ISN'T IT THE TRUTH?
The work of the Men's Student Council should not go unrewarded by being disrespected or laughed at by a mocking and unlashable student body. The boys have made mistakes in the past, but because of their goodness and nobility of character, they have righted the wrongs. Even at the last meeting a Journal-World reporter was excluded from the sessions. He reported that, because the council could control what was printed in the Kansan, there was no need to exclude the Kansan reporter. So he said they told him, And needless, if it went over big with the interpred news hounds on this great disseminator of campus gossip. But this little incident has been smoothed over now; it was really an attempt to give the Kansan a troop Imagine the group having something that would make a scoop for the Kansan!
Then there is the little matter of executive sessions which have been the hone of all Kansas council reporters during the past year. So far this situation has not arisen during the two sessions of the present council. But there seems to be the attitude on the part of council members that they are above reproach as far as Kansas criticism is concerned, and too often such criticism is taken as personal when mistakes of the council are pointed out or the wisdom of policies are challenged. They seem to forget that the council is not a thing of today and gone tomorrow, but has been on the campus for a generation, and like the Kansan, is here to stay.
And during all the time that it is, come the Kansan will continue to criticize, offer suggestions to, and challenge the wisdom of the council whenever the editorial mind cannot agree with the wisdom of the embryo politicians. The members of the council have the privilege of expressing their ideas or defending their actions in these columns whenever they desire to avail themselves of it.
One girl on the campus was heard to say that she did not like the big hats that are the style this year. "The brim is in the way" she said, "and it's so easy to get one of them crushed."
BLOODY UNREST!
The president of Ohio state University recently condemned the students and members of the faculty after "causing unrest and agitation" after they had signed positions demanding that military training be optional. Professor Herbert Miller, nationally known as an authority on social questions, was dismissed from the faculty.
All this in a land where liberty is supposed to be the first right of all citizens, and where the voice of the people is supposed to rule, and where force and coercion are never supposed to be used. Well, well! Sweet land of liberty!
Some people believe in military training; the uniforms are knockouts, and it sort of takes college students back to their childhood days to play with guns and march around to the roll of drums. There are others who do not believe in play warfare as a training for adequate citizenship. Mr. Miller, it seems, is one of those who wanted, not to keep military training from those who believed in it, but
simply to make it possible for those who did not believe in it to be excused from participation.
As a result, he has joined the ranks of the unemployed and will be able to study some of the problems presented by the submerged proportion of the population.
YOURS AND MINE
The Chicago newspapers have Al Capone; the aKnsan verifies all rumors.
The air is filled with our never-creasing wall over the Union building—its faults, its obvious disadvantages, its general inadequacy—yet we use its facilities, such as they are, every day, and find them such that we desire more. The Union building is used, time has proven that, but how can it be improved so that it will become a student center on the campus?
The Union idea has progressed much more slowly then on other campuses. In the first place the funds for its improvement and upkeep have been weakerly small. In the second place student support has not been as whole-hearted as it might have been. Admittedly the Union building here needs, and must have, improvement. We need a bigger and better building, and its usefulness in its present unfinished state is witness to the fact that the better it gets, the more it will be appreciated and used by students. The Union fee is not next compartment, but it is hoped that more full students will be needed for their support, pay their share, and then be Scottish enough to use the Union building frequently all year, in order to get their money' worth.
RATIONALIZATION
Found! the best way to pass finals study!
Time to forget the movies, dates and ball sessions? You know the finals are only two days off. Remember to gather up your books, go over each notebook carefully, list the points you are weak on and start the memory working. To some, the last two weeks of school means that coffee manufacturers will make huge profits in between a period of depression. It isn't cramping to stay up late and paint away on your books, some will say, it's just showing common sense to make sure that you answer the final examination questions correctly.
Students at this period of the semester are working under a strong tension. Seniors are complaining about the high graduation fees but are working hard so they'll be able to meet them. Juniors are putting forth greater effort in order to reach the highest peak of the undergraduate class. Sophomores are anxious to join the ranks of juniors, and the freshmen are trying to get away from the little hammet, the paddles and some rushing.
With this in mind, take care to arrange your books for this final drive. See that your notes are complete. Check in your classes to make sure you aren't back in any of your work. Then sit down at your desk immediately after dinner, smoke three or four cigarettes until 7:30, make some ideal promises to yourself about studying late, and end it all by asking somebody to go to the show with you!
As a result of recent highway tragedies, which indicate an increased traffic hazard on highways in this vicinity, civic leaders in Lawrence have launched a public safety educational program. The Traffic and Public Safety Committee, in co-operation with the newspapers, is extending its safety campaign over the whole community: the public schools, townpeople and University students.
Most traffic accidents are caused by carelessness or by a lack of knowledge of traffic rules and regulations. The state has enacted sufficient legislation to control its traffic safely, but accidents persist because of the reasons mentioned above.
PUBLIC SAFETY
Constant repetition of safety rules will no doubt serve to gain the desired results; safer travel on the highways. For it will educate people in the proper rules to observe, the proper way to handle an automobile in a given situation, as well as impress the public with the personal and public danger of neglecting to observe these rules.
MODERN RELIGIOUS WORSHIP
Acient church-geers found a relief for pent-up emotions through expression of their feelings in song and prayer. Old masters in the art of religious supplication insisted in the efficiency of prayer both in altering character and in developing vocabulary. Modern reformers have substituteduto-suggestion and oratorical contents.
Religious devices once sought the australian and衣hodipped a delity to enjoy the experience of awe and submity. They now gase at a skyscraper's rapid to some spot of awe-inspiring natural grandeur. They worship a great waterfall, the mountains, a gorgeal gorge, the rolling sea, a sheltering woods, the starry sky or a magnificent sunset.

At the Recital
Re John W. Skively
We have made it a point to see that others he crievates of senior recitals, because such are the most trying of receptions. The degree of unfairness is most necessary for the senses have reached the apex of their college careers, and any trace of an unjustified bias will bring a little lateness into what otherwise might have been a glorious occasion. The sense of finesse demands great skill, and criticisms are unmistakable, in order that the performer and his friends and other readers may properly judge the
But, on the other hand, the critic must keep in mind his responsibility to his publication and to his readers in his work. The reader will have no access of the recital. The seniors will have varying abilities. The writer will amply make his column an indemnity for the reader's interest and incurring any respect, without reader interest, and without fairness to the superior seniors who deserve praise or criticism. The senior uniter is he frank in his opinion.
Harlan Carles and Andrew Barker relied on us of the hurden of responsibility to ensure that we were able to which is a critics run in all faintness and discrimination can excelent. There was a good balance between the hard work of teaching compositions, between heaviness, heavy numbers and those demanding primarily depth of material. The numbers could have had a little more to them as actual musical composition would have been better with the material. So we are not sorry that notebooks, pre-final finals and reports kept the usual civile home
Miss Caras started with the Bauer arrangement of the Bach "Tocata in D Major," and made it interesting. If a musician gets through one of the heavier Bach numbers adequately, she can fairly accomplish the task. Miss Caras displayed a brilliant technic and considerable power in her opening number.
The classic gave way to the modern in Miss Burke's opening number, "Eye of the Needle," a trained pianist, with considerable musical taste, to make a modern compass-like instrument. She also played all the requirements, whether she was playing the more quiet "Must" or the brighter "Needle."
*Brightlite Peraphrase* (*Lliest*) on the program, but Miss Cocoros showed us in her last appearance that there was more than frills and fireworks to this dazzling display. The pianists are too much interested in the typical Latest showwomen to remember them, so they displayed a brilliant technic, but she knew when it was a subordinate part of the play.
Miss Carla became modern in her second appearance, playing the impressively adroit "Distint Bella," (Hendrik) and intelligent "Scheerzo" (Guffa).
A quite different type of Lias's compositions was displayed by Miss Bunker as the second number of her second piece, the "Perroque del perraume." Mozwacko's "Masquade and Unmasking" was the first number, presented in a real manier. The final number of this group is the composition of the Struma "Schatzwalzer."
We had misgivings when we saw the
The first movement of the Hiller, "Concerto in F Sharp Minor," was played by Mise Bunker and Peter Planin, for the closing number of the program. Mise Bunker had previously displayed a number that was probably the most brilliant.

in boating at night
At all times in pool
But when it's time for coursing
And you've forgotten your cunning
