WILL BATTLE FOR TRACK SUPREMACY
Annual Jayhawk Cornhus ker Struggle on McCook Field Tomorrow.
AN EVEN CHANCE FOR VICTORY
Kansas looks good for firsts in both the hurdles, the two mile, the high jump, the broad jump, and the pole vault. Nebraska on the other hand is the candidate for first in the mile, the half mile, the discus, the 220 dash. The results of the 100, the quarter, the shot put, and the relay are in doubt.
Nebraska Strong in the Half and the Mile—Woodburys May Enter Two Events.
Nebraska has a star man in the half and the mile. Anderson who is depended upon to win these events for the scarlet and cream defeated Steele and Johnson of Missouri in both the Missouri Valley and Western Conference meets last year. His record over the mile is 4:26 and he has a better record in the half than any of the men upon whom Kansas can depend to take that event this year.
GRIBLE MAY BE OUT OF IT
Christmas will probably take the
220 as he has been running that
distance in great shape. Gribble who
was the Kansas hope in this event
strained a tendon in his leg in the
Inter-class meet and may not be able
to start the race. Stuckey may, how-
ever, give a good account of himself.
NUMBER 72.
In the Nebraska-Ames meet, the Cornhuskers won with ease but the records made were for the most part slow. This may be accounted for, however, as the day of the meeting was very windy and also by the fact that the winners were not pushed except in little, which went to Anderson in 428.
The entries are as follows:
100 yard dash - Kansas; Davis,
Stuckey, Gribble Smith. Nebraska:
May, Christmas, Racely.
The Woodbury boys are attempting to gain the consent of their parents to enter one event each. If it is granted, Buzz will broad jump, and Tod will vault vault. That would look like eight points for Kansas in each of those events.
Mile run-Kansas: Patterson, Murray, Davis, Adair. Nebraska: L. Anderson, Bates, Boggs, Becker, Kennedy.
130 hurdles—Kansas—Hazen,
Prench. Nebraska—Russell.
Kragge.
220 hurdles—Kansas: ifazen, Perry, Davis, Greenlees. Nebraska: Barney, Wessel, Mills. Nelson.
440 yard dash—Kansas: Smith Black, Davis, Fairchild. Nebraska Brannon, Barnev. Beaver.

CAPTURE THIRTEEN SNAKES
Eight Rattlers And Five Copperheads
Nosed Caged in Museum.
Eight rattlesnakes and five copperheads were captured by Prof. R. D. Lindsey, Chas. D. Bunker, and Theo Rocklund near Lawrence yesterday. The men went out after worms for the zoology department and the thirteen snakes are the result of their search.
This is a pretty big snake story but Mr. Bunker, curator of mammals has the snakes in a cage in the basement of the Museum.
HODDER TELLS OF AMERICAN CARTOONS
University Daily Kansan i First College Daily to Present Caricatures
"As far as I know, the University Daily Kansan is the first college daily that has undertaken to present college caricatures," said Prof. F. H. Hodder in his illustrated lecture on the American cartoon last Tuesday.
The lecture covered the period of the Civil war up to the Spanish war of 1886 at which time the weekly military matters appeared in Puck and Judge.
"These cartoons," the professor said, "were very effective and influential." The most popular designs during the Civil war were reduced in size and stylized. "The idea of 1872 the newspaper caricatures appeared and displaced the old style lithograph.
The illustrations of the Tweet Ring drawn by Thomas Nast attracted the students attention most. Professor Hodder pointed out that the drawings of the Tweed Ring were very forceful and effective and said that Tweed offered Nast a half million dollars if he would draw drawing and go to Europe and stay there; of course Nast refused.
In 1874 he stimulated the Republicans by his protravel of the Republican elephant. The elephant is still drawn today.
During the campaign of 1880 a new process of color printing appeared and Joseph Keppler's comic drawings abounded in the weeklies. There has been a lot of controversy over those of our time, especially those of McCutchion are light, but influential
Professor Hodder will give the last of his lectures Thursday afternoon at 3:30 in Fraser hall.
THREE HUNDRED SENIORS
HAVE NO GRANDMOTHERS
Invitation Committee is Not Getting Orders Like Last Year—Tomorrow The Last Chance
Only one hundred and fifty members of the senior class have friends to whom they wish to forward commencement invitations.
WILL LIST SIGMA XIS
A brief history of the organization and growth of the local organization is included in the catalog. It is expected that the complete hook will be issued during the present month of May.
The members of the Kansas Iota chapter of the national Sigma Xi fraternity will be given mention in a general catalog which the general secretary is having prepared. Every member of the organization will be listed with his present address and present work. The corresponding secretary of the local chapter, Prof. W. J. Baumgartner, now has the final proofs of the pages devoted to the Iota chapter.
The invitations this year are the most elaborate ever issued at the University of Kansas and for this reason the apparent lack of interest is all the more noticeable. To date only 1,500 have been ordered by the class of 1912 and this does not begin to afford a comparison with the order for 4,000 given by the class of 1911. The invitation committee will be at the check-stand tomorrow morning, but no orders will be accepted after

ENGINEERS DANCE IN A SPOTLIGHT
Novel Feature Pleases Onlookers and Discomfits Victims--Music Was Good
HAWORTH HONORS THE MINERS
Serves Them Two Course Luncheon-
Prizes Presented at The End of
Fourth Dance.
A fitting climax to the delightful Engineers Day was the dance which was held in Robinson Gymnasium in the evening. Haley's orchestra of Kansas City furnished the music and it was all that could be desired. It was a trifle too liberal with the encores, however, which necessitated the elimination of two dances in order that it might close promptly at 12 oclock.
The room was decorated with white and pea-green trimmings. Japanese lanterns shed a subdued light and the group of tiny vari-colored bulbs in one corner had a very pretty effect. Each school had a particular section reserved for it with the shield of that department glowing with electricity above it. At the entrance, balconies and oak lights were thrown on the dancers as they whirled over the floor, to the discomfiture of the victims and the joy of the onlookers.
After the fourth dance, Dean F. O. Marvin, assisted by B. E. Dodge, manager of the track team, and E. O. Rhodes, president of the Engineers, presented the prizes which had been won in the events in the afternoon.
After the eighth dance Professor Haworth took the boys from the mining school over to Haworth Hall and served them and their partners with a delightful two course luncheon. At this luncheon informal talks were made by Chancellor Strong, Mr. Strong, Professor Twnhofel, Professor Young, Professor Todd, Charles Coats, Charles Hainbach and Miss Beulah Murphy, and Miss Margaret Darran sang a charming solo. Professor Haworth expressed his delight again and again that such a small number of boys that the School of Mines has should win two loving cups that afternoon and come within a point and half of winning the meet.
The entire evening was highly successful and the engineers should be complimented on their managing the event. It was an enjoyable occasion for all.
MUST BE IN FRIDAY
Arch MacKinnon Will be a Check Stand to Receive Petitions.
The announcement of the final date for candidates to file their petitions together with the fifty cents fee was made this morning by Mr. MacKinnon. He will be at the cheek stand in Fraser hall Friday morning from ten until eleven o'clock to receive petitions and the fees.
K. N. G. BOYS BUSY POLISHING BAYONETS
"Well, how are things coming? a Dally Kansan reporter asked Thermo this morning.
All petitions for membership and offices on the Men's Student Council must be handed to the president of the Council, Arch MacKinnon, before six o'clock Friday evening.
The election for the Men's Student
Council will be Australian
bundled. Thursday May 30.
Mr. MacKinnon also calls the attention of the students of the College to the fact that the election of the president and other officers for the president is not only an election that candidates for these offices should make their announcements soon. This election will be in the charge of Don McKay, the president of the College.
The Weather.
"Fine," was the prompt reply from Thermo, as he carefully adjusted the carburer of the new engine which he is mounting on his airplane. "Baro says that tomorrow will be fair and warmer, so I'm preparing for a high flight."
Rumor Says National Guards Will Enter Mexico Within
CAPTAIN STEELE WANTS MEN
a Month
company's Fighting Strength 125
Kansas Troops Through Lower
California - Officers Confer
Company's Fighting Strength 125-
If you desire to go to war, give your name to Captain Steele of the K. U. company of the K. N. G., and the end of this month or the early days of June will see you campaigning against the Mexican fighting hombre-perhaps. Many are the rumors that have flouted around within the last year concerning war with Mexico, but this latest one is beginning to look serious. The war department has had the high officers of the K. N. G., in conference and trouble is so firmly expected by the Guard officers in this state that preparations for it have begun.
The company will be increased to its war strength of 125 men in case we invade the land of section hands, and this is the reason Captain Steele is collecting autographs. Plenty of men have signified their intention of enlisting if the war begins before school is out, so he is especially anxious for the names and summer addresses of those who would go later.
According to the rumor all the guards will be called out and three expeditions will enter Mexico, one at Vera Cruz, one at El Paso and one by way of Lower California. It is expected that the Kansas troops will take the latter route where the most fighting is expected.
The local company, which is now known as the First Provisional Co. will be designated Co. K before it starts, the company which had that letter having been recently mustered out
MISS STEPHENS '10 WAS
MARRIED TODAY AT NOON
Miss Elizabeth Stephens, class of '10, and Dr. Lee Eugene Haughey, Washburn '08, of Topeka, were married today at noon, at the home of the bride's aunt, Mrs. J. W. Green, by the Rev, Mr. Edwards of Trinity Church. Miss Stephens is a member of the Pi Betaphi sorority.
SENIORS ENTERTAIN
Girls Give Reception for Faculty Ladies Today in Westminster Hall
The color scheme was carried out in lavender and white. The reception hall was decorated in Apple blossoms and the living room and dining room in lavender and white lilacs. The favors were bunches of violet.
The senior girls of the University, entertained the faculty ladies at a reception this afternoon from 3:30 to 5:30 at Westminster hall. Nell Martindale, secretary of the senior class, Dena Ellis, Hannah Mitchell, Jennie May Richardson, and Gale Gossett received the guests.
Glendale Griffiths, Mabel Unrich,
and Myra Rogers served in the dining room.
A program was given throughout the afternoon by the senior fine arts girls.
ref. W, J. B. Baungartner Will Lecture Tomorrow Afternoon in Snow Hall.
"ANIMALS OF PUGET SOUND"
Prof. W. J. Baugartner of the department of zoology will give an illustrated lecture in Snow Hall lecture room tomorrow afternoon at 2:30. His subject will be "Animals of Puget Sound" and will be particularly interesting because Professor Baugartner has spent several summers studying and instructing at the research station at that place. The public is invited.
The annual election of officers will be held at the Westminster Guild social Saturday evening, at Westminster Hall. The tertium and other students are invited.
PHI ALPHA DELTS GAVE
PRETTY ANNUAL LAST NIGHT
The first annual party of Phi Alpha Delta law fraternity was given in Ecke's hall last evening and was attended by fifty couples.
The decorations for the evening were in purple and gold, the fraternity colors and in one end of the room a brilliantly light fraternity emblem was displayed Programs were booklets done in purple and gold. Dean Green and wife and Prof. H. W. Humble and wife were the chaperones.
Music for the twenty dances was furnished by Haley's orchestra o Kansas City.
APPROACHING END OF SCHOOL YEAR
Plans Are Being Made to Entertain Former Students at Commencement
at Commencement.
Having received from the State of Kansas sixteen years or more of instruction in the most important branches of human knowledge, four hundred young men and women will get their diplomas from the University at its approaching commencement, marking the end of their long journey from the first reader to the final text. In the minds of these young people, commencement has a serious aspect in spite of the fact that by reason of the more practical nature of modern education, they are much better fitted to begin making a living than were their predecessors. But there is nothing serious about the occasion in the minds of the old grads who come back each year to renew their youth by a week o
The plans for commencement are to include all of the time honored sports dear to the old grad as well as some new and entirely original stunts planned by the committee on features. The regatta to take place on Potter Lake, Monday June 2, will include swimming contests, canoeing with single, double and mixed crews, tilting and a water base ball game. Tuesday afternoon will present the Alumni vs. Senior baseball game with an old fashioned track meet, guaranteed not too strenuous to affect seriously the constitution of the alumni athlete, in which French, Murray and Woodbury will feature.
The Baccalaureat sermon will be given by Edward Alfred Steiner professor of applied christianity at Grinnell College, and one of the most noted writers on sociology at the present time.
Parades, band concerts and songs by the old college glee club will fill in between the more serious events which include the commencement address by Hamilton W. Mabile, associate of the Outlook, on "Works and Days."
More than a thousand guests will sit at the University dinner, the final event of the week, and the one which every alumnus tries to attend.
BEGIN WORK ON NEW HOME FOR SORORITY
Thetas Expect to Occupy House by Beginning of Next Year
Excavations have been made on the lot purchased by the Theta for a new house. The lot is on Indiana street, directly back of Professor Hodder's house. As soon as the cellar is dug Professor Hodder will build a ten thousand dollar house for the sorority.
When completed the house will have fourteen rooms. The lower floor, with the exception of the kitchen, being open so as to provide a good place for the house will be New England colonial style with a large porch on the south.
The sorority expects to be in their new home by the opening of school in September.
The fourth graduating piano recital was given last Tuesday evening by Miss Josephine McCammon before an appreciative audience. Miss Constance McCammon furnished the readings for the entertainment.
PLAN FOR COMFORT AT SOPHOMORE HOP
Ask Men To Wear Dark Coats and Light Trousers
FARCE DEALS WITH TWINS
Mistaken Identity Makes Fun—Manager Warns The Men in Regard to Smoking in Building.
Arrangements are completed for the Sophomore Hep to be given Friday evening in Robinson Gymnasium. The farce is ready for production and the music will be designed that the audience will not be disappointed in either the play or the music.
FARCE WILL LAST ONE HOUR
The farce deals in mistaken identity. Jack Mayfield and Jack Rayfield are twins who live in the same college town. Rayfield is a married man, however, and lives in the city with his wife. Mayfield is a student in the University, and is engaged to Leoline Hartford. The twins have been separar- or a number of years, and are not aware of their relation. Could a number of mixups occur in the wife and sweetheart mistake the two men. Everything ends well, however, and the men discover that they are twins.
FARCE WILL LAST ONE HOUR
The hop will start at 5:45 and the farce itself will last for an hour. The dancing will begin at 7:30 and a program of twenty-two dances will be given.
One feature of the party will be the full moon. A large number of chairs will be scattered about the campus in convenient and suitable places for the convenience of those who may not care to dance the entire program.
The party will be stricly a summer affair and the men in light [crussers and dark costs and the girls in white] would also make a very pretty combination.
Light but substantial refreshmills will be served.
Some of the song hits are "In't he a handsome man?" "Girl in the Picture," and "I'd rather be a twin than a triplet."
The management wishes to caution the men in regard to smoking in the halls of the building. The rule was violated at the Junior Prom and the faculty threatens to stop the practice by stopping the dancing immediately.

THURSDAY, MAY 2, 1912
AGAIN—THE COMMONS Do the students want a University Commons? Do they care to maintain a dining hall where they can obtain board of the finest quality, with large portions given, at a reasonable cost to the student—a place where experts are employed to plan and cook their meals, and provide them with the best food that may be obtained?
A Commons may not offer board to the student, immediately after its organization, at a lower cost per week than they may obtain already, but it will be enabled to offer a better quality of food for the money that is spent and in a short time the actual cost per week, may be reduced. The experience at other Commons among other student-bodies, shows that with an efficient management, the student may obtain better food at the Commons than outside.
If the students here want to show future patronage, to any organization that would care to invest the money in such an institution for the student-body, let them send in their ideas upon the subject to the Daily Kansan office on the coupon found on this page. Of the seven thousand meals that are served to University people every day, it is desirable to learn just what per cent, a commons could expect to serve.
In order to run and make expenses, it is necessary that a good portion should be served by the University dining system.
RESTFUL POSES
Most everyone nowadays, students,
professors, farmers, business men,
professional men and all, would like
to find some restful poses, but the
Ottawa Herald has simplified matters.
"Prof. Wilcox of K. U., a noted Greek scholar, has found some of the "restful poses" in Greek art. But anyone who has ever followed a cultivator all day and could get to the old sofa after supper, doesn't need any instruction in restful poses. That would be indeed unnecessary education."
THE ENGINEERS' CAGE
Observer is right when he suggests that after all, even though for the moment, the sight of some student caged and taking part in the Engineers' "doings" against his will and in a way that heaps ignominy and shame upon him, causes a revolt of feeling against the justness of such a trick.
It is, indeed, an easy matter for a half dozen stronger men to subdue one man and put him into a cage, all
Do You Want Commons?
But, how about the man in the cage? Suppose it were just anyone of the crowd who laughed at the predicament of the man who bore that shame, would all be so funny then? The altered point of view makes a difference.
as a prank for everyone else to laugh about and at.
Although some of our fellows seem, at times, to have queer spots in their "make-up"—are good-naturedly dubbed foolish or simple by their fellows—yet men should never forget that all are not so care-free that they lose all thoughts of a just pride for themselves, and to undergo shame such as was administered to one of our number by the Engineers is as painful to bear for the "queer" individual as for the best of jolly good fellows.
(If so, fill out this blank and drop into a University mail box tomorrow.

If the department of English of the University of Kansas has really begun a campaign against slang, it deserves the thanks of everyone who has ears to hear. That there is something to be said for slang cannot be denied. Those who disuse it and those who use it are not always actuated by a desire to degrade speech. At bottom, there is the search for newly-minded coins which in a Shakespeare the world applauds. The methods of some the methods employed are common to slang-writer literaryists, the seizing upon metaphorical expressions, the drafting of a noun to do service as a verb. But the practice is so overdone in quantity that the principle has been buried under a mass of nondescript verbal concoctions. Such a fevered movement must die a natural death in the end, but meantime the most-over-sensitive twentieth-century ear is being so violently abused as to make it questionable whether it will long have any power of discrimination left. The virtue of the campaign said to have been undertaken by the University of Kansas lies in its endeavor to strengthen the sense of the word values in persons who are not too old to reform —The Nation, March 28, 1912.
STRENGTHEN WORD VALUES
That they brought to bear upon that question a wealth of fact and appreciation of political principles which would have been creditable to any legislative assembly, is only surprising upon supernatural view. For that they achieved this is only a logical outcome of setting alert, intelligent young men to the study and discussion of current public questions.
UNIVERSITY DEBATES

Four young men of the universities of Kansas and Missouri have just debated the question, stated affirmatively, that the state could be applied to the state judicialy.

This service the collegiate and university debates are now doing. Incidentally, the extension divisions of the people's universities are carrying that same service out to the general youth of the state. Groups in most of the towns (limited in membership only by individual eligibility) may offer assistance and direction of the universities in the debating of problems which as voters they may need to determine.
One does not hear college and high school debates now on such subjects as "Resolved, that the pen is mightier than the sword," that Aaron Burr was a greater man than Thomas Paine, "that man is intellectually the superior of woman." As the schools are getting more into the common life—in what they teach the students, in serving as social centers, in co-operating with the State along all lines of practical endeavor—so in the department of debate they combine utilitarianism with the best of academic instruction.
This information is given as the only means of showing the demand for Commons to those who are considering their establishment.
From an intimate point of view it may be repeated that no intelligent person could hear the four earnest, finely equipped young men of Missouri and Kansas last night without being intellectually stimulated, without learning much that he likes to know, without realizing happily that there is a fine generation coming along.—Kansas City Star.

To the Daily Kansan:
Viewed from the sidelines, the enemers' parade was an exhibition calculated to increase one's respect for the School of Engineering and the students who stay there—with the exception of one feature of the parade. That was the cage, in which a freshman crouched, an unwilling participant in the "doings." There is nothing surprising in the fact that a dozen engineers can overpower an unsuspecting freshman—and nothing especially creditable to the engineers. The comments I heard along the line of the parade and afterward would not have pleased the men responsible for the cage incident, but they were conclusive that most students do not stand for play that is not fair play.

AMERICAN ATLHEtic
SPIRIT IN GERMANY
And the French Are Devoted to Pugilism----Like Power of Self- Defense
WHILE in this country there is increasing discussion concerning the exaggerated cult of the body as it is practiced in the colleges, the athletic spirit is reported to be making conquests among the European youth. The peoples of the Continent, it is to be noted, have never been so averse to the pursuit of physical exercise as in our contempt we are often driven to imagine.
Taking athletics in its very broadest sense as the appreciation and pursuit of the open air, we find that in Germany, for instance, the love of the open is probably as widely prevalent as in England or this country. Only with the German as a national hero of the Confederacy may minor degree, the passion manifests itself in a diffused and well-regulated manner.
GERMANS EXERCISE FOR RECREATION
It is less a matter of games and contests and more of pastime and recreation. The German pedestrian in his plumed hat, and knapsack on him, is an historical figure that still lives.
Students and college professor, clerk and professional man, still spend their annual vacation fortnight on the roads of the Black Forest, in the Thuringian glands, or across the frontier in the Bernese Oberland and Tyrol. The workingman to whom a prolonged vacation is denied has his week-end camp out parties, his open-air gymnastic drills.
The consumption of food is not usually recognized as a branch of athletics, but even the pleasant German habit of dining by the thousands out-of-doors is a manifestation of the same fundamental love for the open sky and the green earth.
Nor is there about gymnastic drill and the pleasant game of ninepins that aspect of the heroic which inheres in the manly exercise of running, jumping, and hurling ponderous weights to great distances.
AMERICAN IDEAS WINNING But now the strenuous American idea of physical culture is winning its way against the older and quieter methods. German moralists of the 1960s have learned to do America as the exemplar of success, are now voicing dissatisfaction with the flabby athletic ideas of the university student as expressed in the ceremonious sword-contests of the Mensur and elaborate beer-drinking competitions.
OLYMPIC GAMES A SPUR
In part it has been the influence of America, but in greater measure it has been the influence of the Olympic Games, for the latest renewal of which at Stockholm in June the most elaborate preparations are being made for the victories won at preceding Olympic festivals by the representatives of America has stimulated competition.
There is no likelihood that our primacy in this respect is as yet endangered. We have too long a start and our resources are quite out of proportion to those any other nation can bring into the field. Nevertheless, in various branches of sport the Continental nations have been developing serious contenders. They have done very well in the recreative sports—like golf, tennis, swimming, and rowing; and they are now turning their attention to the more specialized events—like jumping and
the sprints. Admirable features of the Olympic programme are the prizes for all-around ability. At Stockholm the established pentathlonic contest is to be supplemented by a "decathlon."
French sport has gone quite mad over pugilism. In the person of Georges Carpentier the country has developed a champion of international calibre, whose priases are now being hymmed with a fine Gallie elan by statesmen, poets, and members of the Academy. The press teems with accounts of the triumphal progress of la boxe and man on the boule-tenue be very ill suited to the time in the intricacies of le round, le knockout, and le count.
FRENCH PUGILISTIC MAD
That most estimable of family journals, Les Annales, features in one of its recent numbers a philosophical prose poem in praise of the squared ring, by Maurice Maerterlink, supplemented by articles on la musique, the poetry of Bergstrom and on the hygiene of boxing by Carpenter, and illustrated with the familiar physical presentments of Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries. The Maerterlink essay is in the familiar tone of subdued mysticism.
FOEM TO BOXING
The author of the "Treasure of the Humble" compares the extraordinary physical debility of the human animal for purposes of offence and defense, with the amazing resources displayed by the lower creatures. Man has naked the anat's tremendous strength to protect his protective carapace, nor the almost impregnable ambulatory fortifications of the snail.
But he does have his two flats and the skill of directing them toward vital spots, and of pouring into them the water and nervous energy of his body.
About all this there is an air that is not altogether primitive and of the flesh. M. Masterlink's passion for the fine brutal impact of the clenched flat is largely cerebral. We detect the touch of the man whose interest is in the inner meaning of things; and what inner meaning can there be so obviously external a fact as upper-cut or le knockout?
But if M. Masterlückn's enthusiasm is largely poetic freenzy, it is safe to infer that on the part of the ordinary Frenchman this newly awakened fondness for ficticus is part of the present renaissance of the French spirit, away from feminine decadences and self-scariacifications and lotus-catings, toward masculine self-con-fidence, toward those simple, healthy, primitive appaise which help a nation to make a firm stand when some other nation wants to deprive it of Morocco—New York Evening Post.
WOMEN IN COLLEGE
The first Woman's League was established at the University.
THE first Woman's League was established at the University of Michigan in 1855, and since that time practically all universities and colleges have adopted this plan. Based on the same principle, to promote college spirit among the girls and to carry on work wherever it is needed.
In a great many schools the Y. W. C. A. and Women's League work together and any college girl may be a member. In many schools, among women involved in the women's association makes the rules governing the girl's social life.
Some of the largest organizations for women are at Michigan, Illinois, Minnesota, Cornell and Wisconsin. At Barnard, Smith, Vassar and Wellesley, the Women's League holds the same position as the Associated Students and all girls are members. At Barnard a fine of 25 cents is made if a member is absent from a meeting. Such methods insure a large membership and an active interest in college.
In practically all the colleges the women have their own building and maintain it. Many have scholarship funds, and in Michigan the women helped to pay for the athletic field. This work is increasing in importance each year, and will soon be vital to the life of all colleges.
OLD FRIENDS IN VERSE
FAIRIES' SONG
We the fairies blilhe and antic,
Of dimensions not gigantic,
Though the moonshine mostly keep us
Oft in orchards frisk and peep us.
Stolen sweets are always sweeter;
Stolen kisses much completer;
Stolen looks are nice in chapels;
Stolen, stolen be your apples.
When to bed the world are bobbing.
Then's the time for orchard-robbing;
Yet the fruit were scarcely worth peeling
Were it not for stealing, stealing.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
WOODPECKER'S DEGREE IS ONLY A FAKE
It Appears now That He's not Entitled to Be Called an Engineer
The Red-headed Woodpecker was classed as a Campus Engineer in Tuesday's Engineer's Edition of the Daily Kansan. May be theEngineer's would not care to claim him as one of their number, had his true character been represented.
The Museum experts, speaking of the food habits of this bird, state conclusively that his economic importance is small. He is not an insect-egg and larva-gathering worker, as he is the Downey Woodpecker, nor does he drill for tree-killing worms and grubs like the Hairy Woodpecker. He does not drill in live wood at all, or ornithologists say, but uses them for feeding. That was of drilling in live trees for borer" that was attributed to him in Tuesday's Daily Knasan is the special field of the injurious Yellow-bellied Sapsucker; y that is not a resident of Kansas.
The Red-head has the reputation of being a lazy fellow that has got above hard work. He feeds, according to curator of the Museum, largely on winged insects, ants, beetles, some of which are beneficial, and on wild fruit. Individuals of his kind have been sensitized to the dangers though it is known by ornithologists that this is not a general habit of the species.
The only trait of his that could in any way include him in the class of engineers, is his custom of wedging nuts and grains of corn in the crevices in the bark of trees and in cracks in old posts, sometimes enlarging the crevice to the morsel. Then too he excavates his nest in decayed trees.
Even though he be proved an economic failure, he is an interesting bird of striking plumage and is well suited to the environment, although he may charge for the pleasure.

Burlington with a team of two girls and one boy will argue in favor of extending the championship while Ashland with two boys and one girl will oppose "women suffrage."
Ashland won last year. Should that team be given the decision this year, Ashland will own the big silver loving cup offered by the Regents of the University for the team winning two years in succession. Both schools are sentencing a delegation of rooters, and the University students out Friday night will hear real high school cheering as well as an enthusiastic debate upon the most important question before the people of Kansas today.

K. U. BEATS BAKER BY A 4 TO 1 SCORE
Little Excitement Except for the "Lion Roar" Yell of Methodists
NO, ZABEL DID NOT PITCH
Slightly Ineligible, But The Burden of This Tale Would Have Been About The Same.
Fifty loyal ones saw the K. U. spheroid-tamers bring the Methodists into camp yesterday at Baldwin to the tune of four to one. Not once in the melee did the Rock-chalkers on the bleachers give faint-heart, for from the preface to the back cover, K. U. had everything its own way.
Zabel didn't pitch. Scherer pleaded but Sherwin knew too much of Zabel's record here last year and anyway the Valley one-year rule barred him. Johnson, a south-winger officiated at the slab and the honors were even between him and Busiek, with the Methodists in charge against the argument. Bunny Wilson played first, and Deichman was to the middle garden.
Nothing happened until the first half of the fifth. Until then it was one, two, three. Busick striking out the first five men to face him, and Johnson doing almost as well. On hold, on there was a little flurry in the third. Ogden got a two-bagger; Deichman popped up second, and Ogden heeling it down to third bumped into the short-stop, and Ogden stopped. The man made second and then third on a sacrifice, but in trying to steal home was pinched a bare foot on the plate.
Now for the fifth. White started the celebration by sprinting home on an error at second; Deichman pulled up at an error, and Wilson scored him with a single. Collidge struck out leaving two to die on the field of battle. The Methodists were retired in their half, Pusick pitching only three balls.
In the last of the sixth, the Methodists got a base on balls, a batter hit by pitched ball, a swift one to third, and a long fly to center. When the dust lifted a Baker man was safely hugging home plate.
K. U. scored two more in the seventh and after that it was simply one, two, three, with no thrills except the Lion ran well, to-wait: "Let the Lion Run-r-r-r!"
Following the score by innings:
K. U... 0 0 0 0 2 0 2 0 0 4
Baker... 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1
FOUL TIPS
Five K. U. men walked the seventeen miles to Baldwin yesterday to see the game. They rode back.
When the K. U. rooters first gave Rock Chalk yesterday the Bakerites tried to drown out the little bunch.
Baker claims to be the only school in the country that has a "lion roar" yell. No doubt about it.
Ammons struck out twice, getting only one little single during the game.
The ice-cream parlor did a big business after the ice-cream came in from Lawrence on the 3:30 plug.
The hotel waiter was no respecter of persons. The team sat at the table one hour and 27 minutes before they got soup.
Shorty, the barber, rolled in about the third inning and the while rollicking on the side-lines the Methodists promptly dubbed him "Cutey."
Wilson covered first in such fine style that Hicks wasn't missed.

RICE WON FACULTY SPRINT
Timer Claims Popular Engineerin Professor Did it in 8 Flat, Breaking World's Record.
From the crack of the first gun, the second annual Engineer's field day was a howling success. Every event was close and the entries were numerous. The final score stood Mechanical 41, Miners $39\%$, Electricians $24\%$, Civils 15, and Chemicals 6, the Mechanicals managing to nose the Miners out of a small lead through the big individual score made by Hazen.
The feature events of the meet were the fat man's race and the faculty race. The fat man's race was captured by the cinder track fend, Tubby Lynch, in behalf of the Electricals. No time was taken on the event as the official timer in the excitement of the event for the first time. The faculty race of 100 yds was taken after a spirited contest by Professor Rice of the Civil engineers. The time for this event was exceedingly fast being given out as 8 flat. This if verified will probably stand as the world's

Yale Students Chose 13 out of 14 Board Members----Establish Rowell
Recall
The complete reorganization of Yale's athletics has now become a fact. The undergraduates now virtually dictate the sports at the university. The board consists of five alumni members and nine undergraduates. As 13 of the 14 are chosen by the students, the undergraduates hereafter will have a firmer hold on university athletic control than at any time since the faculty interfered in 1906, reformed football, and made drastic new rules for undergraduate management.
The new experiment will be watched with interest all over the country, and no doubt will be taken up by other colleges if successful. It really means that in future every student in a university or college will be able to get all the outdoor sports he may wish, whereas in the past he has been allowed to sit on the fence and cheer for the varisity whether it was baseball, football, rowing or track sports, and to watch about 30 men who have been carefully training in these sports, represent, because of their physical fitness, 2000 or 3000.
Under the new organization all this will be changed. Everyone who wishes to take part in outdoor sports will have the chance.
The recall idea has been embodied in the new Yale constitution, which provides that any act of the athletic committee may be reversed by a two-thirds vote of the members of university at any mass meeting.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 3, 1912.
WILL DISPOSE OF CREAMERY WASTE
Two University Professors to Keep Contamination From Kansas Streams
TEST PLANT AT TONGANOXIE
Will Take Care of 1000 Gallons of Material Daily—Use Chemicals For Purification
The disposal of creamy waste has long been a problem, not only in the state of Kansas but throughout this entire country as well. C. A. Haskins, instructor in civil engineering, and C. C. Young, state water analyst, have been working on this for the past two months and have now practically concluded their investigations.
Some of the cremeries in the state have been in the habit of allowing the cremery waste to flow into the nearby streams and thus contaminate them. This was brought to the attention of Mr. Young in his work in the water analysis department. Mr. Haskins has completed a plant for the purification and the disposal of the waste, and Mr. Young has conceived the chemicals which will be used in the purification process.
Mr. Young says that according to all indications this new invention should help a great deal in the keeping of the streams pure and from becoming contaminated.
A plant has been designed that will take care of one thousand gallons of waste and Mr. Young and Mr. Haskins will take it to Tonganoxie next week and test its value there as an experiment station. Tonganoxie has one of the largest cremeries in the state with 60,000 gallons of waste to dispose of each day so it will be an excellent place to try out the plant.
Phenomonal Freshman Pitches Out Nineteen Men in One Game
MICHIGAN HAS PRODIGY
That Michigan University will have one of the best college pitchers in the country available for their varsity team next year in George H. Sisler, freshman from Akron, O., if he does not sucumb to the offers of the big league magnates in the meantime, is the opinion today of the students who saw Sisler fan nineteen men in order to play a sophomore game yesterday. Sisler already has received offers from Comnie Mack, Hugh Jennings and several other big league managers, but so far has seen fit to stick to college.

Few Students Have Applied
ew Students Have Applie for Loans This Spring, Says Committee
Are students at the University of Kansas more than usually prosperous this year? The committee in charge of the Students' Loan Fund is wondering why it is that fewer demands have been made upon the fund this spring than has been the case for many years previously.
"We have had scarcely an application for a loan this semester," said Prof. M. W. Sterling, treasurer of the fund, yesterday. "Usually there are numerous applications from seniors who need help to finish their last year and get their degrees. In fact, the fund is generally most heavily drawn upon in the spring months. With many a senior it happens that the money he has saved for an education gives out a few months before he has reached the finish of his school career.
"The teacher I thought it possible that not many students are familiar with the Loan Fund and its purpose. It was established to help worthy students finish their schooling. A limited loan will be advanced to upperclassmen applying for it, who are willing to furnish a bankable note as security."
Some of the best men and women the University has ever graduated have been helped by the Loan Fund. The committee's concern over the apparent indifference of students to the fund indicates that they would rather keep the fund busy helping deserving students than see the money lying idle. Prof. S. G. Hunter, M. W. Sterling and B. J. Dalton, are the members of the committee in charge.
POSTPONE ELECTION
Petition of Juniors Honored--
"Stunt" System to Entertain
H. S. Visitors
At a meeting of the Men's Student Council last evening, it was decided to postpone the election of the edi-
nation for next year's Annual until next fall.
At the entertainment for the high school visitors tomorrow evening, the "stunt" system will be used. Depending on the dramatic clubs until so late has left but little time to prepare anything elaborate. Stunts will be put on by the Glee club, the Mandolin club, and by Root's tumbling team. Several members of the student council, aided by a few others will give a minstrel show.
Mrs. J. F. Jones, of Arkansas City, returned home today after a week's visit with her son, Thomas, a junior in the school of engineering.

TWO ENGINEERS ANNOUNCE THEMSELVES FOR PRESIDENT OF THE MEN'S STUDENT COUNCIL
The columns of the Daily Kasanw were opened for the announcements of platforms by candidates for the students council last week with a proviso that the statements from the committee come upon the council be contained within the website.
Today the Daily Kansan prints all announcements that were handed to the editor and on Wednesday, May 8, this column will be opened again for them by my men and any developments of platform plains these men may wish to make.
Statements from men running for membership on the Council will be limited to one hundred and fifty words. Statements from women running will be limited to three hundred words.
As a candidate for the office of president of the Men's Student Council I take this opportunity offered by the Kansas of stating the following facts.
I am a junior in the School of Engineering.
To the Daily Kansan:
I have served during the present year as a representative to the council from the School of Engineering. This years experience has been invaluable in working which this council has under work, but which is as yet unfinished.
At present the council is working upon a new athletic constitution favoring a larger representation of students and alumni upon the athletic board.
Another task before us is the working out of a new plan for the management of the Jayhawker so that the manager will receive a fair compensation for his services. A plan for the management of the Student Enterprise Association is nearing completion. It is important.
It is my opinion that it would be
U. S. HAS BROUGHT MARVELOUS CHANGE
J. C. Robbins in His Address Last Night Told of the Philippines
Philippines
J. C. Robbins, traveling secretary of the Student Volunteer Movement, spoke at the Y. M. C. A. meeting last night on "Imperialism and University Men." Mr. Robbins spent five years prior to 1909 as a missionary in the Philippines and says that the change which he witnessed there brought about by the United States was been marvelous.
advantageous to have on the council a student representative from the council
"The work of the United States in the Philippines is one of the proudest chapters in our history," declared Mr. Robbins, "and is a splendid example of unselfish altruism. When I arrived in Manila there was no Christian church or no hospital in the city. The most expensive building was the jail. This has been changed into a fine public school building and churches and hospitals have been built.

In speaking of giving independence to the Philippines, he said that the time for this has not yet come and that the immediate future of the Islands is bound up with that of the United States. Mr. Robbins defined missionary work as the science of social and moral uplift and declared that the work is "a man's job" and

"Absolute justice is a new thing in the Islands," Mr. Robbins continued. "Until the United States can hold the罪犯, the public was not even allowed to shlock."
The Botany Club pinicened at Vlnland, Wednesday. A dozen young botanists, accompanied by Prof. C. M. Sterling and Dr. Grace Charles, enjoyed the holiday, in the woods, picking wild flowers, and attempting to apply the knowledge gained in the class room, concerning them.
I have been in close touch with these matters during the past year and on this account I think I am well fitted toy continue the work which the present council has begun and to successful' problems which may arise in the future.

To the Daily Kansan.
The students should know what a candidate stands for and will do for the University, before voting for or against him.
I pledge, if elected President of the Mens Student Council, with the concurrence of the council, to eliminate all afflictions of graft in all University afitures.
I most heartily believe in a students' union building, a womans' dormitory and any other enterprises which will help the University. I am against all organizations, fraternities or clubs, professional or social, that claim to be representative bodies, but confine their membership to political factions.
If elected, I promise to be impartial in enforcing the present laws of the Matter.
I feel that if I have had any training that would fit me for this office, and enable me to serve the students, that it is my duty to do so. Do not vote for me because I am a barb. If you do not think I am a square, if you do not want to initiative and ability to do things, do not vote; it will take all of these elements to make one a trusted and efficient President of the Mens Student Council.

ATHLETES WILL FEAST IN GYM
After Meet Tomorrow the High School Students Will Be Entertained
After the ninth annual interscholastic track meet is over Saturday the athletes of the high school will break training at a banquet which will be served in Robinson gymnasium, by the domestic science department of the University and under the direction of the Men's Student Council.
After the feed is over Arch MacKinnon, president of the Student Council will start things off. An address of welcome by Chancellor Frank Strong will follow after which Coach W. O. Hamilton will present the medals and cups to the winners. The program for entertainment after school has been prepared and if the high school students are like the other people who have heard these attractions they will have a good time.
The program is headed by the Glee Club, and is followed in order by Root's Tumblers, Younggreen's Minstrels, and the K. U. Mandolin Club. The menu for the feast follows: Meat Loaf Mashed Potatoes Pasta
Butter and Kools Carnel Nuts, Ice Cream Cake Tags admitting the savwerer to the banquet are being held by the Student Council today for $56 each. According to the president of the Council the students who attend will get more than double their money's worth.
APRIL WAS JUST ORDINARY
Weather Man Was Not Trying for Records in Month Just Closed
The month of April just closed was only an ordinary month as far as weather conditions are concerned, according to the monthly summary prepared by Prof. H. P. Cady. The temperature was about as usual.
The only exceptional thing about the month was the fact that it was dryer than usual. Only four other Aprils on the record kept by the University have had a lower rainfall than September, and the midity was ten per cent below the average. The month was clearer than usual.
STUDENTS CONDUCT DEBATERS TALK ON ORCHESTRA CONCERT VOTES FOR WOMEN
Program Contains Lively Selections—Student Tickets Good
On next Wednesday night, May 8,
the University Orchestra will give
its annual concert, assisted by Dean
David Grosch, of Baker University,
as the soloist.
The orchestra has been holding weekly rehearsals under the direction of Dean Skilton, of the fine arts department, and has an unusually interesting program. Selections from "Midsummer Night's Dream" will be the feature of the program. The Intermezzo will be played and the "Clown Dance," in which a donkey is heard to bray with a very realistic effect. The funeral march will also be given, played by the oboe and the bassoon.
The overture from "Fra Diavob" will be the heavy number of the program. An interesting novelty will be a "Chinese Anecdote," a "Lady Ficking Mulberrys." This is a very beautiful little composition as well as being a novelty number.
Another feature of the concert will be the introduction of two student conductors. These boys have been spending two hours daily before the mirror with a stick, with wildly flowing hair and they promise some sensational gestures.
Dean David Grosch, baritone, of the Fine Arts school at Baker University will give a solo accompanied by the orchestra.
The recent change from high to low pitch has worked a great improvement in the orchestra. An entire new set of reed instruments was purchased to make this possible. Stick tickets will admit to the concert.
Following is the personnel of the orchestra. First violins, Wort Morse, concert master, Helen Hill, Frances Smith, William Hoyt. Second violins, Anna Murray, Blanch Simons, James F. Lawrence, Lee Samuel, Violas, Dorothy Keeler, Gordon Welch. Violences, William Dalton, Ralph Stevens, Double bass, Charles Robinson. Flute, Clare Poland.

Ashland and Burlington High Schools Will Clash in Debate Tonight
ASHLAND IS THE FAVORITE
Preparations Have Been Made For a Large Attendance to Hear This Timely Discussion.
The first big event of the high school invasion of the University will take place in the chapel in Fraser hall this evening, when the championship of the Kansas high school debating league will be determined. burlington and Ashland high schools urnish the contesting teams.
The question for debate is a local issue—whether or not the proposed amendment to the Kansas constitution permitting women to vote should be adopted at the forthcoming election. Burlington supports the affirmative of the question, Ashland the *negative*.
The first considerable number of high school rooters to reach Lawrence will be the supporters of the Burlington team, who left Burlington on a special train at 1 o'clock this afternoon and were scheduled to reach Lawrence at 4 o'clock.
If Ashland can repeat its performance of last year and carry off the championship the silver loving cup will be the permanent possession of the school.
The Ashland team, owing to their distance from Lawrence, will not have a large crowd of supporters, but what they lack in vocal support, they expect to more than make up in prestige and real skill in debating. Ashland has had an enviable record with the two years. In that time students from nearby have taken part in eight debates and they have a list of eight victories to their credit. All the decisions were unanimous except one.
Prof. R. R. Price, the originator of the debating league, today sent letters to the members of the Universit faculty asking that the faculty attend, and that the debate be announced in classes in order that a large attendance of the student body may be assured.
The debate will begin at 8:15 and is free to the public.

"Hunt up your rubbers and overshorses!" chuckled Mr. Baro Meter this morning as he saw a representative of the Daily Kansan passing. "Unsettled for tomorrow."

FRIDAY MAY 3, 1912.
POLITICS ARE MORIBUND
Politics at the University may not be dead, but they are sleeping a profound sleep. Whether it is the sleep of the just or not, is a matter of personal opinion. The fact remains that Old General Apathy is taking a college course in politics, and is pulling "ones" right and left.
One week till election. Only a scant half hozen petitions in circulation, for the student council. For the editor and manager of the Jayhawker there was only one candidate, presumably for both positions, and a movement set forth to postpone the election until next year, when more interest will be manifested was successful.
But what is the matter with the "interest?" When the students of the University presumably creatures of reason and foresight, take no interest in politics, it may well be taken as an intimation that the students do not regard politics as a proper sphere for their activities?
It is true that in the past few years the word politics has come to have a disagreeable connotation. And so, perhaps the students do not desire to have a voice in their government. Government is a tiresome occupation anyway. Besides, student government offers no rewards to its workers. Therefore why not let the positions of members of student council, manager and editor of the Annual and class officers be put wholly on the scholarship basis. For instance, the presidency would go to the best student, and so on, down the line. Thus the grades in the registrars office could be made to perform the task of electing officers that the students seem to find so much difficulty in performing.
Or let the choice be made from the members of the class by lot. Anything that will lift the work of selecting its official servants from the shoulders of this time and duty oppressed student body.
"It is a yell, a slogan or a gag?" asks the Kansas City Star of the "Hyperbolic paraboloid" rallying cry of the engineers. It depends on circumstances. When heard from a distance, the mystic words are likely to impress themselves upon the listener as being a yell. When the listener mingles with the engineers who are putting forth the vocal efforts and understands how they feel about it, the words will seem to compose a slogan. And when a law student tries to shape his vocal cords around "hyper——" and the rest of it, the thing is likely to turn out to be a gag.
THE BOYS FROM DOWN HOME The eyes of every high school student will be turned on the University of Kansas next Saturday. Track athletics, the most popular high school sport, will be celebrated in a carnival that may be compared to the Olympic games of Classic Greek.
And it is not only athletics that will be the order of things. Many of the boys will have visited a great university for the first time in their lives, and obtained their first glimpse
of higher education and its attendant blessings. ,
Their impressions will be all important. Do you remember the first thing that introduced you to a college life? Is the recollection pleasant or otherwise? What would you like it to have been that it was not? Ask yourself these questions, and then turn out next Saturday to make the boys from "down home" or any of the boys with no University men from the home town, feel at home on Mt. Oread.
A Harvard student of the insurgent name of Roosevelt declares, following the lead of "Stover at Yale," that the thing that ails the universities of the country is plain ignorance, which he says is something abysmal. That some stand-pat student will now rush to the defense of ignorance may be too much to expect, although Samuel McCord Crothers once wrote an essay or "The Honorable Points of Ignorance." Dr. Crothers, however, said in that essay that although he was much taken with his subject, he would not to the lengths pursue by some followers of fads and recommend that it be taught in the public schools.
THE STUDENTS LOAN FUND
As a departure from the custom followed in previous years, the 1911 senior class at the University of Wisconsin has decided on a loan fund as a memorial and the fund of the class will be turned over to the faculty committee to help students who are in need of financial assistance.
This plan, coming into use at Wisconsin for the first time, was followed by senior classes at the University of Kansas several years ago, when the proceeds from the senior class play in the spring were given to the students' loan fund.
Although the faculty committee is charge of this loan fund has not received applications from students in the University who need assistance in order to complete the last semester and obtain degrees—probably through ignorance of the existence of such a fund—an addition to the Students' Loan Fund would be one way in which the seniors could help the University and their fellow students.
The prospect of trouble in Mexico which will necessitate the sending of American troops to that country furnishes food for speculation among University students who are members of the National Guard. Americans as a race do not love trouble for troubles' sake, and few, if any, student soldiers would turn their faces southward imbued with the idea that the whole thing was just a big lark. Forced marches on short rations and no water are entertaining and enjoyable, when experienced at second hard in the depths of a comfortable arm chair. At closer range they have their annoying features and are never to be recommended even as a substitute for final examinations.

"It's a gift," he said sympathetically, "that I am afraid, my boy, nobody can't learn you."
"Can I come in," said a voice from outside, and Mr. Gallop peeped around the open door.

THE NOSE FOR NEWS
"You-er—like the name?" Mr. Opp asked, his new office-boy, Nick Fenton.
"The Opp Eagle?" said Nick. "Bully!"
Such unqualified approval went to Mr. Appr's head, and he rashly broke through the dignity that should hedge about an editor.
He opened the drawer and took out some loosely written paper, though he knew each paragraph by heart. Squaring himself in his revolving-chair, and clearing his throat, he began to read impressively:
"The great bird of American Liberty has soared and flown over the country and lighted at last in your midst. 'The Opp Eagle' appears for the first time today. It is no money scheme in which we are indulging; we aim first and foremost to fulfil a much needed want in the community. 'The Opp Eagle' will tell the people what you want to know better and at less expense than any other method. It will aim at bringing the priceless gems of knowledge within reach of everybody. 'The Opp Eagle' will, moreover, stand for temperance and reform. We will hurl grape and cannister into the camps of the saloonetics until they fee the wrath to come. Will also publish a particular statement of all social entertainments, including weddings, parties, church socials, and funerals. In conclusion, we may say that it encourages opportunity to thank in collective manner heenfor the welcome you have ordained 'The Opp Eagle.'"
"Gee! I wish I could write like that!" said Nick. "I can do the printing all right, and bustle around you." And I know how to put on the trimmings."
Mr. Opp came to a close and waited for applause; nor was he disappointed.

"Well, we want you for the leader of our band," said Mr. Gallop. "We are going to have blue uniforms and regular concert ups on Main street."
WILLIAM ADLINGTON.
Nick Fenton began searching for a pencil.
"You know," went on Mr. Gallop, rapidly, "the last show boat that was here had a callope, and there's another one coming next week. All I have to do is to listen to a tune twice, then I can play it. Miss Guin-never Gusty is going up to Coreyville next week, and she says she'll get us some new pieces. She's going to select a plush self-rocker for the congregation to give the new preacher. They're keeping it awful secret, but I heard 'em mention it over the telephone. The preacher's baby has been mighty sick, and so has his mother, up at the Ridge; but he's got well again. Well, I must go along now. Ain't it warm??
Before Mr. Opp had ceased showing Mr. Gallop out, his attention was arrested by the strange conduct of his staff. That indefatigable youth was writing furiously on the new wall-paper, covering the clean brown surface with large, scrawling characters.
Mr. Opp's indignation was checked at its source by the radiant face which Nick turned upon him.
"I've got another column!" he cried; "list here;
"‘A new and handsome Show Boat will tie up at the Cove the early part of next week. A fine calliope will be on board.'
“Miss Guinevere Gusty will visit friends in Coreyville soon.”

"The infant baby of the new preacher has been sick, but is better some.' "Jimmy Fallows came near getting an undertaking job at the Ridgge last week, but the lady got well.' "And that isn't all," he continued excitedly; "I'm going out now to get all the particulars about that band, and we'll have a long story about it."
FRIENDS.
As the work of the year at the University draws to a close it is a good plan for each to make a mental invoice of the results of his time spent in acquisition. If in his invoice one finds that he has added no friends to his list he has failed to acquire one thing worth while. Failure to get friends of the right sort is failure of the worst kind.
Passing acquaintances whose names one happens to know are not his friends. A friend does not tell one's shortcomings to others; friends talk plainly to each other for their mutual help. However, only few people can be wholly frank with each other and this is why one can have but n limited number of friends.
Friends through their mutual sympathy and helpfulness are complements of each other. They are to each other what they seem to be and each knows the other for what he is worth. For this reason much of the success of life is the result of help from friends.
No one can be happy without stauchen friends and no one can ever hope to get very far on the road to success without their aid and encouragement. In all your acquisitions do not fail to acquire friends. —University Missouri.

"You never can tell what your thoughts will do.
For thoughts are things, and their airy wings.
Are swifer than carrier doves
They follow the law of the universe,—
Each thing must create its kind;
And they speed o'er the track to bring
And they speed over the track to bring you back
Whatever went out from your mind"

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
AGAIN THEY VISIT IN FOREIGN FIELDS
Jayhawkers Leave Tomorrov to Mix With College of Emporia Nine
CAN THEY REPEAT THE DOSET
Dope Points That Sherwin's Men Wi Have to Hustle to Take a Second Victory
Coach Sherwin and his nine stanch henchmen will leave tomorrow morning for Emporia where they will take on nine rounds with the Presbyterian aggregation quartered there. The game will probably be much closer than the one played against the College of Emporia. The score then counted up at the end of the fray 8 to 0 in favor of the Jay-hawkers.
The doppers in the College town are figuring hard and have handed out the story that if Kansas wants to come off again victorious they will have to go some. When the teams met on McCook, the Emporia nine were handicapped by the fact that their team had been changed in its line-up the day before and their crack tisser, Norris, was home with the small poox. Owing to the change in the players, the Presbyterians did not put up the team work that they had marked up for themselves the former part of the season and fell into the balls of the invincible Walker.
But Norris is going to play tomorrow and so are Schabinger and Willis and the other regular players in their regular places, and it looks as if some credit will have to be given to the rumors inferring that the Jayhawker has had his heart come near repeating the decision of last time.
The Kansas spirit and optomism still remains, however, and despite the bear stories, Sherwin's men are going to Emporia with the confidence of winning. The line-up of the team will probably be the same as it has been throughout the season with the exception of Wilson playing first and Hicks in left. Walker is in first-class condition and some fancy tossing is expected of him tomorrow. Binkleman is fielding nearly perfect and the remainder of the team are playing tip-top ball.
The nine will leave for Emporia tomorrow morning and return either Saturday night or Sunday morning. The batteries for the College will probably be Norris and Aitkin and for Kansas, Walker and Ogden.

ALPHATAUS TAKE GAME
Slipped Out of Ninth Inning by 4 to 3 Score; Errors Plentiful
In one of the closest games yet layed in the inter-fraternity series
the alpha Taus yesterday barely pulled out of the ninth inning with the big end of a 4 to 3 score against the Phi Delts.
The bleacher representatives were few but enthusiastic and after the first inning when the Alpha Tau ran in three of their runs, the pulling for each nine was pretty even. The Phi Deltis were the bulls eye for the error shooters, managing to be hit by the fatal archman eight different times. The Alpha Taus were more consistent in their playing and only pulled down four during the game.
Stotts, the south-paw of the frat league, was pitching good and managed to shut out eight of the members on the opposing nine. He even up with Porter, for the Phil Deltas, in allowing seven hits in the nine acco- Porter did not have the support of the players, and though he pitched good ball, especially at the last, he could not play the game against nine men.
The game was a thoroughly amateur one and showed the results of the lack of practice the teams get. There are some good players in the fraternity league, but the teams are negligent about practicing and therefore cannot expect to play consistently when it comes to a game. The team playing at the playing of the Phil Delta yesterday and was responsible for a great many of the "bone-heads" that were pulled off.
The score:  R. H. E.
Phi Delts. . . . 000 002 001 - 3 7 8
Alpha Tau. . . 300 010 00* - 4 7 4
Batteries: Phi Delts; Porter and

G. U. DEBATERS UPHOLD THE HOUSE OF LORDS
Judges Give Decision to Men Talking Against Abolition—Would Insure Solidarity.
That the House of Lords should be retained as one house in the English parliament was definitely settled in the debate on that question at the regular meeting of the K. U. Debating Society last night.
The winning team, composed of Bert Steeper, Claude Conkey, and Walter Griffin, urged that the House of Lords should be retained in order to insure constancy and solidarity in the British government, and that the House of Lords holds a peculiar position because of the fact that England has no written constitution as we have. Avery Olyney, Walter Staton and Emmett Bennett talked in favor of abolition.

The match will not be a regular challenge match, but will consist of a friendly tournament between ten picked members of both clubs. The game will consist of the regular eighteen hole course and will be for one round.

Potter Lake Will Officially Be Open to University "Ducks" Next Week
Potter Lake will be officially opened up for the benefit of the students next week and swimming will be allowed from 3:30 till 6 o'clock every afternoon. Since the first of the year different appeals have been made to the authorities to fill up the pond and allow the children to swim, chance to get in a few outdoor practices before the end of school, but no action has previously been taken.
Since the incident last year, when an engineering student was drowned, the ban has been put on the lake as a swimming hole, and the man have had to content themselves with the indoor pool. Dr. Naismith announced yesterday that the water warmed up, a representative said, and force would be on deck and all who wished could take the dip every afternoon.
However all swimming outside of the above appointed hours will be strictly prohibited, and it is rumored that men going in after dark will be liable to arrest. The diving tower will probably be strengthened and a raft will be kept on the water continuity ropes necessary for the students to don their swimsuits in the gymnasium, as no bath house at the lake will be provided.
The girls will for the time be excluded from the use of the lake though they may get a chance at it before the end of school.

RICH MAN IS ATTENDNG CORNELL'S FARMING SCHOOL
Pittsburg.—James I. Buchan, President of the Pittsburg Trust Company payer of the Pittsburg Board of Public Education and prominently identified with local business enterprises, is to be a farmer. He has entered into an agreement with the school of Farming and is one of the most diligent pupils there, his teachers say.
To acquire knowledge of how to run a farm Buchanan goes to Ithaca every week and remains there for three days, attending classes and lectures. He is treated exactly like his classmates, most of whom are young enlistees. His instructors do not hesitate to rebude him whenever he blunders.
Not long ago Buchanan was unavoidably detained when he should have gone home.
accounty detained here when he should have been on his way to school. Result, he missed one of the lectures. Next day he was called up and asked to explain why he had played hookey. The truant claiming a pressing business engagement. That excuse was rejected as insufficient. Then he modestly admitted that he had to speak before the Chamber of Commerce.

JUDGES SAY WOMEN
SHOULD NOT VOTE
Ashland Wins High Schoo Debate by Unanimous Decision-Arguments Good
By a unanimous decision, the judges in the final debate of the Kansas debating league last night gave the winning place to the Ashland team which supported the negative of the Woman's Suffrage question.
According to the rules of the league, the silver loving cup offered by the University now becomes the permanent possession of the Ashland high school, as they have won three consecutive championships. A banner, also offered by the University, becomes the property of the Ashland speakers.
Two girls and one boy, Alberta Stephenson, Verna Miller, and Marcellus Stockton of Burlington supported the affirmative of the proposition that women in Kansas should be allowed to vote, and although the judges decided unanimously for the negative, everyone in the hall admired the affirmative argument and were convinced that they, too, had presented an excellent case. Daisy Taylor, Roy Cassity, and Francis Osborne, of Ashland were on the winning team.
VOTING A RIGHT OR WRONG PRIVILEGE?
Alberta Stevenson, who opened the affirmative argument, after telling something of the history of the question, stated that men had assumed the powers of government and had established an autocracy which has usurped its power and which was taxing the women of the country without giving them representation in that government. She argued that the ballot is the only sufficient protection for any class and maintained that the conservative home element in politics would be a power for good.
The first negative speaker, Daisy Taylor, stated the position of their side, that suffrage is not an inherent right, but a duty or privilege given by the state and that expediency is the only question to be decided when the Kansas amendment is being considered. She stated that democracy and representation gives a voice in government and represents the vote and hold of the women now exercise a big power without the ballot. The point that women with the ballot would be a privileged class, one with a vote but without the other duties of men toward the state, was given by this contestant.

NO ADEQUATE REPRESENTATION Verna Miller continued the Burlington position by showing that the ballot is used successfully when the privilege is given to women, that

Luck.
After Ward had gone down in the tenth, shortstop to pitcher, Deichman playing in Wilson's field singled, and Buzick who was gardening in right was there with the three-bagger that was needed to win the game. But the scoring did not stop there. Norris who had to this time pitched a great game for the College made a grand ascension. A bad error by him allowed Buzick to score. Binkleman who had been resting on the bench now was called on for a pinch hit and responded nobly. Another error by the pitcher brought him around from second.
Emporia in the first opened the scoring when Walker, some pitcher, fumbled a hot grounder and allowed a runner to roost on first. He stole and came in on a hit. The other College scores were earned by hits.
The Kansas scores in the fifth came as the result of a mixture of errors and hits.

HOW K. U. STUDENTS MAKE $225 A YEAP
Many Avenues of Employ ment Open—Y. M. C. A.
Helps Freshmen
After a man has been in the University a short time, he has no difficulty in getting work. For the benefit of those who are just beginning, their University life, the Y. M. C. A. employment bureau has been organized. The bureau finds work for many men during the year and often had difficulty in securing enough workers to supply the demand.
The average cost to a student in the University of Kansas for one academic year should be less than $250. A student should be able to live comfortable month and this would count up to $225 for the nine months of class work.
Many students are making their own way entirely and even have a respectable bank account at the end of the year.
All kinds of work are open to the in-
dustrial man. There are lawns to be en-
prepared in shape, snow must be shovelled
'n winter, furnace fires must be made.
or in the restaurants, they deliver papers, solicit and deliver laundry, do pantatorium work for their fellow students, clerk in the hotels. Besides all these positions, there are a number of good paying situations in the University as an taking care of laboratory apparatus, or working in the different libraries.
The summer vacation is often spent in canvassing for books, magazines, and aluminum ware. Several students have earned more than enough to pay their way through a year of school by a single summer's work.
Students clerk in Lawrence stores, hey wait tables at the boarding clubs.

SOPH HOP BETTER THAN FORMER PROMS
Informality Plesaeed Every body Last Night—Farce and Music Good
When the University Council took action some time ago and issued an edict that never again should there be be a Sophomore Prom—with accent on the Prom—they did something that will go a long ways toward making the annual sophomore party one of the most delightful events of the year.
Last night the first annual Soph-more Hop was given in Robinson Gymnasium and the decided informality of the occasion as contrasted with the formality that it always incident to a Prom, brought joy to the hearts of the five hundred people who trumped up the "hill" on a warm summer evening to witness the force and to dance.
"A College Mixup" was the farce offering by the sopheromones and it was by far the most clever little skirt that has been presented to a University audience for some time. The Sowers twins were the authors of the book of the play and they succeeded in injecting their wit and humor into the situations were well planned. The faerce was a mistaken identity affair in which the audience itself for the most part was fooled as to which one of the Sowers twins was on the stage.
Arvid Frank wrote four songs for the play and the lyrics were written by Earl Moore. "Isn't He a Hand-some Man?" was a tuneful song in which Lucele Smith and Harvey Phillips did some clever acting. Harvey Heller off some black face stuff that was not at all tiresome.
The farce was under the direction of Clarence Sowers and the musical numbers were conducted by Aridv Frank and Earl Moore. The programs for the farce were furnished by the Merchants' Association.
After the farce, the audience ad journed to the main floor of the gym for dancing. The grand marche was led by Ralph Yoeman, president of the class, and Amarynthia Smith. Programs were given out by Adine Hall and Charles Strickland and Lucile Smith and Arthur Perry. Refreshments in the music quartette tables. Music in in the dining room was furnished through the courtesy of "Swede" Wilson and Eurene Thomas.
Kenneth Lythe, and Wendall Lyman of Topeka, are spending the week-end at the Phi Delt house.
Arvid Frank was the manager of the Hop.
Hall's orchestra of Topeka furnished the music for the twenty dances which were finished at the stroke of midnight, were closing by the University Council.
JAYHAWKERS 63
CORNHUSKERS 42
Hamilton's Athletes Won Easily From the Men of Stiehm
THE DOPE WAS BADLY UPSET
Marks Set in The Field Events Were Poor—Best Time Made in Half Mile
In the earlier events of the meet the score was close but as the end drew near Kansas slowly forged ahead and the meet was won before the broad jump or the relay had been decided.
By scoring 63% points while the Cornhusker athletes were collecting 42% Coach Hamilton's track team rmped home with the victory in the dual meet held on McCook field yesterday afternoon.
None of the performances were brilliant, but the track events were run off in good time considering the high wind. The weight events were won at distances that would be poor if made by high school students. McGowan set the best pace of the meet when he took the half mile in 2:04 1-5. The time made by Murray in the two mile was also good for that distance.
Dope was badly upset in a number of events.
The hundred yard dash, though placed on the doubtful list had been
KANSAS
CAPTAIN FRENCH
generally, conceded to Nebraska;
May, the cornbasket star having a record of 9-4-5 in that event. Here came the first upset, as Kansas carried away two places in 10-2-5.
PARRERSON SPINRED TOO SOON
PARKERSON SPRINED TOO SOON
The mile run went to Anderson of
Nebraska but Patterson took an
easy second, and might have placed
in first had he saved his sprint a little
longer.
Hazen won the high hurdles and Russell of Nebraska finished second. He was disqualified, however, for knocking down too many hurdles and no points were awarded for second place.
In the 440 dope again suffered. Kansas figured on one place but Black and Smith were unable to keep the fast pace they set early in the race and the Nebraska men won easily.
The 220 dash went to Davis of Kansas, with Christmas second in 231-5.
HAZEN SLOWED DOWN AND LOST The saddest event of the meet, from the Kansas standpoint, was the low hurdles. Hazen, having a comfortable lead, decided that he had better save himself a little for the high jump. He slowed down on the last two hurdles and couldn't speed
up enough to get into the race again.

A MORE BEAUTIFUL CAMPUS
All the giant elm trees in the quadangle at Harvard are to be cut down this summer and red oaks planted in their places. The elms, which have stood for many years, have sheltered the commencement exercises of that school since they were large enough. They are now considered worthless by experts who say they are dying, and only a few of them have shown signs of life this spring.
There are several apparently dead trees on the eastern part of the campus here that have failed to respond to Spring's call. It would take little time and no expense to have them examined by an expert to determine whether they are dead or dying and past the reviving point. Neither are they surrounded by any traditions that should delay their execution until after commencement, when the campus will be covered with visitors who cannot help noticing blemishes on its beauty.
Give them the axe now!
A REVIVAL OF INTEREST
The debaters from Ashland were a little better than their opponents from Burlington last night and were awarded the decision and the trophy of silver.
And it is safe to say that never be fore in the history of high school debating in Kansas has there been such interest shown on debating as when the two hundred rooters came up from Burlington yesterday in a special训. Of course it is not the rooting that wins debates, but it is a fine thing for a school that so many of its supporters and students will take a sixty mile trip over branch roads in order to listen to their debaters.
It marks a new epoch in high school debating, and the Universit is glad to have been the stage for the outbreak of this new manifestatio of interest.
TROPHY ROOM OPEN FOR VISIT
ING ATHLETES
On the day of the ninth annual in terscholastic track and field meet, the men who came to the University for the first time, were treated to an inspection of the trophy room, an inspection none of the athletes in former years were allowed to make, because the trophy room heretofore has always been locked and the best that any of the curious could do, was push their noses against the glass windows and look in from the out side.
The glory of the University athletes was shown there by medals, loving cups, championship banners, baseballs, footballs, and even the football shoes of the wonderful Forter who won the Missouri game at St. Joe in 1907. The future athletes of the University went there to see what their predecessors have done
The history of athletics at the University is told by those trophies back as far as 1873, the year when the first baseball championship was won by a Kansas nine. And the ancient baseball for that year is in the case in the front of the room.
SIXTY MILES TO A DEBATE
Nearly two hundred high school students traveled the sixty miles from Burlington in the south yesterday afternoon to hear their debating team argue for the championship of the state on the rostrum. Their ride over a branch line of the railway reminds the historian of the interest that was taken in the Lincoln-Douglas debates back in the "nffies" when men and women traveled hundreds of miles by means of the primitive railways of the western states, steam boats, and horse back, all to hear the little wizard of the Senate and the tall, amiable, good natured Illinois lawyer talk.

SCARLET HEADLINES
By Willard A. Wattles
E XTRA! Extra"—the newsboy's cry
Shrills through the thoroughfare
And a hundred eager, clutching hands
Screen for his grissey ware.
The headlines drip with a gory hue.
Where the ink from the press is warm.
And the canyon walls of the crowded street
Re-echo the red alarm.
'Extra! Extra!'!"—the strenuous cry
A hundred throats reopen.
And a hundred hundred eager hands
Clutch at the crimson sheet:
While a hundred hundred human heads
O'er the flaming letters that tell th world
With nostrils aquiver like wolves who sense
How the murderer must die.
They cling to the straps of the trol ley-car
And many who read would blacken him
pupil, Sniffing the blood of the death-doomed one
A hot and blood-sick smell,
Calm-eyed matron, or ragged tramp
And fathers who have feared for
Heedless of clanging bell
A nameless Thing in a pad-locked cell
Sharp death at the Magdalene,— When the wretched Burden limply sags
A pear-cased Nazarene With his sword lowered each hand that aimed
Then I seem to dream of the days gone by
And many who gloat over his tale of shame
What snarling fangs they bare!
In thought are as foul as he.—
Can that be why they sniff his death
So strange and wolfish?
Who can no blacker be,
They sure must be most upright men women
Who help to put it there!
In the clasp of the fiery chair,
HISTORY OF THE HIGH SCHOOL MEET
Wonderful Growth of the Interscholastic in the Past Fight Years
Eight Years
FIVE SCHOOLS ENTERED IN 1904
Since Then The Meet Has Grown
to an Event With 200 Entries
Nine years ago the interscholastic meet was instituted. At that time there were five schools entered and the meet was in the nature of an invitation event. Only the larger schools in the near vicinity were represented.
Representing 32 Teams.
This, the third interscholastic meet,
may be taken as a fair example of the
school approach.
In this meet one record was made that the University Athletic authorities thought worthy of preservation. This meeting was also held dard vash by Commons of Lawrence
It would be of interest to trace it through its early history but the slight importance of the meet in the early times resulted in a lax system and it was not until 1905 that there was any systematic attempt on the part of the University authorities to preserve an accurate record of the events.
Sutton and Meyer both of Garnett made new records in the shot and hammer respectively setting the records at 42.7 and 141.
Of the hundred men entered Babb of Lawrence won the point trophy by scoring 10 points. No records were broken.
The following year there were thirteen high schools represented in the meet. After the meet had been run the University authorities decided that it was unfair to allow the Kansas City and St. Joseph schools to compete on an equal footing with the Kansas high schools that lacked the benefits of coaching and training enjoyed by the city teams. They therefore made the larger schools a separate class. When this was done the trophy awarded to the winner of the meet went to the Lawrence, with a score of 41 points.
KANSAS CITY SCHOOL DROFS OUT
In 1907 fifteen schools were entered and 120 men started in the meet. The Kansas City Schools were not represented as arrangements had been made for a special meet in which Central, Manual, Westport, and others of that class were to compete with the University Freshmen.
The meet was from an athletic stand point the most successful held up to that time. Seven records were broken. Stahl of Lawrence set a new mark in the 220 dash and in the quarter mile. The time for the first of these was 23.3 and for the second 54.2. Jim Smith of Anthony lowered the 220 hurdle record to 28.1 and raised the broad jump mark to 20 feet 9 inches.
The meet in 1910 was marred by rain but in spite of that 153 men
Bill French now captain of the University track team pushed the high jump record to up 5 feet 8 inches.
Lawrence again won the meet scoring 37 points. Jim Smith won the point trophy.
There were 29 schools represented in the meet held May 2, 1908. Over 150 men were entered. This meet was another record breaker. French raised his own mark in the high jump to 5 feet 9 inches; Martin of Lawrence lowered the low hurdle to 6 feet 7 inches. Geoffrey brought the quarter mile record 54 flat and Sterling of Dickinson threw the discus 99 feet 2 inches.
NEW CLASSIFICATION IN 1908
In 1009 the meet was smaller but the class was better than before. Lanyon of Pittsburgh won the 100 in 10-2. McMillan of Arkansas City took the half in 2.14, Bryson of Overbrook won the hammer throw with a cast of 148.11 and Lambeth of Allen county threw the discs 101 ft. 2 in. All these marks were new records. Lawrence, Allen county, Dickinson County, and Southern Kansas Academy were the cup winners.
The point trophies wilt to Martin in class A; Leach of Jefferson in AA; Brackenker of Burlingame in C; and Chavez of Davis in Davis, Davis, and Sterling won in class B.
In this meet the high schools were classified for the first time. County highs were put in a class labelled AA, city schools of over 250 were called C, between 757 and 150 were placed in B, and others were put in class C. This was done to give the smaller schools a chance to carry home cups.
MANY NEW RECORDS IN 1909
from 22 schools took part. The only record broken was the disc. Lambeth of Allen county beating his own mark a foot.
Wauaiseon county won the AA cup, Lawrence the A, Dickinson the B, and Southern Kansas Academy won the most points in the C class. Lambeth of Allen, Hazen of Lawrence, Howard of Dickinson and Stark of Perry were the point winners.
The meet last year was larger in attendance than any previous one. New records were set in the half the broad jump and the pole vault. The first of these went to Root of Oak in 2008, the second to Randells of Anthony at 21 feet 2 in., and the last to Mull of Omaha at 14 feet 6 inches.

Editor's Note—Baseball fans will remember the old poem relating the story of how Casey got up to bat when he had the opportunity to win the game and how he fanned out. This is his explanation of how it happened.
From Casey's lips I had the tale Before he passed away,
Which tells the story of his fate That song-famed dav.
" "Twas not for me to beep," said he,
"Because they called me out.
I've never said a word before— 'Tis not my way to spout.
"Because they called me out.
But here's the truth for once, old pal:
The first one that he threw
Was half a foot above my head;
But half a foot above you.
So, 'what's the use to kick?' thought I.
'The next one I'll hit a mile; And feelin' kind of confident, I couldn't help but smile.
Now, on the dead, the ump was rank.
As bad as he could be.
That second one was 'way outside And down below my knee
And when the umpire said 'strike two',
I thought it was a kid.
asked him if he meant it.
I asked him if he
And he said, 'Sure Mike, I did.'
The gang was next; you heard 'em cry
And then that third one, say, old pal,
That third one was a heart.
But I just smiled because I thought,
"He won't do that again."
But my, oh my, there surely was
A hoodo working there.
You may think that 'I'm stringin' you
but this is on the square,
The minute I sees it start,
I says, 'Here's on the snoot.'
Just as I started to make the swing
A bug flew in my eye!
I misses that there ball a foot And, on the dead, here's whv.
But the umpire, he was rotten, yes,
But here's the truth, that's all.
"Swimming Holes."
If that there bug had stayed away,
I'd surely have lost that ball."

Raceley, the Cornhusker star, was badly injured in the 220 dash. In making the turn he tore loose a ligament in his leg and will be out of track athletes for the rest of the year.
Murray showed his nerve when he passed the Nebraska man, Bates, in the last lap of the two mile. The Kansas runner made one sprint which the Cornhusker smothered but Murray came right back. The fight went out and the Cornhusker passed him and Patterson had no trouble in beating him out of second.
Cramer had the only real luck of the Kansas squad when the landed squarely on the bar on his third trial at 11.3. The bar wavered a minute and then stuck. Hamilton, French, et. al., smiled.
There were only 106 points scored in the meet because of the disqualifications in the high hurdles. Only three men were entered, and both Russell and Perry were disqualified.
Wilson beat "Buzz" Woodbury out of a K in the broad jump. Buzz was in the lead till the last jump when Wilson beat him by six inches.

JUDGES SAY WOMEN SHOULD NOT VOTE
(Continued from page 1)
they demand suffrage, that they are not now given adequate representation in indirect ways, and that woman is the equal of man intellectually and legally and should therefore be given the same rights which men enjoy.
Francis Osborne opposed the preceding speakers argument directly by arguing that woman's suffrage is not a success in the states when tried. He pointed out the poor laws and impure politics in these states and asked that laws Kansas does not support. Kansas extended the voting privilege. He maintained that voting would be a useless burden with no good results.

WOULD NOT INJURE HOME LIFE
The closing Burlington speaker was Marcellus Stockton. His argument was along the line that women would not be taken out of the home by being allowed to vote but that new fields of endearment would be opened to them. He showed by statistics that the proportion of educated people with the voting privilege would be increased and the proportion of foreigners and criminals having the privilege would be decreased if women were given the right of voting. In closing he again brought out the argument that the wrongs of women could only be remedied by the ballot.

preparation and was a fine argument to show that high school students are fully capable to get to the bottom of a live question of the day. The teacher sees fully as an effective as the boys in their presentation of the arguments.
Chancellor Strong presided at the contest. The judges were Dean F. O. Marvin, Prof. Carl Becker and Prof. W. W. Davis.
The last debater on the main speeches was Roy Cassity of Ashland. He cited the good laws which Kansas already has, and maintained that no additional statutes could be obtained by the women which were not already on the law books or were not possible under the present system. In support of this contention, he argued that of Kansers with those of states which have given women the voting privilege. He reiterated the argument that expediency is the main question for discussion and claimed that the negative had shown that the matter was not expedient in Kansas.
TWO MINUTES WITH CAMPUS CELEBRITIES
"I was a great favorite with the girls when I was young," remarked William Hamilton Johnson, the High School visitor. "I try to shave every tooth and I can teach School as often as I can. I want the Popular Magazine and the Arrowy."
"Two men owe me money, and I wish they would come across. I am fifty years old. I never saw a bullfight, but I mean to see one some day. I have been with the University nine years.
REBUTTAL SPEECHES WERE STRONG
The rebuttal speeches of five minutes for each debater were good and several speakers clashed with their opponents in a manner which was a surprise to many in the audience.
The entire debate showed exhaustive
"I can quote Scripture at almost any occasion. I am a very aggressive man, and always say what I think. I never make mistakes; it doesn't take much to me make mad."
"I like to walk out into the country sometimes, where the horses and the cows are. No man likes to talk and lecture better than I do.
"I had my last fist fight in 1879. I love to read about Abraham, Moses, and other great men. I am a great man to fish. I wear glasses because they help my eyes. I never understood how Job could be so patient.
"The report that I am a relative of Jack is absolutely false."

CINDERS
Burlington High School had the largest number of contestants*of any class C school.
Chancellor Strong and Frank Jr. attended the meet. Young Frank will doubtless make a long distance runner
The University of Kansas band played several numbers which were much appreciated by the high school visitors.
The mile runners in Class C started out as if they were going to run the fifty yard dash. They finished considerably slower.
The cameras were so thick that several of them got their focuses crossed.
Brown and Bell made it almost a dead heat in Class C high hurdle. Both are proteges of Ed. Van der Vries who is teaching at Perry and turning out some good athletes on the side.
Barclay, of Kansas City is becoming a regular feature at the interscholastic meets. He kept up his former record today by taking first in the Class A high hurdles. Barclay always wears a cap when he runs.
Vermilion, of Atchison, led the Clas A milers until the last lap when Palmer and Powell of Lawrence spurted and beat him out. Powell was spiked at the last turn and finished fifth.
Gillis, of Ottawa, and McFall, of Pratt, in the Class B mile speeded it up for the last half lap but the race was so slow that it was almost a walk-away.

"NICK" TELLS HOW HE DID IT
Tiger Hurdler Won in Spite of Numer-
ous and Varied Difficulties.
John P. Nicholson, who won the high hurdle race at the Pennsylvania relay meet last Saturday, returned this morning. "Nick" was asked to talk about his victory over Case, of Illinois.
"After the first hurdle my lane was in water," he said. "Case had the next lane and it was all above water. I hit the second hurdle and knocked it down. I touched the third one and then consequently I took all the others high because if I had hit another I would have been disqualified.
"We took the tenth hurdle about even and then came the race for the tape. I won by about a foot. From a coach's standpoint. Case ran the better race. I took the hurdles too high."
Nicholson was fifth in the running broad jump. He couldn't hit the take off and jumped only 21 feet and $2 \frac{1}{2}$ inches. This event was by Gutterson of Vermont University at 24 feet and 5-8 inches. Every jump made up over 23 feet, although the way she went was too difficult Nicholson didn't compete in the high jump because of the slick field—University Missourian.

Pleased all Those Present.
Asaffiting end to thehigh schoolathletes visit Friday and Saturday as guests of the University, the Men's Student Council gave the visitors a dinner in Robinson gymnasium Saturday night, followed by a short program.
Over three hundred and fifty high school and University men were served at dinner by the Domestic Science department. It was hoped that more University men would be present, but it seems that a large number were not aware of the fact that they could attend.
A. R. MacKinnon, president of the Men's Student Council made the opening speech and urged that all of the high school men present should make it a point to attend the University of Kansas as soon as they graduated from high school. He also announced that as a feature of the evening, all men awarded first place medals should give their high school vell.
The Weather.
Chancellor Frank Strong made the address of welcome in which he brought out the advantages that would be obtained by the men in attending the University of Kansas both in athletics and in intellectual training. He pointed out that Kansas had as manager and coaches in athletics, some of the best men obtainable and that these men stood for clean athletics.
Coach W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, presented the medals and cups to the winning men and schools. Six records were broken, and Coach Hamilton said that they had cleaned out the jewelry stores in order to obtain enough cups for these events. Coach Hamilton also helped Hutchinson were the individual stars in class A, and were presented the most medals and cups.
The high school yells which the men always insisted upon being given added much to the entertainment, and cheer leader Dolde says that he received several good ideas from the high school men.
"I'm tired and lazy today," Thermo said to Baro. Baro was in a very genial mood today and out of sympathy for his lazy twin. He promised us general fair weather tonight and tomorrow with no change in temperature. Thermo was delighted at the prospect of having no climb either up or down.
Following the presentation of medals, the University mandolin club gave several selections and Root's tumblers ended the program with a classy exhibition of that 'art.
Postpone Orchestra Concert.
The concert of the Fine Arts orchestra has been postponed from Wednesday, May 8 to Saturday, May 11, on account of the Pan-Hellenic debate, which takes place that night.

Clyde Maris Hurt Seriously or Being Thrown From Motor Cycle
Clyde Maris, a freshman in the Schoo of Engineering, was severely injured about the head and shoulders when his motorcycle collided with a street car on New Jersey street Saturday evening. A large piece of flesh was scraped from him, which probably will leave a permanent weakness of the muscles there.
Witnesses of the accident carried the injured boy to the home of Dr. John C. Rudolph, where he is at present. Dr. Rudolph said this morning that Maris's injuries were serious, but that he was resting more easily today.
The accident was caused by the skidding of the motorcycle while Maria was passing the car. He was knocked unconscious.

BOTANIST TELLS HOW TO KILL DANDELIONS
Professor Stevens Says They Must Be Dug up and Burned
"A great many people do not realize that the dandelion is one of the hardiest plants known," said Prof. W. C. Stevens professor of botany, this morning. "Unless particular pains are taken to rout the disease, it will be long before it will take our lawns."
"The only way to get rid of the plant is to dig it out by the roots and burn it. Care must be taken to dig deep, for if any of the stem is left the plant will sprout again. I have noticed so many people simply dig the dandelions out of the ground and leave them scattered on the lawn. This is just as bad as if you had a garden in your yard and have started to bud they will continue anyway and produce the flower and finally the seed. The only sure way of not permitting them to reproduce is to dig them up and place them in a basket and then take them out and burn them.
"I can not emphasize too strong that unless particular care is taken of plants they plants are bound to produce seed and same as if they were in the ground."
Miss Evelyn Wilson, of Leavenworth, spent Sunday in Lawrence visiting at the Chi Omega house.

SOMETHING ABOUT HULL HOUSE
Hull House, the most famous of
American settlements, stands at the
corner of Polk and Halstead streets,
in the foreign district of Chicago. It
is home to many of the artists and
Ellen Gates Starr, who were in
inspired by the example of Toynbee
Hall, London.
The house chosen by Miss Addams had been the homestead of Charles J. Hull, one of Chicago's pioneer citizens. It was battered but sound, and has been made over into a beautiful building, still retaining the original rooms, with extensive additions such as the oriental rugs, and the walls are hung with paintings by modern artists of Chicago and the East.
NOW HAS MANY BUILDINGS
At Hull House today, there are over fifty resident workers and eighty volunteers. Its buildings now include a coffee house, a theater, a co-operative boarding club for young women, a gymnasium, a boy's club and a men's club, a musical school, a nursery, a dining-room and a mechanical plant.
The Hull House activities extend over almost every field of social settlement work. The workers cooperate with the city, the charity organizations, the state, and even the departments at Washington. Many laws for public education and hygiene, for delinquency and for prosecution, have been brought about by the intelligent agitation of the workers of Hull House, inspired always by the leader and founder, Jane Addams.

SATURDAY'S EXTRA
Saturday evening the students received an extra sporting number of the Daily Kansan covering in complete detail the track and field meet on McCook field, the varsity baseball game with the Emporia Normals Saturday afternoon and several of the more important social functions Friday evening.
This special high school sporting edition was made possible by the work of the sporting editor of the Daily Kansan and his staff of reporters who sacrificed the good time other students were enjoying in entertaining their visitors from home, and wrote stories of what they saw, in order to make the paper of the evening.
Sacrifice often describes the work of the men who heel the news for the paper. Last fall when the best football games of the season were being played on McCook field, two of the Kansan reporters were required to remain at the office in order that the students might read a story of the game that night after returning from the game.
The best track meets are handled in the same way and many of the good speeches in chapel exercises are missed because the reporters are sacrificing some of their time for the good of their paper.
The picture of the baseball team that appeared on page four of Saturday's paper was published by the Daily Kansan through the courtesy of the Kansas City Post.
JOBS
Only twenty-one days remain before the student must plunge into the fateful week of final examinations and quizzes at the close of the year. So much must be done in the next three weeks—enjoy the fine spring weather when there is no great incentive for work anyway—explore the Kaw beyond the first bend north of the landing and serenade industrious "grinds" cooped at their work in their rooms.
For more than three hundred students, this is the fourth time that they have managed to exist through this part of the year at the University. For them another question that but recently has risen to great magnitude in their minds is uppermost now.
"What shall I do after I am graduated?"
They can plainly see approaching from afar the entrance to a long white road that stretches away to "the land knows where." What are they going to do after they have been graduated? So many seniors today have not the slightest idea of what they will make a life work after leaving the halls of higher education.
When they first entered the University, that road was barely discernable—there was plenty of time. They were attending the University—in some way or other the University was doing something for them—injecting into them an intangible essence of ability that would unfailingly make them better men and women when the time came for them to earn their own bread and butter. At the end of the long white road then there was a haze of glory.
Now after nearly four years of the joys, sorrows, cares, worries and enthusiasm of the undergraduate life the senior stops before this final plunge. Of what use after all is the four years of education the senior has acquired, and he is apt to ask himself just how it will gain for him all that it is vauntingly accredited with.
He is at the place where he must make a practical application of his education. He must get a job doing something for himself. Those who have thought about this phase of University life,—have planned their courses—will experience little trouble, but the number of men who are thinking of their work for the first time is woefully large and each one has to get a job too.
A survey of the contests in which the University has taken part in the last few weeks would seem to indicate that this is K. U.'s winning year. Here's hoping the winning streak will last until Missouri has been placed in the "also ran" list, in the meet next Saturday.
As a sort of test for the voter preliminary to the trying times attendant upon the big election next fall, the student voters in the University will be put through a series of local competitions at the polls that in themselves will make things pretty warm around the campus. The Student Council election this spring is very close, and the election of an athletic board following that, will merely keep the students in voting trim for the contest over the new athletic constitution that the Council is framing.
DISSECTING THE HEROES
Why is it that the investigators of history will not permit even the best established heroes of the world to rest in peace? What kind of a passion is it that leads them forever into questions of what cereal Julius Caesar ate for breakfast and what kind of dress Cleopatra wore at afternoon teas?
The only reasonable answer to these questions is furnished by the fact that most human beings are a little jealous. They are not willing that we should have our heroes without any thought of their possible vanities. They insist that all our heroes must have feet of clay.
We should really prefer to think that George Washington told merely the plain, unvarnished truth when he said he cut down the cherry tree. We do not like to think that he was boasting about it. It is also very disappointing to think that we have followed that Napoleon's fat old fellow, more like a poly-Poly Beau Brummel than the hero of many wars.
There is no comfort at all in the news that the account books of Chevalier, who was the tailor of Napoleon I, have just been discovered, giving the "Little Corporals" history from July, 1805, to June, 1809. The first thing that the iconoclasts dig up is that Napoleon was very hard on his clothes. He was growing so fat in one year that all the buttons flew off his coat, and he had to have a new back sewed into his coronation coat. Six pairs of trousers and two jackets had to be enlarged that year. He grew such a large bay-window effect in front that his hunting coats had to be loosened all around.
It also appears that Napoleon was a "tight-wad," as the popular saying goes. His habit of cutting down bills submitted to him was so well known that his tailors always put the bills for repairs pretty high so as to leave plenty of leeway for purposes of compromise.
But after all, these matters do not change history in the slightest degree, and they do not lessen the achievements of Napoleon. It is immatural whether he was fat or lean when he met the late Lord Wellington at Waterloo. It is also unimportant whether he used a straight blade or a safety razor. The tendency to judge heroes by the kind of clothes they wore and by their table manners seems, however, to be invicible as the suffragette movement—Washington Post.

AMERICAN INTEREST IN TRACK IS OF RECENT DATA
Popular In The Armies Of The Civil War. Columbia University Had First College Track Team.
In early Greece records of athletic triumphs were kept on urns and vases; in Rome athletic contests were chronicled in sculpturing on buildings; but there was no record kept in writing of the best athletes. In more modern times athletics have taken a different turn. Changes from time to time in the last century have been made in the events of track contests and in the contests themselves, and little record has been made of them.
"Organized track athletics in the colleges and universities of both England and America is of recent development," according to Mr. Jones, of the University of Missouri who has prepared a thesis on track athletics, "yet its true origin in many of the schools is a perplexing question on account of the fragmentary records kept.
FIRST MEET IN ENGLAND IN 1812 "The first place that track athletics are found in the English schools is at the Royal Military College at
Sandhurst. It is claimed that semi-annual field meets were conducted there as early as 1812 but no records were kept of them until 1840. The famous cricket run was founded in the late 1830s by theletic meet consisted of the steeple chase, sprints, scurry and hurdle races at Eton.
"Dublin University in Ireland was the first school on the island to organize athletics. This was done in 1857, but at earlier dates matches between members of rowing clubs were held.
"Organized track athletics in Scotland were common in the seventeenth century. Not until 1866, however, did the universities take up the sport and organize to promote it. In that year the Edinburgh University Athletic Club was organized. Other universities in Scotland were quick to follow the example.
PHENOMINAL RECORDS
"There are two periods in America that influenced college athletics. The first period was marked by a vague general interest in track athletics and other sports and extended from the early days to about 1860, when it took on a more definite form. The first American athlete of fame was George Seward of New Haven, Conn. Many tales are told of his ability as a runner; some, no doubt, are overdrawn. In 1844 he visited in England, where he competed in various races, making wonderful records and winning all races under the 440-yard run. According to a newspaper of the time, he won the 100-yard dash in 9 seconds; the 120-yard dash in 11% seconds and the 220-yard dash in 19 % seconds.
FIRST OXford MEET
"The track first meet in England was held at Durham University in 1852. The history of intercollegiate athletics between Oxford and Cambridge universities began in 1864. This was ten years before the first intercollegiate meet was held in America. The events in this meet were: 100-day dash, high jump, 440-yard run, 12-year hurdle, mile run, running wide jump, 220-year hurdle and two-mile steeple chase. Cambridge won the meet by taking four firsts events out of the eight.
"The first international meet in the British Isles was held March 26, 1877. It was between England and Ireland and out of twelve events,
FIRST OXFORD-CAMBRIDGE MEET
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
But how can I live without my books? I really seem to myself cripped and only half myself; for if, as the soldier's members, surely books are the limbs of scholars. Corasius says: Of a truth, he who would deprive me of books my friends would take away one or two of them. I will even say all desire of living.
BALTHASAR BONIFACIUS RHODIGINUS.
RAN 11½ MILES AN HOUR
RAN 11% MILES AN HOUR
"The second great athlete of international reputation in this period was Louis Bennett, a Seneca Indian, who was called Deerfoot. He was a distance runner. In 1863 he established five records in England, several of which stand unbroken today.
A London newspaper of the time contains an account of a match there in which the Indian was to run eleven and a half miles in an hour. He won the match and had sixteen seconds to spare.
CIVIL WAR DEVELOPED ATHLETICS "The Civil war played a very important part in the establishment and development of track athletics as well as of all other college athletics. In their leisure time during the war, the soldiers were in the habit of engaging in friendly athletic contests among themselves. At the conclusion of the war, much of these soldiers sentenced as students various colleges and exerted great influence in organizing college athletics.
It was not until the war was well over and all was settled again that modern athletics in the colleges began. Nor was it until in the seventies that widespread interest was aroused.

"The Intercollegiate Athletic Association of America, founded in 1876, was the outgrowth of the Saratoga games which were organized in 1873. They gave the first great stimulus to athletics here. James Gordon Bennett, editor of the New York Herald, was responsible for the Saratoga games. In 1873 he offered a trophy for the winner of a two-mile race at Springfield. The list of events was extended and subsequent meetings were held in 1874 and 1875 in connection with the intercollegiate regatta. In 1873 three colleges competed in the 2-mile event only; in 1874 eight colleges competed in five events; and in 1875 thirteen colleges competed in five events.
"The early history of college athletics in America shows that it has had an irregular development, a sort of wild, free growth. Faculties in many cases failed to wisely direct athletics at their beginning. In some schools the faculty paid little or no attention except in the way of discouragement.
COLUMBIA HAD FIRST COLLEGE TEAM "Columbia University in New York was the first college in America to introduce track athletics. The first meet in Columbia was held in Brooklyn in June, 1869. The second meet was held in the fall of the same year. The events consisted of the following: 150-yard dash; mile walk; 200-yard hurdle race; running long jump; running high jump; standing long jump. In 1871 to add the three-lead race and the steep-leash and from then on the events were increased from time to time. After this date track meets were held annually in the spring and fall. An annual appropriation of $200 was given the short at Columbia.
"The organization of track athletics in American colleges followed fast upon the example set by Columbia University. The dates for some of the more important of the Eastern colleges are: Yale 1872, Pennsylvanian Princeton 1873, Princeton 1874, Harvard 1874, Princeton won the intercollegiate meet of the American colleges."—University Missourian.

Prof. E. M. Hopkins, president of the Kansas Association of English Teachers, is sending out a circular letter to teachers and supervisors of teaching requesting topics and speakers for the fall meeting.
T
The program for the English Round Table of the State Teachers Association provides for two sessions on the opening day of the convention, November 7; for secondary schools in the morning and for elementary schools in the afternoon. This is a decided departure from the practice of previous years, intended to secure, if not a more prompt attendance of teachers at the beginning of the convention, a better opportunity to do business, since there will be no occasion for anybody to hurry away to take a train. Because of increasing interest in elementary school problems, the afternoon meeting is intended to have especial importance, affording elementary teachers full time to arrive, and utilizing what is almost the only opportunity for a general gathering of all the elementary teachers of the state.
A general outline of the proposed program for each session is as follows:
MONNING SESSION; SECONDARY TOPICS Interrelations of schools and subjects; general principles.
Difficulties of high school English teaching; experience meeting. Problems of co-ordination and affiliation.
Criticisms of English teaching of primary schools; causes, aid to be offered by other schools.
General query box. Appointment of committees to report in afternoon.
EVENING SESSION; ELEMENTARY TOPICS
What aid, if any, can other schools give to primary English teachers?
Difficulties in the grade teaching of English; the case for each grade presented separately.
General query box. Business meeting; reports of committees, election of officers, outline of proposed year's work for the Association.
Apart from a possible address by a visiting speaker, it is proposed that all discussion be informal, but that within the limits of the preceding general outline special topics be suggested, with names of teachers and others best qualified to discuss them; and that from these the final program be made up. Among topics already suggested are the following: Untrained English teachers in high schools; lack of time and system in grade teaching; unwillingness for teachers to teach with grade teachers; departmental teaching in the grades; oral training in grades; sentence-making versus composition; mistakes in correlation of subjects; standards in marking themes. In the afternoon it is planned that each grade shall have its own preferred topic presented by its own special representative.

BIRD EXPLORERS GREETED COLUMBUS
The Warbler Family Yearly Migrates Great Distances In Spring and Fall
A great procession is crossing the campus daily. It is made up of such a wonderful company that if it were to pass emmars, with colors flying, once a year down Oread avenue, people from all parts of the world would come to Lawrence to see it. The costumes of the paraders puts the gay apparel of the Kirmess dancers to shame, and the music that each member of the company contributes, makes the memory of the Music Festival pale. This band is spoken of by the University ornithologists as the Minoitididae, while most of the students call it by the delightfully suggestive name of the warblers.
The museum scientists claim that these are the most interesting of all the birds. They are strictly an American bird, consisting of some thirty genera with about two-hundred species that range from Argentina to Labrador and Northern Alaska. As a class they are insectivorous and are therefore migratory.
It is these migrations in the spring and fall that have been food for the dreamer and a lure to the scientist. The farther north the birds nest, the further south they travel to spend their winters. These journeys are usually made in the night, thirty-five miles being the average distance of a night's journey.
But the University authorities on this subject say that some species have been known to travel as much as two hundred miles in a night when nearing their nesting ground, and when crossing the Gulf of Mexico, a distance of five-hundred miles, the distance from their nesting ground is surely no speed limit in the bird-world, or if there is they certainly disregard it.

The warblers are seldom seen except by close nature students because they keep close to the tops of the trees in the daytime and migrate by night. On a warm spring or fall night a student who has his ears accustomed to sounding on the top of Mt. Oread, and hear high overhead the faint call notes of the migrating flocks.
Doubtless the small, brightly colored singing birds, that the old Spanish records say cheered the heart of Columbus as he gave courage to his sailors as they neared the unseen land of America, were members of the family of warblers.

RADCLIFFE GIRLS STILL
THREATEN TO WEAR CURLS
Ban on Barettes Displeases Them- Seven Rules Formulated by Dean of Radcliffe College
The Radcliffe College commencement exercises in June will resemble a kindergarten gathering if the college girls adhere to their resolution to receive their degrees with their hair hanging down their backs in braids or curls. This peculiar state of affairs has been existing since the posting of seven new rules for the costing of the graduates at the exercises next June. They were formulated by Dean Mary Coes, and are as follows:
First—Stiff white waist, with long sleeves; high linen collars, white bow tie. Second—White linen skirts, three
inches from the ground, and no buttons in front.
Third—The gown is to be one inch above the bottom of the skirt.
Fourth—White belts, with no buckles.
Fifth—Plain black oxfords and black stockings.
The girls, while dissatisfied with most of the regulations, have presented only one formal protest to the dean, and that is against the "barette" mandate. Miss Coes, however, refuses to annul the offending rule, and the girls say they will appear with their hair hanging down their backs.
Seventh—No jewelry of any kind.
Sixth—barrettes and no combs to
be used.

CAN KANSAS NINE CLINCH M. V. TITLE?
All Dope Points to a Victorious 1912 Base Ball Team
PESSIMISTS HAD BETTER HIDE
Optomism the Only Prevailing Spirit at K. U.; Should Pull Down State And Missouri Valley Title
It is full time for the proverbial knockers to either douse their little hammers and get a pleasant smile on their faces or else leave the University and go to some place where they will have more opportunity to carry on their pessimistic trade. For besides the other victories that the University of Kansas has pulled down this year, the chances for a Missouri Valley and state championship in baseball are looming up brighter than ever.
In fact, from the way the dope points, it is almost impossible for the Jayhawkers to get out of accepting this honor even if they so desire, and from the way the slabsters are working this last item is farcial.
While the game Saturday did not have any particular significance in itself in regard to clinching the M. V. championship, it nevertheless fill out the dope sheet for the state honors and incidently raises the average of the team. Sherwin's men will meet St. Marys College on McCook field next Saturday for the first time this year. St. Marys led in the state until they were beaten by the College of Emporia, and as the Jayhawkers put the blinders on the latter school last week, the chances for a victory over the Catholics seem clinched.
However, it will be necessary to beat Missouri two more games before Kansas can claim the M. V. title, but as this stunt has already been accomplished twice on McCook, it looks pretty easy for the Jayhawk May 17. And when the two teams clash on Rollin field at Columbia.
The team will leave on a week's trip through the state of Missouri next Tuesday morning. They are scheduled to play games with William Jewell, Missouri Valley College, Westminster and Missouri. Most of these games look like easy victories for the Kansas lads and they should come back swinging the Missouri Valley pennant high over their heads. Anyway an optimistic spirit is certainly prevailing, as it has every reason to exist, and the pessimist at the University of Kansas had better buy a one way ticket to the brush.

OREAD GOLFERS TO PLAY ANNUAL MEET
Handicap Tournament Date Has Been Changed From May 11 to May 13.
The date for the annual golf handicap tournament of the Oread Golf Club has been changed from May 11 to May 13, for the first tryouts for the semi-finals. This change of date has been necessitated because of the match game that will be played with the Evanston Golf Club of Kansas City next Saturday.
The handicap tournament is the largest and most important event of the year for the local team. Only members are allowed to take part and the championship of the club for the past year is determined by the scores made at this time.
The entries are chosen by a committee selecting the sixteen of the highest scorers in the club. These men play the rounds and by elimination are dropped for the semi-finals and finals, until the two highest play off the championship. A. L. Griggs, a Lawrence merchant, has offered an ivory faced driver to the winner. The names of the entries with their handicaps will be announced later.

DISTRIBUTE FISH TO POND OWNERS

LARGEST HATCHERY IN WORLD
Work at Pratt Nearing Completion Several Hundred Gold Fish Found in Drained Ponds.
Work on the new state fish hatchery at Pratt is progressing rapidly and twenty of the ponds are nearly completed, with water distributors, drain and supply pipes laid and in place.
Several ponds in the old hatchery are being drained, and ever greater numbers of fish are being found than was expected. Besides the crappie which are being taken from the pond, several hundred gold fish have been found. The gold fish were placed in the pond to supply food for the crappie, but a number of them seem to have escaped the mouths of the voracious pomoxis annularis.
Officials of the United States bureau of fisheries are watching the construction of the hatchery with much interest, which when completed will be the largest in the world. The government officials are also watching the success of Professor Dyche's distribution of one and two-year-old fish to pond owners.
The work is under the immediate supervision of Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish and game warden and professor of systematic zoology at the University. A large force of men with teams, scrapers, and other appliances are pushing the work on the

UNIVERSITY SPECIALISTS
HELP KANSAS CITIES
Extension Department Furnishes Information For Big And Small Towns Allike
A letter received yesterday from the mayor of one of the cities whose population is over 10,000 contained three questions for solution by the University specialists in the different subjects. One asked of licenses for motor cars, another for the electric, water and gas rates for Kansas cities and another for the tax rates in the towns of Kansas.
The municipal reference bureau of the University Extension department is being called upon by cities problematized with the need of vital interest to the cities.

Chapel Was Crowded This Morning When Noted Woman Spoke.
A SERIOUS CALL TO DUTY
Tells of Founding of Toynbee Hall by Oxford Students and Opportunities in College Life
Her message was a serious call to duty for the students of the University.
TELLS OF STUDENT WORK
Greeted by prolonged applause from the hundreds of students crowded in chapel this morning, Jane Addams stepped on the platform and began to speak. She was dressed in a plain dark suit with a black hat that was far from fashionable.
"I can't resist the opportunity to reach a little," said Miss Addams, "when I see before me so many possible converts."
TALKS OF STUDENT WORK
Miss Addams told of the establishment where the students at Oxford University, under the guidance of Arnold Toybwee.
"Every time I go to Oxford," said Miss Addams, there is a little party given for me in the very room where Arnold Toynebaby gathered his students about him and talked to them about knowing the poor."
"After his early death, these students wanted to do something tangible," said Miss Addams, "and they assembled Toybelle Hall in London."
MAKE COLLEGE LIFE USEFUL.
Miss Addas spoke of the many opportunities to connect things learned college with things in actual life.
She told of Dr. Alice Hamilton, who came to Hull House 15 years ago, and investigated the typhoid epi-病毒 using her science to better humanity.
Miss Addams told of the Greeks who presented classical Greek plays in the theater at Hull House; of the revolutionists, the Italian emigrants.
"The great thing to do," declared Miss Addams "is to bring about a revelation of one set to another, and for Americans to learn to bridge over the difference."

THROWING LIGHT ON SOME POLITICAL QUESTIONS
The progress shown in the art of debating in the championship contest held in Fraser hall last Friday night was a revelation to the ordinary student. As is well known, and in some quarters lamented, the ordinary student does not take much interest in debating. He is too apt to forsake the debating hall for the lure of the moving picture show, and leave the attendance of debates, he thinks, to the serious minded and be-spectacled library "licens" and seminar "sharkes."
But if the ordinary student has heard the carefully arranged and well delivered efforts of the high-school debaters. Friday night there is no doubt that he would have been shamed into a realization of his atrophied ability that would send him to the next inter-collegiate debate, in order to find out just what the University debaters are capable of doing.
To the thoughtful observer, there was another phase of the debating contest that means more to the cause of higher education in the state at large, and at the University of Kansas in particular.
In every congressional district in the state during the past winter, a dozen debates were held under the auspices of the Kansas high school debating league. These debates were more helpful to the cause of high school and college debating than any other series of events ever held in the state. The association they are held under is an outgrowth of the Extension Department of the University.
Thus the University has proved itself of definite and practical value not only to the thousands of high school students in the state, but to the people at large in opening up discussion of political questions that are before them at the present moment.
HOW LONG DO YOU SLEEP?
Recent reviews have had much to say about the amount of sleep necessary for the normal existence of a healthy person. It is a general opinion that the old admonition, "ten hours for a fool," was only incorrect in that it allotted a few hour's superfluous rest as the proper portion of an idiot.
For idiots, eight hours, is the modern view, physical workers, seven and brain workers, six. Geniuses must get along on three or four.
It seems to be a historical fact that many of the truly great have accomplished a tremendous amount of work with four or five hours of sleep. Perhaps, however, the quality of abstinence from sleep is a concomitant of genius that can not be acquired by practice, and the ordinary mortal must continue to "peg" along spending a third of its existence in a condition that is positively appalling in its resemblance to unending rest in the grave.
But the modern investigators of the phenomenon have propounded the theory of "sleep concentration." They assert that the first two hours
- sleep each night are by far the most refreshing and efficient in restoring the broken down nerve and muscle cells of the body and that all is needed after the first two are a couple more to finish up the job, and fill the remote interstices of the body as it wares with new tissue.
Many students, inspired by the accounts of the short sleep hours of such men as Thomas Edison and Napoleon Bonaparte, have tried the experiment of cutting off their sleep. In most cases the experiment fails, probably because a young and growing body needs more time in which to build itself up, after a day's work, than the organism which instead of gaining in size and complexity of nervous structure, is losing a little each day.
But, on the other hand, it is probable that most University students spend too much time in bed. There is usually a time in the early morning when one half wakes, turns over, sees the gray dawn, hears the birds, then takes a long breath and—goes to sleep again.
This first awakening is the body's notice that it has enough sleep. A healthy normal student should obey it. To doze after it, dreaming and half conscious, is a slothful habit.
NOT FROM BOOKS ALONE
NOT FROM BOOKS ALONE It is significant that of the twelve hundred people that dared the storm to hear Jane Addams at Bowersock's last night, more than half were University students.
This does not reflect on the people of Lawrence, however, because, being far removed from the influence of large cities and their problems, they are not intimately interested in settlement work. On the other hand, many University students are receiving now instruction and preparation that will best prepare them for social work in the large cities.
Many students are taking special sociological courses that are especially designed for the training of settlement workers, and this is probably the reason why some students attended Miss Addams' lecture.
But the majority of the students attended because they had heard of Jane Addams and her work, and because they are keenly interested in the sociological reforms that Hull House stands for', and the magnificent work it is accomplishing among the "masses" of Chicago.
The "average University student" does not live in an intellectual world circumscribed by the pasteboard covers of his books.
THE SCORNED ESSAY
Evidently, the writing of essays is looked upon with scorn by the average student at the University of Kansas. Each year, advertisements of several national essay contests reach the University, and are posted in a wall case in a corridor of Fraser hall. Not a dozen students find the literature interesting enough to read. The result is, the University is seldom, if ever, represented in the essay contests which attract attention in other large American colleges and universities.
There are about a dozen of these important essay competitions each year, offering something like $25,000 in fifty-five or sixty prizes; but if any students of the University submit manuscripts, it never becomes known on Mount Oread, and the list of winners never include the name of Jayhawk.
To the casual observer it would seem that students here never think on such subjects as, "A Lumber Policy" or "The University States," or backwarded from the Industrial Awakening of Asia on the Economic Development of the West."
Not only is it true that students of the University do not take part in national essay contests, but also they refuse to become enthusiastic over the simpler forms of essay writing. This term, the department English teaches, has usual course in the essay, for the reason that nobody enrolled for it.
Hope springs eternal, however,
and since the debate has shown a
strong tendency toward popularity
among the students here, its relative,
the essay, surely will enjoy a return
to favor soon.

UNCLE NICKELOUS
SULFIDE SAYS
"When a feller works on Saturday spadin' a garden an' gets blisters on his hands, nine times out of ten he'll tell down at the club he got 'em rowin' up to Cameron's bluff with a boat full of girls."
"The man that leaves the rings out o' his notebooks," said Uncle Nickelous Sulfide, "and don't keep his shoes blacked, and has to borrow a knife every time he sharpens his pencil, may not think he's losing part of his college education, but he is, just the same."
"These are the days when the University politicians git their fair young ears down to the grass roots to hear the call of the student-body, and there are some big healthy, horny-jawed beetles down in them grass roots that are just hankerin' to get a good bite out of them tender young ears."
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
Nothing can supply the place of books. They are cheering or soothing companions in solitie, illness, affection. The month to be saved is June, and you save for the good they impart. Let every man, if possible, gather some good books under his roof, and obtain access for himself and family to some important library, and if luxury should be sacrificed to this.
BROWNING WAS BORN
100 YEARS AGO TODAY
—DR. W. E. CHANNING.
There Was No Starring in a Garret and Bitter Drudgery of Wage-Earning for This Poet
Today marks the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Robert Brownning, May 7, 1812, at Camberwell, near London.
Today marks also, beyond the shadow of doubt, Browning's sovereignty in the kingdom of letters. During his life Browning waited long and patiently for such recognition as he knew was due him. Happily, even in his lifetime he received it in full measure. When Mahomet came to the mountain, he came humbly and prostrated himself before it.
Fortunately for Browning, and for the glory of English poetry, he could well afford to wait for appreciation. There was no starving in a garret, no bitter drugery of wage-caring, no hungry mouths to feed. Browning was surrounded during his whole life, not only with material comforts, but also with tender and sympathetic care. His sister and her husband in his sister, in turn watched over him lovingly. No doubt it was easier to wait for fame in Desdemona's Palace in Venice, than in Grub Street or the East India House.
It was this ease and security which permitted Browning to write, as professor Phelps of Yale says, "not to please the critics, an Tennyson often did, not to please the crowd, as the vast horde of ephemeral writers do, but to please himself." It is a matter of habit or monotonous whether or not Mahomet is愿意.
COMPULSORY STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION IN FORCE
FOR 95 YEARS
Nor must Mahomet be vexed if there are mysteries about the mountain, after he reaches it. Browning is not easy reading. He did not pretend, he himself said "to offer such literature as should be a substitute for a cigar or a game of dominos to an idle man." Hence, in an age that delights in moving-picture shows, Browning will still remain obscure to many.
But this does not mean that Mahomet should despair. The mountain offers an infinite variety of entertainment. It is much the same with all the great ones. Shakespeare is "myriad-minded." Hamlet forwards us to pluck the heart out of his mysteries, but there is Rollingstone, up against Arden, promising to woo us with with "a more coming-on disposition." Milton threatens us with "Man's first disobedience," but invites us to trip it "on the light fantastic toe." or
OLD FRIENDS IN VERSE
I saw the mountains stand
Silent, wonderful, and grand,
Looking out across the river,
Dark night was falling
On distant dawn and spire;
And I heard a low voice calling,
"Come up higher, come up higher,
From the mist of earth desire,
From the vain pursuit of self,
From the attitude of self;
Come up higher, come up higher"
(CLAREN)
Students of Washington University at St. Louis, Missouri, have been investigating the merits and defects of compulsory students' association membership. Return cards were sent to the leading colleges of the country that have adopted the compulsory membership or "The Single Tax," as it is called at Washington University. The conditions at the leading universities of the United States that have adopted the Single Tax or Compulsory students' association membership are tabulated. Reports were received from twenty-nine institutions altogether.

The number of years that this system has been used varies greatly. At University of Virginia it has been in force for ninety-eight years. The most popular fee is five dollars and the average is $6.30. The question is one of the most vital among colleges. Practically all questions against the adoption of this method of getting money for student activities have been answered.—The Clarion.

Miss Jane Addams lectured to a crowded house at the Bowersock Theater last evening. She was introduced by Mayor Bishop, and spoke for nearly an hour on industrial questions, the origin of settlement work, Bull House, and equal suffrage. Over the audience were University students.
"Settlement work had its orig. with university men in England," said Miss Addams, "who went from Oxford to the East side in London, and lived there to study their needs. These men demanded for the people, better houses, better schools and better labor laws, for children especially. These needs were carried to Parliament rather than to the landlords."
Miss Addams then compared conditions in Chicago with those in London, and told of the establishment of Hull House, in the heart of the foreign district of Chicago. She told of the work done by the women of Chicago, with playgrounds, city nurses, and county poorest妇女. The work, Miss Addams was made famous by the women, before it went into the hands of the government, thus justifying the claim that women should have a part in the government.
INFLUENCE OF PLAY GROUNDS
of the playground work, Miss Adams said. "The amount of juvenile crime is less within six blocks of the playgrounds than in other parts of the city.
The children are trained for citizenship rather than as a gang, with a leader. On the playgrounds everybody must have a square deal."
W.B.
Miss Addams is an easy speaker, and she charmed her hearers. After the lecture many of the audience went up to the platform to meet this "greatest woman of America." Mayor and Mrs. Bishop and Chancellor and Mrs. Wang, and the Reverend Olympia Brown-Wills received with Miss Addams.

Washington—To promote educational relations between the United States and Latin America the Pan-American Union plans to establish on July 1 a section on education. The study of Spanish and Portuguese and the history of Latin America in United States colleges will be urged. Universities and schools here will be asked to give more scholarships for Latin-Americ students.
Students in the United States will be encouraged to do work in schools of other American republics. Full information as to schools here will be furnished young men and women in Latin America who contemplate coming here to secure educational advantages.
Cincinnati, Ohio—The first night university to be established in the world is that in connection with the University of Cincinnati, one of the few municipal institutions of higher learning in this country.
It is planned to start the school in the fall. Complete courses will be offered and a separate "stuff of interns and professors will be enlanted.
Several hundred young men and women have enrolled as students. The degrees of B. A, and B. S, will be awarded. The idea has been passed upon and approved by the Union Board of High Schools, which asks that it be put into operation at once if possible.

WILL KANSAS PLACE IN OLYMPIC GAMES?
Four Jayhawk Cinder Artists to Try out for Stockholm Meet
COLLEGES WELL REPRESENTED
Other Western Schools to Take Chance
French, Hazen, Wilson and Woodbury to Enter Preliminaries.
Will the University of Kansas be represented in the big Olympic games that are going to be held in Stockholm this summer? For a far western college this statement seems rather out of the ordinary, but the chances for an affirmative answer are not in the least fair-like, and the opportunities for a Kansas man in Sweden are better than ever before.
Four men are going to Chicago in June to try out in the preliminaries. Will French, captain of this year's track team, will enter in the high jump, Wilson will take a shot at the broad jump, Hazen will try the hurdles and probably Tod Woodbury will go out for both the hurdles and pole vault.
In this largest athletic meet in the world, men from athletic clubs and colleges throughout the United States will be entered. To be selected as one of the lucky ones is considered about the highest honor an athlete can attain. Many of the eastern schools work to this end in the four years' training of their athletes and some of them are successful in carrying off high honors.
COLLEGES MAKE STRONGER SHOWING
In former years the athletic clubs of New York, Boston and other coast cities have been the most successful in sending trophy winning representatives. This year, however, the colleges are putting stronger efforts to bring some of the laurels on themselves and the men who have so far signified their intention of entering are considered to be the most promising.
Eddie Hanavan of Michigan and John P. Jones of Cornell are twowho will undoubtedly place in the distance running. Carlsle is also in the training camp and several of the Indians are meeting to get the trip across the pond.
In this section of the country the St. Louis and Kansas City Athletic clubs are expecting sure places, Lee Talbot, the former Cornell weight star will no doubt represent the K. C. A. C. Nicholson of Missouri is expecting a place in the hurdles, while Reid and Anderson of Nebraska are going in for the quarter and mile respectively. These with three or four Kansas tryouts will give the West a suitable showing.
The Kansas men will leave for Chicago June 1 where they will enter the Western Conference meet held there. The Olympic tryouts will be held the following week and the men will remain in the city until that time.
CHANGES WROUGHT BY FIFTY YEARS
"Yes sir, times and conditions have certainly changed here in the last fifty years," remarked E. F. Crocker, superintendent of buildings and grounds, to a reporter for the Daily Kansas, yesterday.
"I came to Lawrence from St. Louis, in 1855. The trip from St. Louis to Kansas City was made by a long week to cover the distance."
"Coming from Kansas City here, we drove overland with horses and wagon. That trip was made in two days."
Mr. Crocker went on to tell how he enjoyed riding, both on land and on water. He told of how the boat was stopped every night and tied to the bank, and then dancing and story-telling began.
"There was always plenty to eat,
years ago. I certainly enjoyed it all."
On being asked whether he remembered the building of North College, Mr. Crocker said that he hardly could recall the building process but that he remembered playing with other small youngsters over and around the foundation and of coasting from the hill where North College now stands, down to the bottom, just about where the Manual Training school is located.

BLANKET TAX AT BROWN
SHORT FOR ATHLETICS
Brown's experimental employment of the so-called "banket tax" for the general support of all forms of athletics does not seem to have demonstrated the unqualified feasibility of the plan to meet athletic expenses, judging from statistics obtainable as to the way the tax has been received. It is voluntary at Brown, the students being asked to elect whether they will subscribe to the tax. According to data furnished to the undergraduate body by George S. Burgess of the Cammarian Club, it would be consistent with to investigate the工作的 of the tax, the percentage of subscribers has generally fallen much below the requiree eighty per cent of the student body to make it a paying measure.
The Brown tax is $9, while at Wesleyan a similar tax is $15 and at Dartmouth it is $25, the tax being well supported in both institutions. When the blanket tax was inaugurated at Brown in the second term of 1910-11, the number embracing that method of helping out athletics was $15 way below the required eighty per cent. The second installment was supported somewhat better, with 363 signing up for it. Last fall 437 signed their willingness to pay the first installment of the year, making nearly the eighty per cent needed. The second installment brought out only 310 names, however, and the third and last of the year, recently posted, found only 260 supporters.

SPRING BOOTERS RETIRE
Practice Closed Friday, After Good Workouts - Haskell Scratch Image Off
Spring football practice for the 191
eleven was called to a close last Friday
by Coach Sherwin and the punter s
against him, who appear in uniform
again until next fall.
The practice this spring was particularly satisfactory and the chances for a first class team for next year look good. About thirty men were out the greater number of players, but the practices were spent mostly in running drills, passing the ball, and a little kicker.
The scrimmage that was scheduled to be played with Haskell Institute has been called off. Coach Kennedy's Indians have not come out often enough this year to warrant a mixup and the former Kansas mentor did not want his men to get a bad reputation early in the season.
FRATS PLAY TIE GAME
Sig Alphs-Betas Game in Game
Sixth Inning With a 3 to 3
Score
With the score of 3 to 3, a close game in the inter-fraternity series between the Sig Alphs and Betas was called yesterday afternoon in the last of the sixth on account of rain. The game was one of the best that has yet been played in this series, but it is probably lucky for the Betas, that the rain started right
the betas that the rain started when it did, as the Sig Algae were rapidly increasing. The probability have come out ahead if be nine innings had been played.
Honors were even in the first two innings and both nines managed to pull down two scores to their credit. In the third however the Betas got one the better on their opponents and held the lead until the opening of the sixth. It was in this stage of the game that the Sig Alphas were up with the horse or a couple of hitters more representative around the sacks and tied the score. And then it started to rain.
The Sig Alphs were handicapped at the first by not having their regular battery on deck. Hamilton and Davis are both on the sick list and though Riley substituted very well in the art of twirling the pellet, the man behind the bat could not hold his deliveries and it was necessary to change before the end of the game. This change, when Poole went in for Pucket, gave the Sig Alphs the needed stimulus for more consistent playing and in the sixth, when Rambo went in as a pinch hitter and made good, they were playing much the better game.
This is the second tie game the Sig Alphs have played in this division of the fraternity league. They divided the same number of honors with the Phi Delta a week ago in a ten innings draw. Both of these games will probably be played off later in the season.
Schwinn pitched good ball for the Betas but he did not have the smoke nor the delivery of Riley, neither did he have the same support in the field. He allowed four hits in comparison to Riley's two. Both nine chalked up three errors to their credit.
The score:

Man Writes to New York Sun Abom
The Universal Language.
The following was clipped from the New York Sun, being a communication to that paper:
Esperanto is a "good old has been". Its special alphabet, with letters contained in no language, living or dead; its badly chosen roots and unnecessary grammatical forms (obligatory accusative, plural adjective—Esperanto says "goods men," "bads boys," &c.) condemned it in the eyes of the committee of linguists known as the "Desert" and named for the question several years ago in Paris and elaborated a simplified Esperanto known as Ido.
Girls Outdo The Boy.
Those Shoes You Want Repaired.
The fanatical Esperantists, influenced by those interested in the sale of existing books, refused to accept the changes and are still trying to force on the world their crude, cumbersome and curious creation.
Not to be outdone by the Boy Scouts, fifteen East Lynn school girls have formed a walking club. The girls say that they return home perfectly fresh from their long trips, and thus far they have shown much more endurance than boys who have covered the same ground.

FIRST REAL SHOTS
FIRED LAST NIGHT
Things are Primed For a Live lly Student Council Elec tion Tomorrow
VAN HOUTEN AND COATS TALK
Rival Candidates for Presidency Spea in Myers Hall Before Large Crowd of Students
The first big gun of the commencement of the battle of the Student Council election was fired in Myers Hall last night. There has been a rattle of light musket for the last two weeks; real damage to the front has now the battle is raging in full force.
A large and enthusiastic audience of the representative student body gathered last night for the purpose of bringing up the real gist of the campaign. Ray Soper presided at the meeting and after a short introductory talk called Arch McKinnon, the president of the Student Council, to the floor.
MacKinnon said that it depended on the students as to whether or not they should elect men who were entirely capable of filling their positions and be strictly representative of the student body, or men who only had a selfish interest in the furtherance of their own cause.
The candidates for the presidency of the Council were both present and speeches were called for from them...
Charles M. Coats made the first talk, in which he reiterated and exemplified the platform which he is running on. He said that if he were elected it was his intention to carry out the present policy of the Student Council and to do his best, with the concurrence of the councillors, to eliminate all questions of faith. It is said he believed that the Student Council should be the most far-reaching organization, as well as a body on which the most responsibility rests, of any association of students in the University of Kansas.
The other candidate for the presidency, E. A. Van Houten, made a short sound and able talk to the point that as he was already a member of the Student Council, he was in a good position to continue their present policy and to encourage such would be advantageous to the men on it and the University as a whole.
The whole meeting was a reminder of the old-fashioned days when opposing candidates spoke in turn from the same platform or the back end of the same spring wagon. The meeting was successful and no doubt more interest will be taken in the election this year than ever before.
Rupert Peters, of Kansas City, Mo. will give an illustrated lecture on the Salmon Industry in the Northwest in Snow hall lecture room, Frighy at 2:30.
Several other candidates for membership on the Student Council were present, and gave short talks outlining their plans for making the support of the men present.
Professor C. H. Ashton, of the department of mathematics will entertain for the faculty and graduate students of the department, at his home, Friday evening, May 10.

STUDENT ENTERPRISE ASS'N IS NO MORE
Will Be Controlled in Future by Joint Board Subject to Conditions
RASIE THE PRICE OF TICKETS
The Purpose is To Admit Other Student Organizations And Make The Purchase Compulsory.
At a meeting of the Men's Student Council held last night, the scheme on which the Council has been working for the past year was completed and approved by both Student Councils and the Student Enterprise Association whereby the Associated Student Enterprises reinstalled all its rights and future be controlled by a joint board, subject to an number of conditions.
The board of control will consist of one representative from each enterprise and three members each from the two student councils. The Men's Student Council, however will formulate all of the rules for the government of the associated Student Enterprises and will regulate the admission of new members to the Association and the price of tickets will be regulated by the joint board.
ONE VOTE FOR EACH ENTERPRISE
The voting in this joint board shall be as follows. Each enterprise shall have one vote and the representatives of the Student Councils shall cast one vote for every hundred tickets sold to the members of the student body which they represent.
Among other agreements made are the retention of the present method of apportionment of the funds derived from the sale of the tickets until the transfer to the appointing of the treasurer of the University as custodian of the funds.
The purpose of the Men's Student Council in taking over this enterprise is to admit other student organizations, to raise the price of the tickets and if possible to make their purchase compulsory.
The Associated Student Enterprises was merely a makeshift formed before the Student Council was organized at the University, and all persons concerned in the new plan are very much in favor of it and feel that it will solve all difficulties which have hitherto confronted them. It is at present composed of six organizations, the Glee Club, the Band, Debating Council, Athletic Association, Mandolin club and Orchestra.

DYCHE'S FISH CAR LEFT TOPEKA TODAY
The "Angler" Will Distribute Fish as Far West as Colorado.
Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish and game warden, and his fish car, "Angler," left Topeka this morning at 9:40 o'clock on Rock Island train No. 35, and today and tomorrow will distribute fish along the Rock Island's Colorado line as far west as Colby.
The car is stocked with 12,000 fish of various kinds. A few fish will be dropped at various points to be placed in nearby streams, but most of the fish will be distributed among the farmers along the route. Hundreds of farmers and others who have written to the state hatchery at Pratt during the last winter and spring asking for fish have been notified of the schedule of the fish car for the present trip, and will be on hand at the various stops to get young fish to place in their ponds and streams. Last week the state fish car traveled along the Central Branch to the western part of the state distributing young fish. Next week it will make another trip across the state from east to west, probably along the Missouri Pacific or Union Pacific, and later along the other railroad lines of the state. "We are placing most of our fish this spring with farmers who have ponds which they want to stock," said Professor Dyche. "We are placing a few in the streams, but we have so many requests for fish for ponds and from people who will take care of them that we have not enough fish to stock the streams as we like.

TWO SCHOLORSHIPS FOR FRESHMENGIRLS
Kansas Kirmess Netted Fund Applications Must be in by May 16.
The Woman's Student Government Association announces two scholarships of one hundred dollars each. The scholarships are open to girls in this year's freshman class.
The scholarships are made possible by the Kirmess which was given recently on the University campus. The Association offered one scholarship last year and three the year before. It also hopes to be able to announce another scholarship next year.
Application for the scholarships should be made to Miss Eugenie Galloo, chairman of the committee in charge of the funds, at the Chancellor's office before May 16.

ERNEST VAN DYKE, OF CHERRYVALE, DROWNS
Freshman Engineer Attacked by Heart Failure in PotterLake
GEO. BABB RECOVERED BODY
Two and a Half Hour Fight to Save Student's Life Began Immediately But to No Avail.
While crossing Potter Lake for the last time before returning to the gymnasium for his clothing Ernest Van Dyke, a freshman in the School of Engineering from Chevyville, Kansas, became exhausted in the center of the lake and was drowned at a quarter after five yesterday.
The body was recovered and brought to the shore of the lake by George Babb, an instructor in the physical education department, five minutes after the student was seen to pitch forward and sink to the bottom, and artificial respiration was started immediately by Dr. Naismith who took charge of the work in attempting to restore the young man to life when he was brought on the raft to the shore.
At twenty minutes to eight last night, two hours and a quarter after the attempts to restore the man to life were started, the corps of eight physicians were forced to give up their fight. The body was then removed to the undertaking rooms of Lesher and Power Undertaking Company where it was embalmed and placed in a casket this morning. The drowned student's father was notified by telephone last night at seven o'clock and he arrived in Lawrence this morning from Cherryvale at nine-fifty.
A motion was entertained by the physicians who attended the body at Potter Lake last night for a post mortem examination, if the permission of the boy's father could be obtained, but at twelve o'clock this morning, it had been decided that no examination would be made.
The motion for a post mortem examination was entertained owing to peculiar features attendant upon the circumstances of the drowning—features that left a doubt in the study of the physicians as to whether or not death was due to drowning of the broader cause, heart failure.
Van Dyke and his roommate, Harry McKnight, had been in swimming in the lake for some time when they decided to swim to the southern shore where they left their shoes and then return to the gymnasium to dress. McKnight was swimming stronger and pulled ahead of his companion. When about midway of his roommate and saw him back forward and sink, apparently helpless. McKnight himself was exhausted, but he called to other men on the shore for help.
James Malcolmson, heard the cry and started toward Van Dyke. He reached him and started to the surface of the water with the burden, but he was unable to swim to the surface with the heavy body. Malcolmson jumped into a swimmer, but he is of a very slight build weighing only 115 pounds.
After he was forced to let the body go to the bottom he swam ashore. George Babb ordered several of the men to bring the raft to the center of the lake where Van Dyke had gone down and he began diving to recover the body. After the fifth dive he was able to find it and he brought it to the surface, placed it on the raft and took it to the shore. There Dr. Naismith, who had been called from the gymnasium, took charge of the work and started artificial respiration.
In a short time, Mr. Root and Dr. H. T. Jones, Redding, Curran, Chambers, Phillips, and G. W. Jones has been called to the lake and the corps of eight physicians fought to no avail two hours and a quarter for the life of the student. Electrical treatment by storage batteries was applied over the heart and at the spinal column in the hope that the electricity would make a heart reaction, but

ERNEST VAN DYKE
The death by drowning of Ernest Van Dyke, brings to the students of the University another of those most trying experiences in the history of our community. A large number of the students here did not know Mr. Van Dyke intimately, but, bound together by the spirit of fellowship and esprit de corps that makes all University people friends, they feel the deepest sorrow at his loss and wish to express their sympathy to the heart-broken parents.
Ernest Van Dyke was one of those serious minded students who make the reputation for institutions of higher learning. His standing in the School of Engineering was an enviable one. Both professors and classmates say that he was not one of those brilliant students who acquire their work easily, but rather a man who ranks first because of faithfulness—his peculiar efficiency in being prepared at all times won for him a record for scholarship of the most worthy kind.
All those who came into contact with him were attracted to him by his manly personality, his firm convictions in the principles for which he stood, his affable bearing and his generous heart. He was one of those students who are working their way through the University.
A young American who was about to enter upon the most efficient years of life, he had completed a portion of his training for higher service among men. The University feels the most sincere regret that one of its best members should be thus removed from the community.
NIGHT SCHOOL
Night school has been organized among the students of their own volition—a school that is new in one sense of the word and old in another. At any rate the attendance has been increasing every time the moon rises over the tops of the trees on the eastern shore of the Kaw river.
It was thought for a while that night school classes would not be held this year, on account of the late spring, but spring is here now and the "song of the bubbling brook is beautiful to hear." In this case the "bubbling brook" happens to be the wonderful Kansas river and its inviting waters furnish the work for the oarsmen, who are the grinds in this flourishing night school.
It is the same old story—we find some taking the burden and pulling the others through the course. And always the awful dam below warns the students (of the night) of their horrible peril if they do not keep up in their work. In our school, most of the oarsmen are excellent and none of them ever fail. Most wonderful of all there are no assigned teachers.
The courses offered are: navigation, landscape gardening, athletics, astronomy, bugology, reckoning of time, (sand) banking, surveying, and (social)ology. Any one or all of these are offered to all students upon filing application at the boat house any night.
THE POOR MAN'S COLLEGE Some of the large Universities of the East are showing decided rivalry to be known as "the Poor man's college," and all are careful to quote exact figures on the number of men who earn a part or the whole of their expenses while attending the University.
Perhaps Kansas with eighty per cent of the men students earning a part or the whole of their University expenses according to statistics gathered last year, might enter this rivalry for the reputation of being "the poor man's college."
It is a pleasant and significant fact that there is now a decided rivalry among even the biggest universities to be known as "the poor man's college." And there are plenty of facts and figures to sustain such claims in regard to most of them. Harvard leads off with the statement by the Harvard Bulletin that from one-third to one-half of its undergraduate earn money either during term time or in vacation, and thereby pay wholly or in part for their university course.
A recent statement as to student employment in Harvard shows that in round numbers between 750 and 1,100 men are working their way through college, and that instead of being in a caste by themselves an this account, they are honored according to their respective merits. Yale has more than 500 students who are helping themselves through its courses, and from Princeton comes word that ten acres of land were in trucks into truck companies where undergraduates are earning money for themselves and also helping to reduce the cost of living of other students by raising vegetables for the college eating-clubs and college commons.
On the whole, this is the most satisfactory piece of information that has recently come from our leading universities. It shows the democratic spirit is not dead but is flourishing vigorously. The fact that hundreds of students of Columbia and New York University and the other colleges of New York annually pay in whole or in part the expenses of their college course is well known. —New York World.
COLLEGE POSSIBILITIES.
There are some differing opinions of the relative value of the various phases of college life. On one the extreme, the view, that one should specialize in some activity other than his studies sufficiently to excel in it. On the other side, the view is that the class room and library work is all important.
Some people believe they are getting the most out of their college life when they make B grades. This class is relatively small. There are others, however, who would sacrifice studies to student activities. In their opinion a good athlete, a good debater, or a good leader generally, may barely make passing grades in class room work and still be deserving of much credit. These are narrow views. Primarily a person is at college to study. But if he is not living up to his possibilities. On the other hand, though a man may show extraordinary ability in athletics, in debating, in dramatics, or in any outside work, he should not consider himself worthy of being permitted to remain among college associates if he is not of average proficiency in strictly collage work.
Although he may not be a star in either studies or student activities, the all-round man who does as well as the average in what he undertakes, may be getting the most out of his college life.—University Missouri.
One of the least unpleasant ways for men who are supporting themselves in college to economize, is the management of eating clubs, whereby man who "signs up" a certain business, such as boarding house, is given his own meals gratis in return. The natural interest that all such arrangements which mean so much to the man who cannot rely upon the monthly cheek from home, should be taken solely by those who are working their own way. Unusually this is the case; but every little while we find in charge of eating clubs men who are of quite comfortable means, and to whom the lucrative result is a more added luxury. This is really an infringement of the rights and privileges of those who need to work for their education.
THE HEART AND THE STOMACH
We feel, however, that it is thoughtlessness rather than deliberate self-fashion which prompts this invasion of the legitimate field of the self-supporting man. Such a man we are proud of; his type conforms to Yale's
One of the least unpleasant ways for men who are supporting them selves in collapse or economic is the
highest ideals, and those who are better situated financially will do well to realize his frequent dependence upon the eating club, and to show more regard for his neighbor of narrower means.—Yale News.
THE WAY THE GRADS
WATCH US
An opportunity was offered by the circulation department to the members of the alumni association of the University and several of the old students to subscribe to the Daily Kansan and keep in close touch with their University. Many and varied are the enthusiastic replies that come by return mail.
To the Daily Kansan:
Your courteous and eloquent suggestion that I become a regular reader of the University Daily Kansan was received. I beg to inform you that I already enjoy that privilege, it being part of the priceless privilege enjoyed by all students of the university, the cult far more than the lure of lucre or the realization of the lure.

"LITERATURE AND JOURNALISM"
BEFORE the journalist can influence his time, he must represent it.
BEFORE the journalist can influence his time, he must represent it. He did so during the last century's second half, after the fashion and in the instances here set forth, by mirroring in his diction and treatment the literary tastes which the influence of Dickens and Thackeray had done something to extend and deepen, but which was really rooted in the intellectual prejudices as well as the educational methods of the time.
All that is now changed. Among newspaper people the good all round man, who may have had how and then a smattering of science, but who is particularly at home in politics and letters, and could do into flowing English couplets, for appearance in his newspaper next morning, the Westminster play, prologue and epilogue, has been replaced by the specialist of a few departments, by the manufacturer of literary pemican, and the condenser, sometimes of old-world folios, sometimes of the chief points in the universal Press of this planet, into tabloids to be taken as a whet for breakfast or for a digestive for lunch. This new work affords the performer as much real display, no doubt, of ability and resourcefulness, as tasks of a very different kind provided for his predecessor. No comparison between the merits of the two is here made or even hinted. The one concern has been to point out and illustrate the contrast between two epologies. J.-H. S. Escott in Fortnightly Review.
Wheaton has completed plans for a new era in that that next fall it will be opened as a college for women. Wheaton is the newest institution of higher learning in Massachusetts.

FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
"And thus my book hath been so much more pleasing to me more pleasure and more, that in respect of it, all other pleasures in very but trifles and troubles unto me."
-LADY JANE GREY.
Following the publication of Miss Helen Logan's editorial on slang in the Wellesley College News, of which she is editor-in-chief, word has been passed around to the students to "cut out the slang." Each girl who is heard to use the word fined, and the money will be added to the Student Government Building fund.
WELLESLEY TABOOS SLANG
The college girls call slang "undressed English." Here are some of the stock slang phrases which have been used at Wellesley and how they are said, with guesses by a more man as to the meaning of some of them:
Bat—To bat, or to go off on a bat.
Bat—Me, ME—always accented on the "lieve."
CALEB — A woman or girl you admire and respect for her achievements.
CALLEE — A woman or girl,
and respect for her achievements.
CRUSH — A thing a senior may fall
back on when she is out of town.
CUTS CHUNKS — Cuts great chunks
of ice.
**musculine** *kisses*
DUMPS - The misery that that doesn't love company.
DEWDABS—Masculine kisses.
EL—Staircases.
FREAKS—Persons one doesn't like.
FUDGE PIPELE—Purely exclamatory,
Gym—Good for promoted ankles.
NMT—Spoken always in
an endearing tone.
JAM-A flurry.
LAH-DI-DAH—Dressed up.
PEACH—Form of admiration, applicable to anything from a Harvard freshman to a new spring hat.
PEANUT—Persons who are not square.
PERFECTLY SWEET AND PERFECTLY WFLU—Used literally but frequently.
PILL—Same as peanut.
QUIa—An ordeal arranged by the faculty.
RIG—Costume.
**SCREAM—Anything that is comical.**
**SHAGGY—Mystery; used frequently.**
**SHARK—A person you secretly envy**
**publicly malign for her achievement.**
SWELL-Perfectly glorious.
V. L.'s—Persons you like; derived from violent likes—The N. Y. World.
VILL—Wellesley square.
WRITTEN AT MISSOLONGHI
My days are in the yellowleaf;
The flowers and fruits of love are done;
The worm, the canker and the grief Are mine alone.
The hope, the fears, the jealous care
The exiled portion of the pain
And power of love, I cannot share.
I wear the chain.
Glory and Greece around me see! The Spartan, borne upon his shield, Was not more free.
Yet—see—the sword, the flag, the field!
Awake! (no Greece—she is awake!)
Awake my spirit! Think through
your words.
Thy life-blood tracks its parent lake, and then strike home;
Up to the battle! There is found
A soldier's grave—for thee the
best;
Then look around and choose thy
ground,
And take thuy rest!
—Lord Byron.
And take thy rest!
The college fraternities throughout the country are protesting against the portraits of the undergraduate Greek letter man, drawn by a certain school of authors. It is maintained by the fraternity men that these stories not only injure the standing of the organizations, but that they give the impression of the men's impression of the fraternities and that he is thus induced to adopt exaggerated clothes and habits in hopes that he may be elected to one.
The students have a chance to "rest on their axes" this week and do some real hard work. Nothing has been scheduled to happen till Saturday, the dual track meet with Missouri and that is out of town.

We go where we're expected."

A fine thing
about attending the University of Kansas is that the student also has the privilege of attending Lawrence —typical old New England town in a Middle West setting, combining in just proportion the beauty and quiet of a charming residence city with the initiative and bustle of a live business center. It thus has the perfection of attractiveness that appeals to youth. Attend Lawrence four years and you can never forget the place where center the historic associations of Kansas —the Athens of Kansas.

ENGINEERS WILL DO LESS SCHOOL WORK?
Rumor That Students in the Other Activities Are to Have Work Regulated
The advisability of allowing engineering students to complete in athletics, debating, dramatics and other forms of student activities and carry the regular amount of work in the School of Engineering is being considered by a committee of the faculty.
This action was started at the last faculty meeting and a report will probably be made next Monday. Dean Marvin is much in favor of cutting down the school work of such students.
An effort will be made to have each activity classified and the work of the student arranged accordingly. This scheme will not allow the student to let athletes or other outside activities interfere with his work.
COLLEGE STRIKE GROWING
New Hampshire Juniors Join Lower Classes—President Firm
Durham, N. H., May 7—The junior class, fifty-five in number, today joined the striking freshman and sophomore classes of New Hampshire College, because of the suspension of W. H. Bracket of Portsmouth, president of the sophomore class, for ringing a false fire alarm on April 29 to distract the attention of the freshmen in order that his classmates might depart unmolested for Boston to attend their annual banquet.
The strikers, who now number 170,
say they will not return to their
classes until Brackett has been re-
instated. President W. D. Gibbs,
says unless the freshmen and sophom-
ores return before next Tuesday
they will be boiled and fresh-fried.
The freshmen and fresh-fried

TIGERS CONFIDENT OF TAKING BIG MEET
Missouri Men Have Things Their Own Way From Present Outlook
With the Jayhawker track squad going to Columbia next Saturday to run off the last dual track meet of the season with the Tigers, the question is arising in the minds of the Kansas supporters whether or not Coach Hamilton and his men can put the blinders on Coach Jones' team. The ever hopeful Jayhawker spirit is spurring itself to its limit in an endeavor to see a Kansas victory the outcome of the meet.
In a comparison of the two teams the Missouri lads have all the advantage. The most recent dope that has been put out from the Tiger camp points to a victory for Missouri in all events except the pole vault and the coolwurds are conceded immediately. But Browns will not enter the meet and so, from a Tiger's view point, the Kansas mansion won't even get one first.
JAYHAWKER POINY WINNERS OFF
The Jayhawk squad is playing in the hardest luck of the whole season at the present time. Some of the biggest point winners have recently been injured in such a way as to seriously handicap the small advantage acceded to them at the first of the season. Smith and Gribble have both been subjected to leg cramping in the recent meets ran on McCook. Gribble's leg drew on him in the interclass meet and he was not allowed to enter the Nebraska contest. Smith had the same trouble in the interclass meet, but was allowed to enter the Nebraska events. He was not able to finish, however, as his leg drew on him before the end of the meet.
ERNEST VAN DYKE, OF CHERRYVALE, DROWNS
(Continued from page 1)
all attempts to start the heart beating were failures.
When efforts to restore the young man to life were given up, Dr. Phillips ordered the body taken to the undertaking rooms, where short services was held this afternoon before its removal.
Last night Dean Marvin of the School of Engineering sent a telegram of condolence to Mr. Van Dyke, the father of the student.
That death was due to drowning was the only statement that any of the physicians would give out this morning, but they expressed some doubt as to whether death was in reality due to heart failure or not. They declared that a post mortem examination showed no short time if death was due to any internal ruptures of the arteries in the chest.
The students of the School of Engineering attended in a body the funeral services at Lescher and Powers undertaking rooms this afternoon and several of the Engineers will accompany the body to Cherryvale where funeral services will be held.
At a meeting this morning the Engineers passed a resolution expressing their sorrow at the bereavement of their fellow student.
Murray Also to Chicago.
Trough an error in yearteaday's Kansan the name of Oscar Murray was omitted from those who will be sent to Chicago the first week in June to enter the Western Conference meet, and also tryout for the Olympic contests. Murray will enter in several of the distance events.

STATEMENTS FROM
STUDENT COUNCIL
CANDIDATES
(Continued from page 1)
certain organizations in this University that are merely political strong holds. These bodies claim to represent the students and in doing this they fool the public. If you believe in this sort of affairs it will be to your advantage to vote against me at tomorrow's election.
I am in favor of the new athletic constitution, in the change of the date for the election of members on the annual board, and in the control of all student enterprises by the students. If elected I will take up this work and finish it to the best of my ability.
I have been unjustly charged with lack of experience but will defend myself by citing the excellent work accomplished by the two former, unexperienced presidents of the Men's Student Council.
(Signed.) C. M. Coats.
To the Students of the College:
The problems that will confront next year's Student Council involve, in a way similar to the past, a new set of rules.
of student life; the organization of student enterprises on the most efficient and business-like basis; and the greater co-operation between the different schools in the interests of the University as a whole.
As a candidate for representative of the College in the Men's Student Council, I pledge my efforts to the work of solving these problems, and any others that the course of another year will develop.
Membership in the Council should not on political or factorialties, but upon a man's ability to know student interests and to serve those interests intelligently and impartially, or the wider development of University life. With this purpose in view, I announce my candidacy, andolicit your support tomorrow at the polls.
To the Students of the Law School:
I hereby announce my candidacy for representative from the law school, on the Men's Student Council subject to the election tomorrow, May 9th.

experience I have had in the various student activities in that time, should qualify me for the office for which I am running.
If elected I will strive to stand for those things which are for the best interests of the law * school and school* "Favors to none, but justice to all."

the building of a Students' Union building. Also, except where it would detract from loyalty to the University, I am in favor of fostering at all times a school spirit and I believe there should be a general meeting and lounging room in every school of the University. I am in favor of the furtherance of the policy of the present Council in eliminating graft from all student organizations and the force of the Court taking control of all elections other than those of organizations, such as the election of officers for the Engineering School.
In the letter which you received from me this morning I have told you how I stand in my candidacy for member of the Council.
In the past two years I have become acquainted with most of you and I think I can represent your ideas. I have also been in a position to learn of the purposes and merits of the different student activities.
If you think the work of the present council should be continued, I would appreciate your support at the polls tomorrow.
I do not believe in the Student Council becoming involved in politics and being a member of no social organization I can independently decide concerning the problems which may arise.
10 the Students of the College:
I take this opportunity, granted by
the Daily Kansan, of announcing my
candidacy for membership in the
Men's Student Council from the College.
I fully realize the work and responsibility of this trust and if elected I will spare no pains to faithfully perform its duties.
And at all times I will endeaver to ascertain the will of the majority of the Engineers and will abide by their desires.
I am a sophomore. I do not believe that the entire personell of next year's council should be composed of members of the senior class. The council is a school organization and as much of the school should be represented as possible.

1, a freshman in the College, hereby announce my candidacy for member of the Student Council. Half the college next year, the freshmen and sophomore classes, will be unrepresented in the college class election detected from the present freshman class.
To the Engineers:
I endorse and will work for all plans and further University spirit, such as
To the Students of the `College:`
Therefore, so that the Council be as representative as possible, though containing a great majority of older voters, it would elect a leader at least one freshman tomorrow.
If elected I will stand for the wants and demands of those I represent, but only insofar as the welfare of the people as a whole is thereby advanced.
As candidate for councilman from the School of Engineering I wish to make the following statement:—
I most heartily endorse the action of the Students' Council in favour to eliminate all political factions from the Student Council election.
Being a freshman, I cannot without a show of egotism and presumption, commit myself definitely, as an authoritative question now before the student body.
I can only promise that with further experience, deeper knowledge of Uni versity affairs and continual effort, I will make a good councillor.

LAST CHANCE FOR W.S.G.A.PETITIONS
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 9, 1912.
Must Be in by Six O'clock Tomorrow—Election Next
Tuesday
NO FACTIONS OR POLITICS
Any Ticket Resembling Cliques Will be Considered Illegal—Judges for Election Are Chosen
All petitions of candidates running for positions on the Women's Student Government Association must be handed to the president, Miss Beulah Murphy, before six o'clock Friday May 10. Petitions must have the signatures of fifty women students and no class may be represented upon the petitions with a majority.
The candidate must also pay a fee of fifty cents to the president upon filing her petition; this money can be paid the expenses of the election.
The election of the officers and members of the Council will be held by secret ballot at the old check stand in Fraser hall, Tuesday May fourteenth.
The judges of the election have been appointed and are: Nell Martindale, Frank Banker, and Sophie Smithmeyer.
Miss Beulah Murphy, president of the W. S. G. A., says that any group of candidates which may come out which resembles in any way a faction or a following of party lines will be considered illegal. Each person must run by herself and no tickets will be allowed.
NO FACTIONS ALLOWED
Petitions for the following are being circulated: For president, Dick Lupton, Florence Payne, Frederika Hodder; for vice-president, Lina Coxedge (from the College), Leora Kuchera (Fine Arts); for secretary, Dorothy Ward and Marie Sealy; for treasurer, Bess Boell. Two vice-presidents are to be elected, one from the Fine Arts and one from the College; only one is to be elected for each of the other offices.
ELECT BY CLASS MAY 15
There has been a rumor out to the effect that tickets would line up as "Suffrage" and "Anti-Suffrage". This is entirely erroneous and no direct accusations to that effect have been made.
The election for the members of the W. S. G. A., will take place by classes Wednesday, May 15. Two members each from the freshmen, sophomore and junior classes will be elected; the seniors holding no election because they will not be in school next year. The freshman class coming in next fall will hold their election, then for representatives in the association.

WILL DISCONTINUE
COLORADO DEBATE?
Silver and Gold Says Rela
Severed
tions With Kansas Are
NUMBER 782
The annual Kansas-Colorado debates will probably be discontinued if the report in the college paper at the University of Colorado is authentic.
Silver and Gold, the paper published by the students at that University, says that the debating board of the Associated Students has decided to sever debating relations with Kansas.
The Debating Council of the University of Kansas has received no notice of Colorado's action.
"For several years debating relations with Colorado have not been the best," said a member of the Council this morning, "and it is probable that no debate will be held with that University next year."
BAND PLAYS OUTDOORS
First of Several Spring Concerts Will be Given Tomorrow
Will be Given Tomorrow
The first outdoor concert of the University band will be given tomorrow evening at seven thirty on the steps of the Museum. The program will consist of a variety of popular, standard, and classical selections.
Many students remember the open air concerts by the University band last year as some of the most enjoyable affairs of the school year. "There will be an opportunity this spring to hear several of these concerts," said leader McCanles this morning.

CAMPUS PAVEMENTS
Prof. Harry Gardner of the School of Engineering had his 11:15 class in roads and pavements out doing practical work this morning by inspecting the sidewalks on the campus.
The class is now studying pavements and the students had an opportunity to examine the workmanship, the materials, the defects, and the good qualities of the cement sidewalks constructed on the campus.
Compliments Journalism Head Prof. Merle Thorpe, head of the department of journalism at the University of Kansas, addressed the First District Editorial Association in Leavenworth Monday. He discussed methods of making his department of the University useful to the newspapers of Kansas. The journalism school has become a real help to every daily and weekly paper in the state, and the regents made a happy selection when they picked out Mr. Thorpe for the place which he fills so admirably—Kansas Notes in Kansas City Star.

1912 JAYHAWKER MADE BY ARTISTS
Plates Are Criticised by Department of Drawing and Painting
ON SALE AT SENIOR PLAY
The presses are running night and day printing the last pages of the 1912 Jayhawker which Manager Clark Wallace promises to have on sale at the opening night of the senior play, "Dope," next Wednesday night.
In making the Jayhawker this year, the editors have taken a departure from the old and regular character of the senior annual "made by the seniors for the seniors." It is a University book—everyone of the pages are teeming with features interesting to all students who have spent a part or the whole of the year on the "Hill."
Presses Running Night And Day to Get Annual Finished on Time— Cuts to be Returned
Quality has been the "pass word" of the editors ever since the search for material began last winter. And the proof pages show that this University-Jayhawker is the product of a staff of experts—expert photographers, cartoonists, artists, literators, printers and engravers. For the art work that has been done for the annual, the services of the department of drawing and painting have been enlisted and all the plate that will appear in the book have had their own recognition recognized critics in that profession.
ART WORK UNDERGOES CRITICISM
Miss Lois Harger, ex '12, has returned to her home in Abilene after spending a few days at the Theta house.
PICTURES MADE ON SEPARATE CUTS One new and distinctive feature of the senior picture this year is the fact that these pictures are made upon separate cuts, so that those seniors who wish to obtain the cut of themselves may have them by calling upon the business manager, Clark Wallace. Mr. Wallace will be able to return the senior cuts probably in a week or two after the annual has been published and they have been returned from the printer.
Many of the cartoons that have found their way into the Jayhawker were drawn by Maloy, the Daily Kansan cartoonist, and his work had to pass a more rigid inspection and criticism than could well be exercised in a newspaper office. Wellhouse has drawn several plates that have been printed in colors and that owners will be tempted to cut from the volume for framing.

CHANGE IS MADE IN SENIOR PLAY CAST
A change has been made in the cast of the senior play, "Dope," which was announced this morning. "Tod" Woodbury will not take the part of Steven Ghent who appears in the third act of the play. The part has been given to Stanton Shand. Mr. Woodbury was forced to give up his part in the third act on account of the heaviness of his work in the first two acts.
Stanton Shand to Take Part of Steven Ghent—101 Local Hits
With the exception of this change in the line-up for the play, no alterations have been made in the cast since the initial rehearsals. The cast is said to have the lines and business of their show well in hand. They are now working on the finishing touches of the production, which will be given Wednesday and Thursday evenings May 15 and 16.
All rehearsals are being held in the Bowersock opera house this week. The advance sale of tickets will go on at Woodward's drug store Tuesday before the first production of the play, May 14.
In reply to the demands by student play-goers that more local color and hits upon University celebrities be infected into the lines of the play, the playwright this year has culled one hundred and one of the best things that have taken place on the hill this year, many of the people who attend the performance are for the masdws scored to the delight of those around them.
Five features have been planned for the three acts of the show and scenery to reproduce some of the places on the album. At its core is the Willis Wood theater in Kansas City.
SHAM BATTLE MAY 30
University Company of K. N.

The K. U. soldiers will engage in a sham battle with Co. H, of Lawrence on May 31, the scene of the conflict to be witnessed by the Gymnasium or Woodland Park.
The managers of the park want the battel as a Decoration Day attraction but Capt. Steele of the K. U. Co. demands that the soldiers of his command receive free admittance to all attractions and stay as well as a prison, money, and the treasury have not yet decided whether to accede to his demand ot not.
The National Guards receive pay from the state for being on duty on Decoration Day, anyhow, so they will visit the park management will not pay them.
In the forenoon the company will march in parade which is always given on Decoration Day.

VOTERS ARE CROWDING TO THE POLLS TODAY
Intense Interest Is Shown in Student Council Election
980 BALLOTS WERE IN AT 1:30
sent—No Electioneering Done
Dodgers And Hand bills Were Ab-
Within 10 ft. of Judges' Table.
The votes of the Schools of Pharmacy, Medicine and Law were the most complete, nearly all the votes being registered there before noon.
Nine hundred and eighty ballots had passed by the judges when a record of the number was taken at one-thirty.
At half past one this afternoon about three hundred and twenty-five votes remained to be cast of the one thousand three hundred and twenty-two votes that may be cast in the election of the Men's Student Council.
In the Schools of Engineering one hundred votes remained to be cast after dinner and nearly two hundred votes were out in the College.
VOTING STOPPED AT 4:00
The absence of dodgers and handbills in the form of campaign literature was a marked feature of the electioneering about the polls this morning, but the interest betrayed was intense at all times. The candidates were allowed only to circulate personal cards and use personal suasion.
At one-thirty today both candidates agreed to call the election to a close at four o'clock in order that the counting might begin earlier and the final report be made early this evening.
At the polls, the candidates were not permitted to do their electioneering closer than ten feet from the judges desk.
100 MUCH MOISTURE
IN DRIED PEACHES
Professor Jackson Says $10,500 Would be Saved if Adulteration Were Prohibited
According to recent experiments made by Prof. H. L. Jackson in the food laboratory at the University $10,500 would be saved if the manufacture of adulterated dried fruits were prohibited. The federal food inspection of the Kansas State Board of Health states that "an abnormal quantity of sulphuric dioxide from marketing for fruit or marketing and excessive moisture content will be regarded as fraudulent adulteration."
Professor Jackson cites cases where some fruit tested in the laboratory contained over 19.4 per cent of moisture which is an excess of 7 per cent over the average amount. The professor stated that he wished to show by this experiment what an apparently small amount of water in minute quantities means when extracted from a greater quantity.
Entertained at Whist
Miss Isabel Gibb entertained twelve tables of whist at her home on Louisiana street yesterday afternoon. The house was decorated throughout in lilacs and bridal wreath. At five o'clock a four course luncheon was served at quartet tables. The prize, a brass candlestick was awarded to Miss Lucy March.

"Don't bother me" cried Baro. "This is election day and I'm busy helping my friends get votes. Just call it generally fair for tonight and tomorrow."

SENIOR RE-UNION
Public spirited members of the class of 1911 perfected an organization of their class last spring and drew up plans for activities altogether new at the University. The class selected a secretary and made it incumbent upon him to watch over the fortunes of the members of the class in much the same way as the secretary of the Alumni Association cares for his graduates.
Back of the desire to bind the members of the class closer together, there was the intention of creating a new tradition among senior classes at the University—a custom for senior classes to observe. At one of the meetings last year, plans for a reunion were completely worked out—this meeting of the class to take place at the dedication of the completed Administration building in 1915.
This determination on the part of the class of 1911 brought words of commendation from those who had watched senior classes graduate from the University and go away from Mt. Oread never to return again. At the senior men's smoker, vows were made and members of the class told how great a thing they were doing. They decided to give a loving cup to the first baby of the class and altogether aroused an unprecedented class loyalty.
However, since the close of the spring semester in 1911, nothing has been heard of a senior class organization comparable to that of the class of 1911. The class of 1912, although certainly offered the cooperation of the faculty and administration of the University, has never taken the steps to perfect their organization and make arrangement for their meeting upon the campus at the time of the dedication of the largest University building in 1915.
This is a project that is worth con sideeration by the leading spirits of the class and it is possibly not too late, even at this time, to undertake to get the class together for such ar organization.
Action should be taken quickly, though; a meeting held at once and a competent secretary selected to look after the interests of the members of the class after they leave the University.
Why not aid in the establishment of a University tradition that would be entirely worth while and would make for a better fellowship among the members of the class?
IS COLLEGEHYMNIA DEAD?
If it be not a crime against good artistic taste to consider the existence of a tenth muse, why not put in a call for the return of jolly Collegehymnia, the must of college songs?
On the University campus there never gather groups of students in the beauty of the evening, who sing together the old songs. In every other University and college there are traditions concerning certain songs, where and when they shall be sung, and by whom.
No such traditions exist here.
At other schools, especially in the East, it is different. There they "gather on the chapel steps and sing their songs once more." They celebrate some beauty spot of their campus, some glorious event on history, or some achievement of an old grad in full-throated melody that rolls across the campus like a solemn prayer.
The most precious recollections of a college life enduring when the last declension has vanished and the last formula has disappeared from memory and the last historical date has been forgotten, are the images that reveal the old times under the stars on the green campus grass when the company of chums blended their voices together in the moving chords of the old college songs—hymns they seem to an old grad.
The long-enduring effect of the singing of college songs by college students in the evening on the college campus is best lost at the University. Will not some one start a movement to revive the dying muse Collegehymia?
GAZING SOUTHWARD
GREENG SOUTHWARD
The Witchery of the Wakarusa!
You have stood—have you not—on the south edge of the campus and watched the southern hills of the Wakarusa dance and waver in the blue haze of warm May?
There is a charm about those dim hills and the level sweep of the valley between that almost eludes description. From the full springtide glow of their verdurous slopes they breathe the spirit of romance and adventure; they fascinate the eye of the observer; they lure the feet of the explorer. They have been the inspiration of youthful poets and the despair of budding artists since Mt. Oread became the home of growing genius.
Even the prosaic engineer has turned his gaze southward while on the pilgrimage between Marvin and Blake and let his fancy bear him above the moil of calculation and lead him to commune a while with the spirit of beauty. That spirit when followed by a mind artful enough to translate it into common thought and deep enough to keep its full message intact, is one of the greatest blessings a mortal worker can confer on the world that helps make him immortal.
And the surroundings of the University are very well fitted to inspire an artistic tinge and a flavor of romance to the character of the life work planned and prepared for on Mt. Oread.
YELLOW JOURNALISM ON THE WANE...
Dr. Calvin N. Stone, commissioner of education, in an address to the Pennsylvania State Educational Association, says that the newspapers and periodicals are a greater force in the education of the people than the public schools. He urges that the newspapers be more informed of study that a love of reading may be instilled into the mind of a child and nourished until he shall reach manhood
If the child is to read newspapers, the yellow journal should be frowned upon, and young journalists encouraged to practice memory and sympathy first, and always first.
Continuing, Mr. Brooks shows how visibly it is affecting pretty nearly everything we do and say and think. How it competes with churches, supersedes parliaments, elbows out literature, rivals the schools and universities and furnishes the world with a new set of nerves. And yet no one has attempted to trace out its consequences or define its functions.
Many Americans who believe that the most reckless days of yellow journalism have not passed will no doubt be glad to learn that Sidney Brooks, a careful foreign observer, thinks that already we have paid the price for this "precious product of American inventiveness" and can now begin to enjoy its fruitfulness. He feels that journalism, though a giant, is still a very young one and has been brought to its present form by a succession of astounding inventions, namely, the railway, the cable, the telegraph, the telephone, the rotary press, the linetype, the manufacture of paper from wood pulp, and color printing. These are, according to Mr. Brooks, the "discoveries of yesterday that have made the journal of today possible."
"It's youth," says Mr. Brooks,
"must be its excuse for whatever flaw and excesses it has developed. The yellow press, as I view the matter, is disorder of infancy and not of deep crepitude; is is a sort of journalist scurlet fever and will be cured in time.
Mr. Brooks does not think that the yellow press is irredeemably bad. In some instances he feels that it has rendered some real public services.
"The yellow journals have never failed to fly the rich perverter of public funds and properties, the rich gambler in fraudulent consolidations, and the far-reaching oppressiveness of that alliance between organized wealth and degenated politics with dominates America. They daily explain to the masses how they are being robbed by the treacherous applied with by the politicians and betrayed by their elected officers, *"* Their methods are wholly brazen, but it is undeniable that the public has benefited by many of their achievements."
In concluding Mr. Brooks says "Both Mr. Hearest and the late Mr Pulitzer have not only saved million of dollars to the public, but have fought a stimulating fight for democracy against plutocracy and privilege."—Washington Daily.
BUT THEY DEMAND A SQUARE DEAL
But this apparent instability is only the natural complement of the extreme and confident individualism of the people having succeeded in overcoming somany obstacles that were unavoidable, they do not doubt their ability to destroy them. But when they are structured. It thus happens that while no people endure the reverses of nature with greater fortitude and good humor that the people of Kanasa, misfortunes seemingly of man's making arouse in them a veritable passion of resistance; the mere suspension of injustice, rest
In a recent commencement address, Mr. Henry King said that conditions in early Kansas were "hair-triggered". Well, Kansas are themselves hair-triggered; slight pressure, if it be of the right sort, sets them off. Every one is on the quiteive, alert, vigilant, like a sentinel at an outpost." This trail finds expression in the romantic devotion of the people to the state, in a certain alert sensitivity to criticism from outside, above all in the contiguous enthusiasm with which they will without warning espouse a cause, especially when symbolized by a striking phrase, "We are native in Kansas, and the political history of the state, like its climate, is replete with surprises that have made it "alternately the reproach and the marvel of mankind."
MAKING LIGHT OF TROUBLE
There is a tradition surviving from the grasshopper time that illustrates the point. It is said that in the midst of that overwhelming disaster, when the pests were six inches deep in the streets, the editor of a certain local paper fined his comment on the situation down to a single line, which appeared among the trivial happenings of the week "A grasshopper was seen on the court-house steps this morning." This type of humor, appreciated anywhere west of the Alleghenies, is the type par excellence of Kansas. Perhaps it has rained for six weeks in the spring. The wheat is seemingly ruined; no corn has been planted. A farmer, who sees his profits for the year wiped out, looks at the murky sky, sniffs the damp air, and remarks seriously, "Well, it looks like rain. We may save that creep yet." "Yes," his neighbor replies with equal seriousness, "but it will have to come soon, or it won't do any good." When misfortunes beat down upon one in rapid succession, there comes a time when it is useless to strive against them, and in the end they engender an obscurity curiosity victim, who finds a pleasure in observing with philosophical resignation the ultimate caprices of fate. Thus Kansans, "coiners of novel phrases to express their defiance of destiny," have employed humor itself as a refuge against misfortune. They have learned not only to endure adversity, but in a very literal sense to laugh at it as well.
I have already said that the type of individualism that is characteristic of America is one of achievement, not of eccentricity. The statement will bear repeating in this connection, for it is truer of Kansas than of most communities, notwithstanding there is a nation abroad that the state is peopled by breaks and eccentrics. It was once popularly supposed in Europe, and perhaps is so yet, that Americans were all eccentric. Now, Kansas are eccentric in the same sense that Americans are they differ somewhat from other Americans, just as Americans are distinguishes from others. But a fundamental characteristic of Kansas individuals is the tendency to conform; it is an individualism of conformity, not of revolt. Having learned to endure to the end, they have learned to conform, for endurance is itself a kind of conformity.
fare sumptuously, the pressure of laws not self-imposed, touch something explosive in their nature that transforms a calm and practical people into excited revolutionists. Grasshoppers elicited only a wittiness, but the "mortgage fiends" produced the Populist regime, a kind of religion crusade against the infidel Money Power. The same spirit was recently exhibited in the "Boss Busters" movement, which in one summer spread over the state like a prairie fire and overthrew an established machine supposed to be the enemy of the revolution. "Higher Law" is still a force in Kansas. The spirit which pursued to obey "bogus laws" is still easily stirred. A people which has endured the worst of nature's tyrannies, and cheerfully submits to tyrannies self-impressed, is in no mood to suffer hardships that seem remediable.
Of course, some men are like pigs, the more you educate them, the more amusing little cusses they become, and the funnier capers they out when they say, "I'm sorry." Similarly, the place to send the boy of that breed is to the circus, not to college.
You bet it pays. Anything that trains a boy to think and to think quick pays; anything that teaches a boy to think quickly. You get things gets through biting the nervous pay.
College doesn't make fools; it develops them. It doesn't make bright men; it develops them. A fool will turn out a fool, whether he goes to college or not, though he'll probably turn out a different sort of a fool.

EDUCATION OF THE
RIGHT SORT PAYS
It's simply the difference between jump in rough-and-tumble, kick-with-the-heels-and-butt-in-with-the head-nigger fighting, and this grin andlook-pleasant, dodge-and-save-your-wind-till you - see a-chance-to-land-on-the-solar-plexus style of the trained athlete. Both styles win fights, but the fellow with a little science is the better man, providing he's kept his muscle hard. If he hasn't, 'he's in a bad way, for his fancy sparing is just going to aggravate the other fellow so that he'll eat him up.
From "Letters from a self Made Merchant" to John Graham, head of the house of Graham, father-in-law of the first wife, famously known on *Chance* as "Old Man Charlie," accidentally known to his intuitions. Priya
"Education's a good deal like eating—a fellow can't always tell which particular thing did him good, but he can usually tell which one did him harm. After a square meal of roast beef and vegetables, and mince pie and watermelon, you can't say just which ingredient is going into muscle, but you don't have to be very bright to figure out which one started the demand for pain-keller in your insides, or to guess next morning, which one made you believe in a personal devil the night before. And so, while a fellow can't figure out in an ounce whether it is Latin or algebra or history or what among the solids that is building him up in this place or that, he can go right along feeding them in and betting that they are not the things that turn his tongue fuzzy. It is down among the sweets, among his amusements and recreations, that he's going to find his stomach-ache, and it's there he wants to go slow and to pick and choose.
Does a college education pay? Does it pay to feed in pork trimmings at five cents a pound at the hopper and draw out nice cunning, little "country" sausages at twenty cents a pound at the other end? Does it pay to take a steer that been running loose on the range and living on cactus and pertified wood till he's just a bunch of bar-birr and sole-leather, and feed him corn till he's just a solid barm of porter-house steak and ale ool!
It's not the first half, but the second half of a college education which merchants mean when they ask if a college education pays. It's the Willie and the Bertie boys; the chocolate eclair and the tutti-frutti boys; the la-de-diah and the baa-ba-bialy-bog-ton; the high cock-o-alo-rum and the cock-a-doole-do boys; the Bah Jove girls, hair-parted-in-the-middle, cigaroot-smoking, Champagne-Charlie, up-night-and-in-all-day boys that make 'em doubt the cash value of a college output and over look the roast-beef and the blood-gravy boys, the shirt-sleeves and high-water-pants boys, who take their college education and make some fellow's business hum with it.

The commercial department of Fowler shops gives employment to from six to ten engineers each month, enabling them to earn the price of admission to the moving picture emporiums or to defray the expenses of a moonlight bortride on the Kaw as often as their eighty-five hours of work will permit them to go.
This work consists of making materials to fill rush orders that are sent to the commercial department. It includes foundry work, castings, turning, etc., and tedious duplicate work such as making threads on a large number of bolts with nuts to fit. In work of the latter kind, "labor long" employed beginser is able to thread about one bolt an hour while a skilled student will turn out 200 or more in half a day.
One student has worked for the last two or three weeks repairing the engine in the mechanical laboratory. He has taken the engine apart, cleaned it, and made new parts for the old ones that were worn. Jobs of this length, however, are the exe- cition.
The amount earned by each student working varies from $3 to $15 each month.

KANSAS TRACK MEN OFF TO TIGER TOWN
Twenty Men Will Make Trip to Columbia for Meet Saturday
DOPE BAD BUT TEAM HOPEFUL
Things Look Easy to Missourians but Hamilton Has a Dark Horse Ready to Spring
The Jayhawker track team will leave for Columbia tomorrow morning at 8:15. Coach Hamilton will take twenty men with him to Columbia. It is intended to run every man so that can be at his best in his particular events.
Despite the various bear stories that have been coming out of the Tiger camp a feeling of confidence pervades the Kansas cinder men that the going Saturday may not prove as easy as the Missourians expect.
Although Missouri track followers conceed Kansas but one first, dope points to a Kansas victory in at least the two mile, pole vault, bread jump, and an even break in the high jump and mile.
In the two mile Murray is running as he has never run before, having beaten the varsity record in two practices. To win this event the Tigers will have to equal record time.
In the mile Kansas will probably enter a dark horse, Macdonson, who showed his class in that event during the Engineer's field day meet.
In the pole vault and broad jump the Jayhawkers are working in good form, while Captain French is doped to go his best in the high jump. For the rest of the events it depends on how good the men are working. A special car will be run to Columbia.
The Kansas entries are as follows:
100 yards—D. Davis, Stuckey, Cisspair
440 yards—Smith, Black, Fairchild,
Cisna, Gribble.
220 yards -D, Davis, Stuckey, Cisna,

The immense strides made by Lyman H. Howe in the realm of animated photography since his last appearance here will be demonstrated at the Bowersock theater on Monday 8th may when many features will be presented in all the glory of nature's own colors. It is perhaps for this reason that hundreds of persons have clamoured for admission and been doomed to disappointment recently in the leading theaters of cities like Chicago, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Toronto, Montreal, Denver, etc., while eager "capacity" audiences sat content for half an hour awaiting the first glimpses of Mr. Howe's scenes. As many as 1500 people were turned away in one day from the Garrick Theater, Chicago during Mr. Howe's long "run" in that city.—Adv.

EASTERN SCHOOLS HOLD
GLIDER MEET FOR CUPS
A dual glider meet will be held on Alumni Field Saturday between the Dartmouth glieder team and the Cornell astronauts. The meet was to have been beld last week but the New Englanders were unable to get here at that time. A silver cup is offered by the local club to the winner of the meet. The contest will extend over until Monday and Tuesday of next week. Flights will be held each afternoon of those days.
The Cornell club will enter two gliders in the meet. The new monoplane glider has been thoroughly tested and its flights have been satisfactory. Although the b plane was damaged in a flight last Saturday, it has been repaired and will be used Saturday.
In determining the winner of the meet, contests in towed flying will be held and the aircraft will be determined from the speed of the towing automobile and the pull on the tow rope in connection with the total weight and surface. Stability in the air will also be considered in these flights. Tests in starting ability and accuracy in alighting will be held. Free glides will be tried if the weather conditions are favorable.
INVITE RECORD MAKERS
Invitation Meet May 16 Will See High School "Wonders"
Entered
May 18 the inter-scholastic invitation meet will be run off on McCook field and from the dope that has been handed out it will, in all probability, be one of the best yet staged.

The schools that will enter are as follows: Westport, Central and Manual of Kansas City, Mo., Kansas City, Kansas high school, Lawrence high, Topeka high, Wentworth Military Academy, Lexington, Mo., Kemper Military Academy, Booneville, Mo., Hillsville Military Academy, Cono, Mo., Missouri Military Academy, Mexico, Mo., and the St. Joseph high school.

LOCAL GOLFERS WILL PLAY ANNUAL ROUND
Oread Men Entered in Kansas State Golf Association
Tournament
The members of the Oread Golf club yesterday received from Secretary C. R. Guibor, of the Kansas State Golf Association, notification of the fifth annual tournament of the association, to be held in Topeka, on the Topeka Country club course, June 26-29. This is the first time that a club has been invited to enter in the state tournament, the local club having become a member of the state association only a few weeks ago.
It is possible that the Oread club will be represented by at least half a dozen players in the meet, although as many may enter as desire. Secretary Glubor reports that about one hundred entries from all over the state are expected. While the Oread club is one of the smallest and most recently organized of the golf clubs in the state, it contains two or three players who ought to have a good chance for high honors in the tournament. The local players have the addition of advantages of knowing the location of the Oread Country club, since the Oread team in the last two years has played several games on the links at the state capital. Preparations have already been started for the entertainment of *th* state golfers. A number of social events have been planned, including a dance.
and on Thursday evening of tournament week the annual business meeting of the association will be held for the election of officers and other trout matters. A banquet in honor of the visiting gallers will precede the meeting.
The sporting editor wishes to correct an error made in the Daily Kansas for May 6, in regard to the presentation of a trophy to the winner of the handicap tournament May 13. Briggs, a member of the club, will donate the ivory faced driver, instead of A. L. Griggs as was stated.
The qualifying round of the tournament will be played off on Wednesday, June 26, foroon and afternoon, 18 holes in the morning and 18 in the afternoon. The players will then be divided into three flights or groups of 16 players each, according to their scores, the 16 with lowest scores in the qualifying round playing out in tournament order for the four flights, cup, 16 with lowest scores in the last sixteen contending for the director's cup. In this way more than half of the players entering in the tournament will be certain at least two days of play. Additional consolation rounds are also announced for those who are forced out early in the regular tournament.
The semi-finals will be played on the afternoon of Friday, June 28, and the finals for the championship cup, as well as in the other coptests, on the following day. All finals will be for 36 holes. In addition to the cup already mentioned, a gold medal is given to the winner, and a cup for the runner-up in the finals in each flight. A consolation cup is also offered.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
One of the most interesting matches will be a contest between teams from the various golf clubs in the state, each club being represented by four players. The Oread club is planning to be represented in the match, which will be for 36 holes against bogey, match play, or played at the qualifier, the only requirement.
The annual state golf meet is one of the most enjoyable gatherings those interested in the game, and in view of the preparations now being made by the Topeka club for the entertainment of the visitors this year's meeting will be even better that those in the past.
The present officers of the state association are: T. B. Frost, president; Frank Colloday, vice-president; directors, H. G. Sternberg, Elm Ridge; C. C. Adams, Hutchinson; T. B. Griffith, Wichita; Jia. Murphy, Newton; H. S. Morgan, Topeka; Frank Goodwin, Coffeyville.
BETAS WIN INTER-FRATERNITY
Wilber's Delivery Takes Silver Debating Trophy to Betas for One Year
Wilber, who had the affirmative,
brought forward as authorities a large number of high school principals. University professors, and told why they were in favor of this change. He also used authority to break down the chief argument of the negative.
Allen Wilber, representing Beta Theta Pi in the inter-fraternity debate held in Fraser hall last night, was the first man to win the new cup which has been presented to the Pan-Heilennic association by an alumnus of the University. Wilber won the debate through his experience as a representative of the University in inter collegiate debating and his perfect delivery.
Phi Psis Slip One to Sigma Chis by the Error Route
The Betas will hold the cup for one year when it will be again debated for by the fraternities.
When the smoke of the seven innings of heavy hitting onthe part of the Sigma Chi and Phi Si teams had cleared away it was found that the Sigma Chis had einched the game by an 11 to 3 total. The hitting for both teams was fairly even but was offset by the bad fielding of the Psi Psis.
The judges said that four men Kennedy of Phi Gamma Delta, Wingtier of Alpha Tau Omega, Snyder of Sigma Chi and Codding of Sigma Nu were practically tied for second place.
The contest last night showed that interest is returning to debating here at the University, and while the crowd was not especially large, the arguments given for and against the six year high school course, and those cited on both sides were the result of a great deal of time and work.
LOSE GAME ON ERROR
The game opened with both teams hitting the pellet offerings of the opposing pitcher for runs. The score at the end of the second inning standing three tallies apiece. At that point both teams netted down and pitched shutout ball.
The men on the negative argued that the change to a six year high school course would entail the expenditure of an immense amount of money, and that it would be almost impossible for the country schools to change for this reason. This was their principle argument, but a number of authorities on their side were cited.
In the seventh the Phi Psis took an ascension. By the time order was restored, to a mixture of timely errors and bad pitching, five members of the Sigma Chi fraternity had completed the circuit. The Phi Psis were unable to come back in their half and when the sixth came the Sigma Chis brought in three more runs. In the last session both teams were held scoreless.

TELLS OF PASTEUR HIS LIFE AND WORK
Dr. L. V. Redman Discusses the Great French Scientist in Chapel
PASTEUR'S ECONOMIC WORTH
Saved France $1,000,000,000 by Disc
covery of Cure For Diseases At
attacking Silk Worm Larvae.
Dr. L. V. Redman, Julius Karpe, fellow in the department of industrial chemistry, spoke in chapel this morning at a French-American French scientist, his work and life.
In his address Dr Redman emphasized the great economic value of Pasteur's scientific discoveries, his discovery of a cure for diseases attacking hawr of sik worms alone amounting to a franc of $1 one billion dollars.
FORTY MILLION DOLLARS SAVED
"Speaking before an English audience," said Dr. Redman, "Pasteur once declared, 'To you dull Englishmen alone, who calculate everything in dollars and cents, the cure tor authrax,' a serious foot and mouth disease, has been a clear profit of forty million dollars.'
"Besides these," continued Dr. Redman, "he has given to the world the well known Pasteur treatment for the cure of rabies, and, in his experiments with animals, he was able to work in equalizing the cost of food products in different parts of the world."
THE CHARACTER OF PASTEUR
Dr. Redman commended very highly the noble character of Pasteur and in speaking of this patience, perserverence, and humbleness quoted Pasteur's own words, "Gok grant that by my persevering labors I may bring a little stone to the frail and assured edifice of our knowledge of those deep mysteries of life and death where all our intellects have so lamentably failed."

UNANIMOUS DECISION FOR K. U. DEBATERS
Cooley Club Defeated in Debate Last Night—Was the First Clash
"With one fell blow," delicared Theo, Sullian representing the Cooley Club, "the gentlemen of the opposition would sweep away the result of the progress of the ages." However, by a unanimous vote, the K. U, Debating Society, represented by Frank Carson, A. B. Campbell and Asher Hobson, defended the Cooley Club, represented by K. K. Simmons, Theo. Sullian and Orlin Weede in the debate, "Resolved, that the State of Kansas should levy all taxes on land values in preference to the general property tax." The K. U. Debating Society had the affirmative. The debate was held last night and was the first struggle between the two societies.
AFFIRMATIVE ARGUMENTS
The affirmative built their arguments on the following propositions, that the general property tax is inolerable since burden of taxation is not born by those who reap the greatest benefits, and since it tends to destroy thrift and industry, that's a man's individual initiative and effort should not be viewed as an economic tax, has its practical and that wherever tried the plan has proved successful, that it is an economic tax, one that cannot be evaded.
The negative argued that land is no different from other forms of wealth, and all wealth should be taxed alike, that the single tax is confiscatory and that under the single tax investment in land would be discouraged.
Walter Griffin presided at the meeting.
The judges were Ross Hall, Frank Brock and Louis Rufener.
ANTI-SUFFRAGE LEAGUE
Dissatisfaction With Equal Suffrage by Some of the Young
Since the organization of the Equal Suffrage League at the University and its unusual success as a new college activity, there has been some talk of a similar organization among the "antis" and an Anti-Suffrage League is a possibility of the near future.
Women
Among the promoters of the new organization, are a number of women employees in the offices of the University and students whose convictions will not let them join the suffragists, but who, nevertheless, like to have social good times as well as any one else.
The Weather.
The meter twins, Baro and Thermo have reached the conclusion that we need a variety of weather. So the prediction given out by the occupants of the little white house is: "Rain and colder tonight, fair tomorrow."
"It just isn't fair," said one young woman today, "for us to lose out on all of these nice teas and socials just because we don't want to vote, so we propose to have some of our own."

ADVISES STUDENTS TO AVOID THE MOB
Leslie J. Lyons in Y.M.C.A Talk States Necessity of Aim in Life
"We must become men that have fixed convictions in regard to the fundamental principles of life," declared Leslie J. Lyons, United States district attorney of Kansas City, Mo., who testified at the regular Y.M.C. A. meeting.
"While in the University you have a splendid opportunity to become well grounded in the principles for which you are going to stand and you should lose no opportunity to build up a strong basis for going out and doing your work. You are going to be grounded in the University can be of greater service to you than the Y, M, C. A."
"There are too many men that are blown about by the wind, that adhere to anything that is sensational and follow the mob. Men of education are blown about by the mob, the body politic and the dangerous flaws blowing in on the body politic."

Ever since the custom of granting baseball and track K's was originated at the University, the athletes of these teams have received notice of the granting of their honor letters, either during the week of final quizzes or not until they had packed their trunks and were on their way home for the summer vacation.
The baseball players and track men receive the greatest honor which the University student-body can give them, in a manner not at all befitting the occasion.
Students' Day, which comes on May 24, when the athletic seasons are virtually at a close, offers an excellent opportunity for a public announcement of the winners of the honor letter this year. The K committee of the athletic board should experience no difficulty in choosing the men for the honor from the baseball team, and there will be small chance after that date, for track men to win letters, who have not already done so. The basketball letters, which have been so long delayed, can be properly presented on this occasion, as well.
Student's Day should be made the annual date for awarding track and baseball K's. The problem of a public presentation of the honor would be solved, and the day itself would acquire much more importance than it now holds.
GENTLEMEN, THE BAND
Who was it said, some years ago, that a football game was a contest between two colleges to determine which had the worst band? Whoever it was, he would have a hard time reconciling himself to the idea that students and faculty would gather to hear a college band play with no other object than the music itself.
At the University of Kansas the band has changed with the passing years. It is no longer regarded as an aggregation of noise-making youths who are to be endured on public occasions because they mean well, and who should at other times, like the old-fashioned child, be seen and not heard.
Last year the University band introduced the custom of giving regular evening concerts on the Museum steps. It was not long until the students woke to the fact that the University band was, as a visitor at the Editorial Association meetings expressed it, "as good as anybody's band." The first spring concert of the band this year will be given tonight and indications are that the music fans will be in as large attendance as ever.
Outdoor ceremonies among the students are becoming numerous and they are adding to the University's roll of traditions. Gradually the student-body is building up a series of annual events which they alone can conduct and it is for the best. Perhaps if the other class organizations, the Friars and the Black Helmets, would follow the lead of the Sachems in devising some simple
scheme for conducting their pledging in the spring an embryo tradition would be strengthened and become inviolate. One day could be selected on which the announcement of all the pledges to honorary class organizations could be made and that day would be looked forward to for the the pledging of the society men.
MOTHERS' DAY
Sunday May 12 is National Mother's Day and all the men of the University should remember their best friends by wearing a white carnation in the buttonhole of their coat lapel. Many of us attending the University are far from home and a little token of some sort, sent so that "Mother" would get it in time for the right day would aid immensely in keeping the day set aside by the men for honoring their mothers.
Don't forget men! She never forgets you and if you could write a long letter for that day it would cheer one heart immeasurably.
IOTHER BEATTY'S CHICKEN
BIE
Only a few can make chicken pie that is chicken pie. And there are a few select people who can make the kind of chicken pie that lingers in the memory—bare mention brings a sniff of approval and one's mouth just can't help but "water."
That's the kind of chicken pie that Mother Beatty, makes and it was like going home last night, for the members of the Scoop Club who put their feet under the table at Mother Beatty's, to partake once more of that good, chicken pie.
The pie that was served in the little trenchers over at the "Dog-House" on the brow of the hill, became one of the most dear things to the students at chapel time, and its loss is more deeply felt at times when a group of students seek out the matron who made the mystic pastry and claim her art once more.
HELPING THE STUDENT FIND HIMSELF.
Following a suggestion of the Carnegie Foundation, and in accordance with a plan drawn by several members of its faculty, the University of Washington has just undertaken, through a course apparently embodied in the research agenda of the department, professional students "find themselves."
"The course is one of four hours given in the second semester of the freshman year to all men and women in the college of arts and science. It is divided into three equal portions, the first dealing with vocational opportunities, the second with the relationship of each individual department to the vocator for which it is preparing registrants, and the third with the general problem of student life, university ideals, and the most effective methods of study.
For the presentation of all this matter three different sets of lectures are required; first, leaders and doers in the world of action, who shall discuss the professional demands, and the responsibilities that meren and women go forth to meet in the world life; second, representatives of the various departments of the university, who shall speak upon the ends for which they and their immediate colleagues stand, and the means by which their academic training strives to fasten upon the youth the armor that the vocational opportunities and demands to demand, third, the executive heads—that is, the students—of the university, who shall say something constructive," who掌办 collegiate ideas, the social tendencies at the campus, and above all attention to some of the simpler psychological principles of memory, fixation, and ideas which mean so much in the formation of correct habits of study.
"It is a little curious that such a course in which an institution for studies turns to study itself,—indeed, the originators of the plan remark that a valuable part of its operation will be in its reflex action upon the self-consciousness of the university—should first have come into being at a new and far-western school; and despite the proximity of Seattle to the University of Washington, we incline to believe that a desire to help the student, to a knowledge of the world of real life for which he must prepare arises from a consciousness that western students, more than eastern, have not in their
Such a course would probably be of little value to the sophisticated and urban-bred young man of Harvard or Princeton, who knows upon matriculation where he will find the readiest field for his talents, and who has a direct realization of the exact steps which he must take to fit himself for the business and professional world in which from boyhood he has seen the oldsters about him struggling; except in so far as it would give him a more inspired and serious view of the part he should play on the stage of life.
"But that brilliant and earnest mind which so often comes to the western college under the shaggy hair of the farmer lad needs early tuelage as to the nature of the contest which it would win. This section of the apparently confused course in "self-finding would prove valuable."—The Daily Student.

The fact that the Physics Clock is eccentric is one of the best traditions of the University, and to destroy this tradition the university has an official name of the University of Karans.

FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
I am not going to preach to you any artificial stocism. I am not going to preach to you any indifference to money, or to pleasures of social intercourse, or to dislike your neighbors, or to any other of the consolations and necessities of life. But, after all, the thing that matters most, both for happiness and for duty, is that we should strive habitually to live with our bodies and surroundings in a nurture helps us more than our studies to this most blessed companionship of wise thoughts and right feelings.
Plans are being prepared in the office of the consulting architect and when completed and approved will be turned over to the bureau of public works (at Manila). The bureau is responsible for construction, and actual work will be commenced as soon as these are accepted.
The first president of the university, Dr. Murray Bartlett, was inaugurated on Dec. 20, 1911.
FOREST UNDER THE SEA
On the coast of Pembrokeshire, Wales, a primeval forest has been exposed through the washing away of sand from a great area of the bay. Trunks of trees embedded in great rocks were found, and have been removed for expert examination. Many of the trees are in a fine state of preservation, in some cases the wood has only changed color, while in others it is in the nature of coal. The total extent of the forest uncovered is about a quarter of an acre. Most of the trunks of the trees are encrusted with sandstone, and it is probably due to this that they are so well preserved.-Christian Science Monitor.
CHANGE IN EDUCATIONAL WAYS
—LORD MORLEY.
A CHANGE has come in the system of education, and this is brought out in the report of the board of education for 1910-11, which has just been issued.
"The child's life in school," it says, "is being brought into closer relation with his life out of school; the barrier 'which tradition has erected between the two is being broken down.
"At the same time the influence of school is spreading more and more widely over the whole sphere of the child's interests and activities."
"Education is less bookish and more practical than it was. In almost every subject in the curriculum, in English and arithmetic hardly less than in nature study and geography, the teacher of today uses the materials and experience with children are familiar in everyday life.
The report goes on to say that the child's amusements are as much cared for as his mental and moral development. He is taught how to use his hands as well as his head; to play as well as to work.-Monitor.
CEREMONIAL FORMS IN CHINA CHANGED
OLD FRIENDS IN VERSE
The Board of Education of the Nankin Government has issued a general order that the sacrifices of Confucius in his temple should be retained temporarily, as a set form of ceremonies has not been promulgated for the republic, but that the form of worship should be changed. Thekowtow, that is kneeling and bowing the head to the ground, should be changed and in its place three bows should be made.
As to other worships and sacrifices in vogue during the Manchu dynasty, all worships in connection with superstition, the board thinks, should be abolished, but the question should not be raised. The sacrifices in the provinces, as each has its own peculiar customary sacrifices—Japan Advertiser.
Our lives are songs;
God writes the words
And we set them to music at leisure;
And the song is sad, or the song is
glad
As we choose to fashion the measure
We must write the song,
Whatever the words,
Whatever its rhyme, or meter;
And if it is sad, we must make it glad. And if sweet, we must make it sweeter.
—Gibbon.

TOO MUCH MOISFURE
IN DRIED PEACHES
Professor Jackson Says $10,506 Would be Saved if Adulteration Were Prohibited
According to recent experiments made by Prof. H. L. Jackson in the food laboratory at the University $10,500 would be saved if the manufacture of adulterated dried fruits were prohibited. The federal food inspection of the Kansas State Board of Health that treats "adulterated" products of sulphuric dioxide placed in food for the purpose of marketing and excessive moisture content will be regarded as fraudulent adulteration."
Professor Jackson cites cases where some fruit tested in the laboratory contained over 19.4 per cent of moisture which is an excess of 7 per cent over the average amount. The professor stated that he wished to show by this experiment what an apparently small amount of water in minute quantities means when extracted from a greater quantity.

JAYHAWKERS CLASH WITH QUIGLEY'S MEN
Strong St. Marys' Team Comes Here to Tame Kansas Hitters
WILL WORK MAHONEY IN GAME
The Catholics Are in Good Form They Have Lost But One Game This Season.
Indications are for a close battle tomorrow afternoon when the Kansas base ball team clashes with Quigley's athletes on McCook Field. The Catholics seem to have hit their stride again coming here on a 6 to 1 victory over the Bethany Swedes. The St. Mary's team was up by 29, fracas with the College of Emporia, but seem to have gotten back into the running again.
Comparative depope points to a Jaw-hawk victory, as the Kansas base ball team has twice defeated the College of Emporia, while the Quigley athletes had all the worst of it in their attempt to tame the Collegians. However, it will be a close battle, as all of the St. Mary's are old men and in addition to the four players Mahoney especially for his purpose of taming the Kansas sluggers in revenge for that awful bump that their football athletes suffered last fall.
The Kansas team is not in the best of shape for the game, as both catcheers are on the injured list. Ogden having hurt his hand in practice and Binkleman getting injured by a fast ball last night in practice. Both men, however, are expected to be in shape by October's season, so the game and the team hitting in their regular stride Mahoney will probably find it a hard bunch to tame.
This will be the last chance of the Kansas fans to see the Sherwin athletes perform before they leave for a trip to foreign fields next week. McCarty will probably work on the mound for the Kansas.

By defeating Beta Theta Pi by a 14 to 8 score Alpha Tau cined the championship of their division. The Alpha Taus will now play the winners of the other division a series of three games, thus championship of the Greek letter league.
The Alpha Taus were the first to score, sending one run over the in first inning. In the second the Betas took the lead by bringing in three tallies. From that time up to the fifth inning the honors were fairly even, both teams hitting well with errors plentiful.
In the fifth the Betas blew up and nine Alpha Taus circled the bases cinching the game for them. Several runs were scored by the Betas in their half of the terrible fifth and three more in the eighth but the lead secured by the Alpha Taus during the aeroplane flight of the Betas was too much to overcome and both teams being held scoreless in the last imminent the game ended with the the Alpha Taus in the lead by six runs.

MISSOURI GRIDIRON PROSPECTS BRIGHT
Old Stars in Hard Battle for Places Against Promising Freshmen
Propects now, six months before the season opens, are good for the 1912 football team, according to C. L. Brewer, director of athletics, T. E. D. Hackney, who for two years was the Tiger star back and dropkicker, will have charge of the -backfield material and the kicking branch of the game.
"We are looking over the men who will be back next year," said Mr. Brewer last night, "and the material is good indeed. I could pick a team now of men who will be back and eligible, in all probability, which I thought would be stronger all around than the 1911 team was.
SIX MEN TO RETURN
The men named by Mr. Brewer as almost certain to return and be in the game include six M men, headed of course by Captain LeMire, and three others who are members of the Varsity. They are: LeMire and Knobel, backs; Bles, quarterback; Barton and Hastings, tackles or guards; Wilson, center from, toward them; Men from, forward from, quarterback; Gallagher and Thatcher, menilia, end, and halfback, may possibly return, but it not sure yet.
Then among the scrubs and ineligibles of last year are men that may develop into regulars. Among these are Lake and Wray, quarterbacks; Pankey, Deermort, Severs, Goodson and Spurgeon. From the freshmen team Collins and McWilliams, quarterbacks; Shepherd, fullback; Clay and Bolton, tackles; Lucas and Warnall, ends and Lamady and Delano, centers, are the most promising candidates. "Tubby" Graves, another man who might have made good, is not in the University now.
END MEN ARE WANTED.
End material, according to Mr. Brewer, is the main need at present. Mills is the only one of the 1911 ends that may be in the game. Wilson. All-Missouri Valley center, is being considered by the coaches for end, and is working there now. According to Mr. Brewer, he has the build and speed, and his tackles are hard and sure. Gallagher, 210-pounder, is being worked at center. Quarterback material is in abundance, Blees, regular quarter last fall, and Woodward, substitute quarter, will be back. Wray, now pitching quarterbuch on his Northwestern freshman team two years ago, and will be considered for the Tigers next fall. McWilliams and Collins of the 1915 team showed strength in the position, and Deermann, a man who did not go out last fall, has a good reputation as quarterback of Cape Girardeau Normal school.
THE TIGER SCHEDULE.
The Tiger schedule is better this year than last year. A game at home and a game away are played on alternate Saturdays, thus allowing two weeks between each trip.

TO TEST SAND FLY THEORY OF PELLAGRA
In Artificial Stream in Etiology Lab the Flies Will Be Propogated
A special appropriation has been made by Governor W. R. Stubbs to enable the Department of Entomology of the University to carry on investigations to discover the causation and prevention of the disease known as pellarton fever, a condition brought through the efforts of Dean S.J. Crumbine of the School of Medicine.
Since 1778 when the Patriotic Society of Milan offered a prize for the determination of the cause an immense amount of work has been done but as yet its real cause is unknown. The investigation at the University of Kansas shall be conducted along the sand fly theory of Sambon.
In the etiology laboratory an artificial stream has been constructed in order to breed the sand fly which according to this theory, carries the disease. W. T. Emery, K. U. '11, of the entomology staff of the University, will carry on the investigations this summer and next year. No definite sum has been appropriated but Professor Hunter said there would be plenty to carry on a thorough investigation.
This disease has become only recently a question of importance to Kansas, the first case being discovered at Oswego in 1911.
Appreciation of Sympathy Mr. and Mrs. Van Dyke have asked me to express, through the Daily Kansan, their keenest appreciation of the sympathy expressed to them by the members of the University body, both faculty and students, over the loss of their son, Ernest. These marks of sympathy are sources of great comfort to them.

500 Books Will Arrive in Law rence Early, for Sale at Senior Play
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 13, 1912.
FINANCIAL CONDITION GIVEN
NUMBER 80.
Will be Small Margin if Every Boo is Sold—Kansas City Star Praises It.
The printing work of the 1912 Jay-
hawker was completed last Saturday.
Binding remains to be done before the
books will be shipped to Lawrence to
be placed on sale.
A consignment of 500 of the volumes will arrive in Lawrence Wednesday morning and they will be placed on sale for the students after the first act of the Senior play, at Bowersock's theater Wednesday night May 15. Several students will circulate the books in the audience at the play and a long intermission is promised to afford readers a good chance for the perusal of the University book at the opera house WHAT THE KANSAS CITY STAR SAYS
One of the books was completed last Saturday and taken to the Kansas City Star office for reviewing. The Starsaid of the Jayhawk:
"The annual this year—bigger, better and more artistic that ever before—was produced 'without graft' by the students of the senior class of the University of Kansas. It is the first annual the publication of which has not enabled the editor and business manager to make anywhere from $500 to $1000.
"This year a radical departure was made in the method of publishing the book, and it shows results. Heretofore the editor and business manager told me that the book had been told to get out the book. They unusually did, but the book suffered."
MADE HONORARY LAST FALL
Clark Wallace submitted a financial statement showing the present status of the moneys of the annual to the finance committee of the senior class Saturday afternoon. This statement was approved by the committee without question. Harold Brownlee said this morning that in case a deficit was encountered, the senior class would have to levy an assessment to make up the total amount of the expenses.
Last Fall the senior class at the instance of the Men's Student Council voted to declare the positions of editor and business manager of the annual honorary offices with the financial backing of the class for the business manager, in case the publication should not pay out.
The present condition of the Jay-
hawker finances is:

CLARK A. WALLACE.

Cash on hand ... $1,425.00

Mr. Wallace also submitted a statement to the Daily Kansan which shows the probable receipts and the expenses that will be incurred in publishing the book. His statement is as follows:

"Assuming that these figures are correct, and I do not believe that they are far off, we are left with a book of only $887.52, which on a $4,000.00 contract of this sort is a little too close for comfort. This, too, is assuming that every book will be sold."

MINE SCHOOL TO BE ESTABLISHED AT WIER
Supreme Court Orders Regents to Found a School on $12,500 a Year
Last Saturday the Supreme Court of Kansas ordered the establishment of the state school of mines within twenty days. A writ of mandanus was also granted to J. M. Young and other citizens of Weir City. The writ compels the regents of the University to establish the school.
The regents have the $25,000 which the legislature appropriated for the first year.
A year ago it was enacted that $25,000 should be used to establish a state school of Mines and Metallurgy at Weir, Cherokee county. The University Board of Regents failed to make any provision for the establishing of this school. Action was taken against the university, tititus, and a few others, seeking a writ of mandamus to be issued against the regents.
"We simply desired to get some light on the statutes," said Dean Green this morning. "The University Board of Regents was unable to determine the true intent and meaning of the statute, but the action brought by Mr. Young has enabled them to ascertain the meaning."

No Word Here Upholding Rumor That Relations with Kansas Are Broken
BAD FEELING IS NOT NEW
Professor Gesell Says That if Colorad Withdraws The Council Will Substitute Some Other University
TO INSTALL KAPPA
SIGMA CHAPTER HERE
"We have heard nothing whatever from Colorado," said Prof. G. A. Gessl this morning, when asked concerning the report that Colorado and Kansas had severed debating relations. "Possibly Colorado has gone ahead and broken relations without saying anything to us about it.
"If they have done so, we are satisfied, for the feeling between the two schools has not been the best for several years, and an incident in connection with the last debate arose which did not help this feeling in the least.
"As soon as we bear from them, we will hold a meeting of the debating council to decide on the substitution of some other University with which to hold an annual debate. In all probabilties, nothing will be done until next fall."
"This will not affect our debate with Oklahoma and Missouri and we hope to repeat the medicine which we inflicted upon Missouri this year."

WASHINGTON WILL SPEAK TOMMOROW
Sasnak's Petition Granted by National Assembly at Danville, Va.
HAS BEEN LOCAL FOR 2 YEARS
Founded September 24, 1910—Sub rosa The First Year—Will Begin With 23 Men.
Noted Negro Educator to Address University Audience in Chapel
Booker T. Washington, who speaks here in chapel tomorrow, is probably the greatest man in the colored race today. He had done more for the negro than any other person and it is probable that he is considered as a bigger man among the negroes than any white man is considered in the Caucasian race.
The ninth national fraternity to enter the University of Kansas will be Kappa Sigma. Last Friday evening the Sasnak club, which has been existing for two years, received work from the Supreme Executive Council of the fraternity which was in session in Danville, Virginia, that its petition had been granted and that installation would take place in a few days.
The Sannak班 was founded September 24, 1910 and existed sub rosa for a year. Last fall when its membership had reached eighteen it moved to 1409 Rhode Island street and it is here that the local Kappa Sig will be for at least five years before leaving being made for the erection of new chapel house near the "hill" and within a year the fraternity hopes to own its own house.
LOCAL CHAPTER THE SEVENTY-NINTH Kappa Sigma was founded at the University of Virginia in 1869 and when the local chapter is installed they will have seventy-nine chapters. It has entered thirty-five state universities and has a membership that totals over 11,000.
"Spee" Brumage, E. P. Monahan, and Professor J. P. Trickey are the Kappa Sigmas who are in the University.
Active chapters are now in existence at Baker, Washburn, William Jewell, Nebraska and Missouri and with the addition of the Kansas chapter should make Kappa Sigma extremely strong in the Missouri Valley.
He was born in slavery about 1850, and after receiving his common school education be obtained his higher work in Hampton Institute in Virginia. After graduation he was an instructor in the institution for a number of years. Since 1881 he has been head of the Tuskegee Institute. He then worked as a teacher this school from insignificance to an institution which is of vast benefit to hundreds of colored people which attend each year.
He is the author of many publications, among which are the following: Up From Slavery, Sowing and Reaping, The Future of the American Negro, Character Building, Story of My Life and Work, Working, With Hands, The Negro in Business.

When manager Brummeap finishes sketching the setting for the first two acts, he refused to talk further, politely informing all that the third act would be a secret scene, would remain a secret till its production Wednesday night.
THE SENIOR PLAY REALLY HAS A PLOT
Am Analysis of Product From Each of Town Dairies Will Be Made.
"Yes, certainly our show has a plot," Brummage asserted, when asked if "Dope" was a conglomeration of local hits and features or really had pretenses of following out the truth. The truth that is the part we are keeping secret and I cannot tell you anything about the plot and its interwinnings.
The receiving parlor of the Women's Student Dormitory is the setting of the first act of the senior play, "Dope," which will be given for the first time Wednesday night in Bowersock's opera house. The women students and their guests are assembling there on the morning of the "big football game" of the year, swapping gossip, talking shop and living the life of all co-eds at the University.
Student Life Will Be Featured and a Sure 'Nuff Football Game Played
The federated women's clubs of Lawrence are conducting an analysis of the milk from each of the dairies of the town. Prof. H. L. Jackson of the department of chemistry is doing the work, and the analyses will determine the amount of butter-fat,
the amount of detrimental substances contained, and the cleanliness of the milk. So far the results have varied greatly as to the richness of the twelve or fifteen samples that have been tested.
This work will continue through the summer and the women are very anxious that it be thorough. For this reason they are particular that no dairies be overlooked. Those in charge to bring samples of their milk to the food laboratory in the chemistry building.
This work will have some practical value this summer and especially next fall and winter when the results will be complete.

WOMEN WILL CROWD TO POLLS TOMORROW
W. S. G. A. Politics Create Much Interest—Three Candidates for President
Election day for women!
Education day for women.
Tomorrow the body politic of the women of the University will express their preference for officers of the Women's Student Government Association.
Although, in the past elections there has been a decided lack of contest for the office of president, this year three equally strong candidates was in the race and the election promises to be something interesting.
The three leaders are: Miss Dick Lupton, Miss Frederika Hoddler, and Miss Florence Payne.
The Weather.
Campaign talk is plentiful and many rumors are out of election promises and secret pledges which are emphatically denied by all three candidates.
Baro has not quite made up his mind whether he likes cold damp weather or not. In the interval he predicts unsettled condition and slightly rising temperature for tonight and to-morrow.
FINE ARTS FACULTY WANT NEW BUILDING
A Petition Will Be Presented to the Board of Regents
EVERYONE FAVORS THE PLAN
Professor Hubach Says the Housing of the Fine Arts School is the Most Neglected.
A petition is being circulated by the students and faculty of the School of Fine Arts asking that the Board of Regents provide them with a new building suitable to their needs. It says that the school has no unity on account of its scattered condition, the different departments being housed in the Administration building, North College, and Dick Brothers studio down town. The petition was started by Helen C. Woolsey, a sophomore, and has been signed by all the students and faculty in the School of Fine Arts. It is now being circulated among the alumni and Lawrence residents who are interested in it.
The petition is as follows:
Lawrence, Kans., May 2, 1912.
To the Honorable Board of Regents
of the University of Kansas—
Gentlemen: We, the undersigned members of the faculty and students of the School of Fine Arts of the University of Kansas, do hereby petition your honorable body to provide for and erect as soon as practicable, a suitable building for the School of Fine Arts. The present quarters are scattered, poor, and inconvenient, and there is no unity to the school as at present accommodated, and we deem its present inconveniences a discredit to the School and to the University. We request that the legislature be asked for a special appropriation for this purpose at their next session and pledge you our support in the effort to obtain same.
Very respectfully yours,
Signed by all the students and faculty of the School of Fine Arts.
Miss Louise A. Wiedeman, an instructor in piano and who has been in circulating the petition said: "Every one to whom it has been presented has been glad to sign it. Not only students of the School of Fine Arts, but every one connected with the University have been very much in favor of it."
"In speaking of the petition this morning, Professor Hubach said: "The Fine Arts School was one of the earliest to be organized, and has been the most neglected. The need of a new building is evident to everyone who comes to the North College building. Other schools which were founded later have new buildings. The School of Fine Arts ought to be given an attractive attracting building it is probable that the number of students would be doubled if we had a building at least adequate to our needs.
ATHLETIC BOARD SLOW
Negligence of Members in Attending Meetings Delays K Committee Action
Because of the failure of the athletic board to meet this noon in accordance with the notice given out, it was impossible to decide upon the report of the new K committee. This committee is taking under advice that he granting K by a system instead of by the manner now practiced.
The committee has at present a plan whereby this may be done, but the athletic board is negligent about meeting. The meeting today was a continued one from the meeting Saturday, but as only three student members and two faculty members were present it was unable to proceed with the meeting in its entirety meeting will be called when the various members can arouse enough interest among themselves to have a full attendance.

MONDAY, MAY 13, 1912.
The organization of the college students is progressing nicely this year since its inception several years ago. At the election of officers the other day nearly a half hundred of the five hundred enrolled attended, and such was the enthusiasm expressed and displayed that the election was held in the first two minutes—the men were in such a hurry to get to their dinners. It is rumored that the collegians expect to do something in the next few years.
POTTER LAKE
The closing of Potter lake to swimmers is no doubt justified under the present condition. The lake is big enough to demand some kind of life saving apparatus. As it is there are no ropes, no boats and a raft has proved unwieldy in emergency.
The lake is a great place to swim, and it is very convenient for the students of the University. Young men, as a rule, like to go swimming well enough so that if they are driven from Potter lake they will go to the next best place—the Kansas river.
Why would it not be a good plan for the University to purchase a boat with some life saving apparatus and install it at the lake? Then open the lake to all of the students, and place a guard or a watchman on duty. This together with regular swimming hours would eliminate all the danger of drowning.
From five o'clock in the morning till night-fall the various tennis courts that have been put into shape this spring are in continuous use by both men and women students. Some of the enthusiasts forget their meals in their desire to play that best of games. And even then some of the courts are lined with players waiting their turn. Anything that could be done to provide more tennis courts for the student players of the University would be appreciated by a great number who have to wait a long time now before they can play for their half hour or hour.
"TIPPING"
Several kinds of personalities must be considered in connection with the important subject of "tipping" hats. There is the man with the tendency toward baldness. He, proud in the knowledge he gives the world, of a heavy gloriously grown crop; exposes his two horns from beneath his cap and wisely refrains from revealing the threadbare condition of his head.
Again, there is the shy man. He, hastily and fearfully takes a fleeting glance at the approaching peril and if she looks particularly worthy of cultivation, manages to touch his foretouch much in the manner of the Irish peasantry to their Landlord; if she fail's to pass inspection, he suddenly takes exceeding interest in the landscape and shuffles past.
The lazy man is classed with the overworked "Fusser." Both of these, if the occasion is extraordinary, manage to lift their caps or nats clear—being careful not to disturb the hair. But they have found from experience, a broad grin does about as well and is not nearly so tiring.
The politician has a class all to himself—one hesitates to pass judgment on him. The analysis is also that if the true, psychology of the that if the true, physiology of the politician on the art were only known, one would not have to pose as the lowly philosopher. However, one notices that except just before election the politician is generally too busy to stop to tip his hat, a hasty nod is sufficient and more duly impresses one of the importance of being a politician. Before elections though, the most Chesterfeldian bow seems to be appropriate, this to be used to everyone without discrimination of beauty, age or sex.
SLANG VS. CULTURE IN KANSAS
In spite of politics, Kansas has time for the cultivation of pure and dignified speech. Her state university has started a campaign against slang — or rather against hackneyed, offensive, uninteresting slang.
Some of these phrases and idioms that students are advised to avoid are national—unfortunately. A few are peculiar to Kansas or the section she is the center of. Of course, students from Kansas are national in their again" or in "That will be about all!" There are other wholly innocent or proper expressions in the list. The offense lies in wearisome repetition of them, in the bad habit of overworking them on all occasions. This destroys originality, freshness and variety of of speech. Slang is permissible when picturesque and lively, but stale and threadbare slang is without any excuse for existence.

A VALUABLE EXPERIMENT
From a very interesting experiment with four rats, recently made by Prof. James Rollin Stonaker, of the department of physiology of Stanford University, a great many illuminating facts can be drawn from the conclusion that Prof. Stonaker draws is that vegetable eaters have less endurance than meat eaters.
Placing four rats in rotary cages with speedometers attached, the professor discovered that in 25 months a meat-eating female rat ran 5,447 miles and a meat-eating male rat ran 1,447 miles, while a vegetable-eating female covered 447 miles and a vegetable-eating male 200 miles.
Far be it from us to take exception to the professor's conclusion that vegetable eaters have less endurance than meat eaters. One is apt to wonder, however, whether all the rats had equally good dispositions. There is just as much difference among rats as there is among men. Some rats are very disagreeable. Some of them might absolutely refuse to give an imitation of a college athlete running around the cinder tracks.
From the fact that the female rats, the vegetable ladies as well as the meat lady, ran away ahead of the male rats, one might infer that female human beings should have more endurance than male human beings. With the exception of bargain days in department stores and the ability to talk more, the inference is not supported by good evidence. It might be that meat-eating rats can run longer than vegetable eating rats, but who can say that meat eating humans can run longer than vegetable eating humans?
Until there is a race between a human meat eater and a vegetable eater—a race extending over 5,447 miles—we must decline to accept the result in the case of the rats as having any bearing on the endurance of humans. It may be that the particular female rat that covered 5,447 miles had a hallucination that a meat-eating cat was after her. Or it may be that the two male rats paused to talk over the base ball score.
One can never tell about rats. In justice to Professor Stonaker, however, it should be admitted that his experiment does prove that when a rat is in a proper mood it can run a good race —Washington Post.

STUDENT OPINION

To the Daily Kansan:
I would like to see the following published in your "kick" column—
Why can't Oread High School classes which complete their courses May 18 be dismissed that the University students in them have the much needed time to expend upon University subjects? There are two such courses at Oread this year the teachers of which, who by the way are seniors at the University needing the two weeks as badly as the students, have been ordered to spend the two weeks reviewing the completed subjects. One class petitioned the faculty and the petition was arbitrarily disregarded.
Why do some students pay tuition at Oread and others do not? Conversation with fellow students reveals this condition.
AN OREAD UNFORTUNATE.
THE NATIONAL GAME
WE got our language from the English and most of our institutions from the Dagos and Dutch. But there are two things I tell the boys that are all American. One's the good old flag and one's baseball."—Tim Murnane.
While you may not have heard of Tim Murmage and you could never guess that he was the first baseball player to “discover” the bunt, it doesn’t tax your imagination to figure just how nearly correct the foregoing statement is. But baseball did not come with the flag. For seventy-five years the young men of New York were more likely about the coming national game. But they were learning, blazing a way, as it were.
As early as the Colonial period the boys of this country were playing a crude game of baseball. It was descended from the English game of "rounders" and "and was known as "round-ball". When it was played, at the time of town meetings, it was called "townball". In 1809 he called it in a train localities, "baseball". In others they named it after the town in which it was played, as "Boston Ball" and "New York Ball".
It took from six to twenty players on each side to make a game. The regulation number on a field in the game was played on a field in the shape of a polygon. The ball was made of soft substance, usually rubber. There were no fair or foul balls; all that left the bat were "hits." The runner was hit with the ball when he was off the base and thereby put out. That was the reason for the soft ball. The pitcher was called the "giver." A ball caught on the first bound was an out. This game lasted for a number of years even after real baseball came.
But the "real baseball," a crude form of the great game of today, sprang into existence first in New York City. It was first played on the present site of Madison Square Garden. The first New York boys to work out the plan for the game in somewhat similar form to the way it is played now were organized into the Knickerbocker Club. The exact date of this game remains baseball game in New York is not known. It was possibly about 1843 according to a majority of the writers on the subject. Alex. J. Cartwright of New York is given credit by many as the real discoverer of the new game.
The first set of rules of the game was published by the Knickerbocker Club in 1845. There were fourteen of them to govern the way the game should be played. Only three of the original rules have been changed. The Gotham Club was the first rival of the Knickerbocker Club.
The game was quickly launched by the various clubs that sprang up and before ten years it was the popular sport of Manhattan. But it had a competitor for attention in many of the Eastern towns. That was the English game of cricket. In 1856 the newspapers of the country treated baseball and cricket equally in the sports columns.
By the late fifties many baseball clubs had started. There was the Tri-Mountains of Boston, and clubs at Portland, Buffalo, Rochester, and Chicago. 1858 Milwaukee organized a baseball club and it played annual games with the Chicago club. In 1859, the Eagles Club was organized at San Francisco by several New York clubs. The first baseball of Baseball Players was organized in 1859 and the first baseball commission was held. Many minor changes in the game were instituted at this first convention of the ball players.
When the Civil War came many of the clubs were broken up when the members left the bat for the gun. From 1860 to 1863 the number of
enthus in and near New York dwindled from sixty-two to twenty-eight. But the interest in the American game did not dwindle perceptibly. There were always odd moments when the soldiers in camp had time to play ball. Many of them became skillful with the practice thus obtained. A knowledge of the game spread further over the country as soldiers from the North and South met.
When the war was over the whole country was playing baseball. Many more clubs sprung up. In 1886 when the association issued a call for a convention of the baseball clubs of the country, 202 clubs responded. They came from the East, South, and the Middle West.
The first college team of baseball was formed by Harvard, combining with the town boys of Cambridge, in 1865. Tufts College followed next, then Yale. The first controllable curved ball was pitched by Arthur Cummings in a game between the Excelsiors of Brooklyn and the Harvards of Cambridge.
The game in the late sixties was slow. It was not half as fast as the game that we have today. Then there was no protection for the catcher's hands and the pitchers had certain restrictions placed on them regarding the delivery of the ball. Games often lasted four or five hours. In 1886 when the Atlantics of Brooklyn and the Athletics of Philadelphia played the second national championship game, they began at 2 o'clock and quit at the end of seven innings because of the darkness. The score of the game was 33 to 33.
From time to time the regulation outfit for the baseball came into use, piece by piece. Up through many associations the game of baseball came. Many of the early players were professionals who were dishonest. In 1871 the Amateur Association of Baseball Players gave up the struggle and about five years later the National League was formed. Eight clubs were in this first organization of the National League—C. A. H. —In University Missouri.
COLLEGE EDUCATION AND BOOKS
It is a question whether in escaping a college education I made a hit or a miss. I am inclined to the opinion that a little systematic training, especially in science would have been a gain, though the systematic grind in literature which the college puts its students through, I am glad I have escaped. I thank heaven than in literature I have never had to dissect Shakespeare or Milton or any other great poet, in the laboratory. I am pleased to dissect any animal in the laboratory. I have had the poets in their stimulating unity and wholeness, and I have had the animals in the fields and woods in the joy of their natural activities.
In my literary career I have escaped trying to write for the public or the editors; I have written for myself. I have not asked, 'What does the public want?' I have only asked 'What do I want to say?' What is there in my heart craying expression? What have I lived or felt or thought that is my own and has its root in my inmost being?
I have few of the aptitudes of the scholar, and fewer yet of the methodical habits and industry of the man of business. I live in books a certain part of each day, but less as a student of books than as a student of life. I go to books and to nature as a bee goes to the flower, for a nectar that I can make into my own honey. My memory for the facts and for the condition of books is poor. But my absorbible power is great. When I meet in life in my walks or my travels I must be me, or in the line of my interests and sympathies, that sticks to me like a burr, or better than that, like the food I eat.
So with books. What I get from them I do not carry in my memory, but it is absorbed like the air I breathe or the water I drink. It is rarely on my tongue or my pen, but makes itself felt in a much more subtle and indirect way.—JOHN BURROUGHS in May Atlantic.
ARTHUR W. THOMPSON, general manager of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, was riding in a freight engine in the Cumberland division of that road a time ago.
The train was a heavy one, made up of refrigerator cars loaded with the maximum tonnage for the engine. As they approached a grade the engineer leaned over to the fireman and rolled her up, old tallowpot, warm her up. She paused into her so she'll be katish to take the big dj for the knob."
"Will you kindly translate that for me?" asked Thompson.
"Why sure," said the engineer. "I told him to slip some chow to her so she'll rattle-dazzle the hump."

Would Eliminate Quizes For Pharmacist by Maintaining Higher Scholarship.
on
a make novelty all the y indians are assurance as they meet a show for students a show for students s, Mo.
"The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy should examine all students graduating from colleges not maintaining a high standard of scholarship," said Dean Sayre today in commenting on an editorial in the Meyer Brothers Drugsig magazine which stated that the only method of registration for pharmacy students should be by examination.
"To require all students to pass an examination would defeat one of the objects for which the board was created," continued the dean.
At the present all graduates from a college of pharmacy who have registered on their diplomas, must pass examination on entering another state.
Dean Sayre would eliminate this by maintaining a high standard of scholarship. Students from colleges, maintained and organized on a purely commercial basis, that pay no attention to scholarship would necessarily be required to take the examination.
Dean Sayre then continued by saying that there was no objection in rejecting the scholarship 'per se,' but if the diploma shows a scholarship requisite to meet all demands of public service no board should keep such student from registration.
Two functions of the Board of Examiners are recognized by the Dean; first, that of protecting the public from incomplete service; second, that of promoting a high standard of training and education. Too often the board makes these secondary functions by looking after its own self-perpetuation and existence.
"The Kansas Board of Pharmacy," said the Dean, "is based upon the ideal principle, and in its administration, is doing all in its power to further the interests of higher training and education. It has a good deal to contend with in furthering this purpose but is year by year making appreciable progress."

MRS. T. H. CHALKLEY ENTERTAINS AUNT
Reception Saturday In Honor of the Rev. Olympia Brown-Willis.
The Reverend Olympia Brown- Willis, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was the guest of honor at a reception Saturday afternoon, given by her niece, Mrs. T. H. Chalkley, 1121 Ohio street.
Mrs. Chalkley was assisted by Mrs. Clara Newport and Florence Payne, president of the College Equal Suffrage League. About one hundred guests were present, women of the faculty and girls of the University.
Mrs. Willis, with Miss Jane Addams, attended the State Equal Suffrage convention at Wichita last week. Mrs. Willis spoke of her lifelong interest in the cause of equal suffrage, and told of her experiences in Kansas, forty-five years ago, when, as a young girl just out of college, she campaigned the state for her chosen cause.
On Sunday morning, Mrs. Willis preached at the Unitarian church.
STRIKERS GO BACK
But New Hampshire State College Students May Strike
Again.
Recitations were resumed today by the striking students at New Hampshire State College. The students claim a "moral victory." The students declared that they did not vote to go back regardless of what disposition the trustees made c." the case of President Brackett of the sophomore class. They told President Gibbs they would go back but that if Brackett was not treated well they would strike again.
Brackett, whose suspension for the rest of the term caused the strike, will return to college next Wednesday, shortening his suspension to two weeks. He is to be on probation, however, as he is being lightning shortstop of the college team he is badly needed and the athletic association has begun a movement to get Bracket ett's suspension lifted.
The sixteen "co-eds" who went out returned today with the boys. The only four girls who did not strike are freshman. They wanted to strike but father and mother would not let them.

NINTH ANNUAL GOES TO TIGER'S CREDIT
Track Meet, Run in Heavy Rain, Favored Missouri 76 to 33
HAZEN RUNS NICHOLSON CLOSE
Missouri Star Takes 15 Points For His Team—Kansas Out-Classed as Mud-Plowers
Missouri won the track meet and Kansas "also ran." In the ninth annual track and field meet between Kansas and Missouri last Saturday on Rollins field, the Tigers made a grab at the Jayhawker bird and snatched 76 of the fine plumes from off the proud bird's back, leaving it a bare 35 with which to wend it's way back to Lawrence.
It was a case of who were the best "mudders" and the Missouri team showed up superior. Following a hard rain the night before, a cold drizzle started about noon and by the time the meet was called it had turned into a steady downpour. Only once during the afternoon did the rain slacken and near the close of the meet during the high jump, a miniature cyclone was raging. Especial
experienced in the take offs for the field events.
The dope was up-set in several instances, mostly against Kansas. The pole vault and high jump had both been conceded as firsts for the Jayhawker squad, but they were forced to content themselves with seconds. Patterson ran himself out in the mile and was unable to finish the last lap of the two mile and, though Murray put up a good peg throughout the distance, he was too light for consistent mud plowing.
CROWD BRAVED THE RAIN
Throughout the meet a bleacher congregation of about 300 Missouri roots defied the efforts of J. Pluvious to drown their enthusiasm and cheered their representatives on through the slushy track. Once their "sporting spirit" rather kicked out and some personal remarks verging on the sarcastic were made in regard to some of Kansas men, but this did not last long.
Stuckey and D. Davis led off the meet well for Kansas by taking first and second in the 100 yard dash. The time of :10 2-5 was exceptionally good for the bad track. The second event also went for the Jayhawk boys when Patterson captured the mile run by a pretty sprint. But this spelled "finis" for the Crimson and Blue team until the seventh event, when D. Davis took the 220 dash. Kansas played in hard luck at this time for they easily deserved both the first and second finishes heading his team mate and would have pulled down first honors without difficulty. Unfortunately he mistook a post about fifty feet from the tape for the finish line and deliberately stopped running. When he saw his mistake it was too late to pick up his lost lead and Kirksey for Missouri crossed the line second.
THATCHER BREAKS SCHOOL RECORE
THATCHER BREAKS SCHOOL RECORE The Tigers were particularly jubilant when Thatcher, a recent find, tossed the discus 132 feet, 10 inches, breaking the school record by a distance of over eight feet. Anderson, who took second in this event, also broke the record by about one foot.
Nicholson's promises to beat the world's time in the high hurdles was probably excusable for not being kept, but if he had accomplished this feat the University of Kansas would also have had a world beater. For Hazen gave "Nick" the run of his life and it was by a bare half length that the Missouri runner finished ahead of the Kansas man.
Thatcher and Nicholson were the individual stars for the Tiger squad while D. Davis took the most individual points for the Kansas team. The mule relay, which ended the meet, was easily Missouri's from the start. Hutsel ad off for Missouri by a good play. But Nicholson managed to hold it. Dr. J. A. Reilly of the Kansas City Athletic Club refereed the meet.

MUD BALLS
The above head is more appropriate for the Kansas-Missouri meet than the usual one of "Cinder Dust."
Stuckey succeeded in missing the train in Lawrence Friday but he certainly made up for all lost time when he won the hundred yards in :10:2 on a heavy track.
Hazen gave Nicholson a mighty close race for the high hurdles. Nicholson tried to stall after the event that he "loafed" on Hazen after the seventh hurdle. This might have sounded good to his own ears, but to those who saw the race it sounded like plain "hot air."
Assistant Coach Tidd apologized to Coach Hamilton for the jeerings of the Missouri rooters when French was high jumping.
Prof. H. A. Rice, the "big smoke" of the University, was on deck during the entire meet.
The name of "cinder artists" was especially appropriate for the Kansas track team after they had taken the trip from Centralia to Columbia.
The Missourians reverted to the trite "I told you so" at the close of the meet.
KAPPAS ENTERTAINED
SATURDAY EVENING
Fifty-Six Guests Partook of Buffet Supper and Danced Afterwards in F. A. A. Hall

SHERWIN'S ATHLETES HAD 104 PATIENTS TO MISSU' PASTURES IN MONTH OF APRIL
Missouri Valley Champion
JAWHAWK TEAM IN BAD SHAPE
Captain Hicks Out with Broken Jaw and Odgen Is Laid Up with Smashed Hand.
Will Sherwin's "Hopes" grab the Missouri Valley championship? The answer to this question will largely depend on how well the Jayhawk base ball team cavorts on a few of the Missouri Valley pastures during the fiscal week.
The team leaves tomorrow morning for a five days' trip through Missouri, ending with a death struggle with the jungle beast in his own hair. To cinch the championship the team need only take one game from Missouri, as the Missourians were romped on twice by the farmer lads from Manhattan, and when the final score of the Jayhawk-Aggie clashes were taken it showed the Kansas team on the long end of the score three out of four times up.
The first game of the trip will be staged at Liberty with William Jewell. Very little is known concerning the quality of base ball played by the diamond sharks of William Jewell, but it is expected that the contest will be close as the Liberty boys are pointing themselves for the game.
The jayhawkers will probably have very little trouble in defeating Missouri Valley College Wednesday, as the Bakeries managed to take them into camp the other day by an eight point lead.
The Westminster College game will be more of a fight, as the pitching staff this year is one of the best ever turned out.
The games with Missouri will depend altogether on what shape the team is in. Playing in the form which they exhibited in the Manhattan games, the Sherwin athletes should have very little trouble in driving the Missouri team from that shape to this shape the team will have to fight every inning to secure an even break.
With Captain Hicks out of the game with a broken jaw and Ogden in doubt on account of a smashed hand, the team is weakened considerably especially in their hitting. However, Coach Sherwin expects to be able to use Ogden, the few days' rest have helped his hand so that it will be in shape with a little binding. Twelve men will probably take the trip. The men taking the trip will be: Busick, Walker, Wilson, Ogden, Collidge, Ward, Ammons, Binkleman, Deichman McCarthy, White.

And 280 Patients Were in the Free Dispensary Clinics at Rosedale
Special Correspondence
University of Kansas Medical School, Rosedale, May 10—The reports of the Bell Memorial Hospital show that 104 patients were in the hospital for five weeks. There were 288 patients in the free dispensary clinics the past month.
Including today, there have been fourteen surgical operations this week. A majority of these have been major operations. About eighty-five per cent of the cases are "teaching" cases, i.e., clinical.
SOPHOMORES VISIT ROSEDALE
The sophomore medic class was invited to Rosedale today to visit the clinical end of the school. They were excused from classes in Lawrence. A part of the class came down on the morning train and was entertained by the faculty members.
Drs. Sutton and Sudler held an operative clinic consisting of four operations, and Dr. Murphy demonstrated some cases in the medical department. Lunch was served in the library, which was attended by the visiting students and the members of the senior and junior classes.
The afternoon program consisted of clinics and demonstrations in the Bell Memorial Hospital by doctors Murphy, Trimble, Clendeningn, Sutton, Wheeler. Students were taken to the country club in automobiles and entertained at dinner.
WILL BECOME INTERNES
A majority of the men who will graduate from the Medical School this year will enter hospitals for at least a year's service before beginning the practice of their professions. The following men will serve as internees: Dennie and Magill in the City Hospital of Kansas City, Mo; Owens and Flack in St. Margaret's Hospital; McCarty and Finney in the Bell Memorial Hospital; John and Milton Demand in St. Francis Hospital at Witzach; Fitzsimmons in the German Hospital, Morley will probably go to the city hospital, Blackwell Island, New York City, and Brobekli to Newton, Kansas. Zugg and Hecker will continue in their respective special lines in which they have already built up lucrative practices. Fred Hecker, a senior in the University of Kansas Medical School, went to St. Louis the first of the week to speak before the Academy of Medicine of that city. He has been doing research work that is attracting attention among scientific men.

WILL THE SENIOR PLAY TOUCH YOU?
Manager Brummage Has Had a Number of Able Detectives Employed
One of the unique and startling features that will be sprung at the senior play tomorrow night is the announcement of a long list of weeknight dates that have been suretitiously made and held in the past two weeks.
"Spec." Brummage, manager of the play has had an able staff of "detectives" and reporters on the story for some time and the results of their observations will be announced. Brummage said this morning that the list was long and would reveal a number of things.
The final dress rehearsal for the play will be held this afternoon and evening. The work on the production is in good shape, it is reported, and the one hundred and one local hits will be disclosed with an effectiveness that will "tell" when they "go home."
A feature of the football game that will be played on the stage is that the old rules of 1906 will be used—it will be the kind of game Coach Mosse approves of. The K. U. band will be in the stand to play boole when the team will be all probability a snake dance will be held after the victory,

Advises Sober and Earnest Work as Solution to its Problems
RISE OF THE NEGRO IN SOUTH
Now Own Property to Amount of $600,000,000—Object of Tuskegee is Not Culture Alone.
"Everyone must be patient in judging my race because in civilization, it is new," said Booker T. Washington in chapel at 11:15 this morning, "every race of people is likely to want to learn the last lesson in civilization first, instead of being content with a slow evolution, and the colored people are no exception. But the black people especially in the south where they are most numerous, are getting to be sober and earnest workers, and that, in my opinion, is the best sign which we have that our great problem is being solved."
OWN $600,000,000 WORTH OF PROPERTY "This change in the attitude of the southern negro toward labor is very marked and there is no hope for any people until they realize the beauty and dignity of all kinds of labor. My people own $600,000,000 worth of taxable property in the south while fifty years ago they didn't have a penny. They own farms, small stores, and are engaged in all kinds of business. The white people are helping us get a start and realize our disadvantages."
Mr. Washington briefly described his life and struggles from his boyhood days as a slave on a Virginia plantation to the present time. He was educated at Hampton Institute in Virginia after an early life full of all kinds of privation. He has since founded Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, which is undoubtedly the leading negro school in America.
WHAT IS TAUGHT AT TUSKEGEE
"We teach farming, cooking, carpentry, laundry work and all kinds of useful industries at Tuskegee as well as academic subjects. At the beginning many desired to have only cultural courses at the school, saying that the negro had been worked long enough, not realizing the vast difference between being worked and working. Our six thousand graduates are exerting a great influence for good among the colored people in the country, as any one familiar with the conditions will admit."
To the negroes in the audience the speaker said that they must cultivate good characters and a saving habit. "Don't spend your money as fast as you earn it but start a bank account to pay for the utilities. Start a start to work for you—Kansas has lenient laws for you and it is up to you to make good."
Owing to a late train, chapel was held at 11:15 this morning in the gymnasium. A large crowd attended the lecture.
SOPHS WANT AN UMPIRE
Ask Chancellor to Help Settle Passes to The Hop.
The finance committee of the sophomore class today sent a request to Chancellor Strong, asking him to obtain data on the passes that were used for the Sophomore Hop. A controversy has arisen within the class concerning the checking up of these passes.
Arvid Frank, manager of the hop,
claims that the disposal of passes was
entirely in his hands, following the
decision. He claims he has made no report of their disposal.
The members of the finance committee claim that passes should be completely accounted for in their final report to the class, and have asked the Chancellor to help straighten out the tangle.

AMATEUR POLITICS AND WO-
MAN'S SUFFRAGE
The election today of the officers of the Womans Student' Government Association may tend to determine whether or not the women of Kansas really want the ballot. The measure is now open for ratification by the people of the state and the interest shown in the choice of their officers by the young women who are representative of the state, may indicate strongly if they are ready for the ballot.
If, however, there is apathy in the ranks, or if, as is usual, half the women show that they even do not know the candidates and vote only because they are hustled to the polls by the political workers,—and if the University is at all representative of the state—Kansas women are satisfied with present conditions.
The milk supply at the boarding clubs is being tested. It is expected that the ancient satire, "May I trouble you for the cream?" will lose some of its point, for a few days at least.
At present, the building of the School of Fine Arts is at a safe distance from the remainder of the University—in a "ten acre field," where perhaps the best results may be obtained. However, if the Board of Regents gives them a new building and draws all of the Fine Arts students together, it may be surmised that the state architect will have some little trouble in securing another vacant lot on which to place their building. All the noises put together would make quite a conflation.
A School of Mines will be established at Weir City, but so far no exodus of boarding house keepers from Lawrence to the mining town has been noticed.
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT SLIP
OUT FROM UNDER
A collection of head lines of the Daily Kansan that showed, in a great measure, the influence of slang on the University graduate was published in this column on May 4. It was a collection that a communicant to the editor of The Nation had submitted following the editorial comment by The Nation upon an alleged campaign or crusade that the members of the faculty in the department of English here were making against the use of slang by students.
In this same connection, Professor O'Leary, of the department of English, immediately supplied the editor of The Nation with the accompanying paragraph in which the only accusation he failed to make against the Daily Kansan workers was that the entire story of the "crusade against slang" was the product of the imagination of a reporter and was developed at the Daily Kansan office: To the Editor of the Nation:
Sir: In view of the somewhat wide publicity recently given to the report that the department of English at the University of Kansas has
entered on a crusade against slang.
entered on a crusade against it. It may be proper to say that it has done nothing of the importance the department has always opposed the department slanginess of N." illustrates so amply from recent issues of the University Daily Kansan, in his letter published in your issue of April 25; and think it will continue to do so. Obviously its efforts have been unavailing, so far as the Kansan is concerned. It is but fair to note that though the Kansan announces itself as "the official paper of the University of Kansas," the department of English is not allowed to sustain any relation whatever to it, not even that of occasional advisor. No doubt, it may be said that this fact affords all the better evidence of the departments' failure to impress the young men and women of the University of Kansas with an abiding sense of truth that a reasonably dignified and respectful utterance is a thing from every point of view well worth while. Perhaps that is true. But now, am sure that our young journalist at the University of Kansas looks for the university as a fellows, genuine newspaper men who know a thing or two about American journalism as practiced today, and whose freedom to practiced verbal capers that will keep such academic person

INFLUENCE OF COLLEGE MEN
As educated men filter through the community, reforms are obtained that twenty years ago seemed millennial.
The separation of local from state sources of revenue, the separation of local from national elections, the treatment of a franchise as valuable property, the discriminating between ordinary industry and natural monopoly, the practice of scientific charity and penology, the concentration of responsibility in government—these and a score of other good things which once seemed as far above popular comprehension as four-dimensional space, have came to pass, thanks chiefly to the radiations from the classrooms.—Century Magazine.
CORNELL'S COMEBACK
IN 1897 President Benjamin Ide Wheeler, now of the University of California, was faculty representative of the Cornell navy. Cornell and Yale were leaving reunions for twenty years, and they returned to Professor Wheeler a race was arranged.
Wheeler was aboard the Cornell launch at the starting -point. Harvard and Cornell were ready, but Yale had not appeared. The Yale shot out shot here and enquired "Yale cannot be here for twenty minutes. Will you wait." Cornell?"
When the crews qf Harvard, Yale and Cornell met at Ploegeakees in July of that year there was much rowing contest, and a great crowd was present.
"We have waited twenty years to beat Yale," Wheeler replied, "and I guess we can wait twenty minutes longer," which in those days and at every Cornell banquet since has unanimously been considered a glittering example of the ready comeback, the quick-as-a-flash stuff, to say nothing of repartee. It is always produced just after the close-harmony boys at Table G have yanked the excelsior out of the Stein Song.

PIERREPONT'S EXPENSE

London Opinion.
Then the Self-Made Merchant Shows Graphically the Close Relation Between His Earning and Spending
The only sure way that a man can get rich quick is to have it given to him.
From "Letters to a, Self-Made Merchant to his Son," by Geo. H. Lorimer.
making a fool of yourself in the way that some of these young fellows who haven't had to work for it do. But because I have sat tight, I don't want you to make me look bad; that the old man's rich, and that he stands for it, because he won't stand it after you leave college. The sooner you adjust your spending to what your earning capacity will be, the easier they will find to live together.
Chicago, May 4, 189-
Dear Pierreport: The cashier has just handed me your expense account for the month, and it fairly makes a fellow hump-shouldered to look it over. When I told you that I wish you to keep it, I didn't mean that I wanted to buy a camibird. Of course the bills won't break me, but they will break you unless you are very, very careful.
FROM John Graham, at the Union Stock Yards in Chicago, to his son, Pierrepont, at Harvard University. Mr. Pierrepont's expense account has just passed under his eye, and has furnished him with a text for some plain particularities.
I have noticed for the last two years that your accounts have been growing heavier every month, but I haven't seen any signs of your taking honors to
I haven't said anything about this before, as I trusted a good deal to your native common sense to keep you from

him or to inherit it. You are not going to get rich that way—at least, not until you have proved your ability to hold a pretty important position with the firm; and, of course, there is just one place from which a man can start for that position with Graham and Company.
It doesn't make any difference whether he is the son of the old man or of theeller boss—that place is the bottom. And the bottom in the middle. The boss is a seat at the mailing-desk, with eight dollars every Saturday night.
I can't hand any ready-made success to you. It would do you no good, and it would do the house harm. There is plenty of room at the top here, but there is no elevator in the building. Starting, as you do, with a good education, you should be able to climb quicker that the fellow who hasn't got it; but there is going to be a time when you begin at the factory when you won't be able to lick stamps so fast as the other boys at the desk. Yet the man who hasn't licked stamps is not fit to write letters. Naturally, that is the time when knowing whether the pie comes before the ice-cream, and how to run an automobile isn't going to be of any real use to you.
I simply mention these things because I am afraid your ideas as to the basis on which you are coming with the house have swelled up a little in the East. I can give you a start, but after that you will have to dynamite your way to the front by yourself. It is all with the man. If you gave some fellows a talent wrapped in a napkin to start with in business, they would swap the talent for a gold brick apartment and there are others that you could start with. In that napkin, who would set up with it in the dry-goods business in a small way, and then coax the other fellow's talent into it.
I know that when a lot of young men get off by themselves, some of them think that recklessness with money brands them as good fellows, and that carefulness is meanness. That is one end of a college education which is pure cussedness; and that the one thing which makes nine business men out of ten hesitate to send their boys off to school. But on the other hand, that is the spot where a young man has a chance to show that he is not a light weight. I know that a good many things make nine pretty close proposition; that I make a few things which goes through my packing-house give up more lard that the Lord gave him gross weight; that I have improved on nature to the extent of getting four hams out of an animal which began life with two; but you have lived with me long enough to know that my hand is usually in my pocket at the right time. Now I want to say right here that the meanest man alive is the one who is generous with money that he has not had to sweat for and that the one who is a good fellow at someone else's expense would not work up into first-class fertilizer. That same ambition to be known as a good fellow has crowded my office with second-rate clerks, and they always will be second-rate, so that they down until you have worked for a year. Then, if your ambition runs to hunching up all week over a desk to earn eight dollars to blow on a few rounds of drinks for the boys on Saturday night, there is no objection to you gratifying it; for I will know that the Lord didn't intend to你 own boss.
STUDENT OPINION
WHOSE FAULT IS THIS?
To the Daily Kansan:
The editor is not responsible for the letters expressed here. Conventions must be signed as an e-mit.
Since "A Maturdul Climber" has voiced his sentiments in regard to the P. C., I have done considerable thinking and have come to the conclusion that it is a tradition that the electric clock in the library should have no hands at all.
While it is only a little thing there are but few students who enjoy having the librarian tell them that is closing up time every night. Time flies so fast in the library that one must look as at his watch often, there, and be very valuable moments and worse still, having his chain of thoughts broken.
Will the Daily Kansan please tell me if this is the case?
If it is not one of the University's time-honored traditions, I should suggest that the electric clock be fixed up so that it can have a hand in telling library habitants the late-ness of the hour.
A Nocturnal Grind.
OPTIMISM
Table manners are being taught at the Kansas State Agricultural College. We shall not, after this, expect Kansas young men to try to balance peas on their knives or to tuck the napkins under their chins or to dig out the chutney with their 'ingers—Chicago Record-Herald.

Question: Will all the seniors be alumni after commencement?
Answer: Yes, certainly—barring accidents.
Question: Will they have to go out into the cold, cold world and forget their Alma Mater?
Answer: They will have to go out into the cold, cold world.
Question: But they will not have to forget their Alma Mater?
Question: When may the senior properly do this?
Answer: Not if they subscribe for the University Daily Kansan.
Question: Isn't that a very liberal offer?
Answer: Very.
Answer: RIGHT NOW, because a subscription for next year turned in before May 30 entitles the subscriber to the Summer Session Kansan free.
A fine thing
The Merchants' Association Lawrence
about attending the University of Kansas is that the student also has the privilege of attending Lawrence —typical old New England town in a Middle West setting, combining in just proportion the beauty and quiet of a charming residence city with the initiative and bustle of a live business center. It thus has the perfection of attractiveness that appeals to youth. Attend Lawrence four years and you can never forget the place where center the historic associations of Kansas —the Athens of Kansas.

SUSIE HAS LEARNED TO WORK A LEVE
The dogs, that are being experimented on by Prof. F. C. Dockeray, of the department of psychology, have advanced remarkably in their schooling.
The professor told his class yesterday morning how one of the dogs, Susie, had been taught to get her food.
The door to the dog house is opened by a lever inside the house. This lever opens and closes an electric power which in turn operates the door.
Susie has been taught that the only way in which she can obtain her food, placed outside the house, is by pushing down on the lever and opening the door.
In order to test her, the food was placed outside, in plain view. The door, this time, was left open. Susie saw the food and in her usual procedure, she walked to the lever and pushed it down. As the door did not open, she repeated the operation.
She did this several times but made no effort to go to the food.
The door was then closed by Professor Dockery. Susie pushed upon the lever, opening the door, and walked out to get to her meal.
Camped in the Rain
The Alemannia Club camped at Cameron's bluff last Friday and Saturday. They secured the bungalow belonging to Chancellor Strong and Dean Templin, and forgot the rain as they sat around the fireplace, telling fish stories. The trip was made in Dean Templin's motor boat.

It has been customary on this occasion to have an elaborate banquet, with several toasts after it to add to the formality. But this year a change was brought about. Refreshments consisted of ice cake, cream, divinity and "kisses," while punch was served throughout the evening. No toasts were given, the only entertainment furnished during the evening being musical numbers. The simple reception was indeed a success, and it is hoped that classes in the future will pattern after it.
The Junior-Senior reception was held at the home of W. A. FIerson Friday night. The rooms were decorated with school pennants and streamers of crepe paper representing the class sheet of program of piano solos and readings was used as the junior class. Following this program a four course served was.

The opponent for the Kansas men will be Jack Cannon, who is playing for the University of Missouri. He at one time held the Missouri Valley championship.
Seven cups are offered by the University of Missouri to the winning men. One cup will be awarded to the winning school, one to the winner in the basketball team, one to the winning team winning the doubles, and one for each man for runner-up in the doubles.

SIGS DIVISION CHAMPS
Phi Gams Lose Game to Sigma Chis Through Indiscriminate Errors
nate Errors
Five errors in two innings tells the story of the Phi Gams' defeat in their clash with the Sigma Chis for the division championship yesterday afternoon. Up to the last of the seventh both teams played league ball with the Phi Gams in the lead by one small point. The Phi Gams met their two men out the Sigma Chis faced runs around the bases on errors and practically won the game.
The Phi Gams were the first to score making three runs off Wilson's deliveries the first and the second the Sigma Chis managed to make two runs Craig's came first. After that both players set scores and held their opponents_scoreless.
The seventh opened with the Ph Gams up in the air. The Sigs took advantage of this opportunity and ran in two scores. In the eighth the Ph Gams were held scoreless and the heavy Sigma Chi hitters galloped around he bases for five runs. In the ninth game, they had a chance managed to get two men on bases, but the Sigma Chis, playing like old time ball players, quickly put a quietus to this attack by the fan route plus a sensational catch by Bramwell.
The championship of the league now rests between the Alpha Tau and Sigma Chis. These games will be played off the 22, 23, and 24 of May. The trophy is a large silver loving cup.
The score:—

—Rumors About the Football
Game
It was rumored today that in the football game which takes place in the second act, Kansas loses to an ancient and valiant or perhaps more versatile enemy, and the remainder of the play shows how and why the defeat was administered to the varsity team on their home gridiron.
However, the detective work of the reporters has been to no avail, for the manager refuses to admit any other than those who are taking part in the show to enter the theater for rehearsals—the members of the cast were sworn to secrecy before they were given roles in the play—and the manager refuses to talk.

TO AVOID MISTAKES
Every year some students find they have taken courses in the summer session which do not satisfy University requirements. Students are admitted without regard to these requirements, and therefore never, never the less be met for graduation.
Those who wish to may pay their fees and complete their registration at that time.
To avoid such mistakes students should enroll early and Prof. Walker has kept certain office hours, which will be posted later, at 202 Fraser, students wishing to enroll, and advise them in regard to the requirements.
Professor Johnson, High School Visitor, will make a trip through southern Kansas this week, visiting the towns, Thayer, Neodesha, and Caney.

Quiz Schedule Decided a University Council Meeting Yesterday
Because May 30 is Holiday All Examinations Could Not be Finished The Last Week
The Last Week.
The time of the final examinations is drawing near. The bleary-eyed, horned head, cloven hoofed monster which makes his appearance at least twice each year and who sends his impish off-springs at divers others periods in the course of the daily grind, will show up next week.
The University council met yesterday and extended a special invitation to the bogy, and the examinations are scheduled as follows:
11:15 classes, Saturday morning,
May 25.
10:15 classes, Monday morning,
May 27.
1:30 classes, Friday afternoon,May 24.
2:30 classes, Tuesday morning, May 28.
4:30 classes, Tuesday afternoon,
May 28.
8:00 classes,' Wednesday morning May 29.
3:30 classes, Wednesday afternoon,
May 29.
9:00 classes, Friday morning, May 31.
Three hour classes will be examined in
10:00 if scheduled for the
morning; 13:00 until 3:30 if scheduled
for the afternoon.
Two hour classes will be examined from 10:20 to 12:00, if scheduled for the morning; 3:50 to 5:30 if scheduled for the afternoon.
At the regular meeting of the K. U.
Debating Society at 7:45 Thursday
evening, two questions of great moment
no will doubt be settled. The subject
of the first debate will be, "Resolved
that the State of Kansas should adopt
the Initiative and Referendum" and
for the second debate, "Resolved that
The United States should intervene
in Mexico."
Laboratory classes are to be examined at the time corresponding to schedule above to the first laboratory period or at the time corresponding to the last (an hour exists) at the discretion of the head of the department concerned.
All University classes will be vacated after chapel on Friday, May 24.
Ada May Morris, of Kansas City,
will spend this week-end with Frolence
Nutter, a freshman in the College.
The reason for the commencement of the examinations the latter part of next week instead of at the beginning of week after next, is because May 30 is on Friday and on that account it is impossible to get all the examinations in that week.

1912 JAYHAWKER IS A SUMPTUOUS "K" BOOK
Annual Is a Collection of Rare Photographs and Drawings
ON SALE AT "DOPE" TONIGHT
Only Six Hundred Books Left in This Edition—Carl Cannon Was Editor and Clark Wallace Manager
Bound in black leather with title design in gold, the more than five hundred pages of art work, the product of months of labor.
The 1912 Jayhawker annual which will be out tonight after the first act of the senior play, has been pronounced the most sumptuous, most carefully edited,-the best book that ever has been published at the University.
the part of the editor, Carl L. Cannon, and the business manager, Clark Wheeler, give to the student body both a University book that he will prize forever and a memory book that he will turn in to days to come, and his thoughts will be made more vivid of the "good old" times at K. U.
The arrangement of the eight departments of this book is altogether different from that of any other published. The departments in their order are: the campus, Seniors, Organizations, Fraternities, Athletics, Dramatics, Faculty and L'Alegré or I Penseroso,—the picture-magazine section.
All the departments are introduced by a picture taken from classic Greek and Roman mythology, each with its own special material that appears in its part.
An elegant appearance is given to the pages of the volume by a screen border design depicting the Universe in distance in the glooming of evening.
Upon the paper that was secured for the book, the half-tone cuts and the sixteen duo-tone pictures of campus scenes afforded the printer an opportunity to show his art and this is one of the features that will make the book popular. The pictures that were worked-up into the duo-tone plates were furnished by Louis Wilhelm. Many of the cartoons and drawings were done by Maloy, Wellhouse, and Weede. One of the most catchy sections of the magazine part was done by Weede who drew cartoons for seventy heads of campus celebrities.
In the part devoted to the Campus, pictures of the Glee Club members on their trip to the western coast illustrate the account of the journey, and photographic illustrations depict the camp life of the men of the University Company of the National Guard who went to Fort Riley last summer. The annual this year is the work of men who have planned their book from the beginning. Classification of the various items that have been submitted to the editor for their proper departments has been insisted upon. It is an immense, ideal "K" book for the student to take home.
MUSEUM EGET SPECIMEN
OF JAPANESE GIANT CRAB
Mrs. A. Henley, of Lawrence has donated a specimen of the giant sea crab of Japan to the University Museum. Mrs. Henley, who is somewhat of a naturalist herself, and has made several valuable contributions to the museum, secured the crab from her brother, Walter Coffin, of Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Coffin obtained the specimen while lately traveling in Japan.
The crab is found chiefly in the waters of Japan, and is the largest living crustacean except the giant cuttlefish. It is twelve feet in extent from the tips of its claws. The largest specimen on exhibition is in the British museum, measuring eighteen feet and the largest ever known was about twenty-two feet in extent.
The specimen will be especially valuable as an addition to the Arthropod collection of the museum. At present it is being prepared and put together by H. T. Martin of the paleontology department. Later it will be placed on exhibit on the upper floor of the museum.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 1912.
In spite of the fact that that the traditional long-haired master of music, often learned the art in an atic room with cracked bare ceilings, the modern generation of pianists, singers and artists rebel at such quarters—and righteously. Broken plaster and decrepit stirways may not interfere to a large extent with the mastery of music, but they are mighty bad advertisements for an institution like the University of Kansas.
Not another university in the West, can lay claim to a worse home for its musicians than Kansas. That reverend old building on the north brow of the hill, where the University had its inception in 1866, has long since served its term of usefulness, and should be razed or retired before it collapses upon the University's stock of pianos.
Too much has been asked of the old building, already, and for ten years it has stood, merely because there was nobody to demand in a loud voice, that it be relieved of duty.
Several years ago, "North College" found itself too small for the department of University work which it was supposed to house; and as a result, the School of Fine Arts, was robbed of its unity; split into three widely separated parts. One of these, crowded entirely off the hill, found quarters in a down town building. Such a condition as this, is deployable, and the time has come when the School of Fine Arts should be recognized as an important section of the University. It should now be tenderly gathered together again, by the Regents, and provided with an adequate campus building, where it may thrive to its fullest capacity.
STRAW HATS
A recent issue of the Scientific American enumerates ways in which to combat book pests, but one good preventive not mentioned is to keep reading the books.
Tomorrow is Straw Hat Day.
If the students do not care to make it Straw Hat Day on their own initiative, the Daily Kansan will, and take the responsibility for the movement.
Therefore all hestitating young men who have been waiting to bring the light head-gears out, but who have lacked the courage, recover

them from the bottom of the trunk where you placed them when straw hats were retired last fall and wear them anyway.
A large contingent of straw hat wearers will make individuals feel unnoticed and they will carry off the spirit of the Day successfully. This day might be declared official Straw Hat Day of the student-body of the University and a holiday declared.
The expressed relation of the faculty of the department of English to the Daily Kansan staff ought to call forth comment from the Oread Magazine.
ALUMNI MEMORIAL PORTAL The plans for the completed Administration building provide an alumni memorial portal at the main entrance. This portal will be in bronze and it will be fifteen feet wide and thirty-four feet high with a space set apart for every class.
Class re-union spirit is something that has to be made and developed at the University of Kansas, and everything that in any way will aid the secretary in bringing the members of his class together again on the campus for the first re-union should be fostered and supported. After the first re-union is held, every classman will not want to miss the day on the University campus.
To start such a tradition as the inscription of a class memorial on an alumni portal will be following one of the customs of the oldest University in the world; a Chinese university which has for centuries been carving the names of its graduates, whose number has reached into the thousands, on three tall granite pillars.
With a permanent record of every class that leaves the University, perhaps, it will be possible for senior classes to perfect organizations that will hold the members of the class together more effectively than heretofore.
Unless our ears deceive us the Engineers have a hol(ler) day every day.
Do not do anything you would be ashamed of, for you will be caught sooner or later. For reference, see the senior play.
We are mighty proud of our state and our school.

I have no idea whose fault it is that the Library Clock has no hands, but it is my opinion that there is no money to repair it. If this be the case, I should suggest than an hour hand be put on first, and a minute hand could be added later when funds become more plentiful.
Surely no fair minded would object to an hour hand. This would enable one to tell the time approximately. Surely it will not be too expensive.
Another thing, the clock would not necessarily have to run all the time. The whistle tells the hour during the day, and the electric clock could be reserved for those who infest the library after the world has been left to darkness.
THE NUMBER OF
PENNIES IN A DOLLAR
—A DIURNAL THINKER.
From Letters from a Self-made Merchant to his Son, by George H. Lorimer.
The Self-Made Merchant Tells Pierreport How He Can Best "Get Along."
You know how I began—I was started off with a kick, but that proved a kick up, and in the end every one since has lifted me a little bit higher. I got two dollars a week, and slept under the counter, and you can bet I know just how many pennies there were in each of those dollars, and how hard the floor was. That is what you have got to learn.
I remember when I was on the Lakes, our schoener was passing out through the draw at Buffalo when I saw little Bill Riggs, the butcher standing up above me on the end of the bridge with a big roast of beef in his basket. They were a little short in the galley on that trip, so I called up to Bill and he threw the ropes down to me. I asked him how much, and he yelled back, "about a dollar." That was mighty good beef And when we struck Buffalo again or the return trip I thought I would like a little more of it. So I went up to Bill's shop and asked him for a piece
Bill's shop and asked him for a piece of the same. This time he gave me a little roast, not near so big as the other, and it was pretty tough, and stringy. But when I asked him how much, he answered, "about a dollar." He simply didn't have any sense of values and that's the business man's sixth sense. Bill has always been, a big, healthy, hard working man, but today he is very, very poor.
The Bill's ain't all in the butcher business. I've got some of them right now in my office, but they will never climb over the railing that separates the clerk from the executives. Yet if they would put in half the time thinking for the house that they give up to hatching out reasons why they ought to be allowed to overdraw their salary accounts, I couldn't keep them out of our private offices with a pole axe and I wouldn't want to; for they could double their salaries and my profits in a year.
But I always lay it down as a safe proposition that the fellow who has to break open the baby's bank toward the last of the week for carfare isn't going to be any Russell Sage when it comes to treating with the old man's money. He'd pick my bank account full of holes as a hood of wild Texans would a cool stockman that they'd got in a
MAY ON OREAD
"Oh, to be in England
Now that April's there!"
So plained the Poet from a land of fire
Forgetful of the gaudy melon-bloom.
Heart-hungry for his English daffodils
And for the elm-tree's crinkled green.
—He did not know the land of my desire,
The wild bees on the lilac's purple plume,
The sun-transfigured glory of the hills,
And May on Oread, glad and sweet and clean.

FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
STOVER AT YALE
The world was made for nothing other than to produce a beautiful book.
—STEPHANE MALLARME
in "Stower at Yale," by Owen Johnson, (Frederick A. Stokes Company, New York), is told the story of a man who rebelled against going through three years of college life afraid to call his soul his own, for the sake of being chosen by a Senior Society at the close of his junior year. In this book, as well as in articles now running in "Collier's" Owen Johnson is fighting the narrowing Society System of the colleges. As is so often the case with a book that is worth while, the story is the author's own history, "Stover at Yale" is really "Johnson at Yale." The author had the same share in abolishing the old sophomore societies that he gives to his hero, "Dink Stover."
The exigencies of fiction and the demands of the public for a happy ending would not permit Mr. Johnson to make the cases exactly similar. Mr. Johnson, on account of his attacks on the Sophomore Societies at Yale, while he was chairman of the Yale "Lit," was passed over on "Tap Day." Mr. Johnson himself was quite cheerful about his defeat, but he allows his hero to win out. "Dink Stover" makes "Skull and Bones" before the eyes of his bitter enemies, his admiring friends and his everfaithful lady-love.
This unobtrusive and long-suFFERING damsel puts up with Stover's vargories, from sea-green shirts to unsought knight-errantry, and plaudibly accepts him at last, but a long patient Griela for the rest of her days.
"Stover at Yale" is a serious book, written with a purpose. This deprives it of much of the sparkle of Mr. Johnson's Lawrenceville stories, which introduced to a ready and willing public such delightful characters as "The Varmint," "The Prodigious Hickey," "The Tennessee Shad," and "The Uncooked Beefsteak."
There is no lack of fun in "Stover at Yale," but back of the fun is the realization of the seriousness of life, the knowledge that college problems are only suggestions of the greater problems in the big world beyond. "Is the society system in American colleges good or bad?" is the question asked in this book, not only because of the society system's "influence on life in the colleges, but also on the character and attainment of the men graduated into American business and professions."
Owen Johnson has a two-fold right to a position in the world of letters, first by heredity and second by attainment. He is the son of Robert Underwood Johnson, editor of the Century Magazine, and he has been a writer since the age of six, when he had his first story accepted by "St. Nicholas." Since Mr. Johnson's tenure, he written novels, dramas, short stories, and there is now a constant demand for his literary wares.
At the age of thirty-three, Owen Johnson has already accomplished marvels. What heights he may reach in another decade, no one can tell. "Stover at Yale" is a book of much promise, and the hopeful ones, always on the lookout for signs of the times, feel in their prophetic souls that the great American novel will come from the pen or typewriter of Owen Johnson.
CHINAMEN AS STUDENTS
THERE are today in some of the universities of America and Europe Chinese students who in laboratory work, in physics and other natural sciences are distinguishing themselves even in comparison with western students.
The Chinese have a power of application and patience and a capacity for detail that is destined to bring success in scientific inquiry when once they get the background, adopt the method and make the start. The irresistible progress destined to be made by western science in the Chinese empire will surely undermine Chinese faith in the "Book of Changes," which is at the base of Chinese philosophy.
Whatever is permanently true will remain in imperishable blocks, but the structure as a whole will fall in ruins, with Chinese ideals pitilessly and irrevocably shattered. At this critical period of the disintegration of outworn forces, what new moral and spiritual ideas are to replace the old in order that the new state of these people may not be worse than the first?—Dr. C. K. Edmunds in The Popular Science Monthly.

SUBMITS FORTY QUESTIONS
Says Man in French or German Scnoo Could Pass Creditable Examination on Them.
Owen Johnson declares that the college men of today have no general knowledge, let alone real culture. Most of the colleges, he asserts, have become mere social clearing houses, whose students know only a few facts hastily crammed for examinations and promptly forgotten.
In his new novel, "Stover at Yale," which takes up the whole subject of American colleges, Johnson makes a character propose a list of forty general questions to a bunch of classmates. But as the story is laid in 1900, the test is not hard enough for today, says Johnson, though most of his readers admit that they cannot answer the questions in "Stover." Johnson has acquired a new list, with the help of every college student or graduate ought to be able to answer. Any man in a French or German university could pass a creditable examination on them. How many American collegians can, he asks.

Many studen- tured that the little emergency box for the treatment of burns, cuts and wounds."
The box contains as eye dropper and cup, a salve for the treatment of cuts, wounds and aid burns, a boracic acid solution for cases with acid alkaline in the eye, a borax solution which neutralizes acids irritating to the eyes, olive oil which acts as a lubricant, a small bottle of aromatic acid for cases of fainting, caron oil for burns and many bandages.
In addition to the various solutions and salve the box contains a small pamphlet giving first aid directions for emergency cases, such as for the treatment of burns, cuts and wounds, for the care of the eyes when irritated by acids and directions for ordinary poisoning and irritating cases.

It is hard to tell where the carriage began. Professor Thorpe got a hit in the first inning. Hit, said we?
It was a glorious, mellifluous swat, and when the panting fielders had been flying globes, the professor spermated contentedly on the antepenult.
He defied the anti-pass law and flitted to the third circle. Just as he was about to render John Howard a sentence, his lawyer, the writer, post up, cravenly fanned.

Attention, Students!
Guy Pennock, the liner tamer, started the game on third but was transferred to left field by Captain Thorpe who, assisted by his colleague, took very good care of the tertiary epoch.
Dad Westfall, pressman, later in the game matriculated on a fat swat, and in the course of a few base hits, took his degree also.
When the last hop had been commuted, the sons of Brady, who had quite consistently been the hoppees, were, gamely it must be admitted, holding onto the thin end of a 12 to 3 quod erat.

KANSAS ALWAYS IN THE LEAD
In Spite of a Patched up Team the

Walker Pitched Good Ball
Sherwin's Kansas Crippeis won the first battle of the Missouri baseball invasion yesterday when they defeated William Jewell College at Liberty, Missouri. The score was 6 to 4.
very much patched appearance. Captain Hicks did not accompany the team because of his injury, "Bunny" Wilson filled his place at first, while Deichman chased flies in the left garden. Ogden was also absent from the line up because of a split hand. Binkleman caught for the hopes and Dinkley filled his place in the field.
From the scoring of the first run in the opening act till the last man was out Kansas never loosened her hold on the game. In the sixth inning the Jewells threatened to become dangerous, but were promptly squelched.
Kansas led off with a score in the first and held the one run lead till the fifth when they chased four more tallys across. It was in this particular session that the Jewells saw fit to surrender their chances to decorate the win column. Three hits were coupled with an equal number of bone heads by the locals and Kansas romped away.
After the Jewels had made four runs the Kansans decided to make the thing sure and added one in the ninth.
The Liberty team collected three uns in the seventh by making their first hits and taking advantage f a Kansas bobble.

BATTING AVERAGE OF COLLEGIATES LOW
Weakest Point in College Base Ball Is in Swinging the Stick
Pitching is the strong point and batting the weak point in college baseball, according to O. F. Field, in charge of the baseball squad at the University of Missouri. That pitching is the strong point is probably due, partly at least, to the fact that batting is the weak point. Witness the fact that probably not more than one out of three college pitchers that try out on professional teams make good.
"Men that come out for college baseball have neglected batting all their life," said Mr. Field. "They receive their training in the field, catching the ball, while some one man did all the batting.
"In college baseball," continued Mr. Field, "the problem is to take a few available men and from them make a team." There's little picking about it. As a rule but few men are in these teams, so these men take to their places as a duck does to water. There is but little shifting of men."
A great deal is made of insid
baseball in professional playing.
Mr. Field says that not much can be
made of it in College playing.
Signals are little used. The men are not
together long enough.
College teams meet each other only two or three times a season. For this reason a pitcher can never know the batter that he must throw to. Each man that stands before him is a stranger. This is another disadvantage that college coaches have to meet.
Baseball more than any other sport offers great opportunities for individual starring. Each man is a distinctive part of the game. Every play that comes his way is an opportunity to star. He, and he alone, makes the play.
Mr. Field lays a good deal of stress on individual work and the willingness of the player to take chances. Some men who show up well in practice, who take chances and make mistakes, and who take the 'test' comes in, the actual game.
Mr. Field offers some advice to men who would make the college team. "Learn to bat," he said. "Learn the game thoroughly, of
"A man must show a great deal of individuality," said Mr. Field. "Men that are timid and afraid will never make baseball players. Chances must be taken. Men must be nery and cool-headed, too."

SPARKS FLY SATURDAY Kansas High School Record Breakers to Clash With Missouri Athletes
The indications are for a general smash up of the state inter-scholastic records when the high school stars clash with the other athletes to be present at the Invitation Meet next Saturday. It is expected that at least one hundred men will be on McCook Field in track suits that day.
The majority of the record breakers of the state meet, to whom invitations have been extended, will be present and all are reported to be able to do even better than they did in the state meet. It is almost impossible to pick the winner of the meet, as so many dark horses will be present. Doping it out from past performances, however, it looks like either Lawrence or Central high school will come out victorious. Central, it will be remembered, defeated Lawrence by a ten point margin in the dual meet, but this lead will probably be overcome by the close competition in the weight events.
McDonald and Hutwig, winners of the state meet, are doped to make J. Reber, Central's strong man, heave his law. Lawrence is expected to be especially strong in the half mile, mile, broad jump, and possibly the quarter.
The rewards for this meet will be the same as for the state meet.. Gold, silver and bronze cups will be awarded to those breaking records and to the highest individual point winners.

"DOPE" INTRODUCES REAL COLLEGE LIFE
Ice Cream Wagon and Mc Cook Field Were Successful Features
WILL GIVE IT AGAIN TONIGHT
Numerous Local Hits Introduced-
Secret of Third Act is Feature of Local Coloring.
A college atmosphere was introduced upon the stage at the senior play, "Dope," that was given for the first time in Bowersock's theater last night. The setting of the play was entirely local and the features that were developed are familiar to all the students on the "hill."
The Ice Cream wagon, the fence at McCook field, and "Red" Lupton, the mascot of the football team, were the cachet features of the play.
The play told the story of a star football player who was doped before a big game. He lost the game for the home team and immediately disappeared from the college circle. A year later he was found playing in a company putting on "Crossing the Divide." He came to his old college town and could not resist the temptation to play before the college audience. His old friends recognized him and made him return to the University circle.
The construction of the first and second acts is good for an amateur production. The proverbial college bill collector was ever present bothering the college chaps for money when their pockets were empty. The local hits were worked into the lines of the play well.
However, at the beginning of the third act, the audience is thrown entirely into the dark concerning the status of the play. They are confused and not until fourteen minutes after the curtain goes up, does a ny intelligence of the relation of the third act of the senior play. "Dope" dawn upon the unsuspecting audience, when from among their own number, the players in the former senior play spring upon the stage over the foot lights to stop the show and claim for their number one of the players in the company putting on "Crossing the Divide." Many critics pronounce "Dope" the best senior play in the past three or four years. For local color and spirit in acting, the play was well presented. Many errors were made in the construction of the plot, but the college actors playing to a college audience and in presenting many of the interesting things that have happened on the campus in the past year held their auditions attention closely.
The Weather.
"No excuse for not attending the senior play tonight," choreased the meter twins Thermo and Baro in their prediction of fair and warmer for tonight and tomorrow.

LAWS TRY HAMLET
Famous Shakespearean Charact er Will Face Prosecutors This Afternoon
After many years, indicative of the delay of justice, Hamlet will be tried for the murder of Polonius. The case comes up before Judge Higgins of the senior practice court, today at half past one.
The attorneys for the state are C. B. Harrold and B. L. Shim; those for the defense, Ben Jones and Burton Sears.
The first information for the indictment of Hamlet was thrown out because of a technicality, but the second information was sustained and the life of Hamlet now hangs in the balance of justice.
The witnesses, sixteen of them, have been subpoenaed after a great amount of quibbling and confusion. Several of the witnesses were refused on account of their knowledge of the crime. Many objections, to the evidence produced, is expected because so much of it is merely
hearsay.

THE JAYHAWKER
Every student who has looked at the 1912 Jayhawker since it came-out at the senior play last night, and who has not already made himself the owner of one, has unfailingly declared that one copy would become his before the edition sold out. From present prospects, though, all must hurry or some one is going to be turned away.
The annual this year is a University book that anyone ought to make a sacrifice to obtain. Nowhere else can such pictures, such a collection of drawings and photographs be found and the inimitable style in which the volume has been produced makes it the most attractive thing that has ever represented the University.
The esprit de corps among the members of the annual board, and the co-operation between the business manager and the editor of the book account for its unqualified success this year. The two leaders of the staff were men experienced in the publishing business, who had ideas about the making of a good publication and who worked together in developing and in incorporating their ideas in their final effort.
Mr. Cannon, the editor, is an ex-experienced newspaper man having served on Oklahoma and Detroit papers. He also spent one year as managing editor of the Kansan. Mr.Wallace gained his initial training as business manager of the tri-weekly Kansan and the Daily Kansan.
Perhaps the attitude of the students toward the annual may well be expressed in the words of several of the members of former Jayhawk staff—"It is an honor to be in any way connected with a book like that."
The book that these two men published this spring shows the results of carefully planned work along lines conducive to the best interests of the University.
With the approach of examination week, "The Emergency Box," the faithful friend of the student, will be in need not alone in the Chemistry building. Perhaps individual emergency boxes would help some of the students in their last moments.
No errors were recorded in the baseball game played by the newspaper men the other afternoon and some people think that very likely this was due to the fact that the proof reader in the Daily Kansan office was the cooler keeper.
One of the pseudo-characteristics of the college man that was featured in the senior play last night was his inability to "pay up" sundry bills that he had been pleased to contract during the semester. Perhaps some of the students think too that their boarding-house keeps have a characteristic that is easily comparable to their's—an annual custom to become stringent on the quality and quantity of their table board during the last two weeks of school.

Owen Johnson seems to have encountered trouble in finding a college student who is able to answer his list of catch questions "right off the bat." The trouble is that the ordinary student today has specialized too early in his college course, and is unable to answer questions in more than one or two of the departments touched in Johnsons questionaire. Students of music could easily answer all he asks about the Wagnerian theory of opera and many other things too, but their specialized work has not given them general cultural information in all the departments into which Johnson delves. Indeed, a rough guess would say that few professors on the "hill" could make a comprehensive reply to all of his queries.
SAVE TIME—QUIT SMOKING
SAVE TIME-QUIT SMOKING
The professor of civil engineering in Harvard said to me the other day: "The best advice I can give to my graduates in engineering is this, let it be some other fellow."
"In other words, is somebody must go through life carrying a handicap, let it be some other fellow.
The professor went on to say that he did not consider the matter primarily from the point of view of hygiene or of good example, but from that of saving of time. The man who succeeds is the man who knows how to use time. Life is a bit short at the best, and it seems much shorter when you get on into the middle of it. Its effectiveness is measured in part by its length. Its length is measured not by years, but by that part of it which we use. We use only that part we spend in sleep, in training, in play, in effective help-fulness.
Smoking does not come under any of these heads.
Smoking is our disguise for idleness, "When a man smokes," says the professor I have quoted, "he does not realize that he is idle. He is putting in the time, the time that he might otherwise use in some one of the normal purposes of life. Daudet tells us of certain clubmen who meet and think not, neither do they speak—just smoke."
One lesson of the college life is the value of training rules. If a man is to do his part in a game or a meet he must have every nerve free from prejudice. The effect of tobacco is to trick the nerves. It is a nerve irritant, and wears the disguise of a narcotic. But a narcotic is likewise dangerous. We ought not to be sleepy when awake. We have the right to sleep when we have earned trust in our abilities which demands nerve rest. To break the training rules is to lose the game, when the game demands accuracy of sensation and motion, absolute truthfulness of nerve response.
But the essential purpose of going to college is to prepare one's self for the higher games, for the fine play in the noblest and most difficult of all meets, the fine art of living. In this game one has need of all mental subley, of all virile reserves. Every day the test is closer than in any athletic game. Every day more depends on one's being in perfect trim. Every man sooner or later, at some time in his life, is brought under training rules. If he is not he is forced out of the business. Most usually these come too late. Every enforced lie of the nervous system makes it harder for it to tell the truth afterward. Every strain in accuracy of nerve response makes the mind baffy—David Starr Jordan, LL. D., President Leland Stanford, Jr., University.
Motion pictures of the recent Stanford-California track and field meet, ball games and crew races, are being shown at one of the nickel theaters in Palo Alto under the auspices of the Senior class.
Arrangements have been made between Harvard and Brown whereby engineering students at Brown may attend the Harvard summer engineering camp without extra fee.
In a bulletin issued by the University of Wisconsin, John Collier, of the national board of moving picture censorship, says that schools and social centers ought to make use of moving pictures as educational factors.
Statistics compiled at the University of Cincinnati show that 75% of the students come from families whose income is less than $2,500 and 35% come from families whose income is less than $1,500 a year. 19% of the students are fatherless and are being sent to the University by their widowed mothers. It is proved also that 40% of the families having sons or daughters in the University live in rented houses and 60% own their own homes.

Now I know you will say that I don't understand how it is; that you've got to do as the other fellows do; and that things have changed since I was a boy. There's nothing in it. Adam invented all the different ways in which a young man can make a fool of himself, and a college yell at the end of them is just a frill that doesn't change essentials. The boy who does anything just because the other fellows do it is apt to scratch a poor man's back all his life. He's the chap that's buying wheat at seven cents a day before market prices rise, or he "the country," in the market reports, but the city is full of him. It's the fellow who has the spunk to think and act for himself, and sells short when prices hit the high Sea and the house is standing on its hind legs yelling for more, that sits in the directors' meetings when he gets on toward forty.
It stated that the membership of the club had reached a working basis, and that active steps were about to be started looking to a reduction of the dog population of the city. It also demanded extreme measures, and would give the city council another chance to pass adequate dog laws.
We got an old steer out at the packing house that stands around at the foot of the run way leading up to the killing pen, looking for all the world like one of the village sisters sitting on a cracker box before the grocery—sort of sad-eyed, dreamy old cuss—always has two or three straws from his cud sticking out of the corner of his mouth. By and by the boys drive a bunch of steers toward him, or cows may, if we can reenang, and then you'll see Old Abe move off up the run way, sort of beckoning the bunch after him with that wicked old stump of a tail of his, as if there was something mighty interesting to steers at the top, and something that every Texan, and Colorado raw from the prairie, ought to have a look at to put a metropolitan finish on him. Those steers just naturally follow along on up that runway and into the killing pen. But just as they get to the pen, Old Abe, someway, gets lost in the crowd and he isn't among those present when the gates are closed and the real trouble begins for his new friends.

Prof. J. H. Canfield, formerly professor of political economy at the University and later president of the University of Nebraska, conceived a strong antipathy for dogs when he was living in Lawrence. The city at that time had a very large canteen pests and the professors employed "power of the press" to be rid of them.
He induced his friend, the editor of a local paper to print the following news item:
"Citizens owning no dogs, who are tired of the deprections of their neighbor's pets (or pests), and who are willing to take the law into their own hands—since the city council neglects or refuses to act, will meet this evening to perfect an organization which it is hoped will afford much needed equipment. They must be both strength and protection. For very good reasons the place and hour of the meeting are known only to those who are to be present."
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
harbored no animals, and their indignation grew with every disavowal of complicity in the plat. When the dog tax law failed in the council, a call to action appeared in the paper that was printing the news of the dog controversy.
Books are not seldom talismans and spells.
—W. COWPER.
"The council offers no relief, members of the anti-dog club who have been assigned to active duty will therefore go to their appointed places at the hours named and carefully follow instructions. Remember that those on duty on odd streets move north and those on even streets move south. Midnight is the first hour, 3 a.m. the last. Shoot to kill but not on premises for pets or children. Guard against all possible injury to persons or property, other than dogs. Report results in detail, to the secretary as you meet him tomorrow."
This is it.
Many dogs were executed that night, and at a subsequent council meeting the question of a dog-tax was again raised. The answer was by the owners, killed the ordinance.
The slaughter notice of the day before was there upon duplicated, and many more of the canine population met death.
Public sentiment, both pro and con-
dog was now thoroughly aroused.
Letters to the papers poured in, and
the council meeting was anxiously
watched.
when the council did meet it took but ten minutes to pass a "five and dollar" tax, as had been demanded by the mysterious Anti-Dog Club.
One more story appeared in the newspaper that had published the previous notices, all written by Professor Canfield and their authorship known only to him and the editor.
"At a meeting last night held after the council adjourned, the Anti-Dog Club was formally dissolved. There was much good feeling and mutual congratulations over the results of the campaign."
Here it is.
STRANGE NEW MEXICAN
SPRING
One of the most remarkable springs in the world exists in New Mexico. It is saturated with sodium sulphate. Distilled water weighs eight and one third pounds per gal; the water of this spring weighs three hundred pounds. The temperature of the spring is a little over 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
THE OLD FAMILIAR FACES
As the saturated liquid overfills and cools it forms a crystalline mass which in the course of ages, has spread into a white bed of solid sodium salts, miles in extent and as level as a lake. The warm brine, it is reported, is inhibited by a shrimp oil and its pH is about 8. It is found growing in the dry expanse of sodium sulphate—Harpers Weekly.
I have been laughing, I have been carousing.
I have had playmates, I have had companions.
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.
In my days of childhood, in my joyful school-days;
Drinking late, sitting late, with my bosom cronies;
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.
Closed are her doors on me, I must not see her,—
I loved a Love once, fairest among women;
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.
Earth seemed a desert I was bound to traverse.
I have a friend, a kinder friend has no man.
Ghost-like I paced round the haunts of my childhood.
Left him, to muse on the old familiar faces.
Seeking to find the old familiar races.
Friend of my boson, thou more than a brother,
Why wert not thou born in my father's dwelling?
So might we talk of the old familiar faces.
How some they have died, and some they have left me,
And some are taken from me, all are departed:
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.
—Charles Lamb.

ANALYSTS ASKED TO DO ODD JOBS GRATIS
People Over the State Send in Divers and Various Stuffs
THEY WANT EXPERT WORK FREE
But The Department Cannot Neglect The Duties Which it Was Founded
to do.
The life of the water analyst is not always an easy one. In the past nine or ten months, the water analysis department has received many samples of substances, entirely out of the scope of the department. These various substances were accompanied by requests that they be carefully analyzed.
One woman sent a piece of cloth, pink silk, with a bottle of shoe blacking. She had spilled some of the blackening on her pink silk dress and wanted to know how to remove the stain. Not long after this case a man mailed two small vials of linedseal oil to the department. He wanted to find out whether the oil was raw or boiled. A few days before, several of his hogs had died and if he could prove the oil to be boiled, he would bring suit against a certain man, whom he had accused of feeding the oil to his hogs.
All things are not so serious, however. The odd samples are numerous. Fish bait, disinfectants, samples of volcanic ash, twenty-five of them from different states, and shales, from Tennessee, Texas, and Kansas have been received in quantities.
Then come the sands, black, glass and salt. Following there are the rocks, lime-stone, gypsite, etc. The department was expected to give a complete analysis of each of the samples and to do it free of charge.
Another person sent a sample of oil with the request that a means of dissolving the oil from engine cylinders be found and mail the same to him. Boiler compounds, twelve of them, were shipped to the department where the company wanted to find the composition in order that they might make their own.
So it goes through the whole year, and 99% of the people sending the samples want the analysis to be done free of charge. If the department dropped these odd articles in for analysis, the state would suffer greatly.

MEN OF FRESHMEN CLASS RUN NORMAL
Physical Examinations Show Lack of Football Material in 1915 Class
If the University of Kansas should depend on the present freshman class for football material, a shortage would be found in this line of sport. Accorded with that, there are only thirty men who could be termed as of football build.
The prevailing type this year is the tall, fairly well developed man who delights the eye of the track or basketball coach, but who is a trifle light for football. If build counts for anything, there is certainly an inexhaustible supply of track and basket-ball men from this class.
The chests this year were larger and better developed but were less flexible. The general average of the men also showed smaller waists than usual.
Over 300 men were examined from the freshman class and it was found that the average height was 5 feet, 8.4 inches, about .2 inches above the normal. As to weight, it was found that the men only averaged about 135 pounds. This is a trifle below the normal. However, fewer extremes were found this year, that is, fewer men who are underdeveloped or over developed.
As an explanation for this difference in build from that of the freshmann of preceding years, the explanation is offered that it is due to the different lines of athletic activities which are now staged by the various high schools of the state. At present very few of the high schools are represented on the gridiron and are confining themselves to track and basket ball. This accounts for the increased supply in those lines of athletics and also the shortage of foot ball material. If the high schools over the state continue to put the ban on this line of sport, it looks like a continuance in the shortage of men to represent the school in foot ball.

Margaret Illington has gone to the tenements for an emotional role that is magnificently suited to her. She plays the wife of a stewardess in Charles Kenyon's drama, "Kindling," who sees motherhood ahead of her and little to provide for the baby. When she gets married, she be clothed, and then steals more that she and her husband may get away from the tenement life before the baby comes. It is in the scenes of the exposure and the husband's misunderstanding that the acting values of the play are splendidly brought out. Miss Illington will be the attraction at the Bowersock

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VICTORIOUS JAYHAWKS CUTTING WIDE SWATHS
Sherwin's Men Lined out an 8 to 2 Victory at Marshall Yesterday
TWO HOMERS KILLED IN EIGHTH
Ammons and Busick Both Connec With Minr's Deliveries and Go For Four Plates.
Notwithstanding the fact that Sherwin's nine is in a badly crippled condition their victorious course continues over the state of Missouri and yesterday took the second game of the invasion at Missouri Valley College by a score of 8 to 2.
The line-up was the same as in Tuesday's game with the Prechers at Liberty, with the exception that McCarty pitched in place of Walker. Ogden's hand is still in too bad a condition for him to do any work behind the bat and Binkleman held down that position again yesterday. The game was not without features and both Ammons and Busick boosted their batting averages by lining out home runs.
In the first three stages of the mix-up neither team was able to get a representative around the sacks, though the Jayhawker nine put up much the better game from the start. However the fourth opened with the batting eye of the Kansas hopes looking steadily as the team neared being given them, two men had succeeded in making the round trip to home plate.
It was not due to the lack of hitting on the part of the Jayhawker aggregation that scores were not run in before this inning. In fact that was the best thing the Sherwin stand-bys did in their little argument yesterday. The succeeded in bunching twelve of the fatal counts on the Marshall team in comparison to the seven off of McCarty. Kansas fumbled once too often, and had the majority of errors counted up to their credit.
The Missouri Valley slabsters were not able to cash a hit for four sacks off the pellet until the last of the seventh. At this time they thought that they had found their hitting eye and succeeded in running in another score during the eight. But they stopped at this and were not allowed another opportunity during the remainder of the game.
One would have thought that the Kansas batmen were trying out for the Olympic marathon to watch their side of the score sheet while the first of eight scene was progressing. Five men got safely around the sacks and two of them without being called to a halt. For it was in this act that Ammons and Busiek both got frisky and decided to show the Missouri lads what a good long hooks looks like. And they did it by knocking two homers. Both teams were held scoreless in the ninth.
The score by innings:
Kansas. ... 0 1 0 2 0 1 0 5 0-8 12 3
Mo. Valley. 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0-2 7 2
Batteries-- Kansas, Mc. Carty and
Binkleman; Missouri Valley, Minor
and Rowlin.
Walker is being saved for the Missouri scraps next Friday and Saturday and McCarty will probably pitch again on the game against West-minister.

BAR SIDE LINE COACHING
Yale Weekly Suggests Maximilien For The Team's Trainer
Side-line coaching on the baseball field has been abolished at Yale, except that the catcher and captain of the team will be permitted to perform their usual combined stunts of contortionism and forensic oratory on the side lines near first and third bases.
The Yale Alumni Weekly suggests that it will be necessary to muzzle the coach with a Maxim silencer and put him in the press box where he could not be heard for the rattle of
The publication argues that when a coach sees his team disregarding his careful instructions, he is bound to give vent to his feelings, which, if he was on the bench near the side line, would be very improper under the new ruling.

JUDGE MACCHESNEY SPEAKS IN CHAPEL
NUMBER 84
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 17, 1912.
Talk Deals With Constitutionality of Measures Passed by the Legislature
JUDICIAL RECALL ADVOCATED
Says That Recall is Entirely Consistent With The Opinion of The American of Democracy.
Judge Nathan William MacChesney, of Chicago, spoke in chapel this morning on "The World System versus America's Distinctive Contribution; Re-examination by the American People."
His theme dealt mostly with the constitutionality of measures passed by the legislature and on the recall of judges.
Judge MacChesney said that our forefathers divided the governmental powers into the executive, legislative and judicial, but that the judicial by some means has tried to take upon itself the legislative.
"The right to declare laws passes by the legislature unconstitutional does not exist under the constitution," he said. "It has been usurped by the court itself. In none of the foreign countries can the courts pass on the acts of the assent of the majority." The city is one of the great defects of our governmental system that the powers of the judiciary are not limited along this line.
A JUDGE WITHOUT POLICIES
"The judicial recall is well within reason as to the moral and constitutional right. It will have to be admitted that there is a vast difference between the executive and judiciary. A judge does not exercise his own personality in the cases that are brought before him, he is bound by the law. An executive may use his own judgment. A judge is not supposed to have any policies of his own.
"I believe in the recall of judges by the amendment of the constitution so as not to violate the fourteenth amendment which contains the clause in regard to life, liberty and property. It is an uncharistic dangerous features but it is not an archaic. It is entirely consistent with our opinion of democracy."
WORKS FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD
Colonel MacChessmey is Judge Advocate of Illinois. He has been especially active in promoting the organization of the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology of which he has been president for the past year, and is recognized by the lawyer's association of the Bar Association on one of the leaders in the movement to secure improvement in all matters affecting the public good.
Otto Dixon of Mound Valley, a sophomore in the College, was pledged Alpha Sigma yesterday. Alpha Sigma is the pledge society of Nu Sigma Nu which takes in only students of the med school after they have had two years in the College.

SUSIE IS KNOWN
Psychology Pups' Fame Has Spread Across the Atlantic to Europe
It has just been found that the influence of the University Daily Kansas, has not only spread over the United States, but has even penetrated into Europe.
Last week, Prof. E. F. Engel, received a newspaper article, from a friend of his, clipped from the "Frankfurter General-Anzeiger," of April, 23, 1912. The article read as follows, under the head of "An Apriliflook Joke."
"What newspapers on the other side of the great pond, sometimes venture to offer their readers, is shown by a notice which has appeared, from a New York paper in the London Standard. From that report, the University of Kansas is said to have regularly enrolled three dogs which together with a maltese cat and a young bull-dog, have been given over to the special tutelage of Prof. F. C. Dockery.
The practical instruction is to reveal how far the limits of perception and mentality of smaller animals extend. In the report, is reported seriously, 'we will extend the experiment through several weeks', explained Professor Dockery, 'and hope thereby to establish, finally, whether an enlargement of our powers of thought and discrimination to make an enlargement and development of their intellectual possibilities, possible.'

FOR TRAINING OF HEALTH OFFICERS
Three Noted Specialists Will Lecture in the Summer Session
COURSE IS FREE TO KANSANS
Dr. Crumbine Emphasizes, Need o Training Along Lines of Sanitary Procedure
Three specialists of national reputation will deliver lectures and perform laboratory experiments at the second annual summer school for physicians and health officers at the University, June 10 to 15 inclusive. They are Surgeons Allen J. McLaughlin and W. Forrest K. Fowler, both from Marine Hospital service, and Dr. Thos. R, Crowder, Sanitarian of the Pullman Co., Chicago.
Dr. McLaughlin is an authority on water-borne diseases, including typhoid, cholera, and dysentery; Dr. Frost on spinal meningitis, and Dr. Crowder on ventilation and public sanitation. Accompanying their lectures will be demonstration of the use of injection by various men of the University of Kansas School of Medicine.
"Efficient health officers must be trained men along the modern lines of sanitary procedure," said Dr. Crumbine, dean of the School of Medicine. "A most skillful physician and surgeon may make a mighty poor health officer. The business of sanitarian is a profession in itself, and high efficiency in its operation will be expected unless we have men specially trained in public health matters."
The course is open to all health officers and physicians and medical students in the state of Kansas and is free.
Four other leading universities have taken up summer training for health officers since the University of Kansas announced this work two years ago.

If he does not pass the quiz he will have to take the years work over. However a man cannot take the quiz instead of taking the work. The usual time will have to be put in in the gym class.

PROFESSOR JOHNSON REMEMBERS JOHNSON
University Man Was Class mate of the Author of "Stover at Yale"
Prof. W. A. Johnson of the department of English at the University, was a classmate of Owen Johnson, author of "Stover at Yale," and has many interesting stories concerning their college life.
Even while in college, Owen John son was unpopular and had enemies o account of his war on sophomore soci and the general social system a Yale.
According to Professor Johnson,
Owen Johnson was what we here in
Kansas would call a "queen" and
spread of his time in the company
As Professor Johnson remembers him, the author of "Stover" was not much of a student. "I doubt very much whether Owen when a student could have asked the questions propounded in "Stover at Yale," much less answer them, remarked Professor Johnson, drily.
Kenith Dodderidge, of the Wichita high school, is visiting at the Alpha Tau house. He is here to attend the invitation meet tomorrow.
Many of the characters in "Stover at Yale" were personal friends of Professor Johnson and he had a part in many of the incidents described.

FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1912.
Good Morning! Have you founded a sorority?
THE CLOG OF ALLOWANCE That the poor man who works his way through the University, never knowing where the next meal is coming from is entitled to a great deal of praise, has been the opinion of orators and popular lecturers ever since the colleges have been educating.
And they have not been diffident about advancing their opinions. Nor have their opinions been wholly in the wrong. Only there has been neglected the type of students, son of rich parents, who comes to the University with his every want provided for, his every whim gratified and who then makes good. Of course he is the rarer specimen, but that only proves his finer worth.
The poor self dependent student has to make good. He has the greatest stimulants of Hunger and Want to make him work, and in obeying them he learns the lessons of application and persistence. He cannot fall, because he is in the hands of Nature and Nature will always provide for her children.
Therefore we should not fail to give due credit, and we should not look on it as a matter of course when a man succeeds in his college course, although burdened with a comfortable allowance.
But that child of Wealth cut off from the ministrations of Nature and her efficient forces for the development of character, is a strong man and a fighter if he survives.
TO THE LAWYERS
Standing as it does, in the keystone position among Kansas lawyers, the School of Law is the fitting host of the Institute. The faculty of the School has taken a prominent part in the activities of the Institute, and its work can be aided, to a considerable extent by co-operation with the University.
The University welcomes the lawyers and criminologists of the state. The annual session of the Kansas Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology is being held in Green hall this afternoon and the convention closes with a banquet at the Eldridge house tomorrow noon.
Co-operation in every state activity, has always been the policy of the University, and the meeting of the Institute offers an excellent opportunity for the University to be of more real service. The Institute will find, in the University of Kansas, a willing assistant, in the important work of suggested revision for the criminal law code of the State.
The Laws are trying Hamlet for the murder of Polonius. The next case on the docket is presumably that of the state versus Brutus, Cassius, Casca, et al.
After making a series of meals off the little Tiger cubs all over Missouri during the past week, the appetite of Sherwin's men is in fine shape to tackle the big Tiger himself at Columbia this afternoon.
SPEAK A GOOD WORD FOR OLD
now is the time when trains from all over Kansas are bearing to the big city, throngs of wide-eyed shy and diffident boys and girls still wearing their high school pins and who are just entering upon the ocean of their Experience. Perhaps they are going to visit relatives, as a reward for graduation, and will return home when the corn is ready to plow. Perhaps they have secured work and will enter on a life of useful labor. Perhaps the big city will swallow them up, and they will never again see the green hedges of the old home.
Some of them, of course, look for ward to a continuance of their education at a higher institution of learning, possibly at this University. Their opinions of a college will be largely influenced by the students and graduates of that college that they chance to meet, now, when they are resolved to go to college, but cannot decide just where.
You will meet the high school graduate during your vacation this summer, at home in the small town, at apprentice work in the city, or on his summer vacation. You will be asked first, if your college education has benefitted you. This should be easy to answer.
You will be asked then how you came to choose the best University in the West as your Alma Mater. And if you are a loyal son of Kansas University, that high school graduate the very first chance he gets, will sit right down and write to Registrar Foster.
BETWEEN SOUP AND PIE Stude (After trying to season his omatoes)—Do you know, this salt hocks me.
Co-ed (sitting next)—Why! !!
Stude—Its' so coarse.
Headline from a College daily paper, "Faculty Prepares a Final Torture." No doubt the faculty intended quiz week to be a season of real profit and satisfactory to the students of the University, and a torture only to the poor instructors who must needsrade the papers.
The fact that the 1912 "Jayhawk-er" is the best ever published gives grounds for the belief that possibly the entire edition will be sold out. And when it is, there will be the usual number of people vexed with themselves because they didn't "do their Annual shopping early."
Since the Board of Regents have been forced to put the ban on cigarette smoking on the campus, the students in the School of Law will encounter difficulty in finding a substitute antidote for the aroma coming from the basement of the Museum where the saw-bones hold forth. Cigarettes are evil-smelling things to some people anyway.

“What do I want now?” As if you didn’t know! ‘Im sure, if I’d any money of my own, I’d never ask you’ It’s painful to me, greedy knowledge!
If there's anything in the world I hate—and you know it—it is asking you for money. I am sure, for myself, I'd rather go without a thing a thousand times—and I do, the more shame for you to let me!
By Douglas William Jerrold
MRS. CAUDLE URGING THE NEEDOF SPRING CLOTHING
What do you say? "If it's painful, why so often do it?" I suppose you call that a joke—one of your club-
jokes. As I say, I only wish Pd any money of my own. If there is any woman, the man woman, it is coming to a man's pocket for every farthing. It 's dreadful!
Now, Caule, you hear me, for it isn't often I speak. Pray, do you know what name it looks like? And did you watch it look like today? —like nobody else's children!
"What was the matter with them?" Oh, Caudle! how can you ask? Weren't they all in their thick merinoes and beaver bonnets?
"You didn't see it?" The more shame for you! I'm sure those Briggs girls—the little minxes! put me into such a pucker, I could have pulled their ears for 'em over the pew.
What do you say? "What of it?" What! You tell me that you didn't see how the Briggs girls in their new chips turned their noses up at em" And you didn't see how the Browns looked at the Smiths, and then at our creatures as much as to say, "Poor creatures!" what figures for the first of May!"
What do you say? "I ought to be ashamed to own it?" Now, Cawle, it's no use talking; those children shall not cross over the threshold next Sunday, if they haven't things for the summer. Now mind—they sha'nt; and there's an end of it!
Now, Caudle, dear! What a man you are! I know you will give me the money, because, after all, I think you love your children, and like to see 'em well-dressed. It's only natural that a father should.
"I'm always wanting for clothes?" How can you say that? I'm sure there are no children in the world that cost their father so little; but that's it—the less a poor woman does upon, the less she may.
"How much money do I want?"
Let me see, love. There's Caroline,
and Jane, and Susan, and Mary Anne,

GAVE FIRST SENIOR
GAVE FIRST SENIOR
PLAY 20 YEARS AGO
Class of 1892 Staged "Julius Caesar, Esq."—Only Men in the Cast at That Time.
Class of 1892 Staged "Julius Cae-
The senior play last night brought to the minds of many old University graduates the production of the first Play ever given at the University.
"Julius Cesar, Esq." staged by the class of 1982 in the old Bowersock opera house was a burlesque on Shakespeares play and probably instroduced as many local hits as were given in "Done" last night.
The two women's parts were taken by R. D. Brown, who is a lawyer in Kansas City, and Eugene Caldwell, his X-ray expert in a hospital in New York City.
Governor Herbert Spencer Hallay, of Missouri, played the part of Brutus in this play, and his acting was one of the features of the evening. Professor E. F. Engle, now of the department of German of the University, Walter Truitt of Chanute, and Professor J. H. Sawtell, principal of the high school at Iola played the other men's parts.
A feature that was probably unique, was the Senior Breakfast given at the Eldridge House, to which the proceeds of the play were devoted, and to which all members of the faculty were invited.
One of the features of the play was the introduction of Dr. Snow's "chinch-bug infection." After one of the battles, when the field was strewed with dead and wounded, a nurse appeared in front and chinch-bug infection" and sprinkled it on the men. They immediately revived and the play went on.
SO THEY ARE.
Students at Wellesley have decided to cut out slang. They say it gets them in bad with people who are not hep to it—Dod Gaston in Topeka cap.
The juniors were the guests of the seniors that night; the sophomores were the "mob" and "supes" in the audience. Did they get any if they had the price of admission.
SO THE PEOPLE MAY KNOW
"How much?" Now don't be in a hurry! Well, I think, with a good pinching—and you know, Caule, there's never a wife who can pinch closer than I can—I think, with pinching, I can do with twenty pounds.
Well, how much money will it take? Let me see—I'll tell you in a minute. You always love to see the dear things look like new pins. I know that, Caudle; and though I say it—bless their little hearts!—they do credit to you. Caudle.
What do you say? "I needn't count em! You know how many there are!" That's just the way you take me up!
What! "You won't give half the money!" Very well, Mr. Caule; I don't care. Let the children go in rags; let them stop from church, and grow up like heathens and cannibals; and put their ear money, and, I suppose, be satisfied.
What did you say? "Twenty fiddle-sticks?"
What do you say? "Ten pounds enough?" Yes, just like you men; you think things cost nothing for women and I know how much you lay out upon yourself.
"They only want frecks and bonnets?" How do you know what they want? How should a man know anything at all about it? And you may go shopping with it yourself, and see what you'll make of it! I'll have none
of your ten pounds, I can tell you— no sir!
No; you've no cause to say that. I don't want to dress the children up like countesses! You often throw that in my teeth, you do; but you know it's false, Caudie; you know it! I only wish to give 'em proper notions of themselves; and what, indeed, can the poor things think, when they see the Brigges, the Browns, and the Smiths—and their father don't make the money you do, Caudle—when they see them as fine as tulips? Why, they must think themselves nobody. However, the twenty pounds I will have, if I've any, or not a facturing.
No, sir--no! I don't want to dress up the children like. peacocks and parrots! I only want to make 'em respectable.
What do you say? "You'll give me fifteen pounds. No, Caunda—no! Not a penny will I take under twenty. If I did, it would seem as if I wanted money and I am proud when I come to think of it, twenty pounds will hardly do!

A School at the Pratt Hatchery Will
Give Instruction in Fish
Hundreds of acres of Kansas soil will be put under water during the next few years as a result of the development of the fish industry following the establishment of the giant hatchery at Pratt under supervision of the University.
And these areas will still be under cultivation—fish cultivation—on a plan that will make them yield greater resourcies. The farmer equal number of acres in the state.
"This is our 'planting' season," says Prof. L. L. Dyce "and our planting ear, the 'Anger' is out night and day making the rounds of the state, delivering fish to those who have applied for them."
Not more than 500 fish are apportioned to each person, but even then the total number out will exceed 100,000. They are largely of two varieties, Giant Crappie and Blue Gills. The German Carp is a fish recommended very highly by Prof. Dyche, but the general public insists on regarding it as "a great game," especially for "blue sky" law and refuses to take any stock in Mr. G. Carp. His usefulness is therefore confined to serving at the hatchery as food for other fish.
"The streams of the state," explains Prof. Dyche. "will be supplied with fish of various sizes and ages; but farmers who are enterprising enough to build ponds will receive for stock brood purposes a special assignment of two-year old fish. These are old fish that will be harvested by the farmer two important years before the time to harvest his first crop of fish.

"The greatest hindrance to the full economic success of the plan will be ignorance regarding the rules for fish culture. To remove this, bulletins with ample illustration will be sent out, and institutes for those who desire short courses in fish culture will be conducted at the hatchery. A two week's course will equip anyone to begin the successful raising of fish."

INTER-SCHOLASTIC MEET TO BE CLASSY
Many High School Athlete Will Compete on McCook Saturday
FUTURE KANSSAS-MISSOURI STARS
Members of "Dopers' Union" Figurein
Out Some Good Records—Law-
rence and Central Promising.
"Members of the 'doper's union' not attending the fifth interscholastic invitation meet will miss the chance of a life time to get a few pointers on future Jayhawker and Tiger track athletes." This was the edict this morning of Coach Hamilton, grand mogul of the above "union."
The meet will be an inter-scolastic bout with fifty-five track men competing from Kansas, high schools, many of them record-breakers of the last inter-scolastic meet, and five men from Missouri's hammets, the rack of the Kanada, the high schools, and the various other schools seated throughout the state.
Forty men alone will hail from Kansas City, Missouri. All of them are coming to the Jayhawk town with the avowed purpose of showing those Kansas youngsters what real class is like. The squad of athletes hailing from Missouri are reported to be the elastious bunch turned out in years. The big point scorer, however, on which they base their hopes is J. Reber, called very accurately a one man track team. This youngerster will certainly make the Kansas weight men go, as his average throw at present in the discus will beat that which wins many of the Missouri Valley meets.
As for the aggregation of Kansas track men who will compete with these athletics hailing from Missouri, they are the fastest ever turned out in this state. Among them will be seen Palmer, MacDonald, Hartwig, Brooker and Patterson, holders of five state inter-scolastic records. To beat them the cub tigers will have to show real class. In addition to these
men a fast bunch of unknowns are expected from Topeka and several other localities that were not represented in the inter-state meet.
All in all they are a likely looking bunch of comers representing the state of Kansas, who will make the Missouri-New York sprinting if the latter hope to win.
Very little dope can be obtained on many of the teams competing, but depo from the Lawrence high school track team spells confidence. Lawrence presents a very strong line up with two state record holders. The weight events in which she was weak, are picking up. One of her men heavened the platter-weight within half a foot of the state record the other might in turn have picked off in the weights, Lawrence may succeed in nosing out Central high school, the other aspirants of the meet for school honors.
Jayhawkers Lost to the Bluejays at Fulton, Missouri, 7 to 2

In the seventh the Westminster, crowd again took a liking to Buzick's offerings and aided by a couple of Kansas errors added two more to their collection of tallies. The eight inning passed without a dent in the pan but in the ninth the Presbyterian brought one more man across.

KANSAS TRACK MEN
MAY LAND SECOND
Missouri Conceded First in Annual Missouri Valley Conference Meet
Will Kansas land second place in the Missouri Valley Conference meet, to be staged at Des Moines the latter part of next week? This is the next question to be solved by the Jayhawker track man.
To Missouri first place must be conceded on account of their victory over this years Jayhawker aggregation, as well as the class shown in the various meets this year by their individual stars. The real fight will be between Kansas, Nebraska, Drake and Ames for second place.
Comparative results would place Kansas an easy second, the Kansas team having defeated the Cornhuskers, while the trap airsiders from Ames were administered a taste of their stuff by Nebraska a week before.
With Missouri in the meet things have a different aspect, as the long legged Tiger athletes will eat up in many of the events in which Kansas surpasses Nebraska. Nebraska on the other hand will be sure to count in the mile and half, as she has two of her legs. You can also see these events. If they also land places in a few other events it looks like a hard fight for second honors.
On the other hand Kansas is relying on points from at least seven events. To land second the Kansas speedsters will have to land seconds and thirds in a good many of the contests.
With a good day Murray should defeat the other schools in the two mile. Kansas also looks strong in the 100 and 220. In the pole vault with Cramer right we may look for a second. In the broad jump, high jump, and hurdles Kansas looks like at least a possible second.
This tournament will decide the championship of the Womens' Athletic Association. Prizes are offered to winners of both doubles and singles.
The girls and faculty ladies who will enter the tournament are: Florence Black, Francis Black, Mary Reding, Frederika Hodder, Florence
Fugua, Marion Manley, Mary Stanwaita, Cora Downs, Mrs. A. T. Walker, Mrs. Merle Thorpe, Mrs. Clara P. Newport, Edith Becker, Bertha Anderson, Marie Sealy, and Isabel Thomes.
Any others who wish to enter either singles or doubles may give their names to Mary Reding or Marie Sealy.
The games will be played on the McCook courts. Doubles will start at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon, and the singles will start Saturday morning at 8:30. The finals will be played off Saturday afternoon.
Fifteen members of the association have signified their intention of entering the tournament and more are expected to come in before tomorrow.
It all depends on the day and the condition in which the athletes find themselves. It has been demonstrated that the Kansas team is too light for any successful mud shagging or sliding exercises, so the men should be right in this meet to make up for their general delinquency at Columbia.

SENIORS' CLASS DAY WILL BE DIFFERENT
Class of 1912 Will Start Innovation During CommencementWeek
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 20, 1912.
COMPLETE PROGRAM IS GIVEN
Commencement Exercises And Alumni Banquet June 5-Week is Full of Festivities.
The Commencement week program is now complete and was given out in its entirety by L. N. Flint, the secretary of the Alumni Association this morning.
Several innovations will be made by the senior class this year on Class Day, June 4. The toot pole exercises which have always been held in the hot sun in front of Fraser Hall will be given in the grove west of Snow Hall. The members of this year's class, even if they must go out as half-baked examples of American citizens, which opponents to college always maintain is the true description of seniors, do not desire to be broiled in the process
The class breakfast has been reintroduced as a feature of Class Day this year. The farewell to buildings, where speeches are made in front of the main buildings of the campus by members of the class, will be better arranged by this year's seniors. In previous years but few of the spectators could hear the talks on account of a lack of adequate platform. The committee will arrange for official boxes of the decorated dry goods sort from which the speakers must talk, and box bearers will be appointed to transport them, (the boxes not the speakers) to the different buildings.

ADHERE TO QUIZ SCHEDULE
Chancellor Strong Says Examinations Must be taken at Time Set.
"Teachers and students," said Chancellor Strong this morning, "should adhere strictly to the schedule of final examinations adopted by the University Council. The Council alone has authority in the matter."
A great deal of confusion has resulted from the fact that certain instructors have announced examinations for other dates that those set forth by the authorized schedule. This causes trouble in other courses, and even when the course is not conflict, leads students to pitfall the other professor for an earlier date.
The regents have made it a rule that examinations must be held, and if these finals are not held at the authorized time, it may result in difficulty in getting the final grades recognized by the registrar.
KAPPA SIGMA HOLDS FORMAL INSTALLATION
Twenty-Three Men Initiated Into the Gamma Omicron
Chapter
The installation of Gamma Omicron chapter of Kappa Sigma took place last Saturday in the I. O. O. F. halls. Seventy-five members from the chan-
ters from Washburn, Baker and William Jewell, together with Lynn W. Bloom, Worthy Grand Master of the twelfth district, were here and conducted the initiation which started at nine o'clock in the morning and was not concluded until ten o'clock next morning.
Twenty three men received the ritual. The initiation was in charge of Grand Master Bloom, assisted by J. T. Trimble of William Jewell, G. W. Stevenson and R. C. Coffman of Baker, and A. B. Miller and W. W. Drum of Washburn.
After the initiation, a banquet was served.
EXTRADAYFORGOLFERS

On account of the out-of-town game Saturday between the Oread Golf club team and that of the Fort Leavenworth Field club, which took many of the local players to Leavenworth, the time for completing the first round of the third annual handicap tournament of the Oread club has been extended one day. Four of the matches were played last week this afternoon.
The second round must be com pleted by Thursday, of this week and the semi-finals by Monday, of next week, while the finals will be played on a date to be arranged later. In the game Saturday on the course at the army post, Fort Leavenworth, the officers defeated the Oread team by a score of 18 to 7.
DISCUSS PREVENTION OF CRIME IN KANSAS
Kansas Institute of Criminology Formulate Plans for New Criminal Legislation
COMPOSED OF PROMINENT MEN
NUMBER 85.
Membership of Organization Shoul Stigmatize Any Unjust Criticism of its Investigations
The first meeting of the Kansas Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology held Friday and Saturday, adjourned Saturday, after having accomplished a great deal in the furtherance of construction of proper criminal laws.
Nine committees for the investigation and discussion of various problems were appointed and made their reports. Most of these committees, recommended that permanent committees be appointed to make a more thorough investigation of the problems, the results of law enacted in other states for the purpose of remedying these defects.
The problems discussed by these committees were:
"Offenses and their prosecution."
"Trial procedure."
"The jury."
"The county attorney."
The adult offender.
Juvenile courts.
The criminal insane."
Appeals and proceedings in error.
This institute is an organization made up of lawyers, judges, physicians, sociologists, psychologists, penologists, charity workers, teachers of law, and of public school men who are seeking to advertise authoritatively the merits of our laws and courts, and the need of thorough, scientific, and continued study of the criminal law and its administration in this state.
"Appeals and proceedings in error,"
"Cruise and protection of errors."
They feel that the expert knowledge of the different professions represented in this organization and the combined standing of its members will enable it to stigmatize unjust criticism, and its investigations will, by union of effort and experience, give good results.
The Acacia fraternity entertained the Alpha Delta Phi sorority with an informal dinner and boating party Saturday night.
Miss Helen Geissner, a graduate of the University, will teach mathematics in the Clay Center high school this fall.
Mrs. A. Henley, one of the Chi Omega's patronesses, entertained the Chi Omegas at dinner Saturday, May 18.

OREAD MAG BEATS
PREVIOUS RECORD
At the regular meeting of the K. U. Debating Society last week two important questions were debated. The first debate was on the question, "Resolved that the State of Kansas should adopt the Initiative and Referendum."
Things Happen With a Vengeance in the May Issue of that Publication
The second debate, "Resolved that the United States should interfere in Mexico," was given a decision for the first time, supported by Adair, Poors and Boman.
Kimball, Fairechild and Houghton were the affirmative speakers.
AMMONS' STORY IS FEATURE
The negative, upheld by McClure, Hoyt and Edwards, won the decision of the judges.
Hoyt, Meissner and Bennet spoke on the negative. Hoyt and Bennett substituted for two men who were unaware of the difference; therefore spoke without preparation.
Two Important Questions Wer Up Before the Society Last Week
Earl, F Ammons, erstwhile demoliser of half-backs and right field fences, has written a story. It's a football story with a local setting, and the Oread Magazine which comes off the press next Thursday, prints it.
DEBATERS TALK LONG TALKED TO Y. M. C. A.
Fred Scott, age twenty and bow legged, is a freshman in college who has heard tales of "beer busts," and tried to go and do likewise—to his sorrow. Ellis Davidson tells of him, in "For Every Idle Word."
Football Captain Writes "His Whit ened Reputation" to Satisfy Critics in Short-Story Class.
Miss Helen Hurst of Kansas City who has been the guest of Elizabeth DeBord, returned to her home this morning.
Ammons' story has a history. Two months ago, some individuals in the short story class chided the ex-f football captain about his style in writing. The Rock "Crusher" looked grieved. Then he announced, "I'll just show me some things." Watch me. Whereupon they head and bedpan on "His Whitened Reputation." It is finished now, and the readers of the May Oread will see it.
Mr. and Mrs. G. K. Bideau left Saturday night for their home in Chanute after spending the week with their daughter Edith Mac, a senior in the College.
Other writers of the May Oread, area Willard Wattles, Asher Hobson, Ruth Van Doren and Miriam Smyth. The Magazine will be on sale both Thursday and Friday of this week.
Jack Williams, who has written other stories for the Oreand, appears this month with a tale of a real forest fire in the far north. Jack was in a Canadian lake, last summer with only his face above water when the fire swept over him, and his tale is realistic in the extreme.
In "Rope Burn," a western story by Guy Von Schrittle, a mean bronc, a hard-twist rope, and a girl from the east perform and cause Mark Wilson pain—and joy. Earl Potter, who is noted for his fearful writings, relieves his system of some of those sad, sad, thoughts about "Laundries" and "Golf." Equally sad is the story of "Bobtail, dat nigah what got de best ob debil." Bobtail is the creation of Hermione Sterling.
Pan-Hellenic will entertain the Phi Alpha Delta sorority with a tea, Tuesday afternoon, from four to six, at the Chi Omega house.
Reese Ryland, of Kansas City, is visiting at the Sig Alph house.
Miss Thekla Wolfenkuhler, of Leavenworth, spent Sunday at the Chi Omega house.
In Absence of Mr. Beardsley Professor Hill Addressed the Meeting
Meeting
At the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. lsat week, the last regular meeting of the year, H. M. Beardside was to have spoken but was unable to be there, Mr. Bairdside was present to introduce Mr. Beardside as called upon and made a short talk.
"The real agents of civilization," declared Prof. Hill, "are the serious minded, law abiding men The University depends upon this kind of men. Many of us must perform the service of the little lights of New York harbor, their work being to aid the one great light of the harbor."
Professor J. E. Boodin in a few remarks said "Loyalty must be the quality of every man who is sincere. Our great leaders are merely the focus of what is going on around us. In what everywork you may engage try to improve with the purpose of improving your community and humanity."
NO FINAL EXAMINATIONS
HELD IN GYM CLASSES
All Absences Must be Made Up Before the Commencement of Examination Week.
There will be no special exercises in gymsmats for the final examinations. The work of the year is required to be completed, the week before examination week.
The Freshmen girls are completing their work this year by learning the Dutch and Spanish dances. The Irish and Gilgamesh and the Highland Fling art. required.
There are three special requirements for the boys. They are "chinning," the "dip" and climbing along a fifteen foot horizontal ladder seven feet from the ground. The purpose of "chinning" is to allow the upper part of the arm, while the "dip" develops the under muscles of the upper arm.
The Freshmen boys have been put through a course, this year, in such a manner as to establish a certain method for next year's freshmen.
"The rule hereafter," says Mr. Root, the instructor of the boy's gymnasium, "will be that unless the freshmen have satisfactorily completed the requirement course, they will be obliged to take it." The same will until they give complete satisfaction."
Miss May Hunter of Leavenworth spent Saturday and Sunday at the Chio Omego house, a guest of Edith Van Eman.

MONDAY, MAY 20, 1912
Good morning! Have you answered Owen Johnson's questions?
The German newspapers think it is a joke, that Susie and her sisters should be enrolled in the University. Over there they have a more practical use for the canine race.
The Regents have high praise for the cafeteria cooks. Perhaps they think so highly of them that they will give them a nice large Commons to work in instead of the present restricted quarters.
KNOCKERS
It is said that a well known sulphur magnate who quotes much scripture for his purposes, has as his favorite quotation, "Knock and it shall be opened unto you." And although the better class of knackers is excepted it is safe to say that the greater number of these gentry, the hoi polloi, as it were, are truly inspired of the evil one.
There are several brands of hammer artists. There is the old-fashioned kind who knocks to reduce expenses. He is the primal ancestor of all knockers, and there are at least one of him in every community. He knocks a lot, but never when it costs anything. If he happens to be uptown, he may drop in and tell the editor of the local paper his troubles, but he never mails out his grievances under good, government postage stamps. His knocks are worthless, but he knows not that they are worthless. He is a fool; scorn him.
Then there is the knocker who knocks for the pure lust of knocking. He looks not to the result of his slams, but bangs away without let or hindrance, sparing neither the strong or the weak, the just or the unjust, this fat or the lean, the quick or the dead. His efforts may be fruitful or unfruitful, but he lists not, neither does he heed. He lives to knock, he does not knock to live. Be his knocking profitable or useless, he knows not to what extent it is either. Nor does he care. He is a mania; watch him, or if possible, lock him up.
Then there is another knocker, the consummate master of knockery, who knocks with his eyes open. He is not like the hero of this little epic: "Mary got a little knock
Which was a boost instead Because the hammer singer used His arms and not his head."
This type of knocker always selects just the right instrument for his purpose. He does not attempt to demolish a cobweb with a pile driver, or to exterminate mosquitoes with a double barrelled shotgun, or to stamp out forty-foot hedges by legislative enactment. On the other hand he does not try to destroy massive windmills with a wooden lance, or to undermine a stone wall with a salad fork, or overthrow the constitution of the United States with a letter to the local paper.
But with care and forethought, he singles out objects of real harm to the community, chooses his weapons
intelligently, and directs them with exactness at the vulnerable points of the enemy. Then he swings and swings hard. His knocks are efficient and he knows that they are efficient. He is the wise knocker; boost him.
The farmers of Kansas, according to a news report, are going to raise a fish crop. Some public-spirited citizen down on the Arkansas river will shortly demand that the board of Regents of the University establish a state university of fisheries at his town.
The Kansas Institute of Criminology met at the University last week. It is hoped they devised suitable punishment for the crime of appropriating the University's books from the library and for the criminal who refuses to pay the subscription to his college paper.
THE COST OF A CHEAP SYSTEM
From the Ka Kasa City Star.
The recent decision of the Kansas Supreme Court uphold the law to establish a school of mines at Weir City affords the people of Kansas another illustration of the incompetency of its present legislative system.
There is a general impression over the state that the school of mines at Weir City is to be established as a branch of the State University. That is where the school fooled the people, and doubtless, fooled a majority of the legislators themselves.
The law provides that the school shall be a "separate and independent institution of learning, and one of the colleges of the state."
It provides for a course of study, a four years' term, and that the school shall issue its own diplomas of graduation.
The joker is that the lawreally establishes another state university, and in its course of study does not provide for a single branch that is not now taught at the state university or the agricultural college.
To establish the school $12,500 was appropriated this year and $12,500 for next year. The entire sum is not sufficient even to make a fair beginning for the kind of a school the law provides for. No less than a quarter of a million will be required for the institution planned in the law, and for that amount will not be the state will not obtain a single education advantage for their children which they are not now paying for in the university or the agricultural college.
During the past few years Kansas had the greatest difficulty to obtain from the legislature the appropriations demanded by the two state schools. The last legislature was particularly antagonistic to liberal appropriations, and yet it was established so cheerfully another university to tax the resources of the state.
Every dollar given to another school to teach the same things already taught in the state schools merely increases the cost of education without adding anything to its value. But that is precisely what the state legislature "put over" on the people of the state. That is a part of the price of a cheap legislative system.
Mr. McCormick's gift of twenty-five thousand dollars to last year's victorious football team at Princeton is a commandable step in the direction of putting athletes on a really sound commercial basis. Football finances have already enlisted some of the finest minds in our colleges, but the happy-go-lucky spirit of play has still been too prominent in the management of our leading intercollegiate interest. The elaborate system of recruiting material from the preparatory schools, the long and arduous period of training, the spirit that makes defeated teams walk weeping from the field, all these facts have gone far towards removing the silly notion that intercollegiate games are played just for the fun of the thing. Football is real, football in earnest, even if the graves sometimes lies beyond the goal. Spring practice and fall practice, the enlistment of an army of expert coaches, the long blackboard drill in stratagy, the dispatch of trained watchers for the purpose of studying the peculiarities of rival teams, all these things have happily contributed towards making football a business and not an amusement. What was needed was the prospect of a substantial money reward for the victorious team to free football contests from any intrusion of the play instinct which is so injurious to the winning of games and now it has come.—New York) Evening Post.

And next the dog notices that he has getting fagged, and that the coyote actually has to slacken speed a little, to keep from running away from him. And then that town-dog is mad in earnest, and he begins to strain, and weep, and swear, and paw the sand higher than ever, and reach for the coyote with concentrated and desperate energy.

stretched over it, a tolerably bushy tail that forever says down with a despairing expression of forsaken and misery, a furtive and evil eye, and a long, sharp face, with slightly lifted lip and exposed teeth.
All this time the dog is only a short twenty feet behind the coyote, and, to save the life of him, he cannot understand why it is that he cannot get perceptibly closer; and he begins to get aggrivated, and it makes him madder and maddder to see how gently the coyote glides along, and never pants or sweats, or ceases to smile; and he grows still more and more incensed to see how shamefully he has been taken in by an entire stranger, and what an ignoble swindl is that long, calm, soft-footed tret is.
He has a general slinking expression all over. The coyote is a living, breathing animal.
sill all over. The coyote is a living, breathing allegory of want. He is always hungry. He is always poor, out of luck, and friendless. The meanest creatures despise him, and even the fleas would desert him for a velocipede. He is so spiritless and cowardly that, even while his exposed teeth are pretending a throne, the form of the fleas it uses. And he is so homely! so scrawny, and ribby, and coarse-haired, and pitiful!
When he sees you he lifts his lip and lets a flash of his teeth out, and then turns a little out of the course he was pursuing, depresses his head a bit, and strikes a long, soft-footed trot through the sage-brush, glancing over his shoulder, at you from time to time, till he is about out of easy pistol-range, and then he stops and takes a deliberate amount of weasel.
He will trot fifty yards and stop again; another fifty, and stop again; and, finally, the gray of his gilding becomes white on the side of the sage-bush, and he disappears.
But, if you start a swift-footed dog after him, you will enjoy it ever so much—especially if it is a dog that has a good opinion of himself, and has been brought up to think that he knows something about speed. The coyote will go swinging gently off on that deceitful trot of his, and every little while he will smile a fraudulent smile over his shoulder that will fill that dog entirely full of encouragement and worldly ambition, and make him lay his head still lower to the ground, and stretch his neck farther to the front, and pant more fiercely, and move his furious legs with a yet wilder frenzy, and leave a broader and broader, and higher and denser cloud of deserts and smoking behind and marking his long wake across the level plain!
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
instant that a wild new hope is lighting up his face, the coyote turns and smiles blondly upon him once more, something about it which seems to say;
LO, THE POOR REPORTER
"Well, I shall have to tear my self away from you, but—business is business, and it will not do for me to be fooling along this way all day." And forthwith there is a rushing sound, and the sudden splitting of a long crack through the atmosphere, and behold, that dog is solitary and alone in the midst of a vast solitude!
AN excellent sedative for nervous excitement is found in using the voice at its lowest comfortable key. Immediate relief from stuttering is often obtained by dropping the voice from a high pitch to a lower tone. Teachers whose pupils become restless and unruily as they themselves grow tired and nervous will find that a low-pitched, quiet tone will relieve their own nervous tension, and prove wonderfully quieting to their pupils.
in the Bromley lectures on journalism at Yale University, A. Maurice Lowe of Washington said the modern newspaper had become a commercial enterprise and sells the kind of news demanded by the greatest number of its readers, and made a pretense of leading popular reforms.
FOR A' THAT, AND A' THAT
Advertising rules the paper and the influence of the reporter on a newspaper is the worst at the present time, Mr. Lowe said. "Men of trivial minds without perspective, without education, are the ones who decide what the public is to read," he said. "These trivial minds habit of the nation. No other class of men are supposed to have educational power, so little training and selected ability for their work as the great body of newspaper reporters."
This simple expedition is also useful when you are trying to control or prevent weeping. There are times when a person fears to talk tell he breaks down and cry, yet must answer a question or carry on a conversation. Again, the
deep lower tones of the voice, joined to slow, deep breathing, come to the rescue, and self-control is gained.
In any situation where one must struggle for self-possession, the low-pitched voice, with its impression of poise and self-confidence, is a wonderful aid. Even under ordinary circumstances the lower register of the speaking voice is richer and more musical.—Youth's Companion.

ONE MAN TEAM TAKES INVITATION HONORS
Central High Takes Annual School Meet Through Work
of Reber
CENTRAL STAR GETS TWO CUPS
Wins 19 or 38½ Points Scored b Team—Hardy of Catholic High Second in Individual Honors
Through the brilliant work of one man, the Central high school of Kansas City, Mo., captured the fifth annual invitation track and field meet Saturday by a score of $38\%$ points. J. Reber, the star of the Central team, took 19 of the total number of points scored. The following scores were made by the competing schools: Central, Kansas City; $38\%$; Westport, Kansas City; $28\%$; Lawrence $24\%$; Catholic high; $11\%$; Clay Center, Wichita; 7; Iola 5; Washington 5; Onaga, 5; Arkansas City 5; Tonganoxie, 3; Humboldt 3; Coffeyville, 2; Perry, 2.
The meet was run off under ideal conditions and though only two records were broken, good time was made in all of the events. J. Reber established a new record of 47 feet, 10 inches in the shot put. He made this on his first trial. Hartwig of Humboldt held the previous record of 41 feet. Moll of Onaga smashed the invitation meet record in the high jump when he cleared the bar at 5 feet 9 inches.
One of the prettiest races of the afternoon was the mile, won by Root of Clay Center. Root was led by two men until the last quarter of the final lap when he showed his great reserve power by making a fast sprint and crossing the tape in the lead with a time of 4:40.
J. Reber of Central was easily the star of the meet. He won two cups, one for the highest individual point scores and the other for breaking an invitation meet record, and was also presented with medals for taking first in the shot put, high hurdles and discus, second in the low hurdles and
a "one man team" for Central and usually scores over half of the total points made by the rest of his team mates. Hardy of the Catholic high school won fourth place for his school by taking firsts in the 50 and 100 yard dashes and tying for third in the 220 yard dash.
The Kansas City, Kansas high school track team missed their train and were forced to remain out of the game. A summary of the events follows;

KANSAS TAKES THIRD IN TENNIS ROUNDS
Burnett and Nees Headed by Washington and Missouri UniversitiesSaturday
In the finals of the Missouri Valley Conference Tennis Tournament played off Saturday on the courts at Columbia, the University of Kansas came out third best with a standing of 4. The final standing of the teams was: Washington 9 (Missouri Valley Conference tennis champions 1912) Washington 6, Kansas 4, Ames 4
1912) Missouri 6, Kansas 4, Ames 4,
Drake 4.
C. A. Burnett and Paul Nees represented the Jayhawkers, and although they lost out in the singles, they put up a fast classy game in tryouts in the doubles and qualified for the finals by winning from Cannon and Bushman of Missouri 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 and 6-1. The finals were followed by the finals to Broxid and Adkins of Washington by a score of 6-3, 6-4 and 6-1.
In the singles Burnett lost to Cannon of Missouri 6-4 and 6-2. Nees also lost to Brodix of Washington in the qualifying rounds by a score of 6-2, 3-6 and 5-7. This weeding out left the finals between Brodix and Cannon. The playing was fast and aggressive on both sides, though Cannon put up the better game. He was never headed throughout the contest and the final score ended in his favor for Missouri 6-1, 6-1 and 6-2.

The second game was forfeited to Missouri 9 to 0 when the Kansas Coach refused to be shoed off the field by protesting a decision of the umpire.
The Missouri baseball Tigers extracted two games from the Jayhawkers on Friday and Saturday of last week. The first battle went to Missouri by a 5 to 2 count, the second followed the first by a score of 3 to 1.
THE GAME SATURDAY
After the umpire had called two men out on strikes and was rapidly making way with the third Coach Sherwin advised Catron, umpire, to brush away a few of the cobwebs that impaired his honorable vision. Catron ordered the Kansas coach to

depart, and the coach refused. The umbrella then lifted the game to Misha's side.
In a short time he asked Sherwin if his men were ready to take the field and supposing the argument was over the Kansas men trotted out. He said a couple of hits and gathered in a run. Missouri picked two in the sixth.
In the opening half of the seventh Kansas put two men on. Wilson then lined a ball over the fence for a home run. The umpire refused to see it that way however and motioned Wilson back to the bat. That was all. He made a run on the ball, but the Missourians had already started for the club house and the umps announced that the game was lost before it had been started.
The score for the seven sessions:

THE GAME FRIDAY
The game Friday was a pitcher's battle with Walker of Kansas and Angerer of Missouri performing in great style. Missouri got away in the first inning with two runs and picked up one more in each of the third, fourth, and fifth. Kansas scores came in the fifth and ninth. The game was marred by poor umpiring and several protests were made. Kansas suffered most, having incurred the official's wrath by protesting a decision in the first inning when Hall of Missouri slid into first base. The feature of the game was a home run by Holmrick of Missouri.

THE PLANT THAT MAKES THE JUICF
It Is the Saw Toothed Building at the Western Edge of the Campus
CONTAINS MUCH APPARATUS
Actions of Motor and Generator May be Reversed—Maximum Direct Current is 500 Amperes
The electric power plant of the University is located in the sawtoothed building at the western side of the campus.
The plant contains a direct current generator, a Ball engine, a turbo alternator, a motor-generator set, a supply pump, a fire-pump, a condenser and a switchboard, besides a great deal of auxiliary apparatus.
THE DIRECT CURRERT GENERATOR
THE DIRECT CURRENT GENERATOR
The direct-current generator is connected to a cross-compound Ball engine of 225 horse power and operates at a speed of 225 revolutions per minute with a voltage of 110 or 220. The maximum current is 500 amperes
THE TURBO-ALTERNATOR
THE TURBO-ALTERNATOR
The alternating current generator has a capacity of 100 kilowatts and delivers a current of 25 amperes at a pressure of 2300 volts. The turbine is rated at 100 kilowatts for a steam pressure of 150 pounds per square inch.
THE MOTOR-GENERATOR SET
In the motor-generator set a 240-volt direct-current motor drives a 2300-volt alternator. The motor requires 312 amperes at full load and is electrically connected to a direct-current generator. The alternator has a capacity of 75 kilowatts at 60 RPM. The motor can operate with 3 kilowatts with a voltage of 125. The normal speed of the set is 900 revolutions per minute.
The actions of the motor and generator may be reversed, causing the motor to run backward.
operate as a *generator* with the generator as a motor. Thus with either primary operating, both alternating and direct-currents may be supplied to the lines. The con-convenience of this is evidenced by the fact that the direct-current load is a maximum during the day and minimum at night.
ATERNATING CURRENTS
For the alternating current the conditions are just reversed, its day
load being a minimum and right load a maximum. During the day the direct-current generator is used, the alternating current being furnished by the motor-generator set, the direct current end acting as a motor.
OPERATING AT NIGHT
At night the turbo-alternator is operated, the motor generator set furnishing what direct current is needed. In this case the alternating-current acts as a motor. Occasionally, on extremely dark days, it is necessary to operate both units in parallel.
TEST EMPORIA DYNAMOS
Students Study Electric Plant a Emporia as Regular Thesis Work
B. R. Mock, C. V. Waddington, and Prof. C. A. Johnson returned from Emporia last week where they have been testing the dynamos, for efficiency of the Emporia Light and Railway company.
The test of these dynamos is the regular thesis work of B. R. Mock and C. V. Waddington, who will be graduated from the electrical deeling department of the School of Engineering this year. The test was assisted by W. D. Thompson, a junior.
The results of these tests will be made as soon as the men finish gathering data which will be finished and shipped to the electrical plant of Emporia.
REDMANITE PROVES VERSATILE PRODUCT
Substance Invented by Industrial Has Many Uses in Electric Apparatus
This may be used in any place where porcelain is used and has the advantage of being cheaper and not so likely to be broken as the earthenware.
One of the materials which will tend to have its share in the revolution of the world of electricity is the versatile substance discovered, or rather invented, by the industrial fellows here and called "Redmanite."
We have been doing most of the wiring of old houses for the Lawrence Railway and Light Company that has been secured on their special offer, and every one we have wired for is a "Booster." You'll be surprised to know what a swell line of Electric Fixtures we carry in stock; and at all times, we welcome inspection. Come in, and look 'em over.

Those roomers will soon be gone for the summer and then is the time to install a good light. You know what we mean. Let it sink in.
Probably the greatest utilization that can be made of it in this line is in impregnating the coils of generators, motors, transformers, induction coils, etc. It is far cheaper than the method used at present for this purpose as it will allow the wiring to lie snugger and closer to the armature. The silk insulation of the coils is impregnated with Redmanite and then it is not necessary to varnish or shellac them as is done at the present time.

The Best Tenants Demand Electric Light
INDIVIDUAL MOTORS
GIVE MORE EFFICIENCY
Better Results Justify Additional First Cost of the Installation
One of the new developments brought to factories and industrial plants by the use of electricity for power is the practice of fitting up machines with individual motors, thus saving in the cost of power and avoiding the inconvenience and unsightly appearance of long lines of shafting and belts.
When the press of the department of journalism was installed in the basement of the Medic building -ast January, every machine in the plant was fitted up with its individual motor. The result has been greater efficiency, greater convenience, and more satisfactory work. Another place where journalists were installed was in the new day's medicatory, and the result has fully justified its additional first cost of installation in the opinion of Professor Haworth.
Line-shafting eats up power, obstructs light, and is more or less dirty. Machinery in this manner must be placed with reference to the shaft, a sacrifice of efficiency. The laboratories at the University are demonstrating the superiority of individual motor equipment.

Another great use it can be put to is in place of hard rubber in electrical apparatus such as is used in the department of physics. The sulphur in hard rubber has a tendency to be oxidized into sulphuric acid. This forms a thin layer over the outside of the rubber which becomes acid and allows some of the current to escape Redmanite is not attacked in any way and will not form any substance by standing in the sun or otherwise which is a conductor of electricity.
FIRST BAND CONCERT DREW LARGE CROWD
Despite Cool Weather, Many Students Climbed the"Hill" Friday Night
Although Friday evening was a trifle chilly out of doors, a large crowd listened to the first of the weekly concerts to be given by the University band, on the museum steps. The band rendered the program in a pleasing manner and added a few more pieces for a good measure.
The library steps were crowded, while the lawn north of it was dotted with those who had no fear of catching cold. No one had trouble hearing the museum doorway made an excellent amply to amplify the sounds of the music.
It was the intention of Mr. McCanles to give a concert each Friday night during the month of May. Bad weather prevented the first which was postponed until last Friday. A farewell concert will be given on the steps next Friday. The program will be announced in the Daily Kansan as soon as it is prepared by Mr. McCanles.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 21, 1912.
DAILY KANSAN IS THE BIGGEST IN THE WEST
Only One College Paper in the World Has Any More Subscribers
THE HARVARD CRIMSON LEADS
College Journalism Flourishes Best in the West—4 of the First 6 Dailies This Side of Mississippi
The University Daily Kansan has the largest circulation of any college daily newspaper in the United States, which means the world, only excepting the Harvard Crimson. That venerable sheet is 40 years old and the Daily Kansan was born last January, so in rate of growth, the youngest college daily far exceeds the Crimson.
The subscription rate of the Daily Kansan is among the lowest and it stands fourth in the size of each issue printed. Many of the larger college dailies print the news of the cities in which they are located, and some even print telegraph news. Some of these are the University Missouriian, the Daily Cardinal and the Daily Princetonian.
Following is a list of the 25 daily college newspapers of the country, showing their relative sizes in square inches, subscription prices and circulation. The figures are from the current Annual Newspaper Directory.
BEECH-NUT FELLIOWSHIP
GOES TO UNIVERSITY MAN
Mr. W. E. Vawter, a fellow in the department of chemistry, has been appointed to a fellowship at Pittsburg. The fellowship is know as the Beechnut Fellowship and provides for the payment of $6,000 per year, for three men, who will work toward the development of new food products.
Mr. Vawter will take up his work at Pittsburg July 1.
Prof. W. A. Griffith of the School of Fine Arts has been called to Kan-City on account of the serious illness of his father.

Minnesota students in general and Minnesota athletes in particular have an emphatic way of expressing their disgust at being kept in the conference by the action of their faculty, And it also shows the sincerity of their beliefs. Out of fifteen men who were awarded football letters only two men accepted them and the rest of the team refused.
No word has been received as the war in Mexico but this company's motto is "in time of peace prepare for war," so the bullets will sing in a real business-like manner on the range week after next.
At the function where the M's were given out many of the team were present but solidly refused to come forth and get their reward. Their united and unanimous reason was that they were forced against the defence if they would not accept the letter under those circumstances.

SAVE THOSE BOOKS
English Professor Says College Texts Will Become More Valuable in Time
"Too many students think it is clear gain to get out of buying a book," said a professor of the English department to one of his classes yesterday. "Some of the college books will be treasured anything else in time because they are very careful about selling books that will have a permanent value.
"At this time of the year especially,
there is a great temptation to get rid
of every book possible. Students as a
group read the best books but they
should have the
"Do not load your shelves with books which have been purchased as the result of innocence and inexperience Know what you are buying, be critical about editions and discerning in selecting good books. Make a dollar go is far as possible. Find out where books are published, which ones are well made, and become familiar with the different editions.
"When anyone asks me what edition to buy the first thing I wish to know is, how much money have you to invest? Some of the best editions of such authors as Shelley, Keats, Arnold, and Tennyson may be bought for thirty-five cents. They have good print and the editorial quality is unsurpassed. The editions they may be head for many times as much, which are better bound and have better paper but they contain identically the same material."
"I know when I got every book I have, I always put the date in it, the place where it was bought and the person who买了 it will be interesting to know these things.
"There is no reason why anyone who wishes to, may not have a good librarian."

SALE OF ANNUAL IS OVER SIX HUNDRED
Entire Edition Will Probably Be Sold During Commencement Week
Word was given out this morning by the manager of the Jayhawker that those who have not yet purchased one of the large, black, leather-bound University year books had better obtain one of them while they last. The demand for the Jayhawker art book this year has been great and the reports on the workmanship portrayed between its creators and its publishers at University, have brought malt orders and requests that volumes be saved for persons out of town.
Copies of the annual may be obtained from Clark Wallace at the cheek stand in Fraser hall during chapel morning in the next two weeks. Copies may also be placed on sale in the Registrar's office and in several of the stores down town.
"The actual sale of the book has numbered more than six hundred and in the next two weeks of school and during commencement week, the remainder of the books will be sold out. When the old grades arrive in town, the book bids fair to sell at a premium.
Estimating the relative number of purchasers from the various Schools in the University, Mr. Wallace made the statement this morning that he thought the students of the College had proved the students of the Boylers of the entire University all right by sale of the book had well distributed among the entire student-body.
A Word of Appreciation the Class of 1912:
I feel that the great honor bestowed upon me by your generous dedication to me of this year's Jayhawker, calls for some expression of appreciation on my part. I should doubtless find it impracticable to thank you individually, but I wish you to know that I am grateful beyond words, that I am proud of the beautiful volume, and that I wish for you one and all the greatest possible amount of success and happiness.
Yours sincerely, Wm. L. Burdick.

STUDENTS TO MAKE BIOLOGICAL SURVEY
R. D. Lindsley Will Have Charge of Party of Five or Six
PRACTICAL VALUE OF SURVEYS
Quantities of Clams and Crawfishes Found by Former Party Have Proved of Economic Worth
Preparations are being completed for the first party of the biological survey this summer. The trip will be made by Ray Hawkins, Howard Marchbanks, Raymond Beamer, Ittai Luke, and probably one or two others under R. D. Lindsey, an instructor in the department of zoology.
They will start June 6th, and cover the southern part of the state that lies between the Neosho, Verdigris, and Arkansas rivers. The survey is conducted by the department of the state and collects the fauna and flora of the state, with special regard to its distribution.
This work has been carried on by the department of zoology for the last ten or twelve years. Last year it was made a separate department of the state.
HAVE PROVED OF ECONOMIC BENEFIT.
Although the primal result is that of scientific knowledge, the observations have generally been of an economic benefit. Last year clams were found at a place on the Marais des Cygnes river in such quantities that they could be counted with a profit, for commercial purposes, making, etc. At a place on Spring river, crawfishes were found in sufficient numbers to make a harvest of them profitable.
INFORMATION WORKED INTO THESES
This year observations will be made on the character of the streams to determine suitable places for the planting of the fish, which the state hatchery at Pratt will have to distribute. Plankton, the microscopic plants and animals which are the food of many fishes, will be collected and sent to the University for analysis.
INFORMATION WORKED INTO THESES Much of the information, that has been derived from the survey, and the work of the department of biology before, has been worked up into a set of students and faculty. Some of them have been used in the Science Bulletin. R. D. Lindsley, who will have charge of the party, is now assembling material for a paper on Kansas Fishes.
It is now planned to send out three
four other parties later in the
month.
FAIRMOUNT MEN VISIT K. U.

TUESDAY, MAY 21, 1912
Owing to the fact that a final desperate effort will be made by the members of the staff to stay eligible for the Daily Kansan next fall, the reporters will be given a reprieve during quiz week. Only two papers will be published, the first on Monday and the second on Wednesday of quiz week. The Summer Session Kansan will be started during commencement week.
COURTESY
The students are urged by the faculty upon the occasion of any high school event to show the visitors every courtesy. But there seems not to have been an application of Shakespeare's words, "it's a good divine that follows its own teaching," on the part of the faculty.
During the recent interscholastic tennis tournament all of the varsity tennis courts were not in order and some of the matches had to be played on the court commonly knows as the "faculty court."
Some of the faculty players came down a short while after the matches were started and compelled the high school players to vacate the court—it seems that they wished to practice. The matches had to be postponed until the one court that was in condition could be used.
Is it right that the students should be held to account as entertainers and hosts more than the faculty, themselves?
FREE LUNCHES
Several students who brings their lunches on the "hill" leave them in the lockers just outside the Cafeteria. So many of these lunches have been stolen that the practice of lunch carrying is being discontinued. It is a slight thing in itself but it does not reflect very creditably on the student body.
One young woman who had frequently suffered, decided to wrap-up a lunch tempting looking from the outside; but, she stuffed it with orange peels, wads of paper and broken glass. She put it in the accustomed place and at eleven-thirty looked. It was still there; but at twelve fifteen it was gone. No death was reported so the thief is not perishing from want.
This is a matter that the authorities should investigate; although it is not very serious, still it is inconvenient to those who depend upon their lunch from this source. Perhaps if a janitor were put on watch some young "Fagin" would be taught a lesson.
THE DEAD QUIZ
There it lies on the polished desk of the professor. Its limp leaves fluttering and its curled back still moist from the pressure of your racing fingers as you hurriedly outline that tenth question. But it is dead now and harmless. It sprawls there on the table top in an almost pitiful manner.
But there is no pity in your heart. You gloat savagely, as you throw a fiendish glance of triumph at the averted head of the venerable sexton seated by the pile of pale little
corpses. Your classmates hurriedly stab their names on their respective victims and hurry out.
The quiz is dead.
Next morning you stride gavily on the ancient portals of Fraser, and briskly mount two flights of stairs to the offices of the department. Your heart is light within you, and you are at peace with all the world. The morning is bright, the breeze is sweet, and the sunlight is glorious And how that purple martin out there can sing? You are completely at peace with all the world. How sweet it will be to learn how your enemy perished. You will count his every struggle, and rejoice in the throes of his last bitter moments when you so conclusively and finally gave him his quietus in that tentil question.
You approach the grim sexton who audited the last accounts of your defenet enemy. He looks up with an impassive smile, and hands you the lifeless remains of your adversary. You open the first page.
With a fiendish yell, the quiz leaps from his paper sepulcher and branishes a glaring red—
But let us draw the curtain over the horrible scene.
TOWNS AND TREES:
Manhattan in Kansas exemplifies, as Lawrence in Kansas exemplifies, as many Kansas town exemplify, the communal blessing of trees. The two pretty ,saml cities, Lawrence and Manhattan, have each its great school. That particular cultural advantage not every town can have. But the blessing of trees and the town beauty which trees give of themselves and which they carry with them in their accompaniment of well kept grass and tidy houses and paved streets--this blessing all towns can have.
Perhaps the statement should be modified for the far western part of Kansas. Perhaps trees really will not be coaxed to grow in the far western soil. But many Kansas towns are treeless, though trees will grow in them as thrifly as the splendid elms and maples of Manhattan and Lawrence grew.
No town is so small that it need buly. A little railroad "whistling post" could be attractive with trees. Some time the railroads of the west will send out their "abor specials" as they send their good roads trains. There is little excuse for the habitations of men along the track to be usually the single unloveley thing in the Kansas railroad journey.
Have you noticed that where fine trees form a park in the air the people below have holiday manners? The people under the trees seem to be enjoying life. They are not satisfied with slovenness. The accompaniment of nice lawns and pretty, well kept houses and clean streets is a tribute to the exalted status of the town under the arching branches is the nicest sort of laziness. When you loot in the shaded streets of towns like Lawrence and Manhattan you invite your soul. The "good gray poet" would have liked these Kansas towns — Kansas City Star

To His Packing Business

GETTING A START
OUT OF COLLEGE
Dear Plierreport, No, I can't say that I think anything of your post graduate idea. You're not going to be a poet or a professor, but a packer,
There's a chance for everything we have learned, from Latin to poetry; in the packing business, though we
ing house. Some men learn all they ing from books; others from life; both kinds are narrow. The first are all theory; the second are all true
itce. Its the fellow who knows enough about practice to test his theories for blohlowes that gives the word "blowowes" a fair deal of profit in shaving its.
don't use much poetry here in except in our street car ads, and about the only time our products are given Latin names is when the state board of health condemns them. So I think you'll find it safe to go short a little on the frills of education; if you want them bad enough you'll find a way to pick them up later, after business hours.
The main thing is to get a start along the right lines, and that is what I sent you to college for. I didn't expect you to carry off all the education in sight—I knew you'd leave a little for the next fellow. But I wanted you to form good mental habits, just as I want you to have plain, straight physical ones. Because I was run through a threshing machine when I was a boy, and did it myself, she was strata of hair till I was past thirty, I haven't any sympathy with a lot of these old fellows who go around bragging about their ignorance and saying that boys don't need to know anything except addition, and the "best policy" brand of honesty.
The first college man 1 ever hired was old John Durburn's son, Jim.
That was a good many years ago when the house was a much smaller affair. Jim's father had a lot of money until he started to buck the universe and corner wheat. And the boy took all the fancy courses and trimming at college. The old man was mighty proud of Jim. Wanted him to be a literary friend. But old Durham found out what everyone learns who gets his ambitions mixed up with No. 2 red—that there is a heap of it lying around loose in the countryside, and quick work and kept the cow what bread lives that one settling day half a dozen of us had to get under the market to keep it from going to everlasting smash.
That day made young Jim a candidate for a job. It didn't take him long to decide that the Lord would attend to keeping up the visible supply of poetry, and that he had better turn his attention to the stocks of moss pork. Next morning he was laying for me with a letter of introduction when I got to the office, and when he found that I wouldn't have a private secretary at any price, he applied for every other position on the premises right down to office boy. I told him I was sorry, but I couldn't do any thing for him then; that we were letting men go, but I'd keep him in mind, and so on. The fact was that I didn't think a fellow with Jim's training would be much good anyhow. But Jim hung on—said he'd taken a fancy to the house, and wanted to work for it. Used to call by about twice a week to find out if they had turned up.
Finally, after about a month on this, he wore me down so that I stopped him one day as he was passing me on the street. I thought I'd find out if he really was so red-hot to work as he pretended to be; besides, I felt that perhaps I hadn't treated the boy just right, as I had delivered quite a jag of that wheat to his father myself.
"Hello, Jim," I called; "do you still want that job?"
"Yes, sir," he answered, quick as lightning.
"Well, I tell you how it is, Jim." I said, looking up at him—he was one of those husky, lazy-moving six-footers—"I don't see any chance in them," he can use another good strong man in one of the loading gangs."
I thought that would settle Jim and let me out, for it's no joke lugging beef, or rolling barrels and tierees a hundred yards or so to the cars. But Jim came right back at me with "Done. Who'll I report to?"
INTO THE METROPOLITAN FIELD
To the Daily News
Enclosed please find my subscription to the Daily Kansan for one YEAR!
It is my privilege in this business to look over many university and college publications. In my estimation the only Kansan is the "lives" of them all.
You fellows seem to take what small amount of exciting news you have and present it in a most thrilling manner—a manner which gives your sheet the semblance of a metropolitan daily paper.
I have added the Daily Kansan to my list of morning's reading, which included the Chicago Tribune and Hearst's Examiner. It has gotten to be a question with me now which of the three furnishes the most food for thought. Anyway, I will slip it to the Kansan.
Yours very truly,
T. R. Gowenlock.

A fine thing
about attending the University of Kansas is that the student also has the privilege of attending Lawrence —typical old New England town in a Middle West setting, combining in just proportion the beauty and quiet of a charming residence city with the initiative and bustle of a live business center. It thus has the perfection of attractiveness that appeals to youth. Attend Lawrence four years and you can never forget the place where center the historic associations of Kansas—the Athens of Kansas.

Dean of Graduate School Thinks Questions Are Not Vital to Culture
DO NOT GO DEEP ENOUGH
University Professor, However, Thinks Johnson is Right in Deploring Lack of Broad Knowledge.
In discussing the list of twenty questions made out by Owen Johnson, the author of "Stover at Yale," which appeared in the Daily Kansan Wednesday, Dr. F. W. Blackman, professor of biology and Dean of the School Education, said that simply because a college graduate could not answer those questions it did not follow that he was not cultured.
"I realize only too well," he said "that our college student and graduate does not have a broad general knowledge I think Mr. Johnson is on exactly the right track in declaring that general knowledge on diversified topics is not anxiously sought by many students. I have not as yet read his recent book but from the examination of these questions I must say I can't agree that any of them are vital to the well cultured man.
"It itens to me that the questions are not fundamental. Some of them are good and which everyone should know. Some of them seem to me to be simply catch questions. Take the Iceland, Mr. Johnson probably is wise enough to know that few of the students know of politics even in our own country.
"I don't believe that Mr. Johnson delved deep enough into knowledge when he made out his list. He should have gone further beneath the surface. Any high school pupil, it will have to be admitted, knows or should know the difference between anarchism and socialism but there are a great many questions there which some of our most, cultured men need, learned by him."

COLLEGE WOMEN ARE GROWING AMBITIOUS
No Longer Content With Ordinary Professinal Careers They Specialize
The fact that college women are no longer content with familiar professional careers but desire to specialize in distinct and sometimes unique lines, has made it necessary for employers to employ bureaus for their benefit.
The purpose of the bureaus is not only to find employment for these women in the multiplicity of lines that they prefer, but also to protect their interest. The bureaus aim to discover new workers and are paid as much as their work deserves.
It was Miss Susan Kinsberry, president of Simon's College, who found that the average pay received by graduates of her college from one to ten in teaching positions a trifle higher than $500 per annum.
As a result of this statement, a committee on vocational opportunities for college women, was organized three years ago, to make a study of the local conditions in various communities. From this movement the intercollegiate bureaus are being formed. Boston was the first to start an appointment bureau. Philadelphia followed this. A board of directors is in charge of the organizations, consisting entirely of members of the faculties of various women's and co-educational colleges.
Every person applying to any of the intercollegiate bureaus for work must undergo a strict examination before registering. If she be not found qualified for the position that she wants, she cannot register. In effect, the bureau vouches for every one on its lists.
In the three cities where the bureaus are working the number of applicants and the positions procured have exceeded the hopes of the organizers. But the chief surprises resulting from the agencies has been that only a few positions occupied by college women. The numbers run into the hundreds.
The three agencies have found that the greatest demand was for secretarial and clerical work. But even this line is divided into a score of specialities, including secretaries to lishers, schoolers, lishers, scholars, social workers, society women, civil service clerkships and court and law stenographers.

METHODISTS LOST
LISTLESS CONTEST
Slowest Game of the Season Went to the Sherwins
5 to 2
HOME RUNS THE FEATURES
Anything in Left Field Was Good for at Least Two Bases—Walker Was Wild
In the most lattest nine innings of the national sport that the local rooter has ever been forced to endure this season, Kansas defeated Baker University's baseball aggregation by accepting a third, while the Bakers would take but three.
The Kansas men were just in from a long, hard trip and were too tired to display any unusual activity. The Methodists had come to town for the express purpose of getting a beating and could not be happy till they got it.
Kansas led off in the first inning with a score of two hits after two had been disposed of. That was all the scoring until the Preacherites had their lucky streak in the sixth and chased three runs across. In the first place the first man up started the ball in the direction of Billy Buzick, who was gardening in the sun field. William saw the ball start his way and later heard it strike mother earth. The interval between was an absolute blank to Billy.
He succeeded in running the ball down all right but by the time that it was relayed in the runner had crossed the pan. The Kansas team in general took this as a signal to push away from shore and for several minutes they were foundering in the waves and sending out the S.O.S. Two more Preachers had crossed the rubber before the Jayhawks grasped the lifeline.
But the Baker Brethren felt that they must be Alphonso to the Sherwin Gaston and when Wilson and others smote the ball soundly on the nose the Brethren stood patiently and watched the K. U. crowd tie the score.
In the eight after two were down White doubled and Buzick hit a high fly which escaped the Baker left fielder while he was looking for sun spots. This ended the scoring.
Johnson for the Brethren pitched good ball, but showed inexperience when Bunny began his great imitation of Tyrus Cobb in the sixth. Twice Bunny was fairly caught off the bag but the excitement of the Baker pitcher at the thought of getting a put out was too much and he made miserable failures of his toes to the basement.
Walker was wild as a hawk. He issued half a dozen passes and cracked two of the Brethren in the ribs. No hits were made off his delivery when it meant runs however, and he steadied remarkably when there were Bakerites on bases.
The freshman rule of the Missouri Valley Conference affected the playing strength of the Baker team as they were forced to move in their outfielders to cover second, third, and

A new feature which will be added to the curriculum of the Summer School this summer is the course given by Coach Hamilton in organizing and coaching track and basket-ball teams. A similar course has proven successful at the University of Missouri and should do as well here.
"This is a chance for persons who are teaching or intend to teach in high schools to make themselves more valuable for that purpose, as there is a great deal of interest taken in those branches of athletics by the high schools of the state," said Prof. A. T. Walker this morning.
Prof. Walker also remarked that this year will probably be a record one in attendance judging from the large number of inquiries received and general interest shown.

Game with Quigley's Athletes
Tommorow Finishes
Home Schedule
Tomorrow Quigley's Fighting Baseball team from St. Mary's, Kansas will appear on the local diamond. That means that there will be a large base game on McCook Wednesday afternoon, May 22, 1912.
Mahoneydis one of the three greatest amateur pitchers in Kansas and has always given the Kansas batters more that their share of trouble. In the game on McCook last year he not only defeated the Jayhawks 8 to 2 but allowed two hits and fanned twelve men.
This year Kansas has a better team thananytime in the past five years. St. Mary's has lost one or two of her old stars but is still very much in the ring. The game promises to be a great battle from start to finish.
For many years Kansas and the Saints have battled for baseball supremacy, and to give the Saints their dues, Kansas has been a class run clan when the series was finished.
It would not be fitting to omit the name of Mahoney, from any baseball story wherein St. Mary's is mentioned.
The game tomorrow will be the last on the local field. Saturday the Jayhawkers play the last game of the 1912 season at St. Marys.

Miss Carrie Watson Remem
bers First Arbor Day at University in 1877
CLASS OF '77 HAD TROUBL
Chemicals Doped Roots of Elm Tree
Then Unknown
Planted—Marvin's Grove Was Then Unknown
The revival of the custom of planting a tree as part of Class Day exercises, reminded Miss Carrie Watson, librarian, of the first Arbor Day at the University, in May. 1877.
"Our class planted the elm," said Miss Watson, "which stands near the walk leading up to Fraser hall. We all made little speeches over it, and each member of the class put in a showful of dirt."
Miss Watson said that the tree which is now standing was not the one the senior class planted and made speeches over. The students of chemistry, whose reputations they as well as now, were like Dogberry's comparisons, odorous, had poured chemicals over the roots of the trees. The seniors planted the tree with appropriate ceremonies, and later the janitor replaced it with an un-chemicaled specimen.
THE START OF MARVIN'S GROVE
IT was at this time also that the
"tree"
THE STATE OF MARVIN'S GROVE
It was at this time also that the trees in Marvin's grove were planted.
"Of course it wasn't Marvin's grove then," said Miss Watson.
"Dean Marvin just told the boys to plant the trees, and the boys dug holes and set out the little saplings.
Now since the trees have grown, it is 'Marvin's Grove.' We seniors said the freshmen planted the evergreens," added Miss Watson.
"After the tree ceremonies," said Miss Watson, "I planted the ivy which grows over the front of Fraser hall, and read a poem. I remember some of the lines were:
'When with this ivy our windows are tressed,
And for us, kind classmates, that elm is blessed.
eem is blessed,
And thicker grows the pine."
EVERYONE MADE SPEECHES
"Yes," answered Miss Watson,
with a humorous twinkle in her eyes.
"Yes, I can remember back as far as
the class of 77 had just ten
members."
EVERYONE MADE SPEECHES
Miss Watson said that in those days every one in the class counted for something. Each one made several speeches, and had an important part in Class Day exercises.
"Can you remember how many were in the class?" asked the reporter, with the best intentions in the world.

JOHNSON'S QUESTIONS MEET WITH DISFAVOR
Many University Professors Think Author Did Not Make His List Fundamental.
DEALS WITH EUROPEAN EVENTS
European College Students Would Stand a Better Chance—American Social Conditions Not the Cause
European College Students Would
It is the opinion of many of the University of Kansas professors, that the questions propounded by Owen Johnson in his novel "Stover at Yale," though they may fair, are not a true index to a man's culture.
It is also their opinion, that it is not the social conditions in other universities that would permit a student of an English or continental university to take foreign courses. The questions, but that it is due to our more utilitarian method of education.
GERMAN STUDENTS MIGHT ANSWER
In the opinion of Dean Templin of the College, "the average German student would pass a better examination on this particular list of questions than his American brother of the same age and school training.
He goes on to say, that the list is pretty searching and a person who could pass a perfect examination on it could work with his general fund of information.
"Very few people could, in fact I do not know of any one I would expect to do it. On the other hand, I do not think anyone should feel chagrined if he could not answer more than fifty per cent. of the questions."
Prof. F. W. Blackmar, when shown the questions, said in furtherance of his remarks a few days ago, "A few of the questions are fundamental and a man could not claim to be cultured without a knowledge of them, but a man fail to answer a number of them without being classed with the uncultured.
CULTURE NOT MEASURED BY BUSHEL
"A graduate of a German university might answer all the questions and many more along the same line, but as far as my observation goes, the American collegian is much more cultured than the German. A list of test questions of the German are not required because can not be measured by the bushel or reduced to a mathematical test."
DEAL WITH EUROPEAN LIFE.
Prof. C. D. Aykstra approached the subject from a different angle. He thinks that the questions are more fair for students of Europe as the questions deal almost entirely with classical subjec- tions of European institutions and history.
He also brought out the point that if a college education really filled its mission, a man should be able to pass a better examination ten years after he was through on the day he gets his degree.

ARE TOO INDIVIDUALISTIC.
"the questions are too individualistic," said Prof. W. H. Johnson of the department of English and a classmate of Owen Johnson.
"Some of the questions should and ought to be familiar to all, but it is a man's privilege to be ignorant along with he is proficient in certain other lines."

THE UNIVERSITY IN A NUT
The students at the University of Wisconsin have undertaken another activity that well might be followed by the students here. It is a broad way of showing one of the relations of the state university to the people of the state by a scientific exhibition in a nutshell, of the work that the University is doing.
"The University in a Nutshell." Such is the slogan which the administrative board of the University of Wisconsin exposition adopted as the best illustrative phrase for its most important student undertaking—a university exposition.
Thousands of feet of floor space in the gymnasium, the armory and the new athletic annex were set aside to furnish room for the proper staging of the exhibits. The exposition was held under the auspices of the Students' Union, the administrative board consisting of about twenty-five students. Each of about seventy departments had an exhibit, prepared by a senior student and six assistants. In these exhibits as a whole the entire activity of the university was reflected.
Germs played no small part in the exposition. There were local germs and germs from Chicago, Milwaukee and other large cities. Plates were exposed on street corners in Chicago and Milwaukee before the exposition. There also was shown a specimen of the kissing germ.
The literary department showed an open-air theater with a sixteenth century stage. The horticultural exhibit consisted in part of a miniature orchard containing trees, houses and fields and the commerce department including business methods and systems—Chicago Record Herald.
THE CAMERA
A young woman of well known family
A young woman of well known family who has been pestered by publicity was photographed at the Washington horse show. The instant was one when the camera's accuracy is in effect inferior and the rider's violent taken is as ludicrous as an excerpt dragged from its context in a sneech.
What the eye sees at any instant it merges with what preceded and what follows. All is softened. The eye gets general impressions rather than sharp details. The camera gets the details. A laughing woman is a joy to the eye. She is a horror, usually, in the camera.
The young woman, finding the photo-raph printed, refused to ride at the show.
it is easy to understand and sympathize with such sensitivity. If it were to be published that "Miss" appeared striding like a grenadier and shouting like an Apache, mouth open and teeth flashing, her entire face distorted in her expression, she would have been there would be a general disposition to rehabilitate such freedom of description.
When the too truthful or untruthful camera presents a picture of a young woman apparently doing these very simple things, it will be at all, the results are about the same.
The snap shot is no friend of youth und beauty.—Exchange.
SNOBBISHNESS AT COLLEGE.
A good many writers have said things about social conditions in American colleges, but none of them has made a deeper impression than Mr. Owen Johnson with his "Stover at Yale."
When a discussion of this kind begins one usually says that there are snobs everywhere and always in later life as well as among college boys. This nearly ignores the real point at issue, which we take to be this: Are not social honors and social disappointments more keenly felt among college students than among college boys? Is this due solely to the fact that the boys are young? Or is it due partly to the way in which colleges have organized their society?
Reports from New Haven say that a good many Yale men, otherwise sensible, pass their last college year in disappointment at their failure to make Bones and Keys. There is nothing quite like this among grownups. Have you ever met anybody whose life was blighted because he or she was not a member of the Knickerbocker, Union or Colony Club? In this question we have hinted our solution of the college society problem. It is this: Reduce the membership of the Yale senior societies, for example, until it bears the same relation .o the whole class that the membership of the three clubs above-mentioned does to the adult population of New York.
Or else this: Assemble the leading men of New York in Madison Square, have them wait there until a select few have been "tapped" by members of the Union or the Knickerbocker, and then notice whether social conditions in New York approximate those at New Haven.—New York Globe.
AS IT IS AT YALE
Statistics have been compiled for the Courant to show the ultimate effect of proms.
Percentage of men who later marry the girl they have at the prom in the sophomore year, 8 per cent; junior year, 15 per cent; senior year, 27 per cent.
Percentage of men to marry having a different girl each year. Different girl each year, 4 per cent. (Evil effects of fickleness)
Percentage of men to marry having the same girl all three years; same girl all three years, 76 per cent. (Shows advantage of constancy.)
Percentage of men who marry other man's girls, 7 per cent. (We are 58%).
By means of the above figures you will be able to determine just what your chances are. But do not leave it to Fate. In matters of this sort a great deal depends upon individual effort. —Yale Courant.

DOTHEBOYS HALL
Mrs. Squeers stood at one of the desks, presiding over an immense basin of brimstone and treacle, of which delicious compound she administraced a large installment to each boy in succession, using for rhe purpose a common wooden spoon, which might have been originally manufactured for some gigantic top, and which widened every young gentleman's mouth considerably, they being all obliged, under heavy corporal penalties, to take in the whole of the bowl at a gulp.
By Charles Dickens
There was a long row of boys waiting, with countenances of no pleasant anticipation, to be trealed, and another file who had just escaped from the infliction, making a variety of wry mouth indicative of anything but satisfaction. The whole人 attiried in such manner, ill equipped with heavy armaments, as would have been irresistibly ridiculous, but for the foul appearance of dirt, disorder, and disease, with which they were associated.
"Just over," said Mrs. Squeers, choking the last boy in her hurry, and tapping the crown of his head with the wooden spoon to restore him. "Here, you Smike! take away now. Look sharp!"
"Now," said Squeers, giving the desk a great rap with his cane, which made half the little boys nearly jump out of their boots, "is that business over?"
Smike shuffled out with the basin, and Mrs. Squeers, having called up a little boy with a curly head, wiped her hands upon it, hurried after him into a species of washhouse, where he found a large kettle, together with a number of little wooden bowls which were arranged upon a board.
Into these bowls Mrs. Squeers, assisted by the hungry servant, poured a brown composition which looked like diluted pinchouts without the covers, and was called porridge. A minute wedge of brown bread was inserted in each bowl; and when they had eaten their porridge by means of the bread, the boys ate it with their hands and had finished their breakfast; whereupon Mr. Squeers said, in a solemn voice, "For what we have received, may the Lord make us truly thankful" and went away to his own.
After some half-hour's delay, Mr. Squeers reappeared, and the boys took their places and their books, of which latter commodity the average might be about one to eight learners. A few minutes having elapsed, during which Mr. Squeers looked very profound, as if he had a perfect understanding of all the books, and could say every word of their contents by heart if he only chose to take the trouble, that gentleman called up the first class.
Obedient to this summons, there ranged themselves in front of the schoolmaster's desk half-a dozen scarecrows, out at knees and elbows, of whom placed a torn and filthy book beneath his learned eye.
"This is the first class in English spelling an philosophy, Nickley," said Squeers, beckoning Nicholas to stand behind him. "We'll get up a Latin one, and hand that over to You now, then, where's the first boy?"
"Please, sir, he's cleaning the back-barrier window," said the temporary guard.
"So he is, to be sure!" rejoined Squeers. "We go upon the practical mode of teaching, Nickley—the regular education system. C-l-e-a-n, clean; verb active, to make bright, to scout. W-l-i-n, winn; d-e-r, der, winder; a caementer of the book he does and goes it. It's just the same principle as the use of the globes. Where's the second boy?"
"Please, sir, he's weeding the garden," replied a small voice.
"It's a very useful one, at any rate," answered Nicholas, signifie-
"To be sure," said Squeers, by no means disconcerted, so he is! 'o B-0; t-b-t, tin, bottin, n-e-y, ney, bottine; noun substantive, a bottine of plants. When he has learned that bottiniya moans a knowledge of that plant, that's 'em. That's our system, Nickley; what do you think of it?"
"I believe you," rejoined Squeers, not remarking the emphasis of his usher. "Third boy, what a horse?" "A boot bit," said the boy.
"So it is," said Squeers. "Ain't it, Nickley."
"I believe there is no doubt of that sir," answered Nicholas.
"Of course there isn't!" said Squeers. "A horse is a quadruped, and a quadruped's Latin for beast, as someone that's strong through gryphs."
everybody that's gone through grammar knows, or else where's the use of having grammars at all?" "Where, indeed?" said Nicholas, abstractedly.
"As you are perfect in that," resumed Squeers, turning to the boy, "go and look after mine; and rub him down well, or I'll rub you down. The rest of the class go and draw water up, till somebody tells you to leave off; for it's washing-day to morrow, and they want the coppers filled." So saying, he dismissed the first class to their experiment in practical philosophy, and eyed Nicholas with a look, half-cunning and half-doubtful, as if he were not altogether certain what he might think of him by this time. "That's the way we teach school here, Nickley," he said, after
that's the 'why' whywd edit for a house, Nickley's, he said, after a pause.
THE COLLEGE MAN
DEVISES SHORT CUTS
The Self-Made Merchant Asseribed It to His Laxiness But the Salary Was Raised at Every Step.
From Letters of a Self-Made Merchant to His Son.
That sporty way of answering, as if he was closing a bet, made me surer than ever that he was not cut out for a butcher. But I told him, and I insisted on seeing the foreman. I sent word by another route to see that he got plenty to do.
I forgot all about Jim until about three months later, when his name was handed up to me for a new place and a raise in pay. It seemed that he had sort of abolished his job. After he had rolled roaring machines awhile, and the sport had ground down one of his shoulders a couple of inches lower than the other, he got to scheming around for a way to make the work easier, and he hit on an idea of a sort of overhead railroad system, by which the barrels could be swung out of the storerooms and run right along into the cars, and two or three men could do the work of a gang. It was just as I thought. Jim was lazy, but he had put the house in the way of saving so much money that I couldn't fire him. So I raised a gun, a clock, a timekeeper and checker, Jim kept at this for three or four months, until his feet began to hurt him, I guess, and then he was out of a job again. It seems he had heard something of a new machine for registering the men, that did away with most of the timekeepers except the fellows who watched the machines, and he kept after the superintendent until he got him to put them in. Of course he claimed a raise again for affecting cush a saving, and we just had to allow it.
I was beginning to take an interest in Jim, so I brought him up into the office and set him to copying circular letters. That was just before the general adoption of typewriters, when they were still in the experimental stage. But Jim hadn't been in the office plugging away at the letters for a month before he had the writer's cramp, and began nosing around again. The first thing I knew he was sighing the agents for the new typewiring machine on to me, and he kept them pounding away until they had made me give them a trial. Then it was all up with Mr. Jim's job again. I raised his salary without his asking for it this time, and put him out on the road to introduce a new product that we were making—heef extract.
Jim made two trips without selling enough to keep them working overtime at the factory, and then he came into my office with a long story about how we were doing it all wrong. Said we ought to go for the consumer by advertising, and make the trade come to us. instead of chasing it up.
That was so like Jim that I just laughed at first; besides, that sort of advertising was a pretty new thing then, and I was one of the old-timers who didn't take any steak in it. But Jim always took all his trips, and finally I took him off the road and told him to go ahead and try it it in a small way.
The zoology students of Antioch College enjoyed a snake feast recently and now live in mortal fear of the results. The boys caught a large black-snake and skinned it. Instead of studying it they decided to have a snake feast. The reptile was soaked in salt water and cooked. The boys were afraid of snakes. Other students learning of the dinner told the boys they would become ill and might die. As a result they are fearful of the consequences.
The undergraduates of Yale have been making fun of the senior societies and their "tap day" exercises by going through a parody of the stunts.
No capital earns such interest at personal culture—President Eliot.

UNIVERSITY DINNER BEGAN IN EIGHTIES
Time and Purpose of First Alnmni Dinner Is Not Known
HAS KNOWN MANY CHANGES
1000 Guests Expected This Year-
Given in Gym—Will be Served
by University Women.
One of the distinctive features of commencement time, at the University of Kansas, is the "University Dinner," given each year for the faculty and alumni, on Wednesday of commencement week in Robinson Gymnasium.
The beginning of the custom of having an annual banquet for the faculty and alumni began in the eighties. The time and purpose of the first dinner is not exactly known, but for many years it was known as the "Alumni Dinner" and was planned by the alumni.
When it was known as the Alumni Dinner, each one who attended paid for his plate and in this way the expenses were defrayed; finally in 1889 Dr. Snow got the regents to set aside some money to pay the expenses of a dinner for the faculty and alumni, at commencement time. From this time on it was known as the University Dinner.
TO LET OLD BOYS GET TOGETHER
The purpose of this dinner is sort of re-union of old students.
This year 1000 guests are expected.
The dinner is served in the big room on
the first floor of Robinson Gymnasium.
There is one hundred feet long. The dinner
is prepared in the small rooms at each
end of the first floor of the gymnasium.
SERVED BY UNIVERSITY WOMEN
These rooms are furnished with up-to-date kitchen utensils and preparation for the dinner is began two days before hand.
The dinner is prepared by a local caterer and thirty assistants. It is served by University young women. There are nine waiters to each table under the supervision of two head waiters who work as instructors directed by two women of the faculty.
The arrangements for the commencement dinner are in charge of the University Dinner committee assisted by the University Executive Committee
EQUIPMENT BELONGS TO ALUMNI
The entire equipment, including, tables, linen, china, silver ware, and kitchen utensils, is owned by the Alumni Association.
MOVED FROM PLACE TO FLACE
Many interesting incidents have happened in connection with this dinner; The first few dinners were under the caterership of Dean Sayre at that time Dean Sayre was considered the best caterer on the Hill. The caterer job as all other positions in the preparation of this event are honorary and are passed around among members of the faculty.
The first place of the dinner was in the basement of Snow Hall then it was moved to the top floor of Spooner Library. After a time the attendance grew so large that a tent was pitched on the campus in front of Fraser Hall,
In June, 1903 the dinner was served in the Museum. It continued to be held here until 1907 when it was held in Fowler Shops. Upon the completion of the Gymn萨ma it was taken there and has been given there ever since.
THE SCARE OF 1903
In 1903 Professor Harworth was caterer during flood time at Lawrence and the food supply of the town became very low. It seemed that the faculty and alumni would have to fast another year. Fortunately, however, just the day before the dinner'was served, a train reached Lawrence from Kansas City and brought several carloads of provisions.
Professor Haworth in telling of his experiences as caterer, paid great tribute to the K. U. women who helped him serve.
He said, "K. U. girls make the best waiters in the world. They work so smoothly During my time as caterer I don't think that one of the waiters dropped as much as a spoon."

LAST OF CO-EDUCATION
No More Women Will be Graduated From Wesleyan
The official boycott on the young women at Wesleyan University, started twenty years ago as a protest against the presence of the women students, was raised last week. The men of the senior class voted to ask the members of the fair sex to join with them in the class day exercises at commencement.
Co-education was started at Wesleyan in 1786, and for the first fifteen years there was no friction. Later, however, the men began to rebel, and adopted the boycott as the best means of voicing their disapproval.
The result was that three years ago the trustees voted to abolish co-education in 1912, and consequently the young young women who are to be graduated from Wesleyan in June will be the last graduate from a degree from the Methodist institution.
The boycott of the young women has always been faithfully carried out by the male students. As this is the last year of co-education, however, the seniors thought it well to extend the olive branch to the girls.
State Entomologists Co-operate With Kansas Fruit Growers
FIGHT SAN JOSE SCALE
Due to violating state law, allowing officers to spray infested trees, a warrant was issued a few weeks ago for Mr. Stevens Balch by Judge Thomas C. Wilson.
---
Prof. S. J. Hunter, state entomologist of the University and Mr. Walter T. Emery, assistant to the state entomologist have said that they, on several occasions tried to spray the orchard of Mr. Balch since it is infested with San Jose scale but they have at different times been put off and on April 26, Mr. Emery was ordered off the place. It is due to such opposition on part of different individuals that the San Jose scale has spread to 300 or 400 orchards within the last two years when first the sheep were shipped in on nursery stocks. Many of the farmers of Sedgwick county, however have co-operated with Mr. Hunter in the endeavor to save their fruit trees by spraying whenever the scale was in evidence.
According to Mr. Emery the vicinity around Wichita is the only locality in Kansas where the San Jose case has spread about. But nevertheless thirteen counties have formed an association whereby they can co-operate in their endeavors to protect their orchards since it is evident there would be an enormous financial loss to the state were the San Jose scale permitted to spread.
It is to stop such ravages as this, that Kansas State Entomological commission was formed. The commission desires to work with the fruit growers for their best interests and its work is conducted on a non-personal plan.

HOW TO FIND YOUR FAVORITE AUTHOR
The system of classification in use at the University Library is known as the dictionary catalog system. The books are classified according to the "Decimal Classification and Relative Index," by Melvil Dewey of Amherst College.
There are ten main classes of subjects which include all the books in the building. These classes are $a_{3}$ follows;
0—General Works.
Books in Library Are Classi
fied According to Dictionary Catalog System
6—Useful Arts.
7—Fine Arts.
8—Literature.
9—History.
Under these main divisions are many subdivisions. Each author is listed according to the Cutter system, that is for instance a book by an author by the name of Clark would have the number 23.1 clar and the book would be in the main division of English literature, which would be English modern or Hindu ancient or some such group.
In this manner by reference to the catalog one can find the number of any book he wishes, and with the number it is an easy matter to go to the stacks and find the book.

Cup While Others Sniff at an Ordinary Rememberance.
The the class of 1911 meets at the University for its first reunion week after next, it will find itself confronted by an issue which will make the session of more than ordinary interest. The issue will be to determine what the class is going to do for the class baby, whose formal application for the position was received this morning by J. W. Murray, permanent secretary of the class.
Lois Emma Baer, whose father is Roy H. Baer, a graduate of the School of Law last year, was born at Ness City, April 12. It was agreed last year that the first child born to a member of the class should become the little Miss Baer, who believed that little Miss Baer will have no rival claimant for the class honor.
THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.
Just how the class will express its appreciation to Miss Baer for allying herself with it has not been determined. About every other member approached says "Give her a loving cup." But some of the members rebel at the idea of a loving cup. They say that a loving cup is the most useless thing on earth, and that one can get a loving cup for almost anything. "Something more original than a loving cup" is their demand. This is the issue the class will have to settle at its reunion. Roy H. Baer was married shortly after his graduation last June. He is practicing law at Ness City.
MAY OREAD APPEARS IN BEAUTIFUL COVER
Although Somewhat Thin the Mag Contains Considerable Good Reading Matter
The Oread Magazine for May is out and is on sale today. It is a trifle thin, this month, but as is explained editorially all the available literary on the Hill will be found between its covers. The first story, and the best one, is a football tale by Earl Ammons. It covers the ineligibilities and subsequent white-washing of a football star. The ending of the story is weak.
(BY GROUCHY GILIHAN)
"Rope Burn" by Guy Von Schrillz, is a well told yarn of a western cowboy and his love for a girl whom, he rather unnecessarily suspects of having siced her dog on him. But for a tew item, the story is good. It is the most interesting stuff in the book, aside from the local interest of Ammons' story.
"His Last Scool" is a graphically descriptive story of the forest fires at Lake Porcupine ne last summer. Jack Williams, the author, underwent the experiences described and he certainly makes one appreciate the temperature of a cake of ice. The tragic death of a victim in the fire is at once unnecessary and yet it serves in a measure to bring out the horror of the fire.
"The Choice," by Ruth Van Doren is delightfully plotless, but it is a vivid, although mixed-up, bit of character sketching. "Chapel-cut Chuckels" by Earl Potter, after the pest pocket essential crimes of George Fitch, are rarely so very lists of fancy ones, only a little stunned in spets. "Penneck Gits Even" is a dialect story by Asher Hobson. It shows that careful and painstaking work has been spent on it. The plot is ingenious and except for the ase eand readiness with which the characters change their opinion and prejudices, it is consistent. 'For Every Idle Word' is by El himself. It is rather mixed up and pointless from a technical point of view, but is a good story, interesting. The moral is apparent and is a useful one to consider.
"Mosaics," by Miriam Smyth.
CHANCELLOR FRANK STRONG Who is Completing His Tenth Year of Service for Kansas and the University
Willard Wattles, a former student and instructor at the University has printed "A Page from America's Psaler." It is a poem of social problems in America today, and is a call for a better times. "How de Debil he Beat Bobtail" is a story after the Uncle Remus school. In it Mi S Hermione Sterling writes a charming biography of folk-lore told in amusing but monotonous manner, which is characteristic of the old dark story teller who is depicted.
CLIFFORD F. ROYER
PLEASES AUDIENCE
Mr. Royer's voice is a rich, full, resonant tenor and showed much careful training. His interpretations were good and the audience was well pleased. His accompaniments played by Miss Etta Hess were especially well rendered.
The Song Recital by Clifford F. Royer, given in Frasier Hall last night was well attended. The Program con- lined with songs of Italian, German and English songs.

ELECTRIACL BUILDS DYNAMO
Beta Theta Pi will give an informal dancing party Friday, May 31 at the chapter house.
R. W. Budd Has Been Spending Sparr Time on Electrical Appatus.
Roy W. Budd, a junior electrical engineer is building a dynamo at the Fowler Shops.
Besides his labor on the machine he has had to spend only thirty-six dollars for material where as a dynamo compactor would cost about eighty-five dollars.
Mr. Budd has been working on the dynamo most of his spure time this year and has made all its parts.
"When completed the dynamo will be placed in a shop at Kansas City, Missouri, his cousin, Arthur Upton, are associated together in the electrical business.
Washburn Student Council Dies. The movement for a Student Council at Washburn which was so enthusiastically pushed by the student body a short time ago may die for lack of faculty support.
The proposed constitution was submitted to the faculty May 2, but as yet no action has been taken by them, and it is now so late in the year, that an organization probably will not be perfected this spring .
ELECTS NEW OFFICERS
Equal Suffrage League Chooses New Cabinet-Officers' Conference This Evening

Mr. Owens comes from the State Equal Franchise headquarters at Topke, where she is in charge of a state campaign to organize the counties and districts for suffrage.
MOTHER EARTH WAS SHAKING LAST NIGHT
Seismograph Registered Largest Quake of Year Between 9 and 10 o'clock
The preliminary tremor began at 9 o'clock and the main wave at 9:36. The whole disturbance lasted one hour and ten minutes.
The seismograph in the basement of Fraser Hall registered an earthquake last night. This quake is the largest one that has been registered this year.
Professor Cady said that it was impossible to tell from what direction the disturbance came, but that the intensity showed it was about 6,400 miles from here. A seismograph at Cleveland, Ohio registered an earthquake last night at 9:15 but was unable to tell the direction of the disturbance According to Professor Cady the difference in time between the two readings was due to the difference in the sensitivity of the two seismographs. The one used here at the University is of a different make than the one at Cleveland and is more sensitive.

The Weather.
The meter twins were both very happy this morning for they believed that there is some possibility of showers for tomorrow. Their little white house gets rather hot these days and a shower would suit perfectly.

Genius is nothing but labor and diligence—Hogarth.
No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself.—Emerson.
The news that the text books take on value with age will come a surprise to the local dealers in second hand stores.
THE COTTONWOOD
In these Aeolius times when the atmosphere of a half dozen western states is changing places, the cottonwood tree ripens its tiny winged seeds and sows them far and wide over the western country.
The cottonwood is more emblematic of Kansas and its people than the sunflower itself. The sunflower does not appear until the summer is nearly gone, whereas the cottonwood, like most Kansas people is always first in getting its work in the public eye. Its leaves quiver in the slightest breeze, it is never asleep. No trend of popular opinion is too tight to be noticed by the alert citizen of Kansas.
Then too, the cottonwood, though so responsive to each passing breeze is of a texture stout and durable enough to resist the parching heat of summer, the blistering drought and the premature frosts of early autumn. In a like manner the Kansas man is immune to hardship, the terrors of drouth, the sourge of famine, and the ruin of flood-swollen rivers. He can adapt himself to any climate, succeed equally well in barren desert, fertile valley or brick-pavemented city. So the cottonwood flourishes wherever the panting winds send the feathery little seed, on rocky bluff, barren hilltop swampy river bottom, or fertile prairie.
But like the Kansan, who flourishes at his best on his native prairie, the cottonwood grows tallest alone on the level, black-soiled upland where his roots sink deep in the fertile loam and he towers wide-armed and unshaded into the wind-swept blue, while his leaves sing incessantly to the sweep of the never dying breezes.
It is about time for room mates to "square-up" accounts and trade back clothes. There will be enough questions to answer this summer; no need to spring anything new on the home-folks.
Have you noticed how fine the milk is getting since the recent investigation and series of tests have been started? Cream isn't in it.
It has been announced that on Students' Day full sway will be given to the student-body. They may rectify wrongs then, "view with alarm" and "point with pride," but won't some outsider ask himself if this isn't a queer bunch of University students that don't hold full saw all the time and take the liberty to view things with alarm at any time the pleasure seizes them. Certainly, the students always point with pride to the various institutions about the campus on all public occasions.
JUST DOGGEREL, WE ADMIT IT
'Twas half past twelve, and (what do you think)
Susie, the dog, and the maltese cat—Side by side in their Paych room sat;
Nor one nor t'other had slept a wink! They appeared to know as sure as fate
There was going to be a quiz at eight.
And if they failed, Dockeray did state.
As he quietly closed their tiny gate, There'll be a sale at an early date. Susie, the dog, went "Bow-wow-wow!"
And the maltese cat replied "Meeow!"
Then all was quiet an hour or so, And both, their lessons tried to know, While the Physic's Clock in its lofty place
Up with its hands before its face,
For it always dreaded to see students
sad
(Now mind I'm only telling you What the Physics' Clock declares I true).
Now mind I'm only telling you
The Maltese cat looked very blue,
And wailed, "Oh, dear! what shall we
do?"
But the learned dog in her wiser way
Said, "we'll open the door and run
away."
So Susie, the dog, and the Maltese cat
Wallowed this way and tumbled that Employing every tooth and claw
und, oh! how quickly and proudly they flew!
When the lever came up and they left K. U.
Next morning where the two had sat They found no trace of dog or cat; And some folks think until this day That burglars stole that pair away! But the truth about the cat and pup Is this: They kept their lessons up!
THIS WILL PLEASE THE WOMEN
"Do girls do as well in college as boys?"
"As well or better."
"Indeed? And how do you account for that?"
"Well, they have more opportunities to study, for one thing. A girl doesn't have to put in a lot of time coloring a meerschau pipe."—Kansas City Journal.
Professor Dyche has been busy making the farmers over the state smile by filling their ponds with fish. He could perhaps make the students here and the prospective summer student smile also by planting a generous "crop" in Potter Lake. If the lake is no longer to serve as a swimin' hole, it would at least make a good fishin' place and picnic grounds for anglers.
TWO MINUTES WITH
CAMPUS CELEBRITIES
Q. —"Good morning, Mr. Rice. Awful windy, isn't it? Well, its here anything new or startling around the Physics Department?"
A. —I won't have anything to do with the Daily Kansan. I think they have slandered us shamefully."
A—"I said I wouldn't talk to you."
Q—"Do you believe in the Homo
Diluvii Testis theory?"
Q. ——The Daily Kauan sent me over to see if I could get hold of a little news of the Physic Clock or something to get them to get to a few jokes about the P. C."
Q. —"Is it true that the works of he clock are full of pigeons?"
A. —“What do you want?”
Q. "Are you any relation to H. A.
Rice, doctor?"
Q. “About how many molecules are there in a doughnut, Doctor?”
A. ___
Q. "Are you paid extra for winding the P, C, Mr. Rice?"
Q. "There is a report, doctor, that you drink a pint of—er—liquid air every night without hurting you at all." A. "I refuse to talk. It's thirty feet from this window to the ground. I wear a number eight shoe."
A lazy man is of no more use than a dead man, and he takes up more room—O. S. Marden.
HIGH SCHOOL TENNIS PLAY
ERS HAD LEEWAY
To the Kansan:
The editorial on "Courtesy" which appeared in yesterday's Kansan requires but a statement of fact to answer the question put in the concluding paragraph. The writer happened to be on the courts from 4:30 to 6 o'clock on both days of the tennis tournament and can therefore vouch for the following facts—all of which have been corroborated by the captain of the University team who had charge of the matches.
Sometime between half past four and five several members of the tennis club came down to their courts and found one of the four usable courts being played on. Therefore they began a game. A little later one of the judges said there was to be another match of doubles played and the question arose as to where it should take place. One of the so-called "faculty players" asked very pointedly whether the court in question was wanted and was told very coutheously that since the other courts were not in use the set could as well be played elsewhere.
On the second afternoon (Saturday) the writer saw two of the faculty players voluntarily give up the better of the two courts and retire to the other so that the finals in singles might be played more satisfactorily. Now on which afternoon was the discourtesy shown?
In further explanation it might be added that the south courts are kept up by private subscription by a group of men most of whom happen to be faculty members. These courts were turned over for the tournament to be used as auxiliary courts when the court below Mr. Hamilton's residence and the north courts were in use. Two of these three courts were quite usable. One of these University courts was used for the tournament play and a second was used but infrequently. And finally no member of the faculty went upon any of the courts while high school boys were using them and therefore could not "have compelled the high school players to vacate."
Very truly,
C. A. Dykstra.
Very truly,
STUDENT OPINION
A PLEA FOR THE MUSICIANS
The editor is not responsible for the views expressed here. Communications must be signed as an defense of good faith.
Kansas University undoubtedly needs a new Fine Arts building and every University student should give his aid toward obtaining it. The present building, "Old North College" is a disgrace to the University and to the State of Kansas. Its extreme old age and rapid decay is plain to see. No amount of remodeling and patching can ever mend its facade, but its ruined wind wheels through its broken panes and thin walls and as a result many of its inmates go to bed with pneumonia. In extreme weather it freezes up entirely and no one, not even the janitor dares enter.
To the Daily Kansan:
It is then that those Fine Arts students who are not suffering with colds, meet in different homes throughout the city for their classes. What a deplorable condition this is!
Visitors who are shown to this "office" make a quick retreat and no one enters who does not have business of extreme importance.
In rainy weather, teachers discover their pianos warped and blistered from a leak in the ceiling and often great stacks of music are ruined.
An old chair, a scarred desk and a rickety table furnish the so-called office and waiting-room combined. A clock on the wall almost as old as North College itself is too feeble to tell the time of day.
The location of the present Fine Arts school is also a great disadvantage to its students. It is a good fifteen minutes' walk from North College to the hill proper and at least a half-hour's walk from Dick's building, downtown another part of the school is sited beneath consequence the Fine Arts students can seldom attend chapel and often they are late to their college classes.
Their center of work is so far away from the University that they miss most of the College life.. So isolated are they from their fellow- students, that they often suffer loneliness. Sometimes they are called exclusive by some misled College student and if so whose is the blame?
Is it for these accommodations and these conditions that the Fine Arts students pay their large quarterly check? Is it for this that fathers and mothers sacrifice to send them to the University? If so, it is not
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
that the finest music in the room is that which streams out to the ear of the spirit in many an exquisite strain of voice. We need an environment the opposite wall. Every volume there is an instrument which some meloist of the mind created and set vibrating with a simple rhythm of perfume or a star shakes out its light. Only listen, and they soothe all care, as though the silken-soft leaves of flowers made vocal and soured into the ear.
strange that this department does not grow as rapidly as it should and that many leave at the end of a year not to return. Surely it is time for the students of the University, its friends and the people of Kansas to protest and demand that "Old North College" be either preserved as a relic of antiquity or torn to the ground.
-JAMES LANE ALLEN.
THE RELATION OF THE COLLEGE TO BUSINESS
Jim, the Collegian, Took a Step Forward for the Self-Mude Merchant and Made Money
From "The Letters of a Self-Made Merchant to His Son," by George Horace Lorimer
From "The Letters of a Soft Made Morgan"
Jim pretty nearly seized me to death
that first year. At last he had got
into something that he took an interest
—in spending money—and he fairly
wallowed in it. Used to lay awake
night, thinking up new ways of getting
rid of the old man's profits. And he
found them. Seemed as if I couldn't
get away from Graham's Extract,
and whenever I saw it I gagged, for I knew
it was costing me the money that wasn't
there. He just told me to draw in my horns Jim talked to me, and showed me where there was a fortune waiting for me just around the corner.
Graham's Extract started out by being something that you could make beef-tae out of—that was all. But before Jim had been fooling with it a month he got his girl to think up a hundred different ways in which it could be used, and had advertised them all. It seemed there was nothing you could cook that didn't need a dash of it. He kept me between a chill and a a sweat all the time. Sometimes, but not often, I just had to grin at his foolishness. I remember one picture he got out showing sixteen cows standing between something that looked like a letter press, and telling how every pound or so of Graham's Extract contained the juice squeezed from a herd of zebras, an explorer started on North Pole. Him word seemed him a case of exposure, and then advertisue that it was the great heat maker of cold climates; and if some other fellow started across Africa he sent him a case too, and advertised what a bully drink it was served up with a little ice.
He broke out in a new place every day, and every time he broke out it cost the house money. Finally, I made up my mind to swallow the loss, and Mister Jim was just about to lose his job sure enough, when the orders for Extract began to look up, and he got a repreieve; then he began to make expenses, and he got a pardon; and finally a rush came that left him high and dry in a permanent place. Jim was all right in his way, and I hadn't been broad-gauged enough to see that it was a better way.
That was where I caught the connection between a college education and business. I've always made it a rule to buy brains, and I've learned now that the better trained they are the faster they find reasons for getting their salaries raised. The fellow who hasn't had the training may be just as smart, but he's apt to paw the air when he's reaching for ideas.
According to a statement issued recently, Harvard University has stocks and bonds valued at $17,362,-797. The total of its productive funds is placed at $25,000,000 which gives it an income of $2,500,000.
Gertrude—When Tom asked you for a kiss, last night did you give him glue?
Gonevele—No, but I lent him some.
Manager—Did Smith pay any atter to you when you tried to collect the bill?
—Chaparral.
Clerk--Yes, but that was all, sir.
—Chaparral.
Optimist—Silence is golden.
Pessimist—Taint, cause if it was you could make it jingle; then you wouldn't have it.
—Chaparral.
Cheerfulness is the best promote of health.—Addison.

about attending the University of Kansas is that the student also has the privilege of attending Laurence typical old New England town in a Middle West setting, combining in just proportion the beauty and quiet of a charming residence city with the initiative and bustle of a live business center. It thus has the perfection of attractiveness that appeals to youth. Attend Lawrence four years and you can never forget the place where center the historic associations of Kansas the Athens of Kansas.

"IDEAS OF IDEAL QUIZ" BY FACULTY
Some Prefer Written, Others Oral and Some Are
Silent
We have ideals in all phases of life and even in quizzes the heads of departments have their ideal.
"I guess," said Dean Templin, "the ideal quiz is the kind Saint Peter is going to give us when we get to the gate. But," he continued, "I hope Saint Peter will give me a pad of paper and plenty of time."
While Dean Templin wants a written quiz for himself he went on to say that he thought the average between the two methods, written and oral, to be the best system of quizzing.
Professor Stevens laughed, "No," he said, "I want mine oral. The best way it seems to me is the system they use in Germany, where the final examination is practically a debate between the student and the professor."
Dean Blackmar seems to think the ideal impossible of attainment for with a smile and a shrug he said, "I've nothing at all to say."
In an address delivered before the Chicago English Club at a luncheon in the Auditorium Hotel last week Dr. S. H. Clark, dean of oratory at the University of Chicago, decried the fact that people were more interested in baseball than in poetry, and blamed this for the seeming lack of appreciation of the beautiful in life.
THINKS BASEBALL FEVER
DESTROYS POETIC FIRE
Professor Clark also ridiculed the modern interpretation placed upon the works of Shakespeare by the dramatists of today.
"The real beauty that underlies every line of Shakespeare becomes lost when uttered on the stage. Much of the meaning is lost beneath the heavy pall of scenery and the dramatists' efforts to emphasize words and phrases that need no emphasis."
The detestation for hot stuff reckitt rooms seems to be in the air. It began with Professor Carruth and now is has attacked Prof. R. L. Moodie. With his entire division of zoology III he adjourned to the pines north of Administration building one day this week, far away from the disagreeable odor of Snow hall.
PROFESSOR MOODIE HOLDS

PROMINENT PROFESSOR
8157 Among , the prominent outside teachers, that the University of Kansas has secured for the summer session, Professor Frank Justus Miller, Professor of Latin in the University of Chicago is especially worthy of mention. Professor Miller has a national reputation as a Latin teacher and educator. He is the author of the text in Virgil now used in Kansas, and Managing Editor of the Classical Journal. Professor Miller translated the plays of Seneca, and made two dramatizations from Virgil, The Fall of Troy, and The Tragedy of Dido. Professor Miller taught very successfully in the summer school two years ago.

JAYHAWKER CUTS
PLACED ON FILE
11 Present Plans Are Carried Out, University Will Purchase Campus Scenes
If Present Plans Are Carried
The cuts that appeared in the Jayhawker this year probably will be placed on a permanent file at the University, if plans that are being discussed by the business manager of the annual and the University authorities are carried out. The University will purchase those cuts showing scenes about the campus and the pictures of the University buildings, and it is expected that all the pictures of the organizations and the seniors will be left to be filed on University's permanent file of seniors and graduates.
Announcement was made by the business manager before the annual was published that the senior cuts would be returned to the owners, and an effort will be made on the part of the University to obtain these pictures. They would be kept here for use by the Daily Kansan with a promise to mail them to any individual who would want to use his cut at any time.
HICAGO WOMEN THINK
THEY ARE MISTREATED
Women students at the University of Chicago believe they are discriminated against by the institution. They believe that male students get most of the necessities and all the luxuries, while women content themselves with what is left.
These complaints are voiced in a report of the gymnasium committee which is published in the current number, which is published in the current magazine, the University of Chicago Magazine.
The report concludes by an appeal to a generous man or woman to come forward with sufficient funds to remedy these conditions.
The University of Kansas can lay sod for one cent a square foot, where the grading is already done, said John W. Bickel, of Buildings and Grounds yesterday.
the gymnasium floor is under water every time it rains or thaws; that there are but seven shower baths for the entire women student body, and that these usually are out of order; that the dormitories are inadequate and the classrooms are too small to disgrace any humane corporation employing an equal number of women.
GRASS GROWN DIRT AT
1 CENT A SQUARE FOOT
The price of sod alone is ordinarily more that this but we use our own sod and have a special cutting machine with most of the labor of cutting sod.
By cutting the sod in the fall, there will be no bare spot because the roots are left in the ground will grow up again in the spring.
The sod in front of the Administration Building has cost about one cent and a half on account of the grading that had to be done.
Frank F. Rupert, an instructor in Chemistry, left this week for Boston, Mass., where he will take an examination at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for the Ph.D. degree. After receiving his degree he will take a government position as assistant chemist in the Bureau of Agriculture.

Miss Addams Tells Result From the Girls' Sewing
School
At Hull House last week Miss Jane Addams described a new department of the settlement house work from which good results are being obtained. This is the trade school for young girls, who are being instructed in sewing.
"Before this school was instituted," said Miss Addams, "it was customary among the foreign families that make up the bulk of the population in the neighborhood of Hull House to put their daughters to work as soon as they can graduate." He found employment in sweat shops as helpers, beginning at $1 a week
"We saw a great need of training for these girls and a trade school course in dressmaking was inaugurated. The course covered three months and the first class numbered fifteen girls. When we were so well equipped for work with dressmakers that they were enabled to start at from $4 to $5 a week."
VENTILATORS RUSTING AWAY
Large Funnel Shaped Apparatus on
Roof of Fraser Are Worn Out.
Coming up the hill, or in walking about the campus, one has no doubt ootied the large funnel-shaped ventilators on the roof of Fraser Hall. They are always turned away from the wind and so when the wind blows past these ventilators, it creates a vacuum in the enclosed part. By means of this accum the foul air is drawn from the building.
Having withstood the winds and storms many years, these ventilators are gradually rusting away, and falling apart. One already has been blown off. New ventilators will soon take the place of the old ones, still insuring good ventilation.
Three high school students of Chicago, have been expelled for belonging to a secret society.

AMMONS AND BUZICK HIT WELL
The Two Pellet Swaters Hold Up Former Records—Season Closes Saturday with St. Marys Game
Yesterday's base ball defeat by St. Marys may be summed up in two words errors and Mahoney. With, both teams making seven hits spice, a perfectly oiled machine piloted by the Jahvah wripped four run lead from the Jahvah rickets
St. Marys was the first to score, pushing one point over in the first inning. In the second the Jayhawks came back and scored through the efforts of Ammons. After that the Kansasn were held scoreless.
In the third the Quigley athletes slipped another around and two more in the seventh and one in the eighth. Most of the runs were made on the three errors chalked up against the Jay-hawkers.
Mahoney pitched like a real leaguer and, backed by a fighting infield that played errorless ball, he was able to keep the Kansas hits well scattered. For Kansas, Ammons and Buzick were the pellet wallopers, Buzick hitting a thousand. In the seventh and eighth Quigley displayed several high class passes that kept the Kansas fans that they were real swaters. The Kansas aggregation will close the season next Saturday with St. Marys on their own grounds.

FACULTY WILL MAKE FUN
Whether or not Kansas is entered in the Western Conference meet and the Olympic tryouts at Chicago in June depends on the showing of the athletes at the Western Conference meet at Des Moines Saturday. If the Kansas track hopes, Hazen, French, and Murray show any championship tryouts in the Western Conference June 1st and the Olympic tryouts on June 8th. Otherwise the track season for Kansas will close Saturday.
Made Saturday.
Sixteen men will take the trip, the pick of this season's track squad, and as all are in good condition it looks great. The boys' firsts, will be picked up for Kansas.
The men who will make the trip are: Stuckey, D. Davis, Cramer, Grieble, Wilson, Black, Fairchild, G. Smith, Murray, Patterson, Hazen, Perry, C. Woodbury, H. Woodbury, Wood and French.
The nearest competitor for second honors will be Nebraska, she is doped to take the mile, and possibly the half and quarter-mile.
The Jayhawker hopes for second place in this meet are based mainly on grabbing a large supply of firsts and seconds in the individual events. Despite contrary dope, Kansas expects to make a close fight for first in the high jump, two mile and the hurdles.
SIGMA CHI-ALPHA TAU
PLAY FOR FRAT HONORS
The final games for the inter-fraternity baseball championship opened this afternoon between the Sigma Chis and Alpha Taus. Three games will be played and the nine winning two of them will be presented with the championship cup.
Final Inter-Fraternity League Game Opened This Afternoon—Champions Gets Silver Cup
The fraternity games this year, especially in the second division, have been more interesting and have shown better playing than those of previous years. Several tie games were played, one of them being a ten inning draw between the Phi Delta and Sig Alpha. The final decision of this game has never been determined, as the schedule was crowded and a convenient time could not be set in which to play it off.
The games for the championship should be especially interesting as each won the lead of it's division by a narrow margin. The games will be played on the McCook diamond.
BEST COLLEGE COURSE
IS THAT IN ATHLETICS
"I would not exchange the athletic training I received on the Yale field for my best course in college," says Raymond G. Clapp, M.D., professor of physical education and director of studies at the University of Nebraska.
“An athlete,” says Dr. Clapp “develops a spirit of thoroughness and ‘stict-to-i-veness’ that is of inestimable value to him in after life. He has learned to despise a ‘quitter’ and will see the problem solved regardless of the effort necessary to accomplish it.”
Dr. Clapp sums up the chief beneficial effects of athletics as follows:
(a) Better general health.
NEXT
(c) Increased ability to perform mental work.
(b) Increased ability to perform muscular work.

Pennsylvania's Inter-Fraternity Agreement Provides That All Rushing be Confined to the Campus.
Quiz books, 5 for 10c at Keeler's Book Store, 939 Mass—Adj.
Agitation regarding the inter-fraternity rushing agreement has been started anew at the University of Pennsylvania and a meeting of the representatives from twenty-four chapters has been called.
At this meeting it will be determined whether the present plan of "rushing" new members is worthy of carrying out another year.
This plan was adopted last fall by the faterities of Pennsylvania and provides that no student shall be rushed before the opening of college, all rushing must be confined to the campus, no bids ate to be given until the first Monday in December. The men who are bid shall have one week to make answer, and their answer must be in writing.
The objection to the plan is that the rushing season is long. It is objected to by perhaps a majority of the fraternity, and it should be shortened to one month.

The second annual Students' Day exercises were held this morning and contrary to the usual expectation no excessive amount of vituperant and sulphurous powder of reforms advocated, nor was the "poor-down-trodden-belief-himself-student" spirit much in evidence. "Davy" of Oread Mag, fame did endeavor to wax humorous and oratorical at the beginning of his speech, but the mock air of the usual chapel speaker soon wore away and he came down to what he chose to call business.
The exercises were opened by Arch MacKinney, ex-president of the Men's Student Council. He said that it had always been the disagreeable custom of the outgoing president to toot the council's horn as to the work which had been accomplished. He gave a short epitome of the doings of the Council. The main features being: Compilation and the printing rules and regulations governing students, new athletic constitution governing athletics at the University. They are instrumental in holding the football smoker last fall, in which it was shown that there was a real live spirit here at the University. They had gained control of the Student Enterprise Association. Had organized an efficient mode of discipline for the student body and had received excellent commendation from the faculty, especially from Chancellor Strong, on same.
In closing MacKinnon said, "We have done things that are beneficial and perhaps some things that are no. Of course we have made mistakes but they have been snowed under by the good things we have accomplished."
The next speaker, C...M. Coats, president of the Men's Student Council, made a short talk in which he outlined a few details of the Student Enterprise Association. He said he believed that the price of athletic tickets should be raised as the average price in the different schools was from $7.00 to $10.00 each, and were limited strictly to athletic events. He reiterated the fact that athletics receives no appropriation from the State as do other schools and it was exceedingly difficult to keep up the expenses for same. In his closing remarks as president of the Men's Student Council he requested university when they sent home this summer. He said to tell everyone that you had to work like the deuce here—and you do. Don't say what a good time you have, that is only a side issue. "We need more help from the legislature and we will not get it if we keep up this false reputation that there are nothing but drones here," he ended by saying.
Claribel Lupton, as representative and president of the Women's Student Government Association, was the next speaker. She was the only girl speaker on the entire program and she received round after round of applause both before and after her well chosen speech. She told of the work which the W. S. G. A. had already accomplished and the plans which they were advocating for next year. She said that they had established an information bureau last fall for the benefit of the freshmen and that they would continue and this time next year. She said that the discipline of the young men was now entirely in their hands and she called on all of them for assistance and asked that each should make herself feel as if she were an active member of the association and help in the furtherance of its work. She said that they intended to aid in every way the movement for the girl's dormitory and would give another "Circus"
id would give another Circus ext year to raise money for it. Ellis Davidson, as representative rom the College, was the next peaker. He opened his remarks by sking. "Has anyone here seen
Kelly?" He said that this particular "Kelly" was the "Jinx" of the University and he called on all the students and especially the barbs to help drive in the wedges that would squeeze this evil out of existence. He averred that the Jinx was divided into three separate parts; factionalism, lack of organization, and the wrong idea of barbs towards fraternities. He advocated a day set apart for the students of the College the same as the Laws and Engineers have. He said that the barbs were offering the fraternities too much and that they were looked up to a great deal more than they ought to be.
Charles O. Lee spoke for the School of Pharmacy. He said, "People fail to realize the importance of our school. We can't take part in a great many of the activities of the school life because of the fact that our work is crowded too much. We have our share of the athletes, however, and probably would have more if we had more time. I realize that our school needs more organization and I believe when that is brought about we will be in a better position to accomplish more in and for the students. It's glad that the standard in our school is gradually being raised and in two years from now it will require a regular four year's high school course before entrance into the School of Pharmacy is allowed."
"ALAS, POOR HAMLET!" WE'VE KNOWN HIM LONG
Martin K. Thomen was the representative from the School of Engineering. He said that they had very few kicks coming, in fact that they would be extremely happy if it were not for the two old bughears—physics and chemistry. He admitted that through the kicks of the engineers the course in Chemistry II had been cut down from five hours to four but this had only succeeded in allowing them less credit for the work and not eliminating any of the work.
In regard to spirit in the University Thomen said, "Our school may lack spirit for the University but it does not lack spirit for the School of Engineering. If all the schools in the University would get together as a school our school do there would be no lack of the most whole souled loyal spirit."
The only member of the faculty allowed on the platform during the exercises was Uncle Jimmy Green, Dean of the School of Law, friend of the students and the best and most

When the verdict was brought in by the jury and when "Judge" Higgins pronounced the sentence there was a great roaring of wind and the rattling of windows which is supposed to have given the motion the earth when the momentum Riskespear turned over in his grave. The Seismograph, however, recorded no disturbance.
After obtaining the lawful information and after the due examination in the fifth annual trial to which Hamlet has been subjected by the School of Law, the melancholy Dane was at last convicted and sentenced to 2,300 volts, 13 ampères in the electric chair.

C. B. Harrold, in his closing sp ech, amid great flights of oratory extolled the virtues of the jury and implored them to do their duty and convict Hamlet of murder in the first degree. The jury was kept awake during these speeches by repeated rapping on the desk by the "judge."
Ben Jones and Burton Sears were the attorneys for the defense and B. Shim and C. B. Harrold were the prosecuting attorneys. The closing arguments of the attorneys were brief, concise and to the point.
Tennis—C. Burnett, P. B. Nees.
Happy Martindell then made a speech presenting the silver loving cup, which the track team had won in the Kansas-Nebraska meet, to the students of the University. C. M. Kawasaki of the student thanked Mr. Mavris for the track team, and spoke of the high regard which the school held of the team.
The defense brought in the insanity plea and endeavored to prove their point in the cross examination. It was an utter failure.

As he came to the front of the platform he said, "I have always been classed otherwise but now I am glad to be classed with you this morning as a student. I am glad that I can come here to present these symbols of honor to the men this morning. To those who have excelled in athletics it represents not only ability in physical prowess but also in scholarship; the burning of the midnight oil as well as the severe training.
In behalf of the Graduate School, Wilkur E. Tilberg spoke concerning the fact that this school wished to be represented in the activities of the rest of the students. He said that there was no form of enterprise which the graduate students could enter and even representation on the Men's Student Council was denied them.
He then read the following awards:
Football—Ammons, Baird, Bramante,
Davidson, Davis, Delaney, Hell, Frith,
Schabw, C. Woodbury, and Weidlein.
Basket Ball—W. Boehm, C. Greenlees, O. F. Hite, L. L. Smith, Geo Stuckey, and L. V. Brown.
Herbert Maxwell spoke for the school of Medicine. He said that great strides have been made in the past few years in their school and that the standard was exceptionally high as all graduates have successfully passed the state examination. He said that their greatest handicap was the lack of a proper building in which to carry on their work. He took a little slam at the department of journalism when he said that their old building had been taken away from them to give to a paper which persisted in printing April Fool jokes both in and out of season.
Ira Snyder, representing the School of Law said that there was one great evil in the University and that was that the faculty did not take enough interest in the students, that they did not even attend the exercises on Student's Day. He spoke of the fact that the Daily Kanan had better representative student spirit than he did and he commended the Board of Regents in their selection of the head of the department of journalism. He said that traditions were dignified and democratic and that all should endeavor to support them—for instance that the seniors should wear their caps and gowns, especially on Students' Day.

THE EQUAL SUFFRAGE LEAGUE PLANS WORK
State Organizer Talks to Cabinet on Work of League for Summer
At a cabinet conference of the C. E. S, L. held at the home of Florence Payne, last evening, Mrs. Helen Brewster Owens, state organizer, spoke of the plans for equal franchise work for the summer.
"Nine colleges and schools have organized College Equal Suffrage Leagues," said Mrs. Owens. "Others are now organizing leagues."
In all of these schools, a canvass of members will be taken, and the members will be classified by counties. From each county a girl will be chosen to arrange a county suffrage meeting for each county later. A prominent speaker will be invited to address the meeting, and a picnic dinner will be served.
"By this means," said Mrs. Owens, "we hope to create in Kansas, a state-wide interest in equal franchise."
Mrs. Owens left for Baldwin this morning, to speak to the students Baker University on the subject of franchise.
COMMISSION FORM OF GOVERNMENT DISCUSSED
Debating Society Holds Last Meeting of Year and Proves The Advantage of This Form.
The last meeting of the K. U. Debating Society for this year took place last night. Only one debate was held instead of two as usual.
The question discussed was, "Resolved that the State of Kansas should adopt a commission form of state government, the commission to have all legislative functions not reserved to the people, and to consist of no more than two lieutenant-general men, including ex-officio the governor and heads of departments."
The decision was in favor of the informative which was presented by Morton, Cain, and Hobson. Their principal arguments were that under the present system the state government there is lack of responsibility, that there is lack of system, that the present plan is too cumbersome and slow; that under the commission form of the government we would get more efficient officers, that is, men who would be specialists in some particular line, and that the recall and the initiative and referendum would be a part of the plan.
The negative speakers were: Steeper Vansell and Griffith.

STUDENTS SEE AND HEAR FAMOUS MEN
Figures of National Repute Have Talked at University This Year
The president of the United States a Governor who would succeed him the acknowledged leader of a race the foremost settlement worker in the country, a reporter whose best is the world—these are a few of the national figures who have supplemented the text-book instruction to the University of Kansas this year.
Chancellor Strong thinks that not the least of a University education is the opportunity to come in contact with great men, and that is why President Wood Wilson, Booker T. Washington, Jane Addams and Melville E. Stone were brought to the University to tell the world face to face the significance of some of the world movements of the day.
Others, scarcely less well known, have been seen and heard by students at the University this year. Among these are C. Alphonso Smith, Roosevelt lecturer to the Kaiser, Tom L. Masson, editor of Life, Walter Taylor Sumner, chairman of the Chicago Vice Commission, Nathan William MacChesney, judge advocate of Illinois, President King of Oberlin, and Raymond Robins, settlement worker. Hamilton Wright Mable and Dr. Edward A. Steiner are coming next week.
SIGS TAKE FIRST GAME
By Good Hitting Sigma Chis
Win First of Championship
Series of Games
In the first game of the inter-fraternity championship series played yesterday afternoon on MeCook field, the player this walked off with a 7 to 2 discovery.
The game was fairly well played throughout by both teams, though Stotts, who stood in the box for the Alpha Taus, was unable to keep his opponents from connecting up with his deliveries. The Sigs have a reputation for heavy hitting and before the ninth the ninth had collected ten hits to their credit. Wilson allowed the A. T. O. aggregation five hits.
There were some fairly good hits on both sides but the fielding by both the teams was poor. In the fourth it looked as if the Alpha Tau bunch were going to take a winning lead on their opponents, but owing to a decision of the umpire, who called a long hit close to the base line in left a foul, the three men on bases remained where they stood and died with the next man up.
The second game was to have been played this afternoon but has been post-poned until Monday on account of the rain.

Y.M.C.A. FINDS WORK FOR MANY STUDENTS
Has Aided Nearly Two Hundred to Pay Expenses This Year
TO CANVASS CITY IN AUGUST
Employment For Students Helping Pay Their Own Expenses Will be
Lined up In Advance.
"The development of the Employment Bureau at the University has been a gradual evolution," said Roy Stockwell, manager of the Bureau, this morning. "It has existed in the University for many years but it is only within the last four, that it has been turned over entirely to the Y. M. C. A. The University pays five hundred dollars annually toward its support.
"We have sided between one hundred and eighty, and two hundred men during the present school year," continued Stockwell, "by assisting them to find suitable work whereby they could make at least a part of their expenses for the years. The approximate value of the work thus secured is $12,000.
"The employment obtained was of all kinds, among which were, clerical work, collecting, table waiting, dish washing, club stewardships, carrying shoes of all kinds, such as taking care of stock, houses, yards, and gardens.
"The employmert bureau is capable of great development, and all that is possible will be done to bring it to a high standard of efficiency. We endeavor to find for each man that kind of work which he can do best.
"Next August a thorough canvass of Lawrence will be made in order to get a line on all work that can be done by the students during the winter. We are ready to offer the work to those men whining it as soon as they arrive next fall."
"We are continually receiving letters from prospective students, asking the chances to leisure work. We answer these letters, enclosing blanks to b filled out which will enable us to aid these making inquiry.
"If the people of Lawrence will be in mind that the employment bureau is in a position to supply help on short notice and without expense, many of the citizens will be aided, and at the same time do a great favor to many students"

SQUIRREL FAMILY MOVES FROM UNCONGENIAL HOME
It may have been because the rent was due, that the neighbors were uncongenial, that bad boys threw stones at the house or simply that a wayward car had crashed, invading the premises at any time it was moving in squirreldom this morning.
Papa Squirrel and Mama Squirrel must have come to the conclusion that their home on Ohio Street was not good enough or large enough for such a family as theirs had grown to be, so they went out to renoiterate. Long and diligently they searched until a suitable location was found in the shape of a hole in the roof of the old stone house on the Adams Street hill.
Papa Squirrel stayed at the new found premises to keep guard or possibly to dust it out a little while Mama Squirrel went back to do the moving.
Soon she was seen moving stewardily up Adams Street carrying a half
grown squirrel. She had grasped its stomach in her mouth and the baby squirrel hung onto her by clasping its tail into her mouth and entering into her stomach with its back feet.
Coming up the street was not difficult but when she attempted to climb the tree which was to serve as the stairway to their home it was about all she could do to carry her load. After getting out on a delicate branch she could scarely keep the wind from blowing her and her presses hard on. Finally, however, she got to the roof, went over to the hole and dropped her offspring to Papa Squirrel waiting below, and then hurried back after a second.
Four more trips she made in the same manner and now Mr. and Mrs. Squirrel are ready for congenial visitors to their new home.

JOB-GETTING MADE EASY
Among the numerous and various courses offered in the new catalog there is not one that will help a graduate get a job once he matriculates into the university of hard knocks. And what shall it profit a man, if he gaineth the world's knowledge, and it findeth him not an opportunity to keep old Professor Wolf from his faculty?
The first thing that man must do when he takes up the cares of the world is to get a job. And not one of his college courses will help him to do this. His Public Speaking may help him after he gains entrance to the private office, but not even a "I" in "Banking and Business Methods" will get him inside.
Why not a course in Position Securing? Two hours credit, with special courses for law, engineering, and pedagogical students. A laboratory might be added—no doubt the local business men could be induced to contribute their favorite methods of getting rid of job-hunters.
It is safe to say that such a course would quickly become the most popular one on the "hill" and the one of the most practical and useful to the graduate.
After formulating its ideas of the ideal quiz and getting them princed the faculty will proceed next week to hand out the same old kind.
But, on the other hand, the fact that they are at last thinking about the ideal quiz is a hopeful sign.
And to continue on the same trend of thought is it the height of safety to assume that the faculty's ideal exam will not coincide with the students' ideal ditto.
"PARDON ME, BUT—"
The Bill collector is one of the inconveniences and hardships of college life that goes a long way toward confuring Brother Johnson's theories that American college men sail to a degree on flowery beds of ease.
In the fall he is unnoticed as he unostentatiously glides from stude to stude regarding alike the serpulous and the tight. But now, knowing that his days of profit are short in the land he waxes uncomfortably insistent like a like—a well, like a bill collector. And although we know that it is only right to pay one's honest debts, there are times when other things are more alluring to the pocket book than a scrawled "Paid" on a piece of creased paper.
But the bill collector is more to be pitted than censured. The Kansan knows. It still has a few back subscriptions to come in.
buildings, indeed in one so disreputable and so downright ugly that if it were on the campus proper it would be torn down before this. It is not even comfortable in cold weather, and leaks when it rains.
ART IN A GARRET
But these facts speak very highly for the industry and application of the Fine Art students. If they habitually glanced up from their work, or were in the habit of taking their minds off their studies it is certain that they could not endure the depressing and disheartening sight of the ancient eyesore in which they are confined.
It is not fair to the Fine Art students to ask them to continue longer in their present quarters. The drawing classes found inspiration, the hand maid of hard work, so sadly lacking in the barren walls of old North College, that they never would consent to study there. The other art students not wholly dependent on the sense of sight for their impressions, could shut their eyes from time to time, and so have been able to endure even to this day.
But why ask them to remain longer? Why not bring them over to the campus and house them in a tasteful and comfortable classroom. The days of art in a garret are past. Poverty, chill quarters and isolation are no longer considered necessary to the development of an artistic temperament. Besides poverty, chill quarters and isolation are very scarcen in Kansas.
Why should they exist at its University?
Oh, the irony of it! This is Student's day, and at one thirty by the clock the first final quiz was dedicated.
THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY
THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY Owen Johnson has denounced the American University of today, as being merely a social center where the youth of the higher classes acquire a social polish, and the poorer students absorb a contempt for social order and government and the functions of the state. He says that the old methods of teaching which have not appreciably changed in the past generation are not the best means of infusing culture into the mind of the modern student; hence as an educational instrument it is a failure.
It seems almost incredible that the stood and appreciated; in the mean School of Fine Arts, the home of while gathering from an intelligent budding esthetic genius and a love of contemplation of the world's advance, the beautiful, should be housed in whatever of contemporary learning the most unsightly of the University that is worthy of presentation.
And now Brian Hooker, literary critic and playwright, comes forth with the statement that the "great virtue of our universities is that they are not up to date; that they do not reflect the confusion of the outside world."
These opinions are on their face contradictory. One critic objects, because the American Universities do not keep up with European methods of instruction in general information. The other wants the universities to be the treasures of the collective knowledge of the ages. He wants them to stand still and be the milestones that show where modern thought is leading.
Both of these opinions are from careful students and they are worthy of consideration. There is merit in each. It is true that many students do not get all they can out of college life, and that others get only a superficial polish. But, it is also true that a college could easily become too conservative, that it could become so thoroughly saturated with the traditions and conservative ideals of the past that its graduates would be completely out of touch with the present day conditions.
One must conclude, then, that the proper course is a middle one. The University should conserve old traditions, which have alone made possible the accessibility of the vast sum of human knowledge that makes the world as we know it today, and at the same time it should keep in touch with modern conditions. Thereby it will be able to present to mankind the wisdom of the ages in a form that can be understood and appreciated; in the meanwhile gathering from an intelligent contemplation of the world's advance, whatever of contemporary learning it is worthy of presentation.

HOULD UNIVERSITIES
LEAD MORE THOUGHT
Brian Hooper, in Bookman for May Refuses Owen Johnson's Argument in "Stover at Yale."
Brian Hooker, in a review of Owen Johnson's "Stover at Yale" in the Bookman for May, appends to the discussion of the book as a literary work some reflections concerning the questions raised by the book regarding the true functions of a university, and what constitutes a real university education.
"Education is not the implanting of a thirst for knowledge," says Mr. Hooker. "The Yildish immigrant has a thirst for knowledge already implanted; but he is not cultured nor ever will be. Neither is it an accumulation of facts; that is the trouble with Mr. Johnson's twenty questions. A man who could answer all of them and more might be wholly uncultured; and an oriental philosopher could not answer any of them.
"Education is exercise; and you can develop the mind by any course of study, just as you can develop the body by any kind of exertion. But whether or not either by triling with all exercises at once, without exerting your at all."
"Of course it is only his collective memory that raises man above the animal: the ape of each generation shakes himself free from the past, and remains an ape. And if our colleges are not to act as conservatories of tradition, it is hard to say where the racial memory is to be conserved. A university, like a cellar, is a good place to keep things in, because it is warmer in some seasons and cooler in others.
“Mr. Johnson wants the universities to be leaders of modern thought. Perhaps it would be better for them to stand firm and show whither modern thought is leading. Certainly it is well for them to rest apart from the clamor and chaos of the market-place, clositors of scholarship and tradition, walled gardens of idealism, lists where a boy may try himself in tournament before he goes forth to battle among men.”
"Greeks have been educated upon philosophy and gymnastics, prophets upon fasting and meditation, mediavails upon logic and dead tongues. Americans remain uneducated upon an elective smattering of universal facts.
"Our educational system fails to educate simply because it is not a system. And the colleges in extending electives have been moving steadily away from education toward popularity."
"The great virtue of our universities is that they are not up to date, that they do not elicit the whole confusion of the outside world, nor echo every breath of Babel."
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
The scholar only knows how dear these silent yet eloquent companions of pure thoughts and innocent hours become in the season of adversity. When all that is worldly turns to dress in glamour, the friend's steady value. When friends grow cold, and the converse of intimates languishes into vapid civility and commonplace, these only continue the unaltered countenance of happier days, and cheer us with that true friendship deceived hope nor deserved sorrow.
THE WEST POINTER HAS
A SPEECH ALL HIS OWN
The Plube, However, Before Using The Coveted Pharseology, Must Eat Twenty-Five Prunes at a Sitting
"Several articles have appeared in the Daily Kansan recently concerning slang," commented John H. Dykes a West Pointer who is taking special work in the College this term, "but I believe that at the Point we have the most complete slang vocabulary to be found."
WASHINGTON IRVING.
THE PRUNE QUI?
"In fact," he said, "we have two complete languages, the English (spoken in the académic halls) and slang (spoken elsewhere). A Plbeo, that is a Freshman, is allowed to use no cadet table-slang until he has qualified by eating twenty-five prunes for desert at one meal. By the way, the highest individual record in destroying prunes at one sitting is eighty-nine.
"The Howitzer" is the book published annually by the cadets and corresponds to the "Jayhawker" of the University. In the back of the book, there are dictionary containing all slang expressions with appropriate illustrations."
THE REWARDS OF THE MUSEUM
The following is a list of a few of the substituents for the English language which Mr. Dykes remembered: "drag," o accompany, for example, to "drug" a girl to the hop; "spoon," to entertain her ladies; "boneoid," one who studies; "pleebar," freshman; "yearlings," sophs, or wise men; "B.A." busted aristocrat, or one reduced to ranks; "max it," to make a high mark; "cold fess," complete打嗨; "hive," to understand or to be caught in the act; "spee," to memorize; "slug," a heavy punishment; "tac," Tactical officer; "bootick," a stand-in with the Tazr; "Flirtion Avenue," popular with the ladies — no place for a plbee; "to come with a jerk," to wake up, to pay attention; " Sound off," speak up; "skinned," reported for an offense; "grind," something funny; "goats," tail-enders; "B. J.," bold before June; "writes," semi-annual examinations; "pipe, dream," B-ache, explanation for an affense; "pink tea," a Plbee ing himself; "P. C.," previous condition of servitude, your occupation before entering the Point; "L.P.," lost beach, for an affense; "pink tea," a Plbee ing himself; "P.

Department of Mining Engineering Will HelpSolve Engineering Problems
Our Old

HAS FACILITIES FOR TESTING
asan Now.
Both The University and The Penal Institutes Will Profit by The Arrangement.
The state coal mine at Lansing will be a laboratory of the University of Kansas and in return the department of mining engineering of the University will take care of the engineering problems arising at the state mine, if the Board of Control of the penal institutions accept the invitation made recently by the Board of Regents of the University.
It is pointed out by the University Regents that its mining engineers can assist the mine by expert advice in matters of surveying, ventilation, haulage, hoisting, sanitation and methods of mining. The facilities of the University department for testing supplies such as lubricating oil can be made use of by the state mine. Even now the Lansing authorities are wrestling with the problem of transportation. The extent of the mine has become more chaotic by mules is too expensive. Expert advice to the use of equipment prejudiced advice as to the use of machinery and mining machines, is needed. Already scientific tests of the coal washing have been made at the University and it is proved that the establishment of a washery at the mine would greatly increase the calorific value of the coal.
The University would profit by such an arrangement in the possession of a laboratory, open for work at all times, in which mining problems, mine Surveys and methods could be studied without interference with either operators or laborers.
This is but another step in the policy of the University of Kansas to make its teaching and research work of direct value to the state.

BACK OF CONCRETE BEAM IS BROKEN
Two Weeks of Pounding Causes Reinforced Support to Sucumb
Night and day for two weeks, five senior civils, Houk, Humphrey, Stockwell, Wilson and Tucker have been fighting a concrete beam. But day before yesterday evening at seven, the beam which had held out as tenaciously began to weaken, and at seventh-thirty its back gave way.
During the two weeks a load of 5 tons was applied to the beam 150,500 times. This is probably greater than the number of maximum loads, which would be applied to a beam in 20 years of ordinary usage. The purpose of the test was to find how great a load could be applied to the beam an enormous number of times before rupture would occur. It is 5 tons.
A testing machine designed by Professors C. I. Corp and H. A. Rice was used to apply the load. It removed and replaced the load 22 times per minute. The machine worked admirably and gave some valuable data on concrete beams. The attachments to the machine were a deflection gauge, a revolution counter, and a vibrometer.
The beams are 12 feet long 8 inches wide and 10 inches deep to center of reinforcing. They are reinforced with three half-inch square

KANSAS NINE PLAYS
FAREWELL BALL GAME
Leave Tomorrow for St.
Marys to Close the
1912 Season
Tomorrow morning Coach Sherwin and his nine fearless batsmen leave for St. Marys, where they expect to return the score that was piled up on them at McCook field last Wednesday. This is the last game of the season and the Jayhawkers should put forth their best efforts to regain their standing held through the early part of the year.
From all dope the St. Mary team have inside track for a victory tomorrow. The Kansas Crips are about on their last legs, while the Catholic aggregation is hitting along at its best stride. The terrible Mahoney will again be on deck and the question of victory or defeat for the Kansas lads lies in the fact of whether or not they will be able to connect with the pellet for valid hits.
But it is not without hope that the Kansas nine enters their last game. Buzick and Ammons showed what they could do in the batting line last Wednesday and although the rest of the team is rather mussed up at the present time, they are getting used to the positions forced on them in the last three weeks and are pulling together fairly well.

GOLFERS' TOURNAMENT KANSAS CITY WANTS RUNNING OFF CLOSE CONFERENCE MEET
Annual Handicap Round of Oread Players Has Reached Semi-Finals
The third annual handicap tournament of the Oread Golf club has reached the semi-finals. As a result of the matches in the second round of the tournament the following players are left to contend for first place: M. W. Sterling, A. Sterling, Crawford, and Patterson. The Sterlings, father and son, will play for a place in the finals and the winner of that match will play the winner of the Crawford-Patterson contest.
The semi-finals will be completed by the end of this week and the finals will be played early next week, on a date to be announced later.
The scores in the second round were as follows: A. Sterling defeated Barteldes, 8 up and 6 to play; M.W. Sterling defeated Wilson, 1 up; Patterson defeated Johnston, 2 up; Crawford defeated Briggs, 7 up and 5 to play. Two extra holes were required to settle the game between Wilson and M. W. Sterling, the contest being the closest played in the tournament. It was not decided until the final putt on the twentieth green. In the first round of the tournament the scores of the teams not previously reported were as follows: Patterson from Blackmar, by default; Patterson won from Josselyn, 4 up and 3 to play; Briggs won from Jones, 5 up and 4 to play; Crawford won from Johnson, W. S., 4 up and 3 to play.
The defeat of Barteldes by A. Sterling in the second round was unlocked for. Barteldes was scratch man in the tournament, and was playing against a heavy handicap, although even under such conditions, he won the tournament last spring. Sterling, however, played an excellent game and with his handicap won the match early in the second round.

Question of Moving the Annual Contest From Des Moines Next Year
ROWLANDS
Coach Brewer of the University of Missouri has also cast his vote for the Missouri town. Washington University has little to choose between the two cities, as the distance to be traveled in reaching the meet is not materially different. But on account of the frosts which the last three meets have proven in Des Moines, especially along financial lines, it is expected that they will also favor the city on the Kaw.
KANSAS FAVORS THE CHANGE
While all of the conference schools have not yet been approached, these to which the question has been submitted have looked on it favorably. The University of Kansas has not yet taken definite action on the question, but it is expected that the authorities will make the most convenient place for the Conference meet. Coach W. O. Hamilton is very much in favor of the move and is working towards that end.
In all probability tomorrow will be the last time that the Missouri Valley Conference meet will ever be held in Des Moines. On account of the small crowds that have attended this meet in previous years and also the inconvenient situation in which the city of Des Moines is located, a movement has been started which will likely take the meet to Kansas City the next and following years.
KANSAS FAVORS THE CHANGE
Kansas City has a reputation for being a good place in which to hold college athletic contests because of its central location. The new Gordon and Kopple stadium offers an ideal place in which to accommodate the large crowds that should be attracted to this one of the largest athletic meets in the West. A conference of the alumni of the Missouri Valley colleges met in Des Moines last week and the advisability of holding the meet in Kansas City was considered. A vote was taken and the consensus of opinion was in favor of the central Missouri Valley city.
FINANCIAL QUESTION MOST IMPORTANT From a financial side alone the question makes Kansas City a strong favorite. The athletic authorities say that in all probability between ten and fifteen thousand persons attend the meet if it were held in the Missouri city. In former meets the conference schools have not only had to pay the expenses of the visiting schools but have also had to dig down in their own nockets to pay their own expenses.
Besides this trouble being entirely eliminated, the meet in Kansas City would enable the conference to pay all expenses and still retain a neat sum in the treasury. It is possible that the Kansas City Nebraska will be won over to the Kansas and Missouri side of the question when it is submitted to them.

CLASSMATES GIVE THEIR FLESH TO AID CLYDE MARIS
Six Men Gave up Part of Their Skin to Injured Student
DOCTOR CALLS FOR TEN MORE
Final Operation and Grafting Will be Executed in Dr. Rudolph's Office Wednesday, at 9:30.
By sasrificing a piece of their skin a little larger than a pea, ten students can assure the complete recovery of Clyde Maris, the freshman engineer, who was injured several weeks ago. He was bruised, and his flesh was torn in places, when he collided with a street car while riding his motorcycle.
Maris has been treated by Dr. John C. Rudolph, and all of his wounds are healed, except one on his back which is heightened of its size will require skin grafting.
Six students have offered to have part of their skin taken for the freshman engineer. They are William Baker, of Rosedale; C. J. Bayles, of Garrison; R. C. Keeling, of Oakley; F. F. Maret, of Haviland; Claude Griffith, of Lawrence and Paul Cunnick, of Lawrence. All are freshman engineers and classmates of Maris Dr.Rudolph will also give part of his skin for the operation. The final operation and grafting of the skin will be executed Wednesday, and Dr. Rudolph says it is necessary that ten more persons offer skin before the operation can be made. All who want to receive grafting part of their skin for the injured student are requested to go to Dr. Rudolph's office, 922 Kentucky Street at 30:08 o'clock Wednesday May 29. The physician guarantees that the operation will not be painful and will be no bad after effects.
JAYHAWKS PUT CRIMP IN QUIGLEY MACHINE
Jayhawker Aggregation Out for Revenge—Win Last Game by 6 to 0
If the Quigley Athletes expected anything in the gift line from the Kansas Cripples last Saturday they were sadly mistaken. The Jayhawk aggregation showed the Catholics that although they had slipped from the Missouri Valley Championship claimants they were still out for scalp. Sherwin's men were certainly out for revenge and when the last feeble ray of hope flickered out for St. Marys in the last of the ninth, the Kansans held the game by a 6-0 score.
Neither team scored in the first, but in the second the Kansans annexed one and started the scoring. From that point up to the fifth both teams were held scoreless by the perfect pitching of Mahoney for the Catholics and Walker for Kansas. Then things began to break and four tallies were brought in by timely swats of the jayhawker assisted by errors for the Quigley aggregation. In the next inning Sherwin's men collected one more run to their credit. Walker, however, continued to baffle the St. Mary's players from St. Mary's were held closest to the end of the game. The game was featured by the perfect delivery of Walker and the stellar hitting of Ammons and Walker. All the team were in good form and played in the form that they displayed before their last slump.
This closes the season for the Jayhawker baseball team. The St. Marys baseball machine have one more game to play, that with K. S. A. C. next Tuesday. To win the Missouri Valley Championship the Quigley claimants will have to annex this clash.
The score by innings: R. H. E. Kansas. . . .010 041 004—6 5 2 St. Marys. . . .000 000 000—0 4 5
PROF. W. C. HOAD TO GO TO MICHIGAN
Professor of Sanitary Engineering Accepts Position From Northern School
A POSITION MORE LUCRATIVE
Both Rank and Salary Will be Increased—Michigan Men Charge The State For Exert Services
The State For Expert Services
Michigan has stolen a man from Kansas in the person of William C. Hoad, professor of sanitary engineering. His appointment as head of a new department of sanitary engineering at the big northern school was confirmed by the Michigan board of regents last Friday. Professor Hoad was called to Michigan for a consultation about two weeks ago and at that time accepted the appointment. Professor Hoad's loss will be distinctly felt by nearly every city and town in Kansas. During the past year he has examined and approved two million dollars' worth of municipal work in Kansas, and has advised with more than two hundred towns and cities on questions of water supply, sewage, purification plants, and renewal of franchises. At present he has on hand plans and specifications for towns, only partially completed, amounting to another two millions.
SALARY AND RANK INCREASED
SALARY AND RANK INCREASED
He goes to the University of Michigan as head of the sanitary engineering department at a substantial increase in salary and rank. In addition to this, the difference in the policy of the Michigan and Kansas Universities will double his salary. Michigan is one of the faculty to do state work to charge the cities for their work. Kansas University goes on the theory that it is an arm of the state and that the state has a right to call on the University for free service, whenever such work does not interfere with its teaching province.
Professor Hoad is a graduate of the University of Kansas, class of 1898. For two years following his graduation he did engineering work for the Santa Fe and Union Pacific railroads, after which he specialized in sanitary engineering at the Boston Institute of Technology. As associate professor of engineering, he served on the State Board of Health in 1907, and has continued with that body ever since. Professor Hoad will leave the first of September for Michigan to take up his new duties there.
REGISTRAR FOSTER GETS INLAID TABLE
Incapacitated Prisoners at the State Penitentiary Do Excellent Work
The table is a massive design thirty-one inches high with an inlaid woodwork top fifty-one by thirty-three inches. The top is made up of fifteen different kinds of hard wood and contains twenty thousand pieces. The work is done in the wook work shop at the penitentiary by incapacitated prisoners who are not able to do heavy manual labor. The work is of a very high grade and the piece given to Mr. Foster is easily worth $150.
Registrar George O. Foster has at his office a handsome oak library table which he has just received as an award from the Royal Cedding of the State Penitentiary.
"I can think of but one thing to be done with such a handsome thing," said Mr. Foster this morning as he carefully covered the mosaic top with papers, "and that is to place it in the reception room which I hope we are going to have in the Administration Building."

JAYHAWKERMANAGERCALLS UPON SENIORS TO HELP BEAR FINANCIAL DEFICIT
To the Members of the Senior Class:
I am about to take the bitterest dose of medicine it has ever been my misfortune to take. I must confess that my attempts at managing the 1912 Jayhawker have been a failure.
We have gone into debt, not fifty or a hundred dollars, but several hundred.
The cause, I am sorry to say is due entirely to lack of foresight on my part. We tried to put out the best annual that had ever been seen at this school and we overstepped our limit. Whether or not I would have taken the book entirely on my own responsibility I cannot say. I intended to be as careful as I would were it my own enterprise.
CONDITIONS OF ELECTION
Be that as it may, the Jayhawker this year is in a bad hole, and it is now up to me to get out the best possible way. At a special election held last fall it was voted that the class take over the book, that it receive any profits and make good any deficiency. I was elected with that understanding.
CONDITIONS OF ELECTION
However let me say in my own defense, that I did not, intentionally, recklessly assume the task because I felt the class was behind me. I simply used poor judgment in estimating the cost of the book which we planned to put out. I estimated $4,000. It was nearer $5,000. Now, however, since the class would have faced such a big price that would have accrued had I made mistakes in their favor, I feel that I must call upon the members of this class, distasteful as it is, to make good the deficiency.
AUDIT ACCOUNTS COMPLETE
I propose that the senior class finance committee and the secretary and purchasing agent of the University audit my accounts. If I have not satisfactorily accounted for every dollar taken in, I will do so then. If any of my expenditures are not taxable, I will pay my personal account. After the books have been satisfactorily audited then let the committee or committees levy an assessment that will meet the deficit at that time. The University, I believe, may be willing to aid us in some material way. I personally will pay $50 of the deficiency and Mr. Cannon will pay $50 more. If the members of the class accede 'to' such a proposition, one which was accepted at a class election last fall, well and good; if not I will do whatever I am able and seems best.
Finally let me say that Carl Cannon is in no way responsible for the state of affairs which I have brought to my attention. It has been extremely interested in the
outcome of the book and has never urged that we take any chances of overstepping our financial limit. While I hold myself entirely responsible, Mr. Cannon desires to equal the responsibility I feel able to apply to the deficiency.
No one deplores the present condition of affairs more than Mr. Cannon and myself. We have put in many times the number of hours, one never connected with such a publication would ever imagine necessary. We believe that we have put out a book of which most of you are proud. We know that we have put out a book much better than the present condition. The manager has made the mistake which should not, but no doubt will, detract from the excellent work of the editor and his staff.
Below I submit to you an account of the total liabilities and the total assets based on the assumption of all the books being sold. All the books probably will not be sold and consequently when turned over to the University at a reduced figure will increase the deficit to some extent.

Books sold University. . . . . . . . . . . . 271.28
Total assets. . . . $4,111.75
Deficit. . . . . . . . . $529.37
The discount which has been deducted is what I feel may be deduced from the bill of the engravers on account of the work and which necessitated extra expenses on the printing contract.
The firms with which we have done business have been very "square" with us and we feel that we should reciprocate as far as possible. The editor and myself are unable to meet the deficiency out of our own pockets, something we would gladly do was it within our reach. The class and the University have been the principal beneficiaries of the mistakes that were made. Will the class carry out the platform it adopted early in the year or are our mistakes greater than were contemplated at 'hair time?'
SENIORS MEET TOMORROW

MEN'S COUNCIL JOINS PURE FOOD MOVEMENT
Will Investigate Sanitary Conditions and Prices Charged at Boarding Clubs
At the first meeting of the new Men's Student Council held in Myers Ha.. Sunday afternoon, it was decided that an investigation of the conditions at various boarding houses and the prices charged should be made, and if possible, to better both.
The advisability of continuing the management of the Jayhawk on the same basis that it was run this year was discussed, and a committee composed of Milton Minor, chairman, Charles Sturland and Ace Wilbur appointed investigator to position, and if necessary to devise some jw scheme.
An active campaign for the new Student's Union building will be begin at once, and as much work as possible will be done during the summer.
$5 IS NEW PRICE OF STUDENT TICKETS
This Action Taken Saturday by Old Student Enterprise Association
MAKE PURCHASE COMPULSORY
Athletic Association Needs More
Money on Account of Removal of Missouri Game From K. C.
Student Enterprise tickets will cost the students five instead of three dollars next year. The action raising the price of the student activity ticket-books was taken Saturday afternoon at the meeting of the representatives of the several organizations, members of the Student Enterprise Association, and the Student Councils.
The meeting was held in room 116 Fraser hall. The motion to raise the price of the tickets was passed unanimously.
Efforts are being made to make the purchase of the tickets on the part of the students compulsory, but as yet no way in which to require their purchase has been found. Next fall at registration an effort will be made to procure all necessary matriculate or register at the office to buy one of the activity books.
The price of the ticket was increased to provide more funds for the Athletic Association, which found itself forced to get along on less than 10 percent of its account of the removal of the Missouri football game from Kansas City.
Representatives of all the organizations that are members of the Association were present at the meeting Saturday afternoon with the exception of the Mandolin Club, the Glee Club, and the Orchestra.
PROFESSOR EDITS HISTORY OF KANSAS
Dean Blackmar Brings Out Two Volume Work on State Development
The history of Kansas which Dr. F. W. Blackmar, professor of sociology, has been editing is now coming from the press. It consists of two quarto volumes of 1900 pages with a supplementary volume of biography. It covers the whole political, industrial, financial and institutional development of the state. It has been the aim of the editor to put the salient facts found in this book to the public for accessible form. For this purpose the book has been put in cyclopedia form.
As stated in the editor's introduction: "It would be almost impossible to make such a history of achievement covering such a wide range of subjects in consecutive narration and at the same time make it usable to those for whom it was intended. For this reason the alphabetical order of topics has been chosen. By this method information on any subject from the administration of a governor or the development of a constitution to an historical incident or the founding of a small town may be obtained with facility. And in the process of research the form it has been necessary to omit all controversies, to avoid all comparison of judgement and relate the simple facts of how it all came about "However, all those who wish to have a consecutive history of political events need only to follow the history of the spearate administrations of the governors from Reeder to Stubbs and they will find a continued history of the political development of Kansas. And if this be supplemented by the perusal of separate articles such as those of the Louisiana Purchase, the Missouri Compromise, the Kansas-Nebraska Bill, Squatter Swopevighte, the development of constitutional conventions, finance measures under their respective titles we may have a history and philosophy of the building of the state."
W. Cannon of San Diego, is visitin his son Carl a senior in the College.
MOSSE TO COACH
NEXT JAYHAWKER
FOOTBALL TEAM
Position Accepted by Old Grad After Consultation With Chancellor
SHERWIN WILL RETURN HOME
Receives Good Offer From Home Town—New Appointment Must be Confirmed by Board of Regents
Arthur St. Leger Mosse will probably be the head coach of the football team next year according to the result of a consultation between Chancellor Strong and Coach Mosse in the office of the Chancellor this morning.
The Chancellor is said to have asked Mr. Mosse if he would accept the position as head coach and Mr. Mosse announced that he would take the offer and confer with Manager Hamilton at an early date concerning the appointment of an assistant. Mr. Mosse's appointment must be confirmed at the meeting of the Board of Regents this spring.
Ralph Sherwin, former coach of the football and baseball teams, filed his resignation at the office of the Chancellor late Friday afternoon, announcing to his friends that he intended to go to the game. He would be in his home town, Fitchburg, Mass.
Coach Sherwin's resignation will come to the students not altogether unexpected. He stated before he accepted the offer of coach of the Jayhawkers that he did not intend to make athletic coaching his life work and that his return to the east where he expected to find a job was necessary determination to leave the coaching work at an earlier date than contemplated when he first came to Kansas.
Coach Mosse will return as a graduate to coach the team on which he used to play and which he aided in coaching several years ago. He aided in placing the ever-victorious team of 1908 upon the field and the team of the following year that lost only one game of the entire season, the Missouri game, by a score of 12 to 6.
SHERWIN RETURNS TO HOME
TOWN IN MASSACHUSETTS*
Coach Sherwin lays down the profession of athletic coach to take up a business career. "I have had an attractive offer from my home town, Fitchburg, Mass., and will go into the insurance business there," he said this morning.
"I wish to express my appreciation
J. M. L.
RALPH SHERWIN,
Who resigned Friday as head coach of the football and baseball teams.
of the courtesy with which I have been treated in my year at Kansas. I have been helped in my work in every possible way. I shall take with me some very pleasant memories of the University and I shall follow the University's career athletically and scholastically next year with great interest."
Delta Psi, a local sorority will hold initiation for paddies this evening at the home of Miss Esther Wilhelm for Miss Bertha Anderson of Independence, Miss Ruth Lichen of Leavenworth and Miss Genevieve Huffman of Abeline.

MONDAY, MAY 27, 1912.
ONE DOLLAR AND THIRTY-FIVE
CENTS
A call for the support of the class of 1912 for their Jayhawker has been made by the business manager, and the members of the class should not falter in offering their aid to the management of the book of which they are proud as classmen. Through an error in estimating the costs of the book before printing, the total net liabilities of the management rose far above the figure planned by the manager.
Several factors all worked to boost the price of the Jayhawker and coupled with the intense desire on the part of the editor and business manager to give the class of 1912 one of the best annuals that has ever been published at the University, far greater expenses were incurred than should perhaps have been undertaken by the business and on the margin that was allowed.
From the first, a margin of only three or four per cent for profits was allowed, even expecting a complete sale of the edition. A twenty per cent margin should have been allowed to take care of all exigencies that might arise in the publication of a single edition such as the Jay-hawker.
In addition to these points, several of the important engravings that appeared in the book were delayed by the engraving company and additional cost in printing and composition was incurred on the receipt of these late cuts. Unexpected overtime in the print shop and sundry smaller and incidental features that were unforeseen by the manager of the Jayhawk combined to boost the price of the book to the five thousand dollar mark rather than the four thousand dollar contract which was closed at the first of the year.
A rough estimate would place the amount that each member of the senior class should pay in bearing this deficit at one dollar and thirty-five cents.
The manager and editor, who have already spent the best part of their time this year upon the book, have offered to bear a fifth of the total deficit.
The members of the class of 1911 should not even permit this.
They should vote to bear the entire amount and what is more to the point, should pay their part immediately.
ARTHUR ST. LEGER MOSSE AS HEAD COACH
Inasmuch as the regents have not classified Arthur St. Leger Mosse as being a member of that school of professional football coaches that has been barred from the universities of the Missouri Valley Conference, nothing should stand between the former expert pigskin mentor and the position as head coach of the 1912 Jayhawk football team. He has been selected already as the first assistant and on the resignation of Ralph Sherwin, Mosse is the only logical man for the job as head of the Kansas football machine.
When Mosse was formerly active in teaching the game of football, he
was famous for his ability in making the defensive work of his team impregnable, in solving the fake and trick plays of the opponents and in teaching his men how to meet their realistic features of offense.
His experience and success as a coach more than qualifies him for he position as chief mentor of the Kansas men and when he is once established in that position, Kansas will have one of the best teachers of the game in the Missouri Valley, a man who has aided in producing ever-victorious teams.
There is no fear for any child who is frank with his father and mother —Ruskin.
CO-EDUCATION
The senior men students at Wesleyan University have raised the boycott on the women and intend to permit them to take part in the class day exercises at graduation this spring, in the last year that the young women will be allowed to attend the university.
The banishment of the women students came the result of disapproval on the part of the men who maintained that their presence on the campus conducted to disorganization in the student body. This may be the ruling tendency in Ohio, but with a spirit among the women students such as is gathering strength and coming to be an important factor in
the university life of the young women here, men students in Ohio would hold another election before they placed their boycott.
It is even doubtful if they could hold such an exciting, closely-contested election as the women did here a week or so ago in selecting officers for the Student Government Association. And the men students have yet to demonstrate their ability and inclination to perfect an athletic organization such as started here this winter by the women students—an organization that obtained to the true end of university athletics, placing a higher per cent of student athletes in the field than the men with their organization of twenty years.
Whether or not the Women's Athletic Association will have that permanency that characterizes the association of the men remains to be seen. The present indications all point to a rising interest in their association. At least the men students at Wesleyan University would do well to reconsider and let their women students organize themselves.

And it ought to impel you, as a college man, to give more attention and thought to that part of your education. The steadiness and sureness of character that will come to you with a certain settled opinion as to what you are here for will be a powerful influence for the better in your life.
THE KAW FOLLOWS A
RUNAWAY BOY'S COURSE
The Ambitions Little River Encounters Many Vicissitudes Before It Dupes the Big Muddy Into Bearing Its Burdum.
THE Kaw river is a small, sandy stream the color of a chocolate nut sundaes, which carries away the waste rainfall of the upper right hand corner of the state of Kansas. It is very ambitious, and almost every spring it undertakes a job that is too big for its gross tonnage capacity, and the people who live along its shores are rescued in motor boats.
The Kaw sometimes goes under the alias of Kansas, but the people of the state, not wishing to have the fair name of their state dragged into the mud of the river bottom have generally consented to use the shorter and uglier word.
When in Lawrence, the Kaw is the guest of Hon. J. D. Bowersock and quite cheerfully—quite cheerfully—furnishes Mr. Bowersock with a few thousand horse power of energy with which to run his flour mill. It is at Lawrence also that the Kaw makes the acquaintance of students of the University of Kansas, but first impressions are unpleasant consisting usually in a violent tone. The cream proof for ladies and a cocoa set of hand blisters for ladies. However, it is said that most students come to have quite an affection for the stream, and his informal receptions, especially when he is assisted by that able and tactful accomplice, the Full Moon.
After the Kaw leaves Lawrence, it flows through a series of potato fields and railroad embankments until it comes to Kansas City. On its way it consumes large quantities of sand, cottonwood trees and in former times, railroad tracks. The latter practice proved very unprofitable to the railroads and they stopped it by building heavy stone hints out into the channel where they ran close to the bank. This makes the track safe, but it is hard on the farmer on the river.
It was nice and "comfy" not to be rushed to death, she thought, as she leaned back against the cushions and closed her eyes, just-for-a-minute.
"You have your quiz-books ready, I suppose?" came the crisp voice of the professor.
When the Kaw gets to Kansas City, like many others, it finds itself in bad company. All the packing houses, soap factories, stock yards, and fertilizer works that Kansas City Missouri refuses to smell, find a ready welcome and more callous noses over the line, and settle down beside the Kaw which is impressed into service. Its duties are to carry away that part of the packing industry, apparently a small business that neither pollutes the breezes nor is littered with it. After a few sluggish miles of this kind of thing, the Kaw gets disguised and turns the whole matter over to the Missouri, who being a stranger from Montana, is easily duped.
On the whole, the course of the Kaw is analogous to the career of a country boy in the western part of the state. He gets dissatisfied with conditions and in company with some other boys he starts to leave home. Some of his companions dry up and never get out of the country, but he perseveres and secures a job at the county seat. While there becomes ambitious for college life and after preparation at Manhattan and Washburn he takes a course at the University. From there he goes to Kansas City, works a while independently, and then is swallowed up in the whirl of the big city's commercial life.
CAN YOU?
The senior girl w.i. started to find her fountain-pen poised especially over a quik-book, tilted at the uncomfortable angle necessitated by the professor's presence in the class-room. The professor she did not recognize, and she rather
The senior girl settled back comfortably among the cushions of her "Sleepy Hollow" chair, turned the light so that it wouldn't shine in her eyes, and lazily picked up her text-book on "Evolution." It really seemed unnecessary to study hard this last semester. All disagreeable required groups were filled up, she was sure of straight ones from the students of the class. Phi Beta Kappa. Final quizzes had no terror for her; she could even answer all the questions propounded in "Stover at Yale," except the ones in politics.
FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
resented having unexpected quizzes thrust upon her by an unknown instructor. Before she could object, audibly, the professor continued his directions.
Far more seemingly it were for thee to
thrive of Books, than thy ture full of Mome
—JOHN LILLY.
"You will find the questions on these slips of paper which I shall hand to you immediately," he said, with the professional precision of speech which occupies a quiz and is purposeed to show that one must have wisdom so serene that neither moth nor rust corrupt not thieves break through and steal.
"You are doubtless aware," he chorted, "you are are doubtless aware that your diploma your successful ability to answer these simple questions."
The professor looked menacingly at the students seated before him.
With a little sighing rustle of quiz books, the students bent to their task. The senior girl gasped as she looked at the slip of paper, mercy, she could never answer all those questions! He ought to read them in a panic of fear.
1. What make is the paino in the chapel in Fraser Hall?
3. Name seven kinds of trees on the campus.
2. What style of architecture is Green Hall? Blake Hall?
4. Describe accurately the view from Mount Oread.
5. Name the original of the busts in Fraser Hall and the Library.
7. Name four famous statues, of which copies are to be found in Fraser Hall.
6. Describe the case of relics on the stairway at the Library.
8. Who was the first chancellor of the University?
9. When was the iliac hedge planted and by whom?
10. Whose names are carved on the walls of the Museum?
11. When was North College erected?
12. Describe the classical museum.
15. Who wrote the words and music to the "Mla Mater" song?
14. Locate the sun-dial on the campus
14. Why were the colors, crimson
16. Describe the seal of the University.
17. What decorations are used on the Natural History Museum Building?
The senior girl nibbled her fountain-pen, and wrote her name on her quizbook; she looked out over the valley and lunched again off the fountain-pen, but to no avail. She could not answer a single question. She dimly remembered the decorations on the Museum, those weird creatures that stuck out their tongues at the innocent bystander. But she could not remember what they were called. Something about having the sore throat, she thought.
"Time," called the professor, putting a stop to this intellectual wrestling match. "Leave your quiz-books at the desk as you go."
The senior girl dejectedly put away her fountain pen, handed in her blank quiz-book and walked slowly to the kitchen where she turned and hurried back to the desk.
"Gargoyles?" she cried, triumphantly.
"Those horrid things on the Museum Building are gargoyles. Give me another chance, professor, give me another
The senior girl's text-book on "Evolution" slid to the floor with a hang. She opened her eyes and rubbed her arm to get the prickles out of it. Sulkly she picked up the book on "Evolution" and opened it. "They are gargoyles!" she insisted to herself.
In the "good old days" the feminine sex used to put on their sun bonnets as soon as the sun began to be hot. Now, we find the ladies taking their head dress off as soon as the sun comes beating down. Why is it?
THE GREENWOOD
O, when tis summer weather,
And the yellow bee, with fairy sound,
The waters clear is humming round,
And the goose still unscent,
And the green leaves are waving
green—
O, then tis sweet,
In them sweet, to hear the murmuring dove,
With those whom on earth alone we love.
And through the greenwood
together.
And to wind through the greenwood together.
But when 'tis winter weather,
And cross grieve,
And friends deceive,
And rain and sleet
The lattice beat,—
O. then 'tis sweet
Tail and sling
Of the friends with whom, in the days of spring.
We roamed through the greenwood together.

A College Student's Summer
During the summer of 1911, a college student appointed sixy agents-undercontract to sell THE SATURDAY EVENING POST and THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL in small towns and villages. By placing these contracts he earned $425.53 in commissions and $55.00 in prize money —total $480.53.
We want several college students, twenty-one years old or over, to do similar work this summer. We also have permanent, profitable work for a number of men able to travel and appoint agents to sell our publications.

In the Daily Kansan of May 24 The Aetna Life Insurance Co. runs a half page ad telling the good points of their Company and make the statement "we invite comparison." The Northwestern is pleased to accept their invitation and for the information of our readers we will run a comparison between one of our policies and one in their good Company. The Northwestern policy is on the life of Chas. Emersonm of Albion, Ill., age 43 in 1899. The Aetna policy is on the life of F. O. Tompkins, Middletown, N. Y., age 43 in 1900. We give the history of these two policies as that no one may say it was an estimate of future doings.

short order. In only three events did the "Houn Dawgs" fail to place. These were the hundred, the mile, and the mile relay. In nine of the thirteen events in which it was possible to take more than one place the Tigers counted five or more.
The meet was the classiest affair ever held in the Valley. Seven record were broken and one was tied. New marks were set in the mile, half the high hurdles, and both the relays and the distance in the high jump and the discus were raised. Wilson tied his own record in the hundred.
Probably the classiest events of the meet were the mile and the half. The former was a battle between Louis Anderson the Nebraska crack and Fahrqur of Ames. The event had been conceded to Anderson the then record holder. The last quarter of the race was one long neck and neck sprint. Anderson dropped back a pace just as they turned into the stretch and the Ames man won in 4:22.
While the half had been generally conceded to Bermond it had been doped as the banner battle of the meet because of the presence of the name of "Beany McGowan" in the entrants. He and the Missouriian fought a great battle for a lap and three quarters then Bermond pulled away. Montgomery of Morningside, a dark horse, came in with a wonderful sprint and took second from the tiring Nebraskan.
In the high hurdles, Nicholson set a record of 15.2. He and Hazen put up a great battle over the first seven hurdles but the Missouri man pulled slowly away at the eighth and won by a yard.
Patterson did great work for Kansas though the points won show him credit with but two. His fourth in the mile was in eight seconds below the Varsity record and his performance in the two mile was remarkable when the race he made of the mile is considered?
The half mile relay was the pretest event of the meet. Nebraska weakened by the loss of Racely, won in record time but the first five teams across were separated by inches.
Kansas points came three each from the hundred and high jump, four from the high hurdles and the broad jump each, one in the mile the two mile and the two-twenty, and 1-6 in the pole vault. This is the
first meet in which Kansas has not scored a first.

LAWRENCE BY AUTOMOBILE
New Feature to be Given to Alumni This Year—Expect 1,100 Guests at Dinner
If the Old Grad's head doesn't go round and round next week when he comes back to the commencement festivities it will not be the fault of the entertainment committees. More than the usual number of undergraduates have decided to stay over and see what it is all about. Several of them will participate in the regatta Monday afternoon, others will play in the band, or root for the seniors in the ball game with alumni all stars.
A new feature this year will be the seeing-Lawrence-trips given to alumni on class day by the Automobile Club of Lawrence. Next to his induction, he is theGrad's desire to see the women of the town that in his day was mostly mud-hole with now and then a board walk and a dim gas light.
Lawrence merchants and others will decorate for the week.
Special efforts will be made to acquaint the visitors with the inner workings of the University. Instead more modern buildings, they will be taken into the laboratories and shops where arrangements have been made to have the most interesting work on display. The university is also working to will be published so that the $9fer may easily find out what has become of the drafting room that used to be four-floor, or the Custer horse that apparently ranged in the upper snow lab.
A senior-faculty ball game is talked of for Monday afternoon following the regatta. Tuesday, class day, will be crowded with the usual events, and Wednesday will see the gymnasium be filled with the members of the graduating class, and will reveal the dinner committee trying to seat 1100 guests in 1036 chairs.
It promises to be very latest thirt in commencements.

Eight Men Underwent Painful Operation to Benefit Injured Student
GRAFTING HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL
Thirty-Five Distinct Skin Grafts Made—Doctor Rudolph Expects Speedy Recovery
The operation and the grafting of the skin on Clyde Maris, the freshman engineer who was injured in a motor cycle accident, was performed by Dr. John C. Rudolph this morning. Eight men gave up part of their skin for the benefit of the injured one, seven of them being student at the University and one the president of the motor cycle club of Lawrence.
Thirty-five distinct skin grafts were made on the injured part and Dr. Rudolph reports the operation as being highly successful in every way, and it is believed that it will not be long before he is entirely recovered.
The following sacrificed a part of their skin for the grafting: Howard Stephenson, Howard Marchbanks, Theodore Uttemberg, Will O. Smith, Bruce Payles, and Louis Power, present of the martyrs club. At noon today none of the martyrs felt any bad effects from the operation.

Will Direct and Train At University Plays and Entertainments
This organization between Mr. Sowers and Mr. Younggreen was formed Monday afternoon at a consultation between the two men who founded the company, plays at the University. The organization is being perfected this spring so that the company of student promoters may get their advertisements before the high schools early next week. In order to prepare the dramatic bureau will be prepared to undertake the promotion of all student enterprises next fall.
Class Breakfast or Picnic Wil Cut Morning Slumber
With a view of obtaining the work as directors and producers of the student dramatic productions at the University and at various high schools of the state, Charles Younggreen, of Topeka, and Clarence Sowers, of Wichita, have organized a student dramatic bureau.
It is the object of this bureau to undertake the work of training the amateur actors who take part in the club and society dramatic efforts; take complete charge of all student entertainments such as the football smoker or entertainments for high school students when they visit the museum; teach students to high school productions in furnishing the high school players manuscripts for plays and in training the student actors.

DYE CLOTHES WITH PENNY BLOCK CANDY
A Pound Will Color Enough Material For an Ordinary Dress
As a proof of this discovery they have dyed 1-4 yard of cloth a beautiful centre operated summing but one centre candy. At this rate but one of the candy could die four yards of cloth which is with a dress with a few ruffles thrown in.
Another use for candy has been found. Prof. H. Louis Jackson and Oscar E. Harder, of the department of food analysis, have found that ordinary "penny-a-black" candy, which is for sale at practically every store which handles sweetmeats at all, makes excellent cloth dye.
Another thing which seemed strange to the reporter for the Daily Kansan was the licorice candy which has been analyzed lately. He ate some of it and admitted that he did not know what it tasted like.
Mr. Harder then said that the candy contained 1 1-2 per cent of lamp black which gave it is glossy black color, and that gelatin made up the body of it and that anise seed gave it its peculiar twang.
After trying some real licorice the reporter was willing to trust the remainder of the analysis to his sense of humor. But after information that the first sample contained no licorice at all, or at least not enough to warrant its being licensed, he Harder, however, was not ready to admit that the reporter was right.

MOTOR-BOATING IS AN IDEAL SUMMER SPORT
Dean Templin says that it is a good Way to Get Close to Nature.
"My advice to anyone wishing a good diversion for the summer time," said Olin Templin, Dean of the College, this morning, "I would be to buy a means of communication, however, your legs are much more reliable.
"I am the possessor of a steel motor boat eighteen feet long, capable of carrying eight passenger ships or power marine engine. I get a great deal of pleasure from my job, because it is a quick way to lay out my own rear dinary run of life and get close to nature.
"Motor-boating is not so expensive as automobiling and is a more complete change from our daily habits. There are two systems on the river last summer but I was the only member of the faculty who had one."

Class Also Passed Resolution Com-mending Editor and Business Manager for Their Work
At the meeting of the senior class held in chapel Monday noon, between sixty-five and seventy-five students voted that the class should make an assessment of $1.50 against the numbers of the class, the money to be used in making up the deficit found in the funds of the Jayhawk management. The collection of this assignment was made on behalf of an annual board along with the fifty cents assessment made to provide funds for the class day entertainment.
A resolution was also passed upon the initiation of ira Snyder, Edmund Rhodes, Arch MacKinnon, and Beulah Murphy, commending the editor and their work and efforts in giving the class the annual they published.
However, it was anticipated that few of the members of the class will refuse to aid the Jayhawker. Several members of the class paid their assessment Monday afternoon and littered the table is anticipated in making the collection. A lot of who have not paid by Tuesday, June will be made for submission to the Regents by the committee appointed.
PERSONAL CANYASS WILL
BE MADE IN COLLECTING
The general sentiment expressed in the meeting of the seniors was the classman should pay the assessment withholding, indeficent in the Jayhawk funds, but did not rest in the minds of some of those present as to whether or not all the members of the class would be willful and unjustified. The last was then entertained providing for a committee to wait upon the Chancellor and Board of Regents at the meeting on Friday, June 4, that should attempt to rectify the problems of the Regents to have the diplomas of those who do not pay the amount of the assessment withheld until the final meeting. The members of this committee are: I. Robert Burton Scharsd and Edmund Rhodes.
Following the action of the senior class in placing the power for collecting the assessment in the hands of the annual board, the members of the board held a meeting in Fraser hall to discuss methods of interviewing the members of the class personally and making complete collections.
the membership of the class was divided into lists and each member of the class was assigned a certain number of seniors to interview for their assessment.
CUPID ATTRACTS MORE
THAN TEXT BOOKS
When it was necessary to decide between a post graduate course in ancient, languages at the University of Kansas next year and love, Miss Gertrude Barnes of Ottawa University, the senior who received the $250 scholarship he chose to choose love, Miss Barnes accepted the offer of the scholarship a few weeks ago, expecting to get a master's degree. That was before the last offer.
"I had a better offer," said Miss

BEWARE THE CONSUMPTION OF BREAD WITHOUT WATER
Have you been faithfully obeying Dr. Day's mandate, issued a few weeks ago, to drink a glass of water (boiled) with every piece of candy? I don't mind, but I'm not a candy since then. Couldn't afford—or that is, don't care for sweets?
Well, don't flatter yourself that you are perfectly safe. Far from it. Dangers beset you on every side. One of them is that the batter must be McColmium, of Madison, Wisconsin, has written to add another note of warning to the hungry student. Mrs. McColmium's theory is that bread, as we know it, must be irrigated. She cites learning to prove that the carbohydrates in bread are rapidly converted into sugar, in the mouth and the first part of the stomach. With every slice of bread, you are in a nice luscious chocolate-drop. Hence, irrigation is as necessary for
It was bad enough to be denied the pleasure of eating a box of chocolatecreams in one evening, but when somebody attacks the staff of life, it under you. So Dr. Day was appealed to by a chocolate-hungry student.
"The theory is incorrect," said Dr. Day. "Twice the weight of bread must be eaten to produce the quantity of sugar needed in a piece of candy. Furthermore, when bread, we always eat with it some foods which contain a great deal of water, such as potatoes, in addition to liquids usually consumed at a meal."
Mrs. McCollium was Miss Constance Carruth, K. U. '05. Her home is now in Madison, Wisconsin, where her husband, Mr. E. V. McCollium is Physiological Chemist at the State Agricultural College.

PROFESSOR HOAD
The departure of Professor Hoad will take from the University one of its most valued workers. It is not only the University who will lose, but the state at large. Professor Hoad's work put him and the University in close touch with the people of the state, and helped show them how they might make the University of greater usefulness to those who could not attend it.
At Michigan Professor Hoad will receive double his present salary, and a corresponding increase of rank. His duties will be to head the sanitary engineering department there and to advise cities of the state on sanitary matters.
Professor Hoad is a graduate of the University, of the class of '98, and has since been associated almost continuously with the University.
His removal will be regretted by many friends in Lawrence.
Fools learn nothing from wise men,
but wise men learn much from fools.

$5 FOR A TICKET
When the price of the Student Enterprise tickets was raised from three to five dollars, the change was not made without sufficient reason on the part of the committee in charge of the Enterprise fund. Students will appreciate this fully, when it is explained that the Athletic Association which is the biggest factor in the associated enterprises is sadly in need of money that can be obtained in no other way except by general student support.
As a direct result of the removal of the Missouri-Kansas football game from Kansas City to the college towns, the net proceeds from that game have fallen from approximately ten thousand dollars to half that amount. For the proper support of athletic interests at the University, much more money than the teams were able to earn in the past year is necessary, and the additional charge for the Enterprise Ticket is the only practical way in which it may be obtained.
A large expenditure will be made upon McCook field this summer in building new bleachers and in residing the athletic field. Although Student Enterprise tickets will be made good for the Missouri game here next fall, when the management of the two universities settle the gate receipts and the expenses, Kansas will be forced to pay to Missouri a certain per cent of the receipts for their student tickets and place them on a par with the single admission tickets sold before the game.
No loyal student supporter of athletics will care to raise a question concerning the new price of the athletic ticket. They will give the enterprise association their unqualified support.
The ticket is undoubtedly worth more than the money asked for it. Forty entertainments are offered which would cost no less than thrice
the cost of the ticket, and even before the football season is over, the student has received full value for the money he has expended.
LOYALTY OF THE RIGHT SORT The members of the senior class have shown in their meeting that they appreciate the efforts of the editor and manager of the Jayhawker this year, in giving the class the best book the University has ever had. The motion to make an assessment of one dollar and a half betrays the right spirit among the class men, and, although heretofore, some trouble has been experienced in making the collection of an assessment of that nature, scarcely any should be encountered in obtaining his money.
This assessment is not one of the brand imposed upon the class after being "fixed" in a secret meeting of some of the unknown financial officers, but rather one made in open meeting responding to a call for help and the seniors will pay without more question.
Candor looks with equal fairness t both sides of a subject—Noah Vebster.
STRAWBERRIES VS. PRUNES Not the slightest of the considerations that must be considered when discussing the real or supposed decline of the mental power of the American college Undergraduate is the dict upon which he subsists while he is in college. The old-time collegian, whose praises are continually being sung was a giant mentally and a wonder for concentration. He ate for breakfast oatmeal, porridge, and Prunes. For dinner he had as dessert, Prune Pie. And for supper, Prunes in their own rich brown juice, au natural, as it were.
Upon this fare he conquered Mathematics, surmounted the difficulties of Latin, Greek, and mastered the Humanities.
But now the handmade of prosperity, insidious luxury, has crept in and corrupted the standards of college living. Instead of stewed prunes, we have strawberries and cream. Instead of prune pie we have strawberry short-cake. Instead of oatmeal and prunes, we have a certain shredded preparation and strawberries, * * * * * and there has grown up in University life a scorn of the humble prune. To say that a person is "full of prunes" is to convey to him the fullest measure of contempt. Prunes are the food of the hoi polli, the bourgeoisie, the cannelle. It is not for us to eat them. Pass the Prunes? Forsooth!
But the breast of the American undergraduate still holds a spark of true democracy, and an appreciation, though sometimes, alas, concealed by shame, of true worth and humble utility. Deep down in our hearts we cherish a fondness for the nutritious prune that is unsatisfied even by strawberries at twenty cents a box. And while no one has yet been so bold as to demand prunes publically, and no landlady has yet been so regardless of the dictates of aristocratic pride as to set a dish of stewed prunes on the table, yet there are indications, and it is hoped that, that despised but invigorating fruit is about to enter into an era of good repute, and high favor among students of the University.
It has cost many a man life or fortune for not knowing what he thought he was sure of.—J. Staples White.
SUCCESS
The municipal paving plant in Kansas City is in charge of Dr. Cross and Mr. Pleasant; and we suppose that Dr. Cross is pleasant and Mr. Pleasant is cross—Chicago Tribune.
In days gone by, Mr. Pleasant was affable with all except, the Tiger football warriors, and even now we surmise that his paving plant is laying out paved streets pleasant to cross.
The action of the senior class yesterday in levying an assessment of $1.50 to cover the deficit on the Jayhawkens was just and proper. It was a good decision, but not without the honor of the class was at stake, it having previously agreed to stand the deficit. The annual this year was undoubtedly the best ever issued and the entire Board deserves congratulations for their labors. So far, so good.
STUDENT OPINION
WHITEWASH
STUDENT OPINION
The editor is not responsible for the views expressed here. Communications must be signed as an evidence of good faith.
However, the manager's own statement shows that he exercised poor business judgment and allowed his boss to give a book. It shows that with all books sold and all collections made, that even then the publication will be more popular than any vice of this statement, the senior class meeting yesterday gave a vote of thanks, confidence and praise for the success of his business management and conduct of this year's annual. This is carrying the matter too far. The class should pay the deficit, but let the responsibility fall on the managers—on the manager, who might have checked expenditures, had not his desire and that of his Board, outweighing the budget. It looks like whitewash, pure and simple. The meeting yesterday was attended by only a few members of the annual Board and their friends.

COMBINE FUN AND PROFIT IN READING
Professor Thorpe Gives Class a List of Books for Summer Perusal
"Some summer and profitable reading," was the way Prof. Merle Thorpe put it as he gave out a list of books to members of the newspaper class this morning. "It's seldom that 'oungness' and fun come to mind, but I find entertainment and instruction hand in these books," he said.
Professor Thorpe thinks that an all-round newspaper man ought to know Colonel Newcome as well as Napoleon I; he ought to be as well acquainted with D'Artagnan, Athos, and Gervais, with Roosevelt, Garfield, Pinard, Cinnabar, and Stubbs. Anyway here's the list; cut it out and paste it in your hat;
The Three Musketeers, Dumas.
Eugene Candela, Bel.
The Master of Ballantrae, Stevenson.
Tale of Two Cities, Dickens
The Former Louse House
Toss of the D'Urbervilles.
A visitor's trolls (A Nobleman's Nest), Burundi.

"For want of a spraying pump, a fruit crop worth $1,000 was lost south of Erie last week," said Prof. S. J.

E.R. Weidlein Finds Haemostatic in Glands of the Whale
Whale
Adrenaline, which is obtained from the suprarenal glands of mammals, a small gland located just above the upper extremity of each kidney, has recently been discovered by E. R. Weidlein of the University of Kansas, to be excreted from the same glands of the whale. Its ceil high depends upon its use as a stryptic but its value has become greatly increased and its uses are far more extensive.
Its more common uses at the pres-
the eye and the like. It will cause a noticeable increase of blood-pressure when introduced into the circulation, and at the same time it strengthens the heart action.
Adrenaline is obtained from other sources. It is found in the glands of cattle and sheep. Most all the commercial adrenaline is prepared from the supraranal glands of cattle, however sheep glands are sometimes used. The latest source of adrenaline is the skin secretions or poison glands ("Bufa Aqua" separated by Professor Abel of Johns Hopkins University.
Mr. Weidlein has found a new method for the separation of the adrenaline from the whale glands. His results will be published in the near future.

Miss Carroll is Graduate of University of Chicago—Miss Nadia Thomas to do City Work
The new cabinet of the Y. W. C. A. is planning in detail the work for next year, in order that there may be no break in the work, occasioned by the change in general secretaries.
"We are arranging now for the coming year," said Mary Reding, president of the Association for 1912-13. "During registration week, the faculty ladies will hold open house for new students, and the Y. W. C. A. girls will help with the registration in Fraser hall. During the summer the members will write to prospective girl students about their fall work at the University."
WILL DO WORK IN CHICAGO
Miss Nadia Thomas, general secretary of the city, is giving up her student work temporarily, and is going into city work.
WILL DO WORK IN CHICAGO
"A student worker needs experience in other kinds of general social work," said Miss Thomas, today. "I intend to go to Chicago and take up residence in one of the settlements there, in order to get in touch with the work of the Associated Charities."
Miss Thomas was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1909, and taught English in the Concordia high school for six months. Miss Alice Morris, who had been general secretary for three years, gave up the work because of her failing health, and in February, 1910, Miss Thomas became general secretary of the Y. W. C. A. for the University of Kansas.
"Only those who were intimately associated with Miss Thomas," said Lucie Murc, president of the Association for 1911-12, "can fully appreciate all she meant to the Association and to the girls."
NEW SECRETARY BEGINS WORK IN FALL
Molly Mray Ray Carroll, the new general secretary, will take up her work about September first. Miss Mely comes from Chicago, is a graduate of the University of cacao, and has just completed a year of graduate work in "Religious Pedagogy."
While at the University, Miss Carroll was a member of the Y. W. C. A., served on the housing committee, and for the past two years was chairman of the recreation committee for the Geneva Summer Conference at Geneva, Wisconsin. For this conference, he was chair of a trip Miss Carroll had complete charge of the afternoon excursions and recreation trips.
"Her experience at Geneva," said Miss Reding, "pursed Mrs Carroll to be enthusiastic, capable and energetic, a typical out-of-doors girl."
For the summer, Miss Carroll is taking a special student secretary's course at the Y. W. C. A. Training School at 25 Gramercy Park, New York City. Admission to this course is granted only to persons with experience or to secretaries under appointment.
FRESHMEN LACK INTEREST?
At Awarding of Student Government Scholarships Few Were Present.
Say!
at a meeting of the Freshman class, last week which was called in regard to the presentation of the award for the Mentorship Scholarships only a very small representation of the class was present. In speaking of the meeting in an interlinear presentation I said, "I don't see why a class bulletin board can not be provided for the Freshman class in Fraser hall where the award is given, nor sure nor more than one-fourth of the class knew anything about this meeting". The awarding of these scholarships is limited to committees and will be announced this week.
Harry C. Alphin, who was graduated from the School of Law last year is a candidate for county attorney of Douglas county.
The last chance of the seniors to get their caps and gowns will be at the check stand on Friday morning from ten to twelve o'clock.

Wins Final of Championship Series From Alpha Tau By 8 to 2 Score.
In the final game for the inter-
fraternity championship the Sigma
Chis ran a marathon around the
field and carried off the penant
with a sash.
The game was played Monday afternoon and the results for a time looked as if they would be close. But the Sigs took the lead in the first round, with seven men around the sacks and the Alpha Tau were unable to ston them.
In the first two innings both teams were held scoreless as both Hostettler and Wilson were pitching good consistent ball. The third and the fifth, however, proved disastrous for both teams, and in each of these they allowed their opponents go past the home plate. The Sigs also had their batting eye open and after the slow start, literally pounded the Alpha Tau toulfer tooser out of the box. Seventeen hits were registered during the course of the aftereffects. Lee nine in comparison to the seven of the South Vermont slabsters.
The trophy won by the Sigma Chis is a handsome silver loving cup presented by Mr. Allie Carroll of Lawrence. The cup will remain the permanent property of the Sigma Chis.
The score:  R. H E.
Sigma Chis: .003 030 020 .001
Alpha Tau: .000 001 001-2 7 3
Batteries: Sigma Chi, Wilson and Martin; Alpha Tau, Hostettler and Stotts, Umpire, Plank.

SUFFRAGE LEAGUE
HAS 50 MEMBERS
Many Others Express Sympathy—Will Begin Canvass Next Fall
"The results of our recent membership campaign," said Cora Downs, president of the College Equal Suffrage League, "were very satisfactory. We now have over fifty signed members, with many others who are in sympathy, and will probably join next year."
Active work will be carried on by the League during the summer under the direction of Mrs. Helen Brewster and the leadership ranged for by the various leagues over the state. The work at the University is in charge of the president, Miss Downs, and the secretary, Miss Downs. In the county, Miss Downs and Helen Rose, treasurer of the League, will arrange the county day, in connection with the Woman's Equal Franchise league and the Kansas Florence Payne, of Lawrence, will probably be selected by Mrs. Owens, to take charge in Douglas county.
We will begin canvassing for new teachers at Downs, "as soon as school opens next week," as the business committee, to see the freshmen and appointed by the president this week.
At a large general meeting to be held the next fall a number of Kansas staff members will attend the League. These speakers will be secured by the members of the Advisory Board, Miss Else Neumann, Dr. Margaret Lynn, and Dr. Edna Day.
