NEW MOON
"New Moon," the prize winning W. S, G, A, comedy written and directed by George Callahan and Roland Reevoth, is a clever, well produced show. Perhaps the second and third scenes present the strongest parts of the show both in the music and acting. The two choruses, which are smaller in number than usual, are excellently trained and well contained.
The staging and setting impress one as being better than the music which seems to lack passion and the usual catchiness of musical comedies. However, "New Moon" as a whole is probably the best comedy which has been produced on the campus for some years.
HOLY WEEK
Last Sunday, Palm Sunday, was the day which commemorated the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem and entry of the initial day of Holy Week. The days of this week are significant in the last week of Christ's life before the crucifixion. The cursing of the fig tree, symbolise in its darkness of the Jewish teachers and priests at that time, and the cleansing of the temple, defiled by the money-lenders, were His acts of Monday. Passing the fig tree, then withered, Tuesday morning, Jesus used the incident in promising that prayers should be answered. Wednesday is the day of silence and it is presumed that He spent the day in prayer. On Thursday, Jesus had the Last Supper with His disciples. Good Friday saw the day of his trial and the condensation to carry His Cross to His Crucifixion, Saturday, as Christian lay in the semelembra, was a day of darkness and glorm. Easter Sunday, the third day on which Christ rose from the tombs, gives back hope to the world.
The history of Holy Week, culminating as it does the Lenten season, is most beautiful in its deepening tragedy and final triumph of hope. To students of the University of Kansas the Easter vacation from school should have a deeper meaning than the mere cessation of classes. Truly, Easter Sunday is a joyous day, but in its highest aspect this joy must have an intrinsic foundation in the realization of the real meaning of the day. To those who have this understanding, this Easter will bring a strengthening of eternal hope.
TAXPAYERS. HOWL:
The last thing American citizens would want is a king, and yet pride in the government as an institution is an important part of the patriotic life of the country. Citizens who are familiar with marble only in banks and soda funnels experience a thrill of pride when they see a picture of the Capitol at Washington. The man whose highest social fling consists in playing dominos before his own fire shares the glory of a reception in the Blue Room. The representative to
Washington from Pumpkin Center veers a cutaway coat and silk hat and his township swell with possessive pride. This is Democracy.
It is very commendable of President Hoover to give up the Mayflower and send the presidential saddlehorses to the army; this action will save the people of the nation some thousands of dollars annually. The people, however, might rather pay the bill and have the knowledge that they are supporting their chief extenuated beneficiaries of the richest country in the world. A half million dollars is a cheap mouth price for pride.
Revolt is again flaring in an China and as always it is a fight between the North and the South. As man as a thousand or even 1500 years ago China began roughly to take on boundary distinctions under the military rulers who periodically came in from the North and forced their rule of the native people. However, as time goes on it begins to appear more and more certain that the boundary distinctions thus established were a mistake for China is divided as the United States was some years ago divided into a North and a South The North with the lead of the government at Nanking is conservative and the South with Canton as the leading city is radical. Revolts constantly start in the South and move toward the North. During the Taipei rebellion, one of the bloodiest and most devastating wars in history, the revolutionists of the South removed the Northern rulers for a period. After the fall of the Manchu in 1912 the civil war that followed with the establishment of a republic were usually the result of the more radical influences of the South. Now again a new crisis has come about as the result of Nanking's efforts to make its authority real throughout the provices with an effort to force the various war bodes to recognize the central government and a refusal of the Southern leaders to recognize them.
CHINA'S SOLID SOUTH
If time runs anything it has certainly proved that North China and South China will not need for some time to come.
A NEW VIEW
The pessimists have been given a jolt by Dr. A. F. Woods, director of scientific work of the United States department of agriculture. He says that the taming of North America has been done largely by men of high character and that, although some mistakes have been made, they are not beyond correction. An proof of his statement he says that better forests can be planted now than ever grew wild; and that the fertility of depleted soils can be renewed to produce one hundred bushels of corn where ten grew in the days of our forefathers.
His statement would indicate that much practical wealth has been added to the country by the hand of science. With the present natural resources and an ever increasing knowledge of how to add to them in case of necessities should with reasonable care, have a food supply for sometime to come.
Doctor Wood's statement is appreciated for it relieves us of the responsibility of listening to the prosimists who have been telling us constantly that our country is being devastated rapidly without bothering to offer constructive suggestions.

Thus runs a common excuse when cub reporters are reprimanded for not citing the authority for the information given in their news stories; so it might be well for Insider to exonerate the authority is wanted in stories.
The reason is simply that reporters cannot be experts in all fields. When an author has a clear reader's entitlement, it is entitled to know whose opinion it is, so he may judge its relevance.

Cigaret Stubs and Matches Will Prove Harmless if New Methods Are Adopted
Washington.-Discarded cigarettes and matches will cause fewer fires if manufacturers adopt the methods of draping improvised by tests recently conducted at the United States Bureau of standards. Fire has statistics collected by the National Board of Fire Underwriters attribute about one-sixth of the property loss from known causes to matches and smoking. If the same ratio holds for the box from unkown sources, fire has statistics comparable to matches and smoking are responsible for a property loss year $10,000,000 per year. If some of the methods of draping matches and matches go out sooner after they

Campus Opinion
Editor Daily Kansas
Now showing at a local theater, "Napoleon's Barker." The management is to be very well commended for his leadership in appreciation of the faithful college students, who have patronized this theater, especially the history majors. Napoleon's stalled it seems that the picture is supposed not to be worth while. We have tried to make our movie 'copyright' only to we have paid to our exposition that we have paid to hear very perfect grammar, but to the display of high school drama.
After witnessing this film tableau, the writers find that the plot either is so plausible that self did not understand it or else it is simply hacker. We believe the book was written rather had in mind the acting out of a chrimoide, the meaning of which we read in *The Chronicle* as the creation of a complete paragraph in the story of Napoleon's life.

In a wonderful spirit of humanization a popular young movie actor has turned philanthropic. Jessi Clark, Holly Roeves and Jason Mason have teamed up to honor music and expressed his love and loyalty to it to the extent that he invited the band to perform and show off the picture in Kansas City was celebrated by Mac's land, which pleased the street in front of the theater on the sidewalk.
How good of him. How kind to invite the University hand to supply her with flowers, a nice K. u. band is gaining in fame. It may be that the Enuingham Brothers will nowadays invite Me and his band to play on the night of their circus and play a few Kowsis songs in front of the text which describes their pins-band, and the woman who sat snaker. Ifeties accepted the concert and also be clotted by such an offer from a circus. It might be appropriate for the contractor to mount a dry goods stand. They are also often

QUALITY LIFE INVESTMENT
Hundreds of cigarbutts were collected to determine what length is usually discarded unused cigars. Another throw his cigaraway with an inch and a quarter unburned, while less than two cent of the butts are smoked down.
Approximately 175,000 cigarette sticks are discarded every minute, and laboratory tests doubling as nearly as two times occur, a noticeable effect, indicated that from 50 to 50 per cent of the butts falling on readily combustible materials such as paper, wood or plastic used in the tests, would, with a slight wind blowing, cause fire. The percentage of ignitions varied with the burness of the grass and the wind speed.
Under actual conditions most cigarettes do not fall lighted on inflammable materials, but the $250,000,000 discount fire hazard. The government is particularly interested in the problem because of the vast losses caused by fires on forested forests, and public buildings, by earless smoke<sup>1</sup>. Ever 30,000 fires are believed to cause fires on the public and private farms of the country in 1927, the latest year for which statistics are available, causing the burning of more than a million acres with a loss of more than $80,000,000. So grant has been the public load that cigarette makers have been great at national forest hard to smoking during the forest fire season, and many large timber operators rigidly prohibit smokes in the woods by enforcing
By cooling all but the one-half inch neck to the head with the same white glass preparation used in the previous experiment, equipment were reduced, approximately one-third in laboratory tests. Production and import statistics indicate that 45,000 aircraft are used annually, or an average of 250,000 a minute. The match fire box hazed it particularly great because the aircraft is in the center of a pullover as in the image of the cigarette.
