WHAT IS AN EDUCATION
WHAT IS AN EDUCATION
The world is in the process of change and the "progress is toward perfection" but in attaining perfection we run the risk of becoming stereotyped thinkers. We are not to accept the opinions of others and consider ourselves educated.
Unconsequently, we form a so-called stereotype, which may be true, partly true, or even false, and we continue to judge by that measure, and cast out all that does not conform to the usual standard. Stereotyped thinking saves time in a speed-up world, but there comes a time when the made-to-order idea and the facts part company, and then it is that we can determine if we are truly educated. If our trained minds are capable of understanding the change, of forming a new stereotype to fit the facts, and of leading us into tolerant ways with the habits and people and things with which we must live, but which do not meet our approval, then we are educated.
An education should make us open-minded, should drive out the blind spot in our eye that creeps in through selfishness, when we consider the people about us. An education should enable us to render service that is essential and vital to the human race.
Education is not only the aqualia-
tion of knowledge but a training in
human psychology. It should make
us broad-minded, slow to judge, and
slower to condemn. It should teach
us not only facts, but it should also
include the knowledge of where
to find them for ourselves.
THE LAST FLY
He is an optimisticowl—that last house fly of summer. For days and days after the frost has saunt his brethren, he lives on in some steam-heated building, and fondly imagines that his is a life without end. Soren and cheerful he buzzes about the room, blisfully ignorant of a飞's span of life.
And he builds countless air-casesthes in the steam-heated air. He dreams of the warm days to come the spring, and with mushing faith believes that he will be the progenitor of a new race of superfles. He looks forward to that golden age when there shall be no more fix-mates, swaters, and poison.
But worse still, he is so affectionate. Time after time do we calmly reason with him asking him to go away and let us alone, but never is he able to see the point of our arguments. Then by turns we plain with him and threaten him. It is in vain our entreaties move him not; neither can we make him mad.
We admire the boundless optimism of the last fly of summer and the audacity of his calm effrontery. His self-ascensure is magnificent. But we can not tolerate him. Some day we shall dig out the old fly swatter and make an end of the sagaculous beast.
TOSSING AND PADDLING
A few years ago indignation here ran high on the occasion of a man's arm being broken during a blanket-tossing experience. There is another K. U. graduate in Wichita to whay is permanently paralyzed from running the gauntlet.
This year the open season for the K Club began auspiciously at the Washburn game with injury to a Freshman who was tossed and allowed to strike the ground as he came down head first on his last descent. At the Oklahoma game another injury was inflicted by the blanket-tossers. This time an upperclassman who was caught with a date was flung so high into the air that when he came down he struck the blanket with such force as to cut and black his eyes with his knees.
What right have the K men to injure University students in this manner? Because a man has earned that honored emblem, the K, should be granted the privilege of transporting with the health of his fellow students?
If some sort of punishment must be inflicted on the freshman who forget their capes, or on the man who bring dates to the game, why not subject them to public ridicule down there on the field between halves? Men suffer under the derision of their fellow men so bitterly that the punishment would surely accomplish the same results without the attendant sordidness.
PAID IN FULL
Ocean Island is no dead-bent. In the Pacific Ocean, just south of the equator, has this tiny island, which has paid in full its war debt amount to 3724 pounds.
When the call to the flag came in August, 1914, to Ocean Island, the tiny white population that was serving a phosphate company, sent its boats to New Zealand to be trained. It only sent its quinon, but asked to be allowed to defend all their soars.
Now, four years after the close of the war, Ocean Island, has a receipt that proves its debt is paid. Many larger countries would be proud to display a similar receipt. Although the payment is declared to have involved a "heavy strain on the financial resources of the country," no heavy burden of debt will fall on the shoulders of the coming generations of Ocean Islanners. Emulation of Ocean Island might solve a few of larger and more powerful nation's problems.
THE CAKE EATER PASSES
And now the Merchant Tailor Exchange has sounded the death snail of the cake eater, the flapper's playmate is now passe, too, and will rapidly follow her into soulless oblivion. The world will move on, and the endless columns of predictions regarding extinct spas les will woundle in the dust of long-forgotten files.
It is impossible to resist one趴 at the males, however. They can stand it no longer when the girl left flapper-dom for demure, long-skirted mademind—they have abandoned bell-bottom treussers and have taken to the manly and honest "galler" which does its work in the open with fear or favor. Of course men pay no attention to styles but "comine events cast their shadows before—even galluses."
Floyd Ogden, A. B. '11, made a recent visit to K. U. He is general superintendent of traffic in the caintain district for the Bell Telephone station that covers the states of Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho.
Jayhawks Flown
Charles Sperry, A. B. 18, was back to K. U. for Homecoming. During the summer he made a lake survey in Montana for the betterment of wild fowls and game birds. He has been in the Survey since he left school, and has made field trips over most of the United States. As a part of his work he gathers specimens for the National Museum at Washington, D. C., which is connected with the Department of Biological Survey.
Campus Opinion
In regard to the editorial, "Moon Sunday Manners," in last night's Kansan, I will say that I can speak from experience since it was only last year, that I was one of those "pseudo newspaper workers from the high school. Although we were royally entrained by the department and the great value, my impression of the University was far from satisfactory. The presence of expensive cars on the campus, the large number of smokers just outside every entrance, the girls who were apparently more interested in the next "Varsity" than their studies, the aftermath from the class elections, all combined to give me the impression that K. U. was a rich girl. And so when I posed, I went back home thinking, "Any school except K. U." Fortunately during the summer the old "Rock Chalk" yoll and that inexplicable thing called K. U. spirit got under my skin and before I knew it I was bound for the hill. Of course, after a few weeks here I am convinced that those things which repulsed me are only a small and insignificant part of the surface this is a school composed of worth-worth students, who give it a real purpose. Nevertheless I dread to think how near I came to going elsewhere because of that fire unfavorable impression.

On Other Hills
Interviews with twenty men and women of the University of Chicago brought out as five general movies underlying a desire for education, athletic, social life, emotional brain development, and a desire, it pass time pleasantly.
Of a total of 3,000 points distributed among the five general health men of the University gave 260 to athletics, 429 to social life, 680 to vocational training, 640 to general culture, and more to a desire to please pleniaty. Women gave 750 to vocational training, 1190 to vocational training, 500 to general culture, and 150 to a desire for passing time pleasantly.
No girls can weep their way through school; they only succeed in wiping their way out. The typha which bursts into tears betrays the fact that they are flappers. Every professor is wise to the ways of the co-ed. He has heard many vurrices and has often been brought up briefly to begin cry, his sympathy vanishes according to Prof. P, W. Nabl, of the University of California.
Large numbers of fish coming to the surface of the water. Saturday attracted many students and town officials. The Normal School "take" on Big Creek.
The phenomenon was said by imbers of the department of zoology of the normal school to have been caused by the sudden fall of large animals from a tree, combined with the low and somewhat stagnant condition of the "take."
Miss Edna Baakek, student at the University of Missouri, may lose her sight as a result of injuries received Monday when she poured together two chemicals which ignited and caused serious burns. She occurred in a chemistry laboratory.
Smiths have stepped away out in the lead over Joneses, among the students attending Washburn college. Twelve Smiths are registered for attendance among one thousand students, while there is but one Jones, according to the student directory which has just been published.
"Flapping Thur" was the name of the face presented at the University of California. It brought back the queer campus customs of a quarter of a century ago. One act based upon historical occurrences of the University in 1898 served as a contrast to the last act which portaged the ultra-modern action of campus flappers at the present time.
