Tho oxnet pcrcent- ngo of th one who earn every tent of their living expenses Is 20, accord ing to tho registrar's office, and 1C per cent more inakn botween CO and 100 por cent of tholr way. These statistics, baaed on data given by ev ery studont In tho University, bear out tho preliminary figures Indicated by tho checking ovor of the first thousand. Of the mon, 38 per cent of the membership of all classes earn tholr own way entirely; 23 per cent more earn 25 per cent of their expenses, making 81 per cent tho total of those who earn morn than half of their ex penses. Only H per cent reported earning from one-fouhh to one-balf and 26 per cent contribute less than one-quarter of the sum required. Ons woman out of every nine en rolled In this university Is entirely self-supporting. The percentage of these la 11, Nlae per cent more cam from, half to all of their expenses, making a total of one In every five women la the Institution who earn more than one-half of the money re quired to put tbem through college. Twelve per cent more earn from one- lounn io one-nair or ineir way. Sixty-eight per cont of the women earn lots than 2S per cent of their expenses. Comparisons with formor years aro unavailable, alnce this Is the first year that data have been kept by the reglatrar'a office. How ever, It Is the Impression of faculty members that the percentage of self- support has been showing rapid growth. The best showing of all, naturally. Is made by the mature graduate stu dents. Among the men, 98 pur cnt of these are entirely self-supporting, and nono earns less than one-fourth of his expenses. Among the women graduate students, 47 per cent earn all their way. Next come the special students, of whom 60 per cent among tho men and 36 per cent nmong the women earn their own way. Of sonlor men, C3 per cent are self supporting; 38 per cent of tho junior men, 37 per cent of the sophomore mon and 27 per cent of tho first-year mon require no help from home. Nineteen per cent, or almost one flflh, of tho entlro number of women In tho senior class nro oarnlng tholr own way. This Is tho boat showing of any of the collego years In this re spect. In the first year 9 per cent, or ono In eleven, earn every bit of their expenses; In tho sophomoro year Ihero Is a falling oft, owing It Is supposed to the fact that some of thoao who have tho ambition to work their way find that they lack tho physical strength to do so and either leave college or accent some heln from homo. Tho Junior year sees an advanco to 11 per cent. Of the freshman women 19 por cent, or ap proximately ono In flvo, earn moro than half of their expenses, and 31 per cent or tho seplors, or almost nno-thlrd of tho cntlro number. X4MfrJMM: T T i ? DO YOU WANT A MAN FOR PRESIDENT- Who has always stood four square against graft and greed in every form? Who stood alone against the most influential machine ever organized and saved America from a disastrous entanglement in "the" League of Nations? Who is publicly on record for ANY NATIONAL LEAGUE, BASED ON EQUITY AND RIGHT, THAT WILL DECREASE WORLD ARMAMENT AND PROMOTE WORLD PEACE but unequivocally against a league that would waste American lives and money in vain attempt to staunch incessant European brawls in which America can take no just part? Who would be a bulwark you know his California record between the people of the Pacific Coast and Japanese invasion by "peaceful penetration" of the fruitful lands of the western coast? Who advoates and has practiced throughout his political career a SQUARE DEAL for ALL CLASSES and conditions MEN and WOMEN, RICH and POOR, CITIZEN and CORPOR ATION alike? Whose platform filed with the secretary of state at Salem contains this sentnee WEIGH THIS WELL AND REMEMBER THAT HIRAM JOHNSON NEVER MADE A PLEDGE HE DIDN'T KEEP "I believe that this government belongs to ALL the people, not a favored few; that the farmer and the toiler have the same rights and the same privileges as the banker and the capitalist; that ALL classes are SUBJECT, and NONE are SUPERIOR to the law."

"When ono takes Into considera tion that Japan In taking Tslngtao with tho help of llrltlsh troops, was only doing hor part as an ally, her present nttltudo Is hard to under stand. "8ho Is taking dollbcrato stops to control tho wholo of tho land sur rounding tho hnrbor, docks, wharves and railroad terminals, and ovory obstacle Is put In tho way of other nationals of acquiring any property in what undoubtedly Is tho business contor. This policy can only bo con struod In ono way, viz, that Japan Is not going to allow any other nation to havo an opportunity of trading on fair and equal tonus with her own nationals.

How ho gets advertising results In ex port' trado was graphically pictured here last night by J. O. Culbertson. president of the Wichita Motors Co., beforo a group session of tho Nation al Foreign Trado Convention in ses sion hore. He said: "Wo have found that educational advertising to bo effective cannot bo gonoral. For oxamplo, tho denlxens of tho ilesorts of Asia or Africa aro not Interested In motor equipment adapted for transporting logs or lumber. Tho wool growers on tho Patagonlan plains caro nothing about tho advantages of steel dump bodies for transporting sand and gravol, and tho South African zulus nro not at all concerned about motor street sprinklers and flushers. "Wo havo used thrco general mothod of getting results, and those threo aro closely related; first, ad vortlslng In export trado publican tlons; second, advertising through local trado publications and dally and weekly nowspapors, published in tho forolgn country whoro tho pro. duct Is to bo sold; third, advertising by direct appeal through personal letters, catalogues and our own nous organ. 'Advertising through forolgn trado publications and newspapers has boon effoctlve. This class of copy must bo specific and accurate in its relation to local conditions and an Intimate knowledgo of the country Is necessary. In all periodical ad vertising, we pay close attention to the proportion or copy. Wo pay par ticular attention to the compilation of export catalogues, circulars and folders. Rack of this pnbllclty. Is a thor oughly organised export department, and at the head of this department U an officer ot our company thor oughly trained In export merchandis ing. Advertising Is a tool, and the results depend, In a large meaaars, ob the skill ot the user." AT THE THEATERS Tho famous cowboy star, Tom Mix, will mako his debut In this city as an author and producer at the Liberty Theatre, whero bo will pre sent his latest and greatest Western thriller, "The Daredevil," on Sun day. This photoplay promises to bo something new, for Mix Is giving tho public his Idea of what a fast mov ing, rapid-Are. sure-hit story ot the West Is, and how he believes rea Westerners would Interpret it. As In all Tom Mix productions, many thrilling and hazardous deeds ot daring are performed by the author-director and his supporting com pany. Mix rides through water falls Into tho cave of the bandits, jumps frotm his horse to a train moving at the, rate of thirty miles an hour, rescues his sweetheart hy aliasing hor froaa the train to the back ot his falthfnl horse, and Introduces some novel rope-throwing features.
