CLOSED LIBRARIES More than once has the Kansas commented upon the schedule of open hours used by departmental libraries at the University. This year conditions seem to be as bad as ever, and no immediate relief is in sight. Psychologists tell us that there is power in repetition; hence once more the Kansas repeats. The departmental libraries are opened for use during the day, and are closed at night; even the open hours during the day are limited, the doors being closed during the noon period. For the student who has a great deal of leisure time, this schedule is perfectly satisfactory, but for the man who must work while attending the University, the library hours are a serious handicap. Many self-supporting men and women at K. U. find it necessary to spend all or a large portion of each afternoon in remunerative work; such students nearly always have a full schedule of classes in the morning, and thus when they are enrolled in courses requiring work in the departmental libraries, they are confronted by an almost insurmountable obstacle. One such student recently remarked that he would gladly spend the noon hour on library work, but the doors are closed even then. Throughout the state there is no small amount of feeling that the University of Kansas is becoming a "rich man's school"; this belief is doubtless augmented by the job situation here. The town of Lawrence is simply too small to furnish jobs for all those who wish to work while attending K. U. That condition can not be helped, but such things as the library situation which has just been described can be remedied. This is not a "rich man's school," and everything possible should be done to refute that belief among the people of the state The Kannan is aware that it costs money to keep departmental libraries open at night, and that state appropriations are not always sufficiently large to pay for everything needed. Nevertheless, longer departmental library hours are not merely an improvement which be "nice" something or ostentation display The thing for which this plea is made is an urgent need—a need of the working men and women of the University. Frank Brooks says of the first department store in Kansas City," Shan'tn's leading stock in trade was dry goods but he had other articles that were not sold by the yard." Evidently "fire-water" was as much in demand then as now. SUNDAY EVENING Some people may call the man juritical who voices an opinion for the keeping of the Sabath, but it does seem highly improper and disrespectful that boisterous cries of "Rally" should be heard on a University campus on Sunday evenings. Such demonstrations are doubtless made by thoughtless students giving vent to excess "pep", but such carelessness often leaves the visitor with an unsavory imprasion of a highly respectable institution. SKIRTS, LONG AND SHORT The short skirt, its defenders told us, was based on common sense. It was economical; it did not take as much cloth. It allowed freedom of movement. It was becoming. It was a sign of feminine emancipation; the "clinging vine" type of femininity was gone. But now all these carefully though up arguments have been tossed aside Some shoulder-shrugging Parisian has decreed that the long skirt is "the thing." There is a hurry and skurry to let down the hems of short skirts and to buy creations made in the new vogue. What is to become of the new freedom the short skirt permitted, its economy, and its beauty? Surely it's not going to be abandoned with all these things in its favor. CANADIAN DIMES Are you a Canadian dime? How much are you worth? What is your face value as a student? A Canadian dime, it is said, is worth nine cents in the United States. It is about the same size as the dime of the United States; it looks as though it might contain as much silver; but for some reason it is worth a cent less. It will not pass for ten cents because it is stamped with the image of King George instead of the stamp of the United States. However, the Canadian dime is not responsible for its situation. It was made in Canada without its consent. When it comes across the border into the states the self-respecting dime finds it is not a dime after all, but only worth nine cents. It is unfortunate and cannot help itself. Not so with you as an individual. You can help yourself. You have the same opportunities that others have. If your value as a student is only nine cents instead of ten it is time that you take an inventory and find the one-cent leek. You will then be in a position to prevent any further depreciation. STUDENT OPINION Says We Do Not Think To Editor of The Kansan: I read your editorial "Certainly We Think" in Tuesday night's Kanan, and I would like to add a few remarks on that subject. Thought to the average college student is a bugbear, an imaginary object of Fright which is provoked only when an examination calls for such action. Then the inward reasoning usually takes the form of trying to determine what the professor's words in class lectures were upon the topic in question. The attitude of the instructor in daily recitations, his approach to the subject, and finally his manner of presentation really seldom cause much necessity for deep meditation upon the part of the student. There is no particular reason for a student thinking when a professor emphatically gives the class his own personal beliefs upon a subject. The student naturally accepts them, for he feels that the class is true, and of course the student is still interested by the idea that the grade given will be more acceptable if the student's opinion coincides with the one promulgated by the professor in class. Naturally the course of the least resistance is followed by the student, and this smooth highway never passes a mile post labeled "Thought." Drifting on through the course the average student passes the final tests satisfactorily, and consequently is two, three, or five hours nearer a degree. The blame for this lamentable fact may be for The blame for this lamentable fact may be attributed 75 per cent to the instructor and 25 per cent to the student. The scholar will arrive at his conclusions independent of the instructor's teaching methods, the good student will reason out the problems presented, but 'the average student will simply take the instructor's viewpoint without serious thought.
