Address all communication to THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, K. U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kannan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kannan; to go further than merely printing the news by abandoning for them the need to study, to organize their orienties; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to those who have the best of its ability the students of the University. MONDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1921 The Main Street of Lawrence isn't materially different from the Sinclair Lewis "Gopher Prairie," except that Gopher Prairie doesn't have cobblestone pavements. Are you popular? TEN TESTS OF POPULARITY you popular? If not, why not? Everyone can be well spoken of and so regarded. The precious secret of popularity, sometimes sold by mail, is given herewith without charge or reservation. In whatever walk of life you may be, especially political, administrative or editorial, the ten tests of popularity will show you how: 3. Be courageous! By that is meant, fear no power which cannot resist you. You need not hesitate to attack remote, unpleasant causes with vigor. In fact, there are three classes of opposition which you are free to denounce: 1. Be diplomatic! By that is meant, be an obscurantist. Why speak your unpleasant conclusions openly and frankly? You are sure to displease someone. Why not be eavesdubed, substitute, vulpine, Tup? To be popular, you should conduct your life by strategy, by tactfulness, that is, by a high order of deception. 2. Be generous! By that is meant, be a "good follow." Flattery is an artful weapon. Do not be stingy with compliments and tokens. Remember, as Hobbes said, so-called generosity is many but long-circuit selfishness. Ostensibly, be generous, for actually that is the surest way to gain personal reward. 1. Abstract evil, but not specific evil 9. Remote evil, but not adjacent evil. 3. Unpopular evil, but not approved evil. 4. Be honest! By that is meant, follow the best policy. Of course, honesty is a relative thing. You should not feel constrained to yield to honesty in cases where dishonesty is expedient. But frankness, when it deals only with abstract, remote or unpopular doctrines, is sure to appeal to persons, and thus make you publicly esteemed. 5. Be intelligent! By that is meant, be worldly wise. Study human instincts, emotions, desires, and appeals. Any good book of salesmanship will show you how to attract attention, arouse interest, carry conviction, and command responses: You can delight your fellow men with intellectual quips and quirks. Indeed, such intelligence is sure to give you favorable reputation. 6. Be enthusiastic! By that is meant, be hearty and hate, a good-fellow-well-met type, a "booster" of rare warmth. In speaking to others, simulate great anatomy, vigor, and interest. You will learn in your salutations book that enthusiasm is contagious—and popular. 7. Be patriotic! By that is meant, confess to everyone that you are the original, dyed-in-the-wool, 142 per cent, unphytoned American. Do not deceive yourself into believing that patriotism is not ostentious; remember that, popularly viewed, the greater the display, the greater the patriotism. He who draps himself in Old Glory is sure to be more popular than he who quietly goes about to make his country a better place in which to live. 8. Be voluble! By that is meant, be able to talk lax-queously. Nothing, perhaps, will give you greater popularity than the ability to express yourself smoothly and pleasantly. A well-selected vocabulary and a flowing voice have safely piloted many a person through the diplomatic channel of Scylla and Charydis. A study of verbal hypnosis will show you the transcendent value of an evasive vocabulary. Learn to conceal thought in a deluge of words—it's a great aid zooplayarity. B. Be sympathetic! By that is meant, be hospitable to publicly awarded charities. Do not construe this to mean compassion for the under-dog. You must be philosophical! When men are imprisoned for political non-compliance, remember that Time will heal their wounds. View all such injustice in a purely philosophic light. Do not be so foolish as to openly protest or you'll puncture your bubble of popularity. 10. Be purposeful! By that is meant, be a good pub- agency agent. Let it be known that you are idealistic (but practical). Of course, we are assuming that your true goal is popularity, but you must conceal this fact like a death's head. By adroit conduct, you can prove that you are humble and unassuming. Remember always that so-called tact, generosity, courage, honesty, intelligence, enthusiasm, patriotism, volubility, and sympathy, when cleverly interpreted, are the highways to polarity. But should a person thus sacrifice his self-respect for public esteem? Let us reverently thank Providence for unpopular advancers of human welfare who have said, "Get the behind me Popularity; I will not prostitute my soul for public plandits!" SEALS FOF HEALTH The sale of the Red Cross Christmas seals will determine the future of the anti-tuberculosis work in Douglas County, according to the committee in charge of the campaign. This campaign has no connection with the recent Red Cross membership drive. The money derived from the sale of the seals goes to support free tuberculosis clinics such as were held here each month during 1921. The clinic discovers not only those cases of tuberculosis which are active, but also those which are beginning and can be checked, and those which have become quiescent but which, without proper attention, may reappear at any time. The money from the sale of the Christmas seals not only goes to aid those who have had the disease, but also to instruct them that they may prevent the possibility of infecting others. This alone should make us feel a sense of responsibility in the clinic fund, and a sense of duty toward ourselves and others. The Anti-Tuberculosis association has done variable work during the past year, and is waiting for our support to enable it to do this year.

The Florida Times-Union insists that the men who have graduated from a barber college have this all their college yell— "Cut his lip, Cut his law, Leave his face Have rays; now!" However, speaking of yells they say that the University of New York boasts this one. "Abe done vell Abe done vell Give him a good substantial yell Abe, Abe, Abe! " At Willamette University, a tap on the floor to notify the class-room students that cheating is on, a written honor tradition that will invigilate against dishonesty in examinations against note-book cheating and against "the open book" policy, and a publicity campaign to change the propagation of the honor traditions, were the recommendations of the Honor Society committee in the report to the associated student body recently. Mount Oread Slants at Other Hills The number of American students attending British University has increased, there now being 180 Americans at Oxford, 60 at London University, 37 at Cambridge and 21 at Edinburgh, with others at smaller universities. The home economics class at Oakland A.
