Wh,en Willa Cather works, she

Miss Furman was one of the news

sociations with the president as be

pointed out to her listeners that her
opportunity of interviewing the pres

Exhibits Varied
The exhibition provides a great
variety of styles, subjects, and
methods pf painting. The paintings
range from the older detailed style
to some of the most modern treat
ment. Subjects range from children
to grandparents, from seascapes to
snow-capped mountain peaks, and
from scenes of picnics to crowded
city streets.
"The Cattle Buyer", by W. Her

comment as did the portrait, Vera
Mirova, by Gregory Orloff. The dis

attention.
Many students have availed them

collections. Many groups of visitors
were passing through the galleries

PROMISING FIELD
" OPBN TO CHEMISTS
Perfume-Making Offers Possibilities
To American Scientists in
Several Branches
American chemists, according to
recent reports, ar not taking advan
tage of the promising field of per
fume making. Skilled graduates of
prominent French universities, who
have interested themselves in chem-
istry, have found a lucrative field
awaiting them, since the increasing
popularity of perfume blending has
caused a stir in the industry.
Thirty years ago, the blending did
not require trained chemists, but to
day the industry depends upon its
skilled scientists to take the newly
discovered synthetic products and
blend them into highly fashionable
and popular perfumes.
With most dressmakers and fur
riers in Paris employing their own
perfume blender, the field of the
chemist is wide, and the competition
for securing the "best seller," which
eventually reaches the American
market, is keen.
Few American chemists have en
tered themselves into the industry
as yet, according to M. LeLong,
prominent Paris dressmaker, but its
growing importance in the worlds in
dustry is certain to recommend it to
and young chemist who is seeeking a
novel way of commercializing his
abilities.

KANSAS HISTORY IS YARIED
Moore Declares State Has Passed
Through Many Changes
Lawrence, Kansas, Feb. 16. Kan
sas has been the site of mountains
and has had every climate, from that
of the tropics to that of the arctic.
And before it became the fertile
plain that it now is, it was at one
time a desert and at another had
abundant moisture. And again,
parts of it were covered with a solid
sheet of ice.
These and other facts of the geo
logical history of Kansas were re
lated here this afternoon by Dr. R.
C. Moore, state geologist, speaking
at the Sixtth Three-day School for
Kansas Water Works officials, now
in session at the University of Kan
sas.
The school is held in conjuction
with the Third Annual Meeting of
the Kansas Water Works Associa
tion.

Conger will race over a 1,000 yard
course.
Conger holds the national col'
