JAYHAWKER STRONG
FOR ARTISTIC COLORING
Dr. Corbin Asks That Kansas Give Cultured, Sheltered Home to University Girls
"Although there will be plenty of color in this year's annual Jayhawker," says E. M. Johnson, the editor, "it will all be high class art work, and loud coloring will be omitted. The prevailing tint throughout the book will be light blue and all decorations will be light tints of grey and green, thus giving the annual a delicate color throughout."
Each section of the Jayhawner will have for its initial page a colored poster of four shades. These posters will introduce the various departments including those devoted to athletics, fraternities, sororities and many other conventional divisions of a college annual.
The front section of the 1916 Jayhawker including the frontispiece, title-page and the table of contents, will be printed in three colors. The contents has been missing from the Jayhawker for the past few years.
"HOUSE K. U. WOMEN"
The cover will be of first class sheep-skin and the color will be a deep green. Kansas colors will feature the first eight pages.

THE STATE CAN AFFORD IT
Lawrence, Kansas, February 14.—Many University of Kansas women cannot pass their college years in the atmosphere of a cultured home because the University has no dormitories. Her mentions advanced by Dr. Alain Corbin, of the department of German, in a plea for women's dormitories, which she made before the Kansas Conference of Women, at their annual meeting on January 28, shortly after she been elected president of that body.
Kansas Conference of Women
Discusses Educational Problems
KANSAS YALES SHORE
"A compromise on the conditions at KU, with those of Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota makes it very clear that the University of Kansas falls far short of their standard. I regret that this true. There is no excuse for such a condition in a state where the university has the richest in the Union. The state is prosperous; it wants for nothing; and yet its leaves its University where it was twenty-five years ago. And this means that while others forge ahead, our relative rank among the great cities of the country, diminishes.
Dr. Corbin said in substance: "When I first came to the University of Kansas, there were so few women students that they could all find compartmentalized housing in their homes instead of in miscellaneous boarding houses. The number of women now in the University is so large that better accommodations are needed."
KANSAS FALLS SHORT
"I am a native of Kansas. As such, I claim the right to criticize Kansas, Patriotic Kansans have a bad habit of saying and believing Kansas is, in all respects, the best state in the Union, and that our university and our schools are superior to those of other states. This creates a wrong sentiment and prevents normal development. To give a concrete example of this over-suggestion, Mr. W. H. L. Moore of the Kansas State Normal at Emporia, has recently completed a careful survey of all the high schools of the state. In this survey, a certain Blank county was rated as follows:
CLAIMS RIGHT TO CRITICIZE
Persistence of high school attendance—28th.
Preparation of teachers—25th.
Salaries of supervisors—33rd.
Salaries of teachers—50th.
Breadth of curriculum—78th.
Number of children in attendance- 1st place.
This simply means that the large attendance reduces what little efficiency the schools of Blank County have in enrolling students and have a large enrollment combined with a minimum of efficiency. Their first place in enrollment gives them the last place in public service. One reason is that they are totally headed an article with big, black half-inch letters, "Ranks Close to Top". This was a gross misinterpretation of facts. We must look at these numbers to see if we intend to accomplish results.

U. would eat, wholesome scoli stam-

in cliques and above all, would create a democratic feeling," concluded Dr.
CONFERENCE FOR REFORM
CONFERENCE FOR REFORM
The Kansas Conference of Women, which is composed of presidents and past president of the Kansas state organizations of women, has for its purpose the undertaking of some welfare work for public benefit. It is the practice of this society to undertake not more than two lines of work at the same time. The society goes about its business by first creating public sentiment in sympathy with the proposed reform, and then it tries to get appropriation bills through the legislature. This society has turned its attention to the establishment of a hall of residence for women at K. U.
COMPOSED OF MANY SOCIETIES State organizations such as the StateFederation of Clubs, Daughters of the American Revolution, Kansas Deans of Women's College, Deans of Women of Kansas Colleges, Association of Collegiate Alumni and Daughters of Founders and Patriots belong to this conference. Miss Corbin has been a member of this society. ever since she held the position of president of the Kansas Dinner Club, a state organization for Kansas teachers.
"The time for action has come," added Dr. Corbin. "The sentiment has been created; we must get the appropriation bills through; we must have the women's hall of residence at K. U., because we need it; we can't afford it when other universities are progressing and leaving us in the distance."

"You see," he laughed, "I'm an old offender at this sort of work. The grey hairs that you see upon my head have all been brought there by me." Mock Trials, but I'm ready to be a martyr to the cause at any time.
Under the guidance of the local Y. M. C. A. Miss Mary H. West recently appealed to the Court to produce for her balm for a broken heart, which would not be appeased for any less than $10,000, although she admitted she might, if persuaded hard enough, be induced to get better. As Ms. Jerusalem Perkins she produced a copious amount of perfumed notes as evidence against Professor "Curly" Vaughn, the steward-hearted, indifferent defendant—a practiced trifer with women's hearts.
