THE HIKE'S THE THING NOWADAYS
mainy Weather Attracts Many to Seek the Outdoor Life
CANOEING IS POPULAR
Twenty-five hundred of the three thousand University students took hikes or on steak roasts or hired a canoe and rowed up the river Saturday and Sunday. For as days go toward summer days, the team had summer days. Saturday started out chilly but by afternoon had warmed up sufficiently to warrant a delightful day in the fields. The absence of a football game spurred many on to the joys to be found on the hikes most taken by students. Sunday started with a race around the streets. The roads and fields were docked with folks going and coming.
Interurban Trolley Has Made New Picnic Grounds Available
The students have found a new way to reach picnic grounds. The Kaw Valley interurban furnishes a park, and the Lake George of Lawrence. Bonner Springs is a mighty fine place to spend an afternoon and there are other spots along the north bank of the Kaw River with wide side for steak roasters and picnicians.
Within walking distance of the students are the better known hike terminals. Woodland Park abounds with pine trees, oak woods, trees, shelter and water. The Wakarua presents historic places of interest. Excellent train service west gives student hikers a chance to explore nature and other points on the Santa Fe.
If you do not care for hiking you have the opportunity of blistering your hands on a row up the Kaw to camera. Cameras are built in there with plenty of secrecy on both sides and many companion canoes and boats.
