TO THE OLD UNS
Lounges creak under sleeping fraternity ladders covered with overcrows or bathrobes; parties go on all day and all night; reunions are held; cries of "Well, hello, there" are heard; the strain on everybody is fun while it lasts, but nevertheless distinctly relieved with "normality"*s* return. Home-coming is on.
We all glad to see the old grad hack-it - sounds like the old booey perhaps, but you remember how you felt when you were here. You looked wide-eyed curiosity upon the old mobshack of two or three years or maybe of decades ago who could be classed almost as charter members of the University of Kansas; they were interesting relatives and curious well-wishers welcomed heartily, and out of it all, somewhat to be sniffed at and passed over for the things of one's own interests and for one's own contemporary friends.
Well, we are glad to see you. You surely remember now how you felt; it's just the same. Remember that Homecoming is a highly abnormal time. We're a little worked up right now, what with this and that and the other.
While you're here, remember that the University is worthy of your support in other of its branches than football. Kansas' instructors need decent salaries, Kansas needs more adequate facilities for research, and especially a larger library.
Kansas is only as great as her universities. And don't think a university consists of a football team entirely, even if a ticket for a football game costs $3 while a seat near Jascha Heifetz costs only $2.
Intellectuals say that no man is wholly responsible for his acts when under the influence of mob mentality. We are glad to know that the person who stepped on our little toe at the rally last week had some excuse.
CAP'N STORMFIELD WAS RIGHT
Give us hell-oh, don't take that wrongly. We mean it in a literal sense. Seeing that harp in the Tippec band last night reminded us of Captain Stormfield and his woes with the heavens' heaven, Captain Stormfield, you know, to get heaven and, being about as naive as the proverbial yokel who buys Brooklyn bridge for fifteen dollars, promised to hold a good many people's harps before he realized that the darn things were not so highly desirable as they had been cracked up to be.
Unwieldy instrument! Why didn't the apostolic fathers pick out something light and gay? Perhaps a zither would have done; then at least we could sing, when we reach the heavenly spheres, "Is this a zither?" A ukelele would have been ideal; so would a radio.
But a harp—heavens, not Paradise exists for pleasure, happiness, the contemplation of good, the lack of evil thoughts and desires. Who could help cusing if he had to drag one of those arms around all the time? Unless there are at least two exim-strong angels assigned to us for harp-toters, we think the other place might be more profitable.
At any rate, Satan, trot out your
wares, What advantages do you claim or your hostelry?
The Shab of Persia has ordered an American-made motor with fittings enriched with gold and precious stones on the wheels, so you can put on our cars are those in the tires.
No harpa? Fine! Reserve us a nice suite.
WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
Mid-meseture again, and with the usual moans we lament the things which might have been, had we only studied at least once in a while. Procrastinators one and all, attempting self-justification because there are not hours enough in the day to complete the tasks before us.
How busy all of us are these days
Our many social requirements and cultural developments take hours of time which simply cannot be ignored. Then we must have moments of mental relaxation from the strenuous hours of creative thought with which we seek connection through the cosmological scheme of things.
When these things have been accomplished, we have very little time left for the all-important ball sessions which undoubtedly are essential to a proper understanding of the real things in life. Yes, we are all very bury these days and feel the ingrateness of an educational system which does not allow us a little time beneath the spell of a gorgeous moss. But college is college—and who wants to be a genius anyhow?
The United States exports $0,000,000 worth of second-hand clothing annually Apparently the "Three Gold Balls" idea flourishes in other countries as well at this.
THESE WOMEN
On the stage of the auditorium in the administration building Wednesday night some half dozen young gentlemen got up at one time or another and delivered a speech. Then a woman got up and delivered a speech. The judges got together and came out to talk and made had made the best talk. She was declared the winner of the campus problems speaking contest.
And so another mark is clarked up for the women. The less deadly sex again must break down and admit that a woman has shown it up. Such things happen with monotonic regularity these days. Woman, who has always had on her side advantages too numerous to mention, has added brains to the weapons she uses to subdue the unsuspecting but dazzled male. When women get their equal rights, they go ahead, just being themselves, and grab everything in sight. If there is anything they haven't got long to will have. There's no stopping them, now that they started moving, now that their plane master is in the back room of a pool hall.
It's time the men were handing together one last stand. Not that it might be futile.
Senator George Moses, from New Iphoneia, says that the next two years "will contain an amplitude of difficulty for the administration." About time for Moses to lead on to another Canaan.
The campus chest campaign has been characterized by Mr. Werner as a referendum to determine whether the student body wishes to eliminate the numerous drives which we have previously held on this campus. If each of the participating organizations is worthy of support, the new plan will be a test to decide the merit of a single campaign instead of many.
SOMETHING FROM EVERYONE
Apparently the organized houses are in favor of the new movement, for already a large number has notified the campaign committee of willingness to support the idea entirely. The success of the campaign, however, will depend not upon the organized church but also on the uneasiness of the rest of the student body. It will not be possible to reach the goal which has been set unless the campaign receives "Something from everyone."
Headline: "Princess in Tears at Rihine Wedding." Mussolini's power must be waning if he can't control Italian weather any better than that.
The air will be full of dark whispers. Strange signs will convoy secret messages. Door will be locked, MEN will go to enter rooms in their own homes.
Yes, it's coming slowly, but it's or the way.
Women and children will be CRUSHED by mad throngs.
MEN'S purses will be emptied to payribute.
WHAT?
It's coming.
Small children will wait anxiously, hoping against hope.
Yes, Christmas is coming.
Campus Opinion
Who counted the votes cast by freshmen who wanted to ballot and were sent to Fraser?
But we like fm too, and shouldn't object to his. The weather man here ought to have plenty of it.
FUN FOR ALL
The weather is quite pleasant today. But don't get the big head over it. The weather man just isn't the kind of boy who is nice always. He likes his jeets. Likely as not tomorrow you'll need a "big head" to keep the wind from blowing your hat off; then it's just as good a guess that you'll need a slicker. And when it rains, then the weather man has his fan, for sometimes it's a gentle shower that lasts all day; and then again it may be passing showers that come, always, between classes to harass the student while Pluvius stands off somewhere and laughs with glees as we get wet.
Editor Daily Kansan:
The Apostles are with us against Surely, were those venerable old saints to be given a glimpse of their modern namesakes, they would give a few more examples. But playing of the celestial harp, probably wondering why the modern college
would allow such foolish nonsense. Our athletic department, or whoever was responsible for this late outburge, bears a reminiscent resemblance to our tremendous ability to play games, difficulty attains, just passes another law and then contests reverts from its tremendous ability to work wonders with a situation that is already overburdened with numerous nonsensical laws. Our compulsions grow massive of corpses of pop organizations which, after having made a few feeble attempts to rejuvenate our team, give up the growth and give up the good life. Our latest organization, which is expected to work wonders among the student body, which we are working towards, having bunch of maniacs, is just some more rubbish to be disposed of before we can resume our normal activities. The smart-little red cots on the campus smart-alceas will increase the enthusiasm of the student body at football games is undeniably unrounded.
Plain Tales
Having enumerated the faults of our I offer a remedy. My conviction is that the team can't be more successful under no obligation to yell. It is discouraging for him to pay the two fifty and then be led around on a bicycle or walk around like to enjoy the game. If the football team can't excite voluntary comment from the spectators, it is not worthy of money. If they suggest that the name Apaches be changed to Martyrs, and that that body be referred to in history as the last prisoner captured by the Army, each member be given a pension of fifty cents annually to compensate the loss of his newly acquired dignity. If he gives you the pension for spending money, I would suggest that it grant bonuses to those students who exhibit the most persistent and veiling behavior at the next game. C. P.

Two students were discussing the marimba after the Tipics's concert last night. The introduction to the entertainment had mentioned their superior
"The most evident superiority of the marimba is in its timbre," said the first, "Yes, of course, anybody could see it with a hand second." The keys are made of wood.

So many unhappy things can happen to increase that old inferiority complexity. Deans and Doctors, Mid-years and Finals, all dedicated to the cause of making life a burden. Coca-Cola was made for times like these. Here's a drink that will quickly invest you with some of its life and sparkle in your taste. It's a tasty taste. And leave you with that cool after-sense of refreshment in which a rightmost megalomania may wax fat and prosper.

CREAM-COLOR CORDUROYS?
The distinctive color of Campus Cards sets them apart from ordinary corduroy trousers. That's one reason why men in certain great universities have approved these smart corduroys.
Another reason is that Campus Cords, made of the finest Crompton corduroy, narrow-ribbed, are tailored with the same skill as the best clothes. They have the hip-fit that university men want; they have clean, trim lines; they hang right.
And Campus Cards keep their distinctive style to the very last—through countless rejuvenations in the wash-tub at home, or at the laundry. Some men prefer to have them dry-cleaned. it's all the same to Campus Cards!
SMART!...
YES, THEY'RE
Good stores, with a keen sense of what university men want, are showing these good-looking corduroy trousers. Ask for them by name, please.
... Campus Cords.
