ON YOUR MARK!
Tomorrow school starts. It will be a momentous occasion for many a freshman who will be spending his first day as a student in a great university. For the first time, it will be just the beginning of another year and for the seniors it will be the beginning of the end.
As yet the brows of students are unfurred by worry over assignments and other problems of school life. Gayly they swing along the campus and lounge on porches and terraces enjoying the glorious freedom of nothing-to-do Hill and downtown hangouts are with patrons of former years busily about summer vacations, the dazzling of rush week, and a thousand and a thousand other things. The opening verses last night, the free mixer tonight and the Chancellor's reception Saturday night are all glowing spots in a bright week.
Some staid old fogies may not approve of the air of flirvity, but we chime in with Robert Herrick when he says:
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a flying,
And this same flower that smiles
today Tomorrow will be dying.
HIGHER LIVING COSTS FOR THE STUDENT
Probably one of the first things students noticed upon returning to Lawrence after a summer spent at home was the increase in living costs. And to the student who has the same or a lower allowance than last year this condition is cause for real dismay, for it will mean skimming more than ever in order to get an education.
It is true that the National Recovery Act is helping thousands, even millions, of people employed in business and industry, but it certainly creates a handicap for the salaried man who has lately received a pay cut, such as the college instructor and the government employee.
Meals have gone up generally from 25c to 35c. The price of rooms has risen somewhat, although a student can still find a place to stay for a reasonable sum. Haircuts were 25c when students last left spring; now they are 40c. Laundry and cleaning have gone up, and so have clothes and numerous other items which figure prominently in the student's budget.
THIS BLANKET
CODE BUSINESS
It really should be brought to the attention of President Roosevelt. It is so flagrantly in violation of his NRA program that we sometimes wonder that General Hugh S. Johnson can sit back so complacently and do nothing about it. But then perhaps that harassed individual, deviled to distraction by business men, just hasn't got around to it. Or perhaps there has been no pressure exerted. If not, maybe this will start the ball rolling.
It's just this. Every piddling proprietor from Podunk Pond to Peanut Prairie, every mercury manufacturer from Minnetonka to Middle Forks has a code and flies the Blue Eagle. But callously and deliberately, one class of the great American public has been excluded from the sheltering arms of the bird. And we, as a represser,
tative of that great group, demand recognition for ourselves. That maligned group, coldly barred body of America, is the student body of America.
While the rest of the citizenry flaunts the Blue Eagle and proudly lets the world know they are doing their bit, the students of America, denied any NRA recognition, must sit shame-facedly on their respective campuses and do not show to their public-spirited counterparts that they obtain consumers co-operation certificates and thus do their part, but that is not the point. They want a code of their own.
But what, some hard-hearted generalisatio n of the NRMA may ask, does the student do. What code would he come under? That presents no problem at all. Any student, asked that impertinent question, will be quick to answer—that of the apple industry. For it is a well-known fact among the bigwigs in the apple line that students excel in a phase of that industry, namely, apple-polishing.
But at that, this outburst is needleless, for the students of America had the idem of the NRA and were practicing some of its dietates long before the fertile brains of the brain trust ever brought the plan before the American public. For every fraternity brother and every cautious sorority lass who ever made a picnic date always drew up a blanket code before they started out.
ADVICE TO FRESHMEN
Young men and young women,
you are on the threshold . . .
But what is the use? Few fresh-
men will read this and those who
do will not be guided by its teach-
ing.
Advice is one of these things "more pleasant to give than to receive." Especially is this true of the "stud-hard and keep-up-with-your-work" brand of sermonizing The trouble with most advice given to freshmen and upperclassmen too, for that matter—that it is usually true—all too true. That is what makes it so hard to take, and why one naturally rebels against it.
Now here are some hints from one who has been through the mill. They are easy little things to remember, painless, and get results. First of all, remember the procedure only human. This may be difficult to bear in mind at times, but it has been positively proven so a few looked examples to the contrary are not likely to carry much weight. Therefore regard him as a human being.
Next in importance to a proper attitude toward the professor, is the knack of getting along with one's fellow students. This may appear a needless precaution, but there are times when "a friend in need..."
Here are some "don'ts" if you would be popular with your fellow students. Don't make a too obvious play for the professor's approval. Don't have too much money. Don't have a too handsome wardrobe. Don't hesitate to put out a few cigarettes, cokes, movie tickets, and car rides.
Your college career will be much more pleasant if you learn to get along with the people you live with and those you contact daily. Following the few suggestions given above will help a great deal.

A CREATURE OF THE MAD TWENTIES
Roland Finney seem out of place in these sombre and solemn thirties. He belongs to the mid twenties, or the decade of insult and Mitchell and the other societies whose gyrations were sympathetic to the wild chill for speculated profits.
For a decade the country went on a bat, a monetary binge, a speculative debauchy. Tacitly encouraged by the government, which saw, or did it saw, prosperity that would never end in a fury of speculation. Bright lists them up and again newer ideas for getting rich quick. Financial set-ups of
the most complex nature, all with the purpose of involving investors, were invented in the innermen minds of men who built fine homes, and drew them cars, and bought imported liquor from hibiscus bootleggers, and smoked 50-cent cigars, were the American personals, whose superpowers that Finney-perhaps not naught. But they not by because they were playing a rising tide. Some of them, smart enough to see that they could be very entertaining, got out in 1929 and escaped personal damage. Others became hypnotized by their own success, and built for themselves penthouses in their own backyards, and tumbled. Such for instance, as Inuit.
Perhaps Finney was operating in a more way in those fascinating days. The midstonatch of the Midstonatch some of their methods, and then improve on them with a few
