LOOK OUT FOR GRIPPE
NUMBER 68
Warning and Instructions for Prevention Issued by Health Committee
A second epidemic of the gripe or a flaring up of the first is occurring again among the students at the University. One case gives promise of going into pneumonia. According to reports there are fifty people dying in Chicago daily from complications of the gripe. The disease is seldom fatal but the ease with which it runs in pneumonia, meningitis and heart affections makes it most dangerous. As there is no specific cure for the new member of the University Health Committee has offered the following directions toward preventing others from contracting the disease.
WATCH THROAT AND MOUTH
HOW TO AVOID THE GRIPPE
HOW TO AVOID THE GRIPE "The first essential in the prevention of gripe is to avoid contact with infected people or with carriers of the disease. Practically it may be in either of the two classes. While it is impossible to evade all personal contact yet this should be reduced to a minimum. Public gatherings such as are seen at the moving picture shows are the common place for the gripe distribution. Hence avoid all crowds.
WATCH THROAT AND MOUTH
"As the germs reach the body in all probability through the nose and the mouth, all toilet articles used should be most carefully cleaned and guarded. In no instance should they come in contact with similar articles belonging to others. Atomizing the nasal cavities with some such antiseptic solution as Dobell's both morning and night and a deep gargle of the throat with some efficient antiseptic solution twice daily are highly recommended in this way that have gained access to the mouth before they have set up the morb processes.
"Plenty of fresh air, daily exercise, attention to the organs of excretion are the other essentials in the avoidance of the gripe. Of course one cannot guarantee an escape to all who follow out this method of prevention but the possibilities of contraction are greatly lessened.
DON'T SPREAD THE DISEASE
"As there is no specific cure for the patient with the influenza all efforts should be directed toward preventing others from contracting the disease. After it has been determined or suspected that a person has an attack of the gripe it is much more important than treating the illness, at least in the house than if it were an ordinary acute cold. Also it is more essential that he or she keep isolated and that measures be taken to keep from spreading the disease by coughing or sneezing, and that he does not swab the nose with fingers, cups and eating utensils as other members of the family. The patient should be prohibited from fondling and kissing children. If the patient is a young child in close contact with mother or nurse, all possible precautions should be taken." The various symptoms of the gripe should be treated as they present themselves.
"Unlike most diseases, la gripe can be likened to a smouldering flame which, apparently extinguished, breaks out here and there at widely separated places without the least apparent injury. It is also located in the mouths of perfectly healthy individuals who are not affected in the least."
Although not serious as far as death is concerned, the doctors are anxious that no epidemic shall start in the University community as it has in many Kansas towns and are trying to treat all cases in isolation. They are also anxious that it breaks down of In gripe is that it breaks down the normal, healthy condition of the body and leaves it a fit subject for disease germs of a more serious nature.
SIX AT HOME WITH GRIPPE
The gripe is keeping many students from classes this week. Many are not able to return to school, having contracted the disease during vacation. A number of professors have sent me letters requesting that We received six letters from students who are out on account of the gripe, this morning," said Mrs. Esterley, secretary to Dean Templin, of the College, who will not be back until February."
Among those who are at home on the sick-list are Miss Marie Dent, junior College from Oswego; Miss Charlotte Boutwell, sophomore College from Denver, Cole Ewart Porke and John Graves, of Hill City.

JEWELL STUDENTS GIVE
BANQUET TO H. S. SENIORS
JEWELL STUDENTS GIVE
The K. U. students of Jewell county gave a banquet to the high school seniors and alumni of U. U. during the Christmas holidays and a dining room was crowded and extra guests necessary to accommodate the guests.
The banquet was engineered by Lola Brinton, Isaac Jordan and W. E. Woolsey. Those on the program from K. U. were Rea Heath of Kansas City. Fred Campbell, Margaret Butts, Etheli Peters, W. E. Woolsey, of Jewell county, and John Dykes of Lebanon. John Dykes talked on the mill tax.
Geo. O. Foster, who was to have been on the program, was unable to be present.
CONVICTS NAB K. U. MEN
Party of Investigators Kept in Mines During Mutiny
Hear this thrilling story of the recent convict mutiny at the state prison at Lansing as it was told today by Leland D. Fiske, one of the party of eight K. U. students and professors who were in the mine on a tour of inspection Tuesday, December 28, when the outbreak occurred.
"We went into the mine early in the morning, shortly after 5 o'clock," Fiske said. "When the convict miners came to work later at 7:30 o'clock, enclave members would go and diggings where they armed themselves with pick handles. There they reassembled at the foot of the shaft where they stopped the cages and telephoned Warden Goddling that there would be an alert to listen to their demands and to release the fifty men placed in 'solitary' the day before.
"Meanwhile some of the convict leaders showed us where we could hide and be shielded from flying bullets in case the officers descended into the mine and started shooting. We were shown the greatest courtesy by the rebellious convicts probably because some of the students passed around sacks of a well-known brand of smoking tobacco.
"The convicts however kept close watch on the party and did not allow them to go until late in the afternoon and then only after becoming convinced that two professors and a number of students couldn't hurt anybody."
The revolt prevented the party's being allowed to visit the mine the next day. Warden Codling being afraid of the violence might be done the visitors.
NO MORE VISITS
Conditions in the mine, especially the morals of the convicts, were described as unumentable by Fiske. The other members of the party were: Prof.A.C.Terrill and Prof.R.L Grider, Ted Crum, "Slats" Cole, Ben Swency, Harry Fairchild, and Carl Anderson.
GOVERNMENT WANTS TO
KNOW ABOUT WIRELESS
Kenneth Wright, a senior in the School of Engineering, has received a list of questions from the navy department that are sent out in order to gather information on wireless apparatus which he has in operation at his home in Fort Scott.
The same questions are being sent to amateur wireless operators all over the United States in an effort to gain valuable information for the United States Naval Department to be used in time of war. Details are asked in several ways, including when operators in the city, general direction and distance from nearest large city, whether operator has sending or receiving apparatus or both, number of licensed operators, how many could be used in time of war to handle government business, how far set can operators travel to reach sages have been received from, make of set and whether or not operator is on watch both day and night.
Kenneth has been experimenting in wireless telegraphy for several years and has become rather an old hand at the business. He has owned between fifteen and twenty sets and while spending his vacation at his home in Fort Scott he got his set in operation on Sunday afternoon. Leaventow every day. He received messages from as far away as Colon, Panama.
He is a member of the National Wireless Association, of which Mr. Marconi is president, and is a regular wireless "fan."
The holidays did not come as days of rest for all students of the University. In the department of entomology, Fred Poos, Scott Griesa, and Paul Lawson made a two-week's trip throughout thirty-six counties of southern Kansas to study the entomological condition of the wheat. Each man's itinerary included twelve counties. Ruby Hosford tabulated the reports as they were sent in day by day.
SORORITY WOMEN LEAD
Make Higher Percentage of I and II Grades Than Independent Students
Sorority women make a higher percentage of I and II in their work than non-sorority women, while the reverse is true of fraternity and non-fraternity, according to a report made public by Registrar Gus O. Foster today.
Additional figures show that in the Graduate School, senior Medics, senior and junior Fine Arts, and the junior Medics, men make the highest per cent of grades, in the order named.
In the complete tables which follow, the figures given are based on the per cent of I and II grades. The III and IV grades included in making the percentages.

SHAKESPEARE HIS THEMF
Henry Lawrence Southwick to Appear in Classical Recital Tomorrow
Henry Lawrence Southwick of Boston is the next number in the series of University lectures. He will appear tomorrow at 4:30 in Fraser Hall.
"Frank Speight was a marked success, but we think we have in Henry Lawrence Southwick, a number which will be no less pleasing," said F. R. Hamilton, of the convocation and lecture committee.
Mr. Southwick's selections are all classical. Expressions of appreciation from prominent men and women indicate that one may discover, after hearing Southwick, a fondness for productions, of which he was not aware.
Edwin D. Mead, editor of the New England Magazine, says of Mr. Southwick:
"Henry Lawrence Southwick was the first Old South prize essayist in 1881, writing one of the most thoughtful essays that has ever been written since the prizes were instituted. He has been invited to a place in the Old South course of lectures, and the lecture he delivered on Paulick Henry was recognized as such best in his field by such men as Fake, John D. Long, and Edward Everett Hale had part. He had something to say and he said it with clearness, with directness, with grace, and with power, holding the closest attention of an audience that is critical and hard to hold."
READY FOR BASKETBALL
Manager Hamilton Enlarges Seating Capacity of Gymnasium Other Improvements
A crowd of twelve to fourteen hundred people can be easily accommodated in Robinson Gymnasium for a basketball game since improvements in the court make it easier. Manager Hamilton has installed fourteen sections of reserved seats on the main basketball floor and the balcony will seat about 700. This seating capacity together with standing room will be sufficient for all the games his year.
The reserved sections are slightly larger than last year and at least 650 can be seated on the main floor. These also will be sufficient for the crowd at the indoor track meets. The sections are painted white which is an improvement over the bare boards that were used last year.
A change also has been made in Manager Hamilton's room. A section of the main floor has been walled up so that it will be used as part of the office. This also allows another section of reserved seats to be placed where the big door opens and the apperent floor is rub on the office floor also improves the looks of the Athletic Association's headquarters.
On the outside of the gymnasium a new cement walk has been laid to the door on the boys' side of the building to replace the old board walk. This caused the removal of the last board walk on the campus.
WOMAN HELPER COMING
Co-Eds To Have Opportunity Of
Discussing Choice of Occupations
Frances Cummings, manager of the New York Intercollegiate Bureau of Occupations, is to speak to the young women of the University, January 17, in the chapel. Miss Cummings will tell of the work of the bureau, which is conducted under the auspices of the Association of Collegiate Alumni for college women in occupations other than teaching. There are increasing opportunities for women in many interesting types of employment.
The local A. C. A., who are bringing Miss Cummings here, wish to arrange a number of personal interviews between Miss Cummings and any young woman at the University considering the question of choice of occupation. If Miss Cummings' time permits, these opportunities will be given to all who care to apply for them. Young women wishing appointments leave their names with Alice Winston, Fraser 201, president of the A. C. A.
Operetta To Rehearse Tonight
the operetta, "The Spanish Gypsies," to be given by the girl's glee club will rehearse tonight at seven o'clock in Fraser Hall Chapel. The operetta is composed by Vince and it is especially adapted to when women Prof. W. B. Downing says that there will be about thirty voices in the operetta and it will be given some time in the early spring.
K. U. SOCIOLOGIST ATTENDS NATIONAL ASS'N MEETIN
Dean F. W. Blackmar spent the last week of the Christmas holidays attending the tenth annual meeting of the American Sociological Society, in Washington, D.C. Seven other sociological, and an academic meeting holds meetings at the same time and place, and several joint meetings were arranged.
The general subject of the program of the American Sociological Society was "War and Militarism in Their Sociological Aspects." Papers were read and discussions held by many of the noted sociologists in the country.
Dean Blackmar also attended the meetings of the American Association of Law Schools.
K.U. STUDENTS BANQUET County Clubs Have Christmas Feeds for H. S. Students and Graduates
banquets given in honor of high school seniors and University of Kansas alumni, characterized the activities clubs during the Christmas holidays.
The Allen County Club gave a rousing banquet for about sixty-five, including Robert Lewis, and Lefty Sproull were K. U. alumni who addressed the meeting.
Between forty and fifty attended the Greenwood county feed, and heard Jim Smyth tell of the good old days in North College and Fraser. Smyth was in school when the change was made. He added that he had addressed new Fraser Hall. John A. Edwards also addressed the Greenwood meeting.
Wilson county had a very successful banquet. One hundred and five were present, forty-five of whom were high school seniors. Merits of a university education and 'one at K. U. in pairism, were expressed; W. D. Pawlanski Sheedy, Lois Risinger, "Bill" Cady, and James Butin.
Other banquets have probably been given out over the state, but reports have not yet beet turned in to Willard President of the County Club Union.
"I was surprised," said Glasco, "at the enthusiasm which county bank banquets arouse among the high school seniors and alumni I attended. I have present at Billy Greenfield County Bank, and it seems to me that they do more for the University than any other one thing. Old grads hear a few K. U. stories and memories of the good times on the Hill come back to their mind as they start thinking about what they and do for the benefit of the school.
"The only trouble with our present county organizations," continued Glasco. "is that they leave some loose ends. We want to gather them up by next year and when the mill tax comes before the legislature we'll be able to put it through, if at least half the alumni of the state support it.
"In order that our campaign be better organized, I would suggest," said Glazo, "that every president of a county organization, whether elective or not, report to me, so that I may be able to give notification of Union meetings."
KANSAS RANKS THIRD IN
TRAINED ENTOMOLOGISTS
In a recent article in the Journal of Economic Entomology by W. E. Britton of New Haven, Conn., the number of species collected for this service by the universities and colleges of the country is shown. Kansas is third among the state universities, following only Cornell and Ohio State, in the list of all schools in this work.
Among those in public service who received their training here are: C. S. Sandon, State Entomologist of Oklahoma; P. A. Glenn, Chief Entomologist of Kentucky; B. M. Aldrich, State Entomologist of Louisiana; J. M. Aldrich, W. T. Emery, T. Scott Wilson, H. R. Jennings, all of the staff of the Chief Entomologist of the United States; P. W. Classen and W. J. Cobb, Chief Entomologist and Miss Ruby Hosford, B. P. Young, Raymond Beamer, and F. W. Poos, at this University.
Where Flowers Bloom
Dean Olin Templin, who with his family has been spending his annual vacation in Florida since Thanksgiving, will not return for at least three months of school with his daughter, Mrs. Herbert Rankin, 70%, on her large orange farm at Brandon, which is situated ten miles from the western coast of Texas. His daughter Mantjehave has returned and has taken up her school work.
At a recent meeting the student council at Oregon went on record as disapproving the honor system, giving as their reason the fact that desire for the system has come from the students up to the present time.
CUPID STRIKES AT K. LU
General Dan Cupid Makes Brave Attack and Catches Ft. Uread Unprepared
BULLETIN
Fort Oread, (by special correspondent from the front). The latest addition to the ranks of the wounded are Ida Perry of Kansas and Betsy Perry of Wisconsin. Perry announced her engagement at the Theta house last night. She is a junior College and a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. Carson is an alumnus and graduated from the University last year. He is a member of the Pi Upsilon fraternity.
General Dan Cupil, taking advantage of the defenseless conditions at the University of Kansas, maneuvered a successful attack upon Fort Oread during the Christmas holidays and carried off many prisoners. Combatants are carrying secret wounds as on General Culdic but are heroically concealing the fact that they were hit. However the list of captives is large, and it is believed that all the wounded have not yet been discovered.
SHORTY FOOLED US ALL
The first intimation of the attack by General Cupid's forces came Friday night, December 17, at the Beta Turkey Pull, when Shorty Strothers, football hero, let the secret out that he was a married man. Strothers and Miss Helen Tappan, sophomore College, have been married since October 1. Miss Tappan is well known on the Hill, and since the announcement of her engagement last spring has spent much of her time driving across Missouri to watch him down as the "Fierce Arrow." Mr. and Mrs. Strothers will take a cottage down town and will finish the year's school work here. They expect to make their home in Kansas City where Strothers will practice law with his father.
General Cupid in his attack seems to have made the athletic department his objective for there the losses were heaviest. Coach Herman Olcott was the next victim to be discovered. Coach Olcott, whose engagement was announced early in December, was married to Miss Evelyn Dutton Fog of Portland, Maine, on Wednesday, December 22. Mrs. Olcott will be an addition to the musical with I I Love You, for which she will high contrast her and studied under Madam Milka Terina. She has quite a reputation in the cast as a concert singer. Mr. and Mrs. Olcott will be at home in Lawrence after February 1.
The faculty suffered another loss in the marriage of Mr. Clifford Seibel, instructor in the department of chemistry. Mr. Seibel was married to Miss Ruth Bowdle of Independence, Mo., during the holidays. Professor Seibel has been in the Chemistry department for the last five years.
WARD HATCHED FALLS WOUNDED
WARD HATCHER FALLS WOUS
Ward Hatcher, of the fame,
he was playing at the University
and playing in stock, is another
of the victims of General Cupid's
campaign. Hatcher was married in
Cherryvale to Margaret Lewis, a
member of his company. They have
joined the "Two Merry Tramps" company out of McPherson, and will both be on the road for the rest of the winter. Ward Hatcher was a charter member of Kappa Sigma, a UU and a member of the old Sasakn club,
where he was K. U.'s bright star in
dramatics, and after leaving school he went on the road for awhile. He has coached plays, played stock,
played for the films, and now he is
married.
The last names added to the list of wounded are those of Miss Stella Stubbs and Dutch Urlaub, both K. U. person. Miss Stubbs is a member of Alpha Delta Pi and Mr. Urlaub is a member of Delta Phi and the drawn from school. The wedding is to be some time in the summer and they will make their home here.
EPIDEMIC FOLLOWS BATTLE
As the result of the attack, many of the students on the Hill are suffering from dislocation of the fraternity pin, a common malady, but one from which the victims often recover. The damage wounded is not being published.
Reminiscent of a marriage of two years ago, is the announcement of the birth of a son, Ira, to, Mr. and Mrs. Alonzo Buzick, of Kansas City, Ms. Buzick was Miss Phyllis Buzick who received her master's degree here two years ago,Mr. Buzick was a member of the Kansas chapter of Kappa Sigma.

MORE SCIENCE NEEDED!
A new year lies before us, full of possibilities as great as we want to make them. We are living in an age in which nations and individuals are fighting for supremacy, and the coming year will be more heavily marked by this tendency than any preceding year has been.
Three things are necessary in the fight for supremacy, whether that wager is waged on the battle field or in the class room, and these three requirements are organization, systematization and concentration of effort.
Few University students organize and systematize their work. If they did, they would find that they are wasting much valuable time upon minor things. A schedule of hours and work is the best way of solving the matter.
SOME DID IT
In the coming year are we going to have scientific management introduced into our University work or are we to continue to ramble along in our former unorganized manner of working and living?
Several of the county clubs proved themselves effective organizations during the holidays. They accomplished something constructive. Other county clubs were either never formed or else died from sheer inertia, long before the holidays approached.
But the most worth-while thing that the full fledged clubs accomplished was to prove that a strong organization is possible. Strong organization is the only thing that will ever gain us the mill tax for which we have been fighting for the past few years. The legislature meets again next year. It is never too late to form a county club. Do it now.
THEY'RE OFF
Two thousand, eight hundred and six members of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi at the University of Kansas during the next four years! That sounds like a great many when you stop to consider that the enrollment of this institution is only 2806. But that is the present estimate.
Two thousand, eight hundred and six students of the University in varied states of health, pocketbook and record in the offices of the deans opened up their eyes last Saturday morning to reflect that the day for resolutions had arrived. Can it be possible that there was a single one of that number that did not straighten up and solemnly resolve that he was going back to the University to show the professors that he could really be One student if he wanted to be?
But regardless of whether there will be two thousand, eight hundred and six members of Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Xi in the next four years
or not, now is the propitious time to make such resolutions. Discounting the fact that it is at the beginning of the New Year when each one ought to be thinking of the things that are to be done within the next year, it is a highly significant fact that the calendar shows the final examinations to be scheduled for the fourth week in January.
The time for the great reckoning approaches and preparedness will be the general student topic for the next three weeks—and Phi Beta Kappa beware!
STEP RIGHT UP, AMES.
Four days until the first basketball game!
At that time, the followers of this popular indoor sport will have a chance to see what Coach W. O. Hamilton has up his sleeve toward the making of another Missouri Valley championship team. Ames comes to our guest at two informal gatherings on the polished floor of Robinson Gymnasium, January 6 and 7. It is rather early in the year to meet so strong a team, but as we started to remark—
Coach Hamilton has somehow fallen into the habit of picking out a basketball team that shows early in each season that it is the Cream of the Valley. The championship of the conference has come so regularly that Kansas would hardly know what to do without it.
Coach Hamilton is the premier coach of the Missouri Valley and due recognition must be given him for the work that he has done to put basketball on its present high plane in the conference.
And we'll all turn out Thursday night for the first tangle.
STRIKE NOW IF AT ALL
As the mid-year quizzes approach we are again confronted with the old question of the honor system. Both the Men's and Women's Student Councils have toyed with the problem in past months and past years. But nothing has been accomplished. Are we then to acknowledge that we cannot solve a problem that other universities and colleges have solved?
If we cannot work out this system it would be best for us to drop the subject entirely, but if there is a possibility of its being worked out, now is the time to act. Are we to have an honor system in working order or not at the time of the mid-year examinations? The time to decide is here now.

"The teacher of agriculture in Kansas must be brought to the realization that he must help solve the agricultural problems of Kansas," says Prof. H.J. Waters president of Manhattan College, an executive has made a statement which applies equally to the departments of instruction here at the University. They could also deal with practicabilities and help solve other problems for the state. For example the political science department could call on Mr. Sikas Kansas town which is dissatisfied with its present form of government. This was done in a western college last year and the charter turned out was just what was wanted. The engineering school could draw up designs for the beautification of Kansas towns. Business men of the Bureau like that now conducted at Harvard. Business men of the state could ask questions and have the department help solve their troubles. The latest work done by the Harvard Bureau is to discover a cure for the hardship and inefficiency in the retail grocery store. The Chicago retailers have planned suggested and have adopted the method of book keeping proposed.

CAMPUS OPINION
You do not have to be and you cannot be a bookworm to be a student. You cannot be a sluffer and be a student either. Neither the bookworm nor the sluffer is desirable in a college. The one is too busy to work for his school and the other is too lazy. The happy medium, that student, is one who has time for student activities outside of school work
The classes could be utilized to work out these problems as laboratory experiments or assignments. The concreteness of the problems and their relation to every day interest in his course in University, that which he brought to the people, has been brought to the people over the state by the solution of their problems and they would be more interested in the work here.
The sluffer goes out of college lazier than he was before entering. The bookworm has taken out of the school all he can get in the way of book learning, and has put nothing into his mind not only to benefit himself but to assist, in his way, be it small or large, to place his school on a higher level. And the result is that when he leaves he is developed along many lines, while the sluffer is developed on one side and the bookworm on one. The city of the college today is for the live student, not the dead one.
THAT OLD LOW-BROWED PAPA
STIFFE
We may not have to chew the city water next year but if not we will probably see a rise in the price of board.
"Will they become me?" some of the students in that department are asking themselves. We would frankly say, 'no.' But the number that will be wearing them will soon make them so common a sight that no one need feel any personal discomfort. The sense of the scheme and unity is for the individual students (to say nothing of the economy and comfortableness of a good old pair of corduroys, should make the plan a success.
The idea is a good one and should have been adopted long ago. The journalist of all other students need just such sort of rough and ready attribution, so they be distinguished from the "common or garden variety" of students.
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Swish, swish, swish. By their corduroys you shall know them. Goodbye pantatoriums and clothing stores. With a neat pair of "cords" on the cold winter winds will only blow in for the journalism student.
Practical
—Don Marquis.
"I'm burning up with love for you!" His accents did not lack fire— And then her papa came downstairs And started up a back fire.
As a rule he does not rank number one in his classes because his sole aim is not set upon winning a prize or fellowship. He does not refuse to win and does not interfere with his studies or because he is too busy having a good time and is willing to help whereher he is able and he does not howl because he is not paid for it. And he does not have the course he has something to show for it, which the sluffer has not, and the bookworm probably has not.
To say you don't know a person very well is usually a tactful way of saing you don't like him.

TO HAVE MANY PHOTOS
Junior and Sophomore Sections of Jayhawker to be Large
Three-color panels will be a feature of the junior section of the 1916 Jayhawk if the present plans of Editor Arnold Nordstrom are used. The resulting "doo-toe printing" will be used, the resulting pictures being in black, with gray and green in the shadows and in the border design. The effect thus gained is much superior to the printing, according to Nordstrom.
In order to obtain the best possible results, the junior section will be printed apart from the register and may use different forms. Only eight pages will be included in one form, whereas sixteen to thirty-two is the usual number. By printing fewer pages than required quality of work will be obtained.
The junior pictures are to be run eight to a panel, according to Nord strum. The name, home address and Junior will be given below this picture.
"More than 134 juniors have already signed up for pictures," said Nordstrom this morning, "and I feel confident that the third-year section of the book will be even a bigger success than it was last year. We will meet in person soon." The class, and hope to sign up half a hundred more before the holidays.
The sophomore section of the book is also on the boom, if the statement
of Bill Koester, manager, is to be believed. "Eighty-three students have already turned in their pictures," said Koester when interviewed, "and there's no telling how many more have had their photos taken." We'll rival the juniors if things keep up at their present rate."
As in the junior section, the name, home address, school, and honor list of each sophomore will be printed. In this department of the university, you can be run sixteen to a panel, instead of eight, as in the junior section.
Plans are being made for another military training school to be located in the middle west. West Point is unable to train enough officers for the army, according to an announcement from the east.

K. U. OWNS ITS PLANT
Power House Supplies Water Light and Heat For All K. U. Buildings
"That ninety per cent of the students on the Hill—professors might be included, too—are unaware that, as they go from walking over a net-work of electric wires carrying more than 2300 volts, is probably so, if I may base my opinion on the statements of students to whom I have talked," said Professor in mechanical engineering.
"Very few people," he declared, "outside of the electrical and mechanical engineering students know how the light and power and heat are transmitted over vast versity. They know that in some way or other the buildings are lighted, that the machinery which helps to heat buildings and to carry out laboratory experiments, is being set in motion at every hour in the same place from some place or other, but they do not know where it comes from."
UNIVERSITY HAS POWER PLANT
Running from the power plant to
the various buildings is a net-work
device. Insulate sheaths, which are inside of small tilings. These tilings are from three to four feet under the ground.
"These little wires," said Professor Sluss, connected with the engines in the power plant furnish
University with light and power.
"Through part of these sheaths is sent out a direct current. This current furnishes the power for the motors which are used in many of the laboratories. Through other sheaths are sent the indirect or alternating currents which furnish light for all the buildings.
"One direct line," continued Professor Slusar, "leads out of the plant and goes between the main buildings as far as the library. This main line branches out to all the buildings. Close to the buildings are transformers which regulate the lighting system. Connected to these many hundreds of wires which lead to the various rooms. The direct current also branches off to those buildings where power is needed."
"The University Power Plant is a busy little place. There is nothing human about the machinery over there—no kicking about the 84'our
"Everything runs continuously day and night, with the exception of two hours a week, when things are shut down, and curtains drawn, so that the machinery may be given a bath, as some engineers express it."
In 1908 the State Legislature appropriated $60,000 so that the University might have its own power plant. The plant was designed to supply appliances for lighting, and to pump water sufficient for the needs of the University. Here are some of the things which the appropriation furnished. Just south of the sewering building the Power Plant was built.
Inside of this building are two large Bowers-Kennectt water-tube boilers, 150 horse power each; and a Sterling water-tube boiler, 208 horsepower. These boilers are equipped with Jones automatic underfed-strokers, induced draft and economizers. In the plant are also one steam engine, and one cross-compound Bail engine, and two electric wire direct current generators. Besides this there is one 100 kilowatt horizontal Curtis turbine, running at 2300 volts; and a 75 kilowatt motor generator by which either direct or indirect currents may be generated, and other current may be used for power.
At the west side of the main room is an ordinary service pump which pumps 500 gallons of water a minute—a maximum of 70,000 gallons a day, enough to supply all the people on the Hilf for four months. There is also a steam-driven pump which pumps 150 gallons a minute, which pressures 140 pounds pressure per square inch (m²) water supply (lake) motor-driven, centrifugal pump which has a capacity of 750 gallons a minute.
"These pumps furnishes the water
"These pumps furnish the water
for the University," said Slus,
the man who had explained around the plant, and whom he said mattered he was satisfied with the things the plant does for the University.
A Call For Mrs. Brown
REX MILLER TO OXFORD
Rex Miller, College '17, was awarded the three years' scholarship at Oxford University at the meeting of the Rhodes scholarship committee during the holidays. The appointment was made from among three other applications who had passed the examination.
Women of the University of Minnesota edited a special issue of that college's daily paper recently—and printed it on yellow paper.
Robert Whitchcom, of Topeka, whose brother Philip won the scholarship four years ago, was one of the candidates and N. E. Cain and A. B. Darling, both of Wichita, were the other two.
K. U. Student is Awarded Rhodes Scholarship—to go in September
The examination is held every two out of three years. The successful student receives $1,500 a year during the life of the scholarship. Two years ago his scholarship was awarded a A.C. Carnegie college '14, who is at present at Oxford.
And as might be expected one of the large headlines announcing a dramatic production went like this: "Lady Frederick to Show Wardrobe."
Rex Miller is president of the University Y. M. C. A. and a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity. His home is now in Kansas City, but until recently it was in Lawrence. He will leave for Oxford early next September.
The members of the Chancellor scholarship committee are: Chancellor Frank Mossman, President of Public Instruction; Chair Justice W. A. Johnson; President Frank Mossman of Southwestern College; Dr. E. Campbell of Cooner College. C.
The enrollment of Oxford at the present time includes few Britons. The number of students has dropped significantly since the war. Rhodes scholars from America make up the greater portion of these. As reported by C. A. Castle, the greatest proportion of students brought to Oxford are the students, the colleges to rally to the colors.

THE YOUNG MEN'S STORE
Football players are slow turning in equipment, something like 100 suits still out. Manager Hamilton will take steps at once to have material returned.
A great many students left school before the holidays without returning football equipment, which was called for immediately after the close of the inter-class series. This material should be returned once and re-received by the Students in order to becoming careless in their obligations to the Athletic Association. Equipment is checked out freely to those wishing to take part in intercollege or intramural sports with the understanding and agreement that it will be returned when called for or paid at full prices. This carelessness on the part of students greatly inconveniences and is quite expensive to the management, an assessment that are kept on hand to check in this material.
Material will be received this week at the store room in the Gymnasium the following hours: 10:00 to 12:00 12:00 to 13:30 1:30 to 5:30 o'clock in the afternoon.
There are also a number of men, who have had track material who are not practicing regularly. This material should be returned so that this material may be used by those who wish to practice. It is a rule of the association that persons who do not have track material cannot check out any material or receive any of the honors of the Association.—Adv.

MINE "RESCUE" THRILL
Government Experts Drill Marvinites in Imaginary Expeditions
With cumbersome breathing ap paratus strapped to their shoulders the K. U. mining engineers on their hands and knees crawled through the mud, wading in water, courageously penetrating the most deadly of imaginary fumes and dauntlessly accomplishing the most thrilling of imagination rescues. The Mines Bureau of Mines is responsible for construction in rescue work and first aid to the injured in mines which representatives of the United States Bureau of Mines are giving the Marvinites this week—the first course of its ever to be offered at the University.
The Bureau of Mines demonstration car arrived in Lawrence yesterday evening and will remain here until the first of next week, during demonstrations for the classes. The car will however, also be open to the general public, the plan being to give several public demonstrations in mine rescue training to the Union Pacific tracks a short east of the station.
At 11:30 this morning J. J. Rutledge, who is in charge of the mining district which covers Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and parts of Texas, gave a lecture on safety appliances and their use in mines. As Mr. Rutledge spoke, moving pictures were thrown on the screen showing rescue parties making practical use of the contravenses he explained. Mr. Rutledge will give a similar lecture tomorrow morning.

K. U. INVITES MERCHANTS
Will Leave Stores in February to Attend Short Course at State University.
Announcement of the program for the annual short course for Kansas merchants at the state university, February 7 to 11, inclusive, was received this morning by the editor of the. This
program is arranged by the director of the University Extension Division and given in the rooms of the University buildings, which are designed for the retailers of Kansas and the growing attendance and interest has led Director F. R. Hamilton to predict an attendance of 1914 being 266 and in 1915, 325.
The speakers, topics and methods of conducting the work have been arranged according to the needs of the Kansas retailers expressed in suggestions they have made and questions they have asked in the past three years. The best features previously used have been retained and the program so arranged that three general lectures on mercantile subjects will be given every day. Additional articles are scheduled in salesmanship, advertising, accounting, show card writing and textile judging.
Round table lectures will be held for grocers, clothiers, hardware and furniture dealers, department and general merchandise store owners and clerks, druggists and nurses in shoes. Round tables will also be held for those selling auto supplies.
Most important among the many speakers for the week are: Charles D. Heller, advertising manager for Marshall Field and Co., and Paul N. Neystrom, who met with such approval at the course last year.

Ames
The solution of a big basketball problem will be seen Friday night when the Jayhawker basketball squad appears on the floor for the first game of the season with Ames. For three weeks Coach Hamilton has been trying to pick a squab but as the time for the third game was approaching it was able to choose his five. Anyone of fifteen men has a good chance to appear in the opening game.
Each day a different squad would be picked as the "regulars" and another bunch as the "scurs." And quite often the scrubs proved to be better than the regulars. The squad will not lack knowledge and ability up to their usual form under strain and excitement will be the main cause of worry.
The vacations of fifteen basket-tossers were cut short because of the need of practice. Regular work started Wednesday. At least an hour's scrimmage was required before the run-in, or for the men, as well as basket shooting and dribbling practice.
Each position on the team has a number of applicants. At forward, six men have been showing up good all season. Kowder and Gibbons have been doing good work but of late. Pattinson and Kennedy have shown some speed. Miller and Gibson are also going good at the front part of the team. "Slats" Cole, a veteran, has a good hold on the center job.
Pausch and Lytle may also get a hand at center.
Hamilton has a larger squad of guards to pick from than forwards. Wilson, Heath, Uhrlaub, Nelson, Appel, Hoffman and Rebell are all candidate to win the seven are likely to start the Ames game and in case the score is favorable all of them may get a chance to play. Wilson has seen showing up well since football season when Nielsen has been doing good work all season.
Ames has a strong team and the two games this week will be hard ones for the Jayhawkers. But the hard games Friday and Saturday will be good games to get the men in shape two battles at Lincoln next week.

Plain Tales from the Hill
Speaking of vacation time, students living along Ohio street say that it was a familiar sight to see Prof. C. H. Ashton standing in the street before his house with the radiator of his automobile raised, and intently studying from time to time the contents of a book. Slightly modernizing the word "Highway" in The Road Highway' it might read in the professor's case "It is better to be a good auto-mechanic than a bad poet or an incompetent professor."
Abe Hay, sophomore College, who hails from Perry, Kansas loves to hunt rabbits. When Abe went out to his farm for the vacation he was soon out with his gun in search of his favorite game. Abe said that he was not out long before he had scared up nearly a hundred rabbits all in one room by hunting them in a hurried back to the country store where he purchased shells amounting to $2.50. It was to be a big day's haul for the University sophomore. Not at all; on returning to the farm Abe was unable to locate a solitary cotton-tail.
Out at Minneapolis, Kansas, rabbits are more scarce than settlers, even more scarce than University students. Ernest Stateler, who comes from this short-grass country, says that he does not secure his track training of 10:41 am every morning and has spent home for the Christmas dinner he spent much of the time visiting the Minnesota and home folks. This was the track captain's first visit to the farm since last Christmas. During the summers for the past five years he went in his entire life with threshing crews in the central part of the state.

While no doubt most of the cases of overtime are due to the conscious desire on the part of the professors to earn their salaries, the dormitory officers are committed by the witter members of the faculty family. Some of our professors are blessed with wonderful wit. They can't help being funny. We don't know if they've coeriously at every pause—and are then held overnight to listen to another chestnut.
CONDITION GROW
The conditions these facts have been popularly lately. The condition is becoming aggravated by the desires of each professor to work his lectures overtime in order to pound in his wisdom to make his students quiz-takers.
HERE'S YOUR CHANCE
Unfortunately students can't give their proof a cut for holding them overtime. Neither can they rise when the whistle blows and walk out of the room. The professor must teach it, and you it —you call while he finishes his hairn and then do a spring in ten flat to your class. When grades are not yet turned in, it is unwise, to say the least, for a student to assess itself in regard to working time. All he can do is seek with right-leg indignation. This is a difficult and exhausting procedure to go through four times every day.
Watch that prof of yours.
But there is hope ahead. Beginning tomorrow, any suffering student may report offending professors to the Daily Kansan and their names, including the hour when the offense was committed will be reported in a column under a head which will be most appropriate for the occasion.
Watch that prof of yours.
Call twenty-five every time he continues a pseudo-joke after the whistle blows.
GOSPEL TEAM SUCCEEDS
Holidays
Did Efficient Work Among Churches And Schools of State During Holidays
Church efficiency was the goal towards which the Gospel Teams of the Y. M. C. A. worked on their last trip. As a result, a Church Union was formed at White Cloud, Methampus, and Christ Churches, B. B. Balser will return later to White Cloud and assist the churches in their final plans and in the selection of a pastor. There has been much discussion about the ability of the teams for the smaller churches and the Y. M. C. A. hopes to establish the plan firmly.
WORK AMONG HIGH SCHOOLS
The gospel teams also organized Chartered Education, and worked among the high school boys, teaching them athletic games, helping them in their school work, and opening courses in hygiene. One night at each town was given to the discuss the student life. These students brought out the largest crowds and of much practical benefit to the University.
Efficient church work is the aim of these trips rather than individual conversions and the success achievable through large trips to laver town in the future.
The members of the two teams sent out were: B. B. Balser, captain; Charles Sloan, Herbert Howland, J. M. Johnson and L. B. Glyce to White Cloud, Kansas. The Circleville, Kansas delegation were James Sellers, captain, Edward Todd, and Wayne Edwards.
To Speak In K. C.
Olive Clermont, sophomore College, will go to Kansas City tomorrow morning where she is to speak to the Grandview Mothers' Club on "The Playground—a Supplement to the Home." She was a playground supervisor in Kansas City, Kansas last summer.
The Harvard corporation has announced that hereafter admission to the medical school will be offered to students completing two years of work in certain approved institutions. Formerly, students seeking admission were required to hold an academic degree.
STUDENTS ARE URGED TO AID RELIEF
With the purpose of making hospital supplies, gathering old clothing and obtaining subscriptions of money, to help the warring nations of Europe, a War Relief Club has been formed by the Unitarian Church. The club urges that all University students help by supplying the organization with old clothing. The committee of the club is: Mrs. T. H Chalabee, M. M. N. Benedict and Gillith Snow. All University women are asked to help by spending a few hours a week making bandages and other hospital supplies and they are urged to communicate with the above named committee.

NEW HOME FOR ATHLETES
Manager Hamilton Drawing Plans for Club House on McCook Field
Plans and specifications for the new Athletic building which is to be built on McCook grounds, just south of old sheds, are being completed. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Outside athletes will be completed before outside athletic begin in the spring.
building at its location.
Manager Hamilton was asked to draw up the plans and submit them to the Board.
Nothing definite as to the size of the building has been decided upon as yet, but Manager Hamilton is thinking seriously of drawing up plans for a bungalow style, one story high, and constructed so that later another story may be easily added. The building will be large enough to afford plenty of room for the athletic members for at least two or three years.
The Board of Administration decided favorably on the erection of the building at its last meeting.
BURDICK IS DELEGATE
Governor Capper Selects K. U Professor as Representative to N. I. Conference
Dr. William L. Burdick professor of Law in the University has been named as delegate to the National Conference on Immigration and Americanization by Governor Capper. This conference will be held in Philadelphia on the nineteenth and twentieth of this month.
The session will open with an art exhibit by the immigrant races of America, "The Immigrant in America" a film depicting the life of the immigrant from his arrival in this country will be shown that evening.
Many prominent immigrant workers and authorities will gather to take part in the conferences and round tables on the following day.
These discussions will be led by such authorities as: Colon Roosevelt; John H. Fahey, President of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States; Louis F. Post, Assistant secretary of the Navy; and Stuart Deerby, Librarian and Editor of the Public; Mary Antin, author of "The Ungranted Gates" and "the Promised Land" as well as other books upon the immigrant problem.
The object of the conference is to inaugurate a movement that will instill in the hearts of the strangers within the gates of 'Ellis Island a deep feeling of Americanism, truer realization of American ideals and a love for America. The conference will work along the lines laid down by President Wilson in his recent message to Congress.
WILL GIVE LAW COURSE
IN COLLEGE NEXT TERM
Elementary law for college students—that is the purpose of a new course in law that will be offered to students in the seniors in the College next semester.
Heretofer it has been impossible for a man in the College to take even a little law without enrolling in the course. He will need additional fees for the privilege. The new course in the college will avoid this difficulty, and will offer instruction more suited to their needs than the technical courses in the School of Law.
Reserved seats for the opening basketball games of the 1915 Jaya-hawker season with the Ames Aggies, Friday and Saturday night in Berlin, where were on sale yesterday afternoon. A large crowd is expected by W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, at both games. A re-arrangement of the gymnasium has increased the seating capacity by several hundred.
"The idea of the course is to give college men instruction in the ordinary principles of law, such as they are likely to need any time," explained Prof. Blain F. Moore, who will give the new course. The course involves a variety of technical nature, but the students will study the common principles of contracts, wills, and other things that they may need any day."
At a meeting of the trustees of Dickinson College, James Henry Morgan was unanimously elected head of that institution.
The new course is scheduled for 10:30', and will give three hours credit.

RICHARD OUT FOR BLOOD
Subject of Mr. Southwick's Recital not a Mollycoddle nor a Pacifist
'Richard III" is the Shakespearean drama which Henry L. Southwick of Boston, gave at his recital in Fraser Hall this afternoon.
While Shakespeare has shown Richard III as an unmitigated, doubleyed villain, in some instances historians have given it the label "Hood he lived." Brightest of all was "Hood he lived" with greater security, he would have beer, an able and admirable governor. He was "liberal and forgiving to the verge of folly," but of a "tyrannical temperament" and of a passionate friend for music.
During his reign he made what, for his time, was a liberal provision for the promotion and encouragement of literary effort. Other good measures marked his brief reign, such as the extension of England's commerce and the repeal of benevolence, but they have generally been attributed to his desire to maintain plurality and to open his bloody accession to the throne rather than to any innate goodness and true conception of his kingship.
But Richard was out for blood. There is no doubt of that. The play is not more bloody than the actual career of the hunch-back king; his revolting crimes; his harmonious warmth. All goes well for a time and his crimes bring to the power he covets until his surpassing and monumental crime, the murder of his two young VHILI officers, the eightful of the throne, appels his accomplice. Then the tide turns and nemesis brings Richard's defeat and death in 1485 at the hands of Henry of Richmond who became a monarch, inviting Elizabeth, heiress of the house of York, recieved the two houses of York and Lancaster, thus closing the thirty years' War of the Roses.
Mrs. Brown to Organize Committee of Students to Governor Social Affairs
TO REGULATE PARTIES
The president of the men's organizations of the Hill will meet Wednesday evening at the office of Mrs. Eustace Brown at seven-thirty o'clock. The purpose is that he will attend the meeting that will act with a corresponding women's committee concerning closing hours, dances, chaperones and everything which goes to make up the social life of the student body. Professor Patterson will commit to student interested who meet the plan will be at the meeting.
Mrs. Brown urges all the men presidents to be at the meeting as it will be their chance to voice their sentiments on these matters. She suggests that if any organization has a meeting on this night that the vice-president may take charge and the president attend the meeting.
About twenty-five women attended the first meeting of Miss Gladys Elliott's gym class which was held Monday night in Robinson Gymnasium. This class is composed chiefly of the women faculty members, wives of students and secretaries employed on the Hill.
The women presidents will meet on Thursday evening at the same time if

THE STUBBS BOYS AT PRINCETON
Well, well, and is this our Governor Stubbs in the morning paper who has just taken his two boys back east to enter Princeton? The same Governor Stubbs who from one end of the state to the other lambasted K. U. for its classical courses, "aastronomical mathematics" to be exact, and advocated more "salt-rising bread" courses, more practical studies for the youth of Kansas, courses that spelled bread and butter?
There must be some mistake. Surely it is not our former Governor who has chosen for his boys what is probably the most classical institution in the land. There must be some mistake.
Well, if this is the same Governor Stubbs his boys at Princeton will not be sent to classes in badly-ventilated, badly-lighted basements, nor assigned to overcrowded classes, nor to laboratories with archaic and incomplete equipment.
He thought that good enough for Kansas boys. He vetoed an appropriation that would have greatly remedied conditions for Kansas boys at K. U.
Nor will the Stubbs boys at Princeton be without dormitories, nor a Student Union, nor an auditorium, nor sufficient and highclass instructors. They will find at Princeton twice as many instructors per one hundred students as at K. U.; 320,000 volumes in the library as against 100,000 at K. U.
And yet six years ago K. U. was good enough for the average Kansan's son in the opinion of the Governor.
Perhaps it is the Governor's astute financial sense. He doubtless has had it pointed out to him that at Princeton nearly $400 is expended on each student while at K. U., the great state of Kansas—the great state with educational ideals, the great state that is out of debt,—expends $176 per student for instruction, taxing the citizens of the state the substantial sum of 14 cents on $1000 valuation for their University.
And out of this $176 must the University, largely at Governor Stubbs' demand, look after one hundred and one activities of the state, water-testing, drug-testing, community music, etc. Nothing like this at Princeton.
It is not a case of sour grapes with us. If we were not loyal Kansans, or did not have fathers who were loyal Kansans and we had the necessary fare to New Jersey and back, perhaps, who knows? we might be enjoying the educational advantages of Princeton, or Michigan, or Yale, or Wisconsin—along with the Stubbs boys.
There have been as great souls un known to fame as any of the most fa mous.—Poor Richard's Almanac.

A man is never so ridiculous by those qualities that are his own as by those qualities he affects to have. Poor Richard's Almanac.
IT IS HERE TO STAY
The recent epidemic of gripepe and the second epidemic that is threatening has proved conclusively the value and necessity of the University hospital. In spite of much complaint on the part of the student body against paying an additional fee and in spite of many pessimistic predictions on the part of many of the townpeople, the hospital has won out, and has shown that a hospital is not a white elephant on the hands of a large University.
At the beginning of the epidemic many humorously inclined students saw only an attempt on the part of the student body to get its two dollars' worth of treatment, but as the epidemic became more widespread and serious, their humor changed into relief that they had medical service upon which to rely. During the months of November and December over half the student body received medical aid, their complaints ranging all the way from appendicitis to severe colds. The hospital beds were full almost constantly, and the nurse and staff of doctors busy from early morning until late in the night. Patients who were too ill to come to the hospital were visited by the nurse at home.

ANSWERING THE TELEPHONE
"Whist impressions are lastening," is especially true, when one talks over the telephone. "Many, it seems, fail to radiate what I understand to answer the phone in an appropriate manner."
There are about thirty-five organizations in the University that have their own homes or headquarters. Each one of these has its telephone. When one of these organizations is called, the telephone may be answered
by any one of a dozen members
by some one

man of Indianapolis: "As a rule, you can judge a business house by the manner in which the telephone is answered." Professor Kendall did not accept this as a universal rule, but he used it to emphasize the fact that it is important that the person who calls over the telephone should be given every possible courtesy. When one stops to think of the point that Professor Kendall made, he is more and more convinced that there is much ground for his statement. It is often that the one in charge of the telephone in an institution or a business house is asked questions that, to the operator, seem unnecessary or trivial. It may be, however, that the information asked is of greatest importance to the inquirer.
It's the Little Things that count.
RIFTS IN THE WAR CLOUDS
"A Tragedy in the Clouds," is the headline of a little "piece" of war news.
War—the word calls up all that is terrible, all that is brutish, all that tends to efface in man sentiment, charity, and fineness, but the news referred to suggests that our common conceptions may be superficial.
A German Zeppelin ventured too near the Russian lines. The Russians shelled it. An explosion in the air, then the taking of charred and mangled remains from the debris that fell to the ground. That was all. But over the grave of Germans, a cross was erected by Russians, bearing the inscription, "Honor the brave, though they were Germans."
A NEW FORMULA
Among the most fragile bits of bric-a-brac are New Year resolutions adapted to the rough handling of everyday life because they are so difficult to keep intact. The idea of putting off a habit until another day is much more sensible. To the man who has just decided to stop smoking "forever" seems a long, long time, but to stop until tomorrow does not seem hard at all.
A broken New Year resolution has to wait a whole year before it can be mended. Already there are many resolutions on the scrap pile. But a man or woman can start any day in the year to put off a habit until another day, and if he slips once he can start in the next day to miss it once more.
Break it a day at a time.
Science has just published the following jingle by a K. U. professor which is offered as a scheme for aiding students to remember the order of geological periods:

It sounds like a splendid remedy for insomnia. Read it through once, and you will want to sleep for a week.
A fraternity chapter at the University of Indiana gave a Christmas party to thirty poor boys just before the beginning of the vacation period. To a K. U. fraternity man this seemed a perfectly proper thing to do only, he says, he can't see why they had to invite in the thirty poor boys because he believes that the men in the house could all have qualified.
An Ann Arbor restaurant keeper has opened a college hamburger stand "for women only" and he says that a man will not be allowed inside the door under any consideration. The Males at Michigan must be awfully poor spenders.
There is a senior in the University who says that he has discovered a simple formula which is going to cause him to get about three times as much good from his work this year as he ever has before in any of his three years in school. The formula is this: sit on the front seat, or as near the front as possible, in each class that you attend and pay the closest attention to what the instructor has to say. When one bears in mind that examinations and the making or breaking of if it were your credits are only a matter of weeks, it is evident that this advice is particularly apt.

The "exposal" of college professors which Don Herold, '13, makes in the Illinois University Alumni Quarterly is decidedly daring.

You always wonder if a professor is good to his family (he seems so mean at college) and you can't see him. You know he has him around the house so much.
I have been at professors' houses lots of times and had them leave me and go down to the basement, and I guard them sweaving at the fireplace.
They make their living by delivering high school commencement ad-
vocations to students and professors work their way through college in some way or other.
If you come right out and say, "Oh shoot, I don't get Beetoven or Schoenhauer or any of the other great musicians, and I don't quirk there's much to them anyway," the master will generally agree with you.
Unmarried professors generally pretend to be living like bachelors. They really go in for being like collegegoers and expect a lot of credit for it.
Married professors generally have ugly wives, which they don't bring out in public very often. They pick up for intellect, not for decoration.
They use fairly good grammar, and even go out of their way to get in some good grammar, but they are greatly relieved if you want to cuss them. They don't have pugilism and other things of contemporary interest. The only reason that a professor uses English is to get your goat, but anybody can take courage and decide to convert them to another professor and get away with it.
The babies are put out in the back yard at night, for fresh air and self-sufficiency. Professors' babies are accorded to scientific and psychological laws, and - it is a wonder that they live - if a pre-baby falls down three flights of stairs, the professor never notices it, for he knows it is only the natural working of the laws of gravity.

Coach Wants all Track Aspirants to Work for the Tiger Meet
SOUNDS CALL FOR TRACK
And now the indoor track season comes to the front. Active work started Monday afternoon and every day from now until the Convention Hall meet with the Tigers, a squad of Kansas can be seen training for the Big Ten. We were out yesterday but more are expected before the end of the week.
In order to get things going right, Captain Reber has issued a call for a meeting of tracksters tomorrow afternoon at four o'clock in the gym. All men who ever took part in track athletics or any who would like to get into the game are urged to attend the meeting. Coaches Hamilton and Pat Sullivan will speak to the men and the work of the season will be outlined. The meeting will be held in the room northeast of the basketball court.
PLACES FOR NEW MEN
Although there are a number of old men back and the prospects for a good team are bright, there will be openings for several new men. Every man to be given a chance and with the fast competition that is expected the ones that make the team will have to be good.
The first meet that is scheduled at the present time is with the Kansas Aggies on February 21. However, Manager Hamilton states that he will schedule a meet with Bill Hargais' Emporia Normals or on Monday in January. The Aggle meet will be followed on Feb. 26 by the K. C. A. C. invitation meet. Every man who has been showing any speed at all will be entered in this meet, including freshmen who will be entered unattached. This will be the last meet before the Missouri-Kansas affair which will season unattended games until they have a chance in the Western Conference indoor meet to be held one week later.
"I would like to see as many men out at this meeting as possible," said Captain Reber this morning. "We want the fellows to know what we are going to do, and we will try to get to get as much spirit as possible to get men into track. We have a good season ahead and there are many chances for new men to make good this year if they will only come out. Every man who can do something at all in track should be out at this meeting and stay out all season."

SOUTHERN ROMANCE
The Witching Hour, the Dramatic Club Play, Will be Presented January 12
"The delicate otar of mignomette,
is all that tells of our presence—yes,
it's all that tells of our presence—yes,"
their mouths closed.
All the fascination and charm of a story filled with sentiment and superstition is to be found in "The Witching Hour" which is to be given by I. Drewery (1873) and By 12. By this little bit of verse, recalling the visions of an old love, and linking it with conditions and persons of the present, an旧 bache'or judge on the supreme berch of the court, to the tide that threatens to stifle a young romance.
The plot is complete in detail and intensely interesting. The scene is found in Kentucky at the present day, while the title of the play, 'The Judge,' has been set to an old superstition of the Judge as to the appearance of his sweetheart in a certain room every night at two o'clock.
"I am well satisfied with the work of the cast thus far," said professor MacMurray this morning, "and I can assure the students that they will see one of the finest plays ever produced." Not only is the play one of the finest I have ever read, but the cast is well picked to handle the parts.
A Poetry Club has been organized at Michigan. The society has a twofold purpose—to revive student interest in literature, and to bring prominent writers to that University. Such an effort will be needed by Markham and James Whitcomb Riley will be invited to Ann Arbor to deliver lecturers.
From Other Campuses
The fraternities on the campus at the University of California will be prohibited from building new houses costing over $25,000, according to a pass passed by the Board of Trustees of the University at a recent meeting.
A course in military training is offered to students of the College of Agriculture at Cornell. The practice work will be supervised by Lieut. C. F. Thompson, U. S. A., commandant of the Cadet Corps.
Sixteen runs have been held in the history of intercollegiate cross-country running, and of these Cornell has won fourteen, Harvard and Yale
completing the number by winning one apiece. A table of the victories follows: 1899, Cornell; 1900, Cornell; 1901, Yale; 1902, Cornell; 1903, Cornell; 1904, Cornell; 1905, Cornell; 1906, Cornell; 1907, Cornell; 1908, Cornell; 1909, Cornell; 1910, Cornell; 1911, Cornell; 1912, Harvard; 1913, Cornell; 1914, Cornell.
A real low brow will soon go to the University of Washington. A skull with a flattened brow, whose owner belonged to a tribe of Indians on the Columbia river, has been given to the museum as an important artifact in the Museum. It was the tribal custom of these Indians to bind a board on the head of the little papoose and let it remain until the child was about three years old. By that time the front of the board would be plausible flatness up to the minute according to the style of the tribe.
Freshmen at the University of Colorado break rules under penalty of being deprived of citizenship. The rules aren't so very easy to keep either.
Besides wearing the postage stamp cap, all freshmen are compelled to salute professors, and to give right of way on walks to upperclassmen. They are also forbidden the use of tobacco in any form, on the campus, and are required to be on hand to build boulders for any demonstration of the University.
Freshmen are also forbidden to remain seated, while a professor or upperclassman is standing at any university function.
In the season of 1914, football was played according to intercollegiate rules by 450 colleges, by 600 secondary schools, and by 1500 teams, not connected with educational institutions, but which represented organized sports. The thousand games were played by 152-000 players. Estimates place the total number of persons attending football games in the United States, during the 1914 season, at 6,229,000. The largest assembler was at the University of New York where the 72,000 spectators occupied almost 29 miles of seats.
Another great eastern university added its endorsement to the system of numbering its football players for the benefit of the spectators at all big games, when Harvard labeled its players with the distinguishing number 112. The university also decided to take up the practice and will hereafter number her players. The University of Kansas has employed the system for two years.

GIVE CITIES PURE WATER
After experiments with agitator wastes from the Standard Oil Refinery at Neodesha, Kansas, the division of water and sewage of the Kansas State Board of Health, situated at the University, has worked out a plan to deodorize the waste, and thus prevent sewer runoff into the lake where the water drawn from the Verdigris River for the city supplies of Cherryvale, Independence and Coffeyville. Complaints from these three towns led an investigation which established the fact that the odors in the water were very similar to those which had been noticed the previous year.

In the winter of 1914-15, the first complaints were received from Independence, Cherryvale and Coffeyville. The preceding season had been exceptionally dry, with no water covered with ice for a long period. The absence of offense during previous periods of normal flow of the river seem to indicate that sufficient rain was applied to washtes by the river water had rendered them inoffensive. Plans for the prevention of the recurrence of the trouble were absolutely necessary, since the water supplies of the three towns had been unfit for use for six weeks.

EXHIBIT ART IN FRASER
Fred R. Hesser, an assistant engineer of the division, was put to work on the problem and he developed an experimental plant which succeeded in treating regularly a small part of the waste water; that is, his experiments, that variations in the methods of operating at the reinery cause great fluctuations in the intensity of the odors and agitator of the waste water; and that under ceramic filters, the flow of the waste water is so slight that it would be completely masked by the minimum flow of the river. He also found that aeration of the waste water after heating will remove a large proportion of the odor and is more effective than over or inunvented kicks or crushed rock.
As a result of the experiment carried on by Mr. Hesser in this line, a plant has been constructed by the Kansas State Board for heating and aerating the waste water. It is operated at a small cost and needs little attention. The results of the experiments, together with plants for the plant at Nodesha, will be submitted to the number of the Kansas State Board of Health Bulletin.
Copies of World's Best Painting:
Shown for Benefit of K. U.
Students
Tittian's "Sacred and Profane Love," and his "Madonna with the Cherries, have replaced the Van Tittian, which were hanging in Fraser Hall.
The showing of these pictures allows the proof of Prof. W. A. Griffith of the department of drawing and painting. The original idea was to allow two of the reproductions of the pictures from the floor room from the department's collection, to hang in Fraser Hall throughout one week, changing them each Monday; thus giving those who never have an opportunity to visit the department on the floor room from the department's building an opportunity to derive some benefit from the collection. Professor Griffith is giving the plan educational value by advancing from simple to more complex studies. While the original plan to change the paintings of the picture carried out, they have been changed from time to time and a sketch telling something of the painter, his work, methods, and the history of the painting has appeared in the Daily Kansan each time the pictures were changed. In the museum, whose office is conveniently located, has requested that the article be posted in the bulletin board beside them so she will not be called upon to tell about the pictures. Professor Griffith has made the same request as Mr. Kansan, persons have come to him for information concerning the pictures.
If the interest justifies it, the plan of showing to all the students some of the finest paintings of the collection will be continued.

A discussion class under the leadership of Rev. Noble S. Eldikerin of the Congregational Church, for the consideration of preparedness will be organized at the beginning of the second semester.

The new student directory was not published as a joke book, but there are some games in it, and to get the smiles on his has to search through the hundreds of names. The book is a museum of strange congenoms as well as a guide to tell persons where to go to call on their friends or where to mail bills to their debtors, who may or may not be friends.
The directory lists many well known couples whose names are familiar. For example, the guide says among the students on the hill are Cain and Abel, House and Loomis, and Night, Rhoades and Cole, Cole and Wood, Water and Wade, Cook and Kitchen, and Clapper, Ketchum and Skinner.
There are plenty of Sheets in the divider, but not a pillow. Many Barnes appear on its pages but not a cow. There are two Adams a single Eve near, and enough Winters to warrant the presence of a single Frankness is one of the features of the name list for it speaks of a Buman and a Langmade.
MENU OF NAMES
A sumptuous menu is listed and one does not have to be at a restaurant to see that the dishes contain Bacon, Lamb, Fish, Pears, Rice, Greens, Sage, Appels, Shugar, and Coffey.
The directory says that a Baumgardner is here for higher education which might account for some of the weeds on the campus during the year.
The day camp signers may have noted that among the Hill's residents are a Brewer and a Bierer, who probably can account for the Beverridge, Hostetstern, Treat, Stewe, Because the hill is a point here atonement is made through the listing Churche, Chappel, Parrish, Bishop and Priest.

RELICS IN MUSEUM
The collection of Indian artifacts which was made by G. U. S. Hovey of Whiteurch, Wyandotte County, Kansas and donated two years ago to the University by his daughter, Miss Aine Hovey, is at last being mounted in proper cases on the third floor of the museum (through the efforts of H.

This collection is the most complete in the museum and it is a task to properly display the relics. It is known as the largest collection in Kansas as it consists of over 10,000 pieces and is remarkable for the fact that it was taken from one locality. The French Government offered Miss Hovey $2,000 for the collection but through her generosity and Mr. Martin's efforts it was donated to the University.
Men You Know—and Don't
The reason for the delay in mounting such a valuable collection is that no appropriation was ever granted by the legislature, and Mr. Martin was forced to use the laboratory money of the department of paleontology.
Off in one corner of one of the largest divisions in the basement of Fraser Hall is a part of room that looks as if it might be a store for office-database books. But this room, Charles Horner Talbot, secretary of the League of Kansas Municipalities and head of the municipal reference department of the University Extension Division, six hours a day. From little office, 745 questions by officials in Kansas town and cities were intelligently answered last year and this man, whose office furniture consists of a diagraphic, a typewriter, few filing cabinets, some made shelves, and a desk that has been cast off. University professor and chair, comes into closer contact with the vital questions concerning the everyday life of the citizens of the state than all the teaching staff of the institution put together.
In 1909 he went to De Paun, made the debating team, helped win from Miami University and the following winter blessed Piatt county, I. U., by accepting a position as district school teacher. In the fall of 1906 he went to the University of Wisconsin and received an education in 1910. That fall he took a civil service examina- tion for municipal reference secretary in the public library at Kansas City, Mo., and started to work in that capacity in December.

Then he went to the Kansas City Star, as a reporter, covering on his first assignment, an Episcopal convention. He was promoted to the literary department and in the early part of 1913 received an invitation to come to the University of Kansas as municipal reference secretary in the extension division. His duties started in the fall of 1913.

The Kansas league of municipalities then had eighty-eight members; in two years it has increased to 130. Two big conventions of city officers have been held with some of the ablest speakers in the country on the programs of vital interests to organization in every municipality in the state and suggestions for city betternment.

NO CULTURE WITHOUT GOD
Lawrence Ministers Think Both Learning and Religion Are Needed For Complete Life
That the educational and religious activities in a community are contained in more than an incidental way is the opinion of the Rev. Henry W. Hargett, pastor of the Method Episcopical church in La Crosse, Mr. Hargett believes in learning without religion not influential, and without authority contrary to the ends of civilization; and that religion without learning is neither sane nor strong.
through the same time, John Stuart Mill was at one time an apostle of culture apart from religion. Long experience and close observation led him to the conviction that life cannot reach its fullness without religion. Near the close of the great Englishman's Life, he wrote, "There are evils that culture cannot cure; there are blessings it cannot bestow. It cannot give peace
"The true purpose of religion is the transforming, the deopening and enriching of life," said Mr. Hargett, in a recent interview. "And the aim of education can be carried to fulfillment only through religion two are vitally connected. If the American university and college prepares the graduates only to make a livelihood it should merely an adjunct to the shop and farm." If it must to prepare men and women for true purposeful living, and I think it does, it can reach its goal only through the help of the church.
to the conscience; it cannot shield life from sorrow; it cannot lessen the anguish of the human heart or dispel the shadow of death'. If the life of the individual and the world be what God plans, he should be, learning religious religion and religion must ever be kept sane and strong by learning."
WHO USES BEST METHOD?
Coach and Professor Are Causing Much Discussion in Eastern Universities
Does the coach or the professor use the better method in training the under him? This is a question that is being much discussed in the eastern universities and is beginning to receive attention here, "Independent," in a recent editorial, said that the coach is better instructor in that he begins down among the men of his profession enforces discipline of the professor from a superior level lectures down at the student. Dean Templin and Professor Haworth express their views no question in the following interviews College
Olin Templin, Dean of
There are few points of comparison, as far as I can see, between the methods in the football field in the classroom. The coach has great financial and public responsibilities in his work, whereas the professor has only the interest of the individual student to consider. Give the professor thousands dollars and the competitive reputation of the school to the care of, and his methods will then approximate those to the coach. Aside from the question of interests there is the whole field of human nature. A method used successfully by one man would be a failure in the hands of another; and would succeed in one subject fail in another. It is likely a question of pedagogical efficiency and each instruction must use the method suited to its temperament and to each class. A success of teacher must be intellectually honest; must have the welfare of the class at heart; and must choose his own method of instruction.
idea of the coaching system is fine, but it has the defect that it is likely to cause undue familiarity. This is especially true of the classroom studies and applies to a limited extent to the football field. A coach or professor that is intimate with his men and at the same time compels their respect will in all probability be successful. I like to have all my students speak to me and be free to consult at any time. In the eastern schools I remember that the students used to always tip their hats to their professors, what were as distant and aloof if it was possible to be, condition, however, is changing all over the country, and today the general tendency is for the professor to be on terms of intimacy with his students when the class allows it.

HAKESPARE CLASSSES
FOR TOWNSPEOPLE ALSO
The night class in Shakespeare under Prof. C. G. Dunap which is to be offered next semester by the Extension Department to Students in the University and townpeople will not be open to any student who has taken any course in Shakespeare before, or who is carrying more than twelve hours of work in the University during the semester, that he is carrying the course. The class will meet one night each week at the night class Prof. C. G. Dunap at 925 Kentucky St. and two hours of University credit will be given those who satisfactorily complete the required work.
Anyone who desires may take the course, as the regular University pre-requisite studies will not be required for admission to the class. As yet the course has not been definitely outlined, but in all probability the regular course in Shakespeare will be followed.

NUMBER 70.
STUDENTS SPEAK OUT
Ask Senate to Give Them a Chance to Discuss Disciplinary Measure
To the University Senate, theRespectfully recommend that theexam be closed bythe closure of dances be altered to read "The Altar" and thencollected on Friday night and attwelve o'clock on Saturday night,then the exceptions noted in therule.
Finally, that the opinion of a similar conference of women students be acertained and given would
Further, that if your body does not care to make the recommended change, the students be permitted to vote on the question.
Forty student representatives of various undergraduate organizations voted overwhelmingly to pass a dissident dance rule of the University Senate, and voted to present the resolution printed above at a meeting held last night at the request of Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women. The people who arranged it by Mrs. Brown, was to form some sort of a social committee composed of students to co-operate with her in the administration of her duties.
Typewritten slips, containing rules of social etiquette, and the new dance rule were distributed, and after a show talk, Mrs. Brown invited交会.
WHY ASK SEVENTH
Linda Thompson, president of the Men's St. John's College, asked the purpose of the meeting, and why student interest was desired, when the Senate had refused to follow the expressed opinion of a similar meeting held when the dance rule was pending. At the meeting of which Thompson spoke, held in the office of the Chancellor early in December, the rules were discussed, and students exercised closelong hour on Saturday and a one o'clock closing hour on Friday nights. This was also the recommendation of the Senate Committee on Student Interests. From this Mrs. Brown disdented in a minority report, asking that dances be ended at midnight, because they would not be allowed 12:20, and the young women were not afforded proper protection. The minority recommendation passed.
John Gleissner presented the resolution, asking its passage in view of the general dissatisfaction with the government's legislation governing dances, and because students had been given no opportunity to discuss the question.

Speeches in support of the petition followed. Mrs. Brown invited frank discussion from all the representatives, and with one exception they spoke in favor of presenting the student viewpoint to the Senate. Various reasons were offered, chief among which seemed to be the objection to student affairs without taking into consideration the student desires in the matter. The representatives also objected to the minority report of Mrs. Brown, on the ground that they were perfectly able to provide safe conduct from dances for the women of the University. Mrs. Brown explained that the desire protected lives and morals of the "seem" came a slur in her name, but for protection from the "man in the alley."
The dance rule to which the objection was offered was passed by the Senate December 7, solely on the recommendation of Mrs. Brown's minority report to the report of the Student Interests Committee. It follows:
Before the representatives spoke on the resolution, Mrs. Brown asked also if the men did not think the views of the women should be regarded. In this, all agreed with similar conference and their views will be determined.
That all dancing parties close at 12 o'clock, excepting the Junior Prom. Sophomore Hop, Lyrin Scrium, and the so-called forms of regular organizations to be deemed interested by students on Student Interest, which shall close at 2 o'clock.
Objection was also offered to the fact that student opinion, ascertained beforehand, had been disregarded, as was the major opinion of the Student Interests committee. It was also pointed out that if the women wanted the rule, as a member of the committee asserted, they would leave the dances at night for the evening and that the objection "too much dancing" would have no weight, since dances would begin earlier.
WHAT WILL WOMEN SAY?
The alteration asked will, if granted, maintain the same rule, except that Friday night dances will continue until one. The exceptions listed were not in the rule that existed before December 7, special permission for dances after one o'clock being necessary.
NO MORE SPECIAL PERMISSION
The resolution will come before the
With the coming of snow and winter, comes the thought that perhaps here in Kansas, too, the skating fad may take hold of those who enjoy out-door sports. Many of the eastern cities are closing their dance halls because their former patrons are now enjoying the dancing pavilions instead of the terpsichorean art.
A few of the more studiously inclined, are anxious to have the wintry weather last ever quiz week. Better grades, they claim, will surely result.
This picture shows how K. U. men and women took advantage of ice weather on Potter Lake and the Kaw last winter.

PEP BILL FOR 1915 IS $91
City Dads Present Expense Account to the Men's Student Council
The second tea to be given this yea by the Women's Pan-Hellenic for an incoming sorority will be held February 12 at the Chi Omega house. The tea will be held to welcome the new chapter of Alpha Xi Delta.
If prices in "pep" rallies continue to soar as rapidly in the future as they have this year, rallies from now on will have to be few and far between. The city council has presented a bill of ninety-one dollars to the Student Council to cover expenses of rallies held in Lawrence up to date.
"My plan," he added, "is to give each member of the committee a number of names of sophomores and let him collect a small amount from each during registration days for his final exam. In these there will be any use to start work now, because the sophomores will be busy preparing for their finals."
The sophomores will start a vigorous campaign the first of next semester to collect the sophomore memorial fund. "Every sophomore will be taxed a small amount," said Hugh T. McGinness, chairman, this year. We believe we can increase the last year's fund, which was $40 or $50.
A meeting of the committee will be called the last of next week, and arrangements will then be made for eating and a definite time set to tart.
You see, various persons have put in claims for damages to the city for property destroyed by over-enthusiasm and wrongdoing that make good these damages. The mayor in turn has asked Leland Thompson, president of the Student Council, to do what he can toward having the students make up this sum to the city.
SOPHS PAY MEMORIAL
DUES AT REGISTRATION
"While I don't think the students are responsible for all these damages," said Leland Thompson, "yet I believe we should be to squere ourselves with the city. There are nearly 2000 men students in the University and a small amount from each would pay off this debt. If the bill had only been presented before it was made, the law would have made it up that night. It is hardly the business of the Student Council to take care of this debt, but I'm trying to figure out some way to get the students together on what matters, and I wish they would think about it."
SCHOOL FOR MINERS
Extension Division May Open Specialized Training Classes at Galena
For the benefit of miners who cannot enjoy the advantages of specialized training at a school of mining, the University may establish extended programs in the trustees of Southeastern Kansas. Whether or not this will be done depends upon the results of the investigation now being carried on by H. J. Ingham of the extension division with the University; the requirement is sufficient demand for the course.
Just before the holidays, Prof. C. L. Grider, of the department of mining engineering, made a special trip to the zinc regions to look over the situation. Although he found a limited demand for special instruction in mine, he knew that the demand was sufficient to justify the expense of founding extension classes.
At his suggestion, the extension division is sending out a number of circular letters which, he hopes, will reveal the exact state of affairs. In case the outlook is found to be favorable, the University will offer weekly seminars on campus, probably at Galena, a town centred located in the zinc districts. An instructor from the University will have charge of the classes.
The card is sent from Christina and is postmarked on December 22. Pringle sailed with the Peace party on the Oscar II, December 4. The party was held at Prince Peter was president of the International Polity Club and was named as representative for the University on the trip, by the Chancellor.

"We are meeting with great enthusiasm here," the message reads, "we had meetings both last night and this morning here received the American students this afternoon. This is a great place for winter sports. I am going coasting tomorrow. They coast down an eight mile course in eighteen minutes, then ride back most of the way on the trolley cars."

Chancellor Strong Says Instructors Should not Keep Classes After Whistle
"DISMISS ON TIME'
"Classes should close prompt on time," said Chancellor Strong this morning in regard to his views on the "close-on-time" campaign launched yesterday by the Kansan. The students must also dislike the maternity the whistle blows. There can be no question about that, and I think there would be no question if the matter were brought up in a faculty meeting. For my part I am decidedly in favor of promptness at the closing and opening of classes."
"If students and faculty will cooperate," the Chancellor continued, "far better results will be obtained. You'll see that when on time—and they are entirely justified in this request—they ought to come to class right on the dot. Then no one will lose what he is entitled to; you will anyone be imposed upon."

MINE LIFE SAVING
APPARATUS EXPLAINED
ART IS ON THE BUM IN MICHIGAN TOO
Dr. J. J. Rutledge delivered an illustrated lecture Wednesday in Marvin Hall. The slides dealt with the methods of mining, with reference particularly to securing safe working conditions. The United States has a few laws that with life saving apparatus. This apparatus is ready for application when a mine accident occurs, and thus greatly lessens the number of deaths in mines. Dr. J. J. Rutledge is in charge of the work in the mine at Rocky Mountain States including Kansas, Utah, Oregon, Washington and California. The slides included pictures from all of these states.
Julian Street, et al, say art is on the burn in Kansas. But this time Kansas laughs last. Last week in Michigan a picture entitled "The Blue Pool" which was recently exhibited at the University of Kansas, was to be put on display. The workman who aung the picture thought it might look better upside down; so upside down it hung.
Then in came the art critics, connoisseurs, and portly gentlemen in tow of their wives who dotted on art. At Alonso there was one woman, But one afternoon a woman walked up to the picture, "Turn that picture right side up, it gives me a headache that way." And the woman was placed as it had been in Kansas.

THE STUBBS BOYS AGAIN
To the Editor of the Daily Kansas:
I notice by the Kansas that the Stubbs boys have gone to Princeton. Your paper seems to think that Kansas does not provide good enough instruction for the man who has the money to go elsewhere. You seem to take pleasure in reminding students here that they are not provided with the ordinary conveniences that surround students in other institutions of higher learning in the country. You go so far as to state that this glorious, much-ludged, progressive state of Kansas spends too little per student for instruction and laboratory facilities. You state that the man with one thousand dollars worth of property spends only fourteen cents toward the upkeep of the University of Kansas. When I read these things, I could not understand what they meant.
But it is all true. As a student at this school, I wanted to know where we stood. My investigation showed me that in 1914, the tax payer in the state of Kansas paid on one thousand dollars worth of property 13.04 cents toward the University of Kansas. You were a little too considerate last night in stretching the amount to fourteen cents. For the education of fifteen thousand students at the University, Agricultural College, State Normal, Fort Hays Normal, State Manual Training Normal at Pittsburgh, School of Mines, Olathe School for the Deaf and the Kansas City School for the Blind, the man with a thousand dollars worth of property spends only 40.86 cents. These are actually figures worked out from the report of the state auditor.
The Kansan bewailed the fact that on'y $176 were spent for the instruction of a K. U. student.
That seemed quite a little sum to me until I looked around to see what other universities of our rank were spending. Wisconsin spends twice as much, as does Illinois, California, and Michigan, Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Washington, Ohio and 22 other states provide more than does Kansas—this great state with educational ideals.
Yet Kansas is out of debt.
100 Kansas is out of debt.
When I hear this talk about Kansas leading, I get sick at heart, I am a loyal Kansan, but I am ashamed of the fact that my University is twenty-first in the land and that my state ranks twenty-sixth in general education. I have a reason to be ashamed.
And so the Stubbs boys have gone to Princeton!
UNIVERSITY MAY FINE
STUDIES WHEN CUT CLASS
Senior.
Another tale of woe. Chancelor Strong, upon recommendation of the University Senate, has appointed a committee from the Deans of the University to investigate the number of cuts which are being charged against University students. Inquiries will be made as to the method in use at the other universities and colleges', and a definite plan will be adopted to cut down the cuts. Some colleges give double cuts and others fine the students. Of these all will be come up for discussion. The decision of the committee will be given to the senate at the next regular meeting and a system of penalties may be adopted.
Anne Gittins, Y. W. secretary, left for Manhattan Wednesday evening to be one of the leaders at the Raymond Robins campaign held there this week.
RICH MAN. POOR MAN!
All Classes of Parents Send Their Sons to K. U. Mr. Stubbs Excepted.
A BISHOP AND A SOLDIER
When ex-governor W. R. Stubbs took his two sons to Princeton this week, K. U. lost a chance to add another specimen of paterfamilias to the varied collection of parents. A glance over the occupations in which fathers of K. U. students indulge in family activities, a fastidious mother who has high social ambitions for her sons,for she might find that in class he sat next to a carpenter's son, for there are several of them here. Or it might be a janitor's son. But again he might be the son of a capitalist or of a musician who has won an award. For K. U. students come from a most miscellaneous group of parents.
The enrolment cards in Registrar Foster's office offer some very interesting facts. The parents of 2473 students pursue over fifty different callings. There is only one member of the army, while there are two missionaries, forty-one peace-loving pastors, and one bishop.
The economic chasms between the parents are vast. There is one capitalist who has sent his offspring to the University, while sixty-six laborers and mechanics are represented. The students, brokers, and nineteen clerks and stenographers. Thirty-five parents are stockmen, with one musician, one architect and three band directors. There are only thirty teachers, twenty-two professors, and one chancellor who teach children an education. Only one watchman finds that he can give his child the advantages which he was perhaps denied. Perhaps the most interesting fact is that 475 parents are farmers and their children who attend college. Among the students' fathers are 238 merchants and millers and thirty-five manufacturers.
DOCTORS AND UNDERTAKERS
Only one nurse has a child in the University, but her professional allies, the doctors, dentists, specialists, and opticians have 101 enrolled. Their opponents, or helpers, the undertakers number only three. Only one author and one moving picture are represented. Orphans are rather numerous. The twenty students declaring they have no parents. Nine students have decided that single life was not the best and have signed up as being married. Three hundred and sixty-three K. U. students did not tell what their parents are doing. Of the 151 who are retired, most of them are farmers; the rest most business men, lumbermen, bankers, ministers, and dairymen.
The order of the leading groups of parents of K. U. students follows: first, farmers; second, merchants; third, retired citizens; fourth, real estate, loans and insurance agents; sixth, railroad employees; seventh, railroad employees; eighth, contractors, builders and carpenters; ninth, engineers.

Almanac
MARK TIME.
Holding classes overtime has grown into such a habit with a number of the faculty members that it seems as though the matter should be brought to general attention. Carelessness, thoughtlessness and inconsiderateness on the part of professors are at the bottom of the whole trouble. No professor willfully and maliciously forces his classes to be late for lunch, time after time; he merely forgets that boarding house keepers are not so considerate as his wire in keeping meals hot and waiting. And not having to dash from one building to the top floor of another building across the campus he never considers how inconvenient a three or five minute delay may be.
Complaints have been coming in all year from students and faculty members who are constantly inconvenienced through classes being held over time. Faculty members have felt as deeply over the matter as the student body, and since the complaint has been so general the Daily Kansan has adopted a measure of publishing the names of the guilty professors and the classes which were held after the whistle blows.
Professors have recourse to various forms of punishment for students who habitually late to class, but students can only wait and wriggle. If we are to have system introduced into our University life this year the first thing to remedy is slovenliness.
IT WOULD BE A SHAME
Let's run the University on time!
Fifty years ago less than half a hundred sturdy Kansas boys and girls toiled up the rocky slope of Mount Oread to the newly founded University of Kansas. It took imagination in those days to believe that the University of Kansas was destined to become a great institution of learning, for it had only one small building and three instructors.
In the half a century that has elapsed since the children of the pioneers, clad in homepun and linssey woolsey, came to the University to drink of the Fierian spring, the University has grown to be one of the greatest in the Middle West and the prediction of Amos Lawrence, that "it's light should never be extinguished until it should illuminate the nation," bids fair to be fulfilled.
Great events are worthy of commemoration and the people of the United States have a way of commemorating the great events in the history of their country. But we of the University have grown careless. Apparently we are going to let the semi-centennial of the founding of the University go by without even having a chapel exercise. And if we do it will be to our eternal disgrace for the
spirit of these men, our forefathers, who made the school possible is worthy of a greater commemoration service than we will ever be able to give.
BE IN YOUR SEAT.
When the refree's whistle shrills at seven-thirty Friday evening in Robinson Gymnasium, Kansas will be started on the road to another basketball championship. It is going to be a new team that goes out on the floor, one that has not worked together against a strong opponent and one that K. U. students have never seen play before. The athletic management has enlarged the seating capacity and improved the arrangement over what it was last year. There is a seat there for you. Be in it Friday night when the game starts and see the Jayhawker five win its first conference game of the year.
ARE WE TOO HARDENED?
In spite of all our exclamations against the barbarian and cruelty of the war the suffering in Europe still continues. It takes more than sympathy and disapproval to alleviate suffering. The students of the University did well last year in their contributions to the Belgian Relief fund, and they did fairly well this year in contributing to the Christmas fund, but they are capable of doing more.
The latest appeal to the University students comes from the War Relief Club that has been formed in town. The committee members are asking for contributions of money and old clothing and the assistance of University women in making bandages. There are few students in the University who cannot comply with one of these requests. Almost everyone has some kind of old clothing that he could give to help dress some suffering woman, child or old man. There are thousands of women and children in Poland who have not enough rags to keep them from freezing to death, and they are dying the most terrible kinds of deaths every day. Is it too much to ask for a little thoughtfulness on our part to help relieve this suffering?
If you cannot give even a few cents to the committee, hunt for some discarded clothing, or at least give a little time to the making of bandages and hospital supplies.
Every afternoon, those fellows are out in the cold wind running over bad roads. And it is good work for Kansas. That's the part of it that counts. They do it for their school.
To Captain Fred Rodkey and all the rest of the "under-dressed" who are working to see that Kansas makes the Missouri Valley track bacon easy frying, we turn with a mighty cheer.
Keep the good work up, fellows,
and the Missourians will have the privilege of going through another night of agony in the spring.

Editor of the Daily Kansan;
Why can not the university classes run on time? I thought the Chancellor gave order last fall that students should not be the sound of the whistle. Yet there are professors who hold classes so long that students who go from Fraser to the Administration building have to dismissimmed classes still in session.

I have a class in the Administration building which is followed by another on the fifth floor of Fraser. I am always late to the second class and miss my assignment, which is given at the opening of the class all morning. The professor of the first class holds me over from three to ten minutes.

Nothing is gained by holding classes over time. It is a great inconvenience in my case as I have to go to the professor after class and eport present, and get the assignment.

There is a half hour off in the mornings, given over to the chapel services, that is thrown away. Only an average fifty attend and we have about 2550 students who idle or sleep away that two and a half hours every week. There are about 6,375 hours a week wasted here in school. Karen Hardy is hardly be avoided by the students. Counted in pennies that little half hour each morning is pretty costly to the students of the University.
Two kinds of people step on your metaphorical toes—professors and humans. If you are a girl you can quickly freeze with a glance any human you encounter, but you will employ a more forceful form of freezing or heating. We can offer you no suggestions, however, as to the manner of treating professors. We have suffered long and patiently, and still continue to suffer. If you ever find a remedy would it be askew too much that you send it on to us?
THE QUESTION BOX
M. C. K.
This department does not pretend to be a research department, so we do not question the host of its ability. It reserves, however, the right to refuse any information that it deems unsatisfactory or biased data that you can easily find concerning the viral problems of the patients under our care. The role of the experts in this department is to provide information on these issues.
We are a little puzzled about your meaning, Weoobegbe, we do not know whether you mean that people step on your metaphorical toes, or the toes on your feet. Since we have had trouble with people stepping on both kinds of our toes, we can be properly symmethetic.
Dear Editor:
Woebegone.
Try for a time wearing much larger shoes than you ordinarily wear. This will deceive those who step on your feet, and will probably tend to embarrass them when they discover that they have been foiled; or if you feel that they are not intentionally stepping on your feet, then they should be avoided while when you see them approaching. People are often very quick to take a hint made in such a subtle form.

SOPHOMORES MUST HURRY
Second Year Students Requested To Turn In Jayhawker Pictures
At Once
Sophomore pictures for the 1916 Jayhawker are not coming in as rapidly as had been hoped for and the committee in charge of the second year section of the book will put on a whirlwind campaign during the next ten days in an effort to sign up every second year student.
"The downtown photographers are swamped with work and all Sophomores must sign up and make dates to have the pictures filed," the annual, said Billy Koester, manager of the Sophomore section, this morning. "The size of the class makes it almost impossible to see every student and it would be a lot easier for them if the second year students would call at the Jayhawker office in the Kansan building, and deposit their fees. All pictures must be in the hands of Manager Ross Busenbank. They know that students make arrangements immediately to have them taken. Sophomores in the School of Law will be signed up by Freel Pausch, in the School of Engineering by Raymond Moynihan. However any student can call at the Jayhawker office and get fixed up."
JUNIORS TO CONSIDER
PLANS FOR MEMORIAL
Work on the junior memorial fund is reaping results according to Willard M. Glasco, chairman of the memorial committee. Only out of being put on trial, juries have been perused with a few exceptions these have responded at once.
The class has not determined what the memorial will be, but several suggestions will be considered at a joint meeting of all members of the chairman to hold before the beginning of the second semester.
The memorial work will be taken up with more vigor at the beginning of the second semester, if the chairman's plans for a systematic campaign to reach every junior, work out.
Boy Scout Scholarships
The University of Texas has begun a novel series of scholarships known as "Boy Scout Scholarships" to be awarded to boy scouts who have attained the rank of Eagle Scout. The scholarships are available as soon as scouts meet the university'sindicating requirements.Holders of these scholarships are exempt from all matriculation fees in the College of Arts, the department of education, and the department of engineering.

A SOUTHERN ROMANCE
The "Witching Hour," Now Racing Through Gauntlet, Will Appear January 12
And ever since, when the clock strikes two
She walks unbidden from room to room,
And the air is filled that she passes through
With a subtle, sad perfume.
HILL PLEASES LECTURER
The teacup color of angstromite,
the ghost of a死 and gone bon
The delicate odor of mignonette,
All the charm of a southern romance and the fascination of an old superstition, itself interwoven with romance, are bound together in the play, "The Witching Hour" which is to be presented by the Dramatic Club at the Bowersock Theater on Wednesday evening, January 12. The scene is found in Kentucky, and the southern atmosphere and spirit are the prelude to the play. The Kentucky Gentleman, the Kentucky Lady, and the real "down-south" negro parts add charm to the play.
In all that tells of her presence;—yet
Could she think of a sweeter way?
The sharp axe of the eligibility committee has fallen upon the players and Frank Miller has been forced to take on an absurdly heavy load of Clay Whipple, one of the leading roles, will be taken by Karl Jones who has been practicing with the cast in the part of Emmette, the reporter. His acceptance will be taken by Charles Lyons.
The cast has been hard at work for over a month, before the beginning of Christmas vacation practising three times a week, and from now on until the day the play is to be given daily practice will be the order of things.
The eligibility committee and outside work have cut into the cast of the play, and a number of parts have been changed. The part of Clay Whipple, one of the leading roles in the play which was to be carried by Frank MacLachlan, told that of Judge Prentiss, another leading part, will be taken by Otto Dittmar instead of Don Burnette. Leland Thompson will take the part of Judge Henderson formerly taken by Mr. Dittmer.
Prof. A. H. MacMurray, who is coaching the play, is very much encouraged in the practices despite the recent changes, and his statements seem to indicate that the students will see one of the finest plays ever presented by a K. U. Dramatic Club on next Wednesday evening.
Professor Carter of the department of education was greeted Monday morning by one of his students in the following manner: "Happy new year to you! Did you have a pleasant vacation?"
"Yes, indeed," replied the instructor, "rather a quiet vacation—but I didn't have the grippe," he added triumphantly.
The instructor hurried on to his class and in his haste, he forgot to wreck on wood. As a result, he woke up with meat in his classes yesterday—he has it now too.
Class Work Made Money
Guy Moore, senior in the College,

Dean Southwick of Boston Admit That There Is Nothing New In Shakespeare
Order McNish's sulphosaline. Both phones 198—Adv.
Dean Henry L. Southwick, of the Emerson College of Oratory at Boston, Mass., appeared on Mt. Oread yesterday for the first time in his extensive travels. And he was much surprised.
I thought that you could put a teeter board over Kansas and it wouldn't tip a bit. But this is a real 'Hill.' I like it, and especially the good fresh breeze you get here. I am glad to know that Kansas can boast such hills as we get back east. You can't get ahead of Kansas.
"About Shakespeare?" he questioned, as his steel gray eyes twinkled. "Well, since there are several libraries full of Shakespeare books, I really don't believe that there is anything that hasn't already been said. But I am also glad he has given to Shakespeare, because he has given us the best bits of eloquence for oratory of any of the English writers. And since oratory is my business, I am a great admirer of Shakespeare.
"At our school we have always been fortunate in having some of the best Shakespearean scholars of this country. Emerson was the first and for whom our school is named. Then we had Henry Hudson, who is now Miss Emerson. Besides these two, there was W. F. Rolfe, who has successfully edited more texts for school use than any other American.
"Egg" Accidently Killed
"I give Richard III this afternoon and that is one of my favorite readings, although I like it. I read most any of Shakespeare's eleven poems of his most eloquent passages, for force of language Shakespeare has no equal."
"Egg" Henderson, porter at the Jack Houch barber shop, was accidentally killed in Kansas City last evening, when running for Santa Fe train number 17. He was hit by a truck and rolled under the train. "Egg" was known to nearly all the men students he had recruited, including shining abilities and his wit which he always displayed around the barber shop. The Kansas City police did not know who he was. When he did not show up for work this morning it was discovered by Jack Houck that he had gone to Kansas City.
Plain Tales from the Hill
New basketball jerseys arrived at the office of W. O. Hamilton on Monday, and will be used for the first time in the games with Ames on Saturday. The jerseys are of the same style as those last year.
Marjorie Templin, daughter of Dean Templin, and a student in the Graduate School, returned to Lawrence Sunday from Brandon, where she has been with her parents during the last two weeks.
Norman J. Greer funnised a few thrills for Prof. L. N. Flint's class in advertising on Monday, when he crawled out on a ledge six inches wide and sixty feet above the ground, and walked on it until he entered classroom rooms. The door of the class room had blown shut and locked itself, and the students were unable to get in from the outside. Greer made his trip along theledge after a call for the junitor had proved successful. Jeremy's class room by a window, he easily unlocked the door from the inside.
Prof. W. L. Burckd, of the School of Law, has been appointed by Governor Arthur Capper to represent the state of Kansas at the meeting of the National Conference on Immigration and Americanization which occurs in Philadelphia on January 19 and 20.
C. H. Westfall, pressman for the Daily Kansan, better known as "Dad," put on his high boots and waded around in the snow for two days last week on the north side of the river near Governor Robinson's farm. He went back to the farm and want to go back to the farm. He brought in rabbits and squirrels enough to last all winter — if picked and preserved in the right way.
Illness and la gripe have caused at least twenty withdrawals from school, according to a statement to the minister. As Esterty, secretary to Dean Templin.

TO START DIVING CLASSES
Plan To Have A Swimming Meet
The new diving board for the swimming pool has arrived!
"We haven't been able to do a thing as yet with our class in fancy diving, on account of the broken spring board," said Miss Hazel Pratt, women's instructor in swimming. "Everything is ready now, though, and the class will start in fine shape. A great many girls have already signified their intention of sailing, and the next plan will be for them to be very interested to get in the class at the very first. I don't believe I ever saw the girls display such an interest over anything, before."
Miss Pratt came a step closer as she said, "Now mind, I'm not saying this for certain, but if things go as we have planned, the University of Kansas is to have a really truly growing men among the women of the school in which will be under the supervision of the Women's Athletic Association."
Any woman in the University is eligible for membership in the class, the only restriction being that she must swim effectively two different strokes.
The meetings of the class are here on Monday at 4:30 and on Thursday at 5:30.

STUDY CLASS DOWNTOWN
Professor C. G. Dunlap opened a class in Shakespeare last night which will meet every Wednesday. It met in Room 7 of the Manual School, on Monday, the Ninth and Kentucky streets. The purpose of this class is to give the public school teachers and other residents of the town or college an opportunity to devote their leisure time to this work for the two hours that will be needed by them in the pleasure and knowledge that is to be gained from this course.
Hamlet will be the first play to be studied by this class. The exact enrollment of those who expect to take this Shakespeare work is not known, but many more are expected to enroll later this week.

BASKETEERS SHOW SPEED Present Indications Are That Ames Will Receive Usual Treatment
The Ames five has the advantage of the Kansas squad because of the experienced men which they have back this year. With a new team entirely Hamilton's men must face more organized competition for the first game of the season. Basketball knowledge has been drilled into the Kansans until they know what to do and when to do it.
A tough scrummage with the Haskell Indians made up the work for Hamilton's squad last night and showed that the men are in good shape. The team faced "night" overwhelming defeat on the visitors from South Lawrence. No official scare was kept but the consistency with which the team played made easy picking against the fast Brave forwards.
The practices this week have been very satisfactory to the coaches and have led these men to believe that Ames will be handed a defeat similar to the one last year on the Ames court.

STUDENTS REFORMING
OUR CROP OF ATHEISTS
There are two great changes in the students of today and yesterday which have come to his notice as being the most prominent: first, that students of today are not so dehydrated absorbed in the religious religion and second, that they are not so much given to playing pranks on their teachers.
"As I look back upon those days," Professor Haworth said, "it's seems strange to me that the chief topic of the students' conversation should have been religion. I don't mean by this that they were pious. The fact is two-thirds of them were followers of Bob Ingersoll. Between classes, on their way to and from school, while roaming campus, students often continually discuss themes of a religious nature. As a topic of interest, religion easily held sway over sciences and other studies. Today this is not the case and I believe the change is for the better.
In discussing the pranks played upon their teachers by the students; Mr. Haworth recalled many amusing
THE CHAPEL SKELETON
"In those days we had no gymnasium or athletics in which students could work off their surplus energy," he continued, "and so it was natural that they should give vent to their pent up vitality in conceiving for trickling water and sitting a skeleton down over the heads of a peloton during chapel, were of common occurrence. There is one prank in particular that I remember very well, and is too good to keep. It happened in '78 when I am omore. The man, a fake telegram to navigator Marvin announce the death of one of the regents, Dr. F. T. Ingalls at Atchison, brother of the U. S. Senator John J. Ingalls. Dr. Marvin received the telegram just before chapel time and announced the sad news to the students and faculty in chapel that morning.
DEATH REPORT GREATLY EXAGGERATED "Immediately after the meeting a few of the faculty members, including Chancellor Marvin, rushed to Atchison and made inquiries as to the time of Dr. Ingalls' funeral. They were politely informed that Mr. Ingals was hale and hearty and at present conducting a meeting in a certain church,and that, as Mark Twain said,

FORM SOCIAL DOMAIN
After the resolution was disposed of, of the meeting of the meet- the one considered—the formation of a social committee. On motion of Karl Pinckard, this resolution was passed: "That a social committee be formed, the committee to consist of a represen- tative from each school of the city, from each class, from the Men's Student Council, from the Women's Student Government Association, from the Men's Pan-Hellenic, and from the Women's Pan-Hellenic. The committee shall elect a chairman, who shall co-operate with Mrs. Brown."
Freshman President Injured
the reports of his death were "greatly exaggerated." The delegation, discovering the hoax, sent a telegram to Dr. F. H. Snow, then leader of the chapel, in order that he might announce the correction. But for some reason it did not get through the hag and in the next day the chapel the teacher invited to pray and song, and to cullogizing the deceased Dr. Ingalls. Later in the day, the teachers returning from Atchison, were met at the depot by a mob of noisy students and informed that the esteemed gent still living there this season were so scorned to serve him six to twelve months. They returned to school later, however, and at present their children are attending the University."
A. A. Axline, president of the freshman class, had the ligaments torn loose in his right ankle this morning while doing gym training—ray-handed by the Physiology showed there was no bone fracture, as was feared.

IT WAS DECIDEDLY WET
The Past Year Has Been Unusual In Various Ways, Particularly In Moisture
From a soft water standpoint the past year has been the wettest that Kansas has known for the past forty-eight years. For 112 days moisture in such an area remained half a century were put to shame. The meterological summary for 1915 issued by the University and continuing the record kept by the late Dicker in 1936 shows that the number of hot days was lacking. An average year has 34, but 1915 had only three.
The mean temperature of the year, 55.03 degrees, is 1.54 degrees above the annual mean for 48 years' record. The highest temperature recorded was 93.04 degrees on January 28. The mean temperature of the winter months was 27.9 degrees or 4 degrees below the average winter temperature. The lowest temperature was 26.8 degrees; of the summer 71.1 or 4.5 degrees below the average, which is 75.6.
The warmest month of the year was July, with a mean temperature of 74.0 degrees. Of the three hotest days of the year, one was on the first day of May and one the first day of August. The mercury fell below zero only three times while the average number of zero days is six.
The entire rainfall including melting snow was 51.62 which is 14.54 above the annual average. Either rain or snow fell in measurable quantities on 112 days which is sixteen more than the annual average. The heaviest rain of the year was 3.78 inches on May 27.
The average humidity of the atmosphere was 71.7 per cent. The dampest was January with a humidity of 81.0 per cent. The driest month was June with a humidity of 59.2 per cent.
The number of miles traveled by the wind during the year was 108,360 which is 12,622 below the annual average. This gives a mean daily velocity of 296 miles and a mean hourly velocity of 340 miles. The three months were February, May, and November, and the three most calm months were June, July, and August.
MANY INTERESTED IN PEACE PRIZE ESSAY
"No one knows how many students are entering the race," said Prof. F. H. Hodder, when interviewed today in regard to the Bryan Peace prize essay contest.
The essays are not due until May 1. When they are turned in they must be signed by an assumed name, which together with the real name of the author, must be enclosed in a sealed envelope and deposited with Chancellor Strong at the same time.
The committee expects a large number of students to try for the prize for the reward is one of no small consequence.

Foster, Registrar, says that this number was very small in comparison with the sales of other years and is probably due to the fact that there were too many other relief funds this year.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 7.1916
NUMBER 71.
SEASON OPENS TONIGHT
Jayhawkers Will Meet Ames in First Basketball Game
Snowtime on Mt. Oread
(1)
BOB-SLED PARTY
PLEASE RESPOND WITH THE QUESTION BEST USE THIS FORMAT.
The lovers of basketball who inhabit Mount Oread will have their first chance to seb the 1916 Kansas action in squad when Coach Hamilton's offering appears on the floor tonight for the first game of the season. Missouri Valley Conference race will officially open with this contest.
BOB-SLED PARTY
In spite of the fact that it is the initial game of the season for both teams, this will doubtless prove more of a detriment to the Kansas than to their northern rivals. Among them with a squad of three players together with a coach although not all veterans, they know better what to expect of each other than do the men of the crimson and blue aggregation. For with only two men on the Kansas five who have ever played Varsity ball before, it could certainly remain a matter of mystery as far as the Kansas side is considered.
Four first class guards are to be found in Nelson, Wilson, Uhrlaub and Appel and probably the first two will start the game tonight. However, all four will give a chance in the game. Hoffman and Heath have given their ability and will get a chance to show their ability in the opening game.
TEAM WORKS HARD
PLENTY OF SEATS
But in spite of all the practices this week and the weeks previous Coaches Hamilton and Sproull have not been able to pick five men to start the game tonight. The only sure bet for the opening of the game is Cole, who will be selected and will be allowed at this position if the results of the first half will allow any substitution. Kowder, Gibbons, Pattinson and Kennedy stand equal chances of getting into the game at the two forward positions and all of them may get in for a short time. Miller and Gibson have also been showing up well of all.
Practice for the past week has been strenuous. On Monday night the "town gang" composed of former K. U. and city stars, including Mason Wright, "Lefty" Shrubbil, furnished the opposition for the Varsity squad. No score was kept but the "town gang" has a habit of taking the long end of the score. This time the defense of the Jayhawkers was better and the score was estimated at 35-14. The team made up most of the work with the three squads of Varsity men working against each other. Wednesday was the big practice of the week for the Haskell Braves came from their share of the scoring in "right" that night and the result proved an overwhelming defeat for the Indians.
The enlarged seating capacity of the gym will enable the handling of any sized crowd which may appear. With 616 reserved seats on the main floor and more than that number of unreserved seats in the balcony no one will have to stand to see the games unless the excitement be brought to life. The number of tickets has been good and a packed gym is expected to welcome the start of the "green" 1916 K. U, squad on the road to another Valley championship.
no captain has yet been chosen to take the place of Ray Folks, who did not return to school this year. A head for the team will be appointed for the two games with Ames, and an election held next week.
EXTENSION DIVISION
WANTS OLD MAGAZINES
If you have any old magazines that you do not want, give them to the correspondence division for use in their package library service.

If your prof holds you after the whistle blows, call K. U. 25 and give the Daily Kansan his shirt and the class which was held over.
"We have a constant demand for material that is contained in magazines, especially those issued during the last year," said Miss Nellie Stevenson, instructor in the division, yesterday. "We always find use for such public materials, like the Outlook, World's Work and Review of Reviews, and will appreciate any copies that the students can no longer use.

There are three courses for University credit and one special course. The new classes will be started about the twenty-fourth of this month.
HELP EUROPE'S SOLDIERS
Students Will Make Band ages and Supplies for Civic League
Bandage making and the preparation of hospital supplies promises to be a new way in which the students of the University can help the warring European nations, if the plans of the Lawrence section of the National Civic league to organize a student session of this society materialize.
During the Christmas vacation the work of extending the activities of the league over the entire state was started by the organization of such a society in Lawrence, and since that year has been made up of in making bandages and guae surgical sponges to be sent to the European base of the society in Paris and Bordeaux. From these two points the supplies are sent out to the field and base hospitals at the formerly handled by the Red Cross Society of this country, but on account of many other activities this special work was left in the hands of the National Civic League of which Miss Mary Willard is intermédiaire and Mrs. Ethelbe Nevin, wife of the compere is foreign secretary.
LAWRENCE WOMEN CAN INSTRUCT
In order that the work might be expanded in Lawrence a course was given to a number of Lawrence women during the vacation qualifying them as instructors in making, rolling and packing bandages. The Executive Committee of the University of Miss Edith H Snow, Mrs. T. H, Chalkley, Mrs. F. M, Benedict, and Miss May Gardner, the treasurer.
Work is being done every Monday and Thursday afternoons in the parlor of the Uitarianian church under the direction of the Executive Committee. About fifty women have been out every time the association has met thus far, including a number of the wives of faculty members, and a number of University women having worked in the labor put on a better working basis it is the plan of the Executive Committee to start a Saturday meeting so that the University women can have a time when they all can get together.
New material is used in making most of the bandages. They are made of muslins and gauzes. There is however, a need for old sheets, pillow cases, linens, and in fact any old clean white goods.
STUDENTS CAN GIVE OLD CLOTHES
"There is also a demand for old clothes that would be worth the shipping, and here the young people of the
University can respond as never before," said Miss Snow of the Executive Committee this morning. "According to Vernon L. Kellogg, faculty members at the University委屈 and special envoy from Germany to investigate conditions in Poland, the two most needed things in the war zone today are hospital supplies and medical equipment trying to supply as much of these as is possible for us to gather and ship."
All shipments are being made to the National headquarters of the National Civile League in New York City by Express, as the freight routes are slow and uncertain. Shipments are made every week through the port, and the returns that are coming in are very encouraging to the members of the league.
CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT STERILIZES
All of the bandages and supplies prepared in Lawrence by the league will be sterilized by the Chemistry department, jacked in air-tight sealed tin boxes and shipped for immediate transportation to the front. The chief kinds of supplies that are being made are plain gauze bandages of all widths, special muslinal fracture bandages, and gauze surgical sponges.
It is estimated that two hundred and fifty dollars will carry the work of the league entirely through the winter. Thus far ninety dollars have been donated, and it will be interrupted while the rest of the necessary amount is being raised. The Executive Committee is not asking for any large contributions to the fund, but it is hoping that every one in the team can contribute a little or able to contribute a little in either time or money to the work. A number of down-town merchants have been very liberal in donations of their products to companies have given liberal reductions on the shipments of bandages and clothing already sent.
The Ford peace expedition was a total failure in the opinion of the K U. Debating Society. The question "Resolved that the Ford Peace Expedition was a practical method of procedure" was not answered and Europe" lost at the meeting last night. It was defended by Whitehead and Brungton. The negative was taken by Asher and Reser. The question at next week's meeting will be "Resolved, that the Federal Constitution should be so amended as to make the laws easier to understand." The affirmative side will be Hagen, Walsh, and Schmutz; the negative, Woolsey, Stuewe, and Read.

REMITS SPECIAL FEB
K. U. Board Remedies Condition Prevailing in Fine Arts School
The $5.00 matriculation fee which has been charged of students wishing to take special work in the School of Fine Arts at the University, has been ordered refunded by the Board of Trustees of the Fine Arts faculty. Hereafter, no fee will be charged for this special work.
The order was issued because of the many complaints received from students who thought it unjust that they should have to make extra payment in order to take the work. Heredity and other factors are some of some teacher in the School of Fine Arts had to pay the regular matriculation fee.
"We expect a large increase in the enrollment as a result of the new order," said Harold L. Butler, dean of the School of Fine Arts. "We have a faculty of highly trained and experienced instructors and the people of Lawrence should look to the college for children to us rather than to some out-of-town school or to some professor who comes to town but once a week."

GLOSE FORMALS AI
University Women Would Have Annual Parties Close at 1 o'Clock Too
THE WOMEN'S PLAN
THE MEN'S PLAN
We recommend that this resolution, together with the one proposed by the University Senate, with the request that they be acted upon.
With all respect to the committee of men's student organizations we reject the rules for closing dances, and substitute the following rule for closing dances, and the committee of women's organizations. All dances shall close at 10 a.m., and Saturday night dances which shall close at twelve. There shall be no
To the University of Toronto, we regularly recommend that the rule governs the closing hour of dances be broken all close at one ́clock on Friday night and at twelve ́clock on Saturday night, with the exceptions noted in the
+ partner, that if your body does not care to make the recommended change, the students be permitted to vote on the question.
*[This rule allows formal parties to last till two o'clock.-Ed.]
Finally, that the opinion of a similar conference of women students be ascertained and given due weight.
At a meeting of representative University women which met last night at the call of Mrs. Eustace H. Brown, adviser of women, to discuss the recent dance ruling, a resolution was addressed to the University Senate asking that all dances held on April 30 be closed at club. There are to be no exceptions, none of the annual parties are to continue after 1 o'clock.
A similar meeting of representative men which was held Wednesday night adopted resolutions asking that dances continue until 1 o'clock, Saturday excepted, and that formal parties and the Prom and Soph Hop, be allowed to continue later as under the old rule. Both resolutions mitted to the Senate by Senate at its extention at a special meeting if we can be called, in the hope that the Senate will pass a rule more in harmony with student sentiment.
HISTORY OF THE FU $ ^{\infty} $
A number of sheets setting forth the proposed social etiquette and the new dance rules were passed. After stating her case and a short comment from Mrs. Brown, asked for the frank opinion of the women in the meeting.
At the beginning of the meeting, Mrs. Brown explained that it was her minority report, from the meeting of the committee on student interests, that was passed by the Senate, and it came as a surprise to her. She explained that the 12 o'clock rule as passed by the Senate was the faculty women of the university, of which organization, Mrs. Frank Spangler had been representatives at the meeting in the Chancellor's office. At that time a 1 o'clock rule was passed with Mrs. Brown's as only the dissenting vote.
An open discussion showed a division of opinion as to the exact form the change should take; but there were only five women we were in favor of the twelve. We ruled out of these being ones who do not blame Blanch Mullen, president of the W. S. G. A., crystalized sentiment when she spoke in the name of the W. S. G. A. and Kappa Kappa Gamma. Miss Mullen was for a universal 1 o'clock rule with no exceptions. After Miss Mullen's statement, most of the women expressed themselves in favor of the 1 o'clock rule. Mrs. Spangler was against it, posed rule, and several faculty women present said that knowing students as they did, felt that Miss Mullen's proposal was most satisfactory.
CAN'T GET DRESSED AT 8
Maureen McKernan, in a plea for the later hour, cited the difficulty girls living in high school have a large library in their homes for ready to read for a dance at eight o'clock.
Miss Nadine Nowlin, of the faculty, in expressing her opinion said that she was in favor of the 1 o'clock school day. She said she hadn't to school herself. Miss Nowlin said: "I agree with Miss McKernan. It will be necessary to have a faculty supervision of student bathing, along with the rest of the rules we are making; if we fail to follow them, a big ban would be able to get ready for a dance at 8 o'clock."
“ALMOST PERSUADED”—MRS. BROWN
ALMOST PERSONADED — MRS. BROWN
"Thou almost persuet me," said Mrs. Brown after listening to the woman's side of the question. In a final vote there were only four candidates for the rule. This morning Mrs. Brown said that she was still in favor of her own rule but could see the student's side.
The main arguments of the women were that 12 was too early to close a dance, and that the real harm came, not from the 1 o'clock dances, but from the formal parties that were allowed to last so late as an eclipse. In the school, the later dances should be done away with, and the 1 o'clock dances allowed.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Lawrence, Kansas.
Phone, Bell K. U. 25.
Published in the afternoon five times a week, by students of the University of Kansas, from the press of the Department of Journalism.
The Daily Kansaan aims to picture the university of Kansas, to go further than merely printing the news, to teach the students the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be courageous; to be leave more serious problems to wiser heads; to be friendly; to ability the students of the University.
FRIDAY, JANUARY 7, 1916
THE ISSUE
The Daily Kansan is not concerned with the question of when dances should close. It does not pretend to say whether they should close at eleven o'clock or two o'clock.
The question is this:
The question is:
Isn't it a breach of confidence on the part of the Seite, after asking for and obtaining student opinion and sentiment, to pass a rule in direct opposition to that student sentiment?
Before the rule was passed by the Senate fifty representative students were assembled in the Chancellor's office and stated their opinion on the question of the closing dance hour. The committee on Student Interests then voiced an opinion similar to that expressed by the students. And in direct opposition to that sentiment the Senate passed a rule on a minority report.
Once more has this old question arisen because the student body and some members of the faculty do not agree with the Senate and its rule. The rule has been referred to representatives of the student body, both men and women, and a very decided opinion has been voiced by each committee. Now what will the Senate do? Will the sentiment of the student body be ignored again or not?
The regular meeting of the University Senate is a month away. Why not call a special meeting of that body to consider this question?
We don't see how they are going to be able to give a law course in the college unless they put some decent sized steps in front of Fraser Hall.
WHEN THE BLOOD IS COOL
The Men's Student Council found itself in a peculiar position just before the holidays when a bill was presented to it by the city authorities who had paid nearly $100 to citizens of the town for damages done to property during the rallies that were held near the close of the football season.
There is no doubt but that the damage was done. In the excitement of the moment when fuel began to run low, buildings, sheds and vehicles were found and added to the flames. Perhaps the damages are a little high and the property overvalued, but damage was done to practically that amount which the Lawrence commission has paid. Perhaps the offending students were freshmen who have dislocated ideas of right and property. But whether they were or not, the damage was done.
What is to be done about it?
The Student Council frankly admits that it doesn't know what it is going to do.
It says it has no funds. It says that there is no way to reprimand the students who did the damage because no one knows who they are. Of course there is nothing constructive that can be done now in the present case, except to find some one to pay the bills. But next year is coming and with it are coming rallies.
The time for deliberative legislative action is when the blood is cool. Laws and regulations should be passed now and be given enough publicity so that they would be thoroughly understood.
The Daily Kansan does not believe that any legislation should be attempted which would diminish the number of rallies. We didn't have enough as it was. But the Daily Kansan does think that an attempt should be made to regulate rallies. Some person or group of persons should be appointed who would have it as their special duty to collect or provide material for rally bonfires, and to regulate the actions of the students at these rallies.
This trouble can be relieved a great deal by finding out some way to pay part of these bills and find some system of regulating rallies in the future.
UTILITY FIRST!
At the present time those in charge of the memorial for the present senior class are looking about for a suitable gift to the University. Memorials are often looked upon as Christmas gifts. To make a gift especially "christmasy" it must be decidedly impractical.
There are many memorials which suggest themselves, no doubt. Some are more practical than others. The gift which will be the most appreciated and the longest remembered by the student body, will be something that can really be of use.
There are so many things about the campus that can be improved that there is no necessity for getting anything in the way of a memorial that will not be useful.
DESERVE COMMENDATION
Many of the wealthy professors a Harvard are showing their true character in assisting the university through its present financial crisis. They have refused to accept their salaries and are turning back the total amount to the regular college fund.
it is a pleasure to read about such sincere expressions of loyalty and unselfishness in this age of commercialism, and those men who made the sacrifice, however small, are to be commended as setting a noble precedent.
German soldiers are wearing muffs in the trenches to keep their hands warm, according to press reports. The next thing we know they'll adopt hoble skirts to keep the soldiers from retreating.
Now that the student directories are out it is becoming evident that the new room house contracts haven't much force.

But turned away without delay
The Wichita Beacon is expecting lively things around Mt. Oread this month if there is anything in a name. It anticipates a moment of the Hammer for editor-in-chief, and a Clapper for news editor.
And bolted for the door;
For I had seen in one brief look,
The man! This is a man.
The words, "This is a gripping book."
There is a good deal of similarity between the state that goes out of debt when its people need a better university and better roads and the man who mortgages his life insurance policy to buy a touring car.
It begins to look doubtful that the Kansan's Pharmacy issue had any effect in checking the ravages of the gripe.
"There's a fortune in it," said the man on the car, "for the fellow who hurries up and puts fur-trimmed stationery on the market."
Many students would make good book-keepers, so says Sincie in Southwestern College Collegian, because they never return borrowed books.

Editor of the Daily Kaiser There is a senior in the University who believes that these of the instructors in freshman rhetoric are accustomed to assign theme subjects to the first year students that are far beyond their comprehension. This man has been appointed by his fraternity to help the freshmen with their work in English literature. He tracks track of their grades and tutors who have trouble in keeping up with their work.

And we venture to say that the average senior in the University hasn't a very clear conception or just what it is either, and that he couldn't write a satisfactory essay on the subject. We'll leave you; wasn't the subject so deep for an assignment for a freshman and the worst of it is that just such assignments are being made every day. Possibly that's one of the reasons why so many freshmen quit school.
Last week, he says, a freshman came to him and wanted him to explain what "intellectual curiosity is. The senior didn't usually know, at least he did, any subject the freshman get necessary and look up the words "intellectual" and "curiosity". They combined the two definitions and still they didn't have the slightest conception of how to class on the screen. More the evening all the seniors in the house had been called in and none of them felt equal to the task of explaining to the freshman what the instructor wanted. As a result the freshman went to class with him and the instructor quit half an hour trying to explain to him what "intellectual curiosity is. The freshman didn't understand any more about the subject when the professor through then and he has started that theme yet. He is beyond him.
A comprehension of the subject is beyond him.

THE END OF THE RAINBOW
THE ELEPHANT
Youth is commonly referred to as the springtime of life. It is looked upon as that period in man's existence when all his days are happy, when joy is in his blood, when the ways to the attainments of his ideals are made smooth and easy by unseen hands and storms come only that the sun will seem brighter on these days. It is a pretty story that has remained in literature and legend because it is not entirely untrue.
POETS BEWARF
It may be that the disappointments and disillusions of college life are necessary to fit undergraduates for the competition they are to enter in, but it may be a futile ambition to try to accomplish something really worth while in the four years at college. At this time it is not too early for freshmen too soon to senior; hence, determine whether the goal toward which they are working is a thing of gold or of clay—Cornell Daily Sun.

CAN COAST ON LINKS
But no Sledding on Streets of Lawrence Will be Allowed
Too bad, Mr. Coaster; but unless you can satisfy your sliding proclivities by scooting down the rocky slopes of the golf links, you will have to forego the enjoyment of the finest sport that nature is able to offer.
Last Tuesday night, the Lawrence city council decided that, in the interests of public safety and the welfare of the citizens of the city, coating the little creek with concrete before be prohibited. Mayor Francisco, however, has the authority in the matter and the prohibition or regulation of the coasting question will probably proceed from his office. after the McIntyre小学 students were seriously injured. Mayor Francisco and the University authorities conferred on the question of establishing a coating place on the campus so as to eliminate any chance that time it was suggested that a course be laid off, beginning at the northeast corner of the Administration building and running northeast over the little creek at the bottom of the Hill. The proposed course would have to be perfectly safe and would have cost only about five hundred dollars.
John M. Shea, however, said today that the University is altogether too short of funds, to even consider the creation of a course this year. Mr. Shea's only consolation to those who feel that they have to slide is that they may possibly enjoy themselves on the golf links.
No Decision On Degrees
Encourage Women's Scholarship
The granting of degrees in science and journalism by the College has not yet been decided by the college committee from the senate. Some members of the committee of which Dean Templin is chairman wrote to all the leading universities and colleges of the country asking their opinions on this matter. The committee were so varied that the committee is still working on the problem.

In order to create more interest in raising the scholarship average of the sororities, the Women's Pan-Hellenic is offering a cup to the sorority making the highest average for the coming year. The cup will have the highest sorority score on it. The next year it will be passed on to the winner. This action was taken at the regular meeting Monday afternoon at the Chi Omega house.
Hard Cider Too Strong
Prof. W. S. Long, of the State Food Laboratory, returned Tuesday from Wichita where he testified in a suit brought by the State against certain retailers of hard cider. The prosecution was under prohibitory law and the State won the case, but since it was not proved that the beverage contained alcohol, they were only assessed costs.
"The frequency with which one sees Phi Beta Kappa keys flashed from the vestments of inhabitants of Wall Street often raises conjecture in the mind of the observer as to just how many there are. One can stand at Broad and Wall Streets almost any day and never lose sight of the maternal brotherhood in the course of an hour. If the army of Phi Beta Kappas in the financial district were to hold a special meeting, no body of men in any country would represent more comprehensively the work which the American college performs in fitting men for all walks of life. The hoary belief that the scholar is seldom a man related to any other in any more direct argument than by an investigation of "the records of the honor men."

NEEDS EATING HOUSE
University Should Have Restau rant on Hill Says Dean Templin's Secretary
"I believe that the University, situated away up here as it is, should have a place where students may get lunch once a day at least," says Mrs. Charles Esterly, secretary of the university. "I stated that personally, she would be glad to eat lunch at such a place. As it is she has to walk a mile to her home every day. "I believe that from two to three hundred students would take advantage of this opportunity properly organized, a cafeteria here could be made self-sufficing," she continued. When asked what should be served and who should serve it Mrs. Esterly replied that only a simple but wholesome lunch should be served and some competent woman should be given an adequate salary for opening it.
IT'S BOUND TO COME
"It would be a mighty fine thing. It is just what we need and its bound to come," said Geo O. Foster. "The Board of Administration should establish it, under the management of the Home Economics Department," he replied when asked who should take the responsibility of the cafeteria.
Mr. Foster says that the Board is in favor of such a "feed shop," but is checked in its actions on account of an adequate place to put it. The board has also considered until it was taken over by the Home Economics Department.
NEED MONEY TO START
Miss Elizabeth Sprague, head of the Home Economics Department, who has seen many successful cafeterias operated, says that she is not in doubt about her experience here, under the control of her department at least, unless it is put on a good financial basis with all the facilities and means necessary to run it in a creditable manner. She knows how to make such a difficult task at all if it has to be done in a cheap, haphazzard way. At the University of Illinois, which has one of the most successful cafeterias that I have ever seen, the highest salaried position in the entire Home Economics Department at its head," and Miss Sprague.
PADDLING YOUR OWN CANOE
No man is self-sufficient except in conceit. The merchant considers the wishes of his customers; the professional man, his clients; the newspaper, its readers and advertisers, and the private man, the wishes of the individuals making up his private world.
As children, we insist that our business is nobody's, but our own. As adults, we merely change the subject when pressed too hard from without. But the public will have none of these subterfuges. You cannot paddle your name unless you observe the trend of the current to a certain extent.
Our black walnut taffy is not only good, it is more than good. Wieden-
meyer made the recipe.
This does not mean that one must be serve or toady to get along in the company of others, but the merchant's policy altogether. The professional man cannot afford to listen to his clients talk all day. Nor does the newspaper shape its news columns to suit the advertiser. In short, the man who different personalities can be found than in some of our American homes. In short, it takes two things to paddle a canoe: first, the man to handle the oar and guide the boat; second, the acquiescence of the water that it may pass.—University, Missouri.

Struggling as a Printer's Devil, Singer Worked up Road to Fame
From a poor boy struggling to earn his living as a printer's devil to a position as assistant to Jean DeRoske, the great singer and vocal teacher, he helped teach at the Seagle, who will give the next number of the University Concert Course on January 11. Mr. Seagle is a native of Chatanooga, Tennessee. He lived there until he left for the University of York to study under different American canvase masters. He then went to Paris to study under Jean DeRoske, Finally DeRoske picked him as assistant and for ten years he taught in Paris. Until two years agoMr. Sealad studios in both London and Paris.
Recently he came to New York City where he now has a studio. He holds a summer school at Lake George every year. Last summer forty students came to him for instruction. Among them are William H. Downey of the School of Fine Arts. While DeReske travels upon his tours he gives vocal lessons for which he receives six dollars an hour. This present tour is the second that Mr. Downey gave from abroad about two years ago. It is his first Western trip.

In one town at least, in our republic, election day never causes an ache or a heartburn and never disappoints an office seeker. The name of this place is (or was) Nickeltown, Kansas. In the past year it may have disappeared, but still will have population is four, and there is a public office for every man in town. One of the boys has a fancy for the title of "Judge" and is regularly elected to the bench of the police court. To insure holding this judiciary post he keeps neutral on the mayoralty question. The other three sons for the position vote for himself; and the two losers lose little in any event, for they are guaranteed seats in the town council. "Then why is the poll not always a deadlock?" you ask. Because in Kansas the women vote. If any man in Jinyeville fails to be chosen, she goes to someone else's husband. Thus the most gallant man in town becomes its mayor.
Jitneyville once was a thriving place, with aspiration to become the county seat of Woodson county. Now its population has dwindled away to households, but it supports its identity on its humor - Harper's Weekly.

SEISMOGRAPH IN BLAKE
Have you ever seen the seismograph in the basement of Blake Hall? Here is something which will interest you whether you be an engineer or a law. The seismograph is an instrument for registering earthquakes, their duration and approximate distance away.
Smoked paper is revolved by a clock on a horizontal cylinder under two points which mark off straight lines on this paper as the cylinder extends to the earth cause the cylinder to shake while the points remain still and thus register the earth's movements, one point marking the east-west directions and the other the north-south directions, a revolving vertical cylinder upon which up and down movements are registered. At every minute the points make a slight deviation from their course, except the fifth-ninth degree of movement the observer to tell the exact time and duration of the quake.
The c'clock does not keep accurate time and its loss or gain is checked up every night at nine o'clock by the government station at Arlington.
A NEW INDUSTRY
If present indications point truly the state of Washington is soon to become one vast rabbit farm. At a recent meeting of the Tacoma Pet Stock Association figures were given that the rabbit industry may be made one of the most profitable in this country. Sixty-two per cent of the felt used by hat manufacturers in the United States is made from rabbit skins; the fur of the rabbit is used extensively in this country for imitating more valuable furs; the meat of the rabbit contains vitamins; and finally the rabbit is one of the most prolific and most cheaply grown animals of use to mankind.
Most of the rabbit skins used in America have heretofore come from Germany, but the prospect is that many European rabbits will be a large part of them—Independent.

AFRICAN CURIOS ENGASED
In contrast to the modern intricate piano there are several primitive pianos, both those used for solos and those for accompanying. These instruments are composed of simple reeds or metal reeds and band instruments or ornamented slabs of wood. In order to play the scale the player had to pick with his thumbs alternate reed staring from the ones in the middle. On the higher class musical instruments the reeds are arranged with in order to give pure tones.
New Collection From Congo Ready for Exhibition at the Museum
The unique collection of curios from the South East Belgium Congo secured by Claud Brown, a graduate of the School of Engineering, has been encased and is now on exhibition on the third floor of the museum. This collection is valued at about $4,000 but it would have cost at least $2,500 to have sent a collector over after it. In order to prevent this collection from being deposited from the University of Kansas where it had been temporarily deposited Mr. H. T. Martin, Asst. Curator of Paleontology, purchased it.
A FORGE FOR METALLURGY
LOVE FOR BRILLIANT COLORS
The collection is composed of several hundred pieces including household utensils, implements of the field, and weapons of the chase and war, all of which were used by the Lunda tribe. Practically every specimen has been marked with the image of their Petish man.
There is a miniature forge on display. This crude machine enabled the natives to separate metal from the ore which is used in the construction of their weapons. The arrows are somewhat different from those used by the North American Indians. As most of their hunting consisted in shooting fish, the heads of the arrows are half moon shaped with a little latch in the front from glancing off the backs of the fish. All the knives, axes and spears are ornamented with odd and intricate designs.
The savages' love for gaudy display is shown in the beaded headbands of the women, the brilliant hat gears of the chiefs, and the beaded armlets, some of which are tipped with leopard's teeth. The hair combs and hair pins are made of wood and are highly ornamented.
Although the tribe was not inclined towards agriculture it apparently raised a little corn. In the collection are samples of ingeniously made reed sifters through which they sifted the corn after it was ground up on stones. There are several reed baskets in which they saved the flour. Aide from the tribe are a few samples of cloth made from a species of grass known as the Rafia grass. SAMPLES OF FURNITURE ALSO PRESENT
CHARTERS OF FURNITURE ALSO PRESENT There is a very unique set of chairs which formerly belonged to one of the chiefs of the Bachohe, a tribe which is very warlike and has driven out the Lunda tribe from which this collection was formed. Upon the large number of lowhill chairs are carved sets of figures which represent the different stages of the life of the native individual.

Fees for Seeing In Fine Arts

Dean H. L. Butler of the School of Fine Arts announces that with the recommendation of the Board of Administration the matriculation fees assessed special students will no longer be taken and that they will be charged for this year will be returned to the special student enroll-
It is the desire of Dean Butter to secure a much larger enrollment for the School with this fee not only because students who have desired only a little work in music have gone to instructors that have come in from surrounding cities. This rule will not affect student payings only the regular fees.
JUST A WHISTLE
JUST WHISIT
"That man will succeed," said a professor at a passant student the other day, "because he has learned the value of whistling." And there he was, walking along with his lips puckered up, manufacturing the merriest tune. Every note submarined a file of gleam throuthiness and happiness and pain to follow. That student was whistling his way through life, and it's far better than whining or be-moaning one's fate.
One can't think of mean things and whistle. One can't be depressed, either, when whitling. Whistling is an antidote for mean thoughts and a tonic for depression. A philosophy of whistling means initiation into the great army of optimists. Try the cure some times. It's a panacea for any mental trouble. A whistle' in the classroom when everyone is out of sorts may be impractical but a pedagogical time where children weren't even allowed to stretch during school hours.
Whistle when you receive your dean's report and you'll see the light of day. Whistle when anything else goes wrong and readjustment will knock on your door. Just whistle, that's all—Ohio State Lantern.

LEND FARMERS MONEY
Seven Commonwealths Make Purchase of Land Possible for Poor Tenant
"Most progressive states of the Union are awakening to the realization of the evils resulting from a system of large landholding and many dependent tenure units," professor of economics at the University of Kansas.
- Seven states have enacted laws governing the formation and management of credit unions or co-operative credit associations, the most important being concerns over reform. Massachusetts, Utah and Wisconsin have made special provisions for the establishment of competitive farm banks, New York has provided for the organization of a Land Bank of the State of New York, while Missouri, Oklahoma and Montana have abandoned all domestic loan problems through private initiative and have modified programs of state loans.
"The reasons for the action of state legislatures in the field of rural credit legislation are not far to seek," says Professor Putnam. "With the practical exhaustion of the supply of loans, who aspires to land ownership is now obliged to depend upon his borrowing power with the various financial institutions rather than upon the generosity of the federal government. Land values throughout Mid-West and land is being held for speculative purposes."
"It is undoubtedly true that the adoption of a land credit system providing for a low rate of interest and a long term of loans, would enable a farmer to acquire land eventually to come a land owner. The short term loan at a high rate of interest, such as are made by banks run by private individuals, will not solve the problem, but these rural credit schemes, in coining of the state, granting the farmer a sum of money for a long time at a reasonable rate of interest will make it possible for the states that take the lead to give the man a bank account and expects to make the farm his home a chance to own a share of the land he works."

The new animal house of the department of biology which is being constructed south of Snow Hall is nearing completion and is expected to be in use by the beginning of next semester. The hall will be used principally for research work by the instructors of biology, although some advanced classes in psychology and bacteriology experiment there. Cages and other suitable plays for the animals and insects to be experimented upon will be provided. The first floor will be used by the physiology, zoology and entomology departments and the second floor by the bacteriology department. A greenhouse, in which plants for the animals and insects will be raised, is to be built south of the new building.

Like third grade school children ten to fifteen students can be found in the early hours of the night coasting on late hours the night coasting on the side of an inch of sole leather.

Pringle, Aboard Ford Peace Ship, Tells Daily Kansan His Adventures
Christiansand, Norway.
Dec.18,1915.
To the Daily Kansah!
I received your telephone, asking for my job. I board on the Board II soon after we left New York City. Have had no opportunity to send you any news until now except by wireless and that is rather expensive. Now, to arrive in New York at 2 p. m., Friday, Dec. 3, I found that to get a passport I must go to Washington, D. C. They had already arranged for the State Department to be kept open until midnight that night and sent a man to Washington with a number of applications.
We were fortunate, however, in the fact that owing to delay the boat did not sail until 3:15 p. m. We were not very far out until practically everyone one had Mr. Ford. He is a likeable man, but he was much in earnest. Along in the evening a small chap dressed in a messenger boy's uniform approached Mr. Ford and announced that he was a stowaway. He had come aboard bearing a letter addressed to Mrs. Inez to explain that he concealed himself until the ship was well at sea. As soon as the stowaway found out about "Jake," as the stowaway called himself, he put the poor chap to peeling potatoes down in the kitchen. But Mr. Ford, upon being impressed, established in world peace made him a member of the party. Someone gave him clothes and now he is everywhere, running errands for the office force and making himself useful generally.

Next morning we called up State Department officials and got them to come to the office a little after 8 a.m. This let us leave Washington on a 9 o'clock train that was due in late evening at 2:15 p. m., fifteen minutes after the Oscar H. was scheduled to sail.
When I awoke Sunday morning, Dec. 5, I felt rather strange. It took me just an hour to get dressed and for the next three days I was utterly miserable from seasickness. The weather got better after getting my sea legs I began to enjoy it and to attend the meetings at which the plans of the party were being gradually evolved. Among the celebrities and prominent peace workers aboard was Mr. Steele, who had later beheaded Mrs. Inez Micholland Boissevain, Mrs. Fels of Philadelphia, and Mine. Schwimmer of Austria. There were twenty-five students aboard, seven of whom were at the Cornell Conference last June, Mrs. Steele was coming on the Frederick VIII and on it are about twelve other delegates, including a Mr. Steele, who is to represent Governor Capper. Besides the regular meetings of the whole party the students have held special meetings and discussed chiefly plans for a world court and a world federation.
On the evening of the 13th just at it was growing dark the engines suddenly stopped and the boat became perfectly still. Everyone rushed to the railings to see what was the trouble. Just a little ways off lay a British patrol ship with not a light showing. So soon we say a small boat around on the leeward we saw that it was a lifeboat containing about a dozen men. Our ladder was dropped and a British lieutenant climbed aboard. He was followed by two marines and three seamen. They were able to spot the vignettes. It seemed rather strange to be made prisoners thus. The ship soon started again but our course was abruptly changed. We were ordered to go up around the northern edge of the Orkneys and into Kirkwell from the east. We got there on the event side we were led into the harbor by trawlers. These trawlers opened and swung back the submarine net so as to let us in. There was a good deal of excitement on board because the rumor started that the floats that hold the boats get up out of the water. The next morning we steamed into the harbor and anchored about half mile from shore.
HOLD BREATH WHEN ENGINES STOP
OFFICER WEARS WRIST WATCH
The British first examined our passports and the ship's papers. Then we were left there with no apparent good enough proof of our identity. I talked with the British marines on
guard on the bridge, as we steamed into Kirkwell, and one said the British are sick and tired of the war. They had to be led soided as that they can get back home.
This man had been in the navy for thirty-two years. He was aboard the Majestic when it was sunk in the Dardenelles. The leutenant was in the water, and he was a joyful fellow and rather amusing with his drawl, his wrist watch, and his passion for hot tea. He said there was considerable rivalry in the navy over the capture of the change of Peace ship and he felt proud of his good fortune.
The crew of the Oscar II say that the British showed them every courtesy possible. On the morning of the 17th the harbormaster sent out two trawlers to take off all the parcel post. It seemed rather ironical that the British could prevent Christmas packages from reaching their destinations should be named "Good Shepherd" and "Pax Vobiscum." All this parcel post—several hundred sacks—was sent to London, to be searched for contraband. This is the first time it has been done. The Scottish Captain of Scudimvun American Line, so you see the British are tightening their blockade.
About noon on the 17th the Captain received orders to sail. At 2 p. m., we left the harbors and steamed out into the North Sea. The night was clear and bright and the sea smooth with a golden sheen. Next morning we were in sight of the mountainous, snowcapped coast of Norway. It was a very clear day and we got the full clear cut beauty of he fjord as the steamer made its way across the ocean. We reached at about 3 p. m. At 5 p. m., we were away again toward Christi ans, skimming the coast all the way. Many of us remained up all right because of the beautiful moonlight and the baffles description, December 19th.
MEET NORWEGIAN STUDENTS
COAST EIGHT MILES
When we arrived at Christianity at 4 a.m. this morning, December 19th it happened that I was the only student not in bed. A group of five students from the University here at Christiana came aboard quite unexpected to us. One of them spoke English quite fluently. We had other chances I called the president of our student organization aboard and the two of us talked with the one who could speak English until 6 a.m. Then he took us up town to an early breakfast. It seemed good to set foot on land again. After breakfast we secured some of the Norwegian morning papers, one of which contained a poem about a boy and a good writetime of the expedition. Having done this we returned to the boat where the unloading of biggreg was already well under way.
By 11 a. m, we had all reached our rooms at the various hotels, all of which are splendid except that the halls are very cold. At 1 p. m, the walls are made of metal forms headquarters and went by taxicals and then by trolley about four miles up into the mountains to a station located on a tobogganing course, which, as it curves around the mountains is about eight miles long. The snow has come early here this winter and winter sports are in full blast.
I thought that the florid at Christmasand was the most beautiful sight I had ever seen up to that time but it cannot compare with this snowdeneer garden. They are far as one rides up out of the foggy valley where the sun is entirely hidden and sees the fog gradually grow thinner and thinner until finally the sky becomes clear. No wonder these people enjoy their outdoor sports so intensely.
WILL WRITE AGAIN
Well, this is a rambling account. Use it as you see fit. Will write you a little later and devote my letter almost wholly to our plans which will then have been further developed afar. We meet in the Europes. We stay here three days and then go to Stackholm where the party spends Christmas.

Starving Armenia
Open your hearts, ye clothed from head to feet,
Ye housed and whole, who listen to the cry
Of them that not yet slain and mangled lie,
Only despoiled of all that made life sweet—
Only left bare to snow, and wind, and sleet,
And rooftop to the inhospitable sky,
Give them of your abundance lest they die,
And famine make this mighty woe complete;
And lest—if truly, as your creeds aver,
A day of reckoning come—it be your lot
To hear the voice of the uprisen dead:
"We were the naked whom ye covered not,
The sick to whom ye did not minister,
And the unhonored whom we gave not bread."

RACHELLER IS COMING BYNNER HERE TOMORROW

The Original "Eben Holden Has a Lecture Full of Humorous Satire
Irving Bachelier, author and lecturer, will present his novel, "Keeping Up With Lizzie" next Tuesday, January 11, in Fraser Hall. His entertainment is one of the big numbers of the University Lecture Course and will be given in the afternoon at 4:30.
Irving Bachelore has been writing for a quarter of a century and lecturing for many year. His novels, "Eben Holden" and "Keeping up With Lizzie" are his most famous novels. "The Gentleman" and "The Turning of the Griggsbys" are scarcely less well known.
**keeping Up With Lizzie** is a reading full of gentle saint and humor, but has the deep undercurrent of present day practices and customs.
Mr. Bachelere is a Connecticut man, a member of Phi Beta Kappa and the possessor of several college degrees.
His lecture was originally announced for January 13, but January 14 was correct.

"My Bynner is one of the leaders in the group of young poets who are giving expression to the newer ideas of democracy," said Mr. Wattles today. "And his position is not the result of affectation or studied eccentricity, but rather an act of dedication." My Bynner is as free from affected numerisms as any American poet.

Kausan Correction
In the interests of accurate reporting I should like to correct a statement attributed to me in Friday's issue. I do not know the relative salaries paid at the University of Chicago and that point in that institution. The woman who is in charge of the cafeterias and Commons at the University of Chicago is the one who mentioned as a high salaried person.
The following letter has been received by the Daily Kansan;
Needs Kansan To Watch Son
Mr. C. S. Giblen, manager of the Nickerson Telephone Company at Nickerson, Kansas, writes, "Please send me the Kansan for the rest of the year, I want to find out if my nephew is sick and that he is the "Sour Owl." The Kansan is glad to report that his son Leon Giblen, Sophomore Engineer, and a member of the Beta fraternity is a very good citizen and student, and there is no likelihood of him "getting in bad."
Yours very truly.

Students at Ann Arbor are incensed over the fact that the merchants sell Class Toques to newboys, wagon-drivers and day-laborers with as much impartiality as to students.
Though there is no way in which the University can force the merchants to do otherwise, the officials feel it lowers the traditions and dignity of the University to have such concessions. They are not willing to make the antitrust against this permissive wearing of the Class Toques so strong that the merchants will have to give in to the wishes of the students.
TAKE ONE; DROP ONE
K. U. Breaks Even With Ames in Opening Basketball Series
After opening the 1916 season with a victory the Jayhawk baskettossers lost the second game in the series to Ames. Both games were played on the final whistle. In the first Kansas happened to be ahead when the final whistle sounded and the score stood 26 to 25 for the Crimson and Blue. This was no accident, as their rally too long and the final score read Ames 24, Kansas 21.
"EARL" MAKES A HIT
A rally a few minutes before the initial game ended gave Kansas a one-point lead which held until the last in spite of the excitement and fear which threatened to bring the crowd onto the floor. Substitutions to increase the lead or take it but no one on a side would be able to increase the lead or take it but the new men came too late to change the figures.
The Ames aggregation was fast and husky, to say nothing of luck with long shots, and proved to be too much for the inexperienced Kansans in the line of teamwork. Captain Johnson, one of few others of his build would make a heavy line for a gidiron squad but their size did not affect their ability to get around on the indoor court. Most of their attempts for points from the field were made from a distance but they had the advantage of being able spite of the Kansas guards. Holmes known to the crowd as Earl, warned especially good on getting the long ones from anywhere on the court.
GIBRIE COULDN'T MISS BASKET
But speaking of long ones, the Jayhawker followers should not talk too much for in the last half of the second game, Gibben, the midgest Kansas forward, got his eye on the basket and for a few minutes he hit the basket every time he got hold of the ball. Six goals were scored by him with a free throw by Cole were the only Kansas points in this half.
In both games Ames took the lead right at the start but Kansas soon caught up in the first game. Gibben's eye was trained for free throws and he netted six points off the Aggie roughness. The first half was tight, and the second half started for it when the second half started. From then on the Ames men led until the final Jayhawker rally which saved the game. The second game belonged to Ames all the way. This time it was Aldrich of Ames who got the free throws while Gibben and Cole missed all but one of eight chances and ended 11 to 8 for Ames. Miller of Ames replaced Swiney who received a twisted ankle in the first game.
APPEL AND COLE TEMPORARY CAPTAINS
Captain Holmes and Aldrich showed up well for the visitors in both battles while the Kansas stars divided the honors more. Kennedy with seven field goa's, proved to be the point getter of the first game while Nelson and Cole bested show and defense. Gillen proved the star of the second game with his hard fast playing and lucky shots. Cole, Uhrlaugh and Wilson also showed up well while Kennedy was kept under cover by the Ames guards.
Cole was appointed temporary captain for the first game and Appel, for the second game, until he was replaced by Wilson. The job then

Clothes for French and Belgians—Money for Armenia's Homeless
The shepherds led the pilgrims and they showed them a man that had bundles of cloth lying before him, and garments for the poor that stood on their shoulders. She was never the less. Then said she "This is," and she the shepherds, "to give of his labor to the poor." This is, and she the shepherds, "to give of his labor to the poor." That he waterth shall be waterth; that the winnow gave to the prophet did not cause that she had lees in her mouth.
The University of Kansas will do its share in making less the suffering of Europe's war-striken millions, Money for the purchase of food will go to the much-persecuted Armenians, whose pight is almost past belief. Warm clothes will be sent to the people of Belgium because they are barely destitute, and dependent solely on American charity for their existence.
A University War Relief Committee, under whose supervision the collection of funds and clothes will be carried on, was organized in the office of Chancellor Frank Strong Saturday morning with a member of the faculty, Mr. Paul Winters, and members of the faculty. This committee will assume direction of all charitable work emanating from the University. Its members, as named by Chancellor Strong at the organization meeting Saturday morning, are: Professor Joseph Sutherland, Dr. Olin, P. F. Walker, Foster, Humble, Hyde, MacMurray, Whitaker, Thorpe, Cady, Davis; students: L. R. Miller, Leslie Dodd, Leland Thompson, Blanche Mullen, Hugo Wodell, Ann Gittins, James L. Ewing, Jerry Stillwell, Guy Lamar, Chancellor Strong was chosen chairman.
WANT WARM CLOTHING
The collection of clothing was placed in the hands of a committee of students, composed of L. R. Miller, Blanche Mullen, Leland Thompson, Elfride Fischer, Jerry Stillwell, Stella Simmons, and William H. Wilson, all of whom were diving houses of students have been asked to give all the warm clothing they do not need. These will be collected on the afternoon of Friday, the 14th, by the women of Lawrence, who are preparing a shipment, and sent with what they have gathered. Miss Edith Snow, who is at the head of the work being done by the women of Lawrence, will be offered wherever possible. Any one who has clothes to send should telephone her at Bell 2485W.
Funds for the Armenians will be raised through an entertainment in the gymnasium, probably about the first Wednesday of the new semester. The group has been asked to arrange with the various organizations for the presentation of a worth-will program that will fill the gym to its capacity. The group has also conducted and, thus, together with the fact that the semester finals will be just finished, assumes a good attendance. The sub-compete in charge of Armenian Relief consists of Prof. H. A. Mills, chairman, Mr. G. O. Foster, W. A. Whitaker, H. P, Cady, and L. R. Miller and John Glieiser.
THOUSANDS ARE HOMELESS
Funds raised for the Armenians will be sent to the general committee ip New York and by them to Ambassadeor Morgenthan, of Constantinople, and to United States consuls and other American representatives. It was assumed that Ambassador Kunyat, that the attainment of the power of America was called to the condition of the Turkish Armenians, and an attempt at organized relief begun.
Indisputable data show that not in modern times have such horrible atrocities been perpetrated in as Turkic Sultan, Al-Mustafa the Sultan, Defenseless, the ancient Christian nation has been made the victim of a carefully planned and well organized plot of extermination. It is clear that there were many were driven from their homes, how many were forcibly converted to Islam, and how many were put to the sword. Wholesale murder, and death have been committed with impunity.
At the outbreak of the war there were in Turkey some 1,500,000 or 2,000,000 Armenians. Of these, 200,000 were forced to flee from their fledged little besides expulsion. Of the others Lord Bryce has officially reported that 800,000 were driven from their homes, scarcely one-third of whom reached their remote destinations. An official French community makes of 800,000 having lost their lives.
A quarter of a million, and probably more, have fled to the Russian Caucasus, where they are in dire need, arriving as they did in a terrible state of exhaustion and want and sickness. In one town, where a

The Daily Kaanan aims to picture the undergraduate in life, and to go further than merely printing the text in a University holds to: play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be gregarious; to have more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, and to know more clearly the students of the University.

THE SAME SPIRIT
Playing true to form, Kansas showed that same spirit of fight in the two basketball games Friday and Saturday night that has made them for several years past the most feared team in the Missouri Valley. Even though a game or two is lost at the first part of the season, that spirit of fighting every minute of the game cannot help but put the majority of the games in the "won" column.
Some of the basketball fans of the University were disappointed at the showing of the team last week, disappointed because the new team did not start off with the same rush that has characterized the excellent teams of the past. Followers of the sport who should know what they are talking about declare that another championship team is "in the making." The mistakes that the players made were for the most part mistakes caused more by an over-zealousness to do the right thing than mistakes caused by ignorance of the game.
We congratulate Ames on the splendid team that they have and for the sportsmanlike conduct of the men under the leadership of Captain Holmes. We predict for them a successful season in Missouri Valley circles.
But for Kansas, we prophesy another season in basketball wherein the names of the Jayhawkers will stand high among M. V. leaders.
ON BEING GOOD CITIZENS
Much has been said and written during the past few years about the duties of a citizen. We have been warned that apathy is fatal and that unless every citizen does his duty the nation will surely suffer. Alarmists have pointed to the downfall of Rome and have seen "breakers ahead" for the United States.
Much has been written that was exaggeration but under it all there is a great deal—the ideal of the republic in which every citizen takes an interest in the government and tries to make it better.
It lies within the power of the citizens of the United States and of the state of Kansas to do a great deal to make their country and their state better. Many of these citizens are here in the University and past experience would lead one to believe that that state of apathy, which the alarmists fear, is greater nowhere than here—the place where citizens should be striving to make the tree of idealism bear fruit.
One of the easiest ways, to show one's loyalty to country is through the ballot. To be a good citizen one must be a good voter and to be a good voter one must know what he is voting for. There are a lot of voters here in the University and it is safe to say that some of them are not good citizens.
Spring elections are coming and every voter in K, U. will have an opportunity to show that he is a good citizen.
NOT VERY MANY
The first answer the professors make to the charge of holding classes overtime is that it is unreasonable and unfair to object to a lecturer finishing his sentence when the whisle blows. Any student will grant that. The students' objection is the starting of new points in the discussion or the lengthy winding up of the sentence, of course, but how many worthwhile sentences require more than a minute to finish!
THIS IS KANSAS, THOUGH
When the smoke winds up straight from the chimney, and some unseen hand in the night paints Arabian Night dreams on the window panes, and trees and bushes sprout tiny, fairy-like pin feathers of frost, you may be sure that winter has come. Seasons no longer contain themselves within their proper limits. Nature plays tricks of fancy. She may suddenly drop a winter day in the season belonging rightfully to spring or summer, and she often drags autumn far into winter's time. We may judge the seasons only by their signs.
Winter may "spring" upon us in a night, or come like a queen with great heraldry. Her heralds come from the corners of the earth—a handful of white flakes from a misty white sky, or a chilling wind from the ice palaces of the north. Or she may give hint only by a dead silence, a complete lack of energy in the atmosphere that the world is to be shortly wrapped in a swirling mantle of snow.
YES, JUST WHY NOT?
Iowa State College owns its own cafeteria. It is called the College Inn. It is managed by a committee appointed by the chairman of the board of directors of the Y. M. C. A. This committee is composed of two faculty members, (one of whom is chairman) of the general secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and of two members from the student body. Its work has proved so successful that last week it established its second cafeteria service.
More than 500 students were served promptly at the first meal. It is opened only for dinner and supper for the present, but if the patronage continues it will serve breakfast, also. Altogether, the two cafes, the old and the new, or the first and the second, as they are called, are doing a big business, and are serving the students more economically and quickly than they have been served in the past in the private cafes.
Why not?
Quitters. That is a pretty hard word to call the unusually large number of students who do not intend to re-enter school the next semester because they are a little pinched for money or have not had the expected shower of ones and twos. But have they not the quitter's characteristics? Are they not showing a lack of gameness in sticking it out? Judging from the past, it is safe to say that of every two men who quit now, only one will ever return. Brace up. Don't be a quitter.
FIGHT!
Delinquent students at Dartmouth, it is officially announced, will not hereafter be permitted to make up their deficiencies by attendance at the summer school. In past summer sessions 75 per cent of the students had failed in one or more courses during the preceding semester. What if this idea should spread westward!

Editor of the Daily Kansan:
For a while this fall I heard a great deal of talk about "sings", but all now talk seems to have vanished entirely. For my part, the "sings" would be good for the University. To get big crowds of men women together and start them singing would be a big step taken in the way of unifying sentiment on the hill and bringing out that eiusive quality which we call "loyalty" to our Alma Mater. In some universities there are large girls made up of fifty or more devoted voices which are made up in evidence at all schools, affairs. They have school songs, class songs, "pop" songs appropriate for every occasion. One can readily see how such a glee club might be a nucleus for all class songs.
They have clubbed together forming an organization known as "The Society of Learning and Labor." They have rented a house in the city, and together in a manner suggesting the socialistic experiments of Brook Farm. The men who have money pay the running expenses of the club while those who are not are given the necessary labor necessary to the upkeep of the establishment. In this way they secure room and board. The college has been able in many cases to grunt their scholarships and so the problem of recruiting met. "The North American Student."

Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Editor of the Registrar's office has come a report designed to show the scholarship of apority and non-sorority women and fraternity and nonfraternity men. The report compiles the figures, the III grades were not included.
Some of these men are government students while others are studying independently. When the revolution occurs, they need to leave theirselves without funds. Under the peculiar American law which forbids them to work for a living, they were in an especially trying situation. The problem was that the problem is exceedingly interesting.
In fairness to all concerned, and for the sake of arriving at a dependable conclusion, why were the III grades not included? Because I have stated that let us have statistics that indicate something. The preponderance of II grades in one group and not in another group with which the first is compared, gives a misleading result and such figures lose their significance for persons whose graduation on the question of the scholarship of the groups under consideration.

According to statistics issued by the Federal Bureau of Education, at Washington, Oberlin is the most cosmopolitan college in America, and is second only to Yale University in the wide distribution of its undergraduate students. The present recipient from foreign lands, representing almost thirty different nationalities. Among these the Chinese are particularly prominent. This is quite natural, for over thirty years Oberlin has maintained a large educational enterprise in the province of Shansi, North China. There today Oberlin supports more than 800 students and a teaching staff of about fifty. It is quite natural, therefore, to find nineteen Chinese studying at Oberlin.

The first game of the season and the excitement of the crowd proved too much for Hamilton's inexperienced basket shooters. The team work in both games was ragged, and the general playing was poor. The basketball teams. But when the season gets under way the Kansans may be better able to control themselves and play as good in a real game as they do in practice.
Ames only made one substitution in the two games. This came late in the second half of the first game when Swiney, forward, received a twisted ankle and was replaced by Miller. Swiney was not able to suit up for the second game and occupied a seat beside the official scorer.
Seven men were used in the first game on the Kansas side and eight in the last. The guard combinations were changed in both games and the last one chosen seemed to be most effective against the back center. Dhelab and Wilson make a good pair at the back of the team.
The cheerleaders were on the job both nights and received a hearty welcome from the crowd in spite of the clowning. The report has it that more
The starting of the games at an early hour seems a good plan to get out a crowd. A fairly large crowd attendors begin to show their students can go to the games directly after dinner and get home in time for their regular evening's work or entertainment. The remembrance starts with a program briefly started at seven fifteen.
the date for the Washburn game was changed from Tuesday to Wednesday night because of the concert in the gym Tuesday. This gives the Hamilton five a hard game directly before they leave for the Nebraska series. The players must be at seven o'clock so that it will not conflict with the K. U. Dramatic Club's play at the Bowersock. The game will be over by 8 o'clock.
Both coaches were dissatisfied with the teamwork of their squads. The closeness of the games made it pure shock when Coach Hamilton claimed after the second game that his men were lucky to win the game. Coach Hamilton admitted after the first game that his men had no license to play in the game with such playing as they put up.
Kennedy was the point winner of the first game with his seven field goals. But in the second game Gibbon hit a streak of luck and in seven minutes had scored six field goals. His eye was entirely off the free throw basket and Kansas lost enough points this way to lose the game.
Missouri University Will Play as Usual Unless Faculties Interfere
PLAY ON TURKEY DAY
The Kansas - Missouri football game will be played on Thanksgiving Day again next year unless some action is taken by the faculty members of the university, who are in charge of the matter. No protest has been made against the date other than the petition filed by the students at the University of Missouri.
Chancellor Strong said this morning that he does not know how the students here feel about the change back to Thanksgiving day, but is inclined to believe that they did not want it and would rather be by him. However, student sentiment has not taken any definite form in the matter.

HOW TO PLAN A MAJOR
Rules Concerning Selection of Course Printed for Misunderstood
Heretofore many students have had considerable difficulty in arranging their major courses. According to Mrs. Charles Esterly, secretary to the dean of the College, this is due to a lack of understanding of the faculty rules concerning majors. Many students, especially the freshmen and sophomores, do not fully understand the requirements for majoring and the work required for majoring and that work towards that end. The following is the faculty ruling and may clear up some of the mystery concerning requirements for majoring:
THIRTY HOURS THE MINIMUM
During the last month of his sophomore year each student must file with the Dean notice of the department in which he applies for the privileges of selecting his major, giving his reason for his choice. The Dean notice of the department is approved of his application and the student will confer with the department in reference to the work of his junior and senior years. Any department is authorized to outline in the catalogue one or more departments majors consisting either formally prescribed work or suggested work, or in no case shall the prescribed work total more than 25 hours. A department may, however, in any individual case, outline a special major course if it seems best.
THIRTY HOURS THE MINIMUM
Before graduation the student must complete a major course within 20 or more than 10 fours in one department and at least less than 30 nor more than 10 in the group including the department. At least 12 hours of work in satisfaction of the department major requirements must be in courses not open to freshmen and sophomores.
Any course in the department which is a prerequisite of any part of an outlined major in that department, will be counted as a part of the total prescribed work, with the proviso, however, that beginning language courses to the extent of 10 hours need not be so counted unless the department so decides. Until then thements of a major have been completed, the student must each term before investment in classes secure the curriculum of his departmental major work by the major department. The privilege of continuing a major in any department may be withdrawn for cause at any time.
The second tryouts for the Triangle debate with Missouri, Oklahoma, and Colorado will be held Thursday at three locations: 2:30 a.m. in room 5, Green Hall.
A change of department in which a student selects his major may be made at any time during his junior year, but application for such a change must be approved by the Dean and the department to which the charge is
SECOND TRYOUT FOR
TRIANGULAR DEBATI
Probably fourteen men will be chosen from this second tryout. Later, this number will be cut down to nine for the three teams.
The sixteen men who were chosen from the preliminary tryout and the former Varsity men are eligible. Each speaker will be allowed to make a five minute talk on whatever side of the question he desires. The judge will be the faculty committee of the debating school as before.
The following men were given places at the first trout:
N. L, Anderson, J, Donaldson, W,
S. Edwards, W. Glascro, C. Hale,
J Harris, A. B. Irwin, C. B. Lyon,
M. McCullock, E. F, Price, B. Ramsey,
W. Raymond, M. H. Read, O. Reser,
A. B. Richmond, and L. Smith.
To have a Round Robin in tennis as soon as the weather permits and a tennis tournament in the spring for women, is the latest idea of the Women's Athletic Association, organized last month on the Goetz' office with two large sheets of paper with "Freshmen" and "Sphornes" printed in large letters across the top have already obtained the names of eleven women.
TO HAVE A ROUND ROBIN
AND TOURNEY IN TENNIS
Tennis has been a favored sport among the women all term. Last year all players were obliged to furnish their own rackets and balls and as they disliked keeping them in their lockers, playing was discouraged. Since the purchase, last fall, of complete equipment all the courts have been in use in good weather, during almost every period.
The entrees include seven freshmen and four sophomores, but many sophomore players have not yet signed up, although much more are invited to the suggestion which was made at the last meeting of the association.

SOME SNOW IS NEEDED
Shea Discovers a Possible Coast ing Place, but Where is Sickness?
Students, who want to const this winter will have to use the north point of the Hill says John M. Shea, supprintendent of buildings and grounds
"The point of the Hill that lies west and a little south of the McCook Field seems to me to be the heat spa make a coating Mr. McRae would be no money necessary to put this place into shape, and when the snow got deep enough to cover the long grass, that is on that part of the hill, students would go there before clear to Maine street or down behind the athletic field."
By starting from the Hill just in front of the old hospital west of Me-Cook Field and coasting southeast there would be about a 175 yard run before encountering a ravine. If, however, the starting -place -were south of this on the same course in Me-Cook Field which would be 200 yards long without encountering natural obstacles.
NO MORE CROWDING TO
GIVE REGISTRAR MONEY
The former confusion at fee paying time has been eliminated by the placement of two new windows in the hallway of Friar Hawk Hall, where fees are paid during the holidays and they are ready for use now. Formerly fees were paid in a small room in the registrar's office, which was a slow and tiresome task caused much stress. According to the Foster his assistants will pow be able to work faster, making it easier on both the students and people in the office. There are also many boxes under the windows large enough to accommodate packages as well as letters.
The initial meeting of the night class in Shakespeare under the instruction of Prof. C. G. Dunlap was held Wednesday night at the Manual Training High School and twelve persons, including school teachers and townpeople, were present to take advantage of the new course. The tragedy of Hamlet first work taken up for study. Professor Dunnlap paid it, unlike most courses this will not be a lecture course. The class will meet every Wednesday night at the Manual Training High School for a period of two hours.

ATTEND CONFERENCE
E. W. Murray Hears College Athletics Discussed by National Association
Professor E. W. Murray spent a part of the holidays attending the 10th annual meeting of the National Collegiate Association in New York City. This association is composed of about one hundred schools, Cornell being the only large school that has not joined its ranks, and had an enrollment of about three hundred members at this meeting.
The general purpose of this conference is to instruct the public on questions pertaining to athletics. They have no power in making decisions, are considered authority and are used in the settlement of disputes that may arise. Prominent speakers were: Dean Briggs of Harvard, the president of the association, and ex-president of the spoke on common athletic questions.
At this meeting the conference attempted to define the much disputed question of "what is an amateur" but no conclusion was reached.
The departure in the matter of appointing the football rules committee is the most important work of the convention, but the committee was previously appointed by the schools is to be handled in the future by the National Collegiate Association. The conferences also appointed a committee which shall look after the administration of the schools regarding forfeited games, eligibility of players, etc.
"There is no doubt that this conference will become the governing body of Collegiate athletes," said Mur. Murapt "its power growing, its influence will hold bequeath, they are made by an impartial, unprovided body."
Professors A. T. Walker and E. W. Murray also attended a joint meeting of the American Philological and Archaeological Association at Princeton, New Jersey, December 27-28.
SAYRE TELLS 'EM HOW
Dean of Pharmies Told What He Know about Good Housekeeping
"Good Housekeeping" was the topic discussed before the Home Economics Club by Dean L. E. Sayre of the School of Pharmacy last week. He drew largely from his own experiences in speaking on the building, heating, plumbing, furnishing, and care of the house.
"Never expect the contractor, plumber, or any other service man to grasp and produce your ideas for you in the matter of building a house—decide what you want and then insist on having your plan carried out."
Daney Sayte, toold of his experimental work on coffee in regard to its poison content and spoke of its use in the diet of the family. In close呼呼, he maintained that a family has to reserve a kit of simple medical remedies for emergency use.
YOU CAN'T DODGE GYM
WORK NEXT SEMESTER
"And finally, to be good housekeepers, be good shopkins. That is, beware of the bargain counter when there are no bargains. My wife is the only member of the family to be trusted at the bargain counter."
"All students will have to take their gym at least once a week next semester whether they work or not, is the way he expressed his concern. It is a lot of students, both sophomores and freshmen, who need the exercise, but are finding various means of avoiding it, and we are going to see that they got it in the gym."
The countless students who toil and sweat either in fact or in imagination in order to avoid attending their gym classes will have to ask their exercise next semester, according to H. A. Lovense, instructor in gym.
Mr. Lorenz also complains that there is a large number of lockers checked out that are not being used. These lockers are needed by other students who would use them and Mr. Lorenz requests that all men having lockers that they do not intend to use, see him and turn them in.
May Have Exchange Next Term
The book exchange at the University bids fair to be a reality in the near future. In fact, the Student Council committee that it will be running at the beginning of the next semester. There is also a committee working with the men's committee and they have been spending considerable time making plans for the management of the exchange. The location of the store has not been made but will be announced later.
CHANCELLOR MEETS FACULTY
AND STUDENTS AT ROSEDALE
Chancellor Frank Strong, while in Rosedale Wednesday visiting the Medical School, was impressed deeply by the teamwork and advancement made by the School.
"We had a meeting of the Council of the School of Medicine at 1:20 p.m. and a meeting of the faculty at 2:30 p.m. Both meetings were well attended and many interesting discussions concerning problems of the Medical School were heard," said Chancellor Strong this morning.
This is a very big year for the Medical School and much progress is in evidence, according to the Chancellor. The new dispensary building just finished is a fine one and greatly lifts the hopes of our senior over their previous visits per month while the old one would only accommodate about nine hundred.
Recent work on the grounds by the landscape artist has made the campus much more attractive, and makes it virtually fine site for such an institution.
FIGHT CIGARETTE EVIL
Boys of State Will Compete
for $100 Prize This
Year
An anti-cigarette contest among the boy organizations of the state with a prize of $100 for the group which organized the event against the civil has been arranged by Prof. Wm. A. McKeever, head of the department of child welfare of the University Extension Division. A second prize of $50 will be awarded.
Mr. John A. Edwards of Eureka has put up the money for the prizes. Mr. Edwards was formerly a member of the legislature and is the author of the present radical anti-cigarette law, a law which is being well enforced in parts of the state, accusations that are not to be taken as statement, and easily selected in other parts.
The plan of the contest is that the boys shall do all the work of the campaign, being merely supervised by directors.
The sympathies of Governor Capper and Attorney-General Brewster have been enlisted in the movement and the attorney-general has recently sent a letter to the governor asking for a more careful enforcement of the anti-cigarette law.
Professor McKeever will soon have ready a definite plan of organization and action for the boy clubs and, as head of the department of child welfare, will supervise the contest. The time and the award is not set, but it will probably be a year or more before the contest closes.
Early last fall, something like 700 circularers were sent out to school superintendents, outlining the proposed campaign and stating that a prize would probably be offered, but at that time the money for it was not in sight. As a result of the circumstances, G. Hall of Altamont has a troop of Boy Scouts organized and an aggressive campaign well under way.
The State Federation of Women's Clubs has taken a stand in favor of the matter and the W. C. T. U. is at work in its behalf.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 11, 1916.
An attack on the nature of the rhetoric work that is being assigned to freshmen appeared in the communication columns of the Daily Kansan Friday afternoon. The writer of it stated that none of the seniors in one fraternity house could explain what was meant by an assignment given to one of their friends in their assignment course a theme on "intertelling hostility." The writer of communication concluded by venturing the opinion that the average senior in the University couldn't write a satisfactory essay on the subject.
ANNOUNCES HIS POLICY
Following is the reply by the instructor to the assignment Element of the Daily Journal.
I think that if some of those fraternity men whose intellectual horizon is bounded by the cabaret show and Harold Bell Wright would "quit school," the University would be better off.
ANNOCURIES FOR I am an educator, instructor who assigns a theme on "Intellectual Curiosity" and was hence criticized by "Indignant" in your columns. I say plainly that the writer of the letter was correct when he said that "just such assignments shall be more important than what is more, just such assignments shall be made every day—at least in my classes—and as long as I have the authority to make assignments. The motto in my freshman courses is: To students I must enable you to enable the student to express this curiosity in correct English."
"LEARN TO THINK BY THINKING"
I am determined to do all in my power to awaken the young men and women with whom I come in contact to an earnest and serious attitude toward life and its arts and problems. We learn to do by doing—to think we blunder at first. So we can try to think thinking, if it is difficult at last. We can never get anywhere if we say "this subject is too deep for us" and if we go to our "senior fraternity adviser" for help.
OFFERS HIS EVIDENCE
Yours truly,
PERCY B. SHOSTAC.
I am glad to say, however, that this question of "Intellectual Curiosity" which caused so much intellectual perplexity in our students of certain fraternity, was answered most satisfactorily by most of the freshmen. In fact twelve of the themes were grades I or 1+, and only a handful entirely left to grasp by them.
For the benefit of these intellectually curious seniors I suggest that you print the theme *tie onesie*, just as usual, and then print the best. I received, but there are many others of almost equal merit and I will be glad to show the whole set of themes for the who is interested in printing the theme directly underneath this letter.
Here is the theme, written by Helen,
McKinney, freshman College, from
the Bronx.
INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY
Certain instincts and tendencies are characteristic of every human mind. Curiosity is a very common quality, but when it seems to be an instinct it seems to me. However, the distinctions are necessarily fine. We are not so much interested in the natural inquisitiveness which every one has regarding the trivial and ordinary things of life, but rather in intellectual curiosity. It is mount wike-wake interest and intensity in seeking after truth.
Children take many things on faith. Certain things are told them by their parents as facts. They believe these things implicitly for some time. Perception is often unwittingly in error. Gradually the children develop a desire for investigation on their own responsibility. Sometimes they are astonished to arrive at conclusions varying materially from reality. This natural curiosity should be fostered and cultivated in children. It is a pertinent sign that the youthful mind is developing properly. Too often parents are ignorant of this fact, so children question the child's questioning to an utterly愚固 cause—stupidity.
During the years a child is in the
nigh school, he puts much confidence in books. Because his history or rhetoric says such a thing, undoubtedly it is so. If a teacher ventures a different idea or opinion, the pupil has to agree. The student says so-and-so." By the end of the high school course, the pupils have formed opinions and arrived at conclusions which to them are infallible. Introspection, retrospection, and actual investigation are merely words used for no concrete action on their part.
Most people who enter the universities of the country, are compelled to leave their homes in order to have this advantage. College life is quite different from any other form of work are opened up, new acquaintances formed, and a different type of instruction is given to them. This changed environment naturally effects the student's life, especially his mental life. As he grows older, his firmly grounded opinions are up-rooted and his mind is in chaos.
And this is as it should be. After the debris of former years is cleared away, the new structure will rise from the ruins. With careful leading and maintenance, it can be stabilization, the student emerges from the confusion with a new set of ideas, firmer principles, and a capability unknown. These first years of college life should be given to tearing down, disputing, affirming, and denying, but not guessing at things we really ought to know, but at those which we might but do not know. We should not accept every statement which we read or hear. Let us be a little skeptical until we do know. If doubling the number of students so doing we finally learn the truth, which after all is the end in view.

Lanky Center Selected Last Night to Head Basketball Five
GOLE ELECTED CAPTAIN
At the regular basketball practice last night, Lawrence Cole, center, was elected captain of the squad for the season which has already begun. The vote was almost unanimous for the big Jawahyer center. The elec- tion had been held tonight, but the squad decided last night to hold it a day early.
PETER BECKER
CAPT. LAWRENCE COLE
Cole won his "K" on Hamilton's 1914 squad but did not get a letter last year. The opening of this season saw "Slats" playing center and he has shown up good in the practices and games this far. His playing has made the center position the only one on the team that is definitely not unless some "wonder" appears he will get into every game this season. That is, of course, if the mumps do not bother him as was the case last year.
ELIGIBLE NEXT YEAR ALSO "Slats" has a very aggressive style of play and his ability to "get up in the air" makes him inimitable. He centers in the Valley that are taller than Cole and very seldom has one been found that can out-jump him. If the first appearance of the Jayhawk quintet is to be taken as a representative showcasing cole will be the mainstay of the team.
Cole is a senior engineer and a resident of Lawrence. He is a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity. He did not participate in the spring 2015 season, he will have another year of eligibility after this one if he desires to return for the basketball season.
The basketball squad will journey to Haskell tonight at 7:30 for practice with the Indians. On account of the concert in the stadium, a different place to practice and a practice game with the Braves was arranged. The scrimmage with the Indians put Hamilton's singles together tomorrow night and also give them a taste of a foreign court before going to Lineola Friday.
SCRIMMAGE HASKELL TONIGHT
Ruth Lichen, a graduate of last year and from Leavenworth was a guest at the Sigma Kappa house over Saturday and Sunday.

"The cast is doing splendidly," said Professor MacMurray this morning, "and I have never worked with a more loyal, more aloof, more satisfactory cast I have ever conched. Not a line is carelessly, even during rehearsals; and every person in the cast has made a real study of the character he wanted."
Viola Campbell, Alice Coors.

Special Senate Meeting to Consider Dance Rules, if Request is Made
A special meeting of the University Senate will consider changes recommended in the dance rule by students, provided some member of the Senate requests a special session, according to a statement given out by Chancellor Frank Strong the day before. The request is not made the matter will hang fire until the next regular meeting of the Senate, about three weeks from now.
11 the Senate meets it will consider request will probably come from Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, in whose hands are the social affairs of men; 12 the Senate Brown is ill with the grip, and could not be reached this morning.
The Chancellor expressed himself perfectly willing to issue a call, but said that he would follow the usual custom of waiting until someone called.
if the senate meets it will consider the two rules recommended. The one, passed by a meeting of men students representing thirty organizations, also regulates registration be altered so that Friday night dances end at one, Saturday night at 12, and forms at 2 o'clock. A similar meeting of women recommended that all dances end at one reception, save those Saturday night.
The rule now in force, to which students voiced such strong objection, ends all dances except the big formation. The dancers are permitted to last until 2.
Objections assumed a concrete form in the shape of resolutions when Mrs. Brown called meetings of the men and women to consider the formation of a social committee to advise with her. Students objected to the method in which the rule was passed by the Senate, in disregard of the facts, wishes, rather than the fact that they would be deprived of an hour's dancing.
ATTEMPT TO INSTALL
COURSE ABOUT K. U
Students of the University of Kansas will be given an opportunity to learn something of their Alma Mater, if the University Senate is able to back up its recommendations to the Chancellor that such a course will be taught not only the history, ideals, purposes, and growth of his own University, but also the general aspects of American university life in general. At present, the matter has been carried no further than a Senate recommendation, owing to the crowded conditions on campus offered, both the Senate and the Senate hope to have the course installed next year.
QUIZZES AFFECT THE GRAD STUDENTS, ALSO
The Graduate Club's slim attendance recently has caused some comment as to whether a graduate student takes as much interest in activities on the Hill as the undergraduate.
Dean F. W. Blackmar, when questioned on the subject of the graduate student, merely said, "Oh dear me! You can't start anything before quizzes, and graduate students feel the strain and the heavy pressure in your Next semester, when things settle down again, we are going to reorganize our Graduate Club, and start things on a firmer basis.
Avis Middleton, a graduate of last year, has been visiting friends in Lawrence the past week. Miss Middleton is on her way to Collinsville, Oklahoma, where she will fill a vacancy in the English department of the Collinsville High School at the beginning of the new term.
Dean F. W. Blackmar will deliver the second number of a course of six lectures before the teachers of the Kansas City schools Saturday morning on "Social Evolution", at the New Central High School.

TALKS ON OCCUPATIONS
FOR COLLEGE WOMEN
Miss Frances Cummings, manager of the Intercable Bureau of Occupations in New York, will speak to the women of the University in Philadelphia at 4:30. Miss Cummings will talk on "Opportunities for College Trained Women" and will tell of the actual placements of the Bureau, as well as the specific problems facing women in the workplace, the economic, and social fields.
Miss Cummings comes to the University through the efforts of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae, of which Miss Isisce Winters, junior department is president, and Mrs. Harry V. Palmbla, secretary.
"Every girl," said Miss Winston, "should make an effort to be present Monday afternoon to hear what Miss Cummings to to teach me lessons other than teaching that are open to the college trained woman."
OSCAR SEAGLE TO SING
Great Voice Teacher Will Give Song-Recital Tonight
Sixteen dollars an hour for training one's voice in the art of singing may sound fabulous, but that is what musical instruction under Oscar Seagle is worth while he is on his tours. Mr. Seagle will give the next number of the University Concert Course on January 11.

SEATS AT THE CONCERT TONIGHT
The gymnasium has seats arranged for basketball games which are slightly different from the usual seating at the concert course. The five end seats if each row have been transferred to the raised seats on the side, which lie in a horizontal stage. It is practicable to remove these seats before the end of the basketball season, so patrons of the concerts are asked to accept the few changes rendered necessary with the apologies of the management for the inconvenience.

MORE GYM CLASSES
AND WORK—FOR WOMEN
A meeting was held among the members of the women's department of physicaI training, Monday morning. "No, we didn't do a thing like that," Gladys Elliott, "just planned loads and heaps of hard work for ourselves—and the gym classes. Things are going to be much more interesting in the general class work this semester, and we are even more likely new classes for the girls. No, I can't tell you about them just yet."

L. Thompson, President of Student Council, for Military Training
"Compulsory military training as a substitute for the present system of required gymnasium work for freshmen and sophomores would be one of the more important schools," University of Kansas for many years," said President Leland Thompson of the Men's Student Council this morning in regard to the suggestions for military training made in the columns of the Daily Kansan a few days ago.
"Such training could not only take the place of the regular gymnasium classes by offering work not dissimilar and of the out-of-door variety, but there are many other advantages not possessed by the regulation gymnasium training in calisthenics and a few athletic games.
MANY SCHOOLS HAVE IT
MANY SCHOOLS HAVE IT "I visited practically all the larger schools in the last summer, and I have a large majority of the system of compulsory military training was used as a substitute for the required gymnasium work. The faculty and students in all of these schools were almost unanimous in their approval of the system, finding on the whole that the athletic training was better for the students, and the conditions of drill and practice were much more uniform. The feeling of democracy seemed prevalent among the students and every man had a large circle of acquaintances.
"This spirit of democracy was explained by the fact that military training does not discriminate between combatants and non-combatants man and the non-fraternity man. Every man is dressed in the same uniform, and he is taught the essentials of good military training, including the use of moral side along with the physical.
"While the question of helping along the growing national sentiment in favor of preparedness is one that is not to be scoffed at, and should be given due weight in the matter, it is important to remember that our ones having direct vital interest to the present generation. If military training will take the place of the regular gymnasium work without losing any of it's better qualities, and at the same time keeping an eye on itscipline, a sentiment in favor of respect for superior authority, and a spirit of pulling together on the part of the student cadets, as experience has shown it will do, in other large groups of students, that we are missing a good part of our school life by not having the advantages of such training."
BENEFITS INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS
Thompson is in favor of a strong agitation towards compulsory military training, and he intends to bring before the next meeting of the Men's Board. He advises that the student sentiment in the matter, Whether by special election or by means of petitions circulated to find out the student sentiment he was not able to say: "I am in favor of establishing such training here in the Army." I will heartily support any suggestion to realize that end," concluded Thompson. "We want the sentiment of the student body, and I feel safe in speaking for the Council in saying that men students are in favor of such treatment, which counsel will use whatever influence it can command to bring about this end."
WANTS STUDENT OPINION
The gymnasium classes are being quizzed this week. "We have planned to quiz the freshmen classes Monday and the sophomore classes on Tuesday," said Miss Glady Elliot, yesterday. "The freshmen are to be quizzed in English while the sophomore classes will show what they have learned in Swedish work; throwing Indian clubs, marching, and aesthetic dancing."

WANTED—AN IMAGINATION
TUESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1916
Men are very odd creatures; one half censure what they practice, the other half practice; they both censure what they practice — Poor Richard's Almanche.
If on your way home tonight you learned that in the house you were passing a little child was starving to death and a woman had neither shoes nor sockskings to protect her from the cold, you would not continue on your way until you had made sure that help would be there immediately. Or even if you knew that in Jefferson county a family of fatherless children were destitute and naked you would place no limit upon your charity. But because that case is transferred to Europe you ignore it, even though it is multiplied by hundreds of thousands.
There, where all the men have gone forth to slay, and women and children are left defenseless beside cold hearths, each day sees scenes enacted more heart rending than we can comprehend. In Poland thousands of women, half clad, are trying to sustain life by tiny fires build in the snow, over which they cook a few potatoes. Over 200,000 Polish children, forever nameless, are without homes, dependent upon charity. And in the Russian Caucasus a quarter of a million people are praying that death will come quickly for they are without food or shelter. The innocent are paying the heaviest toll to the War-God.
Here, in peace and plenty, we are indifferent, careless or unconscious to the cries for help. We waste over and over again the price of a life. What we spend for an hour's pleasure would buy food enough to last for days for a starving woman or little child.
The University of Kansas is trying to collect its mite. A carload of warm clothes will go out from Lawrence this week, and every student is asked to give his share—a little bit to each of us, perhaps a life to someone over there. Later, when the finals are past, an entertainment will be given in the gymnasium, the funds of which will go to help purchase life for a nation which stands on the brink of the Valley of Death.
Can't we appreciate the famine, the misery and suffering enough to back the attempt of the University to do its share toward making things a little better? Haven't we enough imagination to picture the conditions, to realize the imperative demand for help from this, the most able nation to help?
THEY SAY ITS COMING
At last there seems a possibility that we shall have a book exchange next semester. The Student Council committee has promised that it will be in working order when the semester begins, so that is some encouragement to many who thought that a book exchange would never really materialize.
However small the beginning has to be, it is a splendid thing, for it will be a foundation upon which to work in the future. There is absolutely no reason why Kansas should not have a book exchange. It has been proved successful for years in Harvard and the University of California and many other large colleges and universities.
Who knows, perhaps from the small beginning of a book exchange we may yet develop a cooperative store at the University of Kansas!
A CENSURE OF BEST
CENSURE OF BEST SELLER "Speeding up the Author" by Florence Finch Kelly, an old K. U. graduate, which appears in the January Bookman, is a most refreshing and readable criticism. It is a censure of the hasty way in which modern writers of Best Sellers grind out their books and of the cheerfulness with which even our best authors of today merrily butcher and slash the English language, that they may satisfy a pressing publisher. For the student who is interested in writing, the article contains much that is helpful. For the student who reads for amusement alone, Mrs. Kelly's view of the author busily scribbling that he may "collect a herd of automobiles, and subjugate a yacht," will be very entertaining and readable. she writes from the inside, and the secrets she tells on the authors of today, Gene Stratton-Porter, Winston Churchill and many of their ilk, are delightful not to say enlightenment. It's in Spooner Library, in the January Bookman, in the magazine racks at the left of the entrance door.
AND THEY MAY BE RIGHT
In a recent article in the Saturday Evening Post, Will Irwin, a leading journalist of the United States and a war correspondent who returned from the battle fields of Europe only a few months ago, gives the views of a "citizen of the world" on what preparation for war means and the dangers that it involves. As Mr. Irwin sees it the United States should prepare, but he believes, and with probable correctness, that much of the hue and cry that has been raised during the last few months for the increase in size and strength in both the army and navy, has been caused by the firms who are at present making munitions for the Allies in the great war. Mr. Irwin is careful to say that these men probably believe that the money that they are spending for publicity urging greater readiness for war is for the good of the country, and that they have fooled themselves into believing that we should arm and arm quickly.
To a cynic it might appear, that men in the position of the munitions manufacturers would naturally have little trouble in fooling themselves.
NEEDED—A TUTOR
It's a shame that we didn't know that they were going to refund the $5 matriculation fee. We might all have arranged to be special Fine Arts students.
A novel add appears in the Columbia "Spectator." It may be a suggestion for those who are in like circumstances at this time of the year: LOGIC TUTOR WANTED—A PATIENT, slow-speaking, flegmatic philosopher, who knows Jevons backwards, and who can sympathetically inject his definite practical knowledge into an eager mind, too busy to puzzle out the subject alone. Professors not satisfactory. Student will meet tutor at University Tuesday and Fridays between 5:30-7 p. m. State in own handwriting, age, sex, weight and terms. D., Spectator Office.
And now on top of all his other troubles Henry Ford must learn that the K. U. Debating Society has decided that his peace expedition is $v$ total failure.
Should we believe our eyes when we read "Sphinx to Dance?"
Why if Ann Arbor objects to hood carrier wearing Class Toques don't they adopt something like the freshman caps?
At the other end of a business man's life, when he begins to grow old, and to relinquish one by one the cares and responsibilities of his business, then the tastes and habits formed in his youth by his college course in the Liberal Arts, provided he wants to succeed, he is invested in become invaluable. They sweeten his declining years, and enable him to grow old along with Rabbi Ben Ezra, gracefully and serenely. William J. Serrill.

PROFESSIONALS
CAMPUS OPINION
communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but not written or published by a third party, if any.
College men should not think of becoming simply professionals, but rather of becoming professional men. The longer the preparation the better the final result, in human life as in nature. If a man is going to college, his management of an athletic or of some other activity is excellent preparation for business. But it should be remembered that the teacher is more than the subjects he teaches, the preacher more than the sermon; the writer more than the stories he writes, the business man more than his business. So the student should do all in his power to secure a liberal education for the main part of his profession as well as to prepare for his strictly professional work, and that is what he must accomplish in curriculum activities be of value. Man first; professional afterwards—Columbia Spectator.
Exasperated.
Editor Daily Kansan:
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
While the Bible tells us that "it is more blessed to give than to receive"
it does not tell us that this principle applies only to man. Some women,
however, seem to be laboring under the impression that they are not included in the number of men so blessed, at least they never give. So we had the pleasure of meeting three or four women walking abreast along one of the sidewalks on the hill? If so did one or two of the number fall back so that you might have a little room to pass or did they stick to their formation and force you to step off into the mud or snow to thank you will have if you were faithful you will have off into the mud and slush you went. Of course it is a fine thing for the men of the University to treat the women with every consideration and be gentlemen always. No one will gainssay that but on the other hand should the men do it all? Why not a little consideration on the part of women? There would not necessary them to step off the sidewalk but if they would give up their four abreast formation when they meet people going in the opposite direction they would make it possible for all to use the sidewalks.
If the senior who was commissioned to help freshmen in their rhetoric has been thus four years of K. U. "society" it is little wonder he lacks ability to see anything in the expression "intellectual curiosity."
To the casual reader of the Kansas there seems to be a logical connection between the communication signed "Indignant" and some of the controversies set forth in the news section. It is amusing that the group of seniors should be unable to explain or write anything about "intellectual curiosity" when it appears, from the time and prominence given the subject, that the main intent and purpose of the University of Kansas is provide "social life" for a class of students who have time and money to waste.
This is not meant to condemn dancing generally. A wholesome social life is necessary, of course, for students as well as for anyone else. But why—to ask a question asked often before—give the people of Kansas to the task of determining what whether dances close at twelve, one, or two o'clock, when anyone with common sense knows that people as hard working as students are supposed to be able to take better care of themselves than to keep such hours, even if only for two or three nights

Arthur "Shorty" Hoffman, a senior law from Enterprise, entertained his two younger brothers, John and Ray, at the Kappa Sigma house last Friday and Saturday. "Shorty" took his two brothers to Kansas City Sunday to show them the wonders of the big town.
A professor in a ten-thirty freshman German class Monday recited to his class at length concerning the legendary history of a fraternity "house-polony" that filled how the Greek brothers had pled all pages of the events of the faithful "beast" the night preceding the chem quiz and how, alas, in the hour of trial the "brute" band. The department had the day before received a tattoo for test tubes these same tubes were not of the same weight as those preceding. The class held over five minutes.
The advocates of "stop on the tool must take off their hats to C. A. Dykstra on his promptness in obeying the rules of class dismissal. So diligently is this member of the faculty striving to live up to the requirements, that in his political science class Monday the whistle caught him midway in the pronunciation of legislature. Thereon he hung. The class rose and passer out.
Louis B. Gloyne, senior college medic from Kansas City, Kansas, is engaged in shipping live stock as a side line for bringing in extra money. To this side line Louis has added another side line. In and about the stock yards many dogs homeless dogs-float. The K.U. medical school is not of interest about the color nor the lineage of its dog subjects. Dogs are dogs so善良 they are possessed of abundant meat to render good reflex action. Over Saturday and Sunday Louis picked up three "dorgs" and billed them to the K. U. Medical School.

The students arrived at the prison late in the afternoon and Warden and Mrs. Codding entertained the young women and the chaperners in their home over night, but the children and the probationer—who was fat and ill—their parents were given beds in one of the prison dormitories by trusties. The experience of sleeping in a prison ward behind barricade with and under the same student real criminals, made every student just a nervous as he prepared to retire.
attending the Topper. So the two Washburnites, learning from servants that the K. U. class was at the prison, conceived an idea.
John G. Madden, editor of the Linn County Republic, who in the good old days was editor of the Daily Kansan, still keeps his weather eye on the ups and downs of students on Mount Oread. Last week, taking his Ford in hand, he typed him off a yarn, a thrilling yarn of the days which used to be—and here it is, as Johnni wrote it:
Along in the middle of the night my friend was awakened from his dreams of murders and bank robberies by a slight noise. Trying to shake off the creepy feeling along his neck, he started to over watch when a harsh out of the darkness hissed, "Keep quiet!" He obeyed instructions literally and without argument. As his eyes became accustomed to meager light he began talking in low, but not inadvertible nouns about the chances for escape.
Every term, a K. U. class in sociology visits the state prison to gain some practical knowledge of the problems of such an institution. Several years ago a young man who was one of my best friends made the trip.
According to the story as it leaked out to Lawrence some weeks later, Warden Coddling's son was a student at Washburn College that winter and he and a chum arrived home for a visit this same night. Now Washburn is a very excellent college situated in Topeka, but it doesn't happen to have the large attendance or some of the other advantages enjoyed by the institution at Lawrence. U. students are often accused of reminding their Washburn students of these facts, all which is properly resented by those attending the Topeka school.

THREATS OF DEATH
From their conversation my friend gathered that they were desperate life-terners, who in some way had slipped past the guards, and only needed to file in the windows of that particular bedroom to gain their freedom. While one remained at the window rasping with his file, the other walked from bed to bed brandishing a weapon in hand while he entered threats of death and eternal dammation to anyone who uttered the least cry.
PROFESSOR FOR PEACE AT ANY PRICE The students awoke, one by one, and each was quickly, if not gently,
informed of the situation. Some prayed silently. Others rolled their eyes from side to side looking in vain for an avenue of escape. Thoughts of home, mother and the happy pre-college days occupied the attention of not a few. But the portly professor peacefully snored.
After five or ten minutes this dignitary floored, over, awakened, and raised himself up in bed only to feel his footing and clammy pressing his forehead.
"Wh-What's this?" he stammered. "Dron!" was the terse reply.
The professor dropped. The re sounding thud caused by his weight on the foot is one of the vivid memories of that night to those who were present.
AHA! A CLUE
A laugh, a flood of light as an electric switch was turned, and the vision of two young men in the doorway, one with a small nail file, the other with a nicked safety razor, were the next developments. The two men disappeared immediately, but not every occupant of the room saw that a Washburn sweater. For the indignant instructor and his K. U. students, nothing remained to be done but swear each other to secrecy.
The next morning at breakfast the unsuspecting Warden solemnly introduced two smiling Washburn men to a dozen or more glowering students from Lawrence, and also to a purpureafaced K. U, professor of sociology.

Long Way to Get Beat
Week's Attractions Vary From Lizzie to Strauss and Iphigenia
Mr. and Mrs. O, P. Portunity take this means of announcing that they will appear in a sextuple bill before the close of business during the week of January 10 to 14.
The program that they have arranged is versatility to carry the nth degree. Aufforderung by Straus, a practical demonstration of the value of telepathy and mental suggestion, the interpretation of *Europedes* "Iphigenia in Tartarus" and popular indoor sport and old Bill Bailen with his ukelele.
The first number on the program—and one of the best—is an imported act, to be put on by Irving Bachelier, a novelist and lecturer of no little note. He reads selections from his novels. Keeping up with modern art of modern life and customs. That is billed for 4:30 this afternoon.
A NOTED BARITONE
The next number on the program, ladies and gentlemen, is also an imported act, by Oscar Seagull of New York City, the same singer as the baritone artist. He is the gentleman who gives us the aforementioned Heinische Aufordierung by Straus. His repertoire besides the German ones.
We also have with us this week a rather unusual guest, Wittner Bynner, poet and dramatist, whom Prof. Willard Wattles, whose poetry is well known in the region,acterizes as one of the leaders of the young poets. He will sometime during his visit with his friend give his interpretation of *Euripedes* "Iphigenia in Taurus," a subject about which he speaks as one having authority.
A DOUBLE BILL
The bill Wednesday night is one of the best of the week. Not only is it a double bill, but it is given to show off the home talent. The curtain raiser provides for an informal reception to the Ichabods from Topela on the polished floor of Robinson Gymnasium, by Coach Hamilton's proteges.
The second part of the evening's performance will be seen at the Bowersock Theatre, when the K. U. Drake plays "A Christmas Carol." The Witching Hour" is the play to be given, wherein mental telepathy, love, murder, and hypnotism are mixed up and unravelled at the end in a series of eerily exponents of the divine Sarah.
As to Bill Bailey and his ukulele, that feature comes Friday night when the Hawaiian orchestra of sixteen pieces will perform under the auspices of the University Y. M. C. A. They will feature special numbers on the ukulele and the Steele guitar, which will be performed by the mid-western students to become better acquainted with these popular instruments.
And last—and shall we say least?—the whole week will offer excellent chances in between acts of the big sex-tuple bill, to tuck away a little knowledge that may come in handy in a couple of weeks.
There is quite a bit of competition for places on the squar this year in most events but in the pole vault the competition thus far has been slight. On account of the big mat not being received, the vaulters have not had a chance at the bar yet. However, the men are not out for this place as they are for the other event. Camp-ing is their victory valuation of last season is expected to go to Rosedale the second semester to complete his medical course and if he does Hamilton will have to hunt around for a new man for the job.
SPORT PICKUPS
With a large squad out for track each afternoon the gym after four o'clock takes on the appearance of a regular track field. Some twenty runners are fighting for places on the running track upstairs while on the basketball floor the sprinters, jumpers and hurdlers are getting in shape.
The distance men have been making some good time on the track of late and are get'ing in condition fast. Grady, Groene and Stateler are working on the two mile and have brought their time to a slow pace. Their time mile has been slow so far, but Spruill and Herritt are working into shape for this.
Dick Rutherford, Cornhusker captain, has been the cause of a lot of trouble between Stichm and the Nebraska authorities. Rutherford was offered a job at Indiana as assistant to Stichm with a salary of $2,000. The Nebraska athletic board then hired him as an assistant of assistant to Stewart at Nebraska at $2,500. Rutherford will assist in all sports as well as football. He is well qualified because of his vast experience in all lines of sport life.
The athletic board of the University of Nebraska made a good chance in the selection of a football mentor and a co-ordinator, but the accepted a three year contract at Indiana University. Dr. Stewart, the new mentor, has had decided success of late with the Oregon Aggies and has brought himself no little fame in sport circles. His teams also looked for big games and his trip of two games to the Michigan Aggies brought with it a new appreciation of the Oregon Aggies. The Westerners' 6 to 0 victory was also a boost for Stewart.
The distance men are plentiful but none of them are sure of their jobs. There will be a good chance for a new job, but they are especially some relay material.
WON'T PROSECUTE DOTY
Rosedale Accountant Returns $5,500 Charged to Him on State Books
Claude A. Doty, formerly superintendent of the Bell Memorial Hospital at Rosdeale, will not be prosecuted by the State for fraud and property for his personal use.
Duty turned over to the state today $5,500, practically all in cash, but part of it consists of books, furniture and surgical instruments, to make good a shortage charged against him by the state.
A statement given out by the state board of administration in Topeka today asserted that there was no proof of deliberate wrongdoing on the part of Doty. He bought merchandise for his personal use on the credit of state funds, and Book ordered for his personal library were found in the hospital library, and books ordered for the state were found in Doty's library. The fact that Doty was using state funds in buying articles for personal use was discovered last spring when he bought a set of motor cars from a state-run shop. The state does not own any motor cars and does not pay bills for the repairs.
This started an investigation, which disclosed that the state had paid $1 a box for strawberries in January, and other bills for luxuries which never had been shown in any of the reports. The account of Doty revealed that about $5,500 worth of personal bills had been charged to the state, Doty reimbursed the state 'for all he had used and the case was closed today. Doty left the hospital in May, 1915, and returned home where mit his being graduated from the Kansas Medical School. His diploma, however, was held up.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JAN UARY 12, 1916.
SEES HOPE FOR MUSIC
Oscar Seagle Finds Encouragement in Present Tendencies
"I find western college audiences as a whole very much more appreciative of classical music than similar eastern audiences," said Oscar Sengle, who sang here last night, this morning. "In Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri I find my best audiences, and it is a pleasure to sing for them."
"In the east and the south the people at large depend on hearing the good music in the larger cities only, and the people as a whole consequently have not been educated to as high music as you middle western folks.
"I wish to commend the work of the K. U. department of music especially in regard to the matter of community involvement that we have started this year. If we are to become a nation appreciative of good music it is through just such things as this that this end will be accomplished and good work and it will bear good fruit.
"The advances made in the field of talking machines is also an element that should help to raise the standard for this kind of equipment panies are coming more and more towards the production of the classical, but the commercial aspect has assumed to large proportions for the development to be very much suppressed.
Mr. Seagle gave the third number of the University concert course in Robinson Gymnasium last night. He was entertained at the University Club.
SEAGLE TELLS STORIES —
WOULDN'T TALK SHO
Immediately after the concert Mr. Seagle and his accompanist, Mr. Frank Bibbs, went to the University Club, where they met a gathering of students who were owing to the severe weather, was somewhat smaller than is usual on such occasions. Those who came, however, were the more fortunate; and many students encountered individuals a better chance to become acquainted with the two musicians.
The visitors were under the guardianship of Professors Skilton, Nevin and Downing of the department of Fine Arts. The guardians immediately discovered that brother was discovered by some fraternity brothers who took possession of him forthwith. They made a circle with their chairs, set him in the midst, and made him talk. He responded nobly; and as they filled in all the gaps, Mr. Bibbs engaged in conversation. Mr. Bibbs is a graduate of the University of Minnesota.
Mr. Seagle, in the meantime, gravitated to the big fire-fplace, where he stood toasting his back as he talked. There wasn't anything formal about it, and he seemed to be much more interested in the negro dialect stories that he told with great skill, and ill treatment than he was in the inauguration to the museum. The encounter doesn't seem to weigh on his mind, and his interest in other people seemed to be much greater than his interest in himself.
Along with the stories that popped into his head and out again to the delight of those who heard him, he told of some of his experiences in the South. One of them was a negro funeral where he both saw and heard Thomas Jefferson "precach the funeral" of George Washington.
Mr Sengle's voice can be heard by those who failed to attend the concert, in both Victor and Edison records. In speaking of the difficulty performing good records, he points out that if you are other than directly into the middle of the horn of the phonograph, the results are bad, as the notes are likely to be thrown out of gear, so to speak, by the sides of the horn. It is photographic representation of the voices of many great singers, while others, by reason of some peculiar quality in their voices, get good results almost invariably. He added that some great singers who are perfectly at ease before any audio recording may not seem ready, but they try to sing into a phonograph.
Later over sandwiches and coffee.
Mr. Seagle forsook music for

EDITS MATH MAGAZINI
The American Mathematical Monthly which for the past four years has been published by the cooperation of twelve western uniiversities has been adopted as the official publication of the University of America, which was formed in Columbus, Ohio, during the Christmas holidays. Prof. U. G. Mitchell of the University of Kansas was elected associate editor of the paper. The society with its journal has for its aim the promotion of interest in mathematics and science out with a membership of over 600 including college and university professors from most colleges in the United States and Canada.
WHATABOUT YOUR PART?
Last year $2500 went from the University for the relief of suffering in Europe. This year $300 has been sent, and the situation is more acute. Are we becoming hardened?
The extent of the response to the request for clothes for the people of Belgium and northern France will furnish an interesting commentary on the way in which students regard such enterprises. There has been little personal solicitation, on the theory that continual diming is neither necessary or desirable.
A telephone call to 2485W will bring an automobile for the collection of any clothes you may care to give.

NO COASTING PERMITS
No Sledding on Lawrence Streets to be Allowed Savs Mayor
"I do not think that I shall grant any coating permits" said Mayor Francisco this morning, "I am against coating on the streets and I believe the people of Lawrence are also opposed to it."
In view of this fact anyone using the streets as a place to coast will be liable to arrest and punishment under city ordinance No. 1147 which provides that: "any person or persons to coast...on any of the public streets...except at such times and on such streets as may be designated by the mayor, under police regulation." Further, "that any person or persons violating any of the streets shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor and fined not to exced the sum of $100."
Each year in the past has had its crop of coasting accidents; legs and arms have been broken, several have been crippled for life, and one man killed instantly. Last year two students were seriously injured; a man cripped for life and a woman suspected for injury to still doubtful that she will recover.
"As soon as there is enough snow for coasting," said Mayor Francisco, "I am afraid when the telephone rings it may be another coasting accident."
Mr. Shea says that the golf links offer a fair place to coast and the students may make use of thcA, but beyond that nothing will be done. However a report that a part, was coasting on Indiana street Fri evening seems to indicate that the students do not take very favorably links.
Chancellor Strong is anxious that the students should have a coasting place on the campus and thus eliminate this dangerous street coating.
"The task of providing a coasting place has been placed in the hands of Mr. Shea," the Chancellor said, "but we must do our best for that purpose he can do little."
STUDENTS WILL HELP
Are Asked to Give Clothes for the Relief of European Sufferers
Sufferers
All students of the University have been asked to give clothing for the relief of suffering in Belgium and northern France, where the helpless—those who cannot fight—have been left behind with no care for them.
Fraternities, sororites, and organized dwelling houses have been solicited personally. The task of seeing each student individually was too great, so the committee asks that any who have clothes to contribute call Miss Frances Snow, at 2485W, as soon as possible. The class will send. The clothes will go from Lawrence with those being collected by the women of the town.
HAWAHAN PLAYERS WILL
SING AND LECTURE
A talk by one of the players on "Hawaiian Music, its past and present" will be a feature of the concert in Fraser next Friday evening.
Some of the Hawaiian players are fully qualified as authorities on music of their native land. The players were on the Redpath-Horner circuit last year and have played in the beach clubs and hotels in New York, Hawaii and Sup Francisco and other large cities in this country.
One of the singers will talk on early Hawaiian music and will show its development down to date, illustrating the different stages from the chants to present day melodies by the use of his instruments. He will explain how the weird music is created with a guitar. After this the players will give some classical selections and conclude the concert by a medley of popular airs.

"SEE AMERICA FIRST
Author Says Contemporary Writers Should See Beyond N.Y.
"The they ought to go to America," Mr. Irving Bachelier made the statement. He spoke quietly, kindly and deliberately. That is the way Mr. Bachelier talks. There was nothingational in the remark—except the words.
Mr. Bachelter, journalist and author, was discussing the popular novelists of today, the American novelists, and he advised them to "go to America." He had just finished criticizing their works, and with the spirit of the true critic was endearing to make his points constructive.
Understand, Mr. Bacheller did not begin the criticism of his fellow writers. He is not built that way. But when asked if Owen Wister had been right in attacking the "quack novel" he assented.
"The brazen sex appeal is already dead," said the creator of Eben Holden, "and the false striving for vividness, the Mutt and Jeff touch, the little-tie type are all going. It is all tawdry. For a time the unusualness of it makes it popular, but already the people are beginning to tire of it."
And then he told why such writing existed, and tucked the "See America Exposed" book.
"SEE AMERICA FIRST"
"Europe starts at the Harlem river," asserted Mr. Bacheller. "New York is just like Paris or London. When an author starts on the road to New York, you must accompany in New York and thereafter he oscillates between it and the Players Club. Then he has to resort to the bizarre writing to keep his clientele. What he needs to do is to get out and see and meet the people, for that is the reason he finds true truth, and the truth is the fundamental of all real literature.
“If a man can take some characters and certain conditions and relations and weave it into a tale from which the reader will get some truth of life, and about which he can say ‘Here I have something I know is so,’ he has achieved something of lasting value. Truth is the basic element of writing.”
EBEN HOLDEN A SIMPLE TALE
Then to illustrate, Mr. Bachelier told of his book, "Eben Holden," a kindly simple tale touched with humor and homely pictures of New England life, which has had a remarkable success.
"I had no notion that I was writing a popular novel," declared Mr. Bachelier. "I just wrote a story about people I knew. There are no great adventures or remarkable incidents in it. I only expected its sale to reach perhaps ten thousand, but instead it has crossed the half million mark.
"For a long time I could not understand it. Then one day a man came to me and said, I could not read your book without tears in my eyes. Why, how? How do we get those odors of cooking turkey at Christmas time were the oders we used to have in our house, and the things Eben Holden said were the things my father used to say." Then I knew that truth was the great thing my work. Ultimately the people with support only writing which is true."
The Methodist young people will told a farewell meeting tomorrow evening for Nina Kanaga, who will eave soon for Santiago, Chile, where he will teach in a seminary. A special program has been arranged.
With the chapel filled to overflowing in spite of the misty rain falling outside Irving Bachelier gave readings on Wednesday before his "Lizzie" yesterday afternoon. Before beginning his readings, Mr. Bachelier took a vote from the audience as to whether he should tell Lizzie or of some other reason why he didn't crowd unanimously voted for Lizzie.

The orchard pests of Kansas must reckon with one powerful enemy in planning a campaign against the orchard crops of Kansas farmers—that enemy is the entomological department. One has to know that the state is constantly under the spection and supervision of University entomologists.

BIBLE CLASSSES HAVE BEEN STARTED AT SORORITIES
In a co-educational school, at the most the college girl has comparatively little time for religious duties and is not so likely to fact that the sororites have started Bible classes that are to meet once a week, and are to be conducted by members of the faculty, ministers, or members that is vitally interested in this study.
Most of these classes have just started and will continue for about twelve weeks. The Rev. Noble S. Hancock, the editor, teaches classes of the Kappa Alpha Theta, Gamma Phi Beta, and Alpi XIIDelta chapters; George O. Foster will have charge of the class of the Pi Beta Phi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Rev. E.A. Edwards will have the Sigma Kappa chapter.
The STAGE IS ALL SET Work of "Witching Hour" Cast to Eclipse Former Attempts
Attempts
"Let's go now, everybody! Put
litter in here and put it into this
litter spat. Make it clean."
Prof. Arthur MacMurray was speaking. Fifteen earnest students, including his wife "our" threw themselves into the work with vim, and the rehearsal proceeded.
It was in Green Hall, last night—from 7:30 to 10 o'clock. For more than three hours the cast of the Dracula series worked in the last dress rehearsal.
Elmer Clark, manager of the play, and leading man, rushed off and on to Coach Murray. He heard his cues; making suggestions to Coach Murray in the meantime; and occasionally slipping a cough drop—"good for that frog in the throat"
Down in front, while the actors were working, Professor MacMurray shot forth a steady string of advice to the players; and Prof. Howard T. Hill conferred in whispers with John Dykes, president of the Dramatic Club and the man who makes up the "charactercreator" of his theater hearsal speeded on to its close—and finally the tired actors were sent home to get a real night's rest.
Tonight, at the Bowersock Theater, "The Witching Hour" will be presented to the student body. The play is said by coaches, dramatic club members, and the players in the cast to be the best, the "most worth while" play ever attempted at K. U. by anament of dramatic coaching instituted at the University last year is a success will be determined tonight.
A full house will be on hand to greet the performance. The seat sale, which began Monday, has been reopened and all seats are seated remain. Elmer Clark said this morning, however, that every effort would be made to accommodate the "last minute" purchasers. Prices for the production are 75, 50 and 25 cents.
BOTANY PICTURE MONEY
BOTANY PICTURE MONEY
TO HELP WAR SUFFERERS
By an almost unanimous vote, the Botany Club, at a special business meeting called at 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, decided to give $10 to the relief of war sufferers in Europe in support of the club members in the Jayhawkery.
"I think we should be loyal to the Jayhawker," one member said, "but with millions of war-striken women and children needing assistance, it looks like a shame to put ten whole dollars into a picture."
Storm Too Much For Cars
Storm Too Much For Cars
Students who had 8:30 classes this morning and took the 8 o'clock street car to Hill arrived just an hour before driving snow made the running of the cars almost impossible. Two cars, both heavily laden with first hour University students, were running close together. The first car took the incline fairly well but the second on coming to McCook Field refused to go farther. The motorman backed to Eighth Street and trilled to rush the Agent's arm. Again the snow won and the car halted. Both fenders of the car were removed but the change in weight relieved little With the aid of the first car the two were able to ascend Mount Oread.

Washburn Five Comes to Play One Game With
A pretty classy game of basketball will be seen tonight in Robinson gym when the Washburn squad lines up against the Hamilton basketeers. The crowd will doubtless be small because of the snow and ice on the path to the gym but once inside the crowd will see a game worth seeing.
The Ichabods have a fast team this year and they are looking for a chance to get more Jayhawk meat. The last time they tasted this choice food was three years ago so they have several games as well as a few football games to be avenged. This game will help get the Kansas squad in action on Saturday and Saturday on the Lincoln court and will do the same for the Ichabods who meet the Kansas Wesleyans Friday night.
PRACTICE AT HASKELL
Because of the Seagle concert in the gym last night Coach Hamilton had to find a court to practice on. The new gym at Haskell proved to be a bustling gym with light scrimmage was held there. The Indians were not brought on as had been planned so the Kansans practised unmolested on the foreign court, particularly last night and the night before they have not hit the right pace yet. The lack of experience in collegiate athletics is responsible mainly for the poor showing of the Jayhawkers 'his first game' against them and some stiff games the coaches hope to get the men on their stride before the season is very far advanced.
The game tonight will begin at 7:15
a sharp shock and will be over before
8:15.
Y. W. OUT FOR MONEY
Two Hundred University Women Start Campaign Today for 8500
Two hundred girls started today as one committee to raise $500 for the Y. W. C. A. Each of these two hundred girls will have their acquaintance and ask them to consider for the rest of the week the proposition of pledging themselves next Tuesday afternoon for a small amount of money to support the support of the local organization.
"The organization," said Miss Gittens, secretary of the Y. W. C. A. "is need of the money and we are googling for it in order to saying that although this was a new plan for raising money she thought hat it would be successful and at any age were told to be more necessary amount by entertainment.
On next Tuesday will be a pledge hour when each of the girls on the committee together with the five others whom they have seen will meet and give their pledges. "It would be much more desirable if all the girls on Wednesday evening will meet," said Miss Gittens, "so that collecting will be unnecessary. I have no doubt but that the money will be raised without any trouble. Last Wednesday evening at a meeting, the cabinet members alone raised a hundred dollars. If twenty girls can do the work, they will receive the rest of the girls in the University to raise four hundred dollars. This plan, which has been successfully carried out at Manhattan and other schools, is new here but there is little chance for failure. The Y. W. does the best, the Fate this year as it did last year so far back on a more dignified means of raising the money."
The campaign will last for three days. On Wednesday and Thursday of this week and on Monday of next week the girls on the committee will have a chance to talk over the proposition with the rest of the girls in the University. Each day at 5 o'clock they will talk over the reasons and have open discussion on why such an organization as the Y, W. C, A. should be supported by the University.
K. U. Women Help
The Chi Omegas have set aside Thursday evening from 7 until 8 to roll bandages at their house for the Lawrence relief committee to send to them other sororites have members co-operating with the women of Lawrence.
Students who have clothing to contribute for the relief of the needy in Belgium and the north of France should telephone Bell 2485W not later than Thursday morning, and an automobile will call sometime Thursday or Friday.

God, Parents and Instructors can never be required—Poor Richard Ickes.
WEVE GAINED SOMETHING ANYWAY
Pringle, you are coming home without apparently having accomplished anything. In the eyes of the world at large the Ford Peace expedition has been a failure. But you never can tell. The ripples may reach shores that Mr. Ford didn't think about at all.
A number of universities that were asked to send representatives on the expedition, declined to do so. It may be that they were right in refusing. But for the University of Kansas it was a good thing to have sent a representative. We have followed you on your trip. Pringle, we have taken a greater interest in the expedition because we were represent in it, and through the expedition we have taken a keeper interest in the whole peace movement.
movement.
Our horizon has been widened just a little bit more through the interest we have taken in the affairs of the world, so we don't feel that it was a waste of time and energy for you to have made this trip. As far as the peace movement is concerned, the expedition may have been a failure, but as far as the University of Kansas is concerned it achieved some end. Don't feel discouraged, Pringle. No energy is absolutely lost.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Will that old suit go to Abe and Mawruss, or to a shivering refugee in Belgium?
WHAT DO YOU THINK? University students in the United States are taking an active interest in military drill. They are expressing their opinions of compulsory training, either through discussion or by accepting drill in their University courses.
Many of the larger universities and colleges have taken up the matter and have asked to be allowed to introduce drill. Others have expressed their willingness to offer military training as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made with the government. Numbers of schools over the country are already active in training undergraduate men in the rudiments of army life.
It is a serious question, and one that should be given serious consideration. If the United States should be forced into war, would Kansas men who have had no training, take their places among those men who have had several years of discipline under competent officers, or would they be placed, along with uneducated recruits—in the awkward squad? With but few officers, would not a student showing ability in his school drill be given a commission should it be necessary to create an army of volunteers?
Would the training of men at the University of Kannas, being war any
sooner than it might come otherwise, or would it put off any farther, the universal peace which we all hope will come some day? Would drill, the ability to obey a command promptly without asking why, and the feeling of loyalty to the flag which military training inspires benefit the men of the University of Kansas, if war should never come?
This question of military training in universities and colleges has become so general that it seems as though it should command some attention from the University of Kan- 395.
WITHOUT A WORD
When Irving Bachelier arose and began to arrange chairs on the platform in order that his large audience might all be seated in so far as it was possible, he made an unconscious appeal to our sense of democracy that won the student body before he had spoken a word.
It is a queer thing, this feeling of democracy. As Americans we cannot help being won over by a delicate, unconscious appeal to our belief that we are all equal. And yet to an ostentation appeal to that same feeling, we would be harshly critical.
Here'e to you, Irving Bacheller!
DOING THINGS TO OLD SHAKE
This is A Winter's Tale, as it was told to the Daily Kansan by Troilus and Cressida. Romeo and Juliet were two lovers, he A Merchant of Venice, and she, the daughter of Coriolanus. The courtship was like A Midsummer Night's Dream. When he begged her to marry him, she said, "Let it be As You Like It." So they were married on Twelfth Night. She was attended by the Merry Wives of Windsor, and he by Two Gentlemen of Verona. The music was furnished by a Cymbalie. They went to live in a Hamlet. Once her husband discovered that she had a temper like The Tempest, and that she would make Much Ado About Nothing. He decided to begin the work of the Taming of the Shrew. It was no easy job, for every time, she gave him Measure for Measure. At last she grew repentant, and said that her behavior had been just A Comedy of Errors, and that she wanted to begin again, so that their life would not be Love's Labors Lost. He took her in his arms, and kissed her as he said, "All's Well That Ends Well."
People who didn't know that they could pigeon-walk found themselves doing it around the slippery corners yesterday. "It's either that or the glide," is the way one fellow put it. Another 'lowed how everything was musical' - it was either look sharp or B flat.
Just east of the Fraser Hall steps is a little stone with the inscription, "Site of barracks and trenches, 1863." Here is an opportunity for some ingenious chap to write a little account entitled "When Mt. Oread was a trench."

THEY HAVE COURAGE
Congratulations are due the Oregon Emerald. It is ignoring the conventional meaning of dramatic criticism, as usually found in college and university papers, and started its criticism. The Emerald defines its new policy: "In former years, criticism has been a harmless sort of occupation in appreciative writing. This year the Emerald adopted parcel of its new policy to criticize drama dramas in a sincere manner.
"The criticisms thus far have evoked a lot of counter-criticism, but little commendation. We believe that on the whole the criticism has been fair, and at least we can instruct our course to take a thesaurus, to the theater as a boon companion, gather a plethora of superlatives, throw them together and label the resultant a dramatic criticism," said the critic found too happy a home in the columns of the Emerald
"Now is the time to set a standard in college journalism that has already become a determining ideal in metropolitan journalism. Our choice of the back office" and forget the "comps" in the composition of the criticism.
"In pledging allegiance to such an ideal there is danger of missing the ideal in the attempt to approximate it, just as there is a danger in assuming the same into the didactic. We are trying to counteract any such tendency by having two or three staff editors criticize the production as editors or the criticism. By this method we can overcome any serious criticism.
Senior.
While the Emerald has thus been trying to do justice to itself as well as to dramatic productions, murmurs of discontent have reached from faculty, students and players. Which voice shall we heed?
THE WORK OF
Now if the lamp of learning is to be kept burning during the progress of maturation, then is it not clear that this burden lies with the universities and colleges? Even as, throughout the duration of the Dark Ages, the spark of learning was kept alive, to a greater extent than the monasteries of Europe, so in our age, which, in spite of our scientific progress and our command over the forces of nature, is in some danger of ranking as one of the Dark Ages of the world's history,—even so does the responsibility of teachers of our universities and schools to guard and keep pure this precious lore of the world. William J. Serrill.
"The Emerald critics have been called 'criticators' or words to that effect, some not so polite. If in the future some dramatic criticism strikes our readers as the work of a biased biped who can't distinguish a good production from a circus, we urge that our readers write us a little communication in which they can give vent to their wrath.
THE WORK OF A UNIVERSITY
"For pity's sake don't button-hole us on the way to classes and challenge us to a debate on the spur of the moment, but I am aware of gestures which strikes us as pugilism, but which is supposed to be criticism."

A single newspaper advertisement dealing with pie resulted in the sale of 30,000 cuts of pie the following day in the restaurants owned by the advertiser, and, of course, the饼 trade following that demonstration has grown tremendously. This restaurant man has found it possible to increase the number of his eating places to sixty-eight, and has found it wise immensely to increase his advertising space in the newspapers. This is experience.—Indianapolis, (Ind) Times.

The nonadvertising restaurant man was stumped. He cogitated. He declared the public would have to be told about the points that made him proud of his restaurants. He began to spend a little money for newspaper advertising. The first month he invested $600. At this time he spends $30,000 a year in newspaper advertising and he finds it pays to do it.
"You know it, and you are satisfied," said the friend. "but what does the general public know about it?"

GRADES IMPROVE NOV
proaching Finals The Cause?
Is Absence of Football or Ap-
proachment Finals. The Cause?
Since the football season is over the grades in nearly all the departments of the University have been greatly improved. As an example of his Prof. Robert M. Ogden, head of the department of psychology, posted the average of his class grades that were made in Psychology 1 during the football season and the grades that were made in a quiz all the quiz sections the percentage of I's and II's was greater and in one particular section the I's were treble the number they had been in former quizzes.
Professor Ogden does not think that this is an argument for the abolition of football from the "students" class schedule," however, and accounts for the material increase in grades by the students. He also argues better how to study the course and the fact that the end of the term is approaching with its uncertainties.

A downtown merchant complained this morning because his business is always poor in January. Doubtless true.
And doubtless true because that merchant is not making any effort to increase his January business by stimulating it in offering seasonable goods to possible purchases.
The successful merchant does not sit back and whine when business is dull. He fights harder than he does when business is good. He moves his stock even at a sacrifice. The same Lawrence merchant complains of the students and faculty who patronize the mail order houses.
Montgomery Ward flooded the campus yesterday with news of its January and February sales. We know of one faculty man who sent a $6.78 check for an article he saw offered in the Montgomery Ward circular.

THE TAX-PAYER'S DOLLAR
The State Politician not Always Clear in His Campaign Speeches
That the Kansas citizen has been deceived by candidates for state offices in their campaigns as regards the money they were going to save in appropriations both for education, care of the prisoners and defective in the state offices, is evidenced by an investigation of the appropriations made by the legislature for the year ending this. This in- house assessment was made by a student at the University of Kansas as a regular class assignment.
The state taxes for that year were 12 cents on the hundred dollars worth of property. That is, if a man paid local taxes on $833 worth of property, he paid just one dollar in state taxes. Of that dollar, 43.60 cents went to the University of Kansas; 11.7 cents to the University of Kansas; 12.6 cents to Kansas State Agricultural College; 4.1 cents to the Kansas State Normal at Emporia; 2.7 cents to Kansas State Manual Training Normal at Pittsburgh; 1.1 cents to the Fort Hays Kansas Normal School; 1.1 cents to the Olathe School for the Deaf and .58 cents to the Kansas City School for the Blind.
If the average citizen paid taxes on $1,400 worth of property, and that is nearly the amount, less than sixty cents went toward higher education, the one paramount activity this state wants on for the training of better citizens.
Out of that tax payer's dollar, 33 cents go for the upkeep and instruction at the state penitentiary, or to assist inmates in some asylums, state hospitals, soldiers' homes and institutions for the epileptic and feebleminded. Nearly as much is spent for prisoners and defectives by education of the best youth of the state.
For all the help the farmer receives from the agricultural experiment stations, the tax payer with $833 worth of property pays only 1.3 cents; for all other properties, boards, he pays 5.5 cents; for the upkeep of the state offices, he pays 5.9 cents; for the district court expenses all over the state, he pays 2.8 cents; for the finest buildings in Topka-$ Memorial Hall - he paid only 3 cents in 1914.
The other 14.45 cents that are left out of his dollar, go for miscellaneous costs.

K. U. ACTORS MAKE GOOD
"Witching Hour" Staged by Dramatic Club With Professional Skill
An audience which caused the "S. R. O." sign to be displayed at the Bowersock Theater, despite the fact that the temperature was ten degrees below zero, attended the production of "The Witch Hunt" given last night by U. Dramatic Club. It was the quality of the performance that the audience felt amply repaid for its journey to the theater over ice streets.
A HARD PLAY
The Dramatic Club chose a most difficult drama, a problem play involving a number of situations which required careful attention. The typeological analysis employed in the equipment of the plot made difficult setting.
acting. cast handed a number of tense moments with greater skill than is to be found in the usual amateur production
Elmer Clark had the role of "Jack Brookfield," gambler. His strong impersonation was remarkably well sustained throughout the entire play. Though he worked under difficulty because of a hacking cough.
PLAYED UNDER DIFFICULTIES
Ada Dykes, as "Mrs. Helen Whipple," showed strong emotional power, Miss Dykes is really too tough however, she is part of a mother, Mr. Clark, Miss Dykes worked under difficulty. She was ill all day yesterday, and arose from bed in the evening to play her part.
"Lew Ellinger," in the hands o. Alton Gumbiner, proved to be a real characterization of an eccentrically humorous role. Gumbiner drew more than one laugh by his clever work. Otto Dittmier, as "Judge Prentice," did justice to a heavy character role for which he had but a few actions. "Frank Hankey," as played by Teresa Hankey, was an exceedingly illuminous villian; and he succeeded in being heartily hated by everyone—to Mr. Runson's credit as an actor.
KARL A GOOD WOOER
"Viola Campbell," the juvenile lead, was played charmingly by Miss Alice Coors. Miss Coors looked the part of the young fancies so entirely satisfactorily that some of them joked they were playing the role of "Clay." And they probably would have put a lot more pep in those love scenes.
NUMBER 75
Helen Gallagher appeared to advantage as "Mrs. Alice Campbell", though she was not appearing in the role of a woman much older than herself.
Karl Jones, as "Clay Whipple," was quite effective though his love scenes were better done than the one where, after killing Tom Dunning, was supposed to shoot him, as "Whipple," played by Guy Waldo, made a hit with the audience, and everyone regretted that his untimely death in the first act left him without a W.B. in cochlear infused real pop into the part of Mr. Emmett the reporter.
"Judge Henderson," played by Le兰德 Thompson; and "Colonel Bayley," in the hands of Clarendon Havingsurst, were two well acted character parts. "Harvey" and "Joe." two negro servants, dressed laughously because of the Pearse and charm with which the Pesas and Ames Rogers the actors, wore their blackface make-up. Fred Hard appeared as a servant.
DIDN'T MISS A CUE
Making allowances for some slow movements which are unavoidable in amateur productions, the production as a whole was remarkably well executed. Not a cue was missed in the whole play, and not a cue was missed in the show, the showed careful, thorough preparation. The stage settings were well done.
To Prof. Arthur MacMurray, who gave so much of his time to the coaching of the players, is much of the credit for a successful performance.

PROES ARE REFORMING
Take Heed of Students' Protest and Dismiss Classes at Whistle
The "Report that prof who has not been closing his class on time" agitation has been prilific in results and at the same time has occasioned members of the faculty to give vent to their feelings on this matter.
Prof. W, E. Humble says that he doesn't care for the publicity that the Daily Kansan offers so he has set his targets fast, thereby taking no chances.
Dr. Froemke Burdick admits that he is scared since the recent agitation of the Daily Kansan against profs hold their classes after the whistle blows and as a precaution he has appointed students in his various classes as timekeeper have been held by duty admirably, in spite of the strangeness of it all.
DR. BURDICK APPOINTS TIMEKEEPER
Yesterday in a sociology lecture Prof. F, W. Blackmar stated that the multitude would usually fall in line and seek what the majority wanted. About that time the whistle blew. "suppose the majority of you want the class to be dismissed, you're excused," said the professor.
when the whistle blew, Prof. Gerd E. Putman was in the middle of a word but he excused the class with long time to add to the remaining syllable.
PROF. HIGGINS FIND TECHNICALITY
PROF. HIGGINS FIND TECHNICIAN
"Law classes don't have to close until the hour," is Prof. W.E. Higgins' interpretation of the whistle rule.
Uncle Jimmy, Dean of the School of Law, feels mighty bad because his name appeared in the Daily Kansan's Dishonor Roll Monday for keeping a class overtime. He confessed this fact to members of his class. "I am getting old," he added, "and sometimes I can't hear the whistle."
One student stated that his instructors were complying with the newly proposed requirement as did the union man who was thrown overboard in midcoast, he swam eight hours and quit.
The Approaching of Quiz Weel Causes Many Changes in Student Habits
ALL WORK AND NO PLAY
It wouldn't take a Burns detective to discover that quiz week is coming soon. Any person, who has been a frequenter of Lee's College Inn, Bricken's, Swede's or Carroll's, and sees the tremendous dropping off of crowds, to the sorrow of the proprietors, would be surprised by the air. And something is in the air. The atmosphere is heavy, and cloudy, and from the present point of view, there are no silver linings.
One glimpse into the Library would firmly convince the aforesaid person of his suspicions. Empty desks and calm librarians are a thing of the past; crowded desks and frantic librarians racing madly about to assist an even more frantic freshman to complete an already ever-due term-theme, are things of the present.
The few that do still persist in eating, do it with a note-book propped up against their glass, and a fountain pen in one hand and a sandwich in the other, which combination to the harrassed mind of the student often causes serious results.
Since vacation the circulation manager has been forced to make three changes in carriers and two substitutions. These new men have failed to deliver properly in some cases. The regular carriers are now all back. Please phone complaints to K. U. 143—and they will be promptly attended to.
The last scene to complete' the picture of this Before Quiz Tableau is the optimist grown pessimist, the grafter grown studious, and the good-natured grown grouchy. Quizzes will do anything!

Council Plans to Install Cooperative Service During Quiz Week
TO HAVE BOOK EXCHANGE IT'S A COLD WORLD
As a stepping stone towards a regular students' cooperative store, the Student Council yesterday evening voted to operate a book exchange in Fraser Hall during the second semester. The library is Saturdays January 22 and will transact business from 1 until 2 o'clock every afternoon of quiz week.
The immediate object of the exchange will be to assist students in exchanging books. Secondhand books will be sold at a price to set bet by the owner and the commission. The exchange for handling the books will be deducted from the sum received by the original owner. Under no circumstances, must the commission be paid on sale of a single book exceed 25 cents, according to Manager Ireland.
It will be under the management of Neal Ireland, representing the Men's Council, and a representative of the S. G. A., who will be appointed later.
HOW IT IS TO WORK
In addition to books, the exchange will handle various student supplies, such as notebooks, pencils, quizbooks, etc. The Exchange will be in the east end of Professor Johnson's office and will be held by means of this experiment, the Council hopes to learn what the attitude of the student body would be towards a cooperative store. If the exchange is well supported, the Council hopes that an cooperative store next fall, like those operated by many other state institutions.

1916 Jayhawker Will Contain Pictures of More Than 150 Second Year Students
Pictures for the sophomore section of the 1916 Jayhawker are rolling in to the annual office and from present day, about 300 year students in the year book than those from any other class. Up until a week ago those in charge of the year book have had the results of the last few days have been more than gratifying.
"There seems to be a misunderstanding among the sophomores regarding the terms offered them by the Jayhawker," said Billy Koester, manager of the second year section this fall. He and other staff with the formal occasions, $1.50 covers everything. That is, it covers the expense of having the picture taken, the cut made, and the space in the Annual. I want to urge every sophomore to sign up and make a deposit once, as the rush at the studio will prevent anyone from obtaining pictures after ten days have elapsed.
"Juniors, seniors, and sophomores, can make arrangements for their space by calling at the Jayhawker office or building at an annualism-building, at any time after 8 o'clock in the morning. From then on until 12 o'clock either E. M. Johnson, Ross Bunenbark, or I will be there to arrange classes for all of our dents desire space in the Annual."
Y. W. Campaign Starts
The campaign for subscription started by the Y. W. C. A. is in full force, though no pledges will be taken until next Tuesday. Meanwhile the Y. W. women are doing everything to interest all the women students of the University in this campaign, and to show them the need for hearty response from every one. Prayer meetings are held every evening at five-thirty in the morning, and it is free to come. One hundred and fifty women are in the field, each of whom has promised to secure at least five girls to attend the meeting next Tuesday when the pledges will be taken.

Seventeen Below on Mount Oread This Morning— Sets Record
Tis a cold,cold world. Much more so than usual.
According to official readings at Blake Hall this morning the mercury stood at seventeen degrees below zero, at sunrise. Although at 8:30 o'clock it had risen only two degrees it was steadily growing warmer. At 7:06 o'clock last night the thermometer registered seven degrees and continued to drop until about 6:30 o'clock this morning. This sets a new mark for the winter. The lowest previous mark was slightly below zero.
DANGER OF COAL FAMINE?
Most of the buildings over the campus are sng and warm this morning and there has been little of the customary changing rooms in order to find a warm place to hold class. There is a reason for this, the students appreciate. Down at the heating plant the men are shoveling coal today—and lots of it. It is estimated that 40 or 50 tons are consumed on such days as this. Then, the plant has to students working fine. The only difficulty that may arise over the heating question is that, if the weather continues bad, there is danger of a coal famine. The authorities, in fact, were so weak that they have dispatched a hurry-up team evenworth for reinforcement.
HUNT WARM CORNERS
Libraries, rest rooms, and study halls have been packed to capacity all day by students who are doing all their studying for the day on the Hill Many have not even been able to see them before they are scattered over steps, in corners, and any place where it is both warm and quiet. No complaints have been turned in at the offices of the deans, which would indicate that any of the rooms were untenable, and in Fraser Gardens, the rooms to be more than sufficient heat.

HINDERS RELIEF WORK
Owing to the extreme inclementy of the weather, the women of Lawrence, who are collecting clothes for the Belgians and people of Northern France, may not be able to call at the student dwelling hughes this afternoon and tomorrow, as they originally intended. The collection will be carried on as possible, as it is desired to get the clothing into Europe without delay.
bad Weather Holds Back Collection of Clothing for War Sufferers
Miss Edith Snow, a daughter of former Chancellor Snow, who is at the head of the movement requests students to notify her as soon as possible where there are clothes to be gathered, an automatic collection may be planned.
Students have already begun to respond to the appeal that has been made, both in rooming houses and fraternities. The University committee expects liberal response, as the team has done little charitable work this year.
An earthquake was registered by the University seismograph early this morning. It is thought that this may be a record of disturbance near Vevunius in Italy. The quakes were recorded at 12:38 o'clock this morning and lasting until 1:45 o'clock. The second shock began at 2:40 o'clock and lasted until 4:45 o'clock. The second disturbance was heavier than the first one and it continued. The exact location cannot be determined, but Prof. F. E. Kester, of the department of physics, believes that it is in Italy.

WHAT DOES K. U. READ?
Statistics of Lawrence News Dealers Offer a Surprise or Two
IF YOU WERE IN BUSINESS
If you were to open a newstaff downtown, what magazines would you stock up heaviest on?
It seems to be an open question how far university students are capable of writing reflective essays or reflections. Some light and a surprise or two are thrown on the problem by the kind of magazines which K. U. students read.
You would have a supposedly highly educated clientele, practically all university men and women. With that fact as your cue, you would be satisfied by the friendly and the Yale Review, or do your plunging in magazines of a lighter nature?
In other words, what kind of stuff do K. U. students read?
GUESS WHICH IS THE BEST SELLER
GUESSE WHICH IS THE BEST SELLER
Highly cultured and elevating magazines are not in as great demand by the students as are books; stories from their lives may be amuse, if the statistics secured from A. L. Griggs, owner of a newsstand on Massachusetts street, are to be taken as representative of the entire student body.
The Saturday Evening Post is the most popular. Mr. Griggs sells about four hundred copies of this magazine every month. This is almost three times as many copies as its nearest competitor, the Cosmopolitan, or twenty times as many as the Larry Warner Digest. The Times also slung cowl toward the rear of the procession.

DIDN'T RAISE MY BOY--
Say Chancellor Strong, Prof. Carl Becker and Prof. Dykstra
"I am strongly opposed to military training in our colleges and universities." This was the statement made by Chancellor Strong when interviewed upon the subject of his morning of Yaye, a detailed and careful study of this question and his conclusion in the matter should be valuable and carry weight with it. In his report, 1914-15 he says: "Among colleges in Minnesota, Cornell in the east and Minnesota in the west are honorably conspicuous. But there is a great deal of testimony both from Minnesota and from Cornell that the required military drill makes more trouble in the realities of teaching than anything else in the whole institution put together and that instead of helping discipline, it in many cases, tends to undermine it. I agree with the president of Yale, although I have not noticed a question as important as that military training in our higher institutions of learning would be highly impractical," the Chancellor concluded.
BLACKMAR ON THE FENCE
Dean F. W. Blackmar, when asked what he thought about the question said, "I really do not know whether compulsory military training would be a good thing or not. I have not given the matter enough serious consideration to come to a conclusion how the students would not like it, but then of course there might be advantages to outweigh this objection."
Professor Cari Becker thinks the matter is of slight importance one way or another. "When I was a student at the state university of Wisconsin, we had two years compulsory military training and no one liked it," he said. "This work was given to my physical training, no one work being required. As I look back upon it, I can't see much physical benefit derived from it. I did, however, learn something about military tactics."
"HAVE PLENTY TO DO NOW"
Professor Becker added that he did not believe the United States would have any serious trouble with other countries, not enough at least to force college students to prepare themselves to go to the front. Instead of training college men for war, I think the government should train them. I believe the universities have taken upon their shoulders all they can manage without the addition of military training."
"GO SLOW" PROF. DYKSTRA
C. A. Dykstra, associate professor in history, when interviewed upon this question made the following comment: "The advisability of establishing such a course is greatly great extent upon whether or not military preparedness is to have any value to the United States. I believe that the hysteria of the present demand ought not to hit our colleges, the fortresses of intellectual Americanism, the frenzy of intellectual America should be the last to subscribe to a popular demand which the students can not justify. The primary purpose of our colleges is to supply the intellectual leaders of the country, not military leaders. To put compulsion into action and universities would be conscription, plain and simple and conscription in any form is strongly opposed by the American people. Of course, those colleges which have it need not drop it on account of the present agitation. If K. W. why don't they join the present local company? No." Professor Dykstra concluded, "I am against conscription in colleges and universities."
At the meeting of the Mathematical Club held Monday afternoon in the Administration Building Prof. H. E. Jordan spoke on "Methods of computing mathematics" and that mathematics accurate results cannot be obtained by taking the average of numerous observations, but that these observations can be used in what is known as the standard deviation method. In using this method the answer is obtained by taking the squares of the differences of the observations.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 13, 1916.
IT'S ONLY COMMON SENSE
Anger is never without a reason.
A good one is a good one—Poor Richard's Almance.
ITS ONLY COMMON SEED.
To the lovers of winter sports the city ordinance prohibiting all coasting on the streets may at first thought seem unreasonable, but with a little serious consideration it must be apparent to every student in the University that the measure is the only reasonable one to be adopted. Under conditions which prevail in Lawrence it is not safe for students to coast on the streets with even the most careful preparation. It is impossible for us to guard against the unexpected, and in all the cases of past fatal and serious accidents which have occurred, it is the unexpected which has caused the catastrophe.
During the last two weeks there have been one or two surreptitious coasting parties on the streets. This example cannot be denounced too strongly. no University student has the right to willingly expose himself to serious injury or death, in consideration both for the University and for his parents, even if not for himself.
With the example before us of the horrible, heart breaking results which have followed from coasting accidents, it really seems that men and women who are old enough to attend the University of Kansas should have common sense enough to abide by the city ordinance and deny themselves of pleasure that might lead to wrecked lives.
WE WILL DO OUR SHARE
"For the initiation of our university scheme and type, we borrowed much stimulus and some machinery from Europe, but we are well past borrowing now. If there is borrowing in the future it will proceed in the reversed direction, by Europe from America."
That is the most significant statement made by Benjamin Idle Wheeler, the president of the University of California, in an address before the National Association of State Universities.
If his statement proves to be true, American universities will have much responsibility resting upon them. Heretofore we have been content to look across the ocean to European countries for our ideals and ideas in university work. In the future we will have to set up a standard not only for ourselves, but for the former mighty institutions of Europe. With the consciousness that we will be looked to for standards in higher education as soon as war's toll has been taken, we must face forward and endeavor to create higher ideals and a higher standard.
The University of Kansas is willing to put her shoulder to a corner of the responsibility resting on the American state universities by holding her scholarship as high as possible
Even though Kansas is located in the "provincial" west, even though she is obliged to hold classes in basements, even though her professors are underpaid, with cooperation between professors and students, and a feeling of esprit de corps, the famous spirit of Kansas may reach even to Europe and prove something worth borrowing.
AS YOU TAKE IT
Is it only a coincidence or is the department of Public Speaking trying to be practical in all things, in having the students just at this time learn Kipling's "Recessional"? Throughout the student district at all hours the last lines of each verse seem to wail up the streets:
"Lord God of hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, we lost we forget."
The effect of these lines at some times is unpleasant, to say the least. When a man who is a little conscience stricken, anyway, starts to go down to a picture show, the words brought to him on a great gust of wind seem almost like a warning from Macethh's witches. And for another man, as he puts up his window for the night, after a little preliminary cramming, the words send a cold shiver down his spine, "Lest we forget." He had overlooked the fact that he might forget. And then again some pious soul bows his head reverently as the poetic sentence sighs up to the stars. To him the words are a prayer, uttered by some kindred soul in like distress.
While all the time — who knows—it may be some energetic student learning his next day's lesson with no thought for sentiment.
CONQUERED THE MACHINE.
The story of the control of a city by a few political bosses who run things to suit themselves is not a new one in America. In fact it is disgustingly common. Cries are heard all over the land against bosdom and graft and yet such conditions seem to flourish. The machinery of corrupt politics is so well oiled that it is hard to stop.
How one man, and only a council member at that, succeeded in arousing a city to such an extent that it threw out of office the machine which had ruled the city for many years and put in a non-partisan administration is cleverly told by Meredith Nicholson in the December number of the Atlantic Monthly. The story starts on page 795.
Hachiro Yuussa is attending K. S. A. C. He is accused of being of Irish descent, but he indignantly denies it, and claims Tokio, Japan as his birthplace.
Why is it that some people call common old "grip," "la grippie?" One newspaper even called it "the la grippie." Another case of tautological repetition.
If the bacteriologists should back the Allies, the triple alliance would soon be whipped. These scientists would probably take the "Germ" out of Germany.
This is the weather that makes the Kansas students sympathize with Germany. They, too, long for a place in the sun.
After this I spent a great deal of time and pains to make an umbrella; as I was obliged to be much abroad, it was a most useful thing to me, as well for the rains as the heats. I took a world of pains with it, and it was a great while before I could make anything like to hold: my arm was quite weak, and made two or three before I had made one like to my mind: but at last I made one that would answer indifferently well; the main difficulty was to make it let down. I could make it spread, but if it did not let down and draw in, too, it was not possible to me to use it but just over my head which would not do. Then I knew what the answer, and covered it with skins, the hair upwards, so that it cast off the rain like a pent house, and when I had no need of it, could close it, and carry it under my arm.
If the U. S. gets into a war the "key"-note of the situation will be the Panama Canal "locks."

FROM "IN MEMORIAM"
F. H. Hodder.
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
I want to call attention to a misconception respecting the time for questions about what to except into the discussion of the subject in your columns. The general committee, that originally reported a rule, proposed to close all dances on Friday nights at one and dances on Saturday nights at two. The Senate changed by closing small week-end dances at twelve and providing that large dances, for which great preparations are made, (the Junior Prom, the Sophomore Hop, the Law Scrim and one "formal" a year for each ensemble), might continue until two o'clock.

I wish to say further that it is unfair to blame Mrs. Brown for the action of the Senate. The rule was passed by a practically unanimous vote of the Senate and the responsibility rests upon the whole Senate. If it is desired to make a goat of anyone who opposes him, who made the motion and is willing to bear the odum and suffer the consequences.
In the discussion of the closing hour the matter or the lights has been overworked. The principal reasons in the minds of the Senate for providing the earlier hour for small dances were first, to save the health and strength of the students, particularly of the girls, and second, because it is better social relations close small dance positions at least as large as I am told that nearly all the other large universities close their small dances at twelve. I do not insist upon this statement, because I have not looked it up myself, but to the best of my knowledge and belief it is true.
Little maid, little maid.
Editor of the Daily Kansan
This change was made by the Senate for two reasons. First, because it was assumed that it was reasonable to distinguish between the small parties, of which there is one or more every week, and the large ones, of which there are affairs, closing the former earlier and allowing more time for the latter. Second, because it was assumed that this arrangement would be more satisfactory to the students and that they would be willing to close the small parties earlier, proportionate to their time available for the large ones. The choice then lies between the proposal of the general committee, closing all parties at one and the Senate rule, closing small parties at twelve and allowing the large ones to continue until one. Personally I am willing to allow the Senate rule at one, if that is what the students want, but I do not think that it is as good a rule from the student point of view or from any point of view as the one passed by the Senate. Now it is being assumed in your column that the proposal of the general committee was close small parties at one and large ones at two, which is not the fact.

Commenting upon the revocation of the section of the sanitary code which prohibited the use of horse flesh, Commissioner Emerson said that while it is extremely likely recommend it no harm can be seen in its use. The horse never has tuberculosis and almost never communicates a malignant disease to human beings, he said.

He began to spend a little money for newspaper advertising. The first month he invested $600. At this time he spends $30,000 a year in newspaper advertising and he finds it pays to do it.
"That's a fact and I'm proud of it," replied the feeder of the public..

Jayhawker Housewife Buys Her Berries Liquid Measure—and Loses

When does the Kansas housewife get worsted?
When is a quart not a quart?
When she buys berries grown and packed in Kansas and pays as much for them as she does for those shipped in from any of the neighboring states.
Kansas and New Mexico are the only states in the Union which legalize the liquid measure for dry commodities. And New Mexico is not to blame for her error. She copied from Kansas.
In 1909, the voice of the people was heard in the Kansas legislature and a law was passed requiring that the boxes in which berries were sold to Kansas purchasers should measure up to the standard dry quart or pint. In 1927, the Kansas law making of 1011 was a measure making it legal to use the liquid measure.
In Kansas, home-grown berries may be packed in the liquid measure box without stamping, but when they are shipped to other states, they have to be marked not only as to the "supposed" amount, but as to the kind of measure. If they are shipped to Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, New York, Idaho, sin Massachusetts, New Jersey or any of fifteen middle western states, the grocer has to repack them in dry quart measures before he can sell them.
The liquid quart contains fifty-seven and three-fourths cubic inches, while the dry quart contains sixty-seven and three-fourths cubic inches. Although it is illegal to sell onion sets, cranberries and cherries from liquid measures, it is being done in Kansas every day, and, Kansas consumers do those in other states in the Union.

Extension Division Reports : Large Increased Enrollment
A report compiled by the Correspondence Study Department of the University Extension Division covering the six months period just passed in July included 437 enrollments of 28.6 per cent over the enrolments for the corresponding period of last year. The period from July to December, inclusive, in 1914 total of 437 enrolments. The same period in 1916 shows 562 enrolments.
"Among those enrolled as correspondence students is a "Blue Jacket," a Sister of Charity, and we received the letter of recommendation in Florida who wanted to do work in the Graduate School, but he was, necessarily, refused. Eight different states, besides Kansas, are representing the students in this department."
Prof. H, G. Ingham, secretary of the department, says that English is by far the most popular course. Education, mathematics, German, and the Romance Languages follow in the order named. Spanish I is popular.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
"The majority of the students enrolled in the Correspondence Study Department," said Professor Ingham, "are doing the work for credit, but they are not benefit only, and still others are taking the work because it will serve a practical, and immediate need. "For instance," he said, as he handed over a letter, "this man is leaving the farm to begin his business. He has had his high school work, but he needs some practical, business training. He has put his case up to us, and we are able to help him. Many graduate students apply for a continued Mr. Ingham, but work in the Graduate School is offered."
PROTECT CHILDREN
Health Speaker Says Proper Care Now Will Produce Stronger Race
"If the American people expect to be ready for a national crisis, they must come to a more significant realization of the need of proper care of the children and youth of the country." That was the keynote of an address given tonight to University of Kansas students at the tapestry of the Unitarian church by Dr. Lydia Allen DeVilbiss, director of the division of child hygiene of the Kansas State Board of Health, with orffices at Topeka.
"Our whole health problem must be solved through the child," said the speaker. "Kansas children today will be Kansas leaders in the next fifty years, and we are so excited to carry out the policies we have outlined and to pilot Kansas to a steady, progressive growth, we must give our attention to the child's health now. Anything that concerns the child, concerns everybody, and, by appeal to the public, one naturally appeals for the health of the whole community."
Dr. DeVibilis then explained that baby hygiene is not merely a matter of clean bottles and clothes, but concerns the child's care from the time he is born into this world until he is ready to take his place as a citizen of the country. She also mentions how she dresses in black these days. "Disease styles change as often as do fashion," she said, in conclusion. "The frail woman used to be attractive twenty years ago, but she is not now. She is merely a subject for laboratory equipment. In order that the future generation may be healthy and than their parents will be, she is necessary that the child today receive the best possible care. Many people object to the work on the grounds that a mother is more competent to take care of her child than anyone else. There is no question about that. But, if we can bring to that woman the experience of thousands of others that she would not be so sneered at. The all work in child hygiene of the country looks forward to a stronger race as a result of stronger mothers and fathers and more advantageous environment."

"Would somebody students
"I believe that a big club where all the men could gather would eliminate all friction. There it would make no difference whether a man was a barb or a Greek. They would all meet on common ground, and understanding and unity would come of their discussions in which every phase of college life would have a hearing."
As he pictured his ideal, sometimes vaguely, sometimes definitely, Mr. Bachelier puffed a ciner and his eyes flashed with enthusiasm alternately.
HOW DOES THIS SOUND?
"In this great commons, as you might call it, I would have billiard rooms, card rooms, a reading room and rooms for any enjoyable entertainment. Then, too, there should be a great hall where the students could hold their dances and entertainments; they would be able to stage their plays. A cuisine ought to be in the building to prepare lunches or banquets.
"But to be a success, my plan would have to be administered by a very good business man, assisted probably by a council of the ablest students in our country. The alumn really are the people to promote the plan and back it."

The following paragraph appeared on Son Seng's thought<sup>4</sup> column of the TOMS magazine.
"The reporter who wrote the story about "Pinky" Wingert for the evening paper did a good job of it and far be it from us to say that Pinky deserved any less than he got. The only trouble is that there is nothing left to say for George Washington and Abraham Lincoln."
The story referred to is the one that appeared in a recent issue of the Topeka State Journal and which he wrote to John S. Hancock in paper to go with the Associated Press and also spoke of "Pinky's" work as a newspaper man.
Wingert has been in the newspaper game for some time. He started on the Capitol when he was attending high school in Topeka. When he came to the University he acted as Lawrence correspondent

No Grades to be Given to Those Holding Out Football
Suits
"This matter of unreturned athletic material has become a serious matter," said Coach W. O. Hamilton this morning. "There are still fifty football suits that have not been turned in and this alone represents at least an outlay of a thousand dollars. We have up to this time been very loyal in this matter, and have issued suits on application; but we also believe that rules will be made for the future. This will mean that no one, not known personally at this office, will be issued a suit unless a deposit is made to cover the same.
This delinquency in returning football suits is due to gross carelessness on the part of the man who have them, and if they do not come in within the next day or two months of the Registrar, this means that the guilty ones will receive no credit for their work until the suits are returned.

THE MERCHANTS REGISTER
Many Kansas Towns Will Sen Delegates to Take Short Course February 7 to 11
*Advance registrations have been received, to date, from the following towns: Hunnewell Lawrence, Iola, Harrison Boulder, Valley, Hayle, Hawaii, Great Bend, Newton, Ottawa, Hillsboro, St. George, Conway Springs, Parsons, Norton, Concordia, Burlingame city, Emporia, Quenoem, St. John, and Horton.
"Advance registration indicates a much larger attendance at the Merchants' Short Course this year than last," said F. R. Hamilton, Director of the Extension Division, in speaking of the session to be held at the University February 7 to 11, inclusive.
The programs have been out just one week. Last year we had received less than one-fourth as many advance registrations when the programs had been out the same length of time."
HAMILTON STAGES SHOW
Hunnewell was the first town to register and this will be the first time this town has been represented. Other towns registering for the first time are Springs, Six way, Springs. Six registrations have come from Parsons.
This year's session will last five days. Those of previous years have been only three days in length. Some of those who have received leave have said it gives promise of a course even more interesting than last year's.
Puts on Farce With Slats Cole, Leading Man—K.U., 38; Washburn, 10.
"We are glad to have the new ones," said Mr. Hamilton, "because this shows the movement is spreading, but we are even more pleased to see the old ones re-registration." He adds that it is coming back to. It is an indication that they like what we have to give them."
The basketters must have forgotten that the Dramatic Club was going to put on a show last night for Cole's troupe staged a real force in the gym at the expense of the iabathabs. The team was found to be 38 to 10 after the final curtain.

Pausch replaced him and after making two personal fouls Lytle was sent to Pausch's rescue. Lytle managed to get two personal during the early parish event. His wife was given a trial. These four centers helped to make things lively.

Then there was the jinx—or whatever you call it. Every time a player would get the ball someone would knock it out of his hands. A mad scramble would ensue and another player would enter into the spirit of the occasion and a real force was staged to the delight of all except the scorers.
Both teams played poor ball all through the game. It seemed to be more guess work than team work but the Jayhawkers excelled the Topeakans in all departments of the game. During the first half Bally slipped one field goal through the ring while Nelly scored two goals. These were the only scores in the first half for the Ichabods. This half ended 15 to 4 for Kansas.
It would be a hard job to pick stairs out of the men who got into the jamboree last night. Kowder, who relieved Pattinson and Kennedy, helped get him past the gate. He got four goals from the field and five from the ten foot line in the ten minutes of the affair that he played. Gibben was also right on the free throw line and scored temps as well as four field goals. Nelson showed up best for the visitors. He played good at guard and scored one field goal and four free throws. However, he missed the majority of his chances at the free basket.
This was the final practice—game, rather for the Jayhawkers before they meet the Cornhuskers Friday night. Ten men will leave tonight for Lincoln with Coach Hamilton as chaperone. These ten have been playing in the games so far and have been chosen for this trip. They are apt. Cole, Kennedy, Appel, Kowar, Patinson, Wilson, Pausch, Kowar, and Wilbrush.

NOTES OF THE GAME
made it all the merrier for the onlookers.
Despite the ten below weather which had to be faced to get to the gym, 367 persons, including squads, coaches, band and spectators, crowded into the gym for the Washburn gambo. Some left early to get to the Dramatic Club show while others stayed to see the fun out.
Among the spectators were found sight dates and eight other women who did not have dates. Unless there was an error, the roll of the honor will not be printed.
The faculty was represented by Coach and Mrs. Herman P. Olcott and Prof. and Mrs. George E. Putnam. These two couples never miss a game regardless of the size of the game or condition of the weather.
At times in the second half it all became necessary to take time out while Hoover and the players stopped laughing. The crowd did not stop but the actors were confused when laughing too hard. This only
The cry "We want forty" was heard early in the second half but the reckless shooting and poor teamwork kept the score from reaching such proportions.
It took Washburn a long time to locate the basket in this game. The half was almost over when Nelson slipped in his first three throw making the score 12 to 1. It looked for a while as if the Ichabods would be held scorelever for the first half of the game.
Someone was heard to remark after the jamboree that if Kansas played the same kind of basketball against Nebraska that they played last night the score. Friday night would be so large that the Cornhuskers will have to borrow one of Hamilton's numerous adding machines.
According to the latest report last night $2.25 was taken in for reserved seats for the game. It might be added that this estimate is high.
McCanes had almost a full band out last night. The weather did not stop the band boys and they put out some first class music.
A report has it that Ross Keeling will not stay for the second term of school. Ross has played his last year of football but has this spring yet to serve on the track squad. He has had two seasons in the team, two years and will be missed this year. Possibly he can be prevailed upon to stay the rest of the year.
In the Missouri Valley Conference meet last spring Kansas took third in the mile run to Barker of Ames and Weaver of Manhattan. Weaver now is enrolled at K. U, and Coach Walter of the Ames basketball squad says that Barker does not expect to return the second semester. Makes things look rosy for Herriott and Sproull, doesn't it?
Ames loses two other good track men this year in Dickinson and Wilkinson. Dickinson pulled quite a few points for the Aggies in the confer-
cemet meet while Wilkinson worked in the pole vault. The latter did not show up extra weil because of the supply of polly vaulters in the Valley.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VOLUME XIII.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 14, 1916.
WHY WE ARE SO BUSY
Students Confess How They Pass Their Time Around Mount Oread
If there is one fact to which K. U. students will universally agree, it is that what they are busy about is a different matter. One could find someone who was the reporter who secured these interviews was instructed to hunt for someone who is attempting to present the average condition as nearly as it can be.
Believing that an honest confession is good for the soul several of the most prominent students at the University told the story of their daily grind.
It develops that life around K. U. is just about what one tries to make it, the most natural way of doing so.
Some shoot pool or play crib,
others read or go to the movies, but
all admit that they study for at
least a few hours each day.
This is what a junior, who is com-
pared with me, is as brilliant,
says about himself.
THIS ONE ALSO STUDIES—UNLESS
"Seven-thirty each morning finds me wading the snow from the sleeping porch to my room. I dress for school, eat a 'hot dog', some toast and coffee and hurry to the Hill. I have classes until 12:30 o'clock, and take half an hour for half an hour. My next move is to the Kansan office where I collect my wits for an editorial or two. Here I stay until my conscience is erased a little but generally be accomplish to the house where I study to the house where I discuss every day topics of conversation with my friends, read or study, depending upon assignments for the next day. After dinner I load a short time and then go to my room for the old girl to help me make a week I have appointments."
A sophomore who has had his name in print ever since basketball season opened and who gets one and two grades tells this.
"I get up just in time to eat and make an eight-thirty, after this class I have two hours in which to watch the game from playing pool to writing to my girl. Except for lunch hour I am on the Hill until 2:30 o'clock. I study until 6 o'clock unless there is a break or a light lunch. A light lunch I practice basketball until 9 o'clock. Then until twelve I study, play pool, or loaf depending upon how I feel. I never let any interfere with having a good time."
RENEFITS BY DISCUSSIONS
BENEFITS BY DISCUSSIONS
A senior Law leads a rather unusually sternuous life. This is his program:
"I am on the hill every morning until twelve-thirty. Then I eat lunch, read the morning papers and go to the library for reference work until six. After dinner read the newspaper, then study until I get my lessons. If I succeed in accomplishing this task before bed time I stir up some kind of an argument from which I usually receive much benefit. I'll admit I'm a grind during the week but every day I'm free and have a real vacation."
SHE DOESN'T STUDY AT NIGHT
A woman from the junior class, who is a candidate for Phi Beta Kappa, after being sincerely promoted, told the following story: "I get up at 6:30 o'clock breakfast and dress for school. The morning is spent on the Hill. I generally work in the library three hours during the afternoon. The rest of the day you go to the girls or read something light to rest my mind a little, then dress for dinner. Every evening I have an appointment. No it isn't a music lesson nor will I tell you for you may sign my name to this. After all, you're not going to can't study all night without looking like the dickens next day. Besides any one with any intellect at all can get their lessons in three or four hours if they apply themselves. Well you are welcome to that but if you aren't I'll never tell you any thing again."
A freshman who is just getting by in his studies has become very efficient at pool.
PADDLING DOESN'T HELP his GRADES
"Well, I do a little bit of everything except study. I go to classes most of the morning and then have a two-thirty every afternoon which just spoils the whole day as far as getting anything accomplished. I play cards or pool or go to a show with my girl because I am the only person here from her home town and she gets lonesome if I don't, you see. I stay until 8 or 9 o'clock and then go to the house and get some help on my math or write a theme—if I can't borrow one. I have had a paddling every day for flunking

out but I can't get started for some reason. The bunch can paddle me but I can beat any of them at pool."
EMBRYONIC HOUSEKEEPERS
VISIT IN KANSAS CITY
Miss Elizabeth Sprague, professor in the domestic science department, took her teachers' class in domestic science to Kansas City early this year. She went on a five day visiting and inspecting the domestic science laboratories of Westport and other high schools. They will also attend several demonstrations which will be given in their one of the big stores in Kansas City.
The purpose of this inspection tour is to get the students who expect to go out as teachers of domestic science, acquainted with the various methods and devices used in some of the leading schools of the state.
THE STUBBS BOYS AGAIN
Former Governor W. R. Stubbs dropped into the Daily Kansas office with a reply to the editorial, "The Stubbs Boys to Princeton." The reply appears in another column. He discussed his views of the country and his opinions were helpful because given in a helpful spirit.
Governor Stubbs thinks it unfortunate that the Associated Press story that his boys had entered Princeton. He says he took them cast to preparatory schools, and he went home to see what university they will enter.
He expressed regret, as does the Daily Kansas, that the impression might be gained from the editorial referred to that to the University or the Kansan depressor institution's work. The purpose of the editorial was not to deceive the service the University is rendering the state at large but to call attention to the fact that such work costs money and that a discussion of the comparative importance Princeton and Kansas should keep this fact in mind.
The Governor thinks that too much emphasis is paid to the money side of an institution. He believes that "men" and not "money" make a university. But "money" makes natural question as to how "men" could be obtained in these parliums without "money."
More discipline, both as to scholastic as well as social matters, the Governor thinks would be better for the University. The goodly number of missing from each semester's rolls might furnish some testimony as to the effect that a proportion of students during the past week, as to the efforts in behalf of the latter.
More scholastic discipline will come when more instructors are provided to take care of the more advanced students. Commons, dormitories, a Woman's Building, which he and the state have seen fit to deny the university, will do more than facetify a creating a better social condition.
The Daily Kansen, and students generally, like Governor Stubbs. They can i help it. He. It laugh that is infectious, a hand grip that spells friendship and sympathy, and is good company. They appreciate his work for higher education, of which the teacher himself is proud as they review his ten years of service to the state.
Oklahoma Has Ballroom
It hopes in all true spirit of loyalty to Kansas that when Lawrenceville, New Jersey, gets Roscoe Jr., prepared so that he may enter Princeton that K. U. will be provided with sufficient teachers, laboratories, libraries, dormitories, and other equipment that permit instruction to be able honestly to compete with the eastern institution for the matriculation of "Governor Stubbs" boys."
The Kansan did not single out him and his sons to make a horrible example. It could have chosen any one of the 1400 Kansan colleges to choose better equipped colleges and universities in other states. It merely siezed upon the Princeton incident as one to bring home forcefully to its readers the comparison of education offered Kansas boys and those offered the boys of other states.
University of Oklahoma will] have a new $15,000 building for a Varsity shop. The construction will be of reinforced concrete and will be begun in the spring. The building will have a floor space of 6000 square feet in two stories a new hamburgerery, shop, and a ballroom. The ballroom is to be used for any of the University's approved functions.

DISCOVERING O. HENRY
Witter Byner, poet and formerly associate editor of McClure's Magazine, talked to the members of "igma Delta Chi, journalism fraternity, for several hours last night about his experiences in the magazine game. Mr. Byner also discussed "of The Four Million," "Cabbages and Kings" and other stories. He has a wide personal acquaintance among writers and was bombeded with questions last night about O. Henry. Winston Churchill, Rex Beach, Ida Kemp, S. S. McClure, Harry Kemp, and popular writer of the past decades.
Byanner Tells How He Found the Author of "The Four Million"
Coming Events Cast Their Shadow
One day a story came in with the title "Tobin's Palm." Mr. Byrnew was favorably impressed with it and he suggested that it was an exceptional story. Several weeks passed and he heard nothing from it. When he traced the story through the office he found the author. He went to Mr. McClure.
Mr. Byner_was a reader on McLure's for a time. It was his duty to read manuscripts and pass the book to Miss Rosa Rosebowl, fiction editor,
"I sent up the best story that ever
came into the office and it has been
done."
"Well, what do you want to do about it?" Mr. McClure asker.
"I want to see that story in the magazine."
"If you are willing to stake your positions on it's merit, hunt up the fish."
Mr. Byrmer found the writer working in a small third floor room on the East side and bought the story. That made the beginning of O. Henry's career.
Nina Kanaga, an honor graduate of the University School of Fine Arts in 1915, will leave tomorrow for Chile to become supervisor in a Methodist girls' music school. She is an honor graduate of Lawrence high school and has been a member of the Kappa Kappa sororita and Mu Phi Unsilicon谷安娜。

K.N.G.INVITES THOMPSON
Captain Jones Wants President of Student Council to Join Company M
Leland Thompson, president of the Men's Student Council, who advocated the installation of compulsory drill in the University in an interview in the Daily Kansan several days ago, has been invited to join Company M, Kansas National Guards, by Captain F. E. Jones.
"I have just discharged about a dozen men," he said, "and can use the company to repair the company it will furnish him with valuable information about the desirability of drills. We are always glad to take men who are so much interested."
The minimum number of privates in Company M is 65, and while Captain Jones is able to keep this number, he is rarely able to exceed K.
"Personally, I am in of favor of drill," said Captain Jones, "but I am not certain that the students would prefer it to gym work. If extra companies were organized each student would have to buy his own uniform, as the state would not allow him to buy some arrangements were made by the Student Council for the purchase of uniforms."
Company M of the Kansas National Guard is whipping raw recruits into shape preparatory to the annual inspection by the United States war department on March 8. Capt. Robert A. Shankle, as assistant instructor for the Kansas National Guard. He must finish a tour of the state by March 31.

MR. STUBBS ANSWERS
Former Governor Says His Two Sons Are Not at Princeton
William Roscoe Stubbs, former governor of Kansas, visited the office of the Daily Kansan this morning, and turned in a reply to the editorial, "In his Princeton," which appeared in a recent issue.
University of Kansas
I wish to congratulate you on the clever editorial published last week on "The Stubbs Boys in Princeton." The fact that my son, Paul is attending a boys school at Howe, Indiana and will not enter college for two years, and the further fact that Roscoe is attending a boys school at Lawn, New Jersey, and does not know what he wants. For years, does not in any way mar the perfect piece of English produced by some master mind for the Kansan.
Also, permit me to express my appreciation of your kindness in giving me credit with utilizing the men and equipment of the University for the state testing and to develop the resources of the state for public benefit. You certainly give me too much credit, when you state in your article that "Largely at Governor Stubbs' demand the University must look once after one hundred and a hundred of the State, water testing, drug testing, community music, etc., etc."
I wish to thank you for resurrecting the veto where I reduced an appropriation of $80,000 to $40,000 for the maintenance of buildings and grounds. Dean Templin's sensational experience would have the "doors of the University would be opened" to the boys and girls of Kansas" should, in justice to Mr. Templlin, have been made a part of your story. The Dean, however, showed his usual good judgment and decided not to close the University after he learned that the reauthorization would be nearly double the maintenance fund of any other state institution.
I had almost forgotten to tell you that the poor buildings, and equipment, the poor professors and poor administration of the University of Wichita, had nothing whatever to do with the Stubbs boys going away from home to attend a school for boys where every hour of their time and every cent of spending money will be under the direct control of the management of the school.
W. R. Stubbs.

Published in the afternoon five times a week, by students of the University of Kansas, from the press of the Department of Journalism.
The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate education in Kansan so go further than they go forwards; more than printing the news by standalone media; more toys; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be careful; to be charitable; to be chaotic; to be more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to satisfy the students of the University.
FRIDAY, JANUARY 14. 1916
CALL IT BY ITS NAME
Double ignorance is where a man is ignorant that he is ignorant—Plato.
Students in the University who are indulging themselves in taking rubbers and raincoats and notebooks from the cloak rooms and halls may be glossing over the act to themselves by calling it borrowing, but it is not borrowing.
Complaints are becoming more and more frequent, until the only thing to do about it is to have action taken immediately.
It is plain stealing.
The fact that stealing exists in the University is deplorable. It is almost unbelievable that such a thing should exist in a University where students have money enough to attend school. But there is no use in lamenting the fact as deplorable and letting it rest at that.
The Daily Kansan suggests that the Student Councils take the matter under consideration, and appoint vigilance committees, or at least try in some way to put a stop to the petty thievery that is going on at present.
To steal a raincoat is just as much a crime as it is to steal a horse, and it is just as much the act of a thief.
And let the penalty be heavy enough to prevent the thief when caught from ever wanting to repeat his act again.
GIVE US AMMUNITION
While the legislature was in a deadlock last winter concerning the appropriations for education, a junior from the University of Kansas happened to ride in the same coach with his state representative. Leading up to the appropriation question the student found the congressman opposed to an increase in appropriation. But although the student was personally convinced that the University needed improvements, and told of the need in a general way, his knowledge of the University was so vague and incomplete that he could not launch a winning argument against the false economy advocate.
His torpedo tube was empty.
He did not know how K. U. ranked with other universities. He did not know what it cost Kansas to furnish him an education. He knew little about the budget and the expense of the state. He knew the University needed improvements but the representative said that many of the farmers needed new barns or new corrubribs, or new houses, much worse.
Now if K. U. had received the amount asked for, the farmer who needed new barns would have had a few cents less to buy them with, because of increased taxes. How many students could have shown conclusively to the legislator that these few cents invested in the University would have brought him greater returns in wealth than if he had put them into a barn? How many students know what the University does for Kansas
Could not the suggested course on college traditions include those things which not only give the student a feeling of love and loyalty for his University but also acquaint him with the reason for its support by the state?
and what it costs?
PLEASANT SEASONING
When one week brings such varied lectures, concerts and exhibitions of student activities as the lecture of Irving Bacheller, the concert of Oscar Seagle, the concert of the Hawaiian Orchestra, the basketball game with Washburn and a production by our University Dramatic Club, we begin to realize that we do enjoy some advantages even if we have to sit in small, crowded classrooms.
We see new horizons while listening to someone who has seen life with a vision kindly keen; add something finer to our lives by hearing a man who has such talent that he can lift us above the common routine of life; and increase our college spirit by seeing productions of our student activities.
If variety is the spice of life, we have enough seasoning this week to give a pleasant flavor to college existence.
SIGN THAT COMMUNICATION
SIGN THAT COMMUNICATIONS have come to the Daily Kansan both through the mail and through the communication boxes. As is stated at the head of the Campus Opinion column, no communications will be printed which are not signed with the name of the writer. The name of the writer is only an indication of good faith and will not be printed unless it is desired.
The Kanan is glad to print all communications within the bounds of decency from both the faculty and student body, whether that communication is in accord with the beliefs and policy of the paper or not. It urges the members of the University to express their ideas through its columns.
But the Kansan will not print unsigned communications.
Freshmen are hereby warned that they must not turn in to their instructors any literary compositions beyond the range of the ability of the senior class. Any violation of this rule will be considered a deliberate attempt to embarrass the dignified fourth year students.
The more we see of this weather, the less we think of compulsory drill. It is estimated that the weight of an army rifle increases during drill in direct proportion as the cube of its length.
There are several students from sunny California on our ice-coated, snow-drifted little "Hill," who have been practicing "There's no place like home."
FOUND IN A BOOK
Now books of this kind have been written in all ages—have you measured and mapped out this short life and its possibilities? Do you know, if you read this, that you cannot read that—that what is important tomorrow? Will you roe and gossip with your housemaid, or your stable-boy, when you may talk with queens and kings; or flatter yourself that it is with any worthy consciousness of your own claim to respect. When you may talk with common crowd for entree here, and audience there, when all the while this eterna! court is open to you, with its society, wide an the world, multitudinous as its days, the chosen and the mighty, of every nation, and the common man always; in that you may take fellowship and rank according to your wish; from that, once entered into it, you can never be an outcast but by your own fault; by your aristocracy of companionship, which you will be assuredly tested, and the motives with which you strive to take high place in the society of the living, measured, as to all the truth and sincerity that are in them, by the place you desire to take in this company of the Rasuk.

Editor of the Daily Kansan.
The extent of plain airway reached here in theiversity has become sopeat that it seems to me that some drastic action should be curt it. Last Monday I bought a pair of rubbers. Tuesday night I wore them to Spooner library and left them in the cloak room. When I came for them at 10 o'clock they were gone—stolen.
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
And this is not the worst of the matter. In the three years I have spent at the University I have lost—had stolen—from this same cloak room, the following books, raincoat books, two text one hat and one umbrella. Possibly some cynic will say that I should have known better than to leave anything in the cloak room. To him I say what shall one do with one's wraps? One does not care to wear rubber gloves. One doesn't leave them in the cloak room where is one to place them?
It seems to me that it is high time that some means was devised of stopping these outrages. We have thieves here in the University, there is no doubt of it, for losses are heard of nearly every day. Carned the treasure by someone or whoever the power, come forth with some means of remedying this condition? I am in favor of finding the culprits and expelling them from school. If the student body, as a whole, will report all thefts to the Kansan so that they can be given penalty points for stealing, who doing the stealing, honesty can be forced upon the thieves or they can be ex- enployed from school.
THE QUESTION BOX
M. W. Vaughn.
Our columns are not long enough to permit of the policy you mention. Please don't worry.
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Editor of the issue, Mr. Bauer.
In this issue, your paper Tuesday was a story headed, "Too Deep For Seniors." Please instruct your head-writers not to fall in with a story to such an extent that they let their personal views in the manuscript carry over. That would be offensive to me because I thought it unlustful.
world is more and more.

It reserves the right to do work about coins, stamps or historical data that you may not know. Questions concerning the vital problems and questions concerning the vital problems are offered to the experts in this department.
But, that is not the main point Professor Percy B. Shostac announces definitely that he is going to keep on giving such subjects as "Intellectual Curiosity." Well, that may be his business and it may not. He says people learn by writing and that he learn to think writing and agree with him there. But when he goes to the extreme point of kidding himself into supposing that he is conducting a course in universal knowledge under the catalogue name of "Rhetoric I," I think he needs a bit in his mind and the university authorities at the end of the line. He goes too far, but we need to learn to write by writing. I grant that. The purpose of a course in rhetoric is to give one greater ease in writing. Although such a subject as "What the University Should Give Students for Winning in Debates" is probably not as thought-provoking as "Independent Curiosity," it more feasible and in better productions from the students. The energy of the freshman rhetorician should not be spent in thinking about what he is going to write so much as about how he is going to write it. Professor Shostac should consult a few authorities on the subject he is teaching and to confirm his own field. Personal interviews with some of the students might reveal some enlightening opinions of the kind of subjects he hands out.
I have heard a rumor that the Kansas is thinking of printing the names of all students who are late to class, as a supplement to their policy of printing the names of professors who hold their classes over time. If this is so, please use the enclosed stamped envelope to notify me of the fact. I am of a retiring nature, and do not seek publicity.

Woman Couldn't Play Piano in Men's Gym—Overalls the Remedy?
Why Not a K. U. Dairy?
"You see, it all began like this"
smiled Dr. Goetz. "When I came to K. U. a year ago, we had no piano on the women's side of the gymnasium. But the men had one which had been purchased by the departing artist. The piano was an antique curiosity when I came here.
Have you seen it? That new piano in the gymnasium!
"Well, I took that piano! We used it in this department all last year. Then, in the very dead of the night, Mr. H. A. Lorenz would surreptiously sneak about in the darkness and patiently drag that piano back. We fought over that piano all year."
Finally, unable to endure the appealing note which the ancient instrument sent wailing through the gymnasium, the women's departure pianist, was to play piano of their own and the dear old piano has been returned to the men.
"The joke of it is," said Dr. Goetz, "now that the men have the piano, they have no pianist. Mr. Lorenza insists on a woman pianist, and our pianist fled in terror at the wide expanse of pink arms and legs and dimpled knees which greeted her at her entrance."
It seems as though either overalls for the men's gymnasium classes, or smoked glasses for the pianist, are in order.
FOUR ENTER CONTEST
University Has Aspirants in Oratory; One to Represent the Jayhawk
The University will enter the State Peace Oratorical Contest to be held this winter. Four men, the number required by the constitution for local contests, have signified their intention of taking part in the local affairs. The winner of the contests will be in twelve schools of the State will send their orations to the state secretary and three faculty men from out of the State will select six orations to be given in the State contest held at Ottawa. Prizes of seventy-five and fifty dollars will be given to the two schools of the State will then be selected to represent the State in the western division, of which the following states are members: Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado, South Dakota, and Kansas. The winner of the western division will go to Lake Mohawk, a Annual Year Peace Conference. The State Oratorical Contest is affiliated with the other organizations in the United States working in the interest of peace and arbitration.
"The value of butter-milk as a bacteria-cide is rapidly gaining recognition," said Dean L. E. Sayre, a professor in the morning, "Many diseases are caused by bacteria infecting the intestinal tract and on account of a certain acid which it contains in its cells that is able to antiseptic with excellent results.
BUTTER-MILK WOULD BENEFIT STUDENTS
"But one peculiar characteristic of all states, is the fact that they are continually demanding more students willing to pay for. Why here at the University, we are very often called upon to make investigations and analyses that would be rejected, at adults," continued the Dean.
"The food analysis laboratories of the University, which the State demands so much of, would be more likely to deliver data here. Analysis of dairy products could be made with the purpose of raising the standard of these commodities throughout the State, which could have a great influence on public health."
According to authorities, the cost of establishing a dairy would be small and the value to the students and the University very great. Once established, they claim, a dairy would be self-supporting and the maintenance of it would give employment to many students.

QUIZ WOMEN GYMNASTS
Beginning Monday, Students Will Perform Stunts for Grade
Women's freshman gymnastium classes will be examined in gymnastic work on Monday, January the 17th. Any who are compelled to be absent at this time may take an examination Thursday at 4:30 o'clock.
On these two days the freshman women will perform as they have never performed before. Indian clubs will be swung with incredible swiftness. Each woman will strain her ears in listening for, and her muscles in answering to the signals of the instructor. The grade of the semester will depend on this examination. A pass will allow a student to but what that passing grade shall be is determined by this examination in gymnastic exercises.
On Wednesday and Friday of next week, freshmen women will do their bandaging work for credit in hygiene. Yards and yards of medicated gauze will be used in binding up imaginary uts, burns and sprains.
The sophomore classes will be examined Tuesday, the 18th. Those absent at this time may be examined on Thursday the 20th.

WEVE A SPLEENDID ASSORTMENT TO CHOOSE FROM
STIMPSON UNCOVERS
DEFECTIVE WEIGHTS
Prof. E. F. Stimpson, deputy sealer of weights and measures, was called down to Ottawa Friday afternoon to test the wagon scales there which have been the cause of much complaint recently. In fact, the complaints became so numerous that the clerk and commissioner of Franklin county, in which Ottawa is located, finally subscribed the necessary funds to have Professor Stimpson come down and give the scales a thorough test.
Professor Stimpson reports that he is often called upon to make these trips, although the state law requires that each county keep a complete set of testing weights and do their own scale adjusting law, however, is but lightly compiled with, as it shows, the fact that only about twenty counties out of 100 have provided themselves with the required apparatus. Professor Stimpson says that he has found as many as six out of eight wagon scales in a county to be defective.
Last year, Brown county required the services of the state sealer, but this year they have decided that it is more convenient to own their own test weights, and they now have a complete set of them in Professor Stimpson's office awaiting inspection.

The week has been broken up for the Kansans and no regular practices could be staged. Monday was the only time the Varsity had the control of the gym for practice. Tuesday was the victim wear night. Tuesday night signal practice was held on the Haskell court. Wednesday night Washburn offered them a good practice game and last night they left for New York to play tomorrow will guidance be of the same class as the Ames games last week.
LINEUP STILL IN AIR
Hamilton ten took men with him for use in the two games and as has been the case so far this season, he does not know who will get the fracas, Kowler, playing his first. Varsity game Winnings night, showed good form and proved the point winner of the game. He will be given a chance to score a few on the Cornhuskers tonight. The probable lineup for the opening game will be the same as that which started the home games.
Nebraska has three veterans on its team this year and the reports are that they have hit their stride afresh. It will be a case of the mudget Kansans facing Rutherford, Shields and other football players of such size whom the northern coaches place on their team.
LINEUP STILL IN AIR
No guess on the outcome would be offered by Coach Hamilton before he left yesterday. His only remark was to the effect that Kamaru Singh would, "should I win, but if they 'went up in the air' he did not know what would happen.
CHRISTIANITY SOCIALIZED
The Better Elements of All Ancient Religions, Says Wilcox
That Christianity is a cosmopolitan religion and owed much of its breadth to ancient Greek thought is the opinion of A. M. Wileos, professor of Greek in the University of Michigan, that Christianity is becoming thoroughly socialized, and that in so doing it works back to the Greek philosophy of life.
In Christianity we find represented the water worship of Egypt, the earth cult of the Phrygians, the air worship of Syria and the fire worship of Babylon. The baptismal organism were transferred to or rather transformed into the Christian religion. The Greeks conceived of the possibility of purification or purging of the soul and the hope of immortality. The Christian was a public duty to a personal obligation. All of these things are vital parts of Christianity today.
Christianity, he says, did not spring. Minerva like, full blown from the heart of ancient Judah. It is not a account of wisdom but a account of beliefs. In this evolution other religions have played no small part.
After the first stage of Caesarism and the fall of the republic, the state religion of Rome declined. Then, owing to economic and commercial relations of Rome with the east and west, other religions gained a foothold.
The Zoellner String Quartet played Professor Skilton's new Indian Dances for the first time on New Years' Eve at Boston, before the Harvard Musical Association. Professor Hamilton Macdougall, head of the music department at Wellesley College, was present and wrote about them to Professor Skilton as follows:
Before the recognition of Christianity, Christianity and the state religion of Rome, swept along side by side; and in spite of all the opposition, they were rarely the same moral, and intellectual plane.
"The Zoellners played your two quartets to about 250 people, ladies and gentlemen well known in musical and college circles—a fine audience and a representative one. The event were very well attended the second one even better than the first; I was inclined to like the first one better, but very likely the popular verdict was the juster one. At any rate you have made me feel good and colored. I hope they will be played everywhere, I congratulate you warmly on them."

[If We Consents We Will Have a K. C, A. C. Track Meet
IT IS UP TO DR. REILLY
Soon
If Dr. J. A. Reilly says yes, the Jayhawkers will meet the Kansas City Athletic Club in track the first week of the second semester. On his way to Lincoln for the Corinthians basketball games, he will play in Kansas City a few hours in advance of the squand to see if he could schedule the event.
In case he does not get the meet with the Kannas Citians he will schedule one with Washburn or Bill Hargis' Eporia Normalorms. The team has had to have been taken to get either school until Reilly shall accept or refuse.
CHANCE FOR NEW MEN
With a track meet only two weeks off the prospects for track do not boom up as bright as they would for a meet at a later date. So far the tracksters have not trained down to regular form for their events and they will have a hard time getting into good shape in the two remaining weeks to land berths on the squad was never quite as good as it is at the present time.
The pole vaulters have been handicapped of late by lack of a large mat to light on. A new mat had to be ordered but it has not arrived and the vaulters can do little until it arrives. The vaulters have been regular but so far have not shown any great form or made any records in their events.
The distances and middle-distances are sought after more than the field events. Some twenty runners workout every afternoon and some good players have a present outlook of this section of the squad shows that no man that has run this year or last is near sure of his place. Few novices are out in spite of the unusual opportunity they have in this department of athletics.
The lack of pep among the track men has caused Coach Patterson considerable worry of late. He has made every effort to get out the old and new men and keep them at work but has been the great success up to the present time.
WHERE'S THE PEP?
"I do not understand the attitude these men take in regard to track," said Coach Patterson last night. "If a track man is to make a success of his work he has to enter it with all his heart and work steady. This business of working twice a week does not do much good. An indifferent attitude is very detrimental to the team's success.
"We need more men out for track without a doubt. If any student knows of anyone in the University who can do the least thing in the line up, he should try to truss him best to make the squad, he should report the man to either Hamilton or me. We will look him up and try to get him out for practice. It is up to the students to get the track scars "job."

The work will start with a basketball league, in which the players will use a football instead of a basketball. This, the coach belongs, will enable the players to handle the award pass with more safety new falls.

"POETRY IS OF LIFE'
Witter Bynner Says it Springs From the Experience of the Common People
DISTORTED BY ESTHETES
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 17, 1916.
Life, not words, makes poetry. Without the vital core of reality, poetry is as tinkling cymbal or sounding brass. Such a conception Witter Bynmer holds of his chosen art.
"Poetry is one of the most fundamental modes of expression," he said this morning. "It *springs up early in the life of people*. It is the way youth expresses the strange emotions that can grow toward life. Dozens of poems are written to one story as any editor will acknowledge. When a great idea grips a person, he *writes a poem*. It may be a poor poem, but it is poetry nevertheless. Poetry is often the result of becoming divorced from the stream of reality. It may be distorted, and corrupted by one group or another, but ultimately it is brought back into its normal connection with life.
As a preface to his reading of
"Baker's Book," Barker wrote:
"bwownsw work JINGWANG."
"According to Oliver Wendell Holmes, it took American poetry one hundred years to get rid of the skylark and the nightingale. So it has taken English-speaking poets some three hundred years to get rid of the Elizabethan language. It was a language so honey-golden that it has beguiled poet after poet to ex-history but in its own first hand terms but in the terms, second-hand to him, of the Sixteenth century, to put off the clothes of the living and strut in the finery of the dead. The inevitable resulted. Poetry became a masquerade of dilettant, a celebration losing its hold on the people because it did not represent them; they represented and spring representatively from the people of the time of Shakespeare."
"Granville Barker says that of arts, drama comes nearest to the people, springs most naturally and intimately and is great in proportion to them. He would of course include pop culture, Mr. Barker shows how the greatest popular drama that flowered in Shakespeare was killed by the Puritans and how the Restoration paints how form the drama return to England; as he hobbled growth cultivated by the ecstatic and society, not a big natural expression. He finally says that in Victorian literature the great writers tried to go to stage as a medium of life. The English drama was still the Elizabethan drama. And so Browning and Tennison wrote pinchbeck Elizabethan drama. And so, until very recently, English and American paper on writing Victorian drama, that the Elizabethan drama in cold storage."
KIPLING RESTORED POETRY
KIPLING RESTORED POETRY
Mr. Bynner says that poetry is always in danger of being distorted by esthetics who regard poetry only as a clever arrangement of beautiful words.
Poetry was in this state in the last decade of the nineteenth century until Kiplinger began to turn it back into the stream of life. Masefield, Noyes, and Service especially have made poetry real again.

or Lawrence, has been appointed a
member of the Alumni Board of
Visitors to fill the vacancy caused
resignation of T. H. Chalkley,
Hatchinson, Jr., of Hutchinson,
is another newly appointed member.
The Board will hold a meeting at the University next month.
In his own poetry, Mr. Byner is trying to express his ideas of life. The New World, "his Phi Beta Kappa," describes the Little King, "all contain a message that is more or less concealed. And that is why Percy Mackaye and that is why Percy in "The New World," touches the man of the beauty that is democracy."
Tomorrow afternoon Mr. Bynner gives his version of *Euripedes*'s *Writemia* in Taurtas, as it was written by Dunin. During the reading will be given in Frasier chapel at 4:30 o'clock. Wednesday night Mr. Bynner will read the same drama from Kansas City, Mo., under the auspices of Women's Political Equality League.
MOVIES IN CHAPEL IS
LATEST INNOVATION
Education by motion pictures is the latest in teaching at the University. A projecting machine has been ordered and will be installed in Fraser Chapel as a permanent piece of equipment.
The new machine will be used during the merchants' short course to be given this winter, but after that the extension division and the various departments who have films used in their work will have the use of it.
The University extension division is already the possessor of about thirty films on various subjects. They are being used by various classes and for lecture purposes out over the state.
FOOTBALL DRAWS WELL
Receipts for Past Season Show Profit of More Than $12,000 for Gridiron Sport
HUSKERS BROUGHT MOST
Collections at That Game Were $16,000—Average Amount More Than $3,500
If the four major sports in which Kansas figures so strongly were an successful financially as the past foot ball season has been, Manager Hamilton could afford to build a new "bowel," which would allow other things which would make things comfortable for the athletes. Former athletes and those of rival institutions could be taken care of and the Var-vests could have a real place for training.
But the trouble comes in with the expense of the other sports. While football in 1915 made $12,178.65, basketball, baseball and track will draw heavily on this and allow the athletic association very little profit for the year's work. The recent reorganization shows that $90,954.48 was taken in during the season. The total expenses during this time were $18,674.23 which left the association with a neat little purse on hand.
The game with the Cördhuske's brought in the most cash to the Kawasaki soffers. The $16,677.57 received by the team from Missouri gaffe came angered from the first game of the season, that with William Jewell, made the greatest showing in gate receipts with only two games with Oklahoma, Nebraska and Missouri—were the only ones to surprise the thousand dollar mark.
The following is the financial report for the 1915 football season.
The average receipts for each game would be over 35,500. No attempt is made to athletic association to figure the net of the equipment because the equipment and other items to be affixed to the expenses of the whole season and cannot be charged in certain game. The average would be very Indefinite and uncertain figure.

The new location of the University post office in Fraser has proved beneficial beyond doubt. It now has a special window all of its own in which it has done away with the student's desk, and crowd in front of the small space in the Registrar's office. The new window has a neat design over so that it may be easily located. Registrar Believes that a great improvement to the handling of Uncle Sam's business has been made by this new step.

But Would Enlist in K. N. G. If This Were Not His Last
Year
"I would join the K. N. G, if this were not my last year in the University," said Tommy Thompson, president of the Men's Student Council, in reference to his visit Friday by Capt. F. E. James to join Company M, Kansas Nation, contend, however, that it would be excellent training in many ways for the freshman and sophomores.
"No, I am not blood-thirsty or ever war-face, but really believe the plan of drill worthy of some consideration. The faculty is apparently against it as well as the student body, but never other schools find it feasible to sit at their own school and offer another system. Good carriage, pain and discipline received from military training is certainly worth the effort and time of the student and besides trains him for service as a soldier. I think that the invitation from Captain Jones was suggested by some one course that it was a good joke "In taking a course you are compulsory training for the two lower classes. I did not intend to convey the idea that drill work was to take the place entirely of gymnastics work. Both could be combined to good advantage, and the benefits of both might be had. The development of a rounded character training bodily development and poise seems to be strong points in favor of this pre-production system. The spirit of democracy that we have so long sought in the schools would be greatly advanced and the matter of a system of discipline which would not necessarily seem on the oppoison would have a good effect even on the oppoison. It seems to me that it offers a good opportunity well founded system of student body control, which was voted a failure.
The University Y. W. C. A. will celebrate the anniversary of the foundation of the organization next month. The secretary, Miss Anne the cabinet and faculties members of the planning for the coming Jubilee. It is hoped that these events will increase the interest of the women of the University in the work of the university which will have finished its fifth year of usefulness and service to the women of the world next month.

A NATION IN MISERY
Expatriated Armenian, Homeless, Without Foam, Shelter or Medicine, Face Death
PEOPLE ARE STARVING
250,000 Armenians Flee From Horres of Turkish Persecution
A. vivid portrayal of the revolting harrors accompanying the flight of hundreds of thousands of Armenians from Turkish persecution is furnished in letters received by Prof. H. A. Mills, of the department of economics, from Prof. Leon Arzrooji of the University of Missouri. Arzrooji is a native Armenian, and a former student at Stanford. The letters come from the scene of the persecution, and are translated by Arzrooji.
The first is from southern Caucasia, in Russia, where a quarter of a million refugees have fled from the Turks, leaving all they possess behind. The Russians are doing all they can to alleviate the terrible misery, the suffering, the tortured, and the need for outside help is imperative. Here is the letter:
FOUR DOCTORS ATTEND 3.000
RECORDS ATTEND 3,000 "The entire population is facing starvation, and if no help comes it is too much to ask that the slaughter which will result from lack of food and shelter will probably equal that perpetrated by the murderous Turks. Women who have lost their husbands, children who have lost both parents, are held in the clutches of an agonizing starvation.
"The winter is coming on and our needs are multiplying a hundredfold. At least bread and clothing are necessary if we are to be kept alive. This is not all; our need for medical aid is no less pressing. Three thousand sick with only one of the villages are sick with only four, so to attend them. The epidemic is on its way seems to be no hope of stopping it unless medical aid can reach us soon."
SYSTEMATIC DEPORTATION
Another letter, written by an American professor in the American college at Marsoosan describes the systematic methods employed by the Moslems in their work of destruction. An extract follows:
"Having destroyed the most courageous and influential men of the city, late in June it was announced through all news that all the buildings and houses of the city were to be vacated within three days according to imperial decree. However, not even three days were spent by people to prepare for their journey of 100 miles, and start the very next morning. This exile and deportation continued throughout the month of July until finally the single Armenian living within a radio station."
"In the course of the flight the males and females were separated, the families broken up, all the young women enslaved, and the young men murdered. Hundreds of cities containing any considerable number of Armenians can repeat this tragic story."

Football Heroes
GIBBEN STARS FOR K. U.
Men
Little Forward Shows up Well Against the Heavier N. U.
In spite of these facts the games were not characterized by roughness. the force of the Nebraskans showed an overwhelming out but in unnecessary roughness. the Kansans were not fast enough to set around the football veterans and not nearly strong enough to go through the northerners and their own way.
The K, U, midgel basketball five which journeyed to Lincoln got the short end of the score in the games on both Friday and Saturday nights. It turned out to be a matter of the grapes with the grapes from the small Jay-hawkers. With such men as Rutherford, Shields and Gardiner, who figured strongly in print this fall after the grewsome McCook Field game, in the line-up, Gibben and the other players not get near the opponent's basket.
FIRST GAME CLOSE
The first game was anybody's game up to the final whistle when Nebraska had 34 and Kansas held 23. Gibben had thrown a basket in the final minutes of the game, which if allowed would have put Kansas in the lead. Referee Lowman claimed that Gibben was out of bounds when the goal was made. When it was Gibben's protest did not clear Lowman and a foul was called which gave the Cornhuskers their one point lead and saved the game for them.
The second game was more of an exhibition of brute force, than was the first. The football team was in the same form they showed on November 18 and the score showed the effects. 40 to 27 was the final count of this game in spite of the good Kansas team work and good playing.
K. U. TEAM HITS STRIDE
The Kansas squad showed up much better than they did in the opening games of the season on the home court. In fact, they seem to have hit their stride and Coach Hamilton expects them to show regular championship speed from now on. The small-and inconvenience of the Nebraska made it hard for the Kansas men for those we were not used to such playing quarters. In the past years, Hamilton's best squad have had hard times beating the Cornhuskers on their little court so it was not unexpected that this year's group of novices should make a rather poor showing.
AGGIES COME THIS WEEK
During the early part of this week Hamilton expects to rest, Captain Cole, Gibben and some others who have been working hard of late, so that he can get more of his men in condition. The Kansas Aggies come this week and will put up a stronger team than they have in past years. However Coach Hamilton expects his men to be in good shape by Thursday night and if they play as he expects them to, after their Nebraska showing, a couple will be added to the Kansas collection. Anyway there will be a couple of hard training away and Friday nights and Kansas has a good chance to win both of them.
NOTES OF THE GAM3
The Nebraska games would have been good ones for Reber and Heath to have played. This would have given them a final chance to stop the end runs of Rutherford and Gardiner and to "hit the line" against Shields. As it was, though, Kansas did not have a man on the squad heavy enough to make a line man on a football squad.
The small Lincoln court proved a handicap for the Kansas men. Former Kansas teams could beat Nebraska on the Robinson court but their own court. There always wins on their own court. There may not be any advantage in playing on your home court but in this case the advantage is great.
Lowman's Aggie squad was the only team that defeated Kansas last year on the indoor court and the last was for only one game when the Kansas team had the smallpox. This year they are looking for four straight victories. If the Kansans play as well against the Lowmanites as they did against Nebraska the result may not be four straight Aggie victories.
The Agric games this week will be the Kanaans' last performance for the californians followers 'they tour the "owen" team and the squad will leave a week from Wednesay to two games with Missouri at Columbia and two with Washington at St. Louis.
Announcement has reached the registrar's office of two fellowships at Wellesley College.

WITHOUT PURPOSE
When a freshman in the University of Pennsylvania was crushed to death in the annual "bowl fight" the other day, it was only another case of a life unnecessarily blotted out for no purpose.
Fortunately the University of Kansas has abolished such primitive means of instilling spirit and manhood into their students. Theodore Roosevelt would probably say that while it is deplorable, still it was not without gain that one should have to pay the price for the good of the majority.
This might be true if there were no other means of arousing spirit and courage and all the other characteristics that go to make up a well-balanced man, but when other means do exist, the price of a life is too great a price to pay.
He died touching the bowl, and to touch the bowl is the greatest honor that can come to a freshman in the opinion of the undergraduate of the University.
In an excess of sentiment someone may say that to have achieved what he was fighting for is gain enough. This is a beautiful, idealistic statement.
To gain what we are fighting for is the purpose of fighting, but what is the benefit of dying for something that can never be of value to the world or anyone in it?
A life is too precious a thing to be thrown away merely to afford someone inspiration for a great work on heroism.
HOLLOW FORMS
Forms have a habit of outliving their usefulness. Like ghosts of forgotten purpose, they linger long after the function of which they formerly were the manifestation has ceased to exist. One of these shades of former usefulness which is casting a shadow over the educational world of today is the classical entrance requirements to which certain colleges and universities are still clinging.
The purpose of an educational institution is radically different today from what it was yesterday. Instead of being a polished lathe for a few select individuals—sons and daughters of the elite—the modern school system is a gristmill through which humanity must pass. And its function is to provide a course of training which will fit this humanity to meet life in its various phases.
This does not mean that the process must exclude all that has a tendency to polish. A knowledge of the principles and technique of art and music, and the structural principles of language which are to be found in Latin and Greek, not only increase a man's ability to enjoy life but sharpen his analytical faculties. They make him more sensitive to his environment.
more capable of associating with his fellows. They give a delightful flavor to his makeup.
But it must be kept in mind that the classical studies are simply a flavor. They are not and cannot be the foundation of a useful education. And colleges whose entrance requirements demand years of Latin and Greek—and there are large institutions in this country still having such requirements—are deliberately trying to preserve a form which has long since passed its usefulness.
THEY DON'T EXIST
Kansas hasn't had any blizzards since a well-qualified and efficient press-agent eliminated them.
press-agent eliminated them.
It is the tendency of peoples as they become more and more removed from the pioneer stage to break away from harsher terms. "Killings" become homicides; fights are struggles or encounters; "hold-ups" survive under the name of 'robberies; drunkards come to be known as inebriates; and so on through the list. The harsh phraseology is toned down in harmony with this general trend, and, accordingly, Kansas has no more blizards.
Our dictionary tells us a blizzard is a dry, cold, violent storm, with high wind and fine driving snow. Under the influence of the finer concepts of a more refined people the high wind is no doubt a breeze; the fine driving snow a "durry"; and by combination, what we recently experienced was undoubtedly merely a cold wave with a light breeze from the north and a dash of snow.
Yes, Kansas has cold waves, but blizzards—oh, no!

CONCENTRATED PATRIOTISM Patriotism, according to Nicholas Murray Butler, Columbia University, has no limit in its relation to the humdrum, every day mode of life. The university or college may be stimulative or productive of this personal quality in its effect on the student.
In a recent address, given before the Newport Historical Society, he said:
"If a man or woman is to rise to a true appreciation of patriotism and wishes to be a real patriot then he or she must reflect upon the purpose of organized community life.
"Instead of rhetoric, a patriot need philosophy; instead of noisy and tumultuous expression of high feeling, he needs serious purpose, insight into the significance of his own community, a knowledge of its history, of its great personalities, of its policies, of its achievements, and above all a knowledge of its aim. He must ask himself not only, "From what origin and by what steps has it come?" but more insistently and more emphatically, "Toward what end and toward what purpose is it moving? What is the reason of it all?"

In all fairness to those professors who are possessed with a sense of honesty and reason and in fairness to the student body, this unreasonableness is not pardonable about how students play and fair play as students' student body; I wonder why we couldn't get up a "fair play" section for the faculty.

Why not a course in spelling on the Hill? Or an old fashioned spelling school now and then?
Eighty per cent of the freshmen at the University of Colorado are compelled to study this necessary adjunct to daily life. I do not know whether the students there spell any words, but than they go out but after associating with K. U people a year and a half I cannot see how they could. Furthermore, the epidemic of poor spelling seems to be general.

To what do such conditions lead? Unfortunately for some of our reasonable professors, it has been decreed that a day has only twenty-four hours. Now to take an average day made up of classes from 8:30 to 12:30 A. M. and from 1:30 to 4:30 P. M. or seven hours. Hill, one hour each, with three hours for study, six hours for sleep, the hoold to catch your breath, we have left a grand total of six and a half hours for study and report writing. Sometimes by working Saturdays and Sundays, we are able to keep within hailing distance of our classes and professors. The time left for study should theoretically be divided proportionally to the different classes according to the credit given us, but because of reasonabler or at least limited idea of their own importance, a few professors get most of the time on their own courses and the others take what they can get.
author of the Daily Kansan!
In the University of Kansas, a number of professors appear deluted into some initial hallucination that we believe to believe that these courses are the only ones of any importance offered in the curriculum, at least such is the impression we receive when their assignments are given to us; but I, as one of the student body, where such learning is execlusively a professor gives in a two hour course, work requiring more time than the ordinary five hour course, I consider that overstepping the bounds of fairness and justice. When a professor requires for a one hour course a four hour course book, a three dollar lab, fee, preparation of a preliminary report of each experiment requiring not less than two hours outside of class time, at least three hours per week in laboratory, and then a final two hours outside of time, the preparation of such takes from two to six hours, is that reasonable? If it is, I certainly have a perverted idea of reasonableness. The Christmas holiday supposedly began the evening of Friday, Dec. 17, 1915, but that time in two classes there were given outside of class time which we were asked to work on during Christmas holiday. Holiday????! Well, supposedly a holiday, but apparently a good excuse for some professors to get some extra work done. One of the assignments I mention, with an extra minute or two of exercise, the other, two preliminary reports for electrical laboratory. Queer ideas some professors have of holidays.
A class meeting, say, once a week and open to all the university might accomplish much in the way of correcting this detail of our written work. No credit need be given, but some form of recognition for increased interest in this line would be to keep interest alive. Let's get behind and fit anything can be started to help out this great need.

Exhibit Sent From Tulane
University Seems to be
Missing
The question of the whereabouts of the 160 etchings for the exhibit that was to have taken place in the museum at the month of July becomes a puzzling one to Prof. W. A. Griffith. The exhibition which was in New, Orleans at Tulane University during the latter part of the year, has been on here by January first.
"The pictures are supposed to be here now and I have no idea where they can be," said Professor Griffith yesterday. "I am very interested in the secretary of the Society of Etchers asking me to send to Chicago a certain etching in the group. The picture is by an American living in Europe and is wanted for a magazine article on Etching. It is the only one in the collection made by this artist. The exhibit may be expected by express at any time."
The date of the art exhibit has been definitely set for the last week of February and the first two weeks of March. The paintings are at the University of Nebraska now and will be sent to Manhattan from there, then on to the University of Kansas.
The exhibit this year will be much smaller than usual only twelve masterpieces having been selected as against forty last year. However these twelve are much better works of art than any that have been shown in previous years, according to Professor Griffith, and as much to them as the forty that have been displayed last year. Most of the paintings came from the 'National Gallery of Art of Washington, D. C., and are among the choicest pieces.
The exhibit will be made larger by several paintings by Kanss, including some by Prof. W. S. Griffith, himself.
A few of the Kansans who will be represented are:

Men You Know—and Don't
Prof. C. A. Dykstra
Old man, your century-long search is ended. Here's a man that without the slightest hesitation, admits that he is a teacher's son.
But that "Mister" doesn't sound just right, either. And he is much too intellectual looking to be called a professor. 'lets see' (business) the whitewheel Mr. Dyfstyei 8 near) how will it sound to call him "Dvk."
M. Dykstra, step up and shake hands.
Dyk—as he is a university-all-known was cut out for a preacher. In the political campaign of 1884, when he was stirring the racism—having been born in 1883—his father, who was a minister in the Dutch Reformed church in Cleveland, Ohio, decided that Clarence Addison should be educated for a preacher. Clarence Addison thought other-
POLITICAL CENTER TERMINAL END.
Dyk's political career began in the age of 5 years. He carried a torch in a parade and lifted his voice, which, by the way, has since become some voice—in the stirring hymn:
At the tender age of sixteen, he entered Central College in Iowa which had for its chief purpose, the training of ministers and missionaries. In order of things was shown by the fact that when a cow was found the morning after Hallowen on the third floor of one of the buildings, only two men in the whole college came to do it. The other was his brother.
To those who have followed his political career from its incipiency, it did not come as a surprise to hear of his being vigorously mentioned for the Kansas Senate in 1914. But that's another story.
POLITICAL CAREER BEGINS EARLY
Harrison is a wise man Cleveland is a fool."
"Harrison rides a white horse.
WAS RIGHT IN THE SWIM
The subsequent three years, he spent at the University of Iowa. Here he was bored almost to the point of extraction by the lack of things to do. He tried to fill in the gap that he had in his baseball, football and track and participating largely in literary societies, debates, winning first
money in an oratorical contest, organizing the first dramatic club, managing and taking the leading role in "The Rival," and playing the lad in the senior play, "The Rivals," handling athletic news for the Quill, helping to organize the Daily Iowa—and a team at a college to the University of Chicago.
His next political triumph, before the Senatorship was offered, was the management of the Junior Hop, which wasn't so bad for a minister's son.
After a year spent at the University of Chicago, he accepted the chair of history and English at the Pensacola Classical School at Pensacola, Florida. Here he coached the football and basketball teams, taught and篮球队 and when the Yale University basketball team was touring the south, a picked team was organized from the town men to oppose them. Clarence found himself staring into the face of Hyatt, the All-American that forgot the exact number of points that Yale scored, but it was enough.
The next year found him back at the University of Chicago where he was a fellow for the first year and became his second. Then Ohio State University called, and Professor Dykstra's name was soon on the Ohio payroll.
The University of Kansas next burst into fame, by adding his name to the already long list of tennis players. But Clarence Addison Dykstra came not to the University alone. Mrs. Clarence Addison came along. He thought it best to begin the new life in a new country.
Until 1914 his sole bid for fame was the fact that he was graduated in the same class with Valjalmar Stephenson and Rudolph Anderson the Arctic explorers, and that the Ames, Drake and Oklahoma Aggies coaches all departed into the cold world at the same time.
That seemed not enough. He had to get Paddy. Paddy, as you know, is a bull terrier—and some bulldog terrier at that. Since he is closely related to the Becker dog, Bunny Wilson's dog and "Pink," who belongs to C. C. Young, his cupboard iteration of Mr. Chew in the chewing machine reviewer's shoe leather and disposing of plenty of white hair on blue serge trousers.
CONGRESSIONAL BOOM DIES YOUNG

In the language of the Daily Kanat at the hands of "Pug" Ferguson, petitions were circulated and Dylstra-for-Congress clubs were organized intention of ending the popular political teacher to congress. However, since the Class in American Government was where the movement was born, it died an early death.
"But," smiled Professor Dykstra, "I received letters for a long time from my friends over the district saying that they would organize the event. I offered to offer myself as a sacriste to the newspaper ability of Ferguson."

Chancellor and Faculty to Probe For Source of Anonymous
Poster
An anonymous poster attacking Percy B, Shostac, instructor in rhetoric at the University, was distributed over the Hill this morning.
Chancellor Strong, when the bill was thrust upon his attention this morning, said in referring to the poster: "This attack is a knife thrust in the back. I cannot think that any student, having any real love or proper respect for his University would resort to this means of righting a wrong, if it be a wrong. Any student who cares to put his compliance into effect, to harm in all my office, may have the matter taken to the University Senate, for action. There is no need for such underhand methods.
"Since the bills are addressed to the Senate," the chancellor continued, "that body will be compelled to take action on the matter, and, if the perpetrators are to be punished, it will be through its hands."
Another Apronstring
Ohio State has forbidden any member of the Varsity football team to play professional football after he leaves college, under the penalty of losing his standing in the "O" association, which is formed of other institutions. If regulations require the only legitimate thing for the Varsity athlete to do after he graduates, will be to retire or enter the ministry.

EIGHT MANUSCRIPTS IN
Fifty Dollar Prize Play Will be Announced Next Week
Eight complete manuscript *plays* have been submitted to Prof. Arthur MacMurray, chairman of the Play Contest Committee, to compete for the $60 prize which will be awarded by any University student. Out of the twelve who entered the contest, the following have handed in their manuscripts: Marjorie A. A. Rickard, Arthur A. A. Names, Bob Patrick, Elizabeth A. E. Pulleo, Josephine Elizabeth A. Sullivan, Josephine艾尔兰 and Donald Davis.
"The showing made by the students in the contest," said Prof. MacMurray, "is far better than the committee in charge had expected." The competition is exceedingly good and the competition for the prize will be spirited.
"Another year it is hoped that there will be a better prize to offer. This is the first time that any contest like this has been held but the play writing contest will become an annual affair. At present, however, attention is centered upon the report that the committee will soon turn in. They are now hard at work looking over the papers; but it will probably be a week or more before any decisions are made."
College Pranks vs. Vandalism
Much of the enduring loyalty clings about the memories of such cheerful events. A college president once said that the most important institution came from men who remembered their college fun and the "idlesse" of these happy days long after time had blotted out the more serious impressions of the classroom. There is however a third institution overlooked by collegians as well as by their friends of the outside world, between college fun and fundamental decency and good order. When this line is crossed, all the authority of the faculty and, if necessary, the faculty members is brought to bear upon the offender. There should be no daily with undergraduate law breakers, no special exemptions for students. The reprehensible and even criminal acts committed by students are involved not simply dishonesty but ruthless destruction of property and menace to life, call for orwer punishment than seemingly they receive. Is it not one of the functions of collegiate training to preserve property and visual connection?
President Emeritus James B. Angell of the University of Michigan tells the story of a professor who, wishing to illustrate a point in his lecture by a harmless experiment with an animal, asked one day, "Will some student bring me morrow morning to may show my experiment?" The next day every one of the forty students entered the lecture room with a cat under his arm. Mechanical laws seem never to baffle the collegian in his search for gaisy. At the college campus cause one to cease to wonder at the mechanical triumphs of the Egyptians. At one college which the writer visited, the stilyt was disturbed by half a hundred students who were on wagon back and forth on an upperyst of a college dormitory, to which place they had succeeded in hoisting it. This occurred at midnight, and was accomplished for the specific purpose of the faculty and three hundred students who were supposed to be sleeping on the floor below.
Few things are more needed in American life today than the strengthening of respect for lawful authority. Is it time we look to the colleges for leadership in this direction?—Christian Science Monitor.

FIRST SOPHOMORE DANCE
TO TAKE PLACE FRIDA
The social calendar for the remainder of the year will contain a series of Sophomore functions if the plans of the Sophomore social committee are carried out. This body has been in session several times recently and is about ready to make its plans public.
The first class party will be in the form of a dance which will take place Friday evening at Fraternal Id Hall. This is the third dance of the week, and those in charge of the event are planning on a large crowd. Two other dances will be given during the remainder of the year as well. The students will be entertained, the nature of which the social committee does not wish to make known at the present time. However, they say that it will be essential different from anything else, especially the university of Kansas in recent years.

ANOTHER HONOR SOCIETY
"Representative Students" from all Schools Organize a New Fraternity
K. U. has a new honor society, "The Knights of the Golden K." "U" is its name, and the society was organized yesterday morning. "To defend right, to oppose wrong, and to promote a better feeling of fellowship among the recognized leaders in student activities" is the object of the organization, and it is celebrated every year yesterday morning. The "Knights" will differ from all other honor societies at the University in that its membership is composed of representatives from all the classes in the University. This membership, in the active chapter, is to be limited at all times to thirty. Twenty-five men, including four baseball players, the Hill and captains, the four major athletic teams, are charter members of the organization. Their names will be made uncle tomorrow.
A constitution was adopted, and officers were elected at the meeting yesterday. E. M. Johnson is president of the union, vice-president; Alex Creighton is secretary; and Bryan Davis is treasurer. At the next meeting of the society, to be held at the Sigma Nu house on February 3, the active work of the organization will be undertaken. The union will meet once a month there after.
An organization such as the "Knights" has long been talked of as being a desirable thing for the University. According to the founders of the new university, a biasedive organization, content to meet for social purposes only, but will endeavor to be an active force in University affairs. They will act as a sort of buffer between the student body on one hand and the teacher, and will endeavor to assist both bodies in adjusting their relations.

Refusal of K. C. A. C. to Meet K. U. Leaving Hole in Hamilton's Schedule
Now the report comes, that there will be no dual indoor meet with the K. C, A, C, this year. Dr. J, A. Reilly gave a negative answer to Hamilton's appeal for a practice meet to be held in New York City, where he met the new term and now the coach will have to look elsewhere for an opponent for the Jaghawkers cinder artists. Just who will be chosen to open the meeting will be determined as soon as possible.
Reilly insisted that he would like to meet Hamilton's men at that time but that he did not have a full team on hand now and could not get one for one single meet this early in the year.
Meanwhile the Kansas track squad will be training, for the indoor inter-class meet which will be held the see-through week of the second semester. The Aggie dual meet at Manhattan will be the next ding on the program. Then the two meets in Convention Hall will be followed by the trackers only a short time to get in good shape for the Aggie meet which will be a hard one this year.
Coaches Hamilton and Patterson will have about as much veteran material to work with as the other coaches of the Valley. There are veterans returning for almost every event and in two other events.
A large number of first year men are keeping in shape this year so that they will lose out for next year. All these men are worth while will be taken to Kansas City for the K. C. A. C. invitation meet in the middle of February. They will be entered unattached in this and individual work only will count.

University Invites All Kansas Retailers to Short Course Soon
MERCHANTS WILL STUDY
With the enrollment for the annual short course for Kansas merchants at the University, February 7 to 11 four times as large as at the corresponding time last year. Director F. R. Hamilton predicts a incidence of 500, as against 325 last year and 250 the year before.
The course has been arranged to suit the particular needs of the retailers of the state, as expressed in their letters to the chairman of the program committee and the best features of last year, including Paul H. Nystrom, are scheduled again for this year's course.
"The week will be full of good things for the owner and clerks of every store in Kansas," said Mr. Hamilton, this mornings. "Special problems arise in the problems daily confronting the man behind the counter and round tables will be held every afternoon for those engaged in a particular business. We expect a larger attendance. The course is twenty-five per cent longer and one hundred per cent better than last year."

DISCUSS GRADE PLAN
Members of University Faculty Differ on Methods of Marking
NUMBER 78.
INVESTIGATION ORDERED
Committee From Senate to Consider Possibility of Adopting Improved System
Since the recent publication of the scholarship standing at the University, there has been much discussion among students as to whether or not the present grading system is entirely satisfactory.
Is it fair not to count "IIIs" in averaging up the grades? Why must they just have flunk or pass methods? Or why not give extra toward a degree for high scholarship? These are some of the questions being asked.
That many members of the faculty are not entirely satisfied with the present system is shown by the fact that at the regular meeting of the University Senate, April 6, 1915 Prof. J. N. Van der Vries moved that a committee on grades be appointed "to consider the present system of grad" and recommend any changes which they see fit. This fellow-committee of a committee consisting of Profs. F. E. Kester, chairman, P. B. Dains, George O. Foster, W. L. Burdick and G. C. Shaad.
This committee has not yet met but arrangements are being made for a course to be offered in the problem, faculty members showed a great difference of opinion.
Chancellor Frank Strong, in discussing the problem yesterday said: "I have nothing directly to do with the grading problem, but I think that the question should be given careful consideration; and if the present plan can be better fitted, there are difficulties with all systems, however, and so far as I know, the present system seems to be all right."
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 18. 1915
F. E. Kester, professor of physics and chairman of the committee: "I cannot say what I prefer because it is not fair to go to a meeting with one's mind made up entirely. I am reading up about the systems in the other universities and as soon as I meet a meeting of the committee. There will probably be some change in the present system." FAVORS EXTRA CREDIT FOR SCHOLARSHIP
Registrar George O. Foster: "The present system of I, II, III, and funk, is too indefinite. A 'three' means something between 79 and 70 and this is hardly fair. I hope the present agitation will result in some change of the curriculum. I collected data on how other universities grade. While I was at the conference of registrars at the University of Illinois just before Christmas, I collected this material for future reference. The flunk or pass method used in some schools tends to lower the scholarship. I believe that extra credit towards a degree to students who rank high in scholarship."
G. C. Shaad, professor of electrical engineering: "I am used to the three units in grading and do not see any use for four or more. If we start a project with four units, might as well start using the one hundred per cent method with 99, 99%, 98, etc., as grades, and there are certain difficulties here. No, I don't believe in giving extra credit. It makes trouble and does no good. I am a graduate student at the MITMITtees, and have therefore come in contact with the extra credit method. The grades are in fractions and don't amount to much; and they cause no end of amount of trouble. As to the flunk or pass method, I did not improve my ability. I can almost than just pass of a distinct class than just the pass class."
Prof. P. B. Dains, department of chemistry: "If any change is to be made I am in favor of four units in each of the three departments. It too be many. The hundred per cent method is too complicated. As to offering extra credits towards a degree, I do not favor the idea, because we have been taught that you only need 120 hours for it."
Prof. J. N. Van der Vries, mathematics: 'I do not like the present system. We should have four units instead of three, and ‘three’ should be used in a fourth standing. With the four units, the ‘ones’ would be the ‘guns’, the ‘twos’ the good students, the ‘thes’ the average students, and the ‘four’ hardly worth the keepers. With the fourth most of the grades would be ‘thees’ because most of the students are just average. The scale of 100 per cent, 99%, is no good at all; it is childish. No professor can judge it easily. We need to unless he take them each separately and weigh them."
Prof. A. S. Olin, School of Education "I should like to see four units
instead of three, and then the grading would be entirely satisfactory. The other methods are not good, in my opinion. By having four units I do not mean to advocate lowering the scholarship standards but to have 70 as a 'four' instead of a 'three' as it is now."

WANT LOVE STORIES
Editors as Well as Women Like Tales of Ardent Wooing, Hynner Savs
Neatness, quickness of action, lack of information concerning the author, and a background of children and love, are some of the prerequisites of salable manuscripts, according to Witter Bynner who addressed a gathering of journalism students yesterday afternoon.
Love stories have not lost their popularity according to the poet and playwright. In fact he said that love stories are the most sought after type of manuscript. Magazines cannot get lost in a book, but love as a background even though the popular conception points to a poor sale for stories of this nature.
As regards the manuscript itself, the former magazine editor emphasis on a contribution will read a contribution will be much more likely to give it careful consideration if the manuscript is neatly gotten up. The latter should be precise and move quickly.
Mr. Bynner said, in regard to the quality of salable stories, that there was little stipulation except that the man should be able to describe things without seeing them, he said, but a man had better experience the various details if he hopes to give his story the necessary stability and coherence before the foreclosure of interest to the reading public.
DON'T REST FOR QUIZZES
Psychological Tests Show Mind More Accurate After Hard Work
How much work can a student do without think accurately and swiftly.
The careful student will probably go to bed early and rest thoroughly before his final quizzes, but the investigations of the psychology department show that he will be wrong. Prof. F. C. Dockeray, who has done research work on fatigue, says that the most works faster and accurately after a certain amount, and at least faster after a large amount of physical work. In his experiments the student was given mind tests and then put to work on a gymnasium pulling apparatus. For a time varying from two to twenty minutes. He was then given another mind test. The second incurred increases for a short time than diminishes rapidly, while speed increases up to as high as fifteen minutes hard work.
The answer is this. If the student wants better results he should work hard for a short time just before an examination; but if the professor is easily bluffed by the amount that is obtained by doing fifteen or twenty minutes manual labor before a quiz. Many students who have to climb the hill to reach their classes, are hoping that the present ice condition of the sidewalks will not last long. However, the student will get more physical labor than is beneficial either for accuracy or speed.
Eight students have withdrawn from the University since the Christmas holidays. The reasons for leaving school as given by those withdrawing have varied from having to go home to work to just having to compete in a record place gripe. The latter reason has apparently been the most popular and coming as it has near the end of the semester when all students feel the need of especially hard application it has proved fatal to the work of an entire semester's students, but these have been no more numerous than in former times.

Miss Frances Cummings Says Women Are Able to do Anything That Men do
Miss Frances Cummings, of the Intercollegiate Bureau of Occupation, with headquarters in New York, delivered an address to the women of the University Monday. January 17, at 4:30 in Fraser chapel. Opportunities for College Trained Women* was the subject of her sneech.
Miss Cummings spoke in part as follows:
"The old belief that women can not hold the same positions as are held by men is not a true one. At one time it was thought that women could have the brain capacity to cope with men. This has also been proved untrue.
"The variety of occupations for women is amazingly large. Some women manage farms and mines, others are employed as salesmen, policewomen and health inspectors, teachers and news reporters, and courage. Many occupations suit at teaching require a definite type of preparation. A good teacher must be fond of people, be able to reach and communicate with people, impart intelligent persuasion. Literary work, requiring two years of technical training after leaving college, is one field with a large opening. Scientists can find position in the lab or in the office. Bureau finds employment for more stenographers than for any other occupation. A broad education is necessary for such a position. The field for social settlement work is in the school. You're up this work. Women are admitted to such work after having taken a year's work in the school of Philanthropy or its equivalent. Sociology and Economics form the background for these occupations today, so a knowledge of these subjects will be helpful."
Five men have given their names to Professor Hill as contestants in the local Peace Debate. The winner will represent the University of the State Peace Oratorical Contest to be held in Iowa on June 26. The following have expressed their willingness to enter the contest: Clarendon Havinghurst, Charles Stiller, James Sellers, Herbert Howland and Ralph Rader. Several men are expected to join the squad soon. The winners of the local debates in the State Peace Contest and the State contest are required to send a copy of their debate to the Secretary of the State Peace Contest, Prof. E. D. Schonberger at Topeka, will eliminate four of the twelve on their thought and composition, and fifty dollars will be given to the two in the contest and a man will be selected to represent the state in the western division.

Course in American Government Now Offered to Prospective Disciple of Ucle Jimmy
Second semester freshmen, who intend to enter in the School of Law in their sophomore year, will be allowed to take courses overseas. The course has been offered to sophomores only in the past but at the solicitation of the School of Law, they may enter to second term pre-legal students.
Dean Green, of the School of Law said this morning that the course in American Government has been on the School's recommendation list for some time, but because of the course courses, law students have been compelled, in many cases, to omit the course entirely.
The American Government course has always been starred—open to sophomores only—and will continue to be a sophomore subject with the single exception that in the second semester, all men who are pre-legal students may obtain permission to enroll in American Government.
Work of Professor Morse Especially Good—Three Hundred Attend
MUSIC RECITAL PLEASES
Three hundred persons attended the recital last night given by members of the Fine Arts faculty, in spite of the cold and snow.
"It it was especially Mr. Wort S. Morgan'recital," said Prof. Chas S. Skilton, "and his playing was the most artistic and perfect work that he has yet done in Lawrence. His technical work is always admirable, but last night he showed a deeper insight into the artistic side, impressing the moods of the piece in careful detail in several difficult points—double notes, harmonic overtones, and playing with the mute."
Mr. Morse's best and most highly appreciated selection was probably the Hungarian Rhapsody by Hauser, Prof. Chas. S. Skilton's composition was high in quality. This was way above first prize in New York by the Music Teachers Association in 1897 to whom seventy composers contributed.
Miss Sweeney sweeeney played the accompaniments in an artistic and sympathetic manner. It is interesting to note that Mr. Oscar Seagle when he was here, fearing that his accompaniment would not be heard on the concert, went over his program with Miss Sweeney and complimented her slightly on her work.
Railroads Raise Rates to Big City, but Students Foil Cruel Corporations
300ST. THE FARE TO K. C.
Although Saturday, January 15 saw a raise in all in interstate rail revenue to Kansas City one, K. U. students who are on the inside are doing little worrying about the additional cents, or 52 cents on the round trip.
A. Kansas City, Kans., student who has for several years been profiling by the cheaper rate from the western state, said that he had the new raise could be avoided with very little inconvenience. With all the trains on the Union Pacific stopping at the Armstrong station in Oklahoma City, a portion of the Santa Fe ones at the Argentine station; it is an easy matter merely to purchase, tickets to one of these points. Both being within the state interstate highway, the students while to rise over the imaginary state line the rate becomes $2\frac{1}{4}$ cents. The saving is the difference between 72 cents to Argentine, 76 cents to Armstrong and 98 cents to Kansas City, Missouri.
Upon arrival in Kansas City, Kan-
one can either take a street car to
either City, or at a 6 cime fare,
get off and go home. In either case,
the Union Station*or remain on
and pay the conductor for the remaining
distance of three or four miles at
Union Station. In either case
the difference will be less than the
regular fare of 98 cents.
The committee on convocations is planning to bring Billy Sunday to the University in April, at the close of his campaign in Kansas City. Although Mr. Sunday is much in demand in the large cities, the committee hopes that he may visit the University for at least one day.
The only two east bound Santa Fo-
trains which do not stop at Kansas
City Kans., are, Number 10 leaving
12 at 6:43 a.m. p., and Number
12 at 6:43 a.m.

WALTER JOHNSON HERE
Managing Editor of Topeka Capital Will Tell Cubs How He Made Good
Walter Johnson, managing editor of the Topea Capitol, will speak to tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the morning. He will discuss his subject being, "The Opportunities and Limitations of a Newspaper Man." The talk will be given especially for students in the department of communication that are interested are invited to attend.
Mr. Johnson is a graduate of the Lawrence high school. When a small boy in this town, he discovered that he had "a nose for news" and the longing to get out in the game choked out any desire for a university education. The university became city editor of the old Kansas City "Times." When that paper was sold to the "Star", Mr. Johnson went to Hutchinson and worked on the "News" under W. Y. Morgan. A few years spent in Battle Creek, Mich., quenched his desire for residence in foreign lands and became manager of the Hutchinson "Gazette".
During the session of the Kansas legislature last winter, Mr. Johnson was Topeek correspondent for the Kansas City "Journal" and became so thoroughly acquainted with Topeka and its source of news that he was hired by the newspaper to investigate* when Harry C. Green resigned. Mr. Johnson was a regular bureau of information for the senior journalists who covered the legislature last year.
A MEAGRE RESPONSE
Students Are Indifferent to Appeals for Clothing for Belgium and French

COLDS ARE DANGEROUS
Member of University Health Service Says They Lead to More Serious Maladies
DENOUNCES LOW NECKS
Says They Impair Resistance of Women and Should Not be Worn
Because of the careless attitude taken by many people toward contracting ordinary colds, a member of the University Health Service has issued a statement on the seriousness of ordinary colds and how to prevent them.
Ordinary colds are taken far too lightly, according to the report, and many people are in error as well as having an allergic reaction to pneumonia or tuberculosis when they refuse to think of a cold as more than a passing inconvenience. Pneumonia, bronchitis, pharyngitis, and bronchial troubles are directly attributable to ordinary colds.
SECOND COLD COMES EASIER
It is important to be careful, to avoid catching colds as one is always dull and stolid when the lungs and bronchial tubes are congested so as to prevent the normal flow of oxygen. This decreases the supply of oxygen for the lungs. These conditions leave the student drowsy and are usually accompanied by a headache due to the pressure of the carbon dioxide gas in the blood.
Students are particularly susceptible to colds because of their being housed, often too warmly, a greater part of the day and then on going out into the air become chilled, and a cold results. The opinion held by many, that one becomes hardened to colds, is fast and rather a succession of colds takes place to form an attack because of lowering one's vitality and resistance.
LOW NECKS DANGEROUS
NORMAN DANDEUS
Women make men liable to attack by cobs because of the bared necks which fashion demands and would do much toward preventing colds by evading fashions edict for low necked gowns. Women make a further mistake in dress by sitting all through class with all their outdoor clothes which makes chilling almost certain upon again entering the outdoor air.
By the observance of sanity in matters of dress can colds be the most easily avoided, says the article. Wear a long-sleeved shirt, as the surface as it is much preferred to cotton, which is one of the best conductors of heat. Light woolen hose are much better for conserving health this time of the year than cotton ones. Be temperate in diet, take exercise, wear loose clothing, dress with warm underclothing, regulate the outer garments to the changes of the temperature.
UNIOR PROM COMES SOON
"The Affair of the Year" Will be Held March 3rd. in Robinson Gymnasium
The Junior Promenade will be staged Friday, March 3. The managers, Foster and Friend, have been working since last fall and now announce, as usual that it will be "bigger and better than ever before."
The dues are $3.50 this year and the whole sum will be spent on the Prom.
The managers are thinking seriously of doing away with the junior farce. They think that the custom is old and worn out and for that reason should not be used. The present plan is to procure cabaret performers to furnish entertainment while refreshments have been made for the service. Hawaiiian quartet from the Baltimore and several cabaret singers.
Ray Hall will bring his ten piece orchestra down from Topeka to furnish music for the dancing. The party will start at 8 o'clock.
The Y. M.-Y. W. party which is scheduled in the K books for March 3rd will not be held on that evening the managers state.
Cabs and flowers are to be under the table all flowers will be checked at the door.

The discontented Man finds no easy Chair—Richard's Almanac.
WHY NOT?
The voice of Mammon is after all the voice that speaks the loudest.
We may philosopher as much as we will about the sordidness of gold and the degrading influence of money, but when all is said and done, in the last analysis, the only real strength that an organization has, consists in its right to handle finances.
It is lack of any kind of financial support and the lack of any opportunity to handle money, that has made the Student Government Associations the helpless, powerless bodies that they have become.
If the Men's Student Council had had any sort of financial backing the Student Union would not have resulted in failure. In the first place, if the Council had had money, it would have been able to put up a creditable club house that could not but have been a success, and in the second place, if it had had a financial backing, the Student Union could have been tided over and nursed back into a healthy condition.
The report of the financial standing of the athletic association is just out. The athletic association is the only organization in the University that has control of any finances and the handling of any money.
What would the Student Council not be able to accomplish if it had the same financial backbone?
In other large universities where student government has succeeded, and where anything worth while has been accomplished by the student government organizations, they have had control of all athletics and the expenditure of money brought in by athletics.
If the Student Government Associations had control of finances they would be able to establish a cooperative bookstore on a firm foundation, a cooperative bookstore that would finally grow into a large cooperative general store such as they have at Harvard. Student government would then have power enough to carry through any ventures that it might undertake.
But not until the control of finances is put into the hands of the Student Government Association, with a board of directors composed of both members of the student body and members of the faculty, will student government ever amount to anything powerful, or ever have the power and strength to push through the things it may undertake.
CODIFIED AT LAST
The new constitution of the University of Kansas is just off the press. With its passage by the University Senate, the institution has changed from a government made up of customs and laws gradually built upon precedent to a government with codified laws dealing with the different powers of the different departments. The University has passed from the stage of the unwritten constitution, of which England is a good example, to the written and more exact ruling.
The new constitution deals with ten main points, setting forth the duties and the limitations of the various bodies and officers. While each officer knew before the passage of the constitution what his duties were, now he may look up any point that arises as to his rights in any matter.
Director of libraries is a new office which has been created by the constitution. General supervision of the various school libraries, together with the examination and selection of books is a part of the duties of the director.
After forty-eight years of doing things because they have always been done that way, the University of Kansas will now do them because they are printed in a book: from the spirit to the letter of the law.
THE NEXT TO GO?
One by one they are taking them from us, the little indulgences we have learned to think are necessary. The cough, time-honored fellow to the cold, is the first victim. We have it from no less an authority than Dr. Woods Hutchinson, the widely known popularizer of medical knowledge, that coughing is only a habit, a nervous habit due to a tickling in the throat brought on by previous coughing, and also by a sort of unconscious imitation. Hence, if a man never coughs the first time, and is careful not to do as the Romans do, he will never have to cough, nor even to clear his throat.
But the iconoclasts are not content with robbing us of this one comfort. They must needs go a step farther, and declare that sneezing and the picking of one's teeth are obsolete. "All habits," they say, "nervous habits. You have been jellyfish, spinless creatures, failing to use your will for the betterment of your health."
These reformers are on the war path, and they mean business. Warrants are out for the cough, the mneeze, and the toothpick. What will be the next to go? Perhaps the hand-criefish and the cuspidor.
Now that the Austrian civilians have to do without cigarettes so that the soldiers can be supplied, they may begin to appreciate the horrors of war.
The trawlers "Good Shepherd" and "Pax Vobiscum" took the parcel post off the Oscar II, thus preventing Christmas packages from reaching their destinations. But then, what's in a name, especially in war times?
The fact that the mark and the Krone have depreciated in value at the foreign exchanges, doesn't seem to be affecting German markmanship.
FOUND IN A BOOK
A Corner for the Library Browser
"Why am I wrong in trying to get a little success?"
"Just because you try. Don't you understand?". Good work has nothing to do with this doesn't belong to—you've put it into him or her from outside."
"Wait a minute. All we can do is to learn how to do our work, to be masters of our materials instead of our tools and never to be afraid of anything."
"I understand that."
"But how does that affect___"
"Everything else comes from outside ourselves. . . Very good. If we sit down quietly to work out notions that are sent to us, we may or we may not deal with them in a great deal depends on being master of the bricks and mortar of the trade. But the instant we begin to think about success and the effect of our work—to play with one eye on the other and to learn everything else. At least that's how I have found it. Instead of being quiet and giving every power you possess to your work, you're fretting over something which you can neither see nor hear.

I have heard of a copy of "Sentimental Tommy" in the library. But as I have asked at the desk six times for the book I rather doubt it. I know of a boy who got out the ponderous, generation-age volumes of Scriffner's to read how Tommy lost the prize.
"The Iron Woman" by Mrs. Margaret Delaird whose biography, logic, and purity of diction has caused Mr. Hamilton Mabie to characterize it as one of the strongest pieces of American fiction, and other characteristic works that are absent. Yet Robert W. Chambers, Josephine Dasmond Bacon, and Ralph Connor—all these may be had for the asking.
There is a thumb-worn "Tess o. the D'urbervilles" somewhere back in the stacks lost as hope'less as they were, and another with the curvature of the spine which the journalism classes keep constantly in sight and watch with an eagle eye fearful for the future.

This is not an attack on the library, nor on its mengerness of solid diet. I realize that we are poor at Kansas in alumni of large universities. Rather it is an attack on the lack of discrimination between the cheap and the shoddy, and the lasting and the permanent. Perhaps as the result of our education in our libraries the literary ideals of our undergraduates will be increased.

Brown's football eleven will play the University of Washington team of Seattle, at Pasadena, California, on New Year's Day.
The students as a rule read what there is for them to read. That is self-evident. So it is impossible to blame students for a lack of discrimination between the cheap and the shoddy and the lasting and the permanent when in our own university library the same lack of discrimination is deplorably evident at every glance thru the files.
Possibly no more charming book has been written than Benjamin Franklin's story of his own life. It should be in the hands of every American. Dr. Eliot includes it in his "five foot book" on the history of America. Yet only one autobiography of Benj. Franklin is in existence in the library, while Henry Van Dyke's puerile verses are honored with three copies each.
I was looking only the other day for some volumes on the "new poetry", the work of the Imagists; anthology, most important, the modern drama—and the result! alas—"no not one". Gertrude Stein, Vasheh Lindsay, Amel Lovell, Jonathan Rothschild, of them, are noticeably lacking. Yet Elia Wheeler Wilcox has nine large volumes.

Russian literature, except for the artists. every child knows (I refer to Tolstoi and one or two others) is conspicuous by its absence.

Women taking the course in Economic Uses of Food are required to give dinners that will be acceptable to the rich man, poor man, or "medium" man's pocket-book. "The dinner is planned, cooked, and served on a fine care is taken that the meal is well balanced and that it contains the necessary number of calories. The "poor" dinner must not cost more than ten cents a person, the middle-class diet requires seventeen cents, and the "rich" dinner not more than twenty-five cents.
Pi, the bulldog belonging to the Pi Upsilon fraternity, is showing a better attendance in the Medieval History class now that quiz week is so near. But it wasn't necessary for the dog to keep a note book. During a lecture Wednesday morning Pi leaped upon the stage and lay down at the feet of the instructor. "I hadn't made any arrangements to give an animal show morning," said Professor Foster son, so I will continue with the lecture.

After enjoying the healthy bark this modern son of the forest sprinted up a snow bike, rubbed himself down and then disappeared into the gymnasium.

HOW IT IS ACCOMPLISHED
Little Booklet is a Veritable "Who's Who" in the University of Kansas
Here is a chance to satisfy some of that "Intellectual Curiosity."
One thousand copies of "The Constitution of the University of Kansas" have been printed and are at the university's library. Copies have been sent to the state universities all over the United States, and each faculty member receives one as a belated Christmas gift. All are left for general distribution.
The Chancellor is the executive head of the University, a member of the legislative bodies of the University, and "official medium of communication" between the Board of Administration and the faculty, and the students and the faculty. As such he is responsible for the business and educational administration of the University. There is also a vice president, to act in "the absence or temporary disability" of the Chancellor.
All of the instructors, professors, and administrative officers of the University meet once each semester on the third Saturday after registration in what is known as the University Week. Students this gathering is to outline legislation and to formulate its attitude on any matter of University concern.
The Registrar, the University Marshal, the Chancellor, the Vice President, the Adviser of Women, and all professors and associate professors, are members of the Senate. The Chancellor or any ten members can call a special meeting of the Senate.
The Senate has control over the social life, discipline, athletics, organizations, and publications of the students. It also can grant advance standing, fix the chapel program, recommend teachers, control the University divisions, and appoint committees.
eight different schools in the University are enumerated. The Schools are divided into departments each department being headed by the head professor. Both schools and departments have their separate organizations and committees as does the Senate.
The University Divisions are eight in number: the Summer Session, the University Extension, Athletics, the Libraries, the Museums, publications, State Service Work, and the University Research Center. A branch is named by Directors, whose powers correspond to those of the Deans of the various schools.
The Deans of the various schools and the directors of the divisions make out the budgets annually for their various departments, and give them to the Chancellor, who in turn makes out both an annual and a biennial budget for the Board of Education which he parsed down considerably after it leaves the hands of the various beads of schools and divisions.
The Registrar, the Superintendent of buildings and Grounds, and the University Marshal are Administrative officers in a class by themselves. The Registrar is the responsible individual that Coach Hank has to bring prospectus football material to the University. His first named duty is "to correspond with prospective students." Another important function named is the editing of the student directory. You can formulate your own joke here. He is also a statistician, economist, and historian; things as scholarship carts, transcripts and lists of candidates for degrees.
Professors, associate professors,
and assistant professors after two
years service are on permanent
higher degree or annual year appointment. The titles of
Dean, head professor, director,
or Vice-President may be shifted from one professor to another, as the
professors may have the best interests
of the University.
Just how, the various officers and instructors are appointed is somewhat of a puzzle, except that all appointments have to be approved either by the Chancellor or by the Board of Administration. Amend-ments may be made by the chairhall vote of the Senate with the approval of the Board.
An appendix is added to the booklet, giving in full the act creating the Board of Administration, outlining its duties and powers, as well as salaries, traveling expenses, and officers. There are only three limitations on the appointment of the members: first, that no two shall be members of the same political party; second, that no one member shall be an alumnus of any of the institutions under the control of the board; and third, that not more than one member shall be from any one congressional district

HAMILTON NOT BLUE
Feels Good Despite the Husker Drubbing Last Week-end in Lincoln
It was a cheerful W. O. Hamilton that greeted visitors this morning despite the pair of basketball disasters that happen each year. With its week-end junt to Lincoln, theair of the Nebraska Cornhusker.
While never putting out many alibis after losing an athletic event, the czar of Mount Ouread athletics admitted this morning that only a weed decision gave Glowawy the Agent coach who referred the Northern series, kept Kansas from a victory in that opening one point defeat. With but a minute to go, Gibben made a pouch from near me but the near me agent, the Lowman kindly called him out-side and disallowed the score. Then to make matters worse a foul was assessed when the pewed Mr. Gibben politely told the player he would greatly prefer to see him in a warmer climate than Nebraska.
In the second game Saturday night, the team went fine until the last five minutes when the blowup came and with it the thirteen point margin by which the Huskers won the contest. The final score was 40-27.
As a result of the disastrous series the Jayhawker basketeers are probably in a lower position in the Missouri Valley Conference race than ever before. Missouri with ties to victories over Ames and Washington won all three honors won army trophies. Nobraska is second. The standing follows;
G. W. L. Pet.
Missouri 4 4 0 100
Nebraska 2 2 0 100
Ames 4 1 3 250
Kansas 4 1 3 250
Washington 4 2 0 200
Kansas Aggies and Drake, no games played.
Because of a conflict with Mrs. Eustace Brown's party February 25, Manager Hamilton has charged the date of the Lawrence series with Missouri until Monday and Tuesday, Feb. 28 and 29. Two track meet dates have been definitely decided upon, the indoor Kansas Aggregate at Mount Rushmore, Feb. 21 and the annual dual meet with Missouri in Convention Hall being on March 17 the same week-end as the big high school basketball tournament.
SPORT PICKUPS
Another K. U. indoor record—if there is such a thing—took a tumble yesterday afternoon when Rodkey ran the half mile in. This is another Robinson track but Coach Hamilton held the watch on the race and swears that the time is accurate unless his watch was cutting up. But the watch was correcting accuracy and Rodkey's new mark will prophey his 2:06:4 set last year.
The indoor records on the Robinson cork are not recorded as official even when made in a meet. But the tracksters take pride in remembering the best time in all the events made each year and it is a happy man who can
beat one of the records even though the new or old one will not be recorded.
Looks Like a Student But He,s a K.U. Dean
1910
Coach Patterson is laid up temporarily with the grip but expects to be out for practice this afternoon. In his absence Hamilton has to take time away from his field event men on the first floor to timing tracks. Ocott is helping with events also. How weights this week also.
It is unusual for such a low record to be set this early in the year. In other years the pace became faster gradually and near the end of the indoor season the best time would be recorded. Rodkey's new record will doubtless stand up the year will happen. The record for this year in the half was about six seconds slower than the time set yesterday.
F. J. Kelly, Dean School of Education at University of Kansas.
Grady, Stateler and Groene ran a fast two mile Saturday afternoon. They finished in the order named with Grady crossing the line in 10:31. Stateler was one second ahead of Groene. Stateler's heels. With three men running the two mile in this time Hamilton ought not to worry for lack of two milers.
During the first term of this year, Niedorf of Missouri was not in school. No definite report has been received yet in regard to his returning for this semester but the chances are that he will be on hand for the Conferences and may also attend Of course, it is not his business to notify Kansas of his intentions but the Kansas track men are counting on his appearing in Schulte's line-up.
LEADERS OF MEN
If Niederm does return to the Tiger school, Schalte is going to have a rey team, that will make the other Valley teams stand up and take notice. "We'll be the only one missing from the team which went to the Penn games last April. Then they will have Rider and Pittum to fill in this gap. It looks as easy as that," Schalte said, then to cinch the Convention Hall meet before the relay is run.
LEADERS OF MEN
As college presidents in essays, addresses, and commencement orations put it, "The aim of the college is to train leaders in every branch of life in which the college graduates find work." The root of the blind man said stepping off a precipice, but there are several kinds of leaders, leaders of thought, leaders of action, and leaders of men.
When the student tucks his diploma away in the bottom of his trunk and sallows forth into the wide, wide world, or when the student ambles with it, we will find that the chief ability to handle men, to lead men, to know human nature—he must be a leader of men. The only way to learn how to lead men is to lead them. "Do the thing and you shall have the power to do it," he says, "then they will know the power." Knowledge of the ways and nature of humankind can be only acquired by doing, not by studying; by acting, not by theorizing; by tolling, not by dreaming; by striving, not by sleeping; by being trained; by training. Such experience can be gained most satisfactorily in college through the agency of extra-curricular activities. To fit himself for a position as a leader of men the undergraduate has to lead in things, has to manage others, it will not do for him just to be liked and to be a good-natured companion of more aggressive men.
Todd Heads Academy
The man who engages in college journalism, the man who plays on an athletic team or manages one, the man who takes part in any form of college sports, the man from afar work is learning to know human nature, is learning how to be agreeable and saue in trying circumstances, how to lose his self-consciousness and come out of his shell into an adultiant effort. He is gradually developing an individuality and a personality, learning and obliterating his own idiosyncracies and coming to tolerate those of others, and is gaining control over like-minded individuals and power of what "He who has much looked on at the childish satisfaction of other persons in their hobbies, will regard his own with only a very ironical indulgence. He does the demystics. He will have a great and cool allowance for all sorts of persons and opinions." Of such are the leaders of men—Columbia Spectator.

Book Exchange Which Opens Saturday Allows Students to Sell Old Volumes
The University book exchange which will be situated in the east end of Professor Johnson's office on the main floor of Fraser Hall will be open next Saturday afternoon Text, referent and subject information supplies may be listes for sale. No charge will be made for unsold books or supplies.
"Students should bear in mind," said Manager Neal D. Ireland, "the fact that a successful exchange will pave the way for a cooperative student's body to move on." This is reason, this issue, if no other, the exchange should be patronized."
The exchange is not a money making proposition but has been started solely for the benefit of students. Testimony gathered as a result of the questionnaires sent to Nassau State universities show that a university book exchange does not seriously interfere with the business of local book stores.
The dramatic clubs of the two state universities of Nebraska and Kansas may exchange their plays, if a plan now being made by Prof. Arthur MacMurry works out. He can exchange, Nebraska would bring her production of "Believe Me, Xantippe" to Lawrence; and the Kansas club would play "The Witching Hour" in Lincoln. Alice Howell, director of dramas at Nebraska is corresponding with Proff. MacMurry in regard to the scheme.

"Believe Me, Xantippi" was written by a former Nebraska student, Frederick Ballard. Prof. L. E. Sisson, of the University department of English, saw the play presented at Lincoln, and he pronounced the Nebraska club's production an excellent one.
WANT ATHLETICS TO
TRAIN MILITARY MEN
College athletics make young men physically fit for military service, according to the opinion of the Society of Directors of Physical Education in Colleges, at a recent meeting at Columbia University.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 19, 1915.
NUMBER 79.
FIRST YEAR WOMEN SWING
DUMB BELLS FOR GRADES
The substitution of athletic games for calefitness and manual of arms drill develops better men for the army. The present war is showing that the all-round strength of the individual and development of all organs, gained by athletic games, allows the man to exercise that teaches merely disciplining.
The morning classes were quizzed on calenetics and wa1. drill, while the afternoon classes were examined on dumb-bells and the regular calenetic exercises. The sophomore unit is unitized with Miss Elliot and Miss Pratt in charge. Swedish work and Indian Club swinging will compose the quiz.
"The gymnasium classes are coming through with their quizzes in fine shape," said Miss Gladys Elliot, today. "Each girl is being given a number; I stand up in front of the class and give the commands and Dr. Alice Goetz walks around the class at the back, then counts the numbers which each girl wears on her back, she is able to judge accurately what each woman is doing."
Fine Students For Rushing
Freshmen and sophomores at McGill University, Montreal, have been fined seventy-five cents each for participating in the annual freshman-sophomore rush last October, which resulted in some damage to resale records. Students who do not pay the fine will be suspended from classes.

GRADUATES ELECTED TO HIGH SCHOOL FACULTIES
The following graduates and graduate
students have recently received
receipts to teach:
Miss Tina Schulz, a graduate student in the department of modern language, was elected head of the German department in the Emporiz high school. Her work begins next Monday.
Miss Inis Morris, '12, has been elected to teach mathematics in the same school. Miss Morris has been teaching mathematics in the Topela school in the place of Mr. Graham, who had a half year's leave of absence.
Miss Elizabeth Parker has received notice of her appointment to a German and history position in the Atkellon high school. Miss Parker's work begins at the opening of the second semester
J. M. Johnson, who gets his degree in math, joins a position in the Iola high school.
IDA M. TARBELL COMING
Will be Here February 11—Good Program Planned for Merchants' Short Course
"Ida M. Tarbell will surely be here on February 11 to speak during the Merchant's Short Course. A telegram received Monday night assured us of that fact," said F. R. Hamilton, director of the Extension Division. Owing to some doubt he still needs to have some doubt about her being able to keep the appointment. The subject of her address has not yet been announced."
A. E. Butterworth, head window trimmer for the John Tray Dry Goods Company of Kansas City, who will give two talks, with demonstrations, on the subject "Draperies and Women's Ready-to-Wear," has been added to the program. The subject of window trimmers is a real war that owing to a special request from several of the merchants who attended last year, this number was added to the program, though it was not originally included.
Registration's have been received from four states other than Kansas: Colorado, Oklahoma and Okinawa and registrations and requests for rooms are still coming in.
"We must have more rooms," said Mr. Hamilton. "We will need not less than 150 and so far not more than twenty have been listed. If those persons who have rooms to rent will telephone into the Extension Dixion, we shall be gifted to list them, and assign them to the managers for session of the Short Course. We shall greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who has accommodations to rent."

Lawrence Merchants Say Tha
Hill Inhabitants Pay Better
Than Most People
More than ninety-nine per cent of the students of the University are good debtors is the opinion of the merchants of Lawrence. A canvass of students on that on the whole the students here are prompt in the payment of their debts. "Our credit business among the students is very large," said one merchant. "They are the best pay on the accounts do not go over one per cent."
Another merchant who does a large credit business among K. U. students said, "We seldom lose an account, but we never lost it. I feel from a student leaving the University, but as soon as the student gets out and gets a job the account is paid. Only last week I received a bill from a student paying an account over two years old."
The next dealer said, "I am always glad to accommodate the student who needs me. I know that people have a tendency to abuse the privilege of credit. A man will often buy on credit articles that he would have to pay without if he were forced to pay cash."
If you do not get your Daily Kansan please notify Western Union (Bell 4321) and a messenger will bring you promptly your Kansan. Wait until seven o'clock in order to provide for emergency delays.
"Students' accounts are the best on our books," said another merchant, "Only in special instances do they run for more than ninety days. For longer accounts the students are willing for the debt to be taken over in the form of a note bearing a fair rate of interest."
The bankers of the city were not inclined to talk concerning the profit in handling student accounts. One banker, who appears to be more organized, said: "Although we are compelled to keep extra help to look after student checks, the increased business we get from the merchants because of the money spent by students is something that does not occur Lawrences and that offsets the cost of handling so many small accounts."
To Local Subscribers
The next banker held a peculiar view of the subject not common to the business world, he said. It is no less profitable than a small account taken from anyone else. We consider it a part of a man's education to learn something about banking and are willing to consider the student body to the education of the student body."
Seventeen Students Stand Up for Their Instructor
The Kansan is doing all in its power to perfect its carrier service but appreciates that adding to routes, new carriers, and especially this kind of weather, makes it probable that two or three out of a thousand may fail to get their papers.
Percy B. Shostac, an instructor in the department of English, has been vindicated, at least in the eyes of the students in his 1130 class, petitioning against being by most every member of the class protesting against the injustice done him by the circular. The petition says: "Professor Shostac's treatment of the works of Botticelli was enlightening without any suggestion of indecency."

CLASS DEFENDS SHOSTAC
This plan is to give each reader the maximum of service.
"We wish to add that we appreciate his efforts to stimulate us to a consideration of the important questions of life, art and literature."
The petition was signed by seventeen students and was presented to hatchback University's afternoon to the University's administrators that hey uphold Shmortz.

TO BE POPULAR, TALK
ABOUT THE COAL SUPPLY
If your house is warmed by a coal furnace, don't take that young man too seriously when he calls you up for a date on one of these cold nights. It is a cruel, cruel thought, but it is just like a man; that date may have been set for a date on the side of a red hot furnace sending up warm draughts into the house.
It is said that the number of dates has shifted perceptibly from gas-heated to coal-heated houses. A warm corner is very much in demand now and rosy checks, dreamy eyes, nearly white skin and the size of one's coal pile seems to be the current mark of the social success.
Gas is low during the cold weather—as usual. And the most enthusiastic date grows chilled in a room where icicles are sprouting. Therefore heed this moral: If you would be popular now, drop frequent hints about the pile of coal in the basement at your house.
GOING TO THE FOLLIES?
It's Going to be Staged in Law
rence This Year—With K. U.
People Starring
Enter the Follies of K. U., the Which's Which chorus, the Departmental Ballet, or anything you want to call it. Anyway, this gigantic whiz is cozy enough to provide its private car can be found, and its original line can be kept intact.
This big show, ladies and gentlemen, is the first of its kind ever presented within the limits of civilization and was evolved by the master minds of men whose prophetic vision has ascribed to them the compassionate and brought sorrow to many a fond mother's dream of her stalwart son or beautiful daughter.
TO BE OF MASTODONIC PROPORTIONS
The show these men have evolved from their master minds is stupendous. They know such gigantic size, such mastodonic proportions that it is seriously doubled if it can be staged in either the Bowersock Theatre or Robinson Gymnasium. However, the same master minds arrange all that, so don't give friends, but remember the date, February 2.
And back of this great production is a worthy cause, a cause of suffering humanity which cannot be expressed in words. The War Relief Fund to which the generous students have so bountifully contributed almost nothing is not a thing to be lightly overlooked. Men are dying, women are ill and women are making toe marks in the snow are begging for a crust, while on Mount Oread men and women walk in furs and woolens and eat to satiety.
FOR WAR RELIEF FUND
That is what this show is for, friend. Frankly that is the reason of its being. When men cannot be brought to realize the need of direct giving, why not have indirect giving done? Why not? Thus thought the master minds who invented this great show. Here is the olan they made.
HERE IS THE PROGRAM
Each department in the University of Kansas which can, will put on one big act of the show. The Glee Club will sing, the public speaking students will stage a farce, the disciples of H. A. Lorenz will probably tumble more than he did. It was tumbled and the boxers box more blood-thirstily than Jess Willard.
But, ladies and gentlemen, this is not all. There are other acts too, such as buying a book or being acquired faster than Fords. Still more are wanted. If you have one tucked away in a pocket or the family Bible, bring it out and present
And now, good people, before the show begins, make your date. And then it is leap-year. Don't overlook that striking fact. No woman should hesitate, unless Mrs. Brown diagrees to accompany her to a show where the box office money feeds and clothes the people of a ravaged land.

HAVE A GOOD TEAM
Aggies Will Make Kansas Fight Hard For a Basketball Victory
The Kansas Aggie basketball team will come to Lawrence tomorrow for a couple of games with Hamilton's five on the Robinson court. These will be the fifth and sixth Conference battles of the year for the Kansas State team, and men have gained from their experience with the Cornhuskers and Ames.
OLD MAN DOPE
The advance dope on the Aggie squad is meager, but from the playing they have been doing this year even the most optimistic Jayhawkower supporter cannot look for more than an annual dividend. The farmers lost only one from last year's squad, Captain Nelson. Seven letters were granted to Aggie players so six letter men will be on the squab which arrives in Lawrence tomorrow.
With the championship squad Hamilton had last year, the Aggies slipped up on Kansas for one game out of the series of four. This proved to be the only defeat for Dummeir's squad which led to a win against team back this year Lowman's men have the advantage of the green midgets who inhabit Mt. Oread.
In comparative scores the Aggies also have the advantage. Only one team has faced both the Aggies and Kansas this year, and that is the weak Washburn bunch. Kansas finished with a 38 to 10 score from the team while the opposing team a 66 to 10 game from them. Both Conference schools finished the second half with an entire set of substitutes.
HAMILTON IS OPTIMISTIC
HAMILTON IS OPTIMISTIC
But it must not be inferred that Kansas has not much of a chance with the Manhattan basketball cagers. On Wednesday, Columbus Coach Hamilton was loud in his case of the improvement in the style of playing showed by his men. He believes that they have hit their stride now and will put up some fights that will show championship class.
As was the case in the first part of the season, the line-up will not be known until the game is ready to play. It was used effectively in the Cornell-staff game against Kennedy, but the change was only temporary. Probably ten men will get into the fracas before it is over Thursday night. Friday night will be in line with that. Kansas expects the big end of the score at least one of the two nights.
Missouri is going to make a strong bid for the Valley basketball championship this year. Van Ghent has a good strong squad and they have shown their heels to all opponents so far. This includes Ames squash, both games, and one game week before Missouri visited Ames. Both games were one-sided victories with the long end of the score hanging on the Tiger side.
The Kansas Aggies have been reported as strong Valley Championship contenders this year. They have played no Conference games yet but the fact that they have the same line-up which proved so strong last year gives the doesters a chance to figure the Aggies in the running. Since Kansas has a poor chance of getting the colors for her own trophy case, the sport enthusiasts would like to see the Aggies admission to the Conference a few years ago the Lowmates have never had as good a chance in any sport as they have this year in basketball.
Baker and Friends Universities played a fast game of basketball in Baldwin last night. Baker took the long end of a 31 to 24 score and leads Zabel's team that Zabel's squad will be in for the Kansas state championship this year.
Glenn F.-R. Russ, a sophomore from Falls City, Nebraska, has withdrawn from school to take a position as manager of the awning and tent department of his brother's sack and tent factory in Shreveport, Louisiana. While Russ was a freshman he broke the freshman pole vault record several times but not officially.
Mildred Eppard, of the Graduate School, has returned from St. Charle's, Iowa, where she has been in charge on account of the illness of her mother.

gave a reception Saturday evening for the working force of the University libraries.

Gifts much expected are paid, not given—Poor Richard's Imanac.
UP TO DATE
A great change has come over public opinion in its ideas as to the education of women. From the point of time, it has not been so very many years ago since women were barred from American universities.
Now we find that not only are colleges and universities anxious to provide women with professions, but are even going to the point of introducing employment bureaus for college women.
These employment bureaus have been introduced into Chicago and New York with branches at the various universities. Kansas has not been lacking in enterprise in introducing such a bureau at the University.
Through the endeavors of certain women faculty members a representative from the Chicago Women's College Employment Bureau was introduced to speak to the University women two years ago. And this year a member of the New York Intercollegiate Bureau of Occupations came to Lawrence to assist in forming a branch employment bureau for college women wishing to find positions upon leaving school.
The idea of the bureau is one that will be heartily endorsed by women of the University who desire to find occupations other than teaching. The Association of Collegeiate Alumnae is to be congratulated upon being so far sighted as to recognize the needs of university women.
THE INVENTOR OF OPTIMISM
"Look pleasant!"
There is no use in pouting but what's the use of having a Hill anyway if we can't coast on it?
That command begins to chime in between daily duties, like a refrain. It explodes automatically from the ever-smiling photographer as he adjusts you just to suit his liking. For the Annual must come out and there must be pictures; individual pictures, pictures of this group, pictures of that organization, pictures, pictures, pictures.
We underestimate the photographer's service to humanity. He preserves for posterity the best of expressions and poses. Optimism must have originated with him. He insists on seeing the best in everything. He improves the material with which he works. He smooths out a wrinkle here, a blemish there, and—behold the result of his labors. Posterity has the product for adulation.
When making a trip to the photographer, first of all remember the gravity of the situation. A photograph is not a thing, to be treated lightly. It is not a thing that is 'here today and gone tomorrow.' It will be preserved for future generations to gaze upon. Therefore, assume an expression indicative of 'intellectual curiosity,' an expression of hunger for knowledge.
Who knows, someone, in future years, may gaze upon your face and say: "He is my inspiration, the origin of all my worthy ambitions"—and all the glory is due to the photographer who has caught and transmitted your expression of a love for wisdom
DO SOME TELEPHONING Central, give me 2485W.
Is this 2485W? Is Miss Frances Snow there? This is the S. & S. club at 1424 Indiana street. We have some clothing here that we want to go to Belgium and northern France. You'll all for it? Thanks, Goodby.
Very simple, but that is all you have to do to get action on the proposition of sending clothing to the suffering in Belgium and France. They don't want your best clothes. All they ask is that you dig out some of the clothes that would probably just be in your way after all. You can combine the double function of getting them out of the way and at the same time perform a service, the value of which the average student in an off-hand thought could not realize.
They need your help. Will you turn a deaf ear?
EVERYBODY OUT!
Coach Patterson of the track team complains of a lack of pep from the men of his squad. The men are not turning out for practice as they should. With the spring contests looming up over the horizon, such should not be the case at this time of the year.
The University has the material to put out the best track team in the Missouri Valley. There is no excuse for our not doing so. These men who have ability along track lines, should get out and do their very best for Kansas. Those who have never tried out, ought to at least attempt it.
You may be a cinder track artist of unusual adveptism. Perhaps you've never had the time, or thought much about the matter. But now is the time for you to hustle yourself over to the gym some afternoon, hunt up Coach Patterson, and tell him you want to be given a try-out. Perhaps it will be you who will make that needed point to help make Kansas an ever victorious track team this spring.
A CHANCE FOR ALL
The Harvard Crimson has begun the publication of a series of articles on the opportunities afforded college men in various occupations. Politics, diplomacy, law, medicine, farming, teaching and the ministry are the subjects which have been chosen. The leading authorities on these matters will write the articles which will appear in the Crimson, and in this way the University hopes to interest those students who are as yet undecided which profession to follow.
A newspaper story states that an education may be obtained at the University of Pekin for $3.00. Suspicious!

I REMEMBER
Difficulty in securing a roost to an land blocked these first plans. Two years later the development of the people and the heroic deaths of some of the young men of Kansas seemed to Mr. Lawrence to give both a reason and a name for a college, and he then wrote the Rev. Mr. Nute, of Lawrence, and Governor Robinson. At the same time, he turned over to trustees a fund of $10,000 to be used in building a college which should "perpetuate those martyrs of liberty who fell during the recent struggle. Beneath it, their dust shall rest. In it shall burn the light of liberty, which shall be extinguished till it illumine the whole continent. It shall be called the 'Free State College,' and all the friends of freedom shall be invited to lend it a helping hand."
CONCERNING DRILL
Editor Kansan:
The question of military drill, which has been discussed at some length in your columns is worthy of mention. The question of coalition and invasion. I for one want to register a protest against any attempt to institute the system in the University of Kansas, and my own arguments in favor of it; I am open to conviction.
I believe, first, that it is unnecessary. I also contend that schools are no place in which to spread the doctrines of militarism—it is common knowledge what the war creed in the universities of Germany has done.
I remember, I remember,
The dri-trees dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky;
It was a childish ignorance,
But now 'tis little joy.
To know I'm farther from Heaven
Than when I was a toy.
——Thomas Hood.
I wish my finances were so that I could give you an order to go on and build at once; but that is out of the question. My share in the transaction will be to pay one hundred dollars every month, and I think I can continue to do that, if my health is spared for some time to come. The only condition which shall be imposed is that you shall not mention to any one, nor intimate to any one, except Mr. Pomeroy (with whom you may advise, you having imposed the same injunction on him), from whence the money proceeds, except that you may say, when it is necessary to do so, that it is sent to you from Massachusetts. The building when completed should be a handsome one
I believe further that the average college student has little time to devote to drill, and that his time and energies could be spent to better advantage in some other way. Further, where it is employed in the land grant colleges, drill is quite universally abhorred.
Perhaps those who are advocating it are not sinsee. If they are really worried about the fate of the Republic, and were not merely, they could make a grand statement, they could Compulsory drill is not necessary; military science can be obtained in the militia, if anyone wants it.
Anti-military.
Almost everyone knows that Lawrence was named for S. A. Lawrence, an Eastern man who was in the Kansas struggle for freedom. But not so many people are familiar with the part he played in the founding of the University of Kansas.
As was to be expected, the New Englanders who settled in the vicinity of the present-day Lawrence, began at once to talk of founding a college. In a letter to Dr. Robinson in 1854, Mr. Lawrence said, "You have laid out grounds for a college and it will be a good one, without doubt, in time; but in the first place, you must have a preparatory school where the boys shall be fitted for college. It should be for boys and not for girls. There may be a girls' school, too, but the boys should be cared for first."

75,000 TRAINED MEN
Majority Under 45 and Physically Fit; Have Drilled in Agricultural Schools
With all the discussion of preparedness and the part the colleges must play in the military affairs of the country, many people do not realize that these colleges are states of agricultural schools who are living today, and who have had four years military training. Estimates show that two-thirds of these men are under 45 years of age, and at least 60% of them physically fit for service.
Military tactics in agricultural schools go back to 1862 when Senator Morrill of Vermont conceived the idea that the sales from public lands should go toward maintaining in the states of the Union, colleges where military tactics be taught. Such colleges have existed ever since, if not by the money from public lands, from appropriations by the states themselves. Until 1895, the military training was rather inefficient, since the colleges used up all the old equipment left from the Civil War, and were trained old veterans. In 1896, they systematic training themselves, for the teaching of military tactics. Since then, however, the training has been of the very best, despite the fact that many people regretted that fifty colleges in the United States were instilling military spirit in the youth of the nation; however, that these graduates are lovers of war, merely because they are versed in the art of war.
This body of military trained civilians, which has been taken no cognizance of by Congressman Gardner, does not count as United States diplomatic possesses or can exact duplicate

In order that the purpose of the Big Sister Movement may be known definitely, ten aims of the organization have been drawn up by the Big Sister committee. Heretofore Big Sisters have not seized all and all the duties expected of them. For this reason the following aims have been set forth;
1. To help Little Sisters to enroll.
2. To help Little Sisters with school work if they are having trouble with it.
5. To make "get acquainted" calls on the faculty.
3. To see the Little Sisters as often as possible, especially if they are ill or discouraged.
4. To have "room parties" with Little Sisters.
6. To take Little Sisters to the regular Y. W. C. A. meetings and to interest them in the work of the organization.
7. To uphold all rules of the Women's Student Government.

10. To love and teach Little Sister,

By helping Little Sisters with school work does not imply that the Big Sisters are to teach. It is simply means that Big Sisters should assist their Little Sis-
ers with difficult work if possible, "Room parties" may take the form of chating dish parties or anything else that involves entertainment for a paediatric evening.
Since so many of the student body desire to know the faculty better the Big Sisters have adopted the idea of making informal calls.

To Continue Matinee Dances
Send the Daily Kansan home.
A quarter of a century ago, on a 35x50 foot floor in the gymnasium of the Y. M. C. A. College at Springfield, he asked his students if boys, first tried out his newly invented game of basketball which he had devised in an effort to provide some sort of leisure and entertainment, would furnish plenty of vigorous exercise and fun for the students.
In a way, it might be said, football was brought indoors. Peach baskets were made to serve as goals, and the ball was changed to be thrown instead of kicked. A bystander, noticing the peach-basket goals and round ball, exclaimed, "Uh!！A new game!" and called for the only name this time had.
This "new game" grew popular with such great rapidity that in a very short time it had developed into an international sport. As a result of having originated in an international institution, it was carried to the ends of the earth by members of that first team. One player went to China, another to India, another to Japan, and others scattered over the United States. The simple fact there was absolute need for such a game at the close of football season readily gave it a place in the world of athletics.
INDOR GAME FOR POOTHALL MEN
In telling how he came to invent basketball,
"When the football season was over the boys lay around the gymnasium and seemed to lose all interest in athletics. They did not take well to gymnastics and there was nothing they could do. Then I perceived the idea of bringing football indoors and eliminating the roughness of the game, which lay in tackling, by ruling that the person catching the ball should not run with it but stay stationary. Then the matter of goals to be used presented another difficulty. Clearly a large perpendicular goal like those used on a football or soccer field would not do because balls drift down into the players would smash up things too badly. Therefore, I decided on taking two small boxes with the top sides knocked out and placing one at each end of the floor. The ball, which had a diameter of 10 cm, would first have to describe an are which would necessitate its being thrwn easily.
"I asked the janitor for a couple of boxes measuring about fifteen inches across the top. He did not have any this small but he brought me two peace-haskets of this size which disinfect just as easily to the floor when suddenly the thought came to me that all the goal keeper would have to do to keep his opponents from throwing goals would be simply to sit on the basket. So I knocked the bottom of the basket. I walked through them ten feet above the floor. All goals have been placed at that height ever since.
RULES ALMOST THE SAME
"The rules, too, have remained almost the same and have reinforced the first rules written by himself and published in the early nineteen—January 1892, to be exact—under the head "A New Game" in the "Triangle," a monthly issued by the Springfield Training School.
RULES ALMOST THE SAME
FOR RENT—1 large front room for two boys. Well lighted and heated.
221 Teen. 79-3*
"In those days we had no such thing as 'free throws.' Three fouls made in succession by one side counted as a goal thrown; for the other side which made an attempt, it does today. The other players on one side raised all the way from nine to forty, depending on the size of the gymnasium. The player with the ball in his hand was not allowed to take a single step but must throw it from the basket, stepping and dribbling are allowable. With the exception of these few changes the rules have remained practically the same."

Wedell is Back After Assisting in Religious Campaigns
“Dutch” Wedell is again in his office in Myers Hall after being away since the sixth of the month Manhattan and at Norman, OKla.
RETURNS FROM Y. M. WORK
"The Aggie and Oklahoma campaigns were very successful," said Wedell in telling of his trip. The leading spirit in each was Raymond Robins and, believe me, he made a strong appeal to those men when he told the story of his political experience in the seventeenth ward music ministry in the Industrial Conflict, and when he spoke upon the Changing Social Order, with all of which K. U. students are familiar.
"The campaigns were managed very similarly to the Mott-Robins campaign of last year. There was a campaign committee of approximately on hundred men and as a re-creation of the campaigns, 800 decisions were made.
"After leaving Norman Mr. Robins will cover the greater part of the United States, assisting in campaigns in many of the principal schools and colleges of hisinery tackles him at Austin, where he will visit the University of Texas for a week, all across the southern and central states, up into New England as far as the University of Maine, at Orono, and ending up the season at the United States at Annapolis, Md., on May 7."
Wedell served as secretary of the committee force which had the campaign at Manhattan in hand and which looked after the attendance and personal interviews. Other leaders who assisted in the campaign, L. Hammond, J. I. Childs, H. H. Graffton, E. J. Simonda, K. A. Kennedy, and numerous others not directly connected with the Y. M. C. A. work.

GO SOUTH, YOUNG MAN
Newspaper Editor Sees Opportunities for Journalists in Foreign Work
"A new cra is at hand for the American newspaper," said Walter Johnson, managing editor of the Topeka Capital in a talk to the students of journalism Wednesday afternoon. "The upheaval in European politics is bringing us into closer touch with the world," he said, field for the newspaper man. South America's commercial and economic life is also becoming more and more closely identified with our own," continued Mr. Johnson, "and this is giving us still another field for expansion to which newspaper men ought to be turning. A knowledge of modern technology is essential to the newspaper man of the future, as will also economics, sociology and psychology.
"If you have an ambition to mould public opinion and are willing to get down and 'dig', you have your great potential," Johnson told the students. "City, state, and national administrations are made or broken by the news writers of the country." He placed the emphasis above the influence of the editorial.
Accuracy, celerity, brevity, are the cardinal virtues of the reporter, the substance of opinions expressed by a number of active newspaper men which Mr. Johnson quoted, that he "said that the author is the first request." A 'nose for news', honesty, ability to make and keep friends, a good foundation in ordinary grammar and spelling, skill in using the typewriter, the capacity to take and obey orders and the power to exert control over the manner, were named as qualities which should supplement the ones given first place. A number of newspaper men quoted repeated Mr. Johnson's recommendation of a knowledge of economics, sociology, and the modus operandi of government granted and leave nothing to be taken for granted," was an admonition often repeated.
TWO INDIAN DANCES BY
SKILTON ARE POPULAR
Two Indian dances composed by Charles S. Skilton, professor of organ at the University of Kansas, are meeting with approval in the east. Last week the two compositions—the Deer Dance and the War Dance—were given before the Boston Art Club and the Twelfth Avenue Music Association String Quartet. As a result of the popularity of Professor Skilton's compositions, the Zoellens will use them regularly on the programs for encores.
"I wish you could have been in Boston to have witnessed the enthusiasm displayed after your dances were played," writes Joseph Zoellner to Mr. Skilton. "They will certainly remember." "They expressions of pleasure from musicians who were present at our concert come to us often."

LORENZ ON COMMITTEE SERVE LUNCH IN GYM
TRY! XTRAY!
Appointed Chairman of State Body Which Will Co-operate With Army
H. A. Lorenz, instructor in physical training, has been appointed chairman of the state committee, which will cooperate with the national committee and the United States Army on the matter regarding the summer military training camp for students and business men. The object of the committee is to help the central association put before the people the information regarding this movement.
In July, 1913, the first training camp for students was held on the field of Gettyburg. The plan originated with Major-General Wood, U. S. A., and was part of the plan to arouse the young men of the country to a sense of their military responsibility, much more important than much interest that in 1914 and 1915, similar camps were held in different parts of the country.
Mr. Lorenz attended the camp at Plattsburg, N. Y. General Wood said, "I have inspected those 1,800 mech and their knowledge of military tactics surprised me. They have learned more in their five weeks' work, than the militia learns in three years or the regulars in six months."
"The scope of the work is immense," said Mr. Lorenz. "There are in this country 750,000 young men between the age of 19 and 24 who are fit for military training. A considerable proportion of these men are ready and eager to equip themselves to serve in war." The aim is to present to them. Such a plan is the summer training camp of the regular army.
GEN. WOOD SURPRISED
"The aim of the military training camp for students is to give the men four or five weeks military instruction under officers of the regular army in case of war, they would be in a position to officer the volunteer troops.
SUMMER CAMPS FOR STUDENTS
"The students attending these camps are well taken care of," says Mr. Drinker. "They have a five weeks vacation, pleasurable and beneficial to them, and the instruction, training, field surveying, given them, in the continuous five weeks' training, an insight into military matters. They are, in addition to the regular work, given ample time for recreation and socialization by authorities and students of the universities and colleges of the country."
President Henry S. Drinker of Lehigh University, is secretary of the advisory committee, which is composed of the presidents of Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Prairie, University California, Hima and Vanderbilt.
Women's Basketball Squad to Combine Lunch and Workout in Gym
Soup, piping hot, wienies and crisp, buttered toast will be served to order in the gymnasium every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1 to 1:30 o'clock for the Women's Freshmen basketball squads which are practicing three times a day at noon.
"We just simply couldn't get the floor for practice," said Miss Hazel Pratt. "The men were always on there when we wanted to use it, and so the women just decided to do their work at noon. We have fine practices from 12:20 to 1:00 o'clock, then while the girls are dressing our lunch is heating on the hot plate and we give a half hour of feast and fun."
The women are enthusiastic about the plan and are always out for practice. Games with other teams are being discussed by the Women's Athletic Association, and it is very probable that a game with the Bonner Springs high school five will be scheduled soon.
"The basketball games will be in the hands of the Women's Athletic Association altogether next year." The women, to have many good, fast games.

When Caesar sent his famous message "Veni, Vidi, Vici" to Rome announcing his victory at Zela, messengers carried it, but when Coach Hamilton sends a similar message to Washington, he is carried at Columbus February 15, it will be carried by the electromagnetic waves oscillated from the new wireless plant at the University of Missouri. The message will be received at the local wireless plant where the waves will be intercepted for the opu-
pose by the obeys department.
Hamilton Will Use Wireless to Announce K. U. Victory
The local wireless plant is proving useful in a number of ways. Messages are received and sent from the campus to Michigan, South Dakota, Washington University, and other places where wireless stations are located. The reception message was received from Graceland College, In., for a K, U, student.
There is also a wireless arrangement by which the correct astronomical time is received twice a day at the physics building and the clock in the seismograph is corrected to within one-tenth of a second of the exact time. (This is not the clock on top of Blake Hall.)
K. U. has had its wireless plant installed for nearly a year. Such plants are now being installed in most of the universities of the country.

PREFER LIBERAL ARTS
Few University of Kansas Students Enroll in Vocational
Courses
Students in the University of Kansas prefer the courses offered in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to the so-called vocational courses, according to statistics just compiled in the office of the Registrar.
The number of graduates from the College has increased almost 20 per cent in the last fifteen years. In 1900, with a total enrollment of 1150 students, 40 per cent of the graduates had been enrolled with an enrollment of 2812 students, the number graduated from the College was 59.44 per cent of the total.
SYSTEM IS INVESTIGATING
Four years ago, System, a Chicago magazine devoted to business, discovered, from reports submitted by the leading colleges and universities of the country that interest in the class of college students is the most students preferred. vocational courses which fitted them for earning a livelihood. System is making another investigation now to see what the trend in education is today. States have made schools and the article will be published in the March number.
The percentage of graduates from the School of Engineering in 1900 was 7.5 per cent of the total; in 1915 15.15 per cent of the total. The percentage remains comparatively the same as in 1900. The School of Pharmacy graduated 10 per cent in 1900 and decreased to 5.5 per cent in 1915. The School of Electronics graduated from 3 per cent to almost 5 per cent of the total number of graduates.
In 1906 the School of Medicine was added to the courses offered by the University and in 1911 the School of Education.
ADDED VOCATIONAL COURSES
A differentiation of the courses in the College makes it possible for students to fit themselves for life work as they are offered courses in home economics, journalism, commerce, teaching, design, and several other courses. A marked decrease in the number of students taking ancient language.
SOCIAL COMMITTEE TO MEET WITH MRS. BROWN
The University Social Committee composed of sixteen members representing the student body, will meet with Mrs. Eustace Brown tonight to elect a chairman and con- dition secretary for the welfare of the student body.
"We shall discuss the advisability of several measures this evening," was the comment of Mrs. Brown. The three day time limit within which she will be scheduled closing of events when the chapern leaves; and the sending out of cards to all chaperns after an event has been staged to be filled out stating at what time the affair ended and on what date the office all shall be discussed tonight.

Both Teams Expect Victory in Basketball Game on Robinson Gym. Court
FARMERS HAVE VETERANS
And Will Try to Atone for Past Jayhawker Victories
Coach Carl J. Merrer, a man of no little reckoning because of his association with K. S. A. C. athletics, arrived in Lawrence this afternoon on Union Street. In fact, he brought with him eight men, the pick of the Aggie school from the standpoint of ability to perform on the basketball court. These eight men will stage their show with Robinson Gymnasium at 7:15 tonight.
A feeling of confidence came with this little party of Manhattanites for they think that their prospects for a life in New York are brighter than usual this year. They have never failed in past years to pick at least one feather from the proud Jayhawk's tail during the game, but they also have a desire to "jerk 'em all out."
Possibly they have good reason to think they can win the whole series of four games. They have six letter men on the trip and can depend upon playing five of them the time unless something happens. Their showing with the same team last year was good, but the best of the new Kansas five. But they are here to fight and they will fight.
MERNER EXPECTS BATTLE
Coach William O. Hamilton holds just about the same opinion. He has said that he have to play the best they have this season but he expects his men to win.
"We will have to play real basketball at Lawrence in order to defeat the Kansas fans," said Coach Merner. "We are going to revolt." "We are coining down to win, thou."
The game tonight will begin at 7:15 and will be over by 8:15, which will only take an hour's time from the busy studie who is spending the hours indoors these days. A mistake was made in the list of prices advertised for the clubs because they may be reserved for twenty-five cents stead of fifty. The same teams will play tomorrow night at the same time and in the same place.
The Aggie players who accompanied Coach Merner on the visit to K. U. are: Captain Adams, Reynolds and Van Trane, forwards; MacIrath and Leonard, centers; Ramssey, McMillan will stop at Tampa on his return trip to play a return game with the leabod five.

The University of Kansas has seen the birth and death of many student publications during its half century of history. The first of these, The Kane, was published in 1874, eight years after the foundation of the school, under the direction of the Natural History Society. It was a three-column quarter, and bears little resemblance to the Daily Kan-ger newspaper, for each anniversary this number celebrates.

It was issued intermittently for three years, under the editorship of William Osborn, with Chas. S. Gleed, present editor of the Kansas City Journal, for reporter.

Abbey a noble woman, with faith in the devil and in her mother's will. She was born in the district of Abingdon and educated at Eton College, where she was taught by the best. Afterward, she entered the University of Oxford, where she studied French, Latin and English. In 1896 she married the famous French writer Jean Jules Mabert. They had five children: Claude (married to Josephine), Emmanuel (married to Émile), Claude (married to Émile), Amélie (married to François), and Charlotte (married to Charles). She was known for her beauty and her intelligence. At the age of 25, she began teaching French at Oxford University. She was the first female professor in French and the first female teacher in English. She was also one of the first women to become a professor of French at the University of Paris. She was a member of the Society for the Advancement of Knowledge and the Royal Academy of Science.
Abbey was also a prolific author. Her works include "Le Petit Prince" (1874), "The Last Sight" (1875), "The Guest" (1876), "The Great Dress" (1877), "The Lady's Dream" (1878), "The Woman of Time" (1879), "The Flower of Life" (1880), "The Garden of Earthly Delights" (1881), "The Book of the Week" (1882), "The New York Times" (1883), "The Chicago Tribune" (1884), "The New York Times" (1885), "The New York Times" (1886), "The New York Times" (1887), "The New York Times" (1888), "The New York Times" (1889), "The New York Times" (1890), "The New York Times" (1891), "The New York Times" (1892), "The New York Times" (1893), "The New York Times" (1894), "The New York Times" (1895), "The New York Times" (1896), "The New York Times" (1897), "The New York Times" (1898), "The New York Times" (1899
attempt to consolidate the two was frustrated by opposition from the Courier staff, after which Bion Hutchins, Pliny Soper, and Scott Hopkins bolted to the Collegiate, taking with them Timons, editor of the Courier. The Collegiate was changed to the College; The Company's representative of the Courier staff resented the action, and refused to let the sheet die, although an obituary appeared in the rival paper. The business office saved the day for the Review however, by persuading Chancellor Marvin to give a written statement vouching for the consolidation. When the Courier found itself unable to get financial support, and suspended for lack of revenue.
A FAMOUS STAFF
The Review began with Colin Timmons as editor. W. H. Curruth soon succeeded him, however. Florence Finch, since become well-known as a writer in New York, was a regular contributor, and Clint Fujita, now editor of the Fujita Register, began his journalistic work in the columns he Review.
Factionalism developed on the staff, and one fraternity gained the ascendency, the Courier was revived by Edmond Butler, L. H. Leach, Alebert Riffle, C. C. Dart, B. K. Bruce, Mille M. Cille, C. K. Bruce, in 1882, for issuing seventeen numbers, an amicable arrangement was reached with the Review, and the Courier again died, with the idea of saving a single improved paper.
W. Y. MORGAN'S BEGINNING Dissatisfaction caused another revival in 1884, the "Weekly Courier" to the students and organizations who did not like the way in which the control of the Review was exercised. B. Preston, John Sullivan, W. Y. Morgan were chiefly responsible.

The News, a weekly under Review management, came out to combat the growing popularity of the New Courier, but the battle was a losing fight from the start, and the venture was wholly unsuccessful. A special suppal told the courtyard with an observant and graveyard scenes, tells the story vividly.
Two Couriers arrived in '85-'86, the Phi Gam Courier and the Sullivan Courier. Morgan and some of the Phi Gams ejected Sullivan from the executive position. He objected, however, and continued to issue a paper. Finally he got the name copyrighted, from the government for the suspension of the Phi Gam sheet. Later Sullivan sold out for a hundred dollars.
In October, '88, the Currier heralded a new journalistic venture in this wise: "Weak, wan, and tired-looking, the Times made its appearance in a book called *The Times*. The Times was engineered by individuals and organizations not represented on the Review, W. A. White was on the staff. L. A. Stebbins was on the staff." A single volume was issued, but that one was attractive and well-written.
The Times had a salutary effect on its rival, as it announced itself as wholly representative of all the students and not of any clique. Students agreed to patronize only those merchants who would advertise in it. In the Stigma Nus bought a third interest in Courtier from Phi Gams and Phi Psis.

The Times merged into the University Kansan, whose nameakes you are reading, and announced the death of Dr. Werner Thiers, a professor of puervity and vitality, the Courier refused to be killed, and was distributed just a little before the Times' obituary appeared. The Courier was curious after a two years' struggle.

Just one day preceding the appearance of the ground-hog, one Maloy Maloy appeared and east his shadow in the blackest of printers' ink. Hank enlisted him to join in Expression." The second cartoon bore the title, "The First, Freshman Arrives." During the last of the school year a series appeared, "Recent Events in Black and White."

WANT TO KNOW WHEN A MORGUE IS NOT A MORGUE?
The present senior class should not feel that they bear the distinction of being the only class to adopt a class baby. In 1912 the Class of 1911 adopted a class baby in the person of Lois Emma Baer.
It is indeed a small newspaper that does not have its morgue. The morgue is the place where a newspaper keeps news that was once alive, but isn't there anymore for purposes of reference. In the Daily Kansan's morgue are filed news clippings, each week's issues of several of the large metropolitan and Kansas newspapers, the complete files of the papers, and volumes of newspaper text books. It makes one big reference book, and it keeps getting bigger all the time.
The coming of the Daily Kansas to its present location and the driving out of the medical students did not change, and would no longer have its morgue.
The statute books of the governing body of the University of Kansas, like the statute books of the legislative body of the state of Kansas, have obsolete laws that have long become covered. May 16 the Regents of the University placed a ban on all cigarette smoking on the campus.
Four years ago when the Daily Kansas was ushered into existence all the campus and the whole of Kansas lay under several inches of snow. The first issue of the paper tells of the two Carsons, Frank and Cale, student teachers and unable to return to their Monday morning classes.

Much publicity was given in the fall of 1912 to the fact that Marion Man-land had enrolled her as a teacher. Scholars have since disappeared from the rolls of the registrar.

Football came very near being ousted from the University in 1912 by the Regents, because the school had permitted a law student, Ahrens, to play football without properly registering as a student.

Last week the Pi Beta Phi women were complaining of burglaries entering their chapter house. The files of the Daily Kansan show that the same thing happened to the Pi Phis four years ago.
EXTRA! EXTRA! EXTRA!
Three special numbers of the Kansan have been issued so far this semester, aggregating a circulation of about eleven thousand copies. The religious number, which was sent to the archdiocese of Lüge, is schools of the state, the pharmacy number, which found its way to all the druggists, pharmacists and chemists of Kansas and lastly the birthday number, which in circulation has been limited to the faculty and students are also not the ones which have come off the press to date.
Kansan Gets Out Feature Numbers to Boost K. U.
More than 325,000 copies of the Kansan were mailed out over the state for the college year 1914-1915. These copies went to the high schools, to professional men and many other persons throughout the state of Kansas. The copies were numbered depicting K. U. was issued and distributed among the students.
Several more numbers will be issued during the coming semester. Plans have already been made and work started on the medical number of the students' institutions. This will take up in detail the work of the School of Medicine and will tell of the work at Rosedale. Also the free clinical work being done at the latter place will be described. This number will be sent to all the high schools in the city for general reading—to the high schools and to the doctors.
Another high school number will also be issued. All the departments of the University have become interested in these special editions and many requests have been received to co-operate with them in getting out a number to show what their particular departments are doing.

A REAL EXTRA, THIS
Scoop Club Issued Lawrence Journal, and Caused no End of Trouble
- "Clackley, clackley, tinkle," came the sounds. No, it was not an army approaching. It was only the sound coming from the great dining room at Buehrmann's. The Scoop club has assembled.
Have you never heard of the famous scoop Club? No? Then listen. Away back in '07 it was organized "for the purpose of promoting the welfare of newspaperdom" by the club. The requirement requisite to joining the club was that each member must have had the club for something he had written.
What times the "Scoopists" used to have! Talk to any of the former members, (for the old Scoop Club is no more), and they will tell you of the jaunts they used to take out to Buehrmann's, near Lake View, where they would have a good old fashioned supper and talk over all the "newspaper" could bring. Then they would catch the Santa Fe train home in the evening—and they would never tell whether or not they paid their fares!

THEY AWARED LAWRENCE

from the United States to
come and address them—or at least
try to get them. they would take
their weekly jaunts—usually to
Buehrmann's. they kept the University in an uproar over the stories they dug up and printed.
On April 25, 1908 they issued a Lawrence Journal that startled the whole state of Kansas; in fact, the paper arused comment all over the state and claimed the law required certain articles that set all the state in an uproar. It was an exposure and complete directory of the places in the east bottoms of Lawrence where intoxicating liquor was sold. The story began when a professor's article led to the arrest and conviction of seven bootleggers, and the students who had collected the evidence testified for the prosecution. All the bootleggers who were not convicted could go free. But no one did not dare to sell liquor, and the "East Bottoms" went dry in a hurry.
KEMP A MEMBER
Harry Kemp, celebrated Kansas Tramp Poet, was one of the members of the Scoop Club, and a contributor to this special number. And it was Kemp who got into trouble over his poem: "The Bottoms." He was accustomed to having bottoms, since he knew so much about them. However, Harry learned of "The Bottoms" in the same way as the other reporters; he spied on the activities without taking part in them. In 1912 the club died a natural death. Although it is gone, the old men still remember times, the jaundis, the special extras, the jolly crowds of newspaper men, the suppers at Buchmann's. No, in the minds of the "Scopists," there still lives "The Scoop Club."
Feature stories in the special were plentiful and freakish. Crime stories were greatly exaggerated. Some of the stories were: "Seized by a Negro," "Iota Tappa Keg," "Our Big Footed Women," "Sleeps in a Tree."
The College has been trying to establish a College Day since 1912.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
WHEN KANSAN STARTED
Daily Was First Issued Four Years Ago With Louis LaCoss as Editor
HAD VIGOROUS POLICIES
First Issues Took up Cudgel for Betterment of University
When the University Daily Kansan first made its appearance on the campus in 1912 as a daily newspaper, it was well known that it which gave active news and editorial support. Some of these ideas have long since become accomplished facts; others the Kansan is still nursing students; they will doubtless be realized in time.
With the first issue the newspaper began the agitation for a dormitory for women, urging and giving publicity to all projects proposed for the increasing of the funds for such a dormitory, with parts of the alumni the fund had been raised to $5,000, and during the remainder of the spring months were given a circus, a vaudeville, and down-town jitney shows. In addition the Daily Kansas printed many news stories about serial comments bearing on the matter.
With the first issue on January 16 under the editorial of Louis LaCoss and the managing editorship of George Marsh, prizes were offered for the best high school reporting covering the remainder of the school year. The prize was awarded by the judges, of whom Gov. Arthur Capper was one, to John Gleisner of Abilene, now a member of the Daily Kansan staff, and last year editor-in-chief. The second prize of fifteen dollars went to James B. McKay of Olathe, also a member of the Daily Kansan staff. The carrying of high school correspondence was discontinued after the ensuing year.
The University Pastime.
Another hobby, which has always been good material for news stories on dull days—was the plan to have a University cafeteria. The plan was put into operation. The cafeteria was built in an unusual basement but finally ate itself out of its house and home. The students were willing enough to patronize the Hall boarding house; but because of lack of room and possibly through a system of secretive ject failed. Later, an unsuccessful effort was made to revive it.
The Daily Kansan started a movement to secure for the school new and small songs. Prizes were offered but no one appeared to claim the promised money.
Three or four times each week short stories written by college students were printed on the editorial page. The first story that appeared, "The Dub," was written by Sol H. Lewis, who later, for two years, was an administrator in the department, is now editor-owner of the Lyndon (Wash.) Tribune.
When, in 1912, Kansas and Missouri played their first games ever played on McCook Field, the athletic department charged a fee of one dollar would be assessed holders of the enterprise coupons for admission to the game. This brought the cost of discussion within the Kansan state time the policy of the publication way
The fall of 1912 was a time of many class and football smokers, and it was the ushering in of a new political era for K. U. It was during this year that a fight was made against the freshman cap ruler. Athletic en- trenches were built in Missouri war to play Kansas in the game that was to open McCook Field.
THE UNIVERSITY MASTERING
WEEKLY MAIL.
INTRODUCTORY
We are pleased to announce the opening of a new master's degree program in Business Administration at The University Mastering. This program will provide students with a comprehensive understanding of business management principles and practices, as well as practical skills for the job market. Students will receive a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration from The University Mastering upon completion of the coursework.
BASE BALL
For the first time, the university has announced that it will be hosting a baseball tournament in the fall season. The event will feature a selection of college-level players competing in various league divisions. The championship game will take place on Sunday, October 15th, at 7:00 p.m. at the University's tennis facility.

The freshman class of 1912, now the grave and reverend senior class, shattered the tradition only once during the fall term. It was not until the following spring that the Daily Kansan was obliged to read for one hour each regard to the freshman cap tradition.
The Kansan, during its first year,
had Hank Maloy. Whenever things
got dull, Hank would furnish the
front page with humorous cartoons of
K. U. lfeh. Whenever editorial com-
panies tried to appeal to the
subjects of class loyalty, school courte-
sy, cheating, and original K. U. songs.
WORK FOR LOVE OF IT
Editors of Kansan Receive no Pay For Their Services
In days past the editors of the Kansan used to work, not alone for the "love of the doing," but for a cash consideration. In fact, even last year he and the news editor were paid for the work they did. "Tis a different tale now."
Fame, and little of that, is the reward of these two offices this year. Men have been found in the department who are willing to devote their time and efforts toward making the paper a success. Men who were working for a salary last year are now working for nothing.
Of course the Kansan is not the only paper which does not pay its staff, but it is one of the few. The Yale News, run on a profit-sharing plan, turns over $4,000 each year to be divided among the editors of the. The editor of the Michigan Daily reads $100 a year (for his services). The Indiana Student pays its editor $100 a term. Jumping to the western coast, the Emerald of the University of Oregon pays its editor $100 a year.
Fifty of the 1438 students of the University of Oklahoma hall from beyond the boundaries of that state are from India, Mexico and Russia.
WOMEN IN JOURNALISM
Make Good at the Work and More Enter the Department Each Year
Only within the last years have the women in the University of Kansas been very active in the department of journalism, and it was but four years later that a student man student to the Kansan Board was thought a revolutionary thing.
UNIVERSITY TIMES
UNIVERSITY KANSAN
THE STUDENT'S JOURNAL
Lucy Barger, who was graduated from the University in 1914, was the first woman student to gain a place for herself on the Kansan. Up to now she had been formally conceded to the men, and no woman had had the courage or the desire to try to gain a place. Miss Barger, being elected to the Kansan Board of Directors, while in school she was one of the most active members of the staff, and did some special writing in addition to her school work. After leaving Miss Barger did work for the Balcony Club. She is now on the Balcony Union.
OTHERS FOLLOWED
At the same time that Lucy Barger was paving the way for future classes of women journalists, Helen Rhodia Hoopes was gaining attention to her literary work, both through the columns of the Kansan and in magazines. While Miss Hoopes was never as closely related to the Kansan as Miss Barger was always been associated as one of her authors in journalism at Kansas University. She is now an instructor in the University.
Maurine Fairweather was the second woman to "make" the Kansas Board, and was the society editor. She was followed by Lucile Hildinger, who was elected in 1914, and served for one year. Miss Hildinger graduates this year and expects to go into journalistic work at once.
Helen M. Hayes, who graduated in 1914, was also a shining light among the women journalism students. She was associate editor during her senior year. She is now on the Great Bend Tribute. Miss Hayes was city attorney of the Lawrence Gazette for several years following her graduation, before she went to college.
A K. U. product who is making a mark on the world of newspapers is Hannah Kirkland Mitchell is a graduate of the Pulitzer Prize and Journalism in New York City, but got her interest in newspaper writing here where she took work in the department of journalism. She is now the Tell-Me-A-Story lady of the Sunday Kansas City Star.
POPULARITY GROWS
More women enroll in the journalism classes each year, and where it used to be unusual for one to complete them, students now graduate several each year.
Zetha Hammer, a senior in the department, from Salt Lake, Utah, is now serving as editor of the Kansan. She has also been on the Kansan since it has been in existence at K.U. She was elected to the Kansan board last spring, one of three who were elected at that time. Miss Hammer will work her work after her graduation in June.
Caroline Greer, a graduate of last year, has done much special work and this summer edited the women's page of a paper gotten out by the Swope Settlement in Kansas City. Miss Greer has combined her journalism with sociological work and investigation.
BIG ISSUES FAILED

But the Kansan Accomplished Some of the Little Things It Advocated
The Kansan for the school year 1914-15 was characterized by definite and fundamental policies. Some of the fights started were such that imbalance not possibly be expected, but many of which white things were accomplished.
The mill tax was the big issue of last year. The Kansan did all in its power to arouse the students to action, both by means of individual effort and by work through county clubs. While the measure did not pass the legislature, advertising has made better the chance for its passage next year.
The Kansan conducted two other losing fights for big issues last year; one for the improvement of Lawrence water, used on the Hill, and the other for a permanent student union. While neither of these ideals were attained, agitation was beneficial. The water was provided for spring and the spring. The lesson learned in the death of the student union will help make the next attempt a success.
Long before the coming of John R. Mott and his fellow-workers, the Kansan began its campaign to prepare the way for his work among the students. The campaign was a success and the Dinka-Kansan is proud of its small share.
Mary of the Kansan policies and campaigns resulted more satisfactorily. Among these were the efforts to assist the White Cross and the Red Cross with the result that more than $3,000 was raised at the K. U. Other campaigns which proved successful either last year or this are: the adoption of a point system, obtaining hooks in the Administration Building, a uniform on McCook, a uniform accounting系站, a cutting place, open library stacks at night. Among the things that must not be forgotten is the agitation last year for better understanding of the University Infirmary.
It has always been a Kansan policy to give facts of value on student problems as they are handled here and elsewhere, such as student government. Last year extracts from good books were printed to develop a taste in reading. Effort was made to adapt a better acquaintance, both among students and faculty, between the faculty and students. This was done by featuring smokers, encouraging hikes, and suggesting new forms of "getting together."
SOUGHT FOR MILL TAX
Clearing Potter's Lake for skating and Class memorials were two issues that the Kansan fought out to satisfy factory close. But three other measures failed: the student union and the book-store, and the condition of the Lakesian city water was, as it is now, a problem treated out in the '13 papers.
January and February of this year saw another session of the Kansas legislature that was in favor of appropriating the University to fund thousands less than was needed to run school properly. The Kansan, aided by the Alumni Association and students, staged a fight for more money. The mill tax was a big issue in this session of the legislature, and the Kansan supported it firmly, but tax on non-resident students $175 entrance fee was opposed by the Kansan.
The Jayhawker was a financial failure in 1912 and the following year it seemed that there would be no annual. The Kansan took up the columns and owing to a publicity campaign, the year book is on its feet.
TRIED TO GET DORMITORIES
The records for the second year still find the Kansas waging a strong fight for dormitories for women. By editorsials and news managers to promote activities that helped increase reservoir fund that was started the year before. During the month of February 1913 the front pages of the paper contained maps showing the state service of the city, apartment, both as to locality and information about the state. This work had been taken up by the University but a year or two before and was not very well understood by the students and people of the state. The Kansas used this method in information campaign. The Kansas was able to solve the problems of returning the Kansas-Missouri Thanksgiving day football game to Kansas City. Editorials, news stories and communications, filled the pages of the Kansas and order to get at some minute a straw vote was taken among the students. But it seemed that all the power of the Kansas City Alumni and papers of that section of the country could not move the votes of the two schools and the game is still played on the home fields.
The general extension division of the University of Minnesota is offering a series of business courses by correspondence.

TOOTING OUR OWN HORN
to do
Being an Account of What the Kansan Does and Tries
Run by 200 of the 2500 students who are to shape the journalism of the next generation, the Kansan gives more in the line of news coverage than any person in the country. All reporters are instructed to keep posted on events and subscribers consider the Kansan office a bureau of information. An officer of fifteen questions a day are answered over the Kansan phone.
A column of store news, where students can find the most suitable articles needed, is run frequently and those taking advantage of the tips offered have found that money was saved as a result. Reporters devote ten or fifteen hours a week to reviewing the latest books and the magazine articles, giving to reader an opportunity a chance to go to the library and find such articles and stories in which they are interested without the trouble of going through piles of material holding no attraction.
The lead editorial on the second page every day concerns some problem of vital concern to any university student or faculty member. If that page is read carefully, the reader cannot help but keep up on matters of interest on the Hill that are arousing comment. One of the most valuable departments which is a "sacred cow" in the office is the campus opinion column. Believing University should be democratic in institutions, that the students should have a voice in the conduct of affairs as they do have in any democratic state, the Kansan throws open its columns to its readers that they may give their ideas concerning issues at hand.
By running choice bits of poetry and selected jokes and paragraphs, the paper attempts to give to its readers a portion of the best that is being written in the country in the leading magazines and newspapers. The exchange department keeps on the Hilt on in close touch with other schools and colleges, making it possible for anyone easily interested in any activity to follow that activity over the country at large.
Finally, it is the effort of the news editors and his assistants and the students poking under him to give a complete view of life as it exists on Mount Oread.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate anatomy; to go forwards than merely printing an anatomy; to go furtherdeals aids faculty hold; to play no favorites; to be clean; to teach notorious faculty to be courteous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads.

Where Sense is wanting, everything is wanting—Poor Richard's Almman.
THE PURPOSE OF THE DAILY KANSAN
To advance the political interests of some clique or organization and to help line the pockets of the editor with a little money, for which he has to account to no one—that is what the editor of a college paper would have told you a dozen years ago if you had asked him the purpose of his paper and pinned him down to the truth.
But during those ten or a dozen years college papers have gone through a stage of evolution, and college editors have become more purposeful. Today any college editor would tell you that the purpose of his paper is to become a vital force in college life by striking at the heart of dissensions, by smoothing out class friction, by working for that elusive element known as loyalty and spirit, by arousing public esteem for the institution, and by securing for his college or university the material comforts and necessities without which the institution cannot reach its fullest development.
That has been the aim and purpose of the Daily Kansan. In the four years of its existence it has made a few enemies, but it was not done intentionally, and it has made many thousand friends, for which it is very grateful. It has aroused unfavorable comment as well as favorable comment, but it is as proud of the one as it is of the other. It would not desire to be so spineless that everyone would agree with it.
It has embarked upon many campaigns, believing them to be for the best interests of the University. Among the material things that it has worked for and gained are cement sidewalks, electric fans, water coolers, a university hospital, relief funds for the Red and White Cross and the establishment of county clubs. It has even perused professors to dismiss classes on time.
Among the intangible things that it has worked for are the high regard of the people in the state and nation for the University of Kansas, the pride and loyalty of the student body and faculty in the institution, and friendly social relations between all classes, fraternity and non-fraternity. And because these things are intangible and we cannot know exactly when we have them, the Daily Kansan will continue to work for them through all its life.
Among the material comforts and necessities which we do not have for which the Kansan will continue to work are the completion of the Administration building and the erection of other buildings, a Commons, dormitories, an auditorium, a cooperative book store, a more highly beautified campus and better salaries and smaller classes for professors.
In all the four years there has been only one thing to dishearten the Daily
Kansan, only one thing that it cannot seem to hope to correct, only one thing that steadily defies all its efforts—that is the Physics clock.
GOOD OLD DAYS!
Again our minds revert to the good old days as quizzes draw near and we think of the appalling mass of information that the man behind the desk expects us to know, which we don't know, never knew, and feel with a heavy feeling in the pit of our stomachs—we will never know.
Wouldn't it be pure joy to have lived back in '67 when the program consisted of thirteen subjects and the faculty numbered three? In these days of strenuous living with 218 members of the faculty seeking prey and 543 subjects looming up like breakers ahead, the poor student doesn't stand a ghost of a chance to weather the storm. All we can do is to bow to the inevitable and murmur with Kipling—
"Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget—lest we forget!"
K. U. COMMUTERS
Did you ever think of Kansas City as a suburb of Lawrence?
It may become one in the near future. It has been announced that the new interurban will be carrying passengers every hour between these two cities by March 1st.
Will it be possible for a student to come to the metropolis of Lawrence every morning and return to his suburban home in Kansas City at night? The fare will probably be $1.00 for the round trip. The average student spends at least $7.00 a week for room, board and incidentals. If he made the round trip to Lawrence every school day, the fare would be $5.00 and his luncheons would cost him only about a dollar more.
Besides this additional saving of at least a dollar a week, the tired, overworked student would be able to revive his fagged out sprits in the peace of his suburban home every night, and return to the busy whirl of the world completely refreshed in the morning.
It will be a strain upon the W. S.
G. A., however, for it will either mean
extending the week night date rule
over the suburbs of Lawrence and enforcing this rule, or of giving students who live in such suburbs special privileges.
But since the commuters would be able to gain two hours' of sleep or study on their way to and from school, perhaps it might not be such a great sin if the Student Council did not bother to extend the date rule over the little suburb of Kansas City.
And just to think that they called Dutch Appel and Fat Nelson "midgets" on the K. U. basketball team!
No one can resist flattery without having the feeling that he is losing something by doing so.
A personal friend is one whom you can refuse a loan without offending him.
An old saying, revised for basketball players: "A rolling ball gathers no goals."
Sufficient evidence in the name, we contend, that Witter Bynner's mother divined he would some day be a poet.
FOUND IN A BOOK
Before we can bring happiness to others, we first must be happy ourselves; nor will happiness abide within ourselves unless we confer it on others. If there be a smile upon our lips, those around us will soon smile too; and our happiness will become the truer and deeper as we see that these others are happy. "It is not seemly that I, who, willingly, have wrought sorrow to none, should permit myself to be sad," said Marcus Aurelius in one of his honest passages. But are we not sadden ourselves, and learning to sadden others, if we refuse to accept all the happiness offered to man? - Maurice Maeterlinck.

CAMPUS OPINION
sorbid boon. Wordsworth.
ro the Editor of the Daily Kansan:
I would like to express my admiration for those who have made the Daily Kansan the new paper that it is, one not only newy, but one which has its own ideals, its own "tone" and one which has endeared itself to many students.
K. U, we say is not very large. Perhaps not, and yet we are always looking for some unifying factor. We fail generally to observe one that is right here at our command, a factor that is the most important of all.
Since I have been on the Hill the Kansan has never been so completely satisfying as this year. Here is hoping that the Kansan will continue to give such full satisfaction to the University and the student body.
To the Editor of the 'Kansas'
In the communication,
"Born written by
'THe Reason' he asks
why there has not been a course
in spelling offered at the University
Teacher man, student man, where are you doing?
Wordsworth.
For the Editor of the Kansan:
It is simple enough to understand that. Spelling is an elementary course of study that is taught in the grade schools and by the time that a person has reached college he should be able to spell fairly well If a college student asks this it is either the fault of his early years or the neglect on his part to apply himself during his younger days.
Little Sue could eat no sweets,
Spelling courses and old time spelling "bees" are both excellent, but the place for them is in the grade schools and not in colleges and universities where specialization is the prime object.
Her beau would smoke no smokes,
And so when they stop at —-

I will go to the Kanan to wish it
good morning.
EVOLUTION IN SPORTS
Another Soph.
A cruel and unusual punishment has been meted out to the student mind at Bowdoin, New York, University, and a Middle Western state university whose name is distinctly veiled. Some疑问 about a similar issue, as the location of Gallipolil and Saloniki, the identity of Venizelos, Viviani, Poincare, the names of the rulers of Greece and Turkey, were presented to certain college classes. The result was that Venizelos appeared as an author from a French poem to a Mexican short story, to a artist to the Premier of Italy, while Montenegro was impartially washed by every sea in Europe and eastern Asia.
DO YOU KNOW?
The Dean of Bowdoin questions whether students of New England colleges are very steady newspaper readers.—New Republic.
They always order Cokes.
EVOLUTION IN SPORN
It is significant that the old-time sport of discarded sports, and is being replaced by what is known as "water basketball." It is significant because it shows that Americans have begun to own one type of game of the old water-pool was such a beautiful example. Sporting enthusiasts are believing more and more that games ought to be fqn for those games as well as spectators.
Pringle tells us that he was the only student aboard the Oscar II who was not in bed when the ship arrived at Christiana. Eight-thirties can do a good deal for a man.
New York has a musical family named Ossip Gabriloswitsch. We'll venture they don't go in for simple music.
Little or no skill was called for by the old game. It was a drowning match pure and simple. Its successor, "water-basketball" is a great deal more human and nematical than its devotes to the possession of several hundred weight of flesh. —Harper's Weekly.
I will go with you if I may.

Prof. Arthur Mitchell's eight year old son belonged recently to a neighborhood skating club. The club may have been a roller skating club or that was of minor importance to the philosopher's son. He had been given $1.25 by his brother, gifts from the account he checked upon the young son heard the story of the cold and needy Belgian boys and girls. In the forenoon he pledged fifty cents of his $1.25 toward a relief fund. Other members of the club added their nickels, and dimes and pennies. By noon young Mitchell had raised his donation to "six-bits" and by night the entire account had been funded the Belgian brothers. The skating club is no more. It now parades under the title of the War Relief Club of West Sixth Street.

And in Addition, Euselio Barba,

Work
HE CARRIES 29 HOURS STORY OF THE KANSAN
ENROLLED IN LAW SCHOOL
Found Medicine Distasteful, so
Became Cunim Jim's Disciple
Twenty-four hours of law, five hours of French, outside work from 1 to 3 o'clock, study from 8 until 12 at night and back at the grind at 4 o'clock in the morning is the schedule set by Eusello Harpa, middle law, from Mahlahi Philippine Island, where Harpa is trying, he shows the Americans that his people are not as dull as they are thought to be.
"When I was home I did not realize what you people thought about us," Barbara said, "You see I went to common school for about four years and then I went to another school ordered up over two years of college. All the way through I was taught how much Americans knew so, of course, I supposed you were taught the right things about us. Since I came over I found people that were so ignorant they did not know that you had clothes or territory. I have come that University to help show them their mistake."
DISCIPLE OF UNICLE JIMMIE
Barba came to this country a year and a half ago and by chance found a job. Being interested in medicine he hunted up Dr. Mervin Sudler, Associate Dean of the School of Medicine. A few trips to the dissecting rooms convinced Barba that he could be dropped that line and took up work in "Uncle Jimmy's" school. This he found more to his liking and his experience in government work in the Islands, where he had been employed for two half years, helped him to get started.
"One thing that seems a little hard is that I cannot practice when I get back," said Barba, "I have been taking common law this year knowing all the rules; but the same as ours, common law tells me from nine months to a year to learn the differences and enter practice after I get to Manila. I may never—what is it you call it—hang out a shingle. I hope to go back with the government, since we see 900 million when left, that place was filled as soon as I determined to study in America."
SPEAKS THREE LANGUAGE
Barba speaks Spanish, Japanese,
English and his own native dialect
and is now determined to learn
French and perhaps German.
His return trip next year, will be
in Europe if nothing interferes with his plans and if possible
he wants to speak the language of
most of the countries he passes
through.
Plain Tales from the Hill
Arthur Vogel, a special law student formerly of Leavenworth, has had much trouble from a wound on the foot caused during the senior class football practice. "Dutch" received only a slight scratch upon the foot but beeped long while poisoning developed. Vogel spent most of last week at his home in Kansas City under the care of a
"Smiley" *Hutton*, a freshman in the College from Larkin, kept the fact that he had a birthday last week a secret from his fellow house rooms. A bright day the next morning a secret of早晚 yesterday and since the students that room at 123B Ohio street celebrate all birthdays, Hutton has a paddling awaiting him. The students say that the celebrating Pigs to Advertise" entitles the freshman to a second birthday celebration.
BETTER THAN BLACK COFFEE
Roy W. Graham, a freshman in the Fine Arts School from Walters, Oklahoma, has struck upon a novel way of burning the midnight-light cuz-weez of with painful victim indings of weary eyelids. Graham's receipt is simple but most effective. As the hours of the night draw on he opens the windows wide, places two iron dumb-bells at each end of the study table, and then wren out a pair of shoes with bed clothing. With fires out and windows wide Graham is ready for a marathon at cramming. The dumb-bells give him arm exercise from hour to hour. The cold air is the best tonic for keeping awake. When the dumb-bells longer resound they make a ludy in the rooms below known that Roy has ceased to cram and has returned to slumberland.
Some Plain Tales at times prove to be only hillside yarns.
Prof. Hopkins, Formerly of Department of Journalism Tells Early History of Paper

HAD GENERAL ELECTION
Editors Once Chosen by Student Body, Then Board Plan
Prof. E. M. Hopkins, who was acting director of the department of journalism from 1903 to .1005, at the time when the Kansan was recognized under the successive management of Wirt. G. McCarty, and Jesse R. Kayser, told about the change in administration of the Kansan.
"As to the early history of the Kansan," began Professor Hopkins, "I cannot make an accurate statement without taking much time to examine the files and records general the files and records student at the University, has passed through three stages. In the first stage it was published by anyone who had a certain amount of backing—financial, political, or otherwise. In the second it was published by a board elected by a general meeting of subscriber holders, a plan modelled such a student in the third it was published by a board chosen by a purely competitive system, under a plan modeled after that followed at leading colleges and substituted for the preceding plan at a similar meeting of subscriber-stockholders.
"Presumably the paper reflected student sentiment, each stage more than the last, since it was general dissatisfaction that led to the change in each stage. Some of the student body was satisfied, but some again it was representative of the University only in theory, until the third stage.
"The present plan has been modified several times, and I am not familiar with the details as at present administrated, but its essential principle of competition for Board promotion within the Board was adopted because preceding plans had given dissatisfaction, and because this plan had provided uniformity among the Boards. Few members of the Boards if any, had had any newspaper training. Under such conditions, the Kansan could not be a newspaper, its subscribers fell away; its advertising likewise declined, prompted the change, and for three years worked successfully for it.
DEPARTMENT HELPED
"The change was made immediately after the founding of the department of journalism, made possible by the aid and support it with. With this aid the change was practically impossible, for so completely had the student body lost interest in the work, that the mention of competition or positions on the Kansan was a joke. The department assumed voice in the matter but merely offered their services and assigned its students to duty on the Kansan, and on the city papers also.
"KANSAN HAS IMPROVED"
"It would be hard to say whether everyone was better satisfied, but at least the subscription list increased and that encouraged the reader to look at the paper became a daily. It was usually better written, better printed, and better balanced than before. It was not subject to political control, unless by such politicians as were willing to study three years to fit themselves also as competent newspaper men. I think of the things very comforting. Even now when I have occasional moments of doubt in regard to the Daily Kansan, I have only to think of its earlier days to be well satisfied with its present work."
The features of the coming quiz campaign are that firing will go on unrestrained after the signal has been given, that there will be few fatalities to many causalities, but the beauty of the whole is that no hospital service will be required. Every man for himself.

In spite of the fact that the Daily Kansan has thrown out several thousand dollars worth of advertising during the past four years, its advertising columns have shown a steady increase, until they carry about $5,000 yearly. Last year
of advertising contracts from Kansas City and Topeka firms were refused because of the policy of the Kansan to work for better feeling between "town and gown."
Contracts from Velvet, Tuxedo and Prince Albert amounting to
$ 720
were refused again this year.
Other unclean and untrustworthy business—fake medicines, get-richquick propositions," $100 week jobs, no experience necessary," copy disgusting in character,--amounting,doubtless, to $100 a year has been thrown out.
We have attempted to merit the confidence of our readers in our advertising columns as well as our news and editorial columns.
We are gratified as we think we have succeeded.

WEBSTER, COLLEGE EDITOR
Daniel Wielded Tripod on the
Dartmouth Gazette in 1800
A history of the development of college journalism will make interesting reading, if somebody ever finishes it himself. But how do we know that there are some facts to prove it?
The first college paper in America was started by Daniel Webster at Dartmouth in 1800. It was called the Carotte
College dailies began to come into existence about twenty years ago.
Two of the best examples of the college daily are the Harvard Crimson and the Yale News. Both of these publications have great influence, and positions on their staffs are among the most coveted honors that Yale and Harvard have to offer. Many men consider the editorship of the Yale News the biggest problem that a Yale man can win in the whole list of undergraduate activities. The Crimson has the reputation of being rather conservative. The Yale News is very expressive in pushing reforms. The Crimson puts out eight pages; the News, six. Both handle some general news.
The Cornell Sun does not confine itself to campus news, but prints much general news, received through the Associated Press.
Another large eastern paper is the Columbia Spectator which puts out eight pages. The Spectator gives much space to the discussion problems, con. of college problems. The editor-ist makes the straightforward, and equally effective.

Among the college dailies of the middle west are the Michigan Daily, the Daily Illini, the Purdue Exponent, the Wisconsin Cardinal, the University Missouri and the University five, aggressive officers, and are all of them exceptionally fearless and outspoken. In the Wisconsin Cardinal its editors are double-column. The Missouri editorials are unique. The campus counterculture general issues of the Fow. College papers attempt this. It handles general news also.
FEATURES ABOUT THE CONTEMPORARIAS
The Yale News - Editors are chosen by keeping count of the space written by each contestant who has 10,000 words. Editors receive salaries, but the share in the profits of the paper.
The Harvard Crimson - Makes about $5,000 a year.
The Cornell Sun--Incorporated under the laws of New York. Controlled by a board of ten. Election to the house on merit, lashed in the morning.
The Wisconsin Cardinal—Staff positions are given on merit which is determined on a competitive basis. The Cardinal helped in the fight for student, self-government, and recently adopted the Association to help tedium courts.
The Columbia Spectator—The editors are selected by the elimination system. They receive no pay. The Spectator last year conducted a fight for a more open policy on the part of the Columbia Athletic Association, and finally induced the Association to call the first mass meeting in its history. The Spectator has also been urging the fraternities to adopt uni-
The Michigan Daily—Students are elected to the staff on the basis of work done. The staff chooses three men who are eligible for the editorship, and one of these three is elected by the board in control of student publications. The editor and manager of the paper each receive about $900 a year. The three flightmen on the editorship and two staffes re-engaged with the budget of $100 each. The Daily has been booster the student union campaigns, and has been largely instrumental in making the idea a success.
The Indiana Student—The editors are appointed by the department of journalism. Three editors are appointed to the editorial cach, and receive $100 salary.
The University Missouriian—Nine students are elected to the staff each year from the School of Journalism, and these in turn name the editor. The paper is entirely under student management.
The Daily Palo Alto (Leland Stanford) - Editors are selected by a general student vote. The editor receives $2.00 an issue.
PAPER SWATS TOBACCO
The Emerald (University of
First College Publication to Do Away With "Pill" Advertisements.
The University Daily Kansan was the first University publication to refuse cigarette advertising. This was done because it was felt that Kansan advertising should be kept as clean as possible, and ahead of the standard set by other papers. While this was a step in advance, in the spring of 1914 the Kansan discontinued the tobacco advertising it was then carrying. "Papers over the state compil-
ing," University daily for the
stand it took.
WOMEN SHOULD MAKE GOOD
AS WRITERS OF ADVERTISING
Women ought to be among the most successful writers of advertisements, in the opinion of Elmer F. Woodman, of the Woodman Advertising Service. He told students of journalism at North Carolina that when he addressed the other day, that women are the ultimate buyers, directing about 90 per cent. of the expenditures made for the home. He declared that members of this department should how to appeal to those buyers. Many women, he said, are already employed by advertising agencies.

Most college papers have a partial censorship of their advertising. The Columbia Spectator is the only collision which publishes liquor advertisements.
Few American students have heard of the leading universities of Canada. Here they are: the McGill, Toronto, Queen's, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Acadia. They rank with many of the strongest schools in our country. Guelph, the agricultural college of the University of Toronto diplomats with Ames in judging contest held yearly at Chicago. The rivalry between these two schools for victory in this competition is as intense as that in football between Missouri and Kansas.
During the fifteen years of the Minnesota Daily's existence the number of women acting upon the staff has increased from three to over twenty. This year the Daily Staff Girls' Club." The club meets twice a month, alternating business and luncheon meetings.
Even though this policy has been maintained, thus cutting off a lucrative income, the Kansan has continued to advance rather than remain stationary or lag behind. The old Kanada was able to afford a fair affair when compared to the twenty-four columns of news and editorials now used each day.
The Kansan has since had numerous requests from advertising agencies, asking if tobacco advertising would be accepted. In variably the request has been "no," although a number of businesses have been in a truffle slim.
The abolition of all intercollegiate sports at Wisconsin may be brought before the next meeting of the faculty, in connection with the discussion of intercollegiate baseball. The same measure was recently voted on by the Minnesota senate and beaten by a large majority.

Vernon Kellogg who recently visited the University in the interests of the Belgian relief fund writes the letter regarding the work here:

"I am glad that you have your hospital work under way. Every single bandage that you send really helps. I have seen hospitals that were critically short of bandages and sponges. This is the time when everybody in the world needs to help."
Professor Kellogg is now at Leland Stanford University and reports that the work there is progressing nicely.
Since Harvard re-opened in September $40,000 in gifts has been received by the university, the largest single donation being $125,000 from James J. Hill, the western railroad man. This sum with an equivalent gift from J. P. Morgan, Howard Elliot and others, will be used to establish a Hill Chair in Transportation at Harvard Business School.
A business course will be offered beginning July 1, 1916 at the University of Columbia. The length of the course will be three years and will lead to an appropriate degree, which is, as yet, undecided.

The Kansan board is limited to twenty-five members by a rule passed last year. Although the editors and managers are elected from the Board, the members of the Board do not constitute the entire staff. The 216 students enrolled in the Department of Journalism gain actual experience by work on the Kansan.
The policies of the paper are determined by the Senior Council with the instructors of the department as advisers. The Senior Council is the board of the members of the Kansan board who are seniors in the University.
The Kansan has a larger number of reporters than any other paper in the state. Not only do they report for the Kansan—they send many stories to the papers over the country. It is a rule of the department to get stories for any paper that reports on events becoming more and more accustomed to sending to the Kansan for help.
The Kansan started out its career January 16, 1912, with an official staff of four, which was increased to sixteen the next fall. There were ninety-two enrolled in the department when the paper was made a daily.
Eight or ten years ago when the Kansas was a weekly, the entire staff was enrolled. In fact, there only ten in the department in 1904.

The acquiring of more wisdom does not necessarily mean the expanding of a man's hat band, nor does the creasing of a nose have any amount of material matter more pages.
In the fall of 1911 Prof. Mercie Thorpe came to the University of Kansas to become the head of department of joint labor at. At this time the university application was issuing a tri-weekly on the press of the Alumni Association in the basement rooms of Fraser Hall. It was not long before Professor Thorpe moved to purchase the print and linotype and the association. These he turned into a type foundry to apply on the purchase payment of new printing material. The price paid for the cation was $20,000, but it cost the department only $9,000. The plant now has a battery of three linotypes and one
Psychologists say that there is a certain size of reading type that is best adapted to the eye. The Daily Kansan passed through various experimental stages in the sizes of type used. When the first issue came the news was set in ink, point type, leaded, i. c., spaced with a lead the thickened points, or one thirty-third of an inch. This size of reading type was a little larger than that used by the majority of newspaper publications.
cations.
Not the Daily changed again from ten point lead to ninite point with a "body" or base of ten points. This change greatly increased the number of words that could be crowded into one column. After a trial with this size the paper again changed its type—this time to eight point type on a nine point column, more commonly down than the printing office as "eight on nine". The editorials, however, are still set by the linetype in "eight on twelve."
With the beginning of the following year the Kansan turned to a daily publication, printing each school day. At first the Kansan delivered its readers only in newspapers. Today the ratio is reversed. Two-thirds of the paper is given over to news. This was done by a reduction in the size of type used.
"eight" who does the editor give his readers more news in the same space without greatly increasing his productive wage. The psychologist has pronounced the "eight on nine" as a most pleasing type for the average eye.

According to Ayer's official newspaper directory, the Kansan's rate of $3.00 for a year's subscription is not higher than the average over the country. The Daily California receives $7.75 per month in school months. The other range in prices follows: Stanford Palo Alto—$3.00, Yale Daily News—$4.00, Purdue Exponent—$3.00, Indiana Student—$2.50, Chicago Maroon—$3.00, Harvard Crimson—$3., Princetonian—$4.50, Nebraskan—$2.00, Michigan Daily—$3.00, Cornerstone—$3.50, Colorado Spectator—$3.50, Grand藐—$5.00, Washington Cardinal—$3.00, Pennsylvania—$3.50, Daily Illini—$2.00, Minnesota Daily—$2.50, Drake Delphic—$3.00 The Kansan is larger than most

Kansan Stories Are Sent to Six Hundred State Editors by News Service
Relics of Indian Village Placed on Third Floor of Museum
The Kansan helps advertise the University in more ways than one. Besides appearing five times a week on the exchange desk of more than six hundred Kansas editors, and being sent to five hundred high schoolariaries, much of the news is in the stories as material for publicity stories out regularly from the office of Prof. Merle Thorpe, who is director of that work. This material is given free of charge to the editors of the daily papers four times a week, newspapers within its sent out to the weekly papers four times a month.
From suggestions received through the columns of the Kansan, students in the department work up special stories of general interest over the state and make further investigation of questions of wide importance, these stories going out as a valuable part of the University's advertising.
COLLECTION IS MOUNTED
The Hovey collection of Indian reli- les, which was donated to the University in 1914, at last is being mounted, labeled and put into large glass cases on the third floor of the Mu seum. The collection contains over a million examples, including every kind of weapon, tool, and house- bold utensil used by the Indians.
It is interesting that the collection was all found in one place in Kansas, near Whitechurch. "There must have been a large Indian village there," said Paleontology, "because it is unusual to find so many specimens in one place. Very likely too, it was a trading village, where the Indians from the north came down the Missouri river and settled on its tribes. Many of the stones used in the weapons are not indigenous to that country."
Favorable action on the request of the Montana state board of education that instruction in military science be allowed, and that instruction of Montana will undoubtedly be taken by the University States war department, according to word received from the U.S. Secretary of Defense Fred Schiebe, acting president of the University of Montana.
Students Will Probably Drill
The dean of men at the University of Illinois reports that more than 35 per cent of those registered earned a part or all of their expenses, while among the college year and excluding the summer months approximated $200,000.
You know the man with that snow-white hair, the man who dispenses the towels over in the Gym, the one who gives out a spotless, although sometimes non-holeproof, towel in return for a punch at your towl ticket. From morning until night, it is. He read to befriend the freshman, the sophomore, the junior, or the senior men, the professor.
In 1905 there was no Robinson Gymnasium—and in 1905 there was no "Dad" Root around K. U. "Dad" came when the gymnasium was built and has stayed with it ever since, from 1906 to 1915.
"Dad" came here just after the Robinson Gymnastium was finished and did his share in putting up the lockers and other fixtures of the building. Now he sits in that little room that looks so much like a cage and gives out towels, checks out basketball, footballs, soccer equipment, punching bags and other muscle-producers.
"Dad" Root needed no better inducement to come to K. U. than the fact that his son was to be a gymnasium instructor. Come to K. U., but "Dad" is still here—and probably will be for some time.
"Dad" seems to be as permanent at the University of Kansas as the building in which he is to be seen daily. From morning until night he has a smile and a cherry word for everyone.

TRACK MEET MARCH 17
Late Date Gives Reber More Time to Whip Squad Into Condition
A definite date, March 17, has been set for the Missouri-Kansas track meet in Convention Hall at Kansas City. This date is later than usual but the change was made necessary because of the other attractions which were booked for the big-hall the two weeks previous.
This change will allow Reber's men more time in which to get in shape for the Tigers. He will visit February 21, and the K. C. A. C. Invitation meet will come the following Saturday night, February 26. This allows three weeks for Hamilton to work with men before facing Schulte's squad.
The invitation meet which Dr. Reilly staged for the athletes of the Missouri Valley and the big athletic arena of good training and experience for the Jayhawkers. It gives them a chance to run on the Convention Hall or the main campus, also allows Hamilton to find out the quality of his men in all events.
The changing of this date brings a complication of athletic events on the Kansas schedule for that weekend. The annual interscholastic basketball tournament is scheduled for March 17 and 18. This will be a double tournament.
Those dopesters who dabble in old dope remember that this will be the second time in the history of the Tiger track meet that it has been held on the same night as the 2015 edition. This is a meager clue or possibly a poor bit of dope for in 1913 Captain Patterson's men downed the Tigers
for the first time in the history of the indoor games. Considering the dope and the prospects it may not be heading to figure on a victory this year.
Witter Bynner, who has been visiting his friend Willard Watties, of the department of English during the last week, left yesterday afternoon for Kansas City, where he will give a reading this evening.

MINING MEN TO K. U. AS USUAL AT SPOONER
First Flotation Conference is to be Held in Lawrence January 28 and 29
WINS U. S. RECOGNITION
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 21, 1916.
Meeting Scheduled at University Because of Work in Research
The first conference of professors of mining and metallurgy in American colleges and universities on the subject of flotation is to be held at the University of Kansas January 28 and 29. This meeting will draw scientists and mining experts from all parts of the United States.
The field of flotation is a new one and because of the pioneer work done by the division of state chemistiation, the United States Bureau of Mines has officially recognized the contribution of the University of Massachusetts, Boston, to flotation. KU was chosen as the meeting place of the first conference.
REDUCES WASTE 30 PER CENT
The Division of State Chemical Research, under the supervision of Prof. W. A. Whitaker, started an investigation of mining in Kansas a year earlier and applied the process of flotation to certain mining districts in Kansas. At present, the slimes which are thrown away contain more than 6 per cent sine. The work carried on in these areas led to the attention of the United States Bureau of Mines and official recognition was given to the efforts of the Kansas division of research. With a view to securing an exchange of ideas on flotation by Lydia Calhoun of the U. S. Bureau, in charge of the Salt Lake City station, called this first conference which will meet in Lawrence next week. Because of the central location and the pioneer work worked on in this state, Lake Utah was chosen as the meeting place.
REDUCEES WASTE 10 PER CENT
Until the discovery of flotation,
about 30 per cent of the minerals
taken from mines were found.

the newer method reducing that
waste to about 7 per cent.

Stacks Will Close at Regular Time During Quiz Week
NO. EXAM CONCESSIONS
Librarian Doubts if Books Would be Called for at Night
According to Miss Carrie Watson, K. U. librarian, chances of the stacks being open at night during quiz week are extremely slim. Miss Watson says that there is money appropriated, if he be for the quiz book, his book stacks, they shall be opened. Otherwise, no money, no books.
"Do you think that the stacks ought to be open for the students during the coming week?" was asked, of Miss Watson.
"I think that they ought to be open," replied the librarian, "but you can't have what you don't pay for. If you will see the best books and get deals with what to pay for help your request will be granted."
pronoun
"Who are the proper authorities?"
was asked.
Miss Watson replied "the Chancellor might be interviewed, I have talked about it several times but nothing has come of it."
In reply to the question as to the demand of the students for the opening of the stacks at night and as to whether they would be used if opened Miss Watson said, "There has been a lot of discussion about it. I do very much whether they would be used if opened, but again I see no chances of their being opened unless you get the proper authorities to furnish the money for the running of the stacks in the nest for the use of the students at night during quiz week."
To all questions as to the probability of the success in having the stacks opened at all Miss Watson could only say "No."

Louise Bryant, six year old, daughter of Lee Bryant, owner of the College Ann is grieving over the loss of her bull-dog Buster. Buster, her playmate and pet, has appeared a few days before Christmas.
"The disappearance of Buster has hurt her more than anything that ever happened to her," said Lee. "Every night, before going to bed, she snaps out and closes the door tomorrow," then we have to say no, and she cries herself to sleep."
For the last four years Buster was a well known character around the College Inn. It was thought for a time that he was running around town and would eventually come home. Inquiries were made without results. It is thought that the dog has been taken out of town.
"I don't know who took the dog," said Lee, "but I know that no questions will be asked of any one who returns him."

STAGE GIPSY OPERETTA ARMENIAN FUND GROWS
Romance of Spain to be Given by Women in School of Fine Arts in March
That K. U. does not merely have within its dramatic walls rising Mantells and enthustiasite Blanche Rings will be proved by the women of the tacoma society since the operetta "Spanish Gypsies" this coming March. Since the formation of the University Dramatic Club the fold of musical comedies and light operettas has been neglected. None of this type was given with any vavr.
The scene of the play is laid in Spain among the roving gypsy tribes and tells a love story of these interesting people, Light, please yet practical; this is the critique of the music by reviewers. A chance is given for individual work, for there are many solo numbers.
The music and lyrics of "Spanish Gypsy" are by Vincent, a leading American composer. It consists of three acts and provides for a chorus of two parts which makes it particularly suitable for a college production. The musicians and the chorus are the divisions of the chorus. Besides the chorus of thirty-two, eight main characters are required.
One of the features of the operetta is the dancing. This is typically Spanish and will require much practice. Dr. Alice Goetz, has taken charge of this and will instruct the women in the steps.
Thetag Will Celebrate
Rehearsals have been started already and will be held several times a week. The date of production has not been announced it will be in the flood-rock theater.
Thetas Will Celebrate
The members of the Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority will entertain their alumnae and their alumni. Founder Day celebration with a dinner and other special entertainments at the house. A large number of local and out of town alumni are expected to be present.
Attention is called to the fact that the essentials of New Testament Greek (12) has been changed from a three to a five hour course. No previous knowledge of Greek is required.

BILLY SUNDAY TO COME?
A SENIOR LAMENT
Plan to Have Revivalist Address University in April
Billy Sunday may talk to the students of the University, but F. R. Hamilton of the Extension Division might forget it at least for the present."
It is thought that an attempt will be made by the University, to get Sunday here sometime during the campaign which is to be held in April but the faculty committee in charge announces no plans at present.
"The matter was taken up at a board meeting of the Y. M. C. A., some weeks ago," said Prof. U. G. Mitchell, "and I think it was decided that an effort should be made to bring Mr. Sunday here."
Hugo Wedell, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., says that it is probable Mr. Sunday will be here for at least one address, but that at present it is too early to announce anything definite.
HOODS AND QUOTES
The members of the faculty of the department of mathematics were entered at the home of Prof. C. H. Ashton last month with an informational stunt party, each person present putting on some impromptu act. Mrs. Ashton and Mrs. E. B.

FRIED ONIONS AND ART
Gross Materialism Invades Classical Halls of Old Fraser, Where Greeks Hold Forth
DIONYSOS WANTS BREAD
Plaster Baby Joins Ranks of Utilitarians
Once Upon a Time A Certain Rich Man went to the Junior Prom dressed in a Bathing Suit. He was trying to get notorious by Contrast. But he failed. Everyone mistook him for a woman in a new party dress and he was asked if he had been night over. Now this has nothing to do with the story. This is a tale of Contrast Classique.
In the classical halls of Fraser, where the Chancellor sits in his stately cubby-hole, and high-browed students quote Virgil, Plato, Shakespeare, De Maupassant, and Iirarte, base materialism with its pungent feelers into every nook and corner of the grand old palace.
In the museum, where statued bronze and plaster unfold the beauties of art to some poor fool who has lost his way, the beautiful infant Dionysses begs Hermes unceasingly for that bunch of grapes. But the precious dear is only kidding. It, he, or she does not really want the stone grapes, but the coffee, whose delicate aroma crumbles within the frescoed walls with a permeating odor of suggestion.
Hermes, the poor stone head, knows what the kid wants and whispers across to the Venus of Milo whilst he sniffs the baking dough with the Apollo Rivedere keeps his proud man out the windward as the enrapturing perfume of baking beans is waffled in on the morning breeze.
Where do these sublimely agonizing smells come from, old Demosthenes grunts to Sophacles. Sophacles passes it on to Marcus Aurelius, but Mark (see materialism has him) finds the perfect antidote, and has not time to answer. Finally Old Fiddling Nero tries to ask the janitor, but the wireless is out of order, so the domestic science department in the basement continues to send four toilet smells into the house, like a white with rage, and make students, who are not all stone, grind their teeth in hopeless hunger.
VINDOW TRIMMING ADDED
TO MERCHANTS' COURSE
Two new speakers have been secured to conduct classes in Window Trimming for the Merchant's Short Course. In addition to Mr. A. E Butterworth, head window trimmer at Company of Kansas City, already announced, Mr. Wm. Cubberly of Salina will discuss the topic, "Window Trimming for Grocers," on Monday, February 7. On Thursday and Friday of the semester, window trimmer at Ober's Clothing Store, Lawrence will speak on "Window Trimming as applied to Men's Furnishings."
The classes in window trimming were added at the last minute and after the programs had been issued, because of a special request from persons who attended the Short Course last year.
SANTA FE TRAINS
CHANGE NAMES
Trains numbers one and ten on the Santa Fe will henceforth bear the name of "Scout", according to information received at the local Santa Fe office. The name was formerly "Overland". The official name of the trains nine and twelve has also been changed from the train that changed to "Navajo". These names are not used by the officials in sending in their orders, but are merely for the convenience of the patrons.
E. H. Lees '94 Dies
E. H. Lees, LLB '94, died last week at his home in Sterling, Kansas, from blood poisoning. Mr. Lees entered the Law School in 1892 and received his degree in '94. He did his preparatory work in Cooper College. He was a leader in the United Presbyterian church. In addition to his legal practice, he had large business interests and awarded several awards. Excepting four years spent in Lyons, Kansas, when he was county clerk of Rice county, Mr. Lees has lived in Sterling since his graduation.
F. M. Veatch, field man for the water analysis department came in yesterday to do some office work connected with the sewage investigation and carrying out for the State Industrial Research Department at Winfield.

Some make Conscience of wearing

manic. ___
WE ARENT THE ONLY ONES Is there an epidemic of stealing passing over state universities just as there has been an epidemic of gripe?
It would almost seem so, judging from editors' appearing in the Indiana Student and the Cincinnati News.
Last week the Kansan requested that action should be taken by the Student Councils or University authorities against stealing that has become so prevalent of late. This week similar requests have been put forth by the publications of the University of Cincinnati and the University of Indiana.
Immediate action taken by some power in authority to inflict punishment upon the offenders seems the only remedy for this habit or practice of stealing. It is the remedy suggested by all the publications.
STEP RIGHT UP!
Are we going to have something done?
This is the time when the lazy man wants to make garden. Next summer he'll want to shovel snow.
Mr. Hadley was born in Olathe and was graduated from the University of Kansas in 1892.
Mr. Herbert S. Hadley's illness makes it probable now that there will be only one K. U. man mentioned among the "possibilities" for president. The papers state that he and Mrs. Hadley have gone to Mexico in search of a climate to benefit his health.
But surely K. U. should have more representatives than these. Will someone else come forward?
The other possibility still in the field is Senator William E. Borah of Idaho. Mr. Borah attended K. U. in the early 80's and later practiced law in Lyons, Kansas for a short time. His home is now in Boise, Idaho.

"Do you know of any reason why you should not eat duck's eggs?"
"No, I just don't do it, that's all."
“No, I just don't do it, that is an.
“You'll man, tell you why you eat hen's eggs, and not duck's eggs. When a duck lays an egg, she is a darn fool and keeps quiet about it, but when a hen lays an egg—she advertises. It pays.”
Thus does Mr. Ambrose Peale, advertising manager of the infant 13 Coap Co., demonstrate the value of advertising, in the play "It Pays to Advertise." And Mr. Peale is right.
But the author of this delightful comedy has overlooked an important fact. The hen has a staple product of standard worth to advertise. That is why her advertising pays.
On the other hand, the 13 Soap Co. never made a bar of soap during its existence, and filled its only order with plain pink Castile wrapped in old rose paper, purchased at three cents a bar, and sold for sixty cents.
By seeming to sanction the business and publicity methods of this unserpulous firm, the playwright gives the idea that advertising, good advertising, is primarily a means of fooling the public. It is not. That kind of publicity went out of date along with the wild-cat insurance company. Good advertising does not lie. It does not even deal in circumlocution and double meanings. When advertising tells the truth, and does not try to fool the consumer, then, and then only, does it "pay to advertise."
SUCH IS FAME!
When Witter Byner came out to Kansas to visit a friend he had no intention of parading himself, nor of being lionized, and the tast thought in his mind was to make speeches. He thought he would be allowed a nice little visit with his friend, would slip about and see the place, and then move on unobserved, but Mr. Byner found himself making speeches and talking to circles and classes and groups, until, according to his own statement, he felt like a cautaunqua lecturer.
Because he is a well known man, and a poet of merit, he had to show himself to the hungry mob, and feast their ears with his words of wisdom. Let it be said for Mr. Bynner that he adapted himself to the roles he was forced into, with an case that was surprising. That诗 that can be all things to all men, is indeed a wonder When Mr. Bynner comes to make another "quiet little visit," he will find a warm welcome.
Let it be hoped that it may be soon
HERE'S HOPING
The newly organized honor society, "The Knights of the Golden K," has apparently started its existence under most auspicious circumstances. It has ideales, its twenty-five members include some of the most capable men in the University, and nobody can deny that there is a field in which the organization can be of vast benefit.
The thing that such an organization needs is sustained enthusiasm and cooperation. There is not a dearth of capable men at the University and many of them have advanced excellent solutions for some of our most glaring defects.
The thing that is most needed is for the organization to attack these problems year in and year out and keep after them until they are solved. We believe and hope that the Knights will live and will continue to work with the same enthusiasm that has come into being with them.
"Students Pay $5,000 for Traveling Home," says the University Missouri. That's about what it cost the Kansas rooters Thanksgiving, after suits were pressed, new hats purchased, etc., etc.
THE "MOVIE" AN EDUCATION Every announcement of the introduction of moving pictures into the schools, supplementing and sometimes supplanting textbooks, classroom lectures and laboratory hours, is welcome by students and faculty as an indication of something that may in time lighten the labors of both. Almost every day the newspapers tell of some school that has introduced the "movies" to be used for practical advantages.
"At such a time as 'movies' at school will have become general marvelous things are destined to come about. English majors will be longer read for hours on long novels or so he says, but the mortal dramas of "rare Ben Johnson" regretting that languages suffers change as the centuries roll. On the contrary, he will sit p'asurefully while it is run off for him in an hour on the desk, for students in engineering, lawyers, journalists, the whole world will be an accessible laboratory and workshop."
This indicates that pictures are not merely an easy method of teaching but because easy, that they are to become a valuable method of general education.

"HELLO. FELLOWS!"
Student action is desirable if that action is effective. The Executive Board of the Council should make every effort to discover the robbers who are turning into profit for themselves the trust which the majority of the students have in each other. If student action does not bring immediate results, we propose aid should be sought from the city to prevent it. This is no case of mischievous childhood, and it is highly probable that the sternest possible measures will have to be taken in order to deal with it in a positive manner.-Cincinnati University News.
A CASE FOR DECISIVE ACTION
Since the beginning of the present term there has been an alarming epidemic of stealing in the University. Students have been losing books, coats, umbrellas and even pocket-books and jewelry with such regularity that the explanation of accident is out of the question. Undoubtedly there are a few, or perhaps, several, men and women who are maniacally taking onto themselves the property of their students. This state of affairs must be remedied for the protection of the property and the honor of our community.
LET'S DO SOMETHING NOW.
Can't somebody do something to stop petty thievery around the University? Not a day passes when we hear the word "one of some one becoming a boss" loss of some cherished passion. Since the beginning of the present semester, some person or persons unknown have gone south with enough articles to stock a very good second-hand store. Each day adds its aggregate to the toll of goods and chattels that have disappeared into that vast Unknown whence it finds its seems, ere it finds itself. This state of affairs is alarming at first, but when personal property vanishes with such distressing regularity it becomes monotonous.
The well known axiom that a pleasant word doesn't cost anything seems to be doubted by many people on the campus. It seems to be the groups of fellows, meeting on the street or campus, to exchange a cheerful "howdy-do." Any decadence of so happy a custom would be a reflection of the true character at University.
In general, a man's standing among his fellows is based largely on the way he treats them. The man who lives "unto himself alone" is very likely to find, at the end of his college career, that his education, which ought to be multitude of officers, is largely consoled by his hdug out of his books. Surinness and unnatural reserve are not often mistaken for dignity. A stern visage and a pre-occupied frown become a professor much more than an undergraduate.
To greet, in passing, a group of fellow students with a pleasant "Hello men!" greeting. Once the professor makes one feel, as George Ade might say, like thirty cents. Common courtesy, if nothing else, it seems, would require that such a greeting be returned. David Harum, we think it was, said that "everybody is just as good as everybody else and sometimes a dern sight better." When on street campus it is on a common regardless of race, color or previous condition of servitude; and no man need feel ashamed to speak to his fellows or answer their greetings in return.-Indiana Daily Student.
If we have a Fagin in our midst, it is up to us to ferrit him out and convince him of the error of his way. Surely the cunning of an ordinary sneak thief is not so great that it is beyond the power of the University to find and punish him. A few days of complete rest at the "Jones Club," South Walnut Street, might be lent medicine. As the students of this University, we have the right to assurance that when we hang up our overcocks and hats in places properly designated therefor, we have at least an even chance that apparel will be there to greet us on our return.
We have written communications and editorials and made complaints without number. Now we are like the front-row gentlemen at the musical comedy—we want action. If there are any means of turning a sneak thief from the part by transgressor to the straight and narrow side of the respectable citizen find it. If it would do any good, we might even call to our assistance the sommelier and osteocephalic genders of the city. At any rate, let's do something!-Indiana Student.

WAITERS MAKE PROTEST
Students at University of Chicago Make Demands
Student waiters in the Commons at the University of Chicago are protesting against wearing a badge and against having to "punch the time clock" on the ground that it lowers the temperature of other students. The Daily Maroon is against the abolition of the two practices and is having a skirmish with the waiters' grievance committee. Following is a petition of the waiters:
THE WAIT 'To the Editor:
"The Daily Maroon through its news and editorial columns has endeavored to enlighten the public on the situation at the Commons. But it has thus far succeeded only in making considerable noise about it. The chairman of the commons said he wishes to submit a thimbleful of light on the subject."
"All the impoite (modesty is a great virtue) assertions made by The Daily Maroon about the waiters' snobbishness and blushing at honest labor will be taken with a grain of salt when they accuse it, but will be well to add that the waiters never have threatened to strike. The facts in the case from which the reader may draw his own conclusion are embodied in the following petition presented to the management of the Commons about three weeks ago. The waiters are still on account of lack of space. It merely sets forts the good will of the waiters toward the management.
NOT PROFESSIONAL SERVANTS
"Chairman of Grievance Committee.
"The committee begs leave to sub-
mit."
"It desires, first of all, to call the attention of the management to the social position of the waiters in the University. In the University life, scholastically and socially, the waiters deem themselves on a par with the other students of the University, and seriously advise which of them to cause themselves to feel and others to consider them as professional servants, and hence below that plane. But altogether they fully realize and acknowledge that while performing the duties of a waiter they must render obedience to authority and give respectful attention to them, and in accomplish this without doing those things which distinguishes them as professional servants.
DON'T LIKE INSIGNIA
"Those things which they believe distinguishe them as professional servants are, the button, which they are now required to wear, and the
"punching of the time clock." They believe that they are justified in objecting to doing these things because, they believe that they do not serve any useful purpose.
It is obvious the button does not, because the number cannot be distinguished as well as the number written in pencil on the jacket. The only purpose that it serves is to give you the insignia of professionals. Neither can they see how it conduces to the efficiency of the service to punch the time clock, which is another thing which they feel and believe to distinguish them as officers. The system it is necessary to rely upon the reports of the head waiter.
ASK FOR MEALS
"They beg leave also to call the attention of the management to its ruling which requires them to handle the delivery of goods when removing it from the tray to the receiving box. This is not only unpleasant and unsanitary, as they be lieve, but it seems to them to be abusive and inappropriate for the improvement of the service.
"Although they do not believe that the management doubts the honor and integrity of the waiters, yet they cannot help but feel that by this requirement it has unconsciously cast a reflection.
"The committee has thus briefly and concisely stated the objections to the above mentioned rulings of the management and pray that it will consider them favorably. It wishes also to present another matter for the consideration of the management, and upon which the waiters are unanimous in agreement, we greatly appreciated if the management could see fit to allow the waiters 15-cent breakfasts, 20-cent lunches, and 25-cent dinners.
"In submitting these sentiments of the waiting force on the propositions above mentioned the committee wishes to be understood as presenting them in a spirit of helpfulness and co-operation."

All articles must be removed from the women's lockers. The lockers are to be thoroughly washed before use. Each lock and every locker must be empty by the end of the week. All material left in the lockers will be destroyed. If a locker it will be difficult for the owner to recover her property.
In answer to an editorial which appeared in the Daily Kansan several days ago concerning the place of the classic language in American government, a department of Greek has sent in the following article, the source of the article is not given:
GREEK THE MARK
of American doctors meeting together or holding animated conversations in Greek may be hard for the 'man in the street' to believe possible, but it is claimed by a recent writer that such intercourse is practically necessary. Furthermore the assertion is made that Greek is not the only language of the world, a fraternity of Americans that it nurtures being actually the universal medical language throughout the world.
"Perhaps this is a somewhat exaggerated way of putting the fact that by far the largest majority of the technical words used by the physician are of Greek origin, and that without these terms the doctor would be stricken dumb, so far as the living language of his science is concerned.
The University Book Store will pay cash for second hand text books. Adv.
HERE ARE GREEK DERIVATIONS
"Some of the Greek derivations are jawbreakers to the Greckess; ophilochia, enteroptosis, leucemia, ophilothiphlegia, phlebitis, septicemia, myelomatosis. Naturally the technical terms of any science are 'all Greek' to the layman. But such words are the flesh and blood of scientific knowledge, quite indispensable to the physician.
"Many of these Greek words, however, are part and parcel of the language of our daily life. Modern scientific progress and the spread of learning have fostered new words like antiseptice, clinic, bacteria, typhoid, gastric, diagnosis, hygiene, embryo, and therapeutics. The very names of the departments in any medical setting include, for instance, such divisions as anatomy, bacteriology, chemistry, dermatology, embryology, gynecology, histology, ophthalmology, pathology, pharmacology, physiology, surgery, therapeutics, and toxicology."
Men You Know—and Don't
The man on the faculty of the University of Kansas who has received the most publicity in reputable newspapers and magazines, has been a longtime reception abroad and who will, within the next two years hold the highest respect of the people of Kansas, is Arthur Nevin, professor of choral music and music extension in the school of Fine Arts at the University.
His opera, "Poïa" was the first written by an American to be given in the Royal Opera House in Berlin, the Crown Prince and escorts attending the second night and giving the product high praise. Born in Hamburg, France, Naive founded unusual activities of any lady until, at eighteen years of age, he took up the study of music, going to the New England Conservatory at Boston for four years. He then crossed the Atlantic and spent seven years in Berlin and other German cities studying under musicians of fame, the most important of whom were the composer "Henna and Gretel" which was first played at the Metropolitan in New York in 1911.
**Poos Investigates Shrubs**
F. W. Poos left yesterday for Ottawa to investigate for the federal government of shrimp and foreign bulls and bulls received from Holland by Willis and Co., of Ottawa. Mr. Poos is at present attached to the staff of the state entomologist, S. J. Hunter, of the University.
LIVED WITH BLACKFOOT INDians
Returning from the Fatherland he went to Montana and lived two years among the Indians, learning the music, painting with them in their dances, trying to get the secrets of their religion and at night, stealing off to his rude quarters to make memoranda of what he had heard and seen. This was the Indian opera, "Poia," which was given before the home folks at Pittsburgh and then taken to Berlin. The play aroused deep and lasting jealousy among German critics and received columns of public opinion against its antithetical American musical journals sent special correspondents to the German city to review the opera and thousands of words were given in praise of the American production. Given four times in the Royal Opera House in Berlin—the winter of 1910.
NAME SOCIETY AFTER NEVIN Professor Nevin came to the University of Kansas this summer. He is an extreme work with Harold L. Butter, dean of the School of Fine Arts at the University. Both men are alive to the needs of the people and Mr. Nevin's community music plan is meeting with approval in the state. Five years ago he met the one in Colony doing Mr. Nevin the honor of naming the organization "The Nevin Chorus."

AGGIES TAKE OPENER
Pile up Big Score in Ragged Bas
ketball Game With Jay-
hawkers
TANGLE AGAIN TONIGHT
Kansas Will Have an Opportunity to Atone for Victory
The Aggies seemed to have the proper "hunch" when they arrived in Lawrence yesterday for they took the first game of the series from Hamilton's five by the largest score they have hilled up to 18 and then to 18 to 18. And they have a mighty good chance of winning the game tonight by an even larger score unless the Jayhawkers play better ball than they have shown yet this year on the home court. Or the Aggie will defiededly off to a crisp crimson and blue men will have a good chance to get the long end of the score.
Possibly it was the weather that affected the players. There are numerous possibilities, but the real remains that the Aggies took the long end of the score while Kansas looked on. Both teams played ragged ball all through the game, but the advantage was with Merrer's more limited shots were tried by both sides and the majority of them did not even hit the backstop. However, a few lucky shots slipped through the iron ring.
AGGIES GUARDED WELL
Close guarding by the Aggie guards caused the Kansas fans forward to take the long shots. Ramsey, right guard for the visitors played a very strong game against him in a single field goal, although he made six free throws. Reynolds starred for the visitors. His six field goals and four free throws enlarged the Aggie scorn, making it as one of the features of the game.
Couch Merner used the same line-up through the entire game, while Hamilton ran in a couple of substitutes in the middle of the second half. Neither combination could break up the Aggle teamwork and start a rally for the Jayhawk. Pattinson made a couple of long shots in rapid succession near the close of the game, but this teammate did not follow the example of the final rally, which brought the rooters to their feet, failed to catch up with Captain Adam's squad and a couple of goals by Reynolds ended the game.
The line-up for tonight will be the game as that which started the game last night unless Hamilton makes some change at the last moment. It is possible that Kowder may start with Gibbens in place of Kennedy, Pattinson also may start the game. The game tonight could be the last one Washington will be the next opponent for Hamilton's men after the two weeks rest—rather two weeks of hard practice.

GIVE KEY TO HEALTH
K. U. Experts in Hygienic Tell How to Make Minutes Count for Most
EACH PLAN DIFFERENT
Dr. Goetz, Dr. Naismith, and Prof. Rees Can't Agree
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 25, 1916
Early to bed,
Early to rise.
Makes a Man healthy, wealthy and
That was Pooil Richard's panances, but the royal road to success twists more perplexity. He spent three bad days, at the office, experts in and personal efficiency of for more complicated roles following interviews believing that students are interested in making effort count for as much as possible.
Just what an ideal day's program for a student should be is a subject on which the medical authorities at K. U., disagree, Dr. Alice Goets, Dr. James Naismith, and Prof. M. H.R. Hees, of the department of physiology, each have a different plan.
You can read them over, take your choice, and try one next semester.
Dr. Alice Goetz says: "Give up at 7 o'clock and take a sponge bath. This is essential if you wish a good, clear, healthy complexion. Eat breakfast at 7:45 o'clock. This meal should be something solid, either fruit and some toast, or an egg. Drink a cup of coffee if you like it. Stay on the Hill all morning and walk home and eat a hot lunch. Cold lunches are not good for health, but corn, it helped out in studying. If it could be arranged, the heaviest meal of the day should be at noon. Dinner at night makes one dummy.
"Sometimes during the afternoon, there should be an hour or so for outdoor exercise. Force recreation is not good, but the exercise this hour should be diverting and some kind of a game is preferable. An ideal we would be for chapel then, because it is opening and close at 5 o'clock. Have chapel exercises after five. It seems to be a fitting close for the day to have chapel then, because the student is in a spirit for relaxation and he is ready for a rest of this kind. The attendance might be greater at 5 o'clock too, because students would drop in after classes over, or in between. In the other, they are sleepy and don't feel like going and so they do not make any efforts to get there."
N'T ORIJECT TO LATE HOURS
DOEN'T ORGET TO LATE HOURS
Dr. Eileen A. Foster,
an early supper is best, especially if
it is going to be the heaviest meal.
After this meal study and then to go bed
"But, said Dr. Goetz, "I don't believe in people making such a fuss about students keeping late hours. People have always kept late hours and I haven't heard of any deaths resulting from it. If the student fails to get the required number of hours sleep one night, more than my same student will be up by sleeping on Saturday or Sunday. A perfect day is one without excitement or chatter without purpose."
Dr. James Naismith makes his schedule for an ideal day: "Arise at 7 o'clock to make an eight-thirty class, but at least two days out of the week get up earlier and attend chapel. The student can stay in the classroom if the attends chapel in the morning. Eat breakfast. There is no argument for going without this meal. Tea or coffee are not necessary as a stimulant so early in the morning. Cold baths in the morning are not good for every one. No study should be done in the individual. No studying should be done in the morning. Although the student's mind is fresh, he needs all of this for the work of the day. The first hour subject should be one to induce heat thinking, such as reading a language, and then the following hours should be spent in a laboratory.
"One is tired by this time and the work in a laboratory enables the student to move around more, and less concentration is necessary. This covers the class work for the day if the student is taking 15 hours work. The noon meal should be light and one half hour of active conversation around the table just for a general good time. By 2 o'clock the student should be down to good hard studying until 4:30 o'clock. Four-thirty until 6 o'clock should be designated as universal recreation hour. This recreation should be absolute physical and mental exercise. Outdoor sports should come in here. All classes should close at 4:30 in order to have this recreative hour universal.
Besides sports, it includes taking a bath and dressing for dinner. The heavy meal should be at night. For an hour afterwards, the students should have a free, jolly time. There is nothing better than social recreation at this time. There should be music, but no dancing because it is a
RECREATION AT NIGHT
severe physical activity for this time of day."
Dr. Naismith says the students are losing out in their ability to sit down and converse. "They do not do it often enough. From 8 o'clock on, studying may be finished or correspondence may be missed." Go to bed at 10:30 or 11:30 o'clock.
Prof. M. H. Rees of the department of physiology although not agreeing in every way with the ones mentioned above, shows some good inducements to follow his theory. He tells the students to rise at 6 o'clock and study before breakfast. Eat a substantial breakfast. Have dinner at 3:50 o'clock the afternoon should end at 3:50 o'clock. Have dinner at night and go to bed at 10 o'clock.
YOST VISITS AT K. U
Michigan's Famous Football Coach Sees "The Old Town" Once More
Those old timers who were lucky enough to be around Lawrence in the good old days of 1899 and the first ever-victorian K. U. football team if that year, got a real treat yester-year. He played for the Tigers. Tow blew into town for a flying visit with his old friend, Hugh Blair, a town real estate man.
While refusing to be really interviewed you know, Hurry Up admitted that he has gained considerable success at the University of Michigan in the fifteen years since 1900. You've done it, but you haven't left the greatest team in its history.
As to why he was in Lawrence, well it was just to visit. Mr. Blair and to see the old town again. And then there were those southern Kansas and Oklahoma oil fields, which are said to be well worth looking at. Mr. Blair's Yost expected to see for himself after leaving Lawrence last night.
Yost was one Nebraska coach that Kansas succeeded in getting away from the Cornhuskers and the result of the 990 team justified the experiment.
LOOK FOR 600 MERCHANTS
Eighteen New Towns Enrolled For Short Course
Fifty Kansas towns, representing a prospective attendance of 600 or more, have enrolled their business men in the Merchants' Short Course, which will be held at the University next month.

Eighteen new towns which have never been represented at the course of the Cordia Convention cordia, Conway Springs, Culver Darlow, Dresden, Hiatville, Hiathawa Holton, Horton, Hunnewell, Liberal St. John, Wakefield, St. John, Vesper, and Wakeeney.
STUDENTS KEEP UP GAME
AFTER THEIR GRADUATION
Graduates of the University are playing an important part in national and state politics. William E. Borah United States Senator from Idaho and Herbert S. Hadley, ex-governor of Missouri, are talked of as possible presidential candidates in both eastern and western newspapers.
The alumni of K. U. have not limited their activity in state politics to the University, but also in the tannah once rooted for the crimson and blue. Ex-governor Stubbs, R. F. Hohns, a lieutenant governor, both labors are filled by the K. U. men.
Other graduates who have mixed in politics are: William Allen White, the committee member for Kansas in the election of Chas. F. Scott of Iola and Geo. A. Necly of Hutchinson both of whom have held seats in Congress, and Guv Besson of Chas. F. Scott of Iola and fourth and fifth district representatives to Congress. Both were students here. E. C. Little of Kansas City, Kansas, and C. W. Miller of Kansas City are candidates for the nomination from their respective districts.
Asks President to Speak
The University Daily Kansas wired President Wison this afternoon asking that he speak to the students of the University and to the faculty of Lawrence on his visit from Topesa to Kansas City on February 2.
MARY ANTIN TO SPEAK DOING SOLDIER DUTY
Famous Writer, Once Poor Immigrant, Comes to K. U. February 29.
University of Kansas students will be given a treat February 29, when Mary Antin will lecture at a special conventation. Mary Antin is one of the foremost women in literature and journalism today. Her rise from a poor white family to a great girl to her present position is a story that rivals fiction in interest.
Mary Antin was born in Polotzk, Russia in 1881, the daughter of Jewish parents. Her father was a well traveled and thoroughly educated man, but very poor. Her mother had considerable money at home, and she would reverse and sliness soon wiped away what money was left. When Mary was ten years old her father came to America with the aid of the Polish Immigrant Society, and three years later his family joined him in Boston. Circumstances were better but, unlike, but nevertheless Mary came a given a child education along with the other three children in the family'.
WRITES A BOOK BY EMILY.
Six years after she came to America, her parents Americanized. Her first book came out in 1899 when she was still eighteen years old. It was entitled "From Politzkot to Boston." This book caused much comment by teachers and others, and by means of it and other writings she was able to continue her education through a girl's school. The student graduated in the Teacher's College of Columbia University.
While she was in Columbi University she was married to A. ideas W. Grahau, a professor in tl University of New York, in economics and philosophy two years after her marriage. Her most famous work, "The Promised Land," which has been published internationally fame was published 1912. Her most famous lecture, which will probably be the one which she will deliver here is: "They Who Knock at Our Gates." Although much of her literary work in her maiden name
HAS A DOUBLE VIEWPOINT
Her first interest ever since she became a grown woman has been the imminent threat of violence, helped to better the conditions of the immigrants and to make real American citizens out of them. She has become one of the United States' most famous as well as a famous character.
To Mrs. Mary Antin Grahau everything appears in a double light. Every bit of knowledge that she picked up has been looked upon from the foreign and American viewpoint. She came to this country marked by many bumps, obstacles, but eager for more knowledge and susceptible to our ideas. She strove to get everything that was in her reach in an educational way when the great opportunities of this country were opened up to her. She was not satisfied with the public schools, school social settlement schools and then spent what time was left in the public libraries.
HER WORKS ARE WIDELY READ Mary Antin's work has been printed and reprinted in practically all of the larger newspapers and magazines of the whole country. She wrote "Atlantic Monthly," the "Outlook," the "American Magazine," and many others.
Twenty men from the University will attend the state Y. M. C. A convention in Kansas to discuss its connection to a statement by secretary Hugo Wedell, this morning. The following students have already signed up and more will come in in the next week. John Calenne, Rex Miller, L. A. Waltworth, Edward Todd, Benjamin Baltzer, Harry Harlan, Oscar Campbell, Lester Evans E. Price, Carol Hunger, Hugo Wedell, Hemri Herriot, and Richard Gelvin.
Miss Antin is passing through or her way to the Pacific Coast.
The tentative program of the convention was received by Mr. Wedel today and he says that it includes many speakers of national reputation and some of the foremost Y. M. C. A. workers of the country.

Four Former Kansas Men Are Working for the Allied Beligerent Nations
Kansas University is represented in the war zone not only by supplies of food, bandages, and clothes, but by four men who are taking an active part in the war. Harry Swingle, a part of theimore, Harry Berman, Paul Hawthorne are seeing service in connections with some of the armies.
Swingle, who is a brother of Wilbur Swible, fellow in zoology, is at present in this country buying horses and mules for the British army. Swingle served in the cavalry during the Spanish-American war and later was a non-commissioned officer. He also had a non-com in the British army for a time but was later detailed on the purchasing branch of the cavalry.
Fillmore, who attended the University last year, crossed over to England from New 'Orleans on a cattle ship and later enlisted as a lark. In his last letter, which was written in 1895, he问 what he was doing in the army there. Fillmore was a member of the Signor Alba Enslon fraternity.
Harry Waddell, who with Elmer Wible went to Bieriut College in Syria to teach shorty before the war broke out, is at present driving an ambulance out of Paris with the French army. He has had several narrow escapes while driving his car.
Paul Haworth, son of Prof. Erasmus Haworth of the geology department, is located in Egypt in the commissary department of the Australian continent of the British army. He is a longtime wrist during the Dardanelles Campaign and, as the bullet is still lodged in his wrist, he has not allowed to rejoin his company. He is in charge of a commissary store with twelve natives working under him. He writes his father that the national drink in them and then they afford some little trouble. On the day that he wrote his letter he had been obliqued to use the butt of a gun on one of the men, who, when he became conscious, even while going to war. Haworth rather expects to be invalided home within the near future as the surgeons hesitate to operate in that climate.
WILL IT CROSS THE KAW?
17.
Interurban Company Petitions for This Privilege
That interurban question is far from being settled as yet. No definite date has been set for the first regiment of interurban railway, and the tracks are ready as far as the Union Pacific depot in North Lawrence. There is still some question as to whether the interurban railway should be built under construction at the present. If the bridge is not built to accommodate the interurban, passengers for Kansas City, or for intermediate point will board the North Lawrence to board the cars.
The Kansas City, Kaw Valley and Western Interurban Company, which is building the line has asked a franchise from the city of Lawrence which will be used to drive from the city in case the company decides to build west to Topeka or salina. The plans for the proposed extension to Topeka are being seri-
If the interurban will not be allowed to cross the bridge the proposed franchise asks for a right of way east of the river. In case it is allowed to cross the bridge two exits to the west one on Sixth street and one on twenty-second street, are being considered.
PROF. RICE ATTENDS IRRIGATION MEETING
Before these options or the franchise as a whole can be accepted they will have to be passed upon by the city commissioners and then twenty days must be allowed in case a petition signed by ten per cent of the people should call for a special election to decide upon the granting of the op-portunity to the franchise at its special meeting today we shall know within twenty days how the town stands on the proposition.
About 130 delegates attended the convention, and nearly every state had a delegate there. Professor Rice was the only delegate from Kansas.
Prof. H. A. Rice of the School of Engineering was appointed a delegate by Governor Arthur Capper to the Railway Training Congress which was held in Washington on January 19, 20, and 21. The purpose of the convention was to discuss the question of national drainage and information, and to secure proper legislation.
ORATORICAL CONTEST ON
PEACE TO BE HELD FRIDAY
The students who will represent the University in the State oratorial contest will be chosen Friday to host a contest to be held in Green Hall Theatre. Six men will speak the contest beginning at 3:30 o'clock "Peace" will be the subject of the conference and officers will be admitted free of charge.
The winner of the local contest will be sent to Topeka on March 14 to participate in the state contest there. The winner of the state contest then represents Kansas in the national competition.

DAYS OF KNIGHTHOOD
ARE WITH US STILI
This is a tale of the Knighthood and brave and of a damascus in distress.
Silently an electric is driven 'past the entrance to the Daily Kansan office by Miss Elizabeth Sullivan, freshman College. She spies the muddy road ahead but it is too late. The cab is stuck, and the midden for a knight, a bold young knight, to rescue her from this sad plight.
"What he! A damsel stuck in the mud?" It is young Lancelot Koester, alias Billy. He advances with sturdy step.
"Have patience," he cries in his strong deep voice, "I will save these."
Calling for assistance to an unknown professor who happened to be passing at that moment, they put the device into their hands and rolled the vehicle out of the mire.
Thus are the golden days of knightly deeds still preserved even at the doors of the materialistic world, the heart of the sanctum of a college newspaper.
PRINCE BROKE A LEG
REGISTRAR EXPECTS OVER
A HUNDRED NEW STUDENTS
One hundred or more new students are to register in the next few days for work during the second semester, according to the estimate of Registrar Geo. O. Foster. So far, 150 registrants have transcribed of grades has been turned in at the office of the Dean of the College.
A large number of students from other schools are expected the coming semester, and many of these have already registered or written friends here, signifying their intention to be in hand at the appointed time.

QUIZ BOOK PURSUED HIM
This is a Great Story by a Student Crazed by Finals
SOME NEVER HEARD OF WOODROW
(Poor gink, have you read this far? Keep on then, you'll be immune).
Spring, the original and time-honored antidote against common sense, has an a rival—quizzes. Both bring forth an army of human vacuum machines cunningly designed to arouse the emotions and make one see the beauties of life. Thus these effusions classify as perfect, for men have been known to become so emotional over them that they saw their author and straightway killed him with a professor's joke.
But quizzes are of use in the world. Men whose chief intellectual efforts are to increase the University's enrollment and decrease father's roll and mint, have been known to mooch a thought or two before a quiz and keep in intact for several hours. Women who never heard of Woodrow Wilson and whose limit in logic is that one smile means one box of chocolates, have been known to memorize 3,874,845 pages in one night and make a "On" course they had never heard about during their five months in class.
(Aw, come on. Be a sport. What's the use of quitting now?)
And then they are the profs! Dear old encyclopedias! What on earth would a prof do if he never had to grade a quiz book? The answer: Deliver a few musty, moth-eaten, muchchewed lectures in the daytime and teach them how to read the Atlantic Monthly at night. Ain't it a crime, Mabel, the way these young foxes dissipate? But with the quizzes sometimes they have to think. It is enough to make a back cover to read what you have to look under a pretense of knowledge.
(Aw kid, there's only another paraphrase and we've too tall for the pulmonary spine.)
But back, Dobbin, back to that spring proposition. Spring is coming with its goloses and wet feet and love-lorn maids and B.V.D.s. But it might as well not come. The quizzes have been beating its time. There are more plaintive faces emanating sweet emotions than ever produce. Just as many men and women have discovered an unsuspected bond of sympathy and mutual desire this week, as any month of May can produce. Ye-eh, quizzes have spring backed clear off the map, but you might both going to occur together some day. (Water! Water! Stand back! Give him air. Someone's telescoped.)

WHAT IS YOUR IDEA?
The old idea of a library was that it was a place in which books were to be locked up tight; the modern idea is that it is a place in which books may be distributed and given as wide circulation as possible.
But the library of the University of Kansas is still a medieval institution. The only reason, probably, for not chaining the books to the tables is that chains cost money and we have not the money with which to buy them. No medieval library, probably, ever kept its books more tightly locked up than the books are locked in Spooner Library.
A lack of money has been given as the cause for not keeping the stacks open at night, for not having a more efficient system. If this is true and more assistants are the only Sesame by which the stacks may be unlocked, let us find some means of procuring more money. If no other way out of the difficulty may be found, it would be worth it to the students and faculty to pay an additional dollar fee each year for the modernization of the library.
We study waste of social energy in sociology, and all the time the library system confronts us as a forceful example.
Why should a University education be weakened, an education that cannot cost less than $300 a year, all for the sake of a library system that should have been remedied years ago?
The changes that the student body desire are that the stacks be kept open at night and on Saturday afternoons and that books be allowed to be drawn out at half past nine at night and returned again the next morning at half past eight. In case the books drawn out at night are not returned at the time agreed upon, a fine should be inflicted.
The librarians do not feel certain that this is the wish of the student body. The Daily Kansan is anxious to see the wishes of the student body and the faculty put into force. If you have any ideas about the library system and suggestions for remedies drop them in the communication boxes.
JUST AN ECHO
A carrier pigeon dropped dead in Kansas the other day from exhaustion. The journey was too long for the little bird and it fell—in the line of duty. ,
This little incident is like an echo from the past, when the pigeon was a bird of great use. The carrier pigeon fell before the advance of mechanical invention, the telephone, the telegraph, the wireless. They have sealed its doom. What has been left to tell of the pigeon's part in history? Nothing but an occasional echo which each year grows fainter.
Carrier pigeons were trained in the
days of Solomon. The Persians took a great pride in the birds and raced them against each other. From the Persians the pigeon was introduced into Greece, where they carried news of the victories of the Olympic Games all over the empire.
What Caesar, what emperor, what general, whose names are found in Ancient, Medieval and Modern History has not used the pigeon? In war this bird was found invaluable, the only means of conveying dispatches. All the countries of Europe kept farms and training schools for these carriers. They were an important part of warfare.
Business men, haueancers, newspapers, politicians, officials of the government; all have used the carrier pigeon.
But today, only in fortresses where there is no wireless service is the bird found and occasionally a newspaper receives reports of motorboat races by this service. The carrier pigeon does not belong to this age.
REMEMBER THE DATE
But let us hope that some poet looking back over the mile posts of history will realize the part played by the carrier pigeon, and write in appreciation of the faithful little servant of man.
The coming of Miss Ida Tarbell February 11 to the University is an event of importance to the members of the student body. Miss Tarbell probably more than any other living American woman, has fought long and hard for what she believes are the best things for her country. She has been merciless in exposing those grafters who have had much to do with causing our national shame. In exposing the Standard Oil company Miss Tarbell did a national service. Every student who is genuinely interested in the present day economic and social problems should hear Miss Tarbell.
The story of the Orrigan University student who used his fraternity pin as a police badge to coerce an unwilling woman to give him a story for a newspaper, will no doubt lead to a lot of inquiries as to just what Greek letter society he belonged to. They must have some pin.
Just listen, Kansas! Out there in Oregon they claim that prohibition cut down the receipts of the University of Oregon glee club, and put it in the hole.
"Roland," she breathed, "will you love me forever?"
"Ah, Clarabelle," he answered "until the Administration Building is completed will I cherish these aye, until the showers are repaired in Gym, and the stacks kept open at night."

"Ah, so you are here again!" he said to Valjean. "I am glad to see you, for you omitted to take the candlesticks along with the rest, though sterling silver also, so that the lot will realize you a round two hundred frances. Why did you not carry them off with the balance of the service?"
"Was the story true then, that we had from this man, my lord?" queried the gendarme officer. "We met him and he seemed to be on the run. We stopped him to see what was his little game, and found silver plate upon him." ...
Valpean distended his eyes and stared at the speaker with an expression which no human language can utter.
"Does your lordship mean that we are to let him go?" asked the corporal. "Of course," replied the bishop... "Gentlemen," he concluded, turning to the police, "you can go."
"Jean Valjean, my brother, you no longer belong to evil but unto good. It is your soul that I have bought; I redeem it from black thoughts and the Spirit of Perdition, and I offer it to God."—Victor Hugo.
They went away.
The folon seemed about to swoon as the bishop approached him and said to him in an undertone:
Crabbed Age and Yawn
Cannot live together:
Youth is full of pleasure,
Age is in full of care;
Age is like winter bare;
Age like winter weather
Youth like summer brave
Youth is full of sport;
Age's breath is short.
Youth is nimble. Age is lame:
Youth is hot and bold;
Youth is weak and cold;
Youth is tame. Age I do abhor them.
O, my Love, my Love is young.
Ake, I do dye the:
For methinks thou sayst too long.
— Shakespeare
The student lofter—and who is not at least partially one?—would do well just at this time to read William James, essay on *"habit."* Man soon becomes a man with wreak bundle of habits, he observes the character of the habits determines the character of the man. And a habit, acquired in the next few days, of applying one's self to study at regular vals for six hours a day will do wonders in removing that probation, or bringing up those grades which must be brought up.
THE VALUE OF LOAFING
Loafing may be a very good thing or a very bad thing. There are three varieties of loafing. There is that which is unadulterated and continuous, and which soon eliminates one from membership in the University, and which is mixed with a little work it is neither work nor play, but a pale example of both. This kills efficiency, contentment, self-respect. Then there is the valuable sort; it is "scientific loafing." It comes in intervals of recuperation and inspiration between hours of concentrated effort. This makes for efficiency; it makes play more enjoyable because earned; and it brings the maximum of happiness. Scientific loafing means also scientific working. And work is not a matter of heroism and of repulsive "grinding." It is a matter of habit—and of habit not impossible to acquire in these three weeks preceding the mid-year examinations.—Harvard Crimson.
It is impossible to convert either kind of parent. They know what college boys are like, for they have read about them in books. Harold's parents also think that if they know him pretty well.
If Harold ever comes up for discipline, it is probably not the faculty who are at fault, although the parents know full well that their son is the victim of some unreasoning persecutors. Arthur may spend all his time playing the uukulee, serenading so ced, but the chances are that he will work a little as well, as most sensible parents would expect.
THE COCKSUSE PARENTS
There are two classes of parents, bestestens sensible ones, possessed by college students.
One variety believes that the world is often leader in Christian Endeavor who is at his home for the summer, when never smoke a horrible cigarette or forget himself to the extent of retailing information in a quiz. The other kind of parents is sure that he is away from the family heartstone; the very first thing he will do is to buy a ukulele and start on the bread highway to perdition.

ANSWER RELIEF CALL
Edith Snow Expects Greater Response From Students in War Relief Campaign
As a result of an active week the War Relief Society of which Edith Snow is in charge shipped eight troops to New York for the war sufferers. Three large boxes of surgical bandages and linen were sent to the surgical committee of the National Civic Committee, and the New York War Clearing House.
In response to the appeal sent out by Miss Snow five fraternities made liberal donations of clothing and two boarding houses sent in a general aid material. No others have as yet signed that that had half of either old clothes or material from which bandages might be made. Mr Snow attributes this lack of interest to quik week, but hopes that next week will see even more supplies. The committee will make an effort and there is much stuff to be collected yet. The linen and the old clothes are collected at the same time. The committee will make a second collection next week and persons having made them and bandages might be made or old clothes should call Elis Snow, 2485 Bell, or leave with her at 706 W.12th St.
ALL CLOTHING USED
May Gardner, of the department of Romance. Languages is chairman of the committee to interest student girls in taking up languages. Friday afternoon has been set aside particularly for the students and meetings are held in the Unitarian Church. Meetings are also held on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursday, and Fridays and clothes are sorted, and the linen worked up ready for use in the war zone. The clothes that requiring are sent to the Lawrence school house to be mended. Clothing that has not been suitable for shipping has been distributed among the desitute families of Lawrence, helping them through the last cold siege.
LACTICAL MERCHANTS HELP "Alice is located in many ways," Miss Snow said. "She the Round Corner Drug Store, Dick Bros. stores have all sent in absorbent cotton. Wilder Bros., and the Model Laundry are doing laundry work free. Innes and Wewers' dry goods stores and Wewers' dry money. E. S. Strachan of Robertson's store has loaned the society a cabinet for keeping their supplies in. One of the young women students of the university is so enthusiastic about the work that she has her mother send supplies her each week with her 'aundry.'
Clark Reads
Miss Esther Kirk, author of "The Call of Kansas," was the guest of honor at the Kansas Day meeting of the History Club of Kansas City, Kansas, which was held last week. It entertained the Club by reading some poems. The day was set aside by the club to honor Kansas authors.
The supplies collected here are sent to New York to the national relief organization and are then transported to France by the steamship companies who pay their transportation over. Miss Snow expects to have a large number of girls out as soon as the quizzes are over.
K. U. 12—AGGIES 26
Jaybirds Loose Basket and Let Aggies Walk Off With Two Easy Games
Miss Clark Reads
Send the Daily Kansan home.
Bill Hamilton's five played a better game of basketball Friday night against the Aggie squad than they played on the previous night but even against them the score was decided against them 26 to 16 men were just naturally too fast for the Jayhawkers and played rings around them in all departments of the game. This gave the Aggies two straight games from Kansas and their way to the Valley championship for the first time in their history.
FIRST PAIR IN MANY YEARS
It has been a long time since the Aggies have defeated Kansas in two straight games. For two or three years the Farmers have always managed to slip on Kansas for one game but they never "get by" with two, and with each playball playing in such classes as they showed Friday night it looks like a whirlwind team for Merrigan.
The final score read Aggies 26, Kansas 12. This should have read Aggies 26, Kidney 12, for the midfielder. The kicking was Kansas. His five free throws in the first half prevented Kansas from getting shut out in this period. No Jayne could drop one through the ring altogether, so much often enough to make the score at least a hundred. Captain Cole had an off night and could not get the basket beaten during the entire night alterations. It was more than any other man on the sound.
AGGIES HAVE LEAD AT START
The Aggies took the lead early in the game, and no one scored a point except minutes no one seered a point except on free throws. When the Aggie forwards started going they wont and are hard. Ramsey and Rey nols start winning.
At the time for the game to start Appel appeared in street clothes with a brained wrist and was unable to go into the game. He had failed to answer questions, and sat the night before and had not notified Hamilton that he would not be able to play the second game, Uhrlahra under the position which Kennedy started on as night right. Both teams played through the entire game without a substitution.
PREPARE FOR WASHINGTON
We will be held every night this week in preparation for the time Washington comes to Kansas February 4 and 5, Hamilton hopes to have his men hitting their stride of victory. It is possible that some new faces

MEET NORMAL IN TRACK
Bill Hargiss to Bring His Squad to Mount Oread on February 7.
HAMILTON NEEDS MEN
At last Manager Hamilton comes forward to announce that the much-ought-after track meet has been scheduled. Bill Hargiss' Emporia Normals will come to Lawrence Feb. 7 for a meet with the Kansas track team on Monday. This is the same night which was offered to the K. C. A, C but refused.
Coach Could Use Sprinters and Weight Men Especially
As soon as the worst part of the quizzes are over the track men will get down to work more regularly than ever before. They must only two weeks remain in which to get in good shape for the meet and the veterans know that one has to work mighty hard to get in shape in two weeks. But most of the men are too tired to be on their way to their best before the Normalites make their visit.
The strength of the Normal team is unknown. At least no one around Lawrence seems to know what Hargill will spring on his former school, But Hamilton has warned him that they need not look for an easy meet. On that basis the coaches and team are going to prepare for any damn-sham truant to luck that it will be good enough to defeat the Normals.
But the situation around the Gym is not in the least rosy. The distance men are the only ones who can be trained at the gym to meet. Most of them are making time around their marks last year and expect to lower those records before the allotted two weeks are up. Rodkey especially is in good shape and has a valuable record for the Robinson cork. Grady has a record of 4:45:4 for the mile already this season and expects to lower that before long. Statcheter holds the sea-horse for the two mile run in 10:23 but Grady is due to lower that mark today.
Where the First National Conference on Flotation Meets Friday and Saturday
NEEDS SPRINTERS
But the worry of the coaches is not in regard to distance men, excepting quarter-milers. What Hamilton needs especially is material for the sprints; hurdles, weights and pole vaults. He will need them. There are a few trying for places on the team in this department but not enough to please the instructor. This was a woe not in the 1915 squad and a win will be spent in
THE MASTER'S CENTER
ma- the team this year since intends to withdraw at, end of the first semester. Campbell, of pole vaulting fame, will go to Rosseald to complete his med-course course in a good valuer is needed to top into league. bell will still be eligible for participation in K. U. athletics and may get to Lawrence for practice as well as for the meets. Several "high steppers" are after the hurdle jobs but at the time none have the places chnched.
RACE WITH AGGIES NEXT
This meet Feb. 7 will get the men in good condition for the Aggie meet Feb.
21. This second meeting will be a stiff
one and will require the Jayhawkers every effort to win. It will be held on the Manhattan track which will doubtless prove as much of a disadvantage to the Kansans as the Robotars did to the Farmers last fall.
"Surely in a student body of this size there are more track men than are out now. If any student has any ability along this line he is only hurting the University by not coming out. If he is not good enough to get on the team he will at least make the other fellow work a little harder."
If you wish to acquire a practical knowledge of shorthand and typewriting enrol in the Lawrence Business College Feb. 1,—Adv.
"We need more mien out for track," said Coach Hamilton this morning. "There are lots of chances for new men to make the team this year and it is not too late to get in the indoor meets. The first meet might come soon for the new men but they should remember that we have a complete set of rules we must follow to see men out especially for the sprints, pole vault, hurdles, and weights. We can also use some more distance men.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VOLUME XIII.
TELL WEATHER CHANGE
Through Efforts of the Kansan Government Forecasts Will be Made Known
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 27, 1916.
HOIST FLAGS ON FRASER
Privilege Only Granted Where Conditions are Good
Through the efforts of the Kansan, the United States weather bureau will supply the University with daily weather forecasts. Flags for announcing the predictions to the public from the flag pole on the top of Fraser Hall have been received and will be hoisted each morning.
It is not the custom of the government to grant this privilege unless the conditions are exceptionally favorable. The fact that the University observatory for the past forty years has furnished the weather bureau with the most complete reports it gets without cost, influenced the decision.
Following is an explanation of the
siemens:
The white flag, is used to display a forecast of "fair" "generally fair", "cloudy" or "unsettled" weather. (A forecast of "fair" weather does not necessarily mean "neutral" weather; it indicates a moderate precipitation is expected.)
The blue flag is used to display a forecast of "rain" or "snow."
The blue and white flag is used to display a forecast of "showers," "probably showers," "snow furries," the precipitation will occur locally.
The black pennant, No. 4, is used with either Nos. 1, 2, or 3 to indicate temperature changes, when they are forecasted. If the forecast is for warmer or "rising temperature" this pennant is hoisted so that it will be the highest signal on the staff. If the forecast is for colder weather or "lower temperature" the pennant is the lowest signal on the staff.
If more than one kind of weather is predicted for the ensuing night and day the forecast for the night will be represented by the uppermost weather flag, and that for the next day by the flag next below. For instance, if the forecast reads, "showers on Friday, fair," the blue and white flag are hoisted with the white flag immediately below it. If the forecast reads, "showers on tonight, fair" the flag displaying should be the black penchant on top, followed by the blue flag and below that the white flag.
The cold wave flag, white with a square black center is used when the forecast contains a warning of a cold wave.
PENN PREPARES FOR BIG
ANNUAL RELAY CARNIVAL
Invitations for the annual relay carnival of the University of Pennsylvania, April 28 and 29, have been received by W. O. Hamilton, and it is possible from the present outlook of things that the local trackman Manager Hamilton is undecided what the nature of his renly will be.
If a forecast for higher or lower temperature is made for either the following night or day, the black pen will be displayed in the appropriate position, but if higher temperature is forecasted for the following night and lower temperature the next night it will be so displayed that it will indicate the temperature change for the night.
The relay races are considered the most important track and field events of the year except the intercollegiate, and last year the entry comprised eight colleges. Many attend and in the one-mile relay event the Pennsylvania team made a new record of 3m. 18s.
Dr. Alberta Corbin of the department of German, will leave Friday morning for Topeka where she will deliver an address on the need for dormitories for the women students of the state schools before the Kansas Council of Women, who will be in their annual session at that time.

Finds New Bug
Earl O'Roke of the department on zoology has recently discovered eight new species of larval parasites feeding on fishes and birds. These specimens were taken from snails at the Pratt Fish Hatchery. These forms live on snails at first and later feed upon the birds and fish.

TUMBLERS TO MEET AGGIES AND SOONERS MARCH
"The prospects of a mighty good team are favorable," said Coach Coach Stanley. He should develop into a winning bunch."
The University tumbling team will meet the State Normalms and the Aggies in a triangular tumbling match March 17. Coach H. A. Lorenzo is also trying to arrange a meet onoma, and will probably be successful.
This is the first time a meet of this kind has been entered by the University. Coach Lorenz leaves judged for the tournament, to judge the tumbling contest between the Kansas State Normals and the Oklahoma A. and M. College. While there he will complete the arrangement with the Oklahoma college if possible.
The new semester will bring an increase in the enrollment of K. U. "As far as I can know, and guess," said George O. Foster, this morning; "we will have from one hundred to one hundred and fifty new students. That is the usual number that come in a new year." The reason why there should be fewer this year. Rather is it probable that we have more."
"The team has not been picked yet and won't be for some time," said Lorenz. "I would like to see every man at all interested come out. Every one will have an equal chance to qualify."
New Students Coming
Swingle Studies Tadpoles
Wilbur Swingle of the department of zoology has been experimenting on the effect of feeding thyroid glands to tadpoles. The data compiled by Swingle was used by Prof. Allen at the meeting of the American Society for the Advancement of Science held recently in C'umbus, Ohio.
Exhibit Etchings Here
An exhibition of etchings, which have been collected from all parts of the world by the Chicago Society of Etchers, will be open to the students tomorrow. The collection fills three rooms on the third floor of the Administration Building. The exhibit has been in all of the large galleries of America. It came to Lawrence University in New Orleans. Several lectures will be given on the Art and Process of Etching by Prof. W. A. Griffith.

The first issue under the new executives will appear Monday.
Mrs. Amy D. Winship, K. U.'s oldest student, who keeps young by attending one university after another, has left Lawrence, where she has finished a course in the University of Kansas, for Tennessee. She will visit for a short time at Fisk University at Nashville, as the guest of C. W. Marw, president of that institution. From there she will go to the University of Tennessee, at Athens, Georgia, where her master she will spend visiting at the Camp Hi'l Institute of poor whites at Alabama, leaving there in time to begin work in the summer school at the University of Wisconsin.
OLDEST STUDENT WILL
VISIT SOUTHERN SCHOOLS
"K. U. has made me younger than ever," said Mrs. Winship the other day. "We have enjoyed the work thoroughly and have met such delightful people."
Mrs. Winship took work in sociology and psychology and never missed a class from the time she enrolled early in school until a few days before she left.

TO DISCUSS FLOTATION
Metallurgists to Meet at K.U. for First National Conference on Ore Reduction
NEED A CHEAPER PROCESS
High Price of Minerals Turns Attention to Improved Ideas
A national "experience meeting" in regard to the further utilization of the recent scientific discovery known as flotation, will take place at the Chemistry building tomorrow and Saturday.
Representing the University at the conference will be Professors W. A. Whitaker, George Bechic, A. C. Terill and Mr. Neal.
The conference was called by officials of the United States Bureau of Mines interested in the development of the new and more economic process of reducing mineral ores. The honor of acting as host to the Union conference was waived to the United States, as the result the activity of members of the institution's faculty in research work regarding flattening.
Representatives of the United States bureau of mines will include:D. C. Lyon and O. C. Railston of the bureau of mines at Salt Lake City, C. A. Wright, of the mine bureau at Joplin, S. P. Acree and R. C. Palmer of the forest product laboratory. Others who have written that they are interested are enrollees in the University of Wisconsin and Professors Anderson and Thornberry of the Missouri School of Mines at Rollo.
To date, most of the research work to improve the methods of flotation have been done by persons in different countries and laboratories. Little cooperation has been possible. The conference here will enable these men to get together and exchange ideas, which they hope will bring immediate commercial results. Some of the participants smoker at the University Club in honor of the visiting mining experts. George Belchic, of the State Chemical Research, with laboratories at the University is the designer of the equipment used in the preparation bases on the principle of flotation.
About $15,000,000 worth of lead and zinc laying useless in the vicinity of Galton, the leading lead and zinc manufacturer, caused Mr. Belchick to seek a new method of milling these two minerals so that the waste would be less. Mr. Belchick started his investigation by using his new machine in working order.
This new form of milling the lead and zinc, or in getting the ore in proper shape for smelting so that the waste will be comparatively easy to mix with the blown climes with water and a small amount of oil. The mixture is then agitated and a froth which contains the lead and zinc minerals ready for the smelter rises to the surface. No expensive machinery is necessary to achieve this result, so great an outlay as do those now used. It is estimated that this machine alone will save mine owners of the state a million dollars a year.
H. C. McClure, graduate of the School of Engineering of the University of Kansas, has been appointed commissioner of engineering Ohio. The appointment is effective February 1, paying $250 a month.
K. U. ENGINEER GETS A
GOOD JOB IN TOLEDO
McClure will replace the chief engineer of the city, who was appointed by the mayor. Councilmen in the city will hold dispensers of this patronage and many of them have appealed to the powers to allow the demoted chief engineer to remain, but it appears that he must, but its cabinet have decided on McClure.
For a time after leaving the University, he was employed in the engineering department of Kansas City. Shortly after this McClure was employed by the board of education at Toledo. He is president of the Toledo Society of Engineers, an engineer of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and a holder of a degree from the University of Michigan.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate in-depth life of a go further than merely printing the news, and grandly proclaiming that college could; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful to be charitable; to have more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to appreciate the students of the University.
THURSDAY, JANUARY 27, 1916.
Some men go mad by studying much
more, and they study more,
studying good to know—Franklin.
FIRST OR LAST!
Kansas is optimistic if nothing else.
If she cannot be first, she strives to
be last and then claims that she is
first.
The most dishonorable state in Kansas is to be neither first not last. That is the unpardonable sin.
And Spooner Library ranks next to last.
The library that has the distinction of being first in being last, is the Corpus Christi College library at Cambridge College. This library cannot be unlocked without the common consent of three officials who carry keys to the three separate locks. If at any time twelve books are out of the library, the library legacy goes to another college by the will of the donor.
But sometime, drew irrevocably to modern ideas, that library is going to allow those twelve books to get out. Then will Spooner rank first.
We will not even have to purchase three keys for three officials.
It will not require the output of any money to carry us to this position. Possibly that will be one reason why we can get there so easily.
One key and one lock and one official has proved all that is necessary to keep inviolable the stacks of Spooner Library.
K. U. HOSPITALITY
K. U. hospitality is not an unknown quantity among the students at the University—but do our friends over the state know all this? Probably not, but a good opportunity is going to come to the students the week of February 7 to 11 to show what real hospitality means.
If you are not sure that a merchant from your town will be here see Mr F. R. Hamilton, Director of the Extension Department. All those who will attend have registered with him.
It's your chance to show the home folks that you are true blue, not college snobs.
WHO GETS THE PRIZES?
WHO GETS THE PRIZES?
Students should take more interest in the various contests that are being offered in essay writing in the University and over the country. It is not so much the monetary value of the prize offered which is worth while, but the good that is bound to result to the student working in such a contest.
Of the many contests in Economics, in Dramatics, in Peace, which are offered each year to college students over the United States, no one has of
late been able to carry off a prize from the University of Kansas. Our student body is surely as intelligent as any. We surely have individuals who are capable of turning out a prize-winning paper.
Is there insufficient interest in such contests, or is K. U, too busy with other more important matters? We refuse to ask if there are none whose ability permits of winning such a prize, in competition with other college and University students.
COLLEGES AT THE TRAPS
Eight years ago the first college gun club in this country was organized at Yale. Shortly afterward, Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, Penn State and Williams followed.
Several years ago the Yale club decided to employ a coach, the three-year eligibility rule went into effect, and freshmen were barred from the representative teams. Today the four teams in the Intercollegiate Trapshooting Association, Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Cornell and Dartmouth, are awarded letters, numerals and intercollegiate trophies.
Trapshooting is recognized as much as other minor sports at eastern universities and colleges and the trend of the lay enthusiast is to make it an instructive sport.
If trapshooting is good for the East why not the West? Why couldn't Kansas shoot at clay birds and meet Missouri or any other school in this new sport?
A LITTLE BAIT
How do college songs come into being?
Possibly all that have been written in the past were written because of a spontaneous and overflowing love for Alma Mater. Possibly—but we don't know. However they came, Columbia proposes to have a new song.
Columbia isn't waiting on any chance visit of the muse. She is throwing out a little bait; bait that is worthy of consideration, even at Columbia. A cup and $100.00 is offered for the best school song submitted under the following conditions: The words and music must be original. No adaptation will be considered. Words and music may be the work of one or of two men, and in making the award, the words and music will be judged as a unit. Furthermore, songs submitted will be judged for their spirit, their musical quality and their adaptation to general student singing.
Columbia would probably not consider it unfair competition or the violation of any existing statute if other colleges and universities adopted the plan in order to produce something new with an atmosphere which "belongs."
If the book exchange is efficiently handled, one may be able to procure at a reasonable price a complete set of notes for that course next semester.
Better think twice before sending our actors up there to Lincoln. It's a rough place. And be sure to take that heavy paper-knife.

"Too few instructors are interested in education.
The promoters of this institution contend that one who is a master of a subject is not necessarily a good teacher of that subject, and they say that it is possible to graduate from almost any college without an idea in one's head.
"With high specialization often goes absorption in specialty.

and read life's meaning in each other's
Communication must be signed or evidenced of good faith. See the notice without the writer's consent.
To back up these statements they cite five reasons which were presented in a report by President Butler of Columbia. The reasons are—
to the Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars was asked to construct a middle section of the Administration Building. This section will be built upon the foundation already laid just west of the present "Ad" building. It will feature the University administration offices.
The Lawrence Business College will organize new classes in shorthand and typewriting. February 1- Adv.
But what K. U. needs most just at present is more classrooms. Too, the administration could easily use more teachers; too many are too small and in some of the departmental offices the teachers are packed like sardines in a can. But this lack of teachers affects two-thousand students.
CAMPUS OPINION
"Preliminary and introductory explanations should be made to show students the purpose and method of a course.
According to the architect's estimate, it would cost about $150,000 to build the west wing of the Administration building. This would contain as many rooms as the present wing. Since this is the case, why would it not be better business to let the most expensive room be built in the university—and build the west wing first? That would materially relieve the present congestion.
In view of this, does it not seem availble to devote a new building—when a new building be built—to classrooms rather than to offices?
The removal of the administration offices from Fraser Hall will vacate only six rooms—the present quarters of the administration.
It would cost $100,000 less than the promised middle section.
TO EDUCATE EDUCATORS IN
EDUCATING
"The psychological, not logical order should be followed in presenting matter to students."
A new Institute of Public Service directed by Dr. J. W. Allen has been founded with the purpose of educating professors in the art of teaching. As astonishing as is the purpose of this new institute is the fact that it is fully endowed with funds and is not asking contributions.
"Teachers are careless as to everything which affects a student's manners, speech, conduct and sense of proportion.
Yes, we want more offices, and we hope we will get them, but first we want more classrooms.
eyes.
—Susan Marr Spawlding.
"There is a bad tradition which so largely prevents the inspection and supervision of the work of young teachers by their elders.
"Every lesson, however familiar its subject matter, should be carefully prepared by the instructor.
"There is a misleading and mischievous notion that one who is a master of a subject is thereby of necessity a good teacher of that subject."
"Dealing with only one student in the time of a whole class should be stopped.
The six correctives for college teaching which are given in the same report are even more interesting. They are:
"Mere lecturing should not be tol-
erated—much less my drerying.
"Class room work of younger man should be observed by elders.

A series of tryouts for the track squad have been arranged for next week so that Coach Hamilton can get a line on his men before the Nov. meet Feb. 7.

The events will be run on different days in order that the trackers can repeat in two events if they like. On Monday, the mile run, high hurdles and thirty yard dash will be held. The low hurdles and the pole vault will be Tuesday's work. Wednesday the two mile, half mile, and the high hurdles will be run. The distance men especially will have time to rest up for a quarter because the mile two mile, the quarter and half are two days apart.

It sometimes happens that the team is picked long before the tryouts for the meets but such is not the case this year. Hamilton has very little idea who will start the Normal meet for Kansas. This fast alone gives the movie a chance of surviving in these tryouts will serve for the first meet but additional tryouts will be given before the other meets.

WANTS MORE MEN
Coaches Hamilton and Patterson are especially anxious to have as many men as possible take part in the preliminary tryouts. Even if they do not get in shape in time to make the team for this one meet they will have more chance for the second meet if they start training now. Heats will be run in all events except the longer distances and even when it is hard will get fond tryout in any event he wants to take part in. There is no limit to the number of events one man may enter.

What is the average mortality over a period of thirty years or more in your life insurance company?
L. S. Beighly
"Here is the chance for the man who can do anything in track to show up," said Coach Hamilton last fall. "And I think that every student in the university and the veterans will not have any advantages over the new men. We need more men out for track and the time to get them in shape."
Coach Patterson who has charge of the distance end of the track squad is looking for material out of which to make a relay team. He is also in need of some more equipment, Olecot is calling for more weight men to swing the bag of shot around. It is a case of "got to have 'em".

There is no attempt to sell them on a cut price basis. The question of their greater value is left entirely to your judgment, to your ability to compare them and to decide between them and what you may be offered elsewhere.
