He knows the difficulty of financing Christian movements, and he has never asked for his salary. However, with the opening of the present school year, the officers of the association started a campaign, the first lap of which was finished last week, to raise money to finance the work of the body for the year and to pay Hoffmann his back salary. And, since he keeps in close touch with the work at the University, Hoffmann knew what was being done. He also knew from experience that the men were up against a hard fight, and as usual he wanted to help. Accordingly he wrote Hugo Wedell, secretary of the cabinet, telling him that he wanted the Y. M. C. A. to consider its debt to him cancelled, and wished the association the greatest success for the year. While it is not probable that the cabinet will accept Hoffmann's generous offer, the members value the letter highly, as proof that some men in the world still have really big hearts. MYSTERIOUS "HUEVO ROAST" ANSWERS EUROPE'S CALL Y. M. Secretary Gets Leave of Absence and Sails Away Without Salary This is a story of a man with a big heart. His name in Con Hoffmann and, until last spring, he was secretary of the University Y, M. C, A. At that time Hoffman saw a chance for greater service on the prison camps of Europe, and in the prison camps of Asia and India; he was given a leave of absence from the University, and sailed for Europe. Novel Stunt for First Junior Women's Mixer on November Six A "huevo roast!" What's that? Every woman who joins in the first junior mixer will have this mystery on the morning of November 6. Send the Lily Kansan Home A junior class has never before had a women's mixer and since this is the first one of the series this year, each member on the committee is doing all in her power to make this a glorious success. The "huevo roast" is to be the first stunt for the junior women and this is to take place early Saturday morning, November 6. This was the decision of the mixer committee which met Wednesday evening. "In what informal way can all the junior women be entertained so that they will all have a good time and get acquainted?" This was the question running through the discussion at the meeting. There are plenty of old ways of conducting a mixer but the committee hit upon a new scheme. The nominal sum of fifteen cents is all it takes to get "tagged" to be in for this early morning "huevo rosa" for distribution on Wednesday or distribution by Monday morning. Every junior woman who takes part in this stunt will beyond doubt have a "time of her life." The more the merrier. "I believe," said Margaret McElvain, chairman of the committee, "but this 'huevo rost' will win favor this year. The question is it is something out of the ordinary." If every senior pays his one dollar fee toward the memorial, $400 will be collected. The names of all seniors have been proportioned among twenty-five members of the class, and it will be their duty to collect. "Every woman out!" some seniors have paid, but there is still a large amount to be collected. Every Monday, the names of all the seniors who have paid will be listed, and it is hoped that by the end of next week, all the money will be collected. The seniors have not definitely decided what the memorial will be. If enough money can be collected, the memorial committee would like to have a gate-way, as an entrance to the campus, constructed. SENIOR COMMITTEE WILL COLLECT MEMORIAL FEES E. R. Hess, Druggist 742 Mass. St. Pop corn balls, pop corn crips and Butter-Kist pop corn at Wiedemann's—Adv. We Solicit University Patronage Prof. C. A. Shull, of the department of botany, believes that the grass should not be burned off from mosses every year but should usually be removed. LET GRASS FERTILIZE GROUND-PROF. SHULL "As a general rule," he said when interviewed today, "I would suggest that the leaves and dead grass be left on the campus and lawns in the fall. Such a deposit forms a mulch that protects the grass during the cold, and keeps the soil from drying on the surface in the spring. It a*so gives over its nitrogen to the soil, thus adding in fertilization. "On the other hand, the burning of rank growths of weeds is an advantage of the extent that it destroys the seed and small insects. This process of burning material on the fields stilizes the soil, thus giving the nitrogen-fixing bacteria a better chance for life. These small organisms take the nitrogen from the soil air and transform it into plant food. We can true that a certain number of the bacteria are destroyed in the fire but those that are leaked much more rapidly than they do under normal conditions as the organisms that prey on them are also destroyed. "This whose problem is a cycle revolving around the supply of nitrogen. This is the main fertilizing element and every effort should be made to conserve and increase the supply of nitrogen in the soil." 25 K. U.

Hard water, if used for washing, must be softened. The usual way of softening water is to put chemical preparations in it. This is putting more impurities and "dirt" in the water, and harmful chemicals injure clothes. That Is Why We Use Distilled Water in our laundry. It is the softest water obtainable. And it is CLEAN water—water that can absorb the dirt from the clothes in a natural way. It is purer than rainwater, for it does not wash off a roof, then set in a cement reservoir. Distilled water means cleaner clothes and uninjured fabrics. ANOTHER WHY The Lawrence Steam Laundry 908 Mass. St STUDENT AGENTS: C.M. Carter, B1701; Harry Harlan, B1207W. Phones 383.
