Chicago Tribune Writer
Pays Tribute to Wattles
Peattie Places Wattles in a Modern Class with Dickinson and Lindsev
Elia W. Peattie in a recent article in the Chicago Daily Tribune puts Willard Wattles, author of "Lanternes in Gethsemale," and instructor in the department of Rhetoric of the University of Kansas, with Emily Dickinson and Vachel Lindsay, in a class that steps aside from present day realities to express themselves in a simple and ecstatic view of life.
"He seems to have actually realized Christ as the early mystic or the medieval painters realized him, and like them he has not only gloriously accepted his discovery, but has played with his subject, as a child will play with sunbeams after having discovered the sun," says Miss Peattie.
"I inevitably the formally minded will accuse Mr. Wattles of impiety, but nothing could. I am sure, have been farther from his intention. He has used every device known to him to make Christ a veritable figure in his life. He is the familiar, the confident, the play fellow, the inspirer, the consumate revealer," according to Miss Fettie.
"The book is as primitive as Rodin
and at times as astonishing. Some
of the work is careless, faulty, and inadequate, but other poems are as curious, as appealing, and as lyric with praise as the carven angels of some fifteenth century lady chapel. One of the most representative poems is, "On a Sabbath."
the little lonely souls go by
seeking their God who lives on high
With conscious step and hat and all
is if on him they meant to call
n some sad ceremonial.
But I who am a nugget child
Who know how dying Plato smiled,
And how Confucius lessoned kings
And of the Buddha's wanderings
Find God in very usual things.

would not take from them their faith
That somehow Jesus rose from death Yet strange for me the crucified Stands almost breathing by my side Who do not think he ever died.
"Here it will be seen is something of the mystic visualization of Blake; something of the simplicity of Cowper; not a little of the arder of Christina Rosetti and a peculiarity of quintessence such as Herbert or Herrick might have shown. He approaches life and religion with the gestures and accent of a devotee and of an naubashed artist."
Advertising Work Calls For Wide-Awake Minds, Says University Grad
Garrie Buchanan, '18, Now With Kansas City Firm, Outlines (Required) Qualifications
"Develop a photographic mind, learn to ask questions, be observant of people, be progressive but not aggressive, stay wide awake, and be willing to see the other person's point of view, are essential qualifications for advertisement work," writes Marie Buchholz in answer to a vocational inquiry.
Miss Buchanan is the advertising department of Emery,Bird, Thayer, & Company, Kansas City. She began her work after being graduated from the University. Her major in college was journalism.
In her letter, Miss Buchanan says, "Every possible college course which will help to broaden in a definite sense the student's point of view should be mastered by students who are going to do journalistic work. Specialized courses on department store advertisements, sales and sales copies of proportion for making layouts are courses that are needed in the university curriculum.
"The salary of advertising it not as much at first as that of the teacher, but it is boundless in the end, if you make good."

into the balance. Thirty per cent of the young men of military age in England were physically unfit, while seventy per cent were built off of with twenty-one per cent unit.
Huge War Problem
(Continued from page 1)
"To get nearer home, in the first draft of 640,000 men, 27,142 of those accepted into the service were affected with various forms of one class of diseases, and this does not include the great multitude who were rejected when the victims of the diseases. When the second call of 1,000,000 men came we learned that 170,000 of those accepted were hampered by infections, not including those rejected. These socially neglected boys cluttered up the base hospitals and greatly impeded our military organization when the allies were crying for more man power."
THOUSANDS OF BOYS UNFIT
Doctor Crumbine said that before statistics were available from the army we all believed that Kansas would rank among the leaders in social hygiene, and we were amazed to learn that we ranked twenty-seventh or about the middle with 2.38 per cent of those accepted first for school, and only with 5.9 of one per cent afflicted which shows that the educational campaign instituted by Oregon years ago has had telling effect.
EDUCATION KILL$ EVIL
"We find, too," said Doctor Crumbine, "that Kansas profited by the educational campaign launched by the army authorities at Camp Funston because the three months following May 1, 1918, of the 10,600 men from
Kansas going into the Funston cantonement only 1.9 per cent were afflicted against the previous average of 2.38 per cent. Of the more than 12,000 men going into camp from Missouri during the three months 5.52 per cent were afflicted against the previous average of 2.38 per cent. Missouri did absolutely nothing along the education line so there you have the concrete contrast.
"It has been our neglect. We also learned to our surprise that a larger percentage of country boys were rejected than those from the city so you see we have been sadly neglecting them and that those same neglected country boys that succumbed to the dreadful attack of influenza and pneumonia.
"The war has shown us some unbelievable facts and we must discuss openly the dreadful effects of these diseases. We cleared the saloon out of Kansas, now let us clean out this evil. The government and state are helping finance an education campaign that will reach into the schools so let every loyal citizen assist. Our young men and women must go forth into social life with their eyes wide open.
"I believe that the educational campaign should be conducted by well organized public health departments, however, because the average father and mother are not capable and sufficiently informed to intelligently discuss these questions with their sons and daughters."

CORONA BULLETIN
A LETTER TO OUR PROSPECTS
33 Prospect Ave. Lawrence, Kas.
Mr. O. U. Customer
Dear Sir:
After Uncle Sam had rolled up his sleeves and thrown his hat into the ring, back in April 1917 he turned right around and ordered 3300 Corona typewriters for his Signal Corps.
When the German High Command tossed a large wet sponge into that selfsame ring, in November 1918, the Quartermaster Department was awaiting delivery of 2700 Coronas for Army Chaplains.
In the period between two events 17860 Coronas were purchased by the United States Government for Army use. Individual officers bought about 5,000 more; the Y.M.C.A. took 1327; while various Government departments, commissions, and boards, the Red Cross, K. of C., War Work Commission of the Episcopal Church, and other war work organizations accounted for over 4711.
These figures, which take no account of shipments to our Allies or purchases by essential industries etc., give an idea of why it has been difficult for the general public to obtain Coronas.
But the war is over now and no Government orders stand between you and your Corona. The factory is turning out Coronas at the rate of about one every two minutes of the working day and they are of the same high quality that made it possible for our boys in France to handle their paperwork efficiently—even while chasing the Huns out of Lorraine.
So we are mighty pleased to tell you that Corona is once more at your service—
Fold it up—
Take it with you—
Typewrite anywhere—
F. I. CARTER,
CORONA TYPEWRITER AGENT
