September 17, 1910, at the post office at Law rence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1892 MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1927 SUMMER HAPPENINGS What has been the main trend of summer events? When summer entered, the name "Lindbergh" was on the lips of all. The flying fool had journeyed over the Atlantic's expanses. He brought glory to himself but he did not realize what tragedy his glory would bring to almost a score of other aviators who tried to emulate him. The first of June found Sacco and Vanzetti in a Massachusetts prison hoping—as they had for seven years—for additional opportunities to prove themselves innocent of murder. Their fellow-men finally determined them unit to live. Their death caused international indignation. The flood that was sweeping across the lower Mississippi was beginning to subside at the first of June. Today many families are still desolate. The nation has turned its back to the deplorable conditions in the flood regions. When the spring semester closed, nine students out of ten might have assigned the next presidential chair to Coolidge. But the president "choose" differently. Today the nine chances out of ten are assigned to other men. The delegates to the tripartite conference at Geneva went with high hopes of finding a happy solution to cut down naval armament. Today the conference has closed. The decision is left for the future. From a national and international point of view the events of the summer have been none too gratifying. The naval disarmament conference brought few good results. The Saco-Vanetti execution was a cause of unrest. Indiana's crooked politics may be indicative of what is going on behind doors in other parts of the country. DEGREE WORSHIPPERS Some students come to college with a desire to learn. This is a strange attitude for a freshman to have, but nevertheless it is sometimes true. When a student becomes a sophomore he has found that there are many interesting things about college life besides study. Nevertheless, the average student makes his best grades during the first semester of his sophomore year. In addition, he has a good time. The junior is unpleasably bored by the end of the first semester. He would like to quit school and go to work, but he is so near a degree that it seems a shame not to go ahead. Then, too, the folks want him to be a college graduate. The senior comes back with a determination to get that degree and have it over with. If he happens to be the kind that likes to investigate, he feels that it would be interesting to stay out of school for a semester and digest the courses he has taken. He would like to read fully some of the things he has accidentally noted while doing his required work. But that would put off receiving his degrees, so he sticks to it. gad, so Degree worshipers, nearly all of us. What care we for learning? or for general culture? Slick to the required course of study. Learn the things that will produce A's when quiz time comes round. Most of all study the "prof" and learn and believe what he wants you to learn and believe. Supposedly, a college, education opens up unexplored vista to the student mind and arouses within him to explore to them after his college days are over. Supposedly, in reality it does nothing of the nort. When most of the seniors receive their degrees, education to them will be a closed book. They peruse its contents and receive their rugs. Then they forget this book lore and get down to practical things. There is a vast difference between the title of "former student" and that of "A. B. 27." Presumably, the gentleman with the A. B. known his onions, while in reality his may be a bigger boob than the confluenver down on the next street. A FAIR REQUEST The request of some of the downtown merchants that students carry their registration cards with them while downstown is eminently fair and just. The business man of Lawrence town merchants that students carry their registration cards with them when downtown is eminently fair and just. The business men of Lawrence have always shown themselves more than willing to do everything in their power to help students individually and the University as a whole. Here is a chance for the students to do a little favor for the business man, and at the same time help themselves. It is not that merchants do not trust students. Rather, they trust them so much that they are often taken advantage of by those paying as students. Hence, the request that students present their registration cards, particularly when asking for credit, is most reasonable. Furthermore, having his registration card handy often saves embarrassment to town himself. Summer Sidelights From Mt. Grace John F.
