Petitions for prospective candidates have been circulated widely during the last few days. The names of those nominated for the contest will be announced in Monday's Kansan.

Mrs. Beach Cup War-Savings Stamps are Worth Self-Sacrifice. Sweaters Knitted By Women Come in Slowly UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 1, 1918. Sixteen sweaters from the one hundred pounds of yarn checked out by University women shortly after Christmas, have been turned in at Robinson Gymnasium. Approximately eighty-five women checked out yarn but the sweaters are coming in slowly. "We are anxious to have the sweaters turned in as soon as possible," said W. O. Hamilton, "so they will be of use this year." The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY Lick a War Savings Stamp and lick the Kaiser. A Chicago woman has sold $12,000 worth of thrift stamps. The Texas lower house has voted to ratify the national prohibition amendment. Only one small French vessel was torpedoed last week. Italy reports no submarine losses. Unofficial Petrograd reports state that American Ambassador Francis has left the city. The cabinet of Spain has resigned on account of being unable to agree on an attitude toward Germany. The British casualties for the past month were the lowest since last winter, totalling less than twenty thousand. The War Department has announced that women are not wanted as radio operators in the navy or naval reserve unless they have had long experience. Reporter He Say It Be One Fine Party The Kansan office is deserted and worried today. None of the gentle little sisters of the honorary journalism sorority has poked her head within range of the newspaper shop. The old staid men, from reporter to boss-beditor, are disconsolate. "Whatsamatter?" growled th news editor. "Durnedifino," grunted his aid. "Durrellinfo, grunted his aid. "Find out," was the curt order. And then cub reporter was assigned. The rest of this is his story, just as it came to him, and it belongs to him. And he found: Cub reporter he say he is pretty well satisfied with story and himself and he pretty likely go to that Bill Board Ball tonight. That those Theta Sigma Phi's, of no mean newspaper note, were gathering together a Board Bill—no a Bill Board Ball, or a Ball of Bill Boards or something like that or worse, that would astound the elite of K. U. society and ruin the new society editor of the paper that covers the Hill at least when the wind blows. Y. W. C. A. pledges may be paid any time tomorrow at the check stand in Fraser Hall. Then last big news comes from assistant commissary supervisor. Reporter he say she make issue formal statement late in the night. No candy, she say. No candy, she repent. And no cabs, no flowers. One Hoover fellow he says better not. Be happy as you can, but not no forget what must never be forgotten now. And journalists—they know. Reporter he begin to feel he is one pretty smart fellow. He learn things. That's the way he put it. Mexican pulkey direct from the sandsweet, sage-brushed desert far south of the Rio Grande will adorn the boards,—not the bill boards, but the boards, the stomping ground. Reporter he assure he believe pulkey is Mex for punch, punch that make whole world go round and happy be,—punch of glowing, sparkling, red with juice of orange, purple with juice that one greasel Nebraska always loves. Other things will be on deck—on table to be exact—the reporter report and no one will leave the F. A. U. Hall to keep from starving. Delectable, detachable sandwiches imported from Catus Country will be doled out with proper conservation restrictions by journalistic hostesses. Nuts will be there—yes, yes, of course but also nuts to be eaten—nuts that once grey on trees in Oklahoma and Texas. Chancellor to Speak On U.S. War Program To People of Kansas F. R. Hamilton Also is a Member of State Speakers' Bureau Give Accurate Information Food Administration Will Sen Lectures to Conferences Throughout State Two teams of speakers have been selected by the Speakers' Bureau of the Kansas State Council of Defense to fill the program made out by them. This is designed to give accurate information on the war. Twelve representative towns in the state will be covered in a series of war conferences which are to be conducted by the Kansas Council in co-operation with the National and State Food Administration Speakers' Bureau. F. R. Hamilton of the extension division of the University is a member of the Speakers' Bureau which also includes Dean E. C. Johnson of the State Agricultural College, Dr. E. J. Kupil of Topeka, and other teachers in the state. The bureau has divided the speakers into two teams. SPEAKERS FROM THE CONFERENCE The first team has us as European representatives, Armand Wood, Dr. R. L. Wilber, assistant Federal Food Administrator and Lieut. Paul Perigord. The second team has Roscoe Mitchell, Elizabeth Keller, Sherman Davis, Miss Cora Binzel of the Federal Food Administration, Dr. R. L. Wilber, and Hon. Everett Colby, Special Commissioner to France will also speak. In addition to these speakers, Chancellor Frank Strong, P. W. Goebel, state director of the War Savings Committee, Dean William Jardine of the State Agricultural College, Walter Innes, state food administrator, and Doctor Kulp of Topeka will speak at the conferences. SPEAKERS FROM EUROPE TO GIVE WAY INFORMATION The chief aim of the conferences is to give such absolutely accurate information of the causes, conditions, and probable results of the war that the people of the state will more thoroughly back the national administration and the men in the trenches. The speakers will cover ten counties in the state and will speak in towns that have influence over a large neighborhood. The first team will lecture at Ottawa, Council Grove, Salina, Scott City, Dodge City and Hutchinson. At the same time the second team will speak at Horton, Clay Center, Downs, Colby, El Dorado, and Parsons. The conferences will begin March 4 and will all be held in the following week. The programs will last one or two days in each town. Academy of Science To Observe Anniversary Dr. Williston of Chicago Will Speak Friday After- The semi-centennial anniversary of the Kansas Academy of Science will be observed at the University of Kansas March 15 and 16. The first meeting of the academy was held in Topeka. Forty-seven years ago the program was established at Old North College. The program this year will be given in Snow Hall. There will be a dinner after the address by Doctor Williston to which all members of the academy are invited. In the evening, the scientific papers which will be chosen from the thirty or more submitted, will be read. These papers will be printed in the "Transaction of the Kansas Academy of Science." Dr. Samuel W. Williston, a graduate of the Kansas State Agricultural College and a former member of the faculty of the University of Kansas, will talk at 4 o'clock on Friday afternoon. Send the Daily Kansan Bome. Doctor Williston came to the University in April 1890 to teach geology. He left in 1902 to become a member of the faculty of the University of Chicago. The spirit of retaliation aroused in the American lines by the gassing of sixty-six soldiers is expected to bring about a determined artillery attack on the Germans at once. Union Week to Begin March 3 When Young People Hold Meeting Committee Has Been Working On Plans and Expect Large Attendance Various Societies of Lawrence Are Co-operating in Holding Religious Gathering To Give Impetus to Work The special celebration which the Lawrence Christian Endeavor Union is planning for the week, March 3-10, is being worked out by a committee partly composed of University students. This committee is urging a large attendance of students and faculty members at the various meetings of the week. Nearly all of the young people's societies of Lawrence are co-operating in holding the meetings, which, according to Alfred Graves, c21, are for the purpose of giving new impetus and interest to young people's work in the city. UNION MEETING SUNDAY The week will open next Sunday night with a union mass meeting at the church. All church services will be combined with the young people's meetings this night. UNION MEETING SUNDAY Raymond Youmans, president of the Kansas City young people's union and professor in the public speaking department of Kansas City University will speak. Short talks will be made by several local speakers, and special music will be given. The regular union prayer meeting will be held in charge of the Christian Endeavor union in the Christian church Wednesday night. Ulita Hawkins will lead, emphasizing the relation of the prayer meeting to the young people's society. A large mixer for all the young people of the city is planned for Friday, at the Baptist church, under the leadership of Harold Constant. The goal for the night is an attendance of 350 persons. A week of special meetings had been planned for an earlier date, but on account of the fuel situation, it was postponed until warmer weather. Ethel Minger, c'20, is chairman of the committee on general arrangements for the week. Students Cutting Gym Have Been Notified Action Is to Follow College Leads in List of Ab- sences—Laws Come Next Students who have not been attending gymnasium classes in accordance with the Senate rule have been notified by the department and ordered to make arrangements for making up cuts. Those who failed to obey the warning were referred to the deans of their schools today and will be given three days to arrange for making up the work. The department has divided the students who have not attended into three classes: delinquent, class one, and class two. The delinquent class is made up of students who have never enrolled for any form of physical education and have three weeks work to make up for the department. work to make up for the department. Class one includes students who have not had regular attendance but have shown some disposition to make up the work since being notified by the department. Class two is made up of students who did not obey the warning cards sent out by the department and have not shown any disposition to make up their cuts. The Senate has given the deans of the University power to suspend all students from class who are reported in the Senate to the department of physical education. The College leads the list of irregular students with 56 delinquent, 23 in class one, and 23 in class two. The School of Law comes next with 26 delinquents, three in class two. The School of Engineering has thirteen delinquents, one in class one, and five in class two. The Graduate School has five delinquents, the School of Pharmacy six, School of Fine Arts one, and the School of Medicine five, four in class one, and eight in class two. Class of 1918 to Give New Clock to Chapel At a meeting of the senior memorial committee last night it was decided to tax each senior twenty-five cents to buy a clock for the chapel which will be installed temporarily in Fraser and which will be moved to the new Administration Building when it is finished. "These memorial dues will be collected by the committee," said Walter Raymond, chairman, today, "who will give an authorized receipt for the money." The committee consists of Walter Raymond, chairman, Clarence Garrill, Charles Schugart, Mignon Plank and Nell Blurton, who will call up each senior or see him personally and collect the dues. Plain Tales From The Hill The first sergeant was getting ready to call the roll. "Right shoulder, amrs," he said, or rather meant to say, for his voice broke and squeaked on the "arms." The men cigged. "Steady," said the captain. "Cut that out," growled the first lieutenant. The men who had almost stopped laughing began anew, startled by the tone of the lieutenant. It was at a recent Varsity dance. Charley Shofstall, who is to be the main attraction at the Theta Sigma Phil's Bill Board Ball, was tickling the ivories in that seductive way of his, jazzing a bit here and there and then playing the same melody with bassical correctness. "Sho'f's going great tonight, isn't he?" observed a man whose style of dancing isn't the kind the co-eds rave about. His date thought so too. "Almost as good as Sho-pang, isn't he?" continued the man. As she didn't contradict that statement, he went on. "Sho-pang was quite a musician too," he said. "He wrote the Marseillaise, you know." And she was a Fine Arts student! SHOO. GO 'LONG, 'LIZA A colored man who delivers washings to some students on Ohio street has contracted a splendid case of swell head. All because he has mistaken twice for a young lady's date. One cold wintery night he was met at the door with a sympathetic "Come right in. You poor thing, I bet you's almost frozen to death." Before the colored man could protest he was led into the warm parlor where, with the aid of the lights, the young lady realized her mistake. Then on a summery night when he rang the door bell, a young lady came out and said, "I'm all ready, so we'll just go on now." And she was decided disgusted when he wouldn't go. The officers of the 4 o'clock military drill company that faces the south as it is lined up for roll call were surprised Thursday afternoon at the steadiness with which the men kept their eyes straight to the front, their heads up, and chins drawn back. What kept these privates from gawking to the right and left or studying the toes of their boots was a long V of geese flying in the general direction of California. OF SUCH IS MAN The women's glee club was on the platform of Fraser Hall trying to reach the high Z necessary for their concert Tuesday night. The men's glee club came to the hall to try the strength of their vocal cords, but found the women in their way. So they went to the balcony door and neered in. An ambitious woman, seeing a chance to sell a lot of tickets for the concert, went up the stairs to intercept the men. They, clutching their pocketbooks, climbed higher on the dark stairs of Fraser tower. The young woman saw nobody. ... Notice Owing to the withdrawal of some members of the class in typewriting, there is room now for a few more machines in the class. Two or three machines are available for use. K. U. Students to Sign Savings Stamp Blanks At Gym Classes Today Is Part of National Drive to Sell $2,000,000,000 Worth Shaad Wants 2000 to Invest Chairman of Committee Expects To Have Little Trouble in Obtaining Number If you have not bought War Savings Stamps to date, will you begin to invest to the amount of one Baby Bond, $4.14 to $4.17 by July 1, 1918? If so you are entitled to membership in the University War Saving Society. Have you bought. War Savings Stamps to the amount of $4.13? If so you are entitled to membership in the University of Kansas War Saving Society upon signing and mailing the application blank delivered to you in your physical education class today. If you will signify your intention to invest in War Savings Stamps between now and July 1, but cannot see your way to save as much as $4.14, you are entitled to membership in the Society by signing and mailing the application blank, stating the amount you will agree to invest. Application blanks for membership in the University of Kansas War Saving Society will be handed to every student in physical education classes today. The campaign for new members in War Saving Societies is a part of the national drive to dispose of $2,000,000,000 of War Saving Stamps. "The University, should have 2,000 members in a War Saving Society and these should be obtained without further solicitation," said Prof. G. E. Shaad, chairman of the Finance Committee of the University War Council, this morning. "Each student is asked to sign the application blank, place it in the return envelope and drop it in any University mail box. "Stamps should be purchased to the amount of the agreement and as many more as can be arranged at the Registrar's office or post office." Wild Man from Borneo Comes to W.A.A. Circus All the Big Top Features Will Be Shown in Entertainment for Women Only That famous Wild Man from Borneo who is making a farewell tour of America is to make his positively last appearance in Lawrence next Wednesday at the head of his own company. The show, called the Wild and Awful Circus for Women Only will be given in Robinson Gymnasium and will consist of a program that will prove unalterably how wild the Wild Man really is. No other man, no woman, nor child will be allowed the Wild Man's show, but all women who can present a twenty-five cent piece or a W. A. A. membership card at the entrance of the main top will be permitted to see the wild and awful show and all its wildonders. Assisting the Wild Man and his own private troup will be some of the foremost women celebrities of the University, and a sprinkling of near celebrities. Except that no men, except the Wild Man may attend, the circus will contain all the usual circum attractions. One of the cleverest A's has charge of the side shows. Another who has the ice cream and pop corn concessions, promises that the skofin will be good. Positively the only broads that will be recognized will be the W. A. A. membership cards. No moll need expect to get by the ticket guy on a shorter flash than a two-bit piece or W. A. A. paper. There will be a meeting of the "A's" Saturday morning at 9 o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium. Those in the circus must report at 10 o'clock. Send the Daily Kansan Home. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 1, 1918.

FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1918. ATMOSPHERE CONSERVED The compulsory ruling which brought 900 women to the food lecture in Fraser Hall Wednesday was a matter of present national necessity. But with all the saving coincident to the waging of war there was no necessity for conserving the atmosphere in a crowded room. Every woman at that lecture had to breathe again and again the same air breathed and rebreathed by the other 899. There was no attempt at ventilation; every door was closed, every fire exit was guaranteed against intrusion of outer air, every window was tight in its frame save one—and that one window stuck helplessly six inches above its sill. This is the season when, The University Health Board keeps its warnings solemnly intoning. Precautions against sore throat, measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria, and so on—are shouted from the hilltop and pasted on every available wall. Wise doctors advise vaccination, calomel, salts, gargles, diets, and—most of all—FRESH AIR. Then 900 women, some of them like as not a bit feverish with incipient colds, are herded in one stifling compound, are fastened in for an hour of vile ventilation. And 900 brains stultified by stale air, corrupted by carbon dioxide, are expected to absorb sufficient knowledge about the food question to go home and tell the folks about it. OUR K. U. VENEER Conventional manners are not necessarily the outward evidence of true courtesy and innate good breeding. Conventional manners are too deliberate, too self-conscious. At least they are in the University of Kannas. Freshmen come here from all sorts of homes. The average freshman is to a greater or less extent diffident, uncertain of him, or herself, hesitant in the University's cosmopolitan field. His content, true kindness of heart and good intent, is good, but his self expression is feeble and jerky. University life has a strong tendency to mold him into good form, letting his content degenerate. Jimmy arrives at the University. He may say "Yes, sir" to waiters, possess no idea at all when he should remove his hat, and have immoderate affection for orange colored sweaters, but he is modest, wants to be "nice to everybody," and is totally unskilled in the "getting-by" art so widely practiced at the University. A fraternity notices that Jimmy is a nice boy, and needing men, they invite him to their chapter house constantly for two weeks, treating him in a princely fashion. Just as poor Jimmy decides that they are the world's choicest collection of fine fellows they decide they had letter take the other man, and all consistently "pass up" Jimmy when they meet him on the Hill. Jimmy is temporarily crushed and wonders how he has blundered. Later he joins some other frat, improves his taste in nectaries, acquires a "line," learns to discriminate between the "keen" and the unseen "date," accepts favors without returning them. He has learned how to "get by." Little freshman Mary learns to supplement her small wardrobe with her sorority sister's clothes, browr their cold creams. She acquires skill in shifting the uninteresting or more humble guest off on some one else, in contriving to be always near the most striking, or popular person in the room, in manouvering for really "keen" dates to parties, and to get herself into the limelight whenever possible. She comes to be conventionally, but obviously mechanically, courteous to guests at dinner and to pass them without speaking the next morning; to talk enthusiastically to a fellow student at a reception at her own home and afterward to silently disclaim the acquaintance by unblushing accepting an introduction to her. Like Jimmy, she too, learns to "get by." Both because deliberately and consciously courteous, superficially well bred, but not spontaneously and innately so. It's a matter of acquiring veneer, with a loss of quality of heart. Freshmen themselves are not so much to blame. They come here at an impressionable age and merely fall in line. They would fall in line on a higher level just as readily. It is up to the present generation of upper-classmen to establish the new line, one based on genuineness, more sincerity and true good breeding. Many DePauw Men Bear Arms. Headline. But that's nothing. We venture to say that the women have been baring their arms for some time. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT The lecture was only half finished. A steady stream of seemingly weary students and others filed through the door. But each one opened the swinging door and then let it swing back and forth until it stopped of its own accord. The speaker could not help being annoyed. A little care in opening and closing the door would have eliminated the noise. It's the little things that count. UNPAID OBLIGATIONS Unpaid pledges amounting to $4,689.15 prevent the University of Kansas from the fulfillment of her promise to give $12,000 to the Student Friendship War Fund. Unforeseen difficulties have delayed many individual payments, no doubt. The original enthusiasm of the campaign has diminished. The chief reason for this failure, probably, is that the unpaid pledges are small, ranging from one to five dollars. Individually it has been easy to forget. The University of Kansas will be judged, however, in the light of individual action. About half the faculty and undergraduate pledges are still unpaid. Payments may be made at the Registrar's office, anytime. A man's field of endeavor is his own mind. The so-called big man may not be as big as the fisherman in the obscure village. Just because a man is connected with a big job, does not prove how a real big man. It's not the size of the job you tackle, but how well you do it. Many men have apparently no ambition in life and are content with minding their own business and making the wife and babies happy. Maybe they're little men, but we doubt it. A man can do a neater piece of work with a pocket knife than he can with a circular saw, but the saw will make more noise and more dust. Bigness lies in one's own soul and a man does more good by living one day right than by spending ten telling others how to do it.—Ex. A MAN'S FIELD POET'S CORNER Rosaleil Dunlap, the niece of Prof. C. G. Dunlap, of the department of English wrote the following poem, Wednesday night after hearing of the gassing of American soldiers in the trenches of France. Miss Dunlap is a student in the Hyde Park high school of American arms an angle with Mrs. Dunlap; Father, the world has bled today! Blood cannot wash our hurts away—Lo—the widening crimson stain—Wounds of sorrow that throb with A PRAYER Take, or take them, our mother's sons— Wounds of sorrow that throb with pain! Guards, oh guard them, our cherished own! Many suffer along the way— Father, thy world has bled today! Father, thy world has welt today! Tears cannot wipe our hurts away— Where is peace for a troubled breast? Where is solace and where is rest? Bring, oh bring us, the cooling balm Still, small voice of eternal calm! Many fainter along the way— Father, thy world has wept today! Father, thy children pray today. Nothing can take the hurt away— Weared, broken, the childen kneel— Lifting hearts for our God to heal! Great Physician, dispel our fears— Stainch the bleeding and dry the tears Father thy children pray today. MENTAL LAPSES -Rosalie Dunlap Wife: You know, Henry, I speak as I think.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Miss Martin Advocates Special War Training For College Graduates ers' Places Need Many Nurses at Home to Take Red Cross Workers' Places Miss Pearl Martin, secretary of the Kansas State Nurses Association, who talked to the women of the University yesterday in Room 110 Fraser Hall, advocated special training above all else in preparation for war work. Miss Martin is representing the National Council of Defense in presenting the great need for trained nurses in this country and abroad. Four thousand nurses have been called into service, according to Miss Martin. The country turns to high school and college women to fill this vacancy. In entering training one is performing a national service for by so doing the experienced nurses are released to go abroad. Nursing, she said covers from twenty to thirty lines of activity including the public health nurse, those going into infant welfare work, laboratory assistants, army, navy and Red Cross nursing. MANY FIELDS FOR NURSES Simons College, Boston, Vassar College, Columbia Teachers College, University of Minnesota and Colorado University are offering three month's courses for nurses' aids. Miss Martin mentioned these but her plea was for a larger term training which will give greater efficiency. OFFER TWO YEARS' COURSE OFFER FOREMOST CHOICES The foremost hospitals of the United States have reduced the three years course of training to two years for supervisors and teachers in order that supervisors and teachers may be acquired in shorter time. Obviously, this is the opportunity for college trained women. In advising the women who desired to enter training Miss Martin said that the important things were the registration of the hospital in the hospital in the state, the housing, and the working hours. The best period for training she said is between the ages of twentw-one and twenty-five years. Size and height are not restricted but a strong healthy body means poise and self-control in emergency. MUST LIVE PATRIOTISM "No one will succeed with nursing who is afraid of work," Miss Martin said in closing. "We are facing a national crisis as well as a world crisis. We must live our patriotic Absolute renunciation, expected of college men; it is so much the duty women to enter training for this emergency as of the college men to go into training camps. She will receive the honor of every one worthy the name of citizen." In answer to Miss Martin's question as to how many women present thought of entering hospitals for nursing courses, fourteen students stood up. By the Way Just About Folks.

Kansas to Have Large Track Representation In K. C. A. C Tourney Coach Hamilton Will Sen About Thirty Men to Kansas City Meet Expect to Place in Dashe Will Give Jayhawker Supporters Chance to Size Up Ability Of Athletes The Jayhawkers will have more athletes on the floor of Convention Hall Saturday night in the Kansas City Athletic Club meet than have represented the University of Kansas in this meet in many years. W. O. Hamilton, will enter about thirty men in the meet. Many freshmen will go from K. U. to participate in this meet. The Kansas runners are expected to do the best work in the dashes in which Lobaugh and Everett Bradley are entered. In the distance events Kansas has several new men that may show up well and Murphy, the only old man to be entered in this meet, is expected to place in the half mile. He may also run in the mile. Hobart is expected to do some good work in the low hurdles, the only hurdle race to be run. Several of the Kansas half-milers will enter the 1,000 yard handicap and K. U. will compete with several athletes in the handicap 12-pound shot put. Kansas will compete with the University of Nebraska in the relay for University teams. Haskell will also have a team in the relay. The meet should prove interesting to track followers in the Missouri Valley in that it will show what the comparative strength of the teams is this season. About 250 college and high school entries are expected to take part in the different events. While Kansas is getting its first practice in a big meet this year, Haddock, a freshman from last season's team, and Rice, star high jumper, will go to the invitation meet of the University of Illinois Saturday night. Haddock will enter the short dash events, and Rice will compete in the high jump. Rice has been clearing the bar recently at six feet in practice and if he does as well in the Illinois meet at Urbana, Ill., he should place near the top.

The men who will make the trip are Captain Uhlraub, Scrubby Laslett, Claude Matthews, Howard Miller, Johnny Bunn, Oln Fearing, Carl Rice, Jimmy Knoles, Bunn did not go to Columbia and St. Louis on the eastern trip last week. Both Varsity and freshmen teams worked out in the gym last night, most of the practice being in passing and goal shooting. The regulars were using a modified form of the Missouri short pass game and they may try this style of play on the Aggies, who use practically the same long passing and long shooting game as the Jay-hawkers have used in the past. Kansas will enter the final contest with the odds against her, as the Aggies have been travelling at a fast pace since their last race. One victory over the Kansas farmers, however, will give the Jayhawkers a firm hold upon third place, and the Crimson and Blue five is going to fight hard for at least an even break in the series. It is probable that Bunn and Miller will start the game Monday night at the forward positions, Matthews will be at center and Captain Uhrlaub and Scrubby Laslett will hold down the defensive end in an effort to stop the flashy work of Captain Van Trine and G. Hinds, theAggie forwards. Nebraska University defeated the Nebraska Wesleyan quintet in a pair of games, 18-10 and 24-20, last Friday and Saturday nights.

NUMBER 101 Gerard Will Deliver Commencement Talk For University Grads Arrangements are made for Address by Former Ambassador to Berlin Will Speak Here June 3 UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 4.1918 War Was in Germany Two Years After Start of European James W. Gerard, former American ambassador to Germany, has accepted the invitation of Chancellor Frank Strong to give the commencement address at the University June third. Mr. Gerard is a graduate of Columbia University and was associate justice of the Supreme Court of New York for one term. He has been prominent in Democratic campaign work in New York for several years. President Wilson appointed him as ambassador to Germany in July 1918 one year before the outbreak of the war before the entrance of the United States into the conflict was a most trying one. He was well liked by the people of Germany but was not much in favor with the Kaiser and his war lords. When the United States declared war last April he was given a safe passage out of Germany. A number of interesting articles by him have appeared in magazines and he has written a book of his experiences while ambassador at Berlin, which has been valuable as an explanation of the position of Germany in the war. Kansas Debaters Will Meet Oklahoma and Colorado Next Friday Commencement speakers at the University since 1912 were: Hamilton Wright Male, associate editor of Outlook, Philander P. Claxton, United States Commission of Education, Charles R. Brown, Dean of the School of Divinity of Yale University, Rabbi Wise, Hamilton Hold, editor of the Independent Magazine, and William Jennings Bryan. Kansas will uphold the affirmative here of the question "Resolved, that the Federal Courts of the United States should be deprived of the power to declare acts of Congress unconstitutional." K. U. Affirmative Team Here —Negative Goes to Norman The K. U. negative team will meet the Oklahoma team at Norman on the same evening. At the same time Oklahoma and Colorado teams meet at Boulder. The names of the judges have been submitted, but have not yet been agreed upon by the opposing schools. All of the judges here will be from Kansas City and those at Oklahoma will come from Oklahoma City. "The question this year about the courts is one that is of great current importance," said Prof. H. T. Hill, who is coaching the debaters. "The members of the squad have gone to the bottom in the question and it will be interesting as well as instructive to the public." City. The squads have been working hard on the question for the last two months. The individual members are now working on the delivery and the rebuttal points. The teams chosen from the squads will be announced the first of next week. The debate here is open to the public and student tickets admit. Much interest has been shown formerly in the triangular debate. It is the first of the two debates to be held here this year. Kansas will meet a team from Missouri in April.

U., Follies will feature local hits, songs, jokes, and patriotic selections in the entertainment March 14. Helen Cook, Hester Jackson, and Nell DeHart are on the program again with a "rube" act similar to the one in which they appeared last year. They will be accompanied by a hick chorus for a hick drill in appropriate costume. Dorothy Button and Mildred Dietz with chorus have a clever song followed by a song and dance by Carl Brown and Ethel Wycoff. One of the big features of the Follies will be a patriotic drum specialty by Willard Pierce, followed by a song by Irene Jardin and chorus. Howard Haines, formerly of the Orphem circuit, will appear as a novelty trickster. A black face sketch will be given by Burt Cochran and Dorothea Engle. The finale will be a patriotic number by Etta Poland and chorus. Many other features, equally as good, will be announced later. The War Here and Over There The ship shortage is made plain by figures which show the world is short more than seven million tons of shipping. Secretary Baker estimates that three million tons more of new ships will be necessary to get the whole army to France. WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY Germany exalts over the success of our latest war loan, which reminds us hat when Lee surrendered the most identifiable commodity in Dixie was Confederate money—Boston Transcript. The Food Administration has fixed the price of binder twine, taking nineteen cents, the present price of sisal, as the basis, and setting the maximum amount of profit. The United States has added 399 vessels to its merchant marine in the last six months. A tobacco shortage in Germany is causing the use of many more or less harmful substitutes. The Austrian peace terms offered to Rumania demand abdication of the kind in favor of his brother. The United States spent more than a billion dollars for war purposes in February. The campaign for the third Liberty Loan will begin April 6, the first anniversary of America's entrance into the war. President Wilson has placed an embargo on corn imports, to hasten the movement of wheat, which is badly needed to fill commercial agreements with Europe. The War Department announces the loss of the naval tug Marine last week in a gale. Officers and crew were rescued. American troops repulsed a strong German gas and artillery attack north of Toul, driving back the Teutons after a hand to hand fight. Both sides took prisoners in small raids. Four bodies have been recovered and twenty-four men are still missing from among the crew of the naval tug Cherokee, which went down in a storm Tuesday. Petrograd dispatches say the Bolsheviki, with the motto "Victory or death" are arousing enthusiasm for the defense of Petrograd, and have broken off all negotiations with the Germans. Other dispatches say the Bolsheviki have signed, at Brest-Litovsk, a treaty of "peace at any price," and that the German advance has ceased. One hundred forty-four persons, including seven women nurses, who were on board the torpedoed British hospital ship, Glenart Castle, are still unaccounted for. A decision is expected soon on the proposed movement to Siberia by United States troops to assist the Japanese in putting down pro-German movements there. Two officers at Camp Doniphan are to stand trial as a result of the investigation following the reports of insanity conditions and the neglect of patients at the base hospital there.

"Liberty" Jayhawker To Record Year's Work Of University in War All Activities in Great Struggl Will be Recognized in This Year's Annual A "Liberty" Jayhawker, designed along patriotic lines, entirely in keeping with the spirit of the times is what this year's annual will be, according to Harry H. Morgan, editor. Realizing that the war has touched, either directly or indirectly, every person in the University and that the year's activities have all been affected and changed by the big struggle, the editors felt the Jayhawker would not be an accurate memoir of life on Mount Oread without such an atmosphere. In addition to a military tone running throughout the book, from the cover design to the last page, which combines loyalty to Old Glory, with fidelity to the Crimson and Blue, the annual will have a special military section, as extensive and complete as any other feature. The Jayhawker will be dedicated to the Kansans who are making the supreme sacrifice for their country and the military section will be made of material appropriate to such a department, including pictures and snap shots of University men who are now in the service, views of Company M depicted by Dr. Danielson, as pictures of the cadet drill companies. Special features of the section will be war poems and suitable illustrations. The opening pages and sub-divisions pages will be red, white and blue, in a style of art work, done by especially chosen professional artists, such as has never appeared before in a University annual. The border design will combine the quail motif with the crown and the panels for the seniors, junior and sophomores will carry out the same iden- "Iinasmuch as this is the first time in the history of K. U. that the publication of a war annual has been possible the editors of the book consider it a privilege as well as a duty to issue such a book," said Morgan today. "We are doing our utmost to publish a Jayhawker that must necessarily be essentially different from former ones in this respect and hope to create something that will stand as a monument to the effort and sacrifice all K. U. men are making for their country." The work of the University women will be shown by pictures of the surgical dressings classes and what the combined effort and contribution of K. U. to the cause has been will be told in the military section by a faculty man capable of writing such an article. Send the Daily Kansan Home. Lovers of Old Books Will Revel in Exhibit Of Annuals in Spooner To the folks who like to poke their noses into musty books and uncover all norts of interesting data about the misty past, the exhibit of "all the annuals ever published at K. U." on display in Spooner Library this month, is one of the most interesting things on the campus. Collection Dates From "Heiro- phautes" of '73 to "Liberty" Jayhawk of '18 Ever since 1874, when the first Kansas annuall, the "Heliophanites," was published, a complete file of the books has been kept by the University Library. They are ordinarily locked in the vault but because the 1918 Jayhawkner is planned to be institutional record of the University's part in the Great War, they were brought out and placed on display, in order that this year's book may be compared with the annuals of the past. Smallest and perhaps most interesting of all, is the first annual—the "Hierophanes" of 1873-4. The book was edited by Miss Hannah Oliver, now of the department of Latin, assisted by three members of the I. C. Sorsis and Beta Theta Pi societies. Those were the days when the literary and fraternal societies controlled all student activities on Mount Oread; and the second annual, edited by a members of Phi Kappa Psi, who dedicated to the Betas, because of their invaluable aid in advertising the book. Perhaps some explanation for this "1918 Jayhawkier Edition" of the Kansan ought to be made. If so, this is it: IN EXPLANATION: But this year, things are different. The senior class is small. Without the help of the rest of the student body, it could not publish an annual that would do justice to the University. And it is up the rest of us to help. And so, this 1918 Jayhawkter—"The Liberty Bell Book"—is an annual in which all of us are vitally interested. It will record, as no other agency could record, the part the University is taking in the Great War. Everything that we have done this year will be shown in picture, song and story. Ten years from now, with the war a memory, your friends scattered and gone the 1918 Jayhawkler will be a valued record of your classmates' part in the Great War. All that there is in friendship and association will be recalled through the Jayhawkler's story. These early annuals were printed by the "Lawrence Journal Steam Printing Establishment," and are extremely interesting from a typographical standpoint. There are no printed pictures in the first half dozen books, though several contain actual photographs tipped in the binding. Realizing that the 1918 Jayhawker must be radically different from all before-the-war annuals, the management of the book wisely chose a staff of students representative of all classes in the University. The 1918 Jayhawker is not only a senior annual. It is everybody's annual. Students whom all of us know—from freshmen to graduates—have contributed to its making. (Continued on page 3) The 1918 Jayhawker is everybody's annual—the Liberty Bell Book that belongs to all of us. Years may pass before another clalabor Jayhawker will be published on Mount Oread. Those of us who can should take advantage of this one. Until 1900, every senior class which published a book chose an individual name for it; so that all the books of the '80s and '90s have different titles. The "Kiwr Book" of '96, was one of the on-st elaborate of these books, and contains page after page of original drawings by Syd Prentice. His depiction of scenes at Cameron's Bluffs, where the students used to go on hikes and for picnic suppers, are quite The Jayhawkler has never been, in the past, the All-University book that it is, and should be, this year. Prior to the Great War, the annual has always been entirely a senior class book, published by the seniors for the seniors—and including the lower classes only incidentally. The Kansan recognizes these facts. Therefore, it gives its space, willingly and cheerfully, today, that the student body as a whole may come to recognize them, too. like those appearing in recent books: "The Quivera," of 1893, was the first cloth bound annual to be published. Prof. R. D. O'Leary, department of English, wrote one of the editors of *English*. It was a big underwriting for us at the time," he said of his work as student editor, "and we considered we had produced a wonderful book. It was so expensive, in fact, that we lost quite a little money on it, and several of us went out from college with a debt hanging over us that we later had to pay." The "Quivera" contains "Our Kansas Girls" Contest Starts Today With 44 Women in Race Corps of Solicitors for Jayhawker Begin Tomorrow to Get Votes For Themselves or Friends—Every Cent Good for a Vote Eight Winners to be Given Page Each in Feature Section Plain Tales From The Hill The following young women have been nominated as candidates in the contest : Instructor in French: "What does the French word 'souvenir' mean?" Student: "I don't know." Overheard at a local restaurant (from a Freshman who was experiencing difficulties in cutting his roast beef): "Gosh this cow must have gone to school where gym was compulsory; I never saw such a muscle before." Contest Ends March 16—Contestants' Standings Will be Announced as Race Progresses—Faculty Members Act as Judges dates in the contest: Missie Frances James, Earline Allen, Helen Brown, Muriel Brownlee, Missie Francis James, Beryl Buchanan, Jessie Buck, Dorothy Button, Charlotte Carnie, Edna Chain, Lila Clark, Hazel Cook, Irene Cutter, Opal Day, Rhea Diveley, Katherine Follill, Lillian Gleisser, Agnes Gossard, Helen Govier, Moseley Hambric, Marion Holmes, Geneva Hunter, Josephine Huni, Hester Jackson, Agatha Kinney, Logue Lisanne, Laurine Lynn, Ruth Masssey, Lois McCord, Patterson Mildred Payne, Lena Pittenger, Rae Riley, Eda Rising, Mary Sampson, Genevieve Searns, Fern Skra, Myrtle Steen, Eileen Van Zandt, Genevive West, Elaine Wharton, Dorothy Wiggins, Grace Windsor, and Jessie Wyatt. With forty-four University young women nominated as candidates, the "Our Kansas Girls" contest of the 1918 Jayhawker started today and will continue for two weeks. During this time a miniature army of solicitors, primed with an argument for every objector, will endeavor to sell a "Jayhawker" to every student on the Hill. They will get votes for themselves or for friends by inducing every student to subscribe for the University's first war annual—The Liberty Bell Jayhawker of 1918. The price of the book is four dollars. I in F: "Well what does it mean in English when a boy gives a girl a souvenir?" Voice from the back row: "It usually means a souvenir spoon." A young army officer from Ft. Leavenworth visited in Lawrence Friday and went to a dance Friday night. His date had to leave town on the 11 o'clock Santa Fe train, and they left the dance in time to catch it. The officer didn't know one station from the other, and the young woman couldn't distinguish them readily. A woman student of the University, by her own confession, sat on the front seat of Fraser Chapel at the food conservation lecture last week, and ate candy while listening to the lecturer's talk on saving. They went to the Union Pacific station. They sat on a bench. And waited. No train came in. Still they waited. Then the officer asked the agent when the train was due. He found there was no train till 2 o'clock in the morning. They discovered their mistake in stations. Found they had only eight minutes to catch the right train. They ran. Although the soldier had been in training for several months, he was hard pressed and fatigued in crossing the bridge. Taking a taxi, they reached their destination just in time to grab the 11 c'clock. War Department Calls Another K. U. Professor Walter Hall, c20, lapsed back several decades in the development of mechanics Sunday. The motor that runs the Baptist Church pipe organ went dead, and Hall was called on to pump air for the musicians. "More exercise than military drill," he said. J. O. Jones, assistant professor of hydraulics at the University has accepted a position as testing engineer on the new munitions plant to be constructed in the east. Professor Jones is the second professor from the School of Engineering to be called by the War Department to work on munitions plants within the last three weeks. C. C. Williams, professor of railway engineering was called to superintend the construction of a plant a short time ago. Black Helmet will meet at the Phi Delta Theta thea Wednesday night. Prof H. A. H. Rice will take charge of Professor Jones' classes at the University Don't be a SPENDER, BE A SAVER! Buy War-Savings Stamps! Votes in the contest cost one cent each, and are given for every penny paid for copies of the Jayhawk or for space in the book. Students paying $4 down for their book will receive vote coupons good for 400 votes; organizations paying for a page of space at $12 will receive 1200 votes. A minimum deposit of $1 is required with every book order. Only a few extra copies, above the number actually subscribed for, will be printed. FACULTY MEN AS JUDGES Professors L, N. Flint, C. A. Dykstra, and Arthur MacMurray will hold the keys to the ballot boxes which are to be placed about the campus; and will act as tellers when the votes are counted. Frequent announcements of the standings of the contestants will be made. There will be eight winners in the contest, and each girl will be given a page of space in the Jayhawker, in the order in which she finished in the contest. Professional designers and artists will arrange and decorate the pages. Each winner will appear in one of the specially selected paper stock, in duotone ink, and will be one of the handsome features of the book. The 1918 Jayhawker is unique and original in composition in that it is a War-Jayhawker, picturing the battle fields of France, the life of soldiers is training camps, both in Kansas and far away in foreign fields, and pictures of many prominent University students who are now in the service. ALL ARE REPRESENTED Every department of the University will be represented, from the engineers over on the "west end" to the medics "down in Rosedale." All the activities of the past year will receive attention. Rallies and athletic contests, the razing of North college, plays and parties—all forms and varieties of student activities will be shown. Distinctly military in spirit, the Liberty Bell Jayhawker will appear in a maroon colored cover, stamped in gold, almost as large as the book last year, and because of the unusual opportunity which the war has afforded to get out a military book, should be more interesting and unique then any annual ever before published here, according to members of the Jayhawker staff. The humor section will provoke the smiles of even the most sober members of the faculty. This department is full of snapshots—a lot of them being those submitted in the snapshot contest last week—and are spicy stuff. In addition, there will be many literary material and cartoons. The Jayhawker Beauty Ball The Jaykins in the "Our Kansas Girl" contest will be awarded at the annual Juyhawker Beauty Ball, to be given April 19 in Robinson Gymnasium. Plans for the party are only in the embryonic stage at present; but all indications are that the Beauty Ball will rival any of the previous parties of the year in elaborateness. There will be a midnight farce, musical comedy style, a supper, and all the trimmings—such as decorations, fussy programs, etctra.

A FRAT CAMOUFLAGE PASSES MONDAY, MARCH, 4, 1918. From this time forth, says Registrar George O. Foster, in making out the competitive scholarship rankings of fraternities and sororities all students enrolled in the University who are either pledged or initiated by such an organization will be considered as members. It is to be hoped that this basis will remove any cause for dissatisfaction which may have existed. The plan eliminates the useful possibility of considering an initiated member inactive, or of omitting pledged from the membership list which organization sends to the registrar's office as a basis for its average percentage. There has been some doubt among Greek organizations as to whether or not pledges were considered as members by the office in making out the rankings. An assistant in the registrar's office says that some organizations have been sending lists of initiated members only, and some sending in both pledges and initiates while others do not bring in any list Manipulation of these lists of members with the intent of raising the scholarship percentage of the organization is in the same class of dishonesty as cheating in examinations, and should meet with a penalty equally severe. Registrar Foster promises that any camouflaging will produce results disastrous to the organization making the attempt. Membership lists in the future will be checked up. This definite basis for the competitive ranking should be clear to everyone. Deception will be impossible. Most people would not enjoy living in the same place with the Kaiser. Perhaps that is the reason that so many want to go to Heaven when they die. THE JAYHAWKER'S IDEAL tion toward which we strive. Personal ideals and community ideals are constantly subject to a change toward the better. Our ideal should never be reached. As we near that goal toward which we have striven in the past, our horizon is enlarged by the progress we have made in the striving, and by virtue of this larger horizon is given us the light to perceive the newer, greater, and higher ideal which lies beyond. And there is always such an ideal beyond. Seldom do we reach that Alexandrian pinnacle where we must sigh for other worlds to conquer. Thus it has been with the 1918 Jayhawker. The book was planned to be a war annual. When those plans were made, the staff scarcely knew what the term meant. But with that ideal the work was started, and, as the workers became educated to the primary principles of what such a book should be, their horizon inevitably became enlarged and their ideals became more comprehensive. It became apparent that the field for visualizing, by stories, articles, and pictures, the intimate connection between this great institution and the horrible cataclysm of war was practically limitless. Departments were organized which have never been seen in previous Jayhawkers—and others were cut down because the events of current history have caused them to pale into insignificance. Hence, the Liberty Bell Book of 1918 is an annual different in makeup, working in new fields, and unique in many ways. It is a book with an ideal—a growing ideal—which its staff has tried hard to reach. Now we hear of ground glass being found in bread. We must not complain however, as everything must be done to conserve the wheat. GERMANY GRABS Six men rode into Sagebrush on a cold wintry day just as the sun was hiding its face under a cover of snow a foot deep. The fourteen persons of the village had just gone into their small huts for the third night since the cold snap had set in. There were just enough food supplies to last until the first day of spring. The outlook was gloomy. The six bandits were heavily armed but lacked food supplies to last them until they could return to their prosperous home city. They had six rounds of ammunition but it was enough to make their entry into the city a success and their robbery of the stores in the village easy. The inhabitants could do nothing but look on helplessly. It was a case of getting what they wanted because they were tall powerful and could take it. Yet they could have left some supplies for the people of Sagebrush. But they were selfish and thought only of the peaceful city for which they were headed through the storm. And they took away everything they could carry, leaving the fourteen inhabitants to their fate. This is a true story. The six inhabitants represent Germany. The village typifies Russia with its stores and ammunitions. Just enough to last if the winter is not too severe. Germany has invaded Russia and grabbed everything that could be taken. The people have been left to their own resources and in the case of Russia it means that the people will starve. We cannot conceive of six bandits riding into a town and committing such a crime. It is not human, we say. But Germany has done this. It is hard to comprehend the Prussian mind because it is not human. Or at least it has no yet proved to resemble the human in the present war. Consequently innocent Russia suffers, while Germany grabs. His room mate got up quietly every morning while he slept. But the other roomie insisted that he had to keep plugging away with his studies until midnight the next night, while his roommate was trying to get to sleep. One was thoughtful and the other thoughtless of the little things of University life. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT WHY? How can we conscientiously spend $4 for an annual at this time, when such stringent economy is being practised in every direction? Because those of us now on Mount Oread may not be here when another annual is published. Why buy a Jayhawker? Can we foretell how many of us may be in the service one year from this date? Can any one prophey whether conditions will permit a Jayhawker to be published by the Class of 1919? Do we wish to be without a book which portrays the Camp and Army life of our University Boys who have left to fight for the highest Then years from now: The War—a memory—our friends scattered—many of them dead. How greatly will we value a record of our friends'—our classmates—part in the Great War? ideals for which any nation ever fought? If there is anything to association —if friendship means* anything— then what will the story of you and your friends be worth ten years from now? If there was ever a reason for buying a Jayhawker, there is a reason today. BITS OF ETIQUETTE What is a gentleman? Of course, Webster says that he is a man well born; a man well bred; a man of fine feelings, especially one of good character, raised above the vulgar by education, habits, and social esteem. But how does the University of Kansas student recognize a gentleman? One student opened up his ideas of what a man is by saying: He is a man who keeps his hands clean, one student says. He is a man who is honorable, and chivalrous, repeats the same judge. A person who does not get mad when the other people shove him out of a line that is waiting to get tickets to the theater, the way another person would. The gentleman is the courteous man, the man who is not continually asking to smoke in the presence of women; in other words not to be a human stove all the time, claims another student. He is a man with a silk hat, and an English coat says yet another. "A gentleman can be recognized by his character rather than by the way in which he acts. His code of ethics is adjustable to meet the situation. A gentleman would not steal from a blind child on the sidewalk." This student wished to be quoted. He tries to do the right thing at the right time and is always considerate of others a new student in the University says. "Gentlemen is a misused term," was all another studious man had to say. "In this vast commonwealth of ours, the man is distinguished from the common folk by his refraining from smoking cigarettes in the presence of a woman, nor does he swear in her presence. He gives his seat in the crowded car to her. It is not necessary that he have seen a fiction, but in a certain amount of refinement and polish. He should also have a fine sense of morals." The eighth student had all of this to say about a gentleman. Then the careworn prof, looked over his dued spectacles, cleared his ears. over his dusty spectacles, cleared his throat and gravelly said: "A gentleman consistently and unostentatiously governs his conduct with quiet, sympathetic regard for others. He would have nothing in his dress, attitude, speech, or actions which would offend commonly accepted good taste, sound sense, and necessary for bearance. His whole life's problem is adjustment of self to surrounding people, adaptation of personality to personality.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Friday is Final Date On Juniors and Sophs Glosses for Sections in Jay hawker go to Engraver Saturday All juniors and sophomores must get their pictures in by the end of this week or have made some special arrangement with the editor of the Jayhawker if they wish their space reserved in the respective sections. This announcement was made this morning by Harry Morgan, editor. W. A. A. Circus. "The photographers have been not notified to take any more pictures of juniors or sophomores for the "Jayhawker," said Morgan, "because no more time can be allowed on those sections and they must go to the engraver Saturday by all means. A great many pictures were taken late and have not been finished yet by the photographer but they have promised that all would be out before the end of the week so no one, who has had his picture need, need be afraid it is too late to get pictures in, but all glosses must be in my hands by Friday night. "The final date for the acceptance of organization gloses, snapshots and cartoons has not been set for March 22 but it will expire our work greatly if they are turned in as soon as they are finished by the photographer." By the Way The women of the University are giving a circus all their own next Wednesday night in Robinson Gymnastium. And no man is allowed to be there. The Women's Athletic Association is at the head of the performance. Promoters say it is going to be a regular circus with pink lemonade, sideshows and trapeze performers. The "A" girls assisted by other women athletes will be the actors. French Lecturer. M.

Glee Club Announces "Viennese Serenade" Farce, "Joint Owners" to be Given at Intermis- sion The trip to Camp Funston is practically assured the Women's Glee Club, if the sale of tickets for the annual concert to be given Tuesday night March 8, at 8:15 o'clock in F. A. Hall will continue to be successful, maybe the same sold already to cover all expenses of putting on the concert. One of the best numbers on the program will be the "Viennese Serenade," which includes a baritone solo by Prof. W. B. D. Downing, director of the club, a four-part chorus, and violin and cello ablizates. Other special features of the concert are "Joint Owners," a sketch to be given at the time of the usual intermission, a rage-taint stunt by eight members of the club and a violin quartet. Tickets are on sale at the Round Corner Drug Store. Lovers of Old Books Will Revel in Exhibit (Continued from page 1) many halftones of the University as it was in 1893, and individual pictures and write-ups of all faculty members. The name "Jayhawker" was adopted in 1900; and the 1901 Jayhawker of which Prof. B. F. Moore, of the department of political science, business managed the display, the exhibition, and elaborate book, with pictures of every student in the University, and many costly features. Each, succeeding "Jayhawk" since 1900 has been a little more elaborate and a little more complete than its predecessors; and they show very markedly the gradual increase in the technique of annual construction that has been acquired by succeeding editors and managers. The modern annual is an achievement and a product underedam of by the pioneers who issued the first "class books" on Mount Oread. The 1912 Jayhawker, which is often spoken of as "the best annual ever published at K. U.," is given a prominent place in the display. It is a wonderfully complete book, with many elaborate art features, and is a monument to the science of annual construction. The binding of the 1918 Jayhawker was also shown. It is bound in maroon leather, and stamped in gold. Money saved saves day and night for you. Buy War-Savings Stamps!

Thus, when you get a $4 "Jayhawker," and pay for $4 you, you will receive a vote coupon good for 400 votes. If you only pay $1 down on the book, you will receive a coupon good for 100 votes. The more money you pay the solicitor, the more votes you will be allowed to cast. In order that every student may have a 1918 "Jayhawker," the price has been reduced to a minimum. This necessitates that a payment of not less than one dollar be made on each book ordered. Only a few extra copies above the number actually subscribed for will be printed; so if you want to be sure of getting an annual, order it during the contest. HOW YOU SELECT THEM: THIS IS HOW YOU VOTE: When you order your book you will be given a coupon on which will be recorded the number of votes to which you are entitled. This number of votes depends, of course, on the amount you pay down for your book. You will fill out this coupon for whichever candidate you wish to cast your votes. It must then be deposited in one of the drawers that have been set up for your votes. The boxes will be at the Jayhawker Bulletin Board at the east entrance of the campus, and another will be in the Jayhawker office, in the "Daily Kansan" news room. Seniors who have paid their dues, or who wish to complete their payments, may secure voting coupons upon application to the Jayhawker office. The keys to the ballot boxes will be sent by mail, to the Arthur McCurray, and N. Flint, who will act as tellers. The progress of the contents will be announced at frequent intervals.

C. A. C. Competition Too Much for Kansas; Few Men Win in Meet Carl Rice Tied for First Place in High Jump at Urbana The long list of Jayhawker entries in the K. C. A. C. meet Saturday night in Convention Hall, Kansas City failed to bring home as many honors as Crimson and Blue athletes have won in the past and the best the K. U. representatives could do was to tie for first in the high jump, take second place in the 12-pound handicap shot put, tie for third in the pole vault and take second in the women's relay team to Nebraska in the first defeat for a Jayhawker relay team in the history of the K. C. A. C. meet. Everett Bradley, c21, was the big winner for Kansas. Bradley tied for first place in the high jump with Pittam and Osborne of Missouri. The height was 5 feet, 11-1.2 inches. In the tots for the medals, Bradley lost to both his opponents. With a handicap of seven feet in the 12-pound range, he took home with a put of 55 feet, 3 inches. Running against a field of the best sprinters in the Middle West, he finished fourth in the 50-ward dash. Roscoe Howard vaulted eleven feet and tied for third place with five other men. Howard has been impu- sioned in a team coming out of the team this year, K. U. lost the relay in the race with the Cornhusher quarter milers. Davidson, the first runner for Kansas, with the disadvantage of having the outside track, kept right on the heels of his Husker opponent and the Shreve, the second Kansas runner, held almost the same position. Russell weakened in the last 200 yards of the third quarter and turned the race to Murphy, the Jayhawyer anchor man, with Nebraska leading fully fifteen years. Murphy ran a beautiful race but the cap was too wide to be closed. Lcobham, placed third in one of the trial heats in the 50-yard dash but only the winners of the first and second places were allowed to run in the finals. Weilty was another Jayhawker to take third place in a trial event, winning that place in the 50-yard low hurdles. Fred Rodkey, a former Kansas track captain, easily won the 880-yard run against a field of ten, in 2 minutes and 5 3-5 seconds. Rodkey took the lead at the beginning of the race and had things his own way throughout. He ran as a representative of the K. C. A. C. While the majority of the Kansas athletes were performing in Convention Hall, Carl Rice was winning a tie for first place in the high jump against Big Ten jumpers in the Illinois Relay Carnival at Urbana. Ill Rice tied with Haigh and Johnson of Michigan at 5 feet 10 1-2 inches, which is almost two inches lower than the Kansas jumper's record. Marshall Haddock, freshman spinner last year, who was sent to the meet with Rice, failed to place in the finals in the 75-yard dash. Send the Daily Kansan Home. ntramural Basketball Schedule Announced Practice for the intramural basketball championship began today. The managers of the different teams signed up with the names of their players. The gymnasium floor upstairs will be free from 5 o'clock on, and the downstairs floor from 5 o'clock. The drawing schedule of the games is as follows: Pi Beta Phi and Alpha Delta Pi against Kappa Alpha Theta; Alpha Xi Delta against Alpha Chi Omega; Faculty team against Alemannia; Kappa Kappa Gamma; Kappa Kappa Kaline; Pi against Brush League; Sigma Kappa against Pi Beta; W. A. A. Board against Twelfth District and the Patterson Club. SPORT BEAMS Twenty-six basketball teams are playing intra-mural basketball at the University of Texas. There are three leagues the inter-fraternity, inter-class and inter-hall. The Ohio State quintet sprung one of the biggest surprises of the Big Ten season Saturday when it knocked the Northwestern University team from the lead in the Western Conference race by winning, 30-24. Wisconsin and Minnesota are now tied for the lead, each team having won five games and lost two. Michigan has cinched last place with eight successive defeats. Pennsylvania University has practically cinched the championship in the eastern intercollegiate basketball race. Princeton stands second and Cornell, Yale, Columbia and Dartmouth follow in the order named. One point which looks good for the Kansas relay team is the fact that Camp Funston, in defeating Missouri, hung up a record of three minutes, 42 4-5 seconds for the four quarters, while Nebraska, in beating Kansas, stepped the mile in 3 minutes, 41 2-5 seconds. This would indicate that the Jayhawker relay team is just about as fast as the Tigers. Training Begins Early to be Out Of Way for Baseball Contests Coach Bond Calls Men For Spring Football Practice at 4 o'Clock Spring football practice will start at the University this afternoon. Coach Jay Bond has issued a call for all football men in the University to report at McCook Field at 4 o'clock today. Especially are the old men urged to come to these spring football practices. Suits will be checked out from McCook Field sheds. Football practice will last for four weeks and will then make way for baseball. Many of the best football men are it appears to have thought best to have football practice early, so as not to interfere Most of the players of last season are still in school, but many will be unable to return next year on account of military service. Already Jack Frost and Harry Nielsen, last season's captain, have left for active service and Frank Mandeleva is awaiting his call. Ruble, the great halfback, is now in the School of Medicine at Rosedale. Nettles will be back at tackle but the other tackler will have to come from the freshman eleven or from the old second string man. Lonberg and Scott, present captain, will hold delimited end roles, while Jones, and Woody are back for the guard positions. Fat Dennis is now in Washington University at St. Louis.

Hull is still in school to hold down the center of the line. In the backfield, there is Foster at quarter, Pringle, at left half, and Mandeville at the opposite half, from the regular team of 1917. Bunn, another good man, is back for a backfield position, however, he may have to take the place of Foster if the great Kansas quarter is unable to return to school next fall. Of the old Varsity eleven, there is still Webb, Knoles, Harms, and Humpty Wilson left to pick from. Besides these there are many excellent freshman football players who are expected to increase the strength of the team. Pierce Pleases K. U. Dancers. The group of music makers at K. U. has been enriched by the addition of a new drummer, Willard Pierce, e'21, of Kansas City. Pierce played his initial engagement with "Chuck Shofstall" at the piano, Friday night at the Bill-Board Ball at F. A. U. Hall. He has had considerable experience in orchestral playing having played with several Kansas City orchestras, one of which is Haley's, perhaps the most popular pianist engaged for K. U. parties. His playing is vigorous and characterized by a snappy jazz-time which brought expressions of the approval from Friday night's dancers. The most frequent heard expression was "isn't he a marvel?" The first annual concert by the University orchestra, Frank E. Kendrie, conductor, will be in Fraser Hall next Friday night. Mrs. Evelyn Olcett, mezzo-soprano; Prof. W. B. Dalton 'cellist, and Ednah Hopkins, violinist, are the soloists. WOODSTOCK P.D.

Home Economics Work Commended as Vocation By Alumnae Committee NUMBER 102 Textile Field is Expanding Demonstration Agents Recognized as Necessary Adjunct Of Modern Life Work in Home Economics is recommended as offering many opportunities for college women, according to the report of the vocational guidance of the Kansas branch of the Association of College graduate Alumnes. Just now, the camps and hospital are particularly anxious to obtain the services of trained and expert dietitians. Women interested in home economics are advised to consider this special branch seriously, as there promises to be an ever-increasing demand for such work in the future. Demonstration agents, too, are coming to be recognized as necessary adjuncts of our modern life. This work is done under government control, and is done only where the individuals concerned express a desire to have it done. It consists of teaching individual home-keepers the hygienic preparation of food and scientific management of the home. This branch of the work offers more attention just at the present. The last however, requires more special training. Social service work under the auspices of the United Charities, is also recommended. In this work the demonstrator goes into the poorer homes, particularly the tenements of the larger cities, and gives the same instruction that the demonstration agent does. Work that involves the knowledge of textiles offers a field that is small but that gives promise of enlargement. Women with this knowledge can be the larger department stores, and also in chemical work in laundries. Fine Arts Students Make Thrift Posters For Savings Campaign Women intending to enter any phase of this work are advised to prepare for it early in the college course by taking biology, chemistry, and physiology. Textile work or interior decorating demands a course in elementary art, and a reading knowledge of French and German is practically essential to a worker in any branch of home economics. Positions are open, too, for interior decorators, managers of tea-rooms, and dietitians in dormitories of schools, and other institutions where they work. Teachers will be fed daily. Teachers, of course, will be in demand in this subject. As Prizes President's Letter Will be Highest Reward—Certificates As Prizes Classes in drawing and painting in the School of Fine Arts are giving all their time this week to the patriotic service of designing posters to promote the sale of War Savings Stamps. This is a part of the program to students in all schools and colleges in the United States. The posters are to follow three themes. First, the idea of patriotism and the necessity of supplying the government with credit; second, the virtue of thrift; and third, the idea of thought and practice that will not require the production of non-essentials but will release labor and goods to the production of essentials and all that is required to support our armies in the field and win the war. Blue, used by the War Department in its advertising campaign must be one of the colors used. The first prize in each of these themes is twelve War Savings Certificates, the second five War Savings Certificates and the third three Certificates. President Wilson will write a letter of commendation to the winners of the highest prizes. A national jury will make awards. The posters must be completed by May 1. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 5, 1918. Save the quarters and see the not- lars grow. Buy War-Savings stamps War Diplomacy is Theme Of Forum's Discussion Diplomacy of the war will be discussed by Prof. W, W. Davis, associate professor of history, at the regular meeting of the Women's Forum which will be held Thursday afternoon, March 7, at 3 o'clock in Room 110, Fraser Hall. After this week the Forum meetings will probably be changed to Wednesday afternoons. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY Treating diplomatically with the Bobovskii is like buying a harm from a traitor lived in it over night. *New York Sun* The Texas Legislature has ratified the national prohibition amendment. Austrian troops carried out several successful raids on the German trenches Sunday. Quakers and Seven Day Adventists will be drafted for non-combatant services, says Provost Marshal Crowder. Japan is expected to act alone in Siberia at once, now that the Russo-German peace treaty has been signed and action becomes imperative. Germany has occupied the Aland Islands as a preliminary to the seizure of Finland. Sweden has protected vigorously against this action. The Iowa State College has a voluntary company of infantry which is to have the distinction of a patriotic name. It is to be called "Lincoln's Rifles." The Food Administration has suspended the meatless meal, requiring only the abstaining from beef and pork on Tuesdays, and restricting the use of pork on Saturdays. The Senate committee which is investigating the German-American Alliance has obtained evidence that this organization has petitioned Congress for an embargo on arms. General Pershing has referred to the War Department for review the case of four American soldiers, under sentence of death for being caught asleep while on sentry duty in the first line trenches. The American prisoners which the Germans claim to have taken are believed to be members of a patrol party which went out during the recent raid and did not return. Six Americans were decorated by Premier Clemenceau. M. Pichon, the French foreign minister, has made public a message received from Germany just before war was declared in which the German's asked for the fortresses of Toul and Verdun as a pledge for France's neutrality in case of Germany's going to war with Russia. The big show will begin under the main top, a tent of heavy, water proof canvas, promptly at 8 o'clock. The performance is absolutely uncensored, high-class and perilous. The wonderful band is composed of the celebrated musicians of the country who have a program of popular and stirring selections. They will play during the entire performance. Genius Joins Jungle In Exotic Promenade The three huge rings will be governed by the marvelous ring-master, Katherine Reding. One of the champion Hula dancers of the country is offering one of her special numbers. A daring bareback rider, fearless and brave, prepares to nerve-stirring feats are scheduled to stir sawdust and ruin coifures. Barkers have been enjoined against mendacious advertising by the management which at the last moment guarantees the absolute truth of every one of its claims as to the show. The big parade of the Wild And Awful Circus will start at 7:30 sharp Wednesday evening, rain or shine and the side shows will proceed immediately afterwards. A section for stragglers has not been provided. The Chemistry Club will meet Wednesday night at 7:30 o'clock in the Chemistry Building. Prof. F. B. Dains will speak about the K. U. chemistry library. Proceeds from Concert Will Help Club Make Trip to Funston Seventy-Five Women Will Sing in Annual Concert at F.A.U.

Group of Lithographs On Exhibition Here Work by Birger Sandzen to be Shown in Ad, Building Wednesday An exhibition of lithographs will be opened by Prof. W. A. Griffith in the Administration Building Wednesday. The collection contains about forty lithographic productions of Birger Sanden, professor of Aesthetics and Dean of the School of Fine Arts in Bethany College Lindsburg. Mr. Sanden was born in Sweden, but has lived in Kansas since 1894. He is a member of several art societies and has received prizes at various The lithographs are produced by means of the use of greasy substances for sketching on stone. The consistency of the lithographic ink on the stone is such that when a moist paper is pressed against this stone surface an exact reproduction of the sketch is printed. These prints may be made many times from the same stone. Often the original sketch is made on paper with the greasy substance and then transferred to the stone, from which the prints are made. A great many of Mr. Sanden's lithographs are made from scenes in Kansas and the Colorado boulder region. Alumni Asks Support Of Kansas Club Women Copies of the resolutions have been mailed to many prominent women of the state, and a campaign to enlist their support will be put on. They will be asked to make this bill their special enterprise for the coming election, and to present it in context to the bill in order that the higher schools may be taken out of politics and allowed to grow as they should after the present war. At the annual dinner of the Kansas City Alumni chapter of the University held in Kansas City recently, resolutions were made appealing to the women of Kansas, especially the club women of the state, for support of the Permanent Income Bill which will be submitted to the voters at the next election. It is felt by friends of the bill that a strong influence for its passage can be exerted by the women of the state. Theta Sigma Phi will hold its regular meeting at 3 o'clock Thursday, in the Woman's Rest Room, Fraln Hall. Doctor Charles Cestre To Speak for France Wednesday at 4 P.M. French Speaker is Considered Man of High Scholarly Attainments Dr. Charles Cresto, exchange professor at Harvard, from the University of Bordeaux, will address the students of the University in Green Hall Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock on "Fourquoi Nous Nous Battons." All women's classes in the department of physical education will be excused for the lecture. Men who desire to attend the lecture will be given permits by applying at the gymnasium office. Professor Cestre, France's literary ambassador from the front, was born and bred in France, graduating from her foremost university pursuing graduate work and crowned by degrees in the best universities in England and the United States. He has long been known not only as a distinguished professor of English literature, but on Anglo-French relations and the tremendous issues that have cemented the allies in the Entente Cordiale of the great war. At a national meeting of modern languages professors at Yale in December, Professor Crestre, speaking English without the slightest trace of accent, delivered an address that, in point of subject, is in agreement with his style and design, was considered the most scholarly and artistic effort of the convention. Professor Cestre's lecture on France's view of the great struggle for world-emancipation will be under the suspices of the Alliance Francais, and will be open to the public. He will speak in French. Chancellor on Program of Community Institute Professor Elmer Will Talk on Results of Social Survey Chancellor Frank Strong and Prof M. C. Elmer of the department of sociology went to Clay Center today to make speeches at the War Conference and Community Institute to be held there March 5, 6 and 7. This Institute is held under the auspices of the University Extension Division in co-operation with the Speakers Bureau of the Kansas State Council of Defense, the Food Administration, the department of sociology of the University of Kansas, Kansas State Agricultural College, State Board of Health, and the local Extension Center Association. Final for Loving Cup Will be Played in Robinson Gymnasium March 20 Dates Set for Games In Intramural Contest Chancellor Strong will speak on "Readjustments to Meet War Emergencies," on Wednesday evening and Professor Elmer will speak both Wednesday and Thursday. His lectures are "Our Community" and "A Greater Clay Center." During the conference there will be a display of the results of the social survey of Clay Center which Professor Elmer made during the Christmas vacation. The first round of games in the Intramural basketball tournament will be played March 12 with these teams contesting; Pi Phi-Apha Delta Pi vs. Kappa Alpha Theta, Alpha Xi Delta vs. Alpha Chi Omega, Faculty vs. Alemania, Kappa Kappa Gamma vs. W.

The semi-finals are scheduled for March 18 and 19 cup will be played in loving love will be played March 20. Practice begins today for the teams playing March 12. Each team will be allowed five practices. Managers of these teams which are scheduled to play on March 15 are asked to confer with Miss Pratt at once concerning practice hours. The entire second ficeor of the gymnasium is available at 3 o'clock each afternoon and at 7 o'clock in the evening. Send the Daily Kansan Home. W. A. A. Members Draw Clever Circus Posters Some clever posters for the W. A. A. circus, March 6, are on exhibition in the various buildings. There are clowns in yellow, red and green; tall ones, short ones, lean ones, fat ones; clowns who walk and run and tumble; dancing girls in every color of the rainbow; and acrobats who amaze you. These posters are all original work. Some are in water colors; some in pen and ink work. One is done in oil. They were made by members of the W. A. A. Those on display were contributed by Miriam Jones, Helen Pearls, Mildred Shone, Ruth Ellis, and Doris Drought. Plain Tales From The Hill SPRING HITS THE BARD The blood is swelling in my veins, A poet, The bluebirds flit across my range of perceptual observations. And robins sing. Nocturnal carolers besiege my dreams; And spring is here. One of the Sigma Nu's hunted up a flashlight cartridge the other night. When all the rest of the fraternity was asleep, along about 1 o'clock in the morning, he took his fiendish cartridge and set it off. I love them not. My galoshes tread the muddy streets Yes, spring is come. Instructors e'en forget To hold their classes overtime While watching out the windows which vernal rains have scrubbed: Oh, sure it's spring! Weather predictions heed not For ah, 'tis spring. Members of the cast of the dramatic art class were giving a play Monday afternoon in which they were supposed to quaff spicy beer from tall steins. They didn't it. They used ginger ale instead. Ginger ale, y' know, has the stored up energy and vim of a Vesuvius. The house stretched itself and yawned. Then it rushed to the lower story room where the smoke was billowing about in fantastic shapes. The expected bomb was not found. THAT'S WHAT ALE'S THEM The amateur Booths and Addamss began to remove the cap before taking the bottle on the stage. It fizzed, that is, the ale did. The fixtures of the ante-room were spattered with the fiery liquid. What is worse, a can of powder upset in the liquid pool on the floor. The leading man didn't get all the powder he wanted, or ginger ale, either. Men at the University of Missouri are observing razorless days. A bewhiskered K. U. man said this morning that students here observe razorless days, sometimes several days in succession. The trouble, he said, is that we don't have any system; a special day set aside for the purpose would give a uniformity of appearance. A Kansas Cub dived into the effec breathlessly this morning. He had found a story of a University student who was doing a most unusual thing. Other Universities, said the Cub, were apt to lure him away from K. U. if he was not persuaded to stay here. This student, instead of spreading a lot of pencil lead on the arms of classroom chairs, had reversed pencil and was destroying the rubber end by quietly obliterating a few of the marks that were there. Terrill to Use Rescue Car in Work at Prison The Daily Kansan-a daily letter home. Permission was granted to Prof. A C. Terrill of the department of mining engineering at the University of Kansas, to bring Rescue Car No. 4, now in Oklahoma to Lansing, Kansas, where he has been doing work in connection with his program to make coal mining less obvious to prisoners in the state penitentiary. Professor Terrill has been studying conditions at Lansing two days of the week for nearly a month. Professor Terrill was in Washington, D. C., last week and while there received this permission from the United States Bureau of Mines. The car carried various exhibits and devices along with some excellent motion pictures. Triangular Debaters Oppose Oklahoma and Colorado Teams Friday Affirmative Talks Against Oklahoma While Negative Argues With Colorado First Woman Gets on Squad Power of Federal Courts to Declare Congressional Acts Unconstitutional The members of the teams which will represent the University in the triangular debate with Oklahoma and Colorado Friday, March 8, have been announced by Prof. H. T. Hill who has been coaching the squads. Only one veteran is in the squads this year and for the first time in the history of the University a woman is on a Varsity team. She is Mary McCain18 whose work on the squad has had such strength as to win her the position of second speaker on the affirmative square which meets Colorado. The members of the affirmative squad besides Miss Bean are Robert Albach and Edward Mason. The negative team meeting Oklahoma at Norman is composed of Herman Hangen, E. G. Smith, and William Wilson. The negative team will leave for Norman Friday. The subject of a debate this year is Resolved that Formal Court of the United States should be deprived of the power to declare acts of congress unconstitutional. Kansas will debate the affirmative side of the question at Lawrence against the Colorado negative team. The same night the Kansas negative team will meet Oklahoma at Norman, and the Oklahoma and Colorado teams will debate at Boulder. The second day of two debates to be held this year. A debate with Missouri will be held in April. The names of the judges will probably be announced Wednesday, according to instructors in the department of public speaking. The judges here will be from Kansas City. Ten K. U. Men In France Register at American University Club Paris Students in France Are Urged To Stay at Union's Hotel A letter was received by Chancellor Frank Strong this morning from the American University Union in Paris giving the names of the young men from the University of Kansas who are in France and have registered at the Union headquarters. The men are William L. Wilam, I. Aisworth "14, H. C. Mullin "13, S. T. Millard "06, Albert M. Murphy "17, Ben H. Nichel "10, Roy Stockwell "11, Francis Q. Wilson "13, M. White "04. The University joined the Union recently and the directors are asking the Chancellor io send the names of its students who are in France in order that they may be informed the University is helping to provide a place for its men where they may go and feel at home. The headquarters has the privilege of a simple club for college men and their friends passing room. The staff passing room. The privileges include an information bureau, writing and news paper room, library, dining room, bed rooms, baths, social features, opportunities for physical recreation, entertainments, and medical service. The Royal Palace Hotel at 8 Rue de Richelieu, which has just recently been built, has been chartered by the Union. It is in the heart of the great boulevard district and is easily accessible from all parts of Paris. It is near the Louvre and the Tuileries Gardens, and is within a block of the Palais Royal station of the "Metropolitan"—the Paris subway. Any students knowing of relatives or friends from the University who are in France should send their names to Chancellor Strong at once so that the Union may inform them of the advantages offered by the club.

OUR CAMPUS SOLDERIENES TUESDAY, MARCH 5, 1918. A good deal of vicarious soldiering is being done on our campus by students possessed of adjustable consciences who attire themselves in hemi or demi-uniform. Instances are surprisingly and disgustingly numerous. Any civilian, who for any reason whatsoever, does not enlist at this time, certainly has no moral right to usurp clothing or materials which are so badly needed to cloth our fighting forces. The men who have been wearing khaki wool sweaters, for instance, on the campus could not have been ignorant of the fact that the wool supply is scanty, and desperately needed to make sweaters for men in France, or even those in our own training camps. Evidently each was willing to deprive one man in France of a sweater, for a sweater is a sweater; just so many hanks of wool plus so much of someone's time and energy. Those students who are in the second draft and expecting to be called soon are excusable for securing sweaters and wearing them a little ahead of time. But many of these solderines are not expecting, or intending, to encounter any trench cold. The near-martial bearing which some of these simulators of heroism actually seem to take on is pititable and grotesque. The man of so little consideration and a spirit of such caliber is, well, to say it mildly, something of a slacker. Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? A CHANCE FOR TEN HOURS CREDIT The University Summer Session enrollment should climb to unheard of heights at it's opening, June 11, if students consider the urgent need at present of completing their college courses in the shortest possible length of time. Every branch of war service is calling for men and women of college training. All graduates will be needed as soon as they can prepare themselves. The ten weeks session covering from about June 11 to August 22 offers the opportunity for a maximum of ten hour's credit. Over 200 courses will be given, affording a wide choice. Many "war courses," either purely informative, or designed to fit the student for some kind of service, are to be offered. Among the departments offering courses occasioned by the war is that of sociology, which has prepared a course in war relief and home service, and another in applied sociology, with reference to problems of the war. The department of chemistry has courses in gas and oil analysis, and the department of physical education has two courses in military science. An informational course on the origin of the great war is being given by the department of history, and eight courses are to be given in higher mathematics, which are invaluable to the man expecting to enter service. The War Savings Society is going to solicit members at gymnasium classes. Even the lowly gym class is meat to the solicitor these days. FACULTY FOOD FUSSERS Less than two weeks after the Senate passed a ruling which put the men of the University under arms in prescribed military drill, a good solid squad was formed by men of the faculty for similar drill and the work of the squad was progressed creditably since. Last week the Senate passed another measure. The women must attend food conservation lectures given on alternate Wednesdays. At the first lecture ten of the fifty faculty women were in attendance. It is hardly reasonable to expect that those forty other faculty women have such a thorough knowledge of food and the war that they do not need the lectures recommended to this University by the federal government and considered by a wise majority of the Senate absolutely necessary to the 900 women who are students at K. U. True—some of the 900 will preside over their own kitchens before long. But the big thing expected of all is real missionary work of an unobtrusive nature. And a teacher is especially endowed by nature and training for this very business of helping others to understand and to do things Many faculty men will soon be able to take a squad of men and give them preliminary training for service. It might be considered the better part of women patriotism if as many faculty women would make themselves able to explain and demonstrate in an efficient and practical manner the concrete aids for solving for folks right here at home in Kansas the big problems of food plus war. RedCrossNews FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF US ARE ENLISTED About 250 schools in St. Louis have enrolled 150,000 school children in the Red Cross Junior membership. A call from Washington has been issued to Junior Red Crossers. They have been asked to furnish garments for 18,000 refugees. Kansas has grown in Red Cross chapters from 53 July 1st to 123, Feb. 18, 1918. Vice admiral Beeson of the French navy says, "What the American Red Cross is doing you know as well as I; there is no need of talking about it. It does not talk—it acts." If you are a girl; if you look well in a nurse costume; if you do like the idea of taking care of a handsome lieutenant you will be interested in knowing that in the early part of December and February groups of nurse's tides were sent to France to act as assistants to the American Red Cross nurses. The work of these women is with the infantry welfare work and French repatriates. There is no soap and little hot water in France. That is the one reason that careful selection of garments sent to refugees must be made. The colors must be somber and the cloth substantial, for it will receive hard wear. It is not economical to send second-hand clothing because the cost of shipment will be"just as great and the wear not so long as that of new. Besides it will be good for the women of the University to wear out their own old clothes for once. Spend, but spend wisely; save, and save earnestly; buy War-Savings Stamps! It will take a brave man, indeed, to visit his old home town again before seeing and taking the dimensions of the fellow townman, Mr. Jess Willard. Hilltop Philosophy It is a graft if the shinker—not the worker—get rich by it. A pupil in the Philadelphia city schools made the following discoveries: "The human body is made up of the head, the thorax and the abdomen. The head contains the brain when there is any; the thorax contains the heart and the lungs; the abdomen contains the bowels, of which their are five, A. E. I. O. and U, and sometimes W. and Y." As a rule the professor who is not stingy with words of appreciation and encouragement gets the most satisfactory work from his classes. Many a student on the point of throwing his books in the corner and starting for home has taken up his work anew and made a success of it, encouraged to do so by the sympathetic words of some professor. A stock complaint of the business world has been that the scarcest article on the market is an industrious young man. But have you noticed that since the war began that worthless boys and young men are on the decrease? Nearly everyone is enrolled in the Army or the industrial forces of the Nation. The young man in either who is energetic and willing to work will have no cause to complain in the future. Quoth Senior to Frosh "So you're not going to the 'Y party tonight?' said the Senior as he looked into the Freshie's room. "Going to grind, huh? You say not? Well I'll be darned. Haven't a blmped thing to do, but just don't want to go. You're a fine guy! Planning to be one of these hermit fellows who lived in ye' good old days," are you? In ye' good old days, are you to mix with the "common herd?" Fraid your sweet little self will get contaminated. Or maybe you don't want to show up the rest of the folks by your superior gray matter. "Listen, Kid, I'm giving it to you straight;—get out and do a little mixing. Don't suppose it'll do the other people much good, but it will put a new shine on you. Yes of course you can go through the University and associate only with your class rooms and the library. Others have done it. I've seen 'em. They think they know it all; but they're like a half baked potato, still raw on the one side. You don't want to finish up like that do you?

Beauty Race Twenty-two Women are Seeking Honor in "Our Kansas Girl" Rivalry Half of the minines in the "Our Kansas Girls" contest withdrawed this morning, leaving the field to twenty-two candidates. The majority withdrew were sorority sisters of candidates, and withdrawed in order that their organization might center its votes on one candidate. The following candidates remain in the contest: Frances Adams, Earline Allen, Harriet Brush, Marie Buchanan, Jessie Buck, Lila Clark, Hazel Cook, Drew Diveley, Helen Govier, Marion Holmes, Josephine Huoni, Mike Akon, Louise Lane, Lynn Lyman, David Paley, Rae Riley Fork Skar, Mylle Steen, Elisean Van Zandt, Genevieve Dorothy Wiggins, and Jessie Wwatt. "Additional candidates may be placed in the race at any time by casting a balloon for them," said Don Davis, contest manager, in commenting on the progress of the race. "The names announced yesterday were those which had been presented in petitions; but we did not intend that only girls nominated by petition should be allowed to compete." The number of ballots cast today in the ballot boxes, at the Jayhawker office and at the Jayhawker Bulletin Board, was large. The boxes will be opened this afternoon at 4 o'clock by Prof. L. N. Flint, and the initial standing of the contestants determined. Subsequent announcements of standings will be made daily. The list will be posted in the Jayhawker Bulletin Board.

Prof. Frank E. Kendrie will conduct the Orchestra. At present there are twenty-eight players: ten violins, one viola, two cellos, one bass, three flutes, two trumpets, one bassoon, two trumpets, one trombone, two horns, drums and organ. An interesting program has been prepared, consisting of standard orchestral numbers. The soloists will be Mrs. Evelyn Olcott, mezzo-soprano Prof. W. B. Dalton, cellist, Ednah Hopkins, violinist. "Admission will be 35 cents," said Professor Kendrie th's morning but student tickets will be accepted. Tickets will not be sold previous to the entertainment but will be on sale at the door. Need Surgical Dressings No Reserve in France "Every list of American wounder means more supplies needed by the American Red Cross in France," said Miss Margaret Lynn today in speaking of last week's work in the surgical dressing class, "and the attendance at the afternoon classes for University women has not been as good as it might be if the women realized the urgent demand for these compresses and other articles." Miss Lymn said the room could accommodate twice as many workers as now attend. Various meetings held in the afternoon last week interfered with the usual amount of dressings made. "It is not absolutely necessary for the girls to come all afternoon," continued Miss Lynn, "even one hour's work would contribute from 5 to 10 compresses, and we want to turn in 1,000 this week." Anybody is welcome to come to the class any time between 3 and 6 o'clock. The American Red Cross has no reserve of compresses, and the hospitals are dependent upon the constant supply of them from America. Checkmate Seat Sales Give Red Cross $100 One-hundred dollars is the estimated amount to be given to the Red Cross from the seat sales of "The Checkmate." Because of back debts from the play, "Under Cover," of last year the contribution to the Red Cross is only half as large as it would otherwise be. The total receipts for "The Checkmate" were five-hundred dollars. The expenses of putting it on amounted to three hundred dollars. Not all the bills have been sent in to Mr. Hull yet.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 5,1918 Kansas Defeats Aggies Wins First of Finals In Last Hope Come-Back Miller Retrieves First Half with Seven Successive Goals in Second Period Coach Hamilton's Hawkeyws, by a wonderful spurt in the last five minutes of play, defeated the Kansas Aggies last night by a 35-33 score in the first game of the final series of the season, and they went throughout the first half and the period ended with the score 21-1 in favor of the Aggens. The Farmers started another drive at the beginning of the second half and increased their lead to 16 points. Then the Jayhawkers began their big rally and every member of the Crimson and Blue quintet began hitting the basket. Miller, who had played raggedly in the first half, came back and shot seven field goals in the last period, many of them in association. Serubby Laslett and Matthews chipped in with an avalanche of field goals and the Jayhawkers drew into the lead just as the contest ended. Miller was easily the star of the game, caging eight goals from the field. Captain Vantrine of the Aggie team was second in individual scoring with six shots from the field and Whedon also of the Aggies followed with five. Dutch Uhrlaub caged five free throws in eight chances and tossed a couple of field goals. The box score follows: Kansas. (35.)

Ray, who holds the American title in the mile, mile-and a-half and two mile races, upheld his great reputation by easily winning the 1000-yard handicap race from scratch and lapping every runner except Foreman of the Aggies in the mile.

Words of Sage Apply To Follies' Featur Once There Was a Sage Who Gave a Simp Some Advice. The Advice ran Thusly: "Paddle Your Own Canoe." Used as a Text for Hundreds of Lectures On Success, "Paddle Your Own Canoe" has since become a B-yword in Every Home. Father tells it to Mother When She Ansks Him to bring in the Wood. Mother tells it to Father When He Ansks Her to help Him Weed the Garden. Sister tells it to Mother and Brother tells it to Sister; and Benevolent Employers Have Been Known to Hand It Out to Awe-Struck Employees. It's Darned Good Advice. But All This Is Neither Here nor There. The Point is that "Paddle Your Own Cance" is the Name of a Screaming (that's the Press Agent's Word) One-Act Face which is to be given (for a Consideration) at the K. U. Follies Next Week.

In return the audience wondered if this concert would be exactly like every other glee club concert it had heard in all its experiences and unexpected—exactly, too. It wasn't. There was real music, as promised. But there were other things—a musical reading by Elaine Wharton, a little sketch well done, some more music of good quality and at the end a noisy jazzy rattle band. Roeattie Rowe and the band were in her hat, was the band leader. Marie Buchanan rendered a solo on her music 'cello.' The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY Thanks to the war, the newspapers can describe it as a military wedding now without making everyone mad.—Elbert Severance. The Allies have practically agreed to give Japan a free hand to intervene in Siberia. The American forces in France require 25,000 more pieces of heavy artillery. Twenty-six Austrian officers and men were killed by an avalanche in the Alps. A shortage of torpedoes in Germany is said to be restricting the operations of her submarines. President Wilson has appointed over the docks of two German steamship companies at Hoboken, N. J. No American soldiers of German or Austrian birth will be permitted to go to France. Armour and Company report a decrease of twenty-five per cent in the consumption of meat, due to meatless lays. President iWilson has appointed Bernard M. Baruch as head of the War Industries Board and has increased the powers of the board. The War Department has announced that the United States will sue a new badge of honor for bounds received in action. Several army camps report the need of guide books for use among the soldiers going to France.

"Photographs of all candidates are also wanted, for display which will be placed in the Jayhawker bulletin board Friday morning. Most of the candidates who have taken their photographs; but those who have not should do so at once." Thirty-eight solicitors are now in the field, working for themselves or for friends, and the subscription list of the Jayhawker grows every hour. "We need more solicitors, however," said Harry Morgan, editor of the Jayhawker, "and those candidates or friends of candidates who want to solicit for subscriptions and votes should see Manager Don Davis in the Jayhawker office at once, and get subscription books. Two ballot boxes are placed on the campus for the receipt of voting coupons. One is stationed at the Jayhawker bulletin board, opposite the University bulletin board, and the other is on the manager's desk in the Jayhawker office in the news room of the Daily Kansan building. Jayhawker office hours are from 10 to 11 a.m. and from 2 to 4 p.m. Here, Girls, is a Way To Help Carry on "I wish I was a Red Cross nurse, or an ambulance driver or something so I could help some more in relief from incarcerations K. U. woman to a friend. "You don't have to have four years' training as a nurse, or know a thing about automobiles to do a lot to help you get right here now," relied her friend. "Well, what are you going to do with those old rubbers you can't use, with talcum powder cans, and cold cream jars you will throw away? Why don't you suggest to your men friends to save for you the tin-foil wrappings of cigarette packages? You have heard about this salvage plan but you haven't taken it to hear. He's a good job as stonger than you and you don't have to have any training for it. You know the things the committee on the salvage work wants, get them and turn them in." "Go ahead with your impossible plan," said the first girl. "These collections are to be sold, and the money used for buying supplies for the surgical dressing classes of the Red Cross on the Hill, and since you live in Kansas City, you can further help by taking small quantities of the salvage to the Red Cross headquarters there. Call Lucene Spencer, chairman of the committee on salvage. No. 99 and she will give you any further information." "How will that help relief work?" was the puzzled inquiry. Mr. J. H. A.

Kansas Debaters Work Out Points for Rebuttal In Friday's Contest "Capable of Meeting Best Op ponents Can Present," Says Coach H. T. Hill The debating teams have their speeches worked into shape for the triangular debate Friday night, and are now working out the rebuttal points. "The teams this year are capable of meeting the best our opponents can put out," said Prof. H. T. Hill, who is coaching the teams. "Although only one veteran debater is back, the new debaters have gone deep into the question and the teams are up to the usual high standard of Kansas debating teams." On the affirmative team that will meet Colorado here, Robert Albach is the first speaker. Albach had two years' experience on the Lawrence high school team and has done much work in the public speaking departments in his three years in the University. Marjorie Bean, the second speaker, holds the honor of being the first woman in the Missouri Valley to be on an inter-college debating team. She has had previous debating experience in high school and at the University of Washington. Edward Mason, who speaks last for the affirmative also was on Lawrence high school debating teams. Mason has been active in debating work in the K. U. Debating Society, and was last授课 last semester in the debating class. The negative team that goes to Oklahoma has the only man experienced in inter-collegiate debates. This is William H. Wilson, who took part in the Kansas-Nebraska debate last year and be the last speaker for the negative. The first speaker on the negative is Herman Hangen. Hangen has had high school debating experience and has been prominent in dramatic work in the University, E. G. Smith the second speaker, is a senior in the University of Wisconsin law degree of law makes him a valuable member of the team in this question.

Professor Davis to Talk On Diplomacy of the War Prof. W. W. Davis of the department of history will address the Women's Forum on Diplomacy of the War at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon in Room 110 Fraser Hall. This is one of a series of lectures in regard to the war which are being given to the war by our own professors. The Forum has made arrangements for weekly periodicals to be placed in the Women's Rest Room regularly for use by all women. Plain Tales From The Hill It was an oral quiz in economics. Professor Ise: "Is it true, Miss Rising, that the Federal Reserve Notes are also elastic, as Shofstall said?" The most unpopular job around a fraternity or sorority house is that of steward. It gets more knocks than all the other offices put together, according to those most vitally interested in the knocks, namely, those who are knocked. Miss Rising: "Why, Professor Ise, I was just going to ask you about that." Sir steward beat it away from the house, "it" referring to the instrument of infliction, and did not return until the threatening brother departed. He fooled the crowd, but warnings he has received indicate that there will be more to this tale later. Professor of sociology: "Our parents used to have to sneak off to read a novel or a love story, but now we can give our child a nickel, and he will go and see a more thrilling love story in motion pictures, with a lot of other people." The steward at the Kanza house one day got the drift of a little political talk that on Saturday he would get his, if the meal was not up to specified requirements, "his" not being served. The menu clearly clear for the steward. Saturday came, and the steward prepared the menu to suit himself. Concealed voice in the back row "Show us the theater." The salvage box in Fraser Hall is swelling in content. Some University women are so anxious to add their bit to the conglomeration of articles salvaged, that they are buying candy wrapped in tin foil and are dropping the wrappings in the box. the members of the University; faculty interested in Swedish have received their annual consignment to boxes of snuff. This is but a part of a nation-wide propaganda in which a company sends samples of the sneezey tobacco to instructors in Swedish at universities, American colleges and universities. Pressing Engagements At Westminster Hall Snuff may be thought to be necessary to speaking the Scandinavian tongue, but students in the classes hope it is not included in their curriculum. With spring and marbles for the small boy a fever creeps into the system of the women of the University and hunting out thimbles and needles, they prepare to sew. Knowing this phenomenon to be one of annual recurrence, the Woman's Student Welfare League has provided for it. Edna Burch, with her assistants, and several women of the faculty, have completed preparations for a sewing room, fitted up with electric irons and other convenient paraphernalia which will solve mending, sewing, pressing, and other clothes problems easily. The arrangements are for something more permanent than the spring fever for sewing. The Woman's Student Welfare League is an organization which has developed a system W. C. A. Social Service Committee. This sewing room is in Westminster Hall. In connection with it there is a store room. The W. S. W. L. is a new activity on the hill but it is one which goes on record as a regular catalogued student organization. Spoke on French Newspapers Prof. D. L.

No University Credit For Work Substituted For Military Service Senate Awaits Federal Call for Farm Labor, Before Taking Action High Schools Accommodated Students May Have Freshman Standing if Work is Properly Accredited Until there is a general call issued by the government for men to work on the farms of Kansas, the University of Kansas will not grant full academic credit to students who withdraw from school for agricultural work. Indications are that if such an urgent call is issued, the school authorities will grant the credit as was the case last year. Action to this effect was taken at the meeting of the University Senate yesterday afternoon. Men will be granted credit if they are actual students or government service services the country in keeping with a resolution passed last fall. MUST ENTER ACTUAL SERVICE The resolution passed yesterday is: "That it is the sense of the Senate that full credit should be granted only to such students as enter into actual military or naval service of the United States, and that the Senate does not consider it expedient at the present time to grant credit for substitute work." Members of the Senate understood that substitute work meant any sort of work which was handled by University men in place of the men who had gone into the service. The same ruling was enforced last year when K. U. men were given credit when they had done their occupations who had gone into the service and left their positions vacant. CREDIT K. C. HIGH STUDENTS Students from the Kansas City, Missouri, high schools will be admitted to the University of Kansas if they leave school before the regular graduating time providing that have the approval of the high school from which they graduated. A resolution to this effect was adopted by a committee today after the Senate had given it power to act. This was done at the request of the Kansas City high schools which asked both the University of Kansas and the University of Missouri to allow graduation from their class to enter the freshman class although they had left school in April and May with the permission of the schools to do farm work. No Salary for Faculty On Leave of Absence Dean Olin Templin and Prof. W. C. Stevens in Government Service at Washington Crestre's Later Speech In English, 5:15 p. m. On account of the large number of persons in the state institutions desiring leave of absences, the Board of Administration has found it necessary to change its order of leave of absence with salary for Dean Olin Templin of the College and Prof. W. C. Stevenson of the department of biology to leave of absence without salary. professor Stevens will return to he University within a few days and to as much of his research work for he Government Raw Products Commission as is possible to do here. It is likely that Dean Templin will remain at Washington to work with the Food Administration under Herbert Hoover. Professor Cestre who lectures in French this afternoon will give a subsequent speech in the Little Theater, Green Hall, in English at 5:15 o'clock. The later speech will be in extension of what he has to say in French. Quill Club will meet Thursday evening at 8:15 o'clock in the Rest Room in Fraser Hall. The regular weekly meeting of the German Verein will be held Thursday, at 3 p.m., in Fraser Hall, Room 313. The program will be furnished by the students. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 6, 1918.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1918. Have you a little SALVAGE BAS- KET in your home? CONSERVE VACATION TIME The high school senior is offered an ideal opportunity to start his college work with the Summer Session. This term is coming more and more to be recognized as one of the regular semesters of work at the University. There is no logical reason, says Dean F. J. Kelly, director of the Summer Session, why college students should take a three month's vacation during summer months, when such is not the custom among business and professional men. Especially at this time, when each month sees greater need of trained men and women for service both abroad and at home, either in or out of uniform, it is up to high school seniors to prepare themselves to do something worth while as quickly as possible. Many students can be of little use at home during summer months. The University is offering them the chance to spend this time profitably. Personal interest and supervision of the student's work by instructors is possible to a greater degree in the summer because classes are small. This makes the beginning of college work easier for the student who, because of poor high school training, sometimes finds his work very difficult if he starts in at the crowded fall semester. The attention of the student is concentrated on two or three courses only. Full library facilities are available while the number of students is only a third of its normal strength. Choice of boarding and lodging houses is greater. High school graduates, beginning their college course in June, attending two subsequent Summer Sessions and three winters will be graduated in three years, thus saving one year's time. Really superior advantages and the practical saving of time combine to make the beginning of the Summer Session a particularly advantageous time to enter the University. Take this message back home Easter. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He went to the theater and left the lights burning in his own room. Of course he had paid for his rent and he could treat his room as he pleased, but he was not conserving or saving fuel for his country. Such a trifling matter yet if every student would do the same— MID-SEASON SLUMP Spring and romance, summer and parting, fall and knitting—this was the program of most University women in the first year of America's war. Then came winter and gradual cessation of labor, steady decline of patriotic achievement. The knitting bag with its splotchy colors, the ball of yarn wound on bracelets, both according to prescribed and breathlessly obeyed fashion, have gone the way of things ephemeral. No more is knitting tucked under the arm, no more is heart upon the sleeve. Are the women of the University of Kansas such flimsy butterflies that they knit only as a passing fancy, and not for the men who have shouldered guns and joined the van of Pershing? In the hour that men are men indeed, have women forgotten their womaniness and become womannish? There is an answer. That answer is a categorical command. Knit! If the women of the United States had kept to their knitting, thousands of men, soldiers in the National Army and sailors in the navy, would not have suffered through the rigorous winter months. Knit! The men over there must be properly clothed for another winter and before the first snow they will have been joined by as many more soldiers of the line. Knit—thou shalt knit! No one is saying this to anyone. Everyone possessed of human consciousness lays the duty on self if self is honest with God, and country, and mankind. Every woman of this University is under obligation to herself to knit during every in-between-moment of her life until the war for her is fought to the end. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He borrowed his friend's typewriter and kept it for two weeks, operating it by means of the one-finger hunt-and-peck method. When he took it back the ribbon was so badly cut that it was useless for further writing, and the only compensation the owner received for the damage was a gruff "much oblited." It's the little things that count. ON OTHER "HILLS" Military drill has now been made compulsory for all men students at Boston University. By the action of the trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, Kaiser Wilhelm and Count Von Bernstorff have been removed from the roll of honor of the University. The Emperor received the degree of L.L. D in 1905, and von Bernstorff in 1911. At Indiana University it is a cherished tradition that the members of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity, shall set the date and be the first to wear straw hats on the campus when the warm days come. Radcliffe College for women is going to organize a farm unit. Last year Vassar, Bryn Mawr, Mt Holyoke and Goucher did notable war work with their farms. Radcliffe has no adequate farm lands of its own, but the unit will be sent to one of the districts where agricultural labor is scarce. MENTAL LAPSES GO YOUR WAY, MR.

Waters of the Kansas City Weekly Star, has a new version of the Biblical incident of David and Goliath, brought down to date in a form that smacks of "Billy" Sunday's interpretation of that incident. Here it is as he uses d' in his poem, "Catholic," for the cadets of Wentworth Military Academy, who attended his church in a body: "In those days, as now, there were wars and rumors of wars. David's rather, Jesse, said; 'Dave, leave the sweep to me; take a day off and sup over the hill to see how the boys on the boys in the trenches are good,' along. As David came up to see the big game, a colossal figure stalked down the hillside, frantically challenging Israel; 'Get out, you inferior lot. Go back home, stay at home; keep off the earth.' "Now, David imaged of Sismamah, his brother: 'Who is this big attf, that he should defy the rimes of the bulls with his might makes right lung?' "Sh! Go slow. That's Kaiser Wil- ium. " 'Shamahm, you remember the day Samuel anointed me? Since then my soul has been on fire; and, by the eternal, there's enough of the . . . Samuel left in me that I can this old Kaiser." "So David gathered his pebbles from the brook and went after his game. And down came that big bluffer, Bill. And David sused the giant's sword into his jugar vein and lifted high his sory head in the face of the enemy. Then he called across: 'Sham, go tell dad to get the neighbor boy to look after the sheep; get Uncle Samuel and come on and meet me in Berlin.'" —Kansas City Star.

Women for Operators In Wireless Service Villis Beltz, Instructor in Radio, Says There May Be Chance for Service "For women, the practical use of the training obtained in the wireless class," said Willis Beltz, instructor in wireless, "will probably never be in government service on a ship. So far only one woman I know of has gone to sea as a radio operator. She was the wife of a senior officer." Mr. Beltz said he believed women would be in great demand as commercial telegraph operators, and the Morse code used in the course he teaches could easily be substituted for the radio system. "There's no telling what branches of government service women may enter in the future," said Mr. Belitz. "Just because up to the present time, there have been no women radio operators, or women in other branches of service such as the signal corps, does not mean there will never be. If the demand is very great, and women can do the work, perhaps there will come a time when women will go to sea." Individual moulds in so many different shapes for ice cream.

Athletics Are Strong At Great Lakes School Writes Coach Olcott work Has Been Hampered by Deep Snow and Quarantine Olcott Will Coach Football Baseball Lineup This Spring Will Include Many Big League Athletics at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station, have been greatly hampered by the deep snow and the strict quarantines according to a letter received from Coach H. P. Occlott. Mr. Olcott who was football coach of the Navy played game last fall and is now athlete instructor at Great Lakes. Since he has been connected with the big training station, it has turned out a near champion football team and now the basketball quintet ranks among the best in the middle west. The Jackie five has defeated Northwestern, until recently the leader in the Big Ten conference race. Chicago defeated Baltimore also defeated. The swimming team representating the station won second in the Central A. A. A. race with Illinois A. A. C. in the lead. BOXING POPULAR AT THE LAKES Boxing is very popular with the Jackies, according to Coach Olcott, and every afternoon the sailors fight ten three-round bouts to a decision. Fifteen professional pugilists and instructors are employed as instructors in the Station and in this way mankind may gain an opportunity to learn the art of self defense from a master. Boxing also is a big assistance in bayonet drill, which, although, not carried on intensely as in the army, is rapidly coming into great popularity at the station. BOXING POPULAR AT THE LAKES Coach Olcott says that a new drill known as the "daily dozen set up," and recommended by Walter Camp, is being used now instead of the Swedish exercises. During the recreation hours, the Jackies play hand and an excellent team has been formed from the experienced skaters. OLCOTT HEAD COACH Coach Olcott has been appointed by the Navy Department Commission on Camp Activities as head coach in charge of all the spring football practice. He will be able to begin outdoor work as soon as the weather permits. Prospects for a good team at the Great Lakes are even better than last year, as the candidates for the team have been reinforced by the recent arrival of Captain Courtney of Ohio State, All- Western tackle last year; Day and Kostitzky, center and guard on the Nebraska last year; Halas of Illinois, and backman, Notre Dame, halfback. The Training Station's schedule includes games next fall with Illinois, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Purdue and other Big Ten eleven. The former Jayhawk coach is also planning to introduce field hockey in the spring, and Doctor Kaufman, head of the athletic department, is counting on putting 100 Jack baseballs on him in the 500-500 men playing baseball at present. BASERALL TEAMS STRONG The Great Lakes baseball team will probably rank among the strongest teams of the country, as such big league stars are Leonard, Washington, third baseman; Johnston, Philadelphia, Athletic, outfielder; Chourinard and Clemons of the White Sox and others are in training at the Station. "With all this wealth of material, the Jackie first team," in the words of Coach Olcott, "should be a bird." Track is also on the boom and a Class A team should be developed, with Eddie Fall, former Oberlin star and Western Conference one and two mile champion, and Knourek, national amateur pole vault record holder, in the field. By Skillful Dribbling Kansas Aggies Defeat Varsity in Last Game Coach Hamilton's Men Unable to Overcome Lead—Final Score 32 to 25 The Kansas basketball team lost the final game of the season to the Kansas Aggies at Manhattan last night in a very rough and ragged contest by a 32-25 score. The Aggies out-played the K. U. five from the start, and were never in danger of being headed. The Aggie forwards scored many of their goals by dribbling the entire length of the court and passing the Kansas guards. Whedon, the Aggie center, was the most proficient at this style of play. Captain Van Trine came from his place at center being taken by Whedon. Van Trine was the individual star of the game, shooting eight field goals and six free throws. The Aggies led at the end of the first half with a 21-13 score. Coach Hamilton sent Fearing in to replace Bunn and immediately replaced Fearing by Knowles. In the last half Foltz replaced Blair for the Aggies and Rice replaced Laslett for Kansas. Laslett was removed from the game by Referee Quigley in the last few minutes of play for talking back to the official.

The clothemaker who has no reputation at stake-no fixed pledges to bind him may decide it is more profitable to give way to the pressure than to resist it. An unlabeled garment is an evasion of responsibility. In affixing their label to a garment, on the other hand, the Kirschbaum clothesmakers say,"For this garment and for every process in its making, we assume full responsibility. Upon its ability to satisfy the wearer we stand or fall." No eye—not even the eye of the expert-can detect a slight mixture of cotton in an unworn fabric. Nor can it tell from the surface of the suit whether the inner and unseen details have been well or badly done. Your certain protection, and ours, is a label which identifies the garment as coming from a maker whose name is a guarantee of all-wool, and the excellence of workmanship that belongs with all-wool—the Kirschbaum label.

Hazel Cook Now Leads In "Our Kansas Girl" Contest by 100 Votes NUMBER 104 Many Students Buying Books As They Realize it is War Annual Contest to Close March 16 Rules Were Given Out by "Jay hawker" Editors to Remove Misunderstanding Hazel Cook nosed out Earline Alen by a scant 100 votes in the second lap of the "Our Kansas Girls" contest Wednesday. Third is Hester Jackson who passed both Jessie Wyatt and Eliseen Van Zandt. The remaining candidates, in the order of their standing, are: Myrtle Steen, Louise Logan, Laurine Lynn, Rhea Dively, Genevieve West, Marie Buchanan, Doris Patterson, Dorothy Wiggins, Frances Adams, Ilia Clark, Josephine Huoni, Jessie Buck, and Fink Skaer. "One thing about the contest should be emphasized," said Harry Morgan this morning, "and that is that prospective purchasers will have no opportunity to buy an annual after the contest is over. When the contest closes a week from Saturday, we shall know just how many books are wanted by the student body; the exact number that have been ordered will be printed. There will be no extra copies. It is essential that everyone who wants a book should buy it before this contest closes. REALIZE IT IS WAR ANNUAL "The fact that it is a war annual, unique and different from anything ever published at K. U., and that it is probably the last elaborate annual that will be published here for many years, is leading many people to buy who would not ordinarily do so. Sophomores, and even freshmen, as well as juniors and seniors, seem to realize that this is their last chance to get a really keen K. U. annual." To remove any misunderstanding regarding the rules governing the contest, which had existed only in traditional form, the following set of rules was announced this morning by the management of the contest and the judges. One feature is different from past contests: money paid for advertising will not be counted for votes. Advertisers objected to being solicited by numerous contestants for their votes and it was found necessary that the officials offered the votes that have been cast thus far are for subscriptions and for organization senior, junior, or sophomore space. GIVES RULES OF CONTEST THE QUEEN STATES OF TOWN THE MAYORS governing the contest follow: 1. Contest closes at 6 p. m., Saturday, March 16. 2. One vote will be given for each cent paid for a subscription to the "Jayhawk." 4. Cash paid for advertising will not be considered in giving votes. 3. One vote will be given for each cent paid for organization, senior, junior, and sophomore dues, paid in cash for spacn in the book. 5. Any woman in the University may be entered in the contest, by the casting of a ballot bearing her name, prior to 6 p. m. Wednesday, March 6. Keys to the ballot box are kept by one of the ten judges and the judges make the daily and the final counts. 7. Announcement of the standing of the contestants will be made every morning during the contest. 8. Ballot boxes are placed near the Jayhawker bulletin board, at the east entrance to the campus. Jayhawker office in the Daily Kansan news room. Professor Patterson To Talk Professor Patterson To Talk The American Army in France", will be the subject of a lecture to be given Friday night before the University Club, by Prof. D. L. Patterson. He will illustrate his lecture with lantern slides which he brought back with him and which were the first to be brought to this country. This is the second of four lectures given at the University Club. Senior Molina gave the first two weeks ago. Teams in the intra-mural basketball tournament should practice Friday afternoon if they have not done any work for the coming games next week. Send the Daily Kansan Home. Faculty Men Approve Opening of Workroom The workroom the Woman Student's Welfare League has installed at Westminster Hall for sewing and pressing will be open to women of the University on Saturday's from nine o'clock on. If any one has a sewing machine not in use it will be gladly received as a loan by the organization according to the statement of Edna Burch, director of the movement. She may be cotified by phoning 240. "That certainly appeals to me," said one of the University faculty yesterday, when he learned of the room for pressing and mending. "I wish the men would start something of the kind and save seventy-five cents per. That is my idea of honest-to-goodness war conservation." --- The War Here and Over There UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 7, 1918. WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY It is said they tried to form a chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution in Russia the other day, but couldn't decide which revolution—Topeka State Journal. American troops in France are now holding eight miles of trenches. Secretary Daniels has ordered a five-mile "dry" zone around all naval camps. The disorder in Ireland continues, Sinn Feiners having seized the town of Kiltimagh. A dollar will buy just half as much food now in Washington as it would ten years ago. The government has placed restrictions on the manufacture of "near" and temperance beer. Up to the end of last week, $2,798, 409.50 worth of Thrift and War Savings stamps had been sold in Kansas The War Department announces that about 800,000 men will be called in the second draft, in 1918, but that no new divisions will be formed. Victor L. Berger, Socialist candidate for United States senator from Wisconsin, has announced his platform, which is intensely pro-German. After an all-night session, the state assembly of Wisconsin adopted a resolution yesterday condemning the course of Senator R. M. LaFollette. The House of Representatives has passed a resolution asking Postmaster Burleson to explain the poor mail service given the troops in France. Nikolai Lenine, the Bolshevik prime minister, is working for Germany in her efforts to subjugate Russia, according to authoritative information received at Washington. The Bolsheviki are beginning to move the government offices from Petrograd to Moscow. The British Admiralty announces the torpedoing of the armed liner Calgarian off the Irish coast. Forty-eight men out of a passenger list of 610 persons were lost. John E. Redmond, Irish Nationalist leader in Parliament, died yesterday morning in London. He had been in Parliament for thirty-seven years, and led the fight for home rule in Ireland. Illustrated Lecture In Fraser Tomorrow A former private in the French army has been arrested in Washington on the charge of having defrauded the French government of several million dollars through war contracts. "America First and First Americans," is the subject of an illustrated lecture to be given by Dr. C. D. Williamson in Fraser Chapel at 4 o'clock, Friday afternoon. Doctor Williamson has an extraordinary collection of stereoptic slides of scenes among the primitive Hopi and Navajo dwellers, and of the old city of Santa Fe. He has lectured at K. U. several times and has always shown excellent pictures. Rumania has signed a treaty of peace with the Central Powers, agreeing to give up the province of Dobrudja and to help transport Teutonic troops to Odessa. Professor Kendrie Will Lead Orchestra In Concert Friday Conductor a Former Member of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra The annual concert of the University Orchestra which is to be given Friday night in Fraser Hall, will be under the direction of Prof. Frank E Kendrie of the School of Fine Arts. Professor Kendrie came to K. U. last fall and has instructed in violin during the year. He taught in Valpari- PROF. FRANK E. KENDRIE aiso University, Valparaiso, Ind. four years before coming to Law rence. 100 Professor Kendrie was formerly a violinist with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. He received his A. B. degree at Bowdoin University and his bachelor's degree was a pupil of Martin Loehler, well-known teacher and composer. The orchestra this year includes twenty-eight players. Mrs. Evelyn Olcott, mezzo-soprano; W. B. Dalton, cellist; and Ednah Hopkins, violinist, will attend the concert on Saturday tickets or 35 tickets will be accepted for admission. Kansas-Colorado Debate Comes Off in Green Hall Negative Team Leaves Tonight to Speak at University of Oklahoma The negative team composed of Herman Hangen, E. G. Smith and William Wilson, leaves for Norman, Okla., tonight. This team will debate with Oklahoma at the time the debate is being held here. The debate between Kansas and Colorado, which was announced to be held in Fraser Hall, will be in the Little Theater, Green Hall, Friday night at 8 o'clock. This change was made necessary because of a conflict of dates with the University Orchestra. More chairs will be moved into the theater to make room for 225 persons. "We expect to have the room in Green Hall filled to its capacity Friday night," said Coach H. T. Hill, this morning. "The question is interesting and the debate will be live from start to finish. Student tickets or twenty-five cents will admit to the contest." This rule is effective for work done after September, 1918 in the School of Medicine. At a meeting of the faculty of the School of Medicine Tuesday, the following resolutions regarding grades and eligibility for degrees were passed: First: A student in order to be accepted for the degree of Bachelor of Science or Law, B. in medicine must complete a two year course at A. B, or C in at least ninety hours. Second: A student in order to be accepted for the degree of Doctor of Medicine must have received the grade of A, B, or C in at least three-fourths of the hours required for graduation.

Awful Wild Circus Scored Hit Last Night With Large Audience Rhea Dively, Hula Dancer, Sec and Only to Snake Charmer, Irene Tichen The Wild and Awful Circus given by the A's last night in Robinson Gymnasium came up to its advertising and, in some respects, it even passed the expectations of the ringmaster himself, especially when the mysterious, blond-haired snake a charmer, Irene Tiepen, appeared with a live, four-fect long snake. It came from the Museum. The snake seemed to be charmed too, by screams of the crowd and by its would-be mistress herself. Hazel Pratt and Miriam Jones dressed in clown costumes put on a dance. Rhea Dively, the Hula舞师, almost surprised some of the artists who have been trained in the accomplishment in the "Old Country." The talented band intercepted all the popular selections as well as the Crimson and the Blue. Bertha Mika performed so admirably on the parallel bars and trappe that no one of the spectators could have guessed that she was suffering at the time of her performance. Seph and Lucene Spencer dressed as Japanese maidens gave a charming exposition of tight-rope walking: Every interesting feature followed me another in a close succession. All the performers were on hand and did excellent work. The managers as well as their assistants deserve a great deal of credit for their work in putting on the clever and entertaining performance. Former K. U. Star Wins Events in Army Camp Ernest Stateler Now at Camp Green, N. C., With Ordnance Division nance Division E. S. Stateler, c'17, First Provisional Co., American Ordinance, Base Division, and former K. U. two-miler writes from Camp Green, N. C.: "We had a holiday today in commemoration of Washington's Birthday. The morning was spent in baseball games and the afternoon in the first raising of our Regimental flag with informal ceremonies and in a regimental trackmeet. Of course I could not stay out of it, although the longest race was a 220 yard dash, which I won in 25 seconds. "All racing and other competing was done in service uniform on the uneven drill grounds. Our company won its ball game this morning by 2 and the track meet by a score of 32 to the 11 of our nearest rivals. Christian Endeavor Union Will Give Mixer Friday "The squad of which I am the acting corporal was the prize winning squad of the regiment, being responsible for ten of our total thirty-two. Our platoon is thinking of challenging another platoon in the regiment to a track meet. In our platoon is the captain of the M. U. track team for the national championship; friends in an athletic sens when we landed here; but now we have never let an opportunity pass by to show the men around what M. U. and K. U. can do for men in an athletic manner as well as otherwise. This fellow is an acting corporal, also, and is enlisted as a storekeeper." "Opportunity will be had to meet other young people of the University and of Lawrence, and many special features are planned. This mixer is one of several meetings that the Christian Endeavor Union is holding this week, in a special celebration. In days with no union service but with meetings among the individual societies." "All University students and faculty members interested in young people's work are invited to the union mixer the Lawrence Christian Endeaver Union is holding Friday night at 8 o'clock at the Baptist Church," said Alfred Graves, c21, president of the union, this morning. "Good entertainment will provide a royal time for everyone." Have you ENLISTED in the Army of Savers. Buy War-Savings Stamps! W. C. Stevens Returns But Continues Research Prof. W. C. Stevens has returned from New York where he has been doing research work for the Raw Products Committee of the National Research Council. This committee has been making a survey of resources that may be available for food, textile and drug purposes. It is the general opinion of the committee that the war lasts much longer substitutes for the materials now commonly used will have to be provided. Plain Tales From The Hill They were discussing Phi Beta Kappa. He: 'I don't think it's much to be a Phi Beta Kappa. A lot of the students wearing those door keys are many more brains than the rest of us." She: "Oh, why those are Kappa Kappa Gammas." "SIMPLY WILD. OVER ME." It is not true that the venerable and beloved dean of the School of Law is to be Queen of the May this year. Likewise it is a canard that the dignified and respected chancellor will lead the chorus of the 1918 K. U. Follies. But anything like this may be expected to happen henceforth. Seated in the owner's and driver's seat of the flossiest, the latest, the nifftest, the most freshlymanned designed chummy roadster with sophomoric trimming, there was the other day none other than Dr. R. A. Schwegler. Of course, there is no reason why the estimable doctor shouldn't drive a car, and a good one, but why in the name of all centrally and peripherally aroused sensations should it be a chummy roadster? A Sig Alph and his freshman date were strolling on the campus. "Oh," sympathized the freshman maid. "And do you get gym credit for it?" "Don't you know," said the Sig Alph, "I've got to do guard duty every night. March around our house for an hour at a time." Green Hall Theater would not hold all of the French-speaking students who came to hear Dr. Charles Cestre Wednesday afternoon. The crowd and speaker moved on masse to Fraser Hall. When they got there, they found that the water for the speaker's refreshment had been left behind. Two students were sent back to Green Hall to get it. They returned in a few minutes, weighted with the burden of one glass of water. A member of the public speaking department faculty caused quite a bit of excitement among certain of the women at a boarding club at noon one day this week. He called to see one of the women to arrange an hour for the rehearsal of a play. A man member of the club answered the bell and called the young lady. Another woman in the club, however, was at the head of the stairs and saw the young man but not the faculty member. The wanted woman responded to the call, laughing. The faculty member? Yes, it was Professor MacMurray. "Oh, girlie, your husband wants you," this woman called out. "Did you know Tilly and Cllen were married and have been since August 20?" "Now faint!—I Helen Forbes." This is a note Helen Forbes sent down the line in a class. A horrid man laid his hands on it; so here it is. Journalism Student Buys Home Town Paper Donald Joslin, e-cap, has recently purchased half interest in his hometown newspaper, the Hugoton Hermes. While remaining at the University, Joslin will send some articles across the state to his paper, Hugoton being in Stevens County, in the extreme southwest corner of Kansas. The Hermes is a weekly newspaper, the only one in the county. Joslin is taking special work this semester in the department of journalism in preparation to taking over active editorial control in the summer. This is his second year in the University. He does not expect to return to K. U. next year. No amount is Too small—THRIFT CARDS care for ALL! Buy War-Savings Stamps! Peace With Germany Of Today Impossible Declares Dr. Cestre German Greed for Wealth and Power Forced France Into War War Is German Industry Teutonic Patriotism is Only a Fanatic Desire for Supremacy Dr. Charles Certe, exchange professor at Harvard from the University of Paris, who spoke yesterday afternoon in Fraser Chapel, told from the French point of view, why we are in war. "To understand the war," he said, "we must understand our enemy, their instincts and their ideals, which are as different from French idols as possible. It is because the Germans have no conception of limit—for their own power and their own wealth—and because they have retained their early primitive instincts of ferocity, that we are obliged to fight this war. France did not want war, and even yielded a province in the Congo to Germany to keep peace, until that dark menace of German frightfulness became a reality and she was obliged to defend herself. For just as the barbarians destroyed the civilization of Rome, their descendants are threatening all of the forces of the civilized world today." PROSPEROUS BEFORE WAR Dr. Crestre called attention to the fact before the war that Germany enjoyed the prestige of being the most prosperous and the richest country in the world, both commercially and industrially, and had she been able to control her greedy desire for-more wealth and more territory, she might have retained that high importance. Whereas patriotism should embrace a love of country and a respect for others, Germany triumph is a sort of fantastic desire for the supremacy of Germany "uber alles." GERMANY TURNS ALL TO WAR GERMANY TURNS ALL TO WAR "War," Dr. Crest went on to explain, "is the industry of Germany. She has turned every quality which she possessed, artistic, scientific and practical into the business of making war, for which she has been preparing for the last forty-five years. It is her men of letters since the time of Fichte who have incited this ideal, and helped to bring about the present situation. "Since we, France, and now you, america, are fighting for the rights f small but glorious nations, for individualism and freedom. we can not peak of peace with Germany of today, in which the individual does exist, and freedom is unknown." Germans Have no Sense of Proportion—Cestre Americans Who Have Studied in Germany Should go to French Universities "I hope the stream of people here in the United States who have been going to German universities to study will swing around to its proper and right channel," said Prof. Charles Crestre in his talk in English on French universities given in Fraser Chapel, Wednesday afternoon. "German scholarship," he continued "is admirable so far as it falls under the category of scientific investigation. It is not admirable, however, in units. Mommsen, the German's greatest historian, is a hater of the French." "The Germans have lost their sense of proportion. They argue that they believe in self-determination. They believe in large determination for the large nations only." "Humanism has always been the goal of France. The spirit of French history is remarkable. Lavise gave all that was due to the rulers of Germany. He could not admire the taking of Silesta, the theft of Poland, and the breaking of treaties. There is a width in his writings." The mathematics club will meet Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, Room 103, Administration Building. Miss Frances Adams will speak on Zeno's paradoxes. Kappa Phi banquet tickets may be secured at Myra Hall Friday from 1 to 2 o'clock and Saturday from 1 to 3 o'clock. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 7,1918.

THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 1918. Have you a little SALVAGE BAS KET in your home? DEBATING DECLINES Nobody cares if the federal courts of the United States are deprived of robes, righteousness, and the right to declare acts of Congress unconstitutional. Nobody wants to know why they should have such a power or why it does not matter. Let orchestral strains from Fraser Hall draw in the crowd, ballyhoo the lads and lassies with enchanting mourn of oboe and wall of violin. Voices of the commonwealth can clash at will alone in the sound proof vault under Green Hall. Let them come from Colorado. Let them talk. Let Kansas answer. Who wants to listen now. Of course the question is serious. Of course a nation is asking it and eventually will reply with the mandate of a democracy's will. But university people are fiddling and fanning, building culture into their egotism. And the world goes by. The world does its thinking. The world speaks its opinion and acts upon it without contribution from insulated academicians. No, you must not think in terms of this century,—not until next century. Then it will have been proved in doctoral theses that right is right and wrong is wrong, that this ought to have been done thus, and thus ought not to have been done at all. Sweet and consoling after-thoughts—fruits of schorraly research—the most unproductive work that a moving world is cumbered with! Be like the typical collegian. Be as far from the Kansas soil and Kansas spirit that give you life and purpose—as far as things dead can keep you. Scorn the question of the day. Live on in yesterday. That much is safe—it was agreed on long ago. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT It was a large class and the instructor was in a hurry to finish the work on hand so they could go to a more important discussion. But the time killing student persisted in arguing over an unimportant point that had unfortunately come up and they lost half an hour; not much, but these little things count. COLDS FREE—APPLY IN CLASS Fifty persons in a hermetically sealed box—that's what it amounts to. The class was uncomfortable and a bit heady. Five or six persons had colds, audibly. Everyone was so ill at ease that the professor's discussion did not penetrate at all. It was not strange, either, considering that within that room, with it's closed doors and windows, the fifty had sat for nearly an hour, and that during the previous hour there had been another class there and before that another. But instructors still persist in wondering why they get their quizzes funked, and why measles, colds and mumps will go the rounds. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He was never absent from class but never arrived at any of them less than three minutes late. His professor in the preceding class did not keep him after the regular hour but he always was a few minutes late in arriving at class. A little less work between classes and less loafing would place him at class in time. It's a little thing but— JEST FILLER FISHIN' AGIN he brook is free of ice, Bill, the water's not too high; The fish are up in sight, Bill, swiftly swimin' by— My tackle ain't the best, Bill, but- my goin' mein to try!

WOMAN'S WAR WORK (From the announcements of the Committee, Public Information Section) Committee on Public Information) Radio inspectors of the Department of Commerce have been instructed to advise women who wish to become radio telegraphers to study Morse telegraphy instead. Because of the great shortage of competent telegraphers at the present time the Western Union Telegraph Company is undertaking the instruction of operators and offering to pay them while learning. There is, however, practically no demand for the services of women as radio operators, either in the Navy or in commercial life. Books and library service are to be provided for Army, Navy and Red Cross hospitals in America and France, according to the plan of the American Library Association; which will direct the work under the War Department Commission of Training Camp activities. Miss Caroline Webster will have general charge of this new branch of the service. The librarians will be accommodated as nurses and will have the same standing as the regular hospital staffs. The position will not be filled by trained librarians entirely but there will be place for women without technical training. The duties of the librarian will include reading to convalescent soldiers. The woman who has had training as a physical laboratorian is needed for war services under the Civil Service Commission, in such work as the testing and calibrating of apparatus at the radio laboratories. Applicants must have had at least three months of physical or electrical laboratory experience and the equivalent of high school training. "Freshman Time" is a creation of an upperclassman's imagination. No freshman at Indiana University has ever had the delightful sensation of possessing any minutes as his own. He goes to a series of lectures, conventions, hygiene, and gymnasium where he sees his fabulous time in the powers of many persons. He is told to take his time, conserve his time, and value his time, to which instructions he listens, then turns to search in fairyland for freshman time.—The Indiana Daily Student. The War Department Commission on Training Camp Activities now has fifty-five women deputy sheriffs doing scouting and patrol work. These are protective officers working in vicinities of camps in all parts of the country, co-operating with military police and local authorities. Their special office is the care of young girls in the vicinity of camps, the oversight of their conditions of living and forms of entertainment. By Margaret Lynn Violet Ray Displaces Currycomb and Brush Barber-in-chief in the Valley of the Kaw, he spoke with supreme authority. He had just collected $1.33 from a perfect man, had just proclaimed a stentorian "Next!" from the red plush throne. But there wasn't any next just then. Lawrence, Kansas, was about to sit down to the evening meal. And the torsorial emporian elected to help win the war by shutting off the current that was feeding his magic violet ray. "Yes, it's a wonderful machine," he said, "shakes your evil looks away. Just like an earthquake—there's beauty in every ear." THE ADVENT Then the old chap got reminiscent and told the philosophic tale of every great and successful man. Years and years and years ago when he was a little shaver he had come to town with all he had on earth wrapped up in a red kerkheid tie to the end of a crooked hickory stick. In that precious parcel were a silver of soap, the fringe of a shaving brush, a razor that would slay a pachyderm, shears that would shame the International Harvester Co., a pachyderm, a comb that squared seven teeth at odd intervals, and a family hair-brush that his mother had used for discipline on five brothers and five sisters." That "hat brush is the only existent monument to whatever virtue I possess," he said solemnly. He was the second barber the town had ever had. The first one was kidnapped by Quantrell as contraband of war, on ground of military necessity in Missouri. And yet no one welcomed him. In fact, no one saw any use for him at all. Women cut hair by clapping dishpans on the heads of husbands and sons and circumshearing to produce a resultant abbreviated thatched that looked like a flight of steps from neck up to crown, and down a slighter decline from crown to brow. UTILITY OF WHISKERS As for shaving—it never occurred to anyone. In winter whiskers were accessory clothing, and the law and the prophets had set the rule that summer was the time to raise crops in store for the season beyond the harvest. Conservation was the watchword. There was some beauty too. For when the breeze blew through there was whispering music as of an aeolian harp strung with a million strings. And all the men had a fondness for music. "I borrowed an empty keg—lots of 'em in those days—and set up business in a corner of the blacksmith shop," said the professional pioneer. "Lucky I did," he added. "I took the glorious opportunity to tell a dozen men at a time that they groomed their horses better than they did themselves. Then I repaired the beauty of that blacksmith so that he got the bell of the town away from the dancing master. That was the beginning. Now look at 'em all!" "Look at 'em—oh look at 'em!"—Elijah vindicated, Isaiah triumphant never had such satisfaction. "They sit down to my skill. They linger until my consumate art has made them whole." NEW ERA DAWNS Visits to the barber shop were cut from once a month to once a week in course of a quarter century. And when the Spanish war became history, men came once every twenty-four hours. "I put in five chairs. I kept open nights. I bought bay rum by the barrel. I founded a bank, I began to feel like Alexander after the world was all his own," sighed the barber. The barber was wistfully regarding the box that held the infernal powders subject to the hand of man. "Someday," he said very softly, very dreamy, "someday I shall shave you out your hair by pressing a button." "But that was before people thought water was meant to be drunk and electricity to do more than dispel the night," There was a gleam in the eye that follows the shears—"It had to come. I mean the violet ray,ray. Gave a tooth-ache? Cure it. Floating kidney? Anchor it. Homely mug? Enchant it. Nothing like the violet ray. Men spend an hour at a time under its spell. And you just saw how they emerge. He is good for several hours. Then he'll be back for several hours." Plymouth—a persistent influence. Adv.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN College Greek to Be In Eclipse for Time After End of Big War Struggle' for Existence Will be of Primary Importance, Says Professor Brandt Greek will come into its own after this war, according to Prof. J. G. Brandt of the department of ancient languages. "By Greek one should understand not only the language, but the many cultural elements which are a heritage to us from the Greeks alone," says Professor Brandt. "The word *aethiopoeia* itself will come popular, but 'things Greek' are universal in their appeal, and consequently will be everlastingly significant.. "Greek for a short time will be neglected even in the eastern colleges, but because Greek literature, art and teachings, after all the centuries that have passed since their presentation to the world, are still of universal interest, and of inestimable value in the culture and education of the people, even of those who do not know the Greek origin and derivation of the many things that will go to make up their lives—because of these facts 'things Greek' will occupy a great share of the attention of people as soon as they can cease to be interested in the struggle for bare existence. "After all is said, one can offer little explanation of the certainty that Greek will come into its own again is the fact that its human element is so great, that its appeal is universal, and for the people of all times and places and manner of living." "Iimmediately after the war, people, the great majority of them at least, will be primarily engaged in an actual struggle for existence, just as the people as a whole are during a reconstruction period; and the reconstruction period after this war will be perhaps a more serious and lengthy one than here-to-fore experienced by the modern world.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 7,1918 Tryouts Start Friday For Runners Entering Missouri-Kansas Meet Events Not Decided Then Will Be Run Off Tuesday Afternoon R. Rodkey Makes Fast Time Mile is Weakest Point—Dashes Appear to be Stronger Than Usual Try-outs for the Missouri-Kansas meet in Kansas City, March 15, will be held in Robinson Gymnasmium Friday and Tuesday afternoons. If the longer distance men are fit Friday the half-mile, and two-mile races are scheduled, which are not run off Friday will be decided Tuesday. Ralph Rodkey made unusually fast time in a three lap dash last night. The mile was slow and the quarter-cicle was not fast compared with that of last year. Murphy, Ralph Rodkey, Russell, Davidson, Lobaugh, and Shreve are the best men thus far in the 440-yard dash. Murphy is probably the fastest man and Rodkey seems to be a comer in the event, although an injury has kept him from practicing for several weeks. LOBAUGH SHIFTED TO DASHES Lobauch has been shifted to the dashes so as to strengthen the quarter mile. Coach Hamilton considers the relay team weak but indications are that the Missourians have not a much better team. Murphy and Coffey have been doing the strongest work in the half mile. The best time Murphy has made this season is 2:05. This is as good time as was made by Fred Rodkey in the K. C. A. C. meet. WEAK IN MILE The mile is probably the weakest event. Dewall, Buffington, and Brown are possibilities. These last three runners are better athletes in the two-mile. All of the distance runners are distance men except Murphy. The dashes are stronger this year than they have been at K. U. for several seasons and the Jayhawkers may give Missouri a close race in these events in spite of the fact that Scholtz the crack dash man of last season, is running in great form. Lobaugh and Haddock, new men this season, are evenly matched and have done excellent work. PROMISING MEN FOR HURDLES PROMISING MEN FOR HURDLES Welty, Hobart, and Simonds are the most promising candidates for the hurdles. It is a toss-up as to which is the best man, first one winning and then the other. The shot-put, supposedly a strong point this year, has turned out to be feeble. Haddock did the best work in the Kansas Aggie meet with a hurl of 35 feet 10 inches. Liggett is also out for this event. The high jump is a strong point for Kansas this year as it has been for the last three seasons. Rice, who is able to do six feet, is the strong athlete in this event, although Howell is second in Howard and Welty are . vaulting. Howard vaulted eleven feet in the K. C. A. C. meet. Uhrlaub Made Captain Of Valley Second Team Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, of Warrenburg Normal, who has officiated in many of the Missouri Valley basketball game this season, has chosen what he considers first and second selections of All-Missouri Valley teams. The University of Kansas, although it finished third in the Missouri Valley conference race, does not have a man on the first team and gets only one player on the second team. Selection Made by "Phog" Allen Who Based Choice on Games He Officiated Captain Uhlaub, who played both forward and guard on the K. u. Five this season, was selected for the position of forward on the second team. He was also made captain of this team. He probably scored more than any other player in the Missouri Vikings and Laslett out of the running because he played his man too closely. He said he based his selections on what he had seen of the playing of the teams in games in which he officiated. The teams selected are: SHOE REPAIRING Best materials used.

Innes, Bullene V Hackman UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XV. NUMBER 105 Reunions in Paris Are Common Events With Jayhawkers Overseas Former Director of Physical Education Writes in Letter of Experiences in France Naismith Meets K. U. Men He Tells of Shaking Hands with Former Students in Camps Abroad The number of K. U. men now in France is rapidly becoming so large that K. U. reunions in Paris are getting to be common occurrences, according to a letter received by Chancellor Frank Strong of the University from Dr. James A. Naismith, formerly head of the department of physical education at the University at New York. Doctor Naismith has met so many old K. U. men in France that he says many an occasion has seemed like old times. The first University of Kansas man that he met in France, according to the letter, was Roland Boynton who is secretary to the colonel commanding the troops—Colonel Travis of Iola. Boynton was on the same vessel with Creighton, the track man. Afterwards Doctor Naismith milt lieuten-R. E. Welsh and later, Tom Lee of the class of 1910 who has been doing Y.M.C.A. work among the French and who probably is now in an officers' training camp. At an aviation camp Doctor Naismith milt lieutenWhitehead and Lieutenant Miller, a graduate student who was an instructor in the University of Illinois. Lambert, a former K. U. student now a mechanician in the aero corps was also at the camp. The letter reads: "I was later standing near the doo waiting for someone, when I saw a familiar face coming toward me, smiling. I could not recall his name and as all the men are in uniform, you have only the face to judge by. He made me guess but I could not do it until I asked him to take off his hat and then I saw the extensive forehead of Lieutenant Francis Wilco, L.L.B. His hair is being flying and they cut all kinds of capers in the air. It will not be long before we hear of them bringing down their Boches." Later Doctor Naismith met captain O'Keefe, who was a member of a tumbling team at K. U. He took part in the raid described by Patullo for the Saturday Evening Post in the story "The First Raid." According to the letter he is still the same modest, kindly little scrapper that he was on Tennessee Street when he was laid out. "One Sunday morning," the letter says, "I turned around to the call, Oh Doc Naismith and saw six feet four of Kansas manhood in the person of Wint Smith. He is a lieutenant and an instructor in an artillery school. With him was Lieut. Roy Cress. "I have not met Lieutenant Kirk land nor Roy Stockwell of Lawrence, who has received the croix de guerre with special mention for his bravery in rescuing wounded while exposed to shell fire, rifle fire and gas. Neither have I seen Rick Randolph although he was near here. I see Professor and Mrs. Applebloom frequently. Applebloom is head of the purchasing department of the Y. M. C. A. and Mrs. Applebloom is looking after the movement orders." American experience with the French language is usually laughable, says Da. Nismith, but he has managed to survive between his French, some Latin words murdered, and a variety of signs. The work over there is made pleasant by the co-operation of all for the best welfare of the men and as the army stands for a new ideal of military life, he does not doubt but that the American army will be the best that can be put out. He tells of a professor of psychology from Morningside in a little but near candy and tobacco in conducting a boxing event, then leading the singing, then introducing a speaker, then keeping the fires going. A $5,000 a year preacher in a big church in America is doing menial work in a canteen, and many society women are doing similar work in France.

The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY We are told that no one in Germany but the Kaiser rides in an automobile supply truck, which shows that they are still keeping the auto in autocracy—St. Louis Post Dispatch. Berlin announces that a treaty of peace has been signed with Finland. Men in the next draft will be divided into four classes according to physical condition. A Spanish newspaper has un earcited a German plot to bring about a revolution in Spain and to assassinate King Alfonso. The savings of the people of the United States were increased from six billion dollars to fifteen billion dollars in 1917. In addition to constructing submarine chasers for the government, the Henry Ford plant in Detroit will soon commence building light "tanks." A plan to sell all property belonging to German interests in this country has been agreed upon by the Senate appropriations committee. A spirited debate took place in the Texas lower house yesterday on the question of barring the German language from all schools and colleges in the state. Germany has admitted that she demanded the forts of Toul and Verdun from France in July, 1914, as a pledge of France's neutrality in case of a Russo-German war. The ship-building labor adjustment board has authorized an eight-hour day for ship workers, as well as a minimum wage scale, free transportation, and on open shop. An American patrol of nine men which had been missing all night returned to their trenches at noon Wednesday by making a dash across No Man's Land, not a shot being fired at them. Two years imprisonment or $500 fine or both is the heavy sentence that will be instituted on all persons in Pennsylvania who are found guilty of storing more than 30 days' supply of foods. No more men of draft age will be allowed to enter the ordinance, quartermaster. signal, medical, or adjutant general's departments unless they are specially fitted for the positions. The War Department has approved a new plan of army organization which calls for six divisions in each army corps, three of which will compose afield army. This will require the appointment of seven lieutenant-generals and three more generals. The peace treaty signed by the Bolshhevki gave Germany 381,000 square miles of territory, inhabited by 50,000,000 Slavs. This does not include the Ukrainian Republic, which is virtually under Austria's control, nor the three small stateseded to Turkey. Forest J. Miller of the department of geology has been accepted in the aviation corps and left this afternoon for the aviation training school at Urban, Ill. Mr. Miller was graduated from K. U. in 1916 and has since held a fellowship in the department of geology, working on the subject of fuel resource analysis of Kansas Hework Southern Kansas, making various tests and investigating means of utilization.

Will Uphold Negative Side of Question at Issue in Little Rivals from Colorado Will Debate Tonight Against Affirmative Theatre Colorado's debaters arrived today to meet the University of Kansas team tonight in Green Hall Theater. The Kansas team spent the afternoon in studying the fine points of the subject before going to the platform to support the contention that the Federal Courts should be deprived of the power to declare acts of congress unconstitutional. Members of the Colorado team in the order of their speaking re Kenneth Grant, Carlton Hills and George Penny. Kansas' first speaker is Robert Albach, who will be followed by Marjorie Bean and Edward Mason. The debate tonight will be held in the Little Theater in Green Hall, instead of in Fraser as first planned. An error in the University marshal's office set the orchestra concert for the same time and place. The orchestra requires the pipe organ. Prof. B. F. Moore will preside at the debate, and the Judges will be H. R. Ennis, Charles H. Thompson of the Civil Service Commission, and L. C. Smith, of the Commercial National Bank, all of Kansas City. The Kansas negative team left Thursday night for Norman, Okla., to meet the University of Oklahoma trio tonight.

Professor Riggs is the son of Judge Riggs and was engaged in the engineering business in Lawrence for some time after he was graduated from the University. On several previous visits to Lawrence he obtained positions in the University of Michigan for several professors from the K. U. School of Engineering but according to engineering faculty members his visit this time was purely personal. Former Professor Visits Ray E.

Earline Allen Again LeadsiBeauty Contest; Hazel Cook Is Second Senior Electrical Engineers Base Award of Votes on Ingenuity of Women Earline Allen had again taken the lead in the "Our Kansas Girls" Contest when the votes were counted this noon by Prof. L, N. Flint, Hester Jackson had nosed out Hazel Cook for second place. Miss Cook is now third. The other contestants in the order of their standing, are: Louise Logan, Marie Buchanan, Ellen Van Zandt, Jessy Weywatt, Frances Adams, Jessie Bock, Myrtle Steen, Josephine Huoni, Genevieve West, Rhea Diveley, Laurine Lynn, Dorothy Wiggins, and Lila Clark. A rumor was current on the campus this morning that Hester Jackson had withdrawn from the contest. This is denied by Miss Jackson. "Additional payments on Jayhawk closes, made before the contest closes, will be counted as votes," was the order of Harry Morgan, editor of the book. "Every cent paid for subscriptions and for organization, senior, junior, and sophomore space is good for a vote—providing the money necessary to pay for events in March 16." Subscribers who have paid only a dollar or so down, but who pay more before the contest closes, will get additional votes." An unusual "stunt" was promulgated this morning when representatives of the senior electrical engineers announced they controlled approximately 15,000 which they offered as a prize to the ingenuity of K. U. womanhood. Charles L. Shugart, spokesman for the class, said members of the class would be ready to hear the causes of the different candidates set forth in person next Monday morning between the hours of 9 and 10 o'clock in the lecture room in Marvin Hall. "The end of the world has come!" A group of people rushed wildly up Tennessee Street last night about 9:45 o'clock. They were eagerly scanning the brilliant heavens to the north. As the red are grew brighter and brighter and approached the zenith, their terror increased. "We have all these votes over here," said Shugart, "and don't hardly know what to do with them. We don't get many chances to meet the women in the contest and so decided to give them all an equal chance at our votes. It's been many months since a woman was seen over here on our edge of the campus where none ever come voluntarily, and we want some to come. Members of our reception committee will be in the lecture room in the second floor throughout the hour Monday." Did Your Wicked Past Appall You? Ours Did "It is the end of the world!" All that red in the sky is the blood of all those killed in the European War. Many, if not all, die, deaths, too, within the last year." According to reports, the phenomena was observed last night from coast to coast. Astronomers are generally agreed that the strange effect is caused by electrical currents and atmospheric communication. Atmospheric communication was impaired during the period in which the aurora borealis was visible. The excitement was caused by the appearance of the aurora borealis, which was the most brilliant last night that it has been in this latitude for a quarter of a century. Areas and valleys have been cleared and apparently moved from east to west in the northern sky. The patches of light were constantly changing. And the group hurried down the street, apparently not knowing where they were. Present One-Act Plays "Roseberry Shrub Sec," and "The Conspirator" will be put on by the Dramatic Art Class in Green Hall Little Theater Monday afternoon at three o'clock. These Monday afternoon plays are always open to visitors. Three weeks rehearsing is put on each play and each member of the class is always at work on a part. Miss Mary Anderson of DeSoto, who attended K. U. last year, is visiting friends at 1321 Yearne street. Davis Tells Forum of Diplomacy and the War Prof. W. W. Davis spoke to the Woman's Forum Thursday on "Diplomacy and the War." He said in part the diplomacy of the war had grown out of a group or set of problems which had confronted diplomats before the outbreak of the war. He discussed several of these; the Balkan question, troubles in Asia Minor, and the Alsace-Lorraine question. "Since the beginning of the war," he said, he explained, "we have been abandoned or had changed into leaders and now diplomats are facing new problems among which are Germany's invasion of Belgium and the entrance of the United States into the war." Plain Tales From The Hill The brothers of a certain fraternity were discussed "Our Kansas Girls' contest. They referred to one of the beauties leading in votes. "Say," drawled one of the brothers, "is that the Alba Chiba Omeo Cook?" *** "The cook!" shot out another of 'em. "Whad-ju think this beauty contest is, anyway?" No Solomon, the man climbing over the peak of Blake Hall yesterday was not taking treatment for heart trouble, nor was he up there just for the view, nor was he practicing tight-rope walking, and decidedly he was not winding the clock. Just a bum place in the roof, and he was fixing it. 'E'S A SUFFRAGETTE After all there's some consolation in being a man sassiety editor, as Lawson May will testify. Especially if the job will save a feller from getting all mussed up by a pugnacious prof. Yesterday Miss-bag pardon, Mister Lawson—was sitting at his faithful typewriter pounding out assissery notes when Prof. Sam Rice approached. "Well, guess I'll go over and get that story," quoth the pref. "Yes, yes, cubed," answered Lawson. "Yes, yes, back." He got it bumpy, right back. Professor Rice gasped and looked and started to take his off coat. Then a look of sadness came over his face. "No, no." he murmured, "I can't do it. I never beat a woman up and I can't start now." There is really such a thing as the irony of fate. Eileen Van Zandt, a candidate in "Our Kansas Girls" contest has the measles! The sisters who are soliciting votes for her assure every one that her beauty will not be ruined by the horrid, ridiculous fact remains—she has the MEASLES! An unstudious stude went down town several nights ago to devote several fleeting hours at a "keen movie." He took the exact change for admission, and only that much. Witness the spectacle of our hero as he strides along. Enter the villain, in the shape of a grating on the sidewalk at the front of one of the stores. Said hero, clutching his money in his hand to keep from losing it, encounters the villain. A nickel falls from his flat desk and lands on its visions of no keen show or else a long walk home to get more money. Hero looks around, appalled by the thought that some one might see him as he plays the climax. Then he stoops, lifts the grating, descends into the hole, grubs in the bottom of it, and emerges jubilant. Anticlimax: Hero, returning from the theater at a late hour, takes the opposite side of the street. Physics Student, watching the aurora borrealis phenomena last night, "Never before did I see nature so ashamed of herself." The joke that got the biggest laugh at "Mary's Ankle" last night wasn't really supposed to be in the show at all. It was inserted by the leading man, an individual who realized the value of "local color." He was sitting, with "Mary," on the deck of the steamer. And the object of his attention was that Mary had not been poorly turned, silken clad ankle that had brought them together when Mary got hurt in an automobile accident and came to him for help. Dr. F. H. Geselebracht will speak Sunday at 4:30 o'clock before the K. U. Methodist League in Myers Hall. "Gee!" he said, "if any K. U. girl has an ankle like that she'll win the Beauty Contest sure!" Every K.U. Woman An Hour a Week in Red Cross Work Is Plan Class Committees Will Begin Big Drive for Workers Monday Need for Dressings Urgent France No Reserve Supply Ready for American Army in *Every K. U. Woman One Hour a Wear* In Surgical Dressings Work for the U.S. Army. The foregoing is the slogan the Surgical Dressings Committee of the University has adopted to start its campaign to bring every one of the nine hundred University women into perhaps the most currently needed form of Red Cross work now open to the women in universities and colleges. Class committees have been organized and a campaign was mapped out at a meeting called by Miss Margaret Lynn, director of woman's war work, Wednesday afternoon. CLASS COMMITTEES AT WORK Members of the class committees will see every woman in the University to urge the absolute need of every University student joining this Red Cross work as a volunteer of the work of doing their bit for the cause of America and world democracy and that no American boys will die in France for want of surgical dressings and hospital equipment. It costs nothing to join the classes. The big drive for surgical dressings will start Monday. A bulletin board on the campus will announce the results of the canvass by the class leaders. Every woman who enrols for one hour a week will count one point for her class. MRS. MARVIN SPEAKS The need for surgical dressings was presented to the forty women at the committee meeting by Mrs. Geo, Marvin last night. "Hospitals on the front in France are absolutely without supplies in many cases," she said. "Old newspapers are being used to dress wounds which means infection and suffering and often death. Every compress made by an American woman means the life of a soldier in Europe. RED CROSS WORK A DUTY "The work in our surgical dressings should not be considered as something to be done in spare time only. It is a duty which must be performed for the government. Sacrifice of other interests and activities should be made if no extra hours in the week can be found." Miss Margaret Lynn told of the lack of reserve supply of Red Cross dressings. "The American Red Cross had hoped to have a large reserve ready when our men went over to France. At present they are just keeping even with the demand. A reserve must be accumulated in America before the promised German drive in the spring or untold suffering and death will be the result of the negligence of American women." MUST REALIZE NEED Marion Joseph presided at the meeting and made an appeal for greater support of war work on the campus. "Only a small per cent of university women are spending even an hour a week making compresses," she said. "If every woman would spend at least an hour the supply of dressings sent would set a record for western schools. The surgical dressings committee is willing to open the room every hour of the week if the demand is great enough. The demand for work must be greater when college women realize their responsibility." The class committees are: senior, Arlene Griffiths, chairman, Grace Windsor, Susan P. McDonald, Jane Waters, Niln Blurton, Gertrude Lea Coss, Minnie Moody, Mignon Schel, Ruth Thomas, and Marie Buchan; junior, Louise Nixon, chairman, Mary Burnett, Jessie Rankin, Nindia Clain, Helen Wagstaff, Anne Benson, Florence Ingham, Margaret Young, and Ruth Rouse; sophomore, Edna Burkholder, Jennifer Gibson, Nindia Clain, Trant, Helen Jackson, Jean Coeff, Lillian Cottrell, Helen Bender, Helen Carlin, Margaret Lodge, Mary Anderson; freshman, Virginia Quinn, chairman, Helen Thurston, Helen Olson, Edna Eberly, Clara Nigre, Dorothea Engle, Lecra Varig, Hazel Rae, Katherine Glendenning, Ruth Russell, and Eloise MNutt.

Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, Bell K. U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan aims to picture the campus of the University of Kansas, to go further than merely printing the news and sharing it; to more seriously hold it; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be smart; to leave more serious problems to wiser heds; in all, to serve to help the students of the University. FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1918 Have you a little SALVAGE BASK KET in your home? HOLY SMOKE A wild-eyed debater stood in the door of the sanctum. He wanted to know if the Kansan really believed all it said about debating yesterday. He demanded hearing, he appealed to reason, justice, and fear of consequences. And then he was asked a question. Did he ever hear of satire? Did he really read the editorial which ironically surveyed the attitude of those who can afford to ignore the thorough discussion of a question of the day? Would he读 it once more? Or should some kind-hearted person explain to him in words of one sylable precisely the significance of each thrust? He looked ill. He wanted a drink of water. He said that he was not the only one,—that others had been deceived because they had not half read. The answer was grim—that if a Kansan editor could only get some people mad enough to give a second reading, an intelligent reading, there might be some hope for the column's survival. What is so rare as an original and new witticism from a University Professor. IMPOUND YOUR MULE A little kicking now and then is done by the best of men. If nobody ever kicked, nothing would be kicked, and a great many things need kicking. Kick if things don't suit you in K. U. Kick and kick hard, but kick effectively and don't wear out your hind heels on the vacant air. Don't silver your roommate's sensitivity with your ideas of what is outrageous and unjust and everlastingly wrong. Don't drag what few friends you have into a caucus expressly convoked to hear your troubles in University courses, social activities, athletics, or just plain physical exercise. If you have a kick that has virtually enough to survive cold print, write it down. Then if it is so concerned with people who read the Kansan's iiced type, send it in. There is a special column provided in the Kansan for just such communications. If you are in the University of Kansas, the Kansan is your paper. Use it. The absolute lack of student opinion in the paper gives one the idea that there is an overabundant emulation of friend "rabbit" on the Hill. Bring Jack or Jinny right up to the rail. Let 'em kick, let 'em bat. Perhaps they will knock down something that has stood too long. YOUR YEAR'S WASTEBASKET How many month's are you planning to put in the wastebasket this year? About two-thirds of our students are expecting to spend a 3-months vacation at home. They won't do anything particularly, except to "horse around" in father's automobile. A few perhaps, will want to earn a little money to apply on next year's expenses. Sons of the agricultural population will not be burdened with leisure, but the percentage of these is comparatively small. The majority of the students who spend the summer vacation at home will simply cast three months of the year into the waste basket. In the days of the horse and buggy and the coal oil lamp, and education as a by-product of leisure time, we could perhaps, afford to waste a quarter of a year for an expensive university plant, and for ourselves, individually. Summer used to be the proper time for the accumulation of mental rust. The present necessity for full efficiency in all matters, both public and private, cannot admit of this expensive and needless waste of a quarter of each year in the university world. The 1918 crop of high school students can be graduated in three years, and the present generation of university students may still effect a substantial saving of time by remaining for summer school from now on. The nation needs college men and women engaged in productive work. The year's wastebasket and the garbage can must travel the same route. Talk it over when you are home Easter, and decide to attend the Summer Session. "Every student should have a room, alone, and a fireplace." -Emerson. (Professor's note: "Also possibly an agreeable companion.) S. O.S. FOR SURGICAL DRESSINGS "The emergency of the moment in France is hospital supplies. Unless they are rushed immediately in great quantities the consequences will be so grave that we dare not contemplate the result." This message of Mrs. George Lathrop, president of the American Fund for French Wounded has vital significance for every K. U. woman. Every afternoon classes in surgical dressing are held from the hours of three to six o'clock. Is that news to anyone? If you read it the first time, the reading failed to move you to action unless you happen to be one of the few who are at work. So read it again, and again, and again. Do you agree that western women are not patriotic? You give color to that sentiment every time you fail to "do your bit." The time to help with the surgical-dressing supplies is, not after awhile when you are not so busy, but NOW. As American women let us show our true colors here in Kansas. Jinx No. 13 was stalking from the Journalism "quarters" in great indignation yesterday afternoon having learned that the journalism faculty had just shaken off his saprophytic hold. (The recent arrival of little Miss Clayton having raised the quota of sons and daughters of said faculty from thirteen to fourteen in number, and the "whodo" spirit of thirteen could no longer stick around). The Jayhawker desk attracted the evil eye of Jinx N. 13 who had set forth in search of future victims. Ah! The Kansas Beauties! In Jinx-ishge he smacked his figurative lips at the thought of dwelling among THEM. Incarnating himself into the likeness of a measle he crept insidiously down upon the typewritten list of beauties over which he hovers maliciously. Of course it was just a minute but in that time fifty persons were forced to walk in the mud in order to get around. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT. Two persons met two acquaintances on the walk thronged with class-going students and they stopped in the middle of the walk to talk. It's the little things that count. ON OTHER "HILLS" Women of Virginia are now demanding entrance in the state University. The state legislature is going to have to decide right away whether the women will be granted co-education or whether the state will build a co-ordinate college. At Ohio State University, final examinations have been abolished and the manner of determining the students' grades is left entirely to the professors of the different departments. The Girls' Glee Club of Oklahoma University is making a tour of the eastern and northeastern parts of Oklahoma which will last a week. This is the first time in the history of the school that a glee club composed of girls has gone into the state to represent the school. Woman Yell Leader The Junior class at the University of California has shattered all precedent by electing a girl as yell leader. She is Miss Marion Sutton, and she received more than twice as many votes in 2016 as White, who declares that many of the men of the class threw him down at the polls. Crusty was late to breakfast at the University Club this morning. The Prophet didn't get there at all, but starved through an eight o'clock hour of agony. Crusty and he went Mary's Anne last night. They saw it. Crusty and the Crab They Love Each Other But the crab, despite the fact that he had occupied his permanent seat in the Bowersock's very front row as usual, was at the table when crusty rumbled in. In fact, the Crab was just finishing the last sweet drops of boiled Kawfee, and obliquely used his free left hand to shove a plate of one-pounders—latest mold of warbread—into Crusty's range. "I don't want to die, thank you, growled Crusty in his deepest regi- ter. "But nobody wants you to, dean fellow," renilled the Crab. "I know better; everyone of you has it in for me." Crusty's quart of milk was set before him and he took from his vest pocket his bug-and-germ tester. "Do you suppose I would spend this extra fifteen seconds examining the honest gift of a faithful dog if I can't suspect man that I'm not dead." Nor does I don't want typhoid fever. And as for those bullets,—do you think my stomach is lined with corrugated iron?" "No, no, nothing of the kind, Crusty old chap," the Crab felt really hurt, "we all know just what it's made of, and we pity you." "That's it," fury frotted at the edge of the milk bottle—there was no time for a glass "that's it—it rub it in, rub it in! Pity me do you? I don't want your doggwain pity. I want to be left alone." "Is there anything else you want, sir?" the waiter was bending over the edge of the crater. And then he wasn't. The tonble off the volcano. "Well I'll be — — on the Hill in just three minutes!" that's all Crusty said, but his eyes burned holes through his glasses. Can you imagine yourself holding a deep affection for a remorseless cold-hearted machine? This is exactly the way one K. U. freshman feels towards the cold steel liquid-air machine in the basement of the chemistry building. Liquid-Air Machine Has Life-Long Friend When seven years old this man was seriously ill with pneumonia in a hospital in Kansas City. Because of a scarcity of oxygen, upon which his life depended, it was procured from liquid air sent from the University plant. Now he considers the iron machine as his savior and friend.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Faculty Members and Women Students Lead In Collection of Salvage Lots of Rubber and Few Meta Articles Have Been Contributed Rubber hose, rubber tubing, worn over overshear, rubber of all kinds, aizes, and descriptions is the principal article of salvage in the boxes that have been placed in Fraser Hall, Snow Hall, and the Chemistry Building, according to Lucene Spencer, who has charge of the collection for Rubber Hoses. Bubs and tinfoil are next in importance after rubber, but very few cold cream jars or empty tooth paste tubes have been contributed. Faculty members and employees of the University are far ahead of students in contributing salvage. Women are ahead of the men in this respect. Every student is asked to bring anything in the way of salvage that is saleable and all fraternity and rooming houses are also asked to do this. All money from the sale of the salvage will go to the surgical dressings fund of the Red Cross. Collections are made whenever there is a considerable amount of salvage in the boxes. Part of the material is sold to junk dealers in Lawrence, while the remainder is sent to Kansas City. Transportation is quite a large item and students going to Kansas City are asked to take small packages of salvage with them. The new box placed in the Chemistry Building is expected to receive a large amount of salvage as so much rubber and glass articles are used in this building. All the boxes for the collection of salvage were given by M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and woods. By the Way House Mothers Entertained. Mr. Janius Dyche, graduate last year, of Coffeyville is visiting at the Phi Delta Theta house. He will attend the Mess tonight.

The Christian Endeavor Union of the Congregational church had a banquet last night at the church with more than two hundred University students present. Plans were made for the 1919 state convention. K. U. Debaters to Meet Star 'O Stellar Fame Precocious Sooner Debater Be gan Collecting Laurels at Early Age The following, relative to the Oklahoma-Kansas debate at Norman Okla., Friday night, is taken from the Daily Oklahoma man: "On the Varsity debate team which meets the Jayhawkers, Friday evening, March 8, there will be a man whose past experience and training has eminently fitted him to represent the university in platform circles. Van Winter Stewart is his name and his dutch appellation characterizes him in the forensic lists—a doggedness, tenacity and determination that practical facts, which must be depended on in the discomfort of the opposition. Sooner literary supporters may well rest assured that no fact or argument of importance will be overlooked when the Oklahoma City youth takes his place on the platform. "His position on the debating team comes as a climax to his activities, both while in high school and since entering the university. When in the IRELAND YOU BET I AM! prep school he represented it in argumentative circles as a colleague of Joe Koch, John McCoy Campbell, and Clarence Westcott, all of whom have laurels here. Upon entering the university he became a member of the Athenian literary society and has served that organization as president. He also represents him in the contest last year. Stewart is a junior law lawyer, having entered the law school directly. "As to his ability as a student, it may well be judged from the fact that he was pledged and initiated into Phi Delta Phi, the honorary legal fraternity, while a freshman. He is a member of Phi Gamma Delta, also." I'm going to buy a "Jayhawker" because it's such a fine picture book. It'll have pictures of everything and everybody at K. U.—and even the soldiers who've gone to war! You'll Be Sorry If You Don't Buy A JAYHAWKER Dr. Strong Spoke to High School. Chancellor Frank Strong stopped at Herington Wednesday on his way to give a patriotic address at Clay Center and spoke to the students of the high school. While he was in Herington a troop train stopped there and the several hundred soldiers left the train and marched up town where they drilled an hour. Chancellor Strong said he recognized several K: U. men in the company and he understood they were on their .way to active service.

Third Place in Valley Basketball Race Goes To Kansas; M. U. First Captain Dutch Uhrlaub One of Three High-Scoring Men In League All-Valley Teams Selected Final Games Will Not Affect Standing of Leading Contestants Won Lost Pct. Missouri, 15 1 .938 Kansas Aggies, 10 4 .714 Kansas, 9 8 .529 Washington, 6 8 .429 Nebraska, 3 5 .378 Ames, 2 8 .200 Drake, 0 9 .000 With the final games for the Jayhawk quintet played with the Aggies Monday and Tuesday, Coach Hamilton's team is securely entrenched in the third place position in the Missouri Valley basketball race, with the Kansas Aggies one place ahead of the Crimson and Blue team and Coach W. E. Meanwell's Missouri Tigers leading the race with a record of fifteen wins and only one defeat. The final games in the Valley will be played next week between the Kansans and the Huskers, but the outcome will not materially affect the standing of the teams in the championship race, as Missouri has already cinched the title and the Aggies cannot be dislodged from second place. The Huskers, however, may step into fourth place by winning both games from the farmers. WHIRLWIND START FAILS WHIRLWIND START FAILS The Jayhawkers have finished a rather unsuccessful season after a whirlwind start and a record of four successive victories at the beginning of the race. The team includes some of the best players, but erratic playing and lack of teamwork at the proper times have been the chief causes of the failure of the Jayhawkers to place higher than third. The K. U. quintet has been a great scoring machine when things were working smoothly, as the 61 points piled up against Drake and the 92 points in the first series against Washington will testify. The Jayhawkers have also been the only team in the Valley to defeat both the Kansas Aggies and Missouri, and, with Missouri, have been the only team to score victories over every remaining quintet in the Conference. UHLRAUB MAKES MANY POINTS Besides these distinctions, Captain Dutch Uhrlaub, although playing guard most of the season, is among the three high score men in the Valley and his all-around work has stamped him as probably the best all-around player in the Conference. Captains VanTrine of the Aggies and Hawley of the lowly Drake outfit have also proved their all-around ability by piling up big total scores, and Marquard of Washington and Uhrlaub lead the Conference in free throws. Miller regular right forward, has been the most consistent scorer on the Jayhawker team during the latter part of the season, and Matthews has had an impressive goal shooting. It was his long time to play the only game taken from Missouri. Bunn has displayed good form on the floor and he and Miller should form a valuable pair of forwards next year, as both men are sophomores and will probably return to school next fall. Scrubby Lusatts have played his usual hard game at guard and is one of the best defensivemen in the valley. Fearing, Rice, Knowles and Cousins all attend at times and with the exception of Riese each man will be eligible for the 1919 Varsity. Captain Urblaub and Rice are the only members of the squad who will be graduated in June. ALL-VALLEY TEAMS SELECTED While officials and sport writers in the Valley have selected several All-Valley quintets, the Kansan, from the form displayed by the various teams, are here and the reports of content elaborate out the following All-Valley teams: First team: Forwards, VanTrine, Diamonds, Watches, Silverware, Cut Glass ED W.

The University of Oklahoma has finished a baseball schedule of fifteen games and the nine will play the Oklahoma Aggies, Phillips University, Chilopec Indians, Central Normal and Henry Kendall. SPORT BEAMS William Jewell finished the basketball season at Liberty, Mo., by defeating the Tarkio College five Wednesday by a score of 55-31. Newman, the Jewell center, shot eleven field goals. Forrest Harrison, dash man on the track team of the Kansas City Poly track team of the Kansas City Polytechnic Institute, has been selected to lead his team next year. Harrison won the relay for Poly in K. C. A. C. race against the Pittsburgh Normals by overcoming the Normal lead in the last lap of the race. Although Ottawa University basketeers lost their first game of the season to Baker Wednesday after winning twelve successive games, the Ottawans have cinched the State Conference championship because the Bethany Swedes also lost a conference game, their second defeat this year. Every member of the Ottawa five probably will be in school next year, which means that the Baptists will be in the thick of the fight again in 1919. Seventeen Missouri high school teams are competing in the annual high school elimination contest at Columbia for the Missouri state title. Central high of Kansas City is entered and is likely to carry away first prize. The Central team won the state championship at the tournament in Columbia last year. Lawrence high plays Atchison at Haskell tonight. Atchison has defeated the Lawrence team once, but since then Atchison has lost to Rosedale, which team in turn has lost by an overwhelming score to the Lawrence five. Atchison recently defeated Topeka high school on the Topeka court, but Lawrence supporters are expecting a victory for their favorites tonight. No amount is too small to LEND TO YOUR COUNTRY.

Time on the Various Events in Try-out Friday Was Show Turned Up a Dark Horse Ralph Rodkey and Lobaugh Make Best Time—New Men Out The time made by the University of Kansas track team continues to be slow and the prospects for a victory over Missouri in the annual Missouri-Kansas meet apparently are somewhat slim. In the tryouts Friday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium only the quarter mile was run in anything like the usual standard for this time of year. Cliff and Ralph Rodkey made the best time in this event in little more than five minutes while Lochhead was almost a second slower, Russell and Shreve made the distance in the same time Lobaugh did. Davidson was not in good shape and ran the quarter in 61 seconds. Probably the next best race of the try-outs was made by Hunt in a mile which he ran for time. He was the only real contestant in the race because Dewall was not out for the try-outs Friday afternoon. More en are needed in this event, according to the present outlook. In the '2-mile run, Oglewie, new man, surprised Buffington and beat him out for second place. Hanna placed first in the slow time of 11 minutes, but he had a big lead of more than a lap on the other two runners in the event. The relay, usually the deciding event in the Missouri-Kansas meet in Kansas City, is an uncertain event thus far. No team has been selected and no practice in running the relay has been had since the Kansas-Aggie meet. Lack of practice in touching off had much to do with the loss of one deciding relay in this meet so that it is certain that several practices will be held the latter part of this week in this necessary part of any relay. Clum to Show Slides of Wonders of Alasks UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 11, 1918. The final try-outs will be held Tuesday afternoon in the gymnasium and Coach W. O. Hamilton has issued a call for every track man to report for selective events. More men have been doing track work for the team in the last four days than at any other time this season. A large number of entries in the try-outs Tuesday will mean more competition for the regulars and mean better time in the events. Lecture Open to Public But Military Classes Will Not Be Dismissed "Alaska," is the subject of a lecture to be given in Fraser Chapel by John P. Clum at 4 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon.

Kansas Breaks Even In Debates,Winning Contest at Norman The Kansas negative team lost to the affirmative team of Colorado here Friday by, a unanimous decision of three judges. The Colorado team was successful largely because the batters for the Kansas negative team were: Robert Albach, Miss Marjorie Bean and Edward Mason. For the first time in the history of debating at the University of Kansas, the Jayhawker team defeated the Oklahoma team on the Oklahoma platform Friday night, when Kansas upheld a proposed plan to forbid Federal courts declaring unconstitutional any act of Congress. Only two judges presided at the debate, the third having missed his train. The second judge had disagreed between the two judges resulted in a decision for Kansas. Those on the Kansas team were Herman Hangen, E. G. Smith and William Wilson. The result of the Oklahoma-Colorado debate is not yet known here. Supply of Engineers Will Not Meet Demand "The Westinghouse shops are badly in need of electrical engineers," said a representative of the company who spent last week here. Not a single man in the School of Engineering was signed by the representative of the Westinghouse works. Practically every man who is a senior in the School of Engineering is enlisted in some branch of army service. Dean G. C. Shaad says that the supply of engineers will not any where near meet the demand. Plain Tales From The Hill The terrific wind that raged over Mount Oread Saturday shoed most persons off the hill, but attracted Chancellor Frank强 up it. He moved on to moon to see what the flapping and slamming on top of Fraser Hall meant. Sending Frank, Jr., home so that he would not get blower away, Doctor Strong approached Fraser and stood looking up at the bending tin that had been laid loose from the roof. A gust caught him and laid him flat on the ground. It happened to one of the faculty members of the department of English, and she tells it herself. She was in a party of three that was traveling with her husband and sentimental and the other one was not. All admired Wordsworth. They came to a romantic-looking old house, which, from their wide reading, they knew to be Wordsworth's. They rested on the steps of the house: two of them sentimentalized; one just sat. New significance and feeling were given Wordsworth's poems as they read them in the atmosphere of the famous author's home. Anon there drifted along a grocery's boy, modern and unromantic, with a box on his shoulder. He asked the whereofe of the reading circle. And then the literature students learned from the grocery's boy, who couldn't have discriminated. Wordsworth from an imperson J. Dafti that they were in deep pain, pew, the house they wanted was three doors down the street. Economics Prof.: On the whole, do you think the gold standard is a satisfactory one, Miss Rice? Miss Rice, after a moment of thoughtful mediation: Yes. I do. Economies Prof.: Well, you are very easily satisfied. Most women arpe- There are bets and bets, but the newest bet out is the one staged by William D. Clark, m'21, and Maximillian 9A. Miller, c'20. Both are in the draft. Clark has already left for the ground training school at Berkeley, Cal., and Miller is awaiting his call. The bet was made just before Clark's departure. The agreement is that the one who gets killed first wins five dollars from the other one. Clark was heard to have said that, in case Miller was killed first, he would make payment with a check in the hope that it would burn up before Miller could cash it. Which goes to show that Clark is not very optimistic about Miller's future. "Oh, I'm in such a pickle," said W. A. Dill of the department of journalism this morning. "My boy has just made paper wads out of my roll book and thrown them away." Explanation of the Big Noise on the Hill Today THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Folks Wanting Copies Of Annual Must Order Now Announces Editor No Extra Copies Will be Printed —Subscription List Closes Saturday Hester Jackson Takes Lead Engineers Had Reception for Candidates in Lecture Room Of Marvin Hall The School of Engineering had its day today. DELAY CASTING OF VOTES All morning the lecture room in Marvin Hall was the scene of an animated meeting—and the occasion was the reception held for the candidates "Our Kansas Girls" context. All but two of the candidates were there. "It was a highly successful affair," said Charles Shugart, president of the school, after the last fair candidate had left the building. "We are mighty glad that so many of them came over. Sometimes between now and Wednesday we'll decide whom we are going to vote for." Hester Jackson was in first place when the votes were counted by one of the judges this noon. Earline Allen was second, and Hazel Cook, third. The other candidates, in the order of their standing are: Marie Josephine Huoni, Jesse Logan, Eileen Van-Zandt, Jessie Wiley, Rhea Divey, Laurine Lynn, Frances Adams, Jesse Bard, and Dorothy Wirgins. NO EXTRAS TO BE PRINTED NO EXTRAS TO BE PRINTED Students who do not order copies of the "Jayhawker" this week will be unable to obtain an annual, according to an announcement made this morning by Don Davis, business manager of the book. "Unusual conditions prevailing in the paper and leather market, wartime prices, and all other uncertainties make it absolutely impossible for us to take any risks by printing more copies of the "Jayhawker" than have actually been ordered," said Davis. "Consequently there will be no extra copies of the book for sale when it appears May 1. "Persons who want 'Jayhawkers' must order them this week. When the 'Our Kansas Girls' Contest closes Saturday night, the sales campaign will be over—and the last chance to order a "Jayhawker" will be gone. We absolutely refuse to take any chances by printing a lot of extra copies in the hope of selling them when the book appears." BOOTHS MAY BE OPENED The selling campaign will continue with great intensity this week, according to Davis. It is possible that booths will be placed in every building during the last three days of the "Our Kansas Girls" contest, and that every student will thus be brought face to face with the opportunity to purchase. "A dollar payment is all that is required on an order," explained Davis. "The remaining three dollars can be paid on receipt of the book." Course in First Aid To Be Offered Women Ten Lectures are Provided by Red Cross for Limited Number A course of ten lessons in First Aid will be offered for University women under the instruction of Dr. A. W. Clark, director of Red Cross instruction for the Lawrence chapter. The class will open next week and will meet weekly, probably on Wednesday at Westminster Hall. There will be a small nominal fee, but that and the cost of the text-book together will not amount to more than a dollar for each person. Enrollment in the class is limited. Application for admission to the course should be made to Miss Margaret Lynn as soon as possible. Arrangements are also under way for a course in Home Nursing under instruction of a registered nurse. Definite announcement of that will be made within a few days. Dr. C. D. Williams, traveler and lecturer, gave an illustrated talk Friday afternoon in Fraser Chapel on the Indians Hopi sk dance as well as pictures of the ruins evidencing the civilization of the Indians of the Southwest before the discovery of America.

MONDAY, MARCH 11, 1918. Have you a little SALVAGE BAS KET in your home? SEEKERS OF HOLLOW GLORY SEEKERS OF HOLLOW GLORY The "Honor-Grabber" is one of the worst of the pests which infect the student body of this University. These individuals, who are annoyingly numerous, have their collective instincts abnormally developed, who suffer from the collecting mania. The idyllic dream of these ambitious students is to belong to every society or organization from the social and scholastic fraternities down to the Amalgamated Association of Energetic Organizers for the Humane Extermination of Superannuated Fungivorous Snails, and to accumulate a list of honors so long that when the annual Jayhawker comes out that below their printed countenance extra room will have to be created for the long list of "things he belongs to." Ye shall know the Honor-Grabber not by his fruits but by his methods. Primarily he, or she, is in popular parlance a "good mixer" an individual of ample assurance, sublimе faith in the superiority of his personal powers, a tactful manner of procedure, and a producer of concrete results in the gentle art of bringing home the olives. He attends all meetings, for personal reasons, for who knows but that a class presidency may spring largely from being on the ground at all class meetings. He is obliging about doing things for the man in power, in order to make an indeible impression of his ability. In the meantime he has done some real labor in order to achieve a few favorable comments and start the "brilliant fellow" ball rolling. It helps, surprisingly. After this manner offices and memberships begin to flow toward him. He accepts all important positions which he can contrive to make fall his way, regardless of what his conscience ought to tell him about his lack of suitability or ability to fill the place properly. During this time his efficiency as an officer may be nil. He lets the lowly other fellow do what is done, his own promises of achieving specific labors being followed by vain repetititions only, and philosophizes on his own supreme executive power. Chronically and perpetually he is terribly busy. But he does gather a string of honors. When the Honor-Grabber is through college he has a full measure of empty glory. He has usurped many opportunities for signal service to his fellow students and his university, and for the most part he has served not. The remedy lies with the student body at large; in their closer discrimination as to good faith and earnest effort and their closer adherence to the Point System of honors now in force. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT Just as the professor reached the important part in his lecture the students on the last row raised a chorus of coughs. It may have been necessary, but when it was repeated at various intervals as interesting points in the professor's talk were reached, it appeared to be forced or habitual. It was not much to fuss about and the professor did not mind the repeated interruptions, yet a little care in covering the cough or some attempt to stop the habit would have been appreciated by the students who were trying to understand the recitation. It's the little things that count A musical organization that puts as much time into the preparation of its concerts as does the University Orchestra at K. U. should be supported by a capacity audience of students, at its first concert Friday night in Fraser Hall. "Before the war things were too easy for us—we almost lost our souls." "I am led to believe," said one Professor recently that the waiters at the estimable cafes in connection with the Hill are in "cohots" with the students. They wait on every student in sight and while we impatiently wait for breakfast the students hurry to classes, sit delightedly watching their timepieces, thinking that the poor tardy old prof may stay away the whole ten minutes."

Crinoid's Age-Old Bed Broken by Dynamite Criny is an old fossil, with lots of stress on the age. Criny's his pet name. Society he would be designated as Mr. Crinoid. And he moved in marine social circles awhile before the geological period known as the Pennsylvania era, which by the way was the last Quakers came to live in Philadelphia—about twenty-five million years before, in fact. Criny was ushered into the light of a modern day when several sticks of perfectly friendly dynamite exploded last week in the rock at the bottom of the excavation for the new west wing of the Administration Building. There lay Criny, nestled snug as you please in the side of a big rock. He didn't seem to be a bit annoyed at having been thus rudely awakened from his lengthy map; he didn't even move. H. Kalloway, foreman of the construction gang at work on the Administration Building, keeps Criny in the tool house and he would be glad to show him to anyone who might be interested in an animal that lived when Mount Oread was at the bottom of the sea. Mr. Crinoid is a monopus, this is, he would be an octopus if he had seven more arms or legs. He is a first cousin to the star-fish, according to the men of Haworth Hall, who have a full brother to Criny in captivity in the Geology Museum. His arm or leg whichever it is, is about three feet long. The Crinoid brothers had a grandfather, say the people of Haworth Hall, who had a tail fifty feet long. "Come," said the beavers, "let's finish this dam. Here we've lost goodness knows how much time—and we have no time for play." The Junior Laws at Washburn have refused to have their pictures in the Kaw, the annual book of the College, and have refused to co-operate with the college. Miracle Maker Wakes Museum and Shepherds Century Circus Away Floary Ringmaster Reclaims Animals After Sleep of Hundred Years It had to happen somewhere. So it happened on the top of the Hill, the Hill that Kannas knows best. And it had to happen sometime. So it came when a hundred years had been slept away. Somebody had to do it. So the Ringmaster of the Rock-Chalk circus in and brought his circus with him. The sun-dial north of the red-bud tree was marking noon of the twenty-fourth hour of the three-hundred-sixth day of the hundredth year. Lucky the sun was shining. And the Ringmaster yawned, stretched, roused. The spell of a century was shattered. The spell of another again was the whistle on the power house, ten minutes late as usual. The Ringmaster cracked his wnip and it fell into molecules of dust and mingled with the atmosphere. Even if it had made a noise, there was no circum near to hear it,—not even the brown squirrel that always slept in the Ringmaster's pocket. RID'S SNOOZE NOT IN IT "H 'm,"—regular preambulatory ejaculation before philosophizing, "a ringmaster ain't a ringmaster unless he's got a circuit." The ancient sword tarnished tarnished spangles. "Therefore I'll have to find mine," surely concluded. NOW THE SLEEPING BEAUTY With the rusty remnant of what had been a pearl-handled knife the Ringmaster cut away enough of his hundred years of whiskers so that he wouldn't be tripped up; then he proceeded unevenly over the Hill. His hand was on the door of the Museum, and incidentally a switch to take the place of his whip. Switches were there—many of them, for you see the lawn hadn't been mowed for a hundred years. He went into the Museum's gorgeous ruin of crumbling stone on stone. And lo his beloved circus lay sleeping sweetly within! He debated which he should kiss to announce the end of slumber—the polar bear or the kangaroo. But he hesitated. They looked so tame, but so well-behaved, so well-preserved—he just had to stand in heartfelt awe. The Ringmaster swished his switch until it snapped. He gave two long whistles and two short—railroad crossing, look out for the engine—and then he dropped a stitch in his back with the anxiety that caught him there. Replacing the stitch, he made an astute observation. The jack rabbit's ears gave a shivery twitch and then a flop; the cotton wood tree shook its leaves in a real breeze that didn't come from an electric fan; and the coyotes all wagged their tails together in common joy. PALEONTOLOGY UNREELS PALMSTOLE UNDERLES With a clash of horns the rival moose finishes the dual while angle No. 3 of the eternal isoceles calmly chewed the stuff that man would eventually make into grapponets. The porcupine bristled like a bundle of barb-wire and the snake rattled defiance. Gray wolves began sneaking toward their prey again and pounced on the carcass of the aged buffalo. Mountain lions ducked behind the rocks because the lioness began 'to snarl. The goat bits at one another's whiskers, shook real hard, and said "Bah!" The evil eye of the fisher spotted a fat black squirrel who returned the malign glance and took refuge behind a rocky rampart. Strieks of wild laughter pealed from the wide-open mouth of the hyena. And answer came forthwith -wildcats mowed, bad dogs wandered, poses skypark for a long howl's inspiration. It was a Rock-Chalk cheer for the Rimmaster. AND BEAVERS FINISH THE DAM The Ringmaster bowed low, and prepared to make a speech. No use; the circus would not listen; the spirit of the parade was on them and it thrilled them. Already the grizzly bear was lumbering right through the glass casing to give the boss the glad hand and a welcoming hug. Then out of the hole the bear had made, trooped all the animals of the past. They boosted the Rigmaster on to the prancing steet of Custer and he led the whooping, yelling crew past the portal, down the steps and out into the warm sunshine of the plains. Gradually the thunder of feet die away. And only the beavers heard the far off thudding and padding on the prairie under an ever-advancing cloud of dust that obscured the departing hosts.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Charming Candidates Visit the Engineers For once in its history Marvin Hair was popular with women students of the University, when at 9 o'clock Monday morning all but two of the candidates for "Our Kansas Girls" section of the Jawaharlaye appeared in person and one girl by proxy to set forth their claims of beauty before the senior engineers. One candidate who is quarantined with measles was forced to make her claims by written note. The senior engineers will cast a block of at least 15,000 votes for the candidate they judge most deserving The candidates were escorted to the lecture room of Marvin Hall and each asked to give a short talk. Various subjects were used for the "speeches" but several admitted that according to the old adage regarding beauty and brains little could be expected from them. Besides, all of them agreed that the horrid old wind mushed them up so that they looked just awful. The doors of the room were closed to all except the candidates, their escorting friends, newspaper reporters, and the seniors who are to decide the vote. Flocks of underclass engineers gathered in the lower halls to steal looks at the rival beauties. Many of them reached the lecture and wild beats on the door but the beds were refused admitment. The occasion was perhaps the first time since their entrance in the University that underclassmen ever saw more than five women in the building at one time. building. The only women who ever admitted being in the Engineering Building said she was there two years ago selling tags. Another promised that in event of being chosen for the vote she would take a course in the School of Engineering next semester.

Each of the eighty had a different excuse, and some of them were great. "I couldn't come to the lecture," said one cutter, "because I slept right through it.

Anderson of Lawrence took to do their bit recently at Camp Funston. They appeared in seven concerts at the big base hospital at Fort Riley and in four concerts for husky, vigorous soldiers at the camp. "It was a gratifying and trying experience," Dean Butler said. "We went from one convalescent ward to another in the hospital, playing, reading and singing. When we finished the concert in the rheumatism ward, where it was uncomfortable warm and balmy they took us into the tuberculosis ward where every open and zero temperature raged. We gave our program in heavy coats and wraps. We sang before one of them who had nothing to tearsousitis and before all of whom were recovering from pneumonia. "As for those healthy youngsters, before whom we gave the four big concerts, they were the most enthusiastic and vigorously appreciative audience I ever was before and I've been before them all.

Dutch Uhrlaub's Lawrence High School quintet, champions of the Second district, won the championship of the Northeastern Kansas League Friday night on the Haskell court when they defeated Atchison by a score of 45 to 25.

County Clubs to Send Leaflets Over State Under the direction of the County Club Union of the University leaflets explaining the purpose and working of the Permanent Income Amendment will be sent out over the state for the remainder of the semester. Every office and department of the county is supplied with the state is supplied with the leaflets and they will be sent out with every letter leaving the office. An important part of the present campaign, according to Willard Glasco, president of the County Club Union, is to get the students to send the literature with their private letters. In this way a personal touch is obtained and the people of the state will be more interested in the amendment than they would if they heard it through official sources only. Leaflets will be placed in most of the University buildings where students may get them to send with their letters. The leaflets briefly explain how the amendment provides for a fixed limited income for state educational institutions and how this income is taken out of the control of politics, but not out of control of the legislature. They name the states that have adopted the fixed income method and explain how it reduces taxes and does not increase them. Transparent Soaps Have Sugar in Them Savings Dains Quit taking sugar in your soap. That is one way to conserve the sugar supply. Dr. F. B. Dains, professor of chemistry at the University of Kansas, points out. "Many of the transparent soaps contain quite an appreciable amount of sugar," Doctor Daina said. "The sugar is added by the manufacturer simply to give transparency and brilliancy to the soap. Soap with sugar is no soapier than soap without sugar. The patriotic thing to do is to cut out the use of transparent soaps, which may contain sugar."

Twenty-Five Players Try For Two Places On Baseball Nine NUMBER 107. Many Men Are Out for Battery Positions This Spring Few Veterans Returned Many Candidates Shifted to Football Until Out-door Work Starts The squad of baseball battery men working out daily in Robinson Gymnasium has grown to such proportions that yesterday Coach Dutch' Wedell ordered all but ten pitches and five catchers to report at McCook Field this afternoon and check out football suits. They will remain on McCook Field and practice there under the direction of Coach Jay Bond until the beginning of outdoor practice. Thirty-five men including both freshmen and Varsity candidates, reported in the gymnasium yesterday afternoon and there was not room for the entire squad on the floor at once. Nearly twenty-five are trying for the Varsity. Caler, Schoepel, Slawson, and Goodwin, candidates for pitching jobs on the Varsity, and Palmer, Pierce, Harms, Marxen, Shields and Murphy, freshmen pitchers, will remain in the gymnasium and work out every afternoon between 4 and 4:30 o'clock. Because of the large number of pitchers in preparation to the number of catchers, the entire squad of both Varsity and freshmen backstops will stay inside and warm up the hurlers. Cooper, Kitchen and Hershey, among the Varsity Catchers have shown good form in handling the pitchers and with Bunn, who will probably report next week, should help Coach Bond in solving the catching problem by the enlistment of Captain-elect Carter and the graduation of Smith, another last season backstop. Men Will Not be Admitted Because of Lack of Seating Capacity in Chapel Teetor to Talk Wednesday On Food Conservation Other candidates who have been working out in the gym for the pitching staff are Willems, Morgan, Harri Eagles, Keeler and Shores and for catching positions, Madden and Logan. Freshmen pitches are Palmer, Pierce, Harms, Mars, Shields, Murphy, Boyd, Wilcox, Judkins, Aach, Linski, Louden, Harrison, Harver and Sanson and catchers are Brite, Desmond, Chestnut, Eddy, Barter and Buckstra. All women of the University are requested to attend regardless of their intended life work: pedagogy medicine, journalism, or missionary work at home or in the foreign field. Thus far the men have shown as much interest as the women. The lectures by E. D. Teeter on Food and the War will be continued Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. On account of the interest shown by the men and because of the limited seating capacity of Fraser Chapel, none but women will be admitted to this lecture. It is not known what the lecture will be about. Skilton Writes New Cantata Skilton writes New Cana- ter another cantato has been writ- ed by Prof. C. S. Skilton, of the K. U. School of Fine Arts. While he was on his summer visit at the MacDowell colony in Peterboro, New Hampshire, Professor Skilton wrote the "Witches Daughter." It is now being published by the Charles Fischer Music company, in New York, and will be ready for the public by May. Professor Skilton received his idea from a poem by William G. Whittier. Carey Goes Into Aviation Walters, Carey, '19 with withdrawn from the University to enter the aviation camp at Berkeley, Cal. He left for the new position March 11.

Butler and Ednah Hopkins, who has appeared in many Kansas towns in concert work, will also take part in the recital. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY The bureau of labor statistics announces that the cost of living in Germany is increasing at the rate of 42 per cent a year. But who wants to live in Germany? American troops successfully raided the German trenches in the sector north of Toul yesterday. This was the first raid the "Sammies" have made alone. President Wilson has sent a message of sympathy and a pledge of aid to the Russian Congress of Soviets which meets today at Moscow to discuss the peace terms accepted by the Bolshivik. Petrograd dispatches say that Premier Lenine dismissed Foreign Minister Trotzky on account of his opposition to the German offer. Harbin, in Manchuria, has been named as the capital of the Siberian provisional government. General Pershing yesterday- reported the names of twenty-eight men killed in action. A recent proclamation compels the licensing of all private flying machines in the United States. German planes flew 300 miles yesterday and bombed the residential section and a hospital in Napel, Italy. Five new destroyers have been named for famous naval heroes. The names are: Thatchter, Palmer, Lambertson, Tattnall, and Kennison. Mrs. Lean Gulbert Ford, who wrote "Keep the Home Fires Burning," was one of the victims of the last German air raid on London. The average cost of training a soldier in the sixteen national army cantonment is $158. The cost per capita at Camp Funston is $133. Fifty-seven New York restaurants have been forced to close for one day because they violated the "beefless" and "porkless" day ruling. "The Soldiers' Families of America," a new patriotic organization, attempts to care for the families of soldiers which may need assistance. The officers of the 342nd Regiment Field Artillery, at Camp Funston, are endeavoring to secure all the star athletes who are drafted for their unit. The Kansas State Agricultural College and the University of Kansas have been asked to help train airplane mechanics. About 100 men will go to Manhattan soon to work in the shops there. Wall Street experts declare that Liberty Bonds will increase in value at the end of the war, the 3 1-2 per cent bonds selling for between 106 and 110, and the fours at 117 or more. Innes Scholarship Date Extended The Innes Memorial Scholarship for women, is again open to the women of the University, due to the fact that the woman to whom it was awarded last year has withdrawn from school. The time for the receiving of all applications was to have the woman to whom David Pennynah Oliver, of the department of Romance language, who has charge of the scholarship, but the time has been extended to March 18. Eight National army men, stationed at Camp Dodge, Ia., who had refused to obey orders on account of Socialist beliefs, have been sentenced to long terms in the federal prison at Leavenworth. The Kansan Board will meet Wednesday night at 7:15. Late comers will be considered absent. Send the Daily Kansan Home. Thermometers on Bulletin Boar Will Indicate Rising Attendance Daily Students Are Flocking To Surgical Dressing Classes of University Results of the campaign for increased enrollment in surgical dressings work will be indicated on the thermometers which were put up this morning on the bulletin board. Large committees of women in each class are asking every woman in the University to enroll for at least one hour of surgical dressings work a week, and each class is trying to secure workers for the largest number of hours a week. The campaign will close Wednesday night. By that time all women will have been asked to support this urgent war activity. Members of the committees are urging the absolute need of having every University woman join this Red Cross work in order to protect herself. This is imperative that no American men die in France for want of surgical dressings and equipment. Classes in first aid and home nursing will be organized and started next week. Miss Margaret Lynn, chairman of women's war work in the University announced this morning. Dr. A.W. Clark will instruct the first aid class, and a trained nurse will probably teach home nursing, an entirely practical course. Definite announcements concerning the time and place for these classes will be made later in the Kansan. More Men Are Needed For Senior Play Cast Try-outs Will Be Continued A Little Theater in Green Hall Tonight "More senior men are needed to try out for the cast of the senior play, "Fifty-Fifty,"" said Prof. Arthur MacMurray of the department of public speaking, this morning. There are eight men characters, four juvenile, and four character parts, in the play. All of these parts are good and there is an excellent opportunity for new men to make places on the cast. About thirty-five persons tried out for the fourteen places on the cast last night. The tryout tonight will be open to new contestants. All those who tried for places last night and some contestants are asked to come to meet them tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the Little Theater in Green Hall. Kellogg Is Biographer Of Food Boss Hoover Former University Instructo Has Periodical Article on "Hoover the Man" Each person seeking a place as given a manuscript to read parts of the play. A senior may try for as many different characters as he desires. The final cast will not be chosen until the end of this week. Vernon L. Kellogg, former instructor in entomology at the University, and later professor of entomology at Leland Stanford University, has an article in the March number of the Atlantic Monthly entitled "Hoover, the Man." This is one of a series of articles by Mr. Kellogg in that magazine on the National Food Administrator. Mr. Kellogge is now in Washington D.C., doing war work, and is associated with Dean Olin Templin under the direction of George Creel chairman of the Committee on Public Information. Owls will meet at 7:30 o'clock Wed ednesday night at the Pi Upsion house important Sour Owl and dance busin- ss. Don't wait—do it now! Buy War Savings Stamps! Mr. Kellogg was abroad at the time the war started out and was associated with Herbert Hoover while the latter had charge of the Belgian relief. After America entered the war, he went to Washington and offered his services to the government, and has been there ever since. Mr. Kellogg is an alumnus of the University taking his A. B. degree in 1889, and his A. M. degree in 1892. Famous Paragraphear of Topeka Capital Will Talk on Newspaper Brevities Jay House Will Speak At Dinner of Students Of Journalism, March 20 J. E. "Jay" House, the humorous writer of the Second Thought column of the Topeca Daily Capital and mayor of Topeka, will be the guest of honor at a dinner to be given by the Associated Journalists, the journalism society at the University, March 15-16, in the room of the Kansan of House will talk on interesting journalism brevities of the day. Jay House, sometimes known as Dod Gaston for his witty sayings in his Second Thought column in the Capital, is also dramatic critic for the Capital and until he was elected mayor of the city, he wrote most of the local sport stories for the paper. His speciality for many summers was the breezy reviews of the daily battles of the Topeka baseball team. Since becoming mayor he has found time to write only his sayings in the Second Thought column and to review theatrical productions. Jay House's short paragraphs are known and read in every part of the Middle West., Because of his interesting personality, Fred Rigby, president of the Associated Journalists, is especially pleased that he could persuade him to visit Lawrence. No One Missed It Until it Was Gone Mr. Shea's Musical Prodigy Was Silent After Wind Got Through And no one missed it until it was gone. The wind blew. But the whistle didn't when the wind got through. The old grim pipe that blasted out professors' last lingering thoughts and sent classes scurrying away for years and years of passing University generations no longer stood upright above the power house ready to be filled with résonant steam. It lay prostrate on its side, supine on the roof of the famous place where the popular Mr. Shea makes coal into heat. And it couldn't gasp a sound. Mr. Shea didn't worry, she also said he have to," he said to himself. (Nobody heard him say it; quotes are more deductions from subsequent events.) Long Meal at Varsity Club University Club Starts a Sublime Day-Then Remembers He rose at half past six and he who tumbled out an hour and ten minutes later sat at the same breakfast table at the University Club this morning and had time to compare relatives merits of their watches while they put away the longest breakfast ever served in the history of the club. All this afternoon vocal experts will hammer, hammer, hammer, and tinker, tinker, on Mr. Shea's musical prodigy. There is hope—at the powerhouse—that just before dawn really arrives tomorrow the atmosphere can be outraged. Sleepers will awake. Classes will begin on Monday and will end and on the interrogation point as of old. In fact it is promised that the irresponsibility prevalent on the Hill for two whole naughty days will be dispelled when Mr. Shea ties down the cord again and let's 'er go. Everybody was in the sweetest mood possible. Crusty smiled at the Prophet and announced that the medicine the Prophet mixed for his cold was more successful every teapoonful. The Crab rang up the register twice for fruit and signalled for more desserts, soaked, soaked. All time must have endured. All clocks must be crazy. The whistle had not blown. Then the Artist got an impression. He was afraid his class might not have the same feelings in regard to the hands on the various clocks around the Hill. "And they might not be there when I arrive," he said, looking over his glasses in a startled manner. His idea caused immediate reaction. "Aw, why didn't that man Sheen tell that his peanut roaster was busted!" this from the Brick Old Top cookbook. "I didn't dare干死 finish his French toast." And then there were curses, curses curSES, all the way up the Hill. Motion Pictures and Slides Depict Alaska An entertaining and instructive lecture about Alaska as given by John P. Clum of California, at 4 o'clock this afternoon in Fraser Chapel. The lecture was illustrated with colored lantern slides and moving pictures, and showed the marvelous development of Alaskan territory since it came into the possession of the United States and also the picturesque scenery of its southern and western slopes. Plain Tales From The Hill Margaret Young, selling tickets to the campus for the Follies; "Mr. Standley, don't you want some tickets to the Follies?" Harold Standly: "Why, no—I'm going to be in them." And away she went to make another sale. It happened on Tennessee Street. One of the fellows was supposedly taking pictures for his "K" book. Various ones were called out on the front steps to pose. Just as the proverbial smile blossomed forth on their faces, a bucket of water descended upon the heads of the unsuspecting victims from the porch roof. They are still wringing water out of their ears. Did-ju got yer pitcher took? The boys what is in th' 2 o'clock drill company did Monday. An' the wind, it just blowed an' blew, an' blewed their guns clean crooked, it did. An' their hats and creases of their trowsis was all blowed out of place, an' they didn't look nurture a-tall Margaret Young: "Oh, I didn't know that. Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?" An' then the 4 o'clock companies, it thought they would get its pitchers done tooked, an' they would be purty, cause they wasn't feared no wind. So the office, that them stands out in front or back behind, they wuz all up in their uniforms or new spring shirt, and you see how moistened their lips 'an' was watchin' fur the little birdie, but they didn't see it. No, not-a-tall. An' the kernel waited, 'an' the captans, 'an' the corporals, 'an' the fellers waited too. An' the street-cars went by, one by one, an' no pitcher-man comed, an' they didn't get no pitcher made after all. An' they got-ta fuss up again all over for a nuther day. Nominating Committee Selects Candidates Nominees for Y. W. C. A. Cabinet Chosen Monday—Submitted at Meeting The nominating committee of the Y. W. C. A. composed of the president, vice-president, general, secretary, and one representative of the association met at the home of Mrs. W. W. Johnson, president of the board of directors, who is a final five candidate for the cabinet. The following nominations were made; for president, Evelyn Rohrabhau; vice-president, Meriam Merritt; secretary, Margaret Walker; treasurer, Joseph Christie; annual member, Eleanor Moore. These nominations will be submitted today at the regular meeting and voted upon by the members of the association. Four Students Strike At Oread High School Follies Cast Reduces Cost of Production By Making Costumes You can't SPEND your money and SAVE it too! Buy War-Savings Stamps! Because they deliberately cut classes, four Oread Training School students were told not to report to classes until they had explained their action to Prof. H. W. Nutt, and were reinstated by him. The members of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, who are in France gave a dance in Paris last Friday night. Josiah Williams a student in the University last year attended. Chineland Ladies Are Stitching Up Kimonas; Spanish Chorus Gathering Bangles New Scenic Effects Coming 2,000 Tickets Printed! Seat Sale Is in Charge of Every costume in the 1918 edition of the K. U. Follies, to be given Thursday night in Robinson Gymnastics is being made by the "actor" or "actress" who will wear the costume, Students in the Follies this year have taken their material to a Y. W. C. A. committee to have it cut out. Each individual then takes the cut out costume and does all of the sewing. This is only one of the many bits of ingenuity being displayed by the cast in the production and by the manager and director, Blanche Simons. Not only will the costuming in them be complete in every detail, but some of the eclectic investees have been secured for the festive this season. Fortunately, few of the characters appear in more than one scene, or the problem of making costumes for the various scenes would be a hard one. Chinese costumes will be the order, of course, in the Chinatown number, which is to depict a typical scene with a bank of wisteria, chrysanthemum with blossoms in the background. New materials and a hysterical lighting effect are to be used to give the proper atmosphere to this scene. Spanish costumes will be used for the "San Domingo" chorus, while a knitting song requires summer girl costuming for the chorus. Pink and white frocks will be used in the color scheme for the song "Love's Lullaby." In the patriotic climax act at the end of the show military capes and cans will add a military note to the scene. Two thousand tickets have been printed and Manager Simons said that the sale is booming. Tickets are selling for 25 cents each, and there are no reserved seats. K. U. Students Given Chance to Purchase Annuals From Booths Beauty Contestants Will Have Charge of Jayhawker Sale This Week In order that every student may be given an opportunity to buy a copy of the 1918 Jayhawker, selling stations will be maintained in twelve of buildings during the last three school days of this week. Stations were drawn by lot this morning, and each of the fourteen candidates in the "Our Kansas Girls" contest was assigned to a place. Tables will be arranged at each station and appropriate signs posted. As there are fourteen contestants, and only twelve stations, two candidates will be unassigned daily. They are to work at will over the campus. A list of the candidates is printed herewith, together with their stations. By consulting this chart, students will be able to Hooverize on shoe leather when they set out to seek "the girl" in order to buy a Jayhawk. "We expect many Jayhawkers to be sold during the last few days of this final week of the campaign," said Don Davis, manager of the annual, this noon. "Everyone who has been putting off buying until now realizes, I think, why it is that we can have no extra copies printed; and, consequently, I believe the great majority of people who really want annuials will order them before the contest closes. It's a 'chin they'll get left if they don't.' The annual management absolutely cannot take any chances on printing more books than are ordered during this campaign." Hester Jackson was again in the lead when the votes were counted this noon, with Earline Allen second by a scant 100 votes. Josephine Huoni had climbed from sixth to third, and Hazel Cook had dropped to fourth place. The other contestants, in the order of their standing, are: Eileen VanZandt, Louise Logan, Marie Buchanan, Myrte Steen, Laurie Lynn, Jessy Wayty, Rhea Diveley, Dorothy Wiggins, Frances Adams, and Jessie Buck.

ROWDYISM One of the most disgusting things in the world is the practice of "rowdyism"-interfering with the peace of other people, and seeking to find pleasure in the destruction of property! It is with just such an example of rowdyism that one fraternity house was made the victim Friday night, when a band of unknown raiders ramsacked the entire first floor of the fraternity's home, overturning chairs and tables, strewing books upon the floor and otherwise reducing the condition of the rooms to chaos, to say nothing of the discomfort and inconvenience caused the members of that fraternity. Although the action of these vandals have taken place at only one fraternity house so far, two others have been notified by the posting of a printed black-hand threat upon their doors. This childish "horse play" would seem foolish even if there were occasion for a revenging spirit upon the indicted fraternities. It is sheer puerility when these "Halloween" crusaders are totally lacking in purpose. Whoever the guilty parties are, they should restrain their actions from any further practice by remembering that circumstances of this kind reflect upon University men as still being in the "sandpile" age—not only here in Lawrence but all over the state. It is just such things that hurt the University, block the passage of the Permanent Income Bill, and otherwise prevent all measures that would work toward the benefit of K. U. A paste tube each day Makes the SALVAGE BOX gay. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT It was the day of the play. Suddenly he remembered that he had no "date" for that show. Naturally when he called up there was small chance for him to get somebody to go with him. It was a trifle but if he had called on time it would not have taken any longer to find out if she would go. It was carelessness in a little thing but it counted with her. `\jar` in line for the Salvage sign Will clear your shelf and mint a mine BATTLE OF BRAINS Kansas lost. The Supreme Court was upheld. Colorado also was sustained. But something more than words were exchanged in the debate last Friday night; ideas clashed and ideas for their own worth found in the expression of themselves their respective values. Kansas learned something and Colorado learned something. That is, the debaters did, and those who had the sufficiency of sense to go listen to them did. Anthologies of elegic verse from the dawn of time to the sunrise simply could not be neglected. Neither could the tremendous tale of how the universe was made in retrospect by most approved scientific methods. Not for an hour, not for a momentary consideration of what the world might be doing in that hour. Relaxation would have been a different matter, however. If only it had been a battle of brawn. If only there could have been some wild cheering. If only one could shout to a debater to make three bags even if he had to spike the way round, or go through guard even if over the deflated body of his opponent. That does not require thinking. And it is much more exciting. After all, it is too hard to think; it is hard enough to do the prescribed thinking necessary to the acquisition of liberal culture, or rather a degree that says one possesses liberal culture. One of these days the Supreme Court and Congress will have it out. A significant issue will have $a$ significant decision binding upon a whole nation. Some people will know how to think when that time comes. And a great many will not. It all depends. Your old tire will help save a life over-there. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He was the sort of fellow who offered to pay for the drinks after the other fellow had given the money to the cashier. It may have been forgetfulness but it did not look like it. It was a little thing but it counted, and left an impression with the other fellows that was not forgotten in a hurry. CAMPUS OPINION All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. The name will not then be used unless you explicitly authorize the editor must know who is writing the communication as evidence of communication. Communications are welcome. To Readers of the Kansan: It's too much trouble to bring up your cold cream bottles for the salvage box. It's too much trouble to go to surgical dressings classes, and make bandages for the wounded men in France. You might have to go a bit out of your way—oh, the salvage room is right there, where you pass by it every day, and the surgical dressing room is in the most central place or the Hill but then it might be a step or so out of your way, and we would not have you go out of your way for anything in the world. Doubtless the captain is speaking just that way to his men "over there" asking them to go to drill. if they don't mind, and it isn't too much trouble. Doubtless they never do anything that's any bother to them at all and unless a German comes up and plants himself in the way, so that it would be a bother to walk around him, of course they never fire. Possibly you haven't time to make surgical dressings—it can't be that you don't care. But what—what under the shining Heavens should we take time to do right now, if it is not to win the war. M.

Ottawa University also joined the ranks of six days a week school for every alternate week. This closes the school year on May 17th instead of June 1st. The new member of the department of French was on his way to breakfast at the University Club. And he walked right by the little lane—it really was an alley—that leads between two ancient frat houses on Tennessee Street. No wonder he walked by. He missed a landmark. Guide Blown Away Prof. Almost Starved that famous little jockey who still stands as a relic of coaching days with hand extended to take the bridle of a prancing Phil Delta nag while sorrowful and sad, sidewalk, that patient jockey was gone. The wind had blown him away. But M. le professor did not wander far. Looking over his shoulder he espied his guide prostrate but bravely pointing the way to food and rest and entertainment. "Le pauvre garcon," murmured the kind-hearted new prf. And straightway after he had eaten he saw to it that the silent sentinel of the University Club was reinstated at his post. JAYHAWK-TALK OF COLLEGE LIFE ON OUR CAMPUS AND OTHERS A large 85-foot flag pole was raised recently by the University of Texas. The University of Oklahoma is sending copies of its daily to the American Union in Paris. In accordance with a decision of the student council, seniors at Cornell will not wear the accustomed cap and gown at commencement this year. Because of the theft of coats and hats that have been left in the library by students, the University of Michigan has installed a new locking check room device in the library at that university. The University of Illinois recently unfurled its service flag. The flag raising was a military ceremony. At present the University has 2686 men in the service and these were all represented on the flag, which was hung from two poles—DePauw Daily. At a "frugality dance" in Montclair, N. J., recently, those wearing patent leather shoes, silk stockings or high collars were fined five-cents each for each offense, those yearing marcel waves, ten cents, while wearers of evening dress or "costumes" had to pay twenty-five cents to the management. A considerable amount was raised for war relief. To encourage higher scholarship standards at the University of Louisiana, authorities have established a rule requiring that each Greek letter chapter in order to pledge must have an averages of not less than 75 per cent, and that the students to be pledged must have a like average.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN By Their Swords Were Great Men Even Known In Days of Old Japan Tsubas, or Sword-Guards, Gave Indication of Personal Bank All in Thayer Art Collection Today a doctor is known by his little black catchet; not so long ago, all good lawyers carried the inevitable green bag; and from time lost in centuries, soldiers have worn the insignia of their rank. Even so the ancient mighty man of Nippon found the only human way to make others look at him and recognize his due station among them. He had a sword for defence, but the guard of the sword that dates back eight hundred years marked his as a politician mighty statesman, military strategist, poetic genius or just plain village magnate and corporal of the guard. Pride of Past Now in University Treasure Store What stories those hundred old sword guards in the Thayer Art Collection could tell if they but had tongues and the inclination to speak. What strange tales of war, feud, honor and love are centered about these old relics of the time when brute strength and dexterity of arm were the law and statutes of Japan. But the record of the bravons in bribery buried a deeply in Sabines as the defence of the warrior himself, covered with several centuries of Japanese soil. And the sword guard, or Tusba, as it was called, alone remains to tell what little it can of each owner's history. EVERY MAN HIS OWN ARMORER For one thing, those old guards are a direct indication of the old owners handicraft, the soldiers or officials having made them. Imagine the gay young warrior, working day after day with untiring zeal and perseverance, that his Tsuba might surpass the others and be a fitting mark for a man of his mettle. It was no small job to make one of them either, with the tools which the early Japanese had at their disposal. If the warrior was in a hurry he cast one out of brass or bronze, fastened it on his sword and was off to the war. But if he had the time and was expert as to his implements for a few months, took a mallet and a cold-chisel and whacked away until he had hammered some of the cold iron. And some of those old warriors did remarkably good work, too. Give the man of today a piece of iron and tell him to cut a fanciful design with a mallet and a cold chisel and at the end of three days he would be a raving maniac with nothing to show for his labor. But, with patience and skill, the ancient Japanese stuck to it until he had accomplished his task. Those were in the good old days when the Taubas were made more for service than for beauty anyhow, and if the young Lochnivar did make a few mis-licks it didn't matter much. It was liable to be pretty well hacked up anyway the first time he and the fellow across the way broke loose and mixed it up to settle their differences as to which should marry that fair Japanese maiden whom they both adored. But at a later date professionals got into the game made a business of manufacturing word guards, not content to cut our plain iron ones, whose sole adornment consisted in their shapes, so they engraved pictures of gods, animals, human beings, reptiles, trees, houses, mountains and natural scenes and then filled these in with gold or silver. Nearly everyone contained some symbolism. WILDLY IMPRESSIONISTIC DESIGNS Among the Taubas on exhibition on the third floor of the Administration Building is one on which is inlaid, in gold and silver, a picture of the mighty Tonomori Tari, who, defeated in battle, has tied himself to a ship's anchor, preparatory to throwing himself into the sea. In the background is the Fuji mountain, which features in so many of the Japanese works of art, half and on the mountain is a tree, half as tall as the mount itself. Another of the masts in the collection is inlaid in a gold bull who is furiously tearing up the ground under a tree with gold flowers. In general, the Taubas are slightly oblong or round in shape. There is a hole in the middle of each, the size and form of the sword blade for which it was intended. In the majority of the guards there are also two smaller holes, one on each side of the central one, through which the handles of the ancient Japanese trench-knife and skewer passed. These two smaller instruments were stuck into the sides of the sword scabbard when they were not in use and hence the need for the holes in the guard. GLORY NEVER DIES The knife might have been for stiff short-reach blood drawing, but more likely was used to slice gourds for supper and to cut bamboo sprouts for garnishing the salads of the Oriental Avalon. No mistake about the meat; it was densely husked, utile in camp; the knight had to eat in order to fight. But the Tasabas, the bossed and graven record of by-gone achievement and distinction, are the real evidence in the case. The sword did the work and the accessory instruments gave the energy,-but the Tasba bears the undying story. No two are alike, and never were; each tells of individual ambition's realization of what it could attain. For each one there is a hero in the Japanese section of Valhalla. By the Way Eatless Initiation Banquet. Kappa Phi will hold a unique initiation banquet Wednesday night, at 6:30 o'clock in Myers Hall. Tables will be arranged with flowers, place cards and candles, but there will be nothing to eat. Regular assessments for the banquet will be collected, but the funds will be used to aid in the preparation of the banquet. It has been adopted by Kappa Phi. Initiation services for fifty-seven pledges will be held after the banquet, instead of before, as was announced earlier. Club Dance. Schumann Club, 1200 Tennessee, will dance tonight from 7 to 8 o'clock. Captain Lester A. Sprinkle, Eighth Cavalry, United States Army, and Miss Beulah Bartleson were married Monday in Topeka. Sprinkle was a student in the University until November 1916, when he enlisted in the regular army. He has been stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas, until recently, and was in command of a detachment which repulsed a Mexican raid shortly before Christmas. A war saver is a life saver!

Final Track Try-Outs For Jayhawker Runners Will Be Held Today Men Working Out for Field Events Showed Well in Practice Yesterday None of the Jayhawker distance runners did any hard work yesterday afternoon, because they were resting for the try-outs this afternoon. The sprinters took only light work-outs also. Howard, who has been working with Rice in the high jump, jumped 5 feet 7 inches. This is probably the best jumping he has done this season. Rice jumped two or three inches better and did not attempt to go any higher. Howard also did some excellent pole vaulting, making 10 feet tall. He should do such good work but should make the Missouri volunteer, Sylvester, work hard to get second place in the annual Missouri-Kansas meet. Smith, an old Baker high jumper and hurdler, looks like one of the best in the hurdles. His work has been constantly improving the last few weeks but he will be the athlete upon Kansas will depend to beat out the Tiger hurders. Haddock put the shot 39 feet. Liggett, the second best man in this event so far this season, was far behind. Laslett and Matthews Most Fav ored Candidates—May Award Eight K's Varsity Five to Elect 1918 Captain Wednesday The annual Jayhawker basketball banquet and election of the captain for next season's team will be Wednesday night at Brick's. The K's probably will be awarded, providing the athletic board of the University decides to award them by that time. There will be seven or eight letters given according to present indications. Two men are in line for the captaincy of the basketball team for the 1918 season. Matthews, center of the team and new man on the five this season, and Laslett, guard this season and last and mentioned as guard on one of the All-Valley teams, are the two juniors most likely to be elected. SPORT BEAMS The largest high school basketball tournament in the history of the University of Nebraska has just been completed at Lincoln, where more than 100 teams were entered and more than 1,000 high school athletes were the guests of the university. Mike Slatterty, baseball coach last year at Tufts college, is to coach the pitchers and catchers for the Boston Braves this year. The University of Colorado quintet easily defeated the Colorado School of Mines Saturday for the Rocky Mountain basketball championship. Captain Jack Cannon, former Missouri and Kansas City tennis star, has asked the Kansas City tennis clubs for aid in making it possible for a number of good courts to be made at Camp Funston for the benefit of the soldiers. Dr. Joseph A. Reilley, athletic director at the K. C. A. C., will have charge of the Missouri-Kansas dual meet this year, in the absence of George Forster, who usually has charge of the arrangements for the big meet. Forster is now an officer serving in France. The baseball season at Camp Devens, Ayer, Massachusetts will probably begin April 1, and inter-regimental games will begin about April 15th. The 342nd regiment at Camp Funston has arranged a plan whereby they are going to secure a monopoly on the athletes over the country who are enlisting in the service. Their regimental athletic officer is going to correspond with athletes who are thinking of enlisting and offer them positions at Manhattan until they enlist or are drafted, and of course they will then be assigned to the 342nd Field Artillery. Thirty men were out in football suits last night. Coach Jay Bond with the assistance of Laslett, Foster and Mandeville worked out several new plays. Applied Christianity Essays to Be Limited In Subjects This Year Hattie Elizabeth Lewis Prizes Will Be Awarded at Commen mencement Limitation in the subjects that may be written under this year for the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis prizes has just been announced by the committee in charge of this contest. This year these essays on Applied Christianity must deal with some phase of the application of the teachings of Jesus to interbational relations, and suggested subjects are, "The Terns of a Christian Peace," "The Christian a Soldier," and similar titles. The essays are to be completed and in the hands of the committee by May 4, and the winners of the contest will be announced at commencement. If the paper awarded first prize is chosen, it will be published by the University. The committee members call attention to the terms of the context, and emphasize the one condition that the essay must apply the teachings of Christ to present day problems. In formal statement, the committee says: "The committee has read many an essay containing admirable proposals, without the slightest logical proof that these proposals had their origin in specifically Christian ethics.

Hamilton Chooses Men To Enter Big Dual Meet At Kansas City Friday Time for Two-Mile Race Was Best Made This Year Quarter Mile Was Slow NUMBER 108. Final Selections Will be Made Day of Meet Practically the full squad of men to be taken to the Missouri-Kansas meet Friday in Kansas City, was selected Tuesday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium. The two mile run, up to this time one of the slow events for the K. U. track team this season, proved to be the closest and best race of the try-outs. Rex Brown, a new runner, made Hanna do his best in this long distance event, but Hanna placed first by running a header race. The time in the two-mile run was the best that has been made on the Robinson Gymnasium track this year. Hannah's time was 10 minutes, 55 sec. ha, Oglewie, who won a good race ist week in one of the try-outs was treed to drop out. Buffington came toor a poor third. The record for door track at K. U. is 10 minutes, age by Archie Grace two years ago. Murphy took things easy in his race, the half mile, and won in 2:135. Coffey came in second. This is fairly good for practice time but is much slower than last season's record. In the mile, Hunt, who made such a good showing last week placed second in a close finish with McCall, another new man who ran on the cross country team this fall. Dewall, who has been doing the best running in this event this year, placed third. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 13, 1918. The time in the quarter mile was poor compared to the usual time for this event indoors but it was probably the best that has been done this season on the Robinson track. Ralph Robkid may done some good work and was able to best Clift across for first place, while Russell and Shreve came in third and fourth. This leaves the entries in this event a toss-up but it seems likely that Russell and Shreve may be saved for the relay. Lobaugh and Davidson also ran in this event, finishing in the order named. Fearing is expected to run for time in this event this afternoon and Davidson is to be given a chance against time in the half mile. Haddock and either Liggett or Davison are the likely candidates to be taken to the meet in the shot put. In the high jump Rice and Howard have the field. In the pole vault Howard and Welty are the likely men. Men will be selected in the hurdle events in the try-outs Wednesday. In the 50-yard dash Lobaugh and Haddock are the men to win out. The quarter milers will devote much of their time the remainder of this week to the practice of touching off in the relay. With the possibility of the relay deciding the meet with the best chance in losing this important event and possibly the meet with it through lack of training in touching their runner. More than twenty-five men will be entered in the meet but only sixteen are allowed to compete and consequently Coach W. O. Hamilton will not announce his final sixteen selections until just before the meet. Designed Big Gun Finder A. J.

The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY General Crowder says no spy has been seen on the ground, and much as we hate-to, we have to believe it — Philadelphia Inquirer. One hundred persons, including many women and children, were killed in a German air raid on Paris last night. Secretary Baker witnessed the attack. The final quota of the first draft, consisting of 95,000 men, will be called out March 29. Kansas must supply 587 men. Provost Marshal General Crowder announced yesterday that the second draft, composed of 800,000 men, would be ordered as soon as Congress amends the law governing the number of men placed in Class 1. American fighting men have taught the European soldiers to chew gum. Germany will soon issue a new war loan of 15 billion marks. The German war debt now amounts to 109 billion marks. Congress has passed the Urgent Deficiency Appropriation Bill, which provides 1,800 million dollars for war purposes. The cost of feeding soldiers at Camp Devon, Ayer, Mass., has increased from 38 cents in September to 40 cents in February. At a recent election in Coblenz Germany, for a seat in the Reichstag the peace party's candidate was elected by a vote of 5,387 to 4,609. The next transport leaving Manila will carry 160 Germans whom the government is deporting on account of disloyalty. Paul Hennig of Brooklyn, a mechanical expert accused of tampering with gyroscopes for torpedoes and charged with treason, has been acquitted at the request of the District Attorney. The government will probably take over the control of the larger express companies soon, as their earnings are falling off very rapidly. Plans are also being made for an increased use of the waterways. The Daughters of the Orient, a patriotic organization in the Philippines, are making pongee shirts for the American soldiers in France. These shirts are said to be verin proof. Arnold Lupton, the noted civil and mining engineer and ex-member of Parliament, has been sentenced in London to six months imprisonment for circulating a pacifist leaflet. Germany has apparently begun a campaign of hostility against the Scandinavian countries, now that Finland is practically in her power. The first move was the cancelling of all Norwegian contracts by the Central Purchasing Co. Japan is still undecided on the matter of sending troops to Siberia. The forces of General Semenoff, the anti-Bolshevist leader in Siberia, have been defeated and are retreating into Manchuria. China has notified the Bolshevik that any move through her territory will be considered an act of war. The regular meeting of the German Verein will be held Thursday afternoon at 8 o'clock in room 310 Fraser Hall. Marie Deibel, c18, will give an interesting talk on the "School Life of German Girls in Germany." Cuba has borrowed 15 million dollars from the United States for buying war supplies, and Great Britain has borrowed 200 million dollars additional for the same purpose. These loans draw 5 per cent interest. Proposal Considered by Frater nities and Sororites in Monday Night Meetings Greeks Asked to Help In Baby Bond Campaign Prof. G. C. Shaad, chairman of the University war finance committee sent out circular letters Monday asking for the support of the fraternities and sororites on the Hill in the campaign for the sale of baby bonds. The proclamation was considered by the knicks in their regular meetings on Monday night. The committee has not reached all of the students in this campaign and believe, by enlisting the fraternity and sorority support, more students can be reached and more sales effected. The circular letters contained a large number of applications for membership to the University Baby Bond organization. Membership may be had by purchasing or promising to purchase a bond by July 1, 1918. The applications were furnished by the government, and the maximum cost of the bonds will not exceed $41.7. The bonds can be purchased in installments as low as twenty-five cents and do not have to be completed for three and one half months. For these reasons the committee believes that every student can purchase at least $100 on July 1. The fraternities are working on the proposition and will turn in their reports with the completion of the fraternity canvass. Interest In Contest Grows With Salesmen Working in Buildings Three More Days End Race- Booths Again Tomorrow And Friday *Bought your Jayhawker yet?* *Siren up here for your annual* And Friday These and similar remarks were heard in every University building today as a hundred or so K. U. women stormed the student body in the 3-day whirlwind sales campaign that is to wind up the "Our Kansas Girl" contest. Every candidate had a stationary chair, books, friends to help, most of them kept busy all morning and part of the afternoon, soliciting subscriptions. Each candidate will have a new station tomorrow; and the wholesale soliciting will continue until Friday night. Saturday, the last day of the contest, will be devoted by the candidates to picking up loose ends and rounding up those prospective subscribers who have promised to buy but who have not signed up. The contest closes Saturday at 6 o'clock. No extra copies of the Jayhawker will be printed and all who want books must order this week, managers say. More votes were cast today than on any previous date. Hester Jackson was still in the lead at noon, with Earline Allen a close second. Marie Buchanan had jumped to third place, with Hazel Cook holding fourth. Myrtle Steen rose to fifth place, and Louise Logan, Eileen VanZandt, and Josephone Huoni dropped to sixth, seventh, and eighth, respectively. Jessie Wyatt rose from tenth to ninth place. The remaining contestants, in the order of their standing, are: Jessie Buck, Rhea Diveley, Laurine Lynn, Frances Adams, and Dorothy Wiggins.

Three Football Squads Begin Formation Work Many University women still are knitting enthusiastically according to C. A. Randolph, secretary to Coach Hamilton. There have been thirty sweaters turned in at the Red Cross department to date, and according to the amount of yarn that has been checked out, there will be sixty more sweaters turned in during the next few weeks. These sweaters are all sent to K. U. athletes in army service. Fifty Men Out for Practice on Hamilton Field Tuesday Night Three squads were formed of the men out for spring football at Hamilton Field Tuesday. Each squad worked on new formations under Stem Foster, Jay Bond and Scrubby Laslett. Fifty men turned up Tuesday night and more are expected this afternoon. Coach Bond is giving each squad two or three formations at the start and will have them tried out in light scrimage game. Most of the men are green on the game but are getting the rudiments. Laslett worked on the line men part of the time, showing how to block and break up plaus. The varisty men have been on the side lines this wek, but will come out for work next Monday. The baseball men are working out with the football squads to get into condition. Baseball will start at McCook Field in about three weeks. The battery men are working out daily in the gym. To Send Frenchwomen Here On Scholarships Of French Governmen Students To Be Sent To Those Universities Selected By American Association of Colleges Two French women may attend the University next year on scholarships from the French government, which intends to send one hundred women to the United States to take college courses, with all of their expenses paid. The American Association of Colleges is cooperating with the United States Bureau of Education in selecting the colleges to which these women will be sent. It is probable that two women will be sent to each institution chosen and the women are required to be able to speak English fairly well as one of the prerequisites for the scholarships. Moderator of General Assembly of Presbyterian Church Will Speak Sunday Prof. Eugenie Galloo of the department of romance languages is very much interested in the possibility of some of the students being sent to K. U. Upon her request, Chancellor Frank Strong has written to the Bureau of Education asking that the University of Kansas be considered as one of the colleges which is eligible to receive these scholarships. "Dr. Chapman Is Speaker of Great Power"—Strongest "Doctor Chapman is a speaker of great power and of large influence and ability, and is thoroughly worth hearing," said Chancellor Strong this morning when speaking of the Sunday evening meeting which will be held in Robinson gymnasium. "It will be a very important day, and he hear this well known speaker and evangelist. His address will be of a patriotic nature." Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman is moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, the highest office in that organization, and at present is chairman of the National Senate Commission of the church. This commission is trying to reach all Presbyterian men in camps throughout the country. Dr. Chapman is one of the world's greatest evangelists and he has made several tours of the world in connection with his work. The service Sunday night will be held under the direction of the ministerial alliance of Lawrence churches other church services will be dismissed. Phi Beta Kappa election for this year will be held next Monday at 4 o'clock in Fraser Hall, Room 206. Talbot Talks To Journalists. Homer Talbot, secretary of the League of Kansas Municipalities, spoke this morning to a class in journalism on the success of a Kansas newspaper man, E. G.

Sprinkle Stops Here on Wedding Tour Things are still far from quiet on the Mexican border, according to Capt. Lester A. Sprinkle, with Mrs. Sprinkle is visiting at the Pi Kappa Alpha house. There are no organized raids across the border now but many Mexican bandita have been killed, he said. Captain Sprinkle convinced the authorities that made a recent raid in pursuit of bandita across the Mexican border. Captain Sprinkle and Miss Bee Barteson of Topeka were married recently and are taking a short wedding tour before Captain Sprinkle returns to his post at Indio, Texas. Captain Sprinkle is a former K. U. student and has been in the army since leaving the University about two years ago. Plain Tales From The Hill The wind blew tin frog off the roof Of Fraser Saturday. moved around the campus more or less sedately. Took all that she could carry; Plumped it in the shovel kit A co-ed came across the hill; She gathered up the tin, Took all that. In an interview the young lady in sisted that she was not a thief since there was nothing taken off the premises. The enrollment of the University has been suddenly increased by the acquisition of no less a personage than Eliza. That's all, just Eliza. And she, pleasant thought, comes to stay! Dame Rumor has it that when the University Senate took action abolishing all holidays, except Easter, for students and faculty members during the remainder of the school year, there was no ruling as to the whistle. The natural result, it is said, is to be found in the Bolshevik confusion caused by the whistle taking its vacation at this time. An opposing theory is that the extravagance of last Saturday has given rise to the conservation of wind; hence the whistle could not be blown. These theories were squashed this morning, however, when the old familiar clarion croaked again. Harry Morgan is working so hard and worrying so much over the Jay-hawker beauty contest that he says he is hoping the draft will come and get him right away. Out on the steps of Green Hall the laws were sunning themselves and resting from the heavy fire of questions which they had just undergone. Suddenly one of them, who evidently was on guard duty, gave a signal of warning—the enemy was coming. Instantly they all made a dive for places of refuge. Some hid behind pillars, some around the corner of the building; others rushed wildly indoors and, concealed themselves in such intrenchments as the doors and halls afforded. The enemy advanced rapidly, waving white tags of peace; but on arriving at the foot of the steps found them deserted. The enemy looked around curiously, puzzled. No, not amused! Then sniffed contemptuously; "Those awful Laws! And such a good chance to sell a bunch of Follies like this." Two conflicting dates on the same night. It may be the little things that count, but here are some of the bigger obstacles that make a difference in a student's life: Trying to run your best girl in the beauty contest when you are already behind with your classes. A crabby roommate when you want to talk about your girl and he cannot see your side of the question.

Senior Women Lead Interclass Campaign In Surgical Dressing Captains With Committee Making Effort To Enroll Every Woman on Hill Juniors Are Close Second Work of Making Compresses Has Been Delayed Because of Poor Attendance Each captain with a committee of nine is working diligently to solicit every woman personally. If any woman is missed by mistake she is asked to place her name and the number of hours she can pledge to the work in her class box in the women's cloakroom in Spooner. The senior women are ahead in the surgical dressings campaign according to the thermometer on the Hill this morning. The juniors are a close group, and the homestore has fourth. By Wednesday night it will be decided which class wins. The work of making compresses has been delayed on account of irregular attendance. Two hundred compresses were made the first week, 525 the second, 52 the third and 664 the fourth. Tuesday, 225 compresses were made which is the greatest number that has been made on any one day. At present the women are doing about one seventh of what they should be able to do. Surgical dressings and hospital supplies are of the greatest need of the forces in France right now. The goal for K. U. women has been set at 8,000. Fire Damaged Motor Car of J. B. Whelan on Hill Upholstering of Machine Burned Off—Believed to Have Started from Exhaust Fire destroyed the upholstering of the automobile belonging to J. B. Whelan, at 11:30 o'clock this morning, and caused considerable excitement on the campus. Mr. Whelan, instructor of chemistry last year drove his car in front of Fowler Shops, shut his engine off, and entered the building where he had some business to transact. He had been inside only five minutes before his car caught fire. The fire was discovered from the chemistry building. It started under the back seat, and the upholstered was soon in flames. Fire extinguishers were brought from the Chemistry Building and from Snow Hall, and it was not long until the blaze was extinguished. The upholstered of the rear seat was completely destroyed and that of the front seats burned. It is followed the fire might have started from the exhaust. Mr. Whelan said it was a case of hard luck, as the car was practically new, and the damage was not covered by insurance. Kansas Outgrows Rivers But Oklahamans Object Says the attorney general of Oklahoma to the attorney general of Kansas, it's liable to be a long time between drinks at Nowata, Ok., if certain thriving Coffeyville, Kan., industries don't quit dumping refuse into the Verdigris River, from which Nowata draws its water supply. He further intimated at a conference in Topeka that somebody might sue somebody, and so Dr. S. J. Crumbine of the state board of health has sent J. E. Welker, professor of sanitary engineering at the University of Kansas, to Coffeyville this week to make a survey of conditions there with Oklahoma health authorities and try to work out a plan satisfactory to the Oklahoma authorities and the Coffeyville industries. Mr. Welker also is to make a further study of Walnut River and its contamination by salt discharges from the oil fields. Augusta, Eldorado, Winfield and Douglas all draw their water supply from the Walnut River, and the salt discharges into the stream together with sewage, is making the problem of water supply in Oklahoma a serious one. The drought of this winter has aggravated the situation. Serve and save—buy War-Savings Stamps!

U. 25 and 68. The Daily Kansan aims to pique curiosity in University of Kansas; to go further than merely print the news for students to make the University hold on to plan to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be brave; to be wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university; to educate the students of the University. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13, 1918 WHAT PROFITS THE PEDAGOGUE? Drygoods may advance forty-five per cent, clothing thirty, and groceries fifteen, but the salary of a faculty member of the University of Kansas stands unraised firm on the solid concrete base of the institutional and constitutional Kansas policy of dollar conservation. Soulless corporations care for their employees with adequate salaries in return for their services, and occasionally swoop down upon some plodding pedagogue, triple his salary and bear him away to the business world where appreciation of his ability will be expressed in dollars and cents. Verily, the pedagogue was not born to profit. Inquiries made by the Kansan bring out the fact that ten American universities are making general raises of salary, of one kind or another this year in order to meet the high cost of living. Particularly those salaries under $2,500 are being increased from 5 to 20 per cent. In some cases there is a $200 gift. Mississippi is asking its legislature for a 25 per cent increase in the salary scale Wyoming has a regular annual increase of salaries. The majority of the ten universities at which salaries are being raised are state universities which have as a rule the lowest salary scales. A comparison of salary scales shows that Kansas pays the lowest salaries for instructors and assistant professors, of any state school worthy of note. In spite of this fact the legislature last year cut down the allowance made for salaries thirty thousand dollars. A diminished force must meet increasing responsibilities. Kansas cannot compare with the universities of wider reputation and higher grade with which she is competing. The price of pedagogy does not increase, even though everything else does. The inevitable result is that this university cannot attract men of great talent whose reputation is already made, and must furthermore each year watch more powerful universities claim a few of her men of genius who are building up reputations here. Kansas is not poorer than other states whose state universities fare better than does K. U. The difference lies in the attitude of the states regarding their state universities. Hush, little thirt stamp Don't you cry. You'll be a war bond By and by. LEST YOU FORGET Impossible it may seem, mid-terms examinations are but two weeks ahead. By that time your professor is going to form one-half of his estimate of you and your work for this semester. Spring weather and twenty-three other things may have combined to make studying hard during the last few days, however, now is the time to get into the game. Those of you who have loafed the first weeks of the semester will have to put in some hard licks from this time on, and vindicate yourself. Now that a young Kansas cyclone has blown some tons of roofing off Fraser Hall last week, why don't the conservation workers sieze the opportunity to fill their little salvage baskets? She tried to give a definite class discussion by talking in generalities that any student in the class would have known. She followed with weak pattitudes that bored her listeners. She thought she was "getting by." She took up valuable class time, when she should have admitted that she knew little about the subject under discussion. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT It was the little things that counted with the class. Will K. U. become wise after the Follices? HARD UP IN MICHIGAN HARD UP IN MICHIGAN The Michigan Daily Something or Other or just Daily,—that is about all it really is,—has just filled some of its expansive spare space with some startling news from the University of Kansas. At least and at last there was a colorful news item. The color was yellow. Salvage fails in Kansas—so the headline read and then the story told of a couple of lead tubes, three or four electric light bulbs, and a few scabs of tin foil which were the total contents of the two big salvage boxes here. Now is the time for the Kansan to get red-headed and rebuse everybody in sight. Why haven't you neglected those boxes? Why do you fill them to the overflowing twice a week? You ought to have been more considerate. For your actions have put the Michigan Daily in a rather uncomfortable category. News is news. Too bad Kansas students wouldn't be more accommodating and verify for Michigan Too bad! Too bad! Red Cross News FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF US ARE ENLISTED A Red Cross refuge home for 70 women and 12 babies has been established in Milan. A bulletin in French for the Red cross is now being issued and distributed to members in France and to editors of French publications. Whenever you write a letter, whether to mother or father way out nearer the place where the sun sets last in Kansas, or to him who sees the sun rising in France,—just write on both sides of the paper and close up spacing between lines. Then the one who gets your letter will know that you are minding our grand old Uncle in conserving his paper supply. It feels good to do little big things like that. Two Red Cross women workers in a village near Paris did some splendid work in record time recently. They had forty minutes' notice that 120 American soldiers were to pass through their hamlet and got ready right by immediately adding to their regular canteen fare enough fresh eggs to supply every Sammy. In the Philippines 4,576 children are Junior members of the Ameiran Red Cross. It has always been difficult to stir the interest of the natives beyond their own small home "barric." These Red Cross Juniors, however, make handkerchiefs, splint pads, quilts, ice bag covers, bags for crushed ice, strings for pajamas, and bed socks for the soldiers. Someone was wrong when he said East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet. That is, unless we are as he conditioned—pretty near the Lord's judgment seat! Send the Daily Kansan to some POET'S CORNER Oh! Why didn't I wait to be drafted? And led to the train by a band. And put in a claim for exemption Oh! why did I pick up my hand, Oh! why didn't I wait for a banquet Oh! why didn't I wait to be cheered For the drafted men get all the credit While I only volunteered. ONLY A VOLUNTEER Nobody gave me a banquet, Nobody said a kind word, A puff of the engine—a grinding of Was all the goodbye that I heard. Then off to the training camp bused To be trained for the next half year And in the shuffle forgotted I was a Volunteer. Perhaps someday in the future When my little boy sits on my knee And asks what I did in the struggle And his little eyes look up to me I will proudly look into his eyes, To that me so trustingly peer And say that I wasn't drafted I WAS A VOLUNTEER.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The Male Finds Why Georgettes Vanish Two student philosophers walked up the Hill together. "Why," said he, "have the what-do-you-call-me's—georgette blouses disappeared before a regiment of velvet dresses? Why do the dear girls tie up their necks—way up to the place where their ears used to be—instead of breasting the winds of March with unfurled wish-bones? In other words, why do winter clothes appear now for the first time since last spring? You're a girl and doing it yourself." The lady philosopher threw back The lady philosopher threw back her furs. "That," said she, "is a deep question. I'll tell you why I'm wearing furs. I don't want to take the time to put 'em away in mothballs. And I wear my velvet dress because my georgette blouses are all worn out, at last, because of continued service all winter long." "No, that's not a good enough reason," said the male of the species, who had been craming for a psychology quiz fully ten minutes before he started up the Hill. "There must me do it," psychological reason for this. He twisted up his countenance in an effort to register thought and conceived. Then suddenly she had a real thought. "Eureka, Kansas!" she cried. "I have found it." It is spring. Spring has came and made us crazy. It has temporarily unbalanced our reason, even as the spring wind Saturday unnaturally whipped me up, now see scattered around the campus." "Yes," he said. "You're right, the spring makes us crazy. It makes the weather crazy so that it blows roofs off, and it makes its props hold class overtime because they become so eloquent all of a sudden." "And it makes cub reporters lazy," said the lady philosopher, who was worrying about copy for the paper. "They don't want to work in the gentle springtime, and we have to do something else." We come back, so the cubs would work and I could go to K. C. and buy a new georgette blouse." Bv the Wav Raymond Hemphill leaves today to attend a house party in Chicago. Lieut.

Sometimes a careful attempt to define Christ's teachings has been followed by some in theology without real linking of the two. A paper of this sort fails to attack the real problems." The Hattie Elizabeth Lewis memorial was founded in 1911 by Prof. George Patrick, a memorial to his wife, Hattie Elizabeth Lewis, a former student at the University. The memorial takes the form of an annual essay competition and is open to students of the University. The theme of these essays, Applied Christianity, was determined by Professor Patrick.

Salaries less than $2,500 are being raised from 5 to 20 per cent. In some cases the increase is a $200 gift. Wyoming has a regular annual increase. Wisconsin is asking its legislature for a 25 per cent increase on all salaries. The majority of the universities which are increasing salaries are state universities, probably because the salaries in these institutions are below the average. Salaries at the University are lower than those on the contrary the legislature last year deducted $30,000 from the salaries allowance. Varsity Five Will Hold Annual Dinner Tonight Freshman Team Will Attend And Next Year's Plans Will be Discussed Coach Bond's freshman team will attend the annual dinner for the Varsity five tonight at Brick's. A captain for the 1919 Varsity quintet will be elected and plans for next year's team discussed. Basketball letters and freshman numerals will not be awarded until recommendations are made by the athletic committee later in the year. The race for the capacity of the 1919 varsity lies between Scrubby Laslett, guard, Kelacy Matthews, center, and Olin Fearing, forward. All three are juniors and each has played good basketball this year. Laslett is the only veteran from last year's team.

Untried Kansans May Capture Track Honors Despite Tiger on Paper NUMBER 109 Sixteen Last Year's Freshmer Build Team Around Two "K" Men Missouri Plots Out Score UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 14, 1918. Scholz Still Running But Simpson Not On Hand This Spring Kansas track fans are starting to figure what the final result of the Missouri-Kansas track meet in Convention Hall, Kansas City, on Friday night will be. This year it is more difficult to decide which will be the winner, for both teams have green, untreated material. But Missouri with five regulars from last year's great team back in school should win—at least two of them, two "K" men back around which to build a team. And Murphy, one of these two, ran second to Fred Rodkoy all last season. In spite of the fact that the remaining sixteen athletes to represent Kansas in this big indoor meet have had to be selected from the freshman squad of last year or from men new to Varsity competition, yet the Jayhawker boosters have the meet depe in favor of K. U. The think that the faithful work of the men who have come out for the team will bring victory to Coach W. O. Hamilton's team of runners and jumper. DESKS KNOW HOLDSIS MISSUOI The fifty-yard dash is a certain first place for the Tigers with the great Scholz running as he did last year. But there is no Simpson to come in second as he did last winter. Kansas should win second through either Lobaugh or Haddock. In the low hurdles, it looks as if Missouri would get both places judging from the work done in the K. C. A. C. meet two weeks ago. K. U. might slip in for a second place, but it does not seem likely. In the high hurdles, Coach Hamilton has Wetly and Hobart or Simonds who are capable of pulling down at least second. The Missourians are claiming both places in this event, but are expecting too much. TIGERS CLAIM QUARTER As usual the Missourians are claiming first place in the quarter mile with a new recruit handling the event. Last year Missouri claimed to have four men who could do this event in less than 49 seconds, but O'Leary was able to win first in 51 seconds and beat his man in the relay later. Kansas is not boasting of the large number of runners out for this event. None of them has done remarkable work but the Kansas coaches will be disappointed if either Ralph Rodkey, Clift, or Shreve does not get at least second. But if Missouri has a man who can run the quarter in 55 seconds, the event looks bad for the Jayhawker quarter-miles. Murphy appears to be a certain point winner in the half mile and Coffee, the other K. U. entry, has not been finishing far behind him, and may be able to get second. Roney for Missouri probably should be given credit, however, for second in the half. In the mile, a weak event this season it looks like first place for Kansas, simply because the Tigers have no runner in the event. Flint seems to be the best man, but he may be used for the two mile and if he runs in both, the two mile should be easy picking for the Jayhawkers. Hunt, a new man discovered last week, is running first in the mile, and Dewall is the other runner. In any event, the two mile looks good for two places for the University of Kansas. Rex Brown, who ran Hanna a pretty race in the try-outs this week should finish neck and neck with Hanna. POLE VAULT DOUBTFUL POLE VAULT DOUBTIFY The pole vault looks doubtful and Missouri roots are predicting first and possibly second place for their first meet. If he does not beat at least a second place, and he probably will tie or beat Sylveste, the Tiger vaulter, if he is in best trim. Rice should have little difficulty in winning first place in the high jump but Pittam of Missouri is expected to beat Howard out of second place. The shot-put looks like a sure first place for Missouri with Berry, a veteran of last season, putting around the meet runs according to this sched- (Continued on page 3) Mrs. E. D. Tector Gives Lecture On Food Values Both the lower floor and balcony were filled and some women were forced to stand through the food conservation lecture given yesterday afternoon in Praser Chapel by Mrs. E. D. Tourette, the department of home economics. The lecture took the form of an object lesson in the various amounts of food necessary to constitute a one-hundred calorie portion, the calorie used, be the large calorie, or the amount of food required to raise one kilogram of water one degree centigrade. The actual amounts of food are all by Mrs. Teetor and a banana and one pound of lettuce were shown to have the same amount of heat value. Eighteen bananas or a bushel of lettuce, she showed, would be sufficient food for the average woman for one day, providing the calorie content were the only factor to be considered. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY Dr. Karl Liebrecht, when asked it there was any chance for a revolt in Germany, replied, "The German people have been made like sheep. Sheep don't revolt." One pound of meat a week is the new British ration. The German sea-raider "Wolf," returned safely after a fifteen months cruise. German planes bombed the English coast without damage last night. Capt. Archie Roosevelt, son of Theodore Roosevelt has been decorated by the French war cross, Croix de Guerre, for gallantry in action. German and Austrian troops have penetrated Russia as far as Odessa, which has been captured. One knitting club in Kansas City has undertaken to furnish 18,000 pairs of socks for the men at Camp Funston. Nine thousand five hundred additional railroad men will be recruited in this country for service in France Camps for the training of women farm helpers are being considered by the Department of Agriculture and the Council of Defense. Fifteen workless days in all nonessential manufacturing plants during the planting season have been urged by the Secretary of Agriculture. The British Admiralty has thanked the men of the American destroyer, Parker, for their bravery in rescuing survivors of the torpedoed hospital ship, Glenart Castle. The new fighting plane, equipped with Liberty motors, has been accepted and will soon be in active use. Congress will investigate the aircraft board soon to learn the reasons for the many delays. The School of Engineering is becoming more organized as the race proceeds. Tags saying: "Get On the Band Wagon - Senior Engineer's Voting Trust" were being worn this morning, the understanding being that all engineers who join the "trust" agree to pool their votes for one candidate. Saturday will be devoted to deciding whom the engineers' votes shall be cast for some engineers said. Polls close Saturday at 6 o'clock. Miss Anne Hamilton of Birmingham, Ala., is the first woman to receive a commission in the United States army. Miss Hamilton, who received a commission as first lieutenant, is a bacteriologist, and will leave the commission, at the head of a unit organized to do biotherapeutical work. George Creel, chairman of the committee on public information, has sent a written protest to President Wilson against the War Department's new policy of withholding the addresses in casualty lists.

Folbles of Contemporary World Flashed In Maze of Scenic Variety Aladdin Is Outdone In Follies Fantasie Of Social Seditions Kaleidoscopic Glory Bursts Castles in Spain Fall Befor Chinese Magic and Let U. S. A. Have Climax Vanity is vanity; all is vanity. Folloy is worse and worse. And yet worse when it is plural. Thus reasoned the Censor as he yanked out the last long red spear of his wrangled hair at dress rehearsal of the annual K. U. Follies which just danced on his protests and marched on towards the culmination due Thursday night. "Thanks be, these come only once a year," he said as he landed on terra cotta in the corridor. The Beta banjo beaters, three on them, strummed requiem to the departed eynic and the she went on. Good things kept coming by threes —the Rubes, Hicks,—or just plain roses Agriculturists did their turn against a background of prairie pumpkins. And then they went their way. Temple bells tinkled and incense sprinkled and stars of China were lined up like a deeply sleepy poppies the whole Orient waffed in. A wand did it, a golden rod in the hand of a magician who has startled the whole world so far as the world is circumstanced by the Orpheum circuit. But China with all the almond eyed maidens with pouncing bells on their feet, China with all the splendor of blues—cherry blossoms, wisteria, chrysanthemums—China had to fade away. San Domingo blossomed in China's place. Nobody got the song but the dance was divine. She had the lingo well, but that didn't matter—everyone was watching her feet as she pirouetted to the music of a soft tropical night. The sphaget duet sung itself in. Italy had arrived before anyone knew San Domingo had gone. "Oh Plague I Itchy" simply raised heaven an inch higher. That wasn't all. They had throats like nickel-plated accordions and filled lil' mating meadow larks for seven grand encounters. They were good. "These are just fragments, just a few of the song hits," the impresario explained to the Censor who had mustered courage to return. "Then there is more?" he faltered queriously. "Ah, yups, much more," vouchsafed the impressario. "It all comes together at the end and the ensemble is chest-protected by flags of all nations that fight for right today. We all come home to the good old U. S. A. and the spot light of setting sun for the Follies of 1918 falls on the folds of the Flag of the Freed. Shoftall's orchestra will strike up the Star Spangled Banner." Students as well as residents of Lawrence received the startling information today, proclaimed in red ink, that "Eliza Comes to Stay." Even Registrar George O. Foster knows nothing about Eliza and as far back as the seniors can remember no one has dared come here to stay without surrendering a goodly portion of his life and giving his history to him before being allowed consider themselves permanently located. Register Foster could not say, however, that he objected to Eliza's coming. A board of the Y. W. C. A. censored the Follies last night at the final rehearsal. Only two features were eliminated. A late report from the manager this afternoon said that there was some difficulty being experienced in obtaining enough overalls. Eliza Has "Came" But Few Know Her But the wise student who usually has inside information on what is going on and on who is coming and the professors who are usually consulted he will be still guessing as to the identity of this mysterious, elusive Eliza. Mrs. Eustace Brown seems to have authentic information as to just who After careful study of the conflicting reports the consensus of opinion is that Eliza is one of "Our Kansas Girls." Government to Delay Opening Army Schools For Drafted Mechanics Action of Officials Will Not Be Definite Until After June 1 June 1 Training in Auto School Two Automobile Schools i Kansas City Have Been Chosen for Men Action of army officials regarding the establishment of a technical army school at K. U. for men called in the second draft has been delayed until at least after June 1, according to information given out by Chancellor Strong this morning. Notice to this effect has just been received by the Selection of schools of this sort made limited to schools for automobile training and no university or college either in Kansas or Missouri has been selected. Two automobile schools in Kansas City, Missouri, were chosen. The plan of the government was to establish training schools in several universities to instruct drafted men in automobile engineering, aviation engineering and blacksmithing. Both K. U. and the State Agricultural College were inspected by army men and it was thought that government schools might be established at both these institutions. The facilities of the school, like the University are very good for this work and the permanent school would have been established at the School of Engineering. This would have necessitated the dismissal of the engineering students on May 1. Although technical training schools have been limited to automobile schools of instruction at the present time it is not impossible that the school will be established at the University after June 1, according to Chancellor Strong. The final settlement of the draft date may definitely decide where the training schools will be located. Sophomores Lead In Big Surgical Dressing Drive at University Campaign Is Extended Ur Monday—Helen Bender Holds Record The sophomores lead in the big surgical dressing drive with 168 hours pledged to the work; the juniors follow with an average of 149 hours; the seniors dropped to third with a total of 101 hours; the freshmen are fourth with an average of eighty-three hours. This makes a total of 497 hours pledged to the surgical dressing work thus far. The campaign has been extended to Monday as it has been difficult for some of the committee members to find the girls which have been assigned to them, but Monday the final vote will be taken and the winner in the big campaign announced. Helen Bender one of the sophomore memoirs for turning in eighty-three hours of work in the hours that has been turned. All the committee members are asked to turn in their hours as soon as possible so that a final estimate of the work can be determined. All of the committees are asked to meet Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock in Room 218, Fraser Hall, to conclude preparations for plans for the surgical dressing work.

The tryouts are continuing and the entire cast will be announced soon The practices for the play will commence immediately in order to get the play ready for presentation in April. The exact date for the play has not been decided. Plain Tales From The Hill Although most of the weather prophets, goose-bone and otherwise, have knocked on wood immediately after prophesying that "Spring has came," one sign that is a sure precursor has appeared on the campus. Along the whole line of students taat stretches along the sidewalks from Haworth Hall to Spooner, the bright spring coats of the co-ed eads dasc the masculine eye. Vivid reds, "yallers" purple, greens and combinations of colors that defy classification are displayed. And it is said that "following the colors" is not unpopular among some on these spring days. It was an economics class, having a heated argument as to which was the richer and better community; the one that spends money freely or the one that saves money. Contrary to appearances, the sweaters the spring football men are wearing are not made of discarded lace curtains or worn off mosquito netting. Neither did moths eat the holes they during the months they have lain idiom. Advice from one of the football men explains that they are simply a "holesome" form of conservation. Although no evidences of a crime wave have appeared at K. U., nevertheless hold-ups have become so frequent that many have suggested personal bodyguards for students few days ago practically every student was held up by solicitors for the K. U. Follies and in many cases the victims were forced to search their own pockets. Professor: "But, Miss Burke said that money circulates just as rapidly when you put it in the bank as when you spend it for gasoline. What do you say to that, Brown?" Brown, with a sigh like that of a dying gladiator: "Not a thing." Laslett Elected Captain Of 1918 Basketball Team Now groups of fair thug-ettes waylay all comers in the halls of nearly all the buildings, canvassing for Jayhawker purchasers. Practically all these acts occur in broad daylight. Thus far no complaints have been made to the local police. No Basketball Letters Were Awarded At Annual Banquet Last Night Seubby Laslett, captain-elect of the football team for the 19th season, was elected captain of the basketball team for the coming year at the annual basketball banquet last night at Bricken's Cafe. Laslett, who is a junior in the college has played at guard on the K. U. five for the last two seasons and this year he was named as all valley guard on one of the All-Mis souri Valley teams picked by conference officials. Laslett has been the main factor in the great smashing play which has characterized the Jayhawker attack in basketball for the last two seasons. He was selected as an all-valley end and then named captain of the eleven. Four K. U. Men Called In First County Draft Four K. U. men, Dr Winthrop P. Haynes, G. James. A grkr. Erval Coffey, and Hugh L.Hook, are among the sixteen men to be called in the draft in Douglas County. Only eight men are needed to fill the quota for this county, but farmers will be required to fill the quota, have enlisted, making it necessary to notify sixteen registrants in order to get eight men for service. This is the first increment of men to be called from this county under the draft. More than enough men had enlisted from the county to fill the quota for the first draft. Fifty Scientists Meet In Semi-Centennial Of Academy of Science Ex-Chancellor Snow Active in Starting Organization Back in 1867 War Cut Down Attendance "There would have even been a larger "representation," said Mr. Wilson, secretary of the organization, "but on account of war conditions many of the members were working over time and many of the members will be unable to attend." Troubles With Indians Hindered Members From Participating in Early Meetings Fifty scientists from colleges over the state are expected at the Semicentennial session of the Kansas Academy of Science which will open in Snow Hall Friday. Besides these, two other academies have accepted the invitation to participate in the Anniversary exercises. The Kansas Academy of Science was organized at Topeka, 1867, in the old Lincoln College. Ex-Chancellor Snow of the University was active in starting the organization. "At this time," said Mr. Wilson, traveling was made difficult by the Indians. At one meeting held in Topeka a representative from Manhattan as unable to come because a party of Indians were on the war-path. The membership now reaches two hundred. WILL REMIVE ITS ACTIVITIES The Academy will reconvene at 1:30 p. m. in Snow Hall for the anniversary session at which the entire program will be devoted to a review of the activities of the academy and to the scientific progress in Kansas in the last half century. At 4:30 p. m., the Academy will adjourn to Frasier Hall where the chief lecture of the session will be given by Professor S. W. Williston, of the University of Chicago. At 6:00 p. m. the dinner will be held for the Academy to receive prizes, and guests. Professor E. H. S. Bailey will act as taesterm. PAPERS COVER WIDE RANGE On Saturday the main session will be held for the reading of the papers from general progress. These include a list of subjects, and represent the work of the faculty at Academy throughout the state. Among the papers which may be especially mentioned are those by Dean Sayre on "War Bread and Coffee," and by Professor Terrill on the "New Kansas-Oklahoma Zinc Field." The meeting of the Academy will be Some person entered Spooner Library last night and stole the photographs of the University women in "Our Kansas Girls" contest from the bulletin board which has been taken from its place on the campus each night and placed in the Library Hall. The robbery occurred between 9:30 and 10 o'clock, as the pictures were seen by several students leaving the building at half an hour before the library closed. Somebody Liked Photos And So They Took Them The meeting of the Academy will be open to the public. It was probably the work of more than one person, because the lock on the bulletin board was pried loose and broken, and the card with the name of the person who is going to Vote For? was turned over and "Thanks?" scrawled on its back. Theft of Beauty Pictures Hurts Contest Which Ends Saturday The theft has been reported to the University authorities, and drastic action may be taken if the thief is discovered. The pictures in the case were expensive, costing from a dollar to ten dollars each. Interest in the race had developed to fever heat today, with all candidates urging their friends to buy Jayhawkers and cast votes in their favor. The last count before the final one will be made this afternoon, and the standings will appear on television between acts, at the K. U. Follies. The number of votes which the leading contestant has polled will also be given out. A DAILY LETTER HOME—The Daily Kansas.

MARCH 14, 1918 STINGINESS AND STARVATION It really isn't so bad as that. Self-sacrifice is an overworked word but both man and his long-suffering Maker know that it isn't an overworked practice. Stinginess should begin severely at and stay there, and should apply only to one's self. Then one can approach the ideal of self-denial only if it is in the interest of others, especially of one's countrymen. Starving is harrowing. Nobody likes to think of it. Some people are doing it. But not on Mount Oread. There is no call for it. Gluttony is a thing of the past, however, and intelligently commanded appetites are getting proper, sufficient satisfaction. America has not begun to save yet. Stinginess and starvation are not yet come. They may not come. That depends on healthy economy and deliverate saving now. Penury is a different matter. So is national insolence. There is an obligation in just being an American these days. We win or we go broke together. And we are going to win. Then don't look like martys ready for the stake. Don't shrink as if a crushing blow were about to descend on you when you meet a word or a sign that mildly suggests you buy a stiftamp or two or nurse along a Baby Bond. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT She eats her meals at a boarding club. She is always neglecting to pass along the dish containing the community supply. Moreover she has such an auditory failing when she is asked to pass the bread, that the more timid ones had rather do without than make the attempt. It is a small matter, but trifier count. FOLLIES SELF-FINANCING We have attempted to keep our recreations as near the normal in character and frequency this winter as has been possible because of the unnormality of the times, believing that such was the best course. But these entertainments have been relieved of all extravagant or unpatriotic character in being simplified to the last degree. Expensive features have been strictly tabooed. Many of the entertainments given have turned over part or all of the profit made to war relief work. Possibly it has occurred to many students that the advisability of giving the annual Follies this year was doubtful. Costumes are the main item of expense of the production. Practically every act requires costumes, and some acts a change of costumes. But this year each member of the cast makes and furnishes his own costumes. After this fashion the Follies cast is sewing, turning out robes for maidens Chinese, senatoras Spanish, summer girls, minstrels and university "Patrias." So we need not miss the fun of the Follies nor go with an uneasy conscience, since the entertainment is being so largely financed by private generosity. Moreover, the precedent furnishes a valuable suggestion to managers of succeeding entertainments. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He was trying to catch a train. When the train pulled into the station he was still half a mile away. A small boy passing in an automobile in a hurried effort to get home slowed up and asked him to hop in. He easily made the train. It's the little thing that counts. Sorrowful Slackers Repent in Sack Cloth—Headline referring to the absentees from the food conservation lecture who were paying the price with a make-up quiz.

The University of Syracuse has launched a campaign to enroll at least 2000 members of the student body as in favor of National prohibition. The faculty will be asked to sign a similar petition. The object of the drive is to enroll every person connected with the University in favor of the amendment so that added emphasis will be laid on the passage of the amendment. CAMPUS OPINION All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. The name will not then be used until the communication is edited and the editor must know who is writing the communication as evidence of his or her work. Communications are welcome. After a little consideration it should be apparent that the holding of military drill classes overtime should have more publicity than has been given. Nearly every night the entire class is held ten or fifteen minutes overtime, and at least one company will be on time but once this semester. That once was when the second lieutenant was in charge of the company. The injustice of the whole matter is obvious. The two o'clock company is dismissed on time. The compulsory gym classes are dismissed on time. There are no reasons why the students who are so unfortunate as to be in military drill at four o'clock should be the only ones to suffer. If you are not to be held for sixty-five minutes at four o'clock instead of fifty minutes the men in charge should be courageous enough to say so. The writer of this communication has talked with Prof. W. O. Hamilton, head of the department of physical education regarding holding overtime and Professor Hamilton remarked that he is going to talk to the commandant about the matter and see that the classes were dismissed on time. There is no evidence that anything has been done as the classes with the exception of one company; have been held overtime every night since. However, the blame would seem to rest on the individual captains, as one company has been dismissed on time. As the semester is nearly half gone, as something should be done to correct this evil while it will still do some good to those affected. The four o'clock class has already drilled several hours more than is required. F. H. License to trade with the enemy has been given to the American Red Cross. That is the reason that they have the privilege of sending letters, food, and money to American prisoners of war in Germany has been granted exclusively to the Red Cross by Germany.

Baseball Candidates Preparing For Season By Indoor Work-Outs Ten Varsity Battery Men Appear Daily To Get In Condition Pitching Worries Coaches Practice Will Begin In Earnest When Candidates Go Outdoors April 1 Varsity baseball candidates are working hard to get into condition for the opening of the outdoor practice season about April 1. Ten Varsity battery men have been limbering their arms at the gymnasium for over two weeks under the direction of Dutch Wedell, freshman coach, and the remainder of the Varsity squad is engaged in spring football practice on McCook Field with Coach Bond as their instructor. Baseball practice will begin in earnest as soon as the spring football season is over and with the pre-season training, pitches, catchers, infielders and outfielders alike should be in the best of condition by April 1. Although Coach Bond has only two letter men around whom to build his nine this year, there is a wealth of material from the ranks of the 1917 freshmen, besides Foster, short-stop, and Stephenson, outfielder, who played several games last year and showed real form the latter part of the season. Wardie Weltmier, right fielder on the 1916 nines, has been working out in the gymnasium almost every day and his presence in the outfield has become an essential strength of the team, both on the offense and defense. Duck Scheinfeld; the other "K" man, won his letter at second base on Coach McCarty's nine last year and will probably hold down the same position this year. STRONG BIDS FOR INFIELD Among the sophomores who will make strong bids for infield positions are Isenberger, Lonborg and Machamer from Poty Clark's last year's frost team. Isenberger plays either second base or shortstop and is an excellent fielder. Lonborg is a third baseman and a hard hitter, while Machamer, a first baseman, was one of the most dangerous hitters among the big squad of freshmen last year. Besides Weltmer and Stephenson Smith, Oyster and Wilhelmny are graduates from the fresh nine who are likely to show up well in the outfield. It will be necessary to pick an entirely new squad of battery men this year, as there is not a pitcher or catcher with Varsity experience in school. The catching problem is not causing the coaches much worry, however, as Bunn from the 1917 fresh will be on hand and Cooper and Kitchen, two of the best pitchers in league, cled brd of receiving in the indoor workouts. Warren Woody, guard on the football team during the past two seasons, is another aspirant for the backstop position who has shown good form in the workouts. PITCHING A PROBLEM The pitching situation is likely to cause the coaches some trouble, as the arrangement which will be in use this year will necessitate the playing of four series of three games each with Valley teams, and this will mean that a larger pitching staff than usual will be needed. Caler, Scheppel and Slawson, members of last year's fresh staff and Goodwin, a new man, are the Varsity candidates limbering their arms in the heat. The team has been ordered to report for football until time for outdoor practice A large number of freshmen have turned out for the first year team and Coach Dutch Wedell will likely put a team on the field that will make the Varsity fight for every game. Marxen, Harms, Palmer, Shields, Aach, Pierce, Linaki have good high school records on the mound and have batted like Dr. Chestnut and a number of other catchers have turned out in response to the call for freshmen battery men in the gym.

Follies Convulse Big Audience That Rocks Gym to Foundation Giddy Giddap Chorines Upset All Precedent In Encored Success Throng Bursts into Cheers NUMBER 110. Most Fun K. U. Ever Had For Quarter of a Dollar Not a seat was left in the gymnasium last night when the curtain rolled up to reveal the first act of the annual Folies. The thrilling drummers let loose promptly and set the big crowd swaying with the contagious rhythm of joy hitting the strings. Willis Vanderschmidt, Edwin Patton, and Paul Pulliam made the banjos ring and Bea Kleir did some incidental singing when fingers got tired. This was only preliminary. Everything was preliminary until the Fun knifville Home Guards marched on board with the Liberty Belles. It was all good but this was like the Grand Canyon to the vales of the Ozarks. Hester Jackson and deh Hart galloped in in jaunty uniforms that were just a perfect fit. As soon as the first stamza of Gidday Giddan had got the front rows going, in stomped the overall chorus to crown glory with glory and set every last chair to the back of the gymnasium titting and jumping. Etta Poland next led the chorus in "Keep Your Eye on Little Mary Brown" and "Somewhere in France is a Lily." Little Mary certainly needed the watchful observation. She got it. MUST MENTION CHORUS The chorus which had this line-up, for the piay Mildred Payne, Myrtle Steen, Rilla Hammet, Genevieve Seairles, Ealaine Wharton, Charlotte Carnie, Agatha Kincley, Tereene Cutter, Eleanor Klee, Irene Edma, Eleanor The Chinese girls who laveled up a lajpa parade in Nemo's Land were; Velma Walters, Jessink Rankin, He尔唐 Thurston, Alberta Mack, Nell Miles, Ramona Kirkpatrick, Eloise MeNuitt, Dorothea Engel. Names can never tell how they locked together. There were other choruses too-witness the Singing Sirens who swept in with Red Cross blazing bags under the arms, with bonnets and a minute to make them sweet and quaint. Dorothy Button and Jessie Wyatt tripped gracefully through "Knit, Knit, Knit," Ethel Wykoff and Karl Brown sweat their pathetic way "Back to Italy" with feeling that found response in the gallery as well on the floor; Beatrice Klein successfully introduced a harmonious San Domingo which Willard Pierce broke up with a realistic revolution with drums and traps; and Irene Jarden gave the act benediction with "Loves Lullaby." Registration of joy was order-of- from Marvin Harmes, Dorothea Engel, and Bert Cochrane. They registered. So did the house beyond the foottights. "No checkee no lauee" was the general idea of Harold Stanley's feet with iron and shirt—with the assistance of a colorful Chinese chorus that chinked in the chinky chimes at the right places. Craig Kennedy stirred fond memories and livey imaginations in his circus-yoo-hoolny and kayne and his old schildren and people expected under the big top, where three rings had done something until the good old concert for each and everyone, man, woman, and child, came to complete the greatest show on earth. Then there was the farce—somewhere in the show—all aglow—tumultuous, terrific, smashing in its power to spread ribs and scatter hairpins. “Paddle Your Own Cane,” it was named and each major fraternity it was given by the Phi Alpha Tau honorary dramatic fraternity assisted by Misses Eva Hangen, Marie Buchann, and Rhea Diveley. The dentist and the music-master get deserved and earned grilles despite magnificent intrusions of ma of one bride, pa of another, musical talent, millions of dollars, and abstereous patients. Craig Kennedy and Harold Lyle with leading roles well known by landlords Karl Brown, Barney Moyer, Robert Robertson, Gene Carter, and A. Fellow. Laughing Gas got the real comedy started in the dentist's office and it didn't stop there. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 15, 1918. Woman's Land Army Organizing For Action The County Clubs will meet on Tuesday night at 7 o'clock in Fraser Hall, Room 110 for the purpose of deciding where to work. For farm work, for girls. The Kansas Unit of the Woman's Land Army proposes that women take the place of drafted men on Kansas farms during the summer vacation. At the meeting on Tuesday night a plan will be worked out, for organizing community centers from which girls will go and work. Every woman student in the University is urged to attend this meeting, and one girl from each county has been notified to be present. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY "Riper will eventually prevail," says the Kaiser, but offers no apology for delaying the day.—Kansas City Star. General Pershing's latest casualty consists of seventy names, sixteen killed and fifty-four injured. The Senate military committee has unanimously disapproved the objection to laws giving men in the aviation service an increase in pay of about fifty per cent. The American artillery stopped fur-ter German gas raids by destroying four groups of gas projectors this week in the Toul sector. The administration will give Congress first hand information from now on as to the progress of the war, in order to avoid criticism of the secrecy of the war plans. A bill for increasing the enlisted personnel of the navy from 150,000 to 228,000 has been submitted to the committee on naval affairs in the House. A concrete ship was successfully launched at a Pacific port yesterday, and the experiment was so successful that the makers have decided to build fifty-four more at once. President Wilson has issued a proclamation calling upon all boys over sixteen years of age to enroll in the National Boys' Workside, during the week of March 18 in order to do farm work The American Rainbow Division is holding an important portion of the Lorraine sector. General Gerard, commander of the 8th French army, commended them recently for their bravery in repulsing the German raid of March 5. The National Food Administration is planning to increase the meat exports to the Allies by fifty per cent. The Allies have agreed to furnish all the shipping to take care of the extra transportation. A bill calling for a naval appropriation of $1,325,000,000 was reported out by the House committee on naval affairs Thursday. This is the largest appropriation ever asked for the United States navy. The Allies will seize one million tons of Dutch shipping March 18 unless Holland accepts the proposed agreement providing for their use in the war. According to international law, belligerents may seize neutral shipping if sufficient compensation is made. Three full baskets he gathered.

Dr. Chapman's Meeting In Gymnasium Comes At 7:30 o'Clock Sunday Four Advanced to Accomodate Visitor Who is Visiting Colleges Because the speaker of the evening has to take a 9 o'clock train out of Lawrence, the J. Wilbur Chapman meeting will be held at Robinson Cyanamusium Sunday evening at 7:30 instead of at 8 o'clock as first plenums. Doctor Chapman, who is chairman of the National Service Commission of the Presbyterian Church, as well as mediator of the General Assembly of that body, is making a tour of the colleges of the country in the interests of religious and educational reasons. R. C. Hughes, secretary of the Section on University Work of the Presbyterian Board of Missions. Doctor Chapman will be in Lawrence all day Sunday, addressing the Presbyterian University students' Bible class at 9:30 and speaking at the First Presbyterian Church at 10:30. The subject will be, "What is the Use of Religion?" Chancellor Frank Strong will preside at this meeting. "I wish that every student in the University would make a special effort to hear Dr. Chapman," said Chancellor Strong today. "He is one of the most powerful evangelists and religious leaders of our country and, as an educator and an author of many books, he has a prominent place in the curriculum. He is bright at Lawrence under the auspices of the ministerial alliance of the city, I think it my duty to offer the use of Robinson Gymnasium for the address so that every one may have the opportunity to hear him." It's a Great Job Says Paris of Troy "I hope the Jayhawk fellows have better luck than I did in picking the most beautiful women of the times," said Mr. Paris, lute of the city of Troy. "Well do I remember the beautiful spring morning when Venus and Juno called me to umpire the first beauty contest. Oh, that I had had the wisdom that I now have! Think of the long years of war that might have been avoided! How much more the Huns would have had to study out for themselves if we had not first had the Trojan horse trick played! Oh, that I had heeded the words of Father Priam, "Bewared of women!" And luckless Paris wandered discombustibly about the broad spaces of Paris. "I realize now," continued the visitor from by-gone ages, "that beauty is not only in the lines of a profile, nor dainty lips. There is a sparkle in the eye, a fleeting smile that will transform any face. "Stop your laughing! Haven't had three thousand years to study over this? Haven't heard that old scrib伯, Ruskin, expatiating on the inability of an artist to put light into a picture; or the inability of color: of the picture; the flag of the eye, the smile, are the light which oc cur only in nature." GO TO Y. W. Conference A number of K. U. women will go to Ottawa tonight to attend a Y. W. Y. A. conference of the new cabinets in the various schools over the state. Among those who will go are: Dorothy Sandberg, Miriam Merritt, Esther Moore, Evelyn Rorabach, Margaret Walker, Dorothy McCamish, Mary Barnett, Jean Coffin, Helen Jackson, Margaretta Stévenson, Mary Brownne, Imogene Gillispie, Viola Engle, Sellie Reece Evans, Edna Burch and Ray Dodderidge. And like a wraith the visitor disappeared. Go To Y. W. Conference George Terry Called To Washington. George Terry, a graduate student in the University, with his minor in the Bacteriology Department, has been called to the Army Medical School at Washington, to finish his training preliminary to doing bacteriological work for the government. Cyrus Crane, 'I57, has been nominated on the Republican ticket for mayor of Kansas City. Crane has been practicing law in Kansas City since he was graduated from the University. He has held no public office before. High Schools Fight For Honors in Tourney Held Here Next Week District Winners Will Enter Basketball Meet For State Championship The State high school basketball tournament to be held here next Friday and Saturday will be as big as any tournament in the past, if entries and inquiries already received by Manager Hamilton from a large number of high schools over the state are any indication. Although the entries are not due until tomorrow, several are already on hand and waiting to be listed. Manager Hamilton said he expected the entry list would equal that of last year. The competition should be much greater than last year, when Newton ran away with the state title after a series of easy victories. Several teams in the state seem to be equally matched this year. Newton, with the same pair of little forwards who worked so well here last year, is certain to be in the running. Wichita must also be taken as a contender for the title, as it has an excellent record in the Arkansas Valley League and has been the only team to beat Newton. Wichita has also defeated Central High of Kansas City, but has won to Winfield and Arkansas City. LAWRENCE CHANCES GOOD Atchison, Topka, Leavenworth and Bonner Springs seem to be the class of the first district and it is probable that most of these teams will be represented here next Friday and Saturday. Lawrence High has an excellent chance to finish high this year and there are plenty of the followers of the Lawrence quarterback team until the last. Iola, Ottawa and Fort Scott are other Second District teams with classy records. Chanute, Parsons, Winfield and Arkansas City stand supreme in the third district and Emporia has already defeated Marion for the fourth district title. Emporia has a veteran team and should give the other quintets a great battle for the state championship. Solomon will represent the fifth district here next week, having defeated the fast Manhattan five on the Manhattan court for the district title several days ago. Little is known of the sixth district fives and Hutchinson, Nickerson and Kingman probably have the best quintets in the seventh district. Leader of Beauty Race Has Polled 31,360 Votes Annual Manager Announced Standing of Contestants at Follies in Gym With Hester Jackson still in the lead,next to the last count in the "Our Kansas Girls" Contest was made at the Follies. The final count will be made after the polls close Saturday, at 6 p.m. Miss Jackson, who was leading last night, has polled a total of 31,300 votes. The other candidates, in the order of their standing, are: Earline Allen, Hazel Cook, Myrte Stone, Marie Buchanan, Louise Logan, Elieen Vanzand, Josephine Huhn, Jessie Wyatt, Frances Adams, Jessie Buck, Laurine Lynn, Rheast, Diveley, Dorothy Wiggins. The contest closes Saturday at 6 o'clock. The Jayhawker office in the Kansan building will be open all day and the only ballot box will be stationed there. All votes cast must be brought to the Jayhawker office. "Several seniors and a large number of organizations have not yet paid their dues," said Harry Morgan, editor of the Jayhawker, this morning. "They must do so if they want their votes to be counted in the 'Our Kansen Leaders' initiative for space, from seniors, juniors, sophomores, and organizations, and every cent paid in for subscriptions to the Jayhawker is good for one vote." It was rumored that the engineers had decided to whom they would give their pooled votes; and various "campaign managers" have been making statements that their candidate had "held out" enough votes to counteract the engineering vote in case it went against them. The Methodist League will give a party in Myers Hall tonight at 8 o'clock for all Methodist students and their friends. Seniors Should Consult Foster About Degrees Members of the senior class are being notified to report at the Registrar's office in the next few days to check over their credits and grades for application for degrees. Each school in the University has its own requirements for degrees granted for the completion of the four year's work and in the College a requirement is also made that a candidate for the A. B. degree must have a record of eighty hours of I's and II's and A's B's and Cs. Each senior's record must be checked over to see that all requirements have been met and then the application for the degree must be filed. Plain Tales From The Hill Two world worn and weary University men stood in front of the beauties of the Hill, as portrayed in the frame at the parting of the ways. "Aw, well, they all look alike outside a picture," one drawled cynically. "I don't know any of them, anyway." In addition to the little things that count, the masculine student finis larger boulders that obstruct his well-paved path. Such as, for instance: Financial weakness when you are trying to do a good job of rushing your girl in competition with five other fellows. News that the family will come to visit you on the following week-end and you are dated up every night. Long discussion in first meeting when you have a date at the library and it is almost time for Spooner to close. Company E of the military drill regiment had stood the strain of getting itself photographed Wednesday afternoon. The photographer had finished the job, then he captain, Burney Miller, nodded, and said; "All right," sergeant." When she is happy, she bursts out into a French love song: "Pour un peu d'amour," and so on. When her typewriter nulled strikes the wrong letter, or her memory falls her in a quiz, she grows up at the offender's house. She starts a beginning of a former favorite German lyric the language translating into the terrorizing words of hatred: "Thou't like unto a flower." One University woman has an appropriate war-time system of ejaculations when she is tickled or peeved. It was in the suffragist invasion of the School of Engineering, One of the fair supporters of a candidate in Congress that he rushed up to an innocent engineer. Qquhe test: "Have you bought your Jayhawker?" Engineer: "Yeh." She again: "Have you voted?" Innocence once more: "What! Are you in the beauty contest?" The fair supporter turned away and asked the next engineer. Osage City Publisher Gives Hints to Students Journalism Classes Hear How To Get News, and Advertising Scientists on Campus For 50th Anniversary Of State Organization H. C. Sticher, editor of the Osage City Free Press, spoke to classes in Journalism this morning. Mr. Sticher brought with him copies of a special edition of his paper published Thursday covering Baby Bonds and Thrift Stamps. He made the special edition possible by getting local merchants to run advertisements under the war-captions. Out of ninety-six columns in the paper, seventy-three were devoted to patriotic advertisements. Mr. Sticher says it is possible to convince any one of the advantages of advertising if the proposition is just put up to him in the right way. Mr. Sticher spoke to the Newspaper i. class on 'the best methods of getting news for a weekly paper', to the class in Newspaper II. on "the Suppression of News," and to the class in Problems and Policies on "Ways of conducting a campaign in newspapers." All of these talks were informal. Mrs. Sticher accompanied her husband. They are the guests of the Rev, and Mrs. Frank Jennings of the First Baptist Church.

Visitors From Other States Represent Kindred Organizations Doctor Williston Speaker Annual Academy Dinner to Be Held Tonight—Papers to Be Read Saturday With members here from all parts of Kansas, and with fraternal delegates present from similar societies in other states, the Kansas Academy of Science today began the celebration of its semi-centennial. Dr. S. W willison formerly a member of the University of Kansas faculty, graduated from the University of Kansas as the chief speaker and there will be other papers of importance by men, experts in their several lines of endeavor. The meetings which are being held in Snow Hall, began this morning with a business session. The semicentennial exercises occupied the earlier part of the afternoon session, when President Frank U. G. Agrelius talked on "A Half Century of Bacteriology." In a symposium of fifty years of scientific development in Kansas, W. A. Harshbarger talked on the history of the Academy of Science; L. C. Wooster on botany, E. Chemistry, Erasmus Haworth on geology and pathology, W. J. Baumgartner on zoology, J. W. McWharf on the early history of medicine and L. E. Sayre on the early history of pharmaceutical and medical chemistry. The annual Academy dinner will be held at 6 o'clock tonight, with the event being free. The principal address of the afternoon was given by Dr. Williston, who spoke on "The Growth of Science During the Last Half Century." Saturday sessions will be devoted to business and to the reading of technical papers by members. Dr. H. v. W. Shulte, from the Medical College Creighton University represents the New York Academy of Science. Also present is Prof. Raymond Poal, University of Nebraska, who represents the Torrey Botanical Club, Prof. T. E. McKinney from the University of South Dakota represents the South Dakota Academy. Surgeon-General Wants Women Bacteriologists Women Will Serve in Hospitals Located In Cities But Not Camps According to a letter received by Lucile Collins of the department of bacteriology from Colonel Russel of the surgeon-general's office, through the Council of National Defense, there is a governmental need for women trained in bacteriological work to act as technicians. These women will serve in the army hospitals located in large cities or summer hotels but not in camps, and will be known as medical aids or as laboratory technicians under military control directly responsible to Colonel Ruzel. It is not necessary for the women to have an M. D. or a Ph.D. degree, but it is important that they should be thoroughly familiar with bacteriolike technique. When the women are stationed at a hospital affording nurses the salary will be the rate of $720 a year with board and lodging and a certain amount of laundry; otherwise the arrangement will be through the Civil Service with a salary of $1200 a year but no allowances. Women who are interested in the work should write to Richard M. Pearce, Chairman, Division of Medicine and Related Sciences, giving a brief summary of their training, a statement concerning the time of post graduation from some bacteriologist with whom they have worked. Miss Collin's name has been submitted to Mr. Pearce, and the letter was written, with a view to asking her to be called by the Surgeon-general's office.

FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1918 DELIVER AND BE DELIVERED Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? The corporation, commig west to grow up yith the country, has arrived at K. U. this week. The Senior Engineer's Voting Trust, which is essentially the amalgamated strength of oil space used in the Jayhawkter to portrait countenances engineering; in fraternity, society, or otherwise, has organized with the avowed intention of securing a monopoly on beauty selection. Already this corporation, controlling perhaps twenty thousand votes, has forced the would be "Kansas Girls" to appear in review before them. Members of the organization appeared on the campus Thursday propelling tags bearing this appeal, "Get on the Band Wagon—Senior Engineers' Voting Trust." The trust will not cast it's votes until the eleventh hour. The twenty thousand votes at stake will make a decisive victory for the favored contestant, but the trust spirit is diametrically opposite the spirit of the contest. There should be an absolutely fair field and no favor. Trusts do not grow in fair fields, and it is against their nature to play fifty-fifty. This is nothing more nor less than a combination in restraint of competition; a wholesale delivery by a ward boss of an unintelligently pooled electorate who has been led to yield up their individual measures of power by skilful manipulating on the part of the few, and who are blinded by the dazzling novelty of an engineer's trust and its tremendous power. There are no mitigating degrees of breaking and entering and larceny. There is no gentler word than common thief for the man who commits the crime. Nerve defined -Knitting on pink wool at a U. S. Floor lecture. THE MUCKER If any college students have the idea that their peculiar place in the social scheme privileges them to make depredations and call them escapades, to break locks and steal and call it amusing mischief, it is about time they enlarged their perspective, studied the statutes of Kansas, and felt the punitive power of both those statutes and the ethics of ordinary decent people. The gutter snipe goes to the police station and gets mugged and jugged for his sneak-thief tricks. If the man who stole fifty dollars worth of photography from Spooner Hall Wednesday night were mugged there would be a revelation. He would look as low and cheap and swishin as the vlest mucker ever hauled in. He would look depraved, perverted—unsafe to be among other people, necessarily to be restrained and put away from society both for society's good and his. He would crawl and whine and snivle when he saw what was coming to him. A mucker. That's the word. That man would steal the name plate from his mother's coffin for the sake of the silver in it. MAKING A RECORD Some records ought to be broken. For instance, the submarine toll, the tenure of office of some senators, and the death rate. More to immediate concerns, the habit of Missouri of beating up University of Kansas track teams. Tonight the Jayhawkers go into the annual classic in Convention Hall with thirteen final scores out of fourteen chalked up against the University of Kansas. Kansas won the meet by one point in 1913. Since then Kansas has lost only when the Tigers nosed out a victory in the relay—the final event—with the exception of the year 1914. This effort consistently put up in spite of defeats speaks well of the strenuous effort the Jayhawker team has made to win the meet. Two years ago, Kansas seemed to have the pendulum swing, but again the meet had to be decided by the fateful relay and it took the final runner to decide this event. When Rockey and Pittam crossed the line, the Kansas runner was so close behind Pittam that light could not be seen between the two straining runners. This finish is typical of the closeness of the events in Missouri-Kansas meets. The kind of men such efforts have made are found in the army and navy today. The American spirit which calls for a winning team has developed these men so that they are now standing the test of war. This same spirit which made a winning team in college now belongs to the army and navy and is making these two defenses of the nation what they are to day. The generous rivalry of these yearly track meets makes the sport keener in all of its phases. It matches muscle against muscle and skill against skill. These younger athletes tonight stand for the University of Kansas. They are chosen champions. In this way youth builds manhood and responsibility. Men thus made are coming to the front now that the guns have begun to shoot. We are young—but we are learning in this wholesome manner what it is to be whole men. How an American college athlete showed what this training means is told in the following dispatch from France: "One American captain rallied men with rifles and machine guns and went through the American wire entanglements into No Man's Land and there waited for the enemy, whom he expected to be driven out by his comrades in the trenches. He was right, for soon groups of the enemy started back through the wire entanglements. The Americans poured in a deadly fire, but unfortunately the captain was killed in the fight." The press dispatch ends: "He was last seen alive kneeling beside a spitting machine gun and blazing away with his automatic pistol." This is the last page of the life of Harold Eadie, Dartmouth college junior outfielder of the college baseball team and quarterback of the football eleven. He was the sort of athlete against whom opposing players liked to compete. He always fought to the last second of play. Already there is one regular from last year's track team from the University of Kansas in France serving with the Americans. Others are on their way and many other are in training to go across. Our heroes they shall always be. Athletics have developed them in such a manner that they know how best to serve their country, which means he is the younger men in college are getting ready for "over there." A little healthy hero worship won't do any harm. It will do him who feels it, the good he needs in this hour. For Rent For Sale Found Help Wanted Help Wanted CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS Telephone K.

The parts of the characters will be taken by Robert Robertson, Horace Chandler, John D. Shreve, Craig Kennedy, Howard Morgan, Harry Robinson, Edwin Patton, Helen Clem, Eva Hangen, Emma Mine Ruminger, John Kreek. There is still one male and one female character to be decided upon. There was much competition for the characters in the cast, especially among the women. Most of the men have had dramatic experience before. The first rehearsal will be held Tuesday night in Green Hall. Beginning, then the cast will work regularly under the coaching of Pro. Arl. Murray of the department or public until the play is presented in April. Byron Ashley, c21, and Don Droll, c21, will go down to Kansas City this afternoon to take in the track meet tonight. Marjorie Roby, c'18, and Lillian Giessner, c'19, will spend the weekend at their homes in Topeka. The play "Fifty-Fifty," which won the fifty dollar prize offered by the Dramatic Club, was written by Harold Lytle. It is about student life at K. U. and is a comedy throughout. Although the play is humorous, it is full of dramatic situations.

Eighteen Men Leave To Compete In Meet Against Missouri Only Sixteen Will Enter Events —Athletes Took Light Work-out Thursday Five Veterans With M. U. Dopesters Believe Decision Will Rest on Result of Mile Relay Kansas ill be represented by sixteen athletes in the Missouri-Kansas meet tonight in Convention Hall, Kansas City. Eighteen men will make the trip but only sixteen will actually compete. Yesterday most of the athletes took only light workouts or rested entirely. All of the men are in good trim with the possible exception of Ralph Rodkey, who is still in poor shape because of an injury to his leg received nearly a month ago. Both the University of Missouri and University of Kansas supporters are claiming the meet by a margin of a few points and it is generally believed that the relay, the last event on the program, will decide the annual meet. Both teams have new men but Kansas probably will suffer most from this cause because only two old men are back for the K. U. team. The Tigers have five letter men back in school. Only Rice, in the high jump, and Murphy, in the half, are old athletes back on the Kansas squad. It is possible that Davison will run the half mile instead of the quarter. He did some fine running for time in this event in the tryouts and showed poorly in the quarter-mile run. Simonds may be entered in the hurdles instead of Welty or Hobart, who have been running these two events thus far for the Varsity. Liggett is a possibility in the shot put that may spoil Tiger hopes in this event. However, he has not been tossing the weight as far in practice as Haddock, the other K. U. entry. Brown will run his first Varsity race in the two mile run with Hanna. Buffington will not be taken on the trip. Both of these men finished close together in the try-outs this week. The K. U. band and several hun- You can't buy a Jayhawker Next Week>Adv. dire rooters from the University are expected to go to Kansas City tonight to support the Crimson and the Blue in Convention Hall. The team left this afternoon at 2 o'clock. The meet will start at 7:30 o'clock. The Kansas rooting section will be on the west side of the hall. Nearly 5,000 people are expected at the meet this year. The men taken to the meet are Russell, Murphy, Shreve, Lobcau, Haddock, Simonds, Welty, Hobart, Liggett, Howard, Rice, R. Rodkey, Hunt, Davison, Dewall, Coffey, Hanna, and Brown. Kansas will endeavor to break Missouri's string of four successive victories tomorrow night in the dual meet in Convention Hall, Kansas City. In fourteen meets since 1904, the Tiger runners have taken thirteen singles and Jakeyhawk won victory same in 1918, when Kansas by a 43-42 score. Missouri, with Pittam, Scholz, Sylvester and Berry back, has the advantage of veterans as the Jayhawkers have only Rice and Murphy in the high jump, half mile and relay. Bob Simpson, who won the meet for the Tigers in 1916 with fifteen points and again in 1917 with thirteen points, will be missing tomorrow right and Hobart of Kansas may give Scholz and Sylvester a bacon in hurdles, which have generally been the weak spots in the Jayhawker team.

Basket Ball Tourney To be Held in Gym Friday and Saturday Eighteen Teams Have Beer Entered From High Schools Over State Big Entry List Expected NUMBER 111 Y. W. C. A. and Big Sisters To Take Care of Girls Who Thus far eighteen teams have entered the State High School basketball tournament to be held in Robinson Gymnasium next Friday and Saturday and entry lists are being received at Manager W. O. Hamilton's office in every mail. Manager Hamilton expects to receive entries until 10 o'clock Friday morning, when he said that he expected the number of entries would be as large as that of last year. The high schools at Lawrence, Linwood, Atchison, Leavenworth, Newton, Arkansas City, Winfield, Solomon, Larned, Lacneyy, Marion, Turon, Eudora, Emporin, Lecompont, Sedan and Macksville have entered boys teams. Marion and Atchison high schools are the only ones who have entered girls' teams thus far, although it is certain that they will compete before Friday. The boys' entry list contains a number of congressional district champions and the competition promised to be keen. Manager Hamilton is busy making plans for the accommodation of the high school students who will be the guests of the University Friday and Saturday. As usual, the fraternities and sororites will entertain a large group of students, and thus have also volunteered to help take care of the visitors. The tournament will begin at 10 o'clock Friday morning ad will continue until the final game is finished Saturday night. "Red" Brown of Kansas City and "Phog" Allen, Athletic Director at the Warensberg Normal School, will referee the boys' games, which will be played on the cross courts on the main floor of the gymnasium. The new athletic society, the Olympus, will meet the boys at the trains and show them over the campus, while the organization of Big Sisters and the Y. W. C. A., will cooperate with Manager Hamilton and Miss Hazel Pratt of the Department of Physical Education in entertaining the girls. Over Two Hundred Students Reported As Missing Classes In Gym Students Must Make Up Cuts In Physical Training Notices have been sent out by the department of physical education to all those students who are behind in their physical training work. Over two hundred persons have been sent notices. At least half of these were women students. These students will be reported to the dean for withdrawal of credit in all classes unless the student makes satisfactory adjustment with the department within three days. One unexcused absence is allowed every two weeks. It has been found that some students think five absences a month are still permissible. "Opportunity for making up cuts will be given the women on Friday afternoons at 4:00 o'clock and will be given the women on work," Mia Bertha Mix announced. In discussing this make-up work, Misa Mix said that so far there were no women who had cut so frequently their hair. So she made it up by the end of the semester. Banquet Committees Meet A joint meeting of the different committees on the Senior Alumni Banquet is to be called for within the next few days to make a final decision on holding the banquet this year. The exact date of this meeting has not been set. The County Club Union will meet Tuesday night at seven o'clock. Women, especially, are urged to be present as the main purpose of the meeting is the organization of the Kansas University Women's Land Army and a discussion of plans for the summer. Senior Women In Lead In Red Cross at K. U UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 18, 1918. With a total of 620 hours pledged for the folding of gauze for the Red Cross, the surgical dressing campaign, which was conducted among the women of the University last week, has closed. The seniors, with 206 hours headed the list, and the sophomores came in second with 189 hours. The Juniors pledged 120 hours and the freshmen had pledged 104 hours. During the campaign about fourteen hundred compresses were made; an increase of nearly five hundred over the previous week. Since the Red Crown was defeated, the Rangers U, J, U and a half weeks ago, 3695 compresses have been made. The War Here and Over There War Thought For Today You may have noticed they haven't assigned many women to the making of four-minute speeches. We can imagine a women beset by no greater predicament—Jay House. The casualty list of Saturday was the longest yet sent from France, containing over one hundred names. Henry J. Allen now in France, has been placed in charge of the Home Communication Department of the Red Cross. Ohio troops of the Rainbow Division have occupied two kilometers of German trenches on the Luneville front. The United States now has about 2,400,000 tons of ocean shipping. It is estimated that at least 4,500,000 tons more will be built this year. Congress has passed the Daylight Saving Bill, the plan being to set all clocks in the United States forward an hour at 2 a. m., on the last Sunday in March. The food situation in Switzerland is becoming serious on account of the presence of 26,000 interned soldiers and 7,000 relatives who are visiting them. The French repulsed heavy German attacks yesterday and advanced 800 meters on a front of 1400 meters. The American sector has been undergoing a heavy bombardment. Figures laid before the IBUse military committee show that the United States will have sufficient airplanes in France by July to fully protect the American trenches. If the public continues to send useless and unnecessary articles to the soldiers in France, the post office department threats to limit the amount of mail sent over. In Great Britain 90 per cent of the plants engaged in mawing munitions are under the control of organized labor. Here only 10 per cent of the plants are so controlled. It is officially announced that President Wilson will soon issue a forceful war message, making clear the position of the United States with regard to Japanese intervention in Siberia and clearing up other matters of importance. In spite of President Wilson's message promising aid to Russia, the Council of Soviets has ratified the German peace treaty by a large majority. Leon Trotsky, who recently resigned the position of foreign minister, has been appointed minister of war. The United States is still awaiting a reply from Holland on the question of allowing the Allies to use her vessels. It is expected that Holland will accept the Allies' terms and probably make concessions to German also. Capt. Howard Wyceff, who was graduated from the School of Law in 1912, was aboard the transport, Tuscania, but escaped drowning and perished. He received a letter received recently by Mrs. Wyceff who is now in Chicago. Capt. Wycoff, F12, Saved From Tuscania Disaster Captain Wycoff, following his graduation, practiced law in Chicago. Both he and Thomas Gowenlock, '199, received captaincies at the Camp Sheridan training school last summer. Gowenlock is now at Camp Funston. Kansas Loses to Tigers In Kansas City Meet By Score of 62 to 23 Kansas Team Had Only Two Kansas lost to Missouri in the annual indoor track meet in Convention Hall at Kansas City Friday night by 62 to 23. The Tigers with five men from last year's team were too much for the younger Kansas队 headed by only two veterans, Rice and Murphy. Rice captured individual K-U, winning the only Kansas first by a high jump of 6 feet % inches. Kansas Team Had Only TW Veterans, Rice and Murphy; Missouri Had Five Haddock won two seconds, placing in the shot put and the 50-yard dash. Clift, a K, U. freshman, won first place in the open 440-yard dash and Bradley, another freshman, took second in the open 50-yard dash. Scholz of Missouri won individual honors for the meet by equalling the Convention Hall record of 54 seconds in the 50-yard dash, finishing just a stride ahead of Haddock. Scholz also equaled Bob Simpson's 1916 record of 5-4.5 seconds in the 50-yard low hardles. Sylvester of M. U., a cousin of Bob Simpson, was instrumental point credit. He barely Wetley in the 50-yard high hurdles, making the distance in 6-4.5 second. 50-yard dash—Won by Scholz, M. U.; Haddock, K. U., second. Time, 5 1-5 seconds. Summary: 1-mile run—Won by banks.

Secretary Will Supervise Relief Work For American Prisoners Con Hoffman, who was University Y. M. C. A. secretary here in 1913-14, and who left in September, 1915, to do relief work in German prison camps, is still in Germany. Before the United States entered the war, Hoffman was allowed to visit the prison camps in person, but now all his work is done through ten assistant secretaries. These men are from the neutral nations, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Switzerland. Hoffman is the only American secretary left in Germany. Although his activities in the camps are restricted, he was permitted to attend a conference in Stockholm last May, and to go to Geneva, Switzerland, in September. He is free to come home if he desires. The Second Chamber Musical Recital at the University Club was given Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock, Prof. Carl Preyer played several of his own piano compositions and Miss Leah Stewart sang several songs accompanied by Prof. Frank E. Kendrick on the violin and Miss Mary Gossard on the piano. A large crowd of university people attended the concert. It is important that Hoffman remain in Germany now, to aid American prisoners in German camps. He writes that it is becoming more difficult to supply wants, not because of lack of funds, but for lack of food and transportation facilities. Hoffman hopes to obtain permission to get supplies from this country for the prisoners, but it is hardly probable that such permission will be granted by Germany. Recital At University Club Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman Leaves Little Argument For Why of Religion Church Services in Lawrence Were Suspended For Meeting In Gymnasium Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, pmoderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church spend yesterday in Lawrence, and last night spoke in Robinson gymnastium on the subject, "What's the Use of Religion?" No other church services were held in Lawrence. The theme was suggested to the speaker, as he explained, by a student of Edinburgh University, Scotland. Although it came in rather a sneering manner, Dr. Chapman's emphasis on the word, "what," left no room for his own bells in London which he said is as important nai light to the eye. TRULY A PRIVILEGE Doctor Chapman said that it is truly a wonderful privilege to be living in a time when changes are being accomplished so rapidly. He said that the man who touches a student's life, reises an ideal, and helps impart the strength to reach it has a most wonderful opportunity. The words of President Wilson were quoted as he said, "the greatest thing the church can do in this war, is to keep at the flood-tide of spiritual power." A large per cent of the energy required to keep our fighting forces in good order must be given by the government M. C. A., and kind organizations. DR. R. C. HUGHES TALKED Dr. R. C. Hughes, secretary of University work for the Presbyterian board of missions, who has often before visited the University, was present and gave a ten minute talk. Doctor Chapman and Doctor Hughes will visit the Kansas State Agricultural College, University of Nebraska, University of Colorado and many other large schools in the next few weeks. I GIVE HANK TO STUDENTS Doctor Chapman was elected moderator of the Assembly in May of last year and was requested by the National Service Commission to cancel all of his engagements as far as possible in order that his time might be given to the student meetings. A number of theological schools will also be included in the tour. - TO GIVE TIME TO STUDENTS Classes Will Begin Hour Earlier Under Daylight Saving Plan Early Morning Students Compelled To Climb Hill at 7 o'clock 7 o'Clock "The change will not make any great difference in the University," said Chancellor Strong, "as we will eat breakfast one hour earlier according to suntime, dinner will come once a week." The hill will be over by 3 or 4 o'clock according to the present time schedule. "To make this order nationally observed it is necessary for every person and institution to comply with the government's request. The railways will suffer the change more than anything else but they have planned to make the change with little inconvenience. Last year our allies in the war found this a necessary war measure to save some of the time wasted daily during the days of longer daylight. The plan was very successful and right now it will be of great value to our country to allow a few hours work in the gardens late in the afternoon." Classes one hour earlier in the day, this will be K. U's bit to help in the national daylight saving observances if the president signs the Calder Bill today to turn the clock up one hour for seven months beginning April 1. Chancellor Frank Strong said this morning that the University will not lag behind on a patriotic measure of the schools of the University will be called soon to arrange any changes in the schools that may be necessary. Students having 8 o'clock classes will have to climb the hill at 7 o'clock. There should be very little confusion if every person remembers to turn his watch up one hour at the appointed hour on Easter Sunday. Phi Beta Kappa To Hold Election of New Members The annual election of members will be held at the meeting of the Phi Beta Kappa honorary fraternity council this afternoon at four o'clock. The council is made up of faculty members who are Phi Beta Kappas. The number of members to be elected is not known. Not more than 6 per cent of the number in the senior class can be chosen according to the rules of the council. For the last few years not even this time the president were chosen early in the fall and they will count in the number to be elected. Some confusion was caused in looking up the grades of the seniors by the change in the adoption of a new grading system. The election was delayed while this matter was being decided and a schedule of the comparative value of the grades was being arranged. Plain Tales From The Hill Would you know the meaning of the black mass of students on the steps of Administration Building during the interval between classes? It is just a fraternity meeting, enjoying the sun of blamy spring instead of using the chapter house. A student who wished to go down town was waiting on the Hill for a street car Saturday noon. He saw one coming by the Repair Shops, and ran down the hill back of the Medic store. Then he stood down below. He beat the car there, and stood by for it. It passed him up, and by also, A K. U. co-ed left the University for her home Sunday night. Her friends went with her to the station to give her a rousing send-off. Included in these friends was the best one. This best one grabbed her suitcase and carried it into the Pullman with her. The porter thought the best one was traveling, too, and locked the door. It took some efficient pounding to get the door opened. As the train pulled out immediately, the porter was not incapacitated for further service. "Gee, I thought it would wait half an hour for a passenger," he said as he watched it drawing away from him. Then, collecting his wits and ears, he moved force after the enco caught it, and took his ride to the city district. In a psychology quiz section, Mrs. P. V. Faragher was discussing the nature of different sensations. "Have any of you ever experienced a pure sensation?" she asked. "No? Well, I have. The other day I was in the Chemistry Building and Professor Cady told me to taste something on the end of his tongue. Well, I sure got a pure, simple sensation." And the sensation never reached her that she had transferred her property to Professor Cady. Two Sigma Kappas, having been locked in a room by fate, growing weary of confinement and remembering that they had seen glowing movie heroines successfully descend from their windows, tied sheets together and suspended them through their window, after seeing them fall. That took a great deal of nerve, and they rested before finishing the adventure. As they moved to the window, intending to descend, the bed slowly, mysteriously, crept toward the window. Almost petrified with fear, the girls investigated. A climber on the Himallah scaled the improvised rope from below. He was ousted swift as thought. Later as the girls prepared a second tie to escape, they perceived that all the loafers at Brick's were looking for falling stars. In dumb despair they sank back on the bed, hopelessly shut in! "What is a shot gun quiz?" one freshman asked another. "I dumno. One easily killed, 1 guesses," was the answer. K. U. Women to Meet To Organize Land Army That Will Aid Farmers "The campus beautiful? Hm—yes." The professor smiled symilly. "For instance, these "You'll be sorry if you don't and 'You'll be glad if you do' signs with the glue oozing through? Oh, I sat down! I thought of Don Davis, too—I have forgotten him since, however." The Commerce Club will meet Tuesday evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Kappa Sigma house. F. A. Davis, instructor in department of economics, will talk on "The Economic Conditions in Latin America." American College Women To Relieve Farm Help Shortage, New Movement Plans Meeting Tuesday at 7 p. m. Big Eastern Colleges Join In Plan To Provide Patriotic Summer Work The Woman's Land Army of the University of Kansas will enlist the women of the University in Room 110, Fraser Hall, Tuesday at 7 o'clock. A woman from each county represented at the University has been asked to assist in organizing a state movement for the efficient management of women's occupations during the war. It is desired by the committee that every woman in the University show her interest by attending the meeting. Dr. Jla Hyde, who is representing the Women's College Association at K. U., has been asked to present this movement to the women of the University. It is planned that each county form a unit and a state chairman of the Land Army be elected. This chairman will keep the county units in touch with the organizations of like nature of other states. There are more than 100 colleges of this kind. The eastern colleges including Bryn Mawr and Wellesley took up this plan to a certain extent last year and a thorough mobilization of land forces for tilling the soil will be put through this spring. By this plan places will be found where young women may work in good farm homes. Stenographers and clerks, taking their two weeks' vacations, can work on a farm four to six hours a day doing light work, and go home having been paid for a vacation which has put them in good condition physically, and has given them a good time. Many farmers would be gaid accounting to one owner. One ranch owner confided to her that she would be gaid to take the women back and forth to work in her automobile. At the meeting Miss Alice Winston, diss Elise Neuschenschwanger, May brownie Miss Lynn and Doctor charles will talk. "Of course the women must preserve their health above all things" said Doctor Hyde. "We must decide on definite rules and then each county can work out its own problem." Germ Carriers Found In DeSoto Schools Two spinal meningitis germ carriers have been reported by the five students in the department of bacteriology who with Prof. N. P. Sheron began their studies at Stamford, Maine and noses of high andrade school pupils in De Soto. The party of bacteriologists undertook the examinations at the request of F. H. Clark, superintendent of D Soto schools, and Dr. Hatfield, County Health officer. Those who went with Professor Sherwood were' Cornelia Downs, George Terry, M. R. Warden, Charles Haddox, and Hugh Jeter. Assistant Librarian Gets Job As Ordnance Clerk The name of one more K. U. woman has been added to the list of those who have gone into war work. Miss Etta Smith, f.a'14, librarian of the education seminar in Spooner Library, has asked for a leave of absence to go to Washington, April 1, to become index and catalogue clerk in the army ordinance department of the United States Government. During her four years in the University, Miss Smith took an active part in musical and dramatic activities. As the manager of the Senior Play, "Count No Count," in 1914, she was the distinction of being the first woman to play a major role in dramatic production. The appointment to the position in Washington was made upon a recommendation of her library experience. Havinghurst At Vespers Freeman G. Havinghurst, a fellow in the department of sociology last year, new traveling for the student Volunteer Movement, spoke at the Methodist Vesper Services at Myers Hall, Sunday afternoon on "The Challenge of Today for Young People." --- 1 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 18, 1918.

Address all communications to UNIVERSITY GALLY KANSAS LAWRENCE, Kansas Photos. 10:41 L C 25 and 66.

MONDAY, MARCH 18, 1918 Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? TIME AND MORE TIME Day's too full, no time, no time—the Lord will bless a good work and take up its cause—but for finite folks there isn't a moment more to spare! Now it is hard enough to endure the spectacle of the world from even the perspective of heaven today,—let alone carry the additional burden of properly human activities for the good of human beings on a blood-soaked earth. The Lord's time is a long time; He has all eternity. But the sons—and daughters—of men have to do all that they are going to do in a mighty short time. They have no right to lay a time job on the labor schedule of heaven. They have no right to commit a personal responsibility for a day's work or any part thereof to the beneficiency of the Omnipotence. Omnipotence has other things to deal with. The works of men are the works of men and by men they must be done. The day is full on Oread way out in Kansas. Mortals think themselves oppressed with toil. Mortals should think less and toil more. There should not be more than one blast of the trumpet to call workers to a new task. Less important items of the day should be lopped off and readjustment should be made immediately. The horn should not be blown so long that its sound becomes monotonous, that ears become accustomed to its continuous wailing note. There was a call to surgical dressing work weeks and weeks ago. A handful answered it. It is still calling. The same loyal few are still answering. The rest are thinking of a hard, hard day, and trusting to the Doer of All Things Good and Right to take care of His own. It isn't that He won't or can't. Rather it is true that immortal hands don't ply needles and roll bandages, don't make compresses, don't stanch blood. The spirit is given that such things can be done just as the spirit is given that the agony these things relieve can be endured even to death. No one person in the world or in the United States or in Kansas or on Oread is telling the women of this university that they shall go to a place—such as Fraser Hall—at a specified time to do a specified duty—such as make surgical dressings. The story comes from over the sea from the articulate cry of American wounded coming and to come in the hospitals on the American front. Six hundred beds waiting for the mangled, broken men who have given almost more than life—six hundred beds have beside them in readiness only forty dressings of certain kinds that mean life and death. The hope for more is slendor. The need for more is too clear. The few people who were making dresses at the University of Kansas responded to the urgency and raised the number of compresses from 200 the first week to 500 in one day—last Friday alone. Who are doing the work? Uper classmen mostly, women who have to give most of their time to student activities this year, who naturally have far less spare time than freshmen sophomores. The work is swift. Half an hour's work will produce enough to make the time vitally worth while. House mothers are heading squads that come in intensive relays. Just a moment out of the day—another precious unit of time forced in—for old K. U. must make the 8,000 dressings set as a goal. There will always be room for another any time of the working day in the surgical dressings room over in Fraser Hall. Of course the day is crammed full already. But someone has written a thousand times that a day is a century long in France and that he who lives through it is a century tired. Let the demands multiply here. Strike off the new schedule with the needs of the new day. Put your own marching orders to yourself in due proportion to duties you lay upon yourself. And don't shift one to the charisty and pit of heaven. There's a dingy, mud-walled, dripping dugout behind a front-line trench. And it is not so far from the surgical dressings room in old Fraser Hall to that dressing station on the line. There is a place you know is yours,—a duty you must fulfill. THEY TOO MUST SERVE Attention of University women is called to another branch of the government service in which they may be useful. The bacteriology department has received a letter from the Surgeon-General's office through the Council of National Defense explaining the need for women of training in bacteriological work to act as military aids or laboratory technicians. This branch of the service is under direct military control. Women who are employed will serve in army hospitals in large cities, but not in camps. M. D. degrees are not required, but a thorough knowledge of laboratory technique is necessary. Here is an opportunity for the K. U. woman of science who has not made other plans for next winter to forsake the lavender tatting for Cousin Betty's handkerchief and do something worth while for Uncle Sam. This is a chance for genuine service; service which is just as essential to the ultimate success of our cause as the work of the aviator or the surgeon. The field of greatest efficiency for every woman lies within the scope of her training and ability. Think it over and file your application. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT When the girl next to him thanked him for passing the plate at the club he started in thanking her for every little article that was passed to him. He thought thanks were "high brow stuff," but he appeared ungentlemanly in the eyes of those at the table. Pa and Mike were in a front-line trench which had been under continuous bombardment fifteen hours. Suddenly Mike jumped up, grabbed Pat and shouted above the shriek of the bursting shells: "So this is the little girl, eh??" Mark said to her as she displayed her children. "And this sturdy little urchin in the bib belongs, I suppose, to the contrary sex." Mark Twain, so the story goes, was walking on Hannibal Street when he met a woman with her youthful family. HE WAS SHOCK-PROOF "For heaven's sake, Pat, scare me! I've got the hiccoughs."—New York World. "Yassah," the woman replied; "yassah, dat's a girl, too."—Christian Register.

Take care when you roast some one to see that it is not rare or too well done. "For one man who wishes to be uplifted there are a million who wish to be entertained." A student may be a regular Charlie Chaplin in spirit, but he should strictly obey the bone-dry, prohibition, and anti-saloon laws, and not let his spirits get the better of him while he is in the company of sober persons. The old codger who sent the famous telegram that reads like the conjugation of a Latin verb would have wagged a different tale had he been waylaid by an effusive, blue-eyed K. U. maid soliciting votes for "Our Kansas Girls" contest. In fact, his last clause would have read, "I was conquered." A student we know is like a person caught in a revolving door. He goes to class, listening to lecture after lecture. But when he winds around one side, he immediately comes back on the other. And the trouble is he doesn't get outside his orbit, either to the inside where his logical destination is, or to the outside by the door through which he came.

Board Defeated Twelftl District Team In Hard Game Friday The Brush League won from Kappa Phi by a score of 27-2. Marie Brown, running center for Kappa Phi, was the star of the team and scored the two points for her team. The other members of the team are unexperienced in playing the Brush League and Nolle Leibengood, guard played a fast game and had excellent support from the other members of the team. The W. A. A. Board defeated the Twelfth District in a close game by a 34-24 score in the first series of the Intramural basketball tournament Friday afternoon. Grace Olson and Katherine Orelup, forwardes for the Twelfth District, played a fast game but were unable to gain the lead over the more ex- perienced players of the W. A. A. Board. Dorothy Tucker runner center for the Twelfth District, Marcia Morin guard, intercepted the passes of the Twelfth District and prevented them from running up a larger score. Sigma Kappa lost to Gamma Phi Beta, 2-0, by forfeit and Chi Omega forfeited to Patterson Club. 2-0. The second series will be played this afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium at 4:15 with these teams contesting: Kappa Alpha Theta vs. Alpha Xi Delta, Faculty vs. Y. W. C., Brush Lengue vs Gamma Phi Beta, W. A. A. vs. Patterson Club. SPORT BEAMS Another District high school basketball championship will be decided at Horton Friday and Saturday when the teams of the First District compete. Nelson Metcalf, present director of athletics at Columbia University, has been appointed athletic director at Oberlin college. He will begin his duties in the fall. Harry McHenry, captain of the Drake track team in 1914 and also a football player of note, is the first Drake man to be killed in France. He was captain of an Iowa infantry company. The Baker University quintet easily defeated Coach Bill Hargiss' Emporia Normal team Tuesday by a score of 35-19. Baseball prospects are discouraging at the University of Michigan. Coach Lungren of the Wolverines has few veterans and only a small number of new men have turned out for practice. Northwestern University will be represented on the diamond by an informal team this year. The purple nine will probably play the camp teams and a few of the nearby colleges. Eight basketball teams will play for the Iowa state high school basketball championship at a tournament held by the University of Iowa Friday and Saturday. An invitation basketball tournament is being held at Wichita today and tomorrow and practically every team in the Arkansas Valley is entered. Thirty candidates have turned out in response to the first call for outdoor baseball practice at the University of Indiana. Michigan made a desperate effort to win at least one basketball game this season last Saturday but the final score was 34-27 with Ohio State on the long end. This is the first year Michigan has been represented on the basketball court for some time, and all the material was inexperienced. Frank Mandeville, football star last fall, has received his call to report at the aviation training school at Urbana, Ill., and will leave next week. Mandy was accepted for service some time ago. In the basketball game Tuesday evening between Faculty and Alemannia, Hazel Pratt, jumping center for the faculty, scored ten out of fifteen points for her team by tossing five field goals. The Jayhawkers have withdrawn from the basketball tournament held in Kansas City today and tomorrow. The members of the team have not been in training since the last Kansas Aggie series, and as they had already missed many days of school while on trips, they decided to withdraw from the tournament. The Ames Aggies won a big indoor track meet Saturday in which Ames, the University of Iowa, Drake and Grinnell competed. Ames won with 42 points, Grinnell was second with 25. Iowa University had 17 and Drake was last with 13. The Wichita reserves, a team of former high school stars, won the first annual Y. M. C. A. tournament staged at Wichita, Friday and Saturday. Wichita high school won the championship of its class but lost to the Reserves by a 37-36 score. The Ottawa University quintet, champions of the Kansas State Conference, will play the undefeated Kansas City Schmelzers tonight at Ottawa in a Red Cross benefit game. Joie Ray, world's champion runner, equalled the world's record in the 1000 yard race at New York Saturday, when he covered the distance in 2 minutes and 14 seconds. Johnny Overton of Yale had previously held the record. Ray ran the 1000 yard race at the K. C. A. C. meet in 2 minutes and 18 2-5 seconds. Class Visits Prison In First-Hand Study Thirty-five See State And Federal Institutions At Here Home In two prisons and out again in one day, in the workshop though, not down in the mine, through cell corridors to kitchens and back to the businessline wardsen office for lectures by both prison officers and prisoners themselves, comprises the interesting record Thursday of thirty-five students in a course on Remedial and Corrective Agencies who went to the Federal and State prisons in Leavenworth and Lansing yesterday with Professor W. B. Bodenhafer. The party arrived at the big gates of Leavenworth penitentiary at 10:30 o'clock and Professor Bodenhafer had to negotiate for admittance with a conscientious guard. Kodakhs was left behind. Then the gates swung back only to close behind the visitors. After lunch down-town, the sociological investigators journeyed eight miles south to Lansing and there gained entrance to the state penitentiary without the preliminaries which was made necessary at Leavenworth. Row after row of cells was passed, cells which under modern conditions have light, air, and scrupulous cleanliness. Prisoners were found busy in their workshops where labor was made both a profit and necessary occupation for men in confinement. At night prisoners had opportunity to eat with the prisoners at noon, for the party of visitors was too large. Warden Codding and two trustees conducted the party about the institution. Souvenirs of the trip were found in the shape of leather scraps from the shoe shop and strings of flux from the twine factory. No one other was disposed to access the invitation to descend into the coal mine. The real experience of the day came in the registry office where each visitor left the regulation thumb print, Here's the Best Reference Book Published 847 Mass.

Landscape Gardening Described To Students Pictures Show Value of Trees and Shrubs in Beautify- Landscape gardening was the subject of the lecture given by Prof. W. C. Stevens of the department of botany, before journalism students Wednesday night. The lecture was illustrated with lantern slides, demonstrating how a little craft of the landscape gardener can eradicate blemishes from the cities, and beautify the country. ing Homes Cities in the East need the services of landscape gardeners more than do the cities in the west. "Kansas needs trees to redeem the landscape more than anything else," said Professor Stevens. Landscape gardening was the third subject of the series of lectures to be given before journalism students. These lectures are arranged by Prof. Rice to give his students practical knowledge of newspaper problems. Don't wait—do it now!

Sale of Easter Cards Helps French Orphans Easter cards sold for the benefit of French orphan children is the latest thing in the way of charity giving. 500 of these cards have been sold in the last week at the University. These cards will be put on sale in Fraser Hall on Thursday morning by the local committee of the fatherless children of France. The cards are furnished free of charge to the committee and the entire proceeds will be used for the support of French children whose fathers have been killed in battle. The card is printed from a four color plat and is of quaint and attractive design. It represents three little children in French peasant costume standing before an old board fence against which Easterillies are growing. The price of the card is ten cents. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY A London cable says 38,000 petitions for divorce have been filed in Petrograd. Can't any two persons in Russia agree on anything?—Knoxville Sentinel. The newest device in the German aviation service is underground hangars. The Belgian army has taken over an important sector of the west front formerly held by the French. Governor Whitman of New York has asked for power to draft members of the unorganized state militia for farm service. Paper trousers are now being worn by the men of Germany, and shoe aces made of paper yarn are sold at 5 cents a pair. The war tax of The United States Steel Corporation this year will be nearly a quarter of a billion dollars. Canada's Governor General has barred wine from his dining table, and ins sealed the wine cellars of his residence for the period of the war. The War Department officials have unclosed that Germany's long-expected spring drive will not be carried out. The euromenons will remain on the defensive. A United States court-martial has entrenched a private in the army to even years' imprisonment for mainland hand right to evade military service. The Treasury Department now receives $3,000,000 daily from the sale of Thrift Stamps. This is about one tenth of what the United States spends each day on the war. Prince Lichnowsky, former German Ambassador to London, has written a memorandum criticizing the blundering foreign policy of Germany, saying that this was one of the main causes of the war. Liquor confiscated by the municipal authorities in the state of Washington will not be destroyed. The governor has offered it to the War Department for emergency use. Further details of the German peace treaty with Russia show that Russin will have to pay an indemnity of $4,655,000,000. Premier Lenine kept this secret until the Council of Soviets had ratified the treaty.

At Safety Meeting Head of Mechanical Engineer F. H. Sibley, professor of mechanical engineering is to represent the University of Kansas at the National Safety Conference which is to meet in Chicago Wednesday to further investigate incidents of industrial and public accidents. The activities of the council have been concerned with industrial safety but it is now entering the field of public safety. The safety movement has become a part of the conservation movement. A conference was held in New York March 2, at which a committee of five was appointed to co-operate with universities in teaching how to use safety devices. Albert Whitney, chairman f the National Workmen's Compensation Bureau, said in a letter to Professor Sibley the number of men killed and seriously wounded through industrial accidents each year was about the same as the number killed in three months on the battle-front. This is used to illustrate the pressing need for an awakening to the situation. Professor Sibley said he began this work in Fowler Shops three years ago, but failure to obtain sufficient funds hampered the work. The conference in Chicago will have for its object the same thing as the one held in New York. A similar committee will be appointed to cooperate with the eastern committees, and an effort will be made to initiate the movement in the engineering all universities and technical schools. Chancellor To Appoint Committee of Lawyers Men of Draft to Have Expert Advice About Business Affairs Chancellor Frank Strong, as chairman of the committee on Public Relations of the Kansas State Council of Defense, has been asked to appoint a committee of legal advisors to aid men of draft age in arranging their personal business affairs upon their entrance into the army. This work is a part of the program outlined by the National Council of Defence for each state. There is to be a central Legal Committee in each locality, to work and local committees will be appointed to aid in each locality. Because there are so many men of draft age engaged in large commercial enterprises which must be managed during the absence of the men in military service, the government wishes to have competent law-affairs community to aid them in arranging their employment protected by law from persons who might take advantage of their absence to secure personal gain. The work is sometimes thought to intrude on the work of the Home Service Sections of the Red Cross but the work of that service deals with the men and aid given to the families of men who they go into active military service. Charcellor Strong has made a list of prominent lawyers from all parts of the state and will make his selections of committeemen from this list some time soon. He is waiting for additional information from the Government at present before appointing the committee. The meeting of the committee on rooming houses for women has been postponed to Monday night, March 25 at 7:30; and will be held at the home of the chairman, Mrs. Eustace Brown, 1140 Mississippi. All sororities who have not handed in a copy of the house rules to Mrs. Brown are asked to do Collecting Memorial Fees All contributions for the senior memorial fund are expected by next Thursday, according to Walter Raymond, chairman of the senior memorial committee. Each senior is to give a book at auction before buck a clock that will be placed temporarily in Fraser Chapel, and will later be moved to the chapel of the new Administration Building. rules to Mrs. Brown are asked to do so immediately.

Basketball Entry List Reaches Thirty-Eight Names Still Pouring In Teams For Arkansas Valley League Doped to Show Up Well The entry list in the state high school basketball tournament was increased to thirty-eight teams today, twenty teams having entered since yesterday morning. Manager Hamilton has been receiving entries in every mail and he said this morning that the turnout will probably be as large as that of last year. The entries received since yesterday are: Boys teams - Toppea, Wichita, Kansas City, Argentine, Baldwin, Chanute, Iola, Buhson, McPherson. Williamsburg, Viola and Powhatan Girl's teams: Argentine, Baldwin Burlington, Chanute, Gardner, Herington, Rosedale and Turner. The list includes six teams which have won congressional district championships and this means that the tournament here will be very close. Almost every team in the Arkansas Valley league, one of the classiest high school leagues in the state, will be entered in the tournament and basketball followers will follow closely the competition between Newton, Wichita, Arkansas City and Winfield, Arkansas City. These teams met in the semi-finals last year and are sure to be close to the top again this year. The drawing for the teams will take place this afternoon and all teams which enter later will probably have to rest during the first round of play or take chances on being able to draw an opponent. Manager Hamilton will send to each team entered a complete schedule of the games tonight. "We will have about three hundred eighty high school boys and girls to entertain during the tournament," said W. O. Hamilton, "as thirty-eight teams have been entered and about ten persons in each team. Some of the teams will arrive Thursday night and we must be ready to entertain them at that time. All of the fraternities, clubs and organizations on the Hill which can take in a few of these persons should let the athletic department know who and how many they can accommodate." "If any fraternity, club or students have arranged to accommodate any team or members of teams they should inform me so that we will not make arrangements for the same persons and cause unnecessary confusion. "The University students should try to entertain these people. It will be a big task to take care of all of these high school students, but we can do only if the hill people will cooperate with the athletic department." Botanists To Be Supplied With Specimens—Lilacs To Camouflage Incinerator Draw Vegetable Veil Over "Hill" Background The south slope of the Hill, sometimes known as the University's backyard is to be benefited by a systematically-carried-out scheme of landscape gardening, according to plans now being worked out by Herbert S. Hare of Kansas City, Mo., a landscape architect. Mr. Hare will submit his plan to University authorities this week. It is proposed to plant a botanical garden for the use of students' botany add at the same time so arrange this garden that it will perform all the duties of landscaping the south slope, and making it more beautiful. The plan is to have the plantation as useful as possible in a scientific way, yet to use it to the utmost in hiding the incinerator with clumps of fragrant and beautiful lilacs and other shrubs and trees. The necessary and unsightly heaps of building materials, the coal bunkers and the old frame buildings near the heating plant also are to draw a vegetable veil across their facades, when the lanscaping is perfected. Mr. Hare, who with Prof. W. C. Stevens, head of the department of botany, is planning the landscaping of the campus as a regular lecturer at the University. A war saver is a life saver! Buy War-Savings Stamps! Shipment of Books Sent To Kentucky Community The University has just sent a shipment of books to an isolated community in Knott County, Ky., the state which has sent to the army 30,000 men who could neither read nor write their own names. The illiteracy of the people in this region is caused by their isolation. They are from good English stock, but they do not know how to read and the times and need to be educated. The work of sending books to the people of isolated communities in Kentucky is being carried on in various places over the country. Dr. Ida H. Hyde is in charge of it here, and she will be glad to receive contributions of books, and will forward them. Plain Tales From The Hill The fair co-ed's father had returned from Colorado where he purchased a ranch. He had mentioned the fact that it must be stocked with cattle. "What make will you buy, papa?" she asked. In an instant when the University immigration laws were temporarily shelved, Eliza came. The K. U. Dramatic Club stands sponsor for her literacy, and herders as queen of the comic stuff. There are two reasons for the fact that she comes to stay. The first is that the University's system of underground railway transportation is not fully developed, and the second is that the cool enough for the Kaw to grow can make it sliky across, as per Mrs. Stowe's masterpiece. "SCAT! YOU HORRID MONSTER!" After sitting with her feet on a stool for some time, one suggested to the other, "Why don't you just chase it right out of the room?" This didn't appeal to her roommate, who was studying. If any opposer of co-education has brought forward the argument that it makes the petite feminine masculine-minded, he will change tack after hearing of the two seniors who found a meek and small spider in their room. Neither would kill it. Shifting the hands of the clocks and watches an hour under the daylight saving plan will not terrorize or even ruffle those University men who are taking military drill. They changed the sequence of the entire routine of the day with a tie with dummy hand grenades Monday afternoon. As the spider turned and started toward the footstool, the timid one took heart and actually chased the spider into the hall by pounding on the floor with a shoe and coining "shoe" at the beast at alternate intervals. Lines of men faced each other and tossed the grenades at the opposite lines, as they stood in chalked camouflage trenches. The place a man's grenade lit was indicated to him by the one opposite calling out its position according to the figures on a clock. "Hum. I wonder what o'clock that one struck," mused one of the students. "My husband will have to stay out of the kitchen except when he washes the dishes," a University senior, speaking of her former state of unhappiness, announced today. "Well," returned the one who threw the grenade, "call it five, and we'll be dismissed." Memorial Tablet To Be Designed By Goldsmith K. U. is to have a memorial for University men now in the service. A committee is working on plans for a metal tablet which will probably be placed in Fraser Hall. According to Prof. F. B. Dains of the department of chemistry who with Prof. Goldwin Goldsmith of the School of Engineering has taken part in work for memorial, the tablet will be design- 1. *toilet* will probably be divided into sections, for the navy, the army, the Y. M. C. A., and another section for those men who are not enlisted, but who are doing active government work. Opposite each one of these divisions will be placed the number of men in each group. The tablet will be so arranged that these numbers may be changed from time to time as other men go into the service. The tablet will be cast in the University shops. Mrs. Brown Criticizes Method of Conducting Jayhawk Beauty Race Visit of Contestants To Meeting Without Chaperones Is Scored Help Lonesome Engineers Adviser of Women Proposes Tentative Friendship Club For Marvin Hall Men "Much dissatisfaction has been aroused by the manner in which the Jayhawkber Beauty Contest was conducted this year." Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, said this morning. "The fact that the engineers invited the women in the contest to visit them in their building, unnerved they might cast their votes accordingly they might have a great deal of criticism. This has never been done before in the University. "Never before have I seen University women go out to solicit votes for their own beauty. It has always been done by their friends. While this occurred under the excitement of the moment, I trust this will be the last time such action will occur in the University of Kansas. "The University parties are given so that men of the University may have an opportunity to meet the women in a proper and conventional way. I, as dean of women, am always glad to chapenon such a party. This obviates the necessity of any action which in any way reflects on the high ideals of the University of Kansas." Mrs. Brown is considering organizing a friendship club or some kind of a meeting in which men of the School of Engineering will be given the opportunity to meet University women. If there is any desire among the students for such an organization Mrs. Brown will gladly formulate the plan. Kirksmith Trio Will Finish Concert Course Cellist, Pianist And Soprano To Give Recital Anril 3 A popular program by Karl Kirksmith, 'cellist; Mrs. Allan Taylor, soprano, and Mrs. Gladys Yves Brainard, pianist, will be given in Robinson Gymnasium, April 3 at 8:15 o'clock. Mr. Kirksmith is widely known in Europe and America. He is a member of the New York Philharmonic Society, one of the best orchestras in this country. He was formerly first Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic Symphony Society, and the Czerwynskie String Quartette. Mrs. Brainard, who sang in concert in France, returned before the outbreak of the war. Her program is the result of careful research of the old and modern schools of composition, dating from the Sixteenth Century to the present school of modern music. Mrs. Brainard began her studies with Mr. Chicago. She later went to Europe and studied with Joseph Levyine. Mrs. Allen Taylor of Kansas City, is soloist for two of the leading Kansas City churches and has appeared at many musical concerts in that city. This is the fourth and last number of the University concert course. Buy Portrait of Regent A large picture of Scott Hopkins, of Topeka, a regent of the University for twenty years before the Board of Administration was formed to manage all the state institutions, has been purchased by the University and hung in the office of Chancellor Frank Strong. The work was done by a Topeka artist. It is a life-size portrait in natural colors with a dark background. "Cusin' Tom" s" Verses Out Tom D. Smith, 198, has compiled a book of verse entitled, "Patriotic Poems." Mr. Smith was a sergeant-major of the 22nd Kansas Volunteer Infantry in the War with Spain. He is better known to University graduates and students than Mr. Smith, who played on the University football squad in "87-88-89." Money, saved works day and night for you.

Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? THE GREAT JOKE Unquestionably the most beautiful girl in the University of Kansas was not in the recent contest at all. Furthermore several queens, who by nature's own endowment were entitled to sit with the one hypothetical superlative did not venture near the throne room. But beauties have been given ballots. As as such were a tribute! As if such were either flattery or sincerity! As if any one of the rivals thought of personal charm to win or of anything in particular to be won! Or Orread, hill of hills, where is your sense of humor? You have been as serious as citizens of a city at municipal primary when the chief issue is between blondes and brunettes in a race for mayorality. You have invoked all the powers of political machinery of wily Greek and sudorous Trojan. You have bridged Helleps ponds and dragged wooden horses,—all for the sake of Helen. Not one Helen only have you raised to exaltation but seven others with her. And your Helens did not care. The engineers get their feet wet at the Hellespont. That bridge to victory couldn't hold back a tidal wave. The jockeys who horsed around made so many false starts that they were winded in the first heat. To explain the classic allegory, the sororites which sought to get an emblazoned page in the Jayhawker as a fundamental proposition for next year's rushing worked so feverish toward no real end, no pertinent objective so far as the immediate purpose of the so-called beauty contest goes—those frantic sororities wore themselves out on nothing for nothing. The beauty contest is an annual joke, a profitable joke. It sells the best student year-book in the country. Any other assigned purpose is quite superfluous. There is the biggest reason yet for this. The most beautiful girl in the University of Kansas is not a Heilen; she knows no Greek. She is undoubtedly a Barbarian. And that settles the whole matter. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He had a car. The two couples were trying to get to a party on time and it was already late. He asked them to ride with him to the party. He was in a hurry to get home, but he was considerate enough to think about the two couples of people whom he had never seen before. They appreciated it although it was a little thing.

Vassar is now added to the list of women's colleges which will send a reconstructed unit to France. A Smith unit is already abroad and Wellesley's will probably be there sometime in the spring. Nearly one thousand Dartmouth men, undergraduates and alumni, are now in the military service of their country. Six of them have already given their lives for the allied cause. As is entirely natural, the class of 1917 is the best represented on the college's roll of honor. It has 112 members in active service. The "Housewives' Consulting League" has recently been organized by the home economics department of the University of Washington for the benefit of the women of that city. Hoover recipes and governmental regulations are the things that the league is particularly desirous that the women should know. France Needs Our Clocks Bordeaux, France.—France wants American-made alarm clocks. A Bordeaux business house has just closed a deal with a large manufacturing establishment in the United States for a trial order of alarm clocks, the total purchase amounting to 250,000 francs (848,250 at normal exchange). This order was placed through the American vice-consul at Bordeaux and is the first of its kind from the vicinity where trade has long been monopolized by manufacturers of other nationalities. Students leaving the University of Illinois in the middle of the semester, or farm work, will be permitted to take examinations for half credit. The approval for withdrawal must be secured from the dean of the college and the dean of men. RedCrossNews We sometimes feel that since there is not a continuous drive that we may relax occasionally.

Winners The fastest game of the women's Intramural tournament was played Monday when the Alpha Xi Deltas won against the Kappa Alpha Thetas by a score of 34 to 26 in the second round of games. four of the stars of the Interclass tournament were playing with the Alpha Xi's and were the main factors in leading their team to victory. Sarah Trant did her usual splendid work at the basket while Ruth Bott- tomly starred as guard. The Ruth Trant-Helen Barnett combination proved a successful check on the well- organized, hard-fighting Thetas. Margaret Hodder had coached the Kappa Alpha Theta team into fine shape. Theo Thompson threw goals as if she had been playing all season, and Helen Robinson stood out with fine guard work. Margaret Hodder, center, covered the floor well, and the other players supported her with fast The W. A. A. Board played against the Patterson Club and won by a score of 41 to 8. It was not as one-sided as the score would indicate. Dorothy Queerfelt's attempts at the basket were almost always successful and Dorothy Tucker did astonishing work at forward. Ruth Endacett played up well against Helen Olsen, and Doris Drought was always where the ball was. Carol Martin also played one of her best games. The Brush League won the game with the Gamma Phi Betas by a score of 24 to 11. The former team were on their toes and well organized while the Gamma Phis were handicapped by the presence of their forward Earline Allen. Y. W. C. A. beat the Faculty by a score of 45 to 10, Joyce Brown starred as forward for the Y. W. C. A., and Helen Wasson also played a good game. The next round of games will be played Tuesday at 7:15 o'clock. The Alpha Xi Delta will compete against the Y. W. C. A. team and the Brush league will play the W. A. Board. Articles Taken From Gym. Many person articles missing from the locker room of Robinson Gymnasium has led Coach O. W. O. Hamilton, head of the department of physical education, to believe that the various gymnasium chasses must be harboring petty thieves. Accordingly Coach Hamilton has posted notices in the gym personally offering a reward of ten dollars for the apprehension of the thieves. Students are asked to place personal articles in their lockers, to see that they are locked, and report all suspicious acts on the part of any person to the head of the department.

The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY There are eighteen pounds of metal in the equipment of every United States infantryman. The supreme war council at Versailles has been given entire control of all operations on the western front. Russian newspapers declare that their country's last hope lies in America, and that her help should be accepted. Of the 20,200 alumni of Columbia war service, 90 per cent being in the armed forces. Secretary of War Newton W. Baker has finished his inspection of the American lines in France and praises highly their efficiency. President Wilson signed the Daylight Saving Bill yesterday. All clocks will be moved forward an hour on March 31, and turned back October 27. American artillery in the Lunenville sector blew up a battery of German mine throwers several days ago which had scored several hits on the American trenches. Details have been received of the Allies' recent raid on Coblenz, in which 50 people were killed and much damage was done. The citizens believed the raiders were Americans. The seizure of the Dutch ships in American waters has been delayed until the United States receives the reply of the Dutch government which was sent by way of London, but has been delayed. Fifty thousand tons of shipping will be available to carry food when the ferro-manganese plant at Great Falls, Mont., is completed. The vessels have been bringing the ore from Brazil. Several thousand National Army men left Camp Funston for France some days ago, it is announced. The censor forbids the publishing of any figures or dates, but it is known that the men who went were from the 89th Division. The aircraft board is investigating the charge that airplane manufacturers have been profiteering at the government's expense. It has been decided not to build any more single seat fliers, as General Pershing has recommended that no more be built. The total cost of the war for the Entente allies to date has been 59 billion dollars, and for the Teutonic allies, 30 billion. The Allies are spending 77 million dollars a day, while the daily expense for the Central Powers is 40 million. German army leaders have summoned neutral correspondents to the Western front to witness the "great drive." This, added to the fact that troops have been massed in France in large numbers causes English officers to believe that the attack is imminent. German casualties thus far are 1,500,000 dead, 500,000* crippled for life, and 2,000,000 absolutely invalided. The British have lost in dead, 1,158,000, wounded, 2,922,320, and prisoners, 710,454. The French losses are: dead, 1,655,975, wounded, 919,000, crippled for Life; 3,000,000 and prisoners, 630,809. Red Cross Will Begin Classes in First Aid at Westminster Hal Instruction In Home Nursing Also Will Be Given Women Students The first meeting of the Red Cross class in first aid will be at Westminster Hall tonight. Dr. A. W. Clark, director of the Red Cross Instruction for the Lawrence chapter, will have charge. There is room for more than 100 people, and if the demand is sufficient, additional classes in first aid will be organized. A class in home nursing and care of the sick is being organized by Miss Margaret Lynn, director of war work for women. Only a few places are opened in it. Red Cross certificates are given in this course and in first aid after the examinations sent out by the National Red Cross have been passed. Announcement of the first meeting of the home nursing class will be made later. Enough hospital equipment will be used in the home nursing classes to familiarize students with its use. "Special interest should be taken in "Red Cross classes by University women because the need of nurses is so great," Miss Lynn said today. "Thirty thousand nurses will be needed for the army and there are not enough," she added, necessary to take women who have had the training for nurses' aids. "The need for nurses is also increased. For that reason it is more necessary than ever that women have some knowledge of the practical care of the sick and injured." Adjutant General Of Kansas To Lecture Here Military Drill Classes Will Form At 4 o'Clock And March to Fraser Chapel Charles S. Huffman, Adjutant General of the State of Kanas, will give a military address in Fraser Hall. Thursday afternoon, March 21, at 4 The lecture is for all men of the University. All companies will form at 4 o'clock without arms, rolls will be called as promptly as possible, and the companies will march into Fraser Chapel.

The price is ten cents. Prof. George H. Derry of the department of Romance langages, will give a lecture at the University Club at 8 o'clock Friday night on "Industrial Reform in England and France." Professor Derry has made a special study of economic conditions in these countries since the war began and has spoken on the subject to soldiers at the front lines. He is also third of the series of club evenings given this year at the University Club. Prof. Derry Will Speak On Industrial Reform The statement in the Kansan that women are allowed two unexcused gym cuts every two weeks was a mistake. No gym cuts have been allowed since February 8, Miss Bertha Mix of the department of physical education announced this morning. A Correction Faculty Women Talk On Woman Farm Labor At Land Army Meeting Talks concerning the need of women on farms this next summer were made by Miss Margaret Lynn, Miss Alice Winston, Miss Elise Neuen Schwander and Dr. Grace Charles at a meeting of the Women's Land Army of University held Tuesday night, in Room 101, Fraser. Dr. Ida Hyde of the department of physiology was instrumental in calling the meeting. Miss NeuenSchwander, Farm Woman, Explains Femininity IsEqual to Small Tracts Mas Niem Schwander who lives on a large wheat farm in Western Kansas, explained that women can be useful on small farms in the care of orchards and gardens, but they cannot take the place of men laborers in the wheat fields. "A practical farmer recently tolme me," said Miss Winston, "that the work of women will really be needed on farms this summer. Every woman should do something during the vacation. Illness is the unpardonable sin now." No definite organization was formed for the new movement, because it was decided that the work could be carried on through organizations that already exist. Delegates to the County Army were named as tentative chairmen for the Land Army in their various counties. Jay E.

House, mayor of Topea, writer of the Second Thought column of the Topea Capital, humorist, dramatic critic, and sport writer, will be the guest of honor at the first annual dinner of the Associated Journalism Students of the University in the news room of the Daily Kansan at 6 o'clock tonight. The faculty members of the department will be guests of the Associatiel Journalists. The news room of the Daily Kansas will be used for the dinner in order to give "local color" to the newspaper spread. The reporters' desks will serve as tables. A similar plan was followed at a luncheon given to the Kansas Editorial Association last fall. Fred Rigby, business manager of the Kansas, is managing the dinner tonight on his tour to the city. Mr. Honesty is coming to Lawrence. The subject of his speech has not been announced. W. S. G. A. Will Elect Officers April 5 and 12 Executive Officers Will be Chosen First Friday After Easter—Must Have Petitions The annual political campaign in which only women are concerned, that of the election of officers for the Woman's Student Government Association, is on and election day to be held in Australia.

Seniors To Petition Consent For Banquet The senior-alumni banquet to be held a commencement week may be given if the Senate favors it. Action regarding the banquet had been deferred at the last class meeting until it was dentely learned whether drafted men would be stationed here early this spring. It was learned the soldiers would not arrive until late in the summer, thus leaving Robinson Gymnasium available for the banquet. At a joint meeting of the commencement, the cap and gown, and the invitation committee, Tuesday, it was requested that members for permission to give the banquet. It is the opinion of the committees that an elaborate dinner at this time would be entirely out of place, but it is also felt that some kind of banquet should be given to keep up the University tradition. Plain Tales From The Hill "I think you must be the nieces, girl I have never had the pleasure of meeting." A subtle compliment received by a K. U. maiden from a soldier correspondent she has never met; Prof. Erasmus Haworth had just aken charge of a geology class yesterday. He glanced over the class and said: "I'd like to get an idea about the members of the class. All please look up so that I can get a picture of faces." Most of the students did so. "Ah, I thought so," continued the Professor. "The young ones look up first. You are keeping your faces down must be twenty-five years old at least." Motor cars are out of date; the University is returning to the days of the old-fashioned buggy rides. This morning the new Pi Phi buggy was stored on their front porch. Members of the sorority say that it was a gift, and are baiming bands of night-prowling students. It's a joyous exhilaration when a double-pronged boomerang returns to its sender with a jolt and no little excitement. It hilariousizes an Acacia upperclassman. He was quite active in helping several brothers paddle an offending freshman. When he returned from this escapade, he found he had left the light in his room burning. Other students approached him to the gullion to get his punishment, a paliding for wasting electricity. Feterita flour has been rechristened by one of the women in a home economics class that has been working out substitutes for wheat flour. This woman pointed at another woman working industriously at a new type of bread, and remarked to her neighbor, "I wonder what kind of flour that girl is using over there, cafeteria?" This was perpetrated by one of the professors yesterday morning: "Count that day lost whose low descending sun Sees Howard Morgan in no theatrical performance well-done. Speaking of the Pbi Betta Kappa election, or more specifically of two who were elected, a University woman said this morning: "Well, I think it's funny that both would get on. You know when one of a couple is smart, the other is usually dumb. Now take me; I'm looking for a smart man, myself." Start Work on Brick Work of Ad.

Political Science Now Separate Department College Faculty Divides History Group—Dykstra New Chairman The department of political science was officially made a separate department of the history group of the college at a meeting of the College faculty Tuesday. Prof. C. A. Dykstra was appointed chairman of the department. The separation of history and political science into separate departments of the history group was made because the combination of the two subjects was necessary in the courses a student majoring in one of the two subjects could take in the other as a department major is limited to forty hours.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20.1918 Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? WHAT THEY CAN DO AND CANT Kansas crops must be harvested; here is the K. U. Land Army, sleeves rolled up, looking the Kansas farmer fearlessly in the eye. Picture them, if you can, an army of women students, laboring manfully to save the golden grain. True farm labor is scarse, the right kind of labor is. But to launch an army of untried women into the fields would not be considered even by the farmer himself. Zealous patriotism and the lure of making big money, harvest hands will realize about eight dollars the day the summer, has exaggerated the attractiveness of converting University women into farmer hands. But doubtless the best reason for any K. U. woman to believe that she can be of eight or even four dollars worth of help to a harvesting crew is that she knows nothing whatever of farming. Granted that many of our women students are from farms and are well enough acquainted with rural life to distinguish a pollstrap from a line, or a neck-yoke form a single-tree. Some of them may know even the details of all the harvesting machinery. Even so they are physically unfit to "carry on" a days work in the harvest fields. They couldn't stack or run a header, they might drive a barge. It would be exciting to keep the top-sided box from tipping over on every corner, and to follow the header round and round until the barge was filled. Imagine the young woman when she tried pitching off a load of bearded wheat. If the K. U. Land Army is desirous of aiding the country let it exert its feminine strength on some tasks commensurate with the feminine strength and ability. If the instinct to till the soil be indomitable let them till a garden plot. The exercise and contact with a little earth will be of value to them. But it will be wasted time if this group attempt to do a work at which many men fail. Dont worry Angeline, if the farmer needs you he will call. While she cannot toil like a man, woman of the K. U. Land Army may do useful and patriotic work in gardening, poultry raising, community canning, cooking for the farmer's wife, or she need not feel absolutely useless if she just continue making surgical dressings and knitting. Work at which she should be skillful if she is doing her bit right now. Some women at food conservation lectures remind us of the expression, "you can lead a mule to water but you can't make him drink. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT From the Fronts Our Boys Write Home First Company, Third Officers' Training Camp. Camp Funston Kansas. March 16, 1918 My dear Editor:- K. U. has her representatives at the 3rd O., T. C, at Camp Funston just the same as she has them every place where things are happening, no matter in what part of the world it may be. There are about five hundred student officers here, among whom are the following men who were at K. U. during my student days there: Harold Deloeban, Reed Golden, Bronne Jackson, William Boone, Raymond Cooper, Hugh Baird, Charles Strickland, John B. Franka, Samuel Barnes, and John Crego. This third series of Officers' Training Camps was made up practically entirely from men already in the service and hence has been able to make a great advancement in training over them. This has allowed very high due to the fact that those not able to stand the pace dropped out early in the course. The training is very liberal and includes many corues that one not acquainted with the army game would not imagine to be included in the curriculum. A student in order to make the highest type of officer should be the greatest leader ever born, should know law better than Uncle Jimmie, should be able to outwalk Payson Westen, know more about mechanics than Edison, be a better map maker than the entire staff of Rand Mnally, and outshoot Buffalo Bill; he must have more patience than Job, never sleep, and of course, now he must speak French. How many of us have approached this ideal will be shown about April 19th. So my own squad room there are thirty students, of this number twenty-three are college or university men, representing sixteen different schools scattered across the United States from Colby College, Maine, to the University of Puget Sound. Practically every degree granted by a university is represented there. There are 12 different fraternities represented including Sigma Xi, Phi Beta Kappa, Delta Kappa Epsilon, Pi Kappa Alpha, Pi Upsilon, Delta Upsilon, Phi Alpha Delta, and T. N. E. This is only one of the squadr rooms, all the others are similar. The fact is, seems as though we are continuing our study as heavily as if we worked hard in school as we do here we could take an A. B. in a year's time and a Ph.D. in two. I am also glad to state that an extremely small percent of the men that have fallen by the wayside have been colleague trained men. Yours sincerely, JAMES B.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN University to Plant No Beans and Feed No Cattle This Summer Campus War Garden And Grazing Privileges Lost Money Last Year There probably will be no campus war garden this spring and summer, as last year, said John Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds today. Last summer the University patriotically planted four acres in the northwest corner of the campus to beans and corn. "The beans flourished and produced abundantly last year," said Mr. Shen, "but a good part of the crop went to waste. The carving factory was busy with peas at the time the University beans matured and consequently couldn't take care of the comparatively small crop of beans. The home economics department had neither the help nor the money to can the beans. "The corn made only a short crop. The ground is near a hilltop and apparently was too high and otherwise unsuited to such cropping. The idea of a University war garden is hard to achieve but it is sufficiently well to justify it at the present high price of labor and other considerations. "The University last year also paturated cows on the campus, as a part of 'doing its bit.' But that, too, proved expensive. It is very difficult to get competent men to herd the cattle, because of the shortage of labor, and the cattle must be herded to keep them safe. Like the war garden, it was a splendid idea, but it didn't prove economical." For House Mothers Bv the Way Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, will entertain fraternity and sorority house mothers Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock in the woman's rest room in Fraser Hall.

The committee is Dorphy Sandberg, Mignon Schell, Mary Hawkins, Luella Varner and Mrs. Inez Mosier. Miss Violet Kilgore, c'17, and Miss Maud Kilgore, g'17, were guests at the Chi Omega house for the week end. K. U. Companies Drill With Bombless Bombs Same Idea in Casting Used As In the Familiar Quoits Game The military drill companies of the University have begun practice drills with bombless bombs. The dummy bombs are shaped the same and weigh the same as the French FI, or defensive bomb. They weigh about 1½ pounds and are long, shape them like a barrel, with quite round ends. The men in practice are stationed in numbered squares marked on the ground. Ten yards away are other squares with corresponding numbers. The company is divided into halves and part take the squares on one side and the remainder station themselves in the squares on the other side. Each man is given two bombs, and at the command "cast" throws the bomb overhand at the square in front of him. The man in the opposite square marks the score. If the one who throws the bomb hits the post in the center of the square he scores a bull-scye, otherwise the place where the bomb hits is scored by the clock method. The side of the square farthest from the score is designated as 12 o'clock, the side nearest him is 6, the rest of the scores go in clockwise fashion. In real practice the FI bomb has an exploding radius of approximately 220 yards. Soldiers of the grenade squad are taught that if through their carelessness in handling a grenade the lives of the rest of are架 are endangered they must sacrifice their own lives. In throwing the bomb it is grasped in the right hand with the fore-finger pressing a knob, which on a real bomb is the lever that fires the Grenade. When the command "reads" is given the men balance on the toes of both hands and hold the ballpointing in the direction the bomb is to be thrown. At the command "cast" the right arm is brought over the head in an overhand swing. Take your old fountain pen to Barber & Son, Druggists, and receive $1 credit on an Ink-Tite self-filling pen.

Six Additional Teams Enter for State High School Tournaments Athletic Association Champion ship Will Be Decided At This Time Six additional entries for boys teams were received this morning by Manager Hamilton for the State High School Tournament which begins Friday morning, and two new girls' teams have also been entered. This makes the entry list for the boys total thirty-four and the girls total twelve. The boys' team which have entered since yesterday are—Reno County, Hays, Parsons, Bonner Springs, Oread and Horton, while Oread and Turner are the late entries among the girls' teams. The entry list is almost complete now, according to Manager Hamilton, and the schedule and the drawings for opponents were made yesterday afternoon. Horton and Rosedale have entered boys' teams since the schedule of games was completed, and the team has been placed when the first boys' team drops out, while Horton will wait until the second team drops out before taking the floor. A new feature of the tournament this year will be the State High School Athletic Association tournament which will be played inside the big tournament. According to the arrangement which has been made, the winners of the Congressional District championships will play among themselves until the winner is decided at 10:15 Saturday morning, when that team will enter the semi-finals with one of the teams outside the District championship class at 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The entry list in the tournament includes some of the classiest high school teams in the Missouri Valley, as is shown by the fact that Wichita has already defeated Kansas City Central, the Missouri State champions and has been defeated by Arkansas City and Winfield, two Arkansas Valley league teams which are entered in the tournament. Newton, winners of the State title last year and of the championship in the Eighth Congressional District and the Arkansas Valley League this year, will again be in the fight for the State honors, while Lawrence is expected to be in the fight until at least the semi-finals are played. Atchison, Reno County, Topoke, Hays, Parsons, Chanute, Solomon and Emporia are all in the District championship class and should help to make the competition closer than ever before in a Kansas State High School tournament. The final game for the boys' championship will be played on the big court on the main floor of the gymnasium, Saturday at 7:30 o'clock. All the girls' games will be played on the two cross courts on the main gym floor, and the final game will take place at 4:30 Saturday afternoon. The boys' semi-finals will be played at 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon and the girls' semi-finals will be played Saturday morning at 11 o'clock. Women Will Play Finals In Intramural Tourney Alpha Xi Delta will play Brush League Day night at 7:15 o'clock in a final dash for the loving cup which will be awarded to the winner of the Intramural basketball tournament. The teams appear evenly matched and a hotly contested game is expected.

A. players, by a wonderful spurt in the second half rapidly piled up their score. Joyce Brown, who made seven free goals out of a possible eight, and Margaret Wasson, forwards for the Y. W. C. A., made every chance at both halfs in the second half. Evelina Watt did splendid work as running center. The Alpha Xi Delta lineup with the Trant-Bottomly-Barnett combination did their usual good work. The Brush League defeated W. A. 12-9 in a close game. A series of quick passes with excellent work by Marjorie Castle, center for the Brush team, led to a victory for the team in spite of the opposition of a good lineup for W. A. A. Baseball Candidates Turn Out on McCook For Spring Practice Twenty-five Varsity Men Res pond To First Call—Frosh Limber Up twenty-five candidates responded to the first call for Varsity outdoor baseball practice on McCook Field yesterday afternoon. Coaches Bond and Wedell put the men through a light workout on the field, but most of the afternoon was spent in batting practice. About thirty-five freshmen reported to Dutch Wedell for their practice and said they fresh-fruit squad limbered up on the east end of McCook while the Varsity men were using the diamond. The Varsity pitchers were putting nothing on the ball in batting practice and as a result, the men were hitting far and wide. Dutch Schoenfeld, Cherry, Schepoepel, Isnerberg, Bunn and Caler hit the ball to all corners of the field, Dutch's and Cherry's drives going clear to the fence in deep left field. Only two of the candidates batted from the left side of the plate and none duplicated Lindsey's favorite pastime of driving long hits over the bleachers in right field. Caler, Schepoepel, Cherry and Slawson worked in turn in the box and although each man merely lobbed the ball, each had trouble in finding the plate, as six batters were hit by pitched balls during the practice. Warren, Woody and Kitchen did all the catching and succeeded in handling the pitches in good shape. Civark practice will be held on McCook field each afternoon at 4 o'clock and the Varsity-freshmen practice games will begin soon as the coaches get a line on their men and all the candidates get used to handling the ball. The first games on the Varsity field are played on Saturday. McCook field, April 22, 23 and 24. It is probable, however, that games will be played with teams in the Kansas State Conference before the opening of the Missouri Valley season.

"Amarilly of Clothes Line Alley" is Mary Pickford's latest characterization. It will be shown at both Varsity and Bowersock, Friday, and at the Bowersock only on Saturday. Freshman women were recently asked to report as to how they use the 108 hours of the week, and a striking number have been shown in the distribution of the hours. Several women could not account for all of their time. Said one: "I cannot account for the other thirteen hours. I guess I have just wasted them." The results of the reports are tabulated below: Work- 17 to 93 hours a week. Sleep- 40 to 70 hours a week. Recreation- 0 to 43 hours *a* week. Transport to person- 7 to 37 hours week. Rest—3 to 13 hours a week. Active Exercise—3 to 44 hours a week. Organized Activities—0 to 20 hours a week.

Eleventh Tournament Of Kansas High Schools Opens in Gym Friday Boys' Games Start With Viola Against Linwood and Iola Against Williamsburg UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 21, 1918. Management Expects 400 State High School Athletic Association Championship will Also Be Decided The eleventh annual high school basketball tournament will bog 'n at 10 o'clock Friday morning with vlaia opposing linwood on one of the cross courts in Robinson gymnasium and Iola playing Williamsburg on the other. The preliminary games in the boys' tournament will then continue until 2 o'clock Friday after vlaia's third game, those between Merriam and Chanute and between Argentine and Burlington are played. The fact that Parsons, Newton, Topeka, Solomon, Lawrence, Reno County, Emporia and Hays high schools will play among themselves until 10:15 Saturday morning to decide the State High School Athletic Association championship, will mean that the interest in the tournament will be centered on those teams in the early games. Wichita, Iola, Winfield, Arkansas City, Larned, McPherson and other quintets outside the District championship class undoubtedly play an excellent brand of basketball. The stream of high school students will begin to pour into Lawrence this evening and Coach Hamilton believes there will be four hundred visitors by the time the tournament begins tomorrow morning. The Olympus Club, the newly organized association of "K" men for the promotion of better athletics at the University, has charge of receiving the guests and making arrangements for their accommodation while in Lawrence, and according to Willard Hilton and George Nettles, chairman of the reception committee, provisions have been made for the entertainment of every team. EP Education will entertain one girls' team, and they will furnish almost enough accommodation for the entire list of girls' teams, as there are only twelve entered. Fraternities, clubs and other organizations will entertain the boys' teams. Silver loving cups will be awarded to the winners of the championship in both the boys' and girls' tournaments, while smaller loving cups will be given the runners-up in both tournaments. A large silver loving cup will also be awarded to the winner of the State High School championship, as the contest between the champions of the eight Congressional districts, is called. ALLEN AND BROWN WILL REFEREE Phog Allen, athletic director at the Warrenburg Normal School, who referred many of the games in the Misericordia Cup and Red Brown of Kansas City, official referee of the Kansas City high school games, will handle all the games in the tournament. ALLEN AND BROWN WILL REFEREE Season tickets, which will admit to all the games, will be sold in the gymnasium tomorrow for eight-three cents, which includes the war tax. Holders of season tickets will not be allowed to enter the gym more than once during one session. Single admission tickets, admitting to one session only, will be sold for twenty-eight cents.

There were twenty-one girls' teams entered in the tournament last year. However, there probably will be other teams to enter before Friday noon. The War Here and Over There WAR THOUGHT FOR TODAY WHO WOULD FORK TOOK "It is Germany," says a Hun paper "who will speak the last word in this war." We agree. And the last word will be "Kamerad." Chicago Tribune. The Allies now have 42 million tons of shipping. German spys are suspected of burning two elevators at Ellsworth, Kansas. The total amount of shipping sunk in the last twelve months was 6 million tons. Pope Benedict announces that the cardinals will not meet until the war is over. The Overman Bill has been favorable reported upon by the Senate judiciary committee. Secretary Baker had a taste of shell fire yesterday when a shell burst within forty yards of his motor car. The United States army in France vill use a larger per cent of artillery han any other of the allied armies. Two Norwegian ships were sunk yesterday by submarines and one Swiss wheat ship was sunk by collision. The Kansas state board of agriculture advises farmers to dispose of their wheat at once in order to relieve the wheat shortage. Sir Eric Geddes, British first Lord of the Admiralty, said yesterday in the House of Commons that England's net losses due to submarines were now only 100,000 tons monthly. General Porshing has approved the awarding of the new American Military crosses for extraordinary heroism. Petrograd dispatches say that it is only a matter of hours before that city will be occupied by the Germans. A DAILY LETTER HOME—The Daily Kansas. Following are the war loans of the principal European belligerents: Germany, six loans, 14 billion dollars; Great Britain, three loans, 10 billion; France, two loans, 8 billion; Russia, seven loans, 6 billion, and Austria-Hungary, six loans, 7 billion. Alpha Xi Delta Wins Championship Game in Intramural Tournament Defeat Brush League In Final Round; Running Center Makes Thirteen Points Alpha Xi Delta defeated Brush League by a score of 33-12 in the final game of the intramural basketball tournament last night, thereby winning the loving cup. The Alpha Xi Delta team was at its best and won the first half by a score of 21-2. The second half was much closer but the inability of the Brush League forwards to shoot goals prevented them from running up a large score. Nelle Beidengo, guard for Brush League, played a fast, clean game and her guarding team kept this season alive. Helen Barnett, star forward on the freshmen team this season, played running center for Alpha Xi Delta and was responsible for thirteen points for her team. A similar tournament will be held next year and more entries are expected according to Coach Hazel Pratt. Alpha Xi Delta, 33: The summary: G FT S. Trant, r. f., 5 1 C. Ames, l. f., O 0 R.

Plain Tales From The Hill Now is the time that the epidemic of marble-shooting is ravaging the younger schoolboys of Lawrence. But it is not confined to them alone. The other day a junior, two freshmen, and a sophomore—yes, University students—were found playing the sport. Not on the streets or campus, however, but in their room where there was no danger of professionals intervening and breaking them up by engaging them in a game of "keeps." Quite often in the past the young Romeo who had acquired unto himself a library date found lots of trouble in killing time until the fair Juliet had spent enough time in the library and was ready to go, er, nw... He had been longer than he could go down the Hill for a coke or idly peruse dull magazines. There's no light in the men's slouk room of Spooner any more, and so the dater goes into the library, hangs up his hat, and escorts the datee into the reading room. Then he returns and begins a search in the dark for his mother, but by now he found it, the lady is ready to go down the Hill. A freshman had an idea this morning, "Say," he whispered to a neighboring student as the instructor was entering a flunk in his black-covered book, "is that book called a roll book because it has grades in it?" "No." returned the student against whom the flunk was written. "It's called a grade book because it catches all the slides." If the other students of the University feel sorry for the Laws who attend classes Saturdays as well as other days, the felling is not shared by the School of Law, instructors say. The plan has proved a success, they say. A month before the other schools leave the Hill, members of the School of Law will be feeling dust between their toes back on the farm or hugging some office stool. The last quarter of the year for them starts next Saturday. The freshman women have made a report on how they spend their time. But here's a way one University man reckons his 168 hours a week. Active exercise: 18 hours Inactive exercise: 50 hours. Here the man includes those hours spent in taking notes on a class lecture while sleeping. Climbing the Hill: 12 hours Chasing his hat: 6 hours. kansan To Offer Prize For Best Student Poem The rest of the time is equally apportioned among organized activities, rest, and "unaccounted for." A prize for the best poem written by a University student will be offered by the Daily Kansan this spring, the Kanan board decided at its regular meeting last night. The contest is open only to students and a companion. The winner will award the prize. The rules of the contest will be announced later. Viyian Sturgeon was elected editor-in-chief to succeed Alice Bowlby, Mary Smith was elected news editor, Howard Morgan Plain Tales editor, and Marjory Roby war editor. Helen Peffer, who takes the place of Lawson May as society editor, was elected to the board. Math. Club Meets Monday Math Club meets Monday J. H. Hoover, a fellow in the department of Mathematics, will speak at a meeting of the Mathematics Club Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock, Room 103, Administration Building, on "Mathematicians Who Become Famous in Other Fields." Marco Morrow Calls Ad Men Public Buyers At Journalist Banquet Leading Kansas Advertising Genius Puts Up Progressive Ideals For Profession Recites Rotarian Prayer Fred Rigby's Associated Families Eat and Listen Hard Under Newsroom Lights "Time was when the advertising man took his selling orders from the big distributer and put stuff out to the public; time is now and increasingly hereafter that this ad. man will look out for his community's advantageous buying." This is the gist of Marrow Morro's interpretation of his function today as he gave it straight form to the Associated Journalists at their first annual dinner in the Kansan newsroom Wednesday night. Mr. Morrow, advertising manager of the Topeka Capital, came as a swift and sudden substitute for Jay House who could not get away "nohow." He opened with the first thing that all journalists ask—with a question he had asked him just yesterday after having much can I make at it?" And Mr. Morrow said that that sort of man had no business in the profession. Then he launched into what was expected of the modern advertising man as contrasted to what the advertising job took for in cash remuneration to self. ADVERTISING REAL DISTRIBUTING ADVERTISING REAL DISTRIBUTING "The public has got to pay to be educated," said Mr. Morrow. "The utility, necessity, and economy of a new product must have returns on what the advertisement costs. But after that—the advertising man has no ethical right to pat over which the public has to pay for at its end. After the right product is known it does not need to double its price per unit for advertising purposes. "Theforet advertising today is merchandising," continued Mr. Morrow. "It has a definite place in the field of distribution and its cost must be charged to distribution and be incorporated into proper proportion to the whole cost of production from raw product to finished article in the hands of the consumer." REDUCE COST TO CONSUMERS The production potential of the United States Mr. Marrow declared unquestionable. The whole problem involved on distribution and in the settlement of this he insisted that the advertising man study the needs of consumers, act as buyers for them, guide them to advantageous purchase of the best goods for purposes designated. He recently persuaded a Commercial Club to call itself a Community Club and one of the members ironically advised him to build an ideal town of his own where ad. men could afford to be purchasing agent for a community. Mr. Morrow declined the idea and said with the fact that the ad. man has got to do this or be called an unpleasant name in the community, a name it is not good business to possess. Public confidence in its own representative, the advertising man, would in Mr. Morrow's opinion, enlarge the field and intensify the economies of advertising and reduce the cost of distribution to its minimum. And that object he stated as the goal for his profession. In conclusion he recited the Rotarian prayer which he wrote in verse for the Rotarians some time ago. It is about the business man asking the gods that he be neither greedy nor beggerly, but rather that he be enlightened to take his share of the world's wealth and to take hisakes, and in giving deliver to the other fellow just a little more than the other fellow ever got before. DAILY KANSAN ANNEX Professor Flint preceded Mr. Morrow with a few words in behalf of the department of journalism in which he reminisced a bit and prophesied some more, especially in regard to the "Daily Kanax Annex" as the fitting approximate to the name given the place of publication for the world's greatest newspaper—"The New York Times Annex." Cora Sha, c'17, will visit at the Chi Omega house over Sunday.

U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan hopes to promote graduate life of the University of Kansas than merely printing the news by standing for the ideal. Students, for example, have favorites; to be clairt; to be cheerful; to be attentive; to be helpful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1918 Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? MOLEHILLS DO GROW This time it is the goodness-awful story of the young women who were so audacious as to walk across the University of Kansas campus in broad day light, to enter a building used for purposes of instruction and laboratory experimentation in engineering. They should have been chaperoned. Somebody said so. Somebody in afterthought offered to be chaperon. And it was a story, a tremendous story the A. P. should have put a time-dash on and flashed across the state. The proposed visit of the young ladies to the Engineering Building was advertised three days in advance. Trust the Jayhawker publicity men for that. Offers of chaperonage should have come within those glowing days. They are too late now, and had best be left unproffered, unuttered, especially since they would have been quite superfluous in the first place. Beauties? Who said they were Beauties? Who believed it? Contestants out for votes? Who ever denied that? The engineers are neither Bluebeards nor ogres. They had a modern business conception wonderfully burlesqued. The candidates were just like all candidates. They did what other candidates would do even in a Lawrence, Kansas, city election. Then why the holy horror at a happy lark? Everyone personally concerned knows there was no indiscretion in the conduct of the young women. The lash of adverse criticism has cut because it lacked justification, because it possessed an entirely different spirit. University students resent the implication that women students should need a chaperon to accompany them to any classroom on the campus, especially when faculty members, whose presence constitutes chaperonage, are present. There is no ban on the feminine presence in Fowler Shops. On the contrary, there have been women students there in engineering courses. As for personally requesting votes, the contestants this year have only followed established precedent and prevalentcustom. If this were an unusual practice there might have been something said a long time ago. If propriety had been violated in the personal solicitation of votes year in and year out, why didn't'the censure come before now? If the rule is to be laid down now, let it be universally applied. Let no one ask another for a favor or a courtesy, or a gift, or for the conventionnal exchange which really lies at the bottom of most giving. This is nonsensefI however. This a stirring trouble where no trouble was or actually is except for its subjective existence apart from objective fact. Reigning social mandates have not been violated by anybody, neither now nor in the years gone by. Twentieth century Kansas ideas of chaperonage do not correspond to those of the Spanish Duenna. And it took a whole gang of steam-shovels to heave up the dust from around just one of many monotonous molechills. PERT PUERILITY Signs are signs. They tell things. Witch they tell things on somebody they get an opprobrious name and sometimes precipitate unpleasant consequences. The sign which made faces at Fraser Hall from the safe distance of concealed identity of authorship this morning was just plain infantile. The sign said something about chaperones and engineers and young women and so on, and it had a glass case on the corner of the sidewalk right in view of people who had to go by it on their way to University business. The sign was not worth reading. Too little mentality was behind it. Not only Fraser Hall but the rest of the University can afford to ignore both it and the children who scrawled it.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Chancellor Appointed Advisor At Plattsburg College Presidents To Supervise Junior Camp For Men Under Draft Chancellor Frank Strong has been appointed a member of the advisory board of the Junior Plattsburg Training Camp, which will be opened at Plattsburg, N. Y., this summer. The camp will accommodate 600 men. That instructors will be officers of the regular army and of the navy. The government has abandoned the summer training camps it maintained before the war, but upon the suggestion of Major General Leonard Wood the junior Plattsburg has been established by private initiative. Prof. Edward Capps of Princeton is head of the executive staff, and the advisory board is twenty members of university presidents. The work will align itself with the military efforts of the colleges and universities throughout the country. The training offered at Plattsburg will be similar to that of the regular United States army and navy camps, combined with special courses in aeroplane ground work, hydroplaneing, motor boats, topography, and military applications of civil, mechanical and electrical engineering. Fred T. Dawson of the Princeton athletic department will have charge of the recreation of the men in camp. By the Way Jack Caffrey, c.117, is spending a few days in Lawrence visiting old friends.

O. Hamilton. Varsity tennis players will be the first ones to get the use of the courts. "The men enrolled in gymnasium will be allowed to play tennis as a substitute for gym work on the days when tennis playing is possible," said W. O. Hamilton today. "No students will be allowed to substitute tennis for any other form of physical training all the time, since tennis playing is important until half the weather." No students will be allowed on the courts under any conditions unless they wear tennis shoes.

NUMBER 115. University May Have Uniformed Battalion Of Guards Next Year Adjudant General of Kansas City Offers to Aid in Getting Organization Army Officers Drill Men Time To Quit Doing Our Bit And Do Our Best, Students Are Told A battalion of State Guards at K. U., recognized as a military organization by the State of Kansas was postponed by Chas. S. Huffman, Adjunct General of Kansas in an address before the men of the University in Fraser Hall Thursday afternoon. "If the Board of Administration and faculty of the University wish to get this organization," said Al Huffman, "I will do all I can to have it recognized by the state. It could be not done this semester, but probably by next fall a retired army officer, of whom there are several available, complete, cohesive, and uniformed furnished those students joining the unit. No larger force than a battalion could be enmined, however." STATE GUARDS ORGANIZING The State Guards is an organization for home defense, with guard duty within the state only. About 15,000 men, according to General Huffman, have joined it in Kansas, but as yet the state can not equip them because there are no legal provisions for appropriation. Many communities are equipping their own units, the speaker said. Kansas City is the only place in the state where the force is doing guard duty now, he said, and there many prominent citizens take part in patrol duty. "OUIT DOING BIT—DO REST" A retired army officer will soon travel over the state, the speaker said, holding schools for officers of State Guards communities. "QUIT DOING BIT—BID BEES," "We want to quit doing our bit and do our best." was the war message of General Huffman, taking it from the words of Harry Lauder. "The man who gave us the tools are told to go over the top do not say they will think about it, but go right over. This is what Lauder says we must do in America when we are invited to enter war activities." General Huffman was for fifteen years in the Twentieth Kansas Regiment, and served in the Philippines, and became a senator for the last fourteen years.

T. Beck, editor of the Holton Recorder, put this morning to a class in editorial problems and policies in the department of journalism. Community usefulness and understanding, faithfulness to trust undertaken he made guiding leads for his discussion. The country correspondent who writes for glory and the interest of a small neighborhood he lauded as his reliance in the country field. And he said that many a yarn that would make big news for an impersonal city paper just couldn't be run to hurt feelings around home. That was why the country editor could be so happy and live so long at his job. Will Print New Features In Graduate Magazine Early Recollections of North College Told By K. U. The Graduate Magazine for March has great interest for the students, for it contains stories of youthful North College as persons who were students in the first University building remember it. "The Home of Memories" is the title given to the full page cut of Old North College. The first article, given a short history, was written by John A. Ross Leis tells her impressions of that first year in the new building. Other early students recall the ideals which were set in those early years, and the faces and places which were seen. Carrie M. Watson, 77, writes "A Rgregret" that this building must be razed. A recollection by Hannah Oliver, 74, is titled "From First to Last." The last reminiscence written by Kate Stephens, 75, is "North College: A Chant" in rhythmic style. There is also a song composed by Miss Stephens. Another unusual feature of this number is the advertising. In response to a request from the government the advertisements were made patriotic. The Graduate Magazine is the first alumni magazine which has complied with this request. Mix Goes To Lincoln— Serves on War Board Dr. A. J. M., plant pathologist of the Dr. A. J.

The Emergency War Board is appointed by the American Phytopathological Society, and is a voluntary organization brought about as a result of the desire on the part of the Plant Pathologists of the country to assist in stopping the leakage in the cro production. The American Phytopathological Society held its annual meeting it December and divided the country into districts with a chairman for each. The meeting at Lincoln was of the great plains district, including the grain and cereal producing states. Easter Gift to Van Raises Wild Rumpus "Paul he done it. I would like to strangle that rascal and give him one g-rand kick. So!" Van the keeper of the K. U. menageries was furious. He had the Kansan newsroom tilting at thirty-seven angles. Paul the genial janitor of Snow Hall had presented Van with quadruplet bunnies as an Easter remembrance and Van did not appreciate it. The big story broke Thursday morning when Van stood appalled before the cubby-home of the widow rabbit whose wild mate died the day after their arrival on December 11, last. It was December 11 and 3:10 p. m., and that was down in black and white in Van's note book which looks more like a record of thumb prints than a proper hotel register. Thursday morning it crashed in on Van. He was feeding the widow her usual breakfast. Only he had cared for her in all the months gone by. Only he had had even a chance to see her. And there were four children living with him. Van rushed over to all the departments in reach. It was news. Doctor Robertson wanted to buy them immediately. Rarest prizes ever known, he said. Doctor Baugartner was astounded and began to work up a bibliography which might contain books for good old Van'ts. He declared for good old Van'ts an questionable veracity. "He couldn't do a liar," he was the general verdict. And Van felt badly. Papa bunny so long dead, poor fatherless little cottontails, how sad, how sad. If on the verge of suicide he could them! if He could only see them! Van had the story ready for the press. It was to be released under a time limit. Then Paul got scared and confessed. The children were adopted. Mamma bunny looked lonesome in there all sole alone. He tried to make her happy. But he destroyed Van's sense of mind. "I must be exonerated. I must not be exposed to such villainy. People must not think I am such an easy follow. I do the best I can. I have been deceived." Van said among other things, many other things. College Fraternities Pay 10 Per Cent Tax Tax Applies When Dues Exceed $12.00 Per Annum College fraternities and sororites are paying a tax of ten per cent on all dues and initiation fees, under the present internal revenue law. The collector of internal revenue for the eighth district issued an order explaining the law and showed that college organizations were included. The order in part reads: "College fraternities are social clubs within the meaning of section 701, and their fees and dues are taxable. The department has ruled that where the dues and membership fees of a college fraternity are in excess of $12.00 per annum, a tax must be paid on account thereof, even though such dues or membership fees are in part payment for board and lodging, subscription to magazines, purchase of pins, etc." "However, where any amount paid covers charges for the items mentioned above, the tax applies only to the amount paid as due. The order also explains that the tax cannot be avoided by describing a charge that is paid for dues as board, lodging or some unattaxable item." Plain Tales From The Hill Now is the time that love games are again popular at the University. So, you guessed wrong. It's not that. T playing in and here's where those games come in. Just one participant in the love game can be happy, however. The other must weep about his shut-out defeat. Be that as it may, fraternities and rooming houses are rolling the courts and preparing for the spring pastime. Economics prof: "That's all right, Miss Adams. Your answer has a point to it, which is very unusual in the reply of the average student. Now, Johnson, can you put Miss Adams's answer into English so that the rest of us can understand it?" A man with a heavy gold watch chain festooning the front of his vest was walking through Fraser Hall. From the chain hung several large ornaments and charms. A student looked at the vest front and then at the salvage box. "My," said the student, "what a fat mans for the box." Several K. U. instructors are considering buying Puritan nondoes poles to try to force students to take their sleep at proper hours and not between times. Reminders that classrooms are not Pullman have proved ineffective. Corn Anne Grundy, born on Monday, Christened on Tuesday, Learned to knit Wednesday, Knitted sox Thursday Red Cross Friday, Gathered salvage Saturday, Wrote her soldier Sunday, and that was the Best of Corn Anne Grundy, Who knitted again Monday— Members of the Advertising class and others interested in advertising will spend Saturday in Kansas City visiting various advertising agencies, engraving plants and newspaper offices.

At the conclusion of Professor Derry's talk before the University club this evening there will be an informal meeting of all those who have attended Harvard, with the view of founding a Harvard Club here. LIQUID Air Prof. H. R. F. Cady, of the department of chemistry, has been sent out through the university extension department to several towns in Kansas to give a series of lectures on Liquid Air. Lecturing on Liquid Air Forum Meeting Postponed our meeting postponed. Due to a fact that several other meetings were invited for Thursday day afternoon the Woman's Forum was postponed.

Basketball Championship Nearer After Preliminary Elimination Merriam-Chanute and Argentine-Burlington Games Open Series Followed by Gardner-Achison and Herrington-Rosedale Contests—Second Round' Played Tonight Women from all Kansas Meet in Contest for Supremacy Emporia, Hays, Baldwin, Winfield, Macksville, Larned, Rosedale, Iola, Linwood and Newton Will Enter Second Round In the first round of the State Basketball Tournament, being played today at Robinson Gymnasium, teams from Emporia, Hays, Baldwin, Winfield, Macksville, Larned, Rosedale, Arkansas City, McPherson, Wichita, Argentine, Parsons, Iola, Linwood and Newton have eliminated their competitors, and are placed for the second round, which begins late this afternoon. Emporia had things its own way in the second half and the whirlwind offense dazed the Solomon boys, who began to pass wild and take long chances at goal. Baird played excellent ball for the Emporians, leading in goal shooting with four goals from 17. Emperor Daniel Jensen was strong on the defensive end. Sullivan and Neil showed up best for Solomon. WINEFIELD 37: OREAD 0 Emporia, coming from behind in the latter part of the first half and playing great basketball, eliminated the Solomon five, winners of the Fifth District championship. Solomon started the game in whirlwind fashion and ran up a score of eight to two against Emporia before the Emporators were fairly back. The Emporia quintet came back strong in the latter part of the half, however, and led by one point at the end of the first period. The high school students began pouring into Lawrence last night and the steady stream continued until late this morning. The gymnasium was crowded throughout the morning with students on the hill and high school visitors and most of the games were well played and fast, considering the crowded conditions in the gymnasium. HAYS, 25; LAWRENCE, 14. The Eleventh Annual State High School basketball tournament began with a rush at 10 o'clock this morning when Solomon was eliminated by Emporia and Lawrence was put out the running by the fast Hays City five. The Hays City quintet spring one of the surprises of the early part of the tournament by winning the first game, played at 10 o'clock, from the Lawrence five, one of the favorites in the play. Hays surprised everybody by staging a brilliant offensive and clearly out-played Lawrence through the game. Captain Houk of the Lawrence quintet was off form and tossed only one goal from the field, while Westeermeyer and Olson performed well on the floor and each caged two baskets. Baldwin, 25; LEAVENWORTH, 8 Baldwin easily eliminated Leavenworth from the running in their game at 10:30 this morning. Baldwin out-clasped her opponents in every department of the game and led by a score of 15-4 at the end of the first half, center and upfield. The Baldwin five was the outstanding star of the game, scoring all but two or three of his team's field goals and throwing free throws almost uneringly. W. Grass, Hays forward, and F. Grass, guard, were the stars on the western quintet, the former accounting for 10 points and the latter shooting three goals from the field, besides playing a stellar game at guard. Leavenworth played better ball during the second half than during the first, but failed to cope with the strong defense of the Baldwin team. Meagan Leavenworth and Williams, for Leavenworth and Williams, with Butell starred for Baldwin. WINFIELD, 37; OREAD, 0 Winfield, playing the best basketball seen in the tournament thus far, swamped the Oread Training School five in the other 10:30 game this morning. The tall and rangy forwards of the Winfield quintet toyed with Oread and the Lawrence men could do nothing against Winfield's stonewall defense. Johnson, right forward, was the best pointetter for Winfield, as he scored six goals from the field and had little trouble evading the Oreand guards. Reiff, the other forward, added five shots from the field to his team's total and Cairnes, at center, played an excellent floor game and had a big part in working the ball against two opponents in two field goals. Cohn and Charlton, Oreand forwards, were aggressive but failed to count from the field. MACKSVILLE, 27; MBRIAM, 11 The big Macksville quintet had little trouble in defeating the Merriam five at 11 o'clock this morning, Macksville's forwards were tall and covered the floor well, and as a result, the score at the end of the first half was 17-0 in favor of the Macksville quintet. Merriam staged a big rally at the beginning of the second period, however, and played the big team off to scoring 11 points before Macksville could add a single goal to its total. Smith and Landreth, forwards on the Macksville five, displayed some of the best work seen thus far in the tournament and were the big factors in Macksville's one-sided victory. Thompson, left forward on the Merriam quintet, was the outstanding feature in his team's work but his play was not sufficient to offset the fast offensive of the Macksville five. LARNED, 26; BONNER, 18 Bonnar Springs started out with a jump but could not last and Larned tied the score in a few minutes play. After that the Larned forwards, Grove and Fox, broke away from the Bonner Springs guards and from then on there was no stopping to the western Kansas quintet. At the end of the first half, Larned led by a score of 15 to 7. Fox's long shots and free-throwing featured the game. Sedan nosed out Kansas City by one point, winning 22 to 21 in a sensational come-back in the final minute of play. Sedan was in the lead at the end of the first half, 17 to 12, but Kansas City cut down the lead and was at one time four points ahead, McSpadney shot the winning basket just an instant before the gun. Page contributed to the Kansas City boys, contributing 10 goals. Mencken's four goals in the first half, together with Glenn's eight points, made up the bulk of the winning team's scores. ROSEDALE, 23; HORTON, 18 Rosedaile defeated Horton 23 to 18 in a thrilling spurt at the finish. John Lonborg, brother of Arthur Lonborg of Varsity football and basketball fame, was the star for Horton, and scored over half his team's points. Swarner and Woodstock, at forward, were Rosedaile's stars. Rosedaile led 11 to 6, at the end of the first half, but Horton spurred and took the lead toward the end of the second half, 18 to 17. Two goals by Woodstock finally swapped up the game for Rosedaile. Arkansas City easily won its first game, defeating Lecompton by a 27 to 5 count. Ragged play on the part of Lecompton and the guarding of Arkansas City were chiefly responsible. The Arkansas City team had snatched but their center, Kuhler, was the largest man taking part in the morning's games. He made twelve of his team's points. McCarty, at guard for Arkansas City, shot his first goal of the season in the second half. (Continued on page 3) BULLETIN Scores of games played this afternoon are as follows: Jola, 22; Turner, 15.

Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas The Daily Kansas aim is to preserve the University of Kansas, to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the University represents. To be clean; to be cheerful; to be brave; to be kind; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. FRIADAY, MARCH 22, 1918 Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? A STATE TOURNAMENT Today more than 400 athletes both girls and boys from practically every first class high school in the state are in Lawrence as guests of the University of Kansas at the eleventh annual baketball tournament. They represent every section of Kansas. For many of them it will be their first visit to K. U, and Lawrence. University students—both Greek letter and non-Greek—should do their part in making this first impression a favorable one. The tournament here today and Saturday is more than a basketball battle to decide the best team. It is a huge gathering where the western portion of the state meets the eastern and where just as remote sections meet in healthy athletic competition. Only one team in the boys' and girls' tournament can win yet each year the increasing number of teams enter the tourney. The active interest taken in the contest and the pleasant friendships and meetings which have resulted from coming into contact with strangers from their own state, should meet with every encouragement. This gathering of high school athletes foreshadows the great meeting of these same athletes in the University in the years soon to come. These men are the coming athletes of the University of Kansas. It is a universal gathering of athletes who will later meet in university competition. It points out to the high school athlete the universality of K. U. in athletes and academic work. K. U. welcomes the high school basketball player. BOOKS FOR SOLDIERS Men in service have great need of good reading libraries. The war service administration recognizes this fact and is endeavoring to establish a library in every camp and trench and on board every vessel. Officials at Spooner library are as sisting in this commendable service by providing a place of mobilization for books given from K. U. Every student and faculty member should be able to contribute several books to the cause. As to the kind of books desire there is no limit. No matter what you give be assured it will be appreciated by the boys in khaki. Look over your books today and bring those which you are not using now in your classes to the University library. Suggestions given out by the war administration for your giving are: The war service administration hopes that for every book purchased at least five will be presented to the libraries. It has been done in Eng Give the book you prize the most; not the one you care for least. land; it can be done here. Mobilize your idle books Give your favorite author; the novel that interested you last summer; the volume of poems with a meaning and a message for you. Give the book that causes a pang at parting, like saying good-bye to an old friend. Ten chances to one, it will mean more to some soldier. Give the book that is still alive but which you and your family have outgrown. It is the one which should be passed on to the camp libraries. Give your latest war book; you will probably not read it again. The boy in khaki is waiting for it. Reading it will prepare him for conditions "over there." Give books on technical subjects; there is an insistent call for works on acroplanes, automobiles, gas engines and engineering topics generally. Don't think the boys are interested only in fiction. Write your names and a message on the fly leaf; it will make the bond seem closer. Remember that he gives twice who gives quickly. Hoover ought to be able to do something for Cussin' Tom Smith, who modestly admits that he has volunteered three times for service against Germany, but was rejected for overweight. GROWING NEED FOR NURSES As our casualty lists come in from France, increasing every day, 20, 30, 50, and on, the demand for American nurses to care for the wounded in French hospitals grows accordingly. At present 30,000 nurses will be wanted. Not that many are qualified. For this reason women who have had training as nurse's aids may be taken. The need for nurses in this country will also increase. The Red Cross course in first aid and the class in home nursing are being given to help meet this need. University women who have enough spare time to take up either or both of these courses should do so, if for no personal reason, only because the need for nurses is so great. If in the future it should come to be impossible in many cases of illness to get a nurse then a practical knowledge of the care of the sick will be valuable. Both courses lead to Red Cross certificates. There is room for more women in the first aid class—which was started Wednesday night. Watch for notice of the next meeting and stop an hour to attend it on your way to the library.

(From "The Rhymes of a Red Cross Man.") Robert Service Her nose lifted and wiggled off a spec of violet tale. "I told you I never would dance with that brute again," she added. "I will turtle doves, and there also be turtles." "Mose Musty," he shouted, "and here he comes!" "Should have told him program was full up. It is. I would dance with you all night till the dawn stars burn away!" "But I couldn't help it, Susie. She asked for the trade and what could I do?" "That sound great," he thrilled with it,—"but you know you can't choose your partners at these college dances. I've told you time and again that that man can swing a hundred votes for me. Elections are coming." "Politics—I hate 'em," she almost strangled the words. A hairpin was dislodged and she jabbed it back into place behind her ear. "It will be all over in two weeks, Susie, all over," he said with six precee clocks of his teeth. "Brace up, gir! here they are. Hello there Mose; howdy-do Miss Jennie. You've met Miss Simpson haven't you?" Money saved saves day and night for you. Buy War-Savings Stamps! "Not so much as I'd like to," rumble! Moses as he climbed for the prevalent soul harmony. Her ear-rings rattled under the thunder of his next outburst. "Ahn't his dance volcanic!" He looked up, the night's the just-rightest kind of a night we've had since—Oh, beg pardon! Did that hourt? "No," she lied gracefully and with a reassuring smile. "You hardly jumped on it at all." "Positive?" He was desperately doubling time to alleviate confusion. "I never do that," said Susie with an honest-and-true, hope-to-die look of a faithful fawn. Then the traps stopped and somebody heard the piano. Bill came back to claim his own. "Say, do you mean that," he said eagerly speedily up another notch. other comparison. "Ab-solutely!" she dutifully answered. "You're an awfully good dancer." "We survived," said Bill. "Well, we scout, how is everything? Been home for weeks." "Naw," replied Bill, "not since Christmas. Think I'll go again in about two weeks — just before election." "Oh!" Bill and Susie had a duet. "Iyep, I'm going to keep out of this band." Kind of tired of just having political talk now. I want the real kind like you." "Thanks awfully, Mose," Bill's voice sounded as if it had been through a cream separator. "On with the dance!" This last was in a whisper. A club in the colored school of Bloomington has been established by the Y. W. C. A. cabinet. At the weekly meetings, a talk tending toward the promotion of better living from a physical standpoint is given. "One hundred votes, I think you said," pursed Susan as if she had some catnip. Only this time she was playing with a mouse. CLARIDGE CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS ARROW COLLAR 2%o New Fall. For Best: For Sale Lost Found Help Wanted Situation Wanted Telephone K.

AT BOTH AT BOTH VARSITY and BOWERSOCK Today MARY PICKFORD AS "ARMARILLY OF CLOTHESLINE ALLEY" Her Latest Artcraft Which Is Said to be even Better than "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" ADMISSION 17c At Both Theatres Today and at the Bowersock only Tomorrow UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 22,1918 With Our Visitors "Did you notice that one big building on the campus?" said one high school student to another. "That looks like a penitentiary, you know"—— One high school visitor mistook the tower used for pouring concrete for the new wing of the Administration Building into the forms for a wireless station. Members of the Rosedale team wore bright green jerseys and three of the players have bright red hair. John Lonborg, who starred as right forward on the Horton team this morning, is a brother of Arthur Lonborg, the star end on the Varsity football team this year. It is noticeable that the players on the teams this year are of much smaller stature than those who attended last year. One girl was heard to remark this morning: "I'd like to stay at a sorority house but you know I have a date with Bill tonight and they are so strict about such things at those places." A young man from Macksville was heard to remark, "Well K. U. doesn't think much of its grass. There's a cut-off everywhere. Now at home we go around." When the whistle was blown at the close of the Rosedale-Horton game this morning, a girl who had spent a strenuous half hour cheering for Rosedale remarked, "Well, if I had to go through with that once more I'd be dead." A girl looked at Fowler Shops and then asked, "Is that the pumping station?" The feminine supply of adjectives is enormous. One said: "We have won two games today. Isn't that larkish?" One girl who is evidently acquainted with the real Oreal breezes said, "Well, if you call this windy, you should have been here last year." Bugs Spend Winter Days In Protection From Cold They Hide Under Boards, Boxes and Stones—Plentiful As Ever in Spring Almost the whole of the bug world spends its winter months under boards, boxes and stones, or in the ground and are little affected by the cold winter winds, according to Prof. S. J. Hunter of the department of entomology. The canker worm is a good example. The winter months are spent in a pupal stage in the ground and this spring there are practically as many canker worms as there were last although the weather was much more severe. The green bug, however, which is so destructive to wheat, is more susceptible to the cold than most crops. It spends the winter at the base of the wheat stalk which does not afford much protection. Numbers of insects are killed in the spring as a result of the early warm spells which bring them out of their winter quarters only to be frozen by he return of winter.

Huns, Leaving Wounded In Hasty Retreat, Stop To Wreck French Homes Lieutenant Richer Tells Students of German Kultur in Retreat His Regiment at Verdun tion Perfect Morale to Win Must be Backed by Ammuni- "There was one thing we noticed about the retreating Germans," said Lieut. E. J. Richer of the French army, who spoke to University students Friday afternoon in Fraser Hall. "Although their haste to get away was so great they did not have time to take care of their wounded but left them to die, they had time to make a comeback that was once beautiful had been demolished even to the most trifling thing." Lieutenant Richer had finished his military training and had been graduated from a university when war broke out. He entered the army as a sergeant and was soon advanced to lieutenant. The 305th regiment of which he is a member, was decorated after fighting at Verdun. "I could ask no better fate than to stay in Kansas with the splendid Kansas boys I am allowed to instruct. I don't want to be mentally and morally as well." "You can have absolutely perfect morale, but unless you have some ammunition you cannot kill the enemy. This is where the civilians can do their part. They can help furnish the material." Leutenant Richer in speaking of "material and morale," said they learned at Verdun that material was absolutely essential. Many people were accustomed to the less of material was necessary when the morale of the army was high. Argonia Wins Trophy In Debating League, Defeating Meridin Subjects Suggested for Next Year's Series of Debates There are eight different congressional debating districts in the state and Argonia represented the eighth. Meriden was winner of the first district and had eliminated the other district winners, before the final debate last Friday. Members of the winning team were Donald Nicholson, Charlie Colin, and Clifford Shankland. Lee Becker, Raymond Gerber, and Myrl Becker were on the Meriden team. The judges were Prof. B. F. Moore, Prof. A. J. Boynton, and Prof. R. E. Carter. Argonia won the state championship ship debate from Meriden High School, Friday night, in the Little Theatre, Green Hall, by a decision of 2 to 1. The subject of the debate was: That the United States should prohibit transgender students from shipping subsidies. Argonia took the negative and won a silver loving cup. The executive committee of the Kansas High School Debating League mailed a list of fourteen tentative suggestion for debate questions for the year, 1918-19, yesterday, to the various high schools represented in the league. These lists are to be returned to the committee with the corresponding preferences indicated, and the committee will then select next year's question from the three which are in the majority.

Send the Daily Kansan to some First Home Nursing Class to Meet Tuesday UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 25, 1918. NUMBER 116 The Red Cross class in Home Nursing will hold its first meeting on Tuesday evening, March 26, at 7 o'clock in Westminster Hall. The course will be given by Miss Mary Height, superintendent of the University Hospital, and will be followed by an examination for a Red Cross certificate. Enrollment in the class is limited to twenty, and only a few places remain open. Application for enrollment should be made to Miss Margaret Lynn. The War Here and Over There The German drive which began Friday is steadily increasing in violence. On most sectors the British are aparently holding their own, but the enemy have occupied the town of Chauny, the gateway to Paris, and, at latest reports, were pressing their advantage. The British have retreated nine miles, and will make a stand at the Somme. THE DRIVE THE AMERICAN RESERVES It is reported that the British third and fourth armies and the Franco-American reserves have been beaten and repulsed with heaviest losses on the line from Bapaume to Bouche-eveses. The ten-inch shells which fell at intervals of twelve minutes without disturbing the debout observance of Palm Sunday in Paris came from two "monster" guns in the St. Gobain forest, seventy-six miles from the city and just behind the German lines. Ordnance experts on both sides of the Atlantic still minimize the importance of the new weapon. Since the war began no German offensive has started but in its initial impetuosity and concentrated force seemed to succeed. It was so with the original drive on Paris until the cheat at the Marne, in the great sweep against Russia in 1915, in the battle of Verdun in February-March 1916, and in the Italian theater last fall. Going back over the record of German victories on a great scale has begun with every indication of victory, and yet every one has ended in failure—Topoika Daily Capital. CONSOLATION To conserve material necessary in war and used in the manufacture of paints, leading paint-markers of the country have cut their products from 100 shades to 32 colors for the duration of war. The official organ of the American sugar producers has issued an estimate of the world's sugar crop for 1917-18. The total is 18,637,700 tons or a decrease of 753,800 tons from that of last year. The Central Powers are expected to turn out a million tons less than they did last year. Russia has fallen off tremendously. Outside of Europe there has been a remarkable increase in production. The figures indicate an 'abundant supply of sugar for all of the Allied nations, for nearly a million and a half tons from last year's crop held over in the Far East on account of lack of transportation may be available in addition to the new production. ABOUT SUGAR The Fort Riley medical training camp is to be discontinued in a few months and the instructors sent to Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. It is probably true that Trotzky's resignation was forced. There being nothing more to surrender, his occupation was gone—Brooklyn Eagle. The British admiralty has made public figures showing that allied and neutral shipping had lost l12,877,537 tons from submarines and other causes up to January 1, and had turned out 6,696,275 tons. The United States will have more airplanes by the last of August than double the number in the German, French and British air fleets. The fixing of prices by the government was bitterly assaulted in the Senate on the motion of Senator Gore to increase the price of wheat to $2.50 a bushel. Government price fixing was denounced as interfering with natural laws and hindering production. Carol Martin to Head Tentative Organization Of Woman's Land Army Purpose is to Prepare Women For Farm Work Whenever Needed Carol Martin, c19, has been chosen general chairman of the Women's Land Army of the University of Kansas. The secretary is Gussie Gaskell, and the executive committee, which will eventually consist of three university women, so far as it has been so, is Erma Smith and Frances Ellis. The purpose of the University Woman's Land Army is not to usurp the places of men who have entered to war, but to organize the university women into a volunteer standing army ready to be leaders in the counties in which there is need for women to take care of meh who have entered the service. While the chairman and secretary will keep the county organizations in touch with the work of other states, a chairman from each county, who is to be county unit leader, will be a part of the university organization, and will organize the women of the county. "The K. U. organization will cooperate with and study the methods of similar leagues outside the state," said Dr. Ida H. Hyde, who started the movement here. "The work is to constructed on a strictly practical basis." The plan is not to hurry into the field before the time comes, but to mold public opinion and prepare places for the young women by the time the need for light farm labor and work of such nature arises. Leave Books for Army At City or K.U. Library Camps Send Out Call for More Reading Matter - Wanted About a thousand books for the soldiers had been received by the Lawrence City library by this morning. In addition nearly two hundred have been donated through the city high school and ten through the University. More books are expected before the shipment is to be made. "Something better to read than a catalogue sent out by a mail order house," is the request that comes from the soldiers and sailors in camp, overseas and from those going over. For every man in service there ought to be a book in service, is the purposeful plea the American Library Association is making to meet this request. The department of architecture sent eight more drawings to New York today to be entered in the two classes of competition at the Beaux Arts Institute. The students worked several nights and early this morning to finish the drawings by this morning. "Although the station deposit for Lawrence is the town library," said Miss Carrie Watson today, "We will be glad to accept any books left here. We will boxed up by the one hundred and sent to the Red Cress to be distributed." Any kind of a book is desired so long as it is good reading, but poetry and fiction are probably the most popular with the men in the service. Periodicals, too, are wanted by the men. There is no time limit to the contribution of books for the soldiers. They will be accepted later on as well as now, although the demand for them is especially urgent at present. The eight drawings were entered in two classes of competition. Three are designs for a memorial library and art gallery. Five are designs for a Roman circular shelter. This makes sixteen K. U. designs sent to the Beaux Arts, and the department has received six mentions and one first mention from the eight already judged. The eight drawings sent today will be judged next month. Eight More Drawings Sent to Art Contest For one month, the month of January, the output of surrical dressings for the United States was 14,738,315; of hospital garments it was 800,980; of hospital supplies, 620,848. There were 1,416,473 articles made for the soldiers, totaling 17,576,652. Candidates Appearing For W. S.G.A. Offices; Election Is On April 5 Lucene Spencer Will Run for President—Representatives May Have Competition The first petitions for candidates for the executive council of the Woman's Student Government Association appeared this morning. The elections for officers will be held Friday, April 5. The only candidates who have announced for officers are: For president, Lucene Spencer; for vice-president, Mary Smith; for secretary, Katherine Fulkerson; and for treasurer, Irene Thien. No petition for vice-president of the School of Fine Arts has appeared vet. Carol Martin and Helen Peffer will run for senior representative. Competition for sophomore and junior class representatives will be keen. Frances Flynn, Dorothea Engle and Katherine Glendennen have announced their candidacy for sophomore representative. Elections for class representatives will be held April 12, one week after election for officers. Every woman in the University is entitled to vote for the officer, but only members of the classes for the class representatives. On the junior ticket Dorothy Dawson is the only candidate so far, but indications are that one or two others may enter the race. Kansas and Missouri Debating Teams Meet Next Thursday Night The Kansas-Missouri debate will be held in Fraser chamber, Thursday night, March 28. The subject for the debate is "Resolved, that the terms of settlement of this war should include the consent of the League to Enforce Peace." Kansas Takes Affirmative—Set tement of War to Include League to Enforce Peace Kansas has the affirmative side of the question, and will be represented by Harold R. Hall, Deane W. Malot, or George Blake. Missouri's negative team is made of Frank M. Lowe, team Harwurtz, and Floyd B. Oebar. The Kansas team has been at work for some time under the leadership of Prof. T. Hill, of the depart- ment, the speaking, who is coach- ing the work. The debate is open to the public at a charge of twenty-five cents. Student tickets admit. The judges have not yet been selected. Prof. W. S. Hunter Wins Promotion to Captaincy University Psychologist is Making Tests of Soldiers at Chickamauga, Ga. W. S. Hunter, professor of psychology at the University, who is now on leave of absence as a psychologist in the army, has been promoted from the rank of first lieutenant to that of captain, says a letter received at Dean Templin's office. Captain Hunter is now stationed at Camp Greenleaf, Chickamauga Park, Georgia, where he has been making psychological tests of the men in the camp. He writes that nearly 900 soldiers were treated in two days. The work at Camp Greenleaf is almost finished and Captain Hunter expects to be sent to some other camp soon. Eliza Is Nearly Here Tickets Go On Sale The K. U. Dramatic Club will give the play, "Eliza Comes To Stay," Wednesday night in Fraternal Aid Hall, for the benefit of the Permanent Income Amendment. Tickets will go on sale Tuesday. The play is a comedy, and promises to be fascinating. Its plot brings the facts of the amendment before the students of the University. The cast is practicing daily for the production. The proceeds will be used to inform the voters of Kansas of the provisions of the amendment, which, if adopted, will be of direct advantage to University. Make 1700 Surgical Dressings Last Week More surgical dressings were made by the women of the University last week than have been made any week since the work has started. The total number of dressings made was 1700, which is 200 more than any other week's record. Between twenty-five and thirty women have worked every day some spending only an hour and others working several hours. The room is open every afternoon but Wednesday and any woman may work who has provided herself with an apron, scissors and a six inch ruler. Plain Tales From The Hil' The Plaint Tale of a former editor of this column. "I've climbed the heights of Fraser And sounded Potter Lake, For kit of corn and sturti For bits of news and stories I vainly scrape and rake. To fill the Kansan space. I vainly scrape and rake. In fact, I think I've wandered About most every place In search of silly gossip So don't be shocked to see me act Most any kind of caper, Remember I am reporting W. F. Beck, editor of the Holton Recorder, accounted for the fact that he was late in arriving to speak to the class in Advertising last Friday because he stood on the corner for fifteen minutes waiting patiently for any street cars which he designated as "your tractor machine system." Some of these worn out cars that are being driven on the Hill by students and professors would make a valuable contribution to the Salvage Box. And blame it on the paper." An awful mistake has been made in the selection of the Kansas Beauties according to Prof. John Frazier of the department of drawing. Professor Frazier, to be sure, is a judge of beauty and should know all about such things. At any rate he thinks that the judges have terribly poor judgment if one of the eight, who happens to be in his class, is a sample of beauty. The only question that I can see in this so-called Beauty," said the professor, "is that she is wonderfully skilled in the art of chewing gum." Venturesome; "Let's go out to Jess Williams' place and get him to show us." Timid: "No. One round would be too much for me." The tall frame tower used for distributing the concrete in the construction of the west wing of the Administration Building has been the subject of much inquiry from visitors. It has been taken for a wireless tower, a diving platform, and mine shaft. The latest was heard Saturday when a high school boy from the southern part of the state asked if the University was drilling for oil. While assisting the freshmen carrying in the furniture which had been placed out of doors during a recent fraternity party, James Garnett Lyne, c20, the notorious "Piper Heidleck" masticator of the Pi U's, said, "Freshmen! oogg ulp (spit) uln, don't get the gobbelon." Sociology professor to class, "I wonder why it is that the Board of Health in making its reports puts the per cent of marriages among the diseases." A COED'S PLEA a CODING PLACE We can do everything some of the time And some things all of the time But we can't do everything ALL of them. Some of our faculty members were more noted before they came to K. U. than they are now. One professor, according to his own confession before his class this morning, said that at the time he received his bachelor's degree he had two means of livelihood open to him. One was the profession of a clerical assistant with the rank of fer from a theatrical agency to go on the stage at fifty dollars a week as a dancing partner to one of the stars of the day. the time.

Tournament Ended 38-35 Chanute Takes Girls' Honor Rosedale Sextet Loses in Last Game by a Score of 35 to 32 Two distinct surprises were sprung in the finals of the Eleventh Annual State High School basketball tournament in Robinson Gymnasium Saturday night, when the Arkansas City quintet defeated the Newton five, winners of the state championship, and the 35-35 score and the Chanute girls team won from Rosedale, the favorites in girls' tournaments, 35-32. The Newton-Arkansas City contest was one of the fastest high school games ever played on the Robinson floor. Arkansas City started out in whirlwind and soon jumped into a good lead, but last work by the Newton forwards, Dotson and Miller, cut down the margin and the score stood 13-11 in favor of Newton at the end of the season. Poor field goals by Gardner and Hinton of Arkansas City put that quintet in the lead in the second period and the score was 20-18 for Arkansas City when the half ended. A RALLY WON THE GAME Hinton continued his sensational goal shooting in the third quarter and Arkansas City began to pile up a big lead, having a 10-point margin when the fourth quarter began. The Dotson-Miller-Rodgers combination, using a series of short, fast passes, worked the ball into Arkansas City territory time after time in the last quarter and made it until only three points separated the two teams. Arkansas City rallied and the excellent defensive work of McCarty and Curtis stopped the Newton attack and won the game. The Chanute victory in the girls' finals was a complete surprise to basketball followers, who picked Rosedale to win easily. The first half ended with Rosedale in the lead but Chanute came to the front after the last period was half over, and held a small margin until the final whistle. Cora Shin, who had been coached by Cora Shin, who was graduated from the University last June and was one of the best women athletes in school in 1916 and 1917. In the boys semi-finals, played Saturday afternoon, Newton had little trouble defeating Sedan, 37-20, although the Sedan five put up a fast game the first ten minutes of play. In the other semi-final contest, Arkansas City nosed out Winfield after thirty minutes of fast basketball, 20-17. Arkansas City jumped into the lead at the beginning of the game, and although Winfield played hard, Arkansas City was never overtaken. Reif, star Winfield forward, was off form and failed to shoot a single basket after averaging ten points in the three other games he played in the tournament. Cairns, at center, was the mainstay of the Winfield five, breaking up the Arkansas City plays time and again and scoring eleven of his team's seventen points. Gardner, forward, was the mainstay of the Arkansas City quintet, counting twelve points from the field. WINFIELD SHOWED UP WELL Iola was eliminated by Winfield in the third round Saturday morning, 23-11, Arkansas City swamped the big Macksville vittie by a count 34-4, Sedon won the right to enter the semi-finals by defeating McPherson, 29-24, and Newton eliminated Emporia, 39-17. Winfield easily demonstrated its superiority over Iola in every department of the game and Cairns and Reif were the main point getters for the Winfield aggregation. Bollinger, at guard, and Olliver, forward, played best for Iola. Macksville could do nothing against the stonewall defense presented by McCarty and Curtis, Arkansas City guards. Gardner and Kahler scored almost at will for Arkansas City. Sedan came from behind in the game with McPherson and nosed out the McPherson quintet, led by Staplin, a fast forward, after having the small end of the score during the greater part of the game. McSpadden starred for Sedan.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the university and then merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the University has in place, to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be respectful; to seek problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. MONDAY, MARCH 25, 1918. Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? IN QUEST OF A SHAKESPEARE Within the bounds of the journalistic domain there is prevalent one conviction. This conviction is that there is poetry circulating free in the spring air. Ever since the first spring, down to the present, through all the intervening years the season has brought forth its Homers and Walt Masons to begin potting away at the first dandelions. When the sap begins to climb in the red bud tree the sap of romance rises from the human heart to the human head and lo! spring, gentle spring, is here indeed. Mankind accordingly suffers a plague of poets. Individuals staid or frisky, and not otherwise guilty are moved to madness and verse. They carol recklessly about gambling lambs and sheep sorrel greens, city lights and June nights, stout heart jonquils and love's true dream. Maiden ladies of the elderly stage commit various versions of the Baby's Prayer to paper, while the seasoned poet lilies a few lines of dolorous dirge about all the Spring Song's having been sung. When the icy hearted editor cannot see his way clear to parting with any shekels for even one throb and returns them all, the maiden of many years winds hers with pale blue ribbon and lays it away in the family chest and the poet professional consigns his to the flames and tries again. The Daily Kansan is offering a prize for the best poem written by any student, in the hope of bringing to light a few genuine poetic jewels from the victims of spring fever. Rules of the contest will be announced later and the poems will be printed on this page. All incognito versifiers are urged to round out those lines scribbled on the back of an envelope and fare forth to the Kansan office with them. You may win the prize, who knows? NINETY-TWO CENTS AN HOUR NINETY-TWO CENTS AN HOUR the wasting of time in which the University of Kansas student often cheerfully indulges, costs on an average ninety-two cents an hour. Figured in whatever purports to be a fair method of computation, the result is the same: every time a student cuts a class he does nothing more nor less sensational than the throwing of a dollar bill to the Kansas wind. Dividing the cost of the year's schooling by the number of class recitations gives the approximate cost per recitation. The average cost of a year on Mt. Oread is about $500. This divided by 540, the number of recitations in a year, gives a trifle more than ninety-two cents for each hour in the class room. This cost is charged to the recitation, for it is assumed that the only reason the student comes to the University to study instead of staying at home is to get the advantage of personal contact with teachers, as well as the further advantages of the classroom and laboratory. Acquiring knowledge is a business proposition. It can result in either a financial or intellectual failure or both if the student is not careful. Being careful means to watch the leaks. The habit of cutting classes is the most conspicuous leak. More than a dollar is spoiled every time an absence is recorded. Useful knowledge is above cash price. A recitation which is not attended is one of the poorest investments, yet many a poor student is deluded over and over again—cheerfully deluded. But he is happy in his ignorance. The student may get his credit at the end of the semester, but he has not got the knowledge. And it is knowledge he has come to buy, not credits. The credit which he is given should stand for the student's best effort. If the quality of the work for which the credit is a measure, is not the best of which the student is capable, he has not realized fully on his investment. Every student should figure for himself the cost of cutting a class. It is only when the cost is realized that dollars will remain in pocketbooks, and students in the classroom. It is only when the student is confronted with the cost of his act that his wasting of time will cease to be cheerful. The little problem in grammar-school arithmetic might well be the means of relieving the University from the burden of grammar-school discipline. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT She called up at the eleventh hour and broke her date. Her explanation sounded thin, but he could only accept it with good grace. It was then, however, too late to invite anyone else, so he got along as best he could partnerless. To her it was a little thing, but it should have counted.

Teacher had just finished reading the Charge of the Light Brigade. "It is high time the Crown Prince were married," said the emperor of Hindu Kush. "But where is the perfect-tempered woman who alone is fit to bear eugeni successors to the throne?" A Good Guess A BOLSHEVIK FABLE "Maiesty, I know her; come with me," said the Prime Minister, who had taken a correspondence course in after-dinner speaking and thought quickly on his feet. So they put on a couple of the famous Hebrides cloaks which render the wearer invisible and are guaranteed rainproof and immediately they stood in the white enamelled living room of a handsome suburban home, put together by unskilled day labor out of ready-made sections shipped by fast express from Spokane. Now, as they opened the door to enter, the storm came in behind them and made a huge pool on the floor. The following from the pen of Misa Helen Rhoda Hoopes, of the department of English, has appeared in the Kansas City Star: POET'S CORNER A Complaint The very flowers we knew before; The tulips by the kitchen door, What is there new to write of spring? The selfname birds are caroling; The phoebe's flute, the chitter-chee of flicker or of chickadee; The robin's pipe, and, over all, The mellow whistle of the cardinal- All these are old. There's not a thing a poet now can say of spring. The violets brought from yonder hills. The purple shaft of hyacinth Uplifting from its low green Spring does not even change her name: All these are old. One must not pour Out verse about them, any, more. Her bonny face remains the same. But wait—a chance!—one never Her bonny face remains the same. To tell the truth about the minx; Her fickness, her cold disain Of gardens labored o'er in vain— All this is new. We grant the claim; But, surely, spring is not to blame. Thereupon the elder of the two women whom our travellers discovered in the room broke into pitiful lamentation, but her daughter only laughed merrily and cried: "Mother, isn't it lucky the floor is Croscimeted? Tell Mandy to run a mop over it and it will be as good as ever." "Is it she? " the Emperor whispered hoarsely, like a secret diplomat. "It is, sire; but wait." At the mention of her name, Mandy, who had just entered the dining-room with a steaming soup-tureen, started suddenly and let the bowl crash to the ground. “Oh, dear!” cried the old body, but the girl only clapped her hands with delight. "How fortunate we have Crosby's Coiffah Cubes in the house, mother," she beamed. "Half a cube to a cup of hot water and serve." "There's a ten-cent bottle of Stickeen's Cement in the closet. You won't be able to tell the difference yourself." "But my Sheffield bowl," protested the old woman. The girl hummed a bar from "Madama Butterfly." "An admirable mate," said the Emperor. "The throne will be safe." But in his admiration he forgot his invisibility. The girl tripped over his foot, stumped against a chair and only with difficulty kept her balance. "But, mother," trilled the girl, and the room was alight with her smile, "these are the Tearless. I send them back to the factory and get a perfectly new pair." "Mabel," cried the unhappy mother "you have ripped their stocking, and you know what they are now at the store." "We have found her. Let us go and apprise the Crown Prince of his good fortune. And what shall be your reward, Mulligatwney Khan?" "Sire," said the Prime Minister, "I will ask only that when you write you will kindly mention Jimpson's Weekly." The Emperor seized the Prime Minister by the arm. His face was radiant. But before the wedding arrangements were completed the Crown Prince eloped with a lady from the chorus. —New York Evening Post.

Advertising—an investment and not an expense! Fred Rigby Business Manager MARCH 25, 1918 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Wilson Has Occupied Museum Since 1912 The smiling countenance of President Woodrow Wilson 'is beaming down on K. U, these days. No one knows just when he came to us. A student loltering in the Museum recently discovered that K. U._has a great stone face, as clearly defined as the face which was so important in Hawthorne's story. When the assistant curator of the museum was called to see the face he discovered it had the_features of the president. The Museum was built in 1902 and the accidental arrangement of the face was never discovered in all these years. If you wish to see the face go to the natural history display room, follow the crack mark in the concrete floor north until you face the glass partition. Look up the left, and you will see the reflection of the rocks in the pier that holds up the steel supports to the roof, giving a perfect representation of the features of Woodrow Wilson. The peculiarly Wilson jaw, the high cheek bones, and the large nose are all there. The dark red color of the rocks gives the tan color of the complexion. The characteristic smile which has won the hearts of the American people during-the-trying times since the war started in 1914 is there, too. The presence of this face will strengthen the feeling of patriotism on the Hill. Don and Professor Loud Step Out By the Way Alpha Delta Pi gave a week-end rush party Saturday for several girls on the Atchison basketball team. Don Davis, business manager of the 1918 Jayhawker, and Prof. Grover Lou of the department of journalism gave a luncheon at the Hotel Muelebach Saturday noon for the eight unknown beauties who were successful in the Jayhawker contest.

Prof. Startles Chummy Star Gazers The "comfy" porch swing swayed gently in the balmy evening air. Fair Damsel, eager for adventure; Fair Hero, who just could not enjoy the wonderful moonlight alone; and Fair Damsel's Roommate were silent under the spell of the night. Across a space of lawn, in the home of Dignified Professor there were signs of mysterious merriment. Automobiles were clustered about the driveway. From behind the closed blinds came laughter and song. Fair Damsel and her friends whispered speculations as to the cause of the festivities. Was Professor having a party? In mid-week? From the house of mih came more confusion. Voices could be heard in jelly chatter. The music became louder. Then, audently, the door opened, and Dignified Professor himself slipped softly upon the porch. "He peered questioningly into the night, this way and that, then proscaching the porch pill into his up sign of a some sort and as quickly disappeared within the house. "What can it be?" whispered Fair Hair. "I'll see," said Fair Damsel's Roommate. "What do you suppose is up?" eoebed Fdamsel. Silently she glided across the lawn until she stood before the placard. An exclamation of wonder almost escaped her, but she compressed her lips. "I Have Found the most Cunning Little Creation—" Middinary Letter says Betsy Drew. THIS warm Spring weather has given me the spring hat fever, THIS warm Spring weather ha given me the spring hat fever, so this afternoon I went down town keen to find an Easter Bonnet. And I have found the most cunning little creation you ever could imagine. It is a jaunty little shape of black straw with two little lacquered wings laid flat on the top of the crown. Perhaps so much dark sounds dull (the milliners all tell me that black is "the proper thing" this Spring) but a little bit of bright green ribbon gives just that adorable touch which adds life to the whole creation. There were so many other Spring hats where I got mine that I had a hard time choosing, but I am tickled to death with my selection.

The Missouri Valley Conference meet is scheduled for May 25 at Ames, but may not be held there this year as the juniors and seniors at Ames will be out on April 19 because of the shortened semester. Ames has asked that the date of the meet be moved up, the place for holding the meet changed, or that they be allowed to attend the meet, which will be graduates at the time of the meet. The last plan has been favorably passed upon by some schools in the valley. Missouri refused to take the meet when asked to do so by Ames. The annual Drake Relay Games will be held at Drake, April 20. K. U. will迎合 this meet. The Kansas-Nebraska dual meet will be held at Lawrence, May 18, but Coach W. S. Jackson will be to choreate because of the High School Invitation meeting put on by the University on that date. SPORT BEAMS The little Sedan team was easily the sensation of the tournament. The blue and white quintet, picked to be eliminated in the first round, nosed out both Kansas City and Wichita by one point margin, came from behind in the last few minutes of play and defeated McPherson and gave Newton a scare in the first half of the semi-finals. John Lonborg, brother of "Dutch" Lonborg, All-Missouri Valley last year, was the power of the Horton five. John scored over half of his team's points in its only game, that against Rosedale, and played an excellent all-around game. McCarty of Arkansas City and Rodgers of Newton, both guards, were the only players to be removed from a game because of personal fouls during the tournament. Benfer, of Newton, although playing the position of jumping center on the Newton five, always fell back to guard as soon as the ball was tipped and Rodgers, a guard, came forward and assisted Dotson and Miller in piling up the points.

In the second period Newton started an attack in the second period which the Emporions were unable to withstand. Iola defeated Linwood, 1-11, in the second round Friday afternoon, while Winfield swamped Baldwin, 34-5. Other games in the second round resulted as follows: Macksville, 25, Rosedale 21; Arkansas City 59, Argentine 4; Sedan 19, Wichita 18, McPherson 20, Larned 10; Newton 28, Parsons 14; and Emporia 12, Hays 9. The outstanding feature of the second round was the defeat of Wichita, supposedly at least good to last until the semi-finals, by the little Saan five in extra minute, blaflay. The score at the end of the regular period was a tie at 16 all, and Saan came back in the playoff with the punch that won the contest. R.

In the semi-finals in the girls' tournament, Chanute defeated Baldwin and Rosedale romped off with an easy victory over Turner. Chanute had already eliminated Burlington, 28-15, and Rosedale had defeated the Atchison sextet, 20-11.

Paper That Prints News Lays Groundwork For Success In Advertising Roy Bailey, Manager of Salina Journal, Speaks to Journalism Classes Today UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 26, 1918. Women Are Good Reporters Requirements of Reporter Are Loyalty to Paper and Interests of Community "Print the news," said Roy Bailey, manager of the Salina Evening Journal, in speaking before journalism classes of the University this morning. "In order to get circulation, it is necessary for a newspaper to give its readers timely happenings, and with a large circulation, the advertising necessary for the upkeep of the paper can be secured. "A steady flux of advertising is important in managing a newspaper NUMBER 117. managing a newspaper. Where an unusual amount of advertising copy comes in on one day, the cost of the extra force needed to set it up is too high proportionately for economy." Women may make as good reporters as men, according to Mr. Bailey, but no set distinction can be made, as the ability of the reporter depends on the individual. He advised women to work on a small town paper where they are fitted for the work and where the work is fitted for them. Only those women, he said, who specialize on one line of newspaper writing should go into metropolitan journalism. The Salina Journal employs several women in reporting, advertising, and circulation. "Curiosity is the greatest asset a reporter can have," said Mr. Bailey. "The requirements of a newspaper reporter are absolute accuracy, loyalty to the paper, and a feeling of responsibility to the best interests of the community. Get "scoped" rather than write a story by guess. "Important editorials are put on the front page of the Salina Journal, where they will be more widely read. I do not believe in the paragraph editorials of a humorous nature as the chief aim of the editorial page, but prefer serious topics. An editor can not only publish these pages, but port one definite political party, he at least supports one candidate, either for his principles, or for the man. “In reading reporters' copy, care should be taken that the stories are fair to both sides, accurate, and honest. Head writing is an art; the important facts of the story must be told in the headlines in a limited space. Headlines sell the large town newspapers, but in small town papers where there are few or no street sales, the heads should go to make the paper a well-appearing sheet. In many papers, too much space is under these papers would get large enough type for heads if the world should suddenly come to an end. They play up the heads of minor stories and leave no room for showing the importance of vital happenings.” Mr. Bailey has been in newspaper work all his life, and has gained his knowledge of journalism by experience and practice. He says, however, that schools of journalism give a reporter many advantages when he gets into active editorial writing. Hahward Persons to Try Again for Hahward Club The budding Hahvard Club, which was to have flowered last Friday night into a sweet organization of faculty persons who have attended Hahvard, failed to but because none of the Hahvard guys in the faculty showed up. Another effort will be made to assemble them and notices in verse after the style of Browning's "Meeting" will be sent each Hahvard person in the faculty. Common newspaper announcement of the meeting that was to have been held Friday was made, but none of the Hahvard persons saw it, or seeing, did not understand, it being in common newspaper diction and not at all in the manner of Browning. The meeting now is to be Wednesday night at 7:30 o'clock at the University Club. Send the Daily Kansan Home. The Sociology Club will meet Wednesday night in Room 4, Green Hall, at 7 o'clock. Roy E. Burt will talk on "Some Faults of Social Workers." E. D. Teetor to Talk On Kitchen Problems The new Food Administration orders greatly restoring the use of wheat flour will be taken up in the regular food conservation lecture for women by Mrs. E. E. D. Teetor, at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon in Fraser Chapel. The lecture will be designed particularly as a message for home, so that women students may carry home with them practical methods of working out the bothersome kitchen problems that confront the patriotic housewife trying to do her bit in helping win the war. The War Here and Over There THE DRIVE GOES ON The Germans report the storming of Baphan's office with official report says nothing concerning the loss of this important town. Paris is still under fire, but the citizens pay little attention to the bombardment. It is possible that the Germans may be quitfanked by the French who are co-operating with the British south of St. Quentin. The British at home are preparing to replace each man and gun lost in the great struggle in France with a new gun and a new man. The Germans taking part in the great drive are wearing new uniforms. "Got on their best clothes for a visit to Paris," commented one of our generals. Well, maybe. Real Admiral Robert E. Peary, as chairman of the national aerial coast patrol commission, is endeavoring to awaken the country to the need for adequate coast defense against attacks from German U-boats and airplanes. General Pershing has cabled the war department that the only American troops in action with the British forces are two regiments of railroad engineers. Military men in Washington believe that the Germans are losing 100,000 men a day on the western front. WHAT YOUR LIBERTY BOND WILL DO A $100 bond will clothe a soldier or feed a soldier for eight months, or will purchase five rifles. A $100 bond and a $50 bond will clothe and equip an infantry soldier for service overseas, or feed a soldier for a year. Two $100 bonds will buy a horse for the cavalry or the artillery. Four $100 bonds will buy an X-ray outfit. Two new decorations have been created by the war department for those who distinguish themselves in the war. The decorations are the Distinguished Service Cross and the Distinguished Service Medal, abbreviated into D. S. C. and D. S. M. They are awarded for service which does not quite merit the Medal of Honor, which is given only in cases where the deed of heroism is "outside the line of duty." The aviators of the signal corps of the United States army in training schools are averaging about 1,700 hours if flying a day, which makes a distance of about 102,000 miles flown each day. This is equal to four trips around the earth. Plans are being made for a service flag with a star for each native Kansa man who has enlisted for the war. The Native Daughters of Kansas are going to put this idea into actuality. The flag is being designed by George M. Stoen, a native son. The design is to be the state seal, and the stars honoring the state's soldier sons will be the stars in the sky above the plowman and his prairie home. Fabrics for bandages have become so scarce in England and France that architects and engineers have been asked to turn in obsolete drawings mounted on calco and linen for which they had been formerly used the fabric "when washed, cleaned and sterilized are most suitable for surgical work." THE STATE SERVICE FLAG Lieut. Roy Wheeler, m'15, stopped in Lawrence yesterday for a short visit on his way to Battle Creek, Mich., where he has been transferred from Fort Riley.

Dains, professor of chemistry, will give a series of lectures at Colorado University, Boulder, Thursday and Friday. He will speak before an association of teachers, Sigma Xi, and other university organizations on various phases of chemistry. Devout Religious Observance Characteristic of the French Easter The Easter celebration the American boys in France will see this year will not be very different from the same observances over here according to Dr. D, H. Derry who has lived in France. "As a large part of the French people are Catholics, the Easter celebration over there is a religious ceremony particularly." Spring Runoffs For Women After the Easter holidays the swimming pool will be open to the women who expect to enter the swimming meet every day, except Friday, at 4 o'clock. The first practise for indoor baseball will be held outdoors today in South Field. All women who expect to go out for baseball should notify Coach Pratt immediately, as she is beginning to arrange for class games. "There are various processions during Holy Week which represent the happenings in the last week of Christ's lfe. The whole village takes part even to the smallest children. And it is all done with a deep reverence and a feeling for the meaning of the symbols used." Dr. Derry said the French children believe in the Easter rabbit that brings such brightly colored eggs to delight them. After the prayers are over, the fasting is over, but the littlest one will go look for the hidden treasures. Spring Athletics For Women "In all the churches that are left there will probably be the lilies and candles as decorations. The Sammies will see France at Easter time, and that will be a beautiful sight." Another Red Cross Drive The Red Cross will make a big spring drive for funds about the middle of May. Plans for the campaign at K.U. are in the hands of Prof. G. C. Shaad and Prof. U. G. Mitchell. No definite announcement of their plans has yet been made. The surgical dressings committee will help with this campaign. Another Red Cross Drive Print Special Military Edition of Daily Kansan Doctor Humble Urges Plan to Commemorate America's Entry Into War A special military edition of The Daily Kansan and any other appropriate observation of the first anniversary of America's entry into the war, April 6, was suggested today by Dr. H. W. Humble of the Law School. Doctor Humble proposed to print in the military edition all information obtainable from the University of Kansas now that the university send a copy of the name each man. "It would be like a message from home, almost like a letter," declared Doctor Humble, "for it really would be the University writing to its sons at the front, in training camp or in other war work. There are few things the boys at the front and in camp life like better than letters from home. If you were going to not come from individuals for it would contain little personal bits from all of us, those who are here on the Hill and those who have gone." "It would be encouraging to any man away from home to get a special message from the old school, to know that those of us who have to stay behind are 'pulling' for the 'bunch' at the front. Fancy the Daily Kansan being opened in a billet somewhere near Toul or Nancy and how the K. U. boy who got it would smile and smile. It's another little thing worth while — let's get it to "it"." May Have Women's Baseball Coach Hazlert Pratt hopes to complete plans before Easter vacation for the different swimming, tennis and baseball activities which will be taken up after the vacation. Baseball may be established this season as one of the more important of women's sports. A great deal of competition is expected this year in the swimming meet. Oread Students Give Plays Oread Students Give Plays The students of Oread High School have organized a dramatic art class, and are planning to give three 1-act plays at Little Theater in Green Hall some time in April. The plays will be coached by members of the Dramatic Art Club. Coach W. O. Hamilton will entertain the men and women who officiated in the recent High School Basketball Tournament, in the banquet room at Bricken's with a banquet at 6:15 o'clock tonight. Read the Daily Kansan. City Water Now Safe To Drink—Dr. Hyde City water is now safe for drinking, Dr. Ida H. Hyde said today, but under no condition should Lawrence well water be drunk without having been bollied. Dr. Hyde also said she had spoken to John Shea, superintendent of the grounds, for a systematic disinfecting of drinking fountains on the Hill. Plain Tales From The Hill A young woman who learned newspaper work in the department of journalism here at the University recently was compelled to resign from her position on a prominent daily newspaper in a western state because she had never become accustomed to the smell of tobacco in a newspaper office. In order to train future women editors for all emergencies, it is probable that a room will be fitted up in the new journalism annex in which classes will be conducted in a fog of tobacco smoke. Several Law students tried to take a Ford into the building Friday just before a quiz but the animal balked at the door and could not be enticed inside. Ponies have been known to have helped some students but this is the first time that there appeared any possibilities of a Ford being able to help any one, especially in Law. "Oh, won't it be fine to go home Easter and get some home cooking once more," remarked a student to his companion on his way up the Hill this morning. "Yes, egggactly," was the reply. SIGN OF SPRING SIGN OF SPRING "Meester Student: nin't got no old clothes vat you wish to sell, yes?" The Sigma Kappa's had a line party last night in the main reading room of the Library. Encyclopedias and the Theater Magazine furnish interesting reading material "Love, here is my heart," sang a professor as he entered his classroom this morning. And you say professors are heartless wretches. No, not all of them. They are still human, even as you and I, are human. Why don't some one wear one of those pretty little yellow flowers called dandelions to match these warm sunny days? A freshman that has taken much pride in the variety of loud neckties that he has been wearing this winter auctioned them og this week to pay his railroad fare home for the Easter vacation. Our new professors of French are learning American ways with great rapidity with many a bruise and black eyes. A few days ago M. Bourdon and M. Beauplarant mounted a motorcycle and rode south on Massachusetts street. According to the nature of these machines it skidded at a corner, M. Bourdon was thrown off, and M. Beauplarant landed on his back with heels high in the air, his trousers badly torn, and the motorcycle on top of him. "Are you dead?" his trousers had him up in his friend. "No, no, but I am badly bruised," came the answer from under the motor cycle. "Wait, don't move, keep your place," yelled M. Bourdon as he rescued his kodak. "I want your picture for the Jay-talker for Mr. Davis." Professor Duffus was remarking upon the merits of the works offered for outside reading in Economics I and asking the students opinion on the various books. He finally asked, "How do you like Seligman," but received no response and none of the students appeared to be familiar with the work. Professor Duffus smiled and replied, "Well, now that is strange that none of you have read the work as three have handed in notes on that reading. I cannot understand." Following the defeat of the Emporia high school basketball team one of their players came into the locker room at the gym, walked up to a couple of the University baseball men who had just returned from practice and congratulated them on their playing. The baseball men were surprised and asked the "why for" of the congratulations and the name of the complimentor. The high school lad scenting the error meekly replied that he thought the baseball men were high school basketball opponents and sneaked away. K. U. Band Will Come With Eliza Wednesday Parade Before Show Scene of Play Laid in English Lord's Apartments in London Miss Parker Coaches Play Members in Dramatic Club in Cast—Proceeds to County Club Union "The play is coming fine," said Willard Glaseo, manager, "and I'm sure that the public will be highly pleased. The first dress rehearsal which was held Monday night went off like clock work." The University band will furnish the music at the K. U. Dramatic Club play, "Eliza Comes To Stay", which will be given at the Fraternal Aid Hall Wednesday night, March 27. The band will meet in front of the Watkins Bank at Eleventh and Massachusetts street march down Massachusetts streets street. There will be a short concert in front of the hall before the show hegging. "Eliza Comes To Stay" is an English royalty comedy. The whole scene is laid in the London apartments of the Honored Sandy Verrall, an English lord. The cast which has been selected for the play is as follows: Hon. Sandy Verrall . Bert Cochran Eliza Vilana Delen Bender Mrs. Allaway Lucille Hovey Alexander Verrall Webb Wilson Lady Pennybroke Edna Roberts Vera Laurence Nadine Blair Montague Gordan Carl Brown The Butler F. C.

They may also be bought from any member of the Women's Student Government Association, the Men's Student Council or the representatives of the County Club Union. The play is being coached by Miss Geneva Parker, assistant instructor in the department of public speaking. Appropriate Music, Sermons, and Sunday School Programs Arranged Churches Plan Special Easter Sunday Services Easter will be observed next Sunday in the various churches with special services. During the Sunday school hour at the Christian Church the children of the primary and junior departments will give a short program. In the evening at 7:45 o'clock the church choir, under the direction of Mrs. E. L. Charlton, will give the cantata, "Easter Angels." The Congregational church will have special music throughout the services. The Freshberterian church will have special music both morning and evening. The morning service at the Methodist church will have Easter music also. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon the Methodist University Vesper will be held at the church, instead of at the house, as usual, and no body address by Blenheim Park or St. John who has been in Kansas City for the last week. The service of the Episcopal church will be held at 11 o'clock. The choir will give a musical program. Dr. C. G. Dunlap will speak, and Prof. L. E. Sayer will conduct the service. Chapel Clock Arrives As Seniors' Gift to K.U. At last the clock which is to be the seniors' memorial gift to the University this year has arrived in Lawrence. It is a handsome, 30-day clock, two feet wide. "The clock will be placed in Fraser Chapel temporarily," announced Walter Raymond, who is chairman of the senior memorial committee, today, "but as soon as the Administration Annex is completed the clock will be moved into the new chapel in that building." Plans are being made at present to place the clock in Fraser Hall the latter part of this week. The conference committee of the Y. W. C. A., of which Eather Moore is chairman, will have a line party to "Eliza Comes to Stay" Wednesday night. --- UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 26,1918. Kansas Snakes Are Friends of Mankind Says Professor Bunker Eat Many Pests Which Destroy Crops—Birds Are Also Useful "As a rule the average man or boy on a farm will go half a mile for a club to kill a bull snake, when he is killing the best friend he has," said C. D. Bunker, assistant curator at Dyche Museum. There are areas in part of the country that are poisonous, the rattle snake and the cornerhead. There is some doubt as to the good derived from the spreading viper. This species feeds on toads, which are advantageous because they eat insects. Mr. Bunker pointed out the mistake commonly made by hunters and fishermen of this country; they refer to all varieties of water snake as water moccasins. The true水 moccasin is a native of the south and is not found in Kansas. It is one kind of copperhead. Mr. Bunker began his experimenting with snakes and animals when he was quite young. He has always spent much of his time out-of-doors, living in the open. He has gone on numerous tours of collection. As a result of this he has gained an intimate acquaintance with fowls and animals, and especially snakes. He knows them all by their first names. He has been connected with the University since 1895. "Most of the others are not only harmless, but beneficial. Some of them eat eggs and chickens to a small extent, but they eat more varniments and field pests such as rats, mice and gophers. The worst objection to snakes is an inherent personal horror." From his experiments he has found that even the chicken-hawk eats very few chickens. In a test made last spring it was found that all birds ate the elm worms which were threatening the life of the shade trees of Lawrence. "If I were to destroy some bird I do not know which I would destroy. They all fill their place. While some may do harm, their good overbalances it." Mr. Bunker is also a friend of the rabbit. While it is destructive in a small degree, it is useful for food. On the other hand, the prairie dog should be eliminated. It is destructive and the only good it does is to furnish food for the more beneficial animals, such as the coyote. The method of elimination of the prairie dog is simple. Mr. Bunker said there is one pest which should be eliminated, one of the worst detriments to the farmer. This is the pocket gopher. It destroys pastures, and especially alfalfa fields. There has been no effective method of destroying the gopher as yet. Because of its habit of working underground it is difficult to trap. And since it lives largely on roots it is not easily poisoned. Etons and Pony Jackets With Silk Braidings and Buttons Predominate Spring Styles Vary In Color and Fabric The tailored suit for this spring season appears in many charming models and styles, as may become the various types of women. For the shorter set, and especially those of slender figures, the eton or pony jacket suit is quite the vogue, with silk braiding and many buttons as trimming. Others are shown with high waist line with belt and buckle at back, the belt being almost universal. Over collars of white or contrasting high shades are used, the eton, the sailor, and the soft roll coat of satin extending well down the coat lapel. Skirts are plain and narrower, and worn not quite as short as last season, about shoe top length, though quite a tendency toward shortness still prevails. Suits for more mature women are on plainer tailored lines. Coats are somewhat longer with belts of self material fastening with buckle or tied with loose ends, sash like. Many are shown with vestes of plque, fancy white materials, or silk, silk braid and buttons are much used, some being elaborately embroidered in silk on collar, cuffs and around bottom of coat. Skil suits are much in favor, taffeta, silk poplin, khaki baron, koren satin and satin America. Some sleeveless jackets are shown in colors contrasting with skirt. Suit cloths varying with the investment are serges, poplins, tricotines, velours, silvertones, tweeds, delilh coat, poiret twills and garabardine, in staple shades of navy, gray, tan and the newer colorings of pokin blue, clay, sammy and polu. The suit of wool jersey cloth is very popular for general wear and is shown with coats of loose sack or sweater style, with belt or girdle. Skirts are plain and clinging with shirred back. Dresses are also worn in this style. Son are rose, turquoise, pokein and French blue, also tan, gray and leather. Easter Bonnets Are Old as Mother Eve (By Vivian Sturgeon) The Easter Bonnet through all time has been, is, and forever will be an institution among women. It is set securely above the feminine mind and will remain ever unalterable, immortal, invariable, fixed and permanent, a custom which watches happily for Easter to come. Not long after the Book of Genesis began to deserve permanent record, Eve saw blossoms coming on the apple tree. Simultaneously something bloomed in her heart. The hat she had worn all the time so long, so patient, at last so painfully—simply could not be endured for another evening stroll down Brachopod Beach. Adam was yawning over his morning "Eternal Times" which had a circulation that positively included every last inhabitant of Eden. He answered the hat proposition with a reminder about expense and the primordial h. c. of l. Eve looked glorious, exalted, magnificent in her soul-assertive defiance. "Hang expense!" she cried. "I want that hat! She got it. She came home with a perfect dream of a hat. Then she convinced Addie that it was a bargain. And finally she put it on. Adam didn't care whether it was a bargain or not. He was satisfied with her, with the hat, and supremely with himself. He never missed the rib again. But this was a tremendous occasion. Eve had started something; Adam had only set a precedent. The Easter Bonnet is not a frivolous luxury; it is a spiritual necessity. Breathes there a woman with soul so dead that when the grass greens overnight and the lilacs come out she never to herself hath said, apropos disgust of her winter one, I must get a spring hat! Time may change the form of the Easter Bonnet but the Grim Reaper will never scythe its function, never steal its attractiveness from the feminine soul. Meet your appetite at our table.

A large amount of the lumber has been carted off. In removing the roof, the wall was so weakened it was in danger of falling. It apparently had been made by the building of heavy ropes through the windows and around the wall. As a precaution, only the men working on the building are allowed within.

The annual baseball tournament is to bow and unleash the blue grass battalions put up a stubborn resistance of reiterated bayonet attacks, Considerable interest is being exhibited in the removal of the cornerstone, and the uncovering of the contents that have been buried fifty-two years.

Grown-up Wise Folks Can't Find Out Anything About It Only Eight-Year-Olds. Know Steps Bunnies Lay Colored Eggs and Nose Them Up Back Steps But how did eggs and rabbits get into Easter? The oldest theologian died years ago with the problem unsolved and his failure was written into his column obituary. The encyclopedist and the lexicographer talked a lot and said nothing for fifty years. Then the newspapermen took a couple of days will they take to somebody. And they usually find something somehow. The reporter went a long way and suffered much and finally brought this transcript of whatever truth there might be about Easter eggs and bunnies. He read about the abolition of them first—in the Annalist. Didn't see why the Annalist should be so generous to 'little children even if candy is a luxury in wartime. But how many Annalists are employed economy. That's what prompted the reporter's question to the statistician across the library table. "Where do they come from?" said the reporter. THAT IS THE QUESTION "wnat?" said the statistician flickering through forty pages of vital compilations set in agate. "I mean Easter eggs and rabbits," amended the reporter. RENEWED HOPE "Why-er-can't you buy them at Wiedie's—ought to be in by this time." And the statistician returned to the exports of 1494. The reporter sought fresh air and met a university girl in a pince nez. She asked her. She paused emphaticly and bit her lip in sincere reflection. "I used to know," she said. "I had it in a course that included everything from sagas and eddas and the Nebuunlenled to the communal ballad." "Yes? Yes? Ah!" The reporter took heart. "There's a legend about the rabbit and the egg, there certainly is a legend," she continued as he followed her. "It is from the Irish—or maybe from the Swiss. I think I can find you a book that tells a about it." MADE IN GERMANY The book was at the bottom of the steel stacks of Spooner. Spooner the knowledge storehouse of the University of Kansas. But it was useless. It deserved to gather dust. In the first place it said the idea of rabbits and eggs was made in Germany. The Anglo-Saxons, who used to celebrate something for Ostera, goddess of Spring, became Christian in England and changed Ostera's Day for Easter. Among the moosy traditions they brought to Easter from Ostera was the belief that rabbits which lived on lakeshores fetched in eggs for an annual omelette at Ostera's full moon. All very scientific, scientific as a German trademark could make it. Simply would not do this year; wonder if it ever did at all. Easter eggs and bunnies are decidedly not scientific. TOOTHLESS TRUTH The reporter was sitting by the wayside lost in solemnly thought. It was getting to be no use at all. Nobody really knew what he wanted. He began to pity the poor old theologian. Then along came the boy, the grinning man whose grin showed three strangles left, two below and one unstairs. "Say," the reporter dispensed with formal greetings, "say—can you tell me where Easter eggs and rabbbits come from?" "Surest thing in the world," came back like an echo from heaven. "They come from all round here and they come every year just about this time. I know." Blue overalls and hickory shirt are an unfailing guarantee of simple truthfulness. The boy had them. "Betcher life," replied sonny. "Saw a rabbit on this hill last week. I asked Dad if it wasn't a Easter rabbit and he said it must be." "Ever see one?" the reporter was chewing his pencil and digging into the trash. "I understand," said the reporter, "but how about the eggs?" "Thought hens did." "Not the colored ones," refuted the ultimate witness. "Rabbits lays the colored ones. Then they just rolls 'em with the noses right up the back steps to the porch." "Oh, we kids make nests for the eggs to be put in. The rabbits alus finds the nests." EIGHT-YEAR-OLD LIMIT "Then where?" The reporter was not quite satisfied. "Tell me before you go to home to supper—tell me if the rabbits would bring me a nest?" If I put a nest out on my porch? "Nope, not a chance," son looked sympathy if ever youth had any for age. "Because—because you're not little any more. They won't bring anything." I moved them. They stopped bringing 'eng' to sister after she was eight, you know." "Too bad," said the reporter over his shoulder "Mildred and I will have to go." Son shook his head in disgust. "Those aren't real eggs," he said. "It's just the rabbits that come on Easter and then brings the real ones—you know!" Weather Is Too Good Study Is Hit Hard Unless the weather ceases to be pleasant and becomes more typical of Kansas, the pursuit for knowledge at K. will practically cease. Every student makes an honest effort to get to the library these warm nights, but he usually turns from the path of duty. The number of hours "killed," the number of cokes consumed, and the number of houses from which an outburst of barber-shop melody comes each night, has greatly increased this ast week. Women in one hiking squad found some Easter lilies on the links near Potter's Lake yesterday, which discovery made the lead caller to the roll "It too cute for words—" YOUR special came asking me to find you an Easter hat while I was in the city. I looked for it but after a whole long weary day of disappointment I came home and found it right here in Lawrence. says Betsy Drew I know that you will love it for it's to cute for words. It has sweet little gift French bows of apricot and blue—nifty ones that seem to be painted right on the high shiny crown, and tiny little bunches of forgetmentons and roses. The straw, too, is French, in name at least—it is black lisher. And of course it is a poke. It has a facing of the soft apricot shade of crepe de chine that will look so good on you. Kansas City may be the place to get some things, but when it comes to clever little hats that just suit, leave old Siedler's—first door of south Wiedie's. Write soon and tell me how much you like it. Betay Drew Lovingly, HOTEL KUPPER Kansas City, Mo. THE GREEN BAY FORTRESS at once and let the hikers spend the remainder of the hour picking flowers. It takes spring to soften the hardest hearts. Sunshine affects people differently. One freshman woman said she worked more this week than any time this year, because it's the first time her room has been warm enough to be habitable. This is doubtless an unusual reaction. K. U. may eventually become acclimated and accustomed to spring, but right now the weather is disconcerting.

THE RETURN OF HOPE TUESDAY, MARCH 26, 1918 Long before the light of Christianity appeared in the world the ancients celebrated the return of the sun in the spring of the year, the renewal of life that came up from the hills of Samothrace for the brief Agean spring ___. This year of years when Christianity has been the light of men for centuries, men are looking into a shadowed future. The spring comes and with it the day kept in remembrance of the everlasting renewal of all life. But it brings no joy. It brings no peace. And as for hope—it is rather resolution and determination than hope that holds man to the burden of work that must be done before the shadow clears away. Easter, the Rebirth, the Dawning of life's immortality, this is the soul's season, when the whole force of nature turns, awakes, and scorning the winter drab gives itself up wholly to the glad extravagant expression of the innermost radiance of the spirit. It is now that the white illies of the soul blossom. This Easter descends upon a well nigh hopeless world. It sees a chaos, an armed combat, an awful vista of human suffering on a darkened world stage. One half the world fights for a higher, fuller, and a more perfect life. The other is leagued with the powers of darkness. There is no peace. There can be no peace until the battle for Humanity, God's highest cause, sees victory. But God has touched the eyes of the Crusaders and given them sight and renewed their will with His. Their plowshares have been set into the ground and there will be no looking backward when the plow goes through mire, shambles, and horror. Surely the souls of the men who go forth to this war are clad in gorgeous raiment, and are freed from mortal bars and bonds. They on the edge of Eternity can realize that time is as brief as a shadow, and life but a frail web. Their eyes will have seen beyond the grave, and in the faces of the slain will be the love of Him who was tortured and died in their same cause. This Easter is indeed a white priest of Eternity, bringing to us a return of hope, and brightening the path of right. For the will of man to right is God's will; and God's will be done. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT "What is he?" she inquired, refer ring to his frat denomination. "He's nothing," he replied carelessly; not in his heart meaning what he said. Our ways of speaking may be a small matter, but— No amount is too small to LEND TO YOUR COUNTRY. Buy War-Savings Stamps! A POOR COACH On the eve of the great football battle here in America, the college football coach speaks before the final rally. He tells of the season's great record. Half of the men are in a crippled condition. For this reason they will go into the final and deciding battle in bad shape, but they must fight all the harder because of this fact. He urges the men to root for their team if the players are to do their best. Most of the players are in good physical condition and ready to meet their opponents. The game should be won if the players put up the necessary fight, and show the old time spirit which has won in the past. No word as to what the final outcome will be, only the hint that victory is within their grasp if they play the right sort of a game. Here the Kaiser erred. He showed the ear marks of the weak athletic coach. He placed the men in such a position that if they failed he had no excuse to offer for this failure. As a coach the Kaiser made a big blunder. But Coach Kaiser Wilhelm, before the eve of the great struggle which is now going on at the western front, took the floor before his trained hordes and told them how good they were. He knew they were in fit condition; they had the strength; the courage; the training. Their early season victories, he said should make them feel confident. His men were fit. So far Bill was right. But he went too far. He told his Kultured Hordes that they had it in them to win; they had never before really been licked; they could not be defeated. Victory was certain for them. He puffed them up. They could not fail. They asked her to set down her schedule for the school week of 120 ours and this is what she wrote; TEMPUS FUGITS In class, 15 hours. Prep for class, 30 hours. Eating, 12 hours, 45 minutes. Sleeping, 40 hours. Dressing (minimum), 2 hours, minutes. Physical training, 4 hours. Surgical dressings, 2 hours. Food lecture, 30 minutes. Y. W. C. A., 1 hour. Exhaustive and exhausting—she worked harder on the account than she did on the week's work. And even then she forgot what every girl worth the name has to go in for—the committees of 57 varieties, the Woman's Forum, basketball, soon baseball, departmental clubs, and so on down to mere dates. True the poor child cannot do everything all of the time. But when in a mad scramble to get accomplishment accomplished she does nothing in no time at all and then sits right down for a good cry—just put a pencil in her hand and a piece of paper under the pen and make her gauge the wingbeats of fugtting temps. When I was a girl, I thought as a girl, I acted as a girl, I knit on girlish flubdubs, I ate girlish candy, but now that I am a co-educated woman I have put away girlish things—I do soldier knitting. What's the use of that? Oh, no use. No use at all. She is convinced of futility, gets out of the way, ceases to be a hindrance to others, and after a sojourn in the daze comes out and tries again. Perhaps she will wake up in a new world and live as those life who do the work of a day and more. FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF USJARE ENLISTED RedCross News Some of the women who do not work at the surgical dressings room because it inconveniences them remind one of the banker in a London air raid. A British three-inch gun took up its position in a fashionable residence district, in front of the home of a wealthy banker. The banker stood the noise for a time and then walked out and said to the officer in charge: Astounding Asseverations Howard (Scrubby) Laslett: "I've got just about as much love for a newspaper man as I have for a track man."

"I say, would you mind taking that a little farther down the street?" We don't like the row and it is fairly shaking our walls." William Watson Davis: "The invention of submarines makes this the greatest day for liars since the invention of fishing." The young lieutenant was nonplussed. "Look here," he snapped out, "do you take this for a blooming hurdy-gurdy?" There is no resting time for the women of the Red Cross. No cessation is allowed to the surgical dressings enthusiasts. A constant stream of demands pours into Red Cross headquarters. The Medical Department of the U. S. Army is preparing the title unit for a large scale. The demand for hospital garments and surgical dressings is insistent. You don't have to have any postage if your soldier is a prisoner of war, but you mustn't seal the letter.

MARCH 26,1918. 5 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Easter 1918 Beholds Supreme War Effort Along Western Front Heroic Sacrifice To Be Commemorated With the Day by All Time (By Millard Wear) The last clash of the millions came on Easter Day in 1918. The ultimate decision for the right was pressed at the outset of battle, and if not realized at the end of it, made more certain by it. This is what shall be written of the day and everlastingly remembered. Cambrai and St. Quentin back to Ham, nine miles of German dead and British bravery, the dispatches read. And then the spiked helmets stood still. The prayer that was lived and acted when there was no time for utterance was answered. What was endured cannot be told. What was done will never cease the telling. Tuesday morning the Germans said they had Baupaume. This means they intend to make a straight line through to Amiens and cut off the west coast of France along with that section of Belgium still held by the British. On the larger maps this chunk of territory can be seen in reference to present course of the German drive, Given course of that course and the Belgium, particularly of Calais, they can apply their mutterracker twist the more successfully on the Allied troops squeezed in between them and Verdun. But the great stranding is less great with the lengthening of drive's duration. A hundred thousand a day is a fearful penalty for German victory and each slower day means addition to that hundred thousand slain as well as limitation of gains to the final vanishing point when, exhausted, the Germans must face the inevitable countering from fresh troops held in reserve. The strain on the German troops is terrific. They know they die for nothing personal, that their sacrifice is wholly involuntary, that they are herded to the imminent death that wipes men out on masse. There are no heroes among German common soldiers today. Men must sweat and bleed and die in dread track. Time is huddled on a dead track. Time is the deviralization of German morale. This is the best way to kill it. Let it wear itself out. The Allies are conserving life and energy the while they slowly fall back. There will be a fearful balance struck against the Germans just about Good Friday. Easter Sunday may witness another triumph of God. This is especially true if the story of the Marine must be explained to convince the reader of what time and individual consciousness of personal responsibility can do in the armies of Britain and France—and now America. This is Holy Week. The agony is in more than symbolism. It is lived again by men, more men than ever lived it before. They cannot die. This Easter will keep them alive forever.

IIII Labor Of Country Can Be Stabilized By Aesthetic Homes Professor Stevens Considers Shifting Labor Conditions A Useless Waste "The labor turn-over in America factories back East is something awful and utterly wasteful," he said, "and a thing that can be remedied very much by planting flowers, shrubs and trees. Every few months there is a complete turnover in these factories and with a resultant loss in production. Drawing big wages, labor is dissatisfied with its surroundings and is shifting consortia to good job to another. At 810 a day in Philadelphia, it isn't striking for hospitals, but against ugly sordid homes, and for better homes. Factories change their working organizations in a few months, and the loss in training and recruiting new worker is enormous in the loss it causes. "England has had its industries, particularly the war industries, greatly crippled by just such a condition, and England has solved the problem by providing better and more attractive homes for its industrial workers. It is a fact, proved in England, and our government now recognizes it, that a little vine covered cottage with flowers, shrubs and grass about will hold a man to his job when big wages absolutely will not. And the American government and the industries are planning a big use of flowers to make the kind of homes that will hold the man to the job." Flowers and trees make possible a bigger output of munitions and domestic articles in American industries today. In fact, flowers and trees play a great direct part in the stability of exports and commerce in the United States. Prof. W. C. Stevens, chairman of the department of botany at the University of Kansas, made the foregoing assertion in urging the planting of more trees, shrubs and flowers in Kansas this spring. Professor Stevens spent last fall and a part of the winter in New York in special research work for the government. He is continuing this search for new and substitute raw materials of various fibers and plant products while conducting his work at the University. Professor Stevens gave the following trees and shrubs as well suited for planting in Kansas towns and cities: "The elm is the best tree for parkways in Kansas towns and cities from Missouri to Colorado," he said. It stands street conditions, smoke and dust, is hardy and quick growing and is most beautiful. In my opinion it is the best tree for parkways. It is too large to be planted in small lawns, but is fine for large spaces. Pin oak perhaps comes next as a street tree. It grows as far west as Hutchinson, possibly farther. Red oak also is good and about in this place map, put the green area in front now in all parts of the state, or the white ash that will thrive in the eastern twilights of Kansas. The sycamore, too, makes an excellent street tree, Sugar and Norway maples make excellent street and lawn trees, but soft maples should be planted only in parks. They break easily and prevent grass from growing. "The sugar and Norway maples do well at least as far west as Newton. They with oaks, ash, sycamore, wild cherry and honey locust make fine lawn trees for Kansas. Another good tree for Kansas is the ginkgo, a delicate leave, beautiful tree. Catalpas make good lawn trees but are not good for street planting. Dogwoods, sasafras in the eastern part, and the Chinese pagoda tree and Russian olive also are good lawn trees. Every backyard should have a fruit tree or two. Nut trees are slow growth usually and do not transplant easily. *Perhaps the two best evergreen trees for lawn planting in Kansas are the Austrian pine with its dark gray bark, rapid growth, long life and hardiness and the Scotch pine with its reddish brown bark and more irregular outline. White pine is too susceptible to blister rust to risk planting. The red cedar, which will grow anywhere in Kansas, also is good, particularly planted with Chinese arbor vitae in windbreaks. For a dwarf pine the Mugho is desirable. A group of these evergreens is made much more attractive by having one or two white birches planted in front of them as acent plants. The Colorado blue spruce is also an excellent accent plant, one or two of them being planted against a group of larger trees. The white birch will grow as far west as Hutchinson. West of that I am not informed, as to the white birch." Do not try to plan too large a tree, if an elm, one not more than three inches in diameter, Professor Stevens said. Rich men can transplant full grown trees, and perhaps get them to grow in a fashion, but the small tree will eventually catch up with such transplanted trees. For all-Kansas shrubs Professor Stevens recommends lilacs, spires, hardy roses, including cherry blossoms, pear wedge, tamarix, high bush crabberry (a variety of snowball), forthia, alchemy, wisteria, honey-sucke; also climatis, desmidium, for fall blooming; holly-hocks, petunias, irises, jonquils, phlox, stocks and mallows. The Anglo-Saxon knew very little about spring. His world was mostly night and winter. His life was sternly solemn, for he fought with nature on sea and on land. His primitive civilization was impotent against the rigor of the elements. When spring did come after the long ice winter, he just had to celebrate. He welcomed the season with a joy that was reverent, for he was a serious man and a religious one. A thrill went through his heart when April By major city Ivory white lilies; glad light through stained glass windows; and the peace of hope that is sure; those ideas come to mind when the word Easter is spoken now, twenty centuries after the event which it commemorates. Easter Got Its Name From Her When Early Monks Took In Heathens By Marjory Roby But the word Taster is not Christian. It is pagan, for it belongs in old Teutonic mythology. Eostre was the Anglo-Saxon goddess of the spring, a goddess associated to her, and festivals in celebration of the goddess were held them. Return of Spring Was Anglo-Saxon Holiday Of Eostre, A Goddess It was nature worship. Teutonic mythology is a religion of nature. But the spring-time celebration of the return of life and hope to earth, as practised by the pagan is not really foreign to the commemoration of the A. G. ALRICH 736 Mass.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7 What Men May Wear When They Go Home For Easter Vacation Dress Rehearsal Comes Next Sunday and Men Are Inspecting New Spring Clothes Students Must Hooverize Economy in Cloth But Not in Colors—Greens and Grays To Be Popular (By Lawson May) Spring is near. Easter comes next week. Easter means new clothes. And what a man wears is very often the outward and visible sign of what he feels. Taking this for all it is worth would mean that our University men are for the most part a rather carefree gentry. Man will wear about the same habit as he has worn since modern man put away childish things and began to dress as we do now. A hat—green, gray, brown, blue—any color will be worn by the stylish young man of the University. If he doesn't like a hat he can purchase any hue of cap at the downtown stores. Caps, it seems, never will develop the habit of being sane and sensible in their cloth. The more violently wierd the hue, the better the cap sells. There will be no little doodles or hoddlings on the cap because the banner of the clothes makers this year says they are saving cloth. Greens and grays are the desited popular colors for hats. For our soldiers on the Hill the broad brimmed brown hat is the thing. Coats will have no belts—that is new coats. But there are many men on the Hill who will be seen wearing coats with belts. This is because dad can not afford more than three suits a year. And it isn't time for the third one. Double-breasted three button coats with an absence of flaps at the pockets, but rather with slits for pockets will follow in the footsteps of Mr. Hoover and his save-cloth idea and also will be o. k. with Monsieur Fashion. But man won't be passe neither will he be taken for a German should be appear with a single breasted two-button jacket with flap pockets located four places on the front. Trouser's which are so called in style books but which are pants in Kansas will be straight edged from the belt down. Carrying the conservation idea to the extreme, the University man should appear with no cuffs on his pants legs. Because as should be been said before, militaristic style is all the rage. If you haven't dunned a uniform in the real service of Uncle Sam you can at least wear military style clothes. Vests are high and can be very easily used in covering that spot of egch which you have on your Sunday tie. Vests also will be used this year as in years past for the purpose of camouflaging a dirty shirt. When it is cold, vests should be removed and put in the moth balls to wait the coming of winter. And the removal of the vest calls for silk shirts and nice neckties. Nicest neckties for University men cost one fifty. They used to be bought for fifty cents. Dad hasn't appreciated this change yet. nitted ties always are good in summer. Likewisely winter. Shirts are t he of a slightly less noisier hue this summer. The feeling of the times must be reflected in the shirts. But man's mind runs to the contrary and the Kansan can see at this moment brightest hues of inconceivable patterns at the parks and union church services this summer. Stiff collars are being worn more by the elites of dress than ever before. The collars are low, easy to wear and haven't scratched yet. But soft collars still will be worn and the stores have their uniforms. Rubber collars the keenan says that stiff linen collars should be worn. Rubber collars are still passe. Shoes are being built for comfort more than for pinches this year. University men have already adopted the wide toe and unshinned shoe. Because they're good in foul or fair weather. And that's what military drill is meaning. And the price is going higher every three months. Low shoes are perfectly satisfactory if the man doesn't have a hole in his sock. Which brings us to that, meaning socks. Not much to say on this subject. Black socks are good. So are white ones. Lawrence haberdasheries are showing green socks with red bands and them. They're good looking, too. And further into the dress of man we refuse to wander. Corner: 11 Hart DebenRiver & Marr 100% TED BURTON 10.40 A What's new for spring? ANY number of men and young men have asked us that question about the spring clothes. There never has been so much interest before and never so many good styles to be interested in.Because so many men want authentic information, we're publishing these fashion notes. There's the "erect, shoulders back and chest out" influence of this war that is evident in all the new models. The waist lines are more marked; the buttons placed closer together; military backs and pockets are the thing. Above you see four young men's styles from Hart Schaffner & Marx 1 At the extreme left is the new two button sack with patch pockets. Notice the straight hanging front and the body tracing lines at the waist. 2. Next you see a double breasted suit; they're going to be worn more than ever this spring. They'll make a pleasing change for many men. Notice the buttons—two only are buttoned. The lapels are semi-peaked. 3 The third suit from the left is one of the liveliest of the new sport styles. There's a seam at the waistline; a military back and slanting slash pockets. Those are small plaits above the waist seam. 4 This suit at the right is another sport style—and an especially good one. The pockets have double rows of stitching and buttons and buttonholes. We'll be glad to show you some of the other new ones; every suit is all wool for long wear. The value you get for your money makes these the lowest priced clothes you can buy. PECKHAM'S The home of Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes The Kansan sent to the K.

TOMMY HELSEY 8 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MARCH 26,1918 First Practice Game Of Baseball Season On McCook Yesterday Dutch Schoenfeldt's Team Runs Away With Wardie Welt- mer's Nine New Men Out for Practice basketball Men Report for First Time—Getting in Good Form The first practice game of the baseball season was played on McCook field yesterday between two teams picked from the Varsity squad. Wardie Weltmer, veteran outfielder and "K" man, led one of the teams and the opposing nine was headed by Dutch Schoenfeldt, second baseman on last year's Varsity team. The two teams battled for three innings and the Schoenfeldites were in the lead when the contest was called. The players on Weltner's nine were as follows: Left field, Weltmer; center field, Oyster; right field, Smith; third base, Urblaub; short stop, Morgan; second base, Lonborg; first base, Machamer; catcher, Cooper, and pitcher, Schoopel. The team headed the defense. Left field, Eagles; center field, Goodwin; right field, Caler; third base, Keeler; short stop, Cherry; second base, Schoenfeld; first base, Williams; catcher, Bunn, and pitcher, Slawson. The play of both teams was fast and slayy, considering the short time which the men have had for outdoor practice. Cherry looks like a good man n Joe Pratt's place in the short field and besides fiding in good style, he contributed a home run to his team's total score. Keeler performed well at third for the Schoenfeldites and also slammed a ball clear to the left field fence for four bases. For Weltmer's team, Dutch Uhrlaub at third base looked good and got one hit in two times at bat, besides handling cleanly his only chance in the field. Oyster in center field caught the only two flies knocked to the outfield. Uhrlaub and Lonborg were out for practice for the first time yesterday afternoon and neither was in form. Lonborg, however, played well on last year's freshman nine and should develop into a first class ball player. Uhrlaub's hitting in the practice which preceded the game yesterday was excellent, as he knocked several balls over the embankment in deep left field. Both Bouchier's and Bond's pegging was fast and accurate for early season work. Neither pitcher was putting much on the ball as Coach Bond has forbidden curves to be thrown until later in the season. The infield on the McCook field diamond has been dragged and is in fairly good shape for playing. A shipment of new bats has been received by the athletic management and will be tried out by the players during the next few days. Both the Varsity and freshmen squads should be in good shape in a short time, and ready to begin the Varsity-freshmen practice games, probably immediately after the Easter vacation. Cairns of Winfield, although playing center, was one of the best guards in the tournament. Cairns is an ideal basketball player, a good floor man, an excellent passer and a power in breaking up his opponent's scoring class in scored class in scoring, both from the flend and the free throw line. SPORT BEAMS Emporia had one of the classiest little teams entered. Every man, with the exception of Kliwer at center, was small but each player made up for lack of weight with fight. Grant and Baird played well at forwards and Jensen, brother of Bus Jensen, K. U. gymnast, showed class at guard. G. Gardner, Arkansas City forward, was the high score man in the tournament with 82 points. He was closely followed by Dotson of Newton with 78 points. Gardner also ranked highest in average points per game with 16 2-5. The twelve high score men, with the number of field goals, free throws, total points and average points per game of each player, are as follows: Don't overloap the finishing touch to your Easter costume—La Meritol Perfumes in a variety of pleasing odors.—Evan's drug Store--Adv.

General Wood's Story How Army Makes Men Told Here by Officer Capt. O. L. Garlinghouse of Medical Corps Stirs Men of University Calls Funston Soldiers Best Punctures Fallacy That Camp Begs Smokes and Scores Tobacco Trust "General Wood faced his army out on the open plain of Kannas and said I want to tell you a story and they listened and it made them men," was the opening shot of the big message Capo O, L. Gunther, of Camp Funston brought to the men of the University of Kansas Tuesday afternoon. And the sturdy strength, clear utterance, and whole soul of a typical army officer carried the audience of Captain Garlinghouse every minute of the time he took the oath of loyalty to the army of the making of men in the army of the United States. How General Wood's leadership inspires loyalty and love of man for man and all men for their country and its cause was the captain's theme. How the general inculcates the will to be master of self and master of a foe and how becoming a veteran is made a matter of weeks and not months took form in the captain's succeeding words. The sympathy of officers for the newly arrived, disprited and lonely drafted man Capt. Garlinghouse said partook of some吧 but more pride for the stuff the men were made of and what it was going to be made into for the big job ahead. "The feel of the uniform and the consciousness of fellowship with the rest in the great responsibility makes every one a soldier, a selected man, a chosen man, a consecrated man," the captain said. "And the men who have come from the homes of this part of the United States are the biggest, the bravest, and the best in all the land." NOTHING YELLOW THERE THE COLORADO CUT-UP The captain saw the weak men, too, as they came in, the "yellow-backs," he called them. But color was never fast. "Eighteen pounds of sinew and fibre, corded muscles, quickened minds, disciplined morals—and it's only a matter of days when the last of jauceiness is out of the blood to stay out," was the key to the captain put it. The swift marches before breakfast, the drill through the forenoon that included live brainwork in the study of military machinery and tactics, more drill in the afternoon—all meant appetites and sound sweet sleep that made men glad in an early rising. The food was the best that could be had—no meatless, wheatless or any other kind of eatless day for the army, the captain declared. The evenings spent in fine association. "You just ought to hear those soldiers sing!" the captain said. "Keep the Home Fires Burning" 'Abide With Me,' and as for the 'Star Spangled Banner'—that gets you at the soul." The captain told of some men the army had literally made. One was a town bully a local board in Colorado had to assemble deputy sheriffs to help entrain. He came down to run Funston. But he didn't. He was given a toothbrush and told to clean cracks in a floor. Two grimming Kansans stood guard over him with beautiful silver-steel flashing bayonets that didn't have to be used in all the two days before exploring the floor. They grinned, too, and then things changed. His home town called him a gentleman and the right kind of a strong man when he went back on leave. The captain took a belt at the tobacco trust which he called to account for what amounts to propaganda inasmuch as the men in camp are not on their knees pleading for a puff. "They are not that kind of men," the captain said. "They have pride as well as power and with every day their hearts grow bigger and bigger. General Wood told them how to do it. They were coming through for him!" NOT WORRIED ABOUT TOBACCO UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 27.1918 No Gym Thursday P. M.

The War Here and Over There London admits the capture of Roye and states that the Germans are in front of and attacking Albert, twenty-five miles to the east. Thus the new German line, at latest reports, extended along this front, between Roye and Albert. The enemy are converging on Amiens, with the purpose of cutting off all the western section, from Amiens to the coast. They have gone just half way to Amiens from their original position, and the cutoff is just half done. They are still moving forward. THE NEW LINE "HOLD 'EM/' YANKS' SLOGAN "HOLD 'EM!" YANKS' SLOGAN Dispatches from General Pershing to Washington say American soldiers under General March are standing shoulder to shoulder with their British brothers-in-arms and are holding strong. Designation of units engaged has not yet come in, but without doubt every available soldier with adequate training is on the front pumping lead and gripping behind bayonets and joining in the battlecry of the Yankees—"Hold 'em, hold 'em, hold 'em to the last man of all!" The Associated Press hopes to get what the "more" at the end of this begun story is within another twenty-four hours. DON'T BELIEVE BERLIN DON'T BELIEVE BEHILIN Newspapers in European neutral countries are not minimizing the seriousness of the German drive, but are adding much salt to Berlin brays. They remind their readers of the reports from German headquarters when Verdan was assailed. BRITISH WOUNDED IN FIRST BRIEF WASHINGTON A special train arrived in Paris Tuesday evening, with the first load of Briquet who fell under the German drive. They were distributed among all the hospitals of the city. Numbers are not given, but there were enough to fill a train. Nature and seriousness of wounds had no comment. East of the Jordan in Palestine the British advance steadily continues. Heavy thunderstorms make operations difficult, but also render resistance less capable.

Class Presidents Believe First- Year Men Will Follow Tradition Freshman Caps to Make First Official Spring Appearance April 2 Fraternities Support Plan Student Council and College Of ficers Ask That Names of Delinquents be Published NUMBER 118 "Sure, they'll wear their freshman caps this spring. Who thinks they won't?" That seems to be the pervading sentiment among student leaders on the Hill in regard to the freshman cap question. They look upon the matter as settled, and wonder why anyone should for one moment not be sure the freshmen will all wear their distinctive headscarf without a murmur. Warren Wattles, president of the senior class, also replied strongly in the affirmative concerning this matter. He said the freshmen as a whole are as much in favor of wearing the ones he prefers, when doing them it, that whatever few objections there may be can be easily, quickly, and surely subdued. "Dutch" Uhrlaub and "Brick" Chandler of the Men's Student Council declare themselves and the students whom they represent as unanimously in favor of the freshmen wearing their caps. They are practically sure that fraternity will interfere if any of them do, the big bosses were of the opinion that the respective fraternities and clubs would take care of the matter. Wearing of freshman caps goes into effect April 1. The button on the engineer's caps is yellow, for the college nurse, or for pharmacists' and aid red. Herschel Washington, president of the junior class, is of exactly the same opinion. Each felt sure that he was expressing adequately the feeling of the members of his class. Mr. Wattles requested that the name of any freshman who does not comply with this tradition be published in the Kansan, as was done last From French Concerts To K. U. Entertainment He also' more than insinuated that this would be the least of the punishments meted out to all "slackers" in this matter. The program will consist largely of well known and popular numbers. The price of single admission tickets for this one concert has been reduced to fifty cents. They will be on sale at the door the evening of the concert. Karl Kirksmith, the principal member of the Kirksmith Trio which will give the fourth and last concert of the University Concert Course, April 3, in Robinson Gymnassium, is one of the best known solo 'cellists' in America. He is a member of the New York Philharmonic Symphony Society, which is one of the most important positions held by any American musician. He appeared last spring at the Kansas City festival, where he had an immense success. Dean Butter heard him at that time and immediately engaged him for this year's concert course. Miss Brainard is one of the best of the younger American pianists. She has recently returned from France where she gave many recitals the first two years of the war. Mrs. Anita Taylor, the soprano of the trio, who also appeared at the Kansas City festival, is the best known soprano in Kansas City and a great favorite in the Middle West. Her voice is a magnificent dramatic soprano of great range and of beautiful quality. English Royalty Comedy Is Set In London In Apartments of Lord Verrall "Eliza Comes to Stay" Given by County Clubs At F.A.U. Hall Tonight Miss Parker Coaches Play "Eliza Comes To Stay," the play which is being managed by the County Club Union to raise money for the Permanent Income Amendment, is ready for presentation in Fraternal Aid Union Hall tonight. The curtain will rise at 8 o'clock. Bert Cochran and Helen Bender Play In Title Roles The play is an English royalty comedy. The action takes place in the London Apartments of the Honorable Sandy Verrall, an english lord, portrayed by Bert Cochran. The title role of Eliza taken by Helen Bender who scored such a success in the annual Dramatic Club play this winter. Lucille Hovey is another member of this other play who has a part in "Eliza Comes To Stay." Web Wilson, Edna Roberts, Nadine Blair, Carl Brown, and F. C. Stringfellow have the parts in the comedy. Lieut. Col. W. W. Reno Has Been Lost at Sea Word has been received that Lieut. Col. W. W. Reno, '93, has been lost at sea while enroute to the United States from France. Mrs. Anna Reno, of Lawrence, mother of the soldier, received a telegram, March 22, informing her that her son disappeared from aboard the United States ship Susquehanna, March 21, and that a careful search failed to discover the body. What The Rabbits Said EASTER The play is the first bit of coaching work that Miss Geneva Parker, assistant instructor in the department of public speaking, has done since she came to the University recently. The larger the seat sale the greater success the County Club Union at K. U, will have in presenting the exam. In 1984 the Indiana HBI before the voters of the state in the state election next fall. There has been, up to the present time, nothing done toward forming the league. Coach W. O. Hamilton will not take charge of the work this year, it is believed. There have been no appearances at the different clubs of an inclination for the forming of such a league for this year. Coach Hamilton will in all probability be too busy to take charge of the league, if one is formed. Chances are against the forming of a Hash House League this year at K. U., according to present indications. Colonel Reno has been in the medical corps of the United States army for the last fifteen years. After graduating from the University of Kansas in 1893, he was stationed at Fort Riley, but later was sent to the Philippine Islands. He was stationed at Fort Russell, Wyo. Last summer he was sent to the border and did active work in the field hospital at El Paso, Texas. October 9 last year, he sailed for France; and it is thought he was on his way home when lost. The mother of the missing soldier live in Lawrence. May Have No Baseball League of Hash Houses Colonel Reno is 47 years old and leaves a wife and two children who live in Cleveland, Ohio. In the army he was recognized as an authority on sanitation. Br'er Rabbit flopped one ear up and one ear down. Sis Rabbit just had to listen. "You'll don't remember do you?" he said. "No-o," she dutifully replied. "It was a long, long time ago," he said. "It must have been," she answered. "It was," he concluded. She waited. He told it. "Before folks rigged all new from head to feet." "When?" she timidly ventured. "Easter time, you silly bunny." Council of Defense Will Meet In Lawrence The regular meeting of the Kansas State Council of Defense will be held in Lawrence Friday of this week. Chancellor Strong of the University and Dr. E. J. Kulp of Topeka are to speak at a meeting called by the State Council of Defense at Beloit, Thursday night. They will also speak at Council Grove, Clay Center, and Minneapolis. Chancellor Strong has already spoken in Herington and Argentine. Plain Tales From The Hi!' I had a brass alarm clock; It rang quite loud and deep. Macbeth I called the darned old thing, Because it murdered sleep. The professors of the Chemistry classes have hit upon a novel idea of reminding their pupils of the change in time after Easter. One professor was giving his pupils a quiz and asked them to copy a question and sign their names to it. The question was —"I know that all clocks will be turned up one hour after Easter." "Now," said the professor, "I have a signed statement from all of you, and you can't come up late Tuesday, with the excuse that you did not know." It was a fortunate thing for the reputation of the University that April 1 was made a holiday as no professor would have escaped being the butt of April Fool pranks just because the clocks had been turned up an hour the day before. Every year since Harry Kemp first appeared on Mount Orand with no hat on his head and his long hair waving in the breeze, there has been some student who wished to make it appear that he too was a poet by exposing his beautiful locks to the warm sun light. A slim youth is seen every day this spring carefully assisting a young woman up the sides of the hill, lest she should stumble over a twig as it were, and he has a smart "pomp-y door." He is not a poet even though his conversation with her sounds rather poetic. The "meanest man" that has been found at K. U. recently was the student who took his shoes from a repair shop last week without paying for them and left his name with a fictitious address. A fellow that cheats a shoemaker out of his hard earned money is not the type of fellow that Uncle Sam wants for the army. As a result of trying to have her beauty beautified at one of the prominent "Beauty Parlers" in Kansas City last Saturday, one of the Kansas Beauty Contest winners is suffering with a mammoth blister on her left ear, caused by the hair-dresser's curling iron. The "beauty" bears her misfortune in silence and insists that the improvement was worth the pain. One of the middle law classes under Professor Osborne is quite small but it looked smaller the other morning when he came to class and found the men arranged around the back of the room with their chairs tilted against the wall in a most comfortable position for a good nap. "Well," said Professor Osborne, "I see that you fellows are getting as far away from this subject as you can." For Twelve Long Hours Tom Ashby Played Fish Former K. U. Student Writer From England After Escaping From Tuscania "I played fish in the water for twelve hours before I was picked up," is the way Tom Ashby, a former student at the University—who was on the troop ship Tuscania describes his escape in a letter to the Sigma Nu fraternity. He was landed on the Irish coast where the people gave him assistance and treated him kindly. After recovering from the effects of his long swim, he was sent to England, where he is still stationed. No indication as to what part of England he was in, was given in the letter. Mr. Ashby was in the University in 1913 and is a member of the Sigma Nu Fraternity. His company was badly disorganized and many were lost. They are stationed in England until it can be reorganized and the missing men replaced. They expect to be on their way to the front soon.

Collegiate Alumnae Association To Give Three One-Act Plays "Oh for a Wife." Written by Miss Hearty Brown of Department of English The Collegiate Alumnae Association will give its annual series of plays the last of April at the Unitarian church. This is the third series the Association has given here, and the proceeds are given over for the maintenance of the Collegiate Alumnae Scholarship. Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes, director of the series, has chosen three fares. One is by Bernard Shaw, "How She Lied To Her Husband." Another is written by Mis Hearty Brown of the department of English, entitled, "Oh For a Wife." "Overtones" is the third. "We expect to start to work on them immediately," said Miss Hoopes this morning. "Our plays are lively and engaging and I want to give a good representation of them." The following cast has been selected: Sophia Smithmeyer, Dr. and Mrs. A. J. Mix, Miss Katherine Duffield, Opal Holmes, and Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes. All of the cast has not been selected. Last year the Association presented two plays, "The Land of Hearts' Desire" and "The Man Who Married a Dumb Wife." The year before last they presented "Omelet Oatmella." Miss Myrtle Greenfield To Red Cross Service Miss Myrtle Greenfield, bacteriologist in the water and sewage laboratory of the state board of health, will leave the University soon to enter Red Cross service as a bacteriologist. She will be stationed at Little Rock, Arkansas. Senior Invitations Ir The last of the copies of the senior invitations were sent in yesterday by the invitation committee, and all inquiries should be here by the first week in April. Walter G.

ON ACQUIRING SIXTY MINUTES WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1918 ON ACQUIRING SIXTY MINUTES When the soul shattering and sleep wrecking aural radiations from 90,000,000 family alarm clocks stir the quick and the drowsy on Sunday morning, April first, history is going to see its most colossal April Fool joke. For the hour is going to be seven, where before it was only six. Moreover, the joke will not be over even in all April, it will last to October. Time, the latest commodity to be Hoovered, will be saved to the extent of 90,000,000 hours a day. Coming down to University realms this only means a sixty minute more intense application of grandfather's good old early-to-bedearly-to-rise bromide. We have always preached it; now we are going to practice it for an hour daily. Possibly it might be termed a military drill supplement, a moral drill. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT —and don't feel as if you should get honorable mention and your portrait in the patriot's gallery for doing it either. This is precisely a ticket buying procedure. Everyone must stand in line to get a ticket to Victory. Take a good long nap during the Easter breathing space. You will need it. Don't forget to turn your watch up an hour on Saturday night so you can face Sunday. It is the little things that count He was a campus cutter. The grass meant so little to him. It was for his dainty feet to tread upon. The result—it was unexpected—an innocent cow path for studeh could not use the sidewalk. THE QUESTION ANSWERED This is one year in which the question of how we are to spend our Easter vacation has been answered with no conscious effort on our part. The usual list of house parties has been shortened until we wonder if that class of social function has become extinct. Nobody has asked us to be his Easter guest. We have asked nobody to go home with us. Yes, there's a reason, not an excuse for a seeming oversight, but a real honest to goodness reason. Many of us are returning to homes in much smaller communities than Lawrence and where there is not the opportunity to get first hand war news and where the full import of war duty has not been sufficiently emphasized. We have had the opportunity to attend Food Conservation lectures, Red Cross classes, and Military talks. Almost all of us have felt that at last there is an opportunity, not to do our bit, but to do our best. For this reason we have decided to forego Eastrt house parties and Easter guests and do war work in some of its many phases at home among the homefolk. Have you a little SALVAGE BASKET in your home? LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT He promised his folks back home that he would write back in two days. He remembered two weeks later. It was a little thing that he forgot to do. But his folks remembered. TIME WILL TELL Time is the best adjustor of the nation's controversies. People of a warring nation are prone to criticize the acts and ideas of their leaders without due investigation because their mental balance is affected by the turmoil of events. Yet, some years later, when the war is over and true conditions are exposed, they will see their mistakes and praise that once abused leader for his wisdom and far-sightedness. Lincoln, that leader and martyr of the Civil War—even HE was criticized while guiding the nation through its most trying period. But when civil strife ended, leaving the North victorious, then and only then did the nation, both North and South, know and understand the greatness of Lincoln. So shall it be when this world war is over and people look back to the American fuel crisis. They will take into account the clogged condition of our transportation facilities, when one-third of railroad motive power had been sent to France. They will give credit to Garfield, the man who in a period of five or six weeks, by placing on the manufacturers what they termed a terrible hardship, actually dissolved this congestion of the railroads and placed the fuel where it was needed. They will honor the plain Administrator on whom this gigantic task was placed, for delivering the fuel at a cost much less than the price of a "practical" coal man would have exacted. It can never be said that Garfield allowed any man to profit from the fuel he administrated during the first year of the war. LITTLE THINGS THAT COUNT It was such a little thing, the sliding or pushing of a chair in front of him. But nobody in the room heard a thing that the professor was trying to say while the thoughtless student was exercising his tired legs. Watch Fobs Aren't So New a Fad After All Old Japanese Had 'Em Wore Them to Suspend Tobacco Case and Pocketbook or Vanity Box It is a fact that the earliest known Japanese-made belts were useful as well as ornamental. The ingenious Oriental fastened a cord to his personally carried utensils for feeding and fighting, tied up to his belt on one end and attached a convenient, recognizable hunk of ivory or wood on the other, ready on notice, and secure against loss. But the Japanese sculptor had no intention of going hungry. He turned his attention to the fob on the tobacco pouch and vanity box; under his hands the simple lump of wood or ivory became a thing of beauty, called Netsuke. He cut these ornaments from the bark of birds, insects, reptiles, people, and gods, with the utmost attention to details. Then the law requiring the image of a deity to be set in up every Japanese home was abolished and the idol makers found themselves idle. In our day, one can tell by the charm hanging listlessly on the gold watch chain stretched across the broad bay window of a stranger, whether he be be Mason, Eagle, Elk or Member of the Ancient Association of Amalganated Anthropologists. The old Oriental islander, upon meeting a man known by his netsuke in his belt, whether his patron divinity was Kwannon, Kongo-Satt'a or Fuko-Dio-Diu-Nioral. Among the many specimens in the Thayer Collection is the "Five Tortoises." It is a perfect imitation of the Japanese turtles, a larger one forming the base with four smaller ones above it. The department of zoology has pronounced the "Five Tortoises" anatomically correct. Another specimen is a statuette of a man with a puffed fish in a basket. A little legend goes with it. The fish is poisonous unless properly prepared. The man is hungry but does not eat. It is disgusting it and consequently is in despair. One thing, however, has remained in mystery down through the long centuries of the Netsuke's history. The use of this ancient bofen necessitated a customary punch and vanity box in plain sight, when every passer-by might see it. How did our "honorably" friend evade the toils of the inveterate moocher? Could he tell his acquaintance that he had nothing to smoke, when there it hung in broad daylight? Or could the fair coed refuse to loan the nose-dauber at her belt? HOTEL KUPPER Kansas City, Mo.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Fastidious Taste of Many Makes Slackers Objections to Liberty Bread are Unpatriotic Says Professor Bailey "The objections being voiced throughout the country concerning the use of liberty bread, containing only twenty-five per cent wheat flour, are due almost entirely to personal taste," says Prof. E. H. S. Bailey. "I consider it the patriotic duty of every American to use substitutes willingly. They are nourishing and wholesome, and the only objection to their use is the fact that the flavor is distasteful to some." The combinations of substitutes used in bread may be determined by the individual taste and the way in which individuals accustom themselves to the use of the various cereals. Experiments show that the important factor in making good bread with wheat substitutes is the kind and amount of flour substituted, and not the method of baking. Rice, oat, barley, and rye flowers make very satisfactory substitutes for wheat. Corn is not so successful, however, but can be used in certain proportions, properly mixed with other breads or foods. It has been found to be incomplete as a food used alone. Phi Delta Theta announces the pledging of Dean Floyd, junior law of Sedan.

In order to give the students who have to stay in Lawrence Easter holidays a little publicity, and save young men the trouble of calling up women who have gone home, the Kansan has compiled this list of "Stay-heres." Among those who will remain in Lawrence for obvious reasons, and who will exist on 10-cent rations are Vivian Sturgeon, Anne Stewart, Grace May, Alma Messing, Clarinda Ames, Mary Rhine, Ruth Bottomly, Margory Campbell, Irene Fowden, Margaret Walker, Martha Banker, Leila Clark, Ruth Rouse, Thelma Wharton, Elaine Wharton and Margaret Hodgson. From the list of men who will remain here it will be observed that the Pi U's and the Kappa Siga are harder up than anyone else on the Hill. The list follows: Willis Beltz, Lawson May, Carlton Ross, Earl Pickeller, James Tate, Horce Staggs, Enno Hook, George Welch, Horace Ammon, Victor Rogers, John Murphy, Lawrence Patuce Jock, Joe McNally, Earl McKinney, Francis Martin, Glen Ayes, Bert Myers, Francis Mawr, Carl Owen, Nettles, James Scott, M.

If your grades are poor, cheer up. Consider the success of Sid Moss, whom "Uncle Jimmy" has called the most consistent grade-getter in the School of Law, his grades invariably being threes. Moss is now aide-de-camp to Brigadier-General Malden at Camp Cody, N. M. His present rank is that of first lieutenant, but he has recently been recommended for a captaincy. Moss is a member of the Kanza fraternity. Read the Daily Kansan. "The whole effect was striking and French—" millinery Letter says Betsy Drew Sid Moss Gets There D DELLA, you know, is going to Florida. Of course she wanted a hat—one with a large brim to keep out the glare of the ocean, but at the same time striking enough to be worn at Palm Beach. So I took her to Mrs. Patterson's next door to Wiedie's, you know. There she found just the thing—a large French sailor with a wide brim of this new rough chrysanthemum braid. The hat was covered with the cleverest black and white French silk, and slipped thru the brim and the crown in the most fascinating manner imaginable, were two bright red pins. The whole effect was striking and French, and suitable for Lawrence as well as Palm Beach.

Outdoor Track Season Opens At McCook Field With Forty Men Out Enlistment of Erval Coffey Leaves a Place Open in Half Mile Nearly forty men are trying out for places on the University of Kansas track team, now that the outdoor track season has started. Many of them are using their track work this spring instead of the regular gymnasium or drill work. Erval Coffey, who recently enlisted, left a place open in the half mile and there are several new men out for a place in this event as well as in the two mile. Since the two mile race in Convention Hall several new runners are being used to pick a running mate for Hanna. Buffington and Oglevie are the best men out now besides Hanna. The men in the mile are also still doubtful, with Dewall and Hunt showing the best form. Last night Haddock and Lobaugh ran a close race in the 220-yard dash but the handicap given Lobaugh was too much and Haddock finished second. The quarter miller runners ran one lap and Shreve, Russell, Cleft, and Rodkey finished in a group. Murphy and Davison ran an easy half mile, Davison appearing to be the best half mile out since the Missouri disaster, more than a week ago. Coach W. O. Hamilton was at McCook yesterday afternoon starting the men and in giving pointers as to how they should get off on the short dashes. The track is loose and hard for the men to make much time on, but this condition is soon to be remedied by the caretakers. The running is especially sloppy on the inside track where most of it must be done. Freshman Nine Working To Meet Varsity Team Coach Weedell expects to have his regular squad picked in three or four days so the freshmen will be able to go up against the Varsity next week. The freshmen have some good men this spring and will give the Varsity a stuff fight. Harms and Pierce are two good pitchers on the first year squad. Murphey is playing a good game at short and looks好 for a place on the nine. Lyshy, Palmer, Waters, Linnersen, and Mack are good infolders. The last practice before the spring vacation will be held this afternoon. The men have gone through sessions of hitting, fielding, and base running this week and have the rudiments of the game well in hand. Coach Wedell has been teaching the men some of the fine points of the game so they will be able to Dutch Wedell, freshmen baseball coach, divided his squad into two teams last night for a four-inning game. The freshmen have been working on Hamilton Field since the close of the spring football practice.
