Entered as second-class mail matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the set of March 3, 1879.

Address all communications to THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas. Phones, Bell K. U. 35 and 66. The Daily Kanan sume to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Hawaii; to go there than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the University holds; to play no further role; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to solve; and to best of its ability the students of the University. THAT PHONE SERVICE THURSDAY, MAY 20, 1920. You have not had any trouble getting central likely have you? Surely not. The telephone service of Lawrence is so efficient that it is common talk that it is a real joy to have the opportunity to call one over the phone. The very second that you pick up the receiver central responds and before you know it you have your party on the other end of the line. This fine service is especially comforting when you have a long list of names to call to tell them about the "committee meeting this afternoon at 4 clock," or rehearsal for this or that. We all have a dozen final papers to hand in and readings by the hundred pages to finish before final exams, but it takes such a little time to call a dozen or more people, that everyone is clamoring to make your phone calls for you. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The secret of this excellent telephone service is that the telephone company has a large enough corps of operators to handle the calls of a city twice the size of Lawrence. They are also paid good living wages; in fact, the wages are so high they are competing with those of the clerks of the five and ten cent stores which fact makes all the college people clamor to get one of these fine positions, if only for part time. It is said that a certain college professor is going to take a position with the telephone company next winter in preference to resuming his place with the University $a_{s}$ the pay is almost double. Surely, if the company does not cut down the wages of its help, and lessen the efficiency of its service, something will have to be done by the citizens of Lawrence, all else the desirable wage-carriers of the city will quit their jobs to take places with the telephone company, thus to "serve their community in the highest way." A CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS A CALL FOR VOLUME Talk to all sorts and conditions of people about the museum interests on the hill. Tell them about the room in Fraser Hall where they can learn what the ancient Greeks have done for common up-reaching Jayhawkers. Dilate upon the national standing of the Dyche Museum with its invaluable beats and birds, beetles and butterflies, fossile and curios. Expatiate upon the Brynwood collection of paintings in the art department, and how one might well travel many miles to see it. And finally, try to express the pre-eminence of the Thayer Art Collection among the State Universities in its many lines of unique excellence, its vast influence for pure enjoyment and the highest culture. And the first question always is, "In it open on Sunday?" Then you hang your hand and explain that it is open in one way, and that is the open and flagrant disregard of the state law which requires that all such collections shall be thoroughly accessible on the only day on which large majority can visit them. This ought pot so to be. If the appropriation is not sufficient for the Sunday necessities, then the state should be awakened to the fact. It is well to make a good law for an institution and the people, but the institution should be enabled to keep it. The people will not fail to show how much they value it. One citizen of Lawrence says he lived in town a whole year before he ever got inside the Dyche Museum. Then he took advantage of a wholly unexpected weekday chance. Many people live here all their lives and never hear about the advantages that these various collections would give them. We need a hundred times more public about everything on the hill. And these last school weeks when we have many visitors every day we might have a corps of volunteer doents to show them about. This might be arranged at least for the Sunday afternoons that yet remain for the four outstanding collections. Who loves his Alma Mater and the general good enough to organize a movement of this kind? There is yet time to do an immense amount of good in this direction. The two great nations that contributed the most to our civilization, Greece and Rome, had no potatoes or sugar or butter or common beans for centuries. They did without tea and coffee and chocolate, and candy and soft drinks were unknown. And we think that we are regular martyrs to present conditions. WHY FEED THE GERMANS? At the same time efforts are being made in America to raise money to feed the thousands of German children who are said to be staring the press dispatches car reports that horse racing, which was suspended at the opening of the war, has been resumed in Berlin. These same reports state that the attendance is large and that a great deal of enthusiasm is being shown over the sport. Betting runs up into the millions of marks. Of course, money is cheap in Germany because of its depreciation, but at the same time betting has never been so liberal. The persons who have the money are willing to take a chance with it. These stories hardly tally with the reports of starvation, which a large percentage of the American people believe to be true. If the conditions are as they are pictured, why should not the race track gamblers take care of the thousands of starving children? America woght not to be made to help out in a country where there is money to gamble on horse races but not to feed children. Of course, if German children are really starving and the country has not the means to feed them, then America ought to and will contribute generously to the aid of the country. Is there no one sufficiently trained in etiquette to determine the standard of good manners in the revolving door? According to the New York Evening Post there is a great deal of doubt whether the man should go first and push the door the door that ladies first should still hold out. There should be some authority in America which could assure the American people in regard to conditions of places which are asking for aid. It is not necessary to produce evidence that the Belgians or the French who were in the occupied areas need help, but in Germany the question is different. We should know the facts and if the people are able to bet millions of marks on the races they are able to care for their own people. "Father and Son Are Both Shot Through Head; Neither One Seriously Injured—reads a headline in the To-Table column—and hard-headed run in the family?" One job on your hands is better than two on your mind. The wise man and the fool's money are soon united. Campus Opinion All seniors are being urged to join the Alumni Association. In proportion as we have a 100 per cent Alumni Association, just so much more K, U, bachelor's bigger and more baccalaureate and will mean more and more to its graduates. LET'S JOIN, SENIORS! Editor, Daily Kansan: It will be largely through the cooperation of the alumni that the Million Dollar Drive can be successful and a stadium and commons building a reality for Kansas. The Alumni Association of Kansas offers every K. U. man and woman in touch with each other and interested in K. U. As we have put K. U. First during our four short years upon Mount Oread, so we should continue to do. The easiest and most efficient and satisfactory way of doing this is to join the Alumni Association. VALUES —Interested "All our lives we must be pickers and choosers, and in the latter part of our days we shall be extraordinary if we do not look back ruefully upon many a failure in the earlier years to see what was wutile and what was worth while; says Jude, "In Philadelphia Leider, "The Philadelphia Leider, "The all lessons taught us then was to provide us with right principles of choice, whether the choosing was a career, or a of a friend, or of a policy, or of an act. In the retrospect over the way that we cannot take a second time we wonder what would have happened, work we would have done on other road, or remembrances too much for us? Or, in the freedom of the will, did we make the wrong decision? We often blame on fate what was our own fault. We do not care to admit that there was a flaw in character. Willing to justify ourselves, we save our self esteem and plausible pretexts that may deserve others; but "One man's scale of virtues is not another's. It is strange to find how much painful concern is given by the materialist to perishable commodities. He takes his pride in the house he built, the business he reared, the possessions wherewith he advanced himself; and he deems his life a success because of the money that he made. To the goal of material purity his whole career was painted and all his efforts were made. He the friendship of those who could be useful to him for his advancement.

That is why governments are reluctant to allow China means that diplomacy can marshal. jeans that diplomacy can marshal. The new factor is the American traders. Keen and aggressive, they are in China today in good numbers, overturning the old order by new methods creating a demand among the natives for fountain pens, cash registers and time-saving devices of The intrusion of the American into a field that has long been sacred to the old established traders has naturally caused trouble. The aid of diplomacy has been involved. The Hongkong Ordinase, whereby American concerns are barred from incorporation in China is a factor that has introduced anomalous friction in American-British relations in Shanghai. This is finding as echo in South American and other markets where the nationals of the two Powers are competing. In view of the vital importance of Angle-American harmony this is decorable. Japanese traders, confronted by a successful Chinese boycott because of the Shantung affair, stand with the British against the American trader Americans in the Far East have protested to Washington against the Hongkong Ordinance. An understanding now between the three powers is vital (wary) of China, they say, will prevent serious trouble. But Washington so far is deaf to the rumblings from the East_Minneapolis Journal.

A course of two years, as a training school for teachers of retail selling has been incorporated in the courses of study of New York University as the outgrowth of a conference between the superintendent of New York City Schools, representatives of the university, and prominent retail merchants in the city. The School is supplemented to supply the demand for teachers of retail selling and the course is supplemented by practical work.
