The Daily Kamanim aims to picture the undergraduate life as it was, and more nearly gives us the news by standing for the ideas it presents. It is to be known: it is to be cheerful; to me to be kind; to be intelligent; to be more various; to be more ingenious; to be more inviting to move to the front of its ability to communicate.
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 19. 1923
From the clamor that arises from Jayhawker solicitors stationed in front of Green hall, the stranger might well imagine that he is somewhere near the K. U. Union depot.
INTOXICATION IN UNIVERSITIES
The recent final disposition of the cases of improper conduct on the part of certain of our students, and the demonstration at the Drake-Kansas game by intoxicated men of another school in which they disgraced themselves and their school, ought to impress K. U. students with the distractive effects of liquor on the reputations of individuals and of institutions.
It may be regarded, in the main, as a person's own business if he repairs to the brush, chains himself to a big rock, and then proceeds to break the laws of man and nature by getting pleriously drunk. But the drunikari must himself admit that to exhibit his weakness for liquor publicly is to bring heart-ache and disgrace upon all with whom he is connected.
The modern girl gets all dressed up in a cross-country habit and the goes "hiking" in a motor car.
THESE GRAY DAYS
There are days in late autumn that make us feel as if the world had stopped its wheels to listen. The air is still and a cool gray haze abolishes every tint of color. The atmosphere is quiet, the air is cool, but not bitingly cold.
This is a good time to study trees. Character stands cut everywhere. The elm is meedy under the influence of gray surroundings and the oak looks stubborn. Evergreens never quite lose their brightness, but dripping off the mist, they do not appear out of harmony with the gray gloom of the day.
Nature truly is an artist in sentiment. These gray days are just as necessary as the bright life of June, or the heartful days of October.
It's a good thing someone invented the telegraph. If he hadn't how could Hill students wire home for more money?
CULTIVATE TOLERANCE
One hears much about quitting school at the end of two years' work because the subjects aren't practical or applicable to the profession the student has chosen for his life's work
Youth has such a profound respect for its self and for its point-of-view. Its thoughts, conversation, and acts hinge on I, my, mine and me. Maturity laughs at youth, and gaze with superior air at its petty inters. But, maturity laughs with tolerance. Youth in turn laughs at maturity for its old offishness and lack of rep. Youth laughs with contemptuous impatience.
Youth craves to be in the "know" to manage affairs and in so far as possible control its own destiny. Will business be willing to trust vital problems to the judgment of intolerant youth? No. Youth must acquire a broader viewpoint, a deeper understanding of its fellowmen. Conditions in every vacation, every stage of experience, present new and engrossing problems which cannot be handled by self-centered youth.
The newtmarks nwadags are mis-raising a great hue and cry, to judge from their app arances. The hues are all that can be produced in printers' art. The cries are to the curious and seekers after the worst in paper thrills.
It would seem that all the bathing beauties and others in the realm had become artists models from the figures on the covers of the periodicals. There are enthralling scenes of action depleted, and the reader, or observer, is invited to buy and find out if the cocktail womn, who on the cover, is in the clutches of the villain, will be rescued.
When it comes to contents, these parasites of the press offer all that one could wish—in good material for starting the firewood fuese. The nickels, dimes, and two-bit pieces of the passersby are being hared from the pocket in exchange for scraps of white paper which should have never even wristers' ink—considering what appears on the paper.
Simultaneously with the announcement that the United States is becoming a nation of lions, comes the one that more people are taking to golf
SHAKE HANDS!
At a recent conference a friendly professor extended his hand to a delegate in an effort to make the stranger feel comfortable and at home. He was embarrassed when the delegate ignored this advance and merely nodded her head.
Every day this incident occurs many times, causing much embarrassment and confusion for both parties. Often it happens through carelessness or thoughtlessness. It occurs not only when dealing with outsiders, but with University students. Many who shake hands do it so limply that the person who is just meeting them receives a poor impression.
A though hands shake at the time of introduction, or upon meeting a friend is not the proper thing to do in all places, long practice has made it the custom in the University. Certainly one of the first things that a person coming to the University should learn, if he has not learned it before, is to shake hands properly, for "by your handshake you shall be induced."
Barring accidents, it is safe to preflect that one can always beat the train across the crossing.

Our attention has been repeatedly called of late to the uncertain situation in the Philippine Islands. Two weeks ago, a news report that Philippine independence, have been introduced in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives. These facts call for the oration of an intelligent public opinion.
The Jones Bill passed in 1916 had as its avowed purpose the retention of the Philippines only so long as the presence of the United States may secure it, and the United States would obtain. Specifically stated in the Jones Act, it is said: "It is, and always has been, the purpose of the people of the United States to withdraw their sovereignty over the Philippine Islands and to recognize their independence as son of the government can be established."
Relations between the governor general and Filipino members of the council of State and Cabinet became increasingly strained until on July 17, 1923, the Filipino members of The Senate and Cabinet, and Cabinet, returned en masse.
Commenting upon this resignation, President Quezon said: "There is no attack upon the sovereign power of the country in a test against the encroachment by the governor general upon the constitutional rights already enjoyed by the Filipino people, and against the governmental direct violation of existing laws."
Now whatever may be the deep dark secrets about the sixteen bills vethed by the governor general, including one carrying an appropriation bill to pay for a crum and one requesting the United States for a department of health.
whatever may be the facts about the governor general's alleged usurpation of power in the National Bank controversy, in the railroad difficulties, in the sugar central control, and in the operation of the mines, the fact remains that the governor general is responsible for something which the Jones Bill intended.
How! By altruizing freedom of speech. To do this is to strike a death blow at organised public opinion upon which any democracy must finally be reckoned by the writer from America and in the islands, contained the following quotation: 'There are some other things that seem un-American to the Governor. We can not take part in any religious or political discussion or utter opinions in class about politics. I know that before I came, but what I did not know was that the students are under the same limitation. Such topics as Philippine self-government, the Wood-Qeeson row, or American history are not freedom of speech is to render a people impatient to prepare for self-government. Is our revolutionary attempting to establish
Some people stay mad because they can't remember what they got man about in the first place.
