SECOND RAIL TEST MADE
Result of Experiments Will Be Introduced as Evidence in Rates Case
The second of the series of tension tests on railroad rails which the department of engineering is undertaking, in conjunction with the state public utilities commission and the Santa Fe railroad, was made Saturday by H. R. Hunter and C. A. Poland. The test was performed on the street car track on Mississippi street directly in front of McCook field. The results of the experiment were entirely satisfactory, according to Prof. C. C. Williams, under whose direction the examination was made
In the preliminary test, the K. U. men used an instrument invented and constructed in the laboratory of the School of Engineering. The ap- measures the strain on the entire raodbed, including rails, ties, and all.
Will Use The Berry Guage
Will Use The Berry Gauge
In the final tests of the tension on the rails themselves, Hunter and Poland will use the Berry strain gauge, which is a standard instrument used by railway construction engineers. The Berry gauge is a small contravariance which is attached to the rail immediately under the level of the flange. The apparatus has two planes, one of which is on a level with the top of the rail and the other a short distance beneath. When a train passes overhead, one of these planes remains stationery; the other sinks in proportion to the de
friction of the rail resulting from the pressure of the train's wheels.
Want to Raise Passenger Rates
By means of this experiment, it is possible to determine how much strain is exerted on a rail by different types of trains.
This question is at present of considerable importance in view of the railway rates hearing now in progress before the state public utilities commission. The railroad companies claim that a rapidly-moving passenger train exerts a greater strain on the rails than the slower freight train, and, consequently, the motor, rapid deterioration of the rails. Upward rates of this claim, the transportation company asked to be allowed to raise their passenger rates from two to two and a half cents per mile.
The results of the K, U. students' experiments will be presented as follows:

Would Bring Kansas City Students t the University of Kansas for Their Education
TO ORGANIZE MISSOURI CLUB WOMEN TAKE TO HIKING
To devise means of getting a greater number of Missourians to come to the University of Kansas, will be the aim of the Missouri Club, which will be organized in Room 110 Fraser Hall, Thursday night at 7 o'clock. There has been a gradual decrease of students from Missouri, and especially Kansas City, in the last few years, and the promoters of the club hope to remedy this. It is proposed to take some school organization, such as the Glee Club, or at auditions, a member of the city speakers, at their assembly. In all probability a banquet "ill be given to prospective men from the Kansas City high schools, some time during the holidays or next summer. There are over fifty students here from Missouri.
Rare Rock Specimen Found
Rare Rock Specimen Found
A rare specimen of rock showing tar in its surface of calamite and galena, with crystals of chalcopyrite was one of several very interesting specimens of lead and zinc ore brought from the Galena-Joplin zizid district last week by Prof. George Belchic of the department of chemistry. There was also a lump of ore covered with large, clear crystals of calcite making an extremely beautiful specimen.
Professor Belchir spent three days of last week in the mining country sampling the sediment of slime-ponds in connection with his work on "Flotation." Flotation is a new method of extracting zinc from lead ore or materials called "slimes," which is now a waste in the zinc district.

Evans Drug Store 829 Massachusetts street
The enthusiastic interest which Dr. Goetz and her assistants have taken in the women of the University of Colorado have made exactly that condition possible.
"We want every girl in the University to spend at least one hour out of doors these glorious fall days just being her real self and laying in a large enough supply of oxygen to carry her through the study hours of the winter," said Dr. Goetz. "We want crowds of girls to hike with us. Later names are to be chosen for the different bunches and each girl will time herself on the trip. Then about Thanksgiving time, when the girls are more accustomed to the exercise, we are going on an all-day hike out in the mountains with our pinners, or have the time of our team, course the hikes aren't so long now, only three miles, but we will increase the distance until by then we will have developed a fine bunch of broad-chested hikers."
829 Massachusetts street
"The girls are always back at the gym by 5:30," said Miss Pratt, "and have had a wonderful hour of sunshine and bracing air."
The hikes are open to all University girls and are in charge of Miss Pratt. They take place every Tuesday from 4:30, starting from the gymnasium.
