U. 25 Polluted in the afternoon, five times a week, and on Sunday morning, by students in the Department of Journalism of the University of Kansas, from the Press of the University of Kansas. Entered as second-class mail matter September 18, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kanaa, under the art of March 3, 1957. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1927 LET THERE BE MORE LIGHT Silly errors, significant errors, foolish errors and just plain blunders are made by newspapers every day. And no one is more aware of that fact than are newspapersmen. Every real journalist fights continually to keep the percentage down; yet, one moment of inattention, and he finds himself the laughing stock of the town. Newspaper errors are not made from any perversity inherent in newspapers; they do not like being the burt of a joke any better than do other human beings. If public leaders generally would accept error an incident to the conditions under which newspapers are published, and teach the public to watch for and discount newspaper errors, the daily press can be a much greater influence for good than it is today. Whether we like it or not, newspapers are part of the American habit of life. To turn that habit to best account, it is required that the readers shall have a knowledge of what the newspaper can be expected to do, and where it may be expected to fail—and read intelligently in the light of that knowledge. A MOVE TO END TIPS The theft she snatched a Washing-ton woman's pocketbook from her recently didn't have to wait long to get a taste of high life. She chased him up a tree. The porters assert that the tipping practice is encouraged by the sleeping car company as a means of keeping down the scale of wages. Tips are so commonly accepted an necessity that they are a charge on the passenger, and are reckoned in by the Fullman company in computing the actual wages of porters. The petition of the union of Pullman partners to the interstate commerce commission asking the abolition of the tipping system is a step toward placing these men on a parity with the bulk of other railroad employees. As such it deserves the careful consideration of this commission and of all persons who travel in Pullman. The brotherhood of porters is not the only class of railroad workers that is forced to demand on this uncertain and mental system for a large part of its wages. The familiar "red capes" in the large stations also live by tips. It would be a service to the public if the interstate commerce commission would abolish the system entirely. It is sure to work injury on any class of employees that has to depend on it. Tips have no place in a democratic country. WHAT IS MAN, THAT THOU ART MINDEIL OF HIM? Floods run wild and devastate. Fires destroy. Winds shatter and tear. They are all the works of nature. Grass creeps through pavement cracks. The earthquake quivers, and foundations fall. It is the eternal combat of nature against the work of man. Try as man can, he cannot conquer the elements. The seasons come and go. What for? Geologists and astronomers say the seasons depend on the proximity of the earth to the sun. Some like to believe the seasons to be symbols of the God. The summer to show His mercy, the winter his wrath, AND OVER THE MOON I'll knot my hands in the move of the wind. I won't be blown like a leaf in a pale With a twabbling mast and a shredded sail; Now to his shoulder, hauched on his rump. Set for the jerkiest stumble or jump, And link my legs for a bellyband; A part of him—No, that's not it. With areas for reins and my will for a bit. I'll be the brain that he must obey; I'll hold his tail to the sky-blow way. I choose—tramping the loose sea, Storming through city and low valley. Foot off the last rock above the green, And over the sun, and over the sun. Back, you ask, once we've trod the sky? until you tell me a single reason and the autumn His power and inviable love for beauty. —Clement Wood in the Harp. Overnight, the leaves are transformed into paintings uninvaded by the master artist's brush. Overnight, the green becomes a maze of bright and shaded colors. Red mats into orange, gold shades into yellow, and the nit fit become a purple bag over this horizon. The sun flames and spikesles. Harvest comes and goes. Could man he mean enough to combat this nature? EVERY YEAR IT HAPPENS Windows, squeared with paint, ear tracks gripped with soap, offices secured all over town, hay racks draped over cupboards, and complaining cups holding down from roof tomb—all and many other traces of Halloween mark the spirit of the young American. Year after year he has his fun. Purge it is a fine thing that he has it. Who does not remember the crisp, hands-on jerking thrill of chasing down dark streets, harbored painting windows, hanging old shirts in front of a few window of flowers, or learing the blistering post against the parisian door? And what man ever more fum than leading the mail carrier's old rag into the denim's office, or fitting the school hound lock with plaster of murice? Who will ever forget the time that widow Brown's cat got her hand caught in the high wheel, or when some ambitions town member of the gang painted the town band wagon? The day is still celebrated. And it is still celebrated at night. Perlmei today's pruals are a bit more refined, but whatever they are, if they are as drilling as they were a few years ago, praise the day that brings thunders! FIRE FLIES The plies in Marvin Grove are not all illuminated against the eastern slope of the hill back of the Administration building by the moon this week. Faint, almost ghostly, the light of distant street lamps on Mississippi street dimly encircles the trees. The atmosphere of the place is too still for one to be at case. There is an uncanny feeling imparted by the long shadows almost indiscernable at times, and at other times brightened by the sweep of a motor car headlight turning the corner at Thirteenth and Oread. The effect of the chiaroscure on the senses is a counterpart in nature of the effect of light and shade of an旧 Rembrandt picture. Although it is now Indian summer, small fllickering lights appear critically on the hillside like fireflies in June. Arthur Brisbane says the worst of college is that: A half-baked boy lives surrounded by other half-baked boys, when he ought to be living among them, learning to be a man. He learns from his older boys, and their convictions seriously.

OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Val. IX Sunday, 20 October, 1927 No. 43 IAV JANES: MORNA ZELL WAGSTAFF, President. NEBRASKA GAME: All women students expecting to attend the Nebraska game at Lincoln, Saturday, Nov. 5, must register in the office of the Dean of Women their names, methods of transportation, time of departure, time of return, and the name of their chapron. The written consent of the parents of those expecting to go by rays means of transportation other than the special train must be sent to the office of the Dean of Women Ly Thursday, Nov. 3. Mr. Bribbons get the idea that the "college boy takes himself, the other boys and their opinions seriously." Such a picture presents the "college boy" in a rather sorry grip; a sigh; a look of concern; who should be learning to be a man. And this he continues, is the "worst of college." What a beautiful conception of the wiles of college. Is it this the sure unary seaker of "higher education" falls into? Surely, why are they why are our schools so crowded. —J. E. ELIZABETH MEGUIAR, Acting Dean of Women. Our Contemporaries The forest has played a whimsical joke on a tree standing directly north of the house. There are no leaves except those at the very end and of each branch, winter trees. - J. P.

This would include a large portion of the student population of much use. Stanford Daily To just what extend the democratic spirit overlaps the cosmopolitan is, however, a question. Students native to the United States should remember that they are more likely to have a large extent from the best classes in their own countries. Being from the higher intellectual groups in the world they can hardly fail to know American culture and politics, and to Americans, if the Americans would take the trouble to seek them out. Sneaking Seriously Students of Stanford pride themselves on the fact that the company is based in California and lives on the book when they conclude that their number is made up of nine American students. United States, twenty foreign countries, and four United States territories. The effect is unusual and slightly irritating. An oak stump appears to whisker away from the air, at its exposure, while the summary of the plumes of an orchid feature flakes. On Other Hills --by eating at the To promote a means of acquaintance among freshmen, the fraternities at the University of Indiana have devised a plan by which all fraternities on the campus will exchange freshmen on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

An apple will be presented to the interpreting journalist who writes the articles, and a book is published of Drake University. The artifact is to be lodged by the memorial service.

Three classes of the University of Utah have decided to adopt the custom of having a distinctive dress for each class. Suggestions, including a long skirt and open-ended pants of the seniors, have been cont in. Those being considered are mittens, corsages for the girls, spats for the boys, or an sweater which could be worn over the shirt. Corses can be戴 red with white trimmed or must be red with white trimming and be named the "NS."
