They say that "motion is two-thirds of "promotion." Better keep on moving.
EDUCATED BARBARISM
Yesterday chemical was applied to the back of one of the campus dogs by a group of students, on the statement of many persons who witnessed the act, for the purpose of experimentation.
The Kanan has been asked by several students to express an opinion on this.
.
If words could say—and providing the incident took place—the Kansan would willingly devote an entire column of editorial comment to what every sane and normal person thinks of such an act.
The animal suffered indescribably. The chemical burned and seared its flesh. And no bystander was merciful enough to put it out of its misery
But words cannot say.
It's absolutely certain that only fools are positive.
"SOME OF US CALL IT AUTUMN ..."
Dead leaves are falling. The suriures late, a golden burst through a soft curtain of purplish blue, hung in the east by Indian Summer's artistry
We see our breath outdoors in the evening and feel a crisp coolness in the air.
But if one would enjoy to the full
the gorgeous coloring of autumn
which is just creeping upon us, let
him climb to the little cupa on the
top of Fraser and gaze out over the
valley.
To the south lies the hazy Wakura whose brilliant purple and reds and greens are softened now to lavender and rose and small.
The ominous Kaw turns sharply to the north, a slate grey snake in the peace of the north valley. But for miles and miles to the east one sees nothing but tree tops in every imaginable shade of green, with here and there red roofs interspersed.
Near by red vines twine around the dark-trunks of still uncolored trees. The gum tree, near Oread High, is slily changing its dress with steely anticipation of glorious galaxy of color with which it is going to surprise the world in its new fall costume.
Fall is here, generously and lavishly painting the outdoors for our approval. Take time to see and admire
We note that fashion now decreases shingled roofs to top the modern Eyes.
GROWN UP - - - - ALMOST
Are University students "grown up?" Well -- plus, butt, —
"Gotta have a yellow slicker. All the doves."
In't there a vague resemblance to the child who "dresses up" in Dad's old cost and swaggers around in a game of make-believe
'n't there something that reminds you of the little boy who wants a real man's tie, not a girlish silk heart"—none of us welcomes them." And doesn't the sophisticated look on
ng student who waits after class to explain that she wouldn't have been so late if she hadn't been "unavoidably detained," and that she will surely have that paper ready next time, make you think of a pig-tailed fourth grader using all her ingenuity to avoid being kept in?
Yes, University students are grown
Love games are not always played on tennis courts.
ap --- almost.
WHOSB FAULT IS IT?
If students are cheating themselves out of what college has to offer them, as one Emporia professor believes, whose fault is it?
Under our present system at the University, a student who comes here seeking only social life or the right to say he has been away to college, is usually disposed of after the first semester.
For the majority of students, "coming away to college" means coming away from home for the first time and entering an entirely different kind of a life from that to which they have been accustomed. Most of them are still in their teens and feel keenly the lack of parental advice and guidance, though at the same time taking great pleasure in their own independence and ability to stand alone.
They are all dumped promiscuously into boarding houses, all forced to take practically the same courses for their first two years, many of which they have no interest in.
The students are striving to get the most out of college; professors are striving to give them the most. Those facts are uncontrovertible.
It would be well for the Emporia professor to realize some of the difficulties against which the average student compa during his four years in college.
You can't get around it. You're either influenced by fashion or fashioned by influence.
PICTURES FOR DUBS
A theater which runs only those pictures which are "too deep for the dumbbells" is suggested by William Allen White, and another for the duks, themselves.
An excellent suggestion. Think of the increase in the business of the gum manufacturer with the advent of such a picture house for dubs. And the corner pop-corn man! For the psychic make-up of the individual who would go voluntarily to sit through seven reels of pifle would demand food in the way of something material, to compensate for the lack of mental nourishment.
And think of the convenience of it. Would-be highbrowers reverve so typemight take time off to revel in their own element without fear of curse. They could at will be highbrow or globetail.
On the whole, Mr. White's suggestion is not half bad. The best thing is that which does the greatest good for the greatest number. Conceding that the "greatest number" includes the apostes of Mr. Wrigley and the pop-corn man and the patrons of these individuals, then Mr. White's suggestion deserves support.
The one quiz for which Hill pedagogues expect no "cramming" is the physical examination. Here, once, one's requirement is more than a mere digest of facts.
If as much public sentiment could be aroused against the "book hog" as the "road hog" knows, it would soon be possible to check books out of the library over night without the conscious student or the library losing the book.
As the good autoist despises the man who takes more than his share of the road to the imminent danger of all other motorists, so the scholar despises him who gets a corner on all the books and fails to return them until too late for others to use them. He is a menace to good scholarship as the other is a menace to good citizenship
A skimmer was thrown into an uprear the other day by a false alarm of fire. Evidently, the deck contained a joker.
THE SAFETY VALVE
The Safety Valve is a column-structured valve that controls the flow of water and any one treated water does not assume responsibility for anything human prints or substances in the environment as the evidence of poor condition.

Being "smart" is not the reason for breaking the date rule. If the rule were a reasonable one, that the students had helped formulate, breaking it would be "breaking training". But when the rule is one which it is practically impossible to obey and be normal, the matter is different.
Evidently the "Right of Revolution'
To the Editor:
The date rule at the University i so constructed, it is a foregone conclusion that any girl who keeps it strictly either has an ingrowing conscience, or slicks her hair straight back from her forehead and thinks she's not good enough. But the rule because she has no opportunity to break it.
Under the present interpretation, it is correct for a woman student to be anywhere she wishes, at any time of the day or night, provided she leaves word where she is, and is not seen with men, with men during the week is sinful.
It is considered perfectly correct, on a week night, to go to the library with another girl, leave in time for the second show, stop for refreshments, and then go to the movies with a man, and arrive home before 10, in taboo. It is all right to be escorted home from the library by a man, and take half an hour walking the three blocks, promenade, not included in a stop for refreshments.
Girls do not break the date rule to be "smart." The "smart" person can usually manage to keep the letter of name or address in the spirit. It is the honorable student who finds it impossible to comply with foolish laws, and does not care to stoon to subterfuge, who breaks the law and lives reasonably, not to be "smart."
Plain Tales From The Hill
"The originator of the Mushinian theory," said a youth in public speaking class, "was Methuselah, who lived at 900 B. C."
Excerpt from the poetic works of Gentrue Stein, whose free-verse has made her much talked of in literary circles lately:
Raspberries
Maybe also
also running
Luscious and daring
Peanuts exploring
rips and rips
Ripe, ripe, notes
That's that.
A group of girls were discussing what degrees they aspired to take in the future. Some wanted an M. A., some an M. D., and others, a Ph. D. One of the girls who had not yet stated her ambitions spoke up; thusly, "I think I'd rather have a P. A. D. than any Ph. D."
The latest version of the meaning of R. S. V. P.-Rush in, Shake hands, Vanish Pleasantly.
We would like to know what hair-
tonic a certain young man on the
Hill, whose crowning glory was
somewhat of a minus quantity last
year, used to produce the luxuriant
waves which adorn his head this fall.
A sorority girl went into a furier's show downtown the other day and told the inquiring clerk that she wanted a murf. "What *what*?" asked the murf. "Who, to keep my hands warm, of course," the girl replied in disgust.
Rhetoric Prof.—There can be no sentence without a verb. Is that clear?"
In Russia the rubles it takes to buy one cigarette, if placed end to end, would reach one mile.
The kind of shoe that would satisfy all University women has not yet been invented. It would be one that is large inside and small outside.
