Popular Electrical Gifts
The Chafing Dish
The Toaster
For the co-ed fudge party or little lunches, a more suitable and popular gift cannot be found.
Just the thing for preparing a breakfast. Place it on the table and make the toast during the meal.
The Electric Iron
Think how convenient an "Electric" would be since every young lady has some ironing. The young men would find it more reliable than a pantorium.
We have many other suitable electrical gifts in our stock that we would be glad to demonstrate. Water Heater—Warming Pads—Electric Stoves—Electric Cleaners—Electric Washers, etc.

FOURTH CHANCELLOR WAS HARD WORKER, FRIENDS SAY
www.icc.org.cn
(Seven years ago this month the fourth Chancellor of the University died in California)
Though Dr. Joshua A. Lippincott, the fourth Chancellor of the University of Kansas, has been written of as a man of limited abilities, all reliable history gives him much credit for the growth of the school.
Of him Prof. Charles G. Dunlap, an intimate acquaintance says: "One is struck with the diversified interests that made up Mr. Lippincott's life. It shows that he was a man unusually gifted with executive power and ability. His life was an exceeding varied and busy one. He was a worker to the last, and never spared himself by imposing his burdens upon others. He had to find an outlet for his energies. Activity made up his life. No detail, however trivial, was ever slighted. He loved work and found satisfaction and solace in it."
Born in Burlington County, N. J., Jan. 31, 1883 Dr. Lippincott received his early education in the grade schools there. Finishing grades he held Pennington Seminary, where he prepared for Dickinson College. Graduated from Dickinson at the age of twenty-three he was immediately offered a place in the Seminary, a position which he accepted, teach mathematics and German. Four years later he resigned to become superintendent of schools at Scranton.
Went to New Jersey
He was soon seen here to a position in the N. J. State Normal at Trenton. In 1865 he was admitted as a member of the Methodist Episcopal church of the Wyoming Conference and became pastor of Asbury church at Atwater. He was remained for two years.
Leaving Hockensorf he became
professor of mathematics and astronomy at Dickinson College. He remained there until 1833 when he resigned his chair to accept the Chancellorship of the University of Kansas.
At that time the appropriations for the University were small and growth under this circumstances seemed almost impossible. But through Dr. Lippincott the preparatory department was transferred to the high schools of the state and the other divisions enlarged.
Library, Room 17, of Fraser Dr. Lippincott came to the University of Kansas when it was small and still encumbered with a prepatory department. But he knew which to house the various divisions of the school, including the scientific laboratories. The library was small and occupied Room 14 in Fraser hall. There were eighteen members in the library, in addition to his administrative duties, served as professor of moral philosophy.
In 1889, he left Kansas to become pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal church of Topeka, where he remained for several years. Leaving Topeka he went to the Arch Street M . E. church of Philadelphia as pastor, serving as secretary of the international hospital there. He died in Los Angeles, Cal., Dec. 31, 1906, at the home of his son.
During his administration the membership of the faculty increased from nineteen to thirty-five and the appropriations from three hundred and Medical halls were built and the Pharmacy department established.
