Our funny-bone is remarkably sensitive when the joke is on the other fellow.
THE KANSAS RELAYS
On April 21 nearly eighty institutions of higher learning, and more than that number of high schools, will be represented here on the stadium field in the first annual Kansas Relays. The event will mark another milestone in the progress of national athletics, a movement designed to abolish institutional narrowness and substitute in its place a newer, nationwide spirit of co-operation.
Clean athletics, fostered on a clean basis of competition and fair play-s such are the Kansas Relays.
As such, and as a University enterprise, the event deserves the support of every member of our institution. It lies in the student's power to make this event such a success that another year will see its managers spurred to greater efforts to make it not American only, but world-wide.
JUSTICE TO THE FACULTY
Now approaches the time of year when graduate-to-be are worrying about the fact that there are no more worlds to conquer.
JUSTICE TO THE FACULTY
There is no instructor on the Hill who is not daily "cussed" or discussed by a student. He is called "hard-billed" and inconsiderate; he is beaten for his assignments or his unprentent calauanza. Few of us ever stop to consider the oroblems confronting him or the reasons for his cold exterior.
Perhaps if each of us were forced to listen day by day to the same time-worn excuse for late work or we were forced to sit through class after class of students paying little attention and evidently little desire of acquiring knowledge the instructor has spent a life time obtaining, we might be a little crabbed too. Or can you blame a professor for being "peeved" when you think you are "getting by keen" by sitting in the class and making open criticisms of the presentation of the subject and the professor's knowledge, when the critite's knowledge probably consists of a glance at his classmate's notebook? Think of the person who is habitually asking fool questions just to pass the time, because he is unprepared or of the one who spends the class period attempting to "razz" the professor. Can you blame the latter?
A pun may be the lowest form of wit, but it tickles lots of people.
LENGTHY CAMPAIGNS
The evil of long political campaigns, particularly in the national elections, seems to be getting more pronounced. A few years ago there was considerable agitation to shorten campaign periods in this country, but little was accomplished, and today the situation is probably worse than it has been for some time.
Already, with the national elections almost two years distant, candidates are being selected and public men are planning their coming campaigns. For two years their attention and time must be divided between their

governmental work and the concern for their job." A campaign of six months is bad enough, but when it stretches out over a year, eightteen months, or even two years, it becomes almost intolerable.
European countries find short campaigns very satisfactory. The average parliamentary election in England is accompanied with a campaign period of two or three weeks. Of course an election in a big country like the United States is more unwieldy than an English election, and the campaign, in order to be "put across," must be longer. But the length of the present American campaign passes all bounds of necessity and reason.
Tellicous political campaigns together with the long period between elections and the time the successful candidate takes office tend to cut down the efficiency of the American office holder to just about half of his term. It is high time this matter is handled by government restriction.

PLENTY OF POETS
Recently the Kansas City Star offered $150 in prizes for the best poems on Kansas City, and now it announces that so many have been received there is difficulty in looking over and judging all of them. Entries numbering 1,023 are in the race.
The average person thinks that, if everything else should fail, he could make a good living by writing. To him writing seems the easiest thing in the world; he little realizes that it, in common with any other trade or profession, requires a certain amount of special ability coupled with severe training.
But there is nothing strange about this. Any literary contest will bring out the fact that there are many in all walks of life who think they can write. Many of them can; a lot of them can't.
Of course, the cure for this is relatively simple. A good dose of reactive slosse generally accomplish it.
Plain Tales From The Hill
One of our younger and more playful deams was out in his back yard pattering around. He was dressed in his old army outfit and probably had the regular Scout appearance to them, but of the other he paused to he pulled the silly, pitched at the deer: "Where shall I put this coil, Cub?"

The Journalism Library club wishes to announce to the Plain Tales that due to certain excavation and steam shovel work west of the Journalism building, regular meetings are being planned. Since the Journalism library is at present resting on some plies like Nat Goodwin's cafe at Venice, Cal., the club dems it dangerous to frequent old environs. All members would be in touch with Baird, "Whit" Williams, and "Chuck" Saylor, head librarian and chancellor.
