BUSINESS EDUCATORS CONFER—Dean James R. Surface, right, of the School of Business, talks with Dr. Solomon S. Huebner, professor emeritus of commerce and insurance at the University of Pennsylvania, following Dr. Huebner's speech on "Human Life Values" Friday.
Run the Family Like a Business, Huebner Says
A top insurance authority told a group of students and insurance men Friday that the family is man's first and most important business and should be run as a business.
Dr. Solomon S. Huebner, professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania, in giving the first of a series of lectures here on life insurance, said:
"The purpose of life insurance is to take the sting out of death economically."
Dr. Huebner explained his "Human Life Values" theory which he said meant value to others. He listed six factors of Human Life Value: character, good health, willingness to work, education and training, creative ability and the patience and fortitude to translate dream into reality.

He said that Human Life Value could be lost through death, total and permanent disablement and compulsory retirement.
"This theory of Human Life Values puts the emphasis on the value of the human being and not on the material accumulation of wealth," said Dr. Huebner.

Dr. Huebner, who is credited with instituting the teaching of life insurance in college, said he was not opposed to a compulsory minimum of life insurance for everyone. He said life insurance should be taught in some degree in the churches for the layman.

The title of a demonstration speech, "The Making of Chernozem Cecils," brought a puzzled look to members of a Speech I class recently.
Speeches Show Making of Mud Pies, Potato Chip Dip
To the amusement of his fellow students, the speaker gave a recipe which he followed closely for the making of mud pies.
A section of the prescribed curriculum for Speech I included explaining "how-to-do" something to an audience. This is the chance for students to use imagination, originality, humor, and wit in their speeches. There is only a slight chance of repetition in subject and the chosen topic appeal to everyone.
Meeting Is Friday For 125 Engineers
Students seem to like the audience-participation speeches, such as a demonstration on how to make pizza, or a little more appetizing one at a recent 8 o'clock class, which produced potato chip dip, resulting in a well-fed class.
About 125 engineers will attend a Structural Engineering Conference on the campus Friday. They will discuss designing with reinforced concrete and structural steel.
Presiding at the morning and afternoon sessions, respectively, will be G. W. Bradshaw, professor of civil engineering, and Kenneth H. Lenzen, associate professor of engineering mechanics.
Dean John S. McNown of the School of Engineering and Architecture will speak at the noon luncheon.
Speakers will be Donald L. Dean associate professor of civil engineering at KU; S. O. Asplund, professor of stuctural mechanics at Chalmers University, Gothenburg, Sweden, and T. Y. Lin, professor of civil engineering at the University of California, Berkeley.
The pocket gopher is one of the few animals that can run backward as fast and as easily as it can run forward.
Men and women alike become better informed on the boudoir habits of either sex—for example, how to apply make-up, or the delicate art of shaving around a goatette.
A speech may be delivered through the use of diagrams or blackboard drawings. A class can be shown, without the necessary practice, how to play pool or how to make a plane landing.
There has been a story told about the boy who for a speech on ironing a pair of pants, removes his own for the demonstration. This story is TRUE. The speeches was given to the embarrassment of several female members of the class.
Students are given instructions and recommendations on the speeches that require the use of large props. With this in mind, a girl brought to class a life-sized stuffed dog. She then gave a demonstration on how to dry-shampoo stuffed animals.
For the more intellectually inclined, speeches are given on the evolution of Chinese writing and'

how fusion and fission are associated in the atomic world.
How to play a musical instrument is probably the most popular of all speech topics. The demonstrations range from the cello to the bongo and castanets.
Finally, for the graceful exit from class, a student gave a speech on what to do in case of fire, complete with instructions on how to leave the classroom-which he did.
Discussion Tonight on Training of Teachers
The discussion will be sponsored by Phi Sigma, honorary organization in biological sciences.
"How Should Teachers Be Trained?" will be the topic of a panel discussion at 8 o'clock tonight in Room 305 of the Kansas Union.
Panel members will be E. E.
Bales, professor of education; A. B.
Leonard, professor of zoology; J. H.
Nicholson, associate professor of
physical education, and L. W. Seagondollar, associate professor of physics.
