Kansas youth was on its way back
to school today. From every county
in the state, at every depot, and over
every railroad line, it was mobilizing
citadels.
From farm shop, store, office, and
mothers kitchen hundreds of Kansas
boys and girls were leaving for school.
Many of them were leaving for the
first time; others had gone to and re-
turned from school so often that it
had come to be their fall habit.
The four big schools, Washburn, the
University al Lawrence, the College at
Manhattan, and the Normal at En-
poria, were drawing the larger share.
Fully seven thousand students were
expected to attend these three schools.
Hundre eds of others were going to en-
roll in the score of smaller Kansas
colleges scattered thruout the eastern
half of the state.
Today young men and young women
travelled from one end of their train
to the other looking for a college
chum. Some wanted to see the girl
they had told goodbye in the spring
when school closed. Others were look
ing for roommates. Most of them
merely wanted to see if there is any
one on here l know
