TORCHLIGHTS AND SUCH
Consciously or unconsciously,
the two political parties, in their torchlight parades last night, symbolized the campaigns which they are staging.
Torchlights have long since been antiquated; superior lights have replaced them. A flirting light, they make...for a few minutes, but only a few. The light they shed is ghostly, flickering, smoking, of no utility. But, then, that's like Hill political campaigns--blatant parading of false issues.
When the results of the election are announced, note carefully the winning candidates. They are having their flare, but it will subside and you will never hear of them again.
If, in future elections, the losing party were forced to clean up the campus, the politicians would have some reason for wanting to win.
THE INDIANA PROBE
Thus far the Indiana pose has created considerable attention, but has proved little. The principal witness, D. C. Stephanon, former Ku Klaus knae, now serving a life term in the state penitentiary, has failed to give any definite testimony to the public.
In the meantime the country is waiting to see what develops. The indications are that the public will have a long wait, for the whole investigation is being carried on under such secrecy that it is impossible to draw any definite conclusions.
Whether anything definite will ever be proved in this investigation or whether the charges will remain an mystery, the effect will be far-reaching. With the power in Congress so nearly balanced between the two parties, this probe may be the deciding factor in determining whether the Democrats or the Republicans will be in power.
One writer has said the investigation will have little effect on national politics. But politicians are anti-awaiting developments in the case, so that they may know in which direction to point their political guns. It may be, as this writer points out, that the American people will vote regardless of the outcome, but the politicians are taking no chances. Similar cases have decided campaigns results before this.
Meantime, the Republicans have turned the Vincennes editor out of the party for his alleged party disloyalty in instigating the investigation.
JAMES WILLIS GLEED
"The most effective of all teaching is a life well lived."
These words, spoken of William Herbert Carruth by his lifelong friend James Wills Glieed, may well stand as a tribute to the life of the speaker himself. For, surely, among the alumni of this institution, there is none to whom these words may better be applied.
From the time when he became an instructor in ancient languages at his Alna Mater through his years of service in the law, James Wills Glied stood for and exemplified all those things that he admired so greatly in the life of that dearly-remembered friend. With the principle of beauty an aim ever before him, he lived a life that was effective.
The old, old story of *funking* that last once because you couldn't find the particular reference book necessary is being repeated with the advent of the quiz season.
AN OLD STORY
When you suffer such dire consequences because someone takes a book from the library, contrary to rules, and keeps it out, the matter becomes one of violent concern to you. Your anger arises, and you vehemently denounce humanity in its utter lack of justice and honesty.
But when an oncoming exam threat ens, and you have not read the coveted book, there comes the temptation to make way with it, and use it at your own pleasure. It seems such a simple thing merely to walk out of the library with the book, once you have obtained it, since no one is there to bring you back forcomfort.
There will always be some injustice among human beings. - University students, of all people, should not deliberately teach the principle through their own practice.
Chemistry, says Studious Natie, is one of those subjects on which one works all day and over which one worries all night.
Once it is out, the matter of returning it is delayed, and the purity person forgets that someone else is suffering what he has once endured.
"Mindfulness or bust," is the popular slogan this week. Next week it will be, "Lawrence and busted."
SHOCKING
"My, that high school bunches is a first one! When I was back there, can you bet he never used to cut loose like that." The remark of a mortified parent or relative? No, merely a university student lamenting the growing wildness of the younger generation.
There are many students who feel exactly the same. Although they may overexert the line themselves they
une terribly surprised and shocked when younger brother or sister furnishes a little competition.
The most surprising fact is that with only a year or two separating the university student from the high school, until the former already
mother who is a trifle younger. The University student is as dumbfounded when his "bid brother" stirs up the old home town as his parents would be if he arraigned the wrath of Hill authorities over some encapade.
More surprising still, his parents have even the power to shock his delicate sensibilities. If mother gets a permanent and Dad a loudly-checked suit and then both go to a wild, middle-aged marty, the college youth is overhelmed. He may even try to remonstrate with father and mother and give advice, based on his worldly experiences, to brother or sister.
Why does he do it? Well, partly because he feels that all these others are mucking one of his peregatives--that of furnishing the nation with shocks. And partly, though he may not admit it, because he is at heart just as Puritanial as he accuses his children of being. It is one of the penalties of growing-up.
Theophilus thinks a few sky laws should be enacted to prevent so much rainy weather.
I am just beginning my freshman year at the University of Kansas. I have, of course, encountered many surprising things, but nothing has been so surprising or bitterly disapproved by his social caste system in the University.
Campus Opinion
I like to associate with interesting persons. In fact, I sometimes exert myself to meet such people. But because of my plebian makeup, I have, in the past few weeks, been frequently "chaffed."
Editor Daily Kansang:
Before coming to Lawrence I had seen students come back to my "home town" utterly devoid of individuality. They appeared to have been poured into a mound of conformity. I decided that theirs must be an affected manner and that they must surely be a democratic institution. Evidently, others of my high school classmates did not agree with me, since only two of them besides myself are enrolled here; and on the other hand, there are at least 25 or 30 of them in other Kansas schools.

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS;
In writing this I am not lamenting a disillusionment. I am not regretting that I came to K. U. It is a very beautiful place, the classes are interesting, and I am comfortable here. I wish merely to point out a condition, the correction of which would be a benefit to the University.
L. HANSON, Secretary.
Pamphlets, sent by University officials, say that a working student is respected. Perhaps this is true; but he is not accepted socially. For information on the status of not accepted by a fraternity for no other reason than the fact that the clite did not approve of the mental position that he held. In fact, I have heard of a working man in a fraternity in which he was prominent in activities.
I say "point out," but that is hardly necessary. It seems that everyone is aware of the caste system in operation here. Even the Chancellor, in his various appeals to students to help with schoolwork, is to be trying to rectify the condition.
If I were an official or a person of influence, I should not waste my time asking what ought to be done. I should not realizing my nonentity, I cannot but protest the injustice of the aristocratic element at the University of Kansas.
Yours truly,
The University of Oregon has been presented with an unusual collection of oriental art for their museum. The pieces will be on display before Thanksgiving.

Al Stanford University there is to be held the annual mud fight between the athletes and the freshmen. The battle is to take place in the bottom of Lake Lagunita. When a participant is thrown into the mud he becomes insigible for further participation and unless he proceeds immediately to the bull pen he will render his side liable to forfeiture.
At Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa., a great "Temple of Learning." 23 stories high and towering 350 feet above the street level, is proposed as the outstanding feature of a five million dollar group of new buildings to be created on the site of the present university units.
Bond issues, totaling $885,000, have been requested by the University of Cincinnati for a group of buildings to be erected on its campus in the near future. Eight hundred thousand dollars are needed for a central service building; and $85,000 for an addition to the University plant power.
Queen Marie of Rumania may visit Columbia, Mo., and take part in the formal dedication of the memorial tower and stadium. An invitation has been extended by President Stratton Brooks of the University of Missouri and Frank B. Rollin, president of the Missouri Alumni Association.
At Dartmouth college all upper classmen are required to take part in some athletic activity three times a year. Other classes, less exasperated absences are allowed a year.
