An application tor membership

introduced simultaneously in both
houses of Congress last week, according to information received by
UK library officials.

years. Tliis sum would be added
to Uie $25,000 now granted by the
State of Kentucky to the State Library Extension Agency.

tion.

To Library 'Stocks'
shelves for library
Additional
books are being added aaiust the
'inner stacks" room of the UK library.
The additional shelves will help
to solve the problem of placing
thirty thousand books which the
library adds yearly. It is expected
that ten to fifteen thousand books
can be shelved in the new stacks.
Shelves added in the past sevcral
years have almost eliminated space
for study tables.

Courtship, Marriage
Are Subject Of Talks
Dr. Irwin T. Sanders, head of the
sociology department, started his
series of talks to the Pitkin Club. His subject matter concerns courtship, marriage, and the
family.
Students who want to become
members of the Pitkin Club may
apply at the YWCA or YMCA office

By John Roberts
What is this thing called "love?"
Is it something that blossoms
forth on a few days a year when
someone tells us, "Go out and
spread forth this joyous thing for
I decree this day of love."

Do we have to be told that once
we must love everyone and
send each other beautiful cards saying so?
I have often wondered why we
cannot show the spirit of St. Valentine's Day every day. And as I
pondered it came into my thick
.skull that most of us do. We send
wives,
our mothers,
sweethearts
candy and other tokens of our love
on the occasion we, or they, see
fit. But comes Valentine's Day and
our simple little hearts are filled
with joy and our simple little heads
are filled with dreadful thoughts of
what may befall us should we not
send "her" a token of love in the
box of candy.

Dear Editor:
"Cad" 's letter last week complaining about having to attend
sorority open house gave me to
laugh, once my wrath had died
down.
In fact, that was the reaction of
most sorority girls I talked to about
it, namely :. "Hah!"
In the first place, it was the fraternities, most definitely not the
sororities, that wanted open houses.
In the second place, what under
the shining sun gave "Cad" the impression that we enjoyed them in
the least?
We are about as anxious to give
one of the.se dull stupid functions
as we are to keep a dentist's appointment. "Cad" would get an interesting insight into our reactions
if he could hear the shrieks, groans,
and cries of horror when they are
announced at our meetings.
After we make all the tiresome
preparations for one of these revolting afternoons, we have to get
drefsed, be checked in so as no'-- to
be fined, paste an artificial grin
on our faces and wait for the arrival of the first bunch of oafs.
Sure enough, there they come,
trooping awkwardly in, false grins
on their faces, hats in hand. We
suppress our muttered oaths and
protests and wait for one of them
to say, "Gulp, hullo, I'da brang ye
a bunch of posies ef I'da thought."
or "Rebop, chick, check them
squares."
They never actually say that but
one has the impression all afternoon that they did say that.
The only consolation is the refuge
of one of the lads you already know
