Although the votes have not been counted and we know not who the lucky officers are, all parties concerned have presented their candidates, their planks and declarations have been placed at the disposal of the students, and now the finished product is here. Scores of men and women breathe sighs of relief, for it takes machines and power to handle even a student election at the University of Kansas. Hardly more effort was expended on the election Tuesday in the city of Lawrence then was extended by student political committees in preparation for today's election. The political parties came nearer this election to presenting issues than ever before in the history of Hill politics; still mountains of difficulties and gapping holes of mistakes remain untreated. Both parties proposed more and better student government. Better student government is a feature in University life which we will always need. It, from necessity, must be a standing platform in order to cope scientifically with changing conditions and more modern means in the educational system. THIS FRIEND BUSINESS Now that the men and women are in or ready to take office as soon as the returns are made public, may we not hope that they will incorporate steadfastly into their curricula those principles and fundamentals of student life which they take upon themselves to preserve and protect. It is then and only then that student politics begins to mean something to the student constituents. The Democratic powers that be in the national capital are insisting that their friends be given a chance in Colorado. A Colorado senator died recently, and the governor of the state has the power to appoint his successor. Thus, in the course of events, it came about that yesterday Governor Sweet of Colorado received a telegram from ex-President Woodrow Wilson, asking that he appoint Huston Thompson to the vacant position. Not to be outdone, W. G. McAdoo, the expresident's son-in-law and a presidential possibility, urged Governor Sweet, in a telegram recently to appoint Morrison Shafroth. Never shall it be said that Kansas is behind the times. We hereby suggest to the governor of Colorado that he place our old friend Amy Gump in the vacant chair. Gump was badly treated in the fall election, and he deserves to be mollified. Sarah Bernhardt is dead, but she has just begun to live for the historians. Since her death, owl-eyed research men have begun to dig into her early life and they find a mystery in her birth. Three different scents have been taken by the historical hounds, either of which seems to lead to a knowledge of the actual parentage of the, great artist. It makes little difference who her parents were. The world loves and reveres its great men and women for what they themselves were and not because of their ancestry. After the elections, the natives of Lawrence can unlock their, front doors and again live in peace. SENIOR EXEMPTION Incentive is a great thing to arouse enthusiasm. Give a man something to work for and it is almost unbelievable how much he can get done. There is a peculiar psychological effect in having a definite goal, a material reward toward which to strive. This is equally true with a young man starting out in business, the president of the United States, or a University senior. Having passed through three years and a half of college work, the average senior does not have to be driven to his studies. He has realized before now the consequences of trying too long to "get by" without it. It is when this stage of responsible intelligence has been reached, that exemption from examinations should begin. If a student knows that "A" or "B" work will excuse him from the final examination he will work much harder during the semester to obtain this standing. There is always the tendency in college students to cram for finals. This factor would be eliminated by the senior exemption plan. By systematic work during the year, grades would be kept up to A and B standard and the knowledge gained from the courses would stay with the individual much longer than if an attempt were made to master a term's work in the few days before the final examination. A senior has passed through so many classes under so many professors during his stay at the University that a pretty fair estimate of his merit has already been formed. For this reason it is much easier for a professor to judge his work and his chances of being exempted from finals than it would be to judge a freshman or an under-classman. Certainly, if a student has been in the habit of doing good work and if he is given the additional incentive of examination exemption, his work will be even better As a reward of being a senior per se, this exemption should be made. THE "AVERAGE WOMAN" Now that they are sending pictures by radio, the girls will worry themselves sick that their fellows will tune in on them before they have their hair curled in the morning. In the name of scientific research, an attempt is being made to lay bare the heart secrets of the average woman. With the impartial brazenness that only the prodding scientist can demonstrate, a research bureau in New York is asking questions of women throughout the country that require answers of a very intimate and personal nature. These questions are designed to discover more about love—something which seems to be worrying the scientists. It is directed toward the long suffering college girl—the goat of many freak sociological studies. Just why the college woman should be sent a questionnaire asking her when she first began to spoon, is not certain. Perhaps it was thought that she was so used to answering freak professorial questions and filling out questionnaries that she was considered the logical game. Under the protection of the mails, the scientist has had the efferritory to ask the unmarried women why they did not marry. Very impersonally, of course. Still under the proteting wing of the U. S. mails, these investigators want to know how many young men these college women ever spooled with and how far they went in soooning. Oh this is a scientific age. There's no doubt about that for answers to the questions are pouring into the offices. Thanks to the frankness of women, we will probably see soon wall maps in lecture rooms, with New York state in bright red and Kansas in virgin white showing that New York girls go much farther when they spoon than do the girls of the Sunflower State.

Columbia University is instituting a new course, practical political science, in which men prominent in poli- tical and national affairs will be lecturers. The author in his book answers two questions which he cites as those asked most frequently at the present time. First, "What is that essential element which is lacking in the political organism?" and the second, "How shall we make it so?" Particularly striking is the author's exposition of the relation between government and law," says the newspaper review.

A press fight is being conducted at the University of California and at Stanford to oust women from the universities. It is charged that they distract the attention of the men from their studies with social life and that they come to college merely to seek eligible young men. The woman refute this argument by frankly stating that the man are just jealous because we are helping them actually, and that, if women are in college looking for eligible young men, most of them are leaving disappointed.
