MONDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1929 THE STUDENT'S LAST STAND The students who had two finals on the first day of examination this winter remember vividly, and others who have been in this predicament sometime during their college careers remember more faintly, the hardship and disadvantage they suffered. Such a schedule means that one or two finals must be taken with only what extra preparation can be inserted between regular assignments running up to the last day. In addition to this it must be considered that the University professor is notoriously behind schedule in his assignments and that therefore work during the last weeks of the semester tends to be more concentrated. Term papers and note books are due. This past semester, for instance, 8:30 classes were scheduled for examination on the first day. Now, a little glimpse into student psychology will reveal that 8:30 classes, doing so in order to utilize all of his time, The student who does little but take "pipes" and attend to social duties avoids 8:30 classes like poison. If the professors on the HIll were generally prone to give the type of examination which could be passed without "cramming" if the student had worked hard during the course, the situation would be different. Unfortunately a great many of them ask specific questions or minor points in a course, and this type of exam can be "hiit" only when concentrated study immediately precedes it. It is only right that students taking an examination the first day should have the same opportunity to prepare as those taking it on the last, and it is to be hoped that such an adjustment will be made in examination schedules in the near future. LAUGHTER BETTER THAN MEDICINE A flat derby hat helps to combat the flu epidemic and to cure the ili patients of Dr. L., F. Cain of Hutchinson, "Laugh that off", is the Cain plan rather than taking too much medicine. He happened to see a foreigner walking down the street and atop his head was a flat derby. Doctor Cain bought it and everybody immediately laughed at him. He visited one patient and she burst into laughter, too. When she had calmed down sufficiently to have her pulse taken, there was a decided improvement for the better. She had been quite ill with the flu. This incident proves that the frame of mind certainly has a lot to do with the degree of sickness. The more the ill person assumes the happy side of life the quicker he will become better physically. This method might cut down on drug store business if found successful by too many doctors. Laughing is good for the mind and gives people something to think about other than daily business. MUSIC Creative workers and other toilers will experience undreamed of productivity after music shall have been made a more practical, more constant and intimate factor in their lives, according to Dr. William Van de Wall, of Columbia University, who main- Musa that music is invited to workers After years of proof showing that music can be used as a lever on the mentally sick to lift, submerged springs of energy into consciousness, Doctor Van de Wall is now directing this propaganda toward normal persons. He believes, that if everyone could have orchestras nearby during work hours it tremendous impetus would be added to the world's work. From his personal experiences, Doctor Van de Wall has discovered that the strains of a symphony orchestra make work easier, and the worker more efficient. He advocates the use of music in offices and factories as an influence to combat the fatigue-point which most workers experience at some hour of the day—some about 11 in the morning, others at 3 in the afternoon. "But it is necessary to caution against over-stimulation to the point of imitation. For muscle may also serve as a sedative." Doctor Van de Kroon writes of good things about muscus as an stimulant is that it leaves no bad aftermath." RIP THE PHILOSOPHER The proof of the old adage "Truth is stranger than fiction" has been proved by Robert Ripley and his famously—or infamous, depending on one's taste—Believe It or Not. Not only has *Rip* "firmed" truth strange but he has made it intensely interesting. A man may be raised to only tepid beat by strange and weard tales of fiction, while Rip's cosmetal sketch or some prespereous corrupter will send him into a position of disagreement or denial. Each person learns the lesson for himself. Sometimes in the life of every girl with a "time" it dawns on her that she is better appreciated and her efforts are more heartily received when she is telling a truth than when she is "narrifying." Sometimes every "apple pulver" learns that he gains and holds the attention of his professor more fully when he is being honest than when he is "bulling." Advertisers learn that the truth sells their product better than fiction; speakers learn that an audience listens to experiences which ring true; business men find that customers value honesty above price. It is important that even universities cannot teach honesty; it is learned, like wisdom, in the school of Experience. A million wise crowds changed their roosting place and escape sportspersons' bombs. People aren't so wise. They try in Chicago. Today's Best Editorial TOO MUCH OIL For a year trouble has been brewing in the oil industry, the volume of production of petroleum mounting in a threatening fashion. With recent discoveries and resulting booms in and about Wichita, Kan., the situation has rebounded a climax, the American Petroleum Institute, meeting in Kansas to reconsider an overriding legislative action by the various states that would check the production of crude oil in such generous quantities. The petroleum industry, like gold mining and some other extractive industries, is not readily susceptible of sane, gradual development. By its very nature it is a widely fluctuating affair, and cannot be restricted to the orderly exploitation of a vast mineral resource save by a monopoly or by strict and complete Government regulation. Neither of these has been adequately tried thus far to predict what results would follow . . . Just what can the State Legislature do? Theoretically, they can restrict production to reasonable limits in their several jurisdictions, but, in point of fact, they probably will not. The revenue derived from the production of oil is too enticing to State Legislatures for such self-abnegation on the part of individual States. And so, having run the gamut of possible solutions, we are forced to suppose that the production of oil will continue to be large in wildest proposition, and that our liquid heritage will continue to be rocky unsealed. Cincinnati Inquire Forests and Swamps Recommended for Adoption as Natural Game Farms Hartford, Conn. - Cutting down the forests and turning the land into farms for grain crops and meat cattle was the natural thing for our ancestors to do, but it is not always the wise thing. Much of our forest land is more profitable as nature made it, producing wood and game animals, and such areas should be encouraged to continue in their primal business, Paul Redington, chief of the Bureau of Biological Survey, said recently at the impost of the Third New England Forestry Congress. There is also the possibility of increasing the profitability of such uses by using the forest resources. "It would have for centuries breed our crop plants and stock animals, he continued, although at present almost nothing is being done in this direction. Computer Opinion Campus Opinion SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT Editor Daily Karanik: Should there be only one photo graph studio for the Jawhawk? graph studio for the Jayhawk? Let us suppose we have only one oil company in the state of Kansas, and you want our oil company to operate in the state. Now, don't you suppose this company would come, to the point where they would buy it on which day and hour you could buy it? So, here is the case, let us imagine that you could buy your gasoline at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday morning, and then you bought it but there was no service man there. You waited for one hour only to find that the service man did forget all the things you would do. Would you would do you? Perhaps you would like cursing him and the state of Kansas, and probably you would. A very similar incident occurred last Wednesday morning. A certain patient was admitted for a picture of the pharmacy laboratory for the Jayhawk at $30. Most of the seniors and instructors of the pharmacy laboratory at $30, and had prepared for the picture. After waiting for an appointment all about the appointment. It is true that the Jayhawk staffer skillfully used her certain studio in Lawrence, with the aim of having the very best pictures in it. We also have other studios in Lawrence that can develop pictures just as well as the pictures that are in the 1927-28 Jayhawk studio. As Others See It Let us suppose that the Jayhawker staff discontinued this rule, but made an agreement with the studios of Lawrence University to take especially for the Jayhawker, provided that the Jayhawker would be able to the stoneman not to the individual, fraternity, or security, who would pay for it if the picture were Would the studies agree to such a plan? Yes, if they had confidence and faith in themselves, and the ability to learn from them, then the Jayhawker surely wouldn't want any pictures taken by such a studio. Such a plan would create an ever-greater asset of the greatest asset to the business world. Policificians of Mt. Cree, are you going to have this proposed plan, or can one in your platform next spring? F. W. BROWN Cincinnati Enquirer. MR. TROTZKY **UNDER GUARD** a minority leader exited under ouster guard in Constantinople is a striking commentary on the methods of abolition that has been waged by the Trotzky's support was so strong as to require that he be better treated than by his venerable v伯利良 v Staina Government, their most menacing opponent to a more pleasant climate under rigid guard of soviet officials. Presumably Mr. Trotzky had regime—if he were sent into exile in the usual fashion, free to go where And thus do absolute Governments work their will, by stifling opposition before it can mener its forces into action. If a power becomes so might threaten the party in power. SEVENTY-EIGHT VOTED FOR WESTERN WEST. We represent representatives has deflected a bill which would have made four days residence a sufficient qualification for the filing of divorce proceedings it was deemed appropriate. It was enough for practical purposes. But we are intrigued by burrises as to what may have been running in the system. --many instances a direct profit to the landowners through the leaking of fishing and shooting privileges." In other words, dictatorship, whether by an alleged super-man or by a human being, rises; works out not only to defeat the will of masses of people, but also to fan the fires of dissension and jealousy in the ranks of zeners. Tolerance by the ruling group of opposing elements in the state is the surest guarantee of sane and lasting democracy. SEVENTEEN VOTED FOR IT Whatever may be said of the primary mortality of divorce, whatever may be urged concerning its extent, it is more normally viewed as in any event a last resource, to be invoked only after measures of reconciliation have been completed. It is unenviable notoriously in association with certain American divorce scandals, neglects to save its face with the implication that it will chance to adjust their differences. Ms. Relting is also of the opinion that in the present era of agricultural depression through over-production it is a mistake to increase the area of farm land by draining and breaking. In this regard, he said. 'Reaching this, he said.' Too large in the past sun, we have been looked upon as someone who can grow a lot of water and make the land available for the production of farm crops and livestock. In many instances this has required us to cultivate it for such production, and at the same time it has destroyed it for uses which it might not be used for. As long as there is more land available than is needed for agricultural and livestock production, States, extensive drained projects the, in my opinion, midday effort, treated, wet areas in their natural environment of fishes, of such waterfowl as ducks and geese, and of such aquatic species of fishes, of such waterfowl Wet areas may also be made to produce vast quantities of food suitable for feeding and producing millions of fish. Yet even with certain animals animal life that would add materially to our supplies will require extensive recreation through hunting both with a camera and the gun and provide in Revelation that so large a proportion as 28 per cent of a representative group is willing to brand their state as having an amazing feature of the dispatch. Hypercritical or not, the system recognizes the solubility of the occasion and indulently is a reasoned concession to decent mobile union. SHOOTING LIONS - Portland Oregonian Capt.

Representative French, of Idaho, suggested that they be "decommissioned" as soon as smaller carriers are built. Another company replied. He says these船务 are "essential" and that they have proved themselves "even more efficient" than other carriers. Operating cost is about what was estimated before they were commissioned. The active service, as they should be. These ships were built as an experiment. They were far too costly to maintain because they are expensive to maintain. The navy may have changed its strategy, because they are expensive to maintain. The navy may have changed its strategy, because they are expensive to maintain.

BIL RO'S EIGHTY COLONELS Governor Billbo, of Mississippi, prides himself in being such a broad-minded Democrat, and as such he will attend the Heuer-Court inaugural meeting; however, to say that he will merely be among those present. He should cut quite a figure, for he will be accompanied by his entire staff of officers in his office. THOSE FLOATING AIRPORTS As Mississippi chings tenuously to the traditions of the Old South, Governor Hilbo's colonels should make a brilliant showing.

Only the ignorant man believes that he knows everything. Karen creates the desire for more knowledge. Curiosity about any subject leads one to make impressions and those impressions make the motive for action is there, but sometimes it affects even Americans—perhaps more often than that. The tomorrow of the people of tropical countries is something of an oddity. An obo Mexican legend has it that manana is the land of tomorrow, and a culture that attaches to strength, that attitude is hard to overcome. It proves too much for many, but it provides a useful curiosity. Curiosity is like any other good trait; it must be ingrained it becomes rusty. Daily News HIGH-PRESSURE STUDY The poor student who delays his work until the last few days of the semester has long been the object of professional execration. . . . This student turns in all required work, a trilate late, perhaps slightly condensed, but practically always in good form. Students rate more than the traditional "D." Often his results are of higher quality than those of the student who prepares himself for the exam per schedule. Many times it is of at least average ranking. The semester grades, however, have never been greater to the recipient to great endeavors. Why should the so-called dilettanteudent be verally blamed by anamnologist who has taken him as though he were purely a laboratory specimen, why doesn't he use such a model?

Therefore the student who is capable of turning out the semester's work in two days should be regarded with awe. Pii Beta Kappa should be proud to honor him as one of their cadets, and emphasizes his caliber by his actions. In the New York Times an editorial on superstition recently appeared. It said, in part, that "he who shoulders when a black cut stains nerves across his arm" should never need a pinch of spilled salt over his shoulder need no longer blush and hang his head.
