The Daily Kanan aims to picture the future of Kanan; to go further than merely prying the facts by standing up for them and playing favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more serious problems to tiger heads; to have more students in the ability of the University.
FRIDAY,OCTOBER 5,1923
Some instructors are never satisfied. As soon as you get one assignment in they turn right around and give you another.
ABOVE ALL NATIONS
The League of Nations may die.
The court of international justice may fail to function. Future wars may harass the peoples of the world.
But as long as there exists on the campuses of our universities Cosmopolitan Clubs in which foreign students are familiarized with the ideals and aims of other countries, there will exist, also, a steady development toward elimination of strife among people.
Members of the Cosmopolitan Club on Mount Oread represent all that is best in the youth of their respective nations. They are their countries' unofficial ambassadors, and the cooperation and understanding of their mutual ideals and aspirations are prophetic of the understanding and sympathy which will exist one day between nations.
They work in a cause which is greater than the empire state or the island protectorate of any one member, greater even than Europe or America, for they say "Above all nations, for humanity."
NEW USE FOR REGISTRA TION CARD
Maybe the reason some conferences are called secret is because they haven't anything to reveal.
A novel use for the registration card has been discovered.
Not only will this useful little card serve as identification of students of the University to the merchants of Lawrence, but new upperclassmen have found it a convenient insurance against impromptu paddlings.
Time and tide wait for no man.
That's nothing; neither do 8:30 classes.
WHOM DESTINY CALLS
WITH DESTINY
The Right Honorable David Lloyd-George, ex-president of Great Britain, and the last of the war lords of the great conflict to step from his high seat, arrives in New York City today
His name is grouped with those others who rose during the war to guide the lives of men and nations—others like Wilen, Vilencios, and Brindi. During much of the last decade, he was a power to be reckoned with, a force to be considered in world matters.
It is not often that men like Lloyd-
George are born. And America does
well when she accords him the honors
due a great stateman and a fearless
fighter.
We herewith present a candidate for the meantest-manahb on the Hill. The guy who drops olives in his soup at the Commons to escape the vitilaint eye of the cashier. (He claims it works admirably when the soup is thick).
A LIBRARY NUISANCE "Got a knife?"
This is a question one is often asked by his library neighbor. And the occasions of the interruptions are not always welcome, especially if one is in the midst of a difficult problem which requires a little concentration.
But if one has the coveted knife, interruption does not cease merely with the question. The disturbing process of sharpening the pencil follows, greatly to the disturbance of all the other neighbors and to one's own discontent when some neurotic individual half way across the library frowningly looks over at him and suppresses a shudder as the scraping of lead continues.
The trouble is that there is only one penil sharperware in the whole library, and it is in a private office not accessible for student use. Let us demand some penil sharpeners for the library.
It is a poor rule that has no exceptions. The date rule must be a plutocrat; it is such an "exceptional" rule.
MERRY-GO-ROUND
There is usually music, sometimes raucous, sometimes fairly enjoyable, and a crowd to stand about and watch the riders. The spectators laugh and scold and admire, rather enjoying the tinsel of it all.
To the riders faces go by in a whirl, none especially distinguishable from the others. It is mostly a matter of succeeding impressions, the latest one erasing the one which just preceded it.
The music stops. The riders get off, a bit bewildered, a little dizzy, perhaps, but glad of the experience it's all like a merry-go-round, this matter of life.
If politics could last the entire year, what a change might result in certain physiologies!
ROOTS AND BRANCHES
Everywhere the newcomer may look upon the campus this year he is greeted by the words, "You are upon your honor at Kansas." Having found out that he is assumed to be a cheater, it is up to the new student to prove that he is not.
Cards, slogans and threats will never rid the classroom of the man who crisps. Few students will be reformed after reaching college. The time to begin is far back in the grade schools.
If the University would be free from the cheat, it must never enroll one. Kanas should lead a campaign to teach the school children of the state about the future standards they will be required to uphold.
Let the slogans and cards be distributed in the grades where they belong. Co-operation between the teachers of the state and the University will make this possible, and will eliminate the necessity of posters and threats.
"I sicken of men's company," cries the university woman. That is what a college education will do for you.
WEAR A BAND
If you would try to fascinate and vamp us,
If you would walk in style upon our Campus.
(The effect is often numbing) But to be right up and coming, Wear a band.
It need never be becoming
If it's only baby ribbon coily tied. Wear a band.
Wear a band.
Or a flaunting headress eighteen inches wide,
Wear a band.
Wear a band.
For if you'd be the rage, dear,
You'd follow fashion's page, dear,
And whatever be your age, dear.
True, there is a place for every freshman, but the fraternities get more than their share.
Campus Opinion
Freshmen and sophomores at the University of Kansas and the Agricultural College are out of place. In almost all cases they come directly from high schools where the enrolment is comparatively small to these large 'institutions', and the students who are especially interested in their subjects dislike to be bothered with these novices.
If these students were to attend junior colleges for two years, they would not be suddenly transplanted from high schools, where each step they made was made nearly all decisions are left to their own judgment. They would at these smaller institutions have more responsibilities than in high school, but they could learn that one year would not be wasted in bewilderment. The University of Chicago, while it admits underclassmen, encourages the attendance of only juniors, seniors, and graduate students such plan could be tried in Kansas.
Is not the percentage of students who fail in their first year's work large? And is not this most often due to the poor work of the first year? Is it that the student is no bewildered that he is not able to do himself justice?—K. S.
On Other Hills

"The Ancient and Independent Order of Fiery Domes" is a new app organization which has been organized on the Stillwater, Oka., campus. It invites the membership of any freshman student, man or woman, "who can flan a flaming top of woman and glowing red hair."
In an attempt to bring about a radical reduction in the number of illiterates in Mexico, the University of Mexico has sent out a call edited by the authors to ensure class to give a part of their time each day as voluntary teachers.
In answer to a questionnaire given to students in public speaking at the University of Denver, on why they were taking that course, one person candidly remarked, "To get better acquainted with the professor."
