SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1930 SOCIETY GOVERNS HIS FUTURE Clifton Farrell, 10 years old, offers good example of a boy whose future position in society will be largely determined by his environment of the next few years. Clifton is an incorrigible escape from home. He, is according to ok ideas, a liar, though really a romance; tc old ideas, a theft, though really only a boy who crawn the adventure in a bandit's life. He was found in a Kansas City bank the other day looking for money and being turned over to the detention auctioneer, who have been in similar situations before. If he is handled wrongly, society will probably have another criminal added to its lists. If his case is studied thoroughly and handled wisely, his adventurous spirit may turn him into an enterprising and valuable citizen. We may measure some progress from the time when such exploits would have stamped Clifton irrevocably as "wicked" or "sinful". No one has consigned him to the devil now; and it is realized that some outlet for his normal desires has been closed so that he has a perverted method of doing what other boys do in games or play. Slowly communities are coming to learn the most importance of good governance and its influence on social problems of many kinds. It is by no means simple to assure the future of the boy; but careful treatment will help much, and the proper attitude is essential. YOUTH MUST WIN The Kansan ordinarily disapproves of speeding on the campus; speeding is immoral and quite against Kansan policy. But yesterday there was a thrilling contest on the main drive. A K. U truck with a trailer came thundering along at a tremendous rate—say all of eight miles an hour. It had competition. A youth of four years old, dressed in a red sweater, pumped his velocipede along the sidewalk as fast as his legs would make it go. He got off to a bad start, but little by little he crept up on the monaster. At last he noSED ahead by the thickness of the paint on the front of the velocipede. The truck was done. It weakened slowed down. The rider on the sidewalk teased it—took a position just before it, dragged along like a rabbit fooling a hound, only a jump ahead. But the truck could do no more. It panted audibly, and the successful hero wheeled his steed about, flashed a look of glorious triumph, and cycled back to his original station in smiling ecstasy. AN EVER PRESENT HELP A day after this happened, two students were discharged, through a misunderstanding, from their places. He remedied the trouble; the boys were rehired. If they had not been, they would have been forced to leave the campus. Henry Werner, the men's student adviser, frequently performs services which do not get to the student body. The other day a university man, failing to find work, had packed his trunks and was ready to check out Mr. Werner found him a job. The point of these examples is this. Frequently the outlook is not so black as it seems—some of the most hope-less-looking situations in the world have been turned bright through the adviser's office. He does not run an employment exchange, by any means. The Y.M.C.A. and the coaches do that. But it is never a good idea for anyone who is despondent about his finances or some other trouble to drop out of school without saying anything. Mr. Werner will always be found to be a true and hard-working friend who will use all its resources to solve any problem. LIBERTY The Chancellor's remarks on the necessity of liberty in a university if the university is to become great are much to the point. American universities have frequently had their freedom curtailed in various ways: Private colleges have prostituted their teachings for the sake of bigger endowments; state universities have had the interference of politics and the fear of losing appropriations to avoid, in addition to military censorship and other evils. The necessity for freedom is greater even than the necessity of football victories if a university is to be a real university. Instructors must first of all be un hampered. Academic freedom must hold absolutely. No fear of retaliation for teaching unpopular ideas, no feel ing of insecurity, can be held by an in structor who retains a scientific atti tude. The students must be free to express themselves in class. The student publications must be free to offer their uncensored opinions. And all forms of freedom must in include more than the right to justify, the existing order. "Freedom for the thought we hate" is the only true kind Kansas is free, comparatively. Or that rests her greatness. On that also rests her future as an institution. "THE YOUTH BEHOLDS THE LIGHT" Roommate wanted — I have a fin room to share with another freshman who does not smoke. — Sign in the library. Cynical Europeans who criticis America for being completely mercenary would do well to come to K.U that they might see for themselves this case of unalloyed idealism. This seeker after a roommate does not say, "I should prefer a non-smoker, though a smoker may possibly do." No, he is definite as he declares: "Who-does-not-smoke?" It is a phrase worthy of being ranked with Patrick Henry's: "Give me a roommate who does not smoke," let us paraphrase it, "or give me—nobody." A roommate who does smoke suggests opulence, leisure, perhaps culture (though 'tis doubtful). What a fine idealism is this on our campus to renounce all these things, nay, even to renounce any roommate at all, for the sake of an abstract principle. Young America is rising to a new vision, it seems. But perhaps the sign-maker only wanted somebody who would not borrow his cigarettes. In that case, we should admire his shrewdness but not mistake it for idealism. Or perhaps he is one of those persons who raises windows and fuses athes dropped on the carpet; in that case we should dislike his fastidiousness. Or perhaps —O horror of horrors'—he is a puritan and, believing smoke to be immoral, wishes to apply the principle of prohibition to it. In that case, we should detest him with all our heart. A Danish girl recently received a day in Berlin at the expense of a Copenhagen newspaper. She was permitted to spend as much as she pleased, provided she acquired nothing of use to her later. NOT AN EASY JOB What a day of torture she must have had! Tantalus was constantly tormented by the thought of having all that his heart desired without ever getting it, and the Danish girl must have felt the same way. What would you do, now, if the same thing happened to you? You would go to Kansas City and try to find the most expensive thing there, regardless of whether you wanted it very much or not. You could buy nothing tangible except food. No clothes, no auto, no steam yachts, no business or stocks or bonds, no nothing that could last more than a day. The whole time you spent would be a day of torture; you would miss any fun you might have All members of the Jay Jones must report at 4:30 Monday afternoon at the rest room in central Administration building.

Organizations desiring to reserve rooms in University buildings for meetings should make such reservations at the Chancellor's office as soon as possible. THE RESULT OF THE ELECTIONS Uses of New Resin Product Range From Healing Cuts to Curing Knocks DOROTHY WOODWARD, President. Washington, Sept. 21—From healing wounds to measuring the knock of different gasoline seems a far cry, yet our military has been from two species of pane, seems destined to serve these two widely diffident nations of the United States Forest Service, in lieu. because you couldn't find anything to spend enough money on. The two trees from which heptanite can be derived are just as far apart on the commercial scale. One, the Jefry pine, is a valuable (lumber species, hardwood) tree whose sap as the apple vine because of the odor of apple or pinceapple that is using as they are. It merely remains for some question to appear as the wedge for the split. Something like prohibition may do the trick while the real cause lies hidden. Selanay Sarliyu You might, of course, purchase a the banks in town and go about scattering gold over the streets. The young Danish lady didn't think of that, evidently; but it's about the only thing that would satisfy a normal human being. Political observers for some time have predicted a new political lineup. There is, they have pointed out, no reason for a Kansas farmer to nullify the vote of an Alabama farmer, or for either of them to vote the same as a New York bootlegger. The solid south is far from disintegration and the equally solid north likewise, so it appears. But the present Republican-Democratic division is politically superficial, and there are elements in each party that would profit more by crossing over than by remaining as they are. It merely remains for some question to appear as the wedge for the split. Something like prohibition may do the trick while the real cause lies hidden. Some significant tendencies in national politics may be perceived as a result of the fall elections. The question of prohibition is going to be important once more, together with the financial depression and the general economic crisis in the country. ually emitted by its bark. This tree is found in the higher mountains throughout the greater part of Calliaca and contains a tree furnishing heptane is the Digester which viously has been considered a species of little value, used primarily for fuel. While the development of heptane also provides the curative value of the resin from these two trees, when applied to cut and wounds, was long ago discovered, and during the Civil War agents of the event to far-off California to secure it. If a crisis really is upon us, the fall elections ought to give some indication of what may happen.
