in connection with observance of the ocasion tomorrow.

Health Record Shows Decreased Death Rate for Past Nine Months
Insurance Company Compilee Data From Large Number of Policyholders
New York, Nov. 5. - Judged by the health record of the first nine months of 1924, it is highly probable that the death rate for the year, as a whole, will be considerably lower than for any prior year. This is indicated by the mortality experience of the more than 15,000,000 industrial policyholders of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1024
Among the white policymakers the death rate for all causes combined was but 8.2 per 1,000, which may be compared with 8.8 for the cornea and 8.7 for the lung in 1921 and 8.2 in 1921. The 1924 figure, however, reflect an even more favorable condition than did the identical rate recorded at this time in 1921. The reason is that the 1924 rate imputes an age greater than among whom the death rate is higher than at any other age, and the 1921 rate does not. This year, therefore, stands out as the most favourable in the total number of the United States and Canada.
The experience among the colored population has not been so favorable, as this year's death rate was 15 per 1,000 which is identical with that in 1923 and considerable higher than in either 1922 or 1921.
The tuberculosis death rate will decline to a new minimum in 1924. A sufficiently large drop was recorded during the first nine months of the year to assure this. The decline has been much greater, however, over among white than among colored persons. Among other favorable developments are a further decline in the mortality from typhoid fever and a pronounced drop in the death rate among white children. Other conditions included in childhood. For the latter the figures for colored women show not only a less favorable record but an actual increase as compared with this time last year.

Bauer Will Appear in Piano Concert on November 17
Recital Will Be one of the Outstanding Musical Events of Year"
—Swarthout
Harold Bauer, pianist, will play for the second attraction of the University concert course on November 17 in Robinson gymnasium.
"Without a doubt, this recital will be one of the outstanding music events of the year in Lawrenton" and "the most important event in the School of Fire Arts, Saturday."
Bauer is virtually a self made musician, according to Dean Swaroth, although he comes from one of the largest labels in New York. He is about 43 years old. At the age of four he began the study of violin and appeared in concert on that instrument when ten years old. Not long afterward he made his debut.
To Paris at Twenty-One
With the intention of conquering France with his violin, Dauro went to Paris when he was 21 years old. However, he did not realize his ambitions and was forced to secure some engagements as a pianist, as he had learned to play the piano while he studied violin.
His work in this field attracted immediate attention. He played in a number of European cities. One of his most acclaimed projects was given in Constantinople.
Has Played in Many States
Upon his return to Paris Bauer's success was assured. Since that time he has played in every country of Europe and a number of other parts of the world, including every state in the United States but two.
Tickets for the concert will go on sale Monday and may be purchased at The Boxing Club of Pine Avalon at Bell's music store or at the Round Corner drug store.
