LEARNING YIELDS TO LAW DIPLOMA
What Availeth It a Man If He Gain the World and Lose a Sheepskin
Widely read in Latin, appreciative of Browning, familiar with English and American history and a student of law, A. B., a mechanic in a Kansas town still finds it impossible to realize his ambitions to become a lawyer because there is a statute in Kansas which provides that preparation of the session must be made in the office of justice or in an accredited school of law. And A. B. did not get his training in either place.
In a letter to H. G. Ingham, secretary of the Correspondence Study Department, to whom A. B. writes for advice, he says: "I am thirty years of age. I have worked hard and learned my trade and I have utilized my extra hours by means of general reading and night schools. As a result, I have gained experience that he has read the German Classes in the original, and speaks the language fluently. Also, he has read many French authors.
He studied law "in his own way," with the hope of being admitted to the bar, but found, as he himself states it, that, "although I may have the wings, I cannot fly because they are not trimmed technically aright."
Consequently, for his ambition to become a lawyer, he is forced to substitute another, and says, "My wish now is to fit myself for some position wherein the labor of the brain may have been more or less, maimed and weakened by heavy labor and serious accident. Can it be done through a correspondence course? I thought that possibly my previous studies would enable me to pursue some course in which I might acquire credits that would enable me to qualify as a teacher in, say either American history or English literature. If not, I must continue to finish those five-ton Santa Fe locomotive cylinders which keep their engine running in a fortured world. I shall not cease to believe "ad altaori natus, vel si nor altora, salem alien!"
AT OTHER SCHOOLS
A big campaign for a Student Union Building is being conducted at the University of California. The building is to have roomes rooms for 88 student organizations and also accommodations for the social fun- cesses of the university, office rooms for the daily, and a dormitory for the training table.
A flour sack beautifully embroidered by a Belgian woman has been sent to Indiana University from Belgium by Dr. Robert Withington, who went to that country as a member of a relief corps. Among the designs worked on the sack are the coat-of-arms of Moll, Belgium, and also the words, "Thanks to the People of Indiana."
The Viking fascimile edition of the old Norse "Speulum Regale" has been completed at the University of Illinois and is ready for distribution. It has taken the University five years to prepare the work, the original of which was written in the late 13th century, where it is in a part of the Aramagnnean Collection. It is a parchment of 136 pages, dating back to the thirteenth century.
Military drill has been instituted at the University of Pennsylvania. All the students were called out for the first lessons in the rudiments of drilling and then there was a division into squads. The students of the school seem immensely pleased with the drills and the training that is given to them by the methods adopted in the drills.
BY THE WAY—
Aslop's Fable of the Prom
Asiop's Fable of the Prom Oppressed with the sense of his own exceeding importance and weary of the perpetual charms of the infinitive man in 1916 determined to vary his monotonous existence by importing a fair damsel from the City for the big game. She came, he fell, oh! so deepy, and he resolved then and there to invite her to the Prom.
Later he paid double dues and once more she graced Mt. Oread. Alas! among K. U.'s smooth and entrenching dancers she proved to be deficient. A peeved and charned Junior accompanied the importation to the tavern, where, in response, he hustled her onto the train, wiped his brow, and softly swore.
Moral: It's the imported that counts least and costs most.

To the Students of the University of Kansas:
Isn't it of great importance for you to get the best board for the least money?

The average boarder has used twelve $5.50 Coupon Books at $5.00 each making a total of $60.00, an average of $3.33 per week.
