The Daily Kansan aims to picture students of the University of Kansas; to go further than merely print the news of the university; to verify the veracity holds; to play no roles; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be respectful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.

"Perhaps nothin' not be a lesson to
tell too late."—George Eliot
Adams Adobe.
MAKE IT SOME PARADE
Thursday morning the University of Kansas for the first time in years will undertake a spectacular football parade, with floats, marching groups, autos, and all the features of a carnival! procession.
The measure of its success will determine the opinions of thousands of persons relative to the supply of ginger on the Hill. Outsiders observe such demonstrations keenly. They have no other means of gauging the temper of the student body.
Every school, every class, and, if possible, every department, should be represented in the line of march. We also hope that a number of merchants will have floats. This is customary in many college towns.
If we are going to have a parade next Thursday, we ought not to stop short of a real one.
Our idea of an optimist is a writer who tells us how to tell a real diamond from an imitation, and informs us that the cost of living would advance another 35 per cent, all in the same breath.
DEBATING
December 14 has been **set** as the probable date of the Kansas-Nebraska Debate. Debating has attracted but little attention in the University of Kansas the last few years. But little publicity has been given to it and as a result the attendance at the different debates has been small.
In many other schools this condition is not true. Real school spirit and real enthusiasm is displayed when rival schools meet. The school papers devote a great deal of space to the coming event. The University Orchestras co-operate by playing before and after the debates. The different school societies in many cases actively work towards increasing attendance, as well as inducing men to enter the tryouts. Such action on the part of the different class societies and other organizations of the University of Kansas would do much to place debating at this school on the plane where it once stood.
Nobody fools anybody as much as she thinks she does.
LIFE VS. THEOLOGY
In an editorial on November 15 Lawrence paper attempts to answer the question of the reason for the seeming lack of interest in the churches and church work. The editor argues that in Lawrence, a least, the cause may be traced easily by his practice of preaching their honest conviction from the pulpit regardless of the toe they tread upon.
If the cause for this lack of interest could be thus easily located the
remedy would be simple. But we hardly think that the problem is so
In the first place the number of ministers who preach that kind of sermon is small. In Lawrence there are no preachers; the forest is common to all the churches.
In the second place those churches whose ministers are preaching this kind of sermon have by far the best attendance and show the most signs
Perhaps then, the paper is right and the trouble lies with the preachers. Obviously it is not with the preachers who are endeavoring to make Christianity a vital part of every day life, but rather with those ministers of the gospel who still cling to the old orthodox theology of the church, and to the troubling vital problems which the person who is trying to live a Christ-like life must inevitably encounter in our modern complex civilization.
Don't be witty at the expense of others. Be original.
A QUARTERLY REVIEW
Last week, which came and went much the same as other weeks are wont to do, marked the beginning of the second half of the first semester. The Laws called it the second quarter, but they are a breed entirely apart.
And when we realize that this time is really gone we wonder concerning the past, present and future. What are we now? And will we reform?
Remember that first Sunday night that you arrived in the city. The bunch was there to meet you. If you had no bunch you were met anyway. Next day you stood in line to enroll and watched the annual rain. The second day you were taken in hand by some professor who forced you to put your shirt down, want, and to drop all the courses that you did want. Maybe you pledged to a fraternity at the hour of ten. Maybe not.
Movies and teas were popular the first week. Then you began studying after you had pledged your favorite sisterhood. Maybe not.
You had your first date this week.
You were a regular girl then—dating with some sororis. And so the days and weeks have gone by. Dad has sent considerable cash and you have spent more. Your wardrobe is lackluster, and you need nothing to be "out" around the first of the month.
In general we may summarize:
We have beaten Nebraska and Oklahoma and have had a naughty rally.
A few more profs have gone to other school—selfish creatures—merely because they get salaries instead of wages. We have learned to beat the stringent date rule, which is a pipe dream but important to being in use our knowledge. We know the chancy by sight, and our class president speaks to us right along. In fact, we in a class with him.
Thus it goes. We have accomplish these and hide deep plans for the future. They are.
Be It Herely Resolved by I, Me,
and Myself in joint council assembled,
this steeth day of November
that we do mean and intend to
observe all rules as laid down by our
senate, student council and upper-
classmen; that we will beat Mizzo;
that we will talk big to our repres-
sentation and investment Income
Bill; that we will study harder and
get lower grades.
Be It Further Resolved; that "pep" is still strong and will be ad infinitum. And now thanking the powers that be for all good things, we begin the second half of the semester with our hearts and our fingers crossed.
Jayhawk Squawks
A college man's idea of a moustache is a trifle more hair on the upper lip.
The Kansas elects its editors monthly. On the other hand there are those who appoint themselves editors of the "Campus Opinton" column.
Those who have made dates are loading a pair of six shooters.
Meanwhile the composite student body is loading its gun awaiting the next attack.
Late reports say that there won't be seating room on McCook for more than 15,000 rooters, whereas the original plans were for 16,000. That means they will be for the falcon who come all the way from Columbia to see the game.
But both of the students who didn't buy tickets for the game are standing up for the weather man regardless of whether he predicts for Thanksgiving day.
The Chicago man who says we ought to live on 40 cents a day might come down here and run a student boarding club.
Those who went to Missouri last year are loading cannons.
Debt is like a snowball. It keeps on growing the longer it rolls.
Irreverence and cynicism make up the broad mindedness of fools.

POET'S CORNER
When my farewells I said
Yes—jumped the force into the corn
Dead does it say it my own sweet pet,
I just want you to love me.
I was just real, it would be so
cute and beautiful.
I saw an awesome sight.
For all its stars, were milky red
Instead of milky white.
THE PASSING OF DAISY
turned away with thoughts of you
who had just walked into my room,
wished myself at home again
and was about to leave.
I turned away with thoughts of you
My heart filled full with fear
Between my knees the pale where played
Oh Dalya! well I knew 'twas thus Far up there in the milky way I saw an awesome sight For all its stars were milky red
The white streams for my ear.
No call
I hear distant moan
No more rough and bruised growth
Ft stumbling search for you
And curse you deep for all that cow
sweat.
Oh Dalys! dearer thou to me
Than to the gods thy isles
Who dying sank upon their knees
And he would cry,
Let any say I loved thee not.
Before the altar dres.
Let any say I loved thee not.
I tell them they are liars.
THE COLLEGE IDEA
Every man in college should begin in his freshman year to take part in some college activity outside of his home. You can do that with his college career. By so doing the students become better acquainted with each other and become broader so that they are more nible and better to go out into the business world.
The old idea that a college is a place where one goes to study and nothing more, is generally dying out and the new idea that other activities count for as much as the studies have been taken up most strongly by the men who belong to the different organizations of the college, but the truth of it should be realized by other students as well. Every man should get everything possible out of his college life and in order to do this he must also work than that offered by his courses of study.—The Bachelor.

LEVITY WITH THE GRIND
THE JITNEY
I, come, my love, the jitney
Waits; the nickel's in
My purse. My sparker snaps at all the
Fates, for better or
For worse. Let's jit in joy while life
Is June; five copperys pay
The bill. So come and jitney 'neath
the low-grade
Hill. While all the world is smooth
As glass, while our tires are
Spry, there's bliss in every quart
Of gas, let's hit life on
The high. So come and be my jitney
Queen; a nick is all my
Hoard. Who cares for grief or
Gasoline? Come mount
My trusty Ford.

"Did your friends admire it?" he tenderly inquired.
"What I am for," replied the romantic girl, "is one hour more of moonlight."
