K. U. 25 and 66 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9,1923 A beekeepers' convention is coming to Topeka. Suppose they will discuss what is good for the hives. COMMON SENSE This is the time of year during which epidemics of various sorts flourish. Already, the rush to the University Hospital for cold and severe throat treatments has begun. Which brings us to the old adage: "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." The average person does not consider a trifling cold or a temporary sore throat of much importance, but it is from just such beginnings that influenza, pneumonia, diphtheria, and tonsillitis cases develop. The tendency is to neglect the thing until it has either disappeared or gotten beyond the patient's control. And when an individual goes to the hospital with one of the above named complaints, he has not only himself to consider. For the disease may spread before it can be checked and cause a serious epidemic. Meanwhile, a little working knowledge of hygiene and a sprinkling of common sense would go far toward obviating any such catastrophe. THE BOOK OF JOB Tonight the students of the University are offered an entertainment of a type that rarely visits Lawrence, The "Book of Job" is a rare recreative morsel, providing—the mental digestive organs of the auditors are equal to the meal. The last week will probably go down in K. U. history as "The Great Hegira of '23." "The Book of Job" is an unusual presentation, offering an exceptional intellectual entertainment but it is not a musical drama, nor a hair-raising, hair-brained drama, and it requires some intellectual response on the part of the audience. University students should inform themselves as to the nature of the play before they attend it. DANCE. OR "STRUGGLE" The mid-year report of the joint auditing committee on Varsity Dances shows a net profit for the first semester of $1043.23. This amount, we are informed by the committee, will be divided between the W. S. G. A. and the Men's Student Council. The student body of this University is not what might be appropriately termed wealthy. And a thousand dollars is a lot of profit. However, the question of profit is not necessarily a moral one. If the funds from the Varies are spent for worthy ends, a thousand dollars is not any too much. And if they are not worthy ends, a net profit of twenty-seven cents is too much. To all of which the committee replies: "Our books are open for inspection." Yet if the committee would erase the question mark from the minds of those who do not feel that they are getting their money's worth, there are two alternatives open to them. The one, reduction of费钱, would prove a doubtful expedient. In the first place, it is a matter of common knowledge that attendance falls off appreciably in the spring. And, in the second place, were the price reduced to, say fifty cents, the result would be: no room to dance. Those who have attended Varsity this fall and winter will vouch for the fact that it is enough of a problem now. All of which leads to the second alternative: two Varities instead of one. The cost of maintaining two halls would of course be an added burden, yet it is logical to believe that the overflow crowd, grateful for the chance for recreation in comparative freedom, would more than support the venture. Automobiles will cost the American people $2,000,000 next year, motor car manufacturers say. This does not include funeral expenses. ANOTHER FREAK LAW The marital state is usually considered to have enough pit falls and difficulties within its own boundaries without the federal government stepping in and making a few more. Love may laugh at locksmiths, but it can't laugh with impunity at some of the rules affecting naturalization made by the Department of Labor. Consider the way naturalization laws affect women. Apparently a woman has not much of a legal status. A woman whose ancestors were among the Pilgrims would lose her citizenship in the length of time it took to perform the ceremony, we she towed an alien. Moreover, it used to be the law that when an alien was naturized, his wife, if he had one, was automatically naturalized without further aid. This is repealed now. Kansas City papers recently dug up an interesting and rather pathetic story. Nine American women—citizens—fell in love with aliens and married them, thus losing their American citizenship and acquiring that of their husbands. Now the nine husbands are about to become naturalized, and the nines wives must go through a lot of rigaraneo to become citizens again. Such situations are caused by unjust laws. If women are full-fledged citizens now and have the right of suffrage, they should be placed on an equal footing with men regarding citizenship and naturalization. An American woman marries a British subject. She becomes a British subject also. An American man marries a British woman. He retains his American citizenship. Is not the distinction foolish? Plain Tales From The Hill The p. l. ed. is about to go batty trying to make his tired readers smile now and then. Every time he sees two people talking to each other and grimming at the same time he rushes wildly up and butts in to the conversation for fear he has missed something funny for the column. Come On, Big Boy. Classified ad: Wanted—Boy roommate, large. Come On, Big Boy! There is a bed in one of the fraternity houses known as the Bounding Maine. Those who ride the illusive bus are usually bruised every time they turn over. "See how the jello shakes," commanded one of the serious thinkers in the room, "who is being served." "Walt," that is evidence of how cold they keep our house." If you simply can't get to sleep after you get in bed, and the old method of counting sheep deliberately falls to function, just imagine it is about 7:50 and you just have to get right up in order to get to class on time. You'll go to sleep immediately. Try it. A Better Plan EXHIBIT OF ETCHINGS: Official Daily University Bulletin Copy received by Florence E.

This is not true today because of altered political conditions. We still have Counts, but the Count business has changed somewhat. Business, of all kinds, has undergone something of a revolution. It was not so many years ago that a pack of peddlers were the sole distributors and transporters of many of the household articles of the day. Their legs set the limits for most distribution problems in those days. Modern transportation, progressive sales methods—and advertising—have broken the shackles of time. They make a speedy job of what used to take years. Through advertising many an article has been introduced simultaneously in stores all over the country. Advertising today is the method used by business to tell you why you should have certain goods and how to identify those goods. The advertisements you will find here are a truthful catalogue of needed merchandise. Articles of all kinds and for all purposes are presented in a pleasant way through the medium of type and picture. The outstanding requirements of every member of the family are met by offers of good merchandise of proved value. USE THE ADVERTISEMENTS FOR GUIDANCE AND YOU WILL BE A CONSTANT GAINER
