A VOLUNTARY TESTIMONIAL
THURSDAY, MARCH 25, 1915.
If there is any group of people on this Hill who need a sanctuary, a green spot in the desert, a haven of rest and refuge, it is the women of the faculty. They need it even worse than the men did, because the strain of the daily grind is harder on them, owing to the different organization of their nervous systems.
They need a place where they can turn around without stumbling over a freshman; where they can have a little rest from "Sympathy" and "Ballin' the Jack"; where they can find a magazine that isn't being used to keep card scores on; where they can eat a meal without being requested to pass the 86 or shoot the punk, or having to listen to sophomore wit and tales of who got bawled out in whose class this morning.
In case you haven't guessed it, this is a boost for a University Women's Club. Having bored and burdened a goodly number of faculty women in our time, we are strong for anything that promises to alleviate their lot. And we figure that a club similar to what the men now enjoy would go far toward making life worth living.
After what they endure all day long these women who are giving their best to a lot of unresponsive and unappreciative dubs, and expending vast quantities of energy in trying to induct the glimmerings of ideas into their mentalities, these women need a place where they can enjoy a little real human society and intelligent companionship.
GOOD STUDENT GOVERNMENT
A few cases of petty thieving have been unearhed by the city and University authorities during the last few days, but the names of the guilty ones were withheld on their promise to leave school. If the students had not promised the authorities would have proceeded along the usual lines of such cases.
This is good student government. Their names not made public the men are given a chance to make good, after leaving school. And any future cases are nipped in the bud by the knowledge of the disposition of the present cases, and their potential results.
THE MONKISH DEVIL
"When the devil was sick the devil a monk would be; when the devil was well the devil a monk was he."
When the Water Company faces the voting of water bonds for a municipally owned water plant it has good
wells, is going to give better service, is supported by "thinking persons," and gives "ample" supply.
When the Company has a clear path the water is brown, murky, comes at times, the fluid is sworn at by all persons, and the supply is inadequate.
SIGN COMMUNICATIONS
The Kansan has received an unsigned communication relating to prohibition in Kansas. Since the rule at the office demands that all communications be signed, not for publication purposes, but as evidence of good faith, the writer should send his name to the office as soon as possible. Then the communication will be printed.
Chasing the Glooms
WHY I KICK
It is not a bone the weather
About which I wish to speak.
Nor the fifty million patterns
We've been havin' for a week.
And it's not that Old Man Winter
Seems to stick a bit too long—
Bluffin' with a freezing zephyr
Bumm with a Reezing keenny
Every robin's thought of song.
But I kick because in dressin'
If you mind the windin' your rule
Half the time you spend in changin'
And the rest in feeling "fool."

Pandora's Box
WHAT DO WE CARE?
There's a heap of misfortune in the world—at least if you can judge from the long-faced, dismal looking individuals on this campus—the folks who forget and their smiles upside down, and who've spilled the bluing bottle on their disposition instead of in the wash-tub.
The world will all be laughing, and you'll be going a'ong with your lips puckered into a whistle and your hands jingling those nickels in your pocket. If you don't want them are just nickels, either for you aren't bothering about such a small thing as when you can pay your cleaning-bill. But any way, first thing you know along of the a doleful, scowling individual of the species Man, who might like to turn into Jack's giant and "grind your bones to make his bread."
"What on earth are you whistling for," he growls at you. "Don't you know that I am hard-up Man? Just lost a big wad in a little parlor game when I was just about to pawn my best suit in consequence, Why, no telling when I'll get to see my girl again. She wouldn't look at me in this thing. "He twists his face up into an unbecoming knot, begins to whet his teeth to chew me up.
"Why, you should worry about money," you say, slapping him on the back. "Your roomie will lend you a knife to cut your allowance soon. It's almost the first of the month! You'd better be glad you get a check the size of yours. Mine just gives me enough to buy me a hamburger and a glass of milk for dessert. And you run along to get out of the huge shadow he's casting.
"I don't know what's the matter with me this evening." Mary Jane whines. "I wish you wouldn't laugh so much. I don't think that joke was a bit funny, and besides—I'm blue, and everything's gone wrong."
Well, you may not be getting the drift of these gentle hints. But any way, remember that other folks aren't always in the mood to have just stubbed your toe, or if your new party-dress didn't come in time, or if you've broken your biggest doll, or if you were stung the last time you asked for a date. Knowably she a bit tired of hearing heartless—except for its own misfortune. So don't be a howler.
"Oh, shucks," you say, "cheer up, and come out of the dumps. They never did do any good, and you're only making your eyes red and your nose blue. You might that's the very best way possible to stop a flow of tears."

THE MELANCHOLY DAYS
(Transdenazalized from Willie Cullen Bryant's "Death of the Flowers")
They were the children we have come, the goddess of the year.
Of wooing winds and cooping brooks and green skies bright and clear. Down on the campus strolling slow, a boy and girl together

Students in some of our colleges show a most perverse refusal to be drawn into the movement for summer camps and military courses. We have already commented on the fact that we are strongly against the military studies to be established by the faculty next winter. The Harvard Crimesh has now followed suit and attacks the summer-camp proposal in two editorials, one in which he calls "active opposition" to the enterprise. It does not deny that this is, for those who like it, a pleasant and cheap way to spend six weeks of the summer vacation, but it points out that Gen. Wood himself places the chief emphasis on training and will do in spreading sound information as to the "present military needs of the country." In other words, they are particularly desired as a useful

Old John Tellit, whose daughter has three boy sprouts that call regularly with cargoes of light conversation and punk chocolate, says that he will eventually bring the prising all the territory from the back yard gate to and including the front sidewalk, and that neutrals should beware of tresseping after 7 o'clock p. m.; dechares that the enemy will intoxicate him, that he will thoroughly mine the war zone with floating bricks, and that his submarine Canineous bearing the license tag "U-23" will assist him in the fight against the enemy—amstetten Optimist.

The voices and their laughter gave
In the soft, sweet realm of rest;
When the shadows of evening gather
Enshrould the scenes of day
We are shown by the Infinite Father The stars on their high pathway.
And the sun has sunk in the west,
And our pain and sorrow is blended
STARS OF EVENING
Shine on in your heavenly pathway
Infinite goals of dreams!

When the toil of day is ended
Do you know, I have two of the nicest men in the world in two courses. One of them got through the lesson today ten minutes earlier than usual, and what do you think? Instead of drawing out some uninteresting passages, he said, "You are dismissed." Well, I just about facedited from the joy of it, but recovered sufficiently to use those ten minutes to write you.
I am so happy today I thought for once in my young life I'd write you a cheerful letter. Perhaps. I have always been professional that keep chafing youths and madness in class until way after the whistle blows. Well, I am today I am singing the praises of those protis who have two great friends; more—grains of humanity in them.
Flames From the Bush
Who wrestle and pray and shine On the youth fresh from Thy
And our pain and sorrow is blended
In the soft, sweet realm of rest;
Now, don't you think that was sensible and fair? We finished the translation sooner than usual because we knew it a little better. Why shouldn't he be considerate and show us his appreciation for our extra extention? (I believe it was just because I was less asked, but I know it was.) We are all crazy about this prof, and I'll wager that we learn just as much from him as the one who waits until after the whistle blows.
Dear Aunt Sophie:
And lead us on to God.
Well, my ten minutes are up, so good beye, dear Aunt Sophie.
My other prof had us over, to his house the other night, and we did have the best time ever—had a nice little program, and he danced for us when I was there. Then we had refreshments. Now that in itself was fine, but what was much more thoughtful in him, he didn't assign a lesson for next day, so none of us thought that we should have a better time than ever. Hence we had a better time than ever.

Some of these coats have patch pockets,
some haven't; some are lined, some not;
some are without any padding or surplus

The New York Sun's photographers have just returned from the firing line of Europe. They brought back the most stirring, tragic, awe-inspiring collection of motion-pictures in the world's history. The camera men risked their lives to secure pictures showing the decisive battles on both the eastern and western stages of the war. There are no fakes, no posing, no ill雾面 plot or vapid love story, but the deep reels of the world's greatest tragedy.

LAWRENCE GETS PICTURES OF
THE EUROPEAN CONFLICT
The Iowa and Kansas bill's provide for hospital treatment and clinical aid for certain crippled children who would be unable to obtain it without state aid. They have resulted in making many persons self-supporting and independent citizens, according to Chancellor Frank Strong.
We can save you money on each week's board with our combination meal tickets.
The Iowa crippled children's bill, modelled after that of Kansas, has become a law, according to a report received here today from W. R. Boyd, chairman of the Iowa State Board of Education. Mr. Boyd had solicited the aid of Chancellor Strong of the University of Kansas and Associate Schmidt of Columbia School when this bill was first considered by the Iowa legislators and reported that their letters were of help in obtaining its passage.
Through the efforts of the manager of the Bowersock theatre, Lawrence people will get to see some real genuine war pictures.

means to carry on the militarist propaganda in this country. Of course our generals know that you cannot turn out an officer in six weeks—some of our infantrymen have been asserting that it takes three years to make a infantryman. What they must do is to young men with militaristic notions at their most impressionable age. If the plain people of this country knew the facts as to the military propaganda that is so persistently being carried on this country by army leaders, officers, and leagues, and armament makers they would view the case much as does the Crimson.-N.
