The Daily Kannan wants to picture the ideal man, who goes on to become a Kannan; to go further than merely promising the news by standing for the ideals he wants him to be; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to have more serious problems to water head; in order to possess the ability of the students of the University.
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25.1923
Establishment of a commonality of purpose, ideals, and activities with the people of Kansas will be a marked step toward a Greater State and its Greater University.
RECIPROCAL SERVICE
K. U. wants to be like the "folks at home." And is. What K. U. needs is a bond to make it and the people of the state realize that they are one as regards pride in accomplishment and oneness of purposeful endeavor.
One method of establishing this bond of relation is through reciprocal service to the state and to the University. K. U. owes it to Kansas to inform it on the breadth and scope of Hill activities. The people of Kansas owe it to the University to state what it expects of this institution and the students in it.
In reality, K. U. needs the people of Kansas more than they need K. U. It needs their encouragement and their advice—the aggregate wisdom of Kansas makes insignificant the wisdom of the Hill. And therefore the University must keep in touch with its state.
There is little that parents will no do for their children. Their hope and their ambitions, their very happiness, is centered and personified in their sons and daughters. How necessary it is, then, that K. U, realize what the people of Kansas expect of it.
Co-operation is the keystone of the arch of reciprocal service. Co-operation can be brought about by a mutual understanding. And mutual understanding can be had only through intimate contact.
Kansas Dads will be on the campu Saturday. Welcome them to K. U.

DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE
Simultaneously with the announcement that $20,000 had been raised at the Hague to next a Holland-Java air trip next spring comes another of equal import to air fans, in the shape of a "flying fllower."
The diminutive machine is only twenty feet from wing tip to wing tip and can go farther on a gallon of gas than a real "earth diver." But, most important of all, it is reported that Henry Ford, whose factories turn out thousands of low-priced automobiles per day, has been interested in the project of manufacturing a low-priced airplane
It is dabbling in ancient history to say that present-day flying appeared fifty years ago to be as fantastic and an impossible as Verne's account of explorations twenty thousand league under the sea. Current history of aviation records the fact that fifteen years ago air engineers were dubious about the ability of an air machine
to withstand the rigors of flight a sufficient length of time to make it commercially possible of manufacture, therefore, accepted only a few bombs.
Wings were frail. The buffeting by unusually strong winds tended to weaken the whole structure of the machine and to jeopardize the life of the aviator. Costs of manufacturing made the sale price virtually prohibitive.
That was fifteen years ago. Today the manufacture of an air machine, incomparably safer and remarkably cheap, is being considered by the leading automobile manufacturer of the country. It is no dream of Jule Verne to say that the air within the next ten years will probably be filled with the drone of hundreds of machines—of both the commercial and pleasure variety.
Fifteen years ago it was virtually impossible of realization. Which leads one to incoincently ask the age old question: In anything impossible?
Lloyd George overse the United States owes help to Europe. Evidently an answer to the doughboy's exclamation on Armistice Day, 1918 "Now that we've paid our 'debt to France,' who else do we owe?"
AMRASSADOR'S LEGS
With the announcement of Ambassador Harvey's return from England and his replacement by another diplomat in the government"s foreign service, one is reminded of the press reports from London at the time Mr. Harvey attended the royal wedding of Princess Mary last year—and of the fact that the appointment of a successor should be carefully considered.
We don't want a representative there whose appearance in knee breeches will draw a barrage from the press to the effect that the "American was another striking figure."
If one may judge from the reports of those who grazed on the loco motor appendages of the garroulou George when not incensed in the digitifying broadleath, their contour and curves, or lack of curves, do present a striking firure.
In choosing our representative at the Court of St. James, our government should be very careful about legs. A skinny, bony, emacled leg is unfitting to represent this great nation at court gatherings at Westminster where the best ministerial legs in the world are congregated.
Think of the fat German legs, the fulsome curves of the Swedish delegates, the imposing abundance of the Dutchman's well-fitted sock.
Uscle Sam should look after this matter of ambassador's job. Johnny Bull is going to talk the skirt-six Prince of Wales into getting married pretty soon, and the ceremony will make the marriage of the Duke of York look like a country charivari n comparison.
Night police in Brussels are losing sleep on account of the Separatists.
FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL
"The greatest good for the greatest number" was the spirit back of the K. U. date rule when it was first formulated and the spirit which still persists among members of the student council and the University as a whole.
It is a student rule, last voted on by all University women in the spring of 1920 when the revised W. S. G. A. constitution was adopted.
The K. U. date rule is a protection to the women themselves, in that it safeguards their health and enables a popular girl to do her necessary amount of studying.
It is a protection to the finances and scholarship of the men of the University.
Women interested in the welfare of the Greater University keep the spirit if not the letter of the K. U. date rule.
Naturally, a rule formulated for the benefit of several hundred women could apply only generally in exceptional cases. The number of its violators is legion. But probably few women who have broken it would say that it should be stricter from the statutes.
THE SAFETY VALVE

instituted for the use of the students,
who are required to be trained in University problems. The valve has been installed for anything heinous poisoned. Full municipalities as the evidence of good safety, and the Safety Valve, Gar-Unit Address, The Safety Valve, Gar-Unit Address.
In a recent issue of the Kansan was an editorial labeled, "Why We They, Dumb?" I rise to ask, who was dumb?
Who Was Dumb?
.
The inference seemed to point toward a lack of enthusiasm on the part of the returning rooters who felt there was something else. Maybe, though, it referred more to the lack of effort on the part of the cheerleaders or, perhaps, the lethargy was with the "home-folks" who were at the train to meet the returning roots.
If the author of that editorial had been in the Nebraska stadium last Saturday he would have tad little right to ask. "Were they why done? That erased three hundred cents certainly did its share of fame in Lincoln.
Many Cornbushers remarked that next to the outcome of the game they marveled most at the seemingly unlimited supply of spirit and fight on the continent at the fray. That crowd was on its feet and yelling itself hoarse all the time. It didn't miss a chance to put out proper encouragement to the team. Those rooters went up there to see a battle and then to their kit, and they did it. If there is anything to the idea that a cheering and thoroughly loyal crowd can help a team to buck up and fight in the right places, it was, without a doubt, brought out in good form at Linas.
There is a falling action after the climax of any performance. Hardly a person on that special had his normal voice when he returned to Lawrence. Everyone had tasted the glory of doing a big job in the best manor possible. They wanted to let others in on the joy of it.
If the welcomes had the urge to cheer why didn't they bring boots spontaneously and demonstratively? The excursionists needed no incentive whenever the time came. They were a crowd of rooters and how they did root! Perhams the band started the parade up town to soon—perhaps the morning air was too crisp; perhams the result of the game, left gong too loud two wee of the victorious team—perhams a lot of things.
In answering "Why Were They Dumb," let us ask "Who Was Dumb?"
Hoarsely yours, L. H.

Herbert S. Hadley, chancellor of Washington University, said in his address of Oct. 18 before several hundred members of the legal profession in St. Louis, "The statutory requirement in Missouri for admission to law school is a difficult patient." The address was one part in connection with the dedication of a new building for a law school at Washington University.
A grandstand is being built by the students of the Kansas State Teachers' College at Hays. It will have a seating capacity of 1500, and when completed will be painted by the members of the Women's Athletic Association for women. Do not do the painting under the direction of Miss Martha Hill, need of the department of physical education for women.
Twenty-five girls of the Texas University recently organized a rite club. Dues for membership in the club will be $2.50, which will cover registration and instruction. This club is for all girls who are interested in rite practice, and who wish to count points for W. A. A. They will be instructed how to make a rite wig, and pry by George H. Cantrell, a junior at the University.

OBERCOATS
An overcoat might look well and have good material in it; but you cannot be sure that it will retain its good looks month after month and season after season unless it bears a reliable label.
A piece of metal the size and shape of a silver dollar, might be of equal value; but you wouldn't accept it unless it bears the U. S. government stamp.
OBERCOATS bear the label that insures Quality, Service, and Satisfaction. They are correctly cut and they cost no more than ordinary coats.
