WOMEN OWN MYERS HALL NEW BOOKS FOR LIBRAR
Building Belongs to Christian Women's Board of Missions and Is Run by Same Organization
Not many students of the University know that Myers Hall is owned by the Christian Womens Board of Missions at Indianapolis, Indiana, an organization with an income of about one half million dollars a year.
Myers Hall was built in three sections, the first consisting of a modern ten room house occupied at the present time by Dr. Arthur Braden, who has charge of the Christian Bible chair there. The second section was completed in 1901. It contains two large libraries, each with two thousand books, one also of which is at five thousand dollars. The Y. M. C. A. and the Methodist student pastor offices are also there, besides five large classrooms.
The thirds action was completed in 1912, has the large auditorium on the second floor which will礼堂 for many of the stairs are the offices of the Y. W. C. A.
UNIVERSITY WOMEN AND THEIR COLLEGE IDEALS
Until last year Oread high school classes were held in the Hall, but with their removal to the new Oread campus, they again used only for religious purposes.
Wellesley enjoys the distinction and advantage of being founded with definite ideals to guard. Ideals are slow and often time painful growth.
Mr. and Mrs. Durant gave to Wellesley College not only financial founding but a greater and higher gift: its purposes and ideals.
Wellesley College was founded by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Durant of Boston, who dedicated their country estate at Wellesley in memory of their only son.
"First of all, Wellesley was to stand for a vital and growing Christianity. The college motto 'Non Museurstri and reseñat' was taken from the words of Christ.
"Wellesley was to represent no less uncompromisingly the highest standards in education. It was offering to young women the equivalent of what their brothers were getting at our best colleges for men, and demanding the utmost thoroughness in preparation and in academic work.
"But for all her intellectual mins, Wellesley was to stand firmly for 'distinctive womanhood.' The typical Wellesley girl was to be no less a woman, because a student of subjects bitherto reserved for men; no less a lady, because a member of the college world; no less a lover and exponent of beauty because dedicated to usefulness.
"These three great ideals—the Christian, the acadmic, the feminine—every successive administration at Wellesley has loyalty accepted and transmitted."—New England Magazine.
Abraham L. Obenchain, of South
Whitley, Ind., is suing Purdue Uni-
versity for $25,000 damages for the
death of his son in the last tack scrap, Sept. 19, 1043.
The complaint alleges that Purdue University through its officers and authorized employees, organized, conducted, tolerated and encouraged a student's failure in grading, and a vicious fight between the enrolled students in the school.
As a substitute for the honor system, Butler College is considering the establishment of a Student Affairs Committee. The main duties of the new organizations will be to exercise authority over all examinations and charges of cheating developing therein.
Thirteen Volumes on Social Problems Music and Sociological Studies
Subjects
Thirteen new books have been added to the shelves of the library in the pot.
Music lovers will welcome the addition of eight volumes of Wargers music.
Santliche Musikdramen, published by Breitkopf and Hartel of Leipzig, Germany, is a series of books that is considered a treasure in every music library. Because of the present difficulty in obtaining books of this nature in complete and exact scores, these volumes are of great value.
"Jewish Life in Modern Times" by Israel Cohen is another new addition book which should prove of interest to all students of social problems. The author is a good clear writer and is well informed on this subject. The book is published by Dodd, Mead & Co., of New York. It will be found on the second floor of Spooner Library.
Four volumes of interest to the sociologist were added to the stacks yesterday. "Social Education," by Colin A. Scott is as its name suggests a discussion in two volumes of the value of education in dealing with sociological problems. G. M. Price has depicted in his new book "The Modern Factory" the conditions of factory life as revealed to him in his recent investigations, while "Out of Work" by Frances A. Kelley deals with the ever important unemployment question. The other volume is a treatise on "Social Center" by E. J. Ward.
Let's Try This on the Physics Clock
That anything would be able to run after having been sunk in the Kaw River for four years is almost inconceivable, but this is the truth about the clock which now has its place in the school. At the time of the border warfare the clock was being brought up the river, when the boat carrying it was sunk by border ruffans.
Nothing was done at the time to rescue the clock, and there it lay until four years later when it was discovered. It was taken cleaned and placed in the first Lawrence school house which was also the first University of Oklahoma school was built the clock was moved again. It has never given any trouble in keeping time, and is ticking away as well as ever.
The Kanan has come into possession of a piece of evidence that seems to prove conclusively that there are no old maids in Prof. G. E. Putnam's 10:30 economics class. Tuesday morning a wee, cowin'r, tim'vous beastie of a mouse strayed into the room. Not a scream was heard; not a boot nail married a chair seat; all that could be heard was the voice of Professor Putman, "and now we come to the seventh reason why——"
Sororites on the whole seemed to have fared better than the fraternities, getting about their usual run of freshmen women.
An elaborate system for the investigation and detection of fraud on examinations has been devised. The honor system heretofore in vogue has not been satisfactory, but the new plan is said to be more adequate.
The lip of truth shall be established forever; but a lying tongue is but for the moment.—Prov. 12:19.
In spite of the vigorous rushing policy at Ohio State which accompanied the change from May 1 to registration day pledging, several fraternities were unable to announce any freshman additions.
MAY GIVE B. D. DEGREE ARGUE MONROE DOGTRINE
f Report of Local Committee is Adopted, Christian College Will Offer It
If the report of the local committee of the Christian church for a new school of theology is accepted at the national meeting in March, students can spend six years on Mount Oread and get an A. B. and B. D. degree.
Although having no connection with the University, the new school will be located in Myers Hall, which is owned by the Christian church, and an A. B. degree from the University or some other institution, not for entrance. Although having colleges in all the neighboring states, the Christian church has none in Kansas
The plan of bringing this new Bible College in close connection with the state university is proposed in order that students preparing for the ministry may not be hampered by having to attend smaller schools or opportunities for wide reading and research and many associates are impossible.
Chancellor Strong today expressed approval of the action taken by the Student Council in regard to the election frauds.
The Chancellor Approves
"In view of the possibilities of fraud in the present election laws," he said, "they should be so altered as to absolutely prevent any illegalities in the future. Furthermore, the Council should be supported in its efforts to improve the University politics by the whole student body."
