The Daily Kamaan aims to picture the students of the University in the Kamaan; to go further than merely printing the news by plaining it out; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be more serious problems to water hands; in more serious problems to ability the students of the University.
It is generally conceded by prominent physicians that hand shaking is not only a carrier of disease germ, but is extremely harmful to the nervous system. Then it follows that after the elections next week the student body will be one diseased lot and a group of nervous breakdowns.
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4,1923
News comes of the drowning on another student in the Kaw yesterday. Such events are growing to be an almost annual occurrence in Lawrence, and hillspeople and townapeople alike shake their heads over the situation.
THE MOVING FINGER
Yesterday's tragedy may be the result of any of several possible causes, and we may talk at length upon the prevention of similar accidents, without reaching an agreement.
Of one thing we are sure. The man who died was only one student out of the four thousand on the Hill, and out of a community of that size, it is not possible that everyone could have known him.
But whether he was a close friend, passing acquaintance or stranger, he was a fellow-student of every person hero, and all the Hill mourns.
Journalists are carrying sticks By their swaggers ye shall know them.
ARROWS AND IDES OF OCTOBER
Even as a nation is held intact largely by its aims, aspirations, and experiences, so this University finds a common ground for homogeneity in its time-honored traditions. One of the latter is the tradition of the shirt-tail parade.
For the freshman, Saturday night's event will be a mile-stone in his University career, a memory generously apied with apple cider and bilarity. "The folks" and the girl he left in Smith Center when he packed his trunk to come K. U. will know all about it Monday. First-year students like to write letters.
But for the upperclassman and the townpeople and the faculty, the annual night-shirt parade holds something more. To them it means an expression of loyalty. It means a common bond, a momentary fusing of interests, a holiday wherein tasks are put aside and toasts are drunk to the longevity of Kansas first and greatest educational institution.
Kansas traditions live. Arrow and Ide shirt-tails are about to make their annual appearance.
The early student has an advantage over the traditional early bird when he gets a seat in some University classes.
WHICH SIDE OF THE FENCE It makes a good deal of difference whether a person is on the outside looking in, or whether he is on the inside looking out. Senator La Pollett will probably testify to that.
The Senator in America was a hearty sympathizer with the Russian government; his enthusiasm carried him to the point of making the trip to Russia to see conditions at first hand.
He is seeing them, and experiencing them, and the report is that his enthusiasm is suffering thereby. Deplorable living quarters, lack of the ordinary conveniences of life, are not conducive to a great deal of sympathy with the government of his hosts. It all depends upon which side the fence one happens to be.
To distinguish between a bachelor maid and an old maid, remember that an old maid retains her maiden name because she has had no opportunity to change it, and a bachelor maid keeps hars from choice.
THE ADHERENTS OF BLACKSTONE
Next Monday when the fresh pull their pancake hats over their eyes and endeavor to sneak unnoticed by the law steps, they will be greeted by howls of derision and the antics of a cage of monkeys. There will be much wilt and cracking of canes upon the portals of Green hall.
Freshmen will at once decide that it costs something to enter K U. after all. Some will resist to their peril, the majority will smile, take it in the spirit of fun, charge it up to tradition, and pass on.
Discouragement should not be fostered on the part of the freshman, because a little abuse is cast his way. Remember, they ridicule look just as funny to you as you look to them, so the feeling is mutual. Laugh it off and forget it. There is no place upon the campus for a grudge.
"Europe Fliggety," says a headline. We would be, toc, if we had as many "brooks" on our back as she has.
EARTHQUAKE OR COW?
EARTHQUAKE OR COW?
It was in New Zealand thirty years ago that Zarh T. Pritchard worked to paint his under-the-saip pictures. He lived in a tiny house, and at night when it began to shake, he was unable to determine whether it was caused by one of the frequent earthquakes or by some friendly cows in rubbing their backs against his little hut.
He didn't let it worry him. He went on with his work. Some of the modernists today would have set to work to secure legislation to suppress the neighbor's cows. Others would have petitioned the government for a seismograph to record future earthmakes.
Pritchard continued to work, make
friends, painting pictures, until
he has won for himself world-wide
recoignment.
He had an idea, that of painting pictures, and he refused to let cows or earthquake deflect him from his purpose.
Girls spend half their time talking of the other girls, and the rest of it wondering what the other girls are saying of them.
"What is size?" is the first question asked of any girl under discussion. It is second in importance only to that question, "What is he?" The student discussed is judged, classified and card-cataloged in the mind of the questioner as soon as this is answered.
THE STUDENT OR THE FRAT?
Before his college days, when he belonged to no fraternity, he may have had a personality of his own, and he may still be striving to express it, but too often it is not allowed to enter into the question of his popularity on the campus when such an easy method of decision as to his merits is at hand. He must be judged entirely by the standards of the organization to which he belongs. True, each fraternity and sorority does have a "type" of its own, but why doom every member to be exactly alike—and in choosing friends are there not many things more important to know than whether or not they are "Greek" and just which organization they honor with their membership?

MAKING THE GRADE
What does a "grade" mean?
Twice during the school year the Hill is thrown into a furor of study-activity and the drug stores are be sieged by mobs seeking headache tablets. Students suffer with severe attacks of library-itil. It's quiz week, and everyone is trying to "make a grade."
VICTORIA KRUMSICK, President
A grade is not worth as much as a German mark in Shelbay, Montana, if it is not backed up by a representative amount of knowledge gained from taking a course. It is a more certificate, showing how much actual stock one has in this institution of brains, information, and learning.
To believe that a certain number of A's and C's and C's (and D's) constitutes a college education is to put oneself into a decidedly stagnant state of mind. One learns one's A-B-C's in kindergarten.

DUOFOLD STANDARDS IN LOWER PRICED PENS

Masters of Pendom make all Parkers
As well as the famous Duofold
The same classic slapiness — The same writing balance
New Parker D. Q.—Students' Special; §3
WHEN you buy a Parker Pen of any model, at any price, you are getting standard than and before the Parker Pen which was created when it exists today only in the Parker make.
Parker's lower priced black pens are like Parker Duofolio in everything save the size and point. Yet even their points are tipped with a smoothness to the finish, which to the smoothness of a costly jeweled bearing.
Only the Parker craft-guild is trained to make duo-
knee shoes, this same skill applies all other
Parker Pants too.
If you want the Oversize Pen with lure-lined bur-
stick, use the point—point—point—point—point—point of Parker
