The Daily Kanan aim is to picture the idea of an island of knowledge. The Kanan is to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideas; he wants to be calm; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be serious and to have more serious problems to where brands; in all to serve to the best of its ability the Kavan aims.

WHAT WE NEED
If you are to be a citizen and a voter of the state of Kansas, do you ever consider in your walks and talks about the campus what the University needs in way of equipment? Do you ever attend the concerts given on the bill and wish that an adequate auditorium was provided so that the acoustic qualities of a music hall might be had? Have you ever considered how the observatory and the commons appear to visitors to the campus?
These are but a few of the things which are most prominent in a bird's eye view of the situation. The proposal of the architects of the University is to give all the new buildings such locations as to make the finished product, years hence, a quadrangle.
There is work ahead of University students and alumni to accomplish such a feat, but in the meantime we need vital improvements. Beauty is a fine thing to possess, but so are the practical essentials—equipment and buildings to house that equipment.
With each new year the University of Kansas grows and increases simultaneously its great list of loyal alumni. There will be no driver to get essentials for our Alma Mater, but as long as we know there is boasting and pulling to be done for the University there are thousands of students and former students who will always be on the lookout for a chance to help push.
THE ONE SURE WAY
Solitary confinement for six years. Such is the sentence imposed on a Philadelphia clubman for the murder of three people when he drove his car while in an intoxicated condition.
Six years, alone, to think of the three lives he took! A harsh punishment, surely, but a fitting one. The man who deliberately endangers the lives of all along the street is a menace to the community. He should be removed from society, and his case made an example to the rest of the thoughtless of America.
But the more fact that he was the one to have done the killing should not mean that he, and others like him, whose carelessness results in actual loss of life, should be the only ones punished. Every man or woman found driving a car while intoxicated should be treated with severity. After the accident is a poor time to begin the work.
Along with the complexity of modern life have come added hazards to human life, hazards which science and knowledge are striving to combat, and over which they are succeeding to no small extent. But science, and knowledge, and any other force save one are ineffectual in dealing with the drunken murdered. That power lies in the hands of the law, and the law is justified in the sternest course it can take.
The drunken motorist will be eliminated when he receives the treatment due him.
Testimonials of curcs for spring fever never appear in the advertising columns.

WOMEN'S ATHLETICS
This fall the women's athletic association became a closed organization which admitted as members only those girls who had made 150 sociated "W. A. A. points." Heretoeva a woman automatically became a member in the fall when she paid 25 cents more on her registration fee. To make this a closed organization was a decided step forward for the association, as it concentrated the energies of only those women who were vitally interested in athletics. Instead of endeavoring to spread interest through paid membership, the object has become to create interest in women outside, through the great interest of actual members.
The plan has been most successful. This fall there were eight sweaters awarded—five gray and three white. At the annual W. A. A. banquet to be held this week, thirteen more will be given out. This is the largest number ever awarded in the University and is an accurate gauge of the increasing interest of women in athletics.
A grey sweater with a crimson ankle blue "K. U." is awarded to the woman who has gained 800 points for participation in various forms of supervised athletics of the physical education department. This includes, hockey, basketball, bally hall, swimming, baseball and hiking. From the women who come out for these events, class teams are chosen which represent the ablest competitors and then tournaments are held to determine the championship class. W. A. A. points are given to the team members. Points are also given to members of the varsity squad. As a rule a girl can make her sweater in two or three years depending mostly upon the championship teams she is on. These points are not to be confused with W. S. G. A. points which are given for holding certain offices and participating in certain school activities. W. A. A. points are given only for women's athletics with the idea of enabling the recipient to get a sweater. 1,000 points are necessary to get a white sweater with the crimson and blue emblem.
parathetically recent development it has attained large proportions in late years and bids fair to grow and branch out into competitive fields. The fact that the Women's Athletic Association is a national association and points made in one school are transferable shows the permanency of the movement. The spirit of sportsmanship and physical well-being which is fostered by athletics is well-known and if equally rapid strides are taken in the next five or ten years, we may expect to see Smith and Wellesley college women competing with western universities for championship hockey or basketball honors!
WHEN WE GO TO THE THEATRE
At nearly every entertainment that has been given in Lawrence there have been a few who have annoyed other people, making enjoyment impossible for them. Among those people have been those who didn't like the entertainment and who couldn't keep their thoughts to themselves. Perhaps they sat there and talked about it and then got up and left. Or perhaps they sat and talked, and coughed, and were bored.
Boy Howdy let's get buy--as after hours of deep thought and deliberation one of those students with a mathematically brilliant mind has figured out for the benefit of those students carrying sixteen hours work that beginning this morning at 8:30 there are only six thousand seven hundred twenty more minutes of class periods. If you do not think this true, try figuring it out for yourself.
Then there were those who came late. They said they just could not get there early, but they were probably some of those people who never can get to appointments on time. And there were those who coughed because someone else coughed, perhaps not consciously but at least unrestrained.
Then there were those who went to the entertainment from pure duty and no matter how fine it was they simply couldn't be enthusiastic.
We do not expect to have a Utopian theater, but we can at least expect the fundamentals of politeness from everyone. Every case of annoyance is a case of selfishness. The offender does not think of the other before he thinks of himself. It is just as well to remember that one isn't the only one in the audience.
According to a recent ruling of the athletic board ² Harvard University, football men will not have to participate in the Yale-Harvard game in the summer. Now, if we now receive their letters on the recommendation of the head coach, The old ruling caused an inflow of substitutes during the latter part of the game, of those players that the coach were deserving of their letters.

COMMENCMENT days are not far off. They will be here sooner than you realize. But after graduation what's ahead of you? In a few years some of your class will be influential leaders occupying positions of great responsibility; others will be placed in minor roles—living from hand to mouth. Thus far you have made a splendid investment of your time. What will the returns be?
A Studv of Leaders
The principles of leadership in business are not many in number. They are not hard to grasp. Yet less than two men in one hundred ever learn them.
Every man who hopes to be a leader in the business world needs special training—a training that can be had with the knowledge of the successful business men of today shows they are those who have—(1) a fundamental knowledge of business principles; (2) a faculty for the management of these principles to daily business life.
The two chief reasons for all-round business experience. (2)—the difficulty of drawing sound conclusions from information and the difference that any one person can have.
Through our studies thus far you will be taught a background - a foundation upon which you can build high. Why not use this training? You are likely ambitious for steady and permanent progress, it will be well undergraduate work to consider the business speciality of special training which will cut your cost in the business world. This training will be at the Babson Institute - an educational institution organized under the laws of New York.
These tried and proven principles, this gift for application may now be yours.
The specialists of the Babson Institute, in business, research, laboratory work, and study of the lives of successful men. They know that they are the fundamental ones every one must lead their leadership in business. These vitally important professionals understandable form and concentrated into an intensive one-year institution, instruct a student in an endowed educational institute deducted for the purpose of training him to occupy positions of responsibility.
The Business of Learning Business
The Laboratory Method
Since it is the purpose of the Babson Institute Course to train men for business, it is important that the course be conducted in the same manner as work is conducted in any regularly established business house. For instance, there are regular offices, where managers, lawyers and reports are dictated by the student as in an office—not written. Thus the student acquires a working knowledge of his ability to transform quickly his thoughts into definite form.
Teaching in Conference
Business Clinics
The staff at the Babson Institute learns to do the things he will be expectant to perform. The students with actual business procedure. He participates in the chilic instead of sitting in his office. He works with others for divisions of business, Manufacturing and Production, Financing, Distribution.

Classes are conducted on the conference plan, the teachers, or directors as they are more properly called, are excited to have their own line. Factory inspection trips are not long distance walking matches, but rather short trips that imparts in that particular industry. The problem discussed are present-day ones and are drawn from actual experience. They are often of which over 17,000 of America's keenest executives are seeking aid and solution courses in areas in the world. The student at Bob's Institute works on actual cases. Experienced probes can also be offered to the business main point of view.
