A WORTHY MEMORIAL
Since the days of the pharaohs it has been a natural and laudable desire for men to wish to perpetuate his name or his family's. The massive, unemotional pyramids express the selfish or egotic side of this ambition, for the giant Egyptian tombs were built with sweat and blood of millions of men
The L. N. Lewis bequest to the University is an expression in memorials at the other extreme. This bequest will be used for the good of man rather than at his expense. Only a few alternatives are offered those who would give money for the improvement of society. A gift to a public institution such as a university stands among the really worthy memorials.
As his memorial, Mr. Lewis has willed that the University is eventually to receive a large sum, in memory of Alexander and Mary Frances Lewis, the donor's father and mother. Although the medium is different, the spiritual beauty of this gift is as inspiring as the minaret spires of the Taj Mahal—another memorial.
A LULL IN THE STORM
A temporary truce between the bandsmen and the University authorities has ended hostilities for the time being. It has been rather a nice sort of war up to the present, with both sides acting with all of the chivalry of a medieval tournament.
In this controversy the musicians have conducted themselves with a surprising amount of decorum. A factor that seldom characterizes student "revolts." Now that the authorities have acceded to three of their six demands, the bandsmen have sensibly decided to "go back to the mines" pending the outcome of the University Senate meeting in November.
Whatever the success or failure of the musicians' platform, they will win or lose their points with a clean record. The charge will never be laid against them that they took unfair advantage of their situation.
RECOGNIZING RUSSIA
The proposed recognition of Soviet Russia by the United States is another definite step forward by the Roosevelt administration. The President's invitation to Russia to negotiate for Russian recognition, although somewhat tardy, was apparently met with enthusiasm by the people of the Soviet Union.
This proposal seems to have everything in its favor. The Russian government has been in existence long enough to prove its soundness. Russiain industry, which before the war was in a medieval stage, has developed until today industrial Russia rivals any country. Recognition of Russia will increase United States exports and at the same time increase Russian trade. This has already been seen; as soon as the news of the proposed recognition was released, Wall Street banks prepared
to make loans to Amtorg, the Russian trading agency. Recognition of Russia will encourage world peace. With Russia trade and sympathy at its disposal the United States will be less dependent on German trade.
Putting the United States on friendly terms with Russia after 16 years of steadfast refusal in Washington to recognize that country should have a salutary effect on both national and international affairs.
A NEW DAY BREAKING
Back in 1516 Sir Thomas More's book, "Utopia," predicted the four-hour day. Now, some four hundred years later, that dream is in a fair way to being realized .
Machines and labor-saving inventions have freed man from the necessity of continually toiling to produce enough of the world's goods. In fact, our economic ills are the result of overproduction—the unemployed go hungry in a world bulging with food.
Centuries ago, ten men would have had to labor from sun-up to sun-down to wrench from the soil a bare sustenance. Now, one man can produce enough to feed and clothe the other nine. The remaining nine thus liberated may turn their hands toward the things which are of lesser importance but which make this world a more pleasant place in which to live.
Many men are now available to raise the cultural progress of mankind to somewhere near the same level of the material progress. In the fields of painting, music, literature, sculpture, and architecture, they have soil waiting to be tilled.
Releasing men from the plow and the machine lever will be a great step in the progress of civilization, if these men can find just compensation for their work in the several arts.
Campus Opinion
Editor Daily Kansay:
After the highly informative and controversial article by L.W.C. in the Kansan Campus Opinion column, we may inform you that future such informative articles as:
Joe College came over yesterday to read the Ballyhoo, but for some unknown reason roused Rover's ire, who promptly attached himself to Joe's heel. After treating Rover for acute indigestion, we retreated to the talkie auditorium; passing an enjoyable afternoon munching popcorn.
I always had a hazy notion that the purpose of the Campus Opinion column was to give an opportunity for the members of the faculty and student body to present and discuss problems of interest to the members of the "Hill." Will the editor be so kind as to set us straight?
M. C.
Editor Daily Kansan:
Now that everyone else is gripping about something let's turn our attention to the swell football programs we are having thrown at us. I am all for the programs and think they are great, except the last one put out here was a great flop as far as getting your well-known money's worth.
Our Jayhawk Gridirator was 16 pages for the sum of 25 cents. At the Creighton game, their program exactly the same size, was only 24 pages and sold for ten cents; increase in size of 50 per cent over the Gridirator and only two-fifths the price. Well, that isn't so bad, but now compare that same Jayhawk Gridirator with the souvenir program put out by the Kansas State boys for their team. Nebraska. This program only had 64 pages and sold for a quarter. Just exactly four times as many pages for the same price, and not only four times as many pages, but the pages were even larger, approximately twice as large.
Thus the Kansas State boys are putting out or did put out a program with approximately eight times as much money as we get as we get when we buy the Gristler.
Now those in favor of our present hand-bill programs will point out the fine paper upon which they're printed, and the quality of the write-ups and the general tone of pictures and make up. Well, even such an unofficial observer as myself in comparing the Griderstater Kansas State souvenir program,ouled the paper was the same and that the Kansas State write-ups and pictures, etc.,were at least equal if not better than those of the Griderstater.
Now the local boy will bark about advertising; Either they don't want too much advertising, or else they can't get

it, and anyone can answer these wails.
If they don't want the advertising, why don't they, and if they would get it, they could get it if they would put out a larger, better program so that the purchaser would be willing to buy it without knowing that he was actually being robbed. Let's quit robbing the fans and give them at least a 15 cent program for their quarter.

PLAIN TALES from the HILL
Two Kappas were in deep thought "I can't do it," said one.
"It can't be done," announced the other.
"I got it," shouted the first, and she dashed for the 'phone.
"Hello, Joe, this is so and so. Say,
J-o-e-e, would you write my philosophy
of life for me?"
"If you haven't a date by 9 o'clock, you probably won't have one by 10 o'clock, so what is the advantage of the longer library hours?" asks one of our "socially-minded" freshmen.
The young man walked briskly, one arm heavy with books, and his other hand swinging a cane. In the midst of a deft manweaver of the stick, one of the books slipped and lay with its contents scattered on the sidewalk. He stopped and leaned over, attempting to grasp the book in the already loaded hand. The cane he kept tightly clutched in the other hand.
Failing, he stooped again, but as his hand neared the ground the other books began to slip. Still he held the stick. Finally in desolation he dropped all the books to the ground, piled them up, and by careful balancing managed to heave them to his arm again. With the cane still clutched in his right hand, he strode rapidly away. It is gratifying to be a law senior on a crisp October morning.
And that's the neck I do my necking on."

ternity house. A freshman was brushing his teeth in the bathroom when an active walked in, picked up a tooth brush from the window sill, and inquired as to its owner. On finding out no information, he decided to use the brush. The astonished pledge could only watch him in silence. After finishing the job, the active announced that he liked the tooth brush and believed he would keep it. He left the pledge open-mouthed, still ignorant of the fact that the upperclassman had left his brush there the day before.
A student in one of the education classes was considerably gipped the other day because he got up at 5:30 a.m. to study for a quiz which had been announced a few days before and then the professor did not give the examination. But good heavens! Isn't hat college?

"WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND"
... here's a friend, indeed!
Placed on the market a few months ago, this pipe mixture made many friends before it had a line of advertising.
Said one smoker to another: "Try a pipeful of this mellow mixture. I've paid much more for tobacco not nearly so good!" Aged in the wood for years . . . there's not a bite in a barrel of BRIGGS! But BRIGGS would much rather talk in your pipe than in print. Won't you try a tin and let it speak for itself?
BRIGGS Pipe Mixture is also sold in 1-pound and
÷ 5-pound tins . . . and in 1-pound Humidor Kegs.
