The closing year has been one in which the usefulness of the University to the state has grown in many ways. The institution's sphere of activity has been broadened by the division of University Extension, which will do as much as can be done in diffusing the University atmosphere over the state, and by the creation of the new School of Education. The new school will enable the University to meet more fully its obligations as the head of the state educational system, the special pride of citizens of Kansas. Not only has the University branched out into the new fields, but it has done more and better work this year than ever before in all departments. Week after next the largest class in the history of the school will be graduated to take up the work of active citizenship in the state. The University is coming into its own as the great shaping factor of life and thought in Kansas.
Professor Ephraim Miller's farewell to the University yesterday was a "farewell" only insofar as the professor will be relieved in future from class room work and attendance at the University. As long as he lives, Professor Miller will be a part of the University of Kansas. The hearty reception he received when he arose in chapel yesterday to make his last talk before the students was significant in showing how highly his work is appreciated by the institution which he served so long and so faithfully.
With today's issue, the members of The Kansan staff close their work on the paper for the year. In the enlarged form,The Kansan has enjoyed even a larger patronage than had been hoped for. It is planned to make other improvements in the paper next year in keeping with the growth and demands of the University though at present the plans are still somewhat indefinite.

To Record Attendance.
At a regular faculty meeting Thursday afternoon, a rule was passed requiring all instructors to keep a record of the attendance of students in classes. No penalty was placed upon non-attendance, it being left to the individual instructors.
Naney Fisher, a sophomore in the College, has left school, and started on a several months' trip through Germany and Southern Europe.
Wellesley, Mass., May 26.—In accordance with a new faculty edicts no photographs of Wellesley College students who take part in college plays in male costume may be made. So far as is possible the faculty will attempt to have all existing protographs of girls playing masculine characters cut off at the waist.
The action was taken because of the recent publication of the pictures of two Wellesley girls in full male regalia, trousers and all. The photographs were made after the senior play May 10, and when they came to the attention of the faculty and the administrative board the members waxed extremely indignant.
PHOTOS CUT TO WAIST.
Wellesley Girls in Male Attire Can
have no Full Lengths Taken.
As a result whenever plays occur in the future no photographer will be admitted except an official photographer to be chosen by the faculty, and any picture he may make of the east or of the individuals will be eut off at the waist.—New York Sum.
Postponed Recital
The graduating recital of Miss Lillian Kirchoff, which was to have been held in Fraser tonight, has been postponed because of a slight illness of Miss Kirchoff. The recital will probably be held some time next week.

ART AND NEWS WRITING.
Professor Wilcox Spoke to Journ alism Class.
Prof. A. M. Wileox, professor of Greek language and literature, spoke informally to the members of the senior newspaper class this morning on the value of some knowledge of art for newspaper people. He said that there is a lack of interest in the average reader in architecture, sculpture and painting, but that a newspaper, especially in large cities might do much to change this attitude.
Professor Wileox believes that a journalistic student could acquire information from several courses in the University which would assist him in writing intelligent stories about paintings statues and buildings. Yet the best training would be secured from some actual work in the School of Fine Arts.
FROM OTHER COLLEGES.
Sixty-nine and three-tenths percent of the students attending Amherst have been engaged in athletic activities.
A class in Esperanto has been formed at Princeton, following a lecture upon that subject by Arthur Baker, editor of the American Esperantist.
