A WISE ACTION
The Foreign Office of the British government has suggested to all foreign representatives in Britain that they desist from laying wreaths on the tomb of the British unknown soldier, and that Britain do the same in their countries as a means toward "eradication of memories of the Great War." The Labour government attempted last year definitely to make Armistice day anti-militarist, in contrast to tradition; it succeeded in part, but there were many protests throughout England. This year it hopes to go further. Not only in England but all over the world Armistice day and Memorial day and the like are used to glorify war and to create an attitude in the public mind that war is, if not desirable, at least necessary and worth while.
The speakers who address the crowds at such times do not stress the fact that men are taken out in war for the purpose of being used as cannon fodder, that the ideals founds on the field of battle are perverted by their nation's diplomats at the conference tables afterwards. The military is therefore a case of "to the victors belong the spoils" under the.annotation of unjust and hypocritical treaties.
Ammunitie day and its kind are too often used to revive the bellicence of a nation. Their purpose should be to cause the people to stand in aave at the folly of warlance man and to resolve that war shall be obliterated and jinked as a national instrument. England has taken a courageous step and a wise one.
ONE, TWO, THREE AND GLIDE
The teachers lean against the wall, hoarse from counting, "One, two, three and glide."
The eighty women who attend the social dancing class which is sponsored by the W. A. A. in the gymnastium every Tuesday night leave the floor buzzing among themselves and discussing their progress in that intricate but necessary (?) art, dancing.
"If you don't dance, you just sit and alone," said one young lady. Almost all the Hill functions are dances. Those who do not dance find no entertainment for themselves at these airfields.
The fact that eighty women are interested enough in the class to attend is proof that there are many women on the Hill who wish to take part in the social life of the University.
THE AMERICAN ROYAL
When the American Royal Exposition opens November 15, the spectators are promised the greatest list of entries to look at in the history of the affair.
The American Royal is something more than a mere livestock show. It will more nearly be a convention of agricultural men meeting to display the products of their work. Other professions have their conventions and display their discoveries, and the farmers take this opportunity to do the same thing.
The fact that the entry list is the longest in history perhaps has its significance because of the depression which has been general over the country. The farm men no doubt realize that the American Royal will be a place to exchange ideas, and perhaps something may be suggested to relieve the strained situation in which the far-
mess have found themselves in the past few years. The financial status of the farmer is most important, particularly in the Middle West, for it is on him that most business is based. If his purchasing power is lowered, the whole country suffers.
THE COLLEGE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS
The College League of Women Votes is at work again. With election day tomorrow, this organization has been doing its hect to make women students more involved in the daily lives of visitors to the polls and citing the people's choice.
The League, which is the college branch of the National League of Women Voters, was chartered at the University four years ago. Miss Alice Winston, professor of English, was influential in obtaining a branch of the League here. Membership is open to all University women interested in objection to the motto of eligibility of candidates, and women's place in politics.
The local branch annually has experienced the loss of most of its ambitious workers by graduation. In order to carry over a group of informed members from year to year, the League now is endeavoring to enlist the services of underclassmen who are interested in politics. Since women have been given the franchise, they might well to learn how to use it to the best advantage.

Campus Opinion
The Kaukai received a letter unsigned about democracy on the Hill. It was by a woman, and evidently intended for campus opinion. If the letter was approved, the opnition will be published, though her name will be omitted if she wishes.
CRIME AND PUNISHMENT AT K.U.
Editor Daily Kananai:
The great get-By, firmly entrenched in the American culture, exacts its particular banage at Kansas University, it seems, in intellectual dishonesty. It is the particular excused in other ways, but the particular aspect considered herein is that of classroom cheating. This may take several forms, the most prevalent being crebiling on examinations and the turning in of written work not strictly written.
The faculty have delved into the problem, and after due consideration have relied assumed the blame, an in having to prove their own wrongdoing over students in examinations. Their solution is rigid policing and strict enforcement of severe penalties. Alas say they watch dogs of ourselves they won't have a chance to peep, and if they don't see them they should

Crime is always the result of an attitude and value. It seems to come from the absence or the failure of the direct result of the values placed upon certain things by a materialistic society. The matter of getting an education is inwardly connected with the certain amount of work is invested and wages drawn in the form of grades. These grades are not noticed, and get paid for it, so much better. Extra dividends in the form of intellectual enlightenment are received.
This idea of having a visible reward to work for is inherent in our culture. I am not condemning the use of grades in school, but it seems that some similar sort of form is necessary under our present academic organization. I merely wish to point out the well known fact that the grade has become rather than intellectual development.
Secondly, it is another familiar American trait that anything is respectable, so long as we can "get by" with it. The only crime is to get caught.
Can anything be done to repair these flaws in our culture pattern? I think so. But I do not think we can remedy them by making watchdogs of our "unity."
Third, most people have a "get-rich-quick" complex. Few object to getting something for nothing.
In the first place, no supervision can e absolute. Second, it is a proved fact 1 penal practice that the more severe penalty is, the less it is enforced.
The only real solution of any delinquency problem is prevention. No delay in implementing it will change an attitude; it is a matter of ideals, moral, and esper de corps, de mots, et de pensées only through education. I would suggest that this education be carried on with the help of a tutor.

One thing that has been bothering me for a long time is this: are the result of Lawrence in cabbots with the administration of the University of Kansas? If not, then I think the result in front of Watkins hall is unpaved and half of it is without sidewalks.

I defy anyone to try to find a smooth
roof to climb on. I will be unable until he reaches Fourteenth street.
Instead of canes, we find pebbles to the right of us, pebbles to the left of us. What's the matter have they run out of concrete? If they can't find a road, let's have a sidewalk, anyway.
Here's where I put in an S. O. S. call to the University of Kansas—Save Our Shoes.

The artists come to give us their best,

up for the artist, and a one dollar one dollar more for the privilege of

Editor Daily Kansan:
right, but there are always a great number of seats in that section which are never occupied; while the majority of them are occupied in the back of the house—many sit in the last row. And these seats are permanent; there is no chance of getting a seat.
Cant there be some way of determining, from past year's audiences, the usual number of seats purchased by those who pay the extra price, and then have that number of seats reserved. What percentage of the good seats available to others.
Such a seating arrangement would give the artist an impression that there is a larger audience, and any artist who uses it in order that he may give his best.

A GOOD SUGGESTION BUT ITS A LITTLE TOO LATE
I agree with J. R. M. who criticizes the sign in front of the Administrator building in yesterdays Campus Opinion magazine, over that the sign is facing the wrong direction if it has a direction to face. Since it does not have one to face, let's have it removed as it distracts from the goal. The sign on the coyons tonight is Halloween.
Consider Calendar Change
Editor Daily Kansan:
International Committee Favors 13- Month Year; U.S. Invited to Meeting
F. D
Washington—UP) With the recent announcement from Geneva that an international conference on calendar considerations of what changes may be made in the present calendar is being undertaken by the national committee
Now that planes for the international conference have been definitely formulated, it is expected the official invitation to the United States to participate will be received soon after the opening of the League Council in January.
Out of several hundred plans introduced for construction of a new calendar, they have been narrowed down and proposals for a fixed sexual calendar have been submitted.
One group consists of those plants providing for division of the year into 13 months, each with four weeks. The other is made up of the so-called equal
quarterly schemes which retain the present number of months, merely changing the days in some of them so as to equalize the quarters of the year. In the United States it is believed the 13th proposal would be the letter of the second.

Oregon's proposed law is similar to Tennessee's, first state to create an anti-cigarette law.
But assurance of at least 18,000 favor- vote was indicated by the petition to elect him as mayor ballot. Little trouble was experienced in obtaining the required number of votes.
The wording of the Tennessee law, repealed in 1921, has been nearly duplicated in the proposed Oregon code. Orca customers greater restraint on would-be encumbers.

Here's what you get in a 100% pure Alpaca Pile Obercoat
First quality Arequipa Alpaca—the very finest the world has to offer, famous for its great warmth and exceeding light weight.
100% pure Alpaca Pile is in no way affected by rain. If you have been caught in a storm, just shake your Obercoat out or brush it—and the fabric will show the same silly, furry, upstanding pile it had the day you bought it!
Fabric woven with a wonderful W-Jock construction that prevents the fibres from pulling out or shedding as they often do in imprints.
This sort of performance cannot be expected of an imitation containing wool, for wool will mat down and lie flat after a wetting, and never look the same again.
Genuine Alpaca Pile fabric caning fade on water spot because it is the natural color of the Alpaca hair. No dye has been used in its making.
Alpaca Pile Obercoats are tailored with the characteristic style of Ober garments. They are lined with hiusrons silky lining which makes for ease in getting into them and luxurious appearance when they are laid off.
Last, but not least, they cost no more than ordinary coats!
