KEEP SMILING
BY LAWRENCE EVART.

When you're feeling mighty blue,
And you don't give a cuss;
When it's harder 10 keep smiling
Than II is 10 make a fuss;
When you think the world is rotten,
And has treated you some rough;
When your pockets they are empty,
And the game of life looks tough,
Just buck up like a soldier
Dig up your grit and sand,
Say Hello, and keep smiling,
When you shake a friendly hand.
II you're up and things look perfect,
And the world seems great TO you,
When success has crowned your efforts
And your dreams seem coming true,
When your bank account is swelling,
And within-you're satisfied,
You're not digging up your car-fare,
As In your car you ride;
Just stop and keep on smiling,
IL Is better than a frown;
It's a Hello" and a hand-shake
When you meet a chap that's down
A smile win cost you nothing,
And a Hello" costs the same,
A hand-shake firm and steady
Helps a lot in life's great game.
II you're up, Its very easy;
If you're down, its mighty hard;
But In either case, keep smiling
II Will prove a winning card
And when the ends approaching,
When youll llnger but awhile,
Pass on 10 met your-Maker.
With a Hello" and a Smile"
Don't trust TO luck for lchances-com.

Two new courses are required for this
work. They are work in practice
teaching and practice housekeeping.
Students taking these courses will
spend six weeks doing practical house
keeping work in the practice house
During the six weeks spent in doing
the laboratory work, in the practice
house, the girls will not do any prac-
tice teaching This will enable them
to give double time to the hOusekeep-
ing work. Other girls may live in the
house at the time, but will not be
required to do any work other than
care for their own rooms. Insofar as
possible, girls who live in Manhattan
or who live in sorority houses will be
permitted to do the practice house
work during the first six weeks OF
the semester. Others viii do the prac-
tice house work during the second
and third weeks.

favor of lovely color. AS in the days

FRENCH CLAIMS.

France wants, first of all, Alsace-Lor-
raine Internationally, and the right to
discuss and ultimately to fix the French
frontiers In their relation to the Rhine,
which may require the creation of buff
fer states. One of these would be the
Palatinate and another Rhenish Prus-
STA. France desires also to annex the
basin of the Sarre river, which might
be called a remuneration.
France will insist that so far as the
left bank of the Rhine farther to the
north is concerned, the conference
should forbid military works Of any
kind-barracks, bridgeheads, forts and
fOrtresses- that zone. The feeling
is that the people inhabiting that zone
should be free to decide for them
selves whether they wish TO join
France, form an Independent state, or
return to Germany.
The French bill for reparation is not
complete. but it has been announced in
the chamber of deputies that it will
be about 66,OOOOOO,OOO francs ($13.-
2OO,OOO,OOO).
The French government does not
ask for a prOtectOrate in Syria in the
ordinary sense because it considers
that the population there is too adj
vanced to make n prOtectOrate neces-
sary, but France, on account of her
traditional interests in that country,
feels that she should be called upon to
exercise some sort of guardianship or
guidance until Syria should be fully
able to govern herself.

Interest Gathered From
Many Sources.
LAWYERS MAKE 5000 IN WAR
Out OF 1873 Kansas Attorneys Who
Entered the Army Service, f21
Became Officers.

In an address before the State Bar
Association at Topeka, Senator A. NJ.
Keene of Fort Scott told the lawyers
that 1913 Kansas attorneys were in
the army during the recent war and
121 became officers. He stated that
OF this number two were brigadier
generals, two colonies, two lieutenant
colonies, six majors, twelve captains,
Twenty-Five first lieutenants, fifty
two second lieutenants, eleven ser
geants, five corporaIs, fifteen privates
and the grade OF fity-seven was not
known to the speaker
Mr.. Keene gave an idea Of the ex-
tent to which the law schools Of the
nation have been depleted by the
war. He said:
''At the opening of the law schools
in 1918 the loss in attendance was
as per cent. Fourteen law schools
have suspended operations entirely
and have quietly given up the ghost"
Mr.. Keene spoke on the rapid "evO-
luton" and changes in the profession
from that Of comparatively q few
years ago when budding legal genii
gained their schooling in law offices,
while now practically all law students
attend law schools. He declared that
the "age of commercialism' of recent
years had spread that dire plague Of
codification" over the profession and
has destroyed its science" as it ex-
listed under the common law.
