THE BIGGER DRIVE
The Stadium-Union Drive is not over, as every student knows. The biggest part of the drive is yet to come. Only one third of the million dollars has been raised. And now the bigger drive is starting. The Kansas City campaign is on, and will be watched with intense interest by the students and faculty of the University.
But the students need not stand idle and watch on. The drive which is just starting is the hardest part of the whole campaign. Former students who are to be asked to contribute, have been separated from the University and have lost much of the old time spirit. The students on the Hill can be of invaluable assistance in this bigger drive by helping to educate the former students to the imperative need of the stadium and union, and by convincing them that loyalty to their Alma Mater demands that every former Jawahar do his part.
This invaluable assistance can be accomplished by students writing to their friends who are former Jayhawkers, by soworites and fraternities taking up the matter with their former members, and by all students looking up former Kanans when they are in Kansas City. Tell them how the present body put the drive across, how Lawrence went over the top, and how all the people back at the old Hill are watching and waiting for the former Jayhawkers to do their part.
The big test is yet to come, and the present student body must play its part, and play it well, if the stadium and union building are to be a reality at K. U. within the next two years. Let's help put the alumnus across, too.
Athletics, campaigns, social events, and enrollment provide fertile grounds for controversy and content between the schools of every state, and Kansas in no exception in this respect. And this spirit of rivalry has resulted in many a bloody battle between ancient enemies.
SCHOOL COOPERATION
This hereditary antagonism received a decided blow with the recent action of the Association of Kansas Colleges, as set forth in a petition to the Kansas Legislature. Through this petition, all the denominational institutions of the state join in support of the budgets asked by the tax supported institutions, and in asking the Legislature to grant such appropriations. The association has also indorsed the movement for girl's dormitories at the state institutions.
Thus is shown the spirit of cooperation which should exist between educational institutions. It is an evidence of the newer and bigger aspect which the new era in education will bring about. It is a highly desirable out come. For, as the petition from the Kannas Colleges states, there are
many more men and women who are seeking higher education than ever before, and this spirit of cooperation must exist if these men and women are to be cared for in an educational way.
THE SCHOOL OF RELIGION
The action of the Kansas school shows a great evidence of this new spirit in education. For, in taking such action, the smaller schools realize that it would be impossible for such schools to accommodate greatly increased enrollments, and the men and women who are seeking higher education must be accommodated. The state institutions are logically the schools to handle this increase, and it is only through adequate appropriations that such can be accomplished.
The establishment of a School o. Religion at the University is significant of what will be done at all of the large schools, sooner or later. In fact, such a school has already been at the University of Missouri and several other larger institutions. In considering such action, it is evident that modern secular education is becoming more efficient and in its study of the student's mind has found religious instincts and promptings that cause it to aid the church in handling its religious education as effectively as the school handles secular education.
At present there seem to be only two ways of rendering the desired aid to the church in an educational way. One is through the Sunday school and young people' organizations and the other is through some co-operative plan of week-day secular instruction. Teachers and grading systems adapted to advanced work in religious study are almost totally lacking except in a few theological schools of note throughout the country. To offset the handicap only recently have
this class of religious education been established. One of the hopeful signs of the times is the establishment of student pastors at our state universities here in the middle west as quickly as anywhere. In addition to the churches the two Y. Associations are having a large part in paving the way through informal religious education for the formal and natural training which may be expected to follow. The opinion of the directors of the Bible classes on the campus deserves some consideration for it is becoming commonly heard that if the united efforts of the coming All- university religious campaign of the council of workers is successful the School of Religion is sure to be established.
"MINCE PIE'
In his latest book, "Mince Pie",
Christopher Morley has given to the
world the sparkle that is in life. And
that is just what we need in these
days of troubled pessimism.
"Mince Fie" is a collection of clean, lively verses that add a purl silver lining to every cloud and stir the depths of mirth. Pungent and sur-charged with fla霉素 humor, these essays delve into life. In a happy manner, they need us to feel that after all we are very much alike and that our days are
filed with many hours of happiness.
nor reaction it seems that many of us have forgotten that fact.
In his instructions on the opening page of "Mince Pince" the author says: "This book is intended to be read in bed. Please do not attempt to read it anywhere else. In order to obtain the best results for all concerned, do not borrow a borrowed copy, but buy one. If the bed is a double bed, buy two." But the lover of clean, humorous prose will find the book interesting reading, even if he is sitting down or standing up. And from the first essay on "Filling an Ink Well" to the "Thoughts on Setting an Alarm Clock," he will find the pages full of optimistic happiness.
"Home Economics Day," with special carnival features and program was celebrated at Iowa State College last Friday.
Campus Opinions
Permit me to congratulate "Pinkish Red," who in yesterday's Kansas, broke away from the tyranny of this confining institution and planted the banner of initiative in the firm soil of unhammered conduct.
Editor. Daily Kansan:
Mr. "Pikinki Red" evidences maturity and keen power of analysis. Says Pikinki: "I do not think that children should be safe; we safety guardians for young people."
Pinkish is also more sensitive, it would appear, for he remarks in a delicate vein that the new dance regulations are "worse than an insult."
But we must not be too harsh with Pinkish. He shows his wholesome and orderly state of reasoning when he mays "...dances would have been forged by the students before Easen had been abused in disobedience a thing to be desired."
Desired by whom. Mr. Pinkish? Surely not by you, who, presumably, would not inhibit anyone's initiative. And then you add, somewhat unaware of the potential contribution to develop my ability to think for myself." Luckily, you cannot do that for anyone else. But wouldn't a little social concern prove salutary in
I agree with you that the faculty are not safe guardians in the conduct of us students—they are so hazardous, in fact, that I'm willing to abide by the verdict of the refined and cultured public dance hall proprietors of
Kansas City, St. Louis, and Chicago. These proprietors say to dancers who would indulge in the new forbidden dresses of Krauss, their annual dances of Krauss, their annual dances
So, Mr. Pinkish, it would seem that you have too much "initiative" for even the loosely-conducted dance halls of the metropolis!
Perhaps, as you say, your "time has been wasted." A True Blue.
Editor. Daily Kansan:
WE ARE IN *campus* opinion signed "Pinkish Red" reminds one of the "personal liberty" and "square deal" stuff of the good "ole" booze-fighters. Both booze-fighters and the wobbies told us that the instituting of laws was a challenge for the more complete violations of the principles involved, even though we made the laws ourselves.
Apparently there is a small number of students of the University who would like to tell the majority of the students, the majority of the faculty, and the people of the state how University" or - rather, let it drift.
Pinkish Red said something about lack of opportunity for initiative. If he was present at the last convocation he had plenty of chances for induction, but when you who opposed the stand taken did not want to use that opportunity for initiative. As far as I was able to see practically everybody stood up. A man with a headband whose their convictions seem to have been too weak for a negative vote.
I cannot see why rules voted by every governing body of the institution and sustained by a standing vote of practically all students should be an insult upon themselves. It has been generally understood that restrictions are made as a standard measure to prevent insulting violators. It does not seem possible that it could be otherwise with a self-overcoming group.
On Other Hills
One thing that K. U. has lacked in the past is continuity and unity of action. Since I have been here there has never been as great an opportunity for the student body to express themselves as is presented this year. There has also never been a time when the people of the state have seemed so well pleased with the unified purpose of the students and faculty of the University. It remains to be seen whether students and regulate student action or let a strangling few shatter that cooperation.
Columbia University was represented by a team in a recent fencing tournament held in New York City. They defeated the West Point Officer team in a match. Swordmen from the University of Pennsylvania met Columbia's team in a match last Friday.
A Senior.
Extravagance in University dances and other social functions at the University of California in under fire. Flowers are now barred at all campus dances; by universal ruling, and a general movement of reform to cut down the expenses of social affairs is in progress.
An old fashioned valentine party was held last Friday by the members of the senior class at the University of Chicago.
Statistics compiled at the University of Texas show that only twenty-seven per cent of the students at that university are members of Greek letter societies.

PROVIDGES OF THE 1930S
Long before the war it was stated that they would be killed at 40. But now it looks likely that soon the cry will be "too old at 15!"
PRODIGIES OF THE PAST
A small boy of eight summers recently tackled twenty or thirty of the best chess players in the world, setting them all problems they could not tackle; another child appears on the scene, who at the age of seven or eight, pens a diary, which the greatest literary lights describe as wonderful; while we'll soon have quite a small library of juvenile novels. It was recorded as a phenomenon when the children moaned at 12, when Mozart composed in his fifth year a concert, so difficult that only the most practiced artists could play it, when the infant son of Evelyn the driar, conducted read Latin and Greek at 31$, when MacCaull had written a poem as to "The Lady of the Lake" at 8, and when Millaris carried off a gold medal for

Perhaps the latest development in the toddling and shuffling was evidenced at a Varsity dance given at the Iowa State University last week, when the wireless telegraph became a compitor of the "jazz" orchestra and the students toddled to music transiently on the stage. Music was played on a phonograph in Rock Island, Illinois, and was made audible to the Iowa City dancers by a large horn provided for the purpose of receiving musical selections.
