Perhaps the rain fell on a fortunate Saturday, but more frequently, it seemed, on school days. When it did come, and you had given up the ball game for good don't you remember the good times you had playing in the attic while the rain patterned on the low roof? A blanket spread over four chairs turned into a teapot, Grandmother's hats and grandfather's Civil War trappings were dragged from their hiding places in old-fashion trunks. Perhaps the neighbor's children came over and there were enough to stage a heated battle, with you side completely exterminated the enemy. If the wonders of the attic began to pall there was always the great out-of-doors, with gutters and creeks to paddle in. Perhaps the rain was only a drizzle, just enough to make the suckers in the brook bite eager. Then you would have a string of fish to exhibit proudly to the girl who were playing in the attic with their dolls. Later in life you chose to forget how to be imaginative. Pride made you put away those little playfulness of your childhood which had once been your reality, and turned you to other rainy day diversions. A good book, a movie, a game of bridge or pool, has taken the place that grand-father's sword once used to fill. Now you are in college. Gone are the days when you could sit in your room under the hot waves of the attic, and laugh at the dripping water. Now you must truss to your classes, extenably for an education. Rain will come, and you will go about your work. But why not think back occasionally and confess that those rainy days when you were a child were some of your most enjoyable moments? You lived your future life with your toys, happy in the ignorance of a coming sophistication which would destroy all your enjoyment. WE BISE TO THE POINT OF QUESTION At this very late date we wish to be informed of one thing, and only one what happened to all the student cheering section in the Kentucky-Colorado Aggie football game last Saturday? From the "commanding height" of the press box we could look down across the crowd, and to us it seemed as if students were scattered all over the stadium, the east side included. Before the start of the season we were informed that the card system of cheering would be used this year, the seating which would make it possible to be occupied by placing the majority of the students together. But when Saturday came around the collective mass of students seemed to have split into small groups, none of them well enough organized to accomplish anything in the way of unified cheering. The task of the cheerleaders is hard enough at the best, when even the most enthusiastic must be billed into yellling, without making it doubly hard by scattering the cheering section of approximately 3,000 students over a stadium designed to seat 36,000. If the athletic ticket department is to blame certainly something might be done about it. We can hardly think that the students themselves are to blame. The fact remains, however, that the The fact remains, however, that the vital cheering section, which Kansas seems to have been lacking for the last few years, can never be regained by the segregation of each member of the student body from his neighbor. WHAT AILS US? What constitutes an education? Why should we go through life like children who turn the pages of a book and believe that they are reading? Ever since the advent of the systematized university, these questions have been put to students and faculty alike, with but no results. We are ever in a glorious hurry, never stopping to ask ourselves what is the true meaning of it all, and what our main objectives are. Students are apt to make a mess of things by taking on many extra-curricular activities. They are always rushed, too busy to spend much time with their friends, but their hurry is glorified, as it were. Many persons compliment them on the unselfish service they give to the University, and they believe it. They do not realize that there is something fine and deep in doing things a few at a time and doing them well. What practically every student needs is a evaluation of the time he is spending on the campus. People should realize that they must read intelligently an hour or-two each day if college is to mean anything to them. Hectic days and nights should teach them the need for relaxation and rest, and hence should be included in the schedule for every day. Time for real study should also be included, and during every week there should be a few hours planned especially to make new friendships and to renew old ones. This arrangement of time would not be easy at first, but its lack is a serious defect in our educational system. We must learn to see the whole of things, and we must gain perspective Correct apportionment of time may determine the kind of person you will be ten years from now. JAY WALKING JAYHAWKERS On making a survey of the campa at the times when students are ascending or descending the Hill, or when they are going to and from classes, I appears that approximately 99 44-10 per cent of all Jawahayers are jaywalkers. Standing on their constitutional rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, Kansas student cut corners, walk four or five abrems and in opposite directions down the sidewalls, and insolentyl stroll in front of, among, or between, moving mote cars with an utter disregard for the comfort of others and the safety of their own lives, that is little short of amazing. Why do they do it? The dictates of consideration and common sense should make the students individually conform in some degree to the rules of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Not only do they exhibit extreme thoughtfulness when they violate these rules, but they expose themselves to serious danger Despite the safeguards of a fifteen-miles-per-hour speed limit and a traffic policeman at busy intersection there is a constant danger of being run down, due almost entirely to the irresponsible way in which students crazily hit fither and thither, entirely oblivious to any possible consequences of their jay-walking. During the past year or so several accidents of a minor nature have occurred. Only the protection of a benign Providence will prevent some really serious mishap. Automobile traffic, which has given considerable trouble in the past, has been to some extent controlled, thanks to the work of several student counsellors and conscientious campus policemen. The problem of handling and regulating student pedestrian traffic now remains to plague those interested in the peace and order of M. Ord. Unless the students themselves make it their responsibility to correct existing conditions, more authoritative measures must and will be forthcoming. Charles Gray Shaw, professor of philosophy at New York University, said, "Persons who whistle are morons devoid of moral stamina and possessed of an inferiority complex. No great or resourceful man ever whistles." One cause of the present economic depression is that we have had too many successful and great men and MORON WHISTLERS There will be a meeting of A.I.E.E. this evening at 7:30 in Marvin hall audition.

What America and the whole world needs today is whistlers and not so-called successful men. We need whistlers devoid of moral stalemata to the extent that they will intelligently buy, instead of hoarding their gold. Big business men have been unable to solve the present financial crisis, nor give the whistlers a chance at their success. Perhaps they too will be unable to think through this knotty, perplexing problem, but who will insist that they cannot whistle their way through it? Is anything impossible to a whistler who is he whistling? No, and neither would the depression be without a solution if all the whistlers got together and began whisting in a concerted, enthusiastic way toward better times. Read the Kansan want-ads. But seriously, the professor's generalization is too broad. Very likely he has not met the top flight of whistlers. The good professor's remarks indicate that he has observed the successful men in their more serious moments, but investigation of these same men would probably show that they too have whistled during some period of their lives, or at least tried to. Quite probably they have merely substituted some other habit equally helpful. F. H.
