Raymond Robins, noted publicist
and lecturer, formerly head of the Red
Cross Commission in Russia, may
speak in Lexington soon on the subject of Russia, and his experience in
that country during his connection
with the Red Cross.
At the beginnig of America's participation in the war, Mr. Robins turned
his talents and energy toward the aid
of Red Cross, and was sent to Russia
to assume charge of the work of this
organization. While in Petrogad, he
came in contact with the various leaders of the different factions and gained
an influflence over both Lenine and
Trotsky. He used this influence in
trying to ward off German intrigue,
and it has been said of him that he
more than any one man or any force
postponed the signing of the
treaty for a period of several
months, and by so doing served to
hold Russia as an ally of the countries
opposed to Germany. In dealing with
Lenine, he impressed upon the head
of the Soviet government the dangers
that would ensue to Russia thru the
loss of confidence on the part of the
Allies, the United States in particular,
and by this means was enabled to put
off the hour when Russia entered into
Brest-Litovs- k

In the March issue of the American

by Professor Bancroft, of the Chemical
Department. The article deals with a
recent experiment made by Professor
Bancroft and contains much valuable
information.
Professor James of the Education
Department, just returned from a trip
to Utica, Owensboro and Livermore,
where he has been visiting the State
Vocational Agricultural Schools. He
was accompanied on this trip by Mr.
J. A. LInke, Federal Regional Agricultural Director, from Indianapolis. In
a meeting Wednesday and Thursday
Professor James met with Mr. Linke
and Professor Rhoads to discuss plans
of vocational education for the ensuing
year.

many seasons, the student has been
compelled to agitate and disturb innumerable professors, janitors and
such like useful creatures in order to
obtain a flow of water in the highly
ornamental fountains of the campus.
There has been a shrewd suspicion
in the minds of many of us that certain students, despairing of moisture
on the campus have sought out those
fountains installed by
citizens and provided with glass swinging doors, in order to store enough of
dampness to absorb the heat of the
day. The time must come soon, however, when such fountains will be a
