The Daily Kunun aims to picture the life of a woman who is going on to further more willingly imitate the ways she by standing for the ideals she desires; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be tidy; to be more serious; and to learn more serious lessons. All to serve to the best of its ability the highest quality of life.
TUESDAY, JANUARY 15. 192
Let us hope the House member who advocates a "city bloc" in congress, intends to front it and with an Avenue of Accomplishment, and a sane bit of curbing, minus the usual parking space.
UNDERTAKING
A liquor abstinence card was signed on the floor of the House yesterday. Rep. Harold D. Upshaw of Georgia affixed his signature, in the midst of a spirited exchange on prohibition. One might think the 18th amendment a patent medicine testimonial or a code of morals, drafted for and followed at the will of the senatorial profession.
Congressmen can't seem to agree on who shall conduct the post-funeral rites of J. B. They ought to be arrested for grave robbing.
THE LAST FIVE MINUTES
Press reports show that the collii of Tutankhamen was marred by careless royal pal bearers. They must have been the progenitors of the American piano mover.
One can see them during the last five minutes in nearly every class—the girl who stares abstractly out the window with thoughts on the next class or the afternoon; the boy who looks at his watch very often and holds it to his ear to make sure that it hasn't stopped; the young thing who powders her nose and arranges a whip of hair, takes an inventory of her bag and gathers up her books; the final-hopper who unwinds his legs from the chair in front, closes his book with a suggestive snap, grabs his hat and coat and gets on his marks for the starting whistle.
The students are always the same but not the professors. Some talk on, giving the important summary of the lesson, apparently obliquely to the disturbance; some frown and reprimand the class; and others grin and give up the struggle to that propagator of disrespect and thoughtlessness, the last few minutes.
An Ohio editor says, "I often hap pens that the chip a man carried or his shoulder fell from his head" and knocked off by his own clumsi ness.
COMING UP
If Lawrence still prides herself on New England tastes and is typical of the pigrim father philosophy, mentioned by William A. White, its theatre-gourds might dust off its appreciation of the "Courtship of Miles Standish" and apply it to the stage and film on Massachusetts street.
This week in Lawrence found the uncommon thing in the average American stock company—the almost orient, "Irene" was clean, clever and comical.
And to "Doug" McLean should be awarded the extra two cents on gaudiness, because he is always refreshingly foolish and doesn't know vulgarity or slapstick. He is "Going Up."
Now that they've scrapped her battlehits and are relegating his "cup cake" cake to Davy Jones locker, the "Gob" is thinking seriously of nursing toy row boats on the White House lily pond.
LO. THE POOR PRODIGY
He could read and write at the age of two. At nine, he delivered a lecture to Harvard professors on the fourth dimension. He entered Harvard at eleven and was graduated four years later. Then came two years of graduate work in mathematics. He spoke six languages fluently, and was hailed as the greatest of infant prodigies.
Now, at the age of twenty-six eight years after graduation, the young genius is receiving $23 a week as a statistical clerk in a New York business office.
There is more truth than frivolity in the college admonition, "Don't it studies interfere with education."
We're strong for the freedom of the press, but we do wish they'd suppress the story about dinosaur eggs selling for $50,000 apiece. Our grocer might see it.
The traditional sanctuary of the American male may be returned to him. "Women Want Their Own Barber Shops," shows a headline.
"Irene" is booked again for next year. It is to become associated with the other two Inventables, Death and Taxes.
A hen of Eureka, Calif., is reported to have laid an eight ounce egg, measuring ten and one-fourth inches in circumference. But then, that's a California hen.
The University is closely following the usual schedule. The Men's Student Council are reporting already on the new constitution.
H. G. Wells, noted English writer,
claims Lloyd George and Lord Nor-
cliffe were failures. "They spawred
themselves across humanity." Mr.
Wells, some people sprawl and some
people scrawl.
Now that congress is through discussing it, we are waiting for Mr. Gumps comment on the Bok peace plan.
At The Theater
By Ted Wear
Two one-act plays, Clare Kummer "The Robbery," and "On the Stairs," from the book, "Houses on Mean Streets," were features of the Miami League program at its meeting in the Theatre, Green hall, Monday night.
In the first, Mrs. A. J. Mix did exceedingly well in the part of Evie, the heroine, Clarence Grubbs made a good character portrayal in the part of John, the father; and Mrs. Mitchell, as the mother, was very good, and he made an outstanding performance. Charles Farris had the part of Bob, the hero. The play was directed by Russell Culver. The second play was both adapted from the book and directed by Margaret Larkin. The dialogue between two cockney women was brisk and the phrasing unique. Miss Palmer wrote a character resume in Lawrence dramatics. Miss Duncan Palmer, who had the part of the other woman, will be remembered for her role in Susan Gaspeill's "Close the Book," which was presented last year by the league. The doctor was played by Archibald Oliver, who appeared last month in Lady Gregory's
Cards were given out to the members that they might designate their preference in work on committees for decorating and costuming. The new plays were not decided upon but trials will be held in two weeks.
"Irene" was one of the best musical comedies that has recently visited Lawrence. It proved to be rather peppy, musical, and had a fairly balanced balance. The cast and chorus were good, the scenery was passable, and the score of the show is too well known to need comment. There was some very good dancing, some good comedy, and a few clever lines. The various characters in the production were well cast and plausible enough to put the show over.
"Irene" is the usual Cinderella story of the ugly duckling who proves to be the proverbial "knockout" in the latest modes and fashions of the young and struggling modiste, Mme. Lucy. Of course, the hero realizes his great love for Irene in the last act and everything ends in the usual shower of roses and best wishes for the engaged couple. When she learns the sort of show and it is not bad fare, Dale Winter in the title role of the

Two of the best dancers seen here this year were Mary O'Moore and Gladys Nagle. Their dances were outstanding in the performance. Mine, Lucy, played by Jere Delleane, was rather good as a dancer and fairly skilled in a silly sort of part. Dorothy Dane was likewise a good dancer.
