FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 1230 BLOW WIND BLOW This wind is terrible. Something should be done about it. No one is in favor of it, and it is destructive to the best that in a person. Think of the nerve-wracking experience for a girl walking by the boys' school over at Green hall with the wind blowing. And the men do not feel in the best of humor after facing a stiff northwest'. Trying to study with the wind blowing outside is a terrible experience. And tennis—who can play tennis with such a gale? Something just ought to be done about this wind. A board fence a couple of hundred feet high might be built around the campus, but that would be unsightly and would call forth another trade of editorial criticism, so we can't do that. Underground passages would let the sound of the wind come in, and that wouldn't be so nice, either. And they would be so quiet, nothing to build adequate passages. Anyway we take it though, every one nearly seems to be against the wind. Drastic measures should be taken to stop it. The Thoughtful Freshman inquires the difference between an esculator and an esculator. EQUALITY IN JUSTICE The Kanman, in its editorial page last night, pointed out what is believed to have been a fine attitude on the part of the minority concerning the campus racial question with relation to the midweek dances. There is, however, more to be said. The action of the Negroes in refraining to attend the midweek dances, apparently from motives of self-respect, promotes peace in the entire student group. Had they persisted in their attendance, much racial and factual difficulty would have been aroused and serious discord probably have resulted. As it is, their viewpoint should be done to give them the privileges to which they, as University students, are entitled. In the best belief of The Kusan, something will be done in this connection. It understands that the operating committee of the Memorial Union building is ready to provide separate dances for negro students at any regular time that they desire, whenever that is possible. It should be done at once. These students have their social needs and their rights. The congressional directory never seemed so great to us, but when we hear that high school students are compelled to copy pages of it as punishment our estimation drops a few more points. THE KANSAS RELAYS One thousand athletes—70 or more college and University teams—banners streaming--cheers and playings crowds cheanding—and thus is presented the picture of the Kansas Relays to be next Saturday. The day preceding, the high schools of the state and many from other states will compete in the inter-scholastic meet. The best of these teams will be invited to participate in the relays the day following. And what does the relays program mean to Kansan? It means a great deal of advertising. The relays spread the fame of the University more than do the activities of any university team or any other campus activity. Visitors here from different parts of the West see the University; and for the departments that take advantage of the crowds brought here to see the relays and show them the scholastic things to be gained here, the relays will have a scholastic meaning. Many of the high school athletes who come here form their impression of the University in the few days they are in Lawrence; and a few of the athletes competing from the university give them a given chance to investigate K. U. as a place to continue their higher education. And there are other gains gained. Athletics help to bring out the better qualities in those taking part, and by interesting the many in sports, tend to bring out the best in people. Sports in themselves need no alibis for their existence. Doctor Brinkley has arused theire of the medical profession byhi broadcasting of certain information termed sickening fifth by a medica journal. Not so long ago he weared o doctor who was unable to tellwha was wrong with a sick child. He feel the little tot some drugs that gave fits,which he knew how to cure. "IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS "A little waste paper fire in a wire trash burner, encouraged by a strong southwet wind, late yesterday grew into a big fire. As a big fire it de-veloped three homes, damaged two others, filled still others with smoke and menaced the lives of fireman." It is foolish to build fires, even if trash burners during these days, high winds. No amount of watching can keep a fire from spreading, if farned by a terrific wind, such as has been blowing this week. Even more unwise is the student who builds camp fires in the groves on these spring picnics. It is known that a woman on the campus had a new coat completely destroyed recently when it became necessary for her to smother a little picnic fire which started on a rampage through a woods of dry grass and drier wood. And with the estimation that the Kansas City fire cost $23,000 and the student's coat, $25,000, comes the thought that the little things not only count, but also coat. It won't be long now until the students begin to wish they had done oday what they could put off till tomorrow. MEMORIES Perhaps it is this uproaring wind that has swept Mt. Oread the past few days which brings it to mind, or maybe it is former environment, but today is the day when rural school boards all over the state are having their annual meetings. The meeting finally ends with the same teacher coming back; no decision about the coal, and everyone apparently very well satisfied with himself. Just another point in favor of more centralized control in our school systems everywhere! to buy the winter's coal supply this summer and another want to wait until winter comes. Things go round and round in an endless circle. Everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time, and everyone is all primed with his own ideas and his own wishes in regard to how things should go. None is satisfied until he has had his say. One family want their daughter to teach the school the next year, another want the school to consolidate with the nearest city school. One family want SENIOR INVITATIONS SENIOR INVITATIONS The annual trek is on. Practically all the seniors are wending they way over to the business office to invest in some senior invitations. Of course none of their friends or All sensors who expect to finish their work for degrees in the summer session of 1920 will fill out application-for-degree cards in the registrar?^1 OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XVIIH 11, 1910 No. 156 BAND REHEARSAL: --and rehearsal will be held Saturday afternoon at 10:00.

PL LAMBDA THEETA: Phone 618 303 W. 13th A brief hall in social activities in the near future is approaching. It comes before the farewell parties, picnics, and what have you, and in that time there is a curtailment of most of the regular parties on the Hill. Then would be a fitting time to give such an entertainment. P1 Laamiah Theta will meet Tuesday night, April 15 at 7:30 in room 115 (raser hall). Program is to be on educationals meetings. Corner Grocery R. M. Reeves. Prop. relatives would know that that particular person was graduating unless he got that invitation. But it does help to remind them that some sort of present is to be for bothending and they try their best to think of something good enough to send which won't cost too much. Staple and Fancy Groceries AND DO IT The invitation isn't the only thing which has to be sent out, either. Just as soon as the presents arrive and have been duly glouted over, then the letters of thanks must be written and sent to one and all. Once in a while the note really rings true. But still humans go on sending invitations, receiving present and writing thanks. At least it gives the manufacturer, the printer and the saleman a job, and in so doing it helps the unemployment situation which is of so vital importance. A billiard table would be a worthy addition to the recreation facilities of the Memorial Union. It would give people who enjoy the game a chance to play when otherwise they would often be denied the privilege, and it would permit others to learn the game. A benefit entertainment of some nature to get a table would be welcomed by the faculty and students. The different committees connected with the Union would feel glad to see such a thing and would be more than willing to give all possible help with anything suggested. ZOLA SNYDAL, President. The SOCIALIST CLUB $1.00 Mineral Oil 59c $1.25 Pinkhams Compound 89c Liberal discussion however, is different from socialism. This club, if organized, will be able to stir up constructive thinking of a concrete nature, and to put forward concrete solutions for judgment. It should be an aid to the "Why Club", not a rival to it. $1.50 Petrolager 98c A move has been made on the campus to form a Socialist club. The purpose of such a group will be to educate students concerning the basic principles and ideals of socialism. Some people are violently opposed to all forms of socialism. Others don't believe a socialist club "will work" on this campus. These think we have too many clubs already, that the "Why Club" has already done much for liberal discussion on the Hill.

(This is an ad for Stags) For a Party For a Party With a Good Crowd Where You Will Enjoy to Dance Come to You solved the campus traffic problem, so you should be able to do something about conditions at the "free" (for all) midweek Union dances. -W. A. D. This Week-End Only But I can solve the problem, if you can't. Here is my plan to make the midwife dance something more than stag parties: Charge each stag ten cents admission. Admit couples free. Do not charge. Could someone be thought of could be smiser? VARSITY DANCE Lowest Prices on Drugs and Sundries $1.00 I must admit, however, that the idea of dividing the proceeds among the participants should think it is a good one. Such a plan still allows the "free" element, essential to the midweek dances, to be maintained, and would stay in the hands of those who attended, and not go to the management. What could be more demoralizing? Tomorrow with Arlie Simmonds Playing The plan is economically sound. The plan's economics will be the proceeds, and the greater the stimulus to bring dates, more couples that attend the better the parties, the better will be the party. The good old variety dance economics have wide reach. --ticket to take his date to the Spring Formal. Stags $1.25 Send the Daily Kansan home. If it's advertised — We have it 801 Mass.
