A woman in Ohio was sent to a sanitarium because she had been talking for six days and was unable to stop. Why discriminate against this poor woman?
SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Another year the University has been able to bring the Mimicapolis Symphony orchestra back for two full concerts. Thursday afternoon and evening, lovers of fine music will have the opportunity to hear the Mimicapolis orchestra, one of the very best in the United States, in possibly one of the most carefully chosen programs ever presented to Lawrence and University audiences.
It is unusual that a university the size of K. U, should be able to bring such a large orchestra for a day's concert, and it is a genuine treat for Kanans to be able to hear an internationally known symphony orchestra of such size.
many lovers of orchestration would feel the price of admission was well spent if they could but have the chance to see the great orchestra assemble, and watch the men as they prepare to play. Others would feel that their time was well spent if they could but hear a few scores of symphony played without seeing the orchestra at all.
These who cannot understand or appreciate good music have lost ong of life's most potent pleasures, but those who fail to cultivate appreciation for music when it is within their grasp will never realize what joys they are over looking.
In Brookley, N. Y. a case of bringing the dead to life by use of adrenalin has been recorded. Some professors should keep a supply of this stuff on hand!
AMERICAN ATROCITIES
For a number of years American, editors, speakers, and "viewers-with-alarm" in general have indulged in the favorite sport of crying about foreign atrocities. The Germans got all the attention during the war, the Turks got their later, and others from time to time have been berated fiercely; all of them, of course, merited it generally.
But now the tide turns, and Americans have the opportunity to criticise American atrocities—regular, home-grown, front-page atrocities.
This country, which holds itself to be more enlightened than Europe, Asia and the rest of the world, has hadatroics of the crucible order going on within its own borders for years, if reports are true—and they probably are. A miserable system of ponage, provided for and condoned by law, exists and has existed for a long time in the state of Florida.
The Florida law provides that anyone arrested for vagrancy may be farmed out to some industry for labor if he is unable to pay his fine. The system had been going on for years, but the world knew little about it until Martin Tabert, a North Dakota boy, died from brutalities inflicted on him in a Florida lumber camp, where he was worked as a slave for stealing a ride on a freight train.
It was shown at the preliminary investigation of the matter that Tabert had written home for money with

A vacuum cleaner has accumulating possibilities, but it has nothing on a college woman's notebook. In it may be found, letters from him, book marks, hairs, ordinary pins, pows, paper-puffs, newspaper clippings, pens and pencils, gloves, nail files, compact boxes, a lip-stick, dance programs, invitations to parties, stationery, stamps, blank checks, calling cards, summer school schedule, handkerchief, an extra hair-net, a pocketbook with thirty cents and two street car slugs in it, a picture of the party out at the Bluff last Sunday, and a few notes. The small boy'sockets have al-
which to pay his fine after his arrest; that the money was sent him by his parents; that the sheriff returned the money and the letter saying the address was unknown. It was also shown that this same sheriff received $20 for each vagrant he turned over to the lumbering corporation.
Now let the atrocity-howler turn their guns on their own country. Let them be directed against this Florida system—a system which is even worse than the Turkish system of persecuting Christians. The Turks persecute Christians because they are devoutly religious and feel that it is their duty to do so; but the Floridians who authorized this despicable system of seagoon and allowed it to exist for base gain have not the defence of the "Unspakeable Turk."
If the Florida system of peonage is not abolished, no American should ever raise his voice against foreign atrocities.
DANDELIONS
Victory has come to the dandelion!
After years of continuous battle,
fighting every spring day until evening,
carrying it on through the warm
quiet nights, the little yellow flower
has won its war against man.
For three years the dandelion crop has tried hard to capture the University campus completely, though the carvestakers have used many means to eradicate them. With the coming of the spring rains it is apparent that the dandelions are almost beyond control. Last week the Kansan, realizing the necessary steps to be taken against the foe, printed a front page story giving the details about the growth of the dandelion and how to kill it.
We have had Stadium days, grass planting days, and many other days for doing things for the good of the University. Why not have a general dandelion day in which the morning classes would be suspended and all the students and faculty would dig out the dandelions from specified plots of ground? The second growth of the yellow flowers could easily be managed by the carotakers.
Organised houses have their freshmen out digging dandelions before dinner and lunch each day; property owners try to stand their ground, but in spite of every effort the dandelion has successfully renewed its attempts to bloom and scatter its seeds for another season.

Plain Tales From The Hill
The Seniors
Divinely gifted sure we are,
And kindly fate hath wrought,
For frequently within our brains
We gently think a thought.
Lives of flunkers all remind us
that we may flank you we are here.
And departing leave behind us
Goose-eggs on the register.
A Student's Beatitudes
Blessed is the student who expecteth an F, for he shall not be disappointed.
Blessed is he who, having enrolled in a course, knowt what it is about. Blessed is the student whose books were written to mind shall be filled with pleasure.
Blessed is (not) the professor who can give a quiz without thinking of himself.
"The De Luke is a pretty good place to eat."
"Went in there the other day for dinner and among the dirty dishes on the table I found two bits."
"Because I could go to West Ad
on a windy day, look every woman
in the eye and speak to her, and still
have a guilty conscience."
"I wish I was cross-eyed." "Why's that?"
The will of the professor is not always the way of the students.
'Tis easy enough to be joyous When your paper reads 90 or so
But the student worth while
Is the one with a smile
When his namer reads 30 below.

According to the Daily Iowaan of the University of Iowa women devote a large portion of their time to priming.
