WHAT DO WE LEARN?
Some seventy years ago our grandfathers established here in Lawrence the University of Kansas for the benefit of those who wished to benefit by a higher education. During all those years people have flocked here to learn what the faculty and text books had in store for them. Now comes the question of what we learn in an institution of higher learning.
When we have completed four years of requirements and electives and are about to receive our degrees, what kind of education have we? Is it merely an accumulation of cut and dried facts handed out over the teacher's desk or dug from reference books in the library. Have we merely memorized the fact that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the two sides? Or that Caesar was assassinated 44 B.C., or Louis XIV died in 1715? Can we look through a stack of note books and find our entire education?
What does it matter if we have forgotten all of these things, so long as we know how and where to find them when we want them? The purpose of the University should be to teach men and women how to form habits of work, how to co-operate with fellow workers, and how to take advantage of our own capacities. If we learn these things, and the majority no doubt do, it has been worth our while to spend four years in the University, even though we do carry our "book learning" around in note books.

CAUGHT SHORT
This depression certainly is ex asperating. It works in circles and one can't figure or plan anything without going around and around and getting back to the same place he started.
For instance, we have always wanted to go to Europe and the steamship companies say now is the time to go. We could go for 20 per cent less than a few years ago. Just think of it, for 80 percent we can now take a trip that used to cost 100 per cent. A few years ago we had the 80 per cent, but not quite the 100, but now we haven't even the 20 per cent that the steamship companies have discarded.
Yes sir, this depression is exasperating. When we have a little money the cost of a trip to Europe is still too high, and by the time a depression has lowered the cost it has also eaten up most of our "little money."
But sometime we will slip up on Old Man Depression from behind and give him a Bronx Cheer as he sail away for Europe with a can of hoarded money just dug up from the backyard.
We notice that another Russian count is counting his days in the Ellis island store hours for aliens.
The last of the Pan-Hellenic exchange dinners for this year has been held. Each sorority has sent out its pledges to represent it for the final time. Next year a new group will assume the duties of pledgeship.
EXCHANGE DINNERS
These exchange dinners, which are held each semester, are a gesture of cordiality and democracy. Corbin and Watkins halls are included, if their women desire. The pledges and new initiatives learn something about other houses and groups. An entirely different atmosphere from that which permeated rush week is found at the dimers. Through this medium the pledges have a chance to see things as they really are, and not as imagination has sometimes fondly pictured them.
Members of all the houses outside themselves to make a desirable impression, but this time there is a sincere effort to be equally pleasant to all. There is no rush and scramble to see who can pledge whom. Instead, each house is struggling to be as hospitable as possible, and to come to know as many other women as possible.
The real thing is that they learn expect and friendship for all the their organizations.
At the Play
By Elliott Penner
Well, the Romans thought about the same things that we do!
With no Eugene O'Neill psychology to apply to the question, Pluton spread the same stuff two thousand years ago and introduced a new band and wives fighting, alien women tsk, tsk, and slapstick elbowing (it still goes over bin-) as evidenced by the revival of "Momenchino" in Fauzer theater had night by the Karsaus Play.
The story, which a gentleman named Shakespeare considered good enough to make an excursion into himself, centers about the mistaken identity of the twin brothers, Burt and Jim. One of the twins is married, and it is when he goes trapping off to the lady who lives on the corner (Flores Jewent Worthen) with a mantle that belongs to Professor Francis Wilson), that the trouble begins.
Presented from a book which contains little or no stage directions, and the characters are so far as its remaining cast translators are concerned, the players were confronted with the problem of building up stage business (action) about the
George Cullahan in the role of a parasite and Frances Wilson, as the wife were highly entertaining to the audience. And when B. F. Teqarden came out as a cook with a stomach that it forgot have ski jumped from, it forgot about wanting anything more from the theater than entertainment.
Showing us how a master of ceremonies would appear in a toga. Robert Calderwood presented the prologue involving by many a gesture and mimics.
Jack Feit played the part of another parasite, or slave, and was adept at sarcinating vernum that the rest of his characterization was forgotten. Mary Bentley, a daughter of her adductive moment was quite as effective as was her mistress, as the lady on the corner. Loren Kennedy as a doctor was distinguished chiefly by a huge wart on his nose. Kennedy has a successful stage appearance, but he held his shoes off the floor. Successing more because of their appearance than because of acting ability, the Hammers brothers were perhaps somewhat handicapped by appearing in a cast composed almost wholly of persons whose main interpersonal relationship particularly weak scene was that in which the two brothers greeted each other, but in the scenes with the lady on the corner, each acquitted himself quite well. Allen Crafton saved the scene in which he was pursued by the paradoxe-inimune Moniancino *Societies*, who was a professor at Johns Hopkins *at Jim Hammers*'s vigorous fit.
Considering the play for what it was, a modern slap-stick version of an old Roman comedy patterned after Greek tragedies. The actor's part-player is a "dwarfed good sir."
.
As a帘 raising, the Kansas Players also presented a play by a University student, Maurice Baring. "The Younge Generation—A D., 50; kingly stingingly insulting," he wrote in the Role of a Roman father破 because his son was a gladiator. The play is a clever natire of the "younge generation" problem. Clever acting was also displayed by Mar捷 Hatuget, Betty Ice, Jean Arnaud and Tom Thumb. The latter seemed somewhat too favorably aware of himself on the stage.

GIVES ME
SEE those "blubs" coming out of the men's
sleeves? Can you write one ? We're putting up $2,500 in cash for those who can.
Get your pencil out—now!
Here's the idea. In a field of 176 competing brands, Colgate's and Palmolive are the two outstanding leaders. They have won an overwhelming preference over all other shaving creams.
We know that Palmolive users sweat there's nothing as good as Palmolive. And Colgate shavers claim that Colgate's beats 'em all in a walk.
What we want is your opinion. Do you side with Jim or his Dad in the big Palmolive vs. Colgate's argument? Are you a Colgate fan or a Palmolive booster. Let's hear from you!
IN ONE of the empty "blurb" spaces, or on a separate sheet of paper, just say your say. In your own wordpaper, write yourboost for Colgate's —or for Palmolive— not both. 464 cush prizes each month for the best "blubs" to send us!
Here's where you take your shot at some of that $25,000
Jim wants you Palmulize users to back him up. His Dad warns you Colgate's shale water. You haven't tried either of these famous shaving creams, 24hr new and get into this $2,000 argument.
In event of a tie, each tying contestant will be awarded full
