The Daily Kangan ams to plead for the University of Kansas, to go furious at the university of Kansas, to go furious at standing for the ideals the university is trying to promote in its writings; to be clean, to be cheerful, to have more serious prosecutions, to have more serious prosecutions, to have more serious prosecution, to serve to the best of its ability the wishes of the students.

THE Y. M. AND Y. W FINANCIAL DRIVES.
Probably no two bodies or organizations on the hill have done more for the students and for the University than have the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. they endeavor to put K. U. first always, they keep a list of authorized roaming and boarding houses, direct students to those houses which are not yet filled, they meet new students at the train and help them to get settled, they run an employment bureau for assisting students to find work, they hold several Bible classes during the week, they co-operate with the churches of Lawrence in getting the students to attend church regularly—in short they do everything in their power to assist the men and women at the University and to promote a Christian fellowship among them.
A new method for conducting the financial drives of the Y, M, C, A, and the Y, W, C, A, is being initiated this year. Instead of conducting separate campaigns by the personal visitation system, as used hereforo, the two organizations are combining their efforts into one big canvass of student body, at a general mass meeting or convocation, scheduled for next Wednesday morning.
The cooperation of every student is merited by the captains and their workers, both men and women, for the task is huge enough at best. By the new method the vexatious problem of appointment between works and subscribers will be solved except in instances where students were unable to attend the convocation.
Every effort is being made to give full publicity to the campaign before the convocation in order that every student may have plenty of time to determine what he can pledge and be ready to subscribe quickly when the time comes. The Memorial drive of last fall certainly afforded proof that the conviction drive system can be one of opportunity, and not force, which many skeptics before had doubted. Such a drive is that planned by the Y. M. and the Y. W. No one will be embarrassed into subcribing if he feels he has not the funds to spare.
So let's all enter into the spirit of the thing, and be ready to do the best we can when the opportunity comes Wednesday!
DATE RULES FOR MEN
"Why don't men have a set of rules and regulations to abide by the same as we do?" question the co-eds on Mt. Oread.
True—if the girls are restricted as to the matter of dates the men are also. But the temptation is still there. What are rules made for if not to be broken? And when they are, the blanks always falls on the girl. For the first offense she's merely called
down, the second time she's cautioned not to let it happen again, and after the third warning she's called on the carpet before the W. S. G. A. where suspension or some other like punishment results.
And during all these unpleasant occurrences what is happening to the man?- Absolutely nothing. Shouldn't he be made to take his share of the punishment? The girl wouldn't have had the date he had not asked for it. Would there be so much breaking of date rules if University men were hold just as responsible and just as subject to punishment as the women are?
As the adage goes, "What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander."
KU KLUX KLAN IN BAD
"Ku Klux Klan will not admit Collegians," is headed a news story in yesterday's publications. The regents of the University of Nebraska, it seems, recently issued a decree that students who were proved to be connected with the Klan would be expelled from the University. A few days later the University authorities received a communication from an alleged official of the Klan, announcing that collegians would be denied admittance to that organization. The Klan was preserving its honor.
For the past three months the whole nation has been shocked by the activities of the newly organized Ku Klux Klan. This is the second time in the history of the nation that this organization, born in old Scotland, has been revived. The first time it sprang up in the South, immediately following the Civil War, and there is in the records of its activities during that period nothing that is generally considered as derogatory. But in the recent rebirth, wherein the activities have been centered principally in Texas, but have spread all over the Middle West, the chivalrous name that had been attached to the organization has been badly amirched. Yesterday's papers brought the news that the government investigation of the Klan that has been under way for the past month is nearing a crises. Evidence gathered by the federal secret service department has been placed in the hands of President Harding, and some sort of action may be expected within a few days. How many of the attacks upon innocent men and women, both white and colored, will be proved to be the action of the Klan proper, is still a matter of conjecture, and they who have revered the organization for its reputation of the 60's hope that they will be few. Be that as it may, the Ku Klux Klan is certainly in bad mode.
And now it is announced that collegians will not be admitted to its ranks! Is it because the actions and policies of the present Klan will not admit of the consideration of the country's highest class of manhood? Is it feared that the advent of the thinker into the Klan will mark the demise of lawlessness or the death of the organization? It is our hope and our opinion that the Ku Klux Klan has not and will not be flooded with applications for membership from college men, until it has been cleared or cleansed of the recent activities laid at its door.
THE DRAMATIC ART STUDENT
There are students who study only. There are students who study and play. There are students who study and work, but with some financial recompense. But the student with seemingly little compensation is the one who goes to his classes all morning, races to the library, and committee meetings all afternoon, and in the evening just when he could settle himself down to peaceful study, must slack down his hair, and with a weary smile trudge back up the hill to practice dramatics for a couple of hours.
After that he trudges back down the hill—to go to bed? No—not yet. He must drag forth his stacks of thumbmarked books, and translate a half dozen pages of French, write a short story, learn all about Shakespeare and his play Hamlet, write a feature story on some phase of this easy college life—and do other sundry tasks.

Plain Tales from the Hill
The Topkea Capital reports a general exodus of "bumts" to the South Huh! Just wait until the Oklahoma game next month.
Who would ever expect such worldly wisdom from a freshman?
Professor Mann to a freshman Sociology class: "Would you consider Man an animal?"
Freshman Girl: "Well—er,—sometimes."
We finally found a use for those wied drinking fountains that the Hill is afflicted with. A weary sophomore stormed blindly up the Hill, his senses still heavy from late sleeping. He stumbled into Fraer Hall like one who had nived of a dog. Then came the transformation. Groping about, the sleepy student found a drinking fountain. Down went his head, there was a minute's splashing, a swipe of the handkerchief, and the S. S. straightened up and headed for his class room with brightened eye and sprightly step. The new fangled drinking fountain had established its right to exist.
"Hospital to Hold Open House," is the head a cub copy reader wanted to put on a story announcing the opening of the entire University Hospital, for fourth It sounds too much like extentionism. It invites to the diphtheria epidemic.
Several fraternities staged party parties to the county fair last night Made quite a "Hawaiian Night" of it you might say
If you don't get this, go out tonight and look for the Hawaiian nights.
We don't want to be accused of adverting in this colum. Really, the Hawaiian Nights don't need advertising.
On Other Hills
If "Potsy" Clark has any spare class, he might handle a few classes in the English department.
The Sooners call the first day of school New Year's Day, and quite conventionally, they have adopted some New Year's resolutions. In the list of these resolutions may be found the following: "I will keep up the Sooner tradition of saying a cheery 'Hello' to every student I meet. I will always keep in mind the thing I am here for, the thing my purpose is, and the thing I will build my future on—an education. I will put that first. I will have my good times, my dances, dates and games; but they shall rank second."
According to the Oklahoma Daily, students who are enrolled in the university are not allowed to maintain a car. This action was decreed by the board of registers of that institution. The ruling does not because it does not allow students to bring cars there for rush week. Then penalty for overstepping this rule is provided for by a clause which says, "Any person who has maintained a pleasure car during the early part of the school year will be fined $100 and later will be fined year." The rule is for future years, as well as this year.

He was engaged to the daughter of a literary man. He was bold as a wooer, but the veriest coward when it came to approaching the fair one's father. So he waited outside the great man's study while the "fayre ladye" did the tackling. Five minutes she was out again and on her dress was pinned a slip of paper bearing the words:
Force of Habit.
A French magazine claims to have discovered in a New York paper an advertisement to this effect: "A gentleman who has lost his right leg is destroys of making the act of losing his left leg, in order to become associated with him in the purchase of boots and shoes, size 8." The very observant French editor very politely comments: "An American may occasionally lose his head; it loses his head." The Ave Maria.

A Worth-while Job.—A pessimist and an optimist were discussing life from their different view-points. "I really believe," said the former, "that I could make a better world myself."
