U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of a student further than he/she printing the news from a university library or a university varsity holds; to play no favorities; to be clean, to be cheerful; to be careful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to educate the students of the University. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1917. Cheerfulness is in an excellent wearing waistband. A beautiful weather of the heart." - Samuel Smith COME AGAIN The present week has been a mighty pleasant one for the University, Mr. Merchant, and we hope you too have enjoyed the time spent, on the classical slopes of Mt. Oread, in the guise of a student. Next year you will return, not as a merchant but as a moral Jayhawker. You will come back to renew associations formed the previous year; associations which will have a much broader appeal after twelve months of aging. You are here last year know how you began to itch under the collar as the time for the course drew near this year. You could scarcely wait to board the train. Now after a week's stay you find yourself well repaid, for you have had a week of recreation and yet find your possessed of a lot of new business tips which will prove of inestimable worth in your particular line of endeavor. Several days of life as a student has put new pep in your veins and you are going home well pleased. Now at home there are merchants who need this course, and why not pass the good thing along? Give them a few of the new ideas and fill them with the good old Kansas spirit that you have had pumped into you. Maybe they will get the fever and when the notices go out next spring these merchants, who were somewhat doubtful this year, will board the train with you. And now, once again Mr. Merchant, we're glad you came. The artisan hurries through his work to get to his dinner; the artist hurries through his dinner to get to his work. Y. M. C. A. PLEDGES A few weeks ago the University Y. M. C. A. started out to raise the $3,900 needed to carry on their work this year. They asked $2,000 of this amount from the students, and followed a fair means of getting the money—that of letting the student pledge the amount he would give and making the payment later when he could best do it. These pledges are falling due every day now and the Y. M. is sending out reminders. It should be useless to do more than remind you of your promise. Did those beings who usually sally forth with a poem on spring, see their shadow too? GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP The referee of the Kansas-Missouri series found it necessary to call a foul on the crowd in both games in Robinson gymnasium. Luckily, Captain Willisima of Missouri missed the goal on Tuesday night or the hard-earned victory would have been turn ed into defeat by the lack of sportsmanship on the part of a few rooters. Wednesday night the Tiger captain made the goal, allowing the Jayhawkers to be defeated by nine points instead of eight. Hooting a decision is recognized as a mark of conduct unbecoming to good sportsmanship. It will not change a decision and only causes more harm than good. The officials try to give both sides a square deal and they call fouls as they see them. A foul on the crowd counts as a technical foul on the captain of the home team. The men work hard enough for points without being hand-dicapped by a few over-enthusiastic rooters who attempt to give vent to their enthusiasm in the wrong manner. Quite apropos to Dr. Carlson's lecture on the Biological Significance of Hunger would have been a lecture on the economical significance of hunger. VENTILATION IN FRASER Can we ever hope for any remedy for the ventilation system in Fraser chapel? The seriousness of the question must certainly be admitted by anyone who has attended a lecture or convocation when any number of persons were gathered in the building. The windows are usually down and the doors closed. It does not take an expert to appreciate the condition of the body of air in that room after it has been consumed a few times by 800 persons. A number of students have been heard to say that they could not stand the foul air in the chapel and stayed away from lectures and convocations on that account. Faculty members have made the same complaint but nothing has been attempted to remedy the condition. A word to the Wise: Don't be sure it's a snap course until after the final examination. KEEP ON THE WALK "Keep on the walk" might be a good sign to put at various points over the campus, where we are inclined to save a few steps by short-cuts. It is a natural tendency when late to class or lunch, or when trying to pass a crowd, to cross diagonally across the campus. This will not affect the appearance of the grass if done but once, but when persisted in and kept up by several hundred students, the resultant paths are anything but pleasing to the eye. Keep on the walk. It is only a few steps farther, and the result more than repays the trouble. John Spargo said that the modern railroad differed from the wheelbarrow only in degree of development. Will some man please explain the degree of difference between the wheelbarrow and a Lawrence street car? "I went over to the house last night," said the old grad, "but there was nobody home. The downstairs was deserted and the mastect dog was dead. But I knew what was the matter and passed through the empty rooms and upstairs. I had 'been there' myself and I knew just what this desertion of the ukelele meant. They were all up in the different rooms, their voices cramming the study of a semester's lectures into three hours' time. "I went in for a little while, but some way I seemed out of it. Old grades have their worries, but there is nothing as intense as the suspense of 'what do you suppose he will ask?' So I decided to take a walk, because there didn't seem room for me any more among the political science and economics books, half-finished papers and a miscellany of English classics. NOBODY HOMF "I thought as I walked along about how I used to study for exams, sometimes in the most systematic way possible, and at other times just at random or at the last minute. It all comes in a college course. But in spite of an out-of place feeling, I was glad it was all over. There was some recompense in being through school, for at least I could stroll along while the rest of them worked."—Ohio State Lantern. JES FILLER A certain young man He pondered greatly. NEVAH Mo'!

AN EXPLANATION To the Daily Kansan; for the benefit of "Loyalty" and others who have not taken time to get the facts of the case. I would state that both the High School Basketball Tournament and the Missouri-Kansas Track Meet dates are determined by conditions almost entirely outside the control of the athletic management. The high school basketball date is determined by the committee that assigns dates for the annual meeting of the High School Superintendents and the University officials, and held only on dates satisfactory to the management of Convention Hall, the University of Missouri, and the University of Kansas. I am sure that no one connected with the institution is more put out over the fact that the two dakes共处 man is the management of athletics. W. O. H. OPINIONS There are two kinds of people you know, those who have the only possible opinions and those who have just ordinary every-day opinions. The others are more jovial, but unfortunately we sometimes have no need of Diogens' lantern to them. When we hear of the S. P. U. G.'s and the S. P. H. C.'s and of the warmth with which they are received, we wonder how soon they opinionated portion of the world is attention from these welfare workers. Be our faults and fancies what they may, protect us from the sovereignty of our own opinions—Daily Iowan. In a place like this where there is such a conglomeration of theories and principles, it is so easy to be or not to be. Every class, every kind, almost every person has his individual role in the job, not just by whom you would not eulogize any one of these—forbid that we should ever have to live in accordance with some of them, but we can at least quietly concede others the privilege of doing so. It is fortunate, we think, to acquire a bit of reverence or respect for the things you need, but you should avoid being classed with the people who have the reputation of rushing in where angels fear to tread. "What kind?" asked the clerk. Her memory had failed her and she had no idea what kind it might be. The clerk named acid after acid, seemingly columns of them, but to no avail. She studied and tried her best to remember, then after about five minutes, triumphantly announced: "I want an ounce of acid," stated the skunk up to the desk in the storeroom.
