U. 25 and 66 Published in the afternoon five times, in the month of March, from the press of the Rajanur, from the press of the the Rajanur, from the press of the the The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the student, and often than merely print the news on paper; however that merely verifies the hold; to play qn favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to leave more serious problems wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. THURSDAY, JAN. 17, 1918 If speech wasn't quite so free, it might be worth more. Twenty years ago "a grand entertainment" meant that a moving picture was in town. THE DIFFERENCE The pessimist says it is ten days until examinations; the optimist says in fifteen days all examinations will be over. WEAR THE COLORS If you have been guilty of mentality accusing a soldier of parading his patriotic spirit when he wears his olive-drab uniform, you have not dared to do so out loud, for you have known it was not true. Besides, the government has settled that matter by saying that the soldier must don the garb of his company. If you are not in military service, Uncle Sam does not force you to wear the insignia of your special organization, the Red Cross, but he wants you to know just the same whether you are a good soldier or not. It does not look as though you were flaunting a philanthropic work. A dollar is not so that any one need accuse you of boasting. Wear your button and show that you are an honest-to-goodness person who is doing his share of the war work at home. Show that you are proud of that Red Cross button. YOUR STAMP OF APPROVAL What do you do with your maga-zines after you have read them? Some months ago a postal provision went into effect which permits the remailing of magazines for the price of one cent. On the front cover of practically every magazine worth reading may be found the "Notice to readers: When you finish reading this copy of The — place a United States one cent stamp on this notice, hand same to any United States postal employee, and it will be placed in the hands of our soldiers or sailors at the front. No wrapping—no addresses. A. S. Burleson, Postmaster General." Here is a chance for every University student to score big at a cost of one cent a week. A happy soldier is a good soldier. WELL FOLLOW THE FLAG WELL PUBLIC The University of Kansas is by no means behind other institutions in the matter of offering and giving direct service to the government in its preparation for war. Military drill and CAMPUS PESTS I HAVE SEEN BY LEACH GIRL WHO HANDS YOU A ABOUT CABARETS AND SHE KNOWS A LOT CHICKENS AND THE CROPS. compulsory physical exercise are preparing the University's man power for the trenches. The present course in wireless instruction and the course in military tactics to be offered next semester furnish ample proof of the Institutional's patriotism and willingness to serve, without mention of the many students and members of the faculty who have entered into active war work. More and greater gifts are in store for the government, and they will be made when the call comes. In adopting this policy, the University has shown that it believes it proper to deviate from its normal course, to scatter its interests and perhaps curtail its class room work, in order to help win the war. Its money and its energy will always be willingly placed at the disposal of the government. The University of Kansas follows he flag. CAMPUS OPINION NEW ENROLLMENT SCHEME To the Daily Kansan: A protest has been voiced against the semi-annual scrimmage and pitched battle of enrolling in classes for the new semester. It seems incongruous with the general spirit of formality and dignity surrounding this institution to stand in a gyrating human mass for hours awaiting an opportunity to fake out a schedule. B. S. Can not some newer and less strenuous method of beginning the semester be instituted? A suggestion: That students be permitted to make out enrollment cards during some recitation hour with the help of the instructor of that class. A WORD OF PRAISE If any girl thinks the physical training department is unfair she should go over and listen to Miss Mix. She can smile longer and be more reasonable than anyone would consider within human capacity. She deserves praise. When final papers are due there is little than can be done at home. The library books are in such great demand that it becomes almost impossible to get them. Would it be unreasonable to have longer library hours quiz week and the week before? Besides it is too cold to study at home. From one who is required to tak gym the rest of the semester. NEW LIBRARY HOURS To the Daily Kansan: HARRY LAUDER AND HIS SON A Senior. To the Daily Kansan: NEW LIBRARY HOURS HARRY LAUDER AND his SON Do not think that I am bitter that my son was called by God to make the supreme sacrifice. Killed in any other manner in times of peace, I think my life would have soured, and I would have become embittered against the world, but dying as John Lauder did, I can only say that, even with the knowledge of what pain his death has cost me, I would send him to France again to risk his life anew were it possible today to resurrect him from the ground. Because since his death, I have been to France, and I have seen the bleeding illy, and have come to realize more than ever that John Lauder's life was not given in vain or useless—Harry Lauder in the Amer'er magazine. RedCrossNews FROM THE ARMY IN WHICH ALL OF US ARE ENLISTED University women who are enrolled in Red Cross classes on the Hill may get yarn for knitting at the gymnasium every afternoon at four. It may be obtained at Coach Hamilton's office. A child swallowed a button at a Red Cross chapter headquarters. The child thought it was something good to eat. Since buttons have been so scarce and therefore so valuable suit for damages has been considered in this case. In Bentonville, Arkansas every house in the town but one has a red *Ross* service flag in the window, or poor? Something should be done. From a few hundred to 20,000,000 is the growth of the American Red Cross in the year 1917. Three quarters of a ton of American Christmas candy was distributed b the Society of Friends to Quaker Children in France. Four hours old was the age of a child who joined the Red Cross in Topeka, Kansas. Topeka claims that it has the youngest member in America. MENTAL LAPSES "Why, they've just laid a corner stone for the new workingmen's club across the road, and she's trying to make neighbors think she did it." "What makes that hen of yours ackle so loudly?" inquired Jenkins of his neighbor. She—"Oh John, you are such a wretched financier. Why don't you keep your account in a bank that has of money?"—Boston Transcript. FOOLING THE NEIGHBORS University Has 496 Former Students In Service "Would you mind telling me what happened in the last half of David Copperfield?" asks the shade of the ordinary mortal. "I bought a set of your book, but its installment plan, to buy it just half" through the book when I 1 died."Life. He—"We'll have to give up our intended summer trip. My account at the bank is already over-drawn." Albert H. Irwin, Second Lieutenant 18th Inf., Camp Stuart, Newport News A POOR FINANCIER The shade of _the ordinary mortal meets the shade of Dickens. "Well, this cook has the record." "How so?" Herbert B. Iwin, Second Lieutenant, Newport News, Md. She was just an ordinary woman without much time or leisure for culture. She did not know the difference between an ionic and a Doric column in architecture and she was not "up" on china painting or Roman Emperors. But she brought up three children to tell the truth, to love God, to love their brothers and to do honest labor with their hands and not be ashamed of it. When she died the papers did not notice it, but the Recording Angel said, as he reached for a fresh pen and turned over a clean page, “A queen is coming; get the throne ready.”—Sheldon. Nalel D. Ireland, Naval Officers Training. 852, 930-6150 "What on earth was that?" — "Your promise to come."—Louise Ville Courteau writes. A REASONABLE REQUEST The Daily Kansan—a daily letter home.
