Foreign Students From 21 Nations Enrolled in K. U
Purpose of Cosmopolitan Club Is to Acquaint Members With Problems
Twenty-one different nationalities are represented in the Cosmopolitan Club here, which is only a part of a national organization that also includes abbreviated chapter in various parts of the country. Foreign students now enrolled in the University have come to Kansu from all parts of the country. Hawaii, Philippine Islands, Russia, China, Japan, France, Germany, Norway, India, South America, South Africa, Mexico, Austria, Russia, Serbia, Burma, Alaska and Panama.
The Association of Cosmopolitan Clubs of Universities and Colleges of America, has summed its motto in the words, "Above All Nations is Humanity." The first club was founded by a group of college students, which was established here in 1920
District conventions are held in alternate years and the fifth one convened at Lawrence during the last Christmas vacation. David Oigo, a member of the local club, is national vice-president.
All Cosmopolitan Clubs carry on a great many activities. Each group is encouraged to be born student as soon as possible from the registrar and help these persons to adjust themselves to life on a new campus, which is often life in a new city.
Throughout the year the clubs also endeavor to acquaint their members with the ideals and practices of other lands and with the problems of international relations. Some groups have a weekly lunchroom in which they discuss other matters. Others conduct study groups on international relations. All have parties, pienies and stunt nights at which representatives of many nations participate in the entertainment. Plays, games or entertainments which are open to the campers and staff are presented often and illustrate life in other countries.
Boyce Speaks Over Radio
Water Should Be Purified, Says Engineering Professor
"Since approximately 45.5 per cent of the population of the state live in cities having a water supply of water for public use has become of general interest," said Prof. Earnest Boyce, of the Water Institute, in a talk over the radio last night.
"Under legislative authority, the State Board of Health formulated rules requiring routine inspection of water supplies by the Sanitary Engineering Division, and the bacterial and fungal tests on their three doses by the water laboratory.
"Since the engineer for the State Board of Health is by statute appointed from the civil engineering field, he has always been located at the university, it followed that this work was closely associated with the work."
In "operation," said Professor Boyce, "the regulations divide water supplies into surface water and ground water. Since surface waters are treated, a more frequent checking of the quality is necessary than in the case of ground waters. Simultaneously, there is a bacteriological analysis weekly and a field test is made of the purification works once a year."
New Invention Lessens Danger of Monoxide Gas
(Date: April 2013)
Kitananning, In. March 13—Danger of illnesses and possible death from monoxide gas poisoning will soon be practically eliminated, according to J. M. Well, inventor of a monoxide gas purifier.
The device, designed for use on automobiles, attaches to the exhaust behind the muffler and renders the discharged gases practically harmless by injecting oxygen into the fumes, Wolf said.
Tests of the "oxygenator" have been used on gunnes pigeon. One pig died within seven minutes when the purifier was not used. Two others were only slightly dizzy after the same time when the device was used.
Woll does not contend, however that the purifier will work successfully in closed spaces where fresh air is not available.

Movie Subtitles May Be Lights Instead of Words
United States
New York, March 12—"Thought Light" may take the place of subplots in motion pictures, it is believed by those now conducting experiments along this line in connection with a new computer program developed for the Marto-Groth-Winver studios here.
The idea of transmitting thoughts from a picture screen by means of light instead of words was suggested in 1849 by a computer compass. The experiment will be tried with a new film in the near future, it was said.
Noted Explorer Will Go to Mongolian Desert on "Early Man" Hunt
Roy Chapman Andrews to Leave Kalgan April 15 With Crew of Forty Men
(United Press)
(United Press)
Providence, R. E., March 12—Boy
Chapman Andrews has gone "mnn
hunting" again.
The famed explorer, who has made the dead past speak to the living present, is enroute to the far East where, in the Mongolian Desert, he hopes to find traces of primitive man earlier than any now known.
Before his departure, Andrews came here to receive the honorary degree of doctor of science conferred upon him by Brown University, an evidence, he audited plans for his fortnight expedition into the Orient.
Already, the caravan that will be his movable base in Mongolia next summer has left Kaligan, 150 miles from Peking. It is moving the supplies 700 miles west to await the supplies of Andrews. The caravan is carrying food, implements, and 4000 gallons of gasoline for the caravan's journey. At least eight automobiles and 150 camels will be used for transportation.
Andrews expects to arrive in Shanghai on March 22. He will proceed immediately to Peking. On April 15, he will leave Kalgan with 40 men from Tashkent, where the others are trained natives who have been with Andrews before.
The expedition will remain in the desert five months. Operation will begin April 15 and end Sept. 15. The scientists will turn their attention first to green fossil deposits that were discovered last year but not invented.
"The work there," the explorer, "is much more difficult than similar work in Europe, for in Europe early man was concentrated in caves while in Mongolia his relics must be found in the open.
"The thing to do is to watch carefully for evidence of ancient lake basins, for primitive man was a lake
shore dweller. The ancient lake basins are drowned in sand. This year the expedition will concentrate on the primitive human side.
"If evidence is found of cultures equivalent to those of early periods in Europe, the discovery will be of interest." For example, the "hypothesis of a migration."
Fever Cause Ascertained
Army Doctors Discover Source of Serious Disease
Chicago, March 12—Sixty-four men who have submitted themselves as subjects to artificial inoculation by mosquito bites have enabled army medical authorities to isolate the tropical disease known as dengue fever. To the untutored it may be a revelation in this connection to learn that the disease has been confused with yellow fever before secrecy one that would attract a coward or a shirk. The highest tribute of appreciation and admiration should be paid to the heroism of this courteous group of soldiers, according to offi-
As a result of the experiments it has been conclusively shown by Drs. J. F. Siler, M. W. Hall and A. P. Hitchens in a report in the proceedings of the hospital to the Bloedel and Mediene that dengue fever is transmitted by a mosquito known as Aedes Egypti. The investigators found that uninfected insects can pick up the virus causing the disease from the patient only during the first three days after its outbreak the first six to eighten hours before it appears.
Once the mosquito becomes infected it was ascertained that it is capable of infecting humans during the rest of its existence. The infection, however, is not passed on as an inheritance to the next generation of insects.
