F. R. Hamilton, director of the Short Course advises the merchants to come Monday if they can only come one day. At the end of this first day he predicts that most of the merchants will telephone back that they are going to stay for the remainder of the week.
HAVE TWO SEMESTERS
A return to the old two-s semester school year from its present three- semester is embodied in the calendar for the State Agricultural College at Manhattan, recently published for the year 1917-18.
Aggies Incorporate Plan Similar to K. U.'s
The change is for the greater convenience of high school teachers, who form the bulk of the summer enrollees. The schools of the state. A six weeks summertime program provided. The new calendar provides that the school year shall begin the second Monday in September every year, and that the first semester shall begin on Saturday of the eighteenth week after the first Monday in September.
NOTED ART EDUCATOR
LECTURES HERE TONIGHT
This change in the calendar of the Agricultural College makes the school year there coincide with that at the State University, but, this change comes at a time when the faculty of K. U. is considering a four-quarter, twelve months school year for the University.
Prof. A. C. MacDougall, one of the prominent music educators in this country, will lecture tonight in Fraser Hall, and Mr. MacDougall will also though Mr. MacDougall is a composer and organist of high rank, he is best known as a music critic. He has made lecture tours throughout the United States; this is his second visit to Kansas.
His lecture on "Wagner and his Music" is one that he has given many times before student bodies of American universities. As Professor Macaw it is brought here by the School of Fine Arts, no admission will be charged.
Receives New Lah Equipment
Receives New Lab Equipment A new laboratory table for plant chemistry and two new tables for plant pathology with several other applications. The plant physiology room in Snow Hall. Since the new equipment has been added, the plant physiology laboratory is one of the best in the department of botany, according to Dr. Charles A. Shull of that department.
Grades Out Next Week
Grades will not be given out until some time next week was the word given out this morning by George O. Foster, registrar. All of the grades have not been turned in and it usually is ten days after a semester is ended before all of the grades are reported to the registrar's office.
CITY REFERENCE BUREAU
ANSWERS MANY QUESTIONS
The Municipal Reference Bureau of the University, which gives advice to towns and cities on street lighting, walks, water, sewage disposal and other public questions and utilities, has had a busy month in December with 14,000 residents having palities in Kansas and twelve other states. New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, and Texas made the largest number of requests for information.
Fifty-two fields were covered in the work of the bureau during the month. Most of the requests concerned pavilion annexation of territory, and municipal light and water works plants. Seventy-six inquiries were answered.
MODERN SCHOOLS ARE DIFFERENT
Dr. G. D. Strayer Tells Par Played by Society in Educational Institutions
Taking for his subject, The Modern School, Dr. G. D. Strayer, head of the department of school administration at Columbia University, spoke to audience in Prasen Hall, at four-thirty o'clock yesterday afternoon.
What present day society demands of the modern educational institutions Dr. Strager treated at some length. Efficiency, he claims, is what the people are asking of the schools today.
"Many students cannot grasp abstract things and are unable therefore to take up the professions. Sufficient preparation, however, along with proper training in trade would make such students capable of carrying on their life work.
"The present day institutions of learning," Dr. Strayer said in part, "are radically different from the traditional schools of the past. Our problem being not to educate all students along the same line, but to give each that learning, that will best fit him for his life work.
"It is necessary that the difference in children should be recognized, and each student should follow that line in which he is the most proficient."
Dr. Strayer is one of the best authorities in America on school administration. He has written several books on educational problems.
HOW TO FIND OUT IF
SHE'S GOT A DATE
Without Letting Her Know.
Frater (calling up for a date):
"One-two-four, please. Hello, is Josephine there? May I speak to Josephine, How are you? You're well." How are you? You're well?
That's fine. Do you know who this is talking? You don't. Well, that sure makes me mad. It seems to me after you have lived in the same place, but it took an awful fail to find out. Say, who are you going to the dance with Friday night? Oh! I wanted to know so I could get a dance with you. You know I would rather舞 with you than most any boy. You're lucky man. Well, I'll see you Friday night. Be good. Good beye."
Frater then proceeds to call up another girl.
WOMEN BASKETEERS WILL MEET POLYTECH TEAM

Dr. Rooseboom Scourges Teutons' Policies, Before Politty Club
BERATES GERMAN WAR MEASURES
WAS HUMOR AND PATHOS
Lecture Told of Comic and
Troubled Side of
War
Tragic Side of
That Germany not only broke her promises made to Belgium, but that she never intended to keep them, was the declaration of Dr. M. P. Rooseboom, of Halland, assistant secretary of the Court of Arbitration, at the Hague, before the International Polity Club at the Pi Upsilon house last evening.
"Strictly I am not neutral," said Doctor Roosebom, who has travelled through the warring nations on diplomatic missions, "but I try to be impartial and look for the facts. Of what use are international contracts intended to be kept? Even now, Germany is ready for new submarines, ready for business. When they will be let loose, I do not know."
FOR two hours Doctor Roosebom told of the war of wars he had seen it, having been in Belgium at the outbreak of war in 1914. The panic that seized the fleeing inhabitants as the Germans invaded Belgium; how false German news reported had poisoned the minds of German soldiers against the Belgians; the drunkenness among German offenders pretexts upon which whole towns were wiped out of human misery flowing into Holland—all these were pictured by Doctor Roosebom.
"Germany, in her heart of hearts, never wanted war," explained the doctor, in referring to the mass of German people. "If half the diplomats and newspaper men were fascinated that speedily come." The horrors of war still enshrined in spite of official ukases that such would not be attempted, and the electrified barb-wire wall built by Germans on the Dutch-Belgian frontier, were among the late phases touched. German students are learning Span- to be ready to make a run for South American trade after the war is over.
TELLS BELGIAN OUTRAGES
RELATED INCIDENTS
Humor was not absent. The doctor related how a Ford was taken from him by German officers and later released, and how thirty starved cats flocked around his car in a Belgian town. The speaker's foreign accent and gentlemanly bearing were augmented by a desire to use American expressions. He would say, "Skidoo you when everybody laughed, would ask, 'Why,' to can?' Although he is a pacifist, he says Holland is not "too proud to fight," holding 472,000 troops in readiness.
Doctor Rooseboom has been in America only three months. He is visiting here, as he says, "to complete my international education."
The date set for the play, "Under over, which is to be given by the bride," is
"UNDER COVER" WILL BE PRESENTED FEBUARY 29
Professor MacMurray, director of the play, said this morning that nothing is being left undone in an effort to make the production one of the best ever offered by the club. Some of the most experienced talent on the HIL make up the cast. Ada Dykes, 147, the leading lady. Miss Dykes has had induction plays given on the Hill. Otto Dittmer, 147, another of the leading characters, is playing in his third college play.
The Weir City School of Mines will live. This was assured yesterday by the defeat, in the committee on educational institutions, of a bill introduced by Representative Sellards, abolishing the School of Mines and transferring the equipment to the department of mining engineering at the University of Utah, dead unless it is taken up by the House and over the adverse report of the committee, a move which is considered improbable.
John M. Shea, superintendent of grounds and buildings, believes a man is discharging his full duty to society this kind of weather when he keeps himself warm. "No," said Mr. Shea, "we are not doing any building while the mercury does the shy, retiring stunt. My ambition doesn't reach that high. We recently completed a small shed for drying lumber, but aside from that construction has been decidedly slack."
John M. Reflects on Duty
School of Mines Will Live
PUT INCOME BILL UP TO SENATE
Permanent Income for State Institutions Would Result from Constitutional Amendment
Supported by All State Schools in Record Campaign
ENDS TWO MONTHS LOBBY
paign
The Permanent Income Bill, supported during the last two months by the united strength of the five large state educational institutions, was introduced in the senate yesterday by Senator R W. Coleman of Merriam. The bill was introduced as "an amendment to the constitution providing for a permanent income for the state educational institutions."
The amount of the levy for each school is not specified in the resolution presented yesterday, but is delegated to the school board. The proposed bill will relieve legislators of the necessity at every session of deciding anew what the running expenses of each institution shall be. The county club unions and simulators all of the state schools have been at work for months in behalf of the bill.
Willard Glasse, president of the County Club Union at K. U., returned the first of this week from a visit to Bradenburg which he says favors the proposal conferred with Mr. Bradenburg, president of the school. The problem is to form some plan of apologizing the money among the schools.
PITTSBURG FOR BILL
If the Permanent Income Bill is made a part of the new constitution, it will be more than four or five years before the state schools can derive any benefit from the proposed bill, while if the bill is made an amendment to the constitution the schools will be benefited much sooner. Because of the fact that the Income bill will have to be one of the three amendments of the opinion of a majority of the advice of the bill is that it will have a better chance of coming a law as a part of the new constitution which will be formed if the proposed constitutional convention is held.
LIKE EASTERN PLAN
Under a plan such as the Income Bill proposes, the state schools will have building programs like the Universities of Illinois and Ohio; good salaries; and class rooms and buildings will be provided.
WILL DIRECTOR BREWER LEAVE THE "TIGERS"?
Athletic Director Brewer may not leave the University of Missouri if certain plans of the merchants and business men of Columbia materialize. They plan to raise enough money to equal the salary offered by the athletic department College, which is fifteen hundred dollars more than his present income.
Brewer has made himself popular with both the students and the people of Columbia by his interest in the promotion of athletics at Missouri. Because of his popularity, the students some time ago offered to make up the deficiency in his salary by subscription.
W. H. Johnson, professor of education, and A. T. Walker, professor of Latin, will attend the meeting of the Southern Kansas Teachers' Association and Charles Chase and participate in this week. Professor Walker will deliver an address on "Co-operation in the Teaching of Foreign Languages." Professor Johnson, who is chairman of the University appointment committee, will speak at the School of Education and confer with the University graduates who are teachers in that section.
Attend Teachers' Meeting
Guardsmen Return

They are Joseph Ace, Stanton Smiley, Francis Campbell, BoyRust, Ivan Rice, Virgil Auchard, Dave Lupher, Percy Bruce, Bruce Crawford, and Capit, Peter, was commander of "K Company, First Kansas Infantry, of Garnett, Kas. He is entering K. U. for the first time, and comes with advanced standing from Northwestern State Normal, Alva, Oka). He enrols as a junior.
At the election of officers of the Kansas State Bar Association in Tepeca yesterday afternoon, Prof. W. E. Higgins, of the School of Law of the University, was elected vice-president. Higgins is now in Colorado Springs. He will be meeting because of ill health. The meeting, which began Monday, ended with a banquet at the Masonic temple last night.
DR. CADY WILL LECTURE TO KANSAS SCIENTISTS
Dr. H. P. Cady, of the department of chemistry, will lecture Monday evening in Topeka under the auspices of the Kansas Academy of Science on the physical and chemical properties of liquid air. In the course of his lecture, Doctor Cady will demonstrate many of the phenomenal "stunts" possible with liquid air, such as freezing them into icicles without destroying them, mixing alcohol and kerosene into solids and using them for candles, liquidizing natural gas, and boiling a kettle of liquid air on a block of ice.
Doctor Cady gave a similar lecture here last semester in the movement to "see K. U, first."
SENIORS CONTEST FOR PRIZE PLAY

K. U. ARTISTS PLEASED
Fine Arts Faculty Gave Concert for Legislators at Topeka
The members of the State Legislature were entertained with a concert by Harold L. Butler, dean of the School of Fine Arts, Mrs. Butter, Prof. Carl Preyer and Miss Anna Sweeney in Topeka Tuesday night.
The concert, which was given in Representative Hall, outdrew all other attractions in the city and the Fine Arts school of the University.
Dean Butler sang several songs and Professor Preyer played selections on the piano. Miss Sweeney acted as accompanist. Mrs. Butler gave several readings by Van Dyke, Scott, Wiggins and others.
DAILY HEALTH HINTS By the University Health Committee
The so-called bilious headache, which has little or nothing to do with bile, is usually caused by poisoning and irritation from undigested food. Relief is obtained in these cases by emptying the stomach.
For the nervous form of headache, rest and sleep in a darkened room are the treatment. Here powders and tablets are least needed, are most harmful.
When head pain is of the congestive, throbbing kind, it may be relieved by a hot foot-bath, and an icebag or cold compress to the head. Recurrent severe headaches may mean kidney or heart disease.
Whatever the cause of your headache,—whether eyes or stomach, feet or brain, it can do no permanent good. Drug yourself until the sensory nerve is restored to the point that circulation is depressed to the point just this side of heart failure.
Pittsburg Alumni Interested
"The Kansas Alumni of Pittsburg, Pa., assembled on Kansas Day at their annual dinner, send greetings with the unanimous hope that the legislature will authorize your entire program for this biennium." This statement received news yesterday by Chancellor Strong from the Kansas Alumni of Pittsburg, signed for the association by its president, Ben Nicolet.
Math Club Meets
Frances Adams, c'18, talked on Chinese and Japanese mathematics at the regular meeting of the Mathematics Club yesterday afternoon. This is one of the oldest and best mathematics clubs in the United States. A report of the papers read at the meetings in the last five years will be published in the next number of the American Mathematical Monthly.
AMERICAN ART IS ON DISPLAY
Annual Exhibit in Administration Building Shows Unusual Collection
TUDENTS MAY GO FREE
Tickets for Exhibition at Registrar's Office—Will be Here One Week
The traveling Art Exhibit, being shown on the third floor of the Administration building this week, is one of the best ever shown, according to the museum. The artists are all by well known American painters of today. Among the many costly pictures, varying in value from five hundred to three thousand dollars, landscapes, portraits, architectural drawings, and character sketches.
One of the best portraits is that of a lady by John W. Alexander. Many character sketches of Indians, Americans and Lads are worthy of his high mention in picture having a special appeal is that of a small, red-headed boy swinging his feet over the side of a box. This picture is "Pat" by Robert Henri. Other character pictures by Henri are *pay in White* and "Indian Buck" both especially good in their portraital of the characteristics of these races.
MARINE SCENES GREAT
There are three exceptionally fine marine scenes by Frederick J. Waugh, which strongly depict the play of the water on the rocks. Perhaps the best of these is "Restless Sea." "Golden Path" by William Ritschel is especially good marine scene, showing the light far out on the horizon.
Probably one of the most graceful and active pictures is "Sylvanesque" Douglas John C. Child with his child John C. Johnson is kind. Of the architectural paintings those most worthy of mention are Beauvais Cathedral Kangszhenjunga, Ponte Vecchio and the Stone Bridge Colin C. Cooper and Ernest Tansson.
EXHIBIT INSTRUCTIVE
The Art Exhibit is one that is especially beneficial and is open to the public. Pictures of high worth are shown and a pamphlet giving the artist and artist of each is handy to everyone that wishes this information.
The pictures will be on exhibition until Feb. 18. The exhibit is open from nine o'clock in the morning to five o'clock in the afternoon, every Tuesday and Thursday it will be open from eight until ten at night.
Students will be admitted free if they present one of the two tickets given by registrar's office for this purpose. Outsiders will be charged admission.

FOR KANSAS
The scrap is now on in full swing.
The scrap is now on in run swing. The Permanent Income amendment has been introduced in the state senate.
Students in the five state educational institutions are reported in the legislature as being unanimously in favor of the amendment, and working earnestly for passage and the legislature will have an opportunity to learn just how interested University students really are now that the measure has been introduced. There can be no question that the success or victory of the amendment will depend largely on the interest shown by students.
The University of Kansas is the logical one of the five schools to lead in the fight, and bear the brunt of the battle for the Permanent Income kill.
A local publication announces the arrival of some "out of gown guests," which is another argument in favor of coming prepared.
The fight can be won if every student sees or writes his senator and representative before time to vote on the measure. It's a little thing to do, but it may mean a lot for higher education in Kansas.
CAMPUS OPINION Communication must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent.
PINS AND STUDENTS
The making of pins is one of the most interesting processes of the industrial world. If one man were to sit down with a bit of steel to fashion a pin his task would be extremely tedious, to say the least, and the article he would turn out would probably not be as good as the millions of machine made pins that are made yearly—and which sell for almost nothing.
And the secret of the cheapness of pins lies in the system used in their making. Every process is definitely outlined, and one pin is as good as the next because of this sameness of treatment. Thousands of feet of steel wire go into a machine to make pins, and the repeating and repeating of the processes of manufacture turns out millions of pins—all alike.
Every year thousands of the finest young folks of the land enter our higher educational institutions. The majority of them come with their minds eager for an education, plastic, and expecting to be molded into something more than the average citizen. They come to college fully believing they will learn things that will place them on a plane above the average mind in general ability, keen perception, and what is most important, originality.
But are our colleges fulfilling the mission that is expected of them? The standardization of college courses is an element which combats the individuality of the college student, aiming more to give the student more of the general knowledge, less of the keen perception, and still less of originality.
--l hate the chap; he has no morals;
But—in my place, he passes,
Lampoon.
Tom or May comes to the University and is enrolled in general subjects granted as necessary for a good background for an education. But a semester is barely turned away and the standardization begins to show its effects. Note books are kept according to a certain formulae; themes are written on assigned subjects; instructions are to read this or that and report thus and so. The sum of knowledge gained in any course is usually contained in the text and a few required readings, and the professors go on grinding the students out of one course into the next where the standardization of the semester's work is probably still more thorough. Note books vary little or none, papers on old familiar subjects are handed in, and the same text presents the same facts year after year in the same way, and usually the clear-cut assignments are strict enough to keep the average student busy—busy doing the things that have been done over and over again by his predecessors.
How like mere pins are college graduates likely to be. Thousands of men and women graduate from college every year—all with much the same kind of instruction behind them, and that of the variety that has tended to tear down originality.
. . . . .
No great personality ever known as famous has been the output of a machine system of instruction. Originality fairly bubbles forth from the spirit of the great men of our times and of the ages past. Every one had a new idea.
Anyone can get an old idea from reading a book.
The men whose scholarly activities are not limited to books but who use the books as a background for aggressive thinking and original expression are the ones who are profiting by college careers.
The needed remedy is an opening for and the encouraging of originality and the expression of new ideas. Very few professors give their students real freedom of expression, and their assignments retard freedom of work—if the student is to stay in school.
. . . . .
Three or four times a year special incentive is given for original work in the essay writing, dramatic and engineering lines. In the face of these offerings for original work every department offers one or more scholarships to those who have covered daily assignments well, turned in the best note books, and written the best finals, none of which need display keen perception or originality.
To supervise their students in their work, not to force them, should be the aim of the real higher education.

CITY MAY HELP BUILD COASTER
Mayor Francisco Says Lawrence Will Cooperate to Get Toboggan Course
ESTIMATED COST IS $500.00
Plans Cement Slide South of Gym Where it Will be Free From Street Traffic
"The city authorities will co-operate in every way with the University in regard to building a toboggan course," said Mayor Francisco, "if it will in any way lessen the danger from coasting."
"The ordinance permits coasting on Indiana street providing there are guards at each crossing, but even with the guards it is a dangerous sport, we would rather not have coasting on the streets at all," said the mayor.
"We are not sure how much money we can give towards the slide, said W. W. Holyfield, city commissioner, "but if those in charge of the slide will draw up their plans for the slide and submit the cost we will decide at the next meeting how much we can give."
Last year there was some talk in regard to the tobogan slide. John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings at the University of Florida, manager of athletics, took up the proposition and even went so far as to look over the grounds in order to find a suitable place to build the slide, and found an account on account of a shortage of funds.
If a coaster is built it probably will be near the Gymnasium, extending past the tennis courts south of the stadium. It will also coast into rigs and autos and will not mar the looks of the campus. The slide probably will be permanent and will be made of cement. It is estimated to cost anywhere near five hundred dollars.
Chancellor Frank Strong says: "I am sure the Board of Administration would be glad to furnish money for the slide if they had funds available, but as we have not enough funds to repair the buildings of the University, I will do anything in regard to financial aid for the slide this year."
John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, believes the best way to get the thing started is for some one to take hold of the proposition and take up subscriptions from the students.
CAN FIND NO CURE FOR NEW-FANGLED DISEASE Case of Pray, Brothers, Pray
"I have now been inoculated, vaccinated, and rendered immune from all the pests of life," remarked a freshman this morning to one of the nurses at the hospital as she was wrapping up his sore arm. "But say, nurse, in this day of prevention, is it possible to inject anything into a fellow to prevent him from flunking the examinations this week?"
The nurse laughed and answered "By the process of study it is oftentimes possible to inject such knowledge into one's head so that he will be immune from all flunking. But it generally takes four hours for insinculation to take." Very seldom have I seen it work in one night."
The "poor butterfly" dropped his head as if he had been shot. The fact is that he was shot by the stunning remark. But he is not alone. The very thought of flunking is causing a great many students to sing the "Home舍妹 Blues," and "A Little Bug Will Get You If You Don't Watch Out" is another melody which now is haunting many students.
The big fireworks began yesterday. Every student will be given the opportunity to prove to his professors and instructors that for the past four and a half months he has not been working "in the dark."
OUTLINES ARE IN DEMAND
Correspondence Study System Helps Outside Students
"May I have another set of those outlines for English History from the Kansas University? I have used all of the other set, and have found them so helpful that I should like to have some more, if possible."
The above letter was written by Miss Lena Maxey, instructor in history in the high school at Beggs, Okla., to the superintendent of the same school who is taking a correspondence study course in English history and Spanish through the Correspondence Study Department of Extension Division, University of Kansas for credit at the University of Kansas. The history outlines referred to are C. C. Crawford's, professor of European history, who conducts the correspondence work in English history. "This," said Professor Crawford, "illustrates my idea of what the department of corres-
pendence is for. It is primarily to help teachers and outside students to so better work, rather than to help them with our own institution make up a "flunk."

Gamma Phi Beta Fathers' Day
Ribbon hats, brightly colored suits, and other spring vanities that rushed in with enrollment day have been relegated to the closet shelf to give place to discarded tams, sweaters, and heavy coats. Now there is a reason for this other than that of personal comfort. How would a beet-red nose and ear lobes harmonize with a gold, burgundy, or peacock blue hat?

OWLS PLAN TWO MORE EDITIONS
Discussions of plans for the next Sour Owl and the appointment of a committee for conference with the University public bureau in issuing a book of information about K. U. were the things which junior college Owls can, junior honor society for men, at the Kappa Sigma house last night.
Junior Society Investigate Possibility of Publishing Information About K. U.
Following the publication of the Sour Owl in magazine form last November, the periodical has been placed under the supervision of a board of five members of the society who will edit and publish the remaining two issues of the year. The next number will appear on March 16, and the last, on May 4. The following men are members of the Board of Managers David, Dick Tweeke, Walter Havekort, Warren Wrenles, and Harry Morgan. They invite contributions from any student in the University.
Dorman O'Leary, Horace Chandler, and Harry Morgan were appointed on a committee to investigate the possibilities of publishing a book of information about the University. The book is issue 748 of the distributed with school students who come here for basketball tournaments, debates and track meets.
A resolution was also adopted recommending that all juniors place their pictures in the Junior Section of the 1917 Jayhawk.

JAYHAWKS READY TO MEET AGGIES
Last Practice Before the Man hattan Games Will be Tonight
TO GO TOMORROW AT 11:32
Games
Squad is in Good Condition and Expect to Win Both
The Jayhawker squad will hold its last practice tonight at seven o'clock before it invades the Aggie stronghold in Nichols gymnasium at Manhattan, tomorrow and Saturday nights.
All members of the squad are in tiptop condition, w with the exception of Lytle, whose lip was cut to the bone in a collision with Rook Woodward in scrimmage Monday night. His lip is also missing from his mouth and gets into the Aegic games. However, Ernst Ublraum may start the game tomorrow night at center.
BEST PRACTICE YET
One of the best workouts this week was in Robinson gymnasium last night, when the team had a long practice and scrimmage with Julius Uhrlaub's freshman five, and another five from the Varsity squad.
The first thirty-five minutes of the practice was given over to fast floorwork and passing. Both Julius Uhrlaub and Potsy Clark gave the men pointers in the passing game. Potsy was full of ginger, got out on the floor and showed the men how he used to play the game.
LASLETT STARS
The first scrimage was between the Jayhawk regulars and the tyro quintet. The freshmen put up a good game but the Varsity had them out-classed in teamwork and goal-shooting. Laslett was in form and played a sensational game. He shared first place honors with Rudolf Uhrlaub in the number of baskets. Captain Fat Nelson played a fast aggressive game, while Kauder and E. Uhrlaub played a first class defensive game.
Plain Tales from the Hill
The men who will take the trip to Manhattan have not been chosen yet. They probably will be picked tonight after practice to squash and will leave Manhattan in 11.32. It will get to Manhattan in time for a short practice before the game.
Harry Smith, e'19, has re-entered the School of Engineering after being absent the first semester. Because he did not attend, Mr. Smith could not enroll for the fall term.
A timely plain tale handed in this morning reads: "Jack Frost's teeth were too sharp for Wilfred Wann's nose this morning. 'He bites hard', said Wann, as he applied cold water to his stinging nose. Another man almost as unfortunate was dousing his ears in cold water and complaining that the water was hot." It is possible, they both have classes in Administration, where the thermometer was boiling at sixty degrees.
Phi Dhi Phai, legal fraternity, was addressed Tuesday night by John Cieland, a judge at Portland, Oregon, on the founding of the organization. Mr. Cieland is one of the original members who founded the fraternity in Michigan in 1867, as a result of politics in a literary society.
Susan McDonald, c18, is gradually recovering from a mastoid operation necessitated by a fall on an icy sidewalk, January 17. Miss McDonald, who was operated on January 24 at the University Hospital, was in a serious condition for several days. Miss Mary Haight, superintendent of the hospital said this morning, she was much better.
Grace M. Stott, e'17, 1201 Kentucky street was blown down by the high wind yesterday morning near the bulletin board and sustained a broken arm. She was treated as a result of her fall. She was treated by Dr. John Sundwall head of the University Health Service. Miss Stott had planned to be home for Christmas, but account of the extreme cold weather went to her home in Bonner Springs.
The Sub-Freshman system is being used in the Rhetoric department. If a student fails to make good at the subject, he or she will receive a division taught by a teacher student.
Last semester there was an enrollment of 2,005 in the English department, with only four rooms to care for this number of students. When the class filled the classes must then be scattered in other buildings on the campus.
The rhetoric classes are asked to to write a description of the picture in the art exhibit which makes the greatest appeal to them. "Of course," Miss Winston said, "Most of the freshmen know little of art, but they describe the most striking or most familiar pictures. Our idea in giving this assignment is more to make the freshen notice the exhibit than to have them produce any finished art criticism."
SPORT BEAMS
Scrubby Laslett made one of the best plays of the scrimmage last night when he went down the floor at top speed, took the ball away from a teammate and then back to the end of the court in less time than it able to count ten rapidly.
Captain Fat Nelson is playing in his best form of the season. He is playing a fast aggressive game that characterizes Scrubby Lettu's play with the whistle blows and does not stop until the whistle ends the scrimmage.
The first dope on the Nebraska quintet will be forcoming tomorrow night when they clash with the Ames fice. Kansas has beaten the Iowa Fencemen in their first Missouri Valley Conference games. The Nebraska must take the games to be considered in running order for the championship.
The Missouri basketmakers are getting back in form. Missouri has won three out of four Missouri Valley Conference games. She broke even with the Iowa Aggies and won two from the Washington five. Missouri plays here next Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb. 6-7. These games will be hotly contested. The "Beat Missouri" and "Beat Kansas" slogans will ever bring the keenest of competition in any form of athletics between the schools.
Missouri students and merchants of Columbia are considering a plan to make up the offer by Wisconsin by popular subscription in order to retain Coach Brewer, at the University of Washington, who can turn out a football team that can win from Kansas once in a while, is in great demand.
The baseball "bugs," which appeared at several places in the student district during the warm weather a few days ago, have again disappeared. They are scheduled to return with the warm weather, according to one who has made a study of this species of "bugs."
Life guards for the swimming pool have been secured to keep the pool open on all of the days which are given to the men. Dick Wagstaff will be on duty at 11:30 o'clock, Henry Pegues at 2:30, Mason Arnold at 4:30, and J.-F. Troutman at 4:30. Everyone is urged to learn to swim.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
The Lawrence Drama Club will meet Thursday night at 7:45 at the home of Mrs. E. B. Backus, 1116 Nebraska street. Annette Garrett will give a study of the Irish dramatists. All interested are invited.
Associated Journalism Students will meet in the Kansan Office, Thursday at 7:45 o'clock.
The women at the University of Indiana have originated a new game. It is something like solitaire and the object is to become personally acquainted with everybody. They are tired of meeting a girl and vaguely wondering throughout the year whether she is Sue or Susanna, only when the last day of May, when the time comes for a party, that she was just plain Mary of the senior class all the time—the girl 'd' heard so much about.
Nor do they intend to hear a girl's name mentioned for months without learning that she is the tall, slim girl with black eyes and a diamond, with dark blotch skin. Such discoveries are sometimes disconcerting, they declare.
They have decided to keep a list of all the girls they have heard of and don't know, which they call a "List of Unknows." Thus each ambitious man to enlarge his acquaintance. Men's names may also be added.
A prize of twenty-five dollars is offered this year by the Daughters of the Confederacy for the best essay on "The family of the soldier from Texas During the Civil War." The essay must give an account of the soldier's experiences in service, which orance or want of clothing, food, medicine, tools, amusements, etc. This prize is open to all students in the University of Texas.
JINX ARRIVES IN K. U. TRACK CAMP
Many Cripples on Team an Aggie Meet Only Two Weeks Off
Old Man Jinx has made his appearance in the Jayhawker track camp early this season. Yesterday Dick Treweke, in high jumping, sprained his right leg, hurt last season just before he was called up, and this will slow up his work during the rest of the week. Rice is still out of this event on account of his arm, hurt several weeks ago, but he may be able to work out by the last of this
Winn is still on the hospital list as a result of a weak lung, and the shot putters were off form yesterday afternoon. All distance men did good work yesterday, while Pattinson continues to work well in the pool vault. The coaches say many of the men have been better at practice, because a lot of work will have to be done between now and the meet with the Argies, February 19.
The K. C. A. C. meet comes on the same date as the Illinois Invitation meet at Urbana this year, March 3. It is doubtful if the Missouri coaches will be able to get their usual advance dope this year by timing the K. U. team, as many of the best Kansas men will go to Illinois this year instead of Kansas City. The C. men are recently changed from March 24 to March 3. The Missouri-Kansas meet will be held in Kansas City, March 16.
Crowley was a new man out yesterday afternoon in the shot put. Liggett, a freshman, is doing good work along with the Varsity squad. Most of them were trying the jump yesterday. Cleary doing the best leaping.
in the meantime Kansas continues weak in the quarter mile and the relay, while the Tigers have four or five wins. And the record made by O'Leary last year,

K. U. UP IN THE WORLD
The University of Kansas has a larger total enrollment than Yale, according to registration figures from more than fifty colleges throughout the United States. New York University has 7179 students, while Columbia University of the same city has 7,327.
Total Enrollment Exceeds That of Yale
Columbia owes a large part of its enrollment to the large number of people taking its summer school and extension courses. Practically all of the fifty schools show a good increase. The following table gives a brief idea of the enrollment of the more important schools of the country.
New York University . 7,719
Columbia . 7,327
Michigan . 5,976
Illinois . 5,888
Minnesota . 5,114
Harvard . 4,998

PORTMANTEAU THEATER
TICKETS ON SALE MONDAY
Tickets for the Portmanteau Theater which will be given in Fraser chapel in two performances Monday, February 19, will be placed on sale at the business office Monday morning. The Portmanteau theater is being brought to the University on a general admission fee. The proceeds in excess of the guarantee will be turned over to the student loan fund.
Does Over-Crowded Fraser Mean Efficiency?
THE JOHNSON MUSEUM.
Fraser Hall was erected in 1872. Its total cost has been approximately $182,000, of which one-half was appropriated by the legislature, the other given by the city of Lawrence.
In this building are located the executive offices of the University, including the chancellor's office and the office of the registrar; the office of the dean of the college, and alumni secretary, the adviser of women, and the University extension division; offices and reception rooms of the departments of English, German, Greek, Latin, romance languages, journalism, and home economics; and the library; also, the classical museum and a small auditorium seating 830. The enrollment for 1871-72 was 265 students; now it is 3,407.
Fraser Hall is the main building of the University. To it every student and teacher must come in some part of his school activity. Has the main building of a 265-student University kept pace with the growth of the 3,407-school student of today?
HULLINGER, OF THE KANSAN
WILL STUDY AT COLUMBIA
Edwin W. Hullinger, who finished the requirements for his A. B. degree last semester, is leaving tomorrow for Columbia University to take special work in journalism. Hullinger, a member of the Kansan Board and a former editor of the Kansan, came here two years ago from Occidental College. He was killed in his heia was city editor of the Calcasieu Chronicle and edited the Hoher Times.
ART EXISTS AS DENIAL OF FACT
Hullinger was president of the Associated Journalists and resigned last night. After a semester's work at a newspaper, expects to go into new syndicate work.
In discussing the disparity between the earlier works of Wagner and those of his later years MacBougall and Wagner were marked by an increased and turned to a rose. In his first works he used the stereotyped forms of his predecessors and his work was imitative and worthless, but he saw the weakness of those earlier prose works and realized that he wrote the world an art that he wrote while.
Professor Hamilton MacDougal Says Art is Unusual Expression of Man
Send the Daily Kansan home.
All art exists because it is a denial of fact was the message of Prof. Hamilton MacDougall of Wellesley College, who lectured on Wagner and His Art to a small audience in Fraser Chapel last night.
So it is with the opera, which is founded on the supposition that singing is a natural means of expression. Singing is not a natural means of expression, for if it were and spontaneous we should cease to value it as an art.
The art of Shakespeare, he went on to state, was based on the supposition that men speak naturally in blank verse, but it is because of the fact that there is that blank verse is unusual and uncommon, that Shakespeare's work is art.
In speaking of Wagner, Professor MacDougall said that he was one of the greatest geniuses of all time, and that so far as opera goes he stands preeminently above all. This he said, and it is true. Wagner had great intellectual ability, of reasoning, undaunted spontaneity, and a fine sense of propriety. Our society, according to the speaker, is based on certain conventionalities, and men are afraid to depart from these for fear of being called Philosophe. He was not afraid of being called a Philistine that he became great.
JUNIOR WOMEN PLAY K. C. TEAM
Jayhawker Five Meets Polytech
nic Quintet Tomorrow
Night
Coach Hazel Pratt with eight junior basketball women, representing the University of Kansas, will leave tomorrow at eleventh-thirty o'clock for Kansas City where they will clash with the women's team of the Polytechnic Institute in Central high school.
The K. U. women are in good condition. Dorothy Qurfield, Joyce Brown, and Captain Dorothy Tucker have shown up well in the interclass competition. Among all of our best scoring machines of any women's team in the Missouri Valley.
The Junior women held their last practice with the senior women at its annual reunion.
The game will probably be fast and hard-fought, but Coach Chayn Pratt said she felt certain the junior women would win if they played as they have in the women's interclass basketball series.
Those who will take the trip to Kansas City are: Sara Trant, Joyce Brown, and Dorothy Querfeld, forwards; Captain Dorothy Tucker and centers; and Ruth Endacott, Lucile Sterling, and Nolle Liebengood, jee
BIG BUSINESS FOR BOOK EXCHANGE
Student Enterprise Closes To morrow After Successful Week -Receipts $500
"Home" for Fine Arts Students
The book exchange in Fraser has done a big business during the week, according to W. H. Wilson, manager of the enterprise. The receipts to date have been over $500, nearly one-fourth more than was received for books at the opening of the fall semester. Tuesday was the busiest day, the receipts amounting to more than $330.
The exchange has made a great saving for the students, who have been able to buy their books much below the price of new ones.
The exchange will close tomorrow. No more books will be accepted. Final settlement for books will be made Saturday morning, and those who have turned in books are asked to have them to receive payment and remove all books not sold. There are over 800 books yet unsold, and unless these are called for before February 9, they will be stored away at the owner's risk, and will not be accessible until the exchange opens next fall.
Men's Glee Club picture will be taken at Squires', Saturday at 11:30.
TWO STUDENTS WITHDRAW
TO ENLIST IN ARMY
THOMPSON HOME
A small residence at 1406 Tennessee is the present home for 226 students of the School of Fine Arts since North College was abandoned two weeks ago. The residence has nine rooms, two pianos being used in each room. The library occupies one room and parts of others.
James J. Cubbinson, c19 and Byron H. Mehl, Ph. T'8, have withdrawn from the University and will go to Leavenworth where they intend to enter school with a view of taking an asking question in a regular army. They expect to be in school for a year before taking the examination. Cubbinson lives at 2500 N. 10th St., Kansas City, Kansas and Mehl at Levenworth, Kansas. They are both members of the Ph Gamma team in Levenworth. They use c19 'c19 also a Ph Gam is considering withdrawing from school and accom paning Cubbinson and Mehl.
GROUND-HOG SEES SHADOW TODAY
Cold Weather Helps to Send Him Back to His
Den
This is ground-hog day—a day apart by the people of the United States for the worship and discussion of the homely woodchuck. It is popularly assumed that the ground-hog comes out of his winter quarters on a cold morning and runs back and is allowed by the "powers that be" six more weeks of winter weather in which to finish his sleep. For very obvious reasons he will run back today whether he sees his shadow or not—any sensible ground-hog cannot can not be blamed this year for the variety of weather which may follow.
If any further information about the ground-hog is desired, look in the enecyclopedia under ground-hog—no there. Look next for hog, ground—nothing there—and if there were, it would likely pertain to a sort of food sometimes called sausage. In Winter's for ground-hog—there always is aurrence to "Candelas." Candlemas is the day observed in other countries; only our own country takes any notice of the ground hog.
Want Rooms For Merchants
The extension division would like to know of all rooms available for the Merchants' Short Course to be held. An available will please call K. U. 101.
Two Professors Meet
It seems rather singular that a man should come clear from Boston to introduce one K. U. professor to another. Last night Professor MacDougall introduced Dr. Winhrop P. Haynes of the geology department to teach students at School of Fine Arts. Dr. Haynes was for two years an instructor in Walesley where Professor MacDougall is supervisor of music.
SENATORS LOOK OVER BUILDINGS
Ways and Means Committee of Senate Visits Campus Today
CLIMB TO TOP OF FRASER
Senator Thompson Favors Permanent Income—Make Many Comments
The Ways and Means Committee of the State Senate, accompanied by two representatives of the House, spent the entire day on the Hill inspecting the buildings and crowded conditions of the University. The members of the committee were then compulsus by Charcelon Strony, Dean Templin, and E. T. Hackney, of the Board of Administration.
TALK IT OVER
While classes were in session, they were taken to the top floor of Fraser Hall and then to the basement. Snow Hall and the Medical Building were taken from the basement; the buildings they were taken to the east wing of the Administration Building and shown the foundation erected in 1912 for the main part of the building.
The committee was shown the large cracks in the foundations and walls, and the crowded rooms in Snow Hall, one of the buildings condemned by the state architects. The top floor of the building and the basement, where the state water analysis plant is located, were inspected.
The members of the committee had many comments on conditions in the buildings. They thought two-by-four rooms on the fourth and fifth floors in Fraser would make better store rooms than class rooms.
THOMPSON FOR TAX
"I favor a well-organized tax, one upon which dependence can be placed so that the institutions can plan their improvements accordingly," said Sen. Will S. Thompson, of Hutchinson. "Nothing has been said in the Senate concerning the tax, but I have heard plenty of outside talk. I am in favor of the tax if it is drawn in a well-organized manner."
The members of the Ways and Means Committee at the University today are: Senator Wilson, chair; Representative Uffman, Paulum, Metcalf, Kanawe, Snyder, Thompson, and Representatives Pand and Woodhouse.
SAMPLE INVITATION HERE
Senior Bids to go on Sale Next Week
"Samples of the senior invitations have been received, and orders probably will be taken from the seniors next week," Blondie Jones, chairman of the senior invitation committee, said today.
"On account of the extra high price of paper and leather, the contract for the invitations was placed only after much difficulty. Only one United States, would guarantee to furnish leather at all," continued Jones.
The invitations this year will be embossed and printed in brown ink on a good grade of white paper, according to Jones
INVITE NEWSPAPER MEN
Journalists Want to Hear Big Men This Semester
During the spring semester, students in the department of journalism will have the opportunity of hearing several speakers who have had practical work in the newspaper field.
At the meeting of the Associated Journalist students held in the Kanan office last night, it was decided to invite Gov. Arthur Capper, and U. Grace McGrath, a Sas City managers of the Associated Press and United Press, respectively, to talk to the journalists before the end of the term. These men have already expressed their willingness to serve as a satisfactory date, can be arranged.
Edwin Hullinger, president of the Associated Journalists, announced that he would not be in school this semester. Mr. Hullinger will leave Saturday for Columbia University, New York City, where he will take work in the Columbia School of Journalism.
The journalists will give another point in the spring the nature of which is unknown.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1917.
PUT YOUR BEST FOOT, ETC.
Let him who gropes painfully in darkness or uncertain light, and prays vehemently that the dawn may ripen before it does, "Do the duty which lies nearest thee, which thou knowest to be a duty! Thy clearer, that already have become clearer." - Carlyle.
It is an opportunity—a particularly fortunate opportunity in view of the present appropriation situation. The why is obvious.
It is to be hoped that every student on the Hill will be on the qui vive to show courtesy to the visitors. Stop and talk with a merchant when you see him standing in front of a building. Tell him what building it is, what it is used for, etc. If you have time, take him through the building or over part of the campus. It will make a heap of difference in his opinion of K. U.
And, incidentally, you may thereby make a friend who will be of value to you in the future.
MORE "PINS"
A recent language questionnaire asks students to name, among other things, the language spoken at home by their father. Now who wants to relate what Dad said when the neighbor's chickens scratched up that sprig garden?
Right or wrong the KANSAN wants more student communications of the type which appeared yesterday under the head "Pins and Students." A serious minded comment on some subject that touches close home to University folks is more rare in the community columns than "burlesquish" knocks on some trivial matter.
Yesterday's communication hit a vital spot in the system of American education. The question is—"can that system bare itself to such criticism without fear of the results?"
The communication carried a big idea, and no small element of truth. It was, however, too general in con-
ming the systematizing of education. Many courses do not tear down individualism as was stated, but on the other hand give great latitude for original work. The treatment of similar subjects year after year should tend to bring out different points of view rather than suppress originality. The many courses offering laboratory work could hardly fear such criticism, for under the microscope and in the testing machine are still many unknown secrets.
It cannot be denied there are many professors—an element growing smaller every year—who lay too much stress on the non-essentials in their courses, hashing over the same details in the same way year after year, demanding work just thus and so, and
discouraging expression of personal opinion by ridicule that cannot be answered by the student without returning the ridicule.
But the picture is not as black as it has been painted. The tendency is forward, and such communications as the one yesterday show students are thinking and have their shoulders to the wheel in the progress.
If some geek saunters up Mt. Oread with a straw hat on one of these breezy zero mornings do not think he overcrimped for qui-week. He is simply taking the last degree in Greekdom.
VENTILATION
This cold weather is especially inviting for the professor who forgets there are students who like to breathe real air. Many complaints have been heard against certain faculty members who keep the windows in their class rooms closed from the time they come on the Hill in the morning until they leave in the afternoon. The janitors do not open the windows when they sweep, so many rooms get no real fresh air from the beginning until the end of cold weather.
Such a condition is to be condemned in any building where many people must stay for several hours at a time indoors, and more especially in a university which pretends to be up-to-date.
It is never too cold to open a window from the top for a few minutes during classes, or to let in a few gusts from a number of open windows between classes. The ventilators in the majority of University buildings are obsolete and can hardly be dignified by that name now.
There is only one way to get healthy class-room ventilation, and that is through open windows.
It may be colder in Siberia but who wants to go to Siberia?
THE "JOINER"
Yes, it's hard for the poor fellow. Every day for the last three weeks he has cast aside his flannel shirt, donned a biled collar, gone without his lunch, and smiled sweetly as the photographer caught him for the hundred and fifth time in the latest group picture for the Jayhawker. He is the college "joiner."
He has realized his ambition. He has joined everything from the League to Execute Pink Teas to the Laundry Collectors' Alliance. He goes to the meeting on the night that he is voted in as a member, shows up for the Jayhawk picture, and howls in anguish when he is asked to pay the dues of the society for the first semester of his non-attendance. He belongs to everything that bears a name in the University.
Organizations of noble motives die when he launches into their midst, turning the subline into a state of chaos in his mad chase for honors to be embalmed in the Jayhawker.
Our idea of a real optimist is a person who could wait for a K. U. car on a morning like this without teaching his feminine escort a few new tricks in vocabularizing.
Now arises the faculty humorist who blushingly admits that it was his devilish childhood ambition to get a pug-nosed-bench-legged bulldog and name him Oscar. Tee hee.

WAR SCARE WILL NOT AFFECT K. U.
Too Late to Start Military Training for Immediate War—Prof. Moore
FACULTY MEN DISAGREE
Capt. Jones Maintains That Military Training Should be Compulsory Here
What effect the present war scarcity will have upon the system of military training in the United States and whether military training will be introduced into the universities and colleges of the United States, are questions American people are asking today.
MILITARY TRAINING IMPRACTICAL
In answer to the second question Prof. B. F. Moore, of the department of history, said this morning, "I do not think that the present situation will bring military training to the universities. It is now too late to get any plan of military training in force for an immediate war.
MILITARY
"I heard" to military training for K. U., he added, "I think that it is impractical and useless for Kansas or any other college or University to attempt military training as a means of preparedness. Institutions of this kind have neither the time nor the room for it. This practice develops a type of tin soldier who more often serves in the field and 'shoulder arms.' The only benefit from such training is the physical exercise and control effected by it."
UNIVERSITIES FURNISH OFFICERS
Capt. F. E. Jones, of company M, believes that military drill and training in military science should be as important as it is in the University of Kansas, because it develops better control of one's faculties than gymnastics.
"If the universities and colleges would demand a certain amount of military training there would be less need for compulsory training," said Mr Jones, this morning. "These institutions would turn out a group of men, who because of their training in connection with their education would be in a position to command." He added that educational institutions would in a three part solve the military problem as far as officers are concerned."
IF BUGS DECLARE WAR,
HUMANS BEWARE!!
Outnumber and Outweigh Us.
"People owe their existence to the fact that conditions are unfavorable for the growth and development of insects," is the theory advanced by Prof. P. W. Classen of the department of entomolery.
According to Professor Claassen,
the house fly would be one of our
greatest enemies if the struggle with
foes, the struggle with fate, and
the struggle between individuals did not
keen it down.
"If conditions were ideal, and we start with two flies in April, by April we would have a progeny of 191,010,000,000,000,000. If these were scattered across the earth they would cover to a depth of forty-seven feet."
The progeny of a female San Jose scale has also been worked out and during one season the offspring are well-filled providing rhone have been destroyed.
"If one female house fly and its progeny found conditions favorable for growth and development in a city of fifty thousand population," said Mr. Husband. "The situation would suffocate before they could escape from the city."
The average number of eggs laid by an insect is between four and five hundred. Only about one-half of one per cent of these reach the adult stage. This keeps the number of insects about the same from year to year. Sometimes the conditions are favorable for growth of one species of insect, the result is we are visi- to a plague as the grasshopper plague of Kansas in 1876 which destroyed the entire vegetation of the state.
If the present insects should mobilize into one vast army and should declare war on the animal kingdom, they could put an end to the European war in less than a week. They could lay waste to the entire world if they only had organization and were not hindered by weather conditions, number of species of animals, composes over half of the numbers of animals life and their combined weight exceeds the weight of all other forms of animal life.

His room-mate does not borrow his tama-onshanter or his sweater, so he stays in the year. He does not have to heed the voice of Big Ben.

BIG GYM MEET ARRANGED
Triangular Contest Arranged for Robinson Gym
A triangular meet of the gymnasium teams of the University of Kansas, the Kansas Aggies, and the Emporia Normals will be held in Robinson Gymnasium, February 23 or 24 K. U. won the meet last year at Emporia and many of the best men on last year's team are back this season.
Work will be done in the meet on the parallel bars, high bars, side horses, and also in the tumbling. Jensen and Graham are the best high bar artists. Last year Jensen defeated his brother, who goes to school at the Normal, in the triangular meet. It is possible that a wrestling tournament may be held the same night of the meet here in February.
Among the men trying out for the coming meet are Jensen, Graham, Foster, Cary, Bell, W. O. Lytle, L. L. Dyche, Lindsey, and Fast. More men are needed in many of the events, according to Prof. C. B. Harrison, of the department of physical education who has charge of the work.

Coaches Predict Hard Battle and Victory for Jay-hawkers
Coaches Hamilton and Clark and ten of the best cagers on the Jayawer hawker squad left at 11:52 this morning for Applegate, where they will clash with the fast aggressive Farmer five in a two game series.
The Jayhawkers held their last practice night before they go into the game tonight. The entire hour was given over to fast floorwork, passing, and goal-shooting from every possible angle and distance. After the practice, Conch Hamilton called the men together in his office for a call to the court. "Go home now and get a good night's sleep, and then fight the Agnieszka off their feet tomorrow night," was his final advice to the men.
All Aggrieville is boasting about what the Farmer quarter is going to do to the Kansas five when they meet in the Nichols gymnasium tonight, it will get K U, on our count" is the Aggrievelle slogan says the Manhattan Mercy.
"That is the attitude of Coach Z. G, Cleveland, of Captain MacMillan, of nine other Aggie basketball athletes, of spectators who saw the K. U, combats, and of some 2,500 followers of Aggie athletics," added the Mannan Mercury, "and it is based on the second game the upper edge staged in the second game with the Hamilton men at Lawrence, afr losing 16 to 34 the first evening."
AGGIES ROASTFUL
TEN MAKE TRIP
The Jayhawkers who took the trip are: Captain Fat Nelson, Scrubby Laslett, Harold Lyle, Ernest Uhrlaub, Dutch Uhrlaub, Leon Gibbons, Walter Kauder, Rook Woodward, Ada Lindsey, and Humity Wilson.
The probable lineup for the starting of the first game is: R. Uhrlubr and Gremni, forwards, Lyle center, Captain Nelson and Lasttie guards.
CO-EDS TO LEARN PENCING
Equipment Secured for Mixed Class Under Miss Hoerrig
Fencing, which is being introduced in the University in place of the regular gymnasium work, is considered one of the best of setting-up exercises by Prof. Charles B. Harrison of the department of physical education.
"Fencing requires co-ordination of muscles and is ranked in the same class with boxing," said Professor Harrison this morning. "It also de- ders the muscles which are not used by the stunner in the ordinary gymnasium work."
Both men and women will be permitted to enroll in the same class under the same course.
Miss Lena Hoernig, an expert fencer, has been secured to take charge of the new course, which will be given at four-thirty o'clock Monday and Wednesday afternoons. Miss Hoernig is adept with the folls, having taught fenced the last six years at the Y. W. C. A. in Kansas City.
First-class equipment has been secured and will be placed at the disposal of the students who enroll in the course. The faculty room at the east end of the gymnasium will be used as the classroom.
MAY CLOSE POOL HALLS
Senator Carroll Will Present Prohibitory Bill Soon
A bill to protect students from the temptation of loitering in pool halls is to be presented in the legislature by Sen. C. E, Carroll soon. Senator Carroll says the failure of many students in Kansas schools is a result of the presence of these halls in college towns.
Owners of pool halls in Pittsburg, Lawrence, Emporia, Manhattan, and Hays will be affected by this bill if it is passed. Senator Carroll represents the district in which the Agricultural College is located. Emporia law has been abolished there.
In Lawrence the halls were voted out of existence once, but they have never been.

Coach Z. G. Clevergender of the Agri-
ries, in commenting upon the proble-
result of the two-game series of
Manhattan which itarts tonight, said;
"I wish I could feel a little more optimistic; I haven't the machine that is necessary to stage a comback when K. U. comes here. I have a machine all right, but its joints need oiling. The boys don't seem to work well together, but, for one thing, they are together for the first time."
The Missouri quintet is scheduled to meet the Jayhawkers in Robinson Gymnasium next Tuesday and Wednesday nights. If anything please a Jayhawker better than beating the Figers, it is beating them twice.
The Tiger quintet has won three out of four Missouri Valley conference games, one from the Iowa Agrite State University and another from University team from St. Louis.
It is predicted by Jayhawker fana
to have been the best cheap
in Lawrence under the strike.
The Aggies say the Aggie defeats last week were due to the fact that Kansas has glass backstops instead of wooden ones. Coach Clevenger believes the Aggies will win on their court.
The Jayhawkers will virtually clinch the Missouri Valley basketball championship should they win both games from the Aggies.
The Jayhawkers have a bright outlook for next year, according to Julius Uhrlauh, coach of the freshman basketkeepers. He says there is some exceptionally good basketball material developing among the freshman squad.
Two teams from the freshman squad held a thirty-minute scrimmage last night in Robinson Gymnasium after the Varsity squad left the floor. Davis, Barter, and Ritchey showed some stellar work.

NEW TRACK MEN OUT FOR WORK
Speedsters Making Good Time on the Indoor Oval Path
New men continue to come out for the track team, but many more are needed to help the hurdles, especially the high sticks. Connely is the latter in the pool. Pattinson is still improving in the pvc vault and is doing excellent work.
Smee was doing some good work in the dashes yesterday, and Crowley, another old track man, not only worked out with the weights, but also ran the quarter. Welsh beat him in this race in 58 seconds. Coach Hamilton is trying to get Welsh down to 20 minutes, and he runs him in the half, later in the afternoon against Rodkey. The time was unqualified for an early-season workout.
Treweke hurt his leg slightly yesterday just as he finished his practice in the high jump. Rice may be able to work out again by the first of next week, and his return to the track sound will strengthen the high jump
Seward and Rustenbach, the two new hurdle men, have run against each other in regular meets before their track work started in the University. They live in adjoining towns and each man entered the hurdles, dashes, pole vault, and the high jump year it would be a toss-up as to which man would win the greatest number of firsts in the season's meets.
Captain Rodkey was instructing some of the new men how to turn the curves on the short gymnasium track yesterday. This is one of the greatest difficulties which a man unacquainted with an indoor track has to overcome.

DAILY HEALTH HINTS By the University Health Committee
It is stupid to suffer from headaches without trying to find out what causes them. In this way one often permits a serious disease to develop, for in many cases headaches are nature's danger signal.
It is worse than stupid to swallow a lot of "deep" because someone who makes large profits by selling the stuff declares that it is good for headaches. The dangerous thing about most advertised headache remedies is that they do relieve the headache for a time, and so fool you into calling
for them again and again. But they never prevent the headache from coming again, because they do not relieve the cause of the pain; they do not cure the disease of which the headache is a symptom; more, these remedies often contain a dangerous poison, which works slowly but surely to weaken the heart.
A new 12-horsepower electric engine for laboratory work was installed at the power plant last week. It will be put into use soon. It is a valuable addition to the department and will give more opportunity for electrical experiments.

AGGIES WIN TWO FROM HAWKERS
Farmers Upset Dope, Winning Two-Game Series, 38 to 9 and 32 to 29
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 5, 1917.
FIRST DEFEAT OF SEASON
The Aggie basketball squad unset all dope by defeating the fast Jayhawkier quintet in a two-game series at Manhattan, Friday and Saturday nights, by the scores of 38 to 9, nd 32 to 29.
The first one-sided Jayhawker outfeat of the season, Friday night, came as a bolt of lightning from a clear sky that three thousand Jayhawker fans who three hours before close and hard-fought with Kansas as the probable winner. The remarkable comeback of the Kansas quintet in the second game has satisfied the Jayhawkers and coaches that Kansas still has its chance to win the Missouri Valley championship.
Kansas Retains Lead in Valley Race—Meet Missouri Tomorrow
"The men were simply not hitting in the first game," was Coach W. O. Hamilton's explanation of the one-sided Aggie score. "In the second game the men hit their stride, and they might good game. The Aggies had a mighty good game and it was a toss-up from start to finish."
MEN TOOK A SLUMP
Coach Potsy Clark said the team took an "unconditional slump" in the clash on Friday, but that the men got together in the game Saturday night, and showed some real "right." He believes that it is just a matchup between the Aggies and the Jayhawkers to tell them what team. He accounted for the Jayhawker slump Friday night by the fact that the Aggie court is much wider than the court in Robinson gymnasium and that it took some time for the Jayhawker basket-cagers to get used to playing on the strange court.
CHANCE AT VALLEY TITLE
Kansas still has a better chance to win the Missouri Valley Championship than the Aggies according to Coach Hamilton. The Jayhawkers have sixteen Missouri Valley Conference games on their schedule while the Aggies have but twelve, so that Kansas can lose the same number of games on their schedule while the Aggies have but two, so that Kansas has the same number of games as the Aggies as the NCAA championship, as the number of games would give a larger percentage than the Aggies could get.

"Under Cover", the play to be given by the Dramatic Club February 28, deals with the U. S. secret service. It exposes fraudulent and harsh methods used by officers in York in guarding against smugging.
"Under Cover" Shows Methods Used by U. S. Officials
"The plot is full of surprises and is intensely interested," said Professor MacMurray, director of the play, this morning.
The story centers around the smugglage of a $200,000 necklace into this country and the methods of secret service men in catching the smuggler. The play had a long run in eastern theaters. This is the first season that it has been released for amateur production. Rio Cooper Megreu, writer of many plays, is the author.

NOW OPEN TO GRADUATES
A fellowship in the University of Kansas for the second semester of the current year is made vacant by the resignation of Gerhard Baerg, who held the fellowship in the department of German. He is now teaching in the department and is unable to hold both positions.
The fellowship is open to competition by graduates of the University of Kansas, and of other universities and colleges, holding the bachelor's degree. It pays $140 for the half year.
Applications must be in at Dean Blackmar's office by February 10, 1917. Application blanks may be obtained at the dean's office.
JUNIOR WOMEN WIN FROM POLY
Speed and Team-work Brings Score of 35 to 19 Saturday Afternoon
The Jayhawk junior women's basketball sextette won an easy game from the Polytechnic sextette at the Polytechnic Institute at Kansas City, Saturday afternoon, by the score of 35 to 19.
The Kansas basket-cagers took the lead at the opening of the encounter and held it until the end of the game. The Polytechnic women played a good game, according to Coach Hazel Pratt, but they have not been playing together as long as the Kansas team, and lacked speed.
None of the women received injuries in the game, and all are in fine condition for the next game on the schedule. The junior women have never been defeated. The next game will be the final game, the tette, and will be played in Robinson gymnasium in about two weeks. The Polytechnic team will probably clash with the Jayhawker freshman team at the same time, according to Coach Hazel Pratt. The Polytechnic team has been beaten by the Jayhawker for three successive games and declined to schedule another game this season.
The junior women who made the trip are: Dorothy Querfeld, Joyce Brown, and Sara Trant, forwards Captain Dorothy Tucker and Gladys Bentcott, Dorothy Bentcott, and Ruth Endcott, Nelle Liebengood, and Lucile Sterlings, guarding.
The regular monthly convoction will be held Friday, February 9, at 10:10. (Signed).

"For the first time in the history of the University," said Mrs. Brown, this morning, "all of the women of the University including the women of the faculty will meet in regular meetings we have had mass meetings before but no separate convocations and we expect to make it a thorough success.
"The men students had their separate meeting and every man in the University attended. It is the womens' turn now. Although the reason for the meeting may not be as grave as that which called the men to the presence of everyone is needed that the convocation will be successful.
SIMILAR TO MEN'S
"I am asking that every woman faculty member be on the platform and take an interest in the event. The program will be varied so that the meeting will be of interest to all." assured Mrs. Brown.
SETS PRECEDENT
"I note that the chapel seats only 830 but if all the men students were able to get in I am sure we can be very comfortably accommodated, you will see. We will insure the separate convoitation as a regular feature in the future."
The subject for Mrs. Brown's talk will be "Why", explaining the reason for existing conditions that effect the women of the University. The Women's Student Government Assoc. will appear by Mary Cairn Hoffman, the president. Other speakers will be added to the program later.
Prof. W. B. Wilson, head of the department of Ottawa University, spent the day visiting the faculty of the department of botany. He will be instructor of botany, the second term of the 1917 Summer School. He was a graduate student and while taking work towards his doctor's degrees at Chicago University.

GIRLS' DORMITORY BILL
READ IN LEGISLATURE
A bill providing for a gris's dorsitory in Kansas State Institutions of Learning was introduced into the legislature at Topeka Wednesday. The measure allows each of the institutions to insure lands amounting to $100,000 for the building of dormitories, but provides for sufficient profits in conducting the halls to pay off the bonds.
This measure is the result of the annual meeting of the Kansas Council of Women and is being earnestly supported by committees representing the alumnae of the University of Kansan and the Kansas State Agricultural College, as a committee of women representing the students of the state schools.
HALLS USED FOR CLASSES IN ART
Record Enrollment of 248 Crowds Capacity of Fine Arts Department
Crowded quarters are hindering the work of the department of painting and drawing, according to Prof. William A. Griffith. "At present," said Professor Griffith, "we are utilizing every bit of class room allowed us, and many of the students in drawing rooms at the hall, and owing to these unfavourableditions students are not able to do their best work."
The enrollment in the department is larger than ever before. At present there are 248 students enrolled in the department, and the three instructors are kept busy from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. m., caring for the classes. We are now, from the School of Fine Arts, drawn into drawing and painting, forty in design, and twenty-seven in the history of art, while 128 are enrolled from the College and eighteen from the School of Engineering. Due to the congested condition, fifty-seven of those from the College are crowded into one class. At present, those from the College are the Artist take their work in the morning, and those from the College and School of Engineering are cared for in the afternoon.
"University instructors in the department ought to do painting and research work," said Professor Griffen to care for classes, this is impossible unless the instructors are generous enough to do it on Sundays."
Professor Cady of the department of chemistry, will lecture before the Kansas Academy of Science at Memorial Hall in Topeka tonight. He will demonstrate the physical, and chemical properties of liquid air, discussing its use, and making a number of interesting experiments.

SHORT COURSE CLASS IS LARGE
Merchants Are Arriving on Mt.
Oread to Attend Lectures
E. L. WILDEY SNOWBOUND
Will Give Talk on Mail Order Business Tomorrow, However
The Show Card Writing class at eight-thirty' oclock in the Engineering Building was the first class of the week. F. G. Weeks of Joplin, Mo., will conduct this course for the entire class; he will have an assistant this year, as the work has grown to such an extent that he could not handle it alone.
The Fourth Merchants' Short Course started this morning with splendid enthusiasm and an enrollment as large as for the first day last year. Fifty merchants and clerks from Secretary F. R. Hamilton's office at two o'clock this afternoon. Thursday is expected to be the biggest day.
OLIGER SPEAKS
A. L. Oliger, of Emporia, state secretary of the Kansas Retailers' Association spoke at 9:30 on "The Scope of a Modern Chamber of Commerce," which included discussions about the business men's associations, as outlined by Mr. Oliger, are: Get-together Meetings, Mid-Day Lunches, Credit Systems, Dress-Up Week, Pay-Credit, Advertising Schemes for every merchant in successful Window-Dressing campaigns.
EDGAR LECTURE
Clinton Rogers Woodruff of Philadelphia at 10:30 told the merchants of "The Business Man and Municipal Government." His talk was interesting not only to the merchants, but many students who heard his talk.
At 11:30 the value of Newspaper Advertising was emphasized by A. E. Edgar of Detroit, Mich. Mr. Edgar will deliver three more lectures during the week. He is the author of "How to Advertise a Retail Store."
The first afternoon session was conducted by Harold G. Ingham of the University Extension Division by the use of charts, maps, and slides in illustrating the Accounting Methods for the Small Retailer. A system based on greatest efficiency was explained to the merchants.
H. Leslie Wildey, who was to have charge of the Mail Order Conference at 2:30, and who is scheduled for the day before in the east and will be here tomorrow. E. Edgar will give his lecture on "Advertising Sales and Special Events" tonight at 7:30. Tomorrow he will lecture on "Three Reasons for My Competition". Mr. Wildey will also have a round table session tomorrow.

Welcome to K. U., Mr. Merchant.
WELCOME!
You are not only to be our guests for a week, but fellow students as well, and we turn over our home to you. Make every room of it fit in with your scheme of work and pleasure for a whole week, and we won't mind if you interrupt a few of our classes in looking for your own, and we'll be only too glad to show you any part of the campus.
We want you to be just that much at home you will feel you know K. U. as well as we do, and when you do it will mean everything to your business, and the thing that concerns us now—the University and its future development.
Let's just make believe the regular enrollment has been increased by five hundred eager students for one week, and forget about the gulf that divides students from the rest of the world—if any ever existed.
But we, the students—your fellow students, just ask you to feel at home, and on terms of familiarity with every one of us so we both may have a good time for the entire week.
The Extension Division has done what it could to provide worth-will speakers and courses to occupy your working hours. The merchants down town will blow themselves a few times for you, and the faculty will be a little more on dress parade for our visitors.
Were the windows of the famous Lawrence street cars installed before the invention of transparent glass, or can it be possible that cloudy appearance got there by the dirt and the elements?
THE "ONCE-OVER"
Now that the Ways and Means Committee has given us the "once-over" the old question still remains—will it give us the two buildings re quested by the Board of Administration?
The members of the Committee were shown the classes in basements and garrets—the old foundation of the Administration building—the unfit condition of the foundations and walls of Snow Hall and the Medic building—and Old North College, ready to crumble any moment.
It was apparent many of our buildings were out of date, a few of them actually unsafe, and practically all of the class-room furniture bearing the earmarks of costly antiques. All this was evident.
- * * *
The all important question that follows is whether or not the full importance of our needs was impressed on the senators. Did they see how many students were crowded out of
taking work they wanted because there was not room enough to run another class—or money enough to hire another professor? Did they see where the light and ventilation were poor in otherwise comfortable enough looking rooms? Did they see students doing laboratory work at nights and waiting for chairs in the seminars at the University library? Did they see why many professors of national repute have left K. U. in the last few years?
In other words, in looking over our external appearance of academic prosperis, did they see the deeper needs that after all determine the standing of the school.
Chancellor Strong, for the sake of argument, a newly elected member of the state Banking Commission, is out making a trip of inspection, to recommend banking legislation. He goes to Washington, Kans., where he visits the bank of Senator Wilson, sure-enough chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. He stays in the bank a day, sees where the furniture was scratched, spots a few cans in the back yard, sees where the lighting is bad, finds something wrong with the arrangement of the teller's windows, and says the book-keepers have to work too close together.
But would Chancellor Strong advise the legislature to act on that investigation?
--chirp Of! the Katydids down on the ground?
Here is a parallel. The Board of Administration has studied the needs of K. U. for years. They know the needs of K. U. externally and internally. Their report is very thorough, and representing the taxpayers of the state they have not exaggerated the needs of the University.
What they have expressed as "needs" are in reality "necessities"—thiners we must have at once.
Can't the Legislature take their word for it?
Once upon a time an organization had a picture date set for 12:30 and everybody was on time. But that was neither recently nor here at K. U.
What has become of the old fashioned woman who didn't like to see her name in the newspapers.
Many of the Lawrence white way lights were off on Saturday night. Can it be that Mayor Francisco is already fearing a raid by the "Zeps?"
It is unfortunate for those whose fathers will be in town for Merchants' week that the date was set so early in the month.
If you don't see the target the professor it shooting at, look for the spot he hits.
The only way for the University to teach practical courses in domestic science is to bring a dozen or so mothers here and give them free rein. Then the co-eds can learn to cook a meal that would stick to the ribs.
Every professor remembers at least one student who graduated ten years or so ago who was a little better than anybody who has taken the course since.
Speaking of music, the president has sent another note to Germany.
Why wouldn't it be a good idea to hold the Merchants' Week courses on the fifth floor of Fraser? It surely would result in a few converts for our plea for more room.
Shivering in a classroom one of these fine zero mornings brings one to the realization that while the University of Kansas buildings may not possess any traits of architectural art they certainly are well ventilated.

Most of us can remember the time when the college student was a gaily dressed person who early adopted a pipe bearing strange insignia and by a bulldog, stopping occasionally to give vent to a lusty rah, rah for something.
What is the reason? We think it is that the college student has ceased to be quite such a rarity. Everybody goes to college now. There are tens of thousands of degrees handed out every June and the time is coming up. And with regard to all this there is something that most of us should keep in mind.
There has been a mighty change in this person. He no longer feels under obligation to live up to the com-supplement ideal. The tendency with regard to personal appearance seems to be toward a more conservative mood, and that other great complement of hazing, is also disappearing rapidly.
With competition keener in every line of business, it behooves the college student to get a few of the things that others are missing. The man who blunders his way through the university along with hundreds of others, is asked if he has been missed through. For that reason, the "forehanded person" will ask himself if he is making the most of his time—Michigan Daily.

THE languorous charm of the Hawaiian native instruments—so moving in appeal, so observably in vogue—is strikingly characteristic of the Ukulele. Its stone possesses that curiously beautiful timbre, that exotic charm of tonal quality which has made these instruments so sensationally popular.
The Ukulele has a pleasing grace of form. The finer models are made of genuine Hawaiian Koa wood. It is much in request today among the smarter college and other musical organizations.
It is easy to learn. Its price includes an Instruction Book.
Hawaiian Steel Guitar
Every chord struck upon this typically representative Hawaiian instrument is marked by a weird, plaintive harmony and strangely beautiful qualities of tone. It brings, to any music, full of vivid color and varied charm.

PRIZE PAINTINGS ARE ON DISPLAY
Pictures in the Administration Building Work of America's Best Artists
The paintings on display at the art exhibit in Administration Building are among the best ever produced by American artists. They are realistic, show a good choice of subject matter and especially good execution. They require plenty of perspiration and lasting color schemes, bringing out the force of action.
Many good landscapes are found among them. These differ from summer scenes to winter ones. One scene, "Early Spring Twilight," that of a meadow and brook in the foreland, scree and hills in the background, is naturally leasing. The painting of the stream is unusually fine.
Another sunlight scene is that of a November evening which shows the sunlight playing on the side of the small cottages and the trees casting their shadows on the roofs. This picture is by Gardener Symmons and is especially good picture of its kind. The tree are also many beautiful snow scenes. One of the most striking of these is Gardner Seymmons "First Snow."
"Winter Morning- Mianus River," by Ochtman is especially good in its portrayal of water in winter. Edward W. Redfield's "On the Delaware River" is one of his best works all his artistic ability and force.
"The Child with Kitten," by John C. Johanson, is one of the impressive portraits exhibited. The grace and youth of childhood is well presented and the animal life of a cat is well set forth in the kitten. The artist has written this book for forcing the child as to make it wax-like, thus giving it it's real child beauty.
The art exhibit is one that no matter how little one understands art, he can enjoy it and it will serve not only to lift one to a higher standard for appreciation of art but will impress on his mind the infinite beauty of nature.
DR. CARLSON WILL TALK
ON "HUNGER" THURSDAY
Where is the seat of hunger? Whence come the all gone feeling? Even the control of hunger and the need to be fed are these are the questions which Dr. Anton Julius Carlson, professor of physiology in the University of Chicago, will discuss in his lecture, "The Hunger." In Fraser Chapel, Thursday.
Doctor Carlson has made an extensive study of the subject of hunger and his book concerning the control of hunger in health and disease comes as a result.

TIGERS HOPES TO DEFEAT JAYHAWK
Missourians Meet Kansans Here Tomorrow and Wednesday Nights
The Tiger quintet, fresh from a one-sided victory over the Polytechnic Institute five at Columbia, Friday, will invade Robinson Gymnasium at 7:15 tomorrow night in high hopes of the Jayhawkers after their showing against the Aggies Friday and Saturday.
The Missourians have been playing some real basketball since their defeat in the last game with the Iowa Aggies in the first Missouri Valley Conference games of the season. They have won three out of four of their Missouri Valley Conference games.
Capt. Fred Williams, Tiger center, is said to be one of the best in the Valley, and probably will make himself heard in the games tomorrow and next week. You get two field baskets and ten free goals in the Polytechnic game Friday night. Vogt, left forward, showed his ability to connect with the basket by barging eight baskets from the field. Viner has been showing up well at the tournament.
The Jayhawker quintet has shown that it is back in fighting trim by staging one of the most remarkable come-backs of the clashes on the ground at Manhattan Saturday night, after being defeated the night before by the one-sided score of 38 to 9. All of the men came out of the clashes without injury, and a policeman's patricia should be playing at their best according to Coach Potsy Clark.
The Jayhawker squad will hold their first practice at seven o'clock tonight in Robinson before they clash with the Tigers in the first of a two-game series tomorrow night. The practice will be in form of floorwork, signal practice, and goal-shooting, which will serve to limber up the players who took part in the Aggie games.
The Tigers are expected to put up a close game according to the coaches and the Jayhawk quintet is going to have to play some real basketball to beat them. The games start at 7:15 and will be over by 8:30.
JAPANESE PROF. AT K. U.
Shin-ichi Takaki Will Specialize in Food Chemistry
Prof. Shin-kii Takaki, of Kio University, Tokyo, Japan, has enrolled in the College for the second semester in chemistry, under Pup H. H., S. Bailey.
Professor Takaki graduated from Harvard in 1903, and since that time has been a professor of English in Kio University. Teaching a foreign language did not appeal to Takaki, however, so he decided to teach it to teachers, in which the students are just beginning to be interested. So he started on a round of the Toki book stores to see what texts could be found on the subject. No Japanese texts were available, but he came across Professor Bailey's book, Source Chemistry and Use of Food Produce and purity of food. He led him to decide upon a course under Professor Bailey at K. U.
In speaking of his teaching, Professor Takaki said the study of English is compulsory in all Japanese universities. One other language, either French or German, is required. Irving's Sketch Book, Macaulay's Essays, Stevenson's Treasure Island, and Ellis's Silas Marner are the English classics most commonly used. Professor Takaki is on the staff of the Japan Magazine, the only one Japan prints in English.

ICE HOCKEY TO BE ADDED
TO ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES
"Plans are under way for promoting interest in ice hockey," said Dr. James Naismith this morning. "One team has already been formed. The rink will be on Potter's Lake. Mr. Shea has agreed to co-operate to make it a success, by flooding the lake. Dave Lupher is managing the first team, and other members of the squash are Ernest Lindsey, Edward Todd, Adrian Lindsey, Edward Courtney, Rope Evans, and John Holden. The member of this team have had experience in ice hockey, and challenge any other team in the University to a game."

Doctor Naismith believes ice hockey to be the fastest of outdoor sports, on account of the speed that the players must have in order to keep after the puck. ___
SPORT BEAMS
Auto Carroll was the first person in Lawrence to receive the results of the first Aggie game, and after recovering from the severe shock, began to give the score to the numerous Jay-hawker fans who called up on him. Allen also covered the calls, because every time, some fan would give vent to his complete surprise before he had time to hang up the receiver.
There was great rejoicing among the Jayhawk fans who crowded in Allie Carroll's sporting store to hear the results of the second Aggie game, when the 16-15 score of the first half was received and marked on the board. Everyone was relieved and apased because free. When the third of the last three games there was some element but not much, because everyone felt sure the Jayhawk quintet hit his stride again after the first slump of the season.
Nebraska is at present the only "dark horse" in the Missouri Valley Conference race, and she is doped to turn white when she meets us. She will be scheduled for 4-15. The Jayhawker quintet is scheduled to meet the Nebrans here from 16-17.
The Aggies are scheduled to meet coach Kennedy's Washburnites next week. The Aggies will also address the Aggies, although the Washburnites will probably score.
The women athletes of the University are now rejoicing over the defeat if the women's basketball team of the Polytechnic Institute at Kansas City Saturday afternoon. Coach Hazel Pratt says she will put the Jayhawkextette up against any women's team in the Missouri Valley.

At present there are eight weight men working out from the freshman team at Jasper High done the best work so far this year, Liggett doing unusual work for a new man. Casey is at home and his absence means the loss of one weight man from the present squad. Warren and Berry, both experienced men, are back on the Missouri squad this year and are going into some hard work if they get eight points in the shot in the Missouri-Kansas meet.

GETS AFRICAN COLLECTION
Specimen From Congo Now in Dyche Museum
The Claud Brown collection of African material, gathered from the Belgian Congo, is now mounted in two large cases, each twelve feet in length, recently installed on the third floor of Dyche Museum.
Claud Brown graduated from the School of Engineering at K. U. in 1908, and made the collection while employed by the Guggenheim interests in South Africa. A similar collection, made by W. H. Brown, who graduated with the class of 1888, is also displayed in one of the cases.
The collections consist of basketry, wood carvings, musical instruments, weapons, utensils, and tools. The basketry and carvings are unique. The collection is unusual, considering the fact that they were made by a primitive tribe. A part of the W. H. Brown collection was made among the pigmies in Central Africa. Maps will be found where the collections were made.
The displays were arranged by Harry Martin, under the direction of his father, Handel T. Martin.

The other Edward D. Bradstreet is an artist, with a studio at 46 Fifth Avenue, New York City, and took his degree at Yale in 1901. Both are descendants of Simon Bradstreet, once colonial governor of Massachusetts, and Anne Dudley Bradstreet, the poet. Simon Bradstreet was one of the earliest Englishmen to time. He was sent to England in 1662, to congratulate Charles II on his restoration to the throne, and later became colonial governor of Massachusetts from 1679 to 1686 and from 1689 to 1692.

Coach Hamilton Looks for Good "Comeback"-Tigers Lead in Valley Race
The Tiger meets the Jayhawk for the first time in 1917 when the fast Tiger quincon invades the stronghold of Robinson gymnastics at 7:15 tonight.
Missouri has one of the best teams in years, and they now head the race for the Missouri Valley Conference basketball championship, with a percentage of .750. Tigers have been working hard all week and expect to "uncork" a few surprises in the game with the Jayhawkers tonight.
"The large score that K. U. ran on Ames is not worrying the Missouri coach because the Tigers were badly crippled at the time they played the game, but it was the respondent of the Kansas City Journal. "The Tigers have been coming fast the last two weeks. All training is now being done with one big object in view—to beat Kansas. Whether the Tigers win or lose, Kansas will need to deal a real game on their hands, is the opinion of the Columbia roots."
MISSOURI COACHES OPTIMISTIC
The Jayhawker quintet is also in the prime of condition, and although thy now hold second place to Missouri in the valley race, they have won more and harder Missouri valley games than the Tigers. The two players came through Friday, and Saturday, cut the Jayhawkers' percentage down to .666. Kansas having won two games from Ames and two from the Aggies.

JAMES C. BARRETT DIES AT HOSPITAL
Sigma Nu Freshman Succumbs to Bronchial Trouble After Short Illness
James C. Barrett, of Concordia, a freshman in the College died at the University hospital at eleven o'clock this morning. His death came as the result of bronchial trouble. He had been ill for ten days.
Mr. Barrett went to the University hospital a week ago. Friday for treatment for sore throat. His case was well under control; he was kopt under close medical attention until his death. He was not considered in grave danger until within a few hours of his death. His doctor had insisted that his bedside before the end came.
The announcement of his death came as a shock to his many friends who were unaware that his condition was *serious*. His father, James P. Barrett, will arrive in Lawrence this evening. His mother, who is in Florida, was notified this morning of her son's death.
Mr. Barrett was eighteen years of age and was a freshman in the Sigma Nu fraternity. He enrolled in the University for the first time last fall and roomed for a short time at 1406 Tennessee but later moved to Sigma Nu house. He was the roommate of Orville McCandless, a junior

Many freak specimens have been, received and among the latest are a two-headed calf and a chocolate-colored skunk. The calf has a neck just slightly longer than its two heads, each almost normal except for the fact that they are grown together. The skunk looks like any other member of this odoriferous species, having a broad white frontal stripe and a white striped ear, up which in the ordinary skunk is black is a light chocolate color.
DAILY HEALTH HINTS
What factors determine our nervous and mental make-up, and how prominent a part does heredity play? Dr. James J. Putnam of Boston presents admirably the modern, optimistic view. He says:
"Fortunately for the educational outlook, the evidence has begun to accumulate that a morbid inheritance is not sufficient to be a useful thing that it has been thought. We come into the world, each one a being of limited capacity, but in other respects free to become what circum- ternates our lives. By extending the extent of our capacity, for our lot,
"There is no original sin, and not even, as it seems to me, original propensity, but only original capacity and original limitation, and even limitation is only another name for latent capacity."

"Company M of the Kansas National Guards, is ready to follow any orders it may receive," said Captain F. E. Jones this morning. "In New York and Pennsylvania the company knows no more than any one else in regard to whether we may see actual service. Contrary to a prevailing opinion, however, the company has not been disbanded. Should war with Germany come to pass, and we are called, it will be found that Company M is standard-setting company that it was on the border last summer."
That the breaking of diplomatic relations does not mean war, is the opinion of Prof. W. W. Davis, of the department of history. "Although history shows that in the majority of cases it does not necessarily follow that we will go to war with Germany, Germany has acted in a very logical manner, but in doing so she has brought about a strained state of relations between herself and the United States. Its results will depend on future actions."
DOES NOT MEAN WAR—DAVIS
TOLD MERCHANTS OF CIVIC SPIRIT
Students of Kansas University and of all colleges are showing much interest in the break of relations and the future developments. In case of war or the introduction of military force, they will be the ones most affected.
"Although a war does not draw am more recruits from college students than from any other body of people of the same age and conditions, yet the colleges feel the loss more keenly," said Prof. B. F. Moore, of the department of history. "They are at an age when they realize their duty to the country, and are quick to respond to call for volunteers."
COLLEGE MEN FEEL WAR MOST
CITIES PETITION CAPPER
Kansas Municipalities Want New State Constitution
The League of Kansas Municipalities has sent resolutions to Governor Capper requesting that the legislature pass the measure permitting the people of the state to vote on the calling of a Constitutional Convention.
The art exhibit has aroused much interest among the women's clubs of Lawrence. The Twentieth Century Women's Club will hold its meeting at the Administration Building today and will present one of the pictures exhibited there. The exhibit is also being well patronized by the students of the University. The pictures now on display will be rephased February 18, by another set pictures, differing not only in scene effects but also in subject matter.
Be It Resolved, That the Legislature Committee of the League of Kansas Municipalities strongly approves and endorses the recommendation of Governor Arthur Capper to vote upon the question of the state permit the people of Kansas to vote upon the question of the calling of a constitutional convention.
The League is composed of cities of almost every county of the state. The following is a copy of the responses sent to the Governor January 29.
William M. Beal, '117, left for his home in Grantville, after having completed his work in the School of Law. He was admitted to the Kansas State Bar last month and will practice law. He is a member of the Phi Delta Phi honorary law fraternity and also of Sigma Chi.
Wayne Limbocker, e'17, made a trip Friday to Kansas City, where he visited his parents.
Winfred Harkrader, c17, having received his A. B, last semester, will return to his home at Pratt, today. He expects soon to get work in a bank.

Bright Future for Local Government, Says Clinton Woodruff
MANAGER PLAN COMING
Is Best Method of Gaining Efficiency In Local Administration
Visiting merchants and University people listening to Clinton Rogers Woodruff tell of the "New Civic Spirit," in his lecture at Francis church yesterday afternoon. Mr, Woodruff spoke from the National Municipal League as secretary of the National Municipal League and as Editor of the National Municipal Review.
NEGLECT CITY GOVERNMENT
Mr. Woodruff called attention to the change in attitude of city people toward the progressive development of the national government has required the constructive abilities of our people, and our city governments have been neglected and allowed to become corrupt. People in municipal affairs and seem not to care how their cities are governed.
SPIRIT CHANGING
"The spirit however is changing. Municipal clubs and leagues are being formed. More votes are being cast at city elections. Attempts of a machinery has resulted in the commission form of government which is a distinct step forward. The latest step is the city manager plan where expert service is required, as would be required by the most efficient plan yet devised.
“People need to, and are getting together, to talk over the affairs of the city, to explain how we are shown in matters of public health and welfare. People want efficient city government, not from an overlord like the German cities get it, but as a re-vision of own aspirations. All this is a part of the growth of the spirit which cares.”
FEW IN LEWIS CONTEST
Last year, by February 1, twelve persons had declared their intention of entering the contest, and when it closed May 2 eleven essays were submitted. The winners last year were Nelson, McKinnon, James Scott, second prize; $75; George Marsall, third prize; $80; and Vanetta Hosford, fourth prize; $25. Nelson was a graduate student, Scott and Marshall were freshmen, Vanetta Hosford a senior. The winning essay each year is published by the University.
Only Five Students Try For University Prizes
Only five students have signified their intention of entering the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis Memorial essay conference, chairwoman of the committee, chairman of the committee in charge. "It seems rather strange," said Professor Hollands, "that so few persons are entering the contest in order that $250 is given in prizes each year."
Outlines of the discussions must be handed in by April 7, and three typewritten copies of the essay must be delivered at the close of the contest, May 5.
"The prizes are large compared with those offered at other universities, and I know of no other case where the winning essay is published by the school." said Professor Hollands. "At other schools suchcomplement features our university life and students work hard on win."
The February meeting of Sigma Xi will be held Thursday, February 8, at 8:00 o'clock at the home of Prof. J. W. Baumgartner, 1209 Ohio. Dr. A. J. Carlson, professor of physiology in the University of Chicago, will read the paper of the evening, "Hunger and Apetite."
DR. CARLSON READS PAPER
AT SIGMA XI MEETING
A business meeting will be held February 15, at 4:30 o'clock, in room 161 Chemistry Building. The report of the Board of Electors will be considered. Nominations to be acted upon at this meeting must be in the hands of the secretary not later than 4:30 p.m., Wednesday, February 7.
Laws Have Book Exchange
A book exchange for law students is kept by Kenneth Lott, '117, and Ernest J. Coppert, '117, in room 201, Green Hall. The exchange is maintained on a commission basis. They deal directly with book firms in Boston, Kansas City and Chicago. They also exchange second hand books.
Partly cloudy and colder tonight and Wednesday.

PROMINENT CHURCHMEN
ISSUE PACE PAMPHLET
PROMINENT CHURCHMEN
Chancellor Frank Strong represents K. U. among the seven hundred prominent churchmen advocating a universal peace league.
This organization has issued a pamphlet that "takes open stand with those who labor for the establishment on the foundation of righteousness."
The message, sent to the church leaders of all nations and the interested business men of the United States, asks for a final move in the spirit of Christianity for a settlement of the present war crisis, decrying the lengues of nations as only a further step toward war.
INCOME MEASURE BY BILL ROUTE
Judiciary Committee Is Against Calling of Constitutional Convention
The possibility of the Permanent Income Bill becoming a law by being made a part of the new Kansas constitution received a set-back yesterday when the judiciary committee voted five to four against the holding of a constitutional convention. The vote was so close in the committee that the chairman had to vote to decide the issue.
At the present, the Income Bill appears to have the best chance of becoming a law by being made a part of the new constitution, although the present legislature seems to be interested in learning about the bill and many of the legislators appear to be in favor of it.
Senator W. S. Thompson, of Hutchinson, while in Lawrence Friday, stated that he was in favor of the Income Bill for the Kansas State schools. Such a bill would provide $45 million per school as other schools of importance have and would provide a permanent income for the various state schools.
MANY CHANGE COURSES
Conflicts Due to the Haste in Enrolling
One freshman a minute. Four hundred eighty freshmen a day.
This is the record made by Prof. L. E. Sisson, who checked, the courses of the freshmen as they enrolled for the second semester. Those who checked the courses of the upper classmen in an interaction were made naturally, mistakes were made and courses had to be changed later.
Haste in enrolling, laboratory conflicts, and closed courses are responsible for the large number of changes being made daily since enrollment day, according to Mr. C. B Esterly, executive director of the program. Mostately 500 changes have been made in schedules, the larger part of which were made Saturday.
"The enrolling is necessarily done in haste and mistakes are sure to slip by the overseers," said Mrs. Esterly this morning. "Very few changes are made because of dissatisfaction, but because of conflicts and errors made in enrolling. The reasons given for changing courses this semester have been fewer, and better than ever before."
SHOW UNIVERSITY NEEDS
TO STATE LAWMAKERS
Pictures are shown of the K. U. campus, Green Hall, McCook Field, North College, Potter's Lake, a Missouri-Kansas football game, and of figures showing the large enrollment of K. U. as compared to that of nearby universities, and the small comparative appropriation. Other pictures are shown of the devices which the state schools are doing for the states. The series of about twenty pictures are changed every day.
An automatic slide showing the work done by the state educational institutions has been installed by the Board of Administration in the state house at Topeka near the legislative halls. The plan to show pictures of the various school buildings and the work being done by the students in these schools was conceived by the secretary of the Board.
PROF. BAILEY TO CONFER
WITH FOOD EXPERTS
Prof. H. P. Cady gave a liquid air demonstration to a large crowd in Topkaka last night. He will give a demo on Hawaii the latter part of this week.
Prof. E. H. S. Bailley of the department of chemistry, left this morning for Topeka to confer with government food experts in regard to fixing the standard by which food is traded in the Kansas Food inventory.

Lunchcups are being served at Bricklein in the special banquet room. Situated at 850 Main Street,
Late trains and snow storms are doing their best to keep speakers of the Merchants' Short Course from their engagements. Notwithstanding meetings are increasingly in attendance, getting more and more interested.
"If this splendid weather keeps up," said Secretary Hamilton this morning, "we will have greater attendance than ever before. Ten women have enrolled in the course and are attending every meeting."
ATTENDANCE GROWS

Edgar described Advertising Schemes
and Selling Plans that have worked
for other merchants.
The attendance is exceeding the record of last year. At noon last year the enrollment was 117. The enrollment at noon today was 125.
"I'te the little things that count in the advertising line," said Mr. Edgar. "A 'I teach him hardly worth mentioning, but not novel'ous carrying out of this plan often means success. Curiosity, among customers is a great help to the merchant, and helps to bring the business. An insight into human nature is a necessary adjunct."

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the University of Kansas, to go further than merely print the news and to provide a university varsity holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be friendly; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all; to serve to the students of the University.
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1917.
Duty makes us do what things well, but it also helps to them beautifully—Philipa Brooks.
WHAT IS OUR ANSWER?
Is the college man of the west opposed to, or in favor of compulsory military training?
If opposed, is he opposed to the degree of absolutely condemning the spirit of military training, compulsory or not compulsory?
If not opposed, is he in favor of universal compulsory military service; or of compulsory training in our colleges and universities in place of gymnasium; or of elective courses in military tactics?
In other words, to what degree has the military spirit permeated the student body here at K. U.?
- * * *
These questions seem only fair in light of the importance of the question at this particular time. The breaking off of diplomatic relations with Germany by the United States has brought the question of preparedness only too freshly to our minds, and the University man who does not think seriously on the means of meeting the present crisis, be it with arms or diplomacy, is "an intellectual mollycoddle."
The University of Kansas has had plenty of opportunity to see military training in the colleges with which we come in contact. Missouri, Nebraska and the Kansas Aggies all have military companies in connection with the schools, and work in the school regiment is substituted for gym work. Instead of a practically distinct company as we have here at the University, these schools have a number of large companies connected directly with the university. Practically every man has a taste of military training before he leaves school.
- * * *
Some agitation was raised last year by the president of the Student Council in favor of compulsory training at K. U. On the other side Chancellor Strong and a number of other prominent faculty men defended our present system.
With matters standing as they are today, however, the question of military training takes on a different angle, and deserves more serious treatment. But a few days ago representatives of the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton, Lehigh, Georgetown, Yale, Harvard, and George Washington University, appeared before the Senate Military Affairs Committee representing their various school as overwhelmingly in favor of universal military training.
This endorsement, they say, is not due to hysteria due to the present war in Europe, for the sentiment in favor of military training was shown by the large attendance at the student mill-
tary training camps in the east for two years before the war.
The east, however, looks at the war from a different viewpoint than the west. The great struggle assumes greater proportions in the coast states than in the middle western states, and war is served for breakfast, dinner, supper and between dances.
- * *
Nevertheless the fact that the military spirit is not as strong here should not make the seriousness of the situation any less felt. What is finally done by the government will of necessity be done by the whole country, and we in the west are as interested as those in the east.
The Kansan would like to hear student sentiment on the question of compulsory military training.
The 8:18 car yesterday morning carried seventy-nine up the hill to early classes. On days like yesterday it seems only plausible that the street car company could anticipate a crowd before 8:30 classes and provide an extra car.
SIDE-SHOWS FOR YOU MR. MERCHANT
Mr. Merchant while you are here as a student, we want to show you how the University is helping you and your community, how the school is assisting the state in education, democracy, and public service. Over in the chemistry laboratory we will explain the method by which your own city water is tested for its purity; the entomology department will explain its means of protecting the vegetable and plant life of your community; a visit to the political science classes will enable you to learn of the defects in your city, state, or national government; while the engineering faculty and students will be glad to explain municipal sanitation, drainage, paving, and similar projects that you, as a citizen, are frequently called upon to consider. Every department of the University has something of interest to you and it is our desire that you call and be shown. This is your University and we want you to learn of its organization and service. Drop around in the mornin!
OUT OF A BOOK
John Spargo, probably the greatest Socialist in this country today, and writer of world-wide repute on Socialistic problems, spoke to an audience made up of merchants and students in Fraser Hall this afternoon.
As a thinker on social problems, Mr. Spargo has few superiories in the nation today, and as a matter of general educational value rather than of taking sides with the causes of Socialism, Mr. Spargo has many passages from his book, "Socialism."
"It is not such a terrible thing, after all!" (the epithet Utopian). To hitch our wagon to a star, as Emerson advised us, is to be guilty of being Utopians. For if our star is really a star, and not a mere lantern hung out to deceive us, we shall never reach it with our wagon; the end of that year will come when we star. If, knowing this, we aim at the stellar goal we may not reach, we are Utopians and fit subjects for the reproaches of our more practical fellows who hitch their wagons to the nearest street-lamps instead of to stars. So there are many things worse than being a Utopian,—to be a pulpit perverter of the gospel, for example, or even a legislator with one hand constantly employed in the rewards for faithful service to Privilege; so known be known as the dreamer of beatific dreams than as the alderman who sold his vote to a public service corporation seeking a franchise.
"Most persons are somewhat started when they hear some Socialist agitator say, Socialism is not all designed to be the design for the destruction of all the institutions so painfully involved through the uncounted years of human struggle, and the building of a social edifice upon the ruins of the old.
"The Socialist of today is just an ordinary mortal like yourself, calling attention to the signs of social growth.
"Nature's law is inequality. Mountain and valley and plain in the physical world have their counterparts in human nature. No Socialist believes that the diversities of human nature can be swept away. When the climate changes, commonwealth is attained there still will be mountains of genius rising above the plain of life. . . It is today that genius is repressed; the
"Socialism is an expression of faith in man.
dull level of life is a present reality."
Socialism is most grievously mis understood and misrepresented when it is believed to be opposed to private property. The common owner-owner relationship is everything good. Good people still believe to be involved in the Socialist program, has, in fact, nothing to do with it. . . The American Socialist of today is much nearer to Aristotle's belief in the maintenance of private property, and its approximate equalization than the current state of all private property. . . The socialization of property in the Social State would be confined to (1) such as in their nature could not be held by private owners without subjecting the community to exploitation or humiliation; (2) such things as the citizens must agree to own in common a superior efficiency in their management.
"... no man is really free whose life is controlled by another, who depends upon other other man for the sake of his bread in the sweat of his brow.
"This, then, is the challenge of Socialism: No man is good enough to be master of another man's bread, of another man's job, of another man's life. These are great things which he is master of his analysis, for whoever is master of a man's bread, of his opportunities to labor, is master of his life."

FIRST PROBLEM IS FOR NATION
"In Our Interests In Business Don't Forget Country," Sol Westerfeld
At the noon lunchroom at the Oread cafe today Sol Westef尔德, who spoke this morning on anti-trailing-stamp merchants of the importance of the present war crisis and of every man being "American First."
"It is a fine thing for you merchants to be able to meet and talk over your problems together, and hear men of national reputation on the ground. I know that said Mr. Westerfield, "but there is a more vital question facing every American citizen today than the welfare of his business. It is the welfare of the country. We are connected us with families, and has given us the opportunity to prosper."
"It should make no difference where a man's parents were born, or where the man himself was born, he should be loyal to the grand old country that has fostered him and his for so many years. A man cannot help but feel conflict, but all his sympathies should be swept aside when he considers the position of the United States in the present world crisis."
Mr. Westerfield is a naturalized American citizen, having immigrated tc this country from Germany in 1888. He speaks slightly broken English, but the sincerity of his remarks brings applause time and time again from the sixty merchants who attended the luncheon.
'TIS TRUE THE STORY HAS BEEN TOLD BEFORE A Failing of Mere Man.
"Yes, boys. I've sworn off on Old Lady Nicotine," said a K. U, student, as he swelled out his chest and straightened up an inch or two.
"About five minutes ago."
"Good! Good!" came a chorus from his companions. "When did you quit, old man?" continued one interested listener.
"Bobuh?" answered one of the boys.
"I'll bet you will be sucking that old pipe again before the end of the week."
"Not on your life. Tell you, feliows, it is a useless, lullish habit. A man who smokes is a spineless molly-coddle. Why does a man continue to make himself a walking nuisance to society by saturating his clothes and his breath with the odor of tobacco? For me, I'm tired of having every girl I talk to sniff as though I were the proprietor of a skunk farm."
"Since you have quit, you might as well grate your quitter of yours," you said. "And the men."
"Oh, I see!" returned the other man knownlv.
"Not on your life; if you want a pipe, go buy you one for two bits. I'm going to keep this pipe as a souvenir of all my foolishness."

He retired early.
The next day, it seemed that every man he met offered him a smoke, but he stuck by his resolution with the Spartan. He spoke to him a few days, however, he had quarrels with two of his best friends; he was touchy and restless; he could not concentrate his mind upon anything.

When the fellows came in from supper, they found all the good resolutions going up in a cloud of smoke from a well-seasoned briar.

RODKEY BREAKS
FORMER RECORD
Captain of Track Team Lowers Time in Half Mile
Little has been heard of the Kansas Aggie track team this season, no word having leaked out of Aggieville as to what sort of a team they will have this winter. Keys, the star two-miler of last season, is said to be working on a new training team that is eligible the track team will be greatly strengthened. Collier was the best dash man in the state high school meet held two years ago.
Fred Rodkey, captain of the track team, broke the Robinson Gymnasium record for the half mile yesterday afternoon, by running the distance in 2.04 flat. The former record was 2.04:4, made by Rodkey last year. The men who regularly runs the two mile game finished seven seconds after Rodkey.
K. U. will have a star team in the dashes next year if all of the men now in school come out for work next year. Haddock and Schwartz, two Kansas players who will meet all of the high school meets in which they have been entered. Rustenbach will be back next year and he is going fine for the Varsity right now. Grissom, a Syracuse man, is the other fast man or the daisy girl that note that Missouri will not have Simpson to win their track meets for them.
Atwood and Pattinson did some fine vaulting Monday. Two new poles were added to the list of track equipment yesterday and a number of new boxes were shot, but practically all the are ineligible for the Varsity this year.

At eleven-thirty, Sol Westerfeld, the champion of the anti-trading stamp legislation and price maintenance told of the evils of the stamp and its relation to the welfare of the merchants. Mr. Westerfield will give another talk Wednesday concerning the high cost of living.

Ohio State has adopted a novel method of teaching football. An instructor in photography has made a collection of photographs of many of the championship games, these being shown as lantern slides. Coach Murphy of Northwestern has asked the Ohio coach for copies of these films.
The Missouri center, Captain Fred Williams, is said by several coaches to be one of the best centers in the valley, and his playing will probably be as spectacular as that of Cross of the Emporia Normals who made the Jayhawker fans cheer by his ability. He will find his match when he meets a Jayhawker by the name of Lytle.
The Jayhawker goal-shooters and the coaches well know that if Kansas should lose to the Tiger that the Valley championship would be practically lost, and this alone is sufficient to make the Jayhawkers fight from the time the whistle opens the game until it announces the close.
If Kansas wins both games the Jayhawkers will maintain their lead in the valley race with a most likely chance of winning the championship.

SENATE TO DECIDE CONVENTION TODAY
Question of Constitutional Revision Now Before State Legislature
GOVERNOR FAVORS BILL
The question of a constitutional convention comes up in the senate of the Kansas legislature today. Whether or not the state is to have a new constitution or not will be determined largely by the action of the senate.
Measure Has Better Chance of Becoming Law Through Convention
The present constitution was framed sixty years ago, and the Kansas Better Government League and many of the citizens of Kansas hold that a new constitution is needed. The governor and many of the leaders of better government are back of the chair for a constitutional convention. The governor will be sented in the senate today states two-tirds of the members of the present legislature consider it necessary that a convention be called.
REVISION MAY BE NEEDED
NEW YORK MAY BE NEEDED New York has a provision in its constitution providing for a possible revision of the law every twenty years. Many of the states of the convention feel it is at least fair that the legislature permit the people to decide by vote whether they want a new constitution or not.
INSURES HEALTHY GROWTH
At present the Permanent Income Bill which has been introduced in the legislature will have a better chance of becoming a law by being drafted into a new constitution than by being passed by the legislature as one of the three amendments to the present constitution.
JOBS AND HEALTH GROWTH The Inquiry Bill means a health and permanent growth for state schools and therefore it is of vital importance to the students of the University that it become a law; the sooner the better.
Many of the nearby states have the permanent income idea as a law for the benefit of their state schools. The results obtained in these schools are surprising to the average student. Large building programs are in force at these schools, resulting in better buildings, better equipment, splendid ventilation, excellent teachers, and constant improvements.
CHAPERONS WANT CHANCE TO DANCE
Fill Out Her Program in Advance and Avoid the Push
Rush
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 7. 1917.
That chaperons should be shown more courtesy by the students, was the opinion given by Mrs. Eustace H. Brown, adviser of women, this morn- er day, that she was formed as a result of inquiries as to the neglect shown in that respect.
A formal invitation to members of the faculty does not necessarily imply that they are requested to act as chaperons. If it is desired that they be provided with a written consent expressly for this purpose and their consent obtained, Conveyances and escorts should be provided and chaperons should be notified of this provision. If the chaperon wishes to dance, her program may be filled out by a trained chaperon. Several chaperons, care should be taken that they are introduced to each other.
"There is no social function," according to Mrs. Brown "at which men and women are both present, which does not demand the presence of a chaperon. There can be no reason why any special function should be done on an organization cannot secure one itself or secure one through the adviser of women who has a list on file, of available chaperons.
"The neglect in the treatment of chaperons is found not alone among the freshmen but among the older students as well. These things may seem of minor importance but attention to these little things can add but little to numerous duties, and they will make the work of chaperon less irksome and as a consequence, chaperons more easy to obtain.
Because of the Merchants' Short Course meetings in Fraser Chapel, the convocation for women will be held on Friday, February 16, instead of the 9th.
Mrs. Eustace H. Brown.
Advisor of Women.
OREAD AND LAWRENCE
HIGHS TO MEET IN DEBATE
...
Oread high school and Lawrence high will meet Friday night to debate the question, "Resolved, that the president should be elected for a single term of six years." The members of the Oread squad are: George Coffin, Curtis Strong, and Lawrence Coffin. Three more judges will be Prof. B. F. Moore, Prof. R. D. O'Leary, and Ralph Spotts.
In meeting Lawrence high school, Oread will find stiff competition, for the city high school is trying to avenge last year's defeat.
NOTED ENGINEER LECTURES FRIDAY
Doctor Waddell to Talk on "Engineering Economics" in Marvin Hall
Dr. J. A. L. Waddell, a consulting engineer of international reputation, will deliver three lectures on "Engineering Economics" in Marvin Hall Hill. These lectures will be given at 8:30, 11:30, and 14:30 of the senior, junior, and sophomore engineering classes will be excused to attend the lectures. Although every one is invited to hear these lectures, the talk at 8:30 will be in character and probably the most interesting to the general public.
Plans have been worked out whereby a joint committee, composed of the committee on engineering affairs of the K. U. Alumni Association and the K. U. University School of Engineering, select men to give a series of lectures to the engineers each year. These men, who are to be alumni of the University whenever possible, will be recognized as highly appointed lecturers and have as staff members of the University teaching staff in their respective subjects.
For this year two lecturers have been appointed, Doctor Waddell and J. S. Worley, e'04, a member of the Commission committee of the Interstate Commission. Mr. Worley will lecture on "Transportation" some time in March.
Owing to the fact that Doctor Waddell has been called to New York, where he will remain until late in the spring, he will give his entire series of lectures on Friday and not onSep 18th. He will lecture during activities in foreign countries he was decorated by the Czar of Russia and the Emperor of Japan.
WAR DECIDES SOCIALISM
Spargo Declares Allies Champions of Socialism
"Socialism once in power will mean the ultimate end of all wars," said John Spargo, distinguished economist at the University Club last evening.
The fate of the socialistic movements, Mr. Spargo claims, rests on the outcome of the present war. If the Central Powers win the war, militarism will predominate; but if it succeeds, obvious, Europe will become socialized. "We need allied trenches," he added, "we find the soldiers holding socialist Alliance."
A fellowship in the University of Kansas for the second semester of the current year is made vacant by the resignation of Gerhard Baerg, Dean F. W. Blackmar announces. This fellowship pays $140 for the half year. It is open to competition by graduates of this University, and of other Universities and colleges, holding a Bachelor's degree.
Spargo is the author of several books treating social problems. One of these, "The Bitter Cry of Children," is considered the highest expression of socialistic doctrine in its influence upon social conditions.
UNIVERSITY FELLOWSHIP
NOW OPEN TO GRADUATES
The mechanical engineers will meet at the home of Prof. A. H. Sluss at 1122 Ohio street tomorrow night to discuss plans and set the date for their annual meeting. It is probable they will be held some Thursday, and that the meeting day will be devoted to speech-making and celebration.
Mechanicals Plan Celebration
Applications must be in on or before February 10, 1917. Application blanks may be obtained at the dean's office.
Commerce Club will meet tomorrow night at the Sigma Chi house.
It was announced in the Kansan several days ago that the fellowship was in German. Bean Blackmar said he might be in the fellowship might be in any department.

John Spargo, noted Socialist lecturer and writing speaker to a large audience in Fraser chapel yesterday on "The Real Meaning of Socialism," said the Socialists had been misunderstood.
Nothing, said Mr. Spargo, could be farther from the truth than this conception. Speaking of private property, Mr. Spargo said: "All property, tools and functions of society divide themselves naturally into two classes, those that are essentially individual in function and those that are distinctively collective in function. The individual ones, the Socialists contend, could be left to the individual to possess, not necessarily the latter, but those that are collective and municipal in function, that is, those that minister to the wants of society as a whole should be owned, operated and controlled by society itself.
"Socialists contemplate nothing less than a complete reorganization of society. This reorganization would reconstruct society on a basis of private ownership and individual possession of all economic goods of an individual or common ownership and social direction of all enterprises of a social nature.
This, he said, was due to the fact that the pioneers in the movement had failed to state clearly and precisely what the Socialist party had result of this failure people came to believe the Socialists would, if given an opportunity, reorganize society on a basis that would eliminate the institution and discourage individual enterprise.
EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY
"Socialism has never held that the ideal of equality could be realized," continued Mr. Spargo. "All it asks is equality of opportunity." He made an eloquent plea for the poor who are crowded together in the tenements of laurentianapolis that such people were asking that such Socialists were asking that they be given an opportunity, and urged it be made impossible for one comparatively small class of people to own the things upon which the lives of other people depend.
EXPLAINS MOTIVES
MERCHANTS ENJOY PLAY,
"ANYTHING FOR A CHANGE"
The dramatic art class of the department of public speaking entertained the merchants attending the night in Green Hall with the forces "Aware Change." The class had given the play previously under the direction of Professor MacMurray and it was repeated to break the routine of the play, which has a very comprehensive program on serious, practical subjects.
MERCHANTS GET WIDE EDUCATION
The work of the student actors apparently pleased the merchants. The students who took part were: Muriel King, Verna Makepeace, Emma Maze Rummel, Leland Howlin, Albert Richmond, and Herbert Smith.
Variety of Subjects Gives Visitors Much Knowledge in One Week
Chamber of Commerce to be Hosts at Banquet in the Evening
GOOD PROGRAM TOMORROW
"The variety of subject-matter of fored the merchants this week is all most equal to a complete education," said one of the merchants this morning, "and in doing so, in using the uses of the modern university, the war question, socialism, civic spirit, accounting and the high cost of living all in one week taught by men who have had so much practical experience that lectures are filled with good things.
The program tomorrow offers the same variety that has been offered since the course started. The meetings start at eight-thirty and quit at five-thirty to be renewed at six-thirty with the banquet given by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce in F. A. U. Hall.
The merchants in this one week should be able to get as much of University subjects as the students gets at Stanford. The opportunity is offered."

Barrett's Body to Concordia
The body of James C. Barrett, the Sigma Nu freshman, who died at the University hospital yesterday, was taken to Concordia today. The remains were accompanied by his father, James P. Barrett, and his uncle, George Layton. Funeral services will not be held until the latter part of the week, awaiting the return of his mother from Florida.
SPARGOISMS
The first definition of socialism, defining it as the collective or public ownership and control under democratic management of all means of production, distribution, and exchange, is a suitable doctrine for candidates for a lunatic asylum.
A wheelbarrow, in terms of economics, is a primitive contrivance designed for the transportation of relatively small bodies over relatively small distances by human power.
The failure of its advocates to state with clarity the real meaning of socialism is the reason for so much misunderstanding of it.
Things that don't fit, like Charlie Chaplain's clothes, promote our amusement.
Socialism requires the reorganization of the economic life of society upon the basis of private ownership under public direction, of things individualistic in character and the democratic ownership of things socialistic in character.
The equality of opportunity for every child of the universe to develop its ability to the fullest extent can not be denied. That is what socialism stands for.
A child can't have equality of opportunity without the privilege of equality in being well born.
The modern railroad differs from the wheelbarrow only in degree of development.
There is more moral, mental, and spiritual dynamite in the demand for equality of opportunity than in all the I. W. W. speeches ever given.
ALL UNIVERSITY CLASSES
DISMISSED FEB. 1
All classes in the University will be dismissed on Lincoln's birthday, Monday, February 12, Chancellor Strong announced to day. Lincoln's birthday at the University for several years. Last year it fell on Saturday.
About five years ago the state made the birthday of Lincoln a legal holiday, as well as that of Washington. Since then this holiday has been observed by all of the public schools in the state.
DR. GRAY TO GIVE RELIGIOUS TALKS
Noted Kansas City Minister Will Conduct Campaign Here Next Week
Dr. Joseph M. M. Gray will be in Lawrence, February 11, 12, and 13, to conduct a religious campaign among the University students. "A Group of Modern Messages to University and Women" will form basis for talks. He will come here from the Grand Avenue Temple of Kansas City.
Doctor Gray is one of the leading speakers of the Middle-West, and has the reputation of preaching to more men on Sunday than any other minister in the country. He has talked to students of many leading universities in this part of the country, but this is his first appearance in Lawrence. He offers the offers of three other schools in order to come to Lawrence next week.
DR. J. M. M. GRAY
This is the only religious campaign being planned by any organization on the Hill this year. The University Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. are cooperating in bringing this speaker to the University. Doctor Gray is a comparatively young man, coming from the East to Kansas City.
The series of talks will open Sunday night at the Methodist church at 7:45 o'clock. Monday at 4:30 o'clock he will speak at Myers Hall to the University, and Tuesday at the same place, and talk to K. U. women. He will speak at the Methodist church Monday an Tuesday nights.
BIBLE CLASSES TO MEET
Five Courses Are Offered This Semester
The first classes in the School of Religion at Myers Hall and Westminster will be held Thursday evening from seven to eight o'clock. Enrollment last semester was 101 and the attendance was exceptionally good. The courses that will be offered this term are as follows:
Principals of Religious Education Dean Kelley; The Bible as Literature, Gordon B. Thompson; Social Teachings of Jesus, Professor Elmer; Life of Christ, Arthur Braden; Comparative Religions, Stanton Olliver
All these courses carry credit in the School of Religion. The certificate of the school of religion is granted for four semester hours work and a diploma for eight semester hours. All the above listed courses are held in Myers Hall except the one taught by Doctor Ollinger, Comparative Religions, which is held at West-minister Hall.
Only Two Names Like It
When one considers the most common of names, like Smith and Jones and Brown, he should in turn look for the less well known names, J. C. Ferciot, manager of the Omahia branch of the Western Union, who talked to the merchants yesterday afternoon, believes he has the most uncommon name in the world. He has two brothers. And these three are the only Ferciots in the world as far as he can find.
K. U. FIVE WINS IN GREAT SPURT
Missouri's 6-Point Lead Cut Down in Last Minute of Play
KAUDER'S GOAL FEATURE
Long Shot From Mid-Court Puts Kansas in Striking Distance
The Tigers started with a rush and opened the scoring with a free goal by Captain Williams, the Tiger star center. Harry Viner, Tiger left guard added two more points after two minutes of play with a basket from the field, giving the Tigers a three point lead.
Twelve hundred enthusiaste Jay-hawker rooters simply went wild last night as the Crimson and Blue goal-scorers, whose minutes of play and overcame a six point lead by the Tigers, and won the game thirty seconds before the final whistle blew when Rudolf Uhlrlaub scored in foul on Shirkey, Tiger left forward.
AND TUCK FIGHT
Rudolf Ulbricht left it afftwr, scored first for Kansas after about five minutes of play with a long shot from the sidelines. Then Williams gave the Tigers a five point lead by throwing two free goals and a field basket. Lyle added two for Kansas with a basket from a difficult angle, and James Thomas threw another free goal, and Gilbert two points for Kansas from the field.
Vogt, Tiger forward, connected for a field goal, followed by a free goal by Williams. Rudolf Uhrlaub counted on William to rush Lassett, Jayhawker guard, and held the field basket, bringing Kansas within two points of the Tigers. Williams followed with two free goals. Rudolf Uhrlaub made two on a short shot. The coach he added a free toss, and the half ended 13 to 12 in favor of the Tigers.
SHIFT TURNS TIME
Williams opened the scoring in the second half with a free throw on a technical foul on Gibbens. Laslett tied the score a minute later by caging one from the sidelines. Williams threw another free goal and R. Uhrlub added another one tying the ball again. The Kansas lineup was shiftless. Gaup going in at right forward, and Lyttle in guard, while Ernst Uhrlub went in at center. Shepard replaced Slusher for Missouri.
The Jayhawkers now six points behind began a bombardment of the goal netting five points, in three minutes. Williams immediately counted a free kick. Tiger goal making the score 23 to 21 and Urlahrute and a half to play. Kauder tied the score with the most spectacular shot of the game a long one from the center of the field. Rudolf Uhrlaub by putting Kansas in the lead with a free goal thirty seconds before the pistol shot closed the game.

DAILY HEALTH HINTS
By the University Health Committee
Neurasthenia may be described as a condition of fatigue of the entire nervous system, combined with abnormal nervous irritability.
The American people are no more inherently liable to suffer from this disease than are the Sandwich Islanders. Place the blame where it belongs—on our national disregard for the ordinary laws of hygiene.
Overstimulation accounts for many of our lills. A baby cries because he is over-fed, or because he is sleepy and tired, or because bad air is poisoning him—and what does the fond parent do? 23. The mother knee, rings bells, blows whistles, ties keys in his face, and starts the Victrola.
The Weather
Generally fair tonight and Thursday, except unsettled in extreme east portion tonight; colder Thursday.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1917
“R-r-r-r-e-e-e-e-vench is ours!”
A grateful thought towards heaven is of itself a prayer—Lessing.
EAT 'EM UP
Again the Tiger's hide is stretchea on the tanning board and the first nails have been put into it. Tonight the job will be finished, and the bitter taste left over from Thanksgiving time will be gone.
The game last night was a battle from start to finish. Neither side can accuse the other of being wall-eyed lucky. The team won that fought the hardest the whole game through.
If there was ever a display or fighting to the last ditch it was seen last night in Robinson Gymnasium. Both teams played hard and fast basketball. Many said a faster game had never been played on the local floor.
Whether or not the victory is complete will be determined in the game tonight, and that game will be fully as hard fought as the game last night. It will be a battle from the opening whistle to the last gun.
And K. U. will round out the victory by a more decisive score than last night.
If the "Beat Missouri" spirit is still as rampant in old K. U. as it was in the old days—and last fall, Robinson Gymnasium won't hold half the crowd that comes up to see the game tonight.
Usually when we have guests we clean up our front yards at least. We seem to be in no position, however to convince the powers behind the Lawrence Street Cars of the advisability of washing their car windows when so many merchants from out over the state ride up the hill to their lectures every morning.
THE QUESTION
Does the University of Kansas want Military Training? That is the question that confronts not only our school, but the colleges and universities in all parts of the country. Many of the bigger schools where military training has not been enforced heretofore have asked for regular courses in military tactics and field training.
Are the advantages of military training bigger than the probabilities of the inculcation of the black spirit of militarism into the life of American education, or is there no real danger on this score? Some say the problem differs in various parts of the country. Is the man from the east enough of a type so that military training does not materially alter his spirit? Is it the truth that the western youth is of more plastic nature, his spirit being absolutely moulded by the kind of training he receives in his college years?
All these are problems which must
be answered by this nation in the present crisis, and college men must take the lead. There are other questions, probably of more vital significance, but these must be answered.
Are the students of the University prepared—or preparing to answer them?
The following item from the Depawu Daily illustrates what a brilliant imagination can do when hard-up for news;
Kansas students have no excuse for being late to classes. The University has installed a jitney service at its own expense, and a decrease of fifty per-cent in tardiness has already been noted.
JUST FELLOWS AGAIN
Good afternoon, Mr. Merchant!
We're glad to see you. There are some new faces among you, and to those of you who are tardy we give a hearty hand-shake. We're sorry you have missed so many of the good lectures and so much of the good times.
Let's sit down and have a little chat. Fine weather we're having, isn't it? We couldn't ask for much nicer for this time of year.
Of course you like the program of speeches and the round tables and the special entertainments, but what do you think of the school in general the students and the profs? Of course you've met a bunch of them. They're pretty good fellows, aren't they, and they don't seem so much like kids as they used to around home.
Have you visited any of our classes yet? No. Well, you surely don't want to miss a treat like that before you go home. Practically every one of our courses are interesting. Yes sir! modern education isn't dry as a bone. Just come into this American Government class, or this class in Shakespeare, or in Public Speaking, or Water Analysis, or Mechanics, or Newspaper Writing, or Contracts, or Equity Jurisdiction, or most any old class whose door you find nearest the place where you happen to be standing.
You will be welcome, and you will get a different idea about education. Just make yourselves at home. Feel perfectly informal around here, and be just one of us—all students, for the week, at least.
Spring is surely here. The F. A. students are out with their boards sketching the campus.
FEBRUARY 7
This is the birthday of Charlea Dickens. How many have even remembered this today?
We have laughed, cried, felt horror stricken or indignant with Mr. Pickwick, Little Nell, Bill Sykes or Madam Lefarge. The more mention of the fact that today is his birthday brings back the memories of hours spent sympathising with little David Copperfield, laughing with a tear in the corner of our eyes at the devotion of Samuel Weller to Mr. Pickwick, and delighting in the beautiful writing in the "Christmas Carols."
Just why the Jayhawker force should hold forth in the Museum is beyond us. Certainly not for atmosphere. Could it be they are seeking animation or maybe advice from Hank Maloy's famous string of stuffed owls.
What a debt the world owes Charles Dickens for the pleasure and inspiration that his works have given it.
"For Armenian Relief," reads a placard announcing a dance but who believes in signs? Also who is the Armenian?
There usually is considerable local color toe, in the conglomeration of "fork holds" which students bring here with them. Why not a prize essay contest on the subject, "The fork as an instrument of torture?"
The Frosh who returns from home with a new suit usually brings back a plentiful touch of local color.
And while speaking of well ventilated structures what about the Lawrence street cars?

A LITTLE THING Editor, Daily Kansan;
"You might use some of the fancy
names," Josh, brought home
from college," says Erica.
Just when is the athletic management of the University going to show the student body a little consideration for their time and place at the sport calendar reveals that again this year the high school basketball tournament and the indoor meet with Missouri at Kansas City come on the same week-end, and the student body is going to find itself struggling on the fence between two fires.
"Well, I am new a C. P. A.," announced the sophomore, on discovering his grade in the final of the accounting course to be an average.
It is not right. Every loyal Jayhawker who can possibly afford it wants to be down in Convention Hall backing the track squad, and yet he is to be handicapped because the high school team from his home town is in Lawrence, under his care or staying at the house of an organization that offers a host, is contributing financially toward the success of the tournament by furnishing lodging and eatables for the high school lads, and yet his thanks from the athletic department amounts to the latter scheduling the track meet on the same week-end so that he either must deny himself the privilege of seeing his own alma mater battle the ancient foe at Kanada, or else provide him with pies off, leaving the high school guests to shift for themselves. If the athletic management did not depend on the students to take care of the teams but instead paid all the expenses itself; if both events were not of such vital interest to the students; and finally, if the success of the meet in Kansas City did not depend to such a large extent upon the support of the team, neither might not be so deplorable. But, as it is, the writer cannot understand the object of the athletic management in so handicapping the students. Surely the persons who make athletics possible here should be given more consideration when the dates are arranged.

"The Machine You Will Eventually Buy"
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
WITH THE VISITORS
Gov. Arthur Capper, because of important legislative business, cannot talk to the merchants tonight as scheduled. Instead, C. W. Miller, of Dayton, Ohio, will show a three-reel movie. "The Trebles of a Store-keeper." He will lecture as the picture is being shown.
"We haven't as many out-of-the-state enrollments this year because other states bounding Kansas are conducting these merchants" short courses," said Secretary Hamilton this morning. "Texas and Colorado have their own Merchants' Weeks." This assessment tendance from out of the state down lower than in any of the previous years."
H. Leslie Wildey, the Grainger,talking, Iowa, anti-mail-order merchant, talked this afternoon at four-thirty on "Three Reasons for Mail-Order Competition." He withdrew from the mail houses and how he won the people of the town to his side.
A list of the days to be emphasized by the merchant in his advertising during the year was given to each merchant last night by A. E. Edgar, who talked on "Advertising Sales and Marketing." The master of the human nature of the customer by making your advertising timely," he said.
“Arrange your store so that things will harmonize,” said Oto Buehrmann at nine-thirty this morning, talking of Store Arrangement. “Place mirrors appropriate backgrounds in the millinery and be neat and tasty. It counts.”
At one-thirty Mr. Buehrmann ex-
plained usages to the bank unknown
before it was used.
The most timely of lectures was given at two-thirty this afternoon by Geo. A. Nicols. He outlined the policies the merchant should pursue in the present war crisis. Mr. Nicols is an advertising man of Chicago.
"This man Harper of the accounting department of the University is great," said one of the merchants yesterday. "He is so full of his subject that the hour allows him doesn't make it. He is talking to the merchants are talking about H. D. Harper, who has given four talks concerning the handling of accounts by
the merchants. Today his subject was "Records and Handling of Cash."
The entertainment being furnished by the different K. U. organization is pleasing the merchants. Monday is the minute recital. Last night the Dramatic Club presented a pleasing farce. Tonight Miss Pearl Emily will work as a pipe organ recital after which Prof. Murra will give selected readings.
The spirit of informality is the one big feature of the Short Course meetings. The round table discussions are led by some retailer who acts only as chairman, remaining mercurial talk. Questions are answered by the imported speakers.
These merchants are mighty good,
students as attendance goes. The eight-thirty classes find the men ready for work and the four-thirty meetings.
And they attend the night entertainment-
instead of the movies down town.
She Enters a New Realm
"Go! your date for the Girl
Prom?"
BY THE WAY—
For once in the history of mankind, no girl will have to miss a formal party because she lacks that necessary accompaniment known as a date. For, in good sooth, if she hasn't been asked for one, she can go forth and meet her owner and enjoy the novel sensation. That is just exactly what she is going to do and have the time of her life Saturday afternoon.

TWO NEW MILERS MAKE GOOD TIMF
Stateler and Groene, Two-Milers Show Speed in Shorter Distance
Four men made good time in the mile in track practice yesterday afternoon. Stateler, who regularly runs the two-mile, made the mile in 4:45; while Groene, the other veteran two-miler, ran the same distance in 4:52; Sproll, the regular miler, finished a second before Groene. Rinker, who is doing well first time this year, was off form yesterday and made the distance in 4:57.
Rice, one of the regular high jumpers of last season, had an X-ray examination made of his arm yesterday and a splinter of a bone was found in the muscle. Rice fell on his elbow while pole vaulting three weeks ago and has not been able to work until this week. He intends to go on to play basketball. He will do any real work until the first of next week. His injury may handicap him in the meet with the Kansas Aggies, February 19.
Other members of the team also are in bad shape for the coming meet. Winn reported last night for the first time in about a week. He has been unable to any work on account of weak ankles, which he hurt in the normal meet.
The weight men have not been showing up well for the past week in spite of the fact that the Aggie meet is only a week and a half off. Casey was out for work in the shot again last night, but Small and Vernon have not been doing consistent work in the last week.
Rustenhack did some good dash work yesterday, although he has a badly skinned leg which he received when he fell on the wooden track Monday. Treweeke is badly handicapped by a sore leg which has prevented him from doing his best work in the high jump.
Pattinson has not gotten back into his old form again but has been vaulting around the 10.6 mark for the last few days. Stateler showed that, he still is a good two-miler when he stepped off that distance in 10:15 the first of the week. The relay team is still working' on the touching off.

Serubly Laslett played a fast, aggressive game and intercepted several passes, but he did not play up to his old standard. And this is probably due to the fact that he has one of the highest standards in the Valley.
The game last night was by far the most exciting game of the season, although the Jahawkwer quintet not playing as fast a game as in the tie clashes here January 23 and 24, except in the last five minutes of play.
Captain Fat Nelson also played a good game at right guard. He is developing more speed and is playing a fast, aggressive game.
Rudolf Uhrlaub was the greatest point-getter for Kansas, getting two field goals and four free ones. His last goal won the game for Game 5 after a fast, heady game, breaking up pass as well as hitting the basket.
Leon Gibbens was fast on the floor, but was not hitting with his usual ability. His greatest service came in breaking up the Tiger passes.
Walter Kauder, who went in when Gibbens was forced from the game because of personal fouls, was made a hero in a minute when he bagged one of the longest goals of the game which tied the score a minute before the end of the clash. He also is fast on the floor.
Ernst Uhrlau, who went in at center when Lytle was shifted to right guard, plunged into fast, fast, fast, and responsible to a great extent for holding the
? R. J ?
Tigers to one free goal in the last five minutes of play.
Captain Williams, Tiger center,
was easily the star of the Missouri
five. He was one of the fastest men
on the floor, and bagged two field
baskets and thirteen free goals out of
a possible seventeen.
Viner, left guard, and Vogt, right forward, also showed up well for the Tigers. Vogt caught the tip-off-almost every time, and was fast on the floor.

CARLSON TO TELL WHY WE HUNGER
"The physiologic way of increasing hunger and appetite is moderation in food consumption or increasing the need of food by outdoor living, fresh air, cold baths, and physical work," says Dr. Anton Julius Carlson, professor of physiology in the University of Chicago who will speak in Fraser tomorrow at 4:30.
Those students who are already aware of a lagging appetite and hope to stimulate it with spring tonics will get valuable health hints from Doctor Carlson's lecture. He does not believe there is a specific drug remedy for every ailment, and this popular superstition, he says, constitutes the chief aid of the medical quack and the patient medicine vender.
Noted Physiologist Will Lecture In Fraser Chapel Tomorrow at 4:30
Doctor Carlson belongs to the modern school of physicians which is trying to bring the practice of medicine out of the darkness that has obscured it and make health popular through public education.
Capt. and Mrs. C. S. Gibbens, of Nickerson, came in Tuesday evening to spend a few days with their son, Leon, at the Beta Theta Pi house, and also to see the K. U.-M. U. basketball games.
Claude Diehl, a member of the Kansas Wesleyan basketball team which plays Haskell Friday night, came to Lawrence a few days ahead of the team's start. He will be on hand for the Kansas-Missouri series Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Ralph Howland, e20, a brother of Herbert Howland, is starting the same faithful sort of work which his brother, Richard, has done on track work in the University.

COUNCIL FAVORS JOINT COMMITTEE
NUMBER 91.
Recommends That Students Have Voice in Disciplinary Decisions
CHANGE UP TO THE SENATE
Would Give to Student Council and Senate Equal Representation on Board
A resolution passen by the Men's Student Council last night provides for the suggestion to the University Senate that the disciplinary committee be made up of an equal representation from the Student Council and the Senate to the Senate presented to the Senate at the next meeting, which is in March.
The disciplinary committee at present is a branch of the Senate and the student body has no representation that affect it in the way of discipline.
GREEVER EXPLAINS NEED
Paul Grever, president of the Men's Student Council, said this morning. After the anaconda last fall it has occurred that he really satisfactory way of setting matters of student discipline is by a joint committee of the students and the faculty. In this way both sides affected will have a voice in determining the discipline to be administered to offenders. Both the students and faculty will have equal opportunities to express themselves as executive bodies. The matter of apportioning the responsibility for clemency will be done away with and the trouble that comes with cases where a decision of some matter needs cooperation, will be alleviated.
RESULTS OF "NAUGHTY RALLY"
“This will do away with the complaints of acts of injustice done by a committee made up solely of faculty members and students acting as judges of their fellow-students cannot fail to do justice to both parties. It is better understanding between the faculty and students and while there has been no cause to find fault with the judgement of the members of the recent committee, I think this plan will be better for all concerned.”
SAY MISTER PROFESSOR,
HAVE A HEART
Come Down To Our Size
The action of the Student Council is the result of the "Naughty Rally" last fall by the disciplinary committee, in which the student body in order to have part in the settlement of the question or gain clemency for the offenders had to call a mass meeting with the student body. It is to do away with a recurrence of such trouble that the Council aims the resolution.
The same old failing of practically all of the professors was exhibited at the opening of the second semester. At the first meeting of class the course was explained and about two or three chapters were assigned for the next lesson. Because the first few lessons are so simple to the professors, who have spent their lifetime with them, these students can skim over this part of the text and collect all of it in their brain at a glance.
Please, Mr. Professor, have a heart
The modern language departments are noted for rushing the students the first two weeks of each semester, students say. These lessons are so difficult that you can do it no need is no use to spend any time on them. But the first lessons are the fundamental ones to the student, and if he gets these he does not have to worry and fret over the later ones so much. Probably the professors want to get over to a part where the students will have to say, "My, isn't he smart?"
Miss McDonald Returns
Susan McDonald, c17, who has just recovered from a mastoid operation at the University Hospital, returned to her rooming house, 1216 Tennessee night. Ms. McDonald will resume her work on the Hill immediately.
Percy Brush, c '19, who has been critically ill with tonsillitis the past week, underwent an operation for the removal of a mass of the university hospital Monday evening.

UNIVERSITY IS READY TO FIGHT
Faculty and Students Are Will ing to Do Their Share
University Is at Head of Supply Source of the Country
K. U. TO BE BIG FACTOR
"If war is declared, the University, faculty and students, stands ready to its share promptly and willingly," said Chancellor Strong this morning, in answer to a question, Is K. U. prepared for war?
"Some of the biggest minds in the country are represented in the faculty of the University. The faculty like the students are ready to do all they can for the United States in case war is declared with Germany," continued the Chancellor. "I think the attempt to organize an intercollegiate arena on the mobilization trained human resources of the country is only an expression of eastern colleges to offer their services in case of war."
UNIVERSITY A FACTOR
The University is a large factor when it comes to a question of war with Germany, for Kansas will take a big part in the war if the United States is drawn into the conflict. The immense oil, lead and zinc fields of the state owe their development in a large measure to the activities of the departments of geology and mining in the University.
FACULTY IS PREPARED
Machine shops, factories and flouring mills are investigated and advised by the department of engineering. The department of chemistry has done its share in the development of Insects. In Kentucky University Kansas is at the head of one of the greatest supply sources in the country.
THE MARY JEROME issue of the Graduate Magazine will be published next week. It will contain the first of a series of interesting articles entitled, "Seeing K. U." There will be an article on the book of Charles F. Scott, and another on the book of Kate Stevens, A.B.75, will contribute an article on "Our Librarian."
Prof. W. A. Whitaker, head of the industrial department of chemical research in the University, is also head of the Associate Naval Consulting board of Kansas, Prof. George C. Shaad, of the electrical engineering department is another member of the board. Last summer this board gathered full data of Kansas resources and placed it on file with the United States Naval Consulting Board at Washington. Information in regard to the data is contained on a wall card in the files at Washington, although many pages were required for the information first hand. Each card is punched full of holes, according to a code, and can be translated by officers only.

Mr. Wildey spoke yesterday afternoon and last night. He arrived late and divided his talk into two parts. His talk last night was preceded by an organ recital by Miss Pearl Emey of the University. Professor MacMurray gave readings after the talk.

ASK STUDENTS TO CARE FOR COLDS
University Hospital Sends Out List of Instructions on Prevention
Many cases of sore throat are being treated at the University hospital. The trouble is not usually serious, but is infectious and has been acquired by quite a number of students, physicians say, and urge students either to seek medical treatment or to port at the University Hospital as soon as they feel symptoms of a cold. The disease usually develops from a cold.
In order to avoid a sore throat, the following instructions have been given out from the University hospital: He careful to keep your room centilated. A great many gas stoves are used for heating. These are apt to cause infection. In some room houses all the persons drink from one glass in spite of all warnings. This is almost certain to cause infection of the whole house as soon as their throat from some outside source.
Be careful not to use towels which others have used. If your roommate has a cold it is best not to sleep with him. See your doctor or report to the Hospital as soon as the first sign of infection appears.
DR. GRAY WORKS WITH STUDENTS

He has been chosen by the University of Kansas to conduct student campaigns each year at various universities. He has worked in this capacity in Columbia University and other large eastern schools. This is one way he visit to the University of Kansas.
His church is a great community center. Many of the greatest speakers who come to Kansas City talk from the pulpit of Grand Avenue Temple. It is Dr. Gray's belief that the church is to educate and inspire the public, and he takes this means to give them the best.

M.U. EVENS SERIES IN SECOND GAME
Mechanicals to Mix
Jayhawkers Could Not Stop Whirlwind Attack and Lost 26-17
WILLIAMS WAS THE STAR
Tiger Captain Tossed Fourteen Straight Free Throws— A Record
TIGERS HOLD LEAD
The Tiger goal-tossers staged a comeback after their 1-point defeat Tuesday night, and won from the Jay-vesi team, last night, by a score of 26 to 17.
Missouri started with a whirl-wind attack and went into the lead on a free goal and a field basket by Williams, the Tiger center, after two minutes' play. Rudolf Uhrlaub, the Jayhawker left forward, opened the scoring for Kansas a minute later by possession. The Cardinals succession, Williams caged another free one and Uhrlaub followed with one point.
Williams threw three more free ones, and Scrubby Laslett brought the Jayhawker fans to their feet by cagings. The fans lambed the llamas counted another free one, followed by a field basket by Vogt, Tiger right forward. With two minutes to play Gibbens caged a basket from the sidelines. A minute later, the team hooked a basket and the half closed the score 12 to 7 in favor of Missouri.
KANSAS SHIFTS LINEUP
Both teams were cheered as they came back on the floor. Williams opened the scoring for the Tigers with one of his dead-sure free goals. R. Uhlraub connected two more free goals. The Tigers added three points, R. Uhlraub connected for two more free goals and a field basket which brought the Jayhawker score within three points of the Tigers. The Kansas lineup was shifted and play was resumed with Ernst Uhlraub at center, R. Uhlraub at right, Kansas fought desperately and two minutes before the end of the game Kauder was sent in for Laslett and Humpty Wilson replaced Lytle but the Tigers' attack could not be stayed.
WILLIAMS AND UHRLAUB STAR
Captain Williams was the star of the game. He scored eleven of Missouri's twenty-six points. His greatest feat was throwing fourteen free throw as many chances. Campbell and Vogt also played well for their team.
The Jayhawkers still have a good chance at the Missouri Valley Championship, according to the coaches. The next Jayhawk games will be held in February when the Washington University five comes for a 2-game series.
Rudolf Uhrlaur starred for Kansas, making eleven of the seventeen points, besides breaking up Tiger passes time and again, in Scrubby Laslett played his usual hard, dashing game. The Jayhawkers put up a set of fight but were on the defensive when it came to the time. Their team-work was not what they needed and they had trouble connecting with the basket. At one time four Jayhawkers took shots from under the basket and missed.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1917.
HALLS OF RESIDENCE
It is the business of articulation to
kill, kill and thought in the world—
Matthews, who wrote it.
Every year sees some new trouble concerning housing conditions, especially for women, in the University. There are always wrangles over house rules, terms of contracts, and general sanitary conditions.
bill recently introduced into the legislature offers a very effective remedy for these troubles. The proposed measure would allow each of the large state schools to issue bonds to the extent of $100,000 to build halls of residence for women, to be run by the institution at only enough profit to retire the bonds and provide a sinking fund.
The student district is entirely too small to meet the demand of an increasing enrollment. There are very few more rooming houses today than there was ten years ago when the enrolment was but one-half as large as it is today. Students are living many blocks away from the hill, and every year the number who must ride the street cars to and from classes increases.
The passage of a bill to provide dormitories for the women of the University would not cost the state one penny. In passing the bill the legislature merely puts its stamp of approval on a thing that has long been recognized as a necessity by the alumni and students of the University.
It is not necessary to expand on the benefits of halls of residence for women. The elements of democracy, better school work, and cheaper and better rooms under direct University supervision and their benefits are only evident.
In studying labor saving devices one can't get away from the fact that the easiest way is just to let the labor slide. Take for example, the windows of the Lawrence Street Cars.
The question now is will the legislature shy at the expenditure of $100,000 extra for each of the big state schools even if the schools themselves secure the money and pay it back without any added expense to the state.
MERCHANTS' WEEK
Each year merchants' week is becoming more popular, both with the merchants and with the University of Kansas, until now it is regarded as one of the few big weeks of the school year. It has come to be a sort of family reunion inasmuch as it brings together several hundred scattered Jayhawkers and unites them with the highly organized group that composes the Thundering Thousand.
But it is not the fact that several hundred fellow Kansans are guests at K. U. that makes the occasion one of
major proportions; it is the conditions under which the get-together takes place. There is no social pump and ceremony, no dash and vim of the football gathering. We simply get together as Kansens as fellow students.
With a common basis upon which to work the union between visitor and host is easily completed and as a result the merchants each year leave here with a firm resolve to return next year, not as visiting merchants but as Jayhawkers. They have profited from their visit and association with the University and the institution in turn has learned a good many new things from them. In other words the benefit has been mutual.
That is why Merchants' Week has come to mean so much to both the University and business men of the state.
Now that the fine weather is here isn't it about time to begin taking visitors to the top of Fraser?
THE TIME-KILLER
"My time is valuable. Get on out of here and leave me alone, I gotta study."
How many times has this cry gone up from a Mr. Wood B. Worker who has idied away many an hour wondering why the other fellows get all the grades—and "grapes" in their college life. This gentleman is the man who puts in eighteen hours of every twenty-four the last few days before the finals working like a dog—and immediately when the next semester opens and he has pulled through by the skin of his teeth, other fields of endeavor loom up more enticing than mere studies or school activities.
And the sad part of it all is Mr. W.
B. W. figures the only way to get in
condition for the next spurt is to loaf
continually until the eleventh hour is
at hand.
This is an age when the big men are keeping ahead of their work—not letting their work get ahead of them. They are capitalizing the spare moments that fall between intervals of necessary routine work by doing the best thing at that particular moment, whether it be to read a book, take a walk in the fresh air, clinch a friendship, win over an enemy, whistle a tune, talk politics, or write a letter home.
The real problem is the fellow who "just sits." The man who will deliberately spend the best hours of the day "just killing time" is not only holding back himself, but he is committing a crime against society by robbing it of interest on the principle that it has given him in the shape of opportunity.
Time will pass of itself. There is no necessity of aiding it in its flight. The problem is to take as many of the finer things of life from the little niches called moments in the endless belt of time.
The Kansas City Star's recent action in calling attention to the mistake made by the Kansan in referring to Mme. Bloomfield Zeisler's first name as Anna instead of Fannie recalls some of the spelling used by the Star in naming Kansas football players during the past season.
Art can be appreciated by Americans only when expressed in dollar marks. An unknows artist can achieve a masterpiece and remain in obscurity unless chance brings his painting before the public. And even then its reception will be gauged by the buyer and not the artist.
And speaking about spelling, a Kansas paper recently referred to Dr. Neigh Smith, of the University of Kansas, as the inventor of basketball. Should this not vindicate the Frosh?
MERCENARY ART
Let some millionaire's passing fancy light on a painting and the reputation of the artist is made. All his subsequent efforts will be eagerly applauded and bid for not for themselves but because big money fathered them.
The art exhibit in the Ad Building contains real works of art—paintings that can be appreciated by anyone. yet the artists name will not be asked as often as the price of the picture.

SENATE OPPOSES NEW CONSITUTION
Move to Call Convention Failed by Two Votes Yesterday Afternoon
INCOME BILL HAS CHANCE
Measure May Pass as Amendment to the Present Constitution
The question of calling a constitutional convention failed yesterday by two votes in the state senate. The vote was 25 to 15 in favor of submitting the proposition to a vote of the people but 27 votes are required for final passage. Supporters of the bill expect to have that number by the time the resolution comes up for final vote.
A heated debate featured the session of the senate in deciding the bill. Many members were accused of playing to the grandstand on account of the large audience in the gallery and spirited language used. Supporters of the bill lost four votes when H. M. McCormick, the senator, and Wilder S. Meclaf, of Lawrence, changed their votes on the bill and voted against the passage of the bill.
Senator Price criticized the newspapers for backing the constitutional convention and stated his views that the people should favor an amendment to submit more than three amendments to the vote of the people at one session of the legislature. This would materially help pass the Permanent Income Bill.
If the constitutional convention is held and the Permanent Income Bill becomes a part of the new constitution, it will be at least four years before the state educational institutions will receive any benefit from the law on account of the slow process of making the Bill a part of the law.
The quickest way to make the Bill effective would be to have it pass as one of the three amendments to the present constitution; but advocates of the Income Bill believe that the Bill has the best opportunity of becoming a law by being made a part of the new constitution.

WITH THE VISITORS
The merchants like this Short Course. They said so themselves. Seventeen merchants picked at random, were asked what they thought of the course. They answered in various ways but every merchant said he wouldn't miss another course. He said, and what he said.
C. C. Brooker, secretary, Marion County Chamber of Commerce: "I have never missed a short course. The state is performing a great service to the merchants. The merchants appreciate it. In fact, they appreciate it so much they are willing to pay my expenses."
S. W. Bull, Mariette; "I haven't been here long enough to form an opinion. This is my first short course."
J. H. Marshall, Bonner Springs;
"The short course is a fine thing for
the merchants. I am very much
interested. This is my third course."
H. Ackerman, Marysville; "It is all right, I haven't been here long enough to know much about it."
William Jacobs, Topeka; "The short course is instructive and a good thing for any merchant to attend."
C, E. Vickland, Topeka; "I guess the baw sums as my MR. Jacuzzi. I had been told that he was going to work."
Merrell Blank, Longton; "That man Flint is a peach. I guess I enlisted him as a Common Sense Principles in the Psychology of Advertising', the most."
B. A. W. Bender, Holton; "I enjoyed
A. B. W. Bender's course,
beneficial in my business."
Carl Ricker, Emporia; "It is a crime for a merchant not to avail himself of the opportunities offered by the course. The merchant who found the course is insuring himself a place at the foot of the procession."
Robt. T. Johnson, Lindsborg: "The lectures have been much better. Spargo's lecture on Socialism certainly put a different meaning in it."
Darwin W. Ahrens, Paola; "I have picked up lots of new ideas. The
round tables have been great. We certainly had a time at the clothing round table yesterday."
W. E. Fluke, Dighton; "M. Buhrman's speech appealed to me the most. This is my first course. I am planning to attend again next year."
Charles Haynes, Emporia; "I have learned lots from the course. It is a shame that the merchants do not attend. I must not attend. It just makes it harder for them."
O. L. Johnson, Neodesha: "The course is fine. I was here every day last year. It has been a great help to me."
Carl Woody, Salina; "This is my first course. It is practical and has given me some good ideas about the hardware business."
C. J. Hessel, Cheney; "I have attended every course. I have received considerable benefit for them."
Mrs. J. W. Brown, Caldwell; "Fine,
I like it. It is certainly practical."
Nineteen women are enrolled for the Short Course. And they aren't all from Lawrence, either. There are two or three living in Lawrence but the majority are from towns near Lawrence. Last year the weathers kept many women from attending the course.
Otto Boehrman goes next week to Pueblo, Colorado, where he will address the Colorado Short Course. E. Leslie Wilde will speak in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or the merchants of Minnesota. Short His talk will deal with the mail-order business and the way to beat it.
A business session of the Kansas Retail Jewelers' Association is being held this afternoon in Marvin Hall. This meeting has brought many jewels to Lawrence who have been attending the Short Course meetings.
PHI KAPPA PSIS WILL MOVE TO NEW HOUSE House Sprang Up Over Niel
A modern genui must have smiled on the Phi Kappa Pi fraternity. Last night Doc and Henry both dreamed that the house the fraternity had been planning to build for the last twenty-five years was finished and ready to be inhabited. This morning sprung up a new sign at Tewblath and Indiana a palatial home with "Phi Pai Sorority House" inscribed on it.
It is said the chapter will move into their new quarters shortly.
The Phi Pais have invited the thoughtful soul who were behind the fairy-like appearance of the new house on their property to the room-warming scheduled for any hour after supper that suits the convenience of the donors.

STUDENTS LINE UP FOR GRADES
Wait in Line Hours to Learn
Fate of Last Semester's
Just how much is it worth to yo-
know your grades? Are you willing
to brave the long line of anxious
students which stretches from the
door of Registrar Foster's office to
the main entrance to Fraser?
Work
"It it cost me just one dollar to relieve the suspense and assure myself that my grades were just what I expected, but instead I tended student as he emerged from the office door this morning and surveyed the long line of anxious studies. "I was in the line two different times, and I had a few cents an hour. But it was worth it."
A majority of the students have secured their grades, it was announced at the registrar's office this morning, but the line is still unchanged. Most students know the courses, but the registrar's file is the safest source of information.
The smile or scowl on the student's face is an indication of how a professor has treated him. A smile tells as plainly as words that the "prof" has stretched a point and marked a II when the student was really expecting a III. A serious "it-might-have been" expression is a sure indication that the instructor has "hewn to the floor" and changed an optimist into a passim.
"The rush is about the same every semester," said Registrar Foster this morning. Practically every student comes to assure himself exactly how he fared. Grades can be obtained the rest of the week."
Math Club to Meet
The next meeting of the Mathematics Club will be held Monday, February 12, at 4:30 p. m., in room 103, Administration Building. Professor Wheeler will talk on "Adding and Multiplying Machines."

LITTLE NEWS OF AGGIE STRENGTH
Farmers Are Developing New Track Team for K. U. Meet
5
No indication of the strength of the Aggie team which will meet K. U. at Lawrence, February 19, has leaked out of Aggieville. The showing made by the men in the sophomore-freshman class was weak in practically all events. Last year the Aggies were supposed to be strong, but the K. U. team won from them easily, 66 to 19. Teeter, Frizell, and Holyroyd, the best men on last year (team), are not young enough for Aggies now developing a new team.
Most track men took only light work-outs yesterday afternoon on account of the upper track being set for the basketball game last night. Only the wooden boards down stairs were used for the light dash work.
Potsy Clark will time and work the distance men in preparation for the meet with the Kansas Aggies. Coach Hamilton will coach the pole vaulters, high jumpers, and dash men, while Coach Olcott will have charge of the weight men. More weight men were out for work last night to attend other time games. Casey, Vernorsill, and Ziegler were the Varsity candidates working out yesterday. The men were tossing the shot around the 37-foot mark.
Rustenbach, Davidson, and Crowley did the best work in the sprints. Clark started the dash men. Pattinson is slowly rounding into his last season's form. Welsh has not been able to do any track work this week because of an injury to his back which he received while skating Monday.
SPORT BEAMS
Gibbens got a bloody nose at the start of the second half.
Coach Hamilton realized what the men needed, and he had them at work trying to hit the baskets between halves.
No track meet will be held in New York armories this year on account of the break with Germany, as a result of an order given out recently promptly holding of such The armories are now needed for war preparations.
The Jayhawkers are again occupying second place in the race for the Missouri Valley championship. The standing is:
G. W. L. P.
Missouri 6 4 2 .666 2-
Kansas 8 5 3 .625
Aggies 4 2 2 .500
Ames 5 2 3 .400
Nebraska 0 0 0 .000
Drake 1 0 1 .000
Washington 2 0 2 .000
The Jayhawkers will not have any more Missouri Valley games until next Monday and Tuesday when Washington U. comes here for two games. Kansas plays Nebraska Friday and Saturday of next week.
Coach Venne's fast Haskell Indian quintet is scheduled to play the Kansas Wesleyan goal-tossers at eight o'clock tonight in the Haskell gymnasium. Although the Haskell team has been beaten several times this season, they always play a fast, exciting game.
There was also more enthusiastic rooting than for years. The fans simply raised the roof whenever a snowball or Blue goat-oeshed would bag a basket.
Kauder, the midget forward who made himself a hero in a minute in the game Tuesday night, brought an outburst of enthusiasm when he entered the game last night. Although he didn't get to bag a long shot to tie the score, he played a fast aggressive game as guard.
Ernat Uhrlubb also showed a lot of fight and was constantly breaking up the Tiger passes. One of his chief characteristics is that he starts in the game on the run and fights until the whistle ends the game.
Missouri will play Nebraska at Lincoln, Friday and Saturday, while Washington U. plays the Aggies two games at Manhattan the same days.
After a little rest followed by some hard practices, the Jayhawk quintet should be back in its early season form. None of the men are hurt and only need a little rest to be back in their old fighting form.
The largest crowd of Jayhawker fans of the season saw the game last night. Seats were reserved by some on the large steel beams which support the roof of the gymnasium.

CAST OF TWENTY-FIVE
PRESENTS SIX PLAYS
Six plays will be presented by Stuart Walker's Portmanteau Theater company in Fraser Hall beginning February 19. These plays are presented by Hubert Maximilian Jr. and Russel Janney with an original company of twenty-five direct from the Princes Theater of New York. They are full of interest, comedy, and triumph and are well stared.
Tickets go on sale at the Round Corner Drug Store and the University business office Feb. 12, but the first round is not yet announced by mailing to the location now place.
May Meet in Women's Corner
The Women's Corner in Fraser Hall could be satisfactorily used for social meetings for students and faculty of the college, for visits to Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women. Such meetings do not imply faculty supervision as some students might suppose. They would be purely social in nature and of direct influence to students who, otherwise, might come into contact with men and women of note in the University.
Plain Tales from the Hill
"The Fine Arts Building" is the sign painted in letters a foot high on the tool box of laborers on the rock pile near the Administration building.
The caps to the old fire plugs over the campus were removed yesterday by means of an acetylene tank. New style caps will probably replace the antique ones which have been used for many years.
L. Banker, of Russel, who is enrolled in the Merchant's Short Course this week said his first visit to the Hill was made in 1878. "The walk from the old Eldridge House to the top of the hill seemed long then when there were almost no houses between the two." Mr. Banker has sent two of his children to be educated at K. U. since that time.
Herbert Rose, e '18, who contributes to the Kansan under the name "H. R.", has withdrawn from school to accept a position with the Western University at home in Rowe, New Mexico. He sails into return to school next fall.
Claire Dietrich, c'14, is visiting friends on the Hill and attending the Merchants' Short Course this week. He is employed in the Rexall Drug Store at Ottawa.
Dorothy Somers, a special in the College last semester will leave her home at Newton, Saturday for Evanston, Illinois where she will enter Northwestern University to take a special course in playground work.
Harry H. Cromwell, c'19 left school Saturday to accept a position with the State Health Department at Topeka. He went on to study at State Health Car which tours the state.
Hobart Kriegh, of 708 Ohio Street,
a junior in the School of Engineering
has withdrawn from school to work
at the university. He will return
to school in the fall.
Bryan Davis, A.B.16, and Edward Tanner, B.S.16, came up from Kansas City Saturday to spend Sunday with their parents in Lawrence. Mr. Davids accepted a position as cashier in the Commerce State Bank of Rose-du-dale which was founded two month-ago. Mr. Tanner is with Sheperd, Farrar & Wiser, architects, of Kansas City, Mo.
NAISMITH STARTS NEW STYLED GAME
Women's Gymnasium Classes Try Out Latest Form of Basketball
A new women's basketball game has been invented by Doctor James Naismith of the department of physical education for men and Miss Hazel Pratt, instructor in the department of physical education for women and also the coach for all women's basketball teams.
The new game was tried out yesterday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium between the women's freshmen and sophomore basketball teams. It promises to become a much more interesting game than the game now played by women, according to Miss Pratt.
The new games differs from the old game in that there is just one line across the court equidistant from both goals, and the running center and the jumping center will be allowed to play over the entire court, while the two forwards must stay on one side of the net, and the two guards on the other side.
GUARDS CAN THROW GOALS
The feature of the new game is that both forwards and the running center will be permitted to shoot goals the first half and the two guards and the second half. Heretofero the running and jumping centers have not been permitted to try for the goal.
The new style of play will make the game much faster and more interesting, according to Miss Pratt.
The motive which led to the invention of the new basketball game was the strong demand from coaches of women's basketball teams of the various high schools over the state to give a court division that would suit every one so that the various teams which meet annually in the state basketball games are forced on playing on the same style court as they are forced to play on here.
The Kansas Wesleyan basketball squad of Salina attended the Kansas-Missouri game last night. The Wesleyan team plays Washburn at Topeka tonight and Haskell at Lawrence tomorrow night.
When the game is worked out a little more and any possible defects remedied, pamphlets explaining the new game will be issued to the various high schools in the state. Miss Pratt believes that the game will become popular with all women athletes.

READY FOR A COMEBACK
Coach Hamilton Believes Hard Practice Will Bring Team Out of Slump
The next game on the Crimson and Blue schedule will be played Monday night at 7:15 when the Washington University goal-tossers invade Robinson gymnasium to battle with the Jayhawker quintet.
COACH CONFIDENT
Although the Washington five lost two games to Missouri, January 19 and 20, by the scores of 22 to 36 and 20 to 30, they will probably play a much better game when they clash against Alabama. But Coach W. O. Hamilton. The games will probably be much closer than the dope would indicate.
Coach Hamilton believes his men will show a good come-back in the remaining games on their schedule. At any rate, they are going to make a desperate effort, and fight to the last ditch.
"The Jayhawker fans will get a chance to see the team going again in their old form in the Washington football match Hamilton's prediction last night.
>HOW GREAT CHANGE
The first thirty minutes of the practice last night was given over to goal-shooting and team-work. All of the players showed an unusual ability to connect with the basket. Ernst Uhrlaub bagged five successive goals from mid-field. To hit the basket he made and not the exception last night.
After the goal-shooting practice the Varsity had a fast scrimmage with Coach Julius Uhrlaub's aggressive freshman goal-cagers. The freshmen also scored five goals, and the Varsity five steadily took the lead, due to the improved goal-shooting ability of the Varsity men. After another practice tomorrow night the freshmen have been in the thirteenth condition for the game Monday and Tuesday nights.
RECEIVES GRIM EXHIBIT
Souvenirs of Mine Disaster Sent to Professor Terrill
Reminders of the Stone City and No. 15 mine disasters, in the shape of rent powder cans, unexploded dynamite sticks, and shattered tool boxes, have been received by A. C professor of mining engineering.
The Stone City calamity, according to Professor Terrill, was one of the worst mine disasters n the history of the state. Twenty miners lost their lives, either by suffocation or by the force of the explosion.
Two of the powder canes, with their iron sides ripped open by the force of the explosion, were taken from Mine No. 15, near Stone City, in which one shot firer was killed. This miner was the fifty-fourth man to be killed in Kansas mines during the calendar year 1916.
Professor Terrill will make two exhibits out of the unique collection taken from the mines. Half of the collection will be placed on exhibition in Haworth Hall and the rest will be taken to Topeka.

Having decreed that his students, at least, should have latitude for individual development, a certain K. He wrote to me, "The above in his long list of subjects from which students may select for descriptive writing." This said instructor of poetic temperament does not want the students to package of pins" at the semester's close.
Just what constitutes a "College Cutie" was left to the discretion of the individual student; "Clinging Vines" have well-defined though often cleverly-hidden characteristics; and "Regular Devils" may range from journalism lab performers to naughty ralliers.

At the business session the jewelers adopted a resolution endorsing the publicity campaign to advertise jewelry over the entire country, and elected officers for the coming year. Officers elected are: E. L. Mebovall, Arkansas City, first vice-president; A. L. Marks, Lawrence, second vice-president; Miss M. L. Addis, Topeka, secretary.
HASKELL BRAVES WIN

The Indians took a big lead in the second half, and two minutes before the game, the score was tied with the owner of the Indians. The visitors threw four field baskets, making the final score 28-22 in favor of Haskell.
Coach Venne's Haskell goal-cagers won a fast, exciting game from the Kansas Westcavian University and a new New Haskell gymnasium, 28 to 22.

Fourth Missouri Infantry, returned this week to enroll in the College for his sophomore year. (One man had him on the border, Mr. Broyles being able to return because he had finished his three years' service in the Missouri national guard.
Violets were in bloom in southern Texas when he left, Mr. Broyles said.
Naisimh Dr. James Naisimh, of the department of special education returned from Wichita this morning where he spoke to the students of the high school on how a parent views a high school education. Dr. Naisimh is well qualified to speak on that subject for he has a child in the grade school, a boy in the high school, and a girl in the University.

Proper Selection of Courses Means Success, Doctor Waddell Tells Engineers
CHOICE A FACTOR HOUSE AWAITS IN ENGINEERING SENATE'S ACTION
FAVORS STUDY OF SPANISH
Says Latin and Greek Are In Same Class as Chinese and And Sanskrit
Judicious selection of courses is as big a factor in the engineering profession as in any other, was the message brought to K. U. engineers today by J. A. L. Waddell, consulting engineer of Kansas City and New
LANDS ON LATIN
Students who show the ability should be admitted to the higher science courses, and the rest should be trained to use their hands, in drafting, surveying, and machine work," noted Doctor Waddell.
A command of French he calls 'a gentlemanly accomplishment, of little real use.' He advocates the remo *of all Latin and Greek* courses fr schools. "Latin and Greek are in t; same class as Chinese and Sanskrit; of about as much use to the American," he said. "Cut them out."
Doctor Waddell favors the introduction of Spanish as a required subject in schools, especially in engineering courses. "Before long," he said, "the trade of Latin-America will be dominated by the United States. Engineers work with this more complex need than we need in the majority of Spanish." He said German was useful in pure science, but was not a necessity to the engineer.
AMERICANS TOO EAGER
"More English is needed in engineering courses. Mathematical studies are, of course, necessary, but are not the only ones that should be emphasized. English is the most important tool of the engineer, and he must be well fitted to use it if he would succeed.
"The young American wants to get through school too quickly," said Doctor Waddell. "He is too eager to get out and make money with the greatusz students now available, four years is not long enough to spend on an engineering course."
RELIGION CLASSES MEE
Many Students Enroll in New Courses
Partly cloudy tonight and Saturday; warmer tonight and in east and central portion Saturday.
The Weather
Classes in the School of Religion met last night at Myers Hall and Westminster for the beginning of the second semester's work. Five courses are offered this term as follows: Comparative Religions, Stunton Olinger; Life of Christ, Arthur Braden; The Doctrine of Christ; Thompson; Religious Pedagogy, Dean Kelly; Social Teachings of Jesus, Professor Elmer.
At the regular meeting of the Kansas Board last night Mary Smith and D. L. Hartley were elected to fill the vacancies made by the resignation of Carter and Edwin drawal of Jack Carter and Edwin Hullinger from the University.
The School of Religion, as it is now organized, began its work last September. It has outlined a four-year course of study, which carries sixteen credit hours of work, and its purpose is to give instruction in the Bible and allied subjects to students of the University.
KANSAN BOARD ELECTS
MEMBERS AND EDITORS
Last semester about 150 students took the work and it is expected that many more will take the courses offered this semester. Certificates are given for any part of the work completed, and when any student has completed at least twelve credit hours he is given a diploma.
A new set of ten volumes constituting the Mrs. Hopsa Ely Silliman Memorial lectures are now in the library. These lectures are published by the Yale College press on the Silliman foundation. Each volume is made up of an annual course of lectures given at the university and a natural science and history and give special prominence to astronomy, chemistry, geology, and anatomy.

Constitutional Convention Bill to Second Vote in Senate Today
CAPPER FOR AMENDMENT
Farmers' Union Has Been Block ing Bill in Upper House
House
The question of submitting the constitutional convention to the vote of the people will not come up in the house until the senate decides upon the bill. No definite action was taken on the bill in the session of the senate yesterday but it will probably be decided today.
The Farmers' Union has been opposing the proposition in the senate up to the present date, W. C. Lansdon, democratic candidate, who also opposed the amendment bill. According to the present constitution, the legislature must submit the question of a constitutional convention to the popular vote. When the governor called for a convention, it is then submitted to the vote of approval of the people.
Governor Capper and many other progressive men who want better government in the state are backing the movement for the constitutional convention. The question of submitting the calling of the convention to the vote of the people lacked only two votes of being passed Wednesday in the house, which he said it is quite probable that the Permanent Income Bill would be made a part of the new constitution if a new one is made.
The Permanent Income Bill means improvements in buildings, teaching staff, and equipment at the University, and at all state educational institutions. Because of this it is of vital importance that the Income Bill be implemented in Kansas Many of the more progressive states in the Union have some sort of a similar plan for the future development of the state schools.
WRITES ON COCBLEBURS
Prof. C. A. Shull Has Article in
Journal of Botany
An interesting account of a rare variety of the cockleur found near Onaga, some years ago, appeared in the January number of the American Journal of Botany. Proof Charles A Shull, of the department of botany wrote the article.
The bur is an interesting specimen for science because this particular species of bur has become extinct. It was a farmer's bur in 1909 and 1911 and was a great nuisance to the farmers of the state. It contained many seeds instead of two seeds.
Professor Shull thinks the bur may represent an ancestral condition, or parent form from which our present day burs have come, by the reduction in the number of seeds in each vine. It is also strengthened by the work of former Farr, of Columbia University, on the cocklebur flower.
The rare form of cocklebur was sent to Professor Shull by Mr. Crevecour, of Onaga, about two years ago, and a report upon it was made before its annual meeting of America at its annual meeting in Columbus, Ohio, in December, 1915.
PROF. BERNARD TO SPEAK BEFORE POLYL CLU
L. L. Bernard, of the department of sociology at the University of Missouri, will speak before the Internationa- day night at the Pi Kappa Alpha house. "Can We End the War?" will be the subject of his talk before the club, and it will be of special interest as we present difficulties with Germany.
Grades Now Out
Mr. Bernard has spoken before pollinate clubs over the whole country, and is much in demand at American colleges. He spent a night at the University of Nebraska.
Students desiring their grades for the first semester can find their standing by inquiring at the registrar's office. The grades from the different schools are now recorded in that office.
C. C. Green of Kansas Wesleyan University, Salina, is the guest of Ilene Fearing, c'19, at the city Y. M. Kansas came to me in the college game, Kansas-Missouri all games, and will remain over for the Wesleyan game with Haskell Friday night.
Dr. Childs accompanied by Miriam Jones, c17, left this morning for Atchison to make a physical examination of the high school girls.
FOR PROGRAM ARRANGED
FOR LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY
"The only observance of Lincoln's birthday by K. U. will be a dismissal of all classes," said Chancellor Strong this morning. "No program has been arranged nor any speakers obtained for the occasion."
Lincoln's birthday, Feb. 12, has been observed by the University of Kansas since it was made a holiday five years ago. The mode of observance has been simply a dismissal of classes. Last day the date fell on Saturday.
A good many students living within a convenient distance of Lawrence will take advantage of the vacation to visit at home. Others will go on hikes or skating parties depending upon ensuing weather conditions. But it is safe to say that the holiday will be fully enjoyed by everyone.
LOCAL MERCHANTS BANQUET VISITORS
A. M. Keeney Was Principal Speaker at Chamber of Commerce Entertainment
Mr. Davis is a vigorous speaker, so vigorous, in fact, that he has been called the "Billy Sunday of business," and talks twice a week to the clerks of his department store on the elements which make successful business men and women. The other two days of the week he talks to clerks in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Three hundred visiting merchants were guests of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce last night at a banquet in the Fraternal Aid Hall. H. B. Ober, president of the Chamber of Commerce was toastmaster, Music was furnished under the direction of Dean Harold L. Butler of the University. Mrs. Florence Butter gave selected readings.
His talk last night was on "Essential Elements of Successful Retailing." He has a free direct style of delivery which holds his audience, and he is able to talk commanded still further attention frm his audience. His talk was really a summing up of all the big things of the week. The way of doing a thing wrong and the way of doing a thing right has many aspects of this latter style were all told.
Addresses were made by A. M. Keene, of Fort Scott, speaker of the Legislators Walter E. Wilson, of Washington, A. C. Coolidge, of Smith Center, Chas. E. Snyder, of Leavenworth and Samuel A. Davis, efficiency expert of the May Company, Cleveland, Ohio.
And that seemed to be the spirit of the banquet last night. The feeling of unity which has permeated the meetings for the entire week was at its best at the banquet. That spirit of being more efficient is the point which has been emphasized this week. And the merchants like it and are taking more kindly to the move each year.
Twenty-Seven Women Attended Short Course
Twenty-seven women were registered in the Merchants' Short Course out of a total enrollment of three hundred and fifty-six merchants. While all lines of business are represented, the ladies seem to lean toward the general merchandise business with jewelry, dry goods and millinery tied for second place, just two rows behind merchants, three jewellers, three dry goods and millinery, two druggists, and the rest are miscellaneous.
Those who enrolled were: Harriet Forbes, Ottawa; Miss M. L. Addis, Topeka; Miss Mabel Failen, Dighton; Mrs. E. D. McDowell, Arkansas City; Mrs. E. D. McDowell, Arkansas City; Bonner Springs, Mrs. Robert S. Reed, Barnes; Mrs. C. J. Hessel, Cheney; Mrs. John W. Brown, Caldwell; Marion Embree, ELendora; Mrs. Iona Ducy, Kansas City; Mrs. Florence Butler, Lawrence; Myrtle V. Hall, Ducy, Kansas City; Mrs. Florence; Mrs. J.

March, White Cloud.
Summer Schedules Out
The schedules for the Summer Session are out, and may be obtained at Dean Kelly's office. The catalogues will not be out until some time in March. The work in either term of the Summer Session will be complete in itself and may be taken without the other term. Special arrangements are being made for several series of lectures during the two terms.
MERCHANTS CLOSE SUCCESSFUL WEEK
Business Men Leave Tonight to Put New Ideas Into Practice
ENROLLMENT UP TO 355
Voice Approval of Short Course at Banquet in F. A. U. Hall Last Night
The fourth Merchants' Short Course is over. It has been successful in every way. The attendance has not been as large as in previous years but the enthusiasm has been greater. More Kansas towns and cities have been represented. More Kansas merchants have been in attendance and they have stayed longer. Late enrollment today brought the total number of twenty were women. The attendance last year was over four hundred but short courses being held in Texas and Colorado have cut the attendance at Kansas. But the smaller attendance has aided to greater unity in work.
RESTORATION TALKS
Today's prose talks a continuance of the work of the week. Otto Buhrmann talks at nine-thirty on "The Customer First" and at one-thirty on "Studying the Merchandise to be Sold." Oliver Wroughton spoke at ten-thirty on "Business Building," and again at two-thirty on "The Mission of Merchandising." Three University groups, the Imagism, L. N. Flint instructed the merchants in "The Building of an Ad;" Hazel K. Allen, of the home economics department talked on "Practical Tests for Textile Fabrics"; H. D. Harper continued his work in accounting with the subject, Preparation of Fabric Statements." The round tables were as usual at three-thirty. Stoughton Holborn spoke at four-thirty on "The Need of Art in Life."
BAPHOSPHERE COURSE
At the back door, light blue cards were passed out asking the opinion of the merchants of the Short Course. Every card showed appreciation. That the course is practical and instructive and should be supported by a larger attendance and also by the larger question was the almost unanimous opinion.
But the merchants want to see it bigger and better. The course has only two weeks left.
ADMIRE SHAKESPERE?
If So, Look Up New Books In Spooner Library
Students interested in the study of Shakespeare will find a wealth of new material on the shelf of new books in Spooner Library.
Are you curious about Shakespere's "The Dark Lady?" If so, R. L. Eagle, in his "New Light on the Enigmas of Shakespeare's Sonnets," discusses "The Dark Lady" "The Desert Shakespeare" and other poems. Raymond MacDonald Alden edits "The Sonnets of Shakespere," with valuable notes.
Are you acquainted with Shakepee, the man? If not, you will find valuable information in "Shakespeare," and I am certain that Cargill, writes: "My aim is to discern as far as possible something of the real self of Shakespeare." Sidney Lee also treats of the poet's life and his "Life of William Shakespeare."
What does Shakespeare look like?
Could you recognize him as pictured in an unusual pose? Thomas Kay has a little book, "The Grafton Portrait of Shakespeare," which contains a number of rare portraits.
Among other Shakespeare books are found: G. Greenwood's "Is There a Shakepears Problem?" Odell Shepard's "Shakespeare and the Shakepearian Studies," edited by Brander Matthews and A. H. Thorndike of Columbia University.
Discussed Food Standards
E. H. S. Bailey, professor of chemistry, and head of the state food laboratory, was in Topeka yesterday in conference with Dr. J. S. Abbott of Washington, D. C., of the United States Department of Agriculture, and L. M. Tolman, head of the federal food inspection bureau of Chicago. The purpose of the conference was to consider food standards, methods of enforcing laws, and the co-operation of state and federal boards.
Dramatic Bite Bugs Rock Chalks There will be a meeting of the Rock Chalk Jay Hawk Society at 7:45 Monday evening in Green Hall Theatre. This is an organization of freshmen of the University. Plans are being made by the members to present a number of one-act plays under the supervision of Prof, Arthur MacMurray.

COME AGAIN
The present week has been a mighty pleasant one for the University, Mr. Merchant, and we hope you too have enjoyed the time spent, on the classical slopes of Mt. Oread, in the guise of a student. Next year you will return, not as a merchant but as a moral Jayhawker. You will come back to renew associations formed the previous year; associations which will have a much broader appeal after twelve months of aging. You are here last year know how you began to itch under the collar as the time for the course drew near this year. You could scarcely wait to board the train. Now after a week's stay you find yourself well repaid, for you have had a week of recreation and yet find your possessed of a lot of new business tips which will prove of inestimable worth in your particular line of endeavor. Several days of life as a student has put new pep in your veins and you are going home well pleased. Now at home there are merchants who need this course, and why not pass the good thing along? Give them a few of the new ideas and fill them with the good old Kansas spirit that you have had pumped into you. Maybe they will get the fever and when the notices go out next spring these merchants, who were somewhat doubtful this year, will board the train with you. And now, once again Mr. Merchant, we're glad you came.
The artisan hurries through his work to get to his dinner; the artist hurries through his dinner to get to his work.
Y. M. C. A. PLEDGES
A few weeks ago the University Y. M. C. A. started out to raise the $3,900 needed to carry on their work this year. They asked $2,000 of this amount from the students, and followed a fair means of getting the money—that of letting the student pledge the amount he would give and making the payment later when he could best do it.
These pledges are falling due every day now and the Y. M. is sending out reminders. It should be useless to do more than remind you of your promise.
Did those beings who usually sally forth with a poem on spring, see their shadow too?
GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP
The referee of the Kansas-Missouri series found it necessary to call a foul on the crowd in both games in Robinson gymnasium. Luckily, Captain Willisima of Missouri missed the goal on Tuesday night or the hard-earned victory would have been turn
ed into defeat by the lack of sportsmanship on the part of a few rooters. Wednesday night the Tiger captain made the goal, allowing the Jayhawkers to be defeated by nine points instead of eight.
Hooting a decision is recognized as a mark of conduct unbecoming to good sportsmanship. It will not change a decision and only causes more harm than good. The officials try to give both sides a square deal and they call fouls as they see them.
A foul on the crowd counts as a technical foul on the captain of the home team. The men work hard enough for points without being hand-dicapped by a few over-enthusiastic rooters who attempt to give vent to their enthusiasm in the wrong manner.
Quite apropos to Dr. Carlson's lecture on the Biological Significance of Hunger would have been a lecture on the economical significance of hunger.
VENTILATION IN FRASER
Can we ever hope for any remedy for the ventilation system in Fraser chapel?
The seriousness of the question must certainly be admitted by anyone who has attended a lecture or convocation when any number of persons were gathered in the building. The windows are usually down and the doors closed. It does not take an expert to appreciate the condition of the body of air in that room after it has been consumed a few times by 800 persons.
A number of students have been heard to say that they could not stand the foul air in the chapel and stayed away from lectures and convocations on that account. Faculty members have made the same complaint but nothing has been attempted to remedy the condition.
A word to the Wise: Don't be sure it's a snap course until after the final examination.
KEEP ON THE WALK
"Keep on the walk" might be a good sign to put at various points over the campus, where we are inclined to save a few steps by short-cuts. It is a natural tendency when late to class or lunch, or when trying to pass a crowd, to cross diagonally across the campus.
This will not affect the appearance of the grass if done but once, but when persisted in and kept up by several hundred students, the resultant paths are anything but pleasing to the eye.
Keep on the walk. It is only a few steps farther, and the result more than repays the trouble.
John Spargo said that the modern railroad differed from the wheelbarrow only in degree of development. Will some man please explain the degree of difference between the wheelbarrow and a Lawrence street car?
"I went over to the house last night," said the old grad, "but there was nobody home. The downstairs was deserted and the mastect dog was dead. But I knew what was the matter and passed through the empty rooms and upstairs. I had 'been there' myself and I knew just what this desertion of the ukelele meant. They were all up in the different rooms, their voices cramming the study of a semester's lectures into three hours' time.
"I went in for a little while, but some way I seemed out of it. Old grades have their worries, but there is nothing as intense as the suspense of 'what do you suppose he will ask?' So I decided to take a walk, because there didn't seem room for me any more among the political science and economics books, half-finished papers and a miscellany of English classics.
NOBODY HOMF
"I thought as I walked along about how I used to study for exams, sometimes in the most systematic way possible, and at other times just at random or at the last minute. It all comes in a college course. But in spite of an out-of place feeling, I was glad it was all over. There was some recompense in being through school, for at least I could stroll along while the rest of them worked."—Ohio State Lantern.

AN EXPLANATION To the Daily Kansan;
for the benefit of "Loyalty" and others who have not taken time to get the facts of the case. I would state that both the High School Basketball Tournament and the Missouri-Kansas Track Meet dates are determined by conditions almost entirely outside the control of the athletic management. The high school basketball date is determined by the committee that assigns dates for the annual meeting of the High School Superintendents and the University officials, and held only on dates satisfactory to the management of Convention Hall, the University of Missouri, and the University of Kansas.
I am sure that no one connected with the institution is more put out over the fact that the two dakes共处 man is the management of athletics. W. O. H.
OPINIONS
There are two kinds of people you know, those who have the only possible opinions and those who have just ordinary every-day opinions. The others are more jovial, but unfortunately we sometimes have no need of Diogens' lantern to them. When we hear of the S. P. U. G.'s and the S. P. H. C.'s and of the warmth with which they are received, we wonder how soon they opinionated portion of the world is attention from these welfare workers.
Be our faults and fancies what they may, protect us from the sovereignty of our own opinions—Daily Iowan.
In a place like this where there is such a conglomeration of theories and principles, it is so easy to be or not to be. Every class, every kind, almost every person has his individual role in the job, not just by whom you would not eulogize any one of these—forbid that we should ever have to live in accordance with some of them, but we can at least quietly concede others the privilege of doing so. It is fortunate, we think, to acquire a bit of reverence or respect for the things you need, but you should avoid being classed with the people who have the reputation of rushing in where angels fear to tread.
"What kind?" asked the clerk. Her memory had failed her and she had no idea what kind it might be. The clerk named acid after acid, seemingly columns of them, but to no avail. She studied and tried her best to remember, then after about five minutes, triumphantly announced:

BY THE WAY—
It's possible—of course, because all things are possible. All the escorts with K. U. co-eds at the movies this week may have been visiting merchants only 300 merchants enrolled in the Short Course, and fifty of them are women. Moreover, a goodly number of the merchants have been attending events, or going to the evenings. Of course, it's possible—but do you really think it's true?
Woman's Question Again
The eternal question of woman's clothes looms on the horizon again—this time in regard to what to wear to the Girls' Prom tomorrow afternoon. Naturally, such an unusual affair has agitated some concern as to the proper thing. Dame Fashion decrees, in this case, that the woman who leads should wear a dark street coat and a hat, and should be attired just as elaborate as her fancy dictates; her prettiest party frock will not be out of place.

ASS'T DEAN GETS PRIVATE OFFICE
Room is for Prof. D. L. Patter son Who Has Charge of Students' Grades
"Dirt and noise will be our next door neighbors for a few days," said Dean Templin this morning, as a large piece of plastering fell to the floor in the basement after getting up a new place where students may go to adjust their standings."
The occasion of the confusion is the cutting of a doorway between the office of Mrs. C. E. Esterly, secretary to the dean, and the small room adjoining it on the south. When finished the small room is to be the office of the attacher, of the department of history, who was recently appointed assistant historian.
"In contrast to the confusion in our office though," the dean said, "we find the second semester of school is startling." He says with less confusion than ever before.
Mrs. Esterly's desk has been moved to the east room while the repairs are being made. Students wishing to see her should enter the last door of office.

NEW TRACK MEN TRY FOR PLACES
Ziegler Out for Shot and Pole- Vault—Shreve Runs Quarter
New track men were out yesterday afternoon working in practically all of the events. Ziegler not only tied his hand at the shot but did some good pault vaulting. Shreve was the new man working out and he had good jumping for his second arm out since he injured his arm several weeks ago.
Grutzmacher, the veteran brond jumper, did some work in the broad jump yesterday. Treweksie tied the high jump for the first time this week being unable to work because on account of an injury his right knee also did some work in the low hurdles yesterday. Rustenbach showed good form in the low hurdles. Seward, the man who showed up best in the high hurdles in the Normal meet, has not been out for more than a week now, and it is parent that a new high hurdle will be developed to run with Winn in this event.
Groene and Stateler did some pretty running in the two mile in the last practice. Stateler crossed the line in the first half, then came back. Howard ran an easy半 along with Murphy, who did the quarter in a little under a minute. O'Leary and Sproull made the best time in the second half. Murphy, white Rinker ran them a close race.
Potys Clark timed the men by laps on the upper track while Coach Hamilton worked with the pole vaulters, high jumpers, and dash men. Coach Olcott reported the same Varsity men out for the weights as before and a large squad of freshman candidates. Ziegler, Casey, Small, and Vernon were all putting the shot about 36 feet.
It is not expected that the Kansas Aggies will be as strong as they were last year when they expected to win from K. U. by a close margin but Kansas upset all dope in beating them by a forty-seven point margin. Many of the Aggies were lost last season and were lost by graduation and no indication has been given to the outside world as to what sort of a new team is being developed at Aggieville. It is certain, however, that the meet will not be a walkaway.
SPORT BEAMS
Every man on the Jayhawk squirrel realizes that Kansas will have to fight and fight hard to get back in running order for the Valley championship. Last night Captain Fat Nelson, a senior track star, missed their suppers to be on time for practice. This characterizes the spirit of every man on the spud.
The Missouri Valley Conference games for the week-end are: Missouri vs. Arkansas, two games, Wisconsin vs. Warnertown, two games, Aggies, two games at Manhattan.
Kansas plays Washington U. Monday and Tuesday and Nebraska Friday and Saturday. Drake will play Ames at Ames Tuesday, and Nebraska will play the Aggies at Manhattan Wednesday and Thursday.
It is predicted by followers of sport that Nebraska is likely to run into some hard luck next week. She will play on four successive days, the first two with the Aggies and the second two with the Jayhawkers.
Kansas will play her last basketball game of the season two weeks from tomorrow when she plays Washington U. at St. Louis.
Baseball will soon hold the center of the stage, with the spring football practices coming in for their share of attention. The baseball team will be in their spring football practice Monday, according to Eli Stover, the star fullback.
Every day several spectators can be seen watching the various new sports added to the gymnasium schedule. The boxing, wrestling, and fencing classes have already been closed because of large numbers enrolled.
The men are now being organized for the interclass swimming meet which will be held soon according to Prof. Charles B. Harrison, of the department of physical education. A time for the meeting of the members of the class in advanced swimming is now being arranged.

Tradition and precedent will be broken by the Dramatic Club this year in the advertising of their 1917 play, "Under Cover," to be given the latter part of this month. Heretofore Dramatic Club productions have been very lightly advertised, if at all. This year, however, Manager Frank McFarland has planned an array of series of plays that will appear easy to day in the advertising columns of the Daily Kansan. By this novel method, he hopes to acquaint the student body with the special features offered by this year's play.

The so-called "lectures" will take up, one by one, the various special phases of the coming production. First will come the plot, followed by a review of the cast, and so on, until each feature is explained.

A first-class soloist will be brought here for the important part. All students who can sing at all are urged to join chorus at once. Oratories are held on occasions or trials.

WOMEN TRY OUT FOR BIG SPLASH
Interclass Meet Will Include
Eight Diving and Swimming
Events
The next big event in women's athletics is the interclass swimming meet, which will be held sometime next month according to Conch Hazel Pratt. The exact date will be announced later.
"All women who wish to enter the swimming meet should begin work now," said Miss Pratt. "The pool is at 12:30, 12:30, and 4:30."
The meet will include eight events: the side stroke, 50 feet; backstroke, 50 feet; breaststroke, 50 feet; 100-foot diving; dash, compulsory, compulsory; and relay. The winner in the meet will be given a large plaque.
The women are already beginning to look forward to the meet according to Miss Pratt. Yesterday afternoon the women's advanced swimming class met at 2:30 and practiced diving. One of the sophomore women broke her last year record of 15.3 seconds for the fifty-foot side-stroke dash and made it into the finals. Two new women were out to the 3:30 class and everyone joined in a game of "follow your leader." Women who had never dived before, took a plunge rather than fall out of the line, according to Miss Pratt.
All of the women who competed in the swimming meet last year are in school with the exception of Bertha Ketchell, a graduate who won the fifty foot breast stroke event, and Opal Holmes, a soccer player who won the fifty foot stroke event. Miriam Jones was the greatest point-getter for the juniors in the meet last year. Ruth Endacott was a close second for the sophomores.
The final results of the meet by classes was: sophomores, 26; juniors, 20; freshmen, 12; seniors, 5; graduates, 5.

FLOWER SHORTAGE WILL
CAUSE RAISE IN PRICE
WIEDEMANN'S
The price paid for flowers this spring is expected to far exceed the amount paid at that season last year, according to local florists. The increase is due to the extreme cold and the poor gas supply effecting the heating floor. The shortage has been noted since Christmas when the reserve supply of flowers were rushed to meet the holiday demand. The recent cold spell caused a great shortage in the fuel supply and the trouble with heating increased. The high prices have led to the hotel layer laying in a coal supply and the low gas pressure makes proper heating impossible.

The University of Oklahoma has withdrawn from the Southernwest Athletic Conference. The large number of small schools in the present conference is given as the reason for the withdrawal of this school.

COMPANY "M" MAY BE REORGANIZED
Will Either Disorganize or Transfer to Engineering Company
FACULTY IS INTERESTEL
NUMBER 93
Captain Jones and Dean Walker to Meet With General Martin
Company "M" may become an engineering company, according to the statement of Capt. F. E. Jones this morning. From now until the spring inspection the company will hold its annual inspection. From now until the inspection it will either be disorganized or will be transferred to the engineering branch of the service.
"We have permission to do this," said Captain Jones, "but final arrangements for the transfer have not yet been completed." Captain Jones and Dean P. F. Walker of the School of Engineering will go to Topeka tomorrow to confer with General C. I. Martin regarding the transfer.
"K. U. MOST LIKELY PLACE
In accordance with the National Defense Act of June 3, 1916, Kansas is authorised to employ engineers. Each company must have as officers a captain, two first lieutenants, and a second lieutenant who are either graduates of an engineering school, practising engineers, or members of a national engineering college, likely that this is the only point in the state, aside from Manhattan where the Agricultural College is located, that officers could be found and it is not likely that they would care to organize such a company, since already have a regiment of cadets."
Several professors in the School of Engineering are interested in the move. Among these are Dean Walker, F. E. Johnson, of the department of electrical engineering, R. L. Grider, of the department of mining engineering, A. H. Sluss and J. O. Jones of the department of mechanical engineering, the faculty members of the School of Engineering who are interested in the project will be held at Marvin Hall this afternoon.
FILL BANKS WITH ENGINEERS
If the change is made, the men who are now members of the company will likely transfer, and the remainder of the required sixty-five men would probably be recruited from the School of Civil Engineering. The engineer twelve sergeants and ten corporals are required, and all the men now in the company would likely be used as noncommissioned officers. Company "M" under its present organization has usually had students as lieutenants, but this will be impossible if the transfer becomes the high requirements necessary for officers in engineering companies.
Company "M" at present has neither a first or second lieutenant, so it is probable that in case an engineering company is organized, the remaining three officers will be taken from the School of Engineering. Some of the faculty men of this school have had military drill.
TWO INSTRUCTORS RESIGN
Resignations of two faculty members were accepted by the Board of Administration Friday. Prof. Earl O'Roke, instructor in the department of zoology has accepted a similar position in the University of Wyoming. A graduate degree and advanced advancement are the reasons given for the change. Prof. O. L. Maig, instructor in the department of chemistry, has resigned to go into commercial work. Both of these resignations are to take effect February 12. Professor O'Rake's successor has not yet been announced. Those to be assigned MsMaig will be distributed among the other members of the chemistry faculty.
On account of the large number enrolled in some of the other departments assistant instructors have been added. Kenneth Pringle has been appointed as an academic oricer, Ernest E. Tippen assistant in physics, and Hazel N. Rice and O. J. Weir assistants in mathematics. Gerhard Baerg has received the appointment of instructor in German, to take part in teaching courses who has secured a leave of absence.
Board of Administration Fills Vacancies
Hugh Marshall and Carl Walker have been appointed student assistants in the water and sewerage industry of the department of chemistry.
The regular meeting of the geology club will be held in Haworth Hall tomorrow afternoon at 4:30.
PROFESSOR WILL TALK ON
FRENCH POLITICAL PARTIES
A lecture on "Forty Years of Political Evolution in France; The Political Parties Under the Third Republic" will be given by Dr. Albert de Lapradeille, March 5, at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Hall.
Professor de Lapradelle took his doctor's degree in the University of Paris in 1891. He became professor of international law first in the University of Paris and then at the University of Paris. Since 1905 Doctor de Lapradelle has edited "The Recuclie des Arbitrages Internationalaux" and since 1909 "The Revenue De Droit International Prive." He was French visiting professor at the University of Columbia in 1912 and received an honorary doctor's degree there.

AMERICANS LED BY WRONG IDEALS
Rush for Money Dulls Sense of Beautiful, Says Hol-
INFERIOR TO ORIENTALS
Japan and China Fast Approaching Civilization of the United States
"America will lose its much boasted of civilization to despised China or Japan unless we hesitate in our mad rush for money and material goods," said Stoutton Holborn in a 2015 interview on "The Need of Art in Life."
Mr. Holborn contended that the greatest need of our modern civilization is a sense of the beautiful. Every civilization, he said, should be composed of three well balanced disciplines, the scientific, the intellectual and the moral.
Mr. Holborn said only the Greek civilization had all three of these in the correct proportions. The Italians at the time of the Renaissance had the artistic and the intellectual, but lacked in the moral. In our own time we have have the intellectual and moral, but have lost our sense of the artistic.
GREEKS WERE PERFECT
"The fact," he said, "is due to our materialism and sensationalism. The streets of Athens in the golden age of Greece contained more beautiful statues than they contained people on ordinary occasions, but in our age there are even more pictures of advertisements of somebody's soap or to some sensational movie.
Another evidence of our senat-
tation's attentions and stories
in modern newspapers.
AMERICA SENSATIONAL
It is vulgar to be rich, he said, because it shows we don't know when it comes. "I think it's vulgar."
Mr. Holborn, who has just returned from Japan, said the Japanese have a well developed sense of the beautiful. The large cities, he said, had no slums, and no screeching advertisements are to be seen along the highways. The dress of Japanese women is more beautiful and sensible than the dress of American women, which he terms ugly and in poor taste.
The Supreme Court held that as the Board of Administration was not incorporated at that time, it was not legally responsible for the acts of the Board of Regents. The Board of Regents controlled the University at the time of the removing of this fossil from the farm. The fossil is now on exhibition in the University Museum.

Supreme Court Decided In Favor of University
Garrity owns a farm in Wallace County. About four years ago, a curator, aided by several University of Kansas students removed the remains of some animal of the prehistoric ages from the Garrity farm, so Garrity contended in the suit he brought for damages.
An eighteen million year old fossil will be retained by the University of Kansas without paying Peter L. Garrard $2,500 for it. The Supreme Court Saturday upheld the Doughs County District Court in refusing Garrity's demands of the state board of administration for that sum.

CHANCES BRIGHT FOR MORE ROOMS
RAPS SCHOOL LOBBYISTS
Representative Martin Asks That House be Let Alone
Representative Martin, of Hutchinson, speaking in the House yesterday complained of the lobbying being done by the University and stated that he believed the University should receive more money, but that the legisla-
tor should not be responsible for the lobbying done by state schools. The House warmly applauded him.
A blanket increase of nine per cent for maintenance and salaries of all schools has been agreed upon, it is said, by the committees. Upon this basis the University would receive $642,555 for 1918 and $653,555 for 1919. It received $629,500 in 1916 and $653,500 in 1917, all amounts for the same purpose. $6,000,000 are spent annually on Kansas roads and bridges.
The University of Kansas will probably receive $150,000 for new class rooms if a reported agreement of the ways and means committee is adopted by the state legislature. It is understood that the University will use this money for the main wing of the new Administration Building.
VOTE FOR CONVENTION MAY PASS
Final vote on the resolution to enable voters of Kansas to decide the question of a constitutional convention will be decided in the Senate today. Twenty-seven votes are required for passage and at the last vote, the court was 25 to 15 in favor of submitting the question to the neoone.
Chancellor Frank Strong reported over telephone yesterday that the legislature then in session seemed to be only weakly in favor of the plans for building the main part of Administration Building. The committees are reported to have agreed on $50,000 for a new chemistry building and $80,000 for more land at the Marquis. The committee also $200,000 for a new building to replace the one which burned at the Pittsburg Normal School.
If the constitutional convention is held it is quite likely that the features of the Permanent Income Bill will be made a part of the new constitution. If the Income Bill becomes a state law in this manner, the present struggle for appropriations in the legislature every two years will be abolished.

Dean P. F. Walker and Prof. G. C. Shaad, of the School of Engineering, plan to go tomorrow to Valley Falls, where their advice has been asked with regard to putting in an electric lighting plant.
Dean Walker, will speak to the Commercial Club in the evening on the development of manufacturing industries, and Professor Shaad will discuss the feasibility of establishing an electric lighting plant in Valley Falls.
Many engineering students and several members of the faculty are attending the motor show in Kansas City, this week. The Mechanical Engineers plan to feature the Motor Show for several weeks in their construction course having special talks on the progress made in motor car construction.

The Weather
Unsettled weather tonight and Wed-

UNABLE TO SUPPLY DEMAND FOR GRADUATE ENGINEERS
"It is harder to find graduate electrical and mechanical engineers than it is to find the positions for them," said Dean P. F. Walker, of the School of Engineering, today. "This is especially true of the Mechanics for there have already been more positions than we will be able to fill this year."
The Westinghouse, Central and Western Electrical Companies have already made applications for graduates, both from the electrical and the mechanical departments. Every year two to six graduate students go to these companies where they have opportunities for rapid advancement.
DISMISS CLASSES FOR CONVOCATION
The adviser feels she should have the opportunity to talk in her official capacity to the women of the University at least once in a semester and such a meeting as this one will inclure them in discussion and make it more valuable to women.
Mona Clare Huffman, president of the W, S, G, A., will speak very briefly concerning the attitude of the Stuart Association toward women's activities.
All classes will be dismissed while Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, answers the question, "Why," before the woman's convocation at 10:10 Friday. This "Why" is not merely a question—it is rather a solution to some of the problems which are confronting University women.
"This is the first time a convocation hour has been given to women exclusively," said Mrs. Brown this morning, "and we will have things to discuss which are as vital although not quite so thrilling as those the men discussed at their 'naughty rally' convocation."

SOLDIERS GET MORE PAY

Militiamen Expect Extra Pay for Summer Work
Members of Company M may each receive over sixty dollars extra pay for their services on the border last summer, if an appropriation bill introduced in the state legislature is passed. One legislator found there was a law on the statute books which provided that members of the guard when called into service should receive the sum of one dollar per day, the same as the rate on state day, and the bill which has been introduced is intended to make up the difference between the state rate and the federal rate of pay.
Members of Company M have not yet received money spent for carfare in reaching Lawrence when the call was made. Every guardman is entitled to carfare in reaching his home and is required to bring to law, and money for this purpose will also be to be appropriated by the legislature. In the case of Company M, the item of carfare was a large one, as the company at the time of the call was widely scatched in New York, California, West Virginia, Georgia, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Kansas.

Pikers Outplay Jayhawkers in Second Half But Rally Falls Short
The Jayhawk quintet tied up for second place in the Missouri Valley championship race last night by defeating the Washington University five in Robinson Gymnasium by the score of 34 to 26.
Laslett tied the score at two-and a with a long field goal from the sidelines. Thomas threw another free goal, and Benway, the Washington U, left forward, bagged a field goal before the Jayhawkers scored again.
HAWKERS STAGE SPURT
Gibbens, Kansas right forward, tied the score in the middle of the first half when he caged a long one and followed with a free one. Thomas added another free goal and the Jayhawkers began a bohmardment of the goal which netted them eight field baskets.
The Washington five came back strong in the second half and open! with a field basket by Benway, Scrubby Laslett connected with another field basket, and the Washington five piled up eleven points before Kansas scored again. During the entire half, Washington U. outplayed the team's defense department of the game, making a point of 20 to 13 for the Jayhawks. The half ended with the score standing 34 to 26 in favor of Kansas.
BOTH TEAMS FOREFM Both teams played rugged basketball from first to finish on the Jayhawkers were simply dead on their feet and no one seemed to play up to usual form. Long shots as the basket and unnecessary dribbling slowed up the game and kept the Kansas score down.
The box score was:

MERCHANTS' COURSE ENDS
More Unity Shown Than in Previous Years
"Greater unity was present in the Merchants' Short Course just ended than was ever evident before," said Hankham, secretary of the Extension Division. "Every meeting was full of that spirit and the merchants liked the course." We are working more for the small-town merchant than the large-town store-keeper and this always keeps us busy. We also work with Wichita, and other larger cities."
More towns were represented than in any previous year. Not as many out-of-the-state merchants were enrolled.
Appreciation was expressed by every merchant of the course. The banquet given by the Lawrence merchants was successful. The mid-day lunches were well-attended. More women than ever were enrolled. The men had plenty to eat and were glad to give it to the merchants.
And they are coming back next year. That is the biggest thing.
Students Walk To Toneka
As a unique way of celebrating the birthday of the great Emancipator seven K. U. students walked to Topeka, Sunday night. They started at eight o'clock Sunday evening and arrived in Topeka at four Monday morning covering the distance of twenty-seven miles in eight hours. They rode on bicycles to nature." Those who went were Albert Christman, Jesse Sherwood, Arthur Lahey, Ray Cottrell, Neal Carman, Floyd Lynn and William Morris.

ART EXHIBIT
It all began when someone with a real love for art made arrangements for an annual exhibition of the works of American artists in the Administration Building. There, each year, were assembled the most representative pictures that were being done in America. Of course the thing grew in more immediately; and the annual exhibits became exceedingly popular.
Townspeople, for instance, gladly climbed the Hill and paid an admission of twenty-five cents to see the exhibition. The students, being on the "inside," were given free tickets at the registrar's office. And each year the record for attendance was raised higher and higher.
This year—right now—the annual exhibition is being held on the top floor of Administration. There are assembled there a considerable number of pictures which critics say are the best ever shown at Kansas. Now, the way to learn to like good pictures—if you don't already—is to see them. The way to see them is to apply for a ticket at the registrar's office, and then wander over to the Ad. Once there, it's safe guessing that you'll hate to leave.
Perhaps you don't believe this
T'ry it and see!
EXPERIENCES
Only too often we shirk experiences if we imagine they will be hard or unpleasant. Yet no life is full and rich and really worth while without unpleasant or hard experiences. If one has never had temptation himself, he will have very little tolerance for the failings of others; if he has never been wounded or hurt he will never understand the hurts that rankle with others. We must not allow our experiences to make us hard hearted or materialistic, but rather more gentle, tolerant and helpful to others.
Human nature. Stude who pulls a "I" says, "Anyone with a little stuff can get by in that course." Same stude when he flunks, "It's not a question of knowledge; it depends on whether the prof slept well the night before he graded your quiz paper."

How many students sleep with their windows open at night? It is appalling to note how many persons who should know the value of fresh air, sleep with tightly closed windows, breathing and re-breathing the same air they breathed while studying.
FRESH AIR
It is true that we are becoming more enlightened every day as to the value of fresh air, and with this enlightement come the modern sleeping porch, ventilating systems and fresh air cures. Yet, many supposedly educated students still cling
to the old idea that all cold air should be carefully excluded, and they try to keep healthy by the use of pills and patent medicines.
Some class rooms are crowded and ill-ventilated, and the library is often close, but this is the more reason why the student should have fresh air at night to refresh his system and strengthen his resisting powers. Night should be the time for rest and recuperation, and pure, fresh air is as necessary to breath, as pure, unpulsed water to drink.
"But," the student says, "our room is always so cold, if we can never get it warm again." The ordinary room cools off at night anyway, with the heat turned off six or seven hours, and it takes no longer to warm fresh air than to warm stale air.
Do you study late at night in a close, stuffy room, and then retire in the same room with every window down, depending on the cracks to furnish you oxygen? And do you wonder why you are so sensitive to cold, and catch cold so easily, and why you never feel well? And then do you write to the home folks, and tell them that you think you are overworking?
Maybe the ground hog crawled back in his hole but the ground dog is still with us. Ask any Greek whose frat is building a house?
Open up the windows at night.
Fresh air costs nothing, and is often a life saver. And furthermore, it is one of the few things, the supply of which, is not affected by the war.
It is told that a local girl found a diamond ring inside her breakfast egg. If it is a genuine diamond it may yield a slight profit on the purchase of the egg—but only a slight one.
And what has become of the old fashioned girl who was thoroughly satisfied with a dime's worth of candy?
Now comes the natural history enthusiast who announces a woodpecker's idea of Heaven is a job in a Swiss cheese factory.
And then he chirps in with the unusual statement that the mule has a kick like a mule. Remarkable.
A headline tells us a woman was pronounced insane because she hung hams on doorknobs. Many a steward would be glad to place a whole house full of doorknobs at the lady's disposal.

SECOND-HAND THOUGHTS
He is the man who has positive opinions and information on many matters-opinions and information which, when you trace them out, you find always to be based on what somebody else has said.
He is the kind of man who is given to dogmatic assertions on any and all subjects of discusssion, and whose opinions are fully outlined in a recent magazine.
The "echo" is an interesting type of personality.
Devoid of originality, recording and later reproducing the thoughts of others, the "echo" never seems to be a real thing — even now it's the most forceful in an conversation.
Because he does lack originality, he never can see any flaw in anything he says. The person who does not agree with him in every detail is entirely wrong. He alone is the man who knows what he's doing because the first man he heard express any views whatever on the subject in question agreed with him.
Even though he may make grievous and ludicrous errors at times, certainly the man who thinks his own thoughts is more endurable than he plays the role of a phonograph record.—Ohio Lantern.
"The Mississippiian" has been conducting a ballot to determine the opinion of the students as to the most qualified ones for various honors. Among the celebrities to be chosen are Mr. Jordan, the Mendosa man, and best student; but others are not so commonplace. Among the latter are biggest liar, biggest ladies' man, biggest grafter, greenest freshman, and "freshest" freshman. In the vote as to what kind of grief the students participate in the majority. Other answers to this were fat, skinny, strong, and white—Daily Texan.

POET'S CORNER
We are blind to a snowy morning,
With its myriad sparkling gems;
The things of the earth
We've just the same beauty around us, if only our souls weren't blind;
But the artist who painted the picture
Or the poet who wrote an ode,
or a song.
In the thing he did On just the common road.

re not to be found in them
When we look up problems With eyes that are willing to find.
That have to be Are not to be found in them
But we arrive too hard for the hidden
And sigh for the chances gone;
NEVER NO.

He dreamed he died
And went to

"Ah hah!" chuckled
The devil—
"Thou didst havest

Did you ever stop to think why you knock on wood when you have just boasted of some good fortune? Well, if you don't know why you do it, I'll tell you. It is so that your good fortune will not be taken from you and you will still fall into the fall. But why don't you rap on tin or dirt or something? Why wood?
Knock on Wood
People used to believe that wood had a magic charm and power against evil. Sacrifices were made to the deities of the trees, and it was the chief aim of our forefathers to keep these spirits out of harm. In many cases a piece of wood, a twig or any part of a tree, insured a certain amount of success, good fortune and safety.
That Yale University is strongly in favor, of universal compulsory military training in the United States was shown by the result of a straw ballot that would have last week. The total number of votes amounted to 1,400 of which 1,112 or 80 per cent., were in favor of some form of universal training. In addition it was officially announced that two representative undergraduate students from the Student Council, supported the majority. This may be taken as a clear indication of Yale's attitude in regard to the general idea of compulsory military service. However, no particular form was specified, nor was the answer to the special pill should be discussed at present.-McGill Daily.
Lovers and warriors always wore a little piece of wood to bring them success. After a while men forgot the spirits, but they never forgot the wood, and the sacredness of the tree still remained, so they only needed to touch it to bring them success.—Ohio State Lantern.

DR. GRAY OPENS SHORT CAMPAIGN
Kansas City Minister Gives Series of "Modern Messages" to Students
ASK PEOPLE TO THINK
Consider Fundamental Problems of Life—Last Service Tonight
Dr. Joseph M. M. Gray, of Grand Avenue Temple, Kansas City, began a series of religious meetings for the students of the University, at the Methodist church Sunday night. Dr. Gray is delivering what he calls "A Group of Modern Messages for University Men and Women."
Dr. Gray's lectures are particularly applicable to university life. The subject of his address Sunday night was "Entrance Examinations." In this course, the students would question the college man and woman would be compelled to answer as they enter upon their life's work is that of their attitude toward religion. "We have come to a very brave and bold person," he said. We defy anybody to question us about our religion, and no one is more brave and bold than the college student."
"ASK STUDENTS
THE PURPOSE of these services",
said D. Gray in a meeting of the Y.
M. C. A, and Y. W. C. A. workers,"is not to embarrass anyone by asking whether or not he is a Christian, but to try to get the men and women of the University to think more seriously on matters of religion."
LEADERSHIP COME FROM MID-
Atlens Halls AFTER afternoon
of the meeting to the men of the
University on the subject, "Some Problems
of Leadership." In this talk Dr. Gray said that he recently had a letter from John R. Mott, saying he had records and statistics to prove that he was active in student activist movements in America come from the colleges of the middle west. "We are living in the greatest century the world has ever seen," said Dr. Gray. "However soon the war in Europe ends we shall never go anywhere as it was prior to August, 1914."
"The greatest loss that the war will bring about will not be the loss of money and property, but the loss of mind. The greatest minds of the world have gone down in the dust of the trenches, and whatever leadership is to carry the world forward during the next thirty years, we must come up for this leadership must come from the colleges and universities of the middle west."
Dr. Gray spoke to the students last night at the Methodist church on the subject, "The Major Elective." He explained how the elective was rewarded recounted after the service.
Dr. Gray will speak at 4:30 this afternoon at Myers Hall to the women of the University, and again tonight at 7:30 at the Methodist church to both men and women. The meeting tonight will be the last of the series.

Y. M.-Y. W. Valentine Party "Stick around the Gym after the basketball game Saturday night. There'll be something doing."
These are the words of Clarence Gorrill and Itasca Hillsman, chairmen of the Y. M.-Y. W. entertainment committees which are staging the annual All-University Valentine Party in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday night. Just what is the number of the entertainment committees to tell; but much more important in the room rooms Myers Hall is taken as a pretty good indication that the coming party will surpass all others of the year for uniqueness and elaborateness.
The party will be given on the lower floor of the Gym, and will begin immediately after the basketball game. "Group" amusements of some mysterious sort will be in order, and there will be genuine entertainment.
An admission price of ten cents will be charged. "And that doesn't begin to pay for the cost of the eats," say the committee chairmen.
Architects' Banquet The Architectural Engineers will give their annual banquet Thursday night, 7:30, at the Eldridge House.
Girls' Prom

WOMEN SCHEDULE DOUBLE HEADER
Junior Women vs. Ottawa University, Freshmen vs. Polytechnic Saturday
The big basketball games of the season for Jayhawker women will be in Robinson gymnasium at three o'clock Saturday when the undefeated junior women's team clashes with the Ottawa University team, and the unbeaten sextette will battle with Polytechnic Institute sextette of Kansas City.
Both of the games promise to be hard fought from start to finish. The junior women showed up exceptionally well in the practice yesterday. The feature of their playing was the ability of every player to pass fast and accurately, while the forwards hardly played well. Dr. Daum, a running center, has been playing a stellar game in practices and will be in the game Saturday.
Enthusiasm in women's basketball runs high, according to Coach Pratt; women cheerleaders will install the K. U. fighting spirit into the Jayhawk teams by leading the women fans in some roaring Jayhawker yells.
Serubby Laslett played the fastest floorwork for Kansas and also ranked second in the Kansas scoring with five field goals.
The junior lineup for the game will be: Sara Trant, Joyce Brown, and Dorothy Querfeild, forwards; Captain Dorothy Tucker, Gladys Dissinger, and Freda Daum, centers; Ruth Endacott, Lucile Sterling, and Nelle Leibengood, guards. The freshman line-up will be announced later.
SPORT BEAMS
The Uhrlaub twins played a good game and showed evidence of teamwork. Their chief characteristic is the speed at the first and fight to the finish.
The standing of the Missouri Valley Conference teams at present is:
G. W. L. Pct.
Missouri 8 6 2 .750
Kansas 9 6 3 .667
Aggies 4 6 2 .667
Ames 5 2 3 .400
Drake 1 0 1 .000
Nebraska 2 0 2 .000
Washington U. 5 0 5 .000
Benway, Washington U. left forward, made the biggest hit with the audience last night. At one time he took the ball away from Lytle, Kunan and drilled the entire length of the floor at top speed, and then shot goal.
Skating is the king of outdoor sports at present. Sunday afternoon almost five hundred University students and citizens of Lawrence were skating on the Kaw river. People of all ages and sizes were there, from under the age of ten to the senior haired man about sixty-five or seventy years old.
Prof. Arthur MacMurray, of the department of public speaking, and Dorothy Querfeld, star forward on the junior women's basketball team and all-round athlete, were the stellar performers on the ice.
Professor MacMurray gave an exhibition of a fancy stunt known as the Crazy-Pall, which was real thrilling. The exhibition was that he left out the fall.
Fat Nelson, captain of the K. U. basketball team, and Harold Miller, Varsity high jumper, are enrolled in the class of Women's Principles of Sport. The other cock is the other senior enrolled in this class in which there are fourteen
women. Many of the women are looking forward with anticipation to the time when these three men have to make their way under the tutelage of Hazel Pratt.
The junior and freshman girls' basketball teams practiced Saturday morning in preparation for the two games Saturday afternoon, February 17. The freshman girls will play the girls' team from the Junior Polytech team, while the girls' team will play the girls' team from the Ottawa University. In the Saturday practice the juniors easily defeated the freshman team.
Many women are swimming daily in the Robinson pool in preparation for the swimming meet to be held soon.
Missouri won from Nebraska Friday at Lincoln, 18 to 16, and Saturday, 18 to 7. A play-off period was determined the winner of the first game.
The Kansas Aggies made twenty-seven fouls in the series just ended at Manhattan which they won Friday, 34 to 17, and Saturday, 46 to 17. If they make that many in the two games at Columbia this week, Missouri will have at least a twenty-point advantage in the two games.
The class of the K. U. basketball team when they are playing true to form is best shown by the fact that Chicago at Ames Saturday, 27 to 20

Extreme uncertainty exists thru-out the play, as to the identity of a certain mysterious stranger and it is not until the last few moments that the audience is lifted from its suspense.
Beautiful girls also have their part—sirens and detectiveettes fit here and there thru-out the play. It is needless to say, after this, that a pretty little love affair winds its way thru the plot.

$100,000 COLLECTION
OFFERED UNIVERSITY
BY MRS. W.B. THAYER
Art Subjects Representing History of Paintings Gathered by K. C. Woman
MUST PROVIDE BUILDING
Prof. Griffith Has Bill Introduced in Legislature Providing Suitable Quarters
THAYERS EARLY KANSANS
Universities of Missouri and Nebraska Desire Collection
Mrs. W. B. Thayer of Kansas City has offered to loan her $100,000 art collection to the University, with the possibility of permanency, if the state will build a place suitable for exhibition of such a valuable collection.
"The collection is of great value to the University," said W. A. Griffith, head of the department of drawing and painting, "for the collection represents the history and development of design. It consists of textiles, ceramics, jade, prints, savage arts and paintings."
OTHER SCHOOLS WANT PICTURES Both the University of Missouri and the University of Nebraska have tried to get the collection, but K. U. is closer to Mrs. Thayer and will get it if a proper place is built for it.
"There is no place on the campus at present where the collection could be housed, but it is hoped that the legislature will see this big opportunity for the University and make the necessary appropriations. The loan is for four years, so the history which you learn is that they be permanent donations. This would be one of the largest donations ever made to the University."
Mrs. Thayer is a member of the firm of Emery, Bird Thayer and Company. She was born from the Thayer family that was prominent in early Kansas history.
PROF. GRITHFIELD PUBLISHED
Professor Griffith returned from Topeka yesterday and where he went to inform the legislature of the mayor. He had also been working to get an appropriation for a building suitable for all art purposes and especially to provide a place to house this exhibit. He says he succeeded in getting the bill before the house again and he believes that the legislature may make the appropriation.
CLUBS PLAN CO-OP STORE
Store
Student Organizations Want to Buy Goods From One
Another meeting will be held in about a week to consider the report of the committee, and take whatever steps the committee may recommend.
Plans for a co-operative store for handling meat and groceries have not been perfected yet, according to Roy Tourtelet, the originator of the idea. A meeting of stewards of the different boarding clubs was held, and a committee, with Tourtelet, was appointed to investigate investigations using the practicability of the enterprise and perfect plans for its organization.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEB RUARY 14, 1915
"There is no reason why co-operative buying should not be more economical and more satisfactory than the present plan," said Mr. Tao, who established a co-operative store controlled entirely by the students, or to organize and do all our buying from one store. In case the latter plan is followed we shall ask the different stores to fill up their stock, so that they will furnish the different commodities used by the clubs. I have already interviewed some of the grocers in regard to the matter and at the next meeting some of them will meet us and will have on hand samples of goods on which they will name prices."
If a co-operative store is established it will be in charge of the students, and will be operated on a commission basis, just enough commission beig charged to cover the actual operating expenses.
Fagan Back for Visit

The Portmanteau Theater is a stage within a stage. It is complete within itself, including an equipment that takes in everything, even to the floor of the stage on which the players appear. Most of the plays given in the Portmanteau Theater are one act plays but a five act melodrama or musical comedy can be given upon its stage as well.
Stuart Walker, the inventor of the little theater is a student of David Belasco. He was for a number of years a stage director in the productions of Mr. Belasco and the plays and actors in the Portmanteau Theater to show. The aim of the inventor of the little theater is to express the spirit of play. This Mr. Walker thinks has been lost in the modern theater.

WOULD HAVE MILITARY TRAINING FOR WOMEN
Prominent Women on Faculty Advocates Equal Responsibility in Preparedness
WE NEED WOMEN IN WAR
"There is a Sphere for Women at Front"—Refuses to Disclose Name
That it is as much the duty and responsibility of every woman to be efficiently trained in preparation for war as of every man is the opinion expressed today by a prominent woman on the U.S. faculty who考了 the movement in the present movement for preparedness and "impulsory military training."
"The newspapers speak of the present situation as though men were the sole factors in military preparedness," said Miss Faculty Member, who requested that her name be withheld because she was one of the ones who will be called to the front to do the actual fighting, but it is equally true that women who possess the same civil rights and feel the same emotional patriotism as keenly interested, should share in the expression of the practical or effective patriotism.
OUTLINES PLANS FOR ENGINEERING COMPANY
WOMEN MUST SERVE IN WAR "In case of war the women will be called upon for many services of strictly military nature, such as hospital service, first aid field service, and clinical work behind the lines, and it is essential if we are to have a fully developed and well trained military force to give the women the necessary advance training.
"It is the duty of every woman at least to think as seriously as the men on this question, and they should be posted on matters of international concern, peace and peace. The subject is just as vital to them as it is to the men."
POLITY CLUB FOR WOMEN
Capt. F. E. Jones Explains Work to Company "M" Men at Regular Drill
Miss Faculty Member also advocated the establishment of an International Polity Club for women at the University of Kansas, founded much on the same plan as the men's club of the same name. "It would be nice to have a place where we could combine, but we must recognize the fact that in this part of the country at least the men are better grounded in matters of International relations than are the women. Perhaps it would be advisable at first to have a woman president and a club along more elementary, but no less important lines.
"The newspapers, in their eagerness for a universal system of military service," continued Miss F. M., have over-empressured the superficial arguments in favor of this training. We need to get good physical development is by military training. It is equally fallacious to attribute certain phases of mental and moral development to drill with guns and swords. If there is an argument for military training, it will be an effective expression of patriotism, and the women should share equally with the men in this expression."
Edward Kendrick, c'18, who went to his home in Kansas City Monday with a severe case of tonsillitis, is reported much improved this morning by the Sigma Fraternity. "We received a card from Bud This month," he said, as his mother, "he doesn't say when he will be back, but he is evidently improving rapidly."
FACULTY FAVORS CHANGE
Students of Engineering School Meet Tomorrow at 3:30 to Discuss Plans
Pad Kendrick Improving
Plans for the organization of an engineering company of National Guard at the University were outlined by Capt. F. E. Jones to the members of the university's militaryular drill held by the company since its return from the Mexican border.
Captain Jones said that member of the faculty in the School of Engineering met yesterday afternoon to meet with one of their professors themselves as being highly in favor of the plan. Dean Walker has consented to serve as a lieutenant, at least until the company is well organized, and two other professors, one of whom has had military training, have agreed to act as the other two professors. The names of the other two professors have not yet been made public.
A CARTOON IN WORDS
DEPARTMENT COMPLETE PLAN
"Some of the professors in the Sobe have been considering joining the officers' reserve corps," said Captain Jones, "and they are much pleased at having an opportunity to enlist in the regular service instead of the reserve since this will give them the advantage of drill."
Plans have already been worked out by the war department for the establishing at the University of Kansas the company of engineers and all that remains yet to be done is to complete arrangements with the state department of defense, and conferring with Gen. C. L. Martin and final arrangements for the establishment of the company will probably be made at this conference.

DEPARTMENT COMPLETES PLAN
STUDENTS MEET TOMORROW
This is
A meeting of all engineering students will be held Thursday at 3:30 in Marvin Hall for the purpose of learning their attitude in regard to the matter. The purpose of the new company and the conditions under which it will operate will be fully explained to them. No enlistments will be solicited but conferences will be arranged with members of the faculty for anyone desiring to join the company.
"In case the company is organized," said Captain Jones, "It is likely that the summer encampment can be held the first part of June, before the men return to their homes at the end of the spring semester. An annual summer camp for Leavenworth would instruct the K. U. engineers in this encampment."
Until some definite change is made Company M will continue to meet once a week for drill, and will receive pay for each drill night. In addition to this all property and equipment will be put in first class shape for the drill practice and for March 1. At this inspection all equipment must be in first class condition, and every piece of property issued by the state must be accounted for.
In case the new company is organized much new equipment will be necessary, and it is likely that all the employees of the company M will be turned back to the government and a complete new outfit of equipment requisitioned.

"Shakespeare's Last Message to the World" will be the subject of a lecture by Prof. G. C. Dunkel in Fraser chapel at four-thirty Thursday. This will be the third of a series of lectures given by members of the faculty. The talk will be based on Shakespeare's "Tempest" which is said to be Shakespeare's last message, his will and testament to the world. The novel "The Tempest" is considered by critics one of the world's masterpieces of poetry. It combines both poetry and drama and in content is a blending of the real and the ideal world. The lecture is open to both students and public.
SENATE VOTES AGAINST PROPOSED CONVENTION
Sweeping Constitutional Revision Loses by Two Votes in Upper House
The resolution enabling the voters of the state to decide on calling a constitutional convention was killed on final roll call in the Senate yesterday. The count stood 25 to 15 for the resolution just as it did last week. Twenty-seven votes are necessary for passage.
Senator Wilder S., Metcalf, of Douglas County, voted against the resolution after voting for it in a test vote last week. Three other senators changed their votes in the same manner. The vote of the senate practically does away with the possibility of holding a constitutional convention and the drafting of a new constitution of the Permanent Insurance Bill written to a new constitution made, because they considered its adoption into the new constitution as the easiest and surest way to make it a state law.
The defeat of the convention resolution appears to make almost certain the passage of the senate concurrent resolution number five introduced by Senator R. B. Barr of Fort Scott. This resolution proposes a change in the constitution permitting more than three amendments to the constitution to be submitted to the peoples' vote at each session of the state legislature. The senator was placed by motion of Senator F. C. Price, of Ashland, at the time he was leading the fight against the convention resolution.
This amendment was suggested as an alternative to the constitutional convention by Governor Capper in his message to the legislature to meet the deadline for implementation. At the present time there can only be three amendments submitted to the people every two years and as the Permanent Income Bill would have to be one of these three bills it would be necessary to issue this message in this session of the legislature.
WOMEN WILL RALLY
There seems to be little doubt as to the importance and need of the Income Bill but there is a possibility that the bill may not be one of the three submitted to the people. The Bill is to show the legislature that it is one of the three which should be voted upon by the people of the state.

James Knoles, c'20, is Confined on Third Floor With Light Attack of Disease
DISAGREE ON DIAGNOSIS
County Health Officer Says Case is Chicken Pox; Sundwall Says Smallpox
FUMIGATE FRAT HOUSE
Delta Taus Take Every Preca-
tion to Prevent Spread
James Knoles, c'20, of Kingman, a members of the Delta Tau fraternity, is quarantined on the third floor of the University hospital with a case of smallpox. Knoles was first admitted to the University Sunday morning to the University hospital, where his disease was diagnosed as smallpox. He was not allowed to return to the Delta Tau house, but was given a room on the hospital building, removed from the other inmate of the hospital.
Some disagreement between physicians regarding the diagnosis of the case has developed. Doctor Sundwall, University physician, says the case is unquestionably smallpox, while Dr. John C. Rudolph, county health officer, declared this morning the smallpox from Dakota box, but at the same time objects to Knoles remaining in the University hospital, which is now occupied by many students suffering from grip and sore throats.
KNOLES STAYS IN HOSPITAL
The University isolation hospital is occupied by a measles case. For that reason, Doctor Sundwall petitioned Doctor Crumbine, secretary of the state board of health, for permission to open the hospital. This request was granted by Doctor Crumbine, and, while Doctor Rudolph objects to a patient suffering from a contagious disease being housed in the general hospital, he has authority to revoke the authorization of the secretary of the state board of health.
"Less danger will attend the retention of Knoles in the University hospital, removed as he is from other patients, than would result from placing him in the isolation hospital when he was admitted while the present inmate of the hospital would be exposed to smallpox," declared one of the University health officers this morning. The Delta Tau Delta house was closed all day yesterday for fumigation. The rooms were empty for the fumigation, and were not opened until nine o'clock last evening.
VACCINATE FRAT MEN
The hospital will not be quarantined, it was announced this morning. "Such a move is hardly necessary," said a member of the health committee this morning. "Knoles is occupying a room on the third floor, removed from other patients in the hospital, or from visitors. There is no danger of the disease being contracted at such a great distance."
The Delta Tau Delta house like-
wise will not be quarantined, as the
thorough fumigation given it yester-
day will allow to free it of all
smallpox germs.
VACCINATE FRACT MEN
Since the diagnosis of Knoles' disease as smallpox, fifteen members of the Delta Tau Delta Fraternity have been vaccinated, and they were still visiting the hospital at noon today. Other students on the hill, who had heard of the development of a case of smallpox, also have received vaccination at the University hospital.
MRS. BROWN WANTS BIG
CROWD AT CONVOCATION
Invitations have been issued to the various sororities and girls' organizations, urging them to attend the women's convocation, tomorrow. No special program has been planned, other than the talks by Mrs. Eustace Brown and Mona Clare Hoffman on the subject, "Why."
This convoction, according to Mrs. Brown, is important in that it establishes a precedent in women's convoctions; she expects to hold each semester.
Professor MacMurray says the announcement that appeared in the Kansan a few nights ago in regard to the Missouri Valley Oratorian Contest should not have limited invitation to the debating society, for it was extended to the entire student body. Any students interested in this contest are requested to see Professor MacMurray immediately.

CAMPUS BEAUTY
The University is proud of its campus. Daily, efforts are made to overcome practices which tend to destroy the natural beauty of the grounds. The thoughtless student cuts across the lawns and scatters debris along the walks. He is negligent. However, it was not due to negligence that an ugly clap-trap billboard was constructed yesterday across from the bulletin board. The presence of such an eye-sore is a direct violation of a policy to maintain the beauty of the campus.
A COMMON SENSE APPEAL
Doctor Gray won the approval of the students of the University of Kansas with his simple, direct talks in his short religious campaign at the Methodist church. He knows how to look at student problems as the student looks at them, and he is a willing counsellor for all. His appeal for students to consider the fundamental problems of life was well received and will doubtless meet with popular response.
Doctor Gray has made a success of his work in the Grand Avenue Temple in Kansas City. His method appeals to all classes. It is easy for University students to determine the value of this man and the measures which brought success to him.
The student does not want to announce publicly that he is going to enter upon a new life. Doctor Gray does not want him to. All he asks is that the student, when alone, consider the fundamental problems of life and determine for himself the right course.
DAY BY DAY
There is a very materialistic policy to live in the present, not to grieve about the past or worry over the future—just to try to get all one can of joy and improvement out of each day, but also to remember that for all that one gets in this world, either one must pay, or some one else, a double fee. So it is for us, as well, to try to put into each day all that we can, of help and encouragement and joy for others.
MORE BOOSTERS NEEDED
The University Hospital is deserving of less criticism. Most of the knockers took a prejudiced stand against this new institution at the beginning of last year when all students were required to pay a two-dollar hospital fee for the first time. Almost immediately they began making slurring remarks about the inefficiency of the hospital and staff before either had been tried out to any extent.
it seems, however, that these same students are willing to submit to insulation or vaccination, or to treatment of sprains and bruises every now and then. If they secured this attention from a private doctor or hospital they would find that the two-dollar fee wouldn't be a starter.
The youth who wrote, "Quoth the Raven," in a sorority guest book is deserving of some credit at least—he was frank.
What is so rare as a day in February when the legislature appropriates enough money to finish the Administration Building?
There is talk of teaching Kipling in the high schools. Which means that he too will probably lose his popularity within the next generation and go the way of Shakespeare, Browning, and Dryden.
JUST A NAP!
When everything goes criss-cross, when every one with whom you come in contact irritate you unaccountably, when you act as if you were carrying a chip on your shoulder ready to be knocked off, when not one of the seven lessons piled up can be learned, just try taking a nap, with the windows up and the cool, air blowing in. Catch up on some of that lost sleep and see what a different aspect the world has.

THE HONOR SYSTEM
To many students the honor system is either a dead letter or in force only during examination week, and these people sat through classes all semester long with notebooks and textbooks open. Apparently in their minds there is a difference between dishonestly using performance during a recitation and during an examina- it. It is evident we need a new concept of the honor system vigorously observed this week and next. And next year let's start eat with a broader, clearer ideal—Daily Cardinal.

CAMPUS OPINION
Communication must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published.
Editor Kansan;
Owing to the inclement weather a few days ago the quarters which my roommate and I occupy have been rendered uninhabitable by the lack of heat, frozen hair tonic, and toilet water. After considering the matter my roommate and I decided to take up our abode elsewhere.
H. I. C.
Now some mischevious practical joker whose sense of humor is tainted with sublime sinimity and crass stupidity decided to perpetrate a hoax on us. In pursuance of their plutonic design they summoned me over the telephone and informed me that he had been asking a room. They further stated the party talking was Mr. Howard and if I would call number ___ I could talk with a party who had lodging to let students. Having consulted my roommate I called the aforementioned number and told the party at the other end of the line I would like to meet her. She seemed much surprised, not to say shocked, and told me that I was talking to Miss Z. at a certain sorority house.
In the light of the foregoing I deem it incumbent upon myself to apologize to Miss Z., which I forwish do, and in furtherance of the course of action which I have mapped out for the future, challenge, challenge me to meet at McCook Field any night after eight p. m.; to hear me expressin no uncertain terms, my opinion of him and his lik. If the one who caused me to receive my contremetts wishes to take exception to any of the facts set out in the above statement, he may do so but he must first meet me in any contest, short of mortal combat, which I did not inflict who was the cause of my unfortunate experience and hereby inform him that the less he says about it the better.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
CLOSES SHORT CAMPAIGN
Dr. Gray Delivers Last Address on the Duty of University
Women
Dr. Joseph M. M. Gray, of Kansas City, completed a series of enthusiastic religious meetings at the Methodist Church last night. All of the five addresses delivered by Dr. Gray during the campaign were particularly applicable to University men and women.
"University women must interpret democracy in the light of spiritual idealism," said Dr. Gray at a meeting of the Y. W. C. A. workers in Myers Hall yesterday afternoon. "The modern women are not bound by centuries of tradition and she is particularly fitted to do this." A typical case of the new place that women have taken in their lives is found in countries where women, clad in overalls, are doing men's work in the factories.
"In every field of work, formerly limited to men, women have proven themselves as efficient and in many cases more efficient than men. The responsibility for keeping this leadership in the political and social field opening to women rests with the present generation of University women."
Dr. Gray made the last address of the series to University men and women at the Methodist church last night.
VALENTINE DAY NOT AS OF OLDEN TIMES
Blame It On St. Valentine
If you get an ugly valentine this morning or any time today, you can blame it all on a Roman priest, named Valentine and called Saint (abbreviated St.) because he was a priest. But at that, St. Valentine wasn't to blame for the day and its consequences.
It so happened that this saint was first beaten with a club and then beheaded by common "plebes" of the Roman good-old-times. And that is all he had to do with the matter. Young men and women of those ancient times were wont to marry in the church, but now they must that our folks use June. Somehow they connected the killing of St. Valentine and marriage together and called this day St. Valentine's Day, the day of Marriage and courtship
But the original meaning has become degenerated and is now a more jocular festive day caused by the more common people sending ridiculous colored caricatures with burlesque verses below to each other. But occasionally we find a wooer sending a fatal wave with a piece of "Hymen's altar" and a pair undergoing initiation into wedded happiness before the altar, and hearts and darts decorating the corners of the sentiment."
But all of this is for the plbe. We do, however, find some young persons of note receiving boxes of card with tender verse appended apronto.
So what's the use?

Coach Hamilton tried out a new combination last night by starting the two Uhrlaura twins at forwards, Lytle at center, and Captain Nelson and Laslett at guards. This combination was one of all the players missed several shots at the basket. Laslett and Lytle each capped four from the field.
The Washington U. lineup was also changed and Captain Stout started at left guard in place of Kling. This change worked well and the team played a faster game than the night before.
Kansas started the scoring when R. Uhrlaub, threw a free goal after one minute of play. He repeated with another free goal thirty seconds later, followed immediately with a long field basket by Scrubby Laslett, fast Kansas left guard. Captain Benson connected for a field basket, and then Benway, the fast Washington U. right forward, cagged the first goal for the team to score goal for the剩余 of play. The rest of the first half was a nip-and-tuck affair and the half ended with the score standing at 17 to 12 in favor of Kansas.
The Jayhawker squad opened the scoring in the second half with a rush, R. Uhrlaub starting the scoring. After six minutes of play Captain Nelson was forced from the game because of personal fouls.
Kauer went in at left forward and E. Uhrlauk was shifted to right guard. McEllen also replaced Dunker, Washington right forward. A minute after play was resumed, Lukas caged a mid-field, and thirty second later R. Uhrlauk caged a long shot from the sidelines, making the score stand at 27 to 17 in favor of Kansas. During the rest of the half Washington U. outplayed Kansas. Four minutes before the third quarter, King Kling Thomas at center and two minutes later Laslett was forced from the game because of personal fouls. The game ended with the score standing at 33 to 25 in favor of Kansas.

SPORT BEAMS
The Jayhawker's last home games of the season will be played with the Nebraska five Friday and Saturday nights in Robinson Gymnasium. They promise to be the most exciting games that have been played here.
The fast, aggressive Haskell Indian goal-tossers will play the Kansas City University five at eight o'clock tonight in the new Haskell gymnasium. Several of the Indian players also play on the Haskell Indian football team.
The present standing of the Missouri Valley Conference teams is:
G. W. L. Pet.
Missouri ... 8 6 2.7
Kansas ... 10 7 3 .700
Aggles ... 6 4 2 .667
Ames ... 5 2 3 .400
Drake ... 1 0 1 .000
Nebraska ... 2 0 2 .000
Washington U. ... 6 0 6 .000
E. Uhrlaub was the only Kansas player who did not have one or more fouls assessed against him in the game last night, with the exception of Gibens, who played only the last two minutes of the game. Lyleth had the highest number, with six marked against him.
Benway, right forward, and Miller, right guard, played the best game for Washington in a fast-paced floor while Miller played a good game at guard.
One of the features of the Washington play was their peculiar style of throwing the ball into the court elevated seat stands near the side lines.
Potys Clark was a track man at Illinois and his knowledge of the game comes in handy now that he is able to help to get the distance men into shape.
Kansas made twenty-one fouls during the game last night, and the total for the accusers was thirty-two. Yet the averages were much higher. The game did not appear to be so rough.
Invitations are being sent out to the state high schools inviting them to attend the tenth annual high school basketball tournament to be held here in September,唯独 four hundred athletes were entered in the tournament last year.
Syracuse will meet Nebraska on the Lincoln football field next fall.

TRY-OUT FOR AGGIE MEET STARTS TODAY
Distance and Cross-Bar Events Will be Handled by Track Veterans
Try-outs for the Kansas Aggie track meet here February 19 will be held this afternoon and tomorrow in Robinson Gymnasium between four and six o'clock. The distance men will probably have their tryouts today while the dash and field events will come tomorrow.
The Agerges appear to be strongest in the distance events. Forman is back in the two mile, while Seeber, the miler of last year's team, and Shaw, a new man on the squad this season, are doing the mile. Shaw did some excellent running for his high school two years ago and has been doing good work this season. Keys, the star puncher on last year's team, back again this winter. He has been running the two mile part of the time this winter and it is possible that he will run in this event for the Agerges.
NEW DASH MEN WITH AGGIES
Holyroyd and Turner will probably
run the quarter again this year for the Manhattan school. Neither man placed in the meet with K. U. last year. Wyman seems to be the best high jumper back this year, while the pole vault will probably be handled by Turner, who was the best vautter on the team last season. The dash events and the weights will probably be taken care of by new men.
Small did some great heaving with the shot yesterday and Vernon was hurling the weight about the same distance. Ziegler did good work in the pole vault as well as in the shot. Rice is getting back into shape and will probably get into the Aggie meet in the high jump. If Casey runs well, then his knee will be filled in the track team which has been worrying the coaches. Seward appears to be out of the running for the rest of the season.
STIFF WORKOUTS BEING HELD
Potsy Clark is working the men hard to get them into shape for the meet Monday night. He had the men work out on the upper track Saturday in spite of the fact that the floor below was being used by the girls' annual prom. Welsh has not been out for practice for several days on account of a badly sprained back which he received while skating last week.
It is quite likely that several men will be sent to the track meet of the Missouri Athletic Club at St. Louis, March 10. Many of the best track

BIG TIME FOR ALL AT COLONIAL PARTY
All University Pageant Will be One of the Features Included in Program
MEDICAL SCHOOL COMING
Students From Rosedale Will be Included in Annual Affair for First Time
It's for everybody, this third annual All-University Colonial party to be held in Robinson Gymnasium, February 24. Students and faculty are invited and no charge is made. For it is the All-University party. It is a student party given for the faculty.
Entirely new features will be introduced this year in this annual party. A pageant depicting early colonial history and pre-colonial times will be the program of the first part of the evening with dancing starting at nine-thirty, then two hours from seven-forty-five until eight-thirty a reception will be held, after which the pageant will have the stage.
125 STUDENTS IN PAGEANT
The pageant will consist of three parts and the grand finale. The first episode will show a day in an Indian camp. The second episode will show the Poonchuntas supported by colonists and Indians. George and Martha Washington are the characters of the third episode. Every character and the full K. U. Band will take part in the grand finale. All University students in costume will have part in this final scene.
Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, is the originator of the All-University parties, the first one of which was held three years ago. All school organizations and classes of the University have parts in the pageant. The Medical students Roseaud will be needed to take a role in the pageant this year. Two of these parties are held each year, the first one celebrating Halloween and the spring party coming as near Washington's birthday as possible.
COSTUMES FROM HAYS NORMAL Only through the generosity of the Fort Hays Normal School is the colonial feature of the party. For they love to be heard by the costumes. The project allowed by the state for this party is small and this borrowing of costumes is absolutely necessary.
The committees are working on the details of the party, but all the main plans have been worked out. These meetings will be announced for morrow.
REVEREND BROWN DECIDES
Will Leave Lawrence to Edit Eastern Religious Magazine
The Rev. O, C. Brown, pastor of the First Baptist Church, has decided definitely to leave Lawrence to take up the work of associate editor with the Baptist Publication Society of Philadelphia. According to a statement made made in the last of April and will take up his work there the first of May. W. E. Raffety, editor-in-chief of the Baptist Publications, has made two trips to Lawrence to see Mr. Brown about taking up the work, and in his last visit to Lawrence January down consented to take up the work.
The work of the society is being reorganized as so best to meet the needs of both the country and the city schools. Mr. Brown will aid in this reorganization. The Baptist publications reach over two million people in the United States and Canada.
Nothing definite has been done as yet in regard to securing a man to take charge of the work in Lawrence, but it is probable that steps will be taken at once to secure a successor to Mr. Brown.

GEOLOGIST TELLS OF
OPPORTUNITIES IN BRAZIL
"Brazil holds many great opportunities for young men of tact and enterprise," said Prof. Winthrop P Haynes, yesterday in an address before the Geology club. "Pleasant opportunities also allow only promoters to bring into action the great possibilities of that country. With abundant waterpower the field of manufacturing is open to great developments. Common every day necessities of civilization are imported at much higher prices. United States products could compete with other foreign goods in the Brazilian markets."
Professor Haynes, several years ago was a member of an expedition for making a geological survey of Brazil, and on that trip gathered the material from which he gave his lecture yesterday.
VAN NOPPEN LECTURES FOR HOLLAND'S QUEEN
s Popularizing Vondel, the Dutch "Shakespeare," in This Country
The Queen Wilhelmina official lecturer of Dutch language and literature at Columbia University, Prof. Leonard C. Van Noppen will speak in Fraser Hall tomorrow afternoon on the Dutch Renaissance. Professor Van Noppen was appointed by the Dutch government as lecturer in 1913, and since then has been devoting his time to encouraging the interest of Dutch students in Dutch literature, art and institutions and their relation to American life.
Professor Van Noppen is of Dutch extraction. He left Holland with his parents, when he was only six years old. Later he completed his education at one of the New England colleges. He has travelled much in Holland, so is thoroughly acquainted with his subject.
In his lecture, special attention will be devoted to Vondel, Holland's greatest poet, often called the Dutch Shakespere, who was a contemporary of Milton. In fact it was from Vondels drama, "Lucifer," that Milton received his inspiration for "Paradise Lost."
Professor Van Noppe is himself a poet of great merit. His sonnets and lyrics and noteworthy, and he is now writing, a drama "Sampson" which displays great imagination and a keen analysis of human emotions.
Professor Van Noppen is brought here under the auspices of the German department and will be accompanied by his wife. They will be the guests of Professor Appelhoeuf. Five students from University of Notre Dame University by Professor Van Noppen during the past week, while last week he gave three in Notre Dame University and five in Chicago University. As a result of his lectures in Notre Dame University, he has been included in the curriculum. Professor Van Noppen goes to Leland Stanford University from here, where he will lecture Monday.

NO NEED FOR ALARM IN SMALL-POX CASE
University Health Officers Have Taken Precautionary Measures Against Epidemic
VACCINATIONS ARE FREE
Send Whole Classes Who Have Been Exposed to Hospital for Treatment
"There is no need for alarm in regard to the present smallpox scare," said one of the University health officers today. "The only existing case discovered Monday, is a light one and every precautionary measure possible has been taken to prevent the spread of the disease. The first patient lived has been thoroughly fumigated and vaccinations have been given to all men who were near Knoles after he first showed symptoms.
Knoles' condition is practically the same as it was yesterday. He is isolated on the third floor of the hospital where no one is allowed to enter. No fear need be displayed by students. There will be no epidemic. John C. Rudolph, county health officer, although powerless to do anything claims the University authorities are unfair to him in their treatment of the case. The doctor has a small pocket patient in the general hospital used by students who have sore throat and other common prevalent diseases.
During a class in physiology yesterday afternoon a paper was handed in by a student who roamed with Knoles. The paper was refused when the teacher's investigation showed that few in the class had been vaccinated for smallpox. Doctor Hyde dismissed the class and sent the members to the hospital to be vaccinated. No papers were distributed from other members of the class.
The measles case is isolated at the University Isolation hospital. Francis Furah, c20, of Mead, Kansas, was hospitalized with the measles. The origin of this case is unknown but it is probable that the disease was contracted while Furah was at home back in Hickory at 1201 Orend has been fumigated.
REVISE FOOD STANDARDS
Dean Sayre Proposes New Tests for Spices—Work Done in University Laboratory
The Standards Committee of the Board of Health will hold a meeting next Monday in the Capitol building at Topeka, prior to the meeting of the Board of Education. The School of Pharmacy, and E. H. S. Bailey, professor of chemistry, are members of the committee. They were called to Topeka last week to attend a meeting of standards from the United States Bureau of Committees from Washington.
Dean Sayre will present to the Committee of Standards his proposed revision for standards of spices. The proposed revisions on spices will consist mainly of a prescribed limit of ingredients and such changes as are necessary in order to make spices conform to the standards adopted by the latest revision of the United States Pharmacopoeia. These proposed revisions are based upon experimental work in the Drug Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Center, where he meets immediately after the meeting of the Standards Committee.
The annual spring party of the Y. M. and Y. W., which will take place Saturday night in the Gymnasium immediately after the game, will be one of the big opportunities of the school year for students to get together. Its scope will be broad enough to include those who are members of organizations and those who are not—those who go out three hours a day and those who have been grinding steadily for five months.
The stunts promise to be novel; one of the most clever has to do with a new interpretation of old songs. The committee on nourishment promises that the nominal charges do not do justice to the nature of the menu.

ENGINEERING COMPANY
AWAITS U. S APPROVAI
New Organization for K. U Must be Approved by State and War Departments
STUDENTS DISCUSS PLAN
Mass Meeting of Engineers in Marvin Hall Today—Ask Enlistments Later
Arrangements for the establishment of an engineering company at the University of Kansas as a part of the Kansas National Guard are being made by Captain F. E. Jones of the Kansas National Guard worked out for the reorganization of Company M into an engineering company and the permission of the War department at Washington asked for the change. Captain Jones presented the question to Adjuntant-General C. I. Martin in the Kansas City office, where he will turn will take it up with the state and war departments.
- The need of the engineering company in Kansas as a part of the national guards is expected to influence the question. Answer the question. The chance of experienced engineers and teachers of engineering as officers of the company will also have an important establishment of the company at K. U.
This company will be the first engineering organization of a similar nature in Kansas. It will be a part of the national guards and will doubtless work with engineering companies of the seaguar army at Fort Lester Avenue, Fort Riley. The permission of the War Department is expected within a few days and the final decision will rest with the state department. A meeting of the students of the Engineering school is being held in Marvin Hall this afternoon to discuss the proposal for the company. The whole proposition will be presented to the students at this time but no enlistments will be sought. Only those members of Company M in school now will be transferred to the new company while the members in other cities or states may be sent from the reserve, depending upon later instructions from the state officials.
The equipment of the engineering company will be far different than the equipment of National Guard infantry. Pack mules and wagons will be a necessary part of the equipment. Several cavalry horses will also be needed as eighteen men of the company will be mounted.
W.A.A. HOLD MASS MEETING
Record Breaking Crowd Expected at the Gymnasium at 7:15 Tonight

PROFESSOR DUNLAP TALKS
TODAY IN FRASER CHAPEL
Charles G. Dunlap, head of the department of English Language and Literature, lectures this afternoon at four-thirty o'clock on "Shakespeare's Last Message to the World." The lecture deals with "The Tempest," Shakespeare's last message to the world.
Mr. Dunlask received his A. B. and A. M. at Ohio Wesleyan University and his Litt. D. at Princeton in 1892. He has also studied at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Berlin. Mr. Dunlap has taught English literature and Shakespeare at the University since 1877, but he is head of the department of English since 1890. He is editor of "Henry VIII" in the Tudor Shakespeare Series and a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
WOMEN'S CONVOCATION TOMORROW AT 10:10
Mrs. Eustace Brown Will Talk on Problems of Vital Importance to Women
All college class periods will be shortened tomorrow to give Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, an opportunity to answer the question, "What kind of a question is at 10:10." The subject on which Mrs. Brown is going to speak is not a question but rather solutions to the problems which confront the women in college. The students will be dealt with in a straightforward and confidential manner.
Mrs. Brown feels that by having the opportunity to talk to the women of the University in her official capacity at least once a semester the efficiency of her position will be increased and accordingly will become more valuable to the women of the University.
"This convocation is important, as it will establish a precedent for women's convocations," said Mrs. Brown this morning. "The first convocation this is the first convocation hour we have had devoted exclusively to women and we hope to make good use of it by discussing topics such as are of vital importance to women."
Invitations have been issued to all sororities and girls' organizations urging them to attend the women's convocation. Mona Clare Hoffman, president of the W. S. G. A., will make a brief speech concerning the attitude of the student government association towards women's activities
LIFE'S DARKEST MOMENT FOR THE NLOPHYTES "Hell Week" For the Frats.
If, in the course of human events, you chance to see several big, fat, fierce-looking goats gamboling over the campus or down the streets, don't lose your head and think the University has added sheep-raising to the curriculum. Or if you see some bright blue cars, don't let them with his head on the car tracks holding back the cars, don't think he is trying to commit suicide. It is merely a freshman holding the fort until an august body of upper-classmen have time to finish their breakfasts and board the car. As for the goats. They belong to the universities and colleges training themselves for the awful butting they have in store for the unfortunate neophytes.
For this is "Hell Week," for the frats and George Fitch in his palmest days never conceived of all the wild modes of torture devised for freshmen. Even the versatile Petey Simmons was never subject to all the ki-yi's the K. U. Greek yearlings undergo.
One organization has ruled that whomsoever of the freshmen shall hear a whistle, he also shall climb a tree and stay there until another whistle hits his release. One 200-point pledge has been eating his desert sitting in the middle of the pavement.
Another pastime is the sending of timid boys out to the ghost haunted grave-yard to find a certain shaft or to count the monuments, at the stroke of midnight. A little less cruel is the story of a girl who leaves the river to get a sample of ice to ascertain whether or not it is thick enough to skate on.
Economy is the watchword throughout. Freshmen wait tables, clean house, wash windows. Some who do not have a job are required to and habitual users are forbidden the week. Every upperclassman is mistered and sired, petted and fitted upon with a courtesey and compulsory suit puts the proverbial 'Awkins to shame.'

Recommends $1,588,710 for Maintenance of Five State Schools
FINE ARTS PLEA IGNORED
Board Asks 16 Per Cent Appropriation Increase—Gets $2\frac{1}{2}$ Per Cent
BULLETIN: The Ways and Means Committee of the Senate voted at noon today to recommend an additional $75,000 to the building fund of the University. This is to be added to the $150,000 already recommended by the Administration Building. The new allowance calls for a larger addition to this building and will house the School of Fine Arts for the present.
The senate ways and means committee announced their recommendations for appropriations for the five schools, a total night. $18,588,710 was the amount given for the maintenance of the five schools, an increase of $46,300 annually over that which has been applied to these schools for the last two years.
The building allowances are $150-
000 for K. U. $200,000 for the Pittsburg Normal, and $50,000 for the Agricultural College. This is $95,000 less than the last legislature allowed.
ASK FOR FINE ARTS BUILDING
Strong pressure has been exerted within the last few days to increase the appropriations, not only for maintenance, but also for $100,000 to build a fine arts building for the University. The board of educational boards has insisted that this building is badly needed. In his repart to the board, Chancey or Praek Strong showed the need of twelve new buildings, due to the fact that for seven years not a single new building has been erected on Mount Oread.
APPROVE SMALL INCREASE
The board of administration asks for a more effective treatment of the state schools. They believe the increase in enrollment of 24 per cent while the plan of the the ways and means committee provides no new teachers. An increase of six per cent was recommended to cover an increased war cost of supplies and equipment. The board asked a total of 1,500 employees and the committee plans to give an increase of only 2½ per cent. The legislature of 1915 gave an increase of 12.4 per cent for maintenance, repairs, salaries and wages.
Detailed agreed appropriations for
Detailed agreed appropriations for each year follow:
University of Kansas—
Salaries and wages ... $475,000
Supplies and equipment ... 154,000
Training ... 38,000

Total ... $664,500
GREEKS REVEL AT SMOKER
Six Fraternities Entertain Crowd With Music, Burlesque and Comedy
Three hundred fifty Greeks attended the annual Pan-Hellenic smoker last night in Fraternal Aid Hall. Six fraternities for three hours furnished K, U. Greeks with original comedy sketches, impersonations of certain campus celebrities, and paroxysm at the Hammstein brand of opera.
Beta Theta Pi opened the evening's bill with the "World Famous Three In One," including impersonations of prominent American actors, an up to date Hula orchestra, and concluding their stunts with a realistic scene of a furious session of campus notables, engaged in "litigation."
Phi Gamma Delta followed with a take-off on the K. U. Pan-Hellenic Council, enlivened by some original sayings with variations. Sigma Al-Faiz College, in Riyadh stall and company in a versatile exhibition of the piano playing.
Following time taken out for intermission and lunch. Acacia gave "Pan Hell In Hell". Kappa Sigma in a "Kappa Sigma Romance" showed in a new way some of the fruits of the romance, but not included the varied program in giving "Twenty Minutes In Center Crick", a rural tragedy.

As a rest for the mind overtaxed with the humdum of musical comedies, recitals, and operas, the advent of Stuart Walker and his Portmanteau Theater will be welcomed. He brings with him a production of recognized merit, produced by the best craftsmanship, and above all—new. Leading critics have given their approval and the performances Monday should not be overlooked by those persons interested in dramatic art.
MORE LIFE!
Lack of affiliation of class officers with school activities is a big fault of the student system at K. U. Each fall sees a period of about three weeks in which affable office-seekers make their presence known on every occasion and seem interested in every student enterprise on the Hill.
This certainly is not the right attitude for class officials to take. They are chosen as the leaders of the class and should make every effort to further the interest of their class. There are many worthwhile movements on the Hill that any energetic class should be glad to promote. An example of the failure of class organization is the student campaign for the Armenian Relief Fund. The work of solicitation was turned over to the classes and they failed absolutely.
But after election it is different. Apparently the only work connected with being a class officer is that of being elected, and by the end of the first semester not more than half of the students can name the class presidents and not more than one in ten can name all of the officers in the four classes.
The inactivity of class officer seems to be a hopeless case, but occasionally one musters up sufficient optimism to hope that some day class officers will do more than pose for their Jayhawker pictures and stand in the receiving line of their class party
INEXCUSABLE
It is fortunate, out here in Kansas,
that the flower of music grows on a
hardy plant. Otherwise, the blossom
would become pale and faded, and
would die from sheer lack of nourishment.
Crowded into a residential dwelling designed originally to accommodate a family of nine, the School of Fine Arts of the University of Kansas is in a deplorable condition—a condition that is so incongruous, so inappropriate, as to be positively ridiculous. Two grand pianos occupy the kitchen of the house. Two pianos—an upright and a grand—are crowded into each tiny bedroom. Classes of from twelve to twenty students are forced to meet in dens and parloors with scarce room enough for ten peo-
que. And the head of the violin department has his office—his "studio"—in an attic! The thing so nearly approaches the fiction one reads about starving musicians hidden away in a garret that is almost unbelievable.
And while a class in one small room works religiously away on harmony exercises, playing cadences, and modulating from one key to another, violins in another room mourn out plaintively the melodies of Kreisler or Cezar Franc. In the next room—separated only by a thin, easily penetrated wall—pianos bang away at Beethoven, and Mozart, and Bach. And above all rise voices—sopranos, altos, tenors, basses—attacking the glorious notes of Shubert, or of Schumann.
Laughable?
Lamentable! And the more so because a few thousand dollars, donated by a state that is among the richest, could make a wonderful change.
Will the legislature allow this condition to become permanent?
As a measure of "Safety First" in our university, it might be advisable to move one or the other of the English or German departments to the south' end of Fraser. This would leave the chapel, a place of inviolible neutrality, between the two.

O dear, O dear, I feel so queer.
My ears ring so I cannot hear;
But yet I feel all kinds of noise
Which dampens all my earthly joys.
ODE TQ LaGRIPPE
If there be one who does not know
What tis 't to ache and suffer so,

And knows not what he well may fear

He cannot coach his friend and
To all his wallings say "Amen."

Will turn his back and curl his lip.
And strut, and pose, and scorn you
And boast, "He never would complain."
But he'll whine like a brindle pup,
And moan and wheeze, "The gig is
With eyes rolled like a dying calf-

Go get the gripe that you may lend,

You'll roll your sleeves and even fight The one who dares look with disdain On your good friend racked with the

RESOLUTIONS
This is the time of good resolutions. Very nearly every college publication has some sort of an editorial on taking a new start or "buckling down to work." It is right that this should be so, for we are all more or less capable of applying ourselves to our studies during the opening semesters.
The poor student has the threatening C's still staring him in the face on his returned blue book, the more efficient scholar is having excited dreams of Phi Beta Kappa, the mediocre student is at once fearing he will not "make good" and hoping he may "make" the key-wearing circle.
However, this is merely a perennial wave of enthusiasm. Every one was just as determined to do better work at the mid-year semester of last year, but they forgot their good resolutions, and the temptations of blossoming out-of-doors coupled with the languor of students in the number of B- students to "flunk out" and the usual number of A students to get B*.
You feel an eagerness to "make good." This is just the usual epidemic of good resolutions. You will have to have more than "feeling," you will have to outgrow it, you will have to plot out your time and systematize your work so that you will have gotten THE HABIT of working efficiently by the time you become the computer is covered to the navy in Spring fever—Knox Student.

MERE COLLEGE GUYS INVADE LAW SCHOOL
Young Attorneys Bewail the Crowded Condition of Their Sacred Halls
"The biggest nuisance we have in the law school," said a certain senior in the School of Law today, "is the invasion of our building by studies from other schools to understand. And, what's more, books are missing, and suspicion points strongly toward the invaders. Lawyers may be classed as crooks, but ourselves we are simply strictest.
"They come over in droves—girls and all—and fill our class rooms," the senior continued. "Our sacred halls are desecrated and our gate-ways choked with feminities and plebeians from the College.
Lamenting the fact that the shortage of class rooms make it necessary for teachers to attend College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, to be held in Green Hall, the law students are hoping and praying that the legislature will do something to relieve
"This is an epoch of standing up for our rights," and with a flourish of the hand the young attorney waxed eloquent. "America is willing to go to any length to preserve the freedom of the seas. We are willing to fight, if need be, for the freedom of Green Hall. Take ecoemployees may come here can be no peace when college classes trump through and occupy our best classrooms, and even swarm into the professors' offices.

With their institutions, Springfield Republican, The New York Times, The Independent, The Outlook, The Literary Digest, Current Opinion, and The Theatre. There is a picture of Stuart Walker in a full page in the January Theatre.
Among the crowd of sensation-mangers and dilettante artists, Stuart Walker is ranked head and shoulders above most of the New York actor-managers. He is a dramatist of distinction and one of the leading influences today on the American theatre. The plays he gives range from the
broadest and most rollingick comedy, such as "Gammer Gurton's Needle," often present by Eastern men's colleges, through the delicate symbolism of this title, to one of the masterpieces of Lord Dunsany. Dunsany is an Irishman now serving on the Somme front, and already is known to critics of the drama as second only to Bernard among living English dramatists.
Francis Stevens, son of Prof. W. C. Stevens, was for two years a member of Stuart Walker's company in New York, until Mr. Stevens withdrew to give more of his time to writing.

Jayhawkers Finish Week
Hard Practice for Last
Home Games
"Beat Nebraska" is now the battle cry of three thousand five hundred enthusiastic Jayhawker fans who have high hopes that the rejuvenated Jayhawker quintet will add two more victories to its won list when it clashes with Oklahoma State in a game series tomorrow night in Robinson gymnasium.
The games promise to be the fastest and hardest-fought of any played here this season. The Jayhawker goal-tossers must win both of the clashes to stay in running order for the Missouri Valley Conference championship, and this fact alone is sufficient indication that the Crimson and Blue goal-caters are going to put up the hardest fight of the season.
FAST PRACTICE LAST NIGHT
The Jayhawker squad held its next to last practice in the Robinson gymnasium with the Huskers tomorrow night, and it was one of the fastest practices that has been seen this season. Every player on the squad was going at his best and showed a hundred per cent improvement over the playing in games with Washington University.
The first thirty minutes of the practice were given over to goal-shooting from places and distances on the court. Then a fast thirty-minute floor workout was staged with special emphasis on passing and catching the ball to top-speed. The practice closed with a fifteen-minute signal practice drill.
LAST WORKOUT TONIGHT
LAST WORKOUT TONIGHT
After the JAYHURST tonight the Jaheyn goal-taskers should be playing their best brand of basketball.
The feature of the practice last night was the eagerness of the players to enter the game in form for the clash with the Huskers.
Potsy Clark said he believes the Jayhawker quintet is going to put up one of the hardest-fought games of the season and that he is satisfied the game will be from the time the whistle opens the game until the pistol-shot closes it.
BIG GAME EXPLORED
The two game with the Huskers, toorrow tomorrow, Sunday night are the last games that will be played on the home court this season and Coach Hamilton said that he expects every seat in the Robinson gymnasium to be sold for both games before the clash tomorrow night.

SPORT BEAMS
Nebraska will invade the Jaya-
hawker camp in Robinson Gymnasium
tomorrow night to get revenge for a
defeat he has won from the football
field. Despite intense pressure, there
will be something doing from
start to finish of the clash.
The Jayhawker squad held one of its fastest practices of the season last night, and is rounding into best possible form.
Lytle, the rangy Kansas center was back in his old form, and heaved the baskets from all distances.
Gibbens was also right and displayed an amazing amount of speed on the floor, with an equal ability to connect with the baskets.
Coach Venne's Haskell goal-tossers easily won from the Kansas City University five last night by the score of 51 to 15. The game was
much faster and more exciting than the score would indicate. Bennie Murdock was the greatest point-getter for Haskell, cagging twelve field baskets. The speed and floorwork of the Haskell Indians was the feature game. Captain Vandke right forward, played the best for the K. C. U. five.
Captain Fat Nelson played a good game, and showed a great improvement in his floorwork and speed.
All the players are going at their best and they should sweep the Nebraska far off its feet with such teamwork and fast playing.
W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics, was in Kansas City yesterday making final arrangements for the game. He will be held in Convention Hall, March 16.
Coach Hamilton will probably enter five or six men in the Missouri Athletic club meet at St. Louis, March 10. A quarter miler, pole vaulter, half-miler, miler, and a high jumper will likely be the men to take the trip.
The hockey coach at McGill claims that, although the team did fine work, and he does not wish to detract from their glory, nevertheless he attributes their success to the fact that he nearly won the championship on the bench in uniform. In all the games that McGill won, thirteen men were out, and the two they lost in Pittsburgh, only twelve were out. With the big victory in Pittsburgh the coach stated that he was going to be certain to have thirteen men in uniform once more.

Men in the distance events were selected for the Kansas-Aggie meet in the try-outs yesterday afternoon in the gymnasium. The quarter mile race was held in Welsh winning by a narrow margin, O'Leary, Shreve, a new man, and Rinker finished almost at the same time. Welsh, and O'Leary and possibly Rinker will start this event in the match here Monday night with the Aggies.
Spruill easily won from Howland in the mile. The time was fast for an indoor try-out, as was the quarter. Howland and possibly Rinker Spruill the mile in the two miles. Spruill in the mile in the two miles. Stateler made fine time with Groene finishing almost a lap behind him. Murphy and Rodkey will run the half for K.

ARE AGGIES WEAK?
The relay in the Aggle meet still remains unknown quantity. The most likely one-up now appears to be O'Leary, Hardy, Welsh and Sproul or Rinker, with Murphy of Murphy being used instead of two women. The greater part of the Mac hattan team seems to be a mystery and its strength will first be shown in the meet Monday night. Indications seem to point to a weaker team than the one they had last season.

AGGIES ROMP-OVER NEBRASKA
AND LAND IN SECOND PLACE
The Aggies jumped back into second place in the Missouri Valley Conference championship race by smothering the Nebraska quintet under a pair of Nichols gymnastium at Manhattan. Another game is scheduled for tonight.
Nebraska will play the Jayhawker quintet tomorrow night and Saturday night. Kansas must win both games from the Huskers and Missouri and the Agies must lose one game if Kansas wins the valley championship. The Jayhawker quintet showed a hunter's best improvement in the practice last season, and the Hawker fans believe that they will win the rest of the games on their schedule if they show the same old eight.

"Behind the Scenes"
NO.2
This being the second of a series of talks about the coming Dramatic Club production, "UNDER COVER"
"UNDER COVER"
—the cast
Here they are. After a competitive try-out in which seventy-five people of dramatic merit participated. Choosing was hard—it seemed that the dramatic talent was exceptionally good this year. Finally, however, the following were selected. It is an ALL-STAR cast. Every member has played in at least one, and several in as many three, K. U. productions:
OTTO DITTEM will have a very difficult part in "Under Cover." However, his showing in "The Man from Home" and "The Witching Hours" leaves no doubt as to his ability to handle the part.
ADA DYKES will play the leading role. She is talented and experienced, having taken the leading part in "The Witching Hour" last year. FRANK McFARLAND will play the leading male part, opposite Miss Jerry in "The Witching Hour," playing an important part in "The Man from Home" two years ago.
ALTON GUMBINER, the author of "Copping the Grape," last year’s
three Dramatic Club performance. It will be his
CECILE BURPON is a very talented actress and is an assistant to the famous dramatic Art department. She has an important part in "In Under Cover."
ROBERT ROBERTSON has played in several 1-act plays produced by the Dramatic Art Department, and it was in these that he displayed Dramatic Club ability. While "Under Cover" will be his first Dramatic Club appearance, great things are expected of him.
DORA LOCKETT, winner of the Jayhawker Contest last year, has earned a corner of part and is sure to delight the audience with her presentation.
MABEL ELMORE has taken part in several class fares and each time her acting has stood out as unusual. Though her part in "Under the Sea" was a bit more formal, she has been an enthusiast.
DICK TREWEEK—always known as a good trainee, lately discovered to be a real actor as well.
WALTER HAVEKORST made a big hit in "The Witching Hour" last year, although he had but a small part. He will have an opportunity in "Under Cover" to display the dramatic talent which he possesses.
LEWIS HULL, with several 1-act successes to his credit, will make his first Dramatic Club appearance.

HUSKERS CLASH WITH JAYHAWKERS TONIGHT
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 16, 1917
Nebraska Goal-Tossers Are Expected to Show Kansas a Worthy Fight
ARE LAST GAMES AT HOME
Four More Games on Foreign Courts Will End Season for K. U.
Tonight at 7:15 the Crimson and Blue goal-tossers will clash with the fast Nebraska five in the first of a three game series, be the last home games of the season.
It is certain that both the Jayhawkers and Huskers will fight their hardest to win both the games. Kansas is after revenge for the defeats of the Broncos in Game 7, but the brasks is after revenge for a defeat bold over from the football season.
K. U. SHOW UP IN PRACTICE
Fast floor-work and goal-shooting took up the first part of the practice and signal running occupied the latter part. The floor-work was exceptionally fast and Scrubby Laslett exceeded his speed in this practice worked with clock-like precision and was the best that has been seen of the quintet this season. The goal-shooting ability of the players was also much better than usual. If used to keep the ball out of team-work in the game tonight it will sweep the Huskers on their feet.
The Jayhawker squad held its final practice last night in preparation for the clash tonight. Every member of the team has practiced and was full of vim and go.
BAND WILL BE THERE
To instill the oldtime Jayhawker fight into the players, J. C. McCanies, instructor of the band, will have the famous K. U. band out in full force to play the Jayhawker favorites. The cheerleaders will also be there to lead the fans in some old-fashioned Rock Chalks.
The lineup will not be announced until a few minutes before the whistle starts the game. The probable guess lineup for Kansas is: Ernest Uhr, Jake Sutherland, Rahm, forward; Lyle, center; and Captain Nelson and Laslett, guards.
GAME STARTS AT 7:15
The games start at 7:15 and will be over by 8:30. The seats are arranged in amphitheater style so that you can see an unobstructed view of the game.
The Jayhawker season closes next week with four games on foreign courts, two against the Tigers at Columbia, Wednesday and Thursday at Washington University in St. Louis the Washington University five at St. Louis, Friday and Saturday nights.
Admission to "Under Cover"
Same as in Former Years,
Says Manager
PLAY PRICES UNCHANGED
The prices of this year's play "Under Cover," will remain the same as Dramatic Club productions of previous years, according to Frank McFarland, manager of the play, this morning.
"The management is acting on the theory that a student enterprise should not be conducted for profit, but rather should aim to give students all that can be given with the least possible charge," Cockland said. The club is incurring expensive expenses in constructing special security and lighting effects.
The construction of these properties are expected to cause a defect. However, they will be an asset to the company if they succeed and will show profit in the long run.
"Under Cover" is a royalty play which had a long run. Now the team is ready to spark an effort to make the presentation of this play in Lawrence the great success.
HEKKING WILL LECTURE
SUNDAY AT ART EXHIBIT
The art collection which has been on exhibit during the past two weeks on the third floor of the Administration Building will be removed Sunday. The collection consists of thirty-one paintings by American artists, and is one of the best exhibits ever displayed at the University.
Professor Hekking will give a short address on "Modern Tendencies in Painting in America," the last day the exhibit is open to the public. This is to be given at 3:30 Sunday afternoon.
Eliazbeth Carnie, c'19, will spend Saturday and Sunday at her home in Kansas City, Mo.
Nell Blurton, c'18, spent part of the week at her home in Bucklin. She returned to school Wednesday.
TELLS LARGE AUDIENCE OF SHAKEPEARE'S LAST PLA
"Repentance as a means of restoration was Shakespeare's creed through life and the theme of his last play," said Prof. C. G. Dunlap, of the department of English, in a lecture on "Shakespeare's Last Message to the World," in Fraser Hall yesterday afternoon.
"Shakespeare was not for an age but for all time," declared Professor Dunlap, "and his creative power was the best of all. This last play "The Tempest." While the leading character is not really Shakespeare himself, as many people have thought, the words and message of the author were incomparable to this play as a find means of amumining up the many thoughts he wished to leave the world."
MUNICIPALITIES LEAGUE PROVES EFFECTIVENESS
Secures Approval of Commission-Manager Bill in House Yesterday
The efficiency of the League of Kansas Municipalities was demonstrated yesterday when the Commission-Manager Bill, allowing cities to adopt the manager plan of government was reported favorably by the House of Representatives as a Committee of the Whole.
"The fact that the legislature has practically passed the legislation re commended by the League of Mu nipalicities, shows that the Leagu e recently introduced bill to boll to the League," said Homer Talbo secretary of the League, this morning. "The general feeling is the bill is introduced to abolish th league was filled with epistow work an will not get very far."
"The Commission-Manager bill has been one of the most important measures before the legislature. It is also the legal challenge to another step in efficient administration in the interests of the citizens of a Government League, Rotary Clubs and all civic organizations, but like such moves, it had some opposition."
Prof. C. A. Dykstra, of the department of history and Mr. Talbot, secretary of the reference bureau office, appeared before the committee in the interest of the bill. In the House the bill was championed by Clarence R Sowers, an old K. U. man. Richard P. R. Sowers, a vice commissioner of the League, formerly a K. U. student, was on of the most active supporters of the bill.
"The bill has had several amendments added in the House, and of course it will have to go through the senate again, but we are practically not going to allow them within the week," said Mr. Talbot. Governor Capper is one of its strongest supporters. The law will be merely an optional one, allowing cities to adopt the Commission-Manger plan of government if they deem necessary. We want to keep them from retaining their present forms. In my estimation it is one of the most important laws before the legislature in years.
"FROZEN MUSIC" HEARD IN FRASER CHAPEL Old Spirit of Music Blamed
Yesterday morning the pipe-organ in Fraser Chapel began giving forth strange melodies, chords, and strains of music which distracted and mystified me. I had not been able to study. Some said that spirits in the organ, growing restless, were creating the disturbance. Others hinted at "frozen music" being made audible by the moderating temperature. Still others claimed that it was used for playing instruments from the open window was blowing through the pipes of the organ.
The University Orchestra will present its mid-minster concert in Fraser Chapel March first. The program will consist of several selections by the orchestra, and in addition, a vocal duct, a piano solo, and a violin solo. And as a concert violinist is always a favorite with university audiences. She will play as a solo, Tachikowsky's Hungarian Rhapsodie.
The cause was finally traced by one of the Fine Arts girls who said she had forgot to shut off the power when she was through playing.
Prof. L. E. Whittmore of the department of physics will speak at the Topeka high school auditorium tonight on "Wireless Telegram." The lecture is one of a series being given by Mr. Whittmore will take his wireless apparatus with him to illustrate his lecture.

COMPANY M TRANSFER PRACTICALLY ASSURED
Dean Walker Explains Status of New Engineering Organization in Mass Meeting
NAMES THREE OFFICERS
Professors Williams, Roberts and Grider Would be Lieutenants—Anxious to Join
It is now practically certain that Company M will be transferred to the engineering branch of the national guard and be recruited at least to minimum strength. Plans for transferring the company and organizing a company of engineers were completed in April and Dean Walker to a mass meeting of engineering students in the lecture room at Marvin Hall.
Dean Walker, in presenting the proposition to the engineers, said that it is now absolutely certain that members of the faculty in the School of Engineering will need to act as a consultant to the company. H. A. C. Williams, professor of railway engineering, H. A. Roberts, assistant professor of civil engineering, and R. L. Grider, of the department of mining engineering, as those who problematize the challenges of the new company. If for any reason of any of these find it impossible to give their time and services, there are others willing to take their places.
In a vote taken to determine the number who desired to enter the company, between forty and fifty men held up their hands as willing to join. This number, together with the twenty-two men now in Company M, would make the required sixty-five men that must enlist in order to get the new company. According to Capone, the engineers were present, and it is likely that there are many more who will join the company.
Captain Jones said he had written the War Department over four years ago in regard to establishing such a company, but had received word that the Kansas law regarding the national guard made no provision for hiring a member of the force Act, passed last June, however, provides for an engineering company for the state, and K. U. is perhaps the only place in the state, aside from Manhattan, where such a company could be organized. This is due to the fact that all of the four commissioning engineers, graduates of an engineering school, or members of a national engineering society.
SIXTY-FIVE MINIMUM
"SIXY have written me, War Dept. must give permission to make the transfer," said Captain Jones, "and while no order for the transfer has been sent out, we have been unofficially authorized to take the step."
Kendall M. Haas, c'20, spent Saturday and Sunday at his home in Holton. Friday he visited in Topeka.
The minimum strength of a company of national guards at present is sixty-five men, of which there must be fifteen privates, nineteen privatees of the first class, one horse-shor-er, two lieutenants, two musicians, two cooks, twelve corporals, and thirteen sergeants. The company at the beginning of the next year must have a minimum strength of eighty-six men, the increase-being made by the addition of twenty-one privatees, and by the beginning of the second year the number of privatees must be increased enough to make the number of personnel total 109. All of the commissioned officers, first sergeant and three other sergeants, and eighteen privatees will be mounted.
JOURNALISM PROFFS HOLD
ANNUAL MEETING IN APRIL
Burt Cochran, c'20, who returned to his home in Wichita last week on account of illness, is expected to be back on the Hill soon.
The seventh annual meeting of the American Association of Journalism Teachers will be held in Chicago April 5th, 6th and 7th. Professor Carolle Benton teaches at the University of Kansas. The sixth annual meet of the association was held at the University of Kansas last spring. Prof. Merle Thorpe of K. U. was president of the association for the year 1915-16. Officers at the university included Officer Melvin Lee, New York University; vice-president, Will H. Mayes, University of Texas; Secretary-treasurer, Carl H. Getz, Ohio State University.
Journalism is practically a new subject in American universities, but despite this fact 172 men and women are teaching the subject. Universities having well developed schools of journalism are Columbia, New York University, Kansas, Missouri, Wisconsin and Oregon.
Senate Committee Favors Completion of Administration Building
WOULD GIVE $225,000 FOR K. U. BUILDING
FINE ARTS IN WEST WING
Senate Also Would Give State Schools Permanent Income
The recommendation of an additional $75,000 to the building fund of the University by the Ways and Means Committee of the Senate yesterday is expected to provide a comfortable home for the School of Fine Arts. The life of this school was seriously threatened by lack of approportionate funding on the nature on the committee's recommendation will be watched with interest.
The $75,000 will be added to the appropriation of $150,000 already recommended by the committee and will afford the entire $225,000 needed for the completion of the Administration Building.
ROOM FOR THAYER COLLECTION
The School of Fine Arts will be housed in the west part of the new addition. This will give twenty-four class rooms for this school and will also give room for the $100,000 Thayer art collection. Mr. W. B. Trayer of Kansas City will lead this collection to the University for four years, provided it is properly housed.
With this new addition of $75,000 proper care of the collection is assured.
The University of Missouri and the University of Nebraska have been trying to get the Thayer art collection but Mrs. Thayer preferred to offer the collection to K. U. if a suitable building could be obtained.
Chancellor Frank Strong and Harold Butler, dean of the School of Fine Arts, returned last night from Topeka. They said the opposition to the two-building program of the University was quite strong. Two members of the committee held out absolutely against two buildings. The Chair of Commence of Lawrence aided in the campaign for new buildings.
The senate committee on educational institutions proposed a constitutional amendment providing for a permanent state levy for state educational institutions. The Permanent Income Bill resolution has the united backing of the state education secretary. This is a big step toward the adoption of the Income Bill in the present session of the legislature.
"ARCH-I-TECKS" BANQUET
The Permanent Income Bill provides for a permanent financial system for the maintenance of state schools. In every state in which it has been tried it has been a great success. It is considered essential to the future growth of the state schools.
Big Feast Held by Engineers at Eldridge House Last Night
"The Mechanical Workings of an Architect" was the subject of Dean Walker's talk. Prof. G. C. Shaad talked on "The Spark in Architecture," and Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith gave his views on "A Arch-iteck." he published an alumnus, described "The Thrill That Comes Once in Lifetime."
The third annual banquet of the architectural engineers was held last night at the Eldridge House. Placecards in the form of miniature bungalows drawn by J. L. Marshall were features of the seat. Dean P. F. Pearl, head of design for C. Shanahan, elected honorary members of the Architectural Society.
J. L. Marshall, G. F. Street, and E. Pickering presented "Isn't It a Hellovanato?" M. W. Nigg and J. A. Ellison gave the prospects of the coming Engineers' Day and the track meet on the same day.
New officers were elected at the banquet. J. L. Marshall was elected president, H. S. Secretary-wife-president; G. F. Street, secretary; and M. W. Nigg, treasurer.
A new set of history books has arrived at Spooner Library on Spanish America. The work is complete, a national monument and each of the more important countries.
Miss Gladys Love, of the Kansas City Junior College, will spend the week-end with Miss Florence Klapmeyer, c'20, and Miss Katrina Baldwin, c'19, and attend the girls' basketball game.
Mildred Oliver, of Abilene, will visit friends at the University Saturday and Sunday.
"SMALPLOX SITUATION NEED
CAUSE NO FEAR"—SUNDWALL
Because of stringent quarantine measures taken by the University Health Service, the smallpox situation of this week is under control, and Dr. John Sundwall believes no danger may arise from his own or their parents. Thirty vaccinations have been given since noon Wednesday, and as a common-sense precautionary measure those who have not been vaccinated are urged to take the vaccine. The University health officials, given two months ago, and be vaccinated.
The isolation of James Knoles on the third floor of the University hospital is the safest means of handling the case, said Doctor Sundwall this morning. Knoles' condition is improving. His case is a light one.
No other cases have been reported.
TWO STUDENTS FAILED FOR DISHONEST WORK
Will be Required to Complete Additional Work for Graduation
Two students in the College, guilty of dishonest work in the final examination in Mathematics 3, Trigonometry, have been failed in the course and will be required, according to the action of the disciplinary committee of the University Senate yesterday, to pay a fine of $100.00 and in the case of the other three hours of additional work for graduation.
According to the opinion of the University Senate expressed two and one-half years ago the penalty for dishonesty in classroom work should be suspension from the University with a fine. This is much more in harmony with a report made on the subject by a special committee which had worked in full co-operation with representatives of the students' self-government organizations. The students at that time reported against the advisability of attempting to eschew the system in the University and advanced adequate disciplinary methods.
The recently elected and permanent disciplinary committee of the Senate was given full power to hear all cases brought before it and determine penalties. When necessary, advisory committees from the two student self-government organizations are to cooperate with it.
The disciplinary committee has in several cases of dishonesty work inflicted upon the offender the penalty of failure in the course and additional credits for graduation. The number of credits will be increased with the flagranty of the offense and in the course of time as the system becomes firmly established, with the ultimate goal of enforcing a more commensurate penalty for all dishonesty in University courses. In view of its recent organization and adoption of a permanent policy, believed that due warning should be given before the full and adequate penalties were applied. Hereafter all such charges of dishonesty will be brought before the committee.
FORGET GROUCHES AND
PITY POOR PAULINE
"Hello" girls have no snap.
The most uninteresting place it is. The University. Do you know where it is? Down in the basement of Fraser Hall, at the end of the long room placarded "weights and measures," is a closet-like room. It is the telephone exchange of the University.
Our popular conception of the life of a telephone operator is that of thrills, one right after another. We imagine the girl "listening in" on sweet conversations and chattering between calls with other girls in the office or an occasional friend who may stop in.
From eight in the morning until four in the afternoon the K. U. operator sits in this dingy room with its light from only one window and tries to say "K. U." and "number" in the same sweet voice that the people who use telephones have come to expect. As for "listening in," she is apt to reply that she would she heart—if she did—more thrilling than, "Professor Downing, will there be Glee Club practice this evening?"
Six days of the week, she must fill this lonely position and if anyone is dissatisfied with the monotony of getting lessons and attending classes, he may consider the University exerting some control over taking quizzes is as thrilling as the "Perils of Pauline" in comparison with her uninteresting duties.
Hazel Hypes, of Topeka, has enrolled in the College as a junior for the coming semester. Wash Hypes had been enrolled in Washburn.
URGES ACCEPTANCE OF SOCIAL CONVENTIONS
Mrs. Brown Says Laws of Society Should Determine Woman's Conduct
EXPLAINS AIM OF W. S. G. A.
Standards of Dress Would Overcome Criticism of Women's Costumes
"You can usually accept the conventions of society as being safe for womanhood," said Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, who spoke passionately about audience composed entirely of women, in Fraser Chapel this morning.
WHY HAVE a CHAPERON? Mrs. Brown's subject was "Why" because University women are always asking why: they even ask, "Why have a chaperon?" Mrs. Brown re-legits her own suit of suspicion but for the purpose of protection and the custom of having chaperones is a social usage with which women of the middle west should become more conversant.
"The Woman's" Student Government Association is not a police force," she said in part; "it is your organization, you do not understand why you should be more restrained here than at home you must realize that you have no rights of your own if they are detrimental to the group."
The wide criticism both from the pulpit and from prominent citizens of Lawrence of the girl's' costumes at the Junior Prom was the occasion of a suggestion by Mrs. Brown that the curator formulate some standards of dress.
It is Mrs. Brown's intention that this woman's convocation will establish a precedent so that in future University women may arrange to have celebrated speakers here in their meeting and that discussion of student problems may be fuller and more helpful.
FRASER CLOCK SNOOZES
Antique Timepiece of Chapel Rests Quietly While Motor is Repaired
The old white faced time-piece which has done service for many years in Fraser Hall chapel has been removed. It has been carried off to a dusty corner of the repair shop and left with its memory of many "beatles" from the mid-1950s. The collections of many speakers who soaked as it marked their closing time.
For several days the old clock has slumbered peacefully, unmindful of the confusion that it was causing. Several attempts were made to rouse the clock to its responsibilities, but it was all to no purpose. It was feared the clock had passed in its last check. "The cause of the trouble was a short circuit, and the clock will be replaced as soon as the motor is repaired," said John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings, this morning.
WILL SELECT ENGINEERS
Electrical Companies Send Out Scouts to Find Most Capable Graduates
The senior electrical engineers will be interviewed tomorrow by George H. Pfeif, secretary of the educational committee of the General Electric Company. The purpose of the interviews is to find men suitable for work with the General Electric Company. A schedule of interviews, of twenty minutes each, has been arranged, in which time Mr. Pfeif intends to choose four or five of the graduates who seem the most desirable. Westinghouse Company will come for a similar interview Monday. Prof. G. C. Shand of the electrical department believes that before the semester is over twelve different representatives will have interviewed the graduate engineers.
The coming of George Pfeif is in accordance with the plans of the General Electric Company and other companies who have an educational organization to locate and employ the students. This organization also oversees the work of these beginners and recommends advancement.
Prof. Leonard C. Van Noppen of Columbia University lectures this afternoon on the Dutch Renaissance. Professor Van Noppen is a poet and will read some of his own poems as well as the standard works of the literature of Holland. He lectured earlier this afternoon to those who are especially interested in the works of Milton.

DAILY CHAPEL
Each year there is a cry for a continuation of the spirit manifested during the football season. Apparently, passing of the gridiron warriors marks the death of enthusiasm as far as the school in general is concerned. For this condition there is one fundamental cause—the inability of the students to meet as a body. Enthusiasm of a general nature requires common thought, common purpose, and constant association of the individuals who are to generate the spirit. But there cannot be the association, the common purpose, or the common thought without some means of collecting the students as a body. Until several years ago the system of daily chapel afforded an opportunity to unify the University population but since the practice was abolished there has been a lack of student meetings and with this lack of gatherings has come a corresponding lack of spirit.
We long to return to the good old days when the Thundering Thousand was something more than a fond recollection. We desire to see some of the old enthusiasm, some of the spirited rivalry between classes and various other factions. It once featured K. U. life and conditions would permit the presence of such spirit now. One thing stands in the way—the inability of students to meet as a body Daily chapel exercises would supply this need.
Give 'em air!
MORE VENTILATION
The most effective remedy for professors to apply to students who show a tendency to let a vacant look steal over their faces during lecture hours, or to go to sleep outnight, is merely to walk across the room and open a window. After forty people have breathed the air contained in one small classroom for an hour, which they do more often than not, surely it has earned the right to be dismissed with the students.
WHOOP 'ER UP
The last home games on the Kansas basketball schedule will be played tonight and tomorrow night in the gym. The Cornhuskers have a strong team and the Jay Hawkers will have to put forth their best efforts to win. Kansas fans should fill the gym for these two games and give the team the same heartied support they would the football men.
K. U. has reached a critical point on her schedule. The slump which struck the team at the time of the games with the Aggies at Manhattan is just subsiding and whether Kansas finishes this season in victory or defeat depends largely on the outcome of these two games. Next week the season ends with two games against Missouri, Wednesday and Thursday
and two against Washington University. Friday and Saturday.
The team is in fighting trim and has shown a big improvement in work since the Washington games but much depends on the support given them.
You can do your part by rooting for the boys tonight and tomorrow night.
The hope of a Permanent Income for the University as a part of a new constitution for the state has apparently been obliterated by the Senate with its vote against the resolution allowing the voters to decide whether a convention is necessary.
The fight for the Permanent Income Bill will not cease with this obstacle. In fact, the fight will go on harder than ever, except through different channels. There is a chance that the permanent income measure will be submitted to a vote of the people at the next regular election as a constitutional amendment. Or, the legislature may pass the measure.
Anyway the fight is only half over. The County Club Union of the University and similar organizations in other schools have done a good work. If their efforts are not successful this years they will have a good start when the next legislature meets.
Now that local authorities have declared with certainty that there are 4,000,000 moths already caught in Lawrence by banding elm trees, you can either believe it or count them for yourself.
THE REAL HEROES
War is thoroughly ground into the spirit of our age. It is reflected by the roar of cannons and the boom of guns. It is the time of a "heap big noise." The big husky fellow who gets his nose thumped in a football game, and the soldier who is wounded on the battle field are lauded to the sky. The world forgets all about the man who silently but faithfully fills his little niche, and the University man who goes out of the Institution with no metals, but with the will to make the life of others easier. But
all these two men are the greater heroes. "It's harder to live for one's country, than to die for it."
A PORTABLE AGE
Stuart Walker's Portmanteau Theater is but one step farther in the popular movement for portable devices. We have folding cups, folding chairs, typewriters that can be folded up and almost put in our pockets, folding cases of all kinds, folding coat hangers, and so on *ad functum*.
Who knows but some day, we may solve the problem of the modern rooming house by carrying folding houses about with us, to be furnished with pocket edition furniture.
Anyway, we welcome the portmanteau theater to our campus. Here's to the success of the portable stage.
Why have the paragraphers overlooked the possibilities for an item on the appropriateness of the name D. Funk for the local undertaker? But perhaps it's dead.
A bill pending action of the legislature calls for a fine for persons caught smoking cigarettes. The legislator who introduced it has done his work for the year and may be assured of the support of all Podunk for the same job in the next election.
"Just a moment, please. Will you kindly open that window a trifle Mr. So-and-So? Thank you. We will now proceed."
SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
"May I bother you again to close the window, it is a little cold now." "Thank you."
Thus it goes. The instructors of the classes meeting in. Fraser Hall must continually stop recitations to regulate the ventilation of the room.
Ten minutes elapse.
There is no longer a shadow of a doubt that we need either new rooms or a better system of ventilation.

There is a university
Way up north.
Nice school too—

But they wouldn't
Keep the

Of course this was
Way up north so
What could you
Expect?
Way they even built
a common bill-board,
A cheap theatrical

The campus!
But one of these
Northerners came to
Kay You, one day.
He saw everything
Spick and span!
No circus bill-board
Discussed the K. U.
Campus!
This man hither hither
Northward and told
Much—very, very
Much.
These people
Way up north
Considered their dirt.
They cleaned up.
They burnt the
Bill-board too.
The campus ain't
Piled up with
Junk no

THEATRE PROFITS TO STUDENT LOAN FUND
Committee Expects to Realize About $250 on Portmanteau Plays
Because of the late start of the afternoon performance of Stuart Walker's Portmanteau Theatre, the audience is asked to enter Fraser Hall by certain doors designated by the seat number. The hour has been put at fourthity, and in order to give ample time for the entire performance of the three one-act plays, "The Trimplet," "The Manipulier," and "Grammar Gurton's Nest." It is imperative that the audience be seated at that time.
The hall has been divided as follows: those holding tickets for sections B, C, and F enter by north door; for sections A, D, and E enter by south door. Those holding tickets for sections B, C, and H enter south door; those in section I use north door.
The date rule will be off for the evening performance of "Six Who Pass While the Len-
gers Neverleave," nevertheless," and Lord Dunsany declares, "The God of the Mountains." The plays start at 8:15.
...
The proceeds from the performances of Stuart Walker's Portmanteau Theater Monday afternoon and evening after defraying, expenses will go to the Students' Loan Fund, which is now in great need of help.
Although the price of admission is much smaller than it is usually allowed by the company, if Fraser Hall is required to loan Fund will realize about $256.
The company has agreed to come to the University of Kansas under a guarantee of $200 less than the one it received at Kansas City, in consideration that the profits will go to the Students' Loan Fund. Stuart Walker, manager and head of the Portmanteau Therapeutic care fee to the Students' Loan Fund when he lectured here in January last year.
Of the total amount in the Students' Loan Fund, $2650, there is only $25 in the treasury at the present rate. For the last year until the end of the semester there was $695 loaned to 14 students, the loans ranging from $50 to $100 each. The most of these were borrowers. A few grow money in order to finish college.
Up to the present time this year $1500 has been loaned to 20 students, while up to this time last year $800 had been loaned to 16 students. According to this ratio, there will be a demand this spring for over $1300.
Prof. E. F. Engel, head of the department of German and secretary of the Student's Loan Fund, said this morning:
"The only source of income of the Students' Loan Fund, outside of the Portmanteau Theater performances, to meet the spring demand is about $200 in unpaid pledges of students and $200 in loans that fail due this spring. However, if we can realize $250 from these performances, we shall have a fund of $650 and with this we shall be able to meet the most urgent needs."

Well, it is made of an imported fabric which has been shaped, reinforced, boned and padded in subtle ways that took its clever designer a long time to perfect.

Injury
Star High Jumper Will Not Meet Aggies Because of Injury
Dick Trewecke pulled a tender in his right leg yesterday afternoon in practice and will not be able to jump in the meet with the Kansas Aggies here Monday night. This will be for Trewecke, who is always counted on for five points in the high jump at every meet. Rice, the other high-jumper is also in a crippled condition due to an injury he received several weeks ago in a work-out. Rice and Miller will have the high jump for Kansas in the meet.
Pattinson and Atwood, and possibly Ziegler, will pole vault for K. U., Winn and Rustenbach will run the low hurdles for Kansas, while Winn, and Casey or Seward will do the high hurdles; probably run the 30-yard dash. Small and Casey or Vernon will toss the weights.
RELAY TEAM IN DOUBT
Murphy and Rodkey are slaked for the half-mile and Sproull and Howland will run the mile. In the quarter O'Leary and Welsh will probably run, although Rinker or Shrove may get into this race. Rinker may run in the mile. Groene and Stateler will be the two milers.
AGGIE STRENGTH UNKNOWN
The relay team has not been decided on but Welsh, Sproull, Rockey, and O'Leary will probably be the four men. Rinker and Murphy are the other two possibilities in this event Monday night.
AGGIE STRENGTH UNKNOWN The Aggie team still remains a mystery and the K. U. track followers may be treated as an impostor. Manage the Aggie team proves to be a dark horse. Their team will probably be as strong as usual in the high jump which will be a Kansas weak point.
Keys will either run the two mile or half for the Aggies, while Shaw and Seber, both good men, are handling the mille. Holyroyd and Turner appear to be the best quarter milers for high jump and Turner for high jump and Turner will pole vault. The relay team,promises to be weaker than last year. The dashes and weights will be handled by new men according to advance information.
SPORT BEAMS
The Aggies won another game from the Huskers last night by the score of 37 to 10. This puts the Aggies in direct running order for the Missouri Valley Conference championship. They will be undisputed champions should they win from Missouri at Columbia, March 5 and 6.
The present standing of the Missouri Valley Conference race is:
G. GW. GL. Pct.
Missouri 8 6 2 .750
Aggies 8 6 2 .750
Kansas 10 7 3 .750
Ames 6 3 3 .500
Drake 2 0 2 .000
Nebraska 4 0 4 .000
Washington 6 0 6 .000
The Aggies tied up with Missouri in the Missouri Valley Conference face winning from the Nebraska five last night. Both now have .750 per cent.
The Jayhawkier quintet can also tie up with both the Tigers and Aggies by winning both games from Nebraska tonight and tomorrow night.
Coach Clevenger of the Kansas Aggies will referee the game tonight.
His five has just succeeded in taking two straight from the Huskers.
Adrian Lindsey, all-Missouri Valley halfback last season, showed up exceptionally well in the practice last night. He displayed a lot of speed and was good at connecting with the basket.
Humpty Wilson, another player from the football squad, bagged baskets from all corners of the court. He also was fast on the floor.
The women basketball players held their largest and best rally in the history of K. U. last night in Robinson Gymnastium. The object was to create more interest in women's basketball games. The rally was a decided success, according to the men-golf-tossers who had to pass by the inside windows in order to leave the gymnastium after they were through with their last practice for the Nebraska game tonight.
The Ahokus Society met in the trophy room of Robinson Gymnasium yesterday afternoon to discuss plans for the remainder of the basketball season and the baseball season. Mgr. W. O. Hamilton commended this society and the said it had achieved more for the cell of athletics than any other society ever organized at the University. The duty of this organization is to assist athletes to remain eligible for various sports.
Thirty-five or more women rooters will come from Kansas City for the women's Jayhawker-Ottawa and Freshman-Polytechnic games tomorrow afternoon, according to a telegram received this morning. They are the first big home games and promise some real excitement for the girl athletes.

But he has only partly revealed himself for we don't yet know what R. J. stands for. Neither will the "Under Cover" audience—until a few minutes before the final curtain drops.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
NUMBER 97.
VOLUME XIV
BIDS ARE ISSUED FOR ALL UNIVERSITY PARTY
Governor Capper, Board of Administration and Faculty to be Guests of Students
VISUALIZE COLONIAL DAYS
Pageants, Reception and Dancing Comprise Program for Third Annual Party
In the last few years there has been a decided tendency in University functions toward pageants portraying aspects of life, especially the life of the patriotic play lies in its appeal to the love of the country and its power to visualize the past. Customs, personages and the spirit of historic events are things in the patriotic pageant play.
Invitations have been issued for Colonial party next Saturday night, to all faculty members, Governor Capper and the members of the Board of Administration. The Colonial party is the third annual, all-University party to be given by the students for the faculty. But that university faculty members are to attend. It is for everyone University students who are not in the pageant should come to their own party.
The patriotic play is simple; its appeal is along general lines. The little one-act episodes have a wonderful power in showing the development of the country through the portraying of the lives of heroes in American history.
The pageant in the all-University party Saturday night will consist of three episodes. These one-act plays deal with the life of George Washington and events prior to his birth. The pageant will be with the every day life of the Indians.
The pageant will not be the only attraction of the evening. From seven-forty-five until eight-thirty an informal reception will be held. Then comes the pageant followed by dancing until twelve o'clock.
The following committees for the party were approved this meeting.
PROF. EXPLAINS PICTURES
The following committees for the party were announced this morning:
General arrangements, Gordon F. Stuart F. Stuart decoration, Milton Nigg, chairman; Nellie G. Dudley, Lydia Ainsworth, Wendell Foster; program, Oscar Major, chairman; Hallele Clark, Lester Bloomheart; publicity, E. Lawson May, chairman, Alice Bowley, costumes, Malie Mcleire; dances, Dorothy Cole, chairman, Isabell Gibbs, Bertha Mix and Helen Clark
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 19, 1917.
William S. Hekking Says True Artists Go To The Soul of Nature
"Do not ask me the price of any of these pictures," said Prof. William S. Hekking, of the School of Fine Arts, in speaking to the visitors at the art collection on the third floor of the Administration Building yesterday afternoon. "The knowledge that this collection is valued at $35,000 might shock one, but it will not add to his enjoyment of the pictures."
"The idea that only foreign landscapes were made by the Creator to be painted is fast losing ground Nearly all the landscapes in this collection are American scenes, and our painters have done a good job."
"We see very little art in this part of the country. Artists do not like to send their best canvases on long exhibition tours. Nevertheless, we can appreciate art when it comes because it speaks a cosmopolitan language. In landscape painting the artist does more than give a faithful rendering of the outward form of nature and of our own identity of her every mood. Artists often take great liberties with their subject, omitting and transposing as they please, but if they go to the soul of nature, they are successful."
Sunday was the last day of the exhibit. The collection, which consists of eighteen American artists, is one of the best ever shown at the University.

K. U, DIVISION OF ENGINEERS TO HOLD MEETING IN MARCH
The annual meeting of the K. U. division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers will be held here some time in March. An all-day session is planned, in which technical and various other topics of interest will be discussed. L. P. Breckenridge, Jr., a member of the Society of Mechanical Engineers, heads the list of speakers for this meeting. In 1909 the K. U. Society of Mechanical Engineers became associated with the national society. The following year it was decided to hold an annual all-day session to which vari- vated members were invited. The meeting in 1910 was a success and attracted favorable comment in the leading engineering journals of the country.
ENGINEERING COMPANY CALLS FOR RECRUITS
Unofficial Authority Has Been Granted for Organization of New Company
Recruiting for the new engineering company will begin today, according to a statement made by Capt. F. E. Jones this morning. The work of recruiting will be carried on by Captain Jones at Fowler Shops, R. L. Hover and H. A. Hullam and H. A. Roberts at Marvin Hall. Four engineers made application and were enlisted before recruiting beran.
Unofficial authority for the transfer of Company M and the organization of the new unit has already been granted, and it is likely that a special order authorizing the move will be received within a few days. Meanwhile, recruiting will go on, and in case anything should happen that the company cannot be formed the men must be released since they are not really in the guard until they have taken the oath of enlistment.
"New recruits or prospective members will be invited to attend the regular drill of Company M Tuesday night," said Captain Jones, "but they were required to drill until the new company is recruited to full strength."
GRADING SYSTEM CHANGED
FOR GRADUATE SCHOOL
A change in the system of grading in the Graduate School was voted recently at a meeting of the faculty of the Graduate School. Beginning September 1917, all grades of graduate students will be sent in as Satisfactory, incomplete or Failure. The graduate students are now graded by the same system used in the College and other schools.
"The change was made in order to get away from the numerical systems of valuing a student's work," said Dean F. W. Blackmar this morning at the college where his student at the end of a semester that his work has been worth a I, II, or III. He is an independent scholar, and the question is Has he done a scholar's work? If he has he should be graded incomplete or should be graded incomplete or failed according to the merits of the case." The numerical or A, B, C, D system of grading is satisfactory in the college, according to Dean Blackmar, but graduate students should be given a higher plane than undergraduates.
Student Council Election
The Student Council will hold an election a week from Wednesday to fill two vacancies, one from the School of Engineering and the other from the School of Medicine. The petitions must be in the hands of the secretary, Marvin Gear, at the Kanza house by Tuesday.
The last number of the Journal of the American Medical Association (February 10) makes special mentor and discusses at length the two papers recently published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry by Nelson and Burns, and Nelson and Williams on "Calcium and Magnesium Metabolism in Normal Men." Doctor Nelson, who has charge of the department of biochemistry, is on leave of absence during the present year and is working at Rush Medical College of the University of Chicago.

VAN NOPPEN TELLS OF DUTCH RENAISSANCE
Holland's Official Lecturer Reviews Literary Work of The Netherlands
NATION DESERVES CREDIT
Has Given More to the World Than Any Other Country
Prof. Leonard C. Van Noppen, of Columbia University, told in Fraser Chapel Friday afternoon of Holland, her literature, and her people."A people that got less from God and gave more to man than any other country." His subject was "The Dux Renaissance."
As the result of a propaganda which was started in Holland some years ago to spread authoritative information about the Netherlands, Professor Van Noppen was chosen by Queen Wilhelmina as the official lecturer of Dutch language and literature in this country.
DUTCH INVENTED CLEANLINESS
Professor Noppen showed where many of the principles of our Republican government came from Holland. The three branches of government, the bicameral system of legislation, is in Holland in the seventeenth century.
MILTON COPIED FROM VONDEL
Before delivering his address on "The Dutch Renaissance" Professor Van Noppen talked informally before the faculty and students of the department of English on Milton's "Paradise Lost" and Vondel's "A Treat of the same subject," one as an epic, and the other as a drama.
"Holland's art and literature should have its rightful place in the curriculum of the American university," said Professor Van Noppen. "In proportion to her numbers Holland has given more great scholars, painters, inventors, and warriors to the world than any other country. The struggle with the elements, the difficulty of keeping the country anchored to the continent has made the Hollander practical. The art is intriguing, microscope, and compass all originated in the little country of Holland. The Dutch also invented cleanliness, and they have carried it so far that it has become the national vie
The "Lucifer" preceded "Paradis Lost" some eleven years; and in this connection Professor Van Noppen set forth some highly interesting external and internal evidence that Mildred with the great Dutchman's productions but also that, according to the freedom permissible in those times, he did not hesitate to use some of Vondel's characters and choruses. Prose was a study which shows several hundred parallels between the two poems.
Professor Van Noppen succeeded in creating great interest and enthusiasm among many in his audience for the study of the Dutch language and literature and showed what a wide field of study and investigation is still open for the American student, outside of the usual beaten path.
He read parts of his translation of vondel, which have been before the Academy.
Students hurryring from class seldom stop to think that at one time the campus was but a barren hill-top. But such was the case, and doubtless would be today, if some of ourforesters had not planted trees years ago.
Professor Noppen is now conducting a series of lectures in the universities over the country. He lecturer at Stanford Junior University today.
TREES GREW WITH CAMPUS
Old Cottonwood Near Snow Hal Over 50 Years
NEW BUILDING PLANS CONSIDERED BY BOARD
Many of the larger trees were planted about the time Fraser Hall was built, and they have seen the development of the University from every angle. The old cottonwood near Snow Hall has viewed the erection of university buildings and the steadily growing forest over the past fifty years, while many of the walnuts and elms remember nearly that far back.
Old
There are many trees of the younger generation which have not witnessed all of this past development but which hope to see an even greater amount of progress in the future. Of this younger generation, it is worth touching with the Russian Olive, Allanthus, Osage Orange, Coffee Bean, Hop Hornbean, Buck Thorn, and other trees that are common in Kansas.
Discuss Accommodation of Fine Arts School in New Administration Building
FOUR DEGREES GRANTED
Graduate Students Given Degrees at Meeting Saturday —Silent on Manager Bill
"The primary purpose of the meeting of the Board of Administration Saturday was to consider plans for the proposed addition to the Administration Building," said Chancellor Strong. "This morning, of course, no appropriations were reached, as the appropriation bill has not been passed."
Members of the board made no comment on legislation pending at Topeka. The bill providing for replacements in teachers boards with a state manager has passed the House and is now before the Senate. If passed, this bill will greatly increase the authority of the state educational institutions.
WORK OF MANAGER
The principal duty of the state manager would be to act as purchasing agent of all the state educations. Some steps have already been taken in this direction. The Board of Administration now has a purchasing department. The state manager's work would be a development of this work.
The proposed law provides for an administrative administration to take the place of the present state boards. This board would resemble the old board of regents of the University, and members would receive no salaries.
The bill has the backing of Governor Capper, and it is expected that next week will determine whether it will pass the Senate.
Four degrees were granted by the Board Saturday to students in the Graduate School. William S. Spicer was granted the degree of Bachelor of Science. The degree of Master of Arts was granted to Edna Florence Thomas by the degree of Mary Thomas received the degree of Bachelor of Music.
GRANT FOUR DEGREES
FICTION IS UNPOPULAR
University Librarian Says That Students Read Good
"The charge that students do only light reading is unfounded," stated Miss Carrie Watson, head librarian at Sooner Library.
JAYHAWKER "MAPS" MUST BE IN REFORE MARCH
"On the contrary," Miss Watson said, "Students read good books and show as good taste for literature as do professors and more mature readers. But students have been that after a student has been in college for a while he acquires a taste for好 literature and will read no other kind. The library tries to meet this demand by placing the best kind of literature in the hands of the students."
To Decide Prize Essay Contest
The essays submitted in the contest for five dollars offered by the Alumni Association for the best essay on "College Spirit" have been turned over to the judges, E. W. Murray, associate professor of Latin, W. C. Stevens, professor of botany, and L. N. Flint, professor of journalism. The essays be submitted to the judge as judges receive the winner, and the prize-winning essay will be published in the March number of the Graduate Magazine.
Jas. G. Akright and Geo. A. Montgomery will play for the checker championship of the city Y, M. C. A. next Saturday noon. A tournament was held in which Akright and Montgomery tied for first place. There will not be any charge to this exciting game.
Prof. M. C. Elmer, of the department of sociology, left Friday for Council Grove. Professor Elmer is making a social survey of that city.
The card files show that at present little fiction is checked out to students. This was accounted for by the fact that the amount of assigned reading is unusually heavy. In the afternoons and evenings, every chair is occupied with showing that students are kept busy on assigned reading. As a rule, they have little time for any other kind of reading; but what voluntary reading is done is confined largely to fiction of the better class, plays, and works along some special line in interest. The only present, the library has but one book by Harold Bell Wright, and that copy was donated.
Seniors and organizations must turn in their Jayhawker pictures a Room 102, Dyche Museum, before March 1, according to Arnold Nordstrom, editor of the 1917 Jayhawker. February 15 because the photographers could not accommodate all students by that time. Many of the senior pictures and write-ups are still to be handed in. If any of the seniors need help with writing or do so before this date, they should notify Nordstrom at once.
Over 100 junior pictures have all ready been turned in at the Jayhawker office. The juniors are responding rapidly, although their time limit has been extended to March 10. They are urged to hand in the pictures as soon as they can obtain the gloss prints.
FOUR ENGINEERS MAY GET GOOD POSITIONS
General Electric Company Representative Interviews K. U. Senior Electricals
George H. Pfeif, of the Genera Electric Company of Schenectad, New York, was here Saturday interviewing members of the senior class of the School of Engineering. Of the seventeen men majoring in Electrical Engineering Mr. Pfeif hopes to se cure the services of four or more.
Upon his departure Mr. Pfreif will give a list of the names of the men he wants to G.C. Shaad, professor of mechanical engineering and some application blanks for these men to fill out. The men who sign up will be sent to Schenectady immediately after graduation, where they will do a final test of the company's machines.
At the present time the General Electric Company has in its employ two hundred and fifty students from eighty-five different colleges and universities and owns the company in Schenectady, New York; Pittsfield, Massachusetts; and Erie, Pennsylvania. This system of securing graduates of electrical engineering schools has been used for many years by the General Electric Company.
Last year W. F. Davis, C. B. Sykes,
and H. M. Stevens joined the company
and are doing satisfactory work.
Among the older Kansas men, who
are doing work of exceptional value to
the company are W. Stone, How-
eley, A. Coyne, A. Crutchfield,
R. I. Parker, R. W. Wilson, W. F.
Coors and H. F. Winters.
Mr. Pfief came here from the Agricultural college at Manhattan. He will go to the University of Nebraska from here.
PORTMANTEAU THEATRE GETS AN AIRING Manager's Name is Harold
Nothing will curdle the glitter and glamour of the stage like sunshine. It is the best little old detective in the world. To see the Portmanteau theatre scattered about the campus, ability-neglectiveness are the most important columns are the result of some painter's ingenuity who had once seen a piece of marble. Those sick-looking green masks aren't masks at all. They are the countenances of the "gods" in "The Gods of the Mountains". Those pencil marks on each one are, perhaps, directions which the "gods" follow in putting them on.
This Portmanteau theatre is a great deal like a regular show, though. The stage-carpenter smokes "tailor-ing" smoke from the fire as well. He speaks "bowery" well and English broken. But the business-manager's name is Harold. He's a real business manager, however. He was born in Boonboro" with a slight "Alabama accent."
"Earnie," said Harold (Earnie is the stage-carpenter). "We'll have to use those extra sewers to shield them." And Earnie understood, him, perfectly.
There is an intellectual "air" about the Portmanteau people. Two of the young men of the company are graduates of Michigan. One young man fresh from Vassar. No, there is nothing common or plobian about them.
Gama Phi Beta held its annual winter initiation Friday and Saturday. A banquet was given at the 'house Saturday night.'

Coach Schulz Says Verbal Contract Does Not Hold in Conference
NO AGGIE OUTDOOR MEET
Coach Hamilton Retaliates by Calling Off Meet Scheduled for May 4
The track meet which was to be held here tonight with the Kansas Aggies was cancelled yesterday by Coach Germany Schulz, track coach of the Manhattan school, in telephone calls from Coach W. O. Hamilton. He said there has been no written contract made with K. U. for a meet on that date. He gave as his reason for breaking the verbal contract made with Coach Hamilton when the conference meet- taped on Manhattan some time ago, the fact that the Aggies had the team capable of defeating Kansas at this time of the season.
Sometimes a written contract is made between the conference schools but the verbal contract is generally considered sufficient in the Valley for an absolute guarantee of the athletic event agreed upon. The Aggie school is a new member of the Missouri Valley Conference, said that his school was accounted to make dates for meets by written contract.
COACH HAMILTON FOR MIDTOWN track coach that if the meet tonight with the Aggies was called off, the date of the outdoor meet with them on May 4 was automatically broken because it was made merely by verbal statement. Manager Hamilton was not pleased with the attitude taken by the Manhattan school in breaking the date, and he said that the Aggies had no team able to defeat K. U. as a sufficient reason for breaking the date.
A meet with Oklahoma or some northern school will be substituted for the outdoor meet with the Agries. No indoor meet will be scheduled in place of the Aggie meet on account of the present heavy schedule. The Agries will meet at Mayhattan on Saturday night and the Aggies won 50 to 35 in a slow meet. K. U. won from the Normals the latter part of January, 57 to 28.

MRS. H. A. RICE DIES
Funeral Services for K. U. Professor's Wife To Be In Olivet Tomorrow
Mrs. Edith Rice, wife of Professor H. A. Rice of the School of Engineering, died at the Swedish Hospital, Kansas City, Mo., yesterday morning. Mrs. Rice underwent an operation at the State Hospital in Rosemont, which she has been well since. She was taken to the Swedish Hospital February 8.
Mrs. Rice was born in Olivet in 1882. After graduating from high school she attended the University of Kansas. She was married to Proctor in 1905 and spent time they have lived at 1304 Ohio Street.
Mrs. Rice is survived by her mother, Mrs. M. Sweezy, of Olivet, and six brothers. Funeral services will be held in Olivet, tomorrow afternoon. Dean and Mrs. P. F. Walker, and Prof. and Mrs. G. C. Shaad, of the School of Engineering will attend the funeral.
That Alfred Noyes made quite an impression on the student body is plainly seen from the fact that all of his students were checked from Spooner Library.
Rose Segelbaum, c'19 spent Saturday and Sunday at her home in Kansas City, Kansas.
Marguerite Melville spent Sunday at her home near Vinland.
All people attending the performance of the Portmanteau Theatre in Fraser chapel are invited to enter by the north door.

MAKING PROGRESS
Now that most of the fraternity freshmen have exchanged their pledge buttons for pins, it becomes apparent that initiations are not what they used to be; which is a pleasing thing to note. Time was when Greeks deemed it necessary to humiliate their brothers-to-be before the eyes of the public in order that the ceremony might seem impressive. An entire semester was spent in "knocking off the rough edges, as the upper classmen said, and then, when it seemed the pledge had assumed manhood proportions, he was subjected to a round of Tom Foolery which depended for its success upon the absurdity of the action. Finally, the childishness of this practice became apparent and as a result the fraternities today give their initiations a more serious aspect.
It should be thus. If fraternities really personify their oft-stated ideals, it is impossible to associate horse-play with the act of entrance into the organizations. Assuming membership in any body of this kind should be a serious matter, the next thing to sacred, and the society which thrusts a series of humiliations upon an initiate, while at the same time vainly endeavoring to make him realize his future responsibility, not only defeats its expressed purpose but likewise casts a reflection upon fraternities in general. The Greek letter societies at K. U. are therefore to be commended for the reform inasmuch as its accomplishment not only overcame a condition which hindered their progress but also removed a blur which furnished an excellent target for critics.
DROP IN!
Excepting the two or three weeks before the final quizzes, the University library is not put to the use it should be. Most of the work done there by the students is superficial; they skim over their required readings hurriedly and never give a thought to the optional.
The state is paying out from five to ten dollars a magazine every year for any number of political and economic journals. These are for the students, not the faculty, but a large majority of the students don't even know that such papers are coming to the library.
It will prove profitable for anyone to take a little time off each day and just browse around Spooner to learn of new books and magazines in stock. But a small part of a college education is to be gotten from textbooks alone.
THE SPIRIT OF GAYETY
THE SPIRIT OF GAYETY It is all very well to take life seriously, to have a purpose in life, and all that sort of thing—one should never regard everything as a huge joke—but he who can throw off failure and defeat, can laugh at knocks and tumbles as good jokes, who does
not brood or pander over obstacles for one moment, is the fellow who will "get there." He has the same gay, light heartedness as the French knight who sang merciless, tossing his sword into the air, as he rode into battle at Hastings. That is the spirit which wins. The optimistic is seldom vanquished.
Are K. U, women really the sport enthusiasts they claim to be? The crowd at the recent girls' basketball game with Ottawa would not indicate that they were, nor would their attendance at the games in which the Varsity has participated. Apparently it takes a date to coex them to the gymnasium and an even greater inducement to make them enthuse over the home team. University women are just as responsible for team support as the men and they are solely responsible for supporting the girls' team. A little more life on the part of K. U, women would be noticeable.
Stuart Walker is not so much pumpkins after all. His Portmanteau Theater is simply an enlargement of the affairs we used to have which were set up in the barn loft and commanded an admission price of three pins. And we'll bet a cent the famous Belasco stage manager has never played to a more interested audience than some of those which occupy conspicious positions in our memory.
The cat that has nine lives is not in it with some people who can lose their heads twice as often in one day and still live.

O for a spring shower that will at least cleanse the outsides of Lawrence street car windows.
READ THE NEWSPAPERS
There are many kinds of education we can receive at the University, but in all probability most of us have set our minds upon one definite objective, and in a more or less determined manner are trying to become specialized in our chosen and particular line of work. At the present time, however, we are passing through a stage with rapid and diverse changes of nations, that we should know something of the momentous questions of the day, and how they are being dealt with. Not everyone is privileged to be educated by our courses, so that we give them the general education they desire, either from lack of time, or a financial condition that will suffice.
There can be no excuse, on the other hand, for anyone not having a good, thorough, and complete knowledge of present day affairs. It is a duty we owe to ourselves, as well as the country in which we live, to keep up with current events so that we can be able to take an intelligent part in the affairs of the country after we leave these halls of learning. The manner in which this can be done is to spend a portion of each day reading the newspaper accounts of what is actually taking place. A prevalent habit, which one can notice in the common rooms at the present time is to see many of those who read at home often. They are often called "would be" fans. Then two or three "would be" fans and so as a hockey player, or the chance of this or that team winning the first or second series of games. There can be no harm in taking a passing interest in things sporting, but the general trend is too often that this is as far as their reading extends. Have you ever heard of someone who has gathered from a problem of real worth? About all they know of what is going on outside the realm of sport is what they have gathered from a bulletin board or from a poster placed in front of a grocery shop or book store. Try to discuss, at any length, a topic of national concern, and what do you so often find. These are the people who come across new phase of a situation which has arisen, in the course of a very short time it is clearly understood that the same people are nothing more than veneer. If they are a little more interested than the average, in all probability they will read nearly all the large headlines on the front pages, and possibly the back faced abbreviated headlines on the pages of the paper they would never think of reading an article of one or two columns in length. That would be a waste of time.
Erdulition is a splendid thing, but it is not all. There should be more to be obtained from a college education than learning to become a bookworm; rather, we work a time such as the present, with its almost boundless possibilities, to obtain the advantages which are within the reach of all—McCill Daily.

Very likely there are a few enrolled in that division of the University who deserve commendation, but in the main they give every evidence
They are going forth upon the state to foist a living from society and will do all in their power to halt progress and hold up the onward march of civilization with their backward looking legalistic minds.
They are the source of most of the ill-will engendered in the state against the University. They are a non-religious, cynical, unsocial element here in the University and will remain so all their days, in the state and nation. The only way society can make progress in government or social life is to increase it more it is done the better. Most of them are attracted to the status quo ante as a man's eyes to the present style in ladies' hosiery.
It is irritating to watch their conduct on the campus. There is the flippant air of self satisfaction that accompanies the parasite and which is always evidence of restricted view. Their attitude is not in evidence in any of the other, schools on the Hill except in a very minor degree.
Most of them are receiving training that will leave them at least a hundred years behind the times in economic and social fields and most other fields of knowledge. Why do not the university authority permit a waxy layer to be placed besides an explorer and a social irritant before he is permitted to graduate?

Jayhawkers Came Back Strong and Won Second Game of Series 30 to 10
GAME FULL OF ROUGHING
Three Men Sent From Game or Fouls—Many Football Players in Lineup
After playing a ragged game Friday night the Jayhawker quintet returned to championship form in the 11th game of the Huskers with a 20 to 10 score.
Kansas started the game with a rush that swept the Huskers off their feet, and Gibbens scored after thirty seconds of play with a free goal, followed, a minute later, by a long field goal by Scrubby Laslett.
KANSAS TAKES BIG LEAD After two minutes of play, Nelson, Husker center, started the scoring for Nebraska with a short goal from the side-lines. The ball then went back and forth across the floor for four minutes before Captain Fat Nelson competed with another field player for Kansas. Scrubby Laslett added another long field goal thirty-seconds later, and after another minute of play, R. Urllaub bagged one from the sidelines.
Campbell, Husker right forward, and Gibbens, Kansas right forward, each added a free goal, and time was called out for Kansas when Captain McCormick scored from the lower row of seats. He was up in a minute and continued in the game. Flothow, Husker left forward, bagged a field basket and then R. Uhrlauh connected for a free goal. The half against the score 11 to 6 in favor of Kansas.
COULDN'T STOP KANSAS
Campbell opened the scoring in the second half after two minutes of play with a free goal. Kansas pilied up seven points before Wertz, right guard, scored again for the Huskers with a basket from the field. E. Uhrlauh replaced Lyle who went out on personal fouls. R. Uhrlau added three on a field forward and a free goal. Campbell, Husker forward, added an additional point. Campbell scored the game a minute later on personal fouls. Jackson took his place.
Jackson threw a free goal, and Kansas started another bombardment of the goal which netted nine points in the next few minutes. Two minutes before the end of the half, Coach Stewart sent Flynn in for Flotlow at left forward, and Pickett for Ridell at left guard. The crowd went wild when Coach Hamilton sent in Adrian Lindsey and Rook Woodward, football stars. Lindsey replaced Gibbens and Woodward, replaced Leaflett. The game was already on and after two more minutes of rough playing the game closed with the score standing 30 to 10 in favor of the Crimson and Blue.

MYSTERIOUS STRANGER
AT LAST IS UNMASKED
The mysterious stranger who has been flitting here and there about the Hill for the last two weeks has finally been identified. R. J. is the leading character in the coming Dramatic Club play, "Under Cover." The part will be played by Frank H. McFarland who will be remembered as the leading character in "The Man From Home," two years ago.
The identity of R. J. has been the subject of much speculation on the part of students and faculty. Signs, posters and advertisements bearing the two initials have greeted them on every hand. Wild guesses have been made that the student arette to a new class building have been suggested as possible solutions. But the exact meaning of the two letters, R. J., has not been revealed as yet. It is said that no one will know this until a very few minutes later. The teacher slides down "Under Cover." And the management promises that when all is explained, there will be 940 surprised play-goers.

Juniors and Freshmen Run Up Big Score Against Visiting Teams
Playing a fast aggressive style of basketball the Jayhawker junior women's team and the freshman sexteette easily won two hard-fought games with the Ottawa University sexteethe and the Polytechnic Institute Robinson Rousselon Gymnasium Saturday afternoon by the score of 44 to 27 and 47 to 21.
The junior women outclassed the Ottawa axtette in every department of the game, although the Ottawa women put up a hard fight from start to finish. The teamwork of the juniors was excellent, and the ability of Joyce Brown and Dorothy Querfeld, forwards, were the chief factors in the Jayhawker victory.
Kansas started the scoring after one minute of play when Dorothy Querfeld caged a pretty basket from the field. During the entire first half the Jayhawker forwards threw goals almost at will. The half ended 27 to 16 and Kansas was in possession; came back strong in the second half and held the Jayhawkers to a 17 to 15 score making the final score 44 to 27 in favor of Kansas.
The Jayhawker freshmen women easily outplayed the Polytechnic Institute sextette from the beginning to the exception of the fourth quarter.
The Kansas junior women's team will play a return game with the Ottawa University sextette at Ottawa tomorrow. Coach Nina Cowan predicted that the Jayhawker women will be defeated on the Ottawa U. court.

"UNDER COVER"
NO.3
This being the third of a series of talks about that coming Dramatic Club production
—the price
Never before in the history of K. U. dramatics has as much money been spent in producing a play, as will be spent in the production of "Under Cover." Never before has a scene painter of wide reputation, been employed to faithfully reproduce every canvas—nor a stage carpenter to build every scene—not a professional electrician to produce the desired lighting effects.
And yet the price will remain the same. To avoid a deficit 940 seats at the Bowersock must be filled and it is the honest opinion of the management that they will be. The prices are as follows:
All of Lower Floor...75c
First 3 Rows of Balcony...75c
Balance of Balcony...50c
Second Balcony (Not Reserved)...25c
The club is at its height of perfection this year—the play is remarkable—the production of it perfect and the price where it should be—within easy reach of every student.
Mail-Order Seat Sale
There's going to be a rush for seats when they go on sale and you can save yourself a lot of worry by mailing your check in NOW to Frank H. McFarland, at Green Hall.

LITTLE THEATRE WINS BY INTIMATE APPEAL
Freedom From Gaudy Costumes and Scenery Centers Attention on Players
POPULARITY NATION WIDE
All-Star Casts Carry Needed Dramatic Impulse to Small Communities
The Portmanteau Theatre, the theatre that comes to you—the theatre of simplicity—the theatre with great possibilities for future good presented by Stuart Walker. On a regular day, under the personal direction of Stuart Walker, originator of the Portmanteau Theatre. Fraser Hall was crowded in the afternoon and only a few seats were vacant at night. Stuart Walker became emamy between the players and itself.
For it is the personality, simplicity of costumes, vivid imagination and directness of style, so appealing to the audience that is responsible for the success the Portmanqueau Theatre apparently is meeting everywhere.
That spirit of intimacy with the audience permeated the plays from the moment the chimes and gongs sounded behind the curtain and the "Persons Before the Play" gave a warning prologue that the audience should not go to sleep until the last beggar in the "God of the Mountains" been turned to stone and the citizens bowed in submission to them.
No gaudy settings or costumes have a part in the plays. Stuart Walker believes such settings divide the attention of the audience.
AUDIENCE PART OF PLAY
"An actor's art alone should be able to hold the attention of his hearers," said Mr. Walker. "Then you know just where you are all the time and the circumstances are always evident."
The acting, lighting effect, costuming and scenery were appealing in their simplicity and vividness. The players made the audience a part of the play. You were one of them. You could ask questions if you cared to The Portmanteau Theatre players answered them.
SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
MIXER FOR TONIGHT
"The Portmanteau Theatre is bound to spread," said one of the actors last night after the performance. "It is the only way the small towns can have all-star casts brought to them. Larger companies carrying a vast amount of scenery cannot make these smaller towns. And the little theatre plan already has been started successfully in larger cities."
The men in the School of Education are making arrangements for a mix tonight from eight to nine-thirty o'clock, in Room 150, Fraser Hall. Arrangements of the committee include a short program, something to eat, and a general discussion of educational problems.
The object of the meeting is to develop a closer acquaintance among the men of the School of Education and to exchange ideas on educational problems. It is planned to make these meetings permanent if enough interest is manifested by the men in the School.
The committee in charge of the arrangements is composed of A. K Loomis, Freed Rodkey, H. C. Fisk, Lay, W. J, Warren, and A. E Elliott.
MANY ENGINEERS VISIT K. C. AUTOMOBILE SHOW
Approximately 300 students attended the auto show at Kansas City last week. At least 100 of them were from the School of Engineering. They attended the show to study the latest types of motors at Kansas City, and others went just for curiosity, and others to be able to tell their friends that they took in "the show." Many students will write reports on the latest types of motors, based on their observations; these papers will be read at meetings of the various society groups. Their warranty, giving those who were unable to attend an opportunity to profit by the experiences of those who did.
Prof. S. J. Hunter, state entomologist, was recently appointed city forester of Lawrence and under his direction every elm tree in the city has been properly wrapped with bands to do away with canker worms.
H. B. Hungerford, assistant professor in the entomology department, who has been working on his Ph. D. at Cornell University, has been called to his home in Nebraska on account of the death of his father.
The University of Illinois is said to have the largest university band in the United States. There are 200 in the band.
MAY BUY PICTURE OF
FORMER K. U. PROFESSOR
Plans are being made which, if completed, will make the University owner of a life-size oil portrait of Prof. S. W. Williston, at one time dean of the School of Medicine and now one of the foremost educators in the world. The artist, Charles G. Corwin, has sent the painting here for display and the purchase he is planned by old friends of Mr. Williston.
The portrait has been hung in Room 310, Administration Building. The matter of its purchase will be considered soon. If it is bought from Fraser Hall or the placed in Fraser Hall until the Administration Building is completed.
AGGIES MUST SIGN CONTRACT IN FUTURF
Jayhawker Mentor Will No Risk Having Athletic Dates Broken Next Year
Manager W. O. Hamilton will demand a written contract for the football game scheduled for next fall with the Aegis League. In view of the Manhattan bank broke verbal contract made in Manhattan, December 9, for an indoor track meet here February 19. Coach Hamilton hereafter will make only written contracts.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 20, 1917.
"It will teach all the managers in the Missouri Valley conference to be more careful and probably demand written contracts in the future," said Manager Hamilton, this morning, "but it has been the custom of practically all of the schools in the conference to wait until the day of the wartime event to play the contract. K. U. had no written contract with Nebraska to play basketball last week but we played the game."
"The general plan is for the managers to make athletic dates at the meeting of the conference and then to send a written contract later. Often this contract is not made until the day of the meet because the manager does not have time to make it until them. The University of Oklahoma probably will be substituted for the Aggries on the outdoor track schedule."
WILL ORGANIZE BATTERY
Graduates of Any University Living in Kansas City Are Eligible
Graduates of the University of Kansas in conjunction with graduates of the University of Missouri now living in Kansas are utilizing a battery of mounted artillery.
There must be 126 men enlisted before the battery will be recognized by the war department. Graduates of any college or high school will be eligible. Because nearly all of the graduates of these universities interested in the movement have had military drill in college, they believe there will be no trouble in getting recognition from the war department.
The government will provide for their expenses in addition to furnishing thirty-two saddle horses and field equipment, representing a cost of $25. Every man is paid 25 per cent of the regular army pay in time of neace.
Maj. Milton W. Leach, of the Columbia University Battalion, is chairman of the committee in charge of the movement. The other members are: Thomas S. Ridge, jr., J. W. Longshore, Crosby Kemper, King J. Byers, C. W. Terry, J. W. Long, and C. F. Wasser.
INVITE FACULTY TO BE QUESTS AT "UNDER COVER"
The management of the Dramatic Club, in their preparation of plans for this year's production, "Under Cover," have arranged a new feature which may be accepted as a custom by future members. The play will be occupied by certain members of the faculty who will be guests of the club. The individuals to whom the complimentary box seats will be given have not been decided upon as yet, but it is said that the best booster will be chosen. It is a certain, however, that Chancellor and Mrs. Frank Strong will be among those present.
J. D. M. Crocket will deliver the second of a series of lectures this afternoon to the students in accounting on the subject, "Department Store Accounting." Next Tuesday he will talk on "Partnership Law and Accounting." Mr. Crochet is a certified accountant for Crocket, Crouchman & Co., having offices at Kansas City, St. Louis, and New York.
Eight members of the K. U. Club walked to Baldwin Sunday morning. It took them five hours to walk the route and they returned on the afternoon train.
WOULD UNITE FOR RED CROSS HOSPITAL BASE
Consolidation of Bell Memorial With St. Margaret's Under Consideration
NEEDED IN CASE OF WAR
Plan Discussed at Recent Meeting of K. U. Medic Faculty
Bell Memorial Hospital at Rosedeal and St. Margaret's hospital at Kansas City, Kansas, may be consolidated for the establishment of a Red Cross base hospital in case of war, if plans, being unofficially considered, develop.
Faculty
"Although no official action has been taken, the plan is plausible," said Dr. S. J. Crumbine, dean of the School of Medicine, this morning. "Most of the clinical work at Rosedale is done at St. Margaret's and a consolidation would mean merely a combination of the facilities already owned by the two hospitals. Very little extra expense would be entailed in the project. The plan has been suggested in case war is declared."
At the last meeting of the School of Medicine at Rosedale no action was taken on the proposed combination, according to Prof. A. B. Daina, of the department of chemistry, who attended a brief discussion of the project.
"In case the United States should be drawn into the European conflict," he said, "this section of the country would undoubtedly need a hospital which could be used as a training school and base for Red Cross work. The consolidation of the University hospital with St. Margaret's would be a very logical and practical move, as he noted in his essay. In my opinion, however, it would be quite an expense, as it would mean the addition of at least one hundred more beds at Rosedale. A special appropriation would be required."
Whether such action will be taken depends upon succeeding actions of the United States and the necessity of a rigorous school in this section of the country.
RESTS ON ACTION OF U. S.
It is thought the matter will come up for official discussion at the next meeting of the faculty, when Governor Roberts will meet of Administration will be consulted.
HALL OF FAME NOT FOR ENGLISH SPARROWS
The Truth Will Out—One Dies.
An English sparrow looked through the window at Dyche Museum yesterday and saw for the first time the birds' Hall of Fame. There they all were, in their glass cases, and his little bird heart throbbed as he looked first at one case and then at another. There were the ducks and the doves, the ravens and the wrens, the swallows and the swans, but where—and when—were the sparrows? He flew inside and went from one case to another but not a single English sparrow could be found.
Partly cloudy and probably unsettled tonight and Wednesday, warmen tonight and in southeast portion Wednesday, cooler west portion Wednesday.
Dean Blackman Speaks in K. C.
Dean F. W, Blackmar, of the Grad-
ate School, spoke at the Westminster
Fair on Thursday night at daynight on the subject, "Taxation."
Then he flew outside, his heart grew sad and he wondered why he should find in the Hall of Fame not one of his own tribe. Had all birds but the sparrow done deeds to make themselves remembered? Not another bird could be think of that was not there. He saw the jay, the thrush, the oriole, the robin—but he could go no farther. When he thought of the robin, bittern memories flipped across the screen, the agate, the Cock, an early member of the Robin family, had been brutally murdered, and how one of his own ancestors had boldly, even boastfully, confessed the crime. Those words, "I," said the sparrow, "with my bow and arrow," were bitter, remorseful words now, and when he thought of them he understood why the English sparrow had been left out. He had tried to hide it, but he knew that the sparrow was the Judas of birdhood. It was too much for him, and that is why those who passed the Museum yesterday evening saw him lying dead on the steps
The Weather
Doctor Blackmar opposed the inheritance tax on the ground that it means double taxation. He said that the income tax would more nearly place the burden of taxation where it belongs.
Y. W. C. A. CONFERENCE
AT HOLLISTER, MISSOURI
The conference of the Young Women's Christian Association which formerly met during August at Estes Park, Colo., will hereafter meet at Hollister, Mo., June 15 to 25. As Hollister is more centrally located, it is thought this will result in a larger attendance. Already seventy-five K. U. women have signified their desire to go.
Hollister is a popular summer resort in the heart of the Ozarks. The lakes and the White river, which are close to Hollister, furnish such recreations as canoeing and swimming, and the beautiful scenery in the mountains offers the chance for long, delightful tramps.
INCOME BILL COMES UP FOR VOTE FRIDAY
House Passes Manager Bill
House Passes Manager BI
Framed by Professors Dyk-
stra and Talbot
The House voted yesterday to postpone action on all bills by special order for this week until Friday morning. This action means the consideration of the Permanent Income bill must wait until measures backed by the members of the House have been considered. It will come up for final action with six other proposals to amend the constitution at that time.
The House passed the City Manager bill last week by a vote of 77 to 24. This bill provides for the election of city commissioners who are to serve as a board of directors. They are appointed by $185,000 of the cities of the first-class, $75 a year in second class and $50 a year in third-class cities.
This commission will appoint a city manager, who will be the executive head of the city government. The city commission will have general supervision, the right to hire and discharge a city manager at any time, and will be the legislative branch of the city government.
Another bill affecting the University passed the House last week but has not come up for consideration in the Senate. The bill provides for the abolishment of four administrative boards. In place of these boards a single board is provided which will serve without pay. This is a tax of $5,000 a year who will transact the business now done by the four boards.
Members and employees of the three boards are making a determined fight on the bill and will attempt to defeat it on the floor of the Senate.
PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
Seven "K" Men Will be on the Baseball Squad This Spring
Prospects for Valley championship, in baseball are extremely bright, according to Coach Leo McCarty who is starting baseball practice tomorrow in the gymnasium. Practice will be on McCook Field.
Coach McCarty has more "K" men back in school this year to begin spring practice than at any time since he has been coaching the Varsity squad. Seven "K" men are in school from here, the squirt, and Adrienne "K" man on the 134 squad, will be out to make the team this year.
The seven eligible "K" men from last year's squad are: Captain George Smee, star pitcher and outfielder, Halleck Craig and Constant Poirier, both on the pitching staff, Charley Chase, first base; Leon Gibbens, second base; and Ward Weltmer and Marvin Tylor outfield men. Besides the "K" men there are also several stars from last year's freshman squad and several other players who are expected to make positions on the team.
DEAN L. E. SAYRE PRESENTS
PLAN FOR SPICE REVISION
Every man, who is eligible for the Varsity squad, and who wants to try out for one of the battery positions should report at the Robinson gymnasium tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock.
Dean L. E. Sayre of the School of Pharmacy is attending a meeting of the Board of Health today at Topeka. He will present to the Standards Committee his proposed revision for standards of spices which has been worked out in the drug laboratory of the University.
A class in journalism has been added to the curriculum at the University of Vermont thirty-six students being assigned the course. Half of these are women.
The proposed revision will make such changes as are necessary to make spikes conform to the standards of the United States Pharmacopoeia.
GENERAL FREDERICK FUNSTON DIES OF HEART DISEASE FOLLOWING DINNER IN SAN ANTONIO
Was Chatting With Little Girl When Death Came Suddenly. Had Been In Personal Charge of Army on Mexican Border For Practically a Year
KNEW AND WAS WELL KNOWN BY STUDENTS AND
FACULTY; ALWAYS ON LOOKOUT FOR ADVENTURE
As Student Funston Shone Only In Studies He Liked. Showed Early Tendencies at Fearlessness and Love for Anything That Savored of Fight
Flags in every section of the United States are at half mast today for Major General Frederick Funston, commander of the southern department of the United States Army since February, 1915, and the troops on the Mexican border since March, 1916, who died of heart failure last night in the lobby of the St. Anthony Hotel at San Antonio, Texas, a few minutes after dinner. General Funston was one of the men whom Kansas and its University point out as especially bright lights in its list of famous men. General Funston was chatting with friends after an informal dinner party at the hotel, and was playing with a little girl in the party when he fell unconscious from his chair. He died almost instantly.
"Flighting Fred" Funston entered the University from Allen County, near Iola, where his parents had lived on a farm since Fred was 2 years old. He first enrolled in 1886 at the age of 21, but his attendance was only spasmologic for the next four years. The records of the registrar show that he attended the University in 1886-'87, '78-'88, and '89-'90, and that he was ranked as a sophomore in his last year.
His regular school work was broken into on two different occasions by trips of adventure, once to Death Valley, and later to Alaska. His life involved the love of adventure and his aggressive and even warlike temperament.
He was a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity at the same time as William Allen White, and between these two a close friendship sprang
"FIGHTING FRED" FUNSTON
up that lasted through his life. His three years in the University gave him many lasting friendships and many experiences that were to prove valuable to him in later life. That the University men of today are much different than those of his day was shown in an article he wrote for the now defunct Kansas Magazine in 1909. General Funston wrote:
U.S.
"We were a pretty plain lot, and the most of showed by gait and appearance the results of assiduously following the cultivator up and down the sweltering corn rows and wielding the pitchfork in haying time. Some few owned evening dress suits, but were them apologetically and unkindly told that they would off. The "Phi Gama," who came from Atchison and Topeka, were currently reported to sleep in pajamas, and to scorn the homely but comfortable "nighty," and so were looked up as being apart."
WAS A SCRAPPER
And to further prove the experience he had gained in the University might be of service to him in his chosen profession the following also is clipped from his reminiscences, which show that the student of former days was far more bellicose than the student of today:
"For years I served gratuitously as steward of the Phi Delta mess," General Funston wrote, "and kept the price of table board down to $2.50 per week, thereby acquiring a reputation as a financier that I have not been able to keep in later life. One of my fraternity brothers, F. H., had an incident where Oklahoma He had from time to time dropped deprecatory remarks regarding the lack of variety in the food served at our table, and kept up this form of amusement until one day just after dinner we strolled out into the street and without any preliminaries entered into a kicking and slugging match with our peers, and by residence with the faces of scandalized spectators. This encounter settled nothing; but after that anyone who felt moved to reflect on the quality of canned goods or coffee purchases for our mess, relieved himself of his feelings in the secrecy of his closest."
"We knew he never would be a student," said Dean Olin Templin this morning. Dean Templin was a professor in the University and a candidate for his master's degree when Funston was in school, and he knew him as a friend and as a student. "He always found things unusual, and whenever he heard a scuffling of feet he was in the middle of the crowd, to see what the fight was going to be about. He was never unruly, but he loved adventure. He was aggressive, persistent, and he had a good head that got stuck in his teeth. He was faculty. He was never afraid of anybody or anything, and 'impossible' was not in his vocabulary. That was the spirit that put him in his prominent position in the army. He was a leader of men here in the University, and his temperament when he was young showed he would always be a man with a brawny, never loving a big talker, and a man of firm convictions."
Funston's studies in the University were confined to the things he cared most about. He knew something about military tactics and fighting before he came to the University, but never did much about military matters in the slightest he followed with eagerness. He liked the tales of Caesar and his conquest of Gaul and history always had a fascination for him. Rhetoric, however, he refused to study, although he became an interesting writer and lecturer later in his career. He showed good work, but those of the majority of the prescribed courses showed how well he liked faculty supervision of studies.
HAD A DEFINITE AIM
"He was an erratic man in his school work," said Miss Carrie Watson, K. U. librarian, who knew him well, "but he seemed to have a definite aim in his life work which later brought him so high in official circles. He was a likable young man and made many friends in the student body and faculty in spite of his perpetual practical joking."
"Funston loved adventure even in his college days," said Professor W. C. Stevens, when asked about Funston's college life. "He was a student of history and was always up on military matter. When in school here, he was enthusiastic about the army and loved to be a pioneer in the pages of history. He once told me a little story which he thought a good joke on himself. When a boy on the farm, Funston and his brother were plowing. They had a dispute and it soon became a pitch battle with clods. Their horses roamed all over the field, dragging the plows. Funston's father was just returning from town with a friend and as he neared the house he would need to a vault. That he would soon show him the finest boys in the country." Then they came to the field and saw the horses running wild and the boys in a dirt battle."
After leaving the University young Funston tried his hand at a little of everything, including botanical trips to the Dakota Bad Lands, teaching school, editing a paper, for the Santa Fe, and trips of pure adventure. He learned greatness and his even warlike temperament predominated.
When the Cuban rebellion first broke out in the late '90s, Funston went to Cuba to take up the cause of

The Daily Kansan aims to picture students of the University of Kansas, to go further than merely mertify the new faculty; to hold varsity holds; to play no favorites; to charities; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all, to serve to the students of the University.

SOUR MILK PHILOSOPHY
Better than anything else sour mill philosophy typifies the tirade that appeared in the communication column of yesterday's Kansan under the heading, "Diatribe Against Laws." Such attacks, actuated by no worthy desire and capable of accomplishing no good, do nothing but defeat the purpose of the accuser and question the writer's judgment and his conviction.
It is unfortunate that such vittu-ate, disparaging charges should be made upon the good name of the University or any of its component parts. Had any deference or condescension been exercised in presenting the criticism, or had the letter been formulated from a constructive point of view, the matter might not raise such a lump in the throats of K. U. students.
As it is, the University and those persons who go to make it up can only pass over the outburst, be thankful the charges themselves prove the absurd and narrow viewpoint of the writer, and again bemoan that ever so often some individual considers it his sacred duty to doe out such a bit of sour milk philosophy.
GET A LAWYER
You are all wrong Coach Hamilton, all wrong. You seem to feel athletics today is based upon sportsmanship and gentlemen's agreements, and therefore cannot understand the action of Coach Germany Schulz of Manhattan in breaking a personal compact.
Do you not realize athletics is suffering from an overdose of this gentlemanly stuff. What it lacks is law and this is the contention of the Manhattan coach. We need a few lawyers to draw up athletic contracts, forfeits should be posted, men should be weighed in before meets, everything possible should be done to increase the red tape and above all to do away with this gentlemen's agreement bosh. Sportsmanship is mere theory. It is absurd to believe a manager of athletics should attempt to schedule contests and dictate rules for such contests. Athletic lawyers should be employed, judges should be secured to hear controversies, the athletes should fight, the managers fight, but hang this gentleman's agreements tuff. It's all wrong Coach Hamilton, all wrong.
COSTLY ABSENCE
The Portmanteau Theater, with its winsome grace and its charming simplicity—the Portmanteau Theater, with its wonderful, yet not-so-very strange illusions—has gone! The few wooden crates which held it are no longer strewn about the campus; the actors and actresses have disappeared from our midst—and only
memory, perhaps the sweetest part of all good things, lingers. The magic of the Portmanteau Players will not soon be forgotten.
And today, hundreds of students, as they learn of the excellencies of yesterday's performances, are bewailing the ill fate or the carelessness or the overlooking of an opportunity that caused them to miss seeing the Players. They realize now—those who missed it—what really excellent entertainment it must have been.
Students were conspicuous by their absence at the performances yesterday. The Theater was brought here on the advance guarantee of several faculty members; and it was the faculty members and the townpeople—not the student body at large—who supported the undertaking. To say that the students should have turned out in large numbers is useless. If but a few more had come, Fraser Chapel would have been filled to the limit. It is not lamentable that the students did not give the theater better support. It is lamentable that they missed two such charming entertainments.
If the legislature ever arranges to house the Fine Arts vocalists within the confines of the Administration Building, one body politic is in for a terrible trimming. More classroom space would never reconcile some of the other students who have classes in the Ad building.
CAMPUS OPINION Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith in name and published without that's coming.
Editor of the Kansan:
There appeared in yesterday's Kansan, under the title of "Ditribe against Laws," an effusion of nonsensical and idiotic rot signed by a person calling himself "Everett L. Jillson." No body on the Hill ever heard of "Everett L. Jillson" before, and this may be the means he seeks to obtain "his place in the sun" and to let the University know that he has arrived. His communication shows such remarkable ignorance, is so ridiculous, so egostic, so unworthy of a teacher, so utterly wrong for Kansas that it does not deserve serious notice, and this letter is sent to the Kansan merely out of respect for the same and sensible students of the College who, unlike "Everett L. Jillson," are not in the habit of maligning their fellow students.
Among other of Mr. Jillson's inane vaporings are found the following: "Why do not the University authorities see that a lawyer is something else besides an explorer and a social irritant before he is permitted to graduate?"; "most of them are receiving a hundred years behind the times in economic and social fields and most other fields of knowledge"; "They are the source of most of the ill-will engendered in the state against the University"; "The only way society can make progress in government or social institutions is to ride over the barrier," above all to blame the better." "Most of them are attracted to the status quo ante as a man's eyes to the present style in ladies' hosiery"; "it is irritating to watch their conduct on the campus"? These, and other empty silly babbling do not come from the intelligent brain of an able, thinking man, but rather, one would be surprised at how much the mind of some crack-bladed idiot who is running amok here in a University of the State, showering anthemets upon all who incur his displeasure, when he should be confined in the Asylum for the Weakminded at Osawatime, where with God's help and the kindness of people again learn the first rudiments of politeness and civility that are the earmarks of the mentally competent.
The men with the real University spirit at this great institution, whether they hail from the College, the Engineering School, the Pharmacy School, the School of Journalism or the School of Law. The Law School. They know that the School of Law has furnished more than its quota of the brilliant men of the University. They know that the Law School has given to the University some of its greatest athletes, some of its most efficient debaters, and its most able actors. And they move on to it at lowest, the place where it was regenerated was at the Law School. And the Law School paid the bill. The Law School needs no defender from the assinine attack of "Everett L. Jillson." Long after the name of Jillson will in, sham, be forgotten, the students of the University of Kansas, the Law School will proudly raise its columns toward Mt. Oread's blue sky and thank the stars above that there are no more traitors in the student body; Kansas and the great University of Kansas repudiates all such men as they do all cowards.
One word more as to "Everett L. Jillson's" proper classification. Says this "marvel," referring to the Laws: "They are going forth upon the state to foet* a living from society. Certainly, I have come from one who has taken upon himself the labor of criticizing the University Law School, to so murder the King's English. Certainly he should, at least, have been able to write our mother tongue before he had been in his present Herculean labor.
The Law School is not perfect; it knows that fact, and it welcomes counsel and advice--but it does not seek its future, thank God, from "Everett L. Jilson," who, we must remember, is only a junior in the College and who just came here this year from Emporia.
Over at the Law School, Uncle Jimmy Green is Dean, Dr. W. L. Burdick is there, too. Also Dr. H. W. Humble, Prof. Edward Osborne, ex-dean at Washburn, and Prof. Alex Kavanagh are temporarily in Colorado. These are the man who, "Everett L. Jillson says, are giving their students training that will leave those students "one hundred years behind the times in economic and social fields and most other fields of knowledge." But, reading again after the same place last night's Kansan, I believe that I would rather go forth a "non-religious, cynical, unsocial element," *foisting* my living (whatever that means) from society, and know that I was one of Uncle Jimmy's boys; I would rather blindly follow the courses of Dr. Burdick and Dr. Humble that I had been teaching years behind the times, trusting their judgment to that of a junior in the College, strange as it may seem; I would rather keep my eyes on the on the status quo ante" instead of on the present style of ladies' hosiery, as "our hero" subly and poorly attempts to punish a young friend from a loyal student, hopes in the knowledge that I had never thrown mud at another school, that my hands were clean, that my friends were not confined to a certain school but were of the whole University, that K. U. could never say that I was a traitor, and knowing that I had never made a silly assault against me, I regard to something about which I knew nothing, than to fill the uncertain shoes of any "Everett L. Jillson" that ever lived.
The University, and the Law School in particular, have suffered from many l bills, but the University and the Law School will outlive them all, including "Everett L. J. Lillson," even as Egypt outlived her plagues.
Respectfully submitted,
Alton Gumbiner,

SELF KNOWLEDGE
The average person is too little acquainted with himself. He may know his own business, and possibly the business of his neighbors; he may know politics, manners, music, science and the arts, but he does not know
Know thyself! These two words summarize the whole teachings of the great philosopher Socrates. He recognized the fundamental value knowing one's inner self before trying to embrace other knowledge.
Man rarely studies himself. He seldom places himself in an attitude for self-reflection. Indeed, he hardly wants to survey his own character and conduct in relation to cause and effect.
Yet it seems a pity that others should know us better than we know ourselves. They are blind who think of themselves more highly than they ought to think, and who refuse to observe the mental and moral conditions in themselves for which others concern them. We are fitted neither for life nor death.
"I am Pontanus, beloved by the powers of literature, admired by men of worth, and dignified by the monarchs of the world. Thou knowest now who I am, more properly, who I was. For thee, stranger, I who am in darkness cannot know thee, but I entreat thee to know thyself."
Pontanus, an old scholar, considered self-knowledge of so much consequence that he formulated an epiphath of advice for his own tomb, thus:
"penth," says Senea, "falls heavily on him who is too much known to tqh others."
Self-knowledge enables us better to choose our vocation, map out plans, adjust ourselves to our surroundings, fit into our environments and gauge ourselves for necessary duties.—Washington Daily.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
NEO-SOUR OWL WILL ADOPT POSTER STYLE
Basketball Tournament Will Witness Second Flight of Rare Bird
Three Kansas City artists, who call themselves "Neo-phantasiationists," are responsible for the cover design which will be used on the second issue of the Sour Owl appearing March 16. The cover design represents the proverbial sour owl, done in green on a back-ground in black and white, its man-poster style of art is used. The design is unique, and is sure to make a good cover for the next issue of the University's comic magazine. George Cartilh, who draws the Woolf Brothers advertisements appearing in the Kansas City Star, designed the cover for its publication by two artists who work for the Parisian in Kansas City.
The next Owl will far surpass the November issue in beauty of design, cleverness of text matter, and originality of the "Pepper Pot" department, according to Dick Treweke, the editor. Assisted by Warren Wattles and Harry Morgan, Treweke has devoted a great deal of time to securing a smappy material for the publication. New writers and new artists have been located; and the coming issue of the "Owl" will present their efforts for the first time. Meanwhile, Walter Havelock, the business manager, and Don Davis, the advertising manager, have been busy making arrangements for the sale of the magazine, and for the work on the cover it, and they have assured the editors sufficient funds to carry out their elaborate plans.
The next Owl will appear at the high school basketball tournament in Robinson Gymnasium on March 16 and 17; and will also be sold in Convention Hall, Kansas City, at the annual Missouri-Kansas track meet The third and last issue of the year will appear at the annual MAY Fete.

GENERAL FUNSTON DIES
IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS
(Continued from page 1)
liberty for the natives against their Spanish oppressor. He fought valiantly with the native forces until the United States declared war on Spain when he returned to this country. He enlisted immediately in the 20th Kansas regiment and was given the rank of colonel. His regiment took Philippe, Philippine governor. Funston saw much active service, and later made a name for himself by the capture of the famous Philippine rebel, Aguinaldo.
As a cool, level headed, commander and a brave fighter Funston had few equals. He was always modest in his efforts. His energies were always high, but going out some new adventure rather than advertising the ones he had seen.
NOT A WEST POINTER
Funston was not a West Point graduate, having risen from a soldier of fortune to the highest rank in the United States army. Before the capture of Aguinaldo Funston was Brigadier General of the Volunteers, but in 1872 he escaped and him to the same rank in the regular army in recognition of the capture. Despite this rapid advancement the usual jealousy between West-Pointers and men who have risen from the ranks was entirely absent, and the man who was appointed to go on an expedition with General Funston.
The rank of major general did not come to General Funston as rapidly as had been anticipated by many of his friends. Several times during the administration of Roosevelt he requested to major generalship over the head of Funston. The advance finally came under the administration of Wilson in 1915.

Council Grove is Making Investigation, Under Direction of University Professors
the townspeople themselves are making the survey, under the supervision of a few experts. Prof. D. G. Patterson, of the department of psychology, has examined 600 school students and 120 mental tests designed for survey purposes. Professor Elmer, assistant professor in sociology, has been managing the committees. Local committees were organized to investigate different problems of health and community welfare, have established constructive agencies, remedial and corrective agencies, population and vital statistics.
The data compiled by these committees is being arranged for a community exhibit to be held March 7, 8, and 9. Charts, maps, and statistics from this exhibit, and people may see for themselves the existing conditions.
"The data collected by the citizens is not as accurate as if experts had collected it," said Mr. Elmer. "However, the city itself will receive grown慰 by allowing the people to do the work themselves."
In connection with the survey, the University Extension Division has given a series of educational lectures. The benefit of the work is shown by

Messages commending Yale's spirit and in favor of preparedness were received from President Hadley, Sen. George E. Chamberlain, Gen. Hugh L. Scott, Hudson Maxim, and Capt. Robert M. Danford. Five hundred Yale men are enlisted in the Connecticut Guard, 200 in a "Coastal Officers" Training Corps, and 2,266 in the Red Cross.

KANSANS PREPARE FOR GAMES WITH MISSOURI
Coaches Have Hopes of Tying With Tigers and Aggles for Valley Championship
TEAM LEAVES TOMORROW
Last Practice Held Tonight-
Players Confident of Defeating Their Ancient Foes
“On to Missouri” is the battle cry of the rejuvenated Jayhawker quintet which came back in championship season with the Cornhuskers, Saturday night.
"If we don't win both of those games it won't be because we didn't fight," one of the regulars summed up the Jayhawker prospects in the two-game series with the Tigers tomorrow night and Thursday night at Columbia. The coaches and players leave tomorrow morning for Columbia. The squad will be selected tonight after practice.
Kansas still has a good chance to tie up for the valley championship is the team takes the two games from Missouri. Coach Stewart of New York plays the Angels and Tigers will spit the two-game series at Columbia, March 5-6.
The Jayhawkers must take two straight from the Tigers who in turn must split with the Aggies if Kansas is to finish in the first rank. In that case the Jayhawkers, Tigers, and Aggies will all tie up for the Missouri Conferenceference championship providing all win the minor games of the schedule.
Coaches Hamilton and Clark have not given up hope of a tie for the championship. Both remember how football dope was upset last fall and that the Kansas team K, U, had won from Nebraska and seemed to have the valley championship safely tucked away. They still have hopes that the Jayhawker quintet will come back with a win. They will be in fighting yet displayed this season.
The comeback of the Crimson and Blue goal-tossers in the last Nebraska game has rejuvenated the hopes of the Jayhawker fans, and every one believes that the Jayhawker quintet is going to put up one of the hardest fights of the season. The Jayhawker regulars, with the exception of Gibbens, rested last night after their third top condition and after a light signal and goal-practice tonight should be in fine form.
Gibbens, Kauder, Woodward, Lindsay and Wilson with Mandeville and Davis from the freshman basketball squad held a fast scrimmage with Coach Venne's Haskell Indian goalcayers last night in the Haskell gymnasium. Gibbens and Kauder played the forward positions, Woodward center, while Lindsay and Wilson played the guard positions.
The Indians put up a hard game and hold the Jayhawkers to a two-point margin in the first half. During the second half the Jayhawkers advanced their lead to six points, Mandeville replaced Gibbens at the beginning of the third quarter by in for Lindsey seven minutes later. Thermer also replaced Williams, Haskell left guard at the beginning of the second half.
SPORT BEAMS
The Emporia Normals want to have an outdoor track meet with K. U. this spring. They think that they have a good chance of defeating the Kansas team in an outdoor meet. The Teachers would be strengthened by the return of Sites in the weights, hurdles, and dashes while Lockman is said to be better in the longer hurdle races than indoors.
Cross, captain of the Normal track team, was again the star for the Normals in the meet with the Aggies Saturday.
The Oklahoma Aggies will meet the Normals at Emporia tonight in an intercollegiate wrestling contest. There will be five events, the contests being classified according to weight. The team's senior summum to be held here the last of this month, in which the wrestling is part of the program.
The management of the K. C. A. C. meet to be held in Convention Hall March 3, is planning to have conditions favorable for establishing a new record by Joie Ray, a distinguished reputation. The present words mark for the two mile is held by the English runner, Alfred Shrubb, but Doctor Reilly, athletic director of the K. C. A. C., believes that Ray can break records in competition. Therefore he is planning to have two miles run against Ray.
Coach Hazel Pratt announced yesterday that the swimming pool will be open for women every Thursday afternoon at 2:30 and 3:30. Women who wish to try out for the big class swimming meet in March are espec-
ally urged to practice in the pool at these hours.
There is a great shortage on lockers at present according to Prof. Charles B. Harrison of the department of physical education. He is getting reports from his classes of the fellows who have left school, and anyone who knows of an available locker should report to Professor Harrison at once. Several of the lockers are being used by two persons.
The wrestling mat in the west end of the gymnasium has just been recovered, retufted, and top-apposed with a Wilton Brussels rug. It is now in fine condition for all prospective wrestlers who expect to compete in the gymnastic meet which will be held soon.
Missouri is having a hard time finding a pole vault to fill the place left vacant by Bill Powell. Sylvester is the latest recruit but he has no made
HOLD RELAY TRYOUT FOR ILLINOIS MEET
Coach Hamilton Will Probably Send Ten Men to the Invitation Meet at Urbana
Preliminary try-outs for the two mile relay team to be taken to the Illinois Invitation meet at Urbana March 3, were held yesterday afternoon in the gymnasium. Eight men were in the trials, each running a half. Rodkey easily defeated Murphy in his half mile and made the best time, 2.04. Sproull was the next best man, and Murphy, Stateler, and Welsh made the distance in the same time. All made it in better than 2:10. The second and third rounds landed Welsh, but both men made slower time than 2:10. Preliminary trials for a mile relay team to be entered in the Illinois meet will be held this week Finals for both relay teams will be held the first of next week.
A pole vaulter and a high jumper will also be taken to the meet at Urbana and possibly Haddock, the freshman star dash man, will be entered if he is allowed to compete in the meet. The remainder of the track team will probably be taken to the K. C. A. C. and Glenview Games. Practically all of the Tiger track team will compete in the Kansas City meet.
Haddock did some good work yesterday, while Casey was working out for the high hurdles. He will probably take Seeward's place in the high hurdles this weekend and eleven foot mark in the last practice yesterday, but missed it by inches.
much better than ten feet so far this season. The two mile is another weak spot in the Tiger team again this year. Pittam is back in the high jump and is reported to have done five feet ten inches. Bery and Warren, two veterans, are back again to handle the weights. The quarter mile appears to be one of the strongest points on the M. U. team.
The present standing of the Missouri Valley teams is:
G.  GW.  GL.  Pet.
Missouri 8 6 2 .750
Aggies 8 6 2 .750
Kansas 12 8 4 .667
Ames 6 3 3 .500
Nebraska 6 1 5 .167
Drake 2 0 2 .000
Washington U. 6 0 6 .000
The largest per cent now that Kansas can get is 750. If the Aggies and Tigers split the games at Columbia, their largest possible per cent would be 750. It is very likely first place if the Jayhawker quintet would win the next four games with the Tigers and Washington U.
It is the opinion of Coach Stewart of Nebraska that the Tigers and Aggies are going to split the games at Columbia, March 5-6. He said the Aggies probably had a better chance would have the advantage of playing on their home court which is much smaller than the Nichols court which is much smaller than the Nichols court.

The Jayhawker women are in tiptop condition for the clash and will probably put up one of their best games of the season. Every player on the squad has come through the season without an injury. Gladys Anderson is jumping over a pitcher who has been out of the game on account of sickness, is also back on the squad and is playing her usual fast style of basketball.
The juniors held their last practice in the Robinson gymnasium yesterday afternoon from 12:30 to 1:30 before they enter the clash with the Ottawa U. women tonight. The practice was in form of a scrimmage with the strong freshman team who put up a hard fight. The feature of the practice was the excellent teamwork of the juniors and the usual ability of Joyce Brown and Dorothy Querfeld to make field goals.

"UNDER COVER"
NO.4
This being the fourth of a series of talks about that coming Dramatic Club production.
---the production.
"Under Cover" will be an exact reproduction of the original New York show which played 45 successful weeks at the Cort Theater. Every feature, even to the smallest detail, will be copied, just as it was in the beginning.
Over in Old North College, two well known scenery artists are duplicating, line for line, the stage settings used in the original production.
A "property man" that knows his business is searching Lawrence and adjacent cities for "props" that fit the show to the veriest detail.
An experienced electrician will manipulate the light effects at "Under Cover," giving real "atmosphere" to the various scenes.
A professional "stage crew" from the Grand Opera House, at Topeka, will "work" the show. There will be no "boneheads"—no unnecessary waiting between acts—the show will run smooth.
Between the acts and before the curtain first rises, the K. U. orchestra will furnish an entertaining musical program.
"Under Cover" will surely be perfectly produced. MAIL-ORDER SEAT SALE

NUMBER 99.
GENERAL FUNSTON WAS ONLY "JUST A KANSAN'
Famous Fighter Remained Loyal to Native State and Alma Mater
WAS A PECULIAR STUDENT
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 21, 1917.
Funeral Will be Held Saturday—Burial In San Fran-
Frederick Funston, major general, commander of the southern department of the United States Army, capturer of Aguinaldo in the Philippines, and famous Kansan, was "just a Kansan" always. Although he has Ohio in late years he has always preferred to be called a Kansan.
He attended the University of Kansas four years. Part of this time was spent in side-trips to Alaska and other places of adventure. He prepared for college in the academy here and then entered the University. After two years of trying he was classed as a sophomore.
"Funston would not perform routine work in the college," said Prof. M. W. Sterling this morning. "He took a flunk in chemistry rather than go to class every day and perform the experiments. In rhetoric he was a failure. But he was one of those knights, who could be toughly perfectly capable of getting his work would not do it. The love of adventure was too great."
CUT MANY CLASSES
Although Fred Funston was a lover of the outdoors and a scraper of ability, his records and personal reminiscences of friends on the Hill now show that he was no athlete. He went on to serve in many pounds. But his smallness of stature failed to keep him from subduing a bad man of Lawrence and marching him to jail. In his adventures of early life he was a botanist, an explorer, a newspaper man, a teacher, soldier of fortune, and conductor on the foot of 90 in western Kansas. Many times he put cowboys on his train.
"It was his great personality that was responsible for his success," said one professor today. "However, he had suffered many fights and fights were common with him."
DESIGN FOR SIMULTITY
The university of Kansas was always ready to participate. In the charges of the Fighting Twentieth Kansas in the Philippines the war cry was "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, K. U., Kansas Volunteers."
NEW FRAT COMES TO K. U.
And he had that desire for simple things and simplicity in all things that is so characteristic of the big men. A speech was a bore to him and to be called Major General was embarrassing.
Phi Delta Chi, Pharmaceutical Fraternity, Will be Installed Here Thursday
A charter of Phi Delta Chi, honorary pharmaceutical and chemical fraternity, has been granted to the Pestle Club, an organization which was established here at the University in 1913 and which was revived this fall. Installation of the chapter will take place Thursday and will be conducted segregates from the national conference, now being held at Lincoln, Neh.
Members of the Pestle Club are Dean Sayre, McClung Childs, Vernon Marhofer, S. W. Gibson, Albert Toolef, S. W. Gibson, Crownel Spencer, Olin Farris, E. Spencer,olin Farris, P. Swartz, Howard Skare, Russel Barnes, Roscoe Howard, John Bloombart, Joe Starrett, Jack Wilson, Clark McCoil, James Marr, and Herbert Osborne, Prof. L. Havenhill of the Michigan chapter is a member from the Michigan chapter.
The body of the late Fred Funston will be buried Saturday in San Francisco. It will lie in state Friday afternoon. Prominent Kansans wished the body to be brought by way of Topeka on its way to San Francisco but arrangements made beforehand by Mrs. Funston were that the body should be taken directly to San Francisco.
Phi Delta Chi was organized at the University of Michigan in 1881 and now has eighteen chapters in American universities.
Will Organize History Club
There will be a meeting of all the seniors and graduate students majoring in history or political science, in Room 206, Fraser Hall, Wednesday at four-thirty o'clock, for the purpose of organizing a history club. Prof. Dennis Hodgkin, Holder's Chair, lecture of "Modern Political Caricatures," including cartoons of the present war. All students interested are invited to attend the lecture.
MISS GITTENS RESIGNS:
WILL GO TO NEW YORK
The acceptance of the resignation of Miss Anne Gittens as secretary of the University Y. W. C. A. was announced by the university will take effect at the end of the term.
Miss Gittens has been secretary of in July for New York where she will study at the National Training School of the Y. W. C. A. and at Columbia University. She plans to resume study with the faculty at the institutes and other members of the university Y. W. C. A. for three years.
VANITY FAIR ENTRIES WILL BE ANNOUNCED
The Vanity Fair contestants will be announced at the Student Council dance Thursday evening, in F. A. U. Hall. "There was considerable discussion," said Brenda of the student council of the Student Council, "in regard to selection of candidates, owing to conflict of opinion among the Jayhawker board. However, twenty-seven girls were chosen, and their will will be announced Thursday night."
Names of 27 Contestants be Made Known at Student Council Dance
The contest will last two weeks, from February 22 to March 8. A vote will be allowed for each penny paid for Jayhawkers purchased and space bought in the book. Ballots may be obtained at the Jayhawker office in Dyche Museum, and the votes turned in there.
Chairs! Big chairs, little chairs, study chairs, kitchen chairs, and opera chairs! Eight thousand of them are in use at the University, according to John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds. Naturally, they become broken and crippled from hard use. "We repair 700 chairs every week," this morning. "That means an average of two broken chairs a day."
"A PENNY SAVED IS A PENNY EARNED." K. U.'s Repair Shop Believes
"Save Everything—Nothing is Useless," is the motto of the University repair shops, according to Mr. Shea. Waste paper from all the buildings is gathered and baled. Practically 4,000 pounds of paper are sold each month, from which the University realizes twenty dollars profit. Even old electric light bulbs are sold at value. The metal or the old cable is removed and sold. The platinum in each globe is worth about one and one-half cents.
"Nitrogen-filled lamps are now being used exclusively to replace the old carbon lamps," said Mr. Shea. "These bulbs contain no plutonium and radium. They can be used on tops. These are saved, and along with other brass, copper, and cast iron, are turned over to the machine shops, where they are worked over and used by the engineers. There is no market for old broken glass, so it is discarded."
Scraps and debris that cannot possibly have any use are gathered and burned in the incinerator. Old boxes are used for fuel, with the exception of a few of the better ones, which are saved for shipping and crating.
The amount of repair work done at the "doctor's office" behind the Gym amounts to thousands of dollars every week. The training is practiced by the force of thirty men employed there. Motors and electric wiring alone require the services of two men. One man does nothing except to turn off the lights, tasks that keeps him busy all the time.
One of the most severe earth shocks in the past twelve months was recorded by the seismograph in Blake Hall at 2:35 P. M. yesterday. The probable location of the quake, according to the data compiled by Prof. F. E. Kester, is on the boundless Honduras. The vibrations of the recording needle showed the earth trembled an hour and a half.
Prof. E. H. S. Bailey has been appointed as delegate to represent the Kansas Academy of Science at the Illinois Academy of Science of the Illinois Academy of Science.
The meeting will be held in Galessburg, Ill., on Friday and Saturday of this week. He will read a paper on "Safeguarding the Food and Water Supplies a Function of the Federal and State Authorities", and will in other ways represent the Kansas Academy of Science.

"DUTY FIRST" WAS THE ORDER OF OLDEN DAYS
Chancellor Marvin Observed Holiday as Washington Would Have it Done
All-University Colonial Parties A Popular Way to Celebrate Day
STATE DECLARED HOLIDAY
Washington's Birthday was observed in the early days at the University of Kansas in a fashion quite different from the elaborate all-University functions of today, according to Wilson Sterling, associate professor of business grown gray in his thirty-three years of service on the K. U. faculty.
“‘Way back in ’81,’ said the pioneer professor, as he settled back in his chair reminiscent, “when I was on the Hill as a sophomore, we had to study just as hard on Washington’s Birthday as on any other day. I remember distinctly how Chancellor Washington used to hold up in chapel and announce the impending arrival of the twenty-second of February. We students would ask for a holiday, but he would reply: ‘What would George Washington himself have us do, were he here before us?’ And then the chancellor would answer the question himself with a stern declaration of ‘Duty First!’ Our time is valuable, he would say, and weoubtedly we would have had no holiday or public program in the days of ’81. But times have changed.
"Patriotic exercises to observe the day at K. U.," Professor Sterling continued, "were instituted in *82* or 84, by Chancellor Lippincott. Classes were taught on the morning of the 22nd. Speaking and the singing of patriotic songs composed the program. Washington's Birthday was made a state holiday in Kansas about 1890, whereupon it was adored as such by Chancellor P. H. Snow.

The first all-University Colonial party was given in 1915 under the supervision of Mrs. Eustace H. Brown, adviser of women. With 1,500 present, it was such a success that it was made an annual event. A minuet was danced by students selected from the classes, —the men in red, white, and flowered brocades vying in costume with the women in hoop skirts and flowing dresses, —the Virginia red was executed by faculty members, Chancellor Strong finding it necessary to duck as he passed under low arches formed by shorter members. After the grand march, all who wished danced until midnight.
PARTY A SUCCESS
Later the Glee Club will give two entertainment for the students of the university.
the members of the Men's Glee Club, who will make the spring trip, March 6 to 13, have been chosen. They are: Milton L. Peek, Louis Morgan, L. C. Suffield, Ralph W. Grasher, Chris McGinnis, Hugh Gratz Machizzer, Ray Gaffney, Wendell Foster, second tenors; Raymond Darby, Donald Good, Charlton D. Crietrich, George F. McIntire, first basses; Clarence R. Bernard, Stevenson, William Anderson, Paul E. Smith,恩曼 and Harold R. Huntsman, accompanist.
Men's Glee Club Will Visit Many Kansas Towns March 6.18
Two thousand crowded into Robin-
son Gymnasium for the Colonial party last year. The party consisted of a program by the School of Fine Arts, reception of guests, minute by thirty-two students, grand march, and dancing. Encircled with trellised lattices, the Gym was made to resemble an old Virginia garden, with the doorway leading to a courtyard prophore. A large electric flag shone from the east end of the hall, while portraits of George and Martha Washington, enshrouded by stars and stries, looked on from the west.
PICK SINGERS FOR TRIP
G. Brandt Arnold, manager, announced that the club would appear in Emporia, Newton, Halsted and Belle Plain, perhaps Arkansas City and other cities in southwestern Kansas. We accompany a company the Glee Club as a reader.

INCOME BILL BEFORE LOWER HOUSE FRIDAY
May Suffer Fate of All Previous Amendments to State Constitutions
Members and Employees of State Boards Fight State Manager Bill
WORK TO SAVE THEIR JOBS
The Permanent Income Bill may not have an opportunity of becoming one of the three constitutional amendments to the Constitution, people of Kansas if the house continue kill amendments as it has been doing. Last week it killed every amendment measure which came up. The Income Bill will come before the house Friday.
**STUDENT ALUMNI ORGANIZE**
The team in Topeka the student will meet with a craftist of this week to draft a constitution and perfect an organization. The association was formed by students.
STUDENT ALUMNI ORGANIZE
Willard Glasco, president of the County Club Union at K. U., is also president of this organization. He said this morning the state educator organized a better organized to boost the Income Bill now that they ever have been.
The state manager bill will come up in the senate today. Members of the existing state boards, and other state agencies, will have to measure, have been lobbying against the bill this week, contrary to the wish of the present administration, which has been backing the bill. The bill passed the house by a big majority.
MANAGER BILL CENTERS POWER
MANAGER BILL CENTERS POWER
The measure concentrates responsibility but does not extend the power of state law to which present commissions have. One commission and one general head for all state institutions instead of many managers and many commissions is the plan of the new bill. A governing board with the governor at the head serving without pay, will act as a reviewing board, responsible only for the action of the state manager.
The chief aim of the bill is to give all state institutions the highest standard of efficiency possible in their administration but the financial saving to the state, it is thought, will be large.
SECOND ART EXHIBIT OPENS
Paintings of Students at Three Schools Are on Exhibition For Several Weeks
Another exhibit of art, the work of students of Syracuse University, Cincinnati Art Academy and New York School of Applied Art, has replaced the collection of American paintings which has been displayed the past two weeks on the third floor of the Administration Building.
The collection consists of paintings crayon sketches and charcoal drawings. A part of the collection is the work of students of the University of Kansas. Among them are two character sketches. It is said these compare very favorably with the better pictures from the other schools.
John M. Henry, who was a student in the department of journalism in '14 and '15 is now night editor of The Nonpareil, of Council Bluffs, Iowa. He is rapidly becoming a noted paragrapher and editorial writer. While he was now editor, managing editor, and editor-in-chief on the Kansas.
"The exhibit is one of the best collections of student work that has ever been received for display at the University of Kansas," said Prof. William M. Hekking, of the department of painting and drawing, "and it shows what may be accomplished by systematic work."
A most exciting time is promised sport followers when Jick Fast meets an opposing wrestler in the gymnastic meet which will be held in the Robinson gymnasium a week from tomorrow.
The exhibit was opened to the public Tuesday, and will be on display for several weeks. It is on a circuit of several universities and came here from the University of Nebraska.

STUDENTS SLOWLY PAY UP
THEIR Y, M. C. A. PLEDGES
Two hundred dollars of the amount pledged the University Y. M. C. A. at the beginning of the year has been paid, according to Hugo Wedell, secretary of the students. This $200 constituted the first payment. The next payment, amounting to $300, is due now, and the Y. M. officers are anticipating prompt action by the students in response to the way they collect the $1,000 bldg by alumni and it is believed it will be collected within thirty days.
LONDON EDITOR WILL
LECTURE HERE MONDAY
S. K. Radcliffe, Student of Pres ent Day Movement, Probably Will Talk of War
S. K. Ratcliffe, of London, editor of The London Sociological Review, will lecture at the University at 4:30 Monday afternoon. He came to the United States last month and has just started his lecture tour. His subject has not been announced but will probably be some phase of the war. This is his fourth consecutive lecture season in America.
Mr. Ratcliffe, who has been in newspaper work in England and India for nearly twenty years, is well known for his student and an interpreter of present-day movements and ideas. His first acquaintance with the American public was made in 1914 when he was there by a Philadelphia society.
Mr. Ratcliffe has been an editorial writer on powerful publications, such as the London Daily News, and the New Statesman. He went to India and there became editor of the leader of the Indian resistance. While there he was appointed a member of the senate of Calcutta University.
HE HAS YOUTH, VIGOR AND BLACK HAIR
But No Wrist Watch.
Gregory Kelly has coal-black hair and brown eyes, but no wrist-watch and no dimples. He has the vigor and enthusiasm of youth; but, with all the clarity and dexisiveness of conversation that comes with experience.
"I've been an actor since I was about six years old. I can't say that I ever'd go on 'the stage.' You see, I really never have 'been off'." And Gregory smiles that same whimsical, magnetic smile that is as much a part of him as sunshine is the chief ingredient of a srine dav.
"I like to play in the Portmantane because Mr. Walker, being original himself, encourages his actors to be original. The ordinary stock or road can never express the meaning of a language cannot express the true meaning of the play under those conditions. We are constantly doing some different piece of business in our plays. This gives greater spontaneity to the play and makes it both for us and 'or the audience."
Then some one said that it might be too cool to dress in the Latin Museum with the windows open and a keen wind snapping through, "Oh no!" Kelly protested, "I like this weather. I can get enough of it." He should have been born in Kansas; he has the true Kansas temperament
ANOTHER PROFESSOR TO GO
Geo. E. Putnam Resigns to Accept Position at Washington University
George E. Putnam, associate professor of economics, has resigned from the faculty of the University and will go to Washington University in St. Louis next year where he has acquired a position as professor of economics.
Professor Putnam has been teaching in the department of economics here since 1911 and has made a name for himself as a teacher of economics. He has written a laboratory book which is used extensively in the study of this subject. Besides his regular university course, Professor Putnam has been conducted Extension Division in conducting classes in economics in Kansas City.
Professor Putnam graduated from K. U. in 1907, receiving his A. B. degree. The next year he attended Yale and received his A. M. In 1911 he took a degree of bachelor of literature at Oxford.

KANSAS FIVE LEAVES TO PLAY FINAL SERIES
Two Games With Tigers and Two With Washington This Week End Season
Coura
DOPE FAVORS OPPONENTS
Kansas Will Have to Overcome Jinx of Two Foreign Courts
Conches W. O. Hamilton and Potey Clark, with nine of the players on the Jayhawker squad, left this morning at 8:10 on the Union Pacific to play the Tigers at Columbia tonight and tomorrow night.
Kansas must win both of the Tiger games and the Aggies must split their two-game series before the Jayhawkers will have a chance to tie up with the Aggies for the Missouri Valley Conference championship this season. Dope has been upset in recent contests, and in all probability there are likely to be some surprising results in the last games.
Coach Hamilton said he believed the Washington University quintet was going to show up strong in the last games on their home court, and that they are very likely to win one of the games at Jagers at St. Louis, March 9 and 10. The Jayhawks will play the Washington U. five Friday and Saturday nights.
The Jayhawkers held their last practice in Robinson Gymnasium last night before they enter the battle with the Tigers tonight. All of the players were full of vim and displayed an unusual ability to hit the basket.
The first part of the practice was given over to goal-shooting from various angles and distances, followed by a minute floor-work and passing drill. After that, in the practice, Potty Clark called the squad together for the usual family-circle talk before going into any of the clashes. His final advice was to round the track and report ten minutes early at the Union Pacific station."
The players who took the trip are: Rudolf Uhrlaub, Leen Gibbens, Harold Lynle, Captain Fat Nelson, Scrubby Leinster, Walter Kaupert, Humpty Wilson, Rook Woodward, and Adrian Lindsey.
PORTRAY COLONIAL DAYS
Pageant of All-University Party Brings Back Olden Customs
"Not a single organization has asked for a party date for Saturday night," said Mrs. Eustace Brown today. "the students' favorable attitude is a result of the influence of the Colonial Party by this mark of deference in keeping the date open."
Excellence of past All-University parties appeals to the student's idea of a good time. Patriotic pageants, featuring the quaint ladies and gentlemen of the university, dance with mining steps dancing a miniature travesty of the simple wholesome life of the Indians, will always hold a strong appeal for the imagination and heart of the loyal American. This is the life of the students of the University of Kennesaw, where a fitting way to celebrate the birth of the father of our country.
The University band will furnish the music for the last scenes. The stage setting, which is simple and informal agrees with the theme of the pageant. It will be aranged across the west end of the gymnasium.
A short reception will precede the payment and afterward they will be danced.
GRAD MAGAZINE CONTAINS
STORIES OF K. U. PEOPLE
The February number of the Graduate Magazine, now ready for distribution, contains some interesting people who have been in the University.
Miss Carrie M. Watson, our librarian, gets a story. She has served the University in that position for thirty-nine years. "In Fossil Land" is a story about H. T. Martin and his friend, John M. Krause, in the Museum. This is a resumption of "Seeing K. U." series which appeared in the magazine several years ago.
Will Give "Pop" Concert
The University band will give a popular concertWednesday, March 7. Admission is free, and J. C. McCanles, director of the band, promises a good program. There will be another concert of a more classical nature in May.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of our students further than merely printing the news by actually engaging with students; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be respectful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university and the students of the University.
NO CAUSE TO WORRY
WEDNESDAY, FEB. 21, 1917
While it is hoped athletic relations with the Aggies can continue the University of Kansas should not lower its standards in dealing with the Manhattan authorities. Contests with the Farmers have always been looked upon with favor but there are numerous schools within reaching distance who can furnish better inducements for games than our fellow Kansans, Year in and year out combats with Manhattan have resulted in victories for K. U. and the local management might be wise in hunting a little bigger game to fill the place of the Aggies on our schedule. Encounters with Big Nine schools would have a much broader appeal to the student body and likewise result in added recognition for the University. In fact, if a few more contests like our gridiron battle with Illinois were scheduled, it would merely satisfy a yearning of both the undergraduates and alumni. We need some new faces on our list.
TRY A SCHEDULE
Then follow it to the letter. Have certain hours planned to spend in Spooner or any of the departmental libraries, certain hours to spend in the laboratories, in studying at home, etc. After allotting sufficient time for each of these studies, a big surprise awaits you—there is an amazing number of hours left vacant for your recreation, much more than you would ever have believed had not seen it on paper. Most of our time is spent in thinking of the work we should be doing.
Make a schedule of your study hours each day—not a mental, flexible one, but a printed schedule—and tack it up over your table where you can see it.
There's nothing like a system, no matter whether it's in business or educational pursuits.
MAKING A "GO" OF COLLEGE.
Consider the plight of the poor, down-trodden college man! Reared and educated to ideas that he may be of some service to the world, by virtue of his superior training, he now degenerates into a mere bubble of nothingness—the butt for the jest and irony of the civilized world. He is set upon a pedestal, only that he may more easily be jabbed and prodded, ridiculed and mocked.
It was not enough that clothing manufacturers should encase him in "peg-tops," stick a sombrero on his close-cropped pate and cane in his hand. It was not enough that the advertising world should apportion him to the cigarette dealer and the manufacturer of multi-colored shoes. It was not enough that his brain should be dissected and found to contain nothing but football, dance, and song.
Nor would society drop him at that. Certainly not. It would next make of his school a "hot-bed" of crime, a corrupter of the public morals, and a destroyed of youth.
Now he is singled out as "trained human resource" and told that he will make most excellent cannon-fodder for the Germans. Surely, it is enough to slaughter him. We ask that he be allowed to rest in peace. But, no, it cannot be. Out of the efette East comes Dr. James L. McConaughey with the statement, in so many words, that he is not worth the killing. He must now be hold up as an object lesson in inefficiency, dissipation of energy, and wastage of time. Thanks, Doctor, we appreciate the last straw.
BE BROAD
They tell us that the self centerer man will get ahead, will be successful; yet no one who plans to do creative work can hope, for a moment, to succeed if he wholly self-centered. Egotism and selfishness shut out ideas, ideas that are worth while to the world, for thoughts of ourselves and our own importance are in no sense useful or helpful to others. They are not even original, for nearly every mediocritch thinks chiefly of himself and no other.
If you would know how they didn't dance in the olden days you can find out next Saturday night. They will have a minuet at the All-University party.
Here's an opportunity for some ambitious young man. Now that gentlemen's agreements do not hold good why not get out a contract blank to fill out with a young lady when you make a date for your next dance? They ought to have a ready sale.
The management of "Under Cover" will invite several faculty members to sit in the boxes as guests of honor. It will be unnecessary to advise the management that here is an opportunity to get in a few good advance licks.
The season for steak-roasts, closed now for a month or so, is opening, and round steak is again advancing to porterhouse prices.
"What a different place some people make the same place."
A POOR TYPE.
There is a certain type of instructor (and fortunately his number is limited), whose chief delight in life seems to be to pick out some individuals who are not his patron of his satire and the butt of his jokes. This is a disgusting procedure, unfair and ungentlemanly. If he said some of the things outside of the class-room, divested of his authority, the instructor would be in danger of violence—or on two feet, two hands, of he deserves such a treatment.—Daily Illini.
ALMOST TOO LATE
One of the unfortunate aspects of college life is that the average undergraduate fails to appreciate the purpose of his coming to college, in other words, fails to "find himself" until comparatively late in his college course. Perhaps he has come to college because he was sent. Perhaps, because it was just naturally "the thing to do". Perhaps, because he had not received any estimable benefits that come of a liberal education. But even if he is blessed with the latter, on entering college, the real purpose of his college course usually does not become well clarified or clearly defined in his mind until his junior or senior year, until perhaps it is too late to achieve it. The reason for this is that the student does not catch sight of the best school has to offer, does not have an educational institution, and does not receive the intellectual inspiration and incentive that association with great teachers alone can give, until too late in his college course.
Of course one obvious remedy for this situation lies in a much-needed improvement in the instruction offered to freshmen. Another suggestion we have to offer is this, that every undergraduate as early in his college career as possible consider carefully just what he hopes to get out of the student. For in college as in almost any game or occupation it is always a big help to know precisely where you are going—The Yale News.
We always have with us at the entertainment the gink who breaks out into applause whenever an assistant or stage hand appears on the stage to move the piano or remove the furniture.—Oklahoma Daily.

Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent
Also where has the man gone who waited until he needed it to get a hair-cut?
A RETRACTION
The article headed, "A Diatree Directed Against the Laws" was retracted and a notice of the same mailed a few hours after the article itself was dropped into one of the communication boxes, but this notice did not reach the user's desk in time. In m., the day the article was published.
With the price of cabbage ranging up to 10 cents a pound it is no insult to be asked, "What is that you are smoking, cabbage?"
COLLEGE AGE
A college student is a phase of existence. It comes between the "kid" and the "adult" and is so mixed up with these that it is hard to define. In years, a college student is between eighteen and "upwards." He is an individual or less than an adult, intellectual and moral responsibility and how he will act when responsibility is placed upon him no man can tell. If anyone wishes to lose his reputation as a prophet, let him try to tell what a student will become by what he is in college. If he compares himself at his own estimate, the transaction might be classed with stock gambling.
The article was not constructive; it was injudicious and should not have been written. The author admits that an injustice has very likely been done and desires to retract. What truth there might be in such charges, he admits are not his business to eradicate. He admits that he can better be employed in attending to the beam in his own eye rather than (what he might consider) a note in some one else.
College students may be classified in various ways. There are those who go to college and those who are "sent"; there are those who are getting an education and those who will become leaders in life and those who will be "hewers of wood and drawers of water" for other men.
The student has arrived at an age when he ought to be self-directing. He ought to be allowed to make mistakes and to profit by them. These he certainly will make but not more than others of his age. We must never continue to be a "kid" or whether he will be a self-directing man. There are no restraints on his assuming the status of manhood. Let it be remembered that when he does this, two things must follow. He must be responsible for the government he works in and is part in the government of his fellows. Nothing short of this will make our college the democracies they ought to be—Purdue Exponent.

"GAME AT ANY PRICE"
SAID OTTAWA WOMEN
Junior Six Lose 31 to 30 Last Night—Referee Ignores Rules
In the roughest, closest game of women's basketball ever played by the junior women, they were defeated at Ottawa University last night by the women's team, assisted by a referee who evidently did not know the rules. The final score was 31 to 30.
Throughout the game the Kansas team outclassed the Ottawa women but the K. U. team played clean basketball and did not foul, while the Ottawa six fouled repeatedly by holding and overguarding, thus breaking up the juniors' teamwork with the opposing defense in high school球队, disregarded all rules of basketball and would not discuss rules even when protests were made.
The score at the end of the first half stood tied, 12 to 12. Sara Tran and Joyce Brown started the game at forward, and in the second half Kansuook Mook Miss Tran's place. The Kansuans then took a spurt, but were soon slowed down by the persistent holding of both Ottawa guards. The Ottawa forwards and coaches played basketball, and the golf shooting good.
At one stage of the game Dorothy Tucker, the K. U. captain, called time out, and while she was off the court the referee, put the ball into play and Ottawa scored a field goal. He also asserted that the goal should count. He allowed the Ottawa team to overcrowd the Kansas women when the ball was out of bounds. At every protest the referee would not look up any pain in the rules but would say, "I'm referee! I'm running this game."
This is the first defeat of the junior team and they do not regard last night's game an official defeat. The Kansas games played a wonderful game, as did captain Dorothy Tucker, running center. The three Kansas forwards played a good passing game, and made nearly every shot they had at the goal, when an Ottawa guard was not holding.
The line up of the junior women's team follows: Joyce Brown, Sara Trant and Dorothy Querbford; forwards: Daniel Fischer, Dorothy Tucker,乔婉, running center; Ruth Endacott and Nell Liebengood, guards.
SPORT BEAMS
The Jayhawk goal-tossers will play their last game of the season Saturday when they meet the Washington University five at St. Louis.
The Nebraska five is scheduled to play the Ames five at Ames tomorrow and Friday night.
The Kansas Aggies will not have any Missouri Valley games this week but are scheduled to play the Washington U five games in the second round and their last games of the season with Missouri the following Monday and Tuesday.
The six new electric hair driers in the gymnasium work overtime on Monday and Thursday, the days when the women do their swimming in preparation for the women's swimming tournament to be held here the last of March. Many good divers are being found daily.
A party of eight K. U. women drove to Ottawa last night to see the basketball game between Ottawa University and the Kansas junior women's team.
Up-date the Aggies probably have the best chance to win the Missouri Valley Conference championship. The lions are to take two straights from Kansas and then two straights from the Aggies to get away with the first place.
After the Varsity practice last night in the gymnasium, the freshman quintet played a fast game with a new combination five consisting of Potsy Clark, Julius Neal, Willie Stevens and Stevenson from the Jayhawker squad. The latter five had a considerable edge on the first year goal-tossers.
The feature of the scrimpage was the lightning floorwork and goal-shooting ability of Today, who is敬 being as Illinois greatest athlete.
Wrestling and boxing are the principal attraction on the men's side of the gymnasium every afternoon. Jick Fast, a star half-back on the football team, seems to be the champion among them. The commitment is to get two men about his size to try to put him on his shoulders on the mat.

GYMNASTS TO MEET HERE
Two Kansas Schools Come for Annual Triangular Contest March 1
The triangular gymnastium meet between the Kansas Aggies, the Normals, and K. U. will be held in Robinson Gymnasmium March 1. Prof James Naismith, of the department of physical education, has been working hard for more than a month getting ready to compete. C B. Harrison, of the same department, is working with the wrestlers who will be in the meet.
There will be five events in the contest. Three men are entered in each event. First place in each contest counts five points, second place three, and third place one. The final winner of the wrestling counts five points. The Jayhawkers count the meet last year at Emporia.
Feats on the horizontal bars, paralleli bars, tumbling, the horse, and wrestling are on the list of events. Jensen, Bell, Malmus, Fast, Foster, and Easterday have been doing the best work in gymnastics this season. Fast and Easterday appear to be the best wrestlers out this year.

Running Track to be Laid Permanently—Trials for Illini Meet Monday
Seats and stands which have been used for the basketball games on the main floor of Robinson Gymnasium were removed yesterday. This will give more room for work in the pole vault, high jump, and shot put, as well as in the dashes. The running boards on the lower floor which are used for the rest of the indoor season for the rest of the indoor season, and the work of taking them up every day for the basketball practice will be done away with.
All of the distance men did only light work yesterday afternoon on the oval track. Most of the running done was only to develop wind and stride. Several new men were out doing work the distance events in the last practice.
Try-outs for the two mile relay team to be entered in the Illinois Invitation meet next week will be held in the Gymnasium, Monday, and the mile relay trials for the same meet will be held next Wednesday. Crowley, Rustenbach, Davidson, and Casey were doing the dash work in yesterday's practice. McCarty, the baseball coach, started the dash men.

Baseball practice for the battery men will not be held in the gymnasium tomorrow afternoon according to Coach McCarty, so the next practice will come at two o'clock Friday afternoon.
The coach's biggest worry at present for making a championship team out of this year's material is the lack of an experienced catcher. Loren Weltmert, the star receiver of last year's nine is out of school and is teaching in the Junction City high school.
The catchers for this year's nine will have to be developed from the material which reports for the early spring practices which began in the Robinson gymnasium this afternoon. Coach McCarty is very anxious for him, who has left back of the bat and who is eligible for the Varsity nine to report to him at the gymnasium at two oclock, Friday afternoon.

Resolutions were adopted by both houses of the state legislature Tuesday morning, requesting the War Department to allow the body of the famous Kansan to be brought to Kansas and to lie in state for a day at the State House. This was found impossible, however, and Kansas has honored the dead hero by lowering all flags to half mast.
$10,000 FOR STATUE
The Kansas legislature yesterday passed a resolution for adjournment tomorrow at 11 o'clock, at which time a program will be held in the General Funston. At this program the major general's salute of fourteen guns will be fired by gun squads from Battery "A" of the Kansas National Guard. Chas. F. Scott of Iola and Charleston ended of the program will deliver addresses of eulogy.
A bill has been introduced in the senate which would appropriate $2,500 for a bronze statue of General Tomoka be placed in Memorial Tonkea.
Senator Wilder S. Metecalf, who was a comrade of General Funston in the Philippine campaign, is chairman of the senate committee on military affairs, and is reported as stating he will make an effort to have the appropriation increased to at least $10,000, and to have the statute placed on the state house grounds at Topeka, instead of in Memorial Hall.

Dean Templin Replies to Anonymous Article About Faculty In New Republic
OBJECTS TO CRITICISM
Miss Regina Woodruff, graduate student in the department of zoology, has been appointed as research assistant to Professor Kofoid, head of the department of zoology in the Department of Zoology. Woodruff's duties will be to assist Professor Kofoid in his studies upon Protozoa.
"Faculty meetings at the University of Kansas are similar to those of any other deliberative body. They are of a purely democratic nature and are open to the public. In all my experience in educational work, I have never heard the teacher be a sweet manner. I would wager the one that wrote the New Republic article is the worst of the lot."
Miss Woodruff is the third student from the department of zoology at U. C. to receive recognition of hisort. Miss Irene McCulloch, alsoissst. Miss Gail MacLeod received their special training in zoology under Miss Nadine Nowlin.
REGINA WOODRUFF MADE
ASSISTANT AT CALIFORNIA
And the faculty? Well, they have read the article and have seen the light. At the regular monthly meeting yesterday, Prof. C. A. Dykstra, of the department of history, acted as official interpreter and read their mistreatment and shrewd commentary presents it. It is said that some of them forgot themselves and laughed out loud, calling the statements absurd.
The foregoing is merely an expression of the views of Olin Tempelan, dean of the college, in regard to an article written for the last number of the New Republic, by a college professor, condemning faculty meetings as trivial, undemocratic, and disrespectful to the student body.
Remington Keilogg was appointed an assistant in vertebrate zoology at the University of California last fall.
Partly cloudy tonight and Saturday,
not much change in temperature.

Aside from the humorous part of the program routine business was transacted. Then students were recommended for degrees. New courses were proposed by the departments of Journalism and Zoology, but no action was taken towards installing them.
INCOME BILL GOES TO SENATE TODAY
Friends Making Desperate Fight and Feel Confident of it Passing
MANAGER BILL TO HOUSE
Senate Passes With Amendments and Returns to House for Approval
The Permanent Income Bill for state institutions will come before the Senate at Tepoka today. This bill if passed will give the University a permanent income, and plans could be made for the future without being hampered by the present uncertainty in appropriations.
The measure was defeated two years ago, by a close vote, but friends of the bill are making a hard fight for its passage at this session and most of them feel they have no power. The County Club Union has been active this winter in trying to get students to present the matter to their senators and representatives.
MANAGER BILL 10
The state manager bill, another measure meant for University, will likely come up for passage today. This bill abolishes the three present governing boards and substitutes in their stead, a board of five members appointed by the governor. This book serves as a board of review for the conduct of the state manager who is selected by the board. The bill does not increase the power of the state manager over the power of the state board. The new bill provides for only one commission and one general head for all institutions instead of having many commissions and many managers.
RECEIVES SENATE APPROVAL
The bill passed the house and was sent to the senate, where it was passed and approved; but amendments to it in the senate make it necessary to send it back to the house for approval of the amendments.
One of the amendments which was added to the bill seriously crippled it. This amendment changed the board from a nonsalaried one to a salaried body, allowing each member $3,500 a year. The object of the enemies of the bill was to place the commission under a salary that strikes out the government longer entirely. The amendment for paying the administration board simply creates four soft snaps for office holders, without giving them anything to do.
MANAGER BILL THIRD CHANGE IN FIVE YEARS
A oesperate fight on the bill was made by its enemies who declared that was a form of the one man rule, but the Senate in the senate by a vote of 25 to 11.

Expect House to Fight Changes Made by Upper Chamber
SENATE ADDS AMENDMENT
The third change in five years in the form of administration under which the University and other state institutions have operated, is proposed by the state manager bill which passed the senate yesterday. Several radical amendments were tacked on to it by the Senate, and it is thought there will be a hard fight before they will be approved by the house.
For several years the state institutions were under the control of the state Board of Regents. In 1911 a law was passed providing for the present system of the state board of administration and the board of control, which the state manager bill proposed to abolish.
WOULD SAVE $300,000 A YEAR
The bill as passed by the senate provides for a board of managers, consisting of three men appointed by the governor, each at a salary of $3,500 a year. The governor will be an exofficio member. The board of managers is empowered to employ a general business manager without any specified limit as to salary. The house bill provided a salary of $5,000. The business manager will act as general supervisor and purchasing agent. The state accountant has written that such a provision will save the state $300,000 annually. The senate amendment provides that the manager must have lived in Kansas at least a year prior to his appointment.
PROMINENT STUDE FORSAKES GIRL
TO BITE ON OLD FIRE JOKE
GOVERNOR FAVORS MEASURE
The bill is designed to take the administration of public institutions out of politics, and it will automatically abolish several political jobs in the state. Governor Capper is a strong advocate of the bill and appeared before the senate to urge passages that would make it more sensible move made in the history of the institutions which it would effect.
Chancellor Strong expressed no opinion on the bill this morning, saying it was too indefinite as yet. "If it becomes a law, it will be the third form under which we have worked in the last five years. We can only work under the laws that are given us by the legislature."
SECOND ART EXHIBIT HAS MANY K. U. PRODUCTIONS
Photographs of sculpture work, charcoal sketches from life, and designs of jewelry and ceramics are displayed. Water color paintings of water lilies, porcelain decorations two schemes, and magazine illustrations add to the interest.
K. U. is well represented in the second art display now on exhibition on the third floor of Administration Building. The entire showing is composed of student productions; Syracuse University, Cincinnati Art Academy, and the New York School of Applied Art add to the collection.

Co-Ed, Supposedly Left Waiting, Turns the Trick and Gets Last Laugh While Enjoying Other

Dance
It happened at one of the many extremely pleasant fraternity parties given in honor of Washington's birthday Wednesday evening, when every fellow has his best girl and is enjoying every minute more than the one just passed and regretting every second wanted. A certain well known Alpha Tau received a hurried telephone call late in the evening saying that there had been a fire at his home and that he was wanted at once. He hastily made arrangements for a brother, also attentive and much in the favor of the young lady, to care for his date during his absence; and more hastily denoted his hat and left for home. Shortly after a second call came, and a nervous feminine voice asked, "Has Mr. ___ left yet?"
HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS TO MEET HERE IN MARCH
The Fourteenth Annual Conference of Kansas High Schools and Academies will be held in Lawrence, March 16 and 17. This conference will be under the supervision of the School of Education of the University of Kansas. The program for the two days consists of a series of study programs and lectures by teachers in the schools and colleges of the state.
Some minutes later the gentleman in question returned to the hall, angry and excited, only to find his date very content to finish the evening in the company of the other young man. Suddenly he had a happy thought. He called up a young lady—a freshman—with whom he had neglected to break a date for the party before making another engagement for the same dance, and asked the landlady if he might speak with the girl; but was informed that she was happily attending another dance and with another man. Thus was he twice disappointed in a girl. This caused him to band the receiver on the hook and return to his date, who wondered at the cause of his delay. The party still went on it ceased to be the center of pleasure for many curious minds, since so many more interesting things had taken place. One especially disturbed mind belonged to the young man who had also made two dates for the Sophomore Hop and has as yet not broken either. "His said that 'he who laughs last, laughs best.' At least the girl at the other party says 'tis so.
An event of state wide interest is the annual basketball tournament for the state high school championship, which will be played at this time. The game will be given in Robinson Gymnasium, Saturday, March 17 for all delegates.
BRYAN WILL DELIVER ADDRESS TO SENIORS
Noted Orator Has Accepted Offer to Give Commencement Address
William Jennings Bryan will give the commencement address at the University, according to an announcement made Saturday by F. R. Hamilton, head of the Extension Division. The address, which will be the third by Mr. Bryan at the University, will be given on Wednesday morning, June 6. Mr. Bryan spoke at the University in 1913 when he was a news reporter. Walter Wiley on another occasion he delivered an address to the University Y. M. C. A. On both occasions Mr. Bryan spoke in the Gymnasium.
SAYRE REVISES STANDARDS
In securing Mr. Bryan for the commencement address, the University authorities have secured one of the country's foremost orators and a man who will probably interest University students more than any other man who could have been secured for the address. Mr. Bryan is a graduate of Illinois College at Jacksonville, Illinois, and was valedictorian of his class. In the last twenty years, he has been before the public more than any other man in the country and of the country. For the last few years Mr. Bryan has lectured all over the country on peace. He was not always, however, so strong an advocate of peace. In 1898 he organized the Third Nebraska Volunteers and served as a colonel in the Spanish-American War.
The State Board Recommends Change—Will be Presented to National Committee
Dean L. E. Sayre, of the School of Pharmacy, presented to the State Board of Health yesterday his proposed revision of the standards of spices. The board recommended that the Standards Committee, of which Dean Sayre is a member, confer with the Washington and secure its ratification and adoption. After this conference the Board of Health will act upon the revision during its annual meeting in June. The proposed changes are of a technical character. The per cent of ash is reduced in all spices except ginger, the percent of volatile extract is raised in spice and other changes are made free from adulterations. Such changes in standards are made necessary by the changes in the production of spices.
820 ADDED TO LOAN

HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE?
Students Indulged in Every Form of Recreation From Motoring to Sleeping
"I would simply die if I had to sit in school a day like this," explained a fair co-ed, as she with two others strolled into a soda dispensary.
In fact with the thermometer registering seventy-five, yesterday was an ideal day on which to celebrate Washington's birthday. Strolling to Woodland and Cameron's seemed to be the most popular form of recreation. From this the means of celebration included everything from dancing to overhauling Fords, horseback riding, lined with motor cars all day, and even night for motoring.
To keep in spirit with the day, a company of boy scouts shouldered small flaps and hiked eleven miles. Also there were a few who slept.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate Life of the University ther than merely printing the news and then more than merely holding the varsity hold; to play no favorities; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be brave; to be wise; to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.
A REAL JAYHAWKER
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1917.
Always a fighter in everything he undertook; manifesting a red-blooded spirit which endured him to his school associates and, later in life, to his military companions; loyal to the core to every cause and friend; considerate of others and quick to extend assistance to those in need—Frederick Funston was a real Jayhawkers admire.
The University of Kansas feels keenly the loss of one who probably occupied the most distinguished position won by any former student. At the proper time the University no doubt will honor his memory.
LUCK
"It is better to be born lucky than rich," is a proverb to the truth of which the vast majority of men give unqualified assent. The old pagan notion about fate is not dead, it lives, aye, and exercises a mighty influence over many a man's lift. Who has not met members of that vast army of pessimists, who are loud in their denunciation of the world, who declare in bitter tones of gloomy despair, that fate has always been against them, that they have never had a fair chance in the battle of life, and the hundred and one other pet phrases of that noble body. Again, do we not daily meet light-hearted, and light-headed, optimists who are idling away the golden hours of youth—"just waiting for something 'soft' to turn up," as they express it. Popular opinion and tradition has it that all great discoveries have been made by mere chance. To the same cause is attributed the success or failure of human undertakings of every kind. Such is this manin for attributing things to chance that many men, seemingly of sane minds on other points have come to regard the universe and all its belongings, the product of chance.
This imbecile notion about chance, fate, luck or whatever you choose to call it, is the cause of many failures in life. To quote Emerson, "All successful men have agreed in one thing, they were causationists. They believed that things were not by luck, but by law. A belief in causality, or strict connection between every trifle and the principle of being, and, in consequence, belief in compensation, or that nothing is got for nothing—characterizes all valuable minds, and must control every effort that is made by an industrial one." These stories about great discoveries, great fortunes, great names being made by chance are purely apocryphal. Persistence in effort and concentration of energy are the weapons with which the crown of success is to be obtained. When asked how he was able to achieve his discoveries, Newton replied, "By always intending my mind." Yet if we were to believe popular tradition he discovered the law of gravitation, by accidentally seeing an apple fall.
It is not given to many to go to be unknown and wake up famous. A man usually reaps what he sows, nothing more, nothing less. Energy—the spirit of do and dare—creates a “chance” for its possessor; then spiritless pigmies around him cry out: “Oh who couldn't do well with such a chance.”
The moral of it all is easy to see,
isn't it?
DON'T FUSS WITH CO-EDS
The glory of old Michigan University will be like that of the sinking sun, if a good many of the students "don't quit stiffening with the co-eds." "Fussing," says Mr. Dunne, Senior Law student, and an son of an ex-Governor of Illinois, "threatens to lower the standard of Michigan, both in student and in teacher, so students should assert their right to be called Men of Michigan by shunning that 'swirling deluge of perfume parties, tepid tides, and parlor pastimes.'" Fussing is the University term for associating with the fair sex, more especially on the women. At Illinois they have to beg the fair dames to postpone their teas, so that the men can come to football and other practice. Wisconsin used to be the most woeful foe Michigan had at University College. It is a mediocre. Why? Because she now has over 2,000 co-eds. In Northwestern University the men are so wild females that it cannot take its exalted place in the college world. Shall Michigan descend to this rule of the skirt? Men, show that you are *men*. Leave the women alone?" -Ex.
THE PROFESSOR SPEAKS
Gentlemen, this course in English history which I am going to give you will bore me as much as it will bore you. I wrote these notes over ten years ago, so that if any of you have notes taken by former students, you can read even the jokes and jeux d'esprit before you come into class. I don't expect to know any of you personally. My笔触 will be final examination papers. Nevertheless, I shall be willing to recommend you as your preparatory school teachers at the close of the year. I do this to accommodate a bureau of employment conducted by the college. The recommendations are read by those in authority, and I want them to sound correct. My last lesson shall now begin to read the notes, and I feel sure that you all will忘簟-mindedly take down erroneous notes in your usual illegible handwriting—Life.

THE FIRST TIME
She was a young thing of perhaps fourteen summers, with short dresses and blonde hair and blue eyes. She sat at the central table of the east row in the library the other morning and was deeply interested in telling her classmate about an exciting experience she had had that morning; so she did not know that she was disturbing the quiet senior who was so busy writing at the opposite side of the room, because that a boy had just been in the act of asking for her for an engagement while they were in class that morning, and the instructor had asked him to recite just before he got through asking.
"Oh, look," she said, excitedly, to her companion, "there he comes. Let's be studying something." So they each hastily grabbed a book and proceeded to scan the pages while they punched each other in the ribs with their elbows. One had an arithmetic and the other a physiology, which plainly showed them as belonging to the Prep department. Ah, Ah, another awkward sort of fellow, like one who has grown too fast and has just discovered that he has large hands and big feet, and doesn't know what to do with them. Under one arm he highly tucked three or four books and a big, red tablet. In the other hand he carried his cap. It never occurred to him to hang it on the rack. He was seeing things, and probably thinking them tool. First he stopped at the magazine rack; he didn't take his hands turned seventy them over; his eyes were on the girls. Then he wallied near by to the rear and began inspecting the book racks.
“Tee bee,” went the girl. “I'll bet he comes back.” And he did. This time he stopped by her side and then him bumped in a chair after nearly falling over it.
He seemed rather embarrassed at his sudden baldness and seemed to be hunting for something to say to re-
conversation. He followed the following conversation took place:
He's "All right, then, be ready." Orange and Black. I should say so-Orange and Black.
He—"Say I can take you to the next Saturday night?" (This happens now.)
He—"It's nice weather, ain't it?"
She—"Yes"
Purdue is one ready for the general adoption of the honor system. This is the unanimous opinion of members of the Student Council and members of the faculty committee on dishonesty as expressed at a conference held to consider plans for eliminating dishonest practice if possible, and of improving methods of dealing with dishonesty. In opening the discussion Prof. H. C. Pefer outlined the situation as follows: "Although scarcely realized by students the number of cases of dishonesty on which we are forced to pass judgment is astonishing. The committee believes that better conditions be enacted." Without eventually find a system suited to Purdue condition and I am convinced that this system, whatever it may be, must be based upon a better understanding between students and faculty."

Play of Surprises Will Have Correct Setting for Experienced Cast
A wide-awake play with snap anp punch, one given by a cast chosen by competitive try-out of seventy-five people, and one that will follow the minutest detail of the original New York Playhouse, which is offered in "Under Cover," the play that is by the Dramatic Club at the Bowersock Theater February 28.
"The story is crammed full of action and surprises," said Professor MacMurray this morning. "The plot is not unaveled until the last, and it

has never failed to thrill the audience. This year's production, in my opinion, will set a new water mark for University dramas. I have never worked with a better college cast—and I have directed a lot of them. All the people have ability and experience and they fit their parts."
Ada Dykes, who appeared in the "Witching Hour" last year, will take the leading role. Frank McFarland and Otto Dittmer will have prominent parts in the play. They appeared together in "The Man From Home" two years ago. Helen Clark, who will be the lead vocalist of Staff of Laughter, last year, will interpret an important part in the play. The comedy role in "Under Cover" will be carried by Alton Gumbiner, author of "Coping the Grapes."
Over in old North College the scenery for "Under Cover" is being prepared by two scenic artists. They are duplicating, line for line, the original New York production in three complete settings.
"The curtain is going up at exactly 8:15 o'clock," declared Professor MacMurray. "Those coming in late will not be ushered to their seats until after the first act. Heretofore this rule has never been enforced in University productions, but it is going to be this time."

ALL UNIVERSITY URGES MONTHLY CONVOCATION
"Why not have a convocation?" That is a question that many students at the University are asking. The last all-University convolution was held before the holidays and, according to Miss Minnie Moodie, secretary to Chancellor Strong, no date has been fixed for one in the future. Miss Moodie explained that University officials would be expected to announce a convocation for February, since Merchants' Week, the special convocation for women, and the holidays in honor of Lincoln and Washington came in this month.
Band, Dramatic and Glee Club Entertainments Would Vary Formal Program
Convocations should be held at least twice a month, and students
100
But the students seem to feel that there should be a convocation at least once or twice a month, despite the fact that other things are going on "Nothing can take the place of experience" and the consent of the sophomore class, when asked his opinion in regard to the matter. "We cannot expect to retain the K. U. spirit if the students of the different schools are not given an opportunity to meet together occasionally and feel that they have an interest in their school." Without this opportunity there is certain to be jealousy and clamishness developed within the different schools. There ought to be a healthy University spirit pervading the entire campus, but this can never be as long as we don't attempt to separate groups each striving within itself for its own interests.
It seems generally agreed among the students that convoction should be held regularly in spite of other things that might intervene, but not because they are supposed to convoction should be scheduled. Wint Smith, football man, when asked his opinion, stated that he would like to see class starts at 8 a.m., and have half an hour each day, from ten until ten-thirty, given over to chapel. "That is important," said Smith, "because a day a day is ordinarily wasted," said Smith, and would give that opportunity of meeting together which is so necessary to develop the University spirit which K. U. is rapidly losing." Smith would make the conference more memorable, and then more of the recreational spirit. "The students want more entertainment and less singing of the doxology and repeating the Lord's prayer," according to Smith, "and if given what they want they will turn out for a large number as they now turn out for the conversions that are held."

should have more part in them, according to Mona Clare Huffman, president of the W. S. G. A. Practically the same idea was expressed by Alton Gumbler, senior law, who least once a month, and a part of the meetings turned over to the different classes and student organizations. Warren Wattles, chairman of the social committee of the junior class, would give the Bander, Glee Club, and the Club a part in the conventions.
So the opinions run. Some hold one idea, and some another, all agree that some sort of a convocation is needed to unify the student body, and all agree that such meetings should be not more than a month apart.

TIGERS KILL K. U. BID FOR CHAMPION TITLE
Jayhawkers Drop Two Critical Conference Games to University of Missouri
PLAY PIKERS TONIGHT
Season
Two Contests With Washington Five at St. Louis Ends Season
The Jayhawker quintet was eliminated from the race for the Missouri Valley Conference basketball championship Wednesday and Thursday in the Rowehill gymnasium by the scores of 24-20 and 38-15.
FIRST GAME CLOSE
The game was a nip-and-tuck affair from start to finish with the Tigers leading with a margin of two points in each half. Kansas started at one considerable lead in the first few minutes of play, but during the latter part of the half the Tigers struck their stride and overcame the Jayhawker's lead. The half ended with a victory, ending at 12:10 in favor of the Tigers.
The first game was fast and exciting and was played before the largest crowd that has turned out to see a baseball game at Columbia this year.
The Jayhawkers took another spurt at the start of the second half and held the Tigers to an even game. First the Tigers would lead for a minute or so and then the Jayhawker quintet would jump into the lead. Kansas held a two-point lead with only two minutes to play.
In these last two minutes of play, the Tiger five took a wonderful spurt, and Shedarl, Campbell, and Captain Williams bagged a field goal each in rapid succession giving the Tigers a four-point lead which Kansas could not overcome. The game ended with the score standing at 24-20.
UHRLAUB and LASLETT STAR
Rudolf Uhrlaub and Scrubby Laslett
showed up the best for Kansas.
Uhrlaub made ten of the twenty
points for Kansas by bagging one field
basket and eight free ones out of a
possible twelve. Laslett was next
with two field baskets.
Captain Fred Williams, the star it, the Missouri-Kansas games here, was the greatest point-getter for the Tigers with three field baskets and six free throws. He was excellent on ball, right forward, but next, by caging four field goals.
The Tiger five came back strong in the game yesterday afternoon and put up a comfortable start to finish, the final score being 38 to 16 in favor of the Tigers.

Lefty Sproull, former K. U. basketball star, was trying his hand at hitting long goals from the center of the basketball court Wednesday. Lefty averaged one out of three at this distance.
Several men were working out for tennis in the Gymnasium this week.
The sophomore gymnasium class meeting at four-thirty has been turned into an esthetic dancing class. Practically all of the second-year music classes are busy working on the dancing class, which is directed by James B. McNaught, c17.
The sport writer on the Ottawa Herald says: "The Ottawa girls were somewhat outclassed in teamwork, and one goal shooter on the visiting team, Querfeld, who did not play the first half, was brilliant, but she was pretty well covered after a few minutes of play. However, she succeeded in getting seven field goals in the last half."
The next big events in women's athletics are the interclass swimming meets. Every woman in the University who wishes to try out for the meets should report to Coach Hazel Pratt at once.
The warm weather yesterday afternoon again brought out the "baseball bugs" and they appeared throughout the student section of Lawrence. Two of the baseball enthusiasts were actually seen playing with a rubber ball. Coach McCarty is expecting an all victorious baseball nine this year.
The Jayhawker quintet will play their last two games of the season against the Washington University St. Louis, tonight and tomorrow night.
Kansas is now out of the race for the Missouri Valley Conference basketball championship, and the race is now between Missouri and the Aggies. The two teams are about evenly matched and the probability is they will split the two-game series at Columbia, March 5 and 6.

TRACK MEN ARE BUSY PREPARING FOR MEETS
Twelve men have been entered in the Illinois meet at Urbana, March 3, but probably only six or eight men will be taken on the trip. The men who will make the trip will be selected according to their relay teams will be the mainstay of the triad which will take the triumph.
Athletes Entered in Contests at Urbana and Kansas City March 3
There will probably be twenty-five men entered in the K. C. A. C meet on the same date. Any freshman who does unusual work between now and the meet will be taken to Kansas City by Coach Hamilton and entered in the meet as unattached. Last winter several freshmen from K. U. Won places in this meet. There will be two handicap events, the Ivy League and the Men's Golf shot. Respect will always a feature of this meet and Kansas will have a relay team picked from the men who do not go to the Urbana meet that night.
Vernson and Fiske, two Varsity football men last season, were out tossing the shot Wednesday afternoon. Burch also did some good heaving. All three averaged around the same distance. Pattinson is going higher every day in his work at the pole vault.
Try-outs for the two mile relay team which will be taken to the Illinois Invitation meet will be held Monday afternoon in the gymnasium.
The Varsity distance track men spent Wednesday and Thursday running easy halves. Wednesday the men were running to get their correct stride and wind. Thursday practically all of the distance men attained in 2.10 and the runner's time varied from 2:00 to 2:12 for this distance.
Miss Bernice White, of Mankato, is spending a few days in Lawrence visiting with friends at the University. Miss White was a student at Loyola University, but was compelled to stop on account of the ill health of her mother.
Rice is still handicapped on account of the arm which he injured several weeks ago. Trewele has been resting up on account of a badly sprained leg he injured in practice just before the cancelled Aggie meet. Seward was out doing some hurdling Wednesday afternoon.

Captain Smee, Fischer, Vorhees, Bailey, Baker, and Bell came out for the twirling position, while Carter, O'Reilly, and Allen took the receiving positions.
Halleck Craig and Constant Poirier, K men on last year's pitching staff, were not out for practice but will come out the first of the week, according to Coach McCarty. There is plenty of coach for more pitches and catchers.

3. If you like the show and think that everything was fine and that it was as good or better than you would expect from an amateur company, don't be afraid to say so. A kindly criticism will have just as much as show one that tears the production to shreds.

BASKETBALL SEASON IS CLOSED AT K. U.
Jayhawker Five Win the Last Game of Season at St. Louis Saturday
WON NINE; LOST SEVEN
Three of the Four Games Player Last Week Were Lost by Ragged Playing
The Jayhawker quintet closed their 1917 basketball season Saturday night by winning the last game with the Washington University five at Louis. The score of it 19, The Freeze 24, in favor of Washington University.
None of the Jayhawker goal-tossers were up to their standard, according to Coach Hamilton, and their team-work and goal-shooting ability were lacking during the entire trip. He said, however, that the first game with the Tigers at Columbia was also might, was a fairly one, and the team played more team-work than at any time on the trip.
HAD NO LICENSE TO LOSE
Hawkey Hamilton said that the Jayhawk quintet had no license to lose the first Washington University game. The principal reasons he gave for the Jayhawk defeat were that the referee was totally incompetent, and that Scrubby Laslett was forced to play in three minutes of play on personal fouls.
In the first clash with Washington, University Friday night, the Jayhawker quintet opened the scoring with a 15-foot foul out of net. Serbhavi Lalett was
a forced from the game on personal fouls and Rudolf Uhrlaub was shifted from left forward to left guard in place of Laetelle, and Kauder went in at left forward. This change proved ineffective and the Washing-ton Jayhawker lead and added a three-point margin by the end of the half.

STATE MANAGER BILL
PASSES LEGISLATURE
All Institutions Controlled by Board of Three Men and Business Manager
The lower house of the Kansas legislature passed the State Manager Bill Friday when it occurred in the senate ambediments, and the bill, which was introduced by the ministry, the Board of Control, and the Board of Corrections into one board now lacks only the signature of the governor and official publication to make it a law. The new board will be known as the Board of Administration.
The board consists of three members appointed by the governor, and the governor himself, who acts as president. The board appoints co-potive members, receive $300 per year each and expenses. The board appoints a business manager who supervises all state institu- tions now under control of the three boards.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 26, 1917.
This is the third change in five years in the form of administration for the University and other state institutions. For many years the University was under a Board of Regents, but since 1986 it under a board of administration. The business management will act as general supervisor and purchasing agent.
The bill is intended to take the administration of public institutions out of politics and bring about a more efficient management. It is estimated that the bill will save the state over $300,000 annually. The measure is not meant to be a proposal and in urging its passage before the senate he called it the most economical and sensible move in the history of the state institutions.
Illinois Gets New Buildings
The University of Illinois is at present erecting three buildings and a fourth is being remodeled at a cost of $30,000. These buildings represent one of the most expensive gram planned for the next ten years. K. U. students who have seen the buildings on the campus at Urbana say that the finest building here re-

CAMPUS BEAUTIFICATION
"The long needed and much talked of 'campus beautiful' has at last begun to look like a reality," said Ms. Ridley, the department of botany, this morning "Sufficient funds have been appropriated by the board of administration for completing many of the projects and work will begin this spring."
The firm of Hare & Hare, landscape gardeners, of Kansas City, have completed blue prints of the plan, and they have been accepted by the board. Trees and shrubs constitute the larger part of the improvements. The first section to be improved extends from the library south to Blake Hall, and west to Snow Hall.

Faculty Holds "Club Night"
Will Dance the London Taps
A new dance, the London Taps, recently made its appearance at the Saturday morning dancing class. It denies that the dance is a celebration with which the performer taps the floor alternately with heel and toe. The latest terpichiorchean creation is said to be a cross between the Pigeon Walk and the Kangaroo Hop. The victim first approaches his partner in a defensive position, and, after some preliminary sparing with the feet, canter forward a few steps, where the process is repeated. The recipient requires good audition, and good judgment of distance, as a participant with the heel by either participant might entail serious consequences to any stray pedal member which happened to be lingering in the vicinity.

APPROPRIATION BILL PASSES STATE SENATE
Provides $225,000 to Complete Administration Building But No Salary Increase
NO FINE ARTS BUILDING
Attempt to Provide Separate Home for School of Music Failed by Vote of 14-17
The appropriation bill for state educational institutions, which includes $225,000 for the completion of the Administration Building, was passed by the state senate Friday evening after several hours of spirited debate.
The total appropriation for the University amounts to $1,554,000, an increase of $287,402 over the amount appropriated by the 1915 legislature.
PROFESSOR.
This amount, however, may permit an increase in the salaries of University professors. Senator Wilder S. Metcalf moved that an increase of $22,000 for each year be allowed for increasing the salaries of University faculty. He called attention to the fact that many prominent faculty at the University because of more attractive offers from other universities.
In this he was seconded by Sen. James R. Plumb, of Emporia, who charged the senate with allowing increases to other state institutions, while objecting to adequate approvals for the educational institutions.
ALL SCHOOLS NEED INCREASE
Sen. W. F. Schoob, of Topeka, also favored the increase, and in a speech urging it called attention to the increased attendance at all state schools.
Sen. P. Kihmall also favored an education sufficient to increase the salary of K. U. faculty members.
Sen. James F. Malone of Herndon warned the senate that if the increase was allowed K. U., he would ask a proportional increase for all state schools.
Sen. C. E. Snyder, of Leavenworth, a member of the ways and means committee, then tried to change the University building appropriation by allowing the Senate for the Administration Building and allowing $100,000 in addition for a Fine Arts Building. This move was strongly supported in speeches by Senator Snyder and Senator Nightingale, who was finally lost by a vote of 14 to 17.

FAMOUS CONTRALTO TO SING TOMORROW NIGHT
Tilly Koenen is Ranked With Schumann-Heink by Many
Critics
Students of the University will have an opportunity to hear a noted singer, Tuesday night, when Mme. Tilly Kooen sings the fifth concert of the University Concert Course in Robinson Gymnasium.
Mme. Koenen's voice is a contritio, of great power and range, but with this she has an exquisite pianissimo, as well as a fluent singing the lightest and most delicate songs. She deserves ranking with Schumann-Helnik in the opinion of many musical critics. Her range exceeds that of her fellow composers' note of which she has perfect control.
Mme. Koenen's program will consist of songs in German, French, and English. She will translate the German and French songs into English before singing them. Dean Butler, who heard her singing in Topeka a year ago, says that she is imitative, and that these songs will prove to be one of her favorites. Also on the program will be five Danish children's songs, which have made Mme. Koenen famous as a singer of this class of music.
Mme. Koenen will be accompanied by Louise Linder, pianist. These two artists are inseparable, as Miss Linder's piano is not part of the companion of any other pianist.

JAYHAWKERS ALL
The greatest chantishment that a man can endure is to have done the outrage; and there is no man who is so rude in the whip of his own repentance—Nenech. Works of
Every once in a while we are acorded an opportunity to enjoy a general get-together; to rub elbows as a student body; to discard convention and formality; and in short, to simply be general all around good fellows. On such occasions we encounter a spirit of democracy and fellowship which, although characteristic of the University of Kansas, is only prominent by its presence, at the few All-University functions students enjoy each year.
The All-University party Saturday evening was one of these events and those students and faculty members attending, benefited by the experience. The student learned there are hundreds of mighty fine fellow students whom he does not know but whom he has now resolved to meet. Faculty members not only formed new associations within their own ranks but likewise found some timber for friendships among the students. And best of all, the entire gathering in renewing its allegiance to the University was reminded of the opportunity to unite for a common cause—that of making the University of Kansas a highly democratic, efficient institution, actuated by sincere motives, inspired by lofty ideals, and propelled toward its goal of success by a loyal band of Jayhawkers; devoid of faction, student, or faculty lines.
What has become of the professor who dogmatically asserted two years ago that there was not the slightest possibility that U. S. would be drawn into the war? He has apparently followed the ground hog's example. We all live and learn.
THE USUAL SUCCESS
Now that the last basket has been tossed and the final "TWO" has thummered its way to every minute corner of Robinson Gymnasium, the University takes occasion to congratulate the team which carried the Crimson and Blue this year. We probably have had better teams; the Kansas spirit, no doubt, has been more rampant in former years; and possibly, even the coaching has been surpassed in bygone days; but regardless of all these suppositions, the season has been a success and K.U. will have no occasion to ever regret the showing made by its 1916-17 representatives upon the basketball球场. Beginning with the first game the team showed a determination and spirit of fight which is characteristic of all good Kansas teams and which never has failed to attain for them a honored position in Missouri Valley athletics. Throughout the season the team kept
steadily at its work, not only upon the court but in the classroom, and as a result its chances were never endangered, as in former years, by eligibility.
However, others than the players are deserving of praise. As years roll by and Kansas continues to retain her coveted position in Valley basketball circles the real value of Manager W. O. Hamilton, who besides his ponderous duties as general manager of athletics, takes time to coach the basketball and track teams becomes evident. No other coach in the conference is so handicapped with overlapping duties and yet Coach Hamilton's achievements, since coming to K. U., have not been duplicated, nor is any coach establishing a record which will seriously endanger that of the K. U. mentor. It is therefor, fitting for William Oliver Hamilton to figure prominently in the praise and congratulations extended to our basketball machine of the past season.
The old saying that an individual is 'between the devil and the sea' should now be changed to "betweer the submarines and the airships". And while speaking of the subject university students are in somewha the same situation in regard to ventilation. If they open the windows o their class rooms they freeze and i they leave the windows closed the smother.
It's all right to be a gentleman; but if you're too all-fired gentle you're a sissy.
The wages of sin is death. But they're high enough to make the graffers wealthy, just the same.
Maybe the German raid in the South Atlantic was just a South Sea Bubble.
The present legislature would not only make Kansas "bone-dry" but it is also trying to make it "smokeless."
CAMPUS OPINION
Communication should be staged as evidence of good faith but names it will not be published.
Editor Daily Kansan:
May I beg the privilege of using your columns to bring to those students of the University of Kansas who are planning to do their preparation for professional practice next year, post position of the present position of the Yale Law School?
A few years ago Yale adopted the rule followed by most of the leading law schools of the country of admitting as candidates for its degrees on college or scientific school of approved standing. This measure resulted, of course, in greatly reducing the numbers in attendance. At the same time, instead of reducing the teaching staff, every effort has been made to increase the variety of instruction has lately been improved in an extraordinary degree.
This fall a new dean, Thomas Walter Swan of Chicago, has been appointed. Mr. Swan is a graduate of Yale College and of the Harvard Law School, with some teaching experience, who leaves a successful career as a practising lawyer because university work appeals to him. Shortly after Dean Swan's appointment Professor Wheeler of Chicago, President of the Association of American Law Schools, was appointed Professor of Law, Mr. Hohfeld, a brilliant graduate of the Harvard Law School, was soon after drawn from Stanford University.
Four other eminent teachers have been appointed this month. These are Professor Ernest G. Lorenzen of the University of Minnesota, a graduate of Cornell, and former student in the universities of Paris, Heidelberg and Gottingen, with a degree in law, attorney and teacher; Professor Edmund M. Morgan also from the University of Minnesota, a graduate of Harvard, and author of legal works of importance, with experience both in practice and teaching; Professor Edwin M. Borechard, formerly Law Librarian of Congress and an author of several foreign Law; and Professor Henry W. Dunn, who was at one time dean of the University of Iowa Law School, and who comes to Yale after 13 years of successful practice in Boston. Besides these newly appointed men, such distinguished teachers as Judge Rogers, the retiring dean, and William the retiring Taft continue their services.
Tuition in the Law School is $150 a year, and other expenses including books, board, laundry, room, heat and light, are estimated at $375.

There, little Soph, don't cry!
You have to be good. I know.
There, little Freshie, don't cry!

All life is bitter and bum.
The outlook seems gloomy and drear,

And your imagination can be 'boo'y.
But you may take it all over next
There, little Soph, don't cry!
There, little Junior, don't cry!
You running the College, 1 know
This noe and the writer are bum
This poem and the writer are bum.
And all the rest of the world is
Your dates keep you in a mad race (Ah' a man and a girl are going
Never mind, maybe they haven't a case.
Your dignity must be supported, I know.
There, little Junior, don't cry!
There, little Senior, don't cry!
And grades and credits are very uncertain.
Jergieek; too, if you should
Temper; cool, if you should
The cool after construction so hirh
So brace up, and don't get the blues.
There, little Senior, don't cry!
The students are lazy, I know, But you are so accomplished
In comparison they have got to seem slow.
You must also remember it's your life's work.
There, little profs, don't cry!

Most of us can remember the time when the college student was a gaily dressed person who early adopted a pipe bearing strange insignia and alabaster hair. The bulldog, stopping occasionally to vent a tush rah-rah for something.
With competition keener in every line of business, it behoves the college student to get a few of the things that others are missing. The man who blunders 'his way through the university along with hundreds of people' is through. For that reason, the "fore-banded person" will ask himself if he is making the most of his time.—Michigan Daily.
A College Student?
What is the reason? We think it is that the college student has ceased to be quite such a rarity. Everybody goes to college now. There are tens of thousands of degrees handed out every June, and the number is continuing to all this, there is something that most of us should keep in mind.
There has been a mighty change in this person. He no longer feels under obligation to live up to the comicsupplement ideal. The tendency with regard to personal appearance seems more important in a mood, and that other great complement of college life, hazing, is also disappearing rapidly.

BASEBALL CANDIDATES TO WORK THIS WEEK
Coach McCarty Will Get Battery Men Into Action at
Once
The battery men of the baseball squad did not practice in the Gymnasium Friday afternoon, as planned, because of the Colonial party decorations. According to Coach McCarty, in some good workouts this week.
Several new players probably will be out for the practices this week, according to the coach. Halleck Craig and Constant Poirier, members of the pitching staff last year, will come out for their first practice this season. The loss to the ballfield season Starlin would give any member of the basketball队 a doubt a chance to come out for the preliminary practices.
Coach McCarty is anxious that every person who is eligible for the Varsity and who intends to try out for one of the battery positions, should report to him at once. Only eleven men reported for the first time that he should belittle the battery squad should start out with twice that number.
Practices will continue every afternoon from two until four o'clock in Robinson Gymnasm until the weather permits out-of-door practice. The probability is that the practices will continue in the Gymnasm until after the basketball tournament here March 16 and 17.

Inns, Bulline Hackman
What is culture?
It is hard to find two persons who will answer this question alike, according to Prof. Ernest Horn of the University of Iowa, who has just completed a study of the development of connection with a problem in education.
"One would be justified in speaking of the 57 varieties of culture," Professor Horn declares. "Every individual means by culture the things and conditions admirable in people. And often the comparisons are diametrically opposed.
"No work can be branded as not cultured," he says. "We in a democracy cannot tolerate for a moment
the idea that culture personified has white gloves, dress suits, and manicured finger nails. No conception which tends to favor the individual in a dress suit as over against the man in overalls, can receive the slightest consideration. The work of the world must be done; some of it is more pleasant to do and is better rewarded financially. That, however, does not make the former the more cultured."
In examining the various references to the subject of culture by modern writers, Professor Horn has arrived at the conclusion that the words culture and civilization have almost the same meaning—Daily Iowan.

SIX TRACK MEN WILL MAKE ILLINOIS TRIP
Hamilton Thinks Urbana Even Means More to Team Than Kansas City Meet
K. U. track men have been entered in the two, four, and half-mile relays at the Illinois Invitation meet at Urbana, March 3. The Jayhawkers will run in only two of these events. Rodkey, Sproull, Stateler, Welsh, Murphy, and O'Leary are probably the men who will be taken to Urbana.
Coach Hamilton wants to be as bain as possible with the manager of the K. C. A. C. meet which will be held on Monday. The team is in good opportunity that the Kansas men have had to run in the indoor Illinois meet. Between the two meets the Urbana meet easily means the most for a team to compete in. The Kansas City meet was later changed to February 26 but was later changed and a conflict of dates has resulted.
Besides these six men, two or three others may possibly be taken if their work this week justifies it. Davidson, a man who has served in the man are entered in the 75-yard dash. Treweke is entered in the high jump and will be taken if he is in good shape. Battinson will probably be taken as well. A hurdler or two may make the trip.
Casey and Small did some good tossing of the weights last week. They were putting the shot nearly forty feet. Groene made excellent time in the two mile Friday, making the distance in 10.18. The record for the distance on the Robinson track is 10.12, made by Grady in 1916.
SPORT BEAMS
The next big athletic event on the Jayhawker calendar is the triangular gymnastic meet between the Aggies, Kansas Normals, and Jayhawkers, to be held in Robinson Gymnasium Thursday night.
One of the features of the meet will be the wrestling matches. Jick Fast, star halfback on the football team, and Easterday, lightweight champions of last year's meet, will represent the Jayhawkers in this event. This event alone should make the meet a success.
Besides the wrestling matches, Bell
and Jensen, star Jayhawker athletes on the gymnastic apparatus, will do their hair-raising stunts on the apparatus. Dr. James Nalsmith said he was impressed by the best student performers on the gymnasmatic apparatus he ever saw.
The women athletics will be confined to gymnasium work and exercises this week. The next big event on their schedule is the interclass swimming meet, but the swimming pool is being cleaned up and repainted so that there will be no swimming until next Monday.
Baseball will soon hold the center of the stage among sports. Coach Clevenger his battery men out for the first spring practice last week and from reports the Aggies are going to have a first-class team.
Coach Venne's fast Haskell Indian quintet will play their last home game of the season tonight at eight o'clock in the new Haskell Gymnasium with the Kansas Normals. Potty Clark, who referred the Haskell Indians to his team, the Indians have greatly improved over their early season form. The game will probably be fast and exciting from start to finish.
Archie Grady, star two-miler of last year, and one of the best men on the cross country team, was in Lawrence visiting the University last week. He is teaching school in Oklahoma at the present.
Tony James, captain of the 1915 football team and all-Valley tackle, was visiting in Lawrence Sunday.
Ames beat Nebraska at Ames Thursday night, 19 to 7, and Friday night, 24 to 8. U. defeated Ames on their own court by almost the same scores.
It is up to Knoxas to beat the Tigers at track and baseball after losing to the Missouri school in football and basketball.
It is interesting to note that Kansas won the last game from Missouri last year by almost the same score (10-8) against the Tigers defended K. G., 31 to 19.
The Warrenburg (Mo.) Normal basketball team won the third game from Kansas Normal last week at Warrenburg, 35 to 33. This was the deciding game, each team having won a game.

A VOTE FOR EVERY PENNY
HOW YOU SELECT THEM
For every penny you invest in the purchase of a Jayhawker or for space in the book before March 13, you will be given one vote in the Vanity Fair Contest. Thus if you buy a three dollar book you may cast 300 votes, or if you pay one dollar down on a book you may cast 100 votes. In order that every studenty may have a 1917 Jayhawker the price has been reduced to a minimum. However, this necessitates that a payment of not less than one dollar be made on each book ordered. The same system that was used last year will again be used this year, namely: that no more books will be printed than have been ordered.
THIS IS HOW YOU VOTE
When you order your book you will be given a card on which will be recorded the number of votes to which you are entitled, which will depend upon the amount that you pay down. You will fill out this card for which ever candidate you wish to cast your votes. It must then be deposited in the contest box in the Jayhawker office in Room 102, Museum. Seniors who have paid their dues may secure a ticket for voting upon application at the Jayhawker office. The keys to the ballot box will be held by Professors Arthur MacMurray and S. O. Rice who will act as tellers. The progress of the contest will be published in the Kansan on the two following Mondays, and the final results will be made known upon the appearance of the Jayhawker.
WILL OCCUPY SIX PAGES
There will be ten winners in the contest. The two highest will be given a full page each. The other eight will have a half page each. Professional designers and artists will arrange and decorate the six panels of this 1917 Jayhawker feature. Each winner will appear in two different poses, while the two highest will appear in either three or four different poses.

PERMANENT INCOME MEASURE IS DOUBTFUL
House Killed Measure as Amend ment to Other Bills Considered Yesterday
LAST CHANCE FOR BILL
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, FEBRUARY 27, 1917.
Legislature Will Not Have Time to Bring t Up Again This Session
The Permanent Income Bill will be brought up for discussion in the Senate late this afternoon. Dispatches from Toppea at noon indicated the state legislature would consider the bill, which would consider the bills with other tax measures today.
NO. 102.
The Permanent Income Bill was finally killed in the house yesterday when it was voted out of both the Tax Bill and the Budget Measure.
The Income Bill was a plan of taxation that would make it unnecessary for the legislature to spend its time and energies every time it meets in making out a budget for the state educational institutions. Instead of appropriating a lump sum for this purpose it would be provided for a levy on all the taxable property of the state.
DROPPED FROM BUDGET BILL.
NEXT BILL The Mill Tax which was directly killed last week by the lower branch of the state legislature, was revived again yesterday in that branch when it was proposed as a provision of the Executive Budget Bill. It met with so much opposition here that it was without being made a part of the bill.
AUTHOR HAD TO WITHDRAW IT
A little later it was brought up again by Senator Robert Stone, of Topeka, who resurrected the tax amendment to the constitution which was killed by the house last week. This measure known as the three-in-one amendment, was brought up on a special order, and if finally adopted would have allowed the state to enforce its own construction. It would have provided for the classification of property for taxation and made possible the adoption of the Mill Tax for the support of state educational institutions.
Stone himself, however, eliminated the Mill Tax Amendment. It had met with vigorous opposition in the house a few minutes before, when it was presented as a provision of the amendment providing for an executive budget system.
Twenty New Members Named Today by K. U. Honor Fraternity
ELECT NEW PHI BETA KAPPAS
"In view of the expressed attitude of the house toward the Mill Tax, I see no use of taking up the time of the government to authorize the author of the bill. "But I am strongly interested in getting the tax amendment before the people at the next election. I am interested in the highway管理局 but would not insist on point."
The house did not allow him to insist on the highway amendment, and the tax amendment was recommended. The proposed highway and Mill Tax amendments.
Spring elections of Phi Beta Kappa were announced this morning by E. D. Cressman, secretary of the Kansas chapter. Those honored were: Thyra Amos, Dorothy Angovee, Lily de Mare, Rita Dielman, Albert Irwin, Liona Fletcher, Luella Krehbeli, Dorothy Markham, George Marshall, Mary McKinney, James Rogers, Rachel Sanker, Cancle Swan, Iva Testerman and Mina Upton. Three members, Hanna Bessler, Nicola Pratt, and Lucia Luca, were elected in the fall, making a total of twenty from this year's class.
Officers of Phi Beta Kappa are: F. B. Dains, assistant; Helen G. Jones, vice president; E. D. Cressman, secretary; and E. W. Murray, treasurer.

BIG FIRMS PLUCK BUDS FROM ENGINEERING CLASS
Four Senior Electricals Get Positions With Eastern Companies
Four seniors in the electrical department of the School of Engineering have obtained positions with Eastern electrical companies. The University Company of Senaback, N. E. W., has three of these men, C. R. Copp, E. C. Burke, and A. R. Burt. The Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company of Pittsburgh, Pa., has employed N. W. Foster and also has induced two men, H. F. Lutz and Clarence Lynn, to work for the company this summer.
Each year these companies send representatives to colleges and universities to choose promising young men from the senior class. These men are given positions in the companies and are transferred from one department to another until they become familiar with the general work of the institution after which they are allowed to specialize, G. C. Shaad, professor of electrical engineering, expects representatives from three other corporations to visit him next month. The Western Electric Company of Chicago will send a man to interest some of the seniors in telephone work. The Toledo Light Institute offers students for street and interurban railway work.

The putting of final touches on "Under Cover", K. U. Dramatic club play to be given tomorrow night at the Bowersock, is now being directed by Arthur MacMurray, professor of public speaking. The final rehearsal for the movie this year's cast is said to be an excellent one and no efforts have been spared to make the play a success. The curtain rises at 8:15 p. m.
A stag social will be given for all Y. M. C. A. committeemen Friday night in Myers Hall. A boxing bout will be put on either between Blount and Harland or Foster and Wedell. The Y. M. C. A.

Reward for Faithful Workers
The University of Chicago has started a new tradition in Parent's play. The Maroon says that a real gap in the university yearly functions is filled in this way.
Mr. and Mrs. C. N. Riggs drove up in their car from Emporia, Sunday and were the guests of their daughter Clora Riggs, c20, at the Kappa Alpha Theological Society in Hershey, accompanied them to Kansas City Monday to see "Chin-Chin."

WAR HAS TRANSFORMED ENGLISH STATE SYSTEM
S. K. Ratcliffe, London Editor Tells of Social and Economic Changes In England
\DOPTED GERMAN SYSTEM
Present Military Rule In Britain Similar to Germanic Absolutism
"England has been completely transformed since the beginning of the war," S. K. Ratcliffe, editor of the London Sociological Review, said in his lecture in Fraser chapel yesterday afternoon. England and the United States were alike in that they were individualists and were little conscious of a compulsive state, centrifuged to the national welfare. Now England has changed completely to the state system of the continent, countries.
"England has realized that she must enter into the struggle with all her energies. The conditions are not those of the Napoleonic wars. To do this effectively, voluntary military service had to be abandoned for_commerce." In a man of military age, nineteen to forty-one, can secure exemption."
UNIONS SUPPORT MOVE
Compulsory national service in munition workshops was started under the coalition government of Lord Asquith with Lloyd-George as minister of munitions. This department had been a major employer and extended the industrial area of England. A director-general has been appointed to organize national service in other industries. All men and women between the ages of sixteen and 40 are required to work. This movement has the support of the British trades unions.
The entrance of women into the field of skilled labor has created a grave social problem. The fact that they are proving more efficient than men is not possible to deny their applications for full citizenship, Mr. Ratelife believes.
The government has control of the entire food supply in England and the sources outside, and of the metal, leather, wood, and mining industries. It will be possible for it to assume even greater authority, and this with the enthusiastic approval of the English people.
CABINET CHANGE WAS WELCOME
"Lloyd-George has scrapped the English constitution," Mr. Ratliffe said in his keen analysis of the present political situation. "His war cabinet of five is divorced from the control of parliament and from that of public opinion. He, who was the most radical politician in England, now is head of a cabinet the other members of which are conservatives whom he represents himself in the earlier years of his career. England is watching his experiment with the keenest interest and is giving him unqualified support. There has been a feeling that the old cabinet system needed reform."
In answer to the criticism that England had adopted the German system of absolute government control to defeat Germany, Mr. Ratcliffe said that the changed conditions of war times were a preparation for the development of a new democracy after the war.
INVITE HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS TO TOURNAMENT
Seniors were busy making arrangements for their commencement invitations at the check stand in Fraser Hall this morning. They are pleased with the samples shown, there being two styles, one placard and one leather.
A one act farce, "The Happy Day," will be given by members of the class in dramatics at McAllister School at the University and the Parent Teacher's Association. Members of the class who will take part are Mona Wise, Dena Soller, Elm Elmore, Nettie Brown, Eva Means, Anna Johnson, and Lucile Means.
WILL PAY SAME PRICE
FOR SENIOR INVITATIONS
Blondie Jones, chairman of the invitation committee, says the most surprising fact about the invitations is that the price is no higher than in former years, although paper is scarce.
Dramatic Class Gives Play
Gives Picture Show
Through the efforts of the Commerce Club, a six reel motion picture covering the production of cotton and worsed cloth for the market will be shown in Fraser Hall. Wednesday at four-thirty o'clock. It is a free permeable film presented by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company which, sends an expert to lecture upon the different phases of cloth production.
Entry Blanks for Tenth Annual Classic Sent Over Kansas Today
USE SAME PLAYING RULES
Women Only Admitted to Girls' Games—Trophies for Winners and Runners-up
The tenth annual Interscholastic basketball Tournament, open to all Kansas high schools, will be held in Robinson Gymnastics Friday and Saturday, March 16 and 17. The Annual Conference of High School Superintendents and Principals will be held at the University at the same time.
Fifty-four high schools, or one-seventh of the high schools in the state, were entered in the tournament last year, and Coach W. O. Hamilton and Coach Hazel Pratt predict a victory this year. Entry blanks for the tournament this year were sent to every high school in the state this morning.
USE SAME RULES
The games this year will be played under the same plans as the eighth and ninth annual tournaments. All preliminary games, up to the semifinals, will consist of two 10-minute halves without intermission in the boys' games, and a 3-minute intermission in the girls' games. The semi-finals have two 15-minute halves with a 5-minute intermission while the final games will be of the regulation 20-minute halves with 10-minute intermissions.
This change was made necessary because the tournament has grown so large that the winning team had to play five games in two days, and this was thought to be too great a strain on both boys and girls with so great a playing time. The boy's games will be played under the official basketball rules for women.
NO MEN ADMITTED
The girls' tournament will be a separate tournament and will probably be played with women officials, and with spectators restricted to women. Each girls' team must be accompanied by a woman chaperon, approved by the parents and by the principal of the school. All girls, while in Lawrence, are encouraged to add the values of the Women's Student Government Association.
Manager Hamilton said that each manager should notify him by March 10th, of the time his team will arrive in Lawrences, over what road, and if possible the number of the train, so they can meet him. He will meet all visitors and direct them to their rooms. Arrangements will be made in advance for rooms and meals.
A large silver loving cup, appropriately engraved, will be awarded to each of the winning teams in the boys' and girls' championship. A cup will also be awarded to the runners-up. Newton won the boys' championship last year, while Rosedale won the girls' championship.
CUPS TO WINNERS
The smallpox scare is apparently over and there is no further danger that the disease will spread on the Hill. Forty students have been vaccinated at the Student Hospital since the first case was reported. No new signs of the disease have appeared in the University and hospital attendants think that there is no more 'likelihood that smallpox will spread.
The boys' teams entered in the tournament last year were: Argentine, Arkansas City, Atchison, Baldwin, Bonner Springs, Burlington, Chapman, Ell. worth, Eudora, Fowler, Greeley, Holton, Iola, Kansas City, Kan, Larned, Lawrence, Leavenau, Lymond, Mackaville, Morrison, Murray, Newton, Oread, Osage City, Parsons, Quenceno, Randal, Rosedale, Seneca, Spearville, Syllan Grove, Viola, Washington, and Winfield.
The girls' teams entered in the tournament were: Argentine, Arkansas City, Atchison, Baldwin, Bellevue, Bonner Springs, Burlingame, Burlington, Elmore, Holton, Leavenport, Lyndon, Melton, Merriam, Parsons, Rosdeale, Sabetha, Sterling, and Waterville.
10 STUDENTS VACCINATED;

DATE OF SWIMMING MEET
WITH OTTAWA IS DELAYED
The date for the swimming meet between the women teams of Ottawa and Kansas Universities has not been set, according to Miss Hazel Pratt. The delay is caused by improvements on the pool.
A contest may be held later with the women's team of the Emporia Normal but the agreement is a verbal agreement. A team cannot be done. All other women's athletic contests for the remainder of the present term, will be interclass events.
CALICO SQUIRREL CAUGHT;
K. U. CAN BUY FOR $22.50
A curious specimen of squirrel has been offered to the department of zoology by William H. Stanley, of Lincoln, who captured it. It is described as having a long, white nose, white tail, lemon-colored legs, one eye glassy blue, the other black, and both sound.
Professor Robertson, of the department of zoology, desires to purchase this queer animal to determine whether he can develop a new variety of the species to the price asked, $22.50, it is doubtful whether it will be purchased.
Dykstra to Speak in K. C.
Professor C. A. Dykstra, associate professor of history, will speak on "Modern Methods of City Administration" next Sunday evening, March 4, before the Westminster Forum of the Westminster Congregational Church in Kansas City. The Westminster Forum is conditioned similarly as the Reverend N. S. Elderin has been holding here.
Mrs. James Naismith, wife of Dr. Naismith, professor of Physical Education underwent an operation a week ago Monday at her home at 1635 Massachusetts street.

Mrs. Naismith is Ill
Miss Lucy Challis of Atchison was the guest Saturday and Sunday of Dorothy Miller, c'19, at the Kappa Alpha Theta house.
DISTRIBUTORS OF "WHY ENLIST" CARDS WANTED
Cards Bearing Peaceful Motto Must Be Explained Say Army Officers
APPEARED ON THE CAMPUS
Government Charge Probably Will Be Made Against Propagandists
The local recruiting officer, Seargent Thayer, is working on the case and has a secret service man has been summoned to assist in the investigation.
Small printed cards asking, "Why be a soldier? You have nothing to gain and your life to lose," were scattered over the campus and the town district last week. An investigation immediately started by local army officer of the person responsible for the literature nothing has been found.
GOVERNMENT PROSECUTION PROBABLE
When asked this morning what state university authorities will take in the case of Officer Frank Strong said he was not involved any such literature on the campus but that the authorities would not sanction its distribution. "Even if individuals desire to express such opinion, I said Doctor Strong, 'it cannot be done on the University campus.'"
Captain F. E. Jones of Company M said the printing and distribution of such literature probably will result in a government charge against the person who distributed the cards, if his identity is discovered.
SIMILAR INCIDENT IN KANSAS CITY
A similar incident has arisen in KANSAS City where Miss Leonora Warneson has been suspended, temporarily, from the teaching staff of the city schools and writing anti-enlistment paragraphs on the blackboard in her school room, the sentiment expressed in Miss Warneson mottoes was similar to that expressed in the literature scattered over the campus last week. It is said Miss Warneson was in Lawrence last Sunday, but local army officials can find no connection with Miss Warneson and the distribution of the anti-enlistment literature.
FUNERAL OF SCOTT GRIESA
The funeral of Scott Griesa was held from the home of his father, T. E. Griessa, 545 East Nineteenth street at 2:30 yesterday afternoon. The service at the house was conducted by the Reverend N. S. Elderkin, former pastor of the Plymouth Congregational church. The Phi Kappa Psi fraternity had charge of the service at the cemetery.
Services at the Home Yesterday Afternoon Attended by University People
Mr. Griesa was a senior in the department of entomology and had a host of friends in University circles. He also had many friends among the prominent families of Lawrence. Many alumni of Topeka and Kansas City came to Lawrence to attend the funeral.
The pall bearers were fraternity brothers of Mr. Griesa. The active pall bearers were: Richard Small, Henry Pegues, John Dean, Frank McFarland, Allen Burch and Leland Thompson. The other members of the active chapter of the Phi Psi fraternity served as honorary pall bearers.
Writes for Psychology Papers
Writes for Psychology Papers
Dr. Walter S. Hunter, of the department of psychology and psychology, has a paper in the reference of Auditory Habits in the White Rat" in the February issue of the Journal of Animal Behavior.
A research paper by Professor Hunt entitled, "The Delayed Relaction of a Child," appears in the January issue of the Psychological Review.
Add New Machine to Fowler
A grinding machine has been installed recently in the Fowler Shops. It is used to grind any hardened substance to a smooth and accurate surface'. The metal is placed between two pins and by the aid of an emery wheel can be worked to a thousandth of an inch. This machine will compare favorably with anything of its kind in the Middle West.
The mining edition of the Kansan will be out next Monday. A meeting of the Geology Club and Mining Journal will be held in Haworth Hall Wednesday at four-thirty for the purpose of boosting the edition.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1917.
UNFAIR TO STUDENTS
He makek me to lie down in green pasture; he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; he lendeth me to the sage; he takes from his manse's name: Old Testament,
The University has held three convocations since Thanksgiving. Only one of these was for the entire student body, while the men and women students have each had one to discuss problems of interest to themselves. This is a fact in spite of the plan to have two convocations a month this year.
The students of the University like convocations. They want to get together for a general assembly; hear reputable speakers and show their school spirit. They have missed the convocations in their school life this year and no substitute has been offered. It is not too late for a few convocations this semester and the proper authorities would do well to consider the wants—rather, the needs—of the students in settling the convocation problem.
The church people have another reason to rejoice over the bone-dry law. There is anticipated a big rush to the ranks of the ministry, because that is the only way they can get it now.
CO-OPERATION
It is within the power of almost every student to assist materially in the producing of a Jayhawker. If you are a senior or a junior get your picture into the office right away. The same can be said of members or organizations. And these students and every other can dig up some hodak snapshots that give a flash of real college life.
Getting out a Jayhawk is not a University honor but a University job. A thousand things must be attended to and the exasperating thing is that nine-hundred and ninety-eight of a thousand things are unlooked for.
These things should be finished before the nine-hundred and ninety-eight unheard items bob up.
STUDENTS ASLEEP!
A noted man never speaks before the University but what students give a brilliant example of their indifference to worthy lecturers. The audiences are usually fifty per cent faculty members when the proportion of students to faculty members is about ten to one.
Men of ability are brought here at considerable expense to the University to enable students to hear big men while in college and yet only a handful gathers to take advantage of the offer. A large per cent of the lecturers who come here are men of rare ability and have something worth while to say. They are experts in their lines.
The latest example of the sleeping student body was Monday when S. K. Rattliffe, London editor, gave one of
the best lectures that has been delivered at the University this year, to an assemblage of not more than 350. Nearly half of this number were faculty members.
It is true that a speaker occasionally proves a disappointment but the large number who have a real message to bring make regular attendance a safe thing. The lectures are scheduled at 4:30 so that class work will not interfere with attendance but it seems to be a case of "leading a horse to water."
THOSE SHOWERS AGAIN
Once upon a time when the thing still had some elements of the humorous in it, a fellow wrote an editorial about the shower baths in Robinson Gymnasium. "When," he inquired, "is a shower bath not a shower bath?" "The answer came back: 'When the nozzle is off and the pipe clogged so that it sputters and spits and vomits all temperatures of water, and refuses to leak at times, and then cuts loose with a barrel at one spurt, and kicks the soap out of your hand and hits you in the eye, and causes you to slip on the floor and fall down. Just then a hot belch comes and you get up out of the steam and crawl away on all fours, nursing your burned self tenderly with a towel and cursing an athletic association or a gym management or somebody or other who allows such an instrument of the Devil to remain about. That's when."
That was long, long ago—and the showers have been repaired since that time. Unfortunately, however, under the combined influences of boiling hot water and the chemical properties of the Lawrence variety of the same, the nozzles on the showers have rusted out again—and the situation in the Gym today is not unlike that in the far-distant past, when the riddle printed above was first asked.
There is a remedy, of course—if the Athletic Association, or the gym management, or somebody, will only see to it.
HILLTOP PHILOSOPHY
The cranky professor is oftentimes so because of a poorly cooked breakfast.
Snap courses are like some mall-
goods: cheap all the way
around.
Nothing can be had without work-except grades sometimes.
Vice verna, grades can sometimes never be gotten even with work.
Grades are a variable quality, depending upon the professor who gives them.
Anyway, it might have been worse. We shall now be saved the trouble of having to plant ivy over the ruins of Administration Building foundation.
The Laws resent the intrusion of college students within their sacred precincts, especially women. How does one the one woman law student fare?
Some folks train themselves to be like hot-air plants, and then wonder why they are so sensitive to cold.
The students who study latest at night are usually the ones who are densest during the day.
Something can never be gotten for nothing—not even fresh air, for one must meet the angry glance of two hands. I remember every time he opens a window.
Professors who give courses with the least credit usually assign work as if theirs was the only course on the Hill.
One of the chief characteristics of satisfaction is that it can't be found in a boarding club.
Happy is the student in these days whose father is a shoe merchant.
Gusser: "Avoid nothing! Training
in 2014 or 2015 months; marriage
is for life!*
Now isn't it too bad that Congress doesn't appropriate K. U.'s building fund? "Hazard, Kentucky, with a population of 527 people," the $400 million post-office. We don't seem to be getting our share of the bacon.
Fusser: "Could I avoid this universal training by marriage?"
Pebbles of progress mark the shifting moments of a student's life. In the early years, she was new foundation that will prove the bal- valk of a successful career.

BUSINESS A PROFESSION
Business'has been rapidly approaching the learned professions in both respects. The standard of business morals has been greatly raised, even during the past twenty-five years. Business practices formerly considered allowable are now strongly condemned not only by courts and legislatures, but by business itself. Today, however, natural confidence and good faith are absolutely necessary for the conduct of business.
There are sound reasons for the growing tendency to regard business as a profession. The class of vocations usually included under the term of "learned professions" possesses at least two characteristics which render them especially attractive to young men choosing careers in these fields of these calls have in the past been generally acknowledged to be higher than those prevailing in the business world. Secondly, they have required a comparatively large ground of special training. The result has been that the numbers entering these professions has been limited and the number who has been accorded a distinction in their respective communities not granted to the business men.
The increasing size and complexity of the modern business unit has also brought about a recognition of the fact that specialized training is becoming as essential for the business man as for the lawyer or physician. The business man is not easily visible, even though it was possible, for the young man to start at the bottom in order to secure the knowledge and command of a business enterprise necessary for its management. The process is so long that before he could master all departments, the desirable skills required by the manager. The method of learning a business by experience alone has become too slow and uncertain.
Business training schools aim therefore to supply the need for men fitted for advancement to important positions while they are still in their prime, a need never more pressing at than at present. The success of business training colleges has increased more largely international in character will depend largely upon the knowledge and ability of our business men—Boston University News.
"The Blue Pencil" is the newest journalistic organization at the University of Cincinnati. The name, itself, according to the University News, explains the membership and purpose of the organization. Those who wield the unfeeding blue penil for student publications are eligible to join the club—the chief offenders, the editors of the "The University News," of "The Scribe," and of "The Cinch." They are the managing editor of "The University News;" the lesser offenders, the business managers of the three papers; and the least offenders, three associate editors, one from each staff.

The West finds Harvard without the spirit of easy democracy while Harvard men are effeminate, is the opinion of the West imbbed in the man. In a study by J. K. Norton, one of the hurdlers of the Stanford track team which went to the intercollegiate last May and stayed in Cambridge as the guest of the Harvard Athletic Association. The research team illustrated Magazine this month.
HARVARD IS EFFEMINATE,
REPORTS STANFORD MAN
"The Harvard student differs from the western man in several ways. The 'rough' is nowhere to be found and the air of general familiarity that exists in the West is absent in the eastern. The Harvard man seems somewhat more prone to superficialities, is better polished or more effeminate as you wish to call it. He holds on to his 'a' and slurs his 'r' in a manner peculiarly irritating to the westerner. While this is generally true, there are many exceptions and the westerner meets many men 'after his own heart'. Bill Bingham, captain of the track team and the engineer in the army, in one of these, and was as much a western man in spirit as any."—Daily Californian.
ONE OUT OF FIVE WOMEN IN PROFESSIONAL WORK
Twenty per cent of the women students of the university were enrolled in professional courses in the past semester. The total enrollment of women in the university is 306. Last year there were 250 women enrolled, and 18 per cent were registered in professional courses.

Women Have Aped Men
"Opportunities for Women in Journalism" was discussed by Mr. H. F. Harrington, associate in journalism. "Women have aped men too long. They should do things from a woman's point of view," was one of the suggestions made by Mr. Harrington. Journalism, he said, includes more than mere newspaper work. It comprises magazine writing, advertising special departmental work, and criticisms—Daily Illini.

Two Holidays Easter—One Memorial Day and Another
FOUR MORE VACATION DAYS
There will be four more days of vacation during the spring semester of school. At Easter, school will be dismissed two days, Friday and Monday. The other holiday listed in the University calendar is Memorial day. This comes during examination week, so can hardly be classed as a holiday in the university holiday but will come on May 1.
Mav 1
There have been fifteen days' vacation since the beginning of school last fall, two at Thanksgiving, eleven at Christmas, and one each on Lincoln's and Washington's birthday, the maximum number of holidays during the year. Every holiday falls on a week day and the Christmas vacation was extended one day because New Year's day came on Monday.
This holiday is the result of an understanding between the chancellor and the student body. At the time the students gave up the class scrapbook, the college granted a holiday and the custom has been followed for the last four years.
PROFS
AND OTHER PROFS.
How They Dismiss Classes.
Can you imagine a little womanlike professor closing a class with, "You are dismissed?" or a big powerful professor dismissing it with a nod and a wave of the hand that smiles at themselves, are their methods of dismissing classes. There is the scientifically intellectual professor who announces, "We stand adjourned," and there is then all human attention drawn to them. "Well—" when the whistle is heard.
Again there is the Prof. who is still shouting assignments as the last stude pushes out the door, and the man who keeps one eye on his watch, so that he won't work overtime. Blessed is the Prof, who will run out of something to say before the whistle blows, and rather than wait for an unsuspecting class early, and woe to the one who talks on—and on, regardless of whistles, closed pens, departing students, everything, save his own precious words. They can all be classified by their formalities of dismiss—the formal, the intellectual,

ATHLETES ARE CHOSEN FOR BIG EASTERN MEET
Two-Mile Relay Team Was Selected Yesterday—Rodkey Sets New Record
The two mile relay team to be taken to the Illinois meet Saturday was selected yesterday afternoon. Captain Rodkey, Sproull, Murphy, and Barris all making the half mile in 2.08 or better. Rodkey established a new record in the half for the Robinson track when he ran it in 2.03 in yesterday's try-outs. Conch W. O. Hamilton was shown with the showing made by the four men.
Haddock will not be taken as no freshmen will be allowed in the meet. Rustenbach will run the dashes. The best of the Big Nine runners will miss the meet, and four members, including Michigan which will make its first appearance on a conference field since 1905. Wisconsin, Chicago, Minnesota, Purdue, Indiana, Ohio, Northwestern, and Illinois will make their first appearance in the meet. Michigan, Kansas, Drake, Ames, Notre Dame, Knox, Lombard, Coe, Grinnell, and Franklin are the other schools entered in the meet. Chicago and Michigan appear to have been given teams in the meet. Three trophy cups will be given to winning teams.
Two other men probably will be taken for the three relay events in which teams have been entered. O'Leary and Welsh probably will be taken. Kansas will run only two of the three events, the four mile, the two mile, and mile relay races, is possible. The relay race is Rustenbach also will be taken on the trip. Dick Treweesk will do the broad jump as well as the high jump.
Groene made a remarkable showing in the two mile again yesterday after making excellent time in the same event Friday. "I had to work out which would have meant 9,50 for the two mile if he had kept up the pace. It is not likely that he would have made that time, but it is hardly improbable that he would have made the distance in less than 10 fitt. This was the problem, the two mile in such good time, Kansas will be almost sure of two places in every dual meet this year.
SPORT BEAMS
Interest in baseball is increasing every day. The first Jayhawker game is only a little over a month away and Coach McCarty is working out the battery men every afternoon in the Gymnasium.
The catching position probably is causing the coach the most worry. The receiver this year will have to be developed from among the new rebounders. The receivers are two of the strongest candidates for that position at present.
The Jayhawker quintet closed their schedule Saturday night and will now wait until the close of the Missouri Valley Conference basketball games there they will be on the Valley ladder. They now occupy fourth place.
The Haskell Indian goal-tossers won a rough, exciting game from the Pittsburgh Normal five last night by the score of 31 to 28. Captain Clements was the big point-getter for
Haskell, with three field goals and five free ones out of a possible six, while W. Murdock and B. Murdock, forwards, were next with five field goals and four field goals. Walker, with two free ones for his team, with two field baskets and ten free ones out of a possible twenty-three.
POSTPONE TRIANGULAR MEET
Plans Are Now Complete For Annual Contest of Gymnastium Artists
The triangular gymnasium meet between the Kansas Normals, K. S. A. C., and K. U., to have been held here Thursday, has been postponed until March 8. Coach Clevenger of theagle school wanted to have the meet on April 6, but it is probable he will agree to the meet on the eighth.
The Jayhawker gymnasium men have been hard at work for the last month and they probably will have as strong a team as the one which won the league championship in Easternday, Cameron Reed, Sam Ferguson, and Jick Fast appear to be the best wrestlers out this winter. There will be two wrestling events, one for men weighing less than 135 pounds and another for men weighing more than 140 pounds. The national tryouts will be held in the Gymnasium tomorrow afternoon.
Kenneth Bell, Bernard Jensen, and George Malm克斯 have been doing the best work on the apparatus and at tumbling. There will be four events, three of which involve the horse, and tumbling, besides the two mat events. Each will count five points for first place, three points for second, and one for fourth. Five points will count for first place in both games, and four for both in both scoring, for big, school.
The meet will be held on the main floor of the Gymnasium and indications point to as interesting a contest as any track meet.
Track Shoes Are Needed
Track shoes are badly needed by the applicants for the 1917 track team and the Athletic Association has been unable to supply the demand. More than 150 pairs of footwear from Coach Hamilton's office in the gymnasium since school began last fall. The average attendance at track practice each afternoon is less than fifty. Many of the regular men are working in old shoes, worth $60 a pair, while hundreds students have good shoes belonging to the association in their lockers, according to Coach Hamilton.
The University of Colorado library reached 100,000 cataloged volumes Saturday, marking its entrance into the select group of large American libraries, especially of the educational class. The World's Almanac for 1916 lists forty-two college and university libraries in the United States owning 100,000 volumes or more, and three Canadian libraries...Ex.

CAPTAIN SMEE CALLS FOR MORE BATTERY MEN
Only Thirteen Candidates Have Reported to Coach McCarty
"We need more pitchers and catchers out for the preliminary practices if we are going to have an all victorious team this year," said Captain George Snee yesterday in summing prospects for the 1017 baseball nine.
Captain Smee believes that he has served his time on the pitching staff and wants to play in another position. Although one of the best pitchers on the Jayhawker nine last year he also played a star game in the field and intends to go back to it, position if Carty can develop a sufficient staff.
Only thirteen candidates for the battery positions have reported to Coach McCarty for the preliminary practices. Both the coach and capita-ler were asked to give a number to report from a student body of three thousand five hundred.
Constant Poier, a member of the pitching staff last year, and Wint Smith, a K man on the football team, came out for their first practices yesterday. Halleck Craig will be out sometime this week according to the coach.
The first game on the Jayhawker schedule is only a month away and the coach is anxious that every candidate should report at the gymnasium tomorrow afternoon from two until four noon. The gym teachers daily until the weather permits out-of-door work when the rest of the candidates for the team will be called.
Theta Sigma Phi, journalism sorority, of Ohio State University, will be given full charge of the March number of the Sun Dial, a university publication. The sorority will appoint the editor, business manager, art editor, and staff from among its members.
The Phi Gamma Delta house at Chicago University was robbed of $400 last week. About the same time, during the Junior Prom, the Sigma Chi house at Oxford, Ohio, was visited by thieves who carried away $50. Now we read of robbers entering the locker room of the gymnasium at Indiana University, riffing the clothes of the basketball team, playing up a basketball court and wearing gold watches. The Daily Maroon suggests that this is the time when all good houses should lock their doors.

GO TO ILLINOIS
INTEREST IN SHOT PUT
The men to take the trip to the Illinois invitation meet on the same date are: Sproull, Whelan, Staterl, Rodkey, Murphy, O'Leary, Trewecke, and Pattinson.

He has been vaulting eleven feet this week.
Vernson, Casey, Jackson, Liggett, Small, and Haddock are the most likely weight men to be taken. Atwood will be entered in the pole vault. He has been doing better than ten feet in practice this week. Smith, Miller, and Rice probably will do the high jump in the meet.
All distance men did light work yesterday, most of them running the mile in an easy fashion. Try-outs for the mile relay team to decide which men will run the race in the Illinois meet are being held this afternoon.
CLUB WOMEN WILL VISIT K.U.
Great interest is being shown in the inter-class shot put contest which was started several weeks ago by Coach Olcott.

his remarks were entirely compli-

In other words, the new scenery painted after the original settings of "Under Cover" especially for this percussionist, will look good to the coach.
"Vessier," said the coach, "We're going to have a crackin' good show tonight. Every practice up until the last has been better than it's predecessor, and the practice last night was even better. We'll will put the show on right tonight."
"It is remarkable how the members of the cast have worked themselves into their parts.

Her sympathetic interpretation of the van Rennes group of Dutch children's songs completely won her audience. The range and power of her voice and her dramatic ability were displayed in the Van Eyken aria, Judith's Siegeslied. She is an actress as well as a singer.
The Brahms and Schubert numbers were well received. The first encore, Brahms "The Disappointed Serenader", was new to the audience. In the Kerry Dance Miss Koenen emailed the pathos rather than the humor.
A reception was held at the Mu Phi Epsilon house after the concert, Miss Koenen is a member of the sorority. She heard several K. U. students sing, among them Leah Stuart and Ray Gaffney.
Former Congregational Minister Built Up Many Friendships While Here
DR. ELDERKIN LEAVES TODAY
Dr. Noble Strong Elderman preached his last sermon at Plymouth Congregational church February 25 before leaving to take up his new work at the Second Congregational church in Park, a suburb of Chicago. Doctor Elder and family left today. They spent part of the time visiting friends here.
Doctor Elderin has been pastor of Plymouth church since September 1, 1910. He exerted a great influence among Lawrence residents and students of the University. He has been the pastor of "shut-ins" as well as those who are able to attend church. For several years he has had telecommunications arrangements whereby his services were to be able to attend church. By this means invalids have been hearing services regularly at Plymouth church.
Doctor Elderkin is an ardent pacifist and from his pulpit has opposed militaristic movements. He specially endeavored to touch student problems and has been popular among college students. As a result, was made to keep him here but the campus church prevailed. Several names are being considered for his successor.

Students in the class had not been having the best of luck with their work and the air was frequently dented by violent swearing. Finally one student obtained a paddle. A plan was formed to paddle the first man to swear in the class.
The honor of a prophet in his own country lies in the hands of his friends. "Cum Laude, mostly Laude" is the appellation his friends have given to him. He is a member of the department of Biology, since he received his Ph.D., Cum Laude.
The purpose of the book is to study the burden of social insurance critically. The publication was submitted to the Graduate School of Cornell and will part of the requirements for Professor Woodbury's Ph.D. degree.
Announcement has just been made of the marriage of Floyd Livengood, P18, and Gladys Dissinger, c18, which occurred in Kansas City January 1. The couple moved to a draw drawn from school, and will live on a farm near Carrolton, Missouri.

EIGHT FIRE ESCAPES ON 13 K.U. BUILDINGS
Fraser Has Four; Marvin Hall Two; Chemistry Building Has Only One

Buildings in Less Danger Than Students, Thinks Superintendent Shea
Would you know what to do and where to go if a fire should break out some day in a building in which you were in a class? Have you gained enough calmness of mind to get out of a burning building and help some one else out? These are a few of the questions coming to the mind of the person when he considers the lack of sufficient fire-escapes on University buildings.
The thirteen buildings on the University campus have eight fire escapes. Fraser Hall has four of them, the appache that leads from the assembly hall and the other two provide means of escape from the third floor and no higher. The fourth and fifth floors have only one escape door. The two, 'staircase leading from them.
The Chemistry Building, in danger most of the time from chemicals stored there, has a single fire-escape on the west side. To reach this ladder one must take a long step from the window.
SNOW HALL HAS LADDER
Snow Hall, condemned by the state and University architects as unfit for use after next year, has a ladder on the east side stretching from the third floor to the ground. Only the third floor is served by this ladder.
The other two escapes on the campus are built on to the Engineering building. One escape is at the building and the other at the east end.
CHEMICAL TANKS IN HALL In the other buildings are hand chemical tanks, if the halls is small fire equipment, consisting of fire house and ladders.
That the equipment for fighting fires on the campus is better than the method of preventing injury to the students is the opinion of John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds. The Lawrence fire department can make the run to the Hill in emergency power plant that pumps water from Potter's Lake has produced a pressure of one hundred eighty pounds, enough force to throw water over any of the buildings.

ZOOLOGY CLUB INITIATES
EMULATE ZOO INHABITANTS
After the initiates had evolved out of the animal kingdom, a paleontological spelling mate was conducted by Professor Herman Douthitt, and Miss Nadine Nowlin discussed, "Spirochaetes and their relation to man or their importance to pathology."
Complete recognition has been given to the Kansas City, Kansas night school by the University of Kansas. Next year full freshman year credits will be given to students taking night school work through the extension department of this institution. This will be the first time a high school in Kansas will have the opportunity of completing the first year of University work at home.
The initiates were: Terrel Whitehurst, Constance Poorer, Gladys Rice, Opal Holmer, Neva Ritter, Rebecca Cooper, and Helen Moore.
KANSAS STUDENTS GET

The Kansas City night schools have been established for eight years. Additional work has been added and the number of students increased each year. This winter, 2,803 are enrolled. The commencement exercises will be held at the Kansas City high school auditorium Friday夜.

PAY THIRD Y. W. PLEDGE
TOMORROW IN FRASER HALL
Tomorrow is the third and last payday for University women to settle the pledges made to Y. W. C. A. Durham on Monday. Some member of the finance committee with blank checks will be at the check stand in Fraser Hall all day to receive back pledges of November salary and the pledge due March 1.
According to Virginia Lucas, chairman of the finance committee, few women have neglected to pay pledges as they were due and it is more convenient for members of the committee to receive money rather than have a set place to receive money rather than to have a few women go for the amount.
ORCHESTRA WILL GIVE ATTRACTIVE PROGRAM
Classical and Popular Numbers Given In Fraser Tomorrow Night
A concert of classical and popular selections will be given by the University Orchestra in Fraser Hall tomorrow night March 1, at eight-fifteen o'clock.

FORMER STUDENT MAY HAVE
DISTRIBULED SMALL, CARDS
A clue being followed by the local recruiting officer today indicates that a former student of the University is responsible for the distribution of the job, and thus may post last week. The authorities have found that the ex-student, a freshman in the College last year, came up from Kansas City last week but the extent or purpose of his visit is unknown. In lawrence at the present time.
This clue adds to the belief that the distribution in Lawrence is in some way connected with the anti-enlishment trouble in Kansas City. While attempting to apprehend the persons responsible for the violence, the authorities are trying to prevent any further distribution of similar cards on the campus.
PROF. HELLEBERG WILL
SPEAK TO POLITY CLUB
A general working plan for the study and analysis of social and political problems will be the nature of the lecture of Prof. Victor E. Helleberg given at the Polity Club meeting Thursday night.
"It seems better to give a lecture that will aid the students in working out their own views and opinions, than it is to give them personal views and opinions," said Professor Helleberg. "It is impossible to discuss all the important topics of the day at these meetings, so it seemed to me that a lecture of this kind would fit almost any subject."
WHAT PER CENT OF YOUR FRIENDS ARE PARROTS?
Here is a way to find out.
If you will do it your friends will be glad to let you think for them and even put their words in their mouth. So this for example: Go to the room of the singer and ask her, "Heaven's wasn't that dress the singer wore last night the limit? Awfully poor taste, I thought." Your friend will answer nine chances out of ten. Yes, that was a sight. I noticed that Cinder she doesn't catch on, isn't it?
Then go on down the hall and say to another one, "I'll bet that singer last night gets her gowns in Paris; they must be wearing them and yet they are in such good taste. I wish I knew how she does it." And this time the answer is, "Say that was a good looking ring she had on." From looking at it most of the time."
It will work—try it.

WOMEN'S DORMITORIES BEFORE LEGISLATURE
Senate Recommends Bill Providing for Bonds for Buildings at Institutions
EACH SCHOOL TO GET ONE
Time
Plan to Have the Homes to Pay for Themselves In
Two bills providing for the issuance of bonds for the erection of dormitories for women at the state educational institutions, were introduced in Juneate yesterday, and recommended for passage by the committee of the whole.
SELF PAYING PLAN
The first bill authorizes the Board of Administration, governing the University of Kansas, the Kansas State Agricultural College, the Kansas State Normal, the Fort Hays Normal and the Pittsburg Normal to issue bonds of each institution to the sum of having a rate of five per cent interest, and all such bonds shall be used as a special fund of each institution for the erection of women's formitories on the land of the different institutions.
The bill authorizes the Board of Administration to use the proceeds of rent from the dormitories for the building of housing and original principal of the bonds.
The five large state schools at present are not incorporated, and therefore could not issue bonds. The second bill is intended to overcome this difficulty by authorizing the incorporation of the schools.
Some opposition to the measures was encountered, but Senator Carroll, of Alma, who is the author of the bills, and Senator Plumb, of Emporia, called attention to the fact that housing facilities for women at all the state schools are inadequate. This has led to calls for more measures, and they were placed on the calendar to be brought up later subject to amendment and debate.
SHOW INDUSTRIAL PICTURES
Moving Pictures Illustrate the Manufacture of Different Fabrics
Six reels of moving pictures, illustrating the making of fabrics in the different processes from the raw material to the finished goods, are being shown this afternoon in Fraser and the mason Manufacturing Company are brought here under the auspices of the Commerce Club.
The company sends with the pictures an expert on the subject who explains in detail every move in the making of finished products. These films have been shown in many other of the large Universities and in several cities under the auspices of commerce and rotary clubs.
FEBRUARY, 1917, IS DRIEST MONTH ON K. U. RECORDS
Weather bureau records of the University show this to be the driest February Kansas has had during the forty-nine years records have been kept. The rainfall record has been higher than that shown, which shows the smallest amount of moisture,.03 of an inch. The abnormal drought of the winter of 1916-17 is shown by the fact that the total rainfall for the last three months was only .81 inches, or an average of.27 inches for each month. Records show that in 1916 was marked by a deficiency in rainfall and unusually high temperatures.

NEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1917
Truth, 'tis supposed, may bear all the truth of what we are about or natural nudities by which things are to be viewed in order to a thorough recognition is ridicule itself—Shafta-t
SNAP JUDGEMENT
If there is any one thing that every branch of education brings out above every other subject, it is the consideration of the rights of others; and if there is any one thing the college man and woman is lacking in, it is this consideration.
The college man is a man of absolute, unqualified statements. He is quick to condemn as a numbskull or as a sister or a roughneck any of his fellow-students without taking into consideration many of the really good things that may be characteristic of that particular fellow. He is to prone to look at questions from one viewpoint, and be closed to conviction on another. He looks a trifle deeper than the surface and then makes final judgements. He figures he has gone deeper than the average individual, and he has—but too often he has not gone deep enough to see the real point in question.
In mathematics we cannot determine X without knowing Y. In biology we cannot say an organ is meant for this or that function unless we have disposed of other possible functions. In language we must know the meaning of the various words to make a whole sentence. In law we cannot decide cases on a single principle. We must first know what other principles do, or might apply to the case at hand.
The man who stands patiently holding the door of Fraser at 8:29 while several dozen tardy students squeeze in, is one of the many unsung heroes.
PROMPTNESS DESIRED
Much has been said concerning the professor who holds classes overtime and now that the first touch of life is coming to the campus vegetation, the first spring bonnets are appearing on the campus, and even haughty seniors are wont to frequent the hall of the Library, the disadvantages caused by said professor who h.c.o.t. becomes more apparent than ever. Leaving out the question of food getting cold on boarding-house tables altogether, think of the immense discomfort and time lost waiting for her in front of Fraser while some thoughtless teacher begins to assign the next lesson five minutes after the ten-minute whistle blows.
In the afternoon classes one is left to perspire and wriggle over the mental picture of missing the first reel of the show at the Varsity.
Or maybe some luckless lover with a fond one at home is compelled to sit distraint, anxious to rush home and eagerly grab the sweet-sweet envelope, while Sir Professor not only completes the elaborate paragraph he is wading in the midst of, but also commences a new one that promises even greater latitude.
But worst of all, imagine how it will be in the spring when out on McCook Field the batter pops out hot grounders to the infelders and the third baseman slaps his glove in the dust and pegs to first, nine ancient enemies from Mizzu cavort under their beachers while an Oh-Me!-OhMy! rings out. Human mind cannot fathom the endless perdition that will be wished on a professor who holds classes late at such a time.
WHY WORRY?
If your professor suggests a little
He may or may not give it.
If he does not, why worry?
Should he give it, you will either be
prepared or not be prepared.
If you are prepared, why worry?
Probably you will get a I or a II.
If you draw a I, why worry?
Being prepared, you could searched
fall above a II, which is a lot bet-
fall below a II, which is a lot b
than some student will learn.
ter than some student will do.
Thus, if you draw a II, why worry.
If you were not prepared, why worry?
You will either "get by" or flunk.
If you "get by", why worry?
If you "get by," will you be able?
you don't you will only be doing the same thing that has happened in the best of families for the last hundred years.
Why worry?
FEEL YOUR WORK
Interest in one's work is necessary for the well doing of that work. With interest, work may become a fascination and a pleasure, while work without interest is a mere grind. In the one the worker is the master, in the other the slave.
Do the work that interests you and get interested in your work. Nothing is so dull but what it possesses interest for somebody, and it is the interest that produces results. If you find no interest in your present work, and only do it because of a sense of duty, quit it and take up something else. Do something in which you have an interest, and in which you can put your best energy and strength.

Sudden it seemed, and almost strange

But above our path he perched to sing Of days of warmth and growth to be; And within our waiting hearts cheers ring
The echoes of his ecstacy.
So! out of the valley and up the hill,
Comrades of season's warm or cold.

-MR. SENIOR,
WHEN YOU GIVE A FUSSY PARTY you don't HAVE to send out invitations—You COULD call 'em up on the 'phone.
WHEN YOU GET MARRIED you don't HAVE to send out invitations—You COULD elope.
When you graduate from one of the biggest universities in the United States—Well, you DO HAVE to send out invitations announcing that fact to your proud friends. Everybody recognizes the fitness of sending Commencement Invitations. You are approaching a big event—the event, in fact, of your lifetime—for, Scnors, we don't graduate but once.
The Senior Commencement Committee is now offering this year's graduates the classiest invitations that have ever come to K. U.-You can't afford to stint your friends--you must be liberal. They expect it of you.
So put in your order at once. The committee wishes to impress upon you the fact that you should "do your commencement invitation ordering early."

K. U. ALUMNI TO HOLD BANQUET IN NEW YORK
Will Show Pictures of Campus and Scenes of Interest at University
The set includes photographs taken as far back as 1855 and as recent as 1916. Among the views taken in earlier years, several are of particular interest. One picture taken in 1885, shows a group of K. U. students and faculty members on the top of Long's bridge at Birmingham University, those in the group are ex-governor Herbert Hadley of Missouri, Vernon Kellog of the Belgian Relief Commission, the late General Fred Funston, Mrs. Nellie Troutman, the late Chancellor Frances H. Snow, Harry Riggs, dean of the engineering school of the University of Michigan, and E.C. Franklin of Ieland Stanford University. Another picture of interest was made by Dr. William T. The faculty was composed of twenty-five members at that time and of this number twelve are still at the University. This picture was shown at the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893.
The orchestra will strike up "Crimson and Blue," then Bill of '93 and Jim of '94 will join in with a hundred other loyal Jayhawkers and sing as they never sang before, and when the song is finished a mighty Rock Chalk for forth which may even cause Broadway to pause for a moment and listen.
All this and much more will happen when the familiar scenes on Mount Oread are thrown on the screen before the members of the K, U. Alumni in New York at their annual banquet to be held March 17th in New York City.
The New York alumni recently requested the association here to send them a set of University views that could be used at their meeting this year. Miss Agnes Thompson, secretary of the Alumni Association, and Dr. L. W. Flint have arranged a set of suitable suits for this occasion.
Included among the set of slides, is a picture of the old windmill that stood until recent years on the hill near ninth street in the west end of Kansas City. This historic spot was a favorite picnic ground for Kansas University students and meant to them what Cameron's Bluff means to present day Jayhawkers.

A VOTE FOR EVERY PENNY
HOW YOU SELECT THEM
For every penny you invest in the purchase of a Jayhawker or for space in the book before March 13, you will be given one vote in the Vanity Fair Contest. Thus if you buy a three dollar book you may cast 300 votes, or if you pay one dollar down on a book you may cast 100 votes. In order that every studenty may have a 1917 Jayhawker the price has been reduced to a minimum. However, this necessitates that a payment of not less than one dollar be made on each book ordered. The same system that was used last year will again be used this year, namely: that no more books will be printed than have been ordered.
THIS IS HOW YOU VOTE
When you order your book you will be given a card on which will be recorded the number of votes to which you are entitled, which will depend upon the amount that you pay down. You will fill out this card for which ever candidate you wish to cast your votes. It must then be deposited in the contest box in the Jayhawker office in Room 102, Museum. Seniors who have paid their dues may secure a ticket for voting upon application at the Jayhawker office. The keys to the ballot box will be held by Professors Arthur MacMurray and S. O. Rice who will act as tellers. The progress of the contest will be published in the Kansan on the two following Mondays, and the final results will be made known upon the appearance of the Jayhawker.
WILL OCCUPY SIX PAGES
There will be ten winners in the contest. The two highest will be given a full page each. The other eight will have a half page each. Professional designers and artists will arrange and decorate the six panels of this 1917 Jayhawker feature. Each winner will appear in two different poses, while the two highest will appear in either three or four different poses.

TEAM SCORED HEAVILY IN BASKETBALL GAMES
K. U. Team Annexed 391 Points While Opponents Took 363 —Uhrlaub Led Scoring
KANSAS IN FOURTH PLACE
Defeats for Missouri, Aggies or Ames May Boost Jayhawker Standing
Although the Jayhawker goal-toes have closed their season it is still uncertain just what rung they will occupy on the Missouri Valley championship ladder until the Valley season closes March 9 and 10 with a two game series between Ames and Nebraska at Lincoln and between the Tigers and Washington University at St. Louis.
At present the Jayahawks occupy fourth place, with the Tigers, Aggies and Ames in the lead. Ames would go to third place. The only other possibility for Kansas to end the season in third place would be for the Aggies to lose all their remaining games with the Tigers and Washington University. All four Aggie games will be played on foreign courts.
The comparative points scored by the Jayhawk quintet as against those scored by their opponents give Kansas a considerable edge. The Crimson and Blue goal-cagers made a total of 391 points in the sixteen conference games as against 363 for their opponents.
Rudolf Uhrlau, star left forward was the greatest point-getter for the Jayhawkers, scoring 131 points of the total 391 points for the entire Jayhawketer squad. Besides getting the highest total number of points he scored the highest individual number of points in any single game, by making seventen of the twenty-nine points in Kansas in the second Angie game at Michigan, by being field baskets and thirteen free ones, He also has the honor of being the only Kansas player to score in every game.
Williams, the star center on the Tiger quintet, is the only player in the Missouri Valley Conference that played with his team during dof尔Uhrlaub. Leon Gibbens, fast right forward, was next highest scorer on the Kansas team, with ninety points while Scrubby Laslett, followed with sixty-eight points.

The Jayhawker goal-tossers are still in the race for the third rung on the Missouri Valley Conference championship ladder. If Ames or the Aggies should lose two of their remaining Missouri Valley games, Kansas would automatically advance to third place.
The average man thinks he can save systematically but does he?
