WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1921 Love at first sight usually ends with divorce at first slight. Why is it people wish to kick me? IF AN ABUSED DOG COULD TALK Here I am, hungry and cold, with my head bowed, my eyes sensitive and upturned, my tail whipped between my legs—all because I cannot trust mankind. I wonder if that man knows how hungry and weak I am? Last evening I was cured up just inside the doorway of West Ad when a man, whom I supposed to be the janitor, espied me. He threw his dust brush at me, but I managed to dodge. I was so frightened I could little but cower and tremble. He rushed at me, and i evaded him as best I could, but not before he had given me a severe kick on my side—just where the butcher hit me last week when I was searching for food at his back door. I ran down the hallway crying with pain, wild with fear. The man picked up his brush and hurled it again at me. He missed me, but that seemed only to anger him. What was I to do? Here I was, trapped in the hallway with the man yelling and cussing me. The man kept chasing me and throwing at me until his wooden brush hit one of my legs. When I cried with pain, he seemed to feel he had accomplished something, for he returned to the doorway and opened the door so he could chase me outside. I bounded for the door. He lurched at me, but I was too quick for him. I escaped and ran around the building trying to find a sheltered corner. I wonder if he realizes that I too have nerves that register nain? Today I ventured near the front steps of West Ad. watching students go in. One student whistled for me. I wagged my tail, flopping it on the ground to show my gratitude, but I was afraid to go near him—I've learned my lesson about men. I guess men don't know how much I'd like to be a respectable dog. It seems, now that I'm frostbitten, hungry, and frightened, I get more rebuffs than ever. Well, I must be going elsewhere before some of those intelligent college students tie a tinn can to my tail. A man doesn't have to be bald headed for his hair to be next to nothing. SO LONG. JAZZ! "Jazz music is 'crying,' say the critics. Even now the obtinary notice is being written and the jazz movement, which may be described as a musical fever, will pass away as abruptly as it came. Its origin has been traced back to African tom-toms and African dancing. It broke forth on the "civilized" world in the year 1911. Its appeal has been mostly to youths in adolescence who, naturally, abhor moderation and repose. Jazz, like other stimulants, has had its effect on people. Scientists are beginning to declare it demoralizing. More than that, they are seeking to prove their assertions by analysis. One scientist has gone so far as to say that if jazz continues one more year there will be no clean-minded high school girls or boys in the country. He also warms school authorities that if they do not do something to stop it, medical men of the country will be compelled to deal with the problem. Some writers, in fits of irony, have said that jazz humiliates gray hairs and has a fear of the noble and the beautiful. This it true, but jazz has been a source of inspiration to a class of people who never have had the opportunity to be educated to appreciate art. Perhaps, in their monotony of living and working they need something which, as the critics say, "is soon created, soon liked, and soon forgotten." Another charge the critics have made against jazz is that it has dominated modern literature. Perhaps, but on the other hand it has inspired many to try their hand at writing who otherwise might have remained inactive. But jazz is dying neorethertess. Composers and publishers are preparing for a musical decease. Musicians who have been dazzled by the dollar sign—a great golden jazz nebula—soon will beat their saxophones into plowshares, and their trombones into pruninghooks. If the loop-holes in our laws were stopped up, the standards for our lawyers would rise proportionally. Plain Tales from the Hill CAMPUS IMPRESSIONS A bedlam of noise.

JUST A MINUTE, PLEASE When one is hurrying across the board walk (on the way to West Ad—not at Atlantic City, Hortense) at exactly 1:29 and when one is especially anxious to gain one's seat before one's name is passed over in that useless thing commonly known as roll call, one is filled with a surge of anger to find the way blocked by four young things with arms affectionately linked and effectually barring passage. To venture a football tackle or step off in the and is the burning question—which after all, Hortense, can only be answered by the information that the four young things were not co-eds as you had supposed but regular rah-hah boys who have the habit of logging the sidewalk and who form too formable an array for one timid freshman to practice football tactics upon. We wonder if Professor Skilton has been deceiving us when he comes back from Chicago with the startling information that a certain girl violinist who has very close" while very young, "will bear watching " Students burrowing, belated to their 9:30 classes stopped a moment this morning as they near the Law Building. For they saw a girl attired in most peculiar habilitudes and seemingly occupied in spectral guard over that mass of riotious humanity which daily adorns the Law steps. Black feathers waved above the walls, streamers of crepe paper draped about her neck, and in her hand she swayed a lantern slowly to and fro. No, Hortense the girl was not an escaped inmate from the asylum at Topeka. She was a fraternity pledge, whose brave action of watching the Laws has made her a worthy of admittance to her clan—whatever it may be. A freshman who attended Convection Mondays was hard to ask a sister in the same social scale, after Years of Service. "Did he write all those pieces himself?"

"She's a Mean Job," recent song hit by George H. "Dump!" Bowles, A. B. '11, of Kansas City, Mo., was sold a few days ago to Jerome H. Remick & Co., of New York and Detroit. The song was written under the names of George Landis and Jimmie Selby. The number was first publisher by Eddie Kuhn, and Miss Rae Samuels vandeville saw, it took to New York. A representative of the Remick company heard her singing from Kansas City and immediately came to Kansas City to see Bowles. Here he met Katie Mohr with their signatures on the dotted line, "She's a Mean Job" becomes one of the feature songs on the list of Remick "hits." H. M. Fletcher, who was an assistant professor in the department of economics at K. U. last year, is enrolled as a graduate at Princeton this year. Mr. Fletcher also is assisting in the department of economics there. Merely Mental Lapses The Kansas state censor board's list of rejected movie films this week includes "The Love Egg" eliminating from reel one "Scene of girl sitting on store and in sink." This calls to mind the Great Bend girl, who during a bath in the kitchen, slipped and fell on the range, and as far as we know still carries the flaming motto "Majestic..."

You have saved nearly half of what you had in the bank at that time—Boston Transcript.
