THEY'RE INGENIOUS
These college boys are certainly ingenious. No one can deny that.
genious. No one can deny that.
Slot machines, protected temperature by an injection, have whirred with regularity for some time in cafes and drug stores of Lawrence even though students manipulating them know that the odds are pretty heavy against them. In the bowels of the machines many nickles have accumulated.
Little brass stilts are now being found among the nickels. Evidently the engineers have been at work. The Woolworth stores in many towns sell shops too.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY RANSAN
Gambling in its many forms leads to things like that. First the house gets to wanting too much; then the player retaliates by a method of cheating such as this. That's why there are and gambling laws.
A temporary injection has been granted the company operating the machines on the ground that mints are vended with each nickle deposited, and that the tokens delivered on the winning combinations are for apportionment only and not good for cash or trade. That the tokens are used as cash in these establishments and that the mints only serve as a blink requires only a few minutes of investigation. The Kansas City, Ks., judge who granted the injunction will rarely know this by the time the case comes up and will deal with the company as it should be dealt with.
Mussolini says that he is seeking peace, but somehow his method of searching seems a bit strange.
UNEMPLOYMENT
A Kansas City Stats headline reads,
"More Kick in Winter 'Gaa!'" We can think of lots of things that we have hiek if that's what they're looking for. Now, now, we meant砰 mukles!
Senator Reed B. Snoot, of Utah, in the Senate declares that unemployment in this country is due not to lack of property, but to the labor-employing machines which are being installed throughout the country.
Such a declaration leads quite naturally to a query as to what is to be done with the superfluous workers who are so eliminated?
Smoot went on to say that employees who dismissed men as a result of such devices should be obligated to find them new jobs.
Where are these jobs to be found?
Are only a favored few industries to be allowed to adopt such machines, and others forced to continue on a hand work basis that there may be sufficient jobs for all?
The answer lies of course in that by passing along the saving made by these machines to the masses, consumption will be sufficiently increased to necessitate expansion of industry.
When such a division of profits is made and hours are sufficiently shortened to spread still further the jobs long, then unemployment may end. As long as labor saving devices aid only the producer, so long will we have unemployment.
IS SINGLENESS BLESSED?
"A couple married while in college does not get all that is to be bad from a college, education," a news dispatch quotes a Columbia, Ohio, pastor as saying, "They must have a chance to get many and varied experiences and they must get them while they are young and single."
Under the present system of self-
support for all disturbed people such
a statement is undoubtedly correct.
Put the wisdom of such a system is
another matter.
Would not these experiences if had mutually be of much greater richness and benefit? The essentiality of such experience is not to be doubted, but to declare that they must be experienced as a single individual is doubtful wisdom.
If a couple who intend to marry at the conclusion of their college career, are soon after in they may be economically able, were to have these essential experiences together, would they not be modeled on their sufficiently closer to the parallel to make their life faller andicher?
Economically, at present, early marriage in nowhere, but if parents are willing to support their children while in college separately, why should they not support them if married?
If marriage after graduation will bring greater contentment and efficiency, why should it not before?
All marriages require some adjustment, why not allow this to start during the flexible period of life?
A 28-year old graduate of the University of California has been appointed chief of police at Wichita. Seems to indicate that a University education will prepare a man for some kind of business, anyway.
THE YELLOW PERH.
Just around the corner is one of our most welcome visitors anxiously waiting for the cold winds to stop flowing so she can make her entrance and rule supreme over the country, Old King Winter has probably made his fatal threat at holding his throat, and now Daitya Miss Spring is instantly willing to touch the dying king from his throne and take possession herself.
In a short time the trees around
Mit. Orgill will be filled with green
leaves, birds will be shouting in the
arennum, green grass will cover the
long hairy spots on the Hill, flowers
will be in bloom, and all nature will
be expressing its joy by showing itself.
But we shall have one form of nature which is not welcome. If the experiences of past years mean anything it is probably safe to predate that this year as usual, Mt. Oread will be covered with the yellow perch, the hindfoot.
We have a most pleasant campus, especially in the opening, but to have it completely covered with dandelions certainly doesn't improve it. Is it asking too much of the University to have it wage a special war on this yellow post this year and help keep the campus a real beauty spot?

SILENCE IS DANGEROUS MR. COAL OPERATOR
The Senate investigating committee has not another obstacle in its probe into wages and working conditions in the bituminous coal industry. E. L. Greer, counsel for the West Virginia operators, has refused fully to testify.
Some interesting things have been brought to light by the committee so far. Henry Ford, according to testimony, pays $28 for an eight-hour day.
in his coal mines, while many other operators pay no tax as $2.85 for a day of the same length. The contrast is far from favorable to the operators paying the latter wage.
Mr. Grever has put his clients in a rather precarious position. "His action implies that they fear the consequences of revealing their wage scale—that, in other words, it is below the minimum required by a decent standard of living.
It would have been far better for Mr. Grewer's client if he had given the requested information. If their ware scale is a decent one, the public could appreciate the fact; if it is not, the odium attached to the operators could certainly be no stronger than it now is, with the implication of a poor warge scale plan the fact of refund to co-operate with an authorized governmental agency.

--a lovely tone quality, but he seems to lack a force of expression resulting in a monotony of effect. He sang two groups of songs, "My Love I Come to Me" by Davis and "Sweet Stirring Stirling" by Strickland in the group which seemed especially suited to the audience. He was accompanied by Miss Anne Sweyne at the piano.
Clinton Slott, pianist, played a program at his senior recital last night. His stage presence was easy and composed and his numbers were played with accuracy and expression.

Perhaps the most outstanding number was "Concerto in D-Minor" by Bubachanin with orchestral parts by Prof. H. C. Taylor, second piano, and third piano. The parts gave tone color to the selection and muble possible effective climaxes. Mr. Motts' other selections were well played and at no time hesitating Jr. juveniles. They included "Senat Tranquilis" by MacDowell, "Predote, Concerto in D-Minor", "Vervie" by Debussy, and "Preludes, B-Flat Minor" by Rachminoff.

Sale car is a vehicle
The $10 motor car has become a national menace.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS announces
A new car, even of the smaller type, requires a considerable outlay of money. These who are able to successfully negotiate for the ownership of one must have some degree of financial responsibility. The car itself is in a measure an assurance of responsibility.
But a car that is inok, even though it will run, can be obtained for a small amount of money in these days. Two $2 bills will buy quite a livety vehicle. And as a result many persons, without each cach after they have bought such a contraption to move, not guiding, are driving.
It threatens property damage and it threatens life.
A driver in each car can kill a person or injure him just as easily as can the driver in an expensive car. And he can smash into a high-priced car and cause heavy damages. Almost invariably the driver of the junk pile has nothing to pay for even slight damage to another car, much less to meet the liabilities incurred by the car owner. A person of distangible property, his "car" should be scaled the one who sees it would be better off without it.
Junk Car Is a Meneee
Nearly every responsible driver of a motor car protects himself with insurance that will cover any damage he may do to the other follow. Should he be responsible for a crash with one of these $10 cars, the owner of the junk车 probably would make him the accident, unless he should unfairly turn the accident around the other way and it is a different story.
There are some courses, of course,
but none is likely to be put into effect
soon. It is a matter of artful doodling
of those moving junk piles.

"For Life"
Under a law passed by the last session of the Kansas Legislature, in Wichita criminal has been sentenced to three years in prison, a new law provides that when a man is convicted the second time, he may have his penalty doubled, and for a third conviction, he may be sentenced for life. The theory for that is that if a man insists on committing crimes, the judge will give him more punishment of putting the state to so much expense. He might as well be sent to the pentestery for keeps as soon as the haunt of crime is made certain. It is also bound that when a man commits a crime, it is twice the prospect of life in prison will act as a deterring influence in

Hard to Convince
There is only one thing for President Caitol to do in order to convince some of the "drifters" that he does not intend to be a candidate. That is the simple and effective strategy the next stateman who talks that way. Some people never seem to understand when they are not wanted. It is related of such a man that he decided to attend a hall to which he had not been invited. On entering the room he was not by the managing committee and but to the outside hall, where the committee met, and a second time the committee met him and conducted him to the street. A third time he entered the door to mingle with the dancers, and this time the committee threw him down stairs. As he lay at the bedside he sat in a half of his brushed hair and remarked:
"I believe they did not want me." President Coxidge is up to the last demonstration of his intentions.

Plain Tales From the Hill
--heavy underwear in Kansas is a curiosity.
"I should like to call to our attention an arrest in the text," the chemistry professor told his class. "On page 15, you will find a statement to the effect that "the student is not expected at this point to memorize the formulas given above." You may just mark out the 'not.'"

--heavy underwear in Kansas is a curiosity.
A fliat that will jump out of water and scare a fisherman so bad that he don't jerk his pole is a murvel, but a man who will confess to wearing
It was during the hot days, late week that a man living near the University, confessed to the curious hubs underwear during the entire winter.
- Such a curious confession reminds one of Benjamin Franklin and his ghost and is comparable to only one thing—the Texas horse toed.
Taking advantage of the opportunity he answered somewhat bashfully, "He did. I'm the man."
They had quarrelled for two blocks.
Finally, she grew desperate and mattered,
"Oh, I wish the Lord had made me a man."
"Jack, I'll have every fellow on the campus outfitted with a supply of spring and summer socks and underwear!"
"Jack, send for it yourself, there's room for several follows on this campus with 2500 men buyers. Write them today for their complete free selling out-fit."
"Bill, we've got to sell something that is good and at bargain prices."
The boy asked natively, "If I kissed you would you serenet?" Looking up at him, then down, she answered so eager, "Mother said that it girls should be seen and not heard."

Bill and Jack were typical college boys—always broke! To make their expenses, they had thought of everything from a shop to a near-bear factory—somehow these plans never worked.
