Appears before Journalists and Tells How He Would Run Paper. Dod Gaston of the Topeka Capitol talked, not lectured, to the students of the newspaper classes yesterday on "Livening Up the News Columns," "How to Conduct a Special Feature Column," and several other things that happened to flit into his mind during the fifteen or twenty minutes he was on the grill. The substance of his address was much like this, that if he, Dod Gaston, owned a paper, the President's message would be thrown into the waste paper basket except for a summary of the most important parts; all long interviews would be left unwritten by reporters on his staff and all speeches First Lesson SIMPLE CONSONANTS Name:pee bee tee dee chay jay kay gay hay h-dot Sign: \ | / | / - - / .

Some of the things he did not tell which few other visiting editors have failed to impress upon the budding journalists was how glad he was to be present, how much money could be made in the newspaper business, and the most important omission of all, how to prepare copy. But laying aside all prejudice, Dod Gaston's address yesterday was one of the most interesting and entertaining the newspaper classes have had an opportunity to hear. He was not an easy talker. His hand trembled nervously throughout the entire talk as he held his manuscript but it was the same Dod Gaston talking that entertains thousands of Kansans every morning from the spicy "On Second Thought" column and the same Believes in Visionaryism in Character Building. REV. McGURK IN CHAPEL. Rev. McGurk, successor of Dr. Quayle at the Methodist Episcopal church of Kansas City, made a very interesting address at Friday's chapel exercises on, "The Making of a Man." In the beginning the speaker acknowledged the indifference of the general body of students to an "advice" address but asked that owing to his position in the ministry and his silver tinted locks, he might be permitted to talk upon the subject given. "I believe," said he, in visionaryism. We should see far beyond our present sphere for man rarely rises above his own ideals. What first is visionary through a process of development approaches the real, becomes a part of our purpose and at last crystallizes into character." "Men of such adamantine characters are what we need today—such examples as Theodore Roosevelt, Bryan, LaFollette and Folk." Continuing the speaker expressed himself as believing that the bringing out of the best in one man influenced greatly those near him. Character is moulded through the influence of such accomplishments as Michael Angelo's Frescoes, Handel's Oratorio Messiah and William Shakespeare's masterpieces of literature.

His name is HIS MOTTO: "SQUARE DEAL" keen humor was always present. keen humor was always present. Dod Gaston, who outside of newspaper circles and a newspaper atmosphere, bears the nomenclature, J. E. House, would be the last man an ordinary observer would pick for the writer of the humorous column. He was tall, very tall, and almost as thin as he was tall. He looked on the whole very grave and serious and was dignified enough to pass muster for the undertakers' union. The most important fact about his personal appearance, however, was his coat. There are one or two long coats at the University to which the students point with pride, but when Dod Gaston walked into the room a murmur of suppressed admiration was heard from the waiting students for he had surpassed the best K.
