POLITICS ON THE HILL.
The time for student elections at the University is at hand once more; for the next two weeks politics will be rife on the Hill. Two political parties will meet in secret sessions, choose a number of prominent University men for their candidates, and then proceed to carry out the campaign largely on a personal basis, exploiting the achievements of those candidates.
Student elections at the University are a necessity, and wherever popular government holds sway political parties are necessary. But the political organizations at K. U. fall far short of performing the true functions of political parties. Under the two-party system, as we have it in our national government and, on a smaller scale, at the University, political parties have three main duties, and in the successful accomplishment of these three ends lies the only justification for their existence. The first function of a political organization is the electing of candidates to fill positions in the government; the second is the effecting of a co-ordination between the various branches of government; and the third is the presenting of policies—a platform if you please—to the public at large.
The political organizations at the University expend practically their entire efforts in performing the first duty—the electing of candidates. The second function, that of co-ordinating branches of government, the parties here perform in sort of a half-hearted manner, and the third duty—as far as real platforms are concerned—they leave undone. Of course, they have so-called platforms. But what do they amount to? Certainly, the parties stand for the abolition of student graft; so does every right-thinking person on the campus. But as far as outstanding policies on questions vital to the University are concerned, the average voting student at the University can not distinguish one party from another.
The University of Kansas is too large an institution for the election of student officers on purely personal grounds. A candidate can be personally acquainted with only a small per cent of the students. Should not what the man stands for in government and in policy be emphasized equally as much as his own achievements?
Jryce has described our national parties as two identical bottles with different labels and both empty. Is not that a rather apt characterization of our political parties here? No fault is to be found with the type of candidates the organizations select; usually they are of the right sort. But it does seem that the parties might place platforms and policies that mean something before the students.

THE TOLL OF THE UNKNOWN
The Shackleton-Howett expedition has returned to England from its recent ant-acute expedition, leaving its leader, Sir Ernest Shackleton, in a lonely grave in the frozen wastes of the southland.
Another great exporter has paid the penalty of man's dissatisfaction with the knowledge man possesses. The great unknown has taken another toll. In the footsteps of all those of unbounded vision and wandering foot, who have thrust back the darkness of the unexplored and made way for the advance of civilization by charting its path, another brave man has given his life.
And yet the expedition is credited with a victory upon its return. "A tremendous amount of solid, scientific work has been done by the recently returned party," the report states. Valuable scientific facts have been added to the sum total of human knowledge. Sir Ernest Shackleton gave his life in his chosen service to humanity, and gave it not in vain.
Students so persist in getting in the way of cars that the University Senate will no doubt pass a rule requiring all pedestrians to approach the campus from the west to minimize the danger.
THE FRESHMAN CAP
Scores of freshmen are on the Hill every day without caps. They think it is clever not to wear them. Their actions a brazen faction of aecred University tradition. This fall at the Olympics they will have an opportunity to win the right to discard the cap next spring.
THE FRESHMAN CAP
The freshman cap is a tradition of the University. Is it a lethargic and dying institution which does not uphold its traditions? The increasing carelessness with which the freshman cap rule is enforced on this campus is a bad sign.
Now it is not for them to choose; the cap must be worn and it is one of the duties of the “K” Club to see that they are worn. If a freshman appears repeatedly on the Hill without his cap, report him to a “K” man. The freshman cap isn’t a dead letter by a good deal.
The Kansas has taken a firm stand this fall against the illiterate paddling o freshmen and other forms of hazing. Now it is up to the men of the first year class to show that they are deserving of the effort which has been made in their behalf.
The freshman cap works no hardship; no calumny attaches to its wearing. It is a privilege accorded but once in the college career, and provides a convenient means for acquainting the first year man with his classmates. It is a tradition of the University and as such ought to be revered and obeyed.
Jayhawk Jargon
Here's the layout for a snappy scenario entitled "Within the Law." The last of the Dalton hands is now a successful motion picture producer.
A baby at Mason City, Iowa, he reported to have talked five minutes after it was born. It probably said: "When do we eat?"
Some of these courses on the Hill are like a merry-go-round. You do a lot of traveling, but you don't get anywhere.
More girls are taking cooking in the high schools. If this keeps up, housewives will be common again.
If good manners were clothes, some of us wouldn't dare to be seen on the streets.
A city ordinance is contemptified in Des Moines prohibiting the overloading of automobiles to the point "where the girls have to sit on the men's laps." Do the learned counsellor think overloading the reason?
Our darkest suspicions have been confirmed. For three weeks a downtown confectionery had had several customers buying from their window and they haven't melted yet.
