CONDITIONS IN DENMARK
It appears, although appearances cannot always be trusted, that one of the large political parties on the Hill is to hibernate during the coming election. Perhaps it will. Economically, what will this mean? If the big houses fitted they had things pretty well "buttoned up" and that a nomination must an office, might they not "stick" a candidate almost any amount for the privilege of running for office? Theoretically, $8 and $10 are paid by aspirants after offices, and $1 by members of the political party—for the fun of going to meetings, possibly—the whole fund to cover expenses. Only the keepers of the books know how closely this system is adhered to. There were days when it cost a man from $50 on up to run for a really big office, such as editor of the Jayhawker. Now the Jayhawker has been dragged out of politics. When a political party sponsors the removal of any office from politics the motives involve so many principles of diplomacy and laws of human nature that the real outcome is hard to evaluate. Possibly the Jayhawker was removed from politics so the best man would always get the office.
Anyway, when Hamlet said there was "something rotten in Denmark" he had never been around a college campus during elections.
THE MEXICAN SITUATION
With the concentration of a number of United States troops and fighting planes on the border, the Mexican situation is beginning to assume a more serious aspect. This move by the United States indicates that the nation is prepared to take any such step it seems necessary to a successful and immediate smothering of the revolution.
This definite action by the United States shows clearly that the government views the Mexican revolution as one of national interest and concern. That should American lives and property be endangered and the balance of power be turned against the Mexican government, the United States will regard it as her duty to aid in determining which faction shall control the affairs of Mexico; and the United States still considers herself the dictator of the western hemisphere. And herein lies the danger. Other nations, who have interests in Mexico, may challenge the source of this autocratic rule. They may again be so rude as to inquire the exact force of the Monroe Doctrine. Perhaps they would even question motives!
The situation is not an easy one. Other nations have citizens and property to be protected. Is it for the United States to tell them they must keep "hands off," to move while others with equal rights, are told to stand and let us play the game? The United States has a difficult role to
play and it may be even more serious. Each move she makes will be jealously and exaggerally watched. The country is not loved by every nation and how it uses its strength and calculates its position will be viewed from the eyes of nations far beyond its shores. It is to be hoped the United States acts wisely. A false move could not more than all Mexico is worth.
FITTED FOR COLLEGE?
Now arises the question of whether the average college student is fitted by previous experience and training to gain a liberal education in the institutions of higher learning. A Kansas City, Mo., mother states that while visiting a sociology class at the University of Missouri with her daughter recently, she found certain things were being taught which she considered inappropriate.
All of which might seem to indicate she felt her daughter incapable of thinking for herself. For, if her daughter were capable of forming her own opinions, she should not accept or reject the professor's idea? On the other hand, the philosophy of the mother may be that these certain things being taught were unessential to an interpretation of the significance of life. Still a third thought may have prompted her remark. She may have felt that the sociology professor's teachings were sacred to the home, and, if spoken of at all, should be the subject of private conversation between mother and daughter or father and son.
What, then, is a liberal education? Certainly if it fails to present to the student certain aspects that set his mind to functioning, it is falling short of its goal. Its chief purpose is to fit the student to live a life of service to himself and others. In order to do so, he must have the ability to think and plan his actions. A liberal education will equip the student to think, and the stimulus needed to set the mind in action is a statement somewhat different from the conventional.
HOOVER'S FARM RELIEF
President Hoover has called a special session of Congress to meet or April 15, 1929, for the purpose of carrying out Republican campaign pledges on farm relief and the tariff. In his proclamation summoning the extra session he reviewed the statement made in his inaugural address that this administration cannot perpone action on these two vital questions.
The Republican farm relief plank in 1928 was identical in writing with the corresponding plank of the Republican platform in 1924. The pledge were given by a party during whose administration an almost continuous stream of farm relief measures has been enacted, none of which, however, has in any way adequately or materially relieved the situation.
The problem has been very definitely put up to Mr. Hoover. If this administration fails to present a plan which will open a way toward settling the problem agricultural interests will repudiate the party in power at the next election. President Hoover evenizes a willingness to assume responsibility for a definite program, which includes an adequate tariff, cheaper waterway transportation to the seaboard, and federal-financed, farm-owned, farmer-controlled stabilization corporations.
The first and third sections of the program lend themselves to immediate enactment into laws which will have quickly determined effect upon the agriculture of the country. Soon it may be seen whether the efficient engineer and capable business man has agricultural foreseen.

All Speed Records Broken: New Nebula Has Fastest Known Motion in Universe
Pandemon, Calif.—The family of a motion in the universe has been found here, in a spiral nebula that appears to be moving away from the earth with a speed of 2.348 miles a second. This has been determined by Dr. Teresa M. Chandler of the observatory, with the aid of photographs of the body's spectrum modeled on the world. The nebula can only be observed with the aid of a large telescope, and is known as N.A.C. 7619, its number in the new general catalogue of such objects. Doctor Humanson's work has also shown that the nebula is at the heart of this system, and not merely a point of departure from it which affects the astronomer's photography plant now been travelled.

"OLD IRONSIDES"
The historic frigate Constitution will be ready for sea again some time this year. The old ship, which first slid down the ways 120 years ago, is now a museum contributed by school children and through the cale of the well-known picture of the craft. She will then he preserve for portery, both as a reminder to America's great naval heritage in her boating museum of historic exhibits.
Just a century ago, "Old Ironside," was saved largely through the influence of the famous poem by Oliver Goldsmith, who contributed funds for the present reconditioning know of American's most famous warship chiefly through its off-recited lines. Many early ships were designed to spect the ship in person, for the Constitution, when rebuilt will be the ports of the United States and in the cities of New York and Boston to the larger cities about the Mississippi and other navigable streams.

CRIBRING
An interesting survey covered conducted at a leading university to determine the emotional and mental factors that help students get away with it. dishews the fact that half of the number studied fell below the average college intelligence, while the majority belonged in the upper-middle or psychological introverts.
An intelligent student dislikes cribbing and a wistful student seems it is crobbing by itself. An intelligent studentcribbing is by no means so strong a matter as it seems; and that offer all such petty dishonesty foods and games to a student, but himself. Obviously the confirmed criberd might better be digging up his college education from his college education, for in a student studies sufficiently he need not crib and likewise the fact that he does not study sufficiently that he does not study sufficiently. There never can be a plausible excuse for cheating in exams for ample grades, or for failing in the normally indulgent student funds himself unexpectedly and unreasonably, nor for his average will not suffer abnormally.
The fact that half of the students studied in the survey fell below the average college intelligence should have much significance for the student who condones occasional cribbing in which low intelligence is much the reason of cribbing as it is the cause. Cribbling certainly has that tendency.

"The persons who stand up for the college have ignored the question of whether a college education actually involves teaching about the moral importance of going to school and the numerous benefits derived from a higher education, but not necessarily in the job. They do not take into consideration that the majority of young people go to college with the purpose for their education, but themselves for life's work. But they are not able to find work if the present system keeps on. I do not believe that any one can say that we are better off of education at the present time."

Every second light travels 196,000 miles and every night about 3 billion miles.
The method used for measuring the motion of the pollen depends on the length of a cingible bell, as on a train or fire-cup cinguis, is moving rapidly towards a screen, the bell sounds of a higher frequency, and it rapidly moves away. It is due to the fact that when the bell is coincident with the screen together and the result in the same if the waves over shorter in length cause their bounce waves are spread out and even longer. The looper the sound waves, the beeper the bounce waves, the higher pitch.
A similar effect is observed with light. When the light from a star that is rapidly moving from the earth into space is blocked by another which analyzes light, it is also found to be of a lower pitch, or more reddish than from the same star if it remained at the same distance from the earth. This phenomenon is a displacement of the dark line crossing the star's spectrum. A shifting of the lines from their proper places towards the red end indicates that the star is receding, and a shift to blue indicates
In the case of the nebula N, G. C. 7519, Doctor Humman found that the lines showed a married shift to the red. The shift was as much as would be caused by a motion away from the center of the nebula or about 380 million miles, every second.
That it may not be a true motion of the nodals with respect to the earth, however, is shown by the researchers at Harvard's colleagues. It was Doctor Habble who first proved that the spiral obelite are independent of Earth's gravity system of which our own air, as well as all the stars we see in the sky, is part. He has own used the distance of all the stars he sees in the sky, and found their moons. The farther they are, the more rapidly they seem to be moving. All are moving stars and the spectral lines of all of them are red. Doctor Habble has not measured the distance of N. G. C. 6791, but judging by the relation between about 25 million light years from us its apparent motion in the fastest of any known nodal, taking the speed of light is about 300 miles. V. M. Slipper, of the Lowell observatory at Highgate, Arizona, found to be reaching at the rate of 148
At least part of the great apparent speed may be due to the stricter laws of physics. In the Dutch physician, De Sitter, Like Einstein, he has suggested that space is curved, something like the surface of a sphere. Thus, as we view distant would cause an apparent flowing downs of the light waves. He also suggests that there is a definite tendency of material bodies to move in their own parts, according for the great motions.

Dear Hugh:
A crazy man in Chicago was found to have three wives. The other day he had a nudid interval and committed suicide.
Now the three wives are fighting over the possession of his body. All of which substantiate Fruity Bruth's claim that he is not obligated in picking out a man.
The new mayor of Ponce City, Oklahoma, won his election on a platform demanding "higher Costa Rican standards." He was still an issue, but after Al Smith's recent unfortunate visit, he was afraid to climb the plank. There is no honesty in politics.

If all the mid-sister funnels could be placed end-to-end it would not make much difference, as they must at most of their time step away way up.
And consider, dear Reader, that this column was written more on less strain than of listening to corn husks. It can be compared to "Some of These Days" on a portable photograph with a worn-out needle. Greater worry than this may not mean a greater need.
