THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 24, 1915 THE ORIENTAL SITUATION Infrequency of news items concerning the Orient appearing in the papers today does not mean that things aren't happening there. Other news is just crowding it out. It seems that Japan is quite elated over the Italio-Ethiopian situation. The world's eyes are being away from their penetration into China which is still going on at a rapid rate. Some people claim, and it seems to be the truth, that Chinese government officials have been drinking toasts with Japanese officials, while Chinese soldiers were being mowed down with machine gunsmanned by Japanese. On the surface the Chinese government hasn't been doing much about the situation. But, that is only on the surface. Generalissimo Chung Kai-shek has gone into western China and established a formidable air base, his purpose being to get a strong Chinese section which is not threatened by the Japanese and from which he can work. While Japan controls the Chinese government today they won't do so forever if the plan of Kai-shek proves successful. The Japanese Military Attache at Shanghai, Gen. Reuske Isaiqi, said recently, "I hope the Chinese people themselves will bring about all the changes necessary to produce a stable Chinese government under a responsible leader with whom Japan can deal . . . we believe that eventually China's 400,000,000 people will arise and overthrow the present selfish regime. . . However if a crisis arises, Japan is fully prepared to step in and make the necessary sacrifices to establish a stable regime. . . Only two solutions are possible for China's military instrument and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek must institute fundamental changes of policy, or the five Northern Provinces must be entirely separated from the Nanking government, establishing an independent administration." Several comments might be made about this statement. It seems that the Japanese realize the size and power of China if the people there are ever educated. And either economic or militaristic penetration on the part of Japan will educate the people to such an extent that they will revolt against Japanese domination and become the big power in the Orient. Japan may be able to step in, make the necessary sacrifices, and establish a stable regime. But such a government would be only temporary for Japan can not possibly control all of China for the most part. In this regard, China is in a more educated China being formed, thus opening great markets to the rest of the world. Further, it seems that the border skirmish between Manchukuo troops and Russian army guards isn't going to be dropped by the Russian government. A satisfactory explanation will have to be made by Manchukuo, Japanese puppeteer, or serious complications may develop which will retard Japan in her Chinese program. Members of the freshman class at the University or Kansas City went on a vote strike yesterday, saying through a pamphlet that "we have watched the selection of candidates for freshman offices, and have seen a party dominate and dictate our policies" and "we refuse to be dictated to." Now if the cities, the states and the nation had a majority of voters like that, what in the world would become of real politics? Kansas City Times. UNRECOGNIZED BEAUTY Believe it or not, ladies and gentlemen there are sixty beauty queens chosen every year. But even so, the University is unable to meet the demand. It has become necessary for coeds, blessed with a bountiful supply of physical beauty, to seek acclamation in fields afar, or to be exact, in the American Royal Livestock Show in Kansas City. Such a sorry state of affairs. Beauty all around us, but we pass it by. Potential queens on every side, yet each year the University allows only 60 of them to be officially recognized. Why that isn't even two a week. Can we blame our queens for taking their priceless beauty from our unappreciative campus? No longer should we let such fair creatures fade and wilt away under the terrible stigma of non-recognition. As loyal sons and daughters of our ancestors, we must demand a change in this retractible situation. Let's make every coed a queen.

At the present time, in the United States, education consists in every year jamming twenty-four million students into the same individual is lost in the jam. Everybody receives the same treatment. The genius and the moron share the same instruction. So it is that the public schools and colleges of this country are factory imitations. While the teachers of these schools work daily grind, the factory whistle in Union towns calls the laborers to their toll. From 9 to 5 these labores feed furnaces in smelting works, and, during the same hour, work on their brains for the reason why parallel lines never meet. Just as a factory prides itself on the number of products it manufactures, so do teachers exalt in the number of subjects they teach. They try to emulate the fifty-seven varieties of Heinz. Old kids make homework-helping cards and other school materials. The same principles that operate in our public schools today govern the factories the country over. Mass production in the factories. Compulsory universal education in the schools. Uniform treatment of raw materials in the factories. Uniform treatment of students in the schools. Steam roller methods and glorified book-keeping in both. One difference, however, confronts us in the factories, one deals with dead, inert, innate beings with live, active, applied human beings are dealt with. Yet the same methods are applied to both. The effects of educational factories on their products are becoming evident in the personality of the average American today. The intellectual, moral and emotional attitudes of the people are suffering. Wholesale factory workers are often forced to work in the interior in our age. Simplicity, directness, depth and intellect is being lost in American life. We are growing more shallow, more superficial. In order to avoid the state toward which we are heading, the educational factories must go. They must learn to teach a new language and receive inspirational instruction and will advance along the lines where nature has best fitted him—R.M. Our Contemporaries WARNING POSTED! Oklahoma Dails What a reflection it is upon the state of the world's development that a new nation cannot set out upon its career without being warned and armed against marauding states that pass as civilized nations. But judging from conditions now, that is just the situation the Philippines will find when the United States gives them their independence 10 years hence. And while this will still be dispensed to prey upon their weaker neighbors. Once the United States has given them their freedom, we cannot afford to guard over them and see that they retain it. But it is our moral obligation to prepare them for dangers that independence involves in the modern world. President Roosevelt has lent the new Philippine government the services of Gen. Douglas MacArthur, the former chief of staff of the American army, to organize the military defense of the islands. Provided MacArthur is given adequate co-operation, he should accomplish much of the tasks required rendering the consequent of the Philippines difficult. But the greatest safeguard of the islanders still depends upon their capacity to govern themselves.

Shirt Tails and Nightgowns of All Sizes, Shapes and Description Will Be Worn BY DONALD CURRY, e. 20 Forensic the customary member of classroom history at the University of Kansas will put on their "evening clothes" Friday night for the elegance of the thirty-fourth annual night shirt parade. The yearly frolic is heralded as "The Men's Own Fashion Show," and will bring out not only the latest, but also the nike models in shirt-tails, night-gowns, and pajamas in all sizes, shapes, and descriptions. With the Kansas State game to be played the following afternoon, the enthusiastic students will clux their knees and celebrate with a huge rally in South Park where student and alumni spell-binders will dip the final dose of pep for the Jayhawks opening big Six conference tournament. The students will reward the revelers for their long trump from Mount Oread to the Park and as was customary in other years, Lawrence citizens will hear the whowoos and as they march their gaycases far into the night. One of Oldest Traditions The annual night shirt parade is one of the oldest University of Kansas traditions. In the early history of Kansas football it was customary to have the first game of the season with Baker University. A victory in this first contest was always followed by a big celebration. At first this celebration was nothing more than a crowd meeting students going down to Chancey Franklin H. Snowhouse and awakening him with their Rock chalkells. When the news of a Kansas victory in the first game of the 1924 season which had been out of town reached Lawrence, a mob of rooters rushed to the residence of Chancellor Frank Lawrence, the chancellor had already retired, but, when he arrived, the students, he appeared and expressed his happiness at the outcome of the game. The rosters greeted his appearance with shouts of approval and, in order to commemorate the chancellor's spirit of fan, they downed the carved from the Hill down the streets. For a number of years thereafter, the parade was held the night of the first football victory of the season. It was changed to the night of the first game of the season, however, and conceived on that last day. In 1923, it happened that a lone lumbering came so near the beginning of the school semester that the annual parade of the pajama-clad was changed to the night preceding the Kansas State game. Again this year the first home game has been passed by and the traditional rivals from 'ways out' have been chosen as the occasion for the colorful spectacle. Street Cars Appropriated It was the early years of the parade it was on almost annual occurrence to have some of the students either appropriate one or some of the cars out of commission. In 1912 the Jayhawk pip makers, having "craised" a theater and viewed the show, returned to Massachusetts street and boarded a car. On the return trip from Haskell the motorman, fearing trouble from the hilarious crowd, turned into the car hairs. Enraged, he shattered to dampen the spirits of the crowd, lysing the hose on him, but the students took the hose away from them and proceeded to return the ducking. Similar incidents marked other nights that poppers allied forth in their night clothing in, 1919, two students were injured when a street car, Street Cars Appropriated going at a high rate of speed, struck a group of about 200 patrons waiting to enter a theater. The car had been stopped by students who had pulled the trooper from the wire, and angered the driver. The car backward up the wrong side of the street and into the crowd. The accident accused public resentment to the extent that in later years, much to the satisfaction of the motormen, the street cars were put safely in the barns and students began their snake dose. can now enjoy the wonderful com- fort and convenience which only few have known before.

In earlier years the students would file past HIL coinfectionaires and receive candy and ice cream and they reached the downtown section of the city and would feed them again. Post-war years saw the merchants in their most liberal spirits, and it was a tempting array of food that was passed out to the cheering as it filed by Sandwiches, doughnuts, chicken, cookies, cider, near-beer, peanuts, popcorn, bacon, pretzels, etc. distribution over the counties to the 2000 hungry University men who either made way over the football result of that afternoon, or eased sad memories of the same event.
