Shortly after the passing of the prohibition amendment and co-indent with the vicious outbreak of private stills and liquor formulas there was a long period when the booze joke reigned supreme. All magazines or papers with any pretense of humor in their columns would have withheld from publication rather than come out lacking their quota of "booch" witsicisms. And in this complaint he merely bear out the above statement. In the passing of this peculiar manifestation of our American sense of humor can be seen another sign of the and but incontrovertable fact that liquor will soon become a stranger to the United States except in museums and scientific laboratories. But, waits the old soak to whom liquor is like, lack of liquor is no longer a joke. The passing of the booze joke indicates a change in the attitude of the American public toward the subject of liquor. The habit of looking upon prohibition as a joke was one of the worst features of the law. Laws which are only treated as a subject for contempt have been all too frequent in the history of American political life as it is, and such taws can do nothing to uphold the dignity of our government. The booze joke, then, will have few mourners, for either its humor or its ethics. The professor who spends half the class hour bemoaning the loss of time in convocations and holidays is generally the pedagogue who wastes most of the class periods displaying quasi-wait and talking about every other subject except the lesson. THE JAP ON THE DIAMOND THE JAY ON THE DIAMOND The Japanese are indeed the Yankees of the Orient. Baseball is fast attaining the dignity of a national sport among them. "Babe" Ruth is almost as much a national hero among the Japanese as he is among those in his own country. Baseball managers here are eagerly solicited by influential Japanese men to bring to that country a team which would tour the island playing the Nipponese teams that might be matched against them and assured that it would be financially worthwhile. It will be interesting to watch and note the extent to which the Japanese players will adopt American methods of playing the game. Anyone who has watched a big league game will know that the umpire is played quite as much as the opposing team. The way in which he is played could never recommend itself to the finely courteous nation. But the Japanese are also firm and we may imagine a diminutive home-run king speaking in this manner. "But most honorable umpire, the honorable ball did not touch my miserable person until I had first touched the honorable plate. And when the honorable umpire insists that it is so I am forced to say that I think the an Honorable umpire is a most honorate liar and that his most worthy ancestors were wilters before him." At such a fine display of courtesy the umbrella cannot help but be touched and will be forced to concede the point, thus permitting the wily Japanese to score another triumph. Nevertheless a common interest in a sport has always been an excellent ground for better understanding and friendship. If Congress cannot save us from war with Japan then perhaps baseball will. The idea of disarmament has pen entered to the church world. It is now proposed to eliminate the "obey" clause in the marriage ceremony of the Episcopal Church. WHAT IS VULGARITY? "Llegs is legs and Pavlawa should cover them up," reads a dispatch from Emporia. And forthwith the people of Emporia demanded the Pavlava, THE Pavlava, who has danced before the crowned heads of Europe, who has enthralled audiences on two continents, who has been proclaimed by the critics as one of the greatest exponents of the terpischorean art, Pavlava, the epitome of perfection in dancing, should cover her legs! Can it be possible that the reformers of Emporia are unable to distinguish between art and vulgary? perchance their acquaintance with Terpischore is limited to the common burlesque show at which the reformers are always hammering. But the comparison of a crude display of logs to a performance by Pavlowa is weak. The incident is regrettable inasmuch as it has been given so much publicity outside the state. The public of our neighboring states will not be adverse to believing that Kansans are crude and aesthetically uncontinued. Fortunately, however, Kansas are not wholly without sufficient culture to appreciate most forms of art. It's only the faw, as in this recent incident, that by their lack of discrimination make Kansas a laughing stock. It has been suggested to Mayor Hylan of New York that he place a piano in every burglar's home in order to check the present crime wave in that city. Evidently reformers are now trying to say it with music. KITES We hear about many harbingeres of of spring at this season of events in the world's cycle. The poet tells us of the first robin as a sure sign of spring; others muse on the beauty of the awakening freshness of the encevel in the little blades of grass that lewin deep during the winter's aroused by tribes of mutil-slinging and the glitter of blazoned tags, are said to be a reliable sign of the approach of that hey-day; the housewife putting her husband to work on the rugs with a carpet-better reminds one of warm weather; the whistling boy with a pocketful of marbles—all savor of spring—but what about kite-flying? Surely that foretells blue sky, windy days, and balmy weather! And with this harbinger come the thoughts of those days of real sport–boyhood. Some time in his life every boy—about every girl—has tried to construct kites that would fly. Some were successful; others were miserable failures. How hard it was to get the sticks balanced. And that paper would so often tear in the process of pasting. Then, the proper length and weight of the tail was so hard to determine. But after you got that old kite to going up after many a fruitless “take-off” what a grand and glorious feeling it was to feel the little kite-kship that you made with your own hands “take the wind” and slowly rise to the heavens! You were proud of your big engineering feat as you watched the little voyager dart and dart in the breezes. Remember how the other boys admired the craftsmanship? and how you sent messages to your air ship with bits of paper up the string? Yes, the successful kite-flery was King of boydomen then; but when the string broke or got away and the wonderful craft went sailing with the breeze, while you frantically tried to Official Daily University Bulletin **TEXTURE** Dr. Henry Mace Payne, one of the most distinguished Mining Engineers of the country, will give an illustrated lecture on "An Engineer's Travels in Mexico" Saturday morning at 10 o'clock in Room 269 Haworth Hall.

The class shortited. It was useless to go on. The class was dismissed. A hot argument was in progress in Miss Ketchum's design class. A technical consideration of the color combinations of red and green seemed to be the principal cause of the argument and several queries had been curated on what produced these different combinations. VOICE OF I wish to thank all my ardent followers for the support they gave my party in this last election. I assure you that we would have made a better living had we been better acquainted with the Australian Ballot System. Next year I will endeavor to start a voting school weeks in advance of the election and so educate the voters of my party that no disastrous mistakes can possibly be made.

Plain Tales from the Hill The members seem to be lining up into two principle divisions, namely, the proteges of Lord Lipton and the chamions of Arbuckle's Choicest.

It is expected that wonderful things will be heard from Boss Shore politics. Chet says he already busy lining up that he's sure a赞助er. Besides shining politically, he also broken into a head such a ticket. It's a knuckle which cannot be overlooked and Penny's startling announcement embodies the election crowds which had wandered over to Brick's to find relief from the tide afternoon sun Mr. Shore has also broken into a Woof Bros.赔, via. the Plain Tales column.

Student Opinion Will someone please explain just why the Commons charges so much higher prices for their food than de restaurants near the Hill? Editor Kaifsan: I wish merely to cite plain facts: I ate supper last night at a restaurant near the Hill, said meal consisting of steak, gravy, potatoes, peas, bread, butter, coffee, and strawberry ice cream sandwiches. The rest was at the Commons for the same food, with no larger servings, are between 55 and 60 cents. For breakfast I get two eggs any style, buttered toast, and coffee, cheaper at a restaurant than I can get it at the Commons. I believe that when the state legislature appropriated $15,000 for a cafeteria on the Hill, they intended that students should be served at near-cost prices. This is not intended as a "kick at the idea of a Common Fund," on the Hill, but I think it deals the prices should be reasonable. - A Student.

By this rule it is hoped to rid the college of those students who have no chance of passing at the end of the semester. 75 And now that the election is over, call for clothes service New York Cleaners WANT ADS All want advertisements are cash, 15 to 15 works, two sections 15 cents.
