The semi-annual recurrence of "weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth" is upon us, and every body you meet wears a look as of one sent for and unable to go.
--comings no one, least of all the management, will deny. The present management, which practically, will be in charge next year, wishes to thank the stockholders for whatever courtesy and indulgence they have shown, and to pledge themselves to a better and more representative paper next year. The best interests of the University and a square deal to all will be the policy at all times.
The limited accommodations for commencement give the freshman a good excuse to hurry home as soon as he "kills" the last quiz. When the new auditorium is completed everybody and his friends may find room in plenty on this as on other occasions, and it can be made more thoroughly a University event than now.

The second annual May Music Festival was certainly all that could be desired in the way of entertainment, and its continuance bids fair to be one of the University events to be anticipated with pleasure and looked back upon with satisfaction. The Cantatta Saturday evening was alone worth more than the price of the three entertainments as operas and prices go, and the management is to be congratulated on the success of the whole.

Nearly two hundred students will leave the University next week to return only occasionally as alumni visiting their Alma Mater. The people of the state have done all that they can do for these graduates in an educational way. They now owe it to these people, to the University and to themselves to see that the University is placed in the right light before the skeptical and fault-finding throughout the state. When they do this, they discharge any debt of gratitude that mao be owing to those who are responsible for the existence and support of the institution.

The publication of the KANSAN ends for the year in this issue: In some respects the year just closing has seen improvements in the paper; and especially in the manner of its organization. That there have been shortcomings no one, least of all the management, will deny. The present management, which practically, will be in charge next year, wishes to thank the stockholders for whatever courtesy and indulgence they have shown, and to pledge themselves to a better and more representative paper next year. The best interests of the University and a square deal to all will be the policy at all times.

The KANSAN election Monday was a radical departure from the exciting canvass that has characterized the annual election in years past. The present system insures the selection for the administrative officers of the best men who are really interested in newspaper work. This the old system did not do, and to that extent present conditions make for a better University paper. But the new system does not swell the subscription list as the old method did, an it is "up to" the students who will be in the University next fall to see to it that the paper does not suffer in this respect. If the KANSAN could secure one thousand subscribers next year it could be published three times a week and would pay the management enough to make possible the best college paper in the West. Tie a string to your first spare dollar and try to be first in line next fall.

TAKE HIGHER WORK AT K. U.
In the graduating class of the college of the University of Kansas are eighteen students who were admitted to advanced standing in the University on work done in other colleges of Kansas and elsewhere. The number of students who are entering the University for higher research work that cannot be secured elsewhere is constantly increasing. With the increased equipment and faculty the University is enabled to do more and more work that belongs in the domain of the real University and students are taking advantage of the fact.
