Extension Division Students Number Eighteen Hundred Most of Persons Enrolled Are Seeking Credit; Majority Live in State
In addition to the 4523 resident students in Lawrence the University serves between 1700 and 1800 persons through its correspondence bureau. Last year the enrollment included persons from 34 states and four foreign countries. A large majority of the campus lived in Kansas, however.
"Most of the persons enrolled in correspondence work are taking it for credit," Miss Harriet Stevenson, secretary of the bureau of research at U.S. News, said it is for the cultural value alone. Many persons who were unable to finish their high school education are completing it in this way and will receive a high school diploma.
English Courses Popular
English courses are among those most frequently taken, according to Miss Stevenson. Education courses are also popular since many of the persons enrolled are teachers who are working on their degrees and who attend the University during the summer session.
A course consists of a number of assignments, eight lessons for each credit hour. The courses do not have to be completed in any given time and the period over which the course extends depends upon the amount of time which the instructor is able to spend on it. The work sent in regularly, Miss Stevenson said, although it is taken much longer than residence work.
One Student Running Cafe
The courses may be carried simultaneously. It has been found that the short courses are more satisfactory that the long ones since the work is dulled slowly and it is better to continue extending it more long a period.
One Student Running Cafe
"It is really inspirational to know of the people who, working under severe conditions, can obtain an education." Miss Stevenson said in speaking of the work being done. "One young man wrote apologging for not returning his lessons more promptly but explained by sayings like 'I am working in which he worked from 6 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock at night.'"
Four Dollars for Each Hour
The cost of correspondence work is $4 a credit hour. If an individual wishes to take work throughout the week, however, the charge is $16 for residents of Kansas and $20 for residents of Minnesota.
There are at present 200 courses offered by correspondence. A new threelight course for junior and senior in the department of sociology has recently been added. A five-hour geology course has been reorganised to include a more comprehensive course, corresponding to the geology courses for resident students.
"Sixty hours of correspondence word are accepted by the College towards a degree. It is reasonable that a person who works in the word correspondence." Miss Stevenson said.
Manuscript Deadline Se+
Material for Oread Magazine Is Being Received
The deadline for manuscripts for the next issue of the Orend magazine which is to appear the latter part of next month was set for March 10 at a meeting of the editorial board last week. Several manuscripts of short stories, humorous essays, and book reviews have already been handed in. "We are anxious to make the cover of this book as large as possible that a wide variety of material will be handed in," said Grace Young, A. R. 25, editor of the magazine.

This publication also offers $25 for any piece of prose and $15 for any piece of poetry that it reprints. All materials are made payable to the money direct to the author.

"The series of programs and events which are given during commencement week differ from anything else that is given during the school year, and they are becoming more and more attractive to the alumni, as well as to the students in school at the present time," said Curtis L. Alumni Association, "the chancellor's reception and alumni dance held last spring during commencement week was one of the most enjoyable events of the entire year. It was held in the rotunda of Administration building, where it will be held again this year."

This giant hydroelectric and weigh 750 tons and consists of a vertical shaft hydroelectric unit attached to an electric generator delivering $21,000$ kilowatts in 12 hours.
Bigger Generators Cheaper Electricity
A 70,000 horsepower hydro-electric unit recently installed at Niagara Falls utilizes the same amount of water as seven former 5,000-horsepower units, yet does the work of fourteen such units. And it saves 700,000 tons of coal yearly for the nation.
And wherever electricity has blazed its trail—in towns, cities, industrial centers, and rural communities—comfort and progress have come to stay.
Generating and distributing electricity concern the technical student. But electricity's application in the betterment of industry, the professions, and home life concerns every educated person. Cheep electricity means many startling achievements today, but countless and unbelievable possibilities tomorrow.
