VOTING THE STRAIGHT TICKET
The coming election for the Men's Student Council is not so dissimilar to that of a city, county, or even a national election. The main difference is in the number of votes to be cast. The parties all have ideas of political achievement, promises, platforms, and "under-cover" work.
Students on the Hill who are members of a fraternity that belongs to a political party have very little to say when it comes to voting. If a party puts a man up for an office each member is expected to vote the "straight ticket," whether that candidate is the best man or not. But do they? No one, fortunately, has the privilege of ascertaining. But if they do, if they conform to the system, all they have is a right to vote as the party leader designates.
Not everyone in the machines is satisfied with the running of his party. Many in the coming election will not vote the party ticket, despite their familial affiliations or social friendships. They will cast their ballots for the "best qualified candidate." At least, the quoted phrase is admirable even if it is moth-eaten.
When a party is in power for several years too many students want to become the "big gimp." Then there seems to be a skip in the machine; for not everyone can hold office. Machine or no machine, many balllets will be marked in the election which will not be for the straight ticket, but for men who, in the voter's mind, are the best qualified for the respective office

POLITICS IN PRISONS
When prisoners, with their meager allowances, think enough of a retiring warden to pay him three-month* salary after he has been caused without pay by the state, because he was all alleged to be a Socialist, as is the case with Warden B. F. Van Dyke of the Oklahoma state penitentiary, there must be considerable merit in the warden's policy.
Socialists, regardless of their merit, have never been recognized in this country. Immediately following the World War several men who were elected by the Socialist party in New York were refused their seats in the state legislature. This is directly opposed to the American ideal of democracy which is supposed to be a government representative of the will of the majority.
Warden Van Dyke has shown himself to be a prison executive of extraordinary ability. His many reforms won him the admiration of a class of men which society has cast out as worthless and ingratiated. In his three months of service there were many reforms of merit inaugurated. Until the governments of the respective states are willing to recognize the ability of prison executives, regardless of their party affiliations, there can be little hope for penal reforms.
This fellow, Uino Pecararo, spiritualist, can't make people believe he isn't what he was.
SECTIONAL VIGOR AND OUTLOOK
The fact that activities and constant hurriedness enter so significantly into the life of students at this university can be traced directly to the fact that the school is a part of the Middle West, and that being so, it naturally falls under the influence of Western busy-ness.
The contrast, of course, may be found in what is often called "Southern lang-out." In the South—where people are more laureately in their pursuits, and unperturbed by the frantic manifestations of their "get-rich-quick-scheme" neighbors in the north and middle west—life can be interpreted wrongly, as laxness, simply because there is a noticeable lack of hair-triggered enthuism.
Count Keyserling, in his most recent critique of this country, gives conspicuous emphasis to a chapter headed, "The South Americas' Hope." The German praised the South for its belief that the unhurried enjoyment of life is a supreme value. He realizes that the Southerner does not work as hard as does his Northern neighbor, attributing a good deal of significance to that fact. In the Middle Western civilization, work has been deified, while the South has repudiated it as a deity. To the Southerner the furry of the Middle Westerner is suffocating and confusing; to the latter the ease of the South is nothing but sheer laziness.
It is the same, this difference in outlook between the Middle West and the South, in university pursuits. While education in the South is as pronounced as here, the social life there is even more recognized on this campus. That is a marked contrast, of course, if all the complaints regarding the abundance of social life here are well-founded.
THE OZARK RESORT
An owner of a resort in the Oakland mountains has appealed to Kansas City lawyers to send their prospective divorce clients to the Oakls for a three-month vacation. That length of residence is a prerequisite for divorce in Arkansas.
That it is a legitimate appeal can be easily maintained; and that such activities on the part of the reset owner are legal cannot be denied. The fact that some people will profit by the new Arkansas law which makes it easier to secure a divorce is not thought of as being anything anti-social. Promotion of such a change in the law and the attempt to capitulate on it are the privileges of free American citizens who see fit.
The assumption is that thousands of divorces are going to be granted every year, and the state of Arkansas is entitled to its share. The owners of Owens Ranch naturally want guests who have three months to spare and a roll of bills to spend. If, in advertising their business, they make divorces less difficult and more prevalent, perhaps that is only incidental. Certainly it will have to be condoned as an unavoidable result.
One of the candidates for president of the Men's Student Council is the son of an undertaker. This comment is not intended to infer that he expects to get a ghost vote.
Campus Opinion
--year-at least out of the deceives they would have gathered a little self-represented tendered them by students on campus and not in the rest of the world. The present coelonation of Kay-hawk-Oread are crying for fifty-fifty fraternity, non-fraternity rule; yet in their platform they failed to designate what was important to the men should trust this group to be fair and know by voting a straight ticket that their desired end would be achieved. The students fire thought their men so well known and outstanding that no information other than the names of candidates was necessary and the student body would

Editor Daily Kansan:
And what has the Oread-Kayhawk party done? Its entire platform is nothing but mid-saling. Members of the Oread-Kayhawk party lacked weakness by not stating a platform and resting upon its fundamental importance for their hopes of holding off an assault non-fragrant since its birth—with coming into its fold its diseposed neighbor by uniting with Oread for company collection of an office. Kayhawk would before have depended upon its own wings to carry it over the tidal waves this

As it is in Kayawkah-Oread, you bid fair to be burned to a crisp, and one should even bother to reach you a helping hand. You are killing a baby party because you're called men—raise your baby in the right way. And, in a short while, you will have a boy, then a man the whole Hill will be glad to back and call its

STATE UNIVERSITIES LEAD IN SCIENTISTS
Contrary to a widely accepted view about the achievements of the large number of state institutions are the ones that are proving most productive in turning out college students. A survey prepared by Stephen H. Klein and Peter W. Snyder, Higher Education The test applied was the number of graduates who had achieved a "star" in American Men of Commerce.
The actual rank of institutions on the basis of numbers is Johns Hawkins, the
University of Kansas, University of Chicago, University of Pennsylvania, Harvard, University of Indiana, University of Michigan. The rank of institutions such as John Hopkins, it is asserted, comes from the achievement of outstanding graduates from other schools, while the rating of the University of Kansas is said to be based on a survey.

Vol. XVIIV UNIVERSITY, April 14, 1923 No. 153
Charming, as usual was unusual for Carling, and its unflattened gaze Ella Geraldine Moten, Negro contrasts, appeared in recital. The audience was by far the largest to attend a senior artist. The audience's excitement in its applause for the young artist, who is a pupil of Mrs. Alice Mon
Poise and stage presence are necessary for any concert artist, and Miss Motten has more than the average young person of each of these qualities. She is also good at her ability to dramatize a little, and makes her more interesting to the audience. Too much dramatization is boring, but just the right amount makes no end of difference. Miss Mladen did her best to play the tragic "Bilantong" yu Schubert.
Among the highlights of the program was a group composed entirely of negro spiritualists, and Miss Maten sang them. We met members of the group member of her own race could give them. The ones that met with the most respect were the Jesseyes, and the old favorite "De Glory Road" by Wolfe. The latter reminded us of the time when that nummer of people appeared when he appeared in recent year. The other numbers of this group were "I'm a Po' Lil Orphan (Jessee)," and "My Journey," a composition of Brown.
Mot Mosten's voice surprises us all at times, due to the fact that her range is so large, and that she takes her high pitch with such strength in the central tone. Voice of her numbers were quite high, and more than once she easily hit a note at one time, as mezza-soprana. In only one number did she fall down so far as the high tones were concerned. A few shaky tones were quite evident in "internal" voices.

Among the Italian group was a most earnest bit of lively music, "The Christmas Carole," which artist put much of her personality into it. Debussy's composition, "The Manitou Suite," is a delightful piece. The piece has a delightful swing to it, and contains some nice opposites.
Miss Moten's dietion was rich and excellent, and she worked in some very nice places. But the cup was the best in this regard. The pianist and accompanist for Miss Moten was Ethele Moss. Miss Lovie Steele was the pianist for F Sharp Miner" by Dahennyli. She plays quite well, and has an excellent technique except for the fast that her teacher gave.
Miss Moten was called back again and again at the clean of the program and she gracefully responded with an encore.

STEPPING INTO A MODERN WORLD
How to extend the operator's range fivefold? There's an example of the problems put up to a telephone engineer.
This was part of a study in stepping up the speed of service to distant points. "Long Distance" used to relay your call to one or more other operators. Now she herself reaches the city you are calling, 30 or 300 or 3000 miles away.
The long arm of the telephone operator ~~ made longer
Result : in five years the average time needed to complete a long-distance connection has been cut from 7 minutes to less than 2 minutes.
In this industry even long approved methods are never considered beyond improvement. For men of the right aptitude, that viewpoint is a stimulating challenge.
