Copper Wire, Rubber and Tin foil Are Most Needed Articles
Always before saving has meant saving money. Now, money is a factor but material is also important, according to the K. U. salvage committee. This movement in the University is handling the material end of war save here. A drive is being made for all salvage on Saturday morning from 10 until 12 o'clock and cars will cover regular beats. "Have your salvage out on the front porch," said the committee.
Copper wire is the most valuable material that can be contributed. Next to that, rubber—especially rubber boots delights the committee. A call has been made for aluminum tops, which are now considered valuable, and old tops of fruit jars bring money from junk dealers.
The official salvage list of wants is: Copper wire, rubber, tin-foll, collapsible tubes, old gold and silver, and broken bits of jewelry, silver-plated water pitches, zinc pin, clean dry cell battery zinc, battery lead from storage batteries, cold cream jars, bottles, electric light bulbs.
Liberty Bond Flag Awarded University
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 1, 1918.
The University is to have a Liberty Loan, honor flag all its own.
Loan honor flag all its own.
It was not expected that the University as well as the city would get one but J. D. Bowersock, chairman of Douglas County in the drive, notified Prof. U. G. Mitchell this morning since K. U. had been the first to exceed its quota, he had asked for an honor flag for it and his request had been granted.
The flag will be delivered today and probably will be seen floating from the top of Fraser Hall soon.
The War Here and Over There
A pause has come in the fighting in Flanders. The German attack has been a failure and the British and French lines are holding their positions. The Allied War Council believe that the enemy will change its tactics and either confine all efforts to the present battle front or extend the actual fighting line on one end or the other to find a weak spot.
Today is national Thrift Stamp day and everyone is asked to accept Thrift stamps for change on all purchases made at stores, shops, newsstands, or any place where things are old. The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's office in Kansas City purchased 8,000 stamps to be sold by its agents.
In the great western offensive Germany is using forces of marvelous magnitude and driving power with a terrific loss of life. It is said that the Socialist and Militarist leaders conferred before the drife began, and the Radicals decided to make no objection to the offensive so long as the casualties did not exceed 1,500,000.
Car ferryes have been put into service between England and France so that British troops may be transported across the channel without leaving their trains. Considerable time will be saved by the ferries and much congestion at the ports will be prevented.
The entire cost of the American Civil War is being duplicated every 85 days in the present war and the cost of the Franco-Prussian war is equalled every five weeks.
It has been estimated by the department of Agriculture that the wheat crop planted last winter will give the United States approximately 142,000,000 more bushels than the 1916-17 winter acreage.
Almost one half million bushels of wheat are shipped each day to France by the Food Administration and the big army that America is putting in the field will greatly increase this amount.
Uncle Sam has insured well above 90 per cent of those in military and naval service of the country. This means that the largest insurance business in the world is now being conducted by the Bureau of War Risk Insurance in the Treasury Department at Washington.
Field of Engineering
Offers Work to Woman
The Western Electric Magazine devotes several pages this month to discussing openings in the engineering field for women. An electrical company at Ithaca recently trained several Vassar graduates, who had no specific technical training, for positions of switchboard engineering. The experiment has proved highly successful.
Members of the Vocational Committee of the Association of Collegegate Alumnae in Fraser Hall, Room 211, will be glad to discuss opportunities in this work with women who are interested.
Women have also shown themselves to be successful workers in the drafting rooms. This and architectural drawing will probably prove the most popular with women. A course in freehand drawing, followed by one in mechanical drawing, is the only specific training necessary. If the engineering courses also are taken, there are naturally more opportunities of advancement. The salaries in this work range from fifteen dollars a week to one hundred and twenty-five dollars a month.
Forcing Frosh to Wear Night Shirts on Campus Must Stop—Patterson
Further Enforcements Of Cap Tradition Will Result in Suspension
Loyal Yearlings Wear Caps
Students Favor Cap Enforcement; Tradition All Right, Acting Dean Says
The latest method of law students in attempting to enforce first year students to uphold the Freshman Cap Tradition by dressing each offender in a nice shirt on the campus, will end in soession of the students implicated if repetition of the act accu according to Prof. D. Pattison, acting dean of the Coi-
Since April 1, when freshmen were asked to be wearing the diminutive headgear, many yearlings have appeared on the campus without wearing the cap and asserted they would not do so, because upperclass students had no way of enforcing the rule.
The law students today attempted to enforce the rule by dressing freshmen who did not wear their caps in nightclothes and then requesting them to walk to Spooner Library. Apparently they did not think that this method was in violation of the Senate ruling regarding physical violence.
"I think a warning to the students implicated in this matter will keep them from repeating the acts," said Acting-Dean Patterson, this morning. "A repetition will end in suspension of the guilty students. The method of enforcing the tradition is in direct violation of the Senate rule."
There is nothing wrong in the spirit of the freshman cap tradition, which has been a staple of the university.
Paddling was favored overwhelmingly last year in a vote conducted by the Daily Kansan to get the opinion of all students in the University. Then the University Senate passed the rule for paddling biddings, hazing, and all forms of physical violence to "enforce student regulation."
Competitive Drill to Be Big Feature of Y.M.C.A. Stag Thursday Evening
Wide Range of Entertainment Is Promised by Committee Chairman
The tickets are selling rapidly in every fraternity, club and rooming house in the city and it is expected that this party will be the largest one of the stag variety ever held in the University. Harold Hall, secretary of A. Employment Bureau, is in charge of the sale of tickets.
That the K. U. Stag given by the University Y. M. C. A. at Robinson gymnasium Thursday night of this week, will draw nearly every man in school is the promise given today by George S. Bailey, president of the association. More than 200 tickets have already been sold.
An excellent two-hit feed is promised by Fred Jenkins, chairman of the
The program will be varied and will include wrestling matches, boxing contests, musical numbers, and a universal "mixer." The athletics will be handled by Bus Jensen, a student of the School of Law, who has recently been put in charge of all of the University gymnasium classes.
The biggest drawing feature of the party will be a competitive drill in which every company of the University regiment will compete. A ten dollar feed at a Hill Cafe for the winning company will follow th close of the Stag party. Judges for the drilling will be under the supervision of Colonel E. M. Briggs. The companies are drilling in the gym each afternoon to become accustomed to the smaller space.

Schools Name Talkers To Voice Grievances Annual Student Day
Compulsory Military Drill and Method of Exemption May Be Criticized
To students of the University:
The annual student day convo-

Student Day, the one day of the school year when students meet together to discuss and criticize affairs of the University, will be observed next Friday afternoon, May 3. The meeting will be in Fraser Chapel at 4 o'clock. Each school will be represented by an student speaker.
--where the 'Put-it-offs' abide." —Exchange
Four schools have chosen their speakers so far. Burney Miller will express the woes and suggestions of members of the College. The School of Engineering will be represented by Warren Neumann. The School of Medicine's representative is Carl Newman and L. R. Hamilton will speak for the School of Law. Herschel Washington, president of the Men's Student Council, will preside at the meeting. Washington asks that the other schools elect their sneakers immediately.
It has been customary for the speakers at Student Day meetings to point out the wrongs of students of the University. The faculty usually come in for many criticisms.
Compulsory physical exercise and the cases of students withdrawn from classes for non-attendance at exercise, will probably be the chief subjects raised this year.
Time Limit Is Put On Credit for Farm Worl
Proportional Grades Given All Who Leave for Home Before May 6
Students who wish to withdraw from the University for farm work and receive credit will have to make arrangements before May 6, according to Dean D. L. Patterson. After that time no credit will be given for farm work. Those who withdraw before then will be given only pronotional credit.
In order to withdrawn for farm work with credit, students must work on the farms of parents or relatives, and they must show letters from their parents stating they are seeded on the farm. Proportional credit will be given, that is, a student who leaves a five-hour course about the middle of the semester will be given about three hours of credit.
This year there is not such a need for farm labor. Students who return next year must present a statement from their parents that they were actually employed on farms.
Only six students have withdrawn for farm work so far this year. Last year many withdrew to work on farms because of the wheat crop failure in many parts of the state and because the government asked for the aid of all persons possible to help on the farms.

Because of the green grass and the songs of the birds and the usual gullibility of freshmen voters, most political hangers-on around the polls yesterday failed to reckon with ley winds that whistled at the corners of Snow Hall and other unprotected places. Several candidates who went home after their overcrows and many "frat" freshmen were drafted by their upperclass brothers.
As one remarked, "Gee, this spring weather is cold. I wish it would get warm like it was last Christmas."
Not This Wild
A certain professor was speaking of the rural simplicity of our sunflower state, especially along its western frontier. He even made the assertion that it would be difficult to find a real piece of furniture in that untailed domain.
"Say," came the indignant voice of a fair co-ed, "where do you think I live? Some dug-out?"
Work is never shunned if only recompense is certain. So think the Political Gangs.
Much labor and energy was spent Sunday night by the feminine wing of one political organization, in trying to get their opponent's posters off the University sidewalks and to have all trace of the Opposition gone before the unsuspecting students arrived.
"Press Sorority Elects Officers" was a headline in a recent paper. The story explained the press sorority to be Theta Sigma Phi. K. U. men will be glad to have definite information as to just which organization is the press sorority.
Two charitable students were discussing the University Students' adoption of French orphans.
Mary—What was the name of the orphan you-gave money to support?
Jane—I don't know. How could I 'nd out?
Mary- The name of mine was printed on the bottom of my bag. I vave
When Jane went home she looked

Holland just now is in a position to appreciate the meaning of the phrase, "between the devil and the deep blue sea."
WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1918
Germany after the war may find that she has inherited Turkey's title as "the Sick Man of Europe." Already one Turkish title has fallen. Gladstone referred to "the Unspeakable Turk." Now it is "the Unspeakable Hum."
BUT THEY DO THINK
Since war came and boys became men to die like men for men, the University has been different. Life here has a new center, a new goal. Little wonder, then, that student elections yesterday were a deliberate passionless observance of incidental duty. Contests were few, all contestants were worthy, nobody said much or did much, and possibly there might be a just accusation of indifference.
But it was not indifference. One supreme interest put this election along with other things in due subordinate place. Too many have gone to do the one thing that must be done, too sure is the obligation that lies just ahead of those still here, for anyone to give time to seizing ordinary generous honors that belong to common duties. When seniors lay aside cap and gown for khaki and gun, every last man behind them does some thinking and is living wholly in the world of today, sensible of what is required of him.
No longer can one lose himself in the cloistered calm of academic isolation from the affairs of men; no longer can one play the games, the big and little games of yesterday. The University is different too. It is now a part of the world instead of apart from the world. Loyal sons are being put in immediate readiness. At last they do think; they do understand why they are here.
Another person who can probably appreciate Sherman's definition of war is the student who has spent four years majoring in German in preparation for a position as high school teacher.
BOOK AGENT OR FARM HAND?
There was a time when the student with means could take a trip to the mountains or the seashore, or perhaps stay at home, with nothing much to do but sleep late of mornings, mow the lawn at noon, and take a spin in father's car in the evening. There was once a time also, when the student without means but with a generous "gift of gab" could go out during the summer and sell books or maps and lay by enough money to put himself through another year of school.
That day, however, is past. The
country is at war now, and is calling for every loyal citizen to engage in some kind of productive employment. Thousands of men have gone from the industries into the army and the navy. Someone must take their places. Large war industries have been created, and someone must do he work in the shipyards and muntion factories. Someone must plant the corn and harvest the wheat crop and work in the kitchen. All must work together to back the boys in the trenches, for this is not only their war, but our war. They must be backed to the uttermost, and that is not being done as long as able-minded able-bodied men and women fritter away their time in idleness or engage in semi-parasitical employment.
As between the fellow behind you at the lecture who insists on talking and a phonograph, the difference is in favor of the phonograph. You can shut it off.
SPY LAWS OR MOB RULE?
It has been estimated, by those in a position to know, that there are upwards of ten thousand German spies active in the United States at the present time. Whether this estimate is correct or not is uncertain, but crimes apparently intended to halt the country's war preparations, and the large amount of hostile propaganda being circulated throughout the states, give proof of the elbow-ateness of the spy system in operation here. In spite of protests from the public, officials have been unable to root out the evil.
The United States has seen her factories reduced to ashes; her shipyards wrecked by explosions; her loan measures hampered, until the public, alarmed at the extent of spy operations has begun to take matters into its own hands. Already mob law in numerous cases has been called up to mete out punishment for disloyal offenders, and, in one case at least, a public lynching has occurred. Unless Congress enacts legislation providing for adequate and immediate punishment for agents of Germany, mob rule is likely to become common rather than exceptional, and as is always the case with mob rule, many innocent parties will have to suffer with the guilty ones.
The world is full of inventions to save time. None are needed, however, to help waste it. Man is sufficient unto himself for that.
1776-1918
The descendants of the compatriots of Washington and Paul Jones are fighting once again side by side with the descendants of Lafayette and Rochambeau. The time and opportunity have come for a nation to pay a great debt of gratitude for service rendered in great national need and America is paying France the debt she long has owed.
In the Revolutionary War for the freedom of America the French fought on American soil under the command of an American. Today in the war for the freedom of France and for the preservation of liberty to America, and indeed to all the world, Americans fight on French soil under the supreme command of a Frenchman. The honors are even and the honors are great.
No true American who knows the history of his country and loves the honor of his country but thrills at the thought of the American army in France. The invincible Americans will turn the tide of war; they will bring to France and her allies a victory for liberty such as France assisted us to win, and repay with interest a debt to liberty and to France long owing and honorably acknowledged—Daily Filii.

"With the form 'chef' we have: 'chef', head-cook; 'chef', head man; 'achieve', to bring to a head, to finish; 'mischief', a bad result, something that ends badly; and 'kerchief'. That last is a peculiar word. The 'ker' is the same as the 'cur' in 'curfew', which was the Norman French for 'couvre-feu', cover the fire. So a kerchief was first a head covering, then, when it was thrown back in fair weather, it became a 'neck-kerchief', and when removed entirely they called it 'handkerchief'. Our modern article is therefore a pocket-hand-head-covering.
"There is an aristocratic Greek branch of the 'cap' family that spells its name 'cephal' and includes such members as 'megalocephalous,' 'big-head,' and 'acephelous,' headless. There is also a very unaristocratic and unrecognized members in the 'base' of our old slang expression, 'you're off your base.' 'Base' is said to have originated in the Southwest and came from the Spanish 'cabeza,' meaning 'head.' The unaccented and meaningless first and last syllables sloughed off in English and left 'base.'

WOMEN AND THE WAR
University women interested in the positions open to them are described in this column may get more details about the work and conditions by applying to Miss Margaret Lynn, of the Department of English.
Approximately 20,000 women have been placed in positions through the Federal Employment Service since February 1. Munition factories have received the greatest number of woman workers supplied by the Federal Service. The majority of women applying for employment ask for work in the war industries. Nearly every city in the country reports difficulty in obtaining women for housework and other branches of domestic service.
Women are eligible for the open competitive examination for the position of acting assistant surgeon announced by the United States Civil Service Commission. The vacancies are in the public health service, at salaries ranging from $1,800 to $2,500. Those appointed—will be expected to make physical examination of female workers and immigrants, conduct sanitary surveys, and perform other duties of routine character.
At present there are vacancies in Washington, D. C., and at Madison, Wis., for library assistants, women being eligible for these positions. The United States Civil Service Commission announces an open competitive examination for these positions, May 22 and June 19. The salaries range from $500 to $1200 a year. Applicants must have had one year's training in a recognized library school, or one year in a training class in a modern library plus one year's experience, or else three years' experience. Applicants should apply at once.

Demand For Red Cross Nurses Opens Places For Untrained Women
St. Luke's Hospital of Kansas City, Mo., Would Instruct Beginners
Women are wanted to take the place of trained nurses who are going into Red Cross service abroad, according to a communication received by Miss Margaret Lynn from Clara L. Tulloss, superintendent of St. Luke's hospital in Kansas City, Mo.
"In order to meet the increased estimate of nurses required for our country's service," she writes, "every graduate nurse must feel a personal responsibility. It is the duty of every efficient, able-educated graduate nurse." Red Cross nurse be ready and willing to do her part in this time of need.
"On the other hand, we must replace the trained nurses who are fitted for Red Cross service and are going to the front, by conscientious and ambitious, untrained women.
"Every true American woman is eager to render real service to her country; but we are so far from the actual warfare that I believe we do not realize, as the noble women of the Allies realize, that we must step into this arena, and serve us at home in order to release the trained workers for service overseas.

Write to Soldiers Aged Sylvia Advises
"I see afraid you ain't goin' to get that wish, dear," said Aunt Sylvia, as she shuffled the grimy cards after the young University woman had cut three times. "I see afraid you won't get that wish, but here's another chance for you. Cut three times again, and make that there same wish and we'll see."
Aunt Sylvia, the old negro woman who reads cards in North Lawrence, is sympathetic, for she knows the heartaches and aspirations of a generation of University students. She listens patiently while they tell their troubles.
Aunt Sylvia was born in Arkansas. After the war, she was deported to Kansas, and arrived in Lawrence just after the Quantrell Raid when the citizens of the town were living in
tents until they could rebuild their homes.
"Yeah, I remember the Slave War," said Aunt Sylvia gravely. "It was terrible, but it ain't nothing to this one. I just can't feel right about this war, and I see afraid that when it's over there will be another one. The next one will be here in this country — another civil war. It's awful to think of all them nice boys going across the water. I hate to see my friends from the University go. I just can't feel right about it."
Aunt Sylvia has a cat, a white one, that sits on her callers' knees or else lurks in a corner. If the cat likes the visitor, the fortune is usually propitious, but if the cat fails to approve him, he is lost.
"I're sorry," says Aunt Sylvia, "but you are bawn unlucky, and unless you you're mighty careful, you're going to have a lot a trouble. I see sorry and I hope you will be careful."
It is well to make friends with the cat, who is a socially inclined cat, by the way, and only the most hardened villains cause it to remain in the corner under the picture of Booker T. Washington. That picture is evidently a cherished possession, for it is kept free from dust and hangs where the best light from the tiny window will fall upon it. Up above, over the door leading into the little kitchen, is a horse shoe shining with silver paint, and a big old-fashioned clock hangs on the wall nearby. Rag rugs are on the floor, a patchwork quilt on the bed, and a scuttle full of cobs sets by the stove. The house is old. It was built when Aunt Sylvia first came to Lawrence. But it is warm and cozy. It is quiet now, for the seven pickinny's that used to run about it are grown, and the son of one of them has just been drafted. Aunt Sylvia is afraid to have him go, but she is proud of him.

Tentative Team Picked To Meet Aggies Friday; Tryout Time Very Slow
Rice Believed Certain Winner in High Jump—May Enter In Javelin Throw
Distance Events Are Weak
Runners Show Lack of Training Caused by Recent Cold Weather
A tentative line-up of the men who will be taken to Manhattan Friday to meet the Kansas Aggies in track was selected yesterday afternoon. Many of the runners showed the lack of training which the cold and rainy weather of the last two weeks has caused. The time was slow in every event except in the quarter yich Clift won in 54 flat. Lobaugh was second in this dash running it in 54:1 seconds, while Ralph Rodkey came in third in 54:2. Russell ran against Davidson and made the distance in 55 seconds, Davidson covering it in 57 seconds.
The time in the half was slow, Murphy not running, and only one man being timed. In the mile, Deewall had the field to himself, but made it in 4:51. Hunt, the other mile athlete, is recovering from an operation which will keep him out of track when he returns to the field means that K U, probably will have only one mile man for the rest of the season.
Oglewie walked off from the field in the two mile try-outs and won in 11 minutes 3 seconds. Hanna was a poor second in 11 minutes 26 seconds and Buffington was third, three seconds behind Hanna. This does not compare favorably with the Aggie runners, who have been making the disheartening decision better. But in the man, Deewall looks like a first place man. The half looks good for at least a first and possibly a second-for Kansas.
Armel and Hobart look like the only capable men in the hurdles unless an unknown turns up at the last moment. Haddock and Lobaugh will handle a 100-yard and a 220-yard CLIP; they also be entered in the 220-yard dash.
Howard is the only man left for the pole vault and is capable of 11 feet. Rice is a certain first place winner in the high jump and Howard will also enter this event. In the broad jump last night, Ralph Rodkey did the best jump—20 feet 3 inches. Lost to Michael Broussard he form but made only 19 feet 6 inches. Howard is another promising possibility in the broad jump.
The relay team will be picked from Lohaugh, Murphy, Russell, Rodkey, Clift, and Haddock. The Agrigies have not shown much of a relay team this season and it looks like a safe bet for Kansas.
In the weights, Liggett and Haddock have been doing the best work so far this season. If the javelin event is used in the meet Rice probably will enter it because he did good work in the Penn Relay games last Saturday in winning third place from a large field.

Freshmen Trim Varsity In Practice for Game With Emporia Normals
Yearlings Bunch Hits and Get Four Runs on Regular String Men
In the final workout before the game with the Emporia Normals on McCook field tomorrow, Coach "Dutch" Wedell's freshmen team trimmed the Varsity by a 4 to 0 score. The affair went six innings, the fresh taking the lead with two runs in the second inning. The Varsity, while playing a good fielding game, failed to deliver the necessary blows with men on bases to win the game.
Schoepel was on the mound for the Varsity and pitched well considering that this was his first appearance in the box since the Normal game in Emporia two weeks ago. The freshmen bunched the few hits they got off him, however, for the four runs that won the game. Marxen pitched excellent ball for the yearlings and had the Varsity guessing most of the time. He also contributed to his own victory by pounding out two solid blows which accounted for three of the frosh runs.
The Varsity used their first string line-up which will probably be used against Emporia tomorrow, with the exception of the pitcher. Bunn worked behind the bat, Schoeppel was in the box, Cherry played first base, Isenberg second, Foster at short and Lonborg at third. Weltmer, Oyster and Keeler made up the out-field. The field of both teams was good, but the feature of the afternoon's play was a one-handed catch of Bonigno's terrific drive over second by Murphy, freshman short stop. This play robbed Lonborg of a double and the Varsity of a run or possibly two.

The team is in good condition for the battle with Coach Hargiss' Emporians and is determined to take the game and definitely settle the question of superiority between the two teams, as the game at Emporia two weeks ago resulted in a 4 to 4 tie. Slawson is due to start in the box for Kansas and it is probable that Coach Hargiss will send Rehm to the firing line for the Normals. Rehm pitched the tie game.

Fraternities and Clubs Join to Help Eliminate All Wasting of Food
Boarding Houses Are Making Every Possible Effort to
Conserve
The special meeting called Tuesday afternoon of house mothers of sororites and fraternities and the boarding house women to consider the food situation, was well attended. The boarding house members of the loyalty of the representation.
The meeting was called as a result of the statement that Clarence Hall, Douglas County food administrator, has found tusks of bread as garbage being discarded from sorority houses. Mr. Hall said he did not say that this came from a sorority, or fraternity, or boarding house, or from a cafe, but simply that it came from the University district.
The recommendation was made that there be a meeting of all cooks of the city at the court house, that they would work together along the lines of food conservation.
There was constant reiteration of the necessity of conservation for the men in Europe. Mr. Hall did not mention the problems, lacking, but simply by avoiding waste.
From the discussion it was evident all these houses are stamily supporting the food administration, and their conservation is evident from their use of bread crusts and crums, old bread, little sugar, and less of the unnecessary elements of liet.
The Federal Food Administration is asking that refreshments be abolished, except when they take the place of a meal. It was suggested that there be a meeting of the Panhellenic Councils called for both men and women to discuss the matter with the government in order to meet agreed to use their influence in the elimination of refreshments.

"What is the name-of the hall with all those chimneys sticking up around it?" asked a visitor.
Delegates Will Be Here From Kansas City for Dinner-Dance Tonight
Yesterday was the first day of the convention, and the delegates were entertained at a smoker. This afternoon the delegates will arrive on a special car from Kansas City, to be entrained at a dinner dance in the F. A. U. Hall. One of the important speakers of the evening will be Doctor Glass-cock, well-known nerve specialist of Kansas City. The other two guests and the dance are the Supreme Grand Secretary of the fraternity, from Harrisville, Mo., and Doctor Shilton, Dr. Sam Roberts, and Dr. Harry Berger, all of Kansas City.
Delegates from the thirty-four chapters of Phi, Beta Pi, medical fraternity, are in Kansas City for their annual convention today.
Tomorrow, the delegates will return to Kansas City to hold their final banquet at the Muehlebach Hotel.
The chapter was installed at Lawrence, March 19, 1910.
Faculty Mandolin Club And Drill Companies Ready For K. U. Stag
Prize Given Drill Companies to Be Spent for Feed for Company
Competitive drill of the University companies, the University hand and several boxing matches will be the big features of the K. U. Stag given under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. at Robinson Gymnasium tonight.
Company
About 300 tickets have already been sold and all the returns from the ticket sellers are not in. Men are selling tickets in every fraternity and boarding house in town. Harold Hall, who is in charge of the sale of the tickets, says that from present indications this will be the biggest stag ever held in the University.
The University band will be out in full force and the Faculty Mandolin Club, led by Dean G. C. Schand will give severallections. Phil Hays will be present with his guitar and his usual wit and humor.
The athletic stunts will be in charge of Bus Jensen. They will include several boxing and wrestling matches and probably some work on the bars. Dave Davidson has issued a challenge that he can throw any three men in the University in thirty minutes. So far the Y. M. management has been unable to find three men to accept the challenge.
Another feature will be competitive drill of the four companies for a prize of ten dollars. The prize money will be used for a feed for the company after the stag. Refreshments of pike and salmon are provided. The stag will close with the Crimson and Blue and a Rock Chalk led by Fred Leach, the new cheerleader.
Election hand bills distributed over the town and campaigning by placing notices containing the names of candidates on the trees and sidewalks will have to be discontinued according to an ordinance that was passed by the city council Monday night.
New City Ordnance
Forbids Hand Bills
Mayor Kreeck, immediately after his installation introduced an ordinance prohibiting the circulation of any sort of hand bills through the streets of the city unless they had first been approved by the city clerk, who would issue a permit in such cases as he deemed advisable.
The ordinance was passed on second reading and took effect May 1,
According to the officers of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, their regular meeting which is to be held tonight will not interfere with the K. U. Stag. A review of the American Machinist will be given by Gibson, of the Railway Maintenance, by Bunn, and of Marine Engineering, by Rupard. The meeting is to be held in Room 201 of Marvin Hall at 8 o'clock.
Women's Glee Club Will Give Concerts For Funston Troops

Club Leaves Lawrence Friday at 11:52—To Stay in Manhattan
The Women's Glee Club will leave Friday noon for Camp Funston. The members will meet at the Union Pacific Station at 11:30. Mrs. W. B. Downing will chaperon the fifty-eight girls who will make the trip.
The first concert will be given in Camp Funston Friday night in the Nebraska Building. Because of a conflict of engagements it will be impossible for the club to return to Manhattan in time to sing for the Masonic Hall on Friday. Other concert will be given Saturday afternoon in the Kansas Building.
The program given here a few weeks ago will be sung at Furston with the addition of several patriotic selections. A violin quartet will accompany the club and give additional concerts. The Jazz Band has several new numbers and will assist in the concerts.
Members of the club will be entertained at the sorority houses in Manhattan. As the concerts will be concluded Saturday afternoon, any that wish to may return to Lawrence on the evening train.
Annual Spring Concert
Given By K.U. Band
Concert Closes Especially Successful Season in Spite of Members In Service
The K. U., band gave its annual spring concert yesterday evening in Fraser Chapel. A good crowd attended and the splendid work and interest shown by the members was much appreciated.
The trombone solo by Jay Hargelt was especially well given. The selection, "What Are You Going To Do To Help the Boys," by the band, was a feature of the program.
The program closes a very successful season in spite of the fact that many of the old members are now in Sand. Sand will play commencement week.
Poets Are Threatened With End of Contest
First warning came at noon today that the Kansan prize poem contest was in imminent danger of closing down. Delinquent manuscript came in with rays of light as the opening poem had finished noon lunch it came in a body to inspect.
The reason for the warning was word from the back office that it was getting to an end of patience with poetry and would quit setting the stuff. The ultimatum was dated and a time limit set. What this has not been divulged, and the editors of the contest say won't be, because a compromise was made by which the end of the contest is announced; however, that the contest is liable to come to an abrupt end almost any time any day now. The judges do no want to read too much copy any more than do the linetype men want to fuss with it. When all hands say "Nuff"—the editors have agreed to stop depredations on Bellerophon's stables.
Courses Begin Soon In Teachers' Training
Prof. H. A. Kent, director of war work under the Smith-Hughes act, and Cramer, of the Federal Board for Vocational Education, visited the University Wednesday to inspect the facilities of the University for training teachers for home economics and trades and industries. The University was named among institutions authorized to do such work by the State Board of Education at a meeting on April 29.
Money for carrying on this work has been provided by the Smith-Hughes act recently passed by Congress. Work in economics, trades and industries will be taught at the University, and the Normal Schools at Emory and Pittsburg.
The Normal School at Hays will train teachers in agriculture. Courses in vocational training will probably soon, Chancellor Frank Strong says.
Three Earthquakes Recorded In April
The past month was much cooler than the usual April, only four Aprils within the last fifty years, have had a lower average temperature. It was also very calm, as in only one other year, 1916, was the total run of wind for April smaller. The daily velocity of wind this last month was 194 miles, and the hourly velocity was 8.1 miles. The highest velocity was 28.3 miles an hour from 4:30 to 4:17 p. m. on the 28th. The total rainfall was slightly less than that expected for the month and that of February, 1918, are the only months since April, 1917, which have had the usual amount of rainfall.
The University seismograph recorded three earthquake during the month. On April 9th, April 17th, and on April 21st.
Plain Tales From The Hill
BULLETIN FROM FRONT!
FRONT
As the sheet goes to press, word comes that the laws have taken the law into their own hands and are going to resort to wood kindling to decide their case of "Freshman Cap vs. K. U."
"Thou shall not use force," said Prof. D. L. Patterson to the laws yesterday when they were trying to get a freshman to wear the "fem" attire. Professor Patterson noticed the confusion in front of the law building and leisurely strolled over and protected the freshmar
"Mr. Glasco you do stand for such work as when it is against the rulings of the Senate?" questioned the dean. "Let me have your names gentlemen to report this violation of the present rules."
Before Dean Patterson made another move he was surrounded by laws each trying to protect the case, "Patterson versus Law Students." Attorneys for the defendants have not been chosen yet as there are so many capable men to pick from.
"If ever it is necessary for folks to make a prayer for a baptism of common sense," according to one dean, "it is when they're courting."

He had been delegated to sell tickets at his house, for a coming dance. A wily politician also gave him a number of cards to distribute. They became mixed up, and the dance tickets were given out here and there on the campus. Who were the lucky ones?
Two mice, tied together with a string and dropped on the floor at the Pi Phi house in the midst of a peaceful circle, broke up the family circle. More noise has not been aroused there for some time.

The latest development occurred on the train as he was returning from his Easter vacation. He became acquainted with an elderly lady on train. He found she lived in the same town with her aunt. When he told her this the elderly lady said, "Is she a colored lady?"
This is the conclusion reached by Jack Johnson, c'21, after several experiences. Every time somebody introduces him he is immediately asked if he is any relation to the famous prize flyer. But this has come to be an old story and it no longer worries him.

Dean Templin Returns From Federal Food Service in Washington
Important Work Done In Collegeate Section of Food Administration
May Talk At Convocation
it is Thought He Will Remain Here for Reminder of School Year
Word has been received that Dean Olm Templin, who has been in Washington in the services of the Federal Food administration since January, will return to the University the first of next week, probably Monday. Dean Templin has held the important office of Director of the Collegiate Section of the United States Food Administration in Washington and has been the chief federal food administrator, for five months. The work of Dean Templin has been of great value and has won credit for the University.
Dean Templin has been in Washington on leave of absence from the University, but it is expected at present he will remain here the rest of the school year. However, according to Chancellor Strong, it has not been definitely decided. He has written of many of his interesting experiences and it is possible that a convocation tour should be told the University of the war work in Washington. As director of the College Section he has had the opportunity to see the inside working of the various phases of food control.
Dean Templin is at present attending the University of Illinois at Urbana.
K.U. Women's Land Army To Aid Farmers Wives As Well As Farmers
Women Co-operating With Collegiate Alumnae Suffrage Association
The University Woman's Land Army, a part of the Woman's Land Army of America, has taken the first steps toward its final organization. At present tentative chairmen have been chosen for every county in the state, and these chairmen are to be the centers around which the farmers and the women who wish to help on the farms are to meet.
It is the plan of the organization to have units in each county from which the farmers can obtain help. University women are to be the captains of these units.
Mrs. Theodore Saxon, of Topeka, state chairman for Kansas of the Woman's Land Army, spoke to the executive committee of the University organization yesterday afternoon. She told of the work which had already been done in the Eastern colleges last year, and what they were planning to do this year.
"Training camps have been established for the captains in New York and Illinois," she said, "and Bryn Mawr has raised enough money to run a training program for women can learn their work before actually going out as a paid laborer."
Mrs. Saxon said the most practical appeal to the farmers is the help untrained women can give the farmer's wife in the house so she can be released to the work that requires more skill.
The Women's Land Army is co-operating with the Collegiate Alumnae, the State Suffrage Association, and the Woman's Council of Defense.
Dr. Ida H. Hyde is conducting the work here. Minnie Moody will supply any information to women interested in this work.
Work On Dykstra's Roof Resumed This Morning
Operations in lowering the roof of Prof. C. A. Dykstra's barn-garage were resumed this morning. The roof of the barn garage is being lowered approximately four feet. Shingles on a small section of the roof were badly charred several weeks ago when a stab at the alley from the barn-garage burned. New shingles are to replace the damaged shingles as soon as the lowering of the roof is finished.

The war;—nothing else matters.
What did the preachers and lecturers find to talk about before the war began?
K. U.S HONOR FLAG
Again the University has gone over the top. The granting of an honor flag to the University for being the first Douglas County organization to exceed its quota in the Third Liberty Loan, is just another reminder that the University realizes the seriousness of the war, and realizing that seriousness, is willing to do not only its duty, but more than its duty.
Already more than thirteen hundred K. U. men have gone into the war, the majority of them as officers and non-commissioned officers. The Friendship Loan Fund, and the First and Second Liberty Loans were oversubscribed, and now the Third Liberty Loan has not been only over subscribed, but doubled. The University is bound up in the war, and in the future, as in the past, can be counted on to do more than its share.
THEY KNOW THEY CAN'T
The people who rush to a movie or a lecture early to get an end seat can also be counted on to grumble if they have to move to let others in.
Germany used to be ready with ultimatums. The Dutch are the first to have to wait for one. This is significant.
Not that an ultimatum will never come to the Dutch, or that Germany has any turning from bloodlust That 'would be astounding. Rather the German has calculated his strength and found it insufficient to ride over one more nation just now, especially one like Holland. The coward must have assurance before he will strike. The lack of assurance evident now tells the story of receding German power.
Holland, neutral and non-contributive of materials for war to belligerents, is the hope of the Allies. Holland or any other nation not in the way of more pressing military business is the present German desire. But Germany's hesitation at provoking Holland rests on more than immediate desire; it may devolve on possible adverse eventualities.
The Dutch-German frontier is a vital point in the very left side of Germany. Should it be exposed to a concentration of Allied strength brought up to do more than just support Holland, a jabbing shaft might be projected into the heart of the empire, far back of the German main line of offense. The Germans can take no such chances. They know they can't.
The war; nothing else matters.

HERE are some of the reasons because all wool wears longer than cotton and wool mixtures; because it holds its shape better; tailors better and stays stylish.

Because of these things, all-wool clothes save time, labor, materials and money; and right now our country needs those things.
That's why we sell all wool clothes and why you should buy them; they're best for you and what's best for you is best for us.

So All May Know
To the Editor:
Students are zealous of the reputation of the University for its hospitable spirit to guests, why should not professors display at least common courtesy to strangers-within-the-gates?
For that matter, if hospitality be lacking, individual rights should guarantee any citizen of the State of Kansas the right to sit peacefully in any class-room of the University during the recitation of a class.
An instructor in the French department assumed the privilege of autoratically dismissing a guest, a young woman, from class on Monday morning of this week. It was not even his class, but one in which he was substituting for an absent fellow instructor.
MENTAL LAPSES
A Senior.
After visiting a nephew in Boston an old gentleman from Maine stopped in front of a movie-theater poster displaying pictures of lions, tigers,
elephants and other beasts of the jungle.
"Good gracious, Richard!" he exclaimed, "I am glad I leave town toorrow."
Whereupon the old gentleman pointed to the poster and repeated its legend:
"Why?" asked the nephew, surprised.
"To be released on Monday'."
The novice was not enjoying his first trip through the air, and his companion regarded him with some amusement.
"I say, Bill, what's on your mind?" "I was thinking about Abraham Lincoln," replied Bill thoughtfully. "Abraham Lincoln?"
"Yes. How truthfully he spoke when he said a man's legs should be just long enough to reach to the ground."
PLEASANT CONTRAST
"Mike."
"I was just thinkin'. After we get out of the trenches an' back home again how nice an' peaceful that old boiler-factory will sound to us."—Southern Woman's Magazine.
"Mike. "Phwat."
"My husband has no faults; he doesn't gamble and he doesn't drink." "Doesn't he smoke, either?"
"Well, after a good dinner he may light a cigar, but that's only about once in six weeks."

Dr. Naismith Writes Home While Shells Are Falling On Paris
Former Gym Prof. Acquires Frenchy Taste in Food—Is Well Fed
Poilu Knew Some Americane—
Naismith Could Nearly

Trades English For French
"I am getting quite Frenchy in my eating," writes Dr. James Naismith of the University faculty now in Y. M. C. A. war work in France. "My dinner today was:
"That is as near as I can remember it, and it was all good and well cooked. I have not received my bread tickets yet and I will not get them until I return, as we get bread only when we are in camp. We get all we want to eat here and the soldiers are well fed, with bread and plenty of butter.

with bread and pennies.
"I met a k. U. boy today, Burt Walsh, 1889-1900, who is now in Y.
M. C. A. work.
"I suppose you will read almost as I am writing that we are being bombarded, big shells dropping in Paris every twenty minutes. They make a terrific explosion and scatter things around quite a bit, but there is no sign of panic or anything of the kind. I have no idea where they come from. The newspapers say they come from seventy-five miles away, but this seems an impossibility. However, we shall know before long all about it. I cannot see any good of bombarding Paris while the big drive is on."
Doctor Naismith thanked his family for knitted things sent him. He says the wristlests and helmet will be very valuable during October and November, for those months are the most severe over there. Paris, he says, is still itself, and very enthusiastic about the American uniform.
"I like the French people very much," Doctor Naismith writes, "they are so kind and friendly. Today we sat down with two French sailors, and as we had no bread cards they gave us one each, although they would have to go without some other day. That little act drew us together. One could speak a few words of English and we could piece it out with a few words of French. One of them asked me the French for salt, and I told him. Then he asked for pepper, knife, fork, spoon, and then a plate, and I was stuck. I never had had occasion to ask for a plate, though I knew it the minute he said the word. You ought to see us sit reading a menu, referring to our little dictionaries to find what a new dish is."

The schools entering track men are: Hiawata, Oseweg, Lawrence, McPherson, Valley Falls, Winfield, Pratt, Iola, Abilene, Burlingame, Kincad, Eskridge, Paxico, Harveyville, Perry, Florence, Seneca, Bea Plaine, Axtell, Marquette, Moran, LaCygne, Leavenworth, Moulton, Ozark and Topeka will send men but their entrances have not arrived.
Many high schools of the state are closing early this year to allow the men to do farm work and this accounts for the small list of entries for the meet. Fraternities are caring for the men Saturday.

Two K.U. Athletes Won Trophies in Penn Games
Two elaborate silver medals and a gold watch is the list of trophies which the two K. U. men brought back from the Penn Reliant Games in Philadelphia last week. Carl Rice got a silver medal for winning third place in the javelin throw and an engraved gold watch for winning first in the high jump from a field of twenty-five jumpers. Two six-feet-two men were in the meet but they had the same trouble Rice did in getting a good leap from the soft turf. But Rice had the jump that won.
Marshall Haddock won third in the pentathlon and got a silver medal similar to the one Rice won. It was the first time that a K. U. man has placed in this large five-event contest, and the showing was remarkable.

Kansas Trims Normals
9 To 0 In Return Game
On McCook Yesterday
Slawson Has Record of Twenty two Innings of Scoreless Ball
K. U. Hits Veteran Pitcher
Normals Are Unable to Connect With Slow Teasers of Slawson
The Emporia State Normals were unable to connect with the slow teesers served by Slawson Thursday while the Kansas nine were getting to Rehm, the Emporia veteran, for ten solid smacks and nine runs. Slawson held the Normals scoreless, making twenty-two consecutive innings of scoreless ball pitched by the K. U. finger. The Normals threatened to score in the third inning when they made three hits, but lost their chance over poor base running.
The Jayhawkers took the jump and made three runs in the first inning on hits by Cherry and Oyster and two Normal errors. In the second inning Kansas came back for another run. Two runs were added in the fourth inning when Slawson was safe on an error, Cherry tripped left center, scoring in Slawson and coming home to a passed ball. Isenberg and Keeler singled in the eighth, Isenberger scoring on Bunn's double. Slawson singled, scoring Keeler and Bunn ending the scoring for Kansas.
All of the Kansas men were hitting except Foster. Foster played a good game at short handling all of his chances without a bobble. Cherry and Slawson each garnered a pair of safeties. The Hargarrine nine was new

Seniors Arranging
For Caps and Gowns
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 3, 1918.
Troussesau and going-away-gowns aren't in it with the confusion and commotion, not to mention energetic activity, of the entire Senior class, men suffragettes and all. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of the coming week orders will be taken for Senior caps and gowns at Fraser check stand. Charges will be $25 per each. The money may be paid in advance. The dress will be worn three days, for class day, baccalaureate sermon and commencement. The Senior committee announced this morning that it desires faculty members to wear caprs and gowns also as the customer of the University.
Receptacles Are Ready And Ten Motors In Line For Salvage Scavenging
Saturday Drive Sweeps City. Ninth to Seventh, and Miss, to Mass.
Ten drivers of as many cars are preparing boxes to contain all the salvage which they are expecting to gather. Heaps of junk have been collected this week for the University salvage drive.
Ten K. U., women have serviceable calico aprons ready for service. Sat urday morning promptly at 10 o'clock the drive starts. Collection from Ninth to Seventh and from Mississippi to Massachusetts streets, will be mad at that time and all people out of the territory may have their salvage collected by calling Number 99.
Miss Margaret Lymn, who was in Kansas City Wednesday says the students would be surprised to see what the salvage department there is doing.
"The University cannot accomplish any such striking total, obviously." But what that a converted foe will bring in unexpected results for the Red Cross.
The salvage department of the Kansas City Red Cross room is a perpetual rummage sale, according to Miss Lynn. The women there handle the disagreeable heap with the same cheerfulness that the committee here at K. U., has sorted the contributions.
The War Here and Over There
Local fighting, which lasts but a few hours at a time, continues to be the only activity on the western front since the German drive of the early part of the week. Lines are straightened out and frequent raids are made on the enemy's positions.
A party of 113 ill and wounded soldiers returned to the United States last week from the French front. Fifty of them took part in the Third Liberty Loan celebration in New York.
The Red Cross has received a gift of $50,000 from Jeremiah Milbank for the purpose of founding in New York a school for disabled and crippled soldiers and sailors.
Owners of tractors, which are not kept busy through the spring plowing season, are urged by the Department of Agriculture to grant the use of these outfits to neighbors who may be short of labor.
The United States Quartermaster recently purchased 75 million yards of mosquito bar.
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, formerly Miss Alice Roosevelt is said to have sold the sapphire bracelet the Kaiser sent her for a wedding present and donated the proceeds to the Red Cross.
An Italian airplane, driven by a lieutenant in the Italian army with one passenger recently made a record for height reached of 23,048 feet.
Secretary Daniels cites this record of one detachment of destroyers for a six-month, period to show what the United States Navy has been doing. Total miles steamed in war areas, 1,000,000; submarines attacked, 81; single-vessels escorted, 717; convoyes escorted, 86; total number of days at sea, 3,600 days.
President Wilson has subscribed altogether $28,000 to the three Liberty Loan Bonds.

"Hilliad" Take-Off On Mome Features Life of Modern Greeks
Betty Moore, of Kansas City, is spending the week-end with her grandmother, Mrs. Emma Fagin, at the Delta Tau house.
Harry Morgan, editor of the 1918 "Jayhawk"," left last night for Jefferson City, Mo., where the annual is being printed, to read proof on the closing sections of the book and to inspect the publication before it goes to the bindery. The work of printing the book will be completed this week; and it will be out of the bindery within ten days. The "Jayhawk" is scheduled to appear on the campus Wednesday, May 15.
"FRANK STRONG,
"Chancellor."
Wesleyan is the fact that this year's senior class is only half as large as was the Class of 1917, the 1918 Jayhawker is as big a book as was last year's. It contains 432 pages of reading matter, with division and sub-title pages bringing the total up to 448 pages. With the senior section only half as large as last year's, there is consequently much more space for historical and feature matter.
The military note is of course dominant throughout the book; and all of the art work is military in tone. There is a large military section, with pictures of former K. U. men now in the service, pictures of the University drill companies and the Women's Red Cross and Surgical Dressings class and an article on the University's work in the war. On interesting picture shows the volunteers from the Spanish-American War.
Other historical articles are on "The Passing of North College" and "A History of the Jayhawker." The North College article, which was written by Miss Helen Rhoa Hoopes of the department of English, is illustrated with pictures of the building in the old days, and as it appears today while being torn down. The article on the history of the "Jayhawker" is illustrated with reproductions of all past cover designs.
The military and historical sections are all in addition to the usual features of the usual annual. The classes, organizations, and activities sections are large; and representative of the doings on the Hill this year. The humor section features thirty pages of sensational snap-shots, and a “verse libre” take-off on Homer’s Illustra called “The Hillaid.” Needless to say, this poem concerns the modern Greeks who inhabit Mount Oread.
Ban Put on Serving of Unnecessary Luncheons
Attention of students to the resolution of the Douglas County Defense Council, discouraging the serving of refreshments at social gatherings at other than regular meal times, is called by a statement issued this morning by Chancellor Strong. In a communication to the University Daily Kansan, the Chancellor says:
Chancellor Calls Attention of Students to Resolution of Defense Council
"The local Council of Defense for Douglas County some time ago passed a resolution, that it is unpatriotic and out of harmony with the work of the food administration to serve refreshments at any gathering except where they take the place of a regular meal. This matter has been recently taken up with the state food administrator and he has endorsed it. The churches, fraternal organizations, social and literary clubs, and others have been asked to co-operate.
"The food administrator for Douglas County today called my attention to the matter. There is every reason why all the organizations of the University should co-operate and adhere to the policy thus laid down. I trust that we shall be patriotic enough to follow the directions of the food administration in every respect.
Kansas City To Honor Dr. Fitzsimmons M' 12
Kansas City will honor Dr. William T. Fitzsimons, c'10 and m'12, who was killed when the Germans bombarded the hospital last September. Dr. Fitzsimons was adjutant to the colonel commanding the Harvard University hospital in France and was the first American officer to die in France.
It was decided Wednesday by the park commissioners to erect a memorial in the form of a public drinking fountain. It will be about twelve feet high and five feet wide. The facts of Dr. Fitzsimmons death will be carved in the stone. It has been planned to have the memorial erected by the Fourth of July.

To Give Phi Beta Kappa
Address Here May 13
Aumnus and Former Instructor In University of Kansas to Return for Talk
Prof. Vernon Kellogg of Leland Stanford University, an alumnus and former instructor of the University of Kansas, will deliver the Phi Beta Kappa address on Friday, May 13, at 8 o'clock. Professor Kellogg was invited several weeks ago to deliver this address, but, owing to his numerous duties in connection with the Food Administration, it was only recently that he was able to promise to be here.
In 1915 Mr. Kellogg, left Leland Stanford University and went to Belgium to assist Herbert Hoover in the relief work in that devastated country. He remained in Belgium for several months and at one time had entire charge of the distribution of supplies in all Belgium. Later he returned to the United States, but as soon as Mr. Hoover was appointed Food Administrator he again asked for Professor Kellogg's assistance and since then Mr. Kellogg has been in Washington. The lecture will be open to the public.

Student Ciceros Flay Faculty And Rid Souls of Grievances
Burney Miller, Warren Neumann, R. L. Hamilton, Harry Mosier, Carl Newman And Pwee Kansan Join in Annual Bombardment of All Existing Evils
All Join In Punishing Swings At Poor Old Senate Today
Lower Floor of Fraser Chapel Was Not Jammed With Eager Professors In Search Of All Possible Light On Student Opinion
Jammed in aisles, standing between seats, hung almost by coattails over alchemy rails, said to be clinging by teeth to window sills, and assured trail-out beyond open doors to the hearing limits, more than a thousand under-graduate acclaimers of personal outrage and common rightie indignation made the chapel three inches more capacious all around this afternoon at our o'clock.
MILITARY NOTE!
They listened to the annual outpouring of anothered suffering from the five component parts of the oppressed represented by Burney Miller for Collegians, R. L. Hamilton for Laws, Carl Newman for Medics, Warren Neumann for Engineers, and Harry Mosier for Pharmics. They agreed not to love one another or anyone else except themselves until time for supper, and succeeded in full intent.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk opened up sharp on the appointed hour and sounded the hoarse and shrill, male and otherwise, alarm. Faculty left Fraser Hall and scattered. Burney Miller was received with an ovation as he mounted the rostrum. He promptly let loose.
AWFUL!
When accused of hazing by Dean Patterson, the laws asked if it was considered hazing to put a night gown on a boy.
Company B missed the services of about thirty-two men last night in the competitive drills in Robinson Gymnasium. They were at a dinner-dance, some students say.
A student was reading the Kansas to his room-mate last night.
"The most characteristic thing about my school," said Burney Miller, speaker of the College, "is variety. Why we have every kind and type of an individual imaginable. In the Law and Engineering Schools now it's different. They are the same type exactly. The Laws for instance, are all triflers, skilled in the art of shooting craps and shooting coins at the cracks in the sidewalk; while the Engineers are uncount, crude individuals who delight in luring the beautiful girls of the University into their hair in search of votes."
"Well, well," he mused. "Forcing Frush to Wear Night Shirts on Campus—"
“What,” they led the roomie, a freshman. “Well, I’ll have to buy one.” “—Must Stop, Says Patterson, continued the first student.
SIAMS SOPORIFIC SENATE
One freshman woman was talking to another. She said, "I have been around to a lot of these sororities and I have decided that I would rather join the Phi Beta Kappa's."
Since the exciting contest Tuesday, many University students have devised a good way to devil their friends who were the winning candidates. They congratulate them excessively for being elected to office [or which there was no competition].
Small wonder we have "graft" with us in University life. We learn it young. Here is the story of an embryo grafter:
A ward school boy's teacher sent him to the principal with a note which read, "Please punish this boy." The carrier of the note met a smaller boy in the hall who could not read. The Wicked One offered the Innocent One a dime to take the note into the principal's office.
As he stood outside and heard the cruel blows falling upon the lamb he had fleeced, he spat with deadly aim at a crack twenty feet away and said, "Hit! money will do anything."
A Good Business Man
A Los Angeles business man who sent too much Income Tax told the collector what to do with it in the following letter:
There is a region in Fraser Hall which may well be called "No Man's Land." When a well-meaning professor who was trying to get the department of economics over the phone was given the department of home economics instead, and asked for Professor Catell, a strident female voice replied, "There are never any men here!"
"Let the surplus be appropriated toward creating a fund for the purpose of supplying a floral design for the Kaiser's funeral, made principally of poison ivy and bull thistle, with the inscription, 'To H—with the Kaiser by the Shortest Route.'
Send the Daily Kansan home.
In regard to grievances Miller said, "We have grievances too numerous to mention. The principal ones though are the actions of our esteemed Senate. That Senate is simply a combination of a high school debating society, an Irish wake, and an old ladies sewing circle. They haven't done a thing that really amounts to anything. In fact it would have been better for them to undone, for example the Freshman Cap and the Compulsory Military Drill Ordinances. Both are useless—merely topics upon which the members can show their eloquence and lastly their authority."
Miller said that the reason the college didn't have the organization or perhaps the gift of graft that the Laws do the Laws' ability to start a rally and get by with it is because they have so much leisure time to discuss and plan such things.
PAUSE TO PRAISE UNCLE JIMMY
Hamilton of the School of
law made.
The men of the Law School have been called slackers, but the loyalty of them and their guide and patron, Uncle Jimmy Green, can not be questioned. Men from this school are to be found in training camps from California to Georgia, and on the fields of France."
"At the beginning of this semester the law students asked they be allowed to carry extra work, in order to work in the farm fields of Kansas earlier in the summer. The law faculty would give them the laws will go out to the farms May 9, while the other schools are still in session."
"The senate should not bluff the students or refuse to back down on their assertions simply because of false pride. They are a public organ, and should consult the plain duty they owe to the students of the University of Kansas, and not make them fall back on the courts to enforce their legal rights, in the case of physical training."
"I feel that the Kansan has made some insinuating and slightly remarks about the laws, which may be due to the fact that they are ignorant on all
Prof. Dykstra's Roof Considerably Lowered
The roof of Prof. C. A. Dykstra's barn-garage was lowered Thursday afternoon into its new position which is exactly twenty-seven inches directly under its old position. The roof was lowered because it was too high, although an agricultural neighbor of Mr. Dykstra expressed deep regret that Mr. Dykstra was cutting down his mow space by lowering the roof. With the cutting down of its mow space the barn-garage also cuts out its hyphen and dual purpose and now becomes a garage. Subsequent reports on the remodeling of the barn-garage will appear in The Daily Kansan Monday.

FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1918
The war; nothing else matters.
It is likely that 1918 will be a record-breaker for number of Americans spending their summer in Europe.
"KNOCKERS' DAY"
Today we student get together behind closed doors far from the unholy ears of the faculty and tell ourselves what we think of the way things are run up here at the University. We shall have an expression of student opinion in regard to mid-week dance rules, the freshman cap tradition, the prof who holds his classes overtime, the lack of pep caused by faculty suppression of rullies—and, or yes, we have have a new one this year—the compulsory exercise ruling. No it would never do to leave that out. Let's hear from the representative of the School of Law the first thing.
Undergraduates you know as well as professors have their spleen, and every so often it just has to be vented. The faculty man has his opportunity every day, but the long-suffering students must confine their knocking to one day in the year. It is true that before the year is up they become so surcharged with bide that they live in constant dread of catastrophe from within, but now that Student Day, or as one faculty man expressed it, knockers' day, is here, they have an opportunity to voice their woes, air their grudges, and pronounce their anathemas, and their life here will be at least bearable for another year.
If one had to judge from the quiz books other students show him he would be forced to conclude that instructors here never give grades other than A's and B's.
THREE MILLION PLUS
Secretary of War Baker went over and got shot at. Then he came back and said "Three million quick for God's sake!" This morning he disappointed the sweet peace hopes of sublimely, typically American, progressive optimism, by telling Congress that the three million were for 1918-1919, and that men could be sent even faster in 1920.
England hanging on by her teeth, France punching up hard though with knives against the earth that reels underneath, Germany coming on and on...at last Mr. Baker is right. He never has been wrong; he hasn't been right enough. Now he knows. Soon this country will realize knows. Soon this country will realize. Its war is just beginning. And America is in to the end.
For a young man, for a Kansan,
for a Kansan at the State's University
which was built on a battleground,
this is the greatest of all eras in which to be born, to live, and
to labor. His duty shall be the envi-
sion of generations to come. His con-
spicuousness of it now is his lisis oter-
nal reward. Be it remembered he iis
to be multiplied by millions and more
millions. For they will all answer
they will all come. They will know
to what they come and why they
come, and they will be ready to giv
the supreme gift once given by
Americans to Americans but now t
be given by Americans to the whole
world.

THE WORLD AFTER THE WAR "History in the future will dat from June, 1914," said Senator Chauncey M. Depow, in a recent speech in New York, "When the reorganization and reconstruction are completed there will be a new era i this world, with new problems. The vital things of the past will have relation to the present, and in the evolution of industry the undreaches of former times will be the reality of the hour. Every nation will be too absorbed in its sorrows, it losses, its burdens, the problems o its reconstruction and of its relation to the rest of the world and its future safety to care for the past which preceded the war.
"There are thirty-seven million men on the battle fronts in all the continents and seven seas of the world. The problems of their absorption, after the discipline and experience of the camp, in the economic life of nations is to be one of the most serious which has ever engaged the attention of statesmen. Therefore I believe this new world will be absorbed wholly in its statesmanship and its literature with a world which has been devastated and is to be ree-created."
ATHLETICS IN WAR
In this period of adjustment to the demands of war we are often misled by false conceptions of what is the best policy to fit ourselves for the duties that will be required of us. At the present time there is a tendency to minimize the importance of physical training and athletic sports on the ground that they lack opportunity. There is a tendency to eliminate athletics altogether and in their place to substitute military drill.
Anyone who is familiar with the requirement of the soldier's life will recognize the short-sighted policy advocated. The soldier must have a sound and healthy body; he must be able to endure long periods of exposure; he must have the physical strength to execute every command. The *man who has trained himself to endure the severe strain of a football game is the better qualified to undergo the hardships of trench life.
Military instruction and athletics must work hand in hand to produce the real American who will win the war on the fields of France. The former must give him the knowledge of what he is to do; the latter must give him the physical power and confidence in his ability to do it.
A policy of military training alone, without athletics and physical education as a supplement, is directly contrary to the view taken by the military authorities themselves, who regard athletic sports as a fundamental part of their training camp activities. As a matter of fact the rigid requirements of fitness for military service emphasize the essential nature of physical education and athletic sports—Cincinnati University News.

WOMEN AND THE WAR
University women interested in the positions open to them as described in this column may get more detailed information by applying to Miss Margaret Lynn, of the Department of English.
The girls of Oread Training School have been doing war work this week. They made $25 by selling popcorn and giving benefit plays, and gave the money to the Red Cross.
Government employees in Washington will be able to enjoy baseball, golf, polo, tennis, and swimming during the summer months. The school houses of the city are to be thrown open for their use, and swimming instructors provided. Dramatte entertainments and outdoor festivals are among the activities planned.
Don't wait--po rr now! Buy War-

Women Who Learn Law Before Becoming Wives Able To Protect Rights
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
A Living and Always Liberty For Women Lawyers Say Law Professors
More women in law for the women's sake as well as for the law's sake are the desire and demand of H. W. Humble, Professor, and Uche Jimmy Green, Dean, of the University of Kansas School of Law. Uncle Jimmy goes so far as to quote the 1760 A. D. commentaries of Sir William Blackburn who wrote that the Kansas woman to enter the law building and open up the books that contain knowledge as much hers as any man's.
Professor Humble, although not so cassical in his justification of the new order in law, makes pertinent comments on the well known custom of marriage in its relation to the study of law.
"When a man marries," said he, "the daily grind of making a living goes on just the same as in his bachelor days. But in the case of a woman, her daily life changes when she yokes up. Whether single or married she should be educated in some particular thing that will be useful in later life. Law will be practical if only to guide her to protection of personal and property rights, husband or no husband to the contrary notwithstanding."
Uncle Jimmy said in conclusion of the whole matter that a woman can earn a good living as a lawyer, can make a good lawyer, and an honest one. "Furthermore," he said, "civil liberty being the very end and scope of our form of government, it must be rightly understood by women as well as men." He pointed to acting according to the laws and it is therefore essential that every citizen know the laws. Women are citizens indeed in Kansas!"

If you are interested in seeing some of the decompid furniture that was discarded from Fraser and North College shortly after the Quantrell raids, come down to the basement of the Museum. We are using the furniture still and it's the best that we have. Fortunately we have few visitors."
"It has been said of a woman that the consciousness of being well dressed gives a sense of tranquility that religion falls to bestow. Likewise good class conditions for any student gives an atmosphere for work that may carry as far as anything else. We have a faculty that we are proud of and we have the enviable classification of an "A" school by the American Association. The thing that we need most is some new equipment and a building to put it in."

“However, to take an optimistic view of the situation we are becoming skilled improvising the things that we need and have to have. In that I am reminded of a certain undertaker. The head of the family had just died and this knight of the Purple Cross was preparing him for burial. Being very bald the dead man had always worn a wig. The undertaker found that the wig had a tendency to slip back as the man lay in his casket and the wound grew bigger. She dripped her tears long enough to get him a library paste to stick to the wig in place. She consented, but after a long search she returned sobbing worse than ever with the report that she could not find the paste, whereupon the undertaker con聊然 replied, “Never mind now, I've found a tack.”

"Military drill as it has been handled here," said Neuman, "has failed in its two-fold purpose. It has failed to improve the morale of those students who have gone to the army and it is failing to give the students the proper physical training. It will fail next year and forever until the University Senate stops acting like a high school freshman."

The inconsistencies and childishness of the University Senate were made the subject of the talk by Warren Neuman, representative of the School of Engineering.
"The senate would not allow them o make the trip last year," said Neuman. "They should have been allowd to go last year."
He scored the senate for permitting the smallpox vaccination to be handled in the way it was. There was no excuse for such poor 10 per cent efficiency when it should have been 95 per cent efficiency, according to Neuman. He cited the trip the Women's Glee Club is making to Camp Fuson as an example of the Senate's inconsistency.

Jayhawk Meets Aggie On Manhattan Field In Annual Track Meet
Kansas Sends Only Thirteen Men to Take Part in Outdoors Contest
Rice and Haddock Entered
Hunt Off the Team Because of Operation—Aggies Have a Crack 2-miter
Kansas is meeting the Kansas Aggies in the annual dual out-does meet this afternoon on the Aggieville Field, Manhattan. Thirteen men went to Manhattan this morning to enter the meet.
Lobaugh and Haddock will run the dashes, and Lobaugh probably will enter the quarter mile. Ralph Rodkey and Russell are scheduled to run the 440-yard dash. Murphy and Davinson are slated to win. Murphy should have little difficulty in winning a first from the farmer runners.
Deewail is the only Kansas entry in the mile, because Hunt is out of the running probably for the remainder of the season because of an operation. Deewail looks good for a first place in this event. Hanna and Oglevie are running the 2-mile. The Aggies have a great 2-mile runner in Foreman, and the Jayhawk athletes will have to run a fast race to get first.
Hobart and Hilton are the entries in the hurdles. Neither have done much this season, although Hobart showed fairly well at times during the indoor season. Rice will be sure of a first in the high jump and Howard probably will get first in the pole vault. Howard also will high jump and broad jump. Ralph Rodkey looks like the best man in the broad jump.
Haddock is the only weight man to be taken on the trip. He should be able to win first in the shot and discuss. The javelin probably will not be an event on the program. The relay team will be picked from Murphy, Russell, Rodkey, Lobaugh, and Haddock.
Senior Engineers To Go Into Army Departments
Henry Gish, e18, and Clarence Lynn, e18, both recommended by the School of Engineering, will start May 5 for an engineer's training camp at Petersburg, Va.
R. W. Warner, L. M. Hull, W. T. Frier and E. C. Akers, also senators, "will enter a special training class in the ordinance department at the Carnegie Institute of Technology at Pittsburg, Pa. Alfred Wieters, now in the state board of health engineer's office, will also enter this work.
Lloyd George's statement that only twenty-five per cent of the final victory will be due to the Army and Navy, was Miss Kathleen Burke's message to the women of America in an address in Washington. Miss Burke told the courage of women under fire in England and France. A girl munition worker was blown up three times, but still came to work, saying that she was trying to make the other workers see that "it isn't so bad to be blown up." The women of the East End in London have demonstrated with the government for sending aeroplanes to protect them instead of sending the planes to the front.
In England people of moderate incomes are selling their pianos, which are going into the homes of munition workers, who are enjoying a prosperity that they have never known before.

Next Year's Prospects Bright ened by Work of Yearlings This Spring
Coach Wedell Develops Good Varsity Material From Frost Ball Squad
Coach "Dutch" Wedell has developed a team of good ball players from the big squad of freshmen who reported on Hamilton Field at the beginning of the year. The frosh have been playing the Varsity almost every night and have already three victories to their credit in the battles with Coach Jay Bond's men. The team has played hard and contains some ball players who will be a big help to the Varsity next year.
Nearly forty men answered the first call for candidates, but the coach has cut the squad and it now contains about twenty men. The squad will remain as it is through the remainder of the season and the regular freshmen uniforms will probably be given out at practice Friday.
Coach Wedel has tried several men behind the bat, but now Brite seems to have the call for the job as first string backstop, with Desmond, Madden and Chestnut as his assistants. The yearling pitching staff is one of
the strongest departments of the team. Harms is a dependable hurrier and although a southpaw, he has always been able to control the ball and has generally been a puzzle the Varsity. Marxen, the only right hander who has pitched against the Varsity, has generally been a puzzle to the Vargames and well at times.

In the infield the fresh are also strong. Harmus, when he has not been pitching, has worked at first base, and Coach Weddell himself has played that position at other times. McClead is the regular second baseman and he covers his position in good style. Murphy at short is a great fielder with a great pet, besides being a dangerous hitter at all times. Lashley at third is a sure fielder and has accepted more chances than any other member of the team except the first baseman. He is also a long distance hitter. The yearling outfield, composed of Vermillion, Shields, Wiberg, Palmer and Judkins, is a fair fielding combination and most of the men are strong with the stick. Of the other members of the squad, Barter, Leonardson, Harrison and Wells have shown ability.

Applications For Vassar Training Camp Must Be Sent In Before May 10
Camp Course Must Be Followed By Two Years In Hospital
Blanks to use in making application for admission to the Vassar Training Camp for Nurses may be obtained at the English office, 201 Fraser. Application should be made before May 10.
The plan of the camp has been explained in earlier issues of the Kansan. Only college graduates are admitted to the course and those entering must go on to finish training in some approved hospital. A list of thirty hospitals is issued by the Rec Cross committee in charge of the plan, institutions which accept the three months of training at Vassar and the previous college course in place of a year of hospital training. This will reduce the hospital term to two years and three months instead of the usual three years. In some states, as in Illinois, the laws require three years for a nurse's training and hospitals can make no allowance for the college course, only three months for the Vassar term. A few hospitals in other places have reduced their requirements generally for college women, but others require the full three years for college women as for others. In practically all hospitals the training is free and living expenses are provided for, and some add a small monthly stipend as well.
Women taking the Vassar course are considered as entering at once on Red Cross service, and it is likely that they will have special advantages in opportunities for work. The better training a nurse has the greater the probability that she will reach positions of responsibility and authority. Another kind of training very desirable and one that may be obtained in shorter time than the hospital course, is in massage. In the convulsive hospitals and in the work of reconstructing wounded men, massage is much used. In Hart House in Toronto a special form of massage and use of electric appliances is taught. Six months' course of training, including many branches of physical therapy, is given. During training, which is free, students receive $25.00 a month. After graduation they are required to work in the hospital a year at a salary of $55.00 a month. Fe

Teams Evenly Matched For Swimming Meet
More Interest Is Shown in Races Than in Fancy Diving
Either a W. A. A. ticket or twenty-five cents will admit women of the University to the swimming meet in the 7:30 o'clock, Tuesday day night, May 7.
"It is impossible to give any doe on the winners," said Miss Hazel Pratt today. "Last year it was evident before the meet that the freshmen would win, but this year the teams are evenly matched."
The sophomores are depending upon Helen Brown for many of their points. Josephine and Jeannette Shafer have been showing up well for the freshmen. Margaret Hodder, for the seniors, and Maurine Clark for the juniors are doing unusually good work.
More interest is being shown in the races than in the fancy diving. The seniors have a strong relay team.
"About $4.00 worth of salvage was sold last week," said Marc Margaret Lynn today. "More than this was collected, but part was not sold."
The officials for the meet are:
Coach Hamilton, starter; Miss Laird,
Miss Duffield, and Mrs. Humble,
judges.
Salvage Collection
To Encourage Thrift
Lucene Spencer, head of the salvage committee, said, "It is not the object of the salvage collection to make money only, but to prevent the destruction of useful material and to encourage conservation along this route. The process of the loss can not be measured by the amount of money made alone but by the spirit of economy and conservation it encourages."
'Comus' Costums To Be Typical Of Seventeenth Century Setting Of Play
Audience Will Be Seated On Hillside West of the Museum
Special lighting effects have been worked out for the outdoor performance of "Comus" to be given Thursday night. Electric lights will be placed on the stage on the golf links by the University electrician.
"The play will be given west of the Museum just across the ravine on the golf links," said Herman Hangen, manager of the play. "The stage will face the west and will be set off with a rural screen. Chairs will be arranged on the slope of the hill for the audience."
"Costumes for the whole cast have been received from the Harrelson Costume Company of Kansas City," said Miss Geneva Parker of the public speaking department, who has charge of the costumes, "I spent two days picking out correct costumes for my role in the play and in the way of costuming to make the play realistic in the seventeenth century English setting."
Tickets for the play now are being sold by the W. S. G. A. officers, at the Registrar's Office and at the Round Corner Drug Store.
Kansas Nine Fielding In Top Form Before Series With Tigers
Jayhawker Slugging on Slump But Pitchers Are Working In Good Form
With but one day left for real practice before the all-important series with Missouri at Columbia May 8, 9, and 10, Coach Jay Bound intends to put his Jayhawker nine through a hard workout on McCook field this afternoon if the weather permits and take things easy tomorrow. The team will leave Tuesday night for the Tiger camp and will begin the series for the Valley leadership on Rollins Field Wednesday.
The team has been fielding in top form during the last week, as is shown by the fact that in the Normal game, twenty assists and twenty-seven putouts were accepted without an error. But the hitting has not been so good and the team batting average for the four games which have been played is only .217. However, if the nine continues to present a strong defense and the pitchers are in good form, a few hits should go a long way toward winning the series from Missouri.
Little is known about the strength of the Missouri nine, except that there are four "M" men on the team and that the Tigers won two of the three games played with Ames three weeks ago. Urie, the Tiger star pitcher, is new to Missouri Valley baseball this year, but has turned in some well-pitched games thus far in the season. Morris, the Missouri catcher, is a veteran, as is Captain Slusher on first base, Dennis at short stop and Dippold in left field.
The record of the Kansas team is as follows:

"Yes, he has a slow one and then for a change of pace he uses a slower one," answered the indignant Rehm.
Rehm, the Emporia Normal pitcher, was telling his men that Slawson the Kansas pitcher had nothing on the ball and one player informed Rehm that Slawson had a change of pace that he did not like.

Dean Templin Returns After Doing Important Work On Food Board
Seven Hundred Institutions Study Conservation Courses
Directed Collegiate Section
Forty Thousand College Women Now Taking Food Administration Lessons
Dean Templin first went to Washing to serve on the Committee of Public Information. Then the Food Administration asked him to take the position of director of the Collegiate Section of the Food Administration, to organize a campaign for food control among the educational institutions of the country. This position is an important one and has reflected much credit on the University of Kansas as well as upon the dean himself.
Dean Olin Templin, who has been in Washington serving as director of the College Segment of the Federal Food Administration under Herbert Hoover, federal food administrator, since January, returned to the University Sunday. Plans are still indeterminate. He will remain at the University or return to Washington, but it is expected he will remain here.
First, a corps of editors was organized to publish three courses of study, the first of which is now being given to the women of this and many other universities. The other two courses are more advanced. They are being given in 700 institutions, and are reaching 40,000 women. The courses are made compulsory in some institutions, optional in some, and are given for credit in others. But as a whole there has been a hearty response to the call by the different educational institutions in the country.
TEACHING FOOD WISDOM
STATE SECRETARIES APPOINTED
The hope of the Food Administration in this movement is that the university woman become an intelligent leader. In all its work of food conservation,
STATE SECRETARIES APPPOINTED
At present appointments are being made for state secretaries for college women's work. Miss Mary Capper, sister of the governor, has been held for this position in Arkansas. She will get acquainted with the young women in the state, interest them in the movement, and in general handle the situation throughout her state.
Dean Templin said there was a mistake that the average man in Washington knew any more about the war than the average man anywhere else in the United States. The average man in Washington gets his information of the war by reading the newspapers, just as he does in Kansas. Yes, he had met McAdoo, had almost been run down by the President's motor car and knew Hoover very well, but outside of that his experience has been work and work. There is no loafing in Washington these days, Dean Templin said, and chances of picking up illuminating "inside" information in clubs and hotels and such places is nil.
Dean Templin has been in Washington since January. On his way home from Washington he stopped at a college deans to attend a meeting of college deans.
In Washington you can always tell a food administration man by his hair. It invariably needs cutting. Washington barber shops are not open at nights or Sundays, which prevents the food administration man from attending punctually to a proper trimming of his hair. Dean Templin got a hair cut at Urbana and as a result arrived in Lawrence with a bad cold.
The work of lowering the roof for Prof. C. A. Dykstra's late barn-garage, now his garage, was finished Saturday. The southwest corner of the roof, which had been damaged by fire, was nearly patched with new shingles. A 4-inch strip was nailed across each gable end to hide artistically the line made by sawing the boxing, which had to be done to permit the roof to be lowered.

The war; nothing else matters.
AMERICA WILL DO HER PART
AMERICA WILL DO THE PART
The launching of the 5,548-ton steel collier, Tuckkahoe, at Philadelphia in less than a month after the keel was laid sets a new world's record for rapid ship construction. This, in itself, is a remarkable achievement, but it holds a greater significance for America and the world than this.
America, the military experts say, must be the deciding factor in this war. She has the resources, the wealth, the men. Her only problem is transportation. And America has gone to work and is putting all her energy into the solution of this problem. She has increased the number and the capacity of her shipyards many times since the beginning of the war. She has increased the number of men at work in each yard and is increasing that number still more.
America is in the war to the end. She has her problems, but those problems are being solved, and the Allies from now on shall have no reason to blame America for failure to do her part in the great struggle.
The record time in which the Tuck-ahoe was launched proves that the Government's efforts are beginning to count. They will count more and more in the future. The record will be broken many more times before the war ends, and the rapidity with which ships will be turned out will be something not dreamed of in the past.
THAT ALIEN HERE
He is not the "alien enemy"—but just the plain, ordinary, exempted alien the American exemption boards had to see pass them by during those hard days of filling the first quota last summer. They had to listen to his plaintive, cringing, humble "Me alien," no have to fight.
—American fight for himself." They had to look into his broad, heavy, cowish countenance to see why his body was so possessed of a spine of putty instead of steel.
Three million more Americans now going out to die for a cause that knows no national bounds, and yet there is no order from Washington for an alien draft. One million aliens whose native lands as much as their newly chosen country are the inspiration of American arms and aims—a million of them are letting other men die for them.
This alien is a strong man, capable of bearing arms. He has rights throughout the world that are being defended by other men now. He has share in all that American ideals, institutions, and civic privileges give to one dwelling within the land. He
is willing to let other men die for him and his possessions.
Give that alien his choice; fight or go back where he came from. There can be no bad diplomatic precedent in this. No American in a forgeon iand would be injured by such a choice in any future war emergency. Alien draft must come now if it comes at all. And if it does not come at all—
Think of American young manhood fighting and dying while such dregs of clay and muck sit at their work benches back home; think of the martyred youth of America replaced in citizenship by the alien horse which stayed behind and saved itself.
And thinking these thoughts—Iay hold on that Congressman, and all those Congressmen from every district of every state. Compel them to do the equitable thing. If that alien here won't fight for what he got here and has here, send him home. America does not want him another minute.
OPPORTUNITY IN THE ARMY
One of the brigadier generals commanding fighting troops in France is a young man who joined the army last year as a private soldier.
His rapid promotion should be an inspiration for every man in the army and for every man who is registered and expects sooner or later to join the colors. It is concrete proof of what has been said so often before, that the American Army is the most democratic military organization in the world, and that every man who enters it stands at least as good a chance of having his merit recognized as he would in private life.
The rule works both ways. At the same time that a lot of privatees are being given commissions and advanced with unexamined rapidity, a lot of officers who held important commands before we entered the war are being relieved of their commands because they have failed to make good sense of the rules which means to the native American sense of liberacy and fair play.
Few Americans think of Army service as a "career." Whatever a man's place in the organization, he generally looks upon his work as a transient duty, to be discharged as well as possible in the shortest time possible, and then abandoned for civil pursuits. Nevertheless it adds immensely to the spirit of the Army for the soldier to realize that, while he is in the service, he is rated and rewarded at his real worth. -Greenville News.

Students are beginning to prepare for the great offensive that will start in three weeks. The profs are expected to use their heavy artillery. Just now many students are considering what use may be made of camouflage.
It is remarkable how a man's self-esteem is increased by the remark of the man who introduces him to make a speech.

The practice of compelling persons charged with disloyalty to kiss the Stars and Stripes is a silly display of patriotism insulting to the flag.
The kiss is the salute of affection. It is a travesty to enforce it from those who have no real love for Old Glory in their hearts and whose lips have spoken words that awakened the anger of loyal men. If the kiss is required as a punishment than the kiss is put into jail but is wholly wrong. You would not punish a man who had insulted your wife by compelling him to kiss her.
A STUPID PRACTICE
Let the offender be made to apoio gize publicly and humbly in the presence of the flag, but reserve the salute of affection for those who really love it and whose love has been proved by service—Chicago Evening Post.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
The Madam Inspector Causes Much Anxiety
Keys are becoming a rage on the Hill. The vogue is not due to any sudden liberality in the extension policy of the learned crowd, or any Greek society whatever. It is instead—sss—stt, keep it shady; a precautionary measure. Why?
Easily answered, my dear Georgiana. Somebody, or other decided that the Y. W. secretary needed a little labor in the reals of the material as well as the intangible—just by way of being sure that she maintained an equilibrium of personality, you know, this secretary must have this secretary in her corporeal person, personally inspect the rooms of University women.
From the secretarial point of view it is really a most wonderful and fascinating pastime, besides furnishing an unparalleled opportunity for collecting material for a health museum written, "Half Lives" Housewife, whether the secretary loves the job or loathes it, it has be done—like duty, you know.
The women students were alarmed when they heard what was coming. There were whispers of a raid on rouge boxes, eye brow pencils, souvenir cigarettes, unmade beds, wraps not hung up by ten in the morning and floors evidencing an unpresentable amount of dust. Some one heard that she worked out statistics and took names. No one wanted to be a statistic.
Mighty women trembled in their pumps. Presidents of up-lift societies were late to classes getting "that bed" made. Wise seniors said to the freshmen roommates, "Flunk if we must, but this room has to be kept absolutely perfect until she gets past us. You make the bed and I'll get keys and lock all the dresser drawers." Hence all incriminating Dorines were placed under lock and key each morning. Hundreds of keys were carried on the Hill. Hardware merchants reported their stock sold out late last night.
The all important question of the uninspected portion on arriving home at noons and nights these days is, "Has she been here yet?"

The first thing that almost anyone in direction of any branch of war work says when asked what girls graduating from college should do to be use, is "Tell them to go into nursing. The greatest need is there."
There is yet no complete arrangement for the training or using of nurses' aids. The Red Cross, however, is projecting short courses of training for helpers. These will begin with the First Aid and Home Nursing courses, such as are now being given in the University. After them will come a more advanced course, consisting of 240 hours of hospital training. It is expected that such work will be given in Kansas City during the summer though the arrangements are not yet completed. Those taking the course will be ready to serve as voluntary workers in Red Cross civilian service, or may be used as voluntary aids in convalescent hospitals. Miss Anne Tachudy, at the Red Cross headquarters, 1020 McGee street, has charge of the work in Kansas City.

Jayhawker Team Off To Meet Missourians In Three Day Contest
Chances Seem Good for Taking Lead in Race for Championship
Freshmen Defeat Varsity
Dutch Wedell's Yearlings Take Advantage of Regulars' Misplays
Coach Bond and twelve members of the Varsity baseball team left on the Santa Fe this afternoon for Columbia, Mo., where the Jayhawker nine will meet the Tigers May 8, 9, and 10. Every player was in good condition and the team expects to give the Missourians the battle of their lives in the series. If the Jayhawkers can take two games from the Tigers, they will go into lead in the Missouri Valley race and have an excellent chance for the championship.
WEDELL HELD VARSITY SLUGGERS
DWELL HELD VARSITY SCOOPERS
The Varsity regulars, batting against Coach Dutch Wedel, again lost to the freshmen Monday afternoon, by a 3-2 score. The Varsity, by hitting Wedell in the early innings, gained a 2-run lead until the final innings, when a couple of hits, mixed with three or four misplays by Varsity infielders, allowed the yearlings to score three runs. Goodwin pitched good ball for the Varsity while the regulars were unable to connect with Dwell Wedel with men on bases.
BOND WILL USE SAME LEAGUE.
The same lineup that has been playing all year will probably be used against the Missourians. Bunn will do most of the catching and Rubble, Scheepel and Slawson will do the pitching. Coach Bond has not announced his selection to pitch the first game, but it will be either Scheepel or Slawson. Cherry will be on first base, Isenberger will play second base, Foster will be at his old position at short and Lonborg will play third. Smith, Keeler and either Weltmer or Oyster will be used in the outfield.

The War Here and Over There
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 7, 1918.
An unsuccessful gas attack was carried out against the American forces on the Picardy front Monday.
A tentative arrangement for an American army of 6,000,000 men by July 1, 1920, has been made by the House Committee on Military Affairs.
There was no general infantry action on the western front yesterday but the Australians made a gain of three-quarters of a mile, east of Amiens.
Heavy rains on the western front are thought to be delaying the German drive.
Rear Admiral Samuel McGowan, paymaster general of the navy, is the "boss" of a system that daily spends $30,000,000. By using his "cost plus" contract system he has virtually saved the department $1,500,000.
Already we have sent to our Allies 387,000,000 bushels of wheat,
2,000,000 pounds of pork products,
and 2,000,000,000 pounds of sugar.
In 1910 the farmer got 32 per cent of the total cost of a loaf of bread. The miller got 7 per cent and the remaining 61 per cent went to those handling the loaf between the miller and the consumer. In January and February, 1918, the farmer got 45 per cent, the miller 6 per cent and others interested got but 49 per cent.

Miss Elizabeth Wood, assistant director of the Civilians Relief Corps of the southwestern division of the Red Cross lectured to the 11 o'clock classes in sociology this morning on "War Relief and Home Service."
Urges Personal Service as Well As Financial Aid in War
"The secret of good case work is the practice of individualizing the family." Miss Wood advised. "Do no work on the theory that all cases are to be approached in the same manner; we need the same kind of attention."
"Financial support is not everything. If you stop when you give money you defeat your own ends."

Comus, Unique Rustic Production to Be Given on Golf Links May 9
K. U. Orchestra To Play All Old English Music For Milton's Masque
All of the old English music to be used in the campus play, "Comus", has been arranged for the orchestra by Prof. F. E. Kendrie, of the School of Fine Arts. The themes for the play were composed in the seventeenth century, especially for the first presentation or "Comus" at an old English castle.
The play "Comus" will be giver Thursday night at 8:30 o'clock in the natural amphitheater on the golf links, west of the Museum. Prof. Arthur MacMurray, who is coaching the play, reports that the members of the cast all have their parts in a finished form.
"Comas" is an historic masque written by John Milton. It includes acting, dancing, and singing, and was written especially to be played outdoors. A special rural stage will be constructed on the golf field with unique lighting effects. Ofursday night there are shrubbery other outdoor scenery will be taken to Robinson Gymnasium, and a similar rural effect produced there.
"The play, 'Comus', is something different in dramatic work at the University," said Prof. Arthur MacMurray. "It is the first outdoor amateur production to be staged here. 'Comus' has proved a very successful performance at other places where it has been given. We have had the best dramatic work by the University of actors. The first dress rehearsal showed that they were well prepared for the play, and that the grotesque costumes, the dancing, and the orchestra music will make the production a most interesting one."
Dr. Sundwall Confers With Federal Medicos
Government Considering War Policies for Medical Schools
Dr. John Sundwall is in Washington this week attending a conference on medical schools called by the National Council of Defense. He will also attend a conference called by Surgeon-General Gorgas May 15, to decide on a policy for medical schools during the war.
Because of the large number of professional men who have been instructors in medical schools being needed in the army, many medical schools have been threatened with severe handicaps by losing their instructors. Nineteen men have been called from the faculty of the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas. The purpose of the conference to be held May 15 is to settle on a definite policy that the army will pursue regarding the faculty of medical schools.

Plain Tales From The Hill
NEW TRACK IDEA
The seven passenger red Buick owned by Florence Butler who is starring in "Comus" was taken from in front of Green Hall one night last week. It was returned at twenty-five minutes till 10 o'clock to its original position with the assistance of a Murphy man who had succeeded in establishing an unusual and original cross-country speedway across the flower beds of the east end of the campus. The culprits, whose names were taken at the time the crime was consummated were (censored by request). Other unidentified accomplices escaped in a car and a Ford.
One renowned professor on this Hill has a wife, who gets the 6 o'clock Santa Fe train whistle confused with the 6:30 o'clock rising whistle which was installed for the students by authority of the University Senate last fail. Every morning his wife reasoned that she must wake up every morning he wakes up with half an hour to his credit. It's a hard life at K. U.

"Snooks" Jacobs, aged four, was a visitor today at one of Professor Loud's classes.
"Didn't that man say some funny things," was her remark, "he ought to be in a picture, I think."
No, Modestine, the drill companies have not started artillery practice, in spite of the sounds reminiscent of the western front coming from the eastern end of the campus this morning. Nor were the track men practicing starts, and it was not a rehearsal for anything, either. That group of interested men conducting the gun play was simply Prof. M. E. Rice's physics class who were conducting experiments in the velocity of sound.
Horace Rich had his last summer's suit cleaned and pressed recently. When he put it on after coming from the cleaners, the trouser cuffs had shrunk up considerably. As he emerged from his home his roomie noticed the abbreviated trouser legs and shouted: "Hey Rich, where you going with your date, out wading?"
A senior approached the hen house which the frish was whitewashing and asked, "What are you doing that for?"

Engineering Students May Train to Become Officers in the Navy
Navy Will Need Many Officers to Man Ships Now Being Launched
Training School at Hoboken
Coast Artillery Schools Will Train Electrical Engineers to be Sergeants
The purpose of the school is to provide engineering officers to man the many new ships that are being put into commission. The course is only open to men who have graduated from a school of engineering. Undergraduates may be enrolled as second class seamen and are exempted from the draft, and not to be called until they are graduated. The navy department has an excellent manner for a student to get, some good training in practical engineering. Following are the qualifications for intrance to the school:
Men in the School of Engineering who wish to become officers in the navy may apply for admission to the U. S. Naval Engineering School at Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, N. J., say navy notices received by Prof. F. B. Dains.
MUST BE GRADUATES
Men of ability and officer material, aged 21 to 31 inclusive. A complete high school course and a graduate of an engineering course at a recognized technical school. Must pass the examination for a navy officer.
electrical engineers are also wanted at the Coast Artillery School, Ft. Monroe, Va. All men who enter this school will receive the rank of electrician sergeant and will take charge of electrical signals, telephone systems, mine firing apparatus and power plants, limb sawes. Like those of this school, that it is the best chance for a civilian to become more than a private and that it is the most direct route to an officer's training camp.
Students who desire further information along these lines can obtain it from Dr. F. B. Dains of the department of chemistry.
Information For Reservists
Those Called to Be Given Summer's Training in Military Instruction
Active duty for naval reservists who are called for summer training will consist almost entirely of preliminary military instruction. This information was sent out by the government to the men who are in this reserve, and who are wondering what their duties will be. There will be little opportunity to assign men to technical work who have had training in some lines on account of the short time they are in service.

TUESDAY, MAY 7, 1918
The war; nothing else matters.
A WAR-TIME SCHEDULE
With the Government calling for every individual and every institution to exert all effort to win the war, the University might well consider the proposition of holding school six days a week next year. Many universities and colleges during the past semester have been doing this. The School of Law at this University has followed that plan, and will finish its work this week. Its students will be able to begin some kind of productive work three weeks ahead of students in the other schools. This is important when there is a shortage of labor in nearly every essential industry.
To adopt the plan for next year it would be necessary to rearrange many of the courses, but that is easily possible. There is no course now offered but could be changed to a three- or a six-hour course. Many three hour courses are already offered. It would be unnecessary to change these. Two-hour courses could be expanded to three-hour courses, and five hour courses expanded to six-hour courses or reduced to three-hour courses.
A few persons can be found among both faculty and students, who would object to such a change because it would not permit as much time for pleasure and recreation as they have been accustomed to, but the majority both of faculty and students would be willing to make the necessary sacrifices in order to render the maximum of service to the country during the war.
America has pledged herself to do her part in the war. She has oversubscribed her Liberty Loans and her Red Cross and Red Triangle funds, she has enlarged her shipbuilding plants to many times their original proportions, and is now preparing to raise an army of at least three million men. She can do even more than this. And her colleges and universities can help her to do it by so arranging their courses as to allow students and faculty as much time as possible to help in war industries.
WHY HE CAME
The alien refuses to remember why he came to America when he rejoices in continued exemption from the one imperative duty binding every man who is today a part of America. Not all of his original purpose was directed towards dollars and cents; most of what he wanted was freedom to participate in the rights and privileges of the republic, the state, the community,—with all the benefits of democratic society as a whole which all government here constitutes and maintains.
Police power, for instance, is for
his protection in America. He had always feared police on the other side of the Atlantic. Here he is equal to any man before the law for the first time in his life, and he can come and do, dwell, and associate with only due consideration for the common interest as his guide and limit.
He can compete here in America; he is not thrust on account of his birth into a static social or industrial class from which there is no escape. No one has presumed to tell him, let alone oblige him, to stand still the rest of his life and be contented. American democracy and progress rest on no such Old World "contentment." Labor's organization and far-seeing corporate organization in American industry have made him conscious of what he is worth, what more he can be worth, both to himself and to his community, and how to collect in terms not only of cash but also of decent living. Labor unions couldn't and capital wouldn't do any such things in the land from which he came.
Here he can grow as well as gain. If ever he marries and has children, their opportunity will be far more than his limitations of self permitted him. For their sake, for the very thought of them in the future, he would not leave this country and what it holds for him and for them. He would not go back across the sea to what he came from.
Then, if here and now unencumbered, why shouldn't this alien fight when the very foundations of the democracy he has found and entered are at stake? He knows his duty, rest assured of that, but, cowed by the half-starved, downtrodden peasant soul his native land half-endowee him with, he cannot of himself get up sufficient incentive. Perhaps he is to be pitted.
But why he came includes what he came for, and still stands the duty of American leadership to tell him in unmistakable words all he came here for. His obligation must be laid upon him. Washington must tell him to stay and stand up for what is here or go back whence he came.
DRAFTED MEN
It would be well if something of significances could be brought home to those who, too often listlessly, watch the drafted men going to war. Certainly it is not fitting that so clear an embodiment of American ideals should be ignored save by the idly curious and the hysterical.
Unluckily, the tradition of the gaudy soldier-hero still prevails: the crowd will applaud a uniformed officer on a prancing horse, but it cannot admit itself to understand the full meaning of an inconspicuous boy in his oldest clothes, carrying his belongings in a gunny sack, and trudging to the railway station with a pasteboard tag on his coat. The boy is not a soldier, as yet, nor is he particularly a hero; but he is the living representative of something greater than soldiers or heroes: of a nation that stands pre-eminently for peace, putting forth its united strength to fight for justice.
It would be well, too, if more of the drafted men themselves could be brought to realize the great honour of being thus chosen to fight for America. It is a principle of democracy that, in time of peace, the people select the fittest among them to be their governors and law-makers. Open their choices are known as honest representatives are felt to be so worthy of respect that even the customary term of address is changed to "Honorable."
In the gravest emergency of its existence, the American democracy has similarly selected the fittest among its people to be its defenders, and they, too, deserve the title of "honorable" because of the greatness of their office. Every drafted man is something that the volunteer soldier, for all his individual courage and patriotism, can never be; a symbol of democracy in arms, voluntarily subjecting itself to the utmost sacrifice in order to stand united solidly on the side of justice honor and true peace."

Pyramids Had Nothing On New Ad Building
Ye olde tyem pyramid builders have nothing on the present day builders of our new Administration Building. They are handling a heap more stones and are doing it more easily. Then, too, why the poor Egyptian should want to sweat over the simple thing of raising a little wheel-barrow-load of brick is more than the present-day laborer can understand. Today, the easiest task that controls the electricity that lifts the brick and tile that builds the Administration Building! *
Material for the mighty pyramids may have been hard to obtain, but now, even in war times, no particular difficulty has been experienced. And what was their old pile of rock worth? With us it is considered a war necessity to give students a place where they can be educated, and that is why the work is being carried on so strenuously today.
Did you ever notice the bosses over there? You will find that they are hard to pick out for they are working as hard as anyone on the job. WP itly only the poor saw-sharpener Modern inventions have evidently for gotten him for it takes a good eey and a steady hand to put on the harp est edge and his fingers evidence som signs of abuse.

K. U. Will Meet Tigers Saturday at Columbia In Annual Track Meet
Jayhawkers Weakened by Loss of Four Men Going Into Service
Rice May Establish Record
Kansas Is Strong in Field Events—"Kansas Week" At Missouri
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
The Kansas track team will go to Columbia, Mo., for the annual dual meet with the Missouri Tigers Saturday. The Kansans will meet the strongest competition in the Missouri Valley in this meet.
TIGERS GREAT IN DASHES
TIGERS GREAT IN DASHES
The Kansas team has relied much upon the sprinters for victory in all of the previous Valley meets this season. Scholz, the Missouri star sprinter, who has broken and equalled several records this spring, should take firsts in the sprints against the Jayhawkers. The Tigers overwhelmed the K. U. team in the indoor meet in Convention Hall. They have about the same material for the meet Saturday, while K. U. has lost Welly, Shreve, Coffey, and Clift.
Haddock and Lobaugh will run in the dashes for K. U. Kansas has several good quarter milers in Rodkey, Russell and Lobaugh. Murphy will run in the half and Dewall the mile. Oglivie and Hama are the best two-milers on the Kansas squad. Hobart is the best K. U. hurdler.
STRONG IN FIELD EVENTS
In the field events, Rice is sure of his place in the high jump. Haddock will compete in the weight events, and Rodkey and Howard in the broad jump. Howard will do the vaulting from the base ball, which has left school. This week will be Kansas week at Missouri because the baseball nine will play there Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
"We are going to give the Tigera what we have and take what they give us in the right spirit," said Coach W. O. Hamilton, this morning.

Women's Racket Match Will Begin Thursday
All women who expect to enter the tennis tournament should sign up immediately on the bulletin board in the gym. Coach Pratt hopes to begin the tournament Thursday so it can be finished easily before school closes. Last spring the games dugbed by the team had been rained on, weather. The courts have not been in good condition this spring and extensive practice has not been possible. It is hoped that a good showing will be made nevertheless.

Shrubs have been transplanted to form the wings of the stage and give a rural scenic effect.
The play will be given Thursday night at 8:30 o'clock regardless of the state of weather conditions, the management said this morning. It is expected that the golf links stage across the small raine west of the Museum can be used, but if the night prows unfavorable, Robinson Gymnasium will be used with the same stage features as the outdoor scene.
"We are leaving nothing undone to insure success and brilliance," said Professor MacMurray who is directing the play. "Comus will be a brilliant spectacle with its fluffy costumes and the vari-colored lighting effects." Miss Genevaer Parker, assistant in the department of public speaking is manager of costumes of the production.
Special colored lighting effects have been ordered from Kansas City for the production. Ample seating will be provided for the audience on the hillside facing the stage in the natural amphitheater.
Craig Kennedy will take the lead in the part of Comus. The part of the Attendant Spirit will be played by Florence Butler. Leah Stewart plays the role of the Lady. Sabrina, the nymph, will be acted by Helen Clark, the part being one largely of dancing. Burney Miller takes the part of the old shepherd, Thysura, Karl Brown and Raymond Darby are the First and the Second Brother, respectively.
There are eight nymphs and country dancers. They are: Ida Ratodinsky, Hazzel Martin, Irene Stratton, Katherine Fulkerson, Nadine Weibel, and Dorothy Cole. The court dancers are Eda Roberts, Lena Pittering, Eileen VanSandt, Jane Waters, John Winkler, Ralph Emerson, Louis Morgan, and Herman Friesen. The dancing parts have been coached by Dorothy Cole.
The six satyrs of the play are: Myr
ron Husband, Charles Goss, Luther
Hangen, Clifford Tenney, Dan An-
thony, and John Phipps.
The proceeds from "Comus" will be divided up between the W. S. G. A. and the K. U. Dramatic Club. The production was arranged to try out this type of outdoor plays, and it is an innovation among amateur dramatic circles of the University. The masque includes a large variety ofmatic effects, comic flushing and acting of the characters. It was written by John Milton and is especially for public presentation.
To Play Prof. Skilton's Indian Music at Oregon U
Feature
"Deer Dance" to Be Used as Commencement Feature
scussed T
AS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 8, 1918
Ferger
As the special number of the commencement exercises this year, the University of Oregon has selected the "Deer Dance," a well known composition of Prof. Charles S. Skilton.
Professor Skilton obtained this dance from R. R. DePoe, chief of the Rogue River Indian tribe at Siletz, Ore., and arranged it for the orchestra.
The "Deer Dance" is a dance used by the Rogue River tribe in their memorial ceremony service for those who have died the preceding year.
Chief DePoe was bandmaster at Haskell ten years ago and left in order to teach the Indians of his tribe. It was while he was at Haskell that Professor Skilton became acquainted with him.
Seniors must get, their invitations a check stand in Fraser Hall, Friday.
Architects to Meet, Eat And Talk Tuesday, May 14
The Architectural Engineering Society will hold its annual dinner at the Midway Cafe, Tuesday night, May 14. The committee is making arrangements to entertain about forty members.
Besides speeches and toasts by faculty members and students, several former students now in service are expected to be present and will give short talks. According to reports the society has lost for military service fifteen per cent of the total enrollment of the year.
The War Here and Over There
The week beginning May 20 has been designated "Red Cross Week" by President Wilson. A drive for a 100 million dollar Red Cross fund will be carried out then throughout the United States.
The Allied forces in Flanders and Picardy expect a renewal of the German offensive soon. German newspapers say the drive will be against both the French and the Italian fronts. Another report says they are preparing the people for an abandonment of the drive.
Germany and her allies have an additional foe in Nicaragua, who entered the war Tuesday.
The Y. M. C. A. needs hundreds of men to direct athletics abroad at the front, in Italian and French forces as well as American. Many former college athletes are taking up this work.
The Germans have invented a new drug that will allay the pangs of hunger. Semi-official reports to Washington say that the German food situation is critical.
The casualties of the British army for the week ending Tuesday numbered 38,691, 6,056 were reported killed or died of wounds and the rest wounded or missing.
A popular way of Kansas towns to raise money for the Red Cross is to hold auctions of quilts, canned fruit, various animals, and the like. The sales and resales of these webs net large sums of money, the dependence of the amount being on the willingness and finances of the buyers rather than the value of the article.

State Defense Council Will Americanize All Foreign-Born Kansans
Students wishing to take entrance examinations should apply to E. F. Stipmion, Room 202, Blake Hall, on or before Wednesday, May 22, giving name, street address, and telephone number if he has one.
National Council of Defense Asks Committee to do Important Work
At the request of the National Council of Defense, the Committee on Public Relations of the Kansas State Council of Defense of which Chancellor Frank Strong is chairman, will take up work in Americanizing the foreign-born people in Kansas. The purpose of this work will be to install American ideals into the foreign born of the state and to break up alien units that formed in foreign communities.
All state councils of defense have been asked to aid in this work which is important since the outbreak of the war. The local committee will investigate the use of foreign languages and the teaching of these languages in school. The committee will try to promote the teaching of American history and American ideals to this foreign element of the state.
An important part of the work will be the attempt to break up the alien units which form in foreign settlements without interfering with their rights.
The committee which has charge of the organization of this group of volunteer workers is: Mary Nicholson, chairman, Esther Moore, Mary Brownlee, Margretta Stevenson and Esther Roop.
Women of University Plan Patriotic League
Work of Red Cross, Camp Fire Girls and Y. W. C. A. to Be Coordinated
An effort to promote patriotism in Kansas towns, through University women, is the purpose of the Patriotic League which is being organized by a committee of W. Y. W. C. A. workers here. Miss Katharine Duffield, Y. W. C. A. secretary, presented the plan to university women at the regular food conservation lecture this afternoon.
The patriotic League is a national organization and is intended to be worked out in conjunction with the Red Cross, Camp Fire Girls, Y. W. C. A., and other such organizations. It represents the patriotic side of these organizations. The members pledge themselves to be patriotic; to give any special service they can; to do their best in all places they may be put; and to live up to the highest standards of efficiency.
The aim of the organization here is to organize a group of University women who are willing to go out to their home towns this summer and organize such leagues among the girls and women. A call for volunteers to do this work was issued this afternoon.
Many Delays Hold Up Printing Of Jayhawker; Will Be Out May 25
Breaking of Copper Halfton Causes Delay—To Mail Some Annuals
Unforeseen delays at the engraving plant, resulting from the accidental breaking of a copper halftone, will make necessary the postponement of the date of publication of the University annual, "The Jayhawker," and the book now is not expected on the campus before Friday, May 24th. This is the statement made this morning by Don Davis, manager of the book.
"We regret very much that the book will not be completed on May 15, as we had expected," said Davis. "Students who have subscribed for copies, and who are leaving the University before the date of publication, will be able to secure their books parcel-pulled; they will pull their address, a hawker," giving their names and addresses. These notes can be mailed in any University mail box, or sent to 1220 Louisiana street.
Subscribers who owe a balance on their books will receive their copy by collect-on-delivery parcel post. The mail copies will be sent direct from the printing plant at Jefferson City, Missouri, and will reach the subscribers as promptly as the bookswhich are distributed here on the campus from the check stand in Fraser Hall, according to Davis.
Naval Recruiting Officer Here To Advise Students
He Considers It Advisable for Undergraduates to Remain in School
First hand advice to students who are considering enlistment in the various departments of the navy or training to become naval officers was brought to the University today by M. B. Whitzel, a petty officer of the first class, who is attached to the naval recruiting station at Kansas City. He conducted a commission Chancellor Strong and Dean Shaad and expects to remain in Lawrence today and a part of Thursday to talk to students.
Lieut. Ralph Campbell, in charge of the naval recruiting station in Kansas City, wrote to friends on the faculty that he believed Kansas men would find the opportunities the navy offers university men exceedingly well worth looking into. He said Mr. Whitzel was prepared to answer all questions and would be pleased to talk to as many University men as possible.
"While the navy has branches of service that should interest and offer excellent opportunities to every university man," said Mr. Campbell, "we are particularly eager to have students of the School of Engineering to consider the advisability of their remaining in school until graduation. After they are graduated the navy offers excellent training facilities for them to become naval officers."
K.U. Architects Enter Beaux Arts Race Again
A "Country Chapel" and "A Problem of the Order" is the title of the six competitions that have recently been entered in the Beaux Arts competition at New York, by the department of architecture of the School of Engineering.
The drawings are entered in two classes and will be judged about May 27; announcements will be made in June.
To date the department has the honor of being 100 per cent efficient in all competitive exhibitions entered in the Beaux Arts this year.
Plain Tales From The Hill
A CORRECTION COMES
A correction—Arthur MacMurray desires to be quoted as saying that the presentation of "Comus" on the golf links Thursday is not a May Fete.
The reason for making this sweeping statement is that he fears the K. U. play-goers will not come with sufficient funds. This is an honest-to-goodness vaudeville show, music, dancing, costumes, scenery, special lighting effects, and everything.
The expense of presenting the coming production has been, and is being, cut to the minimum. Natural scenery has been obtained for many scenes. And even the leading man is sparing the expense of a wig by denying himself a hair cut for nearly twelve weeks, now.
AFTER THE SWIMMING MEET "Oh-oo-o," sighed Mary, "my ribs are so sore!"
There was a roar.
"I've been in swimming," explained the shy young thing, a bit embarrassed.
"Yes," was the rejoinder in a typical sophomorism, "swimming in an ocean of love, with a kiss on each wave! ! ! "
Euthanasia for adopting military life (to some extent) has penetrated to one of the rooming houses on Tennessee Street. One co-ed has purchased a tin bugle, and every night she sounds "taps" for all lights out.
In the morning though, she sleeps until after time for "reveille."
From the group of men and women gathered around the table in Fraser Hall, and from the amazing rapidity which a dapper, smooth-hairged gentleman flourishes a tape-measure and takes down measurements, one would think that the dignity of r raser Hall had been affronto!
"Brick" is only taking measurements for commencement gowns.
Professor Elmer was discoursing a sermon texts in sociology class.
He said: "A minister strenuously objected to the fashion of women's hair dress at one time when the prevailed style was empire, a high top knot on the head. So he preached a sermon on the text, 'Top-knot come down.' His text was taken from the verse in Revelations which reads 'and let those on the house top not come down.'
"Another minister about this time preached on the text, 'The wicked fee,' taken from the Bible verse which reads, 'Then shall the wicked fee.'"
Professor Boynton asked one of his classes if there were any automobiles manufactured in Kansas. One stude piped up with a, "Yes, Professor, in Tulsa."
The class laughed.
Professor Boynton then asked if there was any coal found in Kansas, and after receiving an answer in the affirmative he asked what kind of coal it was. Another student spouted "Black coal." The class laughed again.

Moon To Cast Shadow Across United States Afternoon Of June 8
Line of Totality Strikes Garden City, in Western Kansas
Scientists Much Interested
Eastern Kansas Will See Partial Eclipse for Nearly Two Hours
Thence it will pass directly across the continent from Oregon and Washington to Florida, making the entire cross-continent trip in forty-seven minutes. The eclipse finally stops at sunset close to the Bahama Islands in the Atlantic Ocean.
On the afternoon of June 8, 1918, a notable astronomical event will occur. The passing of the moon directly between the sun and the earth will cause a shadow to fall on the earth. This shadow will be seen first at sunrise far out in the Pacific Ocean. Traveling swiftly eastward it will soon arrive at the mouth of the Columbia River.
FIRST IN NEARLY FIFTY YEARS
FIRST IN NEARLY FIFTY YEARS
The path of the total eclipse passes through southwestern Kansas diagonally and hits Syrucne, Garden City, Dodge City, and Gurling. It can be seen at Lawrence it is to be ninety-two per cent total. Here the eclipse will start before 5:30 and end about 7:30 o'clock.
It is the first total eclipse in the central part of the United States since 1869, and if the weather man does not interfere with its beauty by ordering a cloudy day, it will be an experience worth remembering.
The eclipse will be total at Dodge City for one minute and five seconds and may be seen as a partial eclipse for more than two hours.
Astronomers will flock to the path of totality from almost every part of the earth to see and record the special phenomena.
VISIBLE AT MANY PLACES
VISIBLE AT MANY PLACES
Those who stay at home will not miss the entire show, for the eclipse will be visible in all parts of the United States, the moon covering three-fourths of the sun's surface with a black disk at even such distant points as Los Angeles and Washington.
The shadow will be sixty-six miles in diameter in the state of Washington and will become gradually smaller. Anyone happening to be at a high point may see a starling sight by watching its approach. A spot on the earth's surface will present an awesome and terrifying sight.
When the eclipse becomes total the sun's corona will be seen around the earth.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 1918
BY THEIR WORKS
In June another senior class will go out from the University to take its place with the already large number of K. U. alumni. Every member of this class, whether he will it or not, will become an advertisement, good or bad, for his Alma Mater. People through the state are watching the sons and daughters of the University to see what they are and what they can do. From the alumni of the University the people form their opinion of the institution.
The wcr; nothing else matters.
Where the graduate goes or what he does makes little difference. So long as his work is honorable and he does it well he will be a good advertisement for the University. The alumnus who does nothing or whose work is not creditable or reputable is also an advertisement, but that advertisement is of the kind that repels rather than attracts. Such an advertisement can undo the work of many good ones.
University men and women going back to their homes after four years in college should be fitted to render a greater service than could have been possible without their education. They have had a superior training and the community has a right to expect more of them than of those who have had no such training. Graduates of this year's class who have the good of the University at heart will remember this, and will go out to live such a life and render such a service as will make them worthy of the institution that graduated them.
Without saying who killed it, or saying that anyone did anything more than let it die when it could have lived, undeniably the death of the bill for drafting aliens can be laid to a willfully negligent Congress.
PREMATURE DEMISE
Somebody said something last summer about foreign diplomatic complications arising from an alien draft, but answer came from every one of the allies to go ahead. Russia, home of races that constitute a majority of alien slackers in the United States, has changed considerably since then, and yet quite consistently within racial proclivities. To make a man of one from such tribes, even if a United States uniform, has to be put on him to do it, is a blessing to him and to the world.
The bill —was there a bill? The bill —did it get before a committee let alone get out alive from a committee? The bill, or at least the idea —what has become of it? To whose interest is it that thus it should be thrust aside?
But to whose interest is—or was
—this sudden funeral hus over the alien draft? To many of the aliens from the one point of view of ingratitude and cowardiness that lets other men die for them,—this is true. To Congressmen who don't want to go on record before future naturalized citizens—this is also true. And the second truth is more pertinent than the first.
After the war these same aliens will still be here. They will clamor for citizenship then. They are afraid to take out first papers for naturalization now, but they will come to court when the army doesn't need them. They will fill up the places of American young men who don't come back with the army. And whom will they vote for? The answer is another question—would they vote for a man, or with his political party, who brought them within the draft and made them to the duty as a test of future citizenship?
ADVICE TO IRELAND
The alien draft bill has got to be exhumed for autopsy even if it cannot be resurrected. Personal and party ambitions, if involved, have got to be brought to light. The soldiers of America who are going out to battle today have a right to know why men who are to share citizenship with them later are not marching beside them now.
BONDS INSTEAD OF BONES
Irishmen living in Augusta, Ga.
have sent this message to John Dillon
leader of the Irish nationalists:—
It is a lamentable fact that despite the statutes forbidding it, and despite the adverse opinion of a respectable portion of the student body, gambling is still going on among a few men in the University. If it must continue, and there is little doubt that it will to a certain extent, strenuous missionary efforts might be undertaken to see that it is done with Thrift Stamps and Liberty Bonds, thus giving it an appearance of patriotism and respectability that it could not otherwise have.
"Meeting of Irishmen of Augusta, Ga., indorses granting of home rule and extension of conscription to Ireland. We expect Irishmen in Ireland to fight with the allies as the Irishmen in America are doing."
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
All the way from the channel coast over to where the Alps melt into the Adriatic there is a line of men holding a series of trenches against an adversary, and that line gives a little here and there, and we watch with anxiety the movement of that line, and it is not unnatural for us to feel that the fate of the struggle is determined by that line.
The authors of this telegram might have added, as thousands of Irishmen of Ireland are doing also. The opposition to conscription in Ireland is apt to make us forget that a good many thousands of the Irish of Ireland have been fighting the Germans as volunteers since the beginning, and that they have been fighting with the gallantry which has always characterized the Irish in warfare has been testified to many times in the dispatches. What other characteristics of Augusta ask that their kinsman of Ireland shall emulate the irishmen not only of this country, but those thousands who went forth from Ireland the instant the world's freedom was challenged by the Germans.
It is wise counsel they have given. Ireland will owe the home rule of which it is now practically assured in no little part to the lively and constant sympathy, which it has received from the United States. It would be an ill return of that help and sympathy to refuse to fight in a cause in which the United States is now as deeply involved as is Great Britain—Dallas News.
And yet it is not a question of square miles of territory, but it is a question of the national spirit and the eternity of moral principles in the world, and even if that line were broken, so long as the people of Great Britain, France and Italy and the United States remain true to the moral foundations upon which they have built their respective civilizations, victory cannot go against us.—Secretary Newton D. Baker.

The Allies seem determined to pound the Hun out of Hungary.

What would the magazine-cover artists do without soldiers, sailors and service flags? Some one asks. It might be that they don't care, but the rest of us would do without them.

Now that the salvage committee announces that one of the prime purposes of salvage collection is to encourage thrift we are forcibly impressed that by the time this war is over the proverbial Chinese will be a prodigal spendthrift in comparison.
A total eclipse of the sun, scheduled for June 18, of 92 per cent efficiency in this locality, will give old settlers an opportunity to recall the eclipse before the Civil War, when the chickens went to roost and the cows came home.

CAMPUS OPINION
Let's make a drive on the salvage box. Although quite a little salvage has been collected and sold from the box in Fraser Hall there has not been nearly as much as there should have been. This probably seems like a small thing but as it has been said, "It is little things that count."
One fraternity has placed in charge of this work a Freshman whose duty it is to gather up all the salvage about the house and see that it gets to the salvage box in Fraser. This would be a good plan for all the fraternities to adopt. The same plan applies to the University. Let's all get behind the salvage box and see what we can really make of it, and show those that are in charge of the work that the University is behind them and the Red Cross.

RADISHES
Or even skins of black,
Or those with purple sides

I like little, sweet, round radishes
With rosy skins
Or skins of snowy white;
Little round radishes with pinky

Fine long; Sister radishes
Of any color
And other numbers;
Radishes of all shapes and sizes
And any quality of texture
So long they're young and sweet
And can be eaten.
And for dinner
And for supper, too;
Radishes between meals
Morning, afternoon and night;
Radishes the year round
And oodles of them.
(Ispired by address of William Jennings Bryan at the University of Kansas, June 6, 1917.)

ACCURACY--it has no small meaning with the policy of the Daily Kansan! The paper is often caused delays of from fifteen to thirty minutes, by changing a misspelled word, or verifying a "last minute" news item, or in some other way following accuracy.

Miss Sybil Woodruff Gave Food Lecture On "Fat, Oils And Meats"
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Speaker Explained Uses and Possibilities of Many Palatable Substitutes
Miss Sybil Woodruff of the department of home economics took the place of E. D. Teetor and delivered the food conservation lecture for women students this afternoon in Fraser chapel. Miss Woodruff took for her students the lecture and spoke of the necessity of conserving these important foods.
"The people of the United States consume a larger proportion of fats than any other nation," said Miss Woodruff. "Our average is over one-half pound per week for each person, while the British food administrator allows only four ounces a week, and even this if often hard to get. In Germany the fat shortage has become serious, and the food is flavorless and unappetizing."
MANY SUBSTITutes RICH IN FATS Many foods which are not purchased as fats have a high percentage of fat in their make-up. Miss Woodruff stated. These include cheese, nuts, olives, eggs and milk. The United States has an exceedingly large supply of vegetable oils and these are useful in taking the place of the animal oils.
"There are two ways in which we may conserve," said Miss Woodruff. "The first is to do away with the waste of meat scraps, for which American women were noted before the war. The second is the substitution of vegetable fats for the animal product, which has become scarce on account of the lessened production and the many soldiers who are fed much of this kind of food. Fresh lard and butter in cooking are not-essentials; meat left-overs may be utilized."
SOME SUBSTITUTES ARE EXPENSIVE
"Meats are eaten chiefly for the proteins which they contain," continued Miss Wooldruff. "Other foods containing an equal value of proteins are the meat substitutes whose use is being so strongly advocated. These include cheese, nuts, and leguminous vegetables, such as beans and peas. Formerly, the use of meat substitutes was urged solely because many of them were cheaper, but now at a time when it is essential to conserve every scrap of meat, we are being called upon to use substitutes which are actually more expensive. Fish is one of these and will become cheaper as its use becomes more widespread."
"The Americans are a meat-eating nation, consuming far more animal products than is necessary. The average amount eaten per year by each person is 178 pounds, which is much more than other nations use. We spend about twice as much for meat as is necessary."

Jayhawker Nine Opens Series With Missouri At Columbia Today
Slawson, Best Hurler Developer Here This Season, Probable Pitching Selection
This Is The Crucial Series
Kansas Fielding Is Excellent But Team Is Shy of Slahmen
The Jayhawker baseball nine left for Columbia, Mo., yesterday afternoon where they will meet Missouri in a three-game series starting today. The Missourians won their series with the Ames Cyclones, two out of three, and should make the going to the Kansas team this afternoon.
TIGER PITCHING IS GOOD Urie, of Missouri, is one of the best pitchers in the conference and probably will face Slawson this afternoon. Slawson is the best on Kansas twining and has been scored upon this season. Slawson has near-perfect control and is a heavy moundman.
The Kansans have been hitting fairly well in the games played this year and should win against the Tigers if the K. U. twirlers can hold the enemy to a few runs. If Slawson is not effective against the Tigers, the Kansas team will have a hard time to come back and win the series.
CRUCIAL SERIES AT COLUMBIA Kansas, Missouri, and Ames are the only Valley teams playing baseball this year and this series will have direct bearing upon the final Valley standing as Missouri has won over Ames, and K. U. broke even when Ames played here. If Kansas loses the Missouri series they will have to win all of the remaining games on their schedule to win the Valley championship.
INFIELD IS GOING GOOD
INFIELD is GOING GOOD
This afternoon Bunn probably will work behind the bat. Cherry will be at first, Isenberger at second, Foster at short and Lonborg at third.
This infield has played some good ball this season but a repetition of the work done in the last Ames game may mean defeat. Weltmer, Keeler, and Oyster have been the most consistent fielders on the squad and probably will start in the game today.
War Crackers Rigged Of Something Lasting But In K. U. Uncertain
First Consignment of Soda Substitutes Puzzles Students
War soda crackers have come into their own within this week, and now a stray relic of the real old-fashioned soda cracker is on the K. U. tables among half a ton or so of the yellowish gray everlastings that have brownish gritty pebbles in them to give them further stability.
The old supply lasted longer than dealers expected they would and for a long time Lawrence store cellars and back rooms have had cases of stuff that would pass for dynamite, cement, wood ashes, or high grade fertilizer, all in cracker shape, waiting for the evening meal that would at last need them. "They are intended for patriotic consumption," is the way one grocer defended his new goods. The undergrad customer said something about it's taking a regular patriot to stand up and take them and bought an extra pot of jam to slide them down easier.
APPEARANCES NOT DECEITFUL
APPEARANCES NOT DELEGUEFU
The crackers taste much as they look and look much as they taste. "Ghastly" said one good woman who has to serve them to students that have just got to be willing. "Looks like a railroad wreck of a stock train put through a kiln and pulverized," she reported from a medic's commentary.
"Wood ashes, sulphur, cement—or ground bones—tastes like all put together," this from a fraternity house on Tennessee street. Somebody said he fair to dogs and other household pets. All agreed that dogs should come first.
FORMULA KEPT SECRET
All inquiries made concerning sources of the combination behind the cracker have revealed that the Hill declaims possession of any such information and refuses to theorize. One declared it unsafe to speculate, for since the things have got to be eaten, he thought it
best to let the secret pass when war passes.
No casualties are reported to date, though every eater has expectations. Digestions are still unimpaired; at least no cases have come from cracker causes to the University Hospital. It is likely that the majority actually accustom people to their presence and proper disposal without any physical harm.
Kansas Editors Meet
At Wichita This Week
L. N. Flint and W. B. Brown Will Represent Journalism
Faculty
The Department of Journalism will be represented at the Kansas State Editorial Association meeting to be held this week at Wichita, by Prof. L. N. Flint and Supt. W. B. Brown The chief purpose of the association is discussion of the problems of an editor. This year half day sessions will be devoted to the work of women on newspapers, with only women speakers. Major-General Leonard Wood and William Allen White will give addresses. The editors will visit the oil fields near Wichita, and will be guests of the Commercial Club at a banquet.
The association met in Lawrence two years ago, and last year in Topeka. It is probable, according to Professor Flint, that the meeting next year will be held in Topeka, since the association would meet there during the session of the legislature. Newspaper week at the University will not be held this year on account of war conditions.

Last Call For Poems Contest Ends Friday
Trumpets to the west east, south, and north, and then the heralds at dawn gave warning; the prize poem contest of the Kansan has gone far enough. The judges are longing for an end of hostilities. The poets who have already done their durnedest are looking for the last competitor to come into the lists. The editors declare they can't hold open the gates another minute beyond 3 o'clock in the afternoon of Friday. May 10.
Not one poem will be accepted after the time limit set. But the last grand dumping of copy ought to keep the column set aside for such artistic depredations well filled for another week. The editors beg that aspirants be not deceived; though poems be printed all shall have to come in before the set hour on Friday. They expect the best poem will come in late and are already regretting the duty to throw it out.

Specially Trained Men Wanted For Enlistment In U. S. Naval Reserve
N. B. Whitzel, Petty Officer Talked to Engineers This Morning
Reservists Will Graduate
Many K. U. Engineers Will Go To Kansas City to Enlist, Saturday
"The Navy wants every available man with technical training," according to N. B. Whitzel, a petty officer, who is attached to the naval recruiting station at Kansas City, in an address to the students of the School of Engineering in Marvin Hall lecture room at 11 o'clock this morning. By enlisting in the naval college courses and become commissioned officers by the time they graduate.
During the summer the members of the reserve are sent to the Great Lakes Naval Station where they receive practical experience in shops and aboard ships. During this summer training they are rated as second class seamen and receive $35.00 a month and all equipment. Their transportation is paid both ways. During the school months they are sent back to their schools and are given two months retainer pay.
MAY TRAIN FOR COMMISSION.
Graduates of engineering school may also receive training by which they may get a commission. Their course is given at Stephens Institute, in certain shops in New York and aboard ocean going ships. In case they should drop out before the course is completed they will be enlisted at whatever rating they are fitted for. In most cases they would be made petty officers.
Only in the case of a great National emergency would members of the reserve be called out before their graduation, before their graduation from school.
Mr. Whitzel will be in Lawrence until Saturday and will be at the post office to give information to persons interested in enlisting in navy.
MANY EXPECTED TO JOIN Members of the School of Engineering wishing to enlist in this reserve will be sent to Kansas City Saturday morning for physical examination. A large number of students expressed a desire to join and it is probable that a large number will go to Kansas City, Saturday morning.
Kansas Loses 8 To 2 In K. U.-M. U. Opener On Missouri's Field
Urie, Star Tiger Hurler, Held Jayhawker Team to Only Four Hits
Urie, the star twirler on the Missouri baseball team, held the Jayhawkers to four hits and struck out fourteen men in the game at Columbia yesterday. The Kansas队 booted the ball, chalking up five errors. The Tigers played a good game in the field making only two errors and getting eleven hits off the K. U. slab men.
The Missouri nine counted a pair of runs in the first inning. Kansas came back with a tally in their half and another in the third inning. After that Uri held the Kansans away from the plate. The Tigers rallied in the eighth, making four runs.

Students, instructors and visitors in the department of journalism will miss Tuesday.

Jayhawker KuKlux Klan Stalked Forth at Night After Forgetful Frosh
Rumors Say Well Organized Band Worked Silently and Effectively
The black hours of the night. A call at the door. A masked band of men. A swift automobile ride. Then a jolly time. An eventful walk home.
These words are not meaningless to some members of the freshman class this morning, for the Red Vigils were busy last night. Freshmen who continually have disregarded the ancient tradition of the University of wearing freshman caps were the hosts of this modern Ku Klux Klan.
As near as it is able to be learned this morning, no rough work was done last night. The Red Vigils were well organized and did their work in an orderly manner—if not a pleasant manner to the children. There were several bands of the Vigils for freshmen from various parts of town were visited.
The costume of the tradition-offenders, when they wandered back to their dwelling places is said to have resembled that of the traditional swimmer who lost his clothes. For any one curious to know who were visited last night, may trust to his olfactory sense for the right answer.
According to the stgn at the entrance of the campus and rumors afloat this morning, more visits will be made until all offending of the tradition is stopped.
Everything Complete For Comus Production In Out of Doors Theater
Final Rehearsal Held Outdoor Electric Lamps Will Flood Stage With Light
"The stage and players are ready for the outdoor production of the masque, "Comus," which will be given tonight at 8:30 o'clock," said Prof. Arthur MacMurray this morning. "If it does not rain, the play will be held in the golf links amphitheater. Otherwise the gymnasium will be used."
The final dress rehearsal of the cast was Wednesday night and was held on the outdoor stage across the golf links, west of the Museum. The scenery was nearly all prepared with a background of limbs of trees and wings of similar greenery. Powerful electric lamps flooded the stage with light and gave a variety of color effects.
Seventeen LL. B's will be granted in the School of Law this year. Formerly the number averaged about 45. The present enrollment of the School of Law is fifty-five; last year at this time it was about 175.
Chars will be placed on the hill-side facing the stage today, sufficient for a large audience. Men have been recruited from the military drill classes and other sources for guard duty at the amphi-theater tonight to keep intruders out and silence noisy individuals.
The music of the University Orchestra, which plays for "Comus", is well adapted to the masque, and the orchestra, under the direction of Prof. F. E. Kendrie, has it well in hand. The actors, satyrs, nymphs, and other dancers are well practised and prepared for their parts. Atmosphere for the production is created largely by the costumes, which were procured from a Kansas City costume house.
"The School of Law has suffered more than any other school in decreased enrollment on account of the war," said "Uncle Jimmy" Green this morning, "and for this reason women should enter the profession.
Seventeen Laws Will Degrees This Year
"There is no reason why they should not be as successful in this as they have been in all other fields which they have entered. I am sure there is nothing which they can study that will give more mental demand than "the Dam said" "Women do not generally take to court work or regular law practice but they have been very successful in law office work. I hope to see many women in the School of Law next year."
K. U. Senate Suggests Limitation on Prices And Hours of Dances
After Discussion, Matter is Left for Action by Students Themselves
The resolution was not voted on, because a majority of the Senate seemed to favor allowing the students, as represented by the Men's Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association, and Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women at K. U., to suggest changes and to have some say in this matter, which even some of the members of the Senate believed smacked of taking away too much of the student liberties.
Members of the faculty of the University of Kansas are in favor of war economy even down to the few dances which the students of the University give on Friday and Saturday nights. At the meeting of the University Senate this week a resolution was introduced to limit the cost of admission to all student dances to $1, and making it compulsory that all dances close at 12 o'clock midnight. It was argued that the resolution whether the $1 admission included a couple or only one person going to the dance.
Several members of the Senate openly opposed the measure because they thought that it was a matter that the students should decide for themselves if the matter was to be changed any from the present rules which do not allow parties to last longer than 12 o'clock except in the case of annual parties, one organization being allowed to give one of these each year.
The admission price this year has been set through the advice of George O. Foster, who has had charge of auditing of student funds, and no admission price has been set without his approval. The result has been a great reduction in the price of admittance to many dances.
Many students interviewed today said they are in favor of some student regulation or resolution in regard to setting a maximum on the admission to most of the dances as a war measure, and that this maximum should be $1 or $1.50. They believed there is no reason for changing the closeness of dancers lasted later than 12 o'clock. They said that the good judgment of the students had in the main result in most dances closing at 12 o'clock.
Vernon Kellogg, Former K. U. Man, Will Talk On Hoover And War
Author Was Delegate in North ern France for Belgian Relief Commission
Vernon Kellogg, who will be the guest of Phi Beta Kappa here Tuesday, May 13, is a Kansas man. He was born in Emporia and received his A. B. from the University of Kansas in 1889 and his A. M. in 1892. Afterwards he was a law professor with the universities of Paris and Leipzig. At present he is doing research for the biological section of the National Council of Defense.
Mr. Kellogg was the representative of the Commission for Relief in Belgium in Northern France in 1915. His "Official Story of Belgian Relief" came out in the World's Work last year. In addition he has written "Headquarters Night" for the Atlantic and a sketch of "The Other Hoover Type" and "Type II" also appeared in the Atlantic. He has had opportunity to study the war situation from inside the German lines.
As an entomologist Mr. Kellogg is also widely known in the United States. He is the author of several text books on entomology and of various scientific studies. Among the best known of his works are "Common Injurious Insects of Kansas," "American Insects," and "Insect Stories." Since 1911 he has been editor of the "Philosophy of Nature" series. Before the war he was professor of entomology and lecturer in binomics at Leland Stanford University. At one time he was secretary to former Chancellor Snow here.
Mr. Kellogg will speak to the University students at 8 o'clock Tuesday night, after attending the initiation and banquet of Phi Beta Kappa.
Professor Sets Style In Spring Straw Hats
Women are not the only ones who herald the arrival of spring by their changes in apparel.
A white straw hat on a professor appeared on Mount Oread this week. The hat is not a 1917 Panama, nor a 1920 Straw, but an "honest to goodness," 1918 creation, with a broad, round brim which turns up all around, a high crown and finished with a white ribbon.
This wearing of straw hats early in May is establishing a new precedent at K. U. But the fact that it is worn by a member of the faculty in the Art Department of the University, who without doubt, gave the matter grave consideration from an artistic stand point before venturing forth on the campus, makes it perfectly safe and sane for any young man on the hill, with the exception of a freshman, to pack away his green felt and don a cool white straw hat.
Plain Tales From The Hi!
They tell this about Company A, which is missing the leadership of Harold Lytle:
H. Washington, who is captain of Company B, of the University regimental forces, took charge of the regiment one day this week. He was the high mogul—major to be exact. A lieutenant commanded Company A.
After forming a line of skimishers in the more shady regions of the golf links, there came a lull in the visible activities of this unit. Finally Major Washington saw that the best thing that Company A had been doing for fifteen minutes, was resting in the shade of green trees.
The company was more active the remainder of the drill period.
He walked over, took charge of this company, marched them across the campus in the blazing sun at a speedy "double time" and then turned the company over to the subbing lieutenant.
The learned professor hurriedly scribbled the outline of Napoleon's life on the board; the class watched his unhesitating hand, and wondered, sadly, if there was anything he did not know. Suddenly he paused, turned to the empty-headed audience and demanded:
"What is it you call this thing—when people go away after they're married, I mean?"
A professor at K. U. has tried to raise rabbits to cut down the high cost of living. He told his class today that several of his rabbits had disappeared.
"The environments were not right for the rabbits, but they were exceptionally good for the neighborhood cats."
A learned professor has produced a new one. Today when a student "pulled a bone," the professor said, "Oh what beautiful food for a dog."
During a sort of "movie" show of the moon in geology class, a student viewing the many craters, etc., in the surface of the moon advanced this: "My but that moon is in a bad condition, but I don't think it has a thing on the 'pill boxes' in France."
One of the things to be thankful for during this warm spell is that you are not a student in the department of architecture. For instance, stripped to the waist, with streamlens of water running off in all directions, the tireless students work on their drawings in the top of Marvin Hall, while the sun shining through the glass sky-lights gently kisses their backs. Every time they shake their heads they create a regular rain storm.
Men Named To Adjust Military Drill Question
At a meeting of the Senate Tuesday, the men who will have charge of the plans for military drill next fall were elected. The six men who will fill this position are: Professors F' H, Hodder, G. A. Davis, F. B. Dains, W. B. Harrington, W. O. Hamilton and M. E. Brink commander of the K. U. reiment.
These men will meet some time before commencement to make the plans.
University women who wish to act as Big Sisters, next fall, and have not yet signed cards are asked to call Mary Burnett at phone 1897, or notify Katherine Duffield at the Y. W. C. A. office.
Herbert Hoover Has World Of Patriotism Says Dean Templin
Newspapermen Know They Can Depend On What Hoover
Says
May Go Back
Food Administrator Works Without Salary at Personal Loss
"Any one in Washington who has had any relations with Herbert Hoover is completely under his influence. He is one man with a world of patriotism and a master mind such that he can carry his difficult work through the rain." And him are proud that we might be in the shadow of such a personality."
Dean Olin Templin, who just returned from Washington this week, where he has been serving as director of the collegiate section of the Federal Food Administration, was speaking of Herbert Hoover, the man by whose authority millions of people are fed each day.
HOOVER'S WORD IS GOOD
HOVER'S WORD is GOOD
"Why, even the newspaper men in Washington are under the domination of his brother, continued the dean. 'They have found two things about Mr. Hoover. First they know that he is absolutely straight-forward, that there is no gush about him, and second that he always tells the truth. He may not always talk when they want him to, but they know that they can believe what he does say.
"There is something strange about Mr. Hoover. He has none of the characteristics that you and I would believe a leader needs. He is timid and retiring and he is not a good talker. But he does have a master mind and we are carrying work with him carefully. He does not without any salary and I do not doubt but that he loses fifty thousand dollars a year in expenses."
TEMPLIN MAY STAY AT K. U.
TEMPLIN MAY STAT.
When questioned whether he would remain at the University or return to Washington to work, Dean Templin replied that he had not yet decided. "I hardly know what to do," said the dean. "I feel that Herbert Hoover is a man who might stop any one of us and ask us to go to work and that we should do whatever we could."
Dean Templin recently received a letter from Herbert Hoover praising the work he had done in the collegiate section and urging him to reconsider his resignation. Whether the dean will remain at the University or not will probably be decided soon. Dean Templin will go to Washington next week to arrange personal affairs there.

The third annual typewriting contest between high schools of Kansas will be held in Fraser Hall, May 10, at 2 o'clock. Thirty-two high school students are now enrolled, representing eight Kansas towns.
F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Education, has received a large silver loving cup from Gov. Arthur Capper to be given to the high school whose students are most rapid and accurate in typewriting. The contest was held on Tuesday April 26th to encourage the study of typewriting in Kansas high schools.
Editor from Osawatomie Will Talk to Students
Keith Clevergen, editor of the Osawatime Graphic, will visit the University of Kansas Monday and talk to classes in journalism. He was a K. U. student six or eight years ago and started in active newspaper work on his father's paper, the "Graphic" in 1911. He took charge of the paper about three years ago when his father died.

THURSDAY,MAY 9,1918
The war; nothing else matters.
WE SHALL MISS THEM
Today the Laws finish their work and leave the University. And those of us who are left here will notice their absence, and will miss them. The whole University will miss the crowd gathered on the steps of Green Hall, and the game of tossing pennies out in front. The capless freshman will miss them and will pass about the campus unafraid. Even the University Senate and the department of physical education will miss them, too.
Many times in the past we have laughed at the Laws for their braggadocio and their bluster and their noise, but for all that we cannot help admire them. We know that they have always had more than their share of the true University spirit, and that they have done more than anyone else to uphold the traditions of K. U. We know that as a school they have clung closer together than the other schools and have been able to accomplish things that the other schools have found impossible. And we know too that when the country called for men to serve in the present struggle the School of Law sent a larger percentage of its number than any other school or department at the University. Such things we cannot but appreciate, and for this, too, we shall miss them. And today, as we bid them goodbye and Godspeed we don't mind telling them that we shall miss them.
KEEP THE NEEDLES FLYING
The young women of the University of Kansas are intelligently loyal to their country. Through the long winter months they knitted patriotically and faithfully. Time and weather have brought a change, and, perhaps with a characteristic they share with their brothers, they have not used quite so much yarn as they did.
win the first warm days of spring came the colorful sleeveless coats, flashiest of feminine fashions, and needles were turned to produce these. Illegically the wielders of the neodies had reason that soldiers would be warm enough now, and, the soldiers comfortable, they could work the creation in bright blue for themselves, to finish their own spring wardrobes.
Now University women are expected to use logic out of class if university education is to mean anything at all to them. That pretty sweater's appeal to the fancy does not make the men of the navy or in aviation any less in need of knitted garments this summer. And sure as Christmas it is going to be cold in the next冬天. No matter
how much knitting is done, there will not be enough sweaters to go around for all the more than two million men who will be over then.
Not their bit, but their whole share and a little more is the duty of every woman of the University who can hold a needle in her hands and make it move creatively through khaki colored yarn. Their failure to do the work might be remembered. Their work, however, will not be forgotten even if they are never known in connection with it individually.
WHAT THEY DID
They went to a food conservation lecture yesterday afternoon, the women of the University did. The speaker was one substituting for Mrs. Teetor, the regular food conservation lecturer. As the lecture progressed, the rustling of papers, the scratching of pencils, the shuffling of many feet, and the constant buzz of loud whispers so drowned the speaker's voice that only a few women in the front row were able to hear.
The lecturer spoke on rapidly telling of the many ways in which college women might help win the war, but members of the audience prattled of dates, pleasure trips, dances, parties, and plans for their summer vacations. As the end of the hour approached the whisper's become audible conversations, punctuated by unsupressed giggles, and the gallery seats, one by one, were emptied.
Then came the end of the hour:
The speaker paused and spoke of the lack of time for finishing the lecture,
but before she could conclude the women in a body rose, talked out loud,
and left the speaker talking to empty seats.
IN BEHALF OF GREECE
The bored sigh used to sifte when anything Greek or anciently and liberally cultural was mentioned. But it isn't the fashion any more; the joke is gone; the customary reaction is a fauz pas. And yet to one type of student within the University who came with purpose grim enough though not broad enough appreciation of Greek drama, epic, elegale, or ode is only fashionable, hollow, hypocritical, sissified, and strictly highbrow.
Modern society and modern art as a reinforcement of society's highest and most enduring interests,—are found in and on the ideas and ideas of classical antiquity. Greek is not dead. It could not die. It animates the creative force of every century since those who first conceived it sought the Elyssium their beautiful mythology made fairer than any Calvinistic heaven. Both fascinating and educative are the annals of the Golden Age whatever form of expression they take.
"Dead stuff," the sidetracked student calls all things Greek the while he amasses statistical information and scientific data as the more pertinent material to his life. "Dead stuff," he labels it until in one last semester he delves into the very heart of modern ethics, politics, art, science, and philosophy not bounded but unbounded and brimming over from the precious content of Greek culture. Myth, folklore, parable, reflecting the cultural ancestry of the twentieth century are barely given a partial bird's eye view. The loss is felt the more keenly because it is too late to retrieve. The University had it here all the time. It will always be here
Eddie Morris, the well-known American comedian now appearing in this country, tells the story of an Irishman who came home one night with a blackened eye, a broken nose, and a split lip.
"Shame on ye!" Bridget cried; "a big beller like you to be letked by a little hard-drinkin' cockroach like Tim Sullivan! Why. he—"

UNCLE IKE SAYS By P. Young
Lend your ear to Nature's whisper,
There's a message that she'd tell.
Listen to her mighty mountains,
To her trees that lisp an' sigh,
To her birds whose tiny fountains
10 her birds whose tiny rountains
Of sweet song will never die;
To her sun that shows his face
dest as reg'lar as can be,
An' who's run a mighty race,
Run it all for you an me.
Her mountains say: "Young man, be might,
In mind an' body an' in soul,
Lift your face to the stars above ye
That have watched the ages roll;"
An' her trees say: "Man, be stalwart,
Stand up straight an' tail an' grand,
Lisp the word of heaven's blessing,
Sig it land throughout the land."
An' her sun says: "Be ye faithful,
Oh, be faithful, never fail,
For should I forget my duty
Even ruddy earth would pale."
An' her birds say: "Free your spirit, Let it seek the realms above. In its flight let nothing veer it; Sing of that it's born of love;"
That's her message boys, jest hear it; be mighty, stalwart, faithful, free; If ye'd only listen to it.
It's fer all,fer you an' me.
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
WAR-TIME DEGREES
The plan of awarding war-time degrees, as adopted recently at New Haven, appears in another column of this issue. Though there are attached many specific regulations, which are individual to Yale, the action was taken in accordance with a policy that was universally recognized last spring by the universities and colleges all over the country.
Yale is to be congratulated upon the establishment of a system of war credit, and while there are a few irregularities which seem unfair, such as the stipulation that only commissioned officers may apply for war credit, it does not pose a consistency of attitude toward the undergraduates' relation to war activity.
This policy, if we have determined it aight, has not risen from high, charitable motives on the part of the university authorities, for the awarding of credit last year to those seniors who entered the service can not be construed as an act conferring an honour. But the action was prompted by a desire of the university to recognize serious academic work.
MENTAL LAPSES
Tommy. That's cause if the groom backs out, there'll be someone to take his hand.
If the university would adopt a plan similar to the action taken last spring it would act as a stimulus to greater effort in academic work among students who perhaps are anticipating a call to service before the end of the term. War degrees and credit should be conferred only in recognition of serious application on the part of the student, and should not be withheld if a greater part of the course has been completed—Daily Princetonian.

Woman's Land Army Met To Discuss Plans Of Future Farm Help
gency
Expect to Fill County Supply of Help in Case of Emer-
Plans for the work to be done by the University Woman's Land Army were made last night when the chairmen of the committees for the different counties in Kansas met with the executive committee of the land army.
WILL CATALOG DEMANDS
executive committee of the army.
"We do not believe it will be possible to train us before we begin the end of school so a large number of women can be placed on farms this summer," said Dr. Ida H. Hyde at the meeting, "but in case of an emergency in your own county you will probably supply the need."
WILL CATALOG DEMANDS
Doctor Hyde said the work until next spring would consist largely in cataloguing the demands for help on the farms, and getting the farmers interested in the organization.
"Here is a way to show the farmers that University women are willing to do practical work on the farms," said Mimie Moody, chairman of the executive committee, "and allyships should be established able he light, next year our organization will be completely ready to sunny the requests for help."
CHANCE TO SHOW PATRIOTISM
One chairman said the women in
their movement were interested
in this movement, and would do
all they could to further it.
"I think we should be very glad to be of assistance to the farmers in our own community," she said, "and I am going to show my patriotism by standing ready so next spring when labor is scarce I can really help."
By the Way
Prof. and Mrs. Grover Loud, and son, D'ArcyLray Miss Towne, Miss Winston, Miss Duffield, Prof. Samuel Catell, Prof. Edward Gage, and Prof. Beaupariant were guests at a dinner given by Prof. and Mrs. E. M. Hopkins Tuesday night.

University Track Team Would Retrieve Honors At Missouri Dual Meet
Quarter Mile is Doped to Be Deciding Factor of Contest
Tigers Have More Veterans
Rice Will Try to Set New Record For K. U. in High Jump
With only a short work-out as a program for work today, the Jayhawkers are waiting to show their fight and ability against the Missouri Tigers in the annual duel meet which is to be held at Columbia Saturday. There have been no try-outs probably because Coach W. O. Hamilton believes his best men have been selected, and because there are so few men eligible aside from those already on the team. The team is to leave Friday afternoon for the camp of the Missourians.
MISSOURI HAS VETERAN STARS
With the memory of the unexpected victory of the Tigers in the indoor track meet last winter still fresh in mind, the K. U. track athletes are planning to blot out that defeat. There is little done on that defense, of all the teams since both schools lost some of their star runners since the indoor meet.
MISSUOI HAS VETERAN STARS
Shreve, a relay and star quarter mile man; Welly, a great hurdler and pole vault man; and Coffey, the half mile man who was running with Murphy, are all in the military service now. Missouri has lost Flint who ran such a strong race in the two mile in the Convention Hall meet, but the rest on their war-time team is in good trim. The Tigers have the advantage this season of having six of their track stars of last season back working in great shape.
Kansas in contrast has but two men back for the team, Murphy, a half miler, and Rice, a veteran high jumper. The rest of the material has had to come from freshman athletes of last year or green, material, and there have been few upperclassmen from which to pick.
Kansas track dopesters are figuring that th quarter mite will be a deciding factor in the meet. Rodkey, Lobaugh, and Russell are slated for this dash event, Russell to take Rodkey's place if he is saved as a fresh man for the broad jump. Rodkey may, however, be used in the quarter and broad both, so that Russell will be the fresh man for the relay. Lobaugh will run in the relay, along with Murphy, Russell, Rodkey, and possibly Davidson. Haddock will be the only entry in the 100-yard dash and 220-yard dash, according to present indications. He should give Scholtz a run for his money and possibly beat him.
MILE TO BE HARD RACE
Hobart seems to be the only possibility in the hurdles and his hard work this week may put him in good enough trim to beat out Sylvester in either the high or low hurdles. Murphy and Davidson seem to be the possibilities in the half, with Murphy almost certain of taking first in this race.
The mile should be a hard race with every chance that Deewell will beat Banks, the Tiger's best miler. Only Deewell will run for K. Gogleie and Hanna she will the Missouri in the 2-mile and Wagner in the 5-miles will have his hands full to win out in the mile, without coming back in the 2-mile run.
The relay looks like Mizzou. In the field events, Kansas is looking better. Rodky made 21 feet 7½ inches under difficulties at the Kansas Aggie meet last week. This distance at Missouri should take first, for Scholtz can sprint faster than he has broad feet. He made it in 20 feet 9 inches at Aggieville last week and looks good for a place at the Tiger meet.
RICE FEELS SURE OF HIGH JUMP
Howard is going fine in the pole vault with the aid of the warmer weather. He made 11 feet in practice the other night. He is the only K.U. man in the league to work in the disc, although Haddock is the strong Jay-hawker athlete in this event.
He has thrown this weight nearly 114 feet in practice recently and unless the Missouri discus man, Berry, springs a big surprise, this throw should get first. He is not doing the shot put, but Liggett has been working hard with this weight and may get second in the Missouri meet. There is also a possibility that Sterling will get into this event, since he
has been showing fairly well.
has been showing fairly well.
Rice is sure of first in the high eighth, and thus sets a new record for K. U., if the track is not wet. The present record is held by Richard Treweke, now in the service, who jumped 6 feet $1\frac{1}{2}$ inches in 1916. This will also be a new Missouri Valley conference record if the one by Treweke is broken. Rice has been doing good work this week and several times has approached the 6-foot mark.
K. U. Will Meet Tiger
Tennis Team May 18
Opening Match of Missouri Valley Conference Season to Be Played Here
The Kansas tennis team will meet the Missouri team here May 18, in the first tournament of the season. Candidates are working daily to into shape for the matches. The team has not been chosen and probably will not be until just before this tournament. Fratcher, Butcher, Matthews are the most likely candidates to work with Capt Kenneth Uhls.
The Missouri Valley tournament May 25 probably will be in Kansas City on the Rockhill Club courts. The tournament $^2$ was scheduled for Nebraska this year but it was refused due to the lack of material for a team.
It was then offered to Ames and Missouri and was refused by both. All the schools report little material for tennis teams in the valley this year. Missouri and Oklahoma probably will be represented in this tournament.

Engineers Parade And Hold Annual Open House Despite Fire In Fowler
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 10, 1918.
Service Flag Containing 500 Stars, Four in Gold, is Unfurled
Chancellor Chief Speaker
Visitors Shown Work of School
—Entertainment Closes
With Motion Pictures
Plans for six annual Engineer's Day which was held today were carried out as designed even though the burning of Fowler Shops necessitated the omission of some of the demonstrations.
The parade started from Marvin Hall at 11 o'clock, headed by a float carrying the band and drawn by the students. It proceeded from the Entrance, down the doorway past the Administration Building on down town.
The line of the march lead back to the Engineering Building, where, at 12 o'clock the school's service flag is raised. The Chancellor Strong gave the address.
CHANCELLOR DEDICATES FLAG
GIRLKING BEFORE YOU'S MAY 74
The flag contains more than 500 stars, four of which are gold ones. In the white center the number "500" is made with the stars. The flag will fly from a flag pole in front of Marvin Hall.
The Chancellor in his speech asked all engineers who had no classes this afternoon to assist in cleaning Fowler Shops. "The fire," said the Chancellor, "will not affect the plans for the new building." For the repairs have already been made and it is probable that the material has already been ordered.
K. U.'S FIRST CRITICAL PERIOD
"This is the first time," continued the Chancellor, "that the University has ever seen a great war. The first session was in 1866 after the close of the Civil War, and the only other war was the Spanish-American. The University has never passed through a real critical period and it was not a failure. It did not spend in such a crisis. The question, however, has passed away. It is the college and university men of this country who have responded.
"No department of the University has done more for the country at this time than the School of Engineering. The five hundred men represented in your service flag show a great per- menge of the school in active service.
PROVIDE CARS FOR VISITORS
PROVIDE CARS FOR VISITORS
"The great menace of Europe will be known for one thing that it will never hurt us be done again. The University will do all it can for the country and will stand for all that it is fine in the nation."
Cars were used this afternoon to carry visitors out to see the laboratories which were open all day to visitors. Some of the most important demonstrations of the open-house were to have been in Powder Shops.
FLOAT FOR BAND MEN
The members of the engineers' band carried in the float were: Ceil Hough, director; Guy Sackett, Thuck Neiswander, Clyde Farnsworth, Don Weidman, Steve Stevens, George Lutz, John Pepper, H. V. Smith, Carl Grey, Harold Cox, and Fed Lampton. The criers were R. R. Ryan, "Dutch" Ublraub, and George Nettles.
The program will end tonight with a picture show in Marvin Hall at 8:30 o'clock which will be open to the public.
Quill Club Initiates 14 Members Thursday
Nineteen new members were initiated into the American College Quill Club yesterday afternoon in Fraser Hall. The initiation was to have been held last January, but was indefinitely postponed on account of the inability of the official jeweler to supply the pins. Those who were initiated yesterday were: Margaret Mitchell, Eva Elliott, Michael Wardlaw, Marie Hostetter, Ethel Rush Randall, Lucile Nowlin, Katrina Baldwin, Hazel Ernst, Frances Hitchcock, Mary Roberta and Carey P. Butcher, C. A. Goss and James Lymne. Special initiation was held a short time ago for Howard Morgan, Rolly Brown and Herbert Laslett, who are now in the Government service.
Low Water Pressure Caused by Phone Delay
Emergency Pump Not Started For Thirty Minutes After Fire Was Discovered
The delay in getting a sufficient water pressure last night was caused by the failure of the Lawrence telephone exchange to put in a call to the power plant, so that the emergency engine would be started. "We are supposed to call the city exchange at once in case we hear of a fire on the hill before the news gets to town," said C. A. Griffith, day man at the plant. "When they are informed of a fire before we are it is up to them to let us know, and this they neglected to do last night, probably thinking we already knew. The result was we did not start the pumps until late."
G. W. Hazzard, night man at the power house, started the big pump immediately when the chief messon's fire, brought him the word.
Previous to this word the men in charge of the pumping station knew nothing of the fire and not until the fire had been burning for perhaps thirty minutes was the emergency fire pump started, and even then, a long time elapsed before sufficient pressure could be obtained.
The pump has a capacity of 750 gallons per minute under 150 pounds pressure, which is sufficient for three $1\frac{1}{4}$ inch smooth nozzle streams. There were, however, six streams playing on the fire, three belonging to the fire department and three from the hill, and the 150 pounds pressure was not sufficient. Were it possible to press pressure on the lines was weak, and the engine was at once speed up to 180 pounds, which gave a larger supply of water.
The city pumping station raised its pressure from 120 pounds to 150, and this helped the University pumps to carry the load. Water from Potter's Lake was used as well as from the city system. The lake pump began work comparatively early and kept up a consistent pressure.
The War Here and Over There
"We cannot fail; we must not fail; we shall not fail; but it is better to fight failing than willingly to submit to the yoke."—Samuel Gompers.
A drive of the Germans to try out the strength of the Allied line on the Flanders front southwest of Ypres found the line able to withstand the offensive. Although the Germans pushed the line back at some points, Field Marshal Haig reports that they have been regained. German losses were heavy, it is reported.
General Pershing has issued an order asking all American troops in France to write letters home on Mothers' Day.
A plan of the War Council of the American Red Cross provides for the give free of cost of $1,000 life insurance to Red Cross workers abroad, not enlisted in the army or navy. There will be several thousand of such workers by the end of the year.
The United States Steel Corporation will manufacture artillery and projectiles in great quantities, and the government will erect a plant for this purpose soon.
The Senate passed the House Bill Thursday providing strict restrictions on travel to and from the United States.
Vernon Kellogg will lecture at the University Monday, May 13, instead of Tuesday as was reported in Thursday's Kansas. The lecture will be given in Fraser Chapel at 8 o'clock. Mr. Kellogg is the guest of the local chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, and will attend initiation Monday night. No initiation banquet will be given this year on account of the war.

Fire Sweeps Two-Thirds Of Fowler Shops Just Before Government Might Use Them
Fire Will Not Prevent Use Of Fowler Shops For Military Training
Temporary Repairs to be Made
—Fowler May Become College Commons
Temporary roofing will be placed over the burned portion of Fowler Shops, said Chancellor Strong this morning, "following a conference of University authorities called to investigate the fire of last night.
It was pointed out today that the floor of the second story had held and prevented fire getting at the machinery, by far the greater part of which is located on the ground floor. This fire did not damaged in the least by water.
"These repairs will be made as soon as possible," said the Chancellor, "and the fire will not interfere with instruction of drafted men, should the Government decide to send them here June 1, as has been planned."
When new shops are erected, says the Chancellor, an effort will be made to have them put nearer the Engineering Building. If this plan is carried out, Fowler Shops will be converted into a University Commons and club room. The building will then be renamed, and may be called the Lawrence Hotel, with the name of a Lawrence hotel famous in the troubled times before the Civil War. The Free State Hotel was once burned by raiders.
Declines To Give Cause
William Reinisch, Chief, Offered No Theory As to Origin of Fire
"We received the alarm at 6:45 last night and figure about five minutes to the Hill," said Chief Reishim of the city fire department this morning. "So we must have been there not much later than 6:50."
"No time was lost in getting several streams on the building but we were handicapped because of the lack of water pressure."
Chief Reinish said, "I notified the city's power plant and the telephone girl who was supposed to notify the University's plant failed to do so. When I found this out I sent word over to the plant myself, but before an effective water pressure came, valuable time had been lost."
When asked his theory as to the origin of the fire the Chief replied, "That's something I don't know anything about. It must have started in the locker room in some way or an and spread rapidly to the ceiling."
“It's not much good,” was the few words that Reinisch summed up his opinion of the University's fire equipment.
The alarm for the fire in Fowler Shops last night was turned in by Miss Cora M. Downs, instructor in the department of bacteriology, who lives in the Twenhofel cottage just below the hill on the south.
Miss Cora M. Downs Says She Saw Smoke Coming Out of Fowler
She Turned In Fire Alarm
of Fowler
Miss Dows was sitting in the window and as she looked up toward the University she noticed smoke coming out of the southeast corner of Fowler Shops. She immediately called the fire department and asked them to stop building any building on the campus. When they replied they had not said she said the Shops seemed to be on fire and they had better come up and investigate.
Miss Downs came immediately to the burning building, arriving, just as the fire chief and the chemical engine reached the spot. By this time the fire had stopped and the fire fore long it burst through the roof. A crowd soon gathered.

"Comus" Electrician Discovered the Fire
Earl Martin, an electrician in charge of the lighting effects of the Dramatic Club's play "Comus" first discovered the fire in Fowler Shops last night.
"I was going down to the repair shop just south of Fowler for some material about 6:35 o'clock," said Martin this morning. "In passing Fowler Shops I smelled something burning. I looked inside and saw that a fire had broken in the locker room and had gained such headway that one man could not handle it. I yelled and whistled, but there was no one in hearing distance. Even the repair shops were deserted.
"ruminally I attracted the attention of a taxi-driver who took me to "Brick's." There I turned in an alarm he had on to the Hill about ten minutes later."
The taxi-driver and Martin got out a hose and were fighting the blaze when the fire department arrived, about five minutes later.
"Apparently the blaze had been started twenty minutes or half an hour before I discovered it," said Martin, "and when we returned after sending in the alarm the place was so full of smoke we could hardly get into the rooms."
Machines Saved and Temporary Measures Taken for Receiving the Draft
Draft Plans Will Continue
"Practically all of the machines can be saved," said L. A. Hartley, superintendent of the Fowler Shops, "and the draft men can come on schedule." A volunteer squad of almost a hundred engineering students was at work early this morning clearing away the debris. It is likely that a temporary roof can be erected and that the machines can be put in order for work by the time the drafted men arrive.
"Some of my plans for the drafted men were lost in the fire," said Mr. Hartley, "but they can be replaced."
Fire Flickers
The fire made a very unpleasant first number on the evening program. Heroes were made in an hour. Fair co-eds thrilled with pride when a favorite young gallant appeared through the smoke and fire. Some of the most notorious slackers dared only to go close enough to get their hands smeared with the soot. They then delighted in coming back to tell their friends how they had saved several bolts and screws.
One spectator observed that the vines growing up the wall of the building would not need to be watered again this summer.
The average velocity of the wind between 6:00 and 9:00 o'clock last night, as registered by the anemometer, was 35.8 miles per hour. The highest velocity during that time was 37.5 miles which was recorded during the three minutes from 6:28 to 6:31.
The spirit and efforts of the students to assist in every way that they could to fight the fire centered about "Dutch" Uhrlaub. For nearly two hours wet to his hide and in shirt sleeves, "Dutch" played the small hose of Fowler Shops on the fire. Several times he was given a thorough drenching by the stream of the city fire department, but it did not seem to effect "Dutch" in the least.
Forty-mile Gale Lashes Flames from Uncertain Starting Place Through Upper Story,Loft and Tower
Last night's fire got a good start while the alarm was being turned in. Earl Martin, the electrician, who discovered the blaze, hailed a colored taxi-driver and directed him to go to a telephone and turn in the alarm, as he wished to stay and fight the fire. "Oh, you call," said the negro, so Martin climbed into the taxi and drove to a near-by restaurant. There he asked the cashier to report the fire. "Oh, you call," said she. He called, and the fire burned merriely on.
Cause Uncertain and Undetermined;Armed Guards Posted
Reclamation of Machinery and Immediate Temporary Repairs On Building Prevent Delay to Nation Desnite $34,000 Loss
This morning when cooled ruins made possible access for clearing of debris, salvage, and investigation, the burned area was found practically confined above the ground floor. Damage by water to the lower floor and machinery there will be slight work needed on the floor of one hundred loyal engineers who worked both during the fire and afterward.
Dean Shaad of the School of Engineering, and his associates expect a temporary roofing over the still intact stone walls of Fowler Shops within a few days, and will have the interior of the building with all machinery ready for Uncle Sam's business the minute he asks for it. The engineers themselves are standing right by their school with long hours of hard, swift labor to redeem and repair for the work that must be done there.
But damage to lumber and other materials stored in the loft, to patterns, and to what machines were on the second floor, as well as to office equipment and other fixtures will amount to a minimum of $18,000. This with about $16,000 loss on the building itself brings total to a minimum of $34,400. Larger figures were quoted last night, but were given as plausible during the course of destruction and before adequate investigation and inventory could be made.
One of the places in which the fire might have started was stated in the report of a preliminary investigation to be in or above the locker room, second story, southeast corner, but this is not settled. A theory of spontaneous combustion caused from the day's heat action on iron filings, oil mops, waste, or shavings, was advanced but not substantiated.
Guard duty ceased this forenoon but will be resumed again tonight at least for Fowler Shops. Superintendent L. A. Hartley of the Shops says he will have the guards there.
As the fire was finally drowned out about 10 o'clock, soldiers from the Lawrence Home Guards were posted about not only Fowler Shops but about several other University Buildings. Their bayonets were fixed and ball cartridges were in the chamber of their rifles.
Place of origin and actual cause uncertain and as yet undetermined, fire impelled by a 40-mile-an-hour gale swept the eastern two-thirds of the upper story, loft, roof, and tower of Fowler Shops early last evening with a loss of approximately $34,000. The fire was discovered by Assistant Electrician Earl Martin at 6:45 o'clock and was not under control of the combined forces of city and University fire fighters until 8 o'clock.
The building and the machinery within it were being considered by the Federal Government for use in a special training work as yet unannounced, but, if established, scheduled to begin about June 1.
Permanent repairs will be undertaken later, the time as yet not fixed. The holding of the second floor is considered little short of miraculous. Great quantities of water were continuously poured onto it, and the tile roofing formed a hard surface over the wood. This prevented the more severe damage that threatened the valuable machinery downstairs; the walls are apparently ready to be built into again, according to estimates of the engineering faculty.
ARMED GUARDS POSTED
SLOW ALARM FOR BIGGEST FIRE
As soon as Earl Martin discovered the fire, the largest known at the University, he telephoned Central of the telephone company. Central mildly suggested to one of the firemen at the station that there was a fire "by" Fowler Shops and casually inquired if an alarm should be turned in. He replied to talk with the chief. By the time the chief was on the wire, Central had received notification from Miss Cora M. Downs who lives just south of the Shops, and now said the fire was "in" Fowler Shops. Chief Bill Reimis didn't wait to answer whether an alarm should be turned in, but started in lead of his racing apparatus to set a pace that never was seen before on the streets of Lawrensburg.
rence. He got on the scene of action as fast as possible and could prop him. WATER, ORING.
WATER DRIBBLE ALONG
The chief sized up the situation and placed his streams advantageously for a good fight to confine the fire in the east eagle that second story of the burning building. Hit the so-called streams that meandered through the nozzles of flabby hose pipes, made him jump to do something the telephone Central should have flone automatically before the firemen arrived at the fire. He had to notify the pumping stations to jam on the pressure and send water up on Mount Oread. It was twenty minutes after operations began before water volume was sufficient.
Good use was made of all water as soon as it came. Strategic placement was made for stream effectiveness to save the west end of the building and only occasionally were pipe men deceived to send showers into flames. Undergraduates manned the University's lines, helping the regular employees, and engineers worked at saving property throughout the fire. The isolation and tile roof of Fowler Shops, however, was all that prevented rapid spread of the fire by the wind to other buildings.
There is no regular insurance carried on Fowler Shops in an insurance company, but the State of Kansas has provision for all of its property on a large scale which amounts in the long run to the same thing as payment of insurance premiums would. The state was owned by A. Fowler as a memorial to his father, and was completed in 1899 at a cost of $21,000. The School of Engineering used the plant primarily for instruction in shop work.
NO INSURANCE
All this week engineering students have been cleaning out the building in preparation for holding open-house today. All waste material, extra lumber, and trash had been entirely cleaned out of the building.
Forges are located in the end of the building destroyed, but it is stated positively none of these forges were used yesterday, because forge practice was to have been one of the features of the entertainment today. No laboratory experiments requiring heat were conducted yesterday, since the students of the department were busy with other duties.
Spectators enjoyed to some extent the heat while the cold north wind blew at their backs. Meanwhile, they were ready with advice, which was, in the main, that the fire should be extinguished as soon as possible.

K. U. READY TO GO AHEAD
Despite the destruction by fire of half of Fowler Shops, the University will go right ahead with its work as though nothing had happened. The Engineers who are the ones most vitally affected by the loss came up the hill this morning, over a hundred strong, and pitched in to help in caring for the machinery and cleaning away the debris. Every University employee who can be spared is also on the job helping with the work.
Authorities of the University and the School of Engineering met at the Chancellor's office this morning and in less than an hour had decided to put a temporary roof over the structure at once. The roof will be put on in a short time and the University will be ready to assist the Government in training soldiers, or in any other war work that may be required at any time it is called upon. Thus the University is proving that it is ready to do its part, and the state should be as prompt in permanently rebuilding, as the University has been in temporarily repairing, the loss.
GUARDS SHOULD BE POSTED
In spite of the fact that University authorities do not believe guards for the University buildings are necessary, it is well just now to give the matter serious consideration. All rumors of German complicity in yesterday's fire should be discounted, of course, until there is evidence that such was the case, but it must not be forgotten that there are German agents in this country; that those agents here already committed crimes that helped to delay the country's war preparations, and that with the University doing war work and preparing to train men here for war service, it is not at all impossible that those agents should consider buildings where such work is being done and apparatus to be used in training soldiers as legitimate prey for their crimes.
With this in mind it would be only sensible for the University to post guards around those buildings where government war work is now being done, as well as around those where instruction might be given the coming summer to national army men.
SHOPS MUST BE REBUILT
Because of the utility of the shops by the Government during the war they should be permanently rebuilt as soon as it is actually possible to do it. How soon that can be done is not certain, as it is likely that it will be necessary to wait till the state legislature meets in order to get an appropriation for that purpose. However, the 'legislature', under the conditions, should not delay an appropriation a single minute after it convenes, since the shops will have to be rebuilt anyway, and the sooner it is done the more service the state will be able to render to the Government during the war.
This is not the first time fire has broken out in the building. This should point out the necessity of making the building as nearly fireproof as is possible when it is rebuilt. All the framework of the old roof was of wood and burned readily as soon as the flames reached it. This framework should be replaced by steel girders that, in case of another fire, would not permit a roof to fall in as the old roof did. Fireproof floors that will not permit fire to spread from one story to another should be put in throughout the building. Fireproofing now will be cheaper than rebuilding after another such fire as that of last night.
With Fowler Shops, their peculiar part of the University, half destroyed by fire on the eve of their annual holiday—a holiday the more impressive this year because they were to honor those from their school who have gone to serve the nation in war, the Engineers came up the hill this morning in overalls and jackets, and helped polish machinery and shovel debris till the hour set for their celebration, and then in their working clothes, went out and put on their parade and observed their ceremonies just as they had planned them before the fire. The University admires the Engineers for their work today. They have shown their caliber.
DID THE WOMEN REALIZE?
THEIR CALIBER
Perhaps they didn't realize those women who disturbed a food conservation lecture—that those lectures are being given by the government. Perhaps they didn't realize that similar lectures are being given in every other college and university in America. Perhaps they didn't realize that those other colleges and universities report their women taking the work loyalty and enthusiastically. Perhaps they didn't realize that the women in the department of home economics who are giving the lectures are making a greater sacrifice than they are.
Perhaps they didn't realize that the University would have been branded as unpatriotic if it had refused to install the lectures. Perhaps they didn't realize that action such as theirs would give critics a chance to brand the University as unpatricious. Perhaps they didn't realize that the war is to be won by women in kitchen and pantry and dining room as well as by men on the battle field. Perhaps they didn't realize.
WHY NOT WRITE TODAY?
A Columbia boy who has been in the front line trenches writes that he was glad to get out of the trenches and back to headquarters for he knew some letters would be waiting him there. But supposing no letters had been there?
If you know someone who is "Somewhere in France" write him today; you would like to hear from him but letters do not mean as much to you as they do to him. He needs them.
"The man who gets a letter from home is a fifty per cent better fighter that day than the man who does not. The great thing to do is to write-write-write. Always write cheerfully, even if you do not feel cheerful" says after Lawrence of the British Army, who is now in the United States.
Everyone is disappointed when an expected letter fails to come; how much more so one must be when he is forced to fight for his home and country.
Why not write today?—Evening

CONTEMPORARY OPINION
EACHERS AND
In recent years it has come to be a common feeling that all teachers are underpaid and overworked. The subject of teachers' salaries is discussed, deplored, some one remarks that something ought to be done about it, and then it is dismised from the conversation.
TEACHERS AND PATRIOTISM
The other day a member of this underpaid profession remarked on the fact that many teachers are leaving their present positions to take the civil-service examination and enter some form of Government work which is made attractive both by the feeling of patriotism which goes with the duties and by the more attractive monetary side.
While great possibilities are opening up every day for those who seek to do Government work, one can but deplore the fact that this sort of service should carry with it a feeling of patriotism which is absent from the profession of teaching. Especial emphasis has been laid by the country's leaders on the need of keeping up to the mark in educational activities, whether of public school, high school or university, during the war.
Educational training must continue regardless (or rather regardful) of the carriage on the other side of the water. The very war situation makes it all the more necessary. While perhaps not so spectacular in results or likely to win the applause of the teacher, it is also the country by the teacher should be as ready an outlet for patriotism as any service one could mention.
Heroic deeds and unusual acts a patriotism will always stand out in connection with the war. But quite as proficient in bringing about the final results to be sought for, will be those who have served the forces of the country toward their goal of universal service—Ohio State Lantern.
NO RETALIATION
The State Department has begun an inquiry to confirm the press reports of ill-treatment of American prisoners of war in Germany. If the reports are true, retaliatory measures will be considered.
Heretofore German prisoners of war have been treated with marked liberality by the United States. For instance, a German prisoner of captain rank receives the same pay as an American officer of the same rank. As the American officer is the highest paid in any army in the world, the German receives it. In the German army, such generosity on the part of the United States has met with adverse criticism from some quarters.
It would seem that such treatment ers rather on the side of virtue, is rather too much of a good thing, but retaliation for German cruelties is more to be avoided. For three reasons the latter system should have careful consideration before being taken up. It is hard to ascertain the truth concerning the alleged atrocious care American prisoners receive, because the Germans will permit prison inspection only of those camps that it selects, and there is little fault to be found with them. Retaliatory measures would give truth to the tales the German officers tell their men of the treatment of prisoners by Americans.
Former Mayor Mitchel, of New York, was talking at a dinner about office-seekers.
But greatest is the third reason. America is fighting a war for ideals. Germany and German cruelties are on the other side of the great divide.—Evening Missourian.
"Yes, sir, though the dead man hadn't been buried, yet this office-secker came to me and said, breathlessly:
"Mr. Mayor, do you see any objec tion to me being put in, poor Tom Smith?"
MENTAL LAPSES
"A good man had just died," he said, "and with unseasonable waste an officer killed."
"Who, no,' said I. 'Why, no, I see no objection, if the undertaker does v't." - Washington Star.
It was kit inspection in a certain military camp on the Yorkshire coast, and the men in one hut stood to attention when the officer came in. He stopped opposite one fellow, and asked him what he did in civil life.
The man replied: "A carter, sir." To the next man he put the same question; he had been a weaver. The officer then stopped, facing a miserable-looking chap.

John Milton's Masque "Comus" Delights Crowd In Out-of-Door Theater
Numerous Requests Made That Dramatic Club Repeat Performance
Regardless of the strong cold north wind sweeping down on the amphitheater on the campus, about 400 persons saw the performance of John Milton's "Comus" last night. Although the audience was reduced by the weather the performance itself was no marred.
The stage was set off by screens of branches and had the effect of a natural forest setting. The use of different colored lights with the spotlight gave an unusual and pleasing lighting effect upon the green background. The costumes of all the characters in the cast and the dancers were elaborate and fitting for the play.
Each member of the speaking cast is to be commended for the good voice work in making themselves heard against the strong wind. Each actor had the characterization of his part worked out well and the whole play had the touch of a finished production. The members of the cast were Florence Kemp, Robert Searle, Stewart, Burney Miller, Helen Clark, Karl Brown, and Raymond Darby.
The costumed dances were especially effective and worked in well with the acting parts. The nymph dance with the flowing costumes was well received by the audience. Dorothy Cole was in charge of the dances. There have been a number of requests from both the faculty and the students but none of them have been met by Prof. Arthur MacMurray of the department of public speaking said this morning that no plans had been made to give the play again.

Boarders Eat Food In Accord With Hooverism
Corn Bread and Substitutes
Used; Scraps and Left-overs -
*
Recent articles were printed in Lawrence, Topeka and Kansas City papers concerning the waste of food by fraternities and sororites at K. U. Interviews with house mothers and stewardess of the various organizations show that food is saved by fraternities, sororites, and boarding clubs.
A majority of the sororites never use white bread, and sororities and fraternities who still use the white bread, have it but once or twice a week. Every scrap of bread is used in bread puddings and dressings, the house mothers report. At one sorority they have made the rule that any woman wanting a "piece" be served to her sisters, but must use the scraps of toast or muffins left from meals. This same sorority substitutes eggs and macaroni is a great deal for meat, and corn bread is served three times a week.
Practically all fraternities have meat for lunch on an average of once or twice a week. All that one feats are worthless. We boil potato skins and coffee grounds.
Another house mother said that while they have plenty to eat, every scrap is saved and utilized. Her belief is that most waste comes from poor management in buying, and also poor cooking.

Kansas Runners Left To Complete At Columbia Against Tiger Athletes
Fourteen Track Men Will Take Part in Dual Meet Sat
urday
Fourteen men on the Jayhawker track team left this morning for the Tiger Camp at Columbia to enter the dual meet Saturday. The team: Lobaugh, Haddock, Tinker, Queen Murphy,灌阳县 David, Qiwei Huang, Ida Edward, Hobart, Lliggett, and "Doc" Sterling. All the athletes are in good shape.
Russell or Rodkey and Lobaugh will run the game. Haddock and Lobaugh will handle the dashes, although it is doubtful if Lobaugh will be used for any other eyes in the game. Coach W. O. Hamilton plans to use him in the quarter and relay. In the half-mile Murphy and Davidson are entries.
Deewall will run the mile alone, while Gleovie and Hanna will enter the two-mile run. Rice and Howard will be in the high jump, while Rodkey and Howard will be in the broad jump. Hawkeye will be in the pole vault. The relay will be by Davidson, Murphy, Russell, Lobaugh or Rodkey.
Liggett will compete in the discus and shotput, while Haddock is entered in the discus alone. Hobart will be in both hurdle events.
Star Commercial Editor Talked on Stock Markets
H. L. Nicolet Explains Handling of Commercial News to Journalism Students
Stock markets and their various phases was the theme of the talk given before the journalism classes this morning by H. L. Nicolet, commercial editor of the Kansas City Star. Mr. Nicolet, who has had a great deal of experience in stock market reporting, said there was no reason why a woman reporter could not handle the market news as well as a man. This department is difficult for any one who is not familiar with the market terms and phrases. The important factor is accuracy and regularity, because much depends on the quotations published in the papers.
Mr. Nicolet explained the handling of market news through the telegraph, the exchange, the board of trade, and also explained how live stock and grains are inspected and the workings of government control of the wheat market.
Mr. Nicolet's son, Charles, is now attending the University. Two other sons, Benjamin and Arthur, have attened K. U., and both are in the service of the United States army. Benjamin is now stationed in Paris where he is captain of a chemical unit. He is also stationed with gas bombs. Hew as graduated in 1910. Arthur is in the 164th Depot Brigade stationed at Camp Funston.
Card Shows Standards
For 128 Different Colors
Number Take Place of More or Less Indefinite Trade Names
In a chart recently received by Prof. F. B. Dains from the Textile Color Card Association of the United States there are 128 standard colors which are to serve as the basis for all shades and tints of color dyes to be used from now on.
Every color has a number consisting of four figures which designate the following: first, second and third figures indicate the relative proportion of the component parts of a color. The fourth figure tells the strength of the color designated by the first three figures. For stance colors, the color or color of "maple" and the last 3 indicates that the strength or the color is light. In 4135, the color mixture is the same, only the 5 indicates it is medium. This last color is called "honey," a little darker than "maple."
The chart is systematized so the standard number will always signify the right color and thus decrease the confusion in ordering shades and tints merely by name.
A paper cutter lent to the engineers in Fowler Shops this week by the journalism press got wet in the fire last night in that building. It may have received more than a wetting.
Capper $50 Scholarship

Gov. Arthur Capper has again favored the School of Fine Arts, at the University of Kansas, by granting a scholarship in the sum of $50 for the benefit of some talented Freshman student. This is the third year that Governor Capper has granted this scholarship. The first year, it was held by Leta Ellison, of Lawrence, Kansas. The second year, by Charles Kolacry, of Goodland, Kansas. For the third year, the scholarship will be granted by faculty action, in September.
Tigers Outhit Kansas And Win Second Game With Goodwin Pitching
Missouri Shoves Kansas Into "Cellar" by Taking Rub Game-of Series
The Jayhawkers lost the second game of their three-game series with the Missouri Tigers at Columbia yesterday by a 6 to 2 score, by outstitting the Kansans two to one and giving Beck good support in the field. Kansas scored in the fourth, but M. U. came back in the fifth and coined a pair of runs. The Tigers annexed a run in sixth and seventh innings and ran a couple across again in the eighth. Kansas made another run in the seventh.
John Bunn, the K. U. backstop, was the Kansas star with two hits in four trips to the plate. Beek of Missouri whiffed eleven K. U. men, being as effective as Urie the day before. Goodwin, who has been acting as relief man in the practice games, pitched a steady game but the heavy-hitting Tigers were too much for his offers and they chalked up 13 hits while Kansas secured six. Both teams contributed a trio of misplays.
By winning yesterday's game Missouri has the rub game of the series and is well lodged in first place in the Missouri Valley standing with a percentage of 800. Ames is second with 400 and Kansas is in the cellar with 250. The Kansas team cannot pass Ames by winning today's game but can tie with the Cyclones. The Tigers look good for first place in the Valley this year with two victories over Kansas and Ames and should have little trouble holding the position which she now has.

Cards for The Game Are Stacked in Favor of All Concerned
Shuffle The Kicks to be Dance of Many Chances
In the deck which is to be used for the game of "Shuffle The Kicks" Saturday night the cards are stacked. They are stacked so that anyone who puts a dollar in the pot is bound to draw at least one good card and sometimes more than one, because there are many hidden away all through the deck.
There is the chance of the last big dance of the year. The One Man can have one more date with the One Girl. There is the chance for the K. U. men at Leavenworth or Funston to attend and a attendu'r Dance, to see all the old friends and to know that they have not forgotten and are back of them in everything that they do.
There is the chance for the girls to have at last the kind of a dance program they have always wanted; for it will be quite the thing for the girl to trade her own dances if she so wishes.
Then of course there will be one more chance to dance to Haley's music, but best of all is the opportunity to attend another W. A. A. dance, because those who know them of old are sure that this entertainment will be up to standard.

Newspaper Declared Community Enterprise By Osawatomie Editor
NUMBER 148.
Policies Are Political and Patriotic Says Keith Clevenger, Law '09
Proper Pay Is Advocated
Editor of Country Weekly Advised to Spend Ample Time In Careful Study
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 13, 1918.
"The newspaper is no man't private property," said Keith Clevenger, editor of the Osawatome Graphic in informal talks to the students in journalism classes this morning. "It is a community enterprise as far as news is concerned. It is the business of the newspaper to promote every enterprise that will benefit the community.
Nothing confesses the honesty of a newspaper more than printing an apology of its mistakes. Newspaper problems today are financial and patriotic and policies are political and patriotic.
"I am working sixteen to seventeen hours a day because we have had to double up on account of war conditions." continued Mr. Clevenger.
In regard to the publishing of all Red Cross, Liberty Loan and similar war articles, and advertisements that are sent out, Mr. Clevenger believes all space should be given to such material that can be spared from the regular news, but he also believes the newspaper man is entitled to be paid as much of the revenue as the butcher or grocer should be paid who furnishes food for Red Cross lunches. Both are visible means of support.
COMMUNITY INTEREST ADVANCED
Mr. Cleveger told how much of his Sunday afternoons are spent traveling around the country visiting farmers and getting them interested in schemes for improvement in Osawatomi and the roads near there. One scheme for the improvement of roads he secured by getting the farmers to build a road of a grittit farm in the town. When the farmers built the elevator, the ones who had fought it hardest then saw the need for good roads from their farms to the elevator.
"The public has an erroneous notion," said Mr. Cleverenger, "that the home paper is a kind of pseudo-charity and the public must support it. That is all wrong. I don't take any advertising on that basis and I've surprised several men who had that notion by refusing their business.
"The editor of a weekly paper should do at least twelve hours of good heavy reading a week. The Graphic doesn't take up any movement that is not clear in its apparent details without first studying it and reading carefully some authority on the subject.
PAPERS ENTITLED TO PAY
"Some day I believe there may be a municipal or a state fund that will reimburse newspaper for the many forms of public money they carry on and lose money by carrying on. The spirit of the public toward this unselfish aspect of the newspaper business is: 'Well, what'd you go into the newspaper business for if you didn't expect to boost—better get out of it if you don't want to boost.'"
Mr. Clevenger was graduated from the School of Law at the University in 1909, but he says he never would have entered the School of Law if the department of journalism had been here when he was in school. He has been on the Osawatime graphic since 1911, and has been in charge of the paper the last three years.
First Round of Women's Tennis Tourney Starts
The annual women's tennis tournament will begin this afternoon, when the first round of the sophomore games will be played. Twenty-five women are entered in the tournament.
Single and double events are scheduled. Iris Russell and Cyra Sweet, sophomores, are expected to show up well in the doubles. Jeannette Parkinson, junior, and Margaret Hodder, are doing good work in the singles.
If good weather continues the tour nament will be completed this week The semi-finals will be played Friday, and the finals probably will come Saturday morning.
Bond Premiums to Go Into Thrift Stamps
Interest is coming due regularly on the first and second issues of Liberty Bonds, and a professor on the Hill has diverted all his premium gains right back to Uncle Sam in the form of thrift stamps.
The bonds were bought back East and left there in mother's custody. She was of the opinion that the sums accruing were too small to take out and spend or put into other bonds. Then she got the idea, bought the bond and I am confident to the preferential son in Kansas. He agreed it was all right. He admits he had forgotten that the things bore interest anyhow.
Architectural Engineers Will Celebrate Tuesday
Dean Shaad and Professor Goldsmith Are Among Principal Speakers
Chancellor Strong, Dean George Shaad, and Prof. Goodwin Goldsmith are among the principal speakers that will address the Architectural Engineering Society at its annual dinner at the Midway Cafe, Tuesday night, May 14, it was announced today.
The dinner, which will consist of a war menu will be served promptly at 7 o'clock, followed immediately by speeches and toasts. Besides, the above speakers second student members will be called upon to give impromptu talks.
Prof. and Mrs. F. H. Sibley, Mrs.
Goodwin Goldsmith, and Professors
F. L. Brown and H. A. Rice are to
be guests.
Owing to the fact that the banquet s to be held on a week night it will be impossible for any of the former members now in service, to be present.
The War Here and Over There
United States troops will not be used in the west front trenches where the Germans may start an offensive soon, until they become a complete and powerful force, according to the war committee of the British cabinet. The present line is confident of its ability to oppose a dice.
British ship raided Ostend, Belgium, Friday, sinking an old cruiser, Vindictive, in the harbor and thus seriously impeded the operation of German submarines from this base.
Losses of allied and neutral ships in April were about one-half the number sunk in April of last year. German submarine attacks are more costly now because torpedoes are used, while gun fire was the destructive agent before merchant ships were adequately armed.
Subscriptions to the Liberty Loan in Shanghai, China, amounted to $606,950, in Mexico City to about $350,000.
Evaporation for May Starts Unusually High
Record Shows Moisture-conserv ing Tillage Should be Adopted Where Possible
Water evaporation the first ten days of May was 2-1.2 times greater than the corresponding period last year, says Prof. C. A. Shull of the University of Kansas, who has charge of the government's evaporation experiment station at the University. The station is now beginning its second year of the study of evaporation and moisture conditions. Through these statistics gathered from many stations for a number of years the government hopes to work out a method of forecasting dry periods. May 9 evaporation from open water surfaces was .550 of an inch. The University station reports, an unusually high loss since on the driest day of last year, July 31, evaporation was only .709 of an inch.
This high evaporation in May indicates that moisture-conserving tillage should be adopted where possible, as such tillage means cleaner fields and better crops even if dry weather does not develop, said Mr. Shull.
"Resolved. By the senate, (the house of representatives concurring), that it being a duty peculiarly incumbent in a time of war humbly and devoutly to acknowledge our dependence on Almighty God and implore His aid and protection, the president of the United States be, and he is hereby respectfully requested to recommend a day of public humiliation, prayer and fasting, to be observed by the people of the United States with religious solemnity and the offering of fervent supplications to Almighty God for the safety and welfare of our cause.

MEMORIAL DAY PROCLAMATION
"Whereas, The congress of the United States, on the second day of April, last, passed the following resolution:
"Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, president of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Thursday, the thirteenth day of May, a day already freighted with sacred and stimulating memories, a day of public humiliation, prayer and fasting, and do exhort my fellow citizens of all faiths and creeds to assemble on that day in their several places of worship and there, as well as in their homes, to pray Almighty God that He may forgive our sins and shortcomings as a people and purify our hearts to see and love the truth; to accept and defend all things that are just and right, and to purpose only whose righteous acts and judgments which are in conformity with His will; behesechng Him that He will give victory to our armies as they fight for freedom; wisdom, to those who take counsel on our behalf in these days of dark struggle and perplexity, and steadfastness to our people to make sacrifice to the utmost in support of what is just and true, bringing us at last the peace in which men's hearts can be at rest because it is founded upon mercy, justice and good will.
"Whereas, It has always been the reverent habit of the people of the United States to turn in humble appeal to Almighty God for His guidance in the affairs of their common life;

Advance of Germans Proves Big Handicap In Pronouncing Names
French Names Are Not What They Seem—Galloo Explains
For the English speaking tongue the most serious result of the Hun drive has been the changing of the line just enough in spots to bring more strange sounding French names to America to be pronounced at Villers-Bretonneux, near which the Huns the other day attacked the American forces in the first serious engagement of American troops on a front facing a major German drive, is one of the troublesome names newly widespread in Europe. It is also Vilers-Bretunghu, says Prof. Eugenie Gallo, head of the department of French at the University, and a native of Paris.
It often is impossible to represent the exact French pronunciation in writing in English, said Miss Gallo, Ypres, for instance, is pronounced "eep" by William Allen White, Henry Allen and other traveled Americans. That is an excellent rendition of the French "eep". If a letter if a buried "r" were attached to the end of it—eep r-r-r. The Yser, where the Huns recently attacked the Belgians, is "eezair." Other now familiar names are pronounced:
Antmens—Amree ahm.

Argentine High School won the fourth annual typewriting contest held by the high schools of Kansas at Lawrence May 10 by a score of 18. Governor Capper presented a large silver loving cup to the winners. Arsenal won third place. World third place. Argentine has won three of the four annual contests.
LATE FIRE NEWS
Plain Tales From The Hill
The contest was held by the State Association of Typists and Typewriting Teachers, of which G. C. Brink of Argentine High School is president.
There was a fire on the University campus Thursday night which partially destroyed Fowler Shops. The Lawrence fire department was called. University students and K. U. employees fought the fire bravely and steadily for nearly three hours. The Lawrence fire chief did not think much of the University fire fighting equipment, he said.
Two students were fooling around in front of Fowler Shops Friday and began boxing. The one had on glasses and another other judge told him to take them off.
The fresh and the senior co-ed were descending from the heights of the top floor of Fraser Hall at noon when an alliaceous odor was wafted to their nostrils.
"Say," said a young man who was watching the performance, "Isn't it rather uncustomary to serve the punch after the glasses have been removed?"
"Gee, I smell cooking," said the senior.
"Huh, that ain't cookin' you smell," replied the frush. "Them's onions."

Administration Board Approves Plan to Put Plank Roof on Fowler
Chancellor Hopes Permanent Repairs Will be of Fireproof Character
Oily Waste Not Blamed Now
Building Given Thorough Cleaning Day of Fire, Preparing For Visitors
At a meeting of the State Board of Administration and the governor here Saturday it was decided to put a temporary roof on Fowler Shops and clean it up to be ready for training the army men who are expected to be sent here early in June. The building will be repaired soon enough that it may be used by the government, as soon as had been planned originally.
Chancellor Frank Strong hopes that when the building is permanently rebuilt it will be made fire-proof and will not be used as shops again, but be turned into a University Commons called the Free State Hotel. In this case the new shop building will be located in the vicinity of the Engineering building. But no definite action can be taken on this plan until the next meeting of the legislature.
ENGINEERS' WORK COMMENDED
ENGINEERS' WORK COMMENDED
"The engineers did some good work which is highly appreciated by the School of engineering in helping clear away the ash after the fire and in assisting with the machinery."
said Prof. F. H. Sibley. "They helped us when we were in the pinch and enabled us to save a lot of the machinery and put it till help could be secured."
"Some of the men worked as long as three days for no compensation. Most of the students helped all of them in "engineers' Day," said Professor Silbey.
ALL OILY WASTE REMOVED
"The chances of this fire starting from oily waste are very, very remote," said L. A. Hartley, superintendent of Fowler Shops. Mr. Hartley said that combustion from oily waste is a means by which fire sometimes starts, but that in this case there was no possibility of this being the cause.
Thursday afternoon a thorough clean-up of the building had been made by the janitor under Mr. Hartley's supervision. This clean-up and inspection was much more thorough than usual because of the preparations for Engineers' Day, the next day. All oil was wiped from the machinery, pans of oil were cleaned out and there was no possibility, according to Mr. Hartley of the fire starting from this source.
"By this I do not mean to say that the fire was of 'incendiary origin,' added Mr. Mason.
He declined to say whether or not he had any theory of his own in regard to the starting of the fire or to any other possibilities of the source.
The second floor of the building was left in good condition except for a few holes made by the firemen's axes and the debris which was piled on it. This is being rapidly removed.
Red Cross Auction

MONDAY, MAY 13, 1918.
The war; nothing else matters.
"UNSER GOTT"
The President's Memorial Day proclamation after a year of our war is significant when compared with the utterances of the leader of the nations against which the United States and its allies are fighting. The Kaiser addresses the Almighty as the peculiar god of the Germans and asks him to be on the side of Germany and German arms.
The President in his proclamation instead of asking God to be on our side asks his people to pray that they may be on the side of God, and exherts his fellow citizens to "assemble in their places of worship and there, as well as in their homes, to pray Almighty God that He may forgive our sins and shortcomings as a people and to purify our hearts to se and love the truth; to accept and defend all things that are just and right, and to purpose only the righteous acts and judgments which are in conformity with His will."
SIMPLICITY AND ECONOMY
No share of the national annual six million dollar waste in graduation frills and furbelows will be expended by the students graduating from the University of Kansas. They always have been economical, but this year of years is going to be the most radically simple and economical.
While merchants advertise regularbridal trossseau for high schoolgraduates, suits for the youngmen at the academy, commencement frocks and flowers for the little ladywho is finishing her boarding schoolcareer, the seniors of K. U. aregetting measured for caps and gownsthat will dignify them despite whatthey wear underneath. One mighthave on overalls here and gracefullywear a scholar's simple robe.
Graduation is something more than a spectacle here in Kansas. It is a solemn rite. Its ceremonial is sacredly simple in the straightforward expression of consecration to the higher good and practical common interests of community, state, and nation. A binding vow is laid on all those who depart. They are bound to the very end they came here for. Their people shall not be sorry if they had the same end in view. This year a greater work lies before them. K. U. is especially in Kansas. Kansas has its sleeves rolled up. So has K. U. Now that the Third Liberty Loan is passed, another must be made ready for and a Red Cross drive is due in between. The labor of the harvest is near. Other labors lie just beyond. Kansan will do its utmost. So will K. U. There is a reason. K. U. is different. It was made by Kansans in
Kansas to do the things that Kansas want done.
SHE ARRIVES
Let's hand it to her. The University of Kansas woman has come into her own. She hasn't been a sub on the football and baseball squads, although she did add volume to the cheering, but she certainly proved she was not a frivolous, empty-headed child seeking the "social benefits of highereducation." She had done something this year.
The Kanaan's staff, depleted constantly by loss of men going to war she has kept alive and alert to what is required of it every University day. She has learned to apply the essentials of food conservation by diligent study. In her Christian Association's practical war policy she has taken up work long since gone to the front left behind. The women have taken the men's empty places. What is more they have just about filled them. They are not saying so. But the men know. They have not usurped. They have substituted just as have their sisters outside of universities all over the country.
Hats off! Her mettle is known.
Her power is unquestioned. She has arrived.
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
PRESIDENT AS MAN OF LETTERS
I have not in this short study attempted any critical estimate of President Wilson's place in American literature. My object has been simply to show that, whatever else he may be, he is a man of letters to the fingerprints—a man steaked in literary traditions and possessed of fine literary gifts. He can make political science readable to the layman (no small achievement, by the way), and he can make history fascinating without imparting to it the cheap overcoloring of fiction or the hectic fervor of partisanship.
This aspect of his genius is not sufficiently recognized either here or in his own country. His administrative achievements, both in education and politics, and his fame as a statesman, have eclipsed his repute as an author. But there can be little doubt that if he had abandoned the contemplative for the active life he would have taken a high place among contemporary writers of the English language; and, even as it is, it ought not to be forgotten that this great president is at the same time an accomplished and attractive man of letters.-William Archer in the Fortnightly Review.
BREAD CARDS AND DEMOCRACY
"If we are not supposed to eat wheat, why doesn't the government issue bread cards?" said a student helping himself to a second piece of white bread.
it may be necessary to have bread cards, but if it is, it will be because the democratic plan upon which the entire program of the Food Administration was established has fallen down. When Mr. Hoover became Food Administrator, he said that it should not be necessary to compel, that it ought only to be essential to put the facts before people, they would then do what was necessary without compulsion.
Bread cards ought not be a necessity in a country fighting to keep democracy safe at home—Daily Illini.

In the clerkships under the Civil Service Commission, positions for map colorists, law clerks, fingerprint classifiers, and multigraph machine operators, are listed with salaries ranging from $750 to $1800 a year.
Women chauffeurs may do volunteer work in the United States with local branches of organizations conducting war relief work. They may also volunteer for service abroad in the American Red Cross Motor Corps

"Any rings? Any old iron?" chanted the dealer, as he knocked at the suburban villa. The man of the house himself opened the door.
"No, go away," he snapped, irritably. "There's nothing for you. My wife is away."
The itinerant merchant hesitated a moment, and then inquired: "Any old bottles?"—Wit and Humor.

"No, mamma, I didn't," answered Bobby. "I just said: 'This house smells as if it was full of cookies, but what's that to me?'"

Soft Leather Wanted For Aviators' Jackets
Kansas City Red Cross Makes Use of Material Put in Salvage Boxes
A use has been found for all the old leather which students will not want to take home with them. The salvage committee of the Kansas City Red Cross chapter is asking for all such articles for use in making wind proof jackets for men in the service.
The pieces of leather are sewed, "crazy quilt" fashion to a lining and are then covered with cloth, thus forming a tight inter-lining for winter coats. These garments are being made in the Kansas City work rooms of the Red Cross.
Miss Margaret Lynn asks that contributions be brought to the salvage boxes. A large bundle of glove tops had already been collected before this request was made. Miss Lynn said this this morning she thought if the students will respond an immense amount of leather can be collected.
The backs of leather gloves, the tops of leather shoes, worn leather pillow covers and leather manicure cases are suggestions of articles to be contributed.

Kansas Phi Gams First
Winners of Baker Trophy
The Kansas chapter of Phi Gamma Delta has been awarded the Newton D. Baker Social Service Cup, a trophy presented annually to the chapter of the fraternity which excels in religious, moral, and social service activities. The cup is named in honor of Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, who is a Phi Gam. It was awarded this year for the first time, and the name of the Kansas chapter is the first to go on the cup.
Hall, and to the Student Friendship Fund, together with its war work, were other favorable factors. Seventy-eight Phi Gams from K. U. are now in the service. The Phi Gam service flag is one of the largest in Lawrence.
The loving cup, which was made by Tiffany's, is nineteen inches
across the bowl, and is a masterpiece of the silversmith's art. It arrived last week, and was one of the centers of attraction at the Phi Gam Parents' Day held yesterday at the chapter house. Chancellor and Mrs. Strong and their son, Frank, Junior, were guests of honor at the Parents' Day dinner.
Good scholarship, the maintenance of a homelike atmosphere around the fraternity house, and a general sound condition of the chapter's affairs and conduct are some of the things considered in awarding the cup. The prestige given the chapter by "Bmother" Ann Cahill, who has been with the Phi Gams for nine years, and who is known to two generations of Filis, was a big factor in obtaining the cup for the Kansas chapter. The local chapter's donations to the Lawrence Social Service

Tigers Have Four Veterans
Jayhawkers Prepare for Return Series at Ames, Hoping to Better Fortunes
Coach Jay Bond and his Jayhawk baseball team returned from Columbia Saturday morning after a distractous series with the Missouri Tigers Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The Jayhawkers were defeated in all three games and were outclassed in every department of the game. The Kansas nine was considerably weekened by the loss Weltm and Schoenbach, who traveled trip because of heavy school work. The Tiger nine included four veterans, while there was not a letter man on the Kansas队.
Because of a misunderstanding in train schedules, the team got practically no sleep Tuesday night and as a result, the men were in poor condition for the game Wednesday afternoon. The Jayhawkers fought hard, however, and the game was chucked to the finish line by the whole up and allowed the Tigers to score four runs. Shaun pitched for the Kansans in the first game and was opposed by Urie, Missouri's star hurler, who struck out fourteen men.
It was the same story in the second game, which was played in a dust storm. Goodwin hurried well for four innings and Missouri started scoring and tallied in each remaining innings. The weak hitting of the Jayhawkers was again apparent, for Beck of Missouri struck out eleven men and allowed only six runs, some back in the third game and held the Tigers scoreleave for two innings, but the Missourians scored three runs in the third and Cherry went into the box. After the fourth innning, the Jayhawkers began making errors right and left and the game became a runaway.
The veteran Tiger team, with two of the most feared sluggers in the Valley last year, Dipold and Slusher, back on the team, presented a hard-hitting combination that was too much for Kansas. Another fact that bothered the Jayhawk pitcher a great deal was the fact that six of the Tigers _were left-handed hitters, and the Kansas hurlers had had very little practice against left-handed hitting this year.
The team will play a return series at Ames Thursday, Friday and Saturday and is determined to make a good showing against the Iowans. Kansas broke even with Iowa two weeks ago, and hopes to take the series on this trip. Missouri will play the last series of the season here next week.

Nerves of Submarine Lie in Conning Tower Writes Former Teacher
C. W. White, Instructor In School of Engineering, Tells of Government Work
Part of Work Is Difficult
Six Men Frequently Crowded Into Four by Six Foot Space Installing Instruments
The following letter was received by F. H. Sibley from C. W. White who was a professor in the School Engineering and is now in Gov ment service in San Francisco. "Dear F' end:-
"I arrived here safely after an uncomfortable journey due to the fact that I am a poor traveler. Left, K. C. Tuesday night and arrived in San Francisco about noon Friday. Was assigned to the Union Iron Work offices and sent to the office of the company in the afternoon and enrolled for work."
"The machinists were all wanted for submarine work. I had expected to go into the shops on small machine work, but Mr. Myers, who has charge of the submarine work, represented to me the extreme need for men to work within the hulls putting them out and making sure that make up the equipment, so I asked I would work where I was most needed as long as I could stand the work.
"I was assigned to the coming towers. The conning tower is to the submarine what the head is to the body. All the nerves center there. The specialized devices which record what is going on without and within; and those which command the action of the tremendous forces with which the hull is crowded, are located in the tower. Innumerable holes to drill and tap, frequently in most difficult places. We have made helpful tools we have for our work. Much has to be done with ratchet and drill. Can seldom use a double and tap wrench. Files and hammer and chisel are our steady companions.
"The hulls are afloat and I work practically in the open air. The climate is fine except for a cold wind that blows in from off the ocean at this time of year. They tell me that San Francisco does not have warm weather until September.
"Each machinist has a helper. Sometimes he is of great assistance, but much of the time can not be of service and sometimes he is in the way. The towers are oval about four feet one way and six feet the other. Frequently three machinists and their helpers are crowded into a tower at the same time for measurements to be made; tools to require constant climbing in and out and you can be sure it is hard work.
"I am not certain that I shall be here after this week. I have a sister in Los Angeles and I have received an offer of a job on small machine work in a ship yard at Long Beach about thirty miles from Los Angeles. It is government work and the pay is the same as it is here. It will not be so hard for me as this climbing around. I will be near my sister and I think the climate will be more desirable. Shall take the week to think it over.
"You would be tremendously interested in the various mechanical processes going on here. The Oxy-Acetylene torch is a Godsend to the shipbuilding industry, and we are over twelve thousand employed here at the Union Iron Works."

Student Welfare League To Collect Old Clothes
The Woman's Student Welfare League will canvas Lawrence May 18, to collect old clothes that have been discarded but which may be used by girls in the poorer schools of Kentucky and Tennessee. All University girls are asked to go through their ward-robes and get articles ready for the committee which will collect Saturday morning.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 14, 1918.
Welfare leagues, who have investigated conditions in these mountain schools, report they are suffering from a lack of all kinds of supplies and that many of the scholars will be unable to continue their work unless clothing is sent them.
T. War
Here and Over There
May 15, 536 officers will go to Camp Perry, Ohio, to be trained as snipers in the Small Arms Firing School, and ten days later 525 more will report. One thousand officers and marksmen each month and will be sent back to campments to pass on their knowledge to their men.
The report that American troops were not to be used on the west front until they became more powerful was an error; all American forces in France have been placed under General Foch's command.
Aliens who meet government tests will receive their naturalization papers in accordance with a recent act of Congress. This will grant citizenship to about 123,277 men in the national army and many more civilizers.
A national exhibition was held in Berlin recently to popularize the use of paper clothing. In an effort to get additional gold, wedding rings have been suppressed in Germany. The food and health situations of that country are reported to be quite critical.
The third training camp for Y. M. C. A. workers for overseas service was opened last week at Princeton University, and a fourth will be held late this month. Foreign language classes, gymnasium work, conference, and lectures are given.
More than 100,000 women are employed on Prussian-Hessian railways in Germany as against 10,000 before the war.
Women of University Will Dance for Orphans
Miss Topping, Professor Preyer and Mrs. Olcott Will Feature Program
Featuring as a solo dancer Miss Helen Topping, f. a. 17, with twenty-two of her dancing pupils, and Prof Carl A. Preyer and Mrs. Herman Olcott, a benefit for the Fatherless Children of France will be given at the Bowersock Theater on Thursday, May 23. The benefit will be given under the auspices of the Lawrence Division of the Society, of which Mrs. F. B. Dains is chairman, and Prof E. W. Murray is secretary. The committee is now supporting 150 orphans in France.
Twenty-two dancers, most of them University women, will appear with Miss Topping. Clyde Farnsworth, her dancing partner in Kansas City, will dance with her, and in solo work. Miss Topping's pupils made a distinct hit last year in a Red Cross benefit; but the performance was without the efforts of Miss Toppings, as she was ill at the time. This year she promises to present a better program than ever.
Prof. Carl A. Preyer, whose piano work is known not only all over America, but in foreign lands, needs no introduction to a K. U. audience. Mrs. Herman Olcott, the wife of former Coach Olcott, is a member of the faculty of the School of Fine Arts, and is in Lawrence in her own concerts, and in the Minnesota Choral Union and in the Minnesota Symphony Orchestrum.
Tickets for the recital are being sold by a committee of University women, who will canvass the campus and maintain a ticket office in Fraser Hall check stand on Wednesday and Thursday. Reserved seats may be had at the Round Corner Drug Store May 20.
Lee Bryant Says Twenty-six Pounds of Turkey Served Eighty-four Persons
Caterer Denies Charge That Kanza's Supper Violated Food Rules
Only Unfit Scraps "Wasted"
Rolls Served Were Regular Wa Substitute Made by Bakeries, Reply Declares
"Food conservation rules were not violated, as charged by the county food administrator, at the Kanza Supper at the Country Club, last Friday night," said Lee Bryant, who served the supper, to v.
"Wheat flour hot rolls were not served at the ms il. The rolls were made of flour containing the propionate institute now being used by the bakers.
"The food administrator's letter complaining of the Kanza saupper said; 'The turkey carcasses contained enough meat to have provided ample supply for several, families for a week.' Two turkeys were served to eighty-four persons at the dinner and the two fowls together dressed down to a total of twenty-six pounds. That averages less than three-tenth of a pound of turkey to a person served, the turkey meat is and all. The fact of the turkey would not amply supply several families in meat for a week let alone the fact that they had first been served to eighty-four people.
"A standard cook book calls for thirty-four instead of twenty-six pounds of dressed turkey to serve seventy people, which was the number of the guests. In addition to the nearest five ten employees and four musicians."
"The scraps of bread which were thrown away were positively unfit for further use. It would have conflicted with the pure food laws to use them and they were only uneaten bits that had been served and scraps of crust. There was no waste in connection with the supper."
Officers of the Kanza fraternity deny that there was any waste or violation of Food Administration orders at the supper.
The charges referred to above were made by the Douglas county food administrator, and the investigation followed a complaint received by him. The charges were sent in the form of a letter to the following: Walter P. Innes, federal food administrator for Kansas; Chancellor Strong; Lee Bryant, caterer for the supper; University Daily Kansan, Lawrence JournalWorld; The Daily Gazette, and the Kanza fraternity.
L. U: Crawford, certified public accountant of the firm of Crockett, Couchman and Crawford of Kansas City, will lecture to students interested in accounting, in Room 202, Administration Building, Wednesday at 1 o'clock, on the subject, "Municipal Accounts."

Cleopatra is with us again; not the Cleopatra that Caesar and Anthony loved, but perhaps a reincarnation of her spirit. She comes robed in a golden coat and bound with chains. She stands chained to the front porch of the Pi K A House passively chewing her cud.
Cleo Is Here To Help In Winning the War
All this is to say the Pi K A's have a cow. Having no way to raise a war garden, they feel that keeping a cow is another way to help win the war. To her intimate friends and members of the Pi K A household the newcomer is Cleo for short, but no such familiarity will be tolerated on the part of strangers. To them she is Cleopatra.
Life with the freshmen has lost its rosy hue. A cow of Cleopatra's temperament requires lots of care. Freshmen now leave the house with an admonition to return home in time to do the chores.
THE CALL
Jims and Mames, Who "Fail to Pass" in School Cost $1,910,260 Yearly
Dean Kelly Urges Appointment of School Nurses for
By Lieut. Dick Treweeke. 343d Infantry
But the children with their tears had a more correct estimate of the situation than did father and mother with their smiles. While is wasn't a tragedy, it was no smiling matter. For Jimmy and Mary and the 56,053 other school children who failed to pass last year cost the State of Kansas just $1,910,260, by that failure. Each one of them will remain approximately a year longer in school and do a year's work over again and for each year a child spends in school the state pays an average of $33.54.
Lieutenant Treweke, a loyal son of K. U., record holder of University of Kansas broad and high jump, prominent in dramatics, member of Sigma Chi fraternity and the Sigma Delta Chi honorary journalism fraternity, entered the service of his country from the University a year ago. This poem was written at Camp-Grant, Illinois:
Kansas
Jimmie and Mary came home from school the other day crying bitterly. They had failed "to pass" and would have to take the third grade or the fourth grade, which ever it was, over again. Mother sympathized. Father smiled with smiled at the tragedy the youngsters were making of such a little thing.
"A big part of this loss of $1,910,260 could have been prevented last year and could be avoided easily henceforth," said Dr. F. J. Kelley, dean of the School of Education of the University of Kansas. "It has been stopped in many other states and in Butler County in our own state, they have taken successful steps to stop it. Mary and Jimmie failed because they were handicapped in some way. They wanted to keep up with their school-mates and their failure was a real childhood tragedy. But nature was against them, some little constitutional trouble or other aliment that could have been corrected by a competent school nurse.
When comrades call me to the place
Where regiments are falling into line,
Have I the right to linger here
And to the marchers say—"My life is mine!"
“This is not theory. It is substantial fact that has been worked out in other states. We can do it in Kansas, A competent school nurse at $2,000 a year, for each county in Kansas, will cost $210,000 a year and a competent school nurse for each city of the first and second classes would cost $174,000. In addition cities of the third classes should have teachers at $12,000 a year, for backward children, and that would cost $184,000 a year. Altogether it would total $658,800 a year, but it would be worth it. It would have a big part of that $1,910,260 thrown away each year.
When death runs rife on fields of hate
That gush with lind profanities of lust,
Have I the right to feast on life
While friends partake the eucharist of dust?
When starlight gleams on crosses white
Where heroes under sacred srecline,
Have I the right to look to God
And shout about the knell "My life is mine!"
"The Fittest Shall Survive" Is the Doctrine of Germany
Vernon Kellogg Told of the German Philosophy and the Value of The American College Trained Man, in Lecture Following Phi Beta Kappa Initiation, Last Night
Military Expediency Is Only Argument With Germany
"It is the Collegian's Duty to Interpret German Philosophy to the People and to Show the Impossibility of a World Ruled by German Ideals."
Plain Tales From The Hill
ANOTHER COMMUNICATION
Dear Editor:
Two fraternity women—who live across the street from the University of Kansas campus—loitered up to class yesterday at noon in their car. That is to say the car they had that day.
I hear you are going to elect new members to the Kansan Board this week. What I want to know is where you will get the new members. I hear that they—the cublets—have not been working since the last weekly fire. Please return with the self-addressed and stamped envelope. Windy Pete.
Foot note: One father has come back for his car, but the other has forgotten that he left it in Lawrence and never found it, although the week-end has passed by.
ATHLETIC NOTE!
So speaks out a local Topeka paper.
A most determined effort has been launched to give Washburn a place in the athletic world once more.
K. U. students will be glad to hear that a "determined effort" has been launched. So many have been launched in the past which have never set sail, that Jayhawkers interested in athletics always recall the life story printed nearly a year ago. This epic intimation that KU students soon be instituted as compulsory exercise Washburn. But it was a false alarm, and nothing came of the extreme advocates.
But, seriously Washburn is in Kansas. K. U. stands for all things good in Kansas and will welcome a generous rival in sport.
Dean Blackmar Made Member of Committee To Help Immigrants
Inadequate Provision Made for Reception and Care of Foreigners—He Says
Dean F. W. Blackmar has been made a member of a committee to organize a League for Constructive Immigration Legislation, to recommend Federal laws which shall more adequately control immigration.
The main purpose, according to Dean Blackmar, is to provide for the education of immigrants in the English language, in the principles and practice of citizenship, in their induction into society, and in the number of immigrants to come in one year, together with improved methods of naturalization.
"Trouble with immigrants is largely our own fault," said Dean Blackmar today. "We have made inadequate provision for their reception, education and care. It is believed the number of immigrants coming in any one year should be limited to 5 or 10 per cent of the naturalized citizens of that race already here. This would allow them to come only as fast as we could change them into American citizens and help them to find a place in the labor market.
"The laws should insist that if immigrants come here to make their permanent home, they should be forced to take out naturalization papers at once, and to learn the English language.
"After the war in all probability the governments of European nations will prevent emigration of able-bodied men in the war-stricken countries. No doubt there will be a desire of millions of helpless people to come to America if they could find a way. Special legislation must be made giving attention to this class."

the deportations from Belgium, the doctrine of military expediency, the German Neo-Darwinistic philosophy, the conflicts with the German authorities over relief boats, the failure of the military government to understand the motive of the Belgian Relief Commission, the conversations of the German staff officers which Mr. Kellogg heard at Grand Headquarters, the views of the All-Highest, were revealed to a University audience by Vernon L. Kellogg, K. U. graduate, former professor at the University of Kansas and at Leland Stanford, Jr. University and nationally known for his work with the Belgian Relief Commission in Belgium and Northern France and with the Food Administration, in the address given after Phi Beta Kappa institution Monday night.
CHARITY MUST BE PROFITABLE
"The only argument which has any weight with the German authorities in Belgium or anywhere else is military expediency. No considerations of humanity could move them if they thought charity would not be a military advantage. Canal boats were held up in Rotterdam for six weeks, while supplies were almost exhausted in Belgium and North France, because some German officer thought the boats might come into English hands. After six weeks of argument we got them released by depositing their value with General Von Bissling. "The deportations from Belgium were undertaken with a coldly calculating attitude. Men were needed in German war factories and a large population were idle in Belgium. After three months men came back, released at the request of the Pope and President Wilson, the Kaiser said. But they were released because they could be of no further use to the German government. They were physical wrecks, starved, beaten and suffering from exposure because they would not say they voluntarily offered their services to the German Government.
BELIEVES IN RIGHT TO RULE
BELIEVE IN NATURE.
"The right of the strongest people to survive and to subdue all other peoples to their will is the principle for which Germany is fighting. No one has a place in their philosophy. I must of a zoologist and biologist to know that no complete analogy can be drawn between men and beasts. Even if qualitative differences only separated men and beasts, those are so great that no parallel can be drawn.
"It is the duty of the collegiate to interpret the German philosophy to the people, to show them the impossibilities of a world ruled by their ideals.
"The German officers whom I knew asked me to tell the truth about them in America. They believe that their business is am I telling the truth about Germany."
COLLEGE MEN PROVE WORTH
Of the work of the 150 American college men, students in English universities, we must assign the Belgian Relief Committee Mr. cellogg said: "It was a task requiring consideration, education, tact, diplomacy and patience, and these young men rose to the occasion splendidly. There was a time when a as pessimistic professor, doubted whether the products of our American colleges were going to be able to meet such situations. The work of the young men in Belgium changed my views."
The German passion for detail impressed Kellogg especially. "I was riding one day in the armed military car that was provided for me," said Mr. Kellogg, "and it occurred to me that I could leap over the side and before either the German officer who held the gun or the military chaufer, or the German orderly in the front seat could swing one of the big guns on the side of the car into position and fire at me. I remarked on this possibility to the

SIGNIFICANCE REALIZED
The war; nothing else matters.
SIGNIFICANCE REALIZED Memorial Day has been left to old soldiers and their next of kin and a few generous enthusiasts for too many years now. Other people have ignored these patient sentimentalists, or endured them, or humored them. Other people have done with the day what they pleased.
Memorial Day has been reserved for cleaning the furnace, hauling away the accumulation of ashes, and shifting the furniture to summer positions. Families have had fights and picnics. Many have promenced in dress parade to ball grounds to see an athletic contest sizzle while the old codgers in blue stumbled to the resting place of their comrades and sang their battle hymns.
The President of the United States has spoken the higher purpose of his people. He has called them to prayer with him as the nation's sacred altar. Every American must be mindful of the Past. The soldiers of Sixty-one both North and South shall be honored for what their sons have done in this new day and they shall honor their sons. For what another Memorial Day is bound to mean, this Memorial Day of 1918 shall be something different. It is a Sabbath of memories, a Sabbath of thanks to God, and a Sabbath of supplication to the God of all men that America may be clean of heart, clear of mind, and strong in purpose to Do his Will for the good of mankind. Let no irreverent un-American act or utterance profane this day!
ESSAY: THE GAB-FEST
It takes two to make a gab-fest and here at K. U, any number from that upward may spend an evening or an afternoon engaged in one of these feats of mastersly eloquence. It is customary always to gather in the room of someone who happens to want to study, and there to hold forth at great length on any designated subject or on no subject at all
Skilled gab-festers who observe all the rules of the game always group themselves artistically on the bed, in any position which may strike them as comfortable. More bed-spreads have been ruined for K. U. landlads through the pernicious influence of the gab-fest than from the most violent wrestling matches ever staged in a rooming house.
The gab-fest is the paradise of the "moocher." On such occasions he can "mooch" more "smokin'" than at any other kind of a gathering. A package of "scags" at a gab-fest lasts about as long as the proverbial tallow dog in Hades in pursuit of the well-known astescat boss.
The gab-fest seldm accomplishes anything; it merely wastes time.
occasionally a dare-devil wager results, occasioned by some long-winded gabber's over-supply of gab, and then, after the bet is settled, there is material at hand for another feet. It is only the student who is boning for a quiz or writing his mid-term in the room selected by the assemblage who learns anything. He remembers swar-word which he had long since forgotten, and manages to tear his hair in various untried ways.
The gab-fest, a combination of debating society and minstrel show, is a peculiar institution of K. U. student life. The flow of spontaneous wit and humor, to say the least, is remarkable. Even profs are known to indulge occasionally, of course in a rather more clandestine manner than the studies, but their utterances at such times are very like the things heard at typical undergraduate gabfests.
At this season of the year, the gabest is beginning to move out on the front porch, and any evening scores of them may be seen and heard in the student district in Lawrence. In a few weeks, however, the sound of the gabest will no longer be heard here. But the fests in the village drug store back home will be enlivened by the addition of college-trained men.

CAMPUS OPINION
Dear Editor:
All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. The name will then join the date, but the editor must know who is writing the communication as evidence of communication. Communications are welcome.
At the first of the semester a ruling was made by the University Senate excluding seniors from final examinations if they had grades of A or B. This ruling was made on the supposition that seniors with those and would have to be so without being burdened with final examinations.
The fact that they were seniors who had done four years of University work was to be taken as evidence of their sincerity and their interest in their work. Four years of training in the University was to be accepted as evidence of their ability to organize their work. And there is no plausible excuse for the wearing and wearying ordeal except as proof of the ability of the student to organize the work he has covered.
But this ruling didn't foil the profs who have had the habit of piling up work for the students at the end of the year. It is their last chance at the seniors, and examinations are very much in their favor, in nearly every class in which seniors are enrolled a week or so before time for finals.
This isn't fair, either to the seniors, who are supposed to be excused, or to the juniors who will thereby be required to take two finals. It simply means overworked classes as usual, except that this year they will be more overworked than ever before. There is something wrong if the profs have fallen into such a rut that they cannot estimate the work of the seniors without subjecting them to final examinations.
A. Senior.

At April's bidding into perfumed maze,
Of subtle lilac loveliness—a haze

Of love and hope and joy of youth,

And now, you've listened to in silent grace.
Perhaps has felt the light caress or lust
You could tell us all of life—a grave or two
Tears may have mingled with you blossoms' dew.

When I am very old, I think, ano friend.
And happening of my youth are dim to me.

Red Cross News
FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF US ARE ENLISTED
The quota of Red Cross nurses for the southwestern division required to meet the demands of the army and navy service is 605 before June 1 and 2,500 before January 1. This quota has been worked out on the basis of the most comprehensive survey ever made by the American Nurses' Association of the nursing resources in the United States.
Secretary Baker is authority for the statement that the presence of the Red Cross in France turing the past ten months has been worth a million and a half men in the trenches. It has strengthened the morals of the fighting forces to such an extent that army authorities are beginning to regard it as one of the most important elements of the armies.
Rules have been changed so that young men between the ages of eighteen and twenty may now go to Italy as ambulance drivers. Men within the draft, showing physical disability sufficient to put them in class five may also be taken.
A new post office rule prevents friends from sending many comforts to the boys over there. However many articles are received by the Red Cross which may be shipped in bulks is in the hands of parents and relatives of soldiers to send every comfort to the soldiers at the front.
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
LEARN ABOUT THE Criticism and discussion of governmental policies in war time may be valid or harmful, depending upon the judgment and information possessed by the individual who does the talking.
The much exercised American prerogative of free speech has found and will continue to find a vast field for its outlet in war situations. College students and college professors—and every one else—are talking about the war. Nor is it wrong that they should be. They are great offenders if they take a stand on grounds of ignorance or misinformation. But college men and women may just as truly be powerful defenders if they labor in the promotion of accurate knowledge about the war—defenders of the Allies of their own country, and of the colleges as places of learning.
There is nothing more ludicrous or pathetic to hear a man argue about some great question of the World War when he possesses absolutely no definite information. Even the highest officials and greatest thinkers can not definitely foretell future. But what knowledge there is available of the past and present should be a constant field of inquiry

SIGNIFICANCE REALIZED
The war; nothing else matters.
SIGIFICANCE REALIZED Memorial Day has been left to old soldiers and their next of kin and a few generous enthusiasts for too many years now. Other people have ignored these patient sentimentalists, or endured them, or humored them. Other people have done with the day what they pleased.
Memorial Day has been reserved for cleaning the furnace, hauling away the accumulation of ashes, and shifting the furniture to summer positions. Families have had fights and picnics. Many have promenced in dress parade to ball grounds to see an athletic contest sizzle while the old codgers in blue stumbled to the resting place of their comrades and sang their battle hymns.
The President of the United States has spoken the higher purpose of his people. He has called them to prayer with him as the nation's sacred altar. Every American must be mindful of the Past. The soldiers of Sixty-one both North and South shall be honored for what their sons have done in this new day and they shall honor their sons. For what another Memorial Day is bound to mean, this Memorial Day of 1918 shall be something different. It is a Sabbath of memories, a Sabbath of thanks to God, and a Sabbath of supplication to the God of all men that America may be clean of heart, clear of mind, and strong in purpose to Do his Will for the good of mankind. Let no irreverent un-American act or utterance profane this day!
ESSAY: THE GAB-FEST
It takes two to make a gab-fest and here at K. U, any number from that upward may spend an evening or an afternoon engaged in one of these feasts of masterly eloquence. It is customary always to gather in the room of someone who happens to want to study, and there to hold forth at great length on any designated subject or on no subject at all.
Skilled gab-festers who observe all the rules of the game always group themselves artistically on the bed, in any position which may strike them as comfortable. More bed-spreads have been ruined for K. U. landlads through the pernicious influence of the gab-fest than from the most violent wrestling matches ever staged in a rooming house.
The gab-fest is the paradise of the "moocher." On such occasions he can "mooch" more "smokin'" than at any other kind of a gathering. A package of "scags" at a gab-fest lasts about as long as the proverbial tallow dog in Hades in pursuit of the well-known asbestos cat.
The gab-fest seldom accomplishes anything; it merely wastes time.
Jocassionally a dare-devil wager results, occasioned by some long-winded gabber's over-supply of gab, and then, after the bet is settled, there is material at hand for another fest. It is only the student who is boning for a quiz or writing his mid-term in the room selected by the assemblage who learns anything. He remembers swear-words which he had long since forgotten, and manages to tear his hair in various untried ways.
The gab-fest, a combination of debating society and minstrel show, is a peculiar institution of K. U. student life. The flow of spontaneous wit and humor, to say the least, is remarkable. Even profs are known to indulge occasionally, of course in a rather more clandestine manner than the studes, but their utterances at such times are very like the things heard at typical undergraduate gab-fests.
At this season of the year, the gabfest is beginning to move out on the front porch, and any evening scores of them may be seen and heard in the student district in Lawrence. In a few weeks, however, the sound of the gab-fest will no longer be heard here. But the fests in the village drug store back home will be enlivened by the addition of college-trained men.
--oy the individual who does the talking.
The much exercised American pre-operative of free speech has found and will continue to find a vast field for its outlet in war situations. College students and college professors—and every one else—are talking about the war. Nor will they be afraid. Are great offenders if they take a stand on grounds of ignorance or misinformation. But college men and women may just as truly be powerful defenders if they labor in the promotion of accurate knowledge about the war—defenders of the Allies of their own country, and of the colleges as places of learning.
CAMPUS OPINION
All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. The name who then signs it should be the editor, not the states, but the editor who know who is writing the communication as evidence of its validity. Communications are welcome.
Dear Editor:
At the first of the semester a ruling was made by the University Senate excluding seniors from final examinations if they had grades A or B. This ruling was made on the supraexamination with the university research work would have enough to do without being burdened with final examinations.
The fact that they were seniors who had done four years of University work was to be taken as evidence of their sincerity and their interest in their work. Four years of training in the University was to be accepted as evidence of their ability to organize their work. And there is no plausible excuse for the wearing and wearying deolal except as proof of the ability of the student to organize the work he has covered.
But this ruling didn't foil the profs who have had the habit of piling up work for the students at the end of the year. It is their last chance at the seniors, and examinations very much on the order of finals are being given to them than in class with the seniors are enrolled a week or so before time for a final.
This isn't fair, either to the seniors, who are supposed to be excused or to the juniors who will thereby be required to take two finals. It simply means overworked classes as usual, except that this year they will be more overworked than ever before. There is something wrong if the profs have fallen into such a rut that they cannot estimate the work of the seniors without subjecting them to final examinations.
A. Senior.

THE LILAC HEDGE By Edith Roles
"Well, that depends upon who calls you up."—Ex.
Half hidden in the star-stabbed dusk of night
Gem-sparkling in the noonday's yellow light,
How many springs have seen your branches break
The long low iliac hedge half spans the lawn.
At April's bidding into perfumed maze.
Of subtle lilac loveliness—a haze
How many hands have touched your shimmering lace—
Of litting mystic fragrance in its wake.
What could you tell if you might speak—what lore
Of love and hope and joy of youth,
of yore
Perhaps has felt the light caress of just
You could tell us all of life—a grave or two
When I am very old, I think, and friend.
One blossom from your store—upon its dust,
Tears may have mingled with your blossoms' dew.
And happening of my youth are dim to me.
In all its old still beauty I shall see
that long low lilac hedge on Orane
RedCrossNews
FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF US ARE ENLISTED
The quota of Red Cross nurses for the southwestern division required to meet the demands of the army and navy service is 605 before June 1 and 2,500 before January 1. This quota has been worked out on the basis of the most comprehensive survey ever made by the American Nurses' Association of the nursing resources in the United States.
Secretary Baker is authority for the statement that the presence of the Red Cross in France during the past ten months has been worth a million and a half men in the trenches. It has strengthened the morals of the fighting forces to such an extent that army authorities are beginning to regard it as one of the most important elements of the armies.
A new post office rule prevent friends from sending many comfort to the boys over there. However many articles are received by the Red Cross which may be shipped in parcels to the soldiers and the parents and relatives of soldiers to send every comfort to the soldiers at the front.
Rules have been changed so that young men between the ages of eighteen and twenty may now go to Italy as ambulance drivers. Men within the draft, showing physical disability sufficient to put them in class five may also be taken.
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
Criticism and discussion of governmental policies in war time may be valid or harmful, depending upon the judgment and information possessed by the individual who does the talking.
There is nothing more ludicrous or pathetic to hear a man argue about some great question of the World War when he possesses absolutely no definite information. Even the highest officials and greatest thinkers can not definitely foretell future. But what knowledge there is available of the past and present should be a constant field of inquiry for the college man—Cornell Sum.

Woman's Pledge to Ban Platinum in All Jewelry
National Movement Will Conform Engagement Rings To War Necessity
A pledge for the conservation of platinum in form of engagement rings, wedding rings and other jewelry, sent out by the Women's National League for the Conservation of Platinum, has been received by Mrs. Eustace Brown, Advisor of women.
The pledge has been prepared at the suggestion of a Vassar professor of chemistry, for all college and university women. It has been adapted from the D. A. A. R. pledge of 1917. The main purpose of the pledge is to urge the conservation of platinum so that chemical research may continue during the war and after its close. Students wishing to sign the pledge should see Mrs. Brown.
The pledge is:
For the duration of the war I will neither purchase nor accept as gifts jewelry and other articles made in whole or in part of platinum so that all possible supplies of this precious metal shall be available for employment where they can do the greatest good in the service of our country, and I further pledge my influence to persuade others to take the same patriotic stand.

Mr. Kellogg also told of his work at Washington, and of the willingness with which learned men from every college and university in America were volunteering for war work there.
"Conealed behind the modest title of 'major,'" he said, "is the name of a man who is head of the best medical college in this country; and he is only one of our foremost scholars who are giving their services to the country. In every bureau, in every department, the college men are coming forward to the places where exact and scientific knowledge is required; and they are meeting the situation in a manner that compels respect both for their academic training and for their patriotism
"I am glad to see, on the waistcoats of some of the most influential men in Washington, the Phi Beta Kappa key—an evidence that the key of learning is also the key of achievement. The collegian is meeting the emergency, and is doing it in a way that reflects credit upon him, and the traditions of which he is a part."

Invitation Meet May 18 For Missouri Valley's High School Track Men
Meet
Kansas City High Schools Will Get Expenses Paid to Meet
Is Classiest Meet of Year
Best Athletes of Middle West Will Compete Here Next Saturday
The meet is open to all high school athletes and entries are not restricted to this state. The best athletes in the high schools in the Missouri Valley will be invited to enter this meet. Many men who did good work in the state inter-scholastic meet here two weeks ago will enter athletes.
The annual high school invitation track meet will be held on McCook Field, May 18. The Kansas City high schools will enter teams. The Kansas City schools refused to enter the meet at first because of the expense of sending four teams here, but the University will pay the Kansas City schools' expenses this year.
The classiest high school athletes will compete and good time should be made. In the past one or two men have placed well against teams with large entry lists.
K.U. Nine is Preparing For Series With Ames Last of Present Week
First Double Plays of Season Pulled in Practice With Freshmen
The Varsity nine defeated Coach Wedell's freshmen by a 2-0 score in a four-inning practice game last night and the team played together much better than in the Missouri series. Goodwin had easy sailing for the Jayhawkers and he did not allow the yearlings a single hit. Harms pitched for the frosh and was in good form, but two hits by Isenberger and Foster, mixed with costly errors, put Foster and Schoepel across the plate.
The Varsity infield played well and completed the first two double plays made by the infield this year. Lonberg started the first one, while Foster was responsible for starting the second one. Neither Cherry nor Oyster were out for practice, Cooper subbing for Cherry on first base.
The team will leave for Ames tomorrow with the expectation of giving the loww a fight for the series. The Jay Hawkeys can take two of the three games, they can go into second places in the Valley race. Weltmer will probably be unable to make the trip with the team and the same outfield that played against Missouri will be used, with Keeler, Oyster and Scheeppel playing the garden positions.
Kansas Will Meet Tigers In Tournament Saturday
Captain Uhls and Men Have Been Practicing Hard for First Meet
The Kansas tennis team will meet the Missouri team here Saturday, May 18, in the first tournament of the season. Captain Kenneth Uhls has selected Howard Skaer and Claude Matthews as his team mates for the meet.
The men have been practicing hard every day that the courts are in shape so that they will be in the best of condition for the matches. Captain Uhls only gets to work with his men on Saturdays, but he is practicing hard in Kansas City every day.
There will probably be two single matches and a double match. Captain Uhls and Skaar will probably work in the doubles while Uhls and Matthews will work in the singles. Kenneth Uhls appears to be the best in the valley this year and should have little trouble in taking his match. The other two men are new men on the team this year, but they should give the team from Missouri a hard battle.
Architects Give Dinner
The Architectural Engineering Society will hold its annual banquet at the Midway Cafe tonight at 7 o'clock. Chancellor Frank Strong, Dean George Shaad, and Prof. Goodwin Goldsmith are the principal speakers. Several student members also will speak. The dinner will be served on a strictly war menu.

The annual examination for certified public accountants will be held at the University May 15 and 17 under supervision of the department of economics and according to regulations of the state law providing for such examinations. Candidates from Oklahoma and Kansas will have their examinations.

A Good Suit "Scores" To Your Advantage
And right now up on old Mount Oread, there's many a good scout cramming away in those Halls of Learning who, if judged by his clothes, would fail to qualify for the "bush league."
CLOTHES do not make the man—that's positive! But good ones certainly come through strong as an "assist."
Wearing such clothing as is produced by
Kirschbaum Sampeck and Stratford Line
shows taste and good judgment on the part of the wearer —one of the things that help him to break into the "majors."

Dozen K. U. Students Qualify for Licenses In Wireless Service
Inspector Compliance School On Showing Made in Competitive Test
One Woman Is In the List
Katherine Oder First Woman West of Cincinnati to Have First Grade Papers
Twelve University of Kansas students qualified for licenses in the commercial radio service at examinations held yesterday at Kansas City, Kan. One of the twelve is Katherine Oder, c'21, of Lawrence. She made the first grade, and is the first woman in the radio service. Three other women tried for the qualification. Twenty in all took the examinations.
Qualifying for this license gives the right to take charge of any wireless station, sea or land. Licenses will be given by June 1 and students will be ready for service. This does not mean, however, that the holders of the licenses are subject to call from the government. They are certified wireless operators and may enter any branch they wish.
SPEED AND THEORY TESTS GIVEN
The examination consisted of two tests : the speed tests of high rate which is 20 words a minute and the lower rate of 12 words a minute. The average rate of sending is 12 words a minute. The other test was a complete theoretical examination on wire less apparatus and radio law.
Two grades were given in the speed tests. Six of the Kansas students received grade one and the other six were placed in grade two. Those in grade one are Katherine Van, Van E. Meek, R. E. Stimmer, H. E. Clark, Lawrence Clark and Willis Beltz. Beltz had his license renewed. Those getting second grade were Alfred Louis Patynes, Edward Todd, Lee Klima, Thomas Troughton and Richard Tatum. The second grade is just as good as the first except that the holders qualified for the lower speed.
PLACES OPEN FOR WOMEN
Besides the twelve applicants from the University, there were two from Manhattan, one from Wesleyan College at Salina and others from scattering schools. Radio Inspector C. E. Edwards from Detroit was well pleased with the showing made by the students. He had examined fifteen in St. Louis the day before and every one failed to pass.
The students who qualified have (Continued on page 4)
Miss Oder qualified easily in both the speed and the theoretical tests. According to Inspector Edwards places for the women will be found later in the Signal Corps. And when the call for more men in the draft is sent out women probably will be placed on the Great Lakes as operators.
K.U. Men Succeed As
Aviators—Havekors
Not One of Thirty Fails While a Third Usually do, He Writes
Out of thirty K. U. men who are at the school for aviation at Berkeley, Calif., up to the present time none has failed in the course according to a letter from Walter Havoker, president of the Men's Student Council this year, who has been training there, which was received by Chancellor Frank Strong recently. This is a rare event, as thirty to forty per cent of the students in the school fail to finish.
Havekortz says that he has been graduated from the ground school at Berkeley and will be sent to continue course at Rockwell Field, San Diego.
The buildings of the University of California are used by the student aviators. Students from practically every university in the United States are in the school, and they report that enrollment in all the universities has decreased greatly because of war conditions.
The people of California have a very patriotic spirit, according to the letter, and seem to be willing to do anything they can for the student aviators.
Sleep Spill 'Em Now On Books in Spooner
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 15, 1918.
Buried in a tumbled heap of books, oblivious to all that they or the warm world outside of them might for the time contain, she slept, and slept soundly. It was mid-afternoon in a stall of the Spooner Library reading room.
She slept an hour. Then she began to snore. That was disturbing to people round about, but no one broke up the seance. Then a nightmare came along, groans, piteous, pleading groans, profound sighs—and some one had the heart to wake the sufferer.
This happened yesterday. Library habities say it is now a daily occurrence. Casualties of the year's end tag, they are called.
The War Here and Over There
A call for 51,600 more drafted men to be sent to camps over two periods, May 20 to 24 and May 29 to June 2, in addition to about 233,000 men who will be moved to camps in the five days beginning May 25. Kawasan will send 1,000 men to Fort Logan, Colo., between May 29 and June 2.
Following the agreement between France and Germany to exchange men who had been prisoners eighteen months, England may agree to the exchange of prisoners, soldiers and civilians, who had been held three years, Lord Newton, parliamentary under-secretary to the foreign office told the House of Lords Tuesday. The numbers exchanged would be approximately equal.
Germany has sent an ultimatum to Russia, demanding financial concessions, the giving up of Moscow and other cities, and the dissolving of military units. It would practically make Russia a German province, if met.
Women serving in the Army Nurse Corps now number 9,824; 3,488 of them are in Europe or are awaiting transportation. By January 1, 1918, at least 24,000 nurses will be needed.
One billion rounds of ammunition have been bought for the training of troops in United States cantonments.
Two United States powder plants to cost $45,000,000 each are now being constructed.
The great number of flying machines in France is making an unprecedented demand for castor oil for lubrication. The United States, the second producer of castor oil in the world, is stimulating the growth of the castor oil bean in the South.
The pay of officers and men of the navy for the first year of the war is estimated at $125,000,000.
A new machine gun, believed to b superior to the Lewis or the Brown ing, has been perfected by American inventors. The gun, called the Johnson, is similar to the Browning, but has a metal belt for feeding shells into the gun and also receiving the exploded shell.
Hooray! "Pep" is Found
Special training camps for artillery officers are to be established at Camp Jackson, S. C., Camp Eustis, near Fort Monroe. Men from the third officers' training camps will be sent to Camp Jackson for field artillery instruction. Camp Eustis will be used for heavy artillery training.
What has become of "Pep"?
That is a question that has been uzzling every student at the University this year. "Pep" in former years has been one of the most popular characters in K, U. But this year he s not here, and it is not at all surriking that he should be missed.
Where is "Pep?" Is he dead? Many have taken it for granted that he is, and the Pewee Kansan, some time ago, even went so far as to make an investigation, the idea being to scoop other papers in publishing an obituary of this best known character of former years. But no obituary was published, for nothing could be learned of "Pep's" whereabouts, and it was hardly deemed advisable, out of respect to "Pep" himself, to publish an obituary until it was certain that he was actually dead.
that didn't settle the question

Social Simplicity Is Program Planned By K. U.Men and Women
(Continued on page 3)
W. S. G. A. and Student Council To Cut Dress and Food Expenses Next Year
A campaign to simplify the social life of the University during the war is being undertaken by the Woman's Student Government Association and the Men's Student Council. A resolution asking the University authorities to fix the maximum price of all student parties for next year at $1.50 was adopted at the last meeting of the Men's Student Council.
A meeting for representatives of all social organizations has been called by Mrs. Eustace Brown, adviser of women, for Thursday night, at 7:15 o'clock in Room 101, Fraser Hall. The need for simplification of University affairs will be discussed and plans considered for next year.
The council of the W. S. G. A. at its meeting Tuesday night voted to co-operate with the men in the attempt to have this price adopted by the University. No food at any dance, no reservations served at fraternity calls, closing hour at 12 o'clock for dresses, no formal parties, no evening dress for either men or women at parties or other University affairs, and one down-town dance for social organizations, are in the conservative program adopted by the W. S. G. A. last night.
Prep School Athletes To Show Skill Here in Invitation Track Meet
Silver Cup to Be Awarded Winning Team—Medals for Men Taking Places
Athletes from high schools in the state who made good showing at the state interscholastic meet here May 3 will be invited as guests of the K. U. Athletic Association to enter and compete in the annual K. U. Invitation Meet to be held here on McCook Field Saturday. Only the Northeast, Central, Westport, and Manual high schools of Kansas City, Mo., along with the Kansas City, Kansas, and Lawrence high schools will have full teams entered in the meet this year, according to Coach W. O. Hamilton.
The usual method of scoring and running-off of events will be used in this meet. J. C. Grover or "Doe" Reilly of the K. C. A. C., will act as starter for the meet. Winners of first, second, third, and fourth places in the meet will get medals, bronze being given for the last two named places and gold for first and silver for second.
The winning school will be given a large silver loving cup and the individual point winner in the meet will also be given a cup. Any athlete breaking a record for the meet also will be given a cup.
It is expected that about twenty high schools will be represented with their best material in this meet which has come to be known as the fastest meet for high schools in the country and which send only stars. Because of this the competition between them and the Kansas City schools is unusually keen.
Five thousand copies of "Oil and Gas Resources of Kansas," a new bulletin recently issued at the University by the faculty members who compose the State Geological Survey, have been exhausted and the Survey is being smothered with requests for the book without having books to meet the demand.
"We supposed five thousand copies of the bulletin would last a year," Dr. R. C. Moore, state geologist, said today. "But the supply has been exhausted in four weeks. Every mail brings in about fifty requests for bulletins and there are none left to supply." The department has few copies for use by various officers of the state, but outside of that the supply has been exhausted."
The bulletin, which is the most complete work yet done on Kansas oils and gas, is perhaps the most popular bulletin ever issued by the state. It was printed out of the University's printing fund by the state printer according to satutory provisions that permit the publication of five thousand such bulletins.
Big Call For Oil and Gas Bulletins
Crowd of 2000 People Make Farewell Parade For Departing Soldiers
Four K. U. Men Left With Quota of Eighteen for St. Louis
Four University men, William E. Hoffman, Arl H. Frost, Hilmar G. Appel and Arch M. Walters, left last night at 8:40 o'clock from the Union Pacific station for Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, Mo. There were eighteen men in this call from Douglas county.
About 2000 persons, led by the mounted police and the K. U. band, escorted the drafted men to the station. The parade started from the court house at 8:00 o'clock. The eighteen men marched between the band and the Lawrence state guard battalion. Besides the K. U. band there was a colored band composed of twenty men. The Washington Post of the G. A. R. and the Samuel Walker Post of the G. A. R. marched in the parade.
The parade marched down Massachusetts street and across the bridge to the Union Pacific depot. More than 200 cars of friends besides the large number on foot gathered on all sides of the depot to give the boys a hearty handshake and goodbye.

A discussion as to the merits of various standard brands of soap was being held in an economies class and the value of the characteristics of the soap.
"One firm advertises that its soap will float. And soap can be made that will float, and people never think of the value of floating soap when they buy it."
A student said in an undertone, "Flatten" soap has its value under certain conditions. Try finding sinkable soap next Saturday night."
An entomology student rushed up to the professor early one morning. "Oh, professor," she gushed, "there was the queercest thing on the Phi Chi porch last night. It had eight legs and was singing. What do you

The Red Cross Drive Exceeding All Hopes According to Committee
"Sight of Auction Room Woula Give the Kaiser Heart Failure"
Big Parade Started Day
$600 in Bank Before Sale Began, According to J. R. Holmes
"The Red Cross drive is booming this morning. It is exceeding our most sanguine expectations," said J. R. Holmes, who has charge of the work, this morning.
The big parade this morning at 11:00 started off the day. Immediately following the parade there was a dinner on the Presbyterian lawn. The auction started at 1:00 o'clock sharp.
Mr. Holmes is more than pleased with the way the people of Lawrence are contributing things for the sale. He said this morning before the sale: "Right now, we have nearly $600 million in new credit started. There won't be a cent expense. Everything has been donated."
Professor Allen's little son Ben has given two little white rabbits, his choiceest possessions, to the sale. Ben has them in a little white cage with red crosses on the ends and he is sure they will help kick Liser Bill. Mr. Holmes is sure they will too.
"Why if the Kaiser could look in these rooms this morning, I'm sure he would have heart-failure. Even the roosters out here, led by one large red one, are crowing their defiance of Germany and Kaiserism in lusty tones."
University May Get Retired Army Officer For Drill Next Year
Board of Administration and K U. Senate Approves This Application
Military training at the University may be under the charge of a retired federal army officer next year if the application for the detail of such an officer is favorably received by the government. The military committee of the University Senate at its meeting this week adopted a request to the State Board of Administration that it approve the application of the University for the detail of a retired army officer here for the period of the war. The Board of Administration has set its approval on the application.
If the government acts favorably on the application a reserve officers' training unit probably will be established at K. U. The United States army regulations regarding this college unit require a minimum of three hours military drill per week for all first and second year male students who are physically fit, and that the University will offer five hours of military science each semester during the remainder of the course.
The army officer if detailed to the University will be kept during the duration of the war. The University will assume responsibility for the government property necessary for the training.
Change Commencement Plans
Prof. L. E. Sisson announced a change in the commencement program today. The pharmacy banquet and reunion which was to be given on Saturday of commencement week has been changed to a breakfast for visiting alumni and the graduating class in pharmacy, at 8 o'clock Monday morning.
James Gerard, former ambassador to Germany, the Commencement Day speaker, has not announced his subject, Mr. Sisson said, but the subject of the baccalaurate speech by the Rev. Clyde McGee will be "The Heritage of Freedom."

The war; nothing else matters.
"BENEATH THE STARRY FLAG"
THE STARRY FLAG
They will come home. They will bring back the flags. Some will have fallen under those banners, but their country will never forget them. They will be remembered as they marched away, as they fought, as they died.
But the rest of that great host of five millions will tramp by in review. Washington shall see them. Woodrow Wilson will stand day after day to salute them as they pass by. The whole United States won't be able to keep back the others—and tears—as they pass by.
"And beneath the starry flag they will breathe the air again, in the freedom of their own beloved home!"
There will be monuments and memorials. North and South and East and West throughout all generations the soldiers of America shall be given the honor and the glory. Memorial Day then—when the world is free, when right has conquered might and the truth stands revealed with justice and mercy to be the guide of men in dealing with men—the soldiers of the Greatest Cause will march and all the people shall call them deliverers, and all the people shall hold them and their day blessed.
A MIGHTY VICTORY AHEAD
Our country is on the road to a mighty victory—a victory not only over our enemies in the field, but a victory over ourselves. The American people are going to conquer some of their habits of extravagance and waste, both among individuals and in the operation of financial, mercantile, and industrial machinery of the country. Another victory over ourselves will be the broadening of our commercial vision. We are going to see our opportunities to serve the world with a clearer purpose.
We are going to see more vividly the results of the neglect of our public duties as individual units of our democracy. We are going to be more efficient in every way. The great war, deplelar and horrible as it is, will make better citizens of us—will elevate our ideals, intensify our devotion to them and inspire us with a desire to render an ever-increasing service to humanity.
Once, in Texas, a visitor came upon a tall chimney, like a factory chimney, rising in an arid waste.

“Yes,” said he. “It’s old Jeff Thatcher’s well. A cyclone turned her upside down and inside out.”—Washington Star.
CAMPUS OPINION
All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. All communications less the author no states, but the editor must know who is writing the communication as evidence of the author's knowledge. Communications are welcome.
Editor of the Kansan:
Why doesn't the Kansan start a campaign to get the offices at Fraser Hall to open up before the eight o'clock classes in the morning and before the one o'clock classes in the afternoon? Ever since the class schedule was changed so the classes began on the hour instead of the half hour it has been impossible to get into these offices before the first classes in the morning and the afternoon.
The University authorities have imply required the students and the professors to get to classes a half hour before the end of their term, employees to change their schedule.
In the case of the post office, especially, this causes great inconvenience. For instance, one student mails his laundry home each week. This must be weighed each time to determine the amount of laundry the student has an eight o'clock class in the morning and a one o'clock class in the afternoon.
In order to mail this package he has to make a trip clear to the Lawrence post office or bring the package to the hill and carry it to a class in the Ad Building and then back to Fraser to mail it.
It seems to me like there is no excuse for such conditions. Those offices are for the convenience of the students, and when they cease to be that it is time that something should be done.
Certainly it is not unreasonable to ask that those offices be opened at least ten or fifteen minutes before the first classes. It may be a little late for such a schedule to be adopted this year, but it could be done. If it was not dated this year, it should be started with the opening of one next year.
What do the Kansan and other stu-
dents on the hill think about it?

CONTEMPORARY OPINION
UNIVERSITIES AND THE WAR
There has come a feeling, more and more intense as summer approaches, that the coming months will put the war-time position of the American university to the acid test of real national service. Where a year ago college men poured by the thousands into military camps and naval training stations, today universities have no such offering to make. Their students, on the whole, are young or physically unfit men. Their problem is to effectively train these men for the needs of the future. This is the test; it can be met in two ways.
In the first place, the university should provide proper military training for those students who will sooner or later enter active service. The Harvard R. O. T. C. has accomplished this in a way which leaves little to be desired. In this direction Harvard has surely fulfilled its obligations.
In the second place, the university should provide a maximum of educational training. During the college year Harvard has done this. Plans for the summer months, however, fall short of the attainment of this standard. The long vacation, with provisions for only a limited summer school course, offers a serious obstacle to the men who desire to go as far as possible in college before asking their country's call. In the times of war there is therefore need (as has been suggested) of an all-year college term, or of an intensive summer school. The equipment is at hand, which in any case should not be kept idle. Proper instruction would no doubt be provided by members of the faculty. The whole plan entails such an economy and such a real service, that it must necessarily meet with the consideration of the university.
We cannot be satisfied with a college life which is but veneered with superficial war activity. The American university must come down to the grim reality of giving its all and doing its utmost toward the final victory.—Harvard Illustrated.
HAS THE WAR BEGUN FOR YOU?
A year ago, graduate of this school was asked the question, "What do you want to make of yourself?" Answer was: "I first intend to make a MAN out of myself." The graduate has made a man of himself. He is at present at home sacrificing a college education in order to help educate his younger brother and sister. He is in the draft, he subscribes
to all Red Cross benefits, and is a purchaser of Liberty Bonds. The war has begun for him, as he not only does his bit but keeps on doing his share. For many of the high school students the war has not begun.
We cannot call them slackers, as they are patriotic, but they have not begun to realize the importance of the struggle in Europe, or the importance of maintaining the upkeep of the morale of the soldiers.
In the colleges men taking general courses are being drafted into the army, while those who are training themselves with a goal and a definite purpose, such as engineers, doctors, etc., are being trained to finish their purposes, for they are of the kind of men that the government will want after the war.
For the majority of the seniors the war has begun, mostly, because of their sudden awakening and the realization of what they must be after the war is over. This has been brought about by their graduation this spring. Let us then be realmers of that realization that we are involved in a great devastating war, which we must wn, and that we must also prepare ourselves to meet the great problems that will confront us after the war—Harvard Lampoon.
The Germans do not believe in reproiciomy. Since the Allies have started raiding parties of their own, the brave enemy would call it quits on both sides. "It is cruel, wanton, destructive," they are saying.
STOP THE AIR RAIDS?
When the war began, the Zeppelin were heralded as the greatest invention of the age, as the one way by which the controversy would be won. The raids on the English coast were considered moral victories, and celebrations were in order to restore the wastess of helpless women and children. Nothing was thought then, of the cruelty, the wantonness, the destructiveness.
The German attitude is curiously childish. Germans do not know how to play the game fairly. They remind one of the two brothers, one a big lad of twelve, the other a baby of five. The mother asked the elder why he did not share part of his candy with his brother, why he was not fair. "I don't have to be fair," was the answer. "I'm bigger."
When Germany was bigger and more powerful, she did not know how to be fair. Now that the Allies have grown up to be quite as big and powerful, she would still like to play the game according to her own changing rules. But the time for that is past. Germany showed us how to break rules. "It shall go hard, but we will better the instruction."
We will stop the air raids, yes—when the war is over.—Michigan Daily.

Food Administrator Tells How It Is Possible to Eat Candy and Still Be a Patriot.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 14
—(Special)—it is possible to eat candy and satisfy your sweet tooth and still be a patriot. Food administrator Hoover, in a formal statement today, said:
“There are at least four groups of candy made from absolutely whole, unprocessed nuts. The first includes chocolate and cocoa candies with centers of nuts, fruits, fruit paste, marmalades, and fushihi chocolate creams with the bitter coating, and the uncoated soft candy with the unprocessed Turkish pastes similar varieties.
"The second group includes 'hard boiled candies,' such as lemon drops, stick candy, 'fruit tablets,' peanuts, cranberries, grapes, nut and the like, containing a large portion of corn sirup, and molasses candies. Minimise the third group, being made with corn sirup, corn starch and gelatin, and only a small per cent of soy sauce. Plain, toasted, dipped in chocolate or rolled in coconut oils."

Good Business?
Mrs. G—— on Tennessee Street had a room that would be empty after June 1st.
That would mean seven dollars a month she wouldn't get after the first, if----
If it hadn't been for her wise foresight in spending twenty-five cents for a Kansan FOR RENT Ad, which caught the attention of a Summer School student and rented the room!
Now she'll still get the seven per month—and it cost her only twenty-five cents to do it.

Women Are Tagging For Benefit to Help Children of France
Committee Aids French Gov ernment in Support of Fatherless Children
A score of University women were selling tickets on the campus today for the "Fatherless Children of France" Benefit which is to be given at the Bowerstock Theater, May 23, by Prof. Carl Prayer, Mrs. Herman Olcott, and Miss Helen Topping and her class of twenty-two dancing pupils. A ticket stand was maintained all day in Fraser Hall.
Prof. Carl Preyer, the featured pianist, will play several numbers. Professor Preyer is one of America's foremost pianists, and as instructor in piano at K. U. is known to practically every student. Mrs. Herman Olcott, wife of Coach "Boe" Olcott, is also a member of the fine arts faculty. Before she came to Kansas she was a concert singer in New York. MISS TOPPING'S PARTNER WILL DANCE
MISS TOPPING FARTHERMAN
The student body will be represented in the entertainment by Miss Helen Topping, f. a 17, and her dancing pupils, most of them University women. Miss Topping, who now lives in Kansas City, was well known for her aesthetic dancing while on the Hill, and since her graduation she has studied at the Kansas City School of Ballet. Clye Farmsworth, Miss Topping's dancing partner, will appear with her.
All proceeds will go to the "Fatherless Children of France Fund," for the adoption and support of French war orphans. The French government is starguarding under the financial burden of the war, and can allow the little children of her dead soldier heroes only ten cents a day to live upon. This small sum is not sufficient to feed and clothe a child; and the "Fatherless Children of France" organization makes it possible for Americans to become "god-parents" to these innocent victims of the war.
DESTINES OF THE WAVE
NOW SUPPORTING 150 ORPHANS
NOW SUPPORTING 100 ORPHANS
One hundred and fifty war orphans are now being partially supported by Lawrence people, at a cost of $36.50 per child, yearly. The movement to "adopt an orphan," which was launched in Lawrence two years ago, has had loyal support here, and this benefit is expected to provide additional funds.
The committee in charge of the organization has the following members: Chairman, E. W. Murray; secretary, Mrs. F. R. B Daining; treasurer, Mrs. R. C. Morrow; Miss Edith Snow, Miss Rose Morgan, Mrs. R. D. O'Leary, W. S. Johnson, Miss May Gardner, Miss Esther Wilson, Miss Amida Stanton, Miss Margaret Lynn, D. L. Patterson, and Blaine F. Moore.

Hooray "Pep" Is Found
The Pewee's investigation disclosed nothing. It did, however, assemble a reasonably authentic history of "Pep's" disappearance, and it might be well to give in full here the report of the investigating committee, which traced down every clew that might lend any light to the solution of the mystery.
(Continued from page|1)
"Pep' was first missed," says the committee's report, "at the opening football game last fall. We knew the minute it started that 'Pep' was not at the game. We were a bit surprised, but not worried, for we felt sure that 'Pep' would be back for the Nebraska and Missouri games.
obserbs and masons.
"Time went by and finally the Nebraska rally came, but as soon as it started we knew that 'Pep' was not in the crowd. It would have been a livier crowd if he had been. Surely, we thought, 'Pep' will be in the bleachers tomorrow to cheer the boys on.
"PEP" FAILS TO SEE GAME
"PEP" FAILS TO SEE GAME
"The next day the game was called,
but as soon as it started we knew,
that what we had begun to fear was
that "Pep" was not with us this year. He was gone. We knew that. Where had he gone? We didn't know that. We just knew he was."
"And so ever since we have been inquiring about 'Pep' and wondering where he could be. We have strongly suspected that he was dead, and many times have felt like putting on mourning for him, but we did not put it on, for we were not sure that he was dead. To determine whether he was dead or not this committee was appointed to investigate. The committee has a most interesting and thorough investigation and has arrived at the following conclusions: 1. 'Pep' is not here this year. 2. We don't know where he is."
Thus the investigation ended, but regarding the whereabouts of "Pep" we were no wiser than when it began. All that the committee reported we had known even before it was appointed. So we gave the problem up, and decided that, for the time being, it could not be solved.
"PEP" FINALLY LOCATED At last, however, the mystery has been solved. "Pep" has been found. And the surprising thing about it all is that it should even have a mystery. We should have now all along where "Pep" had gone. But somehow we were just thoughtless or stupid, and it remained for one of the boys who has gone to France to write back after we had written him that "Pep" was not here, and inform us regarding the
whereabouts of "Pep." Of course we should have known it. But we didn't stop to think. Following is the letter of the K. U. Summie written from ever there in the trenches:
"I am surprised," the letter reasns, "that you should have expected 'Pep' to be back in school this year. I am even more surprised and not a little disappointed that when you missed him you ever had any doubts in a time like this as to where he would be. 'Pep' has enlisted, 'and is in the trenches doing his duty with the boys over here."
NEW TASKS MORE IMPORTANT
"When war was declared, 'Pep' was the first one to enlist. He went with the first of the boys to march away and he is in till the end of the war 'Pep' could never have been content to remain behind when there was such important work as the war on hand, for just now he is needed more over here than he is at K. Ur
"It is true that while he is away from K. U. the Cornhuskers may plow down the gridiron for a victory as often as they meet the Varsity, and the Tiger's tail may go untwisted till the war is over, but that makes little difference. Just now the hosts of the Kaiser have to be rolled back, and the twisting business must wait while we give some attention to Kultur.
"But when this war is over and peace is restored 'Pep' will be back in the University doing his duty just as he used to do it in the old times, and just as he is doing it now in the war."

To Lose
In a pathetic note to the Kansan, a professor with every nerve jangled to insensitivity, who hasn't heard the birds singing this spring and doesn't know that the lilies have bloomed and that the roses are budding, begs that the lamenting lay of all his tribe be made known to the world.
It seems his students have been warring all concomitant associations of war all through the year and have paid too little attention to regular work. And, consequently, he feels a little more than usual the burden of going on with a century's rectitudinal labor and Laving.
He disclaimed the poet's corner and admitted ineligibility to the Kansan's prize poem contest. The news editor claimed the copy and forthwith attached the wall of the erudite to the story that explains it:

Strong Nebraska Team Is Coming to McCook For Track Meet Friday
Date of Meeting Changed to Avoid Conflict With High Invitation Meet
Laws Stay Over to Compete
Two of Uncle Jimmie's Men Remain for Meet After Finishing School Work
Strenuous practice is the program this week for the Jayhawker track squad in preparation for the annual meet with Nebraska which will be held Friday afternoon on McCook Field. The date of the meet was changed from Saturday with the consent of the Nebraska management because the K. U. High School Invitation Meet is scheduled here for Saturday.
The two athletes who were in the University School of Law and who had planned to go home to work on the farm, have been persuaded to remain for the meet with Nebraska. Lobaugh, as well as Rice will be here, according to present indications. Lobaugh is a fast dash man, a quarter miler, and a relay man. Rice is the high jumper and has been working out with the discus recently.
NEBRASKA HAS STRONG TEAM
Nebraska has a strong track team this year; much stronger than usunl. The Cornhuskers have not the great team that the University of Missouri has, but the team from Nebraska probably will make the meet Friday one of the most interesting ones the K, U, team has entered.
Nebraska has a great dash man in McMahon, who recently did the 220-yard dash in 22 seconds. McMahon is also touted as a 10-second runner in the 100-yard dash. He has been the minstay in the meets thus far this year. Nebraska beat Ames by a 2-to-1 ratio early in the season on a muddy field, and later Ames lost to Missouri by nearly the same score. By this dope Kansas has little chance to win.
The Cornhuskers have a fine vaulter in Gerhart, who is said recently to have cleared the bar in practice at 11 feet 6 inches. Howard of Kansas has done 11 feet 3 inches and probably is cannable of better in a pinch.
RELAY RUN AT WINTER MEET
The Nebruska relay team has beaten K. U. this year, cleaning up on the Kansans in the K. C. A. C. meet in Convention Hall. The time was faster than that made by the University of Missouri relay team in the same meet.
Grum is the half miler of the Nebraska track team and he is a fairly good 880-yard man, but Murphy should be able to beat him. It seems likely now that Davison has left school for good because the School of Law has finished its work for this year. This leaves only Murphy in the half.
GRAF FAST DISTANCE MAN
Graf is considered a fast mile and 2-mile man, and should take first in both of these from the K. U. runners. Graf runs the 2-mile race in 9:40 which is remarkably fast time, and about a minute to two minutes faster than anything the Kansas runners have done this season. This fast athlete makes the first mile in better time than the average mile man.
Finley is the hurdler for the nor-
terners and he should have little
trouble in winning first from Hobart,
who did not place in the hurdles in
the Missouri meet last week. In the
quarterfinals, he beat the other
currier-miler, but McMahon is
expected to run in this event besides
the shorter dashes.
Kansas may enter two men in the pole vault in the Nebraska meet, for Armin Barteldes, a Lawrence man who is eligible, is working out daily in this event and has gone as high as 10 feet 3 inches. It is doubtful if this height will place the Nebraska man is in condition.
Two pigs of the Duroc variety sainted down Fourteenth Street last week at the close of 3 o'clock classes. Their meandering were disturbed by the arrival of a small boy who endeavored to head them off on their aimless career.
The pigs started headlong for the K. U. shoe shop, but the pavement was wet. One slipped into the storm sewer. And yet the country tries to Hooverize!

Valley Tennis Tournament Called Off for This Year
There will be no Missouri Valley tennis tournament this year, W. O. Hamilton, coach of athletes at the University of Kansas, said today. There are only three teams in the Valley district—Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma—that are playing tennis this season. It was doubtful if the University of Oklahoma could get together a team in time to send it to the tournament which was to have been held May 25.
Because there was no hope of getting more than three teams to enter the tourney it had to be postponed, for a ruling provides that there must be four teams entered before the tournament becomes a Missouri Valley affair. The only match K. U. will play this year besides some matches with Kansas City, Mo., teams is the one scheduled to be played Saturday afternoon on the McCook Field courts with the University of Missouri.
Baseball Nine Leaves Tonight For Ames, Ia., To Play Three Games
Jayhawkers Must Fight Hard to Beat Ames Out of Second Place
the Varsity baseball team will leave at 8:40 o'clock tonight for Ames, In., where it will play a series of three games with the Iowa Agnies for second place in the Missouri Valley championship race. Ames played here two weeks ago and broke even in their two games with the Jayahawk-
The Kansas lineup will be weaker on this trip than in the Ames games here, but Coach Jay Bond's men expect to give the Aggies a hard fight for the series.
The Kansas linee line probably again will be changed, as Weltner will not make the trip and Isenberg probably will not be able to get into the game until the second day, because of heavy work in the School of Medicine.

in the infield in practice, sprained an ankle Tuesday afternoon, but will be able to play against Ames. Willethmey, an outfielder, who played on the freshman team last year and has been out for the Varsity, probably will be taken along to play in the outfield in case Keeler is sent to second.
Bum undoubtedly will catch all the games against the lowans, and either Cherry or Cooper will be used on first base. Isenberger will cover second at least in the second and third games, Foster will play the shortstop position and Lonborg will play third.
Oyster, Schoepeel and Cherry,
Keeler or Wilhelmmy hold down the outfield positions. Goodwin, Schoepeel, Slawson, and Cherry will make up the pitching staff.
Ames will furnish real competition for the Jayhawkers and Coach Bond's men will have to play in top form to win. The Iowans have lost four of their six games to Missouri, but many of the games were lost on errors and every one was hard fought. Those won by the Tigers were by close scores.
The Iowa Aggies have an excellent pitching staff in Greenlee, Plugge and DeForest, for both Greenlee and DeForest pitched well in their games iere and Plugge is said to be the most consistent winner on the staff. But f Kansas plays well in the field and Foster, Lonborg, Cherry, Bunn and the others start hitting, Ames is liable o have to fight.

The Kansas tennis team is in shape and ready for the Missouri team which will be here Saturday, May 18. The tennis matches will probably have to be held at the same time as the high school invitation track meet.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 16, 1918.
The courts will be in fine shape i it does not rain before Saturday Matthews and Skaer are working hard every day to be in the best of condition for the matches. Captain Kenneth Ubls will be down Friday or Saturday and make final arrangements for the meet.
The War Here and Over There
A new plan for using in necessary war factories and industries the drifted men who were given a deferred classification because of dependents, has been laid before President Wilson by the provost marshal's office. The draft age would not be extended, and men would be amply paid for their work. Plans are being made for substituting men physically unfit for warfare for those who are fit, but are now in non-combatant positions.
Here and Over There
The total of American casualties to the present time is 5,788. This includes killed in action, 715; died of wounds, 175; died of disease, 1044; died of accident, 237; died from other causes, 63; severely wounded, 492; slightly wounded, 2,800; unclassified wounded, 8; missing in action and prisoners, 254.
The somewhat prevalent idea that Germans interned in America are fed on the best of foods has been corrected. They are fed on regular garrison rations as required by international law.
The United States Civil Service Commission has issued a call for thousands of women to be used in not less than sixty different kinds of work, chiefly in Washington.
Three German airplanes were shot down by American aviators Wednesday in the Toul sector. Five American aviators were given the French war cross.
A million orphans in France has been one result of the war.
Because American shoes proved unsatisfactory for wear in the trenches, American soldiers in France are wearing English boots.
The demand for, Y. M. C. A. workers for overseas duty is a force large enough to make a need for recruiting about 1,000 men a month and more than 100 women.
No mail from this country other than first class is being sent into Belgium by a recent order of the War Department.
Alumni Engineers Plan Improvement of Shops
Will Meet Commencement Week To Consult With Faculty
Graduates of the School of Engineering will meet at the University June 1 to discuss the rebuilding of Fowler Shops. Since the destruction of the Shops they have begun to take an active interest in the rebuilding of the shops and making a better School of Engineering.
The graduate engineers will confer with the professors of the department, to formulate plans for getting new electrical equipment for the school, more professors, and better laboratory conditions. The professors plan to have some definite ideas to set before the alumni of the school, and then it is planned that the alumni will go to the legislature and endeavor to get an appropriation to cover the improvements.
Mrs. Eustace Brown, chairman of the joint committee on student interests, has deemed it unnecessary, unless the student body desires it, to have the meeting called for tonight of the representatives of the various student organizations to consider the regulation of social affairs under war conditions. Mrs. Brown has called off this meeting because of the action taken by the two councils concerning the matter.
No Meeting—Mrs. Brown
Any Man Who Has Experience On Farm Should Do That Again
U. S. Government Asks All College Students To Work This Summer
Students Should Not Loaf
Prof. Dains Will Assist K. Men and Women to Get Patriotic Jobs
The United States government is asking all college students not engaged in war work this summer to enroll in the collegiate section of the Public Service Reserve, according to a bulletin recently sent out by the Department of Labor.
"This summer every healthy college student who is not receiving military training ought to be at work. Hard physical work is the best recreation a student can get, and while our country is at war it is a disgrace for any one who can work to spend his time 'n idleness or play.
"Every man who has ever done any work on a farm owes it to his country and to our allies to work on a farm this summer. The world is short of food. American farms must supply the demand. Those who can be of no use on the farms can find other valuable work. The college student should not expect or ask for anything very glorious in the way of summer vacation service. Conditions surrounding farm work and "common labor" are not particularly attractive, and the work is hard, yet by serving the government the laborer is doing his utmost.
The bulletin says:
nth忠诚.
"Primarily the duty to find a place to meet the rests with the student himself. The Government is ready to help him find a chance to work. It will find places for many students; the others should use their own initiative and find places for themselves."
An officer has been appointed in each college in the country to look after this work. Dr. F. B. Dainis is in charge of the work here at the University. Any student wishing to enroll for service should see him at once. The service will have positions ready for the men as soon as they leave college if they desire.
U. S. War Department Planing to Instruct Men Attending College
Plan Intended to Develop Mi itary Asset and Prevent Depletion of Colleges
F. M. Zeigler To Fly
Miss Topping to Dance "A Summer Day"Ballet At Children's Benefit
F. M. Zeigler, assistant in the department of geology, has been ordered to report on May 25, to Austin, Tex., where he will enter the aviation ground school. Mr. Zeigler will leave Lawrence Friday for Austin.
This new policy aims to develop as a great military asset, the large body of young men in the colleges and to prevent unnecessary depletion of the colleges through indiscriminate volunteering, by offering to the students a definite and immediate military status.
The University committee on military training is considering the advisability and possibility of military instruction for all men students of the University. The Secretary of War has authorized the statement that a comprehensive plan will be put into effect by the War Department to provide military instruction for college students, beginning with the next college year.
Military instruction under officers and non-compromission officers of the army will be provided in every institution of college grade that enrolls 100 or more ablebodied students more than 18 years old. The necessary military equipment will, as far as possible, be provided by the government. Enlistment will be purely voluntary, but all students over the age of 18 will be encouraged to enlist.
The enlistment will then make the student a member of the United States Army, liable to active duty at the call of the President. It will be the policy of the government not to call the members of the training units to active duty before they have reached the age of 21.
Class of Twenty-two Pupils Rehearsing to Appear In Program

Theater, May 23
Daily rehearsals are now being held by Miss Helen Topping's dancing class of twenty-two pupils in preparation for the benefit for the fatherless children of France which is to be given at the Bowersock Theater a week from tonight, Thursday, May 23. The University Orchestra of eighteen pieces, under the direction of Prof. F. E. Kendrie, will play for the dances, and for some of the other numbers on the program. Mrs. Herman Olcott and Prof. Carl Preeyer are the other featured soloists.
HELEN TOPPING
Who will lance in the benefit for the fatherless? France
M. R. KING
The first number of Miss Topping's program is a barefoot ballet entitled "A Summer Day," using music by Raimainoff and Leybach. Sixteen dancers take part. The "Day" is depicted from the dawn to the darkest hour before the succeeding one.
By special request, little Lena Seibert, who made a distinct hit at Miss Topping's Red Cross Benefit last year, will repeat her "Mimut in G." She will also appear in two other numbers. Betty Jane Fox, another of Miss Topping's Kansas City pupils, will appear in two numbers.
Three Teams Entered For Invitation Meet
Miss Topping is to dance "Spring's
Greeting," to a solo sung by Miss
Margaret Hodgson. Clyde Farnsworth, Miss Topping's dancing partner . . . appear with her in an "Adangio" to Massenet's "Meditation"
from "Thaas."
Patronesses at the benefit will be:
Mrs. Anna Shanklin, Mrs. E. H.
Brown, Miss Margaret Lynn, Mrs. E.
O. Perkins, Mrs. E. W. Murray,
Mrs. Wm. Hutson, Mrs. J. A. Farrell, Mrs. D. F. Doane, and Mrs. F. B. Daines. The proceeds of the entertainment are to go to the Fatherless Children of France fund.
Only three entries of track teams for the invitation high school meet to be held on McCook Field Saturday had been received up to noon today, according to Coach W. O. Hamilton. The three teams whose entries have been received are Westport and Central of Kansas City and Valley Falls, Kansas.
The Olympic Society has charge of entertaining the high school athletes during their stay in Lawrence. They will be sent to the various fraternity houses on their arrival Friday night.
The small children in Miss Topping's class will appear in a Greek Ball Dance, and in the final ballet, which is to music by Delibes, from "Compella."
Several other schools are expected to enter teams, including Northeast High of Kansas City, Mo., Lawrence, Topeka, and Kansas City, Kan. Several individual stars of the state meet which was held here May 4 have been invited and are expected to be here. Among them are: Pringle of Harveyville, Lamb of Belle Plain, Matthews of Kincaid, and Hawley of Iola.
Many Regular Courses Given in Summer Session
The regular work in histology, embroiology, anatomy, and neurology, will be offered in the summer school session, for the medical students, histology and anatomy will be given during the entire ten weeks, and embryology and neurology will be offered only during the first six weeks. Other courses given which belong to the medical course, are medico-erbitrology and medico-therapeutic chemistry, and medico-chemistry. There will be a six weeks' course in patheology, given in the summer session at Rosedale.
Plain Tales From The Hill
One question which is troubling University students in considering the rejection of the six-day plan is whether or not the overworked student will go to school on that extra study-work-laboratory day (Saturday), according to the "sun" time or according to the war-summer-saving-hour later plan.
Visitor (after viewing the campus): "But I don't think that it's right to post those advertisements of dances and such things on that man's monument."
K. U. student: "Which monument?"
V. : "That one at the entrance to the campus, where the walk divides."
PROF. WAKE'S 'EM UP
A professor yesterday dismissed his astronomy class for fifteen minutes in order to wake up the attentive students.
UXTREE! UXTREE! UXTREE!
The supply of Daily Kansans containing the full account of the lowering of Professor Dykstra's roof has been exhausted, and no more copies of the paper containing this story can be obtained at the business office of the Kansan.
GENE COMES BACK
Telegraphic reports from Kansas City wish to announce the return to Lawrence Saturday of Eugene Dyer, former news editor and editor-in-chief of the University Daily Kansas, now on the telegraph desk of the Kansas City Star. He is also a member of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalism fraternity. Mr. Dyer's rise in journalism has been rapid, advancing from a reporter on the Star on which job he started last February to a responsible position on the telegraph desk of the paper.
He will visit friends in this city.
Fowler Shops Ready Soon for Wooden Roof
First-Floor Machinery Has Been Cleaned And Oiled
Convocation Starts Red Cross Campaign At University Monday
Fowler Shops is rapidly being cleared of rubbish and ashes and will soon be ready for the new temporary roof. The first floor has been cleaned up and the machinery polished until one can scarcely detect that it was almost a pond of water a few days ago. Ten to fifteen men are at work and the trash is being shoveed out the south side of the building and hauled away.
Material for the roof will probably be purchased in Lawrence, since local lumber dealers are able to furnish the necessary kinds of lumber.
Maj. W. W. Davis Reviews Regiment In Dress Parade
the University of Kansas regiment formed in battalion dress parade Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock before Major W. W. Davis. The band played the companies into formation, the adjutant posting the guards and Major Davis acting as reviewing officer. The entire regiment was used in battalion formation.
Men's Glee Club To Sing
The Men's Glee Club will sing at the next convocation, which will probably be held next week. The club has practically finished the work for the year and gave a number of successful concerts. Twenty-four men have qualified for Glee Club pins. The last rehearsal of the season will be held Tuesday, and at this time the manager will be elected for next year.
Henry M. Beardsley, Widely Known Kansas City Man, To Speak
Ask Pledges Immediately
Minimum
No Definite Amount Set for Students—Committee Has Minimum
The campaign for the University will be started Monday, May 20, the first day of the week set aside for the national drive. An all University convolution is called for Monday at 4 o'clock in the gymnasium at which Henry M. Beardsley of Kansas City will speak.
The Red Cross Extension Committee for Douglas County has made the University a separate unit and placed the matter of raising the University's share of the $100,000-000 in the hands of the University War Committee.
ASK PLEDGES MONDAY
Immediately following Mr. Beardley's address, pledge cards with envelopes will be distributed and collected immediately. In as far as possible it is requested that all pledges for students and faculty be made at this time and that payment in full accompany the pledge. The pledge card, and if possible the payment, is to be placed in the envelope, the envelope sealed and passed back to the usher. Official receipts for all payments will be made out and placed at the Registrar's office Tuesday noon, together with Red Cross badges.
No definite quota has been assigned the University. Realizing that campaigns of this nature are to be conducted at more or less regular intervals during the war, the city committee has attempted to establish a systematic basis for the minimum subscription at the time. The basis is made one-tenth of one per cent of the assessed valuation of each tax payer's property or one-tenth of one per cent of a year's salary for people on a salary, and for University faculty a minimum amount is set at one-tenth of one per cent of the sum of any assessed valuation plus the annual salary. For example, a man having property assessed at $2,000 and a salary of $2,000 is requested to give not less than $4 at this time.
STANDARD FOR STUDENTS For students the committee has fixed a minimum of one-tenth of one per cent of what the student considers is his yearly allowance. In case of students working their way through the University the amount may be as low as twenty cents. It is understood that this is merely to fix the low limit. An effort will be made to see that not a single member of the University, student, faculty, or other employees fail to give as much as possible. An unusual response at the convection will greatly lighten the labor of the finance committee.
STANDARD FOR STUDENTS
Quick Sales for Red Cross
Chickens, Live Stock, and Squirrels Help to Raise Funds
And the chickens! All the coops in the countryside must have been raided. Visions of chicken-pie loomed irresistibly and bidders bid almost unconsciously. There were panting cocks, game fowl, sedate hens with broods, pulllets, frys and setters. One hen so thoroughly caught the spirit of the day that she contributed one fresh egg.
A veritable menagerie, stock farm, and chicken ranch combined, along with innumerable odds and ends were sold and resold at the Red Cross auction sale on West Ninth street yesterday afternoon. Among the animals were found pigs, rabbits white and brown, one young moo cow, several wagley calves, a squirrel in a revolving cage, Shetland ponies, puppies, each seeming glad and willing to help in the good cause.
Lusty throated auctioneers sold the goods and experienced little trouble in obtaining bids.
Germany is using nettle fiber for spinning thread because of the scarcity of raw cotton.

Published in the afternoon five times a week, by students of the University of Kansas, from the press of the Department of Journalism.
The Dally Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of a doctor, for further than merely printing the news about a university, to play no favor in university holds; to play no favor in be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous to be brave and to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the University, to help the students of the University.

AN R O T C FOR K I.
The war; nothing else matters.
With all the officers' training camps closed to men from the University of Kansas because the University has no course in military training that is recognized by the Government, University authorities are to be commended for their efforts to get a branch of the R. O. T. C. established here next year.
This will enable the men who are enrolled at the University to feel justified in remaining in school. They will be able to feel that if continuing their education they are not shirking the responsibilities thrust upon them by the war, since at the same time they will be preparing themselves for the highest kind of service when the nation has need for them.
With a branch of the R. O. T. C. located at K. U., men who are waiting their draft call will be able to take training to fit them for the military work which the government will call upon them to perform. Men below the draft age will also be able to take the training, and when they reach the draft age will be trained and ready to render the maximum of service in the shortest length of time after being called.
This plan, if adopted, will be the greatest step taken by the University to prepare its students to do their part in the war. With the Government planning an army of from three to five million men, there will be a great demand for officers. The Government desires to secure as these officers as many educated and trained men as possible. This plan will enable the University to offer its men to the Government to fill the places for which college men should be prepared.
With an R. O. T. C. here the problem of military drill for the University will be solved. The units will be officered throughout by army officers, and all of the equipment will be furnished by the Government. It will be conducted on the plan worked out for all of the R. O. T. C.'s throughout the country, and will do away with the imperfections existent in the present plan of drill.
It is the University's one big opportunity to assume its just share of responsibility in preparing its men to do their part in 'winning the war.
ALL IN IT
When the marching orders come to a k. R. U. R. T. C. they must be for every last able bodied man who comes up the Hill next September. Not one shall get "exemption" or take tennis or climb trees or go fishing in place of the military training.
Be it understood, therefore, that
his R, O. T, C. is not a measure for physical exercise to promote health, although it undoubtedly will incidentally do all this, but is first and last a military obligation, a military training for military purposes of a state and nation confronted by grave necessity. There are no excuses. The discipline must be rigid. Men shall obey it or get out and go back where they came from. Kansas doesn't want them. K. U. doesn't want them. The United States doesn't want them if they fail in the primary duty of today. They will just have to sneak out of sight.
The uniforms will be here, the guns will be here, and the U. S. officers will be here. Get into the uniforms, take the guns, and convince those officers what sort of men Kansas makes for their country. All the year through, no kiddish "cuts," no substitutions, no thought except for the big thing that must be done. Freshmen and sophomores of course will be in it. They will be beginning. But junior and seniors sooner to see service must be there too. Studies will be done in addition. All must be done. And the man who fails to come up to the measure of next year's whole big job gets a slacker's emblem.
So when the University is in uniform and under arms and a sweet young things in serge coat and white flannel breeches struts across the top of Oread there will be a reaction. He will need wings. He will need speed. And it won't be safe for him to come back.
But there won't be any question about discipline. All in it, all for their own biggest and best interests and their country's—there won't be any administrative problem of getting men to do their duty. They will do it out of their hearts and with their wills. And they will make the great duty apply to every man in their reach. This is what army men all MORALE!

CAMPUS OPINION
It is getting very tiresome to be continually losing belongings such as hats, gloves, and overcats, especially when those articles have been taken from the same individual in the same semester from various cloakrooms and halls in the buildings on the campus.
Editor of the Kansan.
A green Borsalino hat was taken this morning from the cloakroom in Spooner Library between the hours of nine and eleven. The initials of the owner are stamped in the hatband, and the name and address of the owner are placed in the lining, and also written on inside of the band, itself.
Whether such articles of clothing are taken by mistake or intentionally is hard to determine, but when an innocent person discovers that he has some article that does not belong to him he should, at least, try to find the owner and inform him of the whereabouts of his property.

Jayhawkers Will Meet Ames Cyclones Today In First Game There
Kansas Must Win Ames Series To Get Into Valley Conference Race
The University of Kansas baseball nine will line up against the Ames Cyclones at Ames, In., this afternoon in the initial game of a three-game series. Slawson probably will be the twirling selection for K. U. He will win if the Kansas nine will give him a few runs and good support.
The Jayhawkers have been playing erratic ball in the last few games and will have to take a decided brace in the Ames series or have the cellar championship clinched by the end of this week. He's playing well, both ball club when going good, but the playing was sloppy against the Tigers last week.
The K. U. infield has shown flashes of real form at times, but they also have been consistent at booting the ball. The outfield is playing a fair game. The Kansas team looked good in its first conference game of the season and will have to do a comeback to retain this season.
Ames has a fair team this year and will put up a fight to retain their position in the conference. The Jayhawkers will win if they are going at top speed in this series.

K.U. Alumni Are Asked By County Club Union To Boost Income Bill
NUMBER 152.
Personal Letters and Literature Sent to Influential Members of Organization
Other States Are Examples
Voters Are Assured New Plat Will Promote Economy and Efficiency
The County Club Union under the management of "Jap" Glasco is sending out personal letters to influential alumni over the state asking them to bend every effort toward pushing the Permanent Income Amendment which will come before the people at the election next November. Each one who receives a letter is also sent a package of pamphlets on the subject, which he is asked to distribute.
The pamphlets, which are addressed to the voters of Kansas, say "The Permanent Income Amendment provides for a fixed limited income for the upkeep of the state schools. This limited income will be apportioned among the various state schools, and the schools will be able to work out plans to eliminate unnecessary expense. It is purely an efficient and a business proposition. It does not increase taxes—it reduces them.
"At present sixteen states have adopted the fixed limited income. In every instance the schools are run more efficiently and with less waste of money. The State Board of Administration, of which the governor of the state is chairman, will act as business manager under the fixed limited income plan, and will direct the expenditure of all money in the most efficient manner."
The appeal is made that the matter lies in the power of the University alumni who are the leaders and voters of the state and the passage of the amendment depends upon the efforts which they put forth.
Y.M.-Y.W. Give Mixer Last '18 Jollification
Lasts Hour and Half Saturday Night, so Students May Study Afterward
Entertainment has been arranged by the social committees of the two associations and an enjoyable hour and a half is promised. The mixer will close early so that students may go home and study afterwards. Light refreshments will be served.
"Dates are unnecessary at the mixer," said Dutch Wedell, secretary of the Y. M. C. A. "The mixer is for the entertainment of all students in the University and everyone is invited to attend."
All University students are invited to attend the last mixer of the year given by the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., starting at 8 o'clock Saturday night in Robinson Gymnasium. The purpose of the mixer is for students to make new friends and to meet old friends for the last time before going home for the summer.
Faculty Men to Make Commencement Talks
Fifteen Professors Will Speak at Ninety-four Kansas
Towns
The number of high school commencement addresses to be made by University faculty members this spring, has increased to 94. Last year the number was 87.
Fifteen professor will give the lectures. They are F. W. Blackmar, L. W. Burdick, H. L. Butler, G. H. Derry, C. A. Dykstra, F. R. Hamilton, E. M. Hopkins, H. G. Ingham, F. J. Kelly, W. A. McKeever, P. G. Mitchell, Arthur MacMurray, H. G. Nutt, Arvin Olin, and R. A. Schwegler. Chancellor Frank Strong will not make a commencement tour this spring because of time taken up with war work.

The surgical dressings room will be closed for the remainder of the term. It will be opened again probably June 10, when a class in the making of surgical dressings, with the course leading to a Red Cross certificate, will be held during the summer term.

The council is not a Pro-German association nor a collection of patriotic scientists conceiving a secret compound for the devastation of the Hohenzollern House. It is merely the senior laws, who rise early in the morning and work through the morning and the noon and the night hours; they work for the State Bar Examination is coming, after which a law works no more.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 17, 1918.
The brotherhood sits in a circle--4 brother propounds a question. Since no one knows the answer they look it up. Another question comes from the long list of priceless gems handed down from the quizzes of bright profs. Better luck this time. There is a chorus of answers; violent disagreement, and broiling hot discussion, during which an assembled brother casts aside an eye shade, or takes off another shoe; or discards his unnecessary, if ornamental necktie.
What one knows they will all know. The State Bar Association is going to accept or reject them as a body for differentiation will be impossible

Officials believe that between three and four million men will be placed under arms in the next year in the United States. Although no definite promises are made, it is calculated that a million and a half men will be in France by January 1.

The first unit of women farmers will sail for France for work in the Alsei district, where large tracts of land have been placed in the hands of the American committee for devastated France. Women in this unit must be over 25 years old, must have practical or college experience in agriculture, must speak French, and must be able to pay their own expenses.
The bill providing for the registration in the draft of men who have become 21 years old since last June 5, has been sent to the President for his approval. The new registrants would be placed at the last of the list in the class in which they were placed. Students in medical and theological schools would be exempt.

It is planned to train 100 chauffeurs, 60 radio operators, 40 telegraph operators, 20 blacksmith, 18 carpenters, and 12 concrete workers.
The men will be under the command of an army officer, and will be under military discipline time. It is in the quarter and quarter the men in Robinson Gymnasium.

It is the first poem published by Mr. Wattles entirely of his own authorship, and represents work of nine years. The first poem in the book was written in 1009 when he was a senior in the University.
WATTLES CALLED IN SERVICE Mr. Wattles has been placed on a tentative list of Douglas County registrants, part of whom will go into service between May 25 and 11 when he has delayed going into service because he wanted to get this volume of records into the hands of a publisher.
A commission as first lieutenant in the signal corps was open for him last summer, but he refused it in order to finish the series of poems. He was rejected from the navy radio service in an examination at Kansas City recently because of weak eyes. Hermann Hagemedorn of New York will take charge of all Mr. Wattles' writings while he is in the service.
"My friends and students have written this," said Mr. Wattles in speaking of his new work. "It is what I know of them that has gone into the book."
RELIGIOUS POEMS IN BOOK
"Lanterns For Gethsemane" is made up of mystical religious poems, and is characterized by the author as being the real work which he has tried to do. It grew out of reading, as a boy, Charles M. Sheldon's book, "In His Steps," and was strengthened by the idea of William Herbert Carruth's poem, "Each in His Own Tongue," according to Mr. Wattles.
In preparing the book, Mr. Wattles said, he must attempting to find one fundamental truth which all religions hold in common, with special reference to the contribution of Christ to these truths. It is an attempt to learn what Jesus would do when facing modern conditions. The poet brings out the idea of the manhood of Jesus and expresses his idea of what kind of a man He was.
SERIES HAS BEEN TESTED
This series has been tested not only among the critics," he wrote in the November, 1917, issue of Contemporary Verse, "but more certainly among the people, young men and women, mothers, business men and衣ed theists, devout men, and with whom no Person belonging to a given sect will like them all, yet there is no poem which has not been loved by some one; that is the only evidence I have desired."
HALF OF POEMS HAVE APPEARED More than half the poems in "Lanterns For Gethsemane" have been printed in magazines, the Outlook, Independent, Chicago Poetry, Contemporary Verse, Smart Set, and Christian Register. E. P. Dutton & Company accepted it because it was connected with the idea in "Under Fire" and "A Student in Arms," although not touching the war as directly as they do.
Students of Westport high school will present a Spanish comedy, "Los Castillos de Torres Nobles," here Saturday night.
Westport High School Will Give Spanish Play
Mr. Wattles' first poem appeared in the Independent in 1911. In the same year he with Harry Kemp and others compiled the volume, "Songs From the Hill." "Sunflowers, a Book of Kansas Poems," written by about thirty persons, was collected by Mr. Wattles and published first in 1914. The third edition of this work appeared this winter.
The play is given by a cast of fifteen, members of Circulo Calderon, the Spanish club of Westport high school. It was given in Kansas City last week.
The play will be presented in the Little Theater in Green Hall Saturday night at 7:30 o'clock. There is no admission charge, and all persons interested in Spanish are invited to attend.
A Tale of How K. U.'s Political Card Passed
No longer will posters, cards, and doodlers of K. U. politicians of squirrel prints of political enemies adorn the walks and approaches to the campus. The University Senate, it has been officially announced, at its last meeting passed a rule forbidding the display of any form of advertising bills or cards except on the regular bulletin boards of the campus.
It is not known whether the ruling was passed to save the raw-edged nerves of the superintendent of buildings and grounds or merely to cut down expense of office seekers who have to pay for removing the bills from the sidewalks.

Every day the class in Roman History learns something that strengthens the belief. Today we ascertained that Cato never kissed his wife unless it thundered, and that the famous Augustus never talked about previously having compiled a set of notes on what he intended to say.
The lecturer offered no explanation of the first surprising fact, but advanced the theory that maybe Augustus' idea was to take some precaution against getting the worst of the argument.

Secret Late Session Is Held by Committee On Military Affairs
Important Conclusions Reached Which Cannot Be Given Out Yet
Plattsburg Scholarship Up?
Now
Several Recommendations to be Handed Senate for Action
In session extraordinary until a late hour last night, the members bound not to divulge proceedings prematurely, the University committee on military affairs discussed and settled some vital considerations which will be released for publication only after it has been made to higher authority.
The application of the University for a government establishment of an R. O. T. C. here gave rise to many problems of local adjustment that will come when the government makes its decision. Those questions were through investigation and the opinion of the committee went on record.
What these immediate questions of adjustment were and what recommendations to the Senate have been given by the committee in answer to them are still matters of conjecture, but one is certain to be the extent to the corps and details of military discipline under the new order.
There is also to be settled the destination of a K. U. undergraduate who will be given a scholarship to the Junior Camp at Plattsburg this summer. But it is not known whether this business came up at last night's long committee meeting.

Kansas Will Enter Two
At Chicago Track Meet
At tase two men will be sent to the Western Conference track meet at Chicago, Ill., May 8, to represent the University of Kansas, Coach W. O. Hamilton announced today. Carl Rice, the stellar high jumper of the Jayhawker track squad this season, and Marshall Haddock, dash and weight star, will be entered in this classical meet of the Middle West which is held every year early in June. Besides these two, Coach Hamilton expects to take Paul Murphy, the veter半乳-miler of the K. U. team this season, if Murphy shows the speed he is capable of in the two remaining meets before the Western Conference meet.
Rice and Haddock Already Slated to Go—Murphy Also May Be on Team
Rice has been doing 6 feet consistently in meet this year and many K. U. fans expect him to establish a new record for the Missouri Valley by jumping 6 feet 2 inches. Haddock won third place in the pentathlon in the Penn Relay games at Philadelphia, Pa., this spring and has been doing remarkable work in the 220-yard dash and the discus throw. He is also a fast 100-yard dash man.
Zoology Club Elects Officers

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the university rather than merely print the news by standing for it. Students are told to play no favoriter; to be clean; to be cheerful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.
FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1918
PURPOSE OF THE R. O. T. C.
The war; nothing else matters.
PURPOSE OF THE R. O. T. C.
The R. O. T. C system was worked out by the Government for the purpose of preparing as many university men as possible for positions as officers in the army. The trained and educated men are the types sought to officer the military forces, and the best field for securing such men is the colleges and universities. Thus the R. O. T. C is virtually an officers' training camp. That is what the University is 'applying for in making application for an R. O. T. C at the University.
LEGALIZE THE LAWS
The Kansan regretted the spectacle of law students using the talents they acquired here to bring suit against their Alma Mater. The Kansan was patient, however, and didn't go wild with righteous indignation. Time as come for adjudication now. The year is ended for them and soon will be for the rest of the University and it is just as well to balance all outstanding accounts, grudges, and controversies.
Fact review begins last September when the Senate, powerless to institute compulsory military training went about matters indirectly and did all it could do in face of the national emergency. Physical training was required of all undergraduates five hours a week, and a proviso was added that military training might be taken voluntarily in place of the regular physical exercise. This was the only way open to the Senate to get military training in. And this way has failed.
Some men, not all of them laws, after the novelty of marching wore off, deserted the K. U. army legally by taking physical training as substitution. Then as time dragged on and physical training grew onerous, they cut that off and on. The department was without definite disciplinary measures to enforce its rules and simply had to endure great gaps in the ranks of its students. When things reached an unbearable stage this spring, the department appealed to Senate action and got a drastic ruling for delinquents.
That ruling came too late to be whoally efficacious or deserve to be, for it was without warning and extremely violent. It was like mauling a five-year-old for doing something he rather knew he ought not to do but had been permitted to do by indulgent parents for a long time. It was like fracturing the youngster's skull, not at all a reasonable punishment in consideration of the circumstances.
The defaulters from military and physical training needn't be quite forgiven, but their habits of thought
and action and the tolerance for the same should mitigate their punishment. Those who are getting degrees will soon get considerable military experience. Let the naughty boys have their degrees, then. Those who are due back next fall will come with the knowledge that they get into khaki when they get here and will be under orders of U. S. army officers empowered to enforce those orders, or they newnet come back. Let next year's intelligent response to duty atone for this year's childish negligence.
The R. O, T. C. solves the whole problem. Men will meet it like men because it is a man's unquestionable privilege, right, and duty. There will be no play about it. Reveille will awaken and taps will put to bed. And the day will be so full that sleep will be sound. In the face of this sense in program and sense in response to it, the nonsense of this year's fiasco and whatever it occasioned must be wiped off the slate. The new record of another year will tell a different story.
K. U. MUST DO ITS UTMOST
K. U. MUST DO ITS UTMOST
The University is no longer content to do its bit. From now until the end of the war it will be satisfied with nothing less than its utmost. The men enrolled here as University students must sooner or later take their places in the nation's army, and if the University gives them to the country untrained and unprepared for military service it not only fails to do its utmost, but even fails to render its bit which at a time like this the Government expects from every college and university in the land.
In an attempt to fulfill its obligation to the country at this time the University has made application for an R. O. T. C. This will give the men here an opportunity to prepare themselves to go into service when their University work is completed. It will be the opportunity for the University to do its utmost by so preparing its students that they will leave the University able to render the utmost service to their country and to the world in the greatest crisis in all history.
THE PROBLEM PASSES
The troubles of the Physical Education people, faculty and students, have boiled in a shallow pan too long. Facts will shit off the heat and calm the waters. Work in the department shows a marked improvement over last semester, records showing that every activity measured up a hundred per cent better. There was a reason for this.
The improvement over the first semester is due to the make-up classes held every day to give men the opportunity to square themselves as they went along. Instructors gave almost their usual time in order to do this for the students. Those who are still in arrears are given next week in which to make up all outstanding obligations to the department; and in justice to the rest, all others who have no overcuts have been excused for the rest of the year.
Finally, the number of students who must do make-up work does not exceed five per cent of the total enrollment. This is significant. Next year there won't be even this five percent. There will be no need of make-up time for students or faculty. Things are going on a sounder basis for all. The R. O. T. C makes all the difference.

CONTEMPORARY OPINION
AFTER THE WAR—WHAT?
A little over a year ago we entered this gigantic struggle, and now we see and feel as our best is being taken and thrown into the seething caldron at the front. As we pass along over streets and notice a star in the windows of the homes, we know another young man is giving his all. Again we wonder what will take place after this great cataclysm is over.
We know that our principles, our standard, will win, because we are going to put all we have behind it. And that right will be established among nations, but these nations who have given, sacrificed and suffered, what will they do. The great demand of the hour then will be food and work. A readjustment must take place. An abnormal condition must be brought back to normal. It won't be done all at once, but will be a gradual process. Will the result be the same after this war as all other wars? We can't measure in words or thought what the reaction will be or the conditions that will exist.
The warrior will lay down his rifle and come back to his old job. It will have to be built up again. During the war the demand has been small or nothing. So he will have to create a new demand. But maybe the people, now used to only the necessities will not care for it and will have to give up. "I fought in the mud and carrage of battle, but I am a failure here." There will be an aftermath of the war which the nation's must meet. Many new occupations, such as those for the blind, deaf, cripples and otherwise maimed. Great institutions for the helpless and incurables and the continual drain for money after the war to take care of the brave fellows who gave all for us.—University Life.

The "Big Ten" universities are putting on what is perhaps to be the most elaborate field meet in the history of college athletics. Three hundred men from each school will be entered. Each man will be entered in four events: the hundred-yard dash, high jump, broad jump, and grenade throwing. The athletes from each school will perform their feats on the athletic grounds at their own school, and the total points will be added together and telegraphed to the University of Illinois for compilation.

Dope Picks Nebraska To Win Annual Meet On Local Field Today
Pole Vault and Mile Relay May Swing Score in Kansas' Favor
Rice Will Try for Record
Shot Put and Both Hurdle Events Seem Likely to Be Nebraska's
Kansas meets Nebraska this afternoon on McCook Field starting at 4 o'clock in the annual dual track meet. Unless Kansas pulls out of the rut in some of the events it looks like a victory for Nebraska. If K. U. can win first in the pole vault and the mile relay race, the Kansas and missin in four of the contest. Then, in providing other events go as expected.
Nebraska has MacMahon, who should win the 100-yard dash from Haddock, but Haddock should defeat the Nebraska sprinter in the 220-yard dash. In the 440-yard dash, Lobaugh looks like a winner over the best bet that the Cornhuskers have. Murphy looks a little better than the Nebraska runer in the half.
RICE TO TRY FOR RECORD
In the mile, Nebraska has Graf who might win from Deewall. Grau looks like a certain winner in the 2-mile, but Oglevie or Hanna should get second out of the event. Howard and Gerhard may tie for the pole vault.
Rice is certain of first in the high jump and he is counting on breaking the Missouri record in this meet. Nebraska should get second, though Howard may cop the three extra points. Rodley looks at a winner broad jump for K. U., and Nebraska is conceded second in this event.
The shotput probably will go to Nebraska although this is a doubtful event and Haddock is certain of getting a second out of it. Liggett may place for Kansas. In the disc Haddock seems certain of five points, for he has been hurling this weight 120 feet in practice.
HURDLES LOOK LIKE NEBRASKA
HUDBLES LOOK LIKE NEBRASKA
The high hurdles look like all Nebraska, while the low sticks are expected to be won by Finney, of Nebraska, with Hobart, of Kansas, second. The mile relay may decide the meet. Here again there is some doubt. Nebraska had little trouble in winning from Kansas indoors this winter, but since then the K. U. team has been strengthened, and the Cornhuskers may lose the event. By winning the relay, Jayhawk hopes for victory look more promising.
J. C. Grover, of Kansas City, who is known as a competent starter in the Missouri Valley, will start the athletes this afternoon.
According to the dope, Kansas sought to get at least 49 to Nebraska's 60, and may do better.
Sphinx Favor Drill and Object to 6-Day Plan
The Sphinx dance tonight at Ecke's hall marks the passing of the present Sphinx organization. Sphinx is an organization composed of representative first year men with the idea of creating a better school spirit and fostering "pep" movements among underclassmen. The body this year has led an active life. It passed resolutions favoring compulsory military training; it decided against the 6-day plan of school, and favored the abolishing of refreshments at dances in war times.
New Sphinx are elected at the first of each year and are initiated by the Sphinx of the previous year.
Physical Exercise At K.U. Is Better Attended
This Semester Only 5 Per Cent Must Do Make-up
Work in the department of physical education this semester shows a marked improvement over the first semester, records showing that the work in every department is nearly 100 per cent better.
Students having no more than the given number of cuts are exempted from further physical exercise. Those having exceeded the maximum number are required to make up the work and will be made up in Robinson gymnastium and cuts in military drill will be made up in that department.
The number of students who must make up work probably does not exceed 5 per cent of the men enrolled. This is a great improvement over the first semester and the reason for it lies in the fact that make-up classes have been held every day giving the men an opportunity to make up the work as they went along.
Student Organizations To Aid French Children
Many student organizations are responding to the request to aid the fatherless children of France according to the local committee in charge of finding benefactors for these orphans. The Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity recently adopted a French war unit and adopted to do likewise. One fraternity adopted an orphan last year but gave up the charge this year.
Several sororities have already adopted war orphans and one or two educational organizations have also adopted them. The Cercle Francais recently sold tags on the campus for this purpose.

Invitation track meet which starts on McCook Field at 2:30 o'clock. Only fifteen schools will be represented in the meet, but they will be the pick of the track men of Missouri and Kansas.
On account of war conditions and necessity of cutting down all athletic expenses only the best athletes in the state have been asked to compete in the meet this year. Men who did good work in the state would interscholastic ties. Men who were the ones Coach W. O. Hamilton has asked to compete in the meet.
Belle Plaine, Valley Falls, Leavenworth, Kincaid, Winfield, Abilene have been asked to send two men each while Kansas City and Topeka high schools will enter five men. Four schools in Kansas City, Mo., Westport, Central, Northeast, and Manual, will send approximately sixty students to Kansas City high school will enter the same men that competed in the high school meet two weeks ago when the team placed sixth in the meet.
G. C. Grover, the noted Missouri Valley official of the Kansas City Athletic Club, Kansas City, will be starter of the meet Saturday. Silver loving cups will be given to the winning teams, as well as to the individual point winner and any athlete breaking a record. Gold, silver, and bronze medals will be given to winners of the first four places.

Annuals Are Here; Will Be on Sale in Fraser Tomorrow
Long-Awaited Liberty Bell Jayhawker Arrives Five Days Earlier Than Expected
Office Opens at 9 o'Clock
Receipts Must Be Presented and Payments Made In
The long-looked-for Liberty Bell annual, The 1918 "Jayhawker," has arrived!
Subscribers may get their copies at the check stand in Fraser Hall tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday. The office will be open from nine in the morning to the afternoon in the after- Tuesday and Wednesday, and all afternoon Thursday.
Subscribers and seniors must present their receipts in exchange for their books, according to Don Davis, the manager of the publication. Those who paid only part of the subscription price when they subscribed, will be required to pay the balance when they receive their book, and such payments must be in cash. No checks will be accented.
The Jayhawkers were sent yesterday in packages weighing seventy pounds each, by parcel post, special delivery, from Jefferson City, Missouri; and this accounts for their early arrival in Lawrence, several days before they were expected. As there are only a few extra copies of the book, they expect that all the books will be sold by Thursday evening. Squires', Ober's, and Johnson & Carl will exhibit copies in their windows.
The Jayhawker is a handsome book, containing 450 pages, bound in maroon leather stamped in gold. It is military in style, and is said to be the most unique annual ever published on Mount Oread.

The War Here and Over There
"The glory of this war, as far as we are concerned, is that it is, perhaps, for the first time in history an unselfish war. I could not be proud to fight for a selfish purpose, but I can be proud to fight for mankind."—President Wilson at a New York Red Cross meeting.
German troops have taken up positions thirty miles northwest of Petrograd, on the island of Bjorke in the Gulf of Finland.
The Germans are thought to be waiting for favorable weather to resume their spring drive. A dark, foggy day would probably be chosen. They have been bringing guns, supplies, and new forces to the front for several weeks.
The British government, in an attempt to stop sedition in Ireland, has arrested all the leaders of the Sinn Fein Society including its members in Parliament. Probably 500 arrests have been made by the police and soldiers with but little resistance.
The United States Public Health Service is testing samples from every lot of serums and vaccines used in military forces and in civil life in order to make sure they are effective.

K. U. Won Three of Four Singles Matches But Lost Doubles Saturday
Kansas Defeated Tigers
In Dual Tennis Tourney
Kansas won the annual tennis tournament from Missouri Saturday on the McCook Field courts. It was the first tennis match of the season between schools of the Missouri Valley conference.
Capt, Kenneth Uhls of the Varsity won his two matches against Capt. Fred Warner of the Missouri team, by 6-2, 6-1. Matthews won the extra set of singles from Shirley 3-6, 4-4, 6-4, but lost to Warner 4-6, 8-1.
Shirky and Warner played the doubles for Missouri and defeated Skarer and Uhls. 3,6-4,6-2. Ubls played a good game, but Skarer was not up to his usual form. A stiff wind all through the tournament made the playing erratic and prevented clean-cut tennis.
By winning three singles matches, Kansas captured the tournament before the doubles started. The Tigers won the doubles match.
Journalist For Nearly Thirty-Five Years Is Record of Mrs. Alrich
Veteran Newspaper Woman Visits University on Way to G. A. R. Convention
Mrs. Emma B. Alrich, a veteran newspaper woman of Cawker City, spoke to Prof. L. N. Flint's class in Editorial Problems and Policies at $\theta$ o'clock this morning. The subject "The Thinking Journal" paper business," Mrs. Alrich telling of her long experience as editor of the "cawker City Public Record."
"During the time my husband and I conducted the Record," said Mrs. Alrch, "we never had a piano contest nor a law suit. It was a hobby of ours to preserve the history of the town and to stand for the best of all things in the community. During the thirty-five years we were in business, the Public Record outlived fourteen competitors."
Mrs. Alrich spent the day visiting the University. She was on her way to the G. A. R. Convention at Chanute, having attended the Sunday School Convention at Hutchinson, and the Editorial Convention at Wichita. She has long been a prominent woman in Kansas. She is a charter member of the Women's Relief Corps, was formerly a member of the National Executive Committee, and is a past department president of the Kansas Women's Relief Corps.
Aid Sought for 200 French War Orphans
Program of Music and Dancing To Raise Funds to Increase
K. U. Quota
Now that the number of French war orphans has increased from 200,000 to 400,000, the University committee of the "Fatherless Children of France" organization has raised $1 million to be used for her the gifts from home.
Already 150 have been provided for, and in order to raise the necessary funds to care for the remaining fifty, Miss Helen Topping and her class of twenty-two dancing pupils assisted by Prof. Carl Preeyer, and Mrs. Herman Olcott, will give a program Thursday night in the Bowersock Theater.
The program, which will consist chiefly of dances, is being worked out under the direction of E. W. Murray, chairman of the local committee

Liberty Flag, Originated by J R. Holmes, Was Feature of RedCross Sale
AS THUZ WILLIAM HARRISON
The women of the Red Cross will hold a retail sale every afternoon this week of fancy work, cut glass and other articles.
"We are planning," said Mr. Holmes, "to take the flag around to the different Red Cross sales over the state and names can be added to the flag. Already we have an invitation for you to come." At Eudora the first week in June."
Plain Tales From The Hill
LARGE SUMMER SCHOOL
Many K. U., women who were afraid they would not be able to stay for summer school after the Fowler Shops fire, have now decided to stay. Their decisions came shortly after the announcement that 250 engineers will receive training on the Hill this summer.
The Liberty Flag which was originated by Mr. Holmes was probably the most characteristic feature of the entire sale. Saturday afternoon the flag was unfurled from the court-house by four women dressed in Red Cross uniforms. The citizens' band of Lawrence played while the Grand Army of the Republic escorted the flag to the court house.
The process from the first cross auction were greater than had been expected," said J. R. Holmes this morning. "The exact amount has not been totaled but we know that it amounts to more than $4,000."
"Unto the Least of These"
The rooms which were thoroughly cleaned a week ago Saturday in honor of mothers' day are about as dusty now as they were before. It will not be necessary, however, to have another upheaval before going home since Miss Duffield has about conpleted her tour of investigation.
Society Note: Emily got up early this morning to play tennis with his girl. As he had wisely opined, she invited him to breakfast with the kimona-clad sisters. It was a nice tennis game.
Visiting friend, looking at addition to Administration Building: "Will this be the largest building on the Hill?"
Freshman guide: "Why, I don't know about that, but I guess it is the longest in being built."
Workmen are removing strips of floor covering in the corridors in Fraser Hall. It is possible that the floors will be waxed, and the all-University parties joined in Fraser next year. It would not be so hard to decorate.
The life of the sleeping-porch habitue is a hard one. An organized cooperative serenade is not so bad, but when a crowd two doors away screams "That's where my money is," the caddies wail warbles, "Sing me love's lullaby," the effect is not harmonious, nor is it conducive to slumber.
Prof. Ise: "How would you form a partnership, Shoftail"
"Chuck": "Why, I would find me a partner, go get a license, and proceed to operate."
It is a fine bit of personal achievement to take a pill at one of the Hill's new drinking fountains. If this remark should seem a bit cryptic, try it. Besides, one pill more in the springtime is rarely anything other than beneficial.
The Men's Glee Club was given a real ovation at the Red Cross convoction this morning. Those who applaud most heartily had 11 o'clock classes.

Henry M. Beardsley of Kansas City Was the Chief Speaker
Both of the Glee Clubs Sang
"We Can Now Read History With Entirely New Light" Declared Speaker
Henry M. Beardsley, ex-mayor of Kansas City, Missouri, was the chief speaker of the program. The text of his speech was to outline briefly the causes and underlying forces of the present war.
The second gigantic Red Cross campaign was opened at the University of Kansas this morning at a special convalescation called at 10 o'clock by Vice-chancellor Burdick of the University. Dean Shad of the University of Engineering as chairman of the main committee of the University War Committee, will direct the campaign. $10,000,000 is the goal set for the United States.
HISTORY IN NEW LIGHT
HISTORY IN NEW LIGHT
"History when we now read it again comes to us in an entirely new light. I can now understand what Patrick Henry meant when he said, 'Give me liberty or give me death.'"
"The Boston Tea Party, Washington's willingness to give up everything and dare to fight with a meager barefoot army against the autocracy of a German King then ruling over the British people, and the spirit of Abraham Lincoln, all come to us in a new light.
"We can understand Lincoln when he looked forward to the time when America would have to enter the fight to prove the right of a world and nations ruled of, by and for the people."
Mr. Bearlsley read a number of extracts from the catechism on the Italian Government published in 1843, the following which is typical of the awards and annotations in the manuscript are typical to the ideals of government at that time:
Question: "How should subjects behave toward their sovereigns?" Answer: "Subjects should behave like slavets toward their sovereigns."
EDUCATED TO AUTOCRACY
Such propaganda was spread among the people of Europe and taught in all of the schoolsUniversities. The speaker declared that today, Germany stands as the example of such painstaking and long practiced teaching of the divine right of kings.
"The work of the Red Cross must go on with the successful issue of this great war. We have given only a little of our abundance and we should rely on the funds they fund to prove to the Allies the bond of love that we have for them."
Mr. Bearsdley also gave a brief detailed account of the origin of the present war and the way in which the German subjects have been educated to look forward to the time when Germany would rule the world. In his book *The Empire of征服,* "Gott mitts upon" upon the backle of all German soldier's belts,"
"Lafayette we have come," were the words spoken by General Pership when he laid the wreath on the tomb of Lafayette."
SHAD EXPLAINED PLAN Following the patriotic speech of Mr. Beardsley, Dean Shand, explained the plan of the local committee for the week to raise money from the students and faculty.
"Every individual connected with the University must be reported to the committee in charge, and the proposition in simple is this: First, every one should give all they can; second, Every individual at least give some; third, no one shall give less than the minimum."
Envelopes containing pledge cards were passed out and Dean Shad requested that they be filled out and turned in immediately, either accompanied by the contributions or with a copy of their signature saying some time during the week.
Dr. Burdick introduced the speakers and music was furnished at the opening by the Women's Glee Club near the close by the Merl's Glee Club.
Mr. Harold Foster of Blackwell, Ok., is visiting Earl Youngmeyer, c'20.

The war; nothing else matters.
COME THROUGH
Of course the Red Cross drive comes at an inconvenient time for students. But there is nothing to do but come through.
Don't ask father for any more. Cut down on some of those things which are not necessary for life or liberty or the pursuit of happiness for you but which will make all the difference in the world to France and England and Italy and the rest of the Allies.
That will make all the difference in the world to a wounded soldier or a French war orphan or to French prisoners sent out of Germany.
That will make all the difference in the world to your own father or brother or cousin or nephew or friend in the trenches. That will make all the difference in the world to you when the men in the trenches find out that you are not behind them.
There's nothing to do but to come through.
"SHE SMILES SOMETIMES NOW"
"I am only nine but I understand very well what you are doing for me and my dear mother. She smiles sometimes now—" A little French boy, one of the thousands of Fatherless Children of France wrote this to a member of the faculty who has adopted him. He is only nine, but his gratitude is part of the overwhelming gratitude of the French people to the American people—a gratitude which is over and above the service given.
And other children write to their "Marrains" or "Marrines" here in Lawrence. Another small boy says:
"What a great surprise for me to know that I have a god mother in America. I am so happy. I think of you always when I go to bed and I ask the good God to bless you for your great kindness to me. Some day when I am a man I shall pay you back for all you are doing for me now."
A mother writes: "I wish you could know how grateful we are for your generous gifts. We talk of you every evening for I want my little ones to remember later how impossible it would have been for their mother to raise them without the help of a kind person across the seas. As it is we lack a great many things. Last month we were three days without bread. I cried a great deal at not being able to make the children understand. My husband had a fine position and we had many plans for our children. But he was taken and now there is nothing but the little I earn. May such suffering never come to the women of America who are so nobly helping us."
Luciene Desquilbet, fourteen years old writes to her godmother: "I
thank you so much for all your kindness to me. It is helping me to go to business college and I am the one who must prepare now to take care of my mother and my little brother."
Another fourteen-year-old boy writes: "What a happy awakening the day after my first communion to learn that I had a new godmother who wants to take care of a poor little orphan like me. How I should like to see you and embrace you with all my heart. You ask me if I need anything. I need a great many things but especially I need my father. But I must not tell you about that. It would make your kind heart suffer too much."
A special appeal is being made for the boys and girls who "especially need their fathers" this week. It takes so little to help them. And if that little is given there will be many mothers in France who will begin to "Smile sometimes now."
DIRECT PARTICIPATION
The people of Kansas have a right to know what their public possessions are doing in relation to what they cost. Then they have a further right to put their own say-on what such a public thing as education shall cost in order that it may accomplish what it should for them.
To be sure, the state legislature will apportion moneys raised by the millage tax just as it has the funds raised by the general tax for educational purposes. It will fix the millage rate necessary to produce the amount required and it will spend what is assembled for the purpose as it sees fit among the various institutions of the state. This is true.
But there is a difference between the old and new systems. Every taxpayer will know under the millage system precisely what portion of his taxes goes into education. He will know what he personally gives. And then he will be more interested in the aggregate sum and the disposal it gets. If he sees his contribution with the rest apportioned unintelligently or inadequately to special needs, if he sees an institution neglected and unable to deliver to him and other citizens what it should because of lack of proper public support, his own millage will be in a tremendous portion of his consciousness. He will exercise the check upon public officers that every voter has and uses in this Kansas of these United States.
The Kansan founded his educational institutions when he was struggling through pioneer hardships, douth, crop failures, and all sorts of accompanying commercial discouragements. He is jealous of these institutions. They are peculiarly his heritage. He wants to support them. And he wants to do it consciously.
An hour's time lost in getting a wounded soldier to the hospital often means an amputated limb or a lost life. When the wounded and maimed come home are you going to have to think as every crippled soldier passes, "A few of my dollars given to the Red Cross might have saved that fellow's leg?"
Your investment in the American Red Cross will bring dividends in real service to you and to your friend a over in France.
The milleage tax tells him exactly what he himself is giving. His eye will be keener on the use made of what he does give. His appraisal of cost and result will put him once again into direct relationship with his institutions. There will be no leaving it all out to the general taxes—his share will count and he will participate in the accounting for it actually fulfills for him.
A new Armory-Gymnasium and a Sincie Hall are being erected at the Oklahoma Agricultural College.
Out of town subscriptions have brought the Third Liberty Loan total of the University of Illinois up to $220,000.
The Red Cross is swift to succor wherever disaster may strike.

They asked not if their drudgery were sweet,
They only did it, till the holy stars Decreed that they should taste the
Of sacrifice's costly joy—and then
Shouting they leaped exultant to their

Grant us to meet Thy test like Carev's men!

CONTEMPORARY OPINION
-Outlook.
ETHICS
"Yes, maybe, but I know where could buy one." — Widow.
Ethics as the science of conduct which we have known in the past has received almost exclusively an individualistic' interpretation. Honest dealing with every other person as an individual has been all that is necessary to give a man a moral standing in the community. If a man mutuled the public by sharp practice and avoided the department of his taxes by other methods, he was moral being if his private life were clean, provided for his family, and was honest in his direct personal relationships.
Inquisitor: And will you tell me—is the chin strap to keep the hat on? "Nom; it's to rest th' jaw after answerin' fool questions."—Life.
While the concept of ethics has remained relatively stationary, we have made tremendous strides in mechanical efficiency. The capacity of production per unit of population has increased manifold during the past century. Modern engineering has made possible the construction of massive and lofty buildings with speed and comparatively low expense which has brought about vast concentrations of population, giving birth to our great modern cities. The discovery of steam as a motive power and the invention of the steam engine has enabled the human race to conquer the earth at a greatly accelerated rate.
"No..oo. I never was exactly disappointed in love," he said. "I was what you might call discouraged. You see, when I was very young I became very much enamored of a young lady of my acquaintance. I was mortality afraid to tell her of my feeling, but at length I screwed up my courage to the proposing point. I said, 'Let's get married.' And she said, rWhy, who'd have us?"—Tit-Bits.
The fortuitous circumstance of the contemporaneity of the discovery of steam and the birth of the American nation has saved us from the particularism of small nationalities which has been a source of belligerency in Europe. While all this mechanical speed, we have continued to do business on an outwork code of ethics which does not fit modern conditions. We must develop a conscience in regard to our relationship to society as well as in regard to our conduct toward individuals. The test of a truly modern man is his ability to think as a social unit—Washington

Nebraska Won Track Meet from Jayhawkers Saturday, 69-to-40
Huskers Show Strongly in the Dashes and Cop Annual Classic on McCook
The Nebraska track team defeated Kansas in the annual dual track meet Saturday morning by 40 to 89, outclassing the Kansas entries in the dashes. McMahon, of Nebraska, was the star of the meet. He scored 25 points and second with fourteen points. The meet was postponed from Friday on account of rain.
Murphy lost the half-mile to B. McMahon on the stretch, the winner making the distance in 2:04:4. Lobaugh lost the quarter in the final fifty yards to H. McMahon in 54:1. Graf, the star Husker distance man, took the mile in 4:43 and the two miles in 2:52 and was needed for the condition of the track and the strain of running two long distance races in one meet.
The Kansans showed up better in the field events, Rice and Howard taking both places in the high jump. Rodkey and Howard made a clean sweep in the broad jump. Nebraska took nine firsts and made a sweep in the hurdles, quarter mile, and mile runs. H. McMahon made good time in the 100-yard dash for a heavy track.

"Monty," Kansan Sport
Writer, Leaves for Navy
John A. Montgomery, former sport editor of the University Daily Kansas this year and until recently city reporter of the Lawrence Journal-World, left Sunday for the Great Lakes Naval Training Station, Great Lakes, ill., where he will train for the radio service of the United States navy. Mr. Montgomery enlisted in the navy in February at Kansas City but did not receive his call until last week.
Mr. Montgomery was correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor and the Kansas City Journal while with the Journal-World. He was elected to the Kansan Board while a sophomore—an unusual honor—in the University of Kansas. He was vice-president of the Associated Journalists. "Monty" was known on the Hill for his sport writings and as an all-round good fellow. He is the third editor of the Daily Kansas to enlist in the navy this year, Harley Holden and Everett Palmer being the other two editors to join the naval forces.

Jayhawkers Lost Only Game Played at Ames By 4-1 Score, Thursday
Rain Caused Postponement o Other Two Contests—Weltmer Elected Captain
the Jayhawker baseball team re-returned Saturday from Ames, Ia., where they lost a game to the Iowa Aggies by the score of 4-1. Three games were to have been played with Ames, but rain caused the cancellation of the last two. The team will put it on hold for another week in preparation for the invasion of the Missouri Tigers, Thursday Friday and Saturday of this week.
The one game played with Ames was won by the Iowaans winning in the seventh on a pair of hits, a walk and an error. Ames scored first in the second inning on a couple of errors and a sacrifice.
Lonborg tied the score for Kansas in the fifth when he singled to right, took second on Bunn's out, advanced to third on another out and scored on Schoppel's single through the pitcher. Cherry singled with one out in the first inning and followed, failed to connect safely and the game went to Ames.
Goodwin was on the mound for the Jayhawkers for seven innings, and he pitched good ball, allowing seven hits. Scheeplop pitched the last inning for Kansas. Plaggie, the Ames hurling star, was almost invincible, and Kansas had few chances to score. The outstanding feature of the play of the Loborg, who had one putout and eleven assists at third base. He threw out four men at the plate during the game.
Isenberger and Weltner, who was elected captain of the team Wednesday afternoon, arrived in Ames after the first game and were ready to play in the second and third games, thus giving the Jayhawkers their full strength for the first time since the start of the season. The downpour of rain spoiled the last chance of the Jayhawkers to even up or win the series from Ames.

The honor roll of college freshmen, compiled by D. L. Patterson, assistant dean of the College, from recommendations of faculty members, was announced this morning with thirty-four names on the list in a class of 542. Twenty-one of the honor freshmen are women, and thirteen are men.
"The evidence obtained from the instructor's reports," said Professor Patterson, this morning, "indicated not only that these students had special ability along the lines of University work, but that they were faithful in their academic efforts and gave promise future scholarly attainment.
The roll was compiled after the dean sent out special requests to members of the College faculty for reports on the work.
The list has been posted on the bulletin board of the dean's office in Fraser Hall. It will remain there for a year. The number is smaller this year than it was last. It is about one-sixteenth of the class.

Jayhawkers To Enter Six Athletes in Annual Missouri Valley Meet
Carl Riee is Expected to Break The Valley High Jump
Record
Not more than six athletes will represent Kansas at the annual Missouri Valley track and field meet at Columbia, Mo., May 25 according to W. O. Hamilton. The K. U. entry will be small this year because of lack of good material.
400 km hour. Carl Rice will enter the high jump in the valley meet and is expected to break the record. Rice has jumped more than six feet and will try for a record Saturday. Marshall Haddock, the crack Kansas dash and weight man will enter the discus and 220 yard dash at Columbia. Paul Murphy will run in the half and should place. Howard will make the trip to compete in the pole vault, high jump and broad jump. Ralph Rodkey has been broad jumping more than 21 feet 6 inches and will place in his event. Dewall may be taken on the trip to run the mile and Glewie may be taken for the two-mile.
The Missouri team has the class of the Valley and should win the big meet easily. Kansas entries can be counted upon to return about fifteen points. $ _{4} $
Engineers Receive Call To Report at Camp Lee
Seven Students from Reserve Corps Ordered to Petersburg. Virginia
---
The senior engineers who enlisted in the engineers' reserve corps have been called to Camp Lee, Petersburg, Va., to report immediately. They will enter the Fourth Reserve Engineer Officers' Training Camp. They are Charles L. Shughart, Page Wagner, Rudolf Uhrlaub, William R. Brown, Warren Neumann, F. C. Walters, and Julius Krebs.
"This training camp for engineers began the middle of May," said Prof. G. C. Shaad, "but the seniors who have just been called only received word last Saturday to prepare to go. Some of the men have gone home for a few days before starting to the camp. No massage confirming the names of these men has been received although word was sent for the seniors in the Engineer Reserve Corps to report."
Quake About 5,200 Miles Away Was Recorded Here
An earthquake was recorded yesterday by the seismograph, in Blake the primary wave starting at 11:46:20 and the secondary wave at 11:55:56. The main wave was felt at 12:06:20 and the end of the wave at 12:48. The distance of the earthquake was estimated to be from 5,150 to 5,200 miles. The direction being uncertain, but it was thought to be in or near Italy.
Prof. F. E. Kester, of the department of physics, said if the record is of a submarine earthquake it was probably of little consequence, but if the earthquake occurred on land, judging from the distance and strength of the record, it must have done considerable damage.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Regular work on the Hill was suspended this morning, while K. U. read the Jayhawker. This accounts for the brevity and simplicity of this column.
Two long lines of palpitating humanity in Fraser Hall at 9 o'clock this morning. A sudden hush. The windows of the office are slammed up simultaneously, and the smiling faces of Harry and Don are upon the crowd. Each stude jams up to get his book, has a slight delay because he has lost his receipt, and then retreats. He looks first for the picture of himself.
"The radius rods, front axel and one wheel were broken and the frame was bent," said the story of an auto smash-up last night. Who ever would have believed that the little yellow Ford possessed such a diverse variety of internal workings?
Such was the dramatic opening of the sale of the 1918 Jayhawk.
There are some things worse than others, and one of the bad ones is, after reading a comfortable little murder story by Kipling, to have some one crawl into your room via the fire escape. At least that is what one of the girls at 1244 Ohio street thinks, since another girl of that house resorted to the iron stairway as a means of entrance.
Of course you noticed the wonderful full-page photograph of Walter Havekork? Walter is 'way out in California at an aviation camp now, and he doesn't look like the picture any more—he— has the mumps on both sides.
The most pathetic thing about professors is that they know it! Said a geology prof recently, "Did any of you students ever seen a fossil around here—er—that is, I mean, in the rocks."
"Well, I'm glad to know what that girl is at last. I've seen her on the Hill a thousand times."
TYPICAL COMMENT ON THE BOOK
"This picture of me is simply terrible."
"He sure had his nerve putting all his committees after his name. I'd hate to be so anxious to get something in."
"Where they ever got the idea that she is a beauty is more than I can see."
Editor: "What do you know that's funny?"
"Gosh, look how many of their guys flunked and couldn't be initiated."
Invariable answer: "Nothing funny about me. Nothing but gobs of gloom. Eight papers to get in by Friday."
Farnsworth to Dance
With Helen Topping
Clyde Farnsworth of the School of Engineering, will show his ability in a line different from engineering, when he acts as the dancing partner of Miss Helen Topping at the Bowersock Theatre Thursday night in the benefit recital given to raise enough money to enable K. U. to support fifty more of the "Fatherless Children of France."
The Masks, Where Are They?
The wind being in a favorable quarter, the director of crematiorium is launching his periodic gas attack against the University this afternoon.
Miss Topping will also be assisted by her twenty-two dancing pupils, and by Mrs. Herman Olcott and Prof. Carl Preyer. Many clever and unique dances, which will come as a surprise, have been planned for the recital.

All men who are interested in the Y. M. C. A. Conference which will be held at Hollister, Mo., in the Ozarks, instead of Estes Park, Colo., will meet on the golf links Tuesday night. The change was made to Hollister, Mo., because of the expense of the trip to Estes Park.
The conference will begin June 1, one week earlier than usual, in order that the students will not lose the week between the closing of school and the conference. The trip to Hollister will cost $31.50 per person.
Among the speakers at the conference will be Harry F. Word, Bishop T. Thurston, A. J. Elliott and C. G. Hounsell. "Dad" Elliott, who has just returned from conducting clean living campaigns in the different cantments, will also be at the conference. Other leaders are the Rev. Paul B. Kern, Southern Methodist University; Professor J. D. Griggs of the University; and C. W. Williamson, of Memphis, Tenn. The foremen will be spent in addresses by the different leaders and discussions on national and international problems, student life and the religious work of the campus.
The following states will be represented in the conference: Kansas, Texas, Louisiana, Colorado, Arkansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. The University of Kansas has had the largest delegation for the season and it is hoped that at least twenty men will go from here this year.
George S. Balley, newly elected president of the association for the coming year has entered the navy and has returned home to await his call. B. Jenkins, vice-president will succeed the president and will complete the appointment of cabinet men. The men chosen this far are: Walter Nufer, recording secretary; Fred Jenkins, personal work; Herman Hangen, social; Frank Stacey, boy's work; Harold Hall, gospel team; Logsborn Walther, conventions; Earl Pickerel, sick visitation; Edward Mason, social service. The publicity, student finance, membership, Bible study and mission committees are now open for appointments.
First Red Cross Day At K. U. Brings $1,483; Drive is Going Good
"The quota of the University for the Red Cross War Fund will be passed," said Dean G. C. Shaad of the School of Engineering, who is chairman of the finance committee of the University War Council, this morning. "The committee is well pleased with the response made by the students and faculty at the convocation yesterday, when they raised a total of $1,483."
Committee On Trail of Students Who Have Not Signed Official Cards
"The task before the committee at the present time," said Dean Shaad, "is to find out those students who have not contributed. Every student must be reported to the county committee whether they have contributed or not."
The work of covering men of the faculty and employees will be in the hands of Prof. J. G. Brant, the women members, will be given to Prof. May Gardner. Women students will be in charge of Mary Nichols, and the men students are to be in charge of Charles Shugart.
The women have a booth in Fraser Hall today where subscriptions may be paid. It is proposed to have a corps of eighty women. Each woman will be given the names of several who have not contributed, and the plan is then to have these seen personally. The same plan probably will be worked out for the men students, faculty, and employees.

The Dafy Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate inasmuch as to further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the teacher prefers to be clear; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be positive; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university the students of the University.
TUESDAY, MAY 21, 1918
The war; nothing else matters.
THEY'RE COMING THROUGH
K. U. men at the front are going to know that the University is behind them. There's no question about it since the Red Cross pledges are being collected.
The students aren't paying very much attention to that limit of one tenth of one per cent of their allowance. They're giving a lot more.
And they are paying their pledges at once. The University Committee isn't going to have to go out into the by-way to get the money. The end of Red Cross week will see the full quota and the surplus paid in and ready to do its work.
Come on in fellows, the incinerator's fine today!
THE JAYHAWKER Here's to the Jayhawker!
So here's to the Jayhawker!
It's a great book. The funny stuff is funny and the snap shots are snappy. And, serious and frivolous, it's worth while.
It's a great book. It does what it was supposed to do. The story of K. U. during the first year of the war is told in prose and pictures and poetry. It is current history for the University and deserves careful reading and preservation.
In Germany it is Hoch der Kaiser; the rest of the world says CHOKE der Kaiser.
CHILDISH THINGS
College people, like most of the rest of America were like the Apostle Paul during the first years of the war. They persistently saw through a glass darkly. And even when the United States entered the struggle they refused to clear up the crystal for their vision.
Their food and their clothes and their amusements still concerned them as much as the greater things of the war. And they made little effort to save their time or their energy or their money for better things.
The University of Kansas is beginning to wake up. The Men's Student Council and the Woman's Student Government Association are making that the senate limit the price of dances to $1.50 next year, that no food be served at parties, that no money be spent for evening clothes, that the number of downtown parties be limited to one a semester, and that students generally spend their money and their energy for worthier things.
It remains to be seen whether the student body will back up their program. It remains to be seen whether men and women at the University of
Kansas will realize that the war is the only thing that matters. Whether they will realize that their clothes and their dances and their food and their theater tickets really don't matter in the least but that the food and the clothing for starving France and
num and Italy and England mean the winning of the war. It remains so be seen whether they will realize that their little affairs are of no importance whatsoever unless they help make them more efficient to aid in winning the war.
And so much depends upon the result of the decision.
There are substitutes for $250 wheat; blessed will be the man who finds the substitute for dollar gas.
THE JUNIOR; A FABLE
There was once a University which decided that no senior need take a final examination if he had been diligent and faithful throughout the years of his college course. And there was much joy in the seniors hearts. But there were in the University certain professors who could not get away from the old order of things. And because the seniors were to escape the ordeal of the exams the professors decided that to pay for that relief they must do what is known as extra work. And extra work consists of special reports, and notebooks and quizzes in the last week of the semester.
Now there were in the same classes juniors who had no relief from the final exams. Neither did they have any relief from the extra work. And so they were forced to burn the midnight electric light the last weeks of the semester and become haggard and nerve-racked thereby. And for their extra work no credit was given, neither was there any lightening of the exam.
Moral: When in doubt, don't think of the under-dog.
When you and I join us and we the war will be won.
ON OTHER "HILLS"
Seven students of Ohio State University have been killed in war, since last spring.
Gypy Smith, the famous evangelist, recently gave a war address to the students of Northwestern University.
Six women of the University of Texas have been accepted for the Vassar Training Camp for Red Cross nurses.
Prof. E. C. Goddard of the University of Michigan law school says that there is a growing need for women as lawyers.
Weird Cries Rend Air —Lost Annual Receipt
It was a weird, calamitous cry that rent the peaceful air on the evening of May 21, 1918. But it was not the voice of some tranomtane, the pleading tones of a disheartened mendicant, or the echo of a doctrinaire's opinion. No, it was none of these. It was only the mournful wall of a few students who had lost their Jayhawk receivers.
In the excitement, contention and mad whirl of the beauty contest, the little slips had been thrust hurriedly into books. Perhaps some of those books belonged to Spooner Library. The result was that the bustiness manager almost lost his sense of humor when he was forced to search old files for the duplicates of those receipts.
According to publishers auxiliaries, the growing mortality among German newspapers in the United States is proving that Germans who run papers here are aligning themselves in still greater numbers with the ideals and purposes of the United States.
In Vienna a quarter of the population are living on the rations of the public kitchens, and the city deficit for the year was $7,500,000.
The British Government will pay the same price for horses and mules for army service that it paid last year at this time. The order to resume buying is to take effect May 27.
(Gounous Stoloff was for a brief time in the University of Kansas, though not widely known while here. In fact, he was so obscure a reclusue that some say his short stay here was in the late Eighties and others that it was in the early Nineties. The manuscript of his few poems has survived with numerous circumstances that for a time cannot be revealed. The verse is so good that editors of the Kansan feel it worth publication.)
POET'S CORNER
DREAM SHIP
Where wraiths of moonbeams weirdly shoot
A wan light, pale as shadow's shade,
The Seen of Sleep its silver spreads
Like starlight through a flimy wee.
And o'er its mist-wrapped waters filts
A mystic bark—of fancy wrought—
The phantom memory of Memory.
The fading likeness of the Past
Its tears, its hopes, and fleeting joys
In paling hues like sunset's tints;
Thou brings these, O Ship of
Dreams.
Will o' the Wisp of the Slumber Sea.
—Gonnam, Sloeho.
As hour by hour I see the time pass by
LIFE
And life glides on in this old world, its stage;
As oceans old in calms and stormy rage,
And yet they go, I know not, where or why
Like swallows, flitting through the
southern sky
Tis net for us, old Father Time to gauge.
For he's eternal and a wise old sage
And listens not to all our plaintive
For he's eternal and a wise old sage
And all the animals and shrubs and trees
But yet do not the flowers, the birds,
the bees.
Rejoice through life, then sink beneath the sod.
To join again in faith and love with God?
For life is but a beautiful spring day.
We live f'om dawn 'til night, hen
nose assay
-Gounoud Stoloff.
MENTAL LAPSES
Passing a hand over his forehead,
the worried drill-sergeant paused for breath as he surveyed the knook-
le. Then he pointed a scorched finger.
"No," he declared, "you're hopeless. You'll never make a soldier. Look at you now. The top 'alf of your legs is standing to attention, an' the bottom 'alf is standing' at ease!"—Tit-Bits.
Elderly Boarder (who does himself well) : “Dear me! I've lost two buttons off my waistcoat.”
"Are you doing any patriotic work?" "I should say I am. My wife and my five daughters all use me to wind wool on!"—London Opinion.
Landlady: "I expect you'll find them in the dining-room."—Passing Show (London.)
FORCE OF HABIT
"The stage drivers in Yellowstone Park," says a Denver man, "are bothered by many foolish questions from their passengers, and often resort to satire to convince us that a lady in the hot springs incurred deeply interested in the hot springs inguired:
Charles Lamb was once asked to say graze at a dinner. He was surprised, and asked: "Is there no minister present?" He was told there was not. "Then," he continued, "let us thank God."—Current Opinion.
"Driver, do these springs freeze over in winter?"
“Yes, ma'ma’,” was the response. ‘A lady was skating here last winter and broke through and got her foot scalded’.”—Harrer's.
The Red Cross means Morale.
HOW IT HAPPENED
A stingy old lady presented the cabman with his exact legal fare and a stale bank, remarking that the latter was for himself, "Oh, thank ye, mum," said the cabby, sarcasticly "for the poor old 'os'?"—Current Opinion.
THAND GOD!
IRONY
One hears a great deal about the absent-minded professor, but it would be hard to find one more absent-minded than the dentist who said soothingly, as he applied a tool to his automobile, under which he lay, "Now this is going to hurt just a little."—Current Opinion.

Special Examinations Are Not to be Given
Rule Prohibits Final Examination to be Given Before Quiz Week
"No special examinations can be given to students of the College," said Assistant Dean Patterson this morning, "prior to the regular final week." The rule is a week. The rule of the College is very explicit upon this point. It reads:
"Rule 46. Final Examinations.
Final Examinations for all students are held during the last week of each semester."
"This practice has never been departed from, and at the present time, no exceptions will be made. An examination given prior to the regularly scheduled examinations cannot be accepted and every student with the exceptions of the seniors possessing a grade of B or better must write a final examination. The seniors as mentioned above were relieved by special action of the University Senate taken February 5."

Jayhawkers To Have Full Strength Team For Missouri Series
Captain Weltmer the Team's Only Veteran Will Be Back In Game
Kansas Must Face Urie
Tigers Were Able to Hold All Star Funston Team To 6-3
The Kansas baseball team is playing the first game of a final series of the year with Misiouri on McCook field this afternoon. The games, which were to have been played later in the week, were moved forward two days, and the last two contests will be played tomorrow and Thursday.
The Jayhawker team is in the best of condition and will have its full strength on the field for the first time since the last game with the Emporia Normals in Lawrence. The presence of Captain Wardie Welterm in left field should greatly strengthen the K.U. line-up, as it is the only team in the team and is leading the Kansas squad in hitting. He did not play in the Missouri series at Columbia or in the one game last Thursday at Ames.
CHERRY WILL BE AT FIRST Weltm, Oyster and Schoeppel will probably appear in the outfield for the Jayhawkers in the three games, with Keeler and Wilhelmy in reserve. Cherry will play his old position at first base. Isenberger will be at second, Foster will play short on Lonborg will play third. Bunn will probably catch in every game. Goodwin, Cherry, Schoeppel and Slawson will do the pitching for Kansas, with the probability that Slawson will start the game today and Goodwin will work tomorrow, with Cherry left for Thursday's game. Cooper will play first if Cherry is called upon to pitch.
MISSOURI HAS FOUR VETERANS Missouri has an excellent, well-balanced team this year, with four veterans in the lineup, in Captain Slusher, first baseman, Dippold, the hard hitting outfielder, Dennis at stoplight and Morris, the catcher. The Tigers have cinched the Missouri Valley Championship by holding their all-star Camp Funn aggregation to a 6-3 score at Columbia. Missouri has one of the best pitchers in the Valley in Urie, and he has a pair of able assistants in Beck and Dippold.

Missouri Wins Game From Jayhawker Nine In Bad Eighth Stanza
Weak Fielding at Critical Times Has Much To Do With 6-5 Score
K. U. Scores Two In First
Dippold and Slusher Lead Tiger Attack—Lonborg Does Well
Well
The Missouri baseball team defeated the Kansas nine at McCook Field Tuesday afternoon, 6 to 5 in the first game of a three game series. Urie, the Tiger's star twirler, struck out eleven K. U. hitters and was given poor support by his team. Tigers hit four in seven. Weak fighting by Kansas in the seventh and the eighth had much to do with the Tiger victory.
Kansas made a pair of runs in the first inning on a three-base' hit by Foster, an error, and a single by Bunn. This lead was strengthened by another run by Cherry in the third inning. Missouri scored in the fifth and tied the game up in the seventh, making two runs.
K. U, came back with two runs in the eighth when Cherry got a hit and Bunn was hit by the pitcher. Oyster then came through with a two-base hit. Missouri had made three runs in this inning on two singles an error by Fester and a triple, and the game owed mostly Missouri.
Slusher and Dippold led the Missouri attack. Cherry, Foster, and Lonberg did well with the bat for K. U.

Prof. Sterling Receives Letter of Thanks For War Photos and Data
Professor Sterling is Collecting Material of K. U. and The War
Prof. M. W. Sterling, of the department of ancient languages, is making a collection of all war data that may be of value to the war department or of interest after the war. Professor Sterling recently sent a number of photographs to war department and received the following letter from that department:
“Accept the thanks of this office for your letter of May 8, together with the twelve photographs to which you refer. It is requested that you forward any additional photographs of a similar nature, in which your judgment may be required, in the final files of the War Plans Division of the General Staff.
Professor Sterling has collected many pictures with data of war activities in the University. It is all being preserved and filed and a complete record is to be kept. At the present time he is especially interested in the pictures of men who have died in service. Letters of interest received from soldiers, pictures of the men in service, and all data touching K. U. and the war are good material, according to Professor Sterling.
"Some day the material will probably be collected into a history of K U, and the war."
Dr. Allen Is Honored
Dr. Bennet M. Allen of the department of zoology has been elected to the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine. The election comes as a recognition of the research work done with tadpoles. Dr. Allen has been working with these experiments for many months, and has achieved some remarkable results, especially in the uses of the thyroid gland.

Military Situation Here Awaits Senate Action
No definite information could be obtained this morning from members of the committee to investigate military training for the University next year. The committee is awaiting the action of the University Senate and until then nothing definite can be learned.
Prof. F. H. Hodder, chairman of the committee, intimated that the committee had come to some definite conclusions, but that such information could not be given out until after a Senate meeting.
The War Here and Over There
with trains loading and packing, day and night, at Camp Funston, it is evident that the boys have ended their eight and a half months of training and are preparing to go overseas.
The British repulsed a heavy German counter-attack northwest of Merville along a front of about two-thirds of a mile Tuesday. Everything was quiet along the other sectors of the Allied armies:
Paris is establishing underground theaters because of the frequent airplane raids.
In American cities of 10,000 inhabitants or over, there is available from kitchen waste about 70,000 pounds of pork and more than $16,000,000 worth of grease and fertilizers, the Food Administration says.
New York has passed a law allowing any citizen the legal right to arrest persons who make disloyal statements.
The rumor that Field Marshal Von Hindenburg died recently has become current very generally among the enemy in the back area as well as among the civilians. The belief of the Field Marshal's death is gaining more support among the British every day.
The scarcity of different materials in Germany is shown by the facts of what that country is using as substitutes. Celluloid and sugar replace cotton and saltpeter, coal replaces gasoline, and a new kind of soft steel is used for guide rings on shells that are used to extract metal from being extracted from soft coal by distillation, and structural steel and iron are scarce.
The prohibition elements in the House of Representatives won the first round Tuesday in a fight to get President Wilson to exercise his war authority to prohibit the manufacture of light wines and beers, as well as whisky.
Germany has limited the amount prisoners may spend to $15 a week for officers and $12.50 for private.
Men's Glee Club Closes Successful 1918 Season
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 22, 1918.
The Men's Glee Club has its last rehearsal of the season in Fraser Hall, Tuesday night. A business meeting was held, the report of Manager Raymond Darby, showing that the club broke even on its concerts, giving four in all.
Two annual concerts were given at Fraser Hall, a three day trip was taken to Camp Funston, a concert was given at the Kansas City high school, and the club also sang at Haskell, the annual Colonial party, and at the Glee Club Gambol. The last was a dance put on by the club to help defray expenses incurred on the trip to Funston.
Louis Morgan was elected business manager for next year. It is his plan to make dates for an extended series of concerts to be given at the high schools during the Christmas holidays. Several years ago the K. U. glee club always made an annual trip during the holidays through the southern part of the state and northern Oklahoma. Mr. Morgan is planning to schedule a similar trip.
Quill Club will hold its last regular meeting for this year Thursday night in the Women's Rest Room in Fraser Hall at 7 o'clock. Election of officers will be held and all business will be finished in time for Miss Topping's Recital.
Prof. Joseph Farrell probably will be director next year.

Offer 33 Publications Of War Information For Reading Public
Something for Nothing; Merely Fill in Card—No Postage Needed
Something valuable for nothing is being offered University students, and others who may be interested, by the United States Committee on Public Information. The gifts are a choice of two government war publications, including "The Study of the Great War," by Prof. Samuel B. Harding, "Conquest and Kultur," and "German Treatment of Conquered Territory."
There is only one string attached to the gifts. That is, that persons desiring them shall mark an X following the name of the publication they desire on the free post card bearing the list of publications and that they sign the cards, giving their home town address; not their Lawrence address. Only two publications may be selected. The post cards require no postage because they bear the franking privilege. They may be obtained at the desk in Spooner Library, at the Kansan office and from Dr. F. B. Dains in the Chemistry Building.
"This 'Red, White and Blue Series,' 'War Information Series,' and 'Loyalty Leaflets,' number thirty-three separate publications," said Doctor Dains. "Thirty of them are free and a student or other persons may obtain his choice of two of them. Among several of the very good publications in the lists are "The Study of the Great War." "German Treatment of Conquered Territory," which is part of the Program," said Dains.

ment of an army."

"All indications point toward a splendid summer school," said F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Education. "A new course in Home Nursing has been planned. This course will be open to all summer school students who have had the required prerequisites in Home Economics and are intended to teach in Kansas high schools under the Smith-Hughs law.
Dr. Florence Brown Sherbon, of the department of Physical Education and the superintendent of the University hospital will have charge of the course."
Plain Tales From The Hi
TRUE STORY
Nestling among the electric light bulbs, tin foil wads, and other articles of the Fraser Hall salvage box is a "bomb."
Some workmen dredged a curious copper and lead contraption out of the Kaw a few days ago. A large dent had evidently been pounded in a sheet of copper, and lead covered the opening of the dent. It seemed too light to be solid lead, so there surely was nitroglycerine in the dent. It must have been a bomb that had been placed under the Bowersock Mills but had washed away.
The thing was given to Floyd Hockenhull to have some Hill scientists examine it. He handed it as if it were fragile glass, and was surprised to see the chemistry professors take it and boldly saw into it. The ut disclosed solid lead.
So the salvage box got the "bomb."
From a freshman's estimate of himself, handed in to a rhetoric instructor: "I am very popular with the girls. They all like to dance with me. In fact, many think I am the best dancer on the Hill."
It is rather hard to determine just which organization was hit the worst in the "Hilidai" snt it?
The extraordriarily warm weather and the strain of the year's work are beginning to tell on faculty members. Professor Cady has acquired a beanshooter, which he uses with much gusto and enthusiasm.
The best self-advertising institution on the Hill is the incinerator, Given a strong south wind like the one on Tuesday, and every one will know, if not the life history of the incinerator, at least that there is such a thing.
There are impressionistic and futuristic artists in K. U. One of them recently told Katherine Davis that her hair was blue and crimson and yellow! Katherine looked in the mirror to see if she had spilled ink, but she didn't. She is worried.
Mrs. Loud does not relish Kansas storms. "Won't it blow the house away?" she asked this morning
"Well, it will only blow it nearer the University," replied the Professor, "and that suits me."
Prof. C. A. Dykstra has really made a confession to his American Government class. The wind was rattling the windows the other day and making considerable noise. The professor stopped in the middle of a lecture said "The wind is blooming pretty hard. I can blow pretty hard, too."
Theta Sigma Phi will meet in Fraser Hall Rest Room at 8 o'clock Wednesday night.
Kappa Phi will hold a short meeting at Myers Hall Wednesday night at 7 o'clock. This will be the last meeting of the year and all members are expected to be present. Dues for the handbooks must be paid tonight.
Mr. Donald Hartley of the Kansas City Star attended the Sigma Delta Chi initiation at the Sigma Chi house last night.
The University of Illinois is furnishing 4,000 surgical dressings for the Red Cross.
Chancellor Frank Strong has called a meeting of all big sisters and big sister captains in the University for Thursday afternoon at 5 o'clock in Myer's Hall.
K. U. Red Cross Pledge Exceeds $2,000; Half Amount Already Paid
Soliciting Committees Will Call On Persons Not Voluntary Subscribers
Honor Flag Is Goal Sought
Small Amounts, But Some Gift From Everyone, Object of Present Drive
Dean George C. Shaad, director of the Second Red Cross War Fund at KU, said today that more than $2,000 had been pledged as checked up Tuesday night. More than $1,000 of this is paid.
Three booths are now being used situated in Fraser Hall, the Administration Building and Marvin Hall. Effort is being made to allow all students and faculty to subscribe with the least possible inconvenience. It is planned to turn over the names of all those who have not donated by tonight to a committee of personal solicitation.
After the committee has interviewed their number, names of persons who do not subscribe, will be turned over to the executive committee of the County Red Cross together with their reasons for not doing so.
K. U. is working hard for the Red Cross honor flag, which is given if 75 per cent of the number of persons assigned, subscribe. The arrangements allow other smaller crosses to be added, one for every additional 5 per cent. If won, flags will be put up in practically all the buildings over the Campus. Dean Shaad said he was especially eager to get the flag soon, that it might be displayed at Commencement.
Dean Shaad said there will be little difficulty in getting the subscriptions, for 25 or 56 cents will cover the amount expected from the average student.
Martial Spirit Evokes Praise For Jayhawker From Faculty Reviewer
Memories of University In Wartime Given Profound Significance in 1918 Annual
By G. C. L
The war inspired the form and content of the just issued 1918 Jayhawker, the thirtieth volume to record the passing of a college generation from the University of Kansas. And inspired is the word, for there is not nonly uselessly ugliubulous or morbund about the book. Nor yet is there any reason that a Kansan soldier will see it without pride, and a thrill, and a smile, and just a hint of soldiery moisture about the corners of his eyes.
Open the cover and the boys are marching down the hill; the old University is saying farewell. But as one closes the volume the flags are being brought back home. The art is a little startling, but the sentiment is glorious. All drawing partakes of either professional dash or amateurish extravagance throughout the school day. In its proper does the ocean roll too boisterously or the flaps flaunt too spiritedly or the eagles scream too heroically to tell the genuine feeling of the glow of youth in 1918.
FRAMED MEMORIES
The Hill section comprises some delicate photographic work. It is happily more romantic than severely realistic as the camera usually insists. Somehow the pictures were sought and framed as memories rather than as blunt snapshot reminders of prosaic things. Every picture carries its peculiar sentiment to some one, and all together have a meaningfulness to everyone. The faculty, too, were generously idealized—those whose pictures came in on the Hill. But then they are like the trees and the stone piles of Alma Mater; they'll be left behind fairer by memory's consecration—with the help of the Jayhawker.
Cartoonists let loose choice lines of angular emphasis on the front porches of every student division from seniors to freshmen. And no one has a really valid complaint that

Such recitals mean that the School of Fine Arts is more than an institution to teach a student to play and sing. They mean that real encouragement is given to the creative spirit. Students are encouraged to develop their own ideas instead of slavishly copying the works of the masters.
CASH ON HAND
And the result of their creative work is found worthy to be presented to a University audience.
It wouldn't be this way if the Permanent Income Bill were now in force.
One-third of Fowler Shops wouldn't have to stand in temporarily patched ruins until the state legislature gets around to meet again. Then after plowing through preliminary and sunday matters, it probably will make a regular appropriation for permanent repairs. Ponderous system, this rigorous regular course is. Not a cent of hand to apply right now, the University, the people of Kansas, and the government of the United States can nurse patience.
For when this one third of Fowler Shops went up in smoke the other day, the building and its equipment were being put in readiness for specialized technical use in the training of 250 selected soldiers of the United States. This is no time for delays. Systematic lack of foresight is an unusual excuse.
And deliberate improvidence is the real reason. Under the workings of the proposed Permanent Income Bill such a cause would be eliminated, such an emergency would have been met effectively. The cash would be on hand within the total appropriations for state institutions and within the immediate power of the governor to apply to the particular instance of necessity. The University of Oregon has a surplus for building laid aside from the millage tax share it receives. And Kansas could at least have the money and the expedition in its usage.
Unquestionably the present system of financing Kansas educational institutions is uncertain and inelastic. Higher education in this state is too much involved in the whims of politics. The time and the opportunity are at hand for clearing the decks for action and the Permanent Income Bill is the power to do it. Cash on hand means readiness for fulfillment of obligations; there is only one way
to be sure of having the cash and meeting the obligations. The Permanent Income Bill is at once a remedy and a guarantee.
BILLS IN SPRINGTIME
It's a good thing to pay one's bills in the spring, especially before leaving the University for more or less uncertain residence.
Student organizations are being urged by creditors to pay up. They are willing to do this, eager to do it. But they find themselves without ready money.
The reason for this is not that the members are delinquent, but merely that all the treasurers' books are on deposit with George O. Foster, registrar. No checkbooks, bank books, treasurers' reports or anything else are available. And no bills can be paid until they are.
The registrar's supervision over accounts is for the purpose of helping students keep their accounts in a more efficient and business like manner as well as to eliminate graft. But the scheme seems to be working out in the opposite fashion this spring.
The honor of the University is in question as well as the honor of student and individual students. The honor of the University depends upon the reputation of every student.
Would Apply Teutonic International Tricks To Collegiate Affairs
Working Out Is Grim But Has Preparation In Aspects of Past Relations
The following Modest Proposal under the alturing captions of a naive "Why Not?" comes swiftly from the pen of one who is on the laboring and belabored Committee of Intercollegiate Relationships. All the institutions of learning in reach got a visit, but the opening fire was directed in greeting to classic halls near Topeka.
To the Intelligence Department of Washburn College;
Desiring a few instruments and books from Ottawa University, and knowing that Supermen could use them to make the world more noble instructors to get, then, A
Baldwin we were surprised and grieved to find a spirit of opposition. One student threw a rock, making a gash two and one-half (2½) inches long in the hat of one our noble instructors. We were forced to reprimand such insolence. After taking considerable booty we destroyed the home of the student and his flancee. The two young people were left in quiet—permanent quiet. The booty included an engagement ring worth $150, two tennis rackets, twenty-one (21) souvenir sixteen, sixteen (16) hairpins, six (6) pairs of cotton socks, ten (10) pairs of silk stockings, good photographs of Bishop Quayle and ex-President Mason, and the greater part of the troussause, not yet cataloged. At the girl's home, her little brother, aged four, was caught making faces at one of our of our noble instructors. We left him in a mutilated condition in the middle of the street. The girl's mother, too, added to additions of our noble instructors as "Doctor," we forced to skin the cat twenty (20) times in succession on the village hitching rail. The grandmother, who refused to smile as we were punishing the child, we brought back, to shine the shoes of our noble instructors. We fined the pastor of the Methodist Church one hundred dollars ($100,00), as he denied that the student who threw the rock was condemned to eternal punishment.
Having wrecked the University Chapel and imprisoned the Mayor, under heavy guard, our noble instructors advanced homeward, in good spirits, singing this sacred anthem;
To h— with Baker, man and maid,
To the babies of the village;
There won't be much to pillage.
Make all their proofs get on then knees,
We'll bring our axes, chop down their trees.
When we are through with our next raid.
Poison their waters. Robe their daughters.
And leave things in a terrible muss.
We'll kill a kid or two and then,
Taking rich booty home with us,
Go mowing, singing, SUP—ER
DRYING.
Our next route may pass through Topeka, toward Manhattan. We state the above facts that our good friends may avoid trouble. The humane purpose of our noble instructors must not and shall not be turned aside by the selfish, sentimental objections of un civilized schools. By the grace of Gott and the strength of our invinible mob we shall attain the place in the sun we rightly deserve, appointed to us since this State entered the Union.
Students of the University of Kansas.

And softly tints the distant mountain peak.
tum peak
The rose shakes off the dew-pearls from her cheek.
The spider creeping outward from the leaves.
Then—suddenly—in the East, burning light
Her busy task once more begins to ply.
Proclaims the sun-god, come to take his right
The fading night with deep reluctant sigh—
Blots out the stars—her last sweet

To ride in glowing majesty or high—
And fling Night's lingering shadows from the skv.

THE SOUL SOLICITANT
How oft my spirit longs for rest and calm.
To be from every care and trouble free.
To live content with peace and liberty
And feel that joy flows 'round me as a balm.
My soul doth ask as one with lifted palm
For freedom from this world of caring care.
Then Nature calls me to her high toped hills.
And oft my spirit murmurs low in prayer,
Oh, let me hear one strain of angel psalm.
And bids my soul to find its longed for rest
And then I yield myself to her em-

And lo! my soul is truly, greatly
blest.
So let me give forever close to these
In sweet communion, happy, blest,

All communications to this column must be signed by the writer. In the final draft, less the author states, but the editor must know who is writing the communication as evidence of his commitment. Communications are welcome.
In reporting the Kansas-Nebraska track meet Saturday morning, I see that you failed to mention a rather unpleasant incident.
Hanna was unable to finish the race and when he dropped out, a Nebraska runner swore at Hanna as he walked off the track and Coach Stewart loudly abused him. Hanna, being a gentleman and sportman typical of K. U., refused to enter into the argument but walked smilingly over to the Kansas stamping grounds. Fair Play.
Coach Stewart of the Nebraska University made a spectacle of himself at the meet by becoming unusually violent in his complaint of Hanna, in the two mile. Hanna was running his usual clean-cut race and would not allow a weak Nebraska runner to pass him. The starter and nothing wrong with his running, but still Coach Stewart kicked.

"Artillery Was Active Is the Mild Explanation Of Constant Shellfire
Dr. George Lewis Meylan Gives Report on Y. M. C. A. Work at Front
A bulletin received by Hugo Wedell this morning from the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A contains a graphic account of Y. M. work at the front. The account is written by Dr. George Louis Meylan, a professor at Columbia, who has just returned from seven months in France.
"Those over here who have not been in the war zone must forget their old time ideas of warfare and its dangers. Forget this old idea of open fighting, with troops battling across a plain the size of a large athletic field. Modern artillery shoots for miles and is always shooting. Every person within twenty miles of the trenches is under fire practically all of the time, yet the reports do not call this a battle. The reports announce 'The artillery was active,' and that means shells anywhere from five to twenty-five miles back of the trenches.
THREE DAYS BOMBING BEFORE RAID
"Early in April the Germans made night raids and their airplanes were active in bombing, keeping up the fire for three days, during which time persons below were kept dodging. On the second day two "Y" men in a Foyer de Soldat—one of the soldiers huts provided by the French with "Y" men in charge—when, with five or two shells struck, a few yards away, the enemy hit the hut. The 'Y' men were knocked down by the concussion. It seemed a miracle they were not hit, for soldiers were killed and wounded all around them.
"John Murray, fencing master of Columbia University and of the New York Athletic Club was knocked unconscious, a danee worker was killed.
LUCKY THE CONVERSION
"In a certain woods the shells were dropping so thickly that the French commander ordered our men to abandon their huts. The order was not received until evening, a 'Y man of my acquaintance decided not to leave until next morning as he wished to take his stuff. Next morning he was approaching the hut when a French officer stopped to exchange farewells. This took little more than a minute, and the Red Triangle worker started on his way when a shell exploded on the path near the hut at the point where he would have been had he not been detained. This is only a fair sample of the hair's breadth escapes experienced by the 'Y workers. Eighty of our men with the Canadians have been killed. They work from 6 to 8 o'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock at night, seven days a week and with only a week off every three months. But many of them never take their week off.
KULTURE DOES SOME BLUFFING
"I went forward toward the trenches to meet the American soldiers coming back after their baptism of fire at Chemin des Dames and they were all eagerness for more. The Germans had sent picked troops against them, their strongest men in brand new equipment, to impress the Americans that Germany had an abundance of everything, material and robust men. Quite a contrast to the ill-equipped, ematriated men the French had taken prisoners."
"The Americans give such good account of themselves in this fight, that the French could not praise them enough."

A report of the results concerning the effect of war upon social activities of the questionnaires which were recently sent out to the different state universities, has been compiled by Mrs. Eustace Brown. She has found that of the entire list only two have the privilege of holding social affairs as late as 1 o'clock. The University of Washington has the ruling that parties and dances may continue until 1 o'clock, but during this entire year not one organization has held later than 12 o'clock.
Only three of the universities on the list have no limit to the number of dances that may be given by any one organization. Every university reports a noticeable effect of the war upon the social life. Only four universities reported no effect of the war upon dress.

Wedell Has Developed Good Freshmen Material For First-String Men
Yearlings Have Completed Successfully With Varsity and Defeated Haskell
The Freshman baseball season for 1918 was closed Friday, May 17, with a good strong practice. The squad played consistently through the season securing an even break with the Varsity in the practice games of the season, and also defeating the Haskell Indians twice, 7 to 5, and 7 to 2. A third game was to be played, but rain spoiled the plans.
Coach "Dutch" Wedell had charge of the squad the entire season, and developed some real material for the Varsity next year. His first line-up looked as good as any of the Missouri Valley teams this year. The team was smooth and by consistent coaching, a smooth running machine was developed.
In the catching department arm Brite, Madden, Desmond, and Chestnut. Brite did all the heavy work, and should prove an able assistant to John Bunn next year. Out of Harms, Marxen, Harrison, and Pierce, Dutch has developed some real material for the pitching staff, which has been very weak this year. Harms, a lefthander, and Marxen, a big right-hander, should make Coach Bond's twirling position look good.
Dutch Wededl played first, and also Harms, when not pitching. MacLeod and Palmer took care of the keystone sack, both being fair fielders and good hitters. At short is Fred Murphy, one of the fastest fielders ever seen on McCook Field. The big Irishman is a好 hitter also, and should prove a valuable asset to the club in future games, but more feidling chances than any man on the team, with the exception of the first baseman, and was a consistent hitter.
In the outfield, Vermillion, Judkins,
Weiberg, Pierce, and Barter, were fair
fielders, and good hitters. Church
and Snyder pitched well in the
tiled in ally during the season.
With the addition of a number of the men Coach Wedell has developed, the Varsity should look like a real ball club next season.
Martial Spirit Evokes
Praise for Jayhawker
(Continued from page 1)
his or her beauty was libelled in the double columns of faces to be remembered. Willard Wattles finds the secret heart of him who meets the obligation of the year of his life the years before, and the one thought the soldier thinks
BEAUTIES BEAUTIFUL
Then the military section in which the soldiers of the University pass in review and the story of them and what they are doing—have done and finished doing in a few sad instances—is written with firmness and understanding insight. The cuts are taken from scenes of actual military life—a few from across the sea. The women get in too—the while they roll surgical dressings for their men and for other women's men over there. The Roll of Honor completes what K. U, has done for America.
Our Kansas girls needn't be enumerated. Suffice to say they are all they were voted to be and the pictures of them enhance in discriminating ways the graces they naturally possess, although the military costumes recall to many an old fellow the misspeet days of youth. But then they had to get into step with this year's Jayhawker, and G. M. Cohan, D. Davis, or al, have done no more harm than Wm. Shakespeare. Their collective good taste couldn't excel the beauty section this year.
Spicy captions, concise summaries, active pictures against typical backgrounds—all serve to draw out the K. U. athletes individually and in the aggregates of different sports for one last dress parade from the field to the record of achievement in the Jayhawker. The women get their share of the parade by wearing a physical and coding under the chaperonage of the inimitable John Shea, still a bachelor, standing in the midst of his pyramids.
PRIDE PARLORS
It will be great in years to come to see one's face among special groups of faces with labels underneath in high sounding English or cryptic
Greek. Page after page from student governors to libulous publishers to deliberately organized ungovernable and unpublishable people—all in clear form, fairer than life, especially the Jayhawker pair—they respect in respective parlers of pride.
Ruff Stuff needs steel shutters and reinforced concrete but no one needs to part the asbestos curtains. If one does—chronicle for chronicle—and pictures tell tales—the glorious portion of innocence and mischief reflects the irrepressible joy of University life.
Pages 450, labor months and months—the product is rewarded by the fulfilment of initial intention. Between every line the war, in every scene and every face the war—but the war that men and women can meet with unforgetfulness of the past, courage and purpose for the present and future—all expressed between the covers of what Harry Morgan and Don Davis did for old K. U. before they too went to色彩 in the memorable spring of 1918.
Pringle of Harveyville took only one trial in the shotput and won with a put of 42 feet 10 inches. Pringle in addition is also a good hurdler and takes part in the broad jump. He is a cousin of Tom Pringle, K. U. fast end.
Cooley who used to run the mile for Kansas City, Kansas, and later ran the mile and the two-mile for U.K., was one of the timers in the meet. Cooley held the state interscholastic record in the mile at 4 minutes. 41 seconds until it was broken by Dedo, also of Kansas City, Kansas in 1915.
Engle of Abilene had little trouble in winning both hurdle races. He won both these events in class A at the Interscholastic Meet here two weeks ago.
Sophomores Win Doubles In Woman's Tennis Meet
High Wind Makes Accurate Plays Impossible—Two Finals Remain
Sophomores won the doubles in the woman's tennis tournament with the seniors yesterday afternoon, 8-6,2-6-1.
The game would have been an excellent one had it not been for the gale which swept the courts during the game. Margaret Hedder and Katherine Reding of the senior team and Cyra Sweet and Iris Russell of the sophomore team are said to have been out for any tournament this year, and for this reason promised an unusually interesting game.
"But with that gale it could be nothing but ping pong," said Hazel Pratt, in reporting the game. There have been only two good days for tennis since the tournament began, but yesterday was the worst."
There are two more matches to be played in the tournament, the final singles between the seniors and sophomores, M. Holder and C. Sweet, and the final doubles between the sophomores and freshmen, C. Sweet, I. Russell, and C. Oder and G. Holderer.

Naval Reserve Open To All University Men Who Are Physically Fit
Applicants Armed With Enroll ment Certificate, Take Examinations in K. C.
Training At Great Lakes
Not to Be Called This Summer
If Needed at Home
For Work
Any physically fit man in the University, who is regularly enrolled in a school and expects to graduate with a degree, is eligible for enlistment in the Naval Reserve, according to N. B. Whitzel, petty officer from the Navy recruiting station at Kansas City.
sas' city:
To exist in the Reserve, the student must present a certificate of good standing from the dean stating that he is regularly enrolled. If the applicant passes the physical examination, which is given in Kansas City, he then obtains release from his local draft board and will continue with his regular school work in non-duty status until he is graduated.
RETURN TO SCHOOL IN FALL
Reservists will be trained at the Great Lakes training school of seamanship during the summer months and allowed to returned to their regular school work in the fall. At this school they are taught the rudiments of sailors' duties. They learn the riggins of vessels, how to tie knots, to man life boats and all the elements of seamanship. The technical training comes later.
Training at the Great Lakes school for this summer, however, will be at the option of the applicants and he can specify at the time of his enlistment. If he is needed for useful work at home this summer he will not be called to the school.
LISTED SECOND CLASS SEAMEN
At the Great Lakes, the reservoirs
will be classed as second class sea-
men and receive $35.90 a month.
Mr. Whitzel will be at the post office Friday afternoon to talk to the men who are interested in the Reserve.
Less Than 50 Per Cent Of Students Here Give To Red Cross Drive
Flag
Students Must Contribute 75
Per Cent To Obtain Honor
Less than 50 per cent of the University students have pledged to the Red Cross and 75 per cent must pledge to enable K. U. to obtain an honor flag. About 80 per cent of those who have failed to pledge so far are men.
The University has raised more than twice the amount assessed but the burden has been upon about one-half of the students. $2,313 has been pledged and $1,500 of that amount has been paid. Honor badges will be given to those who pay their pledges as they are paid. The badge is oblong in shape and has the Red Cross emblem in the center.
The University is trying to get its complete quota by Friday. Those who have failed to pledge are asked to leave their name and address with their pledge at the Registrar's office in Fraser Hall. The pledges may be paid at the Registrar's office.
The honor flags for organizations are large square emblems with the Red Cross insignia in the center. At the bottom of the square small Red Crosses are placed with the per cent of employees or members of the organization who have made their pledges to the Red Cross.
All students who fail to make a Red Cross pledge will be reported.
"The Red Cross must be supported by voluntary contribution, because if the government supported it, many things could never be accomplished, which is now done by this organization," said Prof. U. G. Mitchell, to the women of the University at the Food conservation lecture, in Fraser Chapel Wednesday. "The Red Cross," he continued, "Is the only thing that can reach the men when they are taken prisoners."
Mr. and Mrs. F. Firestone of Anthony will be guests at t he Pi Upsilon house Saturday evening.
O.T.S. Class Day to Be May 29 in Green Hall
Class Day exercises of Oread Training School will be given by the seniors in Little Theater in Green Hall the night of May 29, at 7:45 o'clock.
Commencement exercises are to be held at the Unitarian church the night of May 30, at 8 o'clock. Prof. U. G. Mitchell will give the address. Dean F. J. Kelly of the School of Education will present the diplomas.
The War Here and Over There
The German submarine, instead of being the menace it has been, is reported to be now on the defensive. Submarines are being destroyed faster than they can be built.
United States shipyards have been asked to rush production to make July 4 the most notable launching day in history. Charles M. Schwab, director general of government shipbuilding, said that more ships are being built than can possibly be sunk by submarines.

German official statements say that there are 3,575,000 prisoners in Germany and her allies, including civilians as well as soldiers. The labor power of these persons, Germany says is of "supreme value." It is estimated that two-thirds of the prisoners are Russians.
University Men Are Needed As Officers In Artillery Corps
Chancellor Gets Word of Training Camp at Fort Monroe, Va.
Word has been received by Chancellor Frank Strong from the Coast Artillery training camp at Fortress Monroe, Va., calling the attention of University men to openings for enlistments in this branch of the service.
Effort is being made to interest members of colleges and universities, especially technical institutions, in the opportunity offered by the coast artillery corps, to become officers in this branch of the service.
To handle heavy artillery and conduct its fire, officers with previous scientific training are desirable. It is also desirable for the men to serve in that branch of the army where their training will be of best advantage.
CORPS SUPPLIES OFFICERS
This corps is supplying all the army artillery for the mobile army aboard; that is, the large reserve of medium and large caliber artillery attached to the army organization. It also will supply all anti-aircraft batteries and trench mortars.
CORPS SUPPLIES OFFICERS
TRAINING LASTS THREE MONTHS Officers are now commissioned in coat artillery by passing successfully a 3-month course of training in the Coat Artillery Training Camp. The next training camp starts July 1.
TO SELECT UNIVERSITY MEN
It has not been possible during the last few months to secure a sufficient number of candidates for the training camp from the enlisted personnel of the army. A provision is now in force by which cretain selected students from the universities can be placed almost immediately* in the training camp. Students now are given under the draw law will be given the necessairy, inducted by the local board, sent to the Coast Artillery School and assigned to a special company, where they will be given preliminary training until July 6. Students not registered may go to Fort Monroe, at their own expense, and enlist there.

But the amount the University subscribes doesn't make any difference when it comes to earning a Red Cross flag. That is determined by the number of people who help raise the fund.
And the Red Cross is asking only ten cents for every hundred dollars of a student's income. But they are asking that from every student's income. We're all in it now and all of us must come through.
The Red Cross quota set for the University has been overscribed. Students had subscribed $2,313 at 6 o'clock last night. They had paid $1,500.
The course consists of five months training, divided as follows:
So far only 50 per cent of the students of the University have pledged to the Red Cross fund. Seventy-five per cent must give something before K. U. can add a Red Cross flag to the Liberty Bond flag.
DAYS TO BE WELL FILLED
A uniform schedule for each day of the meeting has been planned. The morning sessions begin with Assembly at 8:30 o'clock. Bible classes will be held, from 9-10 o'clock. Mission study classes will meet from 10-11 o'clock. From 11:10-12:00 there will be special councils for student presidents, cabinet members, normal school students, Indian students, general secretaries and faculty members. The afternoons will be given over to competitive sports in tennis, basketball and swimming. There will be opportunities for horseback ride and tramping trips. In the evening a platform meeting will be held at 7:25 o'clock. The day will close with separate delegation meetings.

Two small sons of Prof. L. N. and Mrs. Flint, and Helen Naismith, e19, were run down and injured at noon today by an automobile that became unmanageable on Fourthgen Street, back down the hill and jumped the curb at Louisiana Street. Miss Naismith was trying to drag the two children from the path of the car when the three were struck. Her foot was painfully bruised. Bobbie Flint, 4-year-old, was severely bruised on one leg and the other leg slightly cut, George Flint, 2 years old, was knocked down, but apparently was unhurt. The two children were standing on the sidewalk at Fourthgen and Louisiana streets, as a milk delivery car bearing the name Wilson's Dairy passed up Fourthgen Street. The engine went dead just above Louisiana Street and when the brakes failed to stop the car the driver apparently tried to back into Louisiana Street. The car struck the curb and ran partly across the sidewalk before stopping.

Men registered in the draft can enroll with the proper enrolling officer by securing from the draft board a letter of release which in all probability can be obtained for this purpose, provided the men are not included in the current draft quota.
SOME IRRITATING THINGS
Special provision has been made for the continuance of the school with proper material by a navy regulation which permits under-graduates of the freshman, sophomore and junior classes in recognized engineering schools to enroll in the navy with a rating seaman second class and continue their courses at the Institutions where they have matriculated. Such men will be called into active service after their graduation and can at that time, if they are physically qualified to pass an officer's physical examination, enroll for the course at the U.S. Navy Steam Engineering School.

Call has gone out from the office of W. O. Hamilton for students to check in all athletic equipment belonging to the University athletic association. All equipment of every variety must be turned in at the McCook Field sheds or at Manager Hamilton's office in Robinson Gymnasium before May 28, or the cost of the missing articles will be charged to the students. Only Varsity men who are actually using the material on the teams are exempted in this call and they should check in as soon as they finish their final athletic event. Students will not be allowed to keep any sort of athletic equipment during the summer except by special permission.

Dr. Frank Strong Back With Favorable Report Of Peace Conference
Ex-President William H. Taft Presided Over Meeting Held In Philadelphia
Foreign Delegates Present
Attendance So Large Crowd Had to Be Divided Into Two Sections
That the win the war for permanent peace meeting of the League to Enforce Peace held in Philadelphia on May 16 and 17 was one of great enthusiasm and great influence is the report brought back by Chancellor Frank Strong who was a delegate to the conference. That conference was much lauded as it was expected to charge and the character of the meeting has given the League to Enforce Peace a very wide influence, he said.
The conference was presided over by ex-President William H. Taft who is president of the League. Ambassadors from Great Britain, France and Japan were present, and a general from the Italian army also attended. Secretary of the Navy, Josephus Daniels delivered a speech which he told of the accomplishments of the navy in the present war.
One of the most significant feauret of the conference, according to Chancellor Strong, was the presence of delegates of the socialist party and labor representatives. These men pledged themselves to give their big support to the idea of permanent peace after the war.
SEAMEN STAND UP TO EAT
TWO HOTELS FOR CROWD
SEAMEN STAND UP TO IT
The speech of Secretary Daniels was very interesting according to the Chancellor, and he said that the American destroyers had traveled an aggregate of a million miles since the beginning of the war. The life on board these destroyers is especially arduous, according to the speech of Secretary Daniels as the small boats go through the water at the rate of twenty-five to thirty knots an hour and the quarters are so cramped the men on board often go weeks without eating a meal except while standing.
TWO HOTELS FOR CROWD
The attendance of the big war dinner Friday evening was so much larger than expected that the company had to be divided into two sections and two hotels were used for the dinner. Twenty-two hundred persons attended. The speakers also had to be divided and the two divisions were shifted so at both hotels the delegates heard the same speakers.
The conference at Philadelphia was only one of many meetings of the league to Enforce Peace but the character of the meeting gave the eague much more prestige than it ever held before.
Oread Training School Opens Summer Term Soon

THEIR DEAREST POSSESSION
The war; nothing else matters.
The mother and the son and the two little daughters in France sent their dearest possession to the K. U. professor and his wife who had adopted the son. They sent a photograph of the family with the father present, dressed in civilian clothes instead of in the horizon blue. The father had been killed in action the second year of the war. This was the only photograph the mother had but she wanted the American benefactors to see their adopted children.
The son and the two daughters are only a few of the thousands of the Fatherless children of France who must be helped by the people of more fortune nations. And it takes so little to help them.
The local organization of the society is making a special effort to raise funds for the support of French orphans this week. They are asking the co-operation and the support of every one.
And if you are too busy to go to the benefit which they are giving send your check to the treasurer.
THE TIME TO DO IT
This summer is the time, 105 counties of Kansas are the place, the 860 daughters of the University of Kansas will be star witnesses in the case of Legislature vs. Permanent Income Bill. Equally responsible with them for the educational future of the state are the women of all the other state educational institutions. Nobody in the state is better able than they to testify to the habitual niggardiness and neglect of pottering, bungling one-half mule power politicians in respect to dealing with the needs of higher education through out the state.
And the women have got to fight for the Permanent Income Bill alone because the men will be putting shoulders to the harvest or behind hammers in war industries or under guns in the army. It is true that many women are going to hospitals for nurse's training, that some are going into government bureaus and laboratories, that others are going to take up the work of absent men in business. All this is to the credit of the Permanent Income movement, however, for it shows what education in Kansas does and is worth and what more it deserves.
But there will still be a consider able number of women going home to help the folks, going home to communities which have service flags flying, and Liberty Bond honor flags up staff, and Red Cross responsiveness measured in terms of double quota. Such communities are typical of old Kansas. And they will listen
to the evidence in behalf of any righte-
tous cause. Not only will they listen,
but, if their questions are answered
convincingly, they will act.
Never before, then, have the women of Kansas had more required of them. Abroad and at home duty calls. Intelligence leads. The educational interests of the state must be strengthened at such a time, and reinforce reinforcement coming with the Permanent Income Bill is in the hands of women to bring about. These women must tell the story of how and why there is a permanent fund provided under the millage tax system for education, a fund that will be known to every individual contributing to it because his share has definitely been given.
For educational institutions, like human constitutions, must have energy producing stimulus administered not spasmodically but regularly, intelligently, with foresight and selective care, always with sufficiency. Education in Kansas has been suffering from malnutrition. In years there has not been sufficiency; for years irregularity and uncertainty of apportionments have denied fulness of life and service.
Now it is time to do something. Fortify with facts. Make every fact count. Secure something of lasting good for the people of this state. It is their right to possess it. Help them to gain it.
SPECIFIC FACT
The Kansan stated a general truth yesterday with reference to the auditing of student accounts, a general truth that in its generality did not particularize sufficiently in regard to the auditor and the auditing. That job is and has been well done. Here is how and why.
Increasing his work from a third to a half, George O. Foster, who is as busy as any University registrar can be, has undertaken to audit the accounts of student organizations and functions. His spirit has been wholly co-operative, and he has had to teach, literally give the elements of bushness to some who had been honest but slipphed in customs of the past. There is one organization which now has its papers on his desk, one very important organization which has never kept receipts stubs for incoming funds. Hereafter they will. Just now it is rather difficult to make a complete audit.
In the next place only half a dozen of some thirty odd organizations and functions have actually to date put their accounts in for auditing. Some, like the Jayhawker for instance, are not to be expected until work is all done for them. But the rest have less than ten days left to get in their papers, and those ten days are increasingly busier for the registrar's office what with graduating the seniors and a few hundred associated details.
The Kansan strongly recommends the appointment of a man whose whole business it shall be to do this auditing of students' books. His job would begin in September and end in September. He could take the initiative far more than the present constituted officers have the time to. He would have one great big job all his own. And the registrar would still be working more hours a day than labor unions permit most of their members!
But-the student account books which are in the registrar's possession now are a condition and not a theory and some agreement should be reached so that the organizations can settle accounts immediately.

DOUBLE DUTY
"Sure, sir," replied Nolan, "I left it in my box to keep an eye on me kit while I'm on parade."—Journal American Medical Association.

POET'S CORNER
THE TAPESTRY OF AGES
The Tapestry of Ages slow is exerted.
Each life, by Time, is woven as a thread:
And some are bright—sky blue and ruby red,
And some there are that break off and are naught.
Lo, here and there a shining golden thought
That, winding through the sombre tones, is led
To trace the beauty on the background dead:
And all the work in harmony is brought.
For we see not the figure that we weave,
We know each broken strand, each ragged end:
The greater work must be beyond our sight.
But when the days, the nights—aye, Time shall leave,
That mighty one toward which all ages tend
Shall stand revealed triumphant, Right.

No sounds are heard.
Through the morning air,
Save the call of a bird
From its leathair.
A soft balmy breeze
Stirls each leaf tree;
There's a hum of bees
From the clover lea.
The sun shines bright Through the drowsy air And a lazy delight Reigns everywhere.

RedCrossNews
FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH
ALL OF US$ARE ENLISTED
Three Things
The Red Cross has with your fighting dollars expressed to the men of our Army and Navy the moral and legal support of the American people.
They have enabled us to hearten the fighting forces of our Allies and to keep alive among the civil population, the spirit necessary to win the war. It is in recognition of this important influence that statesmen and generals everywhere have acclaimed your Red Cross one of the factors most vital to the success of our cause.
Your Red Cross has made possible the patriotic service of millions of Americans. It has enabled us in the second line to serve the cause of Liberty no less efficiently, not less forcefully than those who fight with machine gun and bayonet.
Your Red Cross has welded together the people of America as no other agency could have done. It has given new meaning to those ideals for which we are fighting. It has fostered the spirit of loyalty, democracy and liberty. Your Army and Navy are fighting democracy. Your Army and Navy are fighting democracy. Your Red Cross dollars are fighting to make it fit for democracy. That Army of Fighting Dollars must be maintained at war strength. Its depleted ranks must be refilled.
A Belgian girl of 9, when brought into one of the Red Cross stations in Northern France and offered food, said she wasn't hungry. The nurse in charge knew that it was fear and timidity that concealed the pangs of hunger; so she poached an egg and offered it.
What—a Whole Egg?
It is in many homes such as these that the American Red Cross is rendering immense help by providing food, clothing and education.
And, after devouring it, she related that, once a week, in occupied Belgium, her mother would divide one child into two provide—between three small children.
“What,” said the child, “a whole erg. all for me—all at once!”
Woodrow Wilson Says of the Red Cross: "I am hopeful that our people will realize that there is probably no other agency with which they can associate themselves and respond so effectively and universally to allay distress."
The Red Cross spends money to save life.

College Women Urged To Do Volunteer Food Work During Vacation
Need for Conservation is Emphasized in Mrs. Teetor's Final Lecture
Large Field in Home Town
K. U. Women May Join College Girls Volunteer Food Conservation Lecture
"Every girl will have a chance to aid in the food conservation work this summer by joining the College Girls' Volunteer Food Conservation League," said Mrs. E. D. Teetor in the last food conservation lecture given in Fraser chapel Wednesday. "It will not be for girls who have had food work alone, but for every girl in the University. The plans are not finished yet but Miss Mary Capper, sister of Governor Copper, has been appointed state secretary. There will be a chairman in every county and the girls will report to this chairman for work.
LITERATURE TO BE DISTRIBUTED
There is a great need for posters pertaining to food work. Many of these can be sent out from Washington but there is a need for some having a local appeal. Then there is the distribution of the food conservation literature. In every town there will be a place where such literature can be distributed. The work of distribution will be done by volunteer work by college girls. This place in every town will be sort of a central information bureau for the town.
"We must urge upon the women the importance of canning fresh vegetables. It will save the vegetables, for every can of vegetables canned by the housewife in her home, that will save one can from being sent to her over the already crowded transportation lines.
USE HOME GROWN PRODUCE
USE HOME GROWN PRODUCE
Farmers should be persuaded to use all fresh produce which would spoil if shipped. Urge the use of milk, vegetables, cheese and cottage cheese. Girls who have cars or are able to drive them can be of great service by going out into the country and bringing this perishable produce to town and seeing that it is distributed to places where it will not be wasted.
"The girl who has had training in journalism has a large place also. She can present the idea of conservation of food in the local papers in such a way that the people will heed it.
"dean Templin." Mrs. Teetor concluded, "is going to misy disappoint if the Kansas college girls do not come up to the standard other states have set in this work."

The course of study for the training of teachers under the Smith-Hugher Law, submitted by the department of home economics, was approved Tuesday afternoon at a college faculty meeting. This course involves few changes from the present course of study with the exception of the introduction of a three-hour course in home nursing and the addition of a two-hour course in laboratory work to the present course in home administration, making altogether a five-hour course. A practice house is to be established and plans are already being made for its development.
College Faculty Decide Men in Service Must Meet Graduation Requirement
Change Courses to Come Under Smith-Hughes Law
It was decided at the meeting that the regulation requiring 80 hours of A, B, and C's for graduation should not be waived in general for students entering military or naval service of the government but the administrative committee was given power to act on special cases.
A request that the members of junior and senior classes of the college be permitted to take a full year of law work was made by Dean J. W. Green of the School of Law. The request was not acted upon but referred to the administrative committee for recommendation.
The term of office of two members of the administrative committee expired and Prof. B. M. Allen and Prof. F. E. Kester retired from offices and Prof. W. C. Stevens and Prof. W. S. Johnson were elected to fill their places.

The spring drive by the Allied Entomologists has captured the canker worm and put a stop to its outrages. The cold winter had no effect on this enemy and it came out this spring with its usual malicious energy, but in advancing on the tender young leaves of the tree each worm met a sticky death.
Banding of Elm Trees Finish Canker Worms
Two years ago banding trees with tangle-tooth was entirely voluntary, and but three or four trees to a block were banded, with the result that elm trees were stripped of their first leaves. Last year banding was in a way compulsory, but was left to the individual property owners, who in many cases neglected it. The trees were not all stripped and were greatly damaged.
This year banding was absolutely compulsory, with a force of men hired by the city to do the work. The tangle-foot was applied the early part of January and has been kept fresh ever since. For the results look at any elm tree.

Second Missouri Game Postponed on Account Of Wet, Soggy Field
Double-header Scheduled for Today if Field Is In Playing Condition
The Jayhawker and Tiger baseball teams, idle Wednesday because of the heavy rains, were scheduled to meet on McCook Field this afternoon in a doubleheader. The heavy rain Wednesday night again soaked the playing field, however, and it is doubtful if the games can be played this afternoon.
If the double bill is played as scheduled, Cherry and either Goodwin or Scheppel probably will be on the mound for the Jayhawkers, and Beck and either Dippold or Urie will work for the Missourians. The remainder of both teams will be the same as they were Tuesday afternoon.
These games are the last on the schedule for the Jayhawkers, and if they are not played this afternoon, will be cancelled.
Stage For Ballet Dance Dethorned of Splinters That Stick Barefee
Helen Topping and Class Will be Accompanied by University Orchestra
Bowersock Theatre may be all right for dramatic club productions but it was not built for bare-foot dancing, according to Helen Topping, who will give a bare-foot ballet dance there tonight for the benefit of the "Fatherless Children of France." The floor has had to be thoroughly done over to remove deadly splinters that are an隐患 in bare-foot dancers, to say the leagues.
Miss Topping and her class of twenty-two pupils will dance to the accompaniment of the eighteen-piece University orchestra directed by Professor F. E. Kendrie.
The first number on the program will be the bare-foot ballet by Miss Topping entitled "A Summer's Day." In this dance Miss Topping will portray the different periods of the day, from dawn until the darkest hour before the break of the day. Miss Topping also dance to the accompaniment of a solo "Spring's Greeting," by Miss Margaret Hodgson.
Small children will appear in a Greek dance and in the final ballet, the music of which is from "Coppelia," by Delibes. Little Leora Sebert, who made such a decided impression on Lawrence, will repeat the "Minuet in G." Betty Jane Fox of Kansas City will also appear in two numbers.
Mrs. Herman Olcott and Professor
Preller Preserve will assist Miss Topping.

Few Track Men Will Go To Columbia to Run In Missouri Valley Meet
Final Examinations May Keep Howard, Haddock and Murphy at Home
Only three or four track men will represent the University of Kansas at Columbia, Mo., Saturday, in the Missouri Valley track meet, according to present indications. Howard, who was going to compete in the pole vault and the broad jump, has a final examination on the day of the meet and will remain here to take it. The examination schedule which starts Saturday is also bothering Haddock and Murphy.
Haddock had entered the dashes and weights, while Murphy was counted on for points in the half, but t is doubtful if either will go on the rip. Lobaugh, the speedy quarter miler, has gone to his home in Washington since the law school was dismissed two weeks ago.
Oglevie will enter the two mile run and is expected to place among the first four while Deewall has been keeping in trim this week for his race in the mile in the conference meet Saturday. Rice is expected to have little trouble in winning the high jump, and with a dry field he may be able to establish a new record. Ralph Rodkey will be a sure point winner in the broad jump, if past performances this year can be counted on as indication of his work. He may run the quarter mile also.
Baseball and track will be the sports at the summer session at the University of Texas, besides the regular gymnasium work.

Women members of the faculty ano women employees of the University have registered 100 per cent in their contribution to the Red Cross and are winners of the first honor pledge banner issued by the local managers of the campaign. Their contribution was $463. May Gardnr, instructor of the Romance Language, was in charge of this group.
Today the entire student body of the School of Engineering is working strenuously to solicit contributions from those students who have not yet given to the Red Cross. They are working under the direction of Dean G. C. Shaad, who has charge of the K. U. campaign.
By tomorrow the committees in charge of the contributions hope to have seen every student enrolled in the University and every employee. Up to the present more than $5,000 has been raised.
Kansas to Enter Four In Valley Conference Field Meet in Columbia
War Takes Such Toll It Is Un certain How Many Will Receive Letters
Four men of the University of Kansas track team left today for Columbia, Mo., to enter the Missouri Valley conference meet being held there today and Saturday. Rice will compete in the high jump, Rodkey in the broad jump, Deewail in the mile, and Oglewie in the two-mile run. The remaining men in have either gone work and have gone home, or are unable to go to the meet on account of studies.
These four men are expected to count thirteen or fourteen points. A number of stars or near-stars from smaller colleges and universities havemen entered in this meet. Missouri with a squad of nearly 22 men should win the meet with little difficulty, although Apes and Nebraska have strong teams. The Kansas Appalachians contested four men, but Foreman in the two-mile looks like the only chance for the Farmer team. Graf of Nebraska should beat him and their is a chance that Orlevie may noh him out.
So many members of the track team this year have gone into the service that it is hard to estimate how many will get letters. The usual number is about sixteen.
K. U. has gone through the track season this year without electing a captain and it is expected that the team will elect one on this trip or next week, for this year as well as for 1919. "Dummy" O'Leary, captain-elect this year, in is aviation and has been in the army service since last spring when he enlisted in the Kansas Engineers.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 24, 1918.
Wednesday's Big Rain Counteracted Evaporation
There is no immediate danger of drought although the evaporation for month of May has been three times that of last year. With the two inch rain which fell Wednesday morning, it should be some weeks before any plants suffer lack of moisture. Prof. Charles A. Shull, who is in charge of one of the Government's Class A Standard Evaporation Stations accounts for the extremely high evaporation in three ways: high winds, high temperature and low humidity of the air. The government has established thirty of these stations since 1911 in different states and Port Rico.
By studying the reports from various sections of the country the government hopes to be able to some time be in a position to predict to some extent the weather conditions.
Wear of Kansan Gets Orders for West Point
The seventh of those who have been editors of the Daily Kansan to *in*-national service, Millard Wear of Topeka, a junior in the college, has passed examinations and has been ordered to report early in June at West Point.
Wear has been editor of the Plain Tales column, sports editor, news editor, and editor-in-chief this year, and has been on the Kansan Board two years. He is a member of the Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity of America. He has been correspondent for the Topeka Capital, the Kansas City Star, and the Lawrence Journal-World.
The War Here and Over There
The United States shipped more than a million tons of food to the Allies in March.
Official figures show that the United States Army by June 1 will have 1,898,894 men and 148,328 officers. The men include the national army, numbering 519,963, 150,000 men drafted in April, and 233,742 drafted in May.
Flat and house dwellers in London are allowed to buy the following amounts of food a week: a pound of meat, half pound of bacon, ham, or sausage, and a quarter pound of butter or butter substitute.
General Schulte of the German army, in his report before the Reichstag, May 11, said more than two million Germans have been killed since the beginning of the war. In addition to this, he said, more than 629,000 men have been disabled beyond further military duty.
An amendment to the selective service regulations announced by Provost Marshal General Crowder provides that all draft registrants must work or fight after July 1. Idlers and men in non-useful occupations, such as gamblers, waiters, bartenders, theater ushers, and possibly professional baseball players, will be given the choice of useful jobs or the army.
Germans have again bombed British hospitals and killed and wounded several hundred persons, patients and members of the hospital forces.
Correspondence-Study
Department Is Growing
Increased Number of Student Take Courses, Many Not For Credits
The correspondence-study department has closed a busy year and is now ready to start on its busiest season, according to Harold G. Ingham, secretary of the department.
There are many University students who enroll with the department during the summer months in order to get more credits. There are also many students from other colleges in Kansas, who enroll in courses they want which are not given in their college curriculum. These students who enroll are not taking courses for credit, and many are not college students.
Students who took Sociology I during the fall semester, please call for their term papers at Room 204, Administration Building—M. C. Elmer.
The largest enrollment during the past year was in English, the next largest in Romance languages. The enrollment in French has increased 80 percent over the last decade and also an increase in the study of journalism, mathematics, and Latin.
The Rota Club will hold its last meeting of the year at 1229 Vermont street Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Members are urged to attend.
Library Notice
Students are requested to return this week all books which they have out of the University Library.
There was an increase of 117 in the enrollment in the department over that of last year. This year, 1,357 have taken courses in the department while last year there were only 1,220.

THE WAR'S RECOMPENSE
The original of this verse was found on an American soldier who bravely fought and as nobilly died. The man is yet unknown.
Ye who have faith to look with fearless eyes
Beyond the tragedy of a world at strife,
And know that out of death and night shall rise
The dawn of ampler life.
Rejoice, whatever anguish rend the heart,
That God has given you a priceless dower,
To live in these great times and have your part
In freedom's crowning hour.
That ye may tell your sons who see the light High in the heavens—their heritage to take— "I saw the powers of darkness put to flight, I saw the morning break."
"Kansas Engineer" Out; Annual Number Filled With Many Articles
Technical Subjects, Honor Roll And News Items Make Up Publication
The 1917-1918 Kansas Engineer is off the press! Exactly ninety-five pages of interesting material from cover to cover for the information and pleasure of Engineers, alumni, men in the service, and outsiders. The editor of this year's publication, P. P. Wagstaff, discusses the last few months to give the engineers a magazine full of interest to them as engineers.
There are three leading articles in the "Engineer," one by B. L. Wolfe, 63, associate professor of mining, engineering, on "Mining in Kansas." He emphasizes oil production in the Augusta and Eldorado fields which in 1917 alone yielded 37,986,670 barrels of oil, at a value of $65,000;000, on 1917, 7,500,000 tons being mined in 1917; the value of lead and zinc in the Galena district, and of the many other minerals being mined in the state. The article is of interest to every citizen in the state.
"The Recovery of Casing-head Gasoline," by J. J. Bakowsky, e20; is a story of how gasoline is recovered from casing-head gas told in a technical, yet intelligible enough for the average layman to understand. The third big article deals with "Present Development of Electric Power Transmission." A professor of electrical engineering. It gives an account of the spread of transmission lines to all parts of the state including the rural districts.
P. P. Wagner, editor-in-chief; Ernest Pickering, assistant editor; R.W. Warner, circulation manager; Clarence Lynn, business manager; C.K. Matthews, assistant business manager; George DeVoe, advertising manager, and Prof. F.R. N. Raymond, advisory member editorial board.
"Field Notes" contains articles on "Sanitation," "Drainage and Irrigation in Kansas," "Kansas Highway Commission," "Oil and Gas Developments," written by K. U. graduates.
This issue is number four of the Kansas Engineer, published annually.
The men responsible for this year's issue of the "Engineer" are;
The "Societies" of the Associated Engineers are given several pages, and the Campus Notes gives a complete account of the Engineering School, its various departments, and its connection with war work. This department should be of interest to every man in high school as it might help him determine which field of work he should enter.
Among the illustrations of the magazine are pictures of Dean P. F. Walker, Lieutenant-Colonel of Engineers, N. A., the late Captain Ernest Charles Seward, the first艇长; Charles Seward, of the class of 19, killed by a fall in an airplane.
The Honor Roll of the magazine gives a complete directory of all the alumni and former students in the service, and this makes the "Kansas Engineer" a necessary volume for every engineering student in the school, and all alumni.
Class Day This Year To Include Two Meals Served on K.U. Campus
Breakfast and Senior-Alumni Luncheon Will be Saturday Near Fraser
Class Day, Saturday, June 1, will include two outdoor meals on the campus near Fraser Hall, Warren Wattles, president of the senior class, said this morning. The first will be a senior breakfast at 8:30 o'clock in the morning, and the other the senior-alumni luncheon at noon.
Two different tags will be sold, one for breakfast and one for luncheon. They will be sold when the caps and gowns are given to the seniors. The time and place of this will be announced later.
"The price charged for the breakfast tag," said Wattles, this morning, "will be but about half of the cost of the breakfast. The balance of the cost will be paid out of the senior class treasury. I want all seniors to get tags for themselves for the breakfast and the ones for the noon luncheon when they get their gowns, so that we will know how many will be there."
Following the breakfast will be the Class Day exercises, with the smoking of the pipe of peace and accompanying exercises. It is "pipes" of peace this year, according to Wattie, for separate individual pipes will be furnished.
Morgan, Annual Editor,
Leaves for Service
Another Kansan editor has been called into the service. Harry H. Morgan, c'18, former Kansan editor, has been ordered to report for service in the national army Saturday at Camp Fonstun. Morgan tried four times last summer to enlist but was refused because of defective hearing. This, however, did not keep him from being moved by the draft board.
Last summer Morgan worked on the Kansas City Star, and returning from there he remained with the Kansan until he was called. Mr. Morgan worked up to the last moment as editor of the Jayhawker before leaving for service. He was a member of Alemannia, an active member of Sigma Delta Chi, the honorary journalism fraternity. He was also an Owl and a member of Sachems, honor senior society.
Morgan, along with Don Davis, was he first freshman to make the Kanan Board. Since then he has worked steadily on the paper for the last our years. Last semester he held the position of student helper, endeavored to teach the students with his coy copy who had just begun the course in Journalism.

Seismograph in Blake
Records a Long Quake
Sigma Tau, honorary engineering society, will award a medal next fall to the freshman engineer having the highest scholarship. The medal is of gold and attached to a watch fob.
The seismograph in Blake Hall yesterday morning recorded an earthquake shock which it is estimated was about 1,170 miles, and the probable location was in California. The vibration of the main wave was so intense that the maximum motion of the needles was slightly more than an inch.
The primary wave came at 7:01:40 o'clock, the secondary wave at 7:04:53 o'clock, the main wave at 7:07:01 o'clock. The end of the record came at 8:25 o'clock, making the record last nearly an hour and twenty-four minutes.
Plain Tales From The Hill
Last day o'r school, kid!
You won't have to dress a la fire horse, bolt your breakfast, hurry up the Hill, and arrive breathless and without the lesson any more. At least, not for several months.
This theory, given by a man on the Hill, whose ethics are above question, may be of use to the student whose papers are not in: "Art that conceals itself is the best kind of art."
Prof. B. F. Moore: "Hang around my hotel lobby for A while, and listen to the men between thirty-five and fifty tell what they would do if they could only fight. You will be convinced that the war came ten years earlier. Now you are indulging putting the greatest fighting generation on lobby in uniform."
And there was rejoicing, for was there not calf, un-Hooverized and ready for the sacrifice, standing on the front porch?
The dark hours of Thursday night, fast approaching Friday morning, brought unto the Kappa porch a calf. Members of the Kappa, squeeping out of the windows, saw human forms with handkerchiefs covering their faces. A few hours later it humored these forms had some connection with the coming of the calf.
Tied to the railing, the animal stood meekly while the sisters petted it. Then came the rescue, and the rejoicing.
"Some students are like wheelbarrows," said a professor of Greek recently. "They go no farther than they are pushed."
We had a wonderful story for this space. But Evelyn Rorabaugh promised us a trip to Brick's to suppress it, and we are always susceptible to food. *
"A stick of gum in the tin foil was worth two wads of it on a theater seat." Thus soliloquized Ed Mason this morning.
The reason: Thursday night Mason kipped cramming and went to the picture show. He laid his gum on a table, then drown on the seat, und on the gum.
Heard while going into the food conservation lecture, "Shall we sit lown front, Marjorie, or do you want a write a letter?"
There are many compensations for going to war. Harry Morgan, who is in the next draft, has so many dinner invitations he can't accept them all. People are saying such nice things about him, that he almost feels as if he were dead.

Benefit Brings In $300
For French Children
Dancing of* Miss Topping and Her Class Pleased Well Filled House
The benefit for the Fatherless Children of France given at the Bowersock Theater Thursday night was well supported by the patriotic people of Lawrence.
The total receipts amounted to more than $400, but were reduced to $366 after the war tax had been paid. From this amount a number of expenses must be paid, which will leave about $300 net proceeds.
Credit must be given to Helen Topping for the success of the entertainment. Miss Topping's efforts were given absolutely free, as was the work of her class. She paid the expenses of herself and her class while in Lawrence.

FRIDAY, MAY 24, 1918
The war; nothing else matters.
LOOK HERE, SON!
Mr. Freshman:
Mr. Freshman;
When you left home for college, the home town folks were pretty proud to see you go. You told them every one good-by and shook hands with the baggage man, and said, "So long Jack," to the station boy.
Then you stepped into a new world,—college. It's been quite a bit different and you have changed too, somewhat. K. U. hopes the folks will see it, but don't try to show them or tell them. Sure, you have been to college, but they have been right there in the best place in the world for all this time. Find out about it, and them, and all the kids, and everybody, and everything.
After all, the home town folks are the folks that count. They are all interested in you, every single one of them, and you are going to be mighty glad to see them, every single one. Ask them all, "how they're comin'", and shake hands with the baggage man and say, "Howd'y Jack," to the station boy.
Take them K. U.'s message. Be democratic!
LAST TOKENS
They sat down and broke bread for the last time that all would be together. They had scratched their respective endowments of wool and had shot their respective shares of Kansan space for one tremendous year of journalistic co-partnership. This was the simple meeting of the Kansan Board.
They did not express pride in achievement, nor did they exchange sympathy for mutual burdens. They had produced a daily paper, expressing in it the life of a great university community. They had viced the feelings and thoughts and ideas as well as the activities of all the people in that university as impartially as they knew how. Only they had selected what was worth while for all to know on a basis of what all would be interested in. Some things of course were left unsaid. There was job enough to say what was said.
No one claimed to have produced a masterpiece during the year, or even to have done consistently good work either as writers of journalistic style and form or as representatives of those for whom they wrote. They had done the best they could have done, however, in the face of what every exacting day required of them. They had carried on the labor of past years.
Now they laid it down, with smiles of farewell one for another, and with a song to old K. U. They kept the Kansan going. They beqeaited it, to those who should follow on. And
as they departed they laid it upon their successors ever to stand and make the paper stand for the best, there can be for the University and the best state in the Union that made the University possible for its sons and daughters.
DUE K. U.
At one time the University of Kansas held its own among the state universities of highest national prestige. Today it ranks seventh in enrollment and thirty-ninth in professors' salaries. There is a reason for this fall from what Kansas originally built into the state's cultural center.
There is but one reason and that is the inadequacy and uncertainty of appropriations to secure and maintain proper and sufficient equipment and teaching power. The equipment is obvious. The legislators come down to see it occasionally and then forget it until they come next time. Not that K. U. is importunate. K. U. is deserving. People out over the state know this from results in their own communities,—results from the institutions as it now has to be.
Probably the hardest story to tell, however is the shameful record of salaries lower than thirty-eight other like institutions. What sort of place the fortiettin down must be, and what sort of faculty it must have—some derelicts and the best brainy but impoverished idealists possessed of some sympathy from others but no proper support. At the Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin which have a millage tax support, world-wide known professors become permanent parts of the institution. Such men given decent means from their livelihood have time to do research work and grow in teaching power as well as advance knowledge in their particular fields.
But what can be done at the University of Kansas? What is there to do with? Who wants to stay long enough to do it—who wants to linger on anyway except some profound idealists who are giving themselves to public service and a measure of public ingratitude? Begin something—and then have appropriations cut. Be doing something and have appropriations cut. What's the use? Plug along, just plug along, that's about all that can be done as things are now.
But things have got to change. And the Permanent Income Bill is going to change them if it can only go through. It will mean, K. U.'s fair share of proper equipment in buildings, apparatus, and facilities for educational progress. It will mean that K. U. will have a fund aside on which to depend in cases of emergency, on which to draw when it must swing ahead in some new direction in response to the demand of the people of Kansas.
Most of all the new order will mean emancipation from political prejudices. Once out of such toils the University can take its place once again with the best universities of the country. Men and women will come in greater numbers to get better education from well trained men who can and will stay and grow with the institution. At the same time economy will be greater in proportion to results achieved.
It is open to senior students in technical courses or graduates of technical schools. After this intensive training the graduates are eligible for the lowest grade of ship drafting under the Navy department. The plan is to develop them in the government drafting rooms.
A special short course in naval architecture, of not less than six weeks, is offered by six co-educational universities of the United States, to women.
"Your contributions to the British Red Cross will be a further means of strengthening the real understanding between the United States and Great Britain." -Lloyd George.
"When one is in the zone of the armies or in the supply areas, words of appreciation or praise for the American Red Cross seem superfluous." -General Petain.

FOR PEACE
'Oler the stretches of the sea,
Born on winds so fair and free,
Distant fearful marmurs come.
Blare of trumpet, roll of drum;
Shouts of warriors, cannon's roar;
Crash of armies shakes earth's floor
Faintly and more faint y grows
T'h sound of battle; on it goes—
POET'S CORNER
Then a vision comes to me
From those lands across the sea;
Tear or widow, orphan's cry
Rising upward to the sky.
O, how long must this endure—
Glory, every nation's lire!
Rather may the slogan be
Progress, Peace, Humanity.
—Gounoud Stoloff.
CONTEMPORARY OPINION
The value of the Red Cross to the American nation is not measured merely by the assistance which it is rendering to the official war machine. The propaganda which it has been conducting throughout the country and its extraordinary success in securing popular support has formed one of the two or three most compelling causes of the increasing moral union of the American people in respect to the war. Its propaganda has had the peculiar value of emphasizing the more positive and humaner aspects of war service. It has fastened the minds of everyone, participating in the Red Cross organization or contributing to it, on the intelligent performance of a colossal social task. It has been forming out of a considerable portion of the American people a voluntary co-operative society for preventing the war from inflicting any more suffering than can be sustained, and civilians of France and Italy. Thus it affords civilian patriotic feeling an immediate and a wholesome outlet in essentially philanthropic work, and so converts it into a valuable preparation for the healing ministrations of peace. It is perhaps the most salutory exigating expression of that better nationalism which is not easy to keep alive in the poisonous atmosphere of war, and which whether in war or in peace constitutes the formative and binding influence in American life—New Republic.

L F. Weatherwax Sends Thanks to Glee Club
In Letter to Manager Marie Buchanan He Praises Work Of Women
A letter received by the manager of the Woman's Glee Club from the camp social secretary at Camp Funston, praises the club.
"I wish to add my thanks to those of Mr. Weatherwax for the co-operation and cheerful response that the girls have made this year whenever called upon to appear," said Marie Buchanan, manager, this morning. "I also want to thank the students, townpeople, and especially the Masons of Lawrence for their aid in making this trip possible, and in making the year 1917-18 the best that the club has ever known."
Marie Buchanan:
The letter from Funston follows:
Marie Buehanan:
Greetings to you and your fine group of women of the Kansas University Glee Club. I have heard so many fine things about your work here and want to take this opportunity of expressing the appreciation of all the men as well as of myself. You covered yourself with glory, for all the men there are still thanking us for your program and I want if possible to pass it on to you. It isn't an easy thing to please a large audience of soldiers and I feel that you did it with perfect ease.
I wanted to tell you all good- bye and thank you all personally
• for your fine contribution to this camp.
Will you please extend our heartiest thanks to all who came and to those who made your coming possible. I trust that we shall be able to repay you in some way at some future time.
Very truly yours, F. WHATHERWAY

Pessimistic Predictions
About Food Prove False
When the food administration was organized shrewd political observers predicted freely that Mr. Hoover's tenure of office would be brief. It was urged that all manner of interests would find themselves aggrieved by food regulations. It was predicted that farmers would be discontented with the price-fixing plan of the food administration and would reduce production. Millers and bakers were expected to cry out against the plans for regulating their margins and the distribution of supplies. It was further predicted that the food administration would fail of substantial results because it had not the effective force to check waste and control prices to the ultimate consumer. Fortunately for the American people, all these predictions have proved false. The farmers may think the price of wheat too low, but they have sown a greater acreage to wheat than ever before in our history. With a tolerably satisfactory season we shall have a large surplus of export to our allies. The millers and bakers have as a rule accepted Hoover's decrees without inquiring too closely into the question whether they could really be enforced. There is not a shadow of doubt that the ultimate consumer gets his bread much cheaper than he could have obtained it if we had relied upon the free play of competition for our price regulation. Out of a nation of wasters we have been transformed into a people who regard the waste of food as a sin. War bread is on every table, and the wheat thus saved has been shipped in great volume to our Allies. Hoover has succeeded beyond the hopes of his friends and his enemies have been confounded.—Nev Republic.
ALL WITHIN TEN YEARS
It is difficult to believe that only ten years ago today the Wright brothers made their first short flight with a heavier-than-air machine on the beach at Kitty Hawk, N. C. Today the skies over the battlefields of Europe are filled with airplanes fighting each other and from great heights dropping bombs upon the enemy, and workmen are preparing for the inauguration next week of the war in Afghanistan between Washington, Philadelphia and New York. Truly these are speedy times!—New York Herald.
STANDING THE GAFF
This country is going through a period such as England experienced during the early days of the war, a time when the normality of life is being interfered with, and people are liable to become disturbed and uncertain of themselves and troubled about affairs. Because we are creatures of habit and wedded to a wonted environment, innovations and the disaffected mind of which we areainted are calculated to trouble us. But to cry aloud and sit in gloom because of the untoward, however much we may dislike it, is to be mastered by circumstantes and not to master them, to exhibit weakness and fail in strength—Springfield Republican.

Jayhawker Baseball Season is Completed; Only Three Victories
Team of New Material Was Able To Win Only One Conference Game
Slawson Did Best Hurling
Fielding and Batting Greatest Faults—Many Men Back for 1919
The Jayhawker baseball season is over. Because of rains, the last two games of the final Missouri series were cancelled, making a total of five conference games during the year called-off because of rain.
The season as a whole was not a success for six of the nine games played were lost. But the team played good baseball in spots, and hard luck was in part responsible for some losses.
ONLY ONE VETERAN PLAYER The team played throughout the season with only one veteran, Capt. Wardie Weltmer, and he did not play in four of the conference games. Every member of the team, with the exception of Bob Isenberger, second baseman, will be here again next year unless the war interferes, as six of the nine regulars this year were sophomores.
sophomore.
One of the chief weaknesses of the Japanese nine has been in hitting, Cherry, Lonberg, and Weltmer were the only consistent hitters although Bunn, Oyster, and Foster hit fairly well during the latter part of the year. Another big hole on the team has been the pitching staff. This department promises to be strengthened next year, however, and the 1919 team, with the cream of this year's freshman team to help the 1918 team, should stand high in the Missouri Valley.
ONLY ONE CONSISTENT HURLER
Slawson was the only hurler to have a conference win to his credit the other slabman hurling defeats in two starts. Slawson won the opening Ames game here and had an easy time defeating the Normal team on McCook. His work in the Normal game at Emporia was the only good pitching of the three who worked in the tie game there.
SPORT BEAMS
Dobson of Winfield, and Norton of Kansas City, Kan., shared honors for the two best records made in the meet. Dobson vaulted 11 feet 4½ inches, and Norton made 5 feet 10 inches in the high jump. Norton's feat is remarkable considering the fact that he weighs 190 pounds.
John Wellborn, half miler from Baker, was on hand for the Kansas-Nebraska meet to watch McMahon and Murphy run the半马. Wellborn, McMahon and Murphy look like the winners in the half in the Valley meet to be held Saturday at Columbia, Mo. Wellborn has made the best time of any of the three in previous meets this year, having run the distance in two minutes in the Kansas Conference meet.
The Daily Kansan sport writer established nearly a record for himself Friday when he predicted a Nebraska victory by a 49 to 60 score. It was too conservative, but only 9 points off, the Cornhuskers winning in the mud by a 69 to 40 count. It also was the closest meet of the year for Kansas.
Kansan Board To Have
Alumni Meeting Yearly
New Plan Suggested by Profes sor Loud at Board Dinner Thursday Night
At the Kansan Board dinner last night in the Oread Cafe banquet rooms, the plan was proposed and will be worked out to have an alumni group of the old members of the Kansan Board, who will meet to talk over old times each year.
Mary Smith, editor-in-chief, was toastmaster and called upon different members for speeches. Dorothy Cole and Alice Bowley represented the seniors and Millard Wear and Lawson May the juniors. The tatter, with his humor, spoke of the women taking over the work of the Kansan.
"If the Kansan can be made to pull through next year and save a little we will put in a large Liberty Bond for the Kansan," said Prof. L. N.
Flint, head of the department of journalism. Prof. G. C. Loud gave a short informal talk. Fred Rigby spoke for the business management of the office and W. B. Brown represented the mechanical department.
Professor F. H. Sibley In Charge of Draft Men
The training of the draft men to be sent here this summer, will be in charge of Prof. F. H. Sibley, of the School of Engineering. Men who will assist in the instruction are: Prof. M. E. Rice of the department of physics, J. J. Jakowski, and Willis Beltz. There has been no definite arrangement of courses, but plans will be made soon.
H. Lyle Goes To Aviation Harold Lytle, who left May 1 for Washington to take a position in the Bureau of Standards, declined to ask exemption from military service, and has enlisted in the inspection department of the aviation section of the signal reserves corps.
Three Students Dishonest
At a meeting of the Disciplinary Committee Thursday afternoon two freshmen were found guilty of doing dishonest work in Economics I. The two students were failed in the course and forced to make five hours credit in addition. At the same meeta sophomore was found guilty of doing dishonest work in a German I class, and was failed in the course and forced to make three hours extra credit.
Grades May Be Obtained Earlier by Using Cards
Students wishing to have their grades sent to them earlier than the usual time for sending may do so by leaving post cards at the registrar's office before they leave, according to George O. Foster. By doing this grades will be received in the early part of the summer.
Post cards must be self-addressed and stamped. The names of the courses taken and the hours must be put on the card, and the grades will be filled in after them before the regular grade reports are sent out.

Copy of Jayhawker Put In Kansas War Records
As a contribution to the war records and the history being written of the University of Kansas, the manager and editor of the 1918 Jailhawyer have given a copy of the book to Prof. M. W. Sterling, the K. U. historian. It is to be preserved as a part of the publications showing what the University has done in the war. Other books probably will be contributed to this collection so that as complete a record as possible can be obtained through the publications before the history itself is written.

Exceeding its quota of $2,000 by $464.13, in the Red Cross campaign which ended Saturday, the University was granted three honor flags for subscriptions turned by members of the University. The university also subscribed to their flag with 100 per cent subscribing to the Red Cross fund.
The men of the faculty and employees had 95 per cent of their force who donated. More than 75 per cent of the School of Engineering have given money to the work of the Red Cross.
K. U. TOTAL IS $2,946
The total subscription for the University amounts to $2,946.13, according to figures given out by the committee Monday. Of this amount $1,958.83 has already been paid up. Women of the University have given the men $643.34, and faculty and employees have contributed $1,591.71.

a team of engineering students under Prof. F. E. Johnson stationed about the campus Friday collected students as they came up to classes.
The Douglas County committee submitted a quota of $1,088 based on the faculty only. Together with the employees K. U. exceeded this amount by $603.71. The University finance committee decided on a quota of $2,000.
TO REPORT DELINQUENTS
A list of the faculty and students who have not given to the minimum set by the Douglas County committee will be compiled and held until the end of the week, June 1, when all names will be turned into the Douglas County executive committee with the statement that a careful personal campaign had been impersonated but afforded them to give. The list will then go to the Council of National Defense for file.
The campaign was gratifying to the committee especially as to the financial contribution of the students.

Prof. Hood Invents Autograph Attachment Device Has Been Patented and Accepted By the Eastman Kodak Company
A little autographic device for film pack kodaks invented by Prof. George J. Hood, instructor of drawing in the School of Engineering, has been patented and sold to the Eastman Kodak company.
Professor Hood has been working on this device at odd times for several years. It requires no change of the pack or of the kodak. After the exposure the slip is pulled out and the attachment with the inscription written upon it is placed between the two lenses of a light shining through the device, which is partly transparent, makes the autograph in a few seconds.
There are 150 autographic devices with patents pending in the patent office. The Eastman Company has twenty patents on autographic devices but can not use a single one for the film pack kodak.
Bryn Mawr Will Train Women in Welfare Work
Bryn Mawr College will lopen this summer a special term for the training of young women for work as supervisors of welfare conditions in large factories and government industries. Applicants for entrance must have had courses in sociology and economics. A paper on the training will be given at Bryn Mawr and at factories. There is great demand for supervisors of this kind and those taking the course are practically assured of good positions. The term will open about the first of July.

Prof. G. C. Loud rendered himself inaccessible to interviewers on arrival as only experienced newspaperman can. But, as he finishes his first semester and goes back for a summer at an Eastern newsdesk, he feels mellow. He loops up for the Kansai who is now almost a grown bear.
"Yes, I like Kansas," he said, with real reflection—"got to know Kansas before you can appreciate a Kansan. Best American I've seen yet—this Kansan. He is he pioneer stock. Kansan shows what he has done and what he can do. Moreover, he is doing it still."
KANSANS ARE WEATHER-MADE
Then the professor growled about the Kansas weather, said he never expected to find Boston mugginess, Sahara heat, Asiatic typhoons, and Alaskan frigidity on successive days.
He insisted that the Kansan is made by his weather.
"So wary, so expectant, so adjustable to circumstances, so contemplative, so glad, so sad, so given to fighting for his rights, so achieving, so forgiving—all because of the weather."
"And the Kansan is sentimental underneath, too," said Mr. Loud. "I'll gamble on every last one of them writing verse on the quiet once in a while and slipping it away where no one will ever find it. It he is modest and shy. He wants to like people and he wants to be liked. Needhn't worry, he's the most likeable fellow on earth. He can't help it."
The professor hdr a word for K. U.
too, saying he grudged the said:
the facet is hard. The student
the state has done more for them than they can repay
in all their lives. The men are solid
and fine; the women are intelligent
and alert; both are natural and
wholesome. They will do things.
Because for what they are and for what
they will do—Kansas is responsible.
And Kansas is good, all good."
In token of leave, Professor Loud growled again. He was regretful.
"They won't be so hospitable back East. They can't be. They mean well. I'm one of 'em and I mean well. But I'm afraid they'll never equal Kansans for open-hearted, frank man, to man give and take. Why, one Kansas can call another a liar in a friendly, casual sort of way, tell the truth, and cement a lifelong relationship!"

Tendered Resignation Takes Effect July 1—Two Final Official Acts
Eustace Brown Resigns As Women's Adviser; She Will Raise Bees
Had Been Here Four Years
K. U. Women's Dean Was Active in Supervision and in Club Work
Mrs. Eustace H. Brown, adviser of women at the University of Kansas, has resigned from this position and will leave soon for St. Joseph, Mo., where she will go into the bee culture business with her husband. Mr. Brown is already in business at St. Joseph, Mo., having received a certificate of recognition. She has tendered her resignation to the University to become effective, July 1.
Mrs. Brown came to the University here in February, 1914, specifying that she should remain only in the office her success in filling the position.
MAKES TWO LAST PLEAS
Among the last of Mrs. Brown's official acts will be the recommendation to the Committee of Women Student's Interests, of which she is chairman, that they ask the Woman's Pan-Hellenic Association to curtail the time and expense of rushing season next fall, and a recommendation to the University Senate at a meeting Tuesday afternoon that in the future all dances close at 12 o'clock.
"I came here with faith in the young people of the University and I leave with knowledge," said Mrs. Brown, this morning in speaking of her resignation. "I am leaving the university to go into bee culture in the near future near St. Joseph, Mo., as soon as I can find a place for a bee farm."
FEELS QUALIFIED FOR JOB
"I feel entirely qualified to raise bees," said Mrs. Brown, with whimsical humor, "from having been rendered immune to prickly stings by five years of experience with students at K. U. But they can never be young but once."
"The idea of bee culture was brought to my mind by a woman student who came to me to ask advice about taking it up as an occupation. I want very much to become a producer, and I think bee culture will be important for the happiest woman on the hill—but of course I shall miss the students."
SHE CAME HERE IN 1914
Mrs. Brown came to the University of Kansas as adviser in 1914. She was born in Mitchell, Ill., in 1865. She attended the old Central High School in Indianapolis, Mo., the South Carolina Normal College, and the University of Kansas. She was married to Eustace Henry Brown in Kansas City, Mo., in 1887, and came to Olathe in 1894.
been the organization of the Association of Roaming House Landladies for women students, and the State Conference of Deans of Women of Kansas, which has had its third meeting.
She has one son, Marley Roberts Brown, who was graduated from the K. U. School of Law in 1914. Mrs. Brown's mother, Mrs. Jane Marley, had a master's degree from the Academy for Women at Blohmongkol University in Mitchell, Ind. It was one of the first in that part of the state.
MRS. BROWN A BIG ORGANIZER When Mrs. Brown came to the University, she had to resign the Hostesship for the State Department in order to accept the position here. Among her many activities in the last four years, has
She is a member of the Kansas Council of Women to consider new state legislative measures, and from 1908 to 1910, she was president of the Kansas Federation of Women's Clubs. During her administration, the Federation raised a $10,000 scholarship fund with which to send young women to the State University. Mrs. Brown sent the first woman.
She is also a member of the Traveling Libraries Commission and the Board of Directors of the State Conference of Charities and Corrections. She edited a department—"Circle Feminine," while Samuel Seaton was editor of the Olathe Register.
Decoration Day Proclamation
The President of the United States has asked the nation to observe Decoration Day, May 30th, in solemnity and in the spirit of prayer. Let us decorate the graves of our fallen heroes with floral emblems of affection and there pause to reflect that it is due to them we owe the liberty we enjoy, the preservation of our homes, and our freedom; for it is they who laid down their lives that the nation might live.
More than 500 University students and faculty have failed to pay pledges made to the Y. M. C. A. Friendship Fund made last Fall. They promised to pay when they heard of the great need. They listened when the Y. M. secretaries urged them to pay immediately. Pledges wouldn't do any good. It was money that was needed to meet the great need of the prisoners of war and of American canonets. And if money was not forthcoming much avoidable suffering and death would result.
YOU PAY UP
The months for making good the pledges passed and still the money is not paid. The need is more urgent now. And this money must come from the people who stay at home. If they fail in their duty much will be irreparably lost. If the 500 K. U. people who have failed to keep their promise to the army fail to pay, part of the blame for this loss will be their's.
So pay up—before you leave school—to keep your promise to the army and to redeem the honor of the school.
"Sight Seeing Tour" To Be Big Feature of Commencement Days
Let business cease for the day. Crowd our churches in reverence and ask God to direct the boys "on the line" that they may press confidently forward and win for the world a lasting peace—and forever more—freedom.
Let our prayer pledge anew our utmost support to those who today are facing the supreme sacrifice, and that every man, woman, and child be given grace to stand solidly behind the boys who are keeping aloft the banner of freedom across the seas.
An interesting feature of the commencement program this year will be the opportunity offered for a "Sight Seeing Tour" of the University. Many buildings contain exhibits of interest. The Museum of Mammals and Birds is one of the most notable staffs of forty-five family groups of North American mammals in their natural surroundings in panorama form. This exhibit is the most complete and elaborate of anything of the kind in any college in the world. The 2,500 mounted birds form a small part of the vast collection.

War Hits Plans of University Faculty for Summer Vacation
High Railroad Fare and Need For Conservation Prevents Many Summer Trips
Summer Session Uses Many
.
Mechanical and Science Professors Work In
The war has affected even the vacations of the members of K. U.'s faculty. Pew of the instructors are planning their customary summer trips this year, chiefly on account of conditions brought about by the war. The high cost of railroad fare and the absence of the usual excursion routes will prevent them from traveling this summer, while others say it is a patriotic duty to remain at home and help conserve the nation's supply of coal and other materials.
MANY TEACH THIS SUMMER
A large number of University
instructors will find employment in
teaching in the summer session
school, some teaching for four weeks
and others for only four weeks or
for six weeks. Eighty-two members
of the faculty will remain in Law-
rence and do this work.
Among these are Dean J. W. Green of the School of Law, Dean F. W. Blackmar of the Graduate School, Vice-Chancellor W. L. Burdick, O. H. Hamilton, head of the department of physical education, Prof. Arthur A. Gaynor, head of department of public speaking, Prof. H. C. Thurnau, head of the German department, and Prof. L. N. Flint, head of the department of journalism.
JOURNALIST PROFS TO PAPERS
In the department of journalism, nearly every instructor, with the exception of Professor Flint, who remains for the summer session, will find employment on a newspaper or other publication for the summer. Prof. G. W. Rice intends to work for the Boston Transcript, and Prof. W. A. Dill plans to work for the Associated Press in Kansas City. Prof. S. O. Rice intends to go east and write for publications there. Prof. W. B. Brown will teach in the University Press at Cambridge, Mass.
Several members of the K. U. fac-
cully will go to other schools this summer to teach during the summer term. Dean D. L. Patterson will teach history at Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio. Prof H. P. Cady of the department of chemistry, will go to Leland Stanford University at Palo Alto, Calif., for senior school. Professor Cady will make the trip in his motor car, and may go by the northern route in order to witness the eclipse of the sun.
Prof. C. C. Crawford of the department of history, and Prof. M. C. Elmer of the sociology department, will teach at the University of Minnesota for the next few months. Prof. S. J. Laird will teach chemistry at the Oklahoma State Normal at Durant, Okla.
MANY INSTRUCTORS GO EAST
Prof. L. E. Sisson, after spending part of his vacation teaching in the summer session, will visit for a time at his old home in central New York, going from there to his cabin on Lake Michigan, where he will spend the remainder of the summer. Prof. S. L. Whitcomb probably will go to Colorado late in the summer spending the time in studying and writing.
MANY INSTRUCTORS GO EAST
official faculty members will engage in other lines of work this summer.
Prof. E. L. E.Kester of the department of physics, will be emeritus. Dr. B. C. Washington, D. C. of State University, Washington, D. C. Shaad of the School of Engineering will work for the General Electric Co., at Schedetecty, N. Y.
Miss Alice L. Brown, assistant instructor in zoology, will go to the Marine Biological Laboratory at Wood's Hole, Mass.
Dean L. E. Sayre of the School of Pharmacy will go to Michigan this summer, spending his vacation visiting his daughter at Ann Arbor, and at his cottage at Douglas. Prof. E. H. S. Bailey, head of the chemistry department, will go to Northport, N. J., and later to Northport, Mich.
Last Call For Equipment
Today and tomorrow is the last chance that K. U. students will have to check in athletic equipment belonging to the University Athletic Association. All equipment which the students fail to return will be charged to them, and no other equipment will be checked out to them in the future until they made good the loss. None of the athletic equipment can be held during the summer except by special permission.

Twenty Men Initiated Saturday Night Into Musical Fraternity
Xi Chapter Installed Here In 1914—Revives Activity At University
twenty candidates received initiation into the Xl chapter of Sinfonia Fraternity of America, Phi Mu Alpha, Saturday night. Phi Mu Alpha is a national honorary musical fraternity. It was established at the New England Conservatory of Music at Boston, Mass., October 20, 1898. In 1900 it became a national fraternity and there are now twelve active chapters.
The Xi chapter was installed at the University of Kansas in 1914. Charter members now at the University are Band Master J. C. McCanles, S. Skidlow, Pro. W. B. Downing, Carl Carr Executive and Claire Dirleigh.
The members initiated last Saturday are: Prof. Frank Kendrie, James Barron, Dallas Convis, Joe Daniels, Mark Eaton, Clyde Farnsworth, Carol DEforest, James Graham, Carl Gray, Charles Kolacny, Fred Lampton, Alfred Miller, Thurlow Neiswender, Howard Painter, John Pepper, Hartzell Ray, Hoyt Roush, Guy Sackett, Howard Smith and Donald Weidiman. Practically all of the men are members of the University Band.
Charles Kolacny was elected president.
Pharmics Hold Reunion On "Daddy" Sayre Day
Students of the School of Pharmacy observed their fifth annual reunion and celebrated "Daddy Sayre" Day at a banquet held at the Eldridge House last Friday night. The students were hosts of Dean and Mrs. Sayre and the pharmacy faculty.
After a regulation approved Food Administration feed, the pharmacies indulged in oratory in which they had assistance from the faculty. Dean Sayre responded and pronounced the benediction.

Must Have Sixty Hours Of College Work Here To Join Medical Corps
U. S. Surgeon-General Allows Students To Join Reserve and Stay in School
May Enlist This Week Here
Reports of Student Grades Will Be Made Twice Annually
According to the new rulings, pre-medical students will be allowed to enroll in the Medical Enlisted Reserve Corps, thereby permitting them to continue the study of medicine if they had sixty hours of college credit, including ten hours in each of the following: Physics, biology (including comparative anatomy), modern languages (French or German), and chemistry. If a student has more than five hours of conditions in the above subjects, he is not allowed to enlist.
Dr. John Sundwall of the K. U. School of Medicine returned from Washington, D.C., last week with the latest regulations issued by the surgeon-general regarding the enlistment of students in the medical reserve corps.
MAY ENLIST MAY 30-31
All students who are eligible and wish to enlist may make application at Doctor Sundwall's office in the basement of the museum between 10 and 12 o'clock on Thursday and Friday. May 30 and 31. Any students who will be eligible after completing summer school may apply for enlistment at the close of the session. All students putting in applications must have a transcript of their work to date, which may be obtained at the registrar's office.
MUST HAVE REQUIRED WORK
The new provision differs in several respects from the old ruling for enlistment in the reserve corps. Formation of the Army was filled in the School of Medicine were permitted to enlist in the corps, but now any student who has completed the required work may do so.
It is of course necessary to go on with the study of medicine, however, and anyone who may register in the draft and does not keep up his work will be dropped from the roll and will need a referee. No men in the current call of the draft will be allowed to join the reserve medical corps.
APPLY TO DEAN NOW
The ruling made last winter also allowed the dean to work with any recruiting officer, but now they must apply to the office of the dean of their school, who will take it up directly with the surgeon-general.
REPORTS MADE TWICE YEARLY Reports of the student's grades will be recorded in your child's report card.
five two or three times a year, and if the work done is not up to standard, the student will be dropped from the list.
Bursts of Biography
Salubrious Celebrities of K. U.
The Truth About Them
JOHN SHEA, CAMPUS BOSS
To K. U, and K. U, means the majority of Hill people, the name, John Shea, signifies that of a good boss, a man who gets things done.
In the winter muffed up in a gray coat giving orders curtly to workmen who are cleaning snow off the University walks. The snow gets cleaned by off noon, John Shea and the workman who is keeping track of K. U. going home for lunch, forgets such imaterial considerations as a clean sidewalk or the man who can
make the snow go. Ask K. U., though, in so many words who John Shea is, and it answers, "Why, he's the man who keeps the buildings and grounds in repair. Gets things done, too. Must be a good boss—isn't he Irish?" As superintendent of buildings and ground?, John Shea does a few more things than order snow off the walks in winter and place window lights in to windows after a ninety-mile gate overseeing the Hill. Builds overseeing the ordinary repair work, he has supervised the landscape gardening on the campus, the reroofing of Fraser Hall, laying of walks, such as the cut-off; and now is busy with the construction of Administration Building.
KEEPS PLANTS IN SHAPE
Perhaps his hardest work is in keeping in good condition the heating and power plants. The business of buying coal does not end by writing an order to Leavenworth for the University's usual allotment. As a matter of fact, Leavenworth furnishes us little coal now. And so Mr. Shea has to keep on the look-out the year round ordering coal where he can, and when it arrives in town, getting it hauled. What duties apply to the Hill, apply to Rosedale, too.
What John Shea would like to do is to "fix this place up the way it ought to be"; plant more landscape gardens, pave the driveways, build fireproof buildings, clean out the dandelions, and then "find some place else to fix up." If the present appropriations continue, it will be to-

norrow or maybe day after tomorrow
before he jets this place "fixed up"
to be in the basement.
IN PACKING BUSINESS EARLY
To begin with, he went into a pickle factory. Then he was graduated to the Job of office boy in the John Cudahay Packing Co. in Wichita and from moved up gradually to the position of superintendent for the Corn Belt Packing Co., Fort Dodge, Ia.
Between Wichita and Fort Dodge, he worked in Omaha, Kansas City, Nashville, Louisville, and Chicago. He is an engineer, learned it in night schools, but since he is a natural student of the field, he has selected the latest about his particular field, mechanical and refrigerating en engineering.
DOESN'T BOSS ALL THE TIME
Outside his bossing business, he knows a little about other things, general history and philosophy and Gaelic language. He works in office hours. At least, he professes they do not interest him then.
For the last four years, as superintendent of buildings and grounds, he has kept the University in repair. He gets things done smoothly, so smoothly, in fact, that few people know John Shen is working around here at all. She hopes he can handle men. To quote K. U. again, "He's a good boss."
During office hours, he advocates work for himself and everybody else, work that the worker likes and lots of it.
"But next to opportunity itself,
comes work to make a man successful.
If he's going to succeed, he ought to be so interested in it that—well, that he won't even want a vacation."

Attend the Summer Seasons!
First 6 Weeks
Session
Commences One
Week From Today
If You've Been On the Fence
Get on the right side and go to Summer School!
WHY MEN SHOULD ATTEND THE SUMMER SESSION
The principle reason that should urge all men to attend the Summer Session is to conserve valuable time in obtaining their education, so that they can be ready to volunteer their services to Uncle Sam earlier than they could have had they not attended summer school.
Men already in the draft should attend the Summer School to be able to continue their training as a safe-guard against any possibility of being called before next fall. The courses, offered in war work are also advantageous to the training of any young man, whether or not he is in the draft.
Young men below the draft should seize the Summer Session as a positive opportunity in adding to their training before they become of age.
Maybe you're been undecided as to what to do about the Summer Session which will open one week from today, or on June 4. If such is the case, don't let the opportunity of adding five to ten hours credit to your regular standing slip by—it is something that you will appreciate next fall!
The Summer Session offers you a wide range of courses in all groups—there are no classifications as to who can enter the Summer Session—graduates, high school seniors, or freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors in the University, or even men and women who have long left school—the Summer Session is open to all of them!
K. U.SummerSession
Don't Put it off another day-decide now-that you will make the first six weeks of the summer advantageous to you, your standing and your country!
TWO SEPARATE TERMS
Enroll in Either or Both!
First Session...June 4 to July 12
Second Session...July 15 to August 9
For further information see or address Director of Summer Session, Room 119, Fraser Hall, Lawrence, Kansas.
First 6 Weeks Session Commences One Week From Today
WHY WOMEN SHOULD ATTEND THE SUMMER SESSION
But what the slogan means is that trained women will win the war--young women with a college education and training. The sooner the government receives services of these young women the sooner will come to Utopian day of victory!
"The Summer Session Is Your Patriotic Opportunity To Save Time"
"Women Will Win the War" is a frequent slogan applied to methods that will bring about a victory in the great World War.
Women then should hasten their college careers in order to give their services to their country earlier than they had planned. Obviously this can be done by attending the Summer Session since three sessions of Summer School allows the student of the University to graduate in three year instead of four! One or two sessions attendance complete the college career proportionately.

TUESDAY, MAY 28, 1918
The war; nothing else matters.
MAY 30.1918
"Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States do hereby proclaim Thursday, the thirtieth day of May, a day already freighted with sacred and stimulating memories, a day of public humiliation, fasting, prayer, and dexhort my fellow citizens of all faiths and creeds to assemble on that day in their several places of worship, and there, as well as in their homes, to pray to Almighty God —"
America's chosen leader, chosen of men, chosen of God, would kneel beside his fellow citizens and with them pray. Not first for victory of arms, but for forgiveness of sins and short-comings as a people, for purification of hearts that they may see and love the truth; and then to defend all things just and right and to purpose only those righteous acts and judgments which are in conformity with His will. Last would this people be seech the God of all peoples that He be with them as they fight for the freedom of the sons of men, and hold them steadfast to sacrifice of self to the bringing of that peace which will set the hearts of men at rest because it is founded upon mercy, justice and good will.
Hail great men of America's Past! On the day conquered to you and to the memory of what you have done for your country, behold your banner lifted so that all the world may feel its staying strength and know the will of those who bear it to carry its message, still your message, to the ends of the earth.
And to God who hears and answers prayer be rendered the supplication of this people, be given the praise and glory that unto all eternity His truth. His soul are marching on!
To make the University more efficient for war service—the Permanent Income Amendment.
GOOD BY—DON'T FORGET!
Good by friends of old K. U., you who have been here four wonderful years or more together. Go out and do what you have now go to do. Our country is asking more than it ever did before. You have got to answer with all you have.
But remember where you got what you have, with whom you got it, from whom you got it. Never falter in your loyalty to your Alma Mater. Don't forget what Oread means to you in this hour of parting. Carry the spirit of University, State and Nation as each contributes to the other with cumulative power. Carry it out to the good of common men and women. Never forget that K. U. made you to be one with and for
Take the Permanent Income Amendment with you when you go home. It's more necessary than a traveling bag
common folks all the rest of your lives. Take your place in American democracy and do your duty.
"I didn't see. I didn't hear. I don't know. I forget." These four characteristic human expressions of irresponsibility are the four things the United States Army will not listen to from a soldier. He has got to forget them and what they stand for. It is part of his training as a soldier to eliminate them from his vocabulary and the necessity of them from his life.
FOUR FORGETTABLES
The officers do not say who are the most blind, deaf, and dull. It is only reasonable to assume, however, that some of the naturally inclined unobservant, inattentive, and unreceptive recruits might have come from typical American colleges and universities. They have exhibited the same symptoms before.
The impact of war will shock most of these collegians into acute realization of what has been required of them all of their lives, but until some of them get war or something like it they never do become sensate, let alone appreciative and responsive. American colleges and universities have been profoundly touched by the war; not so have all their students. Some students have capitalized on the unrest occasioned by war to become more impervious than ever to what is now requested of them and will later be demanded of them.
For the examinations- now given to close the academic year throughout the country are by no means final. Their immediate intention is to appraise personal possession of special groupings of knowledge; their larger and really permanent significance is their test of fundamental fitness. Has the student learned how to perceive, understand, ascertain and remember? Can he practically apply these invaluable habits within the life beyond the lived walls?
These are today remarkably pertinent questions. They are between the lines of every examination. They are constituent in the big interrogation the world is putting to such as come out into it, ready or unready to meet it. It has a concrete answer to both prepared and unprepared.
When in doubt, talk Permanent Income Amendment this summer.
POET'S CORNER
Gennoud Stolloff, the author of the mystic verse appearing in the Kansan for a week past, is Donald Dwight Davis, whose adventures are all well known and whose latest adventure is in another column.
Stolloff Is D. Davis
The poems were written when he was a freshman and verdantly innocent of what he was doing. He unearthed by friends he thought at first must be enemies and given the light of day. He declares he has since reformed and that this is positively his last appearance.
Vainly trying to look wise— Hesitating by each bakery,
With a pale and wane complexion
And a landscape on his chin;
Pacing through the city
A CONFESSION
By Goumoul Stélen
Have you ever seen a fellow
Hungry looking, very thin
And wondered where it is time
And the nature of its biz-
Listen to my own confession:
Staring at the cakes and pies?
If you wondered what it might be
Hungry looking, very thin
With a pale and wane complexion
As you gazed upon
If you wondered where it came from
"The Red Cross management here (in France) is extremely efficient and worthy of unqualified support of our whole people," says German Perching.
I shall make this one confession
And I'll tell you what it is:
And I'll tell you what to do
A Press Agent.
The Prize Winning Poem

THE LILAC HEDGE ON OREAD
HILL
The long low lilac hedge half spans the lawn.
Gem-sparkling in the noon-day's yellow light,
Dim in the shifting mist of early down.
Half-hidden in the star-stabbed dusk of night.
How many springs have seen your branches break
At April's bidding into perfumed maze
Of subtle lilac loveliness—a haze
If litling mystic fragrance in its wake.
How many hands have touched your shimmering lace,
Of love and joy and hope of youth, of
vore
You could tell us all of life—a grave or two
And now, you've listened to in silent grace.
Perhaps has felt the light caress of just
One blossom from your store—upon its dust
Tears may have mingled with your blossoms' dew.
When I am very old, I think, and friend.
And happening of my youth are dim to me.
In all its old stall beauty I shall see That long low lilac hedge on Oread Hill.

Alumni Board To Meet
To Plan Income Bill Work
- Plans for the summer campaign for the Permanent Income Bill, which will come up before the election next November, will in all probability be the main issue of the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Alumni Association, here June 3. It was learned from the office of the Association this morning that no plans had yet been made concerning summer work on the Bill.
on the 12th, will also be decided upon at the Board meeting, to take the place of J. W. Gleed, '79, of Topeka, as the University's representative on the advisory board of state institutions.
FINE ARTS RECITAL SATURDAY
The annual commencement concert will be given Saturday night, June 1,
at 8:15 o'clock in Fraser Chapel.
Any student or graduate can get invitations Friday and Saturday. Each invitation will admit one. If presented at the door by 8:15 o'clock, the holder will be admitted to reserve seats. After that hour the doors will be open to all.
If there's anything worries a woman,
It's something she ought not to
know;
But you but she'll find out anyhow
If she gets the least kind of a show
Now we'll wager ten cents to a far
thing,
This poem she's already read.
We know that she'd get at it somehow.
If she had to stand on her head.
If she had to stand on her head.

Gola Coffelt Writes of Experiences at Texas Flying Training School
Camp
Fine Arts Student Finds a Colony of K. U. Men At
The following letter was sent to Chancellor Frank Strong by Gola Coffelt, a special student, who is now training for an aviator at Austin, Texas.
Last week I received from home a letter from you, asking for information concerning my whereabouts. I think Prof. Patterson knows, but I shall give it to you now, and then tell you something of what we are doing here. Of course, I can't tel very much except in a general way.
I enlisted for aviation Service Dec
20, 1917, at Kansas City, Mo. I
reported at the School of Military
Aeronautics, Austin, Tex., April 13, 1918,
and am still here. If I am not
unfortunate I shall graduate here July
6, 1918. I think that is all my military
record. If you want other information
I shall be glad to furnish it.
A K. U. COLONY THERE
two other K. U. men reported with me here. Lind M. Anderson and Everett D. Kiefer. Carl Dietrich came a week later, and this week, Eddie Todd, Spenser, and someone else, I don't remember just who, reported. Eddie says two more are due next week, so you see we have quite a K. U. colony. There are several other K. U. students of diversity, among them J. D. Elliott, who was on the track team with Fred Rodkov.
EVERY WEEK A SEMESTER
You will pardon my using both sides of the paper, but the front side is so small, it seems a shame to use only it.
The work here is considered very hard. And it really is hard for a cadet must get everything in a lecture and be able to pass his examination every week. Every week is a semester, and is numbered, beginning with the first, "A" week. "B" week, "C" week, and so on, to "M" week. The course now is twelve weeks. The "rookies" get very little except drill in "A" week. But after the first week the academic work comes thick and fast. We study theory of flight, engines, wireless, military law and army regulations, machine guns, meteorology, maps, and, it seems, a thousand and one other things. We have from three to five examinations every week, and are held responsible for all the work we have had. So you see the cadet not only has to "cram" in each week's lectures, but must not forget those of the preceding weeks.
Reveille sounds at 6:30. We have breakfast and go out for an hour's drill at 8:00. We have classes from 9 to 12; calisthenics from 12 to 1; dinner at 1:30 'oclock. Then classes from 3 to 5, drill 5 to 6; retreat at 6:30 and supper. After supper we are free, but must be inside the reservation at 8:30. Taps sound at 11 'oclock. The one time we have to eat our lunch, we sorb some of the things offered us during the day. You see, we are pretty busy. We have Saturday afternoon and Sunday to do as we please as long as what we do does not displease the authorities higher up.
DEMERITS MAKE ORDER
The demert system is rather unique. A man must keep his wits about him at all times and notice details. For instance, poorly made bunk, shoes out of line under bunk, disorderly locker, pocket flap unbuttoned, shoes unhushed at inspection in the evening, dirty clothes, late to class or formations, absences, and goodness knows what else, bring demerits. The barracks rooms are inspected twice a day, and any cadet whose bunk or effects are not as per regulations is demerited.
If a man is demised for something for which he had a good excuse, for instance for being demised from drill when he was excused by the surgeon, he can protect them and have them removed. Otherwise they go down against his record. There is no limit to the number a man may receive except when he is exposed to danger, or something, in which case it would seem that he made no effort to correct a fault.
SEES REASON FOR IT ALL
I am trying to get into the spirit of the institution and see the reason for conditions. These men will be made officers in a short time, and the deemer system is a means to make them very careful, neat and observant of details. The aviation section is perhaps the proudest branch
of the service, and wants no slouchy men to wear the bars and wings Some of the men, very few, however, object to the strict discipline here. I dare say there is no place where it is more strict. But I believe they would not mind it so much if they would look forward to the time when they will be officers and will require discipline of the men in their charge. Everyone drills from 5 o'clock till 6 o'clock in the afternoon. I wish you could see the long line, in column of squads, coming in from the drill grounds at 6 o'clock. The line is a quarter of a mile or more in length. We now have a regiment of about 800 or 900 men, and everyone of them wants to be an aviator. Not only that, but everyone to a man is constantly under a nervous strain for fear he will flunk out and not be permitted to go even as far as the flying field.
MEN "BLOW UP" ON QUIZZES If a catlet falls into two examinations in one week, he is required to take the week over. If he fails in two again, any two, he is immediately discharged from the school. You can understand why the cadets become nervous and "blow up" when they take their examinations. They know that whether they stay or leave may depend on that particular examination. I thought it foolish when I first noticed it, but have come to understand. And really I believe that as many half the discharges or "bustouts" are caused by the very nervousness and not by lack of knowledge of the subject.
We have a nice Y. M. C. A. room.
Every Saturday night a concert is given by Austin talent. Tonight I have listened to a program by alumni of the State Institution for the Blind. It was thoroughly worth while. Last week, a Mrs. Caloh, teacher of voice in Texas Christian University at Fort Worth gave most of the program. i had the pleasure of being invited to Sunday dinner in the home where
she was entertained and enjoyed the people, the dinner and her singing. It was a treat to be allowed to talk to and hear a real musician again. What little music I hear is usually this popular trash that I can't stand.
K. U. MEN are DOING WHEN
I am glad to say that the K. U.
men here are giving good, accounts of
themselfs. Their grades are above
the average. The marks are very
high; f 100 to 160; g 80 to
90; fair or f $70 to 80; poor or
60 to 70. “Hi” Anderson and I have
received *vg* on everything so far
except this week’s quiz on machine guns
on which we both received *g*. We did not sit in adjoining seats in the examination room.

Women in Each Class Win Athletic Honors During Closing Year
Freshmen Take Swimming Meet. Sophomores Tennis, Juniors Baseball, Seniors Basketball
Each class in the University has gained one honor from the Women's Athletic Association this year. The freshmen won the swimming meet from the sophomores by one point, the outstanding feature in the meeting be speed events rather than diving, as it was last year. The sophomores won the championship in the tennis tournament, Cyra Sweet representing them in the singles and Iris Russell and Cyra Sweet in the doubles.
Winners of the interclass tournées were C. Oder, freshman; C. Sweet, sophomore; J. Parkinson, junior; M. Hodger, senior.
The juniors won the baseball series.
This is the second year for baseball,
but a large number of women were
the team's regular players. The teams
were fairly well organized.
The Women's Athletic Association has been organized only three years but 1917-18 has been full of interest and activity for its members. Several new features were introduced this year and have proved so successful that they will be continued with additions next year.
The seniors continued their three years' record and won the silver loving cup for championship in the Interclass Basketball Tournament.
The first Intramural Basketball Tournament was held following the interclass contest in which sixteen teams were entered. The Alpha Xi Delta won the championship and the Brush League was second.
A beginning was made for inter-class hockey contests in the game the first of the year between the freshman-senior and the sophomore-junior teams, which the latter won by a score of 2 to 1.
Service bars for third year activity were awarded for the first time. Six women received them. Besides the bars, service circles were awarded bright A's.
At the state high school basketball tournament in the winter, the letter women officiated and the W. A. A. entertained the players. The championship was won by the Chanute High School team which was coached by Cora Shinn, c17, who was active in athletics while in the University.
A. W., A. A. circus was given this year. Three Middies Dances and the big annual dance were also on the program this season. Three silver loving cups were awarded and one eight dollar tennis racket.
Hockey and baseball will be especially encouraged next year. If the proper materials can be obtain the department expects to begin archery, which many consider one of the major sports for women.
Martin Visits New York
Sees Old Jayhawkers
University Curator Also Goes To Pittsburg and Chicago
H. T. Martin, curator of the department of paleontology in Dyche Museum, returned Friday from New York with an interesting report of some former celebrities of the University that he met there.
A week ago Mr. Martin went to New York for a farewell visit to his son who was leaving for France. As he walked down the crowded street, a young man rushed up to him and told him there were no more grisps so typical of the West.
It was Vic Householder, c'16, now a first lieutenant in Battery A. For the past two years, he has been working in the American Museum where he has helped to get some of the recent mounts.
From New York, Mr. Martin went to Pittsburgh where he visited the Carnegie Institute of Paleontology. He had a pleasant visit with the artist of the Institute, Sidney Prentiss c'96, a man once famous on the hill. In Chicago, he spent two days with Dr. S. W. Williston, curator of the paleontology department at Chicago University. Doctor Williston is also a K. U. man.
Before he returned, Mr. Martin saw E. S. Riggs, c96, curator in the department of paleontology at "Field Columbia."

Kansas Places Third In Missouri Valley Track Meet, Columbia
Four Jayhawkers Cop Ten Points Rice Breaks Valley High Jump Record
K. U. placed third in the annual Missouri Valley track meet at Columbia, Mo., Saturday, when Missouri won the meet. The Tigers had an easy time, getting 62 points to the 39 Nebraska scored.
Kansas counted in the high jump when Rice got first place and broke the Missouri Valley record held by Nicholson of Missouri at 5 feet 11 inches. Rice went 6 feet½ inch. Osborne jumped the same height. Deewall placed in the mile which was one of the fastest events in the meet, while Rice got third in the broad jump and Ralph Rodkey fourth.
Sylvester was individual point winner with eleven points, but Scholtz was the star for Missouri and of the meet. He won the 100-yard dash in 9 4-5 seconds, breaking the former Missouri Valley record of 10 flat.
This made a total of ten points the Jayhawkers won. Only one other man, Ogleville, was entered in the meet by Kansas, and he failed to place in the two mile, a heart-breaking race in speedy time.
To Our Many Friends on The Hill—
We want to express our appreciation for their valued patronage during the year just coming to a close.
Our business is now launching into its for-ty - ninth successful year, a record for which we are indeed proud.
Again let us thank you for allowing us to serve you — we only hope that we may have that pleasure as long as you are at K. U.
