THE NAUGHTY RALLY
Discipline of the offenders in the Naughty Rally is one of those regrettable necessities. Regrettable because the axe probably must fall upon a number who had no malicious intentions. It is hardly to be supposed that those who started the demonstration that morning had primarily in mind the disruption of University routine. They simply wanted to start something, to stir up a little pep, in short, to blow off steam. And it was more in thoughtlessness than in malice that they carried the affair too far. But it is also true that even pep outbursts can be carried too far. And unless breaking up of classes is summarily stopped, the University might as well be converted into an athletic club.
Why not a reform movement for better ventilation in Fraser Chapel during special lectures and convocations? Apparently no effort has been made to remedy this lack of attention to a matter that is all the more vital because of the typhoid possibilities in a crowded hall where the air is bad.
WELCOMING ALUMNI
The University of Kansas will be hosts Nov. 30 to the largest number of alumni that has ever returned to Lawrence at one time before, according to present indications. Many of these alumni have little attraction in Lawrence; they have no relatives in school now; they may have no friend in school whom they can call upon; they may have no fraternity brothers to visit. The welcome these men and women receive will depend upon the efforts put forth by every student in the University. A parade, a smoker, a mixer, a reception, a hundred suggestions can be offered for entertainment. Any that lead to a closer relation between alumi and student should be fostered.
Set aside Thanksgiving day as the time when you will do something for some one beside yourself. Think ahead a few years. What do you want to find when you return for a homecoming and a football game?
When you ask the man who appeared before the disciplinary committee yesterday how calmly he stood the ordeal just think how thoroughly you hate to admit it when you are scared.
THE MATTER OF HEALTH
It is generally conceded that a university man or woman ought to know what he or she should or should not do, and yet with the common sense that the university ought to breed, one paramount inconsistency looms up in the life of the average student. He is primarily unmindful of his health.
He is not willfully unmindful; we do not hold that he enjoys that persistent dark brown flavor clinging to his tongue; he is careless. He seems
to assume that his mind can operate successfully no matter whether he is physically fit.
He forgets that irregular living always demands its toll. Late nights, hasty meals, improper food, bad air, and no exercise go hand-in-hand with lax mental habits, indifference, and moral delinquency.
The university man seldom takes time to check up on the influences that are working to his physical downfall. He is too busy. He admits that he feels rotten, but is indifferent to attempting to remedy his condition. One more day, he figures, will make no difference. Sometimes it does not, but often the morrow brings the doctor and there is a new era of repentance and solemn vows.
Happy go lucky. Sin today and repent tomorrow. That is the college man. Only our athletes feel fit. Why not make a practice of demanding exercise for the over-worked body? Too busy? Bosh! An hour a day will never be missed and the joy-yielding capacity of a healthy body will more than repay for the few minutes taken from loafing and given to profitable exercise.
When a freshman wants to make the upperclassman think he is an old timer here, he refers to Fourteenth as Adams street.
MOTHER
Have you a mother back home? isn't she the best mother in the world and your best friend? If so, don't you think she is worrying about you now when typhoid is stalking near? Wouldn't she appreciate a line or two now and then? Wouldn't she feel better to know that YOUR drinking water isn't contaminated, that the typhoid district is in the other end of town, and that you are feeling fine? Of course the mother is glad to learn that the football team has cared for you so she can appreciate the fun you have at the house. Yes. She is proud that you are president of such and such a class and have pledged your third fraternity. But listen! Don't you really think that she would rather know that you are well and happy than anything else in the world?
Don't think that because you don't write that you have been ill for a week that you are saving her worry. Not at all. Don't let some one else hurt you, yourself, remembering that mother isn't like the neighbors. She cares.
WHO AM I?
"I am more powerful than the com-
bined armies of the world.
"I have destroyed more men than all the wars of the world.
"I am more deadly than bullets and I have wrecked more homes than the mansions in this city."
"I spare no one and I find my victims among the rich and poor alike, the young and the old, the strong and weak—widows and orphans know me.
"I loom up in such proportions that I cast my shadow over every field of labor, from the turning of a grind to the moving of a railway train.
"I massacre thousands upon thousands of wage earners in a year.
"I am relentless. I am everywhere.
In the home, on the street, in the factory;
at railroad crossings and on the sea.
"I bring sickness, degradation and death, yet few seek to avoid me.
Poland needs simplified spelling worse than we do.
The clean-up day enthusiasts would have a cannon Kansas,
"I destroy, crush and maim, yet give nothing."

Education, we are told, is a process of adjustment to environment; the wiser and fuller you engage the implements of culture about you, the better you are educated. Yet the pride of civilization—particularly twentieth century civilization—is its power to stir up within the individual an irresistible desire to cultivate new skills to explore them on paths of thought. On the surface, the urge of education to know thoroughly everything about you clashes with the cry of civilization to advance into another epoch.
The K. C. Star says Kansas won from Nebraska because the team ats in a certain law in Lawrence. All of moves it pays to advertise. or does it?
WHERE AWAY?
The country lad is prone to lean his plow against the tottering rail fence and hie to the moulstrom of the city; he wants a new environment, one which moves faster than the country community, one which hurls itself within a few years from the city. In the spot of pricty The office man pauses in his daily grind to muse over the advantages and the quiet peace of the country; he recalls by instinct the wide expanses of meadow, the great open spaces, and a longing steals his mind. Both the lad and the man are products of a civilization which is deprived of everything, and which is at the same time creating dissatisfaction with everything.
We are always recasting our point of view, always revamping our habits of thought. We are continually trying to adjust ourselves to cultural surroundings, and just as unceasingly trying to twist our surroundings to fulfil our idea of what they ought to be. To civilization falls the task of projecting all of the revised past into the future. Education is the means through which we are you ambitions to become statically educated or are you desirous of energizing yourself with a same dissatisfaction of the state of things? Educated merely, or civilized also?—University of Washington Daily.
Jayhawk Squawks

We have only this to say for the half dozen fellows we saw going down the Hill at 10:20 this morning! We imagine about six bits worth they are knitting sweaters or making a batch of fudge.

"Bill" Piatt, speaker of the day on the program this morning, says that while he never started anything rough in a football game he believed nobody is explicitly. It sounds good to hear some one speak the truth about the matter.
