(4) Dependability and loyalty in work.
In February the Daily Kansan announced that it would give away one hundred dollars in prizes to its high school correspondents who made the best showing from that time until the end of the college year. At that time there were about forty schools who were represented by high school correspondents and with the announcement of the prizes, interest in the work increased and when the contest closed yesterday there were one hundred and two schools who had regular reporters turning in readable news stories about their school work.
CHANCELOR AND MRS. STRONG
GIVE ANNUAL RECEPTION
It was no easy matter to select the winners from such a large number of competitors, and the judges, Arthur Capper, proprietor and publisher of the Topeka Daily Capital and other papers, and Clyde Knox, editor of the Sedan Times-Star and president of the State Editorial Association, made their selection only after going over carefully all of the work that had been done. There were over four hundred counlons of matter submitted and from this one hundred and fifty columns were used in the Daily Kansan.
The annual reception by Chancellor and Mrs. Strong for the alumni, former students of the University and the members of the senior class was given last night in Green Hall from 9 to 10 p.m., where seating line were Chancellor and Mrs. Strong and the deans of the various schools and their wives.
SAME DORMITORY COMMITTEE
John A. Prescott of Kansas City, Missouri, visited at the home of Professor Frank Blackmar, yesterday.
J. A. Prescott, '88, Reelected Vice-President at Annual Meeting.
The largest number of alumni who have attended a session of the University of Kansas Alumni Association, gathered in Snow Hall yesterday afternoon to talk over the work of the past and to make plans for active campaigns along certain lines. Four hundred graduates were present at the meeting which was presided over by Charles F. Scott, of Iola.
Perhaps the attention of the alumni has been called more particularly this year to the need of a building on the campus for the girls than to any other activity and when the committee that was appointed last year to urge the committee to take part in a serious discussion as to what the future attitude of the Association should be toward the movement. The report of the committee showed that $4574.50 has been pledged by the alumni, that University students have pledged $694 54 and that friends of the University have subscribed $1310. This makes $874.50 that has been pledged toward the erection of the building.
After much discussion it was decided to retain the old committee and to instruct them to proceed with the campaign in the best possible manner.
The members of the committee are:
Olin Templin, chairman; Alberta Corken, secretary; Cora Pierson Hopkins;
W. Y. Morgan; Eugene Gallie, Ellinor Sisson; Evadne Laptad; Genevieve Howland Chalkley; Katherine Morton Carruth; Fay Dodge; Rose Morgan;
Angnes Thompson; J. W. Green; Hannah Oliver; W. C. Hoad, and Mabel Gore Glied.
The question of establishing a commons by the Association was discussed and it was finally decided to laty he matter over for one year.
TO TAKE PART 'N ATHLET CS
It was stated that at present there is an attempt to form a governing board composed of representatives of all the colleges in the Missouri Valley, when will regulate all athletic affairs among the schools. On this board there will be several alumni representatives and the executive board of the Association was instructed to name the members of the committee whenever such an action shall become necessary.
MADE MESERVEY PRESIDENT
The election of officers resulted in the selection of Edwin C. Moservey, '82, of Kansas City, Mo., as president, and the reschelection of John A. Prescott, '88, of Kansas City, Mo., as vice-president. The directors chosen are General Joseph A. Thompson of Lawrence. They will serve for the term of five years.
The old grads were so glad to get back to the old haunts again that they did not seem to be inclined to put in the warm afternoon discussing facts and figures and about 3 o'clock there was a general exodus toward McCook Field where they watched the ball game between the alumni and the seniors.

the culminating feature of the class day exercises the seniors presented their annual fare last evening to an audience that taxed the capacity of Robinson gymnasium. The offering this year was "A Temporary Landlord" and it was a relief from former fares in that there was no attempt to sing moony songs or present a few numbers from musical comedy.
The farce was light, but there was a real plot to the whole skit and it was just the kind of a production any one would like, on a warm summer*

Four Hundred Fifty Senior Received Their Degrees This Morning
DR. H. W. MABIE THE SPEAKER
WARM DAYS DO NOT DAMPEN THEIR ARDOR
Vast Audience Gathered in Robinso
Gymnasium For the Fortieth Annual Commencement Exercises
nual Commencement Exercises
A line of moving black that stretched from Snow hall to Robinson gymnasium; Chancellor Strong and Hamilton Wright Mabie, associate editor of the Outlook, in academic robes; the University band playing a stirring march. This was the picture seen this morning as the four hundred and fifty seniors held court for each annual commencement exercises of the University of Kansas.
The procession to the gymnasium was formed shortly before ten o'clock and the seniors were grouped according to schools. Long before the line of seniors had been formed, the gymnasium was filled with students and the graduates who had come to see the graduating exercises. Tickets were issued to the graduates and alumni, and special seats had been reserved for them on the main floor. At 9:45 o'clock the doors were thrown open to the general public and the big hall was soon crowded. Led by Chancellor Strong and the University guest of honor Hamilton Wright Mabie, the seniors entered the hall to Gounod's "Processional March" and then proceeded to be joined by the University band. After the seniors had taken their places and Dr. Mabie, the Board of Regents, the special guests of the University, the faculty and Chancellor Strong, had seated themselves on the platform, the Reverend $\Theta$ - C. Brown of the First Baptist church, asked the invocation.
Without further preliminary, the, Chancellor introduced the speaker of the morning who had taken time from his work as associate counsel to address the graduating class on "Work and Days." Dr. Mable is one of the best known editors of the present day and for a number of years previous to his association with the Outlook, was a contributor to all the large magazines. His address was a scholarly effort, but he also stressed the need to tethering manner that the audience easily followed him and listened attentively to what he had to say.
Following the address, the band played the Strudella overture and then followed the conferring of the degrees by the Chancellor to the four hundred and fifty graduates. As each senior arose and marched across the platform to receive the reward of his efforts while in college, the audience chored, and cherred again as some particular favorite received his degree that numbered him among the vast host of University alumni.
Perhaps the part of the exercises that is always looked forward to with more anticipation than anything else, is the announcement of the fellowships and scholarships that have been granted a number of the students who have earned recognition from the University by their superior work along with the reading of the winners followed the conferring to the degrees.
After the band had played a final selection the audience was dismissed and the gathering of the clauses under the banners for the march to the dinner

The rear guard of commencement visitors leaving tomorrow will meet the Summer Session students climbing Mount Oread. Work in the tenth annual Summer Session of the University will begin tomorrow morning. Prospects are that the attendance at all previous sessions will be surpassed. Prof. A. T. Walker, director of the Session, had enrolled fifty students at
6 o'clock last evening, a larger number than had ever before entered before
Classes will meet tomorrow morning as scheduled, and also will meet on Saturday morning this week but on no other Saturday of the Session.
The registration of students will be conducted as at previous sessions. The first step will be to pay fees in Room 109, after which Professor Walker will make assignments to classes at his office in Room 118.
Registration with full credit will continue until June 10. It is expected that the bulk of the attendance will be enrolled by the close of the week.
Because the classes in the Summer Session will be distributed between Fraser Hall and the Administration building, no chapel services will be held. All announcements of interest to students will be printed in the school.
All announcements of interest to students will be printed in the Summer Session Kansan.
HE CARRIES MESSAGE TO KANSAS TEACHERS
Ralph Spotts Tells County Institutes of Extension Department Work
Hundreds of Kansas teachers will be given an opportunity this summer to learn of the many ways by which the University of Kansas through its Extension Division may be of service to them. Ralph Spotts, the state organizer of the Extension Division will spend the summer in visiting the Normal Institutes held in the counties of Kansas. Last week the institutes being held at Olathe, Mound City, and Salina were visited.
"I find the teachers eager to learn of the helps which the Extension Division may furnish them," the organizer said. "They are especially suited to the opportunities offered for home-study through the correspondence courses."
The Extension Division is also furnishing loan sets of lantern slides to the Institutes. Some of these sets cover some of the work being done by the players, as well as a more general character, as the Passon Play of Ober-Ammergau.
Among the towns which will probably be visited by Ralph Spotts are: Garnett, Iola, Pittsburg, Independence, Fredonia, Yates Center, El Dorado, Wichita, Hutchinson, New Albany, Mifflin-Haskell, Hiawatha, Seneca, Washington, Mankato, Norton, Abilene, Concordia, Larned, Leibnitz, Pratt, and Topela.

THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANASAS SUMMER SESSION.
THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
Published in the afternoon of Tuesday and Friday by students in the department of Journalism, from the press of the Department of Journalism.
Application made for entry as second-class matter at the postoffice at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879.
Subscription price twenty-five cents for the six weeks' session.
Phones: Bell K. U. 25, Home 1165
Address all communications to THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN,
Lawrence, Kansas.
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1912.
A story is going the rounds of an absent-minded Kansas professor who was told by the bank teller that his account was overdrawn $8.65. The professor apologized profusely and reaching for his check book promptly drew up a check on his account for the $8.65
AFTER THE FRATERNITIES
Nowadays, when the order of business in the state legislature drags, some long-haired solon from a backwoods district will arise from his seat and propose to abolish the fraternities from the state university. In two or three states he has been successful, and just now in a dozen more he is making the fight a hot one for all concerned.
There is neither time nor inclination to go into the different arguments for and against the college fraternity. Sufficient it is to say that the various legislatures are tilting at windmills, and had better be debating the aesthetic and uliitarian phases of pie for breakfast. Fraternities are no longer amusements; they are institutions. In twenty-five years the number enrolled in national fraternities has arisen from 72,000 to 270,000. The undergraduate membership in a normal year now ranges between thirty and thirty-five thousand, and of 1,700 chapters, 1,100 own or rent houses, which at a conservative estimate are valued at more than 88,000,000.
It is our humble opinion that legislatures may resolve, propose, and enact from now until doomsday and while the subject may furnish abundant material for displays of set-pieces on pure democracy, the fraternity idea will prevail in some form or other as long as men and women in every activity of life seek out congenial associates
*****
"I'm pretty well up on the statutes," he replied.
But we are reassured. The late Senator George G. Vest was once examining the son of an old friend for admission to the Missouri bar. The young man whom the Senator wished to favor, failed miserably in torts and the quiz was shifted to real property. He fared little better here and the Senator in desperation asked the applicant what he would liked to be examined in.
"Ah," said the Senator, "but what's to prevent some fool legislature from repealing all the law you know?"
DO NOT PLAY ENOUGH
The time will come, says the president of Brown University, when the father, instead of paying $3,000 for an automobile for his boy and putting him under a $700 teacher, will pay $3,000 for his teacher and $700 for the automobile.
The thinking world today is agreed that it is better to play yourself than it is to watch other people play. When we make of a game a spectacle, it becomes a kind of out-of-doors theatrical. It is amusement for the spectators and work for the participants, and is not properly play for either. It may be a very pleasant
sort of work, just as any dramatic performance may be. It may be well worth for both the spectators and participants in the same way. But play is an activity that is carried on for its own sake, for the joy of playing, and a game that is fought out for the glory of the school or the fame or popularity of the players is no less "professional" because it is paid for in higher values than money. It is all right to go to the theater, and professional baseball, whether in the American League or the American college, serves a real purpose; but it must be evident that it has not the power to renew and recreate the body, mind, and emotions that active play has. We as a people do not play enough. We loaf too much, and work too much, but of real play of the energy-producing kind there is a dearth. We get dyspeptic and anaemic and nervous from lack of exercise, and despondent from brooding over things that we ought to throw off in recurrent periods of joyous play. When we have a holiday, many of us do not know what to do with our leisure
The freshmen at Cornell who walked through Morrell hall on their way to Registrar Hoy's office were greeted by a message from Andrew D White, first president, giving them some advice. The greeting was posted on the official bulletin board. It follows:
"The undersigned presents his best wishes to the class of 1914, now entering and begs leave to commend its attention to the following from Josh Billings:
"Konsider the postage stamp, my son; its usefulness konsists in its ability to stick to one thing until it gets there."
"Very Respectfully,
"Andrew D. White."
In the dining room of a hotel at Nice, on a huge placard posted over the mantel-piece, you read the following:
"Our English visitors are kindly requested to address the waiters and servants in English, as their college French is not generally understand."
Chaucey Depew was once asked why a man was called college breed. "I suppose," said Mr Depew, "it is because his college life is usually a four years' loaf."
COLLEGE DAYS OF OLD
The reminiscences of former President Angell of Michigan University tell of his boyhood's schooling and how in the little district school in Rhode Island, where he went, the boys used to make their own copy books by sewing unruled paper into rough brown paper covers and then cutting it out. He was sent away to school he found that he was ahead of the other boys in arithmetic, so it was decided that he should give all his time to Latin. He says that his intensive schooling did him much good. The master, whose own habit was to drill the boys in grammar for two years, put him in charge of his sister who gave the pupil instead a book of easy reading lessons with the paradigms, and when he had read through it he was taken to a theatre for three years of boys who had been at work two years. He at last entered Brown University and says of this opportunity: "To us country boys as we entered upon college life nothing was more fascinating and more novel and helpful than access to the well-furnished libraries. Boys who are reared in the neighborhood of libraries can have no appreciation of the sensations which we country lads, whose supply of books had been most meagurously insatiable, experienced in being ushered into a large library and told that all these books were now at our service."
He goes on to describe the literary partizanisms that flourished in those days (today the lads are contesting the abilities of some athletic champion or at most a political hero). He says: "Men were divided as Carlylists or anti-Carlyliests, Coleridgians or anti-Coleridgians, and literary, philosophic and historic theories were discussed as hotly as the current political questions of the day"

A new ten commandments, which the people of Reggio, in northern Italy, have lately adopted, is of wide interest. The new dealogue is not primarily for grownups, but for the children of the town, and it is expected that the little folks will, in their school, learn the ten rules by heart.

FRIENDSHIP OF BOOKS
Happy is he who, when the day's work is done, finds his rest, and solace and recreation in communion with the master minds of the present and of all that which we enjoy the enjoyment of pleasures which are to be derived from this source. I would say there is no rest, no recurrence, no jaded body and mind, no jaded and jaded body and mind, worn by work and toil, equal to the intellectual pleasures to which I have just been referrenced. We will come when the pleasures that now allure them and draw them away from intellectual pursuits will come to dominate their bodily vigor. Let them again trust to one who is advancing fast in declining years—there is no joy in equal treasures which are great intellectual treasures which are at hand and always at your disposal.
—LORD CHIEF JUSTICE COCKBURN.
More Slang.
Anent the agitation against slang brought about by a story in the University Daily Kansan, the mountainous browed east is just now terribly concerned over the growth of slang in our best girl's colleges or the best colleges for our girls, whichever we choose. The east has had three surprises of late. One was the cordial invitation for young women to enter the Ullitzer school of journalism; another was the edict of theatrical manager that the tall woman was passe while the third was a plaint from Wellesley that the language indulged in by the young women of that select community was "something fierce." The Wellesley cynic didn't use exactly these words, but smoke to the same effect.
It is a standing stock and oncefunny joke that the papers try to work off occasionally about the blossoming forth of our male youth on entering the halls of erudition—how they come back home with a vocabulary whose length and breadth would require fifteen thousand words attributed to Shakespeare So Miss Helen Logan, editor of the Wellesley College Nws, has come to the defense of the college boy's sister, as against the purist critics on the faculty. If boys can rant around with more or less effective speech why should not the girls be permitted to indulge in milder, raucous laughter? "awfully crazy about," "the courage de amour Miguel," or "for the love of Mike," "wild over," "oh goh!" "greasy grind," and "pimin?"
Now, why should our well educated young girls be restricted. This is a country of free speech, and freedom is seized on more or less as an excuse for slang. Take for example the potent “b-e-l-i-e-v-e-me”! Is that slang? Perhaps a preferential primary would result in its rejection. Yet, say the defenders of slang, how persuasive the phrase when it is used in that tautful classic—“Believe Me, if All Those Endearing,” etc.? or to take Shakespeare for proof. One might think that the recaller of judges and the one who would both initiate and referendum is the coiner of “Bully!” Not a bit of it. Go look up your drama or to return to “believe me,” long drawn out and convincing. That phrase also occurs in “The Taming of the Shrew.” Chaucer was an honest old soul when it came to words, yet he employed “come off” with impunity. The opinion opinion question is that while slang is not very elegant, it is convenient, and if used long enough will be adopted into the full fellowship of Webster. Why not let the girls use slang? We probably can not prevent their doing so, anyhow.
THREE AGES
In boyhood do we plan
With most ambitious soul;
There is no dream too great
And so with rosy hopes The White House is our goal .
To be within control, And so with rosv hones
There is no dream too great To be within control,
In youth still fairer plans
Our ardent breasts imbue We do not care for fame,
So blissfully we scheme A cottage built for two.
A humbler roof may do,
But come to later years
nese all take second place, There is a greater need.
We make a sterner race. With ever leaner nurse
The porterhouse we chase. New York Sun.
Salvation Army Lady—What do you boys do with your old clothes?
Stude—Well, personally, for the last couple of years I've been wearing mine.

THE SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
CLASSES DISMISSED WHEN WHISTLE BLOWS
System Which Proved Success Last Semester to Be Used in Summer Session
in Summer Session
The system of regulating the dismissal of University classes by blasts from the whistle at the power plant will be continued during the Summer Session. All classes will stop as soon as the whistle blows. It was found in the last regular semester that tardiness and delay in the opening of class sessions were much reduced after the whistle signal system was adopted.
HOUR SCHEDULE
Following is the schedule arranged by the Walker, director of the Summer Session:
Five hour credit classes occupy the entire time of students, so that no conflicts can arise and the hours may be available to the convenience of the instructor and class.
The morning is divided into three hour-and-a-half periods for three-hour credit classes, namely, 7:30 to 9, 9 to 10:30, and 10:30 to 12; and into four one-hour periods for two-hour credit classes, namely, 8 to 9, 9 to 10, 10 to 11, and 11 to 12. These periods will be marked by short blasts of the whistle.
The time needed for changing from one class to another will be taken from the beginning of each period. This time is understood to be ten minutes, unless the instructor finds that all members of his class come from rooms in the same building, when five minutes will suffice.
The whistles will blow as follows: At 7:30, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 10:30, 11:00, and 12:00 o'clock.
Each blast is the signal for the immediate dismissal of all classes scheduled to stop at a certain time, and is also a warning that classes scheduled to meet at that time will meet in ten (or five) minutes.

TOO MANY DIMES AND
DOLLARS IN ONE LIFE
So Says Ethel Allen Hamilton in Annual Alumni Address
Ethel Allen Hamilton, A. B. 'S2, A. M. '85, was the speaker at the alumni meeting yesterday before noon and in her address on "The Meaning of Success" sounded a warning against too much materialism entering it's thinking of whether a person has achieved what the world knows as success.
That the scope of our judgment is measured by dimes and dollars was the declaration of the speaker and she pleaded for the institution in order to fulfill his responsibilities; every one should know his neighbor and to appreciate his feelings

The engineering students of the University of Pittsburgh will have their year divided into four terms. Three of these will be spent at the university and the fourth in practical work in industrial establishments in Pittsylvania and vicinity, co-operating with the university.

"The state should provide six inspectors of weights and measures," say Professor Stimpson, "who would give their entire time protecting buyers and sellers in the state. These inspectors would cost the state about $9,000 a year; I think it would be glad to pay this just to learn who lost and who got the $155,000 on this year's wheat crop."
For, according to tests in Deputy Sealer Stimpson's office at the University of Kansas, one wagon scale out of every three in the state, is "oil" ten pounds to the ton. Two hundred have been tested and Professor Stimpson is sure this percentage will prevail on the others.

AMMONS MAY RETURN AS ASSISTANT COACH
Popular Captain and Senior President Is Shated for Mosse's Helper
Prospects for Winning Team Bright to Man Looking Through a
NO GLOOM TO BE NOTICED
With the departure of Cochal Ralph Sherwin last week, and the appearance in Lawrence of Arthur St. Lenger Mosse, who has been chosen head coach in the Jayhawk camp, there is much speeches and action for a winning football team next fall.
Arthur St. Leger is a rather reticent fellow, and just now he is of the opinion that it is best not to venture a guess on what will be doing within the first two months after college opens next year.
Bramwell, the two Woodhursts, Davidson, Price, Hell and Davidson have all

EARL AMMONS
announced that they will not be back to school to try for the team and they must be considered out of the running. Earl Ammons, captain of the team last year, will probably return to school as an assistant coach.
Delaney, who played so much havev with the opposing teams with his kickling, will not be in the game because of inability. Out of the squad, then, from last year it leaves Captain Brownlee, Weideilin, Mackill, Coolidge, Davis, Wilson, Schwab, Burnham Tudor and Hoffman as the nucleus around which Coach Mosse will build his football machine.
In Hatcher and Butler, both members of the freshmen team, will be found a pair of tackles that are hard to beat. Last year they played havoc with the varsity line and both of them are out doing "the heavy" this summer and will be in the best possible condition by next September. Wiedemann, a former member who did not get out last year, has signified his intention of donning the moleskins and will make some one bump to beat him. Spellings and Harrell both played end on the freshman team and will be found in suits next fall.
FOLLOW ON! Take your cue from the Young bloods. See where They go for Their Clothes. If we can satisfy the most critical young fellows in Lawrence ---and that's what we are doing----we can surely satisfy anyone.
Just who will be the quarterback of the team, to take the place of "Pete" Hell, will have to be settled next fall. At the present time, there are Wilson, who was a substitute last fall, Magellan who seems to be the only other man in the squad, and the number of field general, and "Dutch" Martin of the freshman squad.
But it is in the line that will be found all that any coach could ask. Milton at center for the freshmen practically cinched his position by his steller performance against anything that the varsity ever placed against him. The player who had played vensity center before him he is the best one of the lot.
But all followers of the game has year will remember that the yearling team under the direction of Coach Bond was of winning caliber and had the habit of giving the variety all they could do to hold them.
And then it must be remembered that Ed Stueve is going to return to college, that the eligibility committee at its last meeting applied the white wash to him, and when the whistle blows next fall "Butch" will be found in his regular position tearing things un at full back.
The rush for our new gray, tan and blue suits, featured at $15,$20 and $25, is increasing every hour. We are showing a tremendous variety of these in all sizes, English and Conservative styles, and the handsomest patterns ever seen in men's clothes. An $20 especially big showing at .
In Welch, Blianco, Ammons, Harrell Martin, K. Hamilton, Wright, Russell, and Rhine the coach has a world of good material from which to pick one player. He is the guard who excels the crimson and the blue. All of them have played on high school and military academy teams and possess a fund of real football knowledge. Hamilton and Welch are two Central High school boys and are whirlwinds. "Dutch" he is拼命 his job is the fastest man on the squad and is sure of a regular berth.

Smiles and Tears Close Together at Class Day Exercises
There was joy and happiness, with a trace of sadness, yesterday at the annual class day exercises . To the four hundred and fifty seniors who received their degrees this morning, it meant the culmination of a four year's companionship with college friends; it marked the parting of the ways, and was the formal farewell to professors, to the buildings and to friends.

From Fraser Hall the procession, headed by the University band, marched to Green Hall, where Alston McCarty made the farewell address. He said that the memory of "Uncle Jimmie" Green and the Law School would always linger in the minds and hearts of the graduates as it had done in the past. Mr. McCarty stated that there were few law offices in Kansas that did not have the picture of "Uncle Jimmie" hung in a conspicuous place. "Uncle Jimmie," in response, congratulated the students on the success.

"We had 167 enrolled in the school this year and that used to be a good sized college you know," continued the professor. "I have asked the Regents for $40,000 for next year and if we get that we will have a better opportunity."
The last speech of the morning was a farewell to the Engineering School. Arch MacKinnon made the talk and was responded by Prof W. C.

Professor Road pointed out that there were a great many problems of public service for the graduates of the Engineering School to tackle when they get 'out in the field' and then building the crowd gathered around the Toten pole for the exercises.

ARE HOT ON TRAIL OF "LOST" GRADUATES
AlumniSecretary'sOffice Uses Old Sleuth Methods to Find Them
CATALOG TO BE ISSUED SOON
Will be a Book of 400 Pages Containing 5000 Names With Addresses And Occupations
The big "round up" of alumni that is made every three years when the alumni catalog is issued in printed form is now in progress. Constant effort is made, of course, by the alumni secretary's office to keep the information as to the addresses and occupations of alumni up to date; but when the time comes to put out the printed list there is a special search made for those who have wandered off into unknown byways and got themselves "lost."
Out of 5000 alumni, with scores of changing addresses every month, there are always about a hundred on the lost list. These are found by various Sherlockian methods, through students of different professions or postmasters or government offices or teachers' agencies or church organizations. A permanent record is kept of the manner by which each wanderer from the fold was restored. If he wanders a second time it is an easy matter to remember where, whom it seems that nothing short of a Burns agency could keep track of.
The "copy" for the new catalog will be ready for the printer July first. There will be nearly five thousand names, arranged by classes and alphabetically, and the edition have close to 100 copies. The author will be required to supply all the alumni and others who are interested in the list.
BLIZZARD HEMS IN Y.M.C.A. DELEGATES
Tables will be included showing the number of alumni engaged in the different occupations, and also the number living in each state and country. The women who are "keeping house" and those who are merely "at home" and those who are "engaged in" or "practising" something or other may be compared in number from the tables, as may also the men who were graduated in law and became ministers and those who studied pharmacy or engineering and landed on the farm.
The catalog will probably be ready for distribution by September 1.
DO WOMEN REALLY WANT THE BALLOT?
A Canvass Will Be Made of Summer School Students to Find Out
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1912.
A canvass of the students of the Summer Session will be conducted next week in the interest of Equal Suffrage. The work will be carried on by a committee of ten men and women, to be appointed tomorrow by the Board of Trustees membership extension committee of the Kansas Equal Suffrage League.
The work of these departments is in charge of the state officers of the league. The State President is Mrs. Huey Peeves, wife of the Chief Justice of the state.
Dr. Corbin said that during the week, every student in the Summer Session would receive literature concerning Equal Suffrage.
"We have two objects in undertaking this canvas," said Dr. Corbin. "First, to find the attitude of the Summer Session students toward the Suffrage Amendment, to be voted on, November 5th; and second, to secure workers for the summer campaign in the four departments of Equal Suffrage work, education, finance, membership extension and press."
Dr. Corbin is conducting the canvass for the Executive Board of the Douglas County Equal Franchise League.
Estes Park Snows Preven Kansas Men Breaking Up Camp
TWO HUNDRED IN ATTENDANCE
Conference Drew Sixty Odd Kansan and Despite Bad Wenther Meetings Were Highly Successful
(By Roy Stockwell)
Special to the Summer Session Kansan:
Estes Park, Colo., June 17—Fifty miles from a railroad, the delegate to the Rocky Mountain Student Conference of Young Mens' Christian Associations are today compelled to remain in camp on account of the greatest storm that has struck this region during the month of June in more than twenty years. The conference closed last night and but for the heavy snow which fell last night and today, the camp would now be deserted. An automobile stage line is the only means rainfall, fifty miles distant, and the road, which runs for half the distance through the canyon of the Big Thompson river, is at places very dangerous and well night impassable.
An advance guard of six cars left the camp at four o'clock this morning and reached Fort Collins late this afternoon. Dr. W. K. C Payne and Mr. and Mrs. Gco. O. Foster of Lawrence were passengers on these cars. The other K. U. delegates, C. F. Hanson, E. E. Stephens, Roy Stockwell, Ralph Yeoman, Wayne Edwards, Fred Soper, and Allen Wilber, are still at the camp but to get away toorrow.
Over two-hundred college men from the Rocky Mountain region attended the conference, sixty-odd coming from Kansas. Among the conference leaders were Dr. John Timothy Stone of Chicago, Fred B. Smith of New York, A. J. Elliott, and C. D. Hurry of the International Committee of the Y. M. C. A., Arthur Rugh, an International Secretary for China, Wilberforce University. Student Volunteer Movement, President Culbertson of Emporia College, William E. Sweet and H. W. Moore of Denver, Rev. Holt of Manhattan, Rev. Charles M. Sheldon of Topeka, and Mr. A. A. Hyde of Wichita.
Prof. and Mrs. C. A. Johnson are spending the summer in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

A recent communication to the Summer Session Kansan signed "Patricia" and setting forth in strong terms the writer's objections to a few women trying to force suffrage on a large number who are entirely uninterested in the matter, and feel that the ballot should be left to the men, has evoked a number of replies from others for and against this sentiment.
"O, my!" student, grapped a summer school girl, struggling up the hill early this morning on her way to the library, "I do believe this is the steepest place on the hill, but I'll take my time this morning for today is longer than yesterday and longer than tomorrow will be."
And so it is the longest day of the year, for Old Sol has reached the limit of his north-bound journey. After ingering for fourteen hours
Bernice French, Hannah Mitchell,
Lillian Watkins, Gladys Clark and
Edith Van Emmon will leave Tuesday
for Niagara to attend the Chi Omega national convention June 29
The latest move on the part of the anti-suffragists is the calling of a meeting.
Today he is directly above that imaginary line, which mortals of the planet, earth, call the Tropic of Cancer. It was early, 4:34 by the University clock, when this friend of summer time cleared the horizon and began his daily routine of duties. Tonight at 7:28 you may see him disappear taking with him the longest day in the year.
and fifty-four minutes, he will again retrace his path to the southland.
FOUR BETAS OFFER AND TAKE SCIENCE COURSE
Out at the Beta chapter house four independent young K. U. students are defying the wiles of landliness and maintaining a self-taught course in domestic science three times a day. In other words, the said students have cut loose from all boarding house allegiance and are hurling food for them.

THE TIRED LANDLADY WHO WANTED A GOOD LONG REST
All are happy and getting fat.
The last trunk had been dumped into the express wagon and the last group of girls were telling the landlady good-bye. It was the end of the spring term and the time the tree landlady long fored, as she noticed the girls were getting more noisy every day.
Yes, there was no one to interrupt her and everything was quiet and still, too still for that noisy house. She began on some needle work which she had started in the fall, and had worked on between times during the winter.
"Now for a three months' rest with no one to interrupt me every minute," she said audibly as she closed the door and went back into the dining room.
"What a slam upstairs. The girls have left some windows open and the wind is blowing the doors shut." Upstairs she rushed.
As she hurried through the halls she noticed a deserted look but did not take time to see what caused it. It resembled an abandoned building that the empty space in the corner where
the trunks had been gave the whole hall an emptiness that was disquieting
out an emptiness that was disquiring.
She opened the door to one of the rooms very cautiously, just to see how girls had left things in their rooms. Walls were stripped of their decorations. Study tables were cleaned; they had been used for were the lines of dust around the edge of the surface where books had been piled. Papers were scattered over the floor. There was every sign that the occupants had left in a hurry. The tired landlady cleaned the room in one day. Then she turned her nose at nothing, rested her tired out,Nothing suited her and she had nothing with which to occupy her time. In about a week after the girls left a neighbor noticed a printed sign in the tired landlady's front window. It read:

WHEELS GOING ROUND AT THAT MOMENT A IN CLAY TESTING LAB. PISTOL SHOT RANG OUT
All New Machinery Will in Working Order By July 1st
TO HELP KANSAS INDUSTRIES
Deposits in Kansas Clay Banks Will
be Checked up and Their Usefulness Measured
Most of the machinery for the clay testing laboratory has been installed and is now being tried out Mr. Wolfe, in charge of the laboratory hopes to have everything in good running order by July 1.
Samples of clay from the clay banks of Pittsburg, Paola, Parsons, Chanute, Wear City, Salina and other places are in the laboratory ready for testing. The tests will be both physical and chemical. Physically the clay will be tested to determine plasticity, viscosity, vitrifying point, melting point, amount of water used in working, shrinkage in drying and in using the material. The test will show composition and quality. The tests are practical and utilitarian and will be of great benefit to clay workers.
If a man owns a clay bank, it is the purpose of the University to tell him the quality of the clay and whether it is best adapted for paving brick, facing brick or other uses. Paving brick is of a higher quality than facing, or building brick, and at present there is great demand for it. Consequently if some brick plant should be using paving clay for the manufacture of facing brick there is a loss of profit.
Most of the Kansas clay is used for brick making and tile making, for roofs and drains. Some of it is also used to ware, electric conduits and the like.

AND CHARLEY GOT THE WATCH
One of the beautiful walks where Summer Session students loiter between classes
Only a Slender Clue, But Deduction of Chief Engineer Led Him to the Culprit
When Charley Griffith, chief engineer of the power plant, went to blow the whistle to call the eleven o'clock classes Wednesday, he looked confidently at the nail on which hung his watch. It was gone.
After he had blown the whistle by
guess he set about to look for a clue.
Not a soul had been in sight all
morning; seddon did any one come near
the power plant, and the engineer
was mystified.
He began a survey of the building. About ten feet from the south side there is a soft piece of loam made soft by the rain. Here he stopped. There in the soft earth were footprints.
"The prints show only the toes, Watson," said the engineer, speaking to himself, unconsciously slipping into the character he loves to read about. And the prints showed contentment as a result. The owner was torn that the owner was running.
Procuring a microscope, Mr. Grif fitt, studied each track. On each right foot-print, there was a peculiar break in the ground which under thе water left a small pouch a clayey deposit, farther on, seve pegs were distinguished in the patch
This was the only clue to the miscreant. With his friend, G. W. Hazard, Engineer Griffith, started out on a road trip in the city of Lawrence. Ostensibly the try were trying to employ a couple young men to herd cattle. Fifty applicants were put through a test the would have done credit to a city service examination. But eagle ones each right shoe of the plicants.
Late in the afternoon, the two tlemen found a boy who wore a sition which seemed to answer the decision and they said they would him. On the way back to the verity, however, the youth began get suspicious, and seizing a worth started to run away at a pace culated to leave all pursurers in background.
Engineer Griffith was not to disappoint this late in the g when he had what he was sure to. the right man almost in his clutches and gave chase together with his friend Hazard. The boy was that friend a great new person difficult to follow, but Charley Griffith was soon on him, and called a police-man to whom he delivered the young culprit.
The boy gave his name as Dyche Carter and said that he lived in North Lawrence. He said that he did not have the watch, but had given it to his uncle who also lived in North Lawrence. The police soon found the uncle and recovered the Griffith blows the whisk on the exact dot as recorded by his trusty watch which has done service for twenty-seven years.

HELPING THE POOR BOY
HELPIING THE FOOK BOT
Andrew Carnegie's ten million dollar gift to the University of Edinburgh to assist poor boys has proved a failure, according to a report from that institution. It is pointed out that the great Scottish university is getting as many students but that they are of a different class than formerly, then their assets were poverty plus brains and a special desire for learning, today their assets poverty minus brains and a special desire for learning.
As in the United States, there have been in England youths who have had a burning desire to "know" for its own sake. Again as in this country, these boys were poor, and the University of Edinburgh provided every facility for them to "make their way." Not by making the work easy, but by giving them opportunities to earn their bread and butter while attending school, the university authorities gave real assistance 'the poor boy.
Enter Andrew Carnegie. Anxious to help these poor boys he offered the university ten million dollars. The lft was held up for several years. The hard-headed Scottish educators noted to think about it. They sued that this fund would induce ys to enter the university who had special desire for education; it ould appeal to them as an easy dor, or following the line of the mous resistance the youth of twenty tive chose a scholarship It was mos' accepted.

ser FIGHTING PELLAGRA
Pellagran, that mysterious disease,
more horrible than leprosy, and more
fatal than cholera, has appeared
in several localities in Kansas, will
be fought with all the scientific skill
the University of Kansas can muster.
The disease first appears as an affection of the skin, later developing severe constitutional and nervous disorders, a wasting away of the flesh, and then insanity. While it is peculiar to northern Italy, several hundred cases have appeared within ten years in Georgia and Kentucky. The first case in Kansas appeared in Oswego in 1911. Italy offered a king's ransom for a cure or preventive, the celebrated Lombroso spent his life trying to learn its secret; both were unavailing.
Professor Hunter of the entomology department began his work on pelagia last fall. He will first try to learn if the disease is carried by
mms. To this end he has cultivated blies in an artificial stream and will be allowed to bite a pellagronent. Five monkeys arrived at University from Africa last week. These flies will be allowed to bite the monkeys in an attempt to find out that carries the disease.
With this found, the medical school take up the fight and search forum that will counteract the grra germs.
other theory is that the disease
is caused by mal-nutrition. An investigation along this line will also be carried on by the University.
- BOYS BETTER IN "MATH"
The relative mathematical abilities of boys and girls and of the white race as compared with the black are among the subjects taken up in a monograph just issued by the United States Bureau of Education. The monograph is entitled "Mathematics in the Public and Private Secondary Schools of the United States," and considers the ability of the boys and girls as shown only in the type of school indicated by the title.
"It it seems to be the general opinion that the average boy shows more ability in mathematics than the average girl, but also that he does not work so faithfully," says the monograph. "In a mixed class this greater ability of the boy and the greater faithfulness of the girl react most advantageously on each other."
"Another fact that is noted is this: In elementary algebra the girl does as good work as the boy; in geometry not nearly so good. In advanced algebra and trigonometry the boy shows an ability which is far ahead of the girl. Yet, we are free to confess that his greater natural ability is often outclassed by the steady, patient endeavor of the girl. Perhaps it would be safer to say that the girl does not show as great an ability as the boy, even though she may have it. "In regard to the relative tendency of boys and girls to choose elective courses in mathematics the answers to a questionnaire indicate that boys are much more inclined to elect such courses than girls are."
In investigating the relative mathematical ability of the colored race, a questionnaire was sent to eleven well-known Negro schools and colleges in the South. "The general feeling in the institutions covered by this report," says the monograph, "is that the difference between the races in the matter of mathematics, in so far as any difference exists, are due to conditions rather than to race characteristics. Five of the schools feel that there is no difference due to race. Two are of the opinion that colored students generally are not the equals of white students. One school was not able to make any comparison. Three did not reply to the question regarding a comparison of the races. Replies were made by both white and colored teachers who have had years of experience in colored schools and in some cases in white schools.
MEIKLEJOHN TO AMHERST
MEIKLEJOHN TO AMHERST
In electing Dean Meiklejohn of Brown its next president, Amherst has gone directly against a current which has resulted recently in the bringing to New England colleges of so many Western educators. It has also, for only the second time in its history, selected a non-Amherst man for its executive. But it is not likely that there will be any persons who will find fault with the choice. Dr. Meiklejohn has a splendid record as an administrator; President Faune, indeed, describes him as the ablest college dean in the country. But he is primarily a teacher and his present associates are unanimous in the belief that he will not consent permanently to surrender this part of his work. And if he doesn't, Amherst will again be the gainer, for his courses in logic at 'Brown are regarded as about as good as any that the University has to offer.
The Johns Hopkins University News-Letter has completed a tabulation of the amounts of money made by Hopkins's undergraduate students during the scholastic year. About one-third of the students, of fifty, work, and their earnings for the eight months total $7,000. Every variety of occupation is represented, newspaper work, chemical experimentation, computer work, and the largest individual amount is $800, made from newspaper work and magazine contributions. One student averages $50 a month from short stories and verse, and one naively confesses that he wins $5 a month at poker.-The Daily Student, Indiana University.

DR. DAVID SNEDDEN ON LIBERAL EDUCATION
--of Eye, Hand or Foot.
"Neither parents nor public are satisfied with results," says Dr Snedken in his article, "What of his educational education?" in a monthly issue of January, 1912. "Institutions are inefficient in their methods and much of the work done is without a clear purpose and is, therefore, largely浅 as regards the inner ends of a liberal education.
"While vocational education trains man to be a producer, "the essence of liberal education," he says, "is found in the conception of man as a user," and only that education which trains a man to appreciate the labors of others, to enjoy the highest degree of satisfaction, to cast a wise wite role, to sympathize with all humanity, is really liberalizing. And it is doubtful, in the mind of Dr. Sneden, whether, Latin, algebra, chemistry, and even history, taught with only the aim of mastery in view, are really liberalizing. Every subject taught should use to the extent dent brought into hand. How high school Latin is really useful?
Dr. Snedden says in effect that we should attempt to educate the tastes rather than to give a store of classical information. If teachers do not do this, advertising will, for the annual expenditures of advertising exceed by 30 percent all organized education, and advertising is a large factor in deciding what people wear, what they eat, what they do and see. It is the business of the really liberal education to safeguard against undesirable outside influences which will later attempt to direct the choice of the pupil. The teacher must compulsory study of Latin, Greek, algebra and Shakespeare, which he does not consider directly related to modern life. "Not in the things of the past," he says, "but in those of the present should education find its beginning and its results."
STUDENT OPINION
The editor is not responsible for the views expressed here. Communications must be signed as an evidence of good faith.
Editor Summer Session Kansan:
Editor Summer Session Kansas:
The University of Kansas, like most great universities of the day, is making special effort to come into closest touch with the people, and to demonstrate its eminently practical side, along with the development of the humanities. It seeks to be a great laboratory, where the problem is worked on in miniature. In this it has been highly successful in many fields. I wish to suggest a fall butfertile field for further experimentation that will be of general value.
New theories in the science of government are plentiful, and experiments are to be seen at many places. But other theories should be worked out in actual practice and the results presented. I shall make no suggestion as to the use of the initiative, the referendum, the recall, the priory of a new constitution to be taught of the class or student activities. But tht growth of all these ideas in different states and nations, warrants the student of civics in seeking how more fully to secure the full, free expression of the voters when he votes whether on men or measures. At present voters are generally given the choice to choose two men or two measures, though they may not like either. They cannot agree on a general average or find a golden mean. The tendency of the times is to array them in extremes. Here certain theorists come in with plans as of proportional representation and the preferential ballot. These theories could profitably explain why not try them out and University. Why not try them out and give the state of Kansas the benefit of the results?
For example, where a number of persons are to be chosen to a board or body of two or more members, let them be chosen by some one of the several plans of proportional representation, such as the single-vote, Hare, Hare-Speech, Hare-Cridge, or the restrictive, the cumulative, the governor, the Gove plan, or other form of effective voting. Then it may be demonstrated which of these would prove most suitable to our people.
Or, the preferential ballot may be tried, wherein each voter casts his vote for every candidate for any one office, but indicates his preference among the candidates by marking them 1, or 2, or 3, etc., according to his preference. Such system has greatly been desired in the primary elections and has been embodied in the practice of voting well as elsewhere, but what is needed is to work out a simple, practical plan for counting the votes afterwards, especially the choices after the first, under our system of precinct voting, county canvass of precincts and state canvass of counties. The preferential ballot offers a solution of the lills that follow the naming of a candidate or official by more plurality vote, as it assures a majority choice. But a way to count the voter confusion needs to be developed.
Here is a fine and absorbing field for 'laboratory' work. Respectfully submitted, J. C. Rupenthal.
CULTURE OF WESTERN COLLEGE
Calvin Dill Wilson, who has just published through McClung's a book on "Working One's Way Through College and University" has some definite notions about the Western university as distinguished from the Eastern university.
"the University of the West," he says, "may be declared to be in a special sense the university of the future. Already the cosmopolitan center of the world, she carries a distinction among knowing people that is quite equal to that of Yale, Harvard or Princeton. The elderly man of the middle West tells you with pride that he is a graduate of Yale; the man of middle life in the same region tells you with greater confidence as the omaha of the University of Michigan.
- Governor Foss of Vermont will
    lead the state in a bid to
    return from the University of Vermont,
    year
"It seems to us, though the proposition would be widely disputed, that the Western university man has that great thing, modernity, above the Eastern graduate. Many people are of this opinion and we are already in the midst of a time when students from the West are not attending Eastern schools except for specific ends that cannot be attained elsewhere. Students in the middle West are turning their faces toward the great institutions that lie in the direction of the Pacific."
Take This!
A supplementary course on "The Advantages of Lawrence" is offered to all Summer Session Students. You can arrange the hours to suit yourself and the "credit" will be in proportion to the thoroughness with which you pursue the subject. You can make it a purely cultural course by putting emphasis on the historic and scenic features of the town—and that line of study will bring rich returns. But if you wish something of a "practical" nature you will investigate the trade advantages of this place, which offers you the markets of a city without the corresponding prices. Judicious buying in Lawrence will enable any student to save the cost of a Summer Session course.

How One Girl Worked Her Way Through College
The opinions and experiences of a Wellesley girl who worked her way through College, as told by herself in the New York Times.:
It has always caused me muei amusement to hear sober, sensible people of this modern age exclaim at the thought of a girl's working her way through college, apparently thinking it either a quixotic undertaking or one fraught with hard labor, struggles against snobbishness, and bitter self-denial. *"* Personally, I think that a girl who has worked her way through college, as a rule, comes out a hundred richer for her experience.
It is advisable for a girl to meet her own expenses and study, at the same time.
My instructor in high school engl-
lish, a Smith College graduate, once
gave me a very different answer to these
questions. I had asked her if it would
be wise to go to college with the little
student that I should have at my dismal
"No," she said, "unless there is a solutely no other way, it wouldn't
"No," she said, "unless there is absolutely no other way, it wouldn't." "But," replied I, fresh from one of these very articles about the college girl such as I am writing, "there are plenty of ways for a girl to earn money while at college. Many girls pay all their own expenses."
"That is not what you asked," replied my instructor. "Of course, you can do it. Is it wise? That is another matter."
I have since thought of her explanation, but at the time it was the possibility of earning my way through college which I considered. There are many girls just out of high school looking at the question as I looked at it.
Is it possible, they ask, for a girl to raise $500—the average amount required in a girl's college to meet reasonable expense—and study at the same time? With the hope of throwing light on the far more important consideration—is it wise?—I am going to the college experiences of my college chum and myself viewed in the light of the dollar sirn.
We came to Wellesley College, Eleanor and I, with $300 and the brisk resolution to "work our way through." We had the assurance of some help from home to supplement the $300, but by no means enough to meet even the bare $450 required by the college for tuition, board and room.
Our first help was our most substantial. We were admitted to the table of one of Wellesley's two co-operative dormitories, where by one hour's domestic work a day $100 was deducted from our bill for board. The co-operators and the students most practical ways in which a college can help girls to earn money.
The work is not heavy—Eleanor washed glasses and silver and swept the reception room; I washed dishes and later prepared vegetables. All the work of the house except the heavy cleaning, the furnace work, and some of the cooking is done by the girls. The house pays for itself, and considering the amateur nature of most of the service, it is run very smoothly. You earn the same amount of money by earning any of the regular dormitories or boarding houses would have taken about double the time.
Our first payment apiece to the college, then, was—
Tuition ... $175
Board ... 25
$200
Our second payment in February for board would be $50. There was thus $50 of our original $300 unaccounted for, and there were many expenses to
for $4 a week—about $60 a year apiece. There were cheaper rooms without running water, without light, without heat, without space to turn in—about $25 apiece. There was cheapness, but they had been snapped up by enterprising early birds.
We sat down on our unpacked trunks and figured up a round number account for the year like this::
We secured a double room, furnished
Tuition, board and room $310
Traveling expenses 25
Books 15
Fees and organization fees 10
Incidentals 20
Clothes 20
This left about $100 to be earned between October and June. And the next year presented no prospect of a start of $300. There would be $400 to earn instead of $100. It appalled us to see that and we could hardly wait to get work.
First we saved. There was a large laundry connected with our dormitory for the girls' use. Eleanor did all her chores in the laundry bill for the new looked like this:
Soap .40
Starch .10
Bluing .20
70
I sent my laundry home once a month my express at a cost of 70 cents for the round trip, making my laundry expenses for the year a little over five dollars. Books were bought second hand at a saving of about one-half. My first English theme was a sorry哭 because I had spent two weeks in Paris trying to hit it, hunting down bargains in Walter Pater and solid geometry. But I saved.
When it came to earning money Eleanor and I did what almost all impeccable newcomers do—the sweatshop work of the Odd Job at the rate of $14 a day. But of the "jobs" posted on the Christian association bulletins for one week.
Pressing suits, fine launderning, mending clothes, cleaning refrigerator, addressing envelope, washing the piano in the kitchen, dressing costumes for a dance, and typewriting.
Eleanor and I pressed skirts. It was a slow business. I once earned $240 in one week, but it was a week when academic work went to the wall. My preparation for college, like that of many another girl, had been very uneven, and I had all I could do to keep my academic work away from the firing room. I was unable to prepare their twenty plaice aplies, waiting in my closet to be pressed at the week end, were no very great help to my Monday's theme.
As the weeks went on I began to question the Odd Job method of earning a hundred dollars. I realized that there was very little money to be made by selling these clothes myself. In a man's college it is different. Our brothers have more money to spend than we do—they spend less for clothes and more for the things which will contribute to their personal comfort. Girls are more careful and on the lookout for things that they may even if they are in a hurry they pay; at the same rate—20 cents an hour.
I made up my mind as to what was the best way of solving the college expense problem, and resolved to stick to it if possible. I decided to earn only in the direction where I gained either money or income, and to borrow as much as possible.
I had received a loan of $150 from the College Women's Club of New York, and had been reserving that for my sophomore year. Now, however, I resolved to use it for the rest of the year's expenses.
Eleman kept on. She darned stockings, she shampooed hair, she pressed and mended, she wheeled old ladies about the village at the old familiar house. He gave them gifts they gave its annual fair, she sold candy and fancy work and made $11.
I returned to college and put awa
When June came she had met her expenses squarely and was about $50 ahead. I owed $100.
That summer Eleanor sold books. She worked until the middle of August and made $70. She spent the rest of the summer making her clothes. I taught in a vacation school for children and made $60. My academic work had been jerked up sufficiently to enrol me at college, then moved to the college. With work at the co-operative dormitory lifting $100 off, my sophomore year was fairly easy.
the ironing board. I brushed the dust from my German grammar, put more time on my English work, and made some friends.
I obtained the position of principal of the vacation school where I had taught the year before and in the summer preceding my junior year, earned a master's degree. The second scholarship of $150 and remained with the co-operative dormitory for the entire four years. The summer before my senior year I did not try to earn any money. What I was not able to earn in the first four years was summed up by a sum builped by my family.
At the end of all it I had earned at $1,500 of the $2,000 which my college education had cost and had littered the campus with newspapers and newspaper work to my credit.
Eleanor had met her problem differently. She had practically no help from home and had borrowed nothing. She was very ingenious. She could make good salads and soon came to be in demand at the little parties given at the society houses. She often played in the kitchen, table, cooked and served and cleaned up afterward. She rarely received more than $2 for the evening's work.
She took care of two children in the evening when their parents wished to go out, she waited on the table at the College Inn, she prepared laboratory themes and did old jobs as corrected themes, and did old jobs of clerical work.
She learned to dress hair — that paid a little better — 75 cents for a coifure that required but three-quarters of an hour and was guaranteed to stand the strongest wind that ever blew across the Hair stadium on the day of the football game.
On the other hand she cut down her expenses to $400 a year; for instance, $25 for clothes, $12 for books. She gave up her place in the running squad. She joined very few organizations that took time or money; a Greek letter essay was one of their demand of at least $25 and one evening a week was out of the question.
During three years I earned, counting scholarships, about $300 a year. I was taken on the staff of the College News as a result of my improved work in English. That brought in $30 for the first year, and about $140 for my junior year, when I was editor-in-chief. I reorganized the newspaper, besides doing a little miscellaneous newspaper work, making about $100 a year.
Statistics show that ten per cent of the girls of Wellesley college are supporting themselves, wholly or in part, and I should say that three-fourths of them are the same way that Eleanor did with the same expenditure of time and energy.
There is no limit to the clever ways in which girls are meeting their bills. One girl that I knew got up at seven o'clock every winter morning, closed the windows and turned on the heat in from ten to twenty-five rooms of her dormitory. For each privilege of sleeping a minute longer and getting up in a warm room the girls paid five cents.

For many girls, the earning of $1,000 on the strength of their high school education is an absolute impossibility. The girl who lives in the small town is almost helpless. Villagers do not spend a great deal of money; the girl's circle of influential acquaintance is not large; there is practically nothing that she can do without leaving home, and then her living expenses would take about all that she could earn.
I should say to every girl who consulted my opinion: "Earn $1,000 before you go to college. When you get there, do not sap your strength and energy by the sweat work of the old lad."
I have come to a conclusion that tallies with my high school instructor's advice for the girl who contemplates earning her vay through college. Do it only if there is no other way.
Another girl worked three hours a day in the college book store, and afterward in the library for twenty-five cents an hour. The girl who conducted the furniture exchange sold off two hand furniture at a profit of $20 a year. She also made two second hand typewriter, learned to run it, and made $25 besides paying for the noisy nuisance. I remember one entering freshman from the south who did not go home for vacations and packed trunks at an enormous profit. All these things and scores of others any girl can do—but let her not forget the fact that she gets an average of twenty an hour and does them all the time.
To this I should say, borrow all you can and start for college resolved to spend as much intelligence but as money as you can earning money when you get there.
And to that advice must always be added. "if possible."
The very essence of a college education—of any ducation—is, I believe, leisure. Not a luxuriousness that implies doing as you choose, working desultorily, playing much, but a fine leisure of thought which lays deep foundations and builds methods. Because our colleges must reflect the tendencies of the day that leisure is becoming impossible. We are deploring the many activities that are crowding in upon the college curriculum to create self-enrichment with too many subjects. A college student has a great confusion, a hurry, and a multiply of interests to meet at the very start.
When we were graduated from college then, Eleanor had truly worked her way through college; she owed nothing. I had a debt of $250. We both had kept up a good academic standing, graduating on the honor roll.
Consider the actual time at a student's disposal. A girl at Wellesley carries sixteen hours of academic work a week; two hours preparation for each hour of her classroom work makes an average of seven hours a day and is included. To enable a day she works two hours every day.
Does the business man who puts in an eight-hour day for six days out of the seven think he has much time left? The girl, still growing, still untrained in the ways of systematizing her time and her work, is working nine hours a day. She has left to her little life. And she has left to her family closely bound community in which she lives, to look out for her health and her amusement, to save her would-be education from being swamped in the process.
Education cannot mean this freezed fitting of moment into moment, this absurd making of making a picture puzzle of the hours of the day. The very word means a slow process and a growth.
The question which I had considered four years before, Is it possible to earn my way through college, was answered. How thought many times since, Was it wise?
Take Eleanor. She never lived in one of the campus dormitories where she lived with her parents.
And, what is more, now that she is out and at work, she finds that she has a very small stock of energy with which to make use of her four years of training. She has learned very little from her work of meeting expenses, and proficiency in pressing skirts and mending clothes will probably not be of very material value to her in years to come. I do not think that she has acquired any moral virtues nor strength of character from pressing skirts. If anything, Eleanor has become a little bitter.
dropped out of most class affairs, out of most organizations, out of athletics—losing a great deal of that much-discussed "college life."
That, perhaps, is not so important. She had a high standing on the college books, but she never, during her entire college course at Wellesley, did any work not required by her instructors, and the catalogue. She never had the time to read around an assigned subject, to consider one that was not assigned, to spend a leisurely hour in the library.
It is an impossibility for our colleges to let us be shot through four years of confusion at forty knots an hour and call the result education.
The girl who goes to college has to fight against a hordre of tendencies that disorganize, and scatter her work and, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is unspeakably unwise for her to add another factor that will consume time and energy and fight against 'the multiplicity of faults'四 years at college means in most cases her efficiency after she has been graduated.
It is for this reason, then, that I, for one, would say to the girl who is contemplating a heavier investment in culture and lacks the necessary
"Go to college! But, as for earning your way through, do it only if there is no other way."

HE'S COMING BACK TO SUNNY KANSAS
Geo. O. Foster Found Estes Park to be a Natural Refrigerator
OTHERS ARE NOT DETERRED
Some of University Colony Leave Next Week, While Some Will Wait Until August One
Students and professors on the hill of Oread are not the only ones who have been experiencing the chill of a belated winter. Letters from Registrar George O. Foster, who with his wife and baby left some time ago for Estes Park, Colo., on joyful vacation bent, indicate that conditions there are calculated to be a June vacation anything but joyful.
Mr. Foster writes that it has rained or snowed every day since they arrived and that the mountains surrounding Estes Park are covered with snow. The Fosters have strenuous objections to living in a natural refrigerator. Wherefore they left Estes Tuesday for Colorado Springs. They will stop over there a few days and then return to "sunny Kansas."
Nothing daunted by these communications, a large number of K. U. people who have summer cottages at Estes, are continuing their preparations for the annual vacation hegira thitherward. However they are going to wait till July and August and give the Rockies a chance to warm up to an accommodating temperature. Professor and Mrs. Bushong, R. E. Melvin and family, and C. F. Squires and wife intend to leave sometime before the middle of July. Professor Higins and family of Julia in their cottage about August 1, while W. D, Brownell, Dean Blackmar, Prof. R. R Price and family, Prof. W. H. Johnson and family and Chancellor Strong and family will leave for the mountains immediately after the close of the Summer School session. Wm.

A Sad, Sad Story Composed by the Linotype Man After Hours.
A short-story student was reading the directory of students in the last issue, of the Summer Session Kansaan. Names always had been a mania with him. This is the way his narrative the next day was affected by what he read
"Elele one June evening when the Moon is Hyre, and the Marchbanks Dreier than usual, a Young Miller and a younger maiden start Gally forth for a short Krusen on a Brook nearby. They walk down a Sheedley Lane until they reach the house of a Cotter whose services are needed at the Helm.
They soon reach the Boaten are dreamly drifting down the stream, when a Lowe Bane, as of a sigh, lifes upon the lover's E.R. like the Dear of a man in a dark clammy chapse the maiden's Hand, and anxiously inquires the cause of her woe.
He being a practical man,remembers that they have brought their Coats with them and in the twinkling of an eye, the maid is snugly cuddled in the fold of her wrap. Whereupon there remain further discomfort from the colo-
"I'm Cole," she says, brushing z tiny Curl from her eve.
A little further down the stream, a cloud Lomes up, and obscures the Moon and the maiden, who is not yet Twente, begins to week.
"What have I Dunn," her lover cries, and not a Stone does he leave unturned to comfort the lady of his dreams.
"I have dismembered my father's rule, she says, "and his heart is as Cole as lese. The Moon is hiding her face, and Oman, Shall I not Rue this night?"
Wherewith the Miller comforts the maid with appropriate words, and Heis Armstrong, so that the tears are Dreier, and the lovers are once more as happy as two Robbins in the springtime. Perhaps the returning friendly light of his new wife encourages the man or Curly-Harrish encourages the man to say "I love you, May," and in spite of the maid's "How Darrah you, Sir," a lover's kiss on her brow is laid.
but—out— stammers the haunt:
"There are no Butts about this," he says,
"straightway to the Chapple we'll go and be wed."
"But—but—"stammers the maid.
"Why, there's the light of the chapple now," says MAY. "We are Miles away from home" and tremblingly she places her hand upon her love's arm.
With a word from the practical man, the helmsman steers to the shore where the boat is securely tied to the base of a tree so that the lovers may safely
The helmsman is dismissed, as is everything else from the mind of the man except the Lovejoy in the lay'd eyes.
A short walk brings them to the curate's house, where they are most cordially received by the Venerable man himself. When the curate learns the object of the visit, and is in the midst of the usual preliminary questions, the would-be bridegroom suddenly remembers that he has not procured a license, and "Doggett," says he "Let's send a Messenger for one."
Meanwhile the Venerable curate, who does not fully grasp the situation, invites the truant ones to a modest repast of Klamm and several species of Bunn, during which interval the curate discourses upon the ability of his Cook, especially upon the fact that she never Burns the food.
Having Eaton of the dainty luncheon, the party returns to the parlor, where they engage in the most practical, common sense conversation.
With fluttering Hand the bridegroom receives a paper on which are written these words: "Don't know what Otto be Dunn to you." z
Five people are at work on the Missouri river survey in the University laboratories. One man spends about six hours a day washing dishes. He uses a chemical cleaning fluid, rinses with distilled water and then sets them to drain, wiping them only on the outside.
Soon the doorbell rings. It is the Messenger returned. Has he the license?

These moulds are made of bank sand and wooden patterns are used which are taken out and, the melted iron fills these patterns.

White Moths Fertilize Yuccar Flowers While Professor and Students Watch
Professor Hunter, Melvin Croan and G. K. Stanton spent an interesting hour Friday evening about two night watching the white moths at work in the corolla of a Yucuna flower corner of Warren and Illinois streets.
This moth is known as the Pronuboma and confines its period of action to the dusk of evening for the reason that the Yuca flowers do not open until at 8 o'clock. The moth collects the sticky pollen, packing it against the under side of its head. Having become well loaded it descends the stamen and flies to another flower where it densifies eggs.
Thus the method of cross pollination is made clear by this little moth no larger than a young house fly.
