The Daily Kuwait news picture to the students of the University is the Kuwaitan who go on further than mere printing the words by standing for the ideas they perceive; to be clear; to be clever; to be helpful; to be caring; to be serious problems to their wards; to solve serious problems to their wards; to ability the students of the University.
BALDWIN GOES OUT
BADWIN GOES OUT
The British have done it again.
What America can't do without four years and Tex Rickard to buy the Democrats a convention, England does overnight.
And labor has it. Stanley Balwin, protectionist, steps out to bow to the most ridiculed man in England seven years ago: J. Ramssey MacDonald, a Scot, and a labor leader. During the war, only the English sense of free speech him out of jail. Today the king asks him to govern.
And in America we would have sent him to Leavenworth.
A MATTER OF CURIOSITY
A MATTER OF COMOSITY
It is human nature for some people to wonder about things. No matter what happens they cannot see why it happened in that way. The other day in a local theater one of the features of the news reel was a big gun that Uncle Sam was making. It will shoot a charge of powder that would have furnished both sides with ammunition at Bunker Hill.
DOUG HAS A GUARD
In the photo section of the daily newspaper is another picture. It shows workmen tearing big guns apart, silencing them forever.
Another playhouse has been broken down. Little boys and girls all over the country now know that Douglas Fairbanks is being protected by heavily armed guards because he is afraid of the most desperate bandit in California.
What possible harm could there come to one so capable of defending himself and the lady he loves as D'Artagan or Robin Hood or Zoroe. A man who defied the guards of the king's palace and delivered a diamond necklace to his queen in spite of all the insurmountable obstacles that beset his path; a man who took Nottingham Town with only two of his followers and who defeated dozens of soldiers in the castle single-handed; a man who was a bandit himself in the Mark of Zoro and ridiculed the police.
But ah-h-h! Let us not forget. He was only playing them. Those swords were made of wood and those guns did not contain lead after all. And when the day was over, the bandits and the police went back to the studio and played pinchole together.
So perhaps it is only plausible that Doug should have a guardian angel watching over him and protecting him from a bad man who really is bad, and is not merely on Mr. Fairbank's payroll.
"Sow Kills Wolf" headline. Read ' like a packer's formula against poverty.
The fellow who wrote "The only present love demands is love," never went to college.
It is high time the statisticians got out their loos-leafs. What would be the estate of that cave-wife now if she had saved the five cents she invested in that dinosaur egg she forgot about ten million years ago?
A U. S. register of the treasury once signed his name 12,500 times at one sitting of forty-eight hours. He probably got his start in the college life of versatile preparation, writing 'em on Dad.
James London, of Toronto, Can,
wears six diamonds in his upper
deck of teeth, should never lose his
head over anything.
Speaking of economic courses, the whole of Europe seems to be failing in "Money and Banking."
It is estimated that there are 150, 000 earthworms to the acre of average farm land. And they say there's running short on bait for the "ones born every minute" to the acreage of oil land.
The details of the peace award were left to a woman. No wonder Mr. Bok can't tell how much he spent.
The former king of Greece swears at his collar buttons and inhales his soup. 'Cmon over Alexander. You must be a regular guy.
Jack Walton is the most appealing man.
The only thing we haven't done to make Obregon feel at home is to turn out our Salvation Army Lassies with frigtes and forcis for his army as they go through our southern states.
