WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1928 ENERGY. AT LEAST The charge that Joe and Jane College do not, take their politics seriously enough would seem to be more than refuted by the wreck of the Republican publicity booth at the Oread Avenue entrance of the campus this morning. Assuming that Jane stayed at home in accordance with the date rule, we insist that when Joe is willing to lose a few hours school to tear up anything except a highway, he is taking things too seriously. It is no credit to twentieth century education that allowed students should resort to force in a country founded upon the principle of government by majority preference instead of minority force. The benefits of the net either to the Republicans or the Democrates are extremely doubtful. Possibly it was the result of pore rowdiness rather than political partisanship. At any rate the deed was regrettable and without benefit or virtue except in offering relief from the痛 of inertia which seemed for a time to envelop the campus. THE READING HABIT Students habitually express their lack of knowledge of even the most outstanding world events. Current magazines, except the fiction ones, are labeled "highbrow" and are religiously smiled. Even the Pli Beta Kappas pass by on the other side with their noses buried in the next day's lesson. Some blime the professors for non-polizing student energies, or the truth of the anitner is that students do not have the reading habitat and are too lazy to acquire it. People, as a rule, find time for the things they desire to do. In spite of the increased opportunities to read the latest books and articles, most students stop when they have read the minimum requirement for class work. Dinner hour conversation reveals this deficiency fully. Everyone talks shop in some form or other. The criticism that college people live in a little city remote from the rest of the world has some basis. Ignorance of the world outside the academic sphere is prevalent. College students for the most part are provincial when they might be comopolitan. PERSIA DISCARDS THE TURBAN The shah has decreed that all Persian men must wear coat and trouser instead of flowing robes. This is the latest order by the Persian ruler in his efforts to modernize his country. The custom of wearing turbans was abolished by official decree previously. This act has already resulted in the ordering of two million caps from German clothing manufacturers. There is an old adage that clothes do not make the man. However, customs of dress have much to do in distinguishing certain nationalities and races. For instance, the turban and the flowing robes have always seemed a distinctive part of the Persian costume. Now the chah wants his subjects to adopt western dress. He is making efforts to "modernize" his country. The adoption of modern (scaled) clothes will not necessarily mean the complete modernization of STOCKS AND EDUCATION Prices on the New York stock exchange alight along to new heights in many issues during September continuing the advance which has characterized the market for many months. This semi period which has seen the rise of stock prices also has seen an uninterrupted increase in the number of students in American universities and colleges. And every campus has witnessed its quota of new buildings rung from studio to fraternity houses. The army is investing in a mid-tide of prosperity. Much of the increase in college attendance is due to the comparative ease with which many students borrow part of their expenses. Much of the new building is made possible only because of fees. Of late an increased cry that stock prices are too high has come from the nation's best business hands. The warning will be unmistakely and unheeded. What difference does it make on the campus anyway? The student who is borrowing to live beyond his means will do well to investigate the interlocking channels of credit. He will recognize that the country's credit resources are no largely covered on Wall street that a collapse there will cash present property. Prices may fail so that the debt contracted now will be twice as hard to pay off in a few years. Soil matter to the student. He knows that his four years experience cannot be taken from him, however many fortunes may be swept away in the crash. THE UNIVERSITY BAND The University band will play approximately a hundred times during the academic year. Whenever there is a popular Hill gathering the band is certain to be there, whether it be a rally, convention, football games, or commencement. Under the leadership of Professor J. C. McCandes, approximately one hundred musicians are organized each year and trained to play for a variety of engagements. "Mac" usually has a week to get his band into shape before playing. This is noteworthy when one considers that approximately half the players are new; that music has to be arranged and an organization perfected. "Mac" has been with the University eight years as a band director. To serve under him is to receive an excellent lesson in discipline in addition to learning band music. Campus Opinion After all it does seem amazing, after a fight for space in which to hold a debate, to win a big prize on "Why Vote for AI Smith," to find in another section of the same paper an offer of two $8,000 prizes should be elected President." The editorial submitted last night by a member of the so-called fair play committee of the At Smith club and Mr. Wesson, who presided over the term, it seems to me that this committee was created with a "chip" on its shoulder. Far be it from the Hoover club to knock it off! The Hoover club of K. U. originated and founded in 1908 at its fire and the pride of the University of Kansas men and women to have a part in and to be associated with the selection of perhaps the finest type of student body on campus. Our office of President. Our policy therefore is to boost and not to knock. We are happy to see an Al Smith club on the campus, although several of us resent being publicly hirled among the officers of their prominent committees.

But I was more interested in the moral you drew from it—that “if AI had been a college student who had just paid his fees and bought his text books we wonder what he would have done for it.” The tutor received a copy of the latest Yale catalog and read in it that the tuition for the coming year is to be $100. What do you think of that for a fee? How much would be left for even a correct? Is anybody proposing to send a delegation to the Legislature and run a political campaign? Where do we live in Kansas, where other people bodies millionaires are allowed to get an education? que est A. M. Wilcox Editor Daily Kansas: In an effort to try to learn the famous Rock Chalk and Rock Chalk Junior before the first pop rally, they stepped several upperclassmen on the rock with their just what the exact words of the two yellows were. Their reptiles varied from a frank short, "I don't know" to a long, stuttering, "I've been to lots of football games and... but—but I don't know just what the exact words are." I asked these upperclassmen with all manager of courtney and earnestness and I believe that these six men and few others have learned the reptiles. But, what's wrong? Do not the school yells mean as much to the upperclassmen as to the freek! Aren't the yellows worth learning? I think not of ignorance on the part of any student in answer to this question. A musa under this is taught to the "knights of the blimee"? - Gary L'Gary. A Kamaan reporter making his rounds was given a story in a Hill office. The man wished to interview him, and the interview him. He was sitting at a desk, and on the desk was a sign bearing a name. So the reporter, a little too hasty, said in his story that the man whose sign was the sign sign the one he had interviewed. The cynicism of newspaperpapers its uses—at least a standing belief that things are what they seem is of value to a reporter. Witness— It happened that the man who was sitting at the desk was not the one whose name was on the sign. So, soon after the story was printed in the Kansan, students began inquiring it the office for someone who had no "Inside Stuff' ... 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. Various ideas for the letterment of the Kannan's servant to the HII, then from both civil and within the HII, are given. The letterment is time to require as required. Of course there are times when information "breaks late". These times "try men's souls" but are part of the culture of the type of the man the Kawan carries is not that sort. It is known by those planning the events days and often weeks in advance. It is only common practice that, in such an event is expected, to give the paper simple time to prepare a story without more than the ordinary rush. And thus foretight makes more certain publicity will be forthcoming. "How can I be sure my story gets into the Kunsun?" --interest in them and whom they had no need of seeing. That question is anxiously asked of Kannan editors almost daily. The answer must be given, not coldly, but apologetically, "You never can be sure." The editors aren't always sure themselves. That is a condition inadvertent to newspaper publishing anywhere. G. M. ROBLES, Presidente But there are ways to be sure then usual. The best of these is to get your story to the Kansan office early. One day recently two people called to say that they notified the Kansan of them about noon of the day the stories should have been run. Some hurt feelings on both sides were engendered. If those men had called for a reporter the previous day the stories would have been sent away to the Kansan's pages by mail or the day of publication. The moral for those who wish to have their new printed correctly is to be careful not to expose facts; do not leave him a chance to guess at some of them. The moral for the reporter is, of course, Don't expose facts for granted; when in doubt, ask. Our Contemporaries Hrist. Your Colors. Frost! fresh Your Clubs, Profes. Every year your Shall and Cross- bones honor sophomore girls by enforcing the wearing of the green cup by freshmen there has been a noticeable lack of the wearing of the freshman indigine, especially among unmarginalized men. Many freshmen apparently feel that it is unwelcome to wear the badge of the mock or that it is unworthy to be so obviously attached to the beginning class. Such beliefs certify a student's failure to meet the university for any other class locality. Every freshman, organized or unorganized, should be just proud of being a first-year man and should harder no thought that his class is not as good as any other. It is no good, but it is up to the freshmen of this year's class to make it even better. You can do it some seem almost impossible, they are freshmen. In many cases it is evident without the green emblem, ever though there are several thousand and students in the University. Naturally there are certain rules and regulations regarding the conduct of freshman, for this is an should-be serious burden to the university, a necessary because of the entirely new environment in which the freshman finds himself. The wearing of the pants is a tradition hanged down almost since the beginning of universities. It is worn by freshman of practically every higher institution of learning in the country. Such tradition is an imitation of the wearing of Corsets by students. Freshmen now cannot be forced to wear green caps. In former years when action was taken to make it a permanent part of the freshman's apparel, they were not being seen without them. But drastic action should not be needed. Freshmen should make the wearing of the cap something of which to be proud and not something to be shunned. It is important that freshmen be freshman cap burring that all the caps fed to the huge bonfire will be stained from constant wear, and that each freshman will part with his with a feeling of relief and with the beaten ones.

Hugh Bently As Others See It FAMOUS DERATES The only building immediately associated with any one of the seven Lincoln towns—Ottawa, Freeport, Jonesboro, Charlestown, Galesburg, Quincy and Alton—that is still standing is known as "Old Main" on the campus of Knox College at Galesburg. It had been completed only two years before the debate, which was held there in November 1964. The plan was for a meeting in the public square, but as a northwest wind was blowing, a platform was improvised in the shelter of the college walls. About it were gathered that October day more than (twenty thousand men, women and children, chiefly from the city) took a foot, by wagon or train to this then little prairie town to hear the little Giant and the Rail Splitter discuss slavery—the largest assemblage, it is stated that Lincoln ever addressed on a purely political subject.

And it was his voice in those debates that led to Lincoln's death through newspapers and printed copies of the speeches. This is suggested by the opening sentences of Lincoln's reply to Douglass: My follow citizens: A very large portion of the speech which Judge Douglas has addressed to you has previously been delivered and put into print. I do not mean that for a hit opened the Judge at all. If I had not been interrupted I was going to say something. So if I were to make to a very large portion of it had already been more than once made and published. The site of this debate has been a Lincoln shrine. It is one of the few places where the son of Lincoln spoke. President McKinley once took his enriched cabinet with him, save only one member, for a celebration, after which he was held. President Roosevelt spoke at the same place, and President Taft made the address at the celebration of the fifth anniversary of the debate. It is especially remembered that Horace E. White of the Evening Post was at the original debate as a reporter, that Mollec E. Stone was there as a companion, and having ridden thirty miles in a wagon from an Illinois farm. So does history make its shrines. This particular one should be kept in perpetual repair as the site of one of the earliest Greek cities, which began a new chapter in history and gave the world one of its immortals.—New York Times. AS THE PESSIMIST SEES US AS THE PESSIMIST SEES US Probably the weakerest thing about this room is the intention to have as little responsibility as possible, and there is no single thing we wish to avoid more than the management of a furnace. The management of so many of us pit building homes, and spend our lives in apartments. A generation or so back we thought nothing of chopping and carrying in the wood, splitting kindling and getting up in a cold house to build fires. But as soon as our lot in this respect became easier, we began wanting it still easier. Ease begins a love for more and more use, and now we have a new opportunity, responsibility.
