Once upon a time there was a Disciplinary Committee before which students were called for the breaking of campus laws. Now that has caused to function and it is seriously to be doubted whether many freshmen know about the date-rule except as a sort of a vague tradition of which the upper-classman tells and which they are inclined to disbelieve. It's just about as 'bad' as that Dates parade openly without fear of being brought to time. The same question arises concerning it as in the case of the anti-cigarette law in Kauai. It is better to have a law that is openly flouted and scorned than none at all? Constant disobedience of a rule brings only disrespect for the authorities imposing it. This is not a plea for the removal of all restraints on the student conduct, however. Without question, they are necessary. But it does seem as if something a little fairer than the present blanket date-rule could be worked out. Other schools have done it; why not K. U.? Why are the Missouri politicians making such a fuss over the appointment of Nat Goldstein as internal revenue collector at St. Louis, Judging from his name Nat should be the best collector St. Louis ever had. TYPES OF DISHONESTY Dishonesty — a word at which every one looks askance at when he thinks of it with its attendant applications. And yet more than a fair degree of it exists in and about the campus. The student is prone to think that the libr the thief, the cheat, and other types of dishonest folkers are far removed from him—but he does not think to the bottom of things. Dishonesty may mean more than stealing a neighbor's clothes, work, or honor; it may consist of other things than trolling a naked untruth to a friend or foe. "The dishonest man is he who does less than his part or takes more than his share." What then is the individual who slides through a course with poorly prepared lessons and a friend's assistance? How shall the man or woman be classified who never surveys on a disrespectable committee because he or she is "too busy," or who breaks an appointment because it is inconvenient to keep it? Can not these types be justly classified with those who do less than their part? which comes to the group, but never feels bound to assume any censure or blame if the plans go awry, no matter how instrumental he may have been in bringing about the trouble. If truth and justice are fundamentals of good citizenship why not rule out petty dishonesty as well as the gross offense punishable by law? Why not seek contention in an inner consciousness which is above littleness and deceit, and not below the high st and best that lies within reach? Miss Jenette Rankin, ex-congresswoman asserts that she sees a woman president in the future. Who was it that accused women of being short sighted? "RAVEN" SOCIETY A unique organization, called the "Raven Society," exists at the University of Virginia, memorializing the student life of Edgar Allen Poe, who spent one term at that institution. The society takes care of the room occupied by the author, preserves the Poe moments, and otherwise fosters the memory of the famous American This is all the more unique when it is known that Poe left the University because his foster father was not satisfied with his conduct there. Most of his time was idle, is appears in browsing idly in the library. Poe also left West Point because one of his favorite pastimes was lamination his superiors and giving vent to a rather erreious critical ability. Poe's foster father exhibited a very natural trait in becoming dissatisfied with the author's conduct because he spent much of his time fingering the leaves of forgotten lace in a dusty library. It is very probable had the foster lived a half century later, he would have all the more vehement. Fathers do not send their sons to college to fretter away their time among useless and musty volumes by forbears instructed. Their attitude frequently is that this is all right for girls, but the boys must acquire something that can be expressed in the ring of the cash register. So Poe went home, and another chapter was written in his life that later was of value to his sensational biographers. It is this tendency toward utra-commercialism that is doubtless at the bottom of the fact that American men of letters do not include more of sparkling genius. Literary genius does not thrive in an environment characterized by perennial dotharasing. If Fpo were a modern college student, he would doubtless be considered rather queer and subjected to social ostracism; and, having been treated thus, he would probably enroll in the School of Engineering and spend his life in the very practical and material occupation of building concrete viaducts. WERE YOU BORN IN MAY? May is one of the most wonderful months, there being only eleven others that are anything like as good. Some of the world's greatest men were born in May, William Jennings Bryan, Senator Reed, and Pete Reedy, for instance. It is said that the best wives are born in this month, always being of the female sex and a clinging vine type. Persons born in this, of all months, should be very careful what they do on the 30th of February. Success is assured in almost any endeavor, but bartending and professional pinchole playing lend themselves most readily. A person born in May may often live until he dies or is killed by somebody else's Ford car. Their most common disease Spring Fever. One of their chief faults is that they have too many.

COLLEGE FACULTY: PHYSICAL EXEMPTION CLAIMS MUST BE VERIFIED: The Faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will hold its regu lar meeting at 4:30 Tuesday in Blake Hall lecture room. J. G. Brandt, Dean. University students who wish to enroll for summer work in the course in Field Geology or in Pre-Med Physics should do this *week*. Each of these courses is conditional upon an enrollment large enough to warrant giving it. The entire eight hours of Pre-Med Physics will be offered if the demand is met, and the remaining eight hours this summer should be approved for that entire amount *this week*. Each student should have his course approved and signed by his regular advisor. SUMMER SESSION FIELD GEOLOGY AND PRE-MEDIC PHYSICS: R. A. Kent, Director Summer Session. I am at present teaching English to the Lewis and Clark *Hard* School here. It is a wonderful school with an enrollment of over two thousand students. I expect to go into administrative work this coming year but have not a definite position as yet. Very truly yours, FINE ARTS GRADUATING RECITAL: NOTICE TO BAND: The University Band will meet at 5 o'clock Tuesday at the Stadium in full uniform for play for the May Fete. C, M. Canaples, Director. Student Opinion FIND MISS KELLY MEETING HER. Miss Helen Kell, organist, assisted by Miss Irene Peabody, contralto, will give her graduating recital at 8:20 Tuesday in Fraser Chapel. The public is invited. H. L. Butler, Dean. The University faculty likes to have things to do with student affairs, and it likes to feel that it has influence in all student activities. Now in one direction, there is a great need for faculty influence, the point being in regard to students in K, U, having more opportunities in faculty. At O, U, they have been prohibited and they ought to be prohibited here. MAY FETE: Obviously the accidents on the campus resulting from fast and careless driving would disappear, and it seems to be the custom for the drivers to see how close they can come to the ones walking. They must think "Why these contemptuous walkers, behave themselves and give me all the voad?" C. L. Suffield, A. M. 17, writes from Spokane, Washington: The greatest benefit of all would be in grades. Students now keeping cars here would have better grades in all probability for many times there would be nothing for them to do but study. If they can't go out anywhere their experience would make them study a little more at least, then they do now. Jayhawks Flown Another thing, the autos are largely responsible for the breaking of the date rule. Of course it will always be possible for girls living here in town to have mid-week dates unannounced. You can't stay at security houses after eight o'clock and get away with it. They won't even try for dates generally during the middle of the week, for it is not so easy for a girl t Josip cut of the house, unless there is a car parked nearby. Most of the many students would blow if their cars were not allowed, but they would really be benefited, and so would the University. People can laugh about walking up the Hill, but it really is good exercise and the ones who ride up every day don't get it. It would be a good thing for students to leave their cars at home. At O. U, the plan has been successful. The students are getting used to it and do not mind the ban. The writer hopes that this law will sometime be passed here by the University faculty. The annual May Fete will be held at 5:30 Tuesday in the Stadium. Margaret Bacto, Director. It is certainly refreshing to get news from home. There are lots of folks in Chicago but a Kansas man is lonesome away from Kansas. John W. Twente, A. M. '16, who is attending Teachers College at Columbia University writes: Yours, Abel J.

Songs From The Hill And the youngest prof has been bur ied When our last quiz has been taken, And the ink-wells are busted and dried; afe by dear Plato's side; Lie down for an hour or two Till the dean of all good quiz-men Shall call us to quizzes anew. Sate by dear Plato's side; We shall rest, and faith, we shall need it. They shall swoon in a flower-decked lair; Then those who have worked shall be happy, They shall fondle their Phi Beta Kan keys. And no one shall cut their hair. They shall have strength like Samman. They die on Pasteurized milk; but they shall still be堕落. Their names shall be published if Who's Who, And their watch-fobs shall be of sitis And only the tea-hounds shall troun der The flowers that grow on their grave. And each, with his transcript bespat tered And only the cake- eaters rave; (While Dean Brandt pensively sprinkle les) With blood from the pen of Miss Lear: Shall knock at the portal celestial And beg to come back next year. On Other Hills Student politics for the annual election of officers to the various student positions at the University of Texas is waxing warm. The elections will be held about the middle of this month. "More money is spent on students of the Ohio State University by the state than the student spends on himself," declared Dr. W. O. Thompson, president of the University, in urging the justification of the expenditure of money by the state, recently. "The expense is in the public mind and the student must justify it," continues President Thompson. The federal board for vocation education has approved the San Houston Normal college as a teacher-training institution in vocational agriculture under the Smith-Hughes act, it has been learned here. An amendment to the Texas state plan for vocational educational, approved by the Legislature, provides for teacher-training in related subjects in trade and industrial education in the North Texas Normal college. The President estimated the cost of a year at college to a student to be between $400 and $500. While he pointed out that a college graduate can earn more money than one who does not go through school, he said: "You are not getting the benefits he wished for; you do not waste time and money, but get experience and money. If one can keep the pace, it is best to keep on." WANT ADS All Want advertisements are cash, he adds. Five large cloaks 49 cents. Over 15 words describe five inexperienced cloaks 29 cents.
