14 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SOUR OWL READY TO SPREAD WINGS News Butchers Will Sell Comic Sheet at the Big Game "All tied in bundles of a hundred and half and hid away until clock Thursday." That's the answer that Don Davis editor of the "Sour Owl," gives people when they ask about the progress of the University's new comic magazine. "You'll have it at the game, sure?" he admires student. Sure. ART WORK A FEATURE Art work takes up a great part of the magazine, there being about ten pages of cartoons in it. One of these is a double page spread across the center of the magazine, drawn by Ben Minturn. The cartoon is a take-off on football slang terms, and features the annual twisting of the Tiger's tail. Other artists who contributed are Bob Mason, F. P. Braille, and Bailley. Bailey was formerly artist of the Illinois "Siren." The editor design in four colors, drawn by Bob Mason, is one of the attractive features of the magazine. The "highbrow stuff and otherwise" for the magazine was written by some fourteen contributors, most of whom are known for their work on the campus. Carolyn McNutt, who was responsible for the department called "Pandora's Box" which appeared in the Kansan every day for a year in 1914-15, is a contributor; as well Willard Wattles, editor of "Sprayflowers," the book of many poems; and other contributions of merit have been made by Dick Treweke, Milford W. Hale, Elizabeth Sullivan, Margaret Hodder, L. D. Hartley, Moore Joe Murray, J. W. McMurphy, Glendon Allvine, Everett Palmer, John Dykes, and the editor Don Davis.

DUTCH ADDED TO K. U. CURRICULUM New Course Will be of Great Practical Value, Says Professor Appelboom K. U. is progressive. More opportunities are given every year to its students. One of the new languages which will be found in the catalogue next year will be "Modern Dutch" Prof. Peter Appelboom of the department of Romance languages, who gave us such an interesting lecture the other day on "Holland and its People," has been appointed to give the course by request of the Department of Germanic languages. When Mr. Appelboom was asked today what he believed would be the probable advantage that would come from taking courses in dutch, he said: "I believe that courses in Dutch language and literature will be of great practical value to our students. Those who study history will find the knowledge of that language helpful for investigating the Dutch influence on American history. Students of philosophy and literature will find it of great interest because "For diplomatic and commercial purposes Dutch is also important, for it is spoken not only in the Netherlands, in Belgium and in South Africa, but also in the Dutch colonies which offer a tremendous field for exploration. In other words, Dutch is spoken in some of the most important commercial regions in the world." Dutch stands between English and German while the influence of Dutch literature on the English cannot be denied. Mr. Appelbom added that he hopes to show the relation of Dutch with English and German as much as possible in his courses. Dutch is much closer to English than is German. Mr. Appelbloom was born and educated in Holland, and is thoroughly familiar with its history and literature. He has traveled widely, both in the past and present, in commercial capacities. He speaks many of the continental languages of Europe like a native. He adds to his academic attainments a thorough knowledge of business conditions in foreign make the new course of value to students who wish to learn the language for commercial purposes.
