THESE ORGANIZATIONS.
Independent employees told the Kansas Topeka Court that a working girl in the capital city can clothes herself decently and comfortably on $87.55. Fur coats must be coming down in price and the styles must be changing.
A closely welded body of senior women could handle many campus problems that are now perplexing the school authorities.
There is a new organization among us here on the Hill for the alleged closer welding of the senior women. The aims and purposes of this organization have been commented on already in these columns. The idea on the surface seems to be very good, and if it accomplishes its aims and lives up to its purpose no organization on the Hill will fill a more definite need.
But then there is the other side. The University has already in its student body about 150 organizations of all kinds. It is becoming a question whether organizations are here to serve K. U. or whether Mount Oucal for the purpose of fostering organizations. In glancing over the roster of these groups, one is tempted to say that the latter statement contains much truth.
This is not an attack on the new organization for senior women. It is rather a plan to them to justify its being and prevent its falling in to the roster of useless societies.
You may say that one more organization more or less will make little difference. Perhaps not, but it is certainly not a step away from the situation which has grown up on account of this multiplicity of organizations.
We can't see how that K. C. Star figures Mary Pickford lost money in her recent suit. She would have paid $108,000 out of court for a loss, but this way she paid out $200,000 and got at least $500,000 worth of advertising for being on the right side.
A PRETTY GOOD "HAUL"
The Lawrence police force is deserving of no little credit. The other night the Mayor, City Attorney, and officers of the law throw out a net that snagged five law breakers and closed a disorderly house. It is a credit to the city and to the city officials that those things will exist no longer. And it should be a warning to such others who were overlooked the other evening. It is likewise a comfort to the citizens and students to know that they are living in a community where such nuisances are not tolerated.
And there is another angle to it.
Not a single student of the University was in any way connected with the incident. With pretty much the whole world at large down on the "lawless college element", this fact should be comforting to the public.
Mount Oread is unique in that the wind can blow from all four directions, at once.
PORTO RICO
Things in Porto Rico are pretty bad if they are just half as bad as Felix Davila, said they were before the House of Representatives. Mr. Davila claims that the present governor, E.Mont Reily, is nothing but a common crook.
According to Mr. Davila, Rely himself said that he expected to make $200,000 during the next four years off the Porto Ricanna.
Who would blame the Porto Ricans for engaging in a huge revolt in order to rid themselves of such a man? Mr. Davilla brought out in his speech that Reilly was remembered from his position of assistant postmaster in Kansas City, and of course questioned the man's ability to govern a population of 1,300,000 people if he could not keep his former position.
No one can fail to see the terrible injustice which is being done the inhabitants of Porto Rico. A man has been put in charge of them who could not hold the smallest office in America. No wonder they are crying for his removal.
It it seems that a whole people should suffer on account of party politics; no one disliked to think of President Harding as having such amazing bad judgement as to appoint such a man. Let us hope that justice can come back to normal in Porto Rico.
We are of the opinion that E. Mont
Reilly could write a very impressive
book with some such title' as 'The
Unwelcome Guest.'
PHONOGRAPH ECLIPSED
What a change has taken place is the American home in the last twenty years. Some of us may remember when every home had a daughter who could pound out music on the piano and where in some families almost every member could coax music out of a French harp, a concertin., a violin or even a comb. Then came the biographer.
Now who would listen to sister mutechist Chopin or attempt to syncopeptize Silver Threads Among the Gold when for eighty-five cents the
family could buy a record which produced music so much better than any domestic efforts could possibly do. So the family entertainer has been forgotten.
Now comes the wireless concert. Who will listen to a Victrola with the troublesome labor of changing records when he can "listen in" to Grand Opera in Chicago, a jazz orchestra in Kansas City or a serious lecture from Denver?
It used to be that a famous singer could reach a few thousand people at a time, then came the phonograph and his range increased to reach many more thousand people. Now with the wireless he may reach hundreds or thousands at each recital- if his hearsers do not prefer a jazz selection.
Kansan Krackles
It is said that the Finnas take a spanking with each bath. Evidently the Finnas are strong for hot baths.
President Palincare is consistent says a Paris correspondent. Never tholos, French cabinets will still rise and fall, predict American politicians
K. U. women journalists sigh when they read that a former University woman is now a famous dancer, "Too late," they cry.
When the Chinese have a banquet,
do they serve rice? Oswald wants to
know an he is invited to one, and isn't
very fond of the white grain.
University laboratory tests show that soft-drink markers have even resorted to fraud in the use of colorings—and that is not all, says anti-Volst discipdes.
Head in the Kansas: Hungerfor to decide on Insect Classification. We wonder if he will find them seniors, juniors, sophomores, or freshmen?
Ambassador Harvey has performed one duty for his country, at least, while he is in England. He and his wife were the only Americans present at Princess Mary's wedding.
Student Opinion
I note in the Kansan that Carl Sandburg is going to give an entertainment in Fraser Hall Tuesday night.
I heard this man Sandburg last year in Des Moines, and he gave me a big surprise in the city's attention to see a newspaper cartoonist's idea of a poet—the *kimo*
Editor the Daily Kansan:
of barber's attention; or the kind that gazes at the stars and chains of the beautiful flowers—and after Sandburg had finished I completely re-
and heard in the army when there were no ladies present. I never knew they had decent verses before, but Sandburg sang them.
The Pied Piper of Hamelin had nothing on Sandburg. Sandburg went him one better. I settled myself to hear a lot of dry poetry, but Sandburg produced a guitar from up his sleeves and sang some songs that I
1 and every one else got all excited over the song of Frankie and Albert, for Albert was "a good man but he done her wrong."
In view of the fact that the University has had some punk talent since have been here, I think it is to be congratulated for securing a man like

Student's Health Code
A normal child who has had freedom to develop the muscles of his body according to his instinctive urge stands correctly. Faults of posture occur only when the muscle becomes stiff or artificial restraints of our so-called civilized life.
Did you ever stop to think what a remarkable feat is achieved when the year, old human quadruped raises his relatively enormous head and balances it on the stalk of his body which in turn rests upon the base of his very small feet? To carry his head at all he must maintain his center of gravity as carefully as a straight-backed "Mammy" while she totes home the basket of laundry upon her head.
Head up, Chest out, Chin in
Instead of balancing the head upon the body with nice and precision the student reverses the beautiful compensatory curve of the limbular muscles from this position, sits upon it, then hangs his head from the leverage of the cervical muscles and vertebrate thus pressing on the blood and nerve supplies to the brain. Often he sits this way for an entire study period or for an entire week; he rests his knees and his entire body sets a general indifference.
How many students ever remember to stretch their bodies or take a few minutes occasionally to compensate for the overlasting downward pull of their occupations? How many times a day do you look up at the sky and the trees, lift your chest, flatten your back in the face? The civilized world must maintain this downward pull if it is to keep its head up where it can sweep the horizion with its gaze, and command the heavens and the earth.
