A WOMAN'S WHY
Was there ever anything half so disconcerting as a woman's why? It pops up at strange and unheard-place without a ghost of a reason and there it stands, silly, absurd, ridiculous, but unanswerable.
Without the slightest provocation it appears and refuses to be dispensed with. It has not even the slightest sign of good breeding, for it is always appearing at places where it is not allowed to do so, or to be. It stalks in like a villan and then stands there, innocently unaware of all the damage it has created.
Oh, curses upon a woman's "Why!"—Mannalite.
Senior President Asks Members To Suggest Changes In K.U.Rules
Eight Subjects to be Discussed Snap and Slave Courses Among Number
Letters have been sent to all seniors in the University by Herman Hangen, senior president, asking them to be at a meeting in Room 110, Fraser, at 4:30 o'clock Wednesday, to consult with the College and report the opinion of the class to the College administrative officers.
A committee of seniors has been working on what they consider the most widely discussed propositions of University life. They have suggested to the seniors some subjects and have asked them to form a definite opinion before the meeting to be held Wednesday.
Among the subjects suggested are:
Group Requirements. Is filling six groups too many, or should there be more?
Are there too many major requirements?
Requirements of A, B and C' for graduation, too many or not enough?
Two vacant hours in morning for organization meetings. College credit for some student activities.
Need for more professional courses. What ones?
Finding graduates employment. Snap and slave courses, are there
Snap and slave courses, are there any of either and should there be? "The senior class has been asked to consider the changes that are needed the worst in the college," said Mr. Hangen this morning. "This has been done because we have been through the full four years and should have considered the advantages than the underclass men. I hope that every senior will consider the points that have been presented to them in the letter and will be ready to express some opinion on the questions at the meeting."
K.U. Miners Learn Trade By Studying Minerals At Baxter Springs, Kan.
University Students Assist in Organizing School, Which Opened Monday
"The secondary mining schools at Baxter Springs started Monday night," said Prof A. C. Terrill who has just returned from assisting in opening the school. "It is open to miners who work during the day and wish to go to school at night to learn more about their vocation.
CLASSES HELD AT NIGHT
The institution receives support under the Smith-Hughes law, Physics, mineralogy, chemistry, and all practical mining subjects are to be offered.
The courses will be short, each class meeting one hour a night two nights for a limited time. The chemistry will be confiend to the analysis of lead and zinc ores of that mining field. The mineralogy will cover litter besides a study of the local minerals.
The physics course will be taught by Mr. O. M. Rhine, a graduate of the University who is superintendent of public schools at Baxter Springs. The equipment used both in the chemie and physics courses was what was sent up from Weir City when the Kansas State School of Mines and Metallurgy there was discontinued. In the physics course, electricity will be especially emphasized.
A number of K.U. students are assisting in the organizing of the school. Edward Mason left here week before last to work in the mines near Baxter Springs and is assisting in the teaching and in the assembling of equipment. R. H. Thomas and Harry Abbey, Jr., who are working in concentration mills there, are also assisting him. Arthur S. Johnson and R. P. Kerchoh, who teach chemistry, Mr. Johnson will be one of the chemistry teachers after June 15. Louis Tucker and F. D. Holland will spend the summer there, working in the mines and attending the secondary mining school. F. D. Kinkel and one or two others may also go from the department of mining here.
PATRIOTISM
What is patriotism? Is it a narrow affection for the spot where a man was born? Are the very clods where we tread entitled to this ardent proference because they are greener? No, sir; this is not the character of the virtue, and it soars higher for its object. . . . is thus we okay here. But as we see, not the array of force and terror, but the venerable image of our country's honor. Every good citizen makes that honor his own, and cherishes it not only as precious, but as sacred.—Fisher Ames in S. C. Monitor.
