Then faith is but a mockery,

A hideous and cruel dream
That fans the fires of hell
Trust is but a rotter's tool,
Truth is but sinking lie

Intellect is but as filth,
And souls are but as scum
Life is but a shambles
OF a Shiny race of ghouls!
The world is but putrid mass
Decaying to the core!

On Friday evening, April 1st the
County Chairman made a trip to
Nasconctcong Post, No. lat, and ex-
planned the matter of per capita taxes
and the apparent overlapping in 1920
and 1921. Post lat now understands
the matter and their tax will go for
ward at once. This means 81 more
Legion men in this county, as this
post is growing and has the promise
of numbering close to one hundred
before July 1st. We wish all the
Posts would report as good results.
Pennington has received ten new
members within one week and now
numbers 131 members. Keep up the
goo dwork boys and lets go down to
Asbury Park in September for the
State Convention and report Hunter

team and a good one. Let's hear
from some of the other Posts. Write
to Roy BELLS, Chairman Of Athletics
or John c. Hensler, Baseball and
Basketball Manager.
Many men, we find, have never re-
ceived the State Medal and the Vic

HAS NEW BUILDING
Mary Smith One of New Members
on X. u. Faculty

For the first time this year the
department Of journalism ut the Uni
versity Of Kansas will have IA build
ing all its own. One Of the central
ly situated buildings on the campus
will be occupied exclusively by the
department when school opens Sept
ember Il. No formal dedication
will be held as everybody is too
busy at this time Of year. But
there will be general rejoicing
among journalism faculty and stu
dents that the congested conditions
OF the last few years have been
somewhat relieved.
With the additional room for its
printing plant, editorial depart
ments, class rooms, library, business
offices, and practice laboratories, int
department approaches nearer its
purpose of measuring up to the
greatness of Kansas as II newspaper
state.
Prof w. A. Dill, who spent last
year In Chicago as assistant night
editor of the Associated Press, will
return to the department with the
opening Of school. Prof. +. w. Dill
lon and DIR. Helen o. Mahin remain
in the faculty. Miss Mary Smith OF
Abilene, a 1919 h. II. graduate, who
has been with New York adver-
Using agency, will begin her work
as an instructor. Guy ii. PennOck
continues as instructor in printing
and linotype operation and superin-
tendent of the journalism press.

ALICE IN JUN0LELAND
Pretty Spectacle viii Open Barnes
Circus Performances

"Aiice In Junglelands" an unusual
spectacle, will open each performance
of the Barnes Animal Circus, Sept.
%. The story calls for Alice TO awak-
en- from a dream In an arena filed
with blood thirsty lions. Not many
Of the stage favOrites would welcome
realism OF this nature. That Is why
there has been only one Alice"
When Al. G. Barnes who personally
supervised the casting and staging Of
this elaborate spectacle, gave the role
to Miss Martha FlOrine, one of his
fearless animal trainers, who also is
a clever actress-he acted wisely
she has never missed performance
and Miss Marie Baudet, her under
study, has given up hope of ever get
ting an opportunity to display her
nerve.
The spectacle Is decidedly new
feat. Unlike most circus pageants it
carries a real story, and the adven-
lures Of "Alice" out rival those of the
widely known heroine Of Lewis Car
rolls children's story, "Alice In Jun
gleland." So popular did Alice in
Jungleland," become during the
Southern California tour of the circus
that Mr.. Barnes received several
offers from film directors for the
screen rights to the spectacle.

WETTEsT AUGUST IN HISTORY
But That Was Not In An Parts Of
Kansas

With an average of $40 inches
Of rain, the east third Of the state
experienced some OF the wettest
August weather In the history OF the
state during the month just closed.
This was especially true along the

rainfall In the month-11.59 inches
occurred at Lawrence, while the
average Of the valley was about
seven inches. These facts are set
forth in the monthly state wide

from 124 stations whose daily OBJ
servations cover every county in the
state.
Peculiar extremes were chroni-
cled taking the state as a-whOle.
For while most Of the east third of
the state was bountifully supplied
with moisture, drought existed in
q large area of the central third of
the state. In this third the monthly
rainfall averaged but 200 inches
anu TIC WeSt thiiu -'lo ihCHtS. lie
dryest locality in the state was Elk
hart in the extreme southwest cor
ner. Only .65 of an inch of rain fell
there throughout the month. The
entire state was in need of soaking
rain when the month closed. Prac-
tically the entire rainfall came in
the first three weeks Of the month
The drought stricken middle sec
ton Of the state was visited with
extreme temperatures, the hottest
period Of the summer. Shortly after
the middle Of the month tempera-
lures of 100 and above were COM
mon for more than a week. The
highest reported was at Salina-111
on the twenty-seventh.

DELUCED WITH
PLEAS FOR MORE MONEY

The Republican economy program
is to have a severe test in Congress
during the coming weeks.
Every department of the Govern
ment has started demands on Con-
gress for deficiency or emergency
appropriations. and these demands
promise to increase as the weeks Of
the present session go by.
Back OF each demand is an argu-
ment hard to answer. Each is based
on the failure of the last Congress
to provide adequately for the needs
Of the departments and to take care
of the work placed on them by Con-
gress.
Some time next week the army ap-
preparation bill will be reported to
the House. 1t is understood that this
bill will not allow the size of the
army as asked by Secretary Weeks
and will allow much less money than
he has stated as necessary for the
army. These Cabinet officers are to
be heard from in connection with re-
fssal to grant their requests, and
the President may be forced to take
hand in order to bring about peace.
