She notes the new way by standing for the ideas (ideas) to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more creative; to be more aware of more serious problems to wiser hands; in a different way, to be the ability of the students of the University. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 0, 1923 "A Still in Lincoln, Nebraska Jail!" —within and yet without the law. Looks as if the law was a little far-sighted. A GOOD IDEA From Dr. "Ploe" Allen comes a new plan for the selection of cheer leaders by the merit system. According to this plan, aspirants to the skull cap would signify their desire to compete and be assigned a night on the basketball schedule at which time they would be given the opportunity of displaying their wares. While this would not necessarily remove the office from the annual political slate, it would at least give the student body an excellent chance to judge the merits of several men. The old caucus system has been successful as a rule, though there have been times in the past where political choices have not been for the best interests of the University. THE ELUSIVE DEGREE Well anyway, the French haven't broken up the machinery in the Ruh mines nor poisoned the drinking water There are a good many rather mature students here now who find that the road toward a degree is paved with difficulties, and many of them. The reason is this: Some of these students did not finish high school. When they grew older, however, and found that a college education was almost essential in this age, they enrolled at the University as special students. They found that, with a high school deficiency, only two things were possible in order to become regularly enrolled and secure a degree—either donate five hours of college work for each high school unit lacking, or take entrance examinations on the subjects required for entrance Now when a student is 23 or 24 years old, he hates to stay in school an extra year or so in order to make up his deficiency and get a degree. If he chooses the other path, he finds it is difficult to study for entrance examinations while carrying full college work. Moreover, he cannot take an examination on any subject which he has studied in college, and may thus find his field extremely limited. University authorities say they dare not let down the bars. Of course they cannot; no one but a very unreasonable person expects them to do. But they could do this; they could let a person enroll as a special, as they do now. Then, at the end of two years, if he has shown that he is able to carry college work and shows no signs of being handicapped by lack of full high school work, they could permit him to work the remaining two years for his degree. An institution for higher education, as this is, cannot afford to be narrow-minded. Why hold back a person who can handle college work as well or better than a high school graduate? And speaking of ambiguous headlines, the one that read, "Suit Hold up Paris Wedding" brought up habersherry conclusions, in reality referred to just another one of those legal happenings. While it was not something that could be labeled hibbies, the newly wed Montana senator, who was recently acquitted of bribery charges, said that the story of the event printed in his home town paper and captioned, "Freed in Montana Bride Case," was sufficient cause to send his martial love boat over troubled waters. SNOBBERY Colleges and universities of the great Middle-West have always prided themselves that snobbishness is an unknown thing on the campus. In all justice to the student bodies who have made this statement possible, may it be said that, in the main at least, it is true. There are, however, certain individuals who are not content with social affairs as they find them. Some of them perhaps, would like to be classed as regards potential wealth and the things wealth can obtain. Others would like to see an artistry of social position. Still others would draw the line between fraternity and sorority people and the "Barbs." Fortunately, those who feel that for any reason they are better than those with whom they come in contact every day in the classroom, are decidedly in the minority. The sentiment of student leaders on the campus has always been one of the utmost friendliness. And, with a few outstanding exceptions, leaders in social and professional Greek Letter organizations have been thorough democrats. It is what we foster here at Kansas. And the sooner the new-comer discovers this fact, the sooner he will become a good Jawhawk. One undergraduate says that he no longer jokes with Emile Coute, because he does not find it a hard proposition to discover a companion for the Saturday night "Varities"—through "auto-suggestion." He add that in it he also found food for serious thought on the part of collegiate economists. AN OASIS IN WASHINGTON What is a reasonable supply of liquor- in spite of Volstead, this is a question which is occupying the attention of Washington, D. C. Custom provides that foreign diplomats in this country enjoy an immunity from the penalties of American law and members of foreign legations cannot be tried for offenses either against the American Constitution or laws passed by act of Congress. Under this immunity, foreign legations in Washington are free to import their liquor into this country. The prohibition enforcement officials have been powerless to do anything about it. The shipment of alcoholic beverages to embassies and legations in Washington has grown to proportions which would indicate an astonishing consumption for each person connected with the legislation. The dry officers have been using their pencils on the problem and are wondering what is done with this liquor. Some charges have been made that boot-leggers are finding this source of importation a safe and continuous one. This liquor importation is made under the head of "personal effects." Our government, which is so rebellious in hunting down violators of the dry law among its own citizenship, should determine definitely just what is a reasonable amount of liquor for the consumption of our foreign diplomats. It should look into the question of just how much stimulant the representatives of foreign countries need in order to transact the business with which they are entrusted. If the liquor importations are unreasonably large, the government should ask the foreign powers to recall any diplomat who persists in fligrant violation of American laws. If a lady knocks you down in the rush to "Brick" or slams the door in your face, keep your mouth shut. Remember, she is a lady. Noticing exaggerated German accounts, one fellow student says that he received 40,000 marks on his last quiz paper. He's luky; other examination receipts didn't even tally in repudiated Russian legal tender.

McCANLES, DIRECTOR Hell Week Suggestions (Now Working) If the world keeps up the pace it has been going to last the twenty years or so we have watched it go round, it is fairly certain that none of us will live to re-enroll in school fifty years from now. Excerpt from Shotgun Quiz "Gosh, Mr. Smith, why didn't you ask me that definition last Friday when I had read the book?" I haven't looked at it since and can't remember what it said." MRS. JENS P. JENSEN, Patroness Working) "Kings don't have last names." "The heck they don't. How do they get their laundry back?" Freshmen wishing to measure the standpipe should be allowed to do so. Those passing the Delt house should give the password "Rasperries" to the freshman patrols when they inquire. A friendly discussion of ancient history; Edgar B. Firesak, B.S.22, who is with the firm of Owen, Payson, & Carswell, architects, of Kansas City, Mo., visited K. U. friends the first of the week. At present Mr. Fireskak is a principal in school building at Great Bend. He is a member of Alemania, Tau Beta Pi, and Sigma Tau. A student was heard to remark as class was dismissed: "I have been exposed to itchings once a year for a decade, and can't get rid of it y-y." Professor Flint in critical writing class: "Once a year you will be exposed to etchings of your kind or mother." This column's hat comes off, while we bow to our 80-year-old friend and student, Frank Weaver, who has on his back an absence from the University of half a century. Kansas is proud of such a student and we extend to him a most hearty welcome, and wishes of success in his scholastic duties at Everett L. Bradley, A.B.22, who is in geological survey work at Garnett, is in Lawrence for a few days doing some surveying work east of town.

Tennal, c'24, is running William A. Tennon, c24, is running a newspaper at Longview, Wash. Tenon, who is well known at the departing airport, said he had been getting with his father in getting out a semi-weekly paper in that rapidly growing lumber town. Prof. W. A. Dill has received a letter from Ternal in which he says he is working from ten to sixteen hours a day setting up machinery, and organizing the plant. He writes: "Go Woof, young man, and go to work on both yesterday and today." The paper will be made a daily within six months. Longview, which is on the Cowtie River not far from Portland, is in the heart of a rich belt of Douglas fir. The trees are very large and frequently have to be dynamised before being taken into the sawmill. Three logs often make a carload. Longview is growing rapidly. Tennau's father was formerly the owner and editor of the Sabetta Herald. WANT ADS FURNISHED rooms, modern, for boys. Three blocks from town, same from K. U. Price $16. 120 Tn. St. Phone 2531 Reid.

So is the store that sells you shoes, your grocer, your clothier and every concern or person who makes or sells anything you buy. Often these people have messages for you. They want to tell you about new goods,new styles,new prices or other new things they think you should know about. They can't speak to you personally because they have so many customers to serve. So they put their messages in the newspaper in the form of advertisements. It is to your interest to read the advertisements. They are published for your benefit. They keep you informed as to what these folks are doing for you. They help you buy the right goods at the right time and to make the most of your money. Moreover, you'll find that business concerns that tell you frankly what they are doing are the most dependable. Stores that advertise are progressive stores that have something real to say to you. Manufacturers who advertise their products have confidence in them, because is does not pay to advertise anything that is not good. Reading advertisements is both interesting and profitable
