DISCUSSION
The councils are aiding the Traffic and Public Safety committee of Lawrence in an effort to cut down the number of traffic accidents. They have discussed the situation thoroughly, and have even passed a resolution or two
have now arrived.
Somehow or other, these resolutions dangling around in the other are supposed to prevent serious automobile accidents, and the councils really should be allowed to continue with the work they have so nobly carried on thus far.
The administration has wisely left the regulation of student cars in the hands of the two councils. Wisely, because the matter of student ownership of cars is a student problem, and should be solved by the people whom it involves. The councils should not labor under the deulsion, however, that all the discussion from one year' end to the other will lessen the possibilities of accidents. Resolutions will not work as brakes in emergency, nor will talk keep a careless incompetent driver from going around a curve on two wheels.
The councils have disciplinary powers. Let them use them wisely and student opinion will support them. Depriving students who are incapable of sane devising of the use of cars on the campus would really be doing something that might prevent an accident. It probably wouldn't do much, but it would do a lot more than round table discussion, resolutions and talk.
SWEET REVENGE
We see that a lantern marked K, C,
S, R, R is valued as a keepake. Undoubtedly a memoir of college souvenir hunting days!
Those poor abused soils who have been made to listen to the crouning of a melancholy voice over the radio have their revenge. Rudy Valley has been convicted in court of appropriating the strains of that popular ballad, "I'm a Vagabond Lover," and will have to pay good money to the original composer.
The Vanguard Lover was one of those things like mosquitoes and sunburn, that came with the summer months, and was in the air so constantly that every station from Walla Walla, Washington, to Wakegen, Maine, had some amateur favorite stealing Rudy's stuff. Why anyone would bother to steal such stuff was a wonder to most people, but the ether was full of the walls of vagabondhouses. And now Rudy and his band have to pay for the pain they affected on a mild and unsuspecting public.
It was a smart copy reader who wrote the head, "Free a Beauty in Teens," instead of "Free a Woman in Teens."
OUR SPEAKER
William Allen White, who is ill IJ
Jamez Springs, New Mexico, will be
able to give the baccalaureate and
dress which he was scheduled to give
We are sorry; someway Mr. White
seems the appropriate class for a
Kansas graduating class. We don't all
know him, but we think we do because he is a part of the state.
In his place the Rev. Herbert Lockwood, Willie associate editor of The Christian Century, of Chicago, will speak to us. He is a man who by his
training and wide experience has gained a knowledge which has made him an entertaining and worthwhile speaker.
Doctor Willett has been a member of the faculty of the University of Chicago, teaching Semitic languages and literature. He was president of the Chicago Federation of churches from 1918 to 1920. The Life and Teachings of Jesus," "Basic Truths of the Christian Faith," and "The Bible Through the Centuries" are among the books which Doctor Willett has written.
Spring is that time when most typing consists of 'New' is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.'
CRIME INVASION
All America has become accustomed to hearing that Chicago, New York, and other large cities are infested with racketeers, but at least of all did anyone expect Washington to be the next victim. That powerful, conventional capital city, although unusually well protected in the number of policemen, has never had much more to deal with than the tagging of motor cars.
Seven murders in the past four days have startled its citizens. Much of the present crime is attributed to an invasion of criminals from Chicago, Philadelphia and other larger cities.
The city is free from politics, for no one in the district is permitted to vote. The police department in as far from political control as it can be. There is no underworld element in Washington, there are no speak-cases, no red light districts, or any other places which might serve as a meeting place for the criminal element.
In most lawless cities there is a basis upon which to work. Secret motives are known and gangs are known to exist. But in Washington there is nothing for the offenders to work on. One one knows the reason for the sudden invasion, nor how long it will last or how serious it may become. Washington has an unusually large police force, and other law enforcement agencies have their headquarters here as well as the army, navy, and the marine corps.
For that reason Washington shouldn't be a very healthy place for racketeers to work.
Devil To Pay. Zoop—advertisement in front of a local theater. Yes, just as soon as final start.
"TVE SAILED ON A SOUTH SEA TRAMP."
.
The feverish words appeared in an advertisement recently. We wonder whether they stirred the adventurous blood of our associates as quickly and thoroughly as they did ours.
The spring of the year, with its warm, fresh, invigorating air, always brings back the tales of John Silver, Molly Diek, and the sea. What could be more glorious, immediately upon release from a nine-hole pond, than another similar侵躯际 measurements, then a period of seamorship on a 'rump?'
You pass distant shores, where the surf breaks in furious disarray against the limestone cliffs hollowed and eaten by centuries of battering and pounding from this obstinate enemy. As the sun dies a blood-red death in the far west, you lie on deck and sing ballads of the Seven Seas. The sauls whip angrily before a stuff gale, the tang of the salty air blows persistently into your eager noirls.
You are drenched to the skin. A slip, and the sea night swallow you up. Your face stings with the impact of strong pellets of rain. But you are happy, and you lull instantly to your shipmates, for you have helped save a cargo, you have aided in keeping a ship affair, and more than all that—it's just good to be alive.
Nightfall comes and you lie in the darkness and listen to the musical clearness of the ship's bells. On this night the wind rubes in from the northeast, howling fiercely. The whistle blows ominously in the darkness. You come up from below and swear drunkenly over the wave-swept deck, clinging tightly to every rope or rail as you advance to the hatches and but them down.
The engineers named their goldlabs Gee, Goeh and Golly. But if the lawyers had named them it would probably be Durn, Darn, and — Dogenti.
YE GODS AND LITTLE FISHES
Gee, Gooh, and Golly. Just another fish story, but this one is pathetic and not exaggerated. They were orphans until adopted by a secretary in the School of Engineering and Architecture, and now they reside in the same building with men who study little more than construction work. These men aren't dauntly and don't pretend to be, and consequently it is our policy to have the delicate鱼 removed to a more fitting environment.
Speaking in behalf of the League for the Better Treatment of Goldfish, we demand that Geo, Gosh and Golly be placed in a better home; for example, the School of Fine Arts, where they could be entertained by melodious voices, pianos and string instruments. Eventually they may come to have an appreciation for music, and University programs will follow it. It is valuable for these little follows to understand music, but engineering work—well, hardly.
Oe perhaps we will be better to shift Geo, Gosh and Golly to the School of Law, where they could learn to follow the right course in life and at the same time come to regard music from a different angle. But leave them in the School of Engineering—now we ask: 'Is that a bit crow?' The men are so busy looking forward to ixperiences that they don't have time to devote proper attention to this small family.
Consider the facts. Has your education meant nothing to you? Toorm! Toorm! Protect Geo, Gosh and Golly from men who are looking forward to high interests but have no time for the little things in life. It is our duty to respond.
CULTIVATING A SEEING EYE
There is a class of girls on the Hill, more particularly in the English department, who are learning to look about them. They are realizing the importance of having eyes that see and care that hear. They have found that life is a great deal more fun if they have such equipment to take along with them wherever they go.
The name of the class doesn't matter nor that of the professor and the students, of whom there are only eight. The important thing is what they do. They try to see in everything that meets the eye or ear, or we suppose, even the tongue, nostril, or finger tips, something that has a story in it. They have done it so much by now that they can see things without trying. A pair of muddy rubbers in the corner can suggest any number of situations to them. They even imagined all sorts of romantic things about a very ordinary eagle-hanger that was hanging on a book in the wall. Between classes, they observe. When the class meets, they gather around their table and report. To visit their sessions is to realize that you have been going through life practically deaf, dumb, and blind.
A good hint from this class is to imagine yourself a novelist out on a hunt for the plot of the great American novel. The girls in this class do not all expect to write. But they do expect to enjoy life and they tell us that we'd be surprised how many interesting blogs this campus holds.
Plain Tales
DEMONSTRATION OF THE SUBJECT
The instructor was delving deeply into that intricate plane of finances, assets, and liabilities, a subject in which every college student is deepest in the game. Nothing startling had been revealed by the speaker, and one member in the back of the room, after fidgeting her notes, was told he was forced. He grasped for his手握cheif and as he drew it forth a great rain of nicks, pennies and dimes showered over the floor. Following the scramble on assets and liabilities was assumed.
THE CURFEW
All the Hill knows the everlasting complaint against the housemothers' clocks. They are always too fast around, but their clocks are not kept leaks that if you suggest they call Western Union for the correct one, they 'variably tell you that' the clock is broken.
There just isn't anything that can be done about it, so it seems. Therefore I will put it on the women's women on the campus welcome this 10:30 curve idea gleaned from Obit
Such a collegiate mannerism—a 10.30 curfew to keep housemothers from being too fast!
The last regular meeting of the Commoditopolitan club will be held at 7:15
evening. Important business matters will be discussed.
