Entered as second-class mail master post-Mary S. Schmidt, 843 Lexington Ave., Ridgeville, Kansas, under the set of March 5, 1977 and April 20, 1978, for a week by student in the Department of Journals at the University of Kansas, from the press of the Department of Journalism.
The Daily Kaanan aims to picture the future of the University. He wants Kenans; to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideal of "education"; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more serious about his ability to more serious questions to wiser bodies; in a broader sense to its ability the students of the University.

THE FINALE
Today marked the closing of all classes for this semester. Only five days remain for the final examinations; and then the curtain is lowered on a portion of University life. Unconsciously the student measures the college year by semesters.
The first semester the football season, the try-outs for hill activities, and the Christmas vacation, are synonymous. The second semester does not boast of such a variety of associations, but to the senior there is graduation, and there are beautiful spring evenings for everyone.
We are glad the first semester is so near an end, and we are equally glad that the second semester is so near at hand. The step from one to the other is slight; but to the student it is the first page of a new calendar, eagerly looked forward to. Passing from one to the other carries the student from a world of worry into a life of happiness.
THOUGHT FREEDOM
Sixteen members of the editorial staff of the Michigan Daily Sunday Magazine have resigned as a protest against what they term "Administrative repression of opinion" The faculties in institutions of higher learning throughout this country have often been restrained in freedom of thought. Why then should members of this persecuted group shackle the opinion of students by administrative repression?
Can the college corps of professors hope for academic freedom when they deny it to students whom they are supposed to instruct? Freedom of thought may never attain a commanding position in colleges and certainly it should not if student opinion is to be ignored by a group of administrative officers.
Co-operation between students and faculty is the only solution for this problem. Freedom of thought must be respected by both and when this is accomplished within a university or college, then the outside world will not be so prone to criticise academic men for their views and opinions in the class room.
WHETTED NATIONALISM
Patriotism is an admirable thing. To die or to offer one's life in the service of one's country is a great thing, but when either is contaminated by insincerity, it becomes little. Patriotism does not sanction disguised murder—it is not a quality that makes brutes out of the humane, nor a motive that will serve to excuse the real brute as the humane; it is the love of a country, and a country that is in the right.
And by "country" Is meant the ideals, the institutions, the laws of a people. Patriotism protects these, but if they are false or if the motive for war goes beyond our pretentious protection, then it is true patriotism belted; not patriotism, but intense nationalism.
In this mood we find Europe, a tinder-box of fly-by-night diplomacy and whetted nationalism. It has been so through the ages, and today Europe refuses to learn her lesson. Each
cause has appealed to patriotism, and each of their peoples have answered, but with a dreadful cost. Her countries have mistaken nationalism for patriotism, selfishness for the right-earnestness.
To flout arrogant nationalism in vain glory. Peace, and not war; today the normal stasis of society.
ARE YOU AN ARTIST?
The University is particularly for tunate in the series of art exhibit being shown here this winter. But these paintings are here for short periods, while we might be uplifted by works of art of our own creation every waking hour if we but realized it.
Those who know tell us that artists paint, not the actual picture, but an idealized version of it—the artist's own idea of what the picture should represent. We, too, put our own interpretation on everything we see about us, and thus becomes artists in our own right—if we take the time to see.
But in our haste to be at the next thing, we often are blind to the canvasses that are waiting our individual touch to spring to glorious life
WALLACE REID Wallace Reid is dead.
Daily through the medium of the silvered screen, he brought romance into the sordid, commonplace existence of millions.
During his whole life, he did not engage in one divorce litigation. And that is almost a tribute in this day of corrupt movie morals.
And finally, he was man enough to conquer the dope habit which had almost mastered him.
The movie world has lost a charac ter.

Every student was cramming, still as a mouse. The notebooks were open and studied with care. Because on the mourn, exams would be there Psychology, History, and Greek and Hebrew. Then they left for Till in the hall three above such a flatter. The students all aborted, 'What, is what the

And the way it was said, the tone did not flatter.
The silence was broken again with a mime. "Can anyone tell the preserver how to break this? With a shake?" "Do we cry were sorry, or sorry we were? From a room up above, in a quarring tense."
"Please call me just why did Odysseus leave home?"
Then one of them said as she wearily rose,
"When I've finished this book, in the furnace it goes!"
So hard did they study to fill up their heads.

At The Theatre
By Ben Hibbs.
Without doubt the most remarkable thing about W. S. Maughan's modern comedy, "The Circle," staged by a writer who has written her last night is, its surprising ending. The element of suspense is handled in such a clever way that the play-goer is kept guessing almost every time he sees what really finds that he has guessed wrong.
The play is one of English life, based upon an episode in the lives of members of the British aristocracy. The theme is that of unhappy marriage, and the thing is presented quite forcefully. The marital difficulties of Arnold Champion and Charles Hockett, seemed to be almost an exact repetition of his father's experience of thirty years before.
"The Circle" is called a comedy, but to the average American audience the term seems to be somewhat of a mianonner. The play is noteworthy for its portrayal of conflicting ones and characters; it is a humbler heavier production than the usual comedy presented on the American stage. The second act is devoted almost entirely to humorous situations; the third act, however, is crowded with serious themes of play and affords opportunity for acting of a deeper nature.
the criticism that Charlotte Walker, in the role of Elizabeth, and Norman Mackett as Arhole, are a bit unconvincing of the English characters which they represent, is not without foundation. But the incongruity is not marked enough to worry the audience. The powers of the character is a highly disagreeable character, and the audience does not like him! Hackett presents the stern egotism of the character in a creditable fashion.

Student: Let's flip a coin. If it's bends we'll go to the dance, tails we'll go to the show, and if it stands on edge we'll study.
Professor H. (Innocently); "Well, a man is supposed to have a sense of humor if he takes off something."

"The only trouble with starting at the bottom of the ladder," mouthed the college grad, "is that the guy just ahead is always stepping on you."
All three acts of the play were staged in the same place, the a.owing-room of the Champion-Cheney house. The setting was good, but the lack of variation detracted some what from the comedy.

SIGMA XI PUBLIC LECTURE:
Amelia Bingham, playing the part of Lady Catherine Champion-Chichey, has a difficult role; her is the task of dressing Henry Chichey, frivolity, and great sorrow. Henry E. Dixey, as Clive Champion-Chichey, was at his best in the first act, and did not seem just to find himself. In the closing action of the last scene.
