THE BUGLE CALL BECKONS
The force of Fate has impressed itself unmistakably on the minds of the University family since this year of school has begun. Scarcely had the University come to accept the tragic accident that took the life of a noble son, Dan Harrison, Jr., eight days ago, than a shock was inflicted anew at the news of the death of Captain Leon Gibbens.
The sheer brutality of being forced to ask deep in our souls "Why, why is Fate so merciless, so cruel?" has sobred us. Such events as have come to pass in our midst have caused a deep probing into our conscience to find a reason for their infliction. The issue was flashed before us when Dan Harrison was taken. Now, Loon Gibbons has joined him, a brave and loyal son, an athlete and a soldier, loved and reversed by all, and, as the man who went bfohere him, an ardent champion of his country and his Alma Mater.
Captain Gibbens realized those particular ideals that have made the American admired by all, regardless of their nationality. "Gibby" as he was called by all who knew him intimately, had that unique boyishness of spirit that was so strongly backed up under the surface by a sterling manhood. By nature cheerful, jocular and optimistic, these qualities were always put in the background by the revelation of splendid ideals when any problem arose to be solved. Gibby was the kind of a man that always inspired a world of courage by his presence in any crisis.
Cool in Judgment and action, this trait was accompanied by a dash, a spirit that will ever be remembered by those who knew and loved him. These attributes were particularly significant in his record as an athlete and student of this University, and as a soldier.
Out of a seeming inability on the part of all who knew Gibbens and Harrison to account for a just Fate, there has finally come the realization of an all-guiding hand, a master of destiny. Though these men are lost to us, we know that it is but a part of the greater scheme. Though it was hounded that Leon Gibbens would survive, it was not willed to be. In his less, there has been the gain of more clearly grasping the significance of his splendid qualities which he has left as a heritage.
OUR TRACK MEN
K. U, has every reason to feel very proud of the track men she sent to Illinois. When the University of Kansas can place third in such fast company as is always found at the Illinois Indoor Relay games it indicates the quality of her athletes in unmistakable terms. And this with only four men entered in the open events. Nebraska sent ten men to the meet.
The number of records lowered shows somewhat the quality of this
meet. It can compare very favorably with any in the east. Track Coach Karl Schadlemann expresses himself as being very well satisfied with the showing of the men. He has reason to be. So has the school. We are!
Merchants attending the short course pay fare and one-half from their homes to Lawrence and back. Wouldn't it be great if the railroads treated the rest of us students that way?
M. U.'s MEMORIAL
K. U. was quite proud of her stalemant last Thanksgiving day, and she still is, but she must also pay tributes to the wonderful results of the students at Columbia, Mo., in starting their own Memorial. The townspouses rallied just as did the people of Lawrence. The members of the student body acknowledged their love for their alma mater with large contributions just about like K. U.'s "uoyai-ists." Then the alumni followed suit by giving large amounts to their University.
We congratulate our friendly rival on their new project. We can’t promise, of course, that M. U., will win from us in their new arena-to-come, but we don’t mind if they never lose to anyone else.
A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
Members of the faculty are to be commended for their decision to hold students to a stricter accountability in the classroom, and to suspend those students who fail in their daily work. An action of this sort does more to eliminate students who are here only for the social life than does a hundred rules regulating the hours of the student body off the campus.
The small group of students responsible for much that is unwholesome in the University social life are also responsible to a large degree for poor attendance and poor recitations in the class-rooms. A stricter regulation of students in the class-room means a consequent improvement in the student body off the campus, as this new method may men that the freewheel will either leave school or change their viewpoint.
And this new rule works efficiently without calling into action a newroup or assembly to enforce it.
ACQUISITIVE JAPANESE
From a more than superficial examination of the Eastern question one is very apt to acquire a semi-gilt feeling on the attitude that Americans as a rule have taken toward this bone of contention between China and Japan. For such an examination is likely to lead to the discovery that there are two very definite sides to this question.
Japan acquired its hold on the Shantung peninsula in a round-about and on the whole, very high handed manner. There is no dodging that fact. That she should have done this, and the very methods of her doing it, convicts her of intentions avaricious and tainted with dishonor. But China was easy to dupe, almost to the point of indifference as to the control of this valuable and strategic point. The fact that China has since come to her senses and protested a ravage committed several years ago shows this to have been true.
Then again, one comes to the age-old question of whether the end only not have justified the means. Shantung and the area about saw a development and management that it had never seen before immediately upon the descent of the Japanese. Modern wharves and shipping accommodations were introduced, out through the rural areas a system of education was installed for in excess of anything to be found in any other part of China. Shantung began to live.
The Japanese, says authorities who know and are unbiased, are in many respects like the Americans. They are enterprising, resourceful, ambitious and acquisitive. They are direct in their methods, even to the point of being uncerupitous, but they are so outstandingly efficient and successful, that it is hard to protest even their most inexcusable acts of territorial acquisition once their system of reorganization is under way.
Plain Tales from the Hill
At the dinner table they had been discussing the possibility of having a snipe hunt. One young lady expressed her desire to engage in one, and her friends asked her how many birds she expected to get.
DOES SHE SMOKE?
"Birds?" she gasped. "Why I thought snipe were cigarette and cigar stubs."
Sentinelian Professor: "Now, class,
I want you to know it hurt me more
than it does you to give such low
grades." And yet he could not under-
stand the class was so clearful
when he had pulled out so many flunk
ouzooks.
OVERJOYED!
"HOW COME?"
"What on earth are we coming to," gasped the worried-looking man. "I just heard a girl getting herself excused from a lab class to 'run down' and get my hair cut, please." And the professor jet her go, too."
"The person who wrote 'All Hope Abandon Ye Who Enter Here' on the door leading into the Kansan office was right, dead right," wailed a cub-lett who has been reporting for a month.
NO NEWS VALUE
"Most of us learn that after we have been here two weeks. You're slow!" growled the grouchy individual at the desk.
First Student: "What is a flapper?"
Second Student: "A girl who doesn't buckle her galoshes."
A new version of the Cinderella story is going the rounds. It is said that the fairy dropped one of his galashes under the seats at the baskle ball game recently, and was most highly esteemed. But it wasn't until recovered the lost art title, and to "like a fairy prince" hande it and to her with a graceful bow.
Student's Health Code
AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY—
Courtesy in Colds
The common cold is the great American plague. It is the most insidious and deadly foe of common health. It does not strike and slay and courageously take the responsibility for its evil deeds. The common cold is a snick and a coward and a terror of men, a bacteremia, pneumonia tonsillitis, adenoides, it says to its victim, "You are not sick, you just have a little cold," and the victim struggles on until his resistance is lowered, his natural immunity reduced and a hoard of germs from some more deadly disease swarm the body. This affects the body of his defense and overpower the body.
The common cold is very contagious. A person with a cold should isolate himself as consciently as if he had measles or smallpox. One never loses anything by taking care of a cold; more is accomplished in the long run by remaining in bed for one day and going back to work in fit condition, then is accommodated in several days of training acquired half efficient. Besides, one has had the satisfaction of playing fair and has not forcibly exposed all his neighbors and friends to this offensive and debilitating disease.
A new public health slogan might well be "I will keep cold to myself and will under no circumstances give it to anyone else."

Students of the University of Iowa are conducting a boycott on certain Iowa City dealers because of exorbitant prices. Since the boycott includes such places as moving picture houses and pool halls, it is prophesied that students will be found seeking strange new amusements.
Starting next September at the University of Minnesota, classes are to be scheduled during the noon hour. The action is being taken to allow a more efficient use of equipment.
The graduate college of the University of Iowa is offering 119 salaried appointments for the next school year, 1922 and 1923.

On Other Hills
The Y, W. C. A., of Northwestern University is holding its annual spring drive for contributions to the Isabella Thorburn college for women in Lucknow India, John D. Rocheke for every dollar that is pledged by Northwestern students during the campaign.
The University Pennsylvania will conduct a strenuous vote to determine the attitude of the undergraduates on the final examination question. Final examination were recently abolished in the Wharton School and steps are now being taken to have them eliminated throughout the university.
Nobraska Westleyman — At a recent faculty meeting a new plan for governing class absences was installed to take effect at the beginning of the semester. The new plan is provided for excuse to be turned in at the registrar's office and that excuse acted upon by a committee from the faculty. The new ruling does away with this machinery and the absences are handled by the teacher of each class. The plan was instituted to check up on students who intentionally cut classes.
The honor system has been applied to gym work at Depauny University. No call is called at classes. Students must turn in reports of their absences.
Plain Tale writers for the Phillips University student publication express themselves in verse. 'How I know a bite on your ear!'
"May I print a kiss on your hips?
I said.
And she nodded her sweet permission
so we went to press
And I rather guess
We printed a full edition.
"One edition is hardly enough."
She said with a charming pout
that we were on the tape.
The forms were placed,
And we got an extra out.
"The women's rite team of the University of Washington will meet the women's team of Northwestern about April 15, in the first intercollegiate match ever scheduled by the local squad. The match will consist of six fights off each college will be represented by ten women.
