U. 25 and 64 The Daily Kamau aims to picture the life of a man who is called *Kamau* in go further than merely print the news by standing for the faucets, washing his hands, cleaning his socks; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be helpful; to serve others; to move more serious problems to junior heads; in all to serve to the best of his ability the needs of his fellow Kamau. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1923 We venture to state that two or three congressmen we know could accomplish this dawn-to-dusk flight. They are always up in the air about something. SUBSCRIBE For the first time since the inception of the idea of an official University organ, the University Daily Kansan is a six-day newspaper. As such, it ranks with the other great college dallies—the Cornell Sun, the California, the Nebraska, and others. And as such it deserves the support of every student on the campus. Uppercaseham runate its worth, its indispensability in the student curriculum. Freshmen will become cognizant of these facts shortly. Sign on the dotted line. Get your Sunday morning Kanan, containing the latest news of the campus, of the college sport world, the quality features, and the wire news gathered from every corner of the earth. Keep up with the progress of events. Subscribe. Some of the English "coal kings" seem to be losing their "crowns." THE WHEREFORE OF WHICH THE WHEREFORE OF WHICH For the advanced student it is a comparatively easy task to choose and for the freshman today and tomorrow will be a sore trial in the bustle and bustle of choosing classes. Most high school graduates, fresh from Valley Falls and Kansas City, have only a hazy idea of what they want to "take." College is college, and they are sure only that they are citizens of this busy city on the "Hill," that they want an education and a degree. To be sure, there is the small minority which has definitely decided to "major" in engineering, law, pharmacy, or perhaps medicine; but that is the small minority. To start the freshman, eager and ambitious, then, off on the right foot; to thus save him the discouragement consequent upon his enrolling in courses which he does not need; that constitutes the problem of the army of advisers in Robinson Gymnasium. To obtain a bachelor of arts degree the freshman needs only complete one hundred and twenty hours work at the University of Kansas. To waste a single minute of his four short years on the Hill in the pursuit of a "snap" course amounts to a grave injustice to himself and a more serious injustice to the citizen of the state of Kansas—the taxpayer. It behoves you, then, freshman, to weigh values, wisely and thoughtfully, that your sojourn at this University may be a profitable one. Heed the advice of the professor to whom you have been assigned as consulteer. He is versed in the ways of the new students; he knows their faults, aspirations, and weaknesses; and he will offer valuable suggestions as to profitable courses. Judging by reports from Tekio ship-yards, it appears that the armamation operation at the Washington conference wasn't a success. READ THE EDITORIALS What do the editorials mean to you, Mr. Average Student? Space-fillers? The charge has been made that the newspaper editorial has its lost power, that it is read only by the frowly good gentleman in the fifty-cent spectacles who is afraid he will be "gyped" out of his two cents if he doesn't gormandize on the whole edition. The would-be cynical ones point to the features on the editorial page with a sneer, asserting that the honest expression of opinion needs "teacers" to attract attention. Only in one class of newspapers has the editorial lost its power—the "yellow" sheet. And the reason therein is obvious. The editorials in the University Daily Kansan are read, and are read by those students and members of the faculty who take an acute interest in current campus, and off-campus, problems. Kansan editorials seek to be unbiased, non-partisan, fair. And Kansan editorials, Mr. Average Student, are written for the student body of K. U. Get the habit. Read this page. This seems to be the motto of several Lawrence boarding clubs: "Do not feed the animals." FRATERNITY ATTICS The dust of years has covered them; their pages bear the scribbling of the abstinent pen of the student gone one, two, or five years from the life of K. U. They are the notebooks and quiz books, notably the former, which the graduating student has benignly beheaded to the next year's student. They are the stores found in the fraternity and sorority attics. No library of classes could be so valuable. For the new student, obsessed with the charm of college life, but irked by the necessary work, finds this attic a haven of delight, a veritable treasure trove, where he seeks, and too often finds, the notebook of the former student, which admirally fits his purpose. He finds and welds another link in his chain of "getting by." And so he begins his college life, abbetted in his desire to profit by the work of others. And when he has finished, his notebook in turn will go up in the fraternity store house. For he believes in giving help where he has received it, and the suggestion Pleating Hemstitching Buttons Eat at the new 933 $ \frac{1}{2} $ Mass.
