Carmichel in explanation of the action taken by the Kansas Medical Society, presented in the Kansan Friday, merit study. Doctor Carmichael specifically charges that Doctor Allen "is advertising an extension course in which he intends to incubate the theories of osteopathy, particularly for the care of injuries to athletes on the field," and that he "loses no opportunity to aggrandize this cult to the disadvantage of science." The Kanas is in complete sympathy with the efforts of the Medical Society to combat charitability, whether in ostensibly or regular medical practice. But it believes it is a serious thing to bring charges against any man in public life on such general, and as far as the public can see, unsubstantial charges as these. In his course in Physical Therapy, which presumably is the one to which reference is made, it would seem fairer to consider what Doctor Allen has actually done than to base criticism upon what it may be thought he intends to do. This is the standard course offered by departments of physical training in universities all over the country, and in its Doctor Allen scrupulously avoids taking advantage of his opportunity to advance the osteopathic school. It is a course in scientific care of the body. As for his losing no opportunity to aggrandise it to the disadvantage of science, that seems barely consistent with the fact that he places his own family under regular medical supervision, and sends students to physicians. He uses his knowledge of osteopathy and his skill in it in those matters in which any regular physician would prescribe the same treatment. He has never claimed that osteopathy is a cure-all. Doctor Allen has not for two years attended men on the field. In the gymnasium he gives emergency treatment. His almost phenomenal skill in "setting up" men with some kinds of injuries and in some states of disability in which manipulation is needed, is known throughout the country, and he gives his services generously—entirely without charge—to the injured in other and rival universities; last year, for example, an injured man from the University of Missouri was sent to him for treatment. This is emergency treatment, and treatment of which any doctor of medicine would approve. Undoubtedly much that is unscientific and harmful is going on, under the names of various practices closely related to cateopathy. So it is within the field of medicine; such investigations and reports as those made by the medical profession itself recently in Belleview hospital are evidence of this. Osteopathy, being newer, probably has more abuses. But it is difficult to see what sinister thing there is in bringing such skill as that possessed by Doctor Allen, skill universally recognized, to bear where it is needed. Rather, it seems to the Kanan it would be a gross wrong not to use it for the good of the men under his care. Why should there be a quarrel between skillful, scientific manipulation and skillful, scientific medical practice? The Kausan regards the University as fortunate in having both lines of skill at the command of the athletic department. It pays high tribute to Doctor Allen's ability. The Methodists meet and revoke militarism, then the Legion meets and criticizes the Methodists. More fun. MOTHER'S DAY This is the day officially designates as Mother's Day. It is the day when the University unites in welcoming mothers to our campus. The banquet last night at the cafeteria, the dinners at organized houses today, and the tea this afternoon were planned by the entertainment committee in order that the mothers might meet as many of their sons and daughters friends as possible. We welcome the many mothers who are here. We are proud of them all the time, but we are especially glad we have them on this day, the one set aside to honor them. The only regret is that students living far from their homes—from other states, or perhaps from other countries, will not have this privilege of entertaining their mothers. Mother's Day is a happy event for many, and will hold a poignant home-sickness for others. A PREVENTABLE TRAGEDY A PREVENTED INJURED It is a sad truth that such african Hawaii, the serious injury of Lewis Hardman, and the injury of a pilot, must occur before the eclipse is wakened. Laws are always regarded lightly until their value as a protector of public safety has been proved; then, everyone demands to know why they have not been enforced. It was generally known that there was both a federal and a Kansas law which said that pilots must be licensed before they could use their machines for commercial purposes, but until now this did not have much significance. Probably the power to enforce a law that all pilots must be licensed is properly a project for the Federal government, instead of the state. It is noteworthy that the department of commerce has done much in the past few years to make flying safer. The weakness is that the department cannot force anyone to become licensed. It has only the power to give anyone a license who passes the necessary examinations. Even though this power should and eventually may belong to the Federal government, as long as it remains on the state statutes it should be enforced by the state. When the public demands enforcement of its laws then they will be enforced, but not before. An immediate remedy would be for people to refuse to ride with pilots who could not prove that they were licensed. With such co-operation the government could soon bring about and enforce stricter laws. Private pilots as well as those flying commercially should be required to have licenses. This tragedy does not prove that airplanes are dangerous and should be abandoned. It proves that scientific methods must be substituted for careless stunt flying by unkilled pilots.

After this Peggy probably will not accept gifts until the donor produces a certificate show- ing that all payments have been made. Linen Knickers Golf-Hose New Sweaters Stay for the Summer Session.

LARREMORE, Director PRE-MEDICAL STUDENTS; Long years ago, before the brotherhood of men was established, and when men wore armour and carried great swords, they used to hold up the right hand, palm outward, as a sign of friendly greeting. This was the peace sign. It descended through the ages and was used at the meeting of Columbus and the Indians. The right hand was used supposedly because most men were right handed, and was therefore the hand with which they wielded their weapons of aggression. All pre-medical students who wish to be considered for admission to the School of Medicine for September, 1928, should obtain application forms immediately and return same to the Secretary of the School of Medicine before October 30th. The Office of Student Services (room 6, west administration building, O, O, STOLAND, Secretary A LOST STATUS Later when the population became more dense, and there was not enough elbow room for such a ceremonious greeting, and probably men became more auspicious, they insisted upon taking hold of the right hand and pumping it up and down in an attempt to dislodge any weapon that might be concealed in the sleeve. It is true that certain firms require their representatives to be good containerists and help them acquire better social polish, such as dancing and judging of good liquors, even if such practices are especially intimate with people in their feet and their pocketbooks. This is all very useful business. And so, with the advance of civilization, the handshake became symbolic of that prefigurious instinct in man. When friends met after a long absence they wanted to grasp a friendly hand believing that the touch of the hand would renew the old friendly contact. SPORT EDUCATION WITH A PURPOSE In the realm of sport, golf is admittedly a game that one is called upon to play with at least some des Maybe that is the explanation. Anyway, when John Phoenice shipped himself C. O. D., as household goods from Duesselbord, he didn't know the journey was going to be so long and cheerless. But it was. And when the ship docked at New York City, and a freight unloader carlessly began to explore the contents of the box with his hand, the sight of the hand proved Phoenice's undoing. He must shake hands, instinct was too strong. And he shook hands with the dock hand. And now Phoenice is waiting on Ellis Island, to be sent more than many, betrayed by a handshake. grief of ability when a friend takes one but to the Country Club in the day time. This game, too, is a business asset, even though some of us are inclined to think at times that it is a very horse game and requires entirely too much chasing around after a little ball that is determined to lose itself and be the object of very well chosen but ill spoken words. very well chosen out in skies, worse. But golf is not listed among the sports in the Missouri valley, and it is almost an unknown sport at the University except with those few that have club membership, or have been adlected to the Scotch pastime earlier in life. No recognition is given in it the athletic department, although a "k" used to be the award given to a golfer who had golfing gifts in the University. Perhaps the gate receipts were not large enough, or perhaps it was impossible to exact gate receipts, since a considerable cordon of guards would be required to keep potential gate crushers not possessing the prescribed activity ticket and all that they withdrew from slipping in behind the hazard at the ninth hole or from sitting on the green for an hour or two before the match for no other purpose than to see the big match without paying the admission price. Despite all these bandage, is golf not such a worthwhile part of our economic and social structure that at cost due recognition as a sport be given it? Then, too, is it not a little u to connect with the little pil-ar.

Science and Resources We migl., sympathize with the poor Chicagoans since the police commissioner has said he is "going to make Chicago so tight it squags," but we don't believe he can mean what he says. Clerks must smile or quit, a finance commissioner has ordered, in an attempt to put sunshine into his office. It is said there are many kinds of skeptic. The sketick who doesn't believe this should visit this particular office some rainy, glorious day. University professors are not in a position to finance expeditions out of their own pockets, and must therefore order to make them responsible to order to make their contributions to science on which are based the progress of the world. But it would seem that machinery is avy when the special beneficiaries of these contributions take so little interest in the expeditionary efforts necessary to put them in the field. Prof. Hobbs' third expedition to Greenland is in the interests of a better knowledge of what causes the iceberg movement in the North Atlantic. The toll of officers' lives taken by these storms since Atlantic hopping became popular last year has led us to believe that work of better weather predictions, and it leads us to believe that work of the kind that Prof. Hobbs is doing is more important than any other spectacular flights of the past year.
