FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 1924 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Service to School Fraternities' Aim, Says S.A. Lindauer Delta Chi National Inspector Reviews General Greek Situation on Campus Sampson A. Lindsay, national in speeched officer of the Delta Chraternity, who is on an extensive tour of the United States and Canada, spent Tuesday at the Chapel on Monday a hundred hours in a house chapter on Louisiana street. When interviewed on the subject of fraternities on the campus, Mr. Lindauer encouraged the fact that smooth services to its members, to theiversity, and' to the State, is the goal of every worthwhile fraternity, as it is of every good citizen "The earliest college fraternities in "The earliest callers of New England states were prone to overemphasis of warfare of the universities, and of the student bodies, and of overemphasis false and artificial values which led inevitable bishness and un-American group trivialism," said Mr. Landauer. In a result, they soon found themselves in deep water, and meeting with no little general interest in only the two decades that followed, rid themselves of antisocial values, and unjust criticism, they have justified their certies, and asserted them really construed them as the university world Statemen of inter-framerity circles such as Dean Clark of Illinois, largely responsible for this movement toward recognition. organization Should Strive for Unity "Paternalites and sororities should strive for unity," continued Mr. Indauer. "They should work together for the betterment of their university and the body as a whole, the student body as a whole, the undemocratic, and un-American. A fraternity man should not consider himself in virtue, as superior of a non-frauen nun. Such is the many undergraduates. Every fraternity should be able to bring out the best qualities of an individual, and promote school aspirin to the highest degree." Large Houses Not Essential Large hospitals cover the campus, and the fraternity and security houses. Mr. Lindauer expressed the opinion that commodious and group houses were not essential for group sermoning, the endearment, and high sense is essential in trying to live down this unjust criticism. The college graduate, said, is in a much better place to see the good in fraternities but in fraternities we are expelled with a sense of the importance and lasting values of fraternity life, as the fact that promising leaders of the inter-fraternity art are striving to improve fraternitiescritic: "the fraternities conclusively that outstanding good prevails in these groups, or they could not exist Mr. Lindauer served as a lieutenant in the navy during the World War. At the close of the war he was chosen by friends of Herbert Hoover as pre-convention manager for Mr. Hoover. Mr. Lindauer went to the right-hand man for Mr. Hoover for a number of years. He is well known for national political and symbolic circles, being a personal friend of William G. McAdoo, William Hearst, and also of the late Woodrow Wilson.

The Tailored Suit of this Spring Season Should be a part of every woman's wardrobe if she is dressed in keeping with the times. The tailoring, the lines, the material must be right. We have taken great care to this. The prices, $29.75 to $75.00 are most reasonable. That is just the way some folks shop. They hit the buying trail, stray from it a bit, and before they are aware of the fact, they are lost—wandering in a maze of courses —gradually growing weier and weierer—and finally get back home mentally and physically tuckered out without having accomplished much. Up-to-date shoppers make up their minds what they are going to buy before they leave the house. They know exactly what they want, how much they want to pay, and just where they will find the right goods at the right prices. To them shopping is a pleasure. These modern shoppers read the Kansan advertisements carefully and regularly. They find that the advertisements save them steps, bother, trouble and time. Let The Daily Kansan advertisements guide you. That's their job.
