From the Lawrence Daily World for Feb. 20, 1908: “Several people have expressed dissatisfaction with our public schools and officials say they plan to listen to their concerns and make remedies where necessary and possible. There is always room for improvement but for the most part our schools are to be highly commended. : Arrangements are being made for a big meeting in KU’s Robinson Gym next Sunday night when William J. Bryan will speak, free, on ‘The Prince of Peace,’ his most popular lecture.”
