BE SCOTCH
This week the annual sale of tuberculosis scabs is being made on this campus and the committee hopes to dispose of 40,000, that is, 40 to each student. A worthy cause demands the support as well as the attention and interest of the students.
Tables have been placed in halls on the campus so often that students have become accustomed to seeing a young woman or man seated at them surrounded by piles of papers and moulding to friends as they pass by. But the present drive has more than a campus scope, as did the Red Cross Roll Call of a few weeks ago. It is based upon a real need; its aim is to relieve those who suffer from a dread disease as well as obtain and publish educational health matter.
Now that Christmas is drawing near and with it the gaily colored symbols of the season, it is well to be proverbially South. Kill two birds with one stone. First spread cheer and goodwill by stamping your Christmas cards and packages with gaily colored ones, and second, support a cause for promoting good health in your country and your world.

DEFEATING COUNTY CLUBS
DEFEATING COUNTY CLUBS
Takes of a fact campus life, "hot parties," and good drinks flow from the mouths of too many students when they return to their homes at Christmas time. These thoughtless ones fail to mention the noble things about the University—instead they spend their time telling their friends about the good times that they have had or imagines they have had at school. They wish to leave a collegiate impression among the tame home-town social sets—and they did. Many are too willing to believe that college is one continual round of whopee parties and dates. And, instead of trying to destroy these false notions, careless students only cultivate them by telling vividly magnified stories of a fast social life—one-half of which have been hatched in the brains of narrators to let the home-town fellows know that they are "regular guys" at school.
County clubs cannot hope to succeed when students spread such idle and erroneous possip at home. They defeat the purpose of the clubs which they have pledged themselves to support. Sincere young people who wish to go to college lose faith in the school. Parents hear some of the stories and discourage thoughts of a higher education among their children. Thus, a few silly, irresponsible, "Tah-rah" Jaywalkers destroy much of the influence of the clubs and bring discredit upon themselves, their fellow-students, and the University.
Truth is the only cure for this evil. Students should resolve to leave a truthful impression of college among their friends at vacation time. It is only fair to themselves and to
the university for them to be, bour-
hest. And, if they will do this, it will
be an invaluable aid to the county
clubs in their efforts to encourage
high school graduates to go on to
school.
The Thoughtful Freshman suggests that professors who insist upon holding classes late start on time so that there will be no necessity for lec-uring after the whirl blows.
IT WOULD BE "USELESS"
International debates usually draw large crowds at the University. The clash of the staid and formal American debate with the whimily amusing and usually more or less liltical style of the English at least is entertaining. The debate tonight between University debaters and the visitors from Oxford promises to be of the same type.
Considering the fact that the winner of the recent Campus Problem speaking contest is a member of the University team, it is to be hoped that the debate tonight will be something more than an exhibition of horseplay, such as was the case on the former occasion when a University debater sought to indulge in wizcraft. If the local debaters attempt to meet the visitors on their own ground they are apt to get the worst of it.
TRICK WEDDINGS
Companionate marriages are back numbers to be laughed at along with act year's jazz hits and short skirts. The latest thing in matrimonial ceremonies is the airplane wedding in which the contracting parties take the grand parachute heap together following the reading of the vowes up in the air. Ah yes, this first type has very interesting significance to be sure. But it won't be long until the great significance of the airplane weddings is lost in favor of something new and different in wedding stants.
By next year no doubt the young couple who so metodramatically leaped into the difficulties of marriage together from an airplane will be free of entanglements and ready to choose other partners suitable for even more spectacular weddings. Perhaps next time it will be in the form of a submarine wedding, following the ceremony of which they will don diner's suits and rise together to the surface of the ocean, attended by a school of fish.
Marriage is only a show anyway, these participants will tell you. The wedding is a "big kick," particularly if it is "different," but after that things grow monotonous and anybody would be a fool to stick in such a rut. If you can manage to think out a singularly striking type of wedding, you will get a lot of publicity, and the excitement is great until somebody comes along with a newer idea. And conducted that way, a show is about all marriage is.

WHAT OF HOBO DAY?
It is rumored that the University administration is taking steps that may ultimately lead to the adoption of Hobo Day more than once. We have learned rumors about every year after Hobo Day, and Hobo Day has lived on. But this year it seems a little more certain that definite action may be taken. It seems that the administration is conducting an investigation among members of the faculty to determine the state of disturbance existing during this year's event. The next meeting of the University Senate may bring the matter to the fore.
It is well that the matter should be discussed at this time, before action is taken. The Kannan feels that the spirit which has brought Hobo Day into being is apt to be expressed in a more violent manner if Hobo Day is abolished. But there must be other views. The Campus opinion column welcomes them.
WHAT OF HOBO DAY?
“French for Submarines,” reads a Kansas headline. Now all our ambitions for a submarine trip are rushed for we just cannot speak French.
A bill tending to "put teeth" into regulations regarding parking on the University campus appeared this week in official publication to go into effect at once. But, apparently if the university traffic problem is regarded as a whole, the measure has but rubber teeth.
RUBBER TEETH
Restrictions on the campus parking problem are necessary and vital to the Hill situation. Yet, really to handle the situation the student councils should consider speeding, wrong parking and safety zones for the pedestrian. Instead we find no mention of anything outside of a range of fine penalties for failure to obtain licences or to adhere to regulations of when and where the student can park his car.
"Scotty," as campus officer has his problems. He suspected early in the year that some measures should be taken to restrict certain narrow passages on the campus to one-way drives. He, like all mortals, can be at but one of the main intersections at one time; whereas there are three on the campus—one by Fraser and Green halls, one at the intersection of the Mississippi street drive and the third where the street can tracks cross the Campus drive. A full measure, with adequate enforcement provisions over the speed

The reason of good cheer is at hand for the postal employees. The Christmas mailing season is drawing near.
A recent survey at the University of Oklahoma indicated that students spend, on the average, 26 cents a day for meals. The analysis was based on the cash register sips furnished by the Student Union cafeteria for two breakfasts, two noon meals, and three lunch meals. A 1,164 meal tickets. The average cost of breakfast was found to be 18 cents; of the noon meal, 42 cents; and of the lunch meal, 90 cents.

Christmas
and Gifts that Give REAL Value
GRADUALLY, in this country, we are learning how to give, at Christmas. We have learned to discriminate between the useless, futile and wasteful gifts and those which perpetuate us in the hearts and the gratitude of those we love.
This store takes the lead, we believe, in just such gifts as this. And they are without number. You will always find something for everybody, and at prices which you shall decide yourself.
