U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansas aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas by focusing on the news by standing for the ideas necessary to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to serve others with serious services to wiser heads; to all to serve to the best of its ability.

The other day an instructor on the hill asked his class of juniors and seniors to name the members of the President's cabinet. A reasonable enough request surely; yet comparatively few of the answers were correct and no one could name them all! What does it mean? It means that those who in a year or two will go out into the world as full-fledged citizens are neglecting one of the most essential parts of their education. The results of the question about the cabinet members are not unique, nor should the question have been difficult. Yet this is the situation that is found all over the country today. Students, and Phi Beta Kappa are by no means exempt, are giving their entire thought, as far as knowledge is concerned, to what has happened, are forgetting that, after all, they are going to have to live with things as they are happening. They delive into the past and forget the present; they theorize about abstract ideas and ignore concrete facts; they know printed history but not the history they are helping to make. They fail to establish points of contact with the world outside, and as a result are provincial and easily duped. The fact remains that students are not posted on current events, and the country is bound to suffer for this lack of information on the part of its future citizens. Perhaps the students should not receive all the blame. Perhaps part of the fault lies with the instructors or with the scholastic requirements. A Kansas farmer has signed a contract to enter the movies at $75 a week, on account of having wild west whiskers. 'Ain't nature grand. THEY CALL IT "RADIO" Men of science and lexicographers are joining in voluble protestations against the manner in which the public has taken up the name "radio." They complain that radio is being applied to everything connected with the science of the wireless telegraph and the radiophone. The term is inaccurate and unscientific; and, moreover, the scientists are shocked at the nonchance with which the people take unto themselves one of the marvels of this age. But the term has come to stay; radio it will be; that is the way of the American public. Less than two decades ago the fathers of the movie industry made an heroic attempt to fix a somewhat dignified name on a scientific invention then in its infancy. At the outset they entertained fond hopes of dubbing the new wonder, cinemato- supply. When they found that the people would stand for no such outrage as this, they insisted—and for a time with a degree of success—upon the name, moving or motion pictures. But the public triumphed, and today it is simply the movies to be. To sure the makers of the movies still call them film plays, but even that subterfuge has caused to fool the people They know that movies are movies These are only two examples of the matter-of-fact manner in which the public of today receives startling inventions and discoveries. When something that they can use makes its debut in the scientific world, the people accept it proscastly and make it a part of their daily life. So many breath-taking developments have beer made in the past quarter of a century that the public's sense of astonishment and awe has become numbed. Sensational discoveries and inventions and terrific new speed records produce only a ripple on the surface now-a-days. People simply refuse to be surprised. Neither will they assume an attitude of respect towards things that become a part of their real existence. If the scientists popularize the wireless—and they are making every attempt to do so—then they may be expecting the name also to be popularized. And what is easier to say than "radio?" Juniors in Washburn College entered the student body with a "Thankless" party. The spirit of the party was well cared out, no dates were present. THE PRINCE SETS 'EM England's popular heir to the throne, the Prince of Wales, sets the pace for male fashioners wherever he goes, according to news reports emanating from the British capital. The prince couples his imagination with the dexterousness of his tailors, apparently, and as a result evolves sartorial embellishments for the male flapper which makes all the fashionable shops rush madly for clothes shops. The prince is a nice young chapple, no doubt, but it seems that he would be a better prince if he set moral and educational standards instead of clothing advertisements for the youth of the land to emulate. Them's our sentiments. It is to be hoped that Governor Allen will not allow his interest in the Ku Klux Klan屠 procedures to interfere with Attorney General Hopkins' honeymon. Such lack of delicacy would scarcely become a man of his position. "LEST WE FORGET" Not content with the devastation it wrought four years ago, the dragon of war continues to bech forth premonition fumes from the retreat into which it has been driven. And "sitting in" at every peace conference table is the vast, unseen army of its victims, wraiths from acre of little white markers across the water. They are the indulges. Terrible is the responsibility of the mortals at those conference tables; terrible the responsibility of the people whom they represent. Perhaps they may feel the guiding touch of ghostly fingers. If they do let them give heed. For they will be judged. Now that Georges Clemenceau, the Tiger, is turning westward we extend to him an invitation to visit the University of Kansas, but we suppose that he will be too busy to accept. As to greeting him we are not so keen about kissing anyhow—that is kissing men and animals, you understand. Now we are going to pull that one about deers. The only animals we make exception to in the way of kissing are deers. Jayhawk Jargon There's one Tiger that we are not going to kiss, and that is the Bengal in the wilds of Mizoo. Recently a professor in Labor Probem found a "crib" in a quiz book it looks like University students world through to "crib" without getting caught. Only twenty-eight days until Christmas.

FOUR LOAN SCHOLARSHIPS FOR WOMEN NOW OPEN: On Other Hills Plain Tales From The Hill Applications should be made at once for the Women's Student Government Association Scholarships, four loans of fifty dollars each to women members of the Freshman, Sohomore, Junior and Senior classes. Miss Wendy Schoehmann, 304 Fraser Hall, from 11:30 to 12:00 Tuesday to interview applicants. Editor—Are you the chump who wrote up the story of the dance the other night? Students at the University of Minesota have oversubscribed their $500, 000 quota for the campus memorial E. F. KURTZ, Conductor. Reporter—Yes. Why? Reporter—Sure, but that's where he was. There is one man on the Hill who appears in a different suit each day. Recently two women in his class couldn't stand it any longer—they had to wear a removable clothes horse, millionaire, or what? A fraternity brother furnished the solution. It seems that said young man has but one suit. He also has an insane desire for many. He is also of medium stature which encounters many others while he clothes. Solution—he borrows. He borrows perpetually. Prof. W, W. Davis of the department of history tells about an encounter with a typical Krasan on the Argentine front during the war. The proprietor of a famous Denver University "colle" emporium put on a memory book as a prize to the D. U. team. This book, with pictures and text, was a gift from the D. U. player who recovers the first free fumble in the next game. The day was drizzly and cold, and the whole outfit was shivering as if with the ague. One doughboy in particular, sitting in a shell hole with a油缸 rifle barrel in his stiff fingers, had taken the dress of his face was cinched and his blue line. A sweater in one of the journalism classes recently made the remark that newspapers were eaten at the breakfast table. We have heard about papers being dipped but always thought we would then frown as they furnished the main course. "Don't you want a smoke?" someone asked him. "No," be chattered, "th--thanks. I d--don't smoke and I d--don't chew; Um from Kansas." A graduate of Columbia University at the age of fourteen and a half years is the record Daniel Berman, twelve year-old Freshman expects to make. Berman expects to attend every summer session, thus enabling him to be graduated in two and one-half years. At the present time, he is carrying an unusually heavy course, including mathematics, languages, and Contemporary Civilization. University of Minnesota students, pushing the two million dollar dajar for a memorial athletic stadium and auditorium at the university, are erecting a miniature of the proposed structure and will set it in the heart of the campus as a spur in attaining the $500,000 quota of the present enrollment. A cannon will be fired for every $40,000 subscribed. It is said by the students that William George is "Lloyd George's little brother." Also it is interesting to know that Mustapha Kunia Pasha was the first cousin of Oliver Twist in a kind of tobacco; and Mozart is a brand of cigar. Freshmen at the University of Washington show much wisdom pertaining to prominent people of the world, as proved by answers to a questionnaire recently given the chases in English composition.
