CAMPUS BEAUTY
The University is proud of its campus. Daily, efforts are made to overcome practices which tend to destroy the natural beauty of the grounds. The thoughtless student cuts across the lawns and scatters debris along the walks. He is negligent. However, it was not due to negligence that an ugly clap-trap billboard was constructed yesterday across from the bulletin board. The presence of such an eye-sore is a direct violation of a policy to maintain the beauty of the campus.
A COMMON SENSE APPEAL
Doctor Gray won the approval of the students of the University of Kansas with his simple, direct talks in his short religious campaign at the Methodist church. He knows how to look at student problems as the student looks at them, and he is a willing counsellor for all. His appeal for students to consider the fundamental problems of life was well received and will doubtless meet with popular response.
Doctor Gray has made a success of his work in the Grand Avenue Temple in Kansas City. His method appeals to all classes. It is easy for University students to determine the value of this man and the measures which brought success to him.
The student does not want to announce publicly that he is going to enter upon a new life. Doctor Gray does not want him to. All he asks is that the student, when alone, consider the fundamental problems of life and determine for himself the right course.
DAY BY DAY
There is a very materialistic policy to live in the present, not to grieve about the past or worry over the future—just to try to get all one can of joy and improvement out of each day, but also to remember that for all that one gets in this world, either one must pay, or some one else, a double fee. So it is for us, as well, to try to put into each day all that we can, of help and encouragement and joy for others.
MORE BOOSTERS NEEDED
The University Hospital is deserving of less criticism. Most of the knockers took a prejudiced stand against this new institution at the beginning of last year when all students were required to pay a two-dollar hospital fee for the first time. Almost immediately they began making slurring remarks about the inefficiency of the hospital and staff before either had been tried out to any extent.
it seems, however, that these same students are willing to submit to insulation or vaccination, or to treatment of sprains and bruises every now and then. If they secured this attention from a private doctor or hospital they would find that the two-dollar fee wouldn't be a starter.
The youth who wrote, "Quoth the Raven," in a sorority guest book is deserving of some credit at least—he was frank.
What is so rare as a day in February when the legislature appropriates enough money to finish the Administration Building?
There is talk of teaching Kipling in the high schools. Which means that he too will probably lose his popularity within the next generation and go the way of Shakespeare, Browning, and Dryden.
JUST A NAP!
When everything goes criss-cross, when every one with whom you come in contact irritate you unaccountably, when you act as if you were carrying a chip on your shoulder ready to be knocked off, when not one of the seven lessons piled up can be learned, just try taking a nap, with the windows up and the cool, air blowing in. Catch up on some of that lost sleep and see what a different aspect the world has.

AND SO IS THE ONION
The onion differs from the peach.
Few people of the onion screech
In rime or song.
But fortune always makes amends,
And those who are the onion's friends

Women's fashions have it on men's in one way. If a girl's dressmaker makes her dress too long she can bring the waist up around her neck and still be in style, but a man's—well, it just simply "can't be did."

THE HONOR SYSTEM
To many students the honor system is either a dead letter or in force only during examination week, and these people sat through classes all semester long with notebooks and textbooks open. Apparently in their minds there is a difference between dishonestly using performance during a recitation and during an examina- it. It is evident we need a new concept of the honor system vigorously observed this week and next. And next year let's start eat with a broader, clearer ideal—Daily Cardinal.
JES' FILLER
NEVAH Mo'!
This hat-read had
About as much
Honor as a
Half-witted oyster.
He gave his word
That he wouldn't
Crib—and then
He helped himself to
Whatever his
Neighbor had to
Offer.
He said neighbor
Thunk a thought;
Nay, he decided a
Decision.
He switched
Quiz books on the
Pirate and fed
Him up with a
Bunch of junk.
The Prof.
Effervesced when he
wished what this
Genius had written.
He painted "Flunk"
On the quiz-book.
So that's why
This lad
Ain't Cribbin'
No more.
CAMPUS OPINION
Communication must be signed as evidence of good faith but names will not be published.
Editor Kansan;
Owing to the inclement weather a few days ago the quarters which my roommate and I occupy have been rendered uninhabitable by the lack of heat, frozen hair tonic, and toilet water. After considering the matter my roommate and I decided to take up our abode elsewhere.
H. I. C.
Now some mischevious practical joker whose sense of humor is tainted with sublime sinimity and crass stupidity decided to perpetrate a hoax on us. In pursuance of their plutonic design they summoned me over the telephone and informed me that he had been asking a room. They further stated the party talking was Mr. Howard and if I would call number ___ I could talk with a party who had lodging to let students. Having consulted my roommate I called the aforementioned number and told the party at the other end of the line I would like to meet her. She seemed much surprised, not to say shocked, and told me that I was talking to Miss Z. at a certain sorority house.
In the light of the foregoing I deem it incumbent upon myself to apologize to Miss Z., which I forwish do, and in furtherance of the course of action which I have mapped out for the future, challenge, challenge me to meet at McCook Field any night after eight p. m.; to hear me expressin no uncertain terms, my opinion of him and his lik. If the one who caused me to receive my contremetts wishes to take exception to any of the facts set out in the above statement, he may do so but he must first meet me in any contest, short of mortal combat, which I did not inflict who was the cause of my unfortunate experience and hereby inform him that the less he says about it the better.

Which came half way to her knees;
She wore it up to school one day,
When there was quite a breeze.
It made the men all stop and stare
At such a counterpoint.
This meant their stern beats
Because of counter action.

The director of Physical Training at Minnesota is giving the Fresh there, who have overcult in gym, quite a bargain in making up for their extra cuts that are unexcused. The Fresh have to do double work to make up for each cut they have taken over the amount allowed. The director is allowing them to get their work-off on the skating rink. The result is that many Freshmen are seen wielding showels—Ex.
