U 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of Klaus, a graduate student, further than merely printing the news by standing for his position and playing no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be brave; to be wise; to be more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1917 The easiest way to seem good is to be good. -Xenophon. THE REAL ISSUE While we are worrying ourselves over the probable fate of the Permanent Income Bill it would be well for us to keep our eyes open for the things that stand out as the immediate needs of the University, and things which can be obtained from this legislature with the right kind and the right amount of hard work on the part of our students and alumni. The Permanent Income Bill is the ultimate desire of every friend of higher education, but we are too apt, in looking into the rosy promises for the future, to forget our present demands. We cannot hope, at best, to see the Income Amendment written in the Kansas Statutes before 1919, but we can see the middle wing of the Administration Building and a new musical conservatory under construction before school lets out in the spring of 1917. What will the Permanent Income Amendment avail us in 1920 if in the three years intervening the University of Kansas has dropped in the scale of American colleges from one of the first rank to the class of small schools and colleges that are a disgrace to our American system of higher education? The recent trouble in North College when classes and a special recital had to be dismissed because a stiff breeze swayed the building and shook the walls brings only too freshly to our minds the IMMEDIATE NECESSITY of new quarters for the University and its students. The many professors who leave us every year for better paying fields bring to our minds forebly the necessity of a higher scale of wages for our faculty. The hundred other needs that seem paramount at this time are shadowed into oblivion by the greatness of these two needs—new buildings and a higher scale of wages for our faculty. The County Clubs Union is well organized, and their strength is being united with that of our alumni with the idea of bringing to the passage of the Permanent Income Amendment. Let them rather turn their strength to feeding the University before it starve from want of immediate support. Their efforts for the future of K. U. are laudable, but how much greater will be their service to future generations if they build up the University NOW to meet the growing needs of present generations. We cannot afford to push the Permanent Income Amendment entirely out of the field, and when the measure is brought up the Kansan will fight as hard as any for its adoption. But our big fight is for the present. Let every student, every professor, every K. U. alumnus and every friend of higher education put his shoulder to the wheel to get IMMEDIATE results. A Topea woman who had been and dumb ever since she was four years old, regained her speech and hearing at her divorce trial last week. It seems that even the good Lord himself can't keep 'em from talking when they take a notion to. Tonight the Emporia Normals will do what they can to show the weak points in the K. U. basketball squad, and every earnest follower of sport should come out to get a line on both the strong and the weak points, if for no other reason. THE SECOND GAME Emporia will show a strong front to a strong home squad, and the game will not be a question of how big a score we can pile up, as it was last Wednesday. Coach Bill Hargiss of Emporia has practically as large a student body to draw from as has Coach Potsy Clark, and Bill's men have shown that they know how to fight. Of course we expect to win the game by a safe margin, but the weak and strong points of the squad will be brought to the surface in the first real battle of the season. POPULARITY "Gee, old Bob is popular—he gets into everything going—Junior Prom committee —Jayhawk staff —most any number of things—sure fine to be popular," some one was heard to say, and laid all the credit to a streak of good luck. But the secret lay deeper than that. Bob volunteered to help decorate at the last dance; Bob went out and practiced football every day with the scrubs, although he didn't make the team. Any odd jobs most anywhere Bob cheerfully did if he could find the time—so Bob was popular and got into everything. If you crave public attention let it be known that you are starting out to eat three meals a day for a few weeks on any amount under fifty cents a day. THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN Only one more week. Then comes the drag of the final examination and the regrets for past laziness — hours of shivering and deaths unsung by poets—worries and agonies unknown to the death-cell criminal—doubts and fears never felt by the bears on a bullish market—sickness and weakness that o'er-shadows the pangs of seasickness. And it's all because of examinations that may or may not amount to any more than a daily recitation. Is it the knowledge of unpreparedness that makes the student psychically as unstable as the seismograph when he is about to step into a room for an hour or so to air his knowledge of a given course, or is it something in the atmosphere that puts fear in the hearts of even the best prepared that causes the general dread of final examination week? If it is an atmospheric something, what can it be? Of course, it doesn't matter that you have wasted twenty minutes by being a member of the "late" club, for this is the University's main concern. It is also —and in the University punctuality is the exception that proves the rule. But then you are, wrong for, they are, and doesn't appear until six-twenty. He said six, he therefore means six-ten, for he will of course, be late. Still, he might be later. I'll fool him and get there at six-fifteen. "TLL MEET YOU AT SIX" "to do long, say your frined, "tho long." It is a bit incongruous though when you realize we are admittedly forming our habits now for the time when we are out in "the park" to eat or drink, we continue to tardiness when he enters business. Why support the "late" habit? Whereupon your mind goes through a process somewhat as follows: It's just as easy to have the "prompt" habit. It's just as easy to be in earnest when you say I'll be there at six." Geraldine: "I hate to think of my thirtieth birthday." And it's a lot more efficient.— Michigan Daily. A MAN'S IDEAL GIRL In the somewhat hazy mist of my dreams I see my ideal girl. Is she tall or short? What does that matter? Those are only superficial characteristics. Blonde or brunette (who cares?) although there is something "nice" about the girls with fluffy hair and blue eyes which seem to turn gray. Gerald: "Let's not bring up the past."—Chicago Herald. Should she be interested in what I do? An "ideal" girl would be. She must be able to talk—not just amelibly, but to carry on a conversation with the other person. You must be tactful, be able to use the proper quotation with the proper set of circumstances. So that, in the very end, I may be able to join with Anthony Hope in his "Dolly Dialogues." He is certainly a liberal educator."—Exchange. Janiece: "Lois got a telegram from Bill yesterday." Johni: "What did it say?" Johni: "It read—Nose broken in should.
