Through all our time worn history and traditions has come this saying: a cat can look at a king. And neither of the two, the cat or the king haver tried to take advantage of the other by acting disrespectfully until here of late—in these days of flippers and cake eaters. But times have changed. Only last Monday evening at the Bowersock theatre during Miss Barrymore's production of "Declasse," there appeared what will probably be the finish of this time-worn saying. A young lady who was so fortunate as to have a box seat, sat, and powdered her nose throughout the performance. Not continuously of course, but at regular enough intervals to disconcert Miss Barrymore until she was forced to ask her manager to have the young lady discontinue her cosmetics. If such a performance annoyed Miss Barrymore there is little doubt that it would have driven a king into a fit of rage and he would have ordered the offender's head cut off. But kings are few and far between, but manners are still manners. THE JAYHAWK IS AT-TACKED The joke, so a Kansas Editor would infer, is on the University of Kansas. For years the students of this institution have gloried in the name of "Jayhawk," seure in the belief that they were adopting the name of some distinctive bird, while all the time, so this Kansas editor tells us, "Jayhawk" has been and is the name of a species of spider. "Ha, ha," says the Kansas editor. Politely, but at the same time quite audibly, "Ha, ha." Well, is the joke on the Kansas student? Granting that "Jayawkw" was once the name of a family of spiders, is it still that. Ask anyone in the country, Mr. Kansas Editor, what a Jayawkw is, and see if it doesn't become apparent that the joke is really on the蜘蛛. For he has lost his name. No, Mr. Editor, to us of the University "Jayhawk" apples to neither a bird nor a spider. It is the name for the spirit of Kannas, a name of which, be it the original property of archida or aves, we are very, very proud. BOOK THIEVES What is the difference between the marauding thief in the night and the individual who wilfully carries books on the reference shelves away from the library? This question might be more fittingly discussed in a class in ethics or a criminal court; but it is worthy of some consideration in the minds of students. "I have never known so many books to be stolen at this University as in the past student," was the statement made by a professor recently. The thief in the night takes only from the owner but the book stealing student deprives a whole group of its rights. Reference books are usually very valuable, and access to them cannot be had by the majority of students except in the libraries. When these books mysteriously disappear the group suffers. In some individual cases it may even mean a flunk. The book thief is to student society what the common thief is to society at large. The common thief may enter an establishment and steal merchandise; the university pest steals a reference book. In both cases wares necessary to the business have been taken. Both thieves are a menace to society and it would be highly desirable if they could be locked up indefinitely. On Other Hills Filt Gamma Delta has granted a chapter to the Beaver club, a local fraternity at Oregon Agricultural College, according to a telegram from L. P. Wilcox, instructor in horticulture and faculty member. Debates have been scheduled for Oregon Agricultural College in the spring with Pennsylvania State College, and Occidental College. The University has written a plan of action, but as yet plans have been made to meet them. University of California variety and freshman baseball opened last week at the annual sign-up rally. The 1922 team is predicted to be somewhat stronger than the last year's team in that it is composed of nearly all the veterans with several new men from the 1924 freshman team. The last opportunity of the term for men of the Oregon Agricultural College campus to descend in a body on the co-eds will be Sunday, February 6. Open house will thereafter be a thing extinct until the third term. This is the decision of the mails of Panhellenic at their last meeting. The teeth annual journalism week at the University of Washington promises to be the largest convention of newspaper men and women ever held in the state. At least five hundred are expected to attend. Fraternity and sorority houses will entertain the delegates during their stay. G. A. Roberts'07, has returned from Rhodeia, South Africa - 13,650 miles, to again register as a student at the Oregon Agricultural College. The University of California's rife club has accepted the challenge of the Oregon Agricultural College's team, to a rifle meet which will be held in Corvallis, Oregon. The teams will shoot on their own range, and the teams will be telegraphed to the other teams as soon as they are contled. Plans have been approved for the construction of a four-story, concrete educational building for the department of education at the University of California at Santa Barbara at an approximate cost of $500,000 and be known as Havland Hall. The daily Barometer was granted to Oregon Agricultural College at a meeting of the board of regents. It was thought advisable that the present system of two publications a week continue until next September when 50 cents will be added to the student incidental fee. A "Future Minnesota" convoitation, called by members of the student body and having only students as speakers, was held at the University of Minnesota for the purpose of acquiring students in general and especially new students with the work and aims of the University. Sir Philip Gibbs, famous English writer and war correspondent whose opinions on world events are eagerly waited by heats of followers addressed the University of Michigan on the subject, "What I Saw in Russia." Nicholas Vachel Lindsay read his noeas at an all-university convocation at the University of Washington, which he heralded his entertainment as a "delightful form of higher vaudeville." Two hundred pound Leo Calland, the infant center of the Trojan football machine, with a 60-90 degree gridron warriors of the University of Southern California. Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, has a novel plan for obtaining anpansha for the 1923 annual. The plan is to give a copy of the book free to the person handing in the most interesting collection of pictures. There are five rules with which the contestants have to comply. Jayhawk Jests "Let's be friends patonic." But he stooped when it came time to part.

The wind is blowing around about the campus, and the Laws are having their steps fixed. One professor announced to the members of the first class in a course that they should submit a story to a magazine within the next eight weeks. He called upon them to select the magazine. The list included the Atlantic, Harper's, Scriner's, Century, and Living Age. Nobody but a pessimist would be led to remark that it sounds as if they were planning to make a scrap book of little pink and blue rejection slips. A new system has been installed in the library to check up the history reserve books. It is anticipated that students will be much benefited but the type that floridened under the old system will have to go elsewhere to complete their book collections.
