From November 19, 2013, Kansas, under the act of March 8, 1977, week and on Sunday morning by students in Manhattan, Canaan, from the crises of Address all communications to THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, K. U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kanan aims to picture the future of education for children going on to further more print-oriented Kenan. To do this, he must be a University holder; to play no favors; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be helpful; to be gentle; to have serious problems to address; in his ability to students of the University. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 27.1923 In spite of his many years' after dance at the University, rumor has that the faculty will hold up Pi's degree again this year as punishment for late enrollment and "cutting" classes. THE CHEAT The student comes to the nill for an education. He is sincere; he is anxious to make the best of his opportunities. He is often idealistic fired with ambition. He enters Hill life. Work piles up; he looks about for relief. Notebooks, themes, quiz books saved meticulously for years, are obtainable for the use of the harrassed student, and are offered by his sophisticated friends. The temper is at hand. He falls. It is so easy to use someone else's notes to "get by." He probably does not realize for a number of years just the harm he has done to himself in taking the easiest way out of his difficulty. But however we may criticize him, the real blame for the situation should be shared by the older student who did the tempting. He has cheated the new student out of the valuable educational experience to be gained only through solving his own problems, and in "making the grade" without honorable help. The chest is one of the most despised members of society, and he is never more contemptible than when he helps to blight the high ideals of a new student and to rob him of worthy ambitions. Having been similarly afflicted at times, we bow in extreme deference to this man Job. Any man who can pass through a seige of boils without giving 'way to righteous anger must be the very personification of patience—but we'll bet that even job never had to endure the whining of a saxophane in his fraternity tent. LAW AND THE CRISIS Whatever the conditions which have occasioned the present situation in Oklahoma, the question uppermost at present is a legal one, rather than a moral one. The constitution of the state expressly stipulates that the governor alone has the power to call a special session of the legislature. That constitution was drafted and accepted by the people of the state of Oklahoma. If the document is no longer applicable, or if situations have arise which can not be met under the present constitution, it is the duty of the people to amend it. Leaving aside the moral issues of the question, which are another phase of the situation entirely, it must be admitted that the legislators showed themselves real thinkers in abandoning their attempt to convene yesterday in defiance of the governor's edict. Law is law as long as it remains on the statute books; the legislators of Oklahoma realized it, and it is to their credit that law won over all else in yesterday's crisis. Certain professors evidently believe that the manufacture of the milk of human kindness consists in "canning." THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN AND NOW THE MEN The world has heard a good deal of the fads and foibles of the women of the movie world. Hollywood from all accounts would appear to teem with feminine creatures of the sleek and clawed variety, in whom jealousy and envy riot and made enemies and occasioned many a cynical smile from the other sex. Of course, it occasions no particular excitement when women break forth as principals in a new case. But this story is different. Now, however, comes the report that two of the great director-generals of the Lasky-Players are casting heavy heavies at each other. One has superseded the other so the report goes in the favor of the president of the film company. And so there are hard feelings and no little jealousy. is all quite new—and interesting. William S. Hart has put Shaffner & Marx in the movie advertisements. THE RETICENT STUDENT THE RETIENT STUDENT Reticence is at once a virtue and a vice. To be a little backward about voicing an opinion is sometimes commendable. Opinions are arbitrary things at best, and to add one's wall to a chorus of I-think-so's is merely wasting time and breath. Undue modesty robs the student of a social life which is indispensable to a true education. It relegates him to listeners' row in the classroom. He gives him a morosely subjective in stead of a happily objective aspect of University life. The reticent student lives unto himself. He feels infinitesimally unimportant in this young city of 3500 population. The hurrying, indifferent crowds of upperclassmen; the bruise, business-like manner of the professors; the lonesome evenings; all tend to have an undesirable effect on the secretive student. The solution of the problem involves upon the student himself, since the Hill is, generally, too busy with its own interests to draw him out of his shell.

U. in familiarizing himself with the University and University practices than the Students' Handbook, which is given each student when he enrols. Surely nothing of importance concerning the University has been overlooked in the compilation of this handy little book. But wouldn't it be an excellent idea if the next issue contained a plat of the city of Lawrence, showing the location of the churches and various other public buildings of the city? The fellow next door who plays a saxophone is an abominable peat. And the person who kicks when we play ours is a crab. Plain Tales From The Hill A student sauntered from a first floor class-room in East Ad the other morning. A friend caught up with him and asked him what he was doing in that particular class-room. He promptly answered that he was making an appointment when asked what his incomplete was, he replied "sleep." A lot of new students are mistaking the "swagger sticks" that the senior journalists are "wearing" to be the insignia of middle-laws. They are one-half the size of the conventional senior law cane. A carpenter of Lawrence who has wood-working machinery reports that he is swamped in turning out a peculiar piece of wood nicely whitted at one end. He has orders from one young hill fellow for three dozen, another for five dozen, and numerous others. The skill comes in time become famous as the manufacturer of the "Louisville Slugger Bat" did. A freshman became suddenly homesick and decided that the only remedy was a long distance call. No one would answer, and the call went through, but mother wasn't home; dad was. Dad did all the talking. A lecture on finance came over the wire and the frosh was notified that no more help would come from home this month. The worst part of the deal was that the poor frosh couldn't reverse charges and they amounted to $9.57. A few nights ago, two, not both boys either, were seated under the Learn to Dance For K. U.
