The Daily, Kaiser aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students rather than metify printing the news in a way that is more authentic, holds versatility; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be sensitive; to wiser heads; in all, to serve the students; to pay the students of the University.

KET in your home?
CONSERVE VACATION TIME
The high school senior is offered an ideal opportunity to start his college work with the Summer Session. This term is coming more and more to be recognized as one of the regular semesters of work at the University. There is no logical reason, says Dean F. J. Kelly, director of the Summer Session, why college students should take a three month's vacation during summer months, when such is not the custom among business and professional men.
Especially at this time, when each month sees greater need of trained men and women for service both abroad and at home, either in or out of uniform, it is up to high school seniors to prepare themselves to do something worth while as quickly as possible. Many students can be of little use at home during summer months. The University is offering them the chance to spend this time profitably.
Personal interest and supervision of the student's work by instructors is possible to a greater degree in the summer because classes are small. This makes the beginning of college work easier for the student who, because of poor high school training, sometimes finds his work very difficult if he starts in at the crowded fall semester. The attention of the student is concentrated on two or three courses only. Full library facilities are available while the number of students is only a third of its normal strength. Choice of boarding and lodging houses is greater.
High school graduates, beginning their college course in June, attending two subsequent Summer Sessions and three winters will be graduated in three years, thus saving one year's time.
Really superior advantages and the practical saving of time combine to make the beginning of the Summer Session a particularly advantageous time to enter the University.

He went to the theater and left the lights burning in his own room. Of course he had paid for his rent and he could treat his room as he pleased, but he was not conserving or saving fuel for his country. Such a trifling matter yet if every student would do the same—
MID-SEASON SLUMP
Spring and romance, summer and parting, fall and knitting—this was the program of most University women in the first year of America's war. Then came winter and gradual cessation of labor, steady decline of patriotic achievement.
The knitting bag with its splotchy colors, the ball of yarn wound on bracelets, both according to prescribed and breathlessly obeyed fashion, have gone the way of things ephemeral. No more is knitting tucked under the arm, no more is heart upon the sleeve.
Are the women of the University of Kansas such flimsy butterflies that they knit only as a passing fancy, and not for the men who have shouldered guns and joined the van of Pershing? In the hour that men are men indeed, have women forgotten their womaniness and become womannish?
There is an answer. That answer is a categorical command. Knit! If the women of the United States had kept to their knitting, thousands of men, soldiers in the National Army and sailors in the navy, would not have suffered through the rigorous winter months. Knit! The men over there must be properly clothed for another winter and before the first snow they will have been joined by as many more soldiers of the line.
Knit—thou shalt knit! No one is saying this to anyone. Everyone possessed of human consciousness lays the duty on self if self is honest with God, and country, and mankind. Every woman of this University is under obligation to herself to knit during every in-between-moment of her life until the war for her is fought to the end.

He borrowed his friend's typewriter and kept it for two weeks, operating it by means of the one-finger hunt-and-peck method.
When he took it back the ribbon was so badly cut that it was useless for further writing, and the only compensation the owner received for the damage was a gruff "much oblited."
It's the little things that count.
ON OTHER "HILLS"
Military drill has now been made compulsory for all men students at Boston University.
By the action of the trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, Kaiser Wilhelm and Count Von Bernstorff have been removed from the roll of honor of the University. The Emperor received the degree of L.L. D in 1905, and von Bernstorff in 1911.
At Indiana University it is a cherished tradition that the members of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity, shall set the date and be the first to wear straw hats on the campus when the warm days come.
Radcliffe College for women is going to organize a farm unit. Last year Vassar, Bryn Mawr, Mt Holyoke and Goucher did notable war work with their farms. Radcliffe has no adequate farm lands of its own, but the unit will be sent to one of the districts where agricultural labor is scarce.

AS SUNDAY WOULD SAY—
The Rev. Baxter Weters of the Christian church at Lexington, $M_0$, a brother of Dr. Henry J. Waters of the Kansas City Weekly Star, has a new version of the Biblical incident of David and Goliath, brought down to date in a form that smacks of "Billy" Sunday's interpretation of that incident. Here it is as he uses d' in his poem, "Catholic," for the cadets of Wentworth Military Academy, who attended his church in a body:
"In those days, as now, there were wars and rumors of wars. David's rather, Jesse, said; 'Dave, leave the sweep to me; take a day off and sup over the hill to see how the boys on the boys in the trenches are good,' along. As David came up to see the big game, a colossal figure stalked down the hillside, frantically challenging Israel; 'Get out, you inferior lot. Go back home, stay at home; keep off the earth.'
"Now, David imaged of Sismamah,
his brother: 'Who is this big attf,
that he should defy the rimes of the
bulls with his might makes right lung?'
"Sh! Go slow. That's Kaiser Wil-
ium.
" 'Shamahm, you remember the day Samuel anointed me? Since then my soul has been on fire; and, by the eternal, there's enough of the . . . Samuel left in me that I can this old Kaiser."
"So David gathered his pebbles from the brook and went after his game. And down came that big bluffer, Bill. And David sused the giant's sword into his jugar vein and lifted high his sory head in the face of the enemy. Then he called across: 'Sham, go tell dad to get the neighbor boy to look after the sheep; get Uncle Samuel and come on and meet me in Berlin.'" —Kansas City Star.
