CLOSING THE GAP
The new freshman advisory system will fill a long-felt need. The University has never been able to answer the charge that personal attention given to the first year student here does not equal that of the small college. It has been ardently upheld that the gap between the high school to the University has been too great for the average student.
The new system will have a great part in bridging that gap. The confusion of enrolling, the hasty conference with a rushed adviser to determine a semester's course, and the long intervals between enrollment and the mid-semester, and between the mid-semesters and the end of the half-year, during which the new student receives no personal attention, will be eliminated. Each freshman will have someone to whom he can go at any time to discuss any problem. The matter of grades and the selection of courses will be handled in the privacy of an adviser's office, where sufficient time will be given each individual for all phases of the problem.
No freshman can afford to neglect this opportunity. No matter how determined he may be in the choice of his work, no matter how confident he may be in his ability to progress independent of any advice, the time may come when a frank, informal discussion will have proved to have been valuable. The experience of the adviser will prove to be a big help in assisting the first-year student.
The thing undone is the attention to the upperclassman. While the need of upperclassman in most cases is not so urgent as that of the freshman, yet there are many times when he would have welcomed an unhurried private conference instead of the hasty consultation on enrollment day, there are many times he would have welcomed advice in regard to activities and the amount of work he should carry.
The high place education occupies in the Middle West may be proved by the fact that the heads of three state universities, President Brooks of Missouri, President Bizzell of Oklahoma, and Chancellor Lindley of Kansas were ranked with the governors of the three states in the reception committee for President Coolidge at the Liberty Memorial dedication in Kansas City Thursday.
In deciding what shall be done with the upperclassman, the University will do well in considering that the choice of studies and the manner of work are just as big factors as the actual presentation in the classroom itself.
FELLOW KANSANS
Shortly after the Jayhawk-ager game this fall the Aggies gnieely pouenced on a Daily Kansas editorial declaring it an ilibit for the loss of the game. Gicefly, because it touched the Aggie sense of humor as appropriate for the victims of her redoubtable football eleven to assuage the pains of defeat in the time-honored method of offering an alib.
No one on the Hill wishes to dis illusion the Aggies concerning the editorial; the Jayhawk in all his pribids wish to retain the friendship of the Aggie Wildcat, as friendship goes in collegiate rivalries. Yet truth forces us to say that jaded and unless Hill politics was the burden of that particular article that gave mith and satisfaction to our worthes, and not an attempt at explanation of the
cause for defeat. It was admitted that the Jayhawk had been inglobularly humbled as never before in history; surely that is no alibl!
But that is all of the past and of outstanding merit in the present is the manner in which Jayhawk and Wildcat can meet in friendly helpfulness.
On the eve of the Jayhawk's revival to a genuine fighting factor in Valley gridion-shrimkes the Wildcat sends one of its lamed warriors to the camp on the Kaw seeking aid. The Jayhawk values its enemy and friend highly and so trusts that whatever beneficial service it can give the Wildcat star hafflag is given in a feeling of mutual good-fellowship and sportmanship.
A TOUR OF ABSURDITIES
Queen Marie has seen Kansas City and has departed. But she has left behind her the memory of a journey filled with absurdities.
According to a statement of the official host, every effort has been put forth to make her trip dignified and to divorce it entirely from any suggestion of commercialism and advertising. Yet everything that has happened has been thoroughly advertised. Her every move, slightest action or faintest murmur has been recorded and broadcast over the continent as an event of great moment.*
The Rumanian ruber said of Nigara, "It far surpasses any picture." Simple words spoken many times before, but of such importance when bid by a queen that the scene must be filmed, and, with the immortal words, shown in theaters throughout the country.
All the petty wrangling on the royal trunh has been faithfully recorded by the press and rumors of a family quarrel with the king have been published, only to be denied by Bacharest. National intrigue has even been hinted by the press agent of a dancer on board.
An eccentric millionaire invited the queen to the northwest to dedicate a museum which he built. The dedication is over, but the museum is still vacant. In another city the royal guest dedicated a peace portal, built by the same millionaire and previously dedicated by President Coolidge. One service by the president of the nation is not sufficient, if a foreign ruler is hardy to do it all over again.
The journey has been an inexpensive holiday for the monarch. The railways that carried her party and the cities that entertained her bore all the expenses. A friendship tour, she terms it. An advertising tour would be more accurate.
At the Concert BY JOHN SHIVLY
The audience last night was thrilled, but the thrill was from the brilliance with which the organization presented genuine masterpieces of musical composition, not from superficial spectacle. There was a thrill when the performer reached the climax of the overture framed by the four passages in the "Bachnakeh" from "Samson and Dellahl" were played with dazzling speed and precision.
Although it is perhaps unfair to compare the afternoon concert of one band with the evening concert of another, the fact remains that the United States Navy band presented a concert that approached much more closely than of a musical program given by the Navy in December. Sousa gave mostly an entertainment. She sent the crowd away thrilled with the spectacle, and laughing at the absurdities of jazz, but he presented only a little real music. The Navy band presented a program that contained some humor, but the genius of the whole concert is that of a musical program, not an entertainment.
While perhaps Souza stands at the top in the presentation of marches, the difference between his organization and that of night can hardly be distinguished.
There were the humorous numbers, some of which are in the realm of good music, others which have no place on a classical program. The band presented an event for the desire and the desire of the average person to laugh at the most chidish humor. Generally speaking, however, the band presented a program of real music, presented by an organization of musicians, instructors, and directed by a director who was a stellar musician as well as having a pleasing personality.
The Men's Glee club will meet for regular rehearsal at 2:30 Sunday, in

Out - of - the - Ordinary Coats
NO GARMENT for the winter is so necessary as the outer wrap—and if a coat is to be worn every day it should be first in fashion, and first in quality. And this season to be smart Paris says your coat must be lavishly trimmed. In the slim wrappy silhouette of the season one finds a wide variety of fabrics and fur treatments. We will be pleased, indeed, to show you our assortments and we're sure you'll find our prices most reasonable.
Miss Agnes Patricia Hartley, an attractive pledge of Theta Phi Alpha, appears in the illustration above in a smart dress coat of Sailor Blue venice trimmed at the collar and cuff with a lovely set of grey squirrel. The smart bloued effect in back adds that necessary touch of nearness to the silhouette. The hat worn at $10.95. The coat is $95.00.
