LIGHT FINGERS IN THE LIBRARY
PROPERTY IN CLOAKROOMS IS INSECURE.
Thefts of Clothing and Books
This Winter Approximate
$200 in Value.
The library cloak-rooms have become a privileged place where every student who wishes to do so may help himself to an overcoat or hat, or other article of dress. This is the opinion of one of the librarians of Spooner library who says that not a day passes without complaints being made at the desk that something has been taken from the cloak-room. If a total estimate could be made of the value of the articles of dress taken from the library closets this winter the amount would probably reach $150 or $200.
One of the librarians who has charge of the library at night, discover a student, not long since, going systematically through the pockets of the overcoats hanging in the closet. A partial list of those who have lost property in Spooner library only recently, follows:
Ledrue Carter, overcoat; Walter Nesbitt, hat; Arthur Johnson, two hats; Louis LaCoss, overcoat, gloves and muffler; Allan Shaw, hat; Harold Ketchem, hat
The thieves do not confine their operations to clothing alone, but are stealing an unusually large amount of books from the shelves, either to take them from the library and read them at home, contrary to the rules, or in some cases to take them, never to bring them back. The following statement was made by a librarian in regard to the thieving that is going on all the time:
"I have never seen conditions worse than they have been since Christmas. Scarcely a day passes that I do not hear complaints about missing articles. The way things are going now the only method I can see to stop this petty thievery is to place guards at either end of the cloak-room.

Men Lighter Readers, Too.
A few days ago there was an observation in The Kansan that men were steadier and more earnest readers than women. In addition to this, it also seems that they read more "light" literature also. According to the little man who sells "The Saturday Evening Post" down near the Museum, the majority of his patrons are men, and the greater number of these are law students. The average number of papers sold is 175. Thursday was a record breaker in sales, for 225 papers were disposed of before the litte boy turned his wagon around and trudged slowly down the hill
Tumblers Are Working.
The "University tumblers" are planning a very extensive tour to be made some time this spring in the eastern and northern part of the state. They are going to begin regular practice again shortly because of their appearance before the Teachers' association, which is soon to be held here. They will also appear before the entire student body, probably in the stunt day program.
