AN UNSIGHTLY PROJECT
Far above the golden valley Glorious to view...
Thus begins the "Crimson and the Blue," beloved by thousands of University students and alumni because it brings to the mind's eye a realistic picture of the Alma Mater and awakens new feelings of loyalty.
M. Otre is "glorious to view" from whatever direction one approaches it. The traveller coming from the east, the student returning from the south, and the citizen of Kansas approaching from the west all are impressed with the sight of the Hill crowned with the buildings of the state University.
But now the city of Lawrence would spoil the contour of the Hill by erecting an unsightly 140-foot water tower near the west end of the campus. Already it has purchased a lot behind the two sorority houses located there. Unless some definite action to the contrary is taken, the building of the tower will start before long.
Not only will this ungainly structure spoil the appearance of the campus, but it will make one of the finest residential districts of the city look, at least from a distance, like a commercial section. The University is the distinctive institution of Lawrence. Without the school the city would be but another average sized town near Kansas City. This contribution should merit some consideration.
A petition has been drawn up to prevent the construction of the tower. Love of the traditional beauty of the University will actuate each of its members and friends to register his protest against this prospective eyesore.
We hear a terrible stink was raised at the KAT house last night when the Phi Psis tried to help the Theta pledges collect black cats for initiation.
ADMONITION TO AN INFANT
Joe, come away from that fire.
Burny, burny. Now come over
here like a good little boy and
sit down. My, look at those
hands! Didn't you wash them
when I told you to? Don't be
imprentive, Joe. (smack).
Now Joe, don't cry. It was for your own good. You never seem to learn anything until it is beat into your curly little head. There now, quit squirming and listen to me.
When you take out your automobile and drive it recklessly don't you know that you are endangering your life and others as well? You think it is smart, don't you, to zip around a corner, but you are really being so very silly. What little girl on the block are you trying to impress when you drive fast and carelessly?
You know, Joe, you never can be taught anything until you get hurt. Sense has to be battered into you with a hot, driving flash of pain. In fact, Joe, you are a great deal like your uncle at the University.
COUNTY CLUBS
The county clubs at one time formed a strong link between the University and the home town. Their purpose was to encourage high school students to come to the University.
Two years ago when the county clubs were discontinued, interest in them had died, with many counties having no organization at all and the remainder functioning only half-heartedly. The University, which had been lending financial assistance to the clubs and supplying them with printed matter, withdrew its support and the clubs ceased.
That they performed a worthy function is illustrated in the story of a young man from western Kansas. He tells how his county sent ten students to the University four years ago. This fall, with 41 students going to schools of higher education, only he came here.
The University needs enterprising and enthusiastic county clubs to spread the fame of Kansas. Properly managed they can do much to bring the youth of the state to the University. By presenting a program at the home town high school during vacation, by sending Jayhawkers to the local schools, and in general "talking up" the University, they can turn young men and women toward Mt. Oread.
INSULL FREE AGAIN
The Greek courts for the second time within a few months have refused to release Samuel Insull, fallen Chicago utility magnate, to the United States authorities.
In the first attempt to extradite Insull, charges of embezzlement and larceny were filed, but they were not proven to the court's satisfaction and he was set free. The second charge filed was of fradulant bankruptcy, but it also has failed and he is again free as far as Greek justice is concerned. Each time before formal papers were submitted, Mr. Insull became very ill and went to a hospital, but immediately upon his acquittal he moved back to a luxurious hotel—a well man.
The decision was a surprise to the American delegation and to the American people, for they were almost certain of his extradition on the second charge. The government has carried on an unceasing campaign to bring him to justice ever since his arrest, and although new charges have not been filed, they are expected soon and his life of ease will probably give way to one of "making little ones out of big ones."
Campus Opinion
Pardon my bewilderment, but I have noticed no comment on the unmistakable rank odor—just a whiff of our "Mary Rose." A bit of a weed there, mates, and I'm sure they're not actors are swell, but how about the man who see all—knows all, the director?
Editor Daily Kansan:
Who failed to notice the distracting gestures and the ill-timed motions of a silent player during the reading of another's lines? The most important person of all, the director, didn't rate a six-year-old. (She was there.) Officially there is no stage direction.
The correspondent, who eats crackers in bed, does not style himself as anything but a second-rate moron, particularly as one who had heard of Mr. Barrie before this week, but he is entrenched in the belief that "Mary" should be buried with an apology to this literary gentleman.
Of these prejudiced against the Ehbeli Barrymore school of voice tremolo I am one. But in spite of all these hard words I endorse the Kansar's rave review, with this reservation: that it's impossible for a failure to eliminate a technic that puts Hollywood's lousiest quickie on a higher shelf.
Stan (pun) Pat.
Did you see the platform published by one of the political parties on the Hill the other day? Suppose we freshen look at it as fairly as possible and deide its worth.
editor Daily Kansan:
I think this Hill politics is OK, but I wish they'd play square. I believe in putting the credit where it's due. I speak in particular of the Australian bal-
fox, the Fracamacia party claims credit for it because it was passed by a Pacha-

Monday evening is the deadline on money for the Nebraska trip. You may pay it to Dorothy Davis or leave it with Evangeline Clarke at the Teacher's Appointment bureau in Fraser hall any time between 1:30 and 4:20.
As you stop to take a mental inventory, view each part of your life in relation to your desired goal, and hitherto insignificant parts of your life will stand out in surprising importance. You will perhaps be able to catch a dim glimpse of "what it is all about." -J.M. VH, Daily Tail Heel.
Depth and reality of interests are essential if one would achieve that great plan of life to which he aspires. Those interests which are offered must be scanned in relation, not for themselves only. Living that is satisfactory can never be bhapaskar. It must be careful, to avoid losing oneself in a smug, complacent affair. It is the testimony. To live carefully requires infinite courage and determination.
Unsold Jayhawk Wabble tickets must be checked in at the Business office Saturday morning. JESSAMINE JACKSON, President.

MARION BEATTY, Chairman.
Y. W. C. A.:
camae council. (What other council, may I ask, could have passed it?) If they recognized its value so soon, why didn't they pass it when it was presented to them by their opponents in a petition last year? It was the Freshman council, a non-partisan organization, that saw its worth. This organization hated to see the plan fail just because it had been started by the other party. They then petitioned for it so strongly that it could not be ignored.
The K.U. traditions and Freshman Frolic we can dismiss. The first belongs to the school and we reserve the latter to ourselves. Let's keep them out of politics.
The W.W.C.A. Membership banquet will be held Tuesday, Nov. 7, at 6 p.m. in the Memorial Union building. All houses have been requested to make this a closed date. Old and new members must have reservations in at Henley house before Monday noon.
FRANCES BALLARD, President.
Then the activity ticket. I feel that they are justified in saying that it's not perfect. We all know that anything new has knicks, but we can not exempt everyone and make it go. I hope the administration irons out the wrinkles as soon as possible, but I fail to see that either political party platform is the place to pass on the justifications of exemptions.
Everything considered, we freshmen feel that all the things offered on this ticket have either been decided already, and the credit misplaced, or are purely ion-partisan problems.
Our Contemporaries
It is truly necessary today to stop and consider carefully if you have become simply a piece of flotsam borne on the water, or washed back by the receding tide.

Significant Living
C. P.
At this time when mid-semesters are just ended and everyone gladiately breathes a sigh of relief, one is inclined to ask "What it it all about?" This is no answer to that question, for the writer is is not that wise. This is simply an attempt to put across some ideas that might help to clarify matters.
Perhaps one's immediate task seems unimportant in the general scheme of life. One views life as a whole—not realizing the thousands of tiny parts which must be gathered to lend harmony and compositeness to the perfect whole.
In youth it is so easy to become seriously sidetracked. Life today especially at a large university — has many diverse interests to offer. To be versatile it is quite right and most advisable to take a little of one thing and a little of another. The universitary man today would have a hard time achieving even an existence in as complex a civilization as we now live in. But, and this is the point, out of all of these interests there are those which when you graduate your life will help to compile your plan for the future and there are those which will cause your plan to become submerged under diverging interests that your whole scheme of living will become aimless, restless, and unsatisfying.
PLAIN TALES from the HILL
A certain sorority pledge who thinks she is inclined to overweight is quite perturbed over the fact that she has put on the present when the pledge picture was taken, for the statement "Those who are not in the picture are" preceded her name in the Jayhawker magazine.
We thought that our height of surprise had been reached a month or so ago when we heard a grey haired professor say that he had seen Mae West five times in "She Done Him Wrong." But we were wrong. The Lid was blown off with a bang when a report came in that Dr. Cady had advised his chemistry students to "come up and see him some-thing" if they couldn't get their lesson.
All was quiet on the second floor of Watson library. Students were hustily studying. Suddenly, however, a sound similar to the creaking of a rusty joint was heard. It reoccurred several times during the next hour and caused quite a disturbance. To the great surprise of all, the dog giant police dog had merely been wawning. None of the doors had creaky rusty joints.
Professor Flint was criticizing the poor attempts made by some members in his advertising class.
"Soon, however," he said, "we will get something that will make us rise out of our chairs."
In subdued tones one student muttered, "Yeah, the whistle."
One woman student and her mascuseine companion started across the street car tracks. George Snyder, director of traffic stationed at that intersection, called the police and ped the automobile traffic, and said in honeyed voice: "Come on girls."
It was during the 11:30 inter-cless rush.
I've read enough . . .
now I'm going to get
busy."
Every front page in the country is telling you that higher prices are inevitable and we know one man who believed them.
Came in this week, and said, "I've read enough... now I'm going to get busy... show me a suit, overcoat and all the trimmings I'm ready to do business today if I can save money."
He did . . . and you can . . .
and no one who knows the clothing business can contradict this.
Why not run in this week and pay a visit . . . instead of waiting until next month and paying an increase?
