A STUDY IN QUIZZES
With the present day mania for group meetings and organization, it might be suggested to the advantage of both instructors and students, that the instructors plan some sort of schedule for mid-season examinations.
Finals are conceded to be a necessity, and are arranged accordingly. Even quizzes are accepted, if not with pleasure, at least with an appreciation of their real value. But the ir of all serious minded students is aroused by the injustice in the present method of administering mid-term examinations.
It is a tribute disconcerting to have anywhere from four to seven quizzes announced for from three to five consecutive days, and at the same time be expected to carry on the regular routine of laboratory work, writing themes, and outside reading. It is not a fair test of the student's ability. After dropping everything to review thoroughly for the first two or three quizzes, his other work usually begins to pile up so fast that he dips into that, and trusts to fate to help him through the remaining examinations.
Of course, each instructor naturally thinks his course is the only one of importance. But granting that, consider the poor student with five or six most important courses.
Review is necessary, but it is unreasonable to expect any student to review for Greek history, Advertising, French grammar, and sociology at the same time. Human minds aren't made that way, even in the case of the Dewtes and Shakespeares.
Our suggestion is more and shorter quizzes.
H. L. Menken has just finished a book on "Projudices." Is it really possible that Henry had them?
One student wondered recently if the fillers that were sent to the Kansas composing room were used in making the "p" spoken of so frequently in the back office.
THE WETS HAVE IT
Election results show a decided turn to the various wet candidates and wet referendums. In almost every instance of general import the wets won out. In Pennsylvania Vare had no race at all; neither did Smith in New York; nor the referendum there; in Massachusetts Walken routed Butler; and only in Illinois did the wet candidate, Brennan lose out, though the wet referendum won.
Although it must be remembered that the prohibition issue is not national in character, being distinctly localized, it is one of the dominant issues on display in the election. It is evident enough that it is having serious effects on party lines. The weta are constantly carrying more conviction with their arguments; and they are certily becoming effective in speaking their electoral voice.
With the election to office of wet candidates in both state positions and in congress the time is coming when modification is not only possible but probable. It will no longer be a question of saving the inviolable sacredness of a constitutional amendment but one of the abrogation of individual rights. This election is simply bringing the new problem more closely home.
Whether prohibition ever will be sufficiently the ideal of the nation so that it can become a law by moral virtue cannot be decided here. That it has failed on a national basis is almost never questioned any more, even though many request it to be practiced a bit longer in the hope of building up its lateral strength so that it will maintain itself. On the other hand it had been successful in state application. This apparently shows that the matter is sectional; that prohibition is a useful moral code where the masses uphold it, but that like a useless abolishment where the masses do not want it.
Since Chief Two Gun Whittecch
cook part in the buffalo barbecue at
the Haskell Pow-Wow last week, one
might say that one side of the nickel
feared on the other side.
The fact that the true front of the Administration building is the north side gives one the same sensation as the pretty girl who is so baffled that she forever turns away from everyone.

October in Kansas
(With apologies to the Karen
serbes whose eutypes of autumn have
graced the editorial menu for the pas
weeks.)
October in Kansas, monin of shift
seemery. Frost-bitten leaves,
searcy gaily to Texan, with rompifu-
rity in their vest pockets. Tumble weed
brown fields, like satmeling sheep
and pile against grannied barbed
brothers, beep gracefully over torres
whither others cling to cranking poets
and form a barrier for bitting, wind-
ering, and sweeping man stumbles across
the street after an elusive hat and picks
a panick in位 instead, blown in from
a ranch. We swear man home dressed in new fall styles struggle
upstream more stylish than ever,
their homes filled with windows,
home, make the mistake of digging
new ones ton feet up in the air. Realtors go vaulty uncropped out of windows
from parents' field have tinned.
Johnny comes in with the milk pal,
his ears tingling where grade of
man from parents' field have tinned.
marries brazenly across a sky that is
as innocent of a rain cloud as Eve wan-
ders, while the caressing autumn
breeze sweeps and whistles and tugs
at the curtains of night. October the

Miss Co-ed Plays Bridge
HIGH bid for Fashion's Favour goes to Ims' as a matter of course—where that which is authentically chic, undeniably new and supremely smart awaits fair feminine shopers. All the Honours are in Fashion's hand this season and the loveliest creations of her realm may appropriately appear at bridge tables wherever the Smart Set assembles.
Above you see Miss Peg Curry, from the Alpha Xi House, wearing a crook of hustons black satin that is decidedly different. The sleeve of doleman effect is embroidered in colors outlined in metal thread. Three tiers of tucking in the skirt gives a touch of smartness. The frock is priced at $25.00. The cut steel bag carried is made by hand in France and is most reasonable at $25.00.
