Farmers Feed Starving Wild Fowl

Farmers and sportsmen in the nor
thern part of the state have been
throwing out feed broadcast in an
effort to provide forage for song
birds and game fowl deprived of nat
ural food by recent sleet storms. The
farmers realize how keenly they need
the birds as a protection against in
sect pests and a means of identifying
and enriching country life. Sports
men, nearly always good fellows,
wish to preserve the game birds from
extinction.

Church Hanging Reeks Barbarism


Harvey Church is dead, having paid
full penalty for two brutal murders
in so far as society could inflict that
penalty. The last phases of the exist
ence of Church were repugnant and
disgusting in the extreme. To make
certain that his state of coma was not
shamming experts" burned his body
with lit cigar ends and cut deep into
his flesh with knives. The tests re-
vealed nothing and Church was car
ried to the gallows more dead than
alive and hung. The whole thing was
sickening and barbarOus although one
cannot help but feel that Church re
ceived his just deserts.
Perhaps some day we will get away
from evidences of social barbarism
such as recently manifested We may
be able to imprisOn men for lives in
stead Of allowing them to go free on
parole after the crime is forgotten
and the politician or the sentimental
list is able TO get in his deadly work.
Perhaps, also, we shall be able to re-
move the causes of vanity and greed
that impelled the foolish brutal boy
to kill two men so that he might pa
rade in fine feathers for day or so.
Until then-eXecutiOn does iudubita-
bly, settle the criminal.

Disbelief in God Cause of Crime Wave

Disbelief in God Cause of Crime Wave
Chief Justice Hickman Scanlou of
the Chicago criminal court gives two
reasons for the alarming increase in
crime and delinquency of all kinds.
First is the passing Of the old Amer
lean home" said the Judge, and
the second, the American public is
losing faith in God"
Recent statistics revealed that
during the questioning of men for the
draft two out Of every three boasted
they did not attend church. Such a
statement is appalling.
Il want to warn you doctors not to
place too much faith in the rapidly
growing propaganda that all prison
ers are insane. The present cry, in
the community, is that an insane
stream runs through all criminals
From my experience I would say the
exact reverse is true. AS a rule men
brought into my court for offenses
are unusually smart"
*#*#
The belief that getting away from
the influences for good as promui-
gated by religion has direct rela-
ton to increase in crime and immor-
ality has taken hold of the minds Of
many observing people, some Of
whom are not at all religious them
selves. Stripped of all forms and
hair-splitting creeds the belief that
our lives are watched over and, if we
will, are directed by a loving heav
emily father, cannot but be a satisfy
ing, steadying and ennobling in
f1uence in our lives. We may dispute
fundamental phases OF applied Chris
tianity but the human soul needs this
warming influence from cradle to the
grave.

BRADLEY SITS NEW RECORD
Kansas Track Star Establishes New
World Hurdling Mark.

When Everett Bradley, Kansas City
track sasr, stepped over the 50-yard low
hurdles in 5 IS seconds in the dual
meet with Missouri last week, he not
only tied the score held jointly by Simp-
Bon, Sylvester and Scholz Of Missouri,
but also established a new worlds mark
for that distance over four hurdles, ac.
cotding 10 the University Daily Kansan.
The three Tigers made the same time
as Bradley. says the Kansm, but only
two hurdles were used in the event in
the years they competed. The using of
four hurdles placed ten yards apart. in
stead Of two hurdles placed twenty yards
apart, is q recent innovation.
According to Ksrl Schaldemann.
Jayhawker track coach, the only record
approaching Bradley's is that Of Gala
eher Of the Kansas Ageies. who made
the same time over three hurdles but
was disqualified for jumping the gun.
The records will be searched to see
il any other athlete has equaled Brad
ley's time in the four-hurdlc event. II
none Is found. the matter will be taken
up with the proper authorities to have
The Jayhawker captains record certified
and recognition given.

50 Yards Slow Fire.

The pistol team Of the R. o. T. c.

the scores for last week in comparison
with the week previous. The scores for
the week ending March l8 are:

ridge. e.: Waihan, 65.5.
These scores were made. at twenty five
yards, slow fire, and fifty yards. rapid
fire. The average percentage is about
five points below that made the pre-.
vious week.
Wollman created a sensation in the
practice firing Tuesday evening when he
fired score Of 69 out Of . possible 20
points at fifty yards, slow fire. Ac.
cording to authorities, this is the highest
score ever made with a pistol firing at
fifty yards, slow fire.
Wollman was high point man on last
years pistol team and is one Of the
men who fired the match in which Mis-
souri's pistol team defeated that Of West
