THURSDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1920 ACTION ON TRAFFIC Again, the Men's Student Council has acted, and this time we have a new traffic bill going into effect. For some time conditions on the Hill have been an important issue facing the administration. Consequently the council made an investigation, drew up a bill, and it was passed. Whether the bill will be successful, especially in regard to the speeding during and between classes, is now a matter of enforcement. No doubt the present officer can enforce the rules in regard to parking, but can he catch the speed fields and then prove they are guilty? This is where the trouble will come in. A motorcycle policeman would be the best solution for this problem, and may turn out to be the only possible way in which the speeding automobiles may be apprehended. The Thoughtful Freshman says coming up on the Hill in the fog the other morning made him feel like Rip Van Winkle, for all of the well known buildings had disappeared. At any rate, the Men's Student Council has not neglected its duty. It should be commended for the action taken in this matter. If Scotty can enforce the law, the bill ought to be effective. We soon shall see. Judge Ben B. Lindsey has been debarred by political enemies. The man who made the Denver juvenile court famous for its success and outstanding qualities must suffer at the hands of those who grasp the value of money and power before they gasp the value of truth and righteousness. The fact that he has saved many youths headed down the road of crime seems to mean nothing, but the fact that he has kept from the grappling hands of some uninteruptuous pupils a few fees for defense in time of need means very much. ANOTHER MARTYR He is charged with accepting a bribe. This "bribe" was a gift from a grateful mother, a gift approved by a court before Judge Lindsey accepted it. The thing is preposterous and shows that politicians have once more captured the scalp of an opponent. Lindsey used his court to practice views which have been proven practical even though they were a bit ahead of modern day custom and thought. Like the early Christians, he was a martyr to what he thought was right and fell before the overwhelming odds of Romans seeking a victim. Judge Lindsey has a fine record over the past year. In the course of making this record he made these enemies who have taken advantage of a deed that was performed with only the thought of the honor that he preached, at heart. He has helped many during the course of his career, often without pay, showing a spirit that should be more manifest among men of all professions. County Club meetings saved us the trouble of ploughing through the directory to see if we had missed anybody from the old home town. WHAT WILL THEY DO? Now that the county club concession has been held, the work that has been done by a few persons comes to an end. These persons, who are on the general county club committee, have planned, organized, and worked many weeks in order to accomplish their purpose, but now the responsibility passes from their hands into those of the individual counties. What will they do? If the persons in the different colleges would only stop and think how much depends upon them, they would take their duties seriously, and prove themselves worthy of the confidence placed in them. Their task is a worthy one, and if completed will do much good not only for the University but for the high school students. Whether it is a K. U. moving picture, a banquet, a high school chapel exercise with a noted K. U. man giving an address, or a window display, it will create interest in universities in general, and tend to make high school students desire to attend a higher institution of learning. Should you lose your heel in front of the law building, be nonchalant and step out of your slipper, advises the Sophisticated Sophomore. HELPING OURSELVES The decision to turn the proceeds of the Christmas candle sale over to the permanent student loan fund shows a fine appreciation of values on the committee's part. Each increase of this fund means a step toward independence from outside sources of financing ourselves. Helping ourselves instead of waiting for state support or gifts of wealthy individuals not only is better training in the field of independence but gives us a bond of cheer school feeling. When you are approached for your contribution to the Christmas cake fund, don't neglect to make some donation, no matter how small. Ten cents from every student is better than a dollar from every tenth student because it will make us all feel that we have some small part in the making of our school a live institution. "Japanese Decorate Two American Civil Engineers," says a Kansan headline. What did the engineers do to their campus? THE SCHOOL PANIC There seems to have been a sort of mild, general panic started by, or simultaneously with, the Carnegie football investigation concerning the efficiency of our American schools of all kinds. Articles questioning the results produced by schools, from the nursery school to the most venerable college, have been appearing in ever-increasing numbers. The public is gradually waking up to the fact that ambitious educators have been separating them from their money for the establishment of all manner of educational experiments, and now that docile public is beginning to worry about whether these new methods have played with the education of their young. They are making a run on the bank of education to rescue their children while Silk Robes--- —in all the new colors and patterns $7.50 to $12.50 *tajamas---* the new lounging style, broadclothes and bright patterns $4 to $6 Holiday Boxed Neckties CARLS there is yet time. They will investi gate the facts later. The falling off of college enrollment is one of the most noteworthy supposed signs of failure in this type of institution. Following the war, college enrollment increased by leaps, a natural result of the government's offer of an education to soldiers whose absence took them away from school or relieved them of jobs through incapacity, and also of the nation's increased prosperity. Ex-soldiers have all finished now. The saturation point in college attendance has been practically reached, but this does not mean the efficiency of the colleges has decreased. An investigation won't hurt anything, anyway. Will Coolidge run? This is the question being asked by numerous political observers, in view of the recent move to draft Calvin Coolidge to make the race next year for the United States senate. SENATOR COOLIDGE? Friends of the former president, who are Massachusetts Republicans, are desirous of inducing him to come back into national politics, to succeed Senator Frederick H. Gillett, who has announced that he will retire at the end of his present term. However, those promoting this movement are rather skeptical of its success, believing that Mr. Coolidge might not agree so readily to eliminating himself as a possible candidate for the presidency, if conditions should appear favorable for him in 1932. On the other hand assertions, which have been denied by the President's friends, have been made that the Hoover administration is overly eager to get Mr. Coolidge into the senatorial race to eliminate him as a possible presidential candidate in 1922. At any rate, it will be interesting to watch the developments. Whether Mr. Coolidge will listen to the pleas of his friend and "throw his hat in the ring" for the senatorial race, or whether he will decide to wait and run for the presidency, remains to be seen. Perhaps he will do neither and with the same smilliness and stern expression on his face will may: "I do not choose to run."

Her 8-year-old brother, David, served as a juror in the painting panels and the various family pet poses for many of the animal characters. The artist, somewhat of a fairy type herself, blightedly admits that she was her own model for the choreography in the many murals she has painted. It was during her senior year here that Miss Whitney designed "The Campus Map" which is enclosed in a glass case and mounted on Frasher hall. This copyrighted pictorial representation of the various buildings and roads of the K. U. campus was designed on a 1926 Homecoming dress.
