"THE DONOVAN AFFAIR" Is everythinf but your ordinary mystery

largest of its kind in the world. Post
and Kellogg health foods originated
with Dr. Kellogg whose theories of
the treatment of disease are gaining
increased recognition in the medical
world. Besides carrying on the
work of the sanitarium Dr. Kellogg
and his wife have put their desire
to aid humanitty into active prac
tice by legally adopting twenty-two
children and educating; eighteen
others. (
Eighty-seven speakers were on the
program, nine of whom were women.
Representatives of medical societies
all over the world and heads of va
rious university departments made
up the delegates, numbering over
two hundred. Speakers from Eng
land, Russia, Denmark, France, and
Mexico gave an international scope
to the meeting. H. G. Wells of
England who was to have been pres
ent was forced to send regrets by
cablegram at the last minute.
Speak, at Program
Miss Lee represented the depart
ment of Physical Education and Ath
letics for women and spoke on the
topic, "How Athletics for Women
Are Being Organized Nationally for
Health Protection and Improvement."
Dr. Maud Slye of the University
of Chicago, an international author
ity on the relation of heredity to
cancer, told of her nineteen years
of research in this field. Dr. Alex
is Carrel of the Rockefeller Institute
for Medical Research, included in his
speech among tales of his research
the story of his work in keeping a
chicken heart alive for sixteen years.
Dr. William Hickson, director of
the psycopathic laboratory, and
Judge Harry Olson, both of the Mun
icipal Court of Chicago and famous
in the Leopold-Loeb trial, spoke of
the need of new criminal laws to aid
in race betterment.
A practical work, reported by Mr.
John A. Kingsbury, is being done by
the Millbank Memorial Fund. A
portion of lower New York City, the
city of Syracuse, N. Y., and a county
in New York have been placed on a
positive health basis. It is hoped
that in this way it will be possible to
state to every type of community the
exact cost for such an undertaking.
Some startling figures have been re
vealed in the course of this work. It
has been found that an average city
the size of Syracuse, although spend
ing $14 per capita for education and
$7 for protection, police, etc., has
been spending only $.91 on health.
Report, on New Diet
Dr. Hindhede, commissioner of
health for Denmark, astounded the
convention with the report that there
has been worked out in his country a
potato diet on which people can act
ually live at the cost of only six cents
a day.
During the convention the town
of Battle Creek carried on a pleasing
variation of the habitual Better Baby
contest by holding a Fitter Families
contest. All the members of each
of the twenty-five competing famil
ies were examined by the visiting ex
perts and the results tabulated, the
winner being announced at the clos
ing session.
Henry Ford I Pre.ent
On Tuesday evening an Old-American
party was given at which pre-
1 Civil war dances were featured.
Henry Ford promoted this part of
the entertainment. The music for
dancing was furnished by an orches
tra which Mr. Ford brought with
him to the sanitarium. He also
brought a dancing master to instruct
those whose ideas of the old Amer
ican dances were vague. Mr. and
Mrs. Ford joined in the dancing as
did all the delegates.
The American Playground and Re
creation Association left this bit of
advice with t$ convention on how
to grow old gracefully: "Keep lim
ber, loving, and a little bit loony."

Book Collection on Display at Library
Discloses Early Chinese Art reatures
By Leon Larimer
Many interesting phases of early
Chinese art are contained in the col
lection of books on the subject which
is now on display in the library build
ing. These books, all of which are
owned by the library, have been ac
quired over a period of years and
many of them are very valuable.
One of the most Interesting books
is The Precepts of Iaotze, sent as a
gift to the library in 1923 by Vice
Admiral Tsai Ting-kan of the Chin
ese navy, and associate director of
the Revenue Council of China. This
volume is exhibited as an example
of Chinese printing and binding.
A beautiful plate of a porcelain
of the Ming dynasty is one of the
many contained in what is perhaps
the most valuable book on ceramics

man of the committee on decora
tions and entertainment. She was

Suckey. Minnie Fisher, '29, was in
charge of the refreshment commit
tee. She was assisted by Mary

Games, various skits and Jancir.g
formed the major part of the eve
nings entertainment. Refreshments,
consisting of ice cream and wafers,
were served.
Proposal Made to Hold
Classes Six Days of
Week at Oklahoma U.
Students of Nebraska who bemoan
and lament about the few Saturday
classes at Nebraska should read this
article and sympathize with Univer
sity of Oklahoma students.
It has been proposed that classes
at the University of Oklahoma be run
six days a week. The' schedule is be
ing marked out by university offi
cials and is expected to alter crowded
conditions on the cp.mpus. Oklahoma
students are putting up the grand
"howl" against this new plan, but
they probably will have to accept it
as inevitable.
opponents, Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Mildner, of Sigma Chi, ran up thej
highest total individual score for the
three games with 5i8 points, with
Jorgenson, of Delta Uplison, sec
ond with a total of 537 points. Jor
gensen, however, bowled the highest
individual score for one game with
a total of 241 points. Gailager, of
Xi Psi Phi number two, was second
with 205 points.
D. U. Winner
Delta Upsilon won all three games
from Theta Xi by the following
scores: 658 to 647; 712 to 646, and
782 to 666.
Ecta Theta Pi defeated Phi Kappa
Psi in all three games: 600 to 549;
695 to 546; and 668 to 630.
Alpha Chi Sigma lost the three
games to Lambda Chi Alpha by the
scores: 599 to 629; 583 to 676; and
564 to 671.
Kappa Sigma won their three
games with Pi Kappa Alpha: 666 to
707; 757 to 711; and 751 to 641.
Xi Psi Phi Win Close Match
In the closest games of the eve
ning, Xi Psi Phi number two won two
of their three games with Sigma Chi
by following scores: 651 to 746; 757
to 744; and 793 to 778.
Xi Psi Phi number one lost two of
their three games to Sigma Phi Ep
silon: 659 to 766; 779 to 592; and
764 to 767.
Thursday evening, the opening
matches of the tournament, twelve
of the sixteen teams entered, bowled.
The remaining four teams have
made arrangements to bowl later
during the week.
The next regular matches of the
tournament will be played Thursday
evening, January 19. The tourna
ment is being so conducted that each
team will have met every other, by
the close of the tournament. Final
standing will be determined on the
basis of percentage of games won.
Ivory Carving Displayed
Another tome displays a Chinese
carved ivory vase, undated. Ivory
carving is interesting more because
of the marvelous mechanical dexter
ity which it embodies rather than
from an artistic point of view.
A ceremonial ax, an excellent ex
ample of jade of the Han dynasty,
dating from 206 B. C. to 220 A.' D.,
is portrayed in one volume. The
early Chinese jades are noted for
their extreme plainness. Jade w a
stone commonly of a pale to dark
green color, although sometimes
whitish, tough and compact, and cap
able of a fine polish. It has been
used for ornamental purposes and
for implements among many early
peoples, and to the present is highly
prized, especially in. China. True
jade is a rock composed of inter
laced fibres of jadeite. This kind
is the more highly prized and in
cludes the "feitsui" of the Chinese.
A plate of ancient Chinese bronzes
thought to be the earliest records of
Chinese art, are shown, as weH as
another relic of the Ming period, a
painting by an unknown artist, "The
Earthly Paradise." A beautiful ex
ample of the porcelain work made in
the celebrated K'ang Hsi period at
the famous Cling-te Chen potteries
is among other examples of Chinese
art found in the display.
Student Finds Rare
Fossil While Home
Christmas Vacation
Norman, Okla., Jan. 11. (Spe
cial) The second discovery, during
the Christmas holidays, of an inver
tebrate fossil in the Jackfork sand
stone in John's valley, near Dunbar,
Okla., by Charles W. Miller, Sapulpa
graduate student at the University
of Oklahoma, has led local scientists
to believe there are many such fos
sils in the formation.
Miller made his first discovery of
the fossil last summer while working
in the valley on his master's thesis,
and, at that time, the specimen was
one of the ten fossils of its kind
known to be in existence. The first
discovery was submitted to David
White, eminent paleontologist, at
Washington, D. C, for identification.
Collection of Egyptian
Bric-a-Bac Is for Sale
To Aid Missionary Work
Livingston Gordon, a graduate of
the university in 1917 and now con
nected with the United Presbyterian,
church mission at Alexandria, Egypt,
has placed a collection of Egyptian
bric-a-brac in the care of Miss Louise
E. Mundy, assistant professor of
drawing and painting. The collec
tion is being sold as a means of pro
curing finances for the mission at
Alexandria.
Elfred Beck, '20, chief geologist
for the Producers and Refiners Oil
corporation of Paroo, Wyo., and E.
E. Lindeblad, '17, geologist for the
Empire companies of Bartlesville,
Okla., were visitors at the depart
ment of geology last week.
