COURSES IN BIBLE STUDY
Y. W. C. A. Will Discuss Plans Tomorrow to Interest University Girls in Bible Classes
UNIVERSITY PROFSESORS WILL TEACH IN CHURCHES.
Several members of the University faculty will give courses in Bible study at the different churches of Lawrence during the present school year. At the Baptist church Prof. L. E. Sisson will have a course in the "Practical Problems of Religion." Prof W. H. Carruth will lecture on "Ethical and Religious Problems"at the Unitarian church. Dr. F. A. Wilbur will have classes at the Presbyterian church. Mr. George O. Foster, at the Christian church, will have a class on the "Life of Saint Paul." Prof C. G. Dunlap has as his subject this year "The Book of Job," at the Episcopal church.
A meeting of the Y. W. C. A. will be hee tomorrow afternoon to discuss plans for Bible study among the girls of the University for the coming year. One of the objects of the Association is to act as a medium between the girls of the University and the Lawrence churches, and to make each girl at home in the church of her choice. The young women of the Y.W.C.A. hope to arouse a greater interest in Bible study than has been shown in previous years.
Department of Geology Found Combustible Gas in Small Quantities.
TESTED GAS CLAY.
About the first of last August Prof. Haworth, state geologist, received some samples of shale and a letter from Dr. C. A. Milton of Dodge City, stating that a large amount of shale existed near Dodge City and it was believed to contain natural gas. A company was in readiness to be formed as soon as it was learned whether the shale contained enough gas to be of commercial value.
Wallace E. Pratt made tests of the shale, taking his material for the tests at random from the large sample. The first test was on 17 once of the shale ground to a powder. A second test was made on 31 once of the sample.
Both tests proved rather unsatisfactory as the gas obtained although highly combustible did not contain enough methane to run gas engines and did contain between 21 and 24 per cent of noncombustible gas. It is questionable whether enough of the gas can be produced to pay for the fuel and the other costs of production.
Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Doyle of Kingman visited Sunday with their son Lewis, a sophomore engineer. They were returning home from an outing along the great lakes.

Mr. Tom Gowenlock of the '09 law class spent Sunday at the Beta House.
HAVE DAILY CHAPEL.
Distinctive Feature of University Life Retained.
The chapel services for the present year at the University will be conducted much on the same plan as that followed last year. Changes in conditions at the University have made a few modifications necessary. More attention will be paid to the convocations Tuesday and Friday than ever before, and special time arrangements will be made in all schools of the University to permit students to attend. Chapel on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday will be confined to the regular fifteen-minute period, and as it will be impossible for many of the engineering students to be present, the services will be made as simple and brief as possible.
The problem of what to do with the chapel services in the University has been given much earnest thought by Chancellor Strong this summer. Now that the new buildings have been occupied on the west part of the campus, it is almost impossible for engineering students to reach the chapel in time for the services after 9 o'clock classes. Yet it has been the Chancellor's wish to keep the chapel services as nearly as possible as they have been in the years in which the University buildings were confined to a smaller area.
"In every large university of the east, the chapel service is purely a college function. The students of the professional and technical schools do not think of going to chapel, nor is it expected of them," said Chancellor Strong a short time ago. "The chapel service at which the students of all schools are present, and where it is possible to address practically the whole student body at one time from the rostrum, is as far as I know peculiar to our western institutions. It is one feature in which we have an undoubted advantage over eastern schools, and I am anxious not to lose this distinctive feature in the growth of the University. The daily chapel service for all who can possibly attend it will not be given up as long as it is at all practicable."
MAY PLAY HASKELL.
Supt. H. B. Peairls of Haskell Institute wishes to arrange a football game for October 16 between the scrub team of the University and the Haskell second team. The University regulars will play the State Agricultural College at Manhattan that day, and the Haskell first squad will line up against Texas State University at Dallas, Texas. It is believed that a minor game in Lawrence on that day would be largely attended.
Game Between Second Teams Considered For Oct 16.
Jermore G. Beatty, a former student of the University, came up from Kansas City last Saturday to see the football game Mr Beatty lately left the editorship of the Hutchinson Gazette to take a position on the Kansas City Star.
