Old Home Town – 100 years ago

From the Lawrence Daily World for April 29, 1908: Today in Gov. Hoch’s office in Topeka is an important meeting of regents and representatives of state schools. Their feeling is that the Legislature needs to do a far better job of funding these schools, particularly the common schools of Kansas, which may not get as much money as other higher institutions. … If you have enough money you can establish a scholarship in almost anything. The latest scholarship at the university here is in the science of bread-baking.
