OUR CHANCE TO HELP
The "Henry and Me" combination is unbeatable. Henry won't even allow Bill to be tried before his Industrial Court now. Surely this isn't a result of the court decision.
President Harding has just set aside the week of December 3 to 9 as American Education Week. He asks the hearty co-operation of the governor of each state in putting this movement across, as well as the aid of every individual in bringing the schools of the country into closer contact with the home.
Education Week will accomplish nothing of radical material advancement in the scholarship of the nation, but it is deserving of recognition and support by all progressive people for the simple reason that it is the open expression of approval by the American government of education and the good for which it stands.
As a great and progressive university of the United States, it becomes our duty to put forth our greatest efforts in giving President Harding and his Education Week our whole-hearted backing, either in some collective manner or by the work of every individual student.
The Sultan has fied from Constantinople and his haram without telling a one of his wives where he was going. Again the "unspeakable Turk" commits an atrocey.
HARBORD'S RESIGNATION
Major General James G. Harbord, deputy chief of staff has resigned from the army after being in service 33 years, leaving behind a service record that is unique in the annals of American military history. Enlisting as a buck private this man attained a place next in rank to General John J. Pershing. General Harbord would have succeeded General Pershing as chief of staff for he had been selected to fill that position after congress had passed a special bill.
No. 54.
Secretary of War Weeks in speaking of Harbord's separation from the service stated that the loss to the active forces of the army cannot be adequately expressed. General Harbord's retirement will take effect December 25, and on January 1 he will become president of the Radio Corporation of America.
"Jimmie" born in a Kannan. He was born in Lynn county, and received his schooling in the rural schools and the Kansas State Agricultural College. Alumni of the K. S. A. C. regard Harbard as one of their greatest graduates, and they truly have reason to be proud of him.
The career of this man and his success in army life is made even more remarkable by the fact that he flanked out at West Point. But Harbard had the courage to face this dis-

aster, and so enlisted as a private in the regular army. His ability as an executive, and his expert knowledge enabled him to overcome the handicap of his first army life, and before his resignation he stood within sight of the highest pinnacle of success that the army offers to a man.
Kansas is proud of the record of achievement of this man, the nation pays tribute to such a character, and the army has lost one of its most able leaders.
"Allen to Discuss Khan," a Kansas newspaper headline reads. Why not be perfectly frank and just say "cuss."

William E. Stoudt, B. S. '19, was a visitor at the University Friday, having stopped on his return trip from a two weeks' visit at his home in Winfield. Mr. Stoudt is now employed as cost accountant for Proctor & Gambale Company in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was one of the two members of the class of 1919 who received B. S. degrees in the school of chemical engineering. Henry W. Pelkowski, the other member, is at present in the employ of Empire Oil and Gas Company at Bighear, Oka.
Do grades mean anything? Too often we hear that they do not. We hear it said that a degree with a low grades is as good as one with high grades. We seem to have developed the attitude that good scholarship carries with it a stigma of some kind and that the good student, is to be pitied rather than emulated. It is said that college grades do not mean anything when one leaves the campus.
However, a study of the alumni of Wesleyan University showed that of the living graduates, fifty per cent of the men who graduated, with honors were listed in Who's Who. Only ten per cent of those who graduated without honors were listed there.
Newberry has resigned because he feels that continued service would only be hampered by "political persecution." Probably the people of Michigan have been feeling this for the past four years.
A similar investigation of the records of the living graduates of twenty-two colleges showed that six per cent of the honor graduates and only two per cent of the total graduated were listed in Who's Who.
Who's Who, is of course, not an absolute criticism of success. Its standard of success may give too much prominence to the author, the professor, or the professional man. So to overcome this objection, a study of the class of 1894 at Harvard was made in that dean of the college, the secretary of the alumni association and a member of the class were asked to name the most successful man of the senior class. They were free to use their own interpretation of success and were not to include men whose success could be attributed to wealth or family. Twenty-three men were chosen. Their college records were looked up and compared with those of twenty-three men chosen at random from the class rol. The successful men had four times as many A's as those men chosen at random.
At the University of Oregon it was found that of the graduates who could be called successful, fifty-three per cent had been good students and only seventeen weak students.
Do not be ashamed to try for good grades.
