A BIG DREAM REALIZED
At last we have a University Commons. For the last ten years much effort has been expended in getting sentiment created and action taken to secure such a building. Finally at the last session of the legislature part of the University appropriation was given to the building of a University Commons, and today we see the results in a building just west of Snow Hall.
In building a cafeteria the University had two distinct purposes. One was to provide good food as inexpensively as possible for students and faculty; the other was to provide a centrally located place on the campus where the whole University could meet in a social way.
Only enough profit will be made on the food to pay the running expenses and eventually pay for the equipment. All the help employed is from the student body. In short the University Commons is an institution built by the University for the students of K. U. In all the arrangements the needs and wishes of the school have been the paramount considerations. In return for these considerations the students owe their heartiest cooperation to the project. Hold your noon-day committee meetings there. Bring your visiting friends there for dinner. This is to be the place that mirrors the University spirit. Why not help to put it over the top?
CLASS ELECTIONS
Luminous and variegated posters have appeared on the campus this morning and, as the days go on toward the approaching class elections, doubtless more of them will come out. They do not constitute an uncommon sight on Mount Oread. In fact they have become so usual in the affairs of the University that too many students are prone to pay little heed to them.
The elections to be held this week give the student body one of the two chances of the year to express itself. This, in itself, does not mean much. Most women, and many men on the Hill, say that they can not find the issues on which the two political factions' opposition are based. At the beat, the two political "inside rings" are cloaked in a goodly fog of mystery to most students.
It should not be so. The student body should either pry into the affairs of its politics or make some provision for the governing element that it can understand. Numerous platforms will appear in the next few days, some of them sincere and worthy, others mere propaganda. It is the duty of each individual voter to ascertain to the best of his ability the veracity of the candidates put forward for office and then vote accordingly. Above all every man and woman, senior, junior, sophomore, and freshman should take this opportunity to participate in
choosing his representatives for class offices.
Politics in the University are a game, athletics are a game, all activities are a context. The greater the participation in activities the greater in proportion the mass of school spirit in unified projects. Get enthused, work, vote, and then when the concerted action of the whole student body is needed to put over a big move for Kansas, it will be comparatively easy to secure it.
THE PROFITEER
It is said that Budapest, Hungary,
has found a cure for profitering.
When a man is convicted of such, he
strapped on a specially constructed
board, and given a good old-fashioned
tanning in public.
Some such a system might be installed to cure the student who continually uses his friends for his own selfish advancement regardless of the cost to them. He doesn't do any financial profiling perhaps, but he continually uses other means which are quite as detrimental to the student. This student is as much of a detriment to the student world as the big profiler is to the world at large
This school nuisance, under the guise of friendship, borrows books which he never expects to return from fellow students. He stays away from classes and borrows some one else's notes which mysteriously disappear before he can return them. He borrows crasers, pencils, pens, or anything else that he happens to be in need of at the time, and absent-mindly puts them into his own pocket when he has finished with them. Of course he doesn't take them on purpose, but his efficiency in thoughtlessness accomplishes the task for 'im.
No matter how rushed his friend is, he never hesitates to take up as much of his time as he himself needs to accomplish some petty task that he should have already done, or perhaps to talk nonsensically about matters that do not in the least interest his friend, and because the friend is too polite to say anything to the contrary, the nuisance believes that he is being very entertaining.
Friendship should not be so imposed upon. Shall we install a patented spaker in some prominent place on the campus for this type of pest?
Plain Tales from the Hill
Doctor Mabin read a selection,
Are You the guy? "G7" Friday, in her newspaper 1. class. The following questions are from the book: Are you the guy that annoys the son in front of you by kicking it in chair during an entire lecture?
We are wondering if that eminent Mr. Voliva, who resides in the distinguished town of Zion, Illinois, and who has offered a reward of $1,800 to the professor or the layman in the sphere or that it moves, has ever heard of a guy whose name was Columbus.
We would like to see the person who could enjoy the beautiful valley on the south of the new University omnies when he bad that enticing aroma of a fruit that describable aromas of cooking food lating on the gentle breezes.

After having read an article entitled "Why are no Many College Students Old Maids?" we believe that there will not be a great number of students in the free flikes to be made by Rev. Inzer at the Legion Convention.
The length of some of the students' faces may be explained by the world's series but there is one sure thing, all of us didn't lose.
Miss Blitz' secretary insists that it takes at least three chaperons to "overlook" everything at a downtown party. We didn't know before that they were there for that purpose, but let it be so.
Professor Sterling says the way to learn Greek is to have your mind empty, your exercise aloud and let it echo. Another language instructor states that many university students may mimit the first step.
