TUESDAY, SEPT. 28, 1920
WHEAT AND BOOKS
The year 1920 will go on record as a prosperous year for the state of Kansas. They've been harvesting just juts and lots of wheat; and the corn crop
prosperous year for the state of Kansas. They've been harvesting just lots and lots of wheat, and the corn crop is immense. The weather as a rule has been excellent for agricultural activities in general, and as a result farm hands have money in their pockets and the farmers are paying off the mortgage on the old home place. There will be hay in the loft, corn in the crib, wheat in the bins and money in the bank. Very few people will go hungry of necessity in the Sunflower State this year. Yes, sir, Kansas has a pretty healthy pulse right now and business is fine, thank you.
All of which causes the Mount Oread frequent to stop and ponder. He walks on the wood planks serving as a sidewalk in front of the Administration Building, and observes that the big structure is not yet completed. Investigation shows that gaping, unfinished walls on the north side of the building irritate the vision. He wonders why this is so, and the answer is simple. The University hasn't enough money to finish the Administration Building.
Another student walks into Spooner Library and asks for a certain number of the Literary Digest. The Librarian, after a thorough search, reports that every number is present and accounted for except the one the student wants. Why? The same reason—the University hasn't enough money to look after the binding and preservation of periodicals as it should be done, and as a result large amounts of periodicals in Spooner Library remain unbound.
A third student notes in his copy of the Kanan that Professor So and So has resigned to accept a position in another institution at a higher salary. The student soon learns that Kansas professors are paid salaries that would make a plumber look askance at a doctor's degree in philosophy. The same old answer—the University doesn't receive sufficient money from the state to pay higher salaries to the members of the faculty.
Yes indeed, the great state of Kansa will celebrate prosperity this year. There will be hay in the loft, corn in the crib, wheat in the bins and money in the bank, and the university stutt wonders if it isn't going to stay there.
VIVA WASHBURN!
Would that K. U. had a booster such as Washburn has in Lon McCarthy county attorney of Lyon County! Mr. McCarty is gaining much local fame because he arrested the bare-legged girls in a "revu" appearing at Emporia.
In a Topeka interview, Mr. Me
Carty explained his reason for closing the show.
"Emporia is a college town," he said. "There're a lot of innocent farmer boys at the College of Emporia and the State Normal both. I went to the show, and while it didn't hurt me any, I decided it would be bad for those boys."
When asked if he did not fear his theatrical policy would drive the boys away from the Emporior schools, to the benefit of K. U., Washburn, and other institutions, Mr. McCarty, who incidentally, is a Washburn graduate, was frank to admit it might.
How's that for undying loyalty to alma mater? Genine school spirit, ch? Mr. McCarty realizes very well that the adolescent Emperor student who admires the charms of the Follies queens, now legally barred from his sight, will hesitate only a moment in picking his new school. For Lawrence cannot compete for an instant with the variety shows and the burlesques of Topela—and even K. U. movies are censored.
"Maybe as, maybe so," he is quoted.
"But Washburn is a good school, and I don't grudge them anything they've got."
Yes, the University has been scored against by Washburn. The loyal alumni of K. U. can do only one thing to counteract Lon McCary's coup'detat for his alma mater. That is to open a free and uncensored roof garden somewhere on the hill—and advertise it in the Emporia Gazette.
LOYAL TO K. U
The banks of Lawrence are one hundred per cent for the students of the University of Kansas, according to representatives of the banks.
One banker remarked, "The purpose of our bank is for public service. We are always glad to handle the students' accounts. Although we lose money on individual accounts in the manner of issuing of bank books and clearing of checks we do not lose in the long run.
"The students bring a great deal of money into town and by handing the accounts of the merchants we are amply repaid for any service we can give the students."
In college towns many banks charge each student a fee of one dollar for deposits and for caching checks if the students maintain a balance with them of less than fifty dollars. Officials of the banks of Lawrence state that they have not found it necessary to resort to such a measure.
Statistics from fifteen banks in college towns in regard to the subject of students' accounts show that the majority of banks lose in handling money for college students.
CINDERS' VERSUS CONCRETE
Some of the students, new to the University, voice their impatience and annoyance at the inconveniences that the obstructions caused by the paying activities on the campus cause them in going to and from cafes, but no complaints are forthcoming from those who have experienced a windy wring day on Mount Oread.
We recall the finely ground dust and dinders from the cinder driveway that we acquired on our hands, faces, shoes, and clothing, and in our eyes and ears as we burried from class to class. When the pavement now under course of construction is finished however, windy days will no longer cause us such grief. The Laws and Chemists will be able to see more than usual from their points of vantage
without interruption from the clouds of dust that always spoiled the views in a windy day.
So when you have to walk several yards out of your way, climb over a pile of rock or a miniature lumberyard, or wade through a mudhole, remember that in a few months care will pass you at the intersections without kicking cinders and pebbles in your face, or leaving a trail of dust for you to pass through. Our campus is one of the most beautiful in the country and the pavement, when completed, will more than for use iflash and the inconveniences it now causes, in modernizing and improving the grounds.
THE WORLD KNOWN CHEER
That is our cheer, the cheer which should make the blood tingle in every student's veins when it is killed. That is the cheer that has carried us the ugh victory and defeat. It is known the world over, for wherever
Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, K. U.
two or more K. U. students gather,
the Rock Chalk is there also, and
less whether that place be Kansas,
China or China.
Rock Chalk is short and snappy, since it only has six words that can he easily learned the first time they are ever heard. In spite of this, Friday at convocation there were many students from all classes who were looking aimlessly around during the hearing.
The clock ticks thirty minutes—and a man is killed through motor car accident.
Lets get the rock chalk spirit, and carry it with us to conversation, football games and everywhere. Then when the occasion presents itself, let us give a real Rock Chalk with all the vim we possess.
THE HARVEST
It ticks for another thirty minutes and another person is killed.
And so it goes, hour in and hour in
the twenty-four, day in and day out
of the twelve—every thirty min,
utes some one is killed in this country
the automobile accidents. The round
the world he receives fifteen thousand
deaths a year.
These were facts brought out at a recent meeting of the national safety council in Atlantic City. It is a bad record. With almost 10 million motor cars in use and the number growing, we can be sure that accidents will be fewer.
It behoves both the pedestrian and the driver of a motor car to take care, to be doubly careful. "Watch your step" is sound logic for walkers. "Be always on guard and your car should be on guard as well as chauffeurs. Each might figure that the other is a consumate fool—just as a safety factor.
SILK SHIRT GLORY PASSING
In the Chicago stockyards men are still wearing silk shirts that cost $16 and $18, and are still appealing for higher pay. On the whole it is an inspiring phenomenon. In spite of the poet, man wants a great deal here below, and keeps on wanting it as long as he lives. That is the tragedy of life and its inspiration. But of late one portion of his life has been a large measure satisfied. The workman has his silk shirt, the cook her sesalin coat, the shop girl her silk stockings. The shop girl is doubly fortunate. Whereas the workman perform云 clouds his glory beneath a coat and the cook displays the pride of her heart only
on Wednesdays and Sundays in winter, the luster of resplendent hose shines daily, aided and abetted by the prevailing fashion in skirts. For her, at least, this land, though vast and wild, was a place of Heart's Desire. The generation that witnessed her triumph has not altogether lived in vain.
Signs and portents multiply however, that the day of glory is passing. In New England and in the middle West—wherever there is much manufacture of dispensable articles—men are laid off and those that remain are being shifted to less remote areas. Where else is the art, as of late in Brooklyn, factory employees—themselves no doubt breastleavers with fine fainment—are turning up as strikebrokers. Even thus quickly the hard facts of existence, the innocable working of economic law, have overtaken them. The moth that falls beneath the flame is no more tragic. In all ordnance, where there is no best aim, even tonor of existence; where more is grasped as the result for the ninety and nine is disaster. New York Times.
Christian Children Gives

The annual reports of the church.Sunday school, missionary society and other organizations were given. The fi. financial and other programs for the year were outlined.

One fair student, a brunette, by the way, was seen demurely making her way to and from classes this morning, adorned most conspicuously by a huge and flamboyant "spit.curl." The most consistent part of the young lady's costume was the curl, which was defied gently to her forehead in the shape of a two-inch dot. "ar mark, like this 'B'."
