The world has lost one of its most learned scientists and one who has used his scientific knowledge in a way which has made itself felt in the daily lives of millions of people. LUTHER BURBANK Literally hundreds of beautiful flowers, trees, grasses and other hundreds of tasteful and nutritious fruits, grains and vegetables have been given to the world by him. Burkard亡, according to his own belief, without hope of life after death, but with the wonderful realization that in his seventy-seven years he has made the life possibilities of every man brighter and more beautiful, in addition to widening his choice of beautiful foods almost beyond measure. No man has ever lived who has been the equal of Burbank as a plant hybridizer. Interest in this field has been largely developed by this one man. THE OTHER SIDE The main objection most people find with the American Mercury is that the bright green cover in too conspicuous. There has been not a little complaint that the Y, M, C, A, has been giving students a chance to hear but one side of the pacification-militarization question, and that, the side of pacifism. This week the Y, M, C, A. presents a speaker representing the other side. Carl White, editor of the Kansas City Kansan, and a member of the Reserve Officers corps, will be the speaker Wednesday night. University students have heard Thomas Que Harrison present the side of pacifism. They should be equally interested in hearing what Mr. White will have to say in defense of militarism. It is not known what the speaker will say, but whatever he says, he takes pains to come out and say what he believes emphatically. There should be a large crowd at Wednesday's meeting, ready to hear the speaker with an open mind and deal fairly with the question. For under any other conditions, it will be impossible to derive full benefit from the meetings at Myers hall. Crime received a boost in Kansas City Saturday when the police "black list" against professional bondmen was erased. The war on the tactics and practices of the professional bondmen that started in 1921 has been stopped on account of failure to break up the system. State movie censors reviewed the films of the extension division recently. That must have been the idea of taking a day off. A BOON FOR CRIME professional criminals may be released by bond furnished by professional bondmen. The bondmen receive big fees and the criminals are turned loose to "earn" money to pay their court fines and bondmen fees. Professional bondmen are a boom to crime. Under this system almost anyone accused of crime can be released from jail under bond provided by these professionals. The professionals then collect their fees. America, land of the free, leads the world in crime, due largely to the inefficient criminal law system. England, with but little crime, has a simple, effective, efficient criminal court system. Professionals bondmen do not exist there. The United States must come to reform on criminal laws or the criminal will destroy the country. A good example is the professional bondman system. A FALSE ALARM Editors in this vicinity have taken the hars from their windows, hug their verbal skibooters behind the office door, and rather happily, though reluctantly, admitted that the attack on the Stirs and Strips that they had prophesied somehow failed to materialize. The dangerogen Paul Stanford visited the University and deported without inflicting any mortal injuries. Preceded by a wave of carefully planned pregenaids branding him an agent of bewbiskererd Russian leaders, Mr. Blankard early presented certain socialistic theories to groups of University students and an adamly departed without attempting to run up the red flag on Mount Oread. His visit to other Kansas colleges was just as mild and unseventy. Blairshand proved not to be the dangerous person the newspapers thought he was, and they are glad to acknowledge their mistake. They realize that to prevent anyone from giving an open address at a university or college would be to violate the sacred principles of free discussion upon which such institutions are founded. SHADE OF MAMMA AND PAPA! Education is looking up. No longer need parents worry about sending their daughters and sons to institutions of higher learning. Cast a glance at this extract from the bulletin of Manchester College, Manchester, Ind. "Children should be sparkly supplied with spending money while at school. " **It is needless for children to spend a great amount of money. In some cases parents will do well to deposit spending money in their bank account, transmit business for the parent or caretaker when requested to do so." What an excellent idea! What groom of slobful suggest can have brittle the administration of our own fair university, that it has no carefully overlooked means of protection for its food charges? Why not install a financial department in Administration building where one's allowance would be deposited each month (sweet direct from papa's bank, preferably) and from which strict watch could be kept on the "children's" financial flights. The idea might be very satisfactory worked on the meal ticket plan. The "children" could call in advance to have their tickets purchased "one date," one "rent A-Feed and "party" "one date pudding," or perhaps even "one package No. 6 note paper." While the plan might call for a few hundred extra executives to be added to the University payroll, the extra trouble and financial expense would certainly be compensated for by the safety to the little ones who are nurturing the development of their tender souls under the sheltering roof tree of the University. WATCH IT GO ROUND Students at Yale will no longer have to take the word of the textbooks in order to believe that the world revolves on an axis. They will be able to watch it with their own eyes after the new Foucault pendulum is installed there. The instrument will consist of a sixty pound weight suspended by a forty foot length length of piano wire from the dome of the museum. Observers may attend in the astronomical room over the dome and looking down at the instrument with a gentle around under the rhythmic unsurveying path of the pendulum. WATCH IT GO 'ROUND The principle of the pendulum is probably a significant step in advance in the scientific world. But there is one difficulty in the way. It is very probable that the president of the Old Toppers' Society will question the accuracy of the instrument and offer his own experience to prove that at times the world and all on it revolves much faster than the instrument would indicate. PHI DELTA KAPPA; OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Copy received at the Chancellor's office until 11:00 a.m. All members of Phi Delta Kappa are requested to meet at 4:15 Tuesday afternoon in room 110 Fraser hall. The meeting will be short, but important. Monday, April 12, 1926 The next rehearsal of the orchestra will be held on the chords Tuesday evening. Full attire is absolutely necessary, and members must arrive at the concert in full dress code. UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA: BOTANY CLUB: An operetta without distinctive songs, lacking unusual voices. “Rose Marie” is charming because it is so well balanced. The story is simple, the scenes are interesting, the cast is well chosen, and the action is swift. It’s good and good “share” journey down to the Stilbert and “rose Marie” for the Stilbert and. The choruses dances well and wear beautiful costumes. The male chorus does some singing which gets over with the audience, but any boarding game can be a bit better. The production is not built about singers, and the songs will none of them set the world on fire, although they are pleasant to listen The Botany Club will meet at 1121莲汀廑站 Wednesday evening, April 14, at 7:15, M.S. G. C. Marc will talk about "The Marine Biological Laboratories" at Wood's Hole, Mose, WILLIARD CRISSON, Pres., DUSSELL D. SMITH, President. At The Theater By Frederick McNeil "The most spectacular chorus number since 'The Parade of the Wooden Soldiers' in Chauvres Souria," "I never saw such a gorgeous wedding scene." The orchestra performed the painted settings," were just a few of the remarks heard at the Kansas City Shubert theater at the opening of "Rose Marie" jint夜. Certainly the "Totem Tom-Tom" number did approach the "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" in many towns were the finest seen by most Oral climats in many a moon. Harry Koker as "Hard Baked" Hermann injected a proper amount of burgery into the action, and with the assistance of Miss Marjorie Dodd as Lady Jane, pats on a kissless arm. Then, in bar bar the show (from Mount Goats) John Kenyon, the big "he-man" hero of the piece is effectively done by Robert Wheeler, who certainly is big enough the songs allotted him. The melodramatic operetta has its setting the wilds of Canada, inhabited by Canadian Mounted Police, Indian舞动 girls, villainous photopolis, and a creature that does not drag an infant from curtain to curtain. Miss Dorothy Searle in the name part starts out uninteringly, but wins the audience as she performs. The hit of the production is Hazel Gaudreau's characterization of Wanda, the half-breed dancing girl who is in the cause of all the trouble. Miss Gaudreau's dancing stopped the show at her every appearance. At a daydawner rally held between the nets, one student of the drama observed, apprehended the dance. "If our dear of women could only cover this!" Unless given special permission by his adviser, no student in Emporin State Teachers College will be allowed to carry more than 15 hours for this. This, the authorities believe, will eliminate many failures and withdrawals. On Other Hills During the past year, gifts totaling $1,575,000 have been received by the University of California. This does not mean that all paintings and additions to the library. A most unique debate will be held at Milwaukee between the Kansas State Agricultural College and the Marquette debating teams. By common agreement, the subject of the debate was decided until the morning of the content. "Sesk汗 class" is an annual tradition of the senior class at the University of Idaho. A certain date and place is assigned to their classes attending. They cut their classes on this day and go to the designated area where all of them meet for a picnic. The Minnesota Symphony, during its tour of colleges, has only once deemed it necessary to play a real symphony. The student audience whose intelligence was thus honored is that of the University of Wisconsin. The Emperoria Teachers College will have no regular spring enrollment this year. Only six courses will be offered to students who wish to enroll in April. It is not just dry cleaning to them—they PHONE 75 regularly. Women students in the department of sociology at Denver University have agreed that a man should have more room at its highest $2,000 before he marries. People who are clothes conscious choose dry cleaning as carefully as they choose their spring wardrobe. One thousand specimens were brought back by the Roswell brothers for the Field Museum after an eleven-month trip in Asia. More men have been sent to the Olympics from the University of Chicago than from any other Western University. The University of Washington fell heir to a half-million dollar art collaction and a $100,000 building to house the collection, by the donation of Horace C. Henry, a Seattle banker, Art masterworks of five nations and 137 painter are included in the collection. Allowing students to smoke during a class lecture is a new and interesting experiment being tried out by a professor at McGill University at the university of students have expressed their delight with the new arrangement. Princeton University is making a drive against roadhouses and "hot dog" stands in the college zones on campus. The sales of liquor to undergraduates.
