UNCLE JIMMY GREEN
Today would have been the eighty-first birthday of "Uncle Jimmy" Green. He came to the University of Kansas in 1887 and was the first dean of the School of Law. Then the School consisted of forty students and was located in Fraser hall. "Uncle Jimmy day" was started in 1962, two years after the School of Law had moved into Green hall. named in honor of the late Dean Green. "Uncle Jimmy" acquired his title in 1896.
"Uncle Jimmy's" friends were not confined to law students. Every man and woman in the University who loved democracy was a disciple of "Uncle Jimmy" Green.
KANSAS AND AMENDMENT EIGHTEEN
Kansas has been called a haven of safety for run runners, booglers, and other illegal handlers of intoxicating liquors. Eight hundred stills, it is said, were found out over the state. perhaps all this is true. But why point at the sheeriffs and prosecuting attorneys, and bewail the fact that the state is going to the bow-wows? It is the people who allow such practices to continue who are responsible.
If it were Kentucky or a similar region of inaccessibility where prohibition agents have to come up a narrow path one at a time, and then all that is left of each one is a will and a life insurance policy, then the laxity of enforcement might be more excusable. Here, in an open community where everyone knows his neighbors' business, still operating and liquor pedding are done more or less with common consent. When Kansas realizes this she will no longer be a haven.
COMMONNESS
Another cause for the decadence of the American people has been unerticed. According to Gertrude Atherton, the prominent English writer, commonness is the terrible national vice which is eating out the heart of America. Commonness is, in her vexuaries, like of manners.
Americans travelling on the continent have always been scored for this fault, and many times the fact has been driven home. Possibly the charge is just according to European standards, but judging comparatively it is not just. Manners are after all only kindness the world over. The savvy, polish and stiff formality of the French, Italian and English peoples are only conventional additions to the main truth of manners in themselves. Perhaps we are too careless of conventionnalities. Perhaps some man did fail to rise when Miss Atherton came into the room. She says nothing about what a person in the same social scale in England might do. An indictment, to be just, must be based upon conditions as a whole—not on observation of a small part of things. Being disappointed in a few, she indicts all of the people. If commonness is the national vice of America, it would seem that she might go serenely with, at least some comfort in the thought which Lincoln so naively expressed when he said that "God must love the common people because he made so many of them."

The Platform of the Representative Ticket
Student government must be managed by the students themselves or it is a miserator and a farce. Student government is founded on the obvious principle that any worth while control of students must come from themselves or else such an institution not only obtains money from them under false pretenses, but it also makes them appear to understand of rules and regulations which do not truly represent their desires.
The Women's Student Government Association in the past has been far too frequently criticised for policies and rules which were simply handed to them with the instructions that these were to be put into effect. As you know many of these rules have failed of
One of the reasons for these undesirable and unenforceable rules is that there has been no continuity in the personnel of the Council from year to year. The Chief Executive acquainted with the functions of student government and the resources of committee work. Because of this fact the Representation Committee of the Council faced the fences of all available Council women who have this year proven their executive ability, and in all instances the election of women of known experience was approved.
To make "student" government more than a name the Repres-
sentative ticket requests the adoption of the following specific changes which will
4. The election of women of known independence, representative of the entire student body, and meriting office because of unselfish accomplishment in the past and loyalty to the laudable efforts of the University.
3. The enactment of enforceable rules in accordance with the desires of the students.
2. The repeal of rules, which because of their nature are unenforceable and cause a spirit of law violation which is most undesirable.
1. More control of student affairs by students.

The 1924 Jayhawker
needs as editor and business manager, two men who are qualified to publish and manage a creditable, representative annual for the University of Kansas. There are certain requirements which these two men must measure up to. Social or political affiliation should have no influence in selecting these two men. An annual can be made to pay cut, or it can easily run behind. It can be a good representative publication, or it can be a cheap, ill-arranged book. The men you elect will largely determine which kind of book the 1924 Jayhawker will be. Fachacamac urges that you consider the qualifications of its two candidates.
Frank Rising for Editor
Frank is a Lawrence boy, and a graduate of the Lawrence High School. He residence at the University to become better acquainted with University life and traditions than the average student. He will be able to spend time in planning the 2024 Jayhawk.
In Frank Rising, for editor,

among the highest in scholarly
research. Frank's academic
time has been active in student
affairs. Frank is considered an
"A" student, and made the
Dean's honor roll in both his
college years and his sophomore
years.
Frank is a Journalism major and is a member of the University Daily Kansan Board. He has done several clever work for the Kansan, and ranks high in the department. He is also charter member of Pen & Scroll, a literary organization.
During the recent memorial campaign he was chosen as a captain, and did good work. He is a member of the Owls, and is Associate Editor of the Sour Owl. If you elect Frank Parnell you will be assumed a 1924 Jayhawk of the highest standard.
