THE 35TH REUNION
Next Monday will see the fourth annual reunion of those Kansas and Missouri lads who went to muk up the 35th Division of the A. E. F. The reunion will be held in Wichita on September 25, 26, and 27—the anniversary of the bloody days the division experienced in the Argome in 1918.
Although the war has been over for four years, there are still many veterans of the 53rd Division attending K. U. They will want to attend the reunion to meet old buddies and talk over all times, and University authorities should see that any veteran who wishes to attend the reunion for a couple of days be permitted to do so.
Put that in the future, and we face the present. There are still many war veterans with us, and University authorities have always been lenient in letting them attend reunions and conventions. While the veterans are here the administration will make no mistake byexecuting them from classes for a few days that they may attend reunions of their organizations.
In a few years there will be no veterans of the great war on the Hill but those who are members of the faculty. There will be little to remind students who are yet to come of the war except the Stadium and the Union, both of which will be dedicated to 128 K.U. men and women who died in the service.
NO PRICE ON LOYALTY
There need be no price on loyalty this year. Student Activity Tickets are now being sold by the Men's Student Council and the W. S. G. A., for eight dollars, a price that everyone one enrolled in the University can afford to pay. The nominal price of three tickets makes it possible for every student to see all the football, basketball, and baseball games, and also to enjoy each of the glee club orchestra and band concerts.
In past years there has been some feeling among a few students that a price was being put upon their loyalty. Of course single admissions to the various athletic contests and concerts must necessarily be much higher than those paid by the holder of an activity ticket. It is for this reason that every effort is being made to sell each student a book of those tickets.
The wise student will avail himself of the opportunity now presented, and by buying an activity ticket the student will pledge his loyalty to the University, and at the same time enjoy the privilege of seeing the best K. U. has to offer in athletics and music.
THE CO-OP PLAN
Just now the book question is very acute—also expensive. When it comes to fixing the blame for such out-of-reason prices there may be some room for argument. The publisher may get the profit and the retailer may get it or they may split it. Some of them would have us believe that there isn't

any profit. But on one thing we
can all agree. The prices current for
the past five or six years are higher
than some pocket-books can stand.
On other hills the answer has been the co-operative book store, owned and operated by students. At such establishments books are sold at enough of a profit to pay the help a fair wage and carry the overhead. And the plan has succeeded in some instances remarkably well, according to those who have tried it. At least it would assure students a substantial reduction in prices.
J. C. McCANLES, Director.
Music at boarding clubs is perfectly proper and desirable, but too many students are whining out their meals on saxophones. Then take the matter of stewards. Two and sometimes three stewards get their meals for the highlyono然和 trying task of receiving the boarders checks every week. It is a very nice arrangement. It saves the manager of the club perhaps an hour a week and provides
Even the well-to-do (and there are not so many of these) balk at paying two or three dollars for a little book the size of a Spalding's football Guide. There is something about the whole publishing business that seems unreasonable. And the worst part about it is that some of the hardest hit are some of the best students. When a man or woman is self-supporting and carries a hard course which requires a number of very expensive texts, thirty or forty dollars a semester for books is an item.
It would take initiative to start such a proposition. In a way it is something like the Irishman and his leaky roof. Everyone talks about it—first of the year they are caught with the same old book stores and the same sees the need of it—but right at the old prices to pay. And of course, after the rush is over and everyone is stocked there isn't any need for it. But it ought to come some time.
But there are some other items which go to make up the overhead that ought to be examined.
BOARDING CLUB OVERHEAD
That must be the way with the boarding clubs. It can't be the cost of things that keeps their prices nearly in line with those asked last year. It must be the overhead. Food prices have declined, therefore the overhead must have increased.
Rent, heat, and light can be called legitimate overhead expense, as can also a reasonable amount of services of those who wait on tables and wash dishes.
That is the way the business man answers the inquiring customer who wonders why the prices do not go down.
"It isn't the cost of the thing; it's the overhead."
free food for two or three deserving young men or women.
Table-waiters and dishwashers are very necessary adjuncts to a club, but their tribe seem to have multiplied as the sands of the desert.
We know of one club where twenty-five men pay their board. These twenty-five men support two musicians, two waiters, two stewards, two dishwashers, and a couple of other helpers.
It is sometimes a very fortunate thing to be able to work one's way through college, but if things keep up one-half of the students here will be boarding at the expense of the other half. There's too much overhead.
