Fowler Shops Was Gift From George A. Fowler
Contains Engineering Laboratories and University Light And Power Plants
Fowler Shops was finished in 1899, at a cost of $21,000, and the gift of Mr. George A. Fowler, of Kansas City, Mo., as a memorial to his father.
It is devoted to the mechanical and technical instruction of the School of Engineering, and to the electric light and power plants of the University.
The present equipment of Fowler Shops represents about $20,000, appropriated by the legislature. The building is of native stone, 224 feet long by 50 feet wide, two stories high, with an attic and a handsome tower. It includes 22,000 square feet of floor space for laboratory purposes and contains boiler and engine rooms equipped and adapted for boiler and engine testing, with generators aggregating 2,000 horse power, for light and power for the University buildings.
The building was damaged by fire of undetermined origin May 9, 1918, and a loss then estimated at $30,000 occurred. The building was repaired soon after in order to have it ready for use in the instruction of the vocational section of the army.

The federal government should bear part of the expense of flood protection in Kansas, as a means of preventing millions of dollars loss annually and for the purpose of giving employment to returning soldiers. This is the opinion of H. A. Rite, a professor of engineering at the University of Kansas and secretary of the State Water Commission.
Team Work To Make Kansas Rivers Behave
K. U. Engineer Would Have Uncle Sam Help in Flood Protection
"Flood protection along Kansas rivers such as the Marais des Cygnes, the Kaw, Republic, Blue, Solomon, Smoky and other streams means flood protection for Missouri," said Professor Rice, "and for that reason should be supported by the federal government as well as by Kansas. The tentative plan for flood control in Kansas is to build reservoirs to impound flood waters and then gradually empty the reservoirs in low water periods. This plan is only in the 'praes' of the state because it will have to be made and much preliminary work done before it can be said just how far it may be feasible. Pennsylvania has finished similar preliminary work to prevent floods in the Pittsburgh district and along the Ohio and now proposes to build seventeen huge
reservoirs to impound flood waters if the federal government will aid."
Women Ask Legislature For Fair School Levy

Miss Winston, who responded to a toast at the luncheon, is state president* of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae.

Plymouth Jottings
After the Kansan church notice had gone to press last week it was decided to consummate at once an arrangement which had been pending for some weeks. By it Plymouth Church and the First Presbyterian Church are merging their Sunday evening services. Both churches have agreed to this experiment very heartily. Is it not a significant sign of the times that such an agreement can be so easily reached right in the heart of the busy season of the year? It shows how close we are to one another denominatively. Last Sunday evening Dr. Bleck preached a splendid sermon in Plymouth pulpit. Next Sunday evening it will be my privilege to preach in the Presbyterian pulpit. When the lights are out at one of the churches, try the other! They are only a stone's throw apart.
Did you miss the Mixer last week at Plymouth House? Hard luck! We had so good a time that we almost forgot to go home. Don't miss the next one.
Did you know that the state Y. P. S. C. E. convention was to be held in Lawrence this year? If you have been an active endeavorer at home, you will want to get into trim so as to help receive that home delegation with proper enthusiasm.
Yours very cordially,
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.

Moths and Butterflies

scenes. They are safe so far as the student council is concerned. Could any one, even the crabs on the W. S. G. A. expect them to brave the dark alone and to go home by themselves? After the interrupting element has dispersed, the moths give a sigh of relief. Generally all that can be heard is the busy scratching of pens, gliding swiftly over page after page of note paper, or the rapid turning of leaves.
Last night, however, the peace of the faithful was disturbed. From behind tumbled heap of books, oblivious to all they or the world in general might contain, he slept. Perhaps he imagined he was a horse or something of the kind for truly he was in one of the stalls. He slept about fifteen minutes, then he began to snore. The others were disturbed by this unusual outburst but no one disturbed the senance. Then came the nightmare. Groan, piteous and pleading issued
forth, accompanied by deep sighs.
Finally the librarian had the heart to wake the sufferer and to tell him that he studied long enough for one night.
The lights blink, and all the moths close their books and go to their rooms to continue. Early morning find them in the library again, buried in their books, but the butterflies await for the appearance of the lights at night before they doll up and come to begin their "study."
