ENTERTAINING NEIGHBORING STATES By Louise Baird sillily m appreciation of Hull everyday event a dust storm. T buy serious complaints have been made by students of I he Fori Mays Kansas State ollege. They hate the dust sticking in I heir throats and hanging in their hair and eyebrows. Their most serious complaint, however, is that il is not altogether Kansas dust they line! in their focal, in their beds and in their bathtubs, hut visiting dust from neighboring stales. They even go so far as in sa that they have entertained as many as ihree different states in one day. Oklahoma in tin morning. (Colorado at noon, and Ne- braska at night. One student made his complain I in a mournful lone, lie did not consider il a favor to eat Dakota in his soup or to dine on goulash flavored by a bit of old yoming. In fuel, he considered il simply awful to find Kansas in his lea. Nebraska in his w allies, and Colorado in his slaw— and no joking mailer to have a loplayer of Vrkansas in ev cry cup of coffee. Yet another made his plaint, the while holding a string of sad-lonking carp that he had apparently just finished pulling from Big ( ’.reek. I his misguided youth was bemoaning I he fad one tumid not even go outside for a breath of fresh air because I he air was so lilled with dust from the neighboring stales, lie little realized how much more fortunate he was than I In poor lis h he had just caught, for the carp. too. had just stuck their noses out for a breath of Iresh air when suddenly they were scooped up and hurried home to serve a the main course of a dinner, to be served up with Nebraska flavoring. Somehow these students do not realize the many advantages of I his weather that causes states to go calling. Now one need not spend his hard-earned dollars to drive hundreds of miles just for the purpose of seeing his neigh- boring stale . These states of the wide-open spaces and t heir much-vaunted scenic wonders can he entertained right on I he campus with much less expense. If the visitor is of a reddish hue the host and hostess will know that Oklahe tna has come to call on them. Suppose I he guest ' s favorite color is black; why then, the guest may well he from Nebraska or Dakota. If he is alii rod in bright yellow. I hen Texas is the guest. drab gray characterizes the native of Kansas w hen he gets up dust enough to go I raveling. The wise student would look for these distinguishing colors and dress accordingly . Such a welcome is not afforded the visitors on Fort May s campus. W hen I In word goes out that another dusl storm has arrived, an army of workers with their I rusty dust-mops, dust-cloths, brooms and pails Hock to their appointed pi es. They simply have no regard for the feelings of the states hut attack them fiercely until the guests are made to feel that they are not welcome. 1 1 is said that some e c n go lo the extent of sealing their windows and barring their doors in an attempt lo keep away unwelcome callers. movement has been started for the organization of a new course in Dust ppre- chilion. This course would show llu ad- vantages of visiting states and would stale the proper etiquette for their reception and entertainment. Through such a course the proper altitudes and appreciations should lx developed. Such dust stories as these would be studied and appreciated. There was a man at Sharon Springs who was hit by three drops of rain and knocked unconscious. Il look Ihree buckets of dust to revive him. farmer saw a hat lying by the roadside but on picking il up lie found a head under- nealli it. The fellow refused the farmer ' s offer of a ride because he said lie was on his horse. 2S
