THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN

Sinclair Lewis Likes University but Refuses Trite Banalities as He Departs After His Visi
The creator of "Main Street" and Rabbitt it spent two days getting the lowdown on our campus life this week. A college man himself, Sinclair Lehrn admitted that he was on Mount Oreand to go back into touch with higher education.
"My visit to the University of Kannan is the first opportunity I have had of gaining first hand observation of college life for four years," the sandy professor said. "I am trained late Tuesday afternoon. I am interested in knowing the feelings of American college men and women. I am really more familiar with college men of some European countries, and I am campaign leaders of my own country."
"I know that the American college student is accustomed of being more of a conservative than the foreign student, but I am inclined to suspect that the American feels the necessity of being revolutionary much less politically than the German or German student. Our affairs are more stable here at home, and it is no more natural that the young people of our colleges should reflect the feeling of security and stability. In time of crisis, as in war time, there is no greater challenge in any student going anywhere than among the students of America.
"While here in Lawrence I have met many charming people and I have really had a pleasant time, I know that the accepted thing for the visiting celebrity to tell an interviewer is that he (the celebrity) has been living in Bingville for years. He has experienced of a visit to Bingville. I have had enough experience in interviewing to know the accepted, safe and sane formula. It's all bunk, of course; we reporters all realize it, but it goes well to tell the home folks that Senator So-and-so called their burglar Mr. Fulton to the second Rome with its plorious bills. It helps circulation and suits the city editor.
Former Kansas Student Establishes Newspaper
Word has been received here that John Montgomery, A. B. 25, has established a newspaper at Coral Gables, Fla., a city near Miami. The publication, of which Montgomery is the editor, is called the Miami Riviers.
The first issue of the Miami Rivera appeared about two weeks ago when it published a report on Coral Gabbe. It was an eight page paper and contained the latest news of the city. As yet it is a weekly, but it has been able to be able to publish the paper daily.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Montgomery has received hearty encouragement from the business men of Coral Gables. The mayor has designated it as the official city paper.
A short but important meeting of the Labette county club will be held in room 103 Green hall Friday evening at 7:00 p. m.

There will be an important meeting of all W. S. G. A. group leaders and all former group leaders Monday afternoon at 4:30 in the women's rest room in central Administration building - Jacqueline St.
Prof. Thos. J. Smart will speak to the Student Forum at the Unitarian Church Sunday morning at 10 a.m. on Wednesday. Everyone interested is invited.
There will be an initiation of new member in the Women's Athletic Association Wednesday, Feb. 17. All women who have been in the University a semester and have a "C" average and have earned 125 points should leave their names at the women's athletic office for Laura Gilden.
All members of the national honorary forcee fraternity, P.I. Kappa Delta, who are on the campus should hand in their name and address to me at the earliest possible moment for the purpose of obtaining names of persons competent for judging high school debate. Proof: E. C. Bucher.
All members of Pi Kappa Delta fraternity are asked to report to me at their earlily convenience.—Prof. E. C. Buehler.
Have you and Nat Waffles at the Broad View Inn? "They are delicious." If you wish you may have a private dining room, the electric iron and all the franks you take you own. Call 617 for reservations).
"I am constantly asked by reporters to give my opinion on all the latest questions, and it takes me some time to familiarize myself with matters of general interest, so I find myself utterly devoid of the kind of thing which the reporter and his city editor desire.
"My two days in Lawrence have not given me sufficient time to really know either your town or the University, but you can say this: I like Lawrence and the University of Kansas so well that I will refrain from taking office duties while hires are appropriate on the occasion of my departure.
"I spent the afternoon with a group of young men who are behind the "Dove," I liked these young men very much, and I heartily approve of the students' tempting to do at the University. I have not yet had an opportunity of reading their publication, but 1 am not willing to condemn it merely because it is "destructive," and some of the other things which I have heard it called.
"I do not expect the average college student to turn out well throughout, mature writing, for the very good writer. The most important element is n.d. itself myself. Such independent student publications as the Dove, which give the contributors an opportunity for original expression, are difficult worth in the student's education.
"I wish I know more about Kansas writers; William Allen White happens to be about the only one whom I know personally. I visited the Whites last week, and had a very interesting visit."
"The journalism of this part of the country does not strike me as being very different from that of any other part of the country, and the papers of Kansas City are not greatly different from those of any other city of Kansas. What is it on a truck is it on? Well, good-bye, I am sorry I had nothing to tell you."
There were visitors in the anomaly department. A man approached the student and asked if he was working and damned; "Where in Hell do you intend to?"
practice medicine;*
But she answered him;*
"I don't intend to practice medicine there."

OR the hardy, rough and ready pioneers of the plains, buffalo steak cooked over an open wood fire was a regular breakfast ration. It was "filling". So too, was the covered wagon and the stage coach a means of "getting there"—but sometimes the Indians made that impossible!
In this fast-moving age, the demand is more and more for comfort, convenience, dispatch. Iced orange juice has supplanted buffalo steak on the breakfast menu. Modern-to-the-minute motor coaches—luxurious parlers on rubber-cushioned wheels—have left the slow and uncomfortable vehicles in the background. Such is the service of The Inter State Stage Lines Company—a recognized public utility ready and anxious to serve and serve well.
