WEATHER FORECAST—
MORE SNOW
By next week several hundred students will have spent their allowance for September and will begin to let "snow" checks drift gently down upon the town.
It is the opinion of a banker in town that few students deliberately write bad checks in order to beat Lawrence merchants, but he thinks that these checks are written because the students have only a hazy idea of book-keeping and consequently do not know whether they have one or ten dollars in their account.
From an investigation of snow checks held by several Lawrence merchants it seems that nearly every bad check had been written on a counter check and that few were written on blanks to which stubs had been attached. It is natural that a student who keep no record of his checks should write an overdraft, now and then, but if this student could follow a bad check from the time that the merchant accepts it until this check is returned to the writer, marked "insufficient funds," he would probably be more careful in keeping an accurate record of his bank balance. A bad check drawn on a student's home-town bank goes through seven hands before this student is informed that his check is no good. In addition this check may be protested which adds an extra amount of work to handling.
It is not fair to the majority of students who are careful, for a few who are careless in drawing checks, to force Lawrence merchants to put up a sign, "no checks cached here."
Lawrence merchants are notoriously easy in cashing checks. Long-continued abuse of this courtesy compels them to be stricter and frequently refuse the accommodation when some student asks for it.
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fred of them that seek death — Prov. 21:6.
McCOOK'S ALL MUSSED UP
McCook's face is pret' near ruined. Old Pi doesn't recognize it any more. "Honey" has to scratch his head to make sure he's still alive when standing on its battered countenance. It's a safe bet that not that sly and wicked beast, the Tiger from Missou, would recognize the old tail-twisting ground if he saw it now. Isn't it awful?
To have the direction of your face turned cross wipe is a terrible ordeal, when you stop to think about it. It takes time to get the wrinkles going the other way, and to see that the tears don't run down your back instead of where they ought to. That's what old McCook Field is undergoing.
For a while it's going to seem strange to all of us. It'll probably take more than one football game and trustmech to accustom the old-timers
to the change. The boys of 86 and of the days of Tommy Johnson—how they'll miss the dirty old bleachers and the eastward-facing field! But they'll get used to it!
The newcomers will not have this adjustment to make, but will enjoy rom the start the great, green pasture with white-steped walls around it, which is to be the scene of our athletic battles during the years to come.
GRACEFUL LEADERSHIP
One of the strongest impressions brought back by the Legionaires recently returned from France, where they represented the national organization of the American Legion, is that of the simple courtesy and cordiality of Marshall Foch, great leader of the allied forces during the war. It is not so much to Foch the ingenious commander, as to Foch, the unafraid, kindly man and, gentleman, that the Legion is straining itself to do honor at the coming national convention in Kansas City, this fall.
And so it is in every field of activity. It is in the class presided over by an instructor who has made a success of his life, but still finds it possible to be "human," that the student does by far his best work. It is to the "hoes," who is quite as much a friend as an employer, that the workman pays his homage by perfected work. It is the unspoiled leader everywhere who wins his followers to an organized, co-operative effort that accomplishes the task to which they have set themselves, be it large or small.
Graceful bearing of the honors and responsibilities of leadership is an art natural to some, possible of acquisition o all. From a practical point of view t pays in results; from a sentimental point of view it wins friends and their commendation. Yet, isn't it surprising how many, wilfully ignoring these acts, not only expose themselves to he scorn and hatred of their colleagues, but court the failure of their undertakings?
"Is this where you go to enroll?" asked one freshman Tuesday of an other who was just coming out of the lower floor of the Gymnasium.
Plain Tales on the Hill
"No, you just register there, but you get 'rolled', was the reply of the second Fresh, who was ruefully tucking away a recently deleted wallet.
After keeping a count of the number of football fans who tore their trousers while climbing through the barbed wire fence around the new practice field last night, we couldn't help wondering if the associated tailors of Lawrence didn't have something to do with the location of the new field.
it is rumored that three freshmen understood the Engineer yell.
There are more gentlemen in the Engine and Law schools than we had suspected. We momentarily expected one of the two schools to break out during the Fine Arts chorus at concession this morning.
We don't like to be skeptical, but the silver carafe that brought ice water to the convoction speakers had even had seen better days—and contents.
