The Daily Kansas atom stims to
encourage students at the
University of Kansas; to go far
more than merely printing the

versity holds; to be cheerful to;
to be charitable; to be courageous;
to leave more serious problems
to wiser heads; in all, to serve to
the students of the University.

PROUD TO BE AMERICANS
From time to time a ceremony takes place in an American court wherein a group of men and women, once aliens to our shores, solently oaths on, renouncing former allegiances and swear helocthor to uphold the constitution and the flag of the United States.
Fittingly it is a solemn ceremony, for it marks a momentous event in the man's life.
There is more in a naturalization ceremony that the mere adding of a few more names to the country's roll of citizenship. There is a reminder that American institutions are worth something. To be born an American, the rights of citizenship are a free gift, too often sightedly regarded, but to the alien who has come among us they are privileges to be sought. The man of allborn birth did not have to be an American. He might have remained in the homeland; he might have returned after spending a season here, but then, rather, he gives up all connections with the mother country and with deliberate purpose seeks American citizenship, it emphasizes again the worth of American institutions.
Another occasion commemorative of American ideals and American purposes is *Americanization Day*. Monday, it is more a mere mileage from casa room and office. It is a holiday in the real meaning of the word. It is a time our counting up the privilege of *citizenship* and for a realization of the benefits derived from that citizenship. It is a time to suggest to any if i ww may not care for American idals that they need not proclaim their visit as guests within the nation. It is a time for rejoicing in privileges enjoyed, and by word and action to let the world know we are proud to be Americans.
WELCOME, TRACK MEN
The University takes great pleasure in welcoming the athletes who are here for the Seventh annual High School Interscholastic Track Meet Saturday. We hope your stay with us is filled with many pleasant events, and that when you have returned to your respective homes you can look back on this occasion without a single regret.
The whole University is at your disposal, to do with as you will. You have free access to any building on the campus, and the students are willing and anxious to make your visit with us as enjoyable for you as possible.
We wish each and every one of you might leave here victorious and the winner of a medal, and were it possible, we would like to see each team carry off the honors of the meet.
The best of luck and success to all
of you.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
bigger bigger or better for the University has happened this year when than when the senior class at their meeting Tuesday neon went on record almost unanimously as being against in present manager system of conducting University affairs. At least a definite step is contemplated to make the University what it should be, a harmonious unit where the school and loyalty to it's best interest comes before cheap politics, for selfish, personal motives.
The fact that professional politics has held treasonable away over student activities so long is not the fault of one man or one committee or group of committees. It is the fault of the inertia of the student body as a whole which has calmly sat by and watched succeeding committees "git a 'plenfly while, they're gettin'."
It is commendable that the senior class has aroused itself and taken the stand for clean dealings but their off-orts will be considerably more worth while if their sentiment can be instilled into the classes which will be on the Hill next year and the next. And while the housecleaning is in progress there should be no corners left. The transactions of representative dances, the Jayhawker and so on should be open for fair inspection. There can be no real school patriotism when every student who does anything for it's benefit expects dollars and cents returns. Such work should be done as volunteer work instead of for pay. Most students would and should be willing to hold their positions for the honor. it is merely because of lack of precedent that this is not done.
And since the first step in the right direction has been taken, it behovens the healthy opinion of the majority to get behind and see that professional politics and inexhaustible graft are crowded out of the University for all time, in order that sincere school spirit, honesty and democracy may take its place.
Jayhawks Flown
John Lyle Harrington, afre studying at this University attended McGill University at Toronto, Canada. He is now a member of the firm of Harrington, Howard, and Ash, with offices in Kansas City.
Mr. Harrington is a member of various English, Canadian and American engineering societies. He has given special attention to the designing and constructing of bridges, and has taken out patents on movable bridges.
In Stuart O. Henry, A. B. 1881, are combined the qualities of both a business an and author. He was formerly secretary and treasurer of the Colorado Loan and Trust Company, and was identified with numerous land and irrigation companies. Now he writes books and maintains an office in the Flatron Building in New York City.
Mr. Henry's education was further extended by six years of study in Germany, Italy and at the Sorbonne, Paris.
Russell R. Whitman AB 93, began work on the Kansas City World as a reporter and later transferred to the advertising department of the Kansas City Star. He went east and became the publisher of the Boston American till 1914. He organized and became managing director of the Audit Bureau of Circulation, a news agency which reported the number of tweets to the newsmen to prevent fraudulent or over exaggerated claims as to circulation. He is now the owner and publisher of the New York Commercial.
Herbert S. Hadley, AB 92, achieved national fame as a trust buster of Missouri and on his record became Governor of Missouri, one of the few Republican men who ever held the office in that state. While attorney general of Missouri, he successfully prosecuted cases against the Standard Oil Company and Harvest Trust, Lunar Trust and the gambling element of the St. Louis race track. Mr. Hadley graduated from Northwestern School of Law with first honors in 1894 and is now professor of law at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
The University of Vermont is the latest institution to open medical courses to women.
Interfraternity Baseball is bringing a great deal of new material to the front. One man in particular is said to be so fast that whenever he knocks a home-run he goes around twice.
Campus Opinion
Did you ever stop to think that every dandelion that is now in bloom on the campus will make about a million more and that if they are notug up all of the grass on the campus will be crowded on campus and move the Loyalty Movement a little farther and improve the looks of the campus? We might make use of Prof. Hunter's discovery and put gasoline on them. If every student of the University would join a Dr. Hale's group, the dandelions could be eliminated. How about it, why isn't it possible?
Editor, Daily Kansan:
Anti-Dandelion.
Campus Opinion Off the Fence
For years the Saturday Evening Post has refrained from advocating any man for political preferment. While advocacy broadly, principles which the American public accepted, it has been neither partisan nor liberal. For this reason, who are close to the Post were surprised when it came out for Hoover for president. Though backing Mr. Hoover the Saturday Evening Post remains aloof from partisan politics. It merely advocates the greatest man for the greatest job; a business man for the decent; a political man for the choice. In getting off the fence the Post will rain rather than lose in the esteem of its readers.

Many a young man takes it for granted a young lady is sighing when as a matter of fact she is merely yawning.

A school of citizenship was recently held at Cae College in order to prepare the women to take up the duties of suffrage. Men, however, were admitted to the school if they thought they had something to learn.
