The Daily Kenan aims to picture the undergraduate students rather than merely giving the news by standing for the favorite positions; to be client; to be cheerful; to be curious about more serious problems to sister hands; in addition, to ability the students of the University. SUNDAY MORNING, OCT. 28, 1923 The Vermont legislator who took an add machine from the state probably needs it to add up his boot DAD Dad, old boy, we welcome you to our campus. We want you to feel that this University is your University, and that you are the vital factor in its development. We want you to be intimate with this little world of ours; our interests are to be your interests, and our friends your friends. We want you to know that by your coming, you have given us the most pleasurable memories of the year. A single day is all too short; but it is a thing to be anticipated and looked back upon with pleasure. Last night after the game, when we were all at dinner together, we silently proposed a toast to the author of our being, the furnisher of our name, protector of our infancy, counselor of our youth, the adviser of our maturity—he who best understands our frailties, who is proudest of our successes and most sorrowful in our reverence—a friend without self interest, and a guide whose leading is always toward the right—our dad. REMEMBER? The world is full of "promising young men," but many of them fail to keep their promises. Remember? Back in your freshman year, after the excitement of enrolling, and the thrill of first going to classes, and meeting new people had subsided, you were loneless. You had met many people, but you felt that you were missing one of the biggest things in college life, real friendships. You had no one who understood how you felt about things. You were away from home, and had no one to help you solve your problems and worries. He really wanted to be friends with you. He understood how you felt about things, and could help you out with some of your problems, and encourage you about others. Then one of the upperclassmen, who had been through it all, made an especial effort to get acquainted with you. It wasn't one of the same casual acquaintanceships like those you had made already. Remember how it helped? But what sort of a fellow was this friend who meant so much to you? He wasn't necessarily one of the big politicians, nor an idolized athlete, nor a Phi Beta Kappa aspirant, but just the ordinary sort of fellow that you were. You have been "nice" to the new students, of course, in a superficial sort of way, and you have enjoyed them when you met them. That upperclassman probably enjoyed his friendship with you, and in many ways it probably meant as much to him as it did to you. Think about it, and then act. "Me und Gott" seem to have tired of chopping wood at Doorn. The Four Horseson of the Apocynae are: Paul Revere, Jesse James, Buffalo Bill and Barney Google. THE SEPARATIST MOVEMENT To the student of political science the separatist movement in Germany would seem to hold three possible consequences: Germany may resolve herself into a group of states with a federal system similar to that of this country. She may be divided into North and South Germany, with Bavaria holding control in the latter and Prussia in the former. And, thirdly, a state of anarchy may rapidly be precipitated. For the most part the allied powers in Europe desire that Germany suffer disintegration and reformation in order that she may become weaker as a nation and therefore less formidable in a militaristic way. States' rights questions and other problems common to the establishment of a federation of states would, however, jeopardize the peace of Europe for a time. As for France, she wants two things; indemnity and safety. It is probably that Paris would sacrifice a portion of its indemnity for the sake of securing safety, if Germany showed signs of breaking up into a number of small states. It is pointed out that Hungary might enter the German federation of states if the separatist movement resolves itself into that. The movement in Bavaria, which talks on monarchical tendencies, may be interpreted to mean a withdrawal from Prussia in the north and the establishment of a single sovereign state, independent of all outside influence. Prussia, naturally, would in this case remain in control in the north. It has been pointed out that Bavaria might withdraw and form a political union with Hungary. It would seem, however, that such a union would be only temporary in character- Bavarians are inherently Teutonic and the borders of German state tend to coincide for the most part with those automatically decreed by nationality. The third possibility in consequence of the separatist movement is full of grave possibilities. Press reports indicate that the forthcoming conference on the reparations question was encouraged by France because she saw her chance of obtaining indemnity from a chaotic German state lessening. Although openly opening the movement in the Rhineland, France is dubious as to further action; untoward action may only precipitate the earlier a state of anarchy. Why all this reform agitation against co-eds going car riding? The automobile is just the old parlor sofa on wheels. BEING A PRODIGY At seventeen, the boy that is known as the "Hardy prodigy" is now ready to have a doctor's degree conferred upon him at Columbia university. Last year he took his master's. Many times he has read papers on mathematical problems that have startled the world. His mother has devoted her life to making him what he is—a prodigy. But even though he is known the world over as the "child wonder" and the "mathematical wizard," still he holds an unenviable position. Many a boy who doesn't know all the multiplication tables, but who knows how to enjoy life will in the end be happier than young Hardy, the prodigy. While other boys of his age were catching whoppers, he was lost to the world in the intricacies of calculus. Though he may be able to hold his own with world-famed mathematicians in discussing the fourth dimension, he can't talk with a seven-year-old in terms of "dubs" and "vents." It is probable that he has never been a real boy. He has likely never felt the soft mud squashing between his toes or heard the fellows yell from the elew swimmin' hole, "come on in, the water's fine!" The foreign language department offers a free ticket to convocation for the best translation of this sentence: "Oui; nous n'avons pas des bananas aujourd'hui." From little frosh big seniors grow. A girl on the Hill spent all one afternoon in the library looking for a certain statute, but to no avail. The next day she told her professor that he hadn't even thrown everything in the library, even the "Congregational" records. Plain Tales From The Hill Corbin Hall has its own Pencko Alley. A freshman has established a beauty parlor on third floor whose reputation has reached beyond the confines of the Dorm. The proprietor of this establishment bobs hair for the sum of a quarter and gives it to each visitor. As a result, down-town parliers are getting precious little trade from the 107 girls who stay at the Hall. They do say that there's a Chi Omega who put on a friton one day last week and lost it the very next week. There were zero kills and the pin was recovered. the incense-burner, which was lit during the evening. "A number of girls on this Hill" muses a law, "would make good walking advertisements for Shewbulls." (He gets 12%.) "We paint the Earth." An equal to the person who would throw a monkey-wrench into a running machine has been found in Kyle Kapua. Kappa Lunga party not long one of the fratres cut up some rubber into tiny bits and put it in Frank Rising asked a freshman to subscribe to the Jahwawher the other day and the freshman said, "Suburbs to the first Hill and subscribed to the first day I was on this Hill and have been getting it every evening since." All that was left for Frank to say was that he had certainly had been delivering it so regularly. One of the sororites sent a freshman downtown the other day after electric灯 bulbs—but they just said "hulls," thinking she'd know from the lack of light they had been given to their mother and another, reshei, she didn't, but came home with a package of narcissus. Do you know that Kansas swamped the much-talked of Notre Dame to the tune of 24 to 5 in 1914? Y. M. C. A. means "You Must Come Across."
