MAKE BLUE PRINTS OF
PENITIARY MINE²
Blue prints are being made today from the plane-table survey of the coal mines at Lansing, which was completed during the Christmas vacation by H. E. Crum and George Sammons of the department of mining.
This map was drawn to the scale of 265 feet to the inch in the original survey, but had to be enlarged to 200 feet to the inch to comply with the requirement of the Mines. This work was done by E. M. Stryker by pantograph. The instrument used was a suspended precision pantograph, belonging to the School of Engineering, which cost $170. The work is accurate to the only complete and accurate map of the Lausin mines in existence.
Two copies will be sent to Warren Coddling at the penitentiary and one to the State Mine Inspector. Crum and Sammons had started on a transit survey of the mine, to catch all thefts, but broke out and stopped them. Later when the full mine force is on again, they expect to finish their work.

DIRECTORIES HAVE THEM
W. S. G. A. Finds That Students Do Not Read Rules
The W. S. G. A. members are continually confronted with the idea from some guilty maiden that she didn't know what the rules were and therefore should not be held responsible.
Both the rules and the exceptions are in the student directory but no rule is in it.
Will those who have and those who have not had a conflict with the W. S. G. A. please look at the following rules:
All dates shall end at eleven o'clock on Friday, and Saturday nights, and at ten o'clock on Sunday night. There must be no dates on a night before a school day unless for one of the following exceptions:
For sleighing parties, which shall end at eleven o'clock.
For concerts, lectures, and things of University interest.
For theatres.
On the night of and night before a holiday.
Out-of-town men must leave at the same time as University men.
OIL SEEKERS BOMBARD
OIL SEALERS DURBANK
HAWORT WITH LETTERS
Twenty letters a day are coming in to Erasmus Haworth, Professor of Geology, since his announcement of the Kansas oil belt. Monday.
Most of these letters ask for more detailed information concerning the fields and for geologists to survey them preparatory to leasing. Many come from those desiring to take part in research, both resident and correspondence.
A course is being taught this year in Economic geology, which takes up the study of oil, gas and coal. How much it will not be offered, at least at present, because of the vast amount of work necessary to successfully launch a new course, and because of the inherent difficulty in teaching this course by mail.
As soon as the earth dries sufficiently, advanced students in geology will probably be sent to survey the land of those desiring to employ them.
PRINGLE WILL TELL OF FORD TRIP TOMORROW
HAVE WE NO GRINDS
For the first time since his return from Europe, Kenneth Pringle of the School of Law, will give a talk on the Christian effects of Peace Party." He speaks at the Plymouth Congregational church next Sunday evening at 6:30.

Spooner has no Regular Tennis Cramming Personnel Shifts
Kenneth Bell, '19 College, feeling sick, paid the University hospital a visit. After consulting the doctor he decided to become an inmate of the establishment for a few weeks. Bell has the measles.
The number of grinds in the University of Kansas is not excessive if one may judge from the students who are in the habit of making use of the library upon evenings during school hours, because stress being made upon studies. It is true that no evening passes when there are not some students to be found poring over books in the library, but the personnel of this institution have a different evening that no one group may be -classed as the confirmed grinds.
The number that comes on this evening someday falls between twenty-five or thirty and at times the reading rooms are crowded. During the Kanbar Festival, games the number of regular library habitats appreciably diminished.
Saturday night is the least popular for library study. Even though there may be nothing of especial interest scheduled to attract students elsewhere where few of them find their way to the library on Saturday night.
The grinds are hard to detect and if we are to rely upon the library for information on the library does not have to worry a great deal about their excessive numbers.
Coach Urges Men to Keep in Good Trim for Tigers
ATHLETES MUST TRAIN
Coach W. O. Hamilton takes the coming indoor meet with Missouri as a serious matter and is urging every man on the team to turn up hard, caring for the two weeks that remain before the contest. "We appear to have a shade the better of them in the distance events," said he, last night, "but they have a decided advantage in the pole vault, hurdles and apparently so in the pole vault event." The couple of Missouri in the K. C. A. C. games Saturday night but we expect to win this event in the dual meet. The quarter is a toss up and much depends upon who gets the pole at the start. Campbell and O'Leary are expected to show the race of their lives and they meet the Missouri quarter milers.
Then he added emphatically, "I believe the outcome of this meet depends more upon the condition of the men than any other one thing, and it is up to each one, personally, to see that he is in the best possible condition. I figure that we can beat them all with hats four or five, but it all depends upon how the men take care of themselves during the next two weeks."
MORE THAN 100,000 BOOKS
IN SPOONER LIBRARY NOW
The number of volumes in Spooner Library is now over 100,000. New books are being added all the time. A list taken at random from the newest books shows the great field covered by them. Here are a few:
The newest books are left on the shelf over the filing cases for a few months. Fiction is in greatest demand at the desk, Kipling and Mark Twain being the favorites. History and economics are widely used for reference work.
Herbert Morse: Back to Shakespeare; John A. Hobson: Evolution of Modern Capitalism; Lydia R. Blain: Three Industrial Nations; Hogbino-Habitats; John A. Hobson: Castle; Heredity; John Muir: New National Parks; James and Selbe Hastings: Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics; Samuel G. Blythe: Making a Newspaper Man; J. A. and Lily S. Miller: Analytic Mechanics; William W. the Emotions: Frothingham; History of Architecture.
At a joint meeting of the governing board of the Mechanical Engineering Society and the editorial staff of "The Kansas Engineer" held last evening in the office of Dean Walker, the final draft of the printing of the magazine were let.
The magazine is to be much the same as in former years but will be out earlier and will have more notes that will help with the jobs that have come and who will be before the end of the year. Papers of a technical nature will still have the main place, but there will be less emphasis on it well. After the business sessions papers were read by J. C. Klippel on "The History of the Development of Machine Tools," and by T. J. Laney on "The Production of Casing-Had gasoline."
KANSAS ENGINEER WILL
BE PUBLISHED EARLIER
College students are charged with shocking ignorance of matters of moment in the world about them. Anyone making such a claim would be considered an inveterate Illinois men and women. The average student in Champaign or Urana has about as clear an idea of the world's important events, notable incidents, and horrors of our modern literary men or women in political and economic developments.
UNPOPULAR READING
worth while, as the resident of a foreign land. His sources of information are far too often limited to such publications as the Daily Illini, the various Chicago papers, the Saturday Evening Post, Life, and perhaps the Cosmopolitan or Hears't. He may occasionally augment his fund of in formation with a hasty glance at the literature of the Library or Collier's. He requires a fragmentary knowledge of the war's most striking events, a brief summary of world news and a fairly complete account of local happenings. In addition, he reads a few stories by writers of more or less ability—usually the latter, unfortunately. Occasionally he reads the greater part of a literary criticism book, but he mistakes, and thus accidently learns a little about the efforts of some worthy author—Daily Illini.

SUCCESS IS NOT GOAL
OF LIFE SAYS McKEEVER
That the majority of men are on the wrong trail, that success is not the true goal of life, and that life is for the most part tragedy, but with intense drama where the ideas expressed by Dr. William A. McKeever came to light after a brief period of Life," before the Christian Associations in Myers Hall last evening.
"To be yourself is to express the thoughts and ideas God has implanted in you, said Dr. McKeever. "Give up your life and make it easier to resolve to take your life philosophically as the men in the trenches of Europe, who have given up wealth, home, friends, wife and kindred, have to suffer. You can also die. They accept life as a tragedy but make your life triumphant. Have defined life, so that you will not be alone in your sorrowings. The true dramatization of life, the characterization of a great life."
Dr. Paul Carson of Ashland is a visitor at the Pi Upsilon house. The doctor was a member of Pi Upsilon and came up to attend the Junior Prom.
