TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1923 Think of those poor Yanks on the Rhine with incomes of three million marks and upward having to come home and serve for a paltry $30 a month. WORK AT HOME David Lloyd George, ex-prime minister of Great Britain, in an article Saturday for the American press, warns of a new war. The military preparedness on the continent is for him an omnious sign. "Europe has not learned the loss of war," he declares. Lloyd George undoubtedly sees the danger. But on whom does he give the blame? On England. Not at all. The countries on the continent are at fault, he writes. For he resounds. "Navies are essentially defensive weapons. But armies are grabbing machines." A good distinction—for England. For Great Britain is a maritime nation. A large army is of little use to her. A navy is all the weapon England needs. The countries on the continent are not protected by navies. England believes she needs naval armament for protection; the nations on the continent feel that they need armies for self-defense. To them Lloyd George's argument is not conclusive. A less prejudiced view would show Lloyd George that his own country has not learned the lesson of war. Great Britain is doing her share in bringing about the crisis by naval armament. It has been rumored that there is a coffin trust. Living is too high, and if it's going to cost more to what's a following去 to do anyway? THE ART EXHIBIT The thirty-two oil paintings showing the work of members of the Chicago Society of Artists on exhibition this week and next on the top floor of East Administration building offer an opportunity of seeing a representative collection of the work of modern artists. That fact in itself is sufficient reason for the School of Fine Arts' bringing the collection here. The University in turn owes the exhibition intelligent inspection and appreciation as its privilege and duty No comment has thus far been made as to the quality of the work exhibited, although the fact of this showing of it indicates the high standard and meritorious work of the Society. However, this circumstance may afford keen pleasure in permitting one to place his own real valuation on the paintings, untouched by previous prejudice or the opinion of others. Of the scarcity in Kansas of opportunities as are afforded by an exhibition of this sort it is hardly necessary to speak, though the University is unusually fortunate in the Thayer collection. The galleries will be open each afternoon of the exhibit. Davis is going to divide the "pie" with the Republicans. We know how they will feel —just like we used to when slater got the biggest piece. Day by day in every way, assignments are getting bigger and bigger. A LONG FELT WANT There is one situation on the hill at needs more attention and consideration from the University administration. The freshmen have almost completed one semester's work and are now considering their schedule for next semester. It is felt by many that they do not have the information that will help them choose their new courses wisely. The first year students themselves say they are obliged to make inquiry among the student body to secure the information they need. a few statistics giving those facts a few statistics giving these facts could be compiled by the administration with very little outlay of time or expose. These facts should include a list of the instructors in each department who do not require notes; a list of those who are "smaps"; a quite complete list of the teachers who ride their hobbies in class, together with a brief discussion of the hobby itself; and perhaps, the names of those instructors who fail the back rows of their classes. Perhaps the upperclassmen could add items that they have found especially helpful. No doubt it is merely an oversight that such a list has not already been compiled, and one should be published immediately. You may consider yourself the sai of this earth, but remember there are ever and ever so many little granules. JUSTICE PITNEY'S SUCCESSOR The resignation of Justice Pitney from the United States Supreme Court, which took effect January 1, is the fourth vacancy on the Supreme bench which President Harding has been called upon to fill. In view of the criticism that was made of the recent appointment of Pierce Rutter of Minnesota, the president's choice will be serumized very closely by those who are anxious, that the spirit of reaction shall not unfit the highest tribunal in the land for the rendering of decisions which are in accord with the progressive ideas of America. During the trusteeship of the University of Minnesota, Justice Butler made for himself the reputation of being violently rejectionary and his attitude toward the progressive element in the faculty amounted almost to persecution. Chief Justice Robert von Mosechisker of the Pennsylvania supreme court is thought to be the choice of the president for the sent of Justice Pitney. The Pennsylvania judicial system is looked upon as a very reactionary body. Chief Justice von Mosechisker has an excellent reputation as a jurist. He has been practicing law since 1896 and has been a member of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania since 1910. But it is feared by some that his appointment would strengthen reactionary influence in the supreme court which is already causing dissatisfaction and impatience throughout the country. Martha Washington's picture is to appear on the new issue of four cent stamps. Won't that make George feel like two cents? It makes no difference whether it was at work or play that you tried and failed, the feeling is the same. But, perhaps in that now-or-never time, if somebody had stuck out his hand and said, "You can do it," the story might have ended differently for you. If you have said that, then you have passed one of the bitterest places on life's road. "I did my best and it wasn't good enough." A FRIENDLY HAND It's when you are fighting desperately and losing, that a friendly hand may give the needed push that enables you to surpass your best when more than your best is needed. "A bank book is better reading than a novel." Yes, if you like sob stuff. Tuesday, January 9, 1923 The Law School Faculty will hold its weekly luncheon meeting at 12:30 Wednesday at Ya Taverne.

One offers his pocket knife, Gratefully accepted. Impatient jailing of the telephone bell through the smoke. Call of "Freshman, Freshman." A thriller. One victim drapped from the third floor into the arms of the admiring crowd. Said victim being Rex, the Delta U dog. One white-sleeved man rushes madly up the ladder, breaks glass, enters smoking building. Appears later at the window, something under his arm. "Ah," from the sensation-seeking crowd. Perhaps a rescue is needed under his arm. Greesed trunk-till under his arm Greesed with cheers.

Flashlights shining on excited, perspiring faces. Much confusion, much pro- famity, many busses. The University of Michigan has enrolled a women student 66 years old.

The proposals which were offered included an elimination of highly paid coaches, control of games to revert to students, reduction of admissions to sums of 25 and 60 cents, shortening of game schedules, and a publication of all financial aid given students because of athletic ability. On Other Hills "Mother of College Presidents" is the title imbred by the Indiana University as a result of her imposing record of having trained twenty-seven living presidents and ex-presidents of institutions and colleges in Indiana. Chancellor E. H. Lindley is a graduate of Indiana University. Efforts on the part of a minority group of Northwestern's faculty to bring about a drastic revision of the athletic policy at that institution, proved ineffective, according to reports from Evanston. The group consisted of about 85 out of the 569 on the University staff. GUY W. SMITH, Secretary. To offset the feeling in Germany against foreign students who have been accused of taking advantage of the low rate of exchange to get German university training cheaply while crowding out natives, forty American students met in Berlin recently and raised a fund of 1,000,000 marks to help the students. Further steps were also taken in the matter of student relief. In Bavaria, especially, there has been much hostility toward students from other lands, and discriminatory rates against them have been resorted to.

"GIFTS THAT LAST" TRAMPING ON LIFE by Harry Kemp VERY undergraduates and alumnus, for that matter, of the University of Kansas should read the humorous anatomy book *Novel by the Numbers*, and many years ago trapped the company, The Secret Society, made him himself (unfortunately, it wasn't made by them) called the *Scientist Set*, calls him a bouncer, but goes on to pay high tribute to his writing. Hayward Brown, of the New York World, calls his book, "the most centralizing of modern autobiographies," and Hansen Hassan, of the New York Times, calls his novel "a masterpiece in presentation of the earth." Kemp is now writing a second novel, producing plays in New York, having written plays with the likes of *Giving Goose* and *Getting drunk with life* and sometimes blasting a trip to Spain for audience with the king. This book you'll make an ideal York Times girl for a friend who just affectionate. He and so many racial associations.
