Witty, assistant professor of education, has returned from St. Louis, where he has been conducting standardized tests dealing with various problems, in Country Day school, in St. Louis. "There is a feeling that the superior child is apt to become an intellectual vagabound, and the tests were given to see if this feeling is correct, and to advise remedial work when it is needed," said Professor Witty. Professor Wilty went on to say that tests were made to see what extent work on various subjects compared with work in public schools and schools of similar nature, and to ascertain to what extent children of superior ability were working up to capacity. The results will be made public in several weeks. London Raises Orchids for American Spenders United States London, New York and London of London's queer occupations is the production of $500 orchids for sale to American millionaires. This was revealed at the Royal Horticultural Society show here when a member of a well-known firm of orchid growers stated that the evolution of such an orchid had taken eight years of intense experimenting. It was also known as the Tagus pleip and is known as the Tagus "Kine George." Already inquiries have been received from orchid societies in the United States for ship gag装料 of some of the samples of the expert guard art. So valuable are they and so fragile, that when shipped, they must be carefully packed in cotton wool and tissue carefully sewn around the围础 of carefully selected loam.

One of his first acts since coming back to Kansas was to make his Alma Mater visit. He was a guest of the Pit Diathe Theta house during his stay. Men Do Not Wear Hats Because of High Prices A curious problem has recently presented itself at the University of Kansas. It is a conflict between an age old custom and a mannerism acquired by students in recent years. Its latest tendency is that men nod their heads in preference to tipping their hats to the women they pass on the campus. The problem has been growing each year. The underlying cause of its origin is still something of a mystery. The apparent cause is that college men have almost ceased wearing hats in the summer time. No one seems to know just why they have done this, although various hypotheses have been advanced. A few of these hypotheses are outstanding and interesting. There is one to the effect that men, vain creatures, no longer wish to hide the greased light of their locks beneath headwear. Some maintain that the hatless eye was provoked by a rumor that domes shadowed from the direct ways of the sun eventually begetten upon them. This was started by a crucise over sunny California sea const tans. Others venture the surgestion,哎 incision- tentally, that the fat of hatties head resulted from the high price of sky riding. And they didn't quit wearing hats so they wouldn't have to tip them to all the women hanging around a college town, including students, landlords, At any rate it is a recognized phenomenon that male students did not wear hats during the summer except in winter. They then, in these warm months, making a class was not much of a problem. All the student had to do when he met a girl who was give his beard a shave. He didn't know her he didn't even have to do that. According to the laws and by-laws of social etiquette this was a perfectly legal salutation. It was easy on the women as it was on the men. With the advent of winter, circumstances have changed. Men seem to have no desire to risk their tan or staccaded locks in the icy elements. They wear hats and they wear them solidly. The theory is good, but the man is in the habit of nodding his head in the approved manner. Habit assists itself; so he ducks his head and beams. The damselfish looks distressed, the man wonders why, then he remembers, he should have tipped an infernal hat. Habit is a funny animal, and to expect a couple of thousand young men to break one almost over night, is quite a bit of expectation.
