BISHOP QUAYLE AT VESPERS
Noted Minister Spoke to a Large Audience.
Bishop W. A. Quayle spoke to an overerowed chapel Sunday afternoon at the regular vesper service. His talk was directed upon the quistion, "Why Am What I Am?" He discussed four possible answers for this question.
The first answer was, because of circumstances. Dr. Quayte admitted that circumstances have a great deal to do with shaping men's lives, but insisted that a man can be bigger than his environment.
By the influence of personalities other than oneself, was the second suggested answer. "Yes," said the bishop, "other intellects such as Browning, for instance do help shape our lives, but we have no excuse for becoming misshapen through them."
"I am what I am through my own grace," the bishop gave as the answer of the self-made man. He expressed great admiration for the self-made man, but asked "if all you are is from your own grace, how much do you really amount to, after all?"
"A life that is fresh and sweet is so because it reflects God," continued the bishop. "Our mentality and our 'physicality' (one of his self-coined words) are dependent upon God and it is only through God that we are permitted to exercise our own grace. Hence, it naturally follows that we are what we are by the grace of God."

TALES OF THE TRIP.
Basket-Ball Men Played Flirt, 'Tis Said.
The damsel seemed to appreciate the attention that was being bestowed upon her, but after a while Woodward tired of his task of vending the soft words and took a comfortable seat in the lobby. Within a short time his day-dream was disturbed by
Since the return of the basketball team from its tour the players have spent considerable time telling "tales" on each other. One of the best involves Woodward. It seems that during the visits at the different towns where the games were played "Woodie" acted the role of "fusser" more or less; generally more. While at Des Moines the team stayed at the Ellet hotel and the ex-captain spent considerable of his leisure time saying "Case" words, which he has learned during the past 23 years to the pretty little blonde who reigned over the cigar counter.
the harsh voice of the bell hop "Call for Mistah Woodward," came the cry and the Kansan was delighted to receive a large package.
With nervous fingers he tore it open and found a beautiful bunch of violets and roses. A card bearing the inscription, "With Love From Anna," was attached to the bouquet.
(Note—The flowers were made of paper and Anna was the cigar girl.)
TO CONSERVE RESOURCES
Professor Haworth Thinks Sub object Demands Study.
To illustrate concretely, Professor Haworth said that comparatively little that was really new in agriculture had been discovered in recent years and that the same was true in regard to animal husbandry. He urged that some scientific mind ought to be able to find a way to use the light and energy of the sun with less waste. When the power of the sun may be stored up by the humblest citizen, then the trusts will have less power to regulate the standard of living, he argued.
A need for a great invention to accomplish a real conservation of resources was presented by Professor E. Haworth in his speech in chapel this morning. He feels that within the last five or ten years very few discoveries have been made by which mankind can more successfully cope with nature. He says marvelous advancement has been made within a half century, but believes that in many lines men are losing interest and are failing to bring forth inventions which will benefit the world.
DISCOVER NEW METHODS
Miss Alice McGill, a student in the College, has been obliged to give up school on account of ill health. She left for her home in Hill City, Monday.
College Graduates Are Needed in Industrial Plants.
A Cleveland packer explained a new process of curing meat recently to a convention of packers. With electricity, he said, he could do in from three to twenty-five days what, under the old salt-pickle system, takes from twenty-five to one hundred and five days. The discovery came about in this way, says Colliers Weekly:
About ten years ago a man was testing out an electric motor, using a vat of salt and water as a makeshift rheostat. One of the electrodes in that vat was weighted down with a brick which, after the test, crumbled in his hand like dry cake. The electricity had driven the salt particles into and through the brick. As he was interested in the packing business, the experimenter wondered if electricity couldn't drive salt into meat. He tried it, and a great meat-curing plant has been erected in Cleveland.
As a sidelight on this packer's enterprise, this achievement is notable, but it is only one result of a policy he adopted years ago of taking into his plant every year two or three of the brightest young graduates of colleges and technical institutes he can get and turning them loose, to do what they please, largely, and to make suggestions for the improvement of process. It was one of these men, now superintendent, who increased the hog-killing capacity of the plant from about five hundred to more than seven hundred a day by eliminating the swinging motion when a hog's leg is hooked and the creature is yanked up to have its throat eut.
GAVE MONEY TO GLEE CLUB Mandolin Club
Mandolin Club Lost Membership in Student Enterprise.
At a meeting of the members of the associated student enterprise in Green hall yesterday, it was decided that on account of its failure to participate in the student enterprises this year, the Mandolin club should be dropped from membership for one year.
E. E. Brown, treasurer of the association, was instructed to transfer the Mandolin club's share of money to the Glee club on condition that the latter organization give more concerts out of town and one here to take the place of that which should have been given by the Mandolin club.
The tennis club petitioned the association for a share of the receipts, but was referred to the Athletic association. The tennis men did, however, obtain an appropriation for grading their courts on MeCook.
Prisoners Treated Well
Prof. Bailey of the department of chemistry, has an article in the last bi-ennial report of the state board of health on "Sanitation in Our State Prisons." Prof. Bailey tested the air in the mines and investigated the food and clothing provided for the prisoners, before writing the article. The report was ordered by Governor Hoch, who wished to discover what truth lay in the statements of Kate Barnard, of Oklahoma, who declared that prisoners from her state were mistreated in Kansas.
INITIATION MARCH 18.
Six New Phi Beta Kappas Will Respond to Toasts.
The initiation of the new members of the Pi Beta Kappa society will be held Friday evening, March 18. Owing to the crowded program of University events for the next two weeks, which includes the annual Bible institute and the meeting of the high school teachers of the state it was impossible to fix an earlier date for the initiation.
The formal acceptance of new members by the Phi Beta Kappa is a University event, not a socia one and for that reason is no postponed until after Lent. Six of the new members of the society will be asked to respond to toasts, when the initiation is held
Players Have High Grades.
While speaking of Phi Beta Kappa Sigma Xi and other organizations of high academic standing, kindly look over the eligibility list of the 'Varsity basket-ball squad. Not a man flunked, not a man was conditioned, among ten men.
Among the term grades for the men who took the trip with the team there are as many "1's" as there are "2's" and "3's" together. One of the men, "Shorty Long," has all "1's" for this term, and in his whole University career he has twenty-four, '1's' and six "2's" from thirty subjects.
It Will Pay You to Wait.
"I haven't time to even think of an ad, let alone writing any. All I can do today is to look over the acknowledgement of the jewelry orders I have placed within the last few weeks. Here I have word saying that all my orders are placed and that they all will be shipped soon." This is the answer that Broer Gustafson gave our business manager when he went in yesterday to get the copy for the customary add of Gustafson, the College Jeweler, at 911 Massachusetts street.
He then showed our business manager a model of a large K fob he is having especially made for the students. The K is made of polished brass. It is a block letter about two inches square. When you get one of these on a black silk or a leather fob it will be the swelled thing that you have ever laid your eyes on. Now listen here. Broer has not ordered a very large supply of these on the first order. However he will have enough to fill many orders. But to avoid getting left out, you want to watch when he gets the order in and be one of the first people to appear on the Hill with one of those nifty fobs.
Besides these fobs he is getting in a complete new line of K, U jewelry. Anything you might want in that line we will have new. Be sure and wait until you see the line at Gustafson's, the College jeweler. Adv
