OLD SNOW HALL
One of the most sensible suggestions for the disposition of obl Snow hall that has been offered thus far is printed in the Campus Opinion column on this page.
Old Snow hall is beautiful and lovely—not so much for its architecture as for the ivy which covers it, 'the birds that hover about its walls, and the mellowness of its weatherbeaten stone. A host of associations surround it—especially the memory of departed classes who planted vines at its base. It would be不便 to destroy it utterly. Yet it hides Watson library. The plan suggested, to save old Snow's arch and as much ivy as clings to it, would be an excellent way to overcome both difficulties.
We profess no desire to imitate the university of Missouri in any way. But such a question has no bearing on the matter. It is incidental.
We trust the authorities will look kindly upon the general suggestion of our student writer.
MAKING GOOD
"Nothing is seriously wrong with this country," cartoonist Dighton championed one of his pictures a couple of years ago, "when such things as this still happen"—and he pictured Hoover, just elected to the presidency, as an orphan boy of 10 years.
There's a great deal of truth in Ding's remarks. Peter, the Teach PantVendor, or Socki or Swim, as Horatio Alger Jr., so graphically put it, is one excellent and typical picture of the way in which American youth can rise from poverty to affluence, of course, means leadership and greatness.
"He 'made' good" is a phrase that may range in application from a description of a college boy's necking to a picture of the inevitable success of someone who has consistently applied the principles of thrift, morality, perseverance, etc., etc., to his endeavors—but not until a few days ago has one been original enough to think of committing a crime in order to break into the lineup of a prison baseball team.
Variety is the spice of life, the bulwark of American greatness. We are glad to recognize a true American genius who represents the originality of our youth at its best.
One Cal. boy recently burned down a burn with that end in view; and, as the new story puts it, we are glad to learn that "He made good and today is a regular on the prisoner's (sic) nine."
K.U.'S ROLLER COASTER
The newest kind of roller coaster, you know, is a road which is made up of a series of steep little hills over which one drives his car as fast as he can and tries to stay in the car. It is said to be exhilarating and "gobls of fun."
KU. his' its own roller counter, but somewhere or other it doesn't strike one as being either thrilling or funny; for usually people riding on it are not out for entertainment but are bound for classes—and they aren't particularly anxious to be jolted and jarred and flung into the car top.
The road referred to is the one coming up the hill from the south, back of the library. It is a disgrace to the University.
A UNITED STATES OF EUROPE
A UNITED STATES OF EUROPE
Under the auspices of the League of
Europe, 27 European countries have
counsel on the plan for
U.S. States of Europe.
The idea has been discussed for some time. Briand of France receives popular credit for proposing and developing $H_1$ and he is chairman the committee
to organize and enlarge the plans of the new federation.
The foolishness and danger in having immutable little countries, each with its red tape and each unen-ordinated in any way with the others, is apparent. The mixing of different nationalities under one flag, as occurs in central Europe and the Balkans especially, has also been a source of much friction. A real United States of Europe should eliminate these conditions.
As Briand has so aptly pointed out, a passenger riding on a train through Europe might have to pay for his breakfast in francs, for his bunchen in marks, and for his supper in something else, in the meantime perhaps having to submit his passport and property to six different sets of custom officials.
It is impossible to predict how far the United States of Europe will be allowed to go. Mutual distrust and misunderstanding may limit the countries to mere agreements on tariff regulations or something of the sort. But even that is a forward step. And if the beginning of this new nation does not look very progressive, perhaps it will develop, in time, into something really worthwhile. It is a highly necessary, though preliminary, beginning of a greater internationalism.
THE DAY OF APPRECIATION
Men sometimes have to die before a fickle public comes to the realization that they probably amounted to something, but fortunately it appears that the Union Memorial building will not crumble to atoms cee its many possibilities have been fully realized by the student body. Public sentiment about the Union Building has in the past been manifested in terms that are not in harmony with the spirit of the builders. Sagacious seniors have painted the finger of scorn and uttered the word "windbreak," and impressionable underclasman have aped this scathing batter to an unrestless degree.
But things animate and things institute have their cycles. Today the Union Building, with its numerous facilities for the entertainment of students who have some time to spare, has come into popular favor. The banquet room and dance floor have been greatly improved by the erection of a false ceiling which faithfully conceals thousands of mails that last year pointed angrily at the inmates below. In the onage room, private rooms have been prepared for the use of various student organizations in order that they may hold their meetings without coming into public view.
"This is the year of the Union Building's ascent into popularity—and such popularity can only be marred by the unfair jocundity of those persons who, having grown to be sophisticated, may seek to affect others' appreciation of the building. For such persons it might be well to suggest that "to live and let live" is a pleasant purpose in life.
The Union building deserves rather our support than our satire.

--circular walk to the library approach or a floral border decoration would complete the construction.
Because "Old Snow" obstructs the view to Watson Library, it will no doubt be demolished at the orders of the next legislature, or rather because it might be expensive to recondition its windows, or be more difficult, and modern student occupancy.

The dignity which belongs to age, the hooded beauty of stone-buildings overtained by memory stimulated through the beats of the heart, passed through its porta, it seems a duty to adulterate entirely. Rather could he have been a monument to K. U.'s past and a tradition for K.U.'s future. A monument to K.U. would be a day's activity on the Hill would be a fitting one to those of the University of Kansas who have found their places in history.
This could be accomplished when the destruction begins. Let a committee of architects, designers, or whether it is the Civilian Chancellor when the legislation allows the project to be carried out. Let them select the ports of "Old Snow" itself, then pass it through and whatever accessory construction is necessary to keep them architecturally beautiful, leaving the elements.
And herein allows a solution.

My musical talents find expression in nothing more than the occasional act of putting on a phonograph record or in the twirling of the dials of a radio set. I like to appreciate it. I admire the ambitious young man that has battled with a trombone or trumpet long enough to subject it to complete mastery. I adore his energy and strength, who strife so much to abuthe sour notes and coax sweet melody out of their instruments. Admire their pain and enthusiasm and the spirit they

But I have heard several band members gripe because they felt their work was not appreciated. I have seen upperclassmen drop out of the band because of their time and of their time than it was worth. I have heard several say that they did not care to do their best work in the band because they felt not enough credit was given for it.
If the Kman would institute a campaign for same scheme to be worked out whereby more incentive could be
