Those who pore over the Sour Owl pages, Plain Tales columns of the Kauai, and the other humorous publications of the campus, will be interested in adding to their stock of traditional jokes of the University.
Students of Past Years Played Their Share of Pranks--Stories Become Traditions on Campus
Dr. C. F. Robinson, for whom the gymnastium was named, related several of the most autenthetic jokes of the period to the experiences of the early period of K. U.
"Jokes in which skeletons are made to play a prominent part have always been great favorites with students," he tells us. The School of Medicine still finds amusement in such "bony" pranks, according to one feminine student who not only loves to laugh in the room, in the museum, with her pockered filles with various small bits of the human anatomy.
"Soon after the first Greek letter society was established here, there was a certain society known as the *Trojan* Society. It added new ties, and their name and activi-
On the cessation of the first commencement of the University, hold in an unfinished building, which had a round hole about eight feet across in the center of the ceiling, in the playground, where there slowly descended from the dark hole in the ceiling, a gharly grinding skeleton, shaking his clattering bones and exercising a sort of ghost dance just over the heads of the students. This apparition wore out quickly, as the legend "Prev"—only this and nothing more." The wily student, or students, who invented this surprising event were never identified, but Dr. Robinson hints that a certain student then living in Kansas City gave far more information on the subject.
The Kansas Editions who were convening at Topeka Friday and Saturday had a banquet Saturday night attended by the university wore Prof. and Mrs. L. N. Flint, Prof. and Mrs. W. A. M. Diff., Prof. and Ivan Benoon, Dr. Helen O. Mahin, Kim Grave, Carl Coffelt and Walter Graves.
Chancellor E. H. Lindley was a guest at a reception and dance given in his honor Friday night at the Jack o' Lantern by the Kansas Alumni Association of Greater Kansas City. Chancellor Lindley was a guest at Mission Hills by Mr. M., R. J. DeLano, Mr. and Mrs J. C. Nichols and Mayor and Mrs Beach were present.
The local organization of P. E. O. will give a tea this afternoon at the home of Chancellor and Mrs. E. H. Lindley for the sons and daughters of P. E. O.'s of chapters throughout the state. The receiving rooms will be decorated with flowers, roses and Mrs. Lindley and Mrs. George L. Kreek will receive.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
ties remained secret, until after a certain professor gave a dinner for them and disclosed by his act, and that he then used the Catcher. They turned to new pranks after the cause of their foundation was discovered, and concentrated their attention on the women being presented in Lawrence with great vigor.

Alpha Delta Pi announces pledging of Jane Louise Thatcher, c'27 of Turon, Kan.
One of the professors who signed the booklet had a few bottles of homemade wine for us to visit. The professor a few evenings later and spent a delightful time playing noisy pieces on the piano, roaring college songs, the music of her husband. The professor and his wife were surprised at the visit of these young men, who had never called before, and especially at their rather long stay.
"The next morning, it was discovered that the cellar had been entered, the wine taken, and the following note left in its place:
"Dear Professor—I-mussch as you have signed the pledge, and I will be going to work with yourself, so in it, nor give it away, that would be abetting the great evil, we have concluded to take it, and thus relieve you from all temp.
Crusaders"
Yours truly.
According to Dr. Robinson, although the professor never mentioned his loss, and the boys told the tale until it became a well-known story, just as other such stories have become public property.
"Hands Up" Is Real, K. U. Students Find
"Hands Up," said a modern version of "Gyp the Blood" to four Jawahiers in a sedat at Eighteenth and Minnesota streets, in Kansas City, at an early hour Monday morning.
To the astonished Jayhawkers, the air seemed full of swoop-off shotguns and revellers of elephant propo-
sers. "Get out," said a nervous voice, emphasizing his meaning by waving a shotgun. The Jayhawkers hastated. "They can kill me first," said a reverent man, who gave a dollar off of me." He was broke.
Another occupant started for the door, picking up an obstructing object on the seat. "Watch out, gang," she said. "We're going to go shot." Four guns swung toward the denison of O'Mead, who shrieled, "It's only a violin case," expecting meanwhile to notice darkness inside. A man's sigh of relief went up.
The four aydhawkers stepped out and reached for the place they had seen Saturn last. All except one who was there, the gunman, and was unable to withdraw "I, watch out," warned a gunman, "he's got a gut." The artillery focus on the unhunky one. Under its something influence he rescued his

"Mister," sighed the student, can I have that picture of my girl off of this watch?" The students were searched and the ear thoroughly gone over. Acting as the theory that they were the victims of a law, one of the victims explained that they were K. U. students. One of the hard citizens answered that they looked exactly like the four desperate安全 crackers they were after. The chaperones were the fumy security guard Martin said. "Everyone knows that Kansas City has the best police that money can buy."

Whether it's a leaky closet tank or an entire plumbing system, call upon us.
Half a dozen nations which normally receive their wheat supply from Russia are now forced to buy in the United States, Canada and Australia. These countries produce about 30 million tons of wheat. This year she is buying in the open market. Rupinovich, head of the Russian trade delegation in London, defended the lack of international measure in view of what may happen in the next three months.
