The Daily Kanaan aims to please the students of the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news on paper, she wants students' versatility holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be chosen; to have a chance to leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all, to serve to the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 14, 1917.
SACRIFICE OR DUTY?
Since the entrance of this country into the war, there has never been a striking opportunity for the University of Kansas to show the spirit of sacrifice until this week. Student sacrifices have necessarily been distributed, as sacrifices always are, unequally. Next Friday every person with personal, school and national pride will have a chance to prove that sacrifices can be equally balanced and proportioned to individualistic standings. There must be $11,000 raised for Y. M. war work; necessarily there must be some reconstructing; necessarily there must be sacrifice.
No doubt, many students will not feel the spirit of sacrifice and many will sacrifice with only a partial or limited patriotic service. For those few who haven't accepted sufficiently of sacrifice let them treat the matter from a purely business standpoint and accept the great work to be done Friday as a duty.
Everybody in the University has been asked to serve in the reception line for the Home-Coming Day festivities next Saturday. Keep that date open.
THE STUDENTS' BATTLE
Be it a duty or sacrifice it is up to the University to spend at least $11,000 for the comforts of those who are doing the real fighting for democracy.
Every man at K. U. is a prospective soldier. No one doubts that the future holds for him the possibility of military service. Whether or not the second draft comes in February or later, the prospect of trench life hangs over these men.
In spite of the government's desire to let each man know what he may expect, there still is an element of uncertainty. It is discouraging for the student to plan for the future when it is practically certain the plan will not work; but to have no plan, to work with no end in view, is to work to no purpose. A plan of some kind should be devised and followed by the student else there is imminent danger the school year of 1917-18 will beasted effort.
The student in war time is paying a heavy price for the privilege of being a student. He is working doubly hard for the advantages of education, and under tremendous handicaps. He is fighting his first, and one of the hardest battles of the war.
And who will say the student who makes the school year count has not won a victory as great as the capture of an enemy trench?
And then there is the County Club meeting. Some time during the coming week, the county that you represent will establish an active organization to help push the Amendment to the Permanent Income Bill—providing you go to the County Club meeting and do your bit.
For those who looked with envy upon the few who were excused from drill and exercise because of weak hearts let them rejoice. A special and very much supervised course of training will be given and it will take 50 minutes 5 times a week.
MENTAL LAPSES
I've beamed when you hollered, "Oh,
Girl!"
"HONEY" DRAWS THE LINE
Gin,
I've hope,
"Oh, say!"
I've fallen for "Dearie" and "Missus."
And everything else till today.
But there one's thing that's got to be different,
From now till the Great War is done.
ACCLIMATED
Unless you are prepared for a riot,
You're not to quit calling me
to see your sister.
Harrigan was out walking with his new bull pup when he met a friend. Everybody's Magazine reports the conversation.
"That's a fine-looking brute," said the friend, who was an admirer of blooded dogs. "Where do you keep bim?"
"Oh, up in my room," said Harrison.
"Don't you know that it isn't
a dog in your room?" asked
the friend.
"Oh, he's used to it now," Harrigan answered.
GETTING IT BOTH WAYS
It isn't eating less than we mind

less for more money.
KNEW HIS BIBLE
On board a steamer "somewhere on the Atlantic" a seasick soldier boy was having a session at the rail when an officer came along.
"Hello! What's this you're doing?" said the officer mockingly.
"I'm rendering unto the sea, sir, the things that are the sea's, sir," gasped the soldier as soon as he could sneak.

The Librarian—An Autocrat Forever!
HIS MEANS OF SUPPORT
Judge. Have you any means of support?
Lawyer.
How do librarians—these select, prim creatures who sit imposingly behind majestic desks and deal out their all-knowing glances to their insignificant patrons—get that well-informed air which they perennially radiate? The librarian is an autorcater in her domain. She suggests law and authority. She meets competition keen for Britannica.
In her corner of society the librarian holds a position of prominence. She always keeps the conversation on her phone, and she diffuses knowledge to those around her.
The Chemistry department has just received some tinted pictures of the American home of Joseph Priestley, the man who helped discover oxygen. Priestley was a Unitarian minister in England before coming to Pennsylvania, where he continued to preach. The pictures are hung on the east wall of the second-floor landing of the Chemistry Building.
Picture a librarian engaged in local gossip. Impossible! Picture, rather, a librarian in a group which is discussing a piece of scandal. See her immediately assume a shocked pression,rown, his attitude when he attends has failed to create the desired effect, rise and make a haughty departure.
Receives New Pictures
Think of a librarian caught in a rain storm, unprepared. She comes out wearing an apron and sits sadly sagging and beddragged, her dignity forever impaired.
POET'S CORNER
He wasted days a-dreaming
In fields and pleasant ways.
He wasted time unseeming
In voicing honest praise;
in calling on others.
THE FAILURE
He stole away to whisper
Beneath the woodland's shade,
To dream awhile and ponder
On all that God has made.
He littered his roving
his car, in marrye,
To speak a word of loving
And plant a seed of cheer;
He took to tomorowing
In seeking after man
In seeking after man
And all the gain it yields,
And took the path of beauty
To childhood's rosy fields;
He shared the pleasure of them,
He turned from path of duty And all the gain it yields,
Who bowed beneath their sorrows,
And brought their smiles again.
he answered.
And heard their childish lore,
Like Him who bade us love them
Two thousand years before.
His precious time was wasted.
And now he's growing old.
And now he's aged.

The fruits of fame and gold;

And love of men and childhood,
And never yet has tasted
The fruits of fame and gold;
A heart of hate bereft,
And love of men and childhood,
