We are not ready to state whether or not they are would-be's, but the fact remains that we have in our midst the Thalians, which is made up of the A1, creme de creme dancers that daily lift their classic pedals up Oread's slope. These Algernons and Percys have long felt a mutual admiration for the grace that each possesses on the dance floor, and this affection broke out last week in the form of another society. But what can we expect in a University life such as ours? In the great struggle for social existence the Thalians have emerged triumphant and stand, each with a little halo on his head and a slipper bag in his hand, high, high up above the rest, living and shining examples of the best in life. Truly it must be said that the Thalians represent the survival of the fittest. No matter whether or not we believe in suffrage for women, the visit of Sylvia Pankhurst to this city is attended with much interest. She represents a militant type of woman who is struggling for a cause and the hardships and the sacrifices that she has been called on to endure should assure her an interested if not sympathetic audiences when she speaks here. And we're going to have a hospital anyway. The $50,000 which An Honest Confession. The library of the University of Kansas is named "Spooner Library."

This was an unusual expression on the part of the house and it will be appreciated by the people of the state who have followed the course of Chancellor Strong since he became the head of the University. From the start Chancellor Strong avoided the old method of asking for a whole lot of things that were not needed in order to swell the budget, so that when scaled down it would be large enough to cover the needs of the school, and in its stead he made clean cut demands for just what was needed, no more and no less. It was a new thing with the legislature and it proved so satisfactory that it has since been followed by other state institutions. Knowing the needs of the growing institution Dr. Strong has not hesitated to ask for large appropriations, but he has convinced the people of the state that every dollar appropriated, has been and will be wisely and economically expended.—Lawrence Daily Journal World.
