Hospital Benefit Shower Gets Many Needed Accessories for Building
MRS. FRANK STRONG'S IDEA
The University hospital will be well equipped with all the small but necessary accessories of such a building, due to the untrying effort of Mrs. Frank Strong, president of the University Women's Association and the Merle Thorpe, chairman of the Mrs Merle Thorpe, chairman of the arrangements committee.
Jellies, Fruits and Money Are Among the Presents
Everything that was asked for was contributed many times over. The hardest to secure, was exceptionally large. No subscriptions to magazines were received but the daily contribution to current magazines is so large.
In addition to the abundant contribution of articles suggested by the committee, thirteen dollars in cash were received. This money will be used in supplying anything more that is needed in the hospital.
Mrs. Strong entertained the women of the association at a reception yesterday afternoon and evening. Fetter's brother, the hospital were informally discussed.

And lessons and cares were dropped
For 'twas early spring and the weather was fine.

AH THEM DAYS! THEM DAYS!
A professor of history tells us that the university of the middle ages was "bossied" by the students. If the people of the town in which the university was situated mistreated the students, they would have their faculty and their other luggage and moved the university to some older town. If any of the faculty members wanted leave of absence he first get consent from the students.

SLAVIC MUSIC A TREAT
Shostac Quartet Holds Lawrence Audience Spellbound With Artistic Renditions
The Stosha String Quartet of Kansas City, Mo., in its initial appearance in Lawrence, at the chapel of Fraser Hall last night gave one of the most pleasing concerts of the year. In spite of the fact that there were several hundred people in attendance.
The program was unusual, in that it consisted entirely of Russian and Slavic music, which is seldom heard by the musical public of the middle west.
The trio for violin, 'celio and piano proved popular in both the Eleryg and the Scherzo by Arensky; the audience was quick to appreciate the happy combination of violin and piano strings, and insisted upon an encore. The Scherzo was repeated. Tachikowsky's "Andante Cantabile," a wonderful melody, brought its own share of appause, as did the light but stately jujun bappet 'Bauerchtin.'
The first of the group of four compositions, by Dvorak captivated the audience and the second number, with its pure sustained tones, left the list's greatest and tote. This number brought the greatest applause of the evening.
"The audience, tonight, was one of the most attentive and appreciative we have appeared before," remarks Shocat Shostac at the close of the evening.

Even K. U. people, of doggone little foolishness, will try to be devilish tomorrow and join in world in culture on the anniversary day of doo's Fool day. To forewarn is to forearm. Here are some rules compiled from Hoyle governing the proper dress code.
Rise early. At the breakfast table deliberately salt your grapefruit and assist Henry in careening the paprika on his egg.
Don't be persuaded to call Bell phone 62 for a rooming place. Lawrence police can be just as foolish as Nor does Frank want you at 1318.
Though every joke has reached a stage of fermentation, be polite and should a deep, bass voice琴歌 over a song, you can speak up and give her a date. She expects it.

Wednesday night was pay-night for the band. Each member received twenty cents as reimbursement for what he had paid for street car fare when the band played before three of the Kansas City high schools the day of the Kansas-Missouri track meet in Convention Hall.
The new University catalogue is now with the printer or rather most of it is for it will be printed in sections the same as last year. The catches of the printers are stored and the Summer Session are already off the press. Those of the Graduate School, the School of Medicine and of General Information are in the printer's hands, and the others are ready to use. They practically no changes in the catalogues either in size or in the courses offered. About 30,000 will be printed.

Six Teams Effect Preliminary
Applicants May Enter Until Sixteen Have Petitioned
Representatives of six boarding clubs met at the office of the Daily Kansas last night and effected a preliminary organization of the Hash House League. They were Stoke, Olive, Kentucky; Kentucky; Oread Cafe; Dunlinak; 1311 Alho; Draper, 1247 Kentucky; Garret, 1332 Aenessee.
It was decided that the limit of membership would be placed at sixteen, in two divisions, in view of the large number made by the year 24 teams were entered, and the large number made the organization unwieldy. It is thought that with the two diamonds on Hamilton available the schedule can be run off without trouble.
Another meeting will be held Tuesday day evening at 7:30, at which time the organization will be fully completed, and the business of the league put under way. Arrangements will be made for the drawing up of a schedule and some steps taken toward draughting a new set of rules.
Additional members will be accepted up to the limit in the order of filing their requests. When the limit is reached, no more will be admitted, thus desiring to enter should notify John. One must 297 Bell or Home phone, at once.
Play will begin a week from Saturday. If possible in order to complete the event, your child should join you.

USED UP SUPPLY OF MONEY ORDER BLANKS
Early this week the supply of postal money order blanks at the post office in Fraser Hall was exhausted and it was first hoped that new blanks could be secured from the main office. The printing of the substation name on an blanks used by the Fraser Hall office is limited. The new order was issued to write no more money orders until the new supply arrives from Washington.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
The lack of money orders has already proved an indirect benefit to the patrons of the K. U. postoffice. With only one window to handle all of the postal business, information calls, and general business, the several minutes spent in writing one money order has much delay in the past. To make matters easier, which letters must be dropped is under the window making it almost impossible to mail anything when there is anyone at the window.
Although the completion of the new Administration Building seems a long way off, many pictures of the building as it will look when compiling them are available. Members of the class in Fine Arts, who are drawing the contemplated building from the plaster model in the studio on the third floor of the Ad building. The men sitting on their benches create a pattern that makes for an entire air of Bohemia.
ART STUDES' WHISTLES
MAKE GOOD PICTURES
Only three songs were being whistled, for which there is a good psychological reason. There are three styles of strokes in the drawings that were being made — long, curved strokes in the shading of the corners of the building, short, sharp strokes in the building, wide strokes in the form of the building. The three songs were "Silver Threads Among the Gold," "Yankee Doodle," and "June Waltz," given in the order of the corresponding lines that they accompanied. It is a proved psychological fact that the human mind is essentially rhythmic and the rhythm of the mind and the hands and feet are connected to the psychological phenomenon rarely absent as in the present case. Whistling and the Fine Arts students may be made the basis of an investigation by some of the advanced students in the department of psychology.
MISS PATTEN PLEASES
Sends Audience Home With
Food For Thought on Eugenics
READS PLAY, "TOMORROW"
Percy Mackaye in Drama Deals With Mendelian Theory
That the social, religious and political aspects of our life are radically conditioned by the biological, was the theme of the reading entitled "Tomorro Makaye, given by Miss Cora Mel Pattin on the chapel yesterday afternoon."
Mr. Macaulay advances the theory that in our age, which is opening new concept and opportunity of woman through selection, as the creative arbiter, of our race and of its future, she describes the theme for national thought and action.
Miss Patten opened with a very pretty tribute to Kansas. She said that her name is an abbreviation for the Spanish word Manana (tomorrow) was the embodiment of the freshness, viability and beauty of the West, and incidentally of Kansas.
"In the play," said Miss Patter, "Mr. Mackaye has approached the question of eugenics sincerely and even reverently. He refers to Mendel as the greatest biologist—although, in my opinion, no scientist—not even Mendel; so has much as touched the hem of the garment of this question."
In speaking of the performance Prof. Arthur MacMurray said, "I consider Miss Patterson's work extremely clever and true to life. Her manner of reading from the book, and of gesticulating and interpreting as she reads, reminds me of the stage manner of Mrs. Bertha Kunz Baker, who he heard several times, and who was formerly a teacher of Miss Patterson."

GOSPEL—SCHWEGLER
"The essence of the gospel is that God loves you and wants you to be absolutely an unqualified success," said Prof. R. A. W Schwinger in a lecture before a joint 2年 M.-Y. W. meeting at Myers Hall, last night.
"There are two types of humanity and two types of religion, -optimistic ancient Hebrews of Greece and Rome, and Buddhism are all founded on the pessimistic conception of the Universe, an entity antagonistic to humanity.
"The essence of the grasp of the Bible depends not on inspiration," concluded Professor Schwegler, "but on the fact that Christianity works."

The resolutions are to be the effect that the sororities are to the firm here; we have signed up for rooms to leave them until the end of the first semester.
A committee was also appointed to draw up a few simple rules that might be uniformly applied to every room, but they simply imply matters very much," said Mrs. Brown; "if all rooming houses have the same rules, students who do not take it as a personal offense requested to observe these rules."
It was decided to meet again Thursday, April 6, to hear the reports of the court.

He Isn't Over It Ye
A REAL BOY ALRIGHT WAS UNCLE JIMMY
"You're right, your Uncle Jimmy was a real boy; and he hasn't completely gotten over being one yet," said W. R. Green, when asked if Uncle Jimmy hadn't been a live one when he married his wife. "I was a boy, W. R. Green is Uncle Jimmy's brother, and the County Commissioner at the court house down town.
Uncle Jimmy, "the grand old man of K. U.," has always been popular wherever he went. As a boy in school he was a recognized leader of his fellow students and was well liked by his many pals. And when it came to wooing them, Jimmy said, "Here! They just couldn't help but like him—the natural gentleman that he is."
"Yes, I guess you would call him a 'fusser', for he always was quite a society man," said his brother. "We always kept a nice driving horse and a horseman." James was known and liked by everyone within twenty miles around."
74 YEARS OLD
Uncle Jimmy was born in Cambridge, New York, seventy-four years ago, on April 4th. His father died when the boys were mere lads, and the bringing up was left to their parents, who lived on a farm about two miles from town and when of high school age, attended the Cambridge-Washington Academy. After leaving the academy Judge James Green went to Phillips Academy at Andover, Mass. It was a decision decided upon his life work, which finally brought him to us as Dean James W. Green of the School of Law.

Williams of the department of Civil Engineering, and听着，Professor Williams has just announced that he attended the annual meeting of the American Railway Association.
This is the first year in a long time that indications point to a large amount of construction work, especially along civil engineering lines. The railroads and the large construction companies are sending out harrysons and engineers, and the college graduate will count on the first chance at the better positions.
"The Westinghouse and General Electric firms are sending out calls for more men than usual this year, and it seems in general as though the main field is looking forward to a very high number of roads represented at the meeting all wanted to get a line on the graduates from the technical colleges, and especially those from the colleges and Universities in the middle west."
