FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1929 PADLOCKS FOR ALL Do students who are enrolled in gymnastics courses realize that a suit of clothes is worth three ounces of iron? Every year numerous cases of theft from lockers are reported to the athletic department, just because students carelessly failed to protect themselves against robbery. The most economical and satisfactory method of curbing this discovery is to buy a padlock and use it. It is your only assurance that you will find your locker untouched when you return to it. When the new side walk by the museum was put in, it looked as if the laws might have a monopoly on front review seats; but from the aggregation to be found at Snow Hall daily, it looks very much as if there were still competition in the field. AND THEREBY HANGS A TALE One day a curly-headed kid on bicycle stopped beside him. An old man was mowing a lawn. The grass was short, but he didn't seem to mind, for he cut if often. That was his business. He was good it his business—giving the self-propelled mower with a careful hand and watchful eye. He seemed to be always mowing. He evidently didn't like it; he rested often, and would burrow along when students passed. "Say, mister, you sure mow this lawn a lot. Is that all you geta do?" The old man gave a start. He looked towards the University. "Yes," he said quietly, "this is all." "Gee," he said wistfully, half looking at the messy table. "That's all I do." He giggled, feeling a sort of triumph at his repartee. The kid felt embarrassed. He was old enough to know that he had said something that troubled the old man. The child was silent. A couple of students were passive. The old man hugged, too. "You're lucky, son, may I if'd a gone, instead of foolin' round, I could mow lawns when I wanted to instead of havin' to do it. Why, son, if I"be stopped and wiped his shaggy brown. He seemed tired. "Well, I gotta go to work. So long." He got up and started his machine. The motor sputtered, then went. The old man muttered and went on his way; the boy went laggging on to school. Spend a pleasant evening at home occasionally and listen to the radio—try to sell you everything from radio batteries to red flannels! THE PRINCE SPEAKS The Prince of Wales "regards the sanctity of marriage so seriously that he will not be thrust into a marriage of convenience." Here is a prince that knows his own mind and intends to follow it. It is unusual for a prince to be thirty-five years old and unmarried. It is unusual for a prince to take the matter of his marriage entirely into his own hands. An arranged marriage would have taken care of the situation with less delay and more peace of mind; whereas now the English people wonder what is going to become of the present prince who will be the next ruler of the British Empire. A marriage of convenience he will not tolerate. But why worry? The prince has fallen in other ways, perhaps he will finally fall in love. NOT ONLY HONORARY Publications are that the Owl Society may become useful as well as honoury. Too long this organisation of junior men has existed with the chief function of affording another means of getting one's picture in the Jawahher and another activity to place after one's name in the senior section. Last year the society performed a few useful and appreciated services, and it is well not to lose sight of that fact. But this year the society has passed a resolution placing the Owls at the disposal of the Chancellor, the dean of women the dea nof women, the alumni secretary, and the men's student council in order to carry out supervised services of the school. This unprecedented step beats hearty endorsement. The executives of the school have had legislative powers but have lacked a reliable instrument of enforcement. The resolution passed, this instrument seems provided. It is now up to the Owl Society to carry out the good intentions it has expressed. While the Prince of Wales denies now that he'll marry for convenience we are not worried. He's fallen so much that we don't doubt that he'll tumble hard eventually. IF YOU HAVE TEARS— Life just seems to be one big failure for him. Poor Mr. Sinchir? It all began years ago when he failed to secure two hours' credit in pharmacy at the University of Kansas. Since then he failed to pat across an oil sealand, briake a jury. Upon his latest defeat, failure to secure pardon from his present abode, he was just too exasperated for words. "Outrageous!" he exclaimed. Outrageous that justice should take its course? Or outrageous prescriptions given to unsuspecting prisoners? Poor prisoners, poor dear Mr. Sinchir. Snap courses usually make student; snap out of it before the semester closes. Harry Sinclair wants justice and we are glad to hear that he has been getting a few months of it.

Must Have Been Upperclassmen Two girls were going to the library Thursday evening about 9 o'clock. Their conversation was about dates.

MARCELLA STERLING. President. Americans Have Wasted Resources but Accomplished Much, Sen. Couzens Says Washington, D. C. "Considering the resources with which nature has endowed their land, have Americans made the most of their opportunities." Senator James Coontz thoughtfully repeated the question raised by Prof. T. E. Gregory, the English economist, who answers his own query in the negative—who, while admitting that we fairly roll in wealth, would be a far greater people if we had intellectually more intelligence. For whenever our national development may be worth, the Detroit Mayor must stand in it—from the day when, a young man, he invested his first few thousand of savings to finance industry research, which he spent in nursing the flivver industry to a billion-dollar rating, and head of the state's powerful interstate commerce committee and the member of either house or congress. Senator Couzens ought to be able to qualify as an authority on this subject, if any American can. "It all depends," said the senator finally, "on our ideal. "In a strictly material sense, an nationally speaking, it seems to me that we have positioned our business good access in our stewardship of America's natural resource." True, undoubtedly we have waste a great deal for which we blame “Still, we have not buried our talents. On the contrary, we have dug them up at a great rate and put them into circulation. No one can resist. We have not invariably expended it to the best advantage, at least we "Material success, however," continued the Michigan law-maker, is not the only essential to national greatness. We are the most prosperous people in history, as a whole. The people are in dividually greaterous. "Capitalism, to which we seem to be committed, makes the worker do more than the worker does." Thus capitalism itself, by creating such a situation, assumes responsibility for providing well-paid, employment—not underpaid or merely "Unemployment is a blot on our civilization. "I would feel deeply discouraged if I made a mistake that we have made a start in the right direction and I consider it the greatest umph of the Food industries that we know." If it shirks this responsibility, my opinion is that it cannot survive as a system. To what extent has prohibition added to American industrial efficiency? "To a marked extent," replied the Wolverine legislator promptly—and unexpectedly, for Senator Cozens in a wet. Indecid, in the next breath, he said so. "Although I am against prohibition," he observed, "there is no doubt that it has reduced drinking." "At all events," went the aid rein- gion solen, "prohibition did促 drinking and correspondingly in reased industrial efficiency.

"Whether or not prohibition is accepted, it matters." As Axel moral proposition one has a right to tell me what I can or can not do, in a matter which concerns "The they and prohibition was an economic issue." I said it was a moral issue—and no it is, whatever they said. "Yes, prohibition has increased its utrial efficiency—but it is very ineral." Campus Opinion --to be a small wonder that three-together of the student body have secured Union Building exceptions to the usual building rules, bodies, bed and room board. In Editor's Note—The fact that only one-fourth of the student body paid their Memorial Union fee and that there are demands that for certain definite reasons the project is not receiving support, these reasons are set forth in the following letter written by a student. Other opinions doubtless will be taken into account in Kansas campus opinion column layout; comment on this issue issues facing the University. No university will be printed unless by request, but the authors must be known by all students. No student will not be accepted. Be brief.

The Union Building is used by a small portion of the students and those who do use it fail to recognize the greater functions of the building. While this is probably due to the fact that not informed themselves, it is true. Probably another reason students do not contribute more to the support of the project is that many of us are unaware that our alumni presented the building with the stadium to the Campus Police dead; and we resent having forced upon us the "privilege" of completing which we did not instigate and plan. One student was heard to remark at enrollment time, "I can well afford to pay my Union Building fee, but I resent having to do that." The exchequer is low at the be gimming of school. Not it possible that if all the student activities and fee requests would be content to be held by a local authority, we secure more voluntary contributions and consequently more money? L. B. Science Service Peak in Russia Found to Be One of Hiahest Finsterwider, a member of the Soviet-German expedition to Pamir, reading that Peak Diorho was on a mountain in the Union of Socialist Soviet Repellits. Its height is computed by 7,495 meters or about 24,483 km². Park Garmo lies among the wild and inaccessible summits of the Pamir Mountains. Its heights have been reached by amputated human being. Sheaffer Pens and Pencils $3.50 to $10.00 Lifetime Sheaffer's $8.50 to $10.00 No mountain on this side of the world exceeds Peak Garmo in height. McKinley, in only 20,900 feet in elevation, has a peak that is taller than peak Rock, but peak Rock reaches it, but 25,000 feet-Peak Garmo is also taller than any of the peaks in the Himalayas; and even if they be taller are some of the peaks in the Himalayas and other of the tails.
