The Daily Kanan aims to picture the undergraduate school go to further than merely拍新闻的媒体 by standing face-to-face with students who no favors; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be more active; to more aware problems to understand; in all to serve to the best of its ability the students.
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 5,1923
There should be two national speaking days; the day after Halloween, and the day after daughter returns home from college.
"I'M FROM MISSOURI"
An"I'm from Missouri" or most any other校 but Kansas and "show me" attitude is threatening to bind and gug the far famed Juggerant of loyalty and school pride, the Jayhawk.
The old fighting bird is being forced into a hard race to retain his feathered dignity by a clucking crew of student cynics who regard the proper functioning of an undergraduate as one which embodies the steaming, plucking and thorough roasting of the lanky bird on the grand stand gridiron, where they would dissect him limb by limb and lay him as carrion for the vultures of the Valley.
Even his one-time best friends would shackle him and sacrifice him on the pyre of scorching criticism. There are enemies in his camp who hold a sack to bag their game and collaborate in attempted efforts to cover Kansas pride with a wet blanket of jeers. They would hogtie the school by their destructive know-it-allness and bellittle its spirit by chronic observations. These are they who think only in faults from the classroom to the stadium and back again. They would crucify their Alma Mater in opinion and on the scoreboard.
But Mister J. Hawk has left them holding the sack. Their ball and chain opinion dies in the echoes of their own rooming house. And the old bird proudly preens himself, nonchalantly chalkies the chalkiness of the Missouri Valley, casts a cocky eye at his crimes, and screams a fifty year old defiance to the Middle West.
"A Tailor Routes a Bandi" conves a headline. We always thought he could do it, but we never had the nerve to tell him so.
STUDY NATURE
These are the days when Nature is most communicative, when a rumble down country lanes hedged in by trees wailing their slinder spider webs on the breeze gives a weary soul inspiration enough to last him a week. When a tramp over the open country, along some soft murmuring stream, or through a leafy, carpeted wood forces the blood to circulate at racehorse speed, and as is invigorating as a tonic.
Kansas youths are taking advantage of this time. These are the biking days! Times when youth goes out and gains from Nature a wealth of knowledge never found in text-books. A few paw-paws still cling to the parental tree, red-haws are ripe, and wild grapes are luxious. The odor of toasting wienies over a crackling campfire speaks the languages of all ages, and beckons youth to the country.
And here comes our friend who thinks a category is an aquarium for cats.
THEY'RE STILL AT IT
The Norse gods had it in the apples of Erda; the Indiana had it in the fable of the Fountain of Youth which Ponce de Leon so zealously sought; and scientists, in spite of man's allotment of four score years and ten, are still seeking it.
That eternal idea of perpetual youth!
The monkey and sheep gland theories of rejuvenation have been practiced with partial success for a number of years, and some scientists today are regarding the glandular theory as established. However, this method has not yet had sufficient time to prove its effectiveness.
Recently there appeared an account of a Parisian doctor who practically reduced a woman's age ten years by a new kind of blood transfusion, which he calls "blood grafting." Just how long the temporary rejuvenation will last is problematic. What the patient knows is that she feels and looks ten years younger, has again taken up for trotting after palpitations of the heart had forbidden it, and has even abandoned her powder and rouge.
The instinct to cling to life cannot be conquered even by civilization. All future generations will pay tribute to the man who succeeds in prolonging life.
To hell with lawyers—painted on the steps of Green hall. Perhaps some one needs them there to plead his cause.
FILLING THAT GAP
Last year the department of rhetoric offered a course in contemporary literature and present day writers. The first year students especially appreciate such a course since it fits a gap in their schedule which none can oer. Last year the librarian reported a greatly increased demand for books by contemporary writers after these lectures. Isn't that sufficient reason for continuing them this year?
In fact, the list appears so attractive to unclassified men and even to some faculty members that many are planning to attend.
Britons think they are laboring hard enough under a Conservative government and are therefore unwilling to vote for a labor government.
A WORLD OF STUDENTS
Humanity looks not toward the past for the solving of her difficulties. She looks to Youth, who tries to solve her problems by tuning its ear to the wisdom and experience of the ages.
All over the world today students are bound in an International Confederation which ties the youth of nations together. A common purpose a common sympathy, develops a bond between them which is perhaps found in no other international group.
To the students of today, Age "passes on the torch" and watches the flame eagerly and confidently as it passes on and on down the rough shore of time.
Wanted: A name for the new library, so somebody could pull that one about book lovers.
The Safety Valve is a column door which separates faculty members, and any one Incident Management Kanan does not assume responsibility for anything that falls into the area. The area is attached to all communications and copy only will be printed. Address, The Safety Valve, Gate 1216.
All day Sunday and Monday of last week pigeons were flying in the vicinity of the stadium with their feet tightly bound. The weighted down by the colors they were so exhausted that some were captured, and the ribbons unloaded from their feet. Some were found too late. They had caught in the trees and died while struggling Brook-out the night.
THE SAFETY VALVE
This is no kick against the Aggies nor an attempt to throw mud at the rival school up the Kaw. In their zeal to put forth a beautiful spectacle, the Wildest pep squadrone conceived the idea of using pigeons. The sight was beautiful, and the "obs" and "ahs" in the stadium probably caused the thoughtless poppers to feel empty and impatient for their pigeons, but few pigeons did have to die a painful death? They should be congratulated that they helped to make the festivities a success.
To the Editor:
But thoughtless ideas of what pets is, have called for cruelty to dumb animals too many times. Still it is not our place to kick. The piggons

were martyrs in order that a few women might go into estates of delight. Everyone present cheered the originality of the Aggies. A pigeon has but one life to live; let him die in glory. This is a world where the fittest survive, so there can be no wrong in slowly killing the weak. Next year the rooters will be treated to a far more pleasant pasture. A couple of dogs will be burned at the stake, or the K. U. pep squadron might show some true originality by flaying a couple of cows alive.

A. M. O.
Sweet to me will be the memory f the three hours I spent in Spooner library the other evening.
But my attention could not all be given in one place or I would have missed some valuable information concerning which professors know best about the job they do not. The two lads who sat next to me have certainly been through the mill for they have taken courses that highest "proof" the world has produced.
My visit there had been prompted by the desire to know what one noted writer—Bryce, had to say in regard to liberty and state interference, but no sooner had I found my book and seated myself until I realized why Bryce had to say we have been given entertainment that I might receive. Opposite were two beautiful little lassies, and one was so charming to listen to. I learned the names of every "date" she has had this year, those with shiny curly hair, those with shiny black hair, and those with golden red hair. I know why she dated every one, and of the lot, her hair.
So the matrons of rooming rooms meet to consider the question of having University students sign yearly contracts for their rooms, in order that the order and decorum of their home life at the University might
And that Romeo who sat behind me must be a regular "Whiz Bang" at entertaining for he kept his bullet O, so sweetly—and she giggles. O, so sweetly.
I learned that one can be hilarious although in the midst of research work, for in the room that is provided for those advance students who love science, loud outbursts of laughter came forth, undoubtedly following the completion of some great research problem.
Descending to the main floor, I learned from the man at the desk that dates were scarce that evening and probably many young ladies would be compelled to go home alone. Nevertheless commotion in the hall indicated that many faithful escorts were arriving.
P. F. WALKER,
Now Mr. Editor, I'm not complaining or finding fault but I have noticed that things have changed from previous years and if a library is of any use at all it is for the above mentioned purposes. K. U. does not seem to build a library. Sooner library remained in its present condition, although the pool tables, leather chairs, and music are missing. R. D.
Campus Opinion
Sometimes tardiness is unavoidable, but with many persons, being late is a habit. When a reacting is called for 7:30, these individuals plan to leave their homes at 7:30 instead of planning to arrive at school or college. The students of this type could realize the hardship which their preoccupation works on others, perhaps they might set their watches up or in some other way attempt to break themselves of being habitually late.
One of the greatest pests on the campus is the individual who is always just a little bit late. He doesn't mean to cause any annoyance perseus, but he is just as much of an annoyance as though he迪拜稚朴ously.
There are enough things to take up students' time—such as things as committee meetings, rehearsals, and the like—if all of them are held on time; but when each group has to wait a precious quarter of an hour for committee work, not much can be accomplished and the whole group suffers.
To the Editor:
not be disturbed by moving!
But few students at the University expect to have any "home life" while living in a rooming house, and a number of the moves made by students are made in an effort to resemble more nearly resembling home life.
Home life would hardly be the term to apply to living in one room, with very explicit orders as to what is to be done in this one room.
And for those who depend upon the keeping of roomers for a livelihood, the students are doing their
best to provide them with a living for a small expenditure of work on the part of the rooming house matrons. The students must pay rent in some rooms, while students in some rooming houses must pay extra if they curl their hair, press their clothes, or heat soft water for shampooing their hair. The student who is ideal home life of the students by letting 'them move when they aren't satisfied, but it might lead in time to more satisfactory rooming house conditions. G.K.

"‘Human Wreckage' is the most important motion picture ever made," says the San Francisco Examiner. "It is fascinatingly dramatic." To which the San Francisco Call and Post adds: "Mrs. Reid has given the public something that is actually new, extremely powerful and unusually artistic. It is in a class by itself—a most original dramatic bit. It is an entertainment that should be remembered as long as the screen exists."
