THURSDAY, APRIL 29, 1909 CONCILIATION FOR THE LAW STUDENTS The men of the University should not censure the action of the law school too much for withdrawing from all participation in the student council. The law students undoubtedly thought they had just cause for grievance and perhaps they were right in their contention. Now however with the constitutional committee recommending a mass meeting for the adoption of an amendment to the constitution making all three semester students eligible to hold office on the student council the laws should be conciliated. This was really their only legitimate contention because the other propositions they stood for concerned them no more than it did the men of the other schools. At the mass meeting to be called as soon as the council is elected the amendment will and should be adopted. And in the mean time the laws, who have some of the strongest men in the University with them, should proceed to elect good, strong men. The laws can be a power in the student council and with just a little patience they can get what they most earnestly desire. There is absolutely no reason for friction and quibbling between the different schools; and the student council will not be a decided force until all petty bickerings are swamped in the greater University idea. The high school meet on Saturday will bring over four hundred high school students to the University for a day. From these young men and women the school will draw largely for next year's freshman class. The county clubs, the fraternities and the boarding clubs should see that every high school visitor is entertained royally and made to take an interest in the institution. The winners in the different events must be cheered and encouraged and induced to come to Kansas and strengthen the track team here. The men of one organization on the hill had their picture taken for the annual while wearing large black K's. The organization is a closed corporation and were never granted the K's. If the emblem given athletes for work on gridiron, field and track is to amount to anything promiscuous wearing of the "K" must be censured. The Lawrence liverymen have been praying that it would rain tonight with so much persistence that it is said their knees are sore. University Notices. The date for the May Fete is May 8.

Dallas Hanna was more surprised than any of his friends to learn in reading in last Tuesday's Kansan that he had taken unto himself a bride. Hanna had been on a little trip to Kansas City and Southeastern Kansas and returned to Lawrence yesterday morning. One of his friends framed up the practical joke and had the announcement put in The Kansan. It is deplorable that such an embarrassing error should creep into the columns of a paper. Chemistry Class in Kansas City. Professor E. H. S. Bailey took his class in Food Chemistry to Kansas City yesterday to visit the food departments in various factories. Among other places the class visited Peet Bros.' Soap factory, LooseWiles Cracker and Candy factory, and the Smith Baking Co. At the Swift Packing plant the butterine, canned meats and sausage departments were examined. At most of these establishments University of Kansas men are employed as chemists. This trip was part of the laboratory work in Food Chemistry. --jor a course in Bookkeeping, Shorthand, Typewriting and Penmanship, Lawrence National Bank Building, Telephone 717.
