The play is an amusing critique on
the average man who fights the world
valiantly and never realizes that his
wife wins his battles for him.
Throughout the performance the
lines are Teplete with charming hu
mor and delightful wit.
Leonard Beebe, the hopeful young
clerk who reads "Success," takes
courses in correspondence schools, and
trusts himself implicitly, is played
by Oskar Hambleton. Mr. Hambleton is always excellent, but in this
role he surpasses himself. Young
Beebe blunders hopefully along, and
is rescued from each embarrassing
situation by his tactful wife, who, he
says, is "only a woman." The foibles
and weaknesses of the clerk keep the
audience in a continuous roar of
laughter and in the few serious scenes
the audience vacillates between smiles
and tears. Such is the versatility of
Mr. Hambleton.

TAYLOR, CHAIRMAN
U. of K. Men Asked to
Aid in Under-

taking

The Kentucky Educational Associ
ation, through the efforts of its president, Dr. Chas. A. Keith, of Rich
mond, is attempting to make an in
tensive study of the problems confronting Kentucky's public school
program. To assist him in working
out these problems, Dr. Keith has ap
pointed a number of committees, one
on research, another on taxation, a
third on educational publicity and a
fourth on' the
of school
laws.
W. S. Taylor, dean of the college of
education of the University of Ken
tucky, has been appointed chairman
of the committee on research which
comprises Professor A. C. Burton,
Superintendent R E. Hill, Supermten
dent J. F. Foust and Mr. George M.
Baker. The chairman of this com

mittee has stated that the great problem of the committee on research for
the next biennium will be to make a
careful study of state boards of edu
cation in order that this committee
may be of assistance to the committee
on legislation in drafting a bill that
will give to Kentucky a properly con
stituted state board of education
This, in the opinion of leading educators in Kentucky, is the greatest
need of Kentucky's public school pro
gram at the present time.
A second problem which this com
mittee will study carefully and in detail will bo that of proper certifica
tion law for the public school sys
tem.
S. E. Leland and M. E. Ligon,
both of the university faculty, have
been appointed members of these com
mittees; Mr. Leland on the committee
on school finance and taxation, and
Mr. Ligon on the committee on re
codification of state school laws.

LAW STUDENTS TO

Winners Are to Enter
an Inter-CouContest
rt

From year to year in the college of
law, moot courts have been organized
and allowed to die out, Henry Clay
law societies have been installed and

gradually abandoned, but this year
real, live law clubs are being organized, and instead of slowly dying, they
will carry on throughout the year.
A plan which has been adopted by
several of the larger law schools, and
in every case have worked success
fully, will be tried here. Altogether
different from the old plan a num
ber of clubs will be organized so that
every student may be a member of
a club. Eight men will compose each
club, and they will form a court to
argue and conduct cases and to debate questions of law. The instruc
tors in the college of law will act as
judges. Members of the Lexington
bar have also volunteered to preside
in the several clubs.
Near the end of the second semes
ter, members of the different clubs
having the highest percentage of
cases won' in their respective courts
will represent the club in an
contest, the winner of which
Miss Clara
will receive a prize.
White, law college librarian, will act
as secretary of the clubs and the re
suits of the cases will be reported
to her. Several clubs are already
functioning and others are now in
the process of organization.

OF Til 13 UNIVERSITY

To know the history and needs of the University of Kentucky one lias
only to read the following article prepared by Dr. Frank L. McVey, for the
Bond Issue Campaign Book:
The University of Kentucky is one of agricultural and mechanical col
leges that owes its origin to the Morrill Act of July 2, 18G2. Instead of
establishing at once, as most states did, a higher educational institution, the
Legislature did not place it upon an independent basis but made it one of
the colleges of Kentucky University, now Transylvania College. To this
institution the annual interest of the proceeds of the Congressional land
grant was given for the purpose of carrying on its operations. This con
tinucd until 1878, when the act was repealed and a commission appointed
to work out a plan for a state university. The city of Lexington offered
the commission the city park containing 52 acres of land and $30,000 of
city bonds which gift was supplemented by an additional 20,000 in bonds
given by Fayette county. With the money buildings were erected and the
institution established at Lexington. In 1908 the name of the institution
was changed from Agricultural and Mechanical. College to that of State
University and it was again modified in 191G to the title of University of
in its character; it ap
Kentucky. This instituton is
peals with confidence to the people of all creeds and endeavors, in strict
conformity to the requirements of the law, to afford equal advantages to
all and exclusive privileges to none.
As n department of the university, the Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion was created in September, 1885, under the vnrious provisions of federal law which provide nnnunl appropriations for the support of the Experiment Station. In 1912 the legislature voted an appropriation of $50,000
in addition to the amounts granted by the federal government for this work.
The purpose of the station is to carry on a continuous succession of
experiments by specialists in order to learn what the application of science
will do in bringing the best returns from the farm, the garden, the orchard,
the vineyard, the stock yards and the dairy. In addition to this the Lx
pcriment Station is engaged in publication of bulletins announcing the re
suits of these experiments which have brought untold advantages to the
Act was passed establish
farmers of the state. In 1912 the Smith-Leve- r
ing agricultural extension work which was placed in charge of the Agricul
tural College of the University of Kentucky. Under the provisions of this
act, county agents are maintained in the counties of the state, and special
home demonstration and agricultural agents arc employed to carry on
the work of agricultural education.
The teaching division of the university is divided into six colleges, the
Summer Session and the Unversity Extension. The colleges and schools
thus established are those of Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Agricultural,
Law, Education and Graduate Work. The university also maintains a li
brary which can be used by citizens of the state. This library now con
