Number Of Books Near 15,500
Miss Margaret Heckethord, head librarian, has announced that the stock of books In the library Is only 96 short of 15,500. She is certain to acquire 50 within the next few days, leaving only 46 lacking from the number.
The McPherson college library, is one of the best and largest in the state, and its administration made this week Library Week on the campus.
Mohler Talks Of “Keeping Level"
Last Sunday night Professor R. E. Mohler of the college gave a brief talk to the student BYPD group on the general subject of 'Keeping Level'.
Prof. Mohler's subject stressed the high rate of speed with which we are moving today and the inconsistency of the fact that it is with 'one foot in an airplane and the other in an ox cart'. In the matter of conveniences, of luxuries, of scientific progress we are trawling to the airplane age; we are far ahead of anything money could possibly buy a few years ago. And yet in our choice of movies, of books and even of friends we are on the ox-cart level.
What we expect of our leisure time is definitely inferior to what we expect in utilities and luxuries, con eluded Mr. Mohler.
Class Visits Industries
The general shop classes went to Wichita yesterday to visit various Industries.
Invite Honor Students
All McPherson College students
who are members of the National Honor Society are Invited to attend the annual banquet of the McPherson chapter which will be held held Tuesday night at the Senior high school building. For information concerning said banquet ace Autumn Fields.
Prevent Another Disaster
The local gas company placed an air tight easing around the gas main in front of the physical education building in order to prevent another disaster as occurred when the New London school house exploded a year or two ago, to kill hundreds of children.
The casing prevents the seepage of gas under the foundation of the gym. Should there at some future time be a break in the original main. The casing would carry escaping gas to an outlet away from the buildings.
Students Plan to Secure Non-Aryan To Come Here
As an active front against race hatred and as a positive action for world peace, the major student organizations of Macm-pus are hoping to make it possible to secure a refugee non-Aryan student from Germany to come to live in the dormitory next year and attend the college.
Already assured of coopera-tion from the college administration, the Student Council, the International Relations Club and the S. C. M., in cooperation with other student groups, will next Wednesday begin an extensive financial drive among the students.
It will take about $4010 to assure the success of the plan. The college administration has promised to do its share, and part of the money will come from service clubs and from women's clubs off the campus. The Cosmos club already has given $25 to the fund, and since some money has so soon came in from the students, already one-eighth of the necessary fund are available, without counting the promises of the college officials.
This shows that the plan is practical and can be carried out success-fully, assuring students the privilege of having as their constant companion a student who is aware of the European situation and Hitler's purge.

An outstanding performance was given by Miss Margaret Walmer, soprano the organ beautifully in his organ soloist. Mr. Ralph Harrel played solo.
Dr. Hagbard Brase is nationally recognized for his distinction in chor-al direction. The choir distinguishes itself not only by the balance of voices and solidity of background and range of expression, but also by the impressive numbers consisting

the repertoire of A cappella music.

The solicitation will begin Wednesday and, aided by "I have contributed'' signs, will end Friday noon. Three days, April 26, 27, 28, will constitute the duration of the drive.
Since most Macmpusans work their war through college, student leaders here think it only fair that any student who is aided here should be willing to work also.

Returns Here
Evelyn Amos returned to college last Friday afternoon from her home In ludapaitdanre. She had been ill ever since the Easter holidays.
Boitnott Gets Nod For Dean Post
Mohler Boosted To Position Under Prexy
Dr. John W. Boitnott will become dean of McPherson college at the start of the next school year. Dr. V. F. Schwalm announced yesterday. He will succeed Dr. J. D. Bright who recently announced his resignation to become head of the department of history at Washburn college Topeka.
Dr. Boitnott has been head of the department of education of the col-lege since 1935. He was the first choice of the large majority of the faculty for this elevation to position and received the unanimous vote of the board of trustees.
The new dean has had experience in high school administration as well as a college instructor. He revived his A. B. degree from Bridgewater college in 1925, his A. M. from the University of Virginia and his Ph. D. in 1926. His ability as an organiser and as a scho-

Are you on a goldfish diet? Collegians in many schools throughout the country find live goldfish appetizing and start contests in eating them. Tony Voshell caught a perch in a pond, but he controlled his consuming impulses.
We suggest "Three Little Fishes." "My Favorite dish— fish," and "I want Some Seafood, Mama" as a theme song for the goldfish guzzlers.
These warped weaklings of the campus may enjoy a gold-fish derby with only one gulp and no chewing allowed, but out digestive tract revolts even at the thought of such a feat. Loth-rop Withington, Jr., and his screwy coherts are fine prey for tapeworms.
Student Councils, the State Conservation Commission and the S. F. P. C. A. C. (Society for prevention of cruelty to aqua-tic creatures) should intervene and thoroughly investigate the matter.
One winner stated "You lay the goldfish well back on your tongue let it wiggle forward until it hits the top of the throat, then give one big gulp." A slick, juicy snake would hasten the wriggling process, we believe, with the same scaly effect.
Just imagine what a college campus would be like if the goldfish guzzling craze became as prevalent as were the racoon coats, slickers, flivvers, and flappers of the '20s!
Athletic teams would be nicknamed "Goldfish", "M" Club members would earn letters by swallowing the number of goldfish representing the quarters in which they participated, swimming for goldfish would be a popular sport, student officers would be elected for their ability to guzzle, meals at the dining hall would contain an all-goldfish menu, persons on the dean's list would eat them without salt to qualify, debaters would discuss the relative merits of fat or slender goldfish, musicians would compose new songs with a goldfish theme, and indigestion would confine many students to their rooms, where they would feed the goldfish.
The whole thing sounds fishy.—R. C.

and gathers relics for yonder Orien-tal Plains for the Macampus miss.
Edith Nickey has decided that being sick has its advantages. Mother Emmert brought her some pure-yes, full strenght cream.
Just an observation- everybody is applying for schools.
Kirk Naylor, Eugene Eisenbise, Mickey Miller, and Edith Nickey went hunting the other day. They took two shells, and brought back two rabbits—but there's a catch— Kirk shot at a rabbit while it was sitting down.
Some few may have been of the
opinion that the library was install-ing curtains in its windows. But the explanation is that Sam Elrod simply lacked a better place to hang his rain coat.
On the Geology trip it was discov-ered that Prof. Hohler had a knack for getting students through toll gates without having to pay any money.
Now Kitty Mohler and Bill Rock have something in common. Each broke a window in the gym last Monday.
Evelyn Amos is discouraged. She says that she's awfully dumb in romantic movement because she has had no background for it like Billy Thompson.
Poor Doc Flory is always going into raptures about something. This time he thinks Joan Crawford is orchidaceous—if you don’t know what orchidacious means, look it up, because as Miss Shockley says "it will be good for you".
Some snilly snimps snuck out of college a week ago Thursday in a snappy, snazzy, snortin', snuper snix and had themselves one snuper-snil-Hous snow storm in which to visit the chruches of Western Kansas, eastern Colorado, and the mountains of Colorado Springs.

This column is the ears of the Spectaror. It hears whispers and shouts and welcomes them as long as it knows their source. It is a
terrible gossips and repeats almost everything it hears.
Jake and Jake and Jake is legion, timelss—the proletariat, Jake lives ia any country in the world. He is just ordinary, an average, mediocre guy. He has a wart on the side of his jaw, freckles over his nose. A shock of unruly hair drops over his nondescript features. Jake works hard all day to support his brood of four. And his wife.
His about is a whisper in the unwilling ears of presidents, representatives and dictators. The shout of him, who is legion, sometimes remakes the map of the world.
He does not like war because he does not want his sons to get shot to pieces, and his bank account to be riddled by postwar depression.
His shout-whisper has prevented world-wide conflict.
He says he doesn't want war; and presidents and representatives and dictators hesitate to listen.
But Jake doesn’t yell loud enough. He doesn't yell at the same time, he doesn’t use all his voices. He has forgotten the titanic struggles under the tri-color to free himself from vampire monarchies sucking his life-blood? or the conflict for freedom in 1776? the fight for Independence in Greece?
Jake is alseep. He needs to wake up. A punch in the

Jake is all the people, the government, the mob, the system—everything! He doesn't know it yet. But when he wakes up he will run things to suit himself.
Easter vacation was a sort of back-to-nature excursion Jesse Messe-mer, Olive Colyn, Melba Berger, Dick Berger, Leslie Rogers, Norman Krueger, Kathryn Dobbins, Mary Ellen Slead, Hildred Klineman, and Edith Spengler. They rode in an open truck to Iowa.
I must be losing my nose for news
or perhaps I just don't get around as much as per usual. Anyway, two
weeks have gone by and I have very little to write about, and that which I do have is either so old that it's stagnant or it is to personal to put in black and white.
Of course is is always news when three young ladies, namely, Lois Kennedy, Mamie Wolf, and Lenora Kanel, come in suffciently late to get campused. They did avoid a lot of undesirable scandal and con-ferences with members of the ad-ministration, however, by entering via the front door. But Vance Sanger, one of those involved, feels that he is "socially disgraced".
The leap year week end could fur-niah material for an entire news-paper, I suppose. Gladys Shank ask-ed Phil Myers for a date, and upon being turned down, inquired "How am I supposed to feel at being refused?” Phil grinned and answered "Let down." But Gladys ups and sez, "Well, I don't." And what could Phil say?
Jack Oliver was In Topeka Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Joe E. Kraus visited their son, Vernon, over the weekend.
Arlene Barley, Virginia Harris, Maurine Anderson, Lenore Shirk, Gladys Shank, Lillian Pauls and Wil-bur Stern, Stephen Stover, Raymond Coppedge, Bill Thompson, Addison Saathoff, Phil Myers, Vance Sanger, and Orville Beehler were guests at a party given by Rosalie and Autumn Fields at their home Friday night. Miss Della Lehman went to Otis Thursday night and judged plays.
Avis Heckman and Mildred Stutz-man, former McPherson students who now teach in Lyons, were in Mc-Pherson over the weekend.
Mr. and Mrs. Kinzie visited Mar-jorie Kinzie Sunday afternoon.
"Dutch" Goering had a prominent part in a play given before the Elyria P. T. A. Friday night. From the college Rilla Hubbard, Edith Hughey, Katheryn Enns, Estelle Bacon, "Doc" Van Blaricum, Durward Karlson, and Eddie Diehl went to see it.
Andy Collett was in Wichita Sun-
day.
"Dear Diary", Says Chemist
April 14, 1939. This is an important day, dear diary, for there is so much to tell. Let’s see, where shall I start—at the beginning. Up unusually early in order to grab a bite to eat, and then the start. We hear it was agreed that too many cars passed Mr. Hershey's grey limosine on the way down. Enjoyed watching the antics of the wind all day. Decided I'd chew no more paper wads after going through that plant. Heard that the Fields car lived true to form In losing the key.
Harold and Avis stuck together. And that microscope at the Carey salt lab,—it cost—well, more than any college student has ever seen. Those coca-colas really hit the spot; some were in such a hurry, they almost missed them. We cut across town instead of following the police escort—speed limit? I don’t know. And did Sally’s legs ache after climbing to the top of tha mill!
Had to wait a year at noon for the other fellow's fried chicken. Smelled like salt, felt like salt and tasted like salt. Queer isn't it, it was salt. (All over the car too.) No, not on the chicken, but elsewhere No bread, no candy, no ice cream, what a life. Mercy, it is getting hotter! Off comes the coat, off comes the vest, off comes the —whoa. It's still hot.

Marjorie Kinzie had a brithday this week, and did you see that make-up kit that Jim Lambert gave her! Very nifty! Marj is of age now, as indicated on the cake that she shared with several friends Monday night. It was angel food cake, too, with purty candles on it. Don't you with you had a piece to eat with that fried hominy we had for dinner the other day?
To the Editor: there is coming from stu- dents in our strict denominational colleges the ir, for more democracy in student govern-
mental and social affiars. Why not run a student government by students and with
students interest primarily in mind? Three chosen for the new constitoutional! Why couldn't our ding hall be more democratic? Why do we have to get foods meal after meal that we do not like? What would in having committees from the
ranks of the diners to planning the meals? Certainly this would lighten the load of our college dietrician.
Another point: How long will the agitation
for school sponsored dances remain bridled?
The president of one of our leading denomin-ational collges of the state held this this agitation on his campus until a recent chapel.
excersize. At this chapel the denominational
institute goers were given the right of fran-chise to express their opinion. The score was 160 yes nad 93 no and two thirds of those absent from chapel this particular day on the yes side. What is the next move for this college president? (I ask you).
Would the stufdents of McPherson college vote in like manner? Would we disappoint our constituency so? Yes we would! But wait —we haven't had a chance democratize this issue. How long will we continue to let out feelings on this issue remain suppressed? Our faculty, board of trustee, and our con-
stituency should realize that his issue is on the way.
If we a students of McPherson College ex-pect to enjoy democratic rule in our politcal and social life on our campus then we must unbridle our potentialities in the form of just and resonalbe ideas of expressible wishes and then depends on the officals of our college to take harmonizing action.

Shockley Entertains
Miss Ida Shockley, dean of women, entertained the girls of Mc-Pherson College with a tea in the Student Union Room last Sunday from three to four-thirty. The girls came and went as they pleased, enjoying for a brief time Miss Shock-ley’s hospitality.
The tea table was beautifully laid with a lace cloth with a most at-tractive centerpiece of sweet peas backed by several tall tapers. Dainty sandwiches and cookies were an ac-rompaaltaent to the tea.
In entertaining the girls, Miss Shockley was aided by members of the womens’ council and Mrs. J. L. Bowman, who presided at the tea table.
Majors Are Entertained
All Industrial education majors and their lady friends will be enter-tained by Prof. and Mrs. S. M. Dell at their home Friday evening. Dean of Men, Dell is also head of the de-partment of industrial education.

The visit to the Indian Burial Pit was especially enjoyed. A great number of bones, remains of Indians have been exposed, and it is believed that altogether about one hundred and fifty will be found. Ten miles north of Salina the class stopped to search for iron concretions, and Leonard Vaughan found—a cactus, and Prof. Mohler found a most interesting form of volcanic glass.
After the passengers in Eugene Eisenbise's car had stocked up with apples and cookies, the group set out for Rock City, southeast of Minneapolis. All the inhabitants of this town ore very obese and stone-deaf. After clamboring up and down these rock formations, all enjoyed dinner of fried steak sandwiches—even if the meat was a little rare in spots—and bananas.
At Brookville the class visited a home which had a wonderful collection of rocks.
The next stop was at Arcola Ranch where Roy Robertson found and distributed literature on Hereford rattle. The geological interest, however, was the Arcola canyon which was beautiful.
"I'll let you see Indian Cave cheap; all of you, can go for two and a half dollars." A hole in a rock in the pasture was all there was. If she had not relented and let the group go free, they would have asked for a refund. In response to the lady's sudden generosity. Ernest Van-deran left his Chevrolet in her yard until he could return with a new drive shaft.
Evidently "Gracia" Allen doesn't want an million and a half bacteria around when he does his lovin'; at least he didn't want to expose a certain girl.
At Mushroom Rocks a number of boys demonstrated their athletic inability to climb to the top of one of these unusual formations. At least Vaughan had enough cacti, for he complained on Monday that he sill had some in his pants-
Late in the afternoon those potential geologists with sunburned noses, wind-blown hair, and dirty feet returned to Macampus.

Geology Class Visits Places Of Interest
By Area
Preachers end their "wivese", nearly married, and a few hybrid individual a comprised the personnel of those going on the geology trip last Friday.
The first slop was at a volcanic ash deposit about six miles north of McPherson, where a few of the students with Scotch blood in their veins filled some jars with the ash to use as cleaning powder.
From there the group drove up on Coronado Heights when, they observed the rock stratifications and the work of erosion. Frances Campbell with a feather in her hat, welcomed the rest of the party with Indian war whoops and a dance on
