Edited by the Director of Ratson, from the press of the De- presser. The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of further education than merely printing the news and therefore versatility holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be friendly; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1918 It's no trouble to get an audience when you are doing something foolish. Students are divided into three classes—those who are taking quizzes, those who have taken them and those who are going to take them. THE SMALLPOX SITUATION A new set of clothes can be purchased any day, but it takes quite a while to get a new set of manners. If the compulsory vaccination of all University students against smallpox is to accomplish its purpose, that of preventing all possibility of an epidemic of the disease at the 'University, it is absolutely essential that all students be vaccinated immediately. Unfortunately final examinations are but two weeks off, and if students postpone their vaccination they will not only run a greater risk of contracting the disease but they are likely to be suffering from the effects of the vaccination during examination week. Therefore the logical step for every student who has not been successfully vaccinated is to make arrangements at the student hospital to be vaccinated immediately. Unpleasant as the vaccination may be, no one can say that it is not justified. It is known that there are several cases of smallpox in the city. There may be more. Smallpox is often covered up and hidden. Consequently the vaccination has been made compulsory. Neither Chancellor Strong nor the University health officials care to take the responsibility for allowing students to be negligent in this matter. Those who suffered directly or indirectly from the disease in case of an epidemic would be the first to blame them. COLLEGES AND WAR The fact that American colleges and universities are going ahead with little change in their teaching, while outside all is undergoing change, is not a condition to be viewed with alarm. One business of the college amid the tumult and havoc of war, as in time of peace, is to conserve American ideals. But to attain this end in the face of war requires a particularly vigorous transmitting of these ideals. To perform this great task is perhaps all that can in fairness be asked of the educational institutions. But they are doing much more through direct service to the government. All this calls for the expenditure of much additional energy. American colleges have it as their duty to render the nation a distinctive service. To aid in this work as well as to CAMPUS PESTS I HAVE SEEN BY LEACH BOOB WHO SITS AT AN INTERESTING AND SPRINGS A LINE STORIES THAT WERE ABOUT THE TIME OF profit by it patriotic teachers remain at their desks and patriotic students in the classrooms. None can doubt that this well directed patriotism will help save the country while also helping to save American education from collapse. OUR HEATING PLANT The class in hygiene and sanitation under the direction of Dr. Ida Hyde has carried out a practical investigation of the heating and ventilating conditions in certain recitation rooms. The work was done by trained students, and their results may tally with some conclusions you have reached. In Fraser Hall it was found that the percentage of carbon dioxide in the air was four times as great as it should be and that the rooms during November and December were overheated. Moreover, many of the women had on their winter coats, hats, and furs. Such conditions, as is well known to make one susceptible to colds and infectious diseases. The class found that the heating and ventilating plants in the Engineering and Administration buildings were in good order and properly conducted do fairly good work. In the Engineering Building, however, the plant is partly out of commission. The plant in the Administration Building is not always conducted properly, according to the report of the class, and consequently windows are opened which further interferes with its operation. If the plant were properly run it would not be necessary to open the windows. Similar conditions were found in other University buildings, among them being the Medic Building in which the Daily Kansan is printed. So great is the need for conservation of heat and health at this time that the University authorities will undoubtedly agree that the heating and ventilating systems in the University buildings should be brought to a higher standard of efficiency Question: When was the Daily Kapsan born? Your Daily Quiz On University History (Awter Hound grade yourself) The main story of the issue was moulded on the just announced quiz schedule, a subject over which as many pulses quickened then as now. Louis La Coss was editor-in-chief, and George Marsh managing editor. In the editorial flag the infant definitely, but modestly, announced himself as the official publication of the University of Kansas. Answer: The Daily Kansan will celebrate its sixth birthday next Wednesday, having been born on Tuesday afternoon, January 16, 1912. A healthy looking cartoon on the front page portrays young knackers on a lee covered world and exclaiming, "They'll be tickled when they see who 'tis! "Didn't you feel homesick sometimes, Dennis?" "Sure; but I used to look at your photograph, and then I didn't feel homesick any more!"—Bystander London. NEXT TO YOU LECTURE OF NEW RAMESES II.

It will not keep him from going to war, contrary to reports. Don't let your head rest upon his shoulder, regardless of how broad, manly and inviting it is. One too weak to hold up her head should avoid such violent exercise as dancing. Don't trust too much to your escort for bodily protection. A few more clothes will do just as well. It is only full dress affairs that allow much undress—and the managers say tonight's dance is not to be that kind of an affair. Young men—do not crush you partner—breath is necessary to motion in human beings and particularly to the "poetry of motion." Don't attempt to lift "her" bodily, an aerospace is better if she desires to rise above her own heights.

The latest example of English as she is spoken comes from Egypt, where a native interpreter, who had over-stayed in the following letter to his chief; "Here Johnny," said the father, "what are you doing in that book-case?"

BEVO—a proven, whirlwind success—has been followed by a host of imitations. They are colorful and have similar shape and color with labels and names suggestive of the BEVO bottle's embellishments. But you don't taste the package—it is the contents you must depend upon for enjoyment. Beware of these various just-as-goods—don't identify BEVO by the shape of the bottle alone. Look !! Certain identification marks protect you against tampering. A label on the product, remember, but attempted resurrection is not guaranteed to be permanent in bottles similar to that of the new stock. The genuine bottle has a "no touch" tag; the genuine—have the box opened before opening—has the tag removed. Look for the Seal Listen! LOCATE it in the bureau. See that it is unbroken; covers the Crown Top, and that the Crown Top rushes the top; trace mar-k. Airs the fox trade mark. Dissure the Bottle bears this label. BEVО is a pure dink.

A cordial welcome for students...Adv. Laughter is a most perfect medicine. It takes a man out of himself and so gives nature a chance. The brain is so frequently our prime mover in sickness that anything that temporarily disarranges it, as it were, is good for us. Forgetfulness is a great administrative and recuperative genius. He who forgets wins half the battle, whether it be the forgetting of an injury or the dismissal of a trouble. Time, the sovereign healer of all our wounds of heart and soul, is but an ally of the brain, and in this combination we have perhaps, the greatest solution of the secret of life. But in laughter, almost inexplicable as it is, there exists a great healer. It is the forerunner, one might call it, of forgetfulness. It is the distractor. It shakes up the creature. It fosters hope, without which our being is almost a blank. Laughter is the truest of medicines. Get it when you can. Do not be afraid to laugh. It blesses you and those who hear. It is akin to mercy. The light side of nature is the happy one. Make hake to laugh—Western Druggist. CLASSIFIED Central Educational Bureau, St. Louis, Mo. Wants teachers.
