WHEN THE DAY IS DONE
For some, the sunset tonight will be beautiful. Golden rays will extend upwards from the horizon, blending into hues of softness and beauty. For others, it will be a very stormy evening. Old Sol will settle down in the west with a frown on his face, giving eiffel rays of light irritating to the eyes.
It all depends on the election. After the final count this evening, political hopes will be shattered and cast to the four winds. Hopes will also be swelled by the more or less toxic gas of victory, only to burst and leave the politician in a state of quiescent, although exultant bliss.
During the last two days of the campaign, politics have waxed hot. At first, both sides were content with a little machine gun fire, but yesterday and today the opposing sides have opened up with their heavy artillery, exchanging shok for shot. On the flank, the eligibility committee made an attack or two, with resulting casualties. The battle reached its height shortly before noon today. The total losses of the two sides will not be known until an inventory of the battlefield is taken this evening.
But in the meantime, it is unreasonable to presume that the sun will set any differently than usual, regardless of who is elected?
STILL WAITING
After the meeting of the University Senate Tuesday, no announcement was made concerning any action on the question of exempting seniors with A and B standings from the finals. This is a question that has been current for several months, yet at the Tuesday meeting nothing, apparently, was done.
The sentiment in the senior class for final exemption took definite form recently at a meeting of the class. The Daily Kansan, not long ago, conducted a survey among the professors to ascertain their views on the subject, and many were found to favor it. With these facts in mind, the Senate should give the matter its immediate attention. Seniors desire to be exempted from the finals, and they do not want to wait until the last week of school to find out if they are going to be.
The next meeting of the Senate is awaited.
ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
After students are graduated they find it hard to keep in touch with their school. They leave with the intention of coming back often and keeping up on school affairs, but they soon find that other demands take their time and somehow the "old school" is neglected until they lose interest or find themselves doubtful as to the means of getting in touch again.
The Alumni Association is ready to stand as this connecting link between University and graduates, and to act as the organized representatives of all graduates. The association does
in a number of ways. The Graduate Magazine is an important factor which includes personal news about graduates. The Alumni Office endeavors to keep in touch with all graduates, has permanent records on file, and is the service office for graduates and former students. K. U. organizations throughout the country enable a graduate to meet old students and to renew old memories and associations.
But the Alumni Association is not entirely devoted to the graduates. The Association took an important part this year in bringing about the large appropriation the University obtained and are entering actively into the Million Dollar Memorial Drive.
Through these many functions the Alumni Association makes itself a vital part of college and after college life. It performs a service for the college and the graduates that no other organization could do. It means that graduation need not end all college relations.
Campus Opinion
THE PROM
Dear Editor:
There seems to be a general mis-understanding in regard to the Junior Prom again this year. The Kanans last week stated that Seniors this year who had gone to the Prom last year and bought their tickets, would be invited to attend this year and be given complimentary tickets. This was the distinct understanding I had as well. I believe as other Juniors last year, we were a ticketless my Junior year entitled me to attend the Prom in 'my senior year' without any further obligation on my mvt.
By a good deal of initiative on my part, I have finally found out that unless I take a Senior girl I am obliged to buy a half a ticket or some sort of such an arrangement. The Prom managers last year were exceedingly glad to have anyone attend so long as they had the five iron bows, and I can't see any of them being given the regard to whom one goes with—the financial obligation was supposed to be at an end after having bought the ticket last year. In closing I wish to say that the Junior Prom is the greatest social event of the entire school year, and it should by all means be made a howling success, not only for the outsiders who come or hear about it, but also for the Seniors this year who are going into the commercial world with other a feeling of love for their parents, for that reason and with a feeling of dissatisfaction and contempt for the manner in which their school activities were promoted and managed.
Very truly yours, A. Senior
CONCERNING THE JAPANESE Editor, University Daily Kansan:
To be sure, our fears of war with Japan are partly a product of our imagination fed on carefully trimmed news, supplied to us by persons interested in an Americo-Japanese conflict, or at least, in strained relations between the two countries. We, therefore, believe that a friendlier and wiser policy towards Japan is very urgent indeed. But, on the other hand, we have a valuable that any individual person in this or any country, outside of Japan, would justify the conquest by Japan of Chinese territory as did Mr. Moore, representative of the Associated Press, on the Open Forum, April 4th.
It is remarkable that Mr. Moore bases his conclusions on facts and arguments which would suggest the very contrary to anybody possessing any thinking cap at all. A conquest of Tibet or Mongolia by Japan, which "she needs so badly," he calls "perfectly legitimate" because China is in captivity herself; because China is degenerating, having lost nearly one-fourth of her population in the last two decades or so because the Chinaman is incapable or self-defense and will rather commit suicide than fight the man who would insult his wife. Note now the pure Niethes philosophy back of his arguments. This is easier to understand as the German giant justified his crushing of Belgium and other weak countries, and which we fought so bitterly.
Mr. Moore further denounces China as a land of mean intrigue, because of her complaining to the world of Japan's actions. Mean China, indeed, for if she were not her own way and never complain—some judgment. It does not doubt Japan's honesty and when asked about Japan's twenty-one demands imposed on China, he calmly replies, "Oh, no, I do not speak about those things, but I do think that it would be perfectly legitimate."
it seems to me that arguing for conquests by Janaan is either childish and silly, or criminal. As to what it means, I will assume the latter. I have not the heart. L. H. Tucker.
Thinking Japan perfectly honest, he nevertheless questions the honesty of the United States, which is getting to be the "menace of the world," a threat that has been portrayed in just because our big ship-building program compared with that of Japan. But, if Mr. Moore distrusts the U. S. whose international record is probably the cleanest in the world, he is wrong. The world does he expect us to trust Japan, the country whose record is one of taking, anexing and robing; the country which is the embodiment of the German militarism, ambitions, and policies of its military government; and above all, the typically Japanese amnesia?
Spring Poetry
My Geneva's hair is golden blond,
Blue eyes like hers. I am most fond!
My Pauline's brow enthrones the
Grace.
Her radiant beauty stains all faces;
On Hazel's cheek grow rose and cher-
Her ruby lips a sweeter berry.
Jean's snowy hand but touched does melt
And then no heavenler warmth is felt:
My Jackie's voice entrails all spheres
Her taunting laughter charms my
And I find myself a-gong
Off to class with little knowing,
and relief comes o'er me flowing
For Billy's love I'd gadly die.
Or Mamie, June and Lorele!
I love them all but can't decide
Which one to ask to be my bride.
Someday perhaps ere life is done
I'll find them in all only one!
Oh, the hills are a-greening,
And the full Kaw is a- gleaming,
And the velvet spider's dreaming
In the war one is a heavy spry.
And the dent-de-lion's springing,
And the crow is lazy winging,
And the red thorn bush is flinging
When the whistle blows at noon,
There's a tiredness 'o me creeping
I could spend my days in sleeping,
If no longer school were keeping—

Oh, I wish that it were June!

There's a professor on this hill
Who always seemed to me
The kind of man in elder years
That I would like to be;
So puzzling whether I should vote
The ticket white or red
I went to this old gentleman
And this is what he said.

My boy, I've been upon this hill For over twenty years.
The Arts Undergraduate Society at McGill University have started a campaign to raise money for a Memorial Tablet to be erected in the Arts Building. The tablet will mean their goal an average of one dollar for every man in art.
The R. O. T. C. unit at the University of Cincinnati will hold their big annual military ball April 8. The men's gymnasium will be decked with flags and streamers in true military style.
I've heard the victoria crow with glee
I dried the victim's tears;
Again, I don't know. Both tickets closely scan,
Forget the so-called issues then
The co-operative bookstore at the University of Cincinnati is controlled entirely by the co-operative system of management. The managers are co-operative students who alternate by having charge for a month at a time. These managers are appointed by the Student Board of Trustees and the faculty of the College of Commerce.
