"THAT WALK IN FRONT OF AD"
Judging from student comment, one of the most provoking inconveniences on the campus, is "that walk in front of Ad." Scarcely more than a yard wide, it barely permits easy passing of persons proceeding single file with no greater incumbrances than a notebook and a text or two.
But when full-sized umbrellas necessitate by such a downpour as came just at class times Monday, are added to the notebooks, the width of a walk censes to be a joke. The number of classes in West Ad is large enough now to mean a constant stream of people going both ways during the ten-minute recess between classes Even when all fail into Indian flie, it is practically impossible for umbrellas to be held straight over head. Although the tilted shelters often mean water down somebody's neck, or crowding on the walk results in being forced off into pools of water and mud or into the winter's snow, students have heretofore been unusually good-natured and considerate of each other about it.
But the matter is not merely a question of personal convenience Tardiness to class and general disorder in the mechanical running of the class routine may often be honestly over-toed by crowder walks. There is no doubt but that the students, and the faculty as well, would really anticipate an improvement in "that walk in front of Ad."
FRESHMAN AND SENIOR
Have you noticed the difference in the attitude of the senior, and of the freshman as he stands in line waiting to get enrolled? The freshman wears a tired but hopeful expression as he shifts his weight from one foot to the other. The senior wears a bored-beyond-expression look as he nonchalantly runs his jaws through a strenuous exercise on a bit of flavored chicle.
The freshman looks up the long linehead, surprised that so many people come to the University. The senior looks ahead at the long line and mutters uncensored phrases under his breath.
When our child of the first year raches the door, he is so shy about giving his name that the doorkeeper wonders if he has lost his voice somewhere on the trip up. He repeats, and finally gets up enough momentum in the process to make him self understood. When he receives the word "Have no transcript for you" he turns away weak in the knees and wondering what to do next.
When the man coming in on the home stretch of his University career appears at the door without waiting to be questioned, he bellows his name out so loud that the people at the advisors' tables turn to see
no ushers himself so proudly. When his transcript cannot be found, he frowns contemptuously at the door man, and with some little remark about finding it himself sneaks around to some floor unguarded for the moment and goes on into the enrollment room, fixes up a good story, "gets by," and is down to Brick's shooting himself full of cokes in a very short time. While the little freshman, scouring the sophisticated and most learned student, takes his place in another line and waits his turn along with his fellow students. It is a little hard on him perhaps, but it keeps the records at the door and at the Dean's desk straight. And after all, which shows the real spirit, the
And after all, which shows the most real spirit—the kind that puts K. U. at the top?
LAWRENCE MAN OUTLINES
K U
"It has been left to the dainty co-ed to rise up and in one fell swoo knock the wind out of the high cost of living."
The manner in which the victory was won was related yesterday at Hotel Sherman before the National Fraternal Congress of America by Thomas Sweenee, president of the Peoples' State Bank of Lawrence, Kansas.
"In our town it used to cost the girls $15 a week for room rent alone," he said, "until the girls from the state university got together and got the business of Lawrence to help them.
"Men who are fathers of families financed a plan which has reduced the cost of living for the co-eds so that it now only costs each $25 a month. This includes the homes they live in, food, light, heat, and laundry expenses.
"And at the settlement at the end of last year it did not cost the business man a bent. The $25 a month from each girl paid for everything and the men got their money back." The manner in which the plan was worked, according to Mr. Sweeney, was that at the beginning of the school a number of business men gave their notes guaranteeing that the girls would "make good." Five houses were rented and furnished and the girls lived in them, purchased coal, groceries, and all other necessities in a cooperative manner." From the Chicago Tribune.
THE QUESTION OF PUNC- TUALITY
In the University, students are urged constantly to be in their places promptly when it comes time for classes to begin. Different motives inspire this request or demand on the part of the faculty. Some ask it because they do not want their students to miss any of the material they have to offer, others, merely because it is irritating to have people moving about after class begins. And yet these self-same instructors start out the year with an example exactly contrary in practice to their preaching.
More than one morning during registration and enrollment, the doors of the Gymnasium, which it was announced would open promptly at a certain hour, failed to open for an hour or more after that time. This meant at best, an hour of standing and waiting; for early arrivals it meant in many cases as long as two hours.

caring for several thousand people at the beginning of the year, so they do not complain at the late hour of opening. They merely ask that, in the future, the hour set for their appearance be put somewhere near the time when
it might be possible for the business of the day to begin.

The Irish Movement is Maze of Political, Religious, Labor and Economic Desire and Hope
By CLYDE A. BEALS,
(United Press Staff Correspondent,
(BULIN, By Mail). The Irisian movement is a complex mass of ambitions, desires and needs. The only persons who understand it to their hearts are the people who so vitally interested and have their eyes so glued to the goal that they can not see what is pushing them.
Many Englishmen and many Americans say the issue is religious, that in the south the Catholics combine against the Protestants, and that in Ulster the Protestants combine against the Catholics.
Some say the issue is clear—that it is a matter of driving out of the country the invading English.
Some say the issue is economic—that Ireland wishes to have more control over her trade than she has at present and more opportunities of developing her industries to support the population that she is capable of supporting.
Some, finally, will say that the movement is a labor one—that it is Ireland's participation in the socialistic and other movements that are taking place in different forms in their countries.
Some will say that the movement in nationalistic—that treain feels the surge of national consciousness and wants to be free to foster it.
Some say it is purely political—that Ireland abhors the humbling of having her laws made by a body in which she can have only a small representation.
Actually, it is no one of these, least of all religious. It is like a chameleon n a grandmother quilt.
Certainly, it has the aspect of driving out the invader. The English got their hold on Ireland just as they got their hold on Britain. They were asked to take a hand in a local dispute, and like the provisional camel, when
they got their nose in, they just squatted all over the lot. But that was one seven hundred years ago.
The movement has been religious, but outgrown it. Two members of the present cabinet and a fair sprinkling of members of the Dail Eireann are not Catholic. The constitution of Sin Fein says: "Membership shall be open to the Dail Eireann or its respective class, or creed, who accept the constitution of Sin Fein, save that no member of the British armed forces, nor pensioner
thereof, nor any person who has taken the oath of allegiance to the British government shall be eligible so long as he is not acting or position involving that oath.
Plain Tales from the Hill
The movement today is probably dominantly economic. But the era is industrial and economic and it seems likely that the Irish movement has taken on that aspect because of the era and does not arise from economic reasons. It does, however, "the Irish have shown by three biplex rebellions in every century how loathsome to them in the character which British statesmen would would them." So the movement cannot be said to be purely economic. Yet it has that aspect. One hears that Ireland needs lower tariffs than England collects because her workmen receive less pay than their working man. One hears that Irish foreign trade is undeveloped because England puts obstacles in the way of ships visiting the harbors. The movement has a very definite economic side.
"I just finished Einstein's 'Theory of Relativity,'" said the Senior. "Have you read it?"
The nationalist aspiration has probably been largely responsible for keeping the movement alive for so long. The Irish point out that their civilization is one of the oldest in the world. The surge of this national feeling is like a slow pulse, rising now and again, to win the freedom of ex-communists from the civilization unhampered by the imposed personality of another race.
The labor phase is *expressed in the Irish co-operative movement*. The co-operatives have made a deal, or will shortly, with the Daire Eiamnn by which in return for their support the Dail will use that in binding for pub purchases. In making they will have an opportunity equal to that of individual enterprise.
The hole with the oboe who caused the complaint from the Pi U house the other day has had his revenge. He has moved across the street, accumulated an onexaphone, violin and piano—and well, he's getting his revenge rightly.

To appraise each influence is practically impossible. In the aggregate they are powerful. Their power lies in the ability to make a difference in propositions for the whole movement.

They believe that Parliament considers chiefly English interests, and Doe's Valero has said: "An Irish right can be given a way to an English interest."

To New Students
There's nothing in the world quite so fascinating as the first few months of college life; romance on every hand; old traditions to absorb until you become one of them.
Not all of the traditions are centered on the campus; there is the best place to eat, the best place to dance, and the best place to get the things that college men wear.
When it comes to things to wear, this store is a tradition. You can depend on getting just the neckwear the fellows like; the shirts that are "just the thing" this season; the newest shape of collar or hat, and, best of all, the latest models in Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes
The models change from season to season, but the quality doesn't. You can always depend on Hart Schaffner & Marx to keep up quality, and on us to select just the models college men want.
There's just one more tradition about this store—it's the place where college men always feel at home.
Come in and see why.
