WATCH OUT!
Stop, look, and listen. Cupid is out for bearts today, and may snatch yours and trade it to someone else.
The ancient tradition of Valentine's day is still potent in this sophisticated, blase old world of ours, and the joy of living is still renewed when we receive a paper folder filled with sentimental verse every year.
According to the old English tradition, the first man a girl sees on Valentine's morning is to be her future love.
Or perhaps the matter was settled in the old days by having young men draw names of the maidens from a box which was prepared the night before. In this case, the maiden was to be the Valentine of the young man for the coming year, and he appeared sometime that day, bearing a gift.
This ancient observance of a lover's festival, wherein the young choose their mates, has taken many forms in its history since the first or second century, but it has prevailed, first in England and the continent, and then in the United States.
MORTAR BOARD
A foolish little observation perhaps—sending flowers or a red paper heart to the particular, one and only lady on Feb. 14, but still we do it. It is Cupid's day, and man must always be a little sentimental.
Their scholarship, character, and unselfish service to their University are the points on which the women are judged. The campus looks forward with interest as to the manner in which these standards of judgment have been applied with full confidence that they will be applied well.
Members of the honorary board, for senior women, Mortar Board, will be announced in the near future. Yearly the most representative women of the outgoing class are chosen to be members of this organization.
RECONNOITER
Yearly an increasing number of women are graduated from colleges who wish to make their way in the business world. Certain vocations are always open to them, so much so that they are considered women's professions.
But not all who leave the University are suited for these stipulated openings. Some wish to branch out, to handle a position in which they would reach their highest capability, to find new fields to conquer.
Vocational guidance week, which began today on the Hill under the suspices of the W. S. G. A., is for this purpose. Experts are presenting the facts of their fields, the scope, and the difficulties to be met. This week is the result of the realization of the need for information in the broader branches of women's work.
In many fields women still find it difficult to obtain positions and the vocational guidance lectures will give them a clearer insight into their chosen work if they have already decided upon their callings.
A decision as to one's vocation should be made early so that preparation to face the difficult time ahead may start as soon as possible. Vocational week is recomemter week for the women of the Hill.
THE DOVE'S HOMECOMING
After an absence of more than a semester, the Dove has returned to the camps, pink as ever in color, but somewhat dextral in tone.
In its recent issue the Dove gave the imposition of being more or less quixotic; it pecked at decrepit windmills with vigorous but wasted iconoclasm. It was further hampered by an inadequate number of contributors, and hence failed to express the divergence of opinion requisite to such a publication.
The Dove has a place on the campus. It is needed to bring to the fore campus problems which otherwise might remain for the most part unnoticed, and to provoke and crystallize student thought. It is to be hoped that in future issues it will serve this purpose.
AN UNSCHEDULED BOUT
"It is not!"
"It is the truth,"
"You're a liar."
"No person can call me a liar!"
Explosive language and martial cries rent the air. With fists clenched, two men made a rush at each other and a fight was averted only by a third person rushing between the two purifists.
No, this incident did not occur between two drunken sailors, nor was it between two grade school boys. The pupils were Karsana' own representatives in Congress; James G. Strong in Blue Ripals and J. N, "Poly" Tinter of Hutchinson, and the third party was no other person than the minent speaker of the House.
"Self-control is the primary require of virtue." Aristotle wrote more than two thousand years ago. But till some men who have the most responsible duties in the leading nation f the world have not learned the bore f the ancient Greek.
It will be a good thing when Americans can choose for governing them men who have first learned to govern themselves.
ARISE AND CRAR
"BID Nye, the humorous, once predicted the invention of a thinking machine. With the aid of this wonderful machine, he said, "two men with good brains could do the thinking for 60,000,000 people and feel perfectly fresh and rested the next day. Take four men, we will say, two to do the day thinking and two more to go on deck at night, and see how much time the rest of the world would have to go fishing."
Gangs of college men and women evidently take it for granted that the thinking machine is an accomplished fact. Their beads are jummed full of stereotyped, standardized ideas and beliefs. Their reaction to a given thing is a forgive conclusion. They are so "oat" in their ways that little short of T. N. T. could jar them out of their lethery.
They live in a world which change-
not and they don't give a dern if
it never does. A new idea has as much
chance with them as a bootlegger at
a W. C. T. U. meeting. Compared
with their brains, adamant is sponge
cake and the Rock of Gibraltar a toy
balloon.
Wake up and wipe the cobwebs from your eyes. Find out whether or not this old world is being run to suit you. And if it isn't, then exercise your God-given right to crab.
True enough, one man's spasmodic crumbling gets him now. But if he keeps at it long enough and is right ten per cent of the time, there'll be a long funeral procession when he checks out.
Editorials From Other Hills
Last week six officials from each Western Conference University met in Chicago and drew up a code of ethics for conduct in athletics.
The idea is a good one and the code is excellent, aimed principally at the practice of "rushing" star high and prep school athletes. The code proposes to make it illegal to grant scholarships, through any agency or other agencies. The officials recommend not other that alumni be discouraged from bribing outstanding secondary school athletes to come to their alma
--mater and that student migration to out of town games likewise be discouraged.

VOL. VIIH Monday, February 14, 1927 No. 108
CONVOCATION:
CRADES:
Students who did not call for their grades at the registrar's office has week, may call for them on Wednesday only of this week.
On the whole it is a very lovely code of ethics and if it could be enforced doubtless it would do considerable for Big Ten football as well. But for the life of university sports, but for the life of sports, cannot see how it will be enforced.
GEORGE O. FOSTER, Registrar
Campus Opinion
There is no cause for worry, however, for with or without the code of ethics, Western Conference ethics and the Code of Conduct a comparatively healthy condition.

The writer does not intend to convey the impression that all athletes are poor students or that all working students have a high scholastic standing. Certain it is, however, that a student who works outside four hours each day and some sport another four hours can not expect to do well in his studies.
It happens that there are students at K. U., who find it necessary to earn part or all of their expenses here, but who come primarily for an education and not to learn football or some other phase of athletics. Will each a student be denied work, which he must have to stay in school, in order to leave room for a man who comes to school, not to get an education, but to work outside. Such a policy is especially important because the scholastic standing of the athletic teams are in general below the University average.
Some time ago the organized homes received letters from the coaching staff in what they gave preference to athletes in employing student help, but now one home has already discharged the regular help to make room for athletes.
One other point is involved. If it not too much to expect of the employers that they employ athletes? Participation in athletics very often interfaces with outside work. For instance, if a man has a job of waiting for a bus or at a gym ball and be at work in time to have the table ready at 6 p.m. A man who is out for track or football cannot put in his afternoons working in a store. An athlete fortunate enough to be on the team must necessarily be absent from work several days a week. The coach may try to make the host outside workers may set as a check, therefore, on the movement of the coaching staff.—J. P.

Plain Tales From the Hill

A conversation overboard recently at n dinner which a Hill couple at tended:
She: Don't you know that it is im proper to use cream and sugar if your demi-tasse?
Many a man stumbles through life believing that n "pastel shade" is a window curtain.
He: Funny about that, but if you put cream and sugar in your dishnase it tastes just like coffee.
On Other Hills
In order to take care of all the building operations in the future, the University of Minnesota is asking the state legislature for a $100,000,000 trust fund which would yield an income of $80,000,000 annually.
The University of Utah has been paid a delicately compliment by the David Hoe Film Company of Hollywood which has chosen Utah's campus as an appropriate background for a chapstick comedy now being produced.
The students of the School of Journalism of the University of Missouri, with the aid of Gamma Alpha Chi, women's advertising security, will present Columbia's annual fashion revue, March 24. The revue will be the elixir of Fashion week, which extends from March 20 to 25.
The women's Pan-Hellenic council of the University of North Dakota has passed a role making clubs and other organizations to leave Tuesday night open so that there will be no conflict with the security meetings. University officials are co-operating as much as possible in their program.
Physical punishment as a form of freshman hazing at the University of California has been eliminated. As numerous accidents occurred the sophomore vigilante committee has decreed that the remainder of the year shall be held in freshmen's宿舍 of the freshmen. They shall be required to meet at certain intervals for tutoring in songs, traditions, and customs of the university.
Revision of the bill proposing a 500 tuition fee in all Missouri state educational institutions, was indicated today by Senator Painter, author of the bill, that the legislature would provide for the exemption from payment of students financially usable. Senator Painter is chairman of the senate education committee, to which the new bill will be referred.

It pays to look well
The marks of ability are manifest in good appearance. A trim, neat haircut, and a clear, fresh-looking skin can be had by regular visits to the barber that displays the shop card shown below.
It is sign that this barber is keenly interested in his profession.

The "pipe-wrestling" days are gone forever!
IF YOU KNOW any old dodo who still dotes on the idea that mastering a pipe means weeks of rough wrestling... a bitter struggle and not much sport after all... play him this record—it'll be melodious music to his ear-drums:
Licking a pipe into shape is today the most popular of all pastimes. Granger Rough Cut is making pipe-smoking the great American sport. Men who could never go near a pipe now quaff bowlful after bowelful of Granger . . .
For Granger's MADE for pipes . . . made by the grand old Wellman Mellowing Secret . . . and glue this in the old dodo's derby. A pipe packed with Granger is "20 degrees cooler inside"—for Grander's rough cut flakes burn with the spark retarded . . . slow and cool!
No better pipe tobacco was ever made, yet packed without frills it comes at a price that's truly a Scotchman's bargain.

Kresge's is a dignified business. It meets the everyday human needs of folks everywhere.
Any retail business that has grown to a volume of more than $100,000 may be required to obtain a prime price.
The S. S. Kresge Company has developed the art of retail store-keeping to the point where it may well be termed a science. Merchandise of standard grade is sold in Kresge stores—but the prices are higher than in stores that lack the organisation and resources of a great national institution.
There are already more than three hundred stores in the Kresge chain and new ones are being added constantly. For these new stores we have been carefully trained and Kresge trained.
A limited number of young men—college men of good character and promise—will be given the opportunity to train for these positions. Write at once and arrangements will be made. You will receive a letter from He will tell you all about our organization and the opportunities it offers college men.
