County Clubs Union, for his untiring, and successful efforts in swinging the Permanent Income Resolution through both houses of the legislature. It took lots of time and work to follow the income bill through all its ups and downs in the state house but Jap was on the job at the right time and won the fight. In doing so he won the admiration of the student body, the chancellor and faculty, and also of the legislators with whom he worked. His personal touch in lobbying for the bill brought forth much favorable comment from supporters and opponents of the bill. Our hats are off to you,Mr. Glasse Great men are like popular rattlemits "hits." Given time they will both kill themselves as far as popular esteem is concerned. CONCENTRATE How many students know how to study? That is, to devote their entire attention to the matter in hand. Concentration is one of the greatest elements of successful studying. To be able to control one's mind, keep it on the subject, and not allow it to drift off to other things, is a wonderful accomplishment. How many students have it? Time is a variable method of measuring study. One person spending two hours on a study, covers a great deal more ground than another, who thinks of other matters while studying, does in four. Concentration then, is the thing to strive for in efficient study. By attending to but one thing at a time, one is able to finish it sooner and have more time for other things. Headline in the K. C. Star—"Might Have Done it here," "The Jayhawkers Made Good Showing in Illinois Meet." After looking over the time made there we believe so too. The fact that students do not check out as many books on fiction from the library as in former years is not due to their intellectual development but to the picture show habit by which they are able to follow the theme of a story with the least mental effort. NATIONS LIKE WOMEN Nations are like women in some respects. Towards no other country have the Japanese diplomats expressed so much love; and towards no other country have the Japanese newspaper shown so much hatred. Love may be blind but all the endearing love notes given out by the Japanese diplomats should not conceal the fact that the press of that country is condemning our government with as much vehemence as some of our pacifist papers are now denouncing Germany.

SAME CONDITION HERE The principles of justice, under which a "funker" is requested to sever diplomatic relations with the University, have always been subject to criticism, and especially so if their unfortunate victim happens to be a conscientious student trying to acquire knowledge is capable of doing. The particular instance which inspires this editorial is the case of an engineering student—a hard-working young man, trying to make his own way through the University—who has been notified (two weeks late, by the way) to depart because he has drawn one "flunk" and two "out" of the semester, not knowing from a class where the majority of the students drew either "flunks" or "cona". But this isn't the point of this editorial, although a system which places emphasis on the number of students "weeded out" instead of on the amount of information imparted, might be subject to question. This young man happens to be under the hands of bosses who wants his education and he wants it badly enough to work for it. He was making his way through the University by spending half the night as a night-watchman and doing janitor work in his spare hours in the day time. Why does not the University allow him to take less work and still continue his studies? In another attempt more work than he is able to accomplish and fail, or leave the University? The University must evidently be run as a purely business proposition without the admixture of sentiment in its dealings with the "flunkers." If a student is a drag on his class, he cannot expect to remain in school, nor do the teachers who are able to advance at a faster rate. But wherein the University itself will suffer when a student, who fails to pass in the normal amount of work, is allowed to take only as much work as he is able to do well, is not so clear. If the University is taking this method of reducing it, the number of students it is violates, the rights of the students who come here in good faith to get an education. If the University cannot give adequate instruction to all who apply for it—if the funds refuse to provide the funds necessary for it—then it ought to admit this condition honestly and accept the results. It limit the number of students to its capacity, care of these students. Let it refuse to admit those who apply after this number has been passed, and then the people will be brought face to face with the concrete fact that the University needs more money and more buildings. This is the only course compatible with ailiary justice practice, and only one which will startle the people out of their indifference to the needs of the University—Minnesota Daily.
