The Daily Kamaan aims to picture the real life of students in Kenya; to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals they wish to see be printed; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more serious problems to wiser banks; to more serious problems to their ability the students of the University.
FRIDAY, JANUARY 12. 1923.
"Kills Himself beforemirror"—poor fellow, how all of us can sympathize with him. That is what you would call morbid reflections.
NO DICTATION
The newspaper of today is not a petty institution controlled by the feelings of an editor; neither it is to be directed by the dictation which some of its readers give so fully. The Kansan is a student publication, made possible by the co-operation of students in the department of journalism, but it strives to maintain as high a moral code as that found in any newspaper. It would seem that various members in the University faculty are unaware of the real purpose of the Kansan, which is to give the news of the Hill in a clean and straightforward manner. Because the Kansan is a student publication it has appeared at times that some faculty members believe they have the right to dictate to the Kansan certain policies which they wish carried through.
No faculty member has the right to dictate to the Kansan, under the present system of management. It is a newspaper that holds itself above being dominated by any one person, or any clique. The Kansan is always glad to receive suggestions, but is never open to dictation.
Probably these few persons who have made themselves thoroughly obnoxious in the Kansan's eyes, would think it an outrage if every faculty member in the University were allowed the same privilege that they feel should be exclusively theirs.
It is announced that the laws will use the honor system in making grades—meaning, it is presumed, that from now on it shall be, "Your Honor, this," and "Your Honor, that..." But the co-educational schools still manage to "get by" with the "Dear Professor" line.
A RECLAIMED GEM
History is filled with tales of lost and stolen works of art and how they have in strange and varied ways been redeemed to civilization. The controversy over the lost Mona Lisa has in recent years been the subject of columns and columns of newspaper talk, and now another masterpiece has perhaps appeared after a long absence to cause a atr among the world of critics.
It is a painting of the Nativity which was discovered some years ago in a small art shop in Brooklyn by a collector. The son of this collector has just recently presented the canvas to the Catholic church of the Assumption. The pastor has asked art experts to inspect the painting which is believed to be the fourth in a series by Correggio which has been missing for hundreds of years.
And now the world of art lovers may again be the winners in a restored treasure.
The superintendent of grounds evidence hopes to aid the administration in the solution of the problem of cars on the campus by rendering the Oread Avenue approach to the Hill impassible.
DEMOCRACY
Whenever an American hears the term democracy, he mentally pricks up his ears and prepares to pat himself on the back. For has not democracy reached the highest point of excellence in these our United States? It has. Almost any American you ask will tell you so.
But if you happen to ask one of the great minority, a thinking American, you may be surprised at the answer you get. He will tell you that there are practices in America that are not the outgrowth of democracy. Autocracies still flourish in the United States; they still exist on the campus of the University of Kansas. It is a challenge to those who think.
The latest insult: "She's worth worth her weight in marks!"
OILY OREAD
Last night another K. U. man fell sprawling in Supt. John Shea's river of oil which flows merely along Ordale Avenue between Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets. Fortunately it was dark and so the man's dignity was saved, but his suit of clothes was not. Foot square skillets of crude oil are not easily removed.
The little incident last night is merely a repetition of something that has happened quite often since the policy of stopping crude oil on the surface of the campus roads has been adopted. The people whose clothing has been ruined either by their falling in the oil or by having it splashed on them by passing cars are more than a few.
If pouring oil on the surface of the streets is the only method of keeping them in condition, then it seems that at least the roads should be shut off for a few days while they are being treated.
"The French prune crop of 1922 is almost a total failure." The United States should be generous enough to send her sister part of her own super-crop—from Congress.
THEN AND NOW
France in 1478 instituted a "Rule of Reason," replacing that of religion, and readers ever since have been shocked at the blasphemy, ridicule, and scorn heaped by the maddened populace on things formerly held sacred.
Sunday in Moscow, "Almighty God" was burned in effigy, while a dancing crowd warned its fingers in the heat radiated from the burning figure. Mock priests interspersed prayers prayers with drinking orgies. It was bitter cold but wine and Russian enthusiasm over the downfall of religion, keep the people dancing.
In the light of Sunday's affair, the "Rule of Reason" appears not so revolting.
A "pledge" and his money are soon parted.
Plain Tales From The Hill
The girl, to her Delta Tau descent to the Delta U. fire—"What would you do if your house caught fire?"
The Law stood on the Green Hall steps,
Delta Tau—"I'd see that all the women and children were out first."
The gun was slamming taur,
When someone took the steps away
And left him standing there.
How empty life would be without A hairpin.
Vision of grace,
I hold you in my hand,
I drink your beauty in,
Your slender, curving lines,
Your sleek and shining sides,
I balance you and balancing, I ponder so
On the diversity of ends you serve,
The heterogeneous, comprehensive ends
Life would be without
It was night.
Great globules of water
Trembling with their own force,
Swayed from the trees at the touch
of the wind.
It was night.
Written in my cessation window
The never-dying dripping of the rain
Recalled to mind that I'd forgotten
To call the plumber for that jeaking kitchen pipe.

The one water-color in the collection is a water scene by Edmund S. Campbell, and while it is full of cool oil, the entire area is charcoal-floated by the splendor of the oils.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION EXEMPTION CARDS MUST BE VERIFIED:
Copr received by Florence E. Bliss, Editor, Chancellor's Office
The final payment on pledges to the Y, W, C. A, is due Monday, January 15. Money may be mailed, paid at Henley House or at the check in Fraser Hall where a girl will receive all day to receive the money.
Two more unusual cavannas are the studies by Sargent and Kennedy. Sargent's flaring tree is worked out in an interesting combination of white and yellow with dashes of scarlet and purple. Kennedy's autumn scene in a garden is made by minute pointillism, but fed is unsettling as it gives a rough, irregular appearance. One vacillates between like and dislike for it.
ART EXHIBIT Ryt Melba Parker
TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY
The variety of themes and style, seen in the exhibit of work by Chicago artists now open on the third floor, East Administration Building, in the art department, makes it one of the most interesting collections the University has had. Probably the most attractive piece of work is a set of three panels in a slope, a far horizon, and a graceful tree. The canvas is done in a decorative style and gives a distinctive and unusual effect.
Hall presents a sunset that is both strange and interesting, full of green and orange, but the effect is somewhat spolied by the foreground, which "won't stay flat." An embankment may be intended, but if so, the artist has not made this clear. "Valley Dyke" is a good, positive landscape, and the cow in the background, following Van Dyke's criticism, is not a 'tov cow.'
Minnie Harms Heebe is reminiscent of Sanden in her vividness of color and boldness of contrast, but she is not so daring in her use of medium and her technique is far from being so reckless. Carl Kraft, in his "Deciem Dau" has made use of unusual effects, the effect is very realistic and convincing.
All men who have filed exemption cards in the Physical Education Department must call and have same verified before January 19th, otherwise an examination will be suspended.
"An Old World Street," by J. Allen St. John, is done in minor tones of brown, rose, and gold, with a flash of scarlet in the foreground. J. A. Spelman has done an old homeestead against quiet purple hills that is restful and full of dreams tinged with
E. B. STOUFFER, Acting Dean.
Efforts on the part of the minority group of the faculty$^a$ at Evanston, IL., to bring about a drastic revision of the athletic policy at that institution proved ineffective. According to President Scott, the group considered it more likely that he would university staff. The proposals which were offered included an allowance of highly paid coaches, control of the games to revert to students, reductions of admissions to sums of 28 and 50 cents, shortening of game schedules, and a publication of all financial students as students of athletic ability.
The name for the official organ of the City Managers' Association is City Managers Magazine, instead of The Guardian. It is published in Wednesday's edition of the Kanan.
