WENS GIVES REPORT
F S. V. M. CONVENT

Secretary Echoes Appeal
For Workers in Foreign Countries
KERNEL TO BE SENT TO
ALL KY. HIGH SCHOOLS

In accordance with it's policy of extension, the University has decided to
send at least two copies of the Kernel to all accredited high schools of
the State. This is a step long contemplated by' President McVey, but
could not be attempted until estimates
of the cost and work required could
be obtained and now it is assured that
each accredited high school in the
State will receive each week at least
two copies lof the Kernel.
This will greatly help to bring about
a more cordial understanding, of the
ideals, aims and activities of the student body of the lUniversity of Kentucky, on the part of the high school
students of the State, as well as their
parents and friends at home.
The Kernel in the high schools
will not only link the University more
closely to them, but will furnish a
source of good reading matter for the
students and will no doubt arouse a
community of interest and a feeling
of fellowship throughout the State.
SENIORS, NOTE

I

There will be an important meeting
of the senior class Friday afternoon
in chapel. The meeting was called
by Mary Turner, vice president of the
class, for the purpose of discussing
the question of electing a now president, Ed. Dabney having completed
his work at the University, has accepted a position as lawyer with a
firm in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Other important business matters
will be discussed and it Is Imperative)
that every member. of tho class be at

Rehearsals for the parts In "The

Strollers for their annual production,
aro being held every night In the
Recreation Hall at Patterson Hall.
Interest and competition are Intense.
The play is thought by some critics
to be 'Clyde Fitch's masterpiece, 'and
affords parts for twelve men and ten
women.
The cast will be chosen from the
best talent in the organization, and
readings of the play are progressing
in such a way that final announcement
of the parts will be made this week.
The play will be presented at the
Lexington Opera House the last of
March and repeated in nearby towns
at later dates.

Secretary R. V. Owens gave a report in chapel Tuesday of the Student
Convention
Movement
Volunteer
which was held at Des Moines, Iowa,
4 and was atDecember
tended by eleven of the Universitr
students.
"There were 8,000 regular delegates
1,000 universities and
representing
colleges from the United States and
other
Canada and from forty-threnations. Leaders were brought from
all parts of tho world to tell us of the
needs and conditions of other countries that wo might help to satisfy
those needs," said Mr. Owens. So
you can realize what a great privilege
was ours.
"Mr. Haggeron, in a little book,
'You're tho Hope of the World,' recently published, said that young
America was the hope of the world.
It is true that England has her preachers, doctors, lawyers and statesmen,
but they are getting old and her
young ones lies sleeping on the battlefields of Europe. It is the present
student generation that will take
England's place. It is from the students of today that the leaders of
tomorrow will come.
"These nations are needing farm
ers, teachers, engineers, everything;
In fact, there is not a profession represented in this University or in any
other university whose exponents are
not needed. There is a wonderful op
portunity for service. Tho doors of
the world aro wido open," said Mr.
Owens In conclusion, "and every man
and woman has a chance to take that
which Is vital to those in need."

RESUMED

began Tuesday, with a total registration of 946 shown in the registrar's
office Wednesday at noon. This numnew and
ber Includes the
former students who have entered for
the ensuing term, but who were not
at the University of Kentucky last
term. The total registration Is slightly less than the number, 989, who
were in college at the close of the
last semester.
Several reasons have been given
for this decline in attendance, including the natural reaction following the
war; the high cost of living in Lexington ; and the lack of dormitories at

courses have been completed this semester by students who were out of
school for one term while serving in
the army.
Among the former students who
have returned this year are Eliza
and Katherlne Weakley. Miss
Piggott, who was graduated in the
class of '19, was the managing editor
of the Kernel two years ago and tho

LOAN COMMITTEE
GIVES GOOD REPORT
No Necessity For Students

To Leave
University For Financial
Reasons.

The University Loan Committee,
whose funds were almost exhausted,
has received $700 in the last week
and is raising more. This committee
which has helped many worthy men
and women to get through college,
finds itself in great need of money,
having exhausted the alumni fund of
$1,050 and the small University fund
of $150.

According to a recent survey made
by the University Loan Committee, of
which Professor W. E. Butt is chairman, 277 students are earning money

their expenses and an additional sev

With summer earnings taken into ac
count, 125 young men (nearly one out
of five), are going through tho University on their own resources, meeting all their expenses from their Individual earnings. A few young women
also support themselves while taking
the regular courses?
The committee wishes it understood
that when a student proves real need
for funds and is able to show a record
for scholarship and a reputation for
industry and assiduity in his studies
that is above criticism, he may be
certain of help. No loan is made to
a student who has been in residence
at the University for a shorter period
than one semester and a preference is
shown to juniors and seniors.
There Is also a Southern Railway

Program
j

URGED
The Eighth Annual Farm and Home
Convention held at the University of
Kentucky from January
inclu
sive, and attended by more than a
thousand persons, was considered the
most successful of local farm conventions yet held.
The convention program was for
mally opened by Dr. McVey, who ad
dressed the delegates on the subject
of "Better Agriculture."
He urged
the tilling of more land by the own
ers, better education for country pet-pi- e
and greater
among
farmers. He also told the audience
of farmers and their wives that the
great task before them today is to
eradicate the existing evils of the
tenant-owne- r
plan.
Mat S. Cohen, formerly State Com
missioner of Agriculture was another
speaker of the first morning.
He
spoke on "What of the Future," discussing horse and Jack stock breeding in Kentucky. He was most optimistic regarding the future of the
breeding industry in Kentucky.
One of the most important addresses
of the meeting was that given by Professor E. A. Trowbridge, of the University of Missouri, an expert in animal husbandry.
His subject dealt
with the value of draft horse blood
in mule production.
In the afternoon, W. C. Hanna, Commissioner of Agriculture, spoke on
what can bej done to make the stallion and jack more profitable to their
owners.
Style Show In Little Theater.
The feature of Tuesday's program
was a style show, which was given in
the Llttlo Theater, under the direction of the Department of Home Economics. Miss Cornell spoke on the
standardization of dress in America,
and the exhibit was most delightfully,
given In the form a tea, In which members of the classes in dressmaking,
tailoring and millinery appeared before the audience, dressed In wearing apparel which had been made in
these classes. Miss Cornell explained
the value of points illustrated by each
article, giving 'the cost of making
compared with the price which would
probably be asked in tho shops.
Dr. H. IC. Taylor, chief office of
Farm Management, Washington, D.
C, addressod tho general assembly In
chapel on that same day.
L. J. iHorlachor was another speaker on Wednesday's program. Ills subject was "Some Lessons of tho Past
Year in the Grading and Pooling of
Wool." J. R. Humphrey spoke on "A
Proposed Wool Pool."
