OH. DOCTOR!
The director of the student health service voices his belief that influenza often is communicated by contact of the hands and mouth, and intimates his belief that such contact should be eschewed.
But the doctor evidently does not realize the seriousness of his proclamation. Think of the dire results that would be the aftermath of such a ban! Oh! doctor, you have no idea.
To begin with, think how hard a time the boys and girls in fraternity and sorority houses would have. Just think of having to go for days without being able to give a brother or sister in the bond the good ol' grip of the brotherhood! And too, think of the interfraternity results of such a ban—dates just have to hold hands!
And such a move would go hard with international amity. For with the discard of the handshake would go the "hands across the border" idea. The members of the underworld are heartily in opposition to the plan. With hands in disuse, what "would become of their command of "Hands up?" Gone would be the sense of the song, "Hand Me Down My Walking Cane." And what of "Handle With Care" and "Hands Off?"
Just about the only person we've seen who is in favor of such a move is the younger brother, who thinks that if hands weren't thought of so much, he wouldn't have to wash his so often.
And that no contact of the mouth idea is absolutely out of the question, doctor. No one would tolerate such an interdict, Aunt Minnie for instance. The greatest pleasure she gets out of frequent trips she makes, is in kissing everybody good-bye at the station. And with the passing of osculation, would go the movie heroes, Shades of Clark Gable, John Barrymore, and Jack Gilbert—may such a thing never to pass!
No indeed, your suggestoin will go unheeded, doctor, like most other advice of you men of the little black satchel and the shiny instruments. Just ask any collegian what he thinks of your proposal!
Again James A. Bausch receives another award for his athletic prowess. It certainly is unfortunate that some of these medals, cups and other trophies do not have a resale value that is comparative with their original costs.
ARMY CAMPS FOR THE UNEMPLOYED
The use of army camps by the unemployed is an interesting suggestion offered by Senator Couzens in dealing with the evergrowing numbers of idle men. It has been noticed that young men, between the ages of 17 and 25, are found to make up the ranks of the aimless, wandering army of job seekers.
The railroads have encouraged the wanderings of these young men by allowing them to ride in
empty freight cars unmolested by the train crew. Social agencies and kind hearted citizens have provided food for them in towns where they wished to stop.
summarize, summarize, summarize that the unemployed be allowed to enter or leave ar. camps a their own discretion is a little faulty at this point. It is the belief of many that the rigid discipline of army life would not appeal to the young wanderers and that they would find excuses for leaving at an early date. There is no doubt that army life would be of great benefit to them, but the problem of keeping them in camp would soon present itself. A solution to this phase of the problem might be found in the requirement that every entrant to an army camp be forced to stay at least three months. Social agencies and citizens throughout the country such would, no doubt, welcome such an arrangement.
The meeting of the debt obligations by the foreign powers would be equivalent to a reasonable down payment on the purchase of the country under the present economic conditions.
THE TERM PAPER RUSH
With the Christmas holidays over the student faces the regular semester-end grind. The library will be filled with students feverishly pouring over reference books in an effort to get material together for some long-winded term paper.
The student is not altogether to blame for this term-end rush The responsibility may be locate in two places. There are the students who have been assigned term papers due at the end of the year some time early in the semester, but who have just put it off. Then there is the instructor
who waits until finals are a short time off and gives a term paper assignment which when completed should look like the manuscript for a text book.
For the student who puts off the assignment there can be no sympathy, but to the one who has had several instructors give these last minute assignments goes all the sympathy in the world. These papers count heavily on the final grade, and it is a generally known fact that many professors forget the fact that the student is taking courses other than the ones they are teaching.
We earnestly hope that the joker is not included in the new deal and Thurston is not appointed to a cabinet position.
AN EIGHT-CENT MEAL
The Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York City advertised and served an eight-cent meal for demonstration recently, consisting of steak with gravy, potatoes, turnips and bread and butter, preceded by a tomato cocktail and rounded out by butter-scotch pudding. That means just $1.68 a person for a week's meals. The New York Times emphasizes the fact that now a family of five can live on $8.88 a week.
So now if the fraternity tax law is passed and goes into effect we have a new proposition for the Greeks. Just bring the family and come to college. Think of the pleasure of home cooking and a "hey nonny nonny and a hotchacha" time combined (or could they be). All-in-all, the $8.88 a week plan sounds pretty good. We wonder how it happens, though, that President Hoover didn't think first of having some committee work this out. It would have sounded much more impressive and would have made a nice finale for his administration.
The current movies are doing their part in bringing about repeal by whetting the public thirst.
With an influenza epidemic sweeping the entire nation and between 70,000 and 90,000 cases in Kansas alone, it is to the best interests of all citizens and particularly office workers and stu-

lents to watch their health. A recent survey shows that those who work indoors are seven times more susceptible to colds than axicab drivers and others who work in the fresh air. For this season students should guard against colds and see a doctor whenever they are not feeling where in particular to go, and is in no special hurry to get there. They amar尔ong, laughing and talking, and the student who comes up from behind, hurrying to a class or to an appointment, is forced to make a wide detour around them. It isn't so bad—the grass sora feels good underfoot—except when a rain or snow has made the turf a bit soggy.
Students at the University have an especially good opportunity to care for their health, for the new hospital has excellent facilities for the treatment and care of those who are not feeling up to par. A staff of competent attendants, headed by Dr. Canuteson, is ready to care for fills and ailments which students may be so unfortunate as to contract. For the safety of fellow students anyone suffering from a cold or other contagious disease should visit the hospital at once.
The Campus Pest
--of the congregation did the rest, then ate a hearty dinner prepared by the women-folk.
Those groups of students who lock arms and, three or four abreast, walk down the sidewalks of the campus, causers of injury out of their way are a real campus pest.
They seem to think that no one besides themselves has any right of way, in fact, they evidently consider it a sort of leepee and so they may not walk the path. The person who insists on his share of the sidewalk is favored with frowns of disapproval, and the burning glances he receives who is so careless as them to unoblige arms are a sight to behold.
This type never seems to have any-
It all goes to show how quickly the lessons of childhood are forgotten. For it would be safe to assume that all such events have been chanted in their younger days.
"Two's company, Three's a crowd,
Four on the sidewalks, Not allowed."
