U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideas of the students; it is to be clean; to be cheerful; to be helpful; to be more seriousice to wiser hands; in all to serve to the best of its ability. MONDAY, OCT. 23, 1922 NEW MOTOR LAWS Wm. Lawrence Jones of Pennsylvania has had 40 wives in the past 32 years. Cheer up, the first hundred years are the hardest! Drastic measures to prevent speeding and careless driving in Kansas City have been taken to the extent of $100 to $200 speeding fines, for fortitude of driving licenses for rocklessness and imprisonment for drunken drivers. In spite of bickering over the interpretation of existing laws in McPherson, rigorous means are being used to catch up speed violators. The New York papers are agitating "more humane driving," being applied with the fact that 1054 children were killed in the city by motorists last year. This wide-spread reaction against disregard of speed and traffic regulations has come about at a most needed time when cars are made with miles per hour the underlying principle. That such stern motor laws are necessary should call the speedad American youth up to the realization of his obligations to the rights of others. The reckless driver should pull himself up short and consider the much abused rights of the pedestrians who are in constant danger of life and limb from the racing cars. University students are equally negligent in accepting the responsibilities which rest upon those who drive cars. Many of them are speed maniacs. Those in this class should not be surinured to find in Lawrence equally stringent enforcement $o$ speed and traffic laws. Statistics show that the average height of men in the United States is five feet, seven and five-tenths inches, and the tallest ones are found in Texas and the shortest in Rhode Island. Who doubts the law of equalization? ANOTHER STATESMAN PASSES The resignation of Lloyd George as prime minister of England marks the passing of the last of the great war statesman. Ex-President Wilson, Premier Clemenceau of France, and Premier Orlando of Italy have all gone before him. Lloyd George weathered crisis after crisis brought on by repeated attacks, but at last succumbed to the Tory faction supported by la bor. Lloyd George had been in power nearly six years, succeeding Herbert Asquith in December, 1916, when the world war was waging. He was one of the most spectacular figures in the long, stormy political history of England. He is one of the outstanding statesmen of the world war. Lloyd George is one of the most eloquent premiers that England has ever known, and in pleading the cause of communists, he has no peers. The little Welsh wizard, whose magnetism and clever insight had brought him through many a hard political battle, could not stem the tide of ever-increasing hostility, and fell just as many an English premier had done before him. David Lloyd George will go down in history fast as surely as did the great Gladstone, William Pitt, and Diarrell. The question of Christmas gifts for the children has been economically solved by Henry Ford. His well-known cars have been reduced fifty more dollars, and the total cost includes war tax and gasoline. A STEP BACKWARD If the congress of the United States should hark to the admonitions of Secretary of Labor, Davis, it would, with a single blow, destroy completely the United States Railway labor Board, created by the Eschmummings bill. The United States Railway Labor Board, declared Davis in a speech at Athens, Ohio, Saturday, is a "quasi-governmental, partisan institution." Again, he asserted that the board had "demonstrated that it is incapable of fulfilling the high hopes of those who proposed and supported it as a means to industrial power on the railroads." Now, those are strong statements, and, founded or not founded upon facts, deserve due consideration before any action for the dissolution if the board is taken. All things had their beginnings, even Life itself. Progress is maintained only by continually reaching out, more or less blindly, for something better than the present thing. The framers of our constitution and the drafters of the bill which created the Railway Labor Board are in one class. They have grapped for a solution to their problems. To have fallen short of their respective marks does not warrant the precipitation of the country's wrench upon the heads of these men. They need our faith and encouragement. Must we weed to bloodshed for the cessation of strike rebuses; must we turn the wheels of progress backward—merely because some men, casting out hopefully for Truth, have erred in their judgment? The Railway Labor Board may need reformation, but before this body is entirely destroyed something better to take its place should be found. Plain Tales From The Hill "You ain't got nothing on me," declared the foliage colored chap, discussing his social advantage. "I've corresponded to that boarding club myself." Chinning contests are popular over in Physical Ed's department now. Three to one on the women! What would Lawrence do if something would happen to the policeman? The woman from North Carolina who craves to go to heaven via congress, should obtain some shock abuses before she starts over the road. At least the Kaiser's coming war, which is to be solnizedm in the near future, will not be as wide in scope as his recent attacks, and still probably be more affected by it. An old-fashioned husking bee was held near Lawrence. It was an ideal place, no doubt, to get even with the handlers if the corn was all red! Will we have to resort to bombs, hammers, and clubs to keep the "old time jinnener" alive, as they had to do out in the Golden state? Jonah was down in the mouth at one time, but he'd have been there more than three days if he'd just had a quiz paper returned. "Cupid is very active at K. U."- Headline in the Kanass. Yes, the little cuss is too active for his own good. Black Mask and Pachacamac met yesterday when voters were few "Quite a nice little deck of cards you have there," said one. France is going to have a Home coming Day too on November 11 Why can't she be more original?" "Yes, but it's incomplete. Let me have one of yours for a joker." In love letters "XXX" marks the spot where the man falls. Official Daily University Bulletin SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING FACULTY: Copy received by Florence E.

Isn't he typical of everything you do in these four years? SEEKING a symbolic figure to represent Knowledge, let us turn away from the muses of antiquity and the be-capped and be-gowned youth of our own day. You are the Football Player. The dummy is every knotty problem you tackle, every effort to earn your way through, every examination, every campus activity. Tackle the dummy hard, and you'll be ready for even bigger tests in the game of business or professional life. By his earnestness he seems to feel the thrill or combat. With set jaws and muscles tense he plunges at the dummy. For him it is alive, and the practice is a means to win the game. Do not say about this symbol, "How clever", and let it go at that. It is worth nothing unless it reminds you to get the spirit of the Tackler into your work. If you intend to help score touchdowns after college, he is a man to measure up to.
