PAPER PRICES DOUBLE
Scarcity of Wood Pulp Responsible for Jump in Paper
Why has the price of paper jumped from the price of eighty dollars a ton to one hundred and sixty dollars? Probably the best cause is the increase in the price of wood pulp. Wood pulp is imported from Europe and at present is impossible to be obtained. There are two kinds of wood pulp used in the art of making paper; namely brown and white. The wood is much more refined than the brown, as is a process of bleach-ing the white hash to undergo.
This wood pulp is ground in large grinders until it is in very fine particles. After the pulp has been thoroughly ground it is cooked for six or eight hours with about forty pounds of steam. Water is constantly added from above, though there parts of the grinder until the cooking is completed, and it is then removed by large suction pumps. After as much water has been removed as possible by these pumps, the pulp is collected on belts where it is rolled out into the sheets of paper. These sheets are then dried by dryers which finally turns the sheets of paper and they are collected on large rolls.

A complete safety-first outfit has been installed in the office of L. A. Hartley, superintendent of Fowler Shops. In a machine shop of the size and proportion to which this plant has grown in the last four years, it was necessary to take steps for the protection of both students and teachers.
The K. U. engineers will no longer be crowded for room. Ample accommodation have been provided them and a new supply of bores and works of reference has been added to the stacks.
Dr. Naismith will give a first-aid demonstration, before his return to the border. All employees and management of the first-aid treatments working knowledge of the first-aid treatments
Among, the many new works that have been placed on the shelves are the report of The International Engineering Congress for 1915, comprising eight volumes and "The Planning of the City" by Lewis.
Four new tables are now in the reading room and Mrs. Leanard believes that, her work will be more onerous because the library, enlarged and improved, is becoming more prominent with the men in the engineering school.

POOPAH IS DEAD
Dogs Fight For Supremacy.
Poopah, the Sig Alph dog, is no more. Again will he pick a fight with a dog larger than himself. Yesterday he had an attack on U. u Dog and mascot of the Hill. All efforts of the hospital force to save his life were unavailing. Two crushed legs and numerous wounds made his condition so serious that, on the advice of the leading physician, he was chloroformed.
Poopah's memory occupies a place that cannot be filled by another dog, for he was always gentle and obedient. His master will be installed as house dog.

Sites
The limestone excavated from the present site of the Administration Building and now piled between the Engineering Building and Haworth Hall, reveals the fossils of some prehistoric animals called Crinoides.
These animals consisted of three main parts: the calyn or body proper, the arms, and the stalk. The calyx is made up of a variable number of closely adjoining plates. From these plates, hardy arm bones are formed, arms, hardly ever less than five in number. The arms are made up of single or double columns of plates and have a series of small armlets arising from their inner edges, known as pinnule. The stalk consists of nine or ten pairs of arm bones called columnals. It is usually from to six to eight inches in length. The limestone which contains the fossils was formed in the Pennsylvania period of the Paleozoic era, according to Prof. Raymond C. MacLean of the department of geology. The rise of the primitive reptiles and insects marked the advances of life in this period, while the amphibians and lycopods were the dominant life.

MANY WOMEN HEAR ECHOES
OF ESTES PARK CONFERENCE
"Echoes from Estes" were given in various ways to 275 women who attended the meeting of the Y, W. C. A. At Myers Hall yesterday. Lantern slides illustrated short talks made by K. U. students who attended the Y. W.-Y. M. conference this summer in Estes Park, Colo.
The work of the meeting and the pleasures attending the association of 479 women from all the states in one of the most picturesque spots in America was the subject of most of the talks.
An original college song by one of the representatives was received with so much enthusiasm that it probably became popular with the women on the Hill.
Ivan Ferris c19 is recovering from a serious case of throat trouble. An operation was necessary to relieve the infection.

The Theatre Varsity and the Bowersock Theatre are now under one management,
In leasing the Bowersock Theatre and assuming management of both the Theatre Varsity and the Bowersock, I have had one object in mind—producing before the patrons of this town the best that money can buy in the moving picture world.
These two big theatres will now have access to the purchase of every high-class film produced in the country; they will be run on a like principle-that principle being to have at each show that which will suit the most fastidious, the most exacting, the most critical; every day.
With the whole market at our call, with every producing house in the country willing to sell to us, we can place before the people of this community the best pictures obtainable. It will be our object to follow closely the late releases and to have them in Lawrence as soon as they leave the exchanges.
To make it possible for you to choose between two feature attractions every day: To make your pleasure with the picture you see a certainty-not a mere probability-to give you the best and give it to you when the film is new and clear, and to show these pictures at a price below the charge in any other town in the country-That is our highest aim.
If you like a certain kind of picture, tell us. If another class is objectionable; tell us. We want to give to the patrons of these theatres what they want.
Your kindly criticism will be sincerely appreciated.
Very truly yours,
Lloyd L. Ware, Manager, Varsity and Bowersock Theatres.
