CHARLES CURTIS
Kansans can be justly proud of Charles Curtis the new vice-president of the United States. Never before has a vice-president been so preeminently qualified for the position. For thirty-four years Charles Curtis has been in training for this work. He knows well all the traditions, and intricacies of our highest legislative body. As floor leader of the Republican party he knows personally the men with whom he must work. His years of experience in the house should be of invitable aid to the new president.
Curtis is noted for the thoroughness and ability with which he dispatches work. He is a recognized leader in movements for the betterment of government. How fitting that when Kansas was asked to contribute a vice-president she contributed her best,
"REHASH"
John Staindin did not pledge a fraternity the first year he was in college. He did not make such good grades that year he studied hard and puzzled everything out for himself. The second fall John found himself be pledged to a fraternity while a crowd of enthusiastic fraternity men stood around telling him what courses to take because the professor was easy or because the course was a "pipe" or because they had an "A" paper he could use.
John soon began to wonder why groups of students made it so difficult for their members really to learn anything for themselves. He was invited to use "A" rhetorical themes on the provenue that the teacher would not remember that the same themes had been handed in semi-anually for the past several years. John was urged to use books containing all the outside readings and class notes. He was allowed to use language textbooks which contained all the translations. In fact, John found that he did not have much school work to do at all. He merely went to class if nothing intervened.
Underneath it all, however, John was a little disappointed. He missed the "brite tushes" that he encountered with school work the first year. He wondered if the university teachers did not realize that from him at least, they were not getting original material, merely "reach". He wondered why they did not adopt the method of retaining all written work until the student graduated or had left school permanently. Why could not the teacher vary the courses a little each year so that "reach" material could not be used? Different textbooks might have been substituted and as for outside reading there was plenty of interesting material as yet unassigned. John knew the latter for a certainty because one day he had a chance to browse through the stacks of the library. He did not learn much that semester but managed to get good grades on his written work and by means of a little cribbing—he had learned how to do that, he received better grades than he did during his
first year. In the end John found himself in much the same predicament that countless other students living in both fraternity and nonfraternity groups found themselves. They had figured out practically nothing for themselves, everything had been just "rehashed."
COOLIDGE GOES HOME
After seven years of service for his country, Calvin Coolidge has returned to his home in Vermont. A news story from Washington announces that he worked at his desk until the last minute. While he was in office he became much attached to his work, and his feelings and thoughts when, he again became a private citizen must have been a mingling of sorrow, regret and joy—sorrow and regret at having to leave the things with which he had become familiar and joy at being again a private citizen.
The radio which brought a description of the inauguration to thousands of persons throughout the United States told that on the rear platform of the car which was to eary Coolidge home, he was all amzles, but down inside he felt a longing to be again leaning over his desk. His now famous words that he did not "choose" to run were those of a temperate man, a man who is able to end a good thing before he goes too far with it.
After Coolidge said goodbye to the radio audience from his private car, he probably felt as if he were leaving everything he knew well to go to some unknown region. He was glad to leave the office, but regretted that he had to do so.
A CONSISTENT JURY
The jury in the Hahn trial after deliberating fourteen hours failed to reach a decision. The jury deserves much credit, since at least it remained consistent to the end. The jury composed of a hotel clerk, two agents, two real estate dealers, a poster artist, a shirt-maker, a women's wear manufacturer, an upholsterer, an artist, an accountant, and a man who admitted he did nothing, were brought together to decide whether or not Mrs. Hahn deserved damages for the statement made by Sir Joseph Dueve involving the authenticity of her painting, "La Belle Ferromiere".
At the beginning of the trial the jury asserted it knew nothing about painting; it recognized its inability to decide on the authenticity of a picture that had baffled experts. As a body it remained consistent to this statement throughout the trial, although as individuals the members were forced to reach a decision. After the jury had been out eleven hours it sent back this note to the judge "May we render a verdict awarding the plaintiff a certain amount of money and state in the verdict we have a reasonable doubt in our minds to as whether the Iahn picture is a Da Vinci?" Reasonable doubts it was told, had nothing to do with civil causes.
After eight years of argument,
however, a consistent jury can not
end the case; nor can the judge's
statement that the case has already
cost the county $10,000. Mrs. Hahn
says she will fight eight more years
if necessary to prove her painting is
the original Dau Vinci. It will take
a more decisive, if a less consistent
jury, to finally settle the dispute.

Soaking and Squeezing Sore Fingers Declared
Liverpool.—The popular method of treating a pricked finger by squeezing it and seaking it in very hot water often has disastrous effects, Dr. K Kenmon declared in a recent address before the Liverpool Medical Institution. The unfortunate result of such treatment have often been gummeng and amputation. Hangmails, prickles and insect sites are frequently the starting points leading to loss of fingers or even hands and arms.
"Inside Stuff"
"The more educated lay people are all too ready to imagine that the thorn or needle has carried germs into the depths," stated Doctor Kennon, "so a vigorous squeeze initiates the treatment, to make the part blood and wash back the organism. A moment's thought would show that it would just as sensible to try to squeeze water out of wet socks without first removing the boots."

EDITORIAL COMMENT ON
"THE INNAUCRY ADDRESS
NEW YORK, U.S."
The promise between independent engineering judgment and due delinkation over the requirements of the DMA has been made by the makofee of the Hoover enlist, and the same compromise is evident at each level.
NEW YORK TIMES: "As a literary composition, President Hoover's inaugural address is somewhat dispassionate. He says in one passage a quacking of the spirit. It has no central animating theme which the speaker sought to get before the audience. It is a power of his administration. The whole makes something of the impression of a cross between one of Mr. Hoover's most passionate presidential message to congress."
CHICAGO TRIBUNE. — "It had been hoped that he (Mr. Hoover) would speak definitely upon the vexed question of farm relief and outline his position, but remarks under those heads to a brief statement that they would be dealt with at a special session of congress; and I would have centred the view of professional probabilities that the eighteenth amendment is the heart of the constitution. He emphasized it far above other subjects treated in his address.
CHICAGO DAILY NEWS: "The prohibition was treated by Mr. Roebens as merely a part of a great and intolerable violation for the too common frustration of justice, the showiness, high costs and uneven enforcement of other words ... prohibition has not been the only primary cause for the decline in the efficacy of the administration of justice."
Dangerous
WASHINGTON POST—"President Hower's inaugural address covers a great deal of ground and should be read more than once. Mr. Hower is the author of the book on the root of the problem of law enforcement. He makes an appeal to the law abiding citizens to desist from encouraging violations of the laws. This book clearly states, sinno, fail to bring fresh strength to the cause of law enforcement.
"Mr. Hoyer gives fresh encouragement to American business by putting on a show of enthusiasm in private enterprises. Foreign nations will be reassured by the presence of Mr. Hoyer's address in regard to world peace and the duty of the United States in defense."
"He has outlined a program of lofty endeavor and in his appeal for the support of his countrymen in trans- tensions, he criticizes he will not be disappointed."
For several years the student hospital has resided at its present location, and all of its provenance have been made in equipment but the fact that a house of patients is now housed in medical treatment year in and year out, with little noticeable improvement.
"A new student hospital at K. U."
Some morning we are going to wake up and read the above headline in the newspaper, but if you know or ever venture a gauss, but we hope it is not far off. This writer is of the opinion that it should be very soon, and we are backing him until long until our headline can be proudly displayed.
--of those who lost their lives in the great war; a new stadium building 10,000 people live at the base of Mt. Titre and the old one converted into curio establishment, but each year finds the old hospital to greet those who lost their lives.
NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE:
—The Imaginal address represents a twentieth century spirit of Americanism, renewing the Americanism of the 18th and 19th centuries. Our new standard is rooted in what they as did in earlier days. It sets standards which are rooted in the new as well as the old American faith.

This treatment actually spreads the organisms beneath the skin and further injures the tissues, thus promote a point where bacteria may multiply.
Antiseptic solutions, particularly the group of carbic acid compounds, are also a source of deletion damage, if used at all should be very weak. Germs cannot be killed on the body without dehydration or shock. Doctor Kennon reminded his audience. Furthermore, carbic acid compounds have an analgesic action on the fingers, and they can cause severe pain to give the patient a false sense of security and lead to delay in seeking medical attention. Also, it can mask inflammation and lead to infection if it is thus misleading to the physician.
Much worse than squeezing or over-strong antiseptic solutions is the hot fomentation of the wounds by applying the fingers loweres the resistance to infection and the intense heat only increases the pain and tenderness. A sore finger should be kept in a warm, dry area until further injury by a throble or celluloid guard, Doctor Kennised answer.
Under the circumstances I am surprised that the attendants have not only taught us how to only through a profound loyalty that Doctor Cannoteson and his assistant go about their duties in a cheerful way, but also how much more they are connected to the University the hospital is doing wonders and will doublest continue to do so, but how much more important they are to other schools. Whether the University can afford it or not makes little difference. I think, as the health of an individual is greater than a few dollars, C. M. B.

In the course of human events, inoar as these effects *stresses* the students it will behove them to certain time limits which have been so kindly set forth by the student hospital. In other words no patient can be allowed to be left alone he does so between the hours of nine to twelve in the morning or two to three in the evening, but he will be unable to receive treatment at the hospital unless he has the faculty to convince the "powers" that his case is genuine.
But then the student need not be unduly discouraged if he wishes to miss his classes for the administratives; but if you are willing to take care of him during those hours when he should be sleeping through some dry lecture on the Hill. It is with the greentest of men that will give him an excused absence.
The criticism is mainly this. The hospital authorities insist that the student come in for treatment as soon as possible, but a such schedule of hours that it is practically impossible for him to make if his classes interfere. If the student is so unfamiliar with the situation it is even more complicated than ever. Some provisions should be made to take care of students when they need it. For example, the attention for some of them until the condition becomes complicated. One of the best ways to do this it would seem would be to set up more senior teachers.

GIFTS FOR EDUCATION
--in Union Building
Specialized 'knowledge' is not frowned on in what has been done. We are confident that its traceable to persons who have centered their efforts on proficiency in a particular line of work. Yet it is clear that our faculty's best qualified for expert service in a branch of engineering, surgery, law, or medicine must have a broad acquaintance with the liberal arts. Otherwise specialization tends to become one-sided and narrow.
No analysis of the two immense grifts is adequate that does not note the commandable and gratifying features of training. The hold in training youth for careers fruited in lasting fashion, but the need to make it possible might be powdered by philanthropists. Are not money contributions tending overmount in the direction of colleges and universities? Are beautiful endowments ? . . . Nevertheless, the needs and programs of another sort of learning which have become a vital character, deserve serious attention.

Just for a little touch of local color — in editing class several students were debating just what kind of a story the kids would tell, a story concerning a wealthy widow. It was suggested that Wealthy Widow be placed on the top deck. Our student wrote:
"Wealthy Widow won't fit in the ten deck."
And from the more remote part of the room came the loud, piercing alarm:
"Say, buddy, a wealthy widow will fit any place?"
And he was right.

FORGETTORIES
The ability to forget for a long time has been recognized as a valuable asset for a college student. The vast disposition problem is the remaining facts and the array of facts given out by our敦 instructors makes a forgetting mechanism very necessary for the student. And in one way or another, this ability of ridding the himself of memorizing clutterage.
The prevalent method of forgetting, however, is a harmful one. The student knows the various facts into his mind and rereads them to furnish the forgetting faculty. Even dough absorbs only a certain amount of kneading and the student mind forced into a memory, so forgetting is driven to a sketchy and inexact thinking. The time comes when such a mind can no longer govern its own remembering with a confidence on the part of the student.
Not to be able to remember facts of whose existence one is acutely aware is always disconcerting and sometimes disquieting. In this context, intelligence, idios and inebcles often have phenomenal and photographic minds that retain minute details, but a faulty memory or an impaired one is a great handicap.
In order to preserve the intellectual stability and efficiency a student must train himself to forget. He should remember, grounded as so, to speak, for the purpose of recording those miscellaneous items which need be remembered just long enough to select and remember them, which is vitally necessary to him and
