The Daily Kaiser aims to picture the daily lives of people who are unable to go or rather widen their privacy; the need for the ability to be standing for the aids; the need for them to be clean; to be helpful to be able to help; to have more serious problems to handle; all to serve to the best of its ability the needs of the people.
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 14. 1923
a bandit recently robbed a Piggy Wiggly store. That is the result of having a motto "Help Yourself."
FROM BLACK TO BURT
Harold Burt was elected last night at the annual Rotary Club banquet to lead the 1924 Jayhawkers on the gridiron. In his three years at the University he has shown himself a leader in scholarship, in school activities; and for two years has been one of the dependable ground gainers or the Kansas football squad.
Burt takes up the work where Charles Black leaves off, in the captaining of an undefeatable football team. Black has shown his ability as a leader in football and now takes up the leadership of the basketball squad.
MORE MEXICAN TROUBLE
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is writing
his reminiscences. Let's hope that
he will get into the spirit of the thing.
MORE MEXICAN TROUBLE
Fate has taken pleasure in the last few years in demolishing popular myths, particularly those which pertain to the artificial personalities created for men who occupy seats of the mighty.
There was the Italian general who was to pierce the Austrian lines and crumple up the right flank of the Central powers.
And then, there was Obergeon who with his tact, tacuity and persistence was to bring peace to Mexico. He seemed to have almost accomplished his task when there came the charge from de la Huerta interests that Obergeon had permitted Callez to seize the machinery which would control the next election, and the counter-charge that de la Huerta's supporters were doing the same thing.
Perhaps it was beyond Ohioeon's ability to compel a peaceful election for the presidency which he can hardly take another term.
If Mexico could have gone through that election in peace and Oregon taken his office uncontested, democracy might have become fixed.
Perhaps it was beyond the ability of Calles and de la Huerta to resist the urgency of followers of victory, and so abide by the placid process of the polls.
Now, whether de la Huerta upsets Obregon and later conquer Calles; or Obregon by force of arms qualls the inurrection and establishes order by military means, the spell of peace is broken.
The people of Mexico are not ready for self-government, and as a result the governing power is usually in the hands of the strongest and most unscrupulous general who can gain control.
The Mexican public must be educated, for intelligence and active participation in politics by all the people are necessary factors in constitutional rule.
Snap courses occasionally bite at the final.
HOLIDAY BOOZE
The holiday booze rush is on. A New York paper reports that "rum runners" are importing increasingly large quantities of booze, and that both guys are becoming even more active in the distribution of "booch."
Apparently there are still plenty of people who are willing to laugh at the law, and tempt fate,—by celebrating with boozer whisky.
people who are willing to laugh at the law, and tempt fate,—by celebrating with bootleg whiskey. A young man of good reputation celebrated in this way a short time ago. When he recovered his senses, he found that he had disgraced himself at a dance, killed a policeman, and was hinseil mortally wounded. In Pittsburgh, Pa, ten deaths in as many days resulted from drinking this "hooch." Statistics reveal eight hundred bootleg deaths in the United States in six months.
Yes, "wet" sympathizers can get their booze if they want it and care to take the chance. But is it worth to take the chance. But is it worth it!
Some persons enjoy life; others live to enjoy and are disappointed.
POLITICS AND THE SOUTH
POLITICS AND THE SOUTH The Republican party is preparing to invade the South. It has been announced that southern states will have a voice in the 1924 convention, as of old. It is also to be remembered that President Coolidge appointed his secretary from the state of Virginia.
Formerly, the South was supposed to go solid for the Democrats with no hesitation whatever. But in 1920, a vast Republican vote was cast in the southern states. Even Tennessee went for the Grand Old Party.
What is the meaning of this sudden turn to the South? It means that sectionalism is breaking down. The interests of the manufacturers in the North are the interests of manufacturers in the South. The two parties are becoming universal in their respective fields. The nation is more united.
Intuition usually tells a woman when a man is fundless but it doesn't always function over the telephone.
JUST FEET
A woman with feet only six and one half inches long has just stepped into the limelight in the East. She believes she has smaller feet than any other American woman.
Whether an extremely small foot is artistic depends on the height. The standard of beauty established by the ancient Greek sculptors decreed that a foot to be artistic must be a sixth or seventh the height of the body. The American woman of today is becoming more sensible in all forms of dress than her sisters of yesterday. She dresses for comfort more than for style—which, needless to say, is making comfortable things stylish. No longer will she cramp her foot in a shoe that hurts, and as a result the feet of the women of this country are coming to resemble more nearly the human foot as it was designed to be.
There are getting to be almost as many movie dates on Friday and Saturday nights as there are during the week.
At The Theater
“Bringing Up Father” had the name against it, “Venus” had the name in its favor, and the latter was a poor show, while the former was a fairly good show. It is really one of the wonders of the age, that the show last night was the best of its seen for some time.
by red wear
One word of warning seems necessary for the actors and the musical director in the show. They must dress themselves brightly night after the Hawaiian chorus was gone off the stage, there was a good curbusture of honest applause for their work. Of allowing the chorus to take the encore, the principals
Finally the leading haul, to quail the angry mob, sang the song, overgrain but the chorus was not forthcoming. The audience was not satisfied and applauded long and loud. More and more principals were brought onto the stage to indicate the presence of a violin or no applause. But the audience had found the thing they liked and wanted more of it.
At this point Dinty Moore phaint
showed his irritation, or possibly pro-
fessional jealousy, that the chorus
should be demanded so continuity.
The leader of the orchestra told the
principal to go directly to the final
curtain. And so the show was ended
prematurely, due to the enthusiasm
