The Daily Kanam aims to pic-
terness, offer university of asses; to go fur-
ther than merely printing the news
of campus; to hold faculty's envir-
surance holds; to play no favorites;
to be clean; to be cheerful; to be
sweet; to save more serious problems
to headers; in all, to serve to
serve the students of no University.

Every student who can possibly do should remain in Lawrence for amendment this year. The proam is worthy of attention, the akers are of prominence, and theいた functions planned are very ative. But greater than all these is chance to roam about on Mount sad, in the cool of a June evening, hout thought or care for lessons, idees, or quizzes. Japanese lanterns be strung between the trees from ascer to Snow Hall; the University
Snow Hall; the University and will give frequent concerts; and Senior-Alumni Ball in the Gym attract crowds.
It's your last chance, perhaps, to be Mount Oured during a commencement that is not totally disorganized cause of the war situation.
Stay!
Another use has been suggested for seismograph. It might be used inating the big guns in Europe, we us time, and we'll outfighter those rmans yet!
MILITARY TRAINING
The University authorities should be slow to act on whatever suggestions the Council of National Dease makes for a course in military dining at the University next year, e evident probability of a longitudin war, together with the fact that many students will become of aft age during the next school year, could be sufficient to warrant the establishing of such a course.
Columbia University is to have its m military training camp this sum-r for men who are too young or e otherwise ineligible to attend one the regular Government camps, we course will last six weeks, and is expected that any man who has d the course will be able to get an pointment as a noncommissioned heifer if he is called out by conscriptm.
For many years compulsory drill is been the rule at the Kansas Stategricultural College, and thoughere was in the past much complainingover it, that opposition has ceasedow that the peace of the United states has been so seriously disturbed. S. A. C. students and graduateswe daily receiving commissions in theregular army and the National Guard.Under the circumstances, then, itcould seem that the Universityis fered a valuable opportunity forservice in establishing military drill hereiring the period of the war. There could be difficulties to overcome,of orse, and the work ought to be putader strict Government supervision.To but the lay mind it seems thata nurse in military drill, practiceinapping, trench construction, fieldrittifications and military roads and
bridges would be a good thing. College credit might even be the drill for the courses, or at least the drill could be substituted for the ordinary gym work.
"What has become of the senior sings?" we are asked. They seem to have been relegated to the background along with the student union and the old fashioned two-step.
GOOD-BYES
"The class gets smaller every time we meet," commented a popular professor to his students yesterday. "I don't know how you fellows feel about it, but it seems coldblooded to me the way these men leave for war service with only a few of us to say goodbye and wish them well."
The professor put into words what a good many of us feel. It isn't easy for upperclassmen, and for even freshmen and sophomores, to leave the University and not know whether they will ever meet old friends and visit old haunts again. This is certainly not the time for the light-hearted, good-natured farewells which we say at the close of the normal school year.
A giant farewell reception should have been given for the boys who left for service; but it is too late for that now.
It is not too late for each one of us to go a title out of our way to say a whole-hearted, thoughtful, simple goodbye not only to our intimate friends but likewise to "just acquaintances" who are leaving for service. Such goodbyes mean much to the men who are leaving.
And now Mr. Foster announces that the high cost of board will decrease the enrollment next year. Meaning, of course, that it will be cheaper to join the army and let the Government feed one?
THE KANSAS ENGINEER
Those fellows who wear flannel shirts and slouch hats, and who go unshaved and carry slide-rules have reason to be proud today. "The Kansas Engineer," a publication issued annually by students in the School of Engineering, has burst forth on an expectant world, and the world is pleased.
For "The Kansas Engineer" is quite some publication. It's a big, fat, healthy sort of magazine; with lots of expensive illustrations, and plenty of good-looking reading matter which ought to be hot stuff. Our singular lack of knowledge as to the subtleties of the engineering profession forbids that we comment on that.
But it looks good, boys. Congratulations!
--man set apart, but a man standing on his own feet. But in passing beyond the days of wanton conduct and a disregard for the future, critics observe, has not the youth lost something of value in boyish enthusiasm and spontaneity, in independence? Has not an essential characteristic been displaced by the now prevalent spirit of restraint? Some observers blemma in this tendency an attempt to place old heads upon young shoulders.
Then there is that faculty pest who announces a quiz for the week before finals.
OTHER OPINIONS
The youth of college age is becoming too much engulfed in the practical affairs of the world, in the observation of some authorities keenly interested in present day education. Others have vouchsafed the opinion that the youth of today is a sordid youth, shrinking from the adventurousness of the world and willing to avoid fighting and hard knocks, the struggle of competition, at any price. Either accusation, if proved true, is omnious for the future.
THE COLLEGE YOUTH
The source from which emanated a part of this discussion upon the propensities of twentieth century youth is the annual report of President Graham, of the University of North Carolina, in which he remarks the rapid disappearance of "college local color" and the passing of "juvenile brigandage." "College life," to quote President Graham, "has become more open and less protected and less privileged, and much more like life on the outside. The sort of ethics that permitted good men in college to do what good men outside never did has been practically discarded." In other words, the college man is no longer a
In meeting such skeptical criticism it must be made clear that the college youth of today has lost none of the heritage of his fathers. He has mere natural vent in channels more considerate of his fellow beings. Youth has realized the obligation of man that hisly changed his mode of expression. He denies himself none of the sentiments of his forebears. The truth is that he has developed a wider field for the expression of ennobling emotions, and his frivolous instincts have not been curbed, but have found a existence is not justifiable in itself, but is justified only in the welfare of others. The tendency of modern youth toward a more sane and regular life is not a descent to the commonplace, but a step toward the realization of a higher ideal that the welfare of the world can be advanced only through the spirit of the fellowship and inter-dependence of mankind.—Cornell Daily Sun.
WHEN SENIORS WERE SOPHS
Items from the Daily Kansan Files of Two
Students sign and forward to President Wilson petitions assuring him of the "highest regard for his strong adherence to the upright policy of neutrality, our fullest confidence in his wisdom and ability to maintain this wise course, and our devout gratitude that through the storm of European disaster the United States has so brave and true a leader."
Kansas Aggies gave K. U. her first defeat in baseball of the 1915 season, by a score of five to three. "Shanghai!" Moss was the mound-artist for Kansas. Kansan headline characterizes it as "Moss on Mound."
Henry Holt and Co. announce for publication a book by Prof. Merle Thorpe, of the department of journal untitled "The Coming Newsaper."
Contract is let for the building of the stone bulletin board which now stands at the entrance to the campus between Green Hall and Fraser, H. Whitten, a student who graduated in architectural engineering, is the designer of the bulletin board. The board was presented the University as a memorial by the Class of 1915.
Prof. R. M. Odenen announces that cramming is not harmful—that students may cram for the finals as much they wish and it will not hurt them.
Teddy O'Leary, four-year old brother of Dummy O'Leary, and the "most famous inhabitant of Louisiana street, not even excepting the Chancellor and the Phi Psis", forsakes the Alpha Delta Pis for the Thetas, and chooses Joe Martin for his "special love." He is seen in the swing at the Theta house each afternoon, squeezing her hand.
