He was appointed postmaster mail master
sept. 17, 1910, on the day of office at Law-
ley. Published in the afternoon, five times a
month, in The Times. Born in the nation's
museum of the University of Chicago, from the
first day of school he graduated.
The Daily Kannan aims to picture the lives of college students to go to further than merely printing the news by standing for it. To favor 'nawar'; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more serious problems to water hands; in order to help students in the ability of the students of the University.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1923
At the University of Oregon where they publish students' grades in the paper, the prospective Phi Beta Kappas probably worry a lot about the possibility of typographical errors.
"ALL-UNIVERSITY"
An all-American man is coming to reorganize the University Y. M, C, A. Members of the faculty, townpeople, and a few students have set about with increased vigor to supply a campus need that has been lacking for one year. They have yet to win the student confidence and support.
There are some who scoff at the Y. M. C. A. There are those, in fact, who regard religion without the keeping of an undergraduate. On the other hand, there are those who pin the ten commandments to their coatlees while in their vests they carry a full pocket edition of indulgence. If left to any of these, the Y. M. C. A is better unorganized.
However, can a great University as this, a University that is founded by a still greater Christian state, go ahead without a vital religious leadership? You think not; but you do not want a little "measley," narrow, one-rout organization that calls a meeting once a week simply from the force of habit. No! Neither do its new thinkers.
1.
What is wanted, is the establishing of a self-propelling, broad-minded all-University organization. That embodies you and us.
Due to the income tax which will be due March 15, the taxpayers are beginning to pay due attention to their dues to the government.
T.N.E
An outlaw organization lives among us! Sometimes it is in a more or less quiescent state, and again for a period it flourishes, active in the accomplishment of its sinister purposes, degrading in its influence. Periodically the University authorities think the thing is stamped out, but always a generative spark is left. The Nau Episonium, commonly known as T. N. E., remains
What the original purpose of the outlaw fraternity might have been, no one seems to know, but concerning its present motives there can be no doubt. To speak plainly, it seems to be a society for the furtherance of debauch and for the gaining of questionable political ends. If the organization were static, it would not be quite bad; if only the propagators of the thing were affected, its evil influences would not be so extended.
But a school organization must add new membership to its ranks from time to time; otherwise it will die. And there lies the greatest evil of T. N. E. It is absolutely unscrupulous in its solicitation of membership. It seeks to extend its influence among the younger, more unstable men of the University. The glamour of the thing attracts new members, and once the organization has a man, he is, according to his own strength of will, more or less "out of luck."
The administration has made an earnest effort to stamp the fraternity out, but has succeeded only partially. A number of organizations have
passed rulings forbidding their members to have any connections with T. N. E. But in spite of it all the outlaw remains, and rumors have it that its influence is again becoming pronounced.
That does not mean, however, that the organization is indestructible. It can be crushed and cast forever from the student life of the University, but far-reaching and drastic action is necessary. If every organization for men on the Hill would tabo the outlaw fraternity under severe penalty, it would die and that quickly. But action must be united; by every organization we mean not only the Pan-Hellenic, but also every social, professional, and honorary society at the University.
The fact that Theta Tu N epsilon continues to live at the University of Kansas is a disgrace to every organization here. The thing can be crushed. And where is there one to say that it should live?
With nationalistic feelings at such a high pitch, it seems that "a man without a country" would be more than welcome at the peace tables of Europe.
A LITTLE TACT NEEDED
E. Mont Kelly, governor of Porto Rica and, incidentally, President Harding's most unpopular appointee, has resigned. And now it is for the President to select his successor. Several men, it is rumored, are being considered for the post, but the final choice is still in doubt. It is sincerely to be hoped, however, who the new governor may be, that he be possessed of more than ordinary tac.
The natives of the island were highly dissatisfied with Governor Reilly almost from the time of his initial appearance at his post. At one time the disension became so great that the Washington government was asked to recall him; this was not done, and his entire term has been one of turbulence and ill-feeling.
Lengthy investigations of Porto Rican conditions were conducted, and some facts were brought to light. But a congressional investigation was hardly necessary to determine what is the fundamental trouble in Porto Rico. A haughty people feels that it is being held in rather stringent subjection by a foreign power. Be the government on the island ever so good, there is still an undercurrent of feeling that it is imposed by America and that it is not as representative as it should be.
And when the governor sent from the United States is tactless and shortsighted, the undercurrent of feelings comes to the surface in a burst of indignation. There is much question regarding the necessity for holding Porto Rico in subjection at all, but if it is necessary, it certainly could be done in a manner less obsolete to the islanders.
The position of governor of Porto Rico is one of peculiar delicacy; the man who succeeds at the post must be liberal minded, and above all else he must be tacful and patient. Perhaps the President will find such a man.
A St. Louis mail order house has announced it will equip its order clerks with roller skater in order to expedite movement, and "inject the spirit of play in work." It is said that several other large concerns follow this practice.
The University of Wisconsin is starting correspondence courses in football. It ought to be easy to make a letter on the correspondence team.
Skates may be all right in a business house, but it seems that they would be more appropriate here on the campus. Since we have so many instructors who hold classes after the whistle blows, thus causing students undexertion for the purpose of making the next class, roller skates would be a veritable God send.
SKATING TO CLASS
+
Also, roller skates would afford an excellent implement for revenge. When you saw your most cordially hated instructor coming, you could open the throttle until you were going about twenty-five miles an hour, strike him amidships, and knock him a few leagues.
Bring on the skates!
The basketball game between Grimmell and K. U. will be called promptly at 7:15 tonight.

Plain Tales From The Hill
Frank Weaver, the 80-year-old engineering student has it on us in more ways than one. If he should be unfortunate enough to be dismissed from the University because of low grades, he will not have to worry about what else we are liable to most any old time, he won't have to make it right with the folks at home, and probably return to the farm with no time off for goin' into town to the shows. He can just say, "Sh-shab-bah don't hardline with papa affairs."
Wanted, a steady, respectable young man to look after a garden and care for a cow who has a good voice and is acutely to sing in the choir.

A certain reading designed for Oral Interpt is supposed to read something like this:
And never be tired at all."
One睡眼 eyed was slowly sing-songing the lingerie in a beautifull dress and called in tones low and sweet, for the bums and worms to crawl from their lairs, and for sunshine to gladden the earth. The lad could stand it no longer. He turned his head to look and as he did so, a soft summer breeze brescased his eyes and loosely mind bowed to the old farm and the 'erkb' where he used to swim.
"They shall splash at a ten league canvas.

Dear Cap Garvin:
F. C. ALLEN, Director.
A Kansas City man had his clothing stolen right off of his back one night and the next day he saw a little man just about his size so he began to chase him, and would you believe it, Cap, it was the man who had stolen the clothes the night before.
So, Cap old boy, if you ever do get held up, just pick you out a little man about your size and begin to chase him and maybe you'll find someone to help. Don't bother about the three cents, 'cause that will be spent.
Yours against knaves, B.T.F.

This P. T. editor has done his best to entertain you and present the little features of the campus which are interesting but too small to be seen by the reporters with only a nose for news. At first the old, who wouldn't give you what you wanted, but since that we have had so much fun writing them that it doesn't make much difference now whether you 'kiled them or not.

The authorities look about on the campus here. So many of these arm-and-arm parades reviewing on the Hill each day look and act like married folks, and it is intimated strongly by those who know that not many of them ever get $6 together at one time.
Good-bye, we've risen to another job now.

The energetic young woman who has been campus editor of the Kansan for the past month has subsisted entirely on news stories, Hershey bars and book reviews. From observations made late today it seems that her MacSwine attempt is going to prove more profitable for her than the original Irish starvation demonstration. She'll be monitoring to watch, and the story is such a good one that, with pictures, the Hershey people surely should buy it. Make out the check, please, to the Plain Tales Editor, University Daily
Word has been received at the alumni office of the sickness and death of Howard C. Leonard, A. B. Leaver, and Daniel M. Connell; a brief attack of influenza which later developed in pneumonia. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Cora Leonard, one son, Howard C. Jr., and another son, Michael C. Jr., of Beta Theta Pi fraternity.
Ruth Boosterst, who received her certificate in piano in 1920, is now married to Dr. U. S. Harrison of Neilb, Nebu, and they are the paren-ters of Ruth Harrison and November 4, 1922. Mrs. Harrison, in requesting that the Kansan be sent to her in Neilb, says, "I have always taken the Kansan since enrolling in the University, but this year not received it, and I miss the news."
