"He took a hack at the University of Kansas and ordered it to get closer to the people. He made the professors go out and lecture before the farmers' institutes and granges and tell them how to make good roads and things of that sort; he sent out the professors from the Agricultural College to cure blackleg, vaccinate for hog cholera, instruct the farmers how to beautify their homes—and be generally useful. He put normal courses in one hundred high schools."
Samuel G. Blythe, the writer of special articles, made some statements in a "feature" article on Governor Stubbs in the Saturday Evening Post this week which doubtless came as news indeed to the faculties of the University and the State Agricultural School and to many other people of the state. Mr. Blythe says of Governor Stubbs that
Mr. Blythe seems to have succeeded to a temptation which is likely to assail the writer of "leading statesmen" articles—that of giving the subject of his sketch the credit for everything good that has happened in his state since he became active in politics. It is needless to say that Governor Stubbs would be the last man to claim all that Mr. Blythe has claimed for him, and that everything mentioned in connection with the educational institutions of Kansas would have been done if Mr.Stubbs had never been governor. In fact, they began before he entered politics and the program that has been carried out is only a part of a plan of expansion that is being executed as rapidly as the growth of the schools will allow. To give the present governor the credit for the methods of the state schools to "reach the people" is an injustice both to him and to the administrative officers of the schools who have been chiefly instrumental in making the plans and putting them into effect.
It is true that Governor Stubbs has been a friend of the educational institutions and has helped them in every way he could, but the assertion that he "took a hack" at the University and materially changed the course it was pursuing is wide of the facts.
Vote for the Green.
At a meeting of the senior electrical engineers last week it was the unanimous vote, that they should follow the custom of wearing green flannel shirts in honor of the distinguished engineer of Ireland.
The junior electrical engineers have adopted the brown shirt and are looking forward to the day when they will cast aside the brown for the green.

WHY OBER'S IS FIRST WITH THE NEW STYLES
"I wonder why the other stores don't carry some of these styles," said a Lawrence business man who was looking through our newest assortment of midseason designs in Suits and Overcoats yesterday afternoon. Several people have asked the question. The reason is, as we explained to them, that this Store is an independent buyer in the world's clothing markets, having no working agreement by which we are compelled to handle a certain maker's lines exclusively. When new styles are created, no matter by what maker, we always secure them for our display, provided they are thoroughly reliable in quality and tailoring. Many a prominent manufacture, knowing that we sell more Clothing than any two Lawrence stores combined, has tried to prevail upon us to handle his product exclusively, but if we did this it would be impossible to show anywhere near as great a variety of styles as we do now. Under present conditions no city in America shows the new styles sooner than they are shown here in our Store
Every Man and young Man in quest of newer styles than are shown elsewhere in this city is cordially invited to step into this Store and examine the new mid-season styles, weaves and patterns featured in all the different priced grades of Suits and Overcoats especially strong values at—
$15.00 - $20.00 - $25.00
