SENIORS SHOULD GET PICTURES IN BY 20TH
Early Date of Issue of Jayhawker Demands Submission of Prints
Soon
Because of the desire to get the Jayhawk out a month earlier than usual all seniors must hand their photograph prints and fees into the university 20 an dall organizations' and juniors' must be in by February 1. The Annual office in the basement of Green Hall will be open for this purpose every school day from 8:30 to 10:30 and from 11:30 to clock up to 12.

Dr. Alma Webster Powell Promise to Appear in Convocation on January 21
The Annual is printed in sections of sixteen consecutive pages each and since practically all of the departments must be held until the last minute—the athletic department because of basketball and truck, the baseball team and soccer matches etc., the classes and organizations make up the most available material which can be handed in to the printers at an early date.
The Jayhawker management is endeavoring to have the book out as near April 1 as possible and if that date is lived up to the printing company must have one-third or one-half the copy by the middle of February.
The entertainment will be as interesting as any of the former convocation entertainments and it will be more interesting and educational to those who love music than previous chapel performances have been.
PRIMA DONNA WILL SING BEFORE KANSAS AUDIENCE
After copy is handed to the Jayhawkmanagement it must beproof-read, pictures sent to the engraver's and the cuts proofed andperhaps made over, and after the printer gets the copy and sets it up in typewriter or keyboard and corrects by the printer and twice by the Jayhawk editors. This showswhy the early date for receivingcopy is necessary.

Rev. Wolfe to Leave Church
BOARD PLANS TRADE OF FACULTY MEMBERS
Rev. Wolfe to Leave Church Rev. Henry E. Wolfe, pastor of the First Methodist church at Lawrence, will give up his post in this city at the next annual meeting of the Methodist conference, in March. The First church has the largest student following in Lawrence.
Superintendent J. M. Shea has given the company a room in the Gym which has been fitted with individual lockers in which the men can enter freely. Thus saving the time and trouble of checking them out everytime they change uniforms. "The men have turned out well and the recruiting has been good," said Captain Jones. The company has an enrollment of 65 men.
Recommends Sending Profes sors and Students to Other State Schools
To interchange faculty members and students between one Kansas educational institution and another is a plan recommended by the Board of Administration in its biennial report to George H. Hodges.
If the plans made by the Board are carried out, students from the University for example, may go to the Agricultural College or to any other school and take work applying it on their degree from the University.
His Vision of That Trade
Already faculty advice has been sent from one school to another over the state. The Board plans to make changes to its advice program, "Experts along all lines cannot be employed in all the schools and arrangements have been made for an interchange of expert advice and assistance among the schools," reads the report.
"Engineers and architects from one school have been sent into other schools to help solve problems. The employees of each institution stand ready at all times to give assistance to the other institutions either by hand or by loan of books, material, or equipment. Thus it is that each institution has at its command practically all the resources of the eight schools.
Sending students from one school to another for a part of their course will make the system more economical and effective. It is our expectation to have a plan worked out by next year that will allow a student to go to another school with a specialist another school and to use those grades on his degree from the institution in which he has done most of his work."
"Jesus was one of the broadest, widest-hearted, far-reaching men," said the Rev. Henry E. Wolfe, of the First Methodist church at morning prayers before 125 students this morning. "He reached out and out and included all men. He was too broad for the Jews. He taught not only the Jews but the Gentiles also." "He was broad," Reverend Wolfe continued, "because he hammered away on narrow lines until they broadened." He went to the law, the Bibleman and the Samaritan, as well as to the high. His love went out to everybody and he forgave everyone."
