THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Lawrence, Kansas
Phones: K. U. 25 and 66
The Daily Kaanan aims to picture the undergraduate and graduate students, who write their thesis at the rather price list, using the name by standing for the idea. "Kaanan" is the surname of a teacher; to be clean, to be careful to be humble, to be honest. To have more serious problems to handle, in all to serve the heat of its ability the Kaanan students find.
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1923
The Kansas City Star thinks the student advertiser who offers a 3-tube radio set for sale feels the urge to get down and some studying. It's not that. It's just that the professor forgets he has broadcasted that lecture jokes three times already.
MOHAMMED AND HIS MOUNTAINS
From five hundred Kansas high schools there will be graduated next spring, two or three thousand young people, many of whom will be looking toward college—and wondering. K. U. stands ready to welcome them. But like Mohammed of old, if the students do not come to K. U. then K. U. must go to them.
The agents for just this work are found in the county club now being organized on the campus. Their plan is to send over each county in the state, during the holidays, a group of wide-a-wake students, talking for the University in their homes, and from high school assembly platforms.
"Go to college; K. U. welcomes you' will be their slogan, as they seek to bring the message of the state university to those thousands of potential Jiahawkers.
Every student on the campus is automatically a part of the machine to advance K. U.; every student on the campus owes it to his University and his state to support this county club project.
OIL STOCKS AND THE NORTH POLE
A misedleist the "ad" wants a saxonist to play for one-half his board. A fellow like that deserves to subsist on half ratios.
Dr. Cook, once garrilled with the wreaths of a hero-worthy shipping crew, today faces a term behind prison bars for a gigantic oil swirl
A Mandeville of the twentieth century, he confused his dreams with reality, his hopes with facts. And he pays the penalty, whether his activities lay in the realm of exploration or oil dealing.
He cheated and he lost the game.
When he emerges from prison in 1943, the science with which he trifled, and which he dishonored by his swindle of a credulous public, will have advanced far.
The North pole may be available, then, to the casual traveler. But, Dr. Cook, behind iron bars, can take no part in new advances.
Another headline says "Tex" Kick "took in" nine millions, not designating whether they were similians or ticket holders.
"THE BIRTH OF A NATION"
Zip, zip, go the scissors of the motion picture board of censorship of Kansas slashing out many feet of film shown in other states. A woman smoking a cigarette, a man drinking some ginger ale, and a woman's ankle depicted. Frightfull! Are the members of this board appointed by Governor Davis, overlooking great points in their zeal to clean out questionable details that in fact do not make any marked difference?
The attorney general seems to think so in his appeal that the film "The Birth of a Nation" be recalled. The Governor has allowed its entrance and sees no reason why it should not be shown.
A storm of disapproval has arisen from influential men throughout the state. Perhaps they are playing in

politics, but if "as a citizen, a father, and as the chief law enforcer of the state" Mr. Griffith objects there must be something more than politics back of his action.
The charge is made that the only reason for showing the picture in the state is commercial, that the people are not demanding it. In other states where this film has been shown people have hissed because "it dials with an exaggerated type of race problem and reproduces in such fashion as to excuse bitter racial sentiment and hatred."
It would seem that if such is the case it is not advisable to show such a film at this time in Kansas. With the Ku Klux Klan situation sleeping down to a large extent it would tend to arouse old animosity. It is the duty of the people of Kansas to investigate the matter and bring pressure to bear when it is needed to safeguard her civilization.
HAIL TO THE HIKERS
Some students take gymnastics, some play football or basketball, or go out for track. Others hike.
Hail to the hikers! Their names are not in the sport columns, nor their pictures in the Jayhawker sessions devoted to athletics; no "rawhs" encourage them. Traveling singly, in couples or in groups, they set out to gain a few hours recreation.
Campus Opinion
Fe the Editor of the Kansan:
They have their rewards for they return with freshened minds and renewed ability to perform the work at hand.
To the Editor of the Kansas:
Your columns this week carried a statement which cannot be allowed to pass unchallenged, a statewide policy that presents unfortunate condition of the German people was a result of the French occupation of the Ruhr. The placing of responsibility for such conditions is not a simple matter.
In 1919 and 1920 German manpower prices in foreign markets them in foreign markets at prices far below production costs in other countries. This was possible because their labor was paid in the depreciated German currency, while money in the US is valid or currency of other countries. The latter went into the coffers of the operating companies, while returns to labor and taxes to the German government were in debased cur-
From that condition it has been a continued story of debasing the mark and the acquisition of productive properties by monedged interests
Something is overlooked by those who criticize France for her occupation of the Ruhr. They forget that after waging a war for which she was victorious, the German disbanded as soon as the tide turned against her, Germany acknowledged a debt which she was honor bound to pay.
Germany's power to buy wheat was destroyed long before France took action. Even if she could have purchased it must be remembered that all Europe is dominated by an expressively low价 priced market. Russia and Romania have been growing wheat in the last year at prices far lower than those of the product. The Argentine wheat grower is five cents per bushel near Liverpool, on transportation basis, than the Kansas farmer.
A continued story of debasing the mark and the acquisition of producing properties by moneyed interests. When France determined upon the policy of occupation, the Berlin government persisted in its course and its treasury was saddled with the burden of war in a still stinking city like the Ruhr. Rather than permit the returns of industry to go to France instead of into the pocketes of capitalists, the government advocated cessation of production.
Meanwhile, the value of the currency has gone to unheard of low levels. Somebody is at fault, but it is fair to say it is France in the minimum direct benefits would have gone to millions of Germans and the treasure would have been spared a tremendous burden.
They even forget the conditions of the Versalles treaty. They forget that certain capitalists were witting to make such a mistake should have gone toward the indemnity. Why not be fair to France, even if we do not agree that all her workers should pay more.

From the Kansas Review:
"It is now in order for each student to set apart about half a term" work for the holidays, and never to forget of after the vacation begins."
"Miss Belle Stevens, 7s, is teachin
ghe government school at the Sac
and Fox Agency. Among her pu-
rials, a Webster and an
Alice Carey."
"The dance given by the Young men's Social Club on the evening of the 27th was largely attended, there being no less than fifty couples at supper. It was not one of those for which you had a chance to time. The music furnished was excellent and everyone seemed to enjoy himself, even till after 2 o'clock."
"The latest is that two more dashing young juniors are engaged, and contemplate in the near future a wedding tour to Europe. The press release of this week reunion of the class of '81 in classic Rome, about the year '88."
"Some wicked' boys rang the town clock bell on the night of the meteoric shower."
"Chas. Scott has changed his boarding place. He now rooms on Tennessee street."
"Look for the young lady's name written on Hopkins' chair in the physics class."
"It is expected that there will be at the next commencement ten graduates from the Collegiate department, ten from the Normal, and as many from the Law. We may look forward to an interesting time."
"For the want of a gymnasium the boys meet at the library' for boxing and wrestling."

This is the Fable of the Lume who went to a Hill Party and found everything there except the Turnstiles and Bleachers, including the Ticket Scalper and some Referees that didn't know where they were. That kicking and Slugging were Bared, and wondering what a Guy should do when the chaperone shakes a Wicked Elbow in your face, Smiles Effectively, and Plants one of her hands. He wished old Kelly to call an Off-Tackle play and go thrue for a Touchdown, but instead played Safety and consequence was thrown for a Loss, until some big Lout came abroadside and Blocked him, taking his Stair Team-Team, and sending he the Side Lines, yelling to Time Out.
