PAYS WAY WITH CANDY.
University Girl Sends Brother and Sister to School.
A number of young women enrolled at the University of Kansas are paying their own expenses while attending school, but there is one who also assists others through school while acquiring an education herself.
The young woman who is accomplishing this seemingly impossible task is Miss Alberta Wenkheimer, of 1027 Mississippi street. Miss Wenkheimer came to Lawrence this fall with her brother Carl, 12 years old and her sister, Winifred 10 years old. She was confronted with the problem of making ends meet for the household while completing the necessary amount of work to secure her degree from the University.
Before coming to K. U. Miss Wenkheimer graduated from the State Agricultural College at Manhattan, receiving the degree of bachelor of science from that institution. She had specialized in candy-making in the domestic science department there, so it occurred to her to try to sell home-made candies to the students at Lawrence. Manhattan has a number of places where homemade sweets are sold, and as the students there seemed to prefer this kind, Miss Wenkheimer thought there ought to be a market here for them.
And her judgment evidently is good, for the demand for her product has increased to such an extent that the Oread cafe has arranged to put in a line of the candies she makes. The sweets will go on sale Monday morning.
In addition to doing all her own housework, cooking, caring for the children and making the candy, Miss Wenkheimer finds time to carry fifteen hours of work in the departments of English and education at the University. She has one faithful assistant, however, in adding to the family income in her little brother Carl, who sells and delivers the candy for her after his school hours.

KOHMAN TO SHOW THEM.
Master Baker to Demonstrate in the East.
Henry Kohman, who holds an industrial fellowship in this University from the National Bakers' association, left today for Washington, D. C., where he was called by a firm of bakers interested in the discovery that he has made regarding salt rising bread. The object of Mr. Kohman's experiments has been to prepare a yeast that contains at all times the necessary germ to make the bread rise, bakers now being dependent upon a spontaneous and often irregular rising method.
He has completed his work and the object of his visit to the East is to make certain practical demonstrations before firms who expect to become commercially interested in his product.

WAS WITH GEN. CUSTER.
Colonel Goldin Told Life Story to Y. M. C. A.
Colonel T. W. Goldin of the Kansas City Y. M. C. A. spoke at the Thursday evening meeting of young men in Myers hall on the subject "Down and Up." He has lived a remarkable life, and it was of his experiences that he spoke, holding the large audience in breathless silence to the end.
"The 'down' on the gridiron," he said, "is one kind of a 'down'; there is another kind of 'down,' that in which a man is gradually pushed over the goal-line of a mental, moral, and physical hell."
When Colonel Goldin joined the army, he was placed as a scout in the "Old Seventh" cavalry, under General Custer. The regiment saw service all over the west, from Montana to Arizona, and in this life young Goldin found plenty of excitement.
Eventually came Custer's last stand on the Little Big Horn. Colonel Goldin gave a most vivid and thrilling account of this memorable battle and massacre. He was the scout who carried Custer's last dispatch to General Reno for reinforcements. This saved him from the main massacre, although he was forced to hide in some bushes before he made his final escape.
The members of the Pi Phi sorority gave an at home to the members of the faculty and the wives of the faculty at their chapter house, 1245 Oread, last night. The floral decorations were chrysanthemums for the parlors and pink roses for the dining room. Light refreshments were served from 8 to to o'clock.
Students Still Carry Away Reference Books.
LIBRARY COMPLAINTS.
Some few of the students are still attempting to smuggle books out of the library contrary to the regulations which are in effect this year, and are withholding them for as long as a week at a time. The library authorities have arranged to have the building open for use from 8 o'clock in the morning till 10 o'clock in the evening six days of the week. It is thought that this should afford sufficient time for all the students to complete their reference reading and as a result a ruling has been made that no books be checked out of the library. It has been urged that one cannot obtain the books necessary during library hours, but the clerks at the building say that very few students take advantage of Saturday afternoon and evening hours.
In addition to taking the books out of of the building, complaints are being lodged against those who have a failing for marking and figuring with their fountain pens upon the margins of the pages of the books they happen to be using.
"Any such disfiguration certainly adds no value to any volume and it assuredly forms one step the book takes toward its final resting place in the basement of the library building when it is in rags. Moreover, the students have no right to abuse their volumes in such wise; they should remember that they are, as Professor Scott of the University of Michigan, who spoke in chapel recently, said, one's best friends and chums and they should be treated with respect," said a library employee today.
