TUESDAY, MAY 29, 1923 It's not so much that we quibble about doing a semester's work in one day, but what hurts is working a semester in that day. FAREWELL Another year closes; the last quiz are being taken; the last issue of the Kansan appears today. Some of us will go out next week with sheepskins, to add our names to the long list of K. U. alumni. Some of us will line of work which will prevent our returning to school next year to win a degree. Deans and professors are leaving to take up positions in other schools in distant areas of the country. Next fall there will be new faces, new buildings, even a changed campus to greet our eyes when we return. But it will still be K. U, whatever alterations the summer may bring. Though every face on the campus be new, there will still be behind the institution that spirit which has made of it a great University. And that is why we can smile as we say "Farewell." JUST A THOUGHT And as for the sugar question, they're having better times in Cuba with our bitter times in the U. S. A. Do you remember when you were in the grade school how much you used to enjoy the day before Memorial Day? Do you remember how old soldiers, dressed in faded blue uniforms, with the buttons still gleaming from their recent polishing, came to school and related to classes of open-cyed little children stories of their war experiences? But Memorial Day was instituted for the purpose of revering the memory of such men as those. They and all who have worn the uniform of our country deserve at least a moment's thought. We are not too busy or toelfish to accord them that. All that was a long time ago, and many of those soldiers have died since that time. Those that are living are probably too old to continue their trips to school. --- A freshman asked how to spell dollar the other day. He is not ignorant, but he has been in Lawrence nearly nine months. OUR CHAMPIONS The sun is going down on University athletics for the present school year. It is the termination of a long, gruelling period of training and of competition with other conference universities and colleges, during which they have not always worn the wreath of victory, nor have they made Stadium Field invulnerable to the attacks of the invading enemy. But, retrospectively, that consideration is only of incidental importance because Kansas athletes have "played the game." They have lived up to the reputation long ago established in the Valley of Kansas' clean sportsmanship. They have hit the line hard, not only in victory, but in defeat. Saturday, Kansas bats brought home another championship to Mount Oread, a companion for the basketball championship which the Crimson and Blue quintet decisively won earlier in the school year. And K. U, C. again swell forth with, "We Own the Valley." It takes the Chinese to make laukrymmen, chop suey and banditry famous, although we have more of each in America. The war is over, yet there remains in our penitentiaries a great number of "political offenders," prisoners accused of designs to hinder the prosecution of the war. AFTER FIVE YEARS All of it is probably true. But that was five years ago. Even five years does not lessen the magnitude of a crime like treason, but many of these prisoners are not guilty of treason. Just as the vast majority of Americans saw their path of duty lying down the way of military service, so these few saw their down the way of peace. The difference in most cases was not one of intent or loyalty, but a difference in the conceptions of duty. Both asked for peace; one wanted to fight for it, the other didn't. Their policies were dangerous to the country five years ago, and it was right that they be placed where they might do the country no injury. But now there can be no harm in their freedom. After all, if there is freedom of speech at all in this country, it should be evident during times of peace. A country in war must expend every effort in winning that war, even if that entails the muzzling of some citizens. But—peace time is different. If there is one dangerous anarchist among the number now lying in prison, it is better that he go free than that dozens less guilty spend long terms behind stone walls. Now we've unmurthood the fellow who is still asking who took first place in the Neanderthal race. JUST A DOG I'm just a dog. I haven't the prestige of Pi, nor the freedom of Rex. I haven't even a name. Somehow, I just found myself here. I don't know who brought me or when I came. As I said, I'm just a dog. I've never had many friends. People have always been often to busy to play with me. I've been lonely, sometimes, for someone to notice me. Yesterday I lay on the grass upon the campus. The sun was warm, but I wanted a friend. People passed me, some smiling, some with worried frowns on their faces. One boy passed, a big, slow-moving person, with shoulders sagging. That wasn't right. Something was worrying the boy. So I followed him, running out occasionally in front of him to let him see me. I wanted him to know he had a friend. The poor boy needed one, for he took me. He brought me home and gave me something to eat, and talked a lot about a man "without brains enough to pass the course," and "what an ass he really was," and "of course, the family will how." But he's kind to me; he pete me; and maybe, when he finds how badly I need one, he'll give me a name. Until then, I'll have to be just a dog. Politics has played a part in the life of men for so long a time that it is come to be a matter of small concern now. Perhaps some good has been done the world; perhaps, as is often claimed, good government is the result of active politics. Oklahoma is probably the best example of what is happening. That state is young; her educational institute was founded in her influence through the state. And now comes a political situation which is destined to harm more, perhaps, than any other thing could do, the educational advancement of the state. POLITICS AND EDUCATION But when politics comes to dominate the educational field, it is time for the people to pause and take stock of the situation.

The Commencement Concert of the School of Fine Arts will be given in Fraser Hall Friday evening, June 1. The public is invited. TUTTER Applications for 1923-1924 for Student Auditor should be filed immediately with the Chancellor. The position carries a salary of one hundredth of a dollar. APPOINTMENT OF STUDENT AUDITOR: "Monitor" Retracts Story "I do not feel that in the case of this story the facts justified the publication, nor does it frankly to express my regret for publication," concluded the letter. The subject for the Hattie Elizabeth Lewis Prize Essays on Applied Christianity for the year 1923-4 will be the Application of the Teachings of Jesus to the Responsibilities of the Creative Artist, as for instance, the Poet, Novelist, Dramatist, Painter, Sculptor, Architect. Mr. Abbott expresses regret that the Monitor was led to publish the story, adding that the Monitor realizes that in matters which are the subject of grave controversy, such as this matter of vicious infection, it is posed with great difficulty.

DYER, Dean of Men. whim of political leaders over the state, bows to their will, and appoints them to positions of importance in the leading schools. It matters not whether they are educators or administrators; they are politicians. Therefore, they get the appointments. MARGARET LYNN, Chairman of the Committee Notices of awards of honors for announcement on Commitment Days should be left at the Chancellor's Office before Thursday evening, May 31st. High-handed methods like these are bound to bring protests from a citizen body which scorns to stand by and see its educational system hampered by politics. And the governor intimates that it is his business. Perhaps so. But it is Oklahoma's business, too. Chancellor Lindley is in receipt of a letter from Willis J. Abbott, editor of the Christian Science Monitor, in which the editor says he has investigated carefully the story published some months ago, criticising the University of Kansas for some of its methods in the use of animatronic characters that the facts do not appear to bring out the story as published. FELLIWSHIP AND FAME Another class is about to be graduated. And with that class, leave several big men, men who have been an outstanding influence on the campus. Their leaving is to be regretted, because of their influence—their activity. With these, each of us know another; perhaps each a different one. He doesn't leave lengthy records beneath his name. He couldn't not to everyone upon the campus, as one well known, casually. He didn't seek activity. But he did have friends—a whole cortegue of real friends, it seemed to you. He knew you well, you knew him well. And his leaving will be regretted, but greater than that he will be remembered, not because he was president of something, nor because he was once a secretary, but because he knew fellowship. One we respected, the other we knew. Only One Patient Lost In Last Five Years at University Hospital Dispensary Calls, X-Ray World and Vaccinations Increase During 1923 Only one patient has been lost by the University Hospital in the last five years. The number of dispensary calls increased from 6,728 in the year 1920-21 to 12,456 during 1921-22. This year the number of dispensary calls totaled 9,071. During the years '21 and '22, the number of vaccinations dropped from 1,169 to 1,169. There was a corresponding increase in the number of visits made to students in rooms and in the number of hospital patients. One hundred and fifty-eight X-ray pictures have been made this year. The X-ray work was hampered last year because the old machine was out of order. Only 31 surgical operations were made last year, while 64 operating room surgery was done in the operating room and 55 minor operations in the dispensary. February is the leading month in the daily average of the number of dispensary patients treated. December and January rank the same, while October had the next highest record. November ranked next, and March had the least number of any of the months. The number of involucrations given this year, shows that several persons took just one or two of the shots instead of three. The dispensary of the Hospital will probably close Saturday noon. The Hospital will be closed all summer until next week, beginning of school next year. (A report of the work is sent to the Chancellor every year). As the University does not own the building which the Hospital occupies, it is to be again released for next year. Twenty-nine R.O.T.C.
