The Daily Kansas sun gets to print the news from the University of Kansas; to go farther than merely printing the news by attending for the ideals the University puts forth in its schools; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to wider heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. MONDAY, APRIL 26, 1920 FOR MISS BERGER The life of a science instructor is not an enviable one. The contact with the students in the role of a taskmaster generally raises a barrier of antagonism between students and faculty that is not present in the professor and his classroom students. Emily V. Berger was an instructor that this axiom did not apply to. - Students who worked in the chemistry laboratory under her direction universally speak of her uniring patience and good humor in helping them over the difficult places, her fidelity to duty and fairness and her willingness to lend a helping hand to those in difficulties. The University has indeed lost a valuable member of its working force in Miss伯勒. Few have both the strength of character and kindness that she possessed, and it is indeed hard when such a character is taken away so early in her work. OLD CLOTHES—WITHOUT CLUBS The announcement that the soviet order, that everyone in Moscow must take a bath, is causing great conatemnation is sure proof that the Russians are closely related to the average American boy. To start a gingham club would be an act of folly on the part of the women of the University. Such a movement likely would be turned into a fad and more money would be spent for gingham dresses than is ordinarily used for that purpose in the spring. No doubt the price of gingham would be raised as soon as it became known that such a movement was on foot. University women would be far from successful in lowering the high prices of clothing if such a method as this should be adopted. That the women are too sensible to undertake such a measure has been proved by the fact that they have passed a resolution to wear their old clothing. If the majority of the women carry out this plan, the minority will surely feel out of place if they wear new and expensive apparel among those who are attempting to help society. Soon it may be almost as poor form to wear new clothing on the campus as it was formerly to wear shabby clothing to a formal affair. It is the variety of the women, rather than the men, which has done so much toward elevating the prices of clothing and it is only fair that they should do their part in helping lower them. A University of well dressed women and shabby dressed men would be incongruous. The women should feel its duty to support the men in the "old clothes movement" which they already have under way. It is not half as much trouble to get out your old clothes as it is to buy new, and the former cannot hurt your pride nearly as much as the latter will hurt your pocketbook. To wear your last year's ginchams and your last season's suits will hurt no one and will on the whole, be more appropriate to wear to school than new and expensive clothing. HATS OFF TO OUIJA BOARD how the world has continued and progressed for years without the advice and consent of the Ouijia Board, is fast becoming an important study for learned professors, and will doubtless soon become one of the greatest problems for scientific investigation. Before the Ouijia Board came into common use, it was quite impossible for girls to learn whom they were going to marry six or seven years later. Housewives could not be certain whether their husbands would come home to dinner on time that night, nor could the said husbands always be sure of the best investments or their savings. in those days, one could never tell just what sort of weather he would have for his trip to the city a week from the next Saturday, nor could he be certain whether or not it would be worth his while to make that trip. He could not be at all sure whether he should buy his spring wardrobe that day or wait a few weeks. But now the days of doubting and indecision are over. People are saved from making terrible mistakes, from losing time and money and acting too hastily—all by the simple influence of the Quia Board. Not only are they directed in the more important events and incidents but in the little everyday happenings which are so vital to individuals in spite of their apparent smallness. Little do we understand how we were able to live without the great time and trouble saver which is now found in every home and absolutely relied upon by every family in America. Its unfaltering dependability and unerring answers to any question which may be asked, have given it a powerful place in the affairs of our country. Let us be duly thankful for the wonderful asset which is now firmly established in the progress of civilization. Campus Opinion NOT A UNIFORM ENTHUSIAST Editor, Daily Kansan: The woman student who tips them at two hundred need no longer worry about slinder lines in clothes for she will become a twin sister to her who balances at eighty, if the suggested uniform plan should be adopted. It has been said that the campus is infested with the ultra fashionable modes. We had not noticed that but are always glad to be informed on little things like this. Wool dresses, warm coat and sweater and we are being so pretty sensible but then one can never tell when one has judged rightly. This uniform for women would be particularly admirable in a big State University in killing any possible invaders and should not period so make them all alike. They wear uniforms at the insane asylum and the penitentiary so why not at all the state institutions. Students will then come under the head of insane asylums. Work-a-day life is a pretty hum- drum work and this thing would complete it to the Nth degree of monotony. This uniform system would be a fine uniform for women in university for their enrollment would be swell with Kansas women. Come on, women of the University of Kansas, lets not be outdone by Haskell Institute. Hurrah for the uniform. Jayhawks Flown Go Slow. William Y. Morgan, A. B., 85, acquired the Hutchinson Gazeette ten years after his graduation and while developing it into one of the largest papers in the state has found time to devote to politics, his alma mater, and other interests. He was state printer for a four year period from 1898 to 1902 and also lientendent governance of the state for two terms, from 1904 to 1906, being loyal to the University and has missed but one commencement exercise during the entire time since his graduation. This occurred during the war while he was engaged in war work in France. Florence Finch Kelley, A. B. 1881 is an author of several books and a contributor to magazines on political and social science questions. She has served on the staff of the New York Times Review of Books. During the campaign of 1916, she was an ardent admirer of President Wilton and campaigned through several states in the interest of his re-election. Mrs. Kelley made a trip in 1965 to Australia and New Zealand to study economic and social legislation and its results. She is a sister of Charles S. Finch, editor of the Lawrence Gazette. The sociology students who went to Leavenworth last Thursday can now speak of the time when they were "in the penitentiary". It's also a fair guess that the first course consisted of fruit cocktail. Every University student favors Americanization Day, May 3. In fact, he will endorse most any day if it means a vacation. Each chorus in the K. U. Follies will be attired in a different costume, according to the announcement. We will have at least one full costume, will have at least one full costume. Although four students are enjoying the mumps at the University hospital, it is not likely that a quartet will be organized. General Pershing has been "decorated" with an LL B. degree by the University of Missouri. So if worst came to pass, he would put an hiskle and practice law. The K. U. Follies will be different in more than one respect. The choruses can really sing, if the advance publicity is true. How Normals Originated To an American teacher, Horser Mann, the world owes the idea of normal schools for training public school, teachers, an institution found today in all civilized lands, some o which are important to the idea that than is the land of its birth. In our nearest neighbor, the province of Ontario, for example, a beginning teacher would no sooner be chen to conduct a district school without a year's attendance at the local normal school. The appropriate province of the province. horribly poor and premature of the province. It is strange but true that there is a greater need of facilities for training elementary teachers in the United States than in any other country in the world. The bureau of education's statistics for this country show that 12 percent of teachers in this country are "below standard but taken on temporarily in the emergency." Of course not one of these ten of thousands ever has seen the inside of a normal school. It is safe to say about the low quality of teachers qualified" teachers have passed directly from the pupil stage to that of the teacher without the least instruction in the principles of education or prac- The salaries of teachers are going up in every part of the country, and they are going to stay up. Young men and women may look upon the future of the teacher's work with confidence as they prepare for their collegeically and better paid financially. So the normal schools will fill up in again in the near future—Chicago Journal. Of the states having the greatest number of "below standard" teachers the great state of Texas leads with 4,000. Texas boasts of many attractions and advantages, and justly, but she and the other states in like condition educationally do not mention their deplorable drawbacks for families ambitions that they face because of millions of other American children are setting. When all the "below standard" teachers have been supervised, as they soon will be, attention of the nation and of the teaching profession, particularly must be directed to providing all prospective teachers with some professional training. How can it be done, asks someone, when the normal schools now existing show a diminishing attendance in recent years? The department of bacteriology of the University of Idaho has received orders for legume cultures sufficient to treat over 3000 acres. These nitrogen-gathering bacteria are used in the production and a cost to the farmers of Idaho at a cost of twenty five cents per acre. Orders have been received from Utah, Montana, Arizona, New Mexico, Wash., and Texas. The project is expected to put at least 12,000 of the cultures before the planting season is over. A series by University faculty members pointing out the good features of other universities and colleges where they have been. One Thing I Liked ONE THING I LIKED It was a famous eastern university whose student body had long been noted for its distinctive and remarkable spirit. For more than a century and a half it had been developing traditions whose binding force in some cases made them a permanent power in the life of the institution. One can better understand their influence when he realizes that many of the students were sons and grandchildren of alumni and from boyhood had heard recounted stories of the student lives of universities of the past. With such a boy it is always been understood when he was prepared he would go to the university where father and grandfather had graduated. To him the upholding and perpetuation of their college traditions was a kind of family inheritance. One of these traditions I liked. It was to the effect that whatever else a student of that university might be, he must be a gentleman. And it was a part of their unwritten code that a man who would chase him would resort to unfair means to get himself out of a pinch and avoid loss or failure which was rightly coming to him was not a good sportsman. He was a "nucker." They did seem to care about their work didn't care how much their Student Court of Honor took the necessary steps to sever his connection with the university. Not many years ago a student was called before the Student Court of Honor and tried because it was repeatedly rumored that he cheated in playing Let's see...
