Collection Received From Old Wyandotte Village
The G. U. S. Hovey collection of Indian religies, consisting of 7,500 specimens, has just been arranged in two large cases on the third floor of Dyche Museum. The collection was donated in 1913 but owing to the lack of specimens the process of cataloguing it has been long and difficult.
There are pipes, pottery, books carved from stone in imitation of the bibles used by the Jesuits, grinders for the preparation of food, and scrapers used to clean skins for wearing apparel. Every article is catalogued as to size, color, and state of preservation. There are many types of arrowheads, one peculiar type is a bright blue. Most of them are left-armed with pink or beaded heads being seldom found. The side which is bevelled determines which way the arrow will rotate on its longitudinal axis.
The importance of the collection lies in the fact that it all comes from one village and that this village was used as a material aid to transport. A large part of the material from which these implements were made, evidently was transported from the Dakota and was probably obtained by trade with other tribes. The villagers point out that on the Missouri river at a point that was favoured for a crossing.

Few Requirements—Beauty No Essential But Character in Your Face is
How would you like to be a model? If you would like to serve as an artist's pattern see Prof. W. A. Griffith, professor in drawing and painting, for he is very desirable of obtaining several models after the Easter holidays to pose before his class in free-hand drawing.
TWENTY-FIVE GENES AN HOUR
The requirements of a model are fine. Beauty is not essential, but three must be some character in the face. You will have to be gentle with you may be a man or woman, it makes no difference. All that you have to do is to pose twenty-five minutes and rest five, and for your trouble you will be reimbursed at the rate specified. The models generally work in turns from two to four hours at a time. No you do not have to sit like a block of marble, in fact, in the advance classes they encourage talking so that an animation can be given to the sketch. Occasionally, the model is in costume.
But, before you take your position "on the throne," as the model's chair is called, it is only fair that you should know that being a model for a beginning class in free-hand drawing is not very exciting. Professor Griffith shows that this class draws a real live model much as they would an onion or a carrot.
A little more dope that you should know before applying for the job: Out of the sketches of the entire class there will probably be only two or three good drawings. Many of them you will not be proud of, and perhaps a few that you will fail to recognize.
This year the girls wanted an old man to sketch. Seventeen typical old follows were found hanging around the court house, idle. Some of them were depending on the poor commissioner for their living, but when approached with the model proposition they were admitted that the money looked good but that they were too bashful for that kind of work. Maybe they thought that they were to pose as Innocence, Virtue or Father Time.
MAY MAKE YOU A CARROT
It is a problem to know where to get models, laments Professor Griffith. The men are too bashful and only a little aware of the revenue. However, when a sorority is raising a fund for a piece of furniture or for some other purpose, models are plentiful and in Professor Griffith'sology, "It's like finding a gold mine."

Shh, Theodore. Let Woodrow alone not nibble. He another homelon noises our common.
It is at the Odd Fellows' Hall at the hour of eight. All expected are present. Mr. Herriott rises to speak and the hubu lids叫 into whispers. Cigars and etc., having been distributed gratis, many matches are struck and the smoke rises. Mr. Herriott is speaking;
"In this great state of Kansas, I know of no one so able to advise the student body of this great University, and unselfishly and unselfishly for the welfare of his Alma Mater than he who is now to address you. Hon. Duke Kennedy," (Cries of "Heart Heart") and long applause Hon. Kennedy rises to speak.)
Continance performance for some time with Neal Ireland, Guy Lamar; Tubby Mulloy, et al., as principal actuarial member; the multi-year Boots Academy, Boots Gear, Sint Greecer and Hon, Mr. Herriott sit on the platform. They hope that in this way the student body will get to know its next Student Council sooner. But they hope against force for outside the university, Mr. Herriott ticket has a rival, Curses.
Pettitions are circulating in many classes this morning, for candidates for the Student Council. They must be recognized on the ballots.
EIGHT MICE PER HOUR
CAUCH BY THE TRAP
Miss Lilia Walling of the department of Physiology holds the record for mice catching, or at least her old standby the mouse trap does. One evening when these conquerers of feminine bravery became too impertinent, Miss Walling's mouse-catcher Miss Dana with great clarity and in one hour eight mice ventured forth from one hole never to return.
The mice appreciating the rare morsels of frog, doped-up heart beets, tongues and other scraps from the mice would flocking to these rooms until no more mouse holes could be rented. Miss Walling has increased her supply of mouse traps and soon the desire for homes will be reduced to a minimum.

Association Members Consent to Bear Expenses of Annual Feast
Preparation is being made at the University of Illinois Summer Session for a course for athletic coaches. In consideration of the increased interest in athletics in the United States the team has been developed who make coaching a profession and provides training as well as experience.
As a result of recent exchanges of letters between Prof. Leon N. Flint, general secretary of the Alumni Association, and Chancellor Frank Strong, the members of the Alumni Association have consented to assume legal responsibility of the Alumni Dinner this year. The letters follow:
April 17, 1916.
Chancellor Frank Strong University of Kansas. My Dear Chancellor;
Since a ruling by the state auditor prevents the University from giving the customary dinner at commencement, with the funds provided for that purpose, he has appointed the officers of the Alumni Association have authorized me to say that the association would be glad to assume the financial responsibility for the dinner this year in order that one of the old mestors of our customs might be preserved.
It would be necessary, on account of the limited resources of the association, that part at least, of the expense of the dinner be borne by those attending; but all financial risk and the management would rest on the alumni.
Sincerely yours,
L. N. Flint,
General Secretary.
April, 18, 1916.
Mr. L, N. Flint, Secreta
Alumni Association,
University of Kansas.
Mv Dear Mr. Flint:
This is in answer to your kind favor of April 17 to the effect that the officers of the Alumni Association on behalf of the Association itself have offered to assume the financial responsibility for the University Dinner for June of the current year. The University heartily appreciates the action of the Association and welcomes its assistance in carrying through the policy of the University Dinner, an advantage. I note the arrangement which is suggested, namely, that part at least of the expenses be borne by those attending, and believe under the circumstances that this is a wise arrangement ought to be made on all concerned.
With many thanks for loyalty and helpfulness of the Alumni Association and with best wishes, I am,
Yours very sincerely,
Frank Strong,
Chancellor.
TESTING OF PRISON BREAD
Water, Starch and Cream of Tartar Wrong Ingredients
Tests to determine the quality of the bread served the prisoners at Lansing have recently been made by the department of Home Economics at the University of Kansas, in accordance with a request from Prof. E. H. S. Bailey, of the department of Home Economics, where the work is due Miss Emma Thiessen, a senior in the department, who made the analysis.
PRISON JREIS UNSATISFACTORY
"Home-made bread differs considerably in character from that made by a professional baker, in that it is almost invariably finer and closer grained," said Professor Elizabeth Sprague. "The bread made by the original recipe used at the prison was very unsatisfactory, poor in flavor and unsightly in color."
Professor Sprague says that the starch and cream of tartar which had been used, were not only unnecessary, but actually detrimental. An excessive amount of salt, nearly four times as much as the department found desirable, was called for by the original recipe. It was found that latter was made when a slacker dough was made, using from 450 to 500 pounds of flour, as against 600 pounds used by the prison, to 36 gallons of liquid.
MILK BETTER THAN WATER
MILK BETTER THAN WATER
The addition of a larger water quantity of fat made a tenfold but the increased it has been explained, is not absolutely necessary.
The substitution of skimmed milk for water increased the protein 14 percent without greatly increasing the cost and made a whiter bread; and the use of a larger quantity of yeast, reducing the time for rising and baking from 19 to 5 hours gave a sweater, of a two-pound bowl and 3.9 cents for the modified long process recipe and 4.8 cents for the short process recipe, which includes the milk and the additional amount of yeast.
A note from Clay Roberts, B. S.'18, on board a ship to South America, informs his Kansas friends that he will be employed for the next few months in railroad construction work in Chile. After that he will be engaged in a copper mining proposition in the Andes Mountains. His address is Chanaral, Chile, in care of the Andes Exploration Company.
