The city has 6,000 population and low at the stage where large civic improvements are being undertaken. The first work undertakel will be the construction of a sewerage system. Burt was form assistant city engineer of Hute inson, and was chosen for his position from a large number of candidates.

“Graduates of higher institutions of learning positively can dominate this nation provided they allow no selfish motives to actuate them,” said Mr. Engle. “The most elemental principle in man is his religious interest, and to my mind the greatest open door for religious influence in the United States is he Sunday school. For this reason I emphasize my belief that society has no better use for the college trained man or woman than the work of a layman in our Sunday schools.”
Prof. E. M. Briggs, instructor in German, spoke before the Deutsche Herric Vercin Monday in Fraser hall on the "Passion Play at Oberammergau," which he saw last summer.

Pays Way With Candy.
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.
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.
The young woman who is accomplishing this seemingly impossible task is Miss Alberta Wenkheimer, who came to Lawrence this fall with her brother Carl, 12 years old and her sister, Winifred, 10 years old.
And her plan evidently is good, for the demand for her product has increased to such an extent that a cafe has put in a line of the candies she makes.
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.
The work of gathering clay samples for the department of geology and mineralogy will begin in earnest, now that the state auditor has allowed that item in the budget of the University to go through. Large quantities of clay will be collected and the out come of the test will be watched with interest throughout the state.

Professors Blackmar, Boynton, Hellberg and Dykstra will attend the St. Louis meeting of the American Economic Association, also the Political Science Association and American Association of Sociology.
Professors Hodder, Becker, Patterson, Crawford, and Davis will go to Indianapolis to attend the meeting of the American Historical Association. Prof. F. H. Hodder is a member of the executive council of this society.

They Even Like Plain Running
Forty men covered the cross country course at the University of Kansas in the recent race between two picked teams of twenty men each. As the men came in they were given scores in order of their arrival. The victory went to the "Reds" by a score of 446 to 375, and the winners were treated to an oyster supper. Medals were awarded to the individual men making the four highest scores. The best time made on the mile and three-quarter course was eight minutes and forty-five seconds. The University gives credit in gymnasium work for participation in the various forms of athletics, and the cross-country runs are among the most popular of the forms of sport. Travelers on country roads about Lawrence are likely to meet, even on the coldest days, a white clad figure running down the miles in the abbreviated costume of the track. The doctrine of fresh air is taught to the students and they use large quantities of the celebrated Kansas ozone. The one difficulty that the cross country runners meet is that they can not go far from the University without going down the long hill—which is all right except that it involves running back up.
A woman made the best grade in the Kansas state medical examination held recently in Kansas City, Kans. Sixty-five applicants appeared before the examining board and of this number, fifty-four passed, Charlotte Kaulbach, a student from the school of medicine of the University of Kansas, was the one who ranked at the head of the class. Every applicant from the University was passed and will receive a license to practice. According to the members of the board, this class was the strongest that has appeared before it. The plans for the reorganization of the school of medicine of the University of Kansas are progressing steadily. Medical education is expensive, and the budget that will be presented to the next legislature carries a considerable amount for this work. But those who are in a position to judge of the situation, feel that a great opportunity is open to the University to build up the great medical school of the Southwest. With the constant raising of standards, the small and poorly equipped medical schools throughout the country are obliged to close their doors. The opportunities for the well equipped schools, and their responsibilities, become correspondingly greater.
