The description of "modern" youth popularized by Percy Marks is today little used, either because it was found untrue or because it has become merely shopworn. The former seems to be the case, for a word which conveys an idea will not drop out of image so suddenly. Just why youth no longer flames is hard to say, but a guess which is as good as any other is that youth never did. The period of unrest which followed the war, and which has not yet entirely disappeared, was one of those waves of interest which have swept over society from time immemorial and which are only now beginning to be studied. To call this most recent wave one of "youth" was popular simply because it seemed to exhibit some of the attributes commonly given to the immature. It was, and is, a wave of judgement of the old and search for the new. Because youth is inclined to such judgments and searches, it was called the youth movement. Soon we may have an old-age movement; and if we do it will be participated in by the young as well as the old. --it would help a great deal if students would not accept the presence of chaperones as a matter of course and treat them as a part of the furniture, but would remember that they are really granting a service to the students, and a service for which they receive no recompense. Women are "in" nearly every sport and business formerly considered exclusively masculine fields, including the horseshoe pitching contest now in progress in Florida, but not until we hear of the women of backwoods Tennessee taking part in barnyard golf contests there will we believe that woman is completely emancipated. COURTESY TO CHAPERONS One of the objectives of a college education is to learn courtesy and consideration for others. And one of the things that many University students fail to recognize is that it is at least a matter of courtesy to treat with some respect the women who are kind enough to chaperon the varity dances. Without their assistance, it would be impossible to have these dances at all. They like young people, or they would not inconvenience themselves enough to sit through a three-hour party which they enjoy but little, in order to accommodate the students. The chaperones are the hostesses at varities, and should be treated as hostesses would be treated elsewhere. Certainly students should be respectful and considerate enough to talk, and make the evening something more than three hours of dullness. KANSAS CITY, KAN., DOES IT Six reasons why Kansas City, Kan., in 1928 had fewer motor car deaths than any other city of over 100,000 population have been outlined for the federal government by the Chamber of Commerce there. All six point to one still greater reason for the city's low accident records; That the residents of Kansas City, Kan., acted to reduce accidents. Life was safer on the streets of this one city, not because its citizens warged their heads agily while agreeing that something should be done, but because they did something. The schools taught safety measures to the children. The city officials marked dangerous intersections, and not only made, but enforced, traffic rules. Owners of vacant lots permitted them to be used as playgrounds. And parents watched their children. Every citizen of every city agree that something must be done to prevent accidents. The citizens of Kanaan City, Kana, did something. At The Theater --representative in Lawrence Almost the entire University turned out yesterday afternoon and evening to see the greatest group of actors that has ever had, the Kansas players, present by Lord Dumany. The Bowerstock theater was crowded for both performances. Those who saw the play agreed that the participants deserved the georgeous criticism given them by the audience, as the Slubber theater in Kansas City, "IG," as a fantastic play, written purely for entertainment, in very successful as a lesson, and he who looks for a moral, a lesson, or even a mean character, characters were excellently cast and trained, and in spite of the varied scenes into which each act was divided a feeling of unity was sustained, due to the skill of the actor Curton carried the lead, and it his portrayal of the practical, and liberal-oriented young Englishman, who took the most abud situations seriously, that kept a dramatic atmosphere of incongruity throughout the Any stranger in the theater would have judged at once that as actors Professor Crafton, Prof. Robert Caldwell, and Professor Gallian Chelm, and as a jurist Lawrence audiences have probably never seen a better hit of interpretations of the Forlans, Ali, and Daoud. The acting of Hugh Douglas as Haffa of Accolain, was inferior to the original Carlederow, and his voice had noticeable dramatic possibilities. Harold Smith, who substituted for Brewster Morgan, who previously had given up the role to work in part up to a run with the others in the play. Morgan has given up his work in dramas because of his Rinches scholarship which prohibits his taking part in The interpretation by Laura Ballou of a charming and courting young woman was exceedingly well done and although her part was a difficult subjective one, she again demonstrates her mastery of the art. Her very thoughts and plans accress the footlights, into the minds of her audience. George Callahan's characterization of the understanding 'cooper was delightful, and his imposition of Bill, the trainee man, perfect. Callah was done here this year. Mrs. Allen Crafton's work in the part of Liza, the maid, was as notebly excellent as if she had had a lead, and Ethid Hindes, who took the air of Mary Beal, the home-loving professor Crafton, was very good. It is difficult if more onlookers can appreciate the time and effort that were put into the production, but it was a success, and the act, and it is but fitting to note that all the costumes were designed by Mrs. Crafton, and the scenery by Professor The smallest parts were carried well, and Ray Wright, Ralph Smith. The second part was the plowman, John McDonald, and Dorothy McClam describe a word of commendation and praise, as well as those who helped the banquet scene an effective one. Probably the most effective scene was the interior of John Bead's tent in A1 Shauldomir. The immense yellow and brown awning like draperies, the bright wallpaper, the wooden idols, let an air of languor, luxury, spaciousness, and odidity to the scene, and provided a realistic "Eastern" background for the movie. We have no other most important characters in this scene were Professor Crafton, who had spent days and weeks in preparing this background, and Professor Calibroud, who not only directed it, but carried a heavy part as well. It was unfortunate that many important lines in the first two scenes were lost to part of the audience, because of persons who were shown to their seats after the curtain was raised.
