THE WEEKLY MIXER
After the big success of the first mixer there were many of the students who were hoping that there would be a mixer every week. There was some talk of opening the Robinson Gym for a social time and a dance every Friday evening. Have the promoters of the plan given up hope? There ought to be several more good times before the Summer Session is over. Why not have another?
THE MORNING AFTER
CUSSING THE PAPER
From the appearance of the students and the tired looks of the professors the Fourth was a glorious success. Some of the staid school boys went to Kansas City and just returned in time for class, others went home, and the rest remained here and swoltered.
Of course, no one had their lessons. Could they be expected to write a theme or read a book while they were celebrating? Of course not.
Ten years ago a man at the head of one of the big city dailies started a campaign for a sane and safe Fourth. This year only ten persons were killed as a result of the insane Fourth. The number of lives lost has decreased from hundreds to ten. And it was the result of one newspaper's attempt to be of service to the public.
Many persons say that the newspapers of the country are worse than none at all. Many well educated people believe that the big papers are scandal mongers and trouble makers.
But in spite of this fact persons will continue to cuss the paper.
OUR VISITORS.
The University has been doing work at the Summer Session that is of inestimable value to the state. The different conferences that have been held here will have a large influence upon the leaders of the state. The health officers learned that deaths by tuberculosis has decreased at least one third, and furthermore the health campaign that has been carried on under the direction of the University, has resulted in better sanitary conditions all over the state.
After listening to the various talks by experts on bacteriology and hygiene the doctors went away knowing that the University is doing practical work along lines that will be of benefit to the people of the state.
After the doctors, the University was the host of the Kansas schoolmen. And the schoolmen were not only from Kansas but from several other states. They listened to lectures by the educational experts—the best in the country. These schoolmen were largely county superintendents and principals of high schools and the application of the new ideas that they learned will result in better schools for Kansas. They left with higher ideals for their school the coming years. They discussed the different problems that they had been called upon to solve the past year and by exchanging ideas will be more capable of answering problems that will arise.
What did the doctors and the schoolmen think of K. U.? Did the University impress them favorably? These are questions which are vital. If the schoolmen liked the school they will do much toward sending the best of the promising material from the high schools of the state here to school. If the doctors were impressed they will boost the School of Medicine and also take an interest in the health board and its work.
LAWRENCE AND MANHATTAN WATER
"The water in the cities of Lawrence and Manhattan is bad and should be condemned," says Dr. Crumbine. The two largest educational institutions in the state are located in towns that have poor water.
Lawrence receives the benefit of the sewage from Topeka and other cities along the Kaw. Scarcely a day passes that the water is not reported as bad. In Manhattan they pump the water from an old channel of the Blue river. In both cases the institutions have tested the water many times and have objected to the number of bacteria in the water. Each town has known of the danger but does nothing, and students are exposed to the danger. Why is not something done for this trouble?
These cities because of the number of students in attendance in the schools, are under moral obligation to the rest of the state to furnish pure water to the students.
Lawrence and Manhattan should
have busy and have pure water.
Just because there are at present no epidemics of diseases is no sign that the water is safe and that there never will be any danger.

Bay Rum—I have. Even when
was a baby they used to call me a
nice little shaver."
Old Bear—This here Tango is a kind of a crazy dance, isn't it?
Some Bear—Yes, it is kind of dipy.
Ho! Ho!

"That umpire manages to keep cool."
"That's where I shine," said the young man as he showed his blue serge suit to the tailor.
"He ought to, surrounded by a thousand moving fans."
An Explanation.
The Widow.
No, they didn't cut, they just announced in chapel that they were going to Pageant Practice or rather Miss Kent announced that every girl must go up town on the 1:30 car and no one must let her lessons interfere with her work. But it wasn't so unruly as it seemed for Prof. A. H. King had been consulted and he understood that the girls must have the afternoon for a dress rehearsal for the Pageant and had given his permission. Thus it was that the "eternal masculine" had classes all their own way on Tuesday after moon - Salina Wesleyan Advance.
William C. Ferguson who has been managing editor of the Atchison Champion for a year plans to return to the University this fall to finish his course in journalism
