I expected, but instead I tended student as he emerged from the office door this morning and surveyed the long line of anxious studies. "I was in the line two different times, and I had a few cents an hour. But it was worth it."
A majority of the students have secured their grades, it was announced at the registrar's office this morning, but the line is still unchanged. Most students know the courses, but the registrar's file is the safest source of information.
The smile or scowl on the student's face is an indication of how a professor has treated him. A smile tells as plainly as words that the "prof" has stretched a point and marked a II when the student was really expecting a III. A serious "it-might-have been" expression is a sure indication that the instructor has "hewn to the floor" and changed an optimist into a passim.
"The rush is about the same every semester," said Registrar Foster this morning. Practically every student comes to assure himself exactly how he fared. Grades can be obtained the rest of the week."
Math Club to Meet
The next meeting of the Mathematics Club will be held Monday, February 12, at 4:30 p. m., in room 103, Administration Building. Professor Wheeler will talk on "Adding and Multiplying Machines."
