Thə Stranger
A portrait-painter, who was doing very little business, was advised by a friend to paint a picture of himself and his wife, and to hang it out in the street as an advertisement. This he did and shortly afterwards his father-in-law came along. Gazing at the picture for some time, the latter at length asked, "Who is that woman?" "Why that is your daughter," replied the artist. "Whatever is she doing," again inquired her father, "sitting there with that stranger?" —From the Chinese.

BEEFSTEAK IS BAD FOR FOOTBALL MEN
Yale Professor's Tests Show That Proteid is Poor Diet
for Athletes
According to Prof. H. L. Jackson, of the food analysis department, the K. U. table is run on a diet directly opposed to what eastern investigators would recommend after consider-able careful study and experimenting.
"Back at Yale, about five years ago," said professor Jackson, "Prof. R. H. Chittenden, director of the Sheffield Scientific school of Yale, made some diet experiments to determine what foods were best to give maximum strength and endurance to not only athletes, but to any person. His conclusions are very interesting at this particular time.
Now that K. U. has a Varsity training table down at Mrs. Winey's on Ohio street, an interesting comment on training table ideas is shown by a comparison of the diets given at the K. U. table and investigations carried on in the east several years ago on certain diets for athletics.
"Dr. Chittenden experimented on college professors, soldiers, and athletes, using a diet in which lean meat was almost entirely absent. In all cases, he got 50 to 100 per cent protein and endurance from his subjects.
Small Amount of Proteid.
"Professor Chittendon laid the basis of his dieting for athletes on the fact that the body needs only a certain small amount of protied foods, of which lean meat is the chief food, but that such many people eat to excess of their needs. Moreover, he showed that such an excess of lean meats actually harm those who so indulge.
"Proteid foods, he explained, furnish the strengthening matter for the body muscles, whereas fat foods furnish the heat. He then shows that when one eats too much protide foods, his body becomes clogged with the excess proteids just as a grate fire is ruined by clinkers. "It is these protide clinkers, this excess of unused nutrition which it actually takes energy to throw off," says Professor Chittenden, "that makes us tired, lazy, and sore after exercise." The last point is the significant point.
"Proceeding on the idea that only a small amount of proteins such as lean meat, far below what people ordinarily eat, was needed, Professor Chittenden gradually reduced the amount of proteins his soldiers, professors, and track athletes ate to what they were supposed to actually need. He took strength an endurance training and after almost dieting, and found in all cases that the men showed 50 to 100 per cent increase in strength and endurance, with loss of weight only to those who were inclined to be excessively corpulent. His soldiers, who started out eating an average of 20.63 ounces of meat per day, ended up on 0.7 ounces of meat per day, with wonderful gains in strength and endurance.
"To prove that his other training and exercise during the period of training was not responsible for the increased strength, Professor used athletes who at the beginning of the tests had been in the prime of racing condition for some time. Later he graduated from college with the Collegiate and All-American intercollegiate championship of America.
Trained Men Helped.
"Another important thing about these tests is that in order to get any benefit from dieting, the dieting must last over long enough time to get the men gradually used to the low protein fare. Since the football season is very short, it is plain that the training table should begin back in August as to have the men in shape during October and November."
Professor Chittendon wrote a book containing his conclusions and experiments in 1907, and lectured to the K. U. Sigma Xi in 1908. He is personally known to Professor Cady of the chemistry department, who met him at the recent chemistry convention in New York. Since the K. U. training table puts up beefsteals in abundance, the contrast between eastern ideas and our own of tables is quite marked.
The University faculty has 171 members, but the number of students to each teacher is larger than in almost any other university.
Twenty-six University students will take active part in the cast of the suffrage play "How The Vote Was Won," to be staged at the Bowersock theater Saturday. The play was written in England where it has been used extensively in suffrage work and will be used as a curtain raiser for the play "Black Hollow" here.
UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
TO HELP SUFFRAGETTES
"Black Hollow" was written by Zona Gale and has been dramatized especially for suffrage work by Mrs. Cowper, wife of Frederick Cowper, of the French department. Both plays are highly entertaining as well as educational and a large crowd is looked for.
MERCHANTS DEMAND ADVERTISED GOODS
Statistics Gathered In Lawrence By
That the modern merchant's choice of the brands of goods which he will carry is practically determined by advertising was brought out in an investigation conducted this week by members of the advertising class in the department of journalism.
Journalism Class Prove Newspapers Are Good Salesmen
Thirty-nine of the leading merchants of Lawrence were interviewed by thirteen members of the class and were questioned as to the considerations which influence them in deciding on what goods to put on a shirt or coat. In all of the answer was, "We carry the brands of goods that are advertised, because those are the goods that the people ask for."
In only one case did a merchant express the ancient view in saying that he paid no attention to advertising unless, as he said, "There's so much call for the thing that I'm forced to put it in."
"Before a salesman can take an order from me," said a successful buyer for a large store, "he must show me that he is going to push the manufacturer." He should make the manufacturer pay the large part of the advertising bill.
One drugstiff who carries several lines from a manufacturer who advertises each line in turn in the local papers said, "If I never saw a paper I could tell which line was being adorned and what it would make. The demand coincides with the ads that happen to be running at that time."
"Advertised goods are the easiest to sell," said practically every merchant, "and it's no use to try to substitute any other brand for a brand that has established its name. Advertising certainly pays."
The laboratory for drug analysis at the University touches the life of every Kansan; it is testing daily spices, coffees, teas, linseed oil and turpentine; crude drugs, patent medicines, habit producing drugs, thus guiding the health and life of the state.
The sanitary engineers at the University, working in connection with the state board of health, are giving their services, full time, to the inspection and improvement of water supplies, and sewage disposal plants in various towns and cities.
The University counts LS its most important practical work for the state the training of thousands of the state's young men and women to be efficient and public-spirited citizens who will exercise the most beneficent influence on public opinion.
The training and placing of teachers, superintendents and principals for Kansas schools, together with the visitation and reorganization of the Kansas high schools, has been one of the University's most fruitful fields of labor.
The water analysis and milk analysis in connection with the state board of health is one means utilized by the University to give the whole people the benefit of its laboratory equipment.
Sixteen of the University buildings, are used for purposes of instruction, the remaining two being the heating plant and the Chancellor's residence.
Seventeen thousand families have been represented in the student body since the founding of the University of Kansas.

A GRAD'S ADVICE
Editor Daily Kansan:
At the University of West Virginia at each fraternity sets aside certain nights during the year for the entertainment of non-fraternity men. The members may ask a few friends from outside the fraternity, and by asking different men each time a great many men are entertained during the year. Why could not this be done at Kansas University? Dances, Smokers or other sorts of amusement might be provided so that the men might enjoy a social evening and also learn something about the fraternity life. This ought to remove much of the prejudice against the fraternities which is quite common among students, and would more likely result in bringing many desirable men into the fraternities.
Why should the fraternities do this? It would seem that organizations whose object is to further the "Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of man" would be foremost in definite service to the University and its students, instead of benefiting principally, if not solely, its own members. The other student organizations, such as the Athletic Association, the Masque Club, the Y. M. C. A., the Kansan Staff and others of like nature are all contributing much to the enjoyment and edification of the average student, even though he does not belong to them. Can as much be honestly said for the average fraternity?
