MEMORIAL DAY
Tomorrow is Memorial Day, the day of remembrances.
Thousands of persons in every state in the Union will make their annual pilgrimage to lay flowers on the graves of those who have gone before.
Far away in France are rows of white crosses which loving friends will not be able to visit. They mark the graves of men who gave their lives that the world might live in peace and happiness. Today, economic conditions and ill feeling caused by the Great War in which they engaged are threatening international peace and causing untold misery and hardship upon the peoples of the globe.
NO FUNERAL
The world should grieve that on this Memorial Day, there cannot be presented to these brave souls not wreathes, not bouquets, not gun salutes, but that prize for which they strived so valiantly world peace and happiness.
Many of the seniors will not be able to get work immediately after graduation, but they are not discouraged. Perhaps they are fortunate in being graduated when times are hard; for adverse conditions temper and strengthen real men. Surely graduation is not going to be a funeral for any senior.
After spending four years on Mount Oread, the seniors are leaving. The years have been busy ones, and in the main they have been enjoyable. There are some things the departing seniors have done which they now regret, but they would very likely do the same things in the same way, if they had them to do over anur
MILK INSPECTION
When a public community begins to economize, it begins in the queerest, most illogical places. First the appropriations for schools are reduced. Then the expenditures necessary to maintain the public health are lowered.
The position of milk inspector, now held by H. L. Burger, will be abolished June 1, by the city of Lawrence. Milk inspection is next to water inspection in being one of the important necessities of city life. The citizens' committee, which seems to be making headway in the Lawrence milk situation, deserves support for its stand. Children, and university students, are the greatest assets which a community possesses. Their health should not be jeopardized by impure milk.
FAREWELLS
Finals are nearly over; school is nearly out. Another year has passed and we have gained added knowledge, supposedly. But whether or not, we have learned anything practical or theoretically, it has been a grand year, hasn't it?
The opening days of school football games, Homecoming Thanksgiving, Christmas, basket
ball, parties, the Junior Prom. Easter and so on through the year till the final exams. And even the finals hold some memories for the seniors, for this is the last time that they will be embarrassed by the instructors.
This is the saddest part of the school year. We have made many friends and acquaintances. They will separate and scatter to the far corners of the world. We may see them again some time next year, or it may be twenty years, or it may be never. There is a bit of remorse in our hearts as we muse over the years of our academic lives and then come suddenly to the realization that it is all over.
It will be with a cheerful "good-bye" but with a sick smile that we take our leave from our friends and from our alma mater. It isn't as easy as we supposed. After all, there is more to college than just dutty books and old vine-covered buildings.
And as we gaze at Mount Oread through the half-dimmed eyes of a soon-to-be alumnus, a strange sensation comes over us. The campus and the buildings become dearer, and they hold many memories that we had completely forgotten. Even the instructors were human, as we view them from this distance.
ADIEU
A fine-looking gray-haired old man sat in room 206 Fraser hall, and told his last Greek class goodbye. Having taught at the University of Kansas for the past fifty years, the Board of Regents have now retired him from active service.
Fingering his little Greek testament, and gaving out the window over the surrounding green-clad Kansas valley, Professor M. W. Steeling looked back over his fifty years of teaching at the University—years marked by diligent teaching, achievement, and integrity of purpose. He told the students of his boyhood on a Kansas homestead, his first dreams of the University, and finally, his subsequent arrival. Having shown exceptional ability to grasp the Greek and Latin languages while only a sophomore, he was chosen to assist in instructing these languages. That marked the beginning of one of the longest teaching careers in the history of the University.
Now Professor Sterling is saying goodbye. His little Greek testament will rest on the shelf holding memories of a man who taught youth for half a century. Long after the Professor has left the halls in which he labored assiduously, men and women will continue to revere and respect him and remember his teachings.
CONGRATULATIONS CITY
When you had the tank constructed the air hammers kept us from studying for our examinations. Now that another school year is over you have decided to paint the thing, the rust, which has been partially concealed by some cedar trees will at last be hidden completely by a coat of paint.
Congratulations, city commissioners—you have at last decided to paint the ugly water tank that has been hurting our eyes for the past nine months.
NOCTURNAL OIL
But there is one thing that we do not understand. Why didn't you paint the tank when it was new and before it was rusty?
Midnight oil may have a good effect on the system just like cast oil, but it is hard to take. The taking is sometimes more harmful to the system than the results are helpful. One loses a lot of sleep and comes to the examination groggy and with all information in a garbled condition.

COMMENCEMENT BAND:
Members of the Band who will play at Commencement are to rehearse Saturday, June 4, at 2 p.m. in the auditorium. J. C. MCEANLIS, Director.
We have been burning the "midnight oil." In our estimation it is a big pain in the neck. All examinations and things pertaining to final examinations are pains in the upper vertebra. We spent a full semester wrestling with a certain course. We spent our week-ends in the library doing outside reading instead of having dates. We spent a full night cramming. Then the instructor "mowed us down" with questions we didn't know.

DEE I. R. CANTESON.
MEN'S GLEE CLUB:
This would be the perfect way to close the school year. If the instructor decided that you deserved a grade, all well and good; if not, the result is the same as that of a bad final.
A man student says he wishes here was a women's R. O. T. C. in the Hill so he could run for ionorny colonel.
GREAT ODDS
Why not make the present period of final examinations a social get-together? A student could meet the instructor personally, probably for the first time in his life, a few bottles of ginger ale could be opened and a good time had by all.
Many seniors have placed beds of fifteen to fifty cents, in the form of invitations, that their friends, relatives, and enemies would break down with a graduation gift. It is the customary procedure. But why not cut the cost of invitations?
A penny post card would carry the message to the world at large that Pericul Popover is being graduated. Decorate the card with a Jawhawk wearing mortar board and barrel to arouse the generosity of the receiver.
The message? 'Something like this: P. Popover, four year expense account of Mr. and Mrs Popover of Fourcorners, Kansas aided by uncles, aunts, cousins nephews, patient faculty members, and big-hearted fellow students, will be graduated from the University June 7. Anything in the form of gifts, cash preferred, will be appreciated. Come if you want to, the stadium seats 50,000.
A stands for apple polish
Undoubtedly an invitation such as that would win the heart of the recipient. Candid, straight to the point, free from frills and fancy work, it would make an irresistible appeal.
