THE LAST WORD
The time has come to lend thine ears to "Au Revoir."
This is the last editorial that this editor will write for the University Daily Kansan. Looking back over this rather hectic period, it appears to us that our term as editor-in-chief of this illustrious sheet has brought us much to be remembered. During this short period of service we have laughed and cried, stormed and raged, cursed and sworn, and surely time will prove that such experiences will not have been in vain.
It is not without a measure of regret that we leave office. We tender a fond razberry to our pals on the staff of The Kansas State Collegian at Manhattan. Also, we leave our moral support to the new editor in the hope that he can devise some way of making the W.S.G.A. legalize baths for the girls after 11 o'clock at night.
While circumstances have made it impossible for this editor to assail some actions and institutions, apparently screening for criticism, it is not because he hasn't tried. But Robert Burns said something once about the best laid plans of mice and men often going wrong, and just for that he got a cigar named after him. So we live in hope. Perhaps some day that long-awaited "good" nickel cigar will bear our name.
To you who have taken time to read this page, and you who have helped write it, we praier our earnest thanks in the hope that in some small way you have been recompensed. Meanwhile we live in hopeful expectation of graduation. And believe it or not, we're glad that's all just about over.

Last year, the longest theater run in history came to a close. It was, indeed, a half run as long as American history itself. For the first time since its premier in 1853, there is not now a single company anywhere playing "Ucle Tom's Cabin," according to a report in the Theater Guild magazine.
THE LONGEST RUN
Its run has been as wide as it was long. It was not confined to New York nor to a half a dozen big cities, nor even to the road as it was thought of at that time. It was played in town halls, under canvas, and in empty rooms over hardware stores. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" represented the theater all across the American continent for three generations.
The five year run of "Abie's Irish Rose" was assumed to have established a record. But "Uncle Tom's Cabin," with its characters of Topsy and Little Eva, has beat that record by just 72 years.
The acting was what a metropolitan audience and a dramatic critic would call "bad." But there were real parts, nevertheless! It was a real play—a story of a race n bondage.
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" was not only our most successful American play. It was an American institution. Its day is done; if the play is revived, it will be a curiosity. But no one can revise Topsy as she has been in days past. We must pay the price for our sophisication.
HISTORY NOT ALWAYS A GHOST
House by house the city of Saratoga, Kansas, vanished, until only an old church and school building remained. Now the last mark of a once thriving city is gone with the tearing down of the old brick schoolhouse, near Pratt. Saratoga once boasted 3000 inhabitants and made a strong contest in a county sect fight. The old inhabitants have not forgotten that once this trading point sheltered hundreds of sheep and that its water mill was a mecca for the farmers for many years.
The new replaces the old, but the ghost of history comes back sometimes. The automobile replaced the horse and buggy. But sometimes a team is called to pull a car out of the ditch or clear up the wreckage. Garages have replaced blacksmith shops, but you pay for your service.
According to the student hospital and dispensary staff, between seventy and eighty students have been calling daily for cold treatment during the past few days. That is a quite considerable number, and with the shorter sleeping hours of final examination time and its resultant lessening of resistance to colds, there may be a far more widespread epidemic of this menace.
Doctors will not administer canned milk for ills for sometime yet, and most women will continue to eat three meals a day.
An article in Scribner's says that the "jazz age" is over, but to some it has never yet come. Some of the old traditions may never die—just as grandmother's broth cures a cold quicker than the pink pills from the doctor's cabinet.
Much of the spread of nose and throat colds could be avoided if those who have them would use the intelligence which college students and faculty members should have. Why do so many have to cough and sneeze without covering their mouths and noses?
A doctor once said that an intelligent tuberculous person was of far less danger to those about him than an unthinking one suffering from a common cold. The tuberculous person knows how, by

University of Texas Plans Expansion:
8 New Buildings Will Cost $4,000,000
Austin Tex., Jan. 21-(UP) The University of Texas, established in a cow-pasture in 1883, will begin its greatest expansion program Jan. 28, when contracts are let for eight new buildings coating about 15,000 square feet on the third congress of the Texas Republic set up 50 leagues of land to provide for a "university of the first class." The University opened 44 years later in the midst of brick, mortar and lumber of an unrestrained campus with an enrollment of 218 students.
The University now is valued at $4,000,000 and has an enrollment of buildings costing about $4,000,000. building program to be initiated Jan 20, the university will be the outstanding institution of the South in physical education.
Valued at $40,000,000
For years its growth was delayed by adverse attitudes. In 1832, however, the hopes of Texas pioneers for a "university of the first class" will be re-
preventing the escape of the spray that spreads his malady, to prevent infection of others. Colds are spread in the same fashion, and their spread should be hindered in the same manner.
If these who come to classes and examinations with colds and do nothing to prevent spreading them are as inconsiderate of others as that, they should be asked to leave.
A man recently returned from California had some rather depressing news for prospective human who are planning a trip to the "golden state" in the near future. The city of Los Angeles, in an attempt to curb the indus of warmth in the city, is considering mand that every transient must have at least fifty dollars before he can enter the city.
All southbound gentry of the road are also being closely watched, and gently but firmly asked to move on if their finances not appear to be large enough to enable them to support themselves.
While it is true that most cities in the United States are making some attempt to deal with the problem of the transient in this time of depression, it is equally true that there must be some limit at which generosity should cause Indiscriminate and illogical feeding of the crowds. The west to escape the rigors of the winter, would result in virtual bankruptcy to the givers of the food and shelter.
An epidemic of colds at the University is a serious matter.
It seems that the poor hum, unless he be already firmly enforced in a warm county jail, will have a tough winter in sunny Cali. "Go West, young man," seems to me rather a rattle gesture.

Once in every decade of a century, one finds in the generation that is just referred to as the "ynguerin," a certain type of youth which is looked upon as a representative of that age, and as a representative of the period 1920 to 1997.

In the 1900s the popular version of the “strictly modern” young woman was the Glaison girl with her *worship of crowning glory* and her *sweet and kind heart*. Her wit, intelligence, waited, business-like person who was the bucker of women’s rights and suffrages. In the ten years that followed she became a fierce opponent — or perhaps it only secures so because of its recency. From out of the yards slashed from skirts and bunbels of tresses that fit the floor from her waist to her head, she made her debut. The World War II high cost of living—everything was blamed for producing such a creature as the Glaison girl—left chateau to hell were wrieve and accepted by some, but the indulgence made her thrive and her popularity roared skewward until people used to
In 1930 the flapper dick and Miss America went feminine, deciding apparently to capitulate her sex. What she was going to do, I believe, bring forth cannot be told. We are emerging from the period of economic reindustrialization that followed the war—when we were forced to wear the slapshirt to be 'Back to the Gibson girl' of the navy decade, or will Silly Jones don pants anduff a cairn—a man of color who should not be silly Natalie will find a needier.
It is still said by many that the world’s youth is en route to pedition. We’re excused by others who say it’s not here we’ve arrived, for this depression is it.

The student who goes to college with every purpose of fitting himself for a life care often finds himself a graduate in a school with no university head so which no many university heads feel necessary in training the majority of students, has left him prepared and unable to prepare.
With no one to drive him, the youth who starts out to set the world alarms and start the flame. It takes a college graduate of more than ordinary merit to step into a good position today. Many are students from a school by remaining out of school a year or two before finishing. Those who have ideas of what they should accomplish.
Too many people are in college just to be able to say they have been there. They don't want to believe before that of codling would double the time spent studying, while diatribally reducing the budgets.

Here we are—literally covered up with the finest stock of suits and overcoats we ever had. It's a case of having over-estimated our needs when we gave our orders for fall. You see, these suits and overcoats were so outstandingly fine and attractive that we just couldn't help buying them in large quantities. So here we are—heavily overloaded with suits and overcoats which we must dispose of at exceptionally drastic reductions.
