SENTENCING YOUTH
The conviction and sentence of Hubert Nichols, of Acoin, Wash. charged with slaying a 72-year-old sheriff, presents several questions for sociological study.
Individual responsibility as such an age is debated by the best psychologists, and it is incredible that society should demand such severe punishment for a child.
Until a boy has reached the age of twelve he is chiefly influenced by his home training, his playmates, and his surroundings, because he has not yet attained the faculty of associating many things between himself and the outside world.
This boy has been sentenced for life to the state penitentiary, where he will have little opportunity to change his ideas. Should he be placed in some state institution which is better prepared for reform, he might be given a chance to start over and make the most of it. After all, he is only a boy, and not a professional criminal.
HOME
W weren't Edgert Eduger who once said "an" it takes a heap of 'o Ivain in a place to make it home"? Do you suppose he could have been thinking of a University when he said that?
Four years at the University do make it home; not home as it corresponds to parental ties, but home in all that word has come to mean in us otherwise—friends, interests, desires, hates, loves, and striving.
Yes sir, it does "take a heap o' liven," four years of living, crowded into which are the experiences of a lifetime. You have to live hard and fact to get that "heap o' liven," but after it's all over and the diploma is handed to you—won't you be proud to call the old place home?
And we'll touch for the fact,
just as hundreds of alumni will vouch for it, that when the years have rolled back, leaving you rooted to another' spot you call home, you'll still look back on the years spent on Mt. Oread with something more than the desire for the carefree days of youth.
GOING WILD
Many students believe that when they come to college it's the time to "go wild." They pull all sorts of capers, they keep their rooms looking like bedlam; they pride themselves on carelessness of grammar and on the up to the minute "crack" remarks they have cultivated. They fully believe they are making a grand success with their fellow men. How disappointed they would be if they knew what their elders really think! For it's just another cropping out of extreme youth to be outgrown like roppers and the measles.
Some students must think they are understudy for Will Rogers or Rudie Valley, by the way they act. It is a shame that Hollywood
is so overcrowded with excellent talent, for the University certainly could supply them with some "hot numbers."
The best way to do away with the rah-rah type is he give him a look in the mirror. After all, what's clever about him? "Oh Yeah?" "Bolony!" He isn't being the least bit original, for bolony comes from the butcher shop, and 'yash from Sweden.
Is it any wonder students are criticized? Think how we must appear to the outsider. About the only time we attempt to use good English is in a rhetoric theme, and by that time we are out of practice that our feeble efforts fail.
For a change, why not show the world we can be ladies and gentlemen outside of books?
ENDEAVOR
He was only a little fellow, but his size belied the power of his voice. On his homely phiz was an expression of pure joy. With quite evident abandon he held his wares up toward the passer by, flaunting their bright colors with a seemingly uncanny knowledge of the selling power of display.
"S'aturday Evenin' Post," he piped, above the din of the hurrying multitude. "S'aturday Evenin' Post!" Five cents apiece; thalf of a dime; the fourth of twenty cents; thu eight of forty cents; . . . . , and so on, up to a dollar.
Now there, ladies and gentlemen, is a boy who will go far in this world. Ambition, a knowledge of finances, sales personality, and above all a supreme confidence in his ability to make himself noticed in this world.
Far down the street you could hear his clarion voice: "Sa'urid Evenin' Post! One sixteenth eighty cents...!"
OUR BROTHER'S KEEPER
This period of depression is more than a struggle during an economic crisis. It is placing humanity on trial and judging the brotherhood of men. Some of us have forgotten the origin of the Golden Rule.
We speak of breaking the law and the commandments, but something is breaking us, now. Our problem is to rebuild the fallen structure on the rock of brotherhood.
This winter will demand of all men fortitude, strength, and sympathy, and the best way we can help ourselves is to help others it can be a better world because of hunger and sorrow and a sounder civilization if we come to the realization of our responsibility.
The remedy of this crisis lies not alone in laws, financial policies, economic reconstruction, and federal commissions. The sound and practical answer was told two thousand years ago in a sermon spoken on a mountain in Palestine.
WHAT PRICE CO-EDS?
With the advent of the 50-50 club on the Southern California campus, another war was declared on gold-digging co-eds. Perhaps the club members aren't so gallant as their more philanthropic fellow students, but they may succeed in teaching college women a lesson in economy.
Fifty-five club members, who are identified on the California campus by an emblematic button, have issued an ultimatum to women students that they must pay half the expenses of dates. But shortly after the club started its membership drive, the women began an organized counter-attack by declaring a boycott on the men who were wearing the white buttons. They would rather pay all the expenses of a date, they declared, and get a good-looking piggo who could really dance.
And in reply, the men suggested that the town was full of plenty-sweet secretaries who would be glad to accept their 50-50 proposition. So there the matter rests.
evidence that women still possess an exaggerated ego concerning their place on a university campus, and it further shows an awakening on the part of the men students to the fact that entertainment values are highly inflated. It is even possible that these California women may discover their actual entertainment value after a few nights at home attempting to amuse each other.

I am writing you a letter which I do not believe you will have the courage to print.
I have been to a number of football games at Lawrence this fall. There seems to be a lack of spirit on the part of the student body at K. U.
We haven't anything to rave about this fall. Our team has been beaten in number of times. However, in no game have our men been badly beaten.
(Editor's note: If Mr. Kemmer's idea was to go up into writing this letter by his author valiant phoneticology he would have been unable to communicate the space. The Kemmer is glad to print any communications received by it, provided they are not offensive to public opinion. He is especially glad to hear the views of one of the University's graduate.)
If you fellows had been students in Kansas during the years 1913 to 1917 you would have had something to rave about. I attended K. U. four years Nebraska gave me a place to grow up. Of the four years Nebraska trimmed Kansas properly, one year 33 to 0, and the other year 35 to 0.

I am tired, as is Mr. Peters of this long-drawn-out argument of the foolishness of the college that there is no club in the University that is entitled to so much commment. The foolishness has been commente- ting for the college for the purpose for the K-Club to do is to admit public that it was in the wrong. I am not aware that the college will be even more tired before these contempt (?) "Campus-Polecenen" get tired of making ex-

Do that as it may, I am writing this letter with the hope that it will serve as a reminder to me that no one, as yet, has made a comment on the talk given by Doctor Lester.
Every student who considers himself a patriotic, red-blooded, trueborn patriot should be taught by Doctor Cox said—not say "Good steer and good tail." He asks that the generation that will next rule "the world, what can one do to make it better?" "It's an important generation the generation that will next rule 'the world,'
You students who did not go to the convention, this is the gist of Doctor Coe's speech:
In February, the United States will send delegates to Europe to a Peace Conference President Hillary Clinton and people who he serves is. It is our duty as individuals to told the President what we want and what we need to know what we want. But, if we wail until the moneyed-men see Mr. Hillary sees him who does not have the interest of the country at heart, we cannot right people and the right things done.
We students of K. U. must not forget that the most of us are right on the threshold of mumbojobs, we will learn how to do it ourselves, ourselves, and because we will soon be the men of the world, it is our duty, as clear-thinking adults, to enter into this crisis for world disarmament and we should enter into our own individual crisis.
I would like to see some of the organizations of the campus start the ball rolling by making a petition to the President, that he send the American people a petition to the United States stands for complete disarmament of all nations; that we as citizens of the United States forse the disastrous results if another war should take place that we demand the Press to report that he is still the servant of the people.
I, for one, will sign such a petition and I know a good many others in school who would.

These rays are made by a succession of electric sparks in oil. In the wireless telegraph experiment these rays were produced in a spacecraft and were placed on an opposite ends of this cylinder two brass balls were placed, of the same diameter as the cylinder, so arranged that they were approximately two inches apart, and with one side of each extended on the inside in respective end of the tube.

carried on Dec. 1, 1885, by Prof.
Lucien D. Blake, then professor of phy-
sics at the University of the Kansas City Star.
There will be a very important mose ting of the social chairmen of all sororities next Monday afternoon at 3:20 in the lobby of the Union Bank Building. Please visit www.sgca.org/SGA.
The underlying principle 'that brought about the invention of this wireless arrangement was the discovery in 1857 of the invisible waves capable of real-time vibrations discovered by Professor Hertz of the University of Berlin.
The receiving set for this experiment was placed on the University lab bench. This data was taken from the laboratory in the physics building, where this experiment was conducted.
These rays travel much slower than light rays and their size may be understood by the fact that they are 3 feet long, as compared with the forty-feet long yellow light ray. These rays are different from ordinary light rays, in that since they are so long and course they are able to work their way through the molecules of which all light rays can travel, that ordinary light rays cannot do.
Former University Professor Made Experiments With Wireless Telegraph
These rays thus formed passed through the box and vibrated out through space, the dots and dashes of the telegraph send set being reproduced according to the varying times in a circular motion out by a breaking of the circuit.
The receiving apparatus had as it, most important piece a high vacuum pump, which was placed in the cell plates were at one end of this tube, between which a special powder was placed. Two platform wires led from the pump to the cell plate, a cell battery and out to a pole of a polarized relay with a permanently magnetized armature, and the other with an electrical connector. Wires conducted the current from the relay to an ordinary Morse sounder. The Hertzian rays, which passed out of the spark in the oil, reached the specially prepared powder, which had the characteristic of contraction when it entered
the Morse receiver, thus bringing about the working of the first wireless net, which was later to develop into our nest day radio.
At the time of this experiment the possibility of Hertzian rays was confirmed. In the experiments it had been found that they could pass as far as 12 miles, but it was unknown whether they could pass through rocks as hills and certain mineral deposits.
At the time of the experiment, Professor Blake said that he was confident that this experiment would eventually result in something much better, but it wasn't going to be what the extent of its outcome would be, he did not attempt to guess.

Reno Disgusting to Scotty

that mystery man of fortune and sand,
is sticking his tongue out at Reno. He
doesn't like it at all, at all.
Because someone hit his car and his auto was brand new.
Scotty says of Reno, the biggest little city in the world: "Reno is overdone. Gamblers are playing solitaire and women are taking in washing. The town is over advertised. I tell you you go to a city on gambling and a court house."

When he was driving here last week, he said that man was a gambler and told him that business was so poor he paid the $2 repair bill. Scotty paid it.
