The national legalization of beer, even though Kansas as a state will remain dry, will present a problem that will call for a fine spirit of cooperation between students and the administration of the University of Kansas. There is no doubt that some students will go to Kansas City on week ends and at other times and drink. Whether the percentage of drinking students will increase is a debatable point, but for a while at least, there will probably be some student intemperance.
A SENSIBLE ATTITUDE ON DRINKING
Students who fling discretion to the winds and conduct themselves with reckless abandon will work irreparable damage to the University. On the other hand, the administration should be guided by tolerance and understanding. Deeming with this question calls for use of good common sense.
An extremely sensible statement on the question was issued recently by President Alexander G. Ruthven, of the University of Michigan. It might well serve as the basis for handling the situation at the University.
"The attitude of the University toward drinking and drunkenness has been consistent for many years, and new circumstances, will make no changes in it," President Ruthven said. "We have always expected each student to conduct himself so that he will bring no discredit to this institution. This applies to drunkenness as well as to any other unbecoming act."
"The fact that the government has made beer a legal beverage makes no change in this principle nor in its application toward the problem of student drinking. We still expect the students to behave themselves in a becoming manner and action toward offenders will be the same in the future as in the past.
"The withdrawal of the support of the law, however, puts the matter more squerely up to the students than before. They have always had a share in this responsibility, but it is now their alone."
ART TRIUMPHS
Is true art higher than the normal human emotions? This question can best be answered by referring to art students who paint nude models. The Syracuse University Orange conducted a survey on this subject recently and found that most students, after the first two or three experiences in painting nudes, found the portrayal of living models not different from that of still life.
Students here at the University who are enrolled in the life class or who have taken the course will doubtless agree with the students at Syracuse. That is, those who are actually interested in true art will have such an attitude. They realize that the human body is a marvelous object of nature and appreciate the importance of being able to portray it well. Most life classes, however, must be carefully selected by the instructors in order to retain only those students who seriously want to improve their art.
ALL-KNOWING ELDERS
During the past four years various wise men and groups of the intelligence have flung much advice to the youth who is in college or is about to enter college. The principal bit of wisdom has been, "Work or borrow money, stay in school at all cost."
Passing by the question of the real value of a college education let us consider only the very material problem of work and borrowing money.
Experience has proven that there are not nearly enough jobs to go around for all the students who would like to work all of their way or even part of their way. Then the only thing left for these to do who can not "guide the old man for four years at school" is to borrow
Very simple, borrow the money,
First, where? That is a problem that the advice givers have left unanswered. *Scholarships and student loan funds can not begin to take care of the demands that are being made on them. Benign capitalists are practically non-existent.*
The only other place that students may turn is to the hard headed business man. Immediately arises the question of interest. On this campus are a number of students who have borrowed money on as little as six per cent, and the sheep's nights that are spent in wondering where they will be able to earn the money to repay the loan before the interest payments have more than equalled the original amount are hardly worth the sacrifice.
In other words, the advice is good, but the means of following that advice is lacking. If these kind souls who have so easily solved the students' financial problem will only step forward with check book in hand and give a practical demonstration of the matter, they may be sure that the students stand ready to fall in line with their solution.
MEN ARE STILL SUPERIOR
Men have always been superior to women and naturally, they always will be. Woman was made from man's spare rib, and if she is intelligent it is due entirely to evolution. The trouble is that she is too emotional. Men aren't 'excellent when it comes to reading'
That is what we had always thought, but to our utter surprise we learn that men are lowbrows. Of course we've always had a sneaking notion, but when a psychology professor says so—well, that proves it.
College men, we discover, are reveling in "Snappy Stories," and "Deadwood Dick," while the fair coeds are going intellectual with Ibsen, Voltaire and L. Moneck
Professor Carroll, of the University of Minnesota, who is the author of the Carroll literary appreciation tests, says that a comparison of the scores made by the two sexes show clearly that women are superior in their ability to appreciate pure literature.
Perhaps that is why so many men in public life give speeches prepared by their wives.

Campus Opinion
Editor Daily Kansan;
I am disappointed to see the Kannan taking its cue from the Anti-Sabo League in the political campaign now under way. Could you explain to me why the term "squamish complexion, and the political blueses are engaged in such ardent moral exhortations? I am especially curious about the peculiar interpretation of the term "mud-aliming." I should not have said the nasty word.
Mud-slinging is only such when it can be characterized as leperous, or when it consists of libelous personal attacks. By no possible perversion of terminology can the Oread-Kayhawk platform be charged with either. The platform contains a dynamic and monotonic idea, one that can be adjective-based. It describes the language of a Harper's or American Mercury, and not in the vapid and pepleplain language of the average Kansun editor—C. P.
It seems to me that the Kasan itself is the best suited for this service. In a newspaper of a western Kansas town I noticed a "Barter Column" in which any persons with things to trade resembled a "want ad." The statements are limited to 25 words and there is on charge for this service except that the paper suggests that if money becomes involved in the exchange brought about by the service it is no longer than fair that the publication receive payments. The publication is the "Southwest Tribune" published at Liberal, Kan.
In an editor in a recent edition of the Kansas in the 'Barter for Students' day at Drake University was commented upon and approved. It was recommended that an organization on sponsor such service for the students.

He finds the volvans and a complete set of burglars' vaults and burglar's kill to the hotel room, and the volvans and burglar's kill to the hotel room. That night the safe in the room was blown open and locked, the date was blown open and locked, the date was blown open and locked, that his "black box" is in the room, that his "red box" is in the room, that his "teardown," with Markham, died.
CHAPTER III—BETTY, daughter of a caricature artist who loved Markham. Both he and Landa believe himself to be above suspicion, but to assure himself that the cost to let Betty's show. They call her a strange coward and drove home from the theater the previous night. Markham does not tell Landa what she was doing, and she have deliberately stolen the Invention from the evidence of an unthankable, but the evidence of a prove she was present at the time.

**CHAPTER XI—Returning, with Betta and Martha, with friends of Suckabank, Markham, Markham attempted to kidnap him. At the hotel man from Louisiana is registered, of whom 20 are living in London and Landau have more following, and Bette and Betta are seeking Landau. **CHAPTER XI—Seeking Landau, Markham is deceived into taking a ride to Paris, back to and both Betty and Landau
For perhaps five minutes after the sound of the footsteps of the retreatant reaches of the tunnel, the two men who were herring the way for Landa made no move and his impatient gaze slid down the maddening obsession. Then one got upon his feet and began where he had left off when the interruption had
"I'm telling you that the follow we backed up—the fellow that made that beetle attack me. Is it the one that turned h—I house on us a little white ago, and I make a teno-tee bet bete hiding in that old room now. Let's go back and get him."
Then to Landa came the thought of what they would find in the inclined chute—biting, waiting bewildered and distressed, moving backward and fell upon a miner's shovel, and with only this for a weapon he lagged and attached himself to the wall.
Fortunately for him the two men had their backs turned when he made his silent charge upon them, and before they heard him he had hit one a smashing blow over the head with the blade of the mince trumpet of the mince trumpet. But before he could swing the shovel a second time, the other man had whibbled, drawn his Cott and fired. It was merely a lucky chance that the heavy bullet struck the trumpet, flattened hardlessly against the trunnel wall, but the chance suffered. Before he could sequestre the trigger again, Landis was upon him, falling at him with the shovel, and with the maniness which makes the fighting amateur invisible.
Driven back by the furious attack, the man tried to cover his face. A chopping edge of the shovel made him fall on his back, and he was close with the mantle, but Landry lowered his climax weapon from cutting to thrusting and the sharp shingle of his blade to crush the enemy encency just above the helmet. He gave a grunt and bent double over the thrusting shovel, in falling he got his hands upon the lighter antagnant hook.
Dropping the shovel,兰朵 taorze fiercely at the gripping hands. Like grim death his opponent held on, strangling him with a knife. Savage stomach thrust had deprived him of. It came at last, and when it did,兰朵 knew that the fight was lost; the man had him down, while he ran up to the other hand for the dropped pistol.
Past this, Landis recollections were dim and confused. He remembered seeing the plunging upward for a blow through his chest when he couldn't tell how many; that he had finally got a hand free to clutch at the merciless club that was beating his head to a pulp, and that when he did, it was because of the roof of the tunnel had caved in.
Landis struggled from under an inert and heavy body. In the struggle for the possession of the clubbed pistol the weapon had been discharged and Landis was thrown through the hair of the clubber. With a grim determination not to give up until he had made a finished job of it, Landis rubbed the blood out of his eyes, rolled the wounded man over and behind him with his own pistol belt.
That done, he did the same for the other man, who had not yet recovered from the smashing blow given him at the beginning of the mattle battle.
There was one thing more to be done, and he did it. Taking the black box down from its shelf, he hid it in a bag. He also added a fragment of ore for a hammer, but battered at it until it was reduced to a shapeless ruin.
Before He Could Squeeze the Trigger Again, Landis Was Upon Him.

CHAPTER XIII
A Confession and a Temperature
A compassionate woman, who initially began to contemplate or things as they are, he found himself in bed. At first he had the impression that his head was incased in a metal helmet contrivance that was too small for him; but when he felt of the contrivance he found comfort in a room of surgical dressings and bandages.
"Like the morning after. What's the matter with my head?"
At his stirring, somebody tipped across the room to the bedside and he saw Willy bending over him and a little old boy! We were beginning to think you were never going to come back to us! How are you feeling?
"I did," said the Borerer, to whom recollection was slowly returning. Then, "Filt it out for me, Maddy. What happened?" and it happened. And is Darty all right?
"Oh, nothing much; just looked as if it had been run through a snusace and gone. You must have had the time of your young life with those two asses."
"She is, in the mine we found you and Betty, and, a little farther on, Mr. Jensen," she said, "a whale of a scrap with those two follow—both of them with guns and they were."
"Not bare-quote; I had a shovel to begin with. But never mind the scrap, Tell me what Candy and his gumsen were they made of, and why they had我 black box."
Beginning at the Hillcrest vault Markham run rapidly over the events of the Kildangan evening, the hooligans set fire to the house at the Stillings house and his return to the hotel in time to witness the attack. Cantrell and Martin from Louisville.
"The clerk had just told me that you'll been called over to Starbucks for a meeting, and then Starbucks wasn't in town, I went over to see for myself," I then he brieled the story of the bogus bookkeeper, and the resultant lawsuit. "When I waded up with wading up with 'You see, they'd got you and Betty out of the way, and they came within one of doing the same for me; did do it, for the time."
"But still you haven't told me the why." Landis complained.
"I coming to that. As I said, I was thrashing it out with Stillings in the backpack. Then I got Stillings, "Lord, I wish Starbusk were here," Cusinia Billy walked on in us. Then I did what we should have done, and left out, beginning with the theft of the black box. "Cunny's the man," he said; "he's so darn nice, she's on the wire and a poison sworn
"As we were about to pass the Little Alice, a man came running out to say that somebody was digging into the Alice vein from the south; that the Alice vein had been drilled as if they were only a few feet away. That settled it, and winneth in the next half hour everybody connected with the Quivvaville was under attack. The places she had weakened and told us that you and Betty were shut up in the old working. At this, the posses spill; half of it going into the old mine to look for you two, and the other half possessed of the new workings."
"You found out the 'why' then?"
"Then the three men in the Fleet-
wing were his accomplices all the
way through."
"You found out the 'why' then?"
"Yes, we found out what Caiboo and Caleb did in the Quavian; there hadn't been from the beginning. But Candie was stuck, himself, and he framed it to stick some corner of her face. She turned a tunnel all the way through the mountain to tap the real stuff in the Alice. When the robber rubbed got so near the door, she fell asleep blasting be heard in the Alice, he was stamped until he happened to hear of your invention through one of your gang members who had spied upon you
"Yes. It turns out that he is the secret head—and brains-of a criminal organization that is almost national magnetes on the string and they agree to buy the Quavant if it proved to be as he represented it. The tennants of the Quavant had a lot of money, and Canly had put everything he had into it. If he could make the turn and sell the money he was given in millions, or more. But more money was needed, so he turned the black box over to his three yeggnemen and tried to find a way to the way of ready cash on their way out. And it was one of his little refinements of morality to have them carry magnates on the string and magnetic on the western trip."
"It worked," said Landis.
"Yes, until we butted in. When the three found out we were on their trail, they yelled for help, and Canyb jumped in to try and talk us until the black box had embled the mines to get well into the Alice vein and the three had been hooded. After that, Canyb could snap his fingers at all of us."
Lands made no comment for a minute or so. But after a little pause he handed her a flower and a horrible ending to her little romance." Then, "It was Cunybe who stole my box, of course. But who was there? And helped him? Has she been traced?"
"I don't think the woman will ever be found. But we can afford to let her nurse us now and send the nurses in. You've long enough excitement for one day."
