ENGLAND WILL DRAFT
Policy of Compulsory Enlistment Is Determined Upon By Asquith
ACTION IS LAST RESORT
Premier Says Country Must Have More Men at Once
LONDON, May 2—Premier Asquith this afternoon announced that the Government has decided upon a policy of immediate and general compulsory enlistment in England. The announcement was, made in the House of Commons.
The Premier's announcement came as a complete surprise. It had been understood that the prime minister would give the voluntary system of obtaining recruits for the army a few weeks more trial before asking the enactment to recruit married men eligible for service as well as single men included in the conscription measure which recently passed Parliament.
Earlier in the controversy leading up to the cabinet crisis over the demand for general military service, labor organizations and labor members of Parliament took a vigorous stand against the drafting of married men. It was generally understood at that time that Arthur Henderson, labor member of the cabinet, and two under-secretaries sign immediately before the cabinet decided to implement compulsory conscription. Asquith held several conferences with radical labor leaders to whom he is said to have offered proof that more men were imperatively supported by England at once.
The government will introduce bill for general conscription.
Labor Troubles Break Out at Steel Mills
RIOTING AT PITTSBURG
PITTSBURG, May 2—Early police reports said three men were killed and foury injured in rioting at the Braddock plant at Braddock this afternoon.
Fiske Attacks Daniels
PITTSBURG, May 2.—Following serious riots, in which three were killed and at least forty injured many seriously, as the Edgar Thompson Steel Company's plant at Bradock, Sheriff Richards announced this afternoon that the militia would be ordered at once. He made that statement after a hurried conference with state officials.
CHICAGO, May 2—The last plea to save former senator Wm. Lorimer in his trial as an alleged bank wrecker was made by counsel for the defense today. The state then began closing arguments.
Washington, May 2—The veracity of Secretary Daniels was attacked today in a letter sent to the Senate by Admiral Fiske. A ruling by Vice-President Marshall suppressed the report for a time, but Senator Lodge, who also had been given a copy made known the gist of the contents.
WASHINGTON, May 2. The House this afternoon passed the agricultural appropriation bill carrying a total of $24,500,000.
COLUMBIA, MO., May 2-The probability that the Missouri State University, owing to shortages in the Major Administration treasury, would not be re-opened next September was suggested in Columbia this afternoon after the final meeting of the board of curators this morning.
Urges a Placement Bureau
Press a凳凳 button.
With assistance, carefully, of a Placement Bureau at the University of Washington comes the query, "How much does our University help in securing positions for its graduates and former students?" The School of Education places many of its students in undergraduate programs in an effort on the part of the University to aid both its graduates and former students, such as we find in most of our large universities. These universities do not consider their duty ended with graduation, but that it exceeds what they do because Kansas fall behind these others in regard to this spirit and not get busy and establish a similar bureau?
A small boy delivers clothes for a private laundry in Lawrence has developed the art of hauling a wagon containing a basket full of clean clothes behind a bicycle, until he has become very proficient at it. He can haul a much greater load than he could carry, and does it very quickly.
K. U. AND NEBRASKA
TO CROSS RACQUETS
For the first time since the spring of 1914, K. U. tennis followers will have a chance to see Captain Dix Teachorner assistants in competition in an intercollegiate tennis match.
Just as an added attraction to the already long list of sport events this week, came the announcement this morning by W. O. Hamilton that the Kansas and Nebraska tennis teams will meet Friday and Saturday on the Varsity courts.
HOP SURPRISES ALL
Capper's Lame Duck, Cabaret Confetti Carnival Features of Party
Remember the good old days of the kerosene circuit when the villain used up forty-one rounds of ammunition chasing the fair maiden in that thrilling drama entitled "A Bucket of Blood; or the Fight in Nugget" before noisy noise at 1:46 last Saturday morning in Robinson Gymnasium. And the hall was a brilliant riot of brilliant paper streamers thrown over wires strung across the ceiling and colored confetti flying through the air and settling in the hair—and mouths—of the two hundred dancers. That's the way the whole evening from the time Governor and Mrs. Capper appeared on the receiving line until the lights winked at the sleepy chaparres on 2 a.m., one surprise after another was thrown at the guests. And when the ingenuity of the shop manager, was restoring Haley's shot off a round or two from his six-shooter to wake-up the professors' dress suits on the side-lines.
The Hop was the largest given in recent years. Among the unique features were the midnight fare, the carousel, the candlelight cabaret supper, the confetti carnival, and Governor Capper's lame duck with Dora Lockett, the K. U. Beauty (see 1916 Jayhawker), and novel music by Hale's orchestra.
Guests were received by Mr. Linus Fitzgerald president of the sophampore class, and Missora Lockett, Governor and Mrs. Arthur Carpper, Mr. Don Davis, and Miss Margaret Hodder, Cancellor and Mrs. Frank Strong, Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women.
MUSEUM RECEIVES BABOON
FROM LAWRENCE SHOWMA
Another dog-faced baboon was given to Dyche Museum, Wednesday, by N. G. Fairly, the showman who lives a mile east of Haskell. Although Mr. Fairly has been the victim of Uni-iversity animal attacks, her appearance of his show in Lawrence, yet he never hesitates to donate to the University animals that die during the winter stay at the farm. Many who attended the University three years ago will remember the raid made by the students upon Mr. Fairry's death. Yet the next time Mr. Fairly has given four knee snakes, Pythons and Boa Constrictors and two valuable specimens of baboons to Dyche Museum.
The skin of the baboon given Wednesday will be used for a mounted specimen and the skeleton is now being cleaned by boiling in a Sal Soda solution, and will be mounted for study purposes.
The dog faced baboon like all primates is found only in the old world. This species Papio hamadryas, the Sacred Ape (Thoth) of the ancient Egyptians, is the commonest monkey found throughout Abyssinia, and lives out in the open country preferring rocky precipices to the woods.
The bulletin boards in Fraser Hall are interesting places at present. Lists of scholarships and fellowships from the most noted colleges and universities of the United States are posted and are well worth attention.
Helen M. Hayes, former student in the department of journalism, has left the Great Bend Tribune to take a place on the Hutchinson Gazette.

KANSAS CITY, May 2.—Three hundred machinists from twenty-four contract shops are out today on strike for an eight hour day and an increase in wages. Railroad shops are not affected. Employers refused to renew heir contract at more than the present scale—45 cents an hour.

WHAT! NEW BUILDINGS?
Governor Capper Says K. U.
Needs More Equipment,
More Room
AN APPROPRIATION SOON?
Chief State Executive Says Legis-
lature Will Provide for School
The time has come for the University to receive an appropriation sufficient for a new building, at least! This was the sentiment expressed by Governor Arthur Capper, the guest of the University at the Soph Hop Friday evening, in response to a query to his attitude toward future education. The former showed his appreciation of the size and importance of the state's chief educational institution and of prestige throughout the country.
SCHOOL NEEDS EQUIPMENT
U. has a strong faculty from the Church to teach her. U. governor, "but it takes something more than a big chancellor and learned professors to develop a big school. They must have facilities with which to work—buildings and equipment. People have a right to expect a skillful workman to have the best of tools to handle his output."

WELCOME SCRIBES
The University, through its department of journalism, will this week play host to some of the most distinguished newspaper men of the nation. Arthur Brisane, considered by many the most powerful editorial writer in the country, Chester S. Lord, former managing editor of the old New York Sun and teacher of a score of successful writers, Roy Howard, head of the United Press, a self-made man who has raised his organization to the foremost among news-gathering associations, Joe Mitchell Chapple, editor of the National Magazine, and a score of other modern super-pens, who are directing the policies of American journalism, will all be here. The week will be the opportunity of a lifetime, for students of the University to hear and see these men. The wise ones will avail themselves of the opportunity.
National newspaper week will be watched all over the country. The reports of its sessions will be read in offices from one end of the nation to the other. For one week the University of Kansas will be the center of interest for the entire publishing trade. It is a big opportunity and K. U., as Kansas institutions have a way of doing, will make good. Every student in the University should consider it a part of his duty to see to it that the visitors are made welcome.
The old idea that to be a typical college chap one must be a follower of Omar Khayyam is rapidly passing.
THE LITTLE THINGS
A student took down the periodical index for 1914 from the periodical reference shelf in the library, and started to look up the bibliography for President Wilson. The last "W" index pages had been torn off by careless handling.
The last few pages having been torn out, the index was worthless for the last four letters of the alphabet.
It's the little things that count.
Think of the fellow who can't find his collar button when dressing for the dance. Surely the little things do count.
THE COMING OF BILLY SUNDA
It is with mixed feelings that the Kansan views the coming of Billy Sunday to the University of Kansas. Sunday is a great man, in his place, and is undoubtedly a force for good in the United States, but is his place in the forum of a University? Will the Sunday sensationalism have its desired effect on the students of Mount Oread? Is it fair to expect a University, the home of culture and intellectuality, to receive an emotionalist with equanimity?
Much will depend on what Mr. Sun-
day says and does when he talks in
Johnson gymnasium Thursday morning.
If he takes his audience into consideration and follows the cardinal principle of public speaking in suiting his words and his actions to the mental plane of the people whom he is addressing he will be successful. If he does not and attempts that ultra-sensationalism, both in speech and gesture, which has made him the best newspaper copy in the United States, he will fail. It is safe to assume that the University does not possess an atmosphere which will take kindly to such statements as: "Td like to see the color of the buck's hair that can dance with my wife! I'm going to monopolize that hugging for myself."
And this: "You stand there and watch your wife folded in his long, voluptuous, sensual embrace, their bodies swaying one against the other, their limbs twining and entwining, her head resting upon his breast."—
No. K. U. banished such smut when it killed the "Sour Owl." The end does not justify the means.
What has become of the old oj-fashioned girl who folt it an insult if her escort failed to bring flowers when taking her to a dance?
THE TAFT STOCK
The Christian Science Monitor tells of William Howard Taft's activities while at Yale. Two stories told, illustrate the big American in the making:
Professor William H. Taft has just been telling a Massachusetts audience how his father, when a lad working on a Connecticut valley farm, complained to his father that the stubble in the fields hurt his bare feet. "Stub 'em down, Alphonso, em 'down," said the Spartan parent. The disciple instructed him. "In all it tilted the walked down to Yale and began to study in an institution that then was conducted simply and without any social accessories or organized athletics. Later, when the son William went to Yale and was wanted for the crew, the father, Alphonso, refused permission. "I did not send you to the university." "What would get an education," was his decree. So the future President attended strictly to business; and he never has been sorry that he did.

CAMPUS OPINION
A prominent graduate of the University recently wrote the Board of Admiralty.
ARE YOU THE GUILTY ONE?
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names may not be published.
"I am of the opinion that students must be the staples of the University by appointment statements
something like this—A student in the Art course from my town whom I believe, graduates this year, was quoted saying, "I love my Law Department was the 'sop' on the hill and that the Law students just loafed around and smoked cigarettes and pipes and did not have to worry about the lawsuit. I can get through the Law Department."
"When I was at the University such statemetrs were rife from the students of one department of conditions in another department of which they knew practically nothing, but believed by persons away from the University to whom he was sent, I know that as I students personally and conversed with them over their work at the University, I found in every instance a student who was there for business, and appreciated that he was equipping himself for life work, that he was required to cover more ground in his assistance than he could get done to his own satisfaction. I know the above was my experience and I personally know it was the experience of practically every student there, and the student who spreads such statements as the above referred to will always have been better prepared, course he is mastersing the heaviest and hardest one on the Hill, and that it taxes his ability to the limit to get the work."

(Continued from page 1)
the courtesy of the Topeka Capital The public as well as the students is invited to attend any or all of the lectures.
Mr. Blanchard made the following statement this morning.
"I believe these annual conferences of Kansas Newspaper men mean more to the journalists of the state than they have any idea of. It is a clearing house of ideas and a center of information. The list of speakers secured for this year is exceptionally strong."
At a dinner talk made at Manhattan two years ago at a similar convention, Mr. Blanchard said that the inauguration of the Newspaper Conference meant the dawn of a new era in Kansas journalism. This morning he said that his expectations appalled. He cited the improvement especially in the smaller papers and the organization of the Central Newspaper Bureau of Kansas as direct outgrowths of the Conventions.

Engineers Have An "Uncle Harry" Green Who Grew Up With University
Send the Daily Kansan home to the folks.
Years ago when the Engineers of the University were accustomed to stopping the cabs in which the Laws rode to and from their annual party, Mr. Jimmy Green stopped in which Uncle Jimmy Green was riding with Mrs. Green. As soon as Uncle Jimmy spoke, he was given an ovation by the boys of Marvin Hall, although Marvin Hall was not built for him. Uncle Jimmy stopped the Engineers have a Green of their own, almost as long in the service of the University as Uncle Jimmy. Uncle Harry Green, godfather to the students of Eagle Harp, now makes his bow to the public—needs no introduction to the Engineers.
SAW EXCITING TIMES
Uncle Harry Green has been in the shops of the University for over twenty years and recalls many stories of stair and sober professors. He has seen all of the buildings except Fraser, Snow, Blake, Spooner, and the Medical building go up. He has served under two chancellors—Dr. F.H.Snow and Chancellor Strong, and has seen a superintendent—Whitehill and Shea. He recalls the time when Registrar George O. Foster was a member of an ever-victorious K. U. football team and that Prof. Wilson Sterling, now of the department of Greek, was a coach. He saw the hard race and put up when he freshman tried to make him take off his hat and bow to the freshman pole, an institution that all of the upper-classmen had to worship in those days of freshman bravery. He saw also the race that all of the freshman freshmen, but he beat them to a house in which he took refuge, going home to supper very late in the evening. And yet Uncle Harry stood on his head in the middle of the shop floor only a day or two ago. He turned away, and a few minutes later was sixty-five years old and still boasts that he covers much space with a broom in a day as any janitor on the Hill—although to avoid offending the Engineers we must not refer to him as a janitor very often.
Monday was Uncle Harry's seventy-second birthday, and his wife's sixty-second and it was celebrated at the Green house with due respect for the late Sir James A. Cook, who died in London, England on April 17, 1844 and shortly thereafter went with his
CAME HERE AFTER WAR
parents to London, Canada. At the outbreak of the Civil War, when Mr. Green was seventeen years old, he enlisted in the American army and served not only throughout the war, but six months ahead in the campaign of Custer against the Indians. This it was that Mr. Green first came to North Carolina, just being finished, in that year, having received, in the course of his military service, three honorable discharges and his citizenship papers he came to Lawrence and entered the employ of the University and is still here. He is not yet, however, the old man, in point of years served, as Dan Johnson, four years longer than Mr. Green. He is the oldest as regards age, however.
As a signal honor to Mr. Green's business ability, he has been elected without opposition to the treasurership of the Woodman lodge for eighth year nineteenth term. Mr. Green is an old man now but the Engineers hope that he will be here for many years for he is a shop institution and when he there will be something missing in the shops that cannot be replaced.
LOCAL MICHIGAN ALUMNI
TO ORGANIZE WEDNESDAY
A meeting of the Kansas branch of the Michigan alumni will be held in the chapel of Fraser Hall Wednesday evening at 7:15.

The meeting will be thrown open at eight o'clock to the public and three films of student life will be held in seven universities of Kansas films that have now been shown here.

Dockeray, who will relate incidents of interest to the alumni and to the members of the University of Kansas including the various traditions of the school.

FAST MEET PROMISED ANNUALS THURSDAY
The first event of the busiest week in K. U. athletics since the Nebraska football game, is scheduled for this afternoon when over one hundred players are expected to compete on McCook Field in the annual spring interclass track meet.
Acting as it does a docs a tryout for the Nebraska duel meet Friday, both Coach Hamilton and Coach Patterson are out of competition. A competitive competition shown in interclass meets. The fact that several promising freshman distance men have announced their intentions of trying for K's by playing against suspected to add to the class of the meet.
PUBLISHING BUSINESS LIKE
FARMING SAYS WALKENHORST
Urging that the Missouri Valley Cost Congress now in session at the University of Kansas get down to business, President H. W. Walkenhorst, Kansas City, opened the fifth session this morning in Green Hall.
Printing costs and their treatment by publishers and printers were like managers in management and selection of equipment for pedient handling. The demand upon the printer to know his cost of production thereby insuring stability of business was emphasized and all printers attending were urged to accept it.
The University of Kansas is considered by Mr. Walkenhorst the finest and most wholesome institution he has ever seen or visited. Climbing the hill elevates one to an atmosphere of refinement and culture, which, in his opinion, are ideal for the delegates to the fifth session.
President Walkenhorst outlined the work and stated the purpose of the meetings for today and tomorrow. Improvement of conditions and practices, the adoption and adaptation of new computer printing problems will be the subject treated by the Congress at large and their speakers on the program.
HEALTH COMMITTEE ON SANITARY CONDITIONS
A meeting of the health committee of the University was held Thursday afternoon, in the Gymnasium. The meeting was called to order by the chairman, C. A. Haskins, associate Professor of Civil Engineering, and the time was mainly devoted to a discussion of Dr. James Naismith's plan of securing data on the sanitary conditions of the buildings.
This is a sub-committee, under the general University Health Service, which has been established for the purposes of safeguarding the health of students by the committeeposed of one representative from each of the University buildings. It is their duty to meet once a month and report on the sanitary conditions of the buildings, and to suggest means of improving the other meeting of the committee will be held next Thursday afternoon, May 5.
Annuals Are Two Days Late o Account of European War" Johnson
Send the Daily Kansan home to the folks.
The 1916 Jayahawk will not be out until Thursday morning at 10:15 o'clock, according to a statement by Manager Ross E. Busenbark yesterday afternoon. "The books are ready in Kansas City," Mr. Busenbark said, and they come on sale Tuesday it would have been at a great sacrifice in quality.
"I was in Kansas City last Saturday and the head of the company which has the binding contract told me that he could turn the books out Tuesday but that if he did the binding would be too 'green' to hold, because the volumes would not have enough press, I was offered the incentive of green the book out on time and giving the students an inferior volume, or waiting two days and giving the best that money can buy. I brought one of the new copies over to Lawrence with me and it is evident that the binding is not going to hold. By waiting until Thursday we will turn out a good book in every respect. We will give you it we will be willing to abide by their decision." The program, which was announced in Friday's Kansas for Tuesday will be given in the same way on Thursday morning.
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS
HAVE CHAIN-LETTER
A chain-letter is being circulated among the alumni of the electrical engineering class of 1915. Each member receiving the letter adds an enclosure to the description, tells his present occupation, and sends it on to the next alumnus. This letter was forwarded to Elmer J. Burnham, one of the alumni, while he was visiting in Lawrence this week. It had passed through only five hands since his last visit, and has grown to sufficient size to require ten cents postage for delivery. By the time it reaches the fourteenth and last man, Burnham says, it will have developed into a parcel post package. The thirteenth man will have to pay $20.00 to cover the longer the letter the more interesting it is to the reader.

Track Meet, Baseball and Tennis All Come Friday and Saturday
ATHLETES TO BE BUSY K. U. PLACES AT PENN
With a dual track meet, a state high school meet, an interscholastic tennis tournament, and three baseball games, the coming week end promises to be some busy little time in K. U. athletics. And particularly so in the branch of track athletics handled by W. O. Hamilton.
Friday afternoon on McCook Field comes the annual dual struggle with the Nebraska Cornhuskers and despite the continued poor shape of Rodkey, Kansas hopes for a repetition of last year's 82-27 score. Thursday and Friday at Manhattan, Coach McCarty's Jayhawker baseball squad will be given their first competition Missouri Valley Conference competitive reign *oll at Manhattan with the Kansas Aggies. With his pitchers in good condition, a clean sweep of the series with the Farrar is hoped for. Saturday comes a non-conference game with St. Mary's on the Catholics' home ground.
But it is the thirteenth annual high school meet Saturday that will be the big event of the week and the one that will give Manager Hamill fourteen events in each of the three diuretics of the meet it is a monster job that Coach Hamilton and his assistant will have before them in running the meet off in the hours before the game. Last year one hundred and sixty-nine athletes from thirty-seven high schools competed and if an early list of entries counts for anything the number will be two hundred this year. And Syracuse were the winners of the Class A, B and C divisions last year.
Medals for the winners of the first four places of each of the forty-two separate races will be given, making a total of 178 bits of gold, silver and bronze that will be distributed to the team captain and pen to the cups given to the individual winner winners of each class and the school winning in their division.
Along with the state track meet and lasting all day Saturday is the sixth interscholastic tennis tournament. Central and Westport of Kansas City proved the whole show in last year's tourney.

Treweeke Ties for Third—Reber Loses by Three Inches
After journeying half way across the continent to enter the Penn Games in Philadelphia on Saturday, Richard Treweke put K. U. on the field in the high jump. And placed in the high jump. His leap was five feet, eleven inches, which is two inches lower than the K. U. record which he established this spring. But it was sufficient to give him a share of third place in the big eastern meet.
Treweeke has been unable to work out regularly on McCook Field this spring owing to the disgreeable weather which made high jumping easier than it was. But Coach Hamilton knew his high jump could do and never hesitated to send him against the best jumpers of the east.
The other Kansan entrant was Captain Bonnie Reber, who entered the shot put and discus throw. But Reber was too small. At least he was small when placed beside Arlie Mucks and some of the other giants were all only beaten out of a place in the shot put inches and will make up for it when he meets the other weight men of the Valley in Columbia, May 27.
The two Kansas athletes have not returned to Lawrence yet as they took this opportunity to explore the eastern part of the U. S.
K. U. DEBATING SOCIETY
CLOSES YEAR WITH FEED
The K. U. Debating Society closed the year's work Thursday evening with a hike by its members to Cameron's Bluff where a campfire feed of potatoes, pickles, apples, coffee and stores served. Away along towards the greater hours of the night, the party seated around the smouldering embers told the last story, made new the resolve to make next year's work more enjoyable than the past, and then wended their way towards the lights and the Hill.
M. N. Read, who won his "K" this year as a member of the winning team against the University of Colorado, as president of the society will launch the work of the coming year with renewed energy. The aim will be not only to stimulate interest in general in debate but also to furnish men qualified to represent K. U. on the varsity teams.

COST SYSTEM EXTOLLED
The installation of cost systems in printing plants, whether in metropolitan or country fields, and a strict adherence to the demands of the market will lessen the wreckage of business in the printing industry. Cost systems will produce efficiency, stop the leaks and raise the credit of the fifth largest industry from three place to somewhere near the tenth.

A similar stunt is being pulled by W. R. Smith, state printer, and former newspaper man in Columbus, Kansas to spend his nights home to Topela to spend his nights
t Mr. Mickel, in his address, "The Psychology of Selling Printing", this morning before the editors, stated that the selling of printing is a problem of the mind, and that the success of the business depends on the ability to see, feet and hear psychologically as well as physically. Selling his product is no longer a matter of entertainment for the customer, but a matter of logic. The salesman must also be familiar with all kinds of business, so that he may know what works and improve them with the value of his product for their particular need.

Marco Marrow, advertising director of the Capper publications, talked for creative business. That the printer and publisher may get the business that is not voluntarily brought to the office, it is imperative that he have ideas to sell the merchant. A house organ was recommended as a stimulus for getting the new ideas in printing matter accepted.

INFORMATION SYSTEM
Following the adoption of cost systems, what is needed further is a standardized system, the same in every office in every part of the country. This slant on the subject of cost systems was given by Joseph Tychotethe and Franklin Clubs of America. The goal toward which the National Typotheta is working, is the installation of a system that will pay. A million dollars has been appropriated by the organization for this work.

NO MONEY TO DAY EITHER
THEN BLUE TILL HE HEARS FROM HOME
GREEN IS THE STUDE WHEN HE FIRST GETS IN.
W. J. Hartman of The Hartman Co., Chicago, talked office efficiency, his assignment of yesterday afternoon which was carried over into today's program. Labor and machinery are the two strongest producers of efficiency in the back office, is the opinion of Mr. Hartman.
PROTECT WORKMEN, URGED
The protection of workmen from injury and HI health prevents inefficiency in the performance of his daily work. Keeping the machinery down and using fire cuts down the employee's limitations for accidents to a minimum. Sanitary conditions in the plant makes everyone satisfied and insures the highest per cent of efficiency.
The country editor was exhorted by Mr. Hartman to make another effort to break the present practice of the government in letting contracts for envelopes and stationery which are sold at post offices, far below the price that the editor or publisher can print them at. An appeal to their congressmen was thought to be one means of stopping this practice.

New York, May 3 — Working for a special mach race with aviatior De Lloyd Thompson, Dario Resta drove his car over the two-mile Sheepy Valley in 197 8.5, cutting two fifties of a second from his own record.
"The University in general is not opposed to Billy Sunday's coming," said Chancellor Frank Strong this morning in commenting on the opinion expressed in the metropolitan panel of the University was opposed to Sunday's visit.
RESTA CUTS TWO-FIFTH
SECOND ON OWN RECORD
"Personally, I am glad he is coming and think that the majority of the faculty members and students feel the same way about it," he continued. "A small minority of the faculty members do not but that is not the general sentiment." "So far I have not heard of any professors who are so vigorously opposed to Sunday that they refused to dismiss classes to enable their students to hear him. I don't believe that any professor will hold his class until 9:30 p.m tomorrow although no general convocation will be held."

Newspaper Week Gives Real Atmöspherte to University Daily Kansan
If one usually thinks in the terms of the Greek art department, of course the journalism offices are a beastly noisy turmoil. But when one has the taint of printing ink in the blood, the Dull Kansas quarters are decorous as an old mural whose knitting needles click while she hums.
But yesterday something happened to the ruralistic peace. In the news office a new machine sputtered, clicked and clanged, while a crowd of men inspected it with the minute and educated interest of a Kentuckian looking over a thoroughbred. Some even found interest in a poster near the machine stating that the Linograph 600 and paid for along with the piano, the phonograph and steen-cents-a-day type-writer.
Across at the editor's desk a telegraph instrument barked incessantly like an excited young terrier telling of something which only his master could understand. It was a special wire from the United Press rapping out the big news of the world which had "broke" since morning.
And near the door a dusky Filipino sat behind a large desk under the label "Register Here." As the men came in and scrawled their identification on a slip, the Filipino gave them round badges bearing their names and supporting a mysterious round case. For half a day the men consent to tdc the cases burden their memory and disarray that they are tape measures, put in their pockets to give to the wife or favorite child as a compensation for the joy of being rid of "the old man" for a few days.
Over the scene hangs a light cloud of smoke through which a crowd of men move and jest and puff fat cigars. Some receive a glad hand from the students who mix in and help the adults, who are acknowledged with pleasure, and perhaps one or two receive the indulgent smile of all-knowing youth.
Then there are the tables with papers for writing and printing, and beautiful pamphlets showing that it is useful as well as ornamental paper. In the press room are more types of paper these easier to folding machine, the wire sticker and the latest type cabinets on display there.

TROOPS IN PITTSBURG
45,000 Munition Workers Walk Out of Plants This Morning
Pittsburgh, Pa. May 31 While the state militia marched into the Westinghouse strike zone today the move to remove the governor an eight hour day gained strength
The first troops to near the scene of yesterday's wild riot entered East Pittsburg shortly after 9 o'clock. At the same time several thousand employees of the McKees Rocks plant of the Pressed Steel Car Company walked out. At least 45,000 workers in the munitions factories were out today. Some of the leaders put the troops striking at from five thousand and to ten thousand in excess of that figure. The government was under only militia unit on duty in the strike zone at ten o'clock. Other troops were expected there at any time. Martial law had not been declared but was virtually in effect.
F. C. Lynch is probably the only one of ten K. U. alumni who is affected by the strike among the munitions workers. The other nine are affected by the strike. Lfinch has a managerial position in the munitions department. Dean Walker of the School of Engineering said this morning that other electricals who expect to work for the firm, Co., will their graduation this spring, will probably not be affected even though the strike should be prolonged.

IRISH LEADERS SHOT
Three Rebels Executed Today,
Premier Asquith Announces
CHIEF SECRETARY RESIGNS
Augustine Birrell Quits as Result of Revolution in Island
By United Press Leased Wire.
London, May 3—Peter Pearse,
president of the Seven Days Irish Re-
cruitment Army, commander of the army of the Irish Republic, and a third man whose name was not given, were found guilty by court martial and shot to death this morning. Their executions were announced in the House of Commons this afternoon by Premier Asquith.
They were the first of the rebels whose execution has been publicly announced. Practically all the rebel prisoners have now been removed from Dublin. About three hundred more including several leaders, were arrested. Explained and under remainder made up largely of prisoners of the rank and file, were taken to Beafast under heavy guard by Irish troops.
Pearce, one of the best educated of the rebel leaders, was the head master of a boys' school in Dublin at the outbreak of the rebellion. He was chosen to be an inspector in the republic. Pearce led the assault on the general postoffice. He was wounded in the leg in last Thursday's fighting and surrendered to the government. When he was questioned, he signed a preclamation calling upon his followers to lay down their arms.
Connolly was also wounded in the street fighting. The British authorities received a report Saturday night that he had died of his wounds. It was later learned that he had been shot in the face and signed to a number of passports for prisoners, with the title "Commander of the Army of the Irish Republic."
In an order of the day issued in Dublin, Gen. Maxwell, commanding the troops, complimented the troops for gallantry during the fighting with the rebels.
LOCAL ARTISTS APPEAR
Professor Nevin and Mrs. Olcott Loudly Applauded at Evening Concert
Assisted by several of the members of the School of Fine Arts, the Minneapolis Orchestra yesterday played in the gymnasium to the doors, both in the afternoon and in the evening. Great appreciation wash shown and the appeal of the orchestra even before its previously established reputation here.
Prof. Joseph A. Farrell, of the voice department, undertook a difficult task, when he sang a long Wagnerian selection, Pogner's Address from the opers, "Die Melatersinger." That the feat was successfully performed was shown by the applause given him.
During the evening concert, Arthur Nevin, professor of music, stepped on up Oberhofer's pedestal and conducted one of his own compositions, and she sang in a band comprising five short pieces of a lute vein. It might be called program music, but Professor Nevin did not employ cheap imitations, which are so natural that they are unconventional, as many modern composers do. The poet poem, "The Brook at Dawn" possessed the highest merit of the group.
Lewis Grauveur, baritone, who was to appear on the program, was called to New York suddenly, on account of his injury. She was alsoHowver, Mrs. Herman Olcott was equal to the occasion, and with only a few hours notice was able to fill the room. She sang the Blind Girl's Song from Mozart's opera, "Don Giovanni."
The afternoon performance given by the orchestra was quite heavy. One of the best pieces on the afternoon's program was Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. This is declared by many critics to be the most soul-appealing of all musical works, and Emil Oberlieger, the conductor, did justice to its reputation. "Tschakowski's Marche Slave", the choreographer, was blared out by the trombones and basses, making the effect very dramatic. The Russian nationif hymn was brought to conclude the piece. A selection from Wagner's opera, "Siegfried", was also played. In the evening concert, Albert Lindquist, tenor, made a hit with the audience, as usual. Mr. Lindquist's song was an aria from Goethe's "Rosa Rosa", Leonore Alonen, soprano, selected for "Murielle", by Gound, and was healtily enforced. Tschakowski's Fourth Symphony and Dvorak's overture, "Carnaval," were the most important pieces played. Two of Massenet's works were also given.

"HOW WHEELS GO ROUND"
Blanchard Will Talk on the Making of a Newspaper
Newspaper life has always been a favorite theme employed by novelists in their stories. Thackeryer, "Pendennis" is perhaps the most famous of these novels. An air of mystery seems to hover over a newspaper office. The editor is popularly conceded to be a man of unlimited intelligence and inventive little tin gold on wheels who goes everywhere, has free tickets to all shows, and is invited to all the big banquets.
Frank Leroy Blanchard, editor of the Editor and Publisher, of New York City, who has worked on New York papers for twenty years, will lecture on "The Making of a Metro Museum" at Phaedra Hall at 5.0clock this afternoon.
He will take the audience through the office of the New York Herald and tell just how a great daily is conducted. It is an address of thrill and excitement, with its lanten slides, Mr. Blanchard will show reproductions of the first newspapers printed in the United States, "Public Occurrences" in 1690, and the Boston News Letter" in 1704, and also the earliest newspaper ever published.
He tells the story of the New York World's great beat in 1893 when the Victoria accidently sank the Cameraman, and 400 officers and men lost their lives.
Mr. Blanchard has filled nearly every position in a newspaper office. He introduced Jay Gould and William H. Vanderbilt when they were the most important figures in the railroad world. When Vanderbilt died and Wall Street wanted to know Gould's opinion as to the effect it had on his business, Mr. Blanchard's interview with the latter was the only one given out by Mr. Gould and every newspaper in New York read it.

By chance the government official that had to do with the appointments comes into the office, recognizes the office-seeker and gives him the desired position if he will successfully pull the tooth. After a great deal of fun the operation is successfully performed.
The cast was made up of: Ray Walters, J. Homer Horritt, Gerry Eroyd, Gladys Drake, Philip Levi, James Barker, Jeffrey Sullivan, Kelby Mathews and John Tucker.

Now forget the sad old past
And enjoy the springtime air,
While the birds sing everywhere.
The wind is whistling through th
Something's growing everywhere. My! how the birds do sing On this happy day of spring.
Violet dot the roadside,
Dancing in the sun,

Where underneath we run.

Shining through the leaves so bright
Four-leaf clovers are plentiful now,
It's nearly time to follow the plow.

BASEBALL SQUAD RESTS
Team Will Leave For Aggieville Tomorrow; Two Games With Farmers
From the atmospherical conditions that have prevailed on Mt. Oread since the first of the week it would appear that the K. U. baseball squad has had its last practice before the Kansas Aggie games Thursday and Friday. This last practice was Saturday afternoon while the squad will leave for Manhattan tomorrow morning at 6:00. On the weekend the players from the Jahawkers will drop off for a game with the Catholic team in St. Mary's Saturday afternoon.
As for the Aggie games this week Kansas ought to win easily. The Farmers were downed by Missouri in two games last week and failed to show a team better than the one they had on the field for spring. The Aggies have not been able to hit in their games this spring and anyone who has seen Smee and Craig in action feels safe in saying that they will have a hard time landing many safe blows off the Kansas star pitchers. The two regular pitchers, while Polio or Fischer will get a chance at the Catholics Saturday.
The Kansas sound has had a good rest from conference games later. Only two have been played this season, both being with Ames at the beginning of the season. This gave Kansers a good teamship team, but before the banner is brought back to Lawrence this year some unusually good playing will be necessary. Missouri has a team that has not lost a game this season and McCarty's men will have to do some mastery fast work to down the Tigers.
The only consolation the Jayhawkers have in lying idle during the bad weather is that the Farmers are also staying indoors. Neither team is getting into the game at all. Coach Merzeni Manhattan show that Coach Merzeni is worrying more than is McCarty.
KELLEY ENTRYS NATIONAL
RIFLE SHOTOING CONTEST
Sherwin Kelly, E. 17, was the only student in the university who entered the contest for the Individual Gallery Rifle Shooting Championship of the United States, which was held by the National Rifle Association during the first three weeks of April, when he shot a bullet into the city in the "H" Company Armory, April 15 and he is still waiting for the results to be announced.
The National Rifle Association is a non-military organization including in its membership marksmanskers from all parts of the country. Official rifle competition positions may be shot in April on regional ranges under N.R. A. supervision.
Fifty shots are allowed with an hour to make them in. Kelly's score was 483 on the basis of a possible 500, but no high hope of becoming champion.
M. U. PROFS IN HARD
SOCK; NO PAY CHECKS
San Antonio, Tex., May 3—Heavy rains which rendered the roads impassable had a number of supply trucks stalled at the Columbus base today and headquarters officials were considering a change of road. The headquarters quartermaster communicated with the base and was advised that the Mexican roads slashed by the wheels of heavy traffic would be effective barrier to automobile travel, since the rains set in. Troops, it was stated, have a large supply of food and forage and are not likely to face a serious situation.
Mud Stalls War Supplies
Columbia, Mo., May 8—Through an arrangement made with local bankers yesterday, the salaries for university employees up to June were guaranteed, but after that time new arrangements must be made.
For the past few months the University has been running on borrowed money, and yesterday for the first time in the recent history of the school checks to university employees were held up. It was announced that these matters made possible the payment of salaries today. Dr. A. Ross Hill, president of the university said that he hoped state finances would improve by September, if however, no money is forthcoming from the state he said arrangements must be made with the school through. He said he was not so certain this could be done.
FORMAL FOR WOMEN ONLY
Frosh and Soph Women Hostess to Upperclasses
Another one of the so-called feminine movements taking the form of a spring formal will be given May 20 with the freshmen and sophomore gym women acting as hostesses to the juniors and seniors. The upperclass women will receive invitations signifying their manner of dress, and asking their presence at the big spring formal. A deep cloud of secrecy hangs over the affair which will tax the keeping-quiet power of those who are sure to be sure, but their costume, the little diverting stunts between dances, and the outline of the whole thing is to be known to a very few.
Each class will have some stunt or novelty dance given by the whole class cr by a few of its members, which will not only live up the scene but will afford entertainment and amusement with various tunes, symbolic of the various features on this intermittent program will add color and uniqueness.
Miss Gladys Elliott who is planning the feminine spring formal suggests that the upperclass women shine around in freshies and sophistication determined to have every University woman in the Robinson gym this Saturday night," said Miss Elliott "There will be enough entertainment to satisfy every woman without in it the enjoyment of the dances."

Muscinate, Iowa, May 3.—With hundreds of men laboring day and night against the highest water ever known in the Mississippi river here to prevent the leeves from breaking, the fight seems lost today as the water, still rising is climbing over the tops of the bulwarks.
Hundreds of families are moving from their homes in South Muscatee, while the Huttig Manufacturing Company, Barry Manufacturing Company and Door Factories and a dozen of smaller plants have been compelled to shut down. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of finished lumber is threatened at the Roch and Muscat Companies, where it is being loaded and rushed to safety.
Muscinate Island, famous for its watermelons and sweet potatoes, is completely inundated. If the levee breaks south Muscatine will be a surging sea of water as the river now six miles wide at Muscatine, came up five inches last night with a rise of sixten inches predicted still to come.
Pittsburgh, Pa., May 3-District Attorney Jackson declared yesterday afternoon that he would summon a special jury to investigate possession of naturalized foreigners participating in strike riots here in which several were killed and injured.

Has Borrell Resigned?
BOOK WINS THE APPROVAL
London, May 8 — Rumors that Augustine Birrell, chief secretary for Ireland, has tendered his resignation to Premier Asquith because of the Dublin rebellion were in general circulation today following Birrell's return from Dublin. The Daily Chronicle "Parliamentary Correspondent" reported it was rumored in the House of Commons lobby that not only Birrell would be General Friend, command of the forces in Ireland and several other officials have resigned. It is certain that Birrell will be under heavy fire when the motion for his resignation is called up for debate in commons.
Visiting Newspaper Men and Printer Unanimous in Praise
Dedicatory services of the 1916 Jayhawkmer will be held on the steps of Fraser Hall tomorrow morning, at the close of Billy Sunday's address in Robinson Gymnasium. Editor E. M. Johnson and Manager Ross Busenbark will make short speeches, and Manager Busenbark will present a copy of the rules of athletics to whom the Manager of athletics is dedicated. Immediately following, the books will be placed on sale at the Fraser Hall check stand.
Universal delight seems to be the attitude of all persons who have seen the copy of the book in the possession of Manager Busenbark.
THORPE PRAISES ANNUAL.
Prof. Merle Thorpe, when he was showed the copy of the Jayhawker now in Lawrence, said that h reconsidered it a good Annual in every respect. The cuts are clear and the kodak section is by far the largest that has ever been seen in a Kansas year book. He adds that the three-color work in the senior section makes it unusually attractive. The artistic posters which are used at the beginning of every section of the book, are done in three colors, red, green, yellow, etc., and are equal to images seen in the best magazines.
W. B. Brown, head of the journalism press and one of the printing authorities of the state, says that the Jayhawker is the best example of its own work, but it has never seen "the symmetry of type faces and the arrangement of the layouts shows near perfection in the art of printing." Mr. Brown said, "and I will work on the entire book is a credit to any printing house in the country."
Newspapermen and visiting printers at the department of journalism were unanimous in their praise of the Jayhawker and Editor Johnson and Business Manager Busnarkbur are the best people among the people who have seen the book. The winner of the Vanity Fair Contest, Miss Dora Locka, a junior in
the School of Fine Arts, from Anthony, Kansas, is shown in three poses which are almost perfect reproduce drawings and photographs which were taken by Squires.
EDIT DUE CON SQUIRES
CREDIT DUE CON SQUIRRES
"The late Con Squires and the late Con Lewis of credit for the success of the Annual." Mr. Busenbark says, "for without his help and suggestions in the art section of the 1916 Jayhawker, the book would
never have been what it is. Jay Hawkwer staffs in the future will miss Con Quires, for he has done more to raise the standard of the books put out at the University, than any one man in Lawrence."

But it is worth it to inform you,Mr.Business Man of Lawrence, that the University Daily Kansan is either a good advertising medium for you, or that it is not worth anything at all. This truly student paper is one of the two extremes as far as you are concerned.
If You Have Something to Sell to Students
you are almost bound to advertise it in the Kansan to draw the students to your store. It is THE medium between you and them, AND THE ONLY ONE. Your advertising in the University Daily Kansan appears alongside the copy of reputable business firms whose owners you are glad to greet on the street. Advertising in this paper is set as you direct, in new type that has a full face, with neat attractive borders, displayed so that the reader cannot help but see it.
"Advertise in the Kansan"
is a phrase you hear used every day when a student enters a store. They don't rush up to you or your clerk and inform you of the fact that they saw your "ad" and that they want an article just like the picture shown, but remember, that the best stores in Lawrence have advertising space regularly in this paper and that they are the best stores because they have students' trade and you ought to be able to figure out for yourself just what Kansan advertising space is worth to you.

APPROPRIATIONS AND CAPPER
He who multiplies Riches multiplie Cares.
Ben Franklin.
Two years ago Arthur Capper was a candidate for Governor of the State of Kansas. At that time, while making his campaign, he talked to the students of the University from the steps of Green Hall, and he told of the needs of K. U. and how he would be glad to aid the school in getting what it needed, when elected. All K. U. believed in these promises and cheered vociferously for the future governor of the fair state of Kansas.
Last year the legislature met. Appropriations for the state schools came before the body. The Governor, in the midst of his heavy duties, forgot that the state University needed buildings, that the class-rooms were crowded, and that the equipment was inadequate and antiquated. The University failed to receive the appropriations hoped for.
While visiting the campus last week, the Governor admitted that the University has a strong faculty, but that "they must have facilities with which to work—buildings and equipment." Arthur Capper, candidate for re-election, is ready to admit that the time is ripe for the University to have a sufficient appropriation.
Campusology continues to bat 100 per cent efficient. And cuts are frowned on by members of the class.
We hope the Governor really feels the time is ripe. We, here at the University, have felt so right along. We felt 10 when the appropriation was up before the legislature last winter, and was refused.
May we hope, that after the Governor is re-elected. that he will not forget?
THE LITTLE THINGS
It was the day before elections. The various candidates were being discussed.
"Well," said the freshman College, "I'm going to vote for A——B——for he always has a pleasant smile, and speaks when he meets a fellow. You don't have to be all dilled up to get a pleasant word from him, either."
It's the little things that count.
THE POLITICAL SITUATION
The University of Kansas will hold its annual spring elections tomorrow. Those running for office are tearing their hair in an agony of suspense. If the political methods used in the last week are any indication of the kind of election that we are going to have the student body and the faculty are in for a surprise. All indications point to a cleaner political situation than at any time in the last few years, and, with this spirit in the foreground, it will be unfortunate if anything is done tomorrow to create scandal. There is little doubt but that the fall elections
were dishonest, to what degree it is impossible to determine. Such conditions reflect upon the entire school. Log rolling, and stuffing the ballot boxes may be expected in large city elections to a certain extent but in the University of Kansas, corrupt political practices have no place. They are manifestly contrary to the ideals of a university and the student who allows himself to be drawn into crooked political gangs is deliberately hindering the development that he should obtain while attending college.

GOOD MUSIC APPRECIATED
University lovers of high class music were given a treat yesterday, in having the privilege of hearing the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra both in the afternoon and evening. The Orchestra has some of the best musicians in the country in its personnel.
Lawrence is fortunate in being able to bring them here as a part of the University Concert Course. The appreciative audience that filled the gymnasium at both concerts, is proof that there are those at the University who are glad of the opportunity to support good music.

POET'S CORNER
Paul Lawrence Dunbar was the first of the Negro race to evince an innate distinction in literature. Both his parents were in slavery before he became a student of Puskin in Russia, both had negro blood in their veins, but Dunbar is the first of pure African blood to take up an interest in literature. He wrote about the relation of the limitations of his race and delightfully, their characteristics.

TOO SEVERE ON GIRLS?
Editor Daily Kansan:
Indignant.
The writer of this protest is a firm believer in strict school discipline and regulation, and is in no sense in sympathy with the knackers. However, when injustice is done to fellow students, University student to protest, when injustice is done to fellow students. The writer wishes to protest most emphatically against the practice of the women's gymnasium department in forcing injured students to make injuries which were caused by injuries received while doing gymnasium work.
Another case is that of a freshman girl who injured her ankle while in the pool, and missed two weeks of gym as a consequence. She, too, must make this up. Such a practice is inexcusable and unjust to the injured parties and should not be tolerated.
Two examples are cited. One girl, a sophomore, received a wrenched shoulder while giving an exhibition gymnasium lesson. She was compelled to miss nearly three weeks of gym. Yet the department has insisted that she must make this time up before receiving any credit.
SENIORS! PAY YOUR DEBTS
Editor Daily Kanan:—
The Class of 1916 owes some debts in Lawrence that ought to be taken care of right away. The action of M. A. A. Bickel, who owns a grocer at the local store, St. St., was perfectly justified. I talked to Mr. Bigelow this morning and he said that he thought the debt could be settled without the action of any court. He doesn't want the news to go out over the state that the students are allowed to do their business neither do any of the others to whom the members of this class are indebted. Whether the members of the class as individuals have known anything of our obligations does not matter. The fact remains that the class owes the students money to pay them the rent cents from each member would meet all obligations.
While I will acknowledge that the merchants of this hamlet are about twenty years behind the times; do not back the school in the way they should; don't support the University Daily Kansan in the way they ought to (the business manager of the Kansan tells me that the paper receives less support its circulation is limited, indoors, down in their pockets to entertain visitors as do the merchants of other towns—still, we should not try to beat one man out of nearly $60 to spite the rest of the gang.
I have my twenty little red copers ready to pay to some committee which President Randolph ought to appoint at once. I want to see all
these debts paid. I want to leave school without a biot on my class. Most of all I don't want to have my school advertised out over the state in the way the Toppea Daily Capital newspaper seems to take pride in advertising her.
Let's get together, Sixteens, pay off this debt, create a better spirit between the school and the town, and maybe someday, the Lawrence Merchants and Farmers Association will awaken to the real significance of the University of Kansas and how much it means to them in bread and butter. Teachers should ask that students have to educate their elders, but, if some of my business friends down town would turn loose enough money to get out of town once in a while they would see some of their own shortcomings.
CHAPEL ATTENDING PROFS
Senior.
Editor Daily Kansan:
Question: How do the professors make themselves consenting?
Answer: By their absence at chapel!
Complain has often been made because more interest is not taken by the student body in the chapel hour. Plans have been used to arouse interest and secure a larger attendance of the students. We do not use some of the professors' services. Should they not be head promoters of the morning service? Only 2 per cent of the whole student body attend chapel and 2.7 per cent of the professors! Almost the same in general average. Should it be thus? According to number there should be fifteen times as many students as professors at chapel each morning. But since the profession of our situation does not show enthusiasm for the service, what can be expected of the students?

Men's Student Council Petitions Chancellor to Install Army Work
WOULD HAVE IT OPTIONAL
No Compulsory Instruction Is Asked by Students
The last and the most important of the official acts of the out going Student Council at its last regular meeting last night was to petition the Board of Education and the State Board of Administration to sider the advisability and the ways and means of establishing elective courses in military tactics, engineer-ered courses in the University. The Hay Bill, now in effect, Congress, would authorize the War Department to co-operate with the universities in the country at large for the establishment of such courses, conduct of such courses therefrom as officers in the reserve.
The following are the resolutions as adopted and submitted to Cancellor Scott
REQUEST CONFERENCE WITH BOARD
CONFERENCE WITH BOARD
"Whereas, Pending national legislation would state that officers on citizen reserve corps are strong, and would make liberal provisions to the co-operation of the Federal War Department and American Universities in training citizens to reserve officers,
"Therefore, Be It Resolved:
"1. That it is the opinion of the Student Council that the University of Kansas should prepare to give courses of instruction in Military Science;
"2. That the Chancellor be requested by the President of this body to confer with the Board of Administration and the faculties of the University, concerning both the desirable and the nondesirable means of establishing elective courses of instruction in Military Science in the University of Kansas."
The courses thus proposed would be taught by officers and instructors hired by both the state and National governments, and all phases of military training would be included. The Government would desire, should the measure pass Congress, to turn out the graduates of such courses as experts in military science and tactics could be available for officers in a resort or the shorter army in case war should be declared. It would be in the neighborhood of 50,000 these officers available in a few years after the establishment of the courses in a number of the larger Universities in all parts of the country.
PLAN USED IN EAST
GO IN EAST
The eastern schools are pushing the idea, and with the good presents that the bill has in congress at the present time, a number of the larger ones are already planning to establish the proposed courses.

Osborne, former governor of Michigan, who has been mentioned as a presidential possibility, will be there.
Sigma Delta Chi will meet with Missouri-Nu chapter Thursday afternoon, May 4, during Journalism Week. The national president, Roger Steffan, editor of the Sun, Durham, N.C., will be in charge, and will probably make a public talk in the Journalist Week program.
The local chapter will entertain the visiting journalism students the three days of the convention. Lunchcens, will be given for them probably Thursday evening and Friday noon. All guests' will attend the annual Journalism Week Made-in-America banquet Friday night at which William J. Bryan will be one of the speakers.
Delegates from all parts of the United States will be present. The national officers of the fraternity are: Chase S. Osborn, former governor of Michigan, honorary president; Roger Stefan, editor, the Sun, Durham, N.C.; William McMahon, member of faculty of School of Journalism, University of Montana, vicepresident; F. M. Church, Detroit, national secretary; Robert C. Lowry, the statesman, Austin, Tex., treasurer; Lee A. White, member of faculty in journalism, University of Quill, the fraternity publication; Frank Mason of the American Boy, Detroit, expansion secretary.
SCHOOLS TO BE REPRESENTED
SCHOOLS TO BE REPRESENTED The following universities and colleges will be represented at the convention: De Pauw, Kansas, Michigan, Denver, University of Washington, Indiana, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, Nebraska, Iowa State, Leland Stanford, Montana, Louisiana, Kansas Agries, Maine, Chicago and Beloit College.
Vernon A. Moore will represent the Kansas chapter in the convention in Columbia. He will break away from the Editors Convention in Lawrence this afternoon long enough to show the orientation of the national conference that the Beta chapter of journalists is the live bunch of the fraternity.
Supervised study was the subject of discussion at the meeting of the Pi Gamma Sigma, educational sorority, Thursday evening. The discussion brought out the methods used in various places for this aiding of backward children. The purpose of the plan is to give such students an difficult day's work, where indi- vidual attention. The usual plan is to have this study period come after the regular day's work, and the enrollment in the classes entirely optional. The idea is proving successful in both grade and high schools.

ORGANIZE SCHOOL SURVEY
Thirty-two Kansas Cities Enrol for School Investigation
Thirty-two of the leading representative cities of the state have written to Dean F. J. Kelley of the School of Education, signifying their intention to co-operate in the continuous school survey which is being started by the Bureau of School Service of the University.
Blanks will be mailed to these cities in a few days. These blanks will be filled out from the statistics and reports of the past school year and returned to the University where a report on the comparative standing of the different schools in the survey can be made.
It is hoped to extend this survey to all the larger schools of Kansas and in this way to standardize the school systems and to put their work on a more uniform basis. The survey will probably extend over a period of three or four years before it is completed.
The following schools have written for blanks: Ottawa, Neodesha, Caney, Abilene, Minneapolis, Arkansas City, Junction City, Clay Center, Emporia, McPheson, Wichita, Osborne, Pratt, Maryville, Kansas City, Senea, Garner, Omaha, Spokane, Winfield, Salina, Hiawatha, Fredonia, Hutchinson, Newton, Manhattan, Anthony, Holton, Fort Hays, Cherryvale, Pittsburg.
SOME ARE FOR SOME
ARE AGAINST NEW FRAT
"I am anxious to see a chapter of Sigma Delta Psi installed at the University," said Dr. Naismith this morning.
"I can see no place for such an organization," Cocham Hamm said, last minute coaches.
Each man supported his belief with sound and logical reasoning, too. Dr. Naismith is of the opinion that the organization is rathef for track athlete than man proficient in other branches of sport, but that', taken as a whole, it takes a good all round athlete to pass the membership test.
"It will create interest in the physical side of our University life and thus have a greet it constructive value," he said. "University physician this morning."
"We have too many fraternities now," said Coach Hamilton, when questioned about the new athletic order, which includes being of be to any value to us if we do get a chapter of Sigma Delta Pi installed. There is enough union, and close enough friends'ips are formed on our campus, but there are others for any other form of organization."
The fact remains, however, that tryouts will be help some time in the near future. Students who favorable a charter will be applied for. The fraternity is strictly honorary in nature, not social. Membership is only gained by passing an examination outlined in their founders, and any other University member is allowed to compete for men membership.

Pan-hellenic Meet to be Held May 10—Dark-Horses Are Expected
Now that track meets are all the rage the fraternities are going to take their annual trial on the enders. The Pan-hellenian track meet has been scheduled for Wednesday, May 10, on McCook Field. The entries closed last night for the Greeks but the eligibility committee of the council must approve the list before the entrants can be announced.
An unsuccessful attempt was made last fall to hold the annual Greek meet. Manager Hamilton had requested the Pan-hellenic council to arrange the meet in the first semester so that he might be able to discover some dormant track material among the students. The conditions. A day was set but at the last minute it had to be postponed until this spring.
The dope for the fall meet favored the Sigma Chis and Phi Psis. But now the dope has changed. Since that time Treweke, Woodbury, small and O'Lceary have competed in Varsity mets and consequently will be vulnerable for the fraternity. With the varsity team fraternity out for the Varsity team it will be hard to pick a winner for Wednesday. This will leave the meet to the work of dark horses. It is possible that some new material can be discovered for the regular track sound even this late in the year.
The fraternity meet will have some features not seen in the intercollegiate meets. Three-legged race, the obstacle race and a few others will be the added attractions. These will not help the Varsity squad to any great extent but it adds to the afternoon fun for the Greeks.

SUN SUPPORTS MISS LYNN
N. Y. Paper Criticizes Novelists' Choice of Heroes
A classroom lecture by Miss Margaret Lynn, of the University of Kansas, concerning the unfairness of writers for the press and of their fortunate facial characteristics, now has received the emphatic support of an editorial writer on the New York evening Sun, who wrote a satirical essay, "Square Chins and Dimplems."
"Painters and novelists have always believed fervently in signa," the Evening Sun says. "They simplify the work of character portrayal amazingly. It is (rue, not all the doctors agree. Some favor the 'cold blue eye,' some favor the 'sun' eye,' the large mouth be a sign of scarcity, and then again it may denote generosity.

The students are all familiar with the jinx which has been a source of trouble at K. U. since time immemorial. But at last a jinx breaker has been found in the form of a freshman.

Every game blair played the exeunt of the Nebraska foot-team and what person, mortal or immortal, can effect such demons) K. U. has won. But what is even more strange every game which he has not attended Kansas has lost. Indeed such a man in invaluable to the school.
To let: Two bungalows and one apartment house in the front and back yard at 1209 Ohio. Only wren need apply.
If such an "ad" could be inserted in the "Birdville Journal," the three little green bird houses, built by Prof. W. J. Baurgartner, of the department of zoology, in his yard would not go begging. The entrances are small in order that the bold sparrows may not enter and frighten away the nimid wrens. The most modern house, all of which are "upland trees" is the eight apartment building in the city. Each apartment is provided with a separate entrance and an individual porch, which may, of course, be used as a sleeping porch. Cherry trees nearby make the location of the houses especially desirable.

Students Study Mental Development of Children
The School of Education will be able to make valuable investigations concerning the reliability of modern tests and scales for measuring school work. All these investigations have become possible because all the children in the Parsons schools have been tested during this year by the Kettering Reading, F. J. Kelley, and F. J. Kelley of the School of Education, by the Ayrres test for spelling and hand writing by the Ballou scales for measuring composition, and by the Courtis tests for arithmetic. All of these tests and scales are provided by the Bureau of Educational Measurements and Standards of the State Normal School at Emporia, MO. Individual tests will be available by the School of Education to make comparative studies with results obtained by the intelligence tests, made by Prof. Raymond Schwegler and his three assistants.

By United Press Leaved Wife
Lansing, Mich., May 6. A conditional endorsement for a Republican Charles E. Holmes to represent republican presidential nomination in was prospect when Michigan republicans assembled in state convention here today. The movement for endorsement of the New York jurist sprang up unexpectedly and there was some hush that the plan may be turned over to another gathering. Opposition to the movement was expressed by some delegates who believed that the result of the Michigan presidential preference primary should be rigidly adhered to, and that Henry Ford should be given the chance to challenge Michigan debeleder on howover urged that Ford had publicly released all delegates and had asserted repeatedly that he was not a candidate.

The results of the track meet between Nebraska and Ames on the Ames cinders last week is furnishing quite a bit of dope for the Kansas tracksters. Although the races were run in the rain and on a wet day it gives the Jayhawkers a chance to see the huckleberries huskers will have to offer here Fremont give Kansas the advantage in all events except the deshes and Hamilton claims a good chance for his mer in these events.
Ames proved the better of the Cornhuskers in the distances. This is also the Jayahawkers' strong place and the meat will be one-sided as far as the race. The Ames won the two mile, one mile and half mile in rather slow time but was not a Nebraska man near enough to push the winners. Hawthorne of the Ames won the four-mile by running it in 4:38:2 in spite of the rain and heavy track.
Without Captain Frizzell to win some points in the jumps and hurdles, the Aggies defeated Baker Sat-day afternoon by a small score. The Aggies as usual showed up strong in the distances and most everything else. There was no unusual time made in any events but the Aggies did not show and it will be a safe bet that Kansas will not win from them on the outdoor track by a score as large as the indoor score, 66 to 19.
Scott of Nebraska is going like a cyclone in the dashes this year and is counted on for ten sure points by the Nebraskans this week. Davidson, Hilton and O'Leary will have to go some to beat him out.
Missouri is scheduled to meet the Chinese in a couple of games in Columbia this week. This will be a good chance for the coaches to get a line on the Jayhawkers' chances to stop the Tigers on-rush for Kansas took the Chinks to a one-point defeat in the second game here.
But the coaches have already had a chance to compare the two teams for the Ames squad has been defeated by both Missouri and Kansas this spring ahead of Iowa's pictures from the Ames squad but McCarty will have his men going at a top speed when they arrive in Columbus next week.
The Tigers are getting quite elated over their chances for a championship team this year. Ten straight games, seven wins and five losses have been taken by the Missourians.
The weather will have to release its hold on the K. U. tennis courts mighty quick if the dual match with Nebraska is to be held Friday. It has already prevented the team from practicing much and Captain Teacher has been unable to pick a partner for that reason.
Nebraska won their first dual tennis match a week ago when they defeated the Nebraska Wesleyan in the three matches played. Harry Ellis James Gardiner and Orville Chatt were the Cornhusher contestants and the same squad will play Kansas Friday.

Student Council Eligibility Committee Approves Candidacy Despite Late Petition
By United Press Leased Wire.
The report that Kenneth Gedney,
candidate for cheerleader against
Jake Lester would not be allowed to
run because he filleted his
filed late, was denied this morning
by Neal Ireland, chairman of the
eligibility committee of the Men's Student
Council.
"Gedney will be in the race and his name will appear on the official ballot," said Ireland. "Although by a technicality he should have been barred from the race because his petition was late, the Council decided to let him in the election inasmuch as in which petitions could be filed was incorrect as it appeared in the Kansan."
An election committee was appointed, last night, Neal Ireland, Edward Tanner and Ben Baltzer to look up the matter of eligibility of the various candidates. The grades will all be checked through the Dean's office, and every man will be checkd up on the point system, which was the same this time last year. This will be the case for the System has been put into actual operation, and there is some possibility that a few candidates will be caught.
Other candidates, however, are trembling at the prospect of being declared ineligible at the eleventh hour.
All deficiencies found by the election committee will be reported to the candidates themselves, and they will be given a reasonable time to straighten out their troubles or withdraw their candidacy.
Caucuses and speeches are being made every night and any hour of day now, and from appearances the race, especially for the presidency of the student council, will be close. The Hill is well plastered with posters, and coming out and being passed around in class, students see talking earnestly together are surely talking politics, for it is in the air.
The election for the college officers will be held in the basement of Fraser Hall, and separate ballots will be printed for them in order that the mayor vote. The polls will open at 8:30 a. m. and will close at 4:00 p. m.
Despite the fact that Billy, Sunday will be the big attraction tomorrow morning, and that the editors are taking up considerable of the time of the students on the side, one of the largest votes in the history of the council will probably be polled. There are two other offices, officees, which have no competition cheerleader, vice president of student council, secretary student council, member from the School of Pharmacy, athletic members to the athletic board, vice president of the college and vice president and secretary of theSchool of Engineering.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 4, 1916.
SUNDAY EXTOLS NEWSPAPERS
NEED FAIR RATE CARDS
That Is First Requisite For Central Bureau's Success, SaysMacLennan
THE PLAN IS A GOOD ONE
Will Bring Outside Business to Kansas Papers
At the dinner given at the University Club last evening in connection with the Central Newspaper Bureau the new organization headed by George Hough Perry, Mr. Frank P. McLeann, of the Topeka State Journal was asked by Merle Thorpe, pro-
spective of journalism, to take the place of Mr. Hough on the program. The latter had been a New York City in the interests of Business business, Mr. MacLeann was introduced by George W. Marble, of the Fort Scott Tribune, who presided at the linner, Mr. MacLeann said in part:
"Fortunately I was with Mr. Perry in New York City last week at the time of the Associated Press and newspaper Publishers' meetings covering the greater part of the week. Mr. Perry and I came to Kansas from New York City same train. He and I are in perfect accord about the policies and prospects of this bureau. We are both enthusiastic over it. I believe it is going to have a great effect upon the foreign perturbing sure to be placed in Kansas to support Mr. Perry. He is sure it will benefit us to your dailies. We are sure to get advertising that we would not otherwise have.
UNFAIR RATES
"Of course the Bureau is not yet in full working order, but he has offered you tonight through Mr. Thorpe the first business.
"Now if this league is to be a success, you must follow three rules. If you follow these you will get great results, and Mr. Perry will with be the try-out of the four months now. If you do not follow these rules the organization will be a failure and might just as well be disbanded.
"First: You must have a fair rate card and by fair, I mean one that is just to the both publisher into the patron, the most unfair rate that I know of is that of one of your members who told me this evening his paper has a circulation of 3,500 and who is taking advertising as low as 9c per inch. His lowest rate should be 20 cents.
"Second: Make the rate card simple, as nearly a flat rate as possible Do not compel the advertiser to use his knowledge of analytical geometry and calculus to ascertain just what 954 inches, for example, will cost him our paper. Give him an easy problem, that your rate is 10 cents an inch, then 954 inches would cost him $8.50, and there you are.
MUST NOT CUT PRICES
Third: Make your rate card rigid. This is absolutely essential. It will not be easy to show your lowest rate in paper, and then quote the advertiser a cut rate. That will demoralize the whole proposition, discredit Mr. Perry and prevent you from receiving the benefit which this organization will give you. You will follow these rules which may be summarized in this single sentence:
"We have a rate card based on these principles and I am just now exercising patience. We raised our rates on the Topoka State Journal, April 1, for $250. We have also raised on account of increased service, larger circulation and also because of the distressingly increasing high cost of all the material entering into the production of the daily news paper, whisky, paint and metals."
"Make your rate card fair, make it simple and stick to it. Then if you will have patience, for it takes time, you will get the business."
"Gentlemen, if your rate card is not right, now is the psychological moment to get it right. An advertiser will pay your rate if he is satisfied that it is fair, and convinced you will not cut the rate to his competitor in business. He wants to be on an even basis with his rival. You do not take your advertisers a square deal unless you treat them alike. You owe a stiff back-bone to yourself and your patrons, the advertisers."
"In Topeka we have had a successful campaign in advancing our rates. The new rate took effect April 1, and wonderful to relate, there are only advertisers who are holding out and have not come in under the new rate.
"One of these advertisers is an amusement magnate who has just brought suit for libel against me for the misuse of me through litigation and out of me through litigation and not."
ellor's Announcement
instructors may dismiss classes to attend the address of Chester S. Lord in Fraser chapel at 11:30 Friday. Mr. Lord was managing editor of the New York Sun for thirty-two years, a regent of the University of the State of New York. His address will be: "Journalism as a Profession."
"The second advertiser who has stayed out because of the advance in rate is one of the smaller advertisers. He has carrying a space of four inches on his phone and some symptoms that he will come in again in a few days at our new rate."
through liberal advertising. The question of rate is not to bish I must go home tomorrow to prepare my answer in the courts before May 12 and show why I should not pay him the $25,000.
WANTED A REDUCTION
"The third advertiser who has stayed out of the advertiser in Topeka. He is an enterprise chan, has a magnificent store and a fine trade, but he insists that we shall give him a lower rate than his competing department stores pay us; and his competitors have splendid desiences, one of them with more floor space, and others who have big fine stores and, I believe are entitled to just as low a rate as he is.
"On account of the change in our rate card, I am now arranging to conduct my affairs, exercise certain economies, possibly reduce the forces in the various departments, but I hope it will not be necessary; in other words, we can go for a newspaper business so we can go for advertising and conduct the state Journal at a profit without this big advertiser. We are now encouraging as many small advertisers as possible; trying to make up by the large number of small ads to big volume of advertising we have now is one big advertiser. The falling State Journal from this one advertisement amounted last month, assuming that he had taken the same space with us that he did in the other daily, (and he was using about the same space before the advance) would aggregate the Kansas daily press, we of the State Journal would no more think of giving him a lower rate than our minimum of 56 cents per inch, the same rate that other department stores are paying and realize a fair rate for the service in circulation and the quality of newspapers out, than we would think of abandoning other principles that we have, for commercial purposes.
"I may have to reduce our force may be driven to borrow money and as I also have some little differences with the bankers, I might have to go to Billy Money Hutchison or Governor Stubbs' bank in Lawrence, if I need more money in my business; but I will borrow the money before I will give this big store time." The managers of the older stores in Topeka.

EVANGELIST GETS ENTHUSIASTIC WELCOME FROM K. U.AUDIENCE
Billy and Ma Appear on Robinson Platform and Win Applause From Large Audience.
"My introduction by the Chancellor was the finest I have ever received at any school. There was no compromise in it. It was a clean cut statement for Christ."—Statement by Billy Sunday after the address.
It was a hurried and nervous Billy Sunday that ripped out the above statement as he tore into his clothes after his shower bath in the private office of Dr. James Naismith, physical director. Then followed closely by the ever watchful Ma Sunny he tried to饥饿 the women's dining room in the gym and hurriedly grabbed a head in cabbage. Taking a huge chunk he rapidly began to eat it. "like it," he gasped, between bites, while offering a piece to the newspaper men. "Take a bite," he offered.
Accompanied by Professor Thorpe the party slipped out of the side door of the gym and made for the Franklin ear which was waiting to take him back to Kansas City in time for his afternoon address in the metropolis. "Watch out for those moving picture men, "Pa," warned Ma Sunday as a suspicious looking box was turned in their direction.
(By Raymond Clapper).
With good-humored curiosity the University of Kansas met Billy Sunday this morning.
CHANCLER ORIGINAL WITH SUNDAY Chancellor Strong had just com- pleted an introduction which Mr. Sun- day characterized as the most beautiful straightforward and unreserved he had ever been given at a great university.
And Billy was good-natured about it too.
I got naked at it too.
He knew what the audience wanted and every once in a while he would shoot out a streak of his famous adjectives. Then the crowd would sit back and laugh and Billy would laugh too.
Sunday, could we?
BILLY LIKED THE ROCK CHALK
"Many here both among the faculty and among the student body hoped that Billy Sunday would come to the University," Chancellor Strong said in introducing the evangelist. "He is very welcome here his morning. I wish to say right here that I believe in revivals and in Billy Sunday bein five minutes he had the whole audience singing vigorously.
Sunday couldn't leave his religion in Kansas City today. He came to the University to talk about newspapers, and be brought a carefully prepared manuscript along, but time after time as he grew earnest over the newspaper's power for good, he fell into his more familiar field and preached the whiskey business into a corner. Then he would suddenly come back to his manuscript and resume his subject.
When Mr. Sunday started to talk he was hoarse and throughout his thirty-five minute speech he continued in a high strained tone and appeared to speak with great effort. Perspiration flowed continuously.
"I'm not going to preach to you, so disabuse your minds," Billy Sunday announced as he stepped up to the pulpit.
BILLY LIKED THE ROCK CHALK
As soon as Mr. Sunny jumped up on me in the Gymnasium, he saw that he had a college audience and he broke into her yay laugh. The audience which packed a back of floor space replied with a touring Rock Chalk. After it was over Billy turned to Ma Sunday.
"That's some Jayhawk," and he wavied to the audience.
Then Homer, A. Rodeheaver, musical director for Mr. Rose, Sunday to lead the singing. He felt right at home. "I was once yeller leader at Ohio University," he said, "and that Rock Chalk sure did sound fine."
He then taught the famous Sunday revival song, "Brighten the Corner Where You Are," to his K. U. instrument, to it, to the trombone and then singing it. Then he asked the audience to sing it and repeated the words:
Brighten the corner where you are,
Brighten the corner where you are,
You may guide across the bar,
Brighten the corner where you are.
Sunday appeared tired and the lines of worry on his face were rather prominent. He wore a dark pin-tail coat and the new patent leather oxfords.
PARKED NERVOUS
But the audience made a poor trial and Mr. Rodeheaver them and other chance. About thirty minutes this time. In desperation he turned to the editors and asked them to sing the chorus.
At this time sun, sky was walking around on the platform, nervously awaiting the end of the ten-minute song service. He grasped the pulpit tug to see if it were given it a hard hug to see if it were given it a hard Hug he appeared restless and eager to get to talking. He worked his lips during the singing evidently following the small black leather book in which he carried his manuscript.
Not a sound.
"Well, where's Henry Allen, he
coupling it all right," he raved.
he laughed.
cause he believes in One who speaks with authority and in this time of world crisis it is well to remember that there is only One who speaks with authority."
Then as the tremendous applause started up, Billy broke into a wide smile and grasped the sides of the pulpit tightly. During the entire adoration, he barely left his position in front of the teacher; he went around in front of it several times so that he could gesture more freely and could get closer to his hearers.
"Come on, you traducers; come on you triple extract of infamy; come on you assassins of character; come on, you defenders of God and enemies of the Church; come on you bullnucked beetle-browed, goat-jowled, peanut-attracted, induced four flushes, false alarms and excess baggage." That is a sample.
GIVES K. U. A SAMPLE
He started out to speak to the Kansas edithers but he could not stay very far from her, closest to his heart and time after time in his manuscript and jumped into one of his scathing attacks on liquor.
His audience took such passage with a pleasant-humored curiosity and applauded loudly while Billy sent back laughing and watching them. Then he would begin to talk about the pain before and before anyone knew it he would crouchling down in front of the pulpit straining every muscle, biting off his sharp words about the whiskey ring again. And the crowd would laugh again and applause. It was the time they wanted to see. And they did—in flushes when he forgot he was making a newspaper address.
He showed familiarity with the words of the great figures of literature including Tennyson, Emerson, Homer, Vergil, Socrates and Lincoln.
LAUDED GALILEO AND JENNER
Sunday surprised his audience by lauding the work of Galileo and Jenner, two great scientists and showed contributions to knowledge and to their firmness in the face of opposition.
"But all these cannot take the press of Jesus Christ," he cautioned, "and they were, others as wonderful will follow them. But there is only one Christ."
WANDED THE BURK CHALK AGAIN
bringing this brief passage, a bang that is this list on the pulpit and laughing applause. And Sunday would laugh too.
Then the crowd would laugh at Sunday.
WANTED THE ROCK CHALK AGAIN
When he had finished and the audience was about to go Billy stood 'ip.
"Let's have that Jawhack again," and he followed it with his lips and laughed.
Chancellor Strong was about to dismiss the meeting when Billy jumped
"Wait a minute, Chancellor," he said. "I want Ma to talk." So Mrs.
Sunday stood up while Billy introduced her to K. U.
"The first time I ever was in kansas was on our honeycomber and Billy was on the rabbits most of the time and I made sure we send back to our friends in Illinois."
As she finished Billy, who had slipped into his overcoat after he finished speaking wavet at the crowd and hurried out.
The following extracts from Mr. Sundy's speech are taken from the estenographic report:
The Talk in Detail
I am not going to preach to you, so just disburse your mind now about that if you are worrying about it.
I am always at home with the newspaper men, because I have mixed with them ever since I have played base ball. I think the greatest single agency for good in the world is the newspaper. I think I know newmen men. I have had them with me even three years. They camp on my trail. They watch me when I sleep. They talk about the kind of clothes I wear, and about the color of my neckties. They talk about whether I like my beef steak or well done. And I like him. I have never been afraid to trust a newspaper that it is true that sometimes a newspaper is clearly opposed to my work in fighting the whisky key bun; but since I gave it to Jesus Christ, I have asked no quarter. And what's more, I expect to fight until hell freezes over, and then I'll buy a pair of skates and tackle them on the ice. And I can testify that when an editor has it in his hive on the chair him up, hang his hive on the chair him up, salt it down while the other stays on his knife blade and getting ready for the operation. I could hardly carry on a campaign without the newspapers, and they are the most important factor for good in any community that I know of.
Of course there is such a thing as a mediated editor, as a press announcer, or a riff-affriff of society; but all people are able to discriminate between that type of a newspaper with that type of paper and the paper with high, lofty ideals.
TALKS SHOP FOR EDITIONS
Among the great newspapers of New York are the Heart papers, and my favorite Arthur Brisbane, in my estimation, the most authoritative editor writer in the United States, know anybody in the world who has a marvelous amount of good. By the way, I am the father-in-law to the newspaper profession. Our only daughter is the wife of a country editor in Michigan. And I really know a lot about it. I know the difference between a three cm type and a card of the same dimensions. And I know a lot about the high calling and the responsibilities that lie within the grasp and reach of the editor, I know what a force the editors of Kansas, since the early settlement days, build up this West, and the editor with his shirt tail full of type was no less a factor in building the community than the sky pilot. Oh, how fortunate it was for Kansas that its newspapers were men were with high intelligence only that, but the newspapers of Kansas fit the best advertised state in the Union. Whenever president Wilson wants to know what the West thinks about his preparedness propganda, he outspread the Kansas papers, Rosenett always推拿 to Kansas to touch off the promise to or to the front door of Kansas, which is Kansas City.
PAIRES KANSAS NEWSPAPER
I know the West. I am of the West.
I know the Kansas spirit, which was wait up by the early editors and who you men of today are still keeping me alive. I said. I am of the West, and I like it. When I come west I stretch out to my full length and take a full breath of the thaw that blows over her fertile valleys. I like to have a man come up to me and say, "Why, hello, Bill! Gosh! I'm glad to see you."
And I have learned that Kansas is the best illiterate state in the Union. The illiteracy of Kansas is only 23; that of Maine is 4.4; of Massachusetts, 5.5; and of the whole United States, 70.1. The definition of illiteracy is ignorance, not discrimination or ignorance slink away like a wolf to a lion den and hide itself. You are right up to the minute, and I think it is because you have so many good newspapers. There are more news articles read in Kansas in proportion to its population than any other state in the Union. Kansas, half the population of Massachusetts, has 163 more newspapers than that state.
And Kansas honors her newspaper men. She ought to, for my friend Governor Capper is a good example, and he is thirty-six inches to the yard, all wool, true blue and one hundred cents to the dollar.
PREACHES KANSA AND EAST
Oh, what a debt, my friends, we owe to the old editors of the old days. It is over that they had to take their subscriptions and crops, but they still treasure their principles. Those old war horses are all gone now, but their souls like John Brown's body, go marcheing on. And continuing in the spirit of those editors, the editors of today have brought justice to the state. They have made sure the prohibition, and if I loved Kansas for nothing else, I would love her for that. Ever since I gave my heart to sons and began to do his work, my wife has been to fight for temperance. I have heard the glory of Kansas to millions and of people who have never crossed the borders of your State; and until the embalmer pumps my body full of embling fluid, and the chorus sings "I'm Light." I will continue to fight for justice to the work that you have accomplished. The line is the crowning glory, the laurel wreath upon the bow of your glorious state.
I am told that there is not a newspaper in the state that will run a whiskey or beer advertisement. One by one the great newspapers of the country are cutting out the whiskey ads. Among these are the Kansas Star, the Philadelphia North-American, the Pittsburgh Gazette Times. And I understand that there is a law in Alabama that prohibits any newspaper from crossing the borders of the state that carry a whiskey ad.
I think the newspaper is one of the greatest moral forces in the world. Whenever an individual wants to decoy, he depends upon the net effect that keeps him up and fight for his principles. There is a principle involved, believe me there has got to be some fighting done. Columbus said, "I can sail and get west." The people said he was wrong; he pippet, he was buhoghe. But he stuck to his principal, and today they are naming cities for Columbus.
Dr. Jenner said that eight out of ten people died of small pox. Of course if they'd take a bath once in a while, the percentage wouldn't be large. But Jenner said, "I have made mistakes," the use of which will reduce this chance. The people hooted him, ridiculed him, pelled him from society. And today they take off their hats to Dr. Tennison said, "He never made a decision when he never made a foe." Emerson said he will not worry what concerns me, not what people I must do." There never was a victory won that did not notice suffering.
NEWSPAPERS CAN COMPEL DECENCY
The newspaper can clean up any
computer on God's dirt. It can force
a mayor to remove the saloons; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can force
the saloons to close; it can forc
dirt, rotten liquor that makes hogs
of men. It can compel decency.
I do not believe there is a single evil
doctrine that must stand an honest, well
sustained, rightous attack of an honest
newspaper. It cannot patent
the 42 centimeters of the potent
murder, or the 75's of the French.
Any business that depends upon vice to succeed, the sooner that business is in hell, the better. Some editors are mere pawns on the chess board of the dirty, low-dow, rotten, swill-gutted whisky bunch.
I believe that laws enforced means public sentiment and hard work. Lawless means that the public has taken the devil's opiates and gone to sleep.
Character decides everything, from the size of a brick to the personnel of an army. Everybody will follow the man best qualified to lead. This magnificent country of ours took its character, I am glad to say, from the Pilgrim Fathers, who landed on that rough, rocky New England shore with a Bible in one hand and a spelling book in the other.
NEWSPAPER A FRIEND OF LIBERTY Ever since it was instituted, as a general thing the newspaper has proven itself the friend of liberty; and thus became the plaything of a dirty, rotten bunch, and has become influenced by greed and crime, it is a menace to a community. I think you might try to sink a battleship with a shot gun, expect money to speak and bear children, or try to dam Niagara Falls with toothpies, as to overthrow an honest newspaper. It is the most poignant for righteousness that I know of the pulpit—and God knows it has so scandalic beat a block, judging from the bumped up against. If every news paper in the country was repressed tomorrow, crime would increase 100 per cent in twenty-four hours.

TO SIMPLIFY SPELLING
Minnesota Professor Pleads For "Harmony Between Sound and Symbol"
SAYS REFORM MUST COME
Calls Present Spelling Wrong, False, and Foolish
The following plea for simpimine spelling by Prof. Jean Sherwool Ran-appears the University of Minnesota appears an important issue of the "Minnesota Daily";
If one has a long and arduous climb to make, should he not seek the easterly side. The hill of learning is extremely steep; the climb can needle hardly! Some of us, who began the climb long ago, have reached a point where we think we will advantageously leave the beaten path. May I point this way out to you?
Throughout your life as students you have used and you must continue to use the device known as English spelling. This, as at first conceived, was a system of matching sound to the invention of confusion that followed the invention of less inconsistencies came into use after thru carelessness and oftener thru ignorance. This led to a great desire on the part of printers for uniformity and for authority. Thus the standardization of spelling, as Dr. Stratton said, about by printers, not by schools, and was obtained at the expense of "propriety, of etymology, of principle of orthopey." The true nature of this standardization should be fully recognized now. Johnson's Dictionary, published in 1755, was generally used in印刷 with neither consistency nor reason, and became the standard. This has been followed until the present day.

AND LET THE POOR DEVILS AT LANSING HAVE A REST
In the gradual march of time and of lexicographicographers, Noah Webster commands great honor, for he was a pronounced spelling reformer, going as far as he dared in the matter. Opuscula is the word of his instead of giving us b-r-e-d, d-a-w-t-e-r, k-o-u-r-s, and the like, he felt obliged to retain the monstrousities b-u-l-i- t, b-r-e-a-d, d-a-u-g-h-e-r-e, c-h-o-r-u-s, and so on. He did, however change e-to e-to r in a long list of words, and he omitted that u so dear to British and to would-be Brits in words likeWebster fully mirrors him, but is finally suspected by the average student—that the accepted spelling of English words more often disguises the etymology that conserves it.
Having now wasted two years of your young lives in mastering the permutations and combinations of twenty-six letters and forty sounds, will you not at least make an intelligent effort to save those who come after you from a like fate? In our language, we speak of spoken language, the e in meaning symbols, the a in matter has thirty-four, the a in fall has twenty-one, the e in met has thirty-six, and so on. Think of the millions of emigrants coming to our shores and doomed to learn English thus a vehicle! Think of your own children who will come after you! Remember that the spoken word always precedes the written, and that the first and only sound that comes is convey to the mind as accurately as may be the corresponding vocal utterance! Ask yourselfs what proportion of English words do this!
The air is full of revolt and upheaval. A new spirit of the times is struggling for birth. In the general chaos that has fallen over the world since World War II, a fortune for a new honesty in the very elements of knowledge. Is our spelling honest? No; it is a hypocritical sham of the worst sort. It has neither logic, nor reason, nor rule, nor history to defend it. It persists only because it lacks moral indolence, the sentimentality, or the financial interest of those who use it.
No small group of scholars, however eminent, can hope to accomplish any great reform unadvised. Indeed not only unaided are they, but even bitterly opposed by the vast horde of avaricious bookmen, he has written the text-books of the schools. Let simplified spelling be once demanded by the public, and much of the big business of the schools will be done away with. There
It is only from a rising generation as professor Loussain says (see Atantic, May, 1907), that we may expect threo-government reform in any迪亚特省, and that he says, "in whom the reasoning powers have not been so blunted by association that the mind looks with favor upon what is defiant of reason!" Will you continue to be thus "defiant of reason"? Need I remind you that every living editor of a dictionary—and a book—is a member of the Simplified Spelling Board? Will you consult the Standard, the Webster's, the Century, the great new English dictionary, and then you will defy and set at naught all that the editors of these very dictionaries stand for? they have no reason to use it; they must use it not make it. Will you not hasten to join the company of these scholars and to stand with them among the elect?
Let's Try It On the Geology Class First.
will be no more need for spelling books, which are now regularly used by all graded schools. There will be two years' less of schooling for the average child as result, and there will far-reaching reforms affect every student. One knows this so well as the great American Book Trust, which controls and operates scores of concerns generally supposed to be independent. A mortal blow would be given the all-important book-houses when the public wakes up in the case. At present, and from time immemorial, the book houses have been the deciding factor in everything related to the schools. But are you going to continue to have the matters academic uttered by the teachers in books? Do you not prefer the authority of the group of scholars aforesaid? However, even among publishers there are noble exceptions, and the name of Henry Holt stands preface to the stand he has taken on this question. No wonder he calls his unique magazine "The Unipopular Review"!!
I appeal to the youth, the courage the enthusiasm of our students to take up this mighty reform and make it a success. In this work you must not expect much help, if any, from teachers. They, alas, have perhaps mastered their craft matter thoroly from its historical side. Some of them assuredly have long been giving you a champagne course of instruction upon a beer income, and the discrepancy involves has kept them over-busy. Then be marked they down to lead them into the light. It is impossible that some of them, in their blind idolatry of the unknown, have marked you down for ot spelling in the current fashion. But you probably spelled much better than they knew, and such grotesque abuse of the language always be tolerated in supposed leaders of "thought"? For one thing is as certain as daylight: If they investigate, they will be with you heart and soul. Mind, I do not say that they will themselves adopt simplified forms, to be too indolent, or may be in the grip of publishers and unable to do as they prefer.
I humbly apologize for my spelling in this letter, and confess to proper shame therefor. I do not spell as well as I know! For I have an eye-minded memory, whereby association has fixed the bad spellings laboriously in my youth, and now it reproduces them in my life, not deny that said memory is a convenience, especially since education puts to sleep as far as possible the logical faculties. Even so likewise does our lovable Dr. Burton, himself a member of the Simplified Spelling Board. But Dr. Burton's publishers dead, were he to insist on spelling out errors, instead of according to the fashion. Even so also does our scholarly Dr. Klaeber, who would gladly see the English of his adopted country as fonetically spelled as is the scientific German of his fatherland. Yet, happily, there are a few logical minds which refuse to respect any authority about truth and reason. Therefore we find biology and orthography treated from the same viewpoint by at least one of our professors, to whom we give honor. Henry F. Nachtrieb not
only dares be a spelling-reformer, but his practices are in harmony. There may be others among us of whom this is true, but I am not so fortunate as you unknowed of them. To all such, the unkown, 1 yield admiration and respect.
But how, you ask, shall you see about a reform that approximates a revolution, since it entails a period of confusion which will perhaps be form a league, which shall be at first held then interlacerate, then national, then international. Let there be no more need of such books as "Two Thousand Words Most Often Missed. Let the book agents walk, while you go to their own auto-cars! Let the little children our sue education gladly, because unharmed by the mistakes of ignorant printers long since dead! Shall France dare to alter ten thousand dare to at a stroke, and shall we fear to lose our souls which are recommended to us by our most eminent scholars? Take away from the fair face of our English this weepful blemish, and thus leave it free to work its high mission in the world. From theatroic spelling it will specially become what it is surely destined to be—the language of the world!
I am yours for the right, true, and sensible, as against the wrong, false, and foolish, whether in the world of morals or in that of letters. But I fancy that the two worlds interpenetrate, and that sham in the one can never be less than sham in the other. I cannot but admire the glory of harmony between sound and symbol of the beauty of truth, and of the simplicity which marks all that is truly great. Reform must come, soon or late. Why not now, and thy you?
FISKE LETTER TO SENATE
Utterances Due to Malice and Wounded Vanity—Tillman

Washington, May 3.—Characterizing actions of Rear Admiral Fiske in criticizing Secretary of the Navy Daniels as a kind of "sniping or guerilla warfare" Congressman Tillman of military affairs committee today submitted a copy of Fiske's letter received by Vice-president Marshall.
"It is easy to show from official records how unreasonable and unjustifiable too. Admiral Fiske's utterances the Navy has nothing to do with the Secretary of courts an investigation if one is demanded. Therefore I content myself with asking that Fiske's letter to the Vice-president be published in the recorder." The officer really is to his utterances excent malice and wounded vanity."

J. Pluvius And His Assistants Interfere With Annual Intramural Event
Mr. K, U. Man—The well dressed man was tailored to measure clothes.
DAY SET FOR MONDAY
Delayed Date Will Allow Athletes to Get in Condition
J. Pluvius, assisted by the rest of the disagreeable elements that hang around the weather man's headquarters, got to McCook Field yesterday afternoon before the athletes and sprinters needed to be succeeded to make things miserable on the track for the thinly clad runners and the annual spring interclass track meet had to be postponed until a later date. Manager Hamilton announced this week that the intramural affair would be held Monday after rain or shine.
All classes are rejoicing at the postponement of the meet. Now that the meet is to be held Monday the seniors and sophomores will be able to use Captain Rebe and Richard Trevino. These two men have not yet returned, but Penn Games but are expected in Lawrence before the last of the week.
The juniors are rejoicing because it will give their star, Fred Rodkey, a longer period of time in which to recuperate from the weak arch which he has been nursing since the indoor dual meet with Missouri. The freshmen are also happy that the affair has been postponed because they will have to get back to school to get in shape for the events. The freshmen have not be ten training regularly and have not rounded into shape very well up to the present time.
The juniors had been doped as winners for the meet yesterday but now that it is postponed the dope may take on a little different aspect before Monday. Trewecke can be counted on for five points in both the high and broad jumps and for a place or two in the long jump. Trewecke will win places in both the weights and will probably annex ten senior points in these events.

Our own Teddy would never have been known as a good hunter had it not been for the publicity he received in American newspapers. Of course, he didn't have to pay for the space, but he had nothing to gain but reputation.
You may have been kidding yourself along for quite a while, cussing the best friend you have in the world, the advertising man from the paper, hollering about the H. C. of L. and the big overhead and the cheapness of the customers, but you know that you believe in printer's ink.

HUSKERS PLAY TENNIS QUIZ SCHEDULE OUT
Dual Match With Nebraska or McCook Courts Tomorrow Morning
Morning
The Nebraska tennis squad of three men is due to arrive in Lawrence tonight for the dual match with Kansas tomorrow. Harry Ellis, James Gardiner, and Orville Chatt are the three Cornhuskers who will attempt to show Dix Teachener and his partner how to play tennis.
The big match starts at 10:30 to tomorrow morning on the two northwest courts at McCook Field. A fourth court, the two courts in fine condition and they will be chosen. The Kansas captain With a little warmer weather added now by the weatherman the contestant will show some real form on the courts.
The Kansas team has not been chosen yet. A final practice will be held this afternoon at which time a partner for Captain Dix Teacamer will be chosen. The Kansas captain has been the only dependable man on the Missouri State team in competition three years ago. His work has been noticed all over the Missouri Valley and his recent choice as the best man in the K. C. A. C for the summer tournaments was approved by everyone. He has entered all the big tournaments in Kansas City for the last few years but would rather stay under the blue diamond colors until his eligibility at K. U expired.
At the same time as the Nebraska dual match the annual high school tennis tournament will start on the remaining tennis courts near McCoole Field. This will be the only tournament held this year on the Kansas courts and the entry list is the largest of years. The Kansas City high school graduate trophy honors in this tournament and this year will be no exception, at least if interest and entries have anything to do with it.
The Nebraska dual match and the high school will both be free to the public and will no doubt attract a large crowd of spectators. Seats will be provided for spectators as far as possible.

SCHOOL IS 3:0 YEARS OLD
Ball Game in Afternoon; Banquet For Old Grads at Night
"Daddy Sayre Day" will be celebrated for the first time by the professors and the students of the School of Pharmacy next Tuesday, May 9, in honor of their dean, L. E. Sayre, celebrated in honor of Dean Sayre but not in commemoration of the thirtieth anniversary of the school.
A banquet will be given at 8 o'clock in the evening at the Eldridge house. A number of graduates are expected to be present. Two graduates, Charles C. Cramer, '12, of Gardner and Bruce Killian, '12, of Olathe, have said that they would attend the banquet. They did not believe never took his degree until this year. Short after-dinner talks will be given by professors and students.
In the afternoon a baseball game in which the juniors cross bats with the seniors will be held. A spirit of hostility already exists between the two classes in regard to the outcome of the contest.
The students of the School of Pharmacy expect to make "Daddy Sayre Day" an annual event. Under the leadership of Dean Sayre, its first professor, the school has passed through a period of stress and strain, of pioneering, of sacrifice, of small beginnings, yet he has learned what is most of the frontiers, and proved its worth. Its alumni numbers into the thousands and many of them have achieved not only state but national reputation.

The Government Military Camp will be under the direction of regular United States officers of the army. The purpose of the camp is to teach each attendant as much of the fun activities as possible, commissioned officer, and an officer as can be imparted in the duration of the camp.
To become a member of a Military Camp, the applicant must be a citizen of the United States, must be between 18 and 40 years old, sound physical condition, able to stand the knocks and hardships of camp life, and he must have a college or high school education. He must also bear military burden in the community where he lives.

The LINOGRAPH
TENGERAYZL
The Linograph will do anything that can profitably be done on any slugecasting machine. It has desirable features that are not to be found on any other machine. It is so simply constructed that the uninitiated very easily and quickly master the mechanical details required to operate it successfully. The Linograph is the embodiment of mechanical simplicity—and, as all know, mechanical simplicity is the goal for which every efficiency engineer is striving these days.
The Linograph has come to this meeting to make its initial bow to the publishers and printers of Kansas. It is here to "talk" for itself. It has no apologies to offer, nor criticisms to make. It is content to be judged by its performance, past and present. Its future is positively assured. Concisely stated, the Linograph is a dominating factor in the slugcasting machine field, now and in the future.
The Linograph embodies features which—comparatively—make it the least expensive to install, the least expensive to maintain, and the easiest to handle. It is suitable for the largest office as well as the smallest. It is running in job offices, and in daily and weekly newspaper offices, side by side with machines of other makes, and in each instance has the earnest commendation of owner and operator.
The Linograph purchasers have not, and will not, suffer the experience of seeing their machines depreciate in market value overnight, because of a startling reduction in price. They deserve fair play—and they'll get it.
There are many other reasons why YOU should install a Linograph. Ask the man who demonstrates the machine.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the students of University of Kansas to go further than merely printing the text on the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to beacious; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to learn and to satisfy the students of the University.

SUNDAY MADE FRIENDS

Billy Sunday has come and gone and the University of Kansas has given him its unqualified indorsement. The usual Sunday emotionalism was not overdone and the immense crowd heard nothing that could have been considered offensive. The usual Sunday hyperbole was toned down to suit the occasion, and the usual Sunday acrobatics were less sensational than when the evangelist gets deep in a sermon. The address to Kansas newspaperman showed that Mr. Sunday is a scholar and in touch with the vital questions of the day. This morning the baseball preacher made 3,000 friends, all of whom would like to see him come again.
THE 1916 JAYHAWKER
The 1916 Jayhawk, the Senior Annual, was distributed this morning Each year, before the books are printed, the staff members make their brags of getting out the biggest, the best, the handsomest book that has ever yet been printed. Their enthusiasm is usually discounted 50 per cent so the book may be taken at its real value.
But the Jayhawer distributed this morning really is above the ordinary degree of mediocrity. The three color work, the quality of the engraving, the general appearance of the book, is far above the average annual produced. Even though the war was able to hold the annual back two whole days, it evidently did not hurt the book's quality in the slightest degree.
The Jayhawker management and editorial staff is proud of its efforts. The University, too, may well feel a bit vain over the 1916 year book.
Congress is passing an immense number of bills. The average stude is passing up an immense number.
The question of "What is a man's services worth?" often arises. Each senior is asking himself that question as he prepares to leave the University. Each of us has a certain figure which we ought to be able to earn. But there is no way of making a definite rule to apply to anything so uncertain as our earning capacity. Money is a most imperfect standard to measure one's worth to his employer or to the community. Some of the greatest men in the history of the world, the men who have left their stamp upon the world's civilization, were the poorest of the poor during their life time.
MEASURING ONE'S SERVICES
Christ's services were rendered without thought of return, either from the community or from those who heard him preach. Yet the stamp of his work has changed the whole world. Mohamet's life was in danger, for the
work he did among his Arabian followers, and yet it has changed the life of the whole Ottoman race.
Bobbie Burns, Goldsmith, Edgar Allen Poe, were scarcely able to earn enough to eat during their lifetime, yet their work has lived after them, and is now recognized at its full worth. But their services were not considered as worth much of anything during their lifetime.
The world pays tribute to Charlie Chaplin's services at the rate of $650, 000 annually. Jess Willard receives thousands for a couple of hours batting of a pugilistic antagonist Mary Pickford, Geraldine Farrar, Billy Burke, Mme. Schumann Heink, all earn more than the president of the United States. Does it follow that they are of more worth to the country? Will the artist Blakelock, who sold paintings for a few paltry dollars, that are worth thousands today, be remembered longer, and receive a homage which will ever compensate him for those weary years in which he painted and painted, and found no buyers? The public is a fickle jade.
So when our efforts are not appreciated, and it looks as though we are not receiving our just dues, we may look back over the world's history, and find that few, very few, were rewarded to the full measure of their services.

In the battle array it will be New York against the rest of the nation—for New York club women have in mind that they do not know how to dress.
The word went out in the last issue of the magazine of the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Miss Mary A Peek, "at New York," wrote how to dress. The first signs of revolt came from Indiana but now women from San Francisco to New Jersey and from Canada to the gulf are reported to have taken decided exception on Friday. The exception, "Big Town" on clothes for the coming federation convention.
It will be a finish bait, unless the New Yorkers retire, as they have indications of doing today. The leading club women would not be quoted.

"Many delegates do not know that New York women wear only strictly tailored suits, on the streets or at business and little or no jewelry. Their suits are usually black in color. Women of the southland who choose light colors for their spring suits may wear their winter ones, since New York is always cool. These with good skin and comfortable shoes will love them ready to enjoy and get inspiration from the May biennial. It is also advisable to select small hats. Well dressed women avoid the larger ones."

Shostac of the department of English, will be presented at the varsity as a part of their annual May celebration on the evenings of May 12, 13 and 15. As a setting for the play, Prof. Arthur Nevin of the dean of the College will complete score of incidental music.
The performance will be unique in the history of dramatics in more than one way. Seldom is the author of a play and the composer of its incidental music, both seen taking part in their production. Ye Percy Shaston played Mr. Warner in the parts and Prof. Arthur Nevin will conduct the orchestra.
"The Stuff of Laughter" is a new form of drama. The Russian Ballet was a synthesis of dancing, music, design and lighting effects. By adding intense dramatic action to the ballet, it still maintains its dramatic and artistic unity, this play goes one step farther than the Russian Ballet.
The play is divided into two main parts, preceded by a prologue and followed by an epilogue. The prologue consists of an invitation by the Spirit of the Stage to witness the play. The first part of the play is in the court of the King of Jealousy bringing the foolishness of allways allwarness, bitterness, unrelenting cruelty of the time as well as the strange and tragic wistfulness of the north. The action is gripping in its terrible cruelty and melodrama.

That the Kansas Editorial Association is behind Professor Thorpe in his advocacy of the Central Advertising Bureau for Kansas Newspapers, is published by the members by the Recording Secretary, H. C. Sticher, which follows;
"The Kansas Editorial Association should investigate thoroughly the Kansas Central Advertising Bureau plan as advocated by Prof. Merle Thorpe of the department of journalism. The centralizing effort of the bureau of this kind will bring thousands of dollars to Kansas editors, National advertisers will use the Kansas newspapers if they can do so without bringing to themselves the grief of handling a hundred and one accounts. It is important that they attend. Newspaper Week and the State Editorial Association convention talk to Mr. George Hough Perry about the Central Bureau plan."

Mr. Kansas Editor:
Switch over to the main line. If you have talked loyalty to the home community till you are black in the face and have not noticed results, talk a little about quality and price.

ENGINEERS UTILIZE ANCESTOR OF LAWRENCE STREET CARS
Considerable comment was caused by the ancient-appearing omibus which the engineers incorporated into their parade Friday. The old carry-all is a rule of an early chapter, and all the officers it issued Elwell who used to drive it from the Eldridge hotel, says that he has no idea how old it is. It was an old timer when he came to Lawrence and that was some time ago. He remembers that the old bus was run by him, but had to be junked several years ago. It was left standing on a vacant spot north of the Sante Fe depot where it remained until the engineers dragged it forth, rusty and reluctant, from its resting place. They took it up behold Five miles away. Their curiosity of many people who wanted to know what it was and where it came from.

BRISBANE TO EDITORS
Tells Them That Their Mission Is To Make The People Think
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 5, 1916.
ADVJSES COUNTRY FIELD
Hearest's Writer Urges Rural Journalism for Beginners
Journalism is a profession which aims at making people think, the masses, intellectual, medico-religious, militants, intellectual effort, and educates.
This is the gist of statements made by Arthur Brisbane, editor of the New York Journal, and Chester S. Lord, formerly editor of the *Journal*. In Braser chap this morning on aims of the profession of journalism.
WORKED FOR CHESREER LORD
"The greatest thing in journalism is to make people think," said Arthur Brisbane.
Mr. Brisbane related his first experience in journalism, reciting the incidents in his early career which he began at 21 as London correspondent for the New York Sun, working under Chelsea Ferguson and Sun. He became editor at 23 and has held this position since on many of the Hearst publications.
NUMBER 146.
"The police force, the real police force of this country, is the country newspaper editor such as we have represented here today. For the young men and women in the department journalism here at the University of Kansas the country field is your opportunity. The city is not the place for graduates from our chools of journalism. To rise, to get out of the mediocre class of journalists in the city is rarely the lot of the young man or woman under your guidance. The chances are no there and those who do succeed are very few.
AUST GIVE PEOPLE SOMETHING
"I hope that you boys and girls staring out will go to the country and see where it is, because country editors are gathered here."
"The world is like a house. Every time that you are received at the home of a friend you brighten that home, add something to it atmosphere. You can receive it. You add something to it. Every student here can add something to the world, can gain something from this moment on and begin to expand. You can not gain from the world, unless you give it. It will be difficult for you to epiphrate and give you something if it must gain from you.
"To make people think is the greatest thing is journalism. That is the editor's mission,—to make people think, and he has the mouthpiece for doing the most good, the country press."
"While at the University of Missouri yesterday a student came to the station to ask me two questions, why was he wearing green and greatest thing is journalism. I answered the first question by telling him that New York was only a drop in the sea of the United States and each of its drops, I came to learn.
An inch of space in the country paper is worth more in many cases to the advertiser than an inch in the New York Journal. Mr. Brisbane told the editors. The advertiser told them which country which all the population of the country by talking to them through one man whom they all know, the country publisher.
GOTCH QUITS THE MAT
Wrestling Champion, Broken Hearted, Bids Public Adieu
Chiego, May 4.—Frank Gotch, champion wrestler was through with the mat game today. Broken in health and only a shadow of his former self, Gotch has uitq the circus with which he and Jess Willard were travelling and has gone to his farm at Humboldt, Ia.
From 225 pounds he says he has dropped weight rapidly and now weighs only 185 pounds. Gotch made it certain yesterday that he would not meet Joe Stecher, the Dodge, Neb. aspirant for the title.
U. T. Warren, editor of the Dodge City Journal, says, "Newspaper gatherings of this kind are of wonderful interest to the editors throughout the state. A man will get a hundred new ideas before he leaves and he can see for himself what he wants." He gets a line on the latest equipment and then besides this, the whole thing is a pleasant change and the best kind of a vacation."
Students who had eight-thirty classes which ran full time had little opportunity to get seats, for at 9:20 when the whistle blew every available seat was taken and over a hundred were standing.
Want Rooms for Athletes
On account of the shortage of rooms during the editors convention Manager Hamilton is having trouble in finding rooms for the accommodation of the 250 high school athletes who start in the meet here Saturday, and in rooms for the visitors are requested to call manager Hamilton, Bell Phone K. U. 82.
CARRANZA, U. S. AGREE
Mexican Chief Accepts Proposals of Scott-Obregon, Avers Private Secretary
Mexico City, May 5—Carranza has accepted the United States proposals "in principle" as they were outlined at the Scott-Oregon conference, it announced by Carranza's secretary of state. The reference reached a satisfactory solution regarding the presence of American troops in Chihuahua, Mexico.
PRESS CLUB MAKES HIT
Topekans Surprise Editors With Reproduction of K. U. Class In Journalism
A neutralized Dutch-Treat supper was "reported, edited, and distributed by the staff of the University Daily Kansan" Thursday night at 6:30; for the visiting editors and their wives, ? will p@ Thorpe and charge of the he given to the dinner, and Guy which, and Marjorie Richard were up withitters.
About 250 were served, four at a table. The tables were arranged on the floor of Robinson Gym. Besides him, for the University band and that of the Glee Club the guests derived much entertainment from reading the aprons of the waiters. Each apron had an image of the Kansan printed upon it.
After the dinner the Topека Press Club gave a farce, "Great Political Traveyst, Armageddon," or "The Way Never To Do It." This proved to be a demonstration of Professor Johnson's school of journalism, and was cleverly carried out with Marco Morrow impersonating Professor Thorre.
B. P. Bartlett, of the Topea Daily Capital, sang two songs after the farce and the moving picture, "Racing the Deadline," was shown, for the benefit of those who failed to see it Tuesday evening.
NO PEACE IN EUROPE
Ambassador Page Can See N
Hope In Near Future
WASHINGTON, MAY 5—"The time does not appear ripe for peace in Europe," Thomas Nelson Page, United States Ambassador to Italy, said today, following a long conference with President Wilson. The Ambassador said, while there was no doubt that the people of all the warriors were being weary of the strength of the strait and that they know to a way out. He stated that the light of what he found, none of the warring nations would relish any action on the part of this government or other neutrals toward mediation.
MEXICANS KILL MINERS
Five Americans Are Murdered Working Claim in Sinaloa
El Paso, Tex., May 5 Five Americans were murdered by Mexican bandits while working their mining claim between Rosario and Mazatlan, Sinaloa, western Mexico, according to American mining men arriving here today. One of the slain men was named Volax, the Americans reported. The names of the other four victims were not known.
All members of May Fete Chorus are asked to meet on the golf links north of Potter's Lake at 7 o'clock this evening.
The second engineers' dance will be held tonight, May 5, in Robinson Gymnasium at eight o'clock. This will be the real dance of the year for the engineers. The first one, given about a month ago, was not nearly so pretentious or important as this. The second dance is in the closing hour on the strength of the fact that they closed unusually early at the previous dance.

K. U JOURNALISTS GIVE LUNCHCORE FOR 300 EDITORS
Not to be outdone by their instructors, the students of the School of Journalism gave an informal complimentary luncheon in Robinson Gymnasium to the visiting editors and their friends at 12:30 this noon. At the event, they were introduced by the newspaper men who were present. About, three hundred attended.
This is the first time that the students of the department have given a complimentary luncheon to the visiting scribes and their friends.

Annual Interscholastic Meet Takes Place Tomorrow on McCook
NEARLY 200 TO COMPETE
Will Give Medals to Winners of First Four Places
In Allie Carroll's window is a gorgeous display of medals that will attract the eyes of the high school athletes who will begin to arrive in Lawrence tonight for the annual interscholastic track meet on McCook Field. The veterans will spend no little time in front of the display choosing the ones they would like to wear home to show to the folks and "her."
And there is a crowd of visitors coming in tonight too. One hundred and ninety had entered when the official train arrives, but Mr. Kenyon's office yesterday afternoon. These athletes represent thirty-three Kansas high schools and constitute a larger entry list than has ever been received since the annual meet in previous years.
MEDALS EXPENSIVE
The medals to be given the att-
tes this year are more expensive than the usual medals given for inter-
scholastic competition. The little pieces of metal are given for the first four places in each event and for the winners of the relays. Each visitor gets a contestant's button to adorn the lapel of his coat regardless of whether he places in the meet or not.
The high schools entered in the meet are divided into three classes. The purpose of this is to allow the students to compete with men of their own class not forcing them to buck against a man from a larger school who has better training facilities. Then, too the division of the schools greatly facilitates the handling of the visitors und the running off the meet on sche-
On account of the editorial convention Manager Hamilton is having trouble locating rooms for the visitors. He would appreciate any assistance from the students that they could offer.

UNITED PRESS LANDS
SCOOP IN WAR NEWS
Eight days ago United Press papers published a dispatch from Carl W. Ackerman, United Press Staff Correspondent, accurately the general tenor of the German n.t.e. received today. Ackerman's dispatch said: "The crisis in the German submarine, out of the submarine controversy has virtually missed.
"There will be no break of diplomatic relations, predicted on any developments to date. This statement is made today on most excellent authority. Pending negotiations for a more complete understanding Germania must be under certain explicit instructions from the Admiralty."
The United Press was the only news association to announce that such instructions had been given. The text of the Germany reply today fully confirms the United Press forecast. Ackerman is a graduate of the Columbia School of Journalism.
Aggies' Errors and Craig's Mound Work Gives Kansas First of Series
K. U. NABS FIRST GAME
Manhattan, Kan., May 5—Spoiling what started as an errorless game, in the sixth inning, the Aggies, by a series of bad muffs, allowed the Jayhawkers to send two runners across home plate, from then on. K. U. won the first and third games, the rival had more stuff than his supporters imagined, the Jayhawkers only getting five hits off him. Craig was wild at the start of the game but setled down and held the Aggies to three hits and scored five strikeouts. Score: E . . . . .

TUESDAY IS TAG DAY
May Fete to Have a Grecian Setting
Five hundred $2 and $3 books were disposed of by the management in half an hour this morning, at the check stand in Fraser Hall. A mob of students walked into the windows while the books were slowly passed over the counter. Pushing and crowding was the rule and those students who were lucky enough to work up to the window were free and hurled back by the squirming crowd.
"More three dollar books for seniors who have paid their dues will be here tomorrow," said Editor E. M. Johnson his morning, "and the check stand will be open all day for their distribution. Only those who havewill sell able to get books, however. We have no more copies for cash sale."
The $5 de lume edition will reach Lawrence Saturday. There are only a few of these books, printed for private distribution. They are hand-signed in leather, with gilt tips on the owner's name stamped on the cover.
POWER IN ORGANIZATION
CASWELL TELLS EDITORS
The Weather
G. L. Caswell, field secretary of the Iowa Press Association, in his address on "Organizing the Newspaper Office," this morning before the editors, stated that in organization lay power and influence for the newspaper man. The success of the association in Iowa has proved that the newspaper man is capable of demanding and demand just as much as the bankers or any other business. By this means they can secure fair prices, advertising, and proper legislation.

GERMANY BACKS DOWN

In essence, the message notifies the United States that "German naval forces have received the following orders:
Within ten minutes after the receipt of the final paragraphs of the German reply to America's submarine warfare demands, President Wilson and his cabinet met to consider the communication. They went into conferral with U.S. officials — Germany has conceded to the important demands of the United States.

"In accordance with the general principles of visit, search and destruction of merchant vessels recognition both within and without the area declared to be a naval war zone, shall not be nuked without warning, without saving human lives, unless the vessel is on escape or offer resistance. . . .
"And it (the Imperial government) does not doubt that the United States will now demand and insist that the British Government shall forwild observe the rules of international law universally recognized before the war as are laid down in the notes presented by the government of the United States to the British government Dec. 26, 1914, and Nov. 5, 1915."
ALL JAYHAWKERS SOLD
Only Those Who Have Receipts Can Get Copies of Annual
The entire edition of the 1916 Jayhawkers has been sold out, and there are no more copies for cash sale. Only a few copies have been received, advance, and who have receipts to show for them, will be able to secure copies of the annual. Manager Busenbark and Editor Johnson turned down applications for books this morning.
The rush for copies of the annual began yesterday morning, when the books were first placed on sale in Fraser Hall, immediately following Billy Pressa's success. A mob of excited students waited for him to stand, pushing forward eagerly when the windows were at last thrown open. Pushing and crowding was the rule; and students who were fortunate enough to reach the windows were really thrown back by the squirming crowd before they could be waited upon.

'HUMOR IS ESSENTIAL'
"Newspaper Public Absolutely Demands Funny Stories and Comics"—Gillilan
BIG CROWD HEARS AUTHOR
Writer of "Off Agin, On Agin," Speaks in Fraser
"Humor is a thing absolutely necessary to newspapers and newspaper making. The public demands it. When times are troubles they demand more and more of it. And when times are fearfully bad they demand the slapstick kind." If the address entitled "A Clinic of Humor," delivered before an interested audience this afternoon by Strickland Gillian of Baltimore, can be said to have a text, that gives him permission to bill, Mr. Gillain gave his hearswers a very practical demonstration of the fact that humor is a great newspaper asset; and they all went tentatively feeling for their funny-bone.
"Because I am too democratic to believe in foreign titles," said Mr. Gillian, "I have chosen one today that is not foreign to my theme. The Standard Dictionary, by long oposs, the most erudite of my many friends, tells me that it is "moral education" given at the bedside, or in the presence of the patient whose symptoms are studied and whose treatment is considered."
"Humor is the patient this afternoon. We are at his bedside, studying his symptoms and considering treatment. The chief surgeon has done as much expensive cutting-up as the Marae at Rochambeau, Mistra and the town of three thousand students surround the operating table. Humor is one of the most valuable hinges on earth, one of the things most constantly yearned for. Yet it is furnished oftener by people who know nothing about it than by those who do know. It is absolutely necessary to newspapers and newsletters when it comes to it. When times are more troubleous they demand more and more of it. And when times are fearfully bad, they demand the slap-stick kind.
"Almost every uman has in him some idea of making fun or enjoying the fun created by others. Even the men who draw pictures for the comic supplements are said, by those who write them, to have a sense of humor, though they, being men of families, do not dare let this sense of humor interfere with their work. If some of them were to let their sense of humor prevail over their families' hunger for even a week, they would be afraid of their own salaries, and the public would laugh itself sick over the blank space resulting.
"People with no sense of humor whatever know of the existence of humor and are interested in it as they are in the armadillo, the aard vark or the quagga. As an instance of this:
"Two years ago I was at Spokane, Washington, and spoke one morning to the live-wire audience of high school students in that marvelous Lewis and Clarke High School. We had a riot. After the riot, I was walking along one on the street when a man with a paintbrush, with a mask or a cash attached, to say nothing of his vanyke, approached me and told me he was "interested in my humoh." Now when a man says he is "interested in humoh," just like that, he is devoid. To him humor is not something that quivers inside him and bursts forth like a black miniorca from a new incubator. It is a bug to be pinned them to it as the second under a microscope. So I was alarmed but game. I thanked him for his interest. He went on to say:
"The other day a friend of mine said the most interesting and humorous thing. I called him on the phone, and he replied thus: "Good morning, you're looking well this morning." You know just as if he! He could see over the phone. Ha! Ha! he can see you usurped and lawfed heartily over it."
"I was hard hit. I knew that to reply to this I should have to be pretty when I wanted primitive. So I would just back my old archives of moldy memories and said:
"Yes, the first time I heard that I kicked a slat out of my cradle.'
"Really," said my new friend, "now that interests me also. Is it possible youhum developed so young!" "When you hout it? I did!
"I believe that when the Creator had progressed with the task of creation up to the point where you or I or any finite being would have thought it perfect and complete; when He had put the rose on the lacy bough of the thorn which had been lovely before the bloom burst; when He had let the ripple rise on the bosom of the stream which had been of mirror-like beauty before the killing song when He had the killing song into the gloriously burning throat of the which has been wondrous fair without the song—when He had done all three of these things that nobody except a Master artist, poet or musician would have thought of doing—even then He was not wholly pleased. There was a lack. He knew what lacked, knew what it was, knew how
to supply it as good enough to do so. The missing thing was humor or fun. He knew then as well as you and I have found out since that there would come blue Mondays—days when there was not pie at home, and plenty of pie at the office; days when there would be bolid dinners and the desserts wrong and some artificial means was needed to pontoon us over the stream of gloom to the land of real joy again. So He went about and into everything where it would not create a discord, he injected a bit of what we call fun. Then He looked over the job again, critically and said: "It is good." You'll find the last three words of his speech — "I am sorry," so. Many good things are omitted from even the best Book. And then He went on—for He is a progressive Creator—and He gave you and me and a few other special pets of His eyes to see, ears to hear and hearts to feel and respond to this thing called humor. And He still went on, for He is a progressive that lasts through more than one presidential campaign, and makes them take themselves seriously. And that was the crowning work in supplying the universe with laughter."
The remainder of the address was given up to a copiously illustrated classification of humor into that of (a) Stupidity, (b) Rusticity, (c) Affliction, (d) Rebounding, (e) Femininity, (f) Childhood, (g) Foreigners, (h) Nonsense, and a summing up of the effectiveness of humor in fostering optimism, closing with a definition of optimism as that meant to put a ramble into any human every event into any human and designating as cheerful idioy that "humor pyrites" that makes people go grinning around like Cheshire cat and saying 'Everything's all right, everything's all right,' when more than half of the time, everything isn't.
Little poems of the speaker's own (he is the author of "Off again, on again, Gone again, Finnigin," as well as much serious and humorous newspaper and magazine verse) were inserted now and then appropriately.
Mr. Gillian is a past-president of the American Press Humorists and the star Iyceum humorist of the Rednath Lycmeum Bureau.

E. P. Mickel Declares Old Time Newspaper Had Edge On Present Specimen
E. P. Mickel, Secretary of the National Printers' Club has been in the newspaper business for forty years and he says that the newspaper game was far better in those days than it is now.
"In those days we had better newspapers, better printing, and we could make more money than we can today. Then we had a more thorough press, and then was a finished product. He knew every step in the process of making a paper but now he is a machine or a part of a great machine. No, I think there was a greater field for newspapers than it still. The newspaper of today can hope to reach its greatest good through efficiency in service. There is a distinct opening for the country papers and they can improve not by trying to spe the city papers, but by giving real service to their subscribers."
When asked what he thought of journalism schools Mr. Mickel said: "They are the greatest things in the world and one cannot realize how much they have saved by having some one explain the technicalities of the trade to him. It's a thing that the older men have gotten through experience. Then, too, journalism at a school gives a man more facts about the bare fact that are needed."
The out of town women who are hearing the talks on the Hill this week, are Miss Alice Marble, Ft. Scott; Miss Anna Carlson, Lindsburg; Mrs. T. L. Thompson; Howard; Mrs. Clyde Nox, Independence; Mrs. Imri Zumwalt, Bonner Springs; Mrs. Glick Fockele, Le Roy.

Palmouth Church, Sunday, 7:46—
8:15
The announcement by Prof. H. T. Hungerford that all ministers and faculty were to take seats on the platform and leave the other sorts for the crowd, brought Guy Scirner and Lee Bryant both up on the stage. Lee didn't attempt to explain why he got up there, but Scirner insisted that as he was a minister's son he had a right upon the stage.
At 8:15, half an hour before the doors were opened, people began gathering on the steps of the Gym. At 8:30 over two hundred were waiting at the door, and at last opened at 8:45 there were over five hundred seeking admittance.
"Ma" Sunday also got the eyes of the crowd as she sat solicitously watching her husband nervously wait through the singing. She was dressed in a spring coat of black sarge combined with satin, belted in at the waist with a large black satin color. Her white straw hat was trimmed in blue and with a black velvet band and a large crimson rose in front. Her dress was sand colored serge with ercu lace front. She wore black gloves.

Waldo Says Central Bureau Tames Mighty Force of Printed Word
WOULD CENSOR ALL COPY
Believes In Investigation of All Investments
"You men of Kansas have shown, in establishing your Central News-paper Bureau, a real truthal of the need of taming and harnessing that might be destroyed by the American nation is being built—the lift, and full of the printed word. . .
"Against the day of compulsion, brought measurably nearer by the recent decision of Justice McKenna in the Supreme Court that exaggerated advertising is a crime, I consider it irresponsible to guarantee his merchandise advertisements now, and to censor all investment offerings as closely as would a bank. Every community has the right to demand that its publishers only sound money and sound advertising shall be put into circulation."
These two passages sound the keynote of a speech on "Garanteed Printing" by Richard H. Waldo, business manager of the New York Tribune, to the visiting editors and publishers, in Mr. Waldo's absence.
Mr. Waldo's paper follows:
Mr. Waldo's paper follow-
Two years ago I had the privilege
of meeting a distinguished compu-
nputer gathered here for Kansas News-
paper Week. So there was no hesitation about my accepting the invitation of Professor Thorpe this year.
But there's a reason beyond pleasure for coming. When last he was I a magazine man, suggesting theplication of my theories to you busi-
Since then I have reformed. The theories have been and are being applied to the reconstruction of a great metropolitan daily. Because they are working out well, I bring them to completion, the name of Gunzip-printing.
The public for many years past has shown an increasing tendency to respond to advertising, yet the tendency has been tempered with suspicion. Advertisements have drawn the multitude but disappointments have distracted them back. It is only the misguided goods began making better than 50-60 with disappointment that publicity has become a factor of measurable worth.
You men of Kansas have shown, in establishing your Central Newspaper Bureau, a keen realization of the need of taming and harnessing that mighty force by which business being built—the lift and the printed word. Only the publisher who is not a business man can fail to see the vital interest of every newspaper office in the harrying. That it has to participate in the inevitable, as wider than protest against its effects.
How much does it cost to run a newspaper? All the money the publisher has or can get hold of—if he has an ideal towards which he builds. But something less will suffice to produce a handsome property. If the men in charge understand that the right to collect and marketing revenue is a public franchise as is the right to collect money for transportation.
Regulations of the railroads, "for the good of the public," is understood by easterners to be the chief indoor sport of the western newspaper man. Regulation of newspapers, also for the good of the need is removed, well follow unintended directions and be reviewed completely by any paper in which confidence is not destroyed by advertising Mr. Hyde and an editorial Dr. Jekyll. F. P. A., who is not unknown in Kansas, has put the verse in verse.
"important is the nation's health Naught is the question if the shekel ill fares the land that worps wealth" Says editorial Dr. Jekyll.
“Do you get up with aches and crickens?
Have you get stitches in your side?” Try Dr. Killen’s Vi-Tal-1x”
Says advertising Mr. Hyde.
"Down with the greedy grafters who Columbia's 'scutcheon would bespeckle
Three cheers for the red, white and blue" Cries editorial Dr. Jekyll.
"Does zero weather give you chills? Insomnia leave you weary eyed? Try Fakem's Phony Purple Pills" says advertising Mr. Hyde.
"Better than gold an honest name.
Be true, and let the envious heckle
Play fair, whover wins the game."
Shoots editorial Dr. Jekyll.
"Lost energy, ambition, calm?
Read Dr. Fierer's Gilded guide
Remember Biddy Bunkem's Palm?"
Says advertising Mr. Hyde.
CONFIDENCE THE GREAT ASSET Confidence is the commodity in which publishers deal. Credulity may be exploited, but confidence can be gathered and sold in the market place. Therefore it concerns every editor whose working revenue must come in an underrated measure from the angle of his readers' confidence, to work as he may toward the increase of his crop. It is a poor farmer who lets the weeds grow unchecked among his corn.
if a publisher has the active confidence of his public, all else shall be added unto him. Circulation, advertising, prestige, power—all these spring from the root of confidence. A man may even become Governor of Kansas if he can sell confidence to enough of the electorate!
it is well said that the cost of selling any article depends upon the maker. The successful publisher is fully aware of this, and storing his marketing materials in his product, increases number realize that it is both cheaper and better to do 80 per cent of the selling by building up permanent interest and confidence than to leave 80 per cent of the to transient writing solicitation.
EDITORIAL ASSISTANCE
EDITION
The late John Hill set an example through that newspaper men have been slow to follow. He edited his papers with the avowed purpose of making the editorial and news matter so pertinent to the interests of his readers that advertisers would seek the privilege of paralleling his dependable information with equally reliable specific facts of their nature. His great success is a matter of record, and the technical press in other fields bears much month after month, to the golden soundness of his theory. Yet it is little understood in the newspaper field, which creates a beautiful opportunity for the newspapers of Kansas.
Kansas.
Your Central Newspaper Bureau will give highly profitable if it is given the right kind of material with which to work. Study the trade and technical press. The Iron Age, Power, Dry Goods Economist, Boot and Recorded, to name but a few—and you will get them at a low price. If Kansas newspapers ever become as definitively such papers are, Kansas editors will also count their incomes in hundreds of thousands each year—though perhaps you do that now!
GETTING MORE LOADGY
Local advertising can be developed most effectively by the wise stimulation of interest in the things which local merchants can feature in their advertising. Good store service —tales from town and out—makes a good editor the editor with eye. The abuse of exchange privilege contains many a story, if a man can get the facts. Food values are usually of greatest interest to a community at about the time an editor writes of discussing the equipment equipment with facts that are inherently interesting to women with homes to run.
Let a paper become known as the source of dependable information of any of these or various other lines, and correspondring advertising come almost of itself in a paper's columns. Average editor will serve pass up all such opportunity and give columns to clipped stuff that could not hold a reader's eye for more than an idle minute—matter that means absolutely nothing. Try the experience can be made just as news about the things people about in-space now given to fillers, and see what happens to your advertising revenue
The magazines have utilized the idea for years. They have let the newspapers hold the bag of about-pople while they have quietly gathered the crop that grows from news-about people. Consider the greatest business carrying paper in the world—the Saturday Evening Post—and no further urging will be needed. George Hough Perry, as Director of your Bureau, can give invaluable aid. He will show you how to get news out of whole classes, news automobiles, clothing, foods, clothes—news that will build circulate and drawing as a melonpatch draws boys. Sir months of editorial work along these lines—six months of utilizing practically space for the presentation topics about things, methods services by Kansas newspaper, will stimulate local markets, will also draw and also state papers a royal share of national advertising.
NATIONAL ADVERTISING NEEDS
At the present time, an appropriation of $1,000,000 is seeking investment in small town newspapers United States. Back to the magazine because of the difficulty finding papers which have consistently interested their readers in the class of goods which will be advertised. Press agent work is not wanted—would be better to favor—but the lack of reader interest depressing effect upon the management thus far. Perhaps Kansas can restore the waning optimism of these men with money to spend.
Any copy of one of the great national publications contains countless
suggestions for developing editorial policies which increase advertising revenue. Volume of business in a majority of the national mediums is proportioned to the stimulative editorial policies, as you will find by analysis of the text. Follow their lead, pick the news that touches the largest fields of advertising and watch the crop come up.
Not that you should proceed with the idea of putting the magazines out of business. That will never happen—magazines fill a need that apart from the "millionaire's scope" and newspapers can—and presently will—co-operate to immense advantage. But newspaper publishers must have certain policies in common with magazine makers, especially regarding what can be either Germany and England are not much apart today than are the publishers in the two fields.
The primary basis of comprehension must be an agreement on a common standard of responsibility—because their's is the higher, than the magazine's. Until that fact is accepted, newspapers will go to grope in the dark for a share in appropriations which now are beyond their reach. But frequently it will pay the publisher to encourage local advertisers to feature nationally advertised foods which are carried. Marked copies of articles showing such advertisements are the best silent solicitors that can be sent out.
REPLACING BAD ADVERTISING It is new business, hitherto confined to magazines, that have the poor and bad ones which is increasingly valuable to decent men. This way to get good business is to throw out bad business, but it is hard to make new newspaper men believe that. Presently they will, and then we shall have them and near the day when we will guarantee advertisement in their as in matter of fact a way as a banker now guarantees prior endorsements on checks sent through for collection. Accepting a fraudulent advertisement is just as important as taking a bad case. The responsibility one case ought to be exactly as it is in the other—at the source of the error.
source.
Source demands that those who make mistakes shall pay for them. That is justice, and it provides a salient guard against repetition. Society realizes that of accepting frauds or advertising can be given to every publisher at very moderate cost, society is likely to impose drastic penalties for failure to do the fair and deceitful. No moral law can continue continually broken as receiving the reenforcement of a legal statute, duly enforced and unpleasantly enforced.
Against the day of compulsion, brought measurably nearer by the recent decision of Justice McKenna in the Supreme Court that xaggregated advertising is a crime, I consider it the part of wisdom for a publisher to guarantee his merchandise advertisements now and to censor all investment offerings as closely as would a bank. The cost of such a guardian will be kept low—our costs are 98 cents per thousand dollars of advertising carried—by the fear that it may run high. The fear will bar out even doubtful advertising, and every community has the right to demand of its bankers and its publishers that only money and sound advertising shall be out into circulation.
shall be put here for I Kansas newspaper men as a group, are the first to see this truth and act upon it, new laurels and more money will come to the state which is famous for its appreciation of both.

DON'T BECOME A FOSSIL
—iben franken.
Arthur Briabane, of the New York Journal, the editor who talks to two millions of people every day through the medium of his publication, made the statement in his address this morning, that "we must not fossilize after finishing school. We must continue to grow." Could any advice be more poignant?
And to win you must grow, and grow.
While in school we drive into the library, we read the magazines dealing with current events and their relation to affairs of the nation. We think in terms of economics, political science. As students in the University we are urged to keep abreast of the times; and we grow.
But you seniors, you students who are going out into the big, busy, overcrowded world. Will you fossilize or will you continue to grow? Tighten up your belt, take a deep breath, and go out into life with the determination to win the game.
THE LITTLE THINGS
There is a bond of sympathy between Lawrence and European people. The K. C. Interurban and world peace are both coming—sometimes.
They were walking up the Hill to gather.
"This is Thursday," he said, "wonder what show is on down at the Jitney. Nothing else to do in this burg."
"Have you written home lately?" she asked, "that might take a little of the time that seems to hang so heavy."
It's the little things that count.
YE SUCCESSFUL SCRIBE
12. Scribe
Were Thomas Jefferson alive today he would undoubtedly wish to be a Kansan. And he would select the capital of the state—Topeka—as his ideal city.
According to Jefferson's own words he, "would rather live in a country with newspapers and without government than in a country with government and without newspapers." Topeka not only has newspapers but its high officials are newspaper men. The Governor is head of the Capper publications, the Mayor of the city is Jay House or "Dodd Gaston" so well known in the Capital's Second Thought Column. The sheerf, L. L. Kiene, was formerly managing editor of the Topeka State Journal, while the chief of police, Harvey Parsons was the cartoonist on the Journal. Then, there are the state treasurer, state auditor, state printer, governor's secretary—all newspaper men.
Several other newspaper men of past days, are now holding down positions in various city cancities. Some are candidates at the primaries.
K. U. continues to lead the world in new ideas and inventions. The latest is a "smokeless smoker."
A VAIN HOPE?
Has the world and human nature then, changed so much since 18157 Arbitration is no new idea or experiment. It has been tried and tried again. After the downfall of Napoleon the powers of Europe formed a great coalition with just this idea of maintaining peace. And the coalition succeeded only so long as no discordant question arose. Nations are made up of human beings. One generation cannot profit by the experience of a former generation. The same thing holds true with nations. Idealists say that the nations of Europe will be worn out and disgusted with war that they will never wish to fight again. But so were they worn out a century ago. A new generation has come into being now who have not before this passed through the harrying experiences of war.
It is to be hoped that the idealists may be right in their hopes for the success of a board of arbitration. The exception may prove the rule for once. But if the student of history does not see hope for peace through a board of arbitration which has failed in past years, he sees a possibility for hope in modern warfare. Under the modern system of warfare decisive victory does not seem a possibility. This may be the rift in the clouds. If it can be truly proved that war can result in no victory, the result may be to abolish war. But the clear eyes of the student of history perceives that the abolishment of war does not result from a firm belief in the powers of arbitration.
If there is any money left after the senior memorial is bought and paid for, we respectfully suggest that the merits of the grocery bill be investigated.
PERSONALITY
What is it that makes one man a success, another man a failure, even though they have the same education, the same opportunities? Why is it two brother Phi Beta Kappas go out from college, one of them to become a power in the world, the other never to be heard of again? Why is it that an education does not necessarily fit one for life's battles?
That something needed by all of us, whether we be professional men, business men, politicians, or housekeepers, is "Personality." Without it we lack the ability to make the distinctive success of our life which we otherwise would.
College is an ideal training camp for such an accomplishment. Personality will add to one's happiness—and success.
Personality cannot be assumed. It must be developed. To some it comes naturally, but to the large majority it must be cultivated, cajoled, and catered to, before it becomes a part of them.

she work if those pioneers who laid
the foundation of Kansas as one of
the strong units of the nation. The
following passage from the story
gives a new idea of what pioneer
life in Kansas was:
that young Cole trucks brought his wife to Kansas. They were wise men, hearty people and they conquered the wilderness. A home sprang up in the elbow of the stream. In the fall long rows of corn-shucks trailed what had been the meadow. In the summer a field stood horse-high with corn. Professionals bluff, as the years flew by, the spencer nights, see the checker-board of the farm, where she kept, smiling in the sun. Little children frolicked in the king row and hurried to school down the green lines of the lanes where the hedges grow. Once a slow procession, headed a spring wagon, with a little black box the rows have been seen filing between the rows of the half-grown poplar trees, and out brown, stubble-covered prairie, to the desolate hill and the grave yard. Now neighbors from miles around may be heard coming in the rattling wagons across vale and plain, laden with tin presents, after which the little boy finds with lights while the fiddle vies with the of the frickling party, dancing with the wanton chops on the bluff across the stream.
There were years when theugent in the kitchen burned far into the night, when two heads bent over the table, figuring to make ends meet. There were years the gritish figure became bent, and years the fight faded in the woman's eyes, while the lithe figure of the man was grumelled by the rigors of the struggle.
It was thus that young Colonel Hucks brought his wife to Kansas.
WITH WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE
Witter Bynner, the American poet,
whilst visiting the University recently,
mentioned William Allen White as easily the preeminent literary genius of Kansas. His "In Our Town" and "A Certain Rich Man" are famous the country over, but "The Home-Coming of Colonel Huck's" is not well enough known—even in Kansas. It shows all the rigors of early life in
There were days—not years, Bank God—when lips forgot their tenderness; and as fate tugged fiercely at the barbed bit, there were times when souls rebelled and cried out in bitterness and despair at the roughness of the path. In this wise went Colonel Hucks and his wife through youth into maturity, and in this wise they faced toward the sunset.
CENTRAL NEWSPARED BU
CENTRAL NEWSPAPER BUREAU
The Moyers who attended the
Mayors' meeting prepared
pressness in St. Louis recently
turned with many stories of
the people they met from the other
ities while in the Middle West. Interest
of those from Kansas City who at-
tended a conference seemed to be
centered in St. Louis, and the
Central Newspaper Bureau in Lawrence
for the purpose of increasing adver-
tising in Kansas papers, and boosting
the business of Kansas merch-
chant. The last Legislature of the
State appropriated an appropriation
$10,000, contingent upon the news
papers of the State raising an equal
amount.
The newspapers have just completed their contributions, and the bureau will begin work this month. The department will be handled by the School of Journalism at the versity of Kansas. The object of the bureau is to furnish Eastern manufacturers with information as to the needs of Kansas people, so that these can have space to the Kansas newspapers and the business of the local merchants.
When the manufacturer of an article plans to start an advertising campaign he can learn from the Central Bureau just what class of people would reach. If the maker of silk stockings wants to know how many Kansas women stockings or how many were purchased in the State last year, the bureau will find out, and also tell him how many pairs of silk stockings each county. The advertiser can then guided accord-ing to his judgment as to whether or not he will carry his campaign into that territory.
A manufacturer of a tractor engine, in planning some advertising in
several counties of the State, asked the newspapers to give him the information as to the number of farmers with sufficient land to make a tractor profitable and with means to buy one. He also wanted to know what other uses than plowing a tractor could be put to in their counties. Such information as this the Central Newspaper Bureau will gather and furnish to newspaper, and advertisers—N. Y. Time.

"There appears to be hundreds of thousands of good people who clamor for a clean newspaper who do not care to take one," said James Schermorhon, publisher of the Detroit Times, in his address before hundreds of visiting editors and publishers at the University of Kansas yesterday.
When asked for a title for his address, Mr. Schermerhorn termed it "Testing the Beatitudes" and discussed his own efforts in endowing to make a success of a metropolitan paper conducted along Sunday school lines.
"A temperance leader," he said, "told me we were bringing in the Kingdom of Heaven by excluding liquor advertisements and that if we ever decided to get out a morning paper we could count on him as a subscriber. He found it more comfortable to read a printing press cheery clergyman stopped me to say that he had nothing but praise for our attitude. As I saw a copy of each of our esteemed contemporaries sticking out of his pocket, I knew he meant what he said. A certain automobile manufacturer of Detroit has never needed banks except as places of deposit. We have never needed cash. The company divides its earnings among its employees.

"My last word is entwined with hope. The Beatitudes are doing better. Perhaps we shall not require an entire twenty years to prove that a man is capable of success and animate. If our testing of the Beatitudes eventuates into a single business achievement it will do much to bring in the day when the American press shall be as unassailed as it may be, and within us why not within the teeming pages of the daily press where nearly everything else is?
"I am a crank!" is the way that A. Q. Miller explains himself, "if you don't believe it ask the readers of the Belleville Telescope, but it is all good roads. My time and my hobby is good roads. My readers have got used to it but not until after they had fixed and joined in the campaign for good roads, did I let them rest. I think the newspapers are the one group that has got good roads." Mr. Miller is vice-present ident of the Pikes Peak Ocean to Organ Highway.
"Yes, sir I'm editor and I am also janitor," said R. P. M.Culloch, editor of the Anthony Bulletin, who is known to the newspapermen as Bob. The men throughout the state think they have a joke on Bob because they claim that he has been offering his photo as an inducement for subscriptions but they all claim that the deal will be worth while and advise anyone to see the picture before they turn down the offer.

Ottawa is rather a poor climate for newspapers says Mr. Scott, editor of the Ottawa Herald, when asked what chances and prospects centered around Ottawa. "It was only the other day that one of the papers succumbed. However, it only helps our chances and we will find it rather smooth sailing now. The Herald was never healthier."
P. D. George who recently sold the Mankato Monitor is here for the week. He was recently elected delegate to the Republican national convention. "The chances for newspapers now I think is farther west. I haven't any idea of where I shall settle down but I know I can get some idea of what the other editors are doing by taking in newspaper week."
L. V. Valentine, editor of the Clay Center Times, says that the secret of success in a country newspaper is accuracy and plainness. "Editorials are too often misconstrued and I find it best not to comment on current happenings unless it is necessary. I have cut my editorial page down to a column and then I find it is difficult along without trumponing on someone else. Then another big problem is to get things correct. If a man's name is J. P. Jones and you put it P. J. Jones he is insulted or at least willing to admit that the newspapers can't get anything right."
Carl Hunt, editor of Associated Advertising, the official organ of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, came here from Indianapolis last night to talk to the editors. "The purpose of the organization is to arrive at a greater truth in advertisement together to accomplish their work."

BIG STORM IS PREDICTED
But Clouds Will Gather, Break and Fade Away
One of the most spectacular features of the May Fete, Friday, May 12, will be the presentation of a storm brewing, breaking and clearing. Every phase of the storm will be interpreted with dancing and music; five hundred students of the University will appear in this one feature.
Pam, Earl Metcalf, and his companions are discovered in the haunt of Venus swinging a crowd of mountain nymphs, forty young women of the mountains, and the maidens, and Cupid, Ray Gafney, accompanied by Rose Maiden's appear. At the height of a general merrymaking Diana, Helen Topping, with her maidens; the maidens desert Diana to join John and she retreats to the forest.
The revelry is rudely interrupted by the North Wind, J. B. NcNaught, sweeping across the scene. The East West, and South winds pass by more gently. Clouds, a chorus of twenty dancers, float over the scene, raising a grey mist before the merrymakers, and entirely hiding the three hundred revelers from view of the audience. The rain falls across the lightning, Fritz Schnitzler over the playground, the thunder, Carl Brown, bounds noisily through; the clouds lift and a huge rainbow appears.
The storm over, the revelers return to frost broil, more animated and vivacious.
More originality and variety is displayed in the program for the May Fair before. The hundred young women who have tags 'o sell report good sales.
"We worked overtime getting out the Globe last night so we could run in to see Billy Sunday and rub elbows with the newspaper men," said A. F. Converse editor of the Wellsville Globe "and it was certainly a surprise when I took my seat in the Robinson Gymnasium this morning to find such a well equipped and such a model gymnasium here! I remember along in the nineties when I used to come over from Ottawa University to play against K. U. we were more than disgusted with the gymnasium facilities here. The basement of Snow Hall was the gym in those days and with the ceiling something like ten feet to do anything unless to try to do anything in the gymnasium building is ideal and you can bet that when my fourteen year old son is far enough along he will be shouting the Rock Chalk that I used to leer."
"The flowing of young life at K U. is an inspiration. The sight of it should cheer any weary, down-hearted newspaperman. I have thrown off ten years already and am going to make it twenty before Saturday night." Bob McColloch of the way Bob said, an arm from the way Bob said it, one couldn't help but feel that he meant every word of it.
"I began," said Mr. Blanchard, in his pleasant easy approach to taker. "In 1882 on The New York Tribute Arthur Bowers was then City Editor and his training was better than any course of journalism in a university. He had absolutely no regard for your feelings. Later I became Telegraph Editor on the old Commercial, which is now the Globe."
The crowd gets its first chance for applause when Alfred (Scoop) Hill, junior College, and Topeka Capital Correspondent, walked across the platform to the press table, and was mistaken for Billy Sunday.
Who's Who
Mr. Frank MacLennan, editor and owner of the State Journal of Topeka, has purchased the new Model 17 Linotype, the first to be bought in the state, which his plant of eight Linotypes, all multiple-magazine machines but one.
Much advertising fails to produce results because it never reaches the eye of the person for whom it was intended. An equal amount falls because it does not get past the eye and mouse the mind. Your circular, leaflet or catalog has to awaken interest before it can create desire.
FIRST IN THE STATE
The Ft. Scott Republican was the first to place its order for the new MEMO.
Getting attention is the first problem. A picture—possibly a halfstone of the article advertised—will serve the double purpose of attracting attention and adding to the clearness of a description.
Many people will look at pictures when they will not read type. Often they will be made to arouse their interest to the type, introducing them to the type matter.
"For a time he was with the city Press Association. It was then that he covered the most important news of the Big Railroad litigation, the Griswold case, the death of William H. Vanderbilt, and many other current happenings.
Don't merely send the engraver a "bum" photograph and say "make this three inches wide and have it here by Thursday sure." Take up with him the nature of the article, the field it is to reach, the selling problems to be addressed and consult with him as to the best way to use the article, or of decorating the printed page so as to arcuate attention and sell the goods.
It is in this way that the Teacheror Bartberger Engraving Company will be glad to serve and assist the "adman" and the printer. Write to them at 7th and Central Sts., Kansas City, Missouri.-Adv.
For three years, during the Spanish-American war, he was on the editorial staff of The Evening World. He was also connected with The Fourth Estate. He established The Editor and Publisher for Colonel E. B. Shale, then president of the Publishers' Press Association, and absorbed by the United Press Association.
Then he bought a daily in New Britain, Connecticut. After spending two years there, he returned to New York and became Assistant Managing Editor of the New York Evening Telegraph.
At one time he was Sunday Editor of The New York Daily News and city editor of The New York Morning Telegraph.
Eleven years ago he started the first course of street street bricole in the 32rd street bricole p.
New York City. Graduates from this class are now holding important advertising positions in U. S. England and South America.
For 14 years he has been lecturing for the Board of Education of the city of New York. The lecture which he gave yesterday afternoon on "The Making of a Metropolitan Daily" has been delivered over 150 times.
In addition to all this, Mr. Blanchard is chairman of the Committee on Schools and Y. M. C. A., of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. This is one of the most important bodies of advertising men in the world. Mr. Blanchard is scheduled to speak at their next convention, which will be held at Philadelphia, the last week in June.

You have attended these three meetings at other universities, some of which do not have any printing offices whatever. This is the most thorough office of any university I have visited, but would be par excellent, if you had a Linlograph," Mr. Moburg says.
Glick Focke editor of the LeRoy Reporter, and leader of the Kansas Editorial band, paused long enough in his task of getting his band members together to say that he wouldn't miss one of these cost meetings for
any reason other than sickness or sudden death.
A. V. Napier, manager of the Iota Daily Register, deserted the sessions of the Kansas Newspaper week program yesterday and chased golf balls over the hills and far away at the country club.

CUB SCOOPS NEW YORF
LeRoy Blonchard Tells of His First Big Assignment
"It's a great boost to a cub to get a really big assignment early in the game," said Mr. Frank Leroy Blanchard, editor of The Editor and Publisher this morning. "I will remember my first assignment that I had with Mr. William H. Vanderbilt. You remember that Mr. William H. Vanderbilt died suddenly at about four o'clock in the afternoon. He was president of the New York Central railroad and his death was necessarily a disturbing factor in Wall Street. The paramount deceased was Jack Jay Gould the precise effect that Mr. Vanderbilt's death would have on the market.
I went to Mr. Gould's residence on Fifth avenue. He was at dinner and I had to endure that memorable agony of waiting which every young reporter has suffered. Mr. Gould was reputably a man of few words. For example, he was able to extract anything from him but a non-committal 'yes' and 'no'. At last for some unaccountable reason, he loosened up and gave me quite a healthy interview. His judgment was, that since the property and stock was so well organized on such an uneasy basis, his bilt's death would have no disastrous effect. Subsequent events proved his prophecy.
When I left the Gould home there was a small r mayfoor **fileiEAT** was a small army of reporters standing out in front clamoring for entrance. Mr. Gould didn't see any of them. Since my story was the first one, I wasn't too sure tan dallies had to print it in the original form. It was dispatched all over the country and needless to say that one help helped to make me."
Newspaper Week Briefs
Frank P. MacLennan, owner of the Topeka State Journal was among the arrivals yesterday. Mr. MacLennan is one of the leading Kansas newspaper men who rarely misses a newspaper gathering at Lawrence. One reason perhaps is that he is a graduate. He is a chemistry. He is at the Beta house. Mr. MacLennan was not a charter member of the Kansas chapter of the Betas but he was the next best thing—the first member initiated.
Joseph A. Borden, secretary of the United Typetheta and Franklin clubs is the retired owner of a big printing establishment at Spokane, Wash. Back in the "Airly" days he ran the Colby Free Press.
E. P. Mickel, secretary of the Nashville, Tenn. Printers' club, and another one of the newspaper week speakers, came to Kansas in 1870, learned the printing trade and soon became a printer at Neoho Falls. Another distinction which Mr. Mickel has is that he recites Riley poems in clever style.
William Allen White last week made the boast that no other Kansas paper had more "graduates" on the Kansas Editorial Association program than the Emporia Gazette. The Emporia entries are Roy Bailey of the Salina Journal, Rolla Clymer of the Olathe Register, Ralph C. Hemenway and John Redmond of the Burlington Republican.
Harry Harte, of the Dodge City Globe, who is among the visitors used to play football under Bert Kennedy when he coached the Jayhawkers.
E. L. Hunter, who is editor of a weekly at Weeping Water, Neb., is among out-of-date men in Law-ware out-of-state because he was on the program.
Dow W. Busenbark, registered at the journalism building as here from the people's Herald at Lyndon, Kansas, has been a resident of Lawrence during the past winter. His son Ross Busenbark is business manager of the 1916 Jayhawker which was placed on sale this morning.
Harry W. Boueck owner of the Crawford County Enterprise, not so very long ago worked in the composing room of the Topeka Daily Capital. He felt the call of country journalism. First he bought a half interest in the Alma Signal and later secured the paper at Giard.
Representatives from firms manufacturing printing machinery, and from paper houses are thick on Mount Oread this week. Most of them are distributing their libraries along the campus along with the advertising cards of the candidates before Thursday's student council election.
Lem Woods of the Chanute Tribe has a double reason for being here. One naturally is to attend the newspaper festival in Nashville, where he is with his cousin, E. P. Mickel, of Nashville, Tenn., who is on the program.
The Kansas Agricultural college is represented here by George S. Strother, of the Aggie school department of printing.
duties as a K. U. senior to attend the meetings this week. Dodderidge launched into the new/paper business during the past summer. He wanted to complete his school so he hired a man to run his paper for him.
Bill Kercher, former Topeka correspondent of the Kansas City Journal and now publicity man for the Bell Telephone company arrived yesterday. Kercher has the reputation of being the best glad hand artist among Kansas newspaper men. A handsake from Bill Kercher is an event.
Oley Weaver, editor of the Sedgwick Pantagraph, although a comparative youngster among Jayhawk men, has made an enviable reputation as a paragraph writer. Tonight he will enjoy a reunion with a former instructor of English at the political college, Clif Stratton, now political writer for the Topeka Capital.

Too Dependent on Ads, Says Burmingham, to Exert Independent Influence
"The newspapers always have been, and I think always will be, the most important factors in the building up of any community, and in the fostering of a public enterprise," said E. F. Birmingham, of New York, editor "of The Fourth Estate, before yesterday' session of Newspaper Week.
"One fact, however," he continues,
"that we must face squarely, is that daily newspapers have for years past gone on giving to the advertisers increases in their circulation without any commensurate increase in ad revenue. The more news there will soon be no newspapers with which to serve the public."
Miss Alice Marble, who is in the office of her brother's paper, the Fort Scott Tribune-Monitor, came Wednesday to attend the meetings of the Cost Congress. While at the Uni-
Mr. Birmingham said that the editor of a good newspaper is one of the most important factors in the success of any community but that the co-editor of such a publication totally necessary to the editor as is that of the editor to the community,
"Our newspapers," he said, "are owned by working newspapers with very few exceptions, and they are working hard and conscientiously but there must be a radical change in the source from which a news revenue is obtained. Advertising makes money from larger number of merchants so that combinations will be possible. The moral which I wish to point out is that a newspaper publisher cannot do much in the line of real conscientious community building today as he could if he were not so dependent upon mass advertising. If he wishes he would be a politician which he lives demands criticism, he is immediately confronted with the fact that a few powerful interests control the bulk of his sources of income. Eliminate the horrible strain which is on the mind of every publisher today over the increase in the cost of paper and everything that goes into the newspaper and he will be able to give attention to the responsibility as a community builder, which his position upon him."

He said that comes once in a life time, a young editor walks into his own newspaper office, was described by C. H. Browne, of the Horton Headlight-Commercial, as being without a parallel.
Because of ill health, Miss Carlson was compelled to give up her work on The Eagle and return to her office, but is now ready to go back into it. Then Mr. Zumwalt of Bonner Springs, a reporter this morning, he said, "Miss Carlson is going to get back into the work soon. If she can't get a position, she is willing to marry him. And I will give her work on his paper, although Miss Carlson is like most newspaper women, not matrimonially inclined."

Editors of Associated Advertising Believes Kansas Plan Opens New Chapter
DEPEND ON BUSINESS MEN
Says Merchants Must Co-operate With Publishers
Carl Hunt, editor of Associated Advertising, praised the work of the Central Newspaper Bureau, which was recently inaugurated at the University of Kansas, and predicted that it would open an important chapter in the development of advertising methods, in an address to the editors yesterday.
"The success of the Central Advertising Bureau, which I predict will make a mighty interesting and important chapter in the history of advertising, depends quite as much upon the business men of your respective cities and towns, as it does upon you." Mr. Hunt said.
"You are here because you believe in your papers, in your towns and in Kansas as a market. Enthused with that belief, you are ready and willing to work. You can and you will do your part.
"But how about your local merchants? The general advertiser, whose copy you want in your newspapers wants more, merely, than a good advertising medium. He does want a good medium, of known circulation, of an institutional influence and with clean advertising columns, but he wants more."
"He wants a responsive public—a public that believes in advertised goods and that believes in advertising. He wants a public that believes in your local merchant, (his distributor).
"He also wants a responsive merchant—a merchant who is reaching out after new trade, catambating mail order advertisers and showing other signs of life. He wants a merchant, who realizes that profit depends more on what goods turn over than upon the length of the original mark-up; a merchant believes in advertised goods, who knows advertised goods do turn over; who is square with the public and with those from whom he buys goods; who knows the value of co-operation, both with the manufacturer and with those of the home town; and this merchant knows how知广告, truthfully and well.
"Briefly, the best way for a publisher to start an advertising club, experience has shown, is to remain a first. He should let the buyers of your book do more at the beginning. His paper can encourage the idea and the headlines office of the Associated Advertiser, the author of literary literature, etc., to help.
"First, the publisher should broach the matter to a few leading men—and the busier a man is, the better for this sort of thing. The publisher on the subject himself, will point out the advantages of the organization from the "Then a little meeting should hold, with half a dozen leaders present—the half a dozen men already committed definitely to the idea. This would be for the purpose of planning a general meeting. A list of people who ought to be in such a movement would be made up. This list would be supplied to the Indianapolis, and the news of the proposed club would be unraveled into the columns of your newspaper. From Indianaapolis we will circulate your prospects, paving the way for your organization meeting.
"It has been found best to have this first meeting all cut and dried, if possible—like we do political conventions over in Indiana. Officers can even be agreed upon in advance, A constitution, after the little model therein and reader. The association has adopted, can be written and read. The organization can be perfected and a definite meeting thus arranged. Conferences can be named to outline some plans for work, to be reported at the next meeting."

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
"EDITORS MUST THINK"
Chester S. Lord Says Good Journalists Must Read and Study Incessantly
TELLS OF DANA'S METHODS
Former Sun Man Relates Incidents of His Great Chief's Work
Chester S. Lord, formerly managing editor of the New York Sun, spoke on "Journalism as a Profession" and praised his morning in part;
The profession of journalism in spires to intellectual effort. There is no limit to the flood of results that may follow thought. There is no climax to study—for though the study must continue to stabilize the intellect, it has always thought contined. The profession of journalism affords every opportunity for the sweep of the imagination, for the development of every intellectual eccentricity, for the practice of every intellectual perfection. You find your self aglow with the fascination of a new thought; with new things to think about, new things to study, new things to write about, new and new and new and new on every day—a daily intimacy with things that exclate and pulsate and inspire. You come to love the work because it is so interesting and because you appreciate its impulse to intellectual progress. There is to me an especial fascination about damp proof sheets whereon thought and information are first recorded in clear type. It is a delight to know how to add to and a refinement of literary expression to your original sentences. I have known the late Charles A. Dana to revise one of his editorial articles every day for a week and then express dissatisfaction with its literary finish.
EDITORS MUST STUDY
As a profession, journalism has taken subordinate rank chiefly because we have not studied. From four to eight years of study are required of the other great professions. He any man may start a newspaper. He may be ignorant, careless of conduct of unclearn morals, or will often take these imperfections—for the newspaper does not rise above its editor. It is easier to imitate than to originate, and the lazy way to make a newspaper is to steal some other fellow's ideas. The lazy editor better return the quill to the original goose. Until within a very few years there was no systematic instruction in newspaper making—what was so much more difficult to enter an office and absorb what he could by observation. He didn't know how to study or what to study and was no one who had time to teach him if he had known. In large offices in the big cities, editorial writers and leading reporters are expected to write one article only a day. They have time to study. But the offices rich enough to employ in them are too small for the hundreds of other offices where editors must produce three or four and reporters four or five columns a day. These men have no time to study or to teach.
COLLEGES TEACH MEN TO THINK
COLEMAN.
It is favorite saying in opposition to newspaper schools that a boy is better taught in the newspaper office. Now experience has attested that the best place to teach law is in a law school, medicine in a medical school, theology in a theological school and so on including the teaching even of bookkeeping, stenography and typewriting. You are dependent on general knowledge than the newspaper business—not anywhere is thought more useful. Our colleges teach general information and teach young men to think. Moreover, there is nothing like college life to take the greenness out of a boy; nothing equal to association with teachers; pushing, pushing, young fellows to sharpen the wits and make familiar with the ways of the world.
COLLEGE MEN MOST VALUABLE
Now, I am enthusiastically interested in this matter. For thirty-two years it devolved on me to hire the staff of a large newspaper, with the exception of the editorial writers, and I had the experience of seeing hundreds of young men start on their newspaper careers and of observing what became of them. We took on a job as a new employee, and the staff was recruited with young men just beginning, and we all consciously tried to teach them, believing that in that way we made the staff stronger and better. We gave the office boys a chance to become reporters. We tried out young men from business houses, schools and colleges, and from other countries, country newspaper offices. Almost every young fellow who gets ahead in the country has his eye on New York — wants to get going there. And in a way this is a wise ambition, for New York is the best newspaper town in the world—pays the biggest salaries, offers the more advantages for repurposed businesses, provides broader experience in general. Moreover, hundreds of magazines and periodicals are printed there offering opportunity to make extra money. But so great is the flood of applicants it
difficult for a stranger to get a place on a New York newspaper. For many years the average of applications to me was six a day. We started the beginners as reporters. The office boys, who had absorbed something of the spirit of the place, made fairly good gathers of routine news, but the rarely developed great ability, getting not far beyond the imitation, continued to be route reporters; more and more useful indeed, for routine news fills many a column and is of the utmost importance. The same may be said of the boys from the public schools. The men of some little experience in smaller towns did better, but many fell by the wayside when they began to compete in the higher grades of work; and many of them, be it said, were illiterate. I had had. Without question, and I say it without hesitation, the college graduates proved to be the most valuable members of the staff, and a much larger proportion of them succeeded from the start and passed upward to the responsible places. They had been taught to comprehend, to reason, to think, to be resourceful and when they came to higher grade work they learned to write letters to teachers and special correspondents they had the very great advantage of personal presence, ease of manner, ability to command the attention of business men or government officials instead of inviting evasion.
APPRECIATED MY IGNORANCE"
APPELATED MY TUSK.
I feel keenly the necessity for laborious research for my own experience. Unfortunately I did not finish my college course, but went into a daily newspaper office in a small city as associate editor. Three of us furnished all the copy. At the mature age of twenty years I wrote editorial articles on the conduct of war, and she imagined the conération with which I now read those articles. They were an outrageous imposition on the public, and I knew they were, and I may say in truth was recognition of their worthlessness that gave me my first serious thoughts about the newspaper business. I began to appreciate my ignorance and to understand that I could imagine the conération with which I now read these articles.

Mr. Dana's editorial career furnishes a striking verification of the truth I am trying to impress, that constant study leads to success. He was in college a few months only—torely not much more facts than any person I ever met, he read a dozen languages and conversed easily in half of them. He had the office upset one afternoon in search for the correct spelling of the name of an uncommon plant. He wasted not an instant. If he had to wait seven minutes for a proofsheet he utilized the seven minutes in reading the Greek testament. Never was a question of fact raised but he joined the search for the truth of the most enthusiastic manner. His zeal and his interest were a source of tremendous inspiration to the entire staff. Horace Greeley made himself great by application and by study. And may I suggest that you study the presentation of truth; and by truth I do not mean the reverse of falsehood, for surely such admonition is needless to any editor in Kansas — with a clearness and a fairness that will insure its understanding. This is difficult for it involves not only a study of obscure truth with all its contradictory testimony as to fact and its perplexities of conclusion, but also how so to present it that the reader will understand it with the same clearness and the same conclusion as yourself after you have studied it. A high school graduate sits highly editional art. Easy to read and easy to understand should be a fundamental quality of the newspaper.
Recognizing, therefore, the difficulties of obtaining exact information, the editor should study to test for the truth. To men long accustomed to the handling of news for public it must answer the question very statement of fact made in news copy; and repeatedly news is withheld for verification. The public does not understand the painstaking care with which news is presented by well-regulated newspapers. Nor are the difficulties or the comings, the other which newspapers are made, at all appreciated by the people who read.
ALL NEWS VERIFIED
the first news of the assassination of Colonel Roosevelt in Milwaukee came the statement that he was dead—information not as yet verified. First death and loss of life in great disasters high are 100 per cent too high.
The first brief telegram announcing the San Francisco earthquake said that not a building remained standing. The cable flash telling of the blowing up of the Maine in Havana harbor reported that no a man escaped. With
We all must admit the very great difficulty of obtaining exact information and the very great importance of presenting it honestly. Sensational newspapers do no harm so long as they stick to the truth. You may ask, why would someone job type, with headings a foot high, if you like, without other offense that possibly to exaggerate the importance of your announcement. Real sensationalism consists in giving a wrong or false impression or one that leads to a wrong conclusion. Typographical eccentricity merely attracts the attention of those who pose as does the orator's violent gesture—or the so-called breathless anouncement of an excited message—excites curiosity, arouses interest
EXAGGERATION IS WARMPUL
The harmless exaggeration, even the hysteria of the sensational newspaper may not affect the young person who reads it causally. But suppose she acquires the habit of reading it every day. She may be a shop girl or a working girl, and because of her employment or her environment she is not able to read anything else. It becomes her mental nourishment. She comes to think and to talk in its inflamed, feverish, exaggerated language. Its typographical breathless announcements startle her—fill her with feverish emotions. She becomes a pessimist, for in the really sensual sheet novel there are ignored. The virtue go hang, vice is the thing that attracts attention" is the motto, and the maiden is fed on the abnormal, the unusual, on mental monstrosities, on exaggeration and on fancies—on cheap reading.
WIN CONFIDENCE BY SELF-CONFIDENCE
The editor should seek the confidence of his readers, and this may be best secured, perhaps, through reputation for scholarship, through accuracy of statement, through the maintenance of a record. He said that he knows what he is talking about; and let him have confidence in himself. I well remember when I was stammering and faltering over my first original oration, that my dear good professor of blessed memory interrupted by saying: "Lord, the assumption about his subject makes him about his audience. You should assume enough superiority to carry out the illusion—stand up and speak out." Bless his sainted heart! he never knew what a lesson in self-confidence he thus taught—not with reference to oratory, but to as almost every important action of my life. Self confidence requires understanding his subject through study and practice. It is said of President Woodrow Wilson that appreciating its very great usefulness he early in life became ambitious to excel in extemporaneous speaking. Hour after hour he practiced it. Alone in his room he carried on imaginary debates; on his walks he took part in debates at audiences; in the woods he out did William Tell in addressing the crags and peaks. Today, he is perhaps the most polished and entertaining
speaker we have in public life. He obtained the necessary funds for the expenditure of an important office.
STUDY! STUDY! STUDY!
Great newspaper results require extra newspaper effort, for it is a profession to be the law and theology and medicine are to be learned; and you cannot learn it in a month or a year any more than in ten seconds you can start a locomotive or an ocean steamship at full speed. There is not the quick result that followed the question put by him. In this case he climax to his misfortunes found himself compelled to go to work in an Italian gang. "Well, Pat," said the holy father, "How do you like working for a Dago boss?" Your rivence ought to know." answered Pat. Genius may sometimes do quick deeds that most part the work of the world is accomplished through patient laborious study, along lines of established conduct—and not anywhere more conspicuously so than in the newspaper business. You must make your newspaper talked about; you must make it interesting; you must make it elaborate; you must be the leader of thought in your community. Your intelligence must direct the intelligence of your readers. You must cram your memory with facts, for the mind feeds on facts. To do all this you must study to the limit of your resources; to the limit of your intelligence; you must strive to the limit of your endurance—then you have done your best and that marks the measure of your success.
And in any event, let us not forget the words of our old friend the poet:
There's an adage as ancient as Adam,
If not as old as the sun,
"The sun is the moon."
The early birds don't gather in herds, They get there one by one.
They get there one by one.
And the mortal of this is as certain
As the moral of that is true,
If you wish to crush you must take
you wish to succeed, you must take the lead
And the world will follow you.
THE APPEAL OF THE PICTURE Photo engraving, a wholly modern method of reproducing drawings and photographs for use with type in printing has made possible the growth of great modern business successes.
The printed pictures and drawn page borders and cunningly applied cartoon ideas and decorations have caused advertising pages to be read first and have filled the forms of modern periodicals with the business that has made possible their nationwide distribution.
Ninety per cent of all really successful advertising campaigns depend upon pictures which fill most of the eye. The boss will aid the publisher by adding the necessary appeal to the eye by which attention is arrested and held. The aim is to help the sale by making the images more attractive or more intelligible.
The use of good engraving creates and develops business. The Teach- enor-Bartberger Engraving Company of Kansas City, Missouri, offer designs for engravings or are designers of engravings in one or more colors and for all uses.—Adv.

KANSAS HELPS SELF

mation to the eastern manufacturers; acting on that information the eastern manufacturers advertise finished products required by the Kansas trade, and the business of the news, and the local merchants is increased.
The claim is made for Kansas, and it is not likely to be disputed, that it is the only state in the American Union spending money to increase the business of eastern manufacturing concerns, and of its own local merchants and newspapers. This is to be done through the medium of a demand to the maintenance of which the business conditional upon the contribution of a similar amount by the newspaper proprietors. The bureau, it appears is to be operated by the school of journalism of the University of Kansas, its object being to furnish eastern manufacturers with information as to the needs of Kansas people, so those will give more advertising space, so these will give more newspapers and help to increase the business of local merchants. It will be seen that the plan is arranged in accordance with the endless chain idea. The bureau supported by the State, and the newspapers give valuable infor-
The point of greatest interest here however, regarded from the viewpoint of the other forty-seven states, is that Kansas in this matter is doing some work to out of the province of state government a short time ago. It simply makes plain for the millionth time or so, that whatever the people of a advancement country want to do in advancement they interests of their people, they can do.
We should not be surprised if, one of these days, Kansas would prohibit within its borders all forms of monopolistic imposition quite as effectively as it now prohibits the traffic through a major highway. Regarding all precedent, may be the state of the Union to fix the price of gasoline and other commodities.

Greenless is widely known in the University as a star on the football team and was a member of the Sproul-Dumire-Greenless combination which made the K. U. basket ball team the terror of the Valley. Greenless graduated from the University in 1914.
The next graduating recital will be given by Phillip Stevens, organist, in Fraser Hall. He will be assisted by Miss Ruth Staddin Cady, soprana.
The violoncello solo by William Dalton was an especially beautiful adagio chord, with whom Prof. Charles Skilkov companist, once studied composition.

PLANNING FOR NEXT YEAR
Hibiscus the School of Pharmacy has always believed that it not until this year have any plans been nade toward gaining a definite end in holding these celebrations. From on it is intended that plans for he next year's event will begin as the last day's program is mished.
Dean L. E. Sayre came to the University from the Philadelphia School of Pharmacy which is the most prominent in the United States. He held his first class in the basement of the Medic Building where the department of journalism is now located. During thirty years the school has risen from a small, modest present place among the best in the United States. There are at present 60 students with five faculty members with three assistants.
May 16 the students of the School of Pharmacy will make their annual trip to Kansas City as guests of the wholesale houses. They will spend the day visiting the several large drug factories and attending the meetings of the Kansas State Pharmaceutical Association. A steamboat trip down the Missouri River is being arranged for the evening.
TO KANSAS CITY SOON
Kenneth Davenport, one of the telegraph editors of the Kansas City Times was the guest of Robert Smith over the week end. Mr. Davenport was formerly on the Joplin News and the Pittsburg Headlight.

Today's interclass track meet scheduled for 3:35 o'clock on McCook Field will give those athletes not participating in the Nebraska dual meet Friday, an excellent chance to why they should be among the K. U runners in the annual meet with Missouri at Columbia Saturday.
That Kansas has only a fighting chance to win the Tiger meet was shown in the poor showing made against the Cornhuskers, unless some darkhorse shows up in today's class and quarter; heretofore rated the strong K. U. events, even Nebruska was able to place.

DUAL MEET A SURPRISE
Unexpected Happenings Held Score Over Huskers Lower Than Kansas Looked for
O'LEARY WON TWO FIRSTS
Then K. U. Took the Two-Mile
Assuring Cornhusker Defeat
The annual dual track meet with Nebraska resulted in another victory for the Kansas队 on McCook Field. The team was much smaller than the Kansas men were looking for. And not only that but during the meet some who were holding only slight hope for a victory over the northern squad.
NEBRASKA TOOK FIRST EVENT
Strange things happen in track meets and Friday was no exception. They started coming in thick and fast when Treweeke, while warming up for the high jump, again pulled the muscle which he strained last week and was unable to participate in the high and broad jumps against theakers. This allowed Wiley of Nebraska to take an easy first in the broad jump but in the high jump came another surprise. Rise and jump, jumping for the first time in Valley meet, leaped 5 feet 9 inches taking first place.
Nebraska got the jump on Kansas in the first event of the day when Scott and Irwin took both places in 0-yard dash. But Kansas came right into them in the mile race when Sproull dazzled Herrert second in the mile run. Kansas led the lead when Elliott took first in the high sticks and only once during the remainder of the meet was Nebraska able to tie the score. Larry Winn was easy place in the high hurdles when he came next to the last hurdle and fell allowing Baten of Nebraska a place in this event.
A first year man, O'Leary, showed up as the star of the meet for the 220-yard dash and the quarterback's Jayhawker score while his quarter of the mile relay increased the Kansans lead in this event. In the heat he tied the K. U. record of 50 [3-5 seconds made by Rodkey last week.
PREPARING FOR MISSOURI
The two-mile run put the Kansans out of danger of defeat and gave them enough points to win the meet without the relay or broad jump Grady and Stateler ran a slow race but it was fast enough to allow them to come up the straightaway to break the tape arm in arm.
The tracksters will have some real workout this week. This afternoon the interclass meet will be run off rain or shine. Tomorrow and Wednesday workouts while Thursday will be light work. Friday morning the squad will leave for Columbia where they will rest until time for the dual match with Missouri to start Saturday. This will allow me to carry on for the Kansans and ladd all his week will have to be with Kansas to score a victory on Schulte's cinderates.
Kansas will have to overcome one big handicap in the high and broad jumps for Treweke does not expect his leg to be in shape for jumping before the Missouri Valley meet, May 27. This will practically mean that Pittman will take five points for Mission he the high jump and Simpson five in the low jump. Simpson macher can hit the stride he hit last year in the dual meet when he defeated Simpson. But the situation looks mighty serious and just how Coach Hamilton will solve the problem will have to be figured out later,
THE SUMMARY

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the text on paper. University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be courteous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to develop a keen aptitude to the students of the University.
MONDAY, MAY 8, 1916.
THE COUNTRY EDITOR'S DUTY
Probably the readers of the Kansan are growing tired of the rant about a cleaner campus, and it is the hope of the paper that they will become so tired that they will keep the campus clean and make campaigns against the bill distributers impossible. The campus today is in worse shape than it has been at any time during the year, and the Kansan favors a strict enforcement of the rule which forbids the distributing of printed matter on the campus.
THE COUNTRY EDITOR'S DUTY Kansas Newspaper Week, which brought more than 200 editors of country dailies and weeklies to the University, proved conclusively at least one thing--that the press of the Sunflower state is becoming more and more powerful each year as a moulder of public opinion in the rural districts. To even the casual observer the change that is coming over the farming districts is evident.
Public opinion in rural communities is made largely through the group life of that community, that is, through the bodies which find themselves bound together by a common tie or interest. That tie may be church affiliation, occupation, family connection, nationality, education, or any one of a dozen things, and it is only by appealing to it that the editor can make his paper a power in directing and crystallizing opinion on any given question. The Kansas newspaper men have found this out and the stories of the service that they have done to the state will be told in the histories of the future.
Newspapers have changed backward communities, whose groups were antagonistic, to progressive districts, by harmonizing the warring elements and finding a common meeting ground for them. The state is only on the beginning of this movement and much work remains to be done. It is started however, in the right direction and the newspaper of the future that would be powerful must be a community servant.
THE LITTLE THINGS
Two students sat in the library talking in an undetent. Presently the librarian was circling round to where the two conversed. Then, coming to a position, the watchful librarian said gently: "Will you kindly adjourn to the outside, as you are annoying all the students in the room?"
Five minutes later a man of weight entered and engaged the same watchful librarian, just outside the doorway of the library office. A lengthy and distinct conversation ensued. Such being a "rare treat" in the library, the students listened intently.
It's the little things that count.
THE HABIT OF SAVING
American housekeepers are wasteful and extravagant, according to Senator Smoot, who told the United States Senate that "No women on the face of the earth are so wasteful as American women, and the average
American housewife throws enough food into the garbage can to keep an average workingman's family in France or Germany, where the most rigid economy is observed."
America is noted for its "come easy, go easy" method of existence. But isn't it time to change that old worn out custom? The habit of thrift is being urged by the banks, and from the reports published semi-annually, it appears to be bearing fruit. Educational campaigns are showing the housewife how she may prepare an appetizing meal without buying the most expensive cut of porterhouse. Since the war, the shortage of paper has made a number of concerns save their waste, which they had been burning in the furnace.
The majority of the present generation of students is working its way through the University, and is economizing where possible. America may be behind the Old World in habits of saving, but it can learn rapidly.

James Russell Lowell, critic and diplomat, was born at Cambridge, Mass. February 21, 1819 and died Aug. 12, 1891. He became drawn into literature by Maria White whom he afterward married. Her entombment is also the name he wrote some of his best works and was given a purpose for writing.
POET'S CORNER
Lowell was the first editor of the Atlantic Monthly and held an editorial connection with the North American Review, from 1862 to 1873. Many of his critical essays were written during this time.

CAMPUS OPINION
Of the newly elected librarian at Yale University it is said that "no man at the university knows books as he does." Yet he also is a successful adminstrator, and many of his students are similar institutions of late years have put the economics of library administration above its humanities that it is a pleasure to note Yale's wisdom and good fortune. For at some college libraries leadership in students rests unfortunately with student-builders and catalog makers.
The elections have come and gone and the best men have been elected—that is the best men in the opinion of the majority of the student body. We have a new student body, we need more support to make the plan a success. Their success will depend on the support that they receive from us and without support they will surely fail. We are continually harping about the failure of student government and the necessity of getting resentful against the responsive men now—what are we going to do about it? Knocking will make success for them impossible. Boosting will make it inevitable. Let's all get on the band wagon and boost. With a real student-owned and student-operated book exchange the students can get their books forward. Student government will have justified itself. I am in favor of burying not only the hatchet but also the hammer.
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith and must be published in the same manner.

Major-General Leonard Wood, U. S. A., in giving testimony before a Congressional committee, gave his views on the volunteer system used in the Uni- lized States. The Outlook quotes General Wood:
CLASSIFIED
"We cannot afford to cling to the volunteer system any longer. If we are going to have an effective army," he added, "we must general military training, otherwise the good men will go first, then volunteering will stop, as it did in the Revolution and in 1812 and in the Civil War. We need our call for the Spanish War even."
The volunteer spirit is fine, affra-
General Wood, but the system is unso-
nd and spells disaster if ever we go
into real war with it.
Prof—The boys were so entranced this morning that they remained in my lecture all through the dinner hour. You didn't did it, didn't them up—Tiger.
"It is not generally realized that under the Act of 1782 we had compulsory training, but never really applied to the adult population, live it today to the extent that all from eighteen to forty-five years of age are liable for military duty. There seems to be no general appreciation of this; certainly there has been a great interest in discharging such service affectively." General Wood pertinently said.

Thanks Friends of Miss Richards in Letter to Chancellor
NOTE FROM MR. RICHARDS
J. S. Richards, assistant cashier of the Citizens National Bank at Minneapolis, Kansas, father of Lucy Richards, who died at the University recently addressed the following letter to Chancellor Frank Strong;
Minneapolis, Kan., May 3, 1916
Minneapolis, Kana, May Mr. Frank Strong. Chancellor of the University, Lawrence, Kansas.
A deep sense of appreciation of the many kind acts and expressions of sympathy which I received at your wedding, to Lawrence, impels me to write you a brief letter, for the purpose of expressing my most sincere gratitude to you for the sympathetic attention which you favored me on that occasion.
I would like to request an additional favor of you, if I can do so without too much encroachment on your time. Several of the school organizations sent some very beautiful and appropriate floral tributes, as tokens of their regard for the dead and their sweetness, and to let them know that the offerings were received, and much admired and deeply appreciated by Lucy's relatives. I hardly know how to address a letter so that it would come properly before any of the classes, and am going to ask if it would be possible for you to convey to the sophomore class, the class in journalism, the class in philosophy, and the athletic class our earnest thanks for those faithful and touching evidences of their esteem and condolence, that graced and embellished the last resting place of my daughter.
I hope you will fully understand, Mr. Strong, that at no time have I felt that the least blame could attach to the University, any member of the faculty, or to any of the usual activities of the school. It was only one of those crushing and shocking misfortunes that frequently occur in the world.

Lead of One-Sixth Point Decides Victory in Interscholastic Track Meet
A lead of one-sixth of a point enabled the Summer County high school to take Saturday's thirteenth annual state high school meet held on McCool Field under the auspices of the K. U. athletic association.
The Summer County's total was 40
3-6 points compared to 40-1 made by
Iola. Humboldt won in Class B, while
in Class C another close finish resulted
when Syracuse beat out Enterprise
fifth of a point margin, 19-15

Two hundred and forty-four inter-
scholastic athletes from forty-two
Kansas high schools competed in the
meet.
EASY TO MOBILIZE K. N. G.
If Ordered Our Duming Summer Members Could be Called
Should the call come from the War Department this summer it would be a comparatively easy matter to mobilize Company M, K, N, G, in preparation for patrol duty on the Mexican coast, it was learned Monday morning.
"I would not be at all surprised to learn at any time within the next few months that open hostilities have been declared between the United States and Mexico," said Frank E. Jone, Captain of Company M, K, N, G, this morning. "Even though the man would be scattered over the state we could get in touch with them quickly. Every member would be telegrammed and ordered to report at once at the press conference prior to newspapers throughout the state would be notified to print a copy of the order so that those who could not be reached by a telegram would read the order in the newspapers.
Company M would not have any chance to drill, however. They would entrain at once and proceed to the border, remaining there until they were ordered to return home. The militia could be sent across the border to join the regular troops if the War Department had a last resort since the militia are not supposed to fight outside their own national territory.
It was originally planned to have both Lawrence companies take part in the celebration at Baldwin, on July 4, commemorating the battle of Black Jack in 1856. Companies H and M and Lawrence companies took up the pageant. Captain Jones said that he had not been notified that the University company would attend the celebration. He believed that the troule and expense which would be involved in the pageant just a few days after the college year had closed, would not justify the plan.

El Paso, Tex., May 5—General Pershing this afternoon was believed to have definitely located Villa, it was announced at General Funston's headquarters. Funston received a telegram from Pershing saying he believed his men had determined the bandit's whereabouts but the location was suppressed here for strategic reasons.
St. Louis, May 5—The local weather bureau announced this afternoon the high waters of the Mississippi river now menacing points further north would not affect the St. Louis district. The crest of the rising waters is expected Saturday morning when a stage of 24.5 feet is predicted. The gauge today read 23.3. The danger mark is 31 feet.
Washington, May 5—Public hearings will be held on Representative Keating's resolution calling on Secretary McAdoo to inform Congress whether or not it is true that $320,000,000 taxes due under the income tax law is lost annually through evasions.

SHELL HITS MOVIE MAN PROF. BLAKE IS DEAD
Thompson Tells of Narrow Escape While Taking Pictures of German Trenches
"Probably the narrowest escape from death I had while taking my European war pictures," remarked Don Thompson, who spent months snapping scenes on the firing line of all the armies of Europe except the Turkish, in an interview Saturday last month. The last October when an English shell exploded in a dining room in which a number of German officers and myself were eating. Three of the officers were killed instantly. I was hit between the eyes by a piece of iron." And the intrepid picture man stopped to remove the colored glasses to reveal the scar made by the projectile.
"I hardly realized what was happening," he continued. "Our first warning was a tremendous crash, when he smoked—and all was darkness for me."
"I don't know exactly how long we uncoupled. When I awoke I was in the hospital."
IN HOSPITAL 3 WEEKS
"The affair laid me up for over
a week, and I went back to
the treacherous as fast as I could."
"Yes, it was an English shell that he added. "I was in bad company but I had a gun."
Mr. Thompson said that he had many close escapes during his long sojourn on the blood line. He lost three expensive cameras—one was stolen and the other ran away and left. He described the sensation experienced at the front as "indescribable." At first he could not suppress the incinulation to dodge as a gunman would do, but finally his nerves became calloused and he paid little heed to the death shower.
With regard to his personal preduces, Mr. Thompson said that he was for the Allies, heart and soul. "Until I lost my left eye not long ago at Des Moines, where I was showing my 'Somewhere in France' films, I was neutral. It completely changed me. It was preventing threatening letters, warning me against showing views of the French trenches. But I paid no attention to them.
"After an exhibition at Des Moines, I took out my pipe, filled it with tobacco and applied a match . The result was an explosion which cost me one eye and almost destroyed the other. Examination of the tobacco afterwards disclosed that the tobacco had been charged with lydite."

Former University of Kansas Scientist Died In Boston Friday
Prof. Lucien I. Blake, of Boston, for many years a professor of physics and electrical engineering at the University of Kansas died Friday at his home in Boston. Professor Blake came here in 1887, and resigned in 1906 to go to take the position of chief engineer for the Submarine Signal Company.
Blake Hall was named in honor of the deceased. In addition to his duties as professor in the University, he was the director of Fowler Shons.
During the past few years of his life he has been the director and an engineer in the Blake-Marscher ElectroStatic Ole Separating Company, of which he is responsible for this resignation here he was working on an invention for ore separating.
Professor Blassar was born at Mansfield, Mass., Sept. 12, 1854. He received his A. B. at Amherst in 1877 and graduated from study abroad in Germany, and 1884 was granted the degree of Ph. D. from the University of Berlin.

Aggies Fall Before Craig and Smee; Kansas Loses to St. Mary's College
Two Conference games won from the Kansas Aggies, and a non-Conference defeat by St. Mary's, was the result of Thursday, Friday, and Saturday's foreign invasion by the Jayhawk baseball team to Manhattan and St. Mary's. Craig and Snee were the heroes in the two Conference wins, while Smith and Porter pitched in the lost game with the Catholicus.

LORENZ HUNTS ATHLETES:
Takes Gym Classes to McCook In Search of Material
There may be some new athletes on the University track team. H. A Lorenz, instructor of physical education at McCook College, is holding trouts on McCook Field for the men in his gym classes, and if any show exceptional ability he intends to recommend them to Coach Hamilton, as possible Varsity material.
Send the Daily Kansan home to the folks.
"There are men in the University," said Mr. Lorenz this morning, "who would make good athletes if someone would just find them and make them to work. Some of the fellows in my Gym classes have the physical makeup of athletes, and, if I am not mistaken, a few of them are good athletes." It is my endeavor to find such men as may be of use on the track squad and to hand their names to the coaches. It is then the business of the men in charge of the track athletes to see that these men get to work."

Havinghurst Takes Part In Interstate Contest at Omaha
Clarendon Havinghurst, who won first place in the state oratorical contest at Topeka, came out second in the interstate contest at the University of Omaha, last Friday, May 5. He represented the State of Kansas in this contest and his subject was, "The Coming Conflict."
Francis Case of the University of South Dakota took first place, speaking on "The Modern Paradox." The entering states took place in the following order: South Dakota first, Kansas second, Iowa third, Nebraska fourth. Missouri fifth and Colorado sixth. The man winning first place in this interstate contest will go to the national contest at Lake Mohonk.
"I believe," explained Dr. Naismith "the reason that so many persons drown is because they think that they can do it without practice as they could at the end of the summer's training. This they cannot do. As a matter of fact, without practice one can not swim and could have gone with regular practice.
"Each day that the weather is fa-vorable the gym classes will go to the lake and anyone who wishes to join them is welcome to do so.
There were five judges and their marks for the man winning first place were two firsts and two seconds, for Havinburgh they were two firsts, two seconds. He also received one hundred per cent on thought and delivery.
YE SWIMMERS BEWARE
"Anyone found swimming in Potter Lake without a gymnasium instructor present is liable to arrest," said Dr. James Naismith this morning. "Each instructor is deputized to see that this rule is enforced."
All Who Swim in Potters Lake Unattended by Instructor Liable to Arrest
"Another thing to bear in mind is that the lake is not like a river where the water is constantly in motion, but it is still and the water can be warmed there. It is also that there is a warm layer of water, underneath which is a very cold area. When one is swimming near the surface he does not come in contact with this cold area, but should he rightly swim through it and cramps are likely to set in. If the students could only realize this I believe that they would be more careful."
"I should advise," continued the Doctor, "anyone who has not had any practice this winter and who wishes to go out with the classes to come to my office and have his heart examined. The heart like any other part of the body becomes run down if it does not get the necessary exercise."
George Davis, of Scottsdale, a sophomore in the College in 1914, who has not been in school for the past two years, said he was on his way day. He came to hear Mr. Sunday.

LEARN RULES OF THE GAME
Football officials are to be taught new plays introduced into the game in a school conducted by Dr. James Naimsmith, physical director, if the plan of Dr. Bert Kennedy, physical director of Washburn College, is realized.
FOOTBALL OFFICIALS WILL
"In recent years," says Dr. Kennedy, "many football officials have not kept up with the times and have not followed them to the east. Consequently, when a coach uses any of the "new stuff" in a game, such plays may be ruled out by the officials as inseligible. The officials 14, 28, and 31 often especially given to these practices."
A schol such as Dr. Kennedy is urging Dr. Naismith to start would fix a standard for officials and also establish a list of accredited officials. Football games would then be judged by competent and up-to-date men.
EDUCATORS INITIATE
Phi Delta Kappa Lock-Steps
Pledges at Cameron's
“Fall into line. Cut the comedy and mind your step,” was the command that the new members of Phil Delta Kappa, educational fraternity, received as they set out in a line of eight, chained and practically gagged, from Myers Hall, Saturday afternoon to nice littleJAunt to Cameron’s Blur.
The lock-step was rigid and unrelenting and the guards saw to it that it was kept. Loaded with pots and pans and food enough for twenty-eight, the meek and unsumming bunch of educators marched down Indiana past sympathetic, pretty girls and scandalized dames.
Cameron's Bluff was a long, weary way and the lock-step became a limp before a halt was called. A steak roast served to restore the patience that had reached the point of rebelled. The tramp home finished the day.

Will Meet Wednesday to Picnic on Golf Links, Rehearse for May Fete
Senior women will hold a mixer on the golf links, Wednesday evening for the purpose of practicing for the May Fete. The women are asked to meet on the steps of Robinson Gymnasium, Wednesday evening at five o'clock and bring fifteen cents. They will then go to the golf links where they will have a picnic supper. The rest of the day is spent in the fete. All senior women will have parts in the fete as attendants of the Alma Mater.
"This is the last chance the girls will have to practice, and it is necessary that all come who possibly can," said Clare-Gene Dains, this morning.
By all sorts and manners of methods students sought relief from the suddenly-arrived hot weather yesterday. The Kaw River received its share of relief seakers, who report that the old river has lost none of its water and that it is no longer there. Other students discovered that the golf links is a good cool place to take one's books and actually "study." A few who live near North College spread quilts under the trees on the hill and spent a peaceful afternoon buried only by the fluttering maple seeds and by the shifting sunlight.
Those editors who made rash promises of summer jumps in order to obtain another onion or doughnut at the store should be surprised if taken at their word.

DEANS ELECT MRS. BROWN
Kansas Advisers of Women Organize; Conference Ends
The first session ever held by the Kansas Deans of Women will close its meetings some time today after a most enthusiastic and beneficial session. "The best evidence of the good being gathered from these meetings is what we saw this morning, "is the fact that all of the women seem to leave."
A permanent organization has been formed in the two days' meeting, with Mrs. Eustace Brown as chairman and Miss Whitney of the Kansas State Normal as secretary. The Deans have decided to meet annually for the discussion of the problems confronting them in their work. All of the state Deans are welcome to have their men's Deans and several of these sent faculty members to the conference while considering the creation of such an office next year.
Women have grown up with the coeducational institutions and the problems there have never been considered in an organized fashion as the present organization intends to deal with chairmen's experiences and ideas in the annual meetings the deans expect to get much better results from their work.

The semi-centennial anniversary will celebrate the date that North College was erected. The first session of the University opened there on Sepember 1855. University was provided for in the first constitution of Kansas territory at Topeka. Two years later Lawrence was chosen as the location. In 1861 Congress set apart and reserved for the University its university, seventy-two sections of land. The University was organized by the legislature in 1864.

Forty Kansas athletes commanded by Generals Hamilton and McCarthy and Captains Reber and Wandel are going to invade Columbia, Missouri and take control of the "bacon."

McCarty will take thirteen baseball players to the Tiger village tomorrow morning for the two game series. The line-up will not be announced until the final practice this afternoon. Smee will probably be the choice of McCarty for the first game against Eller. These two men who have both played this game will have a real battle Thursday. Craig will be on the mound for the second game unless McCarty chooses to use him in the first game.
In fact, it is going to be Kansas week in Columbia. The Missourians will attempt to make it Missouri week at the expense of the Kansans. The baseball squads will be the first ones to get into the mix-up on Thursday and Friday while the track squads will get into action Saturday.
For the first time in the history of the University Missouri, Columbia's daily newspaper published by journalist students, a young woman, Miss Gladys Baker of Columbia, was elected to the board of directors last night.
Missouri has been going at top speed this season winning twelve. Only four of these were conference games, and the ber that McCarty's men have won from Conference schools. These two games will have an important bearing on the Valley title and without a doubt a large crowd to the Rollins Field.
Miss Lucie Price of Fredonia, was the guest of Margaret Young, at the Sigma Kappa house Friday and Saturday.
The track teams will also have one of the closest matches in the history of the schools. It will have to go some to be closer than the indoor meet this year but it can easily be closer than the one-sided outdoor meet last spring. With Trewecke out of the jump being the strained muscle in his leg, the Kankakei must mightily slimp. The Jayhawker star is sure to be on the sidelines and it is possible that he will not get to go on the trip. Coach Hamilton has hopes that his jumper will be in shape for the Aggie meet next week. The other injured track star, Rodkey, is getting along nicely and with careful nursing and foot he will be able to run at least. The Tigers are distance men are in good shape and promise to sweep up a few points in these events.
The baseball team leaves tomorrow morning for the Tiger town while the track squad will not leave until Friday morning, arriving in time to see the second baseball game. The baseball team will remain for the track squadrade and both teams will come back to Lawrence Sunday morning.
LAST ADDRESS TO K. U.
Woman on the Missourian Now
Prof. Becker Will Launch System of Faculty Lectures.
The last public appearance as a professor in the University of Kansas Prof. Carl Becker of the department of history will be Thursday, 4:30 p. m. at Fraser Hall. His subtitle is "Being a Professor," which he characterizes as written "By one whose early training was not of the best."
Professors Becker and Ogden were put on the program this spring because neither of them will be on the faculty next year. Professor Becker will occupy a higher salaried position at the University of Minnesota and Professor Ogden will be the head of the department of education at Cornell University.
Professor Becker's address will launch a system of faculty lectures worked out under the supervision of Dean Olin Templin. Next year there will be one address per month by some member of the faculty in Fraser Hall.
"We go to a great deal of trouble getting outside men here to lecture," said Dean Templin this morning, "when we have many capable and in our own institution who should be given a chance to talk to the students."
Prof. R. M. Ogden of the department of psychology will give the second faculty address this year Thursday, May 25.
MYSTERY IS BREWING
BIG STUNT IN GYM SOON
Underclass Women Are Or "Inside Looking Out"
Out"
But Participants Won't Give Out
Dope
A mystery is brewing in the Robinson Gymnasium. On May 20, at eight o'clock, it will be solved. Freshmen and sophomore women are concerned—in fact it is they who are doing it. They are ostensibly giving a spring formal for upper classmen but in reality no one knows just what is going to do. Each class has a teacher who knows anything about, and will not know anything about until the aforesaid date.
Just now the May Fete is taking the time and interest of the gym classes, but next week they will start work on their various stunts, and all the "Kings" horses and all the Kings' men" can't persuade those mysterious underclassmen to part with their precious secrets.
The invitations for the party will be out some time the last of this week, A, and freshmen and sophomores are out now to insure against some rival-man.
“This is the first time such a party ever took place here,” said Miss Elliott, who has charge of the plans, and told me that it was a success, perhaps even a custom.”
People who do not dance need not fear to go, for they will not be bored to death. There will be something doing all the time for them and for any one else who finds it too hot to dance. In between the dances these people will take place, and if for nothing else, they will worth while, for these stalls start up.
LITTLE BROTHER
ASSERTS HIMSELF.
To Perform Carnegie Stunt
Having grown to be a sizable kid, and having his own ideas of how things ought to be done, the Daily Kansan's little brother, the Summer Kansan, announces that no will trail with the "free" crowd this summer.
"Fact is," he says, "this thing of being a near-free sheet is humilating. The idea of taking 25 cents for six week's subscription is too much for a boy's pride. I'm gon' the whole road to do a little Carnegie stilt of my own."

Two journalism courses are given in the summer, a newspaper J, and Interpretation of the News L, and the students in these courses get out the semi-weekly paper.
SENIOR WOMEN WILL MIX
This will be practically the last opportunity that senior women will have to get together for an informal good time," said Clara-Gene Dains this morning, speaking of the "picnic-mixer" of the senior women to take place on the golf links tomorrow evening.
Last "Get-together" of Year; To Rehearse for Fete
"It will also be the last chance to practice for the May Fete," Miss Dains added, "and we hope that all will turn out—for both reasons."
The women will meet at Robinson Gymnasium at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon and will then have their picnic supper on the links. Fifteen boys, girls and the supper.
After the lunch, a short practice for the Fete will be held.
Emma Thiessen, '16Col.Ed., will give a demonstration in bread-making before Mr. Clarence Eates' class in milling and baking this afternoon in the department of home economics. She will bake bread-baking bread her especial problem.

This recital will be free to the public.
PHARMICS CELEBRATE
Daddy Sayre's Day Is Being Observed With Games and Banquet
In observance of the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of the School of Pharmacy at the University of Kansas, the first annual Pharmic Day is being held today. After this year the day will be officially known as the Pharmacy Day honors of the dean who has directed the school since its beginning in 1885.
A baseball game this afternoon between the jumors and seniors and a banquet at the Eldridge House tonight will be the most important of the entertainment features of the day. The event will be held in the park's banquet. B. A. Parsons, of the Parke-Davis Company, Kansas City, will be the principal sneaker.
In the thirty years of its existence, the School of Pharmacy has grown until it has a faculty of five with three assistants. Sixty students are enrolled in this school and areized and held to a high mark professionally. Dean Sayre has established the reputation of the school throughout the country and has contributed extensively to the scientific literature over the twenty years he has been at the University.
The school originally occupied the rooms now used by the Daily Kansan but it is now housed in the Chemistry Building.
COB PIPES TO BE SUPPLIED
But Each Man Must Bring His Own Fuel
New Kansas songs will be sung at the next corn cob smoker to be given by the sophomore class probably Thursday, May 18. The committee in charge has not definitely set the date. A director for the songs will be chosen from the faculty of the School of Fine Arts.
Twenty-five faculty men and twenty-five seniors, according to Billy Koester, chairman of the committee will be invited to the smoker. Men from the other classes will also be there.
Corn cob pipes will be furnished to all who attend but each man must bring his own tobacco. The smoker was planned for this week but was postponed on account of the May Fete.
A feature smoker to be given sometime before quiz week is promised if this corn cob smoker turns out good. It will be different from other smokers that have been given—a new idea in smokers.
Dye Yards of Cloth for Fete
Within the last ten days the girls who are to take part in the May Fete have dyeed over 3,000 yards of maida recently, will give the result of the dye experiment dipped several times, but all of it is now ready for use. The girls who took part in the dying reported that they never had had more fun in their lives, and of the fact that they had a hard time dying to get the dye off their fingers.
Wetmore Visits K U
Alexander Wetmore, '12, of the Biological Survey of Washington, D. C., is in Lawrence, today. He is on his way to Corvine, Utah, near the Great Salt Lake, where he established an experiment station so that Mr. Wetmore can study the wild duck diseases prevalent near the salt marshes. Mr. Wetmore was an assist-taker at Museum before he took up the work of the biological survey at Washington.
The girls' section of the gymnasium looks like a street carnival or an old-fashioned quilting bee since the May Fete costuming has commenced.

'17 WINS INTERCLASS
Juniors Capture Intramural Meet With Easy Margin; Seniors, Second
CAMPBELL IS THE STAR
"Hump" Annexes Total of 12 Points

The other classes were bunched together, the seniors finishing second with 35 points, and the freshmen third, with 32 1-3 points and the freshman last, with 30 5-6 points.
This is the fourth time that the present junior class have won in an indoor tournament.
Campbell, a senior, was the largest individual point winner, collecting 12 points in the meet; Reber, another senior was second with 10 points.
The time in the mile was faster than the time for the same event in the Nebraska meet last week, being 5.47 seconds. The University record in the lot-10 championship of being smashed by Larry Winn, a sophomore, who finished in 26 flat, according to two watches, just 4-5 of a second slower than the time made by him in 2011. Although all of the distance events were fast, no records were broken.
The sophomores were weakened by the loss of Treweeke, who was out on account of a sprained ligament and the freshmen would have shown up earlier if Murphy and Dillon could have seen him. But he knee badly in the Engineers meet. O'Leary, the star of the Nebraska meet, showed up well in the dashes.

TO CREDIT TRAVEL STUDY
Advanced Students May Receive Credit for Study Done Abroad
To consider the plan of giving college credit for travel study abroad the University Senate, Miss Eugenia Gallo, chairman, and Professors, W. J. Baugartner, H. B. Cady, J. N. Van Dier Vries and Boyton, will meet all this full time.
The proposal is to give travel courses extending over a period of several months by which advanced or graduate students may perfect their work in a practical way through study at various foreign points.
Study of this kind would apply particularly to the departments of foreign languages, history, biology, and geology, where the most value in these lines of study.
A similar plan has been successfully carried out at the University of Minnesota.
Don Davis, a former track star at K. U., was one of the officials in the Kansas-Nebraska meet Friday. He is the business manager at Kansas City, Mo.
Dr. C. F. Nelson, of the School of Pharmacy, addressed the Pestle Club last week at the Sigma Chi house on Biological Chemistry.

DEAN SAYRE DAY
The establishing of an annual "Dean Sayre Day" by the students in the School of Pharmacy is a welcome addition to the list of special days which are observed at the University. Probably no man has done more for the special field in which he is interested than has Dean L. E. Sayre for the profession of pharmacy in the state of Kansas. The Dean has been connected with the School of Pharmacy since 1885 and in the years which have passed he has seen graduates of his school fil'l the drug stores of the state. He is a contributor to many of the trade journals of the drug trade, a thorough student and a recognized authority in the Missouri Valley on all matters pharmaceutical.
CAN WAR BE STOPPED?
It remained for a British war officer to give us a new point for consideration in the matter of militarism.
in the matter of militarism.
“If you want to kill forever the itching for war, you must try to make peace a little less respectable, a little more spirited. For all your fine metaphor, a self-acting machine is not such fun to handle as a rifle, nor a guardian's meeting so intoxicating as a bayonet charge. In so many thousands, active service with all its discomforts and horrors, comes in the guise of a welcome relief from the uncongenial slavery of the counting-house and the factory. You must inquire whether desire for adventure, as compared with the desire for domination, does not play a much larger part than you had realized, in that very complex attitude of mind which you describe rather perfunctorily as militarism, and whether you can not devise for us all some kind of a return to nature sufficiently alluring to satiate the nerves in our brains.”
Has he hit upon a truth, or is this merely some more "fine metaphor"? We are constrained to say that the attitude of the peoples of Europe do not seem to bear his statement; that is, if we have gained from the newspapers, any sort of a true conception of their aversion for their present employment.
A REAL MONEY-RAISER
As a money-raiser, it is said, Booker T. Washington stood without a peer. He it was who begged and borrowed the beginnings of Tuskegee Institute, and his persuasive talents made possible the great buildings and spacious grounds of what the Atlanta Constitution has called "the largest and most complete educational plant in the South." The present endowment, which nearly touches the $2,000,000 mark, was raised principally by him, as well as the balance of the $150,000 yearly running expenses that the income from the endowment does not cover. Now that Dr. Washington is gone, the friends of the Institute are faced with the problem that his
personality and earnestness always solved before, and they are not overconfident of equaling his endeavors in fund-raising. Over $3,000,000 must be added to the endowment, and menu-will the running expenses must be paid, and inevitable outlays made for new equipment. Undoubtedly the money will be raised, but not as readily as in Washington's time—Literary Digest.
HEAVEN-GUIDED WAR
Field Marshal von Mackensen, in his recent visit to Constantinople, is reported to have told the Sultan of Turkey that his success was due to divine guidance and the valor of his troops. If the statement is true, and, after reading European war reports for two years it seems probable that it is, it would seem well for the German general to reverse the order of his statement. No doubt the conqueror of Russia does believe that God is guiding him, for purposes of public consumption, at least, but he gives the Turks credit for little intelligence when he asks them to believe that the Lord had more to do with the success of the Russian campaign than the soldiers who did the work.
A LESSON FROM SHAKESPEARE
Shakespeare, according to his biography by Sir Sidney Lee, always lived near a playhouse and kept himself saturated with the atmosphere of the drama. He realized that to make good in his profession as a playwright he had to be on the job at least twelve hours a day. In this fact there is a lesson for every student. The man who would be successful lives the work which he has selected. Time well spent in spare hours will make as many successes as perfect recitations in the class room.

The baptismal ceremonies of one of the north side colored churches attracted a large crowd of watchers to the Kaw river bridge yesterday at noon.

Of course their statements are ox-aggered too. We all believe in the Kansas liquor laws because it is absolutely prohibitive of an evil all recognize. But when it comes to regulating by law the method by which a man must take his tobacco, well, it's peculiar isn't it? The reformers tell the truth that he must prepare juice or a cigar but not a cigarette. Why shouldn't he prescribe the way in which our cooks must prepare the meat?

I'm careless sometimes, Lord, when I'm in town,
But never let 'em say I'm mean or small.
Make me as big and open as the plains,
As honest as the hawse between my knees,
Free as the wind that blows behind the rains,
Free as the hawk that circles down the breeze."

The University is again experiencing one of those sporadic outbursts of righteousness, which comes to it about once a year, and this time the cigar-butt against which the knights of morality are hurling their spears.
Editor Daily Kansen:
We will grant that the cigarette habit is an evil, a sort of mild, negative evil which has been greatly exaggerated by the reformers, but just because it isn't the best thing for the college man, need the reformers try to force him to stop? Haven't the Fourth of July orators from time immemorial come up with the States is a free country, and that personal rights should not be curtailed?
Opinions of the Movies The Moment Before
Unique, interesting and unusually worth while was "The Moment Before" in which Pauline Frederick was featured at the Bowersock Theater last night. In place of the usual succession of chronological events, the time of action jumped from the last part of a woman's life back to the first and then back again to her old age.
A few scenes precede the death of the Duchess and in the moment before her death, which has been forstoid by a Gypsy fortune teller, the whole of her past life flashes before her mind. From the scenes of her former life the time then shifts back to the scene of her death.
"A Moment Before" was written by Israel Zangwell, the well-known author of "The Melting Pot." Retribution is the theme of the piece. In organization the play is good, its ability to hold the attention of the audience is commendable, and the portrayal of the play by Miss Frederick and her supporting cast is excellent. In all it was one of the best films of its kind that has been shown recently in Lawrence.

CAMPUS OPINION
Editor University Kansan:
Communication must be signed as evidence of good faith and written or published without the writer's consent.
Before your paper gives up its attempt to sound out the opinion of women students on the cigarette smoking evil I would like to tell of an experience which I had recently. I was on the way to a class and was accosted by a man friend who said: "If you do not mind my smoking a cigarette I will walk to class with you." I told him that if he wanted to want smoke he could walk behind me. He threw his cigarette away and when I saw him in the afternoon of the same day he said that he had not smoked since morning. Don't you think this is the proper way to handle such a situation? I am in favor of seeing the women of the University assert themselves. By taking a stand you can decrease the earnings of Lawyers tobacco merchants at least one half.

LAST JAYHAWKER SALE ORGANIZE FOR ART
Annuals Not Called for Will Go On General Sale Tomorrow
The final sale of 1916 Jayhawkers will take place tomorrow, according to Ross E. Buenbark. The de luxe editions will be on hand for delivery and may be made partial payments on copies of the Jayhawk must call for them before tomorrow noon, for one-thirty all such books will go on general sale, and the amount paid down will be for last chance. The afternoon will be the last chance to copy of this year's edition of the University annual for those who failed to order a copy. Those who have paid the full amount on their books must call for their copies tomorrow or else get the convenience of the editors later.
The editors of the annual are very much pleased with the sale of the Jayhawkers, and say that they have had calls for about three hundred more books than they are able to supply.
THEN AND NOW
and Bullets Were About the San and Bullets Were Equal
In his response to 'Chancellor Strong's address of welcome to the editors Friday afternoon, W. C. Markham, editor of the Baldwin Ledger, brought out in striking contrast the difference in the reception given newspaper men sixty years ago and that given them today.
"The pleasing words of greeting received today are in vivid contrast to the reception accorded the newspapers in Lawrence just sixty years ago today. On May 5, 1856, the grand jury of this country decided that the two newspapers of Lawrence were public nuisances and demanded that they be destroyed. Within two weeks eight officers killed from Missouri with cannon appeared before the town and carried out the decision of the grand jury. The printing presses were destroyed and the type was thrown into the Kaw.
"But the people did not know that the newspaper always has the last say. Within thirty days from the time that the type was thrown into the fire, they would bullets and cannon balls and Fort Titus and Fort Saunders and other outposts erected for the purpose that Lawrence should not protect herself, were demolished and the newspapers returned from their watery graves.
"They had come back. And the newspapers of Lawrence have been coming back ever since. Time will not permit me to enumerate the names of men who have been taken away in 'back' Katherine through the printing offices of Lawrence but it seems especially fitting that our welcome today should be doubly assured by the appointment yesterday of our former president of Lawrence, the office of police judge of Lawrence. I refer to that fluent Charley Finch.
"With these manifest assurances of our welcome and protection while in the city, I feel sure that the Association will deliver to deliberations with increasing joy."

This will be the slogan of the Kansas Federation of Art formed in Topeka Saturday evening by the men and women of the state who are interested in art. The new federation, whose objective is to promote art in its branches, has branched out to the getting of lectures, art entertainers, and exhibitions, is incorporated with capital of $1,000, divided into one hundred shares of $10 each. So enthusiastic were the fifty people in attendance at the meeting that half of shares were gone at the end of the session; the fifty present each took one share.
ORGANIZATION IS TEMPORARY
The organization is the result of a number of tentative meetings held by the art men and women of the state throughout the last year. The present secretary and will last only until a charter be obtained and all of the shares sold.
The officers elected were: president, Prof. W. A. Griffith, Lawrence; vicepresident, J. E. Jenkins, Wichita; secretary, George M. Stone, Topeka; and treasurer, Scott Hopkins, Topeka. Other men of importance in the art industry were Arthur Dee, artist and editor of the Kauai Farmer, and Carl Smiley, of McPherson who has probably the best art store in the west.
TO ENCOURAGE TEACHING OF ART
TO ENCOURAGE TEACHING OF ART
Professor Griffith said this morning are planning exhibitions of original work each year, although at present we are unable to say just what form these will take. We expect to give them in connection with the state fairs but we shall have to consult the fair organizers to see how we plan one big exhibition each year but this is only tentative as yet. Then, too, there is the matter of art teaching in the public schools that leads to appreciation of art in the individual and that is an important factor in the encouragement of art everywhere, but they are not yet definitely formulated and we cannot tell just what will be done with them yet."

Journalism Fraternity Votes to Retain Secrecy; Honorary Members Initiated
Vernor More returned yesterday from Columbia, Missouri, where he was a delegate to the national convention of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity. Of the twenty-four chapters in the fraternity, four have included delegates from Maine, Louisiana, Washington and California.
"Owing to the big delegation and men from every corner of the United States the grand officers unanimously voted it the best convention in the history of the fraternity," said Moore this morning. "Wisely enough the convention was held during the week at meetin' on Monday and the delegates had an opportunity to hear well known newspaper men from over the country talk shop.
"There was probably little business of general interest. The question of secrecy, which is confronting a number of fraternity conventions at press conferences brought up and the convention voted by a big majority for its retention."
The Missouri chapter took in a number of honorary members last week, one of which was Arthur J. Killick (city Lewis) of the Kansas City Star.
The next national convention will be be at the University of Illinois in Decemeber.
The following national officers were elected: president, Robert Lowry, Austin, Texas; honorary president, Chase S. Osborne, Sault de Sente Chase S. Osborne, Sault de Sente Frank E.

In front of them It is doubt that a little blood can be spattered the absence of cigars after the dainty lunchoon has been served will be overlooked by the smokers who may be present.
But the main purpose of the smoker, beg pardon, mixer, is to interest more persons in the campaign against tobacco which is being carried on. Talks will be made to this end by Chancellor Frank Strong, who doesn't mind it if you don't admit to him and of course he doesn't smoke either. They will probably tell those present how the awful tobacco habit can be kicked out of Lawrence.

Result of Coming Oral Conten at Columbia Proves Hard Nut for Dopesters
TREWEEKE CANNOT JUMP
K. U. Jumper Is On Injured List —Distances Uncertain
Figuring a Missouri-Kansas track meet without having the result hinge on the relay, is like predicting when the war will be over.
So it is that when the K, U. track experts including the coaches, started figuring Friday night at the close of the Nebraska meet over the Kansas prospects in the coming Tiger meet Saturday at Columbia, the same old question came up, who will get the relav and the meet?
While victorious in the Cornhusker dual affair, Kansas showed Coach Hamilton that he will not have the team to pitt against the Tigers in the outdoor meet that he had in March for the Convention Hall indoor battle. Even against the Huskers, the K. U. weaknesses in the hurdles and sprints showed, and although Elliott won the high sticks, there is no doubt that against Missouri Kassas can in either of the two hurdle events. Adding eight more points for the hundred yard dash gives Missouri a twenty-four point lead before K. U. points are even started to be figured.
TREWEEKE GREATLY NEEDED
But the clean sweep of the two-mile, mile, and half, again brings the score back to the starting place leaving nine points for the meet about a fifty-fifty affair.
THEWEKEK GREATLY NEEDED!
With Trewekek able to be in the meet and contribute his first place in the high jump, Kansas might be able to out the relay. But the Wichita boy has a chance at the Jayhawkey chances in the event rest with Rice, the recruit, who won three place against Nebraska with five feet nine inches, but in the broad jump, it will mean that Bob Simpson, Tiger all around star will be able to add another first to his long string.
AHAKE UP IN DISTANCES?
Grutzmacher is sure of a second and with the tired Simpson after three races may be able to grab first, but the coaches are not figuring it as a necessity. And that is what goes into the Jayhawk dope sheet right now.
DOPE FAVORS TIGERS
Taking Tuesday's interclass meet as a criterion, the K. U. distance men are in for a considerable shakeup in Saturday's contest at Columbia. The mass of Friday's teammates from the coaches to use Sproull in the half mile, Grady with Herriott in the mile, and to leave Stateler and Groene to handle the two mile. The shift would keep any man From running more than one race and would be much less demanding for the Tigers are noted for strength in any of the distance events.

Disappearance of David Taylor Explained by Letter
The mystery of the disappearance of David Taylor, on Monday, May 1, has at last been solved. Until yesterday, no word as to his whereabouts had been received by his friends here or by the landlady of his rooming house.
NUMBER 149.
After eating breakfast at his club on May 1, Taylor left Lawrence with only the clothes that he wore—enough for a short stay of a day or two. His roommate received a postal card from Kansas City yesterday stating that Taylor was busy there and had decided to give up his work at the University. The postal officer also replied that he only ordered of clothes. He asked that his trunk and suit cases be sent to the Union Station in Kansas City.
Taylor entered the University at the beginning of this semester.
Fred McNeill, '10E, scoutmaster of the boys of Lawrence, took his troop out to Blue Mound Saturday for an open-air test of their scout craft. The boys were tested in first-aid, fire-building, and other camp tricks. They passed a very good examination, McNeil says.

CELEBRATION NOW
Semi-Centennial Observance to be Postponed One Year Senate Says
The University Senate at a regular meeting yesterday afternoon voted that the semi-centennial celebration would be postponed one year.
The estimated expense of the fifteenth anniversary celebration was placed at $4,000. In view of the financial situation of the University the student was not expedient to spend that amount was the general impression of the members present that the appropriation for the celebration would likely come out of the salaries of the lower rank faculty members. To avoid this, it should be asked that the legislature should be asked to provide propitation at the next session. By this method the University would receive the sanction of the legislature and probably a larger sum of money for the purpose of a celebration.
The delay of a year the Senate thought to be not untimely as the two last world fairs have been one year late. The program for the celéation will include a University Exposition, the largest best music obtainable and many noted speakers. The Chancellor announced the following members as executive committeemen on the Semi-centennial celebration: Profs. A. T. Walker, Alice L. Goetz, H. L. Butler, U. G. Mitchell, Alice L. Goetz, H. L. Butler, J. N. Van der Vries
In regard to the granting of credit in the University for post graduate work in the high school the applicant for credit must first satisfy a list of conditions. The credit will be given upon completion, and correspond to courses in the school of education in which the applicant desires credit. The applicant must satisfactorily pass an examination set by the University before receiving credit. Principals should send in the names and school records for applicants of advanced standing not later than 14, 15, 16, the first semester and not later than the second semester. A matriculation fee of five dollars will be charged.
DISCUSS SHORTENING OF PERIODS
The Chancellor was requested to conduct convocations in arranging plan suggestions for 1917-18, and plan suggested the shortening of all morning class periods so that the time required shall be taken from them all equally. The second plan was to eliminate the 10:30 and 11:30 classes and to adopt the one plan or the other as it should seem admissible to do.
A committee was appointed to consider and report on the question of travel credit and another to consider and report recommendations on a plan if organization and administration of the Student Loan Fund.*

Follow With Scout to Winners' 39 Points
COWGILL
IS STAR MAN
His 100-Yard Dash Time Faster Than Varsity
The Sigma Chis had little trouble in winning the annual Pan-hellenic track meet on McCook Field this year. A much closer score was looked for among the Greeks and a few upsets in dope allowed the Sigs to take a big lead in the final score. They gathered a total of 39 1-3 points while the nearest competitor, Sigma Alpha Epiphany, annexed 27 points.

Sigma Chi ... 39 1-3
Sigma Alpha Epsilon ... 27

Phi Delta Theta ... 3

Phi Gamma Delta ... 1

Cowgill was the star of the meet in the point getting line. Russ captured three firsts in the dashes and counted fifteen points for his squad. His time in the 100 yard dash was unusually fast and faster than, most of the regular varsity meet times. Rustenback was the mainstay of the Sigma Nu aggregation but he was the team's fastest man in every race. He looked to SIGma Nu's fifteen points and help them to place second in the relay.
RUSS COWGILL A STAR
One of the surprises of the meet was Krumback, Delta Tau, who won the half-mile easily in 2:12:4. He proved to be the dark horse of the meet for everyone had conceded the Sig Alpa this race with Murphy as the winner. Murphy was pushed too hard in the quarter mile by the Sigma Chi entry, Baker.
RELAY IN TWO DIVISIONS
The relay was run in two divisions of six teams each regular points were counted in both relays and the races were counted as extra events on the program. A final relay was not necessary under this arrangement. In the first relay, Slats Cone running last for the Kappa Alphas took a good first but he had to work mighty hard. Sigma Nu and Phi Gamma Delta ran an almost dead heat in this event but Rustenback, by swelling his chest to an abnormal capacity, succeeded in crossing the line first. The second team was easy victory for the Sig Alpha and Sigma Chi second. The secret

Conference of Deans Asks State to Build Houses for Girls at All Institutions
WANT WOMEN'S DORMS
The conference of the Kansas Dears of Women, which was held here at the request of Mrs. Eustace Brown, came to a close yesterday. The discussion were merely meant to be helpful and in no way compulsory, as no rules were made. Just one official resolution (the press) and that to the effect that all institutes should be by the state, should work for downsizing women. No definite plans for the pursuance of this policy were made, however.
Convention to be at Agricultural College Next Year

Discussions in the conference were on such general subject as the housing of women students, student social groups and other students dean's responsibilities. The address to the women students which was announced for Tuesday afternoon, was given, but on Monday afternoon, the same group of few students, who could receive word.
"We all feel that this conference has been a great help, and inspiration," said Mrs. May Pierce VanZile, of the Kansas State Agricultural College. "And we appreciate very much Mrs. Brown's invitation. He hope to continue these conferences every year."
the conference will meet next year with Mr. VanZile at the K. S. A. C.

BECKER IN LAST ADDRESS
First Speaker in Thursday Faculty Lectures
In launching this system of faculty lecture, Dean Oln Templin is going on the theory that the University has as with a source of speakers as can be found anywhere and it should be the privilege for the students to hear them occasionally.
"Thursday Afternoon Faculty Lectures" will hereafter be a preeminent institution in the University. Prof. Carl Becker will start the precedent tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 o'clock when he speaks on the subject of "Be候ressor," with a subtitle, "by one whose early training was not of the best."
Prof. R. M. Ogden of the department of psychology will lecture a week from tomorrow, May 25. This will be the last lecture of the year but a complete program will be arranged for next fall. Both professors will go to positions in other universities next year.
"The address of Professor Becker tomorrow afternoon will be the occasion for an expression of the regard in which he is held by his colleagues in the faculty." said Dean Templin this morning.
Professor Becker has been recognized during his years of service here as being one of the most successful teachers in the University. He has also won rather a peculiar position in the faculty. His departure is keenly regretted by his colleagues who are exposed to his expression to their feeling by their presence at this, his last public appearance in the University of Kansas.
This gathering of the faculty will add interest to the occasion for the student body. The subject of Professor Becker's address is "Being A Professor, by One Whose Early Training Was Not of the Best."

The hot weather the past two days has been the cause for the appearance of a new form of hair dressing among the vines - the Valeria Surratt variety.
Whether the innovation originated there is not known but it was a matter of remark that the leaders of the fad so far are from Gamma Phi Beta sorority. At least half a dozen of the members appeared in their classes because they were tightly on their head and although he fad caused a few gasps it was cool for the weaker. And that's what counts these days.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Lawrence, Kansas.
Phone, Bell K. U. 25.
The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than mere printing the news in the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be courteous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all, to be fair; to satisfy the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY, MAY 10, 1916.
THE COUNCIL'S OPPORTUNITY
The newly elected president of the Student Council and the members from the various schools, can, if they are leaders and are industrious, bring the Student Council back to its old place in the undergraduate life of the University.
Students are disguised with the willy-nilly, wishy-washy policy of the past, and are loking forward to greater things, things that will in some way give voice to the latent desire for unified expression, whether the expression be in government, or in some common activity or student institution. Sentiment is ripe—a leader is needed.
First, a co-op bookstore should be the goal. The test made by this year's Council has proved its need. It will require real work if anything tangible is to result, however.
Next year is a legislative year. The University will need money, equipment, buildings to care for the continually increasing number of students. The Council should organize a movement to make the voice of 2,500 students heard all over the state. It will require organization, however, not county clubs whose function ceases when they have met and chosen an executive. And it will take a genuine leader, and not a politician, at the head of the movement.
These are but two of a multitude of things. Many more could be enumerated.
The Council should realize that if it waits for someone to come and urge it to act, to tell it what to do, or to give it authority, it will wait in vain. Responsibilities come to those who assume them. With this comes confidence, and if the Council really does things it will find a unified stude sentiment to back it up.
Billy Sunday says that culture did not save ancient Greece. A downtown newspaper points out that by the same token religion did not save Palestine nor the Jewish race.
LAST STAND OF MEDIAEVALISM
Along about the year 1800 the president of Yale University decided that it was time the institution of which he was head should begin to teach natural science. No college or university in the United States had such instruction at that time.
So great was the protest voiced by the religious people of the country, that he dared not make a public appointment but was forced to name a man for the chair of natural science in secret. Teaching was begun some time later.
Picture the University of Kansas at the present time with no classes in geology, biology, or kindred subjects.
And yet there are those today, after the natural sciences have brought untold and inestimable benefit to mankind, who contend against teachings that all scientific men of the world know are true—the they contend in the name of religion. Religion and science are not enemies, they are allies. The old idea that caused the
A man who will scream out against science from the religious platform today is a detriment to the advance of civilization.
persecution of Gallileo should have been wrapped in its shroud long, long ago.
Religion which retards progress is not religion. It is buncubb.
Yet, in this day of our Lord, May 10, 1916, the light still struggling to break through the clouds of tenacious ignorance.
PULCHRITUDINOUS PROFS
Spring time, dress-up week, moonlight nights, grass and flowers are all having an effect on the University, but it is paradoxical that the men of the faculty should be the first to show the psychological effect in their dress. Youth is supposed to be most responsive to outside influences, most susceptible to suggestion, and anyone but a nature faker would imagine that such a supposition is correct. It isn't.
A careful estimate of percentages will show that more faculty men than students have new suits, more of them carry canes, more of them wear flowers in their button-holes, more of them change ties every day, and more of them have a general fashion-pins appearance. They shape offender, they wear more jewelry, and they are more careful to keep their shoes shined.
Pulchritude and scholasticism go hand in hand—truly this is education up-to-date.

COMMON SENSE AND CIGARETTES
This is in defense of the loathsome cigarette. In all the world of enemies, the poor little thing cries for a defender. There is no institution for the happiness of the human race that is more popular and more beloved, that has fewer friends who are not afraid to come into the open, than the littered trash pile. The worm so accurately given vent to their feelings in this column are voicing popular opinion. I wish to voice the inaudible opinion.
CAMPUS OPINION
Editor of the Daily Kansan:
The cigarette is not as annoying to the fair maidens as some of our friends state. There is a very small percent of us that have not been reared in the fumes of father's "twowr" cigar, and we have thought nothing of it. We have rave at the smoke of a delicate cigarette that compares to father's cigar, as does the odor of mint to boiling cabbage and onions combined. The only time that the average woman ever got sick from the smoke of a cigarette
There are some women who do find the smoke of tobacco unpleasant. I have noticed that few of them must tell to their men friends. There are not a dozen men on the Hill who will not stop smoking in a girl's presence if requested. If smoke makes a woman sick she has every right to object to it. If the objecting causes her to lose that particular man friend, she is suffering no great loss. A man who has been refused to refrain from smoking in her presence when she has a good reason for wishing him to be not worth enduring.
was the time that she sneaked into the bath room and tried out the Fat-Tiger bath.
But the truth of the matter is this, try it out on your sweet heart and your room mate and see if they do not agree with me. The average girl wonders why she always gets the please and never gives the matter a thought. They do not care down in their hearts. There are many of us that enjoy the scent of a good cigar wafted to us upon the evening breeze as much as the smoker himself. To many of us the scent of tobacco is all we like, but the boys on the north in the evening.
I do not wish to defend smoking. I think it is an extravagant habit and wastes a dad of father's money that could be used at home on mother very handily. But I do not object any more to boys smoking than I do to girls spending small fortunes for cokes and sundaes.
I have voiced the truth that lies in the heart of ninety-nine per cent of us. It is only the style to "bless out" cigarettes.
But we hear harangues against smoking, and we get the feeling some how that nice girls hate tobacco, that it is a smirch upon us because we do not care. We want the men we know to smoke, but they allow them to smoke in peace, they will think that we are not the right sort of girls. And so we raise a cry and talk against it. And the truth of the whole matter lies in the fact that many people obey to smoke to prove our good breeding and tender maidenhood.

When DePauw University dedicated a new modern gymnasium recently the day was declared a holiday. The school's campus is also named as the Bowman Memorial gymnasium.
A botanical library and herbarium valued at $35,000, has been presented to Notre Dame University by Professor Green, a member of the faculty. The library, consisting of 5,000 volumes, is one of the largest of its kind in the west. The herbarium comprises 150,000 plants.
It is a lamentable and inexcusable fact that the managers of this year's Jayhawkwer departed from the time-honored and customary arrangements of fraternities. They are apparently placed without rhyme or reason, except that in one instance there is good reason to suspect that priority was given because of personal preference.
Editor Daily Kansan:
It has been the custom in Kansas, as well as in other universities, to arrange fraternities in the year book in order of their foundation in the institution. It is hoped that the plan will be followed here in the future.

Students who, in the course of their rambles about the campus in spring time, spend much of their time in searching for four-leaf clovers, would be rather impressed with their past achievements and tradition from which the practice springs. Early Buddist书 show that it was generally conceded that trees had souls and therefore could not be lawfully injured. However there were those who took the opposite view and arrose over the question ended in a victory for those of the latter belief. These people who choose such principles, instead of political questions, as matters for public controversy were the ones who originated the idea that clover was a mystic plant and that the destiny of those persons who took sufficient interest in it to place the four leaf plants in their shoes.

SHAKESPEAR POPULAR
Students in Colleges and Universities Should Know Him Better
MONTH'S WORK EXTENSIVE
Many Have Celebrated The Memorial Season
The school and college are the natural conservators of Shakespearean culture says Richard Burton of the University of Minnesota in a recent issue of the Bellman. In them, if anywhere, folk in the formative period should get sufficient acquaintance with the master expressionist of the big playwright, which shall be fed and fostered into a habit of later life. This is a great responsibility, all the greater because, in the United States, it is not shared by the home. In the right sort of home, of course, there should be such co-operation with institutions of learning—a horrid phrase—in this matter of making the young familiar with the poet-dramatistic attitude toward him, that the business of school and college and university would be mostly supplementary and more definitely directive than stimulative.
But we cannot assume the right sort of home in America. The hordes of young people who come to our "seats of learning," so called to them, sit down leisurely in them to sit down leisurely to do anything, are simply barbarians in respect of literary training and aptitude, and Shakespeare to them is a great name only in the sense that he is a great man or an incubus of examination tests.
HARD TO TEACH APPECIATION
The school and college, therefore, have the hard job of leading the young up to grace with regard to an appraisal of life in the poet-dramatist, reveler of the human heart, might master of life and letters. And this article essays another hard job: to ask in a spirit of sweet reasonableness, What is being accomplished? And to answer it in the interests of education, of Shakespeare, of truth, of St. Bernardius himself has told us will, though cognious to earth, rise again.
Let us begin with a burst of honesty, and say that offerer the teacher of literature, with mighty searchings of heart, wonders if all his attempts to awaken love for the so-called classics of literature will yield success. It is positively astonishing how many mature people one meets who declare with every appearance of sincerity, and not infrequently with heat, that to this day the mere mention of Milton or Shakespeare sicken them and only receive praise for their attraction offered by those hours was carefully eliminated by the misdirected efforts of some wise Ph. D. to elucidate the mysteries. The plain truth is that the greatest poet of the race is so associated in many minds with dull linguistic exercises, with contempt and beauty that a chief enjoyment of post-scholastic or post-academic years lies in the fact that you need never touch him or go near him again. I am not exaggerating at all. Delherrately do I assert myself for a writer like Shakespeare because of the way he has been presented in the days of schooling, early or late.
DUE TO TEACHING METHODS
The reason for this deplorable result is of somewhat complex nature. In the first place, it is due as likely as not to the fact that he is a man and that he is so muddy a medium as to obscure the shining virtues of his subject,—perhaps obliterate them totally. Why, in heaven's name, should you expect the young person to warm up to a writer of whom he hears from a professor with a squeaky voice and a dry, restricted personality whose interest in the subject lasts longer than the latter is an excuse for the airing of philological knowledge? A comprehensive, interpretive treatment of Shakespeare, and by this I mean that which gives a clear general view of his plays and a generous, rapid reading of a sufficient number of them to show the various aspects of his power, is much more often. More often, the study is confined to a play or so, or even to one, in the interests of that fetish "intensive study"; and the progress is so crabble, tortuous, that all sense of unity is lost, and the
teacher drones along, stopping an unconceiving time at one scene. By the time the drama has been waded in, the audience is reached, interest has died still-born somewhere in the first act. The study is regarded as less drama than letters, and less letters than language; thematic value is the last thing considered.
SHOULD READ OR STAGE PLAY
The teacher may not have the slightest idea of what the dramatic really is, and there is a probability he quite lacks the ability to convey drama well. He is often limited by the amount of dramatic expression—but what of that? He has a Ph.D., and all is well. Our false academic ideals have so discouraged what is most valuable and precious in the understanding of Shakespeare (and of all literature) in this lesson. He must be a vital, warm reading of a play straight through—of all methods the one surest to win admiration for the poet-playwright and implant a permanent love for him in the human heart—would be looked at askance by the merely reeling attention, in fact, horrible dicta, as one nothing more than an elocationist. And yet, if in school and college, and especially in the latter, real interpreters of the play were to read them, show them as living organisms, as units of art, if the great writer was interested in how it should then so discussed as to relate them to the dramas were presented by the students on a stage. I venture to say that all thus instructed would go into life genuine friends of the dramas were presented merely knowing that he ought to be in their library, but caught often with his books in hand. Instead, he is killed for them by those twin nuances, pedantry and pedagogy: the former, a misplaced parade of useless learning, the latter, a foolish assumption; the former, the latter, substituted in teaching for the only thing of real moment—personality in the teacher.
TEXT BOOKS STIFLE THE POET
Accessory to this crime of stifling Shakespeare is the textbook. The eager commercial instincts of publishers are responsible for the majority of all such manuals, which, so far from helping the appreciation of the master, distort his true image and create an erroneous impression of him. He glosses, irrelevant and trifling facts are foot-noted, and instead of inspiration, information rules supreme. In books of the kind for school use, the integrity of the page is ruined by placing alleged helps in the way of notes at the bottom of the page, and masterizing words in the body of the text in order that you may know that light awaits you below! Of course, any synthetic enjoyment of poetry is out of the question under such circumstances. There are just two things you can accomplish, so pull so should be expected to do: commit suicide, or, and better, murder the instructor.
As a generalization, textbooks cumber the earth; and as to those who make them, such manuals are the refuge of second-class minds. The honourable exceptions are as few as hens' teeth.
ARE GRADES RESPONSABLE
Have you ever tried to or two myself, I take a special, naive and vicious pleasure in making the statement. Let one who is partieces criminis say it: Shakespeare has been well-nigh edited out of existence. But furthermore, I believe that, back of me as an adult, I have serious question whether literature should be taught in such a way as to associate it with tasks and tests; with the mechanism of marks and the mental forcing-house of examinations?
ARE GRADES RESPONSIBLE
A writer like Shakespeare is for joy, stimulation, or he is not hard. And how can the mood for the appreciation of poetry be produced if the study be shaped toward the one inflexible goat, who cannot answer? So to conduct what should be a delightful indoctrination in life expressed in terms of power and beauty is to use Shakespeare for a base, utilitarian end, and in all likelihood to inhibit the good which might have caused him. The pupil reads some great passage because he must, perhaps commits it to memory because he must, or uses a dictionary to look up the etymological history of the words it includes—again because he must. But the student is uninteresting and unimportant facts, promptly and gleefully to be forgotten the next day—when he
should have been trembling with Hamlet at the ghost's advent, or weeping with Cordelia over the body of Lear, or agow with the gallant love-making of Orlando in the leafy cottage, and to see, this losing the forest for the leaves, this putting the cart before the horse, this substitution of jejune and meaningless intellectualism for the charm of music, the thrill of situations, the sense of fun and struggle. A newspaper boy in the top gallery can get much of what Shakespeare offers as he follows with intense interest the trial of Shylock, where a college class of young men, equipped with all the skills they must be and submerged in a library of criticism, miss anything entirely.
A BRIGHTER DAY IS DAWNING
Shakespeare is for the masses just as truly as the classes; he applauds an application to the school class gives a fresh meaning to the words. At times, I am almost inclined to feel that it would be better if all formal literary study were confined to good writers who were below the greatest, leaving the confessed masters untainted by the cheap headwork and unilluminated paving of medicine. Talks he makes, the principles acquired in this fashion, let the pupil be then turned on to Shakespeare, to browse at his own sweet will; not driven to liking a thing, but allowed to find out for himself, and take the initiative in so doing. That largely explains the anemic nature of much literary teaching—the teacher does not know of waving kind), the scholar not enough. Exaggeration in all this? Maybe a little; but exaggeration is but the italics of argument, if you please.
A BRIGHTER DAY IS DAWNING
There is a brighter side to which I turn from these rather lugubrious reflections, glad to present it; it often is lugubrious to tell the truth about anything! A change for the better in the teaching of literature in general and of Shakespeare in particular has begun. For one thing, there is more sympathy to the text, with vital real elements than the text, either by the regular instructor, or by some trained person who is brought in from outside for the purpose. The difference between elocation and interpretation is coming to be understood.
Again, Shakespeare is now in wideawake institutions coming to be appreciated, not only as a poet and thinker, but as an Elizabethan playwright; and his poetry is studied as drama, best to be enjoyed when it is frankly approached as such. In this attitude he draws from this attitude the pupil is having it suggested to him that he should lose no opportunity to see a Shakespeare play acted in a theater, thereby supplementing the analytical process of the classroom with that free and happy contact with an author who did not make plays to be read primarily, as is proved by his indifference to publication, but to be played too often or poorly that the very boy plays something played.
Closely connected with this encouragement to attend the playhouse, and to get into touch with Shakespeare as he really is, may be found the teacher's habit of helping the student in school and college to act in Shakespearean productions, and so penetrate into the innermost secret of the bard's power and passion; with indentification in this way with his characters, his thought and feeling expressed in action and scene, is ten times greater than that any possible analytic, intellectual work that may be done with him. In good schools all over the land now, no year is let pass without some such participation of teachers and students in Shakespeare production; and no self-respecting college student may be left through its English department, fails to regard such Shakespeare attention as a serious and important part of its literary activity.
TERCENTENARY MAY BE GOOD
It would be appalling to give performances over the country in this memorial month in Shakespeare annals. It is conceivable that, in an explainable reaction from too little Shakespeare in this practical way, we shall have him too much. But that the residuum of good will be decided, through the popularization of the post-dramatist, there can be no reasonable doubt. it will lead to first-hand contact, vital co-operation, and the path of life as the past has not shown. Personally, I look hopefully forward to a day not far distant when visiting interperters of Shakespeare will be recognized, regular part of Shakespeare culture as provided for school and college. After the more intellectual labor of the classroom, such persons will come like a waft of spring to breathe on the bones of analysis and make the instruction desert blossom like the rose of Sharon. And if a pupil be called on from his seat to read Hamlet's soliloquy, he will not approach the task in the spirit of a galley slave, and speak the lines as if he were afraid to let his lips come into contact with them, but chant them, sing them, pass them might before was Hamlet in the play, or Horatio, or Laertes, and so can understand the situation.
TERCENTENARY MAY DO GOOD
during the present Tercentenary Celebration of Shakespeare, however crude the attempts hither and yon to reproduce something of the glamour and grace of this master stage-poeet, it all has one supreme merit; it is the ability to put himself in putting him where he belongs, in the theatre, instead of chaining him to the instructor's desk and asking thousands on thousands of young people to seize the fact that three hundred years ago William Shakespeare, the best playwright and to get inspiration from it, not by committing to memory the dates of his birth and death, but by witnessing his mighty dramas, playing in them, and so getting into their blood as well as their brain the music of his message and the magic of his vision. The playwright should restore him to the democratic masses; it is the right way also to vitalize sim in school and college.

BRING IT BACK TO ME
W. H. TWENHOFEL
Near the mouth of the Elba river off the coast of Germany is the Island of Helgoland. Through the attack of waves this island is gradually being washed away, having decreased from a circumference of one hundred and thirty miles in the water to 600. Upon this geological fact the Geology Society of America has built the song which follows:
The Germans once bought them an isk-

They called the place "Helioland," but the island waddened into the ocean. But the people of Helioland

K. U. MINERS FIRST TO HAVE NATIONAL AFFILIATION
Some eight years ago, C.M. Young, then Associate Professor of Mining, having an enquiring turn of mind, began to ask himself, and Professor Haworth, why the miners should not have a society connected with the American Institute of Mining Engineers, on the same plan that other engineering societies were organized at K. U. Professor Haworth echoing the sentiment of "Why not?" Professor Young, him a mentor, corresponded with the proper authorities of the institute and obtained their concurrence in the plan. The result was that the idea of having affiliated student societies of the A. I. M. E. was adopted in the latter organization.
The K. U, student society was the first affiliated society to be organized in the world. It was organized with membership compulsory on upper classmen. Since then the membership extinct, except for phoromores. Officers are elected yearly.
The scheme was widely and favor-
able commented on in the mining
press.
The plan inaugurated here has spread widely and rapidly, all the mining schools of the country of any prominence having affiliated societies. They report their proceedings. The committee is E. M. E., and the committee in charge of this branch of the latter's activities gets these reports together in the form of
a bulletin and sends a copy to every member society.
This plan has been the means of much improvement in, and cooperations, as well as putting the men in touch with the biggest organization of mining engineers in the country, several years before they would orchard their own land, in contact with it. Which in itself is an enormous advantage to a student about to start out in his life work, when that work is mining.
Moreover, this organization is the means of getting many men noted in the mining world to address the students on live questions of the profession. Students and faculty men also address the society. Open discussion follows the reading of a paper.
The officers are; president, L. E. cole; vice president, L. E. Fisk; secretas, S. F. Kelly. Meetings are held every Wednesday at 4:30 in Haworth Hall. Twice a month they meet in conjunction with the Geology club. Non-attendance results in non-graduation.

PRICE OF HAIR CUTS
RAISED IN KANSAS CITY
The barber shops in Kansas City have decided to raise the price of haircuts to thirty-five cents. The action is based upon the claim that soap, hair restorer and laundry work have risen in price lately. Some students who have their hair cut when they make a trip to the city are speculating the new price will last as long as it did in Lawrence.

This is an Age of Co-operation
One often hears—"Community Building"—"Pull Together"—"Civic Loyalty"—
But few know the real meaning of the words.
They deal concretely in dollars and cents.
For an admirable example of co-operation—business-like, hearty pulling together with a real vision—take the four issues of the University Daily Kansan last week.
Realizing that the men on the paper were exerting special effort to send the visiting editors away from Lawrence in good spirits and with a kindly feeling towards the town and the University, Lawrence merchants doubled up on their advertising.
They did not expect to invest three dollars on any certain day and have the whole town flocking to their store the following day to buy them out. They saw into the future. They realized that a little money spent for the good-will of an editor would mean that he would say some kind thing about Lawrence and K. U. They knew that a few kind words in this connection might bring ten students—or maybe a couple of families—to Lawrence next year or the year following.
A certain amount of the advertising in the Kansan is "good-will" advertising. But the fact that the most reputable firms in the United States spend thousands annually in like manner is sufficient proof that it pays in dollars and cents.
And the increase in advertising in the University Daily Kansan is sufficient proof that Lawrence business men look on the paper as a good medium.

ADVICE FOR SWIMMERS
"Common Sense Is the Greatest Factor in the Water," Says Dr. Naismith
With the opening of Potter's Lake and the adjournment of many of the men to the river, comes the advisability of a few rules for governing one's importance in the water. Of prime importance, according to Dr. James Naismith, is the learning to swim or float sufficiently to keep one's head out of the water for an indefinite time. If one can do this he can wait until he has overcome the pains that follow an accidental circumstance in the water, and then he can call for help or approach some floating object with a great deal more certainty than he can by floundering and fighting in the water.
Here are a few rules, Dr. Naismith adds:
Do not go in soon after meals. A laps of two hours is a good mini-
Do not sit on the bank to cool off before taking the plunge. Go in while the blood is going at a good rate. Go in head first, and no at a toe at
Go in head first, and not a toe at a time.
Do not take a swim in the evening
when the air is chilling and the water
warns.
Breathe through the mouth in the water. You can spit the water out of your mouth but in your nose it strangles you.
As soon as a feeling of tiredness comes, rest. This is necessary at the first sign of exhaustion.
In an early-season endurance test keep near the bank. It takes as much endurance to swim around the pool as it does to swim across it.
Learn to swim on your back and to float.
Don't be ashamed to help for help if it is necessary, but don't make a big fuss about it. And don't, above all asks, ask for help as a form of joke.
As an after thought, Dr. Naismith said: "I wish I could emphasize for the fellows that go to the river, that when they are washed down below the shallow sand bottom to a step-off, they should not try to fight straight back up-stream but should angle in toward the bank. The cupboard is filled with sand up. This is of the greatest importance, and yet I have never been able to get one of the fellows to do this after they had blown-up.
"The greatest factors in the water, however, is experience and common sense."
AND MRS. ROBIN DOES ALL THE WORK.
Birds Start Housekeeping.
Within an arm's reach of an open window facing west from the east wing of Marvin Hall, Mrs. Robin, with the aid of the Mr. Robin built a nest of brass, weeds, sticks, strings and mud. The nest is built on the steel fire escape and is even with the first floor, almost within reach of the ground.
The work of building the nest was finished this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Robin brought in the last pieces of string and pieces of soft grass to make the inside of the nest comfortable. Mrs. Robin placed her bit of string on a table, took a piece of string from Mr. Robin and then with a few demonstrations which he seemed to understand very well, she chased him away.
Left to put the finishing touches on the nest Mrs. Robin put in about ten minutes rearranging the carefully placed lining of the new home and then came the most interesting process of all. Mrs. Robin carefully set herself in the nest, and began to press it into shape. She would settle herself deep into the nest, squirt ruffle her feathers, turn the crown or twice to make theinish uniform on all sides, and then climb out to look over her work. For early an hour she squirmed about and pressed her breast into the nest, then she took another look and flew away.
two surveyed proudly. Mrs. Robin settled herself on the nest, and Mr. Robin found a perch for himself on a nearby tree, swelled out his chest and sang a robin song as he boasted that he had built the nest all by himself.
And so Mr. and Mrs. Robin have started in spring housekeeping within sight from a dozen windows, and within reach of one. She turns her back to the open window where professors and students peep out at her.
It was only a few minutes until she returned with Mr. Robin, and the
SOME BUILDING--FRASER
SAYS THE STATISTICS FIEND
Did you ever stop to think of the amount of rock, wood, glass and cement used in the construction of Fraser Hall?
The building has 60,970 square feet of floor space, which would furnish standing room for more people than there are in Topeka. If the floor space were divided into blocks one block would be in front of the other block touching the one next to it, the line would extend to a distance of approximately eleven and one-half miles.
There are 302 windows in Fraser which have an area of something like 5,500 square feet of glass, which would more than cover the largest green house in the city. There are also windows in the manufacture of eye glasses similar to some of those sold by peddlers, there would be glass enough for over 260,000 nairs.
If a student should start from the basement floor and walk up the steps to the roof of Fraser, he would climb 181 steps. If he were walking on the street and his stride measured 30 steps, then he would cover a distance of 150 yards. A student having one class day on the third floor of Fraser, climbs 270 steps a week in order to attend his class, providing he attends five times a week. He also covers the 9,720 steps to attend this one class providing he takes the same study both semesters or another one on the third floor.

AGREE WITH GOMPERS
K.U. Professors Say With Union Leader That Labor Is Not a Commodity
Samuel Gompers of the American Federation of Labor said in a recent interview that labor is not a commodity and this raised certain questions in the minds of some students of economics. The matter was taken up with Prof. H. A. Millis and Prof. F. J. Gompers, although the subject bears some modifications and explanations.
Professor Millis said: "Labor is not a commodity taking that term in its strictest sense although it is often much easier to speak of it as such and I often do so after explaining to my class the exact significance that I attach to the term. Labor cannot be separated from the fact that you cannot speak of an individual as he might of a piece of merchandise. Neither are we working primarily for profit, but for the good of mankind, and if we are doing this we cannot speak of mankind as a commodity.
LABOR ORGANIZATION AIDS ADJUSTMENT Many people confuse the individual and the power that he can exert and object to organization of labor on the job. Many people confuse supply and demand it makes for unnatural processes. They believe that supply and demand will straighten things out and they will eventually but organization and governmental interference make living more bearable. Professor Blackmar, "the labor is not a commodity," said Professor Blackmar, "a man cannot be separated from his labor and neither he nor his labor is merchandise or power in the sense that steam or an engine must operate." The old slave might have been spoken of as a commodity, but while I am a slave to my desk as long as I am in the employ of the University, I do not have to stay at that
We Are, We Are, We Are, We Are, We Are the K. U. Laws
PROFESSOR BLACKMAR AGREES "I can run away and I can choose other occupations. It is just because of that that I am not a commodity. You can choose of twenty per cent more occupations than your father could and he of twenty per cent more. You are getting further and further away from being the commodity that it once might have been.

REVIVE STUDENT UNION
NUMBER 150.
Among Plans of Herriott for New Student Council for Next Year
WANT STUDENT RESPECT
"To put the Men's Student Council in a position of responsibility and respect should be the biggest aim of the Council for the coming year," said Junk Herriott, president-elect of the Council for the coming year.
Good Will and Co-operation Necessary if Council is to Succeed
"When the Council lost its disciplinary power and made a failure of the Student Union it lost a lot of respect from the student body and the faculty, but there is no reason why we should allow this. The Council for the past year deserves a great deal of credit for its work in the establishment of the book exchange and the Co-op store for next year, the paying off of the old Coun-cles, and its active interest in all questions of interest, to the school and the state.
"As president of the Council for the coming year I have no definite policies that I want to carry out, except that I will stand behind what ever I understand to be the will of the students of the University. I hesitate to commit myself on the question of Military Training in the University; the students are in favor of such courses and are in pulsory or elective, the Council will do all that is within its power to bring these things about.
"We will follow the financial policy of last year's Council, not incurring any debts that we cannot pay for out of regular funds, and keeping a close check on receipts and expenditures. We hope to do as well as this year's council, and come out with a balance in the bank at the end of the year.
"We will work with the end in view of establishing a real Student Union at the city level and I am sure that every member of the council feels the responsibility which devolves upon him as one of a body which is being watched closely by the University citizens of the state at large. If the Council is a success we can get practically everything for the University which it needs. If it is a failure, both the Council and the University will be subject of ridicule over the whole state.
"With one successful year behind us, we are going to try and have another even more successful year, and all my efforts will be bent towards making the Student Council what it be in the University of Kansas."

ELM WORMS ROUTE
FAIR GRECIAN DANCERS
ELM WORMS ROUTE
Because of the small black worms that swing in Titania-like fashion from the trees and stroll over the golf links, the rehearsals of the Grecian Maids was interrupted several times as she went through her places, when a maid discovered that a worm had mistaken her for a part of the natural scenery of the links.
W.S.G.A.TO HAVE HOUSE
May Fete Funds to go Towards Establishment of New
Home
A co-operative house for young women of the University of Kansas is one plan that the W. S. G. A. has under way and it hopes to have such an institution in readiness for the coming term.
The W. S, G. A. will furnish a house and a chaperon; the members of the house will do all of the work and share any other expenses.
This movement is a new one at K U, but at some other universities it has been a decided success. More young women could attend the University if expenses were lightened and it has been proven in the case of the Young Men's Co-operative Club at 1220 Ohio that co-operation is a success.
The funds from the May Fete will go toward helping establish this new

TO MEET TIGERS TODAY
Jayhawker Baseball Team Columbia for Two-Game Series
Series
MISSOURI GOING STRONG
With Twelve Straight Victories Schultze's Men are Optimistic
The first of a two-game baseball series with Missouri will be played on the Rollins Field in Columbia this afternoon. The Kansas squad, twelve strong, left Lawrence yesterday morning for the Tiger town and spent a whole day resting before the conference with the Missouriians this afternoon.
The Tigers have had great success so far this year in their games. Twelve straight games added to the list of victories have made the Missourians so confident that they are coming back championship pennant adorning the southwest corner of Rothwell Gymnasium. In pitching, hitting and other departments, they are strong and the writers of the dope in the Missouri papers can see nothing but the Missourians all this season.
George Smee is slated to start the series for Kansas this afternoon. This star pitcher has been pitching wonton-shaped passes that of any man on the team. He will be in the game at left field whether he gets into the box or not. Red Craig will face the Tigers in the second game and McCarty is reasonably sure that the mighty Gluten and Willow will fall before the Jayhawk fight.
By Cargill Sproull
But the Tigers need not get greatly exaggerated as to their chances for victories over Kansas for they are liable to get badly left. The twelve games which they have won include only four conference games while Kansas has won an equal number of conference battles.
The same teams will play tomorrow afternoon but the baseball squad will not return immediately to Lawrence. Most of the players will remain over for the track meet which starts Saturday morning at 10:30. Then the team will play tomorrow together Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning.
The baseball squad which took the trip to Missouri yesterday morning was composed of the following regulators: Capt. Wandel, Smee, Craig, Taylor, Chase, Gibbens, Wood, Chinery. Poier, King.
HARTSHORN TO MEXICO
Pharmic Student Ordered to Join Militia
Obart V. Hartshorn, a junior in the School of Pharmacy, left this morning for the Mexican border where he will patrol duty as a member of the militia of New Mexico. He received two telegrams yesterday ordering him to report immediately to his company at Carlsbad, New Mexico.
The first telegram arrived yesterday morning ordering Hartshorn to be in readiness for further commands. Following it, the second one was issued shortly after noon ordering him to Carlsbad. The messages were signed by W. M. Dean, commander of the militia at that place. As soon as the company is organized, it will go on a mission. E. Sayre will recommend to his professors that Hartshorn's credits be allowed.
This followed an order issued by President Woodrow Wilson Tuesday calling the militia of New Mexico, Texas and Arizona. It is the first time since the Spanish-American War that the state militia has been ordered out to assist the regular army in an international affair.
SIXTY PHARMICS WILL
TAKE TRIP TO K. C
Sixty Pharmies will start to Kansas City on the six-forty train next Tuesday morning. The purpose of the trip is to visit various manufacturing houses. They will attend the Kansas City International Association, which is meeting in Kansas City, Kansas. They will also be entertained at a banquet at the Harvey House in the evening, followed by a boat ride up the Missouri river.
The youngest member of the graduating class this year is Henry N. Tihen, of Andale, who will receive an E. deg., degree from the College of the Phi Beta Pi, and a member of the Phi Beta Pi, and the Phi Beta Kappa fraternities. Mr. Tihen was born at Andale August 10, 1896, and graduated from the high school there in 1913. He was admitted to college only when he became knee trousers when he first came to the University.
Misses Emma Hyde and Lucy Olcott, who have been guests of Prof. and Mrs. U. G. Mitchell, have returned to their home in Kansas City.
WANTSMOKINGSTOPPED
Anti-Cigs Appeal to Senate Go After Tobacco Users Hard
GIVE McKEEVER A PUFF
In Resolutions They Say C. W Man Isn't Appreciated Here
Enter another guardian of the innocence of the men of this University
Fearing a joy-ride to the eternal bow-wows on the part of the moral perverses around Mount Oread who vainly carry around burning rolls of tobacco in their mouths and blow ill-smelling clouds of smoke which pollute the fine ozone overhead and offend the nostrils of the tiny birds flying above, the Anti-Cigs, rising in the hills where the evils of tobacco, appeal to the University Senate to save the poor young men from the tobacco habit.
ANTI-CIG LOGIC
There is nothing, the Anti-Cigs believe, which is so harmful to the public welfare as for a man to smoke a cigarette. Doesn't everyone know that tobacco causes cancer? Of course they all eat bread and butter too, but that is a different matter. They all use tobacco therefore it is wrong to use tobacco, ergo, the fair name of the University of Kansas is the University of Mt. Vernon by the foul users of this weed.
UNGRATEFUL TO MCKEEVER
Following are the resolutions presented in this session:
It might be explained that the "state board of welfare" which is advancing the "finer principles" which are received so ungratefully by the students of university is William A. McKeever, who is known as the director of child welfare.
Can anyone resist the logic of the Anti-Ciga?
"Wheres, The University Senate has been entrusted with the enforcement of all disciplinary rules and regulations, and, up to the present time, no action has been taken in violations of these, no action has been taken, so far as we are aware; and
THE RESOLUTIONS
"Whereas, the finer principles advanced and supported by the State Board of Welfare, a board with its headquarters on our own campus, have been derided and made ineffective," she wrote. "A portion unmindful of the reputation given the University by their thoughtlessness; and
"Whereas, In open and flagrant violation, on the one hand of a statute of the State of Kansas, and on the other of an ordinance of the City of Lawrence, students still in their minority schools have access to tobacco, both on the campus of the University and on the public highways of this city.
"Therefore, be it resolved that we the members of the K. U. Anti-Cigarette League, desiring not only to impose restrictions on themselves, but further to improve the reputation of the University throughout the state, do respectfully urge the University Senate that they take action to enforce the disciplinary rules now existing."
"Passed by the K. U. Anti-Cigar ette League, May 8, 1916.

RE-ELECT MISS GITTENS
Y. W. C. A. Secretary Chosen Again for Next Year Yesterday
Miss Ann E. Gittins was re-elected secretary of the University Young Women's Christian Association, at a meeting of the Association, yesterday afternoon.
That the two years that Miss Gittins has been in the work have been successful in the Association is shown in Figure 10.1. The weekly meetings has increased from an average of 83 persons to an average of 150. Also the financial status of the Association is in a better condition than ever before. The budget of $1575 and a surplus of $225 for financing of the new year have been raised.

DELUXE COPIES TOMORROW
Fine Edition of Jayhawker Ready for Distribution
The de luxe editions of the 1916 Jayhawker are at last in town according to Manager Ross E. Busenstein and manager Tommy Friday from 11:20 to 12:30. The editors are anxious that all those who have any business to straighten up with the management will call at this time. Be be the center of tomorrow's activity.
Those who have seen the de luxe editions say that they are the finest books that have ever appeared at the university. The cover is green morocco with a lining of silk. These books are only secured by special order.
The editors announce that there are absolutely no more Jayhawkers to be had' and that only those who have paid for their books can secure them. All those who have books coming to them must call tomorrow for them or find the editors when they do want them.
The paddle welding preclivities of the strong-arm firm of Kabler, Reedy & Co. ran unabetted during the past week. A well-behaved first year man fell victim to their activities at the Interscolastic track meet Saturday and it is reported that they directed their paddles against certain bodies which are not generally known as posterior. But then freshmen should learn to keep their hans is out of danger, say the aggressors.
Katherine Reding, '18 College, has decided that white shoes will not do at all for hikes. She got stuck in the mud Saturday afternoon while on a geology research trip, and came out of the shoes as black as any on the road.

GRAD FOR PRESIDENT
New York Times Picks Herbert S. Hadley, A. B. 1882 as The Man
A COMPROMISE CANDIDATE
Republicans Will Split on Roose
velt and Kansan Will be chosen
The next candidate on the Republican ticket for president will in all probability be Ex-Gov. Herbert Haddad, a former Republican title written in the Sunday magazine section of the New York Times. Mr. Hadley attended K. U. and graduated from New York University afterwards attended Northwestern University getting a degree in law.
The New York writer picks Hadley as a compromise candidate between the Progressive and standup elements of the party. He figures that all the Roosevelt strength will go to Donald Trump, but others see that they cannot nominate Root or Hughes their support will be also turned to Mr. Hadley.
In the convention of 1912 in which the big steal occurred he was chairman of the convention. He criticized the leaders but refused to leave the party. Hs has always taken a good deal of interest in the University and the first game ever played on McCook between K. U. and Missouri.
Another former K. U. student is destined to play an important part in the Republican convention which meets on June 9 in Chicago. This man is Senator William E. Borah of Idaho. He is a progressive Republican and he works with students who under the direction of J. P. Davison of the J. P. Morgan and Co. interests are trying to put across the election of either Hughes or Root.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of your own university, than more printing, further research or obtaining University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be dignified; to be humorous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to understand, and to justify the students of the University.
THURSDAY,' MAY 11, 1916
THE PLACE OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN
Militant feminism, overturning time-honored conventions and trampling the platitudes of the philosophers in the dust, is establishing itself in American universities. Like most revolutionary movements the start has been made in the great middle west, where women already have thrown off many worn-out bonds, and it will surely spread to the schools of the east. The college woman is coming to her own.
Witness the condition during the present school year at the University of Kansas. A few weeks ago we elected a woman as College Day speaker from the largest school in the University. Before that a woman had held sway as editor-in-chief of the Daily Kansan and women have been on the board every year for the last half decade. The Phi Beta Kappa society elected three times as many women as men this year. A woman is head of the Quill Club, many women are holding class offices, and women are active in the direction of the dramatic organizations. The University of Missouri recently elected a woman to the board which controls the University Daily Missourian and women are active in all activities at the Tiger school.
It may seem far-fetched to say that the next decade may see a woman as president of the College, or that we will have a mixed student council with a woman as president, but such a condition is entirely probable. Woman cheer-leaders, women on the athletic board and women in every school activity where they are possibly eligible we'll see them all in the coming years.
Encouraged by the advent of the "denutured Dutch lunch," and the "smokeless smoker," some of the milita boys are beginning to hope for a peaceful war.
NEW SOURCE OF REVENUE
Save your waste paper.
With the great advance in price of all print paper there has been a correspondingly higher price paid by paper mills for all scrap paper. The newspapers the world over have felt the effects of the war in more ways than one. Before the year had passed, many newspapers were forced to use news print paper that had not been whitened by chemicals. Lately many papers have found it difficult to be assured of a sufficient supply of print paper at all.
One University organization has been accustomed to save all tinfoil to help in the defraying of expenses. With the high prices paid for waste paper this organization and others could no doubt find it profitable to save all of their waste paper.
One city corporation which maintains a system of waste cans has arranged with its local paper mill to collect all of the waste paper and pay the city at the rate of twenty-five cents per hundred pounds for the paper collected. Many of the larger Lawrence business firms have maintained paper bailers for a number of years and have saved money selling their waste paper to the Lawrence Paper Mill.
With such a source of revenue the students might find it possible to collect money for the dormitory fund.
Save your newspapers, magazines,
candy boxes. They are worth money.
STUDENT SELF-STARTERS
There is one class of students in the University who are preparing to be real double-barreled successes. They are the men who work who mow lawns, wash windows, wait tables, drive automobiles—for other people—and spend their spare hours saving father's money instead of spending it. They are the self-starters who do not need advice or sympathy the real believers in preparedness who are making double preparation, the salt of the University who make stumbling blocks for the critics.
The mother of a self-starting student doesn't have to wash clothes to keep him in school. She doesn't have to take in roomers and she doesn't have to apologize for her son or daughter. For the self-starting student makes good. He learns business and books at the same time. He learns the value of an hour and the necessity of organization.
And K. U, can well use a few more self-starters.
WHAT IS A "ROCHE"?
At last the secret is out! We have wondered for a long time what the word "Boche" meant, when used by the French in speaking of the German soldiers. We had imagined that it was a scathing term of reproach; some blighted epithet that would go down in the annals of history as a synonym for savage cruelty.
Now comes forward the New Yorker Staats Zeitung with the information that the word originally designated a person who had violated an order of the German Penal Code, and that it was used as a form of revilement towards Italians in France, called by the latter, Italobches. As a matter of fact its meaning is the most harmless and might well be said to correspond to our own word—"cabbage-head."
If the French content themselves with simply counting heads on the enemy, they will not have transgressed very far.

THE GYM AGAIN
I wish to call the attention of those in authority to the conditions which now exist in the men's department of the gymnasium. There is, in the first instance, a special supervision, due to too few instructors. At present Mr. H. A. Lorenz is the only regular one. He cannot be down at McCook Field and up at the gym at the same time; the result is not only that I am left to shift for itself. Twice I have gone to the gym on the proper afternoons, hoping to gain admittance to the swimming pool. Not only was the latter place locked, and the pool closed, but the single person was in charge throughout the entire men's side.
The women's department has several instructors, even going so far as to appoint one to look out for and prevent accidents in the swimming pool. What prevents the University from allowing the men at least enough supervisors in charge so that the service they have paid for is really given them? Furthermore, when a University Senate going to do about it?

"From Obscurity to a Place of Prominence"
That is what Kansan advertising has done for one Lawrence greenhouse. Two months ago, the Lawrence Floral Co., had a good business, but was not getting its share of the University trade. In fact, most K. U. students didn't know that there was a Lawrence Floral Co.
Starting about the first of March, two small ads appeared every week in the Daily Kansan talking about flowers. They were not filled with flowery phrases—although such would have been suitable in an advertisement for a floral company—but just told the students that they would receive the best in flowers, prompt service and courteous treatment if they spent a little of their money at the Lawrence Floral Co.
The copy was written by one of the students on the staff of the Daily Kansan and was not meant to drive the man out of business in three or four days for want of flowers to fill the demand. But gradually the trade came. Three or four sororities gave the Lawrence Floral Co. their order for flowers for their parties. And then a few more came and a few more—
And today, the bulk of the business of the Lawrence Floral Co. is with students of the University of Kansas.
INTELLIGENT ADVERTISING, HIGH QUALITY GOODS, COURTEOUS TREATMENT AND PROMPT SERVICE ALWAYS PAY.
And not the least of these is INTELLIGENT Advertising.

LOUISIANA EDITORS
AT STATE UNIVERSITY
The department of journalism or Louisiana State University entertained the Press Association of that state recently at Baton Rouge. President Leo DeCoux, in his address opening the convention, stated that the slipshod policy of the papers of Louisiana had cost them much money in the past and advocated a printer bureau to investigate the matters of the newspaper and the cost of the newspaper may be more remunerative. Dr. C. J. Edwards of the Abbeville Meridional, addressed the organization on "Forty Years in Newspaperdom." S. O. Landry, business manager and president of the Chambers Advertising Agency of New Orleans spoke on "Co-operating with the Advertising Agency of the New Orleans City, the correspondent for the New Orleans Times-Picayune gave a talk on "Views of a Washington Correspondent." Edward C. Johnston of the Western Newpaper Union of Little Rock, Arkansas, discussed "Publicity Legislation." "Motion Pictures of Louisiana Wild Life," was the title of an illustrated lecture by Stanley C. Arrington, commissioner of the Commission of Louisiana, Hon. Harry D. Wilson, commission-elect of Agriculture and Immigration talked on the "Agricultural Development of Louisiana, while James L. Wright, of New Orleans, president of the New Orleans Bankers' Loan and Securities Company in his address of Louisiana's Needs from the Rural Council." He noted that mortgage institutions for the farmers of the state were a necessary reform. Forty editors from different parts of the state attended the sessions of the convention.
The University of California, Berkeley, held a day tag recently to raise $1,100 to complete the fund of $3,000 necessary to defray the expenses of the track team to the I. C. A. A. A.

Says People of Kansas Should Give Institutions Better Support
FINDS ONLY GENTLENESS
Speaks of Personal Honor Among University Men
"After spending a week in Lawrence and having had the opportunity many times in the past to visit at other schools, the writer is free to state that he doesn't believe there is a school in Kansas in which the free, open hearted hospitality exists to the degree it does in K. U. For true courteousness in K. U. it fails and whatever indictments may be brought against the frats generally we exempt those of K. U. It was the second time we have had the pleasure of being entertained there and the welcome was most hearty each time.
Will Townley, editor of the Great Bend Tribune, who was one of the visiting editors last week tells us of his impressions of the University in a half column editorial. Mr. Townley was among the most active of the visiting editors during the week he spent during the course. He tells of his trip as follows:
The writer was a guest of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter house and had the opportunity of studying the working behind the scenes. He was entertained with others at meals at the Sigma Chi house and received invitations to other frat houses. In every instance he found a lot of fine, many young fellows, courteous and oblique and an interesting outfit of derision. He found that there was no roydwity, that the frats have built up a standard of personal honor, of application to studies, that is most pleasing to one who has heard a different story and our advice to the young man going to K. U. is to accept any chance he may meet to get into something there. The hoist serves courtesy to the guest stands foremost with the boys of K. U., and we're for them.
SAYS MONEY IS NEEDED
SAYS MONEY IS NEEDT "There are rules of U.S. law that the school is being crippled by the people of the state who do not understand the way in which they are cramped for room, in the appropriations that are asked for and denied and there is little doubt but if the people of the state should visit the University to learn about the conditions existing there they would be a lot more willing to demand that the legislature show more liberality in the operation of the big school of Kansas and the west. There is a great work being done at the State Universities, a valuable corps of instructors there should be aided by the state in every way.
"MORE BUILDINGS NECESSARY"
"MORE BUILDINGS NECESSARY"
"Lawrence is one of the pillars of diversity buildings that are located on Mount Oread, the highest point in eastern Kansas. No prettier campus can be found than K. U. and the visitors are always charmed by the beauty of the scene from which they get there. The school has been growing too fast and more buildings and equipment are needed."

NEWS MEN TO ELECT
Journalism Department Politics Will be Settled Next Tuesday
Tuesday
And now the journalism students are to take a hand in politics of their own. The annual election of officers for the Associated Journalism Office will be held in the office of the Daily Kansan. Six officers will be elected at the regular election to serve during the next year. President, vice-president, secretary (men), secretary (woman), treasurer, and three-tarms will be the officers elected.
The journalism students organized in February, 1916 with Guy Scrivner as president. His term only lasted until the close of school this semester and the officers elected at this time will take office in September. The regular Australian ballot system will allow the department will have the privilege of voting for their candidates on a printed ballot. Any student regularly enrolled in the department is eligible to vote and hold office.
The political pot had not begun to boil very hard this morning and the candidates had not announced themselves or even hinted that they had been "urged" to run by numerous friends. But they have little time left in which to start their campaign for the petition; the organization is an executive board of the organization before six o'clock to tomorrow night. A payment of twenty-five cents must accompany each petition to cover the cost of election.

Heads of College Will Hold 1917 Conference in Lawrence No Important Rules
L. S. Beughly
The deans of the colleges of the state universities in the North Central Association will meet at the University of Kansas next year for their annual conference. Dean Templin has just returned from this year's conference, and he said it was it was on his invitation that the deans decided to come to Kansas next year.
Dean Templin has been chairman of the association of deans ever since it was organized a number of years ago upon his initiative. The conference has a definite program each year and devotes the last meeting to an open forum for the discussion of any questions which may be brought up.
'90 OFFERS LOAN FUND
New Scholarship for Women of Junior and Senior Class Is In Sight
EACH WILL GIVE DOLLAR
Old Grads Hop to Raise $100 to Aid Indigent Student
'15 WILL RETURN
The class of '90 expects to be able to announce a $100 loan scholarship, at commencement time. The money is to be loaned to worthy women of the class, and to establish the scholarship, every member of the class of '90 is asked to contribute at least one dollar, although, Harriette F. Sterling of 920 Indiana Street, Lawrence, who is col-umnic to the class, one need be limited to that amount."
The eleven members present at the twenty-fifth reunion of the class last June, thought it would be a worthy object for the class to create such a fund and started the plan to add to the $31.88 now on hand.
After a year out of school the class
returns to return commencement week
for its last exam.
MUST PAY FOR DINNER
Russell Gear, secretary of the class, writes from Guymon, Oklahoma, urging every member of the class to come to the reunion and fulfill that longing and desire to visit the campus and see the old friends at K. U. again. He says, "You owe it to the class, as well as to the University this spring and I feel certain that you will be there to help keep alive the spirit that was so prominent during the entire four years."
The class of '15 received the last free commencement dinner. This year the dinner will cost fifty cents a person and the members of last year's class will have a chance to show the people of the state that they do think enough of the old school to come back and attend the annual dinner even though they do have to pay for it.
By the way, Russell also says he is being stuck pretty hard, sending out all those letters to the classmates of '15 and if they would each send him two-bits, he could keep things going for some time to come.

MUSIC BY PROF. A. NEVIN
A plan for the joint publication of the "Stuff of Laughter" and its incidental music is under headway by Peyre Shostak, the author of the play which will be shown on the golf links the evenings of May 12, 13, and 15, and the composer of its incidental music, Prof. Artur Novin. The play sometimes as a comic opera sometime during the summer providing the arrangements that are already being made toward that end can be completed.

2. By unifying student life it will create a better Nebraska spirit.
3. By being representative of the various departments of the University it will create a greater and more wholesome department spirit.
4. It will mean the adoption of the Siegel's technique which will produce widgets, dialogs, activity
6. It will mean the creation of a University State, having functions similar to the state at large, thus producing a laboratory in self-governance.
6. It will mean the adoption of the State Union, which will predominate in the election.

TENNIS SCHEDULE OUT
Two Matches at Home, One at Des Moines on K. U. List This Spring
This Spring
A complete tennis schedule has been arranged according to an announcement from Manager W. O. Hamilton this morning. Two dual matches on the McCook courts are the home matches for the Varsity players who meet at Des Moines is the only trip which the Varsity players will get to take for a racket match.
Oklahoma is the first dual match on the program. The Sooner tennis sharks will play Teachner and his partner Johnson, and Scales and their partner Field curry. This partner will probably be the same one which worked with Dix in the Nebraska meet last week. The matches will be played as late in evening as possible, since it is much wind as possible. The exact hour had not been determined this morning.
Next week the Missourians will come for their dual meet on Friday and Saturday May 19 and 20. This will be the same time as the basketball games between the two schools on McCook Field and the week will be almost the same. The track team is except the track squad will be on a foreign field. The match with Missouri last year was split but Teacher hopes to take it this year.
The Missouri Valley meet will be held in Des Moines this year on May 26 and 27. Several fine courts are available for the Valley tennis playground, but the Drake school had no trouble in securing the Valley meet on their home grounds. Last year in the Valley meet Kansas did not land very well. Teacher lost his singles for the first time in the year but that was due to several bad guesses on the part of the judges together with adverse conditions in his court upon as soon as the Valley and the result is likely to prove this fact.

During the summer session the lake will be open to the students of the summer school free of charge, but a fee of one dollar will be collected from all those who are not in school. There will be two seasons for swimming this summer, one lasting six weeks and the other lasting four weeks. A fee of one dollar will be charged at both sessions.
There will be dressing rooms large enough to accommodate the crowd, and they will be erected near the lake. Tents will probably be used for dressing rooms although other structures will be erected near the lake, but that it may not be possible to arrange for them this year.

Why? The call could come this afternoon but it would not cause any excitement with the members. We simply obey orders and that is all we ever think about."
"As to getting a call soon," laughed Captain Jones, "that is something that none of us can answer at present. It depends on a number of things and those things are best understood as a chance of getting a call this afternoon as a year from now. It's simply a matter of guesswork."
Mobilization could be effected in a very short time. From the moment that word was received from the War Department, there would not exceed three days at the most. Those men living in the western part of the state would have a reasonable length of time to report at the Armory here, providing that the college年头 had closed and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. If the entire regiment was ordered to the border, three special trains of fourteen cars each would be hectare-wide and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. If the entire regiment was ordered to the border, three special trains of fourteen cars each would be hectare-wide and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. There is a possibility that a certain amount of open and extended order drill would be indulged in before the regiment left the Fort, the idea being to accustom the hex-landers with coordination in cooperation with other companies and full regimental order.

TO TRAIN TRACK MEN
E. B. Markley, Hired to Get Injured Men Back Into Shape
WORKED FOR J.L. SULLIVAN
NUMBER 151.
New Addition to Athletic Force Once Trained Champion
E. B. Markley, the man who trained John L. Sullivan while he was heavyweight champion of the world, is the latest addition to the athletic staff of the University. Coach Hamilton decided that the only way to get his injured athletes into first rate competition was to get a first class professional trainer, "Doc." Markley is the man finally decided upon.
"There is wonderful material in this school," said Mr. Markley this morning, "and some really good athletes are sure to be developed if they will just pay strict attention to their training and work. I never saw a more likely bunch of men in my life, and I have trained quite a few athletes, too."
Trainer Markley started his career in athletics as a professional spinner, many years ago. His races were all at home and he won when professional foot-racing was a more profitable business than it is at present. He travelled all over the west and met and competed against some of the greatest sprinters of the
Finding himself adaptable to the work, Mr. Markley took up the training of athletes as a profession and has followed it ever since. During the bicycle craze he found many employ- ers with street races and trained not a few champion cyclists.
"I like especially to train track athletes and football players," said Mr. Markley, when asked why he had worked with Mike Murphy. "I worked for a year with Mike Murphy, the world's greatest trainer, while he was at the University of Pennsylvania, and I have learned a deal from him and his methods."
Trainer Markley says that Rodkey's foot is now in good condition, but a bit weak yet. He thinks, however, that the star middle distance running team has been victorious in his usual races against Mipsurl Saturday morning.
WRITES FROM THE ORIENT
Mr. Markley came here from Keokuk, Iowa where he trained the professional baseball team last winter. During the summer months he was employed by several bankers and business man of Keokau, whom he trained as a physician in the normal condition. He comes to the University with many good recommendations, and his work here so far has been entirely satisfactory.
"With a week more time," he says, "I will have Treweeke's肛 in excellent condition. The sprained muscles are slow to heal, but I feel as though the jumper will be able to do his best by the end of next week. It is even possible that we will get him in shape for the meet on Saturday."

OLD JAYHAWK YELL AGAIN
PROVES INSPIRATION
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 12, 1916.
The power of Rock Chalk Jay Hawk K. U. to lead the mobs is growing daily. A traveler in the east tells us that the Turks used the famous old yell as a battle cry and that the spirit enthused into the men resulted in the winning of the battle. But the achievement of the turks is great. Society-threil hit the trail Wednesday night in Billy Sunday's Tabernacle while 150 students of the K. U. Rosedale Medic School gave a Rock Chalk.
MAY FETE TOMORROV
If Rain Again Interferes, Festival Will be Staged Monday
Everything is in readiness for the May Fete except the weather; the rain necessitates postponing the Fete until tomorrow afternoon. Should it rain then, Monday is the date set. If it rains it will be Friday, May 19.
The joint rehearsal of the Latin chorus, orchestra and dances, Wednesday evening, proved that every feature was completed for the most elaborate May Fete given at the University of Kansas.
Fifty men and women wearing Greek robes sing the four choruses at intervals during the afternoon. After the first chorus, forty/libra carriers, women of the junior class, enter with their jars and make an offering to Apollo and the nine muses, who appear in a picturesque dance.
Diana and her followers, archery maidens and three small girls playing ball, enter with the spoils of the hunt in the background. A stuffed deer has been tied to two saplings in true hunter's fashion and will be carried by two of the goddess' followers.
Venus has an opportunity to display her charms and vanity in the Dance of the Roses. She carries a large gilded hand mirror and often forges to dance with her as she admires her charms in the never forgotten glass. She tires of the revels and retires to her throne, biding her rose bedecked followers to seat themselves at her feet. Pan, in the meantime, has made a frondy tree from Venus and Venus. He and his companions swing the wood nymphs and entice the archery maidens from Venus who admits her desertion by retiring to the woods.
Storm sweeps over the playground and the revelers seek shelter, only to appear the minute the rainbow predicts a clearing. Another jollification takes place to be disturbed again by real people of Earth. A crowd of children admire the day with a typical Grecian Cymbal Dance. This finished they finish the day with a wild and hilarious Bacchanal dance.

K. U. Fraternities and Sororites Entertaining Parents This
OBSERVE MOTHERS' DAY OFF FOR TIGER MEE
SEVERAL HUNDRED HERE
tain Today Will Cut Attendance and Prevent Fete for Visitors
The fraternities and sororities of the University are celebrating Mothers' Day this week end by entertaining over three hundred mothers who are coming in from all parts of the state. The majority of the Greek letter organizations will entertain for one day only, but two of the fraternities at Delta Tau have planned for two days of visiting and entertaining.
National Mothers' Day comes next Sunday, but Friday was the day chosen by the students because of the hopes of bringing in the May Fete and the tradition of a Laughter" as part of the entertainment. The rain today will probably cut down the number *o*, visiting mothers to a small degree, but most of the fraternities are expecting from visiting mothers in spite of the rain.
Two fraternities—the Sigma Chis and the Sigma Phi Sigmas have entertained the mothers, and the Acacias have made no plans for entertaining the mothers this year. The Alpha Kappa Pi Kappa, the Sigma Nus, Pi Kappa Alphas, Pi Upsilons, and the Phi Kappas will entertain their mothers this noon and tonight. The Bets and Phi Deltaes have planned their entertainment for tomorrow, and the Phi Gams will be the hosts for their mothers Sunday. The Sig Mats will be the hosts both Friday and Saturday. None of the professional fraternities have planned any definite entertainment for the mothers.
WANT REPRESENTATION
Journalism Students Petition Council For Student Day Speaker
Petitions have been presented to the Student Council by the Associated Journalism students representing over one hundred and fifty students in the department of journalism asking that their day speaker be allowed them.
"While the department of journalism is not a school in form, it has a large enrollment of a professional nature and should be represented on Students' Day," said Guy Serriwen, president of the Associated Journalism students this morning. "In the college, we have three hundred and fifty students, more than are in some schools of the University, are pursuing professional training of a distinct nature and have definite interests as common as those among Engineers or Laws. We are different from them only in the formal organization of the faculty administration. We have also hired body from those of other schools who work in our own professional societies and a general school organization."
Petitions were presented to the Student Council this morning;
FINAL LECTURE MONDAY
The Travelogue, a lecture on Yellowstone National Park, to be given Monday, May 15, at 4 o'clock, will be the last lecture for the year. It has been arranged for by the Committee on University Lectures and promises to be one of the most interesting of the year. It is open to the public.
"Travelogue" Will Close 1916 University Course
The motion pictures and slides accompany the lecture are complete.
NIGHT SCHOOLS
FOR ANY COMMUNITY
The Extension Division has announced that it will organize and endeavor to provide personal supervision of a night school in any community where twelve persons ask for such a school. This movement has resulted from the success of the North Lawrence Night School that has been conducted by several University men and women. All of the facilities of the division will be used as they are needed and these include not only instructors, lectures, pamphlets, and lecturers but recitals by men in the School of Fine Arts and the department of public speaking and men from the University bands and orchestra. This movement, it is hoped by the men in the Extension Division, will result in a more accessible program that have not as yet been accessible to the means provided by the University for teaching the people of the state.
Jayhawker Tracksters to Columbia for Annual Battle With Missouri
SLIGHT CHANCE TO WIN
K.U. Will Need All the Breaks to Take Saturday's Contest
(By Paul Brindel).
Nineteen Jayhawker track athletes accompanied by Coaches Hamilton and Patterson, left Lawrence at 8 o'clock this morning for College at James Madison in the annual K. U.-M. U. dual meet Saturday on Rollins Field. The squad will make exact connections in Kansas City, arriving in Columbia at four o'clock this afternoon, in time for four o'clock Tiger baseball series.
No predictions were being handed out by Coach Hamilton even after getting a last glimpse of the team in its final warm up practice on McCook Field. That the meet will be watched very closely, they will have to get every break. And only once, in the outdoor dual meet of 1914 did this miracle occur, and then Kansas won. So the coaches are not optimistic. With Trewekson and Rodkey in first class shape the outlook would be brighter but with a crippled team, it wouldn't be them, the K. U. team may lose by as big a margin as twenty points.
The team will be shifted slightly for the Tiger meet especially in the distances, if the advance list announced by the team is predicted in Wednesday night's Kansas, the two mile will be left to Groene and Staterdle, Grady and Hertriot handling the mile, and Spondril men on both sides. The best men on the team will be O'Leary who is scheduled for the hundred yard dash, the two-twenty, the quarter, and the relay. Coach Cham Hill expected to use him in all of them.
A list of the Kansas men and the counts in which they will compete follows.
100-yd. dash -Davidson, O'Leary.
120-yd. dash -Davidson, O'Leary.
120-yd. high hurdles -Elliott, Winn.
120-yd. high hurdles -Winn.
Quarter -Campbell, O'Leary.
Half mile -Sprout, Rodkey.
Mile -Grady, Herrnett.
Two mile -Statler, Groene.
Broad jump -Guzmitz, Tre-
High jump—Rice, Miller, Tre weeke.
Pole vault—Pattinson.
Pole vault—Fattinson.
Shot put—Capt. Reber, Small.
Discus—Reber, Small.
Relay-Elliott, Campbell, Rockey, O'Leary.
In addition to the above list, Coach Hamilton included Hilton and Fiske, although neither will probably get into the meet.
Next week will see the end of the regular gym work of the women classes. The swimming tank will be open to them every day except Friday, and those having cuts will have an opportunity to make them up.

ROSEDALE HOSPITAL
CROWDED FOR ROOM
Chancellor Strong was at Rosedale Wednesday meeting with the administrative committee of the School of Medicine. They discussed a few changes and additions to the construction of the University to adapt it to the needs of the School of Medicine to the Board of Administration of the University for their approval at the next meeting.
The superintendent of the University hospital reported 67 patients in the hospital and their capacity as 65 beds. This is a rather common state of affairs but the applicants can not well be turned away.
NO TRAVEL CREDIT NOW
Gestion Only in Embryo Stage and Cannot be Decided Now
"The question of giving credit for travel study is still in the embryo stage" said Miss Eugenie Galloo, chairman of the committee, in an interview this morning. "It is such a big question that we will be able to decide this year. We have sent out questionaires to many universities to get their opinion of our proposed innovation. We hope to establish such a course, but we have reached no conclusions whatever as to the number of hours' travel required, or the amount of work required, or where the work should be done.
There has been an observation post recently established at Woods Hall, Mass., where students of biology in the eastern universities can go to study both the sea and land formations. Another post for biological study is situated on Punjab Sound. Our university has established these posts in order that the students of this University may perfect their study by actual research work.
This is an example of how this plan has been successfully worked out in the biological field and there is no doubt it will be effectively done in the department of geology, history, economics and foreign languages.

NORTH LAWRENCE SCHOOL
PROVES SUCCESSFUL
Last night Homer Talbot of the Extension Division spoke on "Community Building." Tonight there will be an old-fashioned spelling bee for the people of the school and their friends.
Next Friday evening Prof. Arthur Nevin, of the School of Fine Arts, will give a lecture-recital in the North Lawrence Christian Church which will close the session for the year. The school will be organized next fall under the Extension Division and the people promise the most enthusiastic support because of the results obtained this spring.
Now that Editor E. M. Johnson and Manager Ross Busenhack of the Jayhawker have completed the task of editing and putting on sale this year's annual, they will probably enjoy the last few weeks of the year browsing about the library and attending the different school activities, in order to fill in the time left after getting their regular lessons.
There is a new entrance to Green Hall, and so far it has been used by women only. The south window on the east side of the building is even with the ground and leads directly to the stage in Room 3. During the warm weather this window is open and makes a good entrance way; one does not have to elbow in, nor ask admittance.

TRY TO CENSOR KANSAN
Anti-Cig President Attempts to Suppress Printing of Smoking Resolutions
HELD A MEETING IN GYM
Boxing Match Staged to Delight Anti-Cigs
An attempt was made yesterday afternoon by the president of the Anti-Cigarette League, Norman Greer, to suppress the article about the league's petition to the Senate to repeal the last night. Officers of the Anti-Cigarette League learned that a copy of the resolutions demanding that the University Senate punish all minors who smoked on the campus and any one smoking cigarettes, was to be published in the Daily Kansan.
THEORY THAT FACULTY CENSOR IT They came to the office as the paper was about to go to press and demanded of a member of the department of journalism that he suppress definition of being probably the first student to demand faculty control for the Daily Kansan's editorial policies. He urged such control very strongly in the conversation that followed.
"The Kansan is a student publication," said the instructor. "You will have to talk with some member of the Kansan Board about that."
"A good many persons think it is," said the instructor; "but they are wrong. This, and all other policies of the Board, are determined by the Kansan Board."
"In't the Kansan under faculty control?" demanded Mr. Greer. Ditch the department or journalism Ditch the department or fat. "In't it under faculty censorship?"
Then Mr. Greer unfortunately less his temper. "If the Kansan isn't an under faculty control, how is it that the journalism faculty can come out here any time and take out any story they want? And why can't you do it now?" Indeed furiously. "Is there kind of journalism you teach down here?"
"You can ask the Kansan Board about any thing that you wish to know," was the reply. "Personally I have nothing further to say to you, Your manners make further discussion by me impossible."
"Who is in charge of the news desk?" asked Mr. Greer.
"You've gone about it badly," said he instructor. "One good way to get hings done in this world is to keep our temper."
The instructor indicated the student who was making up the paper; and then Mr. Greer took up the debate again. Failing to get results, he spent some time looking up the editor, with little success.—Later on, he was observed reading the Kansan with even more interest than usual.
HAD THE SMOKER ALLEE SAMBER!
"He smokeless smoker came off just the way he should," said Larry. "She was enjoyed by all." The only stimulation was a lively boxing match; and as for Lady Nicotine, spouse of a famous singer, she insisted her name, her cars must have burned.
Chancellor Frank Strong spoke and compared the anti-cigs to the prohibitionists who withstood ridicule for years but were victorious in the end.
M NOT A CRANK"—MAC MURRAY "They were laughed at and made sport of similar to the way that our team did, but we did not Anti-Cigarette League, but they won out in the end and you will win out, too, if you keep fighting," he said.
"I am not a crank on the smoking proposition," Prof. Arthur MacMurray says, "I believe that every man should have the ability to smoke if he chooses to do so."
APPLAUDED FIGHT IN RING
A force boxing match between Harry Blount, of the Y. M. C. A. and Justin Blount, a freshman was received with delight by the Anti-Cig-ate the heavyweights of Harlan, who is an experienced boxer brought yells and applause as he maulped the younger man around the ring. About two hundred men attended the meeting.

SMALL THEATRES AND THE MOVIES
In converting the Bowersock theatre into a combination photoplay and legitimate drama house the management has struck up a happy scheme which has given Lawrence the best from the film studios and a higher quality of spoken drama than ever before. The theatre in the small town which seeks to produce only the spoken drama is confronted by a big financial problem. It is impossible to find an audience every night for good plays and to make money the management is forced to produce a lot of cheap plays or lose money.
The motion picture drama, however, has furnished an ideal means of combating this situation. By turning his theatre into a movie house five nights a week the wise manager can stage Guy Bates Post in "Omar The Tentmaker" on the sixth and make more money than he did when he shove! cheap plays four nights a week and keep a dark house the other two. Students in the University have been offered some of the best drama on the American stage this year and little or no trash. The movie has made it possible for us to see Forbes-Robertson in "Hamlet," Mabel Taliertoon in "The New Henrietta," Macklyn Arbuckle, Wm. H. Crane, Thomas W. Ross, and others.
A Topeka woman has an alligator which stands on its hind legs and sings like a frog, according to the Capital, and because the beast sings at night she has given it to a zoo. Talk about your intellectual pups—the Capital gets the dog.
THE MAY FETE
The May Fete this year is to be the finest ever given by the University. It is to be a spectacle worthy of any institution. Critics say that it will equal the great productions staged at Bryn Mawr and Wellesley. It is the best advertisement that a school could possibly have. Yet how many visitors from outside Lawrence will see the Fete? Not many. Why? Because they don't know what it is, or because they were not invited. Next year every student ought to invite at least five people to the May Fete and he should see to it that they come. A crowd from over the state would be worth untold money to the University.
GOSSIP MONGERS
Faculty men who repeat gossip about students. on hearsay evidence should be classed with other gossips. They are no better than scandal-mongering old women and may ruin lives. The man who repeats gossip is not only unfair to himself but does a damage which he cannot repair. Gossip has been repeated this year, which is without fact or foundation and the student injured had has to stand quietly by and bear the consequences. There should be a sense of fairness, a gentlemanly breeding, among the faculty men of the University that would render such a case impossible.
The registrar has sent out letters calling attention of organization treasurers to the rule which demands that they make a written report of finances each year. It will be interesting to note what attention will be given to the communication, which is enclosed in rather definite language. However the rule has been virtually a deadletter, so far as accomplishing any definite check on student finances.
Now That-

FOUND IN A BOOK
A Corner for the Library Browser
Feodor Mikaylovitch Dostoevski, one of the most famous of that great group of Russian writers who produced some of the world's best literature, was born in St. Petersburg at the last stage of his school life, and finished it in fact, as a military engineer. Born in Moscow in 1821, the son of a surgeon in poor circumstances, Dostoevski had ambitions to become a great engineer but he dropped out of school in 1843 and went on to work in which brought him fame and some money. Soon after this he allied himself with one of the Russian radical parties and was sentenced to a life of hard labor in Siberia. Although warded for pardon, he bitterly resented left, ineffacable marks on his spirit which showed in his greatest work, "Crime and Punishment," which appeared in 1866. The following extract is taken from "The Thief," one of his most famous short stories, "The Judge." He guarded and showed the effect that Vodka had upon the Russian people.
"His face was bluish and his hair was full of mud as if he had slept in the street; and he had grown thin, the poor hooded had hat, and I comfort him in every way. Well, I said to him, have you had anything to eat?"
"I doubt it. Well, here is some ice cabbage soup with some meat in t—not the meagre kind. And here have some bread and a little onion."
The drunkard, however, grew worse and the story continues:
"He lay dying before me. I sat on the window with some work I had on hand lying on my lap. The old woman was raking the stove. We were all silent and my heart was breaking over this poor shiftless creature, as if he were my own son whom I was losing."
Bartlettus De Spinoza (1632-1677) a Cartesian philosopher, was born at Amsterdam, Holland. He belonged to a Jewish family but was later excommunicated on account of his heretical views. His livelihood was earnest and he devoted his life to philosophy. The works published by Spinoza are: Ethica, De Intellectus Emendatione, and Tractatus Politicus. Translations have been written by William B. White (1883), Caird (1888), Pollack (1880), and Duff (1903).
PEOPLE YOU HAVE HEARD OF
The泵mozoxian system is essentially a development of the Cartesian, the most conspicuous feature of which is the thinking and extending a substance. His leading idea is that in becoming conscious of the unity of all things, we rise above the bondage of the passions and desires which belong to our future.
Perfect being is substance. Nothing exists except infinite substance accompanied by infinite attributes which constitute it. Each in its own degree manifests the supreme reality which is God. The universe is the infinite expansion and the divided expansion. Body and soul are two modes of the substance one the attribute of expansion, the other the thought. The human soul is the idea of the soul. That thought is the object. Free will is an illusion; would disappear if it were possible to trace back the line of causes.

In answer to "Senior" I would like to say that the managers of the Jayawaker this year took a marked step in advancement in departing from the old arrangement of fraternities. I beg to disagree with "Senior" in my views, inasmuch as I included without rhyme or reason." They are arranged alphabetically, a custom followed by many of the largest University annuals, which is also better reference. According to the opinion of many of the seniors, the arrangement of this year's Jayawaker far superior to that used in the past.
CAMPUS OPINION
Another Senior.
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but name will not be published.
Editor Daily Kansan:
It is, of course, to be expected that all students will not be pleased by any quiz schedule which could be made and probably been made and probably always will be. But the chorus of groans which went up a few days ago when the Senate announced the quiz schedule were used as us to be more than usually justified.
Editor Daily Kansan:
It may be necessary (but the fact will have to be proved to many) that quizzes in the two most popular hours in the students' schedule should be scheduled for the day. Whatever the reasons, we can only hope that some good angel of Providence will hasten to our rescue and remove one of them before the fatal day of Friday, the sixth. We, who are always carefully placing our hardest hours at 8:30 and 1:30, when we expected to be freshest for mental endeavor and because we hoped thereby to utilize two hours which were otherwise in danger of being wasted — we, I say, should keep a leisure to re-arrange our rush decision.
If the earnest wish of the student body as a whole can suffice to move the hearts of the powers that she be, then revised schedule before quiz week.

That the war has practically stamped out sports in England even in the colleges, is the statement made by George B. Bainbridge, an eminent English sportsman. Football, which was by far the most popular game before the war, is now restricted to schoolboys, and the biggest hit was given up. Lawn tennis has also ceased to exist. Golf is the only game that has not been seriously affected, but is played chiefly by old enthusiasts.
An interesting feature of the summer session at Dartmouth this year will be a course in drama and pageantry. A series of lectures will be given in connection with it by such illustrious men as Clayton Hamilton, Percy Mackaye and Leo Wilson Dood of Smith College.
If K. U. is in sympathy with Mr. Sunday and the great work he is doing, such actions should be discouraged and suppressed. If this is true, I will express the adverse, "I don't care attitude that is being taken.
The senior class at Princeton University has devised a means for raising an alumni memorial fund by taking out insurance policies in favor of the alumni. The funds grow from four to fifteen dollars a year bringing in a return of $100 to $400 each. The policies are to be held by a large insurance company and the entire principle will be paid to Princeton University after twenty-five years.
At the University of Oregon a novel plan has been adopted to construct bungalows and a cafeteria for the use of students. The idea of the plan is to reduce the yearly expenses of students to $225 or less.

Entomologists Offer Remedies to Exterminate Worms
Has the banding of the elm trees so much heralded in the early spring done any good? This question has arisen in the minds of many people who banded seem to have shared equally badly in the distribution of the destructive and distasteful little canker or measuring worms. The men of the department of entomology say that the banding, if it was preformed of the female and the trees are comparatively free from bugs. Some of the pests have swung down from the upper branches of the infected trees to the lower branches of protected trees and are on them because that these bugs will do is necillible.
On the other hand many people maintain that their trees were protected by the bands which were put on and kept up according to instructions. They quote the motto of their quota of the pests. Thus the matter stands at the present time.
SOME DOUBT BANDING
There is no question but what spraying would be the proper and efficient method of freezing the trees from these hanging pests. However, the city has refused to buy a spraying machine during the present year and there is apparently no hope from that source. Some of the men about town who value their trees highly do small spraying on own and have the successfully on the trees that are not too large. The proper spray is made up of any poison, but the most efficient is probably that made up of lime, arsenate of lead and water. The department of entomology will give the proper proportions upon request. Acide from this and the burning of the nests of webs with torches of rags sucked in keratin there is no hope of freezing the trees this year. The bugs will be on the trees not more than three weeks longer and they may all be in the ground before that, according to the weather.
SPRAYING THE BEST
The trouble has all originated from the little gray moth that may be seen stuck on the bands of the banded trees, and a little dark grey wingless "bug" that is to be seen below the bands. These are the male and female of the species. They have spent winter in the ground under the trees in the poultry barns were off the ground they hatched out and crawled over the snow to the trees, and the females started their ascent. Many however did not hatch out until later, the periods varying with the vitality of the individual and the depth to which it had crawled the year before. Then, also, there seems to be an increase all of a long brood from hatching the same time, that a common accident may not destroy the whole brood at one stroke.
After the female had climbed into the smaller branches she began to deposit egs—by the thousands, as any one seeing the mass of webs in the tops of the tree she time can take. Then she and the time can dipped after a brief life of not more than four or five days at the most.
LOWER BRANCHES FIRST
The eggs, deposited on the small branches near the leaf buds, hatched with the swelling of the buds and the putting forth of the little leaves. At first the worms were small, slender, and black but they soon changed into big, soft, brownish measuring worms that spin a single thread and down into a pupal case to rest in until the coming of the next spring. This entailing period covers about a month, according to the season.
The pupal case is similar in shape to that of any moth—for the worms belong to the moth family—but is naturally smaller than those of the larger moths. It is of a coarse brown material on the outside and is lined with a silvery white soft silk that is spun by the worm before settling in the sleep that allows hemorrhagic physisis. This will be his residence until the next spring, unless he happens to have had a very early start in the spring and the fall is unusually late and then he may come out and there will be two broods in the year. Thus is the life circle complete.
of their worth. For the less patient, there are the small spraying machines and the oil torches. In either case you will have to get a whole area cleared—it will pay
As to the method to be followed in getting rid of insects in general, insects are divided into two classes—those with chewing mouths and those that simply pierce the skin of the plants and may cause an infection. The worm has chewing mouth parts, any poison that can be applied to the food that he eats will "gift" him. That is the reason that sprays are affective for his species of insects and cooking varieties are destroyed by an oil spray that closes up their breathing pores.

13-15-16
"The Stuff of Laughter" which was to have been given tonight, tomorrow and Monday evening has been postponed until the evenings of the 13, 15 and 16 of May. The author of the play, said this morning that it would be impossible to delay its presentation, but the singers were from out of town and that the costumes from the east were rented for only a limited time.
Seats have been arranged on the links to accommodate from 800 to 1000 persons. A test mule during a rehearsal was used and the seat was in good hearing distance.
The many unusual features connected with the play and its prepara-
tions are as follows: the entire student body and many town-
people. No expense has been spared in its preparation and the grand
task is to be filled by each night it is shown.
"The Stuff of Laughter" is the first play ever given in which both the author of the play and the composer of its incidental music take important parts. The lighting effects are especially elaborate and are entirely new to this part of the country. The dances have been planned with great enthusiasm and a childlike discussion. The music composed by Prof. Arthur Nevin is said to be of the finest quality and serves as a setting for the action.
The cast of the play follows:
King of Iceland—Ralph Spotts, a lawyer, lawyer, and former cheerleader.
His daughter—Helen Clarke.
His daughter—Helen Clarke.
King of Denmark—Merle Smith.

AMONG the leading exponents of system and efficiency today are the successful department stores. In fact such a wonderful system has been established that one is likely to take too many things for granted. You enter a big store—this store-you get what you want and then go out.Have you ever thought of the immense amount of labor,initive or of planning that has been necessary to bring that article to you?
Anything you might pick up contains a history of development from the raw material to the finished product, as you see it, that if unfolded to you would be as fascinating as most any story you might read.

SIGMA CHI BEAT PHI DELTS
With Baker holding the Phi Delta to one hit, the Sigma Chisw won their second game of the Pan-hellenic series on Hamilton Field yesterday afternoon. The score was 5 to 3. The contest was full of thrills, and only by bunching a couple of hits along with some costly errors in the third half, the Sige able to gain a lead of three runs and thus decide the game.
Baker Holds Phi Delta to Onc Hit in Close Game
Dever pitched consistent ball for the Phi Delta, but his support was a bit ragged at times. His team got their first run in the sixth inning and thus settled the dispute as to a shut-out.
In the first half of the seventh, the last inning, the Phil Dilts started a rally that at first looked as if it might terminate in a backslide for the Sigs. But when Hettlinger, in the third quarter, made a catch in big league style and brought about the final out, the score stood 5 to 3 in favor of the Sigs.

Use School Buildings for Classes in Towns Visited
Prof. Erasmus Haworth of the department of Geology is intensely interested in the subject of travel study. When approached for an interview, this morning, he said, in his kindly manner:
"Why, I'm just full of the subject and I guess I could run on indefinitely, but I realize that brevity is a necessary requirement of a newspaper. They have to leave space for their medicine advertisements, of course."
"The immortal bard is accused of having said, 'Home keepyouts have homely wits,' a statement which I wrote in his time and surely is true today.
"Travel schools may or may not be a modern invention. At any rate they have flourished in one form or another during the last twenty years. The ordinary travel school of today is merely an excursion for the purpose of sight seeing and the knowledge gained from experience time has come for a modification of the travel school to be introduced and I thoroughly believe that within the next few years someone will take up the matter and carry it to success.
TRAVEL IN STATE
"I have looked into this matter quite a little and I am sure it is entirely feasible whenever the institutions of America wish to take it up. For example, suppose an excursion train should leave Lawrence, having a car to five hundred students, properly equipped with teachers who would act as chaperons as well. This train could travel over any part of America desired. It could stop at interesting points as long as necessary, and I am sure abundant facilities would be available to five hundred students in any large city in the United States. The excursion, for example, might go to Niagara Falls and stop there for a week. The first day could be devoted to sight seeing entirely, after which at least five days of good study and recitation could be had. During this time, students would gatherings, time now entirely thrown away by students, much sight seeing could be done and much local history could be gathered which would be of perpetual benefit to the student. From Niagara Falls the next stop might be at any point, such as Winnipick, which would be headed westward and from there across to Calgary, or Edmondson, or Prince Rupert, or Vancouver, or any place determined upon. The cities named have large and commodious school rooms, and I am sure would be glad to loan the same to a traveling school to another. With proper arrangements made in advance abundant facilities for living could be provided, just as well there as elsewhere.
MANY SCHOOLS CO-OPERATE
"with a proper corp of teachers from a number of different institutions, examinations and grades could be prepared and reported to the several institutions in which the students wish credit, and in that way a school cosmopolitan in nature could be carried across the country," she wrote. "and all institutions into which the students wish to enter the following autumn."
"At the present time there can be no question but that our young people waste an enormous amount of time, and this by force of circumstances. They walk down the streets of Lawrence, view the same signs, the same sidewalks, the same buildings, the same people. How many others will it be for them to walk their own way? As they walk down the streets of other great cities and see other faces and other business houses and learn other local history and connect such local history with the history of the development of America.

"I would state, therefore, that I am thoroughly in favor of travel schools for the following reasons. First: It will utilize so much more of the students' time. Second: Constant changes in surroundings keep the mind clear and active, so one can learn much more readily. Third: We will be taught in this way to young people at the time of youth when they can best learn and retain the knowledge, and also, they will have this information to use throughout the remainder of their lives. Fourth: Many people go to summer resorts simply to spend the time and come back in the autumn with little better prepared for the future life than though they had not gone.
"By combining a travel school with such excursions the maximum good value."

TIGERS WIN FIRST GAME
Jayhawker Baseball Athletes Lost Opener of Missouri Series 8 to 4
By Cargill Sproull, special staff cor- respondent.
And Red Craig pitched.
Columbia, Mo., May 12—Whether it was the drizzling rain that fell all afternoon or the fact that Missouri's record of victories absolutely refused to be broken, is not certain. But Kansas lost the opening game of the Tiger series yesterday afternoon by an 8 to 4 score.
The KC team two straight games in two days that Craig pitched in Lawrence last spring and won and by doing so threw Missouri out of the 1915 Valley championship, were still fresh in the minds of the Tiger team when the auburn haired one mounted the slab. For two innings he escaped but in the third came a volley of hits and three M. U. runs.
In the fifth the deluge and five more TUMOR, the Draig left the slub but
Coach McAry's athletics collected seven hits off Bryant and Giltner, the two Tiger hurriers, but only in the second game they able to bunch them effectively.
The score by innings:

SHOSTAC PLAY A HIT
"Stuff of Laughter" Best Dramatic Production in K. U. History
NEVIN'S MUSIC PLEASED
Great Credit Due Fine Arts School Professor for Part
(Bv Donald D. Davis)
"The best amateur production ever staged at the University," is the verdict of the 600 people who saw "The Stuff of Laughter" at its initial performance in Marvin Grove Saturday evening. Percy B. Shostac, of the department of English, wrote the play, and Arthur Nevin, of the School of Fine Arts, composed the incidental music. University students and alumni participated in a university artisans arranged the scenic settings and the lighting effects. From first to last the production was thoroughly a K. U. production.
NUMBER 152
MEDIEVAL FANTASY
"The Stuff of Laughter" is a medieval fantasy in two parts and a prologue and an epilogue. The prologue is an invitation, spoken by the Spirit of the Stage, to the audience to witness the play. Then the action begins; and we see depicted the terrible harshness of the Middle Ages, revealing the nature of the world. Iceland king who drives his daughter from his court because she will not marry a drunken suitor. Part Two shows the Princess and the Court Fool in the Deep Forest, two days after they have fed from the court. They are weary and fainting, and sleep in the shelter of an oak. The princess the Spirit of the Oak comes to rescue them and leads to the bower of Frejya, Goddess of Spring and Love. The succeeding scenes show their journey to the bower, their struggles with the powers of darkness, and the aid given them by the powers of light. Then comes the epilogue, in which the Spirit of the Stage again appears, to explain that the story has been only a dream
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 15, 1916
Honors in acting the production are shared equally by Helen Clark, as the Princess; Ralph Spots, as the King of Ireland, and Percy Shostac, as the Court Fool. Miss Clark's portraitage of the young princess was sympathetic and forceful. Ralph Spots' stands in him good stead in the "double" of his the King and the Spirit of the Oak. To his careful, studied impersonation of the two roles, in fact, must a good share of the success of the production be credited. Percy Shostac played the difficult part of the Fool just as it should have been played to secure the proper effect. Merle Smith made a sufficiently drunken lover, and J. B. McNeaugh acted cleverly a minor role. Florence Butler, as Freya, displayed real histrionic ability.
J. B. McNaught, Earle Metcalf, and Helen Topping were the featured dancers. Each did solo work of unusual merit. Other dancers in the ballet were Fritz Schnitzler, Tom Mairs, Gurrie Henson, Ray Gaffney, Robert Dillon, James Shea, Bretherton, Florence Ragle, Mariana Joseph, Josephine Stimpson and Mildred Spake. Dr. Alice Goetz trained the dancers.
MUSIC DISTINCTIVE
The music, which was distinctly individual, as is all of Professor Nevin's work, added the finishing touch to the aesthetic effect of the production. It is not often that music and words are so skillfully blended that the hearer is almost at a loss to distinguish between the two, to tell which it is that is so strangely affecting him. Yet such was the case Saturday night.
Every strain from the orchestra brought out in relief the appeal of the spoken words. And with such an unreliability, adapted to the play that it was indeed difficult to tell which was more beautiful, the play itself or its musical background. Each would have been so accomplished that seem incomplete without the other.
The production will be repeated to night and tomorrow night, at 815 0933.

OLD K. U. STUDENT WRITES OF CONDITIONS ON BORDER
James R. Harrison, '18 College, who is now working for the Santa Fe at Douglas, Arizona, writes back some interesting observations of conditions at the border. Speaking of the recent state of the Mexican people he says:
"Such conditions are unbelievable. . . . Some of the abode houses still have huge holes where Villa's cannon shells went through them. . . The men in the room did not enough clothes to cover their backs, but have full equipment of arms.
He goes on to say that Carranza has enough cannon near Agua Prieta to shell Douglas to the ground in a few hours, and that he has over ten thousand men in the state of Sonora to support them as well. The army soldiers on this side of the line.
Harrison worked for the Santa Fe in the Topela offices until recently.

2,000 ATTEND MAY FETE H. S. ATHLETES COMING
y Festival Brought Many Out-of-Town Visitors
SCENES WERE GRECIAN
Venus, Diana, and Other Mythological Characters Represented
Send the Daily Kansan home.
Mrs. H, H. Vernon and her daughter Ethel, and Miss Dorothy Tibbets, all of Blue Rapids, came to Lawrence Friday to attend the May Fete. Harry Vernon, 19C., is a son of Mrs. Vernon.
I smile of threatening weather and damp ground, the May Fete was held Saturday after 10 a.m. at 4 o'clock. About 2,000 people many out of town attended the festival. The natural stage was an excellent representation of the haunt of Venus, supposedly on the plain of Henna, in Sicily. The time represent the three days of Venus, beginning the three days' festival in the Spring of the year.
The seismograph in Blake Hall recorded a slight tremor which is probably a result of the earthquake which occurred in Wyoming Friday. The time recorded here was 8:35 in the evening.
One of the mist impressive scenes of the afternoon was the appearance of Alma Mater and her attendants. The steps of Alma Mater's throne were particularly effective. The Grecian atmosphere was carried out in the lighting of the incense on the altar by the lighting of the candles on the offerty of the Libation carriers.
Another Quake
Following the first Latin chorus Pan and his companions appeared; their dance was applauded heavily. The setting of Diana's dance was typically a hunting scene; the deer hounds and archery middens completed the picture. The Wind Dance was as animated as the dances of Pan, Apollo and Bacchus. Ray Gafney was a hit in the role of Cupid.
Venus was supported by a chorus of rose dancers, who with the mountain nymphs and dryads, formed a pleasing group about her throne. The cloud dance followed by the storm and bright rainbow was one of the unusual and successful of many of the original features of the day.
As dusk settled over the campus, the seniors with lighted tops, left the throne of Alma Mater and presented them to the waiting juniors.

HOLD NO WATER TOURNEY
Before the building of Potter's Lake the carnival was held on the river and was a big event. All the boats not in the races were decorated for a parade. Canoe races, tugs-of-war, swimming races, and tilting contests usually constituted the larger part of the tournament.
The annual dinner of the School of Fine Arts will be given Friday night, in Robinson Gymnasium. The affair is in charge of a committee at North College and tickets may be obtained from the man of the committee, or from the fine arts office, as early at Tuesday. For several years this dinner has been a true family reunion for the Fine Arts students, graduates and faculty. It is not an exclusive affair and it is especially interested may attend.
The Mathematics Club will lay aside everything this afternoon pertaining to the science of mathematics and go out for a picnic. They will take a lunch along and not return until the stars appear.
The Water Carnival which has been a feature of Commencement Week for years, will not be held next month, as the owners object to the canoes being carried from the river to Potter's Lake. Unless wrapped and carried quickly the sun's heat cracks the filler of the canoes.
University Will Have Over Two hundred visitors to Entertain
MUST BEAT M. U. RECORD
Tigers Showed Real Hospitality to H. S. Boys at Columbia
Two hundred high school students are going to be guests of the University of Kansas this week. Most of these are progressive freshmen and every one of them is a prize athlete from his high school. K. U. students will be given a chance to show them the advantages of this institution by persuade a number of them to make Kansas their future alma mater.
ALL EXPENSES PAID
G. MISSOURI ONE BETTER
The annual invitation meet in which the stars of the tracks from Kansas and Missouri will compete will be held Saturday afternoon. Invitations have been sent to the high school athletes who took first in the interscholastic season. The athletic association will pay the expenses of these students to the meet Saturday. In addition to this any athletes in the state who wish to enter the meet may take part but they will have to pay their own expenses. After that athletic association agrees to take care of them.
The majority of the students who will come for this meet have just returned from a similar meet at the University of Missouri and have their systems full of the wonders of the Tiger institution. Kansas now has a splendid showing that give a splendid showing will give Kansas a large bunch of athletes next fall. The reports from Missouri indicate that the entertainment offered these men was the best the country offers and we have to show some warm salir to bent it.
STUDENTS MUST CO-OPERATE
"I in the entertainment of these visitors are in charge of the co-operation of the students of the University," said Coach Hamilton this morning. "These men are the pick of the high schools of the state and they are the men that we need to teach them so that the students to show them a good time and show them the advantages of this institution. Most of them have not made up their minds yet just where they will attend school next
"This is the biggest opportunity of the year for the fraternities and clubs to line up men for next fall. But this should not be the only motive. The students should be interested enough to participate." K. U., instead of rival institutions."
A list of the men who will be guests of the University is on file at Manager Hamilton's office and will be shown to all students interested. The list will be given in the Daily Kansan as soon as completed.

GRIGGS SELLS CIGAR STORE
— FAVORITE LOAFING PLACE
The Griggs Cigar Store located at 827 Massachusetts street passed into the hands of Mr. E. Anderson, Friday. Mr. Griggs has been located in a quiet reading room at the back of the room has always been a great place for students to spend their idle hours. Griggs will always be remembered as the man who has provided the students with little red and blue pens which adorn the suit cases and traveling bags of almost every student.
TWELVE SEEK PLACES
Many Want Plums in Tomorow's Election of Journalism Students
Twelve students of the department of journalism are out for places in tomorrow's annual election of officers to be held by the Associated Journalism students, the name adopted for organization of the newspaper students.

Guy Serivner, now president of the organization, said today that the usual printed ballots will be provided for tomorrow's election. The polls which will be located in the Journalism will be in open from 8:30 to 1 o'clock.
NO FOOTBALL SCHOOL
Demand for Training Insuficient as Yet Says Dr. Naismith
There will be no football school at the University of Kansas this summer as was suggested by Dr. A. R. Kennedy, formerly coach at the University and at Haskell Institute, and at present coach at Washburn College in Topeka. Dr. Naismith, who was suggested by Dr. Kennedy as the proper man to codet such a school as to produce players of starting. "While I think that football training would be a good thing, and that the University could handle it, I do not think that the call for such a school is strong enough yet for us to establish one. There is the regular summer work for coaches and football men at Champions, Illinois where the better football men go. We have regular classes in coaching here during the winter sessions and during the spring seasons all at theences for the men who will coach next fall. I believe that this is all that there is any demand for at the present time."
"BACK TO NATURE" NEW FAD OF SALPHS. Witness Their Cow Bell.
The Sleep and Eat House, pardon me, the Sigma Alpha Epiphone house has something novel in dinner gongs. The cute new song around 1244 Ohio must listen to the gentle tinkling of a cow bell. One must realize though that a cowbell vigorously shakes does not emit the sound of a bassoon or the Bossie browsing in the clover field.
No doubt this music soothes the aching heart of their homesick freshmen whose bed-time lullaby was accompanied by this bovine interpretation of musical art. Perhaps there is to be a "back to nature" movement among the fraternities who would like to try the simple life for a while.

Prof. Carl L. Becker Attacks Practical" Ideals in "Standardized" Education
FIRST FACULTY LECTURE
Virtually a Farewell Talk to the Students of K. U.
It was an unusual and striking address that was given by Prof. Carl Becker Thursday afternoon when he set a brilliant precedent for the series of faculty lectures which are hereafter to become a University institution. His subject was "On Being a Professor" and he skillfully billed with a veiled irony that sank deep into the minds of his hearers and at the same time exposed the universal conception of professors as queer beings as a colossal falacy.
Professor Becker touched the point of his address in his opening remarks when he said, "A minor use of the newspapers and magazines is that they convey much information which one does not easily acquire by observation and experience alone. It was in this way, through the itinerary, that we first learned of the forlorn state of that ancient and once honorable company of College Professors. Notwithstanding the unselfish devotion with which they pursue a noble calling, so I was led to infer, professors are frequently without influence in their own communities, only by close and humiliating economies have a little free pocket money, and relatively privileged citizens can tranquil mind or properly nourish what the Germans call the Inner Life.
Having myself been for some time a professor, ploiding along contentedly enough for the most part, I was extremely sorry to hear—as I say from my own experience in the table situation." Speaking of his own advent into the ranks of the pedagogs, Professor Becker continued, "It was a lad that I came to know a fierce looking little old man in an ancient shiny frock coat who came every aspiring to prepare our fireweed. In my view he was not only by profession a weather prophet. He was a good wood sapper, but it was the common belief of the community that as a weather prophet he was visionary and an incurable idealist, inefficient to the last degree, and of no practical use. But with so many thought to be mildly demised; and by so some special popular instinct, everyone called him "Professor."
"When I went to college we did not know, or at least not with the same certainty as now, that spiritual benefits could be standardized, or the effeci- ces required in our work measured and tabulated and precisely set down in terms of material value.
"I was of a nature to be fascinated by my professors. Some few of them, and some more than others. The reason for this fascination being that contrary to all I had supposed, they were not mere road guides, uninterested in the country because they lived in heart. Rather they impelled by some uncontrolled inner demon to venture beyond the beaten path, scarcely knowing whither they were going, or what they might find; but pursuing still, seemingly interested in the quest itself, rather than in the end of it. And so they welcomed me, even something, even if I found it not. What I should seek, or where it might be found they never told me.
"The four allotted years were finished before I had more than begun to get the lay of the land. Less than ever did I desire to return to the known world, and tread in daily routine the dusty streets of Now and Away." When it came time always in this unknown country, so far removed from reality—From that moment I was a lost man. I was bound to become a professor.
"Professors, it need scarcely be pointed out, are extremely impractical people, absent minded, as even the most ill-motivated person continually occupied with profound intellectual problems, little concerned with the external world of reality, which together with their place in it, makes much disposed to take for granted."
PROF'S SALARY AN INVESTMENT
PROF'S SALARY AN INVESTMENT
The truth of this has been clearly explained when noted local statesmen and successful business men eloquently described how they worked on different festival occasions, clearly pointing out that the salary the state pays the professor should bring something in return.
“This new idea,” continued Mr. Becker, “I looked at for a long time from every point of view. A good deal of light was thrown on these problems by that other truth which was explained to us either more frequently or less accurately than the uncloistered outside world. We were assured that the knowledge acquired by students from learned professors was an excellent thing in a

The Daily Kananan aims to picture the undergraduate in the classroom as to go further than merely printing the text on paper. The University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be modest and to be aroused; to leave more serious problems to wise heads, in all, to teach and to qualify the students of the University.

JH. John 5, 4.
THE MAY FETE
Cloudy weather and an imperfect seating arrangement made the May Fete less of a success than it would have been under other conditions, but as it was few people went away dissatisfied. K. U. has an ideal spot for such occasions in the golf links. The intense green of the foliage which formed a background for the actors, the broad swell of the grass-covered hills and the cunning costumes of the choruses made the tore a thing to be remembered.
The ceremony of the Torch society was a fitting end for the afternoon program and the new Torches should realize the necessity of keeping the light burning.
"The Stuff of Laughter," Prot Percy B. Shostae's mediacal fantasy which was given at night was also hampered by the lowering weather The natural amphitheatre was full of spectators, however, and the play got across. The lines are clever and true to the time in which the scenes are laid.
THE ORPET TRIAL
A philosophical man is one who continues to believe that he's right after it's proved to him that he isn't.
The trial of William Orpet, University of Wisconsin student who is accused of having murdered a former sweetheart, opens today at Waukee, Michigan. The details of the sordid story, which have been extensively aired in the press, will again be brought forth.
Whether Orpet is guilty or not his story may well be followed by every man in the University of Kansas, for it contains a lesson that many young men need to learn. It is a lesson of the necessity of maturity—of looking before you leap. We have too many boys in college, who are accustomed to being forgiven for their transgressions because they are boys. Boys have no place in a University and the sooner parents realize this fact the sooner fewer college youths will go wrong.
THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT
COUNT
After all what are the things that make a senior class great? Surely not the number and the costliness of "tomb-stones" that might be left b the "campus-beautiful."
Several months back there was a child born to a member of the senior class. The president of the class officially appointed a committee which was to collect ten cents from each member of the class to go into a fund which was to be turned over to the child on becoming of age. The child was likewise declared the class baby.
It's so easy to start expeditions, most any "fordite" can be a starter, but it takes a "rosevelter" to make it succeed. The Chancellor, the Dean
of the College, and the Registrar were among the thirty that contributed to the fund, "that was to be." The chairman of the committee, though handicapped, struggled to make the class baby endowment an honor to the class, but like so many of the little things the "expedition" was a failure.
It was a good joke.
It is the little things that count.
THE MEN IN THE NEWS
Every day across the heads of the papers run references to a score of men we do not know. The Ferris Bill in Congress has created considerable interest but the question, "Who is Ferris," is seldom asked. It is nevertheless true that he like many others is not so remote an individual. Hon. Scott Ferris is in fact a native of Missouri.
In a vague way we have Gilford Pinchot located as a man of considerable note. His name may even bring to mind forests and forestry but his life, his work at Yale and his years of service in the conservation of the national forests are as a whole unknown to us.
We know that M. Stephanous Skouloudis is Greek premier but as a whole we are ignorant of the fact that he started his life as a shop employee. He worked into the banking business until he proved himself through the management of his private business, competent to hold his present place.
Truly who are the men in the news?

Sat smiling in the sun,
Her golden hair was all aglow,
Life's joys had just begun.
But ah! this little dandelion
Grew older day by day,
Her golden hair that shown so bright
Was now, alas! turned gray.

There came a little puff of wind,
And blew it all away.

GUTTER-SNIPE ETHICS
Editor Daily Kansan
There has recently been formed at the University of Kansas an organization known as the Anti-Cigarette Club. The said organization certainly must have a lofty purpose. None of us have any objections to a man joining a club which pledges its members to leave tobacco alone. Every man has a right to his own views about his conduct.
But recently the said organization wanted to become known—and it certainly has branded itself in the eyes of the students( one cannot say in what light)—and so took some action as regards smoking on the Hill. Some of the members of the organization have called on members of the Senate and asked that action be taken.
Now, action can be taken on most anything. The gentlemen don't seem to have formulated any definite plan. All they want is "action."
But if said attendants at the smoke-less smoker had stopped with that, they would not have won for their organization the nickname—"Creeper." But they have not stopped there. Their members have been seen at various places on the campus "snooping" around to see if they could find someone smoking. Like Sherlock Holmeses, these males—creep around on their hands and knees with a big glass looking for those who make smoke stacks out of their noses.
It really seems strange that a man who has been at the University even a month would so be led by his sentiments that he would come to this. We have no objection to a man joining an organization to keep himself from smoking, but do look with just a id utterment on a "squelter."
As one who does not use 'em; would raise the question as to whether any man of recognized importance in medical circles has given positive condemination, and has proved all of the willingness, and the subtle deadly awfulness which is indiscriminately assigned to tobacco in general?

One nice feature connected with the organization of this Anti-Cigarette League is the diversion furthest from the mouth, which varies arguments for and against it.

—We Believe in Advertising
We are pleased to notice that the Kansan is following out Billy Sunday's recommendation of giving front page space to questions of morality. We are certainly glad to see some man of the University who has sufficient backbone to stand up against this conventions are strong enough that he will not rest until he gets them in a conspicuous place on the front page. With our brother Anti-Cig, we wish to extend our welcome to the new "Guardian of the innocence of the men of this University." We realize that in the case of the summit of mechanical perfection men too are becoming more or less mechanical in their habits. We knew that they had reached the stage where they had to toot for the crossings but we did not realize that it was yet necessary for them to commit suicide. We agree that in case the Mexican nerial fleet should attack the hill, a murky atmosphere might aid us greatly in getting into the subterran can passages before the piercing eye of the enemy could overcome the gloom. The folks at home were very much interested in the outcome of our last page and we are sure that after reading the article of our friend (page one, May 11) they will not hesitate to send our younger brothers up here to imbibe this pure moral atmosphere.

Commission From Mississippi Visits K. U. to Investigate System
FAVORS K. U. JOURNALISM
"We Are Greatly Impressed With This Work" Governor
A party, consisting of Gov. Theo C. Bilbo, of Mississippi, Chancellor J. N. Powers of the University of Mississippi, W. H. Smith, State Superintendent of Public Instruction; Joe Kernick, Assistant Professor and the members of the Board of Trustees of State Institutions, Judge E. L. Bryan, of Vicksburg; J. S. Howerton, of Baldwin; W. C. Trotter, of Winona; and O. F. Lawrence, secretary of the Board, visited the University of Kansas Saturday while on a tour of inspection of the lending institutions of the Central West.
This commission, which was created by the last session of the state legislature of Mississippi for the purpose of recommending new school legislation, visited the University of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma A. and M. College, the Oklahoma Normal College, the Kansas State Agricultural College and the Kansas State Normal College, before coming here. They will visit, during the remainder of their three weeks tour, the universities, agricultural schools of Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and Michigan.
FOR BETTER SCHOOL LEGISLATION
FLAYS NEW EFFICIENCY
"I believe that it was better for the heads of the state institutions, members of the board and the representatives of the state legislature to take this trip together, in order that they might unite on their recommendations for a new school code to the next session of the state legislature," said Governor Bilbo, by way of explanation of the purpose of the tour.
"We have four state educational institutions in Mississippi, the university, with an enrollment of 600 at Oxford, the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Starkville, the Industrial Institute and College for girls at Columbus, and the All Corn College for negroes at Rodney. These four institutions are under the control of one board of trustees.
(Continued from page 1)
FOUR STATE SCHOOLS
IMPRESSED WITH K. U.
"We are greatly impressed with your organisation work here at the University and your department of journalism. These features of university work will probably be recommended to the legislature by the commission in its report to the legislature," added the governor.

way and even an indispensable part of a liberal education.
CONCERNED OVER YOU "I became more concerned than ever to know what needs paid by the state had to do with these young people, so terribly 'at ease in Zion,' who in ever increasing numbers assembled at the state university to educate themselves. The answer to this question was by no means easy. It was difficult to avoid the conclusion that if people wished to maintain a great public play ground where they could have fun, dangerous nor too oesthetic, might be acquired by the way, the professor was there to give them what they wanted. And I could not but cling fondly to the notion that most people would take it for granted that students who came to the university desired the higher education in a serious sense. I imagined that the professor must legitimize his institutional interests rather than with student interests, and give his best efforts to the few who were prepared for serious intellectual effort.
THE NEW ORDER "EFFICIENCY"
"With this order I should doubtless have remained sufficiently content, had it not been for a new order of ideas which finally made its way in the business world. As soon as I felt the edge of that word Efficiency I knew that there was sharp business to be done. A word so compact of every kind of practical implications, a word so self contained and yet so little leisurely, a word so metallic and polished, so hard and yet so resilient, would surely cut straight and ruthlessly through the heart of this world; would prick every bubble of speculative thinking, expose all soft idealism, and throw a white light into those obscure and shaded mokks of the mind where emotion keeps its day and energy is dissipated by lukewarm musicics and fruitfulness striving after vain thinks. Suddenly confronted by what I could tell will there little I could set down in exécution. There was nothing but to surrender at discretion; and to determine what an efficient education was like and then what one might do in the way of promoting it.
THE THREE TESTS
"There are three tests which I could be applied in determining the efficiency of a given form of education: Has it practical value? Is it measureable? Is its value equivalent to its cost. I soon came to see that these three tests are derived from a theory, which was quite difficult as the principle that education has to do primarily with things that are seen and temporal rather than with the things that are unseen and eternal. It is perhaps not surprising that this way of viewing the question had escaped me. For, as a student of history, I had been greatly impressed with the discipline of old Martin Luther and Socrates before him, attempted to draw between the inner or spiritual man and outer or physical man. Ignoring the fact that these men lived a long time ago, I came to regard this distinction as of great importance, as lying at the very basis of all right thinking about man and world. And talking about man's history showed nothing in development or progress that did not spring from a partial liberation of the inner from the outer man.
"I had come to think of our institutions of learning as devoted to promoting interests which humanity had always found indispensable, and to increasing as far as possible, that all things should be dom. or virtue, which as Socrates said, 'is surely the one true coin for which all things should be exchanged.'
RESOLUTION WAS REQUIRED
"Certainly it required much faith and resolution to engage in the business of education on these terms. Tangible and observable results were small. Who could with any show of evidence claim that charity increasest with knowledge of history, or that their study of the righteousness that exaltest a nation! It was indeed difficult on these terms for a professor to affirm his own worth.
"With what relief then, with what a comforting sense of assured results, might the professor turn to a theory which, identifying the inner with the outer man, concerned itself with visible and measurable realities!
educated who had the best paying job. The ablest professor was he who taught the most hours a day, the one who attracted the most pupils, or the one more encumbered than another with variegated and noted activities, or attended with the longest retinue of spoken or printed words.
"It was simply a matter of quantitative reckoning. The registration determined the rank of the university, and he was the most effective course. He was the ablest student who had the highest total of good grades. He was the best
"Another obvious feature of the efficient educational system was uniform. Method and system would make easy substitutes for inspiration. Education must be standardized. The university could be so organized and equipped that professors would be efficient in setting up classes and become educated from mere passive resistance to the established routine. No professor would conduct his classes differently from any other. All requirements would be the same. All students would then conform more nearly to the general average. And in that event might not one look forward hopefully to the happy day when pupils would enter the Latin class. The Oral Expression, being assured beforehand that the chances for acquiring the mental power stamped 'grade A' would be practically the same in one case as in the other.
A NEW TYPE OF MEN
"Of course, for such standardization one prime requisite was a new type of men, pedagogical experts, wide awake men, practical, hustling fellows, systematizers and methodologists, men of a different background or educational institution. His work, is seemed to me, would be the devising of perfect system as a substitute for personal responsibility, thus enabling the student, and the professor, too to rest his soul, to cast aside his own interests as a vicariously, meditative institution.
"Intellectual and moral capacity would obviously be open to all on more even terms when tested by external standards. There is good authority for believing that it is easier to fulfill the law than to live by the gospel; and the busy student who records much easier than self examination, as a method of testing conduct, or estimating attainments.
"And if there should be some who failed even on these terms, it was a fine thing to know that the fault was in the system and not in themselves. An anonymous writer in the 'Outlook' recently complained that an inequitable system of grading in his university discouraged him, that his professors were not inspiring, there were many social interactions, and that in general student opinion was comfortable to serious intellectual effort. For all these reasons he had lost his capacity for work. Obviously, if four years residence could give this result, the institution lacked efficiency.
JUST ONE MORE STANDARD
"Now that colleges are being standardized, however, it remains only to define intelligence and virtue in terms of concrete and observable standards of social judgment. Then any student, or professor either, even the most indifferent, may lie down at the lap of the university in expectation of being nursed into the achievement of something excellent.
"Of course we have not as yet reached this ideal situation; but the movement is nevertheless so well under way that I myself regard it, with
admiration, indeed; but also with a certain resignation, as one who knows that he is already of an older generation.
"With great resolution I have set about to acquire a stock of precise and practical ideas to banish useless dreams, to standardize my methods of instruction, and to assume at least such appearance of efficiency, the capacity of a smart person to pass muster before an inspector from the Carnegie Foundation. It may be that I am more efficient than I was, but, compared with the increasing number of the truly competent, I have the uncomfortable sense of being only an imitation, at best, no more than anything just as good as the genuine.
MEN OF SUPER-QUALITIES
"So I deluded myself with formulating a kind of salve morbidity suited to one who has in a measure succumbed to men of super-qualities. I realize it and am resigned on the whole that I shall never be an efficient professor in a medical school. I will do what I can but hope to keep close in my sheltered corner, and to avoid if possible, the Survey and Questionnaire, knowing well that they would expose all my counterfeit values to the curious world. Already I remind myself, and in the future I doubt not I shall remind myself more and more, of the little old man in a shinny frock coat who used to come in the spring to figuratively speaking, make a good living sawing wood. But like him also, I forsee myself still nourishing
certain fantastic ideas which the most charitable will regard as eccentricities, and the unfriendly as vain imaginations. Such is the irony of fate that I should come to resemble the old 'professor' whom I in my youth thought so admirable! As yet, it is true, I do not habitually wear a frock coat. But it is said that everything comes to him who waits."

O'Leary and Pattinson to Get Record Cups for Feats
(Rv. Caroll Sproull)
Kansan is considering challenging Bob Simpson to a track meet. But even at that it would be a pretty big risk for the Jayhawkers. And then his majesty, Mr. Simpson, met the Kansans Saturday but then he was sent home early—he only took five firsts. He may get a chance to do better next time.
STILL WANTED MORE
The fact that they were satisfied does not mean that they would not have taken more if they could have gotten it. They had the meet won long before the relay race was started but that did not keep the Tigers from winning this race. This is why this race. Every race was a real battle except the two mile and Missouri did not have a man within hearing distance of Statler ad Groene as they came up the straightway arguing which one would take the first place in the event. It was a regular fixture at Missouri and Missouri opposition and it took them ten minutes and thirty-four seconds to settle the argument.
On the Kansas side of the dual engagement there is no star to rave about as the Missourians do about their hero, Simpson. Capt. Bonnie Reber captured eight points—a first and a second in the weight events but he did not pull off the sensational. Possibly O'Leary and Pattinson deserve the individual glory. These two gentlemen put a couple of KU rugby coaches and now Coach Hamilton will have to add their names to the list of record cups which he will have to purchase for his track team this year.
O'LEARY STARRED
O'Leary ran one of the prettiest races of the day when he finished eight yards in front of Wyatt in the quarter mile. The star Kansan got the jump right at the start and with Humpy Campbell running second Wyatt and Daggy had too far to go to get a chance at victory. The tailback by campbell after fighting the first half was unable to place. The time of the race was 50.1-5 which gives O'Leary a record by two-fifths of a second.
PATTINSON MAKES RECORD
Pattinson set up another K, U. record in the pole vault when he tied with the Missouri captain, Powell. A record of 11 feet $8 \frac{1}{4}$ inches will take the place of the 11 feet $6 \frac{1}{2}$ inches record by Woodbury in 1912.
Simpson started the meet off with a victory in the 100-yard dash with Remick, Missouri, second. Kansas was then expected to come back in the mile race and Gareth Wilson won fine race with Gableman, Tiger, on his heels but Herriott let the other two get too big a lead on him and failed to Grady's time was only two seconds slower than the K. U' record. Then came the hurdles and from that point the race was larger. The relay looked like it would stop the increasing Tiger score but it failed. Schulte changed his order of running in this race and the change was successful. Pittam ran first for the Tigers and got a ten yard lead. He went up the stretch and Gave O'Leary a three yard lead. But Wyatt got by O'Leary on the back stretch and led him on the second curve. This did not agree with O'Leary so he left Wyatt five yards on the final hundred yards. Rodkey took this lead on Daggy and had the third and last. The Kansas star had run too hard against Rider in the half mile and Daggy had no trouble in outrunning Rodky.
MISSED TREWEEKE
The loss of Trewecke was keenly felt. The Kansas jumper was unable to enter the meet although he honored the team with his presence on the sidelines. The new trainer and the coaches will leave nothing undone toward before the Agrie meet Friday. But the fact remains that there is little hope that he will get in the going any more this season.
Kansas will get another chance at Missouri when they return to the Tiger town for the Valley meet next week. And he'll be as large on the gold and black not be as large on the gold and black of the board next time.

FRESHMAN COACH SICK
Lefty Is Recovering From Attack of Blood Poison—Will Be Out in Few Days
A bad case of blood poison confire-
lefty Sproult to his bed Friday after-
noon. He has been unable to be out
since. The latest report is that he is
coming out of the attack very nicely
and is almost past danger.
The trouble started through infection in the toe. A torn toe nail had caused a wound that was hard to treat and infection set in without his realizing the danger. Before a physical call, that helped spread through his system causing a high fever. Prompt treatment was given and the spread of the disease was checked but it will take some time for Lefty to throw off all traces of the attack. It may be several days before he will be able to be out again. Sproul graduated from the College of Law in 1950 and entered in the law school this year. He is coaching the freshman baseball team this spring.

MANY MOTHERS VISIT
Fraternities and Sororities Entertain for Parents This Week
ATTEND FETE AND PLAY
Give Theatre, Motor, Card, and Dinner Parties for Visitors
Mothers' Day was observed by the fraternities and sororities of the University on both Saturday and Sunday. The gathering took place at the visiting mothers in form of theatre line parties, dinners, motor parties and card parties, with the May 19 meeting of Prof. Shostak's play "The Stuff of Laurie" as the chief form of diversion.
Most of the mothers, did not come to Lawrence to see playms and to attend parties—they came to see their boys and girls, to meet the daily companions of their children, and to find out how they were getting along.
Carnations were worn by the University men Sunday as an appropriate observance of that day set up at the mission of maternal love and devotion.

Miss Thiessen discussed the use of the various liquids, grades of flour and kinds of yeast which may be used; the difference between the long processes of fermentation, and the temperatures which are most desirable for baking.
"While a very desirable product may be made with water alone, milk, either oil or skimmed, is advisable because it furnishes more nutritive material and at the same time makes a whiter loaf," she said. "Potato emphasizes the process on account of the stimulating action on the yeast."

ADVISES CHEAP FLOUR
Emma Thiessen, '16 Col-Ed., gave an interesting lecture before M. Clarence Estes' class in milling and baking Tuesdays afternoon in the demonstration laboratory of the department of home economics.
A very satisfactory loaf was exhibited which had been made from a very low grade flour. Miss Thiessen used this bread to use a high grade bread flour coating $2.25 for a 50-pound sack when such good bread may be made from the lower grades which cost only $1.70, or for a 30-point sack. The lower grades also contain more of the two important nutrients protein and mineral matter.

KANSAS TOOK SECOND
Saturday's Game — Missouri's First Defeat—Jayhawkers, 9 to 5
9 to 5
TIED FOR FIRST PLACE
Deciding Series for Championship Here This Week
Missouri missed an awfully good chance to take two victories from Kansas in the same day by losing the baseball game to Kansas Saturday afternoon 9 to 5. But it was not Mission's game, the fact that the Kansas were fighting the 8 to 4 Tiger victory on Thursday and they had a determination to win.
The game was postponed from Friday. But by burning oil on the field the diamond was fixed in condition for the game Saturday afternoon. It proved to be more of a drawing card for Rollins Field than the high school track meet which was in progress when the game started.
USED TWO TWIRLERS
USED TWO TWIRLERS
Missoura used two pitchers in an effort to strike heavy slugging of the Kansans but to no avail. Eighten hits were registered by McCarty's men as compared with ten from the men of Brewer, George Smee was the hero for the Kansas team both on the mound and in the role of slugger. He wielded the big stick for four hits out of five times at bat. Taylor, Kansas, was next with the bat registering three hits out of nine. Taylor were the Tiger pitchers off and they打了 the Kansas squaddl although the former had won the game from Kansas only two days previous.
TIGERS' FIRST DEFEAT
This was the first time the Missouri team has tasted defeat this season out of fourteen games played. Kansas tasted her first Conference defeat two days before at the hands of Missouri. Thus the Valley championship is tied with Arkansas in that KKU students will have a chance to see the title decided when Brewer brings his men to Lawrence this week for two games. Either team will have to have both games to have clear title to the pennant while an even break would mean the figuring up of a comparative standing of the different Valley teams.

Most High School Visitors Were Guests of the Tigers Last Week
OVER 150 ARE EXPECTED
Hamilton Relies Upon Students to Show Athletes Good Time
The advance dope on the annual high school invitation track meet to be held on McCook Field Saturday afternoon indicates that the largest meet of many a year will be held. The list of entries is very incomplete as yet but every mail brings in a complete set of entries, and compete but the complete number cannot be determined until the entries close later.
A FULL TEAM FROM K. C.
Invitations were sent out last week to the winners of first places in the annual interscholastic meet held two weeks ago. In addition to this number the high schools of Kansas City will send full teams as will the St. Joseph and the Skokie teams in the state may enter the meet but the expenses will be paid only of those men who received invitations from the athletic association. The association will pay the railroad fare of ten men from each of the Kansas City high schools but the schools may enter as many more as they want in the meet.
In addition to the Kansas City teams will be a number of track stars from Missouri and Kansas. Clarence Williams, a red-headed star from M. Vernon, Missouri, has been invited and his entry is expected to take part in the third of the former captain, Cupid Haddock, will enter the dashes and the weight events. Grissom of Syracuse will appear for the fourth time as the winner of the dashes. He and young Haddock will put up a real face. Barrett Castle of St. Joe is another star with whom he will light clothes for the races Saturday.
USE REGULAR RULES
COME HERE FROM COLUMBIA
The meet will be run under the regular Missouri Valley Interscholastic rules. Any high school can enter as many men as they like but they will only be allowed to start three men in each event. No entry fee is charged in this meet. Three special changes have been made not made in the interscholastic meet two weeks ago. The mile run and discus throw will be held separate from the rest of the events on the program and the winners of these will not be allowed points to count in the regular scoring of the meet. The reason for this is found in the fact that the Kansas City high schools do not have these events and they would be hounded if they were counted. The other runs where two separate races are run each counting the regular points. This is made necessary because of the large number of entries in this event.
COME HERE FROM COLUMBIA
Most of the students who will come for this meet were in Columbia last week for the meet which the University of Missouri held for the high school folks. Kansas students their chance to show that Academy a good time and Manager Hamilton is leaving no steps unturned to see that his institution properly taken care of. In this work he must depend to a great extent on the students of K. U. and it is to them that he is looking to get the men lined up for K. U. next fall.
The list of men who received invitations to the big meet are given below in order that students may be able to find a man or two whom he will look after and see that he is given special care when he is a leader of the Kansas City enlisted军校. He will not be received yet but will be published as soon as received. The list of invitations include: Clarence Williams, Mount Vernon, Mo.; Barrett Castle, St. Joseph, Mo.; Walter and Crigges, Latham; Powell Carson and Grikes, Wichita; Roosevelt Attie, Gross, Jaye; Horse, Alma; Simpson, Barnard; Hunter, Rutford and Carson, Sumner County; Michael, Eaton and Jones, Neodeshia; Lashmet and Moore, Humboldt; Gaston, Pratt County; Grissom Syracuse; McKinley, Seranton; Colo.

JUNIORS TO PUBLISH CONTRIBUTORS' NAMES
Collections for the junior memorial fund have been nearly completed "All the money is to be turned in within a few days," said Willard M Glaseo, chairman of the junior memorial fund committee this morning.
DEVELOPS EVERGREENS
"Those juniors who have promised to pay their dues and have not done so," he continued, "can turn their hands over to me. If they want to have them do so then I can close up my books and turn the money over to the registrar for next year. A list of names of those who have paid their dues will be published in a few days."
"Gym Exercises Make Marked Improvement in Freshmen" H. A. Lorenz
The required gym work for University freshmen is having its desired constructive effect. Recent remeasurements of a large number of first year men have shown that the physical exercise they are required to take has made a marked improvement in their physical make up.
H. A. Lorenz, instructor in physical education, said this morning that in over ninety per cent of the cases examined the men of the freshman class have been greatly improved physically and mentally, while few cases there has been no noticeable improvement, but this is partially the result of illness.
At the beginning of the year all freshman men were given physical examinations in order that proper corrective exercises might be assigned to them. The first time these were made in an attempt to discover the effect the exercise is having.
In order to procure further data on the effects of certain exercises upon the participants, Mr. Lorenz has been taking his gym classes down to McCook field and working the men out in the shot-put, high jump, 100-yard dash and other events of the regular track and field program. Because the athletes are well trained and the fact that the athletic field has been needed for Varsity practice, Mr. Lorenz has not been able to continue his work during the past week.
As a whole, the data procured this year has been entirely gratifying to the effort made, and the instructors of physical education now have "black and white" proof of their theories concerning the constructive effects of properly supervised exercise.
INVITATIONS ARE HERE
Seniors Can Get Them at Check Stand This Week
The senior invitations are ready—2,000 of them. They will be distributed to the seniors who have ordered them Thursday, Friday and Monday mornings at the Fraser Hall check stand from 10:30 to 12:30. Like the Jayhawkers, there is a security of invitation chairman, of the invitation committee, there are only seventy orders that have not already been disposed of.
The invitations this year are printed with both leather and paper covers on which appears a picture of the Dyke Museum, Views of Fowler Shops, Green Hall and a panorama of the campus are contained in the three-fold insert of the invitation along with the engraved invitation, commencement program, list of class officers and names of the graduates.
TWO TRY FOR WEST POINT
Kenneth Wright and George Woodward Seek Appointment
Kenneth Wright, '17 Engineer and a Private in Company M is designated to take the preliminary examination, given at Topeka May 18. Twenty-eight men, one from each militia organization over the state will take the examination, the three receiving the highest grades will take the regular examination, along with representatives from the other states, the final two appointments will be made July 10. Of those taking the regular examination, twenty-two will receive appointments to West Point.
George (Rook) Woodward, freshman engineer was given the appointment from the downtown hospital corps by Major Phillips.
Due to the increase in the army, the number of appointments to West Point has been increased. The places are on a strictly competitive basis and Captain Jones says the ones getting appointments will earn them as the final examination will be very severe.
Mrs. Barnes Mosa of Shanghai, China has arrived in Lawrence and is visiting her son, Sidney Moss, '16 Law, at the Kanza house.

Engineering Faculty Keep Card Index of Students'
Records
A personal record of the students is the latest innovation to be introduced by the engineering faculty. The record, which is filed in card index form, consists, first of all, of permanent mail address, age, date of entrance and graduation, and other routine matters. It even includes the average state of health of the student while in school, together with a note on the kind of position he wants and the degree obtained. The grades for all his subjects are filed and kept for reference on these cards as well as in the office files.
This grading will be of great value to a prospective employer looking for an engineer. The grade on character must be high enough to get along with his fellows; in industry, the system of his work is considered; while in initiative and judgment, care is taken to give no credit to the engineer and is expected previous experience. By a glance at this card the employer may know just what he may expect of the engineer if he hires him and may rely upon the degree instructors in basing his opinion.
Wednesday: "And But for You."
Thursday: "The Dread of Respondi-
ness."
But the new feature is the personal record kept for reference and furnished to a prospective employee. Once a semester six instructors grade each student upon his character, native ability, industry, accuracy, reliability, judgment, initiative, personal appearance, and use of English. The grades of these instructors, which run from 1 to 9 correspond in a number of ways; their severity are averaged and the amount is noted on the card. At his graduation, the student's grades are averaged for the four years and filed.
Further plans for the semi-centennial celebration will be put off until next year. This was decided at a meeting of the executive board of the semi-center, and it will be morning in the Chancellor's office.
Having it next year will make it a year late. The committee will decide next fall on the nature of the celebration. It will probably be held during commencement next year.
...
Subjects:
Probably no man with a good record at the University will be denied a position by an employee. The system did not originate here and no one in it could engage in such a know where is came from. Manhattan has used it for some time as well as several of the larger schools. When the University decided to adopt it the faculty of the School of Englengish had been established and then selected this one as the most nearly fitting their needs.

Water Carnival With Races To Be Staged Saturday Morning on Kaw
PLAN SIX EVENTS IN ALL
Opportunity for Any K. U. Bond Owner to Compete
Although the annual water carnival which has been a feature of the commencements weeks of the past has been canceled for 1916, this spring will not pass without the many canoe owners among students having a chance to show their ability on the water.
J. F. Troutman, sophomore College, announced today the details of a canoe regatta which will be staged Saturday morning on the Kaw river from Duluth to Tahoe. With Dr. James Naismith, Prof. E. Uputman, E. J. Pierson, and H. A. Lorenz, in charge of the details, Troutman said this morning that it was expected that at least thirty canoes would be entered and that so success would the regatta prove that if it were made an annual K. U. at fair.
A total of six events, men's singles 300 yards; men's doubles 440 yards; mixed doubles 100 yards; war chest 88 yards; cinder blocks 95 yards; and baskets are recalculated, place will count for three points and second place two points, and the individual or team scoring the highest in both points will be awarded a loving cup.
The time set for starting is 9:30 a'clock Saturday morning and the finish line will be at the Tennessee street pier. Entries can be made either with Naisimh or with coumarin. Dr. Naisimh Kentucky street, Bristol, W. of the weekend, 2223 W. of the weekend high water was reached this morning, there is little chance that flood conditions on the river will interfere with the regatta.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH IS MOST POPULAR IN K.
The department of English appears from the records in the Registrar's office to be more popular with the students than any of the other departments of languages. The number of majors in each department are as follows: English 122, German 68 Latin 33 and Greek . A large number of majors in these subjects intend to teach in high schools in the state.
Many reasons are given by students who change their major during their junior year. Some persons change in order to teach other subjects, others become interested in other departments. One student's reason for changing was "For enjoyment's sake." Some students complain about not understanding the rule for selecting majors and consequently they pick the wrong subjects. This gives them a great deal of trouble on.
ONLY FORMAL IN NAME
Freshmen and Sophomore Women The Men of the Hour Thursday Night
Mystery? deep and hazy mystery shrouds the details of the affair to be given Saturday night in Robinson Gymnasium. Trust woman to find a woman if she particularly wants others of her kind. The hostesses of this Spring Formal for women do want all the women of the University to attend, so the first party of its kind ever held at the University of Kansas.
"We would like to see every girl in the University at the dance," said Miss Gladys Elliott this morning, "if you are an upper class woman and fail to get an invitation from a freshman or sophomore just ask some other upper class woman and send in your name to me before Thursday or Friday. We hope to make this Women's Sprin formal an institution at K. U. and an institution that will bring all of us together in a spirit of congeniality. I hope the girls will get their invitations early, so the refreshment committee will know how many they must serve, for we are going to have good eats."
Not a word of the surprise would Miss Elliott disclose. Some there are who say it will be a rival of the Soph hippie in brilliancy of entertainment. At Athens, where they were all will they bring to interest all who come whether they care to dance or not. Freshman and sopomone women who are the escorts are planning to wear dark skirts and shirt waists to imitate men the sophomore is wearing; dress will be in keeping with the spirit of the party. Some of the classes will appear in costume.
Oh Those Lights.

Percy, with his cap and bells, and Chauncy, with his arms full of swords, armor and gauze dresses fluttered wildly around the co-ed dressing rooms at the improvised Greek theatre. I said co-eed—the they had two walls—if they had been on other side the audience could have—but, anyway the Potter Lake embankment helps protect the artist's costumes, such as Spring, the power house and various clumps of bushel/ did duty.
Perhaps the audience was a trifle chilly, who can say? but the actors were partial to raincoats and shawls during their less strenuous moments. The earth served for tables and chairs and as for mirrors, they weren't Nevertheless the actors managed to get on the stage properly when the beetles swarmed around them to manage; they had to be whirlup and hallowed at on the changes. Otherwise the electricians did excel lentily.
Did the audience notice the recessionals and processionals through the dark forest? The actors did. Some of the stubble is only two inches high but oftener it is six. The "tarn" the trolls crawled through reminded them slightly of the studded couches the Hindu does pennance on.
For a first nighter all the lines were good but if the cues had been longer the audience could have seen them. Some had to be coaxed. Some pulled and some pushed onto the stage acclimatized, but then three methods had to be resorted to to get Percy's curtain. Maybe tonight he will make a little speech for us.

TRUTH ABOUT THE CIG
Chemistry Professors Discuss Scientifically Effects on Smokers
SAY EVIL IS EXAGGERATED
Find Garicette Tobacco Less Harmful Than Other Forms
"A cigarette is less harmful than any other form of smokes." This statement about the much maligned "coffin-nail" was made yesterday to a Kansan reporter by a professor in the department of chemistry, who is privately upon telephone and its effects on the human system. "The objection to cigarette smoking," he said, "is largely a psychological one, for the cigarette does not contain the large amount of nicotine that it is popularly supposed to have by the uninitiated. The analysis of cigarette tobacco shows that ninety per cent of cigarettes are destroyed and destroyed in the end of the cigarette, and that the remaining amount may be less than one per cent.
HARMLESS AS A HOT STOVE
BLAKENESS AS A HOT STOVE
The poisonous effects that result from combustion which cause to the formation of carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas which results from incomplete combustion during smoking. The amount of the poisonous gas thus formed however, is so very small that it is not as injurious to the smoker as is being seated in a room by a red hot stove."
Further expert testimony was obtained from a professor in the school of pharmacy, who has done extensive research on the subject of the physiological effects of tobacco. The sore throat which most cigarette smokers have" he said, "is due to glycerine—the same product that is used in face creams and other cosmetic products but put into tobacco to create it pliable and soft. When the cigarette is burned this glycerine is converted into acrolein, which is irritating to the mucous membrane."
"Cigarette tobacco, however, is much lighter than other tobaccoes because it contains less tarry constituents than pipe tobacco. A pipe is a very filthy form of a smoke because the stem stores up this tarry matter along with other distillation products which come from the burning tobacco. Many have an erroneous idea that cigarette papers are injurious to health and should be bleached them. There is absolutely no difference in the effect, and from a physiological standpoint the chemicals would improve them."
DANGER NOT IN CIGARETTE
Dean L. E., Sayre, of the school of pharmacy, said when asked for an opinion, "The reason cigarettes are likely to be injurious is not due to the cigarette itself but because of its convenience and ease with which it can be smoked." It is a greater temptation to smoke more frequently, but even then the cigarette is not as injurious as other smokes because cigarette tobacco is much lighter than other tobacco.
"Of course," continued the dean, "if people will smoke large quantities of tobacco in any form it will produce poisoning. If we give people in large quantities, for in that case indigestion results, and from indigestion comes poison which gradually accumulates, and which may result in forms of auto-infexication or vomiting, more so in extreme—much more so in fact than is experienced by a moderate smoker.

The Daily Kansan aims to plea for students to go to the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the text on paper; to the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be generous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to participate in faculty, to the students of the University.
TUESDAY, MAY 16, 1916.
LIBRARY READINGS UP?
That is a question bothering many a student these days; and the librarian and her cohorts can answer the question better than anyone.
Just about this time several hundred students begin to remember that they are supposed to be in certain classes about the University and that the day of reckoning is not far away. Twelfth-hour students are working night and day on notes and it has been necessary to put on extra library help.
THE PRICE OF TIME
There should be a lesson in this; but, what's the use? It happens this way every year.
The time of parting is nearly upon us and we are very sad. From farm, village and city we came last fall to learn wisdom at the feet of the gods on Mount Oread. We have been four months and a half and a glorious time has been ours.
From late in the morning until late in the night we have frolicked about the heights. Our lives have been free from care and we have been fed on the best that the town affords. We have slept, whenever we did sleep, on beds of virginal white and downy softness and we have been clad in purple and fine linen. For entertainment we have had picture shows, dates, theatres, football games, basketball games, games of other sorts and occasionally a class or two. The time has come when we must leave it all behind and therefore our hearts are as lead within our bosoms.
Who, you ask, are we?
We are the disciples of folly, the followers of frivolity, the worshipers of pleasure. Our heaven is amusement and our hell is work. We are a heterogeneous body. We come from everywhere and when our vacation is ended we go back to the places from whence we came. In a week we will leave you, not because we are tired of the University but because the University is tired of us. We will think of you in days to come and hope that you have profited by knowing us.
EDUCATION AND DOLLARS
The time of year has arrived when University graduates begin to put a money value upon an education. What is this thing called a university education going to bring me, is the question that the majority of the graduating class are asking themselves now. In spite of the many bits of comfort handed over at various intervals by old, experienced alumni it is a difficult thing for the abut-to-graduate student to convince himself that the prime worth of an education is not to be measured in terms of silver dollars.
Of all the moments of his college life, the most discouraging are here at hand for the student who is about to leave the academic walls after sixteen years and go out to face the world, armed only with a university education. In future years when facing the world is an established day's work, the present time will seem full
of foolish cares, but at present these worries loom as large as mountains. Time, only, lends a perspective.
WHAT ABOUT FATHER?
The average father succeeds pretty well in discharging his duty to society. He labors along persistently and quietly for six days a week that his family may be provided for; he stands between his family and the police, the school, the office of the rent, the taxes, the grocery and coal bills; he admonishes the boy and advises mother, seeking always to make his burden lighter; he works unceasingly, without complaint fighting scheming to the end that his family may be assured comfort and relief from his problems, if he somehow fails, but he keeps all things cheerfully, stolpid, stubbornly plugging along to the end.
The sacrifices that must be made he makes willingly. The boy must go to college and the girl must have music lessons; something must be cut and removed from his life, that perishes by the way side. He is not so poetical a figure as mother, not so demonstrative in his affections, so elated in pleasure, so deprest in grief. And yet we will remember him when we come home there, that stands out, clear and distinct, as one of youth's happiest impressions...Indianapolis News.

POET'S CORNER
Robert Green was a true Eliza bethan Englishman. He was born about 1560 in Norwich and belonged to a family of standing. He received his education at Cambridge, securing the degrees of A.B. and A.M. After the completion of his college career, he moved to Italy where the dissolute habits that later proved his ruin. He died in 1592 after an orgy.
Later he went to London where he was an author of plays and a penner of poems and love pamphlets. His first work, "The Repentances," the Elizabethan period, "the "Repentences," one of his first works were written to warn the young男 of the unhappy example of his own life. The works published by Green are: A Wife of Wit, Never Too Late Menaphen. His best production was Philomela.

CRITICISE "COMMON SENSE"
Where a silent stream did glide
Muse I made of many things
That the mind in quiet brings
I 'gan to think how some men deem
Gold is their God, and esteem
Honor is the chief content
Life like the ocean that eat
And some others do contend;
Others hold their no wealth
Compared to perfect health
Some man's mind in quiet stands,
When he is lord of many lands,
But I did sigh, and said all this
When he was born,
And in my thoughts I did provove
Naught so sweet is true love.
In response to the article, Common Sense and Cigarettes, appearing in this column in a recent issue, I wish to congratulate the author as getting off one of the best examples of a pussyfooting argument that has ever dared to creep into print through the means of an honest K. U. woman. The most prominent fallacy in her argument is this. "There is no institution that is more popular than the human race that is more populous than those loved and has fewer friends than the poor little cigarette." Now is this truth? Now, follows the next step in the argument which shows that she herself doesn't believe the statement
to be true; because she says "The women who have lately given vent to their feeling in the denunciation of the cigarette are voicing popular opinion." Where is the logic? If the cigarette is so very popular here then why would its denunciations be one of these statements are true the one nullify the other. I think both of them are falsehoods.
Another statement I dare her to prove is this, "Few of us have not been reenamed in the fumes of father's hair. Now I want to ask her unsophisticated girl if she thinks that whatever her father and brother might be capable of doing should be tolerated by a woman who lives every other man for her suitor's sake."
Should she make the degree of moral perversion to which a brother might fall and often has fallen the guage for every other young man? The answer is not a simple theory but there was a streak of moral perversion in himself.
Construing this article from its four corners, it is obvious that this woman either stands-for a double standard in society or she will have to admit that yellow fingers in University womenhood is perfectly proper.
Now if she stands for a double standard in society and yet is not going to put the burden of self restraint on the girl, I want to ask who is going to "put on the brakes." Its a proven fact that cigarette smokers' brakes allow things to slide down hill pretty rapidly.
Now here is where she "pusy-foots." She admits that a cigarette smoker shouldn't be tolerated in the workplace, because she asks to smoke, yet criticizes the girl who asks a boy to be a gentleman in her presence. To be a gentleman ought to be sufficient reason for any girl not to smoke or to smoke in her presence is it not?
She says she has enjoyed cigarette smoke in the bath room and then granting if the boy likes the smoke also, the limit of their enjoyment is a sufficient criterion for decency. In her arguments she says nothing about her mother as being a criterion. Why shouldn't she be considered?
After reading between the lines on, this article it wouldn't surprise me if this article is either one of two things, a paid ad, or from a little by two for sissy man. It reads like a paid ad, looks like a paid ad, tastes like a paid ad and whew! I believe it is a paid ad because it's reason I have to thank have it is the tenor of the whole argument and of this in particular, "But the truth of the whole matter is this, try it out on your sweetheart" she probably won't care because her father and brother smokes and besides its no worse for the boys to smoke than it is for the girls to spend small fortunes for cokes and sundays." then to cap the climax this cynical remark they must object to the tender mannerhood. That's regrettable it isn't. Yes sir, I believe the truth of the whole matter lies in the fact that the girls will have to object to smoking to prove their good breeding and respectable womanhood.
DUFFUS CORRECTS STATEMEN
The Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Imper Sir.
I note in your issue of Friday, May 12th, a story relating to the high cost of living which is alleged to have come from one of my classes. No student in any of my classes ever handed in a paper such as the one you refer to and I don't believe that any of my students would be guilty of such a act. I have had no excuse and at best, a very feeble joke. I have had no occasion to make the comment ascribed to me and I did not make it.
The students whom t have had in my classes deport themselves in the class-room like men and women—not like high-school freshmen—and it is, to say the least, unjust to them and to the instructor to publish stories like the one in question even as well-meant pleasantry.
Jack.
In passing I cannot refrain from remarking that it is regrettable that the columns of the Daily Kansan must be padded with cheap vauids ville stuff when important lectures are presented at University and other University events of real importance pass unreported in the Kansan.
Broad-Minded.
We naturally expect crooks, graffers and booze sympathizers to be little Billy Sunday, but it's surprising how much the University professors in the University attack his great work, because his methods do not conform to their cut and dried ideas of helping people to live better. If we can't boost let's keep quiet.

WHAT'S IN A NAME!
K. U. Buildings Bear Names of Persons Connected With College History
"From our ancestors come our names, from our virtues our honors." The fact that ten of the University buildings were named for persons closely connected with the University shows that the old proverb is true not only of individuals, but also of institutions.
SNOW HALL. 20 YEARS OLD
SNOW HALL, 20 YEARS OLD
Snow Hall, erected by the state in 1886, was the first of the buildings to receive a name. It was called in honor of Prof. Francis Huntington and was founded years of his life in the service of the institution. Eleven years of the time he was chancellor of the University.
Fraser and Blake Halls were given their names a few years later. Fraser was named for and planned by General John Fraser, the first active chancellor of the University. Lucien L. Blake, for many years professor of English, provided the plans for the building which was afterwards named for him.
LIVED IN TENT ON MUSEUM SITE
LIVED IN TENT ON MUSEUM SITE Dyche Museum of Natural History erected by the state was named in honor of Prof. Louis L. Dyche whose devotion to his work in the University helped make it possible for the institution to have one of the best museums in the world. He student in the University Mr. Dyche lived for a time in a tent pitched on the spot where the building now stands.
Spooner Library was erected through the generosity of William B. Spooner, of Boston, a great uncle of Dr. Francis H. Snow. The chancellor's residence was built from the same bequest.
Fowler Shops were given by Mr. George A. Fowler, of Kansas City, Mo., as a memorial of his father. The efforts of Prof. Lucien L. Blake.
WOMAN DONATED LAND FOR GYM
Mrs. Sara T. D. Robinson, wife of the
land in the vicinity of the gymnasium
in the University. The women's
department of the gymnasium was
dedicated to Mrs. Robinson and the men's department to Governor Robin-
son as a physician as well as a politician.

A SPECIAL FOR BILLY
University Students and Lawrence People May Go To K. C. Thursdav

A special train-boat of Lawrence people and University students will go to Kansas City on Thursday to hear a lecture by the late Christopher Endearay Union go through. This means that at least 75 persons must make the trip, for the Santa Fe requires that many fares guard them before they will put on a special.
Reservations will be made at the Tabernacle for all who go. Otherwise it might be impossible to get seats, since they are sometimes all over the trip should be purchased immediately so that the arrangements may be completed. They may be obtained from the following persons: Frances Irvine, Odis Burns, Oarp Woodpuff, Madeline Carter, Ernest Gippert, Christopher Foster, Dr. Arthur Braden, Miss Anne Gittins, and F.W.

WILL STUDY COTTON RAT A BREAKFAST TRAGEDY
Pratt Selected for Summer Camp of Zoo Students
The summer camp of the zoology students will be held in the southeastern counties of the state. The first few weeks will be spent in the study of the cotton rat, a pest that has recently become a problem in Kansas. This rat entered the state about three years ago and since then has spread over an area of about 150 square miles. The rats sent to Victor Householder to study the methods of the rat and to try to determine a means of getting rid of it.
The class from here will be under Professor O'Roke of the department of zoology. During the middle part of the summer they will go to Pratt and study the worm parasites of fish, at the state fishery. They will also make a study of the ground squirrels, gophers, and field mice.
During the latter part of the summer Householder will join the party and the rest of the time will be spent in the study of lizards and snakes.
Mrs. W. C. Dumm of Junction City arrived in Lawrence Friday, called here by the serious illness of her daughter, Marjorie, fa19. Miss Dumm was taken ill with appendicitis; she was so much improved. She will be able to attend classes by the latter part of the week.

BONeless CHICKEN THERE
The play which has proved a great success recently in Kansas City is a takeoff on breakfast food and canned food fads. Chanticleer, the king of the chicken dishes by Fradiah dresses as a car of boneless chicken, Chanticleer's son, Omet, is in love with Outa mealiea, who is attired like a box of Quaker Oats, and who goes insane and bursts. It is all carried out with appropriate songs in the true musical comedy style.
"This is a new venture," said Miss Alice Winston, the head of the local association. "For the past ten years we have raised the money for this scholarship either by dues or at the annual luncheons, but we decided to try and give more than fifty dollars this year and I think we will succeed."
Mrs. Ona Winant Borland, a prominent Kansas City woman, is the author of this comic opera and has consented to let the Association of Collegiate Alumnae borrow the unique costumes for the play.
"Mrs. S, B. Daines has helped wonderfully with directing the cast in their short two weeks of rehearsals," she said, screamingly funny in their parts."

Coach Hamilton considers the present signature system used with the season athletic tickets sufficient to have a good chance of winning ferring their tickets. At Conell University students are compelled to have their photographs placed upon their season tickets. Hamilton does not know that such a system is necessary here.
"Students under this plan transfer their tickets when they want to by simply transferring their photos to them. You can also have there been fewer tickets taken up this year than before on account of two people using the same ticket. However this is the time of the year when most of the tickets are taken up. Students receive each ticket by the original purchaser has proven satisfactory here."

Have You Ever Known a Contented Person?
THE KANSAN IS NOT CONTENT WITH ITSELF
If you have, that person was, more than likely, too lazy to exert himself enough to be dissatisfied.
BUT WE ARE TRYING
Members of the Kansan Board realize that the paper is not perfect. Although held in high esteem among editors of college papers all over the United States and prominent journalists of Kansas, we know that there is room for improvement. Several letters from other schools have been received recently complimenting the men and women on the paper for the very satisfactory work of the year.
We know of several ways in which the paper could be improved. For instance, we ought to run more cuts, we ought to have more press news of certain important events in athletic, debate, oratory, etc., etc., abroad. But those things take money. A barber shop advertises that the aim of every man in the shop is to bring the service up to a close approximation of 100 per cent. And we are trying
TO REACH A HIGHER PLANE
We want the University Daily Kansan recognized all over the country as not merely one of the four or five best college dailies—as it is now—but as a college paper in a class by itself. If we had a thousand dollars in the bank right now we would—well, what's the use of talking about it? You know we would spend every cent of it to make the Kansan next year the pilot of all college papers in this country.
WE HAVE A LITTLE MONEY
and are going to spend it in that way.
IT IS YOURS, K. U. STUDENTS!
But don't come around to the office to collect. That money is going right back into the paper to make it better. We have a millionaire appetite and a hobo bank account. But next year's paper will be better than ever, just as the one this year is better than that of last.
YOU TAKE PRIDE
in showing the school paper to the folks from home when they come here. You pick the Kansan off the table, hand it to them and say, "See, this is OUR daily paper. Oh yes, it comes on the press five times a week." And that is right. IT IS YOUR PAPER.
AND TO MAKE YOU TAKE MORE PRIDE
in your paper we want you to be ready to respond to the call for subscriptions for next year. We want you to assume a little responsibility. We want to have the Kansan next year enter the room of every student. Remember, we have something to spring pretty soon. We have done the work. All you need to do is to

C. E. Hurst Entertains Big Audience in Fraser With Yellowstone Travelogue
SHOWED SNOW CAPPED REGION
Charles Norton Hunt delivered his travelogue on Yellowstone National Park yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Hall chapel. Moving pictures of the animals of the summer resort in the winter were the feature of the afterpart's entertainment. In these pictures were shown wild manatee sheep, which he took to Mr. Brown, the most difficult animals in the park to photograph.
SHOWED SNOW CAPPED REGION The travelogue took the audience through the stock and wheat raising district to Livingston. A little east of the town, the range of the mapped mountains is secured. From Livingston, the travellers go to Gardiner, the gateway to the park, by open observation cars.
"The journey through the park," said Mr. Hunt, "is made by stage conches drawn by six horses. The first point of interest is the geysers with their calcareous formations. The many beautiful colors here are numerous and faded. There are several troops of federal soldiers in the park for patrol service. Much information, however, may be obtained from them.
WILD FLOWERS PARK
"The varieties of wild flowers" he continued, in the park. Some of the flowers can be found in no other place. Among the most plentiful are the golden red, the dainty gold and the flaming-eyed brush.
PELICANS ON THE LAKE

Next week the trainer intends to start getting his men into shape for the Western Conference meet at Chicago, on June 3. He thinks that the three weeks that remain are just sure to prepare for the athletes to be at their best.
The coaches are doing their best to get the runners into the best of form for the Conference meets and they are of the opinion that Kansas will win more points this year than ever before, regardless of the fact that there appears to be "Too Much Simpson in the competition.

TO FIGHT FOR TITLE
Valley Baseball Championship To Be Decided In Missouri Series
NEED BLEACHERS TO WIN
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY, 17, 1916.
The coming series is one in which the crowd will play an important part. At least the crowd of thirty-five hundred which turned out for the games at Missouri won the first game and almost won the second. Wonderful rooting and support by the rooters almost gave the Tigers two wins in the third game. It was in the end game that Kansas had their little scare by the crowd. The Jayhawkers had a three-run lead in the fifth innning and Missouri was at bat. The band played Dixie and the crowd went wild. Cheering and rooting of the real "honest-to-goodness" variety showed itself and the cheerleaders had a busy half hour. The excitecents included an innings on the Kansans and the pep which the Missourians received from this rally lasted throughout the game.
McCarty Wants Kansas to Profit by Missouri Example
The importance of the coming series of two games with Missouri can not be over emphasized. The Missouri Valley baseball championship rests on these two games and with the even break of the teams in Column 10 it necessitates either team winning both games to clinch the championship.
Kansas has been showing wonderful speed this year but nothing that will exceed the showing of Brewer's conference battle apiece while the Tigers have lost only one game this season. Until their defeat at the hands of the Jayhawks Saturday afternoon the Missourians had a clean record of fourteen straight victories. The number included five conference victories.
TIGER ROOTERS WON
"It is a little of this pop that we want to see on McCook Fold Friday and Saturday afternoons," said Coach Leon McCarty this morning." We not only want to see it but have got to have it. If Missouri can turn out 3,500 people for one game, then the mob more than that. Then, too, when the mob gets there they do not need to think they are at a prayer meeting."
SQUAD IN GOOD SHAPE
McCarty has been putting the men through a final workout this week. The game in Emporia with the Teachers gave the men a hard work-out and put them in better condition for the two hard games this week. No changes in the line-up have been announced and it is probable that Red Craig will do the hurling on bad game unless his knee games bad on him during the second Missouri game, will be on the mound in the second game on McCook. The Valley title depends on winning both games and Kansas is not going to take a chance on losing one of them.
The present plans are to have the band out for the occasion. The cheerleader has been urged to be on hand and the crowd will join in. The game of baseball played on McCook Field in a number of years. Organized yetting at a baseball game has been a neglected thing that was in full swing, Friday and Saturday.
"The team will need the help of every student in these two games," said Coach McCarty as a gentle reminder.
Frank E. MELvin, who will be an instructor in modern European history next year, graduated from the University in the class of 1906. In 1908 he returned to Germany and European history and took his master's degree here in 1909.
For the three years from 1909 to 1912 he was assistant in history at the University of Illinois. The summers of 1911 and 1912 were devoted to archives of London and Paris. In the fall of 1912 he went to the University of Pennsylvania as research fellow and lecturer in the graduate school until his appointment last year as assistant professor of European history in Cornell University.
Instructor in European History Has Good Record
Dr. Melvin is a research man with a wide variety of interests. Much of his early work was done with the La Salle papers, which he is to edit for the Illinois Historical Society. He published an interesting inquiry into the origin of the power of the courts to declare statutes unconstitutional in the American Political Science Review for May 1914. His most important work is a study of Napoleon's System of Licensed Navigation.

URGE CAPS AND GOWNS
Senior Class Asks Faculty to Co-operate in the
The executive committee of the senior class, acting on the action of the class makes the following announcement.
Believing with the senior class that the wearing of academic costume by the members of the faculty will add greatly to the dignity and interest of our Commencement ceremonies, the Executive Committee for Commencement affairs takes this means of urging all officers, deans and faculty members of the University of Kansas to comply with the request of the Commission in the holding of academic costumes this year at the formal Commencement Exercises at 10:00 a.m. Wednesday, June 7, 1916.
The executive committee in obtaining the sentiment of the members of the faculty in this matter, has found fifty-six members of the faculty who are willing and planning to adopt the custom, and it is believed that many more will join the movement now that it is well assured of success.
Prof E. M. Briggs, chairman of the committee, will be in his office in the Trophy Room of the Gymnasium every day the rest of this week except Monday. There are two doors and from 2:30 to 4:30 p. m. to take orders and measurements. The orders to the makers must be in by Monday, May twenty-second.
Professors E. H. S. Bailey, F. B. Dains and William A. Whitaker, of department of Chemistry, will go to Manhattan Saturday to attend the meeting of the Kansas City Section of the American Chemical Society.
CHEMISTS TO MANHATTAN
The afternoon will be devoted to inspection of the chemistry and other departments and will witness the following experiments now in progress: Experiments in animal nutrition, enzymes of flour, chemistry of paint drying as well as numerous activities of a more routine character.
Will Inspect Aggie's Department of Chemistry
The evening program will include three papers, which will be read by instructors of the Agricultural College and are as follows: "The Chemical Conditions Necessary for Making Alfalfa Silage." by C. O. Swanson; "Notes on New and non-off-farm Alfalfa Production" by R. H. Needham; "On the Nutritional Deficiencies of Corn," by J. T. Willard.

In the final round of the dual tennis match with Oklahoma the Kansas squad cinched their victory from the southern school by taking both matches of the singles. This gives Teachner victories over both the Oklahoma players while O'Brien split even on his two matches.
In the first match yesterday afternoon, Captain Teacher had little trouble in defeating Trosper in straight sets 6-1 and 4-2. This was a very difficult game for Robinson the day before. O'Brien the other Kansas entrant in the singles, defeated Robinson 6-4 and 8-6 in straight sets. Trosper defeated O'Brien the day before allowing the their only victories in the dual match.
Week to May 18 to May 24

The doubles proved to be easy for the Kansas team. Teachener and Cowgirl played for Kansas against Minnesota. This is the first time in two years that Kansas has used three men in a dual match but the combination this time was successful and the same players will easily face the Missourians next week.
The match scheduled with Missouri for Friday and Saturday has been postponed until Monday and Tuesday of next week. The matches will be played off the same as the previous day. The latter were postponed on account of the bad weather which persisted during the week end.
Edwin W. Hullinger, elected yesterday president of the Associated Journalism students, has gone to Topeka to accept a position on the reportorial staff of the Daily Capitol. He will return to the University in September to complete his senior year's work.
Hullinger entered K. U. this fall with junior standing from Occidental College, Los Angeles, Calif. He has served in the daily Kansas during the past month.

Joint Meeting Last Night to Hear Final Reports of Old Representatives
SPEAKER QUESTION LEFT
Special Meeting to be Called to Discuss Scribes' Stand
At a joint meeting last night, of the old and new council the new Men's Student Council was installed. There was no formal ceremony. Tommy Thompson the out-going president gave to Junk Herirott, president-elect his chair and most sincere sympathy for the next school year.
The different committees of the old Council made their final reports and offered advice to the new members. The financial committee showed only five dollars profit on the book exchange; the majority wasiously reported $20.00. Of the $264.10 during the year there remained a balance of $106 in the treasury.
The joint councils made provisions for one representative from the Graduate School. No action was taken regarding a member from the department, but the president and a speaker for the newspaper students was left to be decided at a special meeting tomorrow. Besides not providing a newspaper student day speaker, both the old and new council members would not be investigated. The members of the new council however declared that in the future all elections in the new paper school would be under the jurisdiction of the Association of Journalism students would not be investigated. The members of the new council however declared that in the future all elections in the new paper school would be under the jurisdiction of the Association of Journalism students would be handled the same as those in other schools.
It was decided that Paul Greerey, vice-president of the new council, would preside in Junk Herrriott's place at the Convocation Friday. Owing to his position, he will be Herrriott and Humphy Campbell, speakers from the School of Pharmacy will be in Manhattan. Other schools reported the following representative speakers: Ada Dykes from the College of Law; James Vawter from the School of Engineering and Kenneth Uhls from the School of Medicine.
THEY CAN KEEP A SECRET
The Women Only Tell of Saturday's Formal Not About It
If you want a thing well advertised, tell it to a woman as a secret; the man's Spring Formal is the talk of the man and still no secret has escaped.
To appease some of this persistent masculine curiosity, however, a few hints have been given. A dancer, a kind never before seen at K.U., (apologies to Plutoe Friend and Don Davis) from Kansas City, Barnum & Bailey University; a feature to Miss Elliot providing the Gaucho is sufficiently heated and ventilated.
Ancestors of people who resided in Kansas in the Fifteenth Century will attend for the early hours of the event on the 11:12 Santa, Fatja for the day.
Another hint: the tickets are going
fast and dates are getting scarce.
 Saturday, May 20, is the date for one
of the most informal formals of the
year.
LORENZ DECLARES PLAN FOR CREW IMPOSSIBLE
"A boating crew is impossible," said H. A. Lorenz of the department of physical education yesterday. "There is no place near Lawrence where meets can be held or the crew could practice and besides there are no schools close enough to furnish competing teams."
There has recently been some talk in the University of organizing a crew and interesting other colleges in the effort to the first draw-back is the peers likely.
Even though the University had a crew there are no nearby schools with which to compete. The Kaw near Washburn is even less navigable than is here, Emporia is near no river or canyon and the University of Missouri is several miles from the Missouri River and Lincoln is stranded high and dry.

The Stuff of Laughter
As Seen by the Critics
By C. E. S.
The struggle between the harsh, unrelenting bitterness of the northern winter and the soft, sweet joyfulness of spring, was the structure upon which Perey B. Shostac built his dramatic fantasy, "The Stuff of Laughter."
Perhaps, it was not a struggle between Winter and Spring either, but had a deeper meaning—the black of the Middle Ages persecuting the light of the dawning of Today. But I prefer to look only upon the surface and then make it deeply into the very world we have been experiencing for the past few weeks.
The play was well conceived and at times its dramatic artistry was sped by the incidental music to breathless heights—but at times it dropped woofully. The first part, in which the king of Iceland, embodying the spirit of winter, curses his daughter and endeavors to force her to marry the wine-soaked king of Denmark posed as a giant worth another than excellent acting by Ralph Spots, as the King, and Helen Clark as Lavainn, his daughter. The action is tardy, almost to the boresome point, for a fantasy.
The second part starts well and possesses the real merit and beauty of the play. The action moves swiftly; the symbolic dances are happily inspired and very well executed; and the accompanying music is great. In fact, the incidental music which Prof. Arthur Nevin composed and performed in spots. Its delicate and fantastic measures are apt and cleverly beautiful and do much to produce the symbolic illusions of the play.
Probably the weakest part of the play was the staging. The orchestra sat at one side of the stage in view of nearly the entire audience and naturally divided attention with the players. A small lattice surrounding the stage division and would have interfered, but little with either the musical director or the spot light. Also, Mr. Shostac endeavored to be stage manager and actor at the same time, and his efforts to give actors their cues and to give orders to the men in charge of the lights was very diverting as a productive of a wet blinket feeling from the stage by a court fool who quoted an epigram in one breath and shouted, "Lights OFF" with the next
The lighting which had been carefully worked out, was rather a failure on account of the lights which refused to change the appearance of the stage materially regardless of the succession of red, yellow and blue slides with the lighting tower was so placed that the theatre at the university, but it was doubtless due to the physical limitations of the natural stage.
Mr. Shostea's acting of the Court Fool added little to the play. At times his actions were very droll and insulting, but often he spired a smile or kept pace with his lines. However, the part of a fool requires a very great amount and a peculiar bent of dramatic art, and Mr. Shostea fulfilled any reasonable expectation.
The play was something new, and it marks the practical beginning of a very desirable form of entertainment at K. U. the open air play—so it was worth while, even had it possessed less merit than it did.

OPPOSE TIME CHANGE
University Officials Don't Favor Putting Clocks Ahead One Hour
MERCHANTS MAY ADOPT IT
If City Ordinance Can Be Passed Plan Will Probably Carry
FIRST CLASS AT 6:20
The proposed plan of the Lawrence Merchants' Association to set all clocks in Lawrence an hour ahead of the montes of June, July and August and opposition at the University, according to the consensus of opinion gathered this morning by a Kansan reporter. By setting all clocks ahead on hour the merchants plan to get their stores open day after day, with the added advantage of cooler and more pleasant working hours. Authorities at the University, feeling that the matter is purely psychological, suggest that the merchant open their stores an hour earlier and close an hour later than usual.
"Personally, the proposed change in time would have little effect on me," said F. J. Kelley, Dean of the Summer Session, this morning. "If the merchants decide to set all clocks ahead an hour, the University will probably arrange its schedule accordingly. Ordinarily, our summer session classes begin at 7:30 o'clock. If the merchants' plan is adopted, it causes classes to begin at 6:30 o'clock. I fear that hour is rather too early, and that the University schedule would be changed back to the winter hour of 8:30 by the merchants' clocks, or 7:30 by railroad time.
"The logical course, it seems to me, would be for the merchants to agree to open for business and to close their stores an hour earlier than under the present arrangement. That would avoid all misunderstandings regarding time of trains and the time of places outside of Lawrence"
MERCHANTS FAVOR SCHMEME
The proposed change in time was suggested by the regular weekly meeting of the Merchant Association yesterday. Charles Decker, Weaver's dry goods store, and Robert Rankin, of the Griffin Ice Company, were appointed to investigate the matter and to report next Tuesday.
The sentiment of the assembled merchants, ascertained by a rising vote, was unanimously in favor of the change in time.
"Everyone must do it, however," said Mr. Rankin this morning, "or the plan will not be a success. The ruling would have to be made in the morning of the day one required to obey it. Otherwise some merchants along Massachusetts Street would at 7:00 o'clock and close at 6:00 in the evening, while others would not open until 8:00 in the morning and remain open for business. That would obviously be unfair to the merchants who closed early."
LARGE CITIES ADOPT PLAN
Cleveland, Ohio and Detroit, Michigan, have adopted the plan, and the Kansas City Star is urging that it be adopted there. Many European cities are to adopt it. Whether Lawrence and the University will take it up remains to be seen.
An interesting comment on the situation was made this morning by Mrs. Charles Esterly, secretary to Dean Karen Hewitt, a young eastern woman she said, "and not so far from Pittsburgh, the residents conceived the idea of changing their Central time for Eastern day, and thus gaining an hour of daylight. One family lived later in the city, a few days later their only daughter was telling me what an advantage it was.
"Why, we are an hour ahead of you folks," she said.
“Certainly, I replied. ‘But instead of setting your clocks just an hour ahead, why don't you adopt London as your home’ you’ll be a whole day ahead of us.”

UNSELFISH ALUMNI
Somebody has said that a University should be judged not by its buildings, its faculty or its equipment, but by its alumni. There is a great deal of truth in the statement. Its alumni are the results which a University shows to the world.
K. U, has been fortunate in turning out a splendid lot of graduates. They are making good all the way from the Mexican border to the Alaskan goldfields and they keep up an unselfish interest in their Alma Mater which may well serve as an inspiration to the undergraduate. When the Alumni Board meets at the University tomorrow and Friday its sole purpose will be to discover new ways by which it may make K. U, a bigger and a better school. The board is composed of men and women who lead busy lives and to spend two days in work for the University is a real sacrifice on their part. Yet they do it gladly from year to year.
Study the work of the alumni board. It has a lesson for you who are alumni to be.
PROF. BECKER'S ADDRESS
PROF. BECKER'S ADDRESS "Thursday Afternoon Faculty Lectures" an institution inaugurated by Dean Oil Templin on the theory that our University contains as good speakers as can be found anywhere, received an impulse toward its success by Prof Carl Becker, who delivered the first address last Thursday afternoon which was full of clear reasoning wrapped in a veil of rare iron.
It was an unusual talk that Profes sor Becker made, and those who heard him extravagant with their praise. Next week the faculty and students will have another treat. Prof. R. M. Ogden who also bids the University goodbye this year will give the second and last of this series of faculty lectures which will be con-tinued throughout next year.
Let's hear K. U. people at K. U.
THE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
K. U.'s student hospital is rapidly nearing the end of is first year's work. It has been a year fraught with many difficulties. But the difficulties have been surmounted and the hospital has been a success. The head nurse, the physicians and the other members of the hospital staff have done a great service and deserve the thanks of the entire University.
There has been a tendency on the part of an active minority among the student body to criticize the institution because they personally have got nothing from it. They assume the attitude that the two dollars they paid at the first of the year was wasted. The narrowness of such logic is evident. Probably these same students carry from one to five thousand dollars worth of life insurance. Do they figure that unless they die
they are going to be behind the game?
The student who needs to go to the hospital only once during the four years that he is in school will get more than the eight dollars which is his four years' fee. The courteous service, careful attention and general kindly treatment at the hospital are all that can be desired. The Kansan is behind the student hospital. It is an institution to point to with pride.
CANOEING AS A SPORT
DO WE NEED REST?
Now that spring is really here and the air is filled with blooming trees and singing birds and as it has been said that numerous improvements are being brought about on the campus—why not go a little further and place some benches along the walks that students may better enjoy themselves between their classes? This movement would probably be greatly appreciated by seniors whose looks plainly show that they need frequent relaxation from the strain of life. And why should Kansas be so far behind other universities? Michigan has benches between all of its buildings, and they are a source of joy to all.

To hide in clouds, lest he pale, too,
At what a warring world can do.
Lightning and thunder here in France. Are born of man and not by chance. They're the bite and bark of the sav- hunts
And the answering roar of the Allies guns,
Somewhere in France the air is greedy. With the poison death of the gas ma
That makes the elements conspire With the fiend who rules a dark em

Raindrops, falling, are tears in France.
Tears at a cost of a yard's advance. Softening roads to the iron thud; loaching the lines in a mourning of mud.
But hearts are true, somewhere in France.

Courage that's waiting to take any chance

CLASS SPIRIT PASSING?
diter Daily Korean:
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published.
CAMPUS OPINION
One would begin to wonder whether class spirit in the way of class gatherings is not on the wane at the University of Kansas because of the scarcity of class affairs this year. There has been no decrease during the year of general University functions. On the contrary there has been aDEDuced fidelity that they have unfortunately tended to work a hardship upon those students who attempted to let no such affairs pass without attending.
It has been quite the vogue the past two years to give benefits to raise money to go toward a fund for some university organizations. University organizations have turned to almost any semblance of entertainment spiced with a bit of the customary "stand-bys." In a sense it has been difficult to get students' pies supporters" to fit the college campus. During the freshman year of the present senior class there were many class smokers held to further good fellowship among the class members, but gradually these smokers fell into disbelief by the sewing politicians. The sophomores made an attempt this year to revive the old class smokers.
The senior class has had a woeful lack this year of class gatherings, or class business meetings. The only sign that the class has made thus far is that a meeting was held; it was the reception given with the aid of the Alumni Association to the returned alumni at the time of the Nebraska-Kansas football game.
Editor Daily Kansan;
The tobacco habit as a whole, whether it be of the cigar, pipe or cigarette variety is a dirty, disgusting habit. "Smoker," in a recent communication compared the use of tobacco by men to that of powder by women. I believe, myself, that the use of any cosmetic by women is foolish, but it isn't really harmful as far limiting a woman's health is concerned.
We know that the use of tobacco does ruin a man's health for statistics show how nicotine has dwarfed and stunted growing boys and that the tobacco is breaking down the human body made too broad a statement as to the genuineness of the sentiments expressed by other co-eds. I have been widely associated with the women here in the University for years. I have met them and grown to know them, W. S. G., Y. W. C. A., I have met and grown to know others through my membership in the W. S. G., A. and I can truthfully say that the most of the woman student body is clean-hearted and wholesome. I wrote the article for this column some time ago signaled that I had a great word that I wrote without mawkish sentimentality. I heartily feel that a strong endeavor should be made to discourage the use of tobacco among University men and I would like to see K. U, known all over the country as a University with backbone enough to establish principles and live up to them.
The arguments pro and con concerning smoking have interested me very much. Some very good sentiments have been expressed by the coeds, and I think that they prove that girls can think and debate. In a recent communication by "An Amateur Woman" I adverbially much the stand she took on some points, but I don't like to see any woman sanction the tobacco habit by defending the "poor down-trodden cigarette."

I want to take off my coat. I'm hot.
My old felt hat is dirty and shapeless.
My cool, clean imitation panama is

smothering from this recent doings

down my collars is the thought of
this conventionalism that makes a
man a mark of ridicule or dubs him
from the real world, brings parts from the
island to the useful.
This is true not only in the present instance but many others as well. When I say that I would rather take my socks from the to a picture show I believe I am expressing sentiments of many others. But no, you must take her to a nickle and buy a coke because that is what every one else does. Some think it is adorable; some think it shirts; others are afraid to say "Hello" to the girl who sat in the next seat through a semester of agony in Spanish because they had no introduction. No one needs to get fresh clothes to all use all use some common sense.

Prof. E. M. Hopkins, chancellor of the national organization made a statement in regard to the affiliation of Hopkins with the national writing fraternity of loose organization. "On account of the fact that the American College Quill refuses to throw over its name for the organization, these organizations have thus far been unsuccessful."
According to the Ohio State Lantern, the Ohio State University is suffering from a plague of toads. The amphibians are said to be everywhere over the campus, on the sidewalks and in the grass, so that it is difficult to keep from stepping on them. It is not reported that the toads hang from trees on silk threads, or crawl down peoples' necks however.
All members desiring a photograph of last year's club may obtain them from Prof. E. M. Hopkins for seventy-five cents.

Superior to That of Average Person Says Aggie Professor
Frank Strong.
Newspaper English is superior to that used by the average person. The newspaper is an unconscious but potent teacher of English, asserts Robyn Ritter that students should understand the English language in the Kansas State Agricultural College.
"Newpaper English," says Professor Conover, "is a phrase repeated with parrot like inflection by persons who have accepted it as an epithet applicable to any mistake in English that occurs in a newspaper. This phenomenon is its meaning common mistakes in the use of language. It was meant originally to describe a certain peculiarity in the use of language not restricted to newspapers, but reaching its worst and most absurd development in them. After this absurd, high scissors die suddenly and most of good taste was recognized and it has now disappeared except from the extreme provincial papers.
"Within recent years the use of schools of journalism and courses in journalism has come as the result of the feeling among older newspaper men for the profession of journalism should be put upon a professional basis.
"It may be said that there has been steady improvement in newspaper English. This is shown in clear, concise, and honest use of words; in simpler and more direct sentences, and in conscious attention to the higher or more difficult elements of style."
WOMEN'S ERA REACHES U
Will be on Student Day Program
Students of political science expect that woman will occupy her full sphere in the political field with the coming of equal suffrage. Without the aid of women's suffrage, the universities are setting the pace for the country by electing women to more responsible positions.
Two women are now presidents of classes in the University of Wisconsin.
A woman is to represent the College in the student day exercises here for the first time this year. For the first time in its history, the Daily Kansan was edited this semester by a woman.
After the rains last Sunday the air was so clear that a perfect view of the Kaw and Wakurasai valleys could be obtained from the Hill. There was none of the ordinaries, and objects stood out on the landscape with remarkable distinctness. At one point southeast of the campus, where the crest of the hill is said to be between fourteen buildings, two smaller objects could be distinguished so clearly that they did not appear to be more than two or three miles away.
About dusk every evening an interesting performance takes place around the big brick air flue at the building where they live. There are great many swallows who have evidently appropriated the chimney for their sleeping headquarters, dip and dive in and out of it in a sportive manner in a considerable time before they retire.

CURSES!! CIRCUS CANT CAPTURE COY CO-EDS.

"No circus life for me," decided the fair participants in the May Fete Forty women with forty suit-cases attempted to dress, undress, redress and address in a 12 by 12 tent. The day was dark and warm. There was but one mirror. There was a window that fouly beauty spots to stick above forty? dimples and forty pairs of eyes to pencil. It wasn't "You're next," but "I'm next."

The overpowering odors overcame the Three Graces and the East Wind was hailed to revive her.

THEY MOLD KANSAS CLAY
Fine Arts Students Work In
Haworth Hall
The class is just finishing a handsome "Alma Mater" lining cup for the K. U. Alumni club at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There are a number of loyal K. U. people at Pittsburg who have formed an Alma Mater club. They are prosperous enough to own a house and evidently they have retained considerable sentiment for K. U. at least they receive an order to travel to a department for a cup made of clay from Mount Orbend. All of the clay used in this department is of Kansas origin, most of it coming from near Hoisington.
This is where the advanced class in applied design works. Their particular feat is making cunning little ornaments, such as bowls, mugs, tea cups, trumpets and those of other truly artistic triumphs and all are extremely attractive.

Miss Schmidt graduates this spring and hopes to do interior decorating after leaving school. Miss Corey finishes this year and intends to teach home economics.
Because of the Pharmaceutical Association meetings in Kansas City this week the department of pharmacy is taking a vacation. Most of the faculty and a large number of the students in the department who are attending the meetings will not return until Thursday.

Sanitation, Convenience and Cost Will be Considered
As the result of recent and thorough canvass of the student rooming houses of Lawrence, lists of rooms are being prepared under the auspices of the University Health Service. The team will be available for consultation to those desiring rooms, upon application to the parties named below.
ROOMS ARE TO BE LISTED
The houses will be classified so far as possible according to conveniences, sanitation and service, so as to enable students the more readily to learn and to be acquainted to their ability to pay and their comfort are concerned.

A K, U. Graduate Is Trying To Solve Problem
DYE CHEMISTS NEEDED
"The dye industry in this country s growing and the demand for dye chemists is steadily increasing," said department of chemistry, this morning.
New Board for Potter's
"The scarcity of dyes at present is due to the fact that all imports are out off and that brokers are holding them for higher prices. Fifty to seventy per cent of our dyes are imported. The annual output of dyes in the field is about 15,000 tons; mostly the staple colors. blue, red, etc.
"A K. U., graduate, Otto Mallus, 13, is at the Mellin Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburg, Pa, where he expects to work with problems connected with coal tar distillation and the manufacture of dyes."
A new springboard for Potter Lake has been ordered by the department of physical education and will be put in place as soon as it arrives. The new board has been needed for some time as the one that is in place is cracked diagonally along its length and is on side. The new board will be in place before the water is warm enough for swimming to be popular with the majority.

STUDENTS MAKE POTTERY
Geologists Test Samples of Kansas Clay
New samples of clays from various parts of the state have been received at the clay working laboratory in Haworth Hall, and are being analyzed and tested to discover their possible uses. There are also several students working upon clays that have been tested and found to be suitable for pottery.
The clay that is being used by these students is mostly from samples from the western and southwestern parts of the state. Samples that have been made to be good for pottery are being worked up into various kinds of earthware.
Because he "can't loose touch with the University," William Wiedemann, the proprietor of "Wiedie's" for forty-seven years, has sent us in a subscript to him, "and I am Wiedemann who has for years been so intimately connected with the students and their "dates" as they strolled into his confectionery, that row, since he has retired from business, he does not want to drop out of student life. He is very interested in that subject, that he may know what K. U. students, past and present are doing.
A small lump of clay from a mining district in Arkansas was left at Haworth Hall last week by a miner who had been working in that state. The samples that he carried were examined by one of the professors of mining engineering, and one of the lumps of clay greatly interested him, but none will be analyzed and burned in the pottery kiln of the clay laboratory. The results of the tests on other samples received lately are not ready to be published, according to Paul Tector, analyst in charge of the laboratory.
Students in the class of entomology took an excursion to the Wakurasra river Thursday afternoon in search of specimens upon which to practice their skills, and about 2100 from Snow Hall and did not return until late in the evening.
Even the life of a student of entomology has its drawbacks. While searching for bugs and other animal forms along the banks of the Wakaraura river Thursday some one stole seeds from the banks of dents so that when lunch came they were forced to the simple menu of wienies and bananas.

DO YOU KNOW K. U.?
Then You Can Answer These Fundamental Questions About the University
What constitutes a great University is one that will hold you for a while.
If you can answer it to the satisfaction of the crowds and the educators, then you will have done something that people have been trying to do. They've had a lot of many discussions and drawn a line for the present generation to toe.
But there is one thing certain. Those universities that have been more generally acknowledged great have had more traditions and widely known history than we have at the University of Kansas. There are names and places held dear by the whole student body in other institutions which mean more than a mere name. Our lack of tradition is not due to a lack of sentiment, it is because of a wanton ignorance of the early history of the University and some of the stories connected with its founding.
If you think that you are up on University history look over these questions which are all fundamental and see how many of them you can answer with any degree of accuracy. If you think that you are one of those students who are building up an "esprit de corps" here at the University.
What, when and by whom were the first steps taken towards establishing an institution of higher learning in the State of Kansas?
When was the present site of the University chosen?
What was the first University building, buildings that will remain main campus? The second? The second?
When was the first act passed by the Legislature organizing the University, and what was its first government?
In what month and year did University classes convene for the first time?
Who was the first chancellor of the University?
What was the first University building, and how was it built?
How many acres of ground on the University campus at Lawrence? At Rosewood.
How many buildings, both for instruction and service, are on the campus at Lawrence? How many were donations from individuals?
When was the present government of the University adopted? What is
How many chancellors has the University had since its founding? Nane
How many schools are connected with university and what degrees granted
How many students have received degrees from the University of Kannan
Name five prominent men, gradates of the University of Kansas.
When as the first wing of the Administration building built, and what is the proposed cost of the entire building?
There are a hundred other questions that would be almost as fair, but these are fundamental, and there is not a catch question in the bunch. The Kansan will print the answers to these questions in the near future.
One of the featuring features of the May Fete Saturday afternoon was the dancing of a little four-year old chap, who inspired by the lyrical music and the Greek dancers escaped from his mother and began to throw his arms in the air and skip joyfully about.
Lloyd Scott and Verne Griffith, stud ents at Baker University visited friends on the Hill and attended the track meet at Haskell Monday.
The old-fashioned way of pulling teeth was practiced by the proprietor of the K. u. shoe shop last week when he tied a string to the offending tooth and the other end to a nail over the door. After the repeated efforts, during which the string slipped off each toe, the shoe-maker who attempted to do the job. The student was a poor dentist, and the牙 was firm, as a result of which the shee-maker has a tale of woe to tell all of the patrons of his shop.
Classses which tried to meet out-of-doors under the shade trees during the past week found it anything but pleasant. Slick, slimy worms, little fuzzy caterpillers, and a variety of multi-colored creeping bugs took a keen delight in exploding into their skins to such an extent that most of the recitations were interspersed with little feminine shrieks and much jumping around.

THEY ARE IN A BIG HURRY
That's Why Some Profs Ride
Their Bikes
Who are the men in the faculty who ride bicycles? There are three of them, Professors U. G. Mitchell, I. E. Todd and M. E. Rice. Why do they ride them? Simply because they can cover the ground faster than by walking. When they were younger perhaps they tried to do tricks on them, and run races, but those days are over.
"My first bicycle was a hundred and thirty-five dollar Columbia which I bought way back in '92," said Prof. U. G. Mitchell. "The tires were made of solid rubber and the frame of handled steel. There was prac- tice taken out our garage." Later I had these tires replaced by pneumatics when they came in.
"I still ride a bicycle when I am in a hurry to go any place. Generally I take it up the Hill with me when I have reasons to hurry home after there. There is no transferring or waiting for cars when I have my bike."
Professor Todd has been riding a bicycle for twenty-two years. He says that he finds it about as easy as walking and much faster. The rims of his first bicycle were made of iron instead of wood as they are now.
A severe case of measles is keeping James Akright, of Sterling, a freshman in the College from attending his classes.

When a large bottle of benzoyl chloride was spilled in the basement storeroom in the chemistry building a few days ago, the room had to be closed for three days before anyone could enter. Some thoughtless student attempted to take the bottle from the shelf by means of the cork, and probably was surprised to see the bottle seperate itself from the cork. Benzoyl-chloride is a very odoriferous compound.

Absolutely Uucensored Opinion to be Given by Speakers Tomorrow
SCRIBES GET A SPEAKER
Journalist Students Will be Allowed a Representative
Faculty members who have not been on their best behavior for the past few weeks are shaking in their boots today, for tomorrow is the one day when the various schools will send speakers to a special convocation to voice the sentiments of the tree from fear of faculty censorship.
Ten-thirty classes meet at 11:30 tomorrow; 11:30 classes meet at 12 o'clock because of Students' Day.
Students Day has become one of the few traditions of the University of Kansas, and the plans are practically centered on Chapel tomorrow morning at 10:30 o'clock. The engineers, laws, college, pharmacies and medics will gather in crowds and the chapel will ring with the ceremony and the yells of the individual schools.
As has been the custom in the past the Sachems, the senior honorary society, will announce their members for the coming year.
The Chancellor's representative will have the honor of announcing the names this year, and will be the only faculty member who will have any place on the program. There will also be the announcement of another organization, the named and membership will not be disclosed until that time.
SCRIBES REPRESENTED
The journalism department will be represented on the program for the first time. A petition presented to the Student Council at their regular meeting last Tuesday, was granted, and a commitment will be chosen some time today.
2.4.1
A WOMAN SPEAKER
Coach Beau Olcott will speak to the students during the early part of the program. His talk will be along Athletic lines, urging the students to do what they can to bring the better athletes to Kansas, and making a plea for their support of the various teams.
JUNK WILL BE THERE
Student Day this year will be marked by an innovation in the way of speakers. A woman, Miss Ada Dykes, has been chosen to do the speaking for the college. This is the first time that a woman has ever been on the program of Student Day speakers, and the Laws and the Engineers are still doubting if it can be done. Some of them have gone so far as to state that Miss Dykes should not be allowed to speak, and thus break a custom of many years. Miss Dykes, a Kamaan pointer this morning said that she was going to speak nevertheless, and that she was going to try to voice the sentiments of both the men and the women in the college.
Despite the fact that the track team will go to Manhattan tomorrow at noon, both junk Herriott, president of the Student Council, and Humpty Dumpty, a student who works in pharmacy, will be on the program. Herriott will open the convocation and introduce the first few speakers and Campbell will be given an early place on the program so that both of these students can join him with the rest of the track team.
The program for tomorrow as arrived by President Herriott is as follows:

The play is a takeoff on canned goods and breakfast foods. Chanticleer, king of Illville, is overthrown by Fraudus, dressed to represent a can of boneless chicken. Omllet falls love with Outmeat, who not as artful as the Palms. Oats, Oatcakes,alia becomes insane and bursts. Songs appropriate to the theme are song from "The Palms" to "Little Brown Jug." Only women will be admitted to the play. It is one of the few opportunities for the women to see their instructors give an entertainment of their own.
The farce was given with great success in Kansas City last winter. Mrs. Ona Winant Borland, of Kansas City, is the author and has consented to use this material in the unique costumes used in the presentation of the play in Kansas City.
The purpose of giving the play is to raise money for a scholarship. For ten years the Association has given a scholarship, raising the money by charging dues and giving alumnae dinners. With this new venture the committee hopes to offer more than one scholarship.

PROFS PLEASE SENIORS
Members of the faculty will wear academic costumes at the formal commencement exercises on Wednesday June 7, thus complying with the request of the seniors who have urged this movement. Seventy-five members of the faculty have already expressed their willingness and desire to wear academic costumes and will probably sign up later. Each professor will wear the hood which shows the colors of his University and the degree which he obtained.
It was at the request of the seniors the petition was started. They feel the importance of the faculty by the faculty will add more dignity to the occasion and will lift the faculty to the place of esteem which is being exercised. The institution exercises more impressive.
Faculty Agrees to Wear Caps and Gowns Commencement
Prof. E. M. Briggs, chairman of the committee, urges those faculty members who have not given their orders, to attend the opening session of Room of the Gymnasium as soon as possible. He will be there from 10:30 to 12:30 a. m. and 2:30 to 4:30 p. m. In addition, he will be waiting late, the orders must go in the first part of next week without fail.
All the large universities observe this custom, and the students are all all the same.

START FINALS ON MONDAY
Pan-hellenic Schedule Not Yet Completed
The elements have been against the P. H. League and due to the incessant rain of the past few weeks game after game has had to be postponed because the team had badly distorted from its original form and several of the teams have been unable to play a game. This fact makes is difficult to predict the win-loss-cup which is offered each year by Allie Carrol to the champions.
The Forecast: Showers tonight and probably Friday, gradually rising temperature.
The baseball season for the teams of the Pan-hellenic league is rapidly drawing to a close. The committee on schedule has arranged the following games to wind up the year's schedule and to decide which fraternity has the peer of the baseball teams:
Sigma Delta Chi, tonight, Kanza house, 7:45.
Week of May 15 to 19

Markley Says Track Team I In Excellent Condition for Meet
RODKEY IS MUCH BETTER
freweeke Not in Condition for Friday's Contest
With most of the men in excellent condition and the chances good for breaking a couple more University records, the track team will leave for Manhattan tomorrow morning, to withhold its usual dual meet with the Kansas Anglers.
Trainer Markley said this morning that he is well pleased with the showing the men have been making this week, and that he feels sure that most of them will improve their own records in the contest on Friday.
Rodkey is back in good condition, and has a good chance to lower his own half-mile record. His foot has improved rapidly of late and he says that he does not believe it will bother him any more this season.
TWO MILE THE FEATURE
The feature event of the games, however, will undoubtedly be the two-mile race. In the dual indoor meet, last winter Grady defeated the Aggle runner case after Statler had set so strong a pace in the first part of the race and thus caused Teeters to tire himself for the final sprint. The Aggle runner caught this time, however, for learned a valuable lesson in the former race.
PATTINSON GOOD FOR TWELVE FEET
Pattinson cleared the bar at twelve feet Wednesday afternoon and stands with good chances of doing even better than that. The bell is doped to carry off the other three points for Kansas in this event.
Treweake is rounding in condition again under the careful work of trainer Markley and his injured leg (1) before Miller could arrive. Mr. Markley said this morning, however; that the jumper was in no condition to enter the Aggie contest. This will allow Frizzle 3 an easy victory in the match. Miller should be able to take second.
Coach Hamilton feels optimistic about the coming event, but he says he is certain that the victory will not be an easy one, and that it is up to every man to enter into his event with the same determination that he will be expected to show in the Missouri Valley Meet at Columbia on May 27.
ALUMNI BOARD ARRIVES
Old Grads are Here to Investigate Conditions on Alma Mater
Members of the Board of Alumni Visitors began to arrive early today. Mr. James V. Humphrey, 85, of Junction City, was the first to head the list of those present. Mr. W. Y. Morgan, '85, from Hutchinson, and Mrs. C. W. Smith, '76, from Topeka were the next to greet their Alma Mater.
"We haven't gotten down to business yet," said Mr. Humphrey, when asked what plans they were going to discuss for the following year: "We're just having a good chat among ourselves this morning," he added.
The majority of the board members are expected to arrive before evening. Each member is required at least five days of durability during the year, and those who come only at the time of the board meeting will be here for the full weekend for carrying on the summit business for ensuing year will be discussed in fall.
Leland E. Fisk, '16 e. and Roy A. Reynolds, '16 C. returned Tuesday from the University of Oklahoma, where they installed a chapter of Sigma Gamma Epsilon, the national mining and geology fraternity. The chapter was installed with seventeen charter members.
CHAPTER IN MINING FRAT
INSTALLED AT OKLAHOMA
The Sigma Gamma Epsilon fraternity was founded at the University last winter and it is the first national fraternity to be founded here.
Mr. Fiske reports that the University of Oklahoma is growing fast. He was there in 1911 and at that time there were only about 400 students enrolled while now they have over 800. Now the geology is the strongest in the University department of mining and engineering, although small, is growing.
Rotary Club Meets
The Botany Club held its farewell picnic last night in Brown's Grove southwest of Lawrence. Forty-two members left the campus about 6 o'clock with the provisions for a big feast. A fire was built and the students were prepared. After he feed the evening was sped up in singing and story telling. Also letters from old members away from Lawrence were read.
BAND LEAVES TOMORROW
FOR CONCERT AT LINWOOD
The University band, under the direction of J. C. McCanles will leave Friday evening on the 6 o'clock Union Pacific for Linwood, where they will give an open air concert that evening. The concert will be one of the features of the last day program for the Linwood schools and will be guests at the big picnic dinner to be given just before the concert.
Through the courtesy of the people of Linwood all the expenses of the trip will be paid. They will bring the boys back in eight autos after the concert. Among the number on the program to be given are Faust, Fest Overture and a piccolo solo by Hubert Nutt.
The Stuff of Laughter As Seen by the Critics
Bv W. W.
Caryle says, "But how much chaff there is in him; not but is there any wheat? It has always seemed peculiarly ironical to me that the notion some people have of being judiciously critical, involves a sort of superior intelligence very well, but I could have shown you a thing or two." I am so unfortunately constituted as to be lacking in the critical faculty, and hence entirely the wrong person to write at. What does it mean what belated opinion of the recent phantasy, "The Stuff of Laughter." Because, as I say, I can enjoy anything where I can see the maker in earnest self-expression; and many speeches, addresses, concerts, which have been written, have patronizing pooled, have nevertheless left my less delicate mind supplied with food for thought
I am glad that there seems unanimous appreciation of the beauty and charm of Professor Nevin's music, which has had a great deal to do with his work. The music is the dancing, too, and the continuing aid given full and most deserved credit for their part in the final verdict of "Well done."
But what of it,—if the staging of the Saturday night's performance was not perfect and one person must be both actor and stage-manager? I am not sure how to articulate such as the existed; but unfortunately, I was not troubled by them. I was appreciating the really fine acting of Miss Clark and Mr. Spotts, and sheer poetry of the lines, notably those spoken by the Fool. I have seen or read at least a thousand plays in or from ten or a dozen languages; plays of varied genres, but they are reaction and re-action of human jealousies, passions, littlenesses, and instinctive nobilities, my main interest in the finer literature of Life. The Elizabethan starkness and the profound but fragile symbolism of Mr. Shostac's poetry, married though it was in phrases by evident rhymes and metaphors, with emotional and voiceless, grateful for an evening of music, poetry, poignancy and pathos. I have not regretted that I lack the critical faculty.
ARCHERY CONTEST FRIDAY
Gustafson Offers Silver Cup for Winner
The first archery contest ever held at the University of Kansas will take place Friday afternoon at 4:30 in front of Fowler Shops, just east of Uptown. Gustafson's Jewelry Store will be awarded the winner. Bad weather has hindered the work in archery as well as all the outdoor gymnasium work and not as many have entered as usual, and they been able to practice regularly.
"We hope to make this contest an annual institution at K. U," saidella Hawkins, who has charre of training the women for the contest, and the enthusiasm shown by the women this spring encourages us to believe that she will be a successful winner.
Some of the women who have entered for the contest tomorrow are: Ethel Martin, Ellen Edmondson, Ethel Meyers, Minnie Mooney, Zula Chase, Nellie Huston and Ruth Fox. Ella Hawkins is in charge of the contest.

WILL TUTOR ATHLETES
Student Society Organized to Help Varsity Men With Studies
CHOSEN BY THE COACHES
Fourteen Selected to Assist Members of Teams
"Athletic Helpers of K. U." is the name of a new society of K. U. men, the organization of which was announced this morning by Walter Woost and Ames Rogers, members of a student organization depicted from the Student council.
Membership of the society will be on an honorary basis. The names of the fourteen original members who have been chosen by members of the K. U. coaching staff will be announced at the general convoction Friday. The pin of the "A. H. O. K. U." is a rounded affair.
INELIGIBILITY AFFECTS MANY K. U. athletic teams have been crippled because of promising men being unable to compete because of being behind in their studies. This has been especially nocpecible this year. Several of the best of the freshman football squad as well as one or two letter men will be ineligible next fall because they cannot pass in the required twenty-eight hours of work during the present school year.
The purpose of the "Athletic Helpers of K. U." is outlined in detail in the constitution as an attempt to benefit the athletics of the University at K. U., and participants cr prospective participants in intercollegiate athletics in such ways as to assure that their scholastic standing in the University shall be of such character as the result of the recognition down by the eligibility regulations.
WISH TO INSPIRE SCHOLARSHIP
"In order to accomplish this purpose satisfactorily," the constitution continues, "every possible effort must be made to offer honorable scholastic assistance to those entitled to receive it and whose scholastic standing necessitates it. This shall be done by ad- ministration of the provisions by any or all means of inspiring the delinquent to a true sense of scholarship.
"More specifically, the purpose of this society is to aid all members of inter-collegiate teams during their period of competition; to aid members and prospective members of inter-collegiate teams during these periods when they are not competing; to undertake, by a strict and careful surpassance of the prospective athletes of the freshmans for intercollegiate competition so soon as their one-year residence requirement be compiled with."
CHANCE FOR SERVICE TO K. U.
It is the intention of those in charge of the organization plans to lay particular stress on the careful it upon themselves, who are to take it upon themselves to define the standard of scholarship among the letters. The membership is to be between twenty-one and twenty-four, with representation from the different schools of the University.
The aim is to have membership considered one of the real school honors, offering opportunity to be of service to the school.
STUDENTS TO CLEVELAND
Two Representatives of Polity Club Go In June
H. Merle Smith of Bucklin and George Strong of Blue Rapids, students of the University of Kansas, will take a trip to Cleveland, Ohio, the last two weeks of June as representatives of the K. U. branch of the International Polity Club to the national meeting of the organization.
Peace talk and war diplomacy will be discussed at this meeting. Probably the most important question that will come up will be a discussion of how we can address this, which has caused heated relations between Germany and the United States.
Both Smith and Strong will have their expenses paid. The International Polity Club is an organization in the leading universities of the country with the purpose of studying inernational politics.
SUNDAY SPECIAL
At 9:30 o'clock this morning 40 people had signed up for the Billy Sunday trip to Kansas City.
At 1:30 this number had increased to 53. It is necessary for the number to be raised to all to secure the special train.
Ernest Gopper, Middle Law,
at 1235 Rhode Island street has
charge of the arrangements.

HACK CRITICS AND CREATIVE ART
"Time is ever sure with its revenges. While he lived, and for several decades thereafter, Shelley was popularly regarded as little better than a madman, a maker of verse that was poor poetry and that inculcated bad morals. Today Shelley is more quoted than any other poet—not even excepting Shakespeare," so says Robert Bridges in his anthology, "The Spirit of Man," recently published by Longmans Greene and Co.
The lot of the young poet has ever been a hard one. Keats died at twenty-four, after having given the world some of the most exquisite poetry that is in our heritage, the victim of a broken heart. His work was savagely attached by the parasite Jeffries, one of the heroes of "English Bards and Scotch Reviewers." He was reiled as an unmoral, indecent, half-baked youth—a callow beginner. To his sensitive nature these rebukes were as blows and he was a ready victim for the white plague.
These are but two examples of young poets whose lives have been ruined by hack reviewers—space writers whose living is made by attacking the works of men who are doing creative work. These parasite critics, whose every meal comes from deliberate attack, have done more to discourage the producing real art than any other element effecting literature.
Prof. Percy B. Shostac, whose fantasy "The Stuff of Laughter" has been harshly criticized in the Kansan, may well find condience in the experience of these other poets. The dramatic critic of the Kansas City Star has fortunately seen good stuff in the play and Mr. Shostac is to be complimented on his work. Camps opinion may or may not appreciate the poetry but fortunately there are those outside the student body who can see in it the dawn of a poet's career.
The Kansan announces that women can keep a secret because they have not told what the women's formal, which will be held next Saturday, is to be like. It isn't Saturday yet.
A MOLE HILL MOUNTAIN
A MOLE HILL MOUNTAIN The editor of the Kansan has hoped to keep out of the tobacco controversy because he does not believe that it is an issue in University life. However it seems that such a course is impossible.
In its news stories the Kansan has made a mistake—a mistake in judging values. The Anti-Cigarette League is not worth more than one paragraph as a news feature. The views of the opponents of the league are equally of little news value. A review of the columns of the paper during the past week would lead the average reader, unacquainted with conditions in the University, to believe that Mount Oread is hidden under a pair of smoke and that the
members of the A. C. League like brave knights, have their electric fans out and are on the job to purify the murky atmosphere.
As a matter of fact probably not more than twenty-five per cent of the men in the University smoke tobacco in any form. Few of them are interested in the league one way or the other. It is certain that the vast majority of students are in favor of a strict enforcement of the law. They sympathize with Professor McKeever and his work and they want the University to be understood and appreciated over the state.
Every newspaper is confronted with the problem of judging the value of news. Newspapers often make mistakes. They have the limitations of the men who conduct them
The editor of the Kansan is thoroughly in sympathy with the ideals of the A. C. League but not with the method which its members have adopted to make their ideals felt. In that it stands for the enforcement of the law the league is to be commended. In that it stands for the ostracism of smokers it is not to be commended. Mountains can easily be made of mole hills but such a mountain never survives.
To the students of the University the Kansan wishes to stand for strict enforcement of the laws of the state, for honesty and fair play. It will make mistakes but it is always anxious to receive honest criticism.
It is indeed unfortunate that "The Stuff of Laughter" should have encountered so bad a run of weather. The giving of the play upon the golf links has made possible the starting of another University tradition—a tradition which we should not let slip away from us.
A PENNANT IN THE BALANCE Kansas has won the Valley baseball championship for so many years that the students in the University have come to take it for granted. But, like the slothful English, it would seem that this year we are due for a surprise. The season is nearly over and the pennant isn't sewed up in a Kansas sack by a long way. Something must be done
According to Coach McCarty that something is—ROOT. Baseball has never drawn large crowds at K. U. The men would rather take the women to a show than to a baseball game. Yet in summer these same men will go to a game every Friday afternoon and consider themselves fans of the first water. They aren't. A baseball fan is a man or woman who would rather go to a baseball game than a worst-enemy's funeral. Your real dyed-in-the-wool fan is out for every team. He is loyal to his team.
Let's make our new cheerleader come out and display his wares. He needs the practice and the team needs the support. Let's get these motley frosh in shape to root for football next year. Missouri hasn't anything on us. If she can get one thousand out for a K. U.-M. U. baseball game we can get two thousand out. If her rooters can come nearly beating Kansas ours can beat Missouri.
Let the women go to the game alone. Bring your room mate and all your gang and come out to those games Friday and Saturday. Kansas is going to win that pennant.
Anyhow, this mothers' day proposition affords prospective daughters and sons-in-law a chance to give the old folks the once over.

moon and a circle star
On the silvery slopes of the sky!
Art thou weeping, thou sightless
A moon and a single star
eye,
Art thou blind with some dawn afar?
Whither, sad moth to thy flame?
O starry tear, is it thine
Or my own, or a sorrow divine
That shecheeks of the night pro-
claim?
Drops down on the shoulder west.
The moon with her grief forlorn
west,
As a sleeper distraught from the
rest
Turns back to her pillows at morn.

NOTICE—CHEERLEADER
CAMPUS OPINION
NOTICE - LEADERSHIP To the Editor of the Daily Kansan: With the deciding series of the 1916 Missouri Valley Conference race here Friday and Saturday with Missouri, there has not even been a whisper of a rally or even talk of any organized cheering to help Coach McCarty's team in the battles with the Tigers.
What's the matter? Can Kansas only show pep in the fall over football? And very little then. If K. U. students could have been at Columbia last week and seen the crowd of three and four thousand that Missouri turned out for the Kansas baseball series, maybe said students could realize that a certain University at Lawrence is away behind its other rivals when it comes to real support of its athletic teams.
Why is it that the different chemical and medical fees as published in the catalogue are below what they really are? Is it to lead prospective students to think that this University is less expensive to attend than others, and then to raise their laboratory fees, etc. after they have enrolled? I know of seven universities have been required to pay thirty-five dollars to bear the expenses of the course instead of twenty-five as had been listed in the catalogue sent them by the University. The laboratory fees for medies are higher than the student is lea to believe. Yet when he mentions it to his instructor he is simply the wrong answer. Is there no one to whom the student can appear to right this wrong? Why isn't the truth published in regard to these fees? No changes are made in the catalogue from year to year.
Friday will be student day so there will be plenty of opportunity to at least have a small rally and pep meeting. If Gaitkisn't can't handle it let's have Gedney, cheerleader-elect out. And for heaven sake have the entire squad of cheerleaders out both Friday and Saturday afternoons. If Kansas is to have the 1916 championship it will require a little effort.

The interest of the play was well sustained, which was probably due entirely to the ability of the cast. Madine Kalkie, a woman born in Jersey, was very fine; Jerome Lawlor, as her husband was only passing good; but Eugene Ormonede as the villain was a suitable support for Madine Kalkie. The two children were especially good, and daughter were especially good, and added greatly to the performance.
"Scandal" shown at the Varsity Theater, provided good opportunities for Madame Bertha Kalick, the superb Russian actress, to get in a great deal of emotional work in which she is supreme; but the play itself was much better and hudder" that it was too weighty for the real enjoyment of a sensitive audience. A happy home broken up maliciously by the villan who desires the young wife himself, the appearance of the villain's wife and son, the vengeance of the young wife wrecked on the scene and a subsequently reunited home are all woven together in a very intricate manner.

Billy Koester, Chairman, Says Hall Could Not Be Secured
The sophomore corn cob smoker announced for tonight has been postponed indefinitely according to Billy Koester, chairman of the smoker committee. It is now so near the end of the year, Koester thinks the affair might be given up before the event, given the Eagles' Hall could not be secured for this evening.
The plan was to have each man bring his own tobacco but the committee was to furnish every one with a corn cob. The sophomores had planned to invite twenty-five seniors and twenty-five faculty members.
AFTER THE SLACK ONES
Clubs and Societies Required to Submit Books To Registrar for Auditing
"University Clubs and Societies must have their financial reports in this week," said George O. Foster, this morning. According to A. C. Hodges, professor of accounting who will oversee the auditing of the accounts, the Junior Prom and Soph Hop committees as well as all other University societies must submit a complete report within four thorough time for the thorough investigation of the liabilities and assets of each report.'
This is the first year the auditing has been done by the department of economics. Students will do the work on business and economics in Hodges. The reports are considered by the business department in the same light as those from the different departments of the University since it may be more or less closely linked together.
At the present time only one-fifth of the half hundred organizations have compiled with the instructions issued from Registrar Foster's office to the respective treasurers. Although there is no speci- fic reason for that, it should send in a report it is strictly demanded that each society do so.
REINTRODUCING JIMMY THE PET TOAD
A Squeal Producer
"Oh, it's a mouse! No it's a toad! O-oh, o-o's!" squewelled two nervous freshmen who were putting on the finishing touches in the basement of Robinson Gymnasium after a strentuous tryout for the May Pete. The toad cut across under his balcony, bath floor and into next section of the dimed quarters. The sweals dragged down the line as far as he went and it was not until an older student explained that the visitor had a perfect right to be there, that he had occupied those quarters a great longer than most of the girls, and that he was a harmless, friendly sort of pet, that the sweals had ceased. "Jimmy" is far too wise to appear on the scene, but someone else is in a hurry to go some places and find it necessary to take a short cut across the basement.
ALL WAS PREPARED, BUT NO GUESTS APPEARED
No one appeared at the Chancellor's office yesterday to take advantage of the opportunity to get a professional teaching certificate without having taken work in the School of Education. The day had been set for examinations in the professional education subjects. These examinations are open to all comers, whether they have been enrolled in the School of Education. Teachers often take examinations who have not even worked at the University, having studied the subjects privately at their leisure.
One woman had signified her intention of taking the examination but decided that she was not sufficiently prepared, and changed her mind. She will prepare herself by attending the summer session of the University. The examinations are given by the state board of education every year, in different locations for the sake of competence. Often only one or two take the examinations; the majority of teachers prefer to study the branches in summer school rather than burn the winter midnight oil while teaching.
Now that the dandelions have gone to seed special pains are being taken to cut the grass (?) on the Golf Links.
The fact that the daily paper that he receives might be seriously affected in case the Kansas National Guards were called to serve on the news team, he is said to have curried to the average person.

wo other men who work in the plant.

RESTING FOR TIGERS
Baseball Squad Put Through Only a Light Workout Today
BATTERIES NOT DECIDED
Craig May Go On Mound But McCarty Isn't Sure
A good hard work-out with the freshman squad wound up the week's work for the baseball squad last night. Today a light workout will be given to players in the first game, his best for the two-game Tiger series which starts tomorrow afternoon.
The Kansas offering on the mound for the first game was not announced yet this morning by Coach McCarty. The Kansas coach also hinted that there might be no annoinclement until the "umps" announced the batteries directly before the game started. The pitcher selected by Brewer for the first day made him McCarty debut. A good guess on the Kansas moundman would be Craig but a guess is all anyone could venture at this time.
BRYANT TO IURL FOR TIGERS?
On the Tiger squard Bryant will probably do the harling. He has been having great success all season until the second Kansas game on Rollins Field where he got batted clear off the bat and Taylor had to dive first game in Columbia against Kansas and proved very effective. In the first five innings Missouri piled up such a large score that Coach Brewer decided to take his star pitcher out of the merry-go-round and save him for the next day. But the next day did not come but Bryant got into the battle on the second day after that he disastrously lost two other round moundmen in Taylor and Giltner. One of these will work the second round unless the Tiger coach tries to use Bryant in both games again this week.
HAS SHIFTED LINEUP
McCarty has been working his men in many different positions this week. They have each one got a chance to see the game from different angles, Taylor, especially has been shifted around. His hitting this season has made it imperative for him to be in the game most of the time and McCarty is having a hard time. At first he was used as a pinch hitter, now he holds the right garden position. His batting average is up around .600.
But speaking of batting averages, George Smee is the boy with the big stick. In the second round at Missouri he landed four safe blows out of five in three outs. He is in his own game. Pitchers are not supposed to hit but Smee does not do what he is supposed to do. He holds down the left field job when he is not doing the hurling and he is in the sensational stuff in the gardens.
FIGHT FOR TITLE
The two games with Missouri this week will be the classiest of the season on McCook Field. The Valley title is at stake and McCarty and Hamilton have already appealed to the students to turn out for rooting whether they care for the game or not. But they will want to see the game. They can do it if they see the first they will not miss the second. The game tomorrow starts at 3:45 o'clock while the second one Saturday will start at 4:30 because of the high school track meet which starts early in the afternoon.
J. C. Mohler, commissioner of agriculture of Kansas will lecture to the students of the department of economics on "Agricultural Kansas," in Room 204, Administration Building at 2:30 Friday afternoon. On account of the baseball game between Kansas and Utah, placed at 2:30 so that the two events would not conflict. The lecture is open to the public.
Hunter Is Better
A telegram received from Mrs. J. S. Hunter, who was called last week to the bedside of her husband, Prof. S. J. Hunter of the department of entomology, states that Mr. Hunter's condition is not so serious as was at first supposed and that there need be no cause of alarm.

WHY IS HEAD OF K. U.
CALLED A CHANCELLOR
Why is it that the Universities of Kansas and Missouri are among the very few in the United States whose executive heads are called Chancellors, instead of the more common university president or Chancellor, under the Roman emperors, was the usurp behind the lattice of a doorway, called in Latin "cancelli," who introduced visitors and others. His duties increased in importance until he became the virtual arbiter of suits and counselor of state officers in recent time offices of state hold this title in most countries of Europe.
Even the head of the great monastic orders came to have Chancellors at their heads. The English University Chancellors are of ecclesiastical origin for the early purpose of the university was *t* train men for the priesthood and confined preaching functions, were awarded by the Notary of Chancellor. In the United States this title for the head of the University has been simple adaption of precedent. Perhaps the reason K. U. has a Chancellor instead of a President is because it was mainly through the influence of the Protestant Church that the University was first started and that the first Chancellor was the Reverend R. W. Oliver of the Protestant Episcopal church.

“That a lovely time was had” was the sentiment of the seventy-five Association men and women who attended the event, including those on the golf links last evening. Those attending were divided into six groups each of whom put on a stunt that served as a take-off on some of the men. Wienies were roasted over a bonfire.
After this part of the program, Ruth Plowman spoke on "Why I Went to Estes?" in which she set forth the reasons that should lead every University man and woman to attend the event. She told "What Estes Will Do For You" "why I Want to Go to Estes" "what I Want to Go to Estes" "how I talk of a talk by Lester Evans, while Prof. E. F. Engle answered the query, "Will Estes Help You in Choosing You" "Your Job" was the most appealing to every man and woman present to attend Estes this summer by the Association secretary, Hugo Wedell.

NAISMITH HAS NEWGAME
Originator of Basketball Works Out Sport That Promises to be Popular
Will be Best for H. S. and Inter-
class Contests
IS MUCH LIKE FOOTBALL
Doctor James Naismith, professor of physical education and the inventor of the game of basketball, has contrived another game, which promises to rival his basketball game in popularity.
As Dr. Naisimith started the game of basketball by having the ball first pitched in peach-baskets and grade-one throws, he was perfectly perfected as the game is played today; so is this new sport of his, going through an embryonic stage, in fact the inventor has been too busy with his experiments of the game to give it a name.
BEST FEATURES OF FOOTBALL
The game combines all of the best feature games with the ability of injury eliminated Doctor Naismith says that his latest innovation is not intended for an intercollegiate game but he thinks that it ought to make an ideal game for university students. University interclass participation.
HOW it IS TEXTED
The following excerpts from the rules of the game will give one an idea what the game is like:
fairly
The held shall be a rugby need 160x300 feet with rugby goals. The ball shall be similar to a soccer ball.
HOW IT IS PLAYED
Players. A team shall consist of 11 men. The uniform shall be the soccer uniform. They may take any of the field or play that their team may direct.

NEWS COURSES AT IOWA
Four Journalism Subjects to be Staged There Next Year
Four courses in journalism will be offered at the State University or Iowa next year for students who plan to make up new paper or magazine work.
A course in reporting and correspondence will be much similar to the course given this year under the name, "The Newspaper." It will cover the fundamentals of gathering and news for all classes of newspapers.
In a course in newspaper training, advanced students will be given opportunities for further practice. They will write stories for use in Iowa City newspapers, send dispatches to other state papers, and submit some special articles to magazines and trade journals.
Editing will be taken up in another course and an attempt will be made to understand how editors work on the various types of newspapers from the daily with a big staff to the weekly where the team works. Training will be obtained in editing the copy of beginning students and in many other ways.
The mechanical side of journalism will be studied in a course on printing in which the use of types and typesetting machines, presses, and other devices will be demonstrated. This latter course will be presented and will be given for it. Students sufficiently interested to want to know the mechanics of printing for the sake only of knowing will be admitted to the class.

AGGIES OUT FOR BLOOD
K. U. Will be Hard-Pushed In Dual Meet at Manhattan Today
1.1.4
DOPE FAVORS JAYHAWKS
Every Man Primed For Race of the Year
A dual track meet with the Kansas Aggies will be pulled off in Manhattan this afternoon. This will be the annual outdoor meet of the two teams and with favorable weather conditions but with rainy or cold weather the meet is liable to anybody's before the afternoon is over.
AGGIES WILL FIGHT HARD
of course, Coach Hamilton is not expecting as easy a time as he had on the indie tour in February. The score at that time was only 66 to 19 with Kansas leading. At that time, also the Aggies were confident of victory even to the extent of writing 44 to 11 all over town after someone had doped the nectar to come out with that score. On the outdoor track no Aggie follower has proclaimed a victory but they are after blood.
The big indoor score did not cause Hamilton's proteges to become confident in the least. They learned their lesson in that respect last year when Kansas lost the outdoor meet by three points after winning the indoor fracas by a good margin. They will not lay down in this meet as every man on the squad has his fighting blood riled up. They are not going to let every one is going to do his share by winning or placing in his own race.
TREWEEK OUT OF IT
The Kansas cripples may be able to get into the going on the Agja track. Rodkey's foot has been through a number of treatments by Trainer Markley and is coming along all right. By the time the Valley meet is pulled off next week he will be able to show the Valley middle distance men that his leg is in first class shape. Treweeke, the other cripple from his final audition, He jerked his strained muscle again yesterday which makes things look bad in the jumps for the remainder of the year.
The line-up for the meet will be about the same as in the other meets of the year. As in the Missouri meet this year, the lineup will be in a number of different combinations. Rodkey and Fiskie will probably run the half mile unless Coach Hamilton decides to use Sproull in this event again. This combination did not feature the two runners, so our last week and a new one may be used against the men of Merner. Grady is sure to face the star Teeter in the two mile run and this should be one of the prettiest races of the season it proved to be on McCook last year.
RELY ON HURDLES FOR POINTS
RELY ON HURDLES FOR POINTS
The coaches are looking to their hurdles to get away with a few points in this meet. In the early meets this year the hurdles have always proved to be the best point winners for Kansas opponents and the Jawhayker team has never been remedied. Kansas needs a Simpson or someone to cover the sticks and the remainder of the team could take care of itself.
The team left Lawrence at 11:58,
this morning for Aggieville and
will remain until tomorrow morning.
The members of the team will serve as
officials in the annual invitation meeting
in school students Saturday afternoon.

The next summer she will travel to Canada among the Thousand Islands, after which, Miss Elliot and her mother will return to Lawrence.
SUNDAY SPECIAL FAILS
Committee Succeeded in Getting Seventy Students to Sign for Trip
There will be no Billy Sunday special train from Lawrence. Over-confidence on the part of many people that the trim was assured and that it would be easier later is responsible for the failure of the plan to make good. As the money and the names of the people had to be in the hands of the railroad men by October, they were seventy-five required names only seventy-signed, the plan was given up.
No further effort will be made to run a special train as there will be too many events at home to take up the time. You will have to next week and no one will have time to spare for the run, while this week the baseball games with Missouri, the invitation meet, and the canoe regetta with many private affairs will fully consume any time not spent in final experiments or library reading.

WOMEN KEEP A SECRET!
All the king's horses and all the king's men, and all the men at K. U. can't draw out the secrets of the Women's Spring Formal to be given in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday night, May 20.
Director McCanles with a four-piece orchestra will be there, but he says he doesn't know a thing except that he has been asked to play until 11:60, and that the Grand March begins at 8:30 sharp.
No One Knows—Yet What Wil Be Doing at Spring Formal
Miss Gladys Elliot, who is managing the Formal, condescended to tell a reporter today that 200 are ex-servants of the school who requested to mask. There will be good eats, and the serving of the dinner will be decidedly novel. The idea of the menu and serving of the repast sorrowed from Child's in New York.
Pomp, ceremony and fun are to be general features of the evening. Of course there is a receiving line, where you can wave to the crowd. The majority will do the line too, for after the masks are removed, one will discover without doubt that he, I mean she, has shaken the hand of some name favorite, the Teda Bara or Mrs. Catt.

CONCERT IN ATCHISON
The Men's Glee Club leaves this afternoon for Atchison where they will give a concert similar to the one given there a month ago under the auspices of the Atchison high school. Sixteen men under the tutelage of Prof. Jude Downing and accompany Fred Brown '18 College and Phillip Steveens, 16 F. A., will make the trip. The men are making the trip as a sideline of the University activities and expect to have a good time as well as to represent the University. The possibility of a further trip to Kansas City next week and the opportunity to have had to be refused because of conflicting dates have encouraged the men and they are planning a number of events for next fall.
COLLEGES WANT PLAY
Other Universities Are Eager to Have "The Stuff of Laughter" Produced
The merit of Percy Shostac's phantasy, "The Stuff of Laughter," is shown by the recognition of critics from both the University of Chicago and the University of Wisconsin. Most critics were generous in their compliments of the play and want it put on at their respective schools.
Dean Lovett and Howard M. Jones, of the department of English at the University of Chicago, saw the play and said that the University would stand back of producing it at Chicago. Members of the Chicago Dramatic League were seen and a meeting of the league arranged, at which the financial submission and work was to be obtained, the financial obligations being considered too great for the University of Chicago to undertake alone.
The play was also seen and approved by Professor Dickerson, of the University of Wisconsin, who said conditions for staging it would be ideal in their open air theater at Madison.
According to Professor Shostec it
will be impossible to take the cast
away from Primo.
BIG SISTERS PLAN WORK
Upperclass Women to Help Freshmen Next Fall
The "Big Sister" committee held a meeting at Myers Hall yesterday afternoon, to discuss plans for next year. The motto of the committee is "love." The committee carries out the purpose of the committee to extend the "Big Sister Movement" among the women of the University, the upperclasswoman will each take charge of a freshman woman next year and she will carry the Y, W, meetings and to her own church her first Sunday in Lawrence. Other duties of the "Big Sisters" are to instil loyalty toward the University and respect for the faculty and for the council rules and support and uphold the honor sentiment.
Agnes Hurtzler is chairman of the committee and Mable McNaughton, associate chairman. The nine capitals are twelve or fifteen "Big Sisters" are, Abigail Bixby, Alyse Bowley, Agnes Hackerot, Irma Larrick, Iva Scott, Frederica Johnson, Marie Buchanan, Stevenenson, and Janet Thompson.
THROW FEBBLES TO
WIN TENDER HEARTS
Cave Method Used at K. U.
The red-blooded youth of K. U. have
developed a new method of amorous
dwarfry.
It is a return to the principles of our forefathers, sometimes referred to as cave men. In more popular language; it is the way of red-blooded Americanism that is manifest in the new manner of fanning the teder flame.
This is how it works: Several Romes e gather beneath the open windows of the Administration Building. They toss pebbles inside hoping by chance to smite a fair maiden on the head and thus reach her heart. If she squeals, Romeo knows that his messenger of Cupid has hit home.
One good thing about this method is that it is fair to the girls. Pretty ones have no better chances than the others. It is true hit or miss.
Besides, it satisfies as nothing else can, the peculiar sense of humor which is found among men at the University.
Phi Alpha Tau, honorary dramatic fraternity initiated the following men night at the Acacia house: Don Davis, Bob Smith, Sidney Moss. Eusebio Dyer, Rhody Moore and Henry Bean, Derek Crawford, a feed was served at Brick's.
Prof. W. B. Downing has appointed Dora Lockett, '17 F. A., manager of the Girls' Glee Club for next year.
MANY HEAR OPINIONS
Societies Announce Pledges Ahokus Are Introduced and Explained
TWO WOMEN ON PROGRAM
Ada Dykes Scores Politicians In University
Fraser Chapel has not seen a bigger crowd in years than gathered this morning at ten-thirty to hear the student day speakers register their knocks and praises of the faculty, legislature and members of the student body. "What's the matter with K. U." was unofficially the question for debate, and it was well handled "om every angle."
Those acquainted with Student Day programs of the past pronounced the speeches this morning the most animated and earnest for many years. Those who feared that the program would be deadened by a woman speaker were mistaken for Miss Dykes showed much pep and easeness. Instead of being only one woman speaker as was announced in last night's Kansan, there were two, also American writing, chosen yesterday afternoon to speak Graduate School. The School of Education was the only school in the University that was not represented on the program.
The crowd this morning began to gather as early as ten o'clock and when the speakers filed on the platform at a few minutes past ten-thirty, the hall was crowded for several yards outside of the doors.
Fred Whitten, the speaker from the School of Law and Ada Dykes starred in this morning's work. Both Miss Dykes and Mr. Whiten spoke with great earnestness and the care with which they had prepared their first reading of the book and use of spicy language to hammome home the most important points led one of the later speakers to refer to them as Billy and Ma Sunday.
The crowd this morning was full of life. The Engineers, Laws, Medics, and even the College gave their yells. Sunday's famous hymn, "Brighteen the Corner Where You Are," was taken up and passed around by the various Lawmen. The Laws, who probably sing more than anyone else, got away with their attempt to engineer who took up the refrain next miserably to keep together.
The University of Kansas came in for its share of praise as an institute by two of the speakers who have attended colleges and universities. Clarendon and Kenneth Uhls both told of the high place Kansas holds in the estimation of the eastern institutions, and how our faculty was appreciated away from home then at home where we rub up against them every day.
The Kansas state legislature and the University Senate came in for their share of the criticism. Mrs. Eustace Brown and Percy B. Shostac also got special mention, as did a number of the other faculty members and students. For the most part the speeches were general, but Mr. Whiton also asked Jakes introduced the personal element more into their talks, and from the way the crowd applauded, the pointed criticisms and puns pussed.
Uncle Jimmy Green and Chancellor Frank Strong received their share of praise. The speakers paid special tribute to Uncle Jimmy Green.
CHAMBER
The Student Day convention was officially opened at 10:35 a.m. by singing the "Crimson and the Blue" and giving "Rock Chalk." Today was the first public appearance of Kenedey, the newly elected Cheerleader; Rock Chalk given under his leadership was one of the best given in years.
SACHEMS ANNOUNCE PLEDGES
SACHERS ANNOUNCES PLEDGES
Paul Greere, vice-president of the Student Council was in charge of the convoction of the evidence of Junk Herriott, the president of the College who had to catch the train for Manhattan at 11:30. After a few preliminary remarks concerning the purpose of Students' Day, Mr. Lamas, the president of the Sachems, announced the following pledges for the coming year: Paul Greere, Clyde Vanderlip, Arnold Nordstrom, Clyde Gelvin, Fred McEwen, Hallieck, Craig, Ivan Dahl, L. R. Miller, H. W. Lawrence, E. Homer, John Herriott, Kenneth Principle, Harry Joseph Gaitskill, Paul Deal, A. H. Weiters, and Herman Olcott as honorary member.
The next announcement on the program was that of the five most popular men in the senior class by the White Crows. The list follows: Ken Robinson, Tony Wood, Iceland Thompson, Tony James and Alexander Creighton.
HONORARY SOCIETIES LAUNCHED Coach McCarty spoke next, announcing the launching of a new society in the University for the pro-

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the class than merely printing the news; rather than merely printing the news, he holds to: play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be generous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to develop an awareness of the students of the University.
FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1916.
THE COMING ATHLETE
The election of five members of Harvard athletic teams to the Phi Beta Kappa society last fall was greeted with a gasp of surprise in many western universities. Phi Beta Kappa keys and football suits have never been synonymous in the minds of students in the University of Kansas. It has been a sort of tradition that your star athlete would be at best not more than a mediocre student. But times, and athletes, have changed and the strong man is coming to his own.
The K. U. track team stands well in grades this year. Fred Rockey, its most scintillating star, is a straight one man. The other members are well above the general school average. It is only a matter of a few years until we of the University of Kansas will see the heroes of the gridiron and the cinder path with the scholarship keys dropped across their vests and then things will be as they should be.
The founding of the "Athletic Helpers of K. U." is going to do much to bring about this condition, if the organization is properly supported, and it is a worthy movement to say the least. Coach Olcott, in whose mind the plan originated, has been working it out ever since he came to the University last fall and he deserves great credit for the stand which he has taken toward the scholarship of athletes. The primary function of a University is the development of spirit and mind, not muscle, but a happy combination of the three will make its work more effective.
K. U. should boost the new organi zation.
"Onclet and Outcateria," the farce which the alumni will give during commencement week, might well bear the sub-title, "A Breakfast Hash."
THE VALUE OF TIME
The Summer Session will start the second week in June. Just enough time to work up a little "pep" after the finals. Many students who practically waste their summers and then complain about how much sooner the Germans complete their education than we Americans do, now have a chance to also graduate in three years.
That the work is even more pleasant than through the ordinary school year is the universal *omnion* of those who know. More plans for recreation are provided and Mount Oread with its heavy thick wall buildings is far from the hottest place in Kansas. Moving pictures for entertainment as well as educational purposes have been provided in large numbers for this summer. Several Victrola entertainments have also been arranged.
The increase in credits for summer work has now made it possible for students to graduate in three years without the customary breaks that always distract us for a few weeks of the fall term. Let the first year students consider this privilege of an A. B. in three years.
Caps and gowns for the faculty on Commencement day will be popular with both the undergraduates and the alumni. The robes of scholarship will add much to the occasion. There is a dignity about a professor in a cap and gown which he can never have in a sack suit and a panama hat.
DIGNITY AND DRESS
Besides it will give us an opportunity to see just what degrees the wise ones have.
LUCIAN I. BLAKE
Each day brings new evidence of the esteem and effection in which Prof. Lucian I. Blake, who died in Boston May 11 was held. Professor Blake, for whom Blake Hall was named, was for twenty years head of the department of physics and electrical engineering in the University of Kansas.
A letter just received by a member of the faculty says of him, "Few men were ever more inherently honest, frank and lovable than Lucian Blake. He was lovable not because he strove to make himself so, but because he could not be otherwise. His desire to be just and fair was constant; his disregard for money or fame or other worldly prizes was persistent; his unconscious determination to pay all men more than he owed and to collect less than his due was characteristic."
Such praise is not the mere empty flattery of one who feels that he must flay something complimentary about the dead, but a tribute from a friend for a friend whose friendship had been a source of inspiration. To comment upon the influence which such a man exerted upon his fellow workers and acquaintances would be idle. Cardinal Newman's definition of a gentleman may be more fittingly applied to Professor Blake, "He is tender toward the bashful, gentle toward the distant and merciful towards the absurd. He observes the maxim of the sage that we should ever conduct ourselves towards our enemy as if he were one day to be our friend."

WAR AND HUMOR
"It may seem paradoxical that the tragedy of the war should restore England's sense of humor, but I feel sure that this will be the case," says Pelham Grenville Wodehouse, the noted English novelist, in an article by Joyce Kilmer in the New York Times Magazine.
Mr. Wodehouse goes on to say that humor in England at present is restricted by class prejudice. Punch appeals only to the educated classes, and publications which cater to the lower classes are not read by any except people who are almost illiterate. Humorous stories to be read by upper class must deal with the life of butlers, butlers with butters, maids, country homes, or things which are part of the everyday life of that class.
Jerome K. Jerome was the first English humorist of any distinction, Mr. Wodehouse tells us, who wrote in the person of a man who had to work for a living. In his "Three Men in a Boat" he wrote, not in the conventional English way, in the third person, patronizingly and unquestionably, telling the audience of the story their humble holiday, but he wrote in the first person, making the narrator one of the three men.
"The American humorist is single-minded; he wants to be funny. The English humorist wobbles; he would like to be funny, but he is haunted by the fear of being vulgar. The English humorist has had ten years' training in repression, and the worship of good form at public school and university, and this cramps him. The American humorist has probably written a book about the appeal of a newspaper and his reverence for good form has worn thin. He aims to have his work have the punch at any cost."
The difference between English and American humor is due also to a difference in the breeding of the humor of two countries. Mr. Wodehouse says:
War is changing the humor of England, W. Modehouse thinks, because the classes are getting to know each other better. The foe; they are moved by a common impulse. Democracy will come out of the war where all classes are together on the battle field. And they don't write, nor for a class, but for England.
This change in the feeling toward humor, and the attempt towards a humor for all was beginning to be felt. This change in the feeling toward humor for all was beginning to be felt. The classes are being forced to know
each other better than ever before. They are discovering that they have many things in common, and one of these things is the sense of humor. This general sense of humor has been there all the while, but class distinctions have kept it from being recognized as a common possession."

It is said that England lacks cradles, this threat for the purpose growing in Belgium.
"WILLOW, WILLOW"
By Edith M. Thomas
Willow, willow, river-willow—you for cradles counted best,
Hand-raised hardwoods.
cradles counted best,
Hear you not that England's babies
Lack the springy woven basket, with the white hood overhead.
All in vain you call the willow. For we willows now are found
shielding happily a little sleeper in a snowy bed?
Bending with our load of sorrows ~
stopping till we sweep the ground!
None there are to trim our branches or to braid the plant strand —
All the willows now are weeping in
the stricken Flemish land!
Spring comes fearing—and retiretch!
Blight on every living branch
Men and trees and soil are bleeding from a wound Spring cannot
If our buds we could push forward,
they would crawl upon no green.
England, England, if our springy oisers you would have again,
For there's crimson on the rivers to whose shuddering lips we lean!
Cradles have we none for babies-
none with pleasant sleep and
sleep.
Willows, willows, river-willows, Eng.
land lands your large lament!
All the willows now are weeping by the haunted Flemish streams!
All her hearts of oaken fibre to you:
lifting shall be lent;
England strikes for you untring, till
unlight against you, stand—
Till no more the willows shall be weeping in the Flemish land!
upright again you stand—
As for myself I am sure that he would give me great pleasure to attend many of the functions which are given at the University. In fact I would like to spend an entire winter in Lawrence. It seems to me that the scores of journalists who were with you during Kansas Newspaper Week ought to make a supreme effort to give publicity to your activities.

Editor Dany Kansan:
I note a paragraph in the Kansan referring especially to the May Fete. I explain that the activities at the University are public and the publicity over the state which they deserve. You suggest that the students should invite five friends to attend when there was any performance of unusual excellence and I believe that this would be a good plan. However you should be sure that the persons invited could attend.

Storm forced it anyway," yelled the disconcerted rider as he pedaled away.

S. Dakota University President Visits Hill
Dr. Robert Lincoln Shagle, president of the South Dakota State College dropped hurriedly into Lawrence Wednesday night and spent Thursday or looking for an instructor in chemistry to take back to the north with him.
Incidentally, Dr. Slaughter was permitted to revisit his old friend and classmate, Prof. W. H. Johnson of the School of Education, with whom he became acquainted back at Johns Hopkins University in 1894.
South Dakota has claimed the services of Dr. Slagle for the past twenty-five years in different capacities, including professor to president of the college, and has seen the South Dakota Mechanical and Agricultural College develop from a little academic institution into a real college with an enrollment of five hundred students.
Speaking of his first impressions of K. U., Dr. Slagle said, "I am immensely pleased with your beautiful campus and wonderful views here at Kansas. You have one of the prettiest campuses in the country. I am particularly impressed with the effect which your uniform building material gives to the buildings here. It appears that we are built because we so lack such a uniformity at South Dakota. Ours are built of everything."
Dr. Slaughter left Thursday night for
his home, where as he expressed it,
he is in town.

motion of better standards of scholarship among athletes. The name of the society is "A. H. O. K. U." The purpose of the organization, as stated by Coach McCarty, will be to aid all athletes in the University in keeping up with the demands of a membership of twenty-five, half of whom are to be chosen at the end of the year from the sophomore class, to remain active for two years following. The names of thirteen junior who have been chosen as the charter members of the organization were appointed and named, so is purely honorary, and the members pledge themselves to give everything they have of genius, aggressiveness, and time to the betterment of athletes and athletics at the University.
Don't say you weren't invited.
You ARE.
The first speaker on the program of regular Student Day speakers was Jamison Vauter, representing the School of Engineering. Vauter spoke against the idea of seating the schools separately at the athletic contests, and encouraged the students for better "The Engineers are behind the University to a man," said Mr. Vauter, "and the students who can't leave their work for a few minutes to support athletic events—if they cannot find it, they will contempt of the whole school."
Joseph Campbell for the School of Pharmacy said that the Pharmics had but one grievance to name, and that was against the state legislature, which refused to give them a building of their own.
Fred Whitten, for the Laws, made probably the best speech of the day. The first few minutes of his remarks were in the form of a sarcastic burlesque, hitting at the students and the University Senate for their mistaken attempt to challenge the Law. He touched upon the rally of a year ago last fall as an example, and accused Percy Shostac of bringing the University into a sisterish attitude over the beauties of art. His remarks became more serious and the police responded by shooting who had given the School of Law a black eye as being a snap school. He stated that the "Morning Watch" idea was being overworked, and that it was not the spirit of the School of Law to be crude or insulting. He scored the job of building the school and of their building to College classes. His best point, was the scoring of a number of faculty members who had been so little as to criticize Dean Green. He closed his speech by begging the rest of the University to be guilty of the Laws, as they had been towards the rest of the University.
The first woman speaker to appear on the Student Day platform was Ada Dykes. She opened fire on the men of the University from the very start, where she placed a place saying that women should have rights in the University they have outside. She hit at the men politicians, and politics in general at the University. Mrs. Brown and the twelve o'clock dance rule were brought up and aired with some difficulty and recreated with some made a plea to the students to wore for the Mill Tax, and brought Gov. Capper's word to support it. She paid a fine tribute to Chancellor Strong and Uncle Jimmy Green. Miss Dykes's speech was full of pep and many personal slams and similes, the majority of which received good naturally by the audience.

Word has been received of the death of Prof. Robert Irwin Fulton, Dean of Oratory and Professor of Oratory and Elcution in Ohio Wesleyan University, widely known lecturer, scholar and writer, and recognized as one of the world's greatest masters in the field of 18th-century professor Fulton was assisted Professor in Elcution and Oratory at the University of Kansas.
Clarendon Havingurst, who spoke for the Journalists, declared the Kansas had been serving as the official University goat for this year. He left out all petty personalities but made a good humored allusion to Billy and Ma Sunday which greatly pleased the crowd.
Ohio Wesleyan Professor, Famous Lecturer, Was Once K. U. Instructor
Miss Anna Baker, representing the Graduate School, gave a short history of the school and made a strong plea to the faculty for less hours and more consideration so that the graduate students might have time to become more than grinds and really representative of the student body.
Death came last Thursday at his home in Deleware, Ohio where for several weeks he has been making a valiant though hopeless struggle against carnea, an almost incurable disease of incurable nature. He was 61 years old.
President Woodrow Wilson, who is considered one of the most powerful and polished orators of today, was one of Professors Fulton's students in obsession with his work and the two men were close friends. Among the many letters and telegrams received during the last few days of his illness from friends over the United States and the entire world, one message, but a few days before his death, was from President Wilson expressing deep interest and sympathy.
"The Glee Club has given up the plan of giving a concert in Kansas City," said Paul H. Sautter Thursday afternoon. "We are giving the concert at Atchison on our own hook and our expenses will be high as we have no concerts on the way. So we have given up the Kansas city trip. Prof. William B. Downing will not be able to accompany us to Atchison."
Lester A. Sprinkle, First Lieutenant of the K. N. G.'s took a squad of men out yesterday afternoon and stationing them ten yards apart, sent the following message down the line: "Enemy 200 yards below the island on left bank of river." In a few seconds the message had gone the circuit with only one mistake; "left" had been changed to "west"
The death of Professor Fulton means the passing away of one of the foremost lecturers, writers and teachers in the United States. His ability won him world-wide recognition. Crowned heads of Europe have entertained him, and audiences all over the world have listened to his addresses. Professor Fulton made three trips to Europe and one of them visited Berlin. In these trips he visited and lectured in all the large cities, including Berlin, London, and Paris. While in India he lectured in the palace of one of the native rulers, an honor which is seldom conferred upon strangers.

Today's Game Starts Series for the Missouri Valley Championship
HERE COME THE TIGERS!
They Took the Train Yesterday "Red of Tooth and Claw."
It was a pleased bunch of baseball bugs who rolled over in bed this morning to see the rising sun coming up in the east without a cloud near it. And they had a right to be pleased. For it meant that one of the fastest baseball games of the year would be pulled from the field without interruption from I. Pluvius unless the latter arrived late in the afternoon.
All is set for the big game this afternoon. Twelve Tigers left Columbia at 3:40 yesterday afternoon and reached Lawrence late last night. Coach Brewer has his men in the same good condition that the men of McCarty has and neither team will suffer from lack of training. The biggest and strenuous work this week in preparation for the big games and the three star pitchers were working fine in the last practice yesterday afternoon.
MUST WIN BOTH GAMES
The series which starts this afternoon will decide the Missouri Valley championship. But in order to do so either team must win both games of the series. In the case of a complication will result that may cause a split in the title for the year. At the present time both Missouri and Kansas have lost only one conference game. Missouri has two conference games and Kansas has the Kansas series while K. U. has yet to play the Ames Aggies and the Kansas Aggies. In case of the split in the Tiger series this week a defeat for either Kansas or Missouri in any one of the remaining games means the loss of the season.
MAX PUT SMEE IN BOX
MAY FUT SAME
Urban, vertebrate morning it looked like Craig was doing the hurrying for the Kansas squad but the dope last night indicated that George Smee would do the mound work for Kansas. McCarty will probably use Smee against the Missouri star pitcher, Bryant, this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon for use against one, Mr. Taylor of the Brewer squad.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
The game this afternoon starts at 3:45. Put tomorrow afternoon the big battle will not start until 4:30 on account of the high school track meet. The track meet and baseball game tomorrow can be seen for one admission and this feature alone will attract an unusually large crowd.
Mrs. Eustace Brown requests that all students who participated in the Scotch Dance at the Halloween Party and who are still owing for the gingham for their costumes, please call at once at her office and pay the small amount. The greater part of this bill is still unpaid, and it is unfair to expect the merchants to carry the account any longer.

Municipal Reference Bureau Has Most Others Skun a Mile
OUR'S CAN'T BE BEAT
Communities of the State of Kansas have a Municipal Reference Bureau which is excelled by only two other bureaues of the kind; those of Iowa and California. That the cities of the state are appreciative of the service of the bureau is shown by the number of requests for information that come in to Mr. Charles Tallman. Dozens of times the last year Mr. Talbot has answered 472 inquiries from persons living in Kansas.
The Bureau is supported by the University and by the League of Kansas Municipalities. Besides cooperating with the Kansas League and the National municipal leagues, the Bureau edits a monthly review of municipal progress and problems, and provides lectures for various kinds of municipal welfare meetings, dealing with a wide variety of subjects.
Mr. Talbott is particularly well fitted to place at the service of Kansas communities exact information on social engineering, and to help the communities of Kansas to solve their problems. He works at the University of Michigan, DePauw and Wisconsin along economic and legal lines
The work of this department is systematized to a point of unusual efficiency. Filling cabinets contain classified information as to the work performed by the staff, and those are kept carefully up-to-date. The map and tack system is used to keep account of the cities of the League. Those cities that are paid up active members are marked on the map with black headed tacks. The predominate task on the map is proof the progressiveness of Kansas towns and cities.
the May number of "The Public Servant," a magazine for the promotion of training for public service, or the work of the department as follows:
"It is a good sign when universities will specifically advise communities on subjects as these. There are today many universities both publicly supported and privately endowed that would hesitate about answering such an inquiry and would then refuse. Keep up the good work, Kansas! You are now doing a service that all university students will be dug in to learn. And this recognition of the real duty to place its knowledge at the service of society is a first step and a long one in training men who can give such services to communities in the interest of the communities."
Here's how to put yourself to sleep. It's a rare bit, invented and tried out by Prof. R. M. O. Mogen himself. His 11:30 class in Psychology received the first instruction. They provided that the patient first retire for the night, then return home, the shake-up ensued, and patient they immediately fell into heavy slumber.

OATMEAL FARCE SUCCESS
300 Women Attended Play at Unitarian Church
"A most successful farce," is the verdict of the 300 women who saw the tragedy, "Omelet and Omaalnea," at the Uitianatian church last night.
The play is a take off on canned goods and breakfast foods and was written by Mrs. Ona Winnant Borland, of Kansas City. Seventeen women of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae presented the play. The opening scene showed E. M. Carr as an army soldier, struck upon hearing the voice of the ghost of Chanticleer coming from the graveyard. Queen Milk, Miss Esther Swenson, and Fraudius, a can ofBoneless chicken, Miss Nadine Nowlin, have conspired together and have poisoned Chanticleer, king of Illville. The ghost of Chanticleer appears before Omelet, the Haken Hopes, and each him to avenge his murder. Omit promises. He also tells Oatmealia, Miss West, with whom he is in love, to flee from the castle of Illigalone to a sanitorium and warns her that in the eating of prepared breakfast food she will meet her fate. She becomes insane and in the mad scene scatters "wild oats" after which she dies of an unknown illness. A guilt of Milk and Fraudius and in the last scene he stabs the leading characters.

TIGERS STILL IN LEAD
Final Settlement of V. Champs Rests on Later Games
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 22, 1916
An even break of Friday and Saturday's crucial series for the Valley championship was the best Coach McCarty's baseball warriors were able to score against Coach Brewer's Tiger team. And it was 4. Smee staying in the box the entire game with little more than luck and a glove.
Saturday afternoon despite a poor drizzling rain that fell throughout the game, the K, U. team succeeded in handing the Tigers a 13 to 6 defeat. Craig pitched a fair game and was aided greatly by his team in which eight Jayhawkier runs were scored off Taylor and Moran.
NUMBER 157
Just how the question of the Valley conference championship will be set tettled is hard to forecast. If Kansas wins s four remaining Conference game with Ames and the Aggies and the win their two remaining game b the Aggies and the will Brewer an effort will be made to stage three game post season series early on June.

FOUR STUDENTS TO CAMP
Other K. U. Men Are Planning on Military Training
At least four University of Kansas men have determined to 'tend the summer military training camps this year. A number of others have stated their interest in them but have not definitely decided whether they would "give their vacations to their country," or not.
J. R. Grinstead, '18 College, from Pawhuska, Okla., will go to the Fort Oglethorpe camp June 3rd, and will remain until the 20th. John Caryle, from Pawhuska, Okla., will go to H. A. Lorenzo will go to the camp at Plattsburg. Carey will go in July, but Lorenz has not decided what time he will be able to attend. C. H. Sacher, freshman, college guard Holly Holland practically can go to one of the camps.
"Great interest is being manifested in the camps this year," said Lorenz. "The Plattsburg camp has been opened since May 3rd and there are already more than 8,000 there, so able to form a size that the camp will attain when the schools and universities begin to send their delegations.
"I would like to see K. U. have a good representation this year," he continued. If the students could realize the benefit that they receive from a recreational and educational standpoint, they would not hesitate to go. Niles and myself formed the K. U. delegation last year and I cannot estimate the value that we received from the experience and training.
The expense connected with the military training camps is not heavy. Each member must provide himself with a military suit and a pay fee of twenty-five dollars, regular United States army officials, medical attention, etc. To become a member it is necessary that the applicant be between the ages of eighteen and forty-five. He must be of sound physical condition able to state in camp life, he must possess a college or high school education. He must also bear an excellent character in the community where he lives.
The W. S. G. A. announces that the date rule is off for the remainder of the school year according to the custom of previous years, hence continues to close at 10:30 clock except on Friday and Saturday.
Polit Club's Last Meeting

Important Issues Up For Discussion That Require Sentiment of Entire Class
"I am particularly anxious that all the members of the senior class attend tomorrow as it is the last meeting of the year," said Randolph, "the purpose of the meeting aside from stirring up enthusiasm is to settle several important questions that must have the vote of the entire clr.
"At this meeting we .. d to put the finishing touch to several of the big surprises of commencement week. All the members should come armed with suggestions and advice and we will see that everyone can voice his or her opinion in any of the matters discussed.

PROF. OGDEN TO SPEAK
Gives Last of Faculty Lectures —Course Continued Next Year
Prof. R. M. Ogden of the department of psychology, will deliver the second of the "Thursday Afternoon Faculty Lectures," in Fraser Hall Thursday, May 25, at 4:30 o'clock. He has taken as his subject, the title o Cardinal Newman's great essay, "The Idea of a University."
This will be the last lecture of the year but a series of eight have been arranged for the coming year, Dean Olin Templeln hopes that this new movement will become so popular that it will establish a college tradition.
There are many capable speakers among the members of the University faculty, and no doubt they will give us a chance to out-sidere. The students will have an opportunity to hear the faculty members in other roles than instructors; they will learn a base of the faculty cannot be displayed in the classroom.
At the end of each year, it is hope,
that the lectures can be collected and
published in a volume which will be
put in general circulation.

Kenny Wright was first chosen to represent Company M but failed to pass the physical examinations because he had a wound received on the range here.
Decker enlisted in Company M in 1942, and now holds the company's warrant.
A number of students in discussing Ada Dykes' talk at the convocation Friday morning arrived at the conclusion that if they possessed her dramatic and oratorical ability they would not be mere students, attending the University of Kansas they would be lightning-rod agents.

STORY OUT AT LAST BACCALAUREATEMAY28
The Mysterious Girls' Forma Screams Itself to
Success
IT WAS A MOTLEY CROWD
Martha and Geo. Hobnob With Castle and Sis Hopkins
The Girls' Spring 'Formal held in Robinson Gymnastium Saturday night, was such a decided success that a series of manne dances will be given next year. In spite of rain and a shortage of taxis, 150 young women attended, dancing until all lights were out.
Judging from some of the costumes there were several delegates from Manhattan on the floor; Jacks and Jills and paws went up the Hill to minibar tables, where the point was represented, adding bidity and patriotism to the evening. Berta Eichauer and Patty Hart as Martha and George were the official chaperons, however they were unaware that the pigeon-walkers among the guests.
The imported dancers were considered the best ever seen here, they had special music and special steps. Senior Moreno, Dorothy Cole, and Senorita Caverna, Annette Ashton, gave a demonstration of their Italian engrafter, Gladys Elliott, with a trained monkey created a perfect furre. The monkey, Georgia Gray, of Kansas City, displayed more than the usual apish intelligence; it did every thing but talk. Its mastery of the art of aesthetic dancing was discovered by Suspikins cut all of her dances with Vernon Cassell, Mabel Elmore, to pigeonwalk with the missing link.
The refreshments were served on the lower floor of the Gym a la cafeteria, the gentle woman essorted the fair partner about the table heaped with goodies and she made her selection; this done they went to the music room to listen to the "Sympathy Trio."
The track meet afforded amusement for all and exercise for those who did not dance. Many of the contestants appeared in full dress, only one found it necessary to remove his coat in order to break the world's record in throwing the discus, Minnie Moody broke the record.
There were no wall flowers in atten dance, and nobody sat out any dances. Who could resist McCanles' redefinition of mighten the Corner Where You're ain't?

DUAL MATCHES TODAY
Missouri Tennis Team Comes to Lawrence For Two-Day
Meet
The tennis team of the University of Missouri come to Lawrence this morning for the dual match with Captain Teacher's bunch from Kansas today and tomorrow. The matches will be played this afternoon, tomorrow morning and afternoon. Four rounds of singles and one match of doubles will decide the winner of the dual engagement.
A M. V. MEET THIS WEEK ALSO
The match with Missouri was scheduled for Friday and Saturday of last week but he had to be carried into last week, made it impossible for the Missourians to be here until this week. Both Missouri and Kansas will have another match this week when they go to Des Moines for the annual Mike coiffes.
Captain Teachener will probably use three men in the match with Missouri this week. O'Brien won one and lost one single match in the Oklahoma meet last week in the game, a good game time and his team had the racket was sufficient to warrant his getting a chance at Missouri this week. In the doubles Teachener chose Allie Cowgill as a partner and the combination was strong enough to win a double, combination, Robinson and Tweeter. There is a possibility that Cowgill may be used in the singles as well as the doubles in this match.
SAME TROUCH TO DO
In the Valley meet Friday and Saturday the same three men will probably participate. With Captain Allen he attains his usual speed he will have a fine chance to win the singles of the Valley and it may be necessary to use Cowlgill and O'Brien in the doubles so as to save Teacheren for the singles. The men will leave for Des Moines Thursday night.
The Board of Alumi visitors have completed the report which will be given at the meeting of the Alumi Association on Tuesday of commencement week. The members of the committee refuse to disclose the nature of the report, and the Board will probably as last year's report. The board will probably not have any more meetings before the association meeting in June.
Vrgil Gordon, ed '16 will teach English and journalism in the senior high school at Winfield, next fall, newspaper work during the summer.
Alumni Meeting
SIGMA CHIS BEAT SIG ALPHS
IN EXCITING BALL GAME
In one of the most exciting games ever played in a Pan-hellenic series, the Sigma Chis defeated the Sig Alphs 7 to 6 on Hamilton Field Thursday afternoon. As has been the case in the other two games played by the Sigs this season, the pitching of Baker was the feature.
At the end of the fourth timing the score stood 6 to 5 in favor of the Sig Alps, but in the last half of the game, both teams got and the lead which they held.
The game was exciting from the very start, although a bit loose in spots. Noel started in the box for the Sig Alphs but was relieved in the first inning. Costly errors allowed runs for both sides, and, taken as a whole, the break of luck was about even.

AGGIE MEET WAS FAST
Good Time In All Events and Two Records Were Smashed Friday
NOW FOR VALLEY CONTEST
Kansas Stands Good Chance at Columbia Races
BROKE OWN DISCUS RECORD
The Kansas Aggies proved to be a more formidable opponent for Kansas on the outdoor cinders than they did on the indoor track but Coach Hamilri gave it a tough fight in defending the Aggies in Manhattan Friday afternoon, 66 to 43. The score for the indoor meet was 66 to 19 in favor of the Kansas men. This means the Aggies scored more points in this meet while Kansas failed to enlarge her former score.
In spite of a threatening run one track was fast and the day great for a track meet. Fast time was made in almost every event on the program but only one K. U, and one Aggie record were knocked off the shelf. The second record, in Ribbed Rookey and O'Leary, set up a mark of 3:24:11 in the mile race which clips four seconds off the old record set by Cissna, Henderson, Ellswick and Edwards in 1914. Dobrill, Aggie weight man, broke his school record when he left the Alarm 122 feet apart. Their former record was 121 feet 4¼ inches.
O'Leary tied his record of 50 1-5 seconds in the quarter-mile Friday. He had set the mark up as a K. You record only the week before and tied it again the next chance he got. He was the first to win this week he will probably lower the mark below the fifty line. Davidson, spinner, was another fast stepper on the Kansas team. He ran the 100-yard dash in ten flat which is the fastest in the state. Kansas for some time. He was not pushed in the 220-yard dash but made fairly good time anyway. O'Leary took an easy second in this race also.
The pretty two-mile race which was looked for between Teeter and Grady did not materialize. Teeter was in first class shape for the race and won easily in 10:03:11 with Stateler finishing three seconds behind. Grady had trained down too soon and was stale for the race. He ran well all the way but was unable to put on his usual strong finish. Both Stateler and Grady failed in the race with blood from bad spikes by opponents and one of Stateler's wounds is liable to cause him trouble the remainder of the season.
Kansas made a clean sweep in three events, the 220-yard dash, the quarter-mile and pole vault, while the Aggries were only able to get one clean sweep. This was in the high hurdles when Wilder nosed Winn out by three inches. Winn came back with a second in the low hurdles a moment later.
Two K. U. records had a narrow escape in this meet. Captain Bonnie Rebe threw the shot 43 feet 2-34 inches which is only 3-4 of an inch less than the K. U. record which he threw on his way to the mile run which Sproul ran in 4:32. This is only four-fifths of a second slower than the record set by Edwards in 1914. Both of these records will probably fall in the Valley columbia Saturday unless some dark horse roamers in for a first place.
Work this week will be directed toward the Missouri Valley Conference meet which is held in Columbia Saturday afternoon. In spite of the defeat by Missouri last week Kansas won by 10 points at least get a good second. The different schools in the Valley will split in most events in such a manner that Kansas with a few consistent winners might be able to take in a pretty large score. Simpson will be unable to take his five firsts in this meet, summed up in comparison and heats that will be necessary in all his races.
FULL SQUAD TO COLUMBIA
The preliminaries will be held on Friday afternoon and will necessitate Coach Hamilton's taking his quarter-milers to Columbia Thursday morning. The remainder of the team will take their morning. A full squad will be taken to this meet and every man will get to enter.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go for more than merely printing the new course. The University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to teach the new course; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to encourage students to satisfy the students of the University.
MONDAY, MAY 22, 1916.
MOTHERS OF KANSAS
The Students' Day speaker from the College made an unfortunate statement when she suggested that the adviser of women might be washing clothes instead of mothering the women of the University, should certain events come to pass. The statement was unfortunate not in that it was a criticism of the adviser of women, but in that it intimated that there is something fundamentally wrong with manual labor. It suggested a certain snobbishness which the Kansan is confident the women of the University do not possess.
There may be some women at K. U. who speak of wash women with a sneer but they constitute a weak minority. Honest labor deserves the highest consideration and those people who are inclined to look patronizing upon their less fortunate brothers who hew and carry do not represent the spirit of Kansas.
There may be students in the University whose mothers have to wash clothing. The women of Kansas would do such things to educate their children. They are glorified by the sacrifice.
We are all the descendants of pioneers. The pioneer's wife did not hesitate to do the family wash nor 'fill the family water pail from the spring. She worked hard and long with both mind and body and the results are everywhere to be seen. The men and women of the University are her sons and daughters.
Whatever the intention of the speaker from the College, her speech left an unpleasant after-taste in this one respect, at least. Wash women, or any other members of the laboring class, deserve and receive only the respect of a majority of the students in the University.
Missouri has defeated us in track again and it is time for every student who is interested in athletics to make a personal effort to get more athletes in the University. While you are home during the summer months why not boost K, U, athletes among the high school stars of your home town?
BURNING DAYLIGHT
The daylight-saving plan suggested by the Lawrence Merchants' and Farmers' Association is neither new nor revolutionary. It has been used successfully in many American cities and was recently adopted in London, following the example of Berlin and Vienna, as measure of economy during the war. Whether it will be necessary to move the clocks back an hour or not is a question. If everybody would get up an hour earlier and go to bed an hour earlier without changing the hands of the timepieces all would be well. But it is to be doubted if the people would do this.
To the Kansan the measure seems sensible. It would result in a great saving in the consumption of electric current. It would make business and
study hours cooler and more comfortable. "Burning daylight," as one of Jack London's heroes suggests, is criminal.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise."
Receipt for a political campaign:
To one part popularity, add two parts nerve, three parts slander, four parts promise, two parts denunciation of machine and two parts post-election alibis. Stir thoroughly and take while hot.
LOOK BBEFORE YOU——!
While the majority of students are clamoring for the installation of a course in compulsory military training at the University of Kansas few realize the significance of the movement they are trying to "father." Three long drills weekly, long likes in unfavourable weather monthly, a tight-fitting uniform and a gun practice constitute a number of the hundred and one details of the so-called popular form of preparedness. Furthermore, membership in the collegiate company calls for unexpected interruption from classes and business. Chancellor Strong is right in his firm stand against the institution of such a course.
And now the news dispatches say that skirts and stockings will each get shorter when the summer really comes. Perhaps the time when they'll paint 'em on isn't so far distant as we formerly imagined.
For three years the club women of this state have been making a determined fight for a "clean Kansas." During two of these years they had little help or encouragement, but this year they have the aid of state law and many local ordinances, as well as organizations of school boys and girls throughout the state. In every community that supports a street cleaning department officials must set the machinery of the law at work on every bad spot reported by any of the women's inspectors.
It is said that the streets and yards are cleaner this year than ever before.—Independent.
LEARNING FROM TUMBLES
It does not matter how many tumbles you have in this life, so long as you do not get dirty when you tumble. There is the greatest practical benefit in making a few failures in life. You learn that which is of inestimable importance—that there are a great many people in the world who are just as clever as you are—and you soon find out if you have not found it out before, that patience and tenacity of purpose are worth more than twice their weight in cleverness.

POETS CORNER
THE COUNTRY EDITOR
He might have been a millionaire,
And with financial fame,
Or sat in a director's chair,
Had money been his aim;
He chose instead to spend his years
In service poorly paid.
And with the paste pot and the
shears
THE COUNTRY EDITOR
He hiccuped the town's events---
The local goings-on:
A humble living made
The local gongs on;
His fellow townmen's hopes and
bents
Inspired his lexicon.
He felt the public pulse that beat
Around him, and he tried
To make his little country sheet
A thing of local pride
Indignaant Seniors.
Essays in Tabloid Tablets
Unseafolly, with all his heart,
He strove but to upbuild
His town, of which he was a part,
With great ambition filled.
He spoke well of his fellow men;
He praised when praise was due;
And wielded but a kindly pen,
And—no reward he drew.
Now who has ever seen a pacifist or a militant that had no fight in him? Usually the pacifist is one of the most ardent fighters of the group of human beings who have fought for doing battle upon a different philosophy from that of the militant.
Probably Henry Ford is as strong an advocate of militarism as Theodore Roosevelt was.
ARE PACIFISTS MILITARISTS?

TREE WORMS
Ed. and Pub.
When the trees begin to blossom,
And their limbs with leaves to
deck,
Comes the sprightly little tree worm
Drops upon the co-ed's neck.
When the trees begin to blossom,
Tree worms are. A species of crawlers. Which infest trees. In the Spring and summer. They are cold blooded and. Feel like icicles when they crawl across one's. Check. Or neck. The chief function. Of a Tree worm. Seems to be. Falling. If you go. On a picnic. They fall into the. Salad. Or the. Coffee. If you go. Strolling they. Drop on your. Date's arm and. She squeals. And when you try. To brush them. Off. They explode. And leave. A nasty. Stain on her. Arm. A tree worm is a cross. Between a spider. And a. Monkey. They have webs like. The one. And can climb trees. As well as the other. If God made. Tree worms. He made a. Mistake. For they are of. No earthly use. And are a pest. And a delusion.
A plain, ordinary game-cock might be called a pacifist, but a plain, ordinary game-cock spurred with gafs and cleared for battle would be more difficult than the two cocks that were totally unprepared would put up a fight somewhat after the fashion of an Elizabethan football game or Bradstreet brawl. The two cocks of the militaristic type would do justice only to a modern day battle. But prepared or unprepared the game-cocks have the fight in them.
To the Editor of the Kansan:
As members of the College we wish to protest against the speech made on Students Day in the name of that student. We feel that of practically the whole school that the speaker did not in any way represent the view point or sentiment of the College. Being to a large extent women the College of course stands for Woman's Suffrage, but it did not elect its speaker to conduct a quagmire campaign from the platform.
CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent
We should deem it most unfortunate if the other schools of the University should think that our criticisms were so petty as the personal nature of the work. We regret indeed that one of our number should use the honor bestowed upon her, even though it was the result of clever rail roading and a misunderstanding of the political situation on the part of the men, to wreak havoc by attacking both herself and other members of her family. Neither do we approve of the cruel, disgusting and altogether unladylike manner in which she criticized certain members of the faculty. Our humiliation at having the College receive this lengthy apology. We certainly trust that in the future such an unfortunate combination of circumstances will not result in the election of one who fails to express the spirit of the largest school in the University.
manufacturer finds the militarist apparently the strongest man of the hour, he prefers to exert his superfluous energy by the round about way of fighting the militarist. The fight is a battle with the militarist. In the term of militarism, Henry Ford is unprepared, but in the terms of sociology he is prepared to the teeth with weapons of silver and gold with which to purchase ammunition to fire his guns and launch his peace torpedoes.
William Jennings Bryan has been a fighter since 1896; perhaps longer, but political history fails to record the military prowess of the Nebraska colonel prior to that date. Mr. Bryan during the past year has been ready to pursue his enemy and maintain his line of communication though his line of attack takes him over the entire middle west. Nor is Mr. Bryan a hyphenated militaristic advocate. He hues to the line and does not quibble with the sending of notes between parties.
He is so thoroughly prepared that he can hurt a million men over the course of his life.
he can hurl a "million men over night" at the throats of the enemy. John Mex, lecturer for the World Peace Foundation, is another of the round-about-militaristic type. He is a fighting man. In Germany at the time of his war he was a prisoner of humanity who could give fight which would do justice to the blood of John Mez, were the preparedness advocates. Since his conversion he has had fighting a plenty. Coming closer home, Lawrence has its fighting parson, Noble S. Eldersen, the incoming director of the Congregational faculty, the Congregational minister might have been a first class Panco Villa had he been reared on the opposite side of the border. At Verdum the attacking force sends a shell into the city each minute. At the Congregational church in Merkdena lies his regular preparedness shell of the militariess each Sunday night. But gafs or no gafs, the militarians and the pacifists are both fighters.
ENFORCE THE LAW
Editor of the Danny K. Moore
Certain things need to stand out as
unpleasantness "unpleasantess"
which is taking place between the
forces of nicotine and their opponents.
Both sides may have those who
have gone to rather radical extremes in personal abuse, in which the users of the cigarette are labelled as reckless young roughnecks, bound straight for perdition; and those, who, for various reasons of their own, do not smoke, are caricatured as silly milkspokes, or as the "holier than-thou" sort of person. In order to get at them they should not it be wise to forgo all personal abuse, inuendo, and other belittling arguments, and let "each tub stand on its own bottom."
It seems that there is one class of smokers who, admittedly smoke to excess so that it does hurt them physically and mentally and who are powerless to break the rules. The other class smokes moderately for the sake of fellowship or pleasure but has the strength to keep the habit within bounds. Now, admitting even the personal liberty argument, is there room to forego the luxury in behalf of those who are harmed by smoking.
But after all this is arguing in defense of the laws on the subject when that is not really the question. State laws and local regulations do exist and as such should be enforced, but it is also the laws he should go about it in the usual manner and not encourage the breaking of them.

Editor Daily Kansan:
At this time when the state university is under test in the minds of many men, it is most unfortunate that the men of these universities, most of them very, very young men should do and then publish accounts of their doings that will make misimpressions in the minds of men.
The state university is a necessity and as a necessity it cannot be stopped, but as a stone warrior of far-reaching ripples so any act that tends to hinder the progress of the universities affects many people and deprives them of many things that they reason from the common cooperation.
Smoking has been a problem in universities for many years. It will be a problem for many more years. The greatest harm done is the excessive indulgence that many freshmen consider as manly and cosmopolitan. They obtained their ideas from the rah-rah of the university, its popularly supposed to represent the average student. This thing always has a cabalah or humidor in its face. The man in the poetter is no more representative than the pipe he carries. Any worthy freshman soon gets his bearings and picks out the real things—the other class is hardly worth bothering with. Sanity on both sides is necessary, but neither new nor exciting, will attain greater results and will be a boon to everyone. It will cause no mis-impressions in the minds of men outside the university and will not disturb the ordinary

N GRADUATING RECITAL
miss Jarvis Majors in Organ Music
The fifth of the graduating recitals of the School of Fine Arts was the organ recital given by Miss Mary Jary in Fraser Hall Saturday afternoon.
Miss Jarvis received her Mus. B. degree in piano last year and this year did graduate work with pipe organ as her major subject. She is undoubtedly one of the most talented and brilliant of the students who have graduated in organ at the University. Her first group, which consisted of a Bach prelude and a somata in two chords, was performed professionally to the best advantage how through Miss Jarvis' technical training has been. She played these numbers with clearness and accurateness seldom disdained by a student.
In her last group, and especially in the Tocata by Mailly, Miss Javis has great opportunity to display her techni- brilliance to best advantage.
Miss Cila Scheurer, a special student in the School of Fine Arts, who has a contralto voice of unusual quality assisted. The program follows:
Prelude in B minor. ___ Bach
Organ Sonata, No. 2 in C minor

Did You Ever Wish?
Sure! Most of us do. But when the birds begin to sing and the flowers commence to bloom and old Mother Nature decks out in green, don't you wish you could get out and spend a few hours a week mowing the lawn around the house, or digging in a garden of your own, or watering your own flowers?
Mr. University Professor
I'd Like to Build You a Home
You are probably prone to wish once in a while that state legislators would wake up to your true merits. But that is neither here nor there. The fact remains that you are renting a house which doesn't suit you at all and that you would probably like to live in one which does.
I have some lots in the University Place Addition—just two blocks south of the campus, away from the noise of the business part of town, close to the car line, connected with city water, gas and sewer, and well-drained. I would like to build you a home—just the kind you want—and make it easy for you to own by letting you pay for it in small monthly installments, amounting to a very little more than you are now expending for rent. Let's talk it over tomorrow.

Closing Theme. Prof. Chas. S. Skilton The Faculty
One of the features of the evening was a song written to the tune of Auld Lang Syne by Miss Harriet Gleissinger, one of the original composers. This song was sung at the dinner and for those who have never heard the history of old North College this gives a vivid description of all the trials and tribulations which the Fine Arts students endure there. This song was written in the design of the School of Fine Arts which is "A New Fine Arts Building."

Sec. of State Board Rather Buy Now Than 50 Years Ago
"I would rather buy Kansas land today at $125 an acre, than to take it as the pioneers did at $1.25 fifty years ago.
"Kansas agriculture is not holding its own as far as the numbers of men working on it."
J. C. Mohler, Secretary of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture, summed up the situation in those words as students of the department of economics.
"The convenience that the farmer of today has at his hand, and the hardships that the pioneer had to face are the reasons why I would take the land at $125 today rather than at $1.25 fifty years ago."
"Machinery is taking the place of men on Kansas farms. The number of farmers in the state has not kept up with the increase in population in the last ten years. Yet we are farming a million more acres of land today,
co-armers in the state has not yet up with the increase in population in the last ten years. Yet we are farming a million more acres of land today.
"The great problem in Kansas agriculture is not the growing of crops but its something wrong with our present methods. The first thing to do is to get good roads. Co-operation may also help. Farmers are gradually coming to it. There are cases in the wheat belt where co-operative elevators have been able to save from five to seven cents a bushel for the farmers, yet made the elevators a profit of eight or ten per cent on the
"Yet Co-operative marketing has worked best when applied to fruit," said Mr. Moldier. "Cameronies might be better than apples, but the fruit crop that now goes to waste. The middleman gets a large part of the final price of an article, as things new stand, but I do not blame him for the failure of the middleman himself, if the system."
Minnie Moody '18 College, has adopted a little brown baby rabbit, just about six inches long. When she and some other women students stepped on a litter of the rabbits at the campus, they heard an awful squel, and upon examination, they found one of the infants was hurt.

Prof. C. G. Dunlap of the department of English said, "I am in favor of the changed plan if every one concludes that we do not have to get up too early. You know we do not have any chickens or calves down at our house to feed early in the morning, so I do not want any chicken there, but that extra hour of sleep if I want it."
Prof. H, P. Cady of the department of chemistry says he is not in favor of turning the clocks up because of the tension which would arise as a result.

So Pi Poses for a Picture
Pi is a wonderful dog, no one doubts that. Pi goes to classes and like many students sleeps peacefully while the professors plod along trying to impress upon their young immature minds the importance of education. Pi is even better known to the students than the persons to whom the Student Day speakers refer. Pi Ups perhaps his popularity depends somewhat upon their ability to advertise. But that is not my story.

And with his head on his paws he closed his eyes while the anxious artists drew his picture which will be added to the annual student's art exhibit to be opened to the University next week.

CHEMISTS TAKE TRIP
Prof. E. H. S. Bailey, W. A. Whitaker, F. W. Bruckwimmer, and C. F. Nelson attended the first meeting of the Kansas City branch of the American Chemical Society at Manhattan Saturday. Experiments were demonstrated and papers read concerning important foods in the nutrition of stock, and the relative values of various paints for use on farm equipment.
Hogs are fed corn only, and their growth or lack of it is noted. Certain other constituents, such as proteins, are then added to the diet and the impurities removed are nourished on corn and bone meal; and the results in their physical appearance make it possible to discover which foods cause strength or fat or other desirable qualities. Manhattan hogs eat a diet of foods for hogs, cattle, and chickens.
K.U. Professors Attend Meeting of American Chemical Society at Manhattan
Durability of paints for use or barns, fences, and other equipment is demonstrated with a large board of paint. It can be applied with a different proportion of oil and pigment and also with various brands of paint. Exposure to sun, snow, and rain is noted and the farmer of Kanada needs to know how to wear the years the best and lasts the longest.
The experimental work done at Manhattan in chemistry is confined almost exclusively to methods of improving farming. The best and the cheapest way to do things about the farm is their ambition.
Success of Girls' Formal This Year Leads to Scheme for More Gatherings
PLAN MORE PARTIES
The Girls' Spring Formal Satur day night was such a success that Miss Elliot is planning three or four such functions for next year. The best one we probably be given just before that, then giving vacation and the others later.
Hakan has exclusive sales rights in
Douglas county and the city of Topeka.
"It is because of the co-operation and help of the girls that this party was successful," Miss Elliott said this morning, "and I want to thank all of them for what they did. We were so proud of the occasion as they did." The variety of costumes made it informal and jolly at the start. The Spring Formal will be an annual affair we hope, and we will put our best efforts on it." Miss Elliott congratulated us equally as she said, "We have some more good stunts we can put on, too."
For years reporters have been trying to discover new ways of putting themselves through school, only to find that some other man a few years ago was also using the system. But to Albert J. Hakan, c'18, from Kansas City credit must be given for finding a new one for the University's publicity agent to use next year in telling the people of Kansas how K. Petersen puts themselves through school.

Hokan is the first University student to become sole local representative for an automobile. He went to Michigan State to drive back a new Scripps-Booth motor car from the salesrooms of the Donald D. Davis Motor Car Co. Hakan had been making week-and-trips to the university's campus, where he followed week's expenses. The manager of the Kansas City Scripps-Booth salesroom became acquainted with him and conceived the idea that he would make a good representative.
Kansas Men Win the First Set —Missouri Wins the Second
START TENNIS MEET
PLAY DOUBLES THIS P. M.
Postponed From Morning Because of Light Rain
The dual tennis match with Missouri started on the McCook Field courts yesterday afternoon with Captain Teachon taking a victory from Fred Williams in straight sets 6-0, 6-1. But Missouri came back strong and found match where Loomis of Missouri defended Alice Cowill 6-2, 6-3.
Only two rounds of singles were played yesterday. The second round is scheduled for this afternoon at 3:30 and will be played at that time unless the judge determines Varsity courts. The doubles were scheduled for this morning but the light rain last night made it necessary to postpone the matches until tomorrow, when they played before the singles this afternoon if the courts are in shape.
In Teacher's match yesterday afternoon the Jayhawker captain had little trouble in taking Mr. Fred Williams of Columbia, Missouri, into camp. Elderly Teacher did not remember how hard he had to before the doubles come off so he started to end the game as soon as possible. It did not take him long either for the first set was a love set. Just to appear a little more human Teacher allowed his man one game on the next set making it more challenging, was enough and Freddie Williams had to be content with a lone game.
Allie Cowgill did not have such good luck with his opponent. Allie played a reserve game and lacked the confidence and experience which Teachers would expect, but it is only the second Varsity match that Cowgill has been in for the singles, and when playing by himself, showed his lack of experience. Loomis played a fine game but was erratic at times, and had to stop for this afternoon for the final round.
In the doubles, as in the singles, Cowgill will be Teacher's other man in this sheet. He has been showing a fine game of tennis lately and with the experience he will get in this sport, he can teach the teacher in the Valley meet in Des Moines this week in such a manner that the two will be able to bring home the big end of the tournament. It is possible that O'Brien will also learn how to be determined until the team leaves寝夜 night for the Iowa capital.
This afternoon's matches will be free.

FINALS CONSUME OIL
Investigators Determine Waste Caused by Approaching Quizzes
STATISTICIANS ALSO BUSY
Calculating Other Uses for the Quantities of Fuel
The vigil of the conscientious student grinding away in his "hole in the wall" burning the "midnight oil" will now occur nightly until the finals are past. Tradition has dictated to the undergraduate, the necessary courses, and of term themes, theses, and final reports on class assignments. Many years have come and gone since the institution of such traditional affair. With the constant pecking of the "Oliver" accompanied by the steady release of words from theuous leaves of paper, does the silence break for the unfortunate one using his meager quota of "kerosene." Panic-striken, nervous, and weak from worry, the unhappy one urges himself on to greater work, mindful of the importance before the St. Peter of the deadly on the millennium day of quixx week.
Time and again have estimates been made as to the enormous amount of oil burned during the bi-yearly penances of the sinner before judgment day. From one end of the student section to the other, blinding rays from the glare of the well-known light affronts one with their boldness. Oread declare that enough oil is consumed to furnish fuel for two Fords carrying five from Lawrence to Columbia and return. Some wiseacres have remarked that the wicks used in sponging the "juice" would furnish padding for double hattabs of the "Thundering Thousand" enmasse. Of globes and chinmasks cracked and smashed, enough glass has been wasted to pave a roadway an inch thick to the path of the office to Dean Tempelin's nature chamber across the hall. As for matches struck in the lighting of the beacon fires, if laid end to end, they would extend from Fraser to Spooner.
Divergent are the views held as to the relative value of the time-old light. Psychologists tell us that the most lasting impressions are the rehearsal of images, the custom age-old and finger-printed as it is. Educators insist that cramming by day and lamplight is a harmful and dangerous practice, detrimental in the last degree to the physical well-being of the individual. Be aware that when cramming, the contrary, the time-honored burning of the "midnight oil" will continue as long as the incubator system of education is promulgated.
NUMBER 158
A LITTLE BIRD DIDN'T TELL THE KANSAN Paper Scooped on Fountain
Paper Scooped on Fountain
The Daily Kansan must admit a scoop. To be beaten by robin red breasts, and jenny wrens is disgrace complete. The new memorial erected by the class of 1903, a cement bird bath, has been up a week, and only today did a Kansan reporter's keen eyes see the structure and go to investigate.
The bath is placed on the plot of ground just east of Fraser under a large pine tree, just far enough under to afford shade on the hot summer days, and far enough out to be in the cool cold. Already there are many kinds of birds rolicking and splashing and plumming their feathers in the cool, refreshing water, and then perching on the edge to bask in the sun. The new nest is built into the sun, in that it is very democratic and squarrels and orioles hobnob together.
This gift of a class, which graduated so long ago is an innovation at K. U., and the class of 1903 is the first to show its loyalty in this manner.
The class of 1914 will hold its annual reunion on June 6 of this year, during the Commencement Week festivities. Lelia Nevins, secretary of the class, will present every member, asking them to be present at the reunion. More than 100 people are expected to attend. The class will gather around the memorial bench which it presented to the Uni-员 and a lunchun will be served at noon.

In the stomachs of thirty-seven birds of eighteen different varieties the food was found to be 100 per cent canker worms, thirty-three contained only five and 16 less than 50 per cent and only five stomachs contained no canker worms.
The birds are proving themselves friends to trees around Lawrence by their extraordinary appetite for these pests. "The English Sparrow is carrying out hours every day and heads the list of our favorite troyers," said Mr. Bunker, "Besides eating the nuts that feed on lettuce, cabbage and roses."
HAD ESTES PARK RALLY
George O. Foster Spoke
Twenty-five Men of the
Summer Conference
Geo. O. Foster spoke to twenty-five men assembled in Myers Hall this morning at 8 o'clock on the importance of Estes Park in the lives of those who go. It was a representative gathering of men, consisting of the leaders in different University activities, such as athletics, drama, education work and even politics. Nineteen of the leading men in the University have thus far signified their intention of going to Estes.
"Let me impress upon each one of you the importance of the Conference just from the standpoint of University leadership and that which will life," said Mr. Leadership in after-life," contact with men like J. R. Mott and Sherwood Eddy, will you get at the park, will tell in your lives long after the men themselves are gone. Number also, the part that K. U. has played here and there inferences. We have a standard to maintain among the universities and colleges of the west. It is the duty of every leader in our University life to attend Estes at least once during its sessions and for that duty there is no time like present, when the ex-governor of our state is willing to aid any man."

SENIORS LOSE DEGREES
Almost Half of Class Can't be Graduated Because of Too Many Threes
DEAN DEFENDS THE RULE
Say It Makes A. B. Mean More to Students
The College Faculty regulation requiring an average of two-thirds ones or two, threatens almost half of the senior class with failure to get degrees. There are about 250 in the senior class, a part of this number lack enough credits to graduate and only one percent satisfactory on their percentage of ones and two at the end of last semester.
The rule regarding threes came into effect last year and will not affect any work done previously. Although passed early last year the last graduating class was not held to it and there has been little consideration given the regulation by this year's rules, it is important in junior and ruraling and any student with more than 1-3 threes will be denied a degree. No consideration of the number of credits or stiffness of the courses is allowed by the rule.
DOUBTFULS CAN SEE REGISTRAR
Students who are doubtful regarding their standing may find their percentage figured up at the Registrar's office. Many of the students below the required standing at the end of last semester were there by a small number up during the present semester. If, however, the seniors under the minimum slow down this semester, the percentage will be even greater than reported at the end of last semester. Dean Olin Templin defined the rule this morning as an attempt to keep students from grading greens from the University. The old system he said allowed almost anyone to go out as a Bachelor of Arts who had the tenacity to keep repeating courses and skim through on three. That some restriction was necessary to graduate students. The Dean and Missouri, Wisconsin and other western universities that had adopted the mark system which is much more elaborate than the one used here. It requires so many marks for graduation as well as a certain number of credits. On marks are given on the quality of grades, threes counting as funks.
MAY REPEAL RULE
The Dean was wholly unaware of the number of students threatened by the present rule but said if it proved too harsh the college faculty having made it could also repeal it. The result would have value if it did not pinch enough to keep the straglers from obtaining degrees, was the opinion of Dean Templin. Several students have already applied for release from the rule.
In regard to a standardization of grades being a prerequisite to such a ruling as the college now has, which demands two-thirds ones and twows, the Dean said that such a system was impossible to work out. At the present time each of them should receive the grades given out by every other professor in his department as a standard for him to comply with. This custom according to the Dean has helped much to get a more uniform system of grading.
52. Proportion of High Grades Required for a Degree. A student in order to be accepted as a candidate for the degree must have received a grade of I or II at least eighty hours. Any student admitted to advanced standing will be accepted as a candidate for the degree only in case such student has received on admission one more step to adoption the proportion of high grades provided in the foregoing regulation.
FACULTY MAY ORDER

Instructions from the executive committee for commencement affairs have been sent to all faculty members to wear caps and gowns appropriate to their degrees in the commencement procession, on June 7.
Sixty members of the faculty have already expressed their willingness to meet this request of the graduating class, and the committee is urging all others to communicate at once with Prof. E. M. Briggs in the Gymnasium trophy room, so that he may take their measurements.

CRITICISM AND COMMON SENSE
What is news? John D's grandson asked him for a nickel and the Kansas City Times placed the story in the middle of the first page.
The University's examination schedule has come in for an unusually hard panning at the hand of the student body this year. It has been charged that the committee which made out the schedule has used no sense, rhyme or reason in its preparation. It is true that nearly all students will have to stay the entire of quiz week. But—
See first the beam in thine own eye
Did you ever stop to think just how big a task the committee has on its hands? Do you imagine that you could make out a better schedule than the one devised?
IRISH PATRIOTISM
"Sunday Warns; 21 Faint,"— Kansas City Star headline. What did Bill have on his breath, anyhow?
The intensity of the convictions on the Irish patriots was shown again Sunday when James Larkin, the Irish labor leader, attacked an Anglo-Irishman who agreed that England was right in executing James Connelly and thirteen other Irish revolutionists. The Irish who died in Dublin a few weeks ago were not members of a radical minority. They were the leaders of a powerful body of citizens. Their action was backed by a strong and organized public opinion in the Emerald Isle. Right or wrong the Irish patriots have shown a devotion to cause, a courage and a spirit of self-sacrifice that may well serve as a lesson to the entire world.
A lack of practical ability has always been the curse of the patriotic party in Ireland. Its every effort has shown a lamentable lack of cool, practical leadership. For that reason England has always suppressed the uprisings easily. The last venture of Sir Roger Casement and his followers was no exception. The rebellion was quickly and effectually crushed. Its leaders were executed.
Collier's Magazine, in an editorial, believes that England has hurt herself in the eyes of the world by the killing, virtually without trial, most of the revolutionists. It compares the execution to that of Miss Cavell by the Germans and suggests that England cannot now point with a finger of scorn to the Teutonic murderers. Neutral public opinion has revolted at this last proceeding, the writer believes.
He may or may not be right in his contention. He is undoubtedly right in believing that the execution shocked the entire world. There has always been something fine in the unselfish patriotism of the Irish. It has been the finer in that its leaders were idealists—scholars who dreamed great dreams but lacked the punch to make them realities. These idealists have had little success in grappling with the stoil, practical Britons.
They have failed in their dream but have succeeded in that they have furnished an example for th eworld.

GO GET IT MAC!
The fifty-fifty break with Missouri still gives Kansas a fighting chance to win the Missouri Valley baseball championship. But the team must win all the remaining games on its schedule.
Should Kansas lose this year it will break a long string of championships. Coach McCarty has made a wonderful record since he came to the University. He has made the Jayhawker feared on diamonds all over the Valley. Kansas will win again this year; too, the coach believes, if the team has an even break in the luck. Here's honing they have it.

The faculty lecture series this year has been particularly good. We will miss many of the speakers next year, particularly Professors Becker and Ogden. Both of these men have gained places in the hearts of their students. It is with regret that the Kansan sees them leave K. U.

OMAR KHAYYAM
Omar Khayyam, the poet-astronomer-tentmaker, of Naishapur, in Persia, is known wherever the English language is spoken, by the man on the street and the student of literature alike. His quattrains have attained their wide circulation largely through his translations of Lord Fitzgerald, of Ireland, which are the best and most poetical of several renditions. Little is known of the life of the genial Persian philosopher, other than that he had a profound mind, hated sham, suffered much and in the end came to know happiness. The threads of the story of his life have been woven into a pretty romantic tale, and this compact made by three students in the garden of their teacher, made much of in this drama, is supposed to have been true.

THAT QUIZ SCHEDULE Editor Daily Kansan:

CAMPUS OPINION
Poor Student.
I want to register my kick on the examination schedule. Why on earth must we remain here until Friday evening before we may take the last examination. Practically the whole school is being held over this year by day after day, unless obviously the majority are able to leave by the middle of the week. Is there any necessity for such conditions?

A DEAD CLASS Editor Daily Kanzan+
WANT ADS.
The senior class, when it started out this fall was going to do great things. It was to have a number of get together meetings. It now had a good president (elected by the machine crowd) and it intended to show up the classes of the past. And it has become more than anything else. Of all dead classes of tongue or pen, the deadest is this class of 1916. Of course it is not the individual members of the class who are to blame. The officers are the ones who are supposed to keep things stirred up. Yes, I will admit it. We did have one good mixer—along the first of the year when we were playing for the New braska football game. And we did work on some neo too.
TOO MANY SOCIETIES Edtor Daily Kansan:
Of course you'll want to go home looking right. Let Schulz fit you.
I'll admit I'm not perfect, so perhaps I have no reason to raise a bow. But what I would like to know, is, what on earth the University of Kansas needs of so many honor institution students, because it has an hon society, which is nothing more or less than a little politics, whereby the "ins" agree to take you in providing you come across with a little political pulling of wires for some man they are boosting for an office. And now comes Ahokus. We already have the White Crowes, the black Crows and the thousand and one supposedly honorary fraternities. Truly K. U. is becoming an honor school.

LANGUAGES NECESSARY
Colleges and Universities Must Teach Students to Speak More Fluently—Grider
A radical change in the methods of teaching languages in American colleges so that students will learn to speak, read and write foreign languages must take place if the United States is to capture much of the trade of South America, according to Prof. R. L. Grider of the department of mining engineering, who returned lately from South America. Professor Grider was engaged in a search for an Andean or new discoveries of precious metals. During his stay in the south he had much opportunity to observe the business methods and progress of the merchants of different nationalities.
"The command of language that the agrerage young German or Swiss has, who is in the employ of commercial houses in South America, is far superior to the average man from United States," said Professor Grider today.
"It is a common thing for the young German in South America to be able to speak seven or eight languages fluently.
GERMAN SYSTEM PRACTICAL "The average graduate of a German university in South America has a much better command of the five to eight tongues that he speaks than has the American with a smattering of German and French. The reason is that up to this time, the aim of language training in American universities has tended toward fitting men to read the works of foreign authors. But this training will not help the man from the United States very much in South America. He must learn to speak other languages in every day life. He must be able to meet a man of almost any language, to listen to it and converse with him fluently in his native tongue, if he expects to get very far in a commercial way in the countries south of us.
MUST LEARN LAWS AND CUSTOMS
"I knew several Germans in La Paz one in particular who spoke seven languages. He spoke good English and in our walks together we always spoke German and the reason was that he wanted to become more familiar with English. In Panama I was walking with a Swiss. We met a man, I addressed him in English, German and Spanish. He knew none of them. The Swedes, too, were but in addition he knew Hungarian, French, Italian, Russian and Portuguese.
MUST LEARN LAWS AND CUSTOM
"The advantage of language training for commercial operations is obvious. It is this kind of competition that we must meet in South America, and the only way to meet it is to get a more practical working knowledge of languages, customs and laws.
"The same thing applies to the laws of South America. It is based on the Spanish language, but it still allows us our own, if we are to out of the courts and out of the hands of unscrupulous lawyers. This is just as true of Mexico as of South America, all Spanish countries, except Brazil, which does not suffer any complication in the necessary training of the representatives of a commercial house in the south.
"In order to learn to use the languages fluently, American students must use them more in everyday conversation with natives of foreign countries. In this way the Germans and Swiss for example, become masters of many tongues while still young men," concluded Prof. Rider.
Albert J. Hakan, '18 College, returned Monday morning from Kansas City in a new automobile, a light Scripps-Booth. He announces that he is going into business as an auto salesman.
An article in the Yale Alumni Weekly hearing on the question of college men in politics shows that of 521 members of the Senate and of the House "approximately 345 come under the category of college men. Of these 345, the University of Michigan sends 26, Harvard University sends 26, Fordham University sends 19, and Yale 16. This leaves 264 college men to be divided among somewhat more than that number of colleges, a fact which permits of wide-spread representation.
Oregon Agricultural College is a state institution, and although it has the name "agricultural college," gives liberal arts and normal courses. Its total enrollment is 4,200 of which 2,600 are men and 1,500 women. There are 160 instructors and over thirty buildings. The armory has the largest floor space of any armory in the United States and can be used for track, baseball, and football practice when the weather is inclement.

PRINCETON FOR WILSON
Straw Ballot Supports President for Re-election
In spite of the fact that John Griek Hibben, president of Princeton opposes the re-election of Woodrow Wilson as President, the students of Princeton, favored Wilson in a straw ballot for President held by the Daily News, and the students of Princeton successfully opposed Wilson in his fight for the democracy of Princeton.
The result of the student ballot was substantially the same as that of the general election in 1912. The Republicans were in the majority but their vote was divided among three men, Roosevelt, Justice Hughes and Eliah Root. Wilson polled almost the entire Democratic vote. William Jennings Bryan had one supporter and Henry Ford got two votes.
MISS WILSON GRADUATES
Gives Piano Recital Assisted by Noted Tenor
The School of Fine Arts gave a series of graduating recitals last night. Miss Allene Wilson, pianist, from May Center, assisted by Mr. Mary Bannister, music teacher, Miss Mary Linn, accompanist gave the program of ten numbers.
Miss Wilson gave an unusually atractive program in which the technique of her playing stood out as a talent. Her talent is demonstrated by Mr. Miller displayed a rich tenor voice of much range and sweetness. His work last evening was a real treat to music lovers. Mr. Miller reiterated that he attended the state contest at Emporia.

Sophomore Majors
"A great many of the sophomores have attended to the task of choosing their major course for the next two years at the University," said Dean Don McGinn. "We have not will be making a great deal of trouble for themselves if they do not do so before the term ends. When school begins in the fall the professors are too busy to confer with the students about their major courses they will receive a serious setback eight at the beginning of the term."
The University requires all sophomores to confer with some faculty member concerning their major course during the last month of the second term. At this time it is possible to give the students much more time and attention than can be given them in the fall when the "big rush" is on.
The fact that the back porch of the Faculty Club can be seen from Tennessee street puts the regular members at a disadvantage. An ordinary passerby never can tell whether those good-looking feet propped in comfortable positions, and those contess forms, wreathed in clouds of balmy tobacco smoke, belong to the faculty or to the waiters.

BUT FEW BUY INVITATIONS
Senior Committee Has Few Left for Distribution
Senior invitations are now selling at war prices! Owing to the rise in the price of leather which is needed for military uniforms, the last one hundred leather invitations which were ordered to supply a possible demand for extra invitations are selling at war prices. The original price was thirty-three cents.
The invitations paid for in advance are not being called for, at the check stand in Fraser and the seniors who waited until 2:30 today to get the invitations they ordered have to call Earle Cress, chairman of the committee, or chairman of the committee does not think that the fact that a number of the seniors are affected by the three grade ruling accounts for the uncalled for invitations. There are about forty leather covered invitations left at forty-five cents. Those graduating from Earle Cress, if any remain after last.
One Engineer ordered forty invitations, another student ordered ten leather ones too late to get his name in the list of graduates, and now recruited him. The fraternities and sororities ordered comparatively few invitations.
DANCING IS RUINING
FOOTBALL AT MICHIGAN
Cress says the present method is a poor way of getting senior invitations. He suggests that an organization such as the council or a faculty committee should be appointed to handle these invitations. "This would do away with the present idea that some students hold, that there is any pie to the job," he says.
"What is the matter with Michigan spirit?" That is the question which is worrying the football coaches as well as the athletic authorities. This question has assumed serious proportions during the last weeks of the spring season, when it was easy for the candidates for next fall's eleven are coming out for practice.
That students often return to studies in which they have been found deficient and major in them, is shown by the records of the Ohio State University. An examination of the records shows that out of twenty students who had received a condition or a failure to complete their college career, eight have returned to that study and made themselves specialists in it.

to the definite knowledge of the athletic authorities and coaches, find time to attend as many as three dances in one week.
With about 6,000 students enrolled in the university, the average turnout for regular practice lately has been a little over nine men, while Princeton, by way of contrast, with only about 1,200 enrolled, had had an almost ten men out regularly and nas had almost three weeks of scrimmage.
They say that if the men will not come out, Michigan is doomed to anarchy. "I'll just wait," he said.
The seniors of the class of 1916 will have their last get-together time out at Woodland Park, Thursday evening at 5:30. This is to be a free-for-all hike. Every loyal senior is expected to be there whether he has a date or not. Dates to the hike are not being encouraged.
Just the thing for that Commencement gift—Books! 300 titles to choose from at Wolf's Book Store.—Adv.
To determine the cause of this shameful exhibition, the coaches and the athletic office are investigating the matter. It is their unanimous opinion that one of the most potent factors in keeping the men away from the field is the present dance craze. Men who are numbered on the squad claim that they have not time for practice, yet some of these same men,

A Mistake in the Policy of the Bethlehem Steel Company
To the People:
The Senate of the United States has passed a bill to spend $11,000,000 of the People's money to build a government armor plant. The measure is now before the House of Representatives.
It is said that manufacturers of armor have "gouged" the country in the past, and that a government plant is necessary to secure armor more cheaply.
The mistake of the Bethlehem Steel Company has been that it has kept quiet.
We have allowed irresponsible assertions to be made for so long without denial, that many people now believe them to be proven facts.
We shall make the mistake of silence no longer.
Henceforth we shall pursue a policy of publicity. Misinformation will not be permitted to go uncorrected.
It is and has been the policy of our Company to ideal with the American Government fairly and squaresly.
We shall henceforth place the details of our relations with the Government before the American People.
The United States has for twenty years obtained the highest grade of armor and has paid a lower price for it than has any other great naval power.
price for it man has any other great naval power.
Figures officially compiled for the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs from the Naval Year Book show that under conditions prevailing just before the European war, the chief naval powers of the world were paying these prices for armor:
England, $503 per ton; France, $460; Germany, $490; Japan, $490; **UNITED STATES**, $425.
A government plant cannot make armor any cheaper than we can do it; and—
We are prepared to manufacture armor at any price which the Government itself shall name as fair. THAT BEING SO, SHOULD $11,000,000 OF THE PEOPLE'S MONEY BE WASTED TO BUILD A GOVERNMENT PLANT?

NINETY ASK TO TEACH
Because of New Law Many K.U. Seniors Apply for School Certificates
More than 90 certificates have been applied for from the class that graduates from the University this year. Because of the state law, which goes into effect September 1, requiring teachers in 4-year high schools to have certificates, showing they have completed a 4-year course with 15 hours of educational development at an accredited college or university. Many teachers over the state are applying for certificates this summer to avoid the statute as those taking out certificates before the law goes into effect may teach three years in a high school with only two years work in an accredited school, providing nine hours of training in the educational department. They can renew this certificate afterwards but must take additional work to make up their deficiencies.
"This means that the incompetent teachers over the state will loose out in time," said Dean F. J. Kelly, of the School of Education, "unless they have a purpose of the law is to keep out incompetent teachers in the future although it will hurt some of the teachers who have been teaching in the past who have not had the work required by the State Board of Enten-
Life certificates will be granted to those teachers, who have taught successfully not less than two years, at the expiration of a *n*-three-year course, providing they have maintained satisfactory professional standing.

THIRD SET OF EVERGREENS
BY GYMNASIUM MAY DI
A third attempt to get evergreens to grow along the sidewalk from Robinson Gymnasium to Marvin Hall, was made this spring but from the appearances about two-thirds of the trees have decided to give up the struggle for existence. About a dozen of them still look green and may grow.
Two years ago an attempt was made to get evergreens to grow along that place, and another attempt was made last spring. Both attempts resulted in failure and a third which it was hoped would prove to be the charm, was made this spring. Arbor-creek areas were planted as it wove thought they were a more hardy variety than other evergreens. However a great many of them are looking brown and bleached, and will probably have to be removed in the end to prevent them from defacing the campus.

Three Dollars Worth--- For Three Dollars
You have been told about the Kansan for next year. You have been told that the students who have the direction of the paper in hand have some new plans for next September. But no promise can be made about the changes.
That Will Depend On the Subscribers
We start in today on a campaign for one thousand subscribers out of the present study body for next year's paper. If we can be assured of that many paid up subscriptions, we can then consider making some of the desirable changes in mind which will, without any doubt, make the Kansan not only one of the leading, but the foremost college daily in the United States.
We Are Perfectly Frank With You
We know and you know that this is your paper. It always has been. It always will be. And you have got to get behind it and push. It is the best advertisement the University has. Consider the fact that more than 500 copies go out five times a week to the high school libraries of the state to be read by more than ten thousand high school students. Consider the fact that the paper is clean, not only in the news and editorial columns, but in the advertising columns as well.
We offer no premiums this year. You get no chance on a piano, no safety razor blades, silver spoons or funny books. But you get your money's worth in Kansan and that is what we think you want. If you want to see the Kansan get daily telegraphic press reports, run more cartoons and timely cuts next year, and be improved in many other ways, be ready for our solicitor.

NOW A CHEM MAGAZINE
"Kansas Chemallurgist" the Latest Periodical Issued at University
A SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION
Articles by Chemical Engineers Provide Meaty Reading
NOTED MEN CONTRIBUTORS
What may be the starting of a new era in the progress of the Chemical Engineers in the department of chemistry will be the appearance of another magazine called the "Kansas Chemlurgist." It is edited by the students in Chemical Engineering under faculty supervision. Its aim is to create a bond of interest among the alumni and the University and between the kymans and the technologist.
One of the most important features of the magazine is on the inside of the front cover entitled; "Our Special Contributors." This is a list of the men who have written for the Kansas Chemallurgist all of whom are recognized by the university as field fields. They are: Dr. Charles H. Herty of the chemical laboratories at the University of North Carolina, who is now serving a second term as president of the American Chemical Society of the United States Bureau of Mines; Prof. F. H. S. Bailey, director of the chemic laboratory at the University of Kansas, a position which he has held for thirty years; L. S. Bushhell, chief chemist for Armour and Industries of Bardwell, chemist for the Missouri Pacific Railway, with headquarters at Kansas City, Mo.; and Elwood Hen dricks, a retired chemical engineer and manufacturer of New York City
The most important contribution is that entitled: "Industrial Chemistry in Kansas." This will be illustrated by a double page map of the state of Kansas, which will show the location of industrial activities located in the state. "The Chemical Engineer, An Industrial Outlook in the Middle West," by L. S. Bushnell, is the next article of importance. "Recent Progress in Metallurgy by the Worksheet" by an art detailing recent advanced work in this branch of science.
Probably the most interesting feature to the alumni will be the section called "The Migration of the Chemicals," in which is given the location of all the chemists and chemical engineers who have graduated from the University of Kansas, where they are and what they are doing.

TOLD BATTLE OF MARNE
Baron Henri de Maulaussene
Spoke at University Club
Last Night
Baron Henri de Maullaussene a adjutant in the French army deliver what was, according to Prof. W. W. Murphy, *the first delivery* delivered in Lawrence this year. The Baron is in this country on leave of absence and is traveling about the country talking in behalf of the country to aid fatherless French children.
De Malaussene has been enlisted in the French Army since 1914 and has taken part in six battles and has been wounded three times.
TOLD OF BATTLE OF MARNE
To give some iden of the magnitude to the methods embodyed in the modern battlefield of the part he played in the battle of Marne in which the French stopped the German advance on Paris in 1914. The line covered over fifty miles and De Malmasse said he was present only at the very end of the war, making possible to witness only a small part of this greatest battle of history.
TOLD FRENCH SENTIMENTS
FREQUENTLY in the course of his speech, he would stand and exclaim with much force that the French were determined to win. That every soldier felt the gravity of losing his home to the German invaders.
The Baron said he could make no guess as to when he thought the war would end but, he prophesied that there would be a great offensive attack made by the Allies in the late summer.
De Malausse carried with him many mementoes of the war, such as a German helmet and the different rifles used in the rifles of the different armies.
In closing the speech the Baron expressed his thanks in behalf of the French Government for the aid and assistance he provided to the fatherless French children. Nineteen have already been adopted. After the speech a voluntary collection was taken and a niece was raised. Another niece has already raised to be used for the fatherless in France.
Last Chance to Get Innoculation at Hospital
FIGHT SUMMER TYPHOID
The University Hospital has barely time to inoculate students against Typhoid before they return home for the summer vacation, and it is especially important that they be inoculated. Statistics show that the majority of Typhoid cases are, contracted during the summer. Drinking water on trains and at summer resorts quite often cause Typhoid infections so much less trouble than the fever and cost the students not a cent. It is the last chance fo- some to get the worth of their two dollar hospital fee. The inoculation is given in three doses from five to seven days aprt, taking from ten to fourteen days for the complete inoculation.
Prof. F, E. Kester, of the department of physics, returned Monday from Cleveland where he went to attend a meeting of the executive committee of Sigma XI. Seven members of the committee were present and had an all day session at the University Club.
SENIORS GIVE TO FUND
Class Money Will Go For Student Loan Fund This
NUMBER 159
Year
MAKES A PRACTICAL GIFT
Insures Use of Every Cent of Memorial In Good Cause
The senior class voted unanimously to give its memorial money to the Student Loan Fund in a class meeting yesterday afternoon at 3:30.
The amount contributed to the Student Loan Fund by the seniors is 290. This year the class collected $158; $27 was collected during their ophomore year and $105, comes from his senior play.
Harold Mack chairman of the memorial committee suggested the Student Loan Fund as the best investment for the present class memorial. Although there were several other ideas suggested to the class officers, Harold Mack recommended various insurance schemes. The splendid work the Student Loan Fund is doing in materially encouraging the best class of students, those who are really desirous of gaining an education, recommended it as the most practical memorial a class could leave. He also recommended that the Loan Fund and the fact that it was originally a memorial fund, before classes began putting up their monuments upon their departure from the University, made this plan seem feasible. Geo. O. Foster, approved this plan very much. It will be the Loan Fund is used in use and there is great need for a larger fund.
By turning the entire amount of their memorial over to this fund all the money will be used for the purpos of the memorial, and will be used, and will grow with the accumulation of interest. It will be where grafters cannot get their commission, and every cent of it will truly serve students in all the years to come.

Seniors Vote "Stuff of Laughter" for Commencement
Play
K. U. TO PAY THE EXPENSES
"The Stuff of Laughter," written by Percy B. Shostac and produce during the week of the May Fete May 13, 15, and 16 will be given as the Commencement play this year This was decided at the meeting of the senior class held in Fraser Hall yesterday afternoon.
Pine Grove North of Chemistry
Building Will be Setting
THREE DISSENTING VOTES
Various members of the faculty, after seeing the play, suggested that "The Stuff of Laughter" be given this year instead of the senior play, "Copperheads," to demonstrate Gumbier, a student in the School of Law. The Faculty Committee in arranging the program for Commencement Week favored the suggestion and presented the matter to the senate at the end of the play; only three voting against it.
The play will be given Monday, June 5, at 8:15 o'clock in the pine grove north of the Chemistry building, known as Marvin Grove. This building is the former one. The natural background lends more finish and the lighting effects will be more spectacular. From former experiences, the electricians have learned that different lighting arrangements can be improved upon, and that they can be installed immediately. The seating facilities will be improved and the street cars can be boarded at a neurer station.
The University is paying all expenses of the production and because of this admission will be eliminated. Tickets will be distributed among the members of the senior class and the students will distribute them as they see fit.
"The Stuff of Laughter" will be repeated without any changes in the cast; the dances will be repeated and Prof. Arthur Carlisle will be asked to speak as before. A number of musicians from Kansas City will play with the orchestra.

PLAYING THE SEMI-FINALS
Pan-hellenic Division Champions Fighting for Finals
The Pan-hellenic semi-finals are being played this afternoon on Hamilton Field west between the Alpha Tauus and Sigma Chis, champions of the first and second divisions. The winners of this game play next week the champions of the third division of the trophy cup offered by Allie Carroll.
On Hamilton east the Pi K. A's are playing the Delta Taus in order to straighten out the third division of the Betas Monday. The winner of this game again plays the Betas Saturday for the third division title, who in turn fights next week for the Pan-helenic championship with the winner of the Alpha Tau-Sigma Chi game.
Miss Haigh Sends Out Call for Little Glass Containers
HOSPITAL WANTS BOTTLES
"Any rars, any bones, any bottles today?" Especially the bottles, and especially those belonging to the University Hospital, are wanted according to Miss Molly Haight, superintendent of the Hospital.
The students are supposed to help in keeping down the expenses of the Hospital by bringing old medicine bottles back for refilling, but it is such a temptation to stop on the way down the hill and say, "Owl dear, I need some more cough syrup, I need some more cough syrup, I need some more cough syrup, down the hill after that bottle. Please, Miss Hight, just this once!" And Miss Height can't refuse such a plea.
The result of this habit is that over
times the bottles have been used
sizes the first.
The Hospital would greatly appreciate it if the students would return all the empty bottles they find, in their rooms, whether they were originally from the University hospital or not, if they are small bottles about three ounces or less they can be used very well by the Hospital, and will help cut down the expenses of that institution.
Fred E. Dennis, I.L. D., writes that he certainly enjoys reading the University Daily Kansan as it recalls past doings at the old school, which coincide in many ways with the doings while he was a student here.

ALUMNI DINNER TO BE
HELD—FIFTY CENTS FEE
Prof. L. N. Flint talked to the seniors at their meeting yesterday in regard to the Alumi Dinner, and urged that all seniors be present. The Alumi have decided to have the dinner as usual at an one o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium and to charge a fee of fifty cents to cover expenses.
Tickets can be obtained from Professor Flint, Geo. O. Foster, at the registrar's office, or from C. A. Randolph.
MANY TO ATTEND S. S.
Registrar Foster Predicts a Record Enrollment This Season
Summer School will be better attended than ever this summer according to George O. Foster. This theory he attributed to the fact that the ten weeks course has been more thoroughly advertised than usual and amount and tone of correspondence received from prospective students.
Prof. F. J. Kelly, Director of the Summer Session, believes that the lengthening of the time to ten weeks will make a very material increase in student performance, who ordinarily waste their summers, may under the present system graduate in three years. Many graduates are also expected to take advantage of the one-third of a regular semester in obtaining their Master's degree.
The purposes of the summer session are to give instructors in colleges an opportunity of further study in their subjects as pursued at the University; to give superintendent supervision in acquaintancing themselves with recent progress in or to study special problems; to give teachers and supervisors an opportunity to become familiar with the latest and best methods in adding to their academic and professional equipment and to enable them to enter the University to meet the entrance requirements.
The first term will continue from June 8 to July 19, second term of four weeks from July 20, to August 15. The fees will be ten dollars for one week, and everybody every course will be offered that is on the last semester schedule.
PROF. OGDEN TO SPEAK
To Deliver Farewell Address at K. U. Tomorrow Afternoon in Fraser Hall
Prof, Robert Ogden, in his lecture in Fraser all tomorrow at 4:30 o'clock will add his "idea of a University", to the many other ideas of great thinkers, particularly to those of Cardinal Newman.
The lecture is of universal and general interest and is a popular subject with students and faculty. Dean Olin Templin has sent notices to all of the faculty members, announcing the subject, name of the speaker and time of the lecture, hoping that there will be a large audience.
This lecture will be Professor Orgden's farewell to the University of Kansas. He has been connected with the work of Dr. Joseph from the University of Missouri. He was professor of Philosophy and Psychology in the University of Tennessee for some time. He resigned from the university in 2013 to accept a place at Cornell University.
Professor Ogden favors the Thursday afternoon College faculty lectures and thinks they can be made popular at K. U. Several members of the faculty are expressed their willingness to make the new movement a success.
Boyd I, Means, M.E,15, writes that he is resident engineer under Hendri, Kent and Lowy, Co. Kan., HarperCollins and Lee's improvements in Lee's Summits, Mo. These improvements will amount to about $40,000. Mrs. Means, A. B. 25 him bim there and they still enjoy the University Daily Kansan very much.

NO GRADING STANDARD
Experiment Showed Different Instructors Marking Same Paper 1 and 3
BEARS ON SENIOR RULE
Diplomas Depend on Uncertain Judgments of Profs.
MAKES RULE UNPAIR
Two students, who will not allow their names to be used, made an experiment this week to test the relative standards held by instructors in grading papers. Each handed in copies of the tests and one gave a grade of 3 on the paper while the second graded it 1.
HAKES RULE AWARD
The participants excelled and were in fullfillment of the same assignment which had been given by different teachers. The experiment was performed deliberately to test out the standardization in grading following an argument over the meaning of the question, withholds a degree to students who have more than forty hours of 3's.
"This proves that the rule is arbitrary and unfair to the students," said one of the men. "When such a diverse grading is given on identical tests, the question can justly be enforced. It attempts to measure something which is not susceptible to measurement."
"STANDARDIZE GRADES FIRST"
"Obviously when the standards of instructors are so lacking in uniformity to as permit of such fluctuations in grading as in the experiment which roommate and I have just perform instructions to obtain hold degrees from those receiving forty hours of 3's is too arbitrary to be just or even to approximate the conditions.
"It ites to me to that the cart is before the horse. If the educational theories of our faculty demand such an emphasis, I think of 3's rule. I think it is up to them to first standardize their grading so that the rule will treat all alike and not怀兰 hang the hope of a degree on students who do not happen to be placed under."
FOSTER LIKES AWAKENING
George O. Foster this morning expressed frustration. Last last of the class has been wakenen up. He said that the report issued yesterday was simply a "safety first" measure and that a majority of the students threatened by the rule could pull through all right this semester with a little effort. Few are hopelessly swamped with threes and most of the class is expected to get across the Rubicon.
MANY SENTIONS WHIRLED
Long before we began to peer through the window of the Registrar's office early this morning. Through most of the day worried, anxious and feverish persons inquired at regular intervals regarding their quote of threes. Until a late hour some were bothered by phone calls from those who were too nervous to wait until morning.
SENIOR CLASS HOLD MIXER
"If sleeping, wake; if feasting, rise before I tern away."
First Get-together to be Held at Woodland Tomorrow
The senior class will have a bike and picnic at Woodland park Thursday for $10. The junior class only mixer to be held by the class of '16 this year. It is also the last opportunity that the entire class will receive from or an informal mixer before it leaves.
Some of the members of the class have been complaining of the lack of mixers and this is to be an entertainment which will please the most interested. The crowd is set on the Museum steps at 5:30 Thursday evening.
Two Take Exams
There are only two men taking the accounts examinations which began Tuesday, lasting until Thursday. They are then given the degree by the state through the University, are taken to obtain a Certified Public Accountant. Profs. H. A. Mills, A. C. Hodge and Registrar George O. Foster are the University men on the board and the university gives them a board to give the names of those taking the examinations.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news by standing up. They also play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be challenging; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to sensitize the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 1916.
GRADES AND DEGREES
Will one-half the present senior class fail to receive degrees at Commencement time? Unless the faculty changes its mind and repeals the ruling which went into effect this year requiring that every student have at least two-thirds ones and twos the number of degrees passed out will be small and summer school will have the greatest enrollment ever.
The situation is an embarrassing one. Dean Templin says that the ruling is an iron-clad one, that it was passed to give the University a better standing and an A. B. degree more value but—that the faculty having passed the rule can repeal it. And that is what the faculty may have to do.
The rule was passed last year and was to go into effect for the first time this year. It was not to be retaoactive. However under the present grading system it is doubtful whether it will ever prove satisfactory or not. The Kansas is heartily in sympathy with any plan which will give the University a better scholastic standing. It believes that a degree from the University of Kansas should mean as much as a degree from any other school in the United States—that is that the student should have to do as much work to get his degree here as any place here.
However the grade system offers some peculiar difficulties. Grades are never an exact index to work done nor to results obtained. The same amount of work and the same results may draw a one for one student and a two for another. There are so many constituent elements in the making out of grades that no arbitrary mark can possibly be correct. The chances are that the class will graduates almost intact. The faculty will undoubtedly recognize the justice of their claims for degrees.
The Kansan cub has discovered that "Randolph Calls" *168*. It must take some table to accommodate the game.
ARE YOU?
Say Mr. Junior, are you going to beat it for home as soon as your last examination is over, or are you going to stay in Lawrence for the commencement exercises? Of course the freshmen and the sophomores are going home in a hurry. We all are anxious to have the grind over with and get away from the University for a vacation—but listen Mr. Junior: You will be a senior next year and will be staying for the commencement. If you stay this year you will be "on to the ropes" in a way; you will know more the importance of commencement; you will feel more the impressiveness of it. If you stay this year you will no doubt will find there are many things about the exercises and the accompanying entertainment which you can better when you graduate. You are the future senior and it will be up to you to make the next commencement a still
better one. If you don't feel its your duty to stay this year—just stay for the fun of it—you'll profit by it later.
The department of English may be the most popular in the University as a story in the Kansan informs us, but the correct speaking of our mother tongue seems to be still far away.
THE STUDENT AND HIS STUDIES
Why do college students select mixed courses? Is it because they want something easy, because they have intellectual curiosity, because they expect to carry away a hodge-podge of knowledge like a boy would carry home beans and corn and peas in one sack; or, do they seek culture and a philosophy of life?
W. E. Hocking in an address before the Harvard Tenachers' Association recently said that a great many college students do not know what they want, and that "they are too much annoyed by the instinct of curiosity," he says. "They take this and they take that in the dim hope that it will lead them to something they want, and they find themselves having more or less lost track of the rather vague and vaporous but alluring notion which they had when they began their college work."
At K. U. the group system has done much to assist the student in the selection of his courses and, properly worked out, the advisory system would do much more. The average under-classman, especially during the first two years of his college career, is not capable of selecting his own course. He goes up to enrollment with a vague idea of what he wants to take and, if it comes at the right hours he takes it. Otherwise he takes what comes at the hours he has decided upon for class work.
It would be a blessing indeed if the advisory system could be worked out so that a proper amount of time could be given to every student. There is a time when even college people appreciate advice.
PROTECT THE SPARROW
The much maligned English sparrow has at last come to his own. Yesterday the sparrow was a pest. Today he is a savlor. Yesterday small boys were taught that it is right and necessary to kill the sparrows. Today they are told that the little brown bird is the family's best friend and must be protected.
It all came about because of the tree worms those slimy, canker, crawlers which have been causing no end of trouble for Lawrence home owners during the last few weeks. The curator of Dyche Museum has discovered that the sparrows have no union and that they are working from sunrise to sunset eating worms.
So protect the sparrow. Forgive him when he lets his mate nest in your drain pipes. Overlook his lice and his squalling young. For the marrow is saving the trees.
FOR LAWS ONLY
From the Student Journal, the University publication, Nov. 17, 1892:
"The attendance of the Law school is increasing. At the present time there are eight students. The large majority of students are Kansans. Although citizens of neighboring states bring up school pride in the promotion of the school by attaching it. This out of Kansas appreciation recommends the school highly . . .
The system of study used here is known as the Dwight system."

you can."
"So I was, Michael," rejoined the priest; "but was I anywhere telling
me?"

"My inimy, is it, father?" responded Michael. "And it was your riverine's silf that was tellin us in the last last Sunday to love our innies!"

The following poem is by Strick land Gillian, the poet of the common people, who addressed the students of the University during newspaper week. Gillian says that the one thing he has striven for is "commonness," or "universality," that is, he has tried to make verse that will appeal to all classes of people. Those poems are examples of his latest book "Including You and Me," are a good example of his work.

The low-brow takes a look and grunts:

He keeps his promise and invites

SUMMER SCHOOL
The speech made by the college representative was an insult to our Advisor of Women, to other schools of our University and to the true women of Kansas. It was a sad disappointment to us, not that she is not an officer in the military, but an arrogant manner with which she conducted herself upon the platform, and the petty criticisms she felt obliged to make of certain persons. Some of the people who were criticized deserved the criticism, but there is a reasonable limit to remarks made from the students beyond those of common citizens, though modified, are discounted by the petitions if the speaker.
CAMPUS OPINION
The women of the University present very much the thought that her ideas and tendencies are representative of the thousand girls in attendance on the Hill. Very few of the women sanction the methods employed

VIVA LAMAR
To the Daily Kansan:
We believe that even our enemies, if they are sincere in their stand, should be treated with at least some consideration. We wish to apologize to Mrs. Brown, Mr. Lamar and the University at large for the conduct of our representative and wish to assure you that if we have another representative, we will be on the platform on Sunday Day and we think we should have every other year at least, we will be more careful of the representative we send.
by the representative in getting the honor she boasts of. We hesitate to believe that a woman should be so aggressive politically especially when her efforts are solely for her own personal aggrandizement. Her criticism of Mr. Lamar while he sat on the desk was too rudeness. The statements made by the speaker as to his reason for refusing to run for Student Day speaker are absolutely false. The statement that he did make to his friends when they asked him to run for speaker was this: he would rather go to the law school than the law school fairly it would be necessary to make a criticism of the means employed by the College representative in electing herself to her place on the program and since she was a woman he would not criticize her. Whether the College representative misquoted Mr. Lamar, we are unable to say but in either case she showed the poorest of judgment.
TO MR. JACK
A College Woman
It is well that Jack ___ did not sign his surname as a very fitting one can be substituted for the man who could stoop to write such trifiling personal insinuations in attempting to answer any girl's article.
It seems almost incalculable that a man who has reached the University should be so devoid, of respect for women, that he would not time should want to publish the fact.
As Mr. Jack — states; that girl may be "unusophilic," but she must at least have received a common school education before coming to college. But if we find no such sentences as, —"Getting off one of the best examples of pussy footing argument that has ever dared to creep into print through the mean — an honest K. U. woman." "Concerning this article from its four corners."
First in his personalities, he makes a weak attempt to speak slightly of the girl's mother. Now we know how much he taught him more respect for woman.
Let us,hope that he is in no way representative.
And were it on pain of death, we could never translate the following—"To be a gentleman ought to be sufficient reason for any girl not wanting a boy to smoke in her presence is it not?"-Perhaps the kind and gentlymanly author, (surely he is the only original author), will elucidate.
And also that Pumpkin Center colloquialism which the long-eared gentleman uses quite freely, “pusy-ness,” a term that mean in respectable English?
And a small fragment of another sentence, "And then granting if the boy likes the smoke also the limit of it," or a sufficient criterion for deceyness.
And another—"Yellow fingers in
Ukrainian womynhoo is perfectly
perfect."
If this sophisticated gentleman has ever been exposed to Rhetoric and has, through some mischance received credit therein, we would suggest that it be taken away from him. He might hurt himself with it some day. And moreover, that which one makes no use of is unnecessary and superfluous.

OREAD A LABORATORY FEW PROFESSORS TO LOAF MAY ADVANCE TIME
Training School Fits Seniors to Hold Positions in High Schools Over State
TO HAVE NEW INSTRUCTOR
W. L. Eikenberry Will be Supervisor in Sciences
Oread Training School is a laboratory maintained by the School of Education to prepare teachers for instruction in secondary institutions. It has received the award of the state of '16 have received the training which has fitted them for positions in the high schools of the state. This is the fifth year the Oread Training School has existed and the first year that it has had a ring of its own.
A MODEL BUILDING
The temporary frame building on the northeast corner of the University Campus was erected last summer and is a model building in every way. It has seven class rooms, a library and an office. The building consists of five classrooms standing on the floors of all of the rooms except those in the basement which are suspended from the ceiling. The lighting is secured for the most part by windows on only one side of each room floor. The classroom is situated in every part of the room. The third floor of the building is devoted to the science departments, the second floor to language and mathematics, and the basement to history. The library also acts as a study hall and assembly room. The teachers alternate in taking charge of the library during school hours.
The permanent teaching force of Oread High consists of H. W. Nutt, assistant professor of education and principle of the Training School, Miss Lita Battey, supervisor of English, University professors acting as supervisors of the various departments, and students in these courses. The student teacher receive two hours' credit for each period of nine weeks with a maximum credit of four hours. This year because of the large supply of applicants few seniors have been allowed more than one period of nine weeks. The department of English alone has twenty-four different teachers this

OFFERS ALL SUBJECTS
TO HAVE NEW INSTRUCTOR
A new man will be added to the teacher position. L. Erikenberry, recently elected to the position of assistant professor in the School of Education will act as supervisor of biology and sciences and book author in the School of Education. Dean F. J. Kelley of the School of Education, said today that more reference books, and books for general reading will be available next year. He is also planned to purchase more laboratory material
The Oread Training School offers all the subjects taught in the large modern high school. The subjects taught are: English, four years; Latin, four years; Greek, four years; history, or three years; history, four years, including ancient, modern, American, and civics; botany, zoology, physiology, chemistry, physique, physiography and agricultural, each one year; mathematics, three years; mathematics and mechanical drawing, each two years. Music, one year; commercial geography, economics, and social science, each one half year.
OUT-DEBATED LAWRENCE HIGH
The school has a form of student government. The Student Council consists of a chairman and one representative from each class. This council acts as a committee in charge of any rule or regulation for final vote. The council acts upon all matters of discipline only with the final consent of the principal. The officers for this year are: president, William Kirby; secretary, Mary Frances Davis; and treasurer, Abbie Lillis.
OUT-DEBATED LAWRENCE HIGH
The activities of the school are rapid and debating team did well this year. They defeated Lawrence High School after they had won from Kannas City, whose team had previously won from Lawrence High school has a baseball team this spring and who had won a basketball five.
A straw ballot will be taken by the Princetonian this spring for students to show their adherence to the president candidates for president of the university. A ballot in the fall will be taken in the fall to determine the possible change in sentiment.
Beginning next semester, the Missouri School of Mines will discontinue final examinations. Unless the individual professor gives a final of some sort the students will escape from the finals entirely.
E. C. Wilson, "16 Yale, chairman of the Membership Committee of the University," will be the Y. M. C. A. secretary at the University of Illinois next year.
Some Want Vacation for Recreation and Research Work
Not all professors spend their summers in teaching summer school or doing graduate work. Some of them are intending to devote these summer months to pure recreation. Others are trying to wiggle out of teaching summer school in order to enjoy the vacation as they please.
"I'm going to 'loaf' all this summer for the first time in five years" said Professor Kester. "Except for a little research work I will spend my whole life there areLawrence may take a trip the latter part of the summer."
"I expect to attend the Republican Convention in Chicago beginning the 17 'of June," said Prof. B. F. Moore, "if I can wiggle out of teachingum." He would think I can. From Chicago I expect to go to Washington, D. C., and do some work in the Library of Congress. Then about the first of August I will go up to the coast of Maine for a conference returning to Lawrence in the fall."
Professor Twenhofel will do research work in the oil fields and conduct the State Geological Survey of which he is director. Later in the summer he will move to Wisconsin where he has accepted a position as professor of geology in the University of Wisconsin.
Professor Dockery will teach psychology in the summer school of the Kirkland School.
Prof. F. H. Sibley of the School of Engineering will move with his family to Lind Mass, where he will work during the summer.
USE OF ENGLISH WIDENS
Tendencies Indicate That French May be Displaced as Court Language
The English language may in the future come to be the accepted diplomatic language in place of the prescriptive English, which is the universal language for international conferences. At a recent conference in Paris the English and not the French language was used by the representatives of the various countries.
Ever since the dawn of modern history the French language has been the universal language for international meetings. This practice grew up because at the time France was the leading nation of the world and her language was more generally uncommon than was any other. It was a matter therefore of general utility that it should be adopted.
The incident of English being spoken at the recent conference is considered by many to be significant of a general importance for English for French in the international conferences of the future. The reasons for the apparent change are merely historic evolution. The English language today is spoken more widely than any other language, and has been extended by English speaking nations to all parts of the globe. Prof. B. F. Moore of the history department who has spent some time in the Orient says that practically the only language used in Europe is Chinese. European countries have in the last few years been placing more stress upon the teaching of English in schools, not that the English language is really any better fundamentally than any other, but because of its convenience for all to learn something of the language which is so much used.
Another evidence of this tendency is the fact that the Russo-Japanese treaty drawn up at Portsmouth, where the English were stationed, was perhaps one of the first important incidents where non-speaking countries used the English in place of the French for international purposes. It was used merely as a matter of protection when you who understand the working of history it would not be surprising to find in the future that English would become generally accepted.
Things on Adulteration of Food.
E. Wren, a professor of chemistry, gave an illustrated lecture on adulterated foods before the class in food preparation in the department of home economics, Tuesday morning.

The election of new men to the A. H. O. K. U., which was scheduled for yesterday, was postponed until Tuesday, May 29. At this time both classes and the now will be present and plans for the future will be discussed.

Faculty Will Decide Soon About Turning Clocks Up One Hour
MERCHANTS FAVOR PLAN
some Professors Like Scheme Others Say, Only a Fad
Because the schedule for classes of the summer session must be printed next week, the faculty of the summer school will probably decide within a few days as to whether the University wants to hold an hour during the summer months as proposed by the Merchant's Association.
DEAN KELLY FAVORS IDEA
"I favor the idea," said Dean Kelly when interviewed by a reporter this morning, "but I am not in favor of using the means of turning the clock ahead because of it. That is which university on previous summers, accomplished the same result by simply starting classes an hour earlier than during the winter season. Therefore, I think the merchants would be just as successful and it is a much more simple device to open up business an hour earlier than it is to be used two days a week. The time of their services but it is not necessary for church goers to turn their clocks an hour in order to get to church on time.
CHANCELLOR APPROVES IT
Chancellor Strong, when asked for his opinion said, "I am in favor of the plan of turning the clocks up an hour. In the dawn town district, business people work on their o'clock although it is daylight at five. By turning the clocks up an hour we would gain two fine hours of day light! And under the present plan we miss."
"GOOD TO RISE EARLY!"—ENGEL Prof. E. F. Engel of the department of German favors the change. He says "An early start will do a whole lot towards making the day's work easier." The answer will be an aid to personal discipline and help to strengthen character. Often the early hour is not utilized, especially by the student, where as if he had the extra sixty minutes at the other end of the day, he would use it as an hour of recreation and be really benefited. Of course, most German students "one could get up an hour earlier by his watch than is his custom but such a few have the tenacity of will to start doing so unless they have some such aid, as turning the clock up would give them. If this scheme will help us any I am for it."
ROOM LISTS FOR NEXT YEAR are being prepared which will be classified so far as possible according to convenience, sanitation, service and students' ability to pay. When completed the lists may be consulted at the registrar's office, the offices of the Advisor of Women, the Y. M. C. A. and Y: W. C. A. secretaries and at the University Hospital.
"Would Cause Confusion?"--GREEN Dean Green says the idea is all right but because of the confusion which would result, he favors changing the schedule instead. Prof. R. D. O'Leary of the department of English is opposed to the plan. "It is only a fad," professor of English, said. "Confusion where one locality uses standard time and another sun time as would be the case with the railroads and the town if the proposed plan is adopted."
Senior Invitations may be secured by those who ordered them, at the Fraser check stand on Thursday, Friday, Monday and Tuesday mornings.
Mrs. Eustace Brown requests that all students who participated in the Scotch Dance at the Halloween Party and who are still owing to the gingham for their costumes, please call at once on her office and pay the small amount. The greater part of this bill is still unpaid, and it is unfair to expect the merchants to carry the account any longer.

Kansas is to have a new state song, and it is to be written by one of her own loyal residents. To the end that every one with talent will try his hand at composing a song, he will offer a small prize for the best song, and honorable mention for the two next best. A resolution passed at the last meeting of the club in January 1967 called for following requirements for the song: "This song to embrace the spirit, principles and standards of our state, and while possessed of literary merit, it shall not be too elaborate in thought but should be easily learned and sung by all."

PROFESSOR PATRICK
Older Faculty Members Remember Him as a Warm Friend of the University
Although few of this generation of University people know of Professor George Edward Patrick, all have heard of the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis memorial. Professor Patrick was the founder and sole supporter of this memorial which takes the form of an essay competition open to all the students of the University. Professor Dr. C. March on 22 April is Washington DC on March 22 although the news of his death has not become generally known, due probably to the fact that he is known to so few of the University people.
Professor Patrick was in charge of the physics, chemistry and mineralogy departments of the University from 1875 to 1883. It was his tireless effort to teach these students on their feet and lay the foundation of these schools at present. After leaving Lawrence he held positions with schools of several other states. In 1894 he was called to Washington to take charge of the Dairy Department. In the department of Agriculture He held this place until his death.
NEVER GREEN EVERGREEN
He was always loyal to K. U. and has kept in touch with his friends in the faculty and every year he visited Lawrence where his wife is buried. He was always a gentle and peaceful man and it was his deep abhorsenge for war that probably determined his choice for the general theme of the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis memorial essay.
Trees Seem to Resent Inconsiderate Treatment
"What's the matter with the evergreens or is it what's the matter with the campus soil?" This is the question students ask when they see the beautiful evergreenes which were planted along the sidewalk from Jackson Gymnasium. Marvin Hill grade school, and bleached. "The evergreens were not packed with sufficient dirt," says W. C. Stevens, of the department of botany, "to enable them to grow in any soil. They should have plenty of soil packed around the roots, and then they could be watered." However, he says, "they might have thrived all right, the way they were sent, if they had not been delayed in arriving in Lawrence." They were sent to another place, and it is not known how long they lay around on the grass. This climate is not exactly fitted to their growth, but this is not the reason that they did not grow.
The attempt to get these evergreens to grow will not be given up but next time it is tried, they will have to be assured of their proper packing and speedy delivery. This is the third attempt that has been made.

NEW RECORDS A FAD
Better Figures Set in Five Events This Season at K. U.
MORE SURPRISES COMING
Markley Says K. U. Athletes Will Break Own Time
Record-breaking has been a fact among the members of Coach Hamilton's track team this year. Five of the marks set by K. U. Jeeves in past years are records have in part made back as far as John Haven have fallen this season.
Last spring when Fred Rodkey outsprinted the Missourians and set the quarter mile mark at 50 3-5, he chipped 2-5 of a second from the time made by McCoy in 1906. This record was caused by the trip to Columbia, a couple of weeks ago, Dorman O'Lery covered the distance in 50 1-5, thus clipping off 2-5 of a second from Rodkey's time. Then, to make sure there was no mistake, he equaled this mark in the contest with the April 4 victory, so it is expected of him during the next two years.
BODKEY BREAKS OWN RECORD
Last year Rodkey set the half-mile record at 2:00 2:15, but was not content to leave it at this figure so he clipped off the distance in 1:58 4:5, thus breaking the record again this spring. Along with that, he brought the relay mark down from 3:28 to 3:24 1-5 in the meet with the K. S. A. C.
in 1912 Tod Woodbury vaulted 11 feet 6 1-2 inches and until this season no Kansan has been able to better the mark. In the annual outdoor meet with Missouri Pattin tied with Billy Powell, the Missouri valuator at 11 feet 8 1-2 inches and thus another University record was hung up. Pattinson has done 12 feet in practice several times and there is little doubt but that he will break his own record before the season is over.
Dick Treweke defeated Radford Pitlism in the high jump with a leap of 6 feet 1 inch during the indoor meet with Missouri at Convention Hall last winter, and thus raised the record of 6 feet 5-8 inch, made by Bill Frenzel, behind him on April 29 Treweke cleared the bar at 6 feet 1-2 inches but as he did not score first place the record does not stand as official.
Trainer Markley is greatly interested in the work the men have been doing this season, and says that more records will fall and new ones be made before the men that now hold them have left school. O'Leary, it is the trimmer's opinion, will be the quarter next season, provided of course, that he has no hard luck and keeps in good condition.
"Rodkey should knock two full seconds off his half mile record next spring, when his foot has fully recovered and he has had a good rest," said Doc. Markley last night, as he was working to get his men in the best of condition for the Missouri valley meet next Saturday.
TWO MORE MEETS COMING
"Pattinson will put his mark up a few inches more yet this year, if I do not miss my guess," the trainer continued, "and there are other marks that may be bettered within the next two weeks."
TWO MORE MEETS COMING Markley is yet a bit doubtful about Treweke's injured leg, but feels sure that the jumper will be able to better his own leap by two or three inches as soon as he gets in good condition.
Coach Hamilton expects some great things of his athletes in the two meets yet to be competed in the Missouri Conference, Columbia, Mo. on May 27, and the Western Conference meet at Chicago on June 3.
PRINCETON'S INSURANCE
Senior Class Memorial Fund Is Used to Pay Policies
The senior class of the University has received several requests from insurance companies for them to consider the memorial insurance plan that has recently been adopted at Delaware University.
a Princeton University has new policies in regard to the senior memorial
Their senior memorial is to be an endowment life insurance policy in favor of the University. Two hundred and fifty percent of their class have taken out policies of either $100, $200 or $400 make an average policy of $175. The policies taken out amount to a total of $43,500, which will be availed whatever purpose the University uses it at the end of twenty-five years.

NO TAPE FOR MARKLEY
Frainer Doesn't Like to Use Adhesive Preparation
"I never use adhesive tape if I can keep from it. The zinc oxide preparation is injurious to the skin and beades, pressure of any kind, whenrought to bear on an injury, only keeps the blood from flowing freely, and thus does not allow the injured art to heal as quickly as it other-ways. This is a demonstration of Trainer Markley, the man who is keeping Coach Hamilton's track men condition for the big conference this year.
Doc. Markley is a strong believer in sweating and "baking" as cures for sprains and "charkey horses," and he has brought with him a heating cabinet that seems to be getting the response she calls "chimney." A great faith in massage treatment, in the administration of which he is proficient.
"Always warm up good before you work out," is his advice to the track men, for he claims that many good men have been kept out of competition for an entire season because of injuries received while they were at home. The muscles before them properly warming up and while their muscles were yet stiff and cold, and unable to stand the sudden strain put upon them.
"The stomach is the main part of the athlete," says Mr. Markley, "and it should be kept in the best possible condition. Many athletes eat too much and many more eat too rapidly. Both are bad for the stomach and should be guarded against. While a sensitive athlete they are also true for everybody. If people in general would be more careful of what they eat and how they eat it there would be much less sickness.
"The track men are rounding into shape nicely for the big meets and I feel sure that most of them will better their former marks when they meet strenuous competition" said the trainer last night. "The injury is well covered by next week and should make a good show in the Western Conference meet at Chicago on June 3 this year."
DIET. CLOTHES, CALORIES'
New Home Economics Courses Offered Next Term
Three new courses, "Public Aspects of the Household," "Food and Nutrition," and "Clothing Design" will be offered at Penn State's home economics next fall.
The first course mentioned lays special emphasis on state and federal laws which are most directly related to the welfare of the students, the more important problems dealing with the welfare of the household before the students who feel that they do not care to specialize in home management will wish the benefit of such a course.
A general survey of the principles of diet, food habits, dietary standards and the relation of food to health is made by the class in Food and Nutrition. This course presents the more elementary problems connected with food and digestion, and teaches the student the various food values.
The course in Clothing Design takes up color and design, and includes a study of the various textiles. It teaches in a scientific way the principles back of home-dressmaking and home-buying, and enables the student to discriminate between good and poor qualities.
"Our purpose is to make this a department of service and we are arranging these courses to accommodate the students who want the work and have not the time to complete all the courses offered," explained Miss Elizabeth Sprague, head of the department.
Three hours' credit is given in each of the courses. There is no laboratory work; the time is spent in lectures and recitations.

TEAM GOES TO AMES
Must Win Both Games to Keep in Pennant Race With Missouri
AGGIES HERE NEXT WEEK
Farmers Have Made Poor Showing This Year
The baseball situation in the Missouri Valley has been narrowed down to a fine point. At the present time Kansas must win every game remaining on her schedule to keep Missouri from winning the title. Even then the title would be divided between the two champions, the champion could be picked this year.
When the Tigers left Lawrence last week after dividing the McCook Field series the title was split between the two teams. Each team had to win all three games, but the Tigers have Since that time Missouri has done this. Two games with the Kannas Aggies in Columbia Monday and Tuesday resulted in shut-out victories for the Tigers to Kansas to produce the same results in the four remaining games.
TRAIN GOES TO AMES TONIGHT
The Jayhawkers will leave tonight for Des Moines where they start the final round. There are games with Ames for Thursday and Friday. These two conference games will have to be won by McCarty's men or the title is gone. On the return trip a game with the Highland Park College in Des Moines will be played Saturday afternoon.
TEAM GOES TO AMES TONIGHT
Next week the Kansas Aggies will come for the final games of the season. The Aggies do not have much of a ball team this year and if McCarthy is healthy they may look for a clean road. The Manhattan group dropped two in Columbia this week without even getting a single run. Giltner pitched the Tigers to their first victory 3 to 0 while Brewer's star pitcher was saved for the second game which he won 2-1. Brewer's team has six Arkansas Aggies have two more games and K. U. has five more games four of which are conference battles.

series of three games between Kansas and Missouri will be scheduled this spring to settle the disputed title. Coaches McCarty and Brewer talked of such a series while together in Lawrence last week and both are involved in the arrangements were made and the chances are slight for playing the series. But if Kansas wins the remaining games Manager Hamilton and Coach McCarty will do every one can get to a play-off series arranged.
PITCHERS ARE GOING GOOD

Porter is slated to be in second place. Moines Saturday afternoon unless one of the star pitchers cares to repeat.
McCarty will take a line-up of twelve or thirteen on a tonight's trip. He has not announced a line-up yet and does not intend to until this afternoon but the same squad which took the Missouri trip will doubtless get to ride the Pullmans tonight. The team will return to Lawrence Sunday morning.

Oil Booms Provide Good Summer Jobs for Twenty Students
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 25, 1916.
NUMBER 160
DEMAND CAN'T BE MET
Prof. Haworth Says Only Knowl edge of Subject is Required
Oil booms which are springing up all over Kansas are providing good positions for University students who have some technical knowledge of geology. Twenty students have obtained undergraduate work making geological surveys for travel to salaries sampling from $65 to $150 a month and expenses.
"Anyone with knowledge of geology can get jobs," said Professor Haworth. "The demand is greater than we can fill."
Reports received by Erasmus Haworth, professor of geology at the University of Kansas show that the volcanic eruption in the state during the present year, has reached as far northwest as Ottawa and Cloud counties where geologists have been called to investigate the possibility to the possibility of striking oil.
*SIX MILLION ACREES LEASE*
At six million acres, haworth estimates six million acres of Kansas land are under lease of oil promoters and a large proportion of this is far to the outside of what a year ago was considered the oil belt of Kansas. In fact, oil and gas promoters are work force in county in the eastern half of the state.
All the big companies operating in the Oklahoma-Southern Kansas field, are preparing to extend their activities to the north, even on into Nebraska, Professor Haworth says. These companies include those of the new Sinclair Oil combine, the Boxana Prairie, Prairie Mac Mahnman and the Oklahoma companies. Blocks of land are being leased rapidly, although the representatives of these companies try to work as quietly as possible.
SCALPERS GET BUSY
Numerous surveys are being conducted to determine the geology of the country, for this has a direct relationship to the sandstone in which oil is found.
Little active work has opened up in the untried Kansas fields as yet, Mr. Haworth says. A well is being drilled in the north part of Chase county now, and wells are being drilled in the north part of Butler county, but the communications are more preparing for the opening of a new field.
GIVE OPEN AIR CONCERT
If geological conditions are to be taken as a criterion, there is little doubt that there is oil under parts of Kansas. The rapid advance in prices of oil products has caused a demand for an increased supply, explains why hundreds of Kansas farmers are being encouraged to want to secure oil and gas rights.
The activity of the different companies, also is said to have brought into evidence so called "sealers" who try to find where companies are securing blocks on big blocks of land and then compete for leases with the hope of securing bonus money for giving up their rights.
McCanles` Proteges Will Toot Their Horns Tomorrow
The University band, under Director J. C. McCanles, will give a short concert from 7:30 to 8:30 tomorrow evening on the steps of Dyce Musu
So those individuals who wish to celebrate the coming of quiz week with a date may spend a pleasant hour in the cool dusk listening to the sweet refrains of "Miserec," "Woman So Changcable," and others, or whatever Macles may decide to play. No program is given out, but books are available in classical or heavy, so that those who do not like to have their musical taste uplifted may not fear to come. Still, it will not be altogether a low-brow affair.
In previous years more open ai,
concerts have been given, but this year
several things have operated against
this trend. You can ask them what cool, and the dates of the indoor concert and of the May Fete have been rather late. This will be the last appearance of the May Fete not because it is not for the members will stay for commencement week.
Harold Roberts, '19 College, is another University of Kansas man who will travel with William J. Bryan and the rest of the big men, who are employed by the Redpath-Horner Chauquiana this summer. He has just signed a contract to work for Roberts in a circuit that covers the north-western states. Roberts has been a member of the University band this year.

MINING PROCESS O. K.
Government Officially Recognizes Value of K. U.'s Flotation Discovery
SAVES 10 MILLION A YEAR
In Joplin District 25,000 Tons of Zinc May be Saved
Recognition by the United States Government of the value of the ore flotation process first demonstrated by the department of state chemical research at the University of Kansas has been given in the last report of the U. S. Geological Survey covering the mineral resources of the country. Five men are at present making objects to be tested for their susceptibility to ore flotation of the zinc and lead ores of the Joplin district.
BELCHIC IS IN JOPLIN
George Belchie assistant in chemical research is now at Joplin demonstrating the experiments carried on here at the University. The practice in the Joplin district has been to sacrifice high recovery to capacity and lower recovery to mines, "Slimes," or material formerly thrown away as waste because the percentage of metal in it was so small as to make purifying it unprofitable, by the flotation process is made valuable. The zinc is separated from the sand and other waste products, and the zinc is further pure to make its mining profitable.
ANNUAL SAVING OF $10,000.000
The result of the experiments by the research department show that 25,000 tons of metallic zinc will be saved yearly to the district. With zinc selling at $400 a ton, this would be an annual saving of $10,000,000 for the Joplin mines, according to a report from the investigators in the [work. Prof. W. A. Whitaker, under whose direction the experimenta are being conducted, told me they will return to the wealth of the state from this one research alone will more than pay for all the research we can ever hope to do.
There are two processes of flotation now in use. The mechanical flotation method which has been used for the skimming of skimmers skimmed from the impurities through mechanical agitation by a screw, Water and oil are mixed with the airline, and the machine, forcing air into the airline, causes the zinc to rise in bubbles to the top.
The pneumatic type of flotation machine also forms bubbles which float the zinc, but they are formed by pressure upward through a screen. A model of this kind has been purified and is being installed. Results of the mechanical and pneumatic processes will then be compared.
The problem upon which the department is now working is the reason why zinc, a heavier substance, should float to the top with the bubbles and silicone material sink to the bottom. The explanation has as yet been reached.
Work is also still being done to discover with which oils the largest percentage of zinc can be cleaned the most cheaply. The report from Joplin reads in part: "The mill recovery from these Joplin ores in the form of 58 per cent zinc concentrates, averaged from 64 per cent to 69 per cent of the zinc content of the crude ore." The State Department of Chemical Research at this University is attempting to improve even their own work.

JUST NIBBLING---OGDEN
Professor of Psychology Points Out Short Coming in University
WORK MUST BE CULTURAL
Says Higher Education is for Picked Lot.
"The idea of the University embraces creative and productive thinking, commonly called research. Our work in this area is largely due to failure in leveling our guns and holding the range. We use a method of 'nibbling' rather than one of general 'drive,'" said Prof. R. M. Hall, vice president of the University Hall Thursday at 4:00 o'clock.
This was the second of the Thursday Afternoon Faculty college lectures held this year and that they have become popular among students, faculty and the public of Lawrence was shown by the large and appreciative audience. Dean Olin Templin promises eight faculty lectures for the coming year.
Prof. Odgen took his subject, "The idea of of University," a title of a famous series of discourses by the late Cardinal Newman. He referred to these discourses of Cardinal Newman, bearing the date of 1852, with the late Cardinal outlined the principles of university education; these principles are true today, have always been true and always will be true.
INTELLECTUAL CULTURE—TOO RADICAL
The Cardinal Newman said the chief principle of the university exists for the training of the mind; it contemplates neither moral improvement nor mechanical production; its function is "this" (a radical doctrine) that "This is a radical doctrine for it does appear to set aside both morality and artistry. The University does not contemplate right conduct or technical facility! What then of our efforts to make our students models of manliness and womanliness, and what of our provisions for their training in engineering, household economics, education law and medicine." As University men and women our interests must be principally in the cultivation of our minds; our interest must be primarily in cultivation of mind but unless vocational and moral aim be secondary to that of general cultivation, our universities have no distinct duties to perform in order to succeed. And conduct; only the university has the specific function of training the intellect."
Newman advances the idea that a university should furnish the means to achieve a philosophic attitude towards life; philosopher in this association really signifies love of knowledge.
ENCOURAGES ATHLETICS
ENCOURAGES ATHLETICS
The speaker impressed the audience that one need not invest bodily health and health from the mind, sighting that statistics prove that the ones with the highest average are those of highest physical growth, health and strength. He advocated encouraging athletics and other student activities and the co-operation of the faculty along all such activities.
UNIVERSITY FOR PICKED LOT
Prof Ogden said that the idea of the University does not always find lodgment in the minds of all who enter, and that perhaps the University was to blame for part of the failure. The knowledge is abstract, but particularly sort which the University is created to promigrate and instill is assuredly "strong meat" and only vigorous minds are capable of digesting it. For this reason it appears only to a picked lot.
The communal influence on members of the university is inspiring and infectious. It broadens the life of those participating. It emphasizes rationalism and that is the chief purpose of the university. On this rational foundation the university builds character, just as it bulbs independent thinking when one ceases to be a "nibler."
The real problem of higher education, according to Professor Ogiden, is the problem of leading students to think this involves difficulties so serious many students cannot overcome them. Some are incapable of acquiring genius for facing new problems in a new field, and they are based upon a general distribution of thoughtfulness. Insight cannot be directly given one; it requires individual effort on the part of the student. Instructors can only suggest, they cannot be directly given one; it requires individual effort on the part of the student. Instructors can only suggest, they cannot form a issue or question for the student. The idea of the university embraces all subjects which may stimulate thought, yet it is not the subject, but the thought which is to be mastered.

Hodges Says It May be Fraud or Just Careless:
REPORTS INACCURATE
ness
Foster Tells Class in Accounting to Probe to the Bottom
THIRTY FIVE STILL DUE
Only fifteen out of the fifty University clubs and societies have complied with Mr. George O. Foster's imperative request to submit their financial reports for the year to the appraisal committee, and pretense of keeping books in spite of the strict command of the University that they should do so.
"Half of the number of the reports that have been submitted have been found to be in a very unsatisfactory condition," said Prof. A. C. Hodges, who is supervising the auditing of the reports which is being done by his class in advanced accounting. "It seems that some of the funds have not been properly cared for, they have disappeared in devious ways. Only a careful and careful review will tell fraud or carelessness is responsible for the numerous inaccuracies found. But when the treasurers of the different organizations keep their books so carelessly there is a presumption of fraud."
"GO TO THE BOTTOM"—POSTER With the first suspicion of those being students, Foster asked the students who were doing the auditing were doubtful of the extent of their authority in probing the cases. They sought Mr. Foster's advice. The registrar gave them authority to go to the details of things if they appeared so rotten.
SOME LOSS ACCOUNT BOOKS
The handling of the reports have shown the account payers to lose the account books of a club or society when at the end of the year there is money in the treasury. The treasurers often report to the auditors the loss, merely saying that the financial organization for the year shows a loss.
No reports have been submitted by the Junior Prom and Soph Hop committee.
COUNCIL REPORTS CLEAR
"The reports of the K. U. Dramatic Club and the Student Council are examples of well kept books," she said. Professor Hodges, "and there are several others which are in good shape."
"There is a uniform system of bookkeeping provided for clubs and societies and if it is adheared to the books will always be in a satisfactory condition. We are hoping to encourage the use of uniform systems and to help them manage the funds of the funds in the University organizations, and to lay more responsibility on those who are handling the finances.
Several of the ablest students in the class are making special investigations to ascertain whether or not some of the organizations are run for profit and if so how to be able to prevent such conditions in the future.
BAKER AGAIN WINS GAME
Sigma Chis Defeat Alpha Taus
4 to 12
By striking out fifteen batters and allowing but four hits, Baker, the Sigma Chi pitcher, again pitched his team to victory, in the game between the Sigs and the Alpha Tusae yesterday at Hamilton Field. He score was 4 to 2.
The game was exceptionally free from errors, and was closely contested all the way through. A feature of the game was the batting of Arbuthotn, the third baseman on the Sig team, who smashed out a home run the first time he was at bat and then up to the next time with a three banger.
Frank Motz, '11 College, editor of the Parsons Daily Sun and Loca Me Farlin, '12 College, will be married Saturday, June 3. Miss McFarlin was a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority.

Her opponent was Ethel Myers, who won first in the preliminaries held yesterday afternoon before the finals. Ruth Fox was second in the trophy game, but Ruth Roe, Ella Hawkins, Ethel Martin, Ethel Myers, Cora Shinn. The score in the finals was 7 to 5. Each contestant had nine shots.
CO-OP STOCK ON SALE
Faculty Men to Pay One Dollar Down For Each Five Dollar Share
BOOK EXCHANGE IN FALL
seniors Can Leave Books and Get Money Later
Among the first official acts of the new Student Council was the appointing of a committee to start the ball rolling for a 'permanent Co-op Book Store and Student Book Exchange. Three members of the Council, Wm. Wilson, Gerald Sparks and Tom Tarcant, have been named as the committee to dispose of the stock arrangements for a location, and to see to the incorporating of the store under the laws of Kansas.
One hundred shares of stock, each share having a par value of five dollars, will be sold to faculty members. The shares of stock will be delivered on an initial payment of one dollar per share, the remainder of the value paid by the shareholders to the call of the board of directors whenever they deem it necessary.
The new books that will be handled by the store will be bought on credit from some eastern houses, and the bills will be paid out of the receipts for the first semester. These companies do a large share of their business selling or credit cards or starting up under the direction of both the students and faculty have no trouble in getting credit on prospective business.
SELL STOCK AT ONCE
The store will be governed by a Board of Directors elected by the faculty stock holders from the student body and the faculty. The financial records will be entirely in the hands of the committee which will have charge of hiring the help and other similar matters. The faculty stock holders will not receive dividends from the sales, but instead earn the money paid on the stock. Profits realized from the sale of books will be divided among the purchasers according to the amount of money they have spent in the store during the year. Such amounts will be distributed in the form of checks good for so much in trade at the store.
SENIORS CAN LEAVE BOOKS
A new idea will be introduced into the book exchange this year. The present seniors who are leaving school will be allowed to place their books in the commissary for the spurt for sale next fall. The money realized from the sale of these books will be sent to the grads at their homes as soon as the accounts of the exchange can be checked up.
SENIORS CAN LEAVE ROOKS
The Council has received considerable encouragement from the faculty in its work and as soon as one hundred members of the faculty can be found wn will take one share of stock each at one dollar, and an extra room can be found. The Co-Op Store for next year is an assured factor.
STUDENTS PASS UP RULE
Embyro Educators Teach Without Certificates
The laws of Kansas require that a teacher of a high school or an instructor in a college must hold a teacher's certificate before he can teach. It seems as if these regulations are not followed closely. Since Prof. H, W. Nutt left for an out-of-town trip last week, students of his class have been taking turns in instructing each other. Those who have already done this are Josephine Gillett, Carl Swanson and Ernest Mower.

MAY RECONSIDER PLAY
16s Are "Sore" Because "Copping the Grapes" Was Turned down for Shostac's Play
WANT ANOTHER MEETING
Say They Want Show to be a '16 Affair
A petition signed by over 100 members of the senior class was presented to J. R. Randolph, president of the senior class, this afternoon, asking that the matter of the play to be given Tuesday night of Commencement be given a reconsideration by the class as a whole. At a mass meeting of the class last Tuesday afternoon at the Gumbiner's offices, members of the class were present, it was voted to give Prof. B. Shoostat "The Stuff of Laughter," instead of Alton Gumbiner's "Copping the Grapes." The decision was made upon the recommendation of two members of the cast of the senior play, who said that they would be unable to appear in the play next week. Members of the class who are interested in the senior play say that this does not warrant the class as a whole and that they the class meeting so that the sentiment of a majority of the class can be obtained.
"OUR PLAY IS BEADY"—BURNETT
Don Burnett, manager of the senior play, said this morning that he believed that the matter should be reconsidered. "I had no idea that the senior play was not to be given, as has been the custom in the past, or I would have been out to the meeting for the Commission week to deepen the and will be able to put it on in good shape. The local hits, which will mean nothing to the alumni and visitors, have been cut out and the entire play worked over. We have understudies who can fill any vacant places in the cast. Mr. Gumbiner has put in a lot of work," Burnett said. "It is to be produced by seniors I believe that it should have precedence over "The Stuff of Laughter."
The petitions demand that another meeting be called and that the class as a whole decide whether or not they want Mr. Gumbiner's play or Mr. Shostac's. They say that since "Copping the Grapes" was written by a senior and produced by seniors, it should be given the preference.
RANDOLPH MAY REFUSE
J. R. Randolph, president of the
class, said that he did not see that the
matter had to be reconsidered.
He decided that all the answers
the class knew that the meeting was to
be held and that they should have been out if they wanted their ideas to be considered.
37 K. U. WOMEN TO ESTES Large Representation Will go to the Conference
With the names of thirty-seven women of the University Y. W. C. A. on the list of those who are planning to go to the Estes Park Conference this summer, the conference committee feels assured of a successful summer for the association and of better work for next year.
"This is the largest number of
Women K. U. has ever sent to the
conference at Estes Park," said Miss
Ellen Tavares, only ten women, from the association."
Of the thirty-seven women, nine are members of the cabinet: Evelyn Strong, president; Sarah Rowe, vicepresident; Virginia Lucas, Helen Angers Stella Cole, Jeanne Russell, Agnes Hurtzler, Mary Brownlee and Grace Bell.
There are two conferences. The first begins August 22 and lasts ten days. The second continues for fourteen days.
The Reverend George Darsie, pastor of the First Christian church, has been in Lawrence less than two weeks but he was one of the most enthusiastic rooters at the baseball games Friday and Saturday. He says he was born in New York and takes a great deal of interest in the work at the University.
Prof. W. A. Griffith keeps a lead pencil which is always ready to lend. He says it is always returned to him and by this method of keeping a special pencil to lend, he always has one left even though he does pass one out. He has kept the same pencil for two years. It is one-half inch long.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate in order to go further than merely printing the text. The University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be generous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to increase the ability of the students of the University.

THE SENIOR PLAY
The demand of many members of the senior class that another mass meeting be called to give all the members of the class a chance to vote on the question of the play to be given during Commencement Week, seems to the editor of the Kausan to be justified. When the mass meeting was called, at an hour when few seniors could conveniently attend, there was no intimation that the matter of the play wa st come up for consideration. The majority of the members of the class supposed that the tradition of years in giving the senior play over again was to be followed.
Of course there is the excuse that the meeting was publicly announced and that if only fifty seniors were interested enough to come out they should have the right to determine the policy of the entire class of 400. But this excuse does not justify the decision. Every member of the class should be present and express his or her opinion at the next meeting.
The senior play during commencement week is a tradition which the Kansan does not believe that the University should break.
If the head nurse of the student hospital really wants empty bottles, here's a tip. Look in the closet of any Law student's room, or the basement of any house occupied by newspaper students.
THE ALUMNI DINNER
The announcement that the alumni dinner will be held this year, as it has for many years past, has been received with pleasure by the members of the senior class and the entire University. The fifty cent fee, charged because an economical state auditor does not believe that the members of the class are entitled to all the money which they turn in as a diploma fee, will keep few people from the dinner. There seems to be little doubt but that the dinner will be as much of a success ever.
Kansas, with her bonds burned and her University crowded into atties and basements, may not be able to pay for the alumni feed. In fact Mr. Davis has assured us that she is not. But Kansas alumni aren't going to be cheated out of an opportunity to break bread together once more. The alumni dinner will be a success.
One economical senior says that he isn't going to buy an alumni dinner ticket until he sees the menu.
THE FITTEST SURVIVE
One more curtain and the nine months' show on Mount Oread will have been a thing of the past. Whether the acting has been up to par will be judged by the board of critics, known as the faculty. The specialties and the different skits introduced such as vacations and unofficial holidays have been many and as varied as those of the real life and experiences we observe from day to day.
The outgoing seniors, those who have been the center of attraction for
the past four years will carefully wrap the sackcloth of education about them and hie away to be seen later in action on the stage of life's work. Some make good and some don't for such is the law of the survival of the fittest.
OUR VANISHING WALK
The art of walking is on the wane. The question now is, how long will it be until our lower extremities are simply props? On every side we may see the writing on the wall.
Although a few students still shuffle back and forth to class, the main body surges through the drives of the campus on motor cycles and in dilapidated motor cars made over into powerful and fancy roadsters. To these conveyances must be added the varieties of Fords which scurry hither and thither in their little fordish ways. But the fact still remains that a few students, evidently up against hard times, continue to shag about on foot.
It behoves the best talent in the University to provide a way for these walking delegates to keep up with the times. The most feasible suggestion rendered so far is the coaster fad. The efficiency of these swift little gliders can be secured from any small boy of the town. The instructions for operating are very simple. Poise on one foot using the other for an occasional push. The left arm is free for holding an umbrella or steading the equilibrium of the girl who may be gliding along at your side. The right arm determines the direction you go by gently pushing on an upright steering device. In this manner it is possible to travel with as much ease and speed as the automobilist.
Accurate calculations show that the inauguration of such a practical conveyance at this school would permit a student to graduate one year sooner and have as many credits left over as can now be made during summer school. That this is no wild guess can easily be shown. The time saved in going to and from classes would make the ten extra credits. The time saved in going down Mount Oread twice a day would easily account for the other thirty.

The poetry of the Northern races is for most Americans and Englishmen a thing practically unknown. Nor- worted poems have, of course, won the hearts of music-lovers the world over, but those whose music is made merely by the combination of words have as yet little familiarity with the language not familiar with their language.
POET'S CORNER
Accordingly, the enterprise of the American-Scandinavian Foundation in opening to readers of English a new world of letters deserves special commendation. And particularly worthy of a more general circulation than it has had is the poetry of that great composer Johann Sebastian Bjornstjerne Bjornsten. Patriotism, imagination, and extraordinary skill in making word-pictures brought him the applause of his fellow countrymen, and these qualities appear in the translations which make up his "Poems and Songs" (American-Scandinavian Foundation). The poem "I am the Beautiful Man,"armae de his violet and national feeling; the translator has, however, sacrificed polish for the sake of literality.

KNOCKING KNOCKERS
Editor Daily Kansan:

To the Editor of the Daily Kansan:
Commencement Week is near at hand. You are even now setting forth the events of that week in your columns, and would like to say just a few words about it, but which follows the Commencement exercises on Wednesday. A free University is out of the question for this year. There is no use "crying over spilt milk," but rather let every loyal senior help to keep alive one of the challenges we have here at the University.

so, at least.
—Satisfied.
I am prompted to urge this partly by a remark made to me recently by a friend of the University: "The alumni will support the dinner. I'm not so sure that the seniors will do so." Seniors, let us challenge that fear about how many have been in good conditions. This is the opportunity to tide over a crisis in the history of an here-to-fore established tradition. I happen to live in Lawrence. I have witnessed three of these dinners. I have heard many seniors say that this will be the first Commencement Week that they have ever attended. May I, then, add my testimony to that that we have been present in these occasions and be permitted to say that this is the crowning event of the whole week. We have expected the "parting" feeling. Instead we shall find that we have been graduated into

You get longer wear out of this cool, convenient garment. The elasticity of the crotch relieves the strains which rip the seam of ordinary union suits. This saves you money—that's another kind of comfort.

a larger and a finer opportunity.
From all over the land they will be there—loyal sons and daughters of the lamb, their love and love and service for our Alms Mater. To every corner of the lam we, too, then, will go, conscious that we have a larger role to play—the servant of the service I give to our University.
Every senior will wish to be present at the dinner. We know through the Kansan that we should send in our names to Mr. Flint at the Alumni headquarters as soon as possible. There are many things to be done just now, but nothing should crowd us or distract us—at once the last thought of our senior year, and the first act of our careers as alumni.
—A Senior.
DEFENDS SPEAKER
Who ever wrote the "Mothers of Kansas," misunderstood the statement and the effect intended. I think that it was the speaker's intention to say "I don't care if you wash, instead of reaping a big salary of grapes from the state."
I wish to say a word in regard to the editorial which appeared in the Kansan under the heading of "Moths" and to my surprise, the letter from the Indignant Seniors.
you know it to be a fact that when a person "does something" he or she is bound to make enemies. I admire the spunk and tight which the young lady representing the College showed. We all know that she is all the comment against her by her enemies before the speech. Even the Kansan stated the night before the speech that some had said that she should not be allowed to appear on the program. Others said that a woman could not blame them, but we all livered a nice oratorical essay the criticisms would have been, "I told you so." It seems to me that she took them to task for all these previous uncalled for remarks. Certainly some did not like the speech, I don't blame them. I would say they were Clinton's. Like some of them were. She cannot be blamed for justifying her place on the program, and it is my opinion as well as that of many others that she had a come back which was a knockout punch, and used it very effectively in an attack on one of the speakers who received any notice at all by the State papers and the Kansas City papers.
—One Who Admired "Ma" Sunday.
will be the hosts of two thousand of the students of the University of Nebraska, when they visit Omaha on the omaha business invitation of the Omaha business men.
We also might remember that the young lady in question already has an almost nation wide reputation as a public speaker and politician, and that her words have had their effect on MISouri and Kansas spite of the dignificant Seniors" and "Mothers o Kansas."
At the University of Washington, golf has been added to the list of women's sports. It is said that par-turns have given credit for physical education.

Mrs. Eustace Brown requests that all students who participated in the Scotch Dance at the Halloween Party and who are still owing for the gingham for their costumes, please call at once at her office and pay the small amount. The greater part of this bill is still unpaid, and it is unfair to expect the merchants to carry the account any longer.
ROOM LISTS FOR NEXT YEAR are being prepared which will be classified so far as possible according to the instructions given to students' ability to pay. When completed the lists may be consulted at the registrar's office, the offices of the Advisor of Women, the X. M. C. A., the School Board and the University Hospital.
Sigma Delta Chi meets Thursday night at 7:45 at the Beta house.
Senior Invitations may be secured by those who ordered them, at the Fraser check stand on Thursday, Friday, Monday and Tuesday mornings.
Here are the answers to the list
concerning the University.
the questions were for the most part fundamental, and the facts questioned for the most part are landmarks in the history of the University. The following brief sketch will explain what types of questions asked. Get out the Kansan containing the questions and then read them.
The first steps towards establishing an institution of higher learning in the State of Kansas were taken by the Congress of the United States, when on January 29, 1861, the day that Kansas was admitted as a state, sections of land were set aside for the use and support of a State University. In 1863 Lawrence was selected as the site of the University and one year later the state legislature passed an act organizing the University, giving it the name of The University of Kansas. A new university government of the institution was vested in a Board of Regents appointed by the governor.
OLIVER, FIRST CHANCELOR
The Board met in 1865 and decided to open a preparatory department as soon as the citizens of Lawrence would be permitted to purpose. The building was started in the fall of 1866 and the building now known as "North College," the cradle of the University, was built on the summit of a hill by the gifts of individuals and organizations in Lawrence. In July of the same year the first faculty of two men was chosen, and on September 12, 1866, classes in the University convened for the first time. Rev. R. W. Clark was the first professor. He resigned after one year of service, and was succeeded by General John Fraser.
PRASER. THEN MARVIN
FRASSE, THEN MARVIN
General Fraser was appointed in 1874 by the King, His resignation, in 1833 was followed by the election of Dr. Joshua Lippincott, and in 1890 Prof. Francis H. Snow was elected to the position of Chancellor. He served until he signed in 1901, and W. C. Spangler, a graduate of the University and a member of the Board of Regents was made temporary Chancellor. In April, 1902, Dr. Frank Strong was elected to fill the place which he occupies today.
NEW BUILDINGS
In 1872, on account of the steadily increasing enrollment, Fraser Hall was built by the city of Lawrence and the State Legislature on the present main campus. The cost of the building was $140,500; $90,000 of which was appropriated for the citizens of Lawrence, and $50,000 of which was appropriated by the state. The building known as Medical Hall, at present used for laboratories in physiology and by the University Holy Mary Kenyon, was second building on the campus. Snow Hall was the third, being built in 1886.
MANY GIFTS
There are 163.5 acres of land on the campus at Lawrence and 7.5 on the campus of the Medical School at University Buildings at Lawrence, of which were built by private gifts. These include the Oread Training School, Service Building and the University Buildings, which is a part of the University.
The first wing of the proposed Administration Building was started in 1911. When completed, the total cost will be above $500,000. [The building offices and classes of several departments in the College.]

AND MANY SCHOOLS

Before You Go Home—
We just want to say a word.
We want first to congratulate the seniors. That's enough. If we talked on it would be to repeat the same old time-worn phrases used for the last century. You have all helped the University while you were helping yourself. Beat it out into the world and kick green dust in the faces of those who are not as well prepared as you. You are expected to lead. Don't fall down when the big call comes.
To the rest of the student body we bid farewell. We'll see you bright and early next fall. We are always on the job and will be here to greet you on the first day of registration in September.
Let Us Talk Some More—
We have no alibis to offer for the mistakes of the Kansan this year. We take pride in the realization of the fact that the paper was better this year than last as it was last year than the one before. It pleases us to know that we are going upward. It should please you. It is your paper. We have been on the wrong side a number of times this year. We acknowledge it. But our position was prompted by no influence. Our judgment was not mature and we see it now. But we again take pleasure in looking back over the past nine months and knowing that we have been in the right more often than in the wrong.
There never was a paper and there probably never will be one that is not wrong part of the time. We have instituted a check system on our news in order to make it more accurate. By looking over the paper of this and other years you would find out that the new system has worked well. We run nothing but perfectly legitimate advertising. Our circulation is high-class. We have printed six special issues this year, sending free copies of the paper out over the state to barbers, ministers, doctors, dentists, lawyers, engineers, legislators, and business men. These papers have, by a conservative estimate, been read by more than five hundred thousand citizens of Kansas. A daily paper of good class is bound to make an impression on the reader. We feel that we have done a good service to the University through these special issues.
We Feel a Bit Puffed Up—
We look with pride on our paper when we compare it with the publications from other schools. We want to thank the students for their part in making the Kansan what it is, for their kindly criticism, their sincere suggestions. And again, may we congratulate you on the year's work and hope to see the majority of you back next fall. It may be that we will have a surprise for you.

OUT FOR VALLEY TITLE
HANGS ON DARK HORSES
Unknowns May Upset Dope at Conference Meet
In figuring out the dope for the annual Missouri Valley meet in Columbia Saturday afternoon, Kansas loops up as a strong bidder for the championship of the Valley Of course, that little defeat by Missouri may make a difference but the tables are likely to be turned in this meet.
But little can be doped out in advance because of the large number of entries in each event. Beside the conference schools all the smaller colleges in the Valley are entitled to representation and most of them have an individual star who is liable to spring up as a dark horse and change the results among the big teams materially. Such a man is Davis of Fairmount College. He has no team to support him but individ-uals will cause one dear friend, Mr. Simpson, no little worry in the dashes.
Another case of this happened two years ago when Cowman came to the surface from the Rolla School of Mines in Missouri and set the mark in the quarter mile for 48:2. And by the way no athlete in the Valley has come within a second and a half of that record since it was established in 1905, yet until a Meredith or a Dismond invades the Mountaineer Valley Meet.
HOYT MAX RUN AT CAMBRIE
The big meet in Cambridge Saturday may take from the Valley to Maine, most likely for most of the dashers. This man Hoyt of Grinnell College is recognized as one of the fastest sprinners in the country. In the Drake Games last month, in a special match he defended by the country the 220-dash and his own intercollegiate record.
But to come back to the dope from the Kansas point of view we find that Coach Hamilton is not looking for it. He knows nothing about thought to know that someone will be taking care of Bob Simpson while his men are running up a big score in the distances. It is estimated that forty points will win the meet and they will be a winner and especially so if the crime and blue can win the relay.
WHERE THE POINTS COME FROM
In the first place Hamilton counts among his firsts the quarter, the half,
the mile and possibly the two-mile, in which he is most successful.
Rebe is good for five points in the shot put. Pattinson, after his performance two weeks ago, will set another record for the pole vault and it should be good enough to give him a bronze medal. Simpson will take a second to Simpson in the broad jump unless Davis, Packer and a few of Simpson's early rivals get next to him before the broad jump is reached. Staelen will annex at least three points in the race unless a dark horse gets in the way.
In the hurdles Kansas cannot count any points with Simpson, Packer, Rennick and Frizzell in the going. And it may be that bad in the dashes unless Davidson shows some of the "old pepper" which he exhibited out at Manhattan. If he does that he will be sure of a good place.
In the relay you can pick up your own winner. Missouri won easily in the outdoor meet after Kansas had tied the indoor performances. But Missouri knows better than to think that Kansas will be the final and prettiest race of the year. Ames may also figure in this event.
TREWEKE WOULD SAVE K. U.
Should Treweke be able to get into the going a victory for Kandu because of his team leaves for Columbia. But the Jayhawk jumper is in bad shape and he may not be able to suit up when the time comes. This will leave Grutzmacher to fight Simpson in the broad range against the R. K. S. A. C, in the high jump.
The team will leave for the lair of the Tiger tomorrow morning and will have plenty of time to rest before the big circ starts Saturday afternoon. Some twenty men will be taken but even Coach Hamilton has not made out his list yet. They will return Sunday morning.

The clothing, dry goods, grocery and shoe stores of Lawrence will remain closed all next Tuesday, Decoration Day.

WANT SUMMER WORK
Many Women Would Make Expenses for Summer Session
More than twenty-four calls have come to Miss Anne Gittis, secretary of Y. W. C. A., for work to help pay expenses for Summer School. This number does not include the women already have their places for next year.
The reason for the shortage of places where women may work for room and board or during the Summer Session is that such a large number of families who have available places go away from the city.
"Anyone who wishes student help for the summer school should send in their names at once in order that I may have an opportunity to place the students I have just applied me for employment," said Miss Gittis, this morning.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
An inordinate curiosity prompted three men students in the chemistry department to climb to the third floor of the Chemistry Building, Saturday night and, with the aid of the eyepiece of a galvanometer, watch the women's formal in the Gymnasium. The glass reflected the figures upside down to see the young chemist who able to see such to help acquaintances as to where they found out what the women were as masquerades.

The Great Out-doors for Summer Comfort
To make your porch comfortable you need good porch furniture, and good shades to keep out the hot sun of the late afternoon—shades that will let in the breeze but keep out the sun.
You will want to spend a good deal of the time this summer out on the porch instead of sweltering inside of the house. There will be very few evenings when you cannot make your porch comfortable and homelike if it is well furnished.
In our stock you will find a delightful assortment of chairs and rockers in oak, walnut, reed and Chinese Sea Grass. We also have a stock of porch swings from which you will be able to find one that will please you individually.
Let us fit your porch for this summer. We can make it both attractive and comfortable at a very reasonable price.

THE COMING PART OF TOWN
Extending from Louisiana to Illinois Streets and from Seventeenth to Nineteenth Streets are some ideally-located lots for University professors' homes and sorority and fraternity houses. That part is known as
University Place Addition
and in a few years it will be filled with good-looking houses.
Mr. University Professor, have you ever thought how much more satisfactory it would be to live in a house of your own planning, built to your own particular needs, with every room just where you want it? To be more specific, wouldn't you like to own a home in University Place Addition—just a few blocks south of Blake Hall, away from the business part of town, yet close to the car line?
Why Not Build There Now?
Why not talk this building proposition over with me? I have the lots in this addition—enough of them so that you can find what you want—and will build you the home you desire; built exactly according to your plans and specifications, and make it possible for you to pay for this home in small monthly installments. Stop in and talk it over tomorrow.

Professor Hodge Finds Inaccuracies and Careless Work in Student Reports
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 26, 1916.
FEW STATEMENTS ARE IN
Only One-Fourth of Organiza tions Have Allowed Audit
Lack of system and uniformity is the great trouble with the student accounts that are being audited by Prof. A. C. Hodge and the members of his faculty, according to a statement made by Professor Hodge this morning.
"Many of the accounts are more inaccurate statements made on a sheet of paper, others are made in cheap note books, and a few are kept in the books furnished by the Registrar. We must learn to understand documents as to the probabilities of graft in the various organizations until we go over the books that we now have more thoroughly, which will be more of a job than we had bargained for.
The organizations that have turned in their accounts up to date are: The Quill Club, Junior Class, Dramatic Club, International Polly Club, Botany Club, Law Banquet, Zoology Club, Home Economics Club, Student Council, University Department of Mathematics and the engineers. This list makes up only about a fourth of the student organizations on the hill which are supposed to render accounts for auditing to Registrar Foster. Whether the remainder of the accounts are lost, strained or stolen, they are important organizations merely neglect to turn them in is a matter of conjecture to the officials who have the auditing
FUTURE ACTION UNDETERMINED
FUTURE ACTION UNDERFERMED
The Registrar's office this morning in the absence of Registrar Foster, could perhaps step that steps would be taken to secure the auditing of the books due this year or in years to come. Organizations supposed to keep uniform books are those of class, departmental and school activities and organizations which handle student money in any sums whatever. Such activities include the committee of the classes which have charge of any class funds. The classes are supposed to turn in detailed accounts of the money spent and received by such committees as the memorial, the smoker committees, together with the receipts for the expenditures. Class and school honorary societies and fraternities are not included in this list.
When the Kansan announced that the Registrar was ready to give out the account books last fall very few organizations called for the books. A special letter brought out a few more, and the majority of those who did receive the books knew nothing of keepup of accounts; still they will be taken to establish the uniform system of accounting next fall lies with Registrar Foster, whose absence from the city is holding up definite action on the books at present.
Blondie Makes a Junior Class Report
Blondie Jones president of the junior class, today handed in a signed statement of the financial standing of the class to be published for the benefit of the juniors. This year's account showing practically $50 cash on hand. Debts contracted last year have not been settled by this year's administration on the grounds that the old officials held out a sufficient amount for this purpose, only part of which has been paid over to the payer. Because much pressure had been brought to bear according to the statement.
Bill Weber's report on the receipts and expenditures showed $5.15 profit. Henry Pegues, chairman of the social committee, reports an itemized account of the junior dance, which网众艺龄ers report $18.90 profit. All other receipts and expenditures for the year have been made out and a report is ready to be audited. The memorial committees have been held strictly to account for every cent collected but complete from those members who are responsible for holding out last year's money.
The following is a portion of the signed statement made by Blondie.
"The last year's funds were kept in a very loose condition and I have had much difficulty in collecting what I have. There are still some outstanding debts that committee men of last year's class have not paid for. We have records of keeping account of the class funds for last year. I have refused to pay some of the debts contracted by the class last year. . . . I do so with a clear conscience to the class of this year. I would welcome an investigation of the

**ufairs of the class for the last two years for I have run into many unpleasant accidents and have had trouble in collecting those that were known to the public.**
"The money will all be turned over to Registrar Foster this year with the names of the contributors. . . .
The accounts of this year's business are exactly straight. I hope a system may be worked out which will cover the heads of all the classes just what they are to do in providing a uniform system of accounting for all class rands. The system at present is very lax and a great deal of work is entailed in keeping the accounts correctly."

Star Was in Great Form—Given Perfect Fielding Support
Ames, Iowa. May 25.—George Smee was in great form this afternoon and aided by great fielding and errorless support succeeded in shutting out the Ames Aggies, 6 to 0, in the first of the two game series on College Field<sup>1</sup>
Three hits were all the Iowa State batters could get off the Jayhawkers' star hurler during the nine innings while Kansas pounded the two Ames hurlers for a total of eleven swats. It was batting with two singles and a double.
The second game of the series is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, Coach Leon McCarty the Kansas coach announced tonight that he will have two games in this second contest leaving Poirier to face the strong Highland Park nine Saturday in Des Moines. The Highland Park collegians have been playing great ball this season and have done several other strong university teams.
WARNS AGAINST DATES
Dr. Naismith Says Afternoon Fussing Keeps Athletes From Practice
"Affternoon dates hurt athletes at K. U. more than danced dates," said Dr. James Naismith, head of the department of physical training. "Many men who come here to school who have been good high school athletes, refuse to come out for the teams because they are too scared in the afternoons, talking to women students on the steps of the buildings and taking them to the movies.
DANCING GOOD EXERCISE
DANCING GOOD EXERCISE
"As an athlete, I think it is good for the athlete because it gives him grace, but too much dancing will take the time of the athlete from his school as well as rob him of sleep," he said.
"Many of our star athletes are social leaders and attend many of the events they participate in, but I believe that they obey the rules of training and leave the dances at the early hour that is necessary for them to show up well in the contests as a leader."
OLD DANCES BEST
There are two classes of men on the Hill those who dance far too much and are to be seen at every dance and are to be seen at all. I am average of the two could be struck, we would have a model man in regard to the dance proposition. I do not favor the present dances," continued Dr. Naimithm, "and I will be glad to see them back into their own. It takes grace and ability to dance those old dances, these dances of today are only glides and walks across the floor and have neither grace nor charm of any kind. They are out on the floor and do themselves without any practice. They are not very desirable."
The final contest for the Oral Interpretation I classes will be held Wednesday evening, May 31, in Green Hall. The program will begin promptly at 7 o'clock, at which time the doors are be closed. There are three seminars from Prof. Howard Hill's two classes and three from Prof. Arthur MacMurray's class. A prize of five dollars will be awarded to the best speaker.

No Reconsideration on Decision for "The Stuff of Laughter" by Seniors
PLAY ROW CONTINUES SHOW FIRST AID WORK
MAY GIVE BOTH PLAYS
Irate Seniors May Put on Gum biner's Show at Theatre
In a statement which was turned into the Kansan office too late to print in full, C. A. Randolph, president of the senior class, this afternoon defined his position in regard to the play to be given during commencement week. The essence of his statement was as follows:
Four fifths of the members of the class are in favor of the Shostac play instead of "Copping the Grapes." The fifty seniors out at the class meeting which decided upon the Shostac play were Coping, for this reason the class and they decided that, since Gumbiner's play depended upon local hits to put it across, it would not be fitting for commencement week. The Stuff of Laughter is more appropriate since it can be given on the campfire or on the screen for the Play was started by a few interested individuals and is not worthy of consideration.
Send the Daily Kansan home.
MAY PUT ON "COPPING THE GRAPES"
Members of the class say that
the fact that their petitions that the regular
senior play be given had more
power than the 4-5 of the class are not in sympathy with the Shostac play, that the caste of the senior play and its author had been
given to understand that the show was
to be put on during Commencement
programs, but that it would
be turned to that end. They assert that the
play scheduled upon the Commencement
programs is "Copping the
grape," that they have spent time in
preparing to give it over again, as
was done last year, and that they feel
they could have a vote on the question.
MEETING NOT CALLED
The mass meeting of the class which was asked for was not called for this afternoon and there is talk among the seniors of putting on Mr. Grumbin's business meeting without the sanction of the class president. The management says that since the caste has gone to the trouble of preparing the play they can see no reason why the student body should be unable to see whichever玩 it will attend.
TWELVE LOYAL SENIORS ON HIKERLESS HIKE
Anton Gumbiner, author of "Coping the Grapes" makes the statement that he did not start the agitation for the senior play to be regiven.
Mrs. C. J. Evans, of Topea, spent Tuesday in Lawrence assisting Miss Lina Bressette, the State Factory Inspector who is investigating laundry conditions here. She also visited her niece, Maureen McKernan.
Pepperless Pep Prevailed.
Sure the senior hike yesterday evening was a success. Ask any one of the dozen who attended it. Was it however, a seniorless senior bile—a hikerless dog, or a seniorless dog, barked in vain for someone to eat them, but alas the seniors failed to appear—all except the "fairly room few." There were plenty more room in Woodland Park to accommodate a few more seniors, but the few hundred that been complaining that the class was dead did not come to help revive it.
Far down in the woods of Woodland, the brave band of a dozen gathered wood for the fire over which the dogs were to meet their fate. When the call came for matches it seemed that it was a "smokeless smoker" instead of a hikerless hike, for the dogs were to come up—but in the hands of one accounted to the use of a jimmy pipe that lonely match soon set a good fire to blazing.
The officers of the senior class were present. It had been supposed that those seniors who had pop enough to be in the audience, suggested that "Copping the Grapes" be given as the senior play, instead of "The Stuff of Laughter," would attend the hite in order to vote again on the play, and that "the duggity dozen" was that "The Stuff of Laughter" should be given, as it would be given out of doors and make a better impression on visitors at that reason—besides it would be cooler.
After doing all the damage they could to the food and to the songs the representatives of the senior class "Hike" in time to evade the date rule.
"Dogs" were soon speared and sizzed over the fire. Then each took a roll down the hillside and fell too. After eating for an hour or two, a stateite was formed—just enough there, you see!) And some song songs.
Rescue Car to be at University of Kansas a Whole Week Next Fall
TO BE AT FOOTBALL GAME
Practical Demonstration Rescue Brigade Between Halves
First aid work and demonstrations for the students of mining engineering and the other students of K. U. on a scale never before attempted may be provided. University next fall if the plans of Prof. A. C. Terrill are carried out.
RESCUE CAR HERE?
The plans involve another visit of the Mine Rescue Car of the United States Bureau of Mines to Lawrence for instructing the men of the mining methods of rescue work. An attempt will be made to have the car here for a full week during the football season. On Saturday of one of the big games, a practical demonstration of rescue work on the course will be given.
A large model of a mine is to be used and practical demonstrations of the methods used in rescue work will provide an opportunity for men after an explosion. On the side lines demonstrations of first aid to men who suffer from various kinds of "accidents" and "injuries" will furnish important instruction for their spectators.
A demonstration of first aid works of all kinds on the floor of Robinson Gym is another possibility for the public to attend. The public will be admitted to the galleries.
GOT IDEA FROM PITTSBURG
The idea for the first aid week came rom the "first aid field meet" that was held recently in Pittsburgh by he miners and operators of southeast arn Kansas, aided by the mine rescue ar of the Bureau of Mines.
Prof. A. C. Terrill of the department of mining engineering attended the meeting and spoke to the miners of the district on "Co-operation and efficiency." He also addressed the operators of the district in district office in Yayoi City Mo. This is important that he has spoken to this group of men on their weekly lunch.
"At the Pittsburgh meeting there were seven teams of rescue men entered and the competition for the prizes was keen. The operators and men that the teams were given fairly good marks in the rescue work," said Professor Terrill today, "and this speaks well for the success of the safety first movement."

CO-OP STOCK ON SALE
Putman Buys First Share in New University Book Store
EXCHANGE OPENS MONDAY
Books Should be Left at Check Stand in Fraser
"Stock in the Co-operative Book Store goes on sale this afternoon. Prof. George Putnam is the first faculty member to buy a share." This announcement was made this morning by W. H. Wilson, Chairman of the Book Exchange Committee. "The general policies of the store and the time for opening will be determined by the stockholders. Owing to the late start arrangements have not been made for opening the store next semester. The date that the less someone is appointed to work on the plant this summer. In any case the book exchange will be open for the fall semester.
"All next week books may be left for exchange at the check stand in Fraser Hall. This arrangement is for the especial benefit of the seniors, although any one may take advantage of it. At the end of each left and someone will take charge of the exchange the books will be sold to the summer students.
"Part of the Student Council and some of the faculty members advocate student ownership of half of the shares, and decreasing the par value of the shares from $5 to $1. The Board of Administration has halted the work of the exchange by putting off their approval of the plans."
MAY FETE EXPENSIVE
Gate Receipts Totaled $700 But Cost of Costumes Ate Into Profits
The net proceeds of the May Fete which was held under the auspices of the W. S. G. A. this year were not as large as were expected. A total of 10,000 yards of fabric and but the heavy expense incurred for costumes and the delay caused by bad weather greatly curtailed the profits. The members of the W. S. G. A. economized in every way possible to keep the cost of the dresses, 800 yards of cloth were dyed, because it was found that the cloth in colors cost a third more than white. The faculty members of the department of physical education supervised the dancing and the making of the dresses, lessening the expenses considerably.
"The Stuff of Laughter," written and staged by Percy Shostae was the principal item of expense. The costumes and property for the play were rented and musicians were called from Kansas City. The piano had to be moved after every performance to guard against damage by rain.
The Y. W. C. A. cleared $535 last year on the May Fete and charged only 35c for both evening performances. The weather conditions were ideal and the evening performance was entirely obed of expense.
BAND TO PLAY ITS

Historic Landmark of Good Old Days to Again Appear on Campus
RELIC OF THE CLASS OF '93
Will be Set Up Again During Commencement Week
The pole was made in 1893 by one of the members of the senior class to answer some of the difficulties that presented to the fronted with. The story is given as told by Prof. Frank B. Ward, formerly superintendent of the Fowler Shops.
The Kansas University tombole tome which signifies the life of the students of the University of Kansas in terms of Indian sign-language and which was created by the University of Kansas when the University is be erected once more during Commencement Week.
PROFESSOR WARD TEELS ST.,
The custom has been built to the plant
1890 by the engineer to plant a tree on the campus. In the year 1890 when the hole for the tree that was to be planted that year had been dug and filled with water, that the tree might have a good start in its growth, one of the seniors caught a freshman who was standing near and threw him into the hole. It then died as the class was started. The following year when the time to plant the tree of the class came there was some further difficulty between the classes and the next year saw a repetition of the trouble. As a result the members of the class of '93 decided to make the pole, set it up and move it along the path. Then the last two tree-plantings. The hole for the pole was dug in the night and carefully covered over so that the freshmen might not find it. Early the next morning the pole was planted and guarded all day by the ever-watchful seniors. The pole was presented to the professor. He then the class of '93 and a son of Prof. H. Robinson, one of the three men who composed the first faculty of the University.
REPRESENTS 4 CLASSES OF U.
The pole was about twenty feet tall and is engraved with a pair of rough work boots and slouched felt hat at the bottom, a devil's face above that, a horse's head above that and an Indian head upon which resists an owl, Translated into plain terms the toots signify the various states of the student body. At the University, First there is the rough freshman who comes in from the farm with his rough boots and hat—typical of Kansas at that time. The devil's face is the sophomore who comes back the second year intent upon playing the things that his face suggests. The pony's head admits that by the time a man has reached maturity he is clear in character, up to the use of the gallop method of studying, while the Indian head is the head of "Big-Man-Me," who with the owl on his头 knows as much as that wise old bird is supposed to know.
The pole got through the exercises without any mishaps but it was allowed to stand after the exercises were over and one morning the students of the University were startled by finding a skull and cross-bones on the sidewalk beside the pole. The mole of the meaning of this symbol, nothing was done about it until the next morning the old cannon that had been seen service in the Civil War and which stood ordinarily in South Park was found on the east side of the road pointing at the pole. Still nothing was done to remove the pole. In the small hours of the night out of its bed by a mammoth report and the next morning one side of the pole was found torn out by the discharge of the scraps of iron and filings from the shops that had been fired into the pole from the cannon. The poor aim of the marksman was the only reason for complete destruction. The pole was taken down then but the cannon was left. In the sma' sma' hours of the next morning the chancellor, Dr. F. H. Snow, was wakened by the report of the same gun that had done the work the night before. Then and after the snowfall the basement of Snow Hall and the boys had to take the cannon back to its place in the park.
The men who did the mischief and to whom the University life was so slow that they could not stand even one year of it were three who came up from Hiawatha, the town of "Cussing Tom" Smith, Charles Patrici. John Cracroft and Steve Everett. Everett is now manager of the Canvassing team, but the others have also achieved success. Mr. Ward stated that he believed that this was the first time that these names had been published as he was the only one who knew the men in the stunts, except the men themselves.
This is the pole that is to be erected this Commencement.

VACATION AND THE JOB
VACATION AND THE JOB
A week from today many of the students of the University will scatter to all parts of the United States, some to work, some to play. The ones who work will come back next fall richer in experience, more mature in judgment, and with an enlarged outlook on life. They will come back with that self-satisfied feeling of having accomplished something, with the sensation of having played a man's part in the game of living and having made good.
The loafer will return with the newest dance steps, a greater discrimination in the quality of cigarettes and a sang froid which comes from giving dad's money to waiters and cooing to girls at summer resorts. His hat will be set at a little greater angle, he will speak a bit more patronizingly to the barbs and his cockurensure will be untempered with experience.
Fortunately there are few students in the University who have either the desire or the opportunity to spend a summer in idleness. Most of us are Kansans by birth, temperament and desire, and Kansans aren't loafers.

WE NEED SHEEP
Inventions and appliances of man have wrought many changes in the methods that Nature worked out for doing things, but in handling the dandelion situation, we will have to revert to her plan.
For years people have commented on the hopelessness of the patient, stooping laborer trying to combat the dandelion with his knife and bucket. "Cannot some more efficient method be devised?" they have asked. Their question has been answered by adopting the method that Nature provided for such nuisances.
At the Kansas State Agricultural College it was noticed that the sheep, which are owned by that institution, were keeping the dandelions very short in their pasture, and the plan was conceived of letting them browse on the campus. The result is said to be proving very successful. The dandelions are being destroyed; the sheep make a pleasing picture, cropping on
the campus, which has an appeal to the aesthetic nature of many people; and wool and mutton are being raised as a by-product to the dandelion-exterminating industry.
It is expected that colleges all over the dandelion belt will now start buying sheep.
We would like to believe that those students who wear their fraternity pins in the center of their vests do so because they are not sure which side their heart is on and wish to play safe.
Hot weather is here and we find that many of the students have changed their places of study from a desk in an attic room to a comfortable seat in a canoe on the river.
JOURNALISM AT MINNESOTA
There is no department, not even a course in journalism at the University of Minnesota. After waiting patiently for the regents of the University to approve her, Ms. Dents themselves have gone about to start one. The men and women in separate groups have met to organize a temporary club which will later petition to become members of the nation's journalism fraternity and sorority.
Such action is especially commendable. Instead of fussing and knocking those interested have gone to work and organized to secure what they want. Of course usually the faculty and the board of administration start a new department, but they don't need it without a demand or need for it being shown. The students in Minnesota have shown this demand and have gone about it the right way with not only enthusiasm but common sense.

CAMPUS OPINION
You all know the things that have been said and done during the past two years, and I want you to stop and think about it. Put yourself in her place, if you can, or imagine what about your own mother. Of course, it is not so funny when it hits you, but as long as it is some one else, who has no chance to say or do anything in her own behalf, it's perfectly all right. Why don't you make sure that you can't talk to some or some of the other prominent people of the University? I have never heard anyone accuse them of being useless just because one doesn't happen to know everything that goes on in their private offices. Why should they be worried? It is no one's business what goes on in her office except hers. I know of a few things that she has done for the girls, and I know, too, that there is not another person here who loves young people better or not. Would you not want women? It is no one's business what goes on in her office except hers. I know of a few things that she has done for the girls, and I know, too, that there is not another person here who loves young people better or not. Would you not want women? It is no other woman in Kansas who is better known, or loved more throughout the state, than our own Adviser, and I think that it is up to the students of this University to do the right thing, and to give her the respect which is required. —Justice.
A FINE ARTS BUILDING Editor Daily Kansas;
things said about the adviser of women which are a positive disgrace
Yet the state of Kansas has burned her last bonds of indebtedness, and has been master.
At the Fine Arts Banquet last week, the slogan of "A New Fine Arts Building" came in for unanimous approval. And it should receive the undivided approval of all the students of the University, North College is a disgrace to the University. When visitors come to see the University, we point with pride to various parts of the campus. We point out the few of the many of us want to point to North College, and admit that it is the home of the School of Fine Arts.
Many of these organizations have a rightful place in our school life and the petty societies that spring up with them can be found in schools to stay while the narrow mind foundeders are on the Hill and then quietly pass into the deep seclusion from which they sprung, have no right to speak to or interact with the truly honorary societies.
ON JEWELLED VEST FRONTS
There is entirely too much secret society jewelry on the vests of the men of the University. The lure of dark scary creepy and the professed obedience to dust covered mediaeval ritualistic statutes has brought about the formation of too many Greek letter and similar societies. It is a fact that the University has been owned by University for four years and leaves it with an unweeded front.
—Interested.
MR. FACULTY MAN——?
Editor Daily Kansan:
I wish to take this opportunity to
that the University Club is
"atstiny."
To import a man from behind the lines—the biggest of the year, who alone out of the multitude of others, had a message from the European front that was not based on economic theory and personal opinion—to import him, I say, and then to hide him in the University Club out of the reach of 200 men who have made a study of international problems privately and through various organizations for self-sufficiency was the extreme limit of selfishness.
I might add that the Jurisprudence and International Polity clubs have made faculty members welcome to the best mirrors they have been able to secure.
—A Senior.
Permit me to register a protest against the failure of the Daily Kansan to chronicle in any way the games of the Hash House League this year. The organization has given the organization wide publicity. This year it has been wholly neglected. A few stories appeared at the time of formation. Since then students would have been unaware of the League's recent information on the Daily Kansan.
WANTED-A PRESS AGENT
At the same time games in both fraternity leagues have been well-presented. Why is this differentiation? Why are these League Games less important as just a interest?
The nature of the Hash House
greatly affected. It has suffered
grearly from this neglect.
It has also shown the inefficiency of the news staff of the Daily Kansan, in games. The Hash House League has not been treated at all justly.
-H. H. Leaguer.
In several of the Kansas colleges, the student body has set aside a day on which everybody is to "act natural." At Ottawa University the day was referred to as "Slouch Day." All natural deocrum with students every day wore the clothes in which he looked the best and felt the easiest.

CHEMALLURGIST OUT
Magazine is to be Published Monthly Next Year Whitaker
The "Kansan Chemalurgius" will be published next year according to Prof. W. A. Whitaker who had charge of the work on the paper this spring.
With its initial appearance yesterday the magazine became the first scientific magazine published by any department at the University of Kansas.
The top of the cover design which consists of the silhouette of a group of oil wells manufacturing smelters and ore refineries. It is typical of the industrial world, but also in the Chemical and Metallurgical fields. Just below this group is a row of ten hon-bonnes, a king of chemical jar or crucible used in the manufacture of chemicals. These are connected by goose-neck ties. The cover has a very interesting latter which helps to spell out the words: "The Kansan." The word Chemulmarger is rather unique in that the bottom of the letter M extends under the rest of the word in both directions.
The Kanasi Cheomalurgist has twenty-dour pages of reading matter. The magazine is typical of the field which it represents, as is also the name of the publication. Cheomalurgist uses words, "Chemist" and "Metallurgist."
Prof. William A. Whitaker, when asked this morning about the prospects of the magazine said: "We hope to continue the publication of the Kansas Chemallurgist next year. Owing to a few delays and difficulties we have been sitting out for this summer. However, if the proper amount of time can be put upon it next year, I look for it to become a decided success."
COMPANY "M" TO CHURCH
Will Pay Respects to Memory of Civil War Veterans
Company M of the National Guard together with all other military bodies will turn out Sunday to attend church in a body in honor of the men who lost their lives in the Civil War. Memorial Day will be observed in this way Sunday in practically all parts of the United States as a tribute to the men of '64. The men of the company will assemble at the Gymnasium and meet their best, and cleanest uniforms, where they will march to the church that has been selected as the one that will be attended this year.
They will be joined by Company B to the town men and the Hospital OPH
The men are not ordered to attend this meeting but with very few exceptions they all turn out to show their respect for the men who fought for the honor and maintenance of the United States.
On Tuesday the men will be ordered out for the Decoration Day parade to meet with the students given throughout the nation for the honoring of the veterans of the war.
PROF. NEVIN TO LECTURE
North Lawrence Interested in Choral Union
The last of the series of lectures by men of the faculty of the University to the people of North Lawrence will be given tonight at eight o'clock in the North Lawrence Christian church by Prof. Arthur Nevin. These lectures comprise a series of pieces of the Woodland Lecture Course in connection with the Woodland Night School held by men from the University during a part of this last winter for the people of the north side, some of whom have never had access to the important dojo by a school than the one afforded by this school.
The people of the north side are seriously planning for a choral union next winter and are anxious to hear what Professor Nevin has to say. They feel that they have material for a choir to be built upon him, upon Professor Nevin as being the logical man because of the successes that he has had elsewhere.
In furtherance of the musical spirit of the north side people Mayor Francisco has agreed to have several of the summer events held in the north side park.
Billy Sunday will deliver the commencement address at the Kansas City University, Kansas side, Wednesday morning. Commencement opened yesterday and will conclude with the conference of degrees and the alumni banquet.

The game Tuesday promises to be a close contest for the championship and both teams are confident of success with their wheels on the side. The Gradry nine won all of its games, four in number, while the Garrett club won four and two in that category, will be given a banquet by Mr. E. C. Bricken, proprietor of the Oread Cafe.
SPRAYING KILLS BIRDS?
Poisoned Canker Worms May Cause Many Deaths
C. D. Bunker, curator at Dyke Museum, is not sure that the poison used to spray the trees in the battle against the canker worm is killing the birds, as has been stated by a number of the enemies of the spraying process.
"Although many dead birds are found, and their stomachs contain little else than the worms, we have no way of finding out definitely that the poisoned worms have killed the birds," said Bunker this morning. "We would have to examine a good many birds, or cage some and feed them poisoned worms," he said. "I cannot do that, now because most of the worms have gone into the ground. Over on the corner of Henry and Ohio streets two dead cats were found on a lawn where dead birds were seen previous to the advent of the cats.

in both scholarship and other activities will be continued this year. We will be ready next week.
A letter was sent to each faculty member who has had any freshmen in his classes, requesting the names of those students who have special mention. The choice was to be made, so the letter read "not for mere faithful application, nor innate capacity, nor brilliance, but for a fair combination of all these qualities, which would lead one to believe there was future possibilities in these letters."
It is supposed that about ten per cent of the class will be included in this list, but the number of names
sent in by the instructors is subject to their own discretion.

OFF FOR TIGER MEET
Seventeen Jayhawkers to Missouri on Early Morning Train
TREWEEKE COULDN'T GO
Kansas Stands Poor Chance of Getting Better Than Second
Seventeen Jayhawk track speedsters accompanied by Coaches Hamilton and Patterson departed from Lawrence this morning on the eight o'clock mark. Where they will compete tomorrow in the annual Missouri Valley Conference track meet. The squad is scheduled to arrive in Tigerville on February 17 for campbell and O'Leary to run their heels in the quarter-mile trials.
**TREWEKEEN STAYS BEHIND**
With Dick Treweke behind the Kansas team, we'll about all chances of winning the meet for minus the Wichitan the Jayhawker team stands but little chance to get better than second in the Valley classics. Treweke was a sure first in the high jump and possibly the brook jump for the Kansas team. She dashes and hurdles Bob Simpson the Tiger phenom will be in little condition to do much effective broad jumping. As it is Wiley and the Nebraska star who broke the K.-U. N. U. dual record here several times, she will event with Grutzmacher and Sinpson running a close race for second place.
Despite the weakened condition of the Kansas队 K. U. stands a good chance to score almost forty points in the meet and with all the breaks might succeed in nosing out the Tigers. But the second half, the 220 yard dash, the low hurdles, first in the quarter, half, and mile, and second and third in the two mile, together with second in the two pole vault, the shot, are the points hopes to win.
KANSAS CAN SCORE
The seventen men who took the trip are: Capt. Bonnie Reber, Rodkey, Sproull, J. Campbell, O'Leary, Wiley, Wiler, William, Groene, Pattinson, F. Campbell, Rice, Miller, Herriott, and Grutzmacher.
Gifford Pinchot, Yale '89, has been awarded a medal by the National Academy of Sciences for distinguished public service in organizing and disciplining research activities and matric conservation of the natural resources of the United States.

Fredrick Stryker, '19, expects to go out on a prospecting our through Oklahoma and Texas. Eli F. Dorsely, '18, will work for Prof. A. H. Sluss of the department of mechanical engineering.
STUDENT PICTURES SHOWN
Fine Arts Painters to Display Canvas Work
Over two hundred paintings and designs by the special students in the School of Fine Arts will be on exhibit on the third floor of the Administration Building all through quiz week. The school will display heads to pictures of room interiors, and studies of still life. Two seniors, Ruth J. Kernode and Willa K. Schmidt have the largest number of paintings. Some, like Ker-na, are exhibited late in work at the Fine Arts Institute exhibit in Kansas City and several were sold.
Some of the best pictures are:
Elizabeth Ainsworth's fa'19, '19 snapdragons and geraniums in pastel;
Isabel Searles fa'19, '19 still life studies;
Alice Riee, fa'18, sketches of the hallway;

THE LIDS ARE GONE
The Buttons Shine No More— An Absent Feeling Not Akin to Pain
A peculiar psychological void a feeling of something missing of something dead and gone pervades the air. No one quite knows what it is but the feeling is there the same kind of a vacant feeling which graduates have the day they receive their sheepskins. What is the cause?
Stupid! Can't you see? Those tiny round discs touchered by a tiniest round of bright color which freshmen are wont to wear on their knowledge-splitting heads are gone. Never are students mytery afraid the upper classmien suffer from the cold north wind or something worse. Quiz week may be spent in peace.
Junk Herriott has proclaimed. The custom will henceforth and forever be—that freshman may lay aside their little relic of servitude on the last Friday before quizes. The reason for such a delay is that it serves because quiz week has its pleasures—which out of their kindness of heart upperclassmen do not wish to spoil, by forcing the issue of such weighty matters as a freshman cap.

How many summers have you folks who have had to stay here in Kansas had to swater in the Kansas sun? There wasn't really any reason why you should have suffered so much.
If your porch had been well shaded you would have been able to keep cool any time of day, and enjoy yourself while the sun was making things uncomfortable for your neighbor who was sitting in the shade, but getting the effects of the reflection of the hot rays on the side walk.
The "Aerolux" shades are light and easily handled, beautiful both from the inside and outside, and admit the light and breeze while shutting out the sunshine.
You have never known summer comfort if your porch has not been "Aeroluxed." And the Best of it is that "Aerolux" shades are inexpensive in every way—first cost is low, upkeep practically nothing, durable, and cheaply refinished when weathered. Let us show them to you.

And the fare—according to the latest reports, it's to be seventy-two cents. For a round trip, that makes one hundred and forty-four Lincolnes. In fact, it costs about three things holds you up for ninety-eight cents, or one hundred and ninety-six cents per round trip. Add to this ten cents for street car fares, and it costs you two hundred and six cents. Thus you take the interurban.
It is now understood that the K. U. Anti-Cigarette League passed several resolutions condemning this Satanic devise, because it makes access too difficult, in Valley of its efforts, the "Kaw Valley Line" starts running tomorrow!
18 CHANCES PER DAY
MORE RIDE FOR YOUR MONEY
Not only is all this true but
for the 144 cents you receive three
hours and forty minutes of ride, while
for the 166 cents you get only two
hours and a half. The Interurban
makes the trip in an hour and fifty
minutes, at a rate of 2 1-4 minutes per
cent, while the steam cars run it in
two hours and four minutes for
only 2-3 of a minute for each cent
invested. What is more valuable than
Time?
WILL CROSS RIVER SOON
The first car will arrive at 6:20 a.m. and leave at 6:40, and cars will run every hour until the 1:40 a.m. m. car, the last one to K. C. There is no room for them in the starting place is over by the U.P. depot; but as soon as the bridge is strong enough to bear up under the cars in addition to the weight of the vehicle, it now carries, you may start from in front of the Bowersock Theatre.
THORPE GETS OFFER
Year
Will Probably Edit "Nation's Business" Next
Prof. Merle Thorpe of the department of journalism has received an attractive offer from the United States Chamber of Commerce to edit their official publication, The Nation's Business, at a salary of approximately twice that which he receives here.
The Chamber of Commerce is planning extensive moves in the development of foreign trade. Mr. Thorpe's work will be largely stimulated by national and state departments which are closely connected, such as the Federal Board of Trade, the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, the National Banks, Pan-American Bureau, etc. Mr. Thorpe will not be a stranger in Washington as he was in newspaper work there in 1905, 1906, 1907.
Mr. Thorpe is considering this offer favorably as he feels the need of change of work. He has been teaching nine years and summers, and this opening will allow him what will be his year's research work in journalism.
NUMBER 162
Mr. Thorpe plans to return to Washington and New York next Wednesday, and will pass through Lawrence June 20, enroute to California, where he will lecture at the Session of the University of california.
If Mr. Thorpe accepts the offer, which is quite probable, he and Mrs. Thorpe will take up their residence in Washington about August 1.

TO WORK AND TO PLAY
Profs Have Divers Plans for Summer Months
Teaching Latin at both sessions of summer school will occupy the greater part of Prof. A, T. Walker's time this summer. After summer school is over Mr. Walker and his family are planning to go to Hubert, Minn.
Prof. Lewis E. Sisson, accompanied by his family, expect to leave Lawrence June 17 for Hamilton, N. Y., where they will visit relatives. Later in the summer they are to go to Northport, Mich.
Prof. E, W. Murray and Mrs. Murray will leave at once for Hubert, Minn., where they have spent their vacations, year after year, are building a new cottage there.
"I will teach German here the first six weeks," said Prof. E. F. Engel this morning, "and then my family and I will go to 'Engelheim' where I will work on a new course which I am going to offer next year."
Prof. Harry Palmbald and Mrs. Palmbald will leave at once for New York City. Professor Palmbald is to teach German at the University of Pittsburgh, and she says the expects to work on some of Strinberg's historical plays.
Helen R. Hoopes, instructor in English, will give a course of lectures on "Literature" at the Olathe Chauhouqu. Miss Hoopes has devoted her life to teaching the last three summers and reports that she enjoys the work very much.

NEW STAGE FOR PLAY
"Stuff of Laughter" to be Produced Next Week in Marvin Grove
PROVIDES A BETTER VIEW
Seats Will be Arranged for One Thousand Visitors
"The Stuff of Laughter" will be given Monday evening, June 5, in the natural amphitheater just east of the row of pines north of the Administration Building. The will be given at 8 o'clock under the auspices of the senior class. A general admission of 25 cents will be given to you and it will go to "the Student Loan Fund."
"The lights for the commencement performance will be better than the ones used at the May Fete production. Our electricians have profited by the success of their work," the performance will be furnished by the Shostac string quartet from Kansas City. Arthur Nevin, composer of the incidental music, will play on orchestra; and Henri Shostac, co-founder of the author, will play first violin."
Several changes will be necessary in the cast and ballet, though the substitutes have not yet been announced. Merle Smith, who played the part of the drunken lover, and Ray Gafney, one of the dancers, will be unable to appear in the commencement production.
"The new amphitheatre is much more comfortable and considerably larger than the one used at the time of its construction. Briggs, University Marshal this morning. We will put up a thousand folding chairs to accommodate the crowd. The elevation is much better than that of the old amphitheater; and every person in the audience will see how it is constructed观了 of the natural stage.

"Copping the Grapes," the senior play, may be given at the Bowersock under the management of Don Burry. After a long satisfactory substitutions can be made in the east, the matter is yet undecided. The production would be given as a matinee, probably on early afternoon of commencement week.
"SUNFLOWER" AGAIN
Willard Wattles' Book of Kansas Poems In Second Edition
Word has been received that "Sunflowers" Willard Wattles' book of Kansas Poems, is to have a second publication. The first edition was published in 1910 by poetry in and out of the state and it is upon recommendation of one of Kansas' best known writers that the book will be published the second time. Mr. Wattles has spent much time on the study of Kansas poetry from the early century days at U. has shown marked ability in the writing of poetry.
MUST MAKE ACCOUNTS
Mr. Wattles taught in the Massachusetts Agriculture College from 1011 to 1914. While in the East, and later, he has had over fifty poems published in the Springfield Republic. Nine of his poems were printed in Harper's Weekly and an equal number in the Smart Set. The American Magazine and the Christian Register also published a number of his verses. He has recently objected to the use of William Allen White, Hary-Kemp, and William H. Carruth to publish a collection of their religious poems with his own. Wattles is most interested in this phase of poetry.
In 1911 Mr. Ward sent to Watties asking him for some of his verse. One of the first of his poems to appear in the Independent was "Child". More than six other poems have appeared since in the Independent.
Mr. Wattles was encouraged by Prof. William H. Carruth, then head of the German department at the University of Kansas, to write poetry while he was a university. That was in 1906; and the year after Mr. Wattles had met Harry Kemp. He was helped in his work by Mr. Kemp. Wattles' first work appeared in the Kansas magazine, "The Prairie," and he had printed the "Prairie Wind."
In 1911, "Songs From the Hill", a collection of poems by Kansas verser writers, was printed in book form. The author of several other writers who have made good since, had selections in this book. William H. Ward, for fifty years editor of the Independent morgans, favorably reviewed this collection.

Those Who Handle Student Funds Shall Answer for Them
MAY WITHOLD DEGREES
Board of Administration to Take Definite Steps
"Drastic action on the part of the Board of Administration will be necessary unless the officers of the various organizations who handle student funds make a satisfactory report to the auditing committee of all student colleges." This statement given out by Registrar George O. Foster this morning.
SAY 'WE' will be done.
"What we will do when in regard to the accounts has not been definitely decided, but it is probable that the degrees of those who turn in unsatisfactory accounts, or no accounts at all, will be withdrawn until the definite facts concerning the handling of funds can be found out."
MAY WITHOLD DEGREES
"There is absolutely no excuse for the carelessness in the keeping of the accounts there has been this year. The organizations were all of them who had to get the books and to learn how to keep them, and they were warned through the Kansan columns and by other means that they would be brought to account at the end of the year if the business did not kept in a business like manner.
"While there is not enough evidence to prove crookedness in most cases, and there are so many accounts not written about it that nothing stands. The University of Kansas should aim to give a young man an education in honesty in business, and letting the student accounts go hand-in-hand with the carelessness in handling accounts.
"The accounts of the band, the orchestra, glee clubs, athletic association and the debating council are audited by the state auditor, so there is no chance for the juggling of funds in those organizations.
"The great trouble with students is that they fail to get definite receipts for money spent, and to give receipts for money received. Some accounts come in to us with just two figures on the books—receipts, so much, and expenditures, so much. This is not easy to see, but you must know some drastic steps will have to be taken to secure more careful handling of student funds. The treasurer of any organization should not feel that it is an intimation against his honesty to have his books audited. You may also want them as well as for the safety of others.
"Definite steps will be taken before the meeting of the board next week."

Much Interest Has Been Shown In New Athletic Association
17 NOW HAVE CRIMSON A's
Next Year's Plans Include a Co-ed Track Meet
The woman's department of physical education has been doing things the past year, years never tried before at the University of Kansas.
sical education has b hing the past year, things never tern be before college. Kansas The Women's Athletic Association was organized in November, when it was seen that there was a strong desire for organized athletics amng women. The organization has grown since then. The team will Hill that it promises to be permanent. The influence of this new organization is not purely local; it has been felt throughout the state. This was shown when the committee of the athletic Ass-ment arranged an entire enthrallment of the annual basketball tournament of high school girls, representative of schools from the whole state. The members of the association officiafied at every game and placed the team on the court during their stay in Lawrence.
75 POINTS WINS CRIMSON A
DEVELOPED MERMAIDS
Every form of athletics open to women was introduced in K. U., and in order to give the individual athlete some distinction, an award of merit was given annually to those qualified, and enrolled in active work, who won seventy-five points. In March, eighteen awards of merit, a large crimson A with smaller blue K. U. letters across it, were presented to her by senior, junior, and sophomore classes.
The swimming tournament held May 18 demonstrated the progress made in swimming and fancy diving, with both events being represented. The sophomore class won the meet by six points. A splash party was one of the unusual and exciting events of the year. Forty two swimmers among the women attended.
Archery, the medieval sport, has been revived at K. U., and has no end of enthusiastic followers. At the tournament held May 24, Ellen Edmondson, c18 won the trophy cup given by Allie Carroll.
More than one hundred young women entered the round robin tennis meet; the finals have not yet been plaved.
The indoor work of the gymnasium affords a variation to suit any and all. Wand, dumb-bell and Swedish work are popular among the freshmen, dancing and folk dancing prove equally popular in the upper classes.
Members of the faculty and wives of faculty members have meet in the gymnasium, swimming and floor work are open to them Monday evening of every week. The class is in charge Elliot, instructed in the department.
That the work in physical education is well known over the state and well received is proved by the number of requests Dr. Goetz has had for teachers of physical education in many high schools of Kansas.

W.S.G.A.MAKES REPORT
Middy Dances and May Fete Help Fill the Coffers
YEAR HAS BEEN SUCCESS
Date Rule Changed to Longer Hours
What is the real significance of the Women's Student Government Association of the University? The aim of the Association is "to foster among women a feeling of mutual responsibility and high regard for liberty and freedom" and to "assure the hearts of living and scholarship and promise loyalty to the University."
Lawrence is divided into thirteen districts. Over each district is a chick-fil-a restaurant or a district. The purpose of the organization is to foster good fellowship among the women and have a means for them. Women may be reached easily and quickly.
Another benefit to the University is the giving of a scholarship to the most worthy women needing assistance. A scholarship is chosen by a scholarship committee composed of faculty members, appointed by the W. S. G.
Middy dances have been given several times during the year, at their expense. These were held to meet the friendly nature and friendship among the women.
The Association sent the president-elect, Mona Clare Huffman, as a delegate to Lincoln, Nebraska, to the conference of Women Student Government Associations of the Middle West, at which fifteen Universities and Colleges were represented.
A change in the date rule was made during the year, by the women of the University upon the suggestion of the Student Council. This date rule which was stricty 10:30 on all Sundays was changed to a dance, was lengthened to 11 on Friday and Saturday and decreased to 10 on Sunday.
The Association is 'composed of women taking an active interest in student life, and other student activities and are required to permit. Every woman, as soon as she enrolls in the University automatically becomes a member. The organization supports the woman, and this money helps to defray the expenses of the organization.

MONEY IN KANSAS CLAY
Geologists Show Industrial Possibilities of Native
Soil
Clay, the ordinary yellow and gray clay that is so abundant in Kansas is worth millions of dollars, according to Prof. Erasmus Haworth of the department of Geology. In the University one department is doing much toward the wealth that Kansas is to realize the wealth that is stored up in the back yards.
The clay laboratory is one of the least known of the important branches of the University that does service work for the citizens of Kansas, Massachusetts, and Haworth Hall, it is often not noticed at all by the ordinary passbyer. Yet here in the rear of Haworth Hall, an analyst is daily testing and burning various samples of clays from all sources to determine their fitness for pottery or brick.
FIND RICH OPPORTUNITIES
Few fields of natural resources in Kansas have been richer in opportunities for investigation and research than the clays. Since 1911, the year when the laboratory was erected, the diversity has been engaged in this work.
An exhibit of some of the products that have been obtained from samples of Kansas clays is found in a case in the entrance to Haworth Hall. These products are largely brick of Kansas clay, but one exhibit of what can be obtained from other Kansas clays is found in the entrance to Dyche Museum. These samples of Kansas clay products consist of an assortment of pottery of different shapes and uses. These latter were made students in the School of Arts.
KANSAS CLAY EQUAL TO ANY
KANSAS CLAY EQUAL TO ANY
The clays of several counties have been
formed by the interaction of face brick and building brick of several kinds. There are some kinds of enameled brick made in other states that are worth fifty or sixty dollars a thousand for the manufacture of which clay is used that are the equal of those other states.
Another example of the work that the clay laboratory is doing for the state is found in a test of some samples of clays that were sent in from Hoisington. The sample was dug up in the backyard of a railway man's cottage and it was found that it would make pottery that was exceptionally fine.
The clays of Ottawa county have been found to be available for making tile and building brick. Also the clays that are found around the brick plant at Lawrence have been found to be of value in the manufacture of drain tile.
MORE RESOURCES SCARCELY TOUCHED
The samples of clays from the western and southwestern parts of the state. At present most of the brick and clay-products industry of Kansas is concentrated in the eastern half of the state, while the clay industries of Kansas in the western part of the state. The value of the clay products of the state for an average year is about two million dollars, and the resources of Kansas in the way of clays have scarcely been
A course in design is given in the School of Fine Arts to those who wish to specialize in the artistic treatment of clays in the manufacture of pottery. At present there are several young women enrolled in the course. Their work is in the department of the art Hall. The laboratory is equipped with kihas, the necessary throw wheels and other equipment for carrying on the work.
On the second floor of the laboratory are the offices of Paul V. Teetor, clay analyst in charge of the work, and the laboratory for chemical analysis of the samples sent in from over the state.
PLAYGROUND CRAZE STRUCK BIRDVILLE Second Ward Installs Fountain.
Secoped again! The Daily Kansan is ready to give up in despair, and is thinking seriously of discharging all of its eyeless, earless and noseless (as far as the nose for news goes) on his wounds. He is in that robin red breasts and jenny wrens are considered unusually inquisitive and progressive sorts of persons, and rather small at that, but this time! It took the piercing cliffs of the canyon and the days and the disturbing pounding of the woodpeckers to call the attention of that blind, and deaf individual known as a Kansan reporter.
The fact as it was finally discovered was that another structure of cement for the express purpose of drawing and enticing winged creatures to its cool waters had been crested just west of Green Hall. The class of 1000 beetles in the building things up brown, and fearing for the congested quarters in the fountain east of Fraser, put up another, so that birds living in the west end of the campus need not go too far from home to take their morning plunge.

HARVARD HAS TROUBLES
KANSAS DOESN'T KNOW
The Harvard Crimson vindicates student interest in the election of the overseers of the university by an editorial protesting against the "over-representation of the capitalists among the nominees," and appealing for the choice of men "as nearly representative of all classes as possible." Here is evidence that the great majority of whom are men are bounded with large corporations is disturbing even to undergraduate. So far as the students take an interest in the board, they like to feel that all the principal professions and callings for which they are training are represented; that each has its particular spokesman, the honor and delivery of being an overseer are not conferred almost exclusively on alumni who engage in business. They have a sense that the well rounded development of the university is likely to be better furthered by a well rounded board. This feeling the Crimson explicitly asserts, declaring that Harold Manser's college and that it is, "above all, cosmopolitan in character." This appeal ought to have some effect upon the election now only a few weeks away.
K.N.G.UP TO STANDARD
Federalization Will Mean No Change in Company M Says Capt. F.E. Jones
"The reorganization of the militia under the Hay-Chambleainbail bill will not upset us any here in Kansas" said Capt. F. E. Jones this morning when asked about Secretary Baker's intention of reconstructing the National Guards, as soon as the bill is signed by President Wilson.
Ranas has been ahead of the rank and file of the states for a number of years in keeping her militia up to standard." Captain Jones continued. "The physical standard has never been lowered." Company M passed the regular examination, so that none of them will be thrown on that score.
“Practically the only effect locally will be to raise the pay of men according to regular schedule. Privates will receive $45 a year for drill and captains $500; others will receive payment according to rank. The captains personally responsible for all the government equipment used by the company. Payments will be made twice a year. Of course, if called into service the men will be paid by the day according to the service pay schedule. Pay for what is supposed to be one of what a man would get were in actual service.”
"You hear people say," he said, "that every man will have to take the oath of allegiance to the president of the state. You must attend when he joins the state company."
As far as the so-called "federalization of the state militia" is concerned that is already provided for, according to Captain Jones.
The oath says in part, “ . . . I do solemnly swear that I will support, protect and defend the constitution and government of the United States . . . against all enemies, whether domestic or foreign; . . . and that ! observe and obey the orders of the president of the United States. . .”
One of the best chemical libraries between the Mississippi River and the coast, the result in part of the work of Prof. F. B. Dalas, can be found on the third floor of the Chemistry building. The library has grown since 1911 from a small room containing 1855 volumes to a collection of 2,800 books
"In fact, we have anticipated to a large extent the recent demands of the federal government, so that there will be little reconstructing to ca in Kansas.
Now One of Largest in West— and Still Growing
CHEM LIBRARY GROWS
The appropriations for the current year are larger than those of any previous year, $700 having been expended in place of $300 or $400 in former years. The increase in the number of books and periodicals has occasioned frequent moving of the rooms; the usual room now it occupies Room 310, a large room on the third floor of the Chemistry Building.
The department of chemistry was the first to have an independent departmental library. In 1900, it was situated in a small room in the north west corner of Medical Hall, above the present Kansan offices. There was but one book-case, holding a few volumes, the most important of which contained much of Chemistry. A careful collecting of standard works soon caused the library to be moved to more commodious quarters in the Chemistry Building.
NEW NORTH COLLEGE?

Fine Arts School Growing Too Fast for Present Quarters
Beside giving students free access to all books, the library also sends out lists of the volumes and periodicals found in the library from out by mail to nearby institutions.
The greatest growth made by any department of any of the state schools has been made this year by the University School of Fine Arts at Lawrence. When Dean H. L. Walker, then chairman of the school, the total enrollment for the year was 197. The enrollment for the year just closing shows a gain of over 26 per cent. Nearly all of this gain now being 249. Nearly all of this gain was made in the second semester of 2015 by students entered the Fine Arts courses.
Dean Butler in speaking of this growth said, "The School of Fine Arts has always had a very fine faculty, and very strong and well-co-ordinated teachers. They are known throughout the state. During the winter just past I have been in
Should we have a like growth next year, North College will be unable to accommodate the students who will come to us. Already we are crowded to the limit. I have no studio, and do nearly all of my own teaching at North College. We occupy one studio. Professor Skilton's classes in Theory and History, and Professor Downing's classes in Ear Training and Sight Singing can not be accommodated in the recital hall of North College. Judging from my correspondence this spring, we must take up the Summer School, and a still greater number for the opening of College next fall."

As soon as the fact that he was not hurt was known the affair showed up and the crowd enjoyed a laugh at Henderson's impromptu flight.

Professor Flint Looks for Big Reunion Commencement Work
Week
One of the big features of commencement week will be the reunion of alumni to be held Thursday, June 12, at the University of North Carolina and Prof. L. N. Flint, secretary of the alumnium committee, is figuring on having fourty-four classes represented. The reunions are held every three months; the program is arranged for each class.
"The classes of '81, '86, '91, 1906, 1911, 1914 and 1915 have surprised us with their enthusiasm and reply that they will show 1916 the old time 'pep' when they show up to review old times," said Professor Flint.

Just now the silk department on the Grand Avenue Floor is a riot of color—sports silks being much in evidence. In the next aisle summer goods drape clouds of snowy whiteness over the counters.
Shop through the Walnut Street Store for Men where proper apparel for the man is a study carefully thought out.
Browse among the Books on the Walnut Street Floor. You will see them temptingly arrayed in such a manner that you may find just what you want.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture a university of Kansas; to go further than merely printing deals the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; to enable the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON MAY
Newspaper reports say that Henry Ford may return to Europe. Probably to sell enough jitneys to pay for the peace expedition.
THE BOOK STORE.
After several years of waiting, K. U. is to have one of the benefits from which other universities have profited—a co-operative book store. There is no question as to the feasibility of such a store. It is for the students and the faculty and they will be the ones to receive its benefits. The faculty will be the stockholders but the store is primarily for the students, as they are the largest purchasers of books.
Students have paid large amounts for books in past years and although their money has gone to keep up good book stores, they have come to realize that they could as easily sell the books and receive their share of the profits. It is the same idea that has lead to the formation of other co-operative institutions and it is bound to prove successful.
Next year the total purchases of students, of twenty-five cents and over, will form a basis for a per cent of the dividends, which they will receive, at the end of the year.
Guarding one's speech is hard. Guarding one's thought, action, and written word is still harder. James W. Gerard, American ambassador to Berlin, is truly in a difficult position. A misstatement might act as the spark that would start an immense malignant flame. Since his appointment July 13, 1913, Mr. Gerard has not held an enviable position but at present his place is the extreme of hazardousness.
Truly variety is the spice of life! A university woman's hat contains the following impediments: one bunch of plums, one bunch of strawberries, one peach, one bunch of currants, one more or less green apple, and one spray of cherries.
LETTING IT SLIDE
How easy it is to cuss that clock and take another cut. How easy it is to "kid" oneself into believing all will be well, and the present—well, that is built for pleasure. How easy it is to misjudge the inevitable march of time.
Students come and students go, but few escape the tantalizing desire to permit their performance to be just a little less than their best and endeavor to quiet their slothful consciences that they are doing honest work. This influence, so common to the modern school, is a unique product of college life. It is a queer condition—this Ease in Zion attitude, and it causes us to do peculiar things in the name of Duty. Yet who can point to a single influence that has had a more profound effect upon his college career than this wait-till-tomorrow feeling?
Students should be forming habits of life at the college age. But what do they form? Do they learn to appreciate the underlying flavor of work? Does Dad's honest cash bring
in an honest reward? Or does the Plodding Son return to his native town with a sweet sense of superiority to the man in the blue jeans and a slothful mentorship to "hitting the ball." Not all of us learn the trick of letting it slide. But are you, Mr. Student, the common example or are you the shining exception?
THE NARROW LIFE OF THE COLLEGE STUDENT
Commenting upon the narrow life of the college student, David Lee Clark, of the faculty of the University of Maine, shows that the average student goes in for the things that are intensely of his college and prepares himself for intellectual development which has to do with the world in which he is preparing to live. While Prof. Clark is speaking of the eastern university it need not be pointed out that the same condition prevails, probably to a lesser degree, at the University of Kansas. His communication, which was printed in a recent issue of the New York Times for the fourth edition and deserves the attention of every student in the University. It follows;
"I came out of school," writes Randolph S. Bourne in The New Republic of Feb. 27, 1915, "with no connected sense of my country's history or that of any other, and no sense of the world in which I had been living and had to live. I had learned to read and write and spell. I had learned to read and write, eliminating the classics, and had a distant relationship with the Old World. On political fact, personalities, foreign wars, around me—no school subject had thrown any light. My real education, as I look back on it, consisted in my own effort to make some sort of order out of the chaos of events in our home. That this effort had to be made outside the school seems to me now a sad waste of energy on the school's part."
It seems to me that with slight modifications this may be said of our colleges as well. Here, indeed, is a problem for the college to reckon with. Something must be done in order to make such a change made to meet this deficiency in our college training. Perhaps the most important step toward a solution is the recognition of its existence on the part of both Faculty and student. The coursework required is limited to any section of the country or to any kind of college.
Just how young college men—who perhaps more than any other class of young Americans have the greatest opportunities for knowing these things—can hold themselves so aloof from the big, living world, compartmentalized apart and stand especially when we realize that we are living in the most tremendous age of the world's history. I wish it to be known that I am referring to the average undergraduate, and not to those hundreds and thousands of wide-awake, ambitious students who are destined to become college men, in terms of activity. I refer to the great mass of college men who not only have very little knowledge of their country's history and the political and social movements of the present day, but are actually indifferent to such knowledge. Time and again we know that college men can be the college man for his negligence in this respect, for they contend that education divorced from the activities of the world, the realities of life, is a very narrow education.
places the college on the defensive. During the last three or four years I have given general information tests to my students, including freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors, to acclimatize to what extent the average graduate is intelligent reader of daily papers, weedles, and monthly magazines, and if possible, to create an interest in current events. The general information tests appearing annually in The Independent are excellent for this purpose. The test of 100 questions in that week of March 8, 1915, I gave to my students, with the student answers 30 per cent. The general average was below 12 per cent.
This sort of attitude undoubted,
places the college on the defensive
But the difficult question is, How can we relate college to national interests? At least some progress has been made by forming discussion leagues. These leagues are voluntary as to membership and attendance; the discussions are led by a member of the Faculty, and all important event events in history, science, and literature are held at these students. The chief objection to this plan lies in the fact that those who least need such instruction are the ones who attend. Perhaps the most successful plan yet tried is the use of standard periodicals, such as The Atlantic Monthly, The Nation, The Independent, and The New Republic, in connection with courses in English literature, politics, history, etc. But there can be no complete satisfactory solution of this problem so long as the chief interest of the student is in the athletic and the social rather than the intellectual, side of the college.

THE ANSWER:
What is the dollars and cents value of attending a Summer Session at the University of Kansas?
PROOF:
The University Summer Session is worth more than a job paying you $1,000 for the summer.
The average man who has graduated from college earns more than $4,000 a year when he is forty-five years old. (See the recently published Kansas Engineer and the Literary Digest for Feb. 3,1912.)
The man who spends three years in college instead of four, has one more year in life in which to earn this annual income of $4,000. In other words, if it takes a college graduate twenty years to reach his maximum earning capacity, then the one graduating at the age of twenty-three will reach it at forty-three while the man who saved a year of college time and graduated at twenty-two will reach it at forty-two. Thus the man who attended summer sessions will have earned exactly as much by the time he is forty-two as the other man will have earned by the time he is forty-three. If both men retire at sixty, the summer session man will have had eighteen years of maximum annual income, while the other man will have had but seventeen years of maximum income, a difference of $4,000 between the two men. Thus the value of a year of time during college age should be figured on the basis of what the man will earn in a year when at his maximum earning power. A year saved, then is worth $4,000 to the average college man.
If a year saved is worth $4,000, then a summer saved is worth one-third of $4,000 or $1,333.
Making reasonable deductions for interest on money earned during vacations, it is conservative to state that a man who must earn less than $1,000 a summer uses bad business if he works for wages instead of continuing his education.
Tradition and not sound judgment is mainly responsible for our customs of attending college but three quarters of the year.
What do you think about it?

A WEEK OF ATHLETICS
Tennis, Track and Baseball All Have a Part in Closing Days' Activities
The Kansas Aggies are playing K. U. on Mcook Field in the first game of the final series in the Valley conference. The conference title is at stake, and Kansas will have to win it. The team has an order to keep Missouri from winning the championship. Should Kansas win the two games this week the season my be prolonged a week. A deciding basketball series was played by Kansas with Nebraska in 1913 but not in 2015. The ball. The team is anxious to clinch the Valley title and is willing to stay over for a week for the opportunity.
The trip to Des Moines last week gave McCarty a bunch of cripples to work with for the Aggie games. George Smee was hit in the side while sliding into second base in the second Ames game and was unable to finish. Connie Poierier, the third Kansas pitcher, is out for the remainder of
the season. He was pitching a fine game against Highland Park College in Des Moines Saturday afternoon when a “hot one” hit his pitching hand, splitting it to the pitcher and Red Craig to the kickoff. The ish the season for the Kansas team. He will be on the mound this afternoon and hopes to win the first game without much effort in order to repeat in tomorrow's game also. Last year he won two straight games and he will get his chance to “back” again this week.
K. U, IS IN THE RING
Five track men will leave Lawrence tomorrow night to represent Kansas in the Western Conference meet at Chicago, Saturday afternoon. The men who will take the trip are: Captain Reber, Rodkey, Sproull, Treweeke, and Grutzmacher. The Western Conference meet is the biggest intercollegiate travel game in history, and selection of the five men for the trip was made after the Missouri Valley Conference meet in Columbia Saturday. Captain Reber has broken both K. U. records in the weight events, and he should be able to take a second to Arlie Mucks, the star weight heavier
of the country. Fred Rodkey will be able to run in spite of an injury which he received in his race Saturday. Trewehoven has given his strained leg a rest for a couple of weeks already. He leaped over the bar at the 5 feet 9 inch mark yesterday with no apparent strain on the bruised muscles. Sproull will have a chance to trot along after one of the men in the country when he enters the mile run with Mason of Illinois.
THEATRE VARSITY Program for Remainder of Week
With Teachoner and Cowill playing in excellent form, Kansas won the Missouri Valley Tennis Championship at Des Moines last week. Teachoner won the singles by defeating, in succession, Ellis of Nebraska, Loomis of Missouri, and Williams of Missouri. Cowill was defeated in the second round by Loomis of Nebraska. The Kansas outplayed the Missouri and Drake teams with ease, but met defeat by the strong Nebraskans. The match went to the limit, five sets. The score was 3-6, 6-3, 8-6, 0-6, 3-1.

"Where Discriminating People Dine"
Bulletin No. 2
Why We Are Opposing A Government Armor Plant
To the People:
Some people say that the very fact that the Bethlehem Steel Company is so aggressively fighting the proposal to build a Government armor plant is conclusive proof that the Company is seeking to assure for itself the "vast profits" derived from private manufacture.
The fact is that armor making is the least profitable feature of steel manufacture.
* *
The reason we oppose a Government plant is very simple. It is this:
Even though there is but little profit in the making of armor, we have invested over $7,000,000 in our armor plant;
That plant is useless for any other purpose; if a Government plant is built the usefulness of our plant is destroyed.
It would be good business for us to make armor for the Government at any price over and above the actual shop cost, RATHER THAN SACRIFICE OUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
To do that, we are prepared to agree for any period to any terms of manufacture which the Federal Trade Commission shall say absolutely protects the Government of the United States.
We do not seek to save big profits; our purpose is very frankly to save our armor plant—itself built solely for the use of the Government—from going to the scrap heap.

University Health is Protected by Hospital and Corps of Competent Physicians

Sundwall Points Out That Other Universities are Higher
The activities of the University of Kansas Health Service have been organized into three groups and a diagram showing the different phases of the work being done. The general activities include instruction, sanitation, and supervision.
Since the purpose of the department is to safeguard the health of the students, and the committee is agreed that to prevent body disorders is easier than to cure them, the students are instructed in hygiene and nutrition instruction are used to disseminate knowledge relative to health. Attendance at one semester of hygiene lectures is now required of all students.
WATCH LAWRENCE WATER Under the head of inspection comes the work of examining all drinking water, and of the hygienic regulation
of boarding and rooming houses and th ecampus buildings. Both of these activities are carried on in connection with the State Board of Health.
Supervision consists of the personal examination of all students and the giving of medical advice. The Isolation Hospital, the Students' Hospital, the Emergency Department, the Stium are at the service of all students. The members of the University Health Service, who are: Doctors Sundwall, Crumbine, Goetz, Matthews, Naismith and Professor Haskins, may be consulted during their respective off-hours in hospitals and dispensary are under the supervision of competent nurses.
CO-OPERATE WITH PHYSICIANS
Under supervision comes the work of the department in co-operating with local physicians. Physicians other than those provided by the Unit of Faith Service have access to all facilities of the hospital and dispensary.
If the patient admits any preference as to physicians every effort is made to secure the one he prefers. The doctor should have the versatility Health Service do not accept fees. They are paid by the state and serve on the committee for the supervision of the health of the student physician in the purpose of practising medicine for fees.
The physical defects discovered by the committee are brought to the no-

the hospital and dispensary, and the treatment of students have aroused more unfavorable criticism than the other more important phase of medical education; measures for the enforcement of health regulations a fee is indispensable. When compared with the fee paid by students at many similar institutions the $2.00 fee. . . is small. The average cost of the Harvard, Stanford, Iowa, and Michigan, $4.00; Texas $5.00; and Cornell and California $6.00.
Approximately 5,000 visits have
been made outside the hospital the past year and there have been 56 hospital patients; fifteen cases of a gripe; five cases of appendicitis, measles, and tonsilitis; three operations; two cases of mumps and bronchial pneumonia; and one case of chicken pox, glossitis, and small pox. The hospital has maintained its capital since its installation last fall. The hospital has saved many students the cost of a night call from a doctor.

K. U. STUDENTS:
Those exams are almost over and you will be leaving for home this week-end. If you change at Kansas City or want to go to a good park, spend a day shopping, or visit with a friend, you can get to the city speedily and comfortably on the new interurban.
SENIORS:
The folks will be coming up next week to see you get that degree. Most of them will change cars at Kansas City. Don't let them lay over half the day there in ignorance of the fact that they can catch the interurban for Lawrence every hour. Write home tonight, and tell them to go from the Union Station to the corner of Tenth and Main, get on a car at the half hour and ride directly to Lawrence, getting here in an hour and fifty minutes from the time they leave the city.
The first car leaves Lawrence tomorrow moring at 6:40, arriving in Kansas City at 8:30.
