IF WALLS COULD TALK What a Story We'd Hear From Old Landmark, Eh? "What is it?" is the question asked by the students as, sliding gaily down Adams street, they pass the old stone building about half way down. The sign, which hangs over the broken down door proclaims that it is the K.U. Pantatorium but the very appearance of the building and the sign shows that the Pantatorium is only a "has been." OCCUPED AS LAST The old building has had a much cheekered career. When it was built no one in campus seems to know and even our latest residents say it was there when they first came. It was built for a dwelling house and as late as 1905 it housed a family. Then the veteran, following in the wake of others which were more pretentious than itself, left the quiet family life to seek it's fortune in the world of business. Manly and Harris, a firm of University students were the first to occupy it under the regime and they established the pantidorium. Upon their graduation they sold out and so they began cleaning business and entered the ranks of the shoe men under the direction of Mr. Broadhurst who is the present owner of the K. U. Shoe Shop. But the new business was not congenial to the old landmark so the next year it returned to its first love when an employee of Mr. Broadhurst took the sign "Clark Clems Clothes." The building was aging fast however, and showed a desire to retire and spend its days in revery so after a small fire in 1910 Mr. Clark moved out and since then it has remained unoccupied. RESISTED FIRE THREE TIMES INSISTED Durante la career the test of fire has three been applied to the old relic only to be successfully resisted by the stone walls. The effects of the last one have not been repaired and the veteran stands today windowless and doorless with plaster knocked off and walls charred and blackened. From time to time rumors come out to the effect that it is to be repaired and pressed into service but it is the prevailing opinion that "its ways are unsuited to our day" and that it can only rest in peace until some sacrilegious hand tears it down to make room for a modern successor. ORGANIZED FIRST BAND Those bulbs which have recently been planted out east of Snow Hall are not put there for experimental purposes. They are tulip bulbs planted there by the men in the water and sewage laboratory for the purpose of testing them suitful. Before long, according to the planters, the bed will show forth various hues of red, yellow and all other colors known to the tulip. Stuart Henry Was Responsible for Original K. U. Testers Karl Jones, middle Law, has withdrawn from the University to work in the book business in Emporia. He returns to finish his course in the fall. Marion Reid of Newton, who is now superintendent of schools in Lost Springs, writes his friends that he will be back at the University for summer school, in order to complete his work for a teacher's certificate. Reid was a sophomore in the College last year. Frances Kleitz, a former student at the University, writes that she likes her work at Leland Stanford University but still wishes to return to the University of Kansas for her Miss Kleiz was on the Hill two years ago. Stuart O. Henry, A., B. '81, A. M., *93*, who is to give the alumni address in June, is president of the New York State Security Company, but is better suited as an organizer of the first K.U. band. Mr. Henry does not try to conceal his youthful enthusiasisms for he is the author of an article entitled, "The first American Brass Band," which is printed in the Graduate Magazine for April, 1913. Mr. Henry was born in Clifton Springs, New York, Sept. 17, 1860 and came to Kansas in early childhood. He entered the University in 1877. After leaving the University, Mr. Henry chose Denver for his first business venture and was connected with various land and irrigation projects. Six years spent in Europe, studying in Germany, Italy, and at the Sorbonne, Paris, resulted in his writing several volumes of quite distinctive charm, "Paris Days and Homes" (1858) and "Famous Parisians" (1897), "Romance of a French Salon" (1903), and "The Net (1911). He also did editorial work on "The New International Encyclopedia," Mr. Henry is a member of Phi Kappa Psi, the Authors' Club and of Phi Beta Kappa. Music lovers will be given a rare treat at the concert of M. Gabrieliwitsch, the famous Russian pianist and Mme. Gabrieliwitsch, the noted American contralto, at the Bowersock theater tonight. M. Gabrilowitsch is of the school of MARK TWAIN'S DAUGHTER TO SING AT BOWERSOCK MADAME GABRILOWITSCH Anton Rubenstein and has gained international fame as a pianist. He is regarded by critics as having few equals in interpreting Russian music. Co-operative neckties are the innovation at the Kansas State Normal. They are saving students many half-dollars, as well as giving them a more decorated effect. A necktie is bought at the first of the year by each member of the necktie club and circulates for fifty-four laps. Co-operative hats are also being introduced by the women. Mme. Gabrilowitch, who was formerly Clara Clemens, the daughter of the great humorist, Mark Twain, has studied extensively in both Europe and America and has been accorded a place among the foremost Leider singers. She is the only living member of the author's family. Class election for junior representative on executive council of W. S. G. A. will be held Monday April 10th in the lecture room of Snow Hall at 12:20. Petitions of nominee's must be handed to election committee of W. S. G. A. by Friday, April 7th. Ethel Scott, Secretary—Adv. 139-3 Said the sophomore to a young lady who is not governed by the restrictions of Mrs. Brown's "contrivance": "You do not have to worry about violating the Midnight Date Rule, do you?" The Mid-Western Publishing Company has decided to enlarge their sale organization at Lawrence. If you want summer employment see me at Ohio St., 1200 N. Broadway and expenses paid the right party. E. C. Babb.,-Adv. 128-5 FACULTY WANTS OREAD GOLF COURSE REOPENED Golf enthusiasts among the faculty would like to see the Oread Golf course re-opened and put into shape for practice. The Country Club, which was opened in Lawrence about a year ago, offers additional security for these professors. At the start the dues were twenty dollars a year but on account of a debt dues have been raised to thirty dollars per annum. Miss Marcia that they can not afford amounts. John M. Shen, Superintendent of Grounds, has offered to devote one hundred and fifty dollars from a special fund. However, it is necessary for the students and faculty men at the school to amount is estimated that it will require almost three hundred dollars to fix up the grounds. HAS CONSULAR COURSE University Offers Work Which Prepares Students for U. S. Foreign Service Those students who hope to enter the consular service of the United States can take advantage of several courses offered at the University which are International Diplomacy, International Law, French, German, Spanish. At present only two men from Kansas are in the consular service. Consular-service examinations are held once a year at Washington and it is necessary for those who take the examinations to have been designated by the president to do so. After one year, you must receive a grade of 80 per cent grading on a 100 per cent basis, he must send his application for appointment to the Secretary of State. The government does not maintain a school for the training of candidates for the foreign office does it recommend such an institution. The examinations are oral and written, the two counting equally. The object of the oral examination is to determine the candidate's business ability, alertness, general contemporary information, and natural fitness for service, including moral, mental, and physical qualifications. The written examinations will include one language other than English—either French, Spanish or German, the natural, industrial, and scientific languages of the United States; political economy; and the elements of international, commercial and maritime law, American history, government and institutions; and economics. The course will be the history of Europe, Latin America, and the Far East, since 1860. Prof. Blain F. Moore, assistant professor of Political Science, says, "The Consular service offers wonderful opportunities for the young men of today; it is an easy job, pays a rather large salary and offers a good social standing. The system at present is run down on account of politics. When Roosevelt was in office he put it on a good basis. Now it is almost necessary to have a political pull in order to get an appointment. A new Seth Thomas has recently been installed in the upper reserve room of the library. It seems to be as difficult for it to keep step with the other clocks on the campus as it is with the students, who have selves. So the students now have one more excuse for being late to classes.
